Remote Control now checks your Claude Code version meets a minimum before accepting a remotely started session

What

When a session is started remotely (via Remote Control), Claude Code now checks that the local installation meets a required minimum version, and distinguishes three ways that check can fail:

  • the required version couldn't be retrieved from the server at all
  • the value received from the server was malformed
  • the local installation is genuinely below the required version

Each case now shows its own distinct message explaining what went wrong.

Why

This makes it clearer why a remotely started session was rejected, instead of showing one generic failure for what could be three different underlying problems.
