Bug Description In auto mode, Claude asks for permission even for things that are explicitly allowed in settings..json and shown under /permissions. It should respect that and not ask for permission.

Environment Info

  • Platform: darwin
  • Terminal: Apple_Terminal
  • Version: 2.1.114
  • Feedback ID: 56973fac-4690-474a-88c7-e25e12bdb4a2

TL;DR

The issue may be resolved by reviewing and updating the settings.json file to ensure that the permissions are correctly configured.

Guidance

  • Verify that the settings.json file is correctly formatted and that the allowed permissions are explicitly listed.
  • Check the /permissions endpoint to ensure that the expected permissions are being displayed and match the settings.json file.
  • Review the auto mode configuration to ensure that it is not overriding the settings.json permissions.
  • Test the permissions in a non-auto mode to see if the issue is specific to auto mode.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to the permissions configuration, but without more information about the settings.json file and the auto mode configuration, it's difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Review and update the settings.json file to ensure correct permissions configuration, as the issue seems to be related to the permissions not being respected in auto mode.
