Claude Code v2.1.293

What's changed

• Added Claude Haiku 5.5 (claude-haiku-5-5), now the default Haiku model on the Anthropic API — 1M context, $0.10/$0.50 per Mtok ($0.50/$2.50 for prompts over 100K)
• Added agentType to the subagentStatusLine payload, so scripts can tell custom subagent types apart
• Added isDeferred to $.tool.register for mods: false lists the tool's schema in the prompt from the start instead of behind tool search
• Fixed Claude sometimes treating its own last actions before a context compaction as done after it, and retracting or redoing finished work
• Fixed a memory leak where an HTTP MCP connection kept every request it had sent until it closed
• Fixed a message sent while Claude was working being lost when ← moved the session to the background; if a queued message can't move, ← now stays put and says so
• Fixed /model effort ←/→ wrapping past the highest or lowest level, which could accidentally save Low as a model's default effort
• Fixed /tui disconnecting Claude in Chrome in a session started with --chrome, and ignoring --no-chrome
• Fixed Claude being told to continue or message subagents with SendMessage in sessions, including resumed ones, where a host, a permission rule or a --tools list removed that tool
• Fixed subagents and --agent sessions being told a built-in tool was disabled for the whole session when only their own tool list left it out
• Fixed a claude.ai-synced skill's edited description sometimes not reaching the model until a new conversation or /clear
• Fixed claude logs, stop, kill, rm and claude daemon status, stop, uninstall sometimes signing you out when your login had expired or was about to
• Fixed the footer's agents count disappearing after a momentary failure to read the sessions folder (for example, too many open files)
• Fixed a custom agent named worker being shown as "Agent" when it starts, and the agent detail dialog's title losing the agent type once the agent finishes
• Fixed the Artifact tool's transcript row briefly reading Artifact("(unprintable path)") while a publish call was still streaming in
• Fixed the /ultrareview upload on Linux wrongly refusing some repositories, such as one inside another checkout, over a settings file that "could not be parsed" while a sandboxed command was running
• Fixed the /ultrareview upload's refusal over split-index files advising a git command that could leave git unable to read its index
• Fixed replies in very long Remote Control and cloud sessions that could still appear a block at a time instead of streaming in
• Fixed Remote Control uploading a session's starting history again after every credential recovery
• Fixed PushNotification reporting "Remote Control inactive" in sessions started with claude remote-control
• Fixed a mod's hooks on classic.* events being skipped while the plugin hooks worker restarts, which left settings hooks to answer without them
• Fixed claude plugin test failing for mods that call $.session.append; tests can read the appended rows back with the new mock.session
• Fixed claude plugin eval refusing every Bash-granting run on Macs with Docker Desktop (links under ~/.docker/bin); the refusal now names which part of a credential store held the link
• Fixed the Claude apps gateway refusing to start when a desktop policy sets Claude Desktop's built-in browser keys, such as builtinBrowserEnabled
• Fixed claude agents offering bypass permissions that background sessions then ignored when consent was saved only in .claude/settings.local.json or a --settings file; it now asks for consent first, and a session that ignores bypass shows a short notice that stays
• Fixed ← backgrounding a session after 10 seconds while the prompt held unsent text (it now cancels the move) or a question was waiting for your answer
• Fixed Esc, or No without feedback, on a permission prompt not stopping the turn when ← had just been pressed to move the session to
