1# Changelog
2
3## 2.1.173
4
5- Fixed Fable 5 model names with a `[1m]` suffix not being normalized — Fable 5 includes 1M context by default, so the suffix is now stripped automatically
6- Fixed a spurious "sandbox dependencies missing" startup warning on Windows when sandbox was enabled in settings
7
8## 2.1.172
9
10- Sub-agents can now spawn their own sub-agents (up to 5 levels deep)
11- Amazon Bedrock now reads the AWS region from `~/.aws` config files when `AWS_REGION` isn't set, matching AWS SDK precedence; `/status` shows where the region came from
12- Added a search bar when browsing a marketplace's plugins in `/plugin`
13- Added `model` attribute to the `claude_code.lines_of_code.count` OTEL metric
14- Fixed sessions using 1M context without usage credits getting permanently stuck — the session now automatically compacts back under the standard context limit
15- Fixed a repeating "an image in the conversation could not be processed and was removed" error when the conversation contained multiple images
16- Fixed the agents view keeping a session under Working with a busy spinner for up to 30 seconds after the worker replied
17- Fixed background agents potentially reading another directory's project settings (`.mcp.json` approvals, trust) when dispatched onto a pre-warmed worker
18- Fixed background-session attach failing with EAUTH for sessions started on an older version after the daemon auto-updated
19- Fixed a background sub-agent staying stuck as "active" in the agent panel after a nested agent it spawned was stopped
20- Fixed `/model` suggestions in the `claude agents` dispatch input rendering with a misleading slash prefix and showing models disabled for your org
21- Fixed `availableModels` restrictions not being applied to subagent model overrides, the agent dispatch model picker, and the advisor model
22- Fixed `availableModels` allowlists hiding the `/model` picker's Opus and Sonnet 1M rows when entries use version-specific IDs like `claude-opus-4-8`
23- Fixed the `/model` picker on Bedrock offering models the provider doesn't serve — selecting one silently switched the session model and lit the selection marker on multiple rows
24- Fixed model IDs getting a doubled 1M-context suffix (e.g. `[1M][1m]`) when `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL` already includes one
25- Fixed `opusplan` model setting not shipping with 1M context in plan mode for entitled users; the `opusplan[1m]` workaround now also correctly switches to Opus in plan mode
26- Fixed `WebFetch(domain:*.example.com)` wildcard domain rules never matching subdomains in allow, deny, and ask position, and file permission rules with mid-pattern wildcards (e.g. `Read(secrets-*/config.json)`) being rejected at startup
27- Fixed up-arrow prompt history showing the main agent's prompts while a subagent's chat tab is open
28- Fixed memory recall not finding mounted team memory stores (`CLAUDE_MEMORY_STORES`) in remote sessions
29- Fixed workflow validation rejecting scripts whose prompt strings or comments merely mention `Date.now()`/`Math.random()`
30- Disable mouse tracking on Windows consoles that don't fully support it
31- Fixed the `/plugin` marketplace list losing its cursor after backing out of a long plugin list, and Esc from the plugin browser returning to the wrong tab
32- Improved performance in long conversations by removing redundant message normalization and avoiding full message-history transforms when streaming tool-use state is unchanged
33- Reduced idle CPU usage: `/goal` status chip no longer re-renders the terminal at 5 Hz while idle, and fewer UI re-renders while subagents run in parallel
34- Improved Claude in Chrome tool loading: browser tools now load in a single batched call instead of one per tool
35- Improved the non-interactive Usage Policy refusal message to suggest starting a new session or changing your model
36- `/code-review` now keeps the `ultra` option visible when you're not signed in to claude.ai, with an explanation that the cloud review requires a claude.ai account
37- Shortened the Remote Control footer indicator to "/rc active" and hid it on narrow terminals
38- Stopped promoting `/loop` in remote sessions, where pending loops don't keep the container alive
39- [VSCode] Fixed PowerShell tool calls rendering as raw JSON instead of a proper command display and permission dialog, and stripped ANSI escape codes from displayed shell output
40
41## 2.1.170
42
43- Introducing Claude Fable 5: a Mythos-class model that we’ve made safe for general use. Fable’s capabilities exceed those of any model we’ve ever made generally available. Update to version 2.1.170 for access. https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-fable-5-mythos-5
44- Fixed sessions not saving transcripts (and not appearing in --resume) when launched from the VS Code integrated terminal or any shell that inherited Claude Code environment variables.
45
46## 2.1.169
47
48- Self-hosted runner: added a `post-session` lifecycle hook that runs after the session ends and before the workspace is deleted, so you can snapshot uncommitted work or export logs; also made the child-process SIGTERM→SIGKILL window configurable (default unchanged at 5s)
49- Added `--safe-mode` flag (and `CLAUDE_CODE_SAFE_MODE`) to start Claude Code with all customizations (CLAUDE.md, plugins, skills, hooks, MCP servers) disabled for troubleshooting
50- Added `/cd` command to move a session to a new working directory without breaking the prompt cache mid-session
51- Added a `disableBundledSkills` setting and `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_BUNDLED_SKILLS` environment variable to hide bundled skills, workflows, and built-in slash commands from the model
52- Fixed Up/Down arrows jumping to command history past the wrapped rows of a long input line — they now move through each visual row first, and history recall enters at the near edge
53- Fixed enterprise managed MCP policies (`allowedMcpServers`/`deniedMcpServers`) not being enforced on reconnect, IDE-typed configs, `--mcp-config` servers during the first session after install, or before remote settings loaded; also fixed slow cold starts for orgs without remote settings
54- Fixed a ~30-50ms UI stall at the start of each turn for macOS users logged in with claude.ai credentials
55- Fixed `claude -p` being slow or appearing to hang on Windows while waiting for the slash-command/skill scan (regression in 2.1.161)
56- Fixed Remote Control getting stuck on "reconnecting" after resuming a session when an OAuth token refresh happened at the same time
57- Fixed Git Credential Manager's "Connect to GitHub" popup appearing on Windows at startup when background git commands ran without cached credentials
58- Fixed footer hints (e.g. "esc to interrupt") not showing for users with a custom statusline
59- Fixed stale permission and dialog prompts reappearing every time you reattached to a remote session whose worker had died while waiting on them
60- Fixed `claude agents --json` omitting blocked and just-dispatched background sessions; added `--all` to include completed sessions, plus new `id` and `state` fields
61- Fixed agents view leaving a stale/garbled frame after navigating back from an agent on WSL in Windows Terminal
62- Fixed background agents ignoring project-level settings `env` values (e.g. `ANTHROPIC_MODEL`) when dispatched onto a pre-warmed worker
63- Fixed MCPB plugin cache being spuriously invalidated on Windows, causing unnecessary re-extraction
64- Fixed plugin `.in_use` PID lock files accumulating without bound; stale markers from crashed sessions are now swept once per day
65- Fixed untrusted project settings being able to set OTEL client-certificate paths without trust confirmation
66- `/workflows` now opens immediately even while a turn is in progress
67- Improved `TaskCreate` reliability: malformed inputs are repaired automatically and validation errors for unloaded tools include the schema
68- Improved the error message shown when your organization has disabled API key authentication, with guidance based on where the active API key comes from
69- Reduced CPU usage while responses stream and during spinner animations
70- Restored a default 5-minute idle timeout on Vertex/Foundry so a stalled stream aborts instead of hanging indefinitely; set `API_FORCE_IDLE_TIMEOUT=0` to opt out
71- Remote-managed settings with an invalid entry now apply their remaining valid policies and surface the validation error, instead of silently dropping the whole payload
72- Background sessions now preserve `--ide`, `--chrome`, `--bare`, `--remote-control`, and other flags across retire→wake, and respawn state validation was hardened
73- Background sessions are now told that shared-checkout edits are blocked until they enter a worktree, avoiding a wasted rejected edit before `EnterWorktree`
74- The "CLAUDE.md is too long" warning threshold now scales with the model's context window
75- Auto-updater on Windows now stops retrying within a session once `claude.exe` is held by another process
76- Improved color contrast for skill tags in the slash-command menu
77- Promo credit claims for Apple/Google-billed subscribers without a payment method now explain where to add one
78- Added a tip suggesting `claude agents` when running multiple concurrent sessions
79
80## 2.1.168

82- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
83
84## 2.1.167

86- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
87
88## 2.1.166
89
90- 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
91- 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
92- 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
93- `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)
94- 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
95- `claude update` now announces the target version before downloading instead of going silent
96- `claude agents`: typing a URL into the list now filters to the session whose first prompt contained it
97- Fixed a recurring "image could not be processed" error and extra token usage when an unprocessable image was sent in a session
98- Fixed remote sessions becoming permanently stuck when a brief backend disruption occurred during worker registration at startup
99- Fixed flickering in JetBrains IDE terminals (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc.) on 2026.1+ by enabling synchronized output
100- Fixed Shift+non-ASCII characters (e.g. Shift+ä → Ä) being dropped in terminals using the Kitty keyboard protocol (WezTerm, Ghostty, kitty)
101- Fixed PowerShell command validation occasionally hanging far past its time budget on Windows when a killed process's children held its output pipes
102- Fixed orphaned `claude --bg-pty-host` processes spinning at 100% CPU after the daemon dies while connected on macOS
103- Fixed voice mode requiring `/login` to clear a stale auth check after toggling `/voice`
104- Fixed managed settings with an invalid entry silently disabling enforcement of their remaining valid policies
105- Fixed managed-settings `allowedMcpServers`/`deniedMcpServers` predicates not matching when they use `${VAR}` references
106- Fixed background agent sessions that entered a git worktree crash-looping with "No conversation found" when reopened from `claude agents`
107- Fixed duplicated thinking text in the Ctrl+O transcript view while streaming
108- Fixed `/doctor` showing a contradictory failed "Not inside a remote session" check when run inside a remote session
109- Fixed the cursor sticking at the end of the first line when typing a multiline prompt in the `claude agents` dispatch and reply inputs
110- Fixed blank lines appearing between background agent rows in the task list on terminals without Unicode support
111
112## 2.1.165
113
114- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
115
116## 2.1.163
117
118- Added `requiredMinimumVersion` and `requiredMaximumVersion` managed settings — Claude Code refuses to start if its version is outside the allowed range and directs the user to an approved version
119- Added `/plugin list` command to list installed plugins, with `--enabled`/`--disabled` filters
120- Added a "c to copy" shortcut to `/btw` that copies the raw markdown answer to the clipboard, preserving formatting when pasted elsewhere
121- Hooks: Stop and SubagentStop hooks can now return `hookSpecificOutput.additionalContext` to give Claude feedback and keep the turn going without being labeled a hook error
122- Skills: added `\$` escape syntax to include a literal `$` before a digit in command bodies
123- stdio MCP servers now receive the same `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` as hooks/Bash on `--resume`
124- 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
125- Fixed `claude -p` failing with "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY required" on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry when `CI=true` and no Anthropic API key is set
126- Fixed bash commands failing under bazel and EDR-protected Go workflows: `$TMPDIR` was overridden to `/tmp/claude-{uid}` for all commands instead of only sandboxed ones (regression in 2.1.154)
127- Fixed Bash commands failing on Windows with "EEXIST: file already exists" on the session-env directory when it has the read-only attribute or is inside OneDrive
128- Fixed org-managed permission rules not applying for the entire session when the managed settings fetch completed during startup on a fresh config directory
129- Fixed background sessions in `claude agents` losing their running background tasks when reattached after a Claude Code update
130- Fixed terminal misalignment and a multi-second hang when exiting the agent view by pressing Esc
131- Fixed clicking Stop on a background-task chip in the desktop app not clearing the chip when the underlying process was already gone
132- Fixed keyboard input becoming permanently unresponsive after a paste operation whose end marker is dropped by the terminal
133- Fixed hook `if: "Bash(...)"` conditions firing on every Bash command containing `$()` or `$VAR`; the pattern now matches against commands inside subshells and backticks too
134- Fixed deny rules on home-directory paths (e.g. `Read(~/Desktop/**)`) not blocking Bash commands that reference the path via `$HOME`
135- Fixed a stray "(no content)" line left in the transcript after closing panel dialogs like /mcp and /plugins
136- 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
137- Clearer descriptions for built-in commands and skills in the / menu
138- The subscription-switch suggestion now shows in the startup announcement slot instead of a toast
139- `claude agents` dispatching from the state-grouped view now starts the session in the directory the agent view was opened from
140
141## 2.1.162
142
143- `claude agents --json` now includes `waitingFor` showing what a waiting session is blocked on (e.g. permission prompt)
144- `--tools`: explicitly listing Grep/Glob now provides the dedicated search tools on native builds with embedded search (previously these names were silently ignored)
145- `/effort` now confirms when your chosen level will persist as the default for new sessions
146- Clicking a slash command in the autocomplete menu now fills it into your prompt instead of running it immediately; press Enter to run
147- Remote Control now shows as a persistent footer pill (with a link to the session) instead of a startup message
148- Renamed Windsurf to Devin Desktop in the `/ide` menu, `/terminal-setup`, and `/scroll-speed`, following the editor's rebrand
149- 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
150- 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
151- 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
152- 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
153- Fixed API 400 `no low surrogate in string` errors for classifier side-queries and MCP server descriptions containing emoji near a truncation boundary
154- 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
155- Fixed the LSP tool's `workspaceSymbol` operation returning no results; it now accepts a `query` parameter and passes it to the language server
156- 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
157- Fixed `claude agents` truncating long session names at 40 columns; the name column now grows with terminal width
158- Fixed `claude agents` attach occasionally bouncing straight back to the session list on the first try after a background-service restart
159- 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
160- 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
161- Fixed replies from the agents view that fail to send being lost; they are now queued for delivery on the next session start
162- Fixed cross-session messaging (`SendMessage`) silently breaking when `CLAUDE_CODE_TMPDIR` or `$TMPDIR` points at a deep directory
163- Fixed opening a running background session from `claude agents` stalling for 5 seconds before attaching
164- Quieter startup: notices group by severity, and session info and announcements share a single line per launch
165- Startup warnings rewritten to be shorter and clearer, each with a concrete fix
166- Launch-prompt warnings (deep link/pre-filled prompt) now stay pinned below the input until you act instead of scrolling away
167- Failed turns now show a compact warning line instead of a multi-line red error block
168- Improved background service startup and `claude update` verification to wait out endpoint-security scanning of new binaries instead of failing after 5 seconds
169- Background dispatch spawn failures now report the error class name when no errno is available
170- 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
171
172## 2.1.161
173
174- `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
175- `claude agents` rows now show `done/total` before the detail when work is fanned out; peek shows the longest-running item
176- `/mcp` now collapses claude.ai connectors you've never signed in to behind a "Show unused connectors" row
177- Parallel tool calls: a failed Bash command no longer cancels other calls in the same batch — each tool returns its own result independently
178- 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
179- Fixed the `/effort` dialog, workflow animations, and prompt keyword shimmer not honoring the "Reduce motion" setting
180- Fixed `forceLoginOrgUUID`/`forceLoginMethod` managed-settings policies blocking third-party provider sessions (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, Mantle) alongside the org pin (regression in 2.1.146)
181- Fixed background subagent output corrupting `claude -p` stdout when using `--output-format text` or `json`
182- Fixed `/usage-credits` starting a re-login for Team and Enterprise admins instead of pointing to the organization's usage settings page
183- Fixed `/autofix-pr` reporting "cannot run on the default branch" when the session is inside a git worktree or another repository
184- Fixed `--resume` picker not showing sessions from the current directory when it isn't a git worktree (e.g., jj workspaces)
185- Fixed Windows hooks that invoke bash explicitly (e.g., `/usr/bin/bash script.sh`) failing with "command not found" or "cannot execute binary file"
186- Fixed OpenTelemetry log events (`user_prompt`, `api_request`, `tool_result`, `tool_decision`) being silently dropped when emitted before telemetry initialization completed
187- 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
188- Fixed Workflow agents spawned with `isolation: "worktree"` in background sessions being blocked from editing files inside their own worktree
189- Fixed background sessions dispatched from `claude agents` booting on a stale model from the daemon's environment instead of the model in `settings.json`
190- Fixed a potential crash when rendering Write tool results after resuming a session
191- Fixed completed subagents getting stuck showing as running when an error occurs while finalizing their result
192- Fixed `EADDRINUSE` errors from tools that bind Unix sockets under `$TMPDIR` when `CLAUDE_CODE_TMPDIR` is set to a deep path
193- Improved terminal rendering performance by stabilizing the layout engine's JIT compilation profile
194- Improved rendering performance for large file writes
195- [VSCode] Added a tip suggesting disabling terminal GPU acceleration (or running `/terminal-setup`) to fix garbled glyphs
196
197## 2.1.160
198
199- Added a prompt before writing to shell startup files (`.zshenv`, `.zlogin`, `.bash_login`) and `~/.config/git/`, which could otherwise lead to unintended command execution
200- `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.)
201- 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
202- 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
203- Fixed restoring a completed session from `claude agents` dropping chat history and re-running the original prompt
204- Fixed background sessions re-attached after overnight retire losing their conversation and re-running the original prompt
205- Fixed `claude --bg` occasionally failing with "socket missing" when the background daemon was cold-starting on a loaded machine
206- 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
207- Fixed background agents that resumed work being shown under Completed in the agents list
208- Fixed `claude agents` freezing for several seconds when returning to the session list due to the auto-updater re-checking on every exit
209- 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
210- 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
211- Fixed mouse wheel scrolling prompt history instead of the transcript right after opening a session from the agents list
212- Fixed CJK IME composition appearing at the bottom-left of the screen instead of at the input caret in the `claude agents` view
213- Fixed valid `file:///C:/...` links being rewritten to a broken path on Windows terminals with hyperlink support
214- Fixed voice mode failing to connect when the project directory or branch name contains non-ASCII or special characters
215- 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
216- 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
217- Fixed model-not-found errors suggesting `--model` when running via the SDK or other hosts where the CLI flag doesn't apply
218- Fixed Claude's past replies disappearing from scrollback when resuming a brief mode session with brief mode turned off
219- Fixed vim mode `p` pasting on the line below instead of at the cursor when the register was yanked with `v$`
220- Improved performance of opening recently-inactive background agent sessions in `claude agents`
221- Improved auto mode classifier latency by reducing reasoning on routine actions, lowering the chance of "could not evaluate this action" blocks
222- Improved background-session teardown (`claude rm`/`stop`, idle reap) to send SIGTERM to running shell subprocesses before SIGKILL, so cleanup handlers run
223- Removed `CLAUDE_CODE_OPUS_4_6_FAST_MODE_OVERRIDE`; the environment variable is now a no-op
224- Removed the JetBrains plugin install suggestion from startup
225- 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
226
227## 2.1.159
228
229- Internal infrastructure improvements (no user-facing changes)
230
231## 2.1.158
232
233- 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`
234
235## 2.1.157
236
237- Plugins in `.claude/skills` directories are now automatically loaded, no marketplace required
238- Added `claude plugin init <name>` to scaffold a new plugin in `.claude/skills`
239- Added autocomplete for `/plugin` arguments: subcommands, installed plugin names, and plugins from known marketplaces
240- `claude agents`: the `agent` field in `settings.json` is now honored for dispatched sessions, with `--agent <name>` to override it
241- `EnterWorktree` can now switch between Claude-managed worktrees mid-session
242- `tool_decision` telemetry events now include `tool_parameters` (bash commands, MCP/skill names) when `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1`
243- Worktrees managed by Claude are now left unlocked when the agent finishes, so `git worktree remove`/`prune` can clean them up
244- Fixed unprocessable images (zero-byte, corrupt) attached via paste, MCP, or dialog crashing the request instead of becoming a text placeholder
245- Fixed sandbox network permission prompts appearing in auto and bypass-permissions mode when using the desktop app, IDE extensions, or SDK
246- Fixed `claude agents` completed sessions not retiring when an idle subagent was still parked or had leaked a backgrounded shell
247- Fixed `claude agents` pressing Esc not cancelling a slow "opening…", leaving the list unresponsive
248- Fixed background agent worktrees under `.claude/worktrees/` being orphaned after the 30-day job retention sweep
249- Fixed background sessions re-attached after a sleep/wake not telling the model the correct date
250- Fixed copy-on-select in `claude agents` not reaching the system clipboard inside tmux with `set-clipboard on` (regression in 2.1.153)
251- Fixed `--resume` not reporting background subagents that were running when the previous Claude Code process exited
252- Fixed the `--resume` session picker leaving its contents on the terminal after exiting in fullscreen mode
253- Fixed `--worktree` and `--worktree --tmux` returning to the canonical repo root instead of the current linked worktree
254- 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
255- Fixed literal markdown markers (backticks, asterisks) appearing in the in-progress message text in fullscreen mode
256- Fixed the terminal freezing after approving the managed-settings security dialog at startup
257- Fixed a rare duplicate line appearing in scrollback after the terminal UI redraws
258- Fixed right-click paste duplicating the clipboard in the VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf integrated terminals
259- WSL: fixed image paste (`alt+v` keybinding), screenshot paste on Windows 11, and added support for dragging images from Windows Explorer
260- Improved performance of long and resumed conversations by eliminating redundant message-rendering recomputations
261- `/terminal-setup` now disables GPU acceleration in VS Code/Cursor/Windsurf integrated terminals to prevent garbled-text rendering
262- The Feature of the Week credit-claim status now appears as a notification in the status area instead of a line above the prompt
263- `claude agents`: slash-command autocomplete in the dispatch input now matches substrings
264- Removed the "bash commands will be sandboxed" startup banner — sandbox status still shows in `/status` and when a command is blocked
265- Removed the "/ide for …" startup hint toast
266- [IDE] Fixed clicking Stop while a background subagent is running not actually stopping it
267- [VSCode] Fixed the fast mode indicator not appearing on Opus 4.8
268- Pressing backspace right after a workflow trigger keyword now dismisses the workflow request (same as alt+w) instead of deleting a character
269- Added a "Workflow keyword trigger" setting in /config to stop the word "workflow" in a prompt from triggering a dynamic workflow
270
271## 2.1.156
272
273- Fixed an issue when using Opus 4.8 where thinking blocks were modified, leading to API errors.
274
275## 2.1.154
276
277- Opus 4.8 is here! Now defaults to high effort · /effort xhigh for your hardest tasks
278- 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
279- 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
280- The lean system prompt is now the default for all models except Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus 4.7 and earlier
281- 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
282- `/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
283- Renamed the `/effort` slider labels from "Speed"/"Intelligence" to "Faster"/"Smarter" for clarity
284- `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>'`
285- `claude agents`: `/logout` now signs you out instead of being sent to a background session
286- `←←` to open the agents view now works on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, and with telemetry disabled
287- Claude in Chrome: pick which connected browser to use via `/chrome` → "Select browser…", or in-chat when a browser action runs with multiple connected
288- 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
289- The `/plugin` Discover tab now pins plugins whose relevance signals match the current directory with a "suggested for this directory" annotation
290- Streaming tool execution is now always enabled, including when telemetry is disabled or on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry (previously behind a feature flag)
291- Stdio MCP server subprocesses now receive `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` and `CLAUDECODE=1` in their environment
292- `claude mcp list`/`get` now show unapproved `.mcp.json` servers as `⏸ Pending approval` instead of auto-approving and connecting when output is piped
293- `/remote-control` autocomplete now shows "Disconnect Remote Control" when Remote Control is already active
294- Added Claude Opus 4.8 support and 4.7 → 4.8 migration guidance to the `/claude-api` skill
295- 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`
296- Improved the auto-mode classifier's detection of data exfiltration, particularly bulk transfers of repository contents
297- Fixed `rm -rf $HOME` not being blocked as a dangerous path when `HOME` has a trailing slash
298- Fixed `$TMPDIR` resolving to different directories in sandboxed vs unsandboxed Bash commands within the same session
299- Fixed unreadable highlighted-row text in `claude agents` when the Claude Code theme doesn't match the terminal background
300- Fixed background-agent completion notifications triggering premature "out of context" behavior on some 1M-context models
301- Fixed background-session classifier losing the user's goal when a scheduled `/command` fires
302- Fixed pinned background sessions respawning every minute after a Claude Code update, causing repeated agent-start notifications and process churn at idle
303- Fixed background sessions stuck at "blocked", "running", or "working" not retiring after the idle grace period
304- Fixed subagents in background sessions bypassing the worktree-isolation guard and writing to the shared checkout
305- Fixed orphaned `claude --bg-pty-host` processes spinning at 100% CPU after the daemon exits on macOS
306- Fixed number key shortcuts not working for options shown below the divider in option dialogs
307- 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
308- Fixed a stray leading space on wrapped lines when the previous line ended exactly at the terminal width
309- Fixed intermittent terminal rendering corruption in VS Code by capping the number of distinct colors the thinking spinner produces
310- Fixed plan file names including `[Image #N]` / `[Pasted text #N]` placeholders when a plan-mode prompt starts with pasted images or text
311- 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
312- 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
313- Fixed API 400 errors on models that don't support the effort parameter when `CLAUDE_CODE_ALWAYS_ENABLE_EFFORT` is set
314- 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
315- Removed the stale "& for background" hint from the shortcuts help panel
316- [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
317- Fixed the task panel below the prompt showing a stray unselectable "main" row when only a workflow is running
318- Fixed /mcp tools list and tool detail rendering when MCP servers have long or multi-line tool names or long descriptions
319- 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
320- Fixed auto mode incorrectly blocking actions with "could not evaluate this action" when the safety classifier ran out of output tokens while reasoning
321
322## 2.1.153
323
324- Added `skipLfs` option to `github`/`git` plugin marketplace sources to skip Git LFS downloads during clone and update
325- Claude Code now shows a one-time notice when your npm global install can't auto-update; `/doctor` lists the fixes
326- Status line commands now receive `COLUMNS` and `LINES` environment variables so scripts can size output to the terminal width
327- `claude agents`: autocomplete in the dispatch input now suggests native slash commands and bundled skills, not just project skills
328- `claude agents`: PR column now shows `PR #N` for a single PR or `N PRs` for multiple
329- `claude doctor` now shows the result of your last update attempt
330- Combined the separate "needs authentication" startup notifications for MCP servers and connectors into a single message
331- macOS: background agents now appear as "Claude Code" in Privacy & Security and keep their permission grants across upgrades
332- Fixed stateful MCP servers without the optional GET SSE stream reconnect-looping on `tools/list` (regression in v2.1.147)
333- Fixed a regression where a custom API gateway could receive the user's Anthropic OAuth credential instead of the gateway's own token
334- 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
335- `--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
336- Fixed the Windows PowerShell installer reporting "Installation complete!" when installation actually failed
337- Fixed `claude update` installing the latest version instead of the configured release channel's version for npm installations
338- Fixed excessive memory usage (multiple GB) when resuming a session by transcript file path on machines with many stored sessions
339- Fixed `claude agents` and `claude --bg` running on a stale daemon started before binary-takeover support, even after upgrading
340- 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
341- Fixed malformed `file://` links in Claude's responses not being clickable in the terminal
342- Fixed `claude --help` rendering unwrapped output on terminals narrower than 92 columns
343- Fixed MCP tool progress notifications not rendering in the collapsed tool view
344- Fixed `Agent` tool with `subagent_type: 'claude'` running in an undocumented temporary worktree, which could silently discard outputs written to gitignored paths
345- `/bg` while Claude is responding now continues the response in the background session instead of dropping it
346- Fixed `/btw` keyboard shortcuts becoming unresponsive in background sessions while a task is running
347- Fixed background sessions writing temp files to `$CLAUDE_JOB_DIR` triggering a "sensitive file" permission prompt
348- Fixed recovering a background agent whose working directory was deleted showing a truncated stack trace instead of a clear error message
349- Fixed `EnterWorktree` not being available immediately in background sessions (previously required `ToolSearch` first)
350- Fixed `cmd+k` in iTerm2/Terminal.app not repainting attached background sessions
351- 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
352- Fixed background-color bleed when attaching to a background agent from 256-color-only terminals after the agent had rendered file diffs
353- Fixed `/copy` and copy-on-select silently failing to update the system clipboard when attached to a background session inside tmux
354- Fixed opening `claude agents` with Remote Control enabled leaving zombie session entries on the Code tab after exiting
355- Fixed `/rename` in background sessions not updating the session banner immediately
356- Fixed Windows update rollback: if a Windows update fails, Claude Code now restores the original executable by copy and tells you how to recover
357- [VSCode] Fixed Claude Code processes not shutting down cleanly when VS Code closed on Windows, causing false "unclean exit" reports and orphaned MCP servers
358- `/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.
359- If you customized the `modelPicker:setAsDefault` keybinding, rename it to `modelPicker:thisSessionOnly` in keybindings.json (the `d` action was replaced by `s`)
360
361## 2.1.152
362
363- `/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`
364- Skills and slash commands can now set `disallowed-tools` in frontmatter to remove tools from the model while the skill is active
365- Added `/reload-skills` command to re-scan skill directories without restarting the session
366- `SessionStart` hooks can now return `reloadSkills: true` to re-scan skill directories, making skills installed by the hook available in the same session
367- `SessionStart` hooks can now set the session title via `hookSpecificOutput.sessionTitle` on startup and resume
368- Added a `MessageDisplay` hook event that lets hooks transform or hide assistant message text as it is displayed
369- Added `pluginSuggestionMarketplaces` managed setting: admins can allowlist org marketplaces whose plugins may be suggested via context-aware tips
370- `claude plugin marketplace remove` now accepts `--scope user|project|local` for symmetry with `marketplace add`, `install`, and `uninstall`
371- 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
372- Auto mode no longer requires opt-in consent
373- Vim mode: `/` in NORMAL mode now opens reverse history search (like Ctrl+R), matching bash/zsh vi-mode
374- The `/usage` breakdown now includes large session files; files are scanned with a streaming read so memory usage stays flat
375- 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)
376- 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
377- Simplified the Workflow tool's inline progress display — live agent counts now show only in the persistent workflow status row below the prompt
378- 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
379- Added the session entrypoint as an OpenTelemetry metric attribute (`app.entrypoint`, opt-in via `OTEL_METRICS_INCLUDE_ENTRYPOINT=true`)
380- Fixed terminal styling degrading in very long sessions by recycling the renderer's style pool
381- Fixed the sandbox-enabled warning not appearing in condensed startup mode — it now shows in every layout
382- 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
383- Fixed focus mode showing a spurious "N messages hidden" count on turns with no hidden activity
384- Fixed clicking a link inside an expanded tool result collapsing the section instead of opening the link
385- 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
386- Fixed plugin MCP servers with the same command but different environment variables being incorrectly deduplicated
387- Fixed `/doctor` reporting "marketplace not found" or "plugin not found" for stale `enabledPlugins` entries referencing removed marketplaces or dropped plugins
388- Fixed plugins that track a git branch silently no longer receiving updates after the plugin registry was rebuilt
389- Fixed remote MCP servers failing to connect in Claude Code Remote sessions when the egress proxy is enabled
390- 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
391- Fixed the Agent tool description referencing an agent list that is never delivered when running with `--bare` or with attachments disabled
392- Fixed a background worker crash in `claude agents` when accepting a stale permission prompt after a subagent was cancelled
393- 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
394- Fixed the PushNotification tool incorrectly reporting "Mobile push not sent (Remote Control inactive)" in SDK-hosted sessions when Remote Control is enabled
395- 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
396
397## 2.1.150
398
399- Internal infrastructure improvements (no user-facing changes)
400
