WebFetch is the tool Claude uses to read a web page. A subagent is a helper agent that Claude starts to do part of a task. Several WebFetch messages change:
- Site refusal: when a site refuses the request and you named that site yourself, a subagent may be told that tools for a browser on your computer are also available. This sits behind the
tengu_swirling_bootsetting, which is off unless it is switched on remotely. - Long pages: the note about a page being cut short can now give a "Next offset", the point to continue reading from.
- Redirects: the text about a page redirecting elsewhere is reworded when a subagent made the request.
When a site blocks a fetch, this steers Claude toward a browser tool that may still reach the page.
