Add autoApprove configuration for all workflow tools in the MCP server configuration. This prevents users from having to manually approve each workflow tool call (like workflow_get_project_context) the first time they execute a task. The autoApprove list includes: - workflow_complete - workflow_needs_input - workflow_screenshot - workflow_show_task - workflow_create_task - workflow_list_tasks - workflow_get_project_context - workflow_set_project_context Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
Change the workflow MCP server configuration to be written to the user's ~/.claude.json under the worktree's project path instead of the project's .mcp.json file. This change is necessary because: - Project-scoped MCP servers in .mcp.json require user approval before use - Local-scoped MCP servers in ~/.claude.json under projects[path] are trusted - This eliminates the approval prompt when starting a task The autoApprove list for individual tools is still included to prevent per-tool approval prompts.

When executing a task, users had to manually approve the workflow MCP server because:
.mcp.json) require user approval in Claude CodeThe Solution:
~/.claude.jsonunderprojects[worktreePath].mcpServers- this makes it a "local-scoped" server that's trusted because it's in the user's own configautoApprovelist with all workflow tools to skip per-tool approvalsThe workflow tools auto-approved are:
