What

When Read calls made inside a REPL produce more PDFs than the result can carry, the extras are dropped and replaced by a note that states the cap and tells Claude to read fewer PDFs per call, so the model can correct itself instead of silently losing documents.

Details
  • Parallel counters were added for omitted images and for image pages that failed to render.
Evidence

"type": "text"

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