In Claude Code, the Auto-Copy (Copy on Select) feature can be disabled using the /config command inside the interactive terminal.
To turn it off:

  1. Open your terminal and start a Claude Code session.
  2. Type /config and press Enter.
  3. Navigate to the Copy on Select toggle using your arrow keys and turn it to Off.
  4. Save the configuration and exit.
