dsh-auto-approval

English · 简体中文

In DSH (DeepSeek Harness), agents trigger approval prompts for out-of-sandbox writes, command runs, etc. Under the "Auto Approve" preset, this plugin hands every approval request to a fixed reviewer model for a verdict:

approval request ──► collect evidence (tool call + args + egress payload pre-read)
                        │
                        ▼
              reviewer model (fixed route, immune to
              the agent's hot model switches)
              embeds the full Codex Guardian policy
                        │
              ┌─────────┴─────────┐
              ▼                   ▼
            allow             deny / circuit-break
       (allow this once)   (reject with a readable reason)
              │
     channel failure → fail-closed to human, never silently allow

Features

• Independent review channel — endpoint, model, reasoning effort and timeout are configured separately; hot-swapping the agent's main model never touches the reviewer
• Full Codex Guardian policy — the risk (low/medium/high/critical) × authorization (unknown/low/medium/high) matrix; file/tool content counts as untrusted evidence, only explicit user instruction authorizes — "do what the file says" does not authorize the dangerous thing inside the file
• Payload samples — for egress-shaped actions the plugin pre-reads the file being written/uploaded (2KB excerpt) so the reviewer sees exactly what would leave the machine
• Three-state circuit breaker — 3 consecutive denials / 3 consecutive channel errors / 10 denials in a 50-review window; any trip fast-fails with a readable reason (parity with Codex's "stop and announce approval failure" behavior)
• Fail-closed — a dead review endpoint never results in an allow; requests fall back to the human approval UI
• Sidecar audit trail — every verdict (allow/deny/error/circuit-open/delegated) is appended to ~/.dsh/auto-approval-audit.jsonl with risk/authorization/rationale
• Dual API styles — responses (strict json_schema) or chat (OpenAI-compatible /chat/completions) for relay/proxy providers

Verified behavior (live cases)

Install

dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-auto-approval

Restart DSH Web, then fill in Settings → Plugins → Plugin config → DSH 自动审批:

The 连通与策略 section has a one-click connectivity test (sends a real probe review and shows the verdict, risk/auth grades, rationale and latency — verifying endpoint, model, key, API style and policy in one shot) and a policy-document editor (the full Codex Guardian policy text ships built-in; edit or replace it, effective on the next review without restart):

Then: any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, a reviewer model, and the API key (stored in the DSH credential store, never in the repo). Pick the Auto Approve preset in a session to activate.

Development

pnpm install
pnpm run build   # tsc + client bundle
pnpm test        # vitest: evidence recovery, output parsing tolerance, breaker states, error breaker

• Codex sandboxing/auto-review docs

Deep dives

• Architecture — the approval waterfall mount point, evidence assembly, dual API styles, three-state breaker, and the sidecar-audit decision
• Policy & verdicts — the risk × authorization matrix, untrusted-evidence rules, the two-condition injection test, and known limits
• Field notes — three days of gotchas: traceable-proxy receiver loss, the session-log vocabulary brick, four relay-channel quirks, and the live testing methodology
