Bug Description
▎ Feature request: inline "edit the proposed change" option in edit permission prompts.
▎ Today the Edit/Write permission prompt only offers Yes / Yes-and-don't-ask-again / No. Please add a fourth option — like git add -p's e — that opens the proposed diff in $EDITOR (e.g. nvim) so I can amend the change and accept the edited version, instead of rejecting outright and re-prompting. This keeps small tweaks in the terminal flow without a reject → describe → re-propose round trip.
Potentially also good with a section to inform Claude of the reasoning behind the amendment.
