What's Wrong?
Claud Code, v2.0.29, is constantly asking permission to do read operations like read, glob, grep etc. Per the docs, I have set up .clade/settins.json with:
{
"permissions": {
"allow": [
"Read()",
"Glob()",
"Grep()",
"LS()",
"Bash(cat:*)",
"Bash(grep:*)",
"Bash(find:*)",
"Bash(ls:*)"
]
}
}
I stopped and restarted vs code and claude, several times. This seriously slows down my work flow.
What Should Happen?
It would be great if claude would stop asking permission to do non-volatile read-only operations.
Error Messages/Logs
Steps to Reproduce
Just run claude code and ask it to something where it needs to read a file.

In my original message I mistyped ".clade/settins.json with:" I correctly have it as '.claude/settings.json'

I am experiencing the same issue for the past few days. Selecting "Yes, allow all edits during this session" does nothing, and still prompts me to accept every granular edit within the session. Happens in both the CLI and the VSCode extension. I am on OSX.
