What
Plan mode now applies auto-mode permission semantics whenever auto mode is available. The new boolean useAutoModeDuringPlan appears in /config under Permissions and defaults to true; setting it false in any settings source (policy, command-line flag, user or local settings) wins and turns it off.
Details
- Changing the setting recomputes the session's tool permission context immediately, so it takes effect without a restart.
Evidence

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