@gnanam1990 @anandh8x @jatmn this is the split you asked for on #808. All checks green. Small enough to read in one sitting, which was the point: +487/-128 across 29 files, versus the +9077 it was hiding inside. Three independent changes, and they are genuinely independent, so feel free to take a position on one and ignore the others. The parts I would look at hardest, because they are where I would expect to be wrong: The full-auto offer state lives on the model across keypresses. A stale flag would turn a later innocent The network reclassification loosens what counts as egress, which is exactly where a sandbox quietly weakens. @gnanam1990 already checked this on #808 and confirmed
On the rename: the old Go constants and the old on-disk value are both kept as permanent aliases rather than migrated. That is not politeness, it is the fix for how I broke CI on #808: deleting a constant that in-flight work is using makes the merge someone else's problem. What this does not change: full-auto skips permission PROMPTS. The OS sandbox stays on and the write jail still holds. That is why it is not called "unrestricted", and why the warning text names prompts specifically rather than implying something broader. Cherry-picked onto |

Approving at 0311ffb9. This is the split I asked for on #808 — the permission-mode rename and the dev-server network reclassification lifted out of the Windows-principals PR into their own change. Thanks for doing it.
The permission-mode change is carefully built, and I checked the parts that would bite
The wire value changed, and the backward-compat is in the right place. PermissionModeUnsafe = "unsafe" became PermissionModeFullAuto = "full-auto", with PermissionModeUnsafe now a compile-time alias. The alias only keeps Go code compiling — it does nothing for a persisted or transmitted "unsafe" string, which no longer equals the constant. What actually saves that is NormalizePermissionMode mapping both "full-auto" and legacy "unsafe" to PermissionFullAuto, and it's called at engine.go:315 — inside Decide, right before risk classification and the allow/deny. That is the enforcement chokepoint, so however the mode string arrived (CLI, ACP, session replay, config), it's normalized at the one point that governs enforcement. A restored "unsafe" session is enforced as full-auto, correctly.
And the failure direction is safe. Anything NormalizePermissionMode doesn't recognize falls to PermissionModeAuto, and the TUI's advancePermissionMode folds unknown modes to Ask — both stricter. So a missed normalization anywhere is a downgrade, never an escalation. The legacyFullAutoPermissionMode comment makes the "visible downgrade beats silent one" reasoning explicit, which is the right call for a value that lives in user configs.
The arm/confirm gate genuinely prevents accidental full-auto. Full-auto isn't reachable by cycling — shift+tab from Ask arms an offer, and confirmUnsafePermissionMode commits only from a live offer that any other keypress clears. So the path is shift+tab → shift+tab (arm) → ctrl+g, and pressing shift+tab again while armed goes to Auto and drops the offer rather than confirming. I mutation-tested this rather than trust the read: removing the if !offered guard so confirm ignores the offer fails TestConfirmDoesNothingWithoutALiveOffer immediately (confirm with no offer from auto = full-auto, want unchanged). The security property is pinned.
CLI compat holds: --skip-permissions-unsafe and --full-auto are both accepted (exec_parse.go:23), and --auto resolves to PermissionModeFullAuto. Remaining "unsafe" strings in the tree are either code comments or import "unsafe", not user-facing.
The network change is the same one I verified on #808
Network and LocalServer are still set by independent checks (analyzer.go:193, 196), so a command that genuinely fetches keeps Network = true even if it also binds a port — no egress escape. The commands moved out of egress (npm run dev, vite, next dev, http.server, start/serve/dev/preview) only bind, and LocalServer preserves the inbound signal rather than dropping it. Correct and fail-closed, as before.
Verified
go build ./...andGOOS=windows go build ./...clean.internal/tui,internal/sandbox,internal/agentsuites green; the arm gate is mutation-tested as above.- The two
internal/clidoctor failures (TestRunDoctorConnectivityProbesProvider,…FormatsRedactedProviderDiagnostics) are pre-existing — they fail on untouchedmainand this PR touches no doctor/observability/connectivity file. - Feature runs against the real binary: macOS 7/7, Linux 7/7 (file writes, nested paths, sandbox refusal,
--add-dirgrants, control characters, specialist children,exec_command). Windows is green on the PR's own CI (Smoke (windows-latest)pass, 9m).
One scope note, not blocking
The PR is still two unrelated concerns in one — a TUI permission-mode rename and a sandbox command-classifier change; the title carries the "and." It's a large improvement over #808's four-in-one, and both halves are correct, so I'm not going to hold it up. But they'd be independently revertable as two PRs, and the network reclassification in particular is the kind of security-adjacent change that's easier to reason about — and to bisect later — on its own. Your call; flagging it rather than requesting it.
