What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
Claude Code now rings the terminal's accessibility bell the first time a turn's completion time is recorded, and the "Network request outside of sandbox" permission dialog now announces "Claude needs your permission" to screen readers like the other permission prompts already did.
Details
The bell helper is new in this build; it fires once per completion rather than on every update.
Submitting a turn also records user activity and runs a first-submit hook.
Evidence
Network request outside of sandbox
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
