# Task 09: File- and Directory-Level Approvals
> *This task is specific to codex-rs.*
## Status
**General Status**: Not started
**Summary**: Not started; missing Implementation details (How it was implemented and How it works).
## Goal
Enable fine-grained approval controls so users can whitelist edits scoped to specific files or directories at runtime, with optional time limits.
## Acceptance Criteria
- In the approval dialog, offer “Allow this file always” and “Allow this directory always” options alongside proceed/deny.
- Prompt for a time limit when granting a file/dir approval, with default presets (e.g. 5min, 1hr, 4hr, 24hr).
- Introduce runtime commands to inspect and manage granular approvals:
- `/approvals list` to view active approvals and remaining time
- `/approvals add [file|dir] <path> [--duration <preset>]` to grant approval
- `/approvals remove <id>` to revoke an approval
- Persist granular approvals in session metadata, keyed by working directory. On session resume in a different directory, warn the user and discard all file/dir approvals.
- Automatically expire and remove approvals when their time limits elapse.
- Reflect file/dir-approval state in the CLI shell prompt or title for quick visibility.

## Notes
- Store approvals with {id, scope: file|dir, path, expires_at} in session JSON.
- Use a background timer or check-before-command to prune expired entries.
- Reuse existing command-parsing infrastructure to implement `/approvals` subcommands.
- Consider UI/UX for selecting presets in TUI dialogs.
