Claude Code can reply to artifact comments automatically. Such a reply now counts as declined by auto mode when the classifier is unavailable, and the notice about the decline can appear. Before, only two cases counted as a decline: the classifier blocking the reply, or its answer failing to parse.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis is a narrow path. In practice, an unavailable classifier now stops the automatic reply with a visible notice.\n\n- Area: Artifacts\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
