What's changed

• Added claude mcp login <name> and claude mcp logout <name> to authenticate MCP servers from the CLI without opening the interactive /mcp menu, with --no-browser stdin redirect support for completing over SSH
• Added status filtering (press f) to the /workflows agent detail view
• Added a "Skills" section to the /plugin Installed tab
• Added teammateMode: "iterm2" setting with a warning when auto mode cannot find the it2 CLI
• Added "Claude Platform on AWS - refresh credentials" option to /login when awsAuthRefresh is configured
• ! bash commands now trigger Claude to respond to the output automatically; set "respondToBashCommands": false in settings.json to keep the previous context-only behavior
• Fixed streaming requests failing with "Content block not found" or JSON parse errors after the machine wakes from sleep
• Fixed subagent transcript scroll position bleeding into the main transcript on exit
• Fixed background task previews flashing raw tool names before the agent's plan loaded
• Fixed Chrome tab-group isolation not applying when the in-product permissions gate is off for concurrent CLI sessions
• Fixed background session recaps being duplicated; the agent's own end-of-turn summary now shows as the recap line
• Fixed opening a background session from claude agents leaving the previous screen painted behind it
• Fixed Agent(type) deny rules and Agent(x,y) allowed-types restrictions not being enforced for named subagent spawns
• Fixed Esc and Ctrl+C not responding while background agents are still running after the main turn ends
• Fixed misaligned option numbers in permission prompts when the option text overflows
• Fixed pressing x on a finished subagent in the agent panel not dismissing it
• Fixed a misleading "MCP server disconnected" notice for intentionally retired tools when resuming older sessions
• Fixed /plugin Installed showing a "more above" indicator when already scrolled to the top
• Fixed ~~strikethrough~~ showing literal tildes in assistant messages instead of rendering as strikethrough
• Fixed --tools allowing feature-gated tools to slip through before flags loaded on a cold first launch
• Fixed background job status in claude agents showing a stale "needs input" message after replying
• Fixed a dark-theme flash when opening a background session from claude agents on a light terminal
• Fixed mouse-selected text staying highlighted after deleting it in claude agents
• Fixed session cost not showing for usage-based Enterprise and Team subscribers
• Fixed agent teams: teammates spawned via tmux/pane backends now inherit the leader's --effort level
• Fixed Workflow agent({schema}) subagents looping forever on repeated schema validation failures instead of aborting after 5 attempts
• Improved claude mcp get and claude mcp remove to suggest the closest configured server name on a typo and truncate long server lists
• Improved memory: the agent is now reminded to compact its MEMORY.md index when nearing the size limit
• Improved skill frontmatter: display-name, default-enabled, fallback, and metadata.* keys now accept kebab-case, snake_case, and camelCase
• Improved malformed SKILL.md YAML frontmatter handling: loads the skill body with empty metadata instead of failing silently
• Changed CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_RETRIES to cap at 15; for unattended sessions, use CLAUDE_CODE_RETRY_WATCHDOG instead
• Changed background subagents to surface permission prompts in the main session instead of auto-denying; the dialog shows which agent is asking, and Esc denies just that tool
• Changed /review <pr> to use the same review engine as /code-review medium
