2
3## 2.1.203
4
5- Added a warning when your login is about to expire, so you can re-authenticate before background sessions are interrupted
6- Added a grey ⏸ badge to the footer when in manual permission mode, making the active mode always visible
7- Added the session's additional working directories to MCP `roots/list`, with `notifications/roots/list_changed` sent when the set changes
8- Fixed opening or switching background agent sessions on macOS stalling for 15–20 seconds due to a false low-memory detection (regression in 2.1.196)
9- Fixed background sessions becoming permanently unresponsive to attach, replies, and stop when the daemon's session token went stale — the session now recovers automatically
10- Fixed returning to `claude agents` silently stopping running subagents and re-running the prompt from scratch — their work now carries over
11- Fixed a memory and per-turn CPU regression in interactive sessions: the context-usage indicator no longer re-analyzes the entire transcript after every turn
12- Fixed background agents inheriting a stale `PATH` from the daemon instead of the dispatching shell, causing missing tools on Windows
13- Fixed background and agent-view sessions dropping a shell-exported `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL`, which sent API keys to the default endpoint and failed with 401
14- Fixed Bash failing with "argument list too long" in repos with many git worktrees
15- Fixed worktree-isolated subagents sometimes running shell commands in the parent checkout instead of their own worktree
16- Fixed worktree creation rejecting nested repositories in multi-repo workspaces, leaving background sessions unable to isolate and edit
17- Fixed background agents crash-looping when their working directory was deleted, replaced by a file, or became an invalid path — they now fail once with a clear error
18- Fixed a background daemon auto-upgrade failure silently killing all running background sessions
19- Fixed `TaskStop` and `TaskOutput` failing to find background agents spawned by another agent — errors now list running agents by id and description
20- Fixed the `claude agents` composer discarding your typed message when a slash command isn't available there
21- Fixed the agent list crashing when opening a stopped session whose conversation was already open in another session
22- Fixed background sessions showing "Needs input" in the agent list after the question was already answered
23- Fixed background agent startup failures showing only "exit_with_message" instead of the actual error
24- Fixed background sessions ignoring `effortLevel` changes in settings.json when forked through the daemon
25- Fixed attached background sessions ignoring `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_MOUSE` and `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_MOUSE_CLICKS` opt-outs
26- Fixed `/exit` incorrectly warning about running background agents after all named agents had completed
27- Fixed background sessions started from a non-git directory unable to edit files when a `WorktreeCreate` hook was configured
28- Fixed the `@` directory picker in `claude agents` not showing registered git worktrees
29- Fixed background task output on Windows being permanently replaced by an empty file after `/clear`
30- Fixed content jumping when scrolling up through long transcript history
31- Fixed the terminal flickering and jumping while typing in bash mode when a shell-history suggestion was shown
32- Fixed literal `^[[I` / `^[[O` escape codes being printed when reattaching to a background session
33- Fixed LSP-only plugins being incorrectly flagged for disuse when their language servers deliver diagnostics or answer navigation requests
34- Improved responsiveness while long responses stream: live-preview updates no longer re-render the whole screen
35- Improved subagent behavior: agents are now less likely to re-delegate their entire task to another subagent
36- Reduced binary size by ~7 MB and startup memory by ~7 MB by loading a large bundled dependency lazily instead of inlining it
37- Changed left arrow to no longer close the background tasks, diff, and workflow detail views — press Esc instead
38- Changed the empty `claude agents` view to always show the organized sections (Needs input / Working / Completed) with descriptions
39- Removed the startup "claude command missing or broken" warnings — they now appear in `/doctor` and `/status` instead
40- Removed a redundant navigation hint from the `claude agents` footer
41- [VSCode] Added a Settings toggle for "Enable Remote Control for all sessions"
42
43## 2.1.202
44
45- Added a "Dynamic workflow size" setting in `/config` for controlling how large Claude generally makes dynamic workflows (small/medium/large agent counts) — an advisory guideline, not an enforced cap
46- Added `workflow.run_id` and `workflow.name` OpenTelemetry attributes to telemetry emitted by workflow-spawned agents, so a workflow run's activity can be reconstructed from OTel data
47- Fixed a crash in the inline Ctrl+R history search when accepting or cancelling while the search was still scanning the history file
48- Fixed `/rename` on background sessions being reverted when the job restarts, which broke addressing the session by its new name
49- Fixed transient mTLS handshake failures when settings were re-applied during an in-place client certificate rotation
50- Fixed commands sent from Remote Control (mobile/web) into an interactive session failing with "Unknown command"
51- Fixed images and files sent from the Remote Control mobile or web app without a caption being silently dropped
52- Fixed the sign-in URL printed by `claude auth login` and `claude mcp login --no-browser` not being reliably clickable when it wraps over SSH — it is now emitted as a single hyperlink
53- Fixed opening a chat from `claude agents` sometimes failing with "currently running as a background agent" followed by a worker crash/respawn loop
54- Fixed workflow scripts with unicode quote escapes in strings being corrupted before parsing; workflow parse errors now show the offending line instead of always blaming TypeScript
55- Fixed voice dictation retrying in an unbounded loop when the microphone or audio recorder fails — repeated capture failures now pause voice input
56- Fixed `/remote-control` sessions showing the wrong permission mode in the mobile and web apps
57- Fixed resuming a session by name, or opening the resume picker, taking minutes and using a large amount of memory in repositories with many git worktrees
58- Fixed installer and updater downloads failing immediately with "aborted" when a proxy or network drops the connection mid-download — transient connection drops now retry
59- Fixed re-invoking an already-loaded skill appending a duplicate copy of its instructions to context
60- Improved `/workflows` agent list layout: wider titles, a dedicated time column, shorter model names, and no per-row tool-call counts
61- Improved MCP error messages: clearer error when a server config has `url` but no `type`, suggesting `"type": "http"` instead of the misleading "command: expected string"
62- Changed `/review <pr>` back to a fast single-pass review; use `/code-review <level> <pr#>` for the multi-agent review at a chosen effort level
63
64## 2.1.201
65
66- Claude Sonnet 5 sessions no longer use the mid-conversation system role for harness reminders
67
68## 2.1.200
69
70- Changed `AskUserQuestion` dialogs to no longer auto-continue by default; opt into an idle timeout via `/config`
71- Changed the "default" permission mode to "Manual" across the CLI, `--help`, VS Code, and JetBrains; `--permission-mode manual` and `"defaultMode": "manual"` are accepted alongside `default`
72- Fixed a crash at startup when `disabledMcpServers` or `enabledMcpServers` in `.claude.json` is set to a non-array value
73- Fixed background sessions silently stopping mid-turn after sleep/wake or when reopening a stalled session
74- Fixed background sessions re-running a turn cancelled with Esc after a stall respawn
75- Fixed background agents never starting again after a crash left a stale `daemon.lock` whose PID the OS reused
76- Fixed background-agent daemon handover so a reinstalled older build can no longer take over the daemon; build recency is now judged by the version's embedded build timestamp
77- Fixed background-agent roster issues: transient corruption permanently disabling orphan cleanup, older binaries not preserving fields written by newer versions, and socket auth tokens being stripped during daemon restarts
78- Fixed subagents cut off by a rate limit before producing any text output returning an empty result instead of failing cleanly
79- Fixed control bytes from background-agent output reaching the terminal in the agent view
80- Fixed `claude agents --plugin-dir <dir>` not showing the plugin's agents and skills in the agent view when the flag is placed after `agents`
81- Fixed project-scoped plugins not loading correctly from git worktrees of the same repository
82- Fixed `/mcp` server list not tracking focus for screen readers and magnifiers
83- Fixed voice dictation showing a misleading "Voice connection failed" message when a recording captures no audio
84- Fixed rendering flicker under tmux 3.4+ by enabling synchronized terminal output
85- Improved screen-reader output: decorative glyphs are now hidden, transcript symbols read as short labels, and nested tables read as `Header: value.` lines
86- Improved the install script to explain when installation is killed by the system running out of memory
87
88## 2.1.199
89
90- Stacked slash-skill invocations like `/skill-a /skill-b do XYZ` now load all leading skills (up to 5), not just the first
91- Fixed SSL certificate errors (TLS-inspecting proxies, missing `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS`, expired certs) burning retries before showing actionable guidance — they now fail immediately with the fix hint
92- Fixed streaming responses being discarded when the API emits a mid-stream overloaded/server error after partial output — the partial is now kept with an incomplete-response notice
93- Fixed subagents cut off by a rate limit or server error silently failing instead of returning their partial work to the parent
94- Fixed subagents reporting API errors (e.g. usage limit reached) as successful results — the error is now reported to the parent agent
95- Fixed the background-agent daemon on Linux killing itself and every running agent every ~50 seconds after an unclean shutdown left a corrupted worker record
96- Fixed background agents failing to cold-start over SSH on macOS with "Could not switch to audit session" (regression in 2.1.196)
97- Fixed `claude stop` being silently undone when it raced a background-agent respawn — the respawn now honors the stop
98- Fixed background job progress indicators stalling for minutes while the job ran long commands
99- Fixed background sessions on memory-starved machines showing a generic error — they now indicate low memory and suggest freeing resources
100- Fixed remote sessions briefly flapping between Working and Idle in the agent view when a background agent completes
101- Fixed idle subagents vanishing from the agent panel while other subagents were still working; surplus idle agents now collapse into an expandable summary row
102- Fixed typing `/model` or `/fast` while viewing a subagent silently opening the lead's model picker — a notice now explains the command applies to the lead
103- Fixed `SessionStart`, `Setup`, and `SubagentStart` hooks silently hiding stderr when exiting with code 2 — the error is now shown in the transcript
104- Fixed `claude --dangerously-skip-permissions daemon <subcommand>` being treated as a chat prompt instead of running the subcommand
105- Fixed `SendMessage` silently misrouting when a re-spawned agent reuses a previous agent's name — the tool now detects the mismatch and asks the caller to retarget
106- Fixed opening or resuming a session with no new messages needlessly growing the transcript file
107- Fixed backgrounding a session with `←` or `/background` dropping its `/color` from the agent view row
108- Fixed resetting a corrupted config file from the startup recovery dialog destroying it unrecoverably — it now backs up the file first
109- Fixed Claude in Chrome repeatedly opening the reconnect page when sessions run from different builds or config directories
110- Fixed plan mode not prompting for state-changing browser tool calls; read-only `browser_batch` calls are now correctly auto-allowed
111- Transient server rate-limit errors (429s unrelated to your usage limit) are now retried automatically with backoff for subscribers instead of failing the turn
112- `CLAUDE_CODE_RETRY_WATCHDOG` now raises the default retry count for non-capacity transient errors to 300 and lifts the cap of 15 on `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_RETRIES`
113- `claude agents` session rows now show pull-request links as bare `#N` without the redundant "PR" label
114
115## 2.1.198
116
117- Subagents now run in the background by default, so Claude keeps working while they run and is notified when they finish (previously a gradual rollout)
118- Claude in Chrome is now generally available
119- Added background agent notifications in `claude agents` — sessions that need input or finish now fire the `Notification` hook (`agent_needs_input` / `agent_completed`)
120- Added `/dataviz` skill for chart and dashboard design guidance with a runnable color-palette validator
121- Gateway: added Claude Platform on AWS (anthropicAws) as an upstream provider; model-not-found responses now advance the failover chain
122- Background agents launched from `claude agents` now commit, push, and open a draft PR when they finish code work in a worktree, instead of stopping to ask
123- The built-in Explore agent now inherits the main session's model (capped at opus) instead of running on haiku
124- Subagents and context compaction now inherit the session's extended thinking configuration, improving output quality on delegated tasks
125- Fixed brief network drops mid-response aborting the turn — transient errors like ECONNRESET now retry with backoff instead of failing
126- Fixed excessive background classifier requests when sandboxed processes repeatedly accessed the same network host
127- Fixed background tasks in web, desktop, and VS Code task panels getting stuck on "Running" after they finish or after resuming a session
128- Fixed agent teams: a teammate that dies on an API error now reports "failed" to the lead, and messaging a stuck teammate wakes it to retry immediately
129- Fixed the `/diff` panel not refreshing when you switch branches or commit outside the session
130- Fixed markdown tables overflowing and wrapping their right border when rendered in fullscreen mode
131- Fixed Claude Platform on AWS and Mantle sessions dead-ending with "Please run /login" when the STS token expires — `awsAuthRefresh` now runs automatically
132- Fixed "no route to host" for local-network hosts in macOS background agent sessions by declaring Local Network entitlements
133- Fixed `/desktop` failing with "Cannot determine working directory" after entering and exiting a worktree
134- Fixed background agents repeatedly showing "Reconnecting…" every ~52 seconds on macOS while the agents view was open
135- Fixed pressing `←` inside `claude attach <id>` exiting to the shell instead of opening the agent view
136- Fixed `claude --bg` silently creating an unattachable session when combined with `--print`/`-p`; the conflicting flags are now rejected up front
137- Fixed the workflow progress view dropping the earliest agents from the list while the phase counter stayed correct in SDK and desktop-app sessions
138- Fixed `.claude/rules/` conditional rules not loading when the target file is reached via a symlinked path
139- Fixed Cmd+click not opening URLs in fullscreen mode in Warp on macOS
140- Fixed double-click word selection in fullscreen mode to select the entire URL including the scheme
141- Fixed plan mode not auto-allowing read-only tool calls when a session starts in plan mode
142- Fixed `/branch` deriving its default fork name from the compaction summary instead of the first real prompt
143- Improved focus mode: subagents launched in a turn now appear in its activity summary, and completed background notifications fold into a single count
144- Improved syntax highlighting accuracy in code blocks, diffs, and file previews by upgrading to highlight.js 11
145- Keyboard shortcut hints now show opt/cmd instead of alt/super when connected from a Mac over SSH
146- Improved API retry UX: the error reason is now shown after the second attempt, and a status page link replaces the spinner tip when the API is overloaded
147- `/login` now opens the sign-in dialog from the `claude agents` view instead of saying it isn't available
148- Subagents now treat messages from the agent that launched them as normal task direction; an agent's message is still never treated as the user's approval
149- Removed the `/agents` wizard; ask Claude to create or manage subagents, or edit `.claude/agents/` directly
150
151## 2.1.197
152
153- Introducing Claude Sonnet 5: now the default model in Claude Code, with a native 1M-token context window and promotional pricing of $2/$10 per Mtok through August 31. Update to version 2.1.197 for access. https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-sonnet-5
154
155## 2.1.196
156
157- Added support for organization default models — admins set it in the org console; it shows as "Org default" (or "Role default") in `/model` when you haven't picked one yourself
158- Added readable default names for sessions at start, making them easier to identify and message
159- Added clickable file attachments in chat — Cmd/Ctrl-click reveals the file in Finder/Explorer
160- Security: `claude mcp list`/`get` no longer spawn `.mcp.json` servers that a repo self-approved via a committed `.claude/settings.json`; untrusted workspaces show `⏸ Pending approval`
161- Fixed waking a background job permanently deleting its conversation and re-running the original prompt when the transcript probe misread a real transcript; the file is now set aside, never deleted
162- Fixed the rate-limit warning flickering off and rate-limit telemetry being over-counted when multiple parallel requests were in flight at the moment a usage limit was hit
163- Fixed duplicate recap lines after a background session's turn: a schema-rejected StructuredOutput attempt no longer renders alongside its retry
164- Fixed PowerShell `git diff`/`git grep`, `egrep`/`fgrep`, and quoted search patterns containing `|` being reported as failures when they exit 1, matching Bash behavior
165- Fixed multiple `claude agents` side panel issues: keyboard focus getting stuck when opening an agent, background jobs losing their subagent types on every open, and sessions showing incorrect status while actively running
166- Fixed `claude agents --dangerously-skip-permissions` silently falling back to auto mode instead of showing the bypass disclaimer and applying bypass mode to spawned agents
167- Fixed mid-turn crash recovery for Remote sessions — sessions interrupted by a server restart now auto-resume on the next worker
168- Fixed sessions moved with `/cd` reappearing in the old directory's resume list after a non-graceful exit when the old path contained special characters
169- Fixed `claude plugin validate` skipping local plugins whose source is "." and stopping after the first error class
170- Fixed Esc Esc at an idle prompt not opening the rewind menu (regression); use Ctrl+C or Ctrl+X Ctrl+K to stop background agents
171- Fixed MCP OAuth requesting the authorization server's full `scopes_supported` catalog when no scope is specified, causing `invalid_scope` failures on GitLab self-hosted and other enterprise IdPs
172- Fixed `/context` showing 0 tokens for all tool groups on Bedrock
173- Fixed `/deep-research` misreporting verifier failures as "all claims refuted" instead of `unverified`
174- Fixed plugin dependency version pins not being honored when the marketplace was added as a local folder path backed by a git repo
175- Fixed `claude agents` session status: completed rows no longer flip between "Done" and "Needs your input", stalled agents are now labeled "Needs attention", and results that mention a PR show a clickable link
176- Fixed voice dictation swallowing spaces and spuriously starting a recording during very fast typing when voice mode is enabled
177- Improved background session reliability: long-running commands and workflows now survive the session's process being stopped, restarted, or updated — including on Windows, where background shells are handed off instead of being killed
178- Improved background agents: workers killed by a daemon restart are now automatically resumed from where they left off the next time the agents view opens
179- Improved `/code-review` workflow: merged five cleanup finders into one, cutting token usage by roughly 25%
180- Reduced per-frame rendering work in the terminal UI by skipping no-op subtree walks during streaming
181- The streaming idle watchdog is now on by default for all providers — it aborts and retries when a response stream produces no events for 5 minutes. Set `CLAUDE_ENABLE_STREAM_WATCHDOG=0` to disable.
182- Remote Control is now disabled when `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` points at a non-Anthropic host, matching the existing behavior under `CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK`/`_VERTEX`/`_FOUNDRY`
183- Changed opening the agents view from a foreground session to require a single `←` press instead of two, matching the behavior in background sessions
184
185## 2.1.195
186
187- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_MOUSE_CLICKS` to disable mouse click/drag/hover in fullscreen mode while keeping wheel scroll
188- Fixed hook matchers with hyphenated identifiers (e.g. `code-reviewer`, `mcp__brave-search`) accidentally substring-matching — they now exact-match. Use `mcp__brave-search__.*` to match all tools from a hyphenated MCP server.
189- Fixed voice dictation on macOS capturing silence in long-running sessions after the default input device changes
190- Fixed voice dictation auto-submit never firing for languages written without spaces (Japanese, Chinese, Thai)
191- Fixed external plugins enabled only by project `.claude/settings.json` not requiring explicit install consent on every loader path
192- Fixed `/plugin` Enable/Disable not working when a plugin's `plugin.json` `name` differs from its marketplace entry name
193- Fixed background jobs disappearing from `claude agents` or losing data when written by a newer Claude Code version
194- Fixed reopening a crashed background task showing a blank screen for up to 5 seconds instead of its restart
195- Fixed background agent daemons running unreachable when the control socket fails to start, blocking restarts
196- Improved voice mode on Linux: now distinguishes "no microphone" from "SoX not installed" when SoX is present but no audio capture device exists
197- Improved `claude agents` completed list to fill available vertical space; on short terminals the header compacts so live sessions stay visible
198- Improved Remote session startup with a provisioning checklist while the container starts
199
200## 2.1.193
201
202- Added `autoMode.classifyAllShell` setting to route all Bash/PowerShell commands through the auto-mode classifier instead of only arbitrary-code-execution patterns
203- Added auto-mode denial reasons to the transcript, the denial toast, and `/permissions` recent denials
204- Added `claude_code.assistant_response` OpenTelemetry log event containing the model's response text. Redacted unless `OTEL_LOG_ASSISTANT_RESPONSES=1`; when that var is unset it follows `OTEL_LOG_USER_PROMPTS`, so deployments that already log prompt content will start receiving response content on upgrade — set `OTEL_LOG_ASSISTANT_RESPONSES=0` to keep prompts-only.
205- Added live file path autocomplete to bash mode (`!`)
206- Added a startup notice when MCP servers need authentication, pointing at `/mcp`
207- Added automatic memory-pressure reaping for idle background shell commands (disable with `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_BG_SHELL_PRESSURE_REAP=1`)
208- Fixed `/model` and other client-data-gated UI showing stale/empty state immediately after `/login`
209- Fixed backgrounding (←←) spuriously cancelling with "N background tasks would be abandoned" when all running tasks carry over to the new session
210- Fixed pinned background agents being re-prompted to "Continue from where you left off" after every auto-update
211- Fixed backgrounding the main turn spawning a phantom "general-purpose (resumed)" subagent that re-ran the main conversation
212- Fixed agent panel hiding sibling agents when viewing a subagent
213- Improved background agents: the launch result no longer instructs Claude to "end your response" — it keeps working on other tasks while the agent runs
214- Improved MCP `headersHelper` auth: the helper now re-runs and reconnects automatically when a tool call returns 401/403
215- Improved plugin auto-rename: marketplace `renames` maps are now followed automatically, updating your settings to the new name
216- Improved `/add-dir` message when the directory is already a working directory
217
218## 2.1.191
219
220- Added `/rewind` support for resuming a conversation from before `/clear` was run
221- Fixed scroll position jumping to the bottom while reading earlier output during a streaming response
222- Fixed background agents resurrecting after being stopped — stopping an agent from the tasks panel is now permanent
223- Fixed `/voice` showing a generic "not available" message when disabled by an organization's policy — it now explains the restriction
224- Fixed `/login` URL opening truncated in Windows Terminal when it wraps across lines
225- Fixed Cmd+click on links in fullscreen mode for Ghostty over ssh/tmux
226- Fixed `claude agents` sending builtin slash commands like `/usage` to background sessions as prompt text instead of showing a hint
227- Fixed `claude agents` job rows showing full filesystem paths for pasted images instead of the `[Image #N]` placeholder
228- Fixed hooks with comma-separated matchers (e.g. `"Bash,PowerShell"`) silently never firing
229- Fixed `/permissions` Recently-denied tab: approving a denial now persists on close instead of being silently discarded
230- Fixed the agent panel jumping by one row when scrolling the roster past the overflow cap
231- Fixed the welcome splash art overflowing the default 80×24 macOS Terminal window
232- Fixed managed settings: `forceRemoteSettingsRefresh` now takes effect when set via MDM or file policy, and the fetch sends `Cache-Control: no-cache` to prevent proxies from serving stale responses
233- Improved sandbox network permission dialog: hosts you allow with "Yes" are now remembered for the rest of the session instead of re-prompting on every connection
234- Improved MCP server reliability: capability discovery (`tools/list`, `prompts/list`, `resources/list`) now retries transient network errors with short backoff
235- Improved MCP OAuth: discovery and token requests now retry once after transient network errors, and headless environments skip the browser popup and go straight to the paste-the-URL prompt
236- Improved MCP error messages: HTTP 404 errors now show the URL and point to your MCP config
237- Improved vim mode prompt-history search (NORMAL `/`) to hint how to reach slash commands
238- Reduced CPU usage during streaming responses by ~37% by coalescing text updates to 100ms
239- Reduced long-session memory growth from terminal output cache
240
241## 2.1.190
242
243- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
244
245## 2.1.187
246
247- Added `sandbox.credentials` setting to block sandboxed commands from reading credential files and secret environment variables
248- Added org-configured model restrictions to the model picker, `--model`, `/model`, and `ANTHROPIC_MODEL`, with a "restricted by your organization's settings" message when a restricted model is selected
249- Added mouse click support to select menus (permission prompts, `/model`, `/config`, etc.) in fullscreen mode
250- Fixed `--resume` failing with "No conversation found" when the original `-p` run produced no model turns
251- Fixed `--json-schema` and workflow `agent({schema})` structured output: the model can no longer re-call `StructuredOutput` indefinitely after a successful call, and follow-up turns now reliably return structured output
252- Fixed remote MCP tool calls that hang with no response for 5 minutes — they now abort with an error instead of blocking indefinitely (override with `CLAUDE_CODE_MCP_TOOL_IDLE_TIMEOUT`)
253- Fixed Claude Code Remote sessions taking ~2.7s longer to start after the agent proxy CA system-trust install was added
254- Fixed pasted Korean/CJK text turning into mojibake in terminals that deliver paste as per-byte extended-key events
255- Fixed `/update` over Remote Control hanging when a startup trust dialog would have shown
256- Fixed background jobs in the agents view getting stuck in "working" indefinitely when the agent ended a turn without producing structured output
257- Fixed channel connections dropping after navigating to the agents view and back, and after `/bg`, `/tui`, or `/update`
258- Fixed agent stop notifications not correctly attributing who stopped the agent, and improved wording ("finished"/"stopped" instead of "came to rest")
259- Fixed subagent depth tracking: resumed subagents now restore their original spawn depth, and forked subagents now count toward the depth cap
260- Fixed leaked agent worktree registrations: locked `.git/worktrees/` entries from killed agents are now cleaned up automatically
261- Fixed Cmd+click not opening URLs in fullscreen mode in Ghostty on macOS
262- Fixed `claude --help` not listing the `--bg`/`--background` flag
263- Fixed Esc, Ctrl-C, and Ctrl-D not working while `/share` is uploading
264- Improved `/install-github-app`: GitHub Actions workflow setup is now optional — you can install just the GitHub App and skip the workflow/secret steps
265- Improved `/btw` with ←/→ arrow navigation to step through earlier answers
266- Improved `/plugin` to surface plugins you haven't used recently so you can clean them up
267- [VSCode] Fixed extension becoming unresponsive when resuming a large session
268
269## 2.1.186
270
271- Added `claude mcp login <name>` and `claude mcp logout <name>` to authenticate MCP servers from the CLI without opening the interactive `/mcp` menu, with `--no-browser` stdin redirect support for completing over SSH
272- Added status filtering (press `f`) to the `/workflows` agent detail view
273- Added a "Skills" section to the `/plugin` Installed tab
274- Added `teammateMode: "iterm2"` setting with a warning when auto mode cannot find the `it2` CLI
275- Added "Claude Platform on AWS - refresh credentials" option to `/login` when `awsAuthRefresh` is configured
276- `!` bash commands now trigger Claude to respond to the output automatically; set `"respondToBashCommands": false` in settings.json to keep the previous context-only behavior
277- Fixed streaming requests failing with "Content block not found" or JSON parse errors after the machine wakes from sleep
278- Fixed subagent transcript scroll position bleeding into the main transcript on exit
279- Fixed background task previews flashing raw tool names before the agent's plan loaded
280- Fixed Chrome tab-group isolation not applying when the in-product permissions gate is off for concurrent CLI sessions
281- Fixed background session recaps being duplicated; the agent's own end-of-turn summary now shows as the recap line
282- Fixed opening a background session from `claude agents` leaving the previous screen painted behind it
283- Fixed `Agent(type)` deny rules and `Agent(x,y)` allowed-types restrictions not being enforced for named subagent spawns
284- Fixed Esc and Ctrl+C not responding while background agents are still running after the main turn ends
285- Fixed misaligned option numbers in permission prompts when the option text overflows
286- Fixed pressing `x` on a finished subagent in the agent panel not dismissing it
287- Fixed a misleading "MCP server disconnected" notice for intentionally retired tools when resuming older sessions
288- Fixed `/plugin` Installed showing a "more above" indicator when already scrolled to the top
289- Fixed `~~strikethrough~~` showing literal tildes in assistant messages instead of rendering as strikethrough
290- Fixed `--tools` allowing feature-gated tools to slip through before flags loaded on a cold first launch
291- Fixed background job status in `claude agents` showing a stale "needs input" message after replying
292- Fixed a dark-theme flash when opening a background session from `claude agents` on a light terminal
293- Fixed mouse-selected text staying highlighted after deleting it in `claude agents`
294- Fixed session cost not showing for usage-based Enterprise and Team subscribers
295- Fixed agent teams: teammates spawned via tmux/pane backends now inherit the leader's `--effort` level
296- Fixed Workflow `agent({schema})` subagents looping forever on repeated schema validation failures instead of aborting after 5 attempts
297- Improved `claude mcp get` and `claude mcp remove` to suggest the closest configured server name on a typo and truncate long server lists
298- Improved memory: the agent is now reminded to compact its `MEMORY.md` index when nearing the size limit
299- Improved skill frontmatter: `display-name`, `default-enabled`, `fallback`, and `metadata.*` keys now accept kebab-case, snake_case, and camelCase
300- Improved malformed `SKILL.md` YAML frontmatter handling: loads the skill body with empty metadata instead of failing silently
301- Changed `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_RETRIES` to cap at 15; for unattended sessions, use `CLAUDE_CODE_RETRY_WATCHDOG` instead
302- Changed background subagents to surface permission prompts in the main session instead of auto-denying; the dialog shows which agent is asking, and Esc denies just that tool
303- Changed `/review <pr>` to use the same review engine as `/code-review medium`
304
305## 2.1.185
306
307- The stream-stall hint now reads "Waiting for API response · will retry in …" instead of "No response from API · Retrying in …", and triggers after 20s of silence instead of 10s
308
309## 2.1.183
310
311- Improved auto mode safety: destructive git commands (`git reset --hard`, `git checkout -- .`, `git clean -fd`, `git stash drop`) are now blocked when you didn't ask to discard local work, `git commit --amend` is blocked when the commit wasn't made by the agent this session, and `terraform destroy`/`pulumi destroy`/`cdk destroy` are blocked unless you asked for the specific stack
312- Added a warning when the requested model is deprecated or automatically updated to a newer model, shown on stderr in print mode (`-p`) and now also covering models set in agent frontmatter
313- Added `attribution.sessionUrl` setting to omit the claude.ai session link from commits and PRs in web and Remote Control sessions
314- Added `/config --help` to list all available shorthand keys for `/config key=value`
315- Changed `/config` toggle behavior: Enter and Space both change the selected setting, and Esc now saves and closes instead of reverting
316- Removed the startup "setup issues" line under the logo — run `/doctor` to see configuration issues or use `--debug`
317- Fixed `thinking.disabled.display: Extra inputs are not permitted` 400 errors on subagent spawns and session-title generation for affected configurations
318- Fixed WebSearch returning empty results in subagents
319- Fixed the terminal cursor being stranded above the prompt after navigating history in vim mode with the native cursor enabled
320- Fixed fullscreen TUI corruption (statusline mid-screen, duplicated spinner rows, merged text) in Windows Terminal under heavy nested-subagent load
321- Fixed turns silently completing with no visible output when the model returned only a thinking block; Claude now re-prompts once
322- Fixed user-level skills appearing multiple times in slash-command autocomplete when multiple plugins are enabled
323- Fixed MCP servers requiring authentication exposing auth-stub tools to the model in headless/SDK mode
324- Fixed tmux teammate panes failing to launch when the shell has slow rc-file initialization, and keystrokes typed during agent spawn leaking into the new tmux pane instead of the leader prompt
325- Fixed background tasks started by a teammate being killed when the teammate finishes a turn
326- Fixed scheduled task and webhook trigger deliveries being treated as keyboard input; they now classify as task notifications and can no longer approve a pending action or set the session title in auto mode
327- Fixed focus mode showing "Ran N PostToolUse hooks" timing lines under each response
328
329## 2.1.181
330
331- Added `/config key=value` syntax to set any setting from the prompt (e.g. `/config thinking=false`) — works in interactive, `-p`, and Remote Control
