What

When Claude Code can't fully parse the structure of a bash command to check permissions, it now runs a secondary check that scans the raw command text for cd directory changes and file reads, comparing any resulting paths against configured Read/Edit deny rules. This only runs when deny rules are actually configured. If this fallback check itself fails, the failure is logged as "semantics-path deny check failed" and Claude Code falls back to asking the user.

Why

This closes a gap where a command that couldn't be fully parsed might have bypassed deny rules entirely; now it gets a best-effort check instead of skipping straight to asking or allowing.
