12
13- Added `fallbackModel` setting to configure up to three fallback models tried in order when the primary model is overloaded or unavailable; `--fallback-model` now also applies to interactive sessions
14- Added glob pattern support in deny rule tool-name position (`"*"` denies all tools); allow rules reject non-MCP globs, and unknown tool names in deny rules warn at startup
15- Hardened cross-session messaging: messages relayed via `SendMessage` from other Claude sessions no longer carry user authority — receivers refuse relayed permission requests, and auto mode blocks them
16- `MAX_THINKING_TOKENS=0`, `--thinking disabled`, and the per-model thinking toggle now disable thinking on models that think by default via the Claude API (3P providers unchanged)
17- Claude Code now retries a turn once on the fallback model when the API rejects an unexpected non-retryable error; auth, rate-limit, request-size, and transport errors still surface immediately
18- `claude update` now announces the target version before downloading instead of going silent
19- `claude agents`: typing a URL into the list now filters to the session whose first prompt contained it
20- Fixed a recurring "image could not be processed" error and extra token usage when an unprocessable image was sent in a session
21- Fixed remote sessions becoming permanently stuck when a brief backend disruption occurred during worker registration at startup
22- Fixed flickering in JetBrains IDE terminals (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc.) on 2026.1+ by enabling synchronized output
23- Fixed Shift+non-ASCII characters (e.g. Shift+ä → Ä) being dropped in terminals using the Kitty keyboard protocol (WezTerm, Ghostty, kitty)
24- Fixed PowerShell command validation occasionally hanging far past its time budget on Windows when a killed process's children held its output pipes
25- Fixed orphaned `claude --bg-pty-host` processes spinning at 100% CPU after the daemon dies while connected on macOS
26- Fixed voice mode requiring `/login` to clear a stale auth check after toggling `/voice`
27- Fixed managed settings with an invalid entry silently disabling enforcement of their remaining valid policies
28- Fixed managed-settings `allowedMcpServers`/`deniedMcpServers` predicates not matching when they use `${VAR}` references
29- Fixed background agent sessions that entered a git worktree crash-looping with "No conversation found" when reopened from `claude agents`
30- Fixed duplicated thinking text in the Ctrl+O transcript view while streaming
31- Fixed `/doctor` showing a contradictory failed "Not inside a remote session" check when run inside a remote session
32- Fixed the cursor sticking at the end of the first line when typing a multiline prompt in the `claude agents` dispatch and reply inputs
33- Fixed blank lines appearing between background agent rows in the task list on terminals without Unicode support

