Breaking changes and deprecations
- 2.1.316
- Deprecated fast mode for Opus 4.8 as of October 30, 2026; it will be removed on November 30, 2026. After removal, fast mode requests on Opus 4.8 return an error and do not fall back to standard Opus 4.8. Migrate to Op…
- 2.1.300
- Removed the --sandbox and --no-sandbox flags from claude remote-control, which had no effect; passing either now exits with an error. Set sandbox.enabled in settings to sandbox sessions
- 2.1.299
- Added size, weight, mono and tabular to a mod's Text and named spacing steps (xs to xl) to its Box; bold is deprecated in favor of weight

- Added CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_ULTRATHINK, which turns the ultrathink keyword off
- Added pooled group budgets to the Claude apps gateway: one monthly budget that a group's members share, on top of each member's own limit, set with pooled_budget on the spend limits admin API
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_LOOPED_CROSS_CERT_DROP to keep system cross-certificates that certify each other in a loop, for servers whose private CA needs one
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_SUBAGENT_EFFORT to set the effort level subagents run at when nothing else names one, instead of inheriting the session's
- Added managed.policy_mode: layered to the Claude apps gateway: every policy that matches a developer applies, each merged over the ones listed below it, not only the first
- Added guardrail.input_tagging on Claude apps gateway Bedrock upstreams, which wraps prompts in the input tags that an Amazon Bedrock guardrail's prompt attacks filter needs; all_messages_and_system also tags the syste…

- Fixed shell commands being left running on macOS and Linux when Claude Code exits by itself, for example when credentials are refused or a cloud session is archived
- Fixed bash aliases with line breaks in their value (except in Git Bash), and functions whose names start with a dash, being garbled or lost in the Bash tool's shell
- Fixed bash scripts started from the Bash tool stopping after their first command when SHELLOPTS is exported
-
- Added permissions.blockWritesOutsideWorkingDirectories: Write, Edit and NotebookEdit refuse paths outside the working directories in every permission mode
- Added an optional groups list to Claude apps gateway upstreams: only developers in the listed IdP groups are sent to that upstream, on failover too
- Added guardrail_trace to Claude apps gateway Bedrock upstreams, to log which Amazon Bedrock guardrail filter fired on a request, without the matched text
- Added idle compaction to VS Code and Claude Desktop's Code tab: a 200K+ token conversation left idle is summarized, and the summary is used on your next message if the prompt cache has expired
- Fixed sessions failing turn after turn with "Invalid effort level" when an organization's admin caps a model's effort: Claude Code now lowers the effort, retries, and says which level it uses
- Fixed claude -p exiting with code 0 and no output when startup failed; it now prints the error and exits 1
- Fixed Bedrock sessions with many images failing every turn and /compact with "400 Input is too long." instead of removing older images and compacting
- Fixed Microsoft Foundry sessions failing when the resource has no deployment for the default Sonnet, Opus or Haiku model: Claude Code now falls back to an older model of that family
- Fixed repeated refused requests behind a gateway that doesn't accept tool search's tool_reference blocks: the request is sent again once without tool search, and the session remembers
- Fixed TLS connections failing with UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT when the system certificate store holds a renewed root certificate that is cross-signed with its predecessor
-
- Added oidc.user_id_claim to the Claude apps gateway, to identify people by an id_token claim other than sub, such as Microsoft Entra ID's oid
- Added click to send: in fullscreen, clicking the "to send now" hint under a queued message sends it right away, as its key does
- Fixed managed settings and organization policy not being fetched for the rest of the session after signing in from the VS Code extension
- Fixed Claude overwriting a very large CLAUDE.md, rules file or @-included file in a subdirectory after seeing only its start; Write now asks Claude to read it all or edit in place
- Fixed per-directory and paths: skills not being found after a Bash cd deeper into a git repository
- Fixed a rare case where the first reply after resuming a session in the terminal could be missing the next time the session was resumed
- Fixed a command with an invalid name stopping all commands from loading, which could leave claude -p with no output
- Fixed the Read tool sometimes failing on PDF pages with "pdftoppm failed: Could not write image" when the clean-up of old session files ran at the same time
- Fixed the spinner, OpenTelemetry effort values and transcripts naming a newly picked effort level during a task before the model applied it; they now show the level in force
