Tools official 2 src. ~1 min

Following v2.1.222's worktree-isolation and hook-bypass fixes reported yesterday, Anthropic shipped v2.1.223, closing a Bash permission-check bypass reachable via crafted/padded commands and a bypassPermissions policy gap. The release also merges /review into /code-review and changes auto-compaction to reliably hold 1M-context models to a 200K window.

Why it matters

Closes a real permission-check bypass rather than just adding features, which matters for anyone running Claude Code with elevated or auto-approved permissions.

Importance: 2/5

Follow-up patch closing a real security gap, continuing yesterday's worktree-isolation fixes.