39## 2.1.163
40
41- Added `requiredMinimumVersion` and `requiredMaximumVersion` managed settings — Claude Code refuses to start if its version is outside the allowed range and directs the user to an approved version
42- Added `/plugin list` command to list installed plugins, with `--enabled`/`--disabled` filters
43- Added a "c to copy" shortcut to `/btw` that copies the raw markdown answer to the clipboard, preserving formatting when pasted elsewhere
44- Hooks: Stop and SubagentStop hooks can now return `hookSpecificOutput.additionalContext` to give Claude feedback and keep the turn going without being labeled a hook error
45- Skills: added `\$` escape syntax to include a literal `$` before a digit in command bodies
46- stdio MCP servers now receive the same `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` as hooks/Bash on `--resume`
47- Fixed `claude -p` hanging forever after its final result when a backgrounded command never exits — background shells are now stopped ~5s after the result once stdin closes
48- Fixed `claude -p` failing with "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY required" on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry when `CI=true` and no Anthropic API key is set
49- Fixed bash commands failing under bazel and EDR-protected Go workflows: `$TMPDIR` was overridden to `/tmp/claude-{uid}` for all commands instead of only sandboxed ones (regression in 2.1.154)
50- Fixed Bash commands failing on Windows with "EEXIST: file already exists" on the session-env directory when it has the read-only attribute or is inside OneDrive
51- Fixed org-managed permission rules not applying for the entire session when the managed settings fetch completed during startup on a fresh config directory
52- Fixed background sessions in `claude agents` losing their running background tasks when reattached after a Claude Code update
53- Fixed terminal misalignment and a multi-second hang when exiting the agent view by pressing Esc
54- Fixed clicking Stop on a background-task chip in the desktop app not clearing the chip when the underlying process was already gone
55- Fixed keyboard input becoming permanently unresponsive after a paste operation whose end marker is dropped by the terminal
56- Fixed hook `if: "Bash(...)"` conditions firing on every Bash command containing `$()` or `$VAR`; the pattern now matches against commands inside subshells and backticks too
57- Fixed deny rules on home-directory paths (e.g. `Read(~/Desktop/**)`) not blocking Bash commands that reference the path via `$HOME`
58- Fixed a stray "(no content)" line left in the transcript after closing panel dialogs like /mcp and /plugins
59- Background agent sessions now update to a new Claude Code version in the background, so opening a session after an update no longer waits on a cold restart
60- Clearer descriptions for built-in commands and skills in the / menu
61- The subscription-switch suggestion now shows in the startup announcement slot instead of a toast
62- `claude agents` dispatching from the state-grouped view now starts the session in the directory the agent view was opened from
63
64## 2.1.162
65
66- `claude agents --json` now includes `waitingFor` showing what a waiting session is blocked on (e.g. permission prompt)
67- `--tools`: explicitly listing Grep/Glob now provides the dedicated search tools on native builds with embedded search (previously these names were silently ignored)
68- `/effort` now confirms when your chosen level will persist as the default for new sessions
69- Clicking a slash command in the autocomplete menu now fills it into your prompt instead of running it immediately; press Enter to run
70- Remote Control now shows as a persistent footer pill (with a link to the session) instead of a startup message
71- Renamed Windsurf to Devin Desktop in the `/ide` menu, `/terminal-setup`, and `/scroll-speed`, following the editor's rebrand
72- Fixed a silent startup hang when the config directory is read-only or unwritable — Claude Code now starts with in-memory config and surfaces startup errors instead of showing a blank screen
73- Fixed WebFetch permission rules not being applied to built-in preapproved domains; explicit `WebFetch(domain:...)` deny/ask/allow rules now take precedence over the preapproved-host auto-allow
74- Fixed Windows permission rules never matching when spelled with backslashes (`~\`, `\\server\share`) or case-variant paths, and Read deny rules not hiding files from Glob/Grep results
75- Fixed an interrupt (Esc) sent at the very start of a turn being silently dropped in stream-json/SDK sessions, leaving the turn running with no "Interrupted" feedback
76- Fixed API 400 `no low surrogate in string` errors for classifier side-queries and MCP server descriptions containing emoji near a truncation boundary
77- Fixed MCP per-server `timeout` config values below 1000 ms being floored to a 1-second watchdog that aborted every tool call; sub-1000 ms values are now ignored (falling back to `MCP_TOOL_TIMEOUT` or default), and `claude mcp get` annotates them accordingly
78- Fixed the LSP tool's `workspaceSymbol` operation returning no results; it now accepts a `query` parameter and passes it to the language server
79- Fixed `claude agents` cutting live status text (tool args, replies, prompts, exec output) at 60–120 columns on wide terminals; the status detail now uses the full terminal width
80- Fixed `claude agents` truncating long session names at 40 columns; the name column now grows with terminal width
81- Fixed `claude agents` attach occasionally bouncing straight back to the session list on the first try after a background-service restart
82- Fixed `claude agents` Ctrl+V image paste doing nothing in the dispatch input and the session reply box; pasting with no image now shows a hint
83- Fixed backgrounding a session with ← silently losing the conversation when the background service cannot start; the session stays in the list as a failed row you can wake with Enter
84- Fixed replies from the agents view that fail to send being lost; they are now queued for delivery on the next session start
85- Fixed cross-session messaging (`SendMessage`) silently breaking when `CLAUDE_CODE_TMPDIR` or `$TMPDIR` points at a deep directory
86- Fixed opening a running background session from `claude agents` stalling for 5 seconds before attaching
87- Quieter startup: notices group by severity, and session info and announcements share a single line per launch
88- Startup warnings rewritten to be shorter and clearer, each with a concrete fix
89- Launch-prompt warnings (deep link/pre-filled prompt) now stay pinned below the input until you act instead of scrolling away
90- Failed turns now show a compact warning line instead of a multi-line red error block
91- Improved background service startup and `claude update` verification to wait out endpoint-security scanning of new binaries instead of failing after 5 seconds
92- Background dispatch spawn failures now report the error class name when no errno is available
93- Removed the "Claude in Chrome enabled" and "marketplace installed" startup messages; model auto-updates and the team-onboarding tip now show as quiet notices under the logo
94
95## 2.1.161
96
97- `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` values are now included as labels on metric datapoints, so you can slice usage metrics by custom dimensions like team or repo
98- `claude agents` rows now show `done/total` before the detail when work is fanned out; peek shows the longest-running item
99- `/mcp` now collapses claude.ai connectors you've never signed in to behind a "Show unused connectors" row
100- Parallel tool calls: a failed Bash command no longer cancels other calls in the same batch — each tool returns its own result independently
101- Fullscreen mode: clipboard now uses `wl-copy`/`xclip`/`xsel` on Linux when available, copies to both the clipboard and PRIMARY selection for middle-click paste, and the "hold {key} for native selection" hint now shows the correct key per terminal
102- Fixed the `/effort` dialog, workflow animations, and prompt keyword shimmer not honoring the "Reduce motion" setting
103- Fixed `forceLoginOrgUUID`/`forceLoginMethod` managed-settings policies blocking third-party provider sessions (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, Mantle) alongside the org pin (regression in 2.1.146)
104- Fixed background subagent output corrupting `claude -p` stdout when using `--output-format text` or `json`
105- Fixed `/usage-credits` starting a re-login for Team and Enterprise admins instead of pointing to the organization's usage settings page
106- Fixed `/autofix-pr` reporting "cannot run on the default branch" when the session is inside a git worktree or another repository
107- Fixed `--resume` picker not showing sessions from the current directory when it isn't a git worktree (e.g., jj workspaces)
108- Fixed Windows hooks that invoke bash explicitly (e.g., `/usr/bin/bash script.sh`) failing with "command not found" or "cannot execute binary file"
109- Fixed OpenTelemetry log events (`user_prompt`, `api_request`, `tool_result`, `tool_decision`) being silently dropped when emitted before telemetry initialization completed
110- Fixed `claude mcp` list/get/add printing secrets to the terminal: `${VAR}` references are no longer expanded, and credential headers and URL secrets are redacted
111- Fixed Workflow agents spawned with `isolation: "worktree"` in background sessions being blocked from editing files inside their own worktree
112- Fixed background sessions dispatched from `claude agents` booting on a stale model from the daemon's environment instead of the model in `settings.json`
113- Fixed a potential crash when rendering Write tool results after resuming a session
114- Fixed completed subagents getting stuck showing as running when an error occurs while finalizing their result
115- Fixed `EADDRINUSE` errors from tools that bind Unix sockets under `$TMPDIR` when `CLAUDE_CODE_TMPDIR` is set to a deep path
116- Improved terminal rendering performance by stabilizing the layout engine's JIT compilation profile
117- Improved rendering performance for large file writes
118- [VSCode] Added a tip suggesting disabling terminal GPU acceleration (or running `/terminal-setup`) to fix garbled glyphs
119
120## 2.1.160
121
122- Added a prompt before writing to shell startup files (`.zshenv`, `.zlogin`, `.bash_login`) and `~/.config/git/`, which could otherwise lead to unintended command execution
123- `acceptEdits` mode now prompts before writing build-tool config files that grant code execution (`.npmrc`, `.yarnrc*`, `bunfig.toml`, `.bazelrc`, `.pre-commit-config.yaml`, `.devcontainer/`, etc.)
124- Edit no longer requires a separate Read after viewing a file with `grep`: single-file `grep`/`egrep`/`fgrep` commands now satisfy the read-before-edit check
125- Fixed copy-on-select not writing to the Windows clipboard on WSL — now uses PowerShell interop instead of OSC 52, which terminals like MobaXterm don't support
126- Fixed restoring a completed session from `claude agents` dropping chat history and re-running the original prompt
127- Fixed background sessions re-attached after overnight retire losing their conversation and re-running the original prompt
128- Fixed `claude --bg` occasionally failing with "socket missing" when the background daemon was cold-starting on a loaded machine
129- Fixed an issue on Windows where the directory a background session was started in could not be deleted after `claude rm` until the background daemon exited
130- Fixed background agents that resumed work being shown under Completed in the agents list
131- Fixed `claude agents` freezing for several seconds when returning to the session list due to the auto-updater re-checking on every exit
132- Fixed Esc, arrow keys, and typing becoming unresponsive on Windows when attached to a background session or in the agent view while the host is under heavy CPU load
133- Fixed background agents emitting terminal sync-output markers to terminals that don't support them (Apple Terminal, tmux), causing render artifacts when entering a running agent
134- Fixed mouse wheel scrolling prompt history instead of the transcript right after opening a session from the agents list
135- Fixed CJK IME composition appearing at the bottom-left of the screen instead of at the input caret in the `claude agents` view
136- Fixed valid `file:///C:/...` links being rewritten to a broken path on Windows terminals with hyperlink support
137- Fixed voice mode failing to connect when the project directory or branch name contains non-ASCII or special characters
138- Fixed the auto mode unavailability message on third-party providers (Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry) to point to the `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_AUTO_MODE` opt-in instead of incorrectly blaming the model
139- Fixed `/effort ultracode` incorrectly blaming the dynamic workflows setting when the model cannot run xhigh; ultracode is no longer offered on models that do not support it
140- Fixed model-not-found errors suggesting `--model` when running via the SDK or other hosts where the CLI flag doesn't apply
141- Fixed Claude's past replies disappearing from scrollback when resuming a brief mode session with brief mode turned off
142- Fixed vim mode `p` pasting on the line below instead of at the cursor when the register was yanked with `v$`
143- Improved performance of opening recently-inactive background agent sessions in `claude agents`
144- Improved auto mode classifier latency by reducing reasoning on routine actions, lowering the chance of "could not evaluate this action" blocks
145- Improved background-session teardown (`claude rm`/`stop`, idle reap) to send SIGTERM to running shell subprocesses before SIGKILL, so cleanup handlers run
146- Removed `CLAUDE_CODE_OPUS_4_6_FAST_MODE_OVERRIDE`; the environment variable is now a no-op
147- Removed the JetBrains plugin install suggestion from startup
148- Renamed the dynamic-workflow trigger keyword from `workflow` to `ultracode`. The word "workflow" no longer triggers a run; asking for one in your own words still works. The trigger keyword is highlighted in violet in the prompt input
149
150## 2.1.159
151
152- Internal infrastructure improvements (no user-facing changes)
153
154## 2.1.158
155
156- Auto mode is now available on Bedrock, Vertex, and Foundry for Opus 4.7 and Opus 4.8. Opt in by setting `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_AUTO_MODE=1`
157
158## 2.1.157
159
160- Plugins in `.claude/skills` directories are now automatically loaded, no marketplace required
161- Added `claude plugin init <name>` to scaffold a new plugin in `.claude/skills`
162- Added autocomplete for `/plugin` arguments: subcommands, installed plugin names, and plugins from known marketplaces
163- `claude agents`: the `agent` field in `settings.json` is now honored for dispatched sessions, with `--agent <name>` to override it
164- `EnterWorktree` can now switch between Claude-managed worktrees mid-session
165- `tool_decision` telemetry events now include `tool_parameters` (bash commands, MCP/skill names) when `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1`
166- Worktrees managed by Claude are now left unlocked when the agent finishes, so `git worktree remove`/`prune` can clean them up
167- Fixed unprocessable images (zero-byte, corrupt) attached via paste, MCP, or dialog crashing the request instead of becoming a text placeholder
168- Fixed sandbox network permission prompts appearing in auto and bypass-permissions mode when using the desktop app, IDE extensions, or SDK
169- Fixed `claude agents` completed sessions not retiring when an idle subagent was still parked or had leaked a backgrounded shell
170- Fixed `claude agents` pressing Esc not cancelling a slow "opening…", leaving the list unresponsive
171- Fixed background agent worktrees under `.claude/worktrees/` being orphaned after the 30-day job retention sweep
172- Fixed background sessions re-attached after a sleep/wake not telling the model the correct date
173- Fixed copy-on-select in `claude agents` not reaching the system clipboard inside tmux with `set-clipboard on` (regression in 2.1.153)
174- Fixed `--resume` not reporting background subagents that were running when the previous Claude Code process exited
175- Fixed the `--resume` session picker leaving its contents on the terminal after exiting in fullscreen mode
176- Fixed `--worktree` and `--worktree --tmux` returning to the canonical repo root instead of the current linked worktree
177- Fixed the `/model` picker showing an incorrect "Newer version available" hint when the selected model is already the newest in its family; the pinned-model row now shows the model's description instead of its raw ID
178- Fixed literal markdown markers (backticks, asterisks) appearing in the in-progress message text in fullscreen mode
179- Fixed the terminal freezing after approving the managed-settings security dialog at startup
180- Fixed a rare duplicate line appearing in scrollback after the terminal UI redraws
181- Fixed right-click paste duplicating the clipboard in the VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf integrated terminals
182- WSL: fixed image paste (`alt+v` keybinding), screenshot paste on Windows 11, and added support for dragging images from Windows Explorer
183- Improved performance of long and resumed conversations by eliminating redundant message-rendering recomputations
184- `/terminal-setup` now disables GPU acceleration in VS Code/Cursor/Windsurf integrated terminals to prevent garbled-text rendering
185- The Feature of the Week credit-claim status now appears as a notification in the status area instead of a line above the prompt
186- `claude agents`: slash-command autocomplete in the dispatch input now matches substrings
187- Removed the "bash commands will be sandboxed" startup banner — sandbox status still shows in `/status` and when a command is blocked
188- Removed the "/ide for …" startup hint toast
189- [IDE] Fixed clicking Stop while a background subagent is running not actually stopping it
190- [VSCode] Fixed the fast mode indicator not appearing on Opus 4.8
191- Pressing backspace right after a workflow trigger keyword now dismisses the workflow request (same as alt+w) instead of deleting a character
192- Added a "Workflow keyword trigger" setting in /config to stop the word "workflow" in a prompt from triggering a dynamic workflow
193
194## 2.1.156
195
196- Fixed an issue when using Opus 4.8 where thinking blocks were modified, leading to API errors.
197
198## 2.1.154
199
200- Opus 4.8 is here! Now defaults to high effort · /effort xhigh for your hardest tasks
201- Introducing dynamic workflows: ask Claude to create a workflow and it orchestrates work across tens to hundreds of agents in the background, so you can take on larger, more complex tasks. Run `/workflows` to view your runs
202- Fast mode on Opus 4.8 is now available at a fraction of its previous cost: 2x the standard rate for 2.5x the speed
203- The lean system prompt is now the default for all models except Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus 4.7 and earlier
204- Claude now reserves the multiple-choice question prompt for decisions it genuinely cannot make itself, instead of asking when it already has enough context to proceed
205- `/simplify` now runs a cleanup-only review (reuse, simplification, efficiency, altitude) and applies the fixes, instead of running the full `/code-review --fix` bug-hunting review
206- Renamed the `/effort` slider labels from "Speed"/"Intelligence" to "Faster"/"Smarter" for clarity
207- `claude agents`: type `! <command>` to run a shell command as a background session you can attach to and detach from. Also available as `claude --bg --exec '<command>'`
208- `claude agents`: `/logout` now signs you out instead of being sent to a background session
209- `←←` to open the agents view now works on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, and with telemetry disabled
210- Claude in Chrome: pick which connected browser to use via `/chrome` → "Select browser…", or in-chat when a browser action runs with multiple connected
211- Plugins can now declare `defaultEnabled: false` in `plugin.json` or a marketplace entry; enable them with `/plugin` or `claude plugin enable`. Dependencies of enabled plugins are still enabled automatically
212- The `/plugin` Discover tab now pins plugins whose relevance signals match the current directory with a "suggested for this directory" annotation
213- Streaming tool execution is now always enabled, including when telemetry is disabled or on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry (previously behind a feature flag)
214- Stdio MCP server subprocesses now receive `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` and `CLAUDECODE=1` in their environment
215- `claude mcp list`/`get` now show unapproved `.mcp.json` servers as `⏸ Pending approval` instead of auto-approving and connecting when output is piped
216- `/remote-control` autocomplete now shows "Disconnect Remote Control" when Remote Control is already active
217- Added Claude Opus 4.8 support and 4.7 → 4.8 migration guidance to the `/claude-api` skill
218- Deprecated `CLAUDE_CODE_OPUS_4_6_FAST_MODE_OVERRIDE` (will be removed on 06/01). To use fast mode on Opus 4.6, switch with `/model claude-opus-4-6[1m]` and then `/fast on`
219- Improved the auto-mode classifier's detection of data exfiltration, particularly bulk transfers of repository contents
220- Fixed `rm -rf $HOME` not being blocked as a dangerous path when `HOME` has a trailing slash
221- Fixed `$TMPDIR` resolving to different directories in sandboxed vs unsandboxed Bash commands within the same session
222- Fixed unreadable highlighted-row text in `claude agents` when the Claude Code theme doesn't match the terminal background
223- Fixed background-agent completion notifications triggering premature "out of context" behavior on some 1M-context models
224- Fixed background-session classifier losing the user's goal when a scheduled `/command` fires
225- Fixed pinned background sessions respawning every minute after a Claude Code update, causing repeated agent-start notifications and process churn at idle
226- Fixed background sessions stuck at "blocked", "running", or "working" not retiring after the idle grace period
227- Fixed subagents in background sessions bypassing the worktree-isolation guard and writing to the shared checkout
228- Fixed orphaned `claude --bg-pty-host` processes spinning at 100% CPU after the daemon exits on macOS
229- Fixed number key shortcuts not working for options shown below the divider in option dialogs
230- Fixed `worktree.baseRef: "head"` resolving to the main checkout's HEAD instead of the current worktree's HEAD when spawning subagents or calling `EnterWorktree` from inside a linked worktree
231- Fixed a stray leading space on wrapped lines when the previous line ended exactly at the terminal width
232- Fixed intermittent terminal rendering corruption in VS Code by capping the number of distinct colors the thinking spinner produces
233- Fixed plan file names including `[Image #N]` / `[Pasted text #N]` placeholders when a plan-mode prompt starts with pasted images or text
234- Fixed a phantom expand/click affordance on colored tool output: short ANSI-colored lines that fit on screen no longer show a "ctrl+o to expand" hint
235- Fixed a single invalid `allowedMcpServers`/`deniedMcpServers` entry in managed settings discarding all managed-settings policy; the bad entry is now dropped with a `claude doctor` warning
236- Fixed API 400 errors on models that don't support the effort parameter when `CLAUDE_CODE_ALWAYS_ENABLE_EFFORT` is set
237- Windows: Fixed update failures caused by `claude.exe` being in use showing a generic error instead of telling you to close other sessions and retry
238- Removed the stale "& for background" hint from the shortcuts help panel
239- [VSCode] Auto mode no longer requires the bypass-permissions setting to appear in the mode picker, and a dismissable notice on the new-session screen explains auto mode the first time it's active
240- Fixed the task panel below the prompt showing a stray unselectable "main" row when only a workflow is running
241- Fixed /mcp tools list and tool detail rendering when MCP servers have long or multi-line tool names or long descriptions
242- Fixed the /model picker not showing fast mode pricing on the Default option for API (pay-as-you-go) users when fast mode is on
243- Fixed auto mode incorrectly blocking actions with "could not evaluate this action" when the safety classifier ran out of output tokens while reasoning
244
245## 2.1.153
246
247- Added `skipLfs` option to `github`/`git` plugin marketplace sources to skip Git LFS downloads during clone and update
248- Claude Code now shows a one-time notice when your npm global install can't auto-update; `/doctor` lists the fixes
249- Status line commands now receive `COLUMNS` and `LINES` environment variables so scripts can size output to the terminal width
250- `claude agents`: autocomplete in the dispatch input now suggests native slash commands and bundled skills, not just project skills
251- `claude agents`: PR column now shows `PR #N` for a single PR or `N PRs` for multiple
252- `claude doctor` now shows the result of your last update attempt
253- Combined the separate "needs authentication" startup notifications for MCP servers and connectors into a single message
254- macOS: background agents now appear as "Claude Code" in Privacy & Security and keep their permission grants across upgrades
255- Fixed stateful MCP servers without the optional GET SSE stream reconnect-looping on `tools/list` (regression in v2.1.147)
256- Fixed a regression where a custom API gateway could receive the user's Anthropic OAuth credential instead of the gateway's own token
257- Fixed subagent (Agent tool) frontmatter MCP servers ignoring `--strict-mcp-config`, `--bare`, remote mode, enterprise managed MCP config, and managed-settings MCP server allow/deny policies
258- `--strict-mcp-config` no longer strips inline `mcpServers` from explicitly-passed agent definitions (`--agents` / SDK `agents`), and blocked subagent MCP servers now surface a visible warning
259- Fixed the Windows PowerShell installer reporting "Installation complete!" when installation actually failed
260- Fixed `claude update` installing the latest version instead of the configured release channel's version for npm installations
261- Fixed excessive memory usage (multiple GB) when resuming a session by transcript file path on machines with many stored sessions
262- Fixed `claude agents` and `claude --bg` running on a stale daemon started before binary-takeover support, even after upgrading
263- Fixed a hang where the CLI could fail to exit when stdin was closed without EOF in stream-json mode, leaving a stale session marker behind
264- Fixed malformed `file://` links in Claude's responses not being clickable in the terminal
265- Fixed `claude --help` rendering unwrapped output on terminals narrower than 92 columns
266- Fixed MCP tool progress notifications not rendering in the collapsed tool view
267- Fixed `Agent` tool with `subagent_type: 'claude'` running in an undocumented temporary worktree, which could silently discard outputs written to gitignored paths
268- `/bg` while Claude is responding now continues the response in the background session instead of dropping it
269- Fixed `/btw` keyboard shortcuts becoming unresponsive in background sessions while a task is running
270- Fixed background sessions writing temp files to `$CLAUDE_JOB_DIR` triggering a "sensitive file" permission prompt
271- Fixed recovering a background agent whose working directory was deleted showing a truncated stack trace instead of a clear error message
272- Fixed `EnterWorktree` not being available immediately in background sessions (previously required `ToolSearch` first)
273- Fixed `cmd+k` in iTerm2/Terminal.app not repainting attached background sessions
274- Fixed the IME candidate window appearing at the bottom of the screen instead of next to the input caret in attached background sessions on Windows
275- Fixed background-color bleed when attaching to a background agent from 256-color-only terminals after the agent had rendered file diffs
276- Fixed `/copy` and copy-on-select silently failing to update the system clipboard when attached to a background session inside tmux
277- Fixed opening `claude agents` with Remote Control enabled leaving zombie session entries on the Code tab after exiting
278- Fixed `/rename` in background sessions not updating the session banner immediately
279- Fixed Windows update rollback: if a Windows update fails, Claude Code now restores the original executable by copy and tells you how to recover
280- [VSCode] Fixed Claude Code processes not shutting down cleanly when VS Code closed on Windows, causing false "unclean exit" reports and orphaned MCP servers
281- `/model` now saves your selection as the default for new sessions (matching the IDE). Press `s` in the picker to switch models for the current session only.
282- If you customized the `modelPicker:setAsDefault` keybinding, rename it to `modelPicker:thisSessionOnly` in keybindings.json (the `d` action was replaced by `s`)
283
284## 2.1.152
285
286- `/code-review --fix` now applies review findings to your working tree after the review, surfacing reuse, simplification, and efficiency suggestions; `/simplify` now invokes `/code-review --fix`
