Preflight Checklist

  • This report does NOT contain sensitive information (API keys, passwords, etc.)

Type of Behavior Issue

Claude modified files I didn't ask it to modify

What You Asked Claude to Do

Every time I ask Claude Code to read actual code, it confidently answers questions based on fragmented code reading.

Every time i ask why, it confesses. Now my screen if full of confessions.

What Claude Actually Did

doesnt read code. ignores user instructions completely. adds hard coding everwhere

Expected Behavior

Read code or allow code reading tools. I built my own tool and you are blockng that as well.

Files Affected

Permission Mode

Accept Edits was ON (auto-accepting changes)

Can You Reproduce This?

Yes, every time with the same prompt

Steps to Reproduce

Ask claude code to read actual code.

extent analysis

TL;DR

Disable the "Accept Edits" mode to prevent Claude from modifying files without user confirmation.

Guidance

  • Verify that the "Accept Edits" mode is the cause of the issue by disabling it and checking if Claude still modifies files without confirmation.
  • Check the Anthropic API documentation to see if there are any settings or flags that can be used to prevent Claude from modifying files.
  • Consider using a different Claude model, such as a more recent or updated version, to see if the issue persists.
  • Review the conversation history with Claude to ensure that the prompts are clear and concise, and that Claude is not misinterpreting the instructions.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to the "Accept Edits" mode, but it's unclear why Claude is ignoring user instructions and adding hard coding everywhere. Further investigation is needed to determine the root cause of the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Disable the "Accept Edits" mode to prevent unintended file modifications, and review the conversation history to ensure clear and concise prompts.
