Wow, not one mention of the env vars that have a far greater influence on how the models actually work under the hood - https://code.claude.com/docs/en/env-vars
Very important for bedrock deployments and other not-as-standard deployments
Key for how I've deployed it - disable adaptive thinking, max thinking tokens, disable telemetry, etc
Adaptive thinking isn't configurable if you're using 4.7 or higher though, so anybody on modern opus its basically useless.
https://code.claude.com/docs/en/model-config#adaptive-reason...
> Opus 4.7 and later always use adaptive reasoning. The fixed thinking budget mode and CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_ADAPTIVE_THINKING do not apply to them.
Article name: "everything the doc doesn't mention"
You: "they missed this feature that's in the docs !"
You're right that it's an important part of CC's config. But it doesn't fit the article's raison d'être.
