2
3## 2.1.206
4
5- Added directory path suggestions to `/cd`, matching `/add-dir` behavior
6- Added a `/doctor` check that proposes trimming checked-in `CLAUDE.md` files by cutting content Claude could derive from the codebase
7- `/commit-push-pr` now auto-allows `git push` to the repo's configured push remote (`remote.pushDefault`, or the sole remote when only one is configured) in addition to `origin`
8- Gateway: `/login` now supports Anthropic-operated public gateway endpoints
9- `EnterWorktree` now asks for confirmation before entering a git worktree outside the project's `.claude/worktrees/` directory
10- Background agents now upgrade to a new version in the background right after a Claude Code update, instead of paying a slow stale-session upgrade when you attach
11- Fixed an expired login failing every model with a misleading "There's an issue with the selected model" error instead of prompting to run `/login`
12- Fixed `claude --resume` and `--continue` not responding to keyboard input on startup
13- Fixed MCP servers configured via `--mcp-config` or `.mcp.json` ignoring a per-server `request_timeout_ms`, which caused long-running MCP tool calls to time out at the 60s default in fresh sessions
14- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_EXTRA_BODY` being silently ignored by `claude agents` / `--bg` background workers; the shell-exported override now follows the dispatching session
15- Fixed OAuth MCP servers requiring manual re-authentication after a single failed token refresh
16- Fixed `--permission-prompt-tool` pointing at an MCP server crashing with "MCP tool not found" on cold start before the server finishes connecting
17- Fixed `/model` picker rows printing a price for a different model than the row named, and stopped quoting first-party list prices on providers that don't bill them
18- Fixed server-provided model rows being misplaced in the `/model` picker when an entitlement or allowlist restriction drops the row they were positioned against
19- Fixed desktop sessions getting stuck showing "running" after a slash command was sent mid-turn
20- Fixed keyboard input being ignored in the agents view when a setup prompt appeared before a bare `claude --resume` on Windows
21- Fixed `claude rm` leaving the removed job in the daemon roster, causing the row to reappear in `claude agents`
22- Fixed `/remote-control` showing "Unknown command" when logged out — it now explains how to sign in
23- Fixed left arrow not stepping back out of a phase or agent in the workflow detail view
24- Fixed `/status` listing the same broken-install warning twice
25- Fixed false "disused plugin" tips and skewed disuse telemetry for LSP plugins
26- Fixed `/doctor`'s update check to compare Homebrew installs against their cask's channel instead of the settings channel
27- Fixed the fullscreen jump-to-bottom pill suggesting Ctrl+End on macOS, not showing rebound chords, and wrapping over the transcript
28- Bedrock: fixed a multi-minute startup hang when using an `awsCredentialExport` helper on networks with restricted egress
29- Improved `/code-review` findings quality on claude-opus-4-8 across all effort levels
30- Improved agents view: status column now uses full terminal width instead of truncating at 64 characters
31- Changed agents view: Ctrl+X now permanently removes a completed session, and sessions no longer render twice; deleted background jobs stay deleted
32
33## 2.1.205
34
35- Added an auto mode rule that blocks tampering with session transcript files
36- Fixed `--json-schema` silently producing unstructured output when the schema was invalid, and schemas using the `format` keyword being rejected
37- Fixed a message sent while Claude was working being silently lost when the turn ended at the `--max-turns` limit
38- Fixed Windows worktree removal deleting files outside the worktree when an NTFS junction or directory symlink existed inside it
39- Fixed background agents staying shown as "failed" or "completed" in the agent list after being resumed with `SendMessage`
40- Fixed background jobs flipping from "needs input" back to "working" in the agent list when the agent's turn contained no readable text
41- Fixed `claude attach` erroring when a background agent was mid-upgrade restart instead of waiting for it to come back
42- Fixed session-to-PR linking missing a PR created in a Bash call whose output exceeded the 30K inline limit
43- Fixed `claude mcp add-from-claude-desktop` getting stuck when a server name contains unsupported characters; invalid names are now reported and remaining servers still import
44- Fixed a plugin LSP server that fails to initialize preventing a valid LSP server from another plugin handling the same file extension
45- Fixed a Windows crash when the directory Claude was launched from is deleted, locked, or unmounted while a command is running
46- Fixed a crash when a file watcher was closed while a directory scan was still in flight
47- Fixed project verify skills being rewritten on every session instead of only when a documented command changed
48- Fixed the agent view rendering one line too high and clipping its header when the job list slightly overflowed the screen
49- Fixed background tasks in the web and mobile Remote Control panels showing stale "Running" status by forwarding full task state on every membership change
50- Improved auto mode to ask before running `rm -rf` on a variable it can't resolve from context
51- Auto-update binary downloads now stream to disk instead of buffering in memory, cutting the updater's peak memory usage by roughly 400 MB
52- Background task notifications now explicitly state that no human input has occurred, preventing fabricated in-transcript approvals from being acted on
53- Improved agent view: sessions that edit, merge, comment on, or push to an existing PR now link it in `claude agents`
54- Improved agent view: rows now show a colored state word and a classifier-written headline instead of raw tool call text, and the peek opens with full status including the exact ask for blocked sessions
55- `/doctor` is now a full setup checkup that can diagnose and fix issues; `/checkup` is its alias
56- Reserved the "Claude Browser" MCP server name (alongside "Claude Preview") ahead of the Claude Desktop pane rename; user-configured MCP servers can no longer register under either name
57- Fixed Cowork VM-mode local-agent sessions failing to start with "Not logged in · Please run /login" on CLI 2.1.203+
58
59## 2.1.204
60
61- Fixed hook events not streaming during SessionStart hooks in headless sessions, which could cause remote workers to be idle-reaped mid-hook
62
63## 2.1.203
64
65- Added a warning when your login is about to expire, so you can re-authenticate before background sessions are interrupted
66- Added a grey ⏸ badge to the footer when in manual permission mode, making the active mode always visible
67- Added the session's additional working directories to MCP `roots/list`, with `notifications/roots/list_changed` sent when the set changes
68- 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)
69- Fixed background sessions becoming permanently unresponsive to attach, replies, and stop when the daemon's session token went stale — the session now recovers automatically
70- Fixed returning to `claude agents` silently stopping running subagents and re-running the prompt from scratch — their work now carries over
71- 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
72- Fixed background agents inheriting a stale `PATH` from the daemon instead of the dispatching shell, causing missing tools on Windows
73- 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
74- Fixed Bash failing with "argument list too long" in repos with many git worktrees
75- Fixed worktree-isolated subagents sometimes running shell commands in the parent checkout instead of their own worktree
76- Fixed worktree creation rejecting nested repositories in multi-repo workspaces, leaving background sessions unable to isolate and edit
77- 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
78- Fixed a background daemon auto-upgrade failure silently killing all running background sessions
79- Fixed `TaskStop` and `TaskOutput` failing to find background agents spawned by another agent — errors now list running agents by id and description
80- Fixed the `claude agents` composer discarding your typed message when a slash command isn't available there
81- Fixed the agent list crashing when opening a stopped session whose conversation was already open in another session
82- Fixed background sessions showing "Needs input" in the agent list after the question was already answered
83- Fixed background agent startup failures showing only "exit_with_message" instead of the actual error
84- Fixed background sessions ignoring `effortLevel` changes in settings.json when forked through the daemon
85- Fixed attached background sessions ignoring `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_MOUSE` and `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_MOUSE_CLICKS` opt-outs
86- Fixed `/exit` incorrectly warning about running background agents after all named agents had completed
87- Fixed background sessions started from a non-git directory unable to edit files when a `WorktreeCreate` hook was configured
88- Fixed the `@` directory picker in `claude agents` not showing registered git worktrees
89- Fixed background task output on Windows being permanently replaced by an empty file after `/clear`
90- Fixed content jumping when scrolling up through long transcript history
91- Fixed the terminal flickering and jumping while typing in bash mode when a shell-history suggestion was shown
92- Fixed literal `^[[I` / `^[[O` escape codes being printed when reattaching to a background session
93- Fixed LSP-only plugins being incorrectly flagged for disuse when their language servers deliver diagnostics or answer navigation requests
94- Improved responsiveness while long responses stream: live-preview updates no longer re-render the whole screen
95- Improved subagent behavior: agents are now less likely to re-delegate their entire task to another subagent
96- Reduced binary size by ~7 MB and startup memory by ~7 MB by loading a large bundled dependency lazily instead of inlining it
97- Changed left arrow to no longer close the background tasks, diff, and workflow detail views — press Esc instead
98- Changed the empty `claude agents` view to always show the organized sections (Needs input / Working / Completed) with descriptions
99- Removed the startup "claude command missing or broken" warnings — they now appear in `/doctor` and `/status` instead
100- Removed a redundant navigation hint from the `claude agents` footer
101- [VSCode] Added a Settings toggle for "Enable Remote Control for all sessions"
102
103## 2.1.202
104
105- 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
106- 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
107- Fixed a crash in the inline Ctrl+R history search when accepting or cancelling while the search was still scanning the history file
108- Fixed `/rename` on background sessions being reverted when the job restarts, which broke addressing the session by its new name
109- Fixed transient mTLS handshake failures when settings were re-applied during an in-place client certificate rotation
110- Fixed commands sent from Remote Control (mobile/web) into an interactive session failing with "Unknown command"
111- Fixed images and files sent from the Remote Control mobile or web app without a caption being silently dropped
112- 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
113- Fixed opening a chat from `claude agents` sometimes failing with "currently running as a background agent" followed by a worker crash/respawn loop
114- 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
115- Fixed voice dictation retrying in an unbounded loop when the microphone or audio recorder fails — repeated capture failures now pause voice input
116- Fixed `/remote-control` sessions showing the wrong permission mode in the mobile and web apps
117- 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
118- Fixed installer and updater downloads failing immediately with "aborted" when a proxy or network drops the connection mid-download — transient connection drops now retry
119- Fixed re-invoking an already-loaded skill appending a duplicate copy of its instructions to context
120- Improved `/workflows` agent list layout: wider titles, a dedicated time column, shorter model names, and no per-row tool-call counts
121- 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"
122- 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
123
124## 2.1.201
125
126- Claude Sonnet 5 sessions no longer use the mid-conversation system role for harness reminders
127
128## 2.1.200
129
130- Changed `AskUserQuestion` dialogs to no longer auto-continue by default; opt into an idle timeout via `/config`
131- 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`
132- Fixed a crash at startup when `disabledMcpServers` or `enabledMcpServers` in `.claude.json` is set to a non-array value
133- Fixed background sessions silently stopping mid-turn after sleep/wake or when reopening a stalled session
134- Fixed background sessions re-running a turn cancelled with Esc after a stall respawn
135- Fixed background agents never starting again after a crash left a stale `daemon.lock` whose PID the OS reused
136- 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
137- 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
138- Fixed subagents cut off by a rate limit before producing any text output returning an empty result instead of failing cleanly
139- Fixed control bytes from background-agent output reaching the terminal in the agent view
140- 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`
141- Fixed project-scoped plugins not loading correctly from git worktrees of the same repository
142- Fixed `/mcp` server list not tracking focus for screen readers and magnifiers
143- Fixed voice dictation showing a misleading "Voice connection failed" message when a recording captures no audio
144- Fixed rendering flicker under tmux 3.4+ by enabling synchronized terminal output
145- Improved screen-reader output: decorative glyphs are now hidden, transcript symbols read as short labels, and nested tables read as `Header: value.` lines
146- Improved the install script to explain when installation is killed by the system running out of memory
147
148## 2.1.199
149
150- Stacked slash-skill invocations like `/skill-a /skill-b do XYZ` now load all leading skills (up to 5), not just the first
151- 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
152- 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
153- Fixed subagents cut off by a rate limit or server error silently failing instead of returning their partial work to the parent
154- Fixed subagents reporting API errors (e.g. usage limit reached) as successful results — the error is now reported to the parent agent
155- 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
156- Fixed background agents failing to cold-start over SSH on macOS with "Could not switch to audit session" (regression in 2.1.196)
157- Fixed `claude stop` being silently undone when it raced a background-agent respawn — the respawn now honors the stop
158- Fixed background job progress indicators stalling for minutes while the job ran long commands
159- Fixed background sessions on memory-starved machines showing a generic error — they now indicate low memory and suggest freeing resources
160- Fixed remote sessions briefly flapping between Working and Idle in the agent view when a background agent completes
161- Fixed idle subagents vanishing from the agent panel while other subagents were still working; surplus idle agents now collapse into an expandable summary row
162- 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
163- Fixed `SessionStart`, `Setup`, and `SubagentStart` hooks silently hiding stderr when exiting with code 2 — the error is now shown in the transcript
164- Fixed `claude --dangerously-skip-permissions daemon <subcommand>` being treated as a chat prompt instead of running the subcommand
165- 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
166- Fixed opening or resuming a session with no new messages needlessly growing the transcript file
167- Fixed backgrounding a session with `←` or `/background` dropping its `/color` from the agent view row
168- Fixed resetting a corrupted config file from the startup recovery dialog destroying it unrecoverably — it now backs up the file first
169- Fixed Claude in Chrome repeatedly opening the reconnect page when sessions run from different builds or config directories
170- Fixed plan mode not prompting for state-changing browser tool calls; read-only `browser_batch` calls are now correctly auto-allowed
171- Transient server rate-limit errors (429s unrelated to your usage limit) are now retried automatically with backoff for subscribers instead of failing the turn
172- `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`
173- `claude agents` session rows now show pull-request links as bare `#N` without the redundant "PR" label
174
175## 2.1.198
176
177- 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)
178- Claude in Chrome is now generally available
179- Added background agent notifications in `claude agents` — sessions that need input or finish now fire the `Notification` hook (`agent_needs_input` / `agent_completed`)
180- Added `/dataviz` skill for chart and dashboard design guidance with a runnable color-palette validator
181- Gateway: added Claude Platform on AWS (anthropicAws) as an upstream provider; model-not-found responses now advance the failover chain
182- 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
183- The built-in Explore agent now inherits the main session's model (capped at opus) instead of running on haiku
184- Subagents and context compaction now inherit the session's extended thinking configuration, improving output quality on delegated tasks
185- Fixed brief network drops mid-response aborting the turn — transient errors like ECONNRESET now retry with backoff instead of failing
186- Fixed excessive background classifier requests when sandboxed processes repeatedly accessed the same network host
187- Fixed background tasks in web, desktop, and VS Code task panels getting stuck on "Running" after they finish or after resuming a session
188- 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
189- Fixed the `/diff` panel not refreshing when you switch branches or commit outside the session
190- Fixed markdown tables overflowing and wrapping their right border when rendered in fullscreen mode
191- Fixed Claude Platform on AWS and Mantle sessions dead-ending with "Please run /login" when the STS token expires — `awsAuthRefresh` now runs automatically
192- Fixed "no route to host" for local-network hosts in macOS background agent sessions by declaring Local Network entitlements
193- Fixed `/desktop` failing with "Cannot determine working directory" after entering and exiting a worktree
194- Fixed background agents repeatedly showing "Reconnecting…" every ~52 seconds on macOS while the agents view was open
195- Fixed pressing `←` inside `claude attach <id>` exiting to the shell instead of opening the agent view
196- Fixed `claude --bg` silently creating an unattachable session when combined with `--print`/`-p`; the conflicting flags are now rejected up front
197- Fixed the workflow progress view dropping the earliest agents from the list while the phase counter stayed correct in SDK and desktop-app sessions
198- Fixed `.claude/rules/` conditional rules not loading when the target file is reached via a symlinked path
199- Fixed Cmd+click not opening URLs in fullscreen mode in Warp on macOS
200- Fixed double-click word selection in fullscreen mode to select the entire URL including the scheme
201- Fixed plan mode not auto-allowing read-only tool calls when a session starts in plan mode
202- Fixed `/branch` deriving its default fork name from the compaction summary instead of the first real prompt
203- Improved focus mode: subagents launched in a turn now appear in its activity summary, and completed background notifications fold into a single count
204- Improved syntax highlighting accuracy in code blocks, diffs, and file previews by upgrading to highlight.js 11
205- Keyboard shortcut hints now show opt/cmd instead of alt/super when connected from a Mac over SSH
206- 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
207- `/login` now opens the sign-in dialog from the `claude agents` view instead of saying it isn't available
208- 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
209- Removed the `/agents` wizard; ask Claude to create or manage subagents, or edit `.claude/agents/` directly
210
211## 2.1.197
212
213- 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
214
215## 2.1.196
216
217- 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
218- Added readable default names for sessions at start, making them easier to identify and message
219- Added clickable file attachments in chat — Cmd/Ctrl-click reveals the file in Finder/Explorer
220- 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`
221- 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
222- 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
223- Fixed duplicate recap lines after a background session's turn: a schema-rejected StructuredOutput attempt no longer renders alongside its retry
224- Fixed PowerShell `git diff`/`git grep`, `egrep`/`fgrep`, and quoted search patterns containing `|` being reported as failures when they exit 1, matching Bash behavior
225- 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
226- 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
227- Fixed mid-turn crash recovery for Remote sessions — sessions interrupted by a server restart now auto-resume on the next worker
228- 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
229- Fixed `claude plugin validate` skipping local plugins whose source is "." and stopping after the first error class
230- 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
231- 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
232- Fixed `/context` showing 0 tokens for all tool groups on Bedrock
233- Fixed `/deep-research` misreporting verifier failures as "all claims refuted" instead of `unverified`
234- Fixed plugin dependency version pins not being honored when the marketplace was added as a local folder path backed by a git repo
235- 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
236- Fixed voice dictation swallowing spaces and spuriously starting a recording during very fast typing when voice mode is enabled
237- 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
238- 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
239- Improved `/code-review` workflow: merged five cleanup finders into one, cutting token usage by roughly 25%
240- Reduced per-frame rendering work in the terminal UI by skipping no-op subtree walks during streaming
241- 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.
242- 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`
243- Changed opening the agents view from a foreground session to require a single `←` press instead of two, matching the behavior in background sessions
244
245## 2.1.195
246
247- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_MOUSE_CLICKS` to disable mouse click/drag/hover in fullscreen mode while keeping wheel scroll
248- 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.
249- Fixed voice dictation on macOS capturing silence in long-running sessions after the default input device changes
250- Fixed voice dictation auto-submit never firing for languages written without spaces (Japanese, Chinese, Thai)
251- Fixed external plugins enabled only by project `.claude/settings.json` not requiring explicit install consent on every loader path
252- Fixed `/plugin` Enable/Disable not working when a plugin's `plugin.json` `name` differs from its marketplace entry name
253- Fixed background jobs disappearing from `claude agents` or losing data when written by a newer Claude Code version
254- Fixed reopening a crashed background task showing a blank screen for up to 5 seconds instead of its restart
255- Fixed background agent daemons running unreachable when the control socket fails to start, blocking restarts
256- Improved voice mode on Linux: now distinguishes "no microphone" from "SoX not installed" when SoX is present but no audio capture device exists
257- Improved `claude agents` completed list to fill available vertical space; on short terminals the header compacts so live sessions stay visible
258- Improved Remote session startup with a provisioning checklist while the container starts
259
260## 2.1.193
261
262- Added `autoMode.classifyAllShell` setting to route all Bash/PowerShell commands through the auto-mode classifier instead of only arbitrary-code-execution patterns
263- Added auto-mode denial reasons to the transcript, the denial toast, and `/permissions` recent denials
264- 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.
265- Added live file path autocomplete to bash mode (`!`)
266- Added a startup notice when MCP servers need authentication, pointing at `/mcp`
267- Added automatic memory-pressure reaping for idle background shell commands (disable with `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_BG_SHELL_PRESSURE_REAP=1`)
268- Fixed `/model` and other client-data-gated UI showing stale/empty state immediately after `/login`
269- Fixed backgrounding (←←) spuriously cancelling with "N background tasks would be abandoned" when all running tasks carry over to the new session
270- Fixed pinned background agents being re-prompted to "Continue from where you left off" after every auto-update
271- Fixed backgrounding the main turn spawning a phantom "general-purpose (resumed)" subagent that re-ran the main conversation
272- Fixed agent panel hiding sibling agents when viewing a subagent
273- Improved background agents: the launch result no longer instructs Claude to "end your response" — it keeps working on other tasks while the agent runs
274- Improved MCP `headersHelper` auth: the helper now re-runs and reconnects automatically when a tool call returns 401/403
275- Improved plugin auto-rename: marketplace `renames` maps are now followed automatically, updating your settings to the new name
276- Improved `/add-dir` message when the directory is already a working directory
277
278## 2.1.191
279
280- Added `/rewind` support for resuming a conversation from before `/clear` was run
281- Fixed scroll position jumping to the bottom while reading earlier output during a streaming response
282- Fixed background agents resurrecting after being stopped — stopping an agent from the tasks panel is now permanent
283- Fixed `/voice` showing a generic "not available" message when disabled by an organization's policy — it now explains the restriction
284- Fixed `/login` URL opening truncated in Windows Terminal when it wraps across lines
285- Fixed Cmd+click on links in fullscreen mode for Ghostty over ssh/tmux
286- Fixed `claude agents` sending builtin slash commands like `/usage` to background sessions as prompt text instead of showing a hint
287- Fixed `claude agents` job rows showing full filesystem paths for pasted images instead of the `[Image #N]` placeholder
288- Fixed hooks with comma-separated matchers (e.g. `"Bash,PowerShell"`) silently never firing
289- Fixed `/permissions` Recently-denied tab: approving a denial now persists on close instead of being silently discarded
290- Fixed the agent panel jumping by one row when scrolling the roster past the overflow cap
291- Fixed the welcome splash art overflowing the default 80×24 macOS Terminal window
292- 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
293- 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
294- Improved MCP server reliability: capability discovery (`tools/list`, `prompts/list`, `resources/list`) now retries transient network errors with short backoff
295- 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
296- Improved MCP error messages: HTTP 404 errors now show the URL and point to your MCP config
297- Improved vim mode prompt-history search (NORMAL `/`) to hint how to reach slash commands
298- Reduced CPU usage during streaming responses by ~37% by coalescing text updates to 100ms
299- Reduced long-session memory growth from terminal output cache

