Claude Code Patches

Enhance Claude Code with custom patches for thinking display, background command notification formatting, Task Output waiting-format cleanup, and subagent model configuration.

Available Patches

  1. Thinking Display Patch - Make thinking blocks visible by default
  2. Background Command Format Patch - Remove embedded raw commands from background completion notifications
  3. Task Output Waiting Format Patch - Remove huge multiline task descriptions from Task Output ... Waiting for task
  4. Subagent Model Configuration - Configure which models subagents use
  5. NPM Deprecation Warning Patch - Remove the “switched from npm to native installer” banner

Thinking Display Patch

Make Claude Code's thinking blocks visible by default without pressing ctrl+o.

The Problem

Claude Code collapses (or hides) thinking by default. In v2.0.74+ (including 2.1.1) you may see a collapsed banner like:

∴ Thinking (ctrl+o to expand)

And the spinner/status line may show timing hints like thinking / thought for 1s (this is separate UI from the thinking block).

You have to press ctrl+o every time to see the actual thinking content. This patch makes thinking blocks visible inline automatically.

Note: This patch does not change the spinner/status line (e.g. thought for 1s) text or position — it only affects whether the message thinking content is rendered inline.

Research notes:

npm availability note (updated 2026-07-08): @anthropic-ai/claude-code@2.1.43, 2.1.46, 2.1.57, 2.1.60, 2.1.65, 2.1.102, 2.1.103, 2.1.106, 2.1.130, 2.1.155, 2.1.164, 2.1.171, 2.1.180, 2.1.184, 2.1.188, 2.1.189, 2.1.192, and 2.1.194 are not published on npm (ETARGET/E404). 2.1.154, 2.1.156, 2.1.157, 2.1.158, 2.1.160 through 2.1.163, 2.1.165 through 2.1.170, 2.1.172 through 2.1.179, 2.1.181, 2.1.182, 2.1.183, 2.1.185, 2.1.186, 2.1.187, 2.1.190, 2.1.191, 2.1.193, 2.1.195, 2.1.196, 2.1.197, 2.1.198, 2.1.199, 2.1.200, 2.1.201, 2.1.202, 2.1.203, and 2.1.204 are published and were re-verified. @anthropic-ai/claude-code-linux-x64@2.1.156 returned ETARGET during earlier research, while @anthropic-ai/claude-code-darwin-arm64@2.1.156 was published and verified. For 2.1.157, 2.1.158, 2.1.160 through 2.1.163, 2.1.165 through 2.1.170, 2.1.172 through 2.1.179, 2.1.181, 2.1.182, 2.1.183, 2.1.185, 2.1.186, 2.1.187, 2.1.190, 2.1.191, 2.1.193, 2.1.195, 2.1.196, 2.1.197, 2.1.198, 2.1.199, 2.1.200, 2.1.201, 2.1.202, 2.1.203, and 2.1.204, both @anthropic-ai/claude-code-darwin-arm64 and @anthropic-ai/claude-code-linux-x64 are published and were dry-run verified.

