Claude Code v2.1.147–v2.1.150 — May 21–23
v2.1.147 (May 21) renames /simplify to /code-review, adding configurable effort levels (/code-review low|medium|high) and a --comment flag that posts correctness-bug findings directly as inline GitHub PR comments; pinned background sessions (Ctrl+T in claude agents) now persist across idle periods and are restarted in-place when Claude Code self-updates. v2.1.148 (May 22) fixes the critical regression introduced in v2.1.147 that caused the Bash tool to return exit code 127 on every command. v2.1.150 (May 23) contains internal infrastructure work only with no user-facing changes.
Python SDK v0.104.0–v0.104.1 — May 21–22
v0.104.0 (May 21) adds thinking-token-count beta support, enabling real-time streaming of estimated token counts for thinking block deltas. v0.104.1 (May 22) fixes a streaming regression that dropped encrypted_content when passing blocks through the beta compaction accumulator.
Claude Agent SDK (Python) v0.2.84–v0.2.87 — May 21–23
Each version bundles the corresponding Claude CLI release (v2.1.147–v2.1.150); v0.2.87 additionally migrates the SDK's own CI workflows from static long-lived API key secrets to Workload Identity Federation (OIDC) short-lived tokens.