401## 2.1.149
402
403- `/usage` now shows a per-category breakdown of what's driving your limits usage — skills, subagents, plugins, and per-MCP-server cost
404- `/diff` detail view can now be scrolled with the keyboard (arrows, `j`/`k`, `PgUp`/`PgDn`, `Space`, `Home`/`End`)
405- Markdown output now renders GFM task list checkboxes (`- [ ] todo` / `- [x] done`) instead of plain bullets
406- Enterprise: added the `allowAllClaudeAiMcps` managed setting to load claude.ai cloud MCP connectors alongside `managed-mcp.json`
407- 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
408- 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)
409- Fixed PowerShell prefix/wildcard allow rules (e.g. `PowerShell(dotnet.exe build *)`) not pre-approving native executables and scripts
410- Fixed a permission-analysis gap where the parser trusted stale variable-tracking values for `PWD`/`OLDPWD`/`DIRSTACK` across `cd`/`pushd`/`popd`
411- Fixed `find` in the Bash tool exhausting the macOS system file/vnode table and crashing the host on large directory trees
412- Fixed the managed-settings approval dialog leaving the terminal frozen after accepting at startup
413- Fixed `/ultraplan` and remote session creation failing with "Could not capture uncommitted changes" when the working tree has no real changes
414- Fixed `otelHeadersHelper` failing silently when the script path contains spaces; helper failures are now reported in `/doctor` and the debug log
415- Fixed the thinking spinner staying amber across tool calls and onto fresh thinking bursts
416- Fixed collapsed Bash output reporting the wrong hidden-line count for outputs with many short lines
417- Fixed slash-command argument-hint clipping trailing typed characters when the hint overflows the input box
418- Fixed argument-hint and progressive arg suggestions not appearing after Tab-completing a skill whose frontmatter `name:` differs from its directory basename
419- Fixed the status bar showing the user's baseline `/effort` setting instead of the effort level applied by skill/agent `effort:` frontmatter
420- Fixed Ctrl+O transcript view freezing at the moment it was opened instead of tailing new messages
421- Fixed editing a recalled prompt-history entry losing the edit when navigating further up/down with arrow keys
422- Fixed `/config` exit summary reporting phantom changes to auto-compact and theme when toggling unrelated settings
423- Fixed `/insights` crashing when cached session-meta files are missing optional fields
424- Fixed malformed PowerShell and History tool calls with missing input being misclassified as reads in transcript collapsing
425- Fixed renaming a Remote Control session from claude.ai or the Claude mobile app not updating the local session name for `claude --resume`
426- Fixed a race where a just-submitted prompt could appear twice in the up-arrow history
427- Fixed tapping the "Jump to bottom" pill in fullscreen mode not dismissing it immediately
428- Improved `/feedback` reports to include the conversation that happened before context compaction, making issues from earlier in long sessions easier to triage
429
430## 2.1.148
431
432- Fixed the Bash tool returning exit code 127 on every command for some users (a regression introduced in 2.1.147)
433
434## 2.1.147
435
436- 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
437- 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
438- 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
439- Improved diff rendering performance for large file edits
440- Prompt history no longer records consecutive duplicate entries — recalling a prompt with arrow-up and submitting it again won't add another copy
441- Fixed enterprise login restrictions (`forceLoginOrgUUID` and `forceLoginMethod` managed-settings) not being enforced against third-party-provider and API-key sessions
442- Fixed `&` in `!` command output displaying as `&amp;`, which broke copy-pasting URLs from commands like `gcloud auth login` on headless machines
443- Fixed unknown slash commands silently doing nothing in headless/SDK mode — they now show an error message
444- Fixed `/help` rendering a broken tab header and showing only one command per page on small terminals when not in fullscreen mode
445- Fixed shell snapshot dropping user functions whose names start with a single underscore, which broke aliases referencing them
446- Fixed plugin agents that declare multiple `Agent(...)` types in `tools:` frontmatter dropping all but the last entry
447- Fixed hook `if` conditions like `PowerShell(git push*)` never matching — only `PowerShell(*)` worked
448- Fixed PowerShell tool dropping output for commands that rely on the default formatter
449- Fixed: on Windows, "Yes, and don't ask again" for a PowerShell script invocation now writes a rule that actually matches on subsequent runs
450- Fixed PowerShell tool failing on Windows with exit code 1 when `pwsh` is installed via winget or the Microsoft Store
451- Fixed `/effort` opening with the slider on the wrong level — it now starts at your current effort
452- Fixed paginating MCP servers dropping resources, templates, and prompts past page 1
453- Fixed full-screen strobing in attached background sessions on Windows Terminal while Claude is streaming
454- Fixed: on Windows, removing a background-job worktree no longer follows NTFS junctions into the main repo
455- Fixed `/background` refusing sessions whose only typed input was a skill or custom slash command
456- 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
457- Fixed `/theme` "New custom theme" and color editor dialogs not responding to Esc
458- Fixed an uncaught exception at the end of streaming sessions when running via the Agent SDK
459- Fixed a rare hang when waiting for scroll to settle on Windows
460- Fixed stale and doubled rows in the agent view list on Windows when background session results contain wide (CJK) characters
461- Fixed pasted text being delivered to agents as an unreadable `[Pasted text #N]` placeholder instead of the actual content
462- Fixed plugin component counts in `claude plugin details` and `/plugin` being doubled when a plugin's manifest listed paths overlapping its default directories
463- Fixed backgrounded sessions re-prompting for tool permissions you already granted with "don't ask again"
464- Fixed GNOME Terminal right-click and middle-click paste not inserting text
465- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_SUBAGENT_MODEL` not applying to teammate processes spawned by agent teams
466- Fixed slash commands followed by a tab or newline being treated as an unknown command
467- Fixed several spacing and layout glitches in the `/plugin`, `/status`, `/mobile`, `/sandbox`, and `/permissions` menus
468- Fixed stripped images prompting the model to repeatedly re-read media that was no longer present
469
470## 2.1.145
471
472- Added `claude agents --json` to list live Claude sessions as JSON for scripting (tmux-resurrect, status bars, session pickers)
473- 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
474- Status line JSON input now includes GitHub repo and PR information when detected
475- `/plugin` Discover and Browse screens now show a plugin's commands, agents, skills, hooks, and MCP/LSP servers before installation
476- `claude agents` terminal tab title now shows the awaiting-input count so an alt-tabbed window tells you when an agent needs attention
477- Slash command and @-mention suggestion list now supports mouse hover and click in fullscreen mode
478- Stop and SubagentStop hook input now includes `background_tasks` and `session_crons` fields
479- Fixed a permission-prompt bypass where bare variable assignments to non-allowlisted environment variables in Bash commands were auto-approved
480- 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
481- Fixed the spinner and elapsed-time display freezing until a keypress after the terminal was resized or refocused
482- Fixed the cross-project resume hint failing in default Windows PowerShell 5.1 — Windows now uses `;` as the command separator
483- Fixed voice push-to-talk not working in the agent view's reply pane
484- Fixed task lists rendering in random order when several tasks are created at once
485- Fixed stale "Failed to install Anthropic marketplace" banner showing when the marketplace is already installed
486- Fixed the PR badge in the footer not updating immediately after `gh pr create` and other PR-state-changing commands run in-session
487- Fixed Agent Teams teammates with non-ASCII names failing every API call due to invalid header encoding
488- Fixed `/review` using a deprecated `projectCards` GraphQL query that errored on repos with Classic Projects
489- Fixed `claude plugin validate` not flagging `skills:` entries that point at a file instead of a directory — the error now suggests the parent directory
490- Fixed an infinite loop where a skill using `context: fork` could repeatedly re-invoke itself instead of running
491- 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
492
493## 2.1.144
494
495- Added `/resume` support for background sessions — sessions started via `claude --bg` or agent view now appear alongside interactive ones, marked with `bg`
496- Added elapsed duration to background subagent completion notifications (e.g. "Agent completed · 3h 2m 5s")
497- The `/plugin` browse and discover panes now show when a plugin was last updated
498- `/model` now changes the model for the current session only; press `d` in the model picker to set a default for new sessions
499- Renamed "extra usage" to "usage credits" across CLI copy; `/extra-usage` is now `/usage-credits` (old name still works)
500- 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
501- 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
502- Fixed progressive terminal display corruption (stale/garbled glyphs) that could appear in very long sessions and only cleared on terminal resize or restart
503- Reduced terminal rendering glitches in VS Code by reducing spinner animation color count
504- 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)
505- 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
506- 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
507- Fixed `/branch` failing with "No conversation to branch" after entering a worktree or in some background sessions
508- Fixed pressing Escape in the AskUserQuestion notes field aborting the turn instead of returning to answer selection
509- Fixed model selection not applying when changed via the IDE model picker or `applyFlagSettings` after startup
510- Resumed sessions now keep the model they were using instead of picking up another session's `/model` choice
511- Fixed Bedrock and Vertex users unable to select "Opus (1M context)" from the `/model` picker (regression in v2.1.129)
512- Fixed remote-session login failing with "Can't access this organization" for users with `forceLoginMethod` and `forceLoginOrgUUID` set
513- Fixed MCP servers with paginated `tools/list` responses only returning the first page, silently dropping tools
514- Fixed MCP images with unsupported MIME types (e.g. SVG) breaking the conversation — now saved to disk and referenced in the tool result
515- Fixed file descriptor exhaustion when a build runs inside a skill directory — non-`.md` files no longer trigger skill reloads
516- Fixed session title being generated from plugin monitor output instead of the user's first prompt
517- Fixed Skill tool failing with permission error in headless mode (regression in v2.1.141)
518- 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
519- 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
520- 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
521- Fixed scrolling in attached background sessions on Windows — PgUp/PgDn, mouse wheel, and Ctrl+O transcript navigation now work
522- Fixed a crash when closing the terminal while attached to a background session
523- Fixed on Windows, pressing ← in `claude agents` leaving the list unresponsive to keyboard input
524- Fixed ghost characters at the left edge when switching panes in Agent View on Windows Terminal with CJK content
525- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve directories added via `/add-dir`
526- Fixed Edit/Write refusing with "background session hasn't isolated its changes yet" right after detaching a session that was already editing in place
527- Fixed `claude respawn <id>` on a stopped background session showing "stopped" instead of running
528- Fixed `/resume` picker not showing sessions forked from a background session
529- 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
530- Fixed background Bash tasks spawned by subagents staying "Running" in SDK task panels after the process exits
531- Fixed completed or stopped background sessions briefly failing to wake being permanently marked as a startup crash
532- Fixed markdown links in `claude agents` attached sessions rendering as plain text instead of clickable hyperlinks
533- Fixed custom `spinnerVerbs` applying to the post-turn duration message — past-tense built-ins like "Worked for 5s" are restored there
534- `claude agents` / `--bg` rejection messages now name the specific gate (non-TTY, env var, or setting) instead of a generic message
535- `claude --bg --name <label>` now echoes the name in the post-spawn confirmation
536- `claude agents`: renaming a background session with Ctrl+R now updates the attached session's banner immediately
537- Background session worktree isolation guard now applies for non-git VCS users with `WorktreeCreate` hooks configured
538- Plugin marketplace add/update now respects `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS`
539- `/plugin` now returns to the Installed list after enabling, disabling, or uninstalling a plugin
540- `/doctor` now shows an exec-form example when a command hook is missing the `command` field
541- Skill-listing truncation is no longer shown as a startup notification — run `/doctor` for the full breakdown
542- Improved recovery from rare pre-response stream stalls — now retries streaming once instead of falling back to a slower non-streaming request
543- 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)
544- 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.
545
546## 2.1.143
547
548- 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
549- Added projected context cost (per-turn and per-invocation token estimates) to the `/plugin` marketplace browse pane
550- Added `worktree.bgIsolation: "none"` setting to let background sessions edit the working copy directly without `EnterWorktree`, for repos where worktrees are impractical
551- PowerShell tool now passes `-ExecutionPolicy Bypass`. Opt out with `CLAUDE_CODE_POWERSHELL_RESPECT_EXECUTION_POLICY=1`
552- Background sessions now preserve the model and effort level you set after waking from idle
553- Shift+Tab in attached agent sessions now includes auto mode in the cycle
554- Fixed a corrupt `.credentials.json` with a non-array `scopes` value hanging the CLI on startup or silently aborting OAuth token refresh
555- Fixed right-click paste in `claude agents` on Windows Terminal and WSL
556- 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`)
557- Fixed Esc/Ctrl+C not cancelling a pending `/loop` wakeup while Claude is idle between iterations
558- Fixed `/goal` evaluator firing while background shells or delegated subagents are still running
559- Fixed `NO_COLOR`/`FORCE_COLOR` in settings.json `env` stripping Claude Code's own UI colors — they now apply to subprocesses only
560- Fixed agent view spawning repeated PowerShell processes on Windows when listing sessions
561- Fixed `/bg` without a prompt sending "continue" to the forked session — the fork now waits for input
562- Fixed `--agent <name>` not finding plugin-contributed agents without the `plugin:` prefix
563- Fixed deleting a session from agent view not removing its transcript file
564- Fixed stale-fragment rendering when scrolling in attached background sessions on Windows Terminal
565- Fixed background agents false-positive worker-stall detection storm after host sleep or macOS App Nap
566- Fixed 5xx error messages pointing at status.claude.com instead of naming the configured gateway or cloud provider
567- 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`.
568- `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
569- `claude agents` accepts `--permission-mode`, `--model`, `--effort`, and `--dangerously-skip-permissions` to set defaults for sessions dispatched from the view
570- `claude --bg --dangerously-skip-permissions` now persists across retire→wake
571- 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`
572- Worktree cleanup no longer falls back to `rm -rf` when `git worktree remove` fails, preventing loss of gitignored or in-progress files
573- 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.
574- `/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.
575- Background sessions launched from `claude agents` now honor `permissions.defaultMode` from settings.json (was previously overridden to auto mode)
576- Fixed: on Windows, pressing ← in `claude agents` while a response was streaming could leave the agents list unresponsive to all input
577- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve `--fallback-model`, so backgrounded workers degrade to the fallback model on overload instead of hard-failing.
578- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve `--allow-dangerously-skip-permissions`, so the forked worker keeps bypass-permissions available in its Shift+Tab cycle.
579- Fixed: background daemon spawn now falls back to the running binary when the `~/.local/bin/claude` launcher is missing or non-executable
580- Fixed `claude agents --allow-dangerously-skip-permissions` defaulting dispatched sessions to bypass mode instead of making it available in the permission cycle
581
582## 2.1.142
583
584- 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
585- 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
586- Plugins with a root-level `SKILL.md` and no `skills/` subdirectory are now surfaced as a skill
587- The `/plugin` details pane and `claude plugin details` now show LSP servers a plugin provides
588- `/web-setup` warns before replacing an existing GitHub App connection
589- 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
590- Fixed background sessions not recognizing pre-existing git worktrees, blocking Edit while EnterWorktree refused to create a duplicate
591- 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
592- Fixed daemon not exiting cleanly after the binary is upgraded (e.g. `brew upgrade`), causing dispatched agents to crash-loop on the deleted path
593- Fixed background agents crash-looping when the Claude-in-Chrome extension is connected without a shared tab
594- Fixed clicking links in an attached `claude agents` session — the background worker's headless browser shim no longer applies while attached
595- Fixed `claude agents` "v to open in editor" using the daemon's default editor instead of your shell's `$EDITOR`/`$VISUAL`
596- Fixed `claude agents` deadlocking on Windows with network-drive working directories; Ctrl+C now works during startup
597- Fixed background-color bleed when attaching to a `claude agents` session from Apple Terminal or other 256-color-only terminals
598- Fixed `claude --bg --dangerously-skip-permissions` not persisting across retire/wake
599- Fixed session titles being derived from the URL when the first message is a link
600- Fixed redundant `set_model` requests from remote clients injecting duplicate `/model` breadcrumbs into the transcript
601- Fixed plugins using `skills: ["./"]` showing a false "path escapes plugin directory" error
602- Fixed plugin cache cleanup deleting the active plugin version directory when no installation metadata is present
603- Fixed `/plugin` browse pane showing "0 installs" for newly published plugins
604- Fixed plugin advisories not naming every `plugin.json` key that shadows a default folder
605- Improved reactive compaction: the first summarize attempt now seeds from the original request's overflow size, avoiding a wasted near-full-context retry
606- 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
607- Removed stale `/model claude-sonnet-4-20250514` suggestion from Usage Policy refusal messages
608
609## 2.1.141
610
611- Added `terminalSequence` field to hook JSON output so hooks can emit desktop notifications, window titles, and bells without a controlling terminal
612- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS` to clone GitHub plugin sources over HTTPS instead of SSH, for environments without a GitHub SSH key
613- 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
614- Added `claude agents --cwd <path>` to scope the session list to a directory
615- `/feedback` can now include recent sessions (last 24 hours or 7 days) for issues spanning more than the current session
616- Rewind menu: added "Summarize up to here" to compress earlier context while keeping recent turns intact
617- Auto mode permission dialog now explains when a `permissions.ask` rule caused the prompt
618- Restored the "view diff in your IDE" option on file-edit permission prompts when an IDE is connected
619- Background agents launched via `/bg` or `←←` now preserve the current permission mode instead of reverting to default
620- `claude agents`: agents that finish work but leave a background shell running now move to Completed instead of staying under Working
621- Improved spinner feedback during long thinking periods — the spinner now warms to amber after 10 seconds to signal Claude is still working
622- Improved plugin menu navigation: `→`/Tab switch tabs, `↑` moves to the tab strip, and tab headers and search box are clickable in fullscreen mode
623- 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
624- 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
625- Fixed `claude agents` showing the agent-type list instead of the dashboard when launched through a wrapper that adds flags
626- Fixed `claude agents` opening a crashed session firing redundant dispatches when the working directory was deleted
627- 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
628- Fixed `/model` in one session silently changing the autocompact threshold in other concurrent sessions
629- Fixed switching permission mode while a tool-permission prompt is open not auto-dismissing the prompt when the new setting permits the tool
630- Fixed pressing Enter while a permission/dialog prompt is open also submitting text in the input box
631- Fixed hooks receiving a non-existent `transcript_path` after `EnterWorktree` switches the working directory
632- Fixed markdown tables with cell wrapping falling back to the vertical key-value layout instead of rendering as a bordered grid (regression in 2.1.136)
633- Fixed cancelled prompts being removed from Up-arrow history when auto-restored into the input box, avoiding duplicate entries
634- Fixed prompts cancelled with Ctrl+C/Esc before any response being dropped from Up-arrow history
635- Fixed Ctrl+C not interrupting a running turn while in vim INSERT/VISUAL mode
636- Fixed alternative `chat:submit` keybindings (e.g. `meta+enter`, `ctrl+enter`) not working when `enter` is rebound to `chat:newline`
637- Fixed prompt suggestions being silently disabled when an output style was configured
638- Fixed `spinnerVerbs` setting not being honored in turn-completion messages
639- Fixed AskUserQuestion popup hiding the last line of preceding chat content
640- Fixed Web Search status showing "Did 0 searches" when searches returned errors
641- Fixed multi-line statusline output dropping or corrupting rows when any line exceeds terminal width
642- Fixed light-ansi theme using invisible white for diff context lines on light backgrounds — now uses black
643- Fixed error overlay dumping minified bundle source that hid the original error message
644- Fixed pressing Enter after typing a feedback survey rating digit submitting it as a chat message instead of the rating
645- Fixed pressing `x` on a selected subagent in the agent panel typing into the prompt instead of stopping the agent
646- Fixed session title being derived from plugin monitor notifications before the user's first prompt
647- Fixed "Allowed by PermissionRequest hook" repeating once per tool call under a collapsed read/search group
648- Fixed `/tui` silently dropping running background shells and subagents — now refuses and asks to wait for them to finish
649- Fixed welcome banner showing "API Usage Billing" on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, and other third-party providers — now shows the provider name
650- Fixed `/mcp` server list not keeping the focused server visible in short terminals in fullscreen mode
651- Fixed redaction in `/feedback` bundles producing invalid JSON for quoted values like session IDs
652- Fixed desktop and third-party provider sessions incorrectly inheriting `apiKeyHelper`/`ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` from host managed-settings
653- Fixed early analytics events being silently dropped when fired before logger initialization
654- Fixed `claude plugin install` failing for plugins whose marketplace `ref` no longer exists upstream when a `sha` is also pinned
655- Fixed plugin details pane showing 0 MCP servers for plugins that declare them via `.mcp.json`
656- 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
657- Fixed MCP server configs using POSIX shell parameter expansions (e.g. `${var%pattern}`) being incorrectly flagged as missing environment variables
658- Fixed MCP HTTP/SSE servers returning 403 on connect showing as "failed" instead of "needs auth"
659- Fixed remote MCP servers disconnecting unnecessarily when the optional server-events stream failed to reconnect — tool calls continue over POST
660- Fixed Remote Control MCP connectors all failing with 401 when the worker session token rotated mid-session
661- Fixed Remote Control automatically re-enrolling a trusted device when the server rejects a stale token, instead of looping through `/login`
662- Fixed a race where early OTel spans could be silently dropped in SDK/headless mode with beta tracing enabled
663- Fixed custom `voice:pushToTalk` keybindings and `"space": null` unbinds being silently ignored
664- Fixed Windows Alt+V image paste reporting "no image found" when the clipboard contains a screenshot
665- Fixed SDK "Claude Code native binary not found" on Linux when both glibc and musl platform packages are installed
666- Bedrock: `awsCredentialExport` now always runs when configured instead of being skipped when ambient AWS credentials resolve, fixing auth for cross-account access
667- [VSCode] Fixed in-chat mic showing no feedback when the microphone produced only silence — now shows "No audio detected"
668- [VSCode] Voice mode: the WSL error now suggests installing `sox libsox-fmt-pulse` for WSLg users
669- `claude agents`: launching a session no longer fails when the pre-warmed background worker is unhealthy — now falls back to a fresh launch
670- `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
671- Empty idle background sessions left over from `←` are now automatically retired by the daemon after 5 minutes
672
673## 2.1.140
674
675- Improved Agent tool `subagent_type` matching to accept case- and separator-insensitive values (e.g. `"Code Reviewer"` resolves to `code-reviewer`)
676- Updated agent color palette
677- Fixed `/goal` silently hanging when `disableAllHooks` or `allowManagedHooksOnly` is set — now shows a clear message instead of an indicator that never resolves
678- Fixed a regression in settings hot-reload where symlinked settings files caused misattributed change events and spurious `ConfigChange` hooks
679- Fixed `claude --bg` failing with "connection dropped mid-request" when the background service was about to idle-exit
680- Fixed background service startup failing on machines with enterprise endpoint security by allowing more time
681- Fixed remote managed settings not retrying on 401 — now retries once with a force-refreshed token
682- Fixed managed `extraKnownMarketplaces` auto-update policy not being persisted to `known_marketplaces.json`
683- Fixed `/loop` scheduling redundant wakeups to poll for background tasks that already notify on completion
684- Fixed a recurring event-loop stall on Windows when a missing executable (e.g. `gh`) triggered synchronous `where.exe` re-spawns on every check
685- Fixed `Read` tool calls failing validation when `offset` is passed as a whitespace-padded or `+`-prefixed string
686- Fixed native terminal cursor not staying at the input caret when the terminal loses focus
687- 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`.
688
689## 2.1.139
690
691- 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
692- 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
693- Added `/scroll-speed` command to tune mouse wheel scroll speed with a live preview
694- Added `claude plugin details <name>` to show a plugin's component inventory and projected per-session token cost
695- Added transcript view navigation: `?` for keyboard shortcuts, `{`/`}` to jump between user prompts, `v` to toggle shortcut panel
696- Added hook `args: string[]` field (exec form) that spawns the command directly without a shell, so path placeholders never need quoting
697- Added hook `continueOnBlock` config option for `PostToolUse` — set to `true` to feed the hook's rejection reason back to Claude and continue the turn
698- MCP stdio servers now receive `CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR` in their environment, matching hooks. Plugin configs can reference `${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR}` in commands
699- Compaction prompt now asks the model to preserve sensitive user instructions
700- `/mcp` Reconnect now picks up `.mcp.json` edits without a restart, and shows the HTTP status and URL when reconnecting fails
701- `/context all` per-skill token estimates now account for the model's tokenizer and show rounded values
702- `claude plugin install <name>@<marketplace>` now auto-refreshes the marketplace and retries before reporting a plugin as not found

