Problem Statement

Current behavior:
When a tool call is denied, the conversation shows "Tool Use Rejected" with no context about the original prompt.
<img width="409" height="202" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ef45b503-8baa-4876-8109-35d8e2bcd9c8" />

Expected behavior:
The user's actual prompt text should remain visible when a tool is rejected, keeping the conversation readable.

Proposed Solution

Suggested:
A setting like showRejectedPrompts: true in ~/.claude/settings.json to control this behavior.
