What
Claude Code checks whether a file path, after following any shortcuts (symbolic links), leads outside the area it is allowed to touch. That check now has an option, eisdirIsFolder, that makes it treat an "is a directory" error as meaning the path is a folder. The option is passed along at every step of the check.
Why
This could change how some paths are judged in permission checks when the option is used.
