What's Wrong?

The tool approval dialog is too tall to fit on screen. The Allow/Deny buttons render below the visible area with no way to scroll to them, making it impossible to approve tool uses.

What Should Happen?

Dialog should have a max height with internal scroll, keeping the Allow/Deny buttons always visible.

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

Trigger a large Agent tool call with a long prompt. The approval dialog expands to full prompt length with no height cap or scroll.
