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.

Classifier requests choose how retries are counted

Under the hood
Useful1 Signal2
Permissions

Tool classifier requests choose whether retries count per attempt or per whole call.

What

Requests from the tool classifier now say whether the retry budget is counted per attempt or per whole call, changing when they are given up on. The same path can also be handed credentials directly.

Details
  • The classifier path passes per-attempt; the other caller passes per-call.
Evidence

if ((i.count++, s === "per_attempt" && !u.aborted))

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