What

Claude Code will no longer fall back to auto mode if either permissions.disableAutoMode or the top-level disableAutoMode setting is set to "disable". The fallback also still requires the auto-mode circuit breaker to be inactive and remote config to allow auto mode, so setting neither key leaves behaviour as before.

Details
  • Both spellings are checked, so the key works at the top level of settings or nested under permissions.
  • The resolver's result now also reports a baselineMode (the mode it started from before any fallback) alongside the mode it settled on.
  • A proactivity level is now passed into the resolver and a decidedByProactivityLevel flag returned with it, but that flag is always false here and the resolver's proactivity output is undefined, so proactivity does not influence the chosen mode in this build.
Usage
{ "permissions": { "disableAutoMode": "disable" } }
Evidence

decidedByProactivityLevel

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