What
Claude Code can hit a 400-style "prefix lock" error and attempt to automatically heal it. Now, if that auto-heal attempt is declined, the error gets marked with prefixLockHealDeclined, and the request-retry logic checks for that marker so it doesn't loop trying the same auto-heal again.
Why
This prevents Claude Code from repeatedly retrying an auto-heal that has already been declined, avoiding a wasted retry loop on this specific error condition.
