Each entry is either a plain path string or an object with these fields: -| Field | Description | -| ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -| `path` | The folder path (required). Subfolders are included. | -| `mode` | `rw` (the default) or `ro`. The agent can view and search a read-only folder but cannot modify it in Cowork. In Code sessions, read-only applies to Claude's file tools only; shell commands and SSH sessions do not enforce it. | -| `isDefaultSelected` | When `true`, the folder appears already selected on the new-task page and skips the trust prompt. Users can remove it. | +| Field | Description | +| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | +| `path` | The folder path (required).
