Unclear It is not stated what switches the script tool on, so it is unclear whether any reader can use it.
What
Claude Code has display support for a script tool. A tool is an action Claude can take, such as reading a file. A call to the script tool is shown with the label script:, the number of lines in the script, and a hint for expanding it. Errors that only repeat an error the script already reported are hidden.
When Claude asks for a tool it cannot use directly, the message can now say that the tool is only available inside the script tool, and explains how the script's output comes back.
Why
This points to a way for Claude to run code that calls other tools.
