Legacy alias. Use /permissions in the current menu and new documentation.

Examples

/permissions

When to use it

  1. Use /approvals only when following old notes or muscle memory.
  2. Rewrite team playbooks to point users to /permissions.

Choosing related commands

CommandDifferenceChoose It When
/approvalsLegacy aliasYou need compatibility with old usage
/permissionsCurrent primary commandYou are writing new docs or training
/statusShows current policyYou need confirmation after changes

Effects and persistence

Applies the chosen permission policy or rules to later tool calls. Managed organization settings can restrict the available choices.

/approvals still works as an alias, but the official slash popup no longer lists it. Prefer /permissions in new documentation.

Cautions

  • Do not teach /approvals as the primary command in new material.
  • Use /permissions for clearer alignment with current docs.
