global-permission 0.0.2

Unified permission sync and enforcement for AI coding agent CLIs.

gperm

gperm is a unified permission manager for multiple AI coding agent CLIs.

It keeps permission profiles in one place, applies them to native config files when possible, and falls back to inline CLI flags when a tool does not expose persistent project-level settings.

Japanese README: README.ja.md

Features

• Unified permission profiles for claude, geminicli, copilot, codex, opencode, and antigravity
• Global config under XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gperm/config.toml
• Project override under ./.gperm/config.toml with higher precedence
• gperm config show displays the active config source chain
• gperm check shows drift between desired and native settings
• gperm sync updates native settings, interactive by default
• gperm inline prints inline flags for agents that support runtime permission flags
• gperm exec runs the target CLI with expanded inline flags
• Locale-aware CLI messages: English by default, Japanese when LANG / LC_* starts with ja

Supported agents

Agent	Alias	Tested version	Global	Project	Inline	Notes
Claude Code	claude	2.1.62	Native	Native	Native	Uses ~/.claude/settings.json and ./.claude/settings.json
Gemini CLI	gemini, geminicli	0.31.0	Native	Native	Native	Generates policy TOML under gperm-managed directories
GitHub Copilot CLI	copilot, copilot cli, copilot-cli	1.0.2	Native	Partial	Native	Persistent project trust is stored in global config; tool rules are runtime-only
Codex CLI	codex	0.112.0	Native	Native	Native	Project trust is managed through global projects."<path>" entries
OpenCode	opencode	1.2.24	Native	Native	None	No documented inline permission flags in gperm 0.0.1
Antigravity	antigravity	1.107.0	Experimental	Experimental	None	Inferred from installed settings keys, not vendor docs

Native config locations

Agent	Global config	Project config
Claude Code	~/.claude/settings.json	./.claude/settings.json
Gemini CLI	~/.gemini/settings.json and ~/.gemini/trustedFolders.json	./.gemini/settings.json
GitHub Copilot CLI	~/.copilot/config.json	No native project config file; gperm uses global trust entries and inline flags
Codex CLI	~/.codex/config.toml	./.codex/config.toml
OpenCode	~/.config/opencode/opencode.json or .jsonc	./opencode.json
Antigravity	~/.config/Antigravity/User/settings.json	./.vscode/settings.json

Install

uv sync
uv run gperm --help

Commands

gperm --help
gperm --version
gperm agents
gperm config init
gperm config show
gperm check
gperm sync
gperm inline codex
gperm exec copilot -- -p "review this repo"

Config resolution

Resolution order:

1. Built-in defaults
2. XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gperm/config.toml
3. ./.gperm/config.toml

The project-local ./.gperm/config.toml wins over the XDG config.

Example config

version = 1
default_profile = "balanced"

[profiles.safe]
approval = "plan"
sandbox = "read-only"
trust = false

[profiles.balanced]
approval = "default"
sandbox = "workspace-write"
trust = true
allow_shell = ["git status", "git diff"]
deny_shell = ["git push"]

[agents.codex]
profile = "balanced"
command = "codex"

[project]
profile = "safe"

Notes

• gperm updates only permission-related keys and leaves unrelated settings intact.
• JSONC files are parsed correctly, but comments and whitespace may be normalized on write.
• For agents that cannot persist some permission concepts natively, gperm reports the gap instead of silently dropping it.
• Gemini sidecar policy files are generated under ~/.config/gperm/generated/ or ./.gperm/generated/.

Release automation

Merged PRs into main can trigger an automatic release when the PR carries exactly one of these labels:

• release:patch
• release:minor
• release:major

The repository now includes:

• prepare-release.yml
• publish-release.yml
• scripts/release.py

Required GitHub secrets:

• RELEASE_GITHUB_TOKEN
• PYPI_API_TOKEN

For a smoke test, a docs-only PR with one release label is enough to exercise the full pipeline.
