Claude code

https://claude.com/product/claude-code ↗

Anthropic's agentic coding tool for developers.

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.145

  • Added claude agents --json to list live Claude sessions as JSON for scripting (tmux-resurrect, status bars, session pickers)
  • Added agent_id and parent_agent_id attributes to claude_code.tool OTEL spans, and fixed trace parenting so background subagent spans nest under the dispatching Agent tool span
  • Status line JSON input now includes GitHub repo and PR information when detected
  • /plugin Discover and Browse screens now show a plugin’s commands, agents, skills, hooks, and MCP/LSP servers before installation
  • claude agents terminal tab title now shows the awaiting-input count so an alt-tabbed window tells you when an agent needs attention
  • Slash command and @-mention suggestion list now supports mouse hover and click in fullscreen mode
  • Stop and SubagentStop hook input now includes background_tasks and session_crons fields
  • Fixed a permission-prompt bypass where bare variable assignments to non-allowlisted environment variables in Bash commands were auto-approved
  • Fixed MCP prompt slash commands showing raw server validation errors when a required argument is omitted — the error now names the missing argument and shows expected usage
  • Fixed the spinner and elapsed-time display freezing until a keypress after the terminal was resized or refocused
  • Fixed the cross-project resume hint failing in default Windows PowerShell 5.1 — Windows now uses ; as the command separator
  • Fixed voice push-to-talk not working in the agent view’s reply pane

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.144

  • Added /resume support for background sessions — sessions started via claude --bg or agent view now appear alongside interactive ones, marked with bg
  • Added elapsed duration to background subagent completion notifications (e.g. “Agent completed · 3h 2m 5s”)
  • The /plugin browse and discover panes now show when a plugin was last updated
  • /model now changes the model for the current session only; press d in the model picker to set a default for new sessions
  • Renamed “extra usage” to “usage credits” across CLI copy; /extra-usage is now /usage-credits (old name still works)
  • Fixed startup hanging up to 75s when api.anthropic.com is unreachable (captive portal, firewall, VPN issues) — side-channel API calls now time out after 15s
  • Fixed garbled terminal output after a missed window-resize event (e.g. dragging a VS Code split-pane divider) — now self-heals on the next frame instead of requiring Ctrl+L
  • Fixed progressive terminal display corruption (stale/garbled glyphs) that could appear in very long sessions and only cleared on terminal resize or restart
  • Reduced terminal rendering glitches in VS Code by reducing spinner animation color count
  • Fixed macOS background sessions crashing with “exit 1 before init” when the project lives under a Full Disk Access-protected folder (regression in 2.1.143)
  • Fixed an unrecoverable conversation when reading a file whose image extension doesn’t match its contents (e.g. HTML saved as .png) — now falls back to text

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.143

  • Added plugin dependency enforcement: claude plugin disable now refuses when another enabled plugin depends on the target (with a copy-pasteable disable-chain hint), and claude plugin enable force-enables transitive dependencies
  • Added projected context cost (per-turn and per-invocation token estimates) to the /plugin marketplace browse pane
  • Added worktree.bgIsolation: "none" setting to let background sessions edit the working copy directly without EnterWorktree, for repos where worktrees are impractical
  • PowerShell tool now passes -ExecutionPolicy Bypass. Opt out with CLAUDE_CODE_POWERSHELL_RESPECT_EXECUTION_POLICY=1
  • Background sessions now preserve the model and effort level you set after waking from idle
  • Shift+Tab in attached agent sessions now includes auto mode in the cycle
  • Fixed a corrupt .credentials.json with a non-array scopes value hanging the CLI on startup or silently aborting OAuth token refresh
  • Fixed right-click paste in claude agents on Windows Terminal and WSL
  • Fixed stop hooks that block repeatedly looping forever — the turn now ends with a warning after 8 consecutive blocks (override via CLAUDE_CODE_STOP_HOOK_BLOCK_CAP)
  • Fixed Esc/Ctrl+C not cancelling a pending /loop wakeup while Claude is idle between iterations
  • Fixed /goal evaluator firing while background shells or delegated subagents are still running

