What

Claude Code has a rule for when to refresh the list of tools it tells Claude about, including tools whose details are loaded only when needed. The rule has two checks, a main one and a fallback. Those two checks have swapped places: the main check is now about the tool search tool being filtered out, and the fallback is about refreshing the tool list.

Why

This may change when Claude is reminded about tools that are loaded on demand.
