Plan mode exit only offers "auto" — no option to return to bypass permissions mode

Problem

When running Claude Code with --dangerously-skip-permissions (bypass mode) and entering plan mode, the ExitPlanMode dialog only offers "accept and run in auto mode." There is no option to accept the plan and continue in bypass mode — the mode I was in before entering plan mode.

This forces a permission-mode downgrade as the only way to proceed, which effectively makes plan mode unusable for users who run in bypass.

Expected

Exiting plan mode should return to the prior permission mode (bypass), or at minimum offer it as an option alongside auto.

Repro

  1. Start Claude Code with --dangerously-skip-permissions
  2. Enter plan mode (Shift+Tab or /plan)
  3. Let Claude produce a plan and call ExitPlanMode
  4. Observe: only "accept and run in auto mode" is offered

Version

2.1.112 (Claude Code)
