What

Two separate lists now name mcp__ide__executeCode and mcp__ide__getDiagnostics as real constants where previously there were no-op placeholders, so these two IDE tools are special-cased somewhere in permission or tool-filtering.

Evidence

["mcp__ide__executeCode", "mcp__ide__getDiagnostics"]

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

Confirmed since Anthropic's documentation has since written up mcp__ide__getDiagnostics, on JetBrains IDEs. | `mcp__ide__getDiagnostics` | Returns the IDE's inspection diagnostics, the errors and warnings shown in the editor. Each call covers one file: the file Claude specifies, or the file in your active editor if Claude doesn't specify one. | … jetbrains see the edit
