Claude Code adds memory savings, remote control
Anthropic shipped a broad Claude Code update centered on performance, session continuity, and plugin ergonomics. The biggest user-facing changes are up to 80 MB less startup memory on huge repos, `/remote-control` for picking up sessions from the browser or phone, and inline plugin settings.
// ANALYSIS
This is the kind of release that makes an agent feel less like a clever terminal demo and more like software you can trust all day. The flashy features matter, but the quiet reliability fixes are the real adoption unlock.
- –Up to 80 MB less startup memory on 250k-file repos is a meaningful win for giant monorepos and memory-constrained laptops.
- –`/remote-control` expands Claude Code beyond the terminal, making it easier to steer ongoing work from a browser or phone.
- –Inline plugin settings and `--channels` for MCP push messages make the extensibility story feel more native and less bolted on.
- –The resume, voice mode, proxy/API, and startup-settings fixes are the kind of hardening that matters once a tool becomes part of a daily workflow.
