v4.2.0 - Better Auto Approvals

[ravitemer]

Guys, Now mcphub manages auto approval behavior of tool calls rather than depending on chat plugins. This also respects the gta or codecompanion_auto_tool_mode for codecompanion plugin.

We can toggle the auto approval for our mcphub with ga in the Hub view. This internally toggles the vim.g.mcphub_auto_approve variable.

With this update many issues with auto approvals are fixed. We right away return error if the tool was called with incorrect parameters rather than asking for an approval first. We can now control how we want to show the approval window (which current uses the vim.ui.confirm but a custom window might be good for lengthy text in approvals).

Changes needed

Codecompanion

Remove requires_approval from opts

require("codecompanion").setup({
    strategies = {
        chat = {
            tools = {
                ["mcp"] = {
                    -- calling it in a function would prevent mcphub from being loaded before it's needed
                    callback = function() return require("mcphub.extensions.codecompanion") end,
                    description = "Call tools and resources from the MCP Servers",
                }
            }
        }
    }
})

Avante

auto_approve_mcp_tool_calls is now deprecated. You can remove it.

extensions = {
    avante = {
     }
}
