What's Wrong?
Tool restrictions from claude.ai are ignored by the CLI / VS Code extension. Executed:
- Disabled tools
- Tools that require human approval
There was a reason the user disabled it. I believe we should block the execution or escalate to a human. Dynamic workflows included.
What Should Happen?
Disabled tools: Block the execution or don't even present that tool
Tools that require human approval: Block the execution or HITL when possible
