DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Claude Code v2.1.242

An every-app grant mode that must ship with a denylist

Not switched on
Useful2 Signal4
Computer Use Notable

There is a grant mode treating every app as allowed except ones on a denylist.

An all-apps-granted tier with a required denylist is defined within the host-dependent per-app control feature.

What

Besides granting named applications, there is now a mode that treats every application as granted at the full tier except those a denylist excludes, and it skips the step that hides windows before acting.

Details
  • Constructing it with an empty denylist throws at runtime on purpose; the code calls that a wiring bug.
  • It is only used where the host program supplies an every-app policy. The default behaviour, granting specific apps, is unchanged.
Evidence

WildcardGrantSet: deniedBundleIds must be non-empty

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
