What
A tool call is one action Claude takes, such as editing a file or running a command. Permission rules are settings that allow or block such actions. When a permission rule refuses a tool call, Claude Code now records the reason as permission-rule. Before, these refusals were recorded with no reason. Logs now also include the parts of a result marked as refused.
Why
Refusals caused by your rules can now be told apart from actions that were interrupted, both in usage reporting and in tool results.