287- Skills and slash commands can now set `disallowed-tools` in frontmatter to remove tools from the model while the skill is active
288- Added `/reload-skills` command to re-scan skill directories without restarting the session
289- `SessionStart` hooks can now return `reloadSkills: true` to re-scan skill directories, making skills installed by the hook available in the same session
290- `SessionStart` hooks can now set the session title via `hookSpecificOutput.sessionTitle` on startup and resume
291- Added a `MessageDisplay` hook event that lets hooks transform or hide assistant message text as it is displayed
292- Added `pluginSuggestionMarketplaces` managed setting: admins can allowlist org marketplaces whose plugins may be suggested via context-aware tips
293- `claude plugin marketplace remove` now accepts `--scope user|project|local` for symmetry with `marketplace add`, `install`, and `uninstall`
294- Claude Code now switches to your configured `--fallback-model` for the rest of the session when the primary model is not found, instead of failing every request
295- Auto mode no longer requires opt-in consent
296- Vim mode: `/` in NORMAL mode now opens reverse history search (like Ctrl+R), matching bash/zsh vi-mode
297- The `/usage` breakdown now includes large session files; files are scanned with a streaming read so memory usage stays flat
298- Thinking summaries in the collapsed group now stay readable for at least 3 seconds, render as markdown, and cap at 10 lines (`Ctrl+O` shows the full thinking)
299- In fullscreen mode, the "Thinking for Ns" indicator now counts up live while the model is thinking, and keeps its value if you interrupt mid-thought
300- Simplified the Workflow tool's inline progress display — live agent counts now show only in the persistent workflow status row below the prompt
301- The post-response timer now shows "Waiting for N background agents/workflows to finish" when backgrounded agents or workflows are still running, and reports the cumulative time once their results are processed
302- Added the session entrypoint as an OpenTelemetry metric attribute (`app.entrypoint`, opt-in via `OTEL_METRICS_INCLUDE_ENTRYPOINT=true`)
303- Fixed terminal styling degrading in very long sessions by recycling the renderer's style pool
304- Fixed the sandbox-enabled warning not appearing in condensed startup mode — it now shows in every layout
305- Fixed the loading spinner showing "still thinking"/"almost done thinking" while a tool is running, and reset the thinking status to "thinking" after each tool
306- Fixed focus mode showing a spurious "N messages hidden" count on turns with no hidden activity
307- Fixed clicking a link inside an expanded tool result collapsing the section instead of opening the link
308- Fixed markdown table cell borders inheriting the color of inline code, wrapped continuation lines losing their style, and empty header cells showing a label in the narrow-terminal stacked layout
309- Fixed plugin MCP servers with the same command but different environment variables being incorrectly deduplicated
310- Fixed `/doctor` reporting "marketplace not found" or "plugin not found" for stale `enabledPlugins` entries referencing removed marketplaces or dropped plugins
311- Fixed plugins that track a git branch silently no longer receiving updates after the plugin registry was rebuilt
312- Fixed remote MCP servers failing to connect in Claude Code Remote sessions when the egress proxy is enabled
313- Fixed the effort-change confirmation dialog appearing when the conversation has no messages or when switching between effort levels that resolve to the same underlying value
314- Fixed the Agent tool description referencing an agent list that is never delivered when running with `--bare` or with attachments disabled
315- Fixed a background worker crash in `claude agents` when accepting a stale permission prompt after a subagent was cancelled
316- Fixed `cache_creation_input_tokens` reporting as 0 in transcript and result usage when the API reports cache writes only via the nested `cache_creation` breakdown
317- Fixed the PushNotification tool incorrectly reporting "Mobile push not sent (Remote Control inactive)" in SDK-hosted sessions when Remote Control is enabled
318- Fixed sessions getting stuck after a model or login switch left stale thinking-block signatures in history; now stripped proactively with a retry safety-net
319
320## 2.1.150
321
322- Internal infrastructure improvements (no user-facing changes)
323
324## 2.1.149
325
326- `/usage` now shows a per-category breakdown of what's driving your limits usage — skills, subagents, plugins, and per-MCP-server cost
327- `/diff` detail view can now be scrolled with the keyboard (arrows, `j`/`k`, `PgUp`/`PgDn`, `Space`, `Home`/`End`)
328- Markdown output now renders GFM task list checkboxes (`- [ ] todo` / `- [x] done`) instead of plain bullets
329- Enterprise: added the `allowAllClaudeAiMcps` managed setting to load claude.ai cloud MCP connectors alongside `managed-mcp.json`
330- Fixed a PowerShell permission bypass: built-in `cd` functions (`cd..`, `cd\`, `cd~`, `X:`) changed the working directory undetected, letting a later command read outside the workspace
331- Fixed the sandbox write allowlist in git worktrees covering the entire main repository root instead of only the shared `.git` directory (with `hooks/` and `config` denied)
332- Fixed PowerShell prefix/wildcard allow rules (e.g. `PowerShell(dotnet.exe build *)`) not pre-approving native executables and scripts
333- Fixed a permission-analysis gap where the parser trusted stale variable-tracking values for `PWD`/`OLDPWD`/`DIRSTACK` across `cd`/`pushd`/`popd`
334- Fixed `find` in the Bash tool exhausting the macOS system file/vnode table and crashing the host on large directory trees
335- Fixed the managed-settings approval dialog leaving the terminal frozen after accepting at startup
336- Fixed `/ultraplan` and remote session creation failing with "Could not capture uncommitted changes" when the working tree has no real changes
337- Fixed `otelHeadersHelper` failing silently when the script path contains spaces; helper failures are now reported in `/doctor` and the debug log
338- Fixed the thinking spinner staying amber across tool calls and onto fresh thinking bursts
339- Fixed collapsed Bash output reporting the wrong hidden-line count for outputs with many short lines
340- Fixed slash-command argument-hint clipping trailing typed characters when the hint overflows the input box
341- Fixed argument-hint and progressive arg suggestions not appearing after Tab-completing a skill whose frontmatter `name:` differs from its directory basename
342- Fixed the status bar showing the user's baseline `/effort` setting instead of the effort level applied by skill/agent `effort:` frontmatter
343- Fixed Ctrl+O transcript view freezing at the moment it was opened instead of tailing new messages
344- Fixed editing a recalled prompt-history entry losing the edit when navigating further up/down with arrow keys
345- Fixed `/config` exit summary reporting phantom changes to auto-compact and theme when toggling unrelated settings
346- Fixed `/insights` crashing when cached session-meta files are missing optional fields
347- Fixed malformed PowerShell and History tool calls with missing input being misclassified as reads in transcript collapsing
348- Fixed renaming a Remote Control session from claude.ai or the Claude mobile app not updating the local session name for `claude --resume`
349- Fixed a race where a just-submitted prompt could appear twice in the up-arrow history
350- Fixed tapping the "Jump to bottom" pill in fullscreen mode not dismissing it immediately
351- Improved `/feedback` reports to include the conversation that happened before context compaction, making issues from earlier in long sessions easier to triage
352
353## 2.1.148
354
355- Fixed the Bash tool returning exit code 127 on every command for some users (a regression introduced in 2.1.147)
356
357## 2.1.147
358
359- Pinned background sessions (`Ctrl+T` in `claude agents`) now stay alive when idle, are restarted in place to apply Claude Code updates, and are shed under memory pressure only after non-pinned sessions
360- Renamed `/simplify` to `/code-review`. It now reports correctness bugs at a chosen effort level (e.g., `/code-review high`); pass `--comment` to post findings as inline GitHub PR comments. The old cleanup-and-fix behavior has been removed
361- Improved auto-updater: retries transient network failures, reports specific error categories and OS error codes on failure, and shows the current version when an update fails
362- Improved diff rendering performance for large file edits
363- Prompt history no longer records consecutive duplicate entries — recalling a prompt with arrow-up and submitting it again won't add another copy
364- Fixed enterprise login restrictions (`forceLoginOrgUUID` and `forceLoginMethod` managed-settings) not being enforced against third-party-provider and API-key sessions
365- Fixed `&` in `!` command output displaying as `&amp;`, which broke copy-pasting URLs from commands like `gcloud auth login` on headless machines
366- Fixed unknown slash commands silently doing nothing in headless/SDK mode — they now show an error message
367- Fixed `/help` rendering a broken tab header and showing only one command per page on small terminals when not in fullscreen mode
368- Fixed shell snapshot dropping user functions whose names start with a single underscore, which broke aliases referencing them
369- Fixed plugin agents that declare multiple `Agent(...)` types in `tools:` frontmatter dropping all but the last entry
370- Fixed hook `if` conditions like `PowerShell(git push*)` never matching — only `PowerShell(*)` worked
371- Fixed PowerShell tool dropping output for commands that rely on the default formatter
372- Fixed: on Windows, "Yes, and don't ask again" for a PowerShell script invocation now writes a rule that actually matches on subsequent runs
373- Fixed PowerShell tool failing on Windows with exit code 1 when `pwsh` is installed via winget or the Microsoft Store
374- Fixed `/effort` opening with the slider on the wrong level — it now starts at your current effort
375- Fixed paginating MCP servers dropping resources, templates, and prompts past page 1
376- Fixed full-screen strobing in attached background sessions on Windows Terminal while Claude is streaming
377- Fixed: on Windows, removing a background-job worktree no longer follows NTFS junctions into the main repo
378- Fixed `/background` refusing sessions whose only typed input was a skill or custom slash command
379- Fixed auto mode suppressing `AskUserQuestion` when the user or a skill explicitly relies on it; the auto-mode classifier now sees the user's answers as intent signal
380- Fixed `/theme` "New custom theme" and color editor dialogs not responding to Esc
381- Fixed an uncaught exception at the end of streaming sessions when running via the Agent SDK
382- Fixed a rare hang when waiting for scroll to settle on Windows
383- Fixed stale and doubled rows in the agent view list on Windows when background session results contain wide (CJK) characters
384- Fixed pasted text being delivered to agents as an unreadable `[Pasted text #N]` placeholder instead of the actual content
385- Fixed plugin component counts in `claude plugin details` and `/plugin` being doubled when a plugin's manifest listed paths overlapping its default directories
386- Fixed backgrounded sessions re-prompting for tool permissions you already granted with "don't ask again"
387- Fixed GNOME Terminal right-click and middle-click paste not inserting text
388- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_SUBAGENT_MODEL` not applying to teammate processes spawned by agent teams
389- Fixed slash commands followed by a tab or newline being treated as an unknown command
390- Fixed several spacing and layout glitches in the `/plugin`, `/status`, `/mobile`, `/sandbox`, and `/permissions` menus
391- Fixed stripped images prompting the model to repeatedly re-read media that was no longer present
392
393## 2.1.145
394
395- Added `claude agents --json` to list live Claude sessions as JSON for scripting (tmux-resurrect, status bars, session pickers)
396- Added `agent_id` and `parent_agent_id` attributes to `claude_code.tool` OTEL spans, and fixed trace parenting so background subagent spans nest under the dispatching Agent tool span
397- Status line JSON input now includes GitHub repo and PR information when detected
398- `/plugin` Discover and Browse screens now show a plugin's commands, agents, skills, hooks, and MCP/LSP servers before installation
399- `claude agents` terminal tab title now shows the awaiting-input count so an alt-tabbed window tells you when an agent needs attention
400- Slash command and @-mention suggestion list now supports mouse hover and click in fullscreen mode
401- Stop and SubagentStop hook input now includes `background_tasks` and `session_crons` fields
402- Fixed a permission-prompt bypass where bare variable assignments to non-allowlisted environment variables in Bash commands were auto-approved
403- Fixed MCP prompt slash commands showing raw server validation errors when a required argument is omitted — the error now names the missing argument and shows expected usage
404- Fixed the spinner and elapsed-time display freezing until a keypress after the terminal was resized or refocused
405- Fixed the cross-project resume hint failing in default Windows PowerShell 5.1 — Windows now uses `;` as the command separator
406- Fixed voice push-to-talk not working in the agent view's reply pane
407- Fixed task lists rendering in random order when several tasks are created at once
408- Fixed stale "Failed to install Anthropic marketplace" banner showing when the marketplace is already installed
409- Fixed the PR badge in the footer not updating immediately after `gh pr create` and other PR-state-changing commands run in-session
410- Fixed Agent Teams teammates with non-ASCII names failing every API call due to invalid header encoding
411- Fixed `/review` using a deprecated `projectCards` GraphQL query that errored on repos with Classic Projects
412- Fixed `claude plugin validate` not flagging `skills:` entries that point at a file instead of a directory — the error now suggests the parent directory
413- Fixed an infinite loop where a skill using `context: fork` could repeatedly re-invoke itself instead of running
414- Improved the Read tool to return a truncated first page with a "PARTIAL view" notice instead of a hard error when a whole-file read exceeds the token limit
415
416## 2.1.144
417
418- Added `/resume` support for background sessions — sessions started via `claude --bg` or agent view now appear alongside interactive ones, marked with `bg`
419- Added elapsed duration to background subagent completion notifications (e.g. "Agent completed · 3h 2m 5s")
420- The `/plugin` browse and discover panes now show when a plugin was last updated
421- `/model` now changes the model for the current session only; press `d` in the model picker to set a default for new sessions
422- Renamed "extra usage" to "usage credits" across CLI copy; `/extra-usage` is now `/usage-credits` (old name still works)
423- Fixed startup hanging up to 75s when `api.anthropic.com` is unreachable (captive portal, firewall, VPN issues) — side-channel API calls now time out after 15s
424- Fixed garbled terminal output after a missed window-resize event (e.g. dragging a VS Code split-pane divider) — now self-heals on the next frame instead of requiring Ctrl+L
425- Fixed progressive terminal display corruption (stale/garbled glyphs) that could appear in very long sessions and only cleared on terminal resize or restart
426- Reduced terminal rendering glitches in VS Code by reducing spinner animation color count
427- Fixed macOS background sessions crashing with "exit 1 before init" when the project lives under a Full Disk Access-protected folder (regression in 2.1.143)
428- Fixed an unrecoverable conversation when reading a file whose image extension doesn't match its contents (e.g. HTML saved as .png) — now falls back to text
429- Fewer spurious tool errors during search: `head`/`tail` file views now satisfy the read-before-edit check, and a "no matches" result (exit code 1) from `egrep`, `fgrep`, `git grep`, or `git diff` is no longer reported as a command failure
430- Fixed `/branch` failing with "No conversation to branch" after entering a worktree or in some background sessions
431- Fixed pressing Escape in the AskUserQuestion notes field aborting the turn instead of returning to answer selection
432- Fixed model selection not applying when changed via the IDE model picker or `applyFlagSettings` after startup
433- Resumed sessions now keep the model they were using instead of picking up another session's `/model` choice
434- Fixed Bedrock and Vertex users unable to select "Opus (1M context)" from the `/model` picker (regression in v2.1.129)
435- Fixed remote-session login failing with "Can't access this organization" for users with `forceLoginMethod` and `forceLoginOrgUUID` set
436- Fixed MCP servers with paginated `tools/list` responses only returning the first page, silently dropping tools
437- Fixed MCP images with unsupported MIME types (e.g. SVG) breaking the conversation — now saved to disk and referenced in the tool result
438- Fixed file descriptor exhaustion when a build runs inside a skill directory — non-`.md` files no longer trigger skill reloads
439- Fixed session title being generated from plugin monitor output instead of the user's first prompt
440- Fixed Skill tool failing with permission error in headless mode (regression in v2.1.141)
441- Fixed plugins enabled in your own settings showing "not cached" errors after first load on a fresh machine; plugins enabled only by a project's `.claude/settings.json` now show an actionable `claude plugin install` hint
442- Fixed `claude mcp list` silently reporting no servers when `.mcp.json` can't be parsed (e.g. using VS Code's `"servers"` key instead of `"mcpServers"`) — now shows configuration errors
443- Fixed background side-queries on custom `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` setups and Bedrock Mantle not using Haiku — now falls back correctly when a first-party API key is configured or no Haiku model is set
444- Fixed scrolling in attached background sessions on Windows — PgUp/PgDn, mouse wheel, and Ctrl+O transcript navigation now work
445- Fixed a crash when closing the terminal while attached to a background session
446- Fixed on Windows, pressing ← in `claude agents` leaving the list unresponsive to keyboard input
447- Fixed ghost characters at the left edge when switching panes in Agent View on Windows Terminal with CJK content
448- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve directories added via `/add-dir`
449- Fixed Edit/Write refusing with "background session hasn't isolated its changes yet" right after detaching a session that was already editing in place
450- Fixed `claude respawn <id>` on a stopped background session showing "stopped" instead of running
451- Fixed `/resume` picker not showing sessions forked from a background session
452- Fixed opening a session from `claude agents` or running `claude logs <id>` hanging when the background service is unresponsive — now times out after 10s with a recovery hint
453- Fixed background Bash tasks spawned by subagents staying "Running" in SDK task panels after the process exits
454- Fixed completed or stopped background sessions briefly failing to wake being permanently marked as a startup crash
455- Fixed markdown links in `claude agents` attached sessions rendering as plain text instead of clickable hyperlinks
456- Fixed custom `spinnerVerbs` applying to the post-turn duration message — past-tense built-ins like "Worked for 5s" are restored there
457- `claude agents` / `--bg` rejection messages now name the specific gate (non-TTY, env var, or setting) instead of a generic message
458- `claude --bg --name <label>` now echoes the name in the post-spawn confirmation
459- `claude agents`: renaming a background session with Ctrl+R now updates the attached session's banner immediately
460- Background session worktree isolation guard now applies for non-git VCS users with `WorktreeCreate` hooks configured
461- Plugin marketplace add/update now respects `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS`
462- `/plugin` now returns to the Installed list after enabling, disabling, or uninstalling a plugin
463- `/doctor` now shows an exec-form example when a command hook is missing the `command` field
464- Skill-listing truncation is no longer shown as a startup notification — run `/doctor` for the full breakdown
465- Improved recovery from rare pre-response stream stalls — now retries streaming once instead of falling back to a slower non-streaming request
466- Improved SDK/headless MCP startup: pre-wait now overlaps startup instead of blocking before the first turn (up to 2s faster with slow MCP servers)
467- The post-survey follow-up hint now appears after every non-dismiss survey response with context-aware copy, making it easier to share more detail via /feedback.
468
469## 2.1.143
470
471- Added plugin dependency enforcement: `claude plugin disable` now refuses when another enabled plugin depends on the target (with a copy-pasteable disable-chain hint), and `claude plugin enable` force-enables transitive dependencies
472- Added projected context cost (per-turn and per-invocation token estimates) to the `/plugin` marketplace browse pane
473- Added `worktree.bgIsolation: "none"` setting to let background sessions edit the working copy directly without `EnterWorktree`, for repos where worktrees are impractical
474- PowerShell tool now passes `-ExecutionPolicy Bypass`. Opt out with `CLAUDE_CODE_POWERSHELL_RESPECT_EXECUTION_POLICY=1`
475- Background sessions now preserve the model and effort level you set after waking from idle
476- Shift+Tab in attached agent sessions now includes auto mode in the cycle
477- Fixed a corrupt `.credentials.json` with a non-array `scopes` value hanging the CLI on startup or silently aborting OAuth token refresh
478- Fixed right-click paste in `claude agents` on Windows Terminal and WSL
479- Fixed stop hooks that block repeatedly looping forever — the turn now ends with a warning after 8 consecutive blocks (override via `CLAUDE_CODE_STOP_HOOK_BLOCK_CAP`)
480- Fixed Esc/Ctrl+C not cancelling a pending `/loop` wakeup while Claude is idle between iterations
481- Fixed `/goal` evaluator firing while background shells or delegated subagents are still running
482- Fixed `NO_COLOR`/`FORCE_COLOR` in settings.json `env` stripping Claude Code's own UI colors — they now apply to subprocesses only
483- Fixed agent view spawning repeated PowerShell processes on Windows when listing sessions
484- Fixed `/bg` without a prompt sending "continue" to the forked session — the fork now waits for input
485- Fixed `--agent <name>` not finding plugin-contributed agents without the `plugin:` prefix
486- Fixed deleting a session from agent view not removing its transcript file
487- Fixed stale-fragment rendering when scrolling in attached background sessions on Windows Terminal
488- Fixed background agents false-positive worker-stall detection storm after host sleep or macOS App Nap
489- Fixed 5xx error messages pointing at status.claude.com instead of naming the configured gateway or cloud provider
490- The PowerShell tool is now enabled by default on Windows for Bedrock, Vertex, and Foundry users. Opt out with `CLAUDE_CODE_USE_POWERSHELL_TOOL=0`.
491- `claude agents` now accepts `--add-dir`, `--settings`, `--mcp-config`, and `--plugin-dir` and applies them to the dashboard and to background sessions dispatched from it
492- `claude agents` accepts `--permission-mode`, `--model`, `--effort`, and `--dangerously-skip-permissions` to set defaults for sessions dispatched from the view
493- `claude --bg --dangerously-skip-permissions` now persists across retire→wake
494- Fixed background sessions silently capturing IDE file references into the warm spare's input, which caused the reference to be prepended to the next prompt dispatched from `claude agents`
495- Worktree cleanup no longer falls back to `rm -rf` when `git worktree remove` fails, preventing loss of gitignored or in-progress files
496- Fixed background-job sessions on macOS getting "Operation not permitted" errors when reading files under `~/Documents`, `~/Desktop`, or `~/Downloads`, even with Full Disk Access granted.
497- `/bg` now preserves `--mcp-config`, `--settings`, `--add-dir`, `--plugin-dir`, and `--strict-mcp-config`, so backgrounded sessions keep their MCP servers and settings across respawn.
498- Background sessions launched from `claude agents` now honor `permissions.defaultMode` from settings.json (was previously overridden to auto mode)
499- Fixed: on Windows, pressing ← in `claude agents` while a response was streaming could leave the agents list unresponsive to all input
500- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve `--fallback-model`, so backgrounded workers degrade to the fallback model on overload instead of hard-failing.
501- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve `--allow-dangerously-skip-permissions`, so the forked worker keeps bypass-permissions available in its Shift+Tab cycle.
502- Fixed: background daemon spawn now falls back to the running binary when the `~/.local/bin/claude` launcher is missing or non-executable
503- Fixed `claude agents --allow-dangerously-skip-permissions` defaulting dispatched sessions to bypass mode instead of making it available in the permission cycle
504
505## 2.1.142
506
507- Added new `claude agents` flags: `--add-dir`, `--settings`, `--mcp-config`, `--plugin-dir`, `--permission-mode`, `--model`, `--effort`, and `--dangerously-skip-permissions` to configure dispatched background sessions
508- Fast mode now uses Opus 4.7 by default (previously Opus 4.6). Set `CLAUDE_CODE_OPUS_4_6_FAST_MODE_OVERRIDE=1` to pin fast mode to Opus 4.6
509- Plugins with a root-level `SKILL.md` and no `skills/` subdirectory are now surfaced as a skill
510- The `/plugin` details pane and `claude plugin details` now show LSP servers a plugin provides
511- `/web-setup` warns before replacing an existing GitHub App connection
512- Fixed `MCP_TOOL_TIMEOUT` not raising the per-request fetch timeout for remote HTTP and SSE MCP servers, which capped tool calls at 60 seconds regardless of the configured value
513- Fixed background sessions not recognizing pre-existing git worktrees, blocking Edit while EnterWorktree refused to create a duplicate
514- Fixed background sessions disappearing and daemon reconnect failing after macOS sleep/wake — the daemon now detects clock jumps instead of treating them as elapsed idle time
515- Fixed daemon not exiting cleanly after the binary is upgraded (e.g. `brew upgrade`), causing dispatched agents to crash-loop on the deleted path
516- Fixed background agents crash-looping when the Claude-in-Chrome extension is connected without a shared tab
517- Fixed clicking links in an attached `claude agents` session — the background worker's headless browser shim no longer applies while attached
518- Fixed `claude agents` "v to open in editor" using the daemon's default editor instead of your shell's `$EDITOR`/`$VISUAL`
519- Fixed `claude agents` deadlocking on Windows with network-drive working directories; Ctrl+C now works during startup
520- Fixed background-color bleed when attaching to a `claude agents` session from Apple Terminal or other 256-color-only terminals
521- Fixed `claude --bg --dangerously-skip-permissions` not persisting across retire/wake
522- Fixed session titles being derived from the URL when the first message is a link
523- Fixed redundant `set_model` requests from remote clients injecting duplicate `/model` breadcrumbs into the transcript
524- Fixed plugins using `skills: ["./"]` showing a false "path escapes plugin directory" error
525- Fixed plugin cache cleanup deleting the active plugin version directory when no installation metadata is present
526- Fixed `/plugin` browse pane showing "0 installs" for newly published plugins
527- Fixed plugin advisories not naming every `plugin.json` key that shadows a default folder
528- Improved reactive compaction: the first summarize attempt now seeds from the original request's overflow size, avoiding a wasted near-full-context retry
529- Improved hook configuration error: configuring a prompt- or agent-type hook for `SessionStart`/`Setup`/`SubagentStart` now shows a clear "use a command-type hook instead" error
530- Removed stale `/model claude-sonnet-4-20250514` suggestion from Usage Policy refusal messages
531
532## 2.1.141
533
534- Added `terminalSequence` field to hook JSON output so hooks can emit desktop notifications, window titles, and bells without a controlling terminal
535- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS` to clone GitHub plugin sources over HTTPS instead of SSH, for environments without a GitHub SSH key
536- Added `ANTHROPIC_WORKSPACE_ID` environment variable for workload identity federation — scopes the minted token to a specific workspace when the federation rule covers more than one
537- Added `claude agents --cwd <path>` to scope the session list to a directory
538- `/feedback` can now include recent sessions (last 24 hours or 7 days) for issues spanning more than the current session