332- Added `sandbox.allowAppleEvents` opt-in setting that lets sandboxed commands send Apple Events on macOS
333- Added `CLAUDE_CLIENT_PRESENCE_FILE` environment variable: point it at a marker file to suppress mobile push notifications while you're at the machine
334- Upgraded the bundled Bun runtime to 1.4
335- Improved streaming of long paragraphs: text now appears line-by-line instead of waiting for the first line break
336- Improved auto-retry: API connection drops mid-thinking now automatically retry instead of showing "Connection closed while thinking"
337- Improved the subagent panel: idle subagents auto-hide after 30s, the list caps at 5 rows with scroll hints, and keyboard hints now show in the footer
338- Improved the MCP OAuth browser page to match Claude Code's visual style and auto-close on success
339- Changed fullscreen mode URL opening to require Cmd+click (macOS) / Ctrl+click, matching native terminal behavior
340- Changed the `Improved N memories` line to no longer list individual files outside verbose mode
341- Fixed prompt caching not reading on custom `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` and on Foundry due to a per-request attestation token changing every turn
342- Fixed Write/Edit producing 0-byte or truncated files on network drives and cloud-synced folders
343- Fixed `open`, `osascript`, and browser-based auth flows failing with error -600 on macOS by adding the Apple Events entitlement
344- Fixed a startup regression (~120ms per launch in fresh environments, introduced in 2.1.169): the first prompt no longer waits for the managed-settings fetch when no MCP servers are configured
345- Fixed startup blocking with a blank terminal for up to 15 seconds when the account settings fetch is slow on a degraded network
346- Fixed startup crash (`TypeError: Cannot read properties of null`) when `.claude.json` contains corrupted null project entries
347- Fixed macOS TUI freezing at session start (Ctrl+C unresponsive) when Spotlight is busy reindexing
348- Fixed long-running idle sessions losing their history when another Claude Code process ran the 30-day transcript cleanup
349- Fixed foreground subagents spawning unbounded nested chains; they now respect the same 5-level depth limit as background subagents
350- Fixed `/recap` and conversation forks using the previous model immediately after a model switch
351- Fixed subagent "Thinking" duration showing the parent agent's elapsed time instead of the subagent's own
352- Fixed subagents blocked on a nested agent showing a ticking elapsed time instead of "waiting" in the agent panel
353- Fixed the API retry indicator ("Retrying in 0s · attempt N/10") staying on screen after the retry succeeded
354- Fixed AWS `awsCredentialExport` credentials with a short remaining lifetime causing credential refreshes every minute, and now accepts the JSON shape from `aws configure export-credentials`
355- Fixed `claude mcp get`/`list` showing `✓ Connected` when tools/list fails; they now show `! Connected · tools fetch failed` with the error detail
356- Fixed `/remote-control` leaving a stale "connecting…" line; it now confirms in the transcript once connected
357- Fixed ExitWorktree refusing to remove a clean worktree with "Could not verify worktree state" when bare `git` cannot be resolved on Windows
358- Fixed settings changes (such as `/effort` or `/model`) failing with ENOENT when `~/.claude/settings.json` is a relative symlink under a symlinked `~/.claude`
359- Fixed IDE selection line numbers in context reminders being off by one (IntelliJ and VS Code)
360- Fixed Ctrl+C in fullscreen after a native terminal selection (modifier+drag) overwriting the clipboard with the app's prior selection
361- Fixed Ctrl+V showing "No image found in clipboard" instead of pasting when the clipboard contains text
362- Fixed agent creation failing with "EEXIST: file already exists" when the agents directory already exists (Windows/OneDrive)
363- Fixed AskUserQuestion preview content being cut off at the dialog edge instead of word-wrapping
364- Fixed AskUserQuestion multi-select questions silently dropping a typed "Other" free-text answer when submitting
365- Fixed `/stats` "Most active day" and daily token chart dates showing one day early in UTC-negative timezones
366- Fixed `/copy` and copy-on-select on Linux not detecting a clipboard utility installed after Claude Code started
367- Fixed tab-indented code rendering with incorrect indentation in the Write (create-file) preview
368- Fixed user prompts queued mid-turn not showing a full-width background highlight in the transcript
369- Fixed the activity spinner's pulse dwelling on the wrong glyph size in Ghostty
370
371## 2.1.179
372
373- Fixed mid-stream connection drops: partial responses are now preserved instead of showing a raw error, and the spinner no longer gets stuck at "running tool"
374- Fixed mouse-wheel scrolling in WSL2 under Windows Terminal and VS Code (regression in 2.1.172)
375- Fixed a sandbox `denyRead`/`allowRead` glob over a large directory tree making the Bash tool description enormous and the session unusable on Linux
376- Fixed the feedback survey capturing a single-digit reply as a session rating immediately after a turn completes
377- Fixed the welcome screen stacking multiple promotional banners — at most one promo now shows per session
378- Fixed Ctrl+O not showing the subagent's transcript when viewing a subagent
379- Fixed clicking the prompt input not returning focus from the subagent/footer panel
380- Fixed remote session background tasks appearing stuck as "still running" between turns
381- Improved plugin loading performance in remote sessions
382
383## 2.1.178
384
385- Agent teams: removed the `TeamCreate` and `TeamDelete` tools. With `CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1` set, every session now has one implicit team — spawn teammates directly with the Agent tool's `name` parameter, no setup step needed. The `team_name` parameter on the Agent tool is still accepted but ignored.
386- Added `Tool(param:value)` syntax for permission rules to match a tool's input parameters (with `*` wildcard), e.g. `Agent(model:opus)` to block Opus subagents
387- Skills in nested `.claude/skills` directories now load when working on files there; on a name clash, the nested skill appears as `<dir>:<name>` so both stay available
388- Nested `.claude/` directories: the agent, workflow, and output-style closest to the working directory now wins when names collide; project-scope workflow saves now target the closest existing `.claude/workflows/`
389- Improved auto mode: subagent spawns are now evaluated by the classifier before launch, closing a gap where a subagent could request a blocked action without review
390- Improved `/doctor` with consistent flat tree layout across all sections, clearer section status icons, and highlighted command names
391- Improved the skill listing truncation warning to show how many skill descriptions are affected
392- Changed the workflow prompt keyword to use a purple shimmer highlight and trigger only on explicit phrases like "run a workflow" or "workflow:", not on any mention of the word
393- Improved Remote Control error messages: connection failures now show a persistent red "/rc failed" indicator in the footer, and the "not yet enabled" error now explains whether it's a gate, a check failure, stale entitlement, or org policy
394- `/bug` now requires a description before submitting, and no longer uses model-refusal text as the GitHub issue title
395- Fixed a crash (out-of-memory) when the CLI inherits a stale websocket/OAuth file-descriptor environment variable from a parent process
396- Fixed Claude in Chrome silently failing to connect when the OAuth token belongs to a different account than the Claude Code login
397- Fixed nested `.claude/skills` skills with directory-qualified names being blocked by permission prompts in non-interactive runs
398- Fixed several subagent issues: viewing a subagent's transcript now shows tool results and live progress, messages sent while it finishes its turn are no longer dropped, and backgrounding a running subagent (ctrl+b) no longer restarts it from scratch
399- Fixed `claude agents` workers failing with `401 Invalid bearer token` when the daemon was started from a shell with a custom API gateway via `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` and `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN`
400- Fixed compaction not honoring `--fallback-model`: compaction now falls back to the configured fallback model chain on overload or model-availability errors
401- Fixed model requests continuing to fail with auth errors after credentials were refreshed outside the session, due to a stale cached request configuration
402- Fixed background sessions created with `/bg` or `←←` after a turn finished showing "Working" forever in the agents list
403- Fixed Linux sandbox failing to start when `.claude/skills` or `.claude/hooks` is a symlink
404- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_KEEP_MARKETPLACE_ON_FAILURE=1` preventing fresh marketplace installs from cloning
405- Fixed MCP server-level specs (`mcp__server`, `mcp__server__*`, `mcp__*`) in subagent `disallowedTools` being silently ignored
406- Fixed vim mode undo: `u` now steps through NORMAL/VISUAL-mode commands one at a time instead of merging commands in quick succession into a single undo step
407- Fixed statusline links with custom URI schemes (e.g. `vscode://`) not opening when clicked in `claude agents`
408- [VSCode] Fixed pressing Esc to dismiss a CJK IME candidate window canceling the running Claude task
409
410## 2.1.176
411
412- Session titles are now generated in the language of your conversation (set the `language` setting to pin a specific language)
413- Added `footerLinksRegexes` setting for regex-matched link badges in the footer row, configurable via user or managed settings
414- Improved Bedrock credential caching: credentials from `awsCredentialExport` are now cached until their `Expiration` instead of a fixed 1 hour
415- Fixed `availableModels` enforcement: alias model picks can no longer be redirected to a blocked model via `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_*_MODEL` environment variables, and `/fast` now refuses to toggle when it would switch to a model outside the allowlist
416- Fixed auto mode failing on Fable 5 for organizations without Opus 4.8 enabled — the classifier now falls back to the best available Opus model
417- Fixed hook `if` conditions for Read/Edit/Write tool paths: documented patterns like `Edit(src/**)`, `Read(~/.ssh/**)`, and `Read(.env)` now match correctly
418- Fixed Linux sandbox failing to start when `.claude/settings.json` is a symlink with an absolute target
419- Fixed `/copy` and mouse-selection copy not reaching the system clipboard inside tmux over SSH, and tmux paste buffer not loading on versions older than 3.2
420- Fixed Remote Control connecting from web/mobile silently switching the session's model
421- Fixed Remote Control disconnect notifications showing a bare numeric code instead of a human-readable reason, and connection failures adding a duplicate line to the conversation transcript
422- Fixed Remote Control sessions not disconnecting when you sign in to a different account
423- Fixed `/cd` and worktree moves leaving the session reporting the previous directory's git branch
424- Fixed `claude agents`: pressing back in one window no longer detaches other windows attached to the same session
425- Fixed backgrounded sessions showing "Working" forever when `/bg` mid-turn had nothing left to continue
426- Fixed background agent search by PR URL: PRs opened during scheduled wakeups or while a job was blocked now appear in `claude agents` search
427- Fixed the agents view input showing no text cursor on Windows
428- Fixed `claude --bg -cn <name>` not seeding the session name
429- Fixed background sessions to neutralize Windows network paths in persisted state before respawn
430- Fixed background-session respawn rejecting malformed resume IDs from corrupted state files
431- Fixed the Windows background-service daemon not starting when `~/.claude/daemon` has the ReadOnly attribute set
432- Fixed cloud sessions failing with "Could not resolve authentication method" when idle for too long before being claimed
433- Background sessions now show clearer guidance when a window left open across an auto-update can't submit a reply, and `claude daemon status` explains version-skew behavior
434
435## 2.1.175
436
437- Added `enforceAvailableModels` managed setting — when enabled, the `availableModels` allowlist also constrains the Default model (a Default that would resolve to a disallowed model now falls back to the first allowed model), and user or project settings can no longer widen a managed `availableModels` list
438
439## 2.1.174
440
441- Added `wheelScrollAccelerationEnabled` setting to disable mouse-wheel scroll acceleration in fullscreen mode
442- Fixed the `/model` picker hiding the model family that Default resolves to — Opus now appears as its own row on Max/Team Premium/Enterprise plans, Sonnet on Pro/Team plans, and Opus on pay-as-you-go API accounts
443- Fixed `/model` picker showing a hardcoded Sonnet version label when `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL` pins a different Sonnet
444- Fixed the "Fable 5 is now consuming usage credits" banner incorrectly showing for enterprise accounts with usage-based billing
445- Fixed Bedrock GovCloud regions (`us-gov-*`) deriving the wrong inference profile prefix (`global` instead of `us-gov`), causing 400 errors on derived model IDs
446- Fixed background sessions inheriting another session's `ANTHROPIC_*` provider env (gateway URL, custom headers, `/model` aliases) from the shell that started the background daemon
447- Fixed a 1-2 second pause when exiting Claude Code shortly after a shell command was interrupted or killed on macOS and Linux
448- Fixed git commit co-author attribution showing an incorrect model name for some models
449- Fixed the `/advisor` dialog pre-selecting a saved advisor model that is blocked by the `availableModels` allowlist
450- Fixed skill hot-reload re-sending the entire skill listing when a single skill changed; only changed skills are now re-announced
451- Fixed Workflow tool `agent()` subagents missing per-agent attribution headers
452- [VSCode] Added usage attribution to the Account & usage dialog (`/usage`) showing cache misses, long context, subagents, and per-skill/agent/plugin/MCP breakdowns over the last 24h or 7d
453- Fixed pre-warmed background workers failing with "Could not resolve authentication method" when claimed after sitting idle
454
455## 2.1.173
456
457- 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
458- Fixed a spurious "sandbox dependencies missing" startup warning on Windows when sandbox was enabled in settings
459
460## 2.1.172
461
462- Sub-agents can now spawn their own sub-agents (up to 5 levels deep)
463- 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
464- Added a search bar when browsing a marketplace's plugins in `/plugin`
465- Added `model` attribute to the `claude_code.lines_of_code.count` OTEL metric
466- Fixed sessions using 1M context without usage credits getting permanently stuck — the session now automatically compacts back under the standard context limit
467- Fixed a repeating "an image in the conversation could not be processed and was removed" error when the conversation contained multiple images
468- Fixed the agents view keeping a session under Working with a busy spinner for up to 30 seconds after the worker replied
469- Fixed background agents potentially reading another directory's project settings (`.mcp.json` approvals, trust) when dispatched onto a pre-warmed worker
470- Fixed background-session attach failing with EAUTH for sessions started on an older version after the daemon auto-updated
471- Fixed a background sub-agent staying stuck as "active" in the agent panel after a nested agent it spawned was stopped
472- Fixed `/model` suggestions in the `claude agents` dispatch input rendering with a misleading slash prefix and showing models disabled for your org
473- Fixed `availableModels` restrictions not being applied to subagent model overrides, the agent dispatch model picker, and the advisor model
474- Fixed `availableModels` allowlists hiding the `/model` picker's Opus and Sonnet 1M rows when entries use version-specific IDs like `claude-opus-4-8`
475- 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
476- Fixed model IDs getting a doubled 1M-context suffix (e.g. `[1M][1m]`) when `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL` already includes one
477- 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
478- 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
479- Fixed up-arrow prompt history showing the main agent's prompts while a subagent's chat tab is open
480- Fixed memory recall not finding mounted team memory stores (`CLAUDE_MEMORY_STORES`) in remote sessions
481- Fixed workflow validation rejecting scripts whose prompt strings or comments merely mention `Date.now()`/`Math.random()`
482- Disable mouse tracking on Windows consoles that don't fully support it
483- 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
484- Improved performance in long conversations by removing redundant message normalization and avoiding full message-history transforms when streaming tool-use state is unchanged
485- 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
486- Improved Claude in Chrome tool loading: browser tools now load in a single batched call instead of one per tool
487- Improved the non-interactive Usage Policy refusal message to suggest starting a new session or changing your model
488- `/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
489- Shortened the Remote Control footer indicator to "/rc active" and hid it on narrow terminals
490- Stopped promoting `/loop` in remote sessions, where pending loops don't keep the container alive
491- [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
492
493## 2.1.170
494
495- 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
496- 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.
497
498## 2.1.169
499
500- 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)
501- 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
502- Added `/cd` command to move a session to a new working directory without breaking the prompt cache mid-session
503- 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
504- 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
505- 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
506- Fixed a ~30-50ms UI stall at the start of each turn for macOS users logged in with claude.ai credentials
507- Fixed `claude -p` being slow or appearing to hang on Windows while waiting for the slash-command/skill scan (regression in 2.1.161)
508- Fixed Remote Control getting stuck on "reconnecting" after resuming a session when an OAuth token refresh happened at the same time
509- Fixed Git Credential Manager's "Connect to GitHub" popup appearing on Windows at startup when background git commands ran without cached credentials
510- Fixed footer hints (e.g. "esc to interrupt") not showing for users with a custom statusline
511- Fixed stale permission and dialog prompts reappearing every time you reattached to a remote session whose worker had died while waiting on them
512- Fixed `claude agents --json` omitting blocked and just-dispatched background sessions; added `--all` to include completed sessions, plus new `id` and `state` fields
513- Fixed agents view leaving a stale/garbled frame after navigating back from an agent on WSL in Windows Terminal
514- Fixed background agents ignoring project-level settings `env` values (e.g. `ANTHROPIC_MODEL`) when dispatched onto a pre-warmed worker
515- Fixed MCPB plugin cache being spuriously invalidated on Windows, causing unnecessary re-extraction
516- Fixed plugin `.in_use` PID lock files accumulating without bound; stale markers from crashed sessions are now swept once per day
517- Fixed untrusted project settings being able to set OTEL client-certificate paths without trust confirmation
518- `/workflows` now opens immediately even while a turn is in progress
519- Improved `TaskCreate` reliability: malformed inputs are repaired automatically and validation errors for unloaded tools include the schema
520- Improved the error message shown when your organization has disabled API key authentication, with guidance based on where the active API key comes from
521- Reduced CPU usage while responses stream and during spinner animations
522- 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
523- 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
524- Background sessions now preserve `--ide`, `--chrome`, `--bare`, `--remote-control`, and other flags across retire→wake, and respawn state validation was hardened
525- Background sessions are now told that shared-checkout edits are blocked until they enter a worktree, avoiding a wasted rejected edit before `EnterWorktree`
526- The "CLAUDE.md is too long" warning threshold now scales with the model's context window
527- Auto-updater on Windows now stops retrying within a session once `claude.exe` is held by another process
528- Improved color contrast for skill tags in the slash-command menu
529- Promo credit claims for Apple/Google-billed subscribers without a payment method now explain where to add one
530- Added a tip suggesting `claude agents` when running multiple concurrent sessions
531
532## 2.1.168
533
534- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
535
536## 2.1.167
537
538- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
539
540## 2.1.166
541
542- 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
543- 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
544- 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
545- `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)
546- 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
547- `claude update` now announces the target version before downloading instead of going silent
548- `claude agents`: typing a URL into the list now filters to the session whose first prompt contained it
549- Fixed a recurring "image could not be processed" error and extra token usage when an unprocessable image was sent in a session
550- Fixed remote sessions becoming permanently stuck when a brief backend disruption occurred during worker registration at startup
551- Fixed flickering in JetBrains IDE terminals (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc.) on 2026.1+ by enabling synchronized output
552- Fixed Shift+non-ASCII characters (e.g. Shift+ä → Ä) being dropped in terminals using the Kitty keyboard protocol (WezTerm, Ghostty, kitty)
553- Fixed PowerShell command validation occasionally hanging far past its time budget on Windows when a killed process's children held its output pipes
554- Fixed orphaned `claude --bg-pty-host` processes spinning at 100% CPU after the daemon dies while connected on macOS
555- Fixed voice mode requiring `/login` to clear a stale auth check after toggling `/voice`
556- Fixed managed settings with an invalid entry silently disabling enforcement of their remaining valid policies
557- Fixed managed-settings `allowedMcpServers`/`deniedMcpServers` predicates not matching when they use `${VAR}` references
558- Fixed background agent sessions that entered a git worktree crash-looping with "No conversation found" when reopened from `claude agents`
559- Fixed duplicated thinking text in the Ctrl+O transcript view while streaming
560- Fixed `/doctor` showing a contradictory failed "Not inside a remote session" check when run inside a remote session
561- Fixed the cursor sticking at the end of the first line when typing a multiline prompt in the `claude agents` dispatch and reply inputs
562- Fixed blank lines appearing between background agent rows in the task list on terminals without Unicode support
563
564## 2.1.165
565
566- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
567
568## 2.1.163
569
570- 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
571- Added `/plugin list` command to list installed plugins, with `--enabled`/`--disabled` filters
572- Added a "c to copy" shortcut to `/btw` that copies the raw markdown answer to the clipboard, preserving formatting when pasted elsewhere
573- 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
574- Skills: added `\$` escape syntax to include a literal `$` before a digit in command bodies
575- stdio MCP servers now receive the same `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` as hooks/Bash on `--resume`
576- Fixed `claude -p` hanging forever after its final result when a backgrounded command never exits — background shells are now stopped ~5s after the result once stdin closes
577- Fixed `claude -p` failing with "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY required" on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry when `CI=true` and no Anthropic API key is set
578- Fixed bash commands failing under bazel and EDR-protected Go workflows: `$TMPDIR` was overridden to `/tmp/claude-{uid}` for all commands instead of only sandboxed ones (regression in 2.1.154)
579- 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
580- Fixed org-managed permission rules not applying for the entire session when the managed settings fetch completed during startup on a fresh config directory
581- Fixed background sessions in `claude agents` losing their running background tasks when reattached after a Claude Code update
582- Fixed terminal misalignment and a multi-second hang when exiting the agent view by pressing Esc
583- Fixed clicking Stop on a background-task chip in the desktop app not clearing the chip when the underlying process was already gone
584- Fixed keyboard input becoming permanently unresponsive after a paste operation whose end marker is dropped by the terminal
585- Fixed hook `if: "Bash(...)"` conditions firing on every Bash command containing `$()` or `$VAR`; the pattern now matches against commands inside subshells and backticks too
586- Fixed deny rules on home-directory paths (e.g. `Read(~/Desktop/**)`) not blocking Bash commands that reference the path via `$HOME`
587- Fixed a stray "(no content)" line left in the transcript after closing panel dialogs like /mcp and /plugins
588- 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
589- Clearer descriptions for built-in commands and skills in the / menu
590- The subscription-switch suggestion now shows in the startup announcement slot instead of a toast
591- `claude agents` dispatching from the state-grouped view now starts the session in the directory the agent view was opened from
592
593## 2.1.162
594
595- `claude agents --json` now includes `waitingFor` showing what a waiting session is blocked on (e.g. permission prompt)
596- `--tools`: explicitly listing Grep/Glob now provides the dedicated search tools on native builds with embedded search (previously these names were silently ignored)
597- `/effort` now confirms when your chosen level will persist as the default for new sessions
598- Clicking a slash command in the autocomplete menu now fills it into your prompt instead of running it immediately; press Enter to run
599- Remote Control now shows as a persistent footer pill (with a link to the session) instead of a startup message
600- Renamed Windsurf to Devin Desktop in the `/ide` menu, `/terminal-setup`, and `/scroll-speed`, following the editor's rebrand
601- 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
602- 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
603- 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
604- 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
605- Fixed API 400 `no low surrogate in string` errors for classifier side-queries and MCP server descriptions containing emoji near a truncation boundary
606- 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
607- Fixed the LSP tool's `workspaceSymbol` operation returning no results; it now accepts a `query` parameter and passes it to the language server
608- 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
609- Fixed `claude agents` truncating long session names at 40 columns; the name column now grows with terminal width
610- Fixed `claude agents` attach occasionally bouncing straight back to the session list on the first try after a background-service restart
611- 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
612- 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
613- Fixed replies from the agents view that fail to send being lost; they are now queued for delivery on the next session start
614- Fixed cross-session messaging (`SendMessage`) silently breaking when `CLAUDE_CODE_TMPDIR` or `$TMPDIR` points at a deep directory
615- Fixed opening a running background session from `claude agents` stalling for 5 seconds before attaching
616- Quieter startup: notices group by severity, and session info and announcements share a single line per launch
617- Startup warnings rewritten to be shorter and clearer, each with a concrete fix
618- Launch-prompt warnings (deep link/pre-filled prompt) now stay pinned below the input until you act instead of scrolling away
619- Failed turns now show a compact warning line instead of a multi-line red error block
620- Improved background service startup and `claude update` verification to wait out endpoint-security scanning of new binaries instead of failing after 5 seconds
621- Background dispatch spawn failures now report the error class name when no errno is available
622- 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
623
624## 2.1.161
625
626- `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
627- `claude agents` rows now show `done/total` before the detail when work is fanned out; peek shows the longest-running item
628- `/mcp` now collapses claude.ai connectors you've never signed in to behind a "Show unused connectors" row
629- Parallel tool calls: a failed Bash command no longer cancels other calls in the same batch — each tool returns its own result independently
630- 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
631- Fixed the `/effort` dialog, workflow animations, and prompt keyword shimmer not honoring the "Reduce motion" setting
632- Fixed `forceLoginOrgUUID`/`forceLoginMethod` managed-settings policies blocking third-party provider sessions (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, Mantle) alongside the org pin (regression in 2.1.146)
633- Fixed background subagent output corrupting `claude -p` stdout when using `--output-format text` or `json`
634- Fixed `/usage-credits` starting a re-login for Team and Enterprise admins instead of pointing to the organization's usage settings page
635- Fixed `/autofix-pr` reporting "cannot run on the default branch" when the session is inside a git worktree or another repository
636- Fixed `--resume` picker not showing sessions from the current directory when it isn't a git worktree (e.g., jj workspaces)
637- Fixed Windows hooks that invoke bash explicitly (e.g., `/usr/bin/bash script.sh`) failing with "command not found" or "cannot execute binary file"
638- Fixed OpenTelemetry log events (`user_prompt`, `api_request`, `tool_result`, `tool_decision`) being silently dropped when emitted before telemetry initialization completed
639- Fixed `claude mcp` list/get/add printing secrets to the terminal: `${VAR}` references are no longer expanded, and credential headers and URL secrets are redacted
640- Fixed Workflow agents spawned with `isolation: "worktree"` in background sessions being blocked from editing files inside their own worktree
641- Fixed background sessions dispatched from `claude agents` booting on a stale model from the daemon's environment instead of the model in `settings.json`
642- Fixed a potential crash when rendering Write tool results after resuming a session
643- Fixed completed subagents getting stuck showing as running when an error occurs while finalizing their result
644- Fixed `EADDRINUSE` errors from tools that bind Unix sockets under `$TMPDIR` when `CLAUDE_CODE_TMPDIR` is set to a deep path
645- Improved terminal rendering performance by stabilizing the layout engine's JIT compilation profile
646- Improved rendering performance for large file writes
647- [VSCode] Added a tip suggesting disabling terminal GPU acceleration (or running `/terminal-setup`) to fix garbled glyphs
648
649## 2.1.160
650
651- Added a prompt before writing to shell startup files (`.zshenv`, `.zlogin`, `.bash_login`) and `~/.config/git/`, which could otherwise lead to unintended command execution
652- `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.)
653- 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
654- 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
655- Fixed restoring a completed session from `claude agents` dropping chat history and re-running the original prompt
656- Fixed background sessions re-attached after overnight retire losing their conversation and re-running the original prompt
657- Fixed `claude --bg` occasionally failing with "socket missing" when the background daemon was cold-starting on a loaded machine
658- 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
659- Fixed background agents that resumed work being shown under Completed in the agents list
660- Fixed `claude agents` freezing for several seconds when returning to the session list due to the auto-updater re-checking on every exit
661- 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
662- 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
663- Fixed mouse wheel scrolling prompt history instead of the transcript right after opening a session from the agents list
664- Fixed CJK IME composition appearing at the bottom-left of the screen instead of at the input caret in the `claude agents` view
665- Fixed valid `file:///C:/...` links being rewritten to a broken path on Windows terminals with hyperlink support
666- Fixed voice mode failing to connect when the project directory or branch name contains non-ASCII or special characters
667- 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
668- 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
669- Fixed model-not-found errors suggesting `--model` when running via the SDK or other hosts where the CLI flag doesn't apply
670- Fixed Claude's past replies disappearing from scrollback when resuming a brief mode session with brief mode turned off
671- Fixed vim mode `p` pasting on the line below instead of at the cursor when the register was yanked with `v$`
672- Improved performance of opening recently-inactive background agent sessions in `claude agents`
673- Improved auto mode classifier latency by reducing reasoning on routine actions, lowering the chance of "could not evaluate this action" blocks
674- Improved background-session teardown (`claude rm`/`stop`, idle reap) to send SIGTERM to running shell subprocesses before SIGKILL, so cleanup handlers run
675- Removed `CLAUDE_CODE_OPUS_4_6_FAST_MODE_OVERRIDE`; the environment variable is now a no-op
676- Removed the JetBrains plugin install suggestion from startup
677- 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
678
679## 2.1.159
680
681- Internal infrastructure improvements (no user-facing changes)
682
683## 2.1.158
684
685- 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`
686
687## 2.1.157
688
689- Plugins in `.claude/skills` directories are now automatically loaded, no marketplace required
690- Added `claude plugin init <name>` to scaffold a new plugin in `.claude/skills`
691- Added autocomplete for `/plugin` arguments: subcommands, installed plugin names, and plugins from known marketplaces
692- `claude agents`: the `agent` field in `settings.json` is now honored for dispatched sessions, with `--agent <name>` to override it
693- `EnterWorktree` can now switch between Claude-managed worktrees mid-session
694- `tool_decision` telemetry events now include `tool_parameters` (bash commands, MCP/skill names) when `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1`
695- Worktrees managed by Claude are now left unlocked when the agent finishes, so `git worktree remove`/`prune` can clean them up
696- Fixed unprocessable images (zero-byte, corrupt) attached via paste, MCP, or dialog crashing the request instead of becoming a text placeholder
697- Fixed sandbox network permission prompts appearing in auto and bypass-permissions mode when using the desktop app, IDE extensions, or SDK
698- Fixed `claude agents` completed sessions not retiring when an idle subagent was still parked or had leaked a backgrounded shell
699- Fixed `claude agents` pressing Esc not cancelling a slow "opening…", leaving the list unresponsive
700- Fixed background agent worktrees under `.claude/worktrees/` being orphaned after the 30-day job retention sweep
701- Fixed background sessions re-attached after a sleep/wake not telling the model the correct date
702- Fixed copy-on-select in `claude agents` not reaching the system clipboard inside tmux with `set-clipboard on` (regression in 2.1.153)
