Where is the Claude Code global configuration file located?

The global configuration is stored at ~/.claude/settings.json, while project-specific overrides can be placed in a .claude/settings.json file in the project root.

Can I restrict Claude's access to specific files or commands?

Yes, you can use the explicit permission system in your settings file to allow or deny specific Bash commands, read/write paths, or specific tools from MCP servers.

How do I add a new MCP server to Claude Code?

You can integrate MCP servers by editing the .mcp.json file in your plugin or project root, specifying the command, arguments, and required environment variables.

What is the difference between a standalone and a marketplace plugin?

Standalone plugins represent a single repository with a plugin.json in the .claude-plugin/ directory. Marketplaces contain multiple plugins, each with its own plugin.json at its respective root directory.
