292292* **Plan**: All plans.
293293* **Organization**: on Team and Enterprise, auto mode is available by default. Administrators can turn it off for the organization by setting `permissions.disableAutoMode` to `"disable"` in [managed settings](/docs/en/managed-settings).
294* **Model**: on the Anthropic API and [Claude Platform on AWS](/docs/en/claude-platform-on-aws), Claude Opus 4.6 or later, Sonnet 4.6 or later, or a [Fable model](/docs/en/model-config#work-with-fable). On Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud's Agent Platform, Microsoft Foundry, and signed-in [Claude apps gateway](/docs/en/claude-apps-gateway) sessions, only Claude Sonnet 5, Opus 4.7 or later, and the Fable models. Older models, including Sonnet 4.5, Opus 4.5, Haiku, and claude-3 models, are not supported on any provider.

297297If Claude Code reports auto mode as unavailable, first check these requirements and whether any settings file sets [`disableAutoMode`](/docs/en/settings-reference#disableautomode). Anthropic may also have turned auto mode off server-side, or the server may have rejected auto mode for your account. A session that received either answer keeps auto mode off until the session ends, so start a new session later.

307307On [Amazon Bedrock](/docs/en/amazon-bedrock), [Google Cloud's Agent Platform](/docs/en/google-vertex-ai), [Microsoft Foundry](/docs/en/microsoft-foundry), and signed-in [Claude apps gateway](/docs/en/claude-apps-gateway) sessions, auto mode is available by default. With Claude Code v2.1.283 or later, it's also the [built-in starting permission mode](#which-mode-a-session-starts-in) for interactive terminal and [VS Code](/docs/en/vs-code) sessions. To choose the starting permission mode yourself, set `permissions.defaultMode` as [Start in a different permission mode](#start-in-a-different-mode) describes, or pick a permission mode from the VS Code extension's mode indicator.

309Only Claude Sonnet 5, Opus 4.7 or later, and the Fable models are supported on these providers. On any other model, the session starts in Manual instead.

311311To prevent developers from using auto mode, set `disableAutoMode` to `"disable"` in [managed settings](/docs/en/managed-settings). This removes `auto` from the `Shift+Tab` cycle, and a session started with `--permission-mode auto` starts in Manual instead. A session already running in auto mode leaves it when the setting reaches that session from an [admin-deployed source](/docs/en/managed-settings#which-managed-source-claude-code-uses), and shows `auto mode disabled by settings`. Before v2.1.251, a running session kept auto mode until it ended.
