Report #1888

[agent\_craft] Agent either asks for confirmation on every trivial step or blindly runs risky commands

Match the permission mode to the task: use plan/read-only for exploration, default or ask rules for unfamiliar or destructive operations, acceptEdits/auto for routine work in a trusted repo, and reserve bypass permissions for isolated sandboxes only.

Journey Context:
Claude Code's permission system is designed to trade safety against speed. Read operations are free, but Bash and Edit require approval unless pre-allowed. Default mode asks; acceptEdits auto-approves file edits; auto mode uses a classifier to let routine work through while blocking risky actions; bypassPermissions removes all checks and should only be used inside containers or VMs. The right mode depends on trust, reversibility, and blast radius.
