No distinction between `’` (curly quote) and `'` (straight quote)

Bug Description
Claude can't make the distinction between ’ and ', he can't follow this rule from my claude.md file :
- When creating or updating a php string:
- Use single s quotes (
') instead of double quotes (") to define strings. - Inside a string, use
’(curly quote) for apostrophe instead of'(straight quote) to avoid escaping.
If I try to teach him in LIVE chat the distinction and to correct his mistake, he seems to understand the difference but the correction is still wrong.
I understand now! You want me to use ' (straight quote) for opening and closing strings, and ' (curly apostrophe) for apostrophes inside strings. Let me correct this:
