feat: support CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR environment variable #6550
Conversation
- Add CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR to Flag namespace - Add Global.claudeConfigDir() function with proper fallback logic: 1. CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR env var (if set and is a directory) 2. ~/.config/claude (new Claude Code default) 3. ~/.claude (legacy path) - Update system.ts to use dynamic path for CLAUDE.md - Update skill.ts to use dynamic path for skills directory - Add unit tests for claudeConfigDir logic This fixes compatibility with Claude Code v1.0.30+ which changed the default config directory from ~/.claude to ~/.config/claude.

Investigated Bun APIs - Bun.file().exists() returns false for directories, so there is no Bun-native way to check if a path is a directory. The fs.stat approach is necessary and consistent with other directory operations in this file (fs.mkdir, fs.readdir, fs.rm). Implemented by Claude (claude-opus-4-5-thinking).

const xdgPath = process.env.XDG_CONFIG_HOME || path.join(Path.home, ".config")
Whats the purpose of this

I particularly have my XDG vars set to "standard" values, but in theory (and maybe windows?) you could set them to any directory and most linux/macos software "should" honor them