patch-thinking.js now also registers 2.1.154 through 2.1.158, plus 2.1.160 through 2.1.163, 2.1.165 through 2.1.170, 2.1.172 through 2.1.179, 2.1.181, 2.1.182, 2.1.183, 2.1.185, 2.1.186, 2.1.187, 2.1.190, 2.1.191, 2.1.193, 2.1.195, 2.1.196, 2.1.197, 2.1.198, 2.1.199, 2.1.200, 2.1.201, 2.1.202, 2.1.203, and 2.1.204, for native/binary targets. 2.1.165 reuses the same tweakcc-style memoized call-site regex family as 2.1.163; 2.1.166 through 2.1.170, 2.1.172 through 2.1.179, 2.1.181, 2.1.182, 2.1.183, 2.1.185, 2.1.186, 2.1.187, 2.1.190, 2.1.191, 2.1.193, 2.1.195, 2.1.196, 2.1.197, 2.1.198, 2.1.199, 2.1.200, 2.1.201, 2.1.202, 2.1.203, and 2.1.204 use the newer memoized call-site shape where hideInTranscript is no longer passed, so the patch removes the gates and forces isTranscriptMode:!0 without trying to patch hideInTranscript. 2.1.203 and 2.1.204 keep the same props but emit the early return as if(...){return null}, so the regex family accepts both braced and unbraced gate forms. 2.1.186 and later published versions use jsx(...)/jsxs(...) at the relevant React call sites, so the regex family accepts createElement, jsx, and jsxs. Starting in 2.1.113, the npm package is a wrapper whose postinstall copies or hardlinks the platform native binary into bin/claude.exe, so the patchers also auto-detect that npm/local binary path. 2.1.154, 2.1.156, 2.1.157, 2.1.158, 2.1.160 through 2.1.163, 2.1.165 through 2.1.170, 2.1.172 through 2.1.179, 2.1.181, 2.1.182, 2.1.183, 2.1.185, 2.1.186, 2.1.187, 2.1.190, 2.1.191, 2.1.193, 2.1.195, 2.1.196, 2.1.197, 2.1.198, 2.1.199, 2.1.200, 2.1.201, 2.1.202, 2.1.203, and 2.1.204 were verified on darwin-arm64 native binaries, linux-x64 native binaries, and npm-wrapper postinstall-equivalent targets. 2.1.155 remains inferred support only because Anthropic did not publish npm tarballs for direct validation; 2.1.164, 2.1.171, 2.1.180, 2.1.184, 2.1.188, 2.1.189, 2.1.192, and 2.1.194 are not registered because no npm wrapper/native tarballs are published.

Quick Start

One-liner (via curl)

No need to clone the repository — run patches directly:

# Thinking display patch
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cnzgray/claude-code-patches/main/patch-thinking.js | node

# NPM deprecation warning patch
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cnzgray/claude-code-patches/main/patch-npm-deprecation-warning.js | node

# Background command format patch
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cnzgray/claude-code-patches/main/patch-background-command-format.js | node

# Task Output waiting format patch
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cnzgray/claude-code-patches/main/patch-task-output-format.js | node

# Subagent model configuration patch (create ~/.claude/subagent-models.json first)
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cnzgray/claude-code-patches/main/patch-subagent-models.js | node

If you need --dry-run, --restore or other options, download the script first:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cnzgray/claude-code-patches/main/patch-thinking.js -o /tmp/patch-thinking.js
node /tmp/patch-thinking.js --dry-run
node /tmp/patch-thinking.js --restore

Clone and run

# Clone this repository
git clone https://github.com/cnzgray/claude-code-patches.git
cd claude-code-patches

# Run the patch script (automatically detects your installation)
node patch-thinking.js

# Restart Claude Code

That's it! Thinking blocks now display inline without ctrl+o.

Works with:

  • ✅ Local installations (~/.claude/local)
  • ✅ Global npm installations (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code)
  • ✅ Native/binary installations (~/.local/bin/claude, ~/.local/share/claude/versions/*)
  • ✅ All Node version managers (NVM, nodenv, asdf, etc.)

macOS note (native/binary installs): The native claude binary is code-signed. After patching, it must be re-signed (ad-hoc) or macOS may kill it on launch. The patch script handles this automatically; if needed you can run codesign --force --deep --sign - /path/to/claude yourself.


NPM Deprecation Warning Patch

If your npm-installed Claude Code shows a banner like:

Claude Code has switched from npm to native installer. Run `claude install` ...

You can remove just that notification (without affecting other UI) by patching the compiled cli.js:

node patch-npm-deprecation-warning.js

Also supports native/binary installs: patch the claude binary in-place (macOS may require re-signing; this script attempts ad-hoc re-sign automatically).

