This is called tool search. The check that decides which tools are held back used to depend on one remote switch. It now takes an extra input and depends on three switches:\n\n- When the extra input is not set, two of the switches each allow more kinds of tools to be held back.\n\n- When the extra input is set, those two switches are ignored and the third switch can leave a tool out entirely.\n\nAll three switches are off unless switched on remotely. The flag server returned all three off for this site's account and for the anonymous baseline. No reading has been taken under this release yet.\n\n**Why**\n\nWhich tools are loaded up front and which wait behind tool search can now vary with these remote switches.\n\n- Flag `tengu_deep_sphinx`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.323; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Flag `tengu_misty_fiddle`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.323; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Flag `tengu_pure_squid`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.323; this account: off, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Tool Search\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