704- `/context` now shows the providing plugin's name for plugin-sourced skills
705- Remote MCP server reconnect retry on transient failures is now enabled for all users
706- 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
707- 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
708- Fixed a deadlock where expired credentials and the `forceRemoteSettingsRefresh` policy setting blocked `claude auth login`/`logout`/`status` with no way to recover
709- Fixed `autoAllowBashIfSandboxed` not auto-approving commands with shell expansions like `$VAR` and `$(cmd)`
710- Fixed a bug where a hook writing to the terminal could corrupt an on-screen interactive prompt; hooks now run without terminal access
711- Fixed unbounded memory growth when an HTTP/SSE MCP server streams non-protocol data — response bodies now capped at 16 MB per SSE frame
712- Fixed `Skill(name *)` permission rules — the wildcard form now works as a prefix match, matching `Bash(ls *)` behavior
713- Fixed settings hot-reload not detecting edits to symlinked `~/.claude/settings.json`
714- Fixed plugin details failing to load when the marketplace key differs from the manifest name
715- Fixed `/model` picker "Default" row not reflecting `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL`/`ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL` overrides
716- Fixed spurious "stream idle timeout" 5 minutes after a response completed, caused by the watchdog timer not being cleared on stream cancellation
717- Fixed silent `exit 1` when 10+ MCP servers are configured and the cache directory is unwritable — the error message now includes the underlying cause
718- Fixed a typing cursor blinking on tab names, list pointers, and select rows in dialogs
719- Fixed transcript view letter shortcuts not working after mouse click
720- Fixed Bash-mode up-arrow history repeating the first entry and clobbering the in-progress draft
721- Fixed pasting or dropping multiple images only inserting the last one
722- Fixed hyperlinks using unreadable dark navy on dark themes — they now adapt to the active theme
723- Fixed model picker showing a redundant "Current model" row for third-party users whose model is set to the `opus` alias
724- Fixed legacy Opus picker entry on PAYG 3P providers resolving to the same model as the default entry
725- 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
726- Fixed scroll behavior in Windows Terminal and VS Code when attached to background sessions
727- Fixed MCP resources from disconnected servers lingering in `@server:` autocomplete
728- Fixed two-file diff snippets over-reporting the number of truncated lines by one

