Release notes for Claude Code, including new features, improvements, and bug fixes by version. This page is generated from the CHANGELOG.md on GitHub. Run `claude --version` to check your installed version. * `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` values are now included as labels on metric datapoints, so you can slice usage metrics by custom dimensions like team or repo * `claude agents` rows now show `done/total` before the detail when work is fanned out; peek shows the longest-running item * `/mcp` now collapses claude.ai connectors you've never signed in to behind a "Show unused connectors" row * Parallel tool calls: a failed Bash command no longer cancels other calls in the same batch — each tool returns its own result independently * Fullscreen mode: clipboard now uses `wl-copy`/`xclip`/`xsel`…

Usage limit best practices
The number of messages you can send will vary based on your Claude plan. For more information on your plan's usage, refer to the following resources. Additional factors that affect your usage limits include: message length, file attachment size, current conversation length, tool usage (e.g., Research, web search), model choice, effort level, and artifact creation and usage. Our system also includes caching that helps you optimize your limits — content in projects is cached and doesn't count against your limits…
How do usage and length limits work?
When working with Claude, you may encounter two different types of limits that work in distinct ways: usage limits and length limits. Usage limits control how much you can interact with Claude over a specific time period — think of this as your "conversation budget" that determines how many messages you can send, or how long you can work with Claude Code, before needing to wait for your limit to reset. Your usage is affected by conversation length and complexity, the features you use, the model, and the effort level you've selected.
Use Claude Code on the web
Configure cloud environments, setup scripts, network access, and Docker in Anthropic's sandbox. Move sessions between web and terminal with `--remote` and `--teleport`. Claude Code on the web is in research preview for Pro, Max, and Team users, and for Enterprise users with premium seats or Chat + Claude Code seats. It runs tasks on Anthropic-managed cloud infrastructure at claude.ai/code. Sessions persist even if you close your browser, and you can monitor them from the Claude mobile app.
Claude Enterprise activation promo for Claude Code and Cowork
We're issuing $1,000 in usage credits to every user in a Claude Enterprise organization—up to $10M per organization—who activates Claude Code or Claude Cowork for the first time. Credits are issued automatically and are scoped to the activating seat. Available on usage-based Claude Enterprise plans only. The promo isn't available on legacy seat-based Claude Enterprise plans, Team plans, or Pro and Max plans.
Intercept and control agent behavior with hooks
Intercept and customize agent behavior at key execution points with hooks. Hooks are callback functions that run your code in response to agent events, like a tool being called, a session starting, or execution stopping. With hooks, you can block dangerous operations before they execute, log and audit every tool call for compliance, transform inputs and outputs to sanitize data or inject credentials, require human approval for sensitive actions, and track session lifecycle to manage state or send notifications.

Gemini Spark is the most impressive and terrifying AI experience I've had yet
Spark is Google's new agentic answer for everything. According to every product demo from the last four years, planning a trip is a killer use case for AI. So far, I've found this to work only in the most generic ways: if you want to do the six most obvious things in any city, AI has you covered, but that's about as far as it goes. I had a very different experience using Spark, Google's new always-on AI agent. Spark is a hugely ambitious effort.

How small businesses can leverage AI
From accounting to design to market research and product development, there's a staggering breadth of skills needed to run a business. A large company can hire experts; small businesses can't always. That's where AI comes in. The trick for small businesses is to understand where AI is good enough and where it's not. One place where a "good enough" AI can already be quite valuable is in providing secretarial skills and handling basic administrative matters.
