Unclear What a reader sees differently when moving between plan mode and auto mode.
What
Permission modes control how much Claude Code may do without asking you first. Plan mode is one where Claude plans before acting, and auto mode is one where it acts with fewer prompts. Claude Code now records which mode was active before you entered plan mode, and when that mode was auto mode it applies the auto mode settings as part of the switch. The check for whether auto mode is available was also rewritten.
Why
This touches how plan mode and auto mode interact when you move between them.
