[BUG] Can't give permanent approval to read screenshots taken by Playwright
Environment
- Platform (select one):
- [X] Anthropic API
- [ ] AWS Bedrock
- [ ] Google Vertex AI
- [ ] Other: <!-- specify -->
- Claude CLI version: 1.0.10
- Operating System: MacOs Sonoma 14.3.1
- Terminal: iTerm 2
Bug Description
I use Playwright a lot to get Claude to manually test its implementations. That works great, but it often needs to take a screenshot and look at it. There doesn't appear to be a way to shift-tab/give it permanent authorisation to read a screenshot that it's taken with Playwright though:
<img width="1068" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cc580362-ef7f-485c-8662-b10b748c82f5" />
<img width="1070" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f25ebcbc-8960-4984-b914-0f2f4778d65a" />
This makes the agentic mode a lot less useful because I have to baby it constantly to give it authorisation to read its own screenshots.
Steps to Reproduce
- Set up Playwright MCP
- Get it to do something and check the results on dev
- It asks for permission to read screenshots without option to shift-tab.
Expected Behavior
Add option to shift-tab to give it permanent authorisation to do this.
Actual Behavior
No option to shift-tab.
