Claude Code v2.1.81 ·

strictPluginOnlyCustomization Policy [In Development]

Entry
JSON All of v2.1.81
EntryKind: in v2.1.81,
In DevelopmentSection of the release
What

New managed settings policy that blocks non-plugin customization sources for specified surfaces (skills, hooks, etc.).

Status

Available in managed settings but not broadly documented.

Details
  • Can be set to true (locks all surfaces) or an array of specific surface names (e.g., ["skills", "hooks"])
  • false is an explicit no-lock override
  • Plugin, policySettings, built-in, builtin, and bundled sources are always allowed
  • Invalid values are logged as warnings
Evidence

Plugin-only customization policy (search for "strictPluginOnlyCustomization")

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