738- Fixed `claude_code.active_time.total` OpenTelemetry metric not being emitted in `--print` mode
739- Fixed `claude plugin update` not preserving cross-plugin symlinks inside a marketplace
740- [VSCode] Press Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+T to reopen the most recently closed session tab, configurable via `claudeCode.enableReopenClosedSessionShortcut`

746## 2.1.137
747
748- [VSCode] Fixed extension failing to activate on Windows
749
750## 2.1.136
751
752- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FEEDBACK_SURVEY_FOR_OTEL` to re-enable the session quality survey for enterprises capturing responses through OpenTelemetry
753- Added `settings.autoMode.hard_deny` for auto mode classifier rules that block unconditionally regardless of user intent or allow exceptions
754- Fixed MCP servers configured in `.mcp.json`, plugins, and claude.ai connectors silently disappearing after `/clear` in the VS Code extension, JetBrains plugin, and Agent SDK
755- Fixed a rare login loop where a concurrent credential write could overwrite a freshly-rotated OAuth token and force re-login

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

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

773- Fixed a renderer crash when a tool's collapsibility classification changes mid-session
774- Fixed a `skills` entry in `plugin.json` hiding the plugin's default `skills/` directory, and listing a file path now shows an error instead of failing silently

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

790- Fixed wide markdown tables leaving a stale bordered render in terminal scrollback while streaming
791- Fixed pasted text being silently dropped when a long prompt with a pasted-text placeholder was auto-truncated
792- Fixed `/release-notes` getting stuck on an old version after a failed changelog refresh
793- Fixed `/mcp` server list not scrolling when there are more servers than fit in the terminal
794- Fixed mid-input slash command autocomplete not working after an initial slash command
795- Fixed scrolling to bottom re-engaging auto-follow with `autoScrollEnabled: false`
796- Fixed prompt suggestions being auto-submitted by Enter on an empty input instead of requiring Tab or arrow to accept
797- Fixed keyboard shortcut hints not reflecting rebound keys from `keybindings.json`
798- Fixed `/settings` language change being reverted on Escape after confirming
799- Fixed `/terminal-setup` only appearing in autocomplete on exact name match instead of partial prefixes
800- Fixed "Chat about this" on an `AskUserQuestion` dialog erasing the question text
801- Fixed MCP tool results being invisible when the server returns content blocks
802- Improved error message when `--worktree` collides with an existing or stale worktree
803- Changed plugin marketplace removal key to `d` (matching delete elsewhere) instead of `r` which collided with retry
804
805## 2.1.133
806
807- 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
808- Added `sandbox.bwrapPath` and `sandbox.socatPath` managed settings (Linux/WSL) to specify custom bubblewrap and socat binary locations
809- Added `parentSettingsBehavior` admin-tier key (`'first-wins' | 'merge'`) to let admins opt SDK `managedSettings` (parent tier) into the policy merge
810- 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`

816- Fixed pressing Esc during conversation compaction showing a spurious "Error compacting conversation" notification
817- 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
818- Fixed Read/Write/Edit being denied on mapped network drives passed via `--add-dir` / SDK `additionalDirectories`
819- 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

824
825## 2.1.132
826
827- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` environment variable to the Bash tool subprocess environment, matching the `session_id` passed to hooks
828- 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
829- Added a "Pasting…" footer hint while a Ctrl+V image paste is being read from the clipboard
830- 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
831- Fixed an uncaught exception when the terminal is closed or SSH disconnects mid-session under the native build
832- Fixed `--resume` failing with `no low surrogate in string` when a tool error truncation split an emoji; pre-corrupted sessions are sanitized on load
833- 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
834- Fixed fullscreen mode showing a blank screen after laptop sleep/wake or Ctrl+Z/`fg` until the next keystroke or stream output
835- Fixed cursor landing mid-grapheme on Ctrl+E/A/K/U/arrow keys when an Indic conjunct or ZWJ emoji wraps across lines
836- Fixed vim operators corrupting text containing decomposed (NFD) accented characters
837- Fixed pasting text starting with `/` silently swallowing the input or triggering an unknown-command reply
838- Fixed pasting dumping stray escape sequences into the prompt when focus events or mouse-tracking reports interleave with the bracketed paste
839- Fixed mouse wheel scrolling being too fast in Cursor and VS Code 1.92–1.104 due to an upstream xterm.js bug
840- Fixed scroll-wheel handling in JetBrains IDE 2025.2 terminals (spurious arrow keys, wrong-direction events, runaway acceleration)
841- Fixed `/usage` Ctrl+S hanging when copying the stats screenshot to the clipboard on Linux/X11
842- Fixed `/terminal-setup` showing a contradictory error in Windows Terminal — Shift+Enter is natively supported there
843- Fixed `/effort` picker not reflecting the `CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL` env var override
844- Fixed `/status` showing the wrong default model for some users
845- Fixed slash command autocomplete popup being capped at ~3–5 visible commands instead of scaling with terminal height
846- Fixed statusline `context_window` token counts reflecting cumulative session totals instead of current context usage

848- Fixed dead keyboard input on Windows after re-opening a background session from `claude agents`
849- Fixed unbounded memory growth (10GB+ RSS) when a stdio MCP server writes non-protocol data to stdout
850- 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`
851- Fixed unauthorized claude.ai MCP connectors showing as "failed" instead of "needs auth", and headless `-p` mode retrying non-transient 4xx connection failures
852- Improved visual consistency in slash command dialogs and `/login`, `/upgrade`, `/extra-usage` dialog spacing
853- Updated the `/tui fullscreen` startup banner to describe additional renderer benefits (lower memory usage, mouse support, auto-copy on select)

855
856## 2.1.131

861## 2.1.129
862
863- Added `--plugin-url <url>` flag to fetch a plugin `.zip` archive from a URL for the current session
864- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_FORCE_SYNC_OUTPUT=1` env var to force-enable synchronized output on terminals that auto-detection misses (e.g. Emacs `eat`)
865- 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
866- Plugin manifests: `themes` and `monitors` should now be declared under `"experimental": { ... }`. Top-level declarations still work but `claude plugin validate` will warn
867- 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)
868- 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
869- Third-party deployments (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, or `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` gateway) no longer see spinner tips pointing at first-party Anthropic surfaces
870- `skillOverrides` setting now works: `off` hides from model and `/`, `user-invocable-only` hides from model only, `name-only` collapses description
871- The `claude_code.pull_request.count` OTel metric now counts PRs/MRs created via MCP tools, not just shell commands
872- Policy refusal error messages now include the API Request ID for easier support debugging
873- Fixed API errors with unrecognized 400 status codes showing raw JSON instead of the underlying error message
874- Fixed `/clear` not resetting the terminal tab title after a conversation
875- Fixed session title chip from `/rename` disappearing while a permission or other dialog is active
876- Fixed agent panel below the prompt being hidden when subagents are running (regression in 2.1.122)
877- Fixed external-editor handoff (Ctrl+G) blanking the conversation history above the prompt
878- Fixed `/context` dumping its rendered ASCII visualization grid into the conversation, wasting ~1.6k tokens per call
879- Fixed `/agents` Library list arrow-key navigation: the highlighted agent now stays visible when the list exceeds the viewport
880- Fixed `/branch` success message not including the new branch's session id for `/resume`
881- Fixed bold headers with keycap/ZWJ/skin-tone emoji losing trailing characters in fullscreen mode
882- Fixed server-managed settings policy not applying for enterprise/team users whose stored OAuth credentials lacked the `user:inference` scope
883- Fixed OAuth refresh race after wake-from-sleep that could log out all running sessions
884- Fixed 1-hour prompt cache TTL being silently downgraded to 5 minutes
885- Fixed cache-miss warning appearing spuriously after `/clear` or compaction when changing `/effort` or `/model`

889- [VSCode] Fixed `/clear` not clearing the conversation context and displayed transcript
890

894- `/mcp` now shows the tool count for connected servers and flags servers that connected with 0 tools
895- `--plugin-dir` now accepts `.zip` plugin archives in addition to directories
896- `--channels` now works with console (API key) authentication — console orgs with managed settings must set `channelsEnabled: true` to enable
897- Updated `/model` picker: collapsed duplicate Opus 4.7 entries, and current Opus now shows as "Opus" instead of "Opus 4.7"
898- 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
899- MCP: `workspace` is now a reserved server name — existing servers with that name will be skipped with a warning
900- Reconnecting MCP servers no longer flood the conversation with full tool-name lists on every reconnect — re-announced tools are summarized by server prefix
901- SDK hosts now receive a persistent `localSettings` suggestion for Bash permission prompts, so "Always allow" writes to `.claude/settings.local.json`
902- `EnterWorktree` now creates the new branch from local HEAD as documented, instead of `origin/<default-branch>` — unpushed commits are no longer dropped
903- Auto mode: when the classifier can't evaluate an action, the error now includes a hint (retry, `/compact`, or run with `--debug`)
904- Fixed focus mode briefly dimming the previous response when submitting a new prompt
905- Fixed stray "4;0;" desktop notification on every `/exit` in Kitty and other terminals that interpret OSC 9 as a notification

907- Fixed drag-and-drop image upload hanging on "Pasting text…" when the image read fails
908- Fixed crash loop when piping very large input (>10 MB) to `claude -p` via stdin
909- Fixed long URLs not being individually clickable on every wrapped row in fullscreen mode
910- Fixed `/plugin` Components panel showing "Marketplace 'inline' not found" for plugins loaded via `--plugin-dir`
911- Fixed MCP tool results dropping images when the server returns both structured content and content blocks
912- Fixed fenced code blocks inside list items carrying leading whitespace into the clipboard on copy-paste
913- Fixed tab navigation in `/config` stranding focus — the tab header now stays focused so arrows and Esc keep working
914- Fixed markdown link labels being lost on terminals without OSC 8 hyperlink support — links now render as `label (url)` instead of just the URL
915- 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
916- Fixed parallel shell tool calls: a failing read-only command (grep, git diff, ls) no longer cancels sibling calls
917- Fixed banner showing "with X effort" on models that don't support effort
918- Fixed `/fast` on 3P providers fuzzy-matching to an unrelated skill instead of showing "not available"
919- Fixed Bedrock default model resolving to `global.*` instead of the region-appropriate prefix
920- Fixed vim mode: `Space` in NORMAL mode now moves the cursor right, matching standard vi/vim behavior
921- Fixed terminal progress indicator (OSC 9;4) flickering off between tool calls — stays visible across the full turn
922- Fixed `/rename` without args failing on resumed sessions whose last entry is a compact boundary
923- Fixed stale "remote-control is active" status lines from prior sessions appearing after `--resume`/`--continue`
924- Fixed stale `installed_plugins.json` entries pointing at deleted cache directories polluting PATH
925- Fixed MCP stdio servers receiving corrupted arguments when `CLAUDE_CODE_SHELL_PREFIX` is set and an argument contains spaces or shell metacharacters
926- Fixed sub-agent progress summaries missing the prompt cache (~3× `cache_creation` reduction)
927- Fixed `/plugin update` never detecting new versions of npm-sourced plugins
928- Fixed sub-agent summaries firing repeatedly while a sub-agent's transcript is static, capping worst-case token cost on idle sub-agents
929- Headless `--output-format stream-json`: `init.plugin_errors` now includes `--plugin-dir` load failures in addition to dependency demotions
930
931## 2.1.126
932
933- The `/model` picker now lists models from your gateway's `/v1/models` endpoint when `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` points at an Anthropic-compatible gateway
934- - Added `claude project purge [path]` to delete all Claude Code state for a project (transcripts, tasks, file history, config entry) — supports `--dry-run`, `-y/--yes`, `-i/--interactive`, and `--all`
935- `--dangerously-skip-permissions` now bypasses prompts for writes to `.claude/`, `.git/`, `.vscode/`, shell config files, and other previously-protected paths (catastrophic removal commands still prompt as a safety net)
936- `claude auth login` now accepts the OAuth code pasted into the terminal when the browser callback can't reach localhost (WSL2, SSH, containers)
937- `claude_code.skill_activated` OpenTelemetry event now fires for user-typed slash commands and carries a new `invocation_trigger` attribute (`"user-slash"`, `"claude-proactive"`, or `"nested-skill"`)
938- Auto mode: the spinner now turns red when a permission check stalls, instead of looking like the tool is running
939- Host-managed deployments (`CLAUDE_CODE_PROVIDER_MANAGED_BY_HOST`) no longer auto-disable analytics on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry
940- Windows: PowerShell 7 installed via the Microsoft Store, MSI without PATH, or `.NET global tool` is now detected
941- Windows: when the PowerShell tool is enabled, Claude now treats PowerShell as the primary shell instead of defaulting to Bash
942- Read tool: removed the per-file malware-assessment reminder that could cause spurious refusals and "this is not malware" commentary on legacy models
943- **Security:** Fixed `allowManagedDomainsOnly` / `allowManagedReadPathsOnly` being ignored when a higher-priority managed-settings source lacked a `sandbox` block
944- 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
945- Fixed showing the login screen for "OAuth not allowed for organization" errors — now shows guidance to contact your admin
946- Fixed OAuth login failing with timeout on slow or proxied connections, in IPv6-only devcontainers, and when the browser callback can't reach localhost
947- Fixed a rare race where a concurrent credential write could clear a valid OAuth refresh token

