fix: allow Bash tool in claude-code-action for dependabot workflow#43
Merged
Conversation
Without allowed_tools, Claude Code runs with no permitted tools in non-interactive CI mode and all 14 tool calls are denied (permission_denials_count: 14). Claude needs Bash to run gh and grep commands as specified in the prompt. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Bare 'Bash' allows arbitrary shell execution — a prompt injection via PR description could run any command with GH_AUTO_MERGE_TOKEN perms. Restrict to only the commands Claude actually needs: - Bash(gh:*) for gh pr view/edit/review/merge - Bash(grep:*) for codebase package usage scan Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