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.142

  • Added new claude agents flags: --add-dir, --settings, --mcp-config, --plugin-dir, --permission-mode, --model, --effort, and --dangerously-skip-permissions to configure dispatched background sessions
  • Fast mode now uses Opus 4.7 by default (previously Opus 4.6). Set CLAUDE_CODE_OPUS_4_6_FAST_MODE_OVERRIDE=1 to pin fast mode to Opus 4.6
  • Plugins with a root-level SKILL.md and no skills/ subdirectory are now surfaced as a skill
  • The /plugin details pane and claude plugin details now show LSP servers a plugin provides
  • /web-setup warns before replacing an existing GitHub App connection
  • Fixed MCP_TOOL_TIMEOUT not raising the per-request fetch timeout for remote HTTP and SSE MCP servers, which capped tool calls at 60 seconds regardless of the configured value
  • Fixed background sessions not recognizing pre-existing git worktrees, blocking Edit while EnterWorktree refused to create a duplicate
  • Fixed background sessions disappearing and daemon reconnect failing after macOS sleep/wake — the daemon now detects clock jumps instead of treating them as elapsed idle time
  • Fixed daemon not exiting cleanly after the binary is upgraded (e.g. brew upgrade), causing dispatched agents to crash-loop on the deleted path
  • Fixed background agents crash-looping when the Claude-in-Chrome extension is connected without a shared tab

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.141

  • Added terminalSequence field to hook JSON output so hooks can emit desktop notifications, window titles, and bells without a controlling terminal
  • Added CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS to clone GitHub plugin sources over HTTPS instead of SSH, for environments without a GitHub SSH key
  • Added ANTHROPIC_WORKSPACE_ID environment variable for workload identity federation — scopes the minted token to a specific workspace when the federation rule covers more than one
  • Added claude agents --cwd <path> to scope the session list to a directory
  • /feedback can now include recent sessions (last 24 hours or 7 days) for issues spanning more than the current session
  • Rewind menu: added “Summarize up to here” to compress earlier context while keeping recent turns intact
  • Auto mode permission dialog now explains when a permissions.ask rule caused the prompt
  • Restored the “view diff in your IDE” option on file-edit permission prompts when an IDE is connected
  • Background agents launched via /bg or ←← now preserve the current permission mode instead of reverting to default
  • claude agents: agents that finish work but leave a background shell running now move to Completed instead of staying under Working
  • Improved spinner feedback during long thinking periods — the spinner now warms to amber after 10 seconds to signal Claude is still working

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.140

  • Improved Agent tool subagent_type matching to accept case- and separator-insensitive values (e.g. "Code Reviewer" resolves to code-reviewer)
  • Updated agent color palette
  • Fixed /goal silently hanging when disableAllHooks or allowManagedHooksOnly is set — now shows a clear message instead of an indicator that never resolves
  • Fixed a regression in settings hot-reload where symlinked settings files caused misattributed change events and spurious ConfigChange hooks
  • Fixed claude --bg failing with “connection dropped mid-request” when the background service was about to idle-exit
  • Fixed background service startup failing on machines with enterprise endpoint security by allowing more time
  • Fixed remote managed settings not retrying on 401 — now retries once with a force-refreshed token
  • Fixed managed extraKnownMarketplaces auto-update policy not being persisted to known_marketplaces.json
  • Fixed /loop scheduling redundant wakeups to poll for background tasks that already notify on completion
  • Fixed a recurring event-loop stall on Windows when a missing executable (e.g. gh) triggered synchronous where.exe re-spawns on every check
  • Fixed Read tool calls failing validation when offset is passed as a whitespace-padded or +-prefixed string
  • Fixed native terminal cursor not staying at the input caret when the terminal loses focus

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.139

  • Added agent view (Research Preview): a single list of every Claude Code session — running, blocked on you, or done. Run claude agents to get started. See https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-view
  • Added /goal command: set a completion condition and Claude keeps working across turns until it’s met. Works in interactive, -p, and Remote Control. Shows live elapsed/turns/tokens as an overlay panel
  • Added /scroll-speed command to tune mouse wheel scroll speed with a live preview
  • Added claude plugin details <name> to show a plugin’s component inventory and projected per-session token cost
  • Added transcript view navigation: ? for keyboard shortcuts, {/} to jump between user prompts, v to toggle shortcut panel
  • Added hook args: string[] field (exec form) that spawns the command directly without a shell, so path placeholders never need quoting
  • Added hook continueOnBlock config option for PostToolUse — set to true to feed the hook’s rejection reason back to Claude and continue the turn
  • MCP stdio servers now receive CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR in their environment, matching hooks. Plugin configs can reference ${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR} in commands
  • Compaction prompt now asks the model to preserve sensitive user instructions
  • /mcp Reconnect now picks up .mcp.json edits without a restart, and shows the HTTP status and URL when reconnecting fails
  • /context all per-skill token estimates now account for the model’s tokenizer and show rounded values

