Claude Code 2.1.280 stops auto-approving writes through symlinks pointing outside the project.

The release fixes writes through a symlinked path being judged by their in-tree spelling, where acceptEdits, allow rules and auto mode could approve a write landing outside the tree. Auto mode also stops retrying forever: one denial when a safety check declines to review, backoff when it returns no answer, turn ends after ten consecutive denials. It also switches Pro and Team Standard defaults from Sonnet to Opus, adds CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_MCP_DESCRIPTION_LENGTH to override the 2,048-character cap, and fixes a finished subagent's report being lost when the parent compacts before reading it.
