/resume on large sessions is significantly faster (up to 67% on 40MB+ sessions) and handles sessions with many dead-fork entries more efficiently

Faster MCP startup when multiple stdio servers are configured; resources/templates/list is now deferred to first @-mention

Smoother fullscreen scrolling in VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf terminals — /terminal-setup now configures the editor's scroll sensitivity

Thinking spinner now shows progress inline ("still thinking", "thinking more", "almost done thinking"), replacing the separate hint row

/config search now matches option values (e.g. searching "vim" finds the Editor mode setting)

/doctor can now be opened while Claude is responding, without waiting for the current turn to finish

/reload-plugins and background plugin auto-update now auto-install missing plugin dependencies from marketplaces you've already added

Bash tool now surfaces a hint when gh commands hit GitHub's API rate limit, so agents can back off instead of retrying

The Usage tab in Settings now shows your 5-hour and weekly usage immediately and no longer fails when the usage endpoint is rate-limited

Agent frontmatter hooks: now fire when running as a main-thread agent via --agent

Slash command menu now shows "No commands match" when your filter has zero results, instead of disappearing

Security: sandbox auto-allow no longer bypasses the dangerous-path safety check for rm/rmdir targeting /, $HOME, or other critical system directories

Fixed Ctrl+- not triggering undo in terminals using the Kitty keyboard protocol (iTerm2, Ghostty, kitty, WezTerm, Windows Terminal)

Fixed Cmd+Left/Right not jumping to line start/end in terminals that use the Kitty keyboard protocol (Warp fullscreen, kitty, Ghostty, WezTerm)

Fixed Ctrl+Z hanging the terminal when Claude Code is launched via a wrapper process (e.g. npx, bun run)

Fixed scrollback duplication in inline mode where resizing the terminal or large output bursts would repeat earlier conversation history

Fixed modal search dialogs overflowing the screen at short terminal heights, hiding the search box and keyboard hints

Fixed scattered blank cells and disappearing composer chrome in the VS Code integrated terminal during scrolling

Fixed an intermittent API 400 error related to cache control TTL ordering that could occur when a parallel request completed during request setup

Fixed /branch rejecting conversations with transcripts larger than 50MB
