Research direction
No file, test, entry point, affected version, or reproduction steps are provided. Start by capturing a Java coding prompt that produces the missing str_replace-tool message and compare the subsequent edit behavior. Done means identifying why the unavailable tool is requested and confirming that the same task completes without the error.
