Release Notes

anthropics/claude-code (npm:@​anthropic-ai/claude-code)

v2.1.74

Compare Source

• Added actionable suggestions to /context command — identifies context-heavy tools, memory bloat, and capacity warnings with specific optimization tips
• Added autoMemoryDirectory setting to configure a custom directory for auto-memory storage
• Fixed memory leak where streaming API response buffers were not released when the generator was terminated early, causing unbounded RSS growth on the Node.js/npm code path
• Fixed managed policy ask rules being bypassed by user allow rules or skill allowed-tools
• Fixed full model IDs (e.g., claude-opus-4-5) being silently ignored in agent frontmatter model: field and --agents JSON config — agents now accept the same model values as --model
• Fixed MCP OAuth authentication hanging when the callback port is already in use
• Fixed MCP OAuth refresh never prompting for re-auth after the refresh token expires, for OAuth servers that return errors with HTTP 200 (e.g. Slack)
• Fixed voice mode silently failing on the macOS native binary for users whose terminal had never been granted microphone permission — the binary now includes the audio-input entitlement so macOS prompts correctly
• Fixed SessionEnd hooks being killed after 1.5 s on exit regardless of hook.timeout — now configurable via CLAUDE_CODE_SESSIONEND_HOOKS_TIMEOUT_MS
• Fixed /plugin install failing inside the REPL for marketplace plugins with local sources
• Fixed marketplace update not syncing git submodules — plugin sources in submodules no longer break after update
• Fixed unknown slash commands with arguments silently dropping input — now shows your input as a warning
• Fixed Hebrew, Arabic, and other RTL text not rendering correctly in Windows Terminal, conhost, and VS Code integrated terminal
• Fixed LSP servers not working on Windows due to malformed file URIs
• Changed --plugin-dir so local dev copies now override installed marketplace plugins with the same name (unless that plugin is force-enabled by managed settings)
• [VSCode] Fixed delete button not working for Untitled sessions
• [VSCode] Improved scroll wheel responsiveness in the integrated terminal with terminal-aware acceleration

v2.1.73

Compare Source

• Added modelOverrides setting to map model picker entries to custom provider model IDs (e.g. Bedrock inference profile ARNs)
• Added actionable guidance when OAuth login or connectivity checks fail due to SSL certificate errors (corporate proxies, NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS)
• Fixed freezes and 100% CPU loops triggered by permission prompts for complex bash commands
• Fixed a deadlock that could freeze Claude Code when many skill files changed at once (e.g. during git pull in a repo with a large .claude/skills/ directory)
• Fixed Bash tool output being lost when running multiple Claude Code sessions in the same project directory
• Fixed subagents with model: opus/sonnet/haiku being silently downgraded to older model versions on Bedrock, Vertex, and Microsoft Foundry
• Fixed background bash processes spawned by subagents not being cleaned up when the agent exits
• Fixed /resume showing the current session in the picker
• Fixed /ide crashing with onInstall is not defined when auto-installing the extension
• Fixed /loop not being available on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry and when telemetry was disabled
• Fixed SessionStart hooks firing twice when resuming a session via --resume or --continue
• Fixed JSON-output hooks injecting no-op system-reminder messages into the model's context on every turn
• Fixed voice mode session corruption when a slow connection overlaps a new recording
• Fixed Linux sandbox failing to start with "ripgrep (rg) not found" on native builds
• Fixed Linux native modules not loading on Amazon Linux 2 and other glibc 2.26 systems
• Fixed "media_type: Field required" API error when receiving images via Remote Control
• Fixed /heapdump failing on Windows with EEXIST error when the Desktop folder already exists
• Improved Up arrow after interrupting Claude — now restores the interrupted prompt and rewinds the conversation in one step
• Improved IDE detection speed at startup
• Improved clipboard image pasting performance on macOS
• Improved /effort to work while Claude is responding, matching /model behavior
• Improved voice mode to automatically retry transient connection failures during rapid push-to-talk re-press
• Improved the Remote Control spawn mode selection prompt with better context
• Changed default Opus model on Bedrock, Vertex, and Microsoft Foundry to Opus 4.6 (was Opus 4.1)
• Deprecated /output-style command — use /config instead. Output style is now fixed at session start for better prompt caching
• VSCode: Fixed HTTP 400 errors for users behind proxies or on Bedrock/Vertex with Claude 4.5 models

