## Claude Code settings
> Configure Claude Code with global and project-level settings, and environment variables.
Claude Code offers a variety of settings to configure its behavior to meet your needs. You can configure Claude Code by running the `/config` command when using the interactive REPL.
### Settings files
The `settings.json` file is our official mechanism for configuring Claude
Code through hierarchical settings:
* **User settings** are defined in `~/.claude/settings.json` and apply to all
projects.
* **Project settings** are saved in your project directory:
* `.claude/settings.json` for settings that are checked into source control and shared with your team
* `.claude/settings.local.json` for settings that are not checked in, useful for personal preferences and experimentation. Claude Code will configure git to ignore `.claude/settings.local.json` when it is created.
#### Available settings
`settings.json` supports a number of options:
| Key | Description | Example |
| :-------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :------------------------------ |
| `apiKeyHelper` | Custom script, to be executed in `/bin/sh`, to generate an auth value. This value will generally be sent as `X-Api-Key`, `Authorization: Bearer`, and `Proxy-Authorization: Bearer` headers for model requests | `/bin/generate_temp_api_key.sh` |
| `cleanupPeriodDays` | How long to locally retain chat transcripts (default: 30 days) | `20` |
| `env` | Environment variables that will be applied to every session | `{"FOO": "bar"}` |
| `includeCoAuthoredBy` | Whether to include the `co-authored-by Claude` byline in git commits and pull requests (default: `true`) | `false` |
| `permissions` | See table below for structure of permissions. | |
#### Permission settings
| Keys | Description | Example |
| :----------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :------------------------------- |
| `allow` | Array of [permission rules](/en/docs/claude-code/iam#configuring-permissions) to allow tool use | `[ "Bash(git diff:*)" ]` |
| `deny` | Array of [permission rules](/en/docs/claude-code/iam#configuring-permissions) to deny tool use | `[ "WebFetch", "Bash(curl:*)" ]` |
| `additionalDirectories` | Additional [working directories](iam#working-directories) that Claude has access to | `[ "../docs/" ]` |
| `defaultMode` | Default [permission mode](iam#permission-modes) when opening Claude Code | `"acceptEdits"` |
| `disableBypassPermissionsMode` | Set to `"disable"` to prevent `bypassPermissions` mode from being activated. See [managed policy settings](iam#enterprise-managed-policy-settings) | `"disable"` |
#### Settings precedence
Settings are applied in order of precedence:
1. Enterprise policies (see [IAM documentation](/en/docs/claude-code/iam#enterprise-managed-policy-settings))
2. Command line arguments
3. Local project settings
4. Shared project settings
5. User settings
### Environment variables
Claude Code supports the following environment variables to control its behavior:
All environment variables can also be configured in [`settings.json`](#available-settings). This is useful as a way to automatically set environment variables for each session, or to roll out a set of environment variables for your whole team or organization.
| Variable | Purpose |

### Configuration options
We are in the process of migrating global configuration to `settings.json`.
`claude config` will be deprecated in place of [settings.json](#settings-files)
To manage your configurations, use the following commands:
* List settings: `claude config list`
* See a setting: `claude config get `
* Change a setting: `claude config set `
* Push to a setting (for lists): `claude config add `
* Remove from a setting (for lists): `claude config remove `
By default `config` changes your project configuration. To manage your global configuration, use the `--global` (or `-g`) flag.
#### Global configuration
To set a global configuration, use `claude config set -g `:
| Key | Description | Example |
| :---------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `autoUpdates` | Whether to enable automatic updates (default: `true`). When enabled, Claude Code automatically downloads and installs updates in the background. Updates are applied when you restart Claude Code. | `false` |
| `preferredNotifChannel` | Where you want to receive notifications (default: `iterm2`) | `iterm2`, `iterm2_with_bell`, `terminal_bell`, or `notifications_disabled` |
| `theme` | Color theme | `dark`, `light`, `light-daltonized`, or `dark-daltonized` |
| `verbose` | Whether to show full bash and command outputs (default: `false`) | `true` |
### Tools available to Claude
Claude Code has access to a set of powerful tools that help it understand and modify your codebase:
| Tool | Description | Permission Required |
| :--------------- | :--------------------------------------------------- | :------------------ |
| **Agent** | Runs a sub-agent to handle complex, multi-step tasks | No |
| **Bash** | Executes shell commands in your environment | Yes |
| **Edit** | Makes targeted edits to specific files | Yes |
| **Glob** | Finds files based on pattern matching | No |
| **Grep** | Searches for patterns in file contents | No |
| **LS** | Lists files and directories | No |
| **MultiEdit** | Performs multiple edits on a single file atomically | Yes |
| **NotebookEdit** | Modifies Jupyter notebook cells | Yes |
| **NotebookRead** | Reads and displays Jupyter notebook contents | No |
| **Read** | Reads the contents of files | No |
| **TodoRead** | Reads the current session's task list | No |
| **TodoWrite** | Creates and manages structured task lists | No |
| **WebFetch** | Fetches content from a specified URL | Yes |

| **Write** | Creates or overwrites files | Yes |
Permission rules can be configured using `/allowed-tools` or in [permission settings](/en/docs/claude-code/settings#available-settings).
#### Extending tools with hooks
You can run custom commands before or after any tool executes using
[Claude Code hooks](/en/docs/claude-code/hooks).
For example, you could automatically run a Python formatter after Claude
modifies Python files, or prevent modifications to production configuration
files by blocking Write operations to certain paths
