The approval prompt for fetching a claude.ai artifact now describes it as reading the artifact, not fetching a URL

What

When Claude Code asks for permission to fetch a claude.ai artifact, the wording of the prompt changed. It previously said an existing "ask" rule covers fetching the URL; it now says the rule covers reading the artifact.

Why

The new wording more accurately describes what's actually happening (reading an artifact) rather than framing it as a generic URL fetch, which should make the permission prompt less confusing.
