Supervised Muse threads started without a permission profile, so Muse used its default profile. When signed in that default is :auto-review, which attaches an AI reviewer that can decide eligible approvals. Supervised should leave those decisions to the user.

T3 now selects a profile for the runtime mode on both session/start and session/resume: :ask-me for Supervised, :unrestricted for Full access. Resume carries it too, so existing threads and mode switches (which relaunch the host and resume) pick it up. Resume uses its own permissionProfile param because session/setPermissionProfile is only on Muse's experimental API and fails with experimentalRequired on T3's handshake.

Verified against Muse 1.4.7 with T3's handshake, reading permissionState back:

BeforeAfter
Supervised start:auto-review, reviewer autoReview:ask-me, reviewer human
Full access startlaunch override (profileId: null):unrestricted, reviewer none
Resume an existing :auto-review threadstays :auto-review:ask-me
Resume after switching modeskeeps the old profile:ask-me / :unrestricted

Added an adapter test for the start and resume params. Not verified: a Muse release older than 1.4.6 (1.4.7 ignores unknown session/start params, so older hosts should ignore the field), and a model turn showing an approval reach the user.

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable β€” This PR changes the effective default permission profile used by existing and new Muse sessions, including resumed supervised threads, which directly changes who approves commands. The implementation is focused and tested, but the product-default and permission-policy impact requires human review.

πŸ“ Walkthrough

Muse session start and resume requests now include a permission profile derived from the runtime mode. Tests cover approval-required and full-access for both session paths. Orchestration fixtures include the corresponding profile values. The status comment names the mode-to-behavior mappings.

Changes: Muse permission profiles

Layer / File(s)Summary
Map runtime modes to session profiles
packages/provider-muse/src/server/sdk.ts, packages/provider-muse/src/server/adapter.ts, packages/provider-muse/src/server/adapter.test.ts, packages/provider-muse/src/server/status.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/testkit/fixtures/*/muse_transcript.ndjson
musePermissionProfile maps full-access to :unrestricted and other runtime modes to :ask-me. Session start and resume send the mapped profile. Tests check both modes, including the approval mode set after resume. Transcript fixtures include profile values for session start. The status comment names the mappings. Two replaced fixture entries are unchanged.

Priority: βž– Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix Β· Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Suggested reviewers: t3dotgg

Merge Risk: βšͺ Minimal Β· up to 081ba

Supervised Muse threads now request the ask-me profile on both start and resume, so the user is asked before commands run. No concrete merge-blocking risk was found.

Security architecture risk: πŸ”΅ Low Β· up to 081ba

The change is intended to restore human approval in Supervised mode without expanding Full access. The request mapping and existing approval controls support that intent. Compatibility with older Muse releases and end-to-end approval delivery remain unverified.

Retained concerns No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred β€” The relevant authority is the Muse host's ability to execute commands, modify local resources, and use configured thread MCP access. Full-access already disables the process sandbox; the new profile selection does not introduce that privilege. The inspected change does not establish additional tenant-wide or service-wide exposure.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed β€” Native approval events are routed into pending application requests with session and turn ownership checks. Decisions are sent back using the offered approval choice and requirement identifiers. The existing automatic acceptance branch for workflow-child approvals is restricted to full-access, not approval-required.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred β€” Mode changes queue host detachment asynchronously. Even if the old live runtime is temporarily reused, a new turn with a different mode is rejected before prompt execution. This is existing counterevidence against a newly introduced stale-authority path, not proof that all native background work stops immediately when the displayed mode changes.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed β€” Establish supported-host behavior for both commands and, where available, confirm the effective permission profile before allowing execution. A live approval-required command should demonstrate delivery of the approval to the user. These would strengthen assurance; the missing verification is not an observed bypass.

Use Muse SDK 1.4.8 or later for resumed permission profiles.

packages/provider-muse pins SDK 1.4.6, whose resume facade omits permissionProfile before sending the request. The adapter test checks the parameters before this facade, so it still passes. Resumed sessions therefore cannot apply the selected runtime mode and may retain their previous authority.

Note

Written by claude-opus-5-5 on behalf of Maria

The adapter doesn't go through the SDK's resumeSession() facade, which is where RESUME_FORWARDED filters params. It sends session/resume with host.connection.command(method, params) (adapter.ts request, around line 376), and MspConnection.command forwards params as given plus commandId. So permissionProfile reaches the host on SDK 1.4.6.

This was also checked against a live Muse 1.4.7 host over T3's handshake: resuming a thread that was on :auto-review came back as :ask-me, and resuming after a switch to Full access came back as :unrestricted. Leaving the SDK pin as is.

@maria-rcks Thanks for the clarification. I incorrectly applied the resumeSession() facade’s filtering to the adapter’s direct host.connection.command() path.

The supplied code uses the direct path and includes permissionProfile in the resume parameters. Your live-host check also supports this behavior. I withdraw the SDK-upgrade recommendation.

5Learning: In packages/provider-muse/src/server/adapter.ts, the TypeScript Muse adapter sends session/resume through host.connection.command(), not the SDK resumeSession() facade. In muse-code/sdk 1.4.6, RESUME_FORWARDED filters the facade parameters but does not apply to this direct command path, which forwards permissionProfile. Do not require an SDK upgrade solely because of the facade's filtering.
