Claude Code v2.1.317
Claude Code v2.1.317 adds a warning when a cloud scheduled task picks up connectors you didn't ask for, a prompt before tool calls send your account email to the network, and a cost report endpoint for the Claude apps gateway admin API, plus dozens of fixes.
Why it matters
For developers and admins running Anthropic's Claude Code agent. It tightens a few privacy and permission gaps in scheduled and tool-driven work, and gives gateway admins a way to read past spend per developer, day or group.
What's new
- /schedule now warns when a new cloud scheduled task gets connectors you did not request and explains how to remove them.
- Claude Code now asks before a web or shell tool call sends your account email address over the network.
- Agent SDK hook callbacks accept onFailure: "block", so a failing callback stops the action instead of letting it run.
- Claude apps gateway admin API adds GET /v1/organizations/analytics/cost for past spend over a date range, in total or per developer, per day or per IdP group.
- Fixes include project and local MCP servers disconnecting after the first turn in some desktop sessions, claude auth status exiting before a slow token refresh saved, and claude -p exiting 0 when a full disk lost its transcript (it now exits 1).
Taken from the project's own release notes. Claims about speed or accuracy are the maker's unless stated otherwise.
Worth knowing: The new cost report and IdP group records only apply to Claude apps gateways with admin settings enabled; group records are kept for the admin.identity_retention_days period.
