14401440 
1441List the tool uses Claude Code blocks. Use it for files that hold API keys, secrets, or environment values: Claude Code excludes matching files from file discovery and search results, denies reads of them, and blocks the [Edit and Write tools](/docs/en/permissions#read-and-edit) on the matching paths. Read and Edit deny rules apply to Claude's built-in file tools and to file commands Claude Code recognizes in Bash, such as `cat`, `head`, `tail`, and `sed`; they don't apply to arbitrary subprocesses, so for OS-level enforcement [enable the sandbox](/docs/en/sandboxing).

30723072### `keybindingFlavor`
30733073 
3074Choose which convention `Ctrl+W` follows in the prompt input. Set it to `"readline"` to make `Ctrl+W` delete back to the previous whitespace, as Bash does, so a path or a `--flag=value` goes in one press. Requires Claude Code v2.1.238 or later.
3074<Warning>
3075 Deprecated since v2.1.261 and has no effect. The prompt's word-editing keys always [follow readline conventions](/docs/en/interactive-mode#make-ctrl-w-delete-back-to-whitespace), as in Bash. Claude Code still accepts `keybindingFlavor`, so a settings file that sets it stays valid.
3076</Warning>
30753077 
3078In v2.1.238 through v2.1.260, setting it to `"readline"` made `Ctrl+W` delete back to the previous whitespace instead of only the previous word.

3077* **Type**: string, one of:
3078 * `"classic"`: `Ctrl+W` deletes the previous word
3079 * `"readline"`: `Ctrl+W` deletes back to the previous whitespace
3080* **Default**: `"classic"`
3081* **Type**: string, `"classic"` or `"readline"`
