Claude Code 2.1.137 restores Windows extension activation

This patch is narrowly scoped but high impact: it fixes the VS Code extension failing to activate on Windows, restoring startup and IDE access for affected users. For anyone depending on Claude Code inside VS Code on Windows, this is the difference between a working integration and a dead one.

// ANALYSIS

Small release, big unblock. When an AI coding extension fails to activate, the whole workflow is effectively broken, so this is the kind of maintenance fix that matters more than its changelog length suggests.

  • Fixes a Windows-specific activation failure in the VS Code extension, which is a hard blocker rather than a cosmetic bug
  • Helps stabilize Claude Code’s IDE story on Windows, where platform regressions can quickly erode trust
  • Suggests Anthropic is still tightening cross-platform reliability as the product’s surface area expands
  • More evidence that AI coding tools now live or die on boring operational details, not just model quality