- Fixed the /model and /effort cache warning saying the re-read waits for your next message; a change made while Claude is working can trigger it sooner
-
- Added --hold-idle-file and --max-hold-min to self-hosted-runner, to keep an idle session while your host reports processes it left running
- Added a tip for the Explanatory output style, shown when you ask Claude for explanations
- Fixed long freezes at startup and after reading or editing files when a CLAUDE.md file holds a very long list item
- Fixed interrupting Claude not taking effect until a timeout while an MCP server had not answered a resource read or a skill was still downloading
- Fixed standard-context sessions stopping with "Usage credits required for 1M context" when a request ran over 200K tokens; Claude Code now compacts the conversation and continues
- Fixed Write and Edit stalling for up to 5 seconds after they ran, and reporting 0 lines changed, when changing thousands of lines in a file
- Fixed subagents being unable to use MCP tools from servers that finish connecting after the subagent starts
- Fixed Claude seeing stale MEMORY.md and CLAUDE.md content right after automatic compaction when those files were edited earlier in the session
- Fixed claude -p and SDK sessions saving transcript messages out of order or keeping messages that were taken back
- Fixed SubagentStop hooks running about twice a minute for each running subagent instead of once when it finishes
-
- Added the Monitor tool and plugin monitors on Bedrock, Vertex, and Foundry, and when telemetry or nonessential traffic is disabled; long foreground sleeps are now blocked there too
- Fixed requests failing behind some gateways and compatible servers that reject the effort-2025-11-24 beta value or mid-conversation system messages; Claude Code now retries without them
- Fixed background cleanup deleting some recent files, such as pasted images, when cleanupPeriodDays is set to a very large value
- Fixed compaction after a "Prompt is too long" error keeping too much of a conversation with dense text, such as base64 or SVG, so the next request could fail again
- Fixed file read permission prompts not showing where a symbolic link leads
- Fixed a question's auto-continue timeout firing the moment the external editor closed after a long edit
- Windows: Fixed PreToolUse and PermissionRequest hooks letting a tool call through when Git Bash is missing and the hook's command is only quoted strings, such as a quoted path
- Improved auto mode's prompt before the first read outside the working directories: it now says when blocking those reads makes shell commands ask for permission
- Improved memory use of non-interactive sessions (-p, Agent SDK) during compaction when the transcript file is very large
- Improved a mod's Image to draw inside tmux with allow-passthrough and focus-events on, in kitty, Ghostty, and iTerm2 3.5+ with fullscreen rendering, where it showed only its alt text
-
- Fixed sandboxed Bash commands on macOS and Linux running the shell's startup files outside the sandbox before each command
- Fixed macOS sandbox denyWrite glob patterns not applying at a path's real location when the pattern's folder is reached through a symlink
- Fixed sandboxed commands and auto-accepted edits being able to modify the MCP config file passed with --mcp-config
- Fixed a disabled MCP server being reconnected by a later permission prompt in print and SDK sessions
- Fixed the Bash permission check trusting a variable set by a command whose redirect can fail to open
- Fixed Bash permission checks not prompting for some compound commands that change directory before running git when the cd is wrapped or prefixed, as they do for a plain cd
- Fixed an Edit(path) deny rule not blocking a Bash redirect to that path in some commands that also held a subshell
- Fixed worktree-isolated sessions accepting some locale-prefixed commands the isolation guard should refuse
- Fixed worktree-isolated sessions on zsh accepting some arithmetic commands that the isolation guard should refuse
- Fixed worktrees and branch checkouts that Claude Code creates so they ignore git replace refs, as its other git operations already do
-
- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
-
- Added /claude-api api-version to move Claude API code to API version 2026-10-21
- Added the claude_code.safety_event OpenTelemetry event for each tool call a permission rule, auto mode, a safety check, a hook or the sandbox stopped, prompted or sent back
- Fixed requests failing with a model-not-found error when CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_1M_CONTEXT is set and the model is an alias with the [1m] suffix, such as opus[1m]
- Fixed the prompt-caching-scope beta header being sent behind custom ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL gateways and on Foundry, where it has no effect
- Fixed MCP servers showing "needs authentication" in claude -p on macOS while the login keychain was locked; they now say why, and the next run after an unlock connects without a new sign-in
- Fixed MCP servers being reported as timed out, and staying failed in headless runs, when a macOS or Linux computer went to sleep while they were connecting
