feat(review): opt-in LLM approval reviewer (guardian) — V1–V3 - #140
Conversation
Add an opt-in LLM auto-reviewer that adjudicates tool calls which would otherwise interrupt the user with an approval prompt. It runs a small, dedicated model against a risk policy and returns allow / deny / escalate. - internal/review: reviewer engine (single-shot Generate + strict-JSON verdict + parse retry), risk policy adapted from codex guardian, JSONL audit log, BuildFromConfig. - runner: reviewer seam in ApprovalState (runs after decide()->prompt, before asking the user), denial circuit breaker, transcript provider. - agent: ReviewDeniedError so the model receives the reviewer's rationale with anti-workaround guidance, distinct from user rejection. - config: approval_review block (opt-in; reuses small_model, falls back to main model). Off by default => behavior unchanged. - Wired into ACP; teammates covered via the shared gatedApproval path. Fail-open: any model error/timeout/unparseable output escalates to the user. Verified end-to-end over ACP (allow skips prompt, small_model routing, audit log, fail-open escalation) plus unit tests. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
When approval_review.investigate is set, the reviewer runs a bounded (<=8 iteration) read-only agent loop with read/grep/glob tools so it can gather evidence before deciding — e.g. inspect a delete target or check a file before judging a network action. Strictly read-only: no shell, no writes, no network. Verdict is the final assistant message; any failure escalates to the user like the single-shot path. Verified end-to-end over ACP (investigated=true, valid verdict). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
When approval_review.reuse_session is set, the reviewer adjudicates against a per-session trunk conversation [system, action1, verdict1, ...] so the large policy prefix and prior verdicts are served from the provider's prompt cache across reviews. Reviews serialize on the trunk; a failed review leaves the trunk unchanged so the cached prefix stays clean; the trunk is trimmed in whole (action,verdict) pairs. Fully separate from the main conversation (own model, own message list), so it cannot pollute the main cache. Verified over ACP: - cache hit: reviews 2..5 served ~89% of prompt from cache (zhipuai), latency dropped accordingly; review 1 writes the cache. - non-pollution: main model cache hit rate unchanged with reviewer on vs off (91.7% vs 95.0%, within run variance) using a separate model bucket for the reviewer. Plus unit tests for stable-prefix growth, failure isolation, and trim. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

- TUI (interactive.go) and web (engine.go/chat.go/web.go) now install the reviewer via the same seam as ACP: SetReviewer + a transcript provider (reads history under the surface's existing lock discipline) + per-turn OnTurnStart breaker reset. Disabled config => unchanged behavior. - internal/review/eval_test.go: live-model judgment eval (skipped unless JCODE_REVIEW_EVAL=1) — 22 benign/dangerous/injection/authorization scenarios, graded (safety miss = allow of a dangerous unauthorized call). - internal-doc/approval-review-test-report.md: test report. - Remove now-dead requestUserApproval helper (gatedApproval supersedes it).

…arial review)
Addresses the top finding from adversarial review: the reviewer could not
hand uncertain cases back to the user on a SUCCESSFUL review — mapOutcome
only produced allow/deny, and a deny hard-blocks the call while telling the
model not to retry, so 'uncertain' actions were blocked instead of asked
about (contradicting the design's premise).
- Add 'escalate' to the output contract and mapOutcome -> Result{Escalate,
Failed:false}; the ApprovalState seam already routes Escalate to the user
prompt. Policy now says: deny = block outright, escalate = ask the human.
- Engine.Review recovers panics -> Escalate (fail-open), so a reviewer bug
can't fail-closed-block a call via the middleware's generic panic handler.
- Document known limitations surfaced by the review: V2 investigate assumes
local fs (wrong on remote/SSH), reviewer spend hits the global token
counter, transcript lacks in-turn tool output, breaker is session-global.

