Claude Code 2.1.133: `worktree.baseRef` Default Returns to `origin/<default>`, MCP OAuth Proxy Honored Across the Whole Flow
Anthropic shipped Claude Code 2.1.133 on May 7, 2026. The headline is a worktree-base behavior change: a new `worktree.baseRef` setting (`fresh` | `head`) defaults to `fresh`, which moves `EnterWorktree`'s base back to `origin/<default>` after several months of branching from local `HEAD`. The release also routes `HTTP(S)_PROXY` / `NO_PROXY` / mTLS through the entire MCP OAuth flow (discovery, dynamic client registration, token exchange, refresh), exposes effort level to hooks via `$CLAUDE_EFFORT`, adds Linux sandbox path overrides, and fixes a refresh-token race that was 401-ing parallel sessions.
Cursor 3.2 Adds /multitask Async Subagents, Worktrees Polish, and Multi-Root Workspaces
Cursor 3.2 shipped on April 24, 2026 with three changes that pull cross-repo, parallel agent work into the default flow: a new `/multitask` command that fans a request out to async subagents instead of queueing, an improved worktrees experience that runs isolated branch work in the background, and multi-root workspaces so a single agent session can target frontend, backend, and shared-library folders at once.
