What
When the permission mode (such as switching to 'default' or 'acceptEdits') changes, Claude Code now keeps track of whether that change came from you answering a permission prompt or from elsewhere, such as a remote worker.
When a permission-request response sets the session-scoped mode to default or acceptEdits, the UI now calls a new noteOwnPermissionModeAnswer callback, alongside a parallel noteOwnPermissionModePush, so the outer session layer can attribute the change to answering a permission dialog.
In Remote Control's transport layer, the permission-mode change handler now takes an origin argument distinguishing a mode set by the person from one set by the worker, and the same noteOwnPermissionModePush/noteOwnPermissionModeAnswer methods track locally-initiated mode changes through a modeWire structure.
Why
This prevents the interface from mistakenly echoing back a permission-mode change as if it came from somewhere else when it was really something you just did yourself, particularly during remote/worker sessions.
