Auto Approval 以 dsh-auto-approval 发布，当前版本为 0.3.0。Plugin Hub 会校验它的 manifest，并保存精确安装来源，便于复现安装结果。
A fourth permission preset for DeepSeek Harness: pick Automode in the composer's permission dropdown and the session runs on full access with an LLM classifier as the only gate before every tool call. No approval prompts — the classifier answers for you.
The permission model stays 3 + 1: the three official sandbox levels, plus one auto tier. Selecting any other preset turns the plugin off; there is no second switch.
0.2.0 is a rewrite of the 0.1.x line. The on/off switch became a permission preset: install, pick Automode, done. Upgrading? See Upgrading from 0.1.x.
Automode: a multi-step task runs unattended, then a denied call shows up in the decision table
The recording: pick Automode, send one prompt (create a directory, write a file, read it back, then run echo danger_test). The agent runs the file steps unattended — the classifier allows them (L1-deep / whitelist) — and the final command is blocked by a hard rule (L0-deny). The chip's dialog shows both verdicts and the cumulative counts.
model wants a tool call
│
├─ preset ≠ automode ──────────────► untouched (official behavior)
│
└─ preset = automode
│
├─ L0 rules (hard deny) ───► deny (rm -rf /, curl | sh, self-kill …)
├─ trusted tools / bash prefixes ──► allow
└─ L1 classifier ──────────► allow | deny (fail-closed: timeout/parse/no-model → deny)
llm (default) runs a two-stage prompt on a chat model (fast single-token filter → deep CoT check when flagged); jev sends one HTTP request to TypeSafe's System One and gets back typed probabilities — the verdict is a threshold comparison, no text parsing. Tool output is never shown to the classifier on either backend, so injected content cannot talk it into an allow.The preset writes the same knobs as danger-full-access (full access + approval never), so nothing else asks the user either. What distinguishes the two entries is the plugin's gate — and the official preset service keeps the last selected name, so the dropdown shows which one you picked.
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-auto-approval
Just published a new version? pnpm 11 refuses versions younger than 24 hours (
minimumReleaseAge, a supply-chain default), soadd dsh-auto-approvalresolves the previous release for the first day. Install the exact version (dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-auto-approval@0.2.0) or add the package to the profile'spnpm-workspace.yaml:minimumReleaseAgeExclude: - dsh-auto-approval
Then pick Automode in the permission dropdown next to the composer (or /permission automode). The first time you do so in a browser, a one-time notice explains the trade-off (the official "Enable Full access?" gate is keyed to danger-full-access and never fires for a custom preset). The Auto chip then appears beside the preset selector with cumulative allow/deny counts and a click-through decision table.
Source install: clone the repo, pnpm install && pnpm run build, then dsh plugin --profile web add link:/<path>.
0.2.0 keeps the package name, the auto-approval: settings section and every config key, so an upgrade needs no config changes. What changed:
| 0.1.x | 0.2.0 | |
|---|---|---|
| Switch | plugin setting enabled + a UI switch | the Automode permission preset (no second switch) |
| Packages | dsh-auto-approval + dsh-client-ui-auto-approval | dsh-auto-approval (host + browser halves in one package) |
| Sandbox | whatever preset was active; DSH's own escalation prompt still reached the user | full access + approval never; nothing prompts |
| L1 unconfigured | allowed everything (a rubber stamp) | denies everything outside the allowlists |
# 1. drop the old companion package (its browser half now ships in the main package)
dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-client-ui-auto-approval
# 2. upgrade
pnpm --dir "$DSH_HOME/profiles/web" up dsh-auto-approval
# 3. restart dsh, then pick Automode in the permission dropdown
If your settings.yaml has no classifier configured (classifierFastProvider / classifierFastModel), automode now fails closed — configure one, or only trusted tools and allowlisted commands will run.
