Source Intelligence

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.

Remote approval answers may carry a rules block, and a bad one is skipped

Remote Approvals Notable

Remote approval answers may carry their own permission rules, capped and dropped if unreadable.

What

The format for a remote host's "needs approval" answer gained an optional block of its own permission rules. Each line is cleaned up and whitespace-collapsed, and both the count and the length of lines are capped: the allow and environment lists keep the first entries, the deny lists the last. A block that cannot be read is dropped and the request is still judged, rather than failing.

Evidence

[remote-tools] dropped an unreadable auto_mode block from a needs_approval answer; the ask is judged without it

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