301## 2.1.190
302
303- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
304
305## 2.1.187
306
307- Added `sandbox.credentials` setting to block sandboxed commands from reading credential files and secret environment variables
308- 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
309- Added mouse click support to select menus (permission prompts, `/model`, `/config`, etc.) in fullscreen mode
310- Fixed `--resume` failing with "No conversation found" when the original `-p` run produced no model turns
311- 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
312- 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`)
313- Fixed Claude Code Remote sessions taking ~2.7s longer to start after the agent proxy CA system-trust install was added
314- Fixed pasted Korean/CJK text turning into mojibake in terminals that deliver paste as per-byte extended-key events
315- Fixed `/update` over Remote Control hanging when a startup trust dialog would have shown
316- Fixed background jobs in the agents view getting stuck in "working" indefinitely when the agent ended a turn without producing structured output
317- Fixed channel connections dropping after navigating to the agents view and back, and after `/bg`, `/tui`, or `/update`
318- Fixed agent stop notifications not correctly attributing who stopped the agent, and improved wording ("finished"/"stopped" instead of "came to rest")
319- Fixed subagent depth tracking: resumed subagents now restore their original spawn depth, and forked subagents now count toward the depth cap
320- Fixed leaked agent worktree registrations: locked `.git/worktrees/` entries from killed agents are now cleaned up automatically
321- Fixed Cmd+click not opening URLs in fullscreen mode in Ghostty on macOS
322- Fixed `claude --help` not listing the `--bg`/`--background` flag
323- Fixed Esc, Ctrl-C, and Ctrl-D not working while `/share` is uploading
324- Improved `/install-github-app`: GitHub Actions workflow setup is now optional — you can install just the GitHub App and skip the workflow/secret steps
325- Improved `/btw` with ←/→ arrow navigation to step through earlier answers
326- Improved `/plugin` to surface plugins you haven't used recently so you can clean them up
327- [VSCode] Fixed extension becoming unresponsive when resuming a large session
328
329## 2.1.186
330
331- 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
332- Added status filtering (press `f`) to the `/workflows` agent detail view
333- Added a "Skills" section to the `/plugin` Installed tab
334- Added `teammateMode: "iterm2"` setting with a warning when auto mode cannot find the `it2` CLI
335- Added "Claude Platform on AWS - refresh credentials" option to `/login` when `awsAuthRefresh` is configured
336- `!` bash commands now trigger Claude to respond to the output automatically; set `"respondToBashCommands": false` in settings.json to keep the previous context-only behavior
337- Fixed streaming requests failing with "Content block not found" or JSON parse errors after the machine wakes from sleep
338- Fixed subagent transcript scroll position bleeding into the main transcript on exit
339- Fixed background task previews flashing raw tool names before the agent's plan loaded
340- Fixed Chrome tab-group isolation not applying when the in-product permissions gate is off for concurrent CLI sessions
341- Fixed background session recaps being duplicated; the agent's own end-of-turn summary now shows as the recap line
342- Fixed opening a background session from `claude agents` leaving the previous screen painted behind it
343- Fixed `Agent(type)` deny rules and `Agent(x,y)` allowed-types restrictions not being enforced for named subagent spawns
344- Fixed Esc and Ctrl+C not responding while background agents are still running after the main turn ends
345- Fixed misaligned option numbers in permission prompts when the option text overflows
346- Fixed pressing `x` on a finished subagent in the agent panel not dismissing it
347- Fixed a misleading "MCP server disconnected" notice for intentionally retired tools when resuming older sessions
348- Fixed `/plugin` Installed showing a "more above" indicator when already scrolled to the top
349- Fixed `~~strikethrough~~` showing literal tildes in assistant messages instead of rendering as strikethrough
350- Fixed `--tools` allowing feature-gated tools to slip through before flags loaded on a cold first launch
351- Fixed background job status in `claude agents` showing a stale "needs input" message after replying
352- Fixed a dark-theme flash when opening a background session from `claude agents` on a light terminal
353- Fixed mouse-selected text staying highlighted after deleting it in `claude agents`
354- Fixed session cost not showing for usage-based Enterprise and Team subscribers
355- Fixed agent teams: teammates spawned via tmux/pane backends now inherit the leader's `--effort` level
356- Fixed Workflow `agent({schema})` subagents looping forever on repeated schema validation failures instead of aborting after 5 attempts
357- Improved `claude mcp get` and `claude mcp remove` to suggest the closest configured server name on a typo and truncate long server lists
358- Improved memory: the agent is now reminded to compact its `MEMORY.md` index when nearing the size limit
359- Improved skill frontmatter: `display-name`, `default-enabled`, `fallback`, and `metadata.*` keys now accept kebab-case, snake_case, and camelCase
360- Improved malformed `SKILL.md` YAML frontmatter handling: loads the skill body with empty metadata instead of failing silently
361- Changed `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_RETRIES` to cap at 15; for unattended sessions, use `CLAUDE_CODE_RETRY_WATCHDOG` instead
362- 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
363- Changed `/review <pr>` to use the same review engine as `/code-review medium`
364
365## 2.1.185
366
367- 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
368
369## 2.1.183
370
371- 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
372- 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
373- Added `attribution.sessionUrl` setting to omit the claude.ai session link from commits and PRs in web and Remote Control sessions
374- Added `/config --help` to list all available shorthand keys for `/config key=value`
375- Changed `/config` toggle behavior: Enter and Space both change the selected setting, and Esc now saves and closes instead of reverting
376- Removed the startup "setup issues" line under the logo — run `/doctor` to see configuration issues or use `--debug`
377- Fixed `thinking.disabled.display: Extra inputs are not permitted` 400 errors on subagent spawns and session-title generation for affected configurations
378- Fixed WebSearch returning empty results in subagents
379- Fixed the terminal cursor being stranded above the prompt after navigating history in vim mode with the native cursor enabled
380- Fixed fullscreen TUI corruption (statusline mid-screen, duplicated spinner rows, merged text) in Windows Terminal under heavy nested-subagent load
381- Fixed turns silently completing with no visible output when the model returned only a thinking block; Claude now re-prompts once
382- Fixed user-level skills appearing multiple times in slash-command autocomplete when multiple plugins are enabled
383- Fixed MCP servers requiring authentication exposing auth-stub tools to the model in headless/SDK mode
384- 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
385- Fixed background tasks started by a teammate being killed when the teammate finishes a turn
386- 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
387- Fixed focus mode showing "Ran N PostToolUse hooks" timing lines under each response
388
389## 2.1.181
390
391- Added `/config key=value` syntax to set any setting from the prompt (e.g. `/config thinking=false`) — works in interactive, `-p`, and Remote Control
392- Added `sandbox.allowAppleEvents` opt-in setting that lets sandboxed commands send Apple Events on macOS
393- Added `CLAUDE_CLIENT_PRESENCE_FILE` environment variable: point it at a marker file to suppress mobile push notifications while you're at the machine
394- Upgraded the bundled Bun runtime to 1.4
395- Improved streaming of long paragraphs: text now appears line-by-line instead of waiting for the first line break
396- Improved auto-retry: API connection drops mid-thinking now automatically retry instead of showing "Connection closed while thinking"
397- 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
398- Improved the MCP OAuth browser page to match Claude Code's visual style and auto-close on success
399- Changed fullscreen mode URL opening to require Cmd+click (macOS) / Ctrl+click, matching native terminal behavior
400- Changed the `Improved N memories` line to no longer list individual files outside verbose mode
401- Fixed prompt caching not reading on custom `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` and on Foundry due to a per-request attestation token changing every turn
402- Fixed Write/Edit producing 0-byte or truncated files on network drives and cloud-synced folders
403- Fixed `open`, `osascript`, and browser-based auth flows failing with error -600 on macOS by adding the Apple Events entitlement
404- 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
405- Fixed startup blocking with a blank terminal for up to 15 seconds when the account settings fetch is slow on a degraded network
406- Fixed startup crash (`TypeError: Cannot read properties of null`) when `.claude.json` contains corrupted null project entries
407- Fixed macOS TUI freezing at session start (Ctrl+C unresponsive) when Spotlight is busy reindexing
408- Fixed long-running idle sessions losing their history when another Claude Code process ran the 30-day transcript cleanup
409- Fixed foreground subagents spawning unbounded nested chains; they now respect the same 5-level depth limit as background subagents
410- Fixed `/recap` and conversation forks using the previous model immediately after a model switch
411- Fixed subagent "Thinking" duration showing the parent agent's elapsed time instead of the subagent's own
412- Fixed subagents blocked on a nested agent showing a ticking elapsed time instead of "waiting" in the agent panel
413- Fixed the API retry indicator ("Retrying in 0s · attempt N/10") staying on screen after the retry succeeded
414- 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`
415- Fixed `claude mcp get`/`list` showing `✓ Connected` when tools/list fails; they now show `! Connected · tools fetch failed` with the error detail
416- Fixed `/remote-control` leaving a stale "connecting…" line; it now confirms in the transcript once connected
417- Fixed ExitWorktree refusing to remove a clean worktree with "Could not verify worktree state" when bare `git` cannot be resolved on Windows
418- Fixed settings changes (such as `/effort` or `/model`) failing with ENOENT when `~/.claude/settings.json` is a relative symlink under a symlinked `~/.claude`
419- Fixed IDE selection line numbers in context reminders being off by one (IntelliJ and VS Code)
420- Fixed Ctrl+C in fullscreen after a native terminal selection (modifier+drag) overwriting the clipboard with the app's prior selection
421- Fixed Ctrl+V showing "No image found in clipboard" instead of pasting when the clipboard contains text
422- Fixed agent creation failing with "EEXIST: file already exists" when the agents directory already exists (Windows/OneDrive)
423- Fixed AskUserQuestion preview content being cut off at the dialog edge instead of word-wrapping
424- Fixed AskUserQuestion multi-select questions silently dropping a typed "Other" free-text answer when submitting
425- Fixed `/stats` "Most active day" and daily token chart dates showing one day early in UTC-negative timezones
426- Fixed `/copy` and copy-on-select on Linux not detecting a clipboard utility installed after Claude Code started
427- Fixed tab-indented code rendering with incorrect indentation in the Write (create-file) preview
428- Fixed user prompts queued mid-turn not showing a full-width background highlight in the transcript
429- Fixed the activity spinner's pulse dwelling on the wrong glyph size in Ghostty
430
431## 2.1.179
432
433- 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"
434- Fixed mouse-wheel scrolling in WSL2 under Windows Terminal and VS Code (regression in 2.1.172)
435- Fixed a sandbox `denyRead`/`allowRead` glob over a large directory tree making the Bash tool description enormous and the session unusable on Linux
436- Fixed the feedback survey capturing a single-digit reply as a session rating immediately after a turn completes
437- Fixed the welcome screen stacking multiple promotional banners — at most one promo now shows per session
438- Fixed Ctrl+O not showing the subagent's transcript when viewing a subagent
439- Fixed clicking the prompt input not returning focus from the subagent/footer panel
440- Fixed remote session background tasks appearing stuck as "still running" between turns
441- Improved plugin loading performance in remote sessions
442
443## 2.1.178
444
445- 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.
446- 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
447- 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
448- 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/`
449- 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
450- Improved `/doctor` with consistent flat tree layout across all sections, clearer section status icons, and highlighted command names
451- Improved the skill listing truncation warning to show how many skill descriptions are affected
452- 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
453- 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
454- `/bug` now requires a description before submitting, and no longer uses model-refusal text as the GitHub issue title
455- Fixed a crash (out-of-memory) when the CLI inherits a stale websocket/OAuth file-descriptor environment variable from a parent process
456- Fixed Claude in Chrome silently failing to connect when the OAuth token belongs to a different account than the Claude Code login
457- Fixed nested `.claude/skills` skills with directory-qualified names being blocked by permission prompts in non-interactive runs
458- 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
459- 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`
460- Fixed compaction not honoring `--fallback-model`: compaction now falls back to the configured fallback model chain on overload or model-availability errors
461- Fixed model requests continuing to fail with auth errors after credentials were refreshed outside the session, due to a stale cached request configuration
462- Fixed background sessions created with `/bg` or `←←` after a turn finished showing "Working" forever in the agents list
463- Fixed Linux sandbox failing to start when `.claude/skills` or `.claude/hooks` is a symlink
464- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_KEEP_MARKETPLACE_ON_FAILURE=1` preventing fresh marketplace installs from cloning
465- Fixed MCP server-level specs (`mcp__server`, `mcp__server__*`, `mcp__*`) in subagent `disallowedTools` being silently ignored
466- 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
467- Fixed statusline links with custom URI schemes (e.g. `vscode://`) not opening when clicked in `claude agents`
468- [VSCode] Fixed pressing Esc to dismiss a CJK IME candidate window canceling the running Claude task
469
470## 2.1.176
471
472- Session titles are now generated in the language of your conversation (set the `language` setting to pin a specific language)
473- Added `footerLinksRegexes` setting for regex-matched link badges in the footer row, configurable via user or managed settings
474- Improved Bedrock credential caching: credentials from `awsCredentialExport` are now cached until their `Expiration` instead of a fixed 1 hour
475- 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
476- 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
477- Fixed hook `if` conditions for Read/Edit/Write tool paths: documented patterns like `Edit(src/**)`, `Read(~/.ssh/**)`, and `Read(.env)` now match correctly
478- Fixed Linux sandbox failing to start when `.claude/settings.json` is a symlink with an absolute target
479- 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
480- Fixed Remote Control connecting from web/mobile silently switching the session's model
481- 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
482- Fixed Remote Control sessions not disconnecting when you sign in to a different account
483- Fixed `/cd` and worktree moves leaving the session reporting the previous directory's git branch
484- Fixed `claude agents`: pressing back in one window no longer detaches other windows attached to the same session
485- Fixed backgrounded sessions showing "Working" forever when `/bg` mid-turn had nothing left to continue
486- Fixed background agent search by PR URL: PRs opened during scheduled wakeups or while a job was blocked now appear in `claude agents` search
487- Fixed the agents view input showing no text cursor on Windows
488- Fixed `claude --bg -cn <name>` not seeding the session name
489- Fixed background sessions to neutralize Windows network paths in persisted state before respawn
490- Fixed background-session respawn rejecting malformed resume IDs from corrupted state files
491- Fixed the Windows background-service daemon not starting when `~/.claude/daemon` has the ReadOnly attribute set
492- Fixed cloud sessions failing with "Could not resolve authentication method" when idle for too long before being claimed
493- 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
494
495## 2.1.175
496
497- 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
498
499## 2.1.174
500
501- Added `wheelScrollAccelerationEnabled` setting to disable mouse-wheel scroll acceleration in fullscreen mode
502- 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
503- Fixed `/model` picker showing a hardcoded Sonnet version label when `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL` pins a different Sonnet
504- Fixed the "Fable 5 is now consuming usage credits" banner incorrectly showing for enterprise accounts with usage-based billing
505- Fixed Bedrock GovCloud regions (`us-gov-*`) deriving the wrong inference profile prefix (`global` instead of `us-gov`), causing 400 errors on derived model IDs
506- Fixed background sessions inheriting another session's `ANTHROPIC_*` provider env (gateway URL, custom headers, `/model` aliases) from the shell that started the background daemon
507- Fixed a 1-2 second pause when exiting Claude Code shortly after a shell command was interrupted or killed on macOS and Linux
508- Fixed git commit co-author attribution showing an incorrect model name for some models
509- Fixed the `/advisor` dialog pre-selecting a saved advisor model that is blocked by the `availableModels` allowlist
510- Fixed skill hot-reload re-sending the entire skill listing when a single skill changed; only changed skills are now re-announced
511- Fixed Workflow tool `agent()` subagents missing per-agent attribution headers
512- [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
513- Fixed pre-warmed background workers failing with "Could not resolve authentication method" when claimed after sitting idle
514
515## 2.1.173
516
517- 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
518- Fixed a spurious "sandbox dependencies missing" startup warning on Windows when sandbox was enabled in settings
519
520## 2.1.172
521
522- Sub-agents can now spawn their own sub-agents (up to 5 levels deep)
523- 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
524- Added a search bar when browsing a marketplace's plugins in `/plugin`
525- Added `model` attribute to the `claude_code.lines_of_code.count` OTEL metric
526- Fixed sessions using 1M context without usage credits getting permanently stuck — the session now automatically compacts back under the standard context limit
527- Fixed a repeating "an image in the conversation could not be processed and was removed" error when the conversation contained multiple images
528- Fixed the agents view keeping a session under Working with a busy spinner for up to 30 seconds after the worker replied
529- Fixed background agents potentially reading another directory's project settings (`.mcp.json` approvals, trust) when dispatched onto a pre-warmed worker
530- Fixed background-session attach failing with EAUTH for sessions started on an older version after the daemon auto-updated
531- Fixed a background sub-agent staying stuck as "active" in the agent panel after a nested agent it spawned was stopped
532- Fixed `/model` suggestions in the `claude agents` dispatch input rendering with a misleading slash prefix and showing models disabled for your org
533- Fixed `availableModels` restrictions not being applied to subagent model overrides, the agent dispatch model picker, and the advisor model
534- Fixed `availableModels` allowlists hiding the `/model` picker's Opus and Sonnet 1M rows when entries use version-specific IDs like `claude-opus-4-8`
535- 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
536- Fixed model IDs getting a doubled 1M-context suffix (e.g. `[1M][1m]`) when `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL` already includes one
537- 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
538- 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
539- Fixed up-arrow prompt history showing the main agent's prompts while a subagent's chat tab is open
540- Fixed memory recall not finding mounted team memory stores (`CLAUDE_MEMORY_STORES`) in remote sessions
541- Fixed workflow validation rejecting scripts whose prompt strings or comments merely mention `Date.now()`/`Math.random()`
542- Disable mouse tracking on Windows consoles that don't fully support it
543- 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
544- Improved performance in long conversations by removing redundant message normalization and avoiding full message-history transforms when streaming tool-use state is unchanged
545- 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
546- Improved Claude in Chrome tool loading: browser tools now load in a single batched call instead of one per tool
547- Improved the non-interactive Usage Policy refusal message to suggest starting a new session or changing your model
548- `/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
549- Shortened the Remote Control footer indicator to "/rc active" and hid it on narrow terminals
550- Stopped promoting `/loop` in remote sessions, where pending loops don't keep the container alive
551- [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
552
553## 2.1.170
554
555- 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
556- 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.
557
558## 2.1.169
559
560- 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)
561- 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
562- Added `/cd` command to move a session to a new working directory without breaking the prompt cache mid-session
563- 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
564- 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
565- 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
566- Fixed a ~30-50ms UI stall at the start of each turn for macOS users logged in with claude.ai credentials
567- Fixed `claude -p` being slow or appearing to hang on Windows while waiting for the slash-command/skill scan (regression in 2.1.161)
568- Fixed Remote Control getting stuck on "reconnecting" after resuming a session when an OAuth token refresh happened at the same time
569- Fixed Git Credential Manager's "Connect to GitHub" popup appearing on Windows at startup when background git commands ran without cached credentials
570- Fixed footer hints (e.g. "esc to interrupt") not showing for users with a custom statusline
571- Fixed stale permission and dialog prompts reappearing every time you reattached to a remote session whose worker had died while waiting on them
572- Fixed `claude agents --json` omitting blocked and just-dispatched background sessions; added `--all` to include completed sessions, plus new `id` and `state` fields
573- Fixed agents view leaving a stale/garbled frame after navigating back from an agent on WSL in Windows Terminal
574- Fixed background agents ignoring project-level settings `env` values (e.g. `ANTHROPIC_MODEL`) when dispatched onto a pre-warmed worker
575- Fixed MCPB plugin cache being spuriously invalidated on Windows, causing unnecessary re-extraction
576- Fixed plugin `.in_use` PID lock files accumulating without bound; stale markers from crashed sessions are now swept once per day
577- Fixed untrusted project settings being able to set OTEL client-certificate paths without trust confirmation
578- `/workflows` now opens immediately even while a turn is in progress
579- Improved `TaskCreate` reliability: malformed inputs are repaired automatically and validation errors for unloaded tools include the schema
580- Improved the error message shown when your organization has disabled API key authentication, with guidance based on where the active API key comes from
581- Reduced CPU usage while responses stream and during spinner animations
582- 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
583- 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
584- Background sessions now preserve `--ide`, `--chrome`, `--bare`, `--remote-control`, and other flags across retire→wake, and respawn state validation was hardened
585- Background sessions are now told that shared-checkout edits are blocked until they enter a worktree, avoiding a wasted rejected edit before `EnterWorktree`
586- The "CLAUDE.md is too long" warning threshold now scales with the model's context window
587- Auto-updater on Windows now stops retrying within a session once `claude.exe` is held by another process
588- Improved color contrast for skill tags in the slash-command menu
589- Promo credit claims for Apple/Google-billed subscribers without a payment method now explain where to add one
590- Added a tip suggesting `claude agents` when running multiple concurrent sessions

598- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
599
600## 2.1.166
601
602- 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
603- 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
604- 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
605- `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)
606- 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
607- `claude update` now announces the target version before downloading instead of going silent
608- `claude agents`: typing a URL into the list now filters to the session whose first prompt contained it
609- Fixed a recurring "image could not be processed" error and extra token usage when an unprocessable image was sent in a session
610- Fixed remote sessions becoming permanently stuck when a brief backend disruption occurred during worker registration at startup
611- Fixed flickering in JetBrains IDE terminals (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc.) on 2026.1+ by enabling synchronized output
612- Fixed Shift+non-ASCII characters (e.g. Shift+ä → Ä) being dropped in terminals using the Kitty keyboard protocol (WezTerm, Ghostty, kitty)
613- Fixed PowerShell command validation occasionally hanging far past its time budget on Windows when a killed process's children held its output pipes
614- Fixed orphaned `claude --bg-pty-host` processes spinning at 100% CPU after the daemon dies while connected on macOS
615- Fixed voice mode requiring `/login` to clear a stale auth check after toggling `/voice`
616- Fixed managed settings with an invalid entry silently disabling enforcement of their remaining valid policies
617- Fixed managed-settings `allowedMcpServers`/`deniedMcpServers` predicates not matching when they use `${VAR}` references
618- Fixed background agent sessions that entered a git worktree crash-looping with "No conversation found" when reopened from `claude agents`
619- Fixed duplicated thinking text in the Ctrl+O transcript view while streaming
620- Fixed `/doctor` showing a contradictory failed "Not inside a remote session" check when run inside a remote session
621- Fixed the cursor sticking at the end of the first line when typing a multiline prompt in the `claude agents` dispatch and reply inputs
622- Fixed blank lines appearing between background agent rows in the task list on terminals without Unicode support
623
624## 2.1.165
625
626- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
627
628## 2.1.163
629
630- Added `requiredMinimumVersion` and `requiredMaximumVersion` managed settings — Claude Code refuses to start if its version is outside the allowed range and directs the user to an approved version
631- Added `/plugin list` command to list installed plugins, with `--enabled`/`--disabled` filters
632- Added a "c to copy" shortcut to `/btw` that copies the raw markdown answer to the clipboard, preserving formatting when pasted elsewhere
633- Hooks: Stop and SubagentStop hooks can now return `hookSpecificOutput.additionalContext` to give Claude feedback and keep the turn going without being labeled a hook error
634- Skills: added `\$` escape syntax to include a literal `$` before a digit in command bodies
635- stdio MCP servers now receive the same `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` as hooks/Bash on `--resume`
636- 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
637- Fixed `claude -p` failing with "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY required" on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry when `CI=true` and no Anthropic API key is set
638- Fixed bash commands failing under bazel and EDR-protected Go workflows: `$TMPDIR` was overridden to `/tmp/claude-{uid}` for all commands instead of only sandboxed ones (regression in 2.1.154)
639- Fixed Bash commands failing on Windows with "EEXIST: file already exists" on the session-env directory when it has the read-only attribute or is inside OneDrive
640- Fixed org-managed permission rules not applying for the entire session when the managed settings fetch completed during startup on a fresh config directory
641- Fixed background sessions in `claude agents` losing their running background tasks when reattached after a Claude Code update
642- Fixed terminal misalignment and a multi-second hang when exiting the agent view by pressing Esc
643- Fixed clicking Stop on a background-task chip in the desktop app not clearing the chip when the underlying process was already gone
644- Fixed keyboard input becoming permanently unresponsive after a paste operation whose end marker is dropped by the terminal
645- Fixed hook `if: "Bash(...)"` conditions firing on every Bash command containing `$()` or `$VAR`; the pattern now matches against commands inside subshells and backticks too
646- Fixed deny rules on home-directory paths (e.g. `Read(~/Desktop/**)`) not blocking Bash commands that reference the path via `$HOME`
647- Fixed a stray "(no content)" line left in the transcript after closing panel dialogs like /mcp and /plugins
648- 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
649- Clearer descriptions for built-in commands and skills in the / menu
650- The subscription-switch suggestion now shows in the startup announcement slot instead of a toast
651- `claude agents` dispatching from the state-grouped view now starts the session in the directory the agent view was opened from
652
653## 2.1.162
654
655- `claude agents --json` now includes `waitingFor` showing what a waiting session is blocked on (e.g. permission prompt)
656- `--tools`: explicitly listing Grep/Glob now provides the dedicated search tools on native builds with embedded search (previously these names were silently ignored)
657- `/effort` now confirms when your chosen level will persist as the default for new sessions
658- Clicking a slash command in the autocomplete menu now fills it into your prompt instead of running it immediately; press Enter to run
659- Remote Control now shows as a persistent footer pill (with a link to the session) instead of a startup message
660- Renamed Windsurf to Devin Desktop in the `/ide` menu, `/terminal-setup`, and `/scroll-speed`, following the editor's rebrand
661- 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
662- 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
663- 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
664- 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
665- Fixed API 400 `no low surrogate in string` errors for classifier side-queries and MCP server descriptions containing emoji near a truncation boundary
666- 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
667- Fixed the LSP tool's `workspaceSymbol` operation returning no results; it now accepts a `query` parameter and passes it to the language server
668- 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
669- Fixed `claude agents` truncating long session names at 40 columns; the name column now grows with terminal width
670- Fixed `claude agents` attach occasionally bouncing straight back to the session list on the first try after a background-service restart
671- 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
672- 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
673- Fixed replies from the agents view that fail to send being lost; they are now queued for delivery on the next session start
674- Fixed cross-session messaging (`SendMessage`) silently breaking when `CLAUDE_CODE_TMPDIR` or `$TMPDIR` points at a deep directory
675- Fixed opening a running background session from `claude agents` stalling for 5 seconds before attaching
676- Quieter startup: notices group by severity, and session info and announcements share a single line per launch
677- Startup warnings rewritten to be shorter and clearer, each with a concrete fix
678- Launch-prompt warnings (deep link/pre-filled prompt) now stay pinned below the input until you act instead of scrolling away
679- Failed turns now show a compact warning line instead of a multi-line red error block
680- Improved background service startup and `claude update` verification to wait out endpoint-security scanning of new binaries instead of failing after 5 seconds
681- Background dispatch spawn failures now report the error class name when no errno is available
682- 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
683
684## 2.1.161
685
686- `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
687- `claude agents` rows now show `done/total` before the detail when work is fanned out; peek shows the longest-running item
688- `/mcp` now collapses claude.ai connectors you've never signed in to behind a "Show unused connectors" row
689- Parallel tool calls: a failed Bash command no longer cancels other calls in the same batch — each tool returns its own result independently
690- 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
691- Fixed the `/effort` dialog, workflow animations, and prompt keyword shimmer not honoring the "Reduce motion" setting
692- Fixed `forceLoginOrgUUID`/`forceLoginMethod` managed-settings policies blocking third-party provider sessions (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, Mantle) alongside the org pin (regression in 2.1.146)
693- Fixed background subagent output corrupting `claude -p` stdout when using `--output-format text` or `json`
694- Fixed `/usage-credits` starting a re-login for Team and Enterprise admins instead of pointing to the organization's usage settings page
695- Fixed `/autofix-pr` reporting "cannot run on the default branch" when the session is inside a git worktree or another repository
696- Fixed `--resume` picker not showing sessions from the current directory when it isn't a git worktree (e.g., jj workspaces)
697- Fixed Windows hooks that invoke bash explicitly (e.g., `/usr/bin/bash script.sh`) failing with "command not found" or "cannot execute binary file"
698- Fixed OpenTelemetry log events (`user_prompt`, `api_request`, `tool_result`, `tool_decision`) being silently dropped when emitted before telemetry initialization completed
699- 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
700- Fixed Workflow agents spawned with `isolation: "worktree"` in background sessions being blocked from editing files inside their own worktree
701- Fixed background sessions dispatched from `claude agents` booting on a stale model from the daemon's environment instead of the model in `settings.json`
702- Fixed a potential crash when rendering Write tool results after resuming a session
703- Fixed completed subagents getting stuck showing as running when an error occurs while finalizing their result
704- Fixed `EADDRINUSE` errors from tools that bind Unix sockets under `$TMPDIR` when `CLAUDE_CODE_TMPDIR` is set to a deep path
705- Improved terminal rendering performance by stabilizing the layout engine's JIT compilation profile
706- Improved rendering performance for large file writes
707- [VSCode] Added a tip suggesting disabling terminal GPU acceleration (or running `/terminal-setup`) to fix garbled glyphs
708
709## 2.1.160
710
711- Added a prompt before writing to shell startup files (`.zshenv`, `.zlogin`, `.bash_login`) and `~/.config/git/`, which could otherwise lead to unintended command execution
712- `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.)
713- 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
714- 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
715- Fixed restoring a completed session from `claude agents` dropping chat history and re-running the original prompt
716- Fixed background sessions re-attached after overnight retire losing their conversation and re-running the original prompt
717- Fixed `claude --bg` occasionally failing with "socket missing" when the background daemon was cold-starting on a loaded machine
718- 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
719- Fixed background agents that resumed work being shown under Completed in the agents list
720- Fixed `claude agents` freezing for several seconds when returning to the session list due to the auto-updater re-checking on every exit
721- 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
722- 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
723- Fixed mouse wheel scrolling prompt history instead of the transcript right after opening a session from the agents list
724- Fixed CJK IME composition appearing at the bottom-left of the screen instead of at the input caret in the `claude agents` view
725- Fixed valid `file:///C:/...` links being rewritten to a broken path on Windows terminals with hyperlink support
726- Fixed voice mode failing to connect when the project directory or branch name contains non-ASCII or special characters
727- 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
728- 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
729- Fixed model-not-found errors suggesting `--model` when running via the SDK or other hosts where the CLI flag doesn't apply
730- Fixed Claude's past replies disappearing from scrollback when resuming a brief mode session with brief mode turned off
731- Fixed vim mode `p` pasting on the line below instead of at the cursor when the register was yanked with `v$`
732- Improved performance of opening recently-inactive background agent sessions in `claude agents`
733- Improved auto mode classifier latency by reducing reasoning on routine actions, lowering the chance of "could not evaluate this action" blocks
734- Improved background-session teardown (`claude rm`/`stop`, idle reap) to send SIGTERM to running shell subprocesses before SIGKILL, so cleanup handlers run
735- Removed `CLAUDE_CODE_OPUS_4_6_FAST_MODE_OVERRIDE`; the environment variable is now a no-op
736- Removed the JetBrains plugin install suggestion from startup
737- 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
738
739## 2.1.159
740
741- Internal infrastructure improvements (no user-facing changes)
742
743## 2.1.158
744
745- 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`
746
747## 2.1.157
748
749- Plugins in `.claude/skills` directories are now automatically loaded, no marketplace required
750- Added `claude plugin init <name>` to scaffold a new plugin in `.claude/skills`
751- Added autocomplete for `/plugin` arguments: subcommands, installed plugin names, and plugins from known marketplaces
752- `claude agents`: the `agent` field in `settings.json` is now honored for dispatched sessions, with `--agent <name>` to override it
753- `EnterWorktree` can now switch between Claude-managed worktrees mid-session
754- `tool_decision` telemetry events now include `tool_parameters` (bash commands, MCP/skill names) when `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1`
755- Worktrees managed by Claude are now left unlocked when the agent finishes, so `git worktree remove`/`prune` can clean them up
756- Fixed unprocessable images (zero-byte, corrupt) attached via paste, MCP, or dialog crashing the request instead of becoming a text placeholder
757- Fixed sandbox network permission prompts appearing in auto and bypass-permissions mode when using the desktop app, IDE extensions, or SDK
758- Fixed `claude agents` completed sessions not retiring when an idle subagent was still parked or had leaked a backgrounded shell
759- Fixed `claude agents` pressing Esc not cancelling a slow "opening…", leaving the list unresponsive
760- Fixed background agent worktrees under `.claude/worktrees/` being orphaned after the 30-day job retention sweep
761- Fixed background sessions re-attached after a sleep/wake not telling the model the correct date
762- Fixed copy-on-select in `claude agents` not reaching the system clipboard inside tmux with `set-clipboard on` (regression in 2.1.153)
763- Fixed `--resume` not reporting background subagents that were running when the previous Claude Code process exited
764- Fixed the `--resume` session picker leaving its contents on the terminal after exiting in fullscreen mode
765- Fixed `--worktree` and `--worktree --tmux` returning to the canonical repo root instead of the current linked worktree
766- 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
767- Fixed literal markdown markers (backticks, asterisks) appearing in the in-progress message text in fullscreen mode
768- Fixed the terminal freezing after approving the managed-settings security dialog at startup
769- Fixed a rare duplicate line appearing in scrollback after the terminal UI redraws
770- Fixed right-click paste duplicating the clipboard in the VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf integrated terminals
771- WSL: fixed image paste (`alt+v` keybinding), screenshot paste on Windows 11, and added support for dragging images from Windows Explorer
772- Improved performance of long and resumed conversations by eliminating redundant message-rendering recomputations
773- `/terminal-setup` now disables GPU acceleration in VS Code/Cursor/Windsurf integrated terminals to prevent garbled-text rendering
774- The Feature of the Week credit-claim status now appears as a notification in the status area instead of a line above the prompt
775- `claude agents`: slash-command autocomplete in the dispatch input now matches substrings
776- Removed the "bash commands will be sandboxed" startup banner — sandbox status still shows in `/status` and when a command is blocked
777- Removed the "/ide for …" startup hint toast
778- [IDE] Fixed clicking Stop while a background subagent is running not actually stopping it
779- [VSCode] Fixed the fast mode indicator not appearing on Opus 4.8
780- Pressing backspace right after a workflow trigger keyword now dismisses the workflow request (same as alt+w) instead of deleting a character
781- Added a "Workflow keyword trigger" setting in /config to stop the word "workflow" in a prompt from triggering a dynamic workflow
782
783## 2.1.156
784
785- Fixed an issue when using Opus 4.8 where thinking blocks were modified, leading to API errors.
786
787## 2.1.154
788
789- Opus 4.8 is here! Now defaults to high effort · /effort xhigh for your hardest tasks
790- 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
791- 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
792- The lean system prompt is now the default for all models except Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus 4.7 and earlier
793- 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
794- `/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
795- Renamed the `/effort` slider labels from "Speed"/"Intelligence" to "Faster"/"Smarter" for clarity
796- `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>'`
797- `claude agents`: `/logout` now signs you out instead of being sent to a background session
798- `←←` to open the agents view now works on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, and with telemetry disabled
799- Claude in Chrome: pick which connected browser to use via `/chrome` → "Select browser…", or in-chat when a browser action runs with multiple connected
800- 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
801- The `/plugin` Discover tab now pins plugins whose relevance signals match the current directory with a "suggested for this directory" annotation
802- Streaming tool execution is now always enabled, including when telemetry is disabled or on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry (previously behind a feature flag)
803- Stdio MCP server subprocesses now receive `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` and `CLAUDECODE=1` in their environment
804- `claude mcp list`/`get` now show unapproved `.mcp.json` servers as `⏸ Pending approval` instead of auto-approving and connecting when output is piped
805- `/remote-control` autocomplete now shows "Disconnect Remote Control" when Remote Control is already active
806- Added Claude Opus 4.8 support and 4.7 → 4.8 migration guidance to the `/claude-api` skill
807- 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`
808- Improved the auto-mode classifier's detection of data exfiltration, particularly bulk transfers of repository contents
809- Fixed `rm -rf $HOME` not being blocked as a dangerous path when `HOME` has a trailing slash
810- Fixed `$TMPDIR` resolving to different directories in sandboxed vs unsandboxed Bash commands within the same session
811- Fixed unreadable highlighted-row text in `claude agents` when the Claude Code theme doesn't match the terminal background
812- Fixed background-agent completion notifications triggering premature "out of context" behavior on some 1M-context models
813- Fixed background-session classifier losing the user's goal when a scheduled `/command` fires
814- Fixed pinned background sessions respawning every minute after a Claude Code update, causing repeated agent-start notifications and process churn at idle
815- Fixed background sessions stuck at "blocked", "running", or "working" not retiring after the idle grace period
816- Fixed subagents in background sessions bypassing the worktree-isolation guard and writing to the shared checkout
817- Fixed orphaned `claude --bg-pty-host` processes spinning at 100% CPU after the daemon exits on macOS
818- Fixed number key shortcuts not working for options shown below the divider in option dialogs
819- 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