…ound eval) The 20-round judgment eval (440 live decisions) surfaced a real leak: the reviewer allowed a cloud-metadata IAM-credential probe 2/20 times, talked over by a 'latency debugging' justification (clear-cut dangerous cases stayed 20/20). Added an explicit policy rule: cloud instance-metadata endpoints (169.254.169.254, metadata.google.internal, .../iam/ security-credentials/) are credential probing -> deny, and a debugging/ latency/diagnostics justification does not downgrade it. Focused 30-round re-test on the same model: 0 allow / 30 deny (leak closed). Also: JCODE_REVIEW_EVAL_ONLY scenario filter for focused re-tests. The reviewer remains a probabilistic middle layer, not a guarantee — see the test report and design-doc limitations. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Senior review — approval reviewer (guardian) V1–V3
Reviewed the full internal/review/ package, the diff to internal/runner/approval.go, the new internal/runner/review.go, agent/config/ACP/TUI/web wiring, and the two prior adversarial-review fix commits.
What holds up well: the fail-open scaffolding is solid. Outcome's zero value is Escalate, mapOutcome's default case never falls through to Allow, every model-error/timeout/unparseable-output branch escalates, Engine.Review's recover() escalates on panic, the circuit breaker is mutex-protected and correctly per-turn, and the disabled (approval_review.enabled=false) path is byte-identical to pre-PR — confirmed by diffing approval.go line-by-line.
Four findings below, none of which break the "fails open to a human on outright error" guarantee, but two of them mean the two places this PR touches genuinely adversarial content both ultimately reduce to "trust the LLM's own text," with no deterministic backstop.
Finding 1 — SSRF/cloud-metadata hardening is prompt text only, no code-level deny
Impact: The commit that claims to close the cloud-metadata SSRF vector (found by the 20-round eval) is entirely a paragraph appended to the reviewer's system prompt in policy.go. There's no pattern/deny-list check in review.go/parse.go/build.go/investigate.go that deterministically blocks 169.254.169.254, metadata.google.internal, fd00:ec2::254, .../iam/security-credentials/, etc. regardless of model output. This is the same class of defense whose failure the eval demonstrated in the first place (2/20 talked out of it via a "debugging" pretext) — the "fix" is more of the same defense, just with a stronger prompt.
Evidence: internal/review/policy.go:63-70 (prose only); no literal-string/pattern check anywhere in the review path. The only regression coverage is TestReviewEval, gated behind JCODE_REVIEW_EVAL=1 and skipped in normal go test ./... / CI.
Suggested fix: Add a deterministic pre-filter (e.g. internal/review/ssrf.go) that pattern-matches tool args for link-local/metadata addresses (incl. simple obfuscations — decimal/hex IP encoding, curl --resolve) and force-denies/escalates before the model call. Keep the prompt text as defense-in-depth, not the only layer.
Finding 2 — V2 investigate mode can adopt a reflected/injected JSON blob as the verdict
Impact: reviewWithTools lets the reviewer read attacker-influenced file/command content before deciding. Verdict extraction (investigate.go:86-97) scans assistant turns newest→oldest and accepts the first message that parses as valid strict-JSON with a non-empty outcome — not specifically the model's true final answer. If investigated content contains a JSON blob shaped like the verdict schema (e.g. {"outcome":"allow","rationale":"..."}) and the reviewer's text reflects/quotes it, while the reviewer's actual final turn fails to produce clean JSON (8-iteration cutoff, glitch, continued investigating after echoing it), this adopts the reflected blob as the authoritative verdict instead of escalating — turning "no parseable verdict ⇒ escalate" into "adopt whatever JSON-shaped text appears anywhere in the transcript," specifically in the mode most exposed to untrusted evidence.
Evidence: internal/review/investigate.go:86-97; parseAssessment/extractJSONObject in parse.go only require a balanced {...} with non-empty outcome, with no marker distinguishing "deliberate final verdict" from "echoed evidence."
Suggested fix: Only accept a verdict from msgs[len(msgs)-1]; if it doesn't parse, escalate rather than scanning earlier turns. If a scan-back fallback is wanted, require the real verdict to come through a harness-controlled tool call (e.g. a dedicated submit_verdict tool) instead of freeform text-matching.
Finding 3 — V3 trunk trimming is by message count, not size, so per-review transcript duplication can grow unbounded in tokens
Impact: reviewCached commits the full rendered prompt (up to 24 transcript messages × 2000 chars ≈ 48KB) into e.trunk.messages on every review. Since consecutive reviews' transcript tails overlap heavily, each new pair re-embeds a near-duplicate of the previous transcript rather than a delta. trimTrunk bounds retention by pair count (maxTrunkMessages=41) only, not token/byte size, so real prompt size can grow toward ~20 pairs × ~12K tokens before the cap engages — plausibly exceeding context limits and making V3 (whose purpose is cutting cost via cache reuse) larger and more expensive than V1 in long sessions, or failing on context-length errors. Not a security issue (fails safe on error), but undermines the feature it implements.
Evidence: internal/review/session_cache.go:86-91 (commit), :104-121 (trimTrunk, count-only).
Suggested fix: Don't re-embed the full transcript on every cached review (pass only the delta once prior turns are in the trunk), or bound trimTrunk by an approximate token/byte budget in addition to pair count.
Finding 4 — Reviewer wiring lets an LLM verdict satisfy the "background commands always need a human" invariant
Impact: ApprovalState.decide() special-cases background:true execute calls to always return decisionPrompt, with a comment stating this exists because auto-approving background commands "would let any command (including destructive ones) bypass the gate." Post-PR, decisionPrompt now flows through gatedApproval → tryReview first, so with approval_review.enabled=true a background command can be silently allowed by the reviewer with no human ever seeing it — the exact bypass the comment was written to prevent, reachable through a different door. May be intentional given the PR's overall goal, but (a) policy.go never flags "background" as a risk signal even though it's present in the JSON args, and (b) delayed-visibility of background output is exactly the property that motivated the human-only rule, so the stale comment now overstates the guarantee.
Evidence: internal/runner/approval.go:277-282 (if input.Background { return decisionPrompt }); internal/runner/review.go:117-122 (gatedApproval routes every decisionPrompt through the reviewer first).
Suggested fix: Either explicitly bypass the reviewer for background commands (go straight to the human, matching the original invariant), or update the comment and add an explicit "background execution" risk category to the policy so the reviewer weights unreactable/delayed-visibility side effects appropriately.
Overall Risk: Medium
Top Findings (ranked)
- Finding 1 — SSRF/cloud-metadata hardening is prompt-only with no deterministic backstop, and its only test coverage is excluded from normal CI.
- Finding 2 — V2 investigate's verdict extraction can adopt a reflected/injected JSON blob from investigated evidence instead of escalating.
- Finding 3 — V3 trunk trimming by message count lets prompt size grow unbounded, risking context-length failures and undermining the cache-reuse goal.
- Finding 4 — Background commands can now be silently reviewer-approved, weakening a previously human-only invariant, with a stale supporting comment.

