Claude Code asks your permission before some fetches.\n\nThis release changes how those permission questions behave:\n\n- In remote sessions (Claude Code running away from your computer and reached through a web link), a WebFetch permission question that nobody answers can now be withdrawn.\n\n- When a fetch is refused because of where the web address came from, the call now ends with an error and does not ask you.\n\n**Why**\n\nIn a remote session, this affects which permission questions you see and whether one stays open waiting for you.\n\n- Flag `tengu_rosy_flute`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.285; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: on) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Flag `tengu_velvet_cairn`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.285; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: on) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Web Fetch\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5"}
