It now blocks more writes:\n\n- the dev-mods folder under Claude Code's configuration folder, which commands can read but not change\n\n- more files next to the remote settings file\n\nIf the dev-mods path is not a plain folder, Claude Code warns and blocks it as it is.\n\n**Why**\n\nCommands running in the sandbox cannot change plugin mods or the files around the remote settings.\n\n- Area: Sandbox\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: yes"}
