Approvals and safety
Approvals and safety
How Octo asks before it changes anything, and how to control which tools it can use.
OctoPress is designed so that Octo can look at everything but changes only what you allow.
- Approvals and permissions: the approval window and per-chat auto-approval.
- Questions, plans and handoffs: the other times Octo pauses for you.
- Tool access and roles: switch tools off and set the minimum WordPress role per tool.
- Approvals and permissions Review each change before it runs, and decide per chat whether Octo may approve selected tools automatically.
- Questions, plans and handoffs The windows where Octo asks you to answer, review a plan or switch agents before it continues.
- Tool access and roles Switch tools on or off, understand risk badges, and set the minimum WordPress role allowed to run each tool.
