Context

Among dozens of changes in Anthropic's Claude Code v2.1.304, the one with the clearest stakes is a fix to `claude --worktree`, the option that runs a session in its own git worktree, a separate working copy of the repository on its own branch (GitHub). According to the release notes, when a session ended with the worktree's HEAD detached or switched to a different branch, Claude Code removed the worktree and its branch at exit without asking, which could lose commits. This release fixes that behavior.

The same release also expands `/auto-mode-setup`, the guided setup that reads a project and recent sessions to teach auto mode about the environment, so it is available on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, the Claude apps gateway and telemetry-disabled sessions, and it adds an option for mods to require that only a person, through the permission dialog or a host callback, can approve a flagged tool call.
