What probably matters to you Section of the release
What
The /copy picker, which lets you choose part of Claude's reply to copy, used to offer only code blocks. It now also lists blockquotes, the indented quoted passages in a reply, and you can copy one on its own.
Why
You can pull a quoted passage out of a reply without copying the whole response.

Names in this entry
slash /copy Copy the last assistant response to clipboard. Pass a number N to copy the Nth-latest response: /copy 2 copies the second-to-last. When code blocks are present, shows an interactive picker to select individual blocks or the full response. Press w in the picker to write the selection to a file instead of the clipboard, which is useful over SSH
Anthropic's note
Upstream's own release notes for v2.1.295 name something this entry names, so the two are probably about the same change. Probably: the pairing is made on a shared name rather than on the words around it.