703- Fixed `--resume` not reporting background subagents that were running when the previous Claude Code process exited
704- Fixed the `--resume` session picker leaving its contents on the terminal after exiting in fullscreen mode
705- Fixed `--worktree` and `--worktree --tmux` returning to the canonical repo root instead of the current linked worktree
706- 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
707- Fixed literal markdown markers (backticks, asterisks) appearing in the in-progress message text in fullscreen mode
708- Fixed the terminal freezing after approving the managed-settings security dialog at startup
709- Fixed a rare duplicate line appearing in scrollback after the terminal UI redraws
710- Fixed right-click paste duplicating the clipboard in the VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf integrated terminals
711- WSL: fixed image paste (`alt+v` keybinding), screenshot paste on Windows 11, and added support for dragging images from Windows Explorer
712- Improved performance of long and resumed conversations by eliminating redundant message-rendering recomputations
713- `/terminal-setup` now disables GPU acceleration in VS Code/Cursor/Windsurf integrated terminals to prevent garbled-text rendering
714- The Feature of the Week credit-claim status now appears as a notification in the status area instead of a line above the prompt
715- `claude agents`: slash-command autocomplete in the dispatch input now matches substrings
716- Removed the "bash commands will be sandboxed" startup banner — sandbox status still shows in `/status` and when a command is blocked
717- Removed the "/ide for …" startup hint toast
718- [IDE] Fixed clicking Stop while a background subagent is running not actually stopping it
719- [VSCode] Fixed the fast mode indicator not appearing on Opus 4.8
720- Pressing backspace right after a workflow trigger keyword now dismisses the workflow request (same as alt+w) instead of deleting a character
721- Added a "Workflow keyword trigger" setting in /config to stop the word "workflow" in a prompt from triggering a dynamic workflow
722
723## 2.1.156
724
725- Fixed an issue when using Opus 4.8 where thinking blocks were modified, leading to API errors.
726
727## 2.1.154
728
729- Opus 4.8 is here! Now defaults to high effort · /effort xhigh for your hardest tasks
730- 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
731- 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
732- The lean system prompt is now the default for all models except Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus 4.7 and earlier
733- 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
734- `/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
735- Renamed the `/effort` slider labels from "Speed"/"Intelligence" to "Faster"/"Smarter" for clarity
736- `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>'`
737- `claude agents`: `/logout` now signs you out instead of being sent to a background session
738- `←←` to open the agents view now works on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, and with telemetry disabled
739- Claude in Chrome: pick which connected browser to use via `/chrome` → "Select browser…", or in-chat when a browser action runs with multiple connected
740- 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
741- The `/plugin` Discover tab now pins plugins whose relevance signals match the current directory with a "suggested for this directory" annotation
742- Streaming tool execution is now always enabled, including when telemetry is disabled or on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry (previously behind a feature flag)
743- Stdio MCP server subprocesses now receive `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` and `CLAUDECODE=1` in their environment
744- `claude mcp list`/`get` now show unapproved `.mcp.json` servers as `⏸ Pending approval` instead of auto-approving and connecting when output is piped
745- `/remote-control` autocomplete now shows "Disconnect Remote Control" when Remote Control is already active
746- Added Claude Opus 4.8 support and 4.7 → 4.8 migration guidance to the `/claude-api` skill
747- 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`
748- Improved the auto-mode classifier's detection of data exfiltration, particularly bulk transfers of repository contents
749- Fixed `rm -rf $HOME` not being blocked as a dangerous path when `HOME` has a trailing slash
750- Fixed `$TMPDIR` resolving to different directories in sandboxed vs unsandboxed Bash commands within the same session
751- Fixed unreadable highlighted-row text in `claude agents` when the Claude Code theme doesn't match the terminal background
752- Fixed background-agent completion notifications triggering premature "out of context" behavior on some 1M-context models
753- Fixed background-session classifier losing the user's goal when a scheduled `/command` fires
754- Fixed pinned background sessions respawning every minute after a Claude Code update, causing repeated agent-start notifications and process churn at idle
755- Fixed background sessions stuck at "blocked", "running", or "working" not retiring after the idle grace period
756- Fixed subagents in background sessions bypassing the worktree-isolation guard and writing to the shared checkout
757- Fixed orphaned `claude --bg-pty-host` processes spinning at 100% CPU after the daemon exits on macOS
758- Fixed number key shortcuts not working for options shown below the divider in option dialogs
759- 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
760- Fixed a stray leading space on wrapped lines when the previous line ended exactly at the terminal width
761- Fixed intermittent terminal rendering corruption in VS Code by capping the number of distinct colors the thinking spinner produces
762- Fixed plan file names including `[Image #N]` / `[Pasted text #N]` placeholders when a plan-mode prompt starts with pasted images or text
763- 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
764- 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
765- Fixed API 400 errors on models that don't support the effort parameter when `CLAUDE_CODE_ALWAYS_ENABLE_EFFORT` is set
766- 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
767- Removed the stale "& for background" hint from the shortcuts help panel
768- [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
769- Fixed the task panel below the prompt showing a stray unselectable "main" row when only a workflow is running
770- Fixed /mcp tools list and tool detail rendering when MCP servers have long or multi-line tool names or long descriptions
771- 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
772- Fixed auto mode incorrectly blocking actions with "could not evaluate this action" when the safety classifier ran out of output tokens while reasoning
773
774## 2.1.153
775
776- Added `skipLfs` option to `github`/`git` plugin marketplace sources to skip Git LFS downloads during clone and update
777- Claude Code now shows a one-time notice when your npm global install can't auto-update; `/doctor` lists the fixes
778- Status line commands now receive `COLUMNS` and `LINES` environment variables so scripts can size output to the terminal width
779- `claude agents`: autocomplete in the dispatch input now suggests native slash commands and bundled skills, not just project skills
780- `claude agents`: PR column now shows `PR #N` for a single PR or `N PRs` for multiple
781- `claude doctor` now shows the result of your last update attempt
782- Combined the separate "needs authentication" startup notifications for MCP servers and connectors into a single message
783- macOS: background agents now appear as "Claude Code" in Privacy & Security and keep their permission grants across upgrades
784- Fixed stateful MCP servers without the optional GET SSE stream reconnect-looping on `tools/list` (regression in v2.1.147)
785- Fixed a regression where a custom API gateway could receive the user's Anthropic OAuth credential instead of the gateway's own token
786- 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
787- `--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
788- Fixed the Windows PowerShell installer reporting "Installation complete!" when installation actually failed
789- Fixed `claude update` installing the latest version instead of the configured release channel's version for npm installations
790- Fixed excessive memory usage (multiple GB) when resuming a session by transcript file path on machines with many stored sessions
791- Fixed `claude agents` and `claude --bg` running on a stale daemon started before binary-takeover support, even after upgrading
792- 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
793- Fixed malformed `file://` links in Claude's responses not being clickable in the terminal
794- Fixed `claude --help` rendering unwrapped output on terminals narrower than 92 columns
795- Fixed MCP tool progress notifications not rendering in the collapsed tool view
796- Fixed `Agent` tool with `subagent_type: 'claude'` running in an undocumented temporary worktree, which could silently discard outputs written to gitignored paths
797- `/bg` while Claude is responding now continues the response in the background session instead of dropping it
798- Fixed `/btw` keyboard shortcuts becoming unresponsive in background sessions while a task is running
799- Fixed background sessions writing temp files to `$CLAUDE_JOB_DIR` triggering a "sensitive file" permission prompt
800- Fixed recovering a background agent whose working directory was deleted showing a truncated stack trace instead of a clear error message
801- Fixed `EnterWorktree` not being available immediately in background sessions (previously required `ToolSearch` first)
802- Fixed `cmd+k` in iTerm2/Terminal.app not repainting attached background sessions
803- 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
804- Fixed background-color bleed when attaching to a background agent from 256-color-only terminals after the agent had rendered file diffs
805- Fixed `/copy` and copy-on-select silently failing to update the system clipboard when attached to a background session inside tmux
806- Fixed opening `claude agents` with Remote Control enabled leaving zombie session entries on the Code tab after exiting
807- Fixed `/rename` in background sessions not updating the session banner immediately
808- Fixed Windows update rollback: if a Windows update fails, Claude Code now restores the original executable by copy and tells you how to recover
809- [VSCode] Fixed Claude Code processes not shutting down cleanly when VS Code closed on Windows, causing false "unclean exit" reports and orphaned MCP servers
810- `/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.
811- If you customized the `modelPicker:setAsDefault` keybinding, rename it to `modelPicker:thisSessionOnly` in keybindings.json (the `d` action was replaced by `s`)
812
813## 2.1.152
814
815- `/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`
816- Skills and slash commands can now set `disallowed-tools` in frontmatter to remove tools from the model while the skill is active
817- Added `/reload-skills` command to re-scan skill directories without restarting the session
818- `SessionStart` hooks can now return `reloadSkills: true` to re-scan skill directories, making skills installed by the hook available in the same session
819- `SessionStart` hooks can now set the session title via `hookSpecificOutput.sessionTitle` on startup and resume
820- Added a `MessageDisplay` hook event that lets hooks transform or hide assistant message text as it is displayed
821- Added `pluginSuggestionMarketplaces` managed setting: admins can allowlist org marketplaces whose plugins may be suggested via context-aware tips
822- `claude plugin marketplace remove` now accepts `--scope user|project|local` for symmetry with `marketplace add`, `install`, and `uninstall`
823- 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
824- Auto mode no longer requires opt-in consent
825- Vim mode: `/` in NORMAL mode now opens reverse history search (like Ctrl+R), matching bash/zsh vi-mode
826- The `/usage` breakdown now includes large session files; files are scanned with a streaming read so memory usage stays flat
827- 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)
828- 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
829- Simplified the Workflow tool's inline progress display — live agent counts now show only in the persistent workflow status row below the prompt
830- 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
831- Added the session entrypoint as an OpenTelemetry metric attribute (`app.entrypoint`, opt-in via `OTEL_METRICS_INCLUDE_ENTRYPOINT=true`)
832- Fixed terminal styling degrading in very long sessions by recycling the renderer's style pool
833- Fixed the sandbox-enabled warning not appearing in condensed startup mode — it now shows in every layout
834- 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
835- Fixed focus mode showing a spurious "N messages hidden" count on turns with no hidden activity
836- Fixed clicking a link inside an expanded tool result collapsing the section instead of opening the link
837- 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
838- Fixed plugin MCP servers with the same command but different environment variables being incorrectly deduplicated
839- Fixed `/doctor` reporting "marketplace not found" or "plugin not found" for stale `enabledPlugins` entries referencing removed marketplaces or dropped plugins
840- Fixed plugins that track a git branch silently no longer receiving updates after the plugin registry was rebuilt
841- Fixed remote MCP servers failing to connect in Claude Code Remote sessions when the egress proxy is enabled
842- 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
843- Fixed the Agent tool description referencing an agent list that is never delivered when running with `--bare` or with attachments disabled
844- Fixed a background worker crash in `claude agents` when accepting a stale permission prompt after a subagent was cancelled
845- 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
846- Fixed the PushNotification tool incorrectly reporting "Mobile push not sent (Remote Control inactive)" in SDK-hosted sessions when Remote Control is enabled
847- 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
848
849## 2.1.150
850
851- Internal infrastructure improvements (no user-facing changes)
852
853## 2.1.149
854
855- `/usage` now shows a per-category breakdown of what's driving your limits usage — skills, subagents, plugins, and per-MCP-server cost
856- `/diff` detail view can now be scrolled with the keyboard (arrows, `j`/`k`, `PgUp`/`PgDn`, `Space`, `Home`/`End`)
857- Markdown output now renders GFM task list checkboxes (`- [ ] todo` / `- [x] done`) instead of plain bullets
858- Enterprise: added the `allowAllClaudeAiMcps` managed setting to load claude.ai cloud MCP connectors alongside `managed-mcp.json`
859- 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
860- 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)
861- Fixed PowerShell prefix/wildcard allow rules (e.g. `PowerShell(dotnet.exe build *)`) not pre-approving native executables and scripts
862- Fixed a permission-analysis gap where the parser trusted stale variable-tracking values for `PWD`/`OLDPWD`/`DIRSTACK` across `cd`/`pushd`/`popd`
863- Fixed `find` in the Bash tool exhausting the macOS system file/vnode table and crashing the host on large directory trees
864- Fixed the managed-settings approval dialog leaving the terminal frozen after accepting at startup
865- Fixed `/ultraplan` and remote session creation failing with "Could not capture uncommitted changes" when the working tree has no real changes
866- Fixed `otelHeadersHelper` failing silently when the script path contains spaces; helper failures are now reported in `/doctor` and the debug log
867- Fixed the thinking spinner staying amber across tool calls and onto fresh thinking bursts
868- Fixed collapsed Bash output reporting the wrong hidden-line count for outputs with many short lines
869- Fixed slash-command argument-hint clipping trailing typed characters when the hint overflows the input box
870- Fixed argument-hint and progressive arg suggestions not appearing after Tab-completing a skill whose frontmatter `name:` differs from its directory basename
871- Fixed the status bar showing the user's baseline `/effort` setting instead of the effort level applied by skill/agent `effort:` frontmatter
872- Fixed Ctrl+O transcript view freezing at the moment it was opened instead of tailing new messages
873- Fixed editing a recalled prompt-history entry losing the edit when navigating further up/down with arrow keys
874- Fixed `/config` exit summary reporting phantom changes to auto-compact and theme when toggling unrelated settings
875- Fixed `/insights` crashing when cached session-meta files are missing optional fields
876- Fixed malformed PowerShell and History tool calls with missing input being misclassified as reads in transcript collapsing
877- Fixed renaming a Remote Control session from claude.ai or the Claude mobile app not updating the local session name for `claude --resume`
878- Fixed a race where a just-submitted prompt could appear twice in the up-arrow history
879- Fixed tapping the "Jump to bottom" pill in fullscreen mode not dismissing it immediately
880- Improved `/feedback` reports to include the conversation that happened before context compaction, making issues from earlier in long sessions easier to triage
881
882## 2.1.148
883
884- Fixed the Bash tool returning exit code 127 on every command for some users (a regression introduced in 2.1.147)
885
886## 2.1.147
887
888- 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
889- 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
890- 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
891- Improved diff rendering performance for large file edits
892- Prompt history no longer records consecutive duplicate entries — recalling a prompt with arrow-up and submitting it again won't add another copy
893- Fixed enterprise login restrictions (`forceLoginOrgUUID` and `forceLoginMethod` managed-settings) not being enforced against third-party-provider and API-key sessions
894- Fixed `&` in `!` command output displaying as `&amp;`, which broke copy-pasting URLs from commands like `gcloud auth login` on headless machines
895- Fixed unknown slash commands silently doing nothing in headless/SDK mode — they now show an error message
896- Fixed `/help` rendering a broken tab header and showing only one command per page on small terminals when not in fullscreen mode
897- Fixed shell snapshot dropping user functions whose names start with a single underscore, which broke aliases referencing them
898- Fixed plugin agents that declare multiple `Agent(...)` types in `tools:` frontmatter dropping all but the last entry
899- Fixed hook `if` conditions like `PowerShell(git push*)` never matching — only `PowerShell(*)` worked
900- Fixed PowerShell tool dropping output for commands that rely on the default formatter
901- Fixed: on Windows, "Yes, and don't ask again" for a PowerShell script invocation now writes a rule that actually matches on subsequent runs
902- Fixed PowerShell tool failing on Windows with exit code 1 when `pwsh` is installed via winget or the Microsoft Store
903- Fixed `/effort` opening with the slider on the wrong level — it now starts at your current effort
904- Fixed paginating MCP servers dropping resources, templates, and prompts past page 1
905- Fixed full-screen strobing in attached background sessions on Windows Terminal while Claude is streaming
906- Fixed: on Windows, removing a background-job worktree no longer follows NTFS junctions into the main repo
907- Fixed `/background` refusing sessions whose only typed input was a skill or custom slash command
908- 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
909- Fixed `/theme` "New custom theme" and color editor dialogs not responding to Esc
910- Fixed an uncaught exception at the end of streaming sessions when running via the Agent SDK
911- Fixed a rare hang when waiting for scroll to settle on Windows
912- Fixed stale and doubled rows in the agent view list on Windows when background session results contain wide (CJK) characters
913- Fixed pasted text being delivered to agents as an unreadable `[Pasted text #N]` placeholder instead of the actual content
914- Fixed plugin component counts in `claude plugin details` and `/plugin` being doubled when a plugin's manifest listed paths overlapping its default directories
915- Fixed backgrounded sessions re-prompting for tool permissions you already granted with "don't ask again"
916- Fixed GNOME Terminal right-click and middle-click paste not inserting text
917- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_SUBAGENT_MODEL` not applying to teammate processes spawned by agent teams
918- Fixed slash commands followed by a tab or newline being treated as an unknown command
919- Fixed several spacing and layout glitches in the `/plugin`, `/status`, `/mobile`, `/sandbox`, and `/permissions` menus
920- Fixed stripped images prompting the model to repeatedly re-read media that was no longer present
921
922## 2.1.145
923
924- Added `claude agents --json` to list live Claude sessions as JSON for scripting (tmux-resurrect, status bars, session pickers)
925- 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
926- Status line JSON input now includes GitHub repo and PR information when detected
927- `/plugin` Discover and Browse screens now show a plugin's commands, agents, skills, hooks, and MCP/LSP servers before installation
928- `claude agents` terminal tab title now shows the awaiting-input count so an alt-tabbed window tells you when an agent needs attention
929- Slash command and @-mention suggestion list now supports mouse hover and click in fullscreen mode
930- Stop and SubagentStop hook input now includes `background_tasks` and `session_crons` fields
931- Fixed a permission-prompt bypass where bare variable assignments to non-allowlisted environment variables in Bash commands were auto-approved
932- 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
933- Fixed the spinner and elapsed-time display freezing until a keypress after the terminal was resized or refocused
934- Fixed the cross-project resume hint failing in default Windows PowerShell 5.1 — Windows now uses `;` as the command separator
935- Fixed voice push-to-talk not working in the agent view's reply pane
936- Fixed task lists rendering in random order when several tasks are created at once
937- Fixed stale "Failed to install Anthropic marketplace" banner showing when the marketplace is already installed
938- Fixed the PR badge in the footer not updating immediately after `gh pr create` and other PR-state-changing commands run in-session
939- Fixed Agent Teams teammates with non-ASCII names failing every API call due to invalid header encoding
940- Fixed `/review` using a deprecated `projectCards` GraphQL query that errored on repos with Classic Projects
941- Fixed `claude plugin validate` not flagging `skills:` entries that point at a file instead of a directory — the error now suggests the parent directory
942- Fixed an infinite loop where a skill using `context: fork` could repeatedly re-invoke itself instead of running
943- 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
944
945## 2.1.144
946
947- Added `/resume` support for background sessions — sessions started via `claude --bg` or agent view now appear alongside interactive ones, marked with `bg`
948- Added elapsed duration to background subagent completion notifications (e.g. "Agent completed · 3h 2m 5s")
949- The `/plugin` browse and discover panes now show when a plugin was last updated
950- `/model` now changes the model for the current session only; press `d` in the model picker to set a default for new sessions
951- Renamed "extra usage" to "usage credits" across CLI copy; `/extra-usage` is now `/usage-credits` (old name still works)
952- 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
953- 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
954- Fixed progressive terminal display corruption (stale/garbled glyphs) that could appear in very long sessions and only cleared on terminal resize or restart
955- Reduced terminal rendering glitches in VS Code by reducing spinner animation color count
956- 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)
957- 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
958- 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
959- Fixed `/branch` failing with "No conversation to branch" after entering a worktree or in some background sessions
960- Fixed pressing Escape in the AskUserQuestion notes field aborting the turn instead of returning to answer selection
961- Fixed model selection not applying when changed via the IDE model picker or `applyFlagSettings` after startup
962- Resumed sessions now keep the model they were using instead of picking up another session's `/model` choice
963- Fixed Bedrock and Vertex users unable to select "Opus (1M context)" from the `/model` picker (regression in v2.1.129)
964- Fixed remote-session login failing with "Can't access this organization" for users with `forceLoginMethod` and `forceLoginOrgUUID` set
965- Fixed MCP servers with paginated `tools/list` responses only returning the first page, silently dropping tools
966- Fixed MCP images with unsupported MIME types (e.g. SVG) breaking the conversation — now saved to disk and referenced in the tool result
967- Fixed file descriptor exhaustion when a build runs inside a skill directory — non-`.md` files no longer trigger skill reloads
968- Fixed session title being generated from plugin monitor output instead of the user's first prompt
969- Fixed Skill tool failing with permission error in headless mode (regression in v2.1.141)
970- 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
971- 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
972- 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
973- Fixed scrolling in attached background sessions on Windows — PgUp/PgDn, mouse wheel, and Ctrl+O transcript navigation now work
974- Fixed a crash when closing the terminal while attached to a background session
975- Fixed on Windows, pressing ← in `claude agents` leaving the list unresponsive to keyboard input
976- Fixed ghost characters at the left edge when switching panes in Agent View on Windows Terminal with CJK content
977- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve directories added via `/add-dir`
978- Fixed Edit/Write refusing with "background session hasn't isolated its changes yet" right after detaching a session that was already editing in place
979- Fixed `claude respawn <id>` on a stopped background session showing "stopped" instead of running
980- Fixed `/resume` picker not showing sessions forked from a background session
981- 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
982- Fixed background Bash tasks spawned by subagents staying "Running" in SDK task panels after the process exits
983- Fixed completed or stopped background sessions briefly failing to wake being permanently marked as a startup crash
984- Fixed markdown links in `claude agents` attached sessions rendering as plain text instead of clickable hyperlinks
985- Fixed custom `spinnerVerbs` applying to the post-turn duration message — past-tense built-ins like "Worked for 5s" are restored there
986- `claude agents` / `--bg` rejection messages now name the specific gate (non-TTY, env var, or setting) instead of a generic message
987- `claude --bg --name <label>` now echoes the name in the post-spawn confirmation
988- `claude agents`: renaming a background session with Ctrl+R now updates the attached session's banner immediately
989- Background session worktree isolation guard now applies for non-git VCS users with `WorktreeCreate` hooks configured
990- Plugin marketplace add/update now respects `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS`
991- `/plugin` now returns to the Installed list after enabling, disabling, or uninstalling a plugin
992- `/doctor` now shows an exec-form example when a command hook is missing the `command` field
993- Skill-listing truncation is no longer shown as a startup notification — run `/doctor` for the full breakdown
994- Improved recovery from rare pre-response stream stalls — now retries streaming once instead of falling back to a slower non-streaming request
995- 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)
996- 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.
997
998## 2.1.143
999
1000- 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
1001- Added projected context cost (per-turn and per-invocation token estimates) to the `/plugin` marketplace browse pane
1002- Added `worktree.bgIsolation: "none"` setting to let background sessions edit the working copy directly without `EnterWorktree`, for repos where worktrees are impractical
1003- PowerShell tool now passes `-ExecutionPolicy Bypass`. Opt out with `CLAUDE_CODE_POWERSHELL_RESPECT_EXECUTION_POLICY=1`
1004- Background sessions now preserve the model and effort level you set after waking from idle
1005- Shift+Tab in attached agent sessions now includes auto mode in the cycle
1006- Fixed a corrupt `.credentials.json` with a non-array `scopes` value hanging the CLI on startup or silently aborting OAuth token refresh
1007- Fixed right-click paste in `claude agents` on Windows Terminal and WSL
1008- 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`)
1009- Fixed Esc/Ctrl+C not cancelling a pending `/loop` wakeup while Claude is idle between iterations
1010- Fixed `/goal` evaluator firing while background shells or delegated subagents are still running
1011- Fixed `NO_COLOR`/`FORCE_COLOR` in settings.json `env` stripping Claude Code's own UI colors — they now apply to subprocesses only
1012- Fixed agent view spawning repeated PowerShell processes on Windows when listing sessions
1013- Fixed `/bg` without a prompt sending "continue" to the forked session — the fork now waits for input
1014- Fixed `--agent <name>` not finding plugin-contributed agents without the `plugin:` prefix
1015- Fixed deleting a session from agent view not removing its transcript file
1016- Fixed stale-fragment rendering when scrolling in attached background sessions on Windows Terminal
1017- Fixed background agents false-positive worker-stall detection storm after host sleep or macOS App Nap
1018- Fixed 5xx error messages pointing at status.claude.com instead of naming the configured gateway or cloud provider
1019- 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`.
1020- `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
1021- `claude agents` accepts `--permission-mode`, `--model`, `--effort`, and `--dangerously-skip-permissions` to set defaults for sessions dispatched from the view
1022- `claude --bg --dangerously-skip-permissions` now persists across retire→wake
1023- 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`
1024- Worktree cleanup no longer falls back to `rm -rf` when `git worktree remove` fails, preventing loss of gitignored or in-progress files
1025- 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.
1026- `/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.
1027- Background sessions launched from `claude agents` now honor `permissions.defaultMode` from settings.json (was previously overridden to auto mode)
1028- Fixed: on Windows, pressing ← in `claude agents` while a response was streaming could leave the agents list unresponsive to all input
1029- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve `--fallback-model`, so backgrounded workers degrade to the fallback model on overload instead of hard-failing.
1030- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve `--allow-dangerously-skip-permissions`, so the forked worker keeps bypass-permissions available in its Shift+Tab cycle.
1031- Fixed: background daemon spawn now falls back to the running binary when the `~/.local/bin/claude` launcher is missing or non-executable
1032- Fixed `claude agents --allow-dangerously-skip-permissions` defaulting dispatched sessions to bypass mode instead of making it available in the permission cycle
1033
1034## 2.1.142
1035
1036- 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
1037- 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
1038- Plugins with a root-level `SKILL.md` and no `skills/` subdirectory are now surfaced as a skill
1039- The `/plugin` details pane and `claude plugin details` now show LSP servers a plugin provides
1040- `/web-setup` warns before replacing an existing GitHub App connection
1041- 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
1042- Fixed background sessions not recognizing pre-existing git worktrees, blocking Edit while EnterWorktree refused to create a duplicate
1043- 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
1044- Fixed daemon not exiting cleanly after the binary is upgraded (e.g. `brew upgrade`), causing dispatched agents to crash-loop on the deleted path
1045- Fixed background agents crash-looping when the Claude-in-Chrome extension is connected without a shared tab
1046- Fixed clicking links in an attached `claude agents` session — the background worker's headless browser shim no longer applies while attached
1047- Fixed `claude agents` "v to open in editor" using the daemon's default editor instead of your shell's `$EDITOR`/`$VISUAL`
1048- Fixed `claude agents` deadlocking on Windows with network-drive working directories; Ctrl+C now works during startup
1049- Fixed background-color bleed when attaching to a `claude agents` session from Apple Terminal or other 256-color-only terminals
1050- Fixed `claude --bg --dangerously-skip-permissions` not persisting across retire/wake
1051- Fixed session titles being derived from the URL when the first message is a link
1052- Fixed redundant `set_model` requests from remote clients injecting duplicate `/model` breadcrumbs into the transcript
1053- Fixed plugins using `skills: ["./"]` showing a false "path escapes plugin directory" error
1054- Fixed plugin cache cleanup deleting the active plugin version directory when no installation metadata is present
1055- Fixed `/plugin` browse pane showing "0 installs" for newly published plugins
1056- Fixed plugin advisories not naming every `plugin.json` key that shadows a default folder
1057- Improved reactive compaction: the first summarize attempt now seeds from the original request's overflow size, avoiding a wasted near-full-context retry
1058- 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
1059- Removed stale `/model claude-sonnet-4-20250514` suggestion from Usage Policy refusal messages
1060
1061## 2.1.141
1062
1063- Added `terminalSequence` field to hook JSON output so hooks can emit desktop notifications, window titles, and bells without a controlling terminal
1064- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS` to clone GitHub plugin sources over HTTPS instead of SSH, for environments without a GitHub SSH key
1065- 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
1066- Added `claude agents --cwd <path>` to scope the session list to a directory
1067- `/feedback` can now include recent sessions (last 24 hours or 7 days) for issues spanning more than the current session
1068- Rewind menu: added "Summarize up to here" to compress earlier context while keeping recent turns intact
1069- Auto mode permission dialog now explains when a `permissions.ask` rule caused the prompt
1070- Restored the "view diff in your IDE" option on file-edit permission prompts when an IDE is connected
1071- Background agents launched via `/bg` or `←←` now preserve the current permission mode instead of reverting to default
1072- `claude agents`: agents that finish work but leave a background shell running now move to Completed instead of staying under Working
1073- Improved spinner feedback during long thinking periods — the spinner now warms to amber after 10 seconds to signal Claude is still working
1074- Improved plugin menu navigation: `→`/Tab switch tabs, `↑` moves to the tab strip, and tab headers and search box are clickable in fullscreen mode
1075- 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
1076- 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
1077- Fixed `claude agents` showing the agent-type list instead of the dashboard when launched through a wrapper that adds flags
1078- Fixed `claude agents` opening a crashed session firing redundant dispatches when the working directory was deleted
1079- 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
1080- Fixed `/model` in one session silently changing the autocompact threshold in other concurrent sessions
1081- Fixed switching permission mode while a tool-permission prompt is open not auto-dismissing the prompt when the new setting permits the tool
1082- Fixed pressing Enter while a permission/dialog prompt is open also submitting text in the input box
1083- Fixed hooks receiving a non-existent `transcript_path` after `EnterWorktree` switches the working directory

