[BUG] permission: "allow" and permission.* = "allow" still trigger approval prompts #28482
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
Even when permissions are fully set to "allow" in opencode.json, OpenCode still asks for confirmation before editing, deleting, or executing commands.
Example config:
{
"$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
"permission": {
"*": "allow",
"edit": "allow",
"bash": "allow",
"read": "allow",
"webfetch": "allow"
}
}
Expected behavior
When permissions are set to "allow", OpenCode should execute actions without asking for confirmation.
Actual behavior
OpenCode still shows approval prompts for:
editing files
deleting files
overwriting files
running bash commands
Environment
OpenCode version: latest
OS: Linux
Installed via: npm
This seems inconsistent with the permissions documentation.Reacted by Erik Kubica, Sandro Santilli and Alex

I'm having this exact problem of wildcard still triggering approval with OpenCode 1.17.7
