This release introduces persistent configuration settings, allowing user preferences like theme and editor mode to save automatically across sessions and projects with proper override precedence. Key improvements include expanded support for GitLab, Bitbucket, and GitHub Enterprise PR URLs, along with performance enhancements for MCP server reconfiguration and improved user experience for slash commands. A wide array of fixes address critical issues such as multi-line pasting problems, tool availability on macOS/Linux, agent plan mode conflicts, fullscreen scrolling quirks, and various MCP connectivity and configuration challenges. Users will benefit from a more stable, customizable, and efficient development environment.

Changed17
- `/config` settings (theme, editor mode, verbose, etc.) now persist to `~/.claude/settings.json` and participate in project/local/policy override precedence
- `--from-pr` now accepts GitLab merge-request, Bitbucket pull-request, and GitHub Enterprise PR URLs
- `--print` mode now honors the agent's `tools:` and `disallowedTools:` frontmatter, matching interactive-mode behavior
- `--agent <name>` now honors the agent definition's `permissionMode` for built-in agents
- PowerShell tool commands can now be auto-approved in permission mode, matching Bash behavior
- Hooks: `PostToolUse` and `PostToolUseFailure` hook inputs now include `duration_ms` (tool execution time, excluding permission prompts and PreToolUse hooks)
- Subagent and SDK MCP server reconfiguration now connects servers in parallel instead of serially
- Plugins pinned by another plugin's version constraint now auto-update to the highest satisfying git tag
- Vim mode: Esc in INSERT no longer pulls a queued message back into the input; press Esc again to interrupt
- Slash command suggestions now highlight the characters that matched your query

- OpenTelemetry: `tool_result` and `tool_decision` events now include `tool_use_id`; `tool_result` also includes `tool_input_size_bytes`
- Status line: stdin JSON now includes `effort.level` and `thinking.enabled`
- Tool search is now disabled by default on Vertex AI to avoid an unsupported beta header error (opt in with `ENABLE_TOOL_SEARCH`)
- Windows: removed false-positive "Windows requires 'cmd /c' wrapper" MCP config warning
