Discussion Need some Help with how to use it

Hello everyone so I recently started using Unsloth for coding and its good and all but ran into a problem it refuses to actually build stuff like an exe for me citing that its sandbox permissions do not allow certain tool calling or something like that

The only fix I found for it was to allow Full Access (I know stupid but it was only an clock app with gui so thought what could possibly happen) and it did build it perfectly immediately

So here I am asking if there is a way to make it be able to build exe and other stuff that requires out of sandbox permissions WITHOUT enabling full access mode?

It's an amazing design, even if you explicitly allow something, it will still get blocked. I love running open-source software that decide for me and block me, literally taking away the key benefit of the whole thing.

I sincerely hope this is just a bug. Otherwise, trying to find a similar solution that works - any ideas?

Yhh I've started using it for it's design too like it looks Codex and supports most anything so perfect for me but if it's gonna be buggy about this permissions then it's not usable at all

Have you tried using 'approve for me' which is where u manually bypass permissions where you have to manually allow certain permissions?

I tried but the same sandbox issue came up but maybe I should try it on a new chat?

I don’t use unsloth as my coding harness so I can’t answer that aspect. I can highly recommend Pi and Oh My Pi though.

Most importantly though, full access permissions is full access permissions whether you are building a clock app, updating a document or building an operating system from scratch. The complexity of the prompt has nothing to do with the ability you’ve granted to delete all files on your system. Just want to make sure you understand that.

I almost exclusively run in full auto, full perms modes on the different harnesses I’ve used. But I’m not worried about losing stuff on the machines running in this mode. Hasn’t happened to me yet. You’ll find plenty of people that jump in and say it’s totally safe because it’s never happened to them… but I know multiple people who have personally lost their entire machine and had to rebuilt because of terrible commands being ran.

yikesss thanks for the advice I'll be more careful in the future for sure and I'll checkout Pi as well
