What
When a fetched URL returns non-text content, Claude writes the raw bytes to disk. This release adds a record of those writes and prints it in the transcript as a harness note listing exactly which local files the run produced, with a warning that any other path in the report came from the page text rather than from disk.
Details
The record holds the directories and file paths written, and is threaded from the web-fetch task through the task store, the tool-result plumbing and the fetch cache.
A cache hit re-registers the path it previously saved to, so repeat fetches still report their file.
If the agent's own structured output already contains a saved-files key, the harness drops it and logs that it did, so the note always comes from the harness and not from the model.
Evidence
[Harness note, not part of the agent's report:
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
