Claude Code

What's changed

• Added gateway spend-limit support to Claude Code's usage warning; the limit-reached message now names the cap, its reset time, and the operator's message (requires the gateway on 2.1.225)
• Added a workspace trust prompt to claude agents for untrusted directories, matching the behavior of claude
• Fixed a transient 401 replacing a long-lived CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN with a stored login's short-lived token, breaking headless sessions until restart
• Fixed MCP OAuth servers on macOS intermittently failing with a burst of 401 errors, as if never authenticated, after a keychain read timed out
• Fixed auto mode counting a safety-filter refusal of its own permission check toward the consecutive-block limit; the action is still denied, but the model is now told to move on rather than retry
• Fixed cross-session messages staying parked without a notice or expiry in headless sessions and during startup
• Fixed conversation history breaking on Remote Control session resume after very large conversations were compacted
• Fixed hovering over a session in another project in the agents list changing the directory the next agent starts in

What's changed

• Added self-hosted environments: claude self-hosted-runner turns your own machines or containers into a place Claude Code web, mobile, and desktop sessions can run, on Team and Enterprise plans
• Added archive plugin source: install plugins from a zip over HTTPS without git or npm, with optional SHA-256 pinning
• Added a cancel-and-confirm step when removing an unavailable paste changes a command's text
• Added ANTHROPIC_BEDROCK_REGION_PREFIX env var for Bedrock to prefer a specific cross-region inference profile over the AWS_REGION-derived one
• Added crossSessionInbound and dialogExpiry settings: cross-session messages sent to a session running with bypassed permissions are held for your approval, and messages to other sessions auto-deliver
• Added sandbox credential-masking options: extract and onExtractNoMatch for structured env values, decode: "jwt" with maskClaims for JWT-aware masking, and awsPairs/sigv4 for AWS SigV4 re-signing; these need network.tlsTerminate and are honored only from user, managed, or --settings settings

What's changed

• Added owner wildcard entries ("owner/*") to the strictKnownMarketplaces and blockedMarketplaces managed settings for allowing or blocking all marketplace repos under a GitHub org
• Added a warning when workflow agents, forked skills, slash commands, or resumed background agents' requested subagent model is restricted and the parent model runs instead
• Added a /teleport hint in cloud sessions showing how to continue locally with claude --teleport <session id>
• Fixed a Bash permission bypass where a crafted command could hide parts of itself from permission checks
• Fixed permission prompts so commands padded with tabs or invisible Unicode can no longer hide part of the command from the approval dialog
• Fixed workflow scripts being able to use dynamic import() to run code outside the workflow sandbox
• Fixed a permission gap where an agent definition's bypassPermissions mode ignored the org bypass-permissions disable policy
• Fixed resuming a session after a mid-session /cd coming back empty
• Fixed gateway model discovery hiding Claude models registered under provider-prefixed IDs such as vertex_ai/claude-* or bedrock/anthropic.claude-*

What's changed

• Fixed worktree-isolated sessions and their subagents being able to run destructive git commands against the main checkout; isolation now applies to file edits and Bash in every session type
• Fixed PreToolUse auto-allow hooks bypassing tool restrictions in background agent tasks (summaries, compaction, renames)
• Fixed /usage-credits on Team and Enterprise showing "you've already sent a usage credit request" for members whose earlier request was dismissed, blocking them from sending a new one
• Fixed the startup connectivity check hanging and then failing behind an HTTPS proxy; it now uses the same proxy-aware transport as API requests and times out with a clear message
• Fixed "Connection closed mid-response" errors being reported on responses that had actually completed
• Fixed /usage overattributing usage to MCP servers: a server's share now reflects only the requests that actually consumed its tool results, instead of every turn after any call to it
• Fixed sessions not linking to pull requests created after the branch was pushed, including through the GitHub REST API

