claude_auto — Run Claude Code Without Permission Prompts

What It Does

claude_auto is a shell alias/function that launches Claude Code with the --dangerously-skip-permissions flag. Claude Code runs without prompting for approval on tool calls (file edits, bash commands, etc.) — everything is auto-approved.

Useful for hands-off workflows where you trust Claude to execute freely. Use at your own risk — Claude can run any command, edit any file, and make destructive changes without asking.

. $PROFILE

Command Prompt (cmd.exe)
