5858| `--agent` | Specify an agent for the current session (overrides the `agent` setting) | `claude --agent my-custom-agent` |
5959| `--agents` | Define custom subagents dynamically via JSON. Accepts the [fields listed for CLI-defined subagents](/docs/en/sub-agents#choose-the-subagent-scope) | `claude --agents '{"reviewer":{"description":"Reviews code","prompt":"You are a code reviewer"}}'` |
6060| `--allow-dangerously-skip-permissions` | Add `bypassPermissions` to the `Shift+Tab` mode cycle without starting in it. Lets you begin in a different mode like `plan` and switch to `bypassPermissions` later. See [permission modes](/docs/en/permission-modes#skip-all-checks-with-bypasspermissions-mode) | `claude --permission-mode plan --allow-dangerously-skip-permissions` |
61| `--allowedTools`, `--allowed-tools` | Tools that execute without prompting for permission. See [permission rule syntax](/docs/en/settings#permission-rule-syntax) for pattern matching. To restrict which tools are available, use `--tools` instead | `"Bash(git log *)" "Bash(git diff *)" "Read"` |
61| `--allowedTools`, `--allowed-tools` | Tools that execute without prompting for permission. See [permission rule syntax](/docs/en/settings#permission-rule-syntax) for pattern matching. To restrict which tools are available, use `--tools` instead. If you name one of the [task-tracking tools](/docs/en/tools-reference#task-tool-availability) here, Claude Code also opts the session in | `"Bash(git log *)" "Bash(git diff *)" "Read"` |
6262| `--append-subagent-system-prompt` | Append custom text to the end of every [subagent](/docs/en/sub-agents)'s system prompt, nested subagents included, apart from a [forked subagent](/docs/en/sub-agents#fork-the-current-conversation), which reuses the conversation's own prompt. Only applies in non-interactive mode with `-p`. Requires Claude Code v2.1.205 or later | `claude -p --append-subagent-system-prompt "Cite file paths in every answer" "query"` |
6363| `--append-system-prompt` | Append custom text to the end of the default system prompt | `claude --append-system-prompt "Always use TypeScript"` |
6464| `--append-system-prompt-file` | Load additional system prompt text from a file and append to the default prompt | `claude --append-system-prompt-file ./extra-rules.txt` |

124124| `--teleport` | Resume a [web session](/docs/en/claude-code-on-the-web) in your local terminal | `claude --teleport` |
125125| `--teammate-mode` | Set how [agent team](/docs/en/agent-teams) teammates display: `in-process` (default), `auto`, `tmux`, or `iterm2` (added in v2.1.186). Overrides the [`teammateMode`](/docs/en/settings#available-settings) setting for this session. See [Choose a display mode](/docs/en/agent-teams#choose-a-display-mode) | `claude --teammate-mode auto` |
126126| `--tmux` | Create a tmux session for the worktree. Requires `--worktree`. Uses iTerm2 native panes when available; pass `--tmux=classic` for traditional tmux | `claude -w feature-auth --tmux` |
127| `--tools` | Restrict which built-in tools Claude can use. Use `""` to disable all, `"default"` for all, or tool names like `"Bash,Edit,Read"`. The flag doesn't affect MCP tools; to deny those too, use `--disallowedTools "mcp__*"`. A list that omits [`EndConversation`](/docs/en/tools-reference#endconversation-tool-behavior) doesn't remove it; `""` removes it only when no MCP tools remain | `claude --tools "Bash,Edit,Read"` |

128128| `--verbose` | Enable verbose logging, shows full turn-by-turn output. Overrides the [`viewMode`](/docs/en/settings#available-settings) setting for this session | `claude --verbose` |
129129| `--version`, `-v` | Output the version number | `claude -v` |
130130| `--worktree`, `-w` | Start Claude in an isolated [git worktree](/docs/en/worktrees) at `<repo>/.claude/worktrees/<name>`. If you don't give a name, Claude Code generates one. Pass `#<number>`, a GitHub pull request URL, or a GitLab merge request URL to [fetch that PR or MR from `origin` and branch the worktree from it](/docs/en/worktrees#branch-from-a-pull-request). Branching from a GitLab merge request requires Claude Code v2.1.233 or later | `claude -w feature-auth` |
