⬤ Anthropic released Claude Code 2.0.55 with clear improvements to its coding assistant. The update improves fuzzy matching for @ file suggestions - filename searches become faster and more flexible when developers type partial strings. The release also adds stability improvements and bug fixes that create a smoother coding experience.
⬤ The new fuzzy matching system allows developers to locate files even when they type incomplete names - for example typing "usrctr" brings up "UserController.ts." This feature addresses a common problem in large codebases. It helps developers who work quickly or who do not recall exact filenames. It reduces the time spent searching through directories plus keeps workflow interruptions low.
⬤ Version 2.0.55 fixes two notable bugs. The first fix switches proxy DNS resolution from a forced default to an opt in setting. Users control it through the environment variable CLAUDE_CODE_PROXY_RESOLVES_HOSTS=true. The second fix removes unresponsive keyboard navigation when users hold arrow keys in the memory location selector. Both fixes lower friction during active coding sessions and increase tool reliability.
⬤ Those updates appear while AI-assisted development tools gain popularity. Faster file search and fixed navigation issues render Claude Code more responsive for daily use. This reinforces its place among AI-powered coding platforms.
