Claude Code released v2.1.282, introducing a `maxProseWidth` setting, improved telemetry notices, and numerous bug fixes across session management, API interactions, and tool usage.
READY TO POST:
claude-code just dropped v2.1.282 with a new max prose width setting for cleaner terminal output. lots of bug fixes too, especially around session history and tools.
new claude-code update (v2.1.282) looks like it's smoothing out a bunch of rough edges, fixing issues with web search decryption and how it handles continued conversations. good for stability.

## What's changed
- Added a `maxProseWidth` setting that caps the width of Claude's prose in wide terminals while tables and code blocks keep the full width
- Added a startup notice, and `/status` and `claude doctor` entries, listing telemetry variables in a project's settings files that were ignored or that turned telemetry off
- Added the `allowClaudeInChromeWithManagedMcp` managed setting to let `claude --chrome` run alongside an exclusive `managed-mcp.json`; the error shown when Chrome is blocked now names it
- Added `store.readiness_grace_seconds` to the Claude apps gateway so `/readyz` can stay ready through a short Postgres outage such as a database failover
- Added a scrollbar to the `/feedback` drafts list in fullscreen mode; it appears while the mouse is over the list
- Fixed every request failing with a 400 error in conversations whose history holds web search results the API cannot decrypt (for example, from a turn answered through a third-party gateway)
- Fixed more cases of continued or resumed sessions (`--continue`, `--resume`) re-sending earlier messages in a changed form, which could make the API drop Claude's earlier reasoning
- Fixed earlier extended thinking being dropped when `/model`, `/rename`, `/artifacts` or another immediate slash command was used while Claude was working
- Fixed continued or resumed conversations losing earlier extended thinking when relaunched with a `--tools` list that leaves out a built-in tool offered earlier in the conversation
- Fixed sessions failing on every turn with an "Invalid `data` in `redacted_thinking` block" API error; Claude Code now drops the conversation's thinking blocks and retries once
- Fixed compaction failing when t
