Fix status: documented_behavior Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/web-search-tool (official_docs, 2026-09, documented_behavior): Docs: on web_search_20260209+ allowed_callers defaults to ['code_execution_20260120']; set ['direct'] to call without dynamic filtering; models without PTC require it, else 400. - https://github.com/applypack/applypack/issues/161 (github_issue, 2026-09-05, reported_symptom): @anthropic-ai/sdk 0.121.0 with claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 and web_search_20260209/web_fetch_20260209 → 400 'does not support programmatic tool calling.
