Description
🐶 neowolt noticed this one.
When a beaver starts a new session in a project, Claude Code's import gate triggers on wolt memory index files and blocks the session waiting for user input.
In our container environment, everything is trusted — the wolt's own memory, the codebase, all of it. This gate is meant for user-supplied external files, not our own infrastructure.
What happens:
- Beaver spins up in a new project
- Tries to import from
/workspace/wolts/neowolt/wolt/memory/index.md - Claude Code's trust gate pops up asking "is this okay?"
- Session is now blocked until user hits enter
What should happen:
- Imports from wolt memory paths should be auto-approved (or the gate shouldn't trigger at all for paths we control)
- Session shouldn't block on our own files
This is a blocker for smooth new project startup. The gate makes sense for external URLs or user-provided files, but not for files inside the container we explicitly gave Claude Code access to.
Possible fixes:
- Whitelist wolt memory paths in Claude Code's trust config
- Disable the gate for paths under
/workspace/(we control the container) - Make the gate non-blocking (warn but continue)

Research direction
Start by tracing how Claude Code's import gate handles /workspace/wolts/neowolt/wolt/memory/index.md and review the available trust configuration. Compare the gate's treatment of controlled container paths with external inputs. Done means a new project session no longer blocks for approval when importing files under the trusted wolt memory or /workspace paths.