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.136

  • Added CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FEEDBACK_SURVEY_FOR_OTEL to re-enable the session quality survey for enterprises capturing responses through OpenTelemetry
  • Added settings.autoMode.hard_deny for auto mode classifier rules that block unconditionally regardless of user intent or allow exceptions
  • Fixed MCP servers configured in .mcp.json, plugins, and claude.ai connectors silently disappearing after /clear in the VS Code extension, JetBrains plugin, and Agent SDK
  • Fixed a rare login loop where a concurrent credential write could overwrite a freshly-rotated OAuth token and force re-login
  • Fixed MCP OAuth refresh tokens being lost when multiple servers refresh concurrently — users with several remote MCP servers should no longer need daily re-authentication
  • Fixed an API error (400) when extended thinking emitted a redacted thinking block after a tool call
  • Fixed --resume / --continue not finding sessions when the project path contains underscores
  • Fixed plan mode not blocking file writes when a matching Edit(...) allow rule exists
  • WSL2: image paste from Windows clipboard now works via a PowerShell fallback when xclip/wl-paste cannot read image data
  • Fixed plugin Stop/UserPromptSubmit hooks failing when cache cleanup deletes a version still in use by a running session

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.133

  • Added worktree.baseRef setting (fresh | head) to choose whether --worktree, EnterWorktree, and agent-isolation worktrees branch from origin/<default> or local HEAD. Note: the default fresh changes EnterWorktree‘s base back to origin/<default> (it has been local HEAD since 2.1.128) — set worktree.baseRef: "head" to keep unpushed commits in new worktrees

  • Added sandbox.bwrapPath and sandbox.socatPath managed settings (Linux/WSL) to specify custom bubblewrap and socat binary locations

  • Added parentSettingsBehavior admin-tier key ('first-wins' | 'merge') to let admins opt SDK managedSettings (parent tier) into the policy merge

  • Hooks now receive the active effort level via the effort.level JSON input field and the $CLAUDE_EFFORT environment variable, and Bash tool commands can read $CLAUDE_EFFORT
  • Improved focus mode behavior
  • Improved memory usage by releasing warm-spare background workers under memory pressure
  • Fixed parallel sessions all dead-ending at 401 after a refresh-token race wiped shared credentials
  • Fixed Edit/Write allow rules scoped to a drive root (C:\) or POSIX / matching incorrectly and always prompting
  • Fixed an unhandled rejection (ECOMPROMISED) when a history or session-log file lock is compromised by clock skew or slow disk
  • Fixed pressing Esc during conversation compaction showing a spurious “Error compacting conversation” notification

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.132

  • Added CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID environment variable to the Bash tool subprocess environment, matching the session_id passed to hooks
  • Added CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_ALTERNATE_SCREEN=1 env var to opt out of the fullscreen alternate-screen renderer and keep the conversation in the terminal’s native scrollback
  • Added a “Pasting…” footer hint while a Ctrl+V image paste is being read from the clipboard
  • Fixed external SIGINT (e.g. IDE stop button, kill -INT) not running graceful shutdown — terminal modes are now restored and the --resume hint is printed instead of an abrupt exit
  • Fixed an uncaught exception when the terminal is closed or SSH disconnects mid-session under the native build
  • Fixed --resume failing with no low surrogate in string when a tool error truncation split an emoji; pre-corrupted sessions are sanitized on load
  • Fixed --permission-mode flag being ignored when resuming a plan-mode session with -p --continue/--resume, and plan mode not being re-applied after ExitPlanMode within the same session
  • Fixed fullscreen mode showing a blank screen after laptop sleep/wake or Ctrl+Z/fg until the next keystroke or stream output
  • Fixed cursor landing mid-grapheme on Ctrl+E/A/K/U/arrow keys when an Indic conjunct or ZWJ emoji wraps across lines
  • Fixed vim operators corrupting text containing decomposed (NFD) accented characters
  • Fixed pasting text starting with / silently swallowing the input or triggering an unknown-command reply

