What probably matters to youSection of the release

Unclear How many refusals, or what pattern of them, counts as a run that ends the turn is not known.

What

The permissions.denyInsteadOfPrompting setting makes Claude Code refuse actions rather than ask you to approve them. When a run of refusals happens, Claude Code now denies outright and ends the turn. The reason given is "permissions.denyInsteadOfPrompting stopped a run of refusals".

Ask and deny rules that apply only to the current session are also now kept track of from a saved record.

Why

This matters for runs with nobody watching. Instead of refusing action after action, Claude Code stops the turn.
