Troubleshooting suggests `grep INFLUX_TOKEN .env.local`, but `.claude/settings.json` denies `Read(./.env.*)`—an agent using Claude Code won’t be permitted to run read operations against `.env.local`. Either relax the deny rule (for non-secret `.env.development` at least) or adjust troubleshooting steps to avoid reading `.env.*` files.

Description

Troubleshooting suggests `grep INFLUX_TOKEN .env.local`, but `.claude/settings.json` denies `Read(./.env.*)`—an agent using Claude Code won’t be permitted to run read operations against `.env.local`. Either relax the deny rule (for non-secret `.env.development` at least) or adjust troubleshooting steps to avoid reading `.env.*` files.
```suggestion
echo "INFLUX_TOKEN env var: ${INFLUX_TOKEN:-'(not set)'}"

Research direction

Start with the troubleshooting instructions and .claude/settings.json, then compare the suggested grep command with the denied Read(./.env.*) rule. Confirm the chosen approach works for an agent using Claude Code, and consider the issue done when the troubleshooting guidance and permission behavior no longer conflict.
