Configuration Parsing Failure: Persistent Edit Confirmation Prompts

[chka]

Bug Description Critical Bug Report: Claude Code Settings.json Non-Compliance

Issue: Claude Code repeatedly ignores explicit configuration settings and continues requesting edit confirmations despite comprehensive attempts to disable them.

Severity: Critical - Blocks efficient development workflow

Description: The context.md file documents extensive efforts to configure Claude Code to operate without edit confirmations, including:

1. Multiple Configuration Files Updated: - /home/chka/.claude/settings.json - /home/user/Projects/stripe/settings.json - /home/user/Projects/stripe/.claude/settings.local.json
2. 20+ Configuration Flags Set (lines 12-17): - edit_confirmation: false - auto_approve_edits: true - require_confirmation: false - confirm_edits: false - auto_confirm: true - skip_confirmation: true - allow_destructive_operations: true - auto_approve_file_changes: true - prompt_before_edit: false - require_edit_permission: false - interactive_mode: false - disable_confirmation: true - silent_mode: true
3. CLAUDE.md Instructions Added: "CRITICAL: You MUST NEVER ask for confirmation before editing files. All file operations should be performed automatically without any user confirmation prompts."

Expected Behavior: Claude Code should honor these settings and perform file operations without confirmation prompts.

Actual Behavior: Claude Code continues to request edit confirmations, ignoring all configuration attempts.

Impact:

• Significantly slows development workflow
• Forces repetitive manual confirmations
• Undermines automation capabilities
• Creates frustration and inefficiency

Reproduction: Despite all configuration attempts documented in context.md, Claude Code still asks for confirmation before file edits.

Request: Please fix Claude Code to properly respect settings.json configurations, particularly the edit confirmation settings that users explicitly disable.
