What
When Claude Code checks whether a Bash command is allowed by your permission rules, it now also recognizes commands written as cd <folder> && <command> as matching a rule written for the bare <command>, as long as the folder matches the current working directory.
Why
Before this, a permission rule written for a plain command could fail to match if Claude first changed directory and chained the command with &&, even though the actual working directory was the same one the rule expected. This closes that gap so such commands are recognized correctly.