What's changed

• [VSCode] Added Focus view: a chat-menu toggle that hides tool activity behind an expandable per-turn summary with a live running-tool indicator, toggled with Ctrl+Alt+F or the "Claude Code: Toggle Focus view" command
• Added mode: "mask" for sandbox credential files on Linux and WSL — sandboxed commands read a sentinel copy (the whole file, or just the spans captured by an extract regex) while the sandbox proxy substitutes the real value on egress; on macOS file masking falls back to deny
• Added warnings to claude plugin validate when a marketplace or plugin name would be rejected by Claude Desktop's managed marketplace sync
• Added a prompt-audit subcommand to the claude-api skill for auditing prompts and tool descriptions for patterns written for older models
• Fixed a Bash tool permission-check bypass where zsh could execute hidden commands in [[ ]] regex conditionals; affected commands now prompt for permission
• Fixed PowerShell permission checks mishandling paths containing quote characters on Windows; such paths now prompt for approval

What's changed

• Added Claude Opus 5 (claude-opus-5), now the default Opus model — 1M context, fast mode at $10/$50 per Mtok
• Added sandbox.network.strictAllowlist setting to deny non-allowlisted hosts for sandboxed commands without prompting
• Added DirectoryAdded hook that fires after /add-dir or the SDK register_repo_root control request registers a new working directory mid-session
• Added mcp_server_errors to the headless stream-json init event, listing --mcp-config entries skipped by config validation; terminal runs print a startup warning
• Added the workflowSizeGuideline settings key so the advisory Dynamic workflow size guideline can be set from any settings file; the /config row is hidden while one does
• Added nested subagent forwarding in stream-json: subagents spawned at depth-2+ now appear when --forward-subagent-text is set, keyed by their spawning Agent tool_use id
• Fixed claude -p text output dropping the answer already produced when a turn dies on a mid-stream API error

What's changed

• Changed /code-review to run as a background subagent, so review work no longer fills your conversation and keeps stacked slash commands as its review target
• Added screen-reader announcements of deleted text for word and line deletions (Option+Delete, Ctrl+W, Cmd+Backspace, Ctrl+U, Ctrl+K) in --ax-screen-reader mode
• Fixed Windows paths with \u-prefixed segments (like C:\Users\unicorn) being corrupted into CJK characters in tool inputs, which made those files inaccessible
• Fixed the left arrow key discarding the conversation with no undo: presses right after editing now ask to confirm, and Esc in the agent view returns to the conversation it backgrounded
• Added HTTP status and error text to claude mcp list and /mcp when a server fails to connect, and a warning for MCP config values with hidden leading or trailing whitespace
• Fixed multi-line paste collapsing into one line with j in place of newlines in terminals that encode pasted newlines as Ctrl+J
• Fixed /context reporting stale pre-compact token usage after compacting from the message picker

What's changed

• Added emoji shortcode autocomplete in the prompt input: type :heart: to insert ❤️, or :hea for suggestions — disable with the emojiCompletionEnabled setting
• Added warnings when transcript writes are failing (e.g. disk full) or when session saving is off due to an inherited environment variable, instead of losing transcripts silently
• Fixed a memory leak where truncated MCP tool outputs kept the full untruncated result in memory for the rest of the session
• Fixed Windows auto-update failures that could leave claude.exe missing; failed updates now restore the preserved executable automatically
• Fixed background session isolation not canonicalizing symlinked working directories, which could let sessions escape their workspace folder
• Fixed auto-compact never triggering for Claude Opus 4.8 on Bedrock and /compact failing once over the limit
• Fixed corporate mTLS, TLS-verify, OAuth scope, and proxy settings being ignored in Claude Desktop sessions
• Fixed screen reader mode's startup announcement being cut off by the first prompt render, and the thinking status row re-rendering every few seconds to update elapsed time and token counts