1095- Fixed error overlay dumping minified bundle source that hid the original error message
1096- Fixed pressing Enter after typing a feedback survey rating digit submitting it as a chat message instead of the rating
1097- Fixed pressing `x` on a selected subagent in the agent panel typing into the prompt instead of stopping the agent
1098- Fixed session title being derived from plugin monitor notifications before the user's first prompt
1099- Fixed "Allowed by PermissionRequest hook" repeating once per tool call under a collapsed read/search group
1100- Fixed `/tui` silently dropping running background shells and subagents — now refuses and asks to wait for them to finish

1106- Fixed `claude plugin install` failing for plugins whose marketplace `ref` no longer exists upstream when a `sha` is also pinned
1107- Fixed plugin details pane showing 0 MCP servers for plugins that declare them via `.mcp.json`
1108- 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
1109- Fixed MCP server configs using POSIX shell parameter expansions (e.g. `${var%pattern}`) being incorrectly flagged as missing environment variables
1110- Fixed MCP HTTP/SSE servers returning 403 on connect showing as "failed" instead of "needs auth"
1111- Fixed remote MCP servers disconnecting unnecessarily when the optional server-events stream failed to reconnect — tool calls continue over POST
1112- Fixed Remote Control MCP connectors all failing with 401 when the worker session token rotated mid-session
1113- Fixed Remote Control automatically re-enrolling a trusted device when the server rejects a stale token, instead of looping through `/login`
1114- Fixed a race where early OTel spans could be silently dropped in SDK/headless mode with beta tracing enabled
1115- Fixed custom `voice:pushToTalk` keybindings and `"space": null` unbinds being silently ignored

