v2.1.157

What's changed

• Plugins in .claude/skills directories are now automatically loaded, no marketplace required


• Added claude plugin init <name> to scaffold a new plugin in .claude/skills


• Added autocomplete for /plugin arguments: subcommands, installed plugin names, and plugins from known marketplaces


• claude agents: the agent field in settings.json is now honored for dispatched sessions, with --agent <name> to override it


• EnterWorktree can now switch between Claude-managed worktrees mid-session


• tool_decision telemetry events now include tool_parameters (bash commands, MCP/skill names) when OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1


• Worktrees managed by Claude are now left unlocked when the agent finishes, so git worktree remove/prune can clean them up


• Fixed unprocessable images (zero-byte, corrupt) attached via paste, MCP, or dialog crashing the request instead of becoming a text placeholder


• Fixed sandbox network permission prompts appearing in auto and bypass-permissions mode when using the desktop app, IDE extensions, or SDK


• Fixed claude agents completed sessions not retiring when an idle subagent was still parked or had leaked a backgrounded shell


• Fixed claude agents pressing Esc not cancelling a slow "opening…", leaving the list unresponsive


• Fixed background agent worktrees under .claude/worktrees/ being orphaned after the 30-day job retention sweep


• Fixed background sessions re-attached after a sleep/wake not telling the model the correct date


• Fixed copy-on-select in claude agents not reaching the system clipboard inside tmux with set-clipboard on (regression in 2.1.153)


• Fixed --resume not reporting background subagents that were running when the previous Claude Code process exited


• Fixed the --resume session picker leaving its contents on the terminal after exiting in fullscreen mode


• Fixed --worktree and --worktree --tmux returning to the canonical repo root instead of the current linked worktree


• Fixed the /model picker showing an incorrect "Newer version available" hint when the selected model is already the newest in its family; the pinned-model row now shows the model's description instead of its raw ID


• Fixed literal markdown markers (backticks, asterisks) appearing in the in-progress message text in fullscreen mode


• Fixed the terminal freezing after approving the managed-settings security dialog at startup


• Fixed a rare duplicate line appearing in scrollback after the terminal UI redraws


• Fixed right-click paste duplicating the clipboard in the VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf integrated terminals


• WSL: fixed image paste (alt+v keybinding), screenshot paste on Windows 11, and added support for dragging images from Windows Explorer


• Improved performance of long and resumed conversations by eliminating redundant message-rendering recomputations


• /terminal-setup now disables GPU acceleration in VS Code/Cursor/Windsurf integrated terminals to prevent garbled-text rendering


• The Feature of the Week credit-claim status now appears as a notification in the status area instead of a line above the prompt


• claude agents: slash-command autocomplete in the dispatch input now matches substrings


• Removed the "bash commands will be sandboxed" startup banner — sandbox status still shows in /status and when a command is blocked


• Removed the "/ide for …" startup hint toast


• [IDE] Fixed clicking Stop while a background subagent is running not actually stopping it


• [VSCode] Fixed the fast mode indicator not appearing on Opus 4.8


• Pressing backspace right after a workflow trigger keyword now dismisses the workflow request (same as alt+w) instead of deleting a character


• Added a "Workflow keyword trigger" setting in /config to stop the word "workflow" in a prompt from triggering a dynamic workflow
