Claude Code

What's changed

• Added a diff panel that opens beside the conversation in fullscreen mode and shows your uncommitted changes as Claude edits; toggle it with /diff
• Added a likely cause for prompt-cache misses (e.g. tool definitions or system prompt changed, idle past the TTL) to /cost and the status line's prompt_cache field
• Added /reload-plugins to headless sessions, so it appears in the Claude Code Desktop and SDK command lists
• Added a text form of /advisor (/advisor, /advisor <model>, /advisor off) for the desktop app, Remote Control, and other headless (-p/Agent SDK) sessions
• Added oidc.scope_on_refresh to the Claude apps gateway for IdPs that return an id_token on refresh only when asked for openid again
• Added Claude apps gateway support for newer Claude Desktop keys in desktop policy blocks, including userPluginMarketplacesEnabled and userPluginUploadsEnabled
• Fixed Edit/Write/Read permission rules whose path contains parentheses being dropped as invalid or ignored by the Bash sandbox, which left "read-only" folders writable

What's changed

• Added managedMcpServers managed setting: organizations can provide HTTP/SSE MCP servers to every user (same entry shape as .mcp.json); entries that name a command to run are skipped
• Added --permission-prompts none for unattended headless hosts: anything that would prompt is denied automatically while the active permission mode (including auto mode) keeps deciding
• Added recognition of glab mr create/merge/close/reopen/note/update so GitLab merge requests show as MR !N in the collapsed tool summary and refresh the footer MR badge
• Added --json to claude plugin validate for a machine-readable validation report
• Fixed concurrent sessions silently reverting each other's ~/.claude.json changes — workspace trust no longer resets and MCP/project state is no longer lost when running many sessions at once
• Fixed a conversation whose thinking was rejected once being rejected again on every later turn
• Fixed Bash Read() deny rules not covering files given as option values (--ignore-revs-file=.env, -f.env, @file), git diff/git grep file operands, or cd DIR && cat FILE compounds; grep -r/cp -r over a directory holding a denied file

What's changed

• Added Claude Fable 5.1 (claude-fable-5-1), now the default Fable model — 1M context, $10/$50 per Mtok with $0.25/Mtok cache reads
• Added "Time format" (timeFormat) and timeZone settings: 12-hour, 24-hour, 24-hour UTC, or a strftime pattern for the turn-end clock and transcript-view timestamps
• Added a Containment Escape rule to auto mode so cloud metadata-credential fetches, egress evasion, and cross-tenant reach are no longer auto-approved unless your environment marks them expected
• Added CLAUDE_CODE_SUBAGENT_MODEL_FORCE to apply CLAUDE_CODE_SUBAGENT_MODEL (or the main model) to every subagent, ignoring per-spawn and agent-definition model overrides
• Added s in /effort to change effort for the current session only, matching /model
• Added a /doctor warning for stale sandbox mask files left by a killed session
• Added a one-time prompt in auto mode before the first file read outside the working directories, with the option to block such reads (permissions.blockReadsOutsideWorkingDirectories)

What's changed

• Added PreModelSwitch and PostModelSwitch hook events (block, confirm, or annotate a model switch); SessionStart resume hooks now receive session staleness and the estimated re-cache cost
• Added live streaming of a foreground subagent's tool calls and results to Remote Control clients (background subagents, the default, still show status only)
• Added a Spend limit bar to /usage and a rate_limits.spend_limit status line field for developers behind a Claude apps gateway with spend limits
• Added a per-session prompt-cache line to /cost (hit ratio, misses, tokens re-cached, warm/cold) and a matching prompt_cache object for status line scripts
• Added attach, logs, stop, respawn, and rm to claude --help; the --resume message for a running background session now names the exact claude attach <id> command
• Fixed file tools (Read, Write, Edit) following a symlink swapped inside the working directory after the permission check, which could read or write outside the approved location

