# Claude Code 2.1.281

By Steven Van · 2026-09-23

Adds a settings.json option to hide commit and PR attribution, plus MCP elicitation and Bedrock gateway updates.

[Claude Code](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/claude-code>) 2.1.281 adds a setting to turn off commit and PR attribution, plus updates to MCP support and the Claude apps gateway.

- Setting **"attribution": false** in settings.json hides all commit and PR attribution. Older CLI versions skip a settings file that holds it, so the object form is best kept in files shared across versions.

- MCP servers on 2026-07-28 protocol connections can now use URL-mode elicitation, letting a server ask Claude Code to open a browser-based flow. No waiting dialog is left on screen if the server has no way to confirm completion.

- claude plugin validate now checks MCP server entries in .mcp.json as part of validation.

- The Claude apps gateway adds **assume\_role** support for Bedrock upstreams, letting the gateway call Bedrock as an IAM role assumed via STS, optionally in another AWS account or with one session per developer. It also adds a **guardrail** setting to apply an Amazon Bedrock guardrail to every request, a **telemetry.resource\_attributes** option to label Claude Desktop and /login session telemetry, and support for newer Claude Desktop policy keys including **blockReadsOutsideWorkingDirectories** and **disableBypassPermissionsMode**.
