This is gated behind a schema flag, and the tool's prompt now includes a paragraph explaining how to use it: pass `action: \"open\"` along with the artifact's `url`.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis gives Claude a way to surface an existing artifact to the user on its own, separate from the act of publishing or editing one.\n\n- Area: Artifacts\n- Names: `action: \"open\"`\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 4\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
