What
Claude Code ships its own copy of zod, a library that checks whether data has the expected shape. In this copy:
the pattern used to recognise an email address is rewritten
the table of format patterns is now frozen, meaning it cannot be changed while Claude Code runs
some smaller parts, for lists of fixed length and for unions told apart by one field, are adjusted
Why
This is an update to a bundled library, not a Claude Code feature. The new email pattern is the kind of rewrite that avoids very slow checking on unusual input.
