The message Claude gets now says \"Read what you need of that file\" instead of \"Read that file\". It then describes the file:\n\n- its version\n\n- its size in bytes\n\n- its line count\n\n- whether every line is short enough to read in parts, with any lines that are too long listed\n\nThe same hand-over now also applies when the starting version could not be examined, and a new check can hold the hand-over back. The guard only runs when its own internal switch is on.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis steers Claude away from reading very large live artifact files in full, and warns it about lines too long to read in pieces.\n\n- Area: Artifacts\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5"}
