feat: add non-interactive auth via CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN#32
Merged
Conversation
Bypass the interactive onboarding wizard when CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN is set. On container create, post_install.py runs `claude -p` to populate auth state and sets hasCompletedOnboarding so the TUI starts without the login wizard. Workaround for anthropics/claude-code#8938.

containerEnv bakes values into the image as ENV instructions, visible in docker inspect/history. remoteEnv is set at runtime only. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Handle timeout as expected (claude -p writes config before API call) - Catch FileNotFoundError/OSError if claude is not installed - Check returncode explicitly instead of dead CalledProcessError catch - Guard on ~/.claude.json existence before writing onboarding flag - Replace contextlib.suppress with explicit try/except that logs - Update module docstring and README wording Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
