What
When Claude Code suggests a freeform permission rule and you accept it, it can turn that into an always-allow rule going forward. Previously this logic only worked for one specific hardcoded tool and skipped MCP (Model Context Protocol, a way of connecting external tools) tools entirely. It now instead asks the actual tool whether it supports this via a suppressesAllPermissionUpdates() check, and builds the new rule using that tool's real name.
Why
This means the always-allow-after-accept behavior can now apply to more tools, including ones beyond the single tool it used to be limited to, as long as the tool supports it.
