63| `toolName` | The name of the tool Claude wants to use (for example, `"Bash"`, `"Write"`, `"Edit"`) |

6464| `input` | The parameters Claude is passing to the tool. Contents vary by tool. |

6565| `options` (TS) / `context` (Python) | Additional context including optional `suggestions` (proposed `PermissionUpdate` entries to avoid re-prompting) and a cancellation signal. In TypeScript, `signal` is an `AbortSignal`; in Python, the signal field is reserved for future use. See [`ToolPermissionContext`](/docs/en/agent-sdk/python#toolpermissioncontext) for Python. |

214214Beyond allowing or denying, you can modify the tool's input or provide context that helps Claude adjust its approach:

215215

216216* **Approve**: let the tool execute as Claude requested

217* **Approve with changes**: modify the input before execution (e.g., sanitize paths, add constraints)

217* **Approve with changes**: modify the input before execution (for example, sanitize paths, add constraints)

218218* **Approve and remember**: echo a suggested permission rule back so matching calls skip the prompt next time

219219* **Reject**: block the tool and tell Claude why

220220* **Suggest alternative**: block but guide Claude toward what the user wants instead

501501 Build the `answers` object as a record where each key is the `question` text and each value is the selected option's `label`:

6486481. **Route the request**: The `canUseTool` callback checks if the tool name is `"AskUserQuestion"` and routes to a dedicated handler

6496492. **Display questions**: The handler loops through the `questions` array and prints each question with numbered options

6503. **Collect input**: The user can enter a number to select an option, or type free text directly (e.g., "jquery", "i don't know")

253253Claude Code copies each installed plugin into the local versioned plugin cache at `~/.claude/plugins/cache`, unless the plugin loads in place. A [`command` source in link mode](#copy-mode-and-link-mode) loads in place, and so does a [relative path source](#relative-paths) in a marketplace added from a local directory. Claude Code also [installs the plugin's eligible Node.js package dependencies](/docs/en/plugins-reference#node-js-package-dependencies) into the cached copy. See [Plugin caching and file resolution](/docs/en/plugins-reference#plugin-caching-and-file-resolution) for how a plugin loaded in place from a local-directory marketplace picks up your edits.

110110### Let the runner configure git

111111

from line 116

116116* `push.negotiate = true`, so git asks your git host which commits it already has before packing a push. Requires Claude Code v2.1.257 or later.

117117* `core.hooksPath` pointing at a runner-managed hooks directory. Its `commit-msg` and `prepare-commit-msg` hooks add a `Co-authored-by:` trailer for the session's creator to each commit, built from the email in [`CCR_SESSION_ACCOUNT_EMAIL`](/docs/en/self-hosted-environments-configuration#wrapper-scripts) and omitted when that variable is unset. If your image already sets `core.hooksPath`, the runner leaves your setting in place, skips installing these hooks, and prints a `[runner:git]` warning.

118118

119Commit signing requires git 2.34 or newer; the runner checks at startup and exits with an error if your git is older. This flag doesn't configure push credentials, which you still provide in the image.

157157Start the runner with `--use-anthropic-git-proxy`, or set `CLAUDE_RUNNER_USE_GIT_PROXY=1`, to have it clone through Anthropic's git proxy, authenticated with the session's own short-lived token. For ordinary user sessions, the proxy uses the GitHub or GitHub Enterprise OAuth token stored for the session creator; for bot and agent sessions, it uses your organization's GitHub App installation token. Either way, the runner image needs no git credentials at all: no SSH keys, no credential helper, no `.netrc`. This is the same auth path Anthropic-hosted environments use.

158158

159The proxy requires `--capacity 1` because the proxy URL is per-session, and git 2.32 or newer because older git ignores the configuration mechanism the proxy uses to isolate sessions from each other. The runner refuses to start if either requirement is unmet. Because the proxy fetches from Anthropic's side, your git host must be reachable from Anthropic infrastructure, the same requirement Anthropic-hosted sessions have; for a git host that's only routable inside your network, use a [`checkout` lifecycle hook](/docs/en/self-hosted-environments-configuration#checkout) instead. Each runner process handles one session at a time, so run more replicas for parallelism. When the proxy is enabled, `--git-host-rewrite` and `--git-ssh-rewrite` have no effect: the proxy URL points at `api.anthropic.com`, not your git host.

160160

161161The runner also reports the opt-in to Anthropic when it registers, printing `Registering as opted in to Anthropic-managed git (--use-anthropic-git-proxy)` at startup. Reporting the opt-in requires Claude Code v2.1.267 or later, and earlier versions accept the flag without reporting it or printing that line. Each session on an opted-in runner then uses either Anthropic-managed git or the per-session proxy URL. When a session uses the per-session proxy URL, the runner logs one `[runner:warn]` line saying so.

5454Most duration flags have a maximum, chosen to keep each timeout inside the runtime's 32-bit timer ceiling of roughly 24.85 days. The `--*-min` flags cap at 10080 minutes, 7 days; `--drain-grace-sec` at 604800 seconds, also 7 days; and `--drain-wait-sec` at 86400 seconds, 24 hours. `--session-stop-grace-sec` and `--post-session-hook-timeout-sec` are uncapped. Overrunning a cap behaves differently per surface:

10831083The Skills row in `/context` reports the size of the listing after the budget is applied, so it matches what the model receives. Before v2.1.196, the row counted the full text of every description and could show a value several times larger than the configured budget.

10841084

1085To raise the budget, set the [`skillListingBudgetFraction`](/docs/en/settings-reference#skilllistingbudgetfraction) setting (e.g. `0.02` = 2%) or the `SLASH_COMMAND_TOOL_CHAR_BUDGET` environment variable to a fixed character count. To free budget for other skills, set low-priority entries to `"name-only"` in [`skillOverrides`](#override-skill-visibility-from-settings) so they list without a description. You can also trim the `description` and `when_to_use` text at the source: put the key use case first, since each entry's combined text is capped at 1,536 characters regardless of budget. The cap is configurable with [`skillListingMaxDescChars`](/docs/en/settings-reference#skilllistingmaxdescchars).
