What's Wrong?
Despite being in Bypass Permission Mode, Claude will still always require manual permissions for editing its' own memory files (which it should optimally do constantly and is fairly low risk, which makes this very annoying) aswell as updating its' own skill files.... For whatever reason the "Always allow edits of this kind" option does not show up here...
What Should Happen?
At least give us the option to always allow memory & skill edits.
