Limit the permission-denial failure message to what the user needs to act on.

cliPermissionDenialFailure places raw tool input in the message. summarizeClaudeToolRequest copies a Bash command or file path up to 400 characters, so a credential in that command appears in the failure text. The 400-character cap bounds the exposure but does not redact it.

The Safe values rule in docs/internals/effect-services.md does not cover this message. It applies to Schema.TaggedError attributes and log annotations, and the repository guidance does not prescribe result-classification behavior for adapters. The concern rests on the disclosure itself, not on that rule.

Choose a remedy that keeps the denied action identifiable without copying raw command text. The current prompt-based fallback in the approval path already exposes command text, so a change here should match the intended user-facing behavior. Do not reduce the message to tool names alone without deciding whether that still meets the PR goal of identifying the denied calls.

Review comment at @apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/ClaudeAdapterV2.ts around lines 4395 - 4399:
Update cliPermissionDenialFailure and its use of summarizeClaudeToolRequest so denial messages identify the denied actions without copying raw command text or file paths. Establish an appropriate safe identifier that still distinguishes denied calls and matches the intended user-facing behavior of the approval path; do not assume tool names alone are sufficient.

Use the reported outcome when completing a goal.

If an active /goal turn produces a root assistant frame and then ends with a CLI permission denial, reportedStatus becomes failed, but input.status remains completed. With no background work, the goal-completion gate at Line 8986–9002 still persists goal.status: "complete".

Preserve the underlying status for resource cleanup, but require reportedStatus === "completed" before completing the goal. Extend an existing goal test with this denial case.

Review comment at @apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/ClaudeAdapterV2.ts at line 8672:
Update the goal-completion gate that uses input.status so it completes a goal only when reportedStatus is "completed", while retaining input.status for resource cleanup. Extend the existing goal test to cover an active /goal turn with a root assistant frame followed by a CLI permission denial, verifying the goal is not persisted as complete.
