DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Claude Code v2.1.77

Lodash Internals Replaced

Many lodash utility functions (ListCache, Stack, MapCache, Hash, deep clone helpers, typed array checks, key enumeration, etc.) have been removed and replaced with lighter native JavaScript implementations. This reduces bundle size without changing external behavior.

Evidence

Structural diff shows ~150+ removed lodash functions (ListCache, MapCache, Hash, Stack prototypes, baseClone, baseAssign, baseKeys, etc.)

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

Related

Other releases about the same thing. Found by shared names or similar wording; neither means one caused the other.
