DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

+<Update label="Week 34" description="August 17–21, 2026" tags={["v2.1.234–v2.1.239"]}>
+  **`/design`**: a research preview that brings Claude Design's artboard workflow into the CLI and Claude Code Desktop, built on artifacts, so Claude drafts editable artboards for your UI and implements the one you pick.
+
+  Also this week: the built-in **Concise output style** makes Claude lead with the result and skip preamble; any machine running `claude remote-control` shows up as a **device card** on your phone so you can start a session on it from the Code tab; and **`ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_MODEL`** sets the model new sessions start on.

+<Update label="Week 33" description="August 10–14, 2026" tags={["v2.1.225–v2.1.233"]}>
+  **Auto-continue after a usage limit on Desktop**: when you hit your session limit in Claude Code Desktop, check **Auto-continue when limits reset** on the limit card and the app retries the interrupted turn once the limit resets.
+
+  Also this week: **fork mode** is on by default in interactive sessions, so Claude can hand a side task to a subagent that inherits the full conversation; **GitLab** merge request URLs work with `--worktree` and the `claude agents` view, and marketplaces clone bare `gitlab.com` URLs; and typing **`@`** in the prompt mentions another Claude session by name.

 <Update label="Week 32" description="August 3–7, 2026" tags={["v2.1.220–v2.1.224"]}>
   **Cross-session messaging**: on macOS and Linux, your Claude Code sessions can now message each other, so Claude passes a finding or a decision from one session to another instead of you re-explaining it.
