Source Intelligence

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.

Improved Edit Tool Unicode Handling

The Edit tool now attempts to match \uXXXX escape sequences and their literal Unicode character equivalents. If neither form matches, it provides a more helpful error message: "Edit also tried swapping \uXXXX escapes and their characters; neither form matched, so the mismatch is likely elsewhere in old_string.".

Evidence

Unicode swap functions $e8 and qe8 at line ~260927, and error hint (search for "swapping \\uXXXX escapes").

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
