A new remotely controlled switch is now passed in when Claude Code builds WebFetch's instructions, and is recorded in two kinds of WebFetch usage data. The switch defaults off, and with that default WebFetch behaves as before.\n\n**Why**\n\nOnly a value sent by Anthropic's server could change WebFetch's instructions, so there is nothing to notice until that happens.\n\n- Flag `tengu_eventual_aho`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.318; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
