Claude Code v0.2.73

# Claude Code v0.2.73 Changelog

The /config command now has a /theme alias, providing quick access to theme settings directly:

# Both commands now open the config panel
/config
/theme

Theme options in the config panel now display clearer, more user-friendly descriptions:

• Light mode - Previously "Dark text"
• Dark mode - Previously "Light text"
• Light mode (colorblind-friendly) - Previously "Dark text (colorblind-friendly)"
• Dark mode (colorblind-friendly) - Previously "Light text (colorblind-friendly)"
• Light mode (ANSI colors only) - Previously "Dark text (ANSI colors only)"
• Dark mode (ANSI colors only) - Previously "Light text (ANSI colors only)"

Claude Code now detects if you have the Anthropic MCP extension installed in supported IDEs (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf). When detected, a status indicator appears showing:

✓ Found [IDE name] extension • /config

The TodoRead tool now has clearer usage instructions, explicitly stating that no parameters should be provided:

Usage:
- This tool takes in no parameters. So leave the input blank or empty. 
  DO NOT include a dummy object, placeholder string or a key like "input" or "empty". 
  LEAVE IT BLANK.

Improved handling of piped commands in bash shells. The system now properly redirects stdin only for the first command in a pipeline, preventing issues with commands like:

# This now works correctly
echo "test" | grep "test" | wc -l

Added support for specifying custom shells when executing bash commands, providing more flexibility for users with non-standard shell configurations.

• Refactored extension detection to use synchronous execution with proper error handling
• Improved bash command parsing for better pipe detection
• Updated import statements for better module organization
• Enhanced shell command execution with custom shell parameter support

• Fixed potential issues with stdin redirection in piped commands
• Improved error handling for IDE extension detection
• Better handling of edge cases in shell command execution
