10
11**Added**
12
13* Added `/claude-api api-version` to move Claude API code to API version `2026-10-21`
14* Added the `claude_code.safety_event` OpenTelemetry event for each tool call a permission rule, auto mode, a safety check, a hook or the sandbox stopped, prompted or sent back
15* \[VSCode] Added a notice on the microphone button when voice dictation stops by itself (15 seconds without recognized speech, or the 2-minute limit), saying why and that the text so far is kept
16* \[Code Review] Added `@claude review stop` (also `off` and `pause`) to Code Review, ending an `@claude review always` subscription on a pull request without starting a new review
17
18**Changed**
19
20* Changed the notice Claude gets when the WebSearch budget is used up to also tell it not to query search engines in a browser or through computer use
21* Changed the `axScreenReader` setting and `CLAUDE_AX_SCREEN_READER` in a settings `env` block to apply only from user, managed or `--settings` settings (since 2.1.305)
22* Self-hosted runner: Changed checkout hooks to be stopped after 30 minutes by default, failing the session's setup; if yours needs longer, raise `--checkout-hook-timeout-min` or set it to `0`
23* Self-hosted runner: Changed the certificate file built for Anthropic-managed git to filter its trusted certificates as the CLI does; a `[runner:warn]` line gives the number left out
24* \[VSCode] Changed the "still open somewhere else" notice to also cover a Claude process left over from an extension restart, which usually ends on its own within about 10 minutes
25* \[VSCode] Changed voice dictation to filter its trusted certificates as the CLI does
26* \[VSCode] Changed the extension's own requests to filter their trusted certificates as the CLI does, and to trust the `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` file named in the environment or in user settings

28**6 improvements**
29
30* Improved recovery from unparseable tool calls: Claude Code now retries the call up to twice before ending the turn with an error
31* Improved fork subagents launched together: each is now told which launch is its own, so forks are much less likely to try to start each other's work
32* Improved browser sign-in: the success page now appears as soon as sign-in completes, without waiting for your account profile to load
33* Improved web search errors in cloud and self-hosted runner sessions: a search refused with a 403 that gives a reason now shows that reason instead of a generic "Authentication error"
34* Improved the time to the first reply in cloud sessions when one of the desktop app's MCP servers can't connect
35* Improved Remote Control connect time for sessions whose transcript contains large pasted images or PDF reads
36
37**26 bug fixes**
38
39* Fixed requests failing with a model-not-found error when `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_1M_CONTEXT` is set and the model is an alias with the `[1m]` suffix, such as `opus[1m]`
40* Fixed the `prompt-caching-scope` beta header being sent behind custom `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` gateways and on Foundry, where it has no effect
41* Fixed MCP servers showing "needs authentication" in `claude -p` on macOS while the login keychain was locked; they now say why, and the next run after an unlock connects without a new sign-in
42* Fixed MCP servers being reported as timed out, and staying failed in headless runs, when a macOS or Linux computer went to sleep while they were connecting
43* Fixed HTTP MCP tool calls being sent twice when the connection closed mid-call; only read-only or idempotent tools are now retried
44* Fixed a turn sometimes starting without an SDK MCP server's latest tools when a background task was running
45* Fixed some "Autocompact is thrashing" errors in turns that read many PDF pages, images or other large tool results
46* Fixed `/autocompact` in cloud sessions going back to the default window after the session restarted
47* Fixed a conversation cleared with `/clear` sometimes coming back when a cloud or self-hosted runner session restarted
48* Fixed `CLAUDE_STREAM_FIRST_BYTE_TIMEOUT_MS` being ignored in Claude apps gateway sessions
49* Fixed telemetry from Claude Desktop sessions behind a Claude apps gateway being rejected when `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS` is set
50* Fixed `/permissions` > Recently denied not showing the denied shell command, and auto mode's local classifier ignoring an approval from there when it checks a retried command; approving a row now names the command, not its description
51* Fixed `/help` and the `/` command menu showing long model-facing descriptions for bundled skills such as `/claude-api` instead of their short descriptions
52* Fixed subagent transcripts recording placeholder token usage and an empty stop reason for streamed responses
