Question: I’m using claude code a bunch now but have 2 specific areas I find annoying: When claude code goes to build, I find it might prompt me 20+ times to fire off web searches to various different domains for research. Is there a more sane way to handle this rather than approving it 20 times? For example, do you give it a pre-approved whitelist of research domains? Limit the number of domains it searches? Limit the number of web search agents it spins up? In some projects more research is good, but in others I feel like 4-5 articles is more than enough and it puts me in a never ending loop of like 20-30 domains to approve. Claude code also likes to search github for libraries or frameworks. Also other domains really. However, I worry about it pulling down some barely used repo from a sole developer that I can’t trust. Do you put any additional language or configs in that can inspect a repo for quality such as year created, # of contributors, # of commits, or anything else? Or are there other places where I can get a trusted list of repos? One example is with MCP servers, I don’t really want some rando’s MCP server if the original company has their own. submitted by /u/zerostyle
