What
Claude Code checks whether it is allowed to read a file before reading it. When that check blocks a read, Claude Code gives a reason. That reason used to be the same every time. It now differs depending on the blockReadsOutsideWorkingDirectories setting.
Why
The reason for a blocked read now reflects your blockReadsOutsideWorkingDirectories setting, which blocks reads outside your working folders, instead of always being the same message.