Clean work, and the arm gate is a genuinely thoughtful bit of security-UX.

Pushed fixes for the review. Two of the findings turned out to be bigger than they looked, and one of them was a hole in my own tests. The legacy-value finding was right, and wider than reported. The Go alias only covers callers that name the constant. It does not cover a mode that travels as a string, and three places do:
All three fail safe, which is why nothing broke loudly. Added On the test-panic finding: correct, and worse than described. Renamed the file, fixed the model construction, and added a repository-wide test that fails on any With those tests actually running, the paste/mouse gap was real. Probed it before fixing: armed the offer, sent a
One I am skipping: the Wording fixes for the retry reasons, the exec warning and the shell-escape notice are in. The exec warning now names both flag spellings, since one bool backs both and pointing someone at a flag they did not type is its own small bug. Verification: Sorry about the dismissed approval @gnanam1990, the push was unavoidable. Re-requesting. |

I found issues that need to be addressed before this is ready.
Findings
-
[P1] Preserve a host-reachable path for local preview servers
internal/sandbox/analyzer.go:208
Reclassifyingpython -m http.server, Vite, and package-manager dev commands as non-network suppresses the only permission path that grantsNetworkAllow, butLocalServerhas no execution-policy consumer. The default Linux sandbox consequently adds--unshare-net, so the listener is private to the sandbox namespace and the user's browser cannot reach it; macOS's(deny network*)rejects the bind outright. A normal request to start a preview now runs without a prompt but cannot provide the advertised local server. Keep a scoped approval/runner path for host-visible listening (or consumeLocalServerwith a suitable policy) and cover the real accessibility behavior. -
[P1] Do not trust package-script names as proof of no network access
internal/sandbox/analyzer.go:268
npm run dev(and the pnpm/yarn/bun equivalents) executes arbitrary workspacepredev/script/postdev hooks, yet this change clears its network classification solely from the requested script name. For example, a repository can makepredevupload secrets withcurl; on unelevated Windows the documented network isolation is only the per-command approval gate, so this now runs with real network access and without the former prompt. Keep package-manager script dispatch network-gated unless the resolved script can be safely analyzed; only direct known listener binaries should be eligible for the relaxed classification. -
[P2] Normalize the legacy mode before the TUI consumes it
internal/tui/model.go:865
The compatibility conversion happens inagent.Run, butnewModelcopies a persisted/rawPermissionMode("unsafe")unchanged. Since the deprecated Go constant now has the value"full-auto", this makes the TUI reject!shell escapes, publish a prompting peer identity, and select lower self-correction autonomy even though the ensuing agent run normalizes to full-auto. Normalize at the TUI boundary as well and add the regression case requested by the existing CodeRabbit review. -
[P2] Include the canonical flag in generated shell completions
internal/cli/completions.go:23
Both root andexeccompletion inventories retain only the deprecated--skip-permissions-unsafespelling. The new documented and parsed--full-autoflag therefore cannot be suggested or completed in bash, zsh, fish, PowerShell, or elvish. Add the canonical spelling to both inventories while retaining the alias.
Unsafe was reachable only via --skip-permissions-unsafe at launch, which is bad discoverability: the mode exists, works, and nothing in the TUI tells you so. It is now the third position in the shift+tab cycle, alongside auto and ask. What it is NOT is reachable by repeating a navigation key. Unsafe turns permission prompts off entirely, so shift+tab only ever OFFERS it; committing takes ctrl+g while that offer is live. Press shift+tab again instead and the offer is declined and the cycle continues to auto, so every mode stays reachable with shift+tab alone. The offer lives on the model across keypresses, and that is the part worth being careful about: a stale flag would turn a later innocent ctrl+g into a silent drop into unsafe. So it is cleared unconditionally at the top of the key handler and re-armed only by the shift+tab branch. Forgetting a path therefore cancels the offer rather than leaving it live, which is the harmless direction to be wrong in. Tests drive the real handler for eight different cancelling keys and assert the consequence, not just the flag. ctrl+g is guarded in the case expression rather than the body, so without a live offer the key is not consumed at all and falls through to whatever would normally handle it. That is what stops it being a standalone shortcut into unsafe, and there is a test that presses it repeatedly from every other mode. Leaving unsafe stays one press and is never gated. Getting stricter should not need confirming. Returning to auto from ask now costs two presses, since it passes through the offer. That is inherent to a third position in a cycle rather than a regression, and TestShiftTabCyclesPermissionMode was updated to walk the whole loop rather than assume two positions. An earlier draft of this had the second shift+tab commit unsafe, which silently removed ask -> auto from the cycle entirely. TestPermissionModeCycleNeverReaches UnsafeOnItsOwn walks the full loop and asserts every mode stays reachable, so that cannot come back unnoticed.
