Approve work from another device
SHORT ANSWER
When the agent asks for permission, open the waiting session, read the exact command or file action, then choose Allow or Deny. If you do not answer, the request times out to a safe deny.
Review the request
- 1
Open the waiting session
A waiting approval is visible in the session and in the fleet view when multiple computers are paired.
- 2
Read the action
Check the tool name, command, path, and any warning styling. Do not approve an action you do not understand.
- 3
Allow or deny
Allow continues the agent turn. Deny sends the refusal back to the agent so it can adjust.
Choose the right execution mode
- Ask each step keeps command and file actions behind approval.
- Auto-edit allows file edits but still asks before commands.
- Plan asks the agent to plan before acting.
- Full auto grants broad autonomy and should only be used when you accept the risk.
