Analyze a repository to generate recommended Claude Code settings.json permissions. Use when setting up a new project, auditing existing settings, or determining which read-only bash commands to allow. Detects tech stack, build tools, and monorepo structure.
Analyze this repository and generate recommended Claude Code settings.json permissions for read-only commands.
settings.json permissions for a repository.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:
| Category | Files to Check |
|---|
| Python | pyproject.toml, setup.py, requirements.txt, Pipfile, poetry.lock, uv.lock |
| Node.js | package.json, package-lock.json, yarn.lock, pnpm-lock.yaml |
| Go | go.mod, go.sum |
| Rust | Cargo.toml, Cargo.lock |
| Ruby | Gemfile, Gemfile.lock |
| Java | pom.xml, build.gradle, build.gradle.kts |
| Build | Makefile, Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml |
| Infra | *.tf files, kubernetes/, helm/ |
| Monorepo | lerna.json, nx.json, turbo.json, pnpm-workspace.yaml |
Check for service integrations:
| Service | Detection |
|---|---|
| Sentry | sentry-sdk in deps, @sentry/* packages, .sentryclirc, sentry.properties |
| Linear | Linear config files, .linear/ directory |
Read dependency files to identify frameworks:
package.json → check dependencies and devDependenciespyproject.toml → check [project.dependencies] or [tool.poetry.dependencies]Gemfile → check gem namesCargo.toml → check [dependencies]cat .claude/settings.json 2>/dev/null || echo "No existing settings"
Build the allow list by combining:
[

"Bash(pwd:*)",
"Bash(find:*)",

MCP servers are configured in .mcp.json (not settings.json). Check for existing config:
cat .mcp.json 2>/dev/null || echo "No existing .mcp.json"
Add to .mcp.json (replace {org-slug} and {project-slug} with your Sentry organization and project slugs):
{
"mcpServers": {
"sentry": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.sentry.dev/mcp/{org-slug}/{project-slug}"
}
}
}
Add to .mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"linear": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@linear/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"LINEAR_API_KEY": "${LINEAR_API_KEY}"
}
}
}
}
Note: Never suggest GitHub MCP. Always use gh CLI commands for GitHub.
