Proposed solution

It will be great if the copilot cli to support the auto approve, like vs code.

"chat.tools.terminal.autoApprove": {
"bash": true, // Auto-approve bash commands
"sh": true, // Auto-approve sh commands
"python3": true, // Auto-approve python commands
"git": true, // Auto-approve git commands
"cd": true, // Auto-approve cd commands
"ls": true, // Auto-approve ls commands
"mkdir": true, // Auto-approve mkdir commands
"grep": true,
"find": true,
"rm": false, // Always require approval for rm
"git push": false // Always require approval for git push
}

Hey!

A few things here, grep should be approved by default because it is read-only. Beyond that, for other commands you can do --allow-tool 'shell(<cmd>)' when you invoke the CLI, but I'm guessing you want this in a config file?

+1 for config file 🙏

Absolutely, if we could just have a list of tools by default would be very helpful, I see myself having to manually trust read commands many and many times that I would be a huge time saver if I could just just trust globally:

• dotnet build
• dotnet restore
• dotnet format
• dotnet run
• git log

etc..
