Claude Code 2.1.116 speeds up sessions

Claude Code 2.1.116 is a high-impact "polish and power" update that makes the agent significantly more viable for large-scale enterprise codebases.

• –Faster /resume (up to 67%) on 40MB+ sessions directly addresses the primary performance bottleneck for developers working on monolithic or high-activity repositories.
• –Sandbox security hardening ensures the agent no longer bypasses danger checks for 'rm' on critical directories like / or $HOME, reflecting Anthropic's commitment to safety in autonomous workflows.
• –UI refinements including inline thinking progress and deferred MCP loading reduce terminal jitter and startup latency for a snappier developer experience.
• –Fixes for Indic script rendering and Kitty keyboard protocol support expand accessibility and reliability across diverse terminal environments.
