Claude Code v2.1.149 released

The update revamps the /usage command to show a detailed breakdown of limits by category: spend is now allocated across skills, subagents, plugins, and individual MCP servers. This simplifies budget control on complex tasks.
The release also closes a PowerShell vulnerability allowing stealth directory traversal. A critical Bash find utility bug that caused host crashes on macOS with large directory trees is fixed.
Additionally, the team improved keyboard navigation in /diff, added Markdown checkbox support, and resolved terminal freezing on config approval.
