What's Wrong?

When there's an active agents view and from another active CC instance we run /bg , the session gets pushed there. But if that session was in plan mode it looses that mode.

What Should Happen?

When running /bg it should respect the current mode of CC (plan mode)

Error Messages/Logs

Thanks for the clear repro — confirmed and fixed. /bg (and the ←← detach gesture) now propagate the active permission mode to the background worker, so plan/acceptEdits/auto carry over instead of resetting to default.

Ships in v2.1.141 (tomorrow). Appreciate the report!
