A tool is an action Claude can take, such as reading a file.\n\nThe note covers one case directly. If a result says a doc's new text was not read, Claude should call `project_read` with that doc's name before using it.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis points to project docs being kept in sync with conversations. Claude should then work from a doc's current text and not from an older version.\n\n- Area: Projects\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
