Unclear What Claude Code does differently with tools that match this list is not known.
What
Claude Code keeps a list of tool-name beginnings that it uses to spot browser tools from Claude Preview and Claude in Chrome. Before, the list held Claude_Preview__ and mcp__claude-for-chrome__. It now also includes mcp__remote-devices__claude-for-chrome__, for Chrome tools reached through a remote device. The match now also runs one more check alongside the list.
Why
Chrome tools running on a remote device are now handled the same way as the local ones.