1117- Fixed SDK "Claude Code native binary not found" on Linux when both glibc and musl platform packages are installed
1118- Bedrock: `awsCredentialExport` now always runs when configured instead of being skipped when ambient AWS credentials resolve, fixing auth for cross-account access
1119- [VSCode] Fixed in-chat mic showing no feedback when the microphone produced only silence — now shows "No audio detected"
1120- [VSCode] Voice mode: the WSL error now suggests installing `sox libsox-fmt-pulse` for WSLg users
1121- `claude agents`: launching a session no longer fails when the pre-warmed background worker is unhealthy — now falls back to a fresh launch
1122- `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
1123- Empty idle background sessions left over from `←` are now automatically retired by the daemon after 5 minutes
1124
1125## 2.1.140
1126
1127- Improved Agent tool `subagent_type` matching to accept case- and separator-insensitive values (e.g. `"Code Reviewer"` resolves to `code-reviewer`)
1128- Updated agent color palette
1129- Fixed `/goal` silently hanging when `disableAllHooks` or `allowManagedHooksOnly` is set — now shows a clear message instead of an indicator that never resolves
1130- Fixed a regression in settings hot-reload where symlinked settings files caused misattributed change events and spurious `ConfigChange` hooks

1135- Fixed `/loop` scheduling redundant wakeups to poll for background tasks that already notify on completion
1136- Fixed a recurring event-loop stall on Windows when a missing executable (e.g. `gh`) triggered synchronous `where.exe` re-spawns on every check
1137- Fixed `Read` tool calls failing validation when `offset` is passed as a whitespace-padded or `+`-prefixed string
1138- Fixed native terminal cursor not staying at the input caret when the terminal loses focus
1139- 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`.
1140
1141## 2.1.139
1142
1143- 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
1144- 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
1145- Added `/scroll-speed` command to tune mouse wheel scroll speed with a live preview
1146- Added `claude plugin details <name>` to show a plugin's component inventory and projected per-session token cost
1147- Added transcript view navigation: `?` for keyboard shortcuts, `{`/`}` to jump between user prompts, `v` to toggle shortcut panel
1148- Added hook `args: string[]` field (exec form) that spawns the command directly without a shell, so path placeholders never need quoting
1149- Added hook `continueOnBlock` config option for `PostToolUse` — set to `true` to feed the hook's rejection reason back to Claude and continue the turn
1150- MCP stdio servers now receive `CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR` in their environment, matching hooks. Plugin configs can reference `${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR}` in commands
1151- Compaction prompt now asks the model to preserve sensitive user instructions
1152- `/mcp` Reconnect now picks up `.mcp.json` edits without a restart, and shows the HTTP status and URL when reconnecting fails
1153- `/context all` per-skill token estimates now account for the model's tokenizer and show rounded values
1154- `claude plugin install <name>@<marketplace>` now auto-refreshes the marketplace and retries before reporting a plugin as not found
1155- `/plugin` installed-plugin details now show hook event names and MCP server names cleanly
1156- `/context` now shows the providing plugin's name for plugin-sourced skills
1157- Remote MCP server reconnect retry on transient failures is now enabled for all users
1158- API requests from subagents now carry `x-claude-code-agent-id` / `x-claude-code-parent-agent-id` headers, and `claude_code.llm_request` OTEL spans include `agent_id` / `parent_agent_id` attributes
1159- Remote Control, `/schedule`, claude.ai MCP connectors, and notification preferences are now disabled when `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` / `apiKeyHelper` / `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` is set, even if a Claude.ai login also exists. Unset the API key to use these features
1160- Fixed a deadlock where expired credentials and the `forceRemoteSettingsRefresh` policy setting blocked `claude auth login`/`logout`/`status` with no way to recover
1161- Fixed `autoAllowBashIfSandboxed` not auto-approving commands with shell expansions like `$VAR` and `$(cmd)`
1162- Fixed a bug where a hook writing to the terminal could corrupt an on-screen interactive prompt; hooks now run without terminal access
1163- Fixed unbounded memory growth when an HTTP/SSE MCP server streams non-protocol data — response bodies now capped at 16 MB per SSE frame
1164- Fixed `Skill(name *)` permission rules — the wildcard form now works as a prefix match, matching `Bash(ls *)` behavior
1165- Fixed settings hot-reload not detecting edits to symlinked `~/.claude/settings.json`
1166- Fixed plugin details failing to load when the marketplace key differs from the manifest name
1167- Fixed `/model` picker "Default" row not reflecting `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL`/`ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL` overrides
1168- Fixed spurious "stream idle timeout" 5 minutes after a response completed, caused by the watchdog timer not being cleared on stream cancellation
1169- Fixed silent `exit 1` when 10+ MCP servers are configured and the cache directory is unwritable — the error message now includes the underlying cause
1170- Fixed a typing cursor blinking on tab names, list pointers, and select rows in dialogs
1171- Fixed transcript view letter shortcuts not working after mouse click
1172- Fixed Bash-mode up-arrow history repeating the first entry and clobbering the in-progress draft
1173- Fixed pasting or dropping multiple images only inserting the last one
1174- Fixed hyperlinks using unreadable dark navy on dark themes — they now adapt to the active theme
1175- Fixed model picker showing a redundant "Current model" row for third-party users whose model is set to the `opus` alias
1176- Fixed legacy Opus picker entry on PAYG 3P providers resolving to the same model as the default entry
1177- 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
1178- Fixed scroll behavior in Windows Terminal and VS Code when attached to background sessions
1179- Fixed MCP resources from disconnected servers lingering in `@server:` autocomplete
1180- Fixed two-file diff snippets over-reporting the number of truncated lines by one

