Problem Statement
Claude Code does not appear to re-read CLAUDE_CODE_CLIENT_CERT when the certificate expires (it instead tries to make a connection, getting ECONNRESET instead).
Proposed Solution
Implement functionality that re-reads CLAUDE_CODE_CLIENT_CERT (and maybe the Private Key) when connections are reset, or on an interval (like with the apiKeyHelper TTL)
Alternative Solutions
Re-starting Claude Code causes Claude Code to re-read the cert, but that doesn't work at scale.
