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.

Windows policy helpers can be PowerShell scripts

Windows Notable

On Windows your permission policy helper can now be a .ps1 PowerShell script, with wildcard characters rejected.

What

The external helper that answers permission policy questions can now be a .ps1 file on Windows, not just an .exe. A .ps1 path containing [, ], a backtick, * or ? is rejected, because PowerShell would treat those as wildcard syntax and resolve the path to something else.

Evidence

path must end in .exe or .ps1 on Windows

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