[FEATURE]: Restore per-session auto-accept permissions toggle in Desktop UI #21578
Closed as not planned
Description
Feature hasn't been suggested before.
- I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
Describe the enhancement you want to request
Description
In v1.4.0, the auto-accept permissions button was moved from the session-level UI to global Settings. This removed the ability to toggle auto-accept per session, which was a highly practical workflow feature.
Previous Behavior (v1.3.x)
- A toggle/icon was available directly in the session UI
-
- Users could enable auto-accept for a specific session without affecting other sessions
-
-
- This allowed a quick "trust this session" workflow - one click and the session flowed without interruptions
-
-
-
-
- When starting a new session, permissions defaulted back to the configured behavior
-
-
Current Behavior (v1.4.0)
- Auto-accept is now only available as a global setting in Settings
-
- Enabling it affects all sessions across all projects
-
-
- There is no way to scope auto-accept to a single session anymore
-
Why Per-Session Was Better
- Granular control: Users could decide trust level based on the specific task at hand
-
- Safety: A quick exploratory session could have auto-accept ON, while a production deployment session could keep confirmations
-
- Workflow speed: One click per session vs. navigating to Settings, toggling, working, then navigating back to toggle off
-
- Principle of least privilege: Global auto-accept is an all-or-nothing approach that goes against security best practices
Proposal
Restore the per-session auto-accept toggle in the Desktop session UI, while keeping the global setting in Settings as a default/override. This gives users both options:
- Global setting: Sets the default behavior for new sessions
-
- Per-session toggle: Allows overriding for specific sessions
Environment
- OpenCode v1.4.0 Desktop (Windows 11)
-
- Previously working in v1.3.17 and earlier

Thanks for flagging the related issues. This is indeed related to #3419 and #7928 - the core ask is the same: restore per-session granularity for auto-accept permissions, which was removed in v1.4.0 when it was moved to global Settings only. Adding my voice and specific use case details to support this request.

Can we please look at adding this back? It's really annoying having to click a few more times for every chat. It was great earlier
