Claude Code v2.1.246 ·

Editing a file in a denied directory gets its own error

Touching a file in a directory your settings exclude now says exactly that, not a generic denial.

What

Attempts to read or write a file under a directory excluded by your permission settings now say so directly instead of falling back to the generic deny-rule wording.

Details
  • Fixed string, no gate, sitting beside the existing read-deny messages.
Evidence

File is in a directory that is denied by your permission settings.

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