Conversation
ApprovabilityVerdict: Not approved Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This change adds a new Claude MCP elicitation approval workflow, including schema validation, runtime request lifecycle handling, and user-facing authorization artifacts. Its production behavior is substantial and an unresolved abort path can leave stale actionable approval cards, so the change needs human review. Not approved because:

Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to Claude MCP app-access requests now show an approval prompt instead of being declined silently. Unsupported forms are still declined automatically. The evidence reviewed shows no blocking issues for this one-time approval flow. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Explicit approval and session checks limit exposure, but a one-time approval can still return a persistent value supplied through a hidden form default.

Thanks for keeping this close to the triage. Explicit Cancel, Decline and Approve options so no session grant is ever offered, cleaning up the pending entry on every exit, and failing closed for URL mode are all the right calls. The main issue is the exact-match list near the end of The comment above that check is right that the shared match treats "disallow" as consent, and that's a real bug on the Codex side today: On size: the fake Codex payload with The "stopping the session while the card is open cancels it" test passes its own Last, since the fix depends on the real request passing the strict top-level check (only |

Rebased this branch onto current I recognize that the triage response on #14878 identified the bug but explicitly did not grant maintainer scope approval under CONTRIBUTING.md. Could a maintainer confirm whether this narrow, one-time Claude MCP approval path is the desired direction for review, or advise a different scope? I am not treating automated review as approval. Thanks. |

Validate the actual toMcpElicitationResponse output instead of keyword matching. Only safe one-time choices and explicit false values are forwarded; other free-form defaults are omitted when optional and fail the form closed when required, so unconstrained fields such as "Remember: true" or "Always allow: yes" can no longer carry a persistent grant, and benign notes mentioning "session" are no longer declined.

Note Written by Hi! We are cleaning up open PRs, and this one names a harness (Claude Code) but not which model version created it. If this change is really important, we recommend rebuilding the PR with a newer model and noting the model in the PR description. |

Problem
Claude MCP app-access requests are immediately declined without a user prompt because the adapter does not register the Agent SDK's
onElicitationcallback. Related: #14878. The issue's triage comment confirms the defect and suggests this narrow direction, while explicitly noting that maintainer scope confirmation is still pending.Fix

Other optional defaults are omitted; required free-form defaults fail closed before a card opens. Unsupported constraints, URL mode, and unfillable required fields also fail closed.Verification
