Nearest release: v2.1.318, published 20 hours before upstream edited the page. Shown because the two are within 24 hours of each other. Nothing here says the release caused the edit.

12111211Returns a `PermissionResult` (either `PermissionResultAllow` or `PermissionResultDeny`).

1213The callback is the SDK replacement for the interactive permission prompt: it's invoked only when the [permission evaluation flow](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-sdk/permissions.md#how-permissions-are-evaluated) resolves to a prompt. Tool calls already approved by an `allowed_tools` entry, a settings allow rule, or the permission mode, such as `acceptEdits` or `bypassPermissions`, never invoke it. To gate every tool call, use a [`PreToolUse` hook](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-sdk/hooks) instead.
1213The callback replaces the interactive permission prompt. The SDK calls `can_use_tool` when the [permission evaluation flow](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-sdk/permissions.md#how-permissions-are-evaluated) resolves to a prompt. Calls approved in either of these ways run without calling `can_use_tool`:
12141214 
1215* A call that an `allowed_tools` entry or a settings allow rule approves
1216* A call the permission mode approves, such as a file edit in `acceptEdits` mode
1217 
1218To check those calls, use a [`PreToolUse` hook](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-sdk/hooks), which runs for them too.
1219 
12151220An allow rule doesn't pre-approve the [actions no mode auto-approves](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/permission-modes.md#actions-no-mode-auto-approves); see [How permissions are evaluated](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-sdk/permissions.md#how-permissions-are-evaluated) for which of them reach the callback and what happens in `dontAsk` and `auto` mode.
