Artifact hot-update/live-doc syncing now has its own feature flag and new deadline, seq, and unchanged fields

What

  • The artifact hot-update (live-reload) check now uses its own CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_HOT environment variable and tengu_copper_hinge_wren gate, instead of incorrectly sharing the CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_TYPES variable and tengu_cobalt_plinth_larch gate used by the separate artifact-types feature.
  • Artifact publish requests can now pass a deadline field, which is forwarded to the create/update/live-doc publish calls; the publish response can echo back deadline plus a deadlineDropped flag, along with new seq and unchanged fields.
  • The artifact/live-doc read response schema gains seq and unchanged fields, and (only when a feature gate is on) deadline/deadlineDropped fields, supporting a long-poll style read.

Why

Separating the hot-update flag from the unrelated artifact-types flag means each can be turned on or off independently without accidental interference. The new deadline/seq/unchanged fields lay the groundwork for telling older open copies of a published artifact when to stop and for tracking whether a read actually changed.

Nothing here resolved what this flag was doing on this version, so nothing here should be read as on or off.

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.

Added since A small documentation edit on Environment variables touched a line naming deadline after this was published. | `CLAUDE_CODE_WEBFETCH_DEADLINE_MS` | Upper bound in milliseconds on how long [WebFetch](/docs/en/tools-reference#webfetch-tool-behavior) waits for a page to download, including any redirects it follows.

Confirmed since Anthropic's documentation has since written up deadline, on Claude Code changelog. * Fixed WebFetch hanging indefinitely on a server that keeps the response open without finishing; a fetch now fails after 300 seconds. Set `CLAUDE_CODE_WEBFETCH_DEADLINE_MS` to override the deadline (0 turns it off) changelog see the edit