What's changed

• Added sandbox.filesystem.disabled setting to skip filesystem isolation while keeping network egress control
• Fixed a slowdown in long sessions where message normalization cost grew quadratically with the number of turns, causing multi-second stalls and slow resumes
• Fixed auto mode denying commands with "HTTP 401" classifier errors after the OAuth token expired or rotated mid-session
• Fixed AskUserQuestion telling Claude to continue even when your answer asked it to wait or explain first — free-text answers now get neutral wording
• Fixed Claude Code on the web re-asking the same question and dropping your answer after the session sat idle for a few minutes
• Fixed @-mentions silently attaching nothing after file-modifying hooks, vim dot-repeat of c-operators and paste, statusline running twice on resume, and resume-picker hangs on failure
• Fixed resumed background agent sessions reverting to the default agent: the agent's prompt and tool restrictions are now restored
• Fixed worktree-isolated subagents redirecting git into the shared checkout via git -C, --git-dir, or GIT_DIR/GIT_WORK_TREE

What's changed

• Fixed single-segment dir/** allow rules like Edit(src/**) auto-approving writes to nested dir/ directories anywhere in the tree instead of only <cwd>/dir
• Fixed a permission-check bypass affecting commands run in Windows PowerShell 5.1 sessions
• Fixed Bash permission checks to fail closed on file-descriptor redirect forms that bash parses differently than the permission analyzer
• Fixed Bash permission checks misjudging very long commands — commands over 10,000 characters now always prompt instead of running automatically
• Fixed Bash permission checks treating zsh variable subscripts and modifiers in [[ ]] comparisons as inert text — these commands now prompt for approval
• Fixed Bash permission checks to no longer auto-approve certain help and man commands that could run unsafe options, command substitutions, or backslash paths
• Fixed permission prompts on remote sessions that could proceed before the local confirmation dialog
• Added the EndConversation tool: Claude can end sessions with highly abusive users or jailbreak attempts, as on claude.ai since 2025 — see https://www.anthropic.com/research/end-subset-conversations

What's changed

• /fork now copies your conversation into a new background session (its own row in claude agents) while you keep working; the in-session subagent it used to launch is now /subtask
• Added claude auto-mode reset to restore the default auto-mode configuration, with a confirmation prompt (pass --yes to skip)
• Added a session-wide limit on WebSearch tool calls (default 200, tunable via CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_WEB_SEARCHES_PER_SESSION) to stop runaway search loops
• Added a per-session cap on subagent spawns (default 200, override with CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_SUBAGENTS_PER_SESSION) to stop runaway delegation loops; /clear resets the budget
• MCP tool calls running longer than 2 minutes now move to the background automatically so the session stays usable; configure the threshold or disable with CLAUDE_CODE_MCP_AUTO_BACKGROUND_MS
• Typing /resume in the agent view now opens a picker of past sessions — including sessions deleted from the list — and resumes your pick as a background session
• Fixed plan mode auto-running file-modifying Bash commands (e.g. touch, rm) without a permission prompt or SDK canUseTool callback

What's changed

• Added --forward-subagent-text flag and CLAUDE_CODE_FORWARD_SUBAGENT_TEXT environment variable to include subagent text and thinking in stream-json output
• Fixed permission previews relayed to chat channels not neutralizing bidirectional-override, zero-width, and look-alike quote characters, so tool inputs cannot visually alter the approval message
• Fixed auto mode overriding a PreToolUse hook's ask decision for unsandboxed Bash — a hook ask now floors the decision at a prompt
• Fixed parallel Claude Code sessions all logging out simultaneously after wake-from-sleep when many sessions share one credential store
• Fixed plugin MCP servers not reconnecting after an idle web session woke, leaving MCP calls failing until the next message
• Fixed Claude Code on Vertex and Bedrock attempting the default Opus model at startup and printing a spurious fallback notice when a model is explicitly configured
• Fixed subagents spawned with an explicit model override reverting to the parent's model when resumed or sent a follow-up message
• Fixed nested .claude/rules/*.md files loading even when setting sources exclude project settings
