Unclear It is not clear what the extra information is or whether it changes which commands are approved automatically.

What

Claude Code can approve some commands automatically when they only read things and change nothing. The tool that runs the command decides whether it counts as read-only. That decision used to look only at the command. It now also receives a second piece of information.

Why

Whether a command runs without asking can now depend on more than the command alone.
