Claude Code 2.1.126 fixes login blockers

Claude Code 2.1.126 is a stability-focused release centered on authentication and session resilience. The biggest user-facing change lets claude auth login accept a pasted OAuth code directly in the terminal when a browser callback cannot reach localhost, which helps remote, SSH, WSL2, and containerized setups.

// ANALYSIS

Hot take: this is a boring-looking update that removes exactly the kind of friction that makes terminal agents feel unreliable in real-world setups.

–The pasted OAuth fallback is the headline fix because it unblocks constrained environments where browser callbacks are brittle.
–Session recovery improvements matter more than they sound; reconnect and sleep failures are the kind of bugs that break trust in long-running agent workflows.
–The managed-settings and permission-bypass changes are operationally important for teams, not just individual users.
–The release is less about new capability and more about making Claude Code dependable enough for remote and container-first workflows.