Re-verified on 2.1.69 / 2.1.70 / 2.1.71 / 2.1.72 / 2.1.73 / 2.1.74 / 2.1.75 / 2.1.76 / 2.1.77 / 2.1.78 / 2.1.79 / 2.1.80 / 2.1.83 / 2.1.84 / 2.1.85 / 2.1.86 / 2.1.87 / 2.1.88 / 2.1.89 / 2.1.90 / 2.1.91 / 2.1.92 / 2.1.94 / 2.1.96 / 2.1.97 / 2.1.98 / 2.1.101 / 2.1.104 / 2.1.105 / 2.1.107 / 2.1.108 / 2.1.109 / 2.1.110 / 2.1.111 / 2.1.112 / 2.1.113 / 2.1.114 / 2.1.116 / 2.1.117 / 2.1.118 / 2.1.119 / 2.1.120 / 2.1.121 / 2.1.122 / 2.1.123 / 2.1.126 / 2.1.128 / 2.1.129 / 2.1.131 / 2.1.132 / 2.1.133 / 2.1.136 / 2.1.137 / 2.1.138 / 2.1.139 / 2.1.140 / 2.1.141 / 2.1.142 / 2.1.143 / 2.1.144 / 2.1.145 / 2.1.146 / 2.1.147 / 2.1.148 / 2.1.149 / 2.1.150 / 2.1.152 / 2.1.153 / 2.1.154 / 2.1.156 / 2.1.157 / 2.1.158 / 2.1.160 / 2.1.161 / 2.1.162 / 2.1.163 / 2.1.165 / 2.1.166 / 2.1.167 / 2.1.168 / 2.1.169 / 2.1.170 / 2.1.172 / 2.1.173 / 2.1.174 / 2.1.175 / 2.1.176 / 2.1.177 / 2.1.178 / 2.1.179 / 2.1.181 / 2.1.182 / 2.1.183 / 2.1.185 / 2.1.186 / 2.1.187 / 2.1.190 / 2.1.191 / 2.1.193 / 2.1.195 / 2.1.196 / 2.1.197 / 2.1.198 / 2.1.199 / 2.1.200 / 2.1.201 / 2.1.202 / 2.1.203 / 2.1.204: through 2.1.161, the npm/native build used key:"npm-deprecation-warning", so the existing patch strategy stayed valid. In 2.1.162, 2.1.163, 2.1.165 through 2.1.170, 2.1.172 through 2.1.179, 2.1.181, 2.1.182, 2.1.183, 2.1.185, 2.1.186, 2.1.187, 2.1.190, 2.1.191, 2.1.193, 2.1.195, 2.1.196, 2.1.197, 2.1.198, 2.1.199, 2.1.200, 2.1.201, 2.1.202, 2.1.203, and 2.1.204, that warning is already absent from the npm-wrapper/native targets; the patcher therefore returns Already patched (npm deprecation warning not found). 2.1.184, 2.1.188, 2.1.189, 2.1.192, and 2.1.194 were not published on npm at verification time.

Options:

  • --dry-run preview changes
  • --restore restore from cli.js.backup
  • --file /path/to/cli.js patch a specific file

What This Patch Does

Before (e.g. v2.0.74+):

∴ Thinking (ctrl+o to expand)
[thinking content collapsed]

After:

∴ Thinking…

  [thinking content displayed inline]
  The actual thinking process is now visible
  without any keyboard shortcuts needed

How It Works

This patch modifies Claude Code's compiled JavaScript (the exact hook point depends on version):

Patch 1: Remove the Banner (v2.0.30)

Before:

function GkQ({streamMode:A}){
  // ... displays "Thought for Xs (ctrl+o to show thinking)"
}

After:

function GkQ({streamMode:A}){return null}

Effect: Removes the collapsed thinking banner entirely.

Patch 2b: Force Thinking Visibility (v2.0.74 / v2.0.75 / v2.0.76)

In v2.0.74 / v2.0.75 / v2.0.76 thinking visibility is controlled in two places:

  1. The message renderer call site can short-circuit and hide thinking unless transcript mode / verbose is enabled.
  2. The thinking renderer (co2 in 2.0.74/2.0.75, lo2 in 2.0.76) can render a collapsed banner instead of the full thinking content.

This patcher updates both so thinking renders inline by default (no ctrl+o needed).

