Claude Code version v2.1.211 has fixed a critical bug where its auto mode would silently override user-configured PreToolUse hooks designed to prompt before executing unsandboxed Bash commands. Previously, if a hook returned an 'ask' decision, the auto mode would ignore it and proceed with the command, bypassing a crucial safety guardrail. This issue was particularly concerning because unsandboxed Bash is the highest-risk tool an agent can access, making the bypass a significant security vulnerability that eroded trust in safety configurations.
