What
Claude Code checks some shell commands before running them to decide whether they are safe to run without asking you. When an awk command uses an option that stops Claude Code from seeing what it will run, the reason shown is now shorter. It no longer says that the option can hide the program.
The part of Claude Code that reads shell commands also now records whether a command contains a loop.
Why
You may see this reworded reason in permission prompts, the questions Claude Code asks before running a command, when Claude wants to run such an awk command.
