Configure permissions in settings.json by setting tool access modes to ask, allow, or deny for each tool. Restrict dangerous commands by denying them explicitly, enabling only essential tools your workflow requires. This prevents accidental data leakage and system compromise.

Store sensitive values as environment variable references in settings.json rather than hardcoding secrets directly. Claude Code reads these references at runtime, keeping credentials out of configuration files and reducing exposure risk.

Create a settings.json file defining permission modes, environment variables, and pre/post-run hooks before initializing sessions. Set explicit tool permission patterns and configure denial rules for dangerous commands upfront to secure the project from the start.

Yes, configure pre-run and post-run hooks in settings.json to execute validation or logging logic around tool execution. Hooks enforce security policies at session initialization and command completion, preventing unauthorized operations.

Deny broad file system access, unrestricted command execution, and any tools not explicitly required by your workflow. Review the full permission matrix in settings.json and apply deny mode to dangerous commands that could expose secrets or modify protected resources.

Yes, Claude Code supports granular permission modes—ask, allow, and deny—per tool in settings.json. Assign ask mode to tools requiring explicit approval, allow mode to trusted essential tools, and deny mode to dangerous or unused tools.
