Summary

The release adds —restricted mode, which removes command-running tools and WebFetch unless explicitly allowed, confines file tools to the working directory, refuses bypassPermissions, and ignores local settings files. It also adds cross-session SendMessage and ListAgents support on Bedrock, Vertex, and Foundry, alongside self-hosted runner labels and prompt-cache fixes.

Why it matters

Engineering teams gain a stronger least-privilege baseline for coding agents while multi-session workflows become more viable on enterprise providers.
