Proposed actions

  1. Run a 30-minute bake-off of Claude Code's new/default model on one real task you care about.
  2. Re-check agent/tool permissions for Claude Code on a throwaway repo before daily use.
  3. Read the primary release notes and note any permission, sandbox, or API breaks for Claude Code.
  4. Verify plan/credit impact for Claude Code before expanding usage.

Developer implication: Try in a throwaway repo before changing daily workflow.
Team implication: Pilot / sandbox / policy review before org rollout.

## Suggested actions
1. Run a 30-minute bake-off of Claude Code's new/default model on one real task you care about.
2. Re-check agent/tool permissions for Claude Code on a throwaway repo before daily use.
3. Read the primary release notes and note any permission, sandbox, or API breaks for Claude Code.

6. Pilot / sandbox / policy review before org rollout.


## Your job
1. Restate the change in one sentence.
2. Propose a minimal plan for my repo (or a throwaway pilot).
3. Implement only what I approve; prefer small diffs and tests.
4. Call out risks (permissions, breaking APIs, cost).

Start by confirming you understood the proposal.

v2.1.212

`/fork` now copies your conversation into a new background session (its own row in `claude agents`) while you keep working; the in-session subagent it used to launch is now `/subtask` · Added `claude auto-mode reset` to restore the default auto-mode configuration, with a confirmation prompt (pass `--yes` to skip) · Added a session-wide limit on WebSearch tool calls (default 200, tunable via `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_WEB_SEARCHES_PER_SESSION`) to stop runaway search loops · Added a per-session cap on suba

Verified excerpt — the source's own words
## What's changed

- `/fork` now copies your conversation into a new background session (its own row in `claude agents`) while you keep working; the in-session subagent it used to launch is now `/subtask`
- Added `claude auto-mode reset` to restore the default auto-mode configuration, with a confirmation prompt (pass `--yes` to skip)
- Added a session-wide limit on WebSearch tool calls (default 200, tunable via `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_WEB_SEARCHES_PER_SESSION`) to stop runaway search loops
- Added a per-session cap on subagent spawns (default 200, override with `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_SUBAGENTS_PER_SESSION`) to stop runaway delegation loops; `/clear` resets the budget
- MCP tool calls running longer than 2 minutes now move to the background automatically so the session stays usable; configure the threshold or disable with `CLAUDE_CODE_MCP_AUTO_BACKGROUND_MS`
- Typing `/resume` in the agent view now opens a picker of past sessions — including sessions deleted from the list — and resumes your pick as a background session
- Fixed plan mode auto-running file-modifying Bash commands (e.g. `touch`, `rm`) without a permission prompt or SDK `canUseTool` callback
