Unclear It is not known which kinds of spawned sessions these argument changes apply to.
What
--dangerously-skip-permissions skips permission prompts, and --permission-mode starts a session in a chosen permission mode. Claude Code has changed how it arranges these flags when it starts another session of its own:
dropping: if a --permission-mode flag comes later in the list, --dangerously-skip-permissions is removed.
This changes which permission mode wins in a child session when both flags are passed, so an explicitly chosen mode can take precedence over skipping prompts.
