Permission Tuner

Reduce permission prompts by fixing their causes, not by piling up rules.

Trigger

Use when:

• Permission prompts interrupt flow repeatedly
• Auto mode keeps blocking routine work or falls back to prompting everything
• Starting a new project and want to configure permissions

How Prompts Happen

• Rules resolve first: deny > ask > allow. A matching ask rule prompts even in auto mode, and a PreToolUse hook returning allow cannot override it.
• In auto mode, anything no rule resolves goes to a classifier. After 3 blocks in a row or 20 in a session, auto mode pauses and prompts for everything until you approve one.
• Auto mode drops broad allow rules: Bash(*), wildcarded interpreters like Bash(node *), package-manager run commands, Agent, and Monitor.
• Hooks that exit 2 on harmless commands count as denials and push the session toward that fallback.
