What
An organization's policy can now announce a minimum Claude Code version that will be required from a given date. Claude Code can show a message reading "Claude Code X or later is required for your organization". While the requirement is still upcoming, the message starts with "From" and the date.
The notice does not appear when output is set to the machine-readable formats json or stream-json. The version and date come from your organization's settings on Anthropic's servers. There is nothing to switch on.
Why
You get time to update before an older version stops being accepted, rather than being refused without warning on the cutoff day.
