Aug 31 , 20:36 UTC Resolved - The issue affecting Claude Code has been resolved. Impact occurred from 16∶55 to 19∶16 UTC. Aug 31 , 19:21 UTC Investigating - We are investigating reports of degraded performance affecting Claude in Slack, Claude Code on the web, and Code Review. We will provide an update as soon as possible.
Fixed Bash commands failing with "task output swap refused (tasks dir moved or linked)" on some Macs Fixed "always allow" not saving in a project that has no .claude/settings.local.json yet Fixed Remote Control sessions hosted by Claude Desktop or VS Code stalling for minutes after a tool finished when the connection to claude.ai was degraded Fixed background task notifications with very large failure output (for example git errors on a full disk) making the conversation exceed the API request size limit

Every line links to the lab that published it. We collect from their blogs, changelogs, status pages and model docs every fifteen minutes, and we don't reword what they wrote. The live feed has the filters and the RSS.
