Example Claude Code settings files, primarily intended for organization-wide deployments. Use these are starting points — adjust them to fit your needs.
These may be applied at any level of the [settings hierarchy](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings#settings-files), though certain properties only take effect if specified in enterprise settings (e.g. `strictKnownMarketplaces`, `allowManagedHooksOnly`, `allowManagedPermissionRulesOnly`).
## Configuration Examples
> [!WARNING]
> These examples are community-maintained snippets which may be unsupported or incorrect. You are responsible for the correctness of your own settings configuration.
| Block user and project-defined permission `allow` / `ask` / `deny` | | ✅ | ✅ |
| Block user and project-defined hooks | | ✅ | |
| Deny web fetch and search tools | | ✅ | |
| Bash tool requires approval | | ✅ | |
| Bash tool must run inside of sandbox | | | ✅ |
## Tips
- Consider merging snippets of the above examples to reach your desired configuration
- Settings files must be valid JSON
- Before deploying configuration files to your organization, test them locally by applying to `managed-settings.json`, `settings.json` or `settings.local.json`
- The `sandbox` property only applies to the `Bash` tool; it does not apply to other tools (like Read, Write, WebSearch, WebFetch, MCPs), hooks, or internal commands
