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.

Web Fetch

Asking for worktree or remote isolation on built-in web fetch is ignored; it always runs locally.

What

Asking for worktree or remote isolation when invoking the built-in web-fetch agent is now ignored and noted in the debug log; that agent always runs as a local agent.

Details
  • The worktree-availability check is skipped for it entirely.
