What
When Claude Code checks whether your login or key works, it now records two outcomes that were previously grouped with others:
A login that fails because your organization does not allow that OAuth sign-in. OAuth is the browser-based "sign in with your account" method. Before, this only counted as a general sign-in failure.
A network error, meaning no answer came back from the server. Before, this was only marked as something worth retrying.
Why
The rest of Claude Code can now tell an organization restriction apart from a wrong credential, and an unreachable network apart from a rejected key. These cases need different fixes: asking an administrator, signing in again, or checking your connection.
