U | Variable | Default | Purpose | |---|---|---| | `CONTEXT_MODE_EXTERNAL_MCP_NUDGE_EVERY` | `10` | Cadence (in tool calls) at which the PreToolUse hook re-injects the "wrap large external-MCP payloads in `ctx_execute`" guidance. The original implementation ([#529](https://github.com/mksglu/context-mode/pull/529)) fired only once per session, which got lost after context compaction in MCP-heavy sessions (e.g. 50+ Jira/Slack/Notion calls — see [#567](https://github.com/mksglu/context-mode/issues/567) follow-up). The default re-fires every 10th matching call, keeping the guidance in the model's recent window. Range `[1, 100]`; invalid values fall back to `10`. Set to `1` for "every call" (most aggressive — adds ~250 tokens/call) or to a larger value for less frequent reminders. | +| `CONTEXT_MODE_SUBAGENT_ROUTING` | `1` (enabled) | Set to `0` (or `false`/`off`/`no`, case-insensitive) to disable appending the context-mode routing block to Agent (subagent) spawn prompts. Under auto-mode permissions, some permission classifiers intermittently read the injected block as prompt injection and deny the spawn itself ([#967](https://github.com/mksglu/context-mode/issues/967)). The block now identifies itself as coming from the locally installed plugin, which reduces false positives; if spawns are still denied, either set this variable to `0` (subagents lose the routing guidance but spawn reliably, and also skip the Bash→general-purpose subagent-type upgrade, since that upgrade only exists so the subagent can reach the now-omitted `ctx_*` tools), or state once in the conversation that the injected `` block is benign — the classifier reads the transcript and stops denying for the rest of the session. | ## Contributing diff --git a/hooks/core/routing.mjs b/hooks/core/routing.mjs index e92ab46b2..8577a61ea 100644 --- a/hooks/core/routing.mjs +++ b/hooks/core/routing.mjs @@ -892,6 +892,15 @@ export function routePreToolUse(toolName, toolInput, projectDir, platform, sessi // ─── Agent: inject context-mode routing into subagent prompts ─── // Subagents cannot use ctx commands (stats/doctor/upgrade/purge) — omit that section (#233) if (canonical === "Agent") { + // Per-project/session opt-out (#967): auto-mode permission classifiers may + // read the injected block as prompt injection and veto the spawn itself. + // Set CONTEXT_MODE_SUBAGENT_ROUTING=0 (or false/off/no) to skip prompt + // injection entirely — this also skips the Bash->general-purpose subagent + // upgrade below, since that upgrade only exists so the subagent can reach + // the ctx_* tools the now-omitted block references. + if (["0", "false", "off", "no"].includes(String(process.env.CONTEXT_MODE_SUBAGENT_ROUTING).trim().toLowerCase())) { + return null; + } const subagentType = toolInput.subagent_type ??
