Claude Code 2.1.317 was published to npm on November 2 at 23:57 UTC (6:57 PM ET), with the GitHub release about 90 minutes later.
The change we'd look at first: Agent SDK hook callbacks now accept onFailure: "block". Before this, a callback that failed let the action run. With the new setting, a broken callback stops it instead. A second safety change asks before a web or shell tool call sends your account email address to the network, and /schedule now warns when a new cloud scheduled task picks up connectors you didn't ask for, with steps to remove them.
For teams on the Claude apps gateway, there's a cost report at GET /v1/organizations/analytics/cost, with totals per developer, per day or per IdP group over a date range.
Two behavior changes could show up in your sessions. Subagents and teammates on a different model from the main conversation now use that model's saved effort level (or its default) instead of the session's. And the Read tool no longer returns a short "file unchanged since your last Read" stub: reading an unchanged file again returns its full content.
Among the fixes: claude -p used to exit 0 when a full disk or quota lost its transcript writes, and now prints an error and exits 1. claude auth status no longer exits before a slow token refresh is saved, which could sign you out on the next run.
