> Run rm -rf /tmp/test

⏺ Bash(rm -rf /tmp/test)
  ⎿  PreToolUse:Bash hook returned blocking error
  ⎿  Error: rm -rf is blocked for safety

⏺ The rm -rf command was blocked by a safety hook in your configuration (~/.claude/hooks/block-dangerous-commands.sh).

  If you want to remove /tmp/test, you have a few options:

  1. Run the command directly in your terminal (outside of Claude Code)
  2. Modify your hooks configuration to allow this specific command
  3. Use a safer alternative like rm -r /tmp/test (without force flag) which may prompt for confirmation

  Would you like me to try one of the alternatives, or would you prefer to run this directly in your terminal?
