Claude Code

What's changed

• Added a keybindingFlavor setting: set it to "readline" to make Ctrl+W in the prompt delete back to the previous whitespace, as in Bash; the default ("classic") is unchanged
• Plugin marketplaces: headersHelper on a url marketplace or a catalog entry runs a command that mints HTTP headers (e.g. a short-lived token) for catalog and same-origin archive fetches
• A catalog entry's headersHelper runs only when you install or update that plugin, after its command is shown; claude plugin install/update ask [y/N] (or pass -y)
• Added claude self-hosted-runner --defer-shutdown-max-min <minutes>: on SIGTERM, keep serving attached sessions, park what is left after that many minutes, then exit
• Added claude self-hosted-runner --proxy-authorization-command / --proxy-authorization-file for egress proxies that require a freshly issued Proxy-Authorization header on every connection
• Fixed unbounded memory growth in long interactive sessions: subagent tool results are now released once they leave the recent display window
• Fixed custom, project, and plugin output styles drifting back to the default voice mid-session

What's changed

• Added ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_MODEL environment variable: sets the model new sessions start on, while a /model pick still overrides it and persists across restarts (unlike ANTHROPIC_MODEL)
• Added notify_when_idle to cross-session SendMessage: ask another Claude Code session on this machine to send one notice when it next goes idle — opt-in, one-shot, no polling (macOS and Linux)
• Sandbox: on macOS, wildcard read-deny rules (e.g. **/.env) now take precedence inside allowed read regions, cover matched directories' contents, and can't be bypassed by renaming the denied file
• Fixed clipboard copy, background housekeeping, background sessions, and local MCP logs breaking after the directory a session had switched into was removed (since 2.1.229)
• Fixed the fullscreen renderer failing permanently after a single failed start: it now falls back to the classic renderer instead of exiting on every subsequent launch
• Fixed the /model picker rendering taller than the terminal: it now shows only as many models as fit the window, with the rest reachable by scrolling

What's changed

• Added an optional spellcheck setting that underlines misspelled words in the prompt input as you type, using your installed aspell, hunspell, or ispell
• Fixed whole-prompt-cache invalidation when a language server disconnected or reconnected mid-session
• Fixed nested markdown list items misaligning at depth 3+ and added a hanging indent to wrapped list items in the terminal UI
• Fixed prompt input highlights (slash commands, keywords, mentions) appearing shifted by one or more characters in some multi-line prompts
• Fixed Shift+Tab inside the permission prompt's comment field approving the edit and granting session-wide edit permission instead of closing the field
• Fixed the Agent tool advertising a general-purpose default in sessions where that agent is unavailable: an omitted subagent_type there now gets a clear error listing the available agents
• Fixed notebook cell delete/replace approval dialogs silently omitting the existing cell content when the notebook or cell could not be read; the dialog now says why
• Fixed slash commands run while Claude is responding showing HTML entities instead of the actual characters

What's changed

• Added the optional CLAUDE_CODE_PROJECT_DIR_NAME environment variable: hosts that give each session its own config directory can choose a short name for the per-project transcript directory
• Added the selection:clear keybinding action, so a key can be bound to clear an in-app text selection; also works in the agents view
• Added a GitLab merge request badge to the footer and statusline: repos with a GitLab remote and an authenticated glab CLI show MR !N with draft/pending/green states
• Claude Code now continues your session automatically when a claude.ai usage limit resets; turn it off in /config ("Continue automatically at usage limit")
• Claude is now told to use your account email only to identify you, and not to send it to unrelated services unless you ask
• Security: remote file reads, session restore, CLAUDE.md includes, workflow scripts and file uploads now reject Windows NT-namespace (\??) paths, hardening the remaining pre-approval file accesses against the NTLM credential-leak vector
• Fixed auto mode in very long sessions repeatedly re-checking and denying sandboxed commands' network access after the conversation had been compacted

What's changed

• Added GitLab merge request URL support to the --worktree flag and the claude agents view (where MRs display as !N)
• Added an opt-in forward_user_identity apps gateway setting on Anthropic upstreams that sends the signed-in user's identity as headers, so a proxy behind the gateway can attribute spend per user
• Added opt-in memory cgroup support for Bash tool commands on Linux (CLAUDE_CODE_TOOL_MEMORY_LIMIT) so a runaway build can't stall the session
• Added CLAUDE_CODE_WEBFETCH_CACHE_TTL_MS environment variable to configure the WebFetch session URL cache TTL (default unchanged: 15 minutes)
• Fixed cloud sessions occasionally being marked as lost when the environment shut down while Claude was waiting on a permission prompt
• Fixed MCP v2 connections endlessly reopening the subscriptions/listen stream against servers that terminate long-held streams on a fixed timeout (e.g. serverless hosts)
• Fixed Notification hooks not firing for permission prompts when running under Claude Desktop or VS Code
• Fixed idle sessions on Linux sometimes keeping one CPU core at 100% when sandboxing is enabled

What's changed

• Subagent forking is now on by default: a subagent_type: "fork" subagent inherits the full conversation and prompt cache, and non-teammate agent spawns in interactive sessions now run in the background by default
• Type @ in the prompt to mention another Claude session by name; Claude then uses SendMessage to reach that session directly
• SendMessage now delivers to a bare name that exactly matches one live session, instead of asking to confirm with a ref first
• Interactive sessions on one machine now keep unique names: starting or renaming a session to a name another live session already uses gives it a name-word-word variant and tells you
• Added /config rows for "Dialog expiry" and "Messages from your other sessions" (cross-session inbound accept/hold/refuse)
• Added secret redaction for GitLab token families (glrt-, gloas-, glptt-, glagent-, glimt-, glsoat-, glcbt-, glft-, glffct-) and full redaction of routable glpat-/gldt- tokens; the glab CLI config store gets the same sandbox and credential-path protection as gh

What's changed

• Documented claude remote-control --continue for resuming the most recent Remote Control session
• Added server-supplied Claude Code hook support for self-hosted runner sessions, matching managed-environment behavior
• Added SSE keepalive pings to gateway streaming responses during long thinking pauses, preventing idle-timeout disconnects on Vertex and Bedrock upstreams
• Added plugin marketplace command sources: a local command (e.g. an IDE) prints the plugin directory, which is re-resolved each session and applied without a restart; mode: "link" uses it in place
• ListAgents now marks disconnected Remote Control sessions as offline and labels your cloud sessions as cloud
• Fixed long responses partly disappearing while streaming and being printed twice in the terminal
• Fixed a crash to the error screen (including on --resume of the affected session) when a tool call had a non-string glob, file_path, or command value
• Fixed a RangeError crash when a progress bar or markdown table rendered in a very narrow terminal window (could also crash claude --continue/--resume at startup)

What's changed

• Fixed interactive sessions that could stop redrawing entirely, while the process kept running, after a rare internal layout error
• Fixed git / Git Bash not being found on Windows when Claude Code is launched from a parent folder of the git installation
• Fixed /tui reverting the session to an earlier model when /model had been changed since the last response
• Fixed cross-session messaging sometimes starting without an inbox in the first session after install or upgrade
• Fixed Remote Control /resume while connected leaking the resumed conversation's title or history into the connected session
• Fixed claude self-hosted-runner sessions failing on every fresh runner when the checkout hook fails for a repository the session doesn't push to; that repository is now skipped with a warning
• Fixed self-hosted runners ending sessions in the gap between a background task finishing and the follow-up turn starting
• Fixed session cleanup deleting contents inside a project's memory folder
• Fixed background plugin-cache cleanup deleting a plugin's cache when its only version is a symlinked development checkout

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-*
