TL;DR
Opus 4.7 lands with a new
xhigheffort tier. Use/effortto access it (now opens an interactive slider without arguments); other models fall back tohigh.Auto mode no longer requires
--enable-auto-mode. Drop the flag if you've been passing it; Max subscribers also get auto mode on Opus 4.7./ultrareviewruns parallel multi-agent code review in the cloud. Invoke bare for the current branch or/ultrareview <PR#>for a specific pull request.Read-only bash with glob patterns skips the permission prompt now.
ls *.tsand commands starting withcd <project-dir> &&go straight through.v2.1.110's non-streaming retry cap is reverted (more below). If you saw more outright failures during API overload yesterday, this should resolve them.
New in 2.1.112, 2.1.111
2.1.112 (April 17, 2026)
- Fixed "claude-opus-4-7 is temporarily unavailable" for auto mode
2.1.111 (April 17, 2026)
- Claude Opus 4.7 xhigh is now available! Use /effort to tune speed vs. intelligence
- Auto mode is now available for Max subscribers when using Opus 4.7
- Added
xhigheffort level for Opus 4.7, sitting betweenhighandmax. Available via/effort,--effort, and the model picker; other models fall back tohigh /effortnow opens an interactive slider when called without arguments, with arrow-key navigation between levels and Enter to confirm- Added "Auto (match terminal)" theme option that matches your terminal's dark/light mode, select it from
/theme - Added
/less-permission-promptsskill, scans transcripts for common read-only Bash and MCP tool calls and proposes a prioritized allowlist for.claude/settings.json - Added
/ultrareviewfor running comprehensive code review in the cloud using parallel multi-agent analysis and critique, invoke with no arguments to review your current branch, or/ultrareview <PR#>to fetch and review a specific GitHub PR - Auto mode no longer requires
--enable-auto-mode - Windows: PowerShell tool is progressively rolling out. Opt in or out with
CLAUDE_CODE_USE_POWERSHELL_TOOL. On Linux and macOS, enable withCLAUDE_CODE_USE_POWERSHELL_TOOL=1(requirespwshon PATH) - Read-only bash commands with glob patterns (e.g.
ls *.ts) and commands starting withcd <project-dir> &&no longer trigger a permission prompt - Suggest the closest matching subcommand when
claude <word>is invoked with a near-miss typo (e.g.claude udpate-> "Did you meanclaude update?") - Plan files are now named after your prompt (e.g.
fix-auth-race-snug-otter.md) instead of purely random words - Improved
/setup-vertexand/setup-bedrockto show the actualsettings.jsonpath whenCLAUDE_CONFIG_DIRis set, seed model candidates from existing pins on re-run, and offer a "with 1M context" option for supported models /skillsmenu now supports sorting by estimated token count, presstto toggleCtrl+Unow clears the entire input buffer (previously: delete to start of line); pressCtrl+Yto restoreCtrl+Lnow forces a full screen redraw in addition to clearing the prompt input- Transcript view footer now shows
[(dump to scrollback) andv(open in editor) shortcuts - The "+N lines" marker for truncated long pastes is now a full-width rule for easier scanning
- Headless
--output-format stream-jsonnow includesplugin_errorson the init event when plugins are demoted for unsatisfied dependencies - Added
OTEL_LOG_RAW_API_BODIESenvironment variable to emit full API request and response bodies as OpenTelemetry log events for debugging - Suppressed spurious decompression, network, and transient error messages that could appear in the TUI during normal operation
- Reverted the v2.1.110 cap on non-streaming fallback retries, it traded long waits for more outright failures during API overload
- Fixed terminal display tearing (random characters, drifting input) in iTerm2 + tmux setups when terminal notifications are sent
- Fixed
@file suggestions re-scanning the entire project on every turn in non-git working directories, and showing only config files in freshly-initialized git repos with no tracked files - Fixed LSP diagnostics from before an edit appearing after it, causing the model to re-read files it just edited
- Fixed tab-completing
/resumeimmediately resuming an arbitrary titled session instead of showing the session picker - Fixed
/contextgrid rendering with extra blank lines between rows - Fixed
/cleardropping the session name set by/rename, causing statusline output to losesession_name - Improved plugin error handling: dependency errors now distinguish conflicting, invalid, and overly complex version requirements; fixed stale resolved versions after
plugin update;plugin installnow recovers from interrupted prior installs - Fixed Claude calling a non-existent
commitskill and showing "Unknown skill: commit" for users without a custom/commitcommand - Fixed 429 rate-limit errors on Bedrock/Vertex/Foundry referencing status.claude.com (it only covers Anthropic-operated providers)
- Fixed feedback surveys appearing back-to-back after dismissing one
- Fixed bare URLs in bash/PowerShell/MCP tool output being unclickable when the terminal wraps them across lines
- Windows:
CLAUDE_ENV_FILEand SessionStart hook environment files now apply (previously a no-op) - Windows: permission rules with drive-letter paths are now correctly root-anchored, and paths differing only by drive-letter case are recognized as the same path
Notes
Retry cap revert
The 2.1.110 non-streaming retry cap lasted one day. 2.1.110 (April 16) introduced a ceiling on how many times the client would retry a non-streaming fallback during API overload. The intent was to prevent multi-minute hangs, but the tradeoff was worse: fewer long waits, more complete failures. If you noticed extra "request failed" errors yesterday, this revert should restore the previous behavior.
Effort level arc
xhigh is the third effort-level adjustment in two weeks. 2.1.94 (April 7) raised the default from medium to high for API-key and enterprise users. Today adds xhigh above high but below max, exclusively for Opus 4.7. The new interactive /effort slider makes it easier to experiment without memorizing level names.
