The new environment variable bypasses the last remaining safeguard against destructive file operations in fully automated coding sessions Anthropic has added an environment variable to Claude Code that removes the final safety prompt blocking destructive file operations like deleting an entire filesystem root. The variable is named, with zero subtlety, CLAUDE_CODE_EVEN_MORE_DANGEROUSLY_SKIP_PERMISSIONS . Set to 1, it lets the AI coding agent run rm and rmdir commands against critical paths, including / and the home directory, without pausing to ask a human if that’s really what they want.
