274274A developer's own settings files, `--settings` values, and project files never override a managed value; the [exceptions](/docs/en/settings#exceptions-to-managed-settings-precedence) only let a stricter lower-level value count. These cases sit outside that rule:
275275 
276276* **The model for a session**: a managed `model` is a default, not a lock. `--model` and `ANTHROPIC_MODEL` still pick the model for that session, so deploy [`availableModels`](/docs/en/settings-reference#availablemodels) to restrict the choice.
277* **The auto-compact window for a session**: a managed [`autoCompactWindow`](/docs/en/settings-reference#autocompactwindow) is a default too. The `--autocompact` flag and the `CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_COMPACT_WINDOW` variable still set the [auto-compact window](/docs/en/model-config#set-the-auto-compact-window) for that session.
277278* **Local admin rights**: a developer who is an administrator on the machine can edit the managed source itself, which is why MDM tooling can redeploy the profile or file on a schedule and why the HKLM registry and the macOS managed preferences domain exist.
278279* **The server-managed cache**: server-managed settings come from Anthropic's servers, and an edit to the local cache [lasts only until the next successful fetch](/docs/en/server-managed-settings#security-considerations).
279280* **Other tools**: managed settings bind Claude Code only. A developer who calls the API from another tool isn't under them.
