How to allow Claude to run non-mutating Serena tools instantly without asking for permission?

[myarcana]

Every single time claude needs to use one of the most innocuous, information-gathering tools, I have to manually intervene

Is there a way I can set everything up so that claude won't ever ask for permission for the serena stuff that is guaranteed to not make any changes to the code? Like looking up symbols

You can add this commands to /Users/<your_user>/.claude/settings.json like this:

{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__serena__list_dir",
      "mcp__serena__find_file", 
      "mcp__serena__search_for_pattern",
      "mcp__serena__get_symbols_overview",
      "mcp__serena__find_symbol",
      "mcp__serena__find_referencing_symbols",
      "mcp__serena__replace_symbol_body",
      "mcp__serena__insert_after_symbol",
      "mcp__serena__insert_before_symbol",
    ]
  }
}

Yes, except the replace and insert ones I guess

you can also configure serena in .mcp.json like:

"serena": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "--from",
        "git+https://github.com/oraios/serena",
        "serena",
        "start-mcp-server",
        "--context",
        "ide-assistant"
      ],
      "policy": {
        "allow": true
      }
    }
