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.

Claude Code v2.1.116

  • The HTTP client has been migrated from an axios-based library to native fetch API throughout the transport layer. This is an internal change but may affect proxy configurations that relied on axios-specific behavior.
  • The download URL for Claude Code releases changed from a Google Cloud Storage URL to https://downloads.claude.ai/claude-code-releases.
  • Connection adapters (Direct Connect, SSH) were refactored from a class-based to a factory pattern. The internal hook names changed from useDirectConnect/useSSHSession to factory labels directConnect/ssh.
  • The length limits system prompt instruction ("keep text between tool calls to ≤25 words") was removed, giving the model more flexibility in response length.
  • Organizations using AWS credential configuration through the settings UI should migrate to either API key authentication or the new OIDC Federation system.
