The four kinds and the words each produces, at the registry level and through
the four policy gates: a timeout names its deadline, a decline carries the
comment, and neither is reported as the other. The existing denial assertions
now expect the specific clause.
Registry cases (none / once / round / grant / YOLO / denial / error / handler
record / closest answer wins), the wire cap keeping the line, the three policy
paths that record their answer, and a pretty detail that ignores the header.
The existing confirm tests now assert the line they gain.
What the scan resolves (destination, options, jammed `-p2222`, mosh's `--`, a
hop behind `sudo`), what it leaves alone (a client with no command), and both
gates: `check_command_allowed` now refuses `ssh prod rm -rf /` and prompts for
the `sudo` behind the hop, while harmless remote commands stay allowed; the
review prints a remote `bash -c` code block and always asks under
`BatchMode=yes`.
The gate has four entry points and each now has a test: `view_image` and
`fetch_local` refuse with the message naming the config key, the registry drops
a plugin tool's picture and says why, and the workspace helpers keep `None` (no
host verdict) permissive. On the CLI side the verdict is asserted to follow the
selected model, and to reach the tools once an instance is bound.
`[trash] enabled` now reaches `delete_path` through the bound instance's
workspace policy, the same channel `[agent] path_denylist` already travels: set
when the session state is built and re-read by `reload_config_from_disk`, so a
config reload in the middle of a chat changes the next delete too.
The policy flag is what `delete_path` consults, so a host that never sets it
gets the safe default (deletes go to the trash) instead of a silent no-op.
The wrapper option table listed flags as if they consumed the next token, so
the program behind them was skipped: `exec -c git -c init.defaultBranch=main
init` resolved to `init` and the policy denied it as a denylisted basename,
while `exec -c rm -rf /`, `command -p rm -rf /` and `command -v rm` hid `rm`
from the denylist completely and `exec -c python -c …` lost the interpreter
review. Drop the entries that take no value — `exec -c`/`-l`, the whole
`command` entry, `pkexec --disable-internal-agent`, `su -p`, and `xargs -e`
(its argument is optional, and the jammed form needs no entry) — so the
resolved program is the one that really runs.
Denylist hits ask the user (default deny, timeout) instead of only hard
rejecting when a policy hook is installed. Independent of YOLO soft-confirm;
session grants skip re-prompt for the same basename. CLI installs the hook
via install_cli_limit_hooks.
