Configuration Parsing Failure: Persistent Edit Confirmation Prompts

Bug Description
Critical Bug Report: Claude Code Settings.json Non-Compliance

Issue: Claude Code repeatedly ignores explicit configuration settings and
continues requesting edit confirmations despite comprehensive attempts
to disable them.

Severity: Critical - Blocks efficient development workflow

Description:
The context.md file documents extensive efforts to configure Claude Code
to operate without edit confirmations, including:

1. Multiple Configuration Files Updated:

• /home/chka/.claude/settings.json
• /home/user/Projects/stripe/settings.json
• /home/user/Projects/stripe/.claude/settings.local.json

1. 20+ Configuration Flags Set (lines 12-17):

• edit_confirmation: false
• auto_approve_edits: true
• require_confirmation: false
• confirm_edits: false
• auto_confirm: true
• skip_confirmation: true
• allow_destructive_operations: true
• auto_approve_file_changes: true
• prompt_before_edit: false
• require_edit_permission: false
• interactive_mode: false
• disable_confirmation: true
• silent_mode: true

1. CLAUDE.md Instructions Added: "CRITICAL: You MUST NEVER ask for

confirmation before editing files. All file operations should be
performed automatically without any user confirmation prompts."

Expected Behavior: Claude Code should honor these settings and perform
file operations without confirmation prompts.

Actual Behavior: Claude Code continues to request edit confirmations,
ignoring all configuration attempts.

Impact:

• Significantly slows development workflow
• Forces repetitive manual confirmations
• Undermines automation capabilities
• Creates frustration and inefficiency

Reproduction: Despite all configuration attempts documented in
context.md, Claude Code still asks for confirmation before file edits.

Request: Please fix Claude Code to properly respect settings.json
configurations, particularly the edit confirmation settings that users
explicitly disable.
