This used to cover images, files and PDF reads. It now also covers:\n\n- Documents included in the conversation.\n\n- Tool results, which are the output Claude Code got back after running a tool.\n\n- File IDs that appear in the arguments of a tool call or in files on disk, which are now tracked.\n\nThe record of a withdrawal now counts how many tool results and documents were removed and notes which paths were not shown.\n\n**Why**\n\nLess of a withdrawn file is left behind in the conversation's context, which matters if the file was withdrawn for privacy.\n\n- Area: File Withdrawal\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