`python -m http.server` was denied with "network access requires approval". Serving files out of the workspace on a local port is not reaching out, and treating it as egress made the single most common thing an agent is asked to do while building something stop for an approval that protected nobody. The analyzer already had a localServerPrograms map sitting beside networkPrograms, but commandUsesNetwork returned true for it anyway, so the distinction had been drawn and never acted on. It is acted on now: AnalysisResult carries LocalServer separately, so the information is preserved rather than dropped, and a caller that does care about inbound can still see it. Covers the same set consistently. `next dev` and `npm run dev` are the same intent, so classifying one as binding and the other as fetching would have left users hitting exactly the same wall through the other door. Both are LocalServer now, across npm, pnpm, yarn and bun, as a direct subcommand and behind `run`. What still counts as network is unchanged: install, add, ci, create, publish, login, exec, and every fetching program. `npx http-server` in particular stays network, because npx downloads the package when it is missing; the test caught that when a first pass flipped it, which is why the bind-versus-fetch pairs are now pinned side by side in the table. The unparseable fallback regex is updated to agree. Left alone it would have flagged an obfuscated dev server for network while the same command written plainly did not, which is the kind of inconsistency that is very hard to explain to whoever hits it. Being honest about the edge: some of these touch the network incidentally, and `npm run dev` may install first. The claim is narrow, that BINDING is not EGRESS, not that dev tooling is inert. Anything that actually fetches still matches through its own program or subcommand.
"unsafe" was a judgement rather than a description, and it sat oddly beside auto and ask. full-auto says what the mode does and reads as the obvious third step: ask, auto, full-auto. Not "unrestricted", which was the other candidate and is factually wrong. This mode turns off permission PROMPTS. The OS sandbox stays on, the write jail still holds, and a label implying nothing restrains the agent would be wrong in the dangerous direction. The on-disk value changes to "full-auto" and "unsafe" is accepted permanently as an alias rather than migrated. That value lives in user configs and in scripts, and a session silently falling back to auto because its saved mode no longer parsed would be a confusing downgrade rather than a visible error. --full-auto is the new flag; --skip-permissions-unsafe keeps working and is documented as the deprecated spelling. The exec warning names "the full-auto flag" generically, because either spelling reaches it and the bool does not record which was typed: claiming --full-auto when the caller passed the old one would be a small lie in a warning, which is the wrong place for one. The warning also says "prompt-gated tools run without approval" rather than anything broader, for the same reason the mode is not called unrestricted. What deliberately does NOT change is the colour. The name can be calm; the indicator should not be, so full-auto keeps the alarm style in the status bar and the ctrl+g confirm gate is untouched. The Go "unsafe" package is imported in fifteen files here, so the rename was done by identifier token only and the imports were verified intact afterwards rather than assumed.
The rename broke CI, and it broke it in the merge rather than on the branch: this branch is ten commits behind main, CI builds the merge, and newer main code still references PermissionModeUnsafe and PermissionUnsafe. Deleting a constant that other work is actively using turns an ordinary merge into a compile failure for whoever merges second. Both old names are restored as deprecated aliases of the full-auto constants. Same value, so behaviour is identical, and code on either side of the rename compiles. My local check missed this because `go test ./internal/...` returned "ok (cached)" for internal/agent, and a cached result cannot catch a compile error. Verified this time with -count=1 and against an actual trial merge with origin/main rather than the branch alone.
The rename kept a Go alias for PermissionModeUnsafe, which covers callers that name the constant. It does not cover a mode that moves as a string, and several do, so those paths went on comparing against "unsafe" and stopped matching. Three places were affected: - swarm permissionRank did not rank "full-auto", so it scored 0, the strictest tier. A full-auto parent clamped its members harder than an ask parent. - specialist specialistAutonomy did not match it either, so a full-auto parent's specialists dropped to read-only "low" autonomy. - the agent loop compares Options.PermissionMode directly, so a caller passing the old spelling got prompts instead of full-auto. All three fail safe, which is why nothing broke loudly. Added agent.NormalizePermissionMode and applied it at the single point the loop reads the mode off Options, and taught the swarm and specialist constants both spellings. Their existing tables only listed "unsafe", which is exactly how the rename passed review. Separately, permission_mode_arm_test.go was never compiled. Go read the trailing "_arm" as a GOARCH constraint and excluded the file from every amd64 build, so the five tests covering the shift+tab full-auto offer had never run, locally or in CI. Two panicked once they did. The file is renamed, the model construction fixed, and a repository-wide test now fails on any _test.go whose name ends in a GOOS/GOARCH token without an explicit build tag. With those tests actually running, the offer gate had a real hole: unsafeArmed was cleared only in the key handler, so a paste or a mouse click left the offer live and a later ctrl+g committed full-auto with nobody having accepted it. Paste and deliberate mouse actions now cancel it. Passive motion does not, since terminals stream motion while tracking is on and cancelling on a twitch would make the confirm key unreachable. Also: commandRunsLocalServer matched on program name alone, so "next build" and "vite build" claimed to bind a port while compiling. Nothing reads the flag yet, which is why it could be wrong quietly. Fixed to require a serving subcommand, falling back to bare-invocation behaviour when firstSubcommand lands on an option value rather than a subcommand. Remaining wording fixes name full-auto rather than unsafe in the retry reasons, the exec warning, and the shell-escape notice.
