Claude Code adds per-loop cost breakdown and a custom model picker
The 2.1.243-245 releases also auto-reconnect dropped MCP servers, add keyless Console sign-in, and fix a startup crash hitting Linux users on new glibc.

Per-loop cost breakdown in /usage
The /usage view now itemizes each loop by run count, total tokens, tokens per run, and last run. You can finally see which recurring loop is quietly draining your token budget instead of guessing.
Curate your own model picker
A new modelPicker setting lets you define a custom model list with your own labels and ordering, so the switcher shows only the models you actually use. Handy if you bounce between Opus 5, a fast model, and a cheap local one.
MCP servers auto-reconnect now
Dropped remote MCP connections reconnect on their own, and OAuth is fixed for servers that send client metadata. Fewer mid-session tool outages when a connector blinks out.
Keyless sign-in for locked-down orgs
Teams that block API-key creation can now sign in to Claude Code through the Claude Console instead of an API key. Restricted orgs can onboard developers without minting keys.
Linux glibc startup crash patched
Version 2.1.245, published early today UTC, fixes a startup crash hitting Linux users on the latest glibc. If Claude Code stopped launching after a system update, upgrading clears it.
