Change permissions mid-session

approvals & sandbox

// what it does

Type /permissions in the composer to change what Codex may do without asking, mid-session and without restarting. /status shows the current model, sandbox, and approval mode so you can confirm the change took effect.

// shell

$ /permissions
$ /status

// gotcha

If you are reaching for /approvals, the current command is /permissions. Changes apply to the running session only — persist them with sandbox_mode and approval_policy in config.toml.