954- Fixed Japanese/Korean/Chinese text rendering as garbled characters on Windows in no-flicker mode
955- Fixed `Ctrl+L` clearing the prompt input — it now only forces a screen redraw, matching readline behavior

957- Fixed plan-mode tools being unavailable in interactive sessions launched with `--channels`
958- Fixed `/plugin` Uninstall reporting "Enabled" instead of "Uninstalled"
959- Bounded total size of file-modified reminders when a linter touches many files at once
960- Fixed `/remote-control` retries appearing stuck on "connecting…" — each retry now shows its result
961- Fixed Remote Control failure notification not showing the error reason for initial connection failures
962- 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
963- PowerShell tool: bare `--` (e.g. `git diff -- file`) is no longer mis-flagged as the `--%` stop-parsing token
964- Fixed Agent SDK hang when the model emits a malformed tool name in a parallel tool call batch
965
966## 2.1.123
967

969
970## 2.1.122

977- OpenTelemetry: added `claude_code.at_mention` log event for `@`-mention resolution
978- Fixed `/branch` producing forks that fail with "tool_use ids were found without tool_result blocks" when the source session contained entries from rewound timelines
979- Fixed `/model` not showing the Effort option for Bedrock application inference profile ARNs, and those ARNs not receiving `output_config.effort`
980- Fixed Vertex AI / Bedrock returning `invalid_request_error: output_config: Extra inputs are not permitted` on session-title generation and other structured-output queries
981- Fixed Vertex AI `count_tokens` endpoint returning 400 errors for users behind proxy gateways

983- Fixed ToolSearch missing MCP tools that connected after session start in nonblocking mode
984- Fixed `!exit` / `!quit` in bash mode terminating the CLI instead of running as a shell command
985- Fixed images sent to newer models being resized to 2576px per side instead of the correct 2000px maximum
986- Fixed remote control session idle status redrawing twice per second, which could flood `tmux -CC` control pipes and pause the terminal
987- Fixed assistant messages appearing blank in some sessions due to a stale view preference
988- Fixed a malformed hooks entry in `settings.json` no longer invalidating the entire file
989- Voice mode: keybindings bound to Caps Lock now show an error since terminals don't deliver Caps Lock as a key event
990
991## 2.1.121
992
993- Added `alwaysLoad` option to MCP server config — when `true`, all tools from that server skip tool-search deferral and are always available

1001- `--dangerously-skip-permissions` no longer prompts for writes to `.claude/skills/`, `.claude/agents/`, and `.claude/commands/`
1002- `/terminal-setup` now enables iTerm2's "Applications in terminal may access clipboard" setting so `/copy` works, including from tmux

1113
1114- Added vim visual mode (`v`) and visual-line mode (`V`) with selection, operators, and visual feedback
1115- Merged `/cost` and `/stats` into `/usage` — both remain as typing shortcuts that open the relevant tab
1116- Create and switch between named custom themes from `/theme`, or hand-edit JSON files in `~/.claude/themes/`; plugins can also ship themes via a `themes/` directory
1117- Hooks can now invoke MCP tools directly via `type: "mcp_tool"`
1118- Added `DISABLE_UPDATES` env var to completely block all update paths including manual `claude update` — stricter than `DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER`
1119- WSL on Windows can now inherit Windows-side managed settings via the `wslInheritsWindowsSettings` policy key
1120- Auto mode: include `"$defaults"` in `autoMode.allow`, `autoMode.soft_deny`, or `autoMode.environment` to add custom rules alongside the built-in list instead of replacing it

1127- Fixed `/mcp` menu hiding OAuth Authenticate/Re-authenticate actions for servers configured with `headersHelper`, and HTTP/SSE MCP servers with custom headers being stuck in "needs authentication" after a transient 401
1128- Fixed MCP servers whose OAuth token response omits `expires_in` requiring re-authentication every hour

1134- Fixed credential save crash on Linux/Windows corrupting `~/.claude/.credentials.json`
1135- Fixed `/login` having no effect in a session launched with `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` — the env token is now cleared so disk credentials take effect

1152- Agent frontmatter `mcpServers` are now loaded for main-thread agent sessions via `--agent`
1153- Improved `/model`: selections now persist across restarts even when the project pins a different model, and the startup header shows when the active model comes from a project or managed-settings pin
1154- The `/resume` command now offers to summarize stale, large sessions before re-reading them, matching the existing `--resume` behavior
1155- Faster startup when both local and claude.ai MCP servers are configured (concurrent connect now default)
1156- `plugin install` on an already-installed plugin now installs any missing dependencies instead of stopping at "already installed"
1157- Plugin dependency errors now say "not installed" with an install hint, and `claude plugin marketplace add` now auto-resolves missing dependencies from configured marketplaces
1158- Managed-settings `blockedMarketplaces` and `strictKnownMarketplaces` are now enforced on plugin install, update, refresh, and autoupdate
1159- Advisor Tool (experimental): dialog now carries an "experimental" label, learn-more link, and startup notification when enabled; sessions no longer get stuck with "Advisor tool result content could not be processed" errors on every prompt and `/compact`
1160- The `cleanupPeriodDays` retention sweep now also covers `~/.claude/tasks/`, `~/.claude/shell-snapshots/`, and `~/.claude/backups/`
1161- OpenTelemetry: `user_prompt` events now include `command_name` and `command_source` for slash commands; `cost.usage`, `token.usage`, `api_request`, and `api_error` now include an `effort` attribute when the model supports effort levels. Custom/MCP command names are redacted unless `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1` is set
1162- 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)
1163- Windows: cached `where.exe` executable lookups per process for faster subprocess launches
1164- Default effort for Pro/Max subscribers on Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 is now `high` (was `medium`)
1165- Fixed Plain-CLI OAuth sessions dying with "Please run /login" when the access token expires mid-session — the token is now refreshed reactively on 401

1176- Fixed idle re-render loop when background tasks are present, reducing memory growth on Linux
1177- [VSCode] Fixed "Manage Plugins" panel breaking when multiple large marketplaces are configured
1178- 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
1179
1180## 2.1.116
1181
1182- `/resume` on large sessions is significantly faster (up to 67% on 40MB+ sessions) and handles sessions with many dead-fork entries more efficiently
1183- Faster MCP startup when multiple stdio servers are configured; `resources/templates/list` is now deferred to first `@`-mention
1184- Smoother fullscreen scrolling in VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf terminals — `/terminal-setup` now configures the editor's scroll sensitivity
1185- Thinking spinner now shows progress inline ("still thinking", "thinking more", "almost done thinking"), replacing the separate hint row
1186- `/config` search now matches option values (e.g. searching "vim" finds the Editor mode setting)

1188- `/reload-plugins` and background plugin auto-update now auto-install missing plugin dependencies from marketplaces you've already added
1189- Bash tool now surfaces a hint when `gh` commands hit GitHub's API rate limit, so agents can back off instead of retrying
1190- The Usage tab in Settings now shows your 5-hour and weekly usage immediately and no longer fails when the usage endpoint is rate-limited
1191- Agent frontmatter `hooks:` now fire when running as a main-thread agent via `--agent`
1192- Slash command menu now shows "No commands match" when your filter has zero results, instead of disappearing
1193- Security: sandbox auto-allow no longer bypasses the dangerous-path safety check for `rm`/`rmdir` targeting `/`, `$HOME`, or other critical system directories
1194- 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`

1198- Fixed Ctrl+Z hanging the terminal when Claude Code is launched via a wrapper process (e.g. `npx`, `bun run`)
1199- Fixed scrollback duplication in inline mode where resizing the terminal or large output bursts would repeat earlier conversation history
1200- Fixed modal search dialogs overflowing the screen at short terminal heights, hiding the search box and keyboard hints
1201- Fixed scattered blank cells and disappearing composer chrome in the VS Code integrated terminal during scrolling
1202- Fixed an intermittent API 400 error related to cache control TTL ordering that could occur when a parallel request completed during request setup
1203- Fixed `/branch` rejecting conversations with transcripts larger than 50MB
1204- Fixed `/resume` silently showing an empty conversation on large session files instead of reporting the load error
1205- Fixed `/plugin` Installed tab showing the same item twice when it appears under Needs attention or Favorites
1206- Fixed `/update` and `/tui` not working after entering a worktree mid-session
1207
1208## 2.1.114

1210- Fixed a crash in the permission dialog when an agent teams teammate requested tool permission
1211
1212## 2.1.113
1213
1214- Changed the CLI to spawn a native Claude Code binary (via a per-platform optional dependency) instead of bundled JavaScript
1215- Added `sandbox.network.deniedDomains` setting to block specific domains even when a broader `allowedDomains` wildcard would otherwise permit them
1216- Fullscreen mode: Shift+↑/↓ now scrolls the viewport when extending a selection past the visible edge
1217- `Ctrl+A` and `Ctrl+E` now move to the start/end of the current logical line in multiline input, matching readline behavior
1218- Windows: `Ctrl+Backspace` now deletes the previous word
1219- Long URLs in responses and bash output stay clickable when they wrap across lines (in terminals with OSC 8 hyperlinks)
1220- Improved `/loop`: pressing Esc now cancels pending wakeups, and wakeups display as "Claude resuming /loop wakeup" for clarity
1221- `/extra-usage` now works from Remote Control (mobile/web) clients
1222- Remote Control clients can now query `@`-file autocomplete suggestions
1223- Improved `/ultrareview`: faster launch with parallelized checks, diffstat in the launch dialog, and animated launching state
1224- Subagents that stall mid-stream now fail with a clear error after 10 minutes instead of hanging silently
1225- Bash tool: multi-line commands whose first line is a comment now show the full command in the transcript, closing a UI-spoofing vector
1226- Running `cd <current-directory> && git …` no longer triggers a permission prompt when the `cd` is a no-op
1227- Security: on macOS, `/private/{etc,var,tmp,home}` paths are now treated as dangerous removal targets under `Bash(rm:*)` allow rules
1228- Security: Bash deny rules now match commands wrapped in `env`/`sudo`/`watch`/`ionice`/`setsid` and similar exec wrappers
1229- Security: `Bash(find:*)` allow rules no longer auto-approve `find -exec`/`-delete`
1230- Fixed MCP concurrent-call timeout handling where a message for one tool call could silently disarm another call's watchdog
1231- Fixed Cmd-backspace / `Ctrl+U` to once again delete from the cursor to the start of the line
1232- Fixed markdown tables breaking when a cell contains an inline code span with a pipe character
1233- Fixed session recap auto-firing while composing unsent text in the prompt
1234- Fixed `/copy` "Full response" not aligning markdown table columns for pasting into GitHub, Notion, or Slack

1241- Fixed slash/@ completion menu not sitting flush against the prompt border in fullscreen mode
1242- 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
1243- Fixed prompt cursor disappearing when `NO_COLOR` is set
1244- Fixed `ToolSearch` ranking so pasted MCP tool names surface the actual tool instead of description-matching siblings
1245- Fixed compacting a resumed long-context session failing with "Extra usage is required for long context requests"
1246- Fixed `plugin install` succeeding when a dependency version conflicts with an already-installed plugin — now reports `range-conflict`
1247- Fixed "Refine with Ultraplan" not showing the remote session URL in the transcript

1260- Auto mode is now available for Max subscribers when using Opus 4.7
1261- 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`
1262- `/effort` now opens an interactive slider when called without arguments, with arrow-key navigation between levels and Enter to confirm
1263- Added "Auto (match terminal)" theme option that matches your terminal's dark/light mode — select it from `/theme`
1264- Added `/less-permission-prompts` skill — scans transcripts for common read-only Bash and MCP tool calls and proposes a prioritized allowlist for `.claude/settings.json`
1265- 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
1266- Auto mode no longer requires `--enable-auto-mode`
1267- 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)
1268- Read-only bash commands with glob patterns (e.g. `ls *.ts`) and commands starting with `cd <project-dir> &&` no longer trigger a permission prompt
1269- Suggest the closest matching subcommand when `claude <word>` is invoked with a near-miss typo (e.g. `claude udpate` → "Did you mean `claude update`?")
1270- Plan files are now named after your prompt (e.g. `fix-auth-race-snug-otter.md`) instead of purely random words
1271- 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
1272- `/skills` menu now supports sorting by estimated token count — press `t` to toggle
1273- `Ctrl+U` now clears the entire input buffer (previously: delete to start of line); press `Ctrl+Y` to restore
1274- `Ctrl+L` now forces a full screen redraw in addition to clearing the prompt input
1275- Transcript view footer now shows `[` (dump to scrollback) and `v` (open in editor) shortcuts
1276- The "+N lines" marker for truncated long pastes is now a full-width rule for easier scanning
1277- Headless `--output-format stream-json` now includes `plugin_errors` on the init event when plugins are demoted for unsatisfied dependencies

