What
In the reminder-hook-pretool-block context (shown when a pre-tool-use hook blocks a tool call), the Bash tool's description as rendered there lost a portion of its text, including the line about using the appropriate dedicated tool instead for a better user experience.
Why
This means Claude sees a shorter version of the Bash tool's description specifically in this blocked-hook context, though the tool's description elsewhere is unaffected.
