install-permissions

install-permissions is a command for coding agents from UiPath/skills. It costs 29 tokens per session (2,511 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A command that installs a selected allowlist of safe UiPath command-line operations in Claude Code. An allowlist lets specified commands run without asking for approval each time.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to install either the safety-focused permission setup or an allow-only setup for UiPath commands, including the `uip` tool.
Why use it?
It reduces repeated approval prompts during UiPath work while keeping potentially cloud-changing commands subject to confirmation when using the recommended option.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

install-permissions scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 143 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Install UiPath permission allowlist

Help the user add a curated allowlist of safe uip subcommands to their Claude Code settings so the agent is not prompted on every command.

Why this command exists. Claude Code plugins cannot ship permission rules declaratively — per the plugins docs, only the agent and subagentStatusLine keys are honored in a plugin-shipped settings.json; any permissions block is silently ignored. Without a user-configured allowlist, every Bash(...) invocation prompts for approval, and a realistic Flow or RPA build runs 25+ distinct uip subcommands.

Steps

  1. Ask which variant to install using AskUserQuestion:

    • Full — with safety rails (default, recommended) — writes both allow and ask. Cloud-side-effect commands (debug / upload / publish / pack / login) still prompt, even under defaultMode: bypassPermissions or --dangerously-skip-permissions. Prevents accidental prod publishes in YOLO mode.
    • Allow-only — no safety rails — writes only the allow block. Power users who explicitly want zero prompts under --dangerously-skip-permissions pick this. Accept that a stray uip solution publish will execute without confirmation.
  2. Ask where to install the allowlist using a second AskUserQuestion:

    • Project — .claude/settings.local.json (default) — applies only to the current project; conventionally not committed to git.
    • Project — .claude/settings.json — applies only to the current project; usually committed.
    • Global — ~/.claude/settings.json — applies to every project.
    • Just print it — output the JSON only, do not write anything.
    • Something else — accept a custom path string.
  3. Read the target file. If it exists, parse the JSON strictly. If it already contains permissions.allow or permissions.ask, preserve existing entries and add only the missing ones (deduplicate by exact string). If there is no permissions block, add one. If the file parses as invalid JSON, abort with a clear message and ask the user to fix it manually — do not attempt to rewrite.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
