If you press Ctrl+C (or a similar key) once while one is open, its hint now reads \"Press again to cancel.\" It says \"exit\" only when the dialog is set up to quit on a second press, through a new setting, `exitOnCtrlCD`, which is off by default. A new `inputGuideMinHeight` setting was also added.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe hint now describes what a second keypress actually does in most dialogs, which is cancel the request and not quit Claude Code.\n\n- Area: Permissions\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
