Approvals and change sets

When Copilot proposes writes, the chat shows a change set with tool names and arguments. Nothing applies until you approve.

Lifecycle

  1. Copilot returns explanation text plus optional tool proposals.
  2. You review the proposal (arguments are shown in the card).
  3. Approve runs validated tools through editor sagas / APIs.
  4. Reject discards the proposal with no writes.

Execute and destructive tools may require an extra per-action approval.

Tips

  • Prefer @Entity mentions so Copilot receives source context instead of asking you to paste code.
  • For query fixes, expect update_action proposals rather than code-only replies.
  • Greenfield “build an app” flows propose create_application first; approve to create and open the editor.