542- Background agents launched via `/bg` or `←←` now preserve the current permission mode instead of reverting to default
543- `claude agents`: agents that finish work but leave a background shell running now move to Completed instead of staying under Working
544- Improved spinner feedback during long thinking periods — the spinner now warms to amber after 10 seconds to signal Claude is still working
545- Improved plugin menu navigation: `→`/Tab switch tabs, `↑` moves to the tab strip, and tab headers and search box are clickable in fullscreen mode
546- Fixed background side-queries sending an unavailable Haiku model ID on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry/gateway when no `ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL` override is set — now falls back to the main-loop model
547- Fixed `claude daemon status` and `/doctor` on Windows throwing when the daemon pipe key file is locked or unreadable — now shows the underlying error instead of an opaque failure
548- Fixed `claude agents` showing the agent-type list instead of the dashboard when launched through a wrapper that adds flags
549- Fixed `claude agents` opening a crashed session firing redundant dispatches when the working directory was deleted
550- Fixed background jobs on a custom `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` gateway not getting auto-named — the namer now uses the main model when no Haiku model is configured

564- Fixed multi-line statusline output dropping or corrupting rows when any line exceeds terminal width
565- Fixed light-ansi theme using invisible white for diff context lines on light backgrounds — now uses black
566- Fixed error overlay dumping minified bundle source that hid the original error message
567- Fixed pressing Enter after typing a feedback survey rating digit submitting it as a chat message instead of the rating
568- Fixed pressing `x` on a selected subagent in the agent panel typing into the prompt instead of stopping the agent
569- Fixed session title being derived from plugin monitor notifications before the user's first prompt
570- Fixed "Allowed by PermissionRequest hook" repeating once per tool call under a collapsed read/search group
571- Fixed `/tui` silently dropping running background shells and subagents — now refuses and asks to wait for them to finish

573- Fixed `/mcp` server list not keeping the focused server visible in short terminals in fullscreen mode
574- Fixed redaction in `/feedback` bundles producing invalid JSON for quoted values like session IDs
575- Fixed desktop and third-party provider sessions incorrectly inheriting `apiKeyHelper`/`ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` from host managed-settings
576- Fixed early analytics events being silently dropped when fired before logger initialization
577- Fixed `claude plugin install` failing for plugins whose marketplace `ref` no longer exists upstream when a `sha` is also pinned
578- Fixed plugin details pane showing 0 MCP servers for plugins that declare them via `.mcp.json`
579- Fixed plugin MCP servers with unset config variables showing a generic connection failure instead of a "config issue" message with a fix-it hint; malformed `.mcp.json` entries no longer drop other MCP servers
580- Fixed MCP server configs using POSIX shell parameter expansions (e.g. `${var%pattern}`) being incorrectly flagged as missing environment variables
581- Fixed MCP HTTP/SSE servers returning 403 on connect showing as "failed" instead of "needs auth"
582- Fixed remote MCP servers disconnecting unnecessarily when the optional server-events stream failed to reconnect — tool calls continue over POST
583- Fixed Remote Control MCP connectors all failing with 401 when the worker session token rotated mid-session
584- Fixed Remote Control automatically re-enrolling a trusted device when the server rejects a stale token, instead of looping through `/login`
585- Fixed a race where early OTel spans could be silently dropped in SDK/headless mode with beta tracing enabled

588- Fixed SDK "Claude Code native binary not found" on Linux when both glibc and musl platform packages are installed
589- Bedrock: `awsCredentialExport` now always runs when configured instead of being skipped when ambient AWS credentials resolve, fixing auth for cross-account access
590- [VSCode] Fixed in-chat mic showing no feedback when the microphone produced only silence — now shows "No audio detected"
591- [VSCode] Voice mode: the WSL error now suggests installing `sox libsox-fmt-pulse` for WSLg users
592- `claude agents`: launching a session no longer fails when the pre-warmed background worker is unhealthy — now falls back to a fresh launch
593- `claude agents` no longer shows empty placeholder sessions left over from backgrounding a fresh REPL, and shows onboarding text when entered via ← with no other agents
594- Empty idle background sessions left over from `←` are now automatically retired by the daemon after 5 minutes
595
596## 2.1.140
597
598- Improved Agent tool `subagent_type` matching to accept case- and separator-insensitive values (e.g. `"Code Reviewer"` resolves to `code-reviewer`)
599- Updated agent color palette
600- Fixed `/goal` silently hanging when `disableAllHooks` or `allowManagedHooksOnly` is set — now shows a clear message instead of an indicator that never resolves
601- Fixed a regression in settings hot-reload where symlinked settings files caused misattributed change events and spurious `ConfigChange` hooks
602- Fixed `claude --bg` failing with "connection dropped mid-request" when the background service was about to idle-exit

609- Fixed native terminal cursor not staying at the input caret when the terminal loses focus
610- Plugins now warn when a default component folder (e.g. `commands/`) is silently ignored because `plugin.json` sets the matching key. Shown in `/doctor`, `claude plugin list`, and `/plugin`.
611
612## 2.1.139
613
614- Added agent view (Research Preview): a single list of every Claude Code session — running, blocked on you, or done. Run `claude agents` to get started. See https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-view
615- Added `/goal` command: set a completion condition and Claude keeps working across turns until it's met. Works in interactive, `-p`, and Remote Control. Shows live elapsed/turns/tokens as an overlay panel
616- Added `/scroll-speed` command to tune mouse wheel scroll speed with a live preview
617- Added `claude plugin details <name>` to show a plugin's component inventory and projected per-session token cost
618- Added transcript view navigation: `?` for keyboard shortcuts, `{`/`}` to jump between user prompts, `v` to toggle shortcut panel
619- Added hook `args: string[]` field (exec form) that spawns the command directly without a shell, so path placeholders never need quoting
620- Added hook `continueOnBlock` config option for `PostToolUse` — set to `true` to feed the hook's rejection reason back to Claude and continue the turn
621- MCP stdio servers now receive `CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR` in their environment, matching hooks. Plugin configs can reference `${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR}` in commands
622- Compaction prompt now asks the model to preserve sensitive user instructions

627- `/context` now shows the providing plugin's name for plugin-sourced skills
628- Remote MCP server reconnect retry on transient failures is now enabled for all users
629- API requests from subagents now carry `x-claude-code-agent-id` / `x-claude-code-parent-agent-id` headers, and `claude_code.llm_request` OTEL spans include `agent_id` / `parent_agent_id` attributes
630- Remote Control, `/schedule`, claude.ai MCP connectors, and notification preferences are now disabled when `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` / `apiKeyHelper` / `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` is set, even if a Claude.ai login also exists. Unset the API key to use these features
631- Fixed a deadlock where expired credentials and the `forceRemoteSettingsRefresh` policy setting blocked `claude auth login`/`logout`/`status` with no way to recover
632- Fixed `autoAllowBashIfSandboxed` not auto-approving commands with shell expansions like `$VAR` and `$(cmd)`
633- Fixed a bug where a hook writing to the terminal could corrupt an on-screen interactive prompt; hooks now run without terminal access
634- Fixed unbounded memory growth when an HTTP/SSE MCP server streams non-protocol data — response bodies now capped at 16 MB per SSE frame
635- Fixed `Skill(name *)` permission rules — the wildcard form now works as a prefix match, matching `Bash(ls *)` behavior
636- Fixed settings hot-reload not detecting edits to symlinked `~/.claude/settings.json`

638- Fixed `/model` picker "Default" row not reflecting `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL`/`ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL` overrides
639- Fixed spurious "stream idle timeout" 5 minutes after a response completed, caused by the watchdog timer not being cleared on stream cancellation
640- Fixed silent `exit 1` when 10+ MCP servers are configured and the cache directory is unwritable — the error message now includes the underlying cause
641- Fixed a typing cursor blinking on tab names, list pointers, and select rows in dialogs
642- Fixed transcript view letter shortcuts not working after mouse click
643- Fixed Bash-mode up-arrow history repeating the first entry and clobbering the in-progress draft
644- Fixed pasting or dropping multiple images only inserting the last one

646- Fixed model picker showing a redundant "Current model" row for third-party users whose model is set to the `opus` alias
647- Fixed legacy Opus picker entry on PAYG 3P providers resolving to the same model as the default entry
648- Fixed mouse wheel scrolling speed in Cursor and VS Code 1.92–1.104; the trackpad now scrolls at a steady rate and the mouse wheel keeps ~3 lines per notch
649- Fixed scroll behavior in Windows Terminal and VS Code when attached to background sessions
650- Fixed MCP resources from disconnected servers lingering in `@server:` autocomplete
651- Fixed two-file diff snippets over-reporting the number of truncated lines by one

675- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FEEDBACK_SURVEY_FOR_OTEL` to re-enable the session quality survey for enterprises capturing responses through OpenTelemetry
676- Added `settings.autoMode.hard_deny` for auto mode classifier rules that block unconditionally regardless of user intent or allow exceptions

680- Fixed an API error (400) when extended thinking emitted a redacted thinking block after a tool call
681- Fixed `--resume` / `--continue` not finding sessions when the project path contains underscores
682- Fixed plan mode not blocking file writes when a matching `Edit(...)` allow rule exists

686- Fixed colors appearing at wrong positions in bash command output and markdown code blocks
687- Fixed ReasonML diffs rendering corrupted "undefined" text artifacts at word-diff boundaries
688- Fixed worktree exit dialog warning about uncommitted files in the wrong directory after worktree removal

699- Fixed trailing whitespace in copied terminal output during streaming
700- Fixed plugin uninstall and enable/disable not matching slugs case-insensitively

724- Fixed MCP tool results being invisible when the server returns content blocks
725- Improved error message when `--worktree` collides with an existing or stale worktree
726- Changed plugin marketplace removal key to `d` (matching delete elsewhere) instead of `r` which collided with retry
727
728## 2.1.133
729
730- Added `worktree.baseRef` setting (`fresh` | `head`) to choose whether `--worktree`, `EnterWorktree`, and agent-isolation worktrees branch from `origin/<default>` or local `HEAD`. **Note:** the default `fresh` changes `EnterWorktree`'s base back to `origin/<default>` (it has been local `HEAD` since 2.1.128) — set `worktree.baseRef: "head"` to keep unpushed commits in new worktrees
731- Added `sandbox.bwrapPath` and `sandbox.socatPath` managed settings (Linux/WSL) to specify custom bubblewrap and socat binary locations
732- Added `parentSettingsBehavior` admin-tier key (`'first-wins' | 'merge'`) to let admins opt SDK `managedSettings` (parent tier) into the policy merge
733- Hooks now receive the active effort level via the `effort.level` JSON input field and the `$CLAUDE_EFFORT` environment variable, and Bash tool commands can read `$CLAUDE_EFFORT`

739- Fixed pressing Esc during conversation compaction showing a spurious "Error compacting conversation" notification
740- Fixed `HTTP(S)_PROXY` / `NO_PROXY` / mTLS not being respected for the full MCP OAuth flow including discovery, dynamic client registration, token exchange, and token refresh
741- Fixed Read/Write/Edit being denied on mapped network drives passed via `--add-dir` / SDK `additionalDirectories`
742- Fixed Remote Control stop/interrupt from claude.ai not fully canceling the CLI session the same way local Esc does, causing queued messages to never advance after interrupting a stuck tool or prompt
743- Fixed `/effort` in one session unexpectedly changing the effort level of other concurrent sessions, and a related issue where an IDE effort change could be silently dropped
744- Fixed subagents not discovering project, user, or plugin skills via the Skill tool
745- `claude --help` now lists `--remote-control` alongside `--remote-control-session-name-prefix`
746- [VSCode] Fixed `claudeCode.claudeProcessWrapper` failing with "Unsupported platform" when the extension build doesn't bundle a Claude binary
747
748## 2.1.132
749
750- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` environment variable to the Bash tool subprocess environment, matching the `session_id` passed to hooks
751- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_ALTERNATE_SCREEN=1` env var to opt out of the fullscreen alternate-screen renderer and keep the conversation in the terminal's native scrollback
752- Added a "Pasting…" footer hint while a Ctrl+V image paste is being read from the clipboard
753- Fixed external SIGINT (e.g. IDE stop button, `kill -INT`) not running graceful shutdown — terminal modes are now restored and the `--resume` hint is printed instead of an abrupt exit
754- Fixed an uncaught exception when the terminal is closed or SSH disconnects mid-session under the native build
755- Fixed `--resume` failing with `no low surrogate in string` when a tool error truncation split an emoji; pre-corrupted sessions are sanitized on load
756- Fixed `--permission-mode` flag being ignored when resuming a plan-mode session with `-p --continue`/`--resume`, and plan mode not being re-applied after `ExitPlanMode` within the same session
757- Fixed fullscreen mode showing a blank screen after laptop sleep/wake or Ctrl+Z/`fg` until the next keystroke or stream output
758- Fixed cursor landing mid-grapheme on Ctrl+E/A/K/U/arrow keys when an Indic conjunct or ZWJ emoji wraps across lines
759- Fixed vim operators corrupting text containing decomposed (NFD) accented characters
760- Fixed pasting text starting with `/` silently swallowing the input or triggering an unknown-command reply
761- Fixed pasting dumping stray escape sequences into the prompt when focus events or mouse-tracking reports interleave with the bracketed paste
762- Fixed mouse wheel scrolling being too fast in Cursor and VS Code 1.92–1.104 due to an upstream xterm.js bug
763- Fixed scroll-wheel handling in JetBrains IDE 2025.2 terminals (spurious arrow keys, wrong-direction events, runaway acceleration)
764- Fixed `/usage` Ctrl+S hanging when copying the stats screenshot to the clipboard on Linux/X11
765- Fixed `/terminal-setup` showing a contradictory error in Windows Terminal — Shift+Enter is natively supported there
766- Fixed `/effort` picker not reflecting the `CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL` env var override
767- Fixed `/status` showing the wrong default model for some users
768- Fixed slash command autocomplete popup being capped at ~3–5 visible commands instead of scaling with terminal height
769- Fixed statusline `context_window` token counts reflecting cumulative session totals instead of current context usage
770- Fixed Alt+T (thinking toggle) not working on macOS terminals without "Option as Meta" enabled (iTerm2, Terminal.app defaults)
771- Fixed dead keyboard input on Windows after re-opening a background session from `claude agents`
772- Fixed unbounded memory growth (10GB+ RSS) when a stdio MCP server writes non-protocol data to stdout
773- Fixed MCP servers that connect but fail `tools/list` silently showing 0 tools — they now retry once and show "connected · tools fetch failed" in `/mcp`
774- Fixed unauthorized claude.ai MCP connectors showing as "failed" instead of "needs auth", and headless `-p` mode retrying non-transient 4xx connection failures
775- Improved visual consistency in slash command dialogs and `/login`, `/upgrade`, `/extra-usage` dialog spacing
776- Updated the `/tui fullscreen` startup banner to describe additional renderer benefits (lower memory usage, mouse support, auto-copy on select)
777- Fixed Bedrock and Vertex 400 errors when `ENABLE_PROMPT_CACHING_1H` is set
778
779## 2.1.131
780

