# Claude Code v2.1.299

> Claude Code v2.1.299, released 14 Oct 2026 (2026-10-14). 439 entries read out of the shipped bundle. Unofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic.

[Web version](https://changelogs.core-directive.com/v/2.1.299)

You can now set `subagentInheritVerifiedTurns` to true so subagents start with your earlier verified messages. MCP servers can now provide skills to Claude Code. Each skill's size and fingerprint is checked against the server's list before it loads. With `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_SHARE_BUNDLE` set, `/share` sends your whole session transcript along with your feedback. In remote sessions, `CLAUDE_CODE_REMOTE_MCP_CONFIG` points the runner to a file of MCP servers sent by the host. Routing WebFetch through a proxy now depends on `CLAUDE_CODE_WEBFETCH_USE_CCR_PROXY` instead of being worked out from session state.

19 entries are in the build but not switched on yet. Claude Code can fetch context for a claude.ai Project into a session, but only once it is turned on remotely. Apps built on the SDK will be able to word their own permission prompts from a PreToolUse hook. A stricter plan mode check can ask before any action that is not read-only. Project tools can read an uploaded PDF or Word file as the original document. Agents may later start in the background by default.

MCP allow rules no longer approve tools from a different MCP server. On Windows, sandboxed git now gets your git name and email for commits. Environment variables from settings or `/env` now reach sandboxed Windows commands too. The resume command printed on exit now includes `--worktree` for worktree sessions. If CLAUDE.md fails to load, Claude Code tries again later in the session. The MCP tasks feature is now off for everyone and can no longer be turned on remotely.
