I like auto mode but you need something like “If the auto mode classifier denies your request stop and ask the human, do not attempt to work around it “ in your CLAUDE.md. Without it it has a tendency to try rather creative solutions to work around the denial, which kind of misses the point.

My denials always have a reason like "FUCK YOU I already told you not to do that dumb shit! NO EDITS WITH SED" which tends to keep it in check.

Anthropic is batshit crazy if they think automode is ready for default-on-always when their clankers constantly fuck up. Did they survey the dumbest 1100 people that don't check the output carefully? The numbers in this article do NOT inspire confidence.