1279- Suppressed spurious decompression, network, and transient error messages that could appear in the TUI during normal operation
1280- Reverted the v2.1.110 cap on non-streaming fallback retries — it traded long waits for more outright failures during API overload
1281- Fixed terminal display tearing (random characters, drifting input) in iTerm2 + tmux setups when terminal notifications are sent
1282- 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
1283- Fixed LSP diagnostics from before an edit appearing after it, causing the model to re-read files it just edited
1284- Fixed tab-completing `/resume` immediately resuming an arbitrary titled session instead of showing the session picker
1285- Fixed `/context` grid rendering with extra blank lines between rows
1286- Fixed `/clear` dropping the session name set by `/rename`, causing statusline output to lose `session_name`
1287- 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
1288- Fixed Claude calling a non-existent `commit` skill and showing "Unknown skill: commit" for users without a custom `/commit` command
1289- Fixed 429 rate-limit errors on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry referencing status.claude.com (it only covers Anthropic-operated providers)
1290- Fixed feedback surveys appearing back-to-back after dismissing one
1291- Fixed bare URLs in bash/PowerShell/MCP tool output being unclickable when the terminal wraps them across lines
1292- Windows: `CLAUDE_ENV_FILE` and SessionStart hook environment files now apply (previously a no-op)
1293- 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
1294
1295## 2.1.110
1296
1297- Added `/tui` command and `tui` setting — run `/tui fullscreen` to switch to flicker-free rendering in the same conversation
1298- Added push notification tool — Claude can send mobile push notifications when Remote Control and "Push when Claude decides" config are enabled

1313- Fixed high CPU usage in fullscreen when text is selected while a tool is running
1314- Fixed plugin install not honoring dependencies declared in `plugin.json` when the marketplace entry omits them; `/plugin` install now lists auto-installed dependencies

1321- Hardened "Open in editor" actions against command injection from untrusted filenames
1322- Fixed `PermissionRequest` hooks returning `updatedInput` not being re-checked against `permissions.deny` rules; `setMode:'bypassPermissions'` updates now respect `disableBypassPermissionsMode`
1323- Fixed `PreToolUse` hook `additionalContext` being dropped when the tool call fails
1324- Fixed stdio MCP servers that print stray non-JSON lines to stdout being disconnected on the first stray line (regression in 2.1.105)

1335## 2.1.108
1336
1337- 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
1338- 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.
1339- The model can now discover and invoke built-in slash commands like `/init`, `/review`, and `/security-review` via the Skill tool
1340- `/undo` is now an alias for `/rewind`
1341- Improved `/model` to warn before switching models mid-conversation, since the next response re-reads the full history uncached
1342- Improved `/resume` picker to default to sessions from the current directory; press `Ctrl+A` to show all projects
1343- 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
1344- Reduced memory footprint for file reads, edits, and syntax highlighting by loading language grammars on demand
1345- Added "verbose" indicator when viewing the detailed transcript (`Ctrl+O`)
1346- Added a warning at startup when prompt caching is disabled via `DISABLE_PROMPT_CACHING*` environment variables
1347- Fixed paste not working in the `/login` code prompt (regression in 2.1.105)
1348- Fixed subscribers who set `DISABLE_TELEMETRY` falling back to 5-minute prompt cache TTL instead of 1 hour

1352- Fixed session titles showing placeholder example text when the first message is a short greeting
1353- Fixed terminal escape codes appearing as garbage text in the prompt input after `--teleport`
1354- Fixed `/feedback` retry: pressing Enter to resubmit after a failure now works without first editing the description
1355- Fixed `--teleport` and `--resume <id>` precondition errors (e.g. dirty git tree, session not found) exiting silently instead of showing the error message

1439- Fixed Grep tool ENOENT when the embedded ripgrep binary path becomes stale (VS Code extension auto-update, macOS App Translocation); now falls back to system `rg` and self-heals mid-session
1440- Fixed `/btw` writing a copy of the entire conversation to disk on every use

1701- Changed hook output over 50K characters to be saved to disk with a file path + preview instead of being injected directly into context
1702- Changed `cleanupPeriodDays: 0` in settings.json to be rejected with a validation error — it previously silently disabled transcript persistence

1704- Documented `TaskCreated` hook event and its blocking behavior
1705- Preserved task notifications when backgrounding a running command with Ctrl+B
1706- PowerShell tool on Windows: external-command arguments containing both a double-quote and whitespace now prompt instead of auto-allowing (PS 5.1 argument-splitting hardening)

1871- Reduced scrollback resets in long sessions from once per turn to once per ~50 messages
1872- Faster `claude -p` startup with unauthenticated HTTP/SSE MCP servers (~600ms saved)
1873- Bash ghost-text suggestions now include just-submitted commands immediately
1874- Increased non-streaming fallback token cap (21k → 64k) and timeout (120s → 300s local) so fallback requests are less likely to be truncated

1883- Claude can now reference the on-disk path of clipboard-pasted images for file operations
1884- `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.

1900
1901## 2.1.81
1902
1903- 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
1904- Added `--channels` permission relay — channel servers that declare the permission capability can forward tool approval prompts to your phone

