## QA Verification Complete ✅ **Status:** PASSED **Verified by:** code-verification-qa agent **Date:** 2026-01-03 ### Summary The PermissionRulesManager implementation is **complete and verified**. All QA criteria met, all 40 tests pass, and code quality is excellent. ### Test Results - **Unit tests:** 40/40 passed (100%) - **Manual tests:** All QA criteria verified - **Edge cases:** Properly handled - **Settings preservation:** Verified ### QA Criteria Results ✅ Can read existing permission rules ✅ Can add rule to allow/deny/ask ✅ Can remove rule from any list ✅ Validates tool patterns (simple, parameterized, MCP) ✅ Persists to correct settings file ### Additional Features Verified ✅ Multi-source support (user/project/local) ✅ Move rules between types ✅ Clear operations ✅ Additional directories management ✅ Error handling and graceful degradation ### Code Quality ✅ Follows project patterns ✅ Comprehensive test coverage ✅ Proper error handling ✅ Type hints throughout ✅ Clear documentation **No issues found. Implementation ready for production.** Full report: /tmp/qa-CLIAPI-25.md

## Implementation Complete ### What was implemented Created `PermissionRulesManager` service at `src/cli_agent_api/services/permission_rules_manager.py` following the patterns from `HookManager` and `ConfigReader`. ### Features - **Read operations**: Get all rules, get rules by type (allow/deny/ask) - **Add operations**: Add rules with pattern validation, no duplicates - **Remove operations**: Remove specific rules from any list - **Move operations**: Move rules between types (e.g., ask → allow) - **Clear operations**: Clear all rules for a type or all rules - **Additional directories**: Set/add/remove additional directories Claude can access - **Pattern validation**: Validates tool patterns (simple, parameterized, MCP) - **Multi-source support**: Works with user/project/local settings files - **Settings preservation**: Preserves other settings when writing ### Pattern validation supports - Simple patterns: `Read`, `Write`, `Bash` - Parameterized: `Bash(npm:*)`, `Read(*.env)` - MCP patterns: `mcp__server__action` ### Tests 40 unit tests covering all functionality: - Initialization - Pattern validation - Get/add/remove/clear/move operations - Additional directories management - Multi-source support - Edge cases ### Verification - All 40 new tests pass - All 105 related service tests pass (config_reader, hook_manager, permission_rules_manager) - No regressions in existing functionality ### Files changed - `src/cli_agent_api/services/permission_rules_manager.py` (new, 560 lines) - `tests/unit/test_permission_rules_manager.py` (new, 662 lines) Merged to CLIAPI-1 in commit f28d280.

## Feature Triage Complete **Status:** PARTIALLY IMPLEMENTED **Summary:** Read operations already exist via ConfigReader service. The feature request is specifically for CRUD operations (Create, Update, Delete) on permission rules. Currently only READ is implemented. **Existing Components:** - `ConfigReader` - reads/merges settings from user/project/local sources - `PermissionRules` model - full Pydantic model for allow/deny/ask rules - `PermissionManager` - handles runtime permission requests (different from config management) **What's Needed:** - New `PermissionRulesManager` service for write operations - Pattern validation for permission rules - File persistence with proper error handling - API endpoints for CRUD operations **Implementation Location:** - `src/cli_agent_api/services/permission_rules_manager.py` (new) - Follows existing patterns from ConfigReader and HookManager **Complexity:** Medium - straightforward service following existing conventions See full triage report at `/tmp/triage-CLIAPI-25.md`
