What

In auto mode, Claude Code runs a separate check that decides whether an action may go ahead without asking you. The conversation that check reads can now begin with a section inherited from a parent. When Claude Code measures how much context the check uses, it now counts only the part after that inherited section, where before the earlier context was counted in full.

Why

This affects how much the check costs and how well it reuses earlier work.
