Full Release Notes


New Features & Practical Usage

v2.1.152 — /code-review —fix, /reload-skills, MessageDisplay Hook (5/27)

v2.1.152 significantly improves the code review workflow and extends the skill management and hook systems.

/code-review --fix — Auto-apply review findings: Running /code-review --fix now automatically applies discovered issues to your working tree after the review completes. It surfaces reuse opportunities, simplifications, and efficiency improvements. /simplify now internally invokes /code-review --fix.

# Review and auto-fix
/code-review --fix

# /simplify now does the same
/simplify

/reload-skills — Rescan without restarting: After installing new skills, run /reload-skills to pick them up immediately. SessionStart hooks can also return reloadSkills: true to make hook-installed skills available in the same session.

disallowed-tools frontmatter: Skills and slash commands can now set disallowed-tools in frontmatter to remove specific tools from the model while the skill is active. Useful for research-only skills that shouldn’t write files.

MessageDisplay hook: A new hook event that lets you transform or hide assistant message text as it’s displayed. Useful for masking sensitive information or custom formatting.

Auto mode no longer requires opt-in: Auto mode no longer prompts for initial consent.

Security Guidance Plugin — Free Real-Time 3-Stage Vulnerability Detection (5/27)

Anthropic released the Security Guidance plugin for Claude Code, free on all plans. It detects vulnerabilities in real time across three stages during coding.

3-Stage Review Process:

  1. On file edits (pattern matching): Instantly detects dangerous constructs like eval(), new Function(), os.system(), child_process.exec(), pickle deserialization, dangerouslySetInnerHTML, and .innerHTML=. No model calls, so zero usage cost.

  2. After model turn (diff analysis): Analyzes the complete git diff to catch authorization bypasses, IDOR, injection flaws, SSRF, and weak cryptography.

  3. On commits/pushes (context validation): Reviews surrounding files, sanitizers, and related code paths to reduce false positives.

Results: Internal testing showed a 30–40% decrease in security-related PR comments. Over 157,000 downloads within the first 24 hours.

Requirements: Claude Code v2.1.144+, Python 3.8+, Git repository

Developer Workflow Tips

Running Claude Code Overnight — What Breaks and How to Fix It

Eva Khmelinskaya shared a practical guide on running Claude Code autonomously overnight, covering real failure points and solutions.

Common failure points:

Practical solutions:

  1. Use /goal: Built-in feature that auto-evaluates goal completion and prevents unnecessary loops
  2. claude --bg + /resume: v2.1.152 now shows background sessions in /resume, so work persists even after closing the terminal
  3. Restrict with --allowedTools: Minimize permitted tools for autonomous runs to prevent unintended changes
  4. Split tasks: Use multiple small background agents instead of one large task

Building an Automated Quality Loop with /code-review —fix

Combine v2.1.152’s /code-review --fix with hooks and the Security Guidance plugin to create a pre-commit quality pipeline:

  1. Complete implementation → run /code-review --fix — auto-fixes reuse, simplification, and efficiency issues
  2. Security Guidance plugin catches vulnerabilities in real time on the modified code
  3. PreCommit hook runs linting and tests automatically

Combined with Nolan Lawson’s multi-model review strategy (covered in previous briefings), this creates a triple verification pipeline: Claude self-review (/code-review --fix) → Security Guidance plugin → external model cross-validation.

Security & Limitations

Security Guidance Plugin — Blocking 25+ Dangerous Patterns in Real Time (5/27)

The Security Guidance plugin (detailed above) covers several OWASP Top 10 categories:

Limitations: Pattern matching is deterministic, but diff analysis and context validation rely on Claude’s reasoning and consume standard usage budget. For security-critical projects, use this plugin as a first line of defense, not a replacement for professional security review.
