PR review status

When working on a branch with an open pull request, Claude Code displays a clickable PR link in the footer, such as "PR #446". The link has a colored underline indicating the review state:

• Green: approved
• Yellow: pending review
• Red: changes requested
• Gray: draft

The badge disappears once the pull request merges or closes.

Cmd+click (macOS) or Ctrl+click (Windows/Linux) the link to open the pull request in your browser.

The status refreshes as soon as a git push, or a gh pr command that changes the pull request, such as gh pr create or gh pr merge, succeeds in the session.

Claude Code renders the badge as a hyperlink even when it can't detect hyperlink support in your terminal, which commonly happens over SSH or in tmux. Set FORCE_HYPERLINK=0 to render the badge as plain text.

When you set CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC, Claude Code doesn't check pull request or merge request status.

PR status for GitHub repositories needs a GitHub token. Claude Code finds one based on the remote's host:

• github.com: GH_TOKEN or GITHUB_TOKEN, or the token saved by gh auth login. Without one, the footer shows install gh for PR status when the gh CLI isn't installed, or gh auth login for PR status when it is
• A GitHub Enterprise host set as GH_HOST: GH_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN or GITHUB_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN, or the token saved by gh auth login --hostname <host>. Without one, the footer shows the same hints
• Any other GitHub host: the token saved by gh auth login --hostname <host>. Without one, Claude Code shows no badge and no hint

GitLab merge requests

When you work on a branch with an open GitLab merge request, Claude Code shows a clickable MR !N badge in the footer slot that otherwise holds the GitHub PR link. !N is GitLab's own reference syntax for merge request number N. The colored underline shows the merge request's state:

• Green: GitLab reports the merge request as mergeable
• Yellow: any other open state
• Gray: draft

The badge disappears once the merge request merges or closes.

It refreshes as soon as a git push, or a glab mr command that changes the merge request, such as glab mr create or glab mr merge, succeeds in the session.

To get the badge, you need:

• Claude Code v2.1.234 or later
• A repository remote that points at your GitLab host, either gitlab.com or a self-managed instance
• The glab CLI on your PATH, authenticated with glab auth login

Claude Code ignores glab's token environment variables, such as GITLAB_TOKEN, when it checks status, so you get no badge from an exported token alone. Claude Code also looks for glab and for its login once per session, so restart Claude Code after you install glab or run glab auth login.
