Overview
The Policy Builder is a visual tool for creating and deploying Claude Code managed settings — the organization-controlled configuration that governs what Claude Code can do on your developers' machines. Instead of hand-writing a managed-settings.json file, you pick a baseline, layer on the controls you need, fine-tune the result, and export a ready-to-deploy policy.
Choose a template
The first stage is the Build your Claude Code policy dialog. It opens automatically on your first visit, and you can reopen it anytime with the Choose template / Change template button in the editor toolbar.
Edit your policy
After you apply a template, you land in the editor. This is where you review and fine-tune the policy before exporting it. The toolbar at the top has two tabs — Form and JSON — plus Change template and Export buttons.
Export & deploy
When your policy is ready, click Export in the editor toolbar. The export dialog offers three ways to deploy, each tailored to a different environment. Pick one and a step-by-step install guide appears — MDM and Install for me download the policy file for you, while Claude managed settings lets you copy the policy or download a versioned copy.
