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 v2.1.242

Zoom takes a scale, and batched actions can now return images

Zoom takes a scale for the returned image, and batched actions can now return screenshots inline.

scale
What

Zoom accepts an optional scale for the returned image, bounded by fixed limits, with the instruction that region and click coordinates always stay in the full-resolution frame. Batches may now include screenshot and zoom actions, whose images come back interleaved with the other results.

Details
  • Coordinates written inside a batch refer to the full-screen screenshot taken before the call; afterwards, the most recent full screenshot the batch produced becomes the reference for the next call.
  • The scale property is only present when the adaptive-resolution capability is on, and both places in this build that supply that capability set it to false.
  • The repeated allowlist sentence in tool descriptions was factored into one shared string rather than repeated per tool.
Evidence

Screenshot and zoom actions are allowed and their images are returned interleaved with the per-action outputs.

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