What

Claude Code carries a signed catalog, a built-in list of the models it knows about. That catalog moves from version 837 to version 994, issued at 2026-09-22T19:22:16Z. The build reports itself as version 2.1.281, built at 2026-09-23T02:22:43Z. The other changes in the build are renamed internal names with no change in behaviour.

Why

The list of models Claude Code knows about out of the box now matches the newer catalog.
