What
Claude Code's colour themes have a new colour, autoAcceptShimmer , a light purple, next to the existing autoAccept colour. Auto-accept is the mode where Claude applies edits without asking you each time.
Why
This is a small visual polish, most likely for a shimmer effect on the auto-accept indicator.
