Release Notes

- Added Tool(param:value) syntax for permission rules to match a tool's input parameters (with wildcard), e.g. Agent(model:opus) to block Opus subagents - Skills in nested .claude/skills directories now load when working on files there; on a name clash, the nested skill appears as <dir>:<name> so both stay available - Nested .claude/ directories: the agent, workflow, and output-style closest to the working directory now wins when names collide; project-scope workflow saves now target the closest existing .claude/workflows/ - Improved auto mode: subagent spawns are now evaluated by the classifier before launch, closing a gap where a subagent could request a blocked action without review - Improved /doctor with consistent flat tree layout across all sections, clearer section status icons, and highlighted command names - Improved the skill listing truncation warning to show how many skill descriptions are affected - Changed the workflow prompt keyword to use a purple shimmer highlight and trigger only on explicit phrases like "run a workflow" or "workflow:", not on any mention of the word - Improved Remote Control error messages: connection failures now show a persistent red "/rc failed" indicator in the footer, and the "not yet enabled" error now explains whether it's a gate, a check failure, stale entitlement, or org policy - /bug now requires a description before submitting, and no longer uses model-refusal text as the GitHub issue title - Fixed a crash (out-of-memory) when the CLI inherits a stale websocket/OAuth file-descriptor environment variable from a parent process - Fixed Claude in Chrome silently failing to connect when the OAuth token belongs to a different account than the Claude Code login - Fixed nested .claude/skills skills with directory-qualified names being blocked by permission prompts in non-interactive runs - Fixed several subagent issues: viewing a subagent's transcript now shows tool results and live progress, messages sent while it finishes it