- Fixed HTTP MCP tool calls being sent twice when the connection closed mid-call; only read-only or idempotent tools are now retried
- Fixed a turn sometimes starting without an SDK MCP server's latest tools when a background task was running
- Fixed some "Autocompact is thrashing" errors in turns that read many PDF pages, images or other large tool results
- Fixed /autocompact in cloud sessions going back to the default window after the session restarted
-
- Fixed claude -p inside cloud sessions reporting "Not logged in" when started without the session's environment variables
- Fixed an API error being replaced by "prompt is too long", and an unneeded compaction, in sessions with many MCP tools
-
- Added sandbox.allowNestedUserNamespaces so sandboxed commands on Linux can create user namespaces (Chromium, rootless podman); this lets them get around the sandbox's file protections
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_RETRY_WATCHDOG_USAGE_LIMIT_RECHECK_MS so unattended retry mode (CLAUDE_CODE_RETRY_WATCHDOG) notices a usage limit that was lifted before its reset
- Fixed every request failing on Vertex, Bedrock and other providers when the endpoint or a gateway rejects tool search, and behind gateways with ToolSearch disallowed or left out of --tools (a 2.1.304 regression): Clau…
- Fixed /effort and /autocompact settings not applying when the model name differed from a modelOverrides value by letter case or a [1m] tag
- Fixed new worktrees in a bare repository sometimes starting from local HEAD instead of the default branch, and unchanged subagent worktrees sometimes not being cleaned up
- Fixed Bash commands on a full disk failing with a raw ENOSPC file path: the error now says the disk is full and that nothing ran
- Fixed an MCP server passed by a cloud session or by the SDK's setMcpServers being replaced later in the session by a same-named server from your own settings
- Fixed Claude naming the wrong model for a subagent's work after the subagent switched to a fallback model
- Fixed cloud sessions and teammates not telling Claude when a compaction had to leave the oldest messages out of its summary to fit
- Fixed more cases of scheduled Cowork cloud sessions waiting five minutes for each subagent whose WebFetch needed a URL approval that nobody was there to give
-
- Added a transcript line when a plugin that runs first skips one of your mod's hooks, naming the event and the plugin
- Added decider: "person" to a mod's tool.check answer: only the permission dialog or a host's callback can approve the ask, and it is refused with the mod's reason where nobody can be asked
- Added e.isReadOnly to a mod's tool.check event, set when the tool call is read-only
- Added /auto-mode-setup: a guided setup that reads your project and recent sessions to teach auto mode about your environment, now also available on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, Claude apps gateway and telemetry-disabled…
- Added /claude-api managed-agents-secure, which compares a Managed Agents agent's settings with Anthropic's published security guide, without changing anything
- Added the names of the tools called earlier to the compaction summary in the transcript view (Ctrl+O)
- Added a warning on Pro and Max plans when resuming an inactive conversation would use a noticeable share of your 5-hour usage limit: resume anyway, or start a new conversation and Claude can look up the previous one i…
- Fixed the organization policy not refreshing until the hourly check after approving an ANTHROPIC_API_KEY at startup or switching "Use custom API key" in /config
- Fixed sandboxed commands failing to start on Linux when a sandbox.filesystem.denyRead glob contains brackets that are not a character class, such as a [user-id] route folder
- Fixed rm -r of a mounted drive or a folder at its top level (/Volumes, /media, WSL's /mnt/c) not getting the safety prompt that rm -rf /Applications gets
-
- Bug fixes and reliability improvements
-
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_MODE_MODEL to choose the model the client-side auto mode classifier uses; it does not change the model for server-side auto mode
- Added an Idle compaction row to /config for turning idle compaction off or back on; the notices shown after an idle compaction now say how to turn it off
- Added a notice to /design-sync and /design-login that standalone Claude Design (claude.ai/design) closes by December 14, 2026
- Fixed a "Prompt is too long" error when stopping a turn while the conversation was being compacted
- Fixed requests failing with "diagnostics: Extra inputs are not permitted" after switching to Vertex or Bedrock mid-session
- Fixed the Read tool loading an image file of any size, or a pipe or device named like an image, entirely into memory; image sources over 128 MB are now refused
- Fixed /autocompact and /effort saving to the wrong model when a gateway names Opus 4 or 4.1 with a prefix, such as anthropic/claude-opus-4-1
- Fixed a prompt cache miss when a tool added mid-session was loaded again through ToolSearch or after compaction
