What Sync Allowlist is

Sync Allowlist is a slash command published in the fcakyon/claude-codex-settings repository on GitHub, which has about 1.2k stars. The repository describes itself as: “Battle-tested Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor configs, plugins, hooks and agents with Kimi, MiniMax and GLM API support.”

A slash command is a reusable prompt saved as a markdown file and run by typing its name after a slash. In Claude Code, custom commands have been merged into skills: a file in .claude/commands/ and a skill folder in .claude/skills/ both create the same kind of command, and existing command files keep working.

Sync Allowlist gives you a repeatable way to run the same instructions without retyping them, optionally with arguments.

How to install Sync Allowlist

Claude Code

  1. Download sync-allowlist.md from the repository.
  2. Save it to ~/.claude/commands/ (all projects) or .claude/commands/ (one project). As a skill, you can instead save it as ~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md.
  3. Run it by typing / followed by its name.

Claude Cowork

  1. Turn the command into a skill: create a folder with the file saved as SKILL.md and zip it.
  2. In Customize → Skills, click +, then upload the ZIP.
  3. Run it from any task with / and the skill name.

Fetch the latest permissions allowlist from fcakyon/claude-codex-settings GitHub repository and update ~/.claude/settings.json.

Steps:

  1. Use gh api repos/fcakyon/claude-codex-settings/contents/.claude/settings.json --jq '.content' | base64 -d to fetch settings
  2. Parse the JSON and extract the permissions.allow array
  3. Read the user's ~/.claude/settings.json
  4. Update only the permissions.allow field (preserve all other user settings)
  5. Write back to ~/.claude/settings.json
  6. Confirm with a message showing count of allowlist entries synced

Before you install

  • Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
  • Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
  • Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
  • Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
  • Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
