Default to inline markdown links — `[short descriptive text](https://full-url)` — in terminal responses. The Claude Code terminal renders these as OSC 8 hyperlinks: only the short anchor shows and it stays clickable regardless of terminal width. Bare URLs inside code fences are NOT hyperlinked and hard-wrap into unselectable fragments.

**Why:** Mike asked (2026-06-05) to stop breaking long links (e.g. M365 admin-consent URLs) on linewrap.

**How to apply:** Use `[text](url)` by default. Exception — when the user needs to COPY a raw URL (paste into an email, hand to a client GA, etc.), put it in a code block instead, since inline links hide the raw target (clickable vs. copyable tradeoff). Raw URLs printed by a script's stdout that I'm merely relaying can't be marked up and will still wrap.