821- Fixed intermittent terminal rendering corruption in VS Code by capping the number of distinct colors the thinking spinner produces
822- Fixed plan file names including `[Image #N]` / `[Pasted text #N]` placeholders when a plan-mode prompt starts with pasted images or text
823- 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
824- 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
825- Fixed API 400 errors on models that don't support the effort parameter when `CLAUDE_CODE_ALWAYS_ENABLE_EFFORT` is set
826- 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
827- Removed the stale "& for background" hint from the shortcuts help panel
828- [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
829- Fixed the task panel below the prompt showing a stray unselectable "main" row when only a workflow is running
830- Fixed /mcp tools list and tool detail rendering when MCP servers have long or multi-line tool names or long descriptions

832- Fixed auto mode incorrectly blocking actions with "could not evaluate this action" when the safety classifier ran out of output tokens while reasoning
833
834## 2.1.153
835
836- Added `skipLfs` option to `github`/`git` plugin marketplace sources to skip Git LFS downloads during clone and update
837- Claude Code now shows a one-time notice when your npm global install can't auto-update; `/doctor` lists the fixes

841- `claude doctor` now shows the result of your last update attempt
842- Combined the separate "needs authentication" startup notifications for MCP servers and connectors into a single message
843- macOS: background agents now appear as "Claude Code" in Privacy & Security and keep their permission grants across upgrades
844- Fixed stateful MCP servers without the optional GET SSE stream reconnect-looping on `tools/list` (regression in v2.1.147)
845- Fixed a regression where a custom API gateway could receive the user's Anthropic OAuth credential instead of the gateway's own token
846- 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
847- `--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
848- Fixed the Windows PowerShell installer reporting "Installation complete!" when installation actually failed
849- Fixed `claude update` installing the latest version instead of the configured release channel's version for npm installations
850- Fixed excessive memory usage (multiple GB) when resuming a session by transcript file path on machines with many stored sessions
851- Fixed `claude agents` and `claude --bg` running on a stale daemon started before binary-takeover support, even after upgrading
852- 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
853- Fixed malformed `file://` links in Claude's responses not being clickable in the terminal
854- Fixed `claude --help` rendering unwrapped output on terminals narrower than 92 columns
855- Fixed MCP tool progress notifications not rendering in the collapsed tool view
856- Fixed `Agent` tool with `subagent_type: 'claude'` running in an undocumented temporary worktree, which could silently discard outputs written to gitignored paths
857- `/bg` while Claude is responding now continues the response in the background session instead of dropping it
858- Fixed `/btw` keyboard shortcuts becoming unresponsive in background sessions while a task is running
859- Fixed background sessions writing temp files to `$CLAUDE_JOB_DIR` triggering a "sensitive file" permission prompt
860- Fixed recovering a background agent whose working directory was deleted showing a truncated stack trace instead of a clear error message
861- Fixed `EnterWorktree` not being available immediately in background sessions (previously required `ToolSearch` first)
862- Fixed `cmd+k` in iTerm2/Terminal.app not repainting attached background sessions
863- 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
864- Fixed background-color bleed when attaching to a background agent from 256-color-only terminals after the agent had rendered file diffs
865- Fixed `/copy` and copy-on-select silently failing to update the system clipboard when attached to a background session inside tmux
866- Fixed opening `claude agents` with Remote Control enabled leaving zombie session entries on the Code tab after exiting
867- Fixed `/rename` in background sessions not updating the session banner immediately
868- Fixed Windows update rollback: if a Windows update fails, Claude Code now restores the original executable by copy and tells you how to recover
869- [VSCode] Fixed Claude Code processes not shutting down cleanly when VS Code closed on Windows, causing false "unclean exit" reports and orphaned MCP servers
870- `/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.
871- If you customized the `modelPicker:setAsDefault` keybinding, rename it to `modelPicker:thisSessionOnly` in keybindings.json (the `d` action was replaced by `s`)
872
873## 2.1.152
874
875- `/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`
876- Skills and slash commands can now set `disallowed-tools` in frontmatter to remove tools from the model while the skill is active
877- Added `/reload-skills` command to re-scan skill directories without restarting the session
878- `SessionStart` hooks can now return `reloadSkills: true` to re-scan skill directories, making skills installed by the hook available in the same session
879- `SessionStart` hooks can now set the session title via `hookSpecificOutput.sessionTitle` on startup and resume
880- Added a `MessageDisplay` hook event that lets hooks transform or hide assistant message text as it is displayed
881- Added `pluginSuggestionMarketplaces` managed setting: admins can allowlist org marketplaces whose plugins may be suggested via context-aware tips
882- `claude plugin marketplace remove` now accepts `--scope user|project|local` for symmetry with `marketplace add`, `install`, and `uninstall`
883- 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
884- Auto mode no longer requires opt-in consent
885- Vim mode: `/` in NORMAL mode now opens reverse history search (like Ctrl+R), matching bash/zsh vi-mode
886- The `/usage` breakdown now includes large session files; files are scanned with a streaming read so memory usage stays flat
887- 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)
888- 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
889- Simplified the Workflow tool's inline progress display — live agent counts now show only in the persistent workflow status row below the prompt
890- 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
891- Added the session entrypoint as an OpenTelemetry metric attribute (`app.entrypoint`, opt-in via `OTEL_METRICS_INCLUDE_ENTRYPOINT=true`)
892- Fixed terminal styling degrading in very long sessions by recycling the renderer's style pool
893- Fixed the sandbox-enabled warning not appearing in condensed startup mode — it now shows in every layout
894- 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
895- Fixed focus mode showing a spurious "N messages hidden" count on turns with no hidden activity
896- Fixed clicking a link inside an expanded tool result collapsing the section instead of opening the link
897- 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
898- Fixed plugin MCP servers with the same command but different environment variables being incorrectly deduplicated
899- Fixed `/doctor` reporting "marketplace not found" or "plugin not found" for stale `enabledPlugins` entries referencing removed marketplaces or dropped plugins
900- Fixed plugins that track a git branch silently no longer receiving updates after the plugin registry was rebuilt
901- Fixed remote MCP servers failing to connect in Claude Code Remote sessions when the egress proxy is enabled
902- 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
903- Fixed the Agent tool description referencing an agent list that is never delivered when running with `--bare` or with attachments disabled
904- Fixed a background worker crash in `claude agents` when accepting a stale permission prompt after a subagent was cancelled
905- 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
906- Fixed the PushNotification tool incorrectly reporting "Mobile push not sent (Remote Control inactive)" in SDK-hosted sessions when Remote Control is enabled
907- 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
908
909## 2.1.150
910
911- Internal infrastructure improvements (no user-facing changes)
912
913## 2.1.149
914
915- `/usage` now shows a per-category breakdown of what's driving your limits usage — skills, subagents, plugins, and per-MCP-server cost
916- `/diff` detail view can now be scrolled with the keyboard (arrows, `j`/`k`, `PgUp`/`PgDn`, `Space`, `Home`/`End`)
917- Markdown output now renders GFM task list checkboxes (`- [ ] todo` / `- [x] done`) instead of plain bullets
918- Enterprise: added the `allowAllClaudeAiMcps` managed setting to load claude.ai cloud MCP connectors alongside `managed-mcp.json`
919- 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
920- 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)
921- Fixed PowerShell prefix/wildcard allow rules (e.g. `PowerShell(dotnet.exe build *)`) not pre-approving native executables and scripts
922- Fixed a permission-analysis gap where the parser trusted stale variable-tracking values for `PWD`/`OLDPWD`/`DIRSTACK` across `cd`/`pushd`/`popd`
923- Fixed `find` in the Bash tool exhausting the macOS system file/vnode table and crashing the host on large directory trees
924- Fixed the managed-settings approval dialog leaving the terminal frozen after accepting at startup
925- Fixed `/ultraplan` and remote session creation failing with "Could not capture uncommitted changes" when the working tree has no real changes
926- Fixed `otelHeadersHelper` failing silently when the script path contains spaces; helper failures are now reported in `/doctor` and the debug log
927- Fixed the thinking spinner staying amber across tool calls and onto fresh thinking bursts
928- Fixed collapsed Bash output reporting the wrong hidden-line count for outputs with many short lines
929- Fixed slash-command argument-hint clipping trailing typed characters when the hint overflows the input box
930- Fixed argument-hint and progressive arg suggestions not appearing after Tab-completing a skill whose frontmatter `name:` differs from its directory basename
931- Fixed the status bar showing the user's baseline `/effort` setting instead of the effort level applied by skill/agent `effort:` frontmatter
932- Fixed Ctrl+O transcript view freezing at the moment it was opened instead of tailing new messages
933- Fixed editing a recalled prompt-history entry losing the edit when navigating further up/down with arrow keys
934- Fixed `/config` exit summary reporting phantom changes to auto-compact and theme when toggling unrelated settings
935- Fixed `/insights` crashing when cached session-meta files are missing optional fields
936- Fixed malformed PowerShell and History tool calls with missing input being misclassified as reads in transcript collapsing
937- Fixed renaming a Remote Control session from claude.ai or the Claude mobile app not updating the local session name for `claude --resume`
938- Fixed a race where a just-submitted prompt could appear twice in the up-arrow history
939- Fixed tapping the "Jump to bottom" pill in fullscreen mode not dismissing it immediately
940- Improved `/feedback` reports to include the conversation that happened before context compaction, making issues from earlier in long sessions easier to triage
941
942## 2.1.148
943
944- Fixed the Bash tool returning exit code 127 on every command for some users (a regression introduced in 2.1.147)
945
946## 2.1.147
947
948- 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
949- 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
950- 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
951- Improved diff rendering performance for large file edits
952- Prompt history no longer records consecutive duplicate entries — recalling a prompt with arrow-up and submitting it again won't add another copy
953- Fixed enterprise login restrictions (`forceLoginOrgUUID` and `forceLoginMethod` managed-settings) not being enforced against third-party-provider and API-key sessions
954- Fixed `&` in `!` command output displaying as `&amp;`, which broke copy-pasting URLs from commands like `gcloud auth login` on headless machines
955- Fixed unknown slash commands silently doing nothing in headless/SDK mode — they now show an error message
956- Fixed `/help` rendering a broken tab header and showing only one command per page on small terminals when not in fullscreen mode
957- Fixed shell snapshot dropping user functions whose names start with a single underscore, which broke aliases referencing them
958- Fixed plugin agents that declare multiple `Agent(...)` types in `tools:` frontmatter dropping all but the last entry
959- Fixed hook `if` conditions like `PowerShell(git push*)` never matching — only `PowerShell(*)` worked
960- Fixed PowerShell tool dropping output for commands that rely on the default formatter
961- Fixed: on Windows, "Yes, and don't ask again" for a PowerShell script invocation now writes a rule that actually matches on subsequent runs
962- Fixed PowerShell tool failing on Windows with exit code 1 when `pwsh` is installed via winget or the Microsoft Store
963- Fixed `/effort` opening with the slider on the wrong level — it now starts at your current effort
964- Fixed paginating MCP servers dropping resources, templates, and prompts past page 1
965- Fixed full-screen strobing in attached background sessions on Windows Terminal while Claude is streaming
966- Fixed: on Windows, removing a background-job worktree no longer follows NTFS junctions into the main repo
967- Fixed `/background` refusing sessions whose only typed input was a skill or custom slash command
968- 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
969- Fixed `/theme` "New custom theme" and color editor dialogs not responding to Esc
970- Fixed an uncaught exception at the end of streaming sessions when running via the Agent SDK
971- Fixed a rare hang when waiting for scroll to settle on Windows
972- Fixed stale and doubled rows in the agent view list on Windows when background session results contain wide (CJK) characters
973- Fixed pasted text being delivered to agents as an unreadable `[Pasted text #N]` placeholder instead of the actual content
974- Fixed plugin component counts in `claude plugin details` and `/plugin` being doubled when a plugin's manifest listed paths overlapping its default directories
975- Fixed backgrounded sessions re-prompting for tool permissions you already granted with "don't ask again"
976- Fixed GNOME Terminal right-click and middle-click paste not inserting text
977- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_SUBAGENT_MODEL` not applying to teammate processes spawned by agent teams
978- Fixed slash commands followed by a tab or newline being treated as an unknown command
979- Fixed several spacing and layout glitches in the `/plugin`, `/status`, `/mobile`, `/sandbox`, and `/permissions` menus
980- Fixed stripped images prompting the model to repeatedly re-read media that was no longer present
981
982## 2.1.145
983
984- Added `claude agents --json` to list live Claude sessions as JSON for scripting (tmux-resurrect, status bars, session pickers)
985- 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
986- Status line JSON input now includes GitHub repo and PR information when detected
987- `/plugin` Discover and Browse screens now show a plugin's commands, agents, skills, hooks, and MCP/LSP servers before installation
988- `claude agents` terminal tab title now shows the awaiting-input count so an alt-tabbed window tells you when an agent needs attention
989- Slash command and @-mention suggestion list now supports mouse hover and click in fullscreen mode
990- Stop and SubagentStop hook input now includes `background_tasks` and `session_crons` fields
991- Fixed a permission-prompt bypass where bare variable assignments to non-allowlisted environment variables in Bash commands were auto-approved
992- 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
993- Fixed the spinner and elapsed-time display freezing until a keypress after the terminal was resized or refocused
994- Fixed the cross-project resume hint failing in default Windows PowerShell 5.1 — Windows now uses `;` as the command separator
995- Fixed voice push-to-talk not working in the agent view's reply pane
996- Fixed task lists rendering in random order when several tasks are created at once
997- Fixed stale "Failed to install Anthropic marketplace" banner showing when the marketplace is already installed
998- Fixed the PR badge in the footer not updating immediately after `gh pr create` and other PR-state-changing commands run in-session
999- Fixed Agent Teams teammates with non-ASCII names failing every API call due to invalid header encoding
1000- Fixed `/review` using a deprecated `projectCards` GraphQL query that errored on repos with Classic Projects
1001- Fixed `claude plugin validate` not flagging `skills:` entries that point at a file instead of a directory — the error now suggests the parent directory
1002- Fixed an infinite loop where a skill using `context: fork` could repeatedly re-invoke itself instead of running
1003- 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
1004
1005## 2.1.144
1006
1007- Added `/resume` support for background sessions — sessions started via `claude --bg` or agent view now appear alongside interactive ones, marked with `bg`
1008- Added elapsed duration to background subagent completion notifications (e.g. "Agent completed · 3h 2m 5s")
1009- The `/plugin` browse and discover panes now show when a plugin was last updated
1010- `/model` now changes the model for the current session only; press `d` in the model picker to set a default for new sessions
1011- Renamed "extra usage" to "usage credits" across CLI copy; `/extra-usage` is now `/usage-credits` (old name still works)
1012- 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
1013- 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
1014- Fixed progressive terminal display corruption (stale/garbled glyphs) that could appear in very long sessions and only cleared on terminal resize or restart
1015- Reduced terminal rendering glitches in VS Code by reducing spinner animation color count
1016- 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)
1017- 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
1018- 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
1019- Fixed `/branch` failing with "No conversation to branch" after entering a worktree or in some background sessions
1020- Fixed pressing Escape in the AskUserQuestion notes field aborting the turn instead of returning to answer selection
1021- Fixed model selection not applying when changed via the IDE model picker or `applyFlagSettings` after startup
1022- Resumed sessions now keep the model they were using instead of picking up another session's `/model` choice
1023- Fixed Bedrock and Vertex users unable to select "Opus (1M context)" from the `/model` picker (regression in v2.1.129)
1024- Fixed remote-session login failing with "Can't access this organization" for users with `forceLoginMethod` and `forceLoginOrgUUID` set
1025- Fixed MCP servers with paginated `tools/list` responses only returning the first page, silently dropping tools
1026- Fixed MCP images with unsupported MIME types (e.g. SVG) breaking the conversation — now saved to disk and referenced in the tool result
1027- Fixed file descriptor exhaustion when a build runs inside a skill directory — non-`.md` files no longer trigger skill reloads
1028- Fixed session title being generated from plugin monitor output instead of the user's first prompt
1029- Fixed Skill tool failing with permission error in headless mode (regression in v2.1.141)
1030- 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
1031- 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
1032- 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
1033- Fixed scrolling in attached background sessions on Windows — PgUp/PgDn, mouse wheel, and Ctrl+O transcript navigation now work
1034- Fixed a crash when closing the terminal while attached to a background session
1035- Fixed on Windows, pressing ← in `claude agents` leaving the list unresponsive to keyboard input
1036- Fixed ghost characters at the left edge when switching panes in Agent View on Windows Terminal with CJK content
1037- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve directories added via `/add-dir`
1038- Fixed Edit/Write refusing with "background session hasn't isolated its changes yet" right after detaching a session that was already editing in place
1039- Fixed `claude respawn <id>` on a stopped background session showing "stopped" instead of running
1040- Fixed `/resume` picker not showing sessions forked from a background session
