Unclear The further condition that decides whether this text check runs is not stated.
What
Permission rules are settings that tell Claude Code which actions to block (deny rules) or to confirm with you first (ask rules). The Bash tool is what Claude uses to run shell commands.
Before, Claude Code split a command line into its separate commands and checked only those pieces against deny rules. It now also searches the raw command text for deny and ask rules:
A match with a deny rule refuses the command.
A match with an ask rule shows you a permission prompt.
This extra check runs only when you have deny or ask rules, and only when a further internal condition is met.
Why
Rules become harder to get around with unusual quoting or with several commands strung together on one line.