- Fixed claude plugin and other subcommands sometimes exiting before a queued settings or config write finished, which could lose the change or leave a .tmp file behind
- Fixed plugin marketplaces re-cloning on every refresh, and newly installed git plugins showing version "unknown", when git defaults to the reftable ref format
-
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_RETRY_WATCHDOG_MAX_USAGE_LIMIT_WAIT_MS so unattended retry mode (CLAUDE_CODE_RETRY_WATCHDOG) ends a request at a usage limit that resets too far away instead of waiting
- Added OpenTelemetry tracing guidance to the claude-api skill, including setting up trace destinations with the ant CLI
- Added the % motion to vim mode: jump to the matching bracket, alone or with d/c/y
- Added rows to a mod's Input: a text field of several lines in the terminal, where Enter submits and Shift+Enter or a backslash before Enter starts a new line
- Added classifier_verdict and permission_mode to OpenTelemetry tool_decision events, so auto mode classifier decisions can be told apart from permission rules
- Added classifier_category to OpenTelemetry tool_decision events, naming the built-in rule a classifier block matched, when OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1
- Fixed quitting removing a worktree made by a WorktreeCreate hook without asking when it may hold unpushed commits
- Fixed the fable (and best) model alias erroring on the Anthropic API when the newest Fable model is not available to your organization: Claude Code now retries once on the previous Fable model
- Fixed a misleading "Please run /login" error when a full disk keeps the login from being refreshed; the error now names the disk and says to delete files
- Fixed Grep and Glob reporting no matches when the search program failed unexpectedly before returning any results; they now return an error saying the search failed
-
- Breaking Removed the --sandbox and --no-sandbox flags from claude remote-control, which had no effect; passing either now exits with an error. Set sandbox.enabled in settings to sandbox sessions
- Added virtualText to a mod's prompt decorations: text drawn in the prompt box that never enters the draft or the submitted prompt
- Added cache_creation_5m_tokens and cache_creation_1h_tokens to the OpenTelemetry api_request event, splitting cache writes by lifetime
- Added $.ui.view({ agentId }) for mods: shows an agent's transcript in the main view when you ask, and $.ui.view({}) goes back
- Added a dir prop on a mod's Text for right-to-left text: on Windows and in VS Code's terminal its rows read in that direction and sit flush right
- Added /advisor on Claude Platform on AWS; no advisor runs until you pick one with /advisor, advisorModel or --advisor, and CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_ADVISOR_TOOL=1 turns it off
- Added OpenTelemetry GenAI semantic-convention attributes to trace spans, such as gen_ai.provider.name, gen_ai.conversation.id, gen_ai.tool.name and error.type
- Added support for rewriting a workflow agent's prompt and model in the agent.spawn mod hook, which could only refuse workflow agents before
- Added the prompt.change mod hook, raised when the prompt box's text changes without a typed edit: a recalled history entry, a clear, an undo, or a plugin's fill
- Fixed cloud sessions telling Claude that an organization policy blocked a host when the session's own network settings did
- Fixed /autocompact warning about high token usage when you choose a smaller auto-compact window
-
- Breaking Added size, weight, mono and tabular to a mod's Text and named spacing steps (xs to xl) to its Box; bold is deprecated in favor of weight
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_FILE_MENTIONS environment variable: Claude gets the paths of @ file mentions to read with its file tools, not the files' contents
- Added idle compaction in the terminal: a 200K+ token conversation left idle for about 54 minutes is compacted before its one-hour prompt cache expires, so your next message doesn't reprocess it all
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_IDLE_COMPACT_MIN_TOKENS to change idle compaction's 200K-token minimum; "idleCompaction": false in settings.json turns it off. Both need v2.1.290 or later
- Added $.prompt.media so a prompt.submit hook of a mod installed by managed settings can read the bytes of an image or document attached to the prompt
- Added $.session.identity() for mods installed by managed settings: how the session is signed in, and its organization and email when managed forceLoginOrgUUID lists that organization
- Added size, weight, mono and tabular to a mod's Text and named spacing steps (xs to xl) to its Box; bold is deprecated in favor of weight
- Added --shutdown-drain-sec to claude self-hosted-runner orchestrator: on SIGTERM it stops polling and gives the poll in flight and running spawn hooks up to that many seconds to finish
- Added the skill's frontmatter, source, plugin name and file path to what a mod's skill.prompt hook receives
- Added /effort and /fast in agent view to set what new sessions start with; a bare /model, /effort or /fast there now opens a picker