1041- 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
1042- Fixed background Bash tasks spawned by subagents staying "Running" in SDK task panels after the process exits
1043- Fixed completed or stopped background sessions briefly failing to wake being permanently marked as a startup crash
1044- Fixed markdown links in `claude agents` attached sessions rendering as plain text instead of clickable hyperlinks
1045- Fixed custom `spinnerVerbs` applying to the post-turn duration message — past-tense built-ins like "Worked for 5s" are restored there
1046- `claude agents` / `--bg` rejection messages now name the specific gate (non-TTY, env var, or setting) instead of a generic message
1047- `claude --bg --name <label>` now echoes the name in the post-spawn confirmation
1048- `claude agents`: renaming a background session with Ctrl+R now updates the attached session's banner immediately
1049- Background session worktree isolation guard now applies for non-git VCS users with `WorktreeCreate` hooks configured
1050- Plugin marketplace add/update now respects `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS`
1051- `/plugin` now returns to the Installed list after enabling, disabling, or uninstalling a plugin
1052- `/doctor` now shows an exec-form example when a command hook is missing the `command` field
1053- Skill-listing truncation is no longer shown as a startup notification — run `/doctor` for the full breakdown
1054- Improved recovery from rare pre-response stream stalls — now retries streaming once instead of falling back to a slower non-streaming request
1055- 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)
1056- 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.
1057
1058## 2.1.143
1059
1060- 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
1061- Added projected context cost (per-turn and per-invocation token estimates) to the `/plugin` marketplace browse pane
1062- Added `worktree.bgIsolation: "none"` setting to let background sessions edit the working copy directly without `EnterWorktree`, for repos where worktrees are impractical
1063- PowerShell tool now passes `-ExecutionPolicy Bypass`. Opt out with `CLAUDE_CODE_POWERSHELL_RESPECT_EXECUTION_POLICY=1`
1064- Background sessions now preserve the model and effort level you set after waking from idle
1065- Shift+Tab in attached agent sessions now includes auto mode in the cycle
1066- Fixed a corrupt `.credentials.json` with a non-array `scopes` value hanging the CLI on startup or silently aborting OAuth token refresh
1067- Fixed right-click paste in `claude agents` on Windows Terminal and WSL
1068- 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`)
1069- Fixed Esc/Ctrl+C not cancelling a pending `/loop` wakeup while Claude is idle between iterations
1070- Fixed `/goal` evaluator firing while background shells or delegated subagents are still running
1071- Fixed `NO_COLOR`/`FORCE_COLOR` in settings.json `env` stripping Claude Code's own UI colors — they now apply to subprocesses only
1072- Fixed agent view spawning repeated PowerShell processes on Windows when listing sessions
1073- Fixed `/bg` without a prompt sending "continue" to the forked session — the fork now waits for input
1074- Fixed `--agent <name>` not finding plugin-contributed agents without the `plugin:` prefix
1075- Fixed deleting a session from agent view not removing its transcript file
1076- Fixed stale-fragment rendering when scrolling in attached background sessions on Windows Terminal
1077- Fixed background agents false-positive worker-stall detection storm after host sleep or macOS App Nap
1078- Fixed 5xx error messages pointing at status.claude.com instead of naming the configured gateway or cloud provider
1079- 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`.
1080- `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
1081- `claude agents` accepts `--permission-mode`, `--model`, `--effort`, and `--dangerously-skip-permissions` to set defaults for sessions dispatched from the view
1082- `claude --bg --dangerously-skip-permissions` now persists across retire→wake
1083- 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`
1084- Worktree cleanup no longer falls back to `rm -rf` when `git worktree remove` fails, preventing loss of gitignored or in-progress files
1085- 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.
1086- `/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.
1087- Background sessions launched from `claude agents` now honor `permissions.defaultMode` from settings.json (was previously overridden to auto mode)
1088- Fixed: on Windows, pressing ← in `claude agents` while a response was streaming could leave the agents list unresponsive to all input
1089- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve `--fallback-model`, so backgrounded workers degrade to the fallback model on overload instead of hard-failing.
1090- `/bg` and `←`-detach now preserve `--allow-dangerously-skip-permissions`, so the forked worker keeps bypass-permissions available in its Shift+Tab cycle.
1091- Fixed: background daemon spawn now falls back to the running binary when the `~/.local/bin/claude` launcher is missing or non-executable
1092- Fixed `claude agents --allow-dangerously-skip-permissions` defaulting dispatched sessions to bypass mode instead of making it available in the permission cycle
1093
1094## 2.1.142
1095
1096- 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
1097- 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
1098- Plugins with a root-level `SKILL.md` and no `skills/` subdirectory are now surfaced as a skill
1099- The `/plugin` details pane and `claude plugin details` now show LSP servers a plugin provides
1100- `/web-setup` warns before replacing an existing GitHub App connection
1101- 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
1102- Fixed background sessions not recognizing pre-existing git worktrees, blocking Edit while EnterWorktree refused to create a duplicate
1103- 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
1104- Fixed daemon not exiting cleanly after the binary is upgraded (e.g. `brew upgrade`), causing dispatched agents to crash-loop on the deleted path
1105- Fixed background agents crash-looping when the Claude-in-Chrome extension is connected without a shared tab
1106- Fixed clicking links in an attached `claude agents` session — the background worker's headless browser shim no longer applies while attached
1107- Fixed `claude agents` "v to open in editor" using the daemon's default editor instead of your shell's `$EDITOR`/`$VISUAL`
1108- Fixed `claude agents` deadlocking on Windows with network-drive working directories; Ctrl+C now works during startup
1109- Fixed background-color bleed when attaching to a `claude agents` session from Apple Terminal or other 256-color-only terminals
1110- Fixed `claude --bg --dangerously-skip-permissions` not persisting across retire/wake
1111- Fixed session titles being derived from the URL when the first message is a link
1112- Fixed redundant `set_model` requests from remote clients injecting duplicate `/model` breadcrumbs into the transcript
1113- Fixed plugins using `skills: ["./"]` showing a false "path escapes plugin directory" error
1114- Fixed plugin cache cleanup deleting the active plugin version directory when no installation metadata is present
1115- Fixed `/plugin` browse pane showing "0 installs" for newly published plugins
1116- Fixed plugin advisories not naming every `plugin.json` key that shadows a default folder
1117- Improved reactive compaction: the first summarize attempt now seeds from the original request's overflow size, avoiding a wasted near-full-context retry
1118- 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
1119- Removed stale `/model claude-sonnet-4-20250514` suggestion from Usage Policy refusal messages
1120
1121## 2.1.141
1122
1123- Added `terminalSequence` field to hook JSON output so hooks can emit desktop notifications, window titles, and bells without a controlling terminal
1124- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS` to clone GitHub plugin sources over HTTPS instead of SSH, for environments without a GitHub SSH key
1125- 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
1126- Added `claude agents --cwd <path>` to scope the session list to a directory
1127- `/feedback` can now include recent sessions (last 24 hours or 7 days) for issues spanning more than the current session
1128- Rewind menu: added "Summarize up to here" to compress earlier context while keeping recent turns intact
1129- Auto mode permission dialog now explains when a `permissions.ask` rule caused the prompt
1130- Restored the "view diff in your IDE" option on file-edit permission prompts when an IDE is connected
1131- Background agents launched via `/bg` or `←←` now preserve the current permission mode instead of reverting to default
1132- `claude agents`: agents that finish work but leave a background shell running now move to Completed instead of staying under Working
1133- Improved spinner feedback during long thinking periods — the spinner now warms to amber after 10 seconds to signal Claude is still working
1134- Improved plugin menu navigation: `→`/Tab switch tabs, `↑` moves to the tab strip, and tab headers and search box are clickable in fullscreen mode
1135- 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
1136- 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
1137- Fixed `claude agents` showing the agent-type list instead of the dashboard when launched through a wrapper that adds flags
1138- Fixed `claude agents` opening a crashed session firing redundant dispatches when the working directory was deleted
1139- 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
1140- Fixed `/model` in one session silently changing the autocompact threshold in other concurrent sessions
1141- Fixed switching permission mode while a tool-permission prompt is open not auto-dismissing the prompt when the new setting permits the tool
1142- Fixed pressing Enter while a permission/dialog prompt is open also submitting text in the input box
1143- Fixed hooks receiving a non-existent `transcript_path` after `EnterWorktree` switches the working directory
1144- Fixed markdown tables with cell wrapping falling back to the vertical key-value layout instead of rendering as a bordered grid (regression in 2.1.136)
1145- Fixed cancelled prompts being removed from Up-arrow history when auto-restored into the input box, avoiding duplicate entries
1146- Fixed prompts cancelled with Ctrl+C/Esc before any response being dropped from Up-arrow history
1147- Fixed Ctrl+C not interrupting a running turn while in vim INSERT/VISUAL mode
1148- Fixed alternative `chat:submit` keybindings (e.g. `meta+enter`, `ctrl+enter`) not working when `enter` is rebound to `chat:newline`
1149- Fixed prompt suggestions being silently disabled when an output style was configured
1150- Fixed `spinnerVerbs` setting not being honored in turn-completion messages
1151- Fixed AskUserQuestion popup hiding the last line of preceding chat content
1152- Fixed Web Search status showing "Did 0 searches" when searches returned errors
1153- Fixed multi-line statusline output dropping or corrupting rows when any line exceeds terminal width
1154- Fixed light-ansi theme using invisible white for diff context lines on light backgrounds — now uses black
1155- Fixed error overlay dumping minified bundle source that hid the original error message
1156- Fixed pressing Enter after typing a feedback survey rating digit submitting it as a chat message instead of the rating
1157- Fixed pressing `x` on a selected subagent in the agent panel typing into the prompt instead of stopping the agent
1158- Fixed session title being derived from plugin monitor notifications before the user's first prompt
1159- Fixed "Allowed by PermissionRequest hook" repeating once per tool call under a collapsed read/search group
1160- Fixed `/tui` silently dropping running background shells and subagents — now refuses and asks to wait for them to finish
1161- Fixed welcome banner showing "API Usage Billing" on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, and other third-party providers — now shows the provider name
1162- Fixed `/mcp` server list not keeping the focused server visible in short terminals in fullscreen mode
1163- Fixed redaction in `/feedback` bundles producing invalid JSON for quoted values like session IDs
1164- Fixed desktop and third-party provider sessions incorrectly inheriting `apiKeyHelper`/`ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` from host managed-settings
1165- Fixed early analytics events being silently dropped when fired before logger initialization
1166- Fixed `claude plugin install` failing for plugins whose marketplace `ref` no longer exists upstream when a `sha` is also pinned
1167- Fixed plugin details pane showing 0 MCP servers for plugins that declare them via `.mcp.json`
1168- 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
1169- Fixed MCP server configs using POSIX shell parameter expansions (e.g. `${var%pattern}`) being incorrectly flagged as missing environment variables
1170- Fixed MCP HTTP/SSE servers returning 403 on connect showing as "failed" instead of "needs auth"
1171- Fixed remote MCP servers disconnecting unnecessarily when the optional server-events stream failed to reconnect — tool calls continue over POST
1172- Fixed Remote Control MCP connectors all failing with 401 when the worker session token rotated mid-session
1173- Fixed Remote Control automatically re-enrolling a trusted device when the server rejects a stale token, instead of looping through `/login`
1174- Fixed a race where early OTel spans could be silently dropped in SDK/headless mode with beta tracing enabled
1175- Fixed custom `voice:pushToTalk` keybindings and `"space": null` unbinds being silently ignored
1176- Fixed Windows Alt+V image paste reporting "no image found" when the clipboard contains a screenshot
1177- Fixed SDK "Claude Code native binary not found" on Linux when both glibc and musl platform packages are installed
1178- Bedrock: `awsCredentialExport` now always runs when configured instead of being skipped when ambient AWS credentials resolve, fixing auth for cross-account access
1179- [VSCode] Fixed in-chat mic showing no feedback when the microphone produced only silence — now shows "No audio detected"
1180- [VSCode] Voice mode: the WSL error now suggests installing `sox libsox-fmt-pulse` for WSLg users
1181- `claude agents`: launching a session no longer fails when the pre-warmed background worker is unhealthy — now falls back to a fresh launch
1182- `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
1183- Empty idle background sessions left over from `←` are now automatically retired by the daemon after 5 minutes
1184
1185## 2.1.140
1186
1187- Improved Agent tool `subagent_type` matching to accept case- and separator-insensitive values (e.g. `"Code Reviewer"` resolves to `code-reviewer`)
1188- Updated agent color palette
1189- Fixed `/goal` silently hanging when `disableAllHooks` or `allowManagedHooksOnly` is set — now shows a clear message instead of an indicator that never resolves
1190- Fixed a regression in settings hot-reload where symlinked settings files caused misattributed change events and spurious `ConfigChange` hooks
1191- Fixed `claude --bg` failing with "connection dropped mid-request" when the background service was about to idle-exit
1192- Fixed background service startup failing on machines with enterprise endpoint security by allowing more time
1193- Fixed remote managed settings not retrying on 401 — now retries once with a force-refreshed token
1194- Fixed managed `extraKnownMarketplaces` auto-update policy not being persisted to `known_marketplaces.json`
1195- Fixed `/loop` scheduling redundant wakeups to poll for background tasks that already notify on completion
1196- Fixed a recurring event-loop stall on Windows when a missing executable (e.g. `gh`) triggered synchronous `where.exe` re-spawns on every check
1197- Fixed `Read` tool calls failing validation when `offset` is passed as a whitespace-padded or `+`-prefixed string
1198- Fixed native terminal cursor not staying at the input caret when the terminal loses focus
1199- 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`.
1200
1201## 2.1.139
1202
1203- 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
1204- 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
1205- Added `/scroll-speed` command to tune mouse wheel scroll speed with a live preview
1206- Added `claude plugin details <name>` to show a plugin's component inventory and projected per-session token cost
1207- Added transcript view navigation: `?` for keyboard shortcuts, `{`/`}` to jump between user prompts, `v` to toggle shortcut panel
1208- Added hook `args: string[]` field (exec form) that spawns the command directly without a shell, so path placeholders never need quoting
1209- Added hook `continueOnBlock` config option for `PostToolUse` — set to `true` to feed the hook's rejection reason back to Claude and continue the turn
1210- MCP stdio servers now receive `CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR` in their environment, matching hooks. Plugin configs can reference `${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR}` in commands
1211- Compaction prompt now asks the model to preserve sensitive user instructions
1212- `/mcp` Reconnect now picks up `.mcp.json` edits without a restart, and shows the HTTP status and URL when reconnecting fails
1213- `/context all` per-skill token estimates now account for the model's tokenizer and show rounded values
1214- `claude plugin install <name>@<marketplace>` now auto-refreshes the marketplace and retries before reporting a plugin as not found
1215- `/plugin` installed-plugin details now show hook event names and MCP server names cleanly
1216- `/context` now shows the providing plugin's name for plugin-sourced skills
1217- Remote MCP server reconnect retry on transient failures is now enabled for all users
1218- API requests from subagents now carry `x-claude-code-agent-id` / `x-claude-code-parent-agent-id` headers, and `claude_code.llm_request` OTEL spans include `agent_id` / `parent_agent_id` attributes
1219- Remote Control, `/schedule`, claude.ai MCP connectors, and notification preferences are now disabled when `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` / `apiKeyHelper` / `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` is set, even if a Claude.ai login also exists. Unset the API key to use these features
1220- Fixed a deadlock where expired credentials and the `forceRemoteSettingsRefresh` policy setting blocked `claude auth login`/`logout`/`status` with no way to recover
1221- Fixed `autoAllowBashIfSandboxed` not auto-approving commands with shell expansions like `$VAR` and `$(cmd)`
1222- Fixed a bug where a hook writing to the terminal could corrupt an on-screen interactive prompt; hooks now run without terminal access
1223- Fixed unbounded memory growth when an HTTP/SSE MCP server streams non-protocol data — response bodies now capped at 16 MB per SSE frame
1224- Fixed `Skill(name *)` permission rules — the wildcard form now works as a prefix match, matching `Bash(ls *)` behavior
1225- Fixed settings hot-reload not detecting edits to symlinked `~/.claude/settings.json`
1226- Fixed plugin details failing to load when the marketplace key differs from the manifest name
1227- Fixed `/model` picker "Default" row not reflecting `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL`/`ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL` overrides
1228- Fixed spurious "stream idle timeout" 5 minutes after a response completed, caused by the watchdog timer not being cleared on stream cancellation
1229- Fixed silent `exit 1` when 10+ MCP servers are configured and the cache directory is unwritable — the error message now includes the underlying cause
1230- Fixed a typing cursor blinking on tab names, list pointers, and select rows in dialogs
1231- Fixed transcript view letter shortcuts not working after mouse click
1232- Fixed Bash-mode up-arrow history repeating the first entry and clobbering the in-progress draft
1233- Fixed pasting or dropping multiple images only inserting the last one
1234- Fixed hyperlinks using unreadable dark navy on dark themes — they now adapt to the active theme
1235- Fixed model picker showing a redundant "Current model" row for third-party users whose model is set to the `opus` alias
1236- Fixed legacy Opus picker entry on PAYG 3P providers resolving to the same model as the default entry
1237- 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
1238- Fixed scroll behavior in Windows Terminal and VS Code when attached to background sessions
1239- Fixed MCP resources from disconnected servers lingering in `@server:` autocomplete
1240- Fixed two-file diff snippets over-reporting the number of truncated lines by one

