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.

Claude Code v2.1.232

Policy helper executable paths must be in normalized form

You'll notice
Useful2 Signal2
Managed Settings not in their notes

Policy helper paths must be fully normalized, and Windows needs a drive or UNC path.

policyHelpers
What

The managed-settings policy helper path check now rejects . and .. segments, doubled or trailing separators, and on Windows requires a drive-qualified or UNC path with no device-namespace prefix. This is on top of the existing absolute-path and .exe checks, and failures return code: "bad_path".

Details
  • The check also moved inside the runner, so it applies at the point the helper is invoked.
Evidence

path must be in normalized form (no "." or ".." segments, no doubled or trailing separators)

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