v2.1.72

Compare Source

• Fixed tool search to activate even with ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL as long as ENABLE_TOOL_SEARCH is set.
• Added w key in /copy to write the focused selection directly to a file, bypassing the clipboard (useful over SSH)
• Added optional description argument to /plan (e.g., /plan fix the auth bug) that enters plan mode and immediately starts
• Added ExitWorktree tool to leave an EnterWorktree session
• Added CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_CRON environment variable to immediately stop scheduled cron jobs mid-session
• Added lsof, pgrep, tput, ss, fd, and fdfind to the bash auto-approval allowlist, reducing permission prompts for common read-only operations
• Restored the model parameter on the Agent tool for per-invocation model overrides
• Simplified effort levels to low/medium/high (removed max) with new symbols (○ ◐ ●) and a brief notification instead of a persistent icon. Use /effort auto to reset to default
• Improved /config — Escape now cancels changes, Enter saves and closes, Space toggles settings
• Improved up-arrow history to show current session's messages first when running multiple concurrent sessions
• Improved voice input transcription accuracy for repo names and common dev terms (regex, OAuth, JSON)
• Improved bash command parsing by switching to a native module — faster initialization and no memory leak
• Reduced bundle size by ~510 KB
• Changed CLAUDE.md HTML comments (<!-- ... -->) to be hidden from Claude when auto-injected. Comments remain visible when read with the Read tool
• Fixed slow exits when background tasks or hooks were slow to respond
• Fixed agent task progress stuck on "Initializing…"
• Fixed skill hooks firing twice per event when a hooks-enabled skill is invoked by the model
• Fixed several voice mode issues: occasional input lag, false "No speech detected" errors after releasing push-to-talk, and stale transcripts re-filling the prompt after submission
• Fixed --continue not resuming from the most recent point after --compact
• Fixed bash security parsing edge cases
• Added support for marketplace git URLs without .git suffix (Azure DevOps, AWS CodeCommit)
• Improved marketplace clone failure messages to show diagnostic info even when git produces no stderr
• Fixed several plugin issues: installation failing on Windows with EEXIST error in OneDrive folders, marketplace blocking user-scope installs when a project-scope install exists, CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_CACHE_DIR creating literal ~ directories, and plugin.json with marketplace-only fields failing to load
• Fixed feedback survey appearing too frequently in long sessions
• Fixed --effort CLI flag being reset by unrelated settings writes on startup
• Fixed backgrounded Ctrl+B queries losing their transcript or corrupting the new conversation after /clear
• Fixed /clear killing background agent/bash tasks — only foreground tasks are now cleared
• Fixed worktree isolation issues: Task tool resume not restoring cwd, and background task notifications missing worktreePath and worktreeBranch
• Fixed /model not displaying results when run while Claude is working
• Fixed digit keys selecting menu options instead of typing in plan mode permission prompt's text input
• Fixed sandbox permission issues: certain file write operations incorrectly allowed without prompting, and output redirections to allowlisted directories (like /tmp/claude/) prompting unnecessarily
• Improved CPU utilization in long sessions
• Fixed prompt cache invalidation in SDK query() calls, reducing input token costs up to 12x
• Fixed Escape key becoming unresponsive after cancelling a query
• Fixed double Ctrl+C not exiting when background agents or tasks are running
• Fixed team agents to inherit the leader's model
• Fixed "Always Allow" saving permission rules that never match again
• Fixed several hooks issues: transcript_path pointing to the wrong directory for resumed/forked sessions, agent prompt being silently deleted from settings.json on every settings write, PostToolUse block reason displaying twice, async hooks not receiving stdin with bash read -r, and validation error message showing an example that fails validation
• Fixed session crashes in Desktop/SDK when Read returned files containing U+2028/U+2029 characters
• Fixed terminal title being cleared on exit even when CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_TERMINAL_TITLE was set
• Fixed several permission rule matching issues: wildcard rules not matching commands with heredocs, embedded newlines, or no arguments; sandbox.excludedCommands failing with env var prefixes; "always allow" suggesting overly broad prefixes for nested CLI tools; and deny rules not applying to all command forms
• Fixed oversized and truncated images from Bash data-URL output

