CLAUDE CODE 2.1.158 SHIPS WITH AUTO MODE ON BEDROCK AND VERTEX
By RepoJournal · Filed · About Anthropic
Auto mode just landed across three major cloud platforms, and the SDK rolled forward twice in 24 hours to keep pace.
Claude Code shipped v2.1.158 [1] with Auto mode now available on Bedrock, Vertex, and Foundry for Opus 4.7 and Opus 4.8 models, unlocking hands-off code generation for enterprise deployments. The version bump cascaded across the stack: Claude Code Action and Agent SDK both landed 2.1.158 [2] and 2.1.157 [3] releases within hours, with the Python Agent SDK following suit to keep the bundled CLI in sync [4] [5]. Yesterday's 2.1.157 landed a batch of developer quality-of-life wins: plugins in .claude/skills directories now load automatically without marketplace friction [6], a new `claude plugin init <name>` scaffold command cuts setup time, and `/plugin` autocomplete knows your installed plugins and marketplace options. The Agent SDK's settings.json agent field is now honored in dispatched sessions, with --agent override support for fine-grained control.