1) Call Site: Remove the Gate

Before:

case"thinking":if(!D&&!Z)return null;
return J5.createElement(co2,{addMargin:Q,param:A,isTranscriptMode:D,verbose:Z});

After:

case"thinking":
return J5.createElement(co2,{addMargin:Q,param:A,isTranscriptMode:!0,verbose:Z});

2) Renderer: Always Render Expanded Thinking

Before:

function co2({param:{thinking:A},addMargin:Q=!1,isTranscriptMode:B,verbose:G}){
  if(!A)return null;
  if(!(B||G))return ... "∴ Thinking (ctrl+o to expand)";
  return ... "∴ Thinking…" + thinking text ...
}

After:

function co2({param:{thinking:A},addMargin:Q=!1,isTranscriptMode:B,verbose:G}){
  if(!A)return null;
  return ... "∴ Thinking…" + thinking text ...
}

Effect: Removes the collapsed banner branch and always renders the full thinking content inline.

Patch 2e: Force Thinking Visibility (v2.1.1)

In v2.1.1 thinking visibility is still controlled in two places, but with slightly different logic:

  1. The message renderer call site still short-circuits and hides thinking unless transcript mode / verbose is enabled.
  2. The thinking renderer (NbA) now has two hiding branches:
    • a transcript hide gate (hideInTranscript)
    • the collapsed banner branch (∴ Thinking (ctrl+o to expand))

The patcher updates both so thinking renders inline by default (no ctrl+o needed).

Patch 2f: Force Thinking Visibility (v2.1.2)

In v2.1.2 the overall structure is the same as v2.1.1 (call-site gate + thinking renderer gate), but the compiled identifiers changed:

  1. The message renderer call site still short-circuits unless transcript mode / verbose is enabled.
  2. The thinking renderer is now ybA and still includes both:
    • a transcript hide gate (hideInTranscript)
    • the collapsed banner branch (∴ Thinking (ctrl+o to expand))

The patcher updates both so thinking renders inline by default (no ctrl+o needed).

Installation

Prerequisites

  • Claude Code installed (tested: 2.0.62 / 2.0.71 / 2.0.74 / 2.0.75 / 2.0.76 / 2.1.1)
  • Node.js (comes with Claude Code installation)

Install Steps

  1. Download the patcher:

    # Clone this repository
    git clone <repository-url>
    cd claude-code-thinking
  2. Run the patcher:

    node patch-thinking.js
  3. Restart Claude Code for changes to take effect.

Command-Line Options

The script supports several options:

# Apply patches (default)
node patch-thinking.js

# Preview changes without applying
node patch-thinking.js --dry-run

# Restore original behavior from backup
node patch-thinking.js --restore

# Patch a specific cli.js file or native claude binary (skip auto-detection)
node patch-thinking.js --file /path/to/cli.js
node patch-thinking.js --file /path/to/claude

# Show help
node patch-thinking.js --help

Installation Detection

The script automatically detects Claude Code installations using a robust 5-tier detection strategy:

You can also skip auto-detection:

  • --file /path/to/cli.js
  • or set CLAUDE_CODE_CLI_PATH=/path/to/cli.js (both also accept a native claude binary path)

Detection Methods (Priority Order)

  1. Local Installations (Priority 1)

    • ~/.claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js
    • ~/.config/claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js
  2. Global npm Installation (Priority 2)

    • Dynamically detected via npm root -g
    • Works with all Node version managers (NVM, nodenv, asdf, nvm-windows)
    • Automatically resolves symlinks
  3. Derived from Node.js Binary (Priority 3)

    • Falls back to process.execPath derivation
    • Works when npm command is unavailable
  4. Unix Binary Location (Priority 4)

    • Uses which claude on macOS/Linux
    • Traces binary back to installation directory
  5. Native/Binary Installation (Priority 5)

    • Detects the official native/binary installer layout
    • ~/.local/bin/claude
    • ~/.local/share/claude/versions/*

Key Features

  • Works with any Node version - No hardcoded paths
  • Supports all version managers - NVM, nodenv, asdf, etc.
  • Cross-platform - macOS, Linux, Windows
  • Automatic symlink resolution - Handles npm global symlinks
  • Comprehensive error messages - Shows all attempted paths

Backup Created:

  • cli.js.backup (in the same directory as cli.js)

Important: After Claude Code Updates

When you run claude update, the patches will be overwritten. You must re-apply them:

cd claude-code-thinking
node patch-thinking.js
# Restart Claude Code

The patch script automatically:

  • Detects your Claude Code installation
  • Creates a backup before patching (if it doesn't exist)
  • Applies both patches atomically
  • Reports success or failure
  • Safe to run multiple times

Rollback

To restore the original behavior:

Option 1: Using the script

node patch-thinking.js --restore

Option 2: Manual restore

# The backup is created in the same directory as cli.js
cp ~/.claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js.backup \
   ~/.claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js

Then restart Claude Code.

