Unclear It is not known whether this prompt was removed or only moved, so it is unclear whether Claude Code still asks before such actions.
What
Claude Code's list of optional features no longer includes this privacy setting: "asks before a shell or web tool runs with the signed-in account's email address in a call that may leave the machine". A shell tool runs commands on your computer, and a web tool fetches pages from the internet. In the previous build this setting was on by default and could only be changed from trusted settings.
Why
If the setting is truly gone, Claude Code may no longer stop to ask before sending your account email address out in a command or web request.
