Internal ChangesSection of the release
Unclear The new condition that skips deferral (Xzt()) isn't identified, so it's unclear what circumstance it represents.
What
Tools that come from MCP servers (Model Context Protocol, a way to connect external tools to Claude Code) are now deferred (not loaded immediately) unconditionally, whereas before this was gated behind a feature check. The only exception is when a new internal condition is true, in which case deferral is skipped entirely.
Why
This tightens when MCP tools get loaded up front, likely to reduce unnecessary upfront loading, though the specific new exception condition isn't named in a way that says what it represents.
