When it blocks or refuses an action, Claude Code builds a message explaining the refusal.\n\nThat message is now built with one extra piece of information: whether the caller has tools for reading files. Before, it was built only from whether the action was refused or not.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe refusal text you or Claude sees may now read differently depending on whether the agent that made the call can read files.\n\n- Area: Auto Mode\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
