claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] Rating prompt triggers in fork subagents and deadlocks them

Bug Description Title: Automatic rating/feedback prompt triggers inside fork (sub)agents and blocks them

Summary The automatic in-session rating prompt (the numeric "rate this response" UI) was triggered inside a running fork agent. Because the fork has no interactive user attached, the prompt cannot be answered and the agent becomes stuck — effectively halted until the parent intervenes.

Repro

1. From a parent session, dispatch a fork via the Agent tool (with CLAUDE_CODE_FORK_SUBAGENT=1) — isolation: "worktree" in my case.
2. Let the fork run a non-trivial multi-step task (substantial tool use, file edits, test runs).
3. At some point during the fork's run, the rating UI surfaces inside the fork's loop.

Observed

• The fork's progress halts at the rating prompt.
• The parent has no way to dismiss/answer it on the fork's behalf.
• The work the fork had in flight is suspended; the worktree is left in an intermediate state.

Expected Fork / subagent runs should be exempt from the automatic rating prompt entirely. Forks are background, non-interactive workers — any UI that requires user input from inside them will deadlock them. The rating system should only trigger on the foreground/parent session that the user is actively interacting with.

Impact

• Breaks fan-out workflows (parallel forks) — any of the forks can lock up unpredictably.
• Loses progress / wastes tokens already spent in the fork's context.
• Makes long-running orchestration patterns (worktree-isolated parallel forks, federation patterns) unreliable.

Suggested fix Gate the rating prompt on "is the active loop the top-level user-attached session?" — when the loop is a subagent / fork (detectable via the same mechanism that injects the no-recursion directive), suppress the prompt unconditionally.
