Unclear Which environment variable is kept, and under what condition, is not stated.

What

Settings can define environment variables, which are named values passed to programs. Claude Code removes some names that are on a blocklist. It can now keep one specific blocked name when a certain condition is met. Before, every blocked name was removed.

Why

This loosens a rule that strips risky environment variables from settings.
