The Default in a Trust Prompt

Two folder-trust prompts ask for confirmation, but their selected defaults take the user in different directions.

I noticed a small difference in two folder-trust prompts. Codex had “Trust and continue” selected. Claude Code had “No, exit” selected.

Both still ask for confirmation, but pressing Enter takes you in different directions. One puts continuing on the default path; the other requires changing the selection to trust the folder.

A small safety-design detail, not enough on its own to judge which tool is safer.

Was this useful?

What was missing?

Thanks for the feedback.