Verification

Check if patches are applied:

Troubleshooting

"Could not find Claude Code installation"

Cause: The script cannot locate your Claude Code installation.

The script will display all attempted detection methods and paths, for example:

❌ Error: Could not find Claude Code installation

Searched using the following methods:

  [local installation]
    - ~/.claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js
    - ~/.config/claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js
  [npm root -g]
    - /opt/homebrew/lib/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js
  [derived from process.execPath]
    - /opt/homebrew/bin/../lib/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js
  [which claude]
    - /opt/homebrew/bin/../lib/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js
  [native/binary default paths]
    - ~/.local/bin/claude
    - ~/.local/share/claude/versions/*

💡 Troubleshooting:
  1. Verify Claude Code is installed: claude --version
  2. For local install: Check ~/.claude/local or ~/.config/claude/local
  3. For global install: Ensure "npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code" succeeded
  4. Check that npm is in your PATH if using global install
  5. For native/binary install: Check ~/.local/bin/claude and ~/.local/share/claude/versions

Solutions:

  1. Verify installation: Run claude --version to confirm Claude Code is installed
  2. For local installations: Check that cli.js exists in ~/.claude/local or ~/.config/claude/local
  3. For global installations:
    • Ensure npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code completed successfully
    • Verify npm is in your PATH: npm --version
    • If using NVM: Ensure you've activated the correct Node version
  4. Check file permissions: Ensure the script has read access to the installation directory
  5. For native/binary installations: Ensure ~/.local/bin is on your PATH, or run with --file ~/.local/bin/claude

"Pattern not found"

Cause: This means:

  1. Claude Code has been updated to a newer version
  2. The patches are already applied
  3. The file structure has changed

Solution:

  1. Run node patch-thinking.js --dry-run to check status
  2. If already applied, you're good!
  3. If version changed, the patterns may need updating for the new version

Thinking Still Collapsed After Patching

Solution: You must restart Claude Code for changes to take effect.

Backup File Missing

The patch script creates a backup automatically on first run. The --restore command will fail if the backup doesn't exist.

Cross-Platform Support

The script works on:

  • macOS ✅ Full support (all 4 detection methods)
  • Linux ✅ Full support (all 4 detection methods)
  • Windows ✅ Supported (3 detection methods - excludes which claude)

Platform-Specific Notes

macOS & Linux:

  • All 4 detection methods available
  • Includes which claude binary resolution
  • Automatic symlink resolution for Homebrew, NVM, etc.

Windows:

  • Uses first 3 detection methods
  • Works with nvm-windows and system Node
  • Skips Unix-specific which command

Path detection is fully automatic using Node.js built-in modules.

Version Manager Support

The script automatically works with all Node.js version managers:

Version Manager Support Notes
NVM (Node Version Manager) ✅ Full Detects via npm root -g
nodenv ✅ Full Detects via process.execPath
asdf ✅ Full Detects via npm root -g
nvm-windows ✅ Full Works with all 3 Windows methods
System Node ✅ Full Standard installation detection
Homebrew (macOS) ✅ Full Symlink resolution included

How it works:

  • npm root -g dynamically finds the global node_modules directory regardless of version manager
  • process.execPath derives the path from the current Node.js binary location
  • No hardcoded paths means it works with any Node setup

Technical Details

File Structure

  • cli.js: ~3,600+ lines, ~9+ MB (heavily minified)
  • Version: Claude Code 2.0.46
  • Patches: Non-invasive, minimal changes

Installation Detection System

The patcher uses a sophisticated detection system with multiple fallback methods:

// Priority 1: Local installations
~/.claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js
~/.config/claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js

// Priority 2: Global npm (dynamic)
$(npm root -g)/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js

// Priority 3: Derived from Node binary
$(dirname process.execPath)/../lib/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js

// Priority 4: Unix binary resolution
$(which claude)  resolve symlinks  find cli.js

Key implementation details:

  • Uses child_process.execSync() with proper error handling
  • Automatically resolves symlinks via fs.realpathSync()
  • Tracks all attempted paths for detailed error reporting
  • Cross-platform compatible (Windows, macOS, Linux)

Why Two Patches?

