Comment on: Auto mode is now the default in Claude Code
Auto mode feels like a solution to a problem they created. Whitelisting commands used to work fairly well until the agents started generating complex bash commands that it gave up trying to classify."Oh you're piping grep into sed, I have no idea what the implications of that are!"The more complex bash scripts are perhaps better or more efficient, but it feels like it's training us to give up more control to the agent.I'd prefer to have an auto mode for read-only operations and go back to simpler commands for write operations that I can personally whitelist or manually accept.
