What probably matters to youSection of the release

Binary download-to-disk works only for built-in web-fetch agents behind tengu_clever_orbit or CLAUDE_CODE_WEB_FETCH_AGENT.

What

Fetch tasks run by the new web-fetch agent can write binary content such as a PDF to a local directory and append a note to the agent's report listing the saved paths, warning that any other path in the report came from page text rather than the harness. Gated behind the web-fetch agent gate tengu_clever_orbit or the CLAUDE_CODE_WEB_FETCH_AGENT environment variable, and only for built-in agents of type web-fetch.

Details
  • The saved-files record holds directories and paths, seeded with a saved-files directory.
  • The record's key is reserved: if the agent emits it in its own structured output, that value is dropped and the drop is logged.
  • When files were saved, the usual per-agent output file is skipped.
Evidence

that key is reserved for the harness's own record of files

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

The flag server returned off for the account this site reads and for the anonymous baseline. A reading of off cannot rule out a rollout these two readings sit outside of.

What has happened since
Flag reading moved The flag server now returns off for tengu_clever_orbit, read as this account. A reading is one sample. Claude Code evaluates its flags remotely, so no client sees the targeting rule behind a value and this says nothing about your account.
