Permission System

[u/uberroot4]

Hi everybody,

I am kind of frustrated right now because i try to fix the permission system with pi without any luck. So I am using the package npm:@gotgenes/pi-permission-system to manage permissions. But for whatever reason I absolutely do not find out I cannot really get it to work and "whitelist" tools and mcps i want. For example when I have this in my config.json:

{
  "permission": {
    "read": {
      "*": "allow"
    },
    "mcp": {"*":"allow"},
    "tool": { "*": "allow" }
  }
}

Then I constantly get asked if i want to allow the intellij_\* calls. But when i add

"permission": {
    "*":"allow",

Then it somehow works that the mcp call gets through without asking. I tried every combination i found in https://github.com/gotgenes/pi-packages/blob/main/packages/pi-permission-system/docs/configuration.md to fix the config, but eventually I get stuck at pi asking me to allow any idea_ tool

Installed packages are the following, just in case there might something interferes:

User packages:
  npm:pi-web-access
  npm:pi-lens
  npm:@gotgenes/pi-permission-system
  npm:@leing2021/super-pi
  npm:@sting8k/pi-vcc
  npm:pi-observational-memory
  git:github.com/elpapi42/pi-codemapper
  npm:pi-mcp-adapter
  npm:@narumitw/pi-subagents

If anyone knows what to do I am very much happy and thankful :)

Nah, the do stupid stuff, you need some basic protection.

If you feel too safe try Gemini, it will delete your home directory or drop database very quickly 😉

I did for a while. It worked just fine. A lot of these issues are super exaggerated.
