AskUserQuestion dialog fallback cannot fire in this build

Not switched on
Useful1 Signal3
Auto Mode not in their notes

A fallback to the question dialog when auto-classification is unavailable can never fire here.

The fallback branch negates a helper that always returns true, making it unreachable.

What

New code lets a question fall back to the interactive dialog when the auto-mode classifier is unavailable or the conversation is too long for it, instead of failing. The condition negates a helper that always returns true here, so the branch is unreachable as shipped.

Details
  • the separate classifier switch remains, readable from CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_MODE_CLASSIFY_ASK_USER_QUESTION or the classifyAskUserQuestion field of the auto mode config
Evidence

Auto mode classifier transcript too long for AskUserQuestion, falling back to the question dialog

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
