Claude Settings Audit

Analyze this repository and generate recommended Claude Code settings.json permissions for read-only commands.

When to Use

• You are setting up or auditing Claude Code settings.json permissions for a repository.
• You need to infer a safe read-only allow list from the repo's tech stack, tooling, and monorepo structure.
• You want to review or replace an existing Claude permissions baseline with something evidence-based.

Phase 1: Detect Tech Stack

Run these commands to detect the repository structure:

ls -la
find . -maxdepth 2 \( -name "*.toml" -o -name "*.json" -o -name "*.lock" -o -name "*.yaml" -o -name "*.yml" -o -name "Makefile" -o -name "Dockerfile" -o -name "*.tf" \) 2>/dev/null | head -50

Check for these indicator files:

Phase 2: Detect Services

Check for service integrations:

Read dependency files to identify frameworks:

• package.json → check dependencies and devDependencies
• pyproject.toml → check [project.dependencies] or [tool.poetry.dependencies]
• Gemfile → check gem names
• Cargo.toml → check [dependencies]

Phase 3: Check Existing Settings

cat .claude/settings.json 2>/dev/null || echo "No existing settings"

Phase 4: Generate Recommendations

Build the allow list by combining:
