Description
When using /rewind in v2.1.17, the rewind menu correctly detects and displays file changes, but the confirmation screen doesn't offer an option to rollback those changes.
Steps to Reproduce
- Make a file change through Claude (e.g., edit
settings.local.json) - Run
/rewind - Select the conversation turn that made the change
Expected Behavior
The confirmation screen should offer an option to restore both conversation AND code changes.
Actual Behavior
First screen (list view) - correctly shows changes:
Rewind
Restore the code and/or conversation to the point before…
really?…
No code changes
❯ yes fix it
settings.local.json +1 -1
(current)
Second screen (confirmation) - ignores the changes:
Rewind
Confirm you want to restore to the point before you sent this message:
│ yes fix it
│ (26m ago)
The conversation will be forked.
The code will be unchanged.
❯ 1. Restore conversation
2. Never mind
The file changes are detected and displayed in the list, but the rollback option is not offered in the confirmation dialog.
Environment
- Claude Code version: 2.1.17
