Overlapping VS Code extension writes were leaving ~/.claude/settings.json unparseable
v2.1.274 fixes the Claude Code VS Code extension corrupting `~/.claude/settings.json` when two of its own settings writes overlapped, leaving the file unparseable or silently dropping a setting. The same release also stops `installed_plugins.json` being rewritten on nearly every startup when plugin policy comes from remote managed settings, which had been forcing Claude Desktop to reload every open session's plugins, and fixes a plugin loaded from a `.zip` being served from a stale extraction after several overlapping reloads.
