What

Several internal changes have no effect a user can clearly see:

  • A hook-chain handler can be marked answersForEngine.
  • Git diff helpers take an extra option.
  • CLAUDE.md loading passes along a new argument.
  • The status column placement check falls back when the column count is unknown.
  • A background worker has a writesStatusBeforeInit option.
  • A scrollbar wrapper tracks when the mouse is over it.
  • The lookup of the last parent message skips some messages.

The rest are renames and a version string bump to 2.1.281.

Why

There is nothing to change in how you use Claude Code.
