What feature would you like to see?
I don't like codex --yolo, but I also don't fancy having to give permission to access foobar.vercel.app, then give permission to access foobar.vercel.app/blog, etc. etc. Adopting this new CC feature would be amazing:

tab away to modify instructions when accepting/rejecting a permission prompt. This would make non-yolo codex much more usable, while at the same time nearly as secure as it is today

Any news on this?
@BellmannRichard, we typically prioritize feature requests by community upvote. This hasn't received any upvotes, so it's likely to get closed. Sometimes feature requests don't get upvotes because the title or description is unclear or phrased in a way that it doesn't appeal to other users. If you'd like, you could close this one and open a new one with an alternate title and description. Or we can keep this one open a little longer to see if it collects some upvotes.
This feature request hasn't received enough upvotes, so closing.
