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.

Claude Code v2.1.234

Rejected images are reported instead of silently dropped

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal2
Attachments

When the API rejects an attached image, you're now told rather than getting a silent picture-free answer.

What

When the API rejects an image or document attachment and Claude retries the request without it, that stripping is now reported to the caller. The plugin eval judge uses this: if a case's attached image was rejected, the failure message says so and a dedicated error is raised, instead of the judge quietly grading a prompt with no picture.

Details
  • The retry classifies the query as main_thread or other.
  • Errors thrown by the observer are logged as warnings and the retry continues.
