What

A tool call is a single action Claude takes, such as running a command or reading a file. When a tool call's output is too large and Claude Code cannot save the full output, Claude receives a message about it. That message has been reworded. It now says:

  • the output was too large and could not be saved, so only the first part is shown and the rest was dropped
  • when several calls in one reply overflow, those results share one limit
  • Claude can page through the output, filter it, or repeat the call with fewer calls per reply
Why

Claude gets clearer guidance when part of a tool's output is lost, so it can try a better way to get what it needs instead of working from incomplete results.
