Claude Code now has logic that makes such pending requests wait for an answer tied to a model switch. It is controlled by a server-side switch whose built-in default is on.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis may stop auto mode permission requests from being handled wrongly when you change models while one is waiting.\n\n- Flag `tengu_abundant_trinket`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.319; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: on) 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: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
