claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix /effort displays 'xhigh' instead of 'max' when CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL=max is set via env var [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The display inconsistency in the /effort command can likely be resolved by updating the settings.json configuration to use a different effort level or by verifying the actual effort behavior despite the display issue.

Guidance

• Verify that the actual effort behavior is indeed max by checking the output or performance of subsequent commands, as the display inconsistency might not affect the functionality.
• Check if there are any other configuration options or environment variables that could be overriding the CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL setting.
• Consider setting the effort level to a different value (e.g., high or xhigh) to see if the display updates correctly, which could help isolate the issue.
• Review the documentation again to ensure that the CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL environment variable is correctly set and recognized by the system.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to configuration and display rather than code functionality.

Notes

The provided information suggests that the issue might be specific to the display of the effort level in the /effort command rather than a functional bug. Therefore, the solution might involve updating the configuration or verifying the actual behavior rather than changing code.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Given the potential display inconsistency, it's recommended to verify the actual effort behavior and consider using a different effort level to test the functionality, rather than relying solely on the display of the /effort command.
