Release notes

- Added focus view toggle (Ctrl+O) in NO_FLICKER mode showing prompt, one-line tool summary with edit diffstats, and final response
- Added refreshInterval status line setting to re-run the status line command every N seconds
- Added workspace.git_worktree to the status line JSON input, set when the current directory is inside a linked git worktree
- Added ● N running indicator in /agents next to agent types with live subagent instances
- Added syntax highlighting for Cedar policy files (.cedar, .cedarpolicy)
- Fixed --dangerously-skip-permissions being silently downgraded to accept-edits mode after approving a write to a protected path
- Fixed and hardened Bash tool permissions, tightening checks around env-var prefixes and network redirects, and reducing false prompts on common commands
- Fixed permission rules with names matching JavaScript prototype properties (e.g. toString) causing settings.json to be silently ignored
- Fixed managed-settings allow rules remaining active after an admin removed them until process restart
- Fixed permissions.additionalDirectories changes in settings not applying mid-session
- Fixed removing a directory from settings.permissions.additionalDirectories revoking access to the same directory passed via --add-dir
- Fixed MCP HTTP/SSE connections accumulating ~50 MB/hr of unreleased buffers when servers reconnect
- Fixed MCP OAuth oauth.authServerMetadataUrl not being honored on token refresh after restart, fixing ADFS and similar IdPs
- Fixed 429 retries burning all attempts in ~13 seconds when the server returns a small Retry-After — exponential backoff now applies as a minimum
- Fixed rate-limit upgrade options disappearing after context compaction
- Fixed several /resume picker issues: --resume <name> opening uneditable, Ctrl+A reload wiping search, empty list swallowing navigation, task-status text replacing conversation summary, and cross-project staleness
- Fixed file-edit diffs disappearing on --resume when the edited file was larger than 10KB
- Fixed --resume cache misses and lost mid-turn input from attachment messages not being saved to the transcript
- Fixed messages typed while Claude is working not being persisted to the transcript
- Fixed prompt-type Stop/SubagentStop hooks failing on long sessions, and hook evaluator API errors displaying "JSON validation failed" instead of the actual message
- Fixed subagents with worktree isolation or cwd: override leaking their working directory back to the parent session's Bash tool
- Fixed compaction writing duplicate multi-MB subagent transcript files on prompt-too-long retries
- Fixed claude plugin update reporting "already at the latest version" for git-based marketplace plugins when the remote had newer commits
- Fixed slash command picker breaking when a plugin's frontmatter name is a YAML boolean keyword
- Fixed copying wrapped URLs in NO_FLICKER mode inserting spaces at line breaks
- Fixed scroll rendering artifacts in NO_FLICKER mode when running inside zellij
- Fixed a crash in NO_FLICKER mode when hovering over MCP tool results
- Fixed a NO_FLICKER mode memory leak where API retries left stale streaming state
- Fixed slow mouse-wheel scrolling in NO_FLICKER mode on Windows Terminal
- Fixed custom status line not displaying in NO_FLICKER mode on terminals shorter than 24 rows
- Fixed Shift+Enter and Alt/Cmd+arrow shortcuts not working in Warp with NO_FLICKER mode
- Fixed Korean/Japanese/Unicode text becoming garbled when copied in no-flicker mode on Windows
- Fixed Bedrock SigV4 authentication failing when AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK or ANTHROPIC_BEDROCK_BASE_URL are set to empty strings (as GitHub Actions does for unset inputs)
- Improved Accept Edits mode to auto-approve filesystem commands prefixed with safe env vars or process wrappers (e.g. LANG=C rm foo, timeout 5 mkdir out)
- Improved auto mode and bypass-permissions mode to auto-approve sandbox network access prompts
- Improved sandbox: sandbox.network.allowMachLookup now takes effect on macOS
- Improved image handling: pasted and attached images are now compressed to the same token budget as images read via the Read tool
- Improved slash command and @-mention completion to trigger after CJK sentence punctuation, so Japanese/Chinese input no longer requires a space before / or @
- Improved Bridge sessions to show the local git repo, branch, and working directory on the claude.ai session card
- Improved footer layout: indicators (Focus, notifications) now stay on the mode-indicator row instead of wrapping below
- Improved context-low warning to show as a transient footer notification instead of a persistent row
- Improved markdown blockquotes to show a continuous left bar across wrapped lines
- Improved session transcript size by skipping empty hook entries and capping stored pre-edit file copies
- Improved transcript accuracy: per-block entries now carry the final token usage instead of the streaming placeholder
- Improved Bash tool OTEL tracing: subprocesses now inherit a W3C TRACEPARENT env var when tracing is enabled
- Updated /claude-api skill to cover Managed Agents alongside the Claude API
