Ecosystem Impact

Plugins/Skills appeared in 6 of the last 10 releases, reflecting sustained extensibility hardening. This release's hook matcher and consent fixes continue a tightening pattern visible since v2.1.178, suggesting plugin security is a deliberate priority this month.

Background jobs vanish from claude agents after updating Claude Code

Added1 change

•Added CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_MOUSE_CLICKS to disable mouse click/drag/hover in fullscreen mode while keeping wheel scroll

Improved3 changes

•Improved voice mode on Linux: now distinguishes "no microphone" from "SoX not installed" when SoX is present but no audio capture device exists
•Improved claude agents completed list to fill available vertical space; on short terminals the header compacts so live sessions stay visible
•Improved Remote session startup with a provisioning checklist while the container starts

Fixed8 changes

•Fixed hook matchers with hyphenated identifiers (e.g. code-reviewer, mcp__brave-search) accidentally substring-matching — they now exact-match. Use mcp__brave-search__.* to match all tools from a hyphenated MCP server.
•Fixed voice dictation on macOS capturing silence in long-running sessions after the default input device changes
•Fixed voice dictation auto-submit never firing for languages written without spaces (Japanese, Chinese, Thai)
•Fixed external plugins enabled only by project .claude/settings.json not requiring explicit install consent on every loader path
•Fixed /plugin Enable/Disable not working when a plugin's plugin.json name differs from its marketplace entry name
•Fixed background jobs disappearing from claude agents or losing data when written by a newer Claude Code version
•Fixed reopening a crashed background task showing a blank screen for up to 5 seconds instead of its restart
•Fixed background agent daemons running unreachable when the control socket fails to start, blocking restarts
