What

Claude Code hides secrets in text by replacing them with [redacted]. It covers values after words like key, token, password or credential, plus Bearer and Basic login values. These patterns were simpler before. They now also catch secrets written with:

  • Unicode spaces and invisible characters
  • escaped quote marks
  • fullwidth colons, the wider colon used in some Asian scripts
Why

Fewer secrets slip through into logs and output when they are written in these less common ways.