1201
1202## 2.1.136
1203
1204- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FEEDBACK_SURVEY_FOR_OTEL` to re-enable the session quality survey for enterprises capturing responses through OpenTelemetry
1205- Added `settings.autoMode.hard_deny` for auto mode classifier rules that block unconditionally regardless of user intent or allow exceptions
1206- 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
1207- Fixed a rare login loop where a concurrent credential write could overwrite a freshly-rotated OAuth token and force re-login
1208- Fixed MCP OAuth refresh tokens being lost when multiple servers refresh concurrently — users with several remote MCP servers should no longer need daily re-authentication
1209- Fixed an API error (400) when extended thinking emitted a redacted thinking block after a tool call
1210- Fixed `--resume` / `--continue` not finding sessions when the project path contains underscores
1211- Fixed plan mode not blocking file writes when a matching `Edit(...)` allow rule exists
1212- WSL2: image paste from Windows clipboard now works via a PowerShell fallback when xclip/wl-paste cannot read image data
1213- Fixed plugin `Stop`/`UserPromptSubmit` hooks failing when cache cleanup deletes a version still in use by a running session
1214- Improved visual consistency across slash command dialogs: standardized footer hints, dialog spacing, and arrow-key styling, and the dialog frame now appears immediately during loading instead of popping in after
1215- Fixed colors appearing at wrong positions in bash command output and markdown code blocks
1216- Fixed ReasonML diffs rendering corrupted "undefined" text artifacts at word-diff boundaries
1217- Fixed worktree exit dialog warning about uncommitted files in the wrong directory after worktree removal

1225- Fixed a renderer crash when a tool's collapsibility classification changes mid-session
1226- 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
1227- Fixed IDE shell-integration lock files not respecting `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`
1228- Fixed trailing whitespace in copied terminal output during streaming
1229- Fixed plugin uninstall and enable/disable not matching slugs case-insensitively

1244- Fixed `/release-notes` getting stuck on an old version after a failed changelog refresh
1245- Fixed `/mcp` server list not scrolling when there are more servers than fit in the terminal
1246- Fixed mid-input slash command autocomplete not working after an initial slash command
1247- Fixed scrolling to bottom re-engaging auto-follow with `autoScrollEnabled: false`
1248- Fixed prompt suggestions being auto-submitted by Enter on an empty input instead of requiring Tab or arrow to accept
1249- Fixed keyboard shortcut hints not reflecting rebound keys from `keybindings.json`
1250- Fixed `/settings` language change being reverted on Escape after confirming
1251- Fixed `/terminal-setup` only appearing in autocomplete on exact name match instead of partial prefixes
1252- Fixed "Chat about this" on an `AskUserQuestion` dialog erasing the question text
1253- Fixed MCP tool results being invisible when the server returns content blocks
1254- Improved error message when `--worktree` collides with an existing or stale worktree
1255- Changed plugin marketplace removal key to `d` (matching delete elsewhere) instead of `r` which collided with retry
1256
1257## 2.1.133
1258
1259- 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
1260- Added `sandbox.bwrapPath` and `sandbox.socatPath` managed settings (Linux/WSL) to specify custom bubblewrap and socat binary locations
1261- Added `parentSettingsBehavior` admin-tier key (`'first-wins' | 'merge'`) to let admins opt SDK `managedSettings` (parent tier) into the policy merge
1262- 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`
1263- Improved focus mode behavior
1264- Improved memory usage by releasing warm-spare background workers under memory pressure
1265- Fixed parallel sessions all dead-ending at 401 after a refresh-token race wiped shared credentials
1266- Fixed `Edit`/`Write` allow rules scoped to a drive root (`C:\`) or POSIX `/` matching incorrectly and always prompting

1268- Fixed pressing Esc during conversation compaction showing a spurious "Error compacting conversation" notification
1269- 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
1270- Fixed Read/Write/Edit being denied on mapped network drives passed via `--add-dir` / SDK `additionalDirectories`
1271- 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
1272- Fixed `/effort` in one session unexpectedly changing the effort level of other concurrent sessions, and a related issue where an IDE effort change could be silently dropped
1273- Fixed subagents not discovering project, user, or plugin skills via the Skill tool
1274- `claude --help` now lists `--remote-control` alongside `--remote-control-session-name-prefix`
1275- [VSCode] Fixed `claudeCode.claudeProcessWrapper` failing with "Unsupported platform" when the extension build doesn't bundle a Claude binary
1276
1277## 2.1.132
1278
1279- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` environment variable to the Bash tool subprocess environment, matching the `session_id` passed to hooks
1280- 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
1281- Added a "Pasting…" footer hint while a Ctrl+V image paste is being read from the clipboard
1282- 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
1283- Fixed an uncaught exception when the terminal is closed or SSH disconnects mid-session under the native build
1284- Fixed `--resume` failing with `no low surrogate in string` when a tool error truncation split an emoji; pre-corrupted sessions are sanitized on load
1285- 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
1286- Fixed fullscreen mode showing a blank screen after laptop sleep/wake or Ctrl+Z/`fg` until the next keystroke or stream output
1287- Fixed cursor landing mid-grapheme on Ctrl+E/A/K/U/arrow keys when an Indic conjunct or ZWJ emoji wraps across lines
1288- Fixed vim operators corrupting text containing decomposed (NFD) accented characters
1289- Fixed pasting text starting with `/` silently swallowing the input or triggering an unknown-command reply
1290- Fixed pasting dumping stray escape sequences into the prompt when focus events or mouse-tracking reports interleave with the bracketed paste
1291- Fixed mouse wheel scrolling being too fast in Cursor and VS Code 1.92–1.104 due to an upstream xterm.js bug
1292- Fixed scroll-wheel handling in JetBrains IDE 2025.2 terminals (spurious arrow keys, wrong-direction events, runaway acceleration)
1293- Fixed `/usage` Ctrl+S hanging when copying the stats screenshot to the clipboard on Linux/X11
1294- Fixed `/terminal-setup` showing a contradictory error in Windows Terminal — Shift+Enter is natively supported there
1295- Fixed `/effort` picker not reflecting the `CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL` env var override
1296- Fixed `/status` showing the wrong default model for some users
1297- Fixed slash command autocomplete popup being capped at ~3–5 visible commands instead of scaling with terminal height
1298- Fixed statusline `context_window` token counts reflecting cumulative session totals instead of current context usage
1299- Fixed Alt+T (thinking toggle) not working on macOS terminals without "Option as Meta" enabled (iTerm2, Terminal.app defaults)
1300- Fixed dead keyboard input on Windows after re-opening a background session from `claude agents`
1301- Fixed unbounded memory growth (10GB+ RSS) when a stdio MCP server writes non-protocol data to stdout
1302- 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`
1303- Fixed unauthorized claude.ai MCP connectors showing as "failed" instead of "needs auth", and headless `-p` mode retrying non-transient 4xx connection failures
1304- Improved visual consistency in slash command dialogs and `/login`, `/upgrade`, `/extra-usage` dialog spacing
1305- Updated the `/tui fullscreen` startup banner to describe additional renderer benefits (lower memory usage, mouse support, auto-copy on select)
1306- Fixed Bedrock and Vertex 400 errors when `ENABLE_PROMPT_CACHING_1H` is set
1307
1308## 2.1.131
1309

1311- Fixed Mantle endpoint authentication failing with missing `x-api-key` header
1312
1313## 2.1.129
1314
1315- Added `--plugin-url <url>` flag to fetch a plugin `.zip` archive from a URL for the current session
1316- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_FORCE_SYNC_OUTPUT=1` env var to force-enable synchronized output on terminals that auto-detection misses (e.g. Emacs `eat`)
1317- 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
1318- Plugin manifests: `themes` and `monitors` should now be declared under `"experimental": { ... }`. Top-level declarations still work but `claude plugin validate` will warn
1319- 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)
1320- 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
1321- Third-party deployments (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, or `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` gateway) no longer see spinner tips pointing at first-party Anthropic surfaces
1322- `skillOverrides` setting now works: `off` hides from model and `/`, `user-invocable-only` hides from model only, `name-only` collapses description
1323- The `claude_code.pull_request.count` OTel metric now counts PRs/MRs created via MCP tools, not just shell commands
1324- Policy refusal error messages now include the API Request ID for easier support debugging
1325- Fixed API errors with unrecognized 400 status codes showing raw JSON instead of the underlying error message
1326- Fixed `/clear` not resetting the terminal tab title after a conversation
1327- Fixed session title chip from `/rename` disappearing while a permission or other dialog is active
1328- Fixed agent panel below the prompt being hidden when subagents are running (regression in 2.1.122)
1329- Fixed external-editor handoff (Ctrl+G) blanking the conversation history above the prompt
1330- Fixed `/context` dumping its rendered ASCII visualization grid into the conversation, wasting ~1.6k tokens per call
1331- Fixed `/agents` Library list arrow-key navigation: the highlighted agent now stays visible when the list exceeds the viewport
1332- Fixed `/branch` success message not including the new branch's session id for `/resume`
1333- Fixed bold headers with keycap/ZWJ/skin-tone emoji losing trailing characters in fullscreen mode
1334- Fixed server-managed settings policy not applying for enterprise/team users whose stored OAuth credentials lacked the `user:inference` scope
1335- Fixed OAuth refresh race after wake-from-sleep that could log out all running sessions
1336- Fixed 1-hour prompt cache TTL being silently downgraded to 5 minutes
1337- Fixed cache-miss warning appearing spuriously after `/clear` or compaction when changing `/effort` or `/model`
1338- Fixed `Bash(mkdir *)`, `Bash(touch *)` and similar allow rules not being honored for in-project paths
1339- Fixed `deniedMcpServers` patterns with a `*://` scheme wildcard not matching mixed-case hostnames
1340- Fixed harmless WebSocket warning being logged as an error in `--debug` during voice mode
1341- [VSCode] Fixed `/clear` not clearing the conversation context and displayed transcript
1342
1343## 2.1.128
1344
1345- Bare `/color` (no args) now picks a random session color
1346- `/mcp` now shows the tool count for connected servers and flags servers that connected with 0 tools
1347- `--plugin-dir` now accepts `.zip` plugin archives in addition to directories
1348- `--channels` now works with console (API key) authentication — console orgs with managed settings must set `channelsEnabled: true` to enable
1349- Updated `/model` picker: collapsed duplicate Opus 4.7 entries, and current Opus now shows as "Opus" instead of "Opus 4.7"
1350- 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
1351- MCP: `workspace` is now a reserved server name — existing servers with that name will be skipped with a warning
1352- Reconnecting MCP servers no longer flood the conversation with full tool-name lists on every reconnect — re-announced tools are summarized by server prefix
1353- SDK hosts now receive a persistent `localSettings` suggestion for Bash permission prompts, so "Always allow" writes to `.claude/settings.local.json`
1354- `EnterWorktree` now creates the new branch from local HEAD as documented, instead of `origin/<default-branch>` — unpushed commits are no longer dropped

1364- Fixed fenced code blocks inside list items carrying leading whitespace into the clipboard on copy-paste
1365- Fixed tab navigation in `/config` stranding focus — the tab header now stays focused so arrows and Esc keep working
1366- Fixed markdown link labels being lost on terminals without OSC 8 hyperlink support — links now render as `label (url)` instead of just the URL
1367- 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
1368- Fixed parallel shell tool calls: a failing read-only command (grep, git diff, ls) no longer cancels sibling calls
1369- Fixed banner showing "with X effort" on models that don't support effort
1370- Fixed `/fast` on 3P providers fuzzy-matching to an unrelated skill instead of showing "not available"

1378- Fixed sub-agent progress summaries missing the prompt cache (~3× `cache_creation` reduction)
1379- Fixed `/plugin update` never detecting new versions of npm-sourced plugins
1380- Fixed sub-agent summaries firing repeatedly while a sub-agent's transcript is static, capping worst-case token cost on idle sub-agents
1381- Headless `--output-format stream-json`: `init.plugin_errors` now includes `--plugin-dir` load failures in addition to dependency demotions
1382
1383## 2.1.126

1387- `--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)

1395- **Security:** Fixed `allowManagedDomainsOnly` / `allowManagedReadPathsOnly` being ignored when a higher-priority managed-settings source lacked a `sandbox` block
1396- 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
1397- Fixed showing the login screen for "OAuth not allowed for organization" errors — now shows guidance to contact your admin

1409- Fixed plan-mode tools being unavailable in interactive sessions launched with `--channels`
1410- Fixed `/plugin` Uninstall reporting "Enabled" instead of "Uninstalled"
1411- Bounded total size of file-modified reminders when a linter touches many files at once
1412- Fixed `/remote-control` retries appearing stuck on "connecting…" — each retry now shows its result
1413- Fixed Remote Control failure notification not showing the error reason for initial connection failures
1414- 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
1415- PowerShell tool: bare `--` (e.g. `git diff -- file`) is no longer mis-flagged as the `--%` stop-parsing token
1416- Fixed Agent SDK hang when the model emits a malformed tool name in a parallel tool call batch
1417

1429- OpenTelemetry: added `claude_code.at_mention` log event for `@`-mention resolution
1430- 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
1431- Fixed `/model` not showing the Effort option for Bedrock application inference profile ARNs, and those ARNs not receiving `output_config.effort`

1437- Fixed images sent to newer models being resized to 2576px per side instead of the correct 2000px maximum

1439- Fixed assistant messages appearing blank in some sessions due to a stale view preference
1440- Fixed a malformed hooks entry in `settings.json` no longer invalidating the entire file
1441- Voice mode: keybindings bound to Caps Lock now show an error since terminals don't deliver Caps Lock as a key event
1442
1443## 2.1.121

1606- The `/resume` command now offers to summarize stale, large sessions before re-reading them, matching the existing `--resume` behavior
1607- Faster startup when both local and claude.ai MCP servers are configured (concurrent connect now default)

Custom/MCP command names are redacted unless `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1` is set
1614- 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)

1629- [VSCode] Fixed "Manage Plugins" panel breaking when multiple large marketplaces are configured
1630- 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
1631
1632## 2.1.116
1633
1634- `/resume` on large sessions is significantly faster (up to 67% on 40MB+ sessions) and handles sessions with many dead-fork entries more efficiently

1663
1664## 2.1.113
1665
1666- Changed the CLI to spawn a native Claude Code binary (via a per-platform optional dependency) instead of bundled JavaScript
1667- Added `sandbox.network.deniedDomains` setting to block specific domains even when a broader `allowedDomains` wildcard would otherwise permit them
1668- Fullscreen mode: Shift+↑/↓ now scrolls the viewport when extending a selection past the visible edge

1673- `/extra-usage` now works from Remote Control (mobile/web) clients
1674- Remote Control clients can now query `@`-file autocomplete suggestions
1675- Improved `/ultrareview`: faster launch with parallelized checks, diffstat in the launch dialog, and animated launching state
1676- Subagents that stall mid-stream now fail with a clear error after 10 minutes instead of hanging silently
1677- Bash tool: multi-line commands whose first line is a comment now show the full command in the transcript, closing a UI-spoofing vector
1678- Running `cd <current-directory> && git …` no longer triggers a permission prompt when the `cd` is a no-op
1679- Security: on macOS, `/private/{etc,var,tmp,home}` paths are now treated as dangerous removal targets under `Bash(rm:*)` allow rules
1680- Security: Bash deny rules now match commands wrapped in `env`/`sudo`/`watch`/`ionice`/`setsid` and similar exec wrappers

1695- Fixed prompt cursor disappearing when `NO_COLOR` is set
1696- Fixed `ToolSearch` ranking so pasted MCP tool names surface the actual tool instead of description-matching siblings
1697- Fixed compacting a resumed long-context session failing with "Extra usage is required for long context requests"

1712- Auto mode is now available for Max subscribers when using Opus 4.7
1713- 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`
1714- `/effort` now opens an interactive slider when called without arguments, with arrow-key navigation between levels and Enter to confirm
1715- Added "Auto (match terminal)" theme option that matches your terminal's dark/light mode — select it from `/theme`

1717- 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
1718- Auto mode no longer requires `--enable-auto-mode`
1719- 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)

1721- Suggest the closest matching subcommand when `claude <word>` is invoked with a near-miss typo (e.g. `claude udpate` → "Did you mean `claude update`?")
1722- Plan files are now named after your prompt (e.g. `fix-auth-race-snug-otter.md`) instead of purely random words
1723- 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
1724- `/skills` menu now supports sorting by estimated token count — press `t` to toggle
1725- `Ctrl+U` now clears the entire input buffer (previously: delete to start of line); press `Ctrl+Y` to restore
1726- `Ctrl+L` now forces a full screen redraw in addition to clearing the prompt input

1731- Suppressed spurious decompression, network, and transient error messages that could appear in the TUI during normal operation
1732- Reverted the v2.1.110 cap on non-streaming fallback retries — it traded long waits for more outright failures during API overload
1733- Fixed terminal display tearing (random characters, drifting input) in iTerm2 + tmux setups when terminal notifications are sent
1734- 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
1735- Fixed LSP diagnostics from before an edit appearing after it, causing the model to re-read files it just edited
1736- Fixed tab-completing `/resume` immediately resuming an arbitrary titled session instead of showing the session picker
1737- Fixed `/context` grid rendering with extra blank lines between rows
1738- Fixed `/clear` dropping the session name set by `/rename`, causing statusline output to lose `session_name`
1739- 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
1740- Fixed Claude calling a non-existent `commit` skill and showing "Unknown skill: commit" for users without a custom `/commit` command
1741- Fixed 429 rate-limit errors on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry referencing status.claude.com (it only covers Anthropic-operated providers)

1744- Windows: `CLAUDE_ENV_FILE` and SessionStart hook environment files now apply (previously a no-op)
1745- 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
1746

1773- Hardened "Open in editor" actions against command injection from untrusted filenames
1774- Fixed `PermissionRequest` hooks returning `updatedInput` not being re-checked against `permissions.deny` rules; `setMode:'bypassPermissions'` updates now respect `disableBypassPermissionsMode`
1775- Fixed `PreToolUse` hook `additionalContext` being dropped when the tool call fails
1776- Fixed stdio MCP servers that print stray non-JSON lines to stdout being disconnected on the first stray line (regression in 2.1.105)

1786
1787## 2.1.108
1788
1789- 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
1790- 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.