53* Fixed model switches through the Agent SDK's `setModel()`, and apps built on it, being refused when the API took more than 5 seconds to confirm the model; Claude Code now waits up to 15 seconds
54* Fixed a background command stopped through a connected app (such as the desktop app archiving an idle session) being reported to Claude as stopped by the user; the notice now names its output file
55* Fixed WebFetch in Cowork cloud sessions reporting a tool error when a site answered with a 4xx status or a robots.txt refusal; it is now a normal result, as in local sessions
56* Fixed write tools on a directly configured GitHub MCP server showing a form that closed without creating anything in the desktop app's Code tab
57* Fixed Artifact tool reads failing with a connection reset when the server had closed a reused connection
58* Self-hosted runner: Fixed sessions with `--use-anthropic-git-proxy` committing a `.claude/settings.local.json` left in the clone by an earlier session
59* Self-hosted runner: Fixed archiving or requeueing a session, or stopping the runner, during its checkout hook leaving the hook's processes running and the runner's slot held
60* \[VSCode] Fixed a long prompt expanded with Show more covering the whole chat panel: a pinned prompt is now capped at 40% of the panel and scrolls
61* \[VSCode] Fixed part of a list item or table cell with LaTeX math pasting as a new list or table in rich text editors
62* \[VSCode] Fixed dictation failing behind a TLS-inspecting proxy when `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` is set only in `~/.claude/settings.json`; it now also follows `CLAUDE_CODE_CERT_STORE`
63* \[Cloud sessions] Fixed the repository picker saying "No repositories match" while a search was still running; it now shows "Searching…" until the results arrive
64* \[Cloud sessions] Fixed the "Waiting for a runner" status on self-hosted environments being cut off; with on-demand runners it now counts up from your last message and shows failed attempts

966**2.1.306**
1067
1168* Fixed `claude -p` inside cloud sessions reporting "Not logged in" when started without the session's environment variables
from line 2017
19602017* Fixed worktree checkouts failing certificate verification (for example on Git LFS downloads) when the CA certificate is passed to git as `GIT_CONFIG_COUNT` environment pairs
19612018* Fixed sandboxed `git` asking credential helpers to store the sandbox proxy's login, which printed "failed to store"
19622019* Fixed managed `sandbox` settings being ignored entirely when one nested value was invalid; the invalid value now fails closed and the rest of the block still applies
1963* Fixed Claude's edits to its own auto-memory notes being blocked as sensitive-file writes when Claude Code was started in a subdirectory of a git repository
1964* Fixed Remote Control being unavailable on paid plans when telemetry is turned off with `DISABLE_TELEMETRY` or `DO_NOT_TRACK`
1965* Fixed the `/remote-control` menu cutting its QR-code hint mid-word in narrow terminals
1966* Fixed vim mode `.` dropping a Shift+Enter newline, leaving the cursor inside an accented letter, and repeating an older change after `3J` or Visual-mode `J` on the last line
1967* Fixed vim mode cursor placement: recalling a prompt over 10,000 characters in normal mode no longer leaves the cursor past the end, and `V` then `p` now lands on the first non-blank
1968* Fixed vim mode `J` joining lines with different spacing than Vim (such as a space before `)` or after a tab), and `3J` or Visual-mode `J` on the last line not moving the cursor as Vim does
1969* Windows: Fixed the PowerShell tool letting `cmd /c rd`, `rmdir`, `del` or `erase` delete drive roots, the home folder and other folders that `Remove-Item` refuses
1970* \[VSCode] Fixed the permission mode indicator showing Default while the session kept running in auto or bypass mode after an automatic switch out of it failed; the switch is now retried until it lands
1971* \[VSCode] Fixed a session teleported from the web dropping the messages sent while Claude was working
1972* \[VSCode] Fixed a Web session staying hidden from the session list, and an empty chat opening in its place, when an older version had saved an empty local copy of it
1973* \[VSCode] Fixed a reopened session splitting a turn at a message Claude received mid-turn, such as an automatic continuation
1974* \[VSCode] Fixed a reloaded session showing a rewound-away turn, or only the rows before a compaction
1975* \[VSCode] Fixed the footer's agents pill drawing its icon off-center, with the status dot against the edge, in narrow panels
1976* \[VSCode] Fixed the chat input showing its text slightly below the cursor and selection after pasting lines that end with a line break into a long prompt
1977* \[Cloud sessions] Fixed cloud sessions occasionally redoing an already-finished step, such as posting a duplicate comment or push, after recovering from a server-side restart
