Claude Code v2.1.234

Artifact read-back and database writes report unknown outcomes instead of failures

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal3
Artifacts

A failed artifact request inside the cloud relay now reports an unknown outcome so Claude re-reads before retrying.

What

When a request to the artifact service fails inside the cloud relay, Claude is now told the outcome is unknown and to re-read before retrying, rather than being told the operation failed. That stops it repeating a write that may already have applied.

Details
  • Failures on the relay path are reported as relay_request_error instead of request_error.
  • Retry-after handling now applies only to a genuine 429 from the artifact service, not to a relay response.
  • The read-back and publish calls dropped their per-call host, auth and status-validation options.
  • New telemetry for repairing nested HTML: nested_repair_depth_cap and nested_repair_miss.
Evidence

db write outcome unknown (relay request failed) — it may have applied; read back before retrying, read-back relay HTTP

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