Configuration

Create a configuration file in your project root or home directory:

1. Project-specific config (highest priority):

   • <project>/.claude/.danger-zone-exec.local.json

2. Global config (fallback):

   • ~/.claude/.danger-zone-exec.jsonc (recommended for comments)

   • ~/.claude/.danger-zone-exec.json
