Adds Claude Code's auto permission mode as a fifth option between Accept Edits and Bypass, across terminals, resumed sessions, the tab badge, the scheduler task runner and docs. Warns that Auto falls back to prompting when unavailable for the model/backend.

**Auto** sits between Accept Edits and Bypass: Claude Code's own classifier reviews each action,
lets routine work through and blocks things that look risky (such as destructive or
exfiltrating commands) — no prompts either way. Whether it is available depends on your Claude
Code account, model and backend (local and OpenAI-compatible backends usually won't
qualify). When it isn't available, Claude Code quietly starts in its normal prompting mode
instead.
### When a change takes effect
- **Terminals** — the mode is applied when a terminal is opened, so it affects terminals you open
from then on. A Claude session that is already running keeps the permissions it started with;
close the tab and open a new terminal to change it. The badge on each terminal tab shows the mode
that terminal was launched with (`plan`, `ask`, `edits`, `bypass`).
