What
Claude Code records a telemetry event when a tool call is automatically denied without ever showing you a permission prompt. The documentation for that event now spells out an additional case it does not cover: calls to the file tools (Read, Edit, Write) that get refused because of a path-scoped deny rule (a rule blocking access to a specific file path). This joins two exclusions already documented: denials from a PreToolUse hook, and denials overridden by a deny rule.
Why
This matters mainly for anyone analyzing this telemetry event: it clarifies that path-scoped file denials won't show up there, so counts from this event undercount that particular category of automatic denial.
