There are no specific environment variables you should use, as you would need to implement this behavior yourself. Sorry if that wasn't clear.
What I meant is that you could omit the version and service from app.yaml for both gcloud and dev_appserver and have your code check if environment variables that you defined are set and if so skip on using the Modules API. You would of course only do this on the local dev server. On production that environment variable check would fail and you would simply use the Modules API.