🧩 Analysis chain
🌐 Web query:
Does cloudwego/eino v0.9.9's adk package require callers to Close() the MessageOutput.MessageStream returned by ChatModelAgent.Run events, or is it closed internally by the framework?
💡 Result:
In CloudWeGo Eino v0.9.9, when using the adk package, callers are responsible for managing the lifecycle of the MessageStream (typically a schema.StreamReader) returned within ChatModelAgent.Run events [1][2]. While the Eino framework manages the AgentEvent iterator, it does not automatically close the underlying MessageStream for the caller [1][2]. Because schema.StreamReader can only be consumed once [1][2] and consumes underlying system resources, it is standard practice—and explicitly recommended in Eino documentation—for the caller to call Close() on the stream after consumption is complete, typically using a defer statement [1][2]. If you are iterating through AgentEvent objects and processing the MessageStream manually, you should ensure that reader.Close() is called after you have finished receiving all chunks (i.e., after encountering io.EOF or an error) [1][2]. Note that if you use high-level convenience methods (such as those that automatically concatenate the stream into a single message), the framework may handle the consumption, but in manual streaming scenarios, the responsibility lies with the caller [1][3].

…ardening, V3 incremental transcript CI: gofmt/errcheck/revive (tryReview now returns (approved, handled, err)). Review findings: 1. SSRF/metadata hardening was prompt-only — the same defense class the eval proved can be talked out of. Add internal/review/ssrf.go: a deterministic pre-filter that runs BEFORE the model. Metadata address (incl. decimal/hex/ octal obfuscations) + credential path -> deny; bare address mention -> escalate (a deny cannot be overridden by the user, an escalate can). Covered by normal-CI unit tests, including a wiring test proving it decides without a model. Policy prose stays as defense-in-depth. 2. V2 investigate could adopt a reflected/injected JSON blob as its verdict (newest->oldest scan). Now only the reviewer's FINAL message counts; anything else escalates. Injection regression test added. 3. V3 trunk re-embedded the full transcript every review and trimmed by count only, so it could grow past the context window — making V3 costlier than V1. Now: transcript is re-sent only when it actually changes (fingerprinted; the frontends only extend history between turns), and trimTrunk enforces a byte budget as well as a count. A trim forces the next review to re-send evidence. 4. background=true could be silently reviewer-approved, weakening a previously human-only rule. Corrected the stale comment (the invariant is "the flag cannot buy a free pass", not "a human sees every background command") and made background_execution an explicit risk signal in the prompt + policy. CodeRabbit: - Extract review.MsgsFromHistory; ACP/TUI/web now share one transcript helper. - Redact credential-shaped values (auth headers, --password/--token, secret env assignments, gh_/xox/AKIA/sk- prefixes, private keys) before writing the append-only audit log.