  1. ZT2 Function: Controls the UI banner shown after thinking completes
  2. Thinking Renderer: Controls whether the actual thinking text is displayed

Both must be patched because they're separate systems:

  • Patching only ZT2 → Blank line appears where thinking should be
  • Patching only the renderer → Banner still shows "ctrl+o to show"

Pattern Evolution Across Versions

The minified code patterns change with each Claude Code update:

Version Banner Function Component Variables

2.0.59 DO2 F89 K,G check
2.0.61 RR2 T69 F,G check
2.0.62 ZT2 X59 F,G check

When Claude Code updates, function names and component identifiers are regenerated during minification. In some cases (like v2.0.29), the patterns remain unchanged.

Limitations

  1. Breaks on updates: Must re-run after claude update
  2. Minified code: Fragile, patterns may change with version updates
  3. No official config: This is a workaround until Anthropic adds a native setting
  4. Version-specific: Patterns are specific to v2.0.62

Feature Request

Consider requesting this as an official feature from Anthropic:

  • Configuration option to always show thinking
  • User preference in settings (~/.claude/config.json)
  • Toggle command like /thinking show or /thinking hide
  • Environment variable like CLAUDE_SHOW_THINKING=true

Submit feedback: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues

Contributing

If Claude Code updates and the patches stop working:

  1. Locate the new patterns in cli.js:

    • Search for the thinking banner function (look for "Thought for" text)
    • Search for ∴ Thinking (ctrl+o to expand) to find the collapsed thinking renderer branch
    • Search for case"thinking" to find the visibility check
  2. Update the script with new patterns

  3. Test thoroughly before committing

  4. Update this README with the new version information

Pull requests welcome!


Background Command Format Patch

If Claude Code shows a completion notification like:

Background command "...very long multi-line command..." completed (exit code 0)

and the embedded command becomes extremely long, you can patch Claude Code so the completion notification no longer embeds the raw command text.

Apply the patch:

node patch-background-command-format.js

Re-verified on 2.1.76 / 2.1.77 / 2.1.78 / 2.1.79 / 2.1.80 / 2.1.83 / 2.1.84 / 2.1.85 / 2.1.86 / 2.1.87 / 2.1.88 / 2.1.89 / 2.1.90 / 2.1.91 / 2.1.92 / 2.1.94 / 2.1.96 / 2.1.97 / 2.1.98 / 2.1.101 / 2.1.104 / 2.1.105 / 2.1.107 / 2.1.108 / 2.1.109 / 2.1.110 / 2.1.111 / 2.1.112 / 2.1.113 / 2.1.114 / 2.1.116 / 2.1.117 / 2.1.118 / 2.1.119 / 2.1.120 / 2.1.121 / 2.1.122 / 2.1.123 / 2.1.126 / 2.1.128 / 2.1.129 / 2.1.131 / 2.1.132 / 2.1.133 / 2.1.136 / 2.1.137 / 2.1.138 / 2.1.139 / 2.1.140 / 2.1.141 / 2.1.142 / 2.1.143 / 2.1.144 / 2.1.145 / 2.1.146 / 2.1.147 / 2.1.148 / 2.1.149 / 2.1.150 / 2.1.152 / 2.1.153 / 2.1.154 / 2.1.156 / 2.1.157 / 2.1.158 / 2.1.160 / 2.1.161 / 2.1.162 / 2.1.163 / 2.1.165 / 2.1.166 / 2.1.167 / 2.1.168 / 2.1.169 / 2.1.170 / 2.1.172 / 2.1.173 / 2.1.174 / 2.1.175 / 2.1.176 / 2.1.177 / 2.1.178 / 2.1.179 / 2.1.181 / 2.1.182 / 2.1.183 / 2.1.185 / 2.1.186 / 2.1.187 / 2.1.190 / 2.1.191 / 2.1.193 / 2.1.195 / 2.1.196 / 2.1.197 / 2.1.198 / 2.1.199 / 2.1.200 / 2.1.201 / 2.1.202 / 2.1.203 / 2.1.204: the notification builder still emits the same three completion states (completed / failed / was stopped), but 2.1.77+ now constructs the shared Background command prefix via a minified variable before interpolating the raw command. The patch script handles both the old direct-string form and the newer prefix-variable form, for both npm and native installs, and patches duplicate embedded native bundles in one run. 2.1.184, 2.1.188, 2.1.189, 2.1.192, and 2.1.194 were not published on npm at verification time.