1249- Fixed keybindings using only the cmd/super/win modifier being flagged as unparseable
1250- Fixed `claude_code.active_time.total` OpenTelemetry metric not being emitted in `--print` mode
1251- Fixed `claude plugin update` not preserving cross-plugin symlinks inside a marketplace
1252- [VSCode] Press Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+T to reopen the most recently closed session tab, configurable via `claudeCode.enableReopenClosedSessionShortcut`

1262## 2.1.136
1263
1264- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FEEDBACK_SURVEY_FOR_OTEL` to re-enable the session quality survey for enterprises capturing responses through OpenTelemetry
1265- Added `settings.autoMode.hard_deny` for auto mode classifier rules that block unconditionally regardless of user intent or allow exceptions
1266- 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
1267- Fixed a rare login loop where a concurrent credential write could overwrite a freshly-rotated OAuth token and force re-login
1268- 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
1269- Fixed an API error (400) when extended thinking emitted a redacted thinking block after a tool call
1270- Fixed `--resume` / `--continue` not finding sessions when the project path contains underscores
1271- Fixed plan mode not blocking file writes when a matching `Edit(...)` allow rule exists
1272- WSL2: image paste from Windows clipboard now works via a PowerShell fallback when xclip/wl-paste cannot read image data
1273- Fixed plugin `Stop`/`UserPromptSubmit` hooks failing when cache cleanup deletes a version still in use by a running session
1274- 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
1275- Fixed colors appearing at wrong positions in bash command output and markdown code blocks
1276- Fixed ReasonML diffs rendering corrupted "undefined" text artifacts at word-diff boundaries
1277- Fixed worktree exit dialog warning about uncommitted files in the wrong directory after worktree removal

1285- Fixed a renderer crash when a tool's collapsibility classification changes mid-session
1286- 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
1287- Fixed IDE shell-integration lock files not respecting `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`
1288- Fixed trailing whitespace in copied terminal output during streaming
1289- Fixed plugin uninstall and enable/disable not matching slugs case-insensitively

1299- Fixed `/clear <name>` not labeling the cleared session for `/resume`
1300- Fixed `CronList` output missing qualifiers and the scheduled prompt

1304- Fixed `/release-notes` getting stuck on an old version after a failed changelog refresh
1305- Fixed `/mcp` server list not scrolling when there are more servers than fit in the terminal
1306- Fixed mid-input slash command autocomplete not working after an initial slash command
1307- Fixed scrolling to bottom re-engaging auto-follow with `autoScrollEnabled: false`

1313- Fixed MCP tool results being invisible when the server returns content blocks
1314- Improved error message when `--worktree` collides with an existing or stale worktree
1315- Changed plugin marketplace removal key to `d` (matching delete elsewhere) instead of `r` which collided with retry
1316
1317## 2.1.133
1318
1319- 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
1320- Added `sandbox.bwrapPath` and `sandbox.socatPath` managed settings (Linux/WSL) to specify custom bubblewrap and socat binary locations
1321- Added `parentSettingsBehavior` admin-tier key (`'first-wins' | 'merge'`) to let admins opt SDK `managedSettings` (parent tier) into the policy merge
1322- 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`

1324- Improved memory usage by releasing warm-spare background workers under memory pressure
1325- Fixed parallel sessions all dead-ending at 401 after a refresh-token race wiped shared credentials

1328- Fixed pressing Esc during conversation compaction showing a spurious "Error compacting conversation" notification
1329- 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
1330- Fixed Read/Write/Edit being denied on mapped network drives passed via `--add-dir` / SDK `additionalDirectories`
1331- 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
1332- 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
1333- Fixed subagents not discovering project, user, or plugin skills via the Skill tool
1334- `claude --help` now lists `--remote-control` alongside `--remote-control-session-name-prefix`
1335- [VSCode] Fixed `claudeCode.claudeProcessWrapper` failing with "Unsupported platform" when the extension build doesn't bundle a Claude binary
1336
1337## 2.1.132
1338
1339- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` environment variable to the Bash tool subprocess environment, matching the `session_id` passed to hooks
1340- 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
1341- Added a "Pasting…" footer hint while a Ctrl+V image paste is being read from the clipboard
1342- 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
1343- Fixed an uncaught exception when the terminal is closed or SSH disconnects mid-session under the native build
1344- Fixed `--resume` failing with `no low surrogate in string` when a tool error truncation split an emoji; pre-corrupted sessions are sanitized on load
1345- 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
1346- Fixed fullscreen mode showing a blank screen after laptop sleep/wake or Ctrl+Z/`fg` until the next keystroke or stream output
1347- Fixed cursor landing mid-grapheme on Ctrl+E/A/K/U/arrow keys when an Indic conjunct or ZWJ emoji wraps across lines
1348- Fixed vim operators corrupting text containing decomposed (NFD) accented characters
1349- Fixed pasting text starting with `/` silently swallowing the input or triggering an unknown-command reply

1351- Fixed mouse wheel scrolling being too fast in Cursor and VS Code 1.92–1.104 due to an upstream xterm.js bug
1352- Fixed scroll-wheel handling in JetBrains IDE 2025.2 terminals (spurious arrow keys, wrong-direction events, runaway acceleration)
1353- Fixed `/usage` Ctrl+S hanging when copying the stats screenshot to the clipboard on Linux/X11
1354- Fixed `/terminal-setup` showing a contradictory error in Windows Terminal — Shift+Enter is natively supported there
1355- Fixed `/effort` picker not reflecting the `CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL` env var override
1356- Fixed `/status` showing the wrong default model for some users
1357- Fixed slash command autocomplete popup being capped at ~3–5 visible commands instead of scaling with terminal height

1361- Fixed unbounded memory growth (10GB+ RSS) when a stdio MCP server writes non-protocol data to stdout
1362- 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`
1363- Fixed unauthorized claude.ai MCP connectors showing as "failed" instead of "needs auth", and headless `-p` mode retrying non-transient 4xx connection failures
1364- Improved visual consistency in slash command dialogs and `/login`, `/upgrade`, `/extra-usage` dialog spacing
1365- Updated the `/tui fullscreen` startup banner to describe additional renderer benefits (lower memory usage, mouse support, auto-copy on select)
1366- Fixed Bedrock and Vertex 400 errors when `ENABLE_PROMPT_CACHING_1H` is set
1367
1368## 2.1.131
1369

1377- 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
1378- Plugin manifests: `themes` and `monitors` should now be declared under `"experimental": { ... }`. Top-level declarations still work but `claude plugin validate` will warn
1379- 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)
1380- 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
1381- Third-party deployments (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, or `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` gateway) no longer see spinner tips pointing at first-party Anthropic surfaces
1382- `skillOverrides` setting now works: `off` hides from model and `/`, `user-invocable-only` hides from model only, `name-only` collapses description
1383- The `claude_code.pull_request.count` OTel metric now counts PRs/MRs created via MCP tools, not just shell commands
1384- Policy refusal error messages now include the API Request ID for easier support debugging
1385- Fixed API errors with unrecognized 400 status codes showing raw JSON instead of the underlying error message
1386- Fixed `/clear` not resetting the terminal tab title after a conversation
1387- Fixed session title chip from `/rename` disappearing while a permission or other dialog is active
1388- Fixed agent panel below the prompt being hidden when subagents are running (regression in 2.1.122)
1389- Fixed external-editor handoff (Ctrl+G) blanking the conversation history above the prompt
1390- Fixed `/context` dumping its rendered ASCII visualization grid into the conversation, wasting ~1.6k tokens per call

1392- Fixed `/branch` success message not including the new branch's session id for `/resume`
1393- Fixed bold headers with keycap/ZWJ/skin-tone emoji losing trailing characters in fullscreen mode
1394- Fixed server-managed settings policy not applying for enterprise/team users whose stored OAuth credentials lacked the `user:inference` scope

1406- `/mcp` now shows the tool count for connected servers and flags servers that connected with 0 tools
1407- `--plugin-dir` now accepts `.zip` plugin archives in addition to directories
1408- `--channels` now works with console (API key) authentication — console orgs with managed settings must set `channelsEnabled: true` to enable
1409- Updated `/model` picker: collapsed duplicate Opus 4.7 entries, and current Opus now shows as "Opus" instead of "Opus 4.7"
1410- 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
1411- MCP: `workspace` is now a reserved server name — existing servers with that name will be skipped with a warning
1412- Reconnecting MCP servers no longer flood the conversation with full tool-name lists on every reconnect — re-announced tools are summarized by server prefix
1413- SDK hosts now receive a persistent `localSettings` suggestion for Bash permission prompts, so "Always allow" writes to `.claude/settings.local.json`
1414- `EnterWorktree` now creates the new branch from local HEAD as documented, instead of `origin/<default-branch>` — unpushed commits are no longer dropped
1415- Auto mode: when the classifier can't evaluate an action, the error now includes a hint (retry, `/compact`, or run with `--debug`)
1416- Fixed focus mode briefly dimming the previous response when submitting a new prompt
1417- Fixed stray "4;0;" desktop notification on every `/exit` in Kitty and other terminals that interpret OSC 9 as a notification

1421- Fixed long URLs not being individually clickable on every wrapped row in fullscreen mode
1422- Fixed `/plugin` Components panel showing "Marketplace 'inline' not found" for plugins loaded via `--plugin-dir`
1423- Fixed MCP tool results dropping images when the server returns both structured content and content blocks
1424- Fixed fenced code blocks inside list items carrying leading whitespace into the clipboard on copy-paste
1425- Fixed tab navigation in `/config` stranding focus — the tab header now stays focused so arrows and Esc keep working
1426- Fixed markdown link labels being lost on terminals without OSC 8 hyperlink support — links now render as `label (url)` instead of just the URL
1427- 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
1428- Fixed parallel shell tool calls: a failing read-only command (grep, git diff, ls) no longer cancels sibling calls
1429- Fixed banner showing "with X effort" on models that don't support effort
1430- Fixed `/fast` on 3P providers fuzzy-matching to an unrelated skill instead of showing "not available"
1431- Fixed Bedrock default model resolving to `global.*` instead of the region-appropriate prefix
1432- Fixed vim mode: `Space` in NORMAL mode now moves the cursor right, matching standard vi/vim behavior
1433- Fixed terminal progress indicator (OSC 9;4) flickering off between tool calls — stays visible across the full turn
1434- Fixed `/rename` without args failing on resumed sessions whose last entry is a compact boundary
1435- Fixed stale "remote-control is active" status lines from prior sessions appearing after `--resume`/`--continue`
1436- Fixed stale `installed_plugins.json` entries pointing at deleted cache directories polluting PATH
1437- Fixed MCP stdio servers receiving corrupted arguments when `CLAUDE_CODE_SHELL_PREFIX` is set and an argument contains spaces or shell metacharacters
1438- Fixed sub-agent progress summaries missing the prompt cache (~3× `cache_creation` reduction)
1439- Fixed `/plugin update` never detecting new versions of npm-sourced plugins
1440- Fixed sub-agent summaries firing repeatedly while a sub-agent's transcript is static, capping worst-case token cost on idle sub-agents
1441- Headless `--output-format stream-json`: `init.plugin_errors` now includes `--plugin-dir` load failures in addition to dependency demotions
1442
1443## 2.1.126
1444
1445- The `/model` picker now lists models from your gateway's `/v1/models` endpoint when `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` points at an Anthropic-compatible gateway
1446- - Added `claude project purge [path]` to delete all Claude Code state for a project (transcripts, tasks, file history, config entry) — supports `--dry-run`, `-y/--yes`, `-i/--interactive`, and `--all`
1447- `--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)
1448- `claude auth login` now accepts the OAuth code pasted into the terminal when the browser callback can't reach localhost (WSL2, SSH, containers)
1449- `claude_code.skill_activated` OpenTelemetry event now fires for user-typed slash commands and carries a new `invocation_trigger` attribute (`"user-slash"`, `"claude-proactive"`, or `"nested-skill"`)

1451- Host-managed deployments (`CLAUDE_CODE_PROVIDER_MANAGED_BY_HOST`) no longer auto-disable analytics on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry
1452- Windows: PowerShell 7 installed via the Microsoft Store, MSI without PATH, or `.NET global tool` is now detected
1453- Windows: when the PowerShell tool is enabled, Claude now treats PowerShell as the primary shell instead of defaulting to Bash
1454- Read tool: removed the per-file malware-assessment reminder that could cause spurious refusals and "this is not malware" commentary on legacy models
1455- **Security:** Fixed `allowManagedDomainsOnly` / `allowManagedReadPathsOnly` being ignored when a higher-priority managed-settings source lacked a `sandbox` block
1456- 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
1457- Fixed showing the login screen for "OAuth not allowed for organization" errors — now shows guidance to contact your admin
1458- Fixed OAuth login failing with timeout on slow or proxied connections, in IPv6-only devcontainers, and when the browser callback can't reach localhost
1459- Fixed a rare race where a concurrent credential write could clear a valid OAuth refresh token

1466- Fixed Japanese/Korean/Chinese text rendering as garbled characters on Windows in no-flicker mode
1467- Fixed `Ctrl+L` clearing the prompt input — it now only forces a screen redraw, matching readline behavior
1468- Fixed deferred tools (WebSearch, WebFetch, etc.) not being available to skills with `context: fork` and other subagents on their first turn
1469- Fixed plan-mode tools being unavailable in interactive sessions launched with `--channels`
1470- Fixed `/plugin` Uninstall reporting "Enabled" instead of "Uninstalled"
1471- Bounded total size of file-modified reminders when a linter touches many files at once
1472- Fixed `/remote-control` retries appearing stuck on "connecting…" — each retry now shows its result
1473- Fixed Remote Control failure notification not showing the error reason for initial connection failures
1474- 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
1475- PowerShell tool: bare `--` (e.g. `git diff -- file`) is no longer mis-flagged as the `--%` stop-parsing token
1476- Fixed Agent SDK hang when the model emits a malformed tool name in a parallel tool call batch
1477

1489- OpenTelemetry: added `claude_code.at_mention` log event for `@`-mention resolution
1490- 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
1491- Fixed `/model` not showing the Effort option for Bedrock application inference profile ARNs, and those ARNs not receiving `output_config.effort`
1492- Fixed Vertex AI / Bedrock returning `invalid_request_error: output_config: Extra inputs are not permitted` on session-title generation and other structured-output queries
1493- Fixed Vertex AI `count_tokens` endpoint returning 400 errors for users behind proxy gateways

1496- Fixed `!exit` / `!quit` in bash mode terminating the CLI instead of running as a shell command
1497- Fixed images sent to newer models being resized to 2576px per side instead of the correct 2000px maximum
1498- Fixed remote control session idle status redrawing twice per second, which could flood `tmux -CC` control pipes and pause the terminal
1499- Fixed assistant messages appearing blank in some sessions due to a stale view preference
1500- Fixed a malformed hooks entry in `settings.json` no longer invalidating the entire file
1501- Voice mode: keybindings bound to Caps Lock now show an error since terminals don't deliver Caps Lock as a key event
1502
1503## 2.1.121
1504
1505- Added `alwaysLoad` option to MCP server config — when `true`, all tools from that server skip tool-search deferral and are always available

1629- Hooks can now invoke MCP tools directly via `type: "mcp_tool"`
1630- Added `DISABLE_UPDATES` env var to completely block all update paths including manual `claude update` — stricter than `DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER`
1631- WSL on Windows can now inherit Windows-side managed settings via the `wslInheritsWindowsSettings` policy key
1632- Auto mode: include `"$defaults"` in `autoMode.allow`, `autoMode.soft_deny`, or `autoMode.environment` to add custom rules alongside the built-in list instead of replacing it
1633- Added a "Don't ask again" option to the auto mode opt-in prompt

1638- When auto-update skips a plugin due to another plugin's version constraint, the skip now appears in `/doctor` and the `/plugin` Errors tab
1639- Fixed `/mcp` menu hiding OAuth Authenticate/Re-authenticate actions for servers configured with `headersHelper`, and HTTP/SSE MCP servers with custom headers being stuck in "needs authentication" after a transient 401
1640- Fixed MCP servers whose OAuth token response omits `expires_in` requiring re-authentication every hour

1642- Fixed an unhandled promise rejection when an MCP server's OAuth flow times out or is cancelled
1643- Fixed MCP OAuth refresh proceeding without its cross-process lock under contention
1644- Fixed macOS keychain race where a concurrent MCP token refresh could overwrite a freshly-refreshed OAuth token, causing unexpected "Please run /login" prompts

1646- Fixed credential save crash on Linux/Windows corrupting `~/.claude/.credentials.json`
1647- Fixed `/login` having no effect in a session launched with `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` — the env token is now cleared so disk credentials take effect

1654- Fixed connecting to a remote session overwriting your local `model` setting in `~/.claude/settings.json`
1655- Fixed typeahead showing "No commands match" error when pasting file paths that start with `/`
1656- Fixed `plugin install` on an already-installed plugin not re-resolving a dependency installed at the wrong version
1657- Fixed unhandled errors from file watcher on invalid paths or fd exhaustion
1658- Fixed Remote Control sessions getting archived on transient CCR initialization blips during JWT refresh

1664- Agent frontmatter `mcpServers` are now loaded for main-thread agent sessions via `--agent`
1665- Improved `/model`: selections now persist across restarts even when the project pins a different model, and the startup header shows when the active model comes from a project or managed-settings pin
1666- The `/resume` command now offers to summarize stale, large sessions before re-reading them, matching the existing `--resume` behavior
1667- Faster startup when both local and claude.ai MCP servers are configured (concurrent connect now default)
1668- `plugin install` on an already-installed plugin now installs any missing dependencies instead of stopping at "already installed"
1669- Plugin dependency errors now say "not installed" with an install hint, and `claude plugin marketplace add` now auto-resolves missing dependencies from configured marketplaces
1670- Managed-settings `blockedMarketplaces` and `strictKnownMarketplaces` are now enforced on plugin install, update, refresh, and autoupdate
1671- Advisor Tool (experimental): dialog now carries an "experimental" label, learn-more link, and startup notification when enabled; sessions no longer get stuck with "Advisor tool result content could not be processed" errors on every prompt and `/compact`
1672- The `cleanupPeriodDays` retention sweep now also covers `~/.claude/tasks/`, `~/.claude/shell-snapshots/`, and `~/.claude/backups/`
1673- OpenTelemetry: `user_prompt` events now include `command_name` and `command_source` for slash commands; `cost.usage`, `token.usage`, `api_request`, and `api_error` now include an `effort` attribute when the model supports effort levels. Custom/MCP command names are redacted unless `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1` is set
1674- 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)
1675- Windows: cached `where.exe` executable lookups per process for faster subprocess launches
1676- Default effort for Pro/Max subscribers on Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 is now `high` (was `medium`)
1677- Fixed Plain-CLI OAuth sessions dying with "Please run /login" when the access token expires mid-session — the token is now refreshed reactively on 401
1678- Fixed `WebFetch` hanging on very large HTML pages by truncating input before HTML-to-markdown conversion
1679- Fixed a crash when a proxy returns HTTP 204 No Content — now surfaces a clear error instead of a `TypeError`
1680- Fixed `/login` having no effect when launched with `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` env var and that token expires
1681- Fixed prompt-input undo (`Ctrl+_`) doing nothing immediately after typing, and skipping a state on each undo step

