The last step, and the only one that changes what a plan may DO. It is safe to
make because the previous two exist: an approval that can show the plan
(b52ed77) and a worktree of the plan's own (b2673f8). Making it first would have
been asking a user to approve something the screen could not describe, into a
tree they had not agreed to have changed.
WRITING IS NAMED, NEVER INHERITED. A task that names no tools still gets the
read-only grant and nothing else; a task that wants to change something says
which tool. Otherwise every unqualified task in every plan becomes write-capable
the day the parent grant widens — and the grant DID widen here, which is exactly
when that would have happened.
AN ALLOW-LIST, not "anything not read-only": write_file, edit_file, apply_patch,
bash, exec_command. The negative form would hand a plan task every future tool
the moment it is registered, including ones nobody considered when this was
written. Every deny-list in this repository has leaked.
BOTH GRANT SITES MOVED TOGETHER. validateTaskTools permits a named write tool
and planToolGrant delivers one; relaxing admission alone would have produced a
task that validated and then ran with less than it asked for, silently. That
pair is the sibling rule this feature exists to respect.
PROMPTING IS ARGUMENT-AWARE because it has to be: Safety() sees no arguments, so
it can only describe the tool, and "this plan writes" is a property of the PLAN.
A read-only plan keeps PermissionAllow — friction with nothing to show for it is
the click-through problem. An unreadable plan, or a `saved` one whose tasks are
in a file the check has not opened, errs toward ASKING: a wrong guess that way
costs one prompt, the other way runs write tasks unasked.
THE ADDITIVITY GUARD THIS NEEDED. Implementing ArgsPermissioner makes
permanentlyDenied return false — deliberately, since only a tool with no
per-argument override can be ruled out from its static permission. But
orchestrate is gated on the POSTURE, which is a session state and not an
argument, so it would have counted as held in every run merely for implementing
the interface, and the confirmation policy would have appeared in read-only runs
that never turned the feature on. tools.PermanentDenier lets a tool say what
ArgsPermissioner cannot, and it is consulted first. Five modes still
byte-identical.
Seven mutations, all caught. Two existing tests encoded the OLD rule and were
rewritten to the new one rather than around it — and TestBothGrantEnforcement
PointsAgree now CALLS validateTaskTools instead of restating it, so the next
time the rule moves the test moves with it rather than failing against correct
code.
Verified in the real binary: a write-capable plan outside a git repository is
refused with the reason, and inside one it gets a worktree named for the plan.
