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 v2.1.238

Differently-spelled paths are no longer mistaken for existing directories

Working Directories

Adding a working directory now recognises the same folder written a different way on Windows or macOS.

What

Adding a working directory now compares paths accounting for Windows UNC spellings and private aliases such as macOS /private, so a directory written a different way is no longer wrongly treated as already inside a root you added.

Evidence

uncShapeParity: !0

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