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`.\n\n**Details**\n\n- The saved-files record holds directories and paths, seeded with a saved-files directory.\n- 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.\n- When files were saved, the usual per-agent output file is skipped.\n\n**Evidence**\n\n`that key is reserved for the harness's own record of files `\n\n- Flag `tengu_clever_orbit`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.232; this account: off, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Web Fetch\n- Names: `CLAUDE_CODE_WEB_FETCH_AGENT`\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
