Claude Code v2.1.23 ·

Improved Windows Process Ancestor Detection

Entry
JSON All of v2.1.23
EntryKind: in v2.1.23,
ChangesSection of the release
What

PowerShell-based process ancestor detection now retrieves the full ancestor chain in a single call.

Details
  • Uses a more efficient PowerShell script that walks the process tree in one execution
  • Retrieves both process IDs and command lines for ancestors
  • Timeout increased from 1 second to 3 seconds for reliability
Evidence

PowerShell script at line 198756 (contains "$currentPid =", batched ancestor retrieval logic)

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
