# Scan Agent Permission Settings

Scan Agent Permission Settings: what it does, its label on each agent, what it misses, and examples.

Catalog policy agent-permissions-scan, version 0.2.2, labelled blocks on Claude Code.

> Ask the user before running any command on this page: each one changes how their agent or repository behaves.

## What it does

Blocks: parses agent permission configs (.claude/settings*, .codex, .gemini, .vscode, .cursor/cli.json, opencode, .aider, .continue) and flags added bare or wildcard allows (Bash, curl/rm/sudo/git push, WebFetch, Write/Edit globs, mcp__*), removed deny entries, bypass/auto modes, codex never+danger, yolo, autoAccept, yes-always, regex-all VS Code approve, Claude project env API-endpoint overrides and enableAllProjectMcpServers. Misses: other MCP configs, user-level settings, scripts, Read.

## On each agent

| Agent | Label | What it does there |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Claude Code | Blocks | Blocks on an agent's file writes and at turn end |
| Cursor | Blocks | Blocks on an agent's file writes and at turn end |
| Codex | Blocks | Blocks on an agent's file writes and at turn end. If the hook errors, the action goes through (not witnessed; the vendor's row is only partly live-run) |
| GitHub Copilot | Blocks | Blocks at turn end only. It does not check a file write when it happens. If the hook errors, the action goes through (not witnessed; the vendor's row is only partly live-run) |
| Devin | Blocks | Blocks at turn end only. It does not check a file write when it happens. If the hook errors, the action goes through (vendor docs only, not witnessed) |
| Grok | Not graded | Not graded yet for Grok |
| goose | Not graded | Not graded yet for goose |
| Antigravity | Not graded | Not graded yet for Antigravity |
| OpenHands | Not graded | Not graded yet for OpenHands |

## What it misses

Other MCP configs, user-level settings, scripts, Read.

## Examples from its eval suite

Refused: A settings file allows every tool with the star alone on its own line, the pretty-printed form the line-based sibling cannot see.

Allowed: A scoped Bash prefix allow.