1978* \[Claude Tag] Fixed a channel's configure page listing no connectors or plugins when the channel gets its access bundle through an attach rule; rule-attached bundles are now shown
1979* \[Claude Tag] Fixed access-bundle repository search missing repositories on GitHub App installs that are limited to a large list of selected repositories
1980* \[Claude Tag] Fixed Claude occasionally posting the same reply twice when a new message interrupted it mid-reply
1981* \[Claude Tag] Fixed channel routines that stopped running in older private channels whose Slack channel ID changed, for example after a Slack Connect share
1982* \[Claude Tag] Fixed conversations in a channel set to "Channel only" all ending when a non-guest member joined and Slack was slow to confirm their membership
1983* \[Code Review] Fixed "@claude review" requests going silent when GitHub failed to return the pull request: the request is retried once, and a comment explains if it still fails
1984* \[Code Review] Fixed billing for a review that stopped at its time limit with nothing verified: it now shows as incomplete, isn't charged, and is retried once
1985
1986**2.1.282**
1987
1988**Added**
1989
1990* Added a `maxProseWidth` setting that caps the width of Claude's prose in wide terminals while tables and code blocks keep the full width
1991* Added a startup notice, and `/status` and `claude doctor` entries, listing telemetry variables in a project's settings files that were ignored or that turned telemetry off
1992* Added the `allowClaudeInChromeWithManagedMcp` managed setting to let `claude --chrome` run alongside an exclusive `managed-mcp.json`; the error shown when Chrome is blocked now names it
1993* Added `store.readiness_grace_seconds` to the Claude apps gateway so `/readyz` can stay ready through a short Postgres outage such as a database failover
1994* Added a scrollbar to the `/feedback` drafts list in fullscreen mode; it appears while the mouse is over the list
1995* \[Cloud sessions] Added Claude GitHub App status to Settings › Connectors › GitHub: whether the app is installed and reachable for your account, plus steps to connect, install or reconnect
1996* \[Cloud sessions] Added "Open repository" and "Open compare page" links to the repository menu of a cloud session whose repository is hosted on a Git server other than GitHub
1997* \[Cloud sessions] Added attaching a repository from a different GitHub owner, such as a fork's upstream, to a running cloud session that already has one, including sessions started from Slack
1998
1999**Changed**
2000
2001* Updated the `claude-api` skill: pre-output refusal billing now links to the How refusals are billed docs, mid-stream refusals bill at normal rates, and pre-output refusals count against rate limits
2002* Updated the `claude-api` skill to recommend `ant apply` for keeping Managed Agents resources as version-controlled files
2003* Changed auto mode to use the server-side classifier by default on a direct Anthropic API connection when telemetry is off (`CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_MODE_SERVER=0` opts out)
2004* Changed `sandbox.excludedCommands` to ignore project and local settings entries when managed settings or `--settings` set `allowUnsandboxedCommands: false`, or managed `allowManagedDomainsOnly: true`
2005* Changed project and local settings to ignore OpenTelemetry variables that turn on export, set its endpoint, or capture content, like `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TELEMETRY` and `OTEL_LOG_*`
2006* Changed Windows/WSL managed settings so an admin policy that is present but invalid or unreadable (HKLM, `managed-settings.json`) keeps user-writable HKCU and WSL `/etc/claude-code` from applying
2007* Changed `Skill(anthropic-skills:*)` and `Skill(claude-ai:*)` allow rules to cover only skills synced from claude.ai, not plugins or other skills that merely use such a name
2008* Changed skill folders, command files and workflow commands in the `anthropic-skills` or `claude-ai` namespace to no longer load; a plugin so named still loads but yields name ties to synced skills
2009* Changed MCP servers configured under the name `anthropic-skills` or `claude-ai` to list no skills or prompts (their tools still work); rename the server in your MCP configuration to list them again
2010* Changed the `ultracode` visuals in `/effort` and the prompt input to plain styling (no ripple, border flourish or keyword glimmer) and removed the dynamic-workflows spinner tip
2011* Changed the Clawd mascot's feet in the start-up banner to sit under the corners of his body
2012* \[Claude Tag] Changed the bordered cards Claude uses in Slack replies for pla
2020* Fixed Claude's edits to its own auto-memory notes being blocked as sensitive-file writes when Claude Cod
