Claude Code v2.1.44

3 entries read diff v2.1.42 → v2.1.44 Markdown

This release improves OAuth token handling by adding automatic token recovery when tokens are revoked. Previously, users with revoked OAuth tokens would see authentication failures; now the CLI automatically detects revoked tokens and refreshes them transparently.

Automatic Recovery from Revoked OAuth Tokens#

OAuth tokens can be revoked server-side (e.g., when users revoke access from their Claude.ai account settings). Previously, this would cause authentication failures in various API calls. This release adds automatic token refresh when a revoked token is detected across multiple code paths:

  • Fast mode prefetch (checking if your organization has fast mode enabled)
  • Metrics opt-out status checks
  • General API retry logic

The CLI now catches HTTP 403 responses containing "OAuth token has been revoked" and automatically refreshes the token before retrying the request.

Evidence

OAuth token revocation check helper (search for "OAuth token has been revoked") — GOA() at line ~211503; token refresh function Ju() at line ~114161

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.

#

  • Import style refactoring: Several Node.js imports changed from default imports to named imports (e.g., import { spawn } from "child_process" instead of import child_process from "child_process"). This is an internal refactoring with no user-facing impact.
  • The verbose logging message "Metrics opt-out check failed: {error}" was removed; auth errors are now handled via the standard recovery flow rather than being logged separately.
