approvals

builderforce approvals

Manage exec approvals for the local host, gateway host, or a node host. By default, commands target the local approvals file on disk. Use --gateway to target the gateway, or --node to target a specific node.

Common commands

builderforce approvals get
builderforce approvals get --node <id|name|ip>
builderforce approvals get --gateway

Replace approvals from a file

builderforce approvals set --file ./exec-approvals.json
builderforce approvals set --node <id|name|ip> --file ./exec-approvals.json
builderforce approvals set --gateway --file ./exec-approvals.json

Allowlist helpers

builderforce approvals allowlist add "~/Projects/**/bin/rg"
builderforce approvals allowlist add --agent main --node <id|name|ip> "/usr/bin/uptime"
builderforce approvals allowlist add --agent "*" "/usr/bin/uname"

builderforce approvals allowlist remove "~/Projects/**/bin/rg"

Notes

• --node uses the same resolver as builderforce nodes (id, name, ip, or id prefix).
• --agent defaults to "*", which applies to all agents.
• The node host must advertise system.execApprovals.get/set (macOS app or headless node host).
• Approvals files are stored per host at ~/.builderforce/exec-approvals.json.
