What's changed

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 Fixed SessionEnd hooks sometimes not running when you exit while a background command is still running Fixed claude --help naming a removed tool in its description of --restricted Fixed claude agents not refreshing any pull request's status when the data for one of them came back incomplete Fixed Claude being told a background agent was lost, not resumable, after a cloud session's container was replaced, when the agent had already been resumed once Fixed subagents you had typed messages to disappearing from /tasks shortly after finishing, leaving no way back to the conversation Fixed a completed parent agent dropping off the breadcrumb (its child shown re-rooted at top level) while you were viewing the child Fixed the agents view taking a typed word such as "up", "down" or "escape" for that key when input arrived in a burst, which could move the peek mid-reply or clear a draft Fixed automatic tool search (ENABLE_TOOL_SEARCH=auto) turning off part-way through a conversation, for example while MCP servers reconnect after a resume Fixed a login refused by forceLoginOrgUUID leaving the refused organization's token stored, or live after /login Fixed the diff view in Claude Desktop and Remote Control sessions not noticing a conflicted cherry-pick or revert in reftable repositories Fixed the Artifact tool's verbose and ctrl+o line reading Artifact("(unprintable path)") while a call's input arrives; its row now shows "Waiting…" and "Running…" as Bash's does Fixed the first transcript entry written after resuming a session being lost when a crash had cut the transcript's last line short Fixed /branch dropping messages, and claude purge skipping subfolder projects, when they contain a Unicode line or paragraph separator (U+2028, U+2029) Fixed plugin WorktreeCreate and WorktreeRemove hooks not running when Claude Code starts with --worktree (not yet with --tmux) Fixed OpenTelemetry tool_result events missing git_commit_id after git commit -q in repositories using reftable ref storage Fixed a prompt that a mod's prompt.submit hook rewrote or dropped still being recorded as typed in the OpenTelemetry user_prompt event and interaction span, and in session title requests Fixed a note meant for Claude about mod hot-reloading appearing in the transcript as if you had typed it Fixed agent hooks ignoring their model: aliases like haiku now resolve, a subagent's model no longer overrides it, and an unavailable model falls back to the caller's instead of allowing the action Fixed --worktree sessions sometimes starting from the wrong commit when a tag or branch was named like a commit ID, and their starting git status naming a branch other than the new worktree's Fixed the branch showing as ".invalid" and --worktree failing to reopen a worktree in repositories using git's reftable ref storage Fixed Claude naming files in the session scratchpad by a bare filename or relative path instead of their full path Fixed claude remote-control servers giving up on renewing their connection after a brief sign-in error, such as a locked keychain; they now retry, and warn when you need to run claude /login Fixed --worktree failing in a worktree of a bare repository when origin's default branch can't be fetched; the fallback base is now the current checkout's HEAD, not the main repository's Fixed starting Claude Code in a VS Code, Cursor or Devin Desktop integrated terminal launching the editor's command-line tool twice to check for the extension; it now launches it once Fixed a mod's prompt.edit hook not being raised for a newline entered with the chat:newline keybinding (Ctrl+J, or a rebound Enter) Fixed a conversation failing on every turn with a 400 error when the API rejected an MCP tool's input schema; Claude Code now sends that tool without parameters for the rest of the conversation Fixed resuming a headless or Agent SDK session losing the recent messages a compaction had kept, when the compaction followed a reply cut at the output token limit (compactions from this version on) Fixed Claude not being told about an MCP server's tools and instructions until its next tool call, when the server finished connecting after a compaction Fixed Remote Control sessions being marked stopped while still running, on a computer serving several sessions at once Fixed resuming a headless or Agent SDK session losing its compaction summary or bringing back pre-compaction history, when the compaction followed a retried or unfinished reply in the same turn Fixed Claude polling a background command's output file or sleeping while it runs Fixed feature flags and staged rollouts staying stale behind a TLS-inspecting proxy whose certificate is trusted only through the OS certificate store Fixed claude daemon stop --any printing "stopped" while a stuck background service kept running: it now waits, force-kills the service, and says so with exit 1 if it is still there Fixed claude daemon stop exiting with no output, and leaving sessions listed as running, when telemetry is turned off Fixed Write, Edit and NotebookEdit in Cowork cloud sessions reporting success for a path on your own computer, where the file never arrived Fixed Claude searching for deferred tools already loaded earlier in the conversation when a session resumes a history that never listed them Fixed secondary (dim) text looking the same as normal text under the dark ANSI theme and on 16-color terminals Fixed cloud sessions hanging 5 minutes per turn when the organization's policy can't be read; the turn now ends promptly and says why Fixed a cloud session sometimes running an already answered message a second time after the session restarted during a long reply Self-hosted runner: Fixed the runner and orchestrator freezing (no polls, /healthz or SIGTERM shutdown) while nobody reads their output; logs keep the latest 256 KiB and