  • Fixed Mantle endpoint authentication failing with missing x-api-key header
Original source ↗

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.129

  • Added --plugin-url <url> flag to fetch a plugin .zip archive from a URL for the current session
  • Added CLAUDE_CODE_FORCE_SYNC_OUTPUT=1 env var to force-enable synchronized output on terminals that auto-detection misses (e.g. Emacs eat)
  • Added CLAUDE_CODE_PACKAGE_MANAGER_AUTO_UPDATE: when set on Homebrew or WinGet installations, Claude Code runs the upgrade command in the background and prompts to restart
  • Plugin manifests: themes and monitors should now be declared under "experimental": { ... }. Top-level declarations still work but claude plugin validate will warn
  • Gateway /v1/models discovery for the /model picker is now opt-in via CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_GATEWAY_MODEL_DISCOVERY=1 (was automatic in 2.1.126–2.1.128)
  • Ctrl+R history picker now defaults to searching all prompts across all projects, matching pre-2.1.124 behavior. Press Ctrl+S to narrow to the current project or session
  • Third-party deployments (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, or ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL gateway) no longer see spinner tips pointing at first-party Anthropic surfaces
  • skillOverrides setting now works: off hides from model and /, user-invocable-only hides from model only, name-only collapses description
  • The claude_code.pull_request.count OTel metric now counts PRs/MRs created via MCP tools, not just shell commands
  • Policy refusal error messages now include the API Request ID for easier support debugging

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.128

  • Bare /color (no args) now picks a random session color
  • /mcp now shows the tool count for connected servers and flags servers that connected with 0 tools
  • --plugin-dir now accepts .zip plugin archives in addition to directories
  • --channels now works with console (API key) authentication — console orgs with managed settings must set channelsEnabled: true to enable
  • Updated /model picker: collapsed duplicate Opus 4.7 entries, and current Opus now shows as “Opus” instead of “Opus 4.7”
  • Subprocesses (Bash, hooks, MCP, LSP) no longer inherit OTEL_* environment variables, so OTEL-instrumented apps run via the Bash tool no longer pick up the CLI’s own OTLP endpoint
  • MCP: workspace is now a reserved server name — existing servers with that name will be skipped with a warning
  • Reconnecting MCP servers no longer flood the conversation with full tool-name lists on every reconnect — re-announced tools are summarized by server prefix
  • SDK hosts now receive a persistent localSettings suggestion for Bash permission prompts, so “Always allow” writes to .claude/settings.local.json
  • EnterWorktree now creates the new branch from local HEAD as documented, instead of origin/<default-branch> — unpushed commits are no longer dropped
  • Auto mode: when the classifier can’t evaluate an action, the error now includes a hint (retry, /compact, or run with --debug)
  • Fixed focus mode briefly dimming the previous response when submitting a new prompt

2.1.126

  • The /model picker now lists models from your gateway’s /v1/models endpoint when ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL points at an Anthropic-compatible gateway
    • Added claude project purge [path] to delete all Claude Code state for a project (transcripts, tasks, file history, config entry) — supports --dry-run, -y/--yes, -i/--interactive, and --all
  • --dangerously-skip-permissions now bypasses prompts for writes to .claude/, .git/, .vscode/, shell config files, and other previously-protected paths (catastrophic removal commands still prompt as a safety net)
  • claude auth login now accepts the OAuth code pasted into the terminal when the browser callback can’t reach localhost (WSL2, SSH, containers)
  • claude_code.skill_activated OpenTelemetry event now fires for user-typed slash commands and carries a new invocation_trigger attribute ("user-slash", "claude-proactive", or "nested-skill")
  • Auto mode: the spinner now turns red when a permission check stalls, instead of looking like the tool is running
  • Host-managed deployments (CLAUDE_CODE_PROVIDER_MANAGED_BY_HOST) no longer auto-disable analytics on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry
  • Windows: PowerShell 7 installed via the Microsoft Store, MSI without PATH, or .NET global tool is now detected
  • Windows: when the PowerShell tool is enabled, Claude now treats PowerShell as the primary shell instead of defaulting to Bash