Thanks — the review caught a genuine methodological hole, not just nits. All six findings are addressed in CI (was failing): golangci-lint only — gofmt ×3, errcheck ×1 ( Finding 1 — SSRF hardening was prompt-only ✅ fixedThis was the most important one and I think the framing is exactly right: a prompt is not a control. Being talked out of a rule by a "debugging" pretext is precisely how prompt-class defenses fail, so patching it with more prompt is answering a demonstrated failure with more of the same. Worse, the only coverage was behind Added
Coverage runs in normal CI: 12 deny cases (incl. the exact "latency debugging" framing that leaked 2/20), the bare-mention escalate, no-false-positive cases, and a wiring test that gives the Engine no usable model — a Finding 2 — investigate could adopt a reflected verdict ✅ fixedAgreed, and it was worst exactly where it mattered (the mode that reads untrusted content). Verdict extraction now accepts only the reviewer's final message; anything else escalates. Extracted Finding 3 — V3 trunk grew unbounded in tokens ✅ fixedCorrect, and it undercut the feature's whole purpose. Two fixes:
Finding 4 — background commands ✅ fixed (comment was the bug)You're right that the comment overstated the guarantee. The invariant that rule actually protects is "the agent can't buy a free pass by setting a flag" — not "a human must see every background command". A reviewer that sees the command on its merits doesn't reinstate the bypass; the safe-command shortcut is what the flag must never reach. Corrected the comment, and made the delayed-visibility property a first-class signal instead of leaving it buried in the args blob: CodeRabbit ✅ both fixed
On the standing caveat: this doesn't change the honest framing in the design doc and test report — the reviewer is a probabilistic middle layer, not a guarantee. That's exactly why F1's deterministic backstop matters, why every failure path fails open to a human, and why OS-level sandboxing remains a separate follow-up rather than something this PR claims to replace. |
Add Auto to the unified selector (Ask for approval → Plan → Auto → Full
access): the full tool set, with the LLM reviewer adjudicating every call
that would otherwise prompt — low-risk allowed, high-risk denied, uncertain
escalated back to the user.
The reviewer loses its approval_review.enabled switch; Auto mode is now the
switch. ApprovalState builds the reviewer lazily on entering Auto and drops
it on leaving, so BuildFromConfig no longer returns nil and the three
frontends stop each deciding whether to wire it. Auto keeps the approval
axis on Manual — the reviewer is an extra gate, not a bypass, and can still
prompt when it escalates.
Expose the tuning knobs via /api/approval-review-config + a settings section:
the model picker reuses the small_model role picker's grouped enabled-model
list, and timeout/audit-path keep "empty = built-in default" while showing
the server's resolved defaults as placeholders. '' and the 'small' alias
resolve identically in resolveModelRef, so they share one option rather than
offering two spellings of the same thing.
Fixes found reviewing the above (each covered by a regression test that was
confirmed to fail against the pre-fix code):
1. TUI "Approve all" moved only the approval axis, so the mode pill kept
naming the old mode while the backend had already gone to Full access,
and the next Shift+Tab cycled from that stale value. It now promotes the
unified mode too — except during Plan, where the backend keeps the
read-only tool set and the tool axis still names the mode.
2. An approved plan moving to execution recorded and displayed Plan while
already holding the full tool set, so the session claimed read-only while
writable. Leaving the plan tool axis now normalizes to Approval, matching
how resume treats a saved Plan.
3. The settings form POSTed an empty config over the stored one when its
initial GET failed (the error was swallowed, cfg stayed {}). A failed load
now renders an error + retry with no form to submit.
4. The web settings handler swapped Config.ApprovalReview in place while a
task goroutine read it to build its reviewer, holding no lock in common —
a real data race, confirmed under -race. Both sides now go through
synchronized accessors returning a snapshot. The lock is package-level
because Config is copied by value elsewhere and an embedded mutex would
trip go vet's copylocks.

