# Claude Settings Audit

Analyze this repository and generate recommended Claude Code `settings.json` permissions for read-only commands.

## Phase 1: Detect Tech Stack

Run these commands to detect the repository structure:

```bash
ls -la
find . -maxdepth 2 \( -name "*.toml" -o -name "*.json" -o -name "*.lock" -o -name "*.yaml" -o -name "*.yml" -o -name "Makefile" -o -name "Dockerfile" -o -name "*.tf" \) 2>/dev/null | head -50
```

Check for these indicator files:

| Category     | Files to Check                                                                        |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Python**   | `pyproject.toml`, `setup.py`, `requirements.txt`, `Pipfile`, `poetry.lock`, `uv.lock` |
| **Node.js**  | `package.json`, `package-lock.json`, `yarn.lock`, `pnpm-lock.yaml`                    |
| **Go**       | `go.mod`, `go.sum`                                                                    |
| **Rust**     | `Cargo.toml`, `Cargo.lock`                                                            |
| **Ruby**     | `Gemfile`, `Gemfile.lock`                                                             |
| **Java**     | `pom.xml`, `build.gradle`, `build.gradle.kts`                                         |
| **Build**    | `Makefile`, `Dockerfile`, `docker-compose.yml`                                        |
| **Infra**    | `*.tf` files, `kubernetes/`, `helm/`                                                  |
| **Monorepo** | `lerna.json`, `nx.json`, `turbo.json`, `pnpm-workspace.yaml`                          |

## Phase 2: Detect Services

Check for service integrations:

| Service    | Detection                                                                       |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Sentry** | `sentry-sdk` in deps, `@sentry/*` packages, `.sentryclirc`, `sentry.properties` |
| **Linear** | Linear config files, `.linear/` directory                                       |

Read dependency files to identify frameworks:

- `package.json` → check `dependencies` and `devDependencies`
- `pyproject.toml` → check `[project.dependencies]` or `[tool.poetry.dependencies]`
- `Gemfile` → check gem names
- `Cargo.toml` → check `[dependencies]`

## Phase 3: Check Existing Settings

```bash
cat .claude/settings.json 2>/dev/null || echo "No existing settings"
```

## Phase 4: Generate Recommendations

Build the allow list by combining:

```

#### Framework-Specific

| If Detected    | Add Domains                                     |

| **Django**     | `docs.djangoproject.com`                        |

### MCP Server Suggestions

MCP servers are configured in `.mcp.json` (not `settings.json`). Check for existing config:

```bash
cat .mcp.json 2>/dev/null || echo "No existing .mcp.json"
```

#### Sentry MCP (if Sentry SDK detected)

Add to `.mcp.json` (replace `{org-slug}` and `{project-slug}` with your Sentry organization and project slugs):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sentry": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.sentry.dev/mcp/{org-slug}/{project-slug}"
    }
  }
}
```

#### Linear MCP (if Linear usage detected)

Add to `.mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linear": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@linear/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "LINEAR_API_KEY": "${LINEAR_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

**Note**: Never suggest GitHub MCP. Always use `gh` CLI commands for GitHub.

## Output Format

Present your findings as:

1. **Summary Table** - What was detected
2. **Recommended settings.json** - Complete JSON ready to copy
3. **MCP Suggestions** - If applicable
4. **Merge Instructions** - If existing settings found

Example output structure:

```markdown
## Detected Tech Stack

| Category        | Found          |

| Package Manager | poetry         |
| Frameworks      | Django, Celery |
| Services        | Sentry         |
| Build Tools     | Docker, Make   |

## Recommended .claude/settings.json

\`\`\`json
{
"permissions": {
"allow": [
// ... grouped by category with comments
],
"deny": []
}
}
\`\`\`

## Recommended .mcp.json (if applicable)

If you use Sentry or Linear, add the MCP config to `.mcp.json`...
```

## Important Rules

### What to Include

- Only READ-ONLY commands that cannot modify state
- Only tools that are actually used by the project (detected via lock files)
- Standard system commands (ls, cat, find, etc.)
- The `:*` suffix allows any arguments to the base command

### What to NEVER Include

- **Absolute paths** - Never include user-specific paths like `/home/user/scripts/foo` or `/Users/name/bin/bar`
- **Custom scripts** - Never include project scripts that may have side effects (e.g., `./scripts/deploy.sh`)
- **Alternative package managers** - If the project uses pnpm, do NOT include npm/yarn commands
- **Commands that modify state** - No install, build, run, write, or delete commands

### Package Manager Rules

Only include the package manager actually used by the project:

| If Detected         | Include         | Do NOT Include                         |
| ------------------- | --------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| `pnpm-lock.yaml`    | pnpm commands   | npm, yarn                              |
| `yarn.lock`         | yarn commands   | npm, pnpm                              |
| `package-lock.json` | npm commands    | yarn, pnpm                             |
| `poetry.lock`       | poetry commands | pip (unless also has requirements.txt) |
| `uv.lock`           | uv commands     | pip, poetry                            |
| `Pipfile.lock`      | pipenv commands | pip, poetry                            |

If multiple lock files exist, include only the commands for each detected manager.
