claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Option to render AskUserQuestion prompts inline instead of as a modal dialog

Problem

When Claude Code uses AskUserQuestion, the question appears in a modal/dialog window that overlays the transcript. This prevents me from scrolling back through the prior conversation to review context before choosing an answer. For non-trivial decisions I often need to re-read what was just discussed, which the modal blocks.

Desired behavior

A setting to make AskUserQuestion fall back to rendering questions inline in the transcript (as regular assistant text with enumerated options), so the full conversation history remains scrollable while answering.

Suggested shapes

• A settings.json flag, e.g. "inlineQuestionsEnabled": true, or
• A permission-style opt-out: "permissions": { "deny": ["AskUserQuestion"] } causing the model to ask in plain text instead.

Why

Modal prompts assume the decision is self-contained, but in long sessions the answer often depends on details earlier in the transcript. Forcing inline questions also makes the transcript a complete record of the back-and-forth, which helps when reviewing sessions later.
