What
Allow rules are permission rules that let a command run without asking you. When Claude Code checks your rules, it now warns about an allow rule that puts a * in a variable's value, such as VAR=* cmd. The warning explains that a * also matches spaces.
Why
Because the * can match spaces, such a rule can allow far more than one value for the variable. The warning points out a rule that may let through commands you did not mean to allow.