1792- `/undo` is now an alias for `/rewind`
1793- Improved `/model` to warn before switching models mid-conversation, since the next response re-reads the full history uncached
1794- Improved `/resume` picker to default to sessions from the current directory; press `Ctrl+A` to show all projects
1795- 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
1796- Reduced memory footprint for file reads, edits, and syntax highlighting by loading language grammars on demand
1797- Added "verbose" indicator when viewing the detailed transcript (`Ctrl+O`)
1798- Added a warning at startup when prompt caching is disabled via `DISABLE_PROMPT_CACHING*` environment variables

1804- Fixed session titles showing placeholder example text when the first message is a short greeting
1805- Fixed terminal escape codes appearing as garbage text in the prompt input after `--teleport`
1806- Fixed `/feedback` retry: pressing Enter to resubmit after a failure now works without first editing the description
1807- Fixed `--teleport` and `--resume <id>` precondition errors (e.g. dirty git tree, session not found) exiting silently instead of showing the error message
1808- Fixed Remote Control session titles set in the web UI being overwritten by auto-generated titles after the third message

1825- Improved network error messages: connection errors now show a retry message immediately instead of a silent spinner
1826- Improved file write display: long single-line writes (e.g. minified JSON) are now truncated in the UI instead of paginating across many screens
1827- Improved `/doctor` layout with status icons; press `f` to have Claude fix reported issues
1828- Improved `/config` labels and descriptions for clarity
1829- Improved skill description handling: raised the listing cap from 250 to 1,536 characters and added a startup warning when descriptions are truncated
1830- Improved `WebFetch` to strip `<style>` and `<script>` contents from fetched pages so CSS-heavy pages no longer exhaust the content budget before reaching actual text
1831- Improved stale agent worktree cleanup to remove worktrees whose PR was squash-merged instead of keeping them indefinitely

1859
1860- Added `/team-onboarding` command to generate a teammate ramp-up guide from your local Claude Code usage
1861- Added OS CA certificate store trust by default, so enterprise TLS proxies work without extra setup (set `CLAUDE_CODE_CERT_STORE=bundled` to use only bundled CAs)
1862- `/ultraplan` and other remote-session features now auto-create a default cloud environment instead of requiring web setup first
1863- Improved brief mode to retry once when Claude responds with plain text instead of a structured message
1864- Improved focus mode: Claude now writes more self-contained summaries since it knows you only see its final message
1865- Improved tool-not-available errors to explain why and how to proceed when the model calls a tool that exists but isn't available in the current context
1866- Improved rate-limit retry messages to show which limit was hit and when it resets instead of an opaque seconds countdown
1867- Improved refusal error messages to include the API-provided explanation when available
1868- Improved `claude -p --resume <name>` to accept session titles set via `/rename` or `--name`
1869- Improved settings resilience: an unrecognized hook event name in `settings.json` no longer causes the entire file to be ignored
1870- Improved plugin hooks from plugins force-enabled by managed settings to run when `allowManagedHooksOnly` is set
1871- Improved `/plugin` and `claude plugin update` to show a warning when the marketplace could not be refreshed, instead of silently reporting a stale version

1875- Fixed a command injection vulnerability in the POSIX `which` fallback used by LSP binary detection
1876- Fixed a memory leak where long sessions retained dozens of historical copies of the message list in the virtual scroller
1877- Fixed `--resume`/`--continue` losing conversation context on large sessions when the loader anchored on a dead-end branch instead of the live conversation

1879- Fixed a crash on `--resume` when a persisted Edit/Write tool result was missing its `file_path`
1880- Fixed a hardcoded 5-minute request timeout that aborted slow backends (local LLMs, extended thinking, slow gateways) regardless of `API_TIMEOUT_MS`
1881- Fixed `permissions.deny` rules not overriding a PreToolUse hook's `permissionDecision: "ask"` — previously the hook could downgrade a deny into a prompt
1882- Fixed `--setting-sources` without `user` causing background cleanup to ignore `cleanupPeriodDays` and delete conversation history older than 30 days

2280- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_SUBPROCESS_ENV_SCRUB=1` to strip Anthropic and cloud provider credentials from subprocess environments (Bash tool, hooks, MCP stdio servers)
2281- Added transcript search — press `/` in transcript mode (`Ctrl+O`) to search, `n`/`N` to step through matches
2282- Added `Ctrl+X Ctrl+E` as an alias for opening the external editor (readline-native binding; `Ctrl+G` still works)

2324- Faster `claude -p` startup with unauthenticated HTTP/SSE MCP servers (~600ms saved)
2325- Bash ghost-text suggestions now include just-submitted commands immediately
2326- Increased non-streaming fallback token cap (21k → 64k) and timeout (120s → 300s local) so fallback requests are less likely to be truncated

2328- `/status` now works while Claude is responding, instead of being queued until the turn finishes
2329- Plugin MCP servers that duplicate an org-managed connector are now suppressed instead of running a second connection

2335- Claude can now reference the on-disk path of clipboard-pasted images for file operations
2336- `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.

2352
2353## 2.1.81
2354
2355- 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

2452
2453## 2.1.77

2456- Added `allowRead` sandbox filesystem setting to re-allow read access within `denyRead` regions
2457- `/copy` now accepts an optional index: `/copy N` copies the Nth-latest assistant response
2458- Fixed "Always Allow" on compound bash commands (e.g. `cd src && npm test`) saving a single rule for the full string instead of per-subcommand, leading to dead rules and repeated permission prompts
2459- Fixed auto-updater starting overlapping binary downloads when the slash-command overlay repeatedly opened and closed, accumulating tens of gigabytes of memory
2460- Fixed `--resume` silently truncating recent conversation history due to a race between memory-extraction writes and the main transcript

2488- Improved Esc to abort in-flight non-streaming API requests
2489- Improved `claude plugin validate` to check skill, agent, and command frontmatter plus `hooks/hooks.json`, catching YAML parse errors and schema violations
2490- Background bash tasks are now killed if output exceeds 5GB, preventing runaway processes from filling disk
2491- Sessions are now auto-named from plan content when you accept a plan
2492- Improved headless mode plugin installation to compose correctly with `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_SEED_DIR`
2493- Show a notice when `apiKeyHelper` takes longer than 10s, preventing it from blocking the main loop
2494- The Agent tool no longer accepts a `resume` parameter — use `SendMessage({to: agentId})` to continue a previously spawned agent
2495- `SendMessage` now auto-resumes stopped agents in the background instead of returning an error
2496- Renamed `/fork` to `/branch` (`/fork` still works as an alias)
2497- [VSCode] Improved plan preview tab titles to use the plan's heading instead of "Claude's Plan"
2498- [VSCode] When option+click doesn't trigger native selection on macOS, the footer now points to the `macOptionClickForcesSelection` setting

2523- Fixed transcript not auto-scrolling to new messages after selecting text
2524- Fixed Escape key not working to exit the login method selection screen

2526- Fixed bridge sessions failing to recover after extended WebSocket disconnects
2527- Fixed slash commands not found when typing the exact name of a soft-hidden command
2528- Improved `--worktree` startup performance by reading git refs directly and skipping redundant `git fetch` when the remote branch is already available locally
2529- Improved background agent behavior — killing a background agent now preserves its partial results in the conversation context
2530- Improved model fallback notifications — now always visible instead of hidden behind verbose mode, with human-friendly model names
2531- Improved blockquote readability on dark terminal themes — text is now italic with a left bar instead of dim
2532- Improved stale worktree cleanup — worktrees left behind after an interrupted parallel run are now automatically cleaned up
2533- Improved Remote Control session titles — now derived from your first prompt instead of showing "Interactive session"
2534- Improved `/voice` to show your dictation language on enable and warn when your `language` setting isn't supported for voice input
2535- Updated `--plugin-dir` to only accept one path to support subcommands — use repeated `--plugin-dir` for multiple directories

2563- Added `autoMemoryDirectory` setting to configure a custom directory for auto-memory storage
2564- Fixed memory leak where streaming API response buffers were not released when the generator was terminated early, causing unbounded RSS growth on the Node.js/npm code path
2565- Fixed managed policy `ask` rules being bypassed by user `allow` rules or skill `allowed-tools`
2566- Fixed full model IDs (e.g., `claude-opus-4-5`) being silently ignored in agent frontmatter `model:` field and `--agents` JSON config — agents now accept the same model values as `--model`
2567- Fixed MCP OAuth authentication hanging when the callback port is already in use
2568- Fixed MCP OAuth refresh never prompting for re-auth after the refresh token expires, for OAuth servers that return errors with HTTP 200 (e.g. Slack)
2569- Fixed voice mode silently failing on the macOS native binary for users whose terminal had never been granted microphone permission — the binary now includes the `audio-input` entitlement so macOS prompts correctly
2570- Fixed `SessionEnd` hooks being killed after 1.5 s on exit regardless of `hook.timeout` — now configurable via `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSIONEND_HOOKS_TIMEOUT_MS`
2571- Fixed `/plugin install` failing inside the REPL for marketplace plugins with local sources
2572- Fixed marketplace update not syncing git submodules — plugin sources in submodules no longer break after update

2578- [VSCode] Improved scroll wheel responsiveness in the integrated terminal with terminal-aware acceleration
2579
2580## 2.1.73
2581
2582- Added `modelOverrides` setting to map model picker entries to custom provider model IDs (e.g. Bedrock inference profile ARNs)
2583- Added actionable guidance when OAuth login or connectivity checks fail due to SSL certificate errors (corporate proxies, `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS`)
2584- Fixed freezes and 100% CPU loops triggered by permission prompts for complex bash commands
2585- Fixed a deadlock that could freeze Claude Code when many skill files changed at once (e.g. during `git pull` in a repo with a large `.claude/skills/` directory)
2586- Fixed Bash tool output being lost when running multiple Claude Code sessions in the same project directory
2587- Fixed subagents with `model: opus`/`sonnet`/`haiku` being silently downgraded to older model versions on Bedrock, Vertex, and Microsoft Foundry

2601- Improved clipboard image pasting performance on macOS
2602- Improved `/effort` to work while Claude is responding, matching `/model` behavior
2603- Improved voice mode to automatically retry transient connection failures during rapid push-to-talk re-press
2604- Improved the Remote Control spawn mode selection prompt with better context
2605- Changed default Opus model on Bedrock, Vertex, and Microsoft Foundry to Opus 4.6 (was Opus 4.1)
2606- Deprecated `/output-style` command — use `/config` instead. Output style is now fixed at session start for better prompt caching
2607- VSCode: Fixed HTTP 400 errors for users behind proxies or on Bedrock/Vertex with Claude 4.5 models
2608
2609## 2.1.72
2610
2611- Fixed tool search to activate even with `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` as long as `ENABLE_TOOL_SEARCH` is set.
2612- Added `w` key in `/copy` to write the focused selection directly to a file, bypassing the clipboard (useful over SSH)

2614- Added `ExitWorktree` tool to leave an `EnterWorktree` session
2615- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_CRON` environment variable to immediately stop scheduled cron jobs mid-session
2616- Added `lsof`, `pgrep`, `tput`, `ss`, `fd`, and `fdfind` to the bash auto-approval allowlist, reducing permission prompts for common read-only operations
2617- Restored the `model` parameter on the Agent tool for per-invocation model overrides
2618- Simplified effort levels to low/medium/high (removed max) with new symbols (○ ◐ ●) and a brief notification instead of a persistent icon. Use `/effort auto` to reset to default
2619- Improved `/config` — Escape now cancels changes, Enter saves and closes, Space toggles settings
2620- Improved up-arrow history to show current session's messages first when running multiple concurrent sessions
2621- Improved voice input transcription accuracy for repo names and common dev terms (regex, OAuth, JSON)
2622- Improved bash command parsing by switching to a native module — faster initialization and no memory leak
2623- Reduced bundle size by ~510 KB
2624- Changed CLAUDE.md HTML comments (`<!-- ... -->`) to be hidden from Claude when auto-injected. Comments remain visible when read with the Read tool
2625- Fixed slow exits when background tasks or hooks were slow to respond
2626- Fixed agent task progress stuck on "Initializing…"
2627- Fixed skill hooks firing twice per event when a hooks-enabled skill is invoked by the model
2628- Fixed several voice mode issues: occasional input lag, false "No speech detected" errors after releasing push-to-talk, and stale transcripts re-filling the prompt after submission
2629- Fixed `--continue` not resuming from the most recent point after `--compact`
2630- Fixed bash security parsing edge cases
2631- Added support for marketplace git URLs without `.git` suffix (Azure DevOps, AWS CodeCommit)
2632- Improved marketplace clone failure messages to show diagnostic info even when git produces no stderr
2633- Fixed several plugin issues: installation failing on Windows with `EEXIST` error in OneDrive folders, marketplace blocking user-scope installs when a project-scope install exists, `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_CACHE_DIR` creating literal `~` directories, and `plugin.json` with marketplace-only fields failing to load
2634- Fixed feedback survey appearing too frequently in long sessions
2635- Fixed `--effort` CLI flag being reset by unrelated settings writes on startup
2636- Fixed backgrounded Ctrl+B queries losing their transcript or corrupting the new conversation after `/clear`

2639- Fixed `/model` not displaying results when run while Claude is working
2640- Fixed digit keys selecting menu options instead of typing in plan mode permission prompt's text input
2641- Fixed sandbox permission issues: certain file write operations incorrectly allowed without prompting, and output redirections to allowlisted directories (like `/tmp/claude/`) prompting unnecessarily
2642- Improved CPU utilization in long sessions
2643- Fixed prompt cache invalidation in SDK `query()` calls, reducing input token costs up to 12x
2644- Fixed Escape key becoming unresponsive after cancelling a query
2645- Fixed double Ctrl+C not exiting when background agents or tasks are running
2646- Fixed team agents to inherit the leader's model

2648- Fixed several hooks issues: `transcript_path` pointing to the wrong directory for resumed/forked sessions, agent `prompt` being silently deleted from settings.json on every settings write, PostToolUse block reason displaying twice, async hooks not receiving stdin with bash `read -r`, and validation error message showing an example that fails validation
2649- Fixed session crashes in Desktop/SDK when Read returned files containing U+2028/U+2029 characters
2650- Fixed terminal title being cleared on exit even when `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_TERMINAL_TITLE` was set
2651- Fixed several permission rule matching issues: wildcard rules not matching commands with heredocs, embedded newlines, or no arguments; `sandbox.excludedCommands` failing with env var prefixes; "always allow" suggesting overly broad prefixes for nested CLI tools; and deny rules not applying to all command forms
2652- Fixed oversized and truncated images from Bash data-URL output
2653- Fixed a crash when resuming sessions that contained Bedrock API errors
2654- Fixed intermittent "expected boolean, received string" validation errors on Edit, Bash, and Grep tool inputs
2655- Fixed multi-line session titles when forking from a conversation whose first message contained newlines
2656- Fixed queued messages not showing attached images, and images being lost when pressing ↑ to edit a queued message

2664
2665- Added `/loop` command to run a prompt or slash command on a recurring interval (e.g. `/loop 5m check the deploy`)
2666- Added cron scheduling tools for recurring prompts within a session
2667- 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
2668- Added `fmt`, `comm`, `cmp`, `numfmt`, `expr`, `test`, `printf`, `getconf`, `seq`, `tsort`, and `pr` to the bash auto-approval allowlist
2669- Fixed stdin freeze in long-running sessions where keystrokes stop being processed but the process stays alive
2670- Fixed a 5–8 second startup freeze for users with voice mode enabled, caused by CoreAudio initialization blocking the main thread after system wake
2671- Fixed startup UI freeze when many claude.ai proxy connectors refresh an expired OAuth token simultaneously
2672- Fixed forked conversations (`/fork`) sharing the same plan file, which caused plan edits in one fork to overwrite the other
2673- Fixed the Read tool putting oversized images into context when image processing failed, breaking subsequent turns in long image-heavy sessions
2674- Fixed false-positive permission prompts for compound bash commands containing heredoc commit messages
2675- Fixed plugin installations being lost when running multiple Claude Code instances
2676- Fixed claude.ai connectors failing to reconnect after OAuth token refresh
2677- Fixed claude.ai MCP connector startup notifications appearing for every org-configured connector instead of only previously connected ones

2679- Fixed duplicate output in Bash tool error messages when commands exit with non-zero status
2680- Fixed Chrome extension auto-detection getting permanently stuck on "not installed" after running on a machine without local Chrome
2681- Fixed `/plugin marketplace update` failing with merge conflicts when the marketplace is pinned to a branch/tag ref
2682- Fixed `/plugin marketplace add owner/repo@ref` incorrectly parsing `@` — previously only `#` worked as a ref separator, causing undiagnosable errors with `strictKnownMarketplaces`
2683- Fixed duplicate entries in `/permissions` Workspace tab when the same directory is added with and without a trailing slash
2684- Fixed `--print` hanging forever when team agents are configured — the exit loop no longer waits on long-lived `in_process_teammate` tasks
2685- Fixed "❯ Tool loaded." appearing in the REPL after every `ToolSearch` call
2686- Fixed prompting for `cd <cwd> && git ...` on Windows when the model uses a mingw-style path
2687- Improved startup time by deferring native image processor loading to first use
2688- Improved bridge session reconnection to complete within seconds after laptop wake from sleep, instead of waiting up to 10 minutes
2689- 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
2690- 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.
2691- Updated `/debug` to toggle debug logging on mid-session, since debug logs are no longer written by default
2692- Removed startup notification noise for unauthenticated org-registered claude.ai connectors
2693
2694## 2.1.70
2695
2696- 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
2697- 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
2698- 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
2699- Fixed prompt-cache bust when an MCP server with `instructions` connects after the first turn
2700- Fixed Enter inserting a newline instead of submitting when typing over a slow SSH connection
2701- Fixed clipboard corrupting non-ASCII text (CJK, emoji) on Windows/WSL by using PowerShell `Set-Clipboard`

2707- Fixed plugins showing as inaccurately installed in `/plugin`
2708- Fixed plugins showing "not found in marketplace" errors on fresh startup by auto-refreshing after marketplace installation
2709- Fixed `/security-review` command failing with `unknown option merge-base` on older git versions
2710- 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
2711- Fixed a performance regression in the `AskUserQuestion` preview dialog that re-ran markdown rendering on every keystroke in the notes input
2712- Fixed feature flags read during early startup never refreshing their disk cache, causing stale values to persist across sessions
2713- Fixed `permissions.defaultMode` settings values other than `acceptEdits` or `plan` being applied in Claude Code Remote environments — they are now ignored
2714- Fixed skill listing being re-injected on every `--resume` (~600 tokens saved per resume)
2715- Fixed teleport marker not rendering in VS Code teleported sessions
2716- Improved error message when microphone captures silence to distinguish from "no speech detected"
2717- Improved compaction to preserve images in the summarizer request, allowing prompt cache reuse for faster and cheaper compaction
2718- Improved `/rename` to work while Claude is processing, instead of being silently queued
2719- Reduced prompt input re-renders during turns by ~74%
2720- Reduced startup memory by ~426KB for users without custom CA certificates
2721- 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.
2722- [VSCode] Added spark icon in VS Code activity bar that lists all Claude Code sessions, with sessions opening as full editors
2723- [VSCode] Added full markdown document view for plans in VS Code, with support for adding comments to provide feedback
2724- [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
2725
2726## 2.1.69
2727
2728- Added the `/claude-api` skill for building applications with the Claude API and Anthropic SDK
2729- Added Ctrl+U on an empty bash prompt (`!`) to exit bash mode, matching `escape` and `backspace`
2730- Added numeric keypad support for selecting options in Claude's interview questions (previously only the number row above QWERTY worked)
2731- 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
2732- Added Voice STT support for 10 new languages (20 total) — Russian, Polish, Turkish, Dutch, Ukrainian, Greek, Czech, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian
2733- Added effort level display (e.g., "with low effort") to the logo and spinner, making it easier to see which effort setting is active
2734- Added agent name display in terminal title when using `claude --agent`
2735- 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`
2736- 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
2737- Added `/reload-plugins` command to activate pending plugin changes without restarting
2738- Added a one-time startup prompt suggesting Claude Code Desktop on macOS and Windows (max 3 showings, dismissible)
2739- Added `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}` variable for skills to reference their own directory in SKILL.md content
2740- Added `InstructionsLoaded` hook event that fires when CLAUDE.md or `.claude/rules/*.md` files are loaded into context
2741- Added `agent_id` (for subagents) and `agent_type` (for subagents and `--agent`) to hook events
2742- Added `worktree` field to status line hook commands with name, path, branch, and original repo directory when running in a `--worktree` session
2743- Added `pluginTrustMessage` in managed settings to append organization-specific context to the plugin trust warning shown before installation
2744- Added policy limit fetching (e.g., remote control restrictions) for Team plan OAuth users, not just Enterprise
2745- Added `pathPattern` to `strictKnownMarketplaces` for regex-matching file/directory marketplace sources alongside `hostPattern` restrictions
2746- Added plugin source type `git-subdir` to point to a subdirectory within a git repo
2747- Added `oauth.authServerMetadataUrl` config option for MCP servers to specify a custom OAuth metadata discovery URL when standard discovery fails
2748- Fixed a security issue where nested skill discovery could load skills from gitignored directories like `node_modules`
2749- Fixed trust dialog silently enabling all `.mcp.json` servers on first run. You'll now see the per-server approval dialog as expected
2750- Fixed `claude remote-control` crashing immediately on npm installs with "bad option: --sdk-url" (anthropics/claude-code#28334)
2751- Fixed `--model claude-opus-4-0` and `--model claude-opus-4-1` resolving to deprecated Opus versions instead of current
2752- 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.
2753- 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)
2754- Fixed ghost dotfiles (`.bashrc`, `HEAD`, etc.) appearing as untracked files in the working directory after sandboxed Bash commands on Linux
2755- Fixed Shift+Enter printing `[27;2;13~` instead of inserting a newline in Ghostty over SSH
2756- Fixed stash (Ctrl+S) being cleared when submitting a message while Claude is working
2757- Fixed ctrl+o (transcript toggle) freezing for many seconds in long sessions with lots of file edits
2758- Fixed plan mode feedback input not supporting multi-line text entry (backslash+Enter and Shift+Enter now insert newlines)
2759- Fixed cursor not moving down into blank lines at the top of the input box
2760- Fixed `/stats` crash when transcript files contain entries with missing or malformed timestamps
2761- 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)
2762- Fixed `--setting-sources user` not blocking dynamically discovered project skills
2763- Fixed duplicate CLAUDE.md, slash commands, agents, and rules when running from a worktree nested inside its main repo (e.g. `claude -w`)
2764- Fixed plugin Stop/SessionEnd/etc hooks not firing after any `/plugin` operation
2765- Fixed plugin hooks being silently dropped when two plugins use the same `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/...` command template