count drops (not on Windows) Improved WebFetch in Cowork cloud sessions to tell Claude that a page failed moments ago instead of fetching it again Improved mod sharing in the built-in plugin-authoring skill: Claude scans a mod's files for keys before opening them, and asks before scanning a folder outside the project Improved the note Claude 3 models get about an @-mentioned PDF, so they less often answer without reading it Improved artifact updates: Claude now applies a small change and republishes the artifact in one call, and makes larger edits and republishes within a single response Changed CLAUDE_CODE_PROVIDER_MANAGED_BY_HOST sessions to ignore CA-bundle, tool-proxy, git TLS and git config variables like SSL_CERT_FILE in settings; under Claude Desktop, only in project settings Changed exit to force-kill background commands still running 1.5 seconds after being asked to stop; in fullscreen mode they could previously be left running Changed Claude Desktop's Code tab to apply managed settings when forceLoginGatewayUrl names an Anthropic-operated gateway that serves the session's hostname; that gateway must be reachable at start Changed claude gateway to stop at start, naming the key, on a desktop: policy key that Claude Desktop cannot use from a gateway, where it earlier started with a warning Changed large requests to api.anthropic.com to use gzip compression even when telemetry is disabled; set CLAUDE_CODE_GZIP_REQUEST_BODIES=0 to turn it off Changed the claude-api skill to leave Managed Agents sessions in place unless you ask to archive or delete them Changed background sessions to resume a carried workflow through the Workflow tool's approval instead of running it from the handoff file Changed local session transcripts to also record each API request's system prompt, tools and parameters, so a transcript you choose to share can reproduce a request exactly Changed the /sandbox mode options to read "Sandbox commands" instead of "Sandbox BashTool" Changed PermissionRequest hooks in Cowork cloud sessions: a setMode update in a hook's allow is now ignored; the rest of the approval still applies Changed hooks: updatedInput from PreToolUse and PermissionRequest hooks is now validated like Claude's own input: unknown keys are dropped, and input the tool rejects denies the call 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 [VSCode] Added the claudeCode.attachSelection setting to stop text selected in the editor from being added to your messages [VSCode] Fixed fast mode staying on after usage credits ran out, which made each request be refused and re-sent; it now turns off until you turn it back on, with an error notice [VSCode] Fixed the Thinking toggle switching to Off on models that always think; the toggle is no longer shown for those models [VSCode] Fixed "Edit prompt" on a flagged message opening the file or command menu over the restored prompt; Enter now sends it as written [VSCode] Fixed Shift+dragging a file onto the prompt on Windows inserting an unreadable /c:/… path instead of a mention relative to the working directory [VSCode] Fixed changes to VS Code's chat font size settings needing a window reload or being undone by a theme change; diffs and the plan preview now follow them too [VSCode] Fixed "Resume session" and tabs restored after a reload opening an empty new conversation instead of one that had moved into a git worktree [VSCode] Fixed ↑ then Enter on a recalled slash command running it without its arguments; the command and file menus no longer open over a recalled prompt until you edit it [VSCode] Fixed Shift+dragging a file from the Explorer or an editor tab onto the prompt inserting nothing in WSL, SSH and Dev Container windows [VSCode] Fixed Ctrl+Alt+F toggling Focus view instead of opening Find in the Explorer, other tree views, or the Debug Console on Windows and Linux [VSCode] Fixed the check for sessions open in other windows or terminals creating extra processes on macOS: it now starts /bin/ps directly instead of searching PATH for ps on every check [VSCode] Windows: Fixed a conversation showing "still open somewhere else" after a crash or power loss, when Windows had since restarted and given the old process ID to another program [Cloud sessions] Fixed "Allow for this task" missing from Cowork's approval prompts for connector tools where an organization turns off "Always allow" (regression in 2.1.292) [Cloud sessions] Fixed most commands in the / menu losing their descriptions in cloud sessions once you sent a second message [Remote Control] Fixed the diff view in Remote Control sessions on claude.ai and the desktop app showing deleted and renamed files as modified; requires Claude Code v2.1.296 or later on your machine [Claude Tag] Added support for Slack Connect channels: an Owner or Claude Tag admin can let Claude in Slack answer in channels shared with another organization; it's off by default [Claude Tag] Added a private Allow once / Deny card in Slack threads for connector actions that need your approval, so Claude asks instead of refusing; others only see that it's waiting on you [Claude Tag] Added support for Slack voice clips in Claude in Slack: Claude reads Slack's transcript of a clip when Slack has one [Claude Tag] Fixed Claude in Slack not answering another app that tags it in a thread under a message Claude itself posted to the channel [Claude Tag] Changed access bundles an admin attached to a Slack channel to keep applying once the channel becomes a Slack Connect channel, with no need to remove and re-attach them [Code Review] Fixed Code Review ignoring @claude review comments from people with write access whose GitHub organization membership is private; their comments now start a review [Code Review] Fixed Code Review's "paused for this repository" comment sending admins to Code Review settings; it now says who can fix it and links the Git providers page