The rebase renamed nextPermissionMode to advancePermissionMode, and main's plan-mode test still called the old name, so internal/tui did not build. Also asserts the second return value. Plan must never carry a full-auto OFFER either, or two presses from Plan would reach the mode that turns permission prompts off entirely, starting from the one mode that promises no mutation.

Findings
-
[P1] Preserve a host-reachable sandbox path for local preview servers
internal/sandbox/analyzer.go:192
The new classification setsLocalServerbut removesNetwork, and no policy or runner code consumesLocalServer. Consequently the existing network approval path is skipped and the command is executed with the defaultNetworkDenyprofile: Linux isolates it in a network namespace and macOS applies(deny network*). A normalpython -m http.serverorviterequest now runs without a prompt but cannot expose a preview to the user's browser. Keep a scoped host-listener approval/profile path (and cover runner-level accessibility), or retain the network approval path. -
[P1] Do not infer no egress from a package-script name
internal/sandbox/analyzer.go:257
npm/pnpm/yarn/bunrun dev(and the other serving names) are now classified as non-network without resolving the package script or its lifecycle hooks. A repository can makepredevordevexecutecurlbefore it starts a listener; on Windows, where the approval gate supplies the effective network protection, this change lets that host egress run without approval. Keep package-manager script dispatch network-gated unless the resolved hook chain can be safely analyzed. -
[P2] Normalize the legacy mode before the TUI applies mode-specific behavior
internal/tui/model.go:870
newModelcopies a rawPermissionMode("unsafe")option unchanged, while the TUI now checks onlyPermissionModeFullAuto. Any TUI entry point supplied with the accepted legacy value therefore rejects!shell escapes, publishes a prompting peer identity, and selects low self-correction, even thoughagent.Runlater normalizes the same run to full-auto. Normalize at the TUI boundary and add a regression case for the raw legacy value. -
[P2] Accept the canonical mode through the explicit exec-mode interface
internal/cli/exec_tools.go:88
The PR establishesfull-autoas the canonical raw/on-disk value, butresolveExecPermissionModeaccepts only the deprecatedunsafespelling (plushigh). Thuszero exec --permission-mode full-auto ...exits with an invalid-mode usage error beforeNormalizePermissionModeis reached, while the warning code already contains an unreachablefull-autobranch. Acceptfull-autowhile retainingunsafeas the alias, and update the usage/test coverage. -
[P2] Add the canonical flag to generated shell completions
internal/cli/completions.go:23
Both completion inventories still list only--skip-permissions-unsafe; neither root norexeccompletion can suggest the new documented--full-autoflag in any generated shell script. Include the canonical flag in both lists while preserving the deprecated alias.

Thanks for the review. I've addressed the key feedback points:
Verified: |
…onical mode All five of jatmn's findings. The two P1s were the same mistake in two places: the LocalServer classification was treated as a REPLACEMENT for Network when nothing consumes it. No policy or runner code reads LocalServer, so classifying a serving command as local-only granted it no host listener; it only removed the network approval it used to get, and the command then ran under the default deny profile. On Linux that is a network namespace and on macOS (deny network*), so `python -m http.server` and `vite` started with no prompt and could not serve a preview to the operator's browser. The package-manager half is the sharper one. `npm run dev` is matched by SCRIPT NAME, and the repository decides what `dev` and `predev` actually do; either can curl before anything binds a port. On Windows the approval gate IS the network protection, so inferring no-egress from a name lets that egress run unprompted. LocalServer is now additive: the classification stays, because a scoped host-listener path will want it, and the approval path stays until that path exists. One line covers both findings, since both flow through the same classification. The PR's own tests asserted the premise being corrected, so they were rewritten rather than flipped: building still counts as no egress, serving now asserts it keeps BOTH the LocalServer classification and the network approval, and the table rows moved with it. The three P2s: resolveExecPermissionMode accepted only the deprecated `unsafe`, so `--permission-mode full-auto` failed usage validation before NormalizePermissionMode was ever reached, while the warning code already had an unreachable full-auto branch. It now accepts the canonical spelling and keeps unsafe as the alias, and the usage text names full-auto. newModel copied the raw mode through while the TUI tests only for PermissionModeFullAuto, so an entry point handed the accepted legacy value rejected ! shell escapes, published a prompting peer identity and chose low self-correction, even though agent.Run normalized the same run to full-auto. One value, two behaviours, decided by which layer looked at it. It is normalized at the TUI boundary now. Both completion inventories listed only --skip-permissions-unsafe, so no generated shell script could suggest the documented --full-auto. Both now carry the canonical flag alongside the deprecated alias.
