Actions on a safe allowlist can skip that check. Before, skipping depended only on the allowlist. Now a tool from an MCP server can also skip the check when some extra conditions pass. MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers are add-ons that give Claude Code extra tools.\n\nThe usage report Claude Code sends when a server's context is out of date now also records which connectors were stale.\n\n**Why**\n\nFor the MCP tools this covers, auto mode makes fewer classifier calls, so those actions run without the extra check.\n\n- Flag `tengu_radiant_hare`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.309; this account: off, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Auto Mode\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
