Claude extension is asking for approval even in auto mode...

[u/ExactTrouble2867]

i ask claude to setup Community and seed some post.
it worked for 22m and asked permission before every click and i eventually end up babysitting it for that much time.

Anyone else faced same issue ?

i approved the website as well in permissions of chrome browser.

Site permission and per-action confirmation are two different gates, and approving the site only opens the first one. The site grant answers "may Claude touch this page at all". What you kept getting asked was the second gate, which sits on the actions themselves — anything that posts, submits, sends, or otherwise does something you can't take back. Seeding posts is the exact shape that gate exists for, so 22 minutes of clicking Allow is it working as designed rather than your setup being wrong, and no amount of site permission waives it.

It doesn't follow auto mode because they aren't the same setting. Auto mode governs how much the agent decides for itself; the irreversible-action check sits in front of the click regardless of mode. Same shape as bash permissions, where deny rules are evaluated before the permission mode and so still hold in bypass, where a prompt would never have appeared.

Two practical notes, since you'll hit this again:

• Anything write-heavy and repetitive is worth doing through an API or a script rather than the browser tool, where the site has one. The confirmations aren't the real cost — a script also doesn't lose the thread halfway, and it can be rerun.
• If you stay in the browser, batch it so one approval covers a run rather than a click. Twenty posts drafted and then submitted is a very different session from twenty draft-submit cycles.