1683- Fixed rare spurious escape/return triggers when key names arrive as coalesced text over slow connections
1684- Fixed SDK `reload_plugins` reconnecting all user MCP servers serially
1685- Fixed Bedrock application-inference-profile requests failing with 400 when backed by Opus 4.7 with thinking disabled

1687- Fixed subagents running a different model than the main agent incorrectly flagging file reads with a malware warning
1688- Fixed idle re-render loop when background tasks are present, reducing memory growth on Linux
1689- [VSCode] Fixed "Manage Plugins" panel breaking when multiple large marketplaces are configured
1690- 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
1691
1692## 2.1.116
1693
1694- `/resume` on large sessions is significantly faster (up to 67% on 40MB+ sessions) and handles sessions with many dead-fork entries more efficiently
1695- Faster MCP startup when multiple stdio servers are configured; `resources/templates/list` is now deferred to first `@`-mention
1696- Smoother fullscreen scrolling in VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf terminals — `/terminal-setup` now configures the editor's scroll sensitivity
1697- Thinking spinner now shows progress inline ("still thinking", "thinking more", "almost done thinking"), replacing the separate hint row
1698- `/config` search now matches option values (e.g. searching "vim" finds the Editor mode setting)
1699- `/doctor` can now be opened while Claude is responding, without waiting for the current turn to finish
1700- `/reload-plugins` and background plugin auto-update now auto-install missing plugin dependencies from marketplaces you've already added
1701- Bash tool now surfaces a hint when `gh` commands hit GitHub's API rate limit, so agents can back off instead of retrying
1702- The Usage tab in Settings now shows your 5-hour and weekly usage immediately and no longer fails when the usage endpoint is rate-limited
1703- Agent frontmatter `hooks:` now fire when running as a main-thread agent via `--agent`
1704- Slash command menu now shows "No commands match" when your filter has zero results, instead of disappearing
1705- Security: sandbox auto-allow no longer bypasses the dangerous-path safety check for `rm`/`rmdir` targeting `/`, `$HOME`, or other critical system directories
1706- Claude Code and installer now use `https://downloads.claude.ai/claude-code-releases` instead of `https://storage.googleapis.com/claude-code-dist-86c565f3-f756-42ad-8dfa-d59b1c096819/claude-code-releases`

1717- Fixed `/plugin` Installed tab showing the same item twice when it appears under Needs attention or Favorites
1718- Fixed `/update` and `/tui` not working after entering a worktree mid-session
1719
1720## 2.1.114

1723
1724## 2.1.113
1725
1726- Changed the CLI to spawn a native Claude Code binary (via a per-platform optional dependency) instead of bundled JavaScript
1727- Added `sandbox.network.deniedDomains` setting to block specific domains even when a broader `allowedDomains` wildcard would otherwise permit them
1728- Fullscreen mode: Shift+↑/↓ now scrolls the viewport when extending a selection past the visible edge
1729- `Ctrl+A` and `Ctrl+E` now move to the start/end of the current logical line in multiline input, matching readline behavior

1733- `/extra-usage` now works from Remote Control (mobile/web) clients
1734- Remote Control clients can now query `@`-file autocomplete suggestions
1735- Improved `/ultrareview`: faster launch with parallelized checks, diffstat in the launch dialog, and animated launching state
1736- Subagents that stall mid-stream now fail with a clear error after 10 minutes instead of hanging silently
1737- Bash tool: multi-line commands whose first line is a comment now show the full command in the transcript, closing a UI-spoofing vector
1738- Running `cd <current-directory> && git …` no longer triggers a permission prompt when the `cd` is a no-op
1739- Security: on macOS, `/private/{etc,var,tmp,home}` paths are now treated as dangerous removal targets under `Bash(rm:*)` allow rules
1740- Security: Bash deny rules now match commands wrapped in `env`/`sudo`/`watch`/`ionice`/`setsid` and similar exec wrappers
1741- Security: `Bash(find:*)` allow rules no longer auto-approve `find -exec`/`-delete`
1742- Fixed MCP concurrent-call timeout handling where a message for one tool call could silently disarm another call's watchdog
1743- Fixed Cmd-backspace / `Ctrl+U` to once again delete from the cursor to the start of the line
1744- Fixed markdown tables breaking when a cell contains an inline code span with a pipe character
1745- Fixed session recap auto-firing while composing unsent text in the prompt

1751- Fixed `/insights` crashing with `EBUSY` on Windows
1752- Fixed exit confirmation dialog mislabeling one-shot scheduled tasks as recurring — now shows a countdown
1753- Fixed slash/@ completion menu not sitting flush against the prompt border in fullscreen mode
1754- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_EXTRA_BODY` `output_config.effort` causing 400 errors on subagent calls to models that don't support effort and on Vertex AI
1755- Fixed prompt cursor disappearing when `NO_COLOR` is set
1756- Fixed `ToolSearch` ranking so pasted MCP tool names surface the actual tool instead of description-matching siblings
1757- Fixed compacting a resumed long-context session failing with "Extra usage is required for long context requests"
1758- Fixed `plugin install` succeeding when a dependency version conflicts with an already-installed plugin — now reports `range-conflict`
1759- Fixed "Refine with Ultraplan" not showing the remote session URL in the transcript
1760- Fixed SDK image content blocks that fail to process crashing the session — now degrade to a text placeholder

1772- Auto mode is now available for Max subscribers when using Opus 4.7
1773- 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`
1774- `/effort` now opens an interactive slider when called without arguments, with arrow-key navigation between levels and Enter to confirm
1775- Added "Auto (match terminal)" theme option that matches your terminal's dark/light mode — select it from `/theme`
1776- Added `/less-permission-prompts` skill — scans transcripts for common read-only Bash and MCP tool calls and proposes a prioritized allowlist for `.claude/settings.json`
1777- 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
1778- Auto mode no longer requires `--enable-auto-mode`
1779- 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)

1781- Suggest the closest matching subcommand when `claude <word>` is invoked with a near-miss typo (e.g. `claude udpate` → "Did you mean `claude update`?")
1782- Plan files are now named after your prompt (e.g. `fix-auth-race-snug-otter.md`) instead of purely random words
1783- 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
1784- `/skills` menu now supports sorting by estimated token count — press `t` to toggle
1785- `Ctrl+U` now clears the entire input buffer (previously: delete to start of line); press `Ctrl+Y` to restore
1786- `Ctrl+L` now forces a full screen redraw in addition to clearing the prompt input
1787- Transcript view footer now shows `[` (dump to scrollback) and `v` (open in editor) shortcuts
1788- The "+N lines" marker for truncated long pastes is now a full-width rule for easier scanning
1789- Headless `--output-format stream-json` now includes `plugin_errors` on the init event when plugins are demoted for unsatisfied dependencies

1791- Suppressed spurious decompression, network, and transient error messages that could appear in the TUI during normal operation
1792- Reverted the v2.1.110 cap on non-streaming fallback retries — it traded long waits for more outright failures during API overload
1793- Fixed terminal display tearing (random characters, drifting input) in iTerm2 + tmux setups when terminal notifications are sent
1794- 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
1795- Fixed LSP diagnostics from before an edit appearing after it, causing the model to re-read files it just edited
1796- Fixed tab-completing `/resume` immediately resuming an arbitrary titled session instead of showing the session picker
1797- Fixed `/context` grid rendering with extra blank lines between rows
1798- Fixed `/clear` dropping the session name set by `/rename`, causing statusline output to lose `session_name`
1799- 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
1800- Fixed Claude calling a non-existent `commit` skill and showing "Unknown skill: commit" for users without a custom `/commit` command
1801- Fixed 429 rate-limit errors on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry referencing status.claude.com (it only covers Anthropic-operated providers)

1804- Windows: `CLAUDE_ENV_FILE` and SessionStart hook environment files now apply (previously a no-op)
1805- 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
1806

1808
1809- Added `/tui` command and `tui` setting — run `/tui fullscreen` to switch to flicker-free rendering in the same conversation
1810- Added push notification tool — Claude can send mobile push notifications when Remote Control and "Push when Claude decides" config are enabled

1833- Hardened "Open in editor" actions against command injection from untrusted filenames
1834- Fixed `PermissionRequest` hooks returning `updatedInput` not being re-checked against `permissions.deny` rules; `setMode:'bypassPermissions'` updates now respect `disableBypassPermissionsMode`
1835- Fixed `PreToolUse` hook `additionalContext` being dropped when the tool call fails
1836- Fixed stdio MCP servers that print stray non-JSON lines to stdout being disconnected on the first stray line (regression in 2.1.105)

1852- `/undo` is now an alias for `/rewind`
1853- Improved `/model` to warn before switching models mid-conversation, since the next response re-reads the full history uncached
1854- Improved `/resume` picker to default to sessions from the current directory; press `Ctrl+A` to show all projects
1855- 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
1856- Reduced memory footprint for file reads, edits, and syntax highlighting by loading language grammars on demand
1857- Added "verbose" indicator when viewing the detailed transcript (`Ctrl+O`)
1858- Added a warning at startup when prompt caching is disabled via `DISABLE_PROMPT_CACHING*` environment variables

1864- Fixed session titles showing placeholder example text when the first message is a short greeting
1865- Fixed terminal escape codes appearing as garbage text in the prompt input after `--teleport`
1866- Fixed `/feedback` retry: pressing Enter to resubmit after a failure now works without first editing the description
1867- Fixed `--teleport` and `--resume <id>` precondition errors (e.g. dirty git tree, session not found) exiting silently instead of showing the error message
1868- Fixed Remote Control session titles set in the web UI being overwritten by auto-generated titles after the third message

1879
1880- Added `path` parameter to the `EnterWorktree` tool to switch into an existing worktree of the current repository
1881- Added PreCompact hook support: hooks can now block compaction by exiting with code 2 or returning `{"decision":"block"}`

1885- Improved network error messages: connection errors now show a retry message immediately instead of a silent spinner
1886- Improved file write display: long single-line writes (e.g. minified JSON) are now truncated in the UI instead of paginating across many screens
1887- Improved `/doctor` layout with status icons; press `f` to have Claude fix reported issues
1888- Improved `/config` labels and descriptions for clarity
1889- Improved skill description handling: raised the listing cap from 250 to 1,536 characters and added a startup warning when descriptions are truncated
1890- 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
1891- Improved stale agent worktree cleanup to remove worktrees whose PR was squash-merged instead of keeping them indefinitely
1892- Improved MCP large-output truncation prompt to give format-specific recipes (e.g. `jq` for JSON, computed Read chunk sizes for text)

2216- Documented `TaskCreated` hook event and its blocking behavior
2217- Preserved task notifications when backgrounding a running command with Ctrl+B
2218- PowerShell tool on Windows: external-command arguments containing both a double-quote and whitespace now prompt instead of auto-allowing (PS 5.1 argument-splitting hardening)

2341- Added transcript search — press `/` in transcript mode (`Ctrl+O`) to search, `n`/`N` to step through matches
2342- Added `Ctrl+X Ctrl+E` as an alias for opening the external editor (readline-native binding; `Ctrl+G` still works)
2343- Pasted images now insert an `[Image #N]` chip at the cursor so you can reference them positionally in your prompt

2383- Reduced scrollback resets in long sessions from once per turn to once per ~50 messages
2384- Faster `claude -p` startup with unauthenticated HTTP/SSE MCP servers (~600ms saved)
2385- Bash ghost-text suggestions now include just-submitted commands immediately
2386- Increased non-streaming fallback token cap (21k → 64k) and timeout (120s → 300s local) so fallback requests are less likely to be truncated

2395- Claude can now reference the on-disk path of clipboard-pasted images for file operations
2396- `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.

2412
2413## 2.1.81
2414
2415- 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

2512
2513## 2.1.77

2516- Added `allowRead` sandbox filesystem setting to re-allow read access within `denyRead` regions
2517- `/copy` now accepts an optional index: `/copy N` copies the Nth-latest assistant response

2551- Sessions are now auto-named from plan content when you accept a plan
2552- Improved headless mode plugin installation to compose correctly with `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_SEED_DIR`
2553- Show a notice when `apiKeyHelper` takes longer than 10s, preventing it from blocking the main loop
2554- The Agent tool no longer accepts a `resume` parameter — use `SendMessage({to: agentId})` to continue a previously spawned agent
2555- `SendMessage` now auto-resumes stopped agents in the background instead of returning an error
2556- Renamed `/fork` to `/branch` (`/fork` still works as an alias)

2593- Improved Remote Control session titles — now derived from your first prompt instead of showing "Interactive session"
2594- Improved `/voice` to show your dictation language on enable and warn when your `language` setting isn't supported for voice input

2677- Restored the `model` parameter on the Agent tool for per-invocation model overrides
2678- 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

2699- Fixed `/model` not displaying results when run while Claude is working
2700- Fixed digit keys selecting menu options instead of typing in plan mode permission prompt's text input

2710- Fixed terminal title being cleared on exit even when `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_TERMINAL_TITLE` was set
2711- 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
2712- Fixed oversized and truncated images from Bash data-URL output

