The live_doc publish field is gone from the artifact tool

You can no longer ask the artifact tool to publish a live doc; the document skill is marked live-doc backed instead.

What

The optional live_doc input and its gate branch are removed from the artifact tool schema, and the live-doc prompt block no longer ships in the tool description. The document skill now carries a marker saying it is live-doc backed instead.

Details
  • The skill only appends its live-doc section when the live-doc module is present and a gate passes.
  • That module handle is a build-time constant set to null and never assigned, so every live-doc branch in this build is unreachable. The same was true in v2.1.235, so what changed is the shrunken input schema, not the reachability.
Evidence

liveDocBacked

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