DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

 The following features are available for deployments hosted on Anthropic but are not supported for deployments hosted on Azure:
 
-* Structured outputs
-* Server-side tools (web search, web fetch, code execution, and tool search)
-* MCP connector
-* Agent Skills
-* Programmatic tool calling
-* Files API
+* [Code execution](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/code-execution-tool)
+* [Web search](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/web-search-tool) and [web fetch](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/web-fetch-tool) tool versions later than `web_search_20250305` and `web_fetch_20250910`. Deployments hosted on Azure support only these basic versions, so dynamic filtering, response inclusion, and cache bypass are not available.
+* [Agent Skills](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/agent-skills/overview)
+* [Programmatic tool calling](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/programmatic-tool-calling)
+* [Files API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/files)
 
 Requests that use these features against a deployment hosted on Azure return a `400 Bad Request` error by design. Claude Code detects deployments hosted on Azure and automatically adapts its feature set.

 The latest web fetch tool version (`web_fetch_20260318`) supports **dynamic filtering** with Claude Fable 5, Claude Opus 4.8, Claude Mythos 5, [Claude Mythos Preview](https://anthropic.com/glasswing), Claude Opus 4.7, Claude Opus 4.6, Claude Sonnet 5, and Claude Sonnet 4.6. Claude can write and execute code to filter fetched content before it reaches the context window, keeping only relevant information and discarding the rest. This reduces token consumption while maintaining response quality. `web_fetch_20260318` also adds [response inclusion](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/web-fetch-tool#response-inclusion) control for agentic workflows. The previous versions (`web_fetch_20260309` for dynamic filtering and [cache bypass](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/web-fetch-tool#cache-bypass), `web_fetch_20260209` for dynamic filtering only, `web_fetch_20250910` for basic fetch) remain available.