- Added a "safe mode" line to the agents view peek panel for background sessions started with --safe-mode
-
- Added a code key to the Claude apps gateway's managed.policies[]: the same settings as cli, also applied in Claude Desktop's Code tab; beside desktop, it turns on Claude Desktop's gateway mode
- Added autoCompactWindow to subagent frontmatter and --agents definitions, so a subagent can auto-compact earlier than the main conversation's window
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_WORKFLOW_SUBAGENT_MODEL to run every workflow agent on one model while other subagents keep theirs
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_OVERLOADED_RETRY_MAX_DELAY_MS environment variable to set a longer maximum delay for the backoff when retrying an overloaded (529) request
- Added a note in /plugin on a plugin whose hooks are left out because another enabled plugin has the same name
- Added an allow_large option to the Read tool so Claude can read a text file past the usual size limits in one call when it needs the whole file and the context has room
- Fixed managed-settings PreToolUse hooks that deny a tool call with "continue": false, and managed prompt hooks that block one, refusing the call but not ending the turn
- Fixed PostToolUse hooks in managed settings not applying updatedMCPToolOutput in some sessions
- Fixed headless sessions starting a folder's .mcp.json or plugin MCP server that was switched off for that folder, after changing directory or reloading plugins
- Fixed a Claude apps gateway that serves allowedProviders with "gateway" locking out laptops that name that gateway in user settings
-
- Added onFailure: "block" for command and HTTP hooks: a hook that can't start, times out, or exits with an unexpected code blocks the action instead of letting it through
- Added Program Status Protocol (OSC 7501) support: terminals that implement it can show whether Claude Code is working, waiting on you, or done
- Added quoted text to the /copy picker, so a drafted message copies without its > markers
- Added a warning to claude plugin install, enable, disable and marketplace add when the settings file they write to does not load
- Added a line on stderr, when it is a terminal, that says what a claude -p run is waiting for when it stays open after its last turn
- Added support for timeouts.upstream_ttfb_ms on the Claude apps gateway's Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry and other cloud upstreams: a value you set now limits how long a stream may take to start there, after which it fails o…
- Added a "Backgrounding cancelled" message when you stop the turn while ← is waiting for the current tool to finish
- Added an optional models list to every Claude apps gateway upstream: only the listed models are sent there, on failover too, and one in an entry is a wildcard
- Added support for forceLoginMethod: "gateway" and forceLoginGatewayUrl in your own user settings on machines with no managed settings, so /login opens on that Claude apps gateway
- Added advice to claude plugin validate when a plugin's README has no install line: it prints the line to paste and never changes the exit code, even with --strict
-
- Fixed prompt and agent hooks written as instructions (such as "Block commands that...") allowing what they should block
- Improved how prompt hooks on Stop and SubagentStop written as instructions (such as "Carry on if the build is broken") are judged, so Claude is less likely to stop early
-
- Added Claude Haiku 5.5 (claude-haiku-5-5), now the default Haiku model on the Anthropic API — 1M context, $0.10/$0.50 per Mtok ($0.50/$2.50 for prompts over 100K)
- Added agentType to the subagentStatusLine payload, so scripts can tell custom subagent types apart
- Added isDeferred to $.tool.register for mods: false lists the tool's schema in the prompt from the start instead of behind tool search
- Fixed Claude sometimes treating its own last actions before a context compaction as done after it, and retracting or redoing finished work
- Fixed a memory leak where an HTTP MCP connection kept every request it had sent until it closed
- Fixed a message sent while Claude was working being lost when ← moved the session to the background; if a queued message can't move, ← now stays put and says so
- Fixed /model effort ←/→ wrapping past the highest or lowest level, which could accidentally save Low as a model's default effort
- Fixed /tui disconnecting Claude in Chrome in a session started with --chrome, and ignoring --no-chrome
- Fixed Claude being told to continue or message subagents with SendMessage in sessions, including resumed ones, where a host, a permission rule or a --tools list removed that tool
- Fixed subagents and --agent sessions being told a built-in tool was disabled for the whole session when only their own tool list left it out
-
- Added --marketplace to claude plugin install: adds the marketplace if needed, under the same policy checks as claude plugin marketplace add, then installs the plugin from it
- Added an effort parameter to the Agent tool, so Claude runs a sub-agent at the effort level you ask for
