No you weren't, you were instructed to intercept the localizer.
I climbed back to 4000 and about 30 seconds later, was
cleared to decent.
No, you were instructed to descend and then cleared for the approach.
I did not think about it at the time, but does clear to intercept
localizer mean I cannot decent until I am clear to decent?
You need to discover the difference between a clearance and an
instruction, especially the phraseology ATC uses to issue a clearance.
