Plain English Rules Set Claude Code Auto Mode
Users report configuring Claude Code auto mode with plain English and testing effects on its classifier.
Boris Cherny shared a post from Lydia Hallie stating that Claude Code auto mode accepts configuration in plain English. A separate classifier model reviews each proposed action. In a related post, user rain noted that naming the anime character Kyubey inside an agents.md file appeared to reduce annoying output from Claude while increasing flags from the classifier. Both observations come from public posts on X about the tool's behavior.

btw you can configure auto mode in Claude Code in plain English the classifier is a separate model that reviews each action, so it just reads these rules when deciding what to allow/block. adding "$defaults" keeps the built-in rules as well!
it seems naming kyubey in my agents.md is making claude less annoying and the classifier more concerned
