When it finishes, an \"Exit plan mode?\" dialog asks whether to go ahead. Claude Code has several permission modes, which control how often Claude stops to ask before acting. Auto mode is one of them, and default mode is the standard one.\n\nThe plain \"yes\" option on that dialog used to always switch you to default mode. It now returns you to auto mode in either of these cases:\n\n- You switched into plan mode from auto mode.\n\n- The model in use needs auto or plan mode.\n\nIn every other case, \"yes\" still goes to default mode.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis changes which permission mode you are in after you approve a plan. If you start in auto mode and step into plan mode for one task, approving the plan now puts you back where you started instead of quietly dropping you into default mode, where Claude asks before more of its actions.\n\n- Area: Plan Mode\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: yes"}
