Claude Code update v2.1.162

The latest Claude Code build fixes access control and background process handling. The `claude agents --json` command now shows a `waitingFor` status, letting users see why a session is blocked, such as awaiting permission.
Key changes:
The interface now inserts commands from the autocomplete menu into the input line when clicked, rather than running them immediately. Remote Control is now pinned to the footer.
Fixes address an issue where Claude Code would hang on launch if the config directory was read-only, and WebFetch access rules now take precedence over the preconfigured domain list.
On Windows, the update resolves issues with backslashes in paths and incorrect application of Read deny rules to files in Glob and Grep results.
