What's Wrong?

I was in plan mode and asked Claude Code to use the web search tool to fetch the latest guidance on effective writing of Skills. While it was able to retrieve content at docs.claude.com/ it was not able to fetch content at wwww.anthropic.com/ due to the below error.

What Should Happen?

Seeing as Anthropic owns Claude, this is one domain that should certainly not have been blocked while using the web search tool.

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Start a Claude Code session with a starter prompt.
  2. Enter plan mode to plan an implementation about a skill
  3. Once Claude asks clarifying questions with an option to add text telling Claude to do something different from the other provided options, ask Claude to use the web search tool to reference Anthropic's latest guidance on writing effective skills.

Expected Behavior: Claude should be able to retrieve and parse official Claude Code documentation as well as engineering blogs on Anthropic's website for skills.

Actual Behavior: Retrieval of Claude Code docs on skills succeeded but the anthropic domain was blocked from being retrieved.
