The prompt takes an accepted, declined or cancelled answer. Both the prompt and the startup check are present in this build but switched off, so nothing appears unless remote config turns them on.\n\n**Details**\n\n- Gated on the remote flag `tengu_maple_pier`, which falls back to off, so the prompt is invisible by default in this build.\n- Shows at most once ever, tracked by `hasSeenAutoDefaultNudge` in config, and only after onboarding is complete.\n- The startup check returns nothing unless `hasSeenAutoDefaultNudge` is unset and your user settings set a `permissions.defaultMode` to something other than auto, with no project, local, command-line or policy setting overriding it.\n- Editor and SDK hosts can drive the flow: the VS Code notifications `auto_default_nudge_shown` and `auto_default_nudge_resolved` now go to a dedicated handler rather than being logged as generic events.\n- A second dialog kind, `ide_onboarding`, is registered alongside it.\n\n**Evidence**\n\n`choose: make auto mode the default permission mode`, `tengu_maple_pier`\n\n- Flag `tengu_maple_pier`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.236; this account: off, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off)\n- Area: Permissions\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
