Claude Code 2.1.215 makes /verify and /code-review opt-in again

2026-07-19 ยท source: anthropics/claude-code

Claude Code 2.1.215 stops automatically invoking the /verify and /code-review skills, requiring users to run them explicitly with the /verify or /code-review commands.

What it is

A small point release of Claude Code, the CLI coding agent, following closely on the heels of 2.1.214.

What it does

It removes Claude's ability to decide on its own to run the /verify and /code-review skills mid-session; those checks now only fire when you explicitly type the command.

Why it matters

Silent self-invoked review steps eat tokens and time without you asking for them. Making these opt-in again gives back control over when Claude spends a turn double-checking its own work instead of quietly doing it whenever it feels like it.

How to use it

Update Claude Code to 2.1.215 or later, then run /verify or /code-review manually whenever you want that check; it will no longer happen automatically in the background.
