direnv: silence a blocked .envrc

β€’ 73 words β€’ 1 min

Sometimes we simply do not want to activate direnv in a given project.

Deny it for the current directory:

shell 
% direnv deny .

To enable it later:

shell 
% direnv allow .

This is necessary to make it stop nagging you each time you cd into a project (directory) with .envrc:

shell 
% cdtmp
/var/folders/yr/6sw3yylx6gjcy5jr38d6j6000000gn/T/thiago.perrotta-2026-09-02-k5lfb0

thiago.perrotta /var/folders/yr/6sw3yylx6gjcy5jr38d6j6000000gn/T/thiago.perrotta-2026-09-02-k5lfb0
% touch .envrc
direnv: error /private/var/folders/yr/6sw3yylx6gjcy5jr38d6j6000000gn/T/thiago.perrotta-2026-09-02-k5lfb0/.envrc is blocked. Run `direnv allow` to approve its content
