Permission card
When Claude asks for permission to run a tool, the PermissionRequest hook sends the request to aq, and it becomes a permission card. Permission cards come first in the queue, because the session is stuck until you answer.
Keys
| Key | What it does |
|---|---|
y | allow, once you have scrolled to the end |
n | deny, with a reason Claude reads |
j k | scroll |
PgUp PgDn | scroll a page |
G | go to the end |
g | go to the session's window |
y works only once you have seen the whole request, so a long command cannot hide something at the end.
If you answer in the window
You can still answer the prompt in the session's own window. The card then stays, marked "answered elsewhere", until you press a key.
If aq is not running, or quits while a request waits, the normal permission prompt shows in the session's window.
