Claude Code 2.1.273

Changelog: v2.1.273

What's changed

• Added x-claude-code-request-class, x-claude-code-agent-type, x-claude-code-prev-tool-durations, x-claude-code-compaction and x-claude-code-context-compacted request headers for LLM gateways; opt in with CLAUDE_CODE_GATEWAY_HINT_HEADERS=1
• Added a notification when an MCP server disconnects mid-session and automatic reconnection gives up, pointing at /mcp
• Added forking a session started with claude --remote-control or /remote-control from the Claude app; the fork runs as a background session on your computer
• Fixed Bash commands the permission checker cannot fully analyze skipping the prompt under permissions.blockReadsOutsideWorkingDirectories, and a subshell hiding a dangerous rm in bypass mode
• Fixed skills synced from claude.ai staying available after your organization turns Skills off; they now move to the recoverable trash
• Fixed allowManagedMcpServersOnly, deniedMcpServers and disableClaudeAiConnectors set via MDM or managed-settings.json being ignored when server-managed settings are also present
• Fixed 401/403 errors on Bedrock, Vertex and Foundry, and Claude apps gateway 403s, telling you to run /login; the message now names the credential to refresh or points to your gateway administrator
• Fixed /login, /upgrade, and /extra-usage discarding earlier thinking from the conversation, which forced a full prompt-cache rewrite on the next request
• Fixed auto mode stopping for approval when the Artifact tool uploads a file you attached to the chat in a cloud or Remote Control session
• Fixed a long-running session recreating a stub .git/info/exclude after the repository's .git directory was removed or moved away
• Fixed the main prompt dropping a ! typed at the start while already in shell mode, so negated commands like ! grep … can be typed
• Fixed Read on macOS refusing a dragged-in screenshot, or any file the system reports under a second path, with "symlink resolution changed after permission was checked"
• Fixed permissions.blockReadsOutsideWorkingDirectories: a memory directory chosen by a repository's settings is no longer loaded into the prompt, recalled, indexed, or used by memory extraction
• Fixed sub-agents and background agents being reported as failed, with their result never delivered, when the final streamed reply omitted token usage or carried no model id
• Fixed the context meter and auto-compact counting advisor-tool turns at roughly twice their real context size, which made auto-compact fire at about half the real window
• Fixed /tui refusing to restart because of an agent-team teammate that had already finished its work and was no longer shown in the agents panel
• Fixed saved scheduled tasks running in the wrong session after .claude/scheduled_tasks.json was copied into another folder, such as a new worktree
• Fixed SDK and --output-format stream-json output dropping a subagent's remaining messages and final report after it is moved to the background mid-run (e.g. by CLAUDE_AUTO_BACKGROUND_TASKS)
• Fixed /install-github-app reporting a SAML single sign-on block as "admin permissions required"
• Fixed Remote Control clients attached to a Claude Desktop, VS Code or JetBrains session being refused when they ask for the session's context window usage
• Fixed the spinner showing a doubled ellipsis ("……") on compaction status lines such as "Running PreCompact hooks…"
• Fixed a false-positive spinner tip suggesting the frontend-design plugin after reading or publishing Artifacts
• Reverted a 2.1.268 change that checked Read and Edit deny rules on Bash lines the permission checker can't analyze (eval, env -C); commands like time -p make build prompt again instead of being denied
• Improved responsiveness in long sessions: hook progress and sub-agent activity no longer re-process the whole conversation on every update
• Improved the Artifact tool's error when a publish includes a file type artifacts don't serve: Claude is told which types are served and what to do instead, and the terminal shows one plain line
• Improved the Artifact tool's page read to state the capabilities and database rules the artifact service holds for the page, for anyone who can publish to it
• Improved artifact database writes: an update can now remove a single field instead of rewriting the whole document
• Improved artifact publishing: a publish whose connection drops after reaching claude.ai is now re-sent safely instead of failing or creating a duplicate version
• Improved the cloud-session GitHub error for an IP allow list, a suspended app installation or SAML single sign-on to show the cause instead of a generic install hint
• Improved /autofix-pr: when gh pr view fails it now shows gh's own error (sign-in, SAML, rate limit) instead of a generic exit-code line
• Improved /autofix-pr to say why GitHub webhook delivery couldn't be set up for the PR (for example, no linked GitHub account) instead of a generic warning
• Improved /web-setup errors: a refused GitHub token now lists the likely reasons and the fix, and a connection failure names a configured proxy or TLS certificate problem
