What's Wrong?

Environment:

  • Claude Code 2.1.131
  • Windows, ConEmu x64
  • Max plan, Opus 4.7

Steps:

  1. Ran claude --enable-auto-mode
  2. Ran claude auto-mode config — returns full Auto Mode config (allow/soft_deny/environment lists)
  3. Restarted Claude Code
  4. Shift+Tab only cycles between: "accept edits on", "plan mode on", "? for shortcuts"
  5. /permission-mode auto and /mode auto both return "Args from unknown skill"
  6. /permissions shows tabs (Recently denied, Allow, Ask, Deny, Workspace) but no mode toggle

Expected: Auto mode appears in Shift+Tab cycle and/or in /permissions
Actual: Auto mode is configured but not accessible from the session

(Reason for needing to do all this in the first place: the "always allow" choice from interactive permission prompts also doesn't persist — every session re-prompts for the same commands.)

What Should Happen?

Auto mode appears in Shift+Tab cycle and/or in /permissions

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install/update Claude Code to 2.1.131
  2. From a terminal, run claude --enable-auto-mode
  3. Start a Claude Code session in any project directory: claude
  4. Select Opus 4.7 via /model
  5. Press Shift+Tab to cycle permission modes
  6. Try /permission-mode auto in the session
  7. Try /permissions and look for a mode toggle
