DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Sandbox allowRead Setting

What

New allowRead setting lets administrators re-allow specific read paths within broad denyRead regions, and a new allowManagedReadPathsOnly flag restricts reads to only policy-approved paths.

Details
  • allowRead: array of paths that take precedence over denyRead, enabling fine-grained "deny broad, allow narrow" patterns
  • allowManagedReadPathsOnly: boolean in policySettings.sandbox.filesystem — when true, only managed allowRead paths are permitted
  • Glob expansion supported for allowRead patterns
  • Logging for re-allowed paths within denied regions
Evidence

Settings schema (search for "Paths to re-allow reading within denied regions") and policy check (search for "allowManagedReadPathsOnly")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
