Claude Code 2.1.228 download

- Fixed interactive sessions that could stop redrawing entirely, while the process kept running, after a rare internal layout error
- Fixed git / Git Bash not being found on Windows when Claude Code is launched from a parent folder of the git installation
- Fixed /tui reverting the session to an earlier model when /model had been changed since the last response
- Fixed cross-session messaging sometimes starting without an inbox in the first session after install or upgrade
- Fixed Remote Control /resume while connected leaking the resumed conversation's title or history into the connected session
- Fixed claude self-hosted-runner sessions failing on every fresh runner when the checkout hook fails for a repository the session doesn't push to; that repository is now skipped with a warning
- Fixed self-hosted runners ending sessions in the gap between a background task finishing and the follow-up turn starting
- Fixed session cleanup deleting contents inside a project's memory folder
- Fixed background plugin-cache cleanup deleting a plugin's cache when its only version is a symlinked development checkout
- Fixed a settings-merge issue where a marketplace entry redefined in a higher-precedence settings tier could inherit another tier's custom headers; marketplace entries now merge as whole entries
- Fixed the deferred-tools reminder occasionally being sent to the model twice after a skill invocation
- Hardened skills synced from claude.ai: they no longer shadow local commands or MCP prompts, their descriptions are sanitized and labeled, and on your machine their bodies don't run ! commands or expand @ files
- Improved cross-session messages: the sender and body now display inline instead of a collapsed line, and messages to Remote Control sessions on other machines show your Remote Control session name as the sender
- Improved Vertex AI credential handling: expired or missing Google Cloud credentials now fail within seconds instead of retrying for minutes
- Improved compaction progress: the retry countdown and stall hint now appear during compaction instead of only a progress bar
- Updated terminal title busy-spinner glyphs to reduce tab-bar jitter on some terminals
- Changed the Write tool so newer models can overwrite an existing file they haven't read this session, matching the Edit tool's rules; older models still require the read first
- Removed the outdated note about auto mode sessions costing slightly more from the first-use notice for Pro, Max, and Team plans