783
784## 2.1.129
785
786- Added `--plugin-url <url>` flag to fetch a plugin `.zip` archive from a URL for the current session
787- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_FORCE_SYNC_OUTPUT=1` env var to force-enable synchronized output on terminals that auto-detection misses (e.g. Emacs `eat`)
788- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_PACKAGE_MANAGER_AUTO_UPDATE`: when set on Homebrew or WinGet installations, Claude Code runs the upgrade command in the background and prompts to restart
789- Plugin manifests: `themes` and `monitors` should now be declared under `"experimental": { ... }`. Top-level declarations still work but `claude plugin validate` will warn
790- Gateway `/v1/models` discovery for the `/model` picker is now opt-in via `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_GATEWAY_MODEL_DISCOVERY=1` (was automatic in 2.1.126–2.1.128)
791- Ctrl+R history picker now defaults to searching all prompts across all projects, matching pre-2.1.124 behavior. Press Ctrl+S to narrow to the current project or session
792- Third-party deployments (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, or `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` gateway) no longer see spinner tips pointing at first-party Anthropic surfaces
793- `skillOverrides` setting now works: `off` hides from model and `/`, `user-invocable-only` hides from model only, `name-only` collapses description
794- The `claude_code.pull_request.count` OTel metric now counts PRs/MRs created via MCP tools, not just shell commands
795- Policy refusal error messages now include the API Request ID for easier support debugging
796- Fixed API errors with unrecognized 400 status codes showing raw JSON instead of the underlying error message
797- Fixed `/clear` not resetting the terminal tab title after a conversation
798- Fixed session title chip from `/rename` disappearing while a permission or other dialog is active
799- Fixed agent panel below the prompt being hidden when subagents are running (regression in 2.1.122)
800- Fixed external-editor handoff (Ctrl+G) blanking the conversation history above the prompt
801- Fixed `/context` dumping its rendered ASCII visualization grid into the conversation, wasting ~1.6k tokens per call
802- Fixed `/agents` Library list arrow-key navigation: the highlighted agent now stays visible when the list exceeds the viewport
803- Fixed `/branch` success message not including the new branch's session id for `/resume`
804- Fixed bold headers with keycap/ZWJ/skin-tone emoji losing trailing characters in fullscreen mode
805- Fixed server-managed settings policy not applying for enterprise/team users whose stored OAuth credentials lacked the `user:inference` scope
806- Fixed OAuth refresh race after wake-from-sleep that could log out all running sessions
807- Fixed 1-hour prompt cache TTL being silently downgraded to 5 minutes
808- Fixed cache-miss warning appearing spuriously after `/clear` or compaction when changing `/effort` or `/model`
809- Fixed `Bash(mkdir *)`, `Bash(touch *)` and similar allow rules not being honored for in-project paths
810- Fixed `deniedMcpServers` patterns with a `*://` scheme wildcard not matching mixed-case hostnames
811- Fixed harmless WebSocket warning being logged as an error in `--debug` during voice mode
812- [VSCode] Fixed `/clear` not clearing the conversation context and displayed transcript
813
814## 2.1.128
815
816- Bare `/color` (no args) now picks a random session color
817- `/mcp` now shows the tool count for connected servers and flags servers that connected with 0 tools
818- `--plugin-dir` now accepts `.zip` plugin archives in addition to directories
819- `--channels` now works with console (API key) authentication — console orgs with managed settings must set `channelsEnabled: true` to enable
820- Updated `/model` picker: collapsed duplicate Opus 4.7 entries, and current Opus now shows as "Opus" instead of "Opus 4.7"
821- Subprocesses (Bash, hooks, MCP, LSP) no longer inherit `OTEL_*` environment variables, so OTEL-instrumented apps run via the Bash tool no longer pick up the CLI's own OTLP endpoint
822- MCP: `workspace` is now a reserved server name — existing servers with that name will be skipped with a warning
823- Reconnecting MCP servers no longer flood the conversation with full tool-name lists on every reconnect — re-announced tools are summarized by server prefix
824- SDK hosts now receive a persistent `localSettings` suggestion for Bash permission prompts, so "Always allow" writes to `.claude/settings.local.json`
825- `EnterWorktree` now creates the new branch from local HEAD as documented, instead of `origin/<default-branch>` — unpushed commits are no longer dropped
826- Auto mode: when the classifier can't evaluate an action, the error now includes a hint (retry, `/compact`, or run with `--debug`)
827- Fixed focus mode briefly dimming the previous response when submitting a new prompt
828- Fixed stray "4;0;" desktop notification on every `/exit` in Kitty and other terminals that interpret OSC 9 as a notification

834- Fixed MCP tool results dropping images when the server returns both structured content and content blocks
835- Fixed fenced code blocks inside list items carrying leading whitespace into the clipboard on copy-paste
836- Fixed tab navigation in `/config` stranding focus — the tab header now stays focused so arrows and Esc keep working
837- Fixed markdown link labels being lost on terminals without OSC 8 hyperlink support — links now render as `label (url)` instead of just the URL
838- Fixed sessions on 1M-context models with a smaller autocompact window being falsely blocked with "Prompt is too long" before reaching the actual API limit
839- Fixed parallel shell tool calls: a failing read-only command (grep, git diff, ls) no longer cancels sibling calls
840- Fixed banner showing "with X effort" on models that don't support effort
841- Fixed `/fast` on 3P providers fuzzy-matching to an unrelated skill instead of showing "not available"

844- Fixed terminal progress indicator (OSC 9;4) flickering off between tool calls — stays visible across the full turn
845- Fixed `/rename` without args failing on resumed sessions whose last entry is a compact boundary
846- Fixed stale "remote-control is active" status lines from prior sessions appearing after `--resume`/`--continue`
847- Fixed stale `installed_plugins.json` entries pointing at deleted cache directories polluting PATH
848- Fixed MCP stdio servers receiving corrupted arguments when `CLAUDE_CODE_SHELL_PREFIX` is set and an argument contains spaces or shell metacharacters
849- Fixed sub-agent progress summaries missing the prompt cache (~3× `cache_creation` reduction)
850- Fixed `/plugin update` never detecting new versions of npm-sourced plugins
851- Fixed sub-agent summaries firing repeatedly while a sub-agent's transcript is static, capping worst-case token cost on idle sub-agents
852- Headless `--output-format stream-json`: `init.plugin_errors` now includes `--plugin-dir` load failures in addition to dependency demotions
853
854## 2.1.126
855
856- The `/model` picker now lists models from your gateway's `/v1/models` endpoint when `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` points at an Anthropic-compatible gateway

862- Host-managed deployments (`CLAUDE_CODE_PROVIDER_MANAGED_BY_HOST`) no longer auto-disable analytics on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry
863- Windows: PowerShell 7 installed via the Microsoft Store, MSI without PATH, or `.NET global tool` is now detected
864- Windows: when the PowerShell tool is enabled, Claude now treats PowerShell as the primary shell instead of defaulting to Bash
865- Read tool: removed the per-file malware-assessment reminder that could cause spurious refusals and "this is not malware" commentary on legacy models
866- **Security:** Fixed `allowManagedDomainsOnly` / `allowManagedReadPathsOnly` being ignored when a higher-priority managed-settings source lacked a `sandbox` block
867- Fixed pasting an image larger than 2000px breaking the session — images are now downscaled on paste, and oversized images in history are automatically removed and the request retried
868- Fixed showing the login screen for "OAuth not allowed for organization" errors — now shows guidance to contact your admin
869- Fixed OAuth login failing with timeout on slow or proxied connections, in IPv6-only devcontainers, and when the browser callback can't reach localhost

880- Fixed plan-mode tools being unavailable in interactive sessions launched with `--channels`
881- Fixed `/plugin` Uninstall reporting "Enabled" instead of "Uninstalled"
882- Bounded total size of file-modified reminders when a linter touches many files at once
883- Fixed `/remote-control` retries appearing stuck on "connecting…" — each retry now shows its result
884- Fixed Remote Control failure notification not showing the error reason for initial connection failures
885- Windows: clipboard writes no longer expose copied content in process command-line arguments visible to EDR/SIEM telemetry; also fixes >22KB selections not reaching the clipboard

887- Fixed Agent SDK hang when the model emits a malformed tool name in a parallel tool call batch
888

908- Fixed images sent to newer models being resized to 2576px per side instead of the correct 2000px maximum

910- Fixed assistant messages appearing blank in some sessions due to a stale view preference
911- Fixed a malformed hooks entry in `settings.json` no longer invalidating the entire file

Custom/MCP command names are redacted unless `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1` is set
1085- Native builds on macOS and Linux: the `Glob` and `Grep` tools are replaced by embedded `bfs` and `ugrep` available through the Bash tool — faster searches without a separate tool round-trip (Windows and npm-installed builds unchanged)

1100- [VSCode] Fixed "Manage Plugins" panel breaking when multiple large marketplaces are configured
1101- Fixed Opus 4.7 sessions showing inflated `/context` percentages and autocompacting too early — Claude Code was computing against a 200K context window instead of Opus 4.7's native 1M
1102
1103## 2.1.116
1104
1105- `/resume` on large sessions is significantly faster (up to 67% on 40MB+ sessions) and handles sessions with many dead-fork entries more efficiently
1106- Faster MCP startup when multiple stdio servers are configured; `resources/templates/list` is now deferred to first `@`-mention
1107- Smoother fullscreen scrolling in VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf terminals — `/terminal-setup` now configures the editor's scroll sensitivity
1108- Thinking spinner now shows progress inline ("still thinking", "thinking more", "almost done thinking"), replacing the separate hint row
1109- `/config` search now matches option values (e.g. searching "vim" finds the Editor mode setting)

1111- `/reload-plugins` and background plugin auto-update now auto-install missing plugin dependencies from marketplaces you've already added
1112- Bash tool now surfaces a hint when `gh` commands hit GitHub's API rate limit, so agents can back off instead of retrying

1114- Agent frontmatter `hooks:` now fire when running as a main-thread agent via `--agent`
1115- Slash command menu now shows "No commands match" when your filter has zero results, instead of disappearing
1116- Security: sandbox auto-allow no longer bypasses the dangerous-path safety check for `rm`/`rmdir` targeting `/`, `$HOME`, or other critical system directories
1117- Claude Code and installer now use `https://downloads.claude.ai/claude-code-releases` instead of `https://storage.googleapis.com/claude-code-dist-86c565f3-f756-42ad-8dfa-d59b1c096819/claude-code-releases`

1134
1135## 2.1.113
1136
1137- Changed the CLI to spawn a native Claude Code binary (via a per-platform optional dependency) instead of bundled JavaScript
1138- Added `sandbox.network.deniedDomains` setting to block specific domains even when a broader `allowedDomains` wildcard would otherwise permit them
1139- Fullscreen mode: Shift+↑/↓ now scrolls the viewport when extending a selection past the visible edge
1140- `Ctrl+A` and `Ctrl+E` now move to the start/end of the current logical line in multiline input, matching readline behavior
1141- Windows: `Ctrl+Backspace` now deletes the previous word
1142- Long URLs in responses and bash output stay clickable when they wrap across lines (in terminals with OSC 8 hyperlinks)
1143- Improved `/loop`: pressing Esc now cancels pending wakeups, and wakeups display as "Claude resuming /loop wakeup" for clarity
1144- `/extra-usage` now works from Remote Control (mobile/web) clients
1145- Remote Control clients can now query `@`-file autocomplete suggestions
1146- Improved `/ultrareview`: faster launch with parallelized checks, diffstat in the launch dialog, and animated launching state
1147- Subagents that stall mid-stream now fail with a clear error after 10 minutes instead of hanging silently
1148- Bash tool: multi-line commands whose first line is a comment now show the full command in the transcript, closing a UI-spoofing vector
1149- Running `cd <current-directory> && git …` no longer triggers a permission prompt when the `cd` is a no-op
1150- Security: on macOS, `/private/{etc,var,tmp,home}` paths are now treated as dangerous removal targets under `Bash(rm:*)` allow rules
1151- Security: Bash deny rules now match commands wrapped in `env`/`sudo`/`watch`/`ionice`/`setsid` and similar exec wrappers
1152- Security: `Bash(find:*)` allow rules no longer auto-approve `find -exec`/`-delete`

1162- Fixed `/insights` crashing with `EBUSY` on Windows
1163- Fixed exit confirmation dialog mislabeling one-shot scheduled tasks as recurring — now shows a countdown
1164- Fixed slash/@ completion menu not sitting flush against the prompt border in fullscreen mode
1165- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_EXTRA_BODY` `output_config.effort` causing 400 errors on subagent calls to models that don't support effort and on Vertex AI
1166- Fixed prompt cursor disappearing when `NO_COLOR` is set
1167- Fixed `ToolSearch` ranking so pasted MCP tool names surface the actual tool instead of description-matching siblings
1168- Fixed compacting a resumed long-context session failing with "Extra usage is required for long context requests"

1183- Auto mode is now available for Max subscribers when using Opus 4.7
1184- Added `xhigh` effort level for Opus 4.7, sitting between `high` and `max`. Available via `/effort`, `--effort`, and the model picker; other models fall back to `high`
1185- `/effort` now opens an interactive slider when called without arguments, with arrow-key navigation between levels and Enter to confirm
1186- Added "Auto (match terminal)" theme option that matches your terminal's dark/light mode — select it from `/theme`

1188- Added `/ultrareview` for running comprehensive code review in the cloud using parallel multi-agent analysis and critique — invoke with no arguments to review your current branch, or `/ultrareview <PR#>` to fetch and review a specific GitHub PR
1189- Auto mode no longer requires `--enable-auto-mode`
1190- Windows: PowerShell tool is progressively rolling out. Opt in or out with `CLAUDE_CODE_USE_POWERSHELL_TOOL`. On Linux and macOS, enable with `CLAUDE_CODE_USE_POWERSHELL_TOOL=1` (requires `pwsh` on PATH)
1191- Read-only bash commands with glob patterns (e.g. `ls *.ts`) and commands starting with `cd <project-dir> &&` no longer trigger a permission prompt
1192- Suggest the closest matching subcommand when `claude <word>` is invoked with a near-miss typo (e.g. `claude udpate` → "Did you mean `claude update`?")
1193- Plan files are now named after your prompt (e.g. `fix-auth-race-snug-otter.md`) instead of purely random words
1194- Improved `/setup-vertex` and `/setup-bedrock` to show the actual `settings.json` path when `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` is set, seed model candidates from existing pins on re-run, and offer a "with 1M context" option for supported models
1195- `/skills` menu now supports sorting by estimated token count — press `t` to toggle
1196- `Ctrl+U` now clears the entire input buffer (previously: delete to start of line); press `Ctrl+Y` to restore
1197- `Ctrl+L` now forces a full screen redraw in addition to clearing the prompt input
1198- Transcript view footer now shows `[` (dump to scrollback) and `v` (open in editor) shortcuts
1199- The "+N lines" marker for truncated long pastes is now a full-width rule for easier scanning
1200- Headless `--output-format stream-json` now includes `plugin_errors` on the init event when plugins are demoted for unsatisfied dependencies
1201- Added `OTEL_LOG_RAW_API_BODIES` environment variable to emit full API request and response bodies as OpenTelemetry log events for debugging
1202- Suppressed spurious decompression, network, and transient error messages that could appear in the TUI during normal operation
1203- Reverted the v2.1.110 cap on non-streaming fallback retries — it traded long waits for more outright failures during API overload
1204- Fixed terminal display tearing (random characters, drifting input) in iTerm2 + tmux setups when terminal notifications are sent
1205- Fixed `@` file suggestions re-scanning the entire project on every turn in non-git working directories, and showing only config files in freshly-initialized git repos with no tracked files
1206- Fixed LSP diagnostics from before an edit appearing after it, causing the model to re-read files it just edited
1207- Fixed tab-completing `/resume` immediately resuming an arbitrary titled session instead of showing the session picker
1208- Fixed `/context` grid rendering with extra blank lines between rows
1209- Fixed `/clear` dropping the session name set by `/rename`, causing statusline output to lose `session_name`
1210- Improved plugin error handling: dependency errors now distinguish conflicting, invalid, and overly complex version requirements; fixed stale resolved versions after `plugin update`; `plugin install` now recovers from interrupted prior installs
1211- Fixed Claude calling a non-existent `commit` skill and showing "Unknown skill: commit" for users without a custom `/commit` command
1212- Fixed 429 rate-limit errors on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry referencing status.claude.com (it only covers Anthropic-operated providers)
1213- Fixed feedback surveys appearing back-to-back after dismissing one
1214- Fixed bare URLs in bash/PowerShell/MCP tool output being unclickable when the terminal wraps them across lines
1215- Windows: `CLAUDE_ENV_FILE` and SessionStart hook environment files now apply (previously a no-op)
1216- Windows: permission rules with drive-letter paths are now correctly root-anchored, and paths differing only by drive-letter case are recognized as the same path
1217
1218## 2.1.110
1219
1220- Added `/tui` command and `tui` setting — run `/tui fullscreen` to switch to flicker-free rendering in the same conversation
1221- Added push notification tool — Claude can send mobile push notifications when Remote Control and "Push when Claude decides" config are enabled