2771- Fixed `/compact` summary rendering as a user bubble in SDK consumers (Claude Code Remote web UI, VSCode extension)
2772- Fixed voice space bar getting stuck after a failed voice activation (module loading race, cold GrowthBook)
2773- Fixed worktree file copy on Windows
2774- Fixed global `.claude` folder detection on Windows
2775- Fixed symlink bypass where writing new files through a symlinked parent directory could escape the working directory in `acceptEdits` mode
2776- 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
2777- 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
2778- Fixed multi-GB memory spike when committing with large untracked binary files in the working tree
2779- 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.
2780- Fixed Android app crash when running local slash commands (`/voice`, `/cost`) in Remote Control sessions
2781- Fixed a memory leak where old message array versions accumulated in React Compiler `memoCache` over long sessions
2782- Fixed a memory leak where REPL render scopes accumulated over long sessions (~35MB over 1000 turns)
2783- 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
2784- Fixed a memory leak in interactive mode where hook events could accumulate unboundedly during long sessions
2785- Fixed hang when `--mcp-config` points to a corrupted file
2786- Fixed slow startup when many skills/plugins are installed
2787- Fixed `cd <outside-dir> && <cmd>` permission prompt to surface the chained command instead of only showing "Yes, allow reading from <dir>/"
2788- Fixed conditional `.claude/rules/*.md` files (with `paths:` frontmatter) and nested CLAUDE.md files not loading in print mode (`claude -p`)
2789- Fixed `/clear` not fully clearing all session caches, reducing memory retention in long sessions
2790- Fixed terminal flicker caused by animated elements at the scrollback boundary
2791- Fixed UI frame drops on macOS when using MCP servers with OAuth (regression from 2.1.x)
2792- Fixed occasional frame stalls during typing caused by synchronous debug log flushes
2793- Fixed `TeammateIdle` and `TaskCompleted` hooks to support `{"continue": false, "stopReason": "..."}` to stop the teammate, matching `Stop` hook behavior
2794- Fixed `WorktreeCreate` and `WorktreeRemove` plugin hooks being silently ignored
2795- Fixed skill descriptions with colons (e.g., "Triggers include: X, Y, Z") failing to load from SKILL.md frontmatter
2796- Fixed project skills without a `description:` frontmatter field not appearing in Claude's available skills list
2797- Fixed `/context` showing identical token counts for all MCP tools from a server
2798- Fixed literal `nul` file creation on Windows when the model uses CMD-style `2>nul` redirection in Git Bash
2799- Fixed extra blank lines appearing below each tool call in the expanded subagent transcript view (Ctrl+O)
2800- Fixed Tab/arrow keys not cycling Settings tabs when `/config` search box is focused but empty
2801- Fixed service key OAuth sessions (CCR containers) spamming `[ERROR]` logs with 403s from profile-scoped endpoints
2802- Fixed inconsistent color for "Remote Control active" status indicator
2803- Fixed Voice waveform cursor covering the first suffix letter when dictating mid-input
2804- Fixed Voice input showing all 5 spaces during warmup instead of capping at ~2 (aligning with the "keep holding…" hint)
2805- Improved spinner performance by isolating the 50ms animation loop from the surrounding shell, reducing render and CPU overhead during turns
2806- Improved UI rendering performance in native binaries with React Compiler
2807- Improved `--worktree` startup by eliminating a git subprocess on the startup path
2808- Improved macOS startup by eliminating redundant settings-file reloads when managed settings resolve
2809- Improved macOS startup for Claude.ai enterprise/team users by skipping an unnecessary keychain lookup
2810- Improved MCP `-p` startup by pipelining claude.ai config fetch with local connections and using a concurrency pool instead of sequential batching
2811- Improved voice startup by removing imperceptible warmup pulse animations that were causing re-render stutter
2812- 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.
2813- Improved memory usage in long sessions by stabilizing `onSubmit` across message updates
2814- Improved LSP tool rendering and memory context building to no longer read entire files
2815- Improved session upload and memory sync to avoid reading large files into memory before size/binary checks
2816- Improved file operation performance by avoiding reading file contents for existence checks (6 sites)
2817- Improved documentation to clarify that `--append-system-prompt-file` and `--system-prompt-file` work in interactive mode (the docs previously said print mode only)
2818- Reduced baseline memory by ~16MB by deferring Yoga WASM preloading
2819- Reduced memory footprint for SDK and CCR sessions using stream-json output
2820- Reduced memory usage when resuming large sessions (including compacted history)
2821- Reduced token usage on multi-agent tasks with more concise subagent final reports
2822- Changed Sonnet 4.5 users on Pro/Max/Team Premium to be automatically migrated to Sonnet 4.6
2823- Changed the `/resume` picker to show your most recent prompt instead of the first one. This also resolves some titles appearing as `(session)`.
2824- Changed claude.ai MCP connector failures to show a notification instead of silently disappearing from the tool list
2825- Changed example command suggestions to be generated deterministically instead of calling Haiku
2826- Changed resuming after compaction to no longer produce a preamble recap before continuing
2827- [SDK] Changed task creation to no longer require the `activeForm` field — the spinner falls back to the task subject
2828- [VSCode] Added compaction display as a collapsible "Compacted chat" card with the summary inside
2829- [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
2830- [VSCode] Fixed RTL text (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian) rendering reversed in the chat panel (regression in v2.1.63)
2831
2832## 2.1.68
2833
2834- 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`
2835- Re-introduced the "ultrathink" keyword to enable high effort for the next turn
2836- 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
2837
2838## 2.1.66
2839
2840- Reduced spurious error logging
2841
2842## 2.1.63

2845- Fixed local slash command output like /cost appearing as user-sent messages instead of system messages in the UI
2846- Project configs & auto memory now shared across git worktrees of the same repository
2847- Added `ENABLE_CLAUDEAI_MCP_SERVERS=false` env var to opt out from making claude.ai MCP servers available
2848- Improved `/model` command to show the currently active model in the slash command menu
2849- Added HTTP hooks, which can POST JSON to a URL and receive JSON instead of running a shell command
2850- Fixed listener leak in bridge polling loop
2851- Fixed listener leak in MCP OAuth flow cleanup
2852- 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.
2853- Fixed memory leak when navigating hooks configuration menu
2854- Fixed listener leak in interactive permission handler during auto-approvals
2855- Fixed file count cache ignoring glob ignore patterns
2856- Fixed memory leak in bash command prefix cache

2859- Fixed WebSocket listener leak on transport reconnect
2860- Fixed memory leak in git root detection cache that could cause unbounded growth in long-running sessions
2861- Fixed memory leak in JSON parsing cache that grew unbounded over long sessions
2862- VSCode: Fixed remote sessions not appearing in conversation history
2863- 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.
2864- Fixed memory leak where long-running teammates retained all messages in AppState even after conversation compaction
2865- Fixed a memory leak where MCP server fetch caches were not cleared on disconnect, causing growing memory usage with servers that reconnect frequently
2866- Improved memory usage in long sessions with subagents by stripping heavy progress message payloads during context compaction
2867- 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.
2868- VSCode: Added session rename and remove actions to the sessions list
2869- Fixed `/clear` not resetting cached skills, which could cause stale skill content to persist in the new conversation
2870
2871## 2.1.62
2872
2873- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates
2874
2875## 2.1.61
2876
2877- Fixed concurrent writes corrupting config file on Windows
2878
2879## 2.1.59
2880
2881- Claude automatically saves useful context to auto-memory. Manage with /memory
2882- Added `/copy` command to show an interactive picker when code blocks are present, allowing selection of individual code blocks or the full response.
2883- 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
2884- Improved ordering of short task lists
2885- Improved memory usage in multi-agent sessions by releasing completed subagent task state
2886- Fixed MCP OAuth token refresh race condition when running multiple Claude Code instances simultaneously
2887- Fixed shell commands not showing a clear error message when the working directory has been deleted
2888- Fixed config file corruption that could wipe authentication when multiple Claude Code instances ran simultaneously
2889

2893
2894## 2.1.56
2895
2896- VS Code: Fixed another cause of "command 'claude-vscode.editor.openLast' not found" crashes
2897
2898## 2.1.55
2899
2900- Fixed BashTool failing on Windows with EINVAL error
2901
2902## 2.1.53
2903
2904- Fixed a UI flicker where user input would briefly disappear after submission before the message rendered
2905- Fixed bulk agent kill (ctrl+f) to send a single aggregate notification instead of one per agent, and to properly clear the command queue
2906- Fixed graceful shutdown sometimes leaving stale sessions when using Remote Control by parallelizing teardown network calls
2907- Fixed `--worktree` sometimes being ignored on first launch
2908- Fixed a panic ("switch on corrupted value") on Windows
2909- Fixed a crash that could occur when spawning many processes on Windows

2912
2913## 2.1.52
2914
2915- VS Code: Fixed extension crash on Windows ("command 'claude-vscode.editor.openLast' not found")
2916
2917## 2.1.51
2918
2919- Added `claude remote-control` subcommand for external builds, enabling local environment serving for all users.
2920- Updated plugin marketplace default git timeout from 30s to 120s and added `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS` to configure.
2921- Added support for custom npm registries and specific version pinning when installing plugins from npm sources
2922- 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`.
2923- Fixed a security issue where `statusLine` and `fileSuggestion` hook commands could execute without workspace trust acceptance in interactive mode.
2924- Tool results larger than 50K characters are now persisted to disk (previously 100K). This reduces context window usage and improves conversation longevity.
2925- 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.
2926- 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.
2927- Fixed slash command autocomplete crashing when a plugin's SKILL.md description is a YAML array or other non-string type
2928- 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.
2929- Managed settings can now be set via macOS plist or Windows Registry. Learn more at https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings#settings-files
2930
2931## 2.1.50
2932
2933- Added support for `startupTimeout` configuration for LSP servers
2934- Added `WorktreeCreate` and `WorktreeRemove` hook events, enabling custom VCS setup and teardown when agent worktree isolation creates or removes worktrees.
2935- 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.
2936- Linux: Fixed native modules not loading on systems with glibc older than 2.30 (e.g., RHEL 8)
2937- Fixed memory leak in agent teams where completed teammate tasks were never garbage collected from session state
2938- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE` to fully strip down skills, session memory, custom agents, and CLAUDE.md token counting
2939- Fixed `/mcp reconnect` freezing the CLI when given a server name that doesn't exist
2940- Fixed memory leak where completed task state objects were never removed from AppState
2941- Added support for `isolation: worktree` in agent definitions, allowing agents to declaratively run in isolated git worktrees.
2942- `CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE` mode now also disables MCP tools, attachments, hooks, and CLAUDE.md file loading for a fully minimal experience.
2943- Fixed bug where MCP tools were not discovered when tool search is enabled and a prompt is passed in as a launch argument
2944- Improved memory usage during long sessions by clearing internal caches after compaction
2945- Added `claude agents` CLI command to list all configured agents
2946- Improved memory usage during long sessions by clearing large tool results after they have been processed
2947- Fixed a memory leak where LSP diagnostic data was never cleaned up after delivery, causing unbounded memory growth in long sessions

2949- Improved startup performance for headless mode (`-p` flag) by deferring Yoga WASM and UI component imports
2950- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates
2951- Fixed unbounded memory growth in long sessions by capping file history snapshots
2952- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_1M_CONTEXT` environment variable to disable 1M context window support
2953- Opus 4.6 (fast mode) now includes the full 1M context window
2954- VSCode: Added `/extra-usage` command support in VS Code sessions
2955- Fixed memory leak where TaskOutput retained recent lines after cleanup
2956- Fixed memory leak in CircularBuffer where cleared items were retained in the backing array
2957- Fixed memory leak in shell command execution where ChildProcess and AbortController references were retained after cleanup
2958
2959## 2.1.49
2960
2961- Improved MCP OAuth authentication with step-up auth support and discovery caching, reducing redundant network requests during server connections
2962- Added `--worktree` (`-w`) flag to start Claude in an isolated git worktree
2963- Subagents support `isolation: "worktree"` for working in a temporary git worktree
2964- Added Ctrl+F keybinding to kill background agents (two-press confirmation)
2965- Agent definitions support `background: true` to always run as a background task
2966- Plugins can ship `settings.json` for default configuration
2967- Fixed file-not-found errors to suggest corrected paths when the model drops the repo folder
2968- Fixed Ctrl+C and ESC being silently ignored when background agents are running and the main thread is idle. Pressing twice within 3 seconds now kills all background agents.
2969- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates.
2970- Fixed `plugin enable` and `plugin disable` to auto-detect the correct scope when `--scope` is not specified, instead of always defaulting to user scope
2971- Simple mode (`CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE`) now includes the file edit tool in addition to the Bash tool, allowing direct file editing in simple mode.
2972- Permission suggestions are now populated when safety checks trigger an ask response, enabling SDK consumers to display permission options
2973- Sonnet 4.5 with 1M context is being removed from the Max plan in favor of our frontier Sonnet 4.6 model, which now has 1M context. Please switch in /model.
2974- Fixed verbose mode not updating thinking block display when toggled via `/config` — memo comparators now correctly detect verbose changes
2975- Fixed unbounded WASM memory growth during long sessions by periodically resetting the tree-sitter parser
2976- Fixed potential rendering issues caused by stale yoga layout references
2977- Improved performance in non-interactive mode (`-p`) by skipping unnecessary API calls during startup

2979- Fixed unbounded memory growth during long-running sessions caused by Yoga WASM linear memory never shrinking
2980- SDK model info now includes `supportsEffort`, `supportedEffortLevels`, and `supportsAdaptiveThinking` fields so consumers can discover model capabilities.
2981- Added `ConfigChange` hook event that fires when configuration files change during a session, enabling enterprise security auditing and optional blocking of settings changes.
2982- Improved startup performance by caching MCP auth failures to avoid redundant connection attempts
2983- Improved startup performance by reducing HTTP calls for analytics token counting
2984- Improved startup performance by batching MCP tool token counting into a single API call
2985- Fixed `disableAllHooks` setting to respect managed settings hierarchy — non-managed settings can no longer disable managed hooks set by policy (#26637)
2986- 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.
2987- 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
2988
2989## 2.1.47
2990
2991- Fixed FileWriteTool line counting to preserve intentional trailing blank lines instead of stripping them with `trimEnd()`.
2992- 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.
2993- 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.
2994- 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.
2995- 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)
2996- Improved memory usage in long-running sessions by releasing API stream buffers, agent context, and skill state after use
2997- Improved startup performance by deferring SessionStart hook execution, reducing time-to-interactive by ~500ms.
2998- Fixed an issue where bash tool output was silently discarded on Windows when using MSYS2 or Cygwin shells.
2999- Improved performance of `@` file mentions - file suggestions now appear faster by pre-warming the index on startup and using session-based caching with background refresh.
3000- Improved memory usage by trimming agent task message history after tasks complete
3001- Improved memory usage during long agent sessions by eliminating O(n²) message accumulation in progress updates
3002- Fixed the bash permission classifier to validate that returned match descriptions correspond to actual input rules, preventing hallucinated descriptions from incorrectly granting permissions
3003- Fixed user-defined agents only loading one file on NFS/FUSE filesystems that report zero inodes (anthropics/claude-code#26044)
3004- Fixed plugin agent skills silently failing to load when referenced by bare name instead of fully-qualified plugin name (anthropics/claude-code#25834)
3005- Search patterns in collapsed tool results are now displayed in quotes for clarity
3006- Windows: Fixed CWD tracking temp files never being cleaned up, causing them to accumulate indefinitely (anthropics/claude-code#17600)
3007- Use `ctrl+f` to kill all background agents instead of double-pressing ESC. Background agents now continue running when you press ESC to cancel the main thread, giving you more control over agent lifecycle.
3008- 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.
3009- Simplified teammate navigation to use only Shift+Down (with wrapping) instead of both Shift+Up and Shift+Down.
3010- 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.
3011- Added `last_assistant_message` field to Stop and SubagentStop hook inputs, providing the final assistant response text so hooks can access it without parsing transcript files.
3012- Fixed custom session titles set via `/rename` being lost after resuming a conversation (anthropics/claude-code#23610)
3013- Fixed collapsed read/search hint text overflowing on narrow terminals by truncating from the start.
3014- Fixed an issue where bash commands with backslash-newline continuation lines (e.g., long commands split across multiple lines with `\`) would produce spurious empty arguments, potentially breaking command execution.
3015- Fixed built-in slash commands (`/help`, `/model`, `/compact`, etc.) being hidden from the autocomplete dropdown when many user skills are installed (anthropics/claude-code#22020)
3016- Fixed MCP servers not appearing in the MCP Management Dialog after deferred loading
3017- Fixed session name persisting in status bar after `/clear` command (anthropics/claude-code#26082)
3018- Fixed crash when a skill's `name` or `description` in SKILL.md frontmatter is a bare number (e.g., `name: 3000`) — the value is now properly coerced to a string (anthropics/claude-code#25837)
3019- Fixed /resume silently dropping sessions when the first message exceeds 16KB or uses array-format content (anthropics/claude-code#25721)
3020- Added `chat:newline` keybinding action for configurable multi-line input (anthropics/claude-code#26075)
3021- Added `added_dirs` to the statusline JSON `workspace` section, exposing directories added via `/add-dir` to external scripts (anthropics/claude-code#26096)
3022- Fixed `claude doctor` misclassifying mise and asdf-managed installations as native installs (anthropics/claude-code#26033)
