Easier-to-Read Secondary Text

Claude Code 2.1.319 improves the contrast of faint gray secondary text. The release notes name hints, details in /stats, /model and /sandbox, and rejected-action messages as examples.

Why It Matters

Faint text is hard to read on some terminal themes. Rejected-action messages and /sandbox details are the kind of text a user needs to read to understand why something was blocked. The notes do not give exact color values or say which themes are affected.
