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.

Backgrounded web fetches get their own transcript label

Useful2 Signal2
Web Fetch

Background web fetches show as "Fetching in background" and report fetched size instead of agent stats.

What

A backgrounded web fetch shows as "Fetching in background" rather than a generic agent row, and its finished result prints the fetched size and text instead of an agent duration and tool count.

Details
  • Reachable only when web fetches are run through the background agent path; nothing else in this build routes them there.
Evidence

Fetching in background

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