Claude Code 2.1.122 tightens rails, adds Bedrock controls
Claude Code 2.1.122 ships 18 CLI changes and two system prompt updates, centered on stricter consent for risky actions, a new ANTHROPIC_BEDROCK_SERVICE_TIER env var, and a new OpenTelemetry claude_code.at_mention event.
Hot take: this is a governance release more than a feature release, and that is probably the right tradeoff for an agentic CLI.
- –The strongest user-facing change is the stricter consent gate around risky actions, which should reduce accidental destructive behavior.
- –`ANTHROPIC_BEDROCK_SERVICE_TIER` gives AWS users a clearer way to tune for default, flex, or priority service tiers.
- –The prompt changes suggest Anthropic is pushing more policy into product behavior instead of relying on long static instructions.
- –The new telemetry event is small but useful for operators who want better visibility into mentions and agent activity.
- –The env-var churn around cowork and memory features points to ongoing iteration on how Claude Code stores and uses context.
