Permission prompts fire a notification hook if left unanswered

Your notification hook now fires when a permission prompt sits unanswered for six seconds; one env var disables it.

What

When Claude Code asks permission to use a tool, a 6-second timer starts; if the prompt is still waiting, a notification hook fires with notificationType permission_prompt and a message naming the tool. The timer is cancelled the moment you answer. Set CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_PERMISSION_PROMPT_NOTIFY_HOOKS to turn it off; it is on by default.

Details
  • The timer is unref'd, so it never keeps the process alive on its own.
  • The variable is newly registered in the environment-variable schema as a boolean.
