Claude Code 2.1.203 download

- Added a warning when your login is about to expire, so you can re-authenticate before background sessions are interrupted
- Added a grey ⏸ badge to the footer when in manual permission mode, making the active mode always visible
- Added the session's additional working directories to MCP roots/list, with notifications/roots/list_changed sent when the set changes
- Fixed opening or switching background agent sessions on macOS stalling for 15–20 seconds due to a false low-memory detection (regression in 2.1.196)
- Fixed background sessions becoming permanently unresponsive to attach, replies, and stop when the daemon's session token went stale — the session now recovers automatically
- Fixed returning to claude agents silently stopping running subagents and re-running the prompt from scratch — their work now carries over
- Fixed a memory and per-turn CPU regression in interactive sessions: the context-usage indicator no longer re-analyzes the entire transcript after every turn
- Fixed background agents inheriting a stale PATH from the daemon instead of the dispatching shell, causing missing tools on Windows
- Fixed background and agent-view sessions dropping a shell-exported ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL, which sent API keys to the default endpoint and failed with 401
- Fixed Bash failing with "argument list too long" in repos with many git worktrees
- Fixed worktree-isolated subagents sometimes running shell commands in the parent checkout instead of their own worktree
- Fixed worktree creation rejecting nested repositories in multi-repo workspaces, leaving background sessions unable to isolate and edit
- Fixed background agents crash-looping when their working directory was deleted, replaced by a file, or became an invalid path — they now fail once with a clear error
- Fixed a background daemon auto-upgrade failure silently killing all running background sessions
- Fixed TaskStop and TaskOutput failing to find background agents spawned by another agent — errors now list running agents by id and description
- Fixed the claude agents composer discarding your typed message when a slash command isn't available there
- Fixed the agent list crashing when opening a stopped session whose conversation was already open in another session
- Fixed background sessions showing "Needs input" in the agent list after the question was already answered
- Fixed background agent startup failures showing only "exit_with_message" instead of the actual error
- Fixed background sessions ignoring effortLevel changes in settings.json when forked through the daemon
- Fixed attached background sessions ignoring CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_MOUSE and CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_MOUSE_CLICKS opt-outs
- Fixed /exit incorrectly warning about running background agents after all named agents had completed
- Fixed background sessions started from a non-git directory unable to edit files when a WorktreeCreate hook was configured
- Fixed the @ directory picker in claude agents not showing registered git worktrees
- Fixed background task output on Windows being permanently replaced by an empty file after /clear
- Fixed content jumping when scrolling up through long transcript history
- Fixed the terminal flickering and jumping while typing in bash mode when a shell-history suggestion was shown
- Fixed literal ^[[I / ^[[O escape codes being printed when reattaching to a background session
- Fixed LSP-only plugins being incorrectly flagged for disuse when their language servers deliver diagnostics or answer navigation requests
- Improved responsiveness while long responses stream: live-preview updates no longer re-render the whole screen
- Improved subagent behavior: agents are now less likely to re-delegate their entire task to another subagent
- Reduced binary size by ~7 MB and startup memory by ~7 MB by loading a large bundled dependency lazily instead of inlining it
- Changed left arrow to no longer close the background tasks, diff, and workflow detail views — press Esc instead
- Changed the empty claude agents view to always show the organized sections (Needs input / Working / Completed) with descriptions
- Removed the startup "claude command missing or broken" warnings — they now appear in /doctor and /status instead
- Removed a redundant navigation hint from the claude agents footer
- [VSCode] Added a Settings toggle for "Enable Remote Control for all sessions"
