What
Before Claude Code works in a folder, it asks whether you trust it. When a request to trust a folder comes in, Claude Code now refuses it with the reason unsafe_path if the path to the project's root folder contains invisible or non-printing characters. These are characters that do not show on screen. The path itself is not repeated back in the refusal.
Why
A folder name with hidden characters can look like a folder you trust while actually being a different one. Refusing these paths stops you from trusting a folder that is not the one you think it is.