2740- Fixed Chrome extension auto-detection getting permanently stuck on "not installed" after running on a machine without local Chrome
2741- Fixed `/plugin marketplace update` failing with merge conflicts when the marketplace is pinned to a branch/tag ref
2742- Fixed `/plugin marketplace add owner/repo@ref` incorrectly parsing `@` — previously only `#` worked as a ref separator, causing undiagnosable errors with `strictKnownMarketplaces`
2743- Fixed duplicate entries in `/permissions` Workspace tab when the same directory is added with and without a trailing slash
2744- Fixed `--print` hanging forever when team agents are configured — the exit loop no longer waits on long-lived `in_process_teammate` tasks
2745- Fixed "❯ Tool loaded." appearing in the REPL after every `ToolSearch` call
2746- Fixed prompting for `cd <cwd> && git ...` on Windows when the model uses a mingw-style path
2747- Improved startup time by deferring native image processor loading to first use
2748- Improved bridge session reconnection to complete within seconds after laptop wake from sleep, instead of waiting up to 10 minutes
2749- 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
2750- 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.
2751- Updated `/debug` to toggle debug logging on mid-session, since debug logs are no longer written by default
2752- Removed startup notification noise for unauthenticated org-registered claude.ai connectors
2753
2754## 2.1.70
2755
2756- 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
2757- 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
2758- 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
2759- Fixed prompt-cache bust when an MCP server with `instructions` connects after the first turn
2760- Fixed Enter inserting a newline instead of submitting when typing over a slow SSH connection
2761- Fixed clipboard corrupting non-ASCII text (CJK, emoji) on Windows/WSL by using PowerShell `Set-Clipboard`
2762- Fixed extra VS Code windows opening at startup on Windows when running from the VS Code integrated terminal
2763- Fixed voice mode failing on Windows native binary with "native audio module could not be loaded"
2764- Fixed push-to-talk not activating on session start when `voiceEnabled: true` was set in settings
2765- Fixed markdown links containing `#NNN` references incorrectly pointing to the current repository instead of the linked URL
2766- Fixed repeated "Model updated to Opus 4.6" notification when a project's `.claude/settings.json` has a legacy Opus model string pinned
2767- Fixed plugins showing as inaccurately installed in `/plugin`
2768- Fixed plugins showing "not found in marketplace" errors on fresh startup by auto-refreshing after marketplace installation
2769- Fixed `/security-review` command failing with `unknown option merge-base` on older git versions
2770- 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
2771- Fixed a performance regression in the `AskUserQuestion` preview dialog that re-ran markdown rendering on every keystroke in the notes input
2772- Fixed feature flags read during early startup never refreshing their disk cache, causing stale values to persist across sessions
2773- Fixed `permissions.defaultMode` settings values other than `acceptEdits` or `plan` being applied in Claude Code Remote environments — they are now ignored
2774- Fixed skill listing being re-injected on every `--resume` (~600 tokens saved per resume)
2775- Fixed teleport marker not rendering in VS Code teleported sessions
2776- Improved error message when microphone captures silence to distinguish from "no speech detected"
2777- Improved compaction to preserve images in the summarizer request, allowing prompt cache reuse for faster and cheaper compaction
2778- Improved `/rename` to work while Claude is processing, instead of being silently queued
2779- Reduced prompt input re-renders during turns by ~74%
2780- Reduced startup memory by ~426KB for users without custom CA certificates
2781- 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.
2782- [VSCode] Added spark icon in VS Code activity bar that lists all Claude Code sessions, with sessions opening as full editors
2783- [VSCode] Added full markdown document view for plans in VS Code, with support for adding comments to provide feedback
2784- [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
2785
2786## 2.1.69
2787
2788- Added the `/claude-api` skill for building applications with the Claude API and Anthropic SDK
2789- Added Ctrl+U on an empty bash prompt (`!`) to exit bash mode, matching `escape` and `backspace`
2790- Added numeric keypad support for selecting options in Claude's interview questions (previously only the number row above QWERTY worked)
2791- 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
2792- Added Voice STT support for 10 new languages (20 total) — Russian, Polish, Turkish, Dutch, Ukrainian, Greek, Czech, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian
2793- Added effort level display (e.g., "with low effort") to the logo and spinner, making it easier to see which effort setting is active
2794- Added agent name display in terminal title when using `claude --agent`
2795- 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`
2796- 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
2797- Added `/reload-plugins` command to activate pending plugin changes without restarting
2798- Added a one-time startup prompt suggesting Claude Code Desktop on macOS and Windows (max 3 showings, dismissible)
2799- Added `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}` variable for skills to reference their own directory in SKILL.md content
2800- Added `InstructionsLoaded` hook event that fires when CLAUDE.md or `.claude/rules/*.md` files are loaded into context
2801- Added `agent_id` (for subagents) and `agent_type` (for subagents and `--agent`) to hook events
2802- Added `worktree` field to status line hook commands with name, path, branch, and original repo directory when running in a `--worktree` session
2803- Added `pluginTrustMessage` in managed settings to append organization-specific context to the plugin trust warning shown before installation
2804- Added policy limit fetching (e.g., remote control restrictions) for Team plan OAuth users, not just Enterprise
2805- Added `pathPattern` to `strictKnownMarketplaces` for regex-matching file/directory marketplace sources alongside `hostPattern` restrictions
2806- Added plugin source type `git-subdir` to point to a subdirectory within a git repo
2807- Added `oauth.authServerMetadataUrl` config option for MCP servers to specify a custom OAuth metadata discovery URL when standard discovery fails
2808- Fixed a security issue where nested skill discovery could load skills from gitignored directories like `node_modules`
2809- Fixed trust dialog silently enabling all `.mcp.json` servers on first run. You'll now see the per-server approval dialog as expected
2810- Fixed `claude remote-control` crashing immediately on npm installs with "bad option: --sdk-url" (anthropics/claude-code#28334)
2811- Fixed `--model claude-opus-4-0` and `--model claude-opus-4-1` resolving to deprecated Opus versions instead of current
2812- 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.
2813- 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)
2814- Fixed ghost dotfiles (`.bashrc`, `HEAD`, etc.) appearing as untracked files in the working directory after sandboxed Bash commands on Linux
2815- Fixed Shift+Enter printing `[27;2;13~` instead of inserting a newline in Ghostty over SSH
2816- Fixed stash (Ctrl+S) being cleared when submitting a message while Claude is working
2817- Fixed ctrl+o (transcript toggle) freezing for many seconds in long sessions with lots of file edits
2818- Fixed plan mode feedback input not supporting multi-line text entry (backslash+Enter and Shift+Enter now insert newlines)
2819- Fixed cursor not moving down into blank lines at the top of the input box
2820- Fixed `/stats` crash when transcript files contain entries with missing or malformed timestamps
2821- 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)
2822- Fixed `--setting-sources user` not blocking dynamically discovered project skills
2823- Fixed duplicate CLAUDE.md, slash commands, agents, and rules when running from a worktree nested inside its main repo (e.g. `claude -w`)
2824- Fixed plugin Stop/SessionEnd/etc hooks not firing after any `/plugin` operation
2825- Fixed plugin hooks being silently dropped when two plugins use the same `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/...` command template
2826- Fixed memory leak in long-running SDK/CCR sessions where conversation messages were retained unnecessarily
2827- Fixed API 400 errors in forked agents (autocompact, summarization) when resuming sessions that were interrupted mid-tool-batch
2828- Fixed "unexpected tool_use_id found in tool_result blocks" error when resuming conversations that start with an orphaned tool result
2829- Fixed teammates accidentally spawning nested teammates via the Agent tool's `name` parameter
2830- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_OUTPUT_TOKENS` being ignored during conversation compaction
2831- Fixed `/compact` summary rendering as a user bubble in SDK consumers (Claude Code Remote web UI, VSCode extension)
2832- Fixed voice space bar getting stuck after a failed voice activation (module loading race, cold GrowthBook)
2833- Fixed worktree file copy on Windows
2834- Fixed global `.claude` folder detection on Windows
2835- Fixed symlink bypass where writing new files through a symlinked parent directory could escape the working directory in `acceptEdits` mode
2836- 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
2837- 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
2838- Fixed multi-GB memory spike when committing with large untracked binary files in the working tree
2839- 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.
2840- Fixed Android app crash when running local slash commands (`/voice`, `/cost`) in Remote Control sessions
2841- Fixed a memory leak where old message array versions accumulated in React Compiler `memoCache` over long sessions
2842- Fixed a memory leak where REPL render scopes accumulated over long sessions (~35MB over 1000 turns)
2843- 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
2844- Fixed a memory leak in interactive mode where hook events could accumulate unboundedly during long sessions
2845- Fixed hang when `--mcp-config` points to a corrupted file
2846- Fixed slow startup when many skills/plugins are installed
2847- Fixed `cd <outside-dir> && <cmd>` permission prompt to surface the chained command instead of only showing "Yes, allow reading from <dir>/"
2848- Fixed conditional `.claude/rules/*.md` files (with `paths:` frontmatter) and nested CLAUDE.md files not loading in print mode (`claude -p`)
2849- Fixed `/clear` not fully clearing all session caches, reducing memory retention in long sessions
2850- Fixed terminal flicker caused by animated elements at the scrollback boundary
2851- Fixed UI frame drops on macOS when using MCP servers with OAuth (regression from 2.1.x)
2852- Fixed occasional frame stalls during typing caused by synchronous debug log flushes
2853- Fixed `TeammateIdle` and `TaskCompleted` hooks to support `{"continue": false, "stopReason": "..."}` to stop the teammate, matching `Stop` hook behavior
2854- Fixed `WorktreeCreate` and `WorktreeRemove` plugin hooks being silently ignored
2855- Fixed skill descriptions with colons (e.g., "Triggers include: X, Y, Z") failing to load from SKILL.md frontmatter
2856- Fixed project skills without a `description:` frontmatter field not appearing in Claude's available skills list
2857- Fixed `/context` showing identical token counts for all MCP tools from a server
2858- Fixed literal `nul` file creation on Windows when the model uses CMD-style `2>nul` redirection in Git Bash
2859- Fixed extra blank lines appearing below each tool call in the expanded subagent transcript view (Ctrl+O)
2860- Fixed Tab/arrow keys not cycling Settings tabs when `/config` search box is focused but empty
2861- Fixed service key OAuth sessions (CCR containers) spamming `[ERROR]` logs with 403s from profile-scoped endpoints
2862- Fixed inconsistent color for "Remote Control active" status indicator
2863- Fixed Voice waveform cursor covering the first suffix letter when dictating mid-input
2864- Fixed Voice input showing all 5 spaces during warmup instead of capping at ~2 (aligning with the "keep holding…" hint)
2865- Improved spinner performance by isolating the 50ms animation loop from the surrounding shell, reducing render and CPU overhead during turns
2866- Improved UI rendering performance in native binaries with React Compiler
2867- Improved `--worktree` startup by eliminating a git subprocess on the startup path
2868- Improved macOS startup by eliminating redundant settings-file reloads when managed settings resolve
2869- Improved macOS startup for Claude.ai enterprise/team users by skipping an unnecessary keychain lookup
2870- Improved MCP `-p` startup by pipelining claude.ai config fetch with local connections and using a concurrency pool instead of sequential batching
2871- Improved voice startup by removing imperceptible warmup pulse animations that were causing re-render stutter
2872- 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.
2873- Improved memory usage in long sessions by stabilizing `onSubmit` across message updates
2874- Improved LSP tool rendering and memory context building to no longer read entire files
2875- Improved session upload and memory sync to avoid reading large files into memory before size/binary checks
2876- Improved file operation performance by avoiding reading file contents for existence checks (6 sites)
2877- Improved documentation to clarify that `--append-system-prompt-file` and `--system-prompt-file` work in interactive mode (the docs previously said print mode only)
2878- Reduced baseline memory by ~16MB by deferring Yoga WASM preloading
2879- Reduced memory footprint for SDK and CCR sessions using stream-json output
2880- Reduced memory usage when resuming large sessions (including compacted history)
2881- Reduced token usage on multi-agent tasks with more concise subagent final reports
2882- Changed Sonnet 4.5 users on Pro/Max/Team Premium to be automatically migrated to Sonnet 4.6
2883- Changed the `/resume` picker to show your most recent prompt instead of the first one. This also resolves some titles appearing as `(session)`.
2884- Changed claude.ai MCP connector failures to show a notification instead of silently disappearing from the tool list
2885- Changed example command suggestions to be generated deterministically instead of calling Haiku
2886- Changed resuming after compaction to no longer produce a preamble recap before continuing
2887- [SDK] Changed task creation to no longer require the `activeForm` field — the spinner falls back to the task subject
2888- [VSCode] Added compaction display as a collapsible "Compacted chat" card with the summary inside
2889- [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
2890- [VSCode] Fixed RTL text (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian) rendering reversed in the chat panel (regression in v2.1.63)
2891
2892## 2.1.68
2893
2894- 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`
2895- Re-introduced the "ultrathink" keyword to enable high effort for the next turn
2896- 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
2897
2898## 2.1.66
2899
2900- Reduced spurious error logging
2901
2902## 2.1.63
2903
2904- Added `/simplify` and `/batch` bundled slash commands
2905- Fixed local slash command output like /cost appearing as user-sent messages instead of system messages in the UI
2906- Project configs & auto memory now shared across git worktrees of the same repository
2907- Added `ENABLE_CLAUDEAI_MCP_SERVERS=false` env var to opt out from making claude.ai MCP servers available
2908- Improved `/model` command to show the currently active model in the slash command menu
2909- Added HTTP hooks, which can POST JSON to a URL and receive JSON instead of running a shell command
2910- Fixed listener leak in bridge polling loop
2911- Fixed listener leak in MCP OAuth flow cleanup
2912- 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.
2913- Fixed memory leak when navigating hooks configuration menu
2914- Fixed listener leak in interactive permission handler during auto-approvals
2915- Fixed file count cache ignoring glob ignore patterns
2916- Fixed memory leak in bash command prefix cache
2917- Fixed MCP tool/resource cache leak on server reconnect
2918- Fixed IDE host IP detection cache incorrectly sharing results across ports
2919- Fixed WebSocket listener leak on transport reconnect
2920- Fixed memory leak in git root detection cache that could cause unbounded growth in long-running sessions
2921- Fixed memory leak in JSON parsing cache that grew unbounded over long sessions
2922- VSCode: Fixed remote sessions not appearing in conversation history
2923- 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.
2924- Fixed memory leak where long-running teammates retained all messages in AppState even after conversation compaction
2925- Fixed a memory leak where MCP server fetch caches were not cleared on disconnect, causing growing memory usage with servers that reconnect frequently
2926- Improved memory usage in long sessions with subagents by stripping heavy progress message payloads during context compaction
2927- 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.
2928- VSCode: Added session rename and remove actions to the sessions list
2929- Fixed `/clear` not resetting cached skills, which could cause stale skill content to persist in the new conversation
2930
2931## 2.1.62
2932
2933- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates
2934
2935## 2.1.61
2936
2937- Fixed concurrent writes corrupting config file on Windows
2938
2939## 2.1.59
2940
2941- Claude automatically saves useful context to auto-memory. Manage with /memory
2942- Added `/copy` command to show an interactive picker when code blocks are present, allowing selection of individual code blocks or the full response.
2943- 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
2944- Improved ordering of short task lists
2945- Improved memory usage in multi-agent sessions by releasing completed subagent task state
2946- Fixed MCP OAuth token refresh race condition when running multiple Claude Code instances simultaneously
2947- Fixed shell commands not showing a clear error message when the working directory has been deleted
2948- Fixed config file corruption that could wipe authentication when multiple Claude Code instances ran simultaneously
2949
2950## 2.1.58
2951
2952- Expand Remote Control to more users
2953
2954## 2.1.56
2955
2956- VS Code: Fixed another cause of "command 'claude-vscode.editor.openLast' not found" crashes
2957
2958## 2.1.55
2959
2960- Fixed BashTool failing on Windows with EINVAL error
2961
2962## 2.1.53
2963
2964- Fixed a UI flicker where user input would briefly disappear after submission before the message rendered
2965- Fixed bulk agent kill (ctrl+f) to send a single aggregate notification instead of one per agent, and to properly clear the command queue
2966- Fixed graceful shutdown sometimes leaving stale sessions when using Remote Control by parallelizing teardown network calls
2967- Fixed `--worktree` sometimes being ignored on first launch
2968- Fixed a panic ("switch on corrupted value") on Windows
2969- Fixed a crash that could occur when spawning many processes on Windows
2970- Fixed a crash in the WebAssembly interpreter on Linux x64 & Windows x64
2971- Fixed a crash that sometimes occurred after 2 minutes on Windows ARM64
2972
2973## 2.1.52
2974
2975- VS Code: Fixed extension crash on Windows ("command 'claude-vscode.editor.openLast' not found")
2976
2977## 2.1.51
2978
2979- Added `claude remote-control` subcommand for external builds, enabling local environment serving for all users.
2980- Updated plugin marketplace default git timeout from 30s to 120s and added `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS` to configure.
2981- Added support for custom npm registries and specific version pinning when installing plugins from npm sources
2982- 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`.
2983- Fixed a security issue where `statusLine` and `fileSuggestion` hook commands could execute without workspace trust acceptance in interactive mode.
2984- Tool results larger than 50K characters are now persisted to disk (previously 100K). This reduces context window usage and improves conversation longevity.
2985- 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.
2986- 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.
2987- Fixed slash command autocomplete crashing when a plugin's SKILL.md description is a YAML array or other non-string type
2988- 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.
2989- Managed settings can now be set via macOS plist or Windows Registry. Learn more at https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings#settings-files
2990
2991## 2.1.50
2992
2993- Added support for `startupTimeout` configuration for LSP servers
2994- Added `WorktreeCreate` and `WorktreeRemove` hook events, enabling custom VCS setup and teardown when agent worktree isolation creates or removes worktrees.
2995- 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.
2996- Linux: Fixed native modules not loading on systems with glibc older than 2.30 (e.g., RHEL 8)
2997- Fixed memory leak in agent teams where completed teammate tasks were never garbage collected from session state
2998- Fixed `CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE` to fully strip down skills, session memory, custom agents, and CLAUDE.md token counting
2999- Fixed `/mcp reconnect` freezing the CLI when given a server name that doesn't exist
3000- Fixed memory leak where completed task state objects were never removed from AppState
3001- Added support for `isolation: worktree` in agent definitions, allowing agents to declaratively run in isolated git worktrees.
3002- `CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE` mode now also disables MCP tools, attachments, hooks, and CLAUDE.md file loading for a fully minimal experience.
3003- Fixed bug where MCP tools were not discovered when tool search is enabled and a prompt is passed in as a launch argument
3004- Improved memory usage during long sessions by clearing internal caches after compaction
3005- Added `claude agents` CLI command to list all configured agents
3006- Improved memory usage during long sessions by clearing large tool results after they have been processed
3007- Fixed a memory leak where LSP diagnostic data was never cleaned up after delivery, causing unbounded memory growth in long sessions
3008- Fixed a memory leak where completed task output was not freed from memory, reducing memory usage in long sessions with many tasks
3009- Improved startup performance for headless mode (`-p` flag) by deferring Yoga WASM and UI component imports
3010- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates
3011- Fixed unbounded memory growth in long sessions by capping file history snapshots
3012- Added `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_1M_CONTEXT` environment variable to disable 1M context window support
3013- Opus 4.6 (fast mode) now includes the full 1M context window
3014- VSCode: Added `/extra-usage` command support in VS Code sessions
3015- Fixed memory leak where TaskOutput retained recent lines after cleanup
3016- Fixed memory leak in CircularBuffer where cleared items were retained in the backing array
3017- Fixed memory leak in shell command execution where ChildProcess and AbortController references were retained after cleanup
3018
3019## 2.1.49
3020
3021- Improved MCP OAuth authentication with step-up auth support and discovery caching, reducing redundant network requests during server connections
3022- Added `--worktree` (`-w`) flag to start Claude in an isolated git worktree
3023- Subagents support `isolation: "worktree"` for working in a temporary git worktree
3024- Added Ctrl+F keybinding to kill background agents (two-press confirmation)
3025- Agent definitions support `background: true` to always run as a background task
3026- Plugins can ship `settings.json` for default configuration
3027- Fixed file-not-found errors to suggest corrected paths when the model drops the repo folder
3028- 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.
3029- Fixed prompt suggestion cache regression that reduced cache hit rates.
3030- Fixed `plugin enable` and `plugin disable` to auto-detect the correct scope when `--scope` is not specified, instead of always defaulting to user scope
3031- Simple mode (`CLAUDE_CODE_SIMPLE`) now includes the file edit tool in addition to the Bash tool, allowing direct file editing in simple mode.
3032- Permission suggestions are now populated when safety checks trigger an ask response, enabling SDK consumers to display permission options
3033- 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.
3034- Fixed verbose mode not updating thinking block display when toggled via `/config` — memo comparators now correctly detect verbose changes
3035- Fixed unbounded WASM memory growth during long sessions by periodically resetting the tree-sitter parser

3046- 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.
3047- 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
3048
3049## 2.1.47
3050
3051- Fixed FileWriteTool line counting to preserve intentional trailing blank lines instead of stripping them with `trimEnd()`.
3052- 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.
3053- 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.
3054- 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.
3055- 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)
3056- Improved memory usage in long-running sessions by releasing API stream buffers, agent context, and skill state after use
3057- Improved startup performance by deferring SessionStart hook execution, reducing time-to-interactive by ~500ms.

3077- Fixed session name persisting in status bar after `/clear` command (anthropics/claude-code#26082)
3078- 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)
3079- Fixed /resume silently dropping sessions when the first message exceeds 16KB or uses array-format content (anthropics/claude-code#25721)
3080- Added `chat:newline` keybinding action for configurable multi-line input (anthropics/claude-code#26075)

3088- Fixed CJK wide characters causing misaligned timestamps and layout elements in the TUI (anthropics/claude-code#26084)
3089- Fixed custom agent `model` field in `.claude/agents/*.md` being ignored when spawning team teammates (anthropics/claude-code#26064)
3090- Fixed plan mode being lost after context compaction, causing the model to switch from planning to implementation mode (anthropics/claude-code#26061)
3091- Fixed `alwaysThinkingEnabled: true` in settings.json not enabling thinking mode on Bedrock and Vertex providers (anthropics/claude-code#26074)
3092- Fixed `tool_decision` OTel telemetry event not being emitted in headless/SDK mode (anthropics/claude-code#26059)
3093- Fixed session name being lost after context compaction — renamed sessions now preserve their custom title through compaction (anthropics/claude-code#26121)
3094- Increased initial session count in resume picker from 10 to 50 for faster session discovery (anthropics/claude-code#26123)

3098- Fixed React crash (error #31) when a skill's `argument-hint` in SKILL.md frontmatter uses YAML sequence syntax (e.g., `[topic: foo | bar]`) — the value is now properly coerced to a string (anthropics/claude-code#25826)
3099- Fixed crash when using `/fork` on sessions that used web search — null entries in search results from transcript deserialization are now handled gracefully (anthropics/claude-code#25811)
3100- Fixed read-only git commands triggering FSEvents file watcher loops on macOS by adding --no-optional-locks flag (anthropics/claude-code#25750)
