What probably matters to youSection of the release
Unclear It is not settled what the classifier does differently for a click once the click is screened.
What
In auto mode, a classifier (a model that judges whether an action is safe) decides some permission requests for you. Claude in Chrome already sent page navigations to it. A new setting can send clicks too:
The permission settings gain chromeClickClassifierEnabled, next to the existing chromeNavigationClassifierEnabled.
The clicks covered are left_click, right_click, middle_click, double_click, triple_click and left_click_drag, whether sent alone on the computer tool or inside a batched actions list.
When it applies, a click is treated as an action for the classifier, the same way Chrome navigation already is.
No reading of tengu_auto_mode_config has been taken under this release yet.
Why
Once the server turns this on, browser clicks in auto mode would be checked by the safety classifier as well as page loads.

Feature flag
tengu_auto_mode_configNot enough to say
Nothing here resolved what this flag was doing on this version, so nothing here should be read as on or off.
This account: no value returned · anonymous baseline: no value returned · compiled default in v2.1.283: not a boolean we can read
These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.
