Mobile app: cloud environment selector allows switching/creating but not editing existing environments

On web (claude.ai/code) and Desktop, the cloud environment selector (cloud icon above the message box) lets you open an existing environment for editing — name, network access level, environment variables, and setup script — via a settings/gear icon.

In the Claude mobile app, the same cloud icon/selector is present and lets you select an existing environment or create a new one, but there is no way to edit an existing environment's settings (in particular, network access / allowed domains).

Impact: On mobile, the only way to change an existing environment's network access (e.g. add a domain to the allowlist) is to either:

  • switch to web/desktop, or
  • create a new environment with the desired settings and remember to select it going forward instead of the original one.

Per the docs (https://code.claude.com/docs/en/cloud-environments#the-default-environment), "On the web, the Desktop app, and the mobile app, sessions use the environment shown in the selector," which implies parity across surfaces — editing seems to be the missing piece on mobile.

Expected: The mobile app's environment selector should offer the same edit affordance (name, network access, environment variables, setup script) as web/Desktop, ideally via a settings/gear icon next to each listed environment.

Environment:

  • Platform: Android
  • Android version: 17
  • Android security patch: 2026-07-05
  • Build: CP2A.260705.006
  • Claude app version: not captured (reporter can add if needed)