|
All five fixed at Both P1s were the same mistake in two places, which is worth saying plainly: Your package-manager half is the sharper one and I had no answer to it. The fix keeps the classification, because a scoped host-listener path will want it, and keeps the approval until that path exists. One line, since both findings flow through the same point. I rewrote the PRs own tests rather than flipping their assertions. The three P2s are done as described: Build, vet, gofmt clean and cross-compiled for windows, linux and darwin. One thing still open from your #866 review that I have not done: the P3 about |

[P3] Cover the new canonical completion flags
internal/cli/completions_test.go:156
The completion-tree test still asserts only the deprecated--skip-permissions-unsafespelling for both the root andexeccontexts. Removing either newly added--full-autoentry fromcompletionRootwould therefore leave all completion tests green, even though the advertised flag would no longer be suggested. Assert--full-autoin both contexts alongside the compatibility alias. -
[P3] Report accepted
full_autopermission-mode input accurately
internal/cli/exec.go:631
resolveExecPermissionModeaccepts--permission-mode full_autoand resolves it to full-auto, but this warning-source switch does not recognize that accepted spelling. It falls through to--auto high, so the safety warning claims a flag was passed that the user did not supply. Includefull_autohere (and preserve the supplied spelling), or use a generic--permission-modereason for all accepted aliases.

internal/tui/model.go:2238
tea.BlurMsgupdates cursor, notification, and pet-drag state but leavesunsafeArmedset. The key handler later copies that flag intounsafeWasArmedbefore clearing it, so the sequence Shift+Tab from Ask → terminal loses focus → terminal regains focus → ordinary Ctrl+G reaches the confirmation branch and enters full-auto. This is precisely the stale-confirmation path the new gate is intended to prevent, and it silently disables permission prompts after a context switch.Address the root cause by treating a focus loss as a cancellation boundary for this transient consent state: clear
unsafeArmedin thetea.BlurMsgbranch (before its early return), then add a handler-level regression that proves Blur → Focus → Ctrl+G does not change the permission mode without a fresh offer. Review other intentional, user-driven non-key transitions using the same rule rather than relying only on the keypress-wide reset. -
[P2] Align the local-server feature claim with the implementation
internal/sandbox/analyzer.go:195
Every recognized server setsLocalServer, but the same branch deliberately setsNetwork = true; no production code consumesLocalServer, andTestServingStillRequiresNetworkApprovalasserts this outcome. Consequentlypython -m http.server, Vite, andnpm run devstill take the network-risk/approval path that the title and PR description say was removed. The implementation comments acknowledge why: without a policy/runner consumer, removingNetworkwould put servers in the deny-network sandbox and make them unreachable, while package-manager script names cannot prove the command will not perform egress.Resolve the root cause rather than describing an unavailable behavior as shipped. Either implement an explicit end-to-end listener capability—analysis, policy decision, and platform runners—with a safe scope for host reachability and separately preserve egress controls, or retain the current safety behavior and narrow the title, description, release notes, and user-facing claim to a classification-only foundation. Do not infer no egress from
npm run dev/similar script names. -
[P3] Finish the canonical full-auto wording in CLI help and errors
internal/cli/app.go:390
The new--full-autoroot path still reports that--skip-permissions-unsafelaunches an unsafe TUI and recommends the deprecated flag; exec help also listsunsafeas the permission-mode value and says--auto highenables unsafe tools. A user who invokes the canonical spelling can therefore be sent back to the deprecated spelling or see documentation for a mode name the PR replaces.The root cause is a partial identifier rename: the dispatch case and primary help were updated, but shared validation/error text and the exec-specific help inventory were not treated as part of the public mode contract. Audit every user-facing representation of permission modes and flags—help, validation errors, warnings, completions, examples, and protocol-visible labels—against one canonical vocabulary. Present
full-autoas the mode/flag and describeunsafeor--skip-permissions-unsafeonly as compatibility aliases where acceptance is intentional. -
[P3] Assert the new completion flags
internal/cli/completions_test.go:156
completionRootnow adds--full-autoat both the root andexecscopes, but the completion-tree assertions cover only--skip-permissions-unsafe. Removing either new entry would leave the suite green and stop the documented canonical flag from being suggested. This is also the outstanding completion-regression request previously raised on the PR.Fix the root cause by updating both expected candidate lists to require
--full-autoalongside the legacy alias. More generally, keep the completion inventory and its regression assertions coupled whenever a public flag is added, renamed, or deprecated; testing only a surviving alias makes the canonical contract easy to accidentally remove in a later cleanup.

