What

AskUserQuestion is the tool Claude uses to ask you a multiple-choice question. Its dialog has always included an 'Other' row where you can type your own answer. The dialog now accepts a hideOtherRow setting.

  • When hideOtherRow is set, the 'Other' free-text row is left out.
  • The remaining options are renumbered to fill the gap, including the 'Chat about this' option.
  • Pasting is turned off for that view.
  • hideOtherRow is set when the question is an engine-confirm prompt (isEngineConfirm) and comes from one particular source.

Why

Some confirmation questions will now only let you pick one of the listed choices, with no way to type a different answer. If an option you expected is missing, this is why.
