macOS permission denial now tells Claude to stop retrying

A refused macOS permission now tells Claude to stop retrying and ask you to grant it.

What

When a macOS access request is refused, the message Claude receives no longer just says a permission panel was shown. It instructs Claude not to retry during the same turn and to ask you to grant permissions in the Claude desktop app on the machine it is running on.

Evidence

Do not retry in this turn.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
