Claude Code v2.1.286 ·

Better recovery when the API rejects several beta features at once

Claude Code now spots every rejected beta feature in an API error, including thinking display settings, instead of checking for just one

What

Beta features are optional extras Claude Code asks the API for with each request. When a request is refused because of one of them, Claude Code used to check for a single specific feature. It now works out a list of all the beta features the error points to, including a new case where the API rejects the setting for how thinking is displayed. The check for rejected effort settings was also rewritten.

Why

This should help Claude Code recover more often when a proxy or gateway between you and the API refuses beta features.