What makes this worth calling an oversight rather than a missing rule: the rule was already there and applied twice.

Remove the nonexistent early-return claim.
The tea.BlurMsg branch clears m.unsafeArmed correctly, but the supplied branch has no early return after that assignment. Update the comment to describe that BlurMsg bypasses the tea.KeyPressMsg reset instead.
As per coding guidelines, “PR description, help text, and comments must match what shipped.”

I found issues that need to be addressed before this is ready. The first four are runtime defects; the final two are public-contract drift that remains unresolved at the current head.
Findings
-
[P1] Keep unparseable local-server commands on the network-approval path
internal/sandbox/risk.go:42
The normal AST path intentionally setsNetworkfor every recognizedLocalServer, because the current implementation has no scoped listener capability: a server still needs the existing network approval to bind accessibly, and package-manager scripts can perform egress before binding. The changedunparseableNetworkPatternremoves those same server forms, however. Once the POSIX parser rejects a command string that the invoked shell accepts—the analyzer explicitly identifies Windows command strings as a fallback case—AnalyzeCommandreports onlyTooComplex;Classifythen addsunparseable_commandbut nonetworkcategory, andEngine.Evaluateskips theNetworkDenyprompt. A Windowsnpm run devcommand using such syntax can therefore execute arbitrarypredev/devegress without the approval that its parseable equivalent receives.The root cause is that the fail-closed fallback was changed to describe the intended future
LocalServerdistinction rather than the current enforcement contract. Keep the fallback a conservative superset of network-sensitive plain-command classifications until a policy/runner consumer actually provides a separately scoped listener capability. Restore the direct server, package-manager serving, andpython -m http.serverpatterns, then add regression cases that force the AST parser to fail on Windows-shell syntax and assert bothunparseable_commandandnetworkrisk. -
[P1] Cancel the full-auto offer when deferred clipboard input arrives
internal/tui/model.go:1440
tea.PasteMsgclearsunsafeArmed, but the result of the right-click paste command does not. The sequence is: right-click startspasteFromClipboardCmd; while its OS-clipboard read is pending, Shift+Tab reaches the full-auto offer; the delayedclipboardReadMsginserts text throughroutePaste; then an ordinary Ctrl+G enters full-auto because the arm survived the intervening input transition. That silently disables permission prompts after the user has moved on from the confirmation offer.The root cause is that the transient consent state is canceled only in selected source-event branches, while deferred completions that mutate the same input state bypass those branches. Treat deferred clipboard delivery as a cancellation boundary before handling success, failure, or the image probe; audit the analogous asynchronous input producers (for example clipboard-image and dictation deliveries) using the same rule. Add a handler-level regression that schedules the clipboard result, arms the offer before delivery, delivers the result, and proves Ctrl+G no longer changes the mode.

[P2] Register specialist tools from the resolved full-auto mode
internal/cli/exec.go:250
--permission-mode full-autois accepted and resolves toPermissionModeFullAuto, the same effective mode as--auto highand--full-auto. Specialist registration runs before that resolution, though, andshouldRegisterExecSpecialistToolsonly checks raw--autoand the boolean full-auto flags. A directzero exec --permission-mode full-auto --list-toolstherefore omits Task/swarm tooling; the same full-auto run requested through the other entry points includes it. In practice this prevents the explicitly selected full-auto agent from delegating work.The root cause is two independent interpretations of permission selection: registration uses raw CLI fields while execution uses the resolved mode. Resolve the effective permission mode before deciding registry composition, or make the eligibility predicate consume that resolved value, while retaining the existing specialist-child and spec-mode exclusions. Cover every full-auto entry point in a list-tools regression so future aliases cannot create another unequal capability set.