• Improved the in-session SSL certificate and proxy connection errors to name the error code and what to fix, such as NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS for an untrusted corporate CA
• Improved the error when a cloud session can't be created because your Claude login expired or was revoked: it now tells you to run /login
• Improved the error shown when an MCP server's sign-in expires mid-session to say how to re-authenticate (/mcp)
• Changed auto mode on Bedrock, Vertex and Foundry to use the local classifier by default for now; set CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_MODE_SERVER=1 to use the platform's server-side classifier
• Changed OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1 to also include real agent, skill, plugin and MCP server names on cost and token metrics
• Changed sign-in with a Claude account to also request access to your claude.ai plugins
• Changed /bug and /feedback reports to include only model-behavior params (model, system prompt, tools) from the last API request, omitting request metadata and CLAUDE_CODE_EXTRA_BODY fields
• [VSCode] Fixed "Report a problem" still appearing, and /bug / /feedback opening a report form, for organizations that have product feedback disabled
• [VSCode] Fixed a red "Claude Code process exited with code 4294967295" banner appearing after completed turns on Windows
• Windows: Improved the network-path permission check for UNC paths when a mapped network drive was added with --add-dir
• [Claude Code on the web] Fixed routines losing access to an organization connector, and still calling the old one, after an admin removed and re-added that connector
• [Claude Code on the web] Fixed creating a self-hosted environment from organization settings occasionally failing with a server error and leaving a half-created environment behind
• [Claude Code on the web] Changed the admin "Share cloud sessions" setting to live under Data and privacy instead of the Claude Code page, where Data and privacy admins can also manage it
• [Claude Code on the web] Added a "Discard unsaved changes?" confirmation before the New routine page or the Edit routine dialog throws away a routine name, prompt or edit you typed
• [Claude Code on the web] Removed the full-page desktop-app download screen that new users without a cloud environment saw on Mac and Windows; they now go straight to setup
• [Claude Code on the web] Improved the routine detail page: menu and rename in the breadcrumb, the on/off switch and Run now at the top, and run history beside the routine's settings
• [Claude Tag] Fixed Claude going silent minutes after reinstalling the app when an Enterprise Grid was disconnected but one of its workspaces stayed connected
• [Claude Tag] Fixed scheduled tasks set up in an organization-shared private Slack channel silently never posting; they now keep running in the thread they were created in
• [Claude Tag] Fixed replying in an older Slack thread while Claude is mid-task sometimes restarting it from scratch and losing work it had not pushed yet
• [Claude Tag] Fixed Claude occasionally dropping a message with an incorrect "couldn't find a Claude Code environment" notice right after your account token refreshed
• [Claude Tag] Fixed AWS connections refusing region-less endpoints such as Budgets, Savings Plans, WAF Classic and Import/Export; Global Accelerator requests now sign correctly
• [Claude Tag] Improved AWS connection failures: when a request can't be signed, such as a hostname with no region, Claude is told why and how to fix it instead of a bare error
• [Claude Tag] Fixed OAuth client-credentials and JWT-bearer connections failing with providers that return a lowercase token type; requests now send the standard Bearer scheme
• [Claude Tag] Fixed adding a channel manager being refused on Enterprise Grid shared channels, on channels where Claude hasn't been used yet, and on legacy private channels
• [Claude Tag] Changed Claude to start watching related public channels on its own, such as an incident channel a conversation depends on, instead of only when asked
• [Claude Tag] Fixed the admin Memory page not listing Slack channels Claude set up on its own even when they had saved memory; admins can now open, edit and delete that memory
• [Code Review] Fixed merging the base branch into a PR whose earlier review listed "Additional findings" triggering a full re-review; these pushes now get the lighter follow-up review
• [Code Review] Fixed a whole REVIEW.md being ignored because of an @-mention, a code span wrapped across lines, or a backticked HTML tag; only lines linking to changed files are withheld
• [Code Review] Improved suggested fixes to say what the fix must keep working when other code depends on the behavior being changed
• [Code Review] Improved review comments that point to a second affected location to state that location's issue in a full sentence instead of a cut-off stub
• [Code Review] Fixed /ultrareview --post so a retry after a GitHub error posts the findings comment exactly once instead of never or twice; the comment now names the reviewed commit
• [Code Review] Fixed empty or content-identical pushes being re-reviewed on GitHub repositories whose owner or name contains a capital letter; these pushes are now skipped