• Fixed intermittent "expected boolean, received string" validation errors on Edit, Bash, and Grep tool inputs
• Fixed multi-line session titles when forking from a conversation whose first message contained newlines
• Fixed queued messages not showing attached images, and images being lost when pressing ↑ to edit a queued message
• Fixed parallel tool calls where a failed Read/WebFetch/Glob would cancel its siblings — only Bash errors now cascade
• VSCode: Fixed scroll speed in integrated terminals not matching native terminals
• VSCode: Fixed Shift+Enter submitting input instead of inserting a newline for users with older keybindings
• VSCode: Added effort level indicator on the input border
• VSCode: Added vscode://anthropic.claude-code/open URI handler to open a new Claude Code tab programmatically, with optional prompt and session query parameters

v2.1.71

Compare Source

• Added /loop command to run a prompt or slash command on a recurring interval (e.g. /loop 5m check the deploy)
• Added cron scheduling tools for recurring prompts within a session
• Added voice:pushToTalk keybinding to make the voice activation key rebindable in keybindings.json (default: space) — modifier+letter combos like meta+k have zero typing interference
• Added fmt, comm, cmp, numfmt, expr, test, printf, getconf, seq, tsort, and pr to the bash auto-approval allowlist
• Fixed stdin freeze in long-running sessions where keystrokes stop being processed but the process stays alive
• Fixed a 5–8 second startup freeze for users with voice mode enabled, caused by CoreAudio initialization blocking the main thread after system wake
• Fixed startup UI freeze when many claude.ai proxy connectors refresh an expired OAuth token simultaneously
• Fixed forked conversations (/fork) sharing the same plan file, which caused plan edits in one fork to overwrite the other
• Fixed the Read tool putting oversized images into context when image processing failed, breaking subsequent turns in long image-heavy sessions
• Fixed false-positive permission prompts for compound bash commands containing heredoc commit messages
• Fixed plugin installations being lost when running multiple Claude Code instances
• Fixed claude.ai connectors failing to reconnect after OAuth token refresh
• Fixed claude.ai MCP connector startup notifications appearing for every org-configured connector instead of only previously connected ones
• Fixed background agent completion notifications missing the output file path, which made it difficult for parent agents to recover agent results after context compaction
• Fixed duplicate output in Bash tool error messages when commands exit with non-zero status
• Fixed Chrome extension auto-detection getting permanently stuck on "not installed" after running on a machine without local Chrome
• Fixed /plugin marketplace update failing with merge conflicts when the marketplace is pinned to a branch/tag ref
• Fixed /plugin marketplace add owner/repo@ref incorrectly parsing @ — previously only # worked as a ref separator, causing undiagnosable errors with strictKnownMarketplaces
• Fixed duplicate entries in /permissions Workspace tab when the same directory is added with and without a trailing slash
• Fixed --print hanging forever when team agents are configured — the exit loop no longer waits on long-lived in_process_teammate tasks
• Fixed "❯ Tool loaded." appearing in the REPL after every ToolSearch call
• Fixed prompting for cd <cwd> && git ... on Windows when the model uses a mingw-style path
• Improved startup time by deferring native image processor loading to first use
• Improved bridge session reconnection to complete within seconds after laptop wake from sleep, instead of waiting up to 10 minutes
• Improved /plugin uninstall to disable project-scoped plugins in .claude/settings.local.json instead of modifying .claude/settings.json, so changes don't affect teammates
• Improved plugin-provided MCP server deduplication — servers that duplicate a manually-configured server (same command/URL) are now skipped, preventing duplicate connections and tool sets. Suppressions are shown in the /plugin menu.
• Updated /debug to toggle debug logging on mid-session, since debug logs are no longer written by default
• Removed startup notification noise for unauthenticated org-registered claude.ai connectors
