"Accept all edits during this session" doesn't persist - keeps asking for permission
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Jan 30, 2026 by hllvc Closed Feb 18, 2026
When Claude Code is in "accept edits" mode and I select "Yes, allow all edits during this session", it continues to ask for permission on subsequent edit operations instead of auto-accepting them.
Steps to reproduce
- Start Claude Code
- Enable "accept edits" mode
- When prompted for an edit, select "Yes, allow all edits during this session"
- Continue working - Claude Code asks for edit permission again on the next edit
Expected behavior
After selecting "Yes, allow all edits during this session", all subsequent Edit/Write operations should be auto-accepted without prompting.
Actual behavior
Permission prompts continue to appear for each edit operation.
Environment
- Claude Code version: 2.1.25
- OS: macOS 26.2 (Build 25C56)
- Platform: darwin
