currentAutomated scan100/100version: "1.0.0" name: claude-settings-audit description: 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.
Claude Settings Audit
Analyze this repository and generate recommended Claude Code settings.json permissions for read-only commands.
Phase 1: Detect Tech Stack
Run these commands to detect the repository structure:
ls -lafind . -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 |
Phase 2: Detect Services
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→ checkdependenciesanddevDependenciespyproject.toml→ check[project.dependencies]or[tool.poetry.dependencies]Gemfile→ check gem namesCargo.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:

MCP Server Suggestions
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"
Sentry MCP (if Sentry SDK detected)
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}"}}}
Linear MCP (if Linear usage detected)
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.
Output Format
Present your findings as:
- Summary Table - What was detected
- Recommended settings.json - Complete JSON ready to copy
- MCP Suggestions - If applicable
- Merge Instructions - If existing settings found
Example output structure:
## Detected Tech Stack| Category | Found || --------------- | -------------- || Languages | Python 3.x || Package Manager | poetry || Frameworks | Django, Celery || Services | Sentry || Build Tools | Docker, Make |## Recommended .claude/settings.json\`\`\`json{"permissions": {"allow": [// ... grouped by category with comments],"deny": []}}\`\`\`## Recommended .mcp.json (if applicable)If you use Sentry or Linear, add the MCP config to `.mcp.json`...
Important Rules
What to Include
- Only READ-ONLY commands that cannot modify state
- Only tools that are actually used by the project (detected via lock files)
- Standard system commands (ls, cat, find, etc.)
- The
:*suffix allows any arguments to the base command
What to NEVER Include
- Absolute paths - Never include user-specific paths like
/home/user/scripts/fooor/Users/name/bin/bar - Custom scripts - Never include project scripts that may have side effects (e.g.,
./scripts/deploy.sh) - Alternative package managers - If the project uses pnpm, do NOT include npm/yarn commands
- Commands that modify state - No install, build, run, write, or delete commands
Package Manager Rules
Only include the package manager actually used by the project:
| If Detected | Include | Do NOT Include | |
|---|---|---|---|
pnpm-lock.yaml | pnpm commands | npm, yarn | |
yarn.lock | yarn commands | npm, pnpm | |
package-lock.json | npm commands | yarn, pnpm | |
poetry.lock | poetry commands | pip (unless also has requirements.txt) | |
uv.lock | uv commands | pip, poetry | |
Pipfile.lock | pipenv commands | pip, poetry |
If multiple lock files exist, include only the commands for each detected manager.
