The Artifact tool's auto_open option only appears if server-side config enables Artifact type creation for you.

auto_open with at_create and after_first_write is in the tool schema but spliced in only when server config enables Artifact type creation.

What

The Artifact tool schema accepts auto_open with values at_create and after_first_write, applying only to a create with type_url and no file_path. It is spliced into the schema only when Artifact type creation is enabled for the account by server-side config, so with no server value the parameter is not offered at all.

Details
  • Passing it alongside file_path is refused with reason auto_open_with_files; passing it without type_url is an input-validation error.
  • In 2.1.246 the only auto_open strings in the build were unrelated telemetry reasons, so the parameter itself is new.
Evidence

auto_open: un(["at_create", "after_first_write"])

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

Since it was published

The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.

Confirmed since Anthropic's documentation has since written up at_create, on Apps. `GET /v1/compliance/activities` with `activity_types[]=claude_chat_created` api/compliance/apps see the edit
