Unclear It is not clear where the mcpDeniedTools list comes from or whether anything uses it yet.

What

MCP tools are extra tools that Claude Code gets from outside programs called MCP servers. Claude Code now has code that reads a list named mcpDeniedTools and adds it to its settings when the list is valid. A valid list has to meet these rules:

  • Each entry is text made only of allowed characters.
  • Each entry has to match the name of an MCP tool.
  • The list cannot be longer than a set maximum.
Why

This may be a way, possibly set by an organization or from a remote source, to block particular MCP tools by name.
