[BUG] Permission prompt triggered for files with : in path despite Edit being in allow list

What's Wrong?

When editing files that contain a colon (:) in the file path, Claude Code prompts for permission even though Edit is in the allow list without any scope restrictions.

This affects Vue.js file-based routing projects that use :param convention for dynamic routes (e.g., src/pages/lesson/:id.vue).

What Should Happen?

Edit in the allow list without a scope should allow editing all files, regardless of characters in the path.

Error Messages/Logs

Opens "Do you want to make this edit to", no error message as such

Steps to Reproduce

1. Add "Edit" to permissions.allow in .claude/settings.local.json
2. Try to edit a file with : in the path, e.g. src/pages/lesson/:id.vue
3. Claude Code prompts for permission despite Edit being allowed

Settings tested:

• "Edit" in permissions.allow — still prompts
• "defaultMode": "bypassPermissions" globally — still prompts
• Editing files without : in the path works fine with the same settings

Workaround

Use [id].vue instead of :id.vue for files.
