Anthropic dropped three features for Claude Code on Monday, but the interesting one is auto mode. Until now you had two choices: approve every single file write and bash command manually, or use the skip permissions flag which lets the AI do whatever it wants. Auto mode sits in the middle. An AI safety classifier evaluates every tool call in real time. Routine stuff like writing files and running tests gets auto approved. Destructive operations like mass deletion or data exfiltration get blocked. The catch is that Anthropic hasn't published what the classifier allows or blocks.
