What

When Claude Code asks your permission before running a shell command, it shows a short reason why the command needs your approval. The reasons for two kinds of command now read:

  • 'it runs a project tool, such as make or npm', which replaces a longer line listing make, npm, pytest and cargo
  • 'it runs a file by a relative path', for a command that runs a file named by its location relative to the current folder
Why

You will see this simpler wording in the permission prompt for these commands.
