1717A session begins with a fresh sandbox and no repository checked out. Your repository's Claude Code configuration takes effect only after Claude clones the repository, which happens when your message names a repository that an admin has [granted to the channel](/docs/claude-tag/admins/configure-github#grant-repository-access).

19| Step | What applies |
20| :-------------------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
21| You tag `@Claude` with a task | Your message is the task, and Claude starts work in a sandbox with no repository |
22| Your message names a granted repository | Claude clones it into the sandbox |
23| The clone completes | `CLAUDE.md`, `.claude/CLAUDE.md`, `.claude/rules/*.md`, and the skills in `.claude/skills/` [load into the session](/docs/claude-tag/admins/configure-github#what-loads-from-a-repository) |

39| `/model` | An admin sets the [default model per channel](/docs/claude-tag/admins/customize#choose-the-model-for-a-scope), and you can [switch models in a thread](/docs/claude-tag/users/models) |
40| Effort level | Not configurable. Sessions run at the model's default effort. |
41| MCP servers in `.mcp.json` | Not loaded, even when `.mcp.json` is checked into the repository. A session reaches external services only through the [connections an admin set for the channel](/docs/claude-tag/admins/add-connections), and each connection holds that service's credentials. |
42| Secrets and API keys in your environment | An admin provisions them as channel connections. The raw key never enters the sandbox. It is [added to requests at the network layer](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/agent-identity#agent-proxy). |
43| Environment variables | An admin sets them on the [environment the channel's sessions run on](/docs/claude-tag/admins/customize#configure-the-environment-for-a-scope), and every session in the channel reads them. There is no per-person environment to customize. The values are readable in every session on the environment, so ask an admin to add secrets as connections instead. |
44| A personal `settings.json` | Not loaded. |
45| A setup script for your workspace | An admin sets a setup script on the [environment the channel's sessions run on](/docs/claude-tag/admins/customize#configure-the-environment-for-a-scope), and what it installs is in place when each session in the channel starts. For setup that belongs to one repository, use `CLAUDE.md` [install steps](/docs/claude-tag/admins/configure-github#install-project-dependencies) instead. |
46| Permission prompts | Sessions run in auto mode, where Claude's permission checker reviews each action and can stop it. An admin pre-approves routine actions with [auto mode allow rules](/docs/claude-tag/admins/customize#auto-mode-allow-rules) instead of you approving in the moment. |

4848To change what a session can reach for everyone, ask an admin to [add a connection](/docs/claude-tag/admins/add-connections). The change applies to every session in the channel.