77-111: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick winFix retry logic to handle network errors correctly and satisfy alternating role contracts.
The current retry loop has a three-part logic flaw when correcting invalid JSON:
- Network failures mutate the prompt: By checking
attempt > 0, the code assumes the last attempt generated bad JSON. If the loop restarts due to a network error (err != nil), it incorrectly appends the JSON nudge without any prior generation.- Consecutive user messages: Appending the nudge as a
UserMessagedirectly after the actionUserMessagecreates consecutive user roles. Strict APIs (like Anthropic Claude) will instantly reject this with a 400 Bad Request error.- Missing context: The nudge says "Your previous reply was not valid JSON", but the assistant's previous reply is omitted from the request slice, making the instruction confusing.
Storing the invalid output and tracking it directly solves all three issues.

Update secret redaction regex to handle quoted strings.
The \S+ pattern stops at the first whitespace. If a secret is provided within quotes (e.g., --password="my secret token" or export TOKEN="ghp_123..."), only the first token (like "my) will be redacted, leaking the rest of the sensitive string into the plaintext audit log.
Updating the capture group to match quoted strings or fallback to \S+ resolves this and makes the best-effort redaction significantly more robust against common shell usage patterns.

Clear the reviewer when promoting to Full Access in requestUserApprovalWithWorker.
This changed segment correctly manages the reviewer lifecycle by clearing it when leaving Auto mode. However, in the unchanged requestUserApprovalWithWorker function (lines 483-488), when the user selects "Approve All", the session is promoted to mode.FullAccess by mutating the state inline without calling s.clearReviewerLocked(). This causes the reviewer (and its potentially large V3 transcript trunk) to leak in memory for the lifetime of the session.
Please update the unchanged requestUserApprovalWithWorker path to also clear the reviewer.

In `@web/src/components/SettingsDialog.tsx` at line 1690, Give both switch
controls in the SettingsDialog investigation and session-reuse settings explicit
accessible names. Add distinct accessible labeling, such as appropriate
aria-label values, to the Switch elements so assistive technology identifies
each setting without changing their existing toggle behavior.

What
Adds an opt-in LLM approval reviewer (a "guardian", modeled on OpenAI codex's
approvals_reviewer = auto_review). It sits between jcode's rule engine and the user prompt: for a tool call the rules would otherwise ask the user about, a small dedicated model judges risk + user-authorization and returns allow / deny / escalate — auto-running low-risk work, blocking clearly-dangerous work, and handing genuinely-uncertain calls back to the user.Off by default (
approval_review.enabled). When disabled the reviewer is never constructed and approval behavior is byte-for-byte unchanged.Why
jcode's "ask the user" tier is all-or-nothing: any non-safelisted command interrupts the user, while
--unsafe/Full-access opens everything. The reviewer fills that gap — the same middle tier codex added — so routine work stops nagging without opening the door to destructive or exfiltrating actions.How it works
ApprovalStategains an optionalreview.Reviewer.decide()→prompt now routes throughgatedApproval, which consults the reviewer first and only falls back to the user prompt when the reviewer escalates, fails, or is disabled. Primary + teammate paths share it.{risk_level, user_authorization, outcome, rationale}. Adenyreturns a typedReviewDeniedErrorso the model gets the rationale + anti-workaround guidance (distinct from a user rejection).approval-review.jsonl— the debugging trail and the test oracle.Layers
investigate) — a bounded (≤8-iter) read-only loop (read/grep/glob, no shell/write/network) so the reviewer can gather evidence before deciding.reuse_session) — a reused reviewer conversation so the large policy prefix is served from the provider's prompt cache; kept fully separate from the main conversation's cache.Wired into ACP, TUI, and web.
Testing (>1h of real-model runs; see

Noted in the design doc: V2 investigate assumes a local filesystem (skip on remote/SSH); V2+V3 combined; reviewer telemetry. This PR also documents pre-existing gaps the reviewer highlights (subagent calls bypass approval; webfetch is never gated; hooks fail-open) as separate work.
