Type of Behavior Issue

Claude modified files I didn't ask it to modify

What You Asked Claude to Do

I get this error:

● Write(/media/<me>/<file path>)
⎿  Error: claude-sonnet-5[1m] is temporarily unavailable, so auto mode cannot determine the safety of Write right now. Wait briefly and then try this action again. If it keeps failing, continue with other tasks that don't require this
action and come back to it later. Note: reading files, searching code, and other read-only operations do not require the classifier and can still be used.

but my model is opus 4.8

AND

/usage reports that I have not used sonnet ....
Does this mean my tokens delegated to sonnet are counted against opus 4.8 (i.e. higher rate) ?

What Claude Actually Did

The issue in not the one I am reporting, issue on how model consumption is reported or counted when one model delegates a task to another model.

Reopened — thanks for the pushback, you're right that this isn't the same issue. Sorry for the noise.
