# Claude Code makes Auto mode the default permission mode

Users can run /auto-mode-setup to review trusted repos and domains, and switch modes anytime with Shift+Tab.

- Users who already set a default mode will be asked before any change
- Switch modes anytime with Shift+Tab, or pin one with "defaultMode" in settings
- The classifier reviews the repo to suggest trusted repos and domains for safe execution

## Why it matters

Claude Code users on Pro, Max, and Team plans get a permission system that classifies safe actions automatically, cutting manual approval prompts.
