Claude Code v2.1.252 (Aug 31) is a bugfix release: fixes Bash commands failing with "task output swap refused (tasks dir moved or linked)" on some Macs, "always allow" not saving in projects lacking a settings.local.json, Remote Control sessions (hosted by Claude Desktop or VS Code) stalling for minutes after a tool finished on degraded claude.ai connections, and oversized background-task failure notifications exceeding API request limits.