[P3] Attribute the
full_autoalias correctly in the safety warning
internal/cli/exec.go:631
resolveExecPermissionModeintentionally accepts--permission-mode full_auto, but the subsequent warning-source switch recognizes onlyfull-auto,unsafe, andhigh. A command such aszero exec --permission-mode full_auto ...consequently warns that full-auto is active because--auto highwas passed, although that flag was never supplied. This is especially misleading because the warning explains why prompt-gated tools will run without approval.The root cause is that alias acceptance and user-facing attribution are maintained in separate, incomplete tables. Carry a normalized source classification through parsing, or use a neutral
--permission-modeexplanation for every accepted direct-mode alias; do not infer the source from a partial string list later in execution. Add a warning regression forfull_autoalongside the existing--auto high, canonical, and legacy-spelling cases. -
[P2] Align the local-server feature claim with the shipped behavior
internal/sandbox/analyzer.go:195
The title and PR description say local dev servers stop counting as network egress and no longer need network approval. The current implementation deliberately sets bothLocalServerandNetworkfor each recognized server; no policy or runner consumesLocalServer; andTestServingStillRequiresNetworkApprovallocks in that behavior. Python, Vite, and package-manager server commands therefore remain approval-gated, and no host-listener capability has shipped. The current text promises a behavior the implementation intentionally avoids because dropping the network gate would either make listeners unreachable under Linux/macOS isolation or permit unreviewed package-script egress on Windows.The root cause is description drift after the safer follow-up changed the implementation. Either implement the complete capability—classification, explicit policy decision, and platform runner support for host-reachable binding while preserving outbound egress controls—or narrow the title, description, and release-facing text to describe the current classification foundation. Do not leave the PR claiming the removed approval path until that end-to-end capability exists.
-
[P3] Finish the canonical full-auto vocabulary in CLI help and validation
internal/cli/app.go:1491
The newly documented root--full-autopath still emits validation errors naming--skip-permissions-unsafeand recommends the deprecated flag for one-shot runs. The exec help text likewise listsunsafeas the permission-mode value and says--auto highenables unsafe tools, despite acceptingfull-autoas the canonical mode. Users can therefore follow the advertised spelling and then be sent to its deprecated alias or documentation for a mode name the PR replaces.The root cause is a partial rename across multiple independently maintained user-facing strings. Audit help, usage/validation errors, warnings, examples, completions, protocol-visible labels, and documentation against one canonical vocabulary: present
full-autoas the mode and primary flag; mentionunsafeand--skip-permissions-unsafeonly where their compatibility acceptance is intentional. Add focused output assertions for the root and exec help/errors so a future cleanup cannot silently reintroduce deprecated-first guidance.
…red-input arm Five findings from review. The unparseable fallback lost the serving forms on the reasoning that they bind rather than fetch. The AST path sets Network for every recognized LocalServer anyway, deliberately, because nothing consumes LocalServer yet and `npm run dev` is matched by script name where the repository decides what dev and predev do. So dropping them did not align the two paths, it split them: the POSIX parser rejects Windows shell syntax the invoked shell accepts, and if "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" (npm run dev) else (npm start) came back parsed=false network=false while every parseable spelling got network. That is the approval gate disappearing on the platform where it is the only egress control. Restored as a superset, with a regression that asserts both spellings of the same intent classify alike and fails loudly if the parser ever learns the syntax. tea.PasteMsg cancels the full-auto offer, but a right-click paste does not arrive that way: it starts a clipboard read, and shift+tab can reach the offer while that read is in flight. The delayed delivery inserted text and left the arm alive, so an ordinary ctrl+g afterwards turned permission prompts off with the user several actions past the confirmation. Cleared before the branches, on the image delivery too, and on transcribed dictation for the same reason. Specialist registration read the raw CLI fields while execution read the resolved mode, so `--permission-mode full-auto` composed a registry without Task and swarm tooling while `--auto high` and `--full-auto` composed one with it. The mode is resolved before the registry now and the predicate consumes it, so a new alias cannot create another unequal capability set. The full-auto warning matched the typed --permission-mode value against three spellings while the resolver accepts four, so `--permission-mode full_auto` was told --auto high was responsible. It echoes what was typed instead of matching a list that has already drifted once. Help and validation text still led with the deprecated spelling: --permission-mode listed "unsafe" as its value, --auto high was described as enabling "unsafe tools", and the root-flag errors named --skip-permissions-unsafe. All now present full-auto as the mode and the primary flag; the deprecated alias stays where its compatibility is the point.

All six addressed at P1, the unparseable fallbackConfirmed before changing anything, and it reproduces exactly as you described: Every parseable spelling gets the gate and the Windows batch form loses it. You are right about the cause: I aligned the fallback with the analyzer's category NAMES rather than with what it actually flags for network, and the AST path sets The regression asserts both spellings of the same intent classify alike, and fails loudly if the parser ever learns the syntax rather than passing vacuously. P1, the deferred clipboard armSame shape as the blur gap from last round, and I should have audited for it then rather than fixing the one branch you named. Cleared before the branches, so a failed read and the empty-clipboard image probe are covered too, and on P2, specialist registrationThe mode is resolved before the registry is composed now, and the predicate consumes the resolved value, so any spelling that reaches full-auto gets the same tools. Safe to hoist because the resolver only parses the options it was handed, so Worth telling you: my first version of that test asserted on P3, the warning attributionRather than extend the list to four spellings, it echoes what was typed. Keeping acceptance and attribution in two tables is what drifted once already. Extracted to P2, the descriptionYou are right and this one is on me rather than the code. An earlier draft did remove the approval, the follow-up put it back, and the description kept describing the version that no longer ships. Title and section rewritten to describe the classification foundation and to say plainly that the gate stays, with both reasons it stays, and that a host-listener capability is the follow-up this is for.

