What
Auto mode lets Claude carry out actions without asking you each time. Claude Code keeps a list of reasons auto mode can be off, which before covered a safety cut-off, fast mode and the model in use. That list now has one more entry, auto_mode_unavailable.
Why
This probably lets Claude Code report auto mode being unavailable on its own, instead of under one of the other reasons.
