What
Auto mode lets Claude Code decide some permission requests without asking you. The usage data it sends about each decision now includes two total wait times. Each adds together the time spent waiting on the server, the time queued, and the time the decision check took.
Why
This only affects usage reporting. Nothing changes in how Claude Code behaves.
