That paragraph says the denial applies to the outcome, not only to the exact command. Claude is told not to pursue the same outcome through:\n\n- another tool, interpreter, host or encoding\n\n- splitting the command into smaller pieces\n\n- a sub-agent (a helper Claude starts to do part of the work) or a later turn\n\n- writing down ways around the denial\n\nFor batch or range operations, Claude may run the operation again without the flagged items, but it has to leave those items to you. If the denial names something that would clear it, such as a first-hand read of a file, Claude may do that and then try again.\n\n**Why**\n\nA denial now blocks the goal and not only the one command that was refused, so Claude should not work around it by rephrasing the action. Items that were refused are left for you to handle.\n\n- Area: Auto Mode\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
