Unclear Which permission modes skip this approval is not stated.
What
Project docs are documents Claude Code keeps as knowledge about your project. Saving or deleting one used to be allowed without asking. Now Claude Code asks for approval when text from other people may have reached the model during the turn. The prompt says: "A save or delete of a project doc. It needs a person's approval, because text from other people may have reached you in this turn."
An always-allow rule cannot approve this request, so a person has to answer it each time. In some permission modes the check is skipped.
Why
Text from other people, such as a web page or a message, could contain hidden instructions telling the model to change your project knowledge. This is called prompt injection. Asking a person first stops that text from quietly saving or deleting project docs.
