Check the current Claude Code permissions for .env files without attempting to read them. **Important**: Project-level settings completely override user-level settings (they don't merge). 1. Check all three settings locations: - **User settings**: `~/.claude/settings.json` - **Project settings**: `./.claude/settings.json` (if exists) - **Local project settings**: `./.claude/settings.local.json` (if exists) 2. For each file that exists, parse the `permissions` section (both `allow` and `deny` arrays) 3. Look for patterns related to .env files in each: - `**/.env` - `**/.env.*` - `**/.env.example` - `**/.env.local` - Any other .env-related patterns 4. Report findings clearly: - Show what's in each settings file (user, project, local) - **Highlight which settings are actually active** based on precedence: - If `./.claude/settings.local.json` exists → it takes precedence - Else if `./.claude/settings.json` exists → it takes precedence - Else `~/.claude/settings.json` is active - Show the effective permissions that will actually be enforced - Explain if project settings are overriding user settings (especially important if project has empty/missing deny arrays) 5. Provide a summary like: - "✓ Can read/write .env.example files" - "✗ Cannot read/write .env files" - "⚠️ Warning: Project settings override user settings and may allow .env access" 6. **If project settings are missing .env protections**, suggest: - "💡 TIP: Run `/secure-env.apply` to add secure .env deny rules to this project's settings" - Explain that this will merge the deny rules without overwriting existing project settings Do NOT attempt to read, write, or access any actual .env files - only check the permissions configuration files.
