Research direction

Start by running abctl configure claude-code status and verify the CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC=1 setting. Document that Cortex enables this setting and that it can disable Claude Code's nonessential features; done means users can find and understand this behavior.

Description

documentation question

abctl configure claude-code status shows, among other things

CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC=1

We don't document that we do this.
If anyone is using any of the nonessential features of Claude Code, enabling Cortex loses those features, silently.
