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.

Clearer denial message where no permission prompt can be shown

Useful2 Signal1
Permissions

Background agents denied a tool now get a plain denial message instead of confusing don't-ask wording.

What

When a background agent denies a tool because it cannot ask you, the model now sees a plain "Permission to use X has been denied". The older wording about don't-ask mode is kept for that mode only, so the two cases no longer read the same.

Evidence

Permission prompts are not available in this context

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