- Added CLAUDE_CODE_OVERLOADED_RETRY_BASE_DELAY_MS environment variable to set a longer base delay for the backoff when retrying an overloaded (529) request
- Added prompt.autocomplete, an event a mod hooks to add its own rows to the prompt box's autocomplete list
- Added prompt caching to $.model.complete for mods: prompt and system take blocks of text, and cache: true on a block caches the request up to it
- Added workflow agents to the agent.spawn mod hook, with their run and index, so a mod can refuse them
- Fixed subagent definitions with permissionMode: auto entering auto mode when auto mode is unavailable (disabled by settings, circuit breaker, or a model that doesn't support it)
- Fixed sandboxed commands being able to read the staged file copies of /ultrareview uploads under ~/.claude/seed-admin
- Fixed a managed sandbox read-deny path (and user ones beside it) that appears or re-points mid-session not dropping project grants inside it or ending credential injection from files it covers
- Fixed a notebook or PDF read on macOS and Windows being able to return a file outside what was approved, through a link swapped in mid-read
-
- Fixed a regression in 2.1.290 where cloud sessions could drop answers to permission prompts
- Fixed a regression in 2.1.288 where the last messages of a session could be lost when quitting
-
- Added serverToolUses to the result of a mod's turn.step hook: the tool calls the API ran itself (the advisor), each with its id, name, input, start and end
- Added agentId to the tool.check event of plugin hooks, so a hook can tell a subagent's permission check from the main session's
- Added ceiling to the question and verdict a mod's tool.check hook reads, naming the approval an organization requires for a tool
- Added ThemeKey and Color types to the plugin hooks typings, so an editor lists the theme colors a mod's drawing can name
- Added to claude plugin validate: each hook a mod registers at a gating site is listed with whether it has a .catch (gatingHooks under --json)
- Added a Deny button to the Claude apps gateway's sign-in approval page: it ends the pending sign-in, so the waiting terminal stops within seconds
- Added claude attach and claude logs : part of a session name works in place of the id
- Added /claude-api managed-agents-onboard to set up the Managed Agents pattern a page describes as ant apply files
- Added /claude-api managed-agents-onboard to build a Console quickstart template, such as deep-researcher, with the ant CLI
- Added a warning when a managed settings file is a link to a file outside the managed settings folder
-
- Fixed a deny or ask rule on a nested part of a compound shell command not holding over a user-installed mod's approval on managed machines
- Fixed the terminal freezing on short code blocks with many unclosed tags or deeply nested ${ substitutions
- Fixed Read deny rules not applying to files @-mentioned, changed, or selected in the IDE through a symlink
- [VSCode] Reverted a 2.1.288 change to claude auth status that may have made sign-outs more frequent
- Improved how quickly large files open in a plugin code pane by laying the highlighted view out once at its final width
- Fixed plugin list, plugin eval and plugin update showing a stale copy of a plugin installed from a local folder marketplace, and hot reload for a symlinked --plugin-dir
- Fixed installed mods not loading in the first session after an upgrade
- Fixed a plugin's rows above the prompt showing a stale row while the Background tasks dialog was open in fullscreen
- Fixed plugin panes drawing nothing when a link used a localhost address, an @ in its path, an uppercase host or a file: path
- Fixed a user-installed plugin being able to rewrite the descriptions of an organization-managed MCP server's sign-in tools
-
- Added $.ui.selection() for mods: returns the text you last selected in fullscreen mode and, when the selection lies within one transcript row, that row
- Added a built-in gh api to cloud sessions whose image has no GitHub CLI, and fixed the built-in sending control characters from file names, jq filters or GitHub errors to the terminal
- Added recovery for a prompt cleared with Ctrl+C: pressing Up on the empty prompt brings the draft back, including pasted text and images
- Added a re-authenticate prompt when an MCP server asks for more OAuth scope during a tool call
- Added --max-findings |all to /code-review to report more or fewer findings than the usual limit; the choice is reused until you pass --max-findings default
- Added Ctrl+F to find a session by name and Alt+↑/↓ to jump between groups in the agents view; both, and rename, can be rebound in keybindings.json
- Added a screen reader mode announcement of the new permission mode when you approve a plan, including with Shift+Tab
- Fixed mid-response API timeouts failing the turn: non-interactive sessions and subagents now continue from the partial response, and thinking-only responses are retried
- Fixed long conversations failing with "Prompt is too long" instead of auto-compacting when the last reply reported zero token usage
- Fixed --resume sometimes dropping files and other context that a compaction had just restored
