That check can now be given an extra list of folders, and a path inside any of them also counts as inside. On systems other than macOS, the check now skips special handling for the macOS `\/private` folder alias.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis could change which file paths Claude Code treats as inside your working area, and so which ones it acts on without asking for permission.\n\n- Area: Permissions\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
