Development Mode

Unlocks the usual dev tools while keeping guardrails against dangerous actions.

Installation
npx claude-code-templates@latest --setting permissions/development-mode --yes

This setting opens a broad set of day-to-day permissions: npm, yarn, node, git, docker, python, and editing code files.

At the same time, it blocks dangerous commands like rm -rf and sudo, plus reads of secrets.

The goal is to maximize productivity in trusted environments without giving up a baseline of safety.

When to use

  • On trusted development machines where you want fewer interruptions.
  • When your workflow involves frequent builds, tests, and commits.
  • To avoid manually approving every routine command.

How to use

Apply the setting; tune the allow and deny lists to fit the tools in your stack.
