Module 9: Security and Safe Use

Chapter 30: The Sysadmin's Safety Checklist for Claude Code

In this chapter, you'll build a practical safety checklist covering what Claude Code should never touch without explicit instruction, how to enforce it with permissions, and the audit habits that keep you safe.

In the previous chapter, you connected Claude Code to n8n for event-driven automation and completed Module 8. Now, in Module 9, the focus shifts to security and the safe use of Claude Code in production environments.

In this chapter, you will learn a practical safety checklist for using Claude Code responsibly. You will see which parts of a system Claude Code should never access or modify without explicit human approval, how to enforce those boundaries through permissions and configuration, and the review habits that help keep production servers safe while working with AI.
