Claude Code 2.1.307

[What's changed] Changed the `axScreenReader` setting and `CLAUDE_AX_SCREEN_READER` in a settings `env` block to apply only from user, managed or `--settings` settings (since 2.1.305)

[What's changed] Self-hosted runner: Changed checkout hooks to be stopped after 30 minutes by default, failing the session's setup; if yours needs longer, raise `--checkout-hook-timeout-min` or set it to `0`

[What's changed] Added `/claude-api api-version` to move Claude API code to API version `2026-10-21`

[What's changed] Added the `claude_code.safety_event` OpenTelemetry event for each tool call a permission rule, auto mode, a safety check, a hook or the sandbox stopped, prompted or sent back

[What's changed] Improved recovery from unparseable tool calls: Claude Code now retries the call up to twice before ending the turn with an error

[What's changed] Improved fork subagents launched together: each is now told which launch is its own, so forks are much less likely to try to start each other's work

[What's changed] Improved browser sign-in: the success page now appears as soon as sign-in completes, without waiting for your account profile to load

[What's changed] [Code Review] Added `@claude review stop` (also `off` and `pause`) to Code Review, ending an `@claude review always` subscription on a pull request without starting a new review

[What's changed] Improved web search errors in cloud and self-hosted runner sessions: a search refused with a 403 that gives a reason now shows that reason instead of a generic "Authentication error"

[What's changed] Improved the time to the first reply in cloud sessions when one of the desktop app's MCP servers can't connect

[What's changed] Improved Remote Control connect time for sessions whose transcript contains large pasted images or PDF reads

[What's changed] Changed the notice Claude gets when the WebSearch budget is used up to also tell it not to query search engines in a browser or through computer use

[What's changed] Self-hosted runner: Changed the certificate file built for Anthropic-managed git to filter its trusted certificates as the CLI does; a `[runner:warn]` line gives the number left out

[What's changed] [VSCode] Added a notice on the microphone button when voice dictation stops by itself (15 seconds without recognized speech, or the 2-minute limit), saying why and that the text so far is kept

[What's changed] [VSCode] Changed the "still open somewhere else" notice to also cover a Claude process left over from an extension restart, which usually ends on its own within about 10 minutes

[What's changed] [VSCode] Changed voice dictation to filter its trusted certificates as the CLI does

[What's changed] [VSCode] Changed the extension's own requests to filter their trusted certificates as the CLI does, and to trust the `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` file named in the environment or in user settings

[What's changed] Fixed requests failing with a model-not-found error when `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_1M_CONTEXT` is set and the model is an alias with the `[1m]` suffix, such as `opus[1m]`

[What's changed] Fixed MCP servers showing "needs authentication" in `claude -p` on macOS while the login keychain was locked; they now say why, and the next run after an unlock connects without a new sign-in

[What's changed] Fixed MCP servers being reported as timed out, and staying failed in headless runs, when a macOS or Linux computer went to sleep while they were connecting

[What's changed] Fixed HTTP MCP tool calls being sent twice when the connection closed mid-call; only read-only or idempotent tools are now retried

[What's changed] Fixed `/permissions` > Recently denied not showing the denied shell command, and auto mode's local classifier ignoring an approval from there when it checks a retried command; approving a row now names the command, not its description

[What's changed] Fixed model switches through the Agent SDK's `setModel()`, and apps built on it, being refused when the API took more than 5 seconds to confirm the model; Claude Code now waits up to 15 seconds

[What's changed] [VSCode] Fixed dictation failing behind a TLS-inspecting proxy when `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` is set only in `~/.claude/settings.json`; it now also follows `CLAUDE_CODE_CERT_STORE`

[What's changed] Fixed the `prompt-caching-scope` beta header being sent behind custom `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` gateways and on Foundry, where it has no effect

[What's changed] Fixed a turn sometimes starting without an SDK MCP server's latest tools when a background task was running

[What's changed] Fixed some "Autocompact is thrashing" errors in turns that read many PDF pages, images or other large tool results

[What's changed] Fixed `/autocompact` in cloud sessions going back to the default window after the session restarted

[What's changed] Fixed a conversation cleared with `/clear` sometimes coming back when a cloud or self-hosted runner session restarted

[What's changed] Fixed `CLAUDE_STREAM_FIRST_BYTE_TIMEOUT_MS` being ignored in Claude apps gateway sessions

[What's changed] Fixed telemetry from Claude Desktop sessions behind a Claude apps gateway being rejected when `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS` is set

[What's changed] Fixed `/help` and the `/` command menu showing long model-facing descriptions for bundled skills such as `/claude-api` instead of their short descriptions

[What's changed] Fixed subagent transcripts recording placeholder token usage and an empty stop reason for streamed responses

[What's changed] Fixed a background command stopped through a connected app (such as the desktop app archiving an idle session) being reported to Claude as stopped by the user; the notice now names its output file

[What's changed] Fixed WebFetch in Cowork cloud sessions reporting a tool error when a site answered with a 4xx status or a robots.txt refusal; it is now a normal result, as in local sessions

[What's changed] Fixed write tools on a directly configured GitHub MCP server showing a form that closed without creating anything in the desktop app's Code tab

[What's changed] Fixed Artifact tool reads failing with a connection reset when the server had closed a reused connection

[What's changed] Self-hosted runner: Fixed sessions with `--use-anthropic-git-proxy` committing a `.claude/settings.local.json` left in the clone by an earlier session

[What's changed] Self-hosted runner: Fixed archiving or requeueing a session, or stopping the runner, during its checkout hook leaving the hook's processes running and the runner's slot held

[What's changed] [VSCode] Fixed a long prompt expanded with Show more covering the whole chat panel: a pinned prompt is now capped at 40% of the panel and scrolls

[What's changed] [VSCode] Fixed part of a list item or table cell with LaTeX math pasting as a new list or table in rich text editors

[What's changed] [Cloud sessions] Fixed the repository picker saying "No repositories match" while a search was still running; it now shows "Searching…" until the results arrive

[What's changed] [Cloud sessions] Fixed the "Waiting for a runner" status on self-hosted environments being cut off; with on-demand runners it now counts up from your last message and shows failed attempts