2205- Fixed parallel tool calls where a failed Read/WebFetch/Glob would cancel its siblings — only Bash errors now cascade
2206- VSCode: Fixed scroll speed in integrated terminals not matching native terminals
2207- VSCode: Fixed Shift+Enter submitting input instead of inserting a newline for users with older keybindings
2208- VSCode: Added effort level indicator on the input border
2209- VSCode: Added `vscode://anthropic.claude-code/open` URI handler to open a new Claude Code tab programmatically, with optional `prompt` and `session` query parameters
2210
2211## 2.1.71
2212
2213- Added `/loop` command to run a prompt or slash command on a recurring interval (e.g. `/loop 5m check the deploy`)
2214- Added cron scheduling tools for recurring prompts within a session
2215- 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
2216- Added `fmt`, `comm`, `cmp`, `numfmt`, `expr`, `test`, `printf`, `getconf`, `seq`, `tsort`, and `pr` to the bash auto-approval allowlist
2217- Fixed stdin freeze in long-running sessions where keystrokes stop being processed but the process stays alive
2218- Fixed a 5–8 second startup freeze for users with voice mode enabled, caused by CoreAudio initialization blocking the main thread after system wake
2219- Fixed startup UI freeze when many claude.ai proxy connectors refresh an expired OAuth token simultaneously
2220- Fixed forked conversations (`/fork`) sharing the same plan file, which caused plan edits in one fork to overwrite the other
2221- Fixed the Read tool putting oversized images into context when image processing failed, breaking subsequent turns in long image-heavy sessions
2222- Fixed false-positive permission prompts for compound bash commands containing heredoc commit messages
2223- Fixed plugin installations being lost when running multiple Claude Code instances
2224- Fixed claude.ai connectors failing to reconnect after OAuth token refresh
2225- Fixed claude.ai MCP connector startup notifications appearing for every org-configured connector instead of only previously connected ones
2226- Fixed background agent completion notifications missing the output file path, which made it difficult for parent agents to recover agent results after context compaction
2227- Fixed duplicate output in Bash tool error messages when commands exit with non-zero status
2228- Fixed Chrome extension auto-detection getting permanently stuck on "not installed" after running on a machine without local Chrome
2229- Fixed `/plugin marketplace update` failing with merge conflicts when the marketplace is pinned to a branch/tag ref
2230- Fixed `/plugin marketplace add owner/repo@ref` incorrectly parsing `@` — previously only `#` worked as a ref separator, causing undiagnosable errors with `strictKnownMarketplaces`
2231- Fixed duplicate entries in `/permissions` Workspace tab when the same directory is added with and without a trailing slash
2232- Fixed `--print` hanging forever when team agents are configured — the exit loop no longer waits on long-lived `in_process_teammate` tasks
2233- Fixed "❯ Tool loaded." appearing in the REPL after every `ToolSearch` call
2234- Fixed prompting for `cd <cwd> && git ...` on Windows when the model uses a mingw-style path
2235- Improved startup time by deferring native image processor loading to first use
2236- Improved bridge session reconnection to complete within seconds after laptop wake from sleep, instead of waiting up to 10 minutes
2237- 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
2238- 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.
2239- Updated `/debug` to toggle debug logging on mid-session, since debug logs are no longer written by default
2240- Removed startup notification noise for unauthenticated org-registered claude.ai connectors
2241
2242## 2.1.70
2243
2244- 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
2245- 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
2246- 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
2247- Fixed prompt-cache bust when an MCP server with `instructions` connects after the first turn
2248- Fixed Enter inserting a newline instead of submitting when typing over a slow SSH connection
2249- Fixed clipboard corrupting non-ASCII text (CJK, emoji) on Windows/WSL by using PowerShell `Set-Clipboard`
2250- Fixed extra VS Code windows opening at startup on Windows when running from the VS Code integrated terminal
2251- Fixed voice mode failing on Windows native binary with "native audio module could not be loaded"
2252- Fixed push-to-talk not activating on session start when `voiceEnabled: true` was set in settings
2253- Fixed markdown links containing `#NNN` references incorrectly pointing to the current repository instead of the linked URL
2254- Fixed repeated "Model updated to Opus 4.6" notification when a project's `.claude/settings.json` has a legacy Opus model string pinned
2255- Fixed plugins showing as inaccurately installed in `/plugin`
2256- Fixed plugins showing "not found in marketplace" errors on fresh startup by auto-refreshing after marketplace installation
2257- Fixed `/security-review` command failing with `unknown option merge-base` on older git versions
2258- 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
2259- Fixed a performance regression in the `AskUserQuestion` preview dialog that re-ran markdown rendering on every keystroke in the notes input
2260- Fixed feature flags read during early startup never refreshing their disk cache, causing stale values to persist across sessions
2261- Fixed `permissions.defaultMode` settings values other than `acceptEdits` or `plan` being applied in Claude Code Remote environments — they are now ignored
2262- Fixed skill listing being re-injected on every `--resume` (~600 tokens saved per resume)
2263- Fixed teleport marker not rendering in VS Code teleported sessions
2264- Improved error message when microphone captures silence to distinguish from "no speech detected"
2265- Improved compaction to preserve images in the summarizer request, allowing prompt cache reuse for faster and cheaper compaction
2266- Improved `/rename` to work while Claude is processing, instead of being silently queued
2267- Reduced prompt input re-renders during turns by ~74%
2268- Reduced startup memory by ~426KB for users without custom CA certificates
2269- 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.
2270- [VSCode] Added spark icon in VS Code activity bar that lists all Claude Code sessions, with sessions opening as full editors
2271- [VSCode] Added full markdown document view for plans in VS Code, with support for adding comments to provide feedback
2272- [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
2273
2274## 2.1.69
2275
2276- Added the `/claude-api` skill for building applications with the Claude API and Anthropic SDK
2277- Added Ctrl+U on an empty bash prompt (`!`) to exit bash mode, matching `escape` and `backspace`
2278- Added numeric keypad support for selecting options in Claude's interview questions (previously only the number row above QWERTY worked)
2279- 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
2280- Added Voice STT support for 10 new languages (20 total) — Russian, Polish, Turkish, Dutch, Ukrainian, Greek, Czech, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian
2281- Added effort level display (e.g., "with low effort") to the logo and spinner, making it easier to see which effort setting is active
2282- Added agent name display in terminal title when using `claude --agent`
2283- 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`
2284- 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
2285- Added `/reload-plugins` command to activate pending plugin changes without restarting
2286- Added a one-time startup prompt suggesting Claude Code Desktop on macOS and Windows (max 3 showings, dismissible)
2287- Added `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}` variable for skills to reference their own directory in SKILL.md content
2288- Added `InstructionsLoaded` hook event that fires when CLAUDE.md or `.claude/rules/*.md` files are loaded into context
2289- Added `agent_id` (for subagents) and `agent_type` (for subagents and `--agent`) to hook events
2290- Added `worktree` field to status line hook commands with name, path, branch, and original repo directory when running in a `--worktree` session
2291- Added `pluginTrustMessage` in managed settings to append organization-specific context to the plugin trust warning shown before installation
2292- Added policy limit fetching (e.g., remote control restrictions) for Team plan OAuth users, not just Enterprise
2293- Added `pathPattern` to `strictKnownMarketplaces` for regex-matching file/directory marketplace sources alongside `hostPattern` restrictions
2294- Added plugin source type `git-subdir` to point to a subdirectory within a git repo
2295- Added `oauth.authServerMetadataUrl` config option for MCP servers to specify a custom OAuth metadata discovery URL when standard discovery fails
2296- Fixed a security issue where nested skill discovery could load skills from gitignored directories like `node_modules`
2297- Fixed trust dialog silently enabling all `.mcp.json` servers on first run. You'll now see the per-server approval dialog as expected
2298- Fixed `claude remote-control` crashing immediately on npm installs with "bad option: --sdk-url" (anthropics/claude-code#28334)
2299- Fixed `--model claude-opus-4-0` and `--model claude-opus-4-1` resolving to deprecated Opus versions instead of current
2300- 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.
2301- 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)
2302- Fixed ghost dotfiles (`.bashrc`, `HEAD`, etc.) appearing as untracked files in the working directory after sandboxed Bash commands on Linux
2303- Fixed Shift+Enter printing `[27;2;13~` instead of inserting a newline in Ghostty over SSH
2304- Fixed stash (Ctrl+S) being cleared when submitting a message while Claude is working
2305- Fixed ctrl+o (transcript toggle) freezing for many seconds in long sessions with lots of file edits
2306- Fixed plan mode feedback input not supporting multi-line text entry (backslash+Enter and Shift+Enter now insert newlines)
2307- Fixed cursor not moving down into blank lines at the top of the input box
2308- Fixed `/stats` crash when transcript files contain entries with missing or malformed timestamps
2309- 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)
2310- Fixed `--setting-sources user` not blocking dynamically discovered project skills
2311- Fixed duplicate CLAUDE.md, slash commands, agents, and rules when running from a worktree nested inside its main repo (e.g. `claude -w`)
2312- Fixed plugin Stop/SessionEnd/etc hooks not firing after any `/plugin` operation
2313- Fixed plugin hooks being silently dropped when two plugins use the same `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/...` command template
2314- Fixed memory leak in long-running SDK/CCR sessions where conversation messages were retained unnecessarily
2315- Fixed API 400 errors in forked agents (autocompact, summarization) when resuming sessions that were interrupted mid-tool-batch
2316- Fixed "unexpected tool_use_id found in tool_result blocks" error when resuming conversations that start with an orphaned tool result
2317- Fixed teammates accidentally spawning nested teammates via the Agent tool's `name` parameter
2318- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_OUTPUT_TOKENS` being ignored during conversation compaction
2319- Fixed `/compact` summary rendering as a user bubble in SDK consumers (Claude Code Remote web UI, VSCode extension)
2320- Fixed voice space bar getting stuck after a failed voice activation (module loading race, cold GrowthBook)
2321- Fixed worktree file copy on Windows
2322- Fixed global `.claude` folder detection on Windows
2323- Fixed symlink bypass where writing new files through a symlinked parent directory could escape the working directory in `acceptEdits` mode
2324- 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
2325- 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
2326- Fixed multi-GB memory spike when committing with large untracked binary files in the working tree
2327- 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.
2328- Fixed Android app crash when running local slash commands (`/voice`, `/cost`) in Remote Control sessions
2329- Fixed a memory leak where old message array versions accumulated in React Compiler `memoCache` over long sessions
2330- Fixed a memory leak where REPL render scopes accumulated over long sessions (~35MB over 1000 turns)
2331- 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
2332- Fixed a memory leak in interactive mode where hook events could accumulate unboundedly during long sessions
2333- Fixed hang when `--mcp-config` points to a corrupted file
2334- Fixed slow startup when many skills/plugins are installed
2335- Fixed `cd <outside-dir> && <cmd>` permission prompt to surface the chained command instead of only showing "Yes, allow reading from <dir>/"
2336- Fixed conditional `.claude/rules/*.md` files (with `paths:` frontmatter) and nested CLAUDE.md files not loading in print mode (`claude -p`)
2337- Fixed `/clear` not fully clearing all session caches, reducing memory retention in long sessions
2338- Fixed terminal flicker caused by animated elements at the scrollback boundary
2339- Fixed UI frame drops on macOS when using MCP servers with OAuth (regression from 2.1.x)
2340- Fixed occasional frame stalls during typing caused by synchronous debug log flushes
2341- Fixed `TeammateIdle` and `TaskCompleted` hooks to support `{"continue": false, "stopReason": "..."}` to stop the teammate, matching `Stop` hook behavior
2342- Fixed `WorktreeCreate` and `WorktreeRemove` plugin hooks being silently ignored
2343- Fixed skill descriptions with colons (e.g., "Triggers include: X, Y, Z") failing to load from SKILL.md frontmatter
2344- Fixed project skills without a `description:` frontmatter field not appearing in Claude's available skills list
2345- Fixed `/context` showing identical token counts for all MCP tools from a server
2346- Fixed literal `nul` file creation on Windows when the model uses CMD-style `2>nul` redirection in Git Bash
2347- Fixed extra blank lines appearing below each tool call in the expanded subagent transcript view (Ctrl+O)
2348- Fixed Tab/arrow keys not cycling Settings tabs when `/config` search box is focused but empty
2349- Fixed service key OAuth sessions (CCR containers) spamming `[ERROR]` logs with 403s from profile-scoped endpoints
2350- Fixed inconsistent color for "Remote Control active" status indicator
2351- Fixed Voice waveform cursor covering the first suffix letter when dictating mid-input
2352- Fixed Voice input showing all 5 spaces during warmup instead of capping at ~2 (aligning with the "keep holding…" hint)
2353- Improved spinner performance by isolating the 50ms animation loop from the surrounding shell, reducing render and CPU overhead during turns
2354- Improved UI rendering performance in native binaries with React Compiler
2355- Improved `--worktree` startup by eliminating a git subprocess on the startup path
2356- Improved macOS startup by eliminating redundant settings-file reloads when managed settings resolve
2357- Improved macOS startup for Claude.ai enterprise/team users by skipping an unnecessary keychain lookup
2358- Improved MCP `-p` startup by pipelining claude.ai config fetch with local connections and using a concurrency pool instead of sequential batching
2359- Improved voice startup by removing imperceptible warmup pulse animations that were causing re-render stutter
2360- 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.
2361- Improved memory usage in long sessions by stabilizing `onSubmit` across message updates
2362- Improved LSP tool rendering and memory context building to no longer read entire files
2363- Improved session upload and memory sync to avoid reading large files into memory before size/binary checks
2364- Improved file operation performance by avoiding reading file contents for existence checks (6 sites)
2365- Improved documentation to clarify that `--append-system-prompt-file` and `--system-prompt-file` work in interactive mode (the docs previously said print mode only)
2366- Reduced baseline memory by ~16MB by deferring Yoga WASM preloading
2367- Reduced memory footprint for SDK and CCR sessions using stream-json output
2368- Reduced memory usage when resuming large sessions (including compacted history)
2369- Reduced token usage on multi-agent tasks with more concise subagent final reports
2370- Changed Sonnet 4.5 users on Pro/Max/Team Premium to be automatically migrated to Sonnet 4.6
2371- Changed the `/resume` picker to show your most recent prompt instead of the first one. This also resolves some titles appearing as `(session)`.
2372- Changed claude.ai MCP connector failures to show a notification instead of silently disappearing from the tool list
2373- Changed example command suggestions to be generated deterministically instead of calling Haiku
2374- Changed resuming after compaction to no longer produce a preamble recap before continuing
2375- [SDK] Changed task creation to no longer require the `activeForm` field — the spinner falls back to the task subject
2376- [VSCode] Added compaction display as a collapsible "Compacted chat" card with the summary inside
2377- [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
2378- [VSCode] Fixed RTL text (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian) rendering reversed in the chat panel (regression in v2.1.63)
2379
2380## 2.1.68
2381
2382- 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`
2383- Re-introduced the "ultrathink" keyword to enable high effort for the next turn
2384- 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
2385
2386## 2.1.66
2387
2388- Reduced spurious error logging
2389
2390## 2.1.63
2391
2392- Added `/simplify` and `/batch` bundled slash commands
2393- Fixed local slash command output like /cost appearing as user-sent messages instead of system messages in the UI
2394- Project configs & auto memory now shared across git worktrees of the same repository
2395- Added `ENABLE_CLAUDEAI_MCP_SERVERS=false` env var to opt out from making claude.ai MCP servers available
2396- Improved `/model` command to show the currently active model in the slash command menu
2397- Added HTTP hooks, which can POST JSON to a URL and receive JSON instead of running a shell command
2398- Fixed listener leak in bridge polling loop
2399- Fixed listener leak in MCP OAuth flow cleanup
2400- 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.
2401- Fixed memory leak when navigating hooks configuration menu
2402- Fixed listener leak in interactive permission handler during auto-approvals
2403- Fixed file count cache ignoring glob ignore patterns
2404- Fixed memory leak in bash command prefix cache
2405- Fixed MCP tool/resource cache leak on server reconnect
2406- Fixed IDE host IP detection cache incorrectly sharing results across ports
2407- Fixed WebSocket listener leak on transport reconnect
2408- Fixed memory leak in git root detection cache that could cause unbounded growth in long-running sessions
2409- Fixed memory leak in JSON parsing cache that grew unbounded over long sessions
2410- VSCode: Fixed remote sessions not appearing in conversation history
2411- 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.
2412- Fixed memory leak where long-running teammates retained all messages in AppState even after conversation compaction
2413- Fixed a memory leak where MCP server fetch caches were not cleared on disconnect, causing growing memory usage with servers that reconnect frequently
2414- Improved memory usage in long sessions with subagents by stripping heavy progress message payloads during context compaction
2415- 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.
2416- VSCode: Added session rename and remove actions to the sessions list
2417- Fixed `/clear` not resetting cached skills, which could cause stale skill content to persist in the new conversation
2418
2419## 2.1.62
2420
2421- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates
2422
2423## 2.1.61
2424
2425- Fixed concurrent writes corrupting config file on Windows
2426
2427## 2.1.59
2428
2429- Claude automatically saves useful context to auto-memory. Manage with /memory
2430- Added `/copy` command to show an interactive picker when code blocks are present, allowing selection of individual code blocks or the full response.
2431- 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
2432- Improved ordering of short task lists
2433- Improved memory usage in multi-agent sessions by releasing completed subagent task state
2434- Fixed MCP OAuth token refresh race condition when running multiple Claude Code instances simultaneously
2435- Fixed shell commands not showing a clear error message when the working directory has been deleted
2436- Fixed config file corruption that could wipe authentication when multiple Claude Code instances ran simultaneously
2437
2438## 2.1.58
2439
2440- Expand Remote Control to more users
2441
2442## 2.1.56
2443
2444- VS Code: Fixed another cause of "command 'claude-vscode.editor.openLast' not found" crashes
2445
2446## 2.1.55
2447
2448- Fixed BashTool failing on Windows with EINVAL error
2449
2450## 2.1.53
2451
2452- Fixed a UI flicker where user input would briefly disappear after submission before the message rendered
2453- Fixed bulk agent kill (ctrl+f) to send a single aggregate notification instead of one per agent, and to properly clear the command queue
2454- Fixed graceful shutdown sometimes leaving stale sessions when using Remote Control by parallelizing teardown network calls
2455- Fixed `--worktree` sometimes being ignored on first launch
2456- Fixed a panic ("switch on corrupted value") on Windows
2457- Fixed a crash that could occur when spawning many processes on Windows
2458- Fixed a crash in the WebAssembly interpreter on Linux x64 & Windows x64
2459- Fixed a crash that sometimes occurred after 2 minutes on Windows ARM64
2460
2461## 2.1.52
2462
2463- VS Code: Fixed extension crash on Windows ("command 'claude-vscode.editor.openLast' not found")
2464
2465## 2.1.51
2466
2467- Added `claude remote-control` subcommand for external builds, enabling local environment serving for all users.
2468- Updated plugin marketplace default git timeout from 30s to 120s and added `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS` to configure.
2469- Added support for custom npm registries and specific version pinning when installing plugins from npm sources
2470- 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`.
2471- Fixed a security issue where `statusLine` and `fileSuggestion` hook commands could execute without workspace trust acceptance in interactive mode.
2472- Tool results larger than 50K characters are now persisted to disk (previously 100K). This reduces context window usage and improves conversation longevity.
2473- 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.
2474- 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.
2475- Fixed slash command autocomplete crashing when a plugin's SKILL.md description is a YAML array or other non-string type
2476- 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.
2477- Managed settings can now be set via macOS plist or Windows Registry. Learn more at https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings#settings-files
2478
2479## 2.1.50
2480
2481- Added support for `startupTimeout` configuration for LSP servers
2482- Added `WorktreeCreate` and `WorktreeRemove` hook events, enabling custom VCS setup and teardown when agent worktree isolation creates or removes worktrees.
2483- 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.
2484- Linux: Fixed native modules not loading on systems with glibc older than 2.30 (e.g., RHEL 8)
2485- Fixed memory leak in agent teams where completed teammate tasks were never garbage collected from session state
2486- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE` to fully strip down skills, session memory, custom agents, and CLAUDE.md token counting
2487- Fixed `/mcp reconnect` freezing the CLI when given a server name that doesn't exist
2488- Fixed memory leak where completed task state objects were never removed from AppState
2489- Added support for `isolation: worktree` in agent definitions, allowing agents to declaratively run in isolated git worktrees.
2490- `CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE` mode now also disables MCP tools, attachments, hooks, and CLAUDE.md file loading for a fully minimal experience.
2491- Fixed bug where MCP tools were not discovered when tool search is enabled and a prompt is passed in as a launch argument
2492- Improved memory usage during long sessions by clearing internal caches after compaction
2493- Added `claude agents` CLI command to list all configured agents
2494- Improved memory usage during long sessions by clearing large tool results after they have been processed
2495- Fixed a memory leak where LSP diagnostic data was never cleaned up after delivery, causing unbounded memory growth in long sessions
2496- Fixed a memory leak where completed task output was not freed from memory, reducing memory usage in long sessions with many tasks
2497- Improved startup performance for headless mode (`-p` flag) by deferring Yoga WASM and UI component imports
2498- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates

2534- 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.
2535- 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
2536
2537## 2.1.47
2538
2539- Fixed FileWriteTool line counting to preserve intentional trailing blank lines instead of stripping them with `trimEnd()`.
2540- 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.
2541- 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.
2542- 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.
2543- 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)
2544- Improved memory usage in long-running sessions by releasing API stream buffers, agent context, and skill state after use

2556- 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.
2557- Simplified teammate navigation to use only Shift+Down (with wrapping) instead of both Shift+Up and Shift+Down.
2558- 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.

2576- Fixed CJK wide characters causing misaligned timestamps and layout elements in the TUI (anthropics/claude-code#26084)
2577- Fixed custom agent `model` field in `.claude/agents/*.md` being ignored when spawning team teammates (anthropics/claude-code#26064)
2578- Fixed plan mode being lost after context compaction, causing the model to switch from planning to implementation mode (anthropics/claude-code#26061)
2579- Fixed `alwaysThinkingEnabled: true` in settings.json not enabling thinking mode on Bedrock and Vertex providers (anthropics/claude-code#26074)
2580- Fixed `tool_decision` OTel telemetry event not being emitted in headless/SDK mode (anthropics/claude-code#26059)
2581- Fixed session name being lost after context compaction — renamed sessions now preserve their custom title through compaction (anthropics/claude-code#26121)
2582- Increased initial session count in resume picker from 10 to 50 for faster session discovery (anthropics/claude-code#26123)

2586- Fixed React crash (error #31) when a skill's `argument-hint` in SKILL.md frontmatter uses YAML sequence syntax (e.g., `[topic: foo | bar]`) — the value is now properly coerced to a string (anthropics/claude-code#25826)
2587- Fixed crash when using `/fork` on sessions that used web search — null entries in search results from transcript deserialization are now handled gracefully (anthropics/claude-code#25811)
2588- Fixed read-only git commands triggering FSEvents file watcher loops on macOS by adding --no-optional-locks flag (anthropics/claude-code#25750)

2755
2756- Added `pages` parameter to the Read tool for PDFs, allowing specific page ranges to be read (e.g., `pages: "1-5"`). Large PDFs (>10 pages) now return a lightweight reference when `@` mentioned instead of being inlined into context.
2757- Added pre-configured OAuth client credentials for MCP servers that don't support Dynamic Client Registration (e.g., Slack). Use `--client-id` and `--client-secret` with `claude mcp add`.
