Story

Claude Code v2.1.51 shipped today with claude remote-control for serving your local environment to external builds, custom npm registry support for plugins with version pinning, and BashTool that skips login shell when shell snapshot is available (faster commands). Tool results now persist to disk at 50K chars (was 100K), directly extending conversation longevity. Security: hook commands now require workspace trust. Action: npm update -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code — the BashTool and disk persistence changes improve daily workflow with zero config.