1226- Improved `/doctor` to warn when an MCP server is defined in multiple config scopes with different endpoints
1227- `--resume`/`--continue` now resurrects unexpired scheduled tasks
1228- `/context`, `/exit`, and `/reload-plugins` now work from Remote Control (mobile/web) clients

1236- Fixed high CPU usage in fullscreen when text is selected while a tool is running
1237- Fixed plugin install not honoring dependencies declared in `plugin.json` when the marketplace entry omits them; `/plugin` install now lists auto-installed dependencies

1244- Hardened "Open in editor" actions against command injection from untrusted filenames
1245- Fixed `PermissionRequest` hooks returning `updatedInput` not being re-checked against `permissions.deny` rules; `setMode:'bypassPermissions'` updates now respect `disableBypassPermissionsMode`
1246- Fixed `PreToolUse` hook `additionalContext` being dropped when the tool call fails
1247- Fixed stdio MCP servers that print stray non-JSON lines to stdout being disconnected on the first stray line (regression in 2.1.105)
1248- Fixed headless/SDK session auto-title firing an extra Haiku request when `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC` or `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_TERMINAL_TITLE` is set
1249- Fixed potential excessive memory allocation when piped (non-TTY) Ink output contains a single very wide line
1250- Fixed `/skills` menu not scrolling when the list overflows the modal in fullscreen mode
1251- Fixed Remote Control sessions showing a generic error instead of prompting for re-login when the session is too old

1257
1258## 2.1.108
1259
1260- Added `ENABLE_PROMPT_CACHING_1H` env var to opt into 1-hour prompt cache TTL on API key, Bedrock, Vertex, and Foundry (`ENABLE_PROMPT_CACHING_1H_BEDROCK` is deprecated but still honored), and `FORCE_PROMPT_CACHING_5M` to force 5-minute TTL
1261- Added recap feature to provide context when returning to a session, configurable in `/config` and manually invocable with `/recap`; force with `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_AWAY_SUMMARY` if telemetry disabled.
1262- The model can now discover and invoke built-in slash commands like `/init`, `/review`, and `/security-review` via the Skill tool
1263- `/undo` is now an alias for `/rewind`
1264- Improved `/model` to warn before switching models mid-conversation, since the next response re-reads the full history uncached
1265- Improved `/resume` picker to default to sessions from the current directory; press `Ctrl+A` to show all projects
1266- Improved error messages: server rate limits are now distinguished from plan usage limits; 5xx/529 errors show a link to status.claude.com; unknown slash commands suggest the closest match
1267- Reduced memory footprint for file reads, edits, and syntax highlighting by loading language grammars on demand
1268- Added "verbose" indicator when viewing the detailed transcript (`Ctrl+O`)
1269- Added a warning at startup when prompt caching is disabled via `DISABLE_PROMPT_CACHING*` environment variables

1275- Fixed session titles showing placeholder example text when the first message is a short greeting
1276- Fixed terminal escape codes appearing as garbage text in the prompt input after `--teleport`
1277- Fixed `/feedback` retry: pressing Enter to resubmit after a failure now works without first editing the description
1278- Fixed `--teleport` and `--resume <id>` precondition errors (e.g. dirty git tree, session not found) exiting silently instead of showing the error message
1279- Fixed Remote Control session titles set in the web UI being overwritten by auto-generated titles after the third message
1280- Fixed `--resume` truncating sessions when the transcript contained a self-referencing message
1281- Fixed transcript write failures (e.g., disk full) being silently dropped instead of being logged

1290
1291- Added `path` parameter to the `EnterWorktree` tool to switch into an existing worktree of the current repository
1292- Added PreCompact hook support: hooks can now block compaction by exiting with code 2 or returning `{"decision":"block"}`
1293- Added background monitor support for plugins via a top-level `monitors` manifest key that auto-arms at session start or on skill invoke
1294- `/proactive` is now an alias for `/loop`
1295- Improved stalled API stream handling: streams now abort after 5 minutes of no data and retry non-streaming instead of hanging indefinitely
1296- Improved network error messages: connection errors now show a retry message immediately instead of a silent spinner
1297- Improved file write display: long single-line writes (e.g. minified JSON) are now truncated in the UI instead of paginating across many screens
1298- Improved `/doctor` layout with status icons; press `f` to have Claude fix reported issues
1299- Improved `/config` labels and descriptions for clarity
1300- Improved skill description handling: raised the listing cap from 250 to 1,536 characters and added a startup warning when descriptions are truncated
1301- Improved `WebFetch` to strip `<style>` and `<script>` contents from fetched pages so CSS-heavy pages no longer exhaust the content budget before reaching actual text
1302- Improved stale agent worktree cleanup to remove worktrees whose PR was squash-merged instead of keeping them indefinitely
1303- Improved MCP large-output truncation prompt to give format-specific recipes (e.g. `jq` for JSON, computed Read chunk sizes for text)
1304- Fixed images attached to queued messages (sent while Claude is working) being dropped
1305- Fixed screen going blank when the prompt input wraps to a second line in long conversations
1306- Fixed leading whitespace getting copied when selecting multi-line assistant responses in fullscreen mode

1330
1331- Added `/team-onboarding` command to generate a teammate ramp-up guide from your local Claude Code usage
1332- Added OS CA certificate store trust by default, so enterprise TLS proxies work without extra setup (set `CLAUDE_CODE_CERT_STORE=bundled` to use only bundled CAs)
1333- `/ultraplan` and other remote-session features now auto-create a default cloud environment instead of requiring web setup first
1334- Improved brief mode to retry once when Claude responds with plain text instead of a structured message
1335- Improved focus mode: Claude now writes more self-contained summaries since it knows you only see its final message
1336- Improved tool-not-available errors to explain why and how to proceed when the model calls a tool that exists but isn't available in the current context
1337- Improved rate-limit retry messages to show which limit was hit and when it resets instead of an opaque seconds countdown
1338- Improved refusal error messages to include the API-provided explanation when available
1339- Improved `claude -p --resume <name>` to accept session titles set via `/rename` or `--name`
1340- Improved settings resilience: an unrecognized hook event name in `settings.json` no longer causes the entire file to be ignored
1341- Improved plugin hooks from plugins force-enabled by managed settings to run when `allowManagedHooksOnly` is set
1342- Improved `/plugin` and `claude plugin update` to show a warning when the marketplace could not be refreshed, instead of silently reporting a stale version
1343- Improved plan mode to hide the "Refine with Ultraplan" option when the user's org or auth setup can't reach Claude Code on the web
1344- Improved beta tracing to honor `OTEL_LOG_USER_PROMPTS`, `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS`, and `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_CONTENT`; sensitive span attributes are no longer emitted unless opted in
1345- Improved SDK `query()` to clean up subprocess and temp files when consumers `break` from `for await` or use `await using`
1346- Fixed a command injection vulnerability in the POSIX `which` fallback used by LSP binary detection
1347- Fixed a memory leak where long sessions retained dozens of historical copies of the message list in the virtual scroller
1348- Fixed `--resume`/`--continue` losing conversation context on large sessions when the loader anchored on a dead-end branch instead of the live conversation
1349- Fixed `--resume` chain recovery bridging into an unrelated subagent conversation when a subagent message landed near a main-chain write gap
1350- Fixed a crash on `--resume` when a persisted Edit/Write tool result was missing its `file_path`
1351- Fixed a hardcoded 5-minute request timeout that aborted slow backends (local LLMs, extended thinking, slow gateways) regardless of `API_TIMEOUT_MS`
1352- Fixed `permissions.deny` rules not overriding a PreToolUse hook's `permissionDecision: "ask"` — previously the hook could downgrade a deny into a prompt
1353- Fixed `--setting-sources` without `user` causing background cleanup to ignore `cleanupPeriodDays` and delete conversation history older than 30 days
1354- Fixed Bedrock SigV4 authentication failing with 403 when `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN`, `apiKeyHelper`, or `ANTHROPIC_CUSTOM_HEADERS` set an Authorization header

1360- Fixed `RemoteTrigger` tool's `run` action sending an empty body and being rejected by the server
1361- Fixed several `/resume` picker issues: narrow default view hiding sessions from other projects, unreachable preview on Windows Terminal, incorrect cwd in worktrees, session-not-found errors not surfacing in stderr, terminal title not being set, and resume hint overlapping the prompt input

1752- Added transcript search — press `/` in transcript mode (`Ctrl+O`) to search, `n`/`N` to step through matches
1753- Added `Ctrl+X Ctrl+E` as an alias for opening the external editor (readline-native binding; `Ctrl+G` still works)

1795- Faster `claude -p` startup with unauthenticated HTTP/SSE MCP servers (~600ms saved)
1796- Bash ghost-text suggestions now include just-submitted commands immediately
1797- Increased non-streaming fallback token cap (21k → 64k) and timeout (120s → 300s local) so fallback requests are less likely to be truncated

1799- `/status` now works while Claude is responding, instead of being queued until the turn finishes
1800- Plugin MCP servers that duplicate an org-managed connector are now suppressed instead of running a second connection

1806- Claude can now reference the on-disk path of clipboard-pasted images for file operations
1807- `Ctrl+L` now clears the screen and forces a full redraw — use this to recover when Cmd+K leaves the UI partially blank. Use `Ctrl+U` or double-Esc to clear prompt input.

1823
1824## 2.1.81
1825
1826- Added `--bare` flag for scripted `-p` calls — skips hooks, LSP, plugin sync, and skill directory walks; requires `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` or an `apiKeyHelper` via `--settings` (OAuth and keychain auth disabled); auto-memory fully disabled

1923
1924## 2.1.77

1959- Improved Esc to abort in-flight non-streaming API requests
1960- Improved `claude plugin validate` to check skill, agent, and command frontmatter plus `hooks/hooks.json`, catching YAML parse errors and schema violations
1961- Background bash tasks are now killed if output exceeds 5GB, preventing runaway processes from filling disk
1962- Sessions are now auto-named from plan content when you accept a plan
1963- Improved headless mode plugin installation to compose correctly with `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_SEED_DIR`
1964- Show a notice when `apiKeyHelper` takes longer than 10s, preventing it from blocking the main loop
1965- The Agent tool no longer accepts a `resume` parameter — use `SendMessage({to: agentId})` to continue a previously spawned agent
1966- `SendMessage` now auto-resumes stopped agents in the background instead of returning an error
1967- Renamed `/fork` to `/branch` (`/fork` still works as an alias)
1968- [VSCode] Improved plan preview tab titles to use the plan's heading instead of "Claude's Plan"
1969- [VSCode] When option+click doesn't trigger native selection on macOS, the footer now points to the `macOptionClickForcesSelection` setting

1994- Fixed transcript not auto-scrolling to new messages after selecting text
1995- Fixed Escape key not working to exit the login method selection screen

1997- Fixed bridge sessions failing to recover after extended WebSocket disconnects
1998- Fixed slash commands not found when typing the exact name of a soft-hidden command
1999- Improved `--worktree` startup performance by reading git refs directly and skipping redundant `git fetch` when the remote branch is already available locally
2000- Improved background agent behavior — killing a background agent now preserves its partial results in the conversation context
2001- Improved model fallback notifications — now always visible instead of hidden behind verbose mode, with human-friendly model names
2002- Improved blockquote readability on dark terminal themes — text is now italic with a left bar instead of dim
2003- Improved stale worktree cleanup — worktrees left behind after an interrupted parallel run are now automatically cleaned up
2004- Improved Remote Control session titles — now derived from your first prompt instead of showing "Interactive session"
2005- Improved `/voice` to show your dictation language on enable and warn when your `language` setting isn't supported for voice input

2037- Fixed full model IDs (e.g., `claude-opus-4-5`) being silently ignored in agent frontmatter `model:` field and `--agents` JSON config — agents now accept the same model values as `--model`
2038- Fixed MCP OAuth authentication hanging when the callback port is already in use
2039- Fixed MCP OAuth refresh never prompting for re-auth after the refresh token expires, for OAuth servers that return errors with HTTP 200 (e.g. Slack)
2040- Fixed voice mode silently failing on the macOS native binary for users whose terminal had never been granted microphone permission — the binary now includes the `audio-input` entitlement so macOS prompts correctly
2041- Fixed `SessionEnd` hooks being killed after 1.5 s on exit regardless of `hook.timeout` — now configurable via `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSIONEND_HOOKS_TIMEOUT_MS`

2055- Fixed freezes and 100% CPU loops triggered by permission prompts for complex bash commands
2056- Fixed a deadlock that could freeze Claude Code when many skill files changed at once (e.g. during `git pull` in a repo with a large `.claude/skills/` directory)

2079
2080## 2.1.72
2081
2082- Fixed tool search to activate even with `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` as long as `ENABLE_TOOL_SEARCH` is set.
2083- Added `w` key in `/copy` to write the focused selection directly to a file, bypassing the clipboard (useful over SSH)

2086- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_CRON` environment variable to immediately stop scheduled cron jobs mid-session
2087- Added `lsof`, `pgrep`, `tput`, `ss`, `fd`, and `fdfind` to the bash auto-approval allowlist, reducing permission prompts for common read-only operations
2088- Restored the `model` parameter on the Agent tool for per-invocation model overrides
2089- Simplified effort levels to low/medium/high (removed max) with new symbols (○ ◐ ●) and a brief notification instead of a persistent icon. Use `/effort auto` to reset to default
2090- Improved `/config` — Escape now cancels changes, Enter saves and closes, Space toggles settings
2091- Improved up-arrow history to show current session's messages first when running multiple concurrent sessions
2092- Improved voice input transcription accuracy for repo names and common dev terms (regex, OAuth, JSON)
2093- Improved bash command parsing by switching to a native module — faster initialization and no memory leak
2094- Reduced bundle size by ~510 KB
2095- Changed CLAUDE.md HTML comments (`<!-- ... -->`) to be hidden from Claude when auto-injected. Comments remain visible when read with the Read tool
2096- Fixed slow exits when background tasks or hooks were slow to respond
2097- Fixed agent task progress stuck on "Initializing…"
2098- Fixed skill hooks firing twice per event when a hooks-enabled skill is invoked by the model

2104- Fixed several plugin issues: installation failing on Windows with `EEXIST` error in OneDrive folders, marketplace blocking user-scope installs when a project-scope install exists, `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_CACHE_DIR` creating literal `~` directories, and `plugin.json` with marketplace-only fields failing to load
2105- Fixed feedback survey appearing too frequently in long sessions

2110- Fixed `/model` not displaying results when run while Claude is working
2111- Fixed digit keys selecting menu options instead of typing in plan mode permission prompt's text input
2112- Fixed sandbox permission issues: certain file write operations incorrectly allowed without prompting, and output redirections to allowlisted directories (like `/tmp/claude/`) prompting unnecessarily
2113- Improved CPU utilization in long sessions
2114- Fixed prompt cache invalidation in SDK `query()` calls, reducing input token costs up to 12x
2115- Fixed Escape key becoming unresponsive after cancelling a query