Four commits lifted out of #808, where they did not belong. @gnanam1990 blocked that PR on scope and he was right: #808 rewrites Windows write-jail semantics, and burying a permission-mode rename and a network reclassification inside it makes the security-relevant core harder to review on its own.
Cherry-picked onto current main and verified there, not just moved.
The permission mode gains a third position
unsafemode existed and worked, but was reachable only through--skip-permissions-unsafeat launch, so nothing in the TUI told you it was there. It is now the third position in the shift+tab cycle.What it is NOT is reachable by repeating a navigation key. shift+tab only ever OFFERS it; committing takes
ctrl+gwhile that offer is live. Press shift+tab again instead and the offer is declined and the cycle continues, so every mode stays reachable with shift+tab alone.The offer lives on the model across keypresses, which is the part worth care: a stale flag would turn a later innocent
ctrl+ginto a silent drop into full-auto. So it is cleared unconditionally at the top of the key handler and re-armed only by the shift+tab branch. Forgetting a path cancels the offer rather than leaving it live, which is the harmless direction to be wrong in. The tests drive the real handler with eight different cancelling keys and assert the consequence, not just the flag.An earlier draft had the second shift+tab commit full-auto, which silently removed
ask -> autofrom the cycle. There is now a test that walks the whole loop and asserts every mode stays reachable, so that cannot come back unnoticed.unsafebecomesfull-auto"unsafe" was a judgement rather than a description and sat oddly beside auto and ask.
full-autosays what the mode does and reads as the obvious third step.Deliberately NOT "unrestricted", which was the other candidate and is factually wrong: this mode turns off permission PROMPTS. The OS sandbox stays on and the write jail still holds, so a label implying nothing restrains the agent would be wrong in the dangerous direction.
The on-disk value changes and
"unsafe"is accepted permanently as an alias rather than migrated, since that value lives in user configs and scripts.--full-autois the new flag;--skip-permissions-unsafekeeps working as the deprecated spelling. The old Go constants are kept as deprecated aliases too: deleting a constant that in-flight work is using makes the merge someone else's problem, which is exactly how I broke CI on #808 before adding them back.The colour does not change. The name can be calm; the indicator should not be.
Local dev servers are classified separately, and still need network approval
Narrowed from what this section used to claim. An earlier draft of this branch did remove the network approval for serving commands, the follow-up put it back, and the description kept describing the version that no longer ships.
What ships is the classification foundation.
AnalysisResultcarriesLocalServerseparately, so the distinction between binding a port and reaching out is preserved rather than collapsed. The analyzer already had alocalServerProgramsmap besidenetworkProgramsandcommandUsesNetworkreturned true for it anyway, so the distinction had been drawn and never acted on.What does NOT ship is dropping the approval.
Networkis still set for every recognizedLocalServer, on purpose, andTestServingStillRequiresNetworkApprovalpins it. Two reasons:LocalServeryet. No policy or runner reads it, so classifying a serving command as local-only would not grant it a scoped host listener, it would only remove the approval it used to get. The command then runs under the default deny profile, a network namespace on Linux and deny-network on macOS, sopython -m http.serverandvitewould start without a prompt and be unable to serve anything to the operator.npm run devis matched by SCRIPT NAME, and the repository decides whatdevandpredevactually do; either can fetch before a port is bound. On Windows the approval gate IS the egress protection, so inferring "no egress" from a name there lets that egress run unprompted.So
python -m http.server, Vite, and the package-manager serving commands remain approval-gated exactly as before. Coverage is consistent across npm, pnpm, yarn and bun, direct and behindrun, becausenext devandnpm run devare the same intent and classifying one differently would be arbitrary.The unparseable fallback is kept a superset of this for the same reason: the POSIX parser rejects Windows shell syntax the invoked shell accepts, and a serving command written in a spelling it cannot read must not lose the gate its parseable form receives.
A host-listener capability is the follow-up this foundation is for: classification, an explicit policy decision, and platform runner support for reachable binding while outbound egress stays controlled. Until that exists end to end, the gate stays.