$DSH_HOME/settings.yaml, hot-reloaded:
auto-approval:
denyPatterns:
- 'rm\s+(-[a-z]*[fr][a-z]*\s+)*/\s*$'
- 'curl\s+[^|]*\x7c\s*(ba)?sh'
autoApproveTools: [read, write, edit, glob, grep, ls]
bashCommandPrefixes: [ls, pwd, git status, git diff, pnpm test]
classifierFastProvider: deepseek-official
classifierFastModel: deepseek-v4-flash
classifierDeepProvider: deepseek-official
classifierDeepModel: deepseek-v4-pro
classifierGuidance: 'Prefer allowing read-only and test commands.'
Every key is optional. denyPatterns / autoApproveTools / bashCommandPrefixes replace the defaults wholesale (YAML arrays do not merge), so restate the values you want to keep.
Without a classifier there is no L1, and automode fails closed: only trusted tools and allowlisted commands run, everything else is denied. That is deliberate — a session with no classifier is not a safety net, and silently allowing everything would make the gate a rubber stamp.
classifierBackend: jev replaces the two-stage LLM prompt with a single typed-probability call to Jev. Jev does not generate text: one request returns calibrated probabilities for five questions asked over the same frame (latest user message + tool name + arguments), and the verdict is a threshold comparison in code — the whole text-parsing chain (VERDICT lines, truncation finishes, token budgets) disappears. One round trip, ~300 ms.
export TYPESAFE_API_KEY=<your key> # recommended; see the warning below
auto-approval:
classifierBackend: jev
# optional:
jevModel: jev-latest # default; the response carries the actual version, logged for traceability
jevAllowThreshold: 0.9 # default; must be in the open interval (0, 1)
classifierTimeoutMs is reused as the per-request timeout — no new key. Do not combine classifierBackend: jev with classifierFast*/classifierDeep* routes: ambiguous configuration throws at load (fail-loud). The API key resolves from jevApiKey first, then TYPESAFE_API_KEY. Warning: jevApiKey in settings.yaml is stored in plaintext — prefer the environment variable. The key never appears in logs, audit events, or deny reasons.
One gate, four witnesses. Of the five questions asked in the single request, only clearly_safe decides: noul ≥ jevAllowThreshold → allow, otherwise deny. destructive, exfiltration, beyond_scope and impact are recorded, not enforced — their useful thresholds have to be measured on your own real sessions (classifier thresholds do not transfer across datasets), so read a few dozen real decisions from the log's signal distributions before promoting any of them to a gate. Every Jev decision writes a file-log line with all five signal values, usage.input_tokens, and the actual model version that answered.
Rate limits and the no-retry trade-off. jev-1.13 allows 1200 requests/min and 250k tokens/s; output tokens are free, input is billed ($0.042/MTok at the time of writing). The gate never retries: a 429/529 (or any other failure) denies the call instead of adding tail latency to your tool pipeline. If you hit limits, the failure mode is "automode denies and tells you", never "automode hangs".
| Surface | What this plugin does |
|---|---|
| Reads | Tool-call arguments under review; the session log (only to find the latest real user message as classifier intent) |
| Writes | $DSH_HOME/logs/auto-approval.log — a local JSON-lines audit file, best-effort; a write failure only logs a warning |
| Network | Only when L1 is configured. llm backend: the user message + tool call go to that LLM provider. jev backend (off by default): the latest real user message (truncated to 4000 chars), the tool name, and the arguments JSON (truncated to 8000 chars) go to https://api.typesafe.ai/v1/systemone. Tool output is never sent on either backend — that is the injection defense, not a coincidence |
| Executes | Nothing. No subprocess, no shell, no file mutation outside the audit log |
| Intercepts | tools/pre-execute (prepended) plus a monotonic ctx.tools.guard() deny guard — both gated on the session's preset |
| Failure bounds | L1 timeout / parse failure / missing model → deny; invalid config throws at load (fail-loud); a missing settings service falls back to the composition entry config |
Tracks the latest official DeepSeek Harness release. Verified against @deepseek-ai/dsh 0.1.2-rc.1 and 0.1.5-rc.2 (install → boot → real tool-call decision in a disposable DSH_HOME). Older releases are not supported.
The bundle patch restates the official preset table, so a base release that adds a preset needs this file updated too.
