DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Disable Auto Mode via Settings

What

A new disableAutoMode setting that allows organizations or users to disable auto mode entirely.

Usage: Add to settings:

{
  "permissions": {
    "disableAutoMode": "disable"
  }
}
Details
  • When set, shows "auto mode disabled by settings" or "auto mode disabled: disableAutoMode in settings"
  • Also respects model-level and org-level restrictions: "auto mode disabled: model does not support auto mode", "auto mode disabled: org not in DAC allowlist"
  • New DAC (Documented Allowlisting Check) org allowlist system controls auto mode availability per organization
  • Auto mode state is tracked with new attachment types (auto_mode and auto_mode_exit) for proper context management
Evidence

New settings field and gate messages (search for "disableAutoMode", "auto mode disabled")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
