Its description has been rewritten:\n\n- In the terminal, leaving the setting unset means Claude does not auto-continue.\n\n- The desktop and web apps may move on from unanswered questions.\n\n- Only the \"never\" choice stops them from doing so.\n\nBefore, the description said the setting defaults to never and auto-continue only runs when set to 60s, 5m or 10m.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe description now matches how this behaves. If you use the desktop or web app and never want Claude to move on without you, choose \"never\".\n\n- Area: Settings\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
