README
Simple Permissions for Pi
English
A permission management extension for Pi Coding Agent, providing operation admission control and sandboxed Bash execution.
Key Features
- Three Operation Modes (starts in
Autowhen the session has no saved selection):Default: All sensitive operations (file writes, Bash execution) require manual user confirmation.Auto: File writes within the current project directory and/tmpare allowed automatically. Bash commands run in abwrapsandbox (restricted write access). Mutating Git commands or permission escalations still require confirmation.YOLO(Unrestricted): Fully unrestricted. No sandboxing, no confirmation prompts. Like Pi with no security policy.
- Security Sandbox: Bash execution isolation based on
bubblewrap(bwrap) to prevent accidental modification of critical system paths. - Dynamic Control: Supports real-time mode switching via commands or shortcuts.
- State Persistence: Your mode selection is automatically saved within the session.
Installation
pi install npm:pi-simple-permissions
Or from source:
pi install git:github.com/Lytherion/pi-simple-permissions
Usage Guide
Commands
/permission: Open the mode selection menu./permission [default|auto|yolo]: Switch to a specific mode.
Shortcuts
Alt + M: Cycle through permission modes (Default -> Auto -> YOLO).
Security Tips
In Auto mode, if the LLM needs to perform actions outside the sandbox, it will request escalation via sandbox_permissions="require_escalated". You can decide whether to allow it based on the provided escalation_reason.
中文
这是一个为 Pi Coding Agent 设计的权限管理扩展,提供了操作准入控制和基于沙箱的 Bash 执行环境。
核心特性
- 三种工作模式(会话没有已保存选项时默认使用
Auto):Default(确认):所有敏感操作(写文件、执行 Bash)都需要用户手动确认。Auto(自动):在当前项目目录和/tmp下的写操作自动允许;Bash 命令在bwrap沙箱中执行(限制写权限);修改 Git 或越权操作需确认。YOLO(不限):完全放开限制。不再使用沙箱,不再弹出任何确认框。
- 安全沙箱:基于
bubblewrap(bwrap) 实现的 Bash 执行隔离,防止意外修改系统关键路径。 - 动态控制:支持实时切换模式和快捷键操作。
- 状态持久化:模式选择会自动保存到 Session 中。
安装方式
pi install npm:pi-simple-permissions
或者从源码安装:
pi install git:github.com/Lytherion/pi-simple-permissions
使用指南
命令
/permission:打开模式选择菜单。/permission [default|auto|yolo]:切换到指定模式。
快捷键
Alt + M:在 Default -> Auto -> YOLO 模式之间循环切换。
安全提示
在 Auto 模式下,如果 LLM 需要执行超出沙箱权限的操作,它会通过 sandbox_permissions="require_escalated" 向您申请提权,您可以根据其提供的 escalation_reason 决定是否允许。
