SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Replay the Claude Code CHANGELOG entries from the most recent CLI upgrade. Use when the user wants to revisit "what's new" after the session-start greeting has scrolled away, or asks things like "what changed in the last upgrade", "show me the changelog", "what did I just upgrade into".

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Replay the latest upgrade changelog slice from the local cache for quick context.
  • View a specific version's section with /changelog <version>, or see the raw changes using /changelog --full.
  • Operates offline by reading from ~$HOME/.claude/cache; reports when data is missing and avoids network I/O.

Quick Start

Ask '/changelog' to review the most recent upgrade notes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I view Claude Code changelog entries after the upgrade greeting scrolls away?▼

To view Claude Code changelog entries, you can replay the latest upgrade notes from the local cache on demand. This retrieves the "what's new" information that was displayed during the session-start greeting.

Does the Claude Code changelog viewer require an internet connection?▼

The Claude Code changelog viewer operates completely offline by reading exclusively from the local cache at ~/.claude/cache. It performs no network I/O and gracefully reports when the requested data is missing.

How do I check the changelog for a specific Claude Code CLI version?▼

To check the changelog for a specific Claude Code CLI version, use the command /changelog <version>. This reads the targeted version history slice directly from the local cached upgrade data.

Can I see the full raw changelog slice from the last CLI upgrade?▼

You can view the full raw changelog slice from the most recent CLI upgrade by using the --full flag. This displays the complete unfiltered version history data stored in the local cache.

Why does my changelog command report missing data?▼

The changelog command reports missing data when the local cache at ~/.claude/cache does not contain the expected last_upgrade.md file. This occurs if no recent CLI upgrade has been cached locally.
