These CLI sandboxes are trash, use something else. Container, VM, not your computer. Just don't run it on your bare system, please.
From the doc, this suggestion is hardly satisfactory:
The sandbox covers shell commands only. Claude’s file tools, MCP servers, and hooks run outside it.
Also this is in my view the main job of a scaffold like claude code - to restrict what the agent can see and make sure it doesn't use info it should not. It's not something a user can easily or should have to attempt to control themselves.
