Claude Code on the web doesn't have
ghpre-installed. This adds aSessionStarthook that installs it automatically when running in a remote session, soghcommands work out of the box.The hook is a no-op locally (
CLAUDE_CODE_REMOTEcheck), and skips installation ifghis already present. On first cloud session, it fetches the latest release from the official GitHub CLI repo and installs to~/.local/bin, then persists the PATH update viaCLAUDE_ENV_FILEfor the rest of the session.You'll also need to set
GH_TOKEN(orGITHUB_TOKEN) in Claude Code Web → Settings → Custom Environment, and ensure network access allowsapi.github.comandgithub.com(release assets).