2119- Fixed several hooks issues: `transcript_path` pointing to the wrong directory for resumed/forked sessions, agent `prompt` being silently deleted from settings.json on every settings write, PostToolUse block reason displaying twice, async hooks not receiving stdin with bash `read -r`, and validation error message showing an example that fails validation
2120- Fixed session crashes in Desktop/SDK when Read returned files containing U+2028/U+2029 characters
2121- Fixed terminal title being cleared on exit even when `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_TERMINAL_TITLE` was set
2122- Fixed several permission rule matching issues: wildcard rules not matching commands with heredocs, embedded newlines, or no arguments; `sandbox.excludedCommands` failing with env var prefixes; "always allow" suggesting overly broad prefixes for nested CLI tools; and deny rules not applying to all command forms
2123- Fixed oversized and truncated images from Bash data-URL output
2124- Fixed a crash when resuming sessions that contained Bedrock API errors
2125- Fixed intermittent "expected boolean, received string" validation errors on Edit, Bash, and Grep tool inputs

2137- Added cron scheduling tools for recurring prompts within a session
2138- Added `voice:pushToTalk` keybinding to make the voice activation key rebindable in `keybindings.json` (default: space) — modifier+letter combos like `meta+k` have zero typing interference
2139- Added `fmt`, `comm`, `cmp`, `numfmt`, `expr`, `test`, `printf`, `getconf`, `seq`, `tsort`, and `pr` to the bash auto-approval allowlist
2140- Fixed stdin freeze in long-running sessions where keystrokes stop being processed but the process stays alive
2141- Fixed a 5–8 second startup freeze for users with voice mode enabled, caused by CoreAudio initialization blocking the main thread after system wake
2142- Fixed startup UI freeze when many claude.ai proxy connectors refresh an expired OAuth token simultaneously
2143- Fixed forked conversations (`/fork`) sharing the same plan file, which caused plan edits in one fork to overwrite the other
2144- Fixed the Read tool putting oversized images into context when image processing failed, breaking subsequent turns in long image-heavy sessions
2145- Fixed false-positive permission prompts for compound bash commands containing heredoc commit messages
2146- Fixed plugin installations being lost when running multiple Claude Code instances
2147- Fixed claude.ai connectors failing to reconnect after OAuth token refresh
2148- Fixed claude.ai MCP connector startup notifications appearing for every org-configured connector instead of only previously connected ones

2150- Fixed duplicate output in Bash tool error messages when commands exit with non-zero status
2151- Fixed Chrome extension auto-detection getting permanently stuck on "not installed" after running on a machine without local Chrome
2152- Fixed `/plugin marketplace update` failing with merge conflicts when the marketplace is pinned to a branch/tag ref
2153- Fixed `/plugin marketplace add owner/repo@ref` incorrectly parsing `@` — previously only `#` worked as a ref separator, causing undiagnosable errors with `strictKnownMarketplaces`
2154- Fixed duplicate entries in `/permissions` Workspace tab when the same directory is added with and without a trailing slash
2155- Fixed `--print` hanging forever when team agents are configured — the exit loop no longer waits on long-lived `in_process_teammate` tasks
2156- Fixed "❯ Tool loaded." appearing in the REPL after every `ToolSearch` call
2157- Fixed prompting for `cd <cwd> && git ...` on Windows when the model uses a mingw-style path
2158- Improved startup time by deferring native image processor loading to first use
2159- Improved bridge session reconnection to complete within seconds after laptop wake from sleep, instead of waiting up to 10 minutes
2160- Improved `/plugin uninstall` to disable project-scoped plugins in `.claude/settings.local.json` instead of modifying `.claude/settings.json`, so changes don't affect teammates
2161- Improved plugin-provided MCP server deduplication — servers that duplicate a manually-configured server (same command/URL) are now skipped, preventing duplicate connections and tool sets. Suppressions are shown in the `/plugin` menu.
2162- Updated `/debug` to toggle debug logging on mid-session, since debug logs are no longer written by default
2163- Removed startup notification noise for unauthenticated org-registered claude.ai connectors
2164
2165## 2.1.70
2166
2167- Fixed API 400 errors when using `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` with a third-party gateway — tool search now correctly detects proxy endpoints and disables `tool_reference` blocks
2168- Fixed `API Error: 400 This model does not support the effort parameter` when using custom Bedrock inference profiles or other model identifiers not matching standard Claude naming patterns
2169- Fixed empty model responses immediately after `ToolSearch` — the server renders tool schemas with system-prompt-style tags at the prompt tail, which could confuse models into stopping early
2170- Fixed prompt-cache bust when an MCP server with `instructions` connects after the first turn
2171- Fixed Enter inserting a newline instead of submitting when typing over a slow SSH connection
2172- Fixed clipboard corrupting non-ASCII text (CJK, emoji) on Windows/WSL by using PowerShell `Set-Clipboard`

2179- Fixed plugins showing "not found in marketplace" errors on fresh startup by auto-refreshing after marketplace installation
2180- Fixed `/security-review` command failing with `unknown option merge-base` on older git versions
2181- Fixed `/color` command having no way to reset back to the default color — `/color default`, `/color gray`, `/color reset`, and `/color none` now restore the default
2182- Fixed a performance regression in the `AskUserQuestion` preview dialog that re-ran markdown rendering on every keystroke in the notes input
2183- Fixed feature flags read during early startup never refreshing their disk cache, causing stale values to persist across sessions
2184- Fixed `permissions.defaultMode` settings values other than `acceptEdits` or `plan` being applied in Claude Code Remote environments — they are now ignored
2185- Fixed skill listing being re-injected on every `--resume` (~600 tokens saved per resume)
2186- Fixed teleport marker not rendering in VS Code teleported sessions
2187- Improved error message when microphone captures silence to distinguish from "no speech detected"
2188- Improved compaction to preserve images in the summarizer request, allowing prompt cache reuse for faster and cheaper compaction
2189- Improved `/rename` to work while Claude is processing, instead of being silently queued
2190- Reduced prompt input re-renders during turns by ~74%
2191- Reduced startup memory by ~426KB for users without custom CA certificates
2192- Reduced Remote Control `/poll` rate to once per 10 minutes while connected (was 1–2s), cutting server load ~300×. Reconnection is unaffected — transport loss immediately wakes fast polling.
2193- [VSCode] Added spark icon in VS Code activity bar that lists all Claude Code sessions, with sessions opening as full editors
2194- [VSCode] Added full markdown document view for plans in VS Code, with support for adding comments to provide feedback
2195- [VSCode] Added native MCP server management dialog — use `/mcp` in the chat panel to enable/disable servers, reconnect, and manage OAuth authentication without switching to the terminal
2196
2197## 2.1.69
2198
2199- Added the `/claude-api` skill for building applications with the Claude API and Anthropic SDK
2200- Added Ctrl+U on an empty bash prompt (`!`) to exit bash mode, matching `escape` and `backspace`
2201- Added numeric keypad support for selecting options in Claude's interview questions (previously only the number row above QWERTY worked)
2202- Added optional name argument to `/remote-control` and `claude remote-control` (`/remote-control My Project` or `--name "My Project"`) to set a custom session title visible in claude.ai/code
2203- Added Voice STT support for 10 new languages (20 total) — Russian, Polish, Turkish, Dutch, Ukrainian, Greek, Czech, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian
2204- Added effort level display (e.g., "with low effort") to the logo and spinner, making it easier to see which effort setting is active
2205- Added agent name display in terminal title when using `claude --agent`
2206- Added `sandbox.enableWeakerNetworkIsolation` setting (macOS only) to allow Go programs like `gh`, `gcloud`, and `terraform` to verify TLS certificates when using a custom MITM proxy with `httpProxyPort`
2207- Added `includeGitInstructions` setting (and `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_GIT_INSTRUCTIONS` env var) to remove built-in commit and PR workflow instructions from Claude's system prompt
2208- Added `/reload-plugins` command to activate pending plugin changes without restarting
2209- Added a one-time startup prompt suggesting Claude Code Desktop on macOS and Windows (max 3 showings, dismissible)
2210- Added `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}` variable for skills to reference their own directory in SKILL.md content
2211- Added `InstructionsLoaded` hook event that fires when CLAUDE.md or `.claude/rules/*.md` files are loaded into context
2212- Added `agent_id` (for subagents) and `agent_type` (for subagents and `--agent`) to hook events
2213- Added `worktree` field to status line hook commands with name, path, branch, and original repo directory when running in a `--worktree` session
2214- Added `pluginTrustMessage` in managed settings to append organization-specific context to the plugin trust warning shown before installation
2215- Added policy limit fetching (e.g., remote control restrictions) for Team plan OAuth users, not just Enterprise
2216- Added `pathPattern` to `strictKnownMarketplaces` for regex-matching file/directory marketplace sources alongside `hostPattern` restrictions
2217- Added plugin source type `git-subdir` to point to a subdirectory within a git repo
2218- Added `oauth.authServerMetadataUrl` config option for MCP servers to specify a custom OAuth metadata discovery URL when standard discovery fails
2219- Fixed a security issue where nested skill discovery could load skills from gitignored directories like `node_modules`
2220- Fixed trust dialog silently enabling all `.mcp.json` servers on first run. You'll now see the per-server approval dialog as expected
2221- Fixed `claude remote-control` crashing immediately on npm installs with "bad option: --sdk-url" (anthropics/claude-code#28334)
2222- Fixed `--model claude-opus-4-0` and `--model claude-opus-4-1` resolving to deprecated Opus versions instead of current
2223- Fixed macOS keychain corruption when using multiple OAuth MCP servers. Large OAuth metadata blobs could overflow the `security -i` stdin buffer, silently leaving stale credentials behind and causing repeated `/login` prompts.
2224- Fixed `.credentials.json` losing `subscriptionType` (showing "Claude API" instead of "Claude Pro"/"Claude Max") when the profile endpoint transiently fails during token refresh (anthropics/claude-code#30185)
2225- Fixed ghost dotfiles (`.bashrc`, `HEAD`, etc.) appearing as untracked files in the working directory after sandboxed Bash commands on Linux
2226- Fixed Shift+Enter printing `[27;2;13~` instead of inserting a newline in Ghostty over SSH
2227- Fixed stash (Ctrl+S) being cleared when submitting a message while Claude is working
2228- Fixed ctrl+o (transcript toggle) freezing for many seconds in long sessions with lots of file edits
2229- Fixed plan mode feedback input not supporting multi-line text entry (backslash+Enter and Shift+Enter now insert newlines)
2230- Fixed cursor not moving down into blank lines at the top of the input box
2231- Fixed `/stats` crash when transcript files contain entries with missing or malformed timestamps
2232- Fixed a brief hang after a streaming error on long sessions (the transcript was being fully rewritten to drop one line; it is now truncated in place)
2233- Fixed `--setting-sources user` not blocking dynamically discovered project skills
2234- Fixed duplicate CLAUDE.md, slash commands, agents, and rules when running from a worktree nested inside its main repo (e.g. `claude -w`)
2235- Fixed plugin Stop/SessionEnd/etc hooks not firing after any `/plugin` operation
2236- Fixed plugin hooks being silently dropped when two plugins use the same `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/...` command template
2237- Fixed memory leak in long-running SDK/CCR sessions where conversation messages were retained unnecessarily
2238- Fixed API 400 errors in forked agents (autocompact, summarization) when resuming sessions that were interrupted mid-tool-batch
2239- Fixed "unexpected tool_use_id found in tool_result blocks" error when resuming conversations that start with an orphaned tool result
2240- Fixed teammates accidentally spawning nested teammates via the Agent tool's `name` parameter
2241- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_OUTPUT_TOKENS` being ignored during conversation compaction
2242- Fixed `/compact` summary rendering as a user bubble in SDK consumers (Claude Code Remote web UI, VSCode extension)
2243- Fixed voice space bar getting stuck after a failed voice activation (module loading race, cold GrowthBook)
2244- Fixed worktree file copy on Windows
2245- Fixed global `.claude` folder detection on Windows
2246- Fixed symlink bypass where writing new files through a symlinked parent directory could escape the working directory in `acceptEdits` mode
2247- Fixed sandbox prompting users to approve non-allowed domains when `allowManagedDomainsOnly` is enabled in managed settings — non-allowed domains are now blocked automatically with no bypass
2248- Fixed interactive tools (e.g., `AskUserQuestion`) being silently auto-allowed when listed in a skill's allowed-tools, bypassing the permission prompt and running with empty answers
2249- Fixed multi-GB memory spike when committing with large untracked binary files in the working tree
2250- Fixed Escape not interrupting a running turn when the input box has draft text. Use Up arrow to pull queued messages back for editing, or Ctrl+U to clear the input line.
2251- Fixed Android app crash when running local slash commands (`/voice`, `/cost`) in Remote Control sessions
2252- Fixed a memory leak where old message array versions accumulated in React Compiler `memoCache` over long sessions
2253- Fixed a memory leak where REPL render scopes accumulated over long sessions (~35MB over 1000 turns)
2254- Fixed memory retention in in-process teammates where the parent's full conversation history was pinned for the teammate's lifetime, preventing GC after `/clear` or auto-compact
2255- Fixed a memory leak in interactive mode where hook events could accumulate unboundedly during long sessions
2256- Fixed hang when `--mcp-config` points to a corrupted file
2257- Fixed slow startup when many skills/plugins are installed
2258- Fixed `cd <outside-dir> && <cmd>` permission prompt to surface the chained command instead of only showing "Yes, allow reading from <dir>/"
2259- Fixed conditional `.claude/rules/*.md` files (with `paths:` frontmatter) and nested CLAUDE.md files not loading in print mode (`claude -p`)
2260- Fixed `/clear` not fully clearing all session caches, reducing memory retention in long sessions
2261- Fixed terminal flicker caused by animated elements at the scrollback boundary
2262- Fixed UI frame drops on macOS when using MCP servers with OAuth (regression from 2.1.x)
2263- Fixed occasional frame stalls during typing caused by synchronous debug log flushes
2264- Fixed `TeammateIdle` and `TaskCompleted` hooks to support `{"continue": false, "stopReason": "..."}` to stop the teammate, matching `Stop` hook behavior
2265- Fixed `WorktreeCreate` and `WorktreeRemove` plugin hooks being silently ignored
2266- Fixed skill descriptions with colons (e.g., "Triggers include: X, Y, Z") failing to load from SKILL.md frontmatter
2267- Fixed project skills without a `description:` frontmatter field not appearing in Claude's available skills list
2268- Fixed `/context` showing identical token counts for all MCP tools from a server
2269- Fixed literal `nul` file creation on Windows when the model uses CMD-style `2>nul` redirection in Git Bash
2270- Fixed extra blank lines appearing below each tool call in the expanded subagent transcript view (Ctrl+O)
2271- Fixed Tab/arrow keys not cycling Settings tabs when `/config` search box is focused but empty
2272- Fixed service key OAuth sessions (CCR containers) spamming `[ERROR]` logs with 403s from profile-scoped endpoints
2273- Fixed inconsistent color for "Remote Control active" status indicator
2274- Fixed Voice waveform cursor covering the first suffix letter when dictating mid-input
2275- Fixed Voice input showing all 5 spaces during warmup instead of capping at ~2 (aligning with the "keep holding…" hint)
2276- Improved spinner performance by isolating the 50ms animation loop from the surrounding shell, reducing render and CPU overhead during turns
2277- Improved UI rendering performance in native binaries with React Compiler
2278- Improved `--worktree` startup by eliminating a git subprocess on the startup path
2279- Improved macOS startup by eliminating redundant settings-file reloads when managed settings resolve
2280- Improved macOS startup for Claude.ai enterprise/team users by skipping an unnecessary keychain lookup
2281- Improved MCP `-p` startup by pipelining claude.ai config fetch with local connections and using a concurrency pool instead of sequential batching
2282- Improved voice startup by removing imperceptible warmup pulse animations that were causing re-render stutter
2283- Improved MCP binary content handling: tools returning PDFs, Office documents, or audio now save decoded bytes to disk with the correct file extension instead of dumping raw base64 into the conversation context. WebFetch also saves binary responses alongside its summary.
2284- Improved memory usage in long sessions by stabilizing `onSubmit` across message updates
2285- Improved LSP tool rendering and memory context building to no longer read entire files
2286- Improved session upload and memory sync to avoid reading large files into memory before size/binary checks
2287- Improved file operation performance by avoiding reading file contents for existence checks (6 sites)
2288- Improved documentation to clarify that `--append-system-prompt-file` and `--system-prompt-file` work in interactive mode (the docs previously said print mode only)
2289- Reduced baseline memory by ~16MB by deferring Yoga WASM preloading
2290- Reduced memory footprint for SDK and CCR sessions using stream-json output
2291- Reduced memory usage when resuming large sessions (including compacted history)
2292- Reduced token usage on multi-agent tasks with more concise subagent final reports
2293- Changed Sonnet 4.5 users on Pro/Max/Team Premium to be automatically migrated to Sonnet 4.6
2294- Changed the `/resume` picker to show your most recent prompt instead of the first one. This also resolves some titles appearing as `(session)`.
2295- Changed claude.ai MCP connector failures to show a notification instead of silently disappearing from the tool list
2296- Changed example command suggestions to be generated deterministically instead of calling Haiku
2297- Changed resuming after compaction to no longer produce a preamble recap before continuing
2298- [SDK] Changed task creation to no longer require the `activeForm` field — the spinner falls back to the task subject
2299- [VSCode] Added compaction display as a collapsible "Compacted chat" card with the summary inside
2300- [VSCode] The permission mode picker now respects `permissions.disableBypassPermissionsMode` from your effective Claude Code settings (including managed/policy settings) — when set to `disable`, bypass permissions mode is hidden from the picker
2301- [VSCode] Fixed RTL text (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian) rendering reversed in the chat panel (regression in v2.1.63)
2302
2303## 2.1.68
2304
2305- Opus 4.6 now defaults to medium effort for Max and Team subscribers. Medium effort works well for most tasks — it's the sweet spot between speed and thoroughness. You can change this anytime with `/model`
2306- Re-introduced the "ultrathink" keyword to enable high effort for the next turn
2307- Removed Opus 4 and 4.1 from Claude Code on the first-party API — users with these models pinned are automatically moved to Opus 4.6
2308
2309## 2.1.66
2310
2311- Reduced spurious error logging
2312
2313## 2.1.63