What's changed

• Added --restricted (or CLAUDE_CODE_RESTRICTED=1): removes the built-in tools that run commands or code and WebFetch (unless named in --tools), keeps file tools inside the working directory, refuses bypassPermissions, and ignores user, project and local settings files
• Added experimental.cacheTtl ("5m" or "1h") to agent frontmatter: a per-agent prompt cache TTL used when no subagent TTL setting is configured
• Added claude self-hosted-runner --client-label <label> (or SELF_HOSTED_RUNNER_CLIENT_LABEL) to override the label the runner registers with (default: hostname)
• Added server-managed settings diagnostics: a startup warning when the settings fail to load, and a /doctor and /status line explaining a load failure or why they weren't fetched (Bedrock/Vertex/third-party provider, custom ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL)
• Added a warning in /web-setup when the GitHub CLI token lacks the workflow scope, since pushes to very large repositories can be rejected without it

What's changed

• Added the SendFeedback tool: when something goes wrong in a session, Claude can draft a feedback report for you to review and send from /feedback (turn off with the feedbackDrafts setting)
• Added {id, text, cooldownSessions, priority} entries, tipsFile, and label to spinnerTipsOverride, so organizations can rotate their own tips alongside the built-in ones
• Added a tip on Bash permission prompts pointing to auto mode, with a one-keystroke "Yes, and switch to auto mode" option
• Added /claude-api cost-optimize to profile an existing project's Claude API spend and work through cost levers (caching, token hygiene, batch, effort, model choice) one measured change at a time
• Updated the /claude-api skill with Admin API coverage (organization members, invites, workspaces, API keys, rate limit reports, workload identity federation, CMEK)
• Fixed fast arrow-key + Enter sequences acting on the row above the one you navigated to in history search, /config, /mcp, /skills, background tasks, and /model

What's changed

• Added a startup warning for Bash allow rules with a wildcard before the subcommand (e.g. Bash(git * main)), since they also match options inserted before the subcommand
• Added an Auto mode tab to /permissions for viewing and editing auto mode classifier rules
• Added the turn's completion time to the end-of-turn duration line, e.g. ✻ Sautéed for 23s · done 6:05 PM
• Fixed fullscreen mode showing a blank transcript after resizing the terminal and jumping to the bottom until the next keypress
• Fixed a severe transcript slowdown when a diff contained a very long single line (e.g. a base64 string); such lines now render truncated with a marker
• Fixed erratic fullscreen scrolling when positioned at an earlier message, including jump-to-bottom getting stuck mid-transcript
• Fixed background sessions failing to open after 45 seconds when Claude Code's starting directory had been deleted, the machine had slept, or the host is slow to start processes
• Fixed background sessions failing to open with "Couldn't start the background service … EACCES" when another Claude Code process was re-installing the npm package at that moment

• Added a Loops breakdown to /usage: per-loop run count, total tokens, tokens per run, and last run, so runaway or chatty /loop tasks are easy to spot
• Added modelPicker setting: curate the /model picker with an ordered, labeled list of models (any id spelling, including Vertex/Bedrock ids), appended to or replacing the built-in lineup
• Added promptCacheTtl and subagentPromptCacheTtl settings so API-key and cloud-provider users can keep a 1-hour prompt cache on the main conversation while subagents stay at 5 minutes
• Added modelPricing managed setting so an organization's contracted per-model rates and discount multiplier are used for /cost, the status line, and telemetry cost figures instead of list price
• Added a keyless sign-in under /login → Anthropic Console: "Sign in with your Console account" (recommended) alongside creating an API key, so organizations that don't allow API keys can sign in
• Added a Skipped sources line to /status that lists managed settings sources (for example managed-settings.json) present but not applied because a higher-precedence managed source is active

What's changed

• Cost estimates (/cost, status line, --max-budget-usd) now include the 1.1× US-only-inference premium for data-residency workspaces
• Added the one-time fullscreen renderer offer on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry and other previously excluded setups; new installs there now start in fullscreen
• Added /claude-api upgrade to migrate Python projects from anthropic 0.x to 1.x, and updated the skill's Python reference for 1.x (timeouts use anthropic.Timeout, not httpx.Timeout)
• Cloud sessions: plugins synced from claude.ai now show as name@synced, work with claude plugin enable/disable <name>@synced, and never override a same-named plugin you installed
• Alpine/musl builds: native image paste, clipboard, and audio-capture add-ons now load (musl-built binaries instead of glibc ones refused by the runtime)
• The usage-limit message shown when your monthly spend limit is already used up now also says when your session or weekly limit resets
• Fixed Bedrock streaming behind proxies that strip the response Content-Type header, which silently doubled billed API calls by re-running every turn non-streaming
