Unclear It is not stated what Claude receives when it reads an empty document.
What
When Claude reads a file that is the document kind, Claude Code now handles it as a document only if its content is not blank once spaces and line breaks are ignored. A blank document now goes down another path. The check also looks at the right file information now: before, it was checking the wrong value.
Why
Claude no longer gets an empty document handed back as though it were real content.
