Claude Code v2.1.206

Claude Code v2.1.206 was released on July 9, 2026.

Summary

Claude Code 2.1.206 makes pushing code changes faster by automatically allowing git push to your configured remote, and improves the /doctor tool to help keep your CLAUDE.md files lean and focused. We've also squashed numerous bugs affecting login, keyboard input, and MCP serv...

Release Notes

• Added directory path suggestions to /cd, matching /add-dir behavior
• Added a /doctor check that proposes trimming checked-in CLAUDE.md files by cutting content Claude could derive from the codebase
• /commit-push-pr now auto-allows git push to the repo's configured push remote (remote.pushDefault, or the sole remote when only one is configured) in addition to origin
• Gateway: /login now supports Anthropic-operated public gateway endpoints
• EnterWorktree now asks for confirmation before entering a git worktree outside the project's .claude/worktrees/ directory
• Background agents now upgrade to a new version in the background right after a Claude Code update, instead of paying a slow stale-session upgrade when you attach
• Fixed an expired login failing every model with a misleading "There's an issue with the selected model" error instead of prompting to run /login
• Fixed claude --resume and --continue not responding to keyboard input on startup
• Fixed MCP servers configured via --mcp-config or .mcp.json ignoring a per-server requesttimeoutms, which caused long-running MCP tool calls to time out at the 60s default in fresh sessions
• Fixed CLAUDECODEEXTRABODY being silently ignored by claude agents / --bg background workers; the shell-exported override now follows the dispatching session
• Fixed OAuth MCP servers requiring manual re-authentication after a single failed token refresh
• Fixed --permission-prompt-tool pointing at an MCP server crashing with "MCP tool not found" on cold start before the server finishes connecting
• Fixed /model picker rows printing a price for a different model than the row named, and stopped quoting first-party list prices on providers that don't bill them
• Fixed server-provided model rows being misplaced in the /model picker when an entitlement or allowlist restriction drops the row they were positioned against
• Fixed desktop sessions getting stuck showing "running" after a slash command was sent mid-turn
• Fixed keyboard input being ignored in the agents view when a setup prompt appeared before a bare claude --resume on Windows
• Fixed claude rm leaving the removed job in the daemon roster, causing the row to reappear in claude agents
• Fixed /remote-control showing "Unknown command" when logged out — it now explains how to sign in
• Fixed left arrow not stepping back out of a phase or agent in the workflow detail view
• Fixed /status listing the same broken-install warning twice
• Fixed false "disused plugin" tips and skewed disuse telemetry for LSP plugins
• Fixed /doctor's update check to compare Homebrew installs against their cask's channel instead of the settings channel
• Fixed the fullscreen jump-to-bottom pill suggesting Ctrl+End on macOS, not showing rebound chords, and wrapping over the transcript
• Bedrock: fixed a multi-minute startup hang when using an awsCredentialExport helper on networks with restricted egress
• Improved /code-review findings quality on claude-opus-4-8 across all effort levels
• Improved agents view: status column now uses full terminal width instead of truncating at 64 characters
• Changed agents view: Ctrl+X now permanently removes a completed session, and sessions no longer render twice; deleted background jobs stay deleted
