/permissions

Manages allow, ask, and deny rules for tool permissions.

Manages allow, ask, and deny rules for tool permissions. Interactive dialog: rules by scope, add/remove, working directories, recent auto-mode denials. Alias: /allowed-tools.

✅ WHEN TO USE IT?

Add a targeted allow or deny rule for a tool

Open /permissions to add a deny rule for a specific Bash command in the interactive dialog.

Review recently denied auto mode actions

Run /permissions to see which tool calls were recently denied in auto mode, then adjust a rule accordingly.

⛔ WHEN NOT TO?

Bundling many recurring read-only prompts automatically

/permissions edits rules one at a time through an interactive dialog — cumbersome for an allowlist generated automatically from the transcript.

Better: Use /fewer-permission-prompts, which builds a prioritized allowlist from your own transcripts.
