permissions

permissions is a skill for Claude Code from oliver-kriska/claude-elixir-phoenix. It costs 36 tokens per session (1,324 once invoked), scanned D, original, MIT.

A safety-focused tool that reviews recently approved Bash commands and suggests matching permission entries for Elixir's Mix commands in settings.json.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps inspect recent sessions, classify command risk, find missing permissions, and review a settings diff before adding safe entries.
Why use it?
It reduces repeated permission prompts while keeping risky commands blocked and requiring confirmation before settings change.

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 D, and why

permissions scanned grade D with 4 findings 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 5d 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

1. **NEVER auto-allow RED** — `rm`, `sudo`, `kill`, `curl|sh`, `mix ecto.reset`, `git push --force`, `chmod 777`

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Merge approved additions into `~/.claude/settings.json` under `permissions.allow`.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 134 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Permission Analyzer

Scan recent session transcripts to find Bash commands you keep approving, cross-reference with current settings.json, and recommend adding the missing ones.

Primary goal: Discover MISSING permissions from actual usage. Secondary goal: Clean up redundant/garbage entries.

Usage

/phx:permissions [--days=14] [--dry-run] — Scans session JSONL files, finds uncovered Bash commands, classifies risk, and recommends settings.json changes. Use --dry-run to preview without writing.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS--days=N (default: 14), --dry-run (preview only).

Iron Laws

  1. NEVER auto-allow REDrm, sudo, kill, curl|sh, mix ecto.reset, git push --force, chmod 777
  2. Evidence-based only — Only recommend commands actually approved in sessions
  3. Show before writing — Present full diff, get explicit confirmation
  4. Preserve existing — Merge, never overwrite

Risk Classification

Level Examples Action
GREEN ls, cat, grep, tail, which, mkdir, cd, mix test/compile/credo/format, git status/log/diff Auto-recommend
YELLOW git add/commit/push, mix ecto.migrate, mix deps.get, npm install, docker build/run, source, mise exec Recommend with note
RED rm -rf, sudo, kill, `curl sh,mix ecto.reset/drop,git push --force,git reset --hard`

Workflow

Step 1: Extract Bash Commands from Session JSONL Files

Run the extraction script from ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/extraction-script.md. This scans all project JSONL files from the last N days, checks each Bash command against current settings.json patterns, and reports uncovered commands with counts.

IMPORTANT: Run this FIRST. Do NOT skip to settings cleanup.

Step 2: Classify and Recommend

For each uncovered command from Step 1 output:

  1. Classify as GREEN / YELLOW / RED per table above
  2. Generate permission pattern: normalize to Bash(base_command *) format (use SPACE before *, NOT colon — :* is deprecated)
    • mkdir -p (94x) → Bash(mkdir *)
    • mise exec (39x) → Bash(mise *)
    • tail -5 (20x) → Bash(tail *)
  3. Check for redundancy: skip if a broader existing pattern covers it
  4. Also scan for garbage in current settings: Bash(done), Bash(fi), Bash(__NEW_LINE_*), partial heredocs, entries covered by broader patterns
  5. Fix deprecated :* patterns — replace any Bash(name:*) with Bash(name *) (space before *). The :* suffix is deprecated and may not match reliably

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

permissions is a skill published in the GitHub repository oliver-kriska/claude-elixir-phoenix (541 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 1,324 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 4 findings (asks for root, reads agent configuration directories, recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
