CLAUDE CODE 2.1.169 SHIPS WITH SAFE MODE AND WORKSPACE NAVIGATION

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Anthropic · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

Claude Code's latest release adds troubleshooting tools that let you disable customizations on the fly and move sessions between directories without breaking the prompt cache.

Claude Code v2.1.169 [1] introduces three developer-facing features: a `--safe-mode` flag that disables all customizations (CLAUDE.md, plugins, skills, hooks, MCP servers) for debugging, a `/cd` command to switch working directories mid-session without losing cached context, and a `disableBundledSkills` setting to hide built-in skills from the model. The Agent SDK [2] and claude-code-action [3] both shipped synchronized updates to match, with the Agent SDK now bundling CLI 2.1.169 and the action bumping both Claude Code and Agent SDK to their latest versions [4]. The plugin ecosystem saw five routine dependency bumps across qdrant-skills [5], sentry-cli [6], codspeed [7], expo [8], and oracle-ai-data-platform-workbench-spark-connectors [9], all validated through automated workflows but pending manual review before merge.
