Claude Code 2.1.211 አውርድ

- Added --forward-subagent-text flag and CLAUDE_CODE_FORWARD_SUBAGENT_TEXT environment variable to include subagent text and thinking in stream-json output
- Fixed permission previews relayed to chat channels not neutralizing bidirectional-override, zero-width, and look-alike quote characters, so tool inputs cannot visually alter the approval message
- Fixed auto mode overriding a PreToolUse hook's ask decision for unsandboxed Bash — a hook ask now floors the decision at a prompt
- Fixed parallel Claude Code sessions all logging out simultaneously after wake-from-sleep when many sessions share one credential store
- Fixed plugin MCP servers not reconnecting after an idle web session woke, leaving MCP calls failing until the next message
- Fixed Claude Code on Vertex and Bedrock attempting the default Opus model at startup and printing a spurious fallback notice when a model is explicitly configured
- Fixed subagents spawned with an explicit model override reverting to the parent's model when resumed or sent a follow-up message
- Fixed nested .claude/rules/*.md files loading even when setting sources exclude project settings
- Fixed file upload validation: filenames ending in a DOS device suffix (.prn) or trailing dot are now accepted, and files with multiple hard links are refused
- Fixed file uploads to Claude in Chrome from remote and CLI sessions
- Fixed edits that leave the input as "?" being silently swallowed and toggling the shortcuts panel
- Fixed a startup hang when the Claude in Chrome extension is enabled but Chrome is not running
- Fixed a 300ms delay revealing async content (Settings tabs, Stats, diff views, and other loading states)
- Fixed reopening a just-stopped background session from the agents view starting a blank conversation under the same session id
- Fixed /loop hiding the session from /resume after a single use
- Fixed screen reader users losing the audible terminal bell after /terminal-setup or onboarding terminal setup
- Fixed background jobs on LLM gateway auth (ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN + ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL) coming back "Not logged in" after the daemon respawns them
- Fixed claude agents jobs becoming permanently undeletable when git no longer recognizes their worktree — the row now shows why the delete was refused instead of silently reappearing
- Fixed /clear not resetting the session cost counter — the statusline's cost now starts at $0 after /clear
- Fixed Claude in Chrome setup pages failing to open in the browser on Windows
- Fixed headless print-mode sessions on Windows crashing or silently exiting when stdin is unreadable
- Fixed background session titles in the agents view showing the naming model's refusal text when the prompt contains a link
- Fixed background agents killed by the user auto-respawning, and revived agents re-running stale prompts from old sessions
- Fixed routines with no schedule reporting a next run time in the year 1
- Hardened synced skill/plugin directory naming on Windows and kept CCR web fetch/search proxies working after /clear
- Improved terminal layout and rendering performance
- Improved background agent result reporting — Claude now reports the status of still-running agents and waits for the real completion instead of fabricating results
- Improved the memory index over-limit warning to measure only loaded content, excluding frontmatter and HTML comments
- Updated integer environment variables (timeouts, token budgets, retry counts) to accept scientific notation and digit-separator spellings like 1e6 and 64_000
- Updated documentation links to the current docs sites
- Changed "always allow" permission rules to save at the repository root, so approvals granted in a git worktree persist across sessions and worktrees
- Changed /usage-credits to ask for confirmation before sending a request to organization admins
- Changed Vim mode s and S (substitute char/line) to work in NORMAL mode, matching vim behavior
- [VSCode] Updated the Remote Control banner to describe what it does
- Claude in Chrome: hardened file-upload path validation
- Claude in Chrome: save_to_disk on screenshot actions now writes the image to disk and returns the path; previously it did nothing
- Fixed a prompt-caching regression on Bedrock, Vertex, Mantle, and Foundry that billed the trailing system context block as fresh input tokens on every request.
