Auto mode stays greyed out after switching model from Fable 5 to Opus 5
Summary
After switching the model from Fable 5 to Opus 5, the Auto permission mode
stays disabled in the "Select mode" sheet, greyed out with the label *"Not available for
the selected model"* — even though the selected model is now Opus 5, which does support
Auto.
The gating appears to be stale: it still reflects the previously selected model
(Fable 5) rather than the current one. Reopening the mode sheet does not clear it.
Steps to reproduce
- Open the model picker and select Fable 5.
- Reopen the model picker and switch to Opus 5.
- Open the Select mode sheet.
- Auto is greyed out and reads "Not available for the selected model".
Expected
With Opus 5 selected, Auto should be selectable.
Actual
Auto is greyed out and labelled unavailable for the selected model. The model sheet
concurrently shows Opus 5 as the checked model, so the two sheets disagree about which
model is active.
Environment
- Claude Code 2.1.235
- Linux 7.0.0-30-generic (Ubuntu), x86_64
- Effort setting: Medium (varying it does not appear to be the relevant factor)
- Current permission mode: Accept edits
Notes
The switch away from Fable 5 immediately preceded the problem, which is what points at a
stale model reference in whatever computes mode availability rather than at Opus 5 itself.
