Claude Code now shows a one-time notice when your npm global install can't auto-update; `/doctor` lists the fixes
Status line commands now receive `COLUMNS` and `LINES` environment variables so scripts can size output to the terminal width
claude agents: autocomplete in the dispatch input now suggests native slash commands and bundled skills, not just project skills
claude agents: PR column now shows `PR #N` for a single PR or `N PRs` for multiple
claude doctor now shows the result of your last update attempt
Combined the separate "needs authentication" startup notifications for MCP servers and connectors into a single message
macOSBackground agents now appear as "Claude Code" in Privacy & Security and keep their permission grants across upgrades
--strict-mcp-config no longer strips inline `mcpServers` from explicitly-passed agent definitions (`--agents` / SDK `agents`), and blocked subagent MCP servers now surface a visible warning
/bg while Claude is responding now continues the response in the background session instead of dropping it
/model now saves your selection as the default for new sessions (matching the IDE). Press `s` in the picker to switch models for the current session only.
If you customized the modelPicker:setAsDefault keybinding, rename it to `modelPicker:thisSessionOnly` in keybindings.json (the `d` action was replaced by `s`)
