What
When Claude Code decides whether an MCP tool is allowed to run, it now first checks whether the SDK layer has already made a decision. If it has, that decision is used directly; otherwise Claude Code falls through to its usual suggestion and consent flow.
Why
This lets a higher-level permission decision (for example, one set by an SDK integration) take priority over Claude Code's default prompt-for-consent behavior for MCP tools.
