DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

 ### Auto mode
 
-A [permission mode](#permission-mode) where a separate classifier model reviews actions in the background, so most run without approval prompts; explicit ask rules still prompt. The classifier blocks scope escalation, untrusted infrastructure, and [prompt injection](#prompt-injection). It never sees tool results, so injected instructions cannot influence its decisions.
+A [permission mode](#permission-mode) where a separate classifier model reviews actions instead of you, so Claude Code runs most of them without asking you. Claude Code still asks you before actions your explicit ask rules match. On Pro, Max, and Team plans, auto mode is the [built-in starting permission mode](/docs/en/permission-modes#which-mode-a-session-starts-in) for interactive terminal and VS Code sessions. The classifier blocks scope escalation, untrusted infrastructure, and [prompt injection](#prompt-injection). It never sees tool results, so injected instructions can't influence its decisions.
