Claude's 'auto mode' feels like a solution to a problem that shouldn't exist.
Cursor handles this much better IMO. When the agent wants to run a command, Cursor lets you choose between 'allow once' and 'add command to allowlist'. The latter lets the agent run that command (grep, ls, pwd etc) any number of times for that project, which means you get a lot of these manual reviews when you start a new project but rarely (if ever) thereafter.

- CER10TY 2mo agoDoes Cursor allow you to blacklist certain commands as well? I know OpenCode has this, where you can both whitelist things like grep/ls but then also blacklist things like cat .env, or rm -rf. I usually copy paste my configs nowadays, so I very rarely get prompted for any permissions (except when using Claude, which somehow decided that all users live in ~/Users, even on Linux)
