claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix --dangerously-skip-permissions exits when an auto-edit prompt is declined, breaking Shift+Tab mode cycle [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The session dropping out of --dangerously-skip-permissions mode after declining an auto-accept-edits prompt can be addressed by modifying the logic that handles the decline action to preserve the original mode.

Guidance

• Review the code that handles the decline action for auto-edit prompts to ensure it does not alter the --dangerously-skip-permissions mode.
• Verify that the Shift+Tab cycle correctly toggles through modes before and after declining an auto-edit prompt to identify where the mode change occurs.
• Consider adding a flag or state variable to track whether --dangerously-skip-permissions was initially set, ensuring it remains active even after declining an auto-edit prompt.
• Test the session launch with and without --dangerously-skip-permissions to confirm the behavior is consistent and as expected.

Notes

The exact implementation details of how --dangerously-skip-permissions is handled and how the auto-edit prompts are managed are not provided, so the guidance is based on the assumption that the issue lies in the logic that manages these features.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by modifying the decline action logic to preserve the --dangerously-skip-permissions mode, as this directly addresses the observed behavior without requiring additional context or version changes.