Options:

  • --dry-run preview changes without applying them
  • --restore restore from cli.js.backup
  • --file /path/to/cli.js patch a specific file

Current behavior after patching:

  • removes the embedded raw command from the completion notification
  • keeps the completion status such as completed (exit code 0)
  • avoids huge multi-line notifications entirely

Supports:

  • npm/local installs with patchable cli.js
  • native/binary installs via length-preserving in-place patching

macOS note for native installs:

  • patched native binaries may need ad-hoc codesign; the script attempts this automatically

Task Output Waiting Format Patch

If Claude Code shows a waiting block like:

Task Output abc123
  codeagent-wrapper --agent ... <<'EOF'
  ... many lines ...
  EOF
     Waiting for task (esc to give additional instructions)

the long multiline command is not the final task output. It is the task description rendered by the Task Output tool while it waits.

Apply the patch:

node patch-task-output-format.js

Re-verified on 2.1.80 / 2.1.83 / 2.1.84 / 2.1.85 / 2.1.86 / 2.1.87 / 2.1.88 / 2.1.89 / 2.1.90 / 2.1.91 / 2.1.92 / 2.1.94 / 2.1.96 / 2.1.97 / 2.1.98 / 2.1.101 / 2.1.104 / 2.1.105 / 2.1.107 / 2.1.108 / 2.1.109 / 2.1.110 / 2.1.111 / 2.1.112 / 2.1.113 / 2.1.114 / 2.1.116 / 2.1.117 / 2.1.118 / 2.1.119 / 2.1.120 / 2.1.121 / 2.1.122 / 2.1.123 / 2.1.126 / 2.1.128 / 2.1.129 / 2.1.131 / 2.1.132 / 2.1.133 / 2.1.136 / 2.1.137 / 2.1.138 / 2.1.139 / 2.1.140 / 2.1.141 / 2.1.142 / 2.1.143 / 2.1.144 / 2.1.145 / 2.1.146 / 2.1.147 / 2.1.148 / 2.1.149 / 2.1.150 / 2.1.152 / 2.1.153 / 2.1.154 / 2.1.156 / 2.1.157 / 2.1.158 / 2.1.160 / 2.1.161 / 2.1.162 / 2.1.163 / 2.1.165 / 2.1.166 / 2.1.167 / 2.1.168 / 2.1.169 / 2.1.170 / 2.1.172 / 2.1.173 / 2.1.174 / 2.1.175 / 2.1.176 / 2.1.177 / 2.1.178 / 2.1.179 / 2.1.181 / 2.1.182 / 2.1.183 / 2.1.185 / 2.1.186 / 2.1.187 / 2.1.190 / 2.1.191 / 2.1.193 / 2.1.195 / 2.1.196 / 2.1.197 / 2.1.198 / 2.1.199 / 2.1.200 / 2.1.201 / 2.1.202 / 2.1.203 / 2.1.204: the waiting-state UI still renders taskDescription verbatim inside renderToolUseProgressMessage, so removing just that description element is enough to keep the view compact. In 2.1.186 and later published versions, the method is emitted as renderToolUseProgressMessage(e){...} and the child element uses jsx/jsxs, so the script supports both that shape and the older createElement(...) shape. The actual task output, task state, and completion notifications are unchanged. 2.1.184, 2.1.188, 2.1.189, 2.1.192, and 2.1.194 were not published on npm at verification time.

