I have a lot of different projects, scenarios, and edge cases where it's helpful to me.

I think you will find that if you're interactive mode there will always be some dialogs to dismiss, especially if you're jumping around a lot of different projects, etc. So for me the goals are somewhere at the intersection of the interactive mode and unattended operation.

It depends what your goals are for sure. TBH I use it mostly in full yolo mode. But toolsets are much more useful for me. I can create groups of mcps and pre-allowed permissions and reuse that "preset". I have different types of projects that I use different toolsets for each.

But yeah, I hear you. This is pretty niche and might solve problems that only I care about.

want to see this mode fail catastrophically? write enough CLI stuff w/ python w/ powershell or wsl or some other 'leaky' cli. It will eventually fail a command and then try to pipe a shell command through the python interpreter or a specific PS incantation.

This means that you now need to approve 'git' , and 'python sh git' and 'powershell.exe git' and 'wsl.exe ubuntu git' as separate and independent commands. (I dont remember the shell incantation command so excuse the pseudocode).

That means that for the entire gambit of approvals needed for continued permission for a singular task might be 4x greater than normal -- probably more given that claude is aware of so many different ways to pipe to shell..

It definitely could use some editing!

Been using $50-100 of Opus tokens through API access per day. Think I’ll hit the Max 20x limits and get put in timeout?

I wish Max could automatically overflow to API access when it times out so I would need to have token anxiety.

I thought you needed an API key to work with Claude Code

That's pretty much it and the concept of "toolsets"

Maybe, but personally I don't see a reason to use an LLM to release an npm module

I’m less worried about hostile behaviors than stupid ones.

I think the real use cases are something like:

1. Try cautious mode, gain confidence, switch to yolo 2. Use yolo mode and find that it keeps doing something that annoys or scares you so you configure an exception for it

On number 2 I thought I would use it this way to prevent some unwanted behavior but I ended up learning how to avoid those behaviors in other ways.

If you want to suggest anything specific feel free to open an issue and we explore it more.
