Claude Code 2.1.282
Added maxProseWidth setting for prose in wide terminals, startup telemetry notices, Chrome managed settings, database failover resilience, and cloud session repository features. Updated API billing docs links, auto mode classifier behavior, and settings precedence rules; refined UI styling and Slack card rendering.
Added
- Added a
maxProseWidthsetting 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
/statusandclaude doctorentries, listing telemetry variables in a project's settings files that were ignored or that turned telemetry off - Added the
allowClaudeInChromeWithManagedMcpmanaged setting to letclaude --chromerun alongside an exclusivemanaged-mcp.json; the error shown when Chrome is blocked now names it - Added
store.readiness_grace_secondsto the Claude apps gateway so/readyzcan stay ready through a short Postgres outage such as a database failover - Added a scrollbar to the
/feedbackdrafts list in fullscreen mode; it appears while the mouse is over the list - [Cloud sessions] Added Claude GitHub App status to Settings › Connectors › GitHub: whether the app is installed and reachable for your account, plus steps to connect, install or reconnect
- [Cloud sessions] Added "Open repository" and "Open compare page" links to the repository menu of a cloud session whose repository is hosted on a Git server other than GitHub
- [Cloud sessions] Added attaching a repository from a different GitHub owner, such as a fork's upstream, to a running cloud session that already has one, including sessions started from Slack
Changed
- Updated the
claude-apiskill: pre-output refusal billing now links to the How refusals are billed docs, mid-stream refusals bill at normal rates, and pre-output refusals count against rate limits - Updated the
claude-apiskill to recommendant applyfor keeping Managed Agents resources as version-controlled files - Changed auto mode to use the server-side classifier by default on a direct Anthropic API connection when telemetry is off (
CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_MODE_SERVER=0opts out) - Changed
sandbox.excludedCommandsto ignore project and local settings entries when managed settings or--settingssetallowUnsandboxedCommands: false, or managedallowManagedDomainsOnly: true - Changed project and local settings to ignore OpenTelemetry variables that turn on export, set its endpoint, or capture content, like
CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TELEMETRYandOTEL_LOG_* - Changed Windows/WSL managed settings so an admin policy that is present but invalid or unreadable (HKLM,
managed-settings.json) keeps user-writable HKCU and WSL/etc/claude-codefrom applying - Changed
Skill(anthropic-skills:*)andSkill(claude-ai:*)allow rules to cover only skills synced from claude.ai, not plugins or other skills that merely use such a name - Changed skill folders, command files and workflow commands in the
anthropic-skillsorclaude-ainamespace to no longer load; a plugin so named still loads but yields name ties to synced skills - Changed MCP servers configured under the name
anthropic-skillsorclaude-aito list no skills or prompts (their tools still work); rename the server in your MCP configuration to list them again - Changed the
ultracodevisuals in/effortand the prompt input to plain styling (no ripple, border flourish or keyword glimmer) and removed the dynamic-workflows spinner tip - Changed the Clawd mascot's feet in the start-up banner to sit under the corners of his body
- [Claude Tag] Changed the bordered cards Claude uses in Slack replies for plans, tables and details to render wide by default instead of a narrow width
- [Claude Tag] Changed newly connected Slack workspaces to follow the current default model instead of keeping whichever model was the default when they were connected
