Problem or Use Case

Some MCPs have a few tools that would be nice to require user confirmation, such as sending a text message or destructive actions.

Proposed Solution

An option in the mcp config, or maybe globally? To specify tools that should require user confirmation similar to the confirmation of destructive commands

Alternatives Considered

No response

Feature Type

Configuration option

Scope

Small (single file, < 50 lines)

Contribution

  • I'd like to implement this myself and submit a PR

Debug Report (optional)

extent analysis

TL;DR

Add a configuration option to specify tools that require user confirmation.

Guidance

  • Identify the specific tools that need user confirmation, such as sending text messages or destructive actions.
  • Determine the best location for the configuration option, either in the MCP config or globally.
  • Consider the scope of the change, which is estimated to be small and limited to a single file with less than 50 lines.
  • Evaluate the potential impact on existing functionality and user experience.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue lacks specific technical details.

Notes

The solution requires careful consideration of the configuration option's implementation and its effects on the system.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Add a configuration option to require user confirmation for specific tools, as it is a targeted and minimal change that addresses the proposed solution.
