Unclear It is not clear what turns this option on, or whether developers can set it themselves.

What

The SDK is a toolkit for running Claude Code from other software. It has a new option, managedSettingsViaInitialize. Managed settings are settings an organization sets for its users. When this option is set, the SDK no longer passes managed settings to Claude Code as a command-line argument.

Why

Managed settings are sent in the first message the SDK exchanges with Claude Code when it starts, instead of being written into the command that launches it.
