FAQPage Schema
How do I manage command execution approvals and allowlists for Crab Claw deployments?

Verify current command approvals and allowlists by running the Crab Claw approvals get command after importing rules. This displays active permission patterns, showing global or workspace scopes and any agent or node restrictions currently enforced.

Can I import approval policies from YAML or JSON files to enforce consistent behavior?

YAML or JSON import enables you to set allowlist patterns with scoped targeting, enforcing consistent command execution behaviors across global or workspace levels and specific agents or nodes within an L1-L3 security model.

What is the L1-L3 security model for command allowlists?

The L1-L3 security model structures command allowlists by applying scoped targeting across global or workspace levels, with optional agent and node restrictions to govern local commands, gateway-dispatched operations, and remote approval workflows.

How do I apply per-pattern matching with scopes for command approvals?

Apply per-pattern matching by adding or removing allowlist patterns with scoped targeting, configuring them as either global or workspace level, and applying optional agent or node restrictions to align with your security governance workflows.

Does Crab Claw support remote approval notifications and capability governance?

Yes, Crab Claw supports auditing and aligning with remote approval notifications and capability governance workflows, integrating gateway-dispatched operations and remote approvals into your centralized command execution security model.