  • Added ANTHROPIC_BEDROCK_SERVICE_TIER environment variable to select a Bedrock service tier (default, flex, or priority), sent as the X-Amzn-Bedrock-Service-Tier header
  • Pasting a PR URL into the /resume search box now finds the session that created that PR (GitHub, GitHub Enterprise, GitLab, and Bitbucket)
  • /mcp now shows claude.ai connectors hidden by a manually-added server with the same URL, with a hint to remove the duplicate
  • Clarified the /mcp message shown when an MCP server is still unauthorized after the browser sign-in flow
  • OpenTelemetry: numeric attributes on api_request/api_error log events are now emitted as numbers, not strings
  • OpenTelemetry: added claude_code.at_mention log event for @-mention resolution
  • Fixed /branch producing forks that fail with “tool_use ids were found without tool_result blocks” when the source session contained entries from rewound timelines
  • Fixed /model not showing the Effort option for Bedrock application inference profile ARNs, and those ARNs not receiving output_config.effort
  • Fixed Vertex AI / Bedrock returning invalid_request_error: output_config: Extra inputs are not permitted on session-title generation and other structured-output queries
  • Fixed Vertex AI count_tokens endpoint returning 400 errors for users behind proxy gateways
  • Fixed spinnerTipsOverride.excludeDefault not suppressing the time-based spinner tips

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.121

  • Added alwaysLoad option to MCP server config — when true, all tools from that server skip tool-search deferral and are always available
  • Added claude plugin prune to remove orphaned auto-installed plugin dependencies; plugin uninstall --prune cascades
  • Added a type-to-filter search box to /skills so you can find a skill in long lists without scrolling
  • PostToolUse hooks can now replace tool output for all tools via hookSpecificOutput.updatedToolOutput (previously MCP-only)
  • Fullscreen mode: typing into the prompt no longer jumps scroll back to the bottom after you’ve scrolled up to read earlier output

  • Clicking any line of a long URL that wraps across rows in fullscreen mode now opens the full URL
  • SDK and claude -p: CLAUDE_CODE_FORK_SUBAGENT=1 now works in non-interactive sessions
  • --dangerously-skip-permissions no longer prompts for writes to .claude/skills/, .claude/agents/, and .claude/commands/
  • /terminal-setup now enables iTerm2’s “Applications in terminal may access clipboard” setting so /copy works, including from tmux
  • MCP servers that hit a transient error during startup now auto-retry up to 3 times instead of staying disconnected
  • The terminal tab session title is now generated in your configured language setting

Update Jun 4, 2026 tracked by Updatify

2.1.120

  • Windows: Git for Windows (Git Bash) is no longer required — when absent, Claude Code uses PowerShell as the shell tool
  • Added claude ultrareview [target] subcommand to run /ultrareview non-interactively from CI or scripts — prints findings to stdout (--json for raw output) and exits 0 on completion or 1 on failure
  • Skills can now reference the current effort level with ${CLAUDE_EFFORT} in their content
  • Set AI_AGENT environment variable for subprocesses so gh can attribute traffic to Claude Code
  • Spinner tips that recommend installing the desktop app or creating skills/agents are now hidden when you already have them

  • Hooks can now invoke MCP tools directly via type: "mcp_tool"
  • Added DISABLE_UPDATES env var to completely block all update paths including manual claude update — stricter than DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER
  • WSL on Windows can now inherit Windows-side managed settings via the wslInheritsWindowsSettings policy key

2.1.116

  • /resume on large sessions is significantly faster (up to 67% on 40MB+ sessions) and handles sessions with many dead-fork entries more efficiently
  • Faster MCP startup when multiple stdio servers are configured; resources/templates/list is now deferred to first @-mention
  • Smoother fullscreen scrolling in VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf terminals — /terminal-setup now configures the editor’s scroll sensitivity
  • Thinking spinner now shows progress inline (“still thinking”, “thinking more”, “almost done thinking”), replacing the separate hint row
  • /config search now matches option values (e.g. searching “vim” finds the Editor mode setting)
