# Claude Code 2.1.290 names server tool calls, subagent checks, and org approval ceilings

> Claude Code 2.1.290 adds hook fields for API-run tool calls, a subagent permission check, and the org approval ceiling, plus session attach by partial name.

Claude Code 2.1.290, published October 5, 2026 at 23:33 UTC, adds hook fields for tool calls the API ran itself, a subagent's permission check, and the approval an organization requires for a tool.

## New fields on turn.step and tool.check

A mod's `turn.step` hook result now includes `serverToolUses`. The release notes describe those entries as the tool calls the API ran itself — the advisor — each with its id, name, input, start, and end.

Plugin hooks get a separate addition. The `tool.check` event now includes `agentId`, so a hook can tell a subagent's permission check from the main session's.

On a mod's `tool.check` hook, both the question and the verdict include `ceiling`. The notes say that field names the approval an organization requires for a tool.

These are listed as three additions, not one shared payload. `serverToolUses` and `ceiling` are on mod hooks. `agentId` is on the plugin `tool.check` event. The tag does not include sample payloads for any of them.

## Partial session names, Deny, and managed-agents onboard

`claude attach <name>` and `claude logs <name>` accept part of a session name in place of the id.

The Claude apps gateway's sign-in approval page now has a Deny button. It ends the pending sign-in, so the waiting terminal stops within seconds.

`/claude-api managed-agents-onboard` has two forms in the notes. With a URL, it sets up the Managed Agents pattern a page describes as `ant apply` files. With a quickstart name, it builds a Console quickstart template with the `ant` CLI. The notes give `deep-researcher` as an example.

After you upgrade, inspect a `turn.step` result and a `tool.check` question before you branch on the new fields, and try `claude attach` with part of a session name. Read the v2.1.290 release notes for the rest of the tag, including fixes outside these commands.
