Claude Code v2.1.282

What's changed

• Added a maxProseWidth setting that caps the width of Claude's prose in wide terminals while tables and code blocks keep the full width
• Added a startup notice, and /status and claude doctor entries, listing telemetry variables in a project's settings files that were ignored or that turned telemetry off
• Added the allowClaudeInChromeWithManagedMcp managed setting to let claude --chrome run alongside an exclusive managed-mcp.json; the error shown when Chrome is blocked now names it
• Added store.readiness_grace_seconds to the Claude apps gateway so /readyz can stay ready through a short Postgres outage such as a database failover
• Added a scrollbar to the /feedback drafts list in fullscreen mode; it appears while the mouse is over the list
• Fixed every request failing with a 400 error in conversations whose history holds web search results the API cannot decrypt (for example, from a turn answered through a third-party gateway)
• Fixed more cases of continued or resumed sessions (--continue, --resume) re-sending earlier messages in a changed form, which could make the API drop Claude's earlier reasoning
• Fixed earlier extended thinking being dropped when /model, /rename, /artifacts or another immediate slash command was used while Claude was working
• Fixed continued or resumed conversations losing earlier extended thinking when relaunched with a --tools list that leaves out a built-in tool offered earlier in the conversation
• Fixed sessions failing on every turn with an "Invalid data in redacted_thinking block" API error; Claude Code now drops the conversation's thinking blocks and retries once
• Fixed compaction failing when the summarization request is refused; it now retries on a fallback model
• Fixed a failed turn ("Effort 'xhigh' isn't available with thinking turned off") after a safety-related model switch in sessions with thinking off and effort above high
• Fixed an unanswered Fable usage-credits prompt switching models in SDK-hosted sessions such as Claude Desktop; the turn now ends instead, and Remote Control clients now see the model-switch notice
• Fixed /model with a full Fable model id stopping at an API error instead of opening the usage-credits prompt when the plan needs usage credits that aren't turned on yet
• Fixed requests failing for up to a minute with an "another Claude Code process is refreshing it" login error after that other process was closed or killed mid-refresh
• Fixed sessions started while another Claude Code window was refreshing the sign-in (common with several VS Code windows) not retrying their organization policy fetch
• Fixed CLAUDE.md and rules being read at startup through a repository symlink reaching macOS's /Network via .. or a /.vol-style kernel path, or a rules link to macOS's /home being listed
• Fixed Bash permission rules with a mid-pattern :* being skipped in settings files while --allowedTools honored them; they now work from every source, with a startup warning on how they match
• Fixed a command approved on a restored permission prompt running twice when a remote session's worker restarted
• Fixed managed settings ignoring a mistyped value for boolean lock keys such as disableClaudeAiConnectors or allowManagedPermissionRulesOnly; the lock now applies and startup names the key
• Fixed managed permissions, autoMode, worktree and attribution settings being ignored entirely when one nested value was invalid; the rest of the block now still applies
• Fixed repository, user and --add-dir skills, commands and skills-directory plugin manifests pre-approving their own tools via allowed-tools under managed allowManagedPermissionRulesOnly
• Fixed safeguard block messages on Amazon Bedrock and Bedrock Mantle not showing a request ID; block messages now also show the message ID
• Vertex AI: Fixed web search not being offered for models Claude Code doesn't recognize yet, such as newly released ones