Options:

  • --dry-run preview changes without applying them
  • --restore restore from cli.js.backup
  • --file /path/to/cli.js patch a specific file

Current behavior after patching:

  • removes the extra raw task-description line above Waiting for task
  • keeps the Task Output <id> tag and the Waiting for task (esc to give additional instructions) status line
  • avoids huge multiline waiting blocks caused by wrapped commands or heredocs

Supports:

  • npm/local installs with patchable cli.js
  • native/binary installs via length-preserving in-place patching

macOS note for native installs:

  • patched native binaries may need ad-hoc codesign; the script attempts this automatically

Subagent Model Configuration

Configure which AI models Claude Code uses for different subagent types (Plan, Explore, general-purpose).

The Problem

By default, Claude Code hardcodes the models used by subagents:

  • Plan subagent: Uses Sonnet (for planning tasks)
  • Explore subagent: Uses Haiku (for code exploration)
  • general-purpose subagent: Inherits from main loop model

You cannot change these defaults without modifying the source code.

The Solution

This patch allows you to configure subagent models via a configuration file (~/.claude/subagent-models.json).

Current Version: Claude Code 2.0.46

Quick Start

# 1. Create configuration file
cat > ~/.claude/subagent-models.json <<EOF
{
  "Plan": "sonnet",
  "Explore": "sonnet",
  "general-purpose": "sonnet"
}
EOF

# 2. Run the patch script
node patch-subagent-models.js

# 3. Restart Claude Code

Configuration

Create ~/.claude/subagent-models.json with your preferred models:

{
  "Plan": "sonnet",
  "Explore": "haiku",
  "general-purpose": "sonnet"
}

Valid model values:

  • "haiku" - Fast and efficient (Claude Haiku 4.5)
  • "sonnet" - Balanced performance (Claude Sonnet 4.5)
  • "opus" - Most capable (Claude Opus 4.1)

Subagent Types:

  • Plan - Used in planning mode for breaking down tasks
  • Explore - Used for codebase exploration and file searching
  • general-purpose - Used for general multi-step tasks

Command-Line Options

# Apply patches
node patch-subagent-models.js

# Preview changes without applying
node patch-subagent-models.js --dry-run

# Restore original behavior
node patch-subagent-models.js --restore

# Patch a specific cli.js file or native claude binary (skip auto-detection)
node patch-subagent-models.js --file /path/to/cli.js
node patch-subagent-models.js --file /path/to/claude

# Show help
node patch-subagent-models.js --help

How It Works

The patch modifies Claude Code's cli.js to change the hardcoded model assignments:

Before (v2.0.37):

// Plan subagent
R3A={agentType:"Plan",...,model:"sonnet"}

// Explore subagent
model:"haiku"}});var R3A;

After (with config: Plan="haiku", Explore="sonnet"):

// Plan subagent
R3A={agentType:"Plan",...,model:"haiku"}

// Explore subagent
model:"sonnet"}});var R3A;

Important Notes

  1. After Claude Code Updates: Must re-run after claude update:

    node patch-subagent-models.js
  2. Backup: Created automatically at:

    ~/.claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js.subagent-models.backup
    
  3. Version-Specific: Patterns are specific to v2.0.37. May need updates for newer versions.

Restoration

Using the script:

node patch-subagent-models.js --restore

Manual restore:

cp ~/.claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js.subagent-models.backup \
   ~/.claude/local/node_modules/@anthropic-ai/claude-code/cli.js

Example Use Cases

Use Sonnet everywhere (avoid Haiku):

{
  "Plan": "sonnet",
  "Explore": "sonnet",
  "general-purpose": "sonnet"
}

Use Haiku for speed:

{
  "Plan": "haiku",
  "Explore": "haiku",
  "general-purpose": "haiku"
}

Balanced approach:

{
  "Plan": "sonnet",
  "Explore": "haiku",
  "general-purpose": "sonnet"
}

Troubleshooting

"No model configuration found"

  • Create ~/.claude/subagent-models.json with your desired configuration
  • Ensure the JSON syntax is valid

"Pattern not found"

  • Claude Code version may have changed
  • Run with --dry-run to see which patterns are detected
  • Check if patches are already applied

Changes not taking effect

  • Restart Claude Code after applying patches
  • Verify patches were applied with --dry-run
