If your permission rules and `autoMode` settings together come to more than about 1 MB, auto mode is now unavailable and Claude Code says why: they are too large to send to the checker. The message suggests shortening the deny and ask rules under permissions.\n\n**Why**\n\nAuto mode refusing to run is no longer a mystery, and you know which rules to trim.\n\n- Area: Auto Mode\n- Names: `autoMode`\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: yes"}