2315- Added `/simplify` and `/batch` bundled slash commands
2316- Fixed local slash command output like /cost appearing as user-sent messages instead of system messages in the UI
2317- Project configs & auto memory now shared across git worktrees of the same repository
2318- Added `ENABLE_CLAUDEAI_MCP_SERVERS=false` env var to opt out from making claude.ai MCP servers available
2319- Improved `/model` command to show the currently active model in the slash command menu
2320- Added HTTP hooks, which can POST JSON to a URL and receive JSON instead of running a shell command
2321- Fixed listener leak in bridge polling loop
2322- Fixed listener leak in MCP OAuth flow cleanup
2323- Added manual URL paste fallback during MCP OAuth authentication. If the automatic localhost redirect doesn't work, you can paste the callback URL to complete authentication.
2324- Fixed memory leak when navigating hooks configuration menu
2325- Fixed listener leak in interactive permission handler during auto-approvals
2326- Fixed file count cache ignoring glob ignore patterns
2327- Fixed memory leak in bash command prefix cache

2329- Fixed IDE host IP detection cache incorrectly sharing results across ports
2330- Fixed WebSocket listener leak on transport reconnect
2331- Fixed memory leak in git root detection cache that could cause unbounded growth in long-running sessions
2332- Fixed memory leak in JSON parsing cache that grew unbounded over long sessions
2333- VSCode: Fixed remote sessions not appearing in conversation history
2334- Fixed a race condition in the REPL bridge where new messages could arrive at the server interleaved with historical messages during the initial connection flush, causing message ordering issues.
2335- Fixed memory leak where long-running teammates retained all messages in AppState even after conversation compaction
2336- Fixed a memory leak where MCP server fetch caches were not cleared on disconnect, causing growing memory usage with servers that reconnect frequently
2337- Improved memory usage in long sessions with subagents by stripping heavy progress message payloads during context compaction
2338- Added "Always copy full response" option to the `/copy` picker. When selected, future `/copy` commands will skip the code block picker and copy the full response directly.
2339- VSCode: Added session rename and remove actions to the sessions list
2340- Fixed `/clear` not resetting cached skills, which could cause stale skill content to persist in the new conversation
2341
2342## 2.1.62
2343
2344- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates
2345
2346## 2.1.61
2347
2348- Fixed concurrent writes corrupting config file on Windows
2349
2350## 2.1.59
2351
2352- Claude automatically saves useful context to auto-memory. Manage with /memory
2353- Added `/copy` command to show an interactive picker when code blocks are present, allowing selection of individual code blocks or the full response.
2354- Improved "always allow" prefix suggestions for compound bash commands (e.g. `cd /tmp && git fetch && git push`) to compute smarter per-subcommand prefixes instead of treating the whole command as one
2355- Improved ordering of short task lists
2356- Improved memory usage in multi-agent sessions by releasing completed subagent task state
2357- Fixed MCP OAuth token refresh race condition when running multiple Claude Code instances simultaneously
2358- Fixed shell commands not showing a clear error message when the working directory has been deleted
2359- Fixed config file corruption that could wipe authentication when multiple Claude Code instances ran simultaneously
2360

2362
2363- Expand Remote Control to more users
2364
2365## 2.1.56
2366
2367- VS Code: Fixed another cause of "command 'claude-vscode.editor.openLast' not found" crashes
2368
2369## 2.1.55
2370
2371- Fixed BashTool failing on Windows with EINVAL error
2372
2373## 2.1.53
2374
2375- Fixed a UI flicker where user input would briefly disappear after submission before the message rendered
2376- Fixed bulk agent kill (ctrl+f) to send a single aggregate notification instead of one per agent, and to properly clear the command queue
2377- Fixed graceful shutdown sometimes leaving stale sessions when using Remote Control by parallelizing teardown network calls
2378- Fixed `--worktree` sometimes being ignored on first launch
2379- Fixed a panic ("switch on corrupted value") on Windows
2380- Fixed a crash that could occur when spawning many processes on Windows
2381- Fixed a crash in the WebAssembly interpreter on Linux x64 & Windows x64
2382- Fixed a crash that sometimes occurred after 2 minutes on Windows ARM64
2383
2384## 2.1.52
2385
2386- VS Code: Fixed extension crash on Windows ("command 'claude-vscode.editor.openLast' not found")
2387
2388## 2.1.51
2389
2390- Added `claude remote-control` subcommand for external builds, enabling local environment serving for all users.
2391- Updated plugin marketplace default git timeout from 30s to 120s and added `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS` to configure.
2392- Added support for custom npm registries and specific version pinning when installing plugins from npm sources
2393- BashTool now skips login shell (`-l` flag) by default when a shell snapshot is available, improving command execution performance. Previously this required setting `CLAUDE_BASH_NO_LOGIN=true`.
2394- Fixed a security issue where `statusLine` and `fileSuggestion` hook commands could execute without workspace trust acceptance in interactive mode.
2395- Tool results larger than 50K characters are now persisted to disk (previously 100K). This reduces context window usage and improves conversation longevity.
2396- Fixed a bug where duplicate `control_response` messages (e.g. from WebSocket reconnects) could cause API 400 errors by pushing duplicate assistant messages into the conversation.
2397- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_ACCOUNT_UUID`, `CLAUDE_CODE_USER_EMAIL`, and `CLAUDE_CODE_ORGANIZATION_UUID` environment variables for SDK callers to provide account info synchronously, eliminating a race condition where early telemetry events lacked account metadata.
2398- Fixed slash command autocomplete crashing when a plugin's SKILL.md description is a YAML array or other non-string type
2399- The `/model` picker now shows human-readable labels (e.g., "Sonnet 4.5") instead of raw model IDs for pinned model versions, with an upgrade hint when a newer version is available.
2400- Managed settings can now be set via macOS plist or Windows Registry. Learn more at https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings#settings-files
2401
2402## 2.1.50
2403
2404- Added support for `startupTimeout` configuration for LSP servers
2405- Added `WorktreeCreate` and `WorktreeRemove` hook events, enabling custom VCS setup and teardown when agent worktree isolation creates or removes worktrees.
2406- Fixed a bug where resumed sessions could be invisible when the working directory involved symlinks, because the session storage path was resolved at different times during startup. Also fixed session data loss on SSH disconnect by flushing session data before hooks and analytics in the graceful shutdown sequence.
2407- Linux: Fixed native modules not loading on systems with glibc older than 2.30 (e.g., RHEL 8)
2408- Fixed memory leak in agent teams where completed teammate tasks were never garbage collected from session state
2409- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE` to fully strip down skills, session memory, custom agents, and CLAUDE.md token counting
2410- Fixed `/mcp reconnect` freezing the CLI when given a server name that doesn't exist
2411- Fixed memory leak where completed task state objects were never removed from AppState
2412- Added support for `isolation: worktree` in agent definitions, allowing agents to declaratively run in isolated git worktrees.
2413- `CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE` mode now also disables MCP tools, attachments, hooks, and CLAUDE.md file loading for a fully minimal experience.
2414- Fixed bug where MCP tools were not discovered when tool search is enabled and a prompt is passed in as a launch argument
2415- Improved memory usage during long sessions by clearing internal caches after compaction
2416- Added `claude agents` CLI command to list all configured agents
2417- Improved memory usage during long sessions by clearing large tool results after they have been processed
2418- Fixed a memory leak where LSP diagnostic data was never cleaned up after delivery, causing unbounded memory growth in long sessions

2420- Improved startup performance for headless mode (`-p` flag) by deferring Yoga WASM and UI component imports
2421- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates
2422- Fixed unbounded memory growth in long sessions by capping file history snapshots
2423- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_1M_CONTEXT` environment variable to disable 1M context window support
2424- Opus 4.6 (fast mode) now includes the full 1M context window
2425- VSCode: Added `/extra-usage` command support in VS Code sessions
2426- Fixed memory leak where TaskOutput retained recent lines after cleanup
2427- Fixed memory leak in CircularBuffer where cleared items were retained in the backing array
2428- Fixed memory leak in shell command execution where ChildProcess and AbortController references were retained after cleanup
2429
2430## 2.1.49
2431
2432- Improved MCP OAuth authentication with step-up auth support and discovery caching, reducing redundant network requests during server connections
2433- Added `--worktree` (`-w`) flag to start Claude in an isolated git worktree
2434- Subagents support `isolation: "worktree"` for working in a temporary git worktree
2435- Added Ctrl+F keybinding to kill background agents (two-press confirmation)
2436- Agent definitions support `background: true` to always run as a background task
2437- Plugins can ship `settings.json` for default configuration
2438- Fixed file-not-found errors to suggest corrected paths when the model drops the repo folder
2439- Fixed Ctrl+C and ESC being silently ignored when background agents are running and the main thread is idle. Pressing twice within 3 seconds now kills all background agents.
2440- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates.
2441- Fixed `plugin enable` and `plugin disable` to auto-detect the correct scope when `--scope` is not specified, instead of always defaulting to user scope
2442- Simple mode (`CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE`) now includes the file edit tool in addition to the Bash tool, allowing direct file editing in simple mode.
2443- Permission suggestions are now populated when safety checks trigger an ask response, enabling SDK consumers to display permission options
2444- Sonnet 4.5 with 1M context is being removed from the Max plan in favor of our frontier Sonnet 4.6 model, which now has 1M context. Please switch in /model.
2445- Fixed verbose mode not updating thinking block display when toggled via `/config` — memo comparators now correctly detect verbose changes
2446- Fixed unbounded WASM memory growth during long sessions by periodically resetting the tree-sitter parser
2447- Fixed potential rendering issues caused by stale yoga layout references
2448- Improved performance in non-interactive mode (`-p`) by skipping unnecessary API calls during startup
2449- Improved performance by caching authentication failures for HTTP and SSE MCP servers, avoiding repeated connection attempts to servers requiring auth
2450- Fixed unbounded memory growth during long-running sessions caused by Yoga WASM linear memory never shrinking
2451- SDK model info now includes `supportsEffort`, `supportedEffortLevels`, and `supportsAdaptiveThinking` fields so consumers can discover model capabilities.
2452- Added `ConfigChange` hook event that fires when configuration files change during a session, enabling enterprise security auditing and optional blocking of settings changes.
2453- Improved startup performance by caching MCP auth failures to avoid redundant connection attempts
2454- Improved startup performance by reducing HTTP calls for analytics token counting
2455- Improved startup performance by batching MCP tool token counting into a single API call
2456- Fixed `disableAllHooks` setting to respect managed settings hierarchy — non-managed settings can no longer disable managed hooks set by policy (#26637)
2457- Fixed `--resume` session picker showing raw XML tags for sessions that start with commands like `/clear`. Now correctly falls through to the session ID fallback.
2458- Improved permission prompts for path safety and working directory blocks to show the reason for the restriction instead of a bare prompt with no context
2459
2460## 2.1.47
2461
2462- Fixed FileWriteTool line counting to preserve intentional trailing blank lines instead of stripping them with `trimEnd()`.
2463- Fixed Windows terminal rendering bugs caused by `os.EOL` (`\r\n`) in display code — line counts now show correct values instead of always showing 1 on Windows.
2464- Improved VS Code plan preview: auto-updates as Claude iterates, enables commenting only when the plan is ready for review, and keeps the preview open when rejecting so Claude can revise.
2465- Fixed a bug where bold and colored text in markdown output could shift to the wrong characters on Windows due to `\r\n` line endings.
2466- Fixed compaction failing when conversation contains many PDF documents by stripping document blocks alongside images before sending to the compaction API (anthropics/claude-code#26188)
2467- Improved memory usage in long-running sessions by releasing API stream buffers, agent context, and skill state after use
2468- Improved startup performance by deferring SessionStart hook execution, reducing time-to-interactive by ~500ms.
2469- Fixed an issue where bash tool output was silently discarded on Windows when using MSYS2 or Cygwin shells.
2470- Improved performance of `@` file mentions - file suggestions now appear faster by pre-warming the index on startup and using session-based caching with background refresh.
2471- Improved memory usage by trimming agent task message history after tasks complete
2472- Improved memory usage during long agent sessions by eliminating O(n²) message accumulation in progress updates
2473- Fixed the bash permission classifier to validate that returned match descriptions correspond to actual input rules, preventing hallucinated descriptions from incorrectly granting permissions
2474- Fixed user-defined agents only loading one file on NFS/FUSE filesystems that report zero inodes (anthropics/claude-code#26044)
2475- Fixed plugin agent skills silently failing to load when referenced by bare name instead of fully-qualified plugin name (anthropics/claude-code#25834)
2476- Search patterns in collapsed tool results are now displayed in quotes for clarity
2477- Windows: Fixed CWD tracking temp files never being cleaned up, causing them to accumulate indefinitely (anthropics/claude-code#17600)
2478- Use `ctrl+f` to kill all background agents instead of double-pressing ESC. Background agents now continue running when you press ESC to cancel the main thread, giving you more control over agent lifecycle.
2479- Fixed API 400 errors ("thinking blocks cannot be modified") that occurred in sessions with concurrent agents, caused by interleaved streaming content blocks preventing proper message merging.
2480- Simplified teammate navigation to use only Shift+Down (with wrapping) instead of both Shift+Up and Shift+Down.
2481- Fixed an issue where a single file write/edit error would abort all other parallel file write/edit operations. Independent file mutations now complete even when a sibling fails.
2482- Added `last_assistant_message` field to Stop and SubagentStop hook inputs, providing the final assistant response text so hooks can access it without parsing transcript files.
2483- Fixed custom session titles set via `/rename` being lost after resuming a conversation (anthropics/claude-code#23610)
2484- Fixed collapsed read/search hint text overflowing on narrow terminals by truncating from the start.
2485- Fixed an issue where bash commands with backslash-newline continuation lines (e.g., long commands split across multiple lines with `\`) would produce spurious empty arguments, potentially breaking command execution.
2486- Fixed built-in slash commands (`/help`, `/model`, `/compact`, etc.) being hidden from the autocomplete dropdown when many user skills are installed (anthropics/claude-code#22020)
2487- Fixed MCP servers not appearing in the MCP Management Dialog after deferred loading
2488- Fixed session name persisting in status bar after `/clear` command (anthropics/claude-code#26082)
2489- Fixed crash when a skill's `name` or `description` in SKILL.md frontmatter is a bare number (e.g., `name: 3000`) — the value is now properly coerced to a string (anthropics/claude-code#25837)
2490- Fixed /resume silently dropping sessions when the first message exceeds 16KB or uses array-format content (anthropics/claude-code#25721)
2491- Added `chat:newline` keybinding action for configurable multi-line input (anthropics/claude-code#26075)
2492- Added `added_dirs` to the statusline JSON `workspace` section, exposing directories added via `/add-dir` to external scripts (anthropics/claude-code#26096)
2493- Fixed `claude doctor` misclassifying mise and asdf-managed installations as native installs (anthropics/claude-code#26033)
2494- Fixed zsh heredoc failing with "read-only file system" error in sandboxed commands (anthropics/claude-code#25990)
2495- Fixed agent progress indicator showing inflated tool use count (anthropics/claude-code#26023)
2496- Fixed image pasting not working on WSL2 systems where Windows copies images as BMP format (anthropics/claude-code#25935)
