Unclear It is not known what this list controls, so whether opening a tab is now approved or allowed differently is unclear.
What
Claude Code keeps a list of browser tab tools. tabs_create, which opens a new tab, has been removed from it. The list now holds only tabs_close and tabs_select.
Why
In practice, opening a new tab is no longer treated the same way as closing or switching tabs wherever this list is used.
