What happens
In auto mode, every DesignSync upload to a claude.ai/design design-system project shows a confirmation prompt, repeatedly within the same session:
Design: Upload design system (4 to upload)(...)
Review what will be uploaded before continuing.
Do you want to proceed?
> 1. Yes
2. No
This blocks autonomous runs of the /design-sync flow: each component upload waits for a manual "Yes".
Expected
No prompt, because the tool is explicitly allowed and auto mode is on. Or at least a "Yes, don't ask again for this session/project" option.
Settings (~/.claude/settings.json)
{
"permissions": {
"allow": ["DesignSync"],
"defaultMode": "auto"
},
"skipAutoPermissionPrompt": true,
"autoMode": {
"allow": ["$defaults", "DesignSync"]
}
}
The allow rules for DesignSync in both permissions.allow and autoMode.allow have no effect on this prompt.
Repro
- Use the settings above.
- Start a session in auto mode and run the
/design-syncskill against a design-system project on claude.ai/design. - Every upload call prompts for confirmation.
Environment
- Claude Code 2.1.285
- macOS (Darwin 25.6.0)
