📢 gta Behavior Change for MCPHub Users

[ravitemer]

Hi guys, with MCPHub v5.8.0, there is a behaviour change with respect to gta mode.

vim.g.codecompanion_auto_tool_mode is no longer automatically checked by MCPHub. Previously, using gta in CodeCompanion or setting vim.g.codecompanion_auto_tool_mode = true would auto-approve ALL MCP tool calls, even those not configured for auto-approval in the UI or servers.json.

Migration: Include the check in your custom function if needed:

require("mcphub").setup({
    auto_approve = function(params)
        -- Respect CodeCompanion's auto tool mode
        if vim.g.codecompanion_auto_tool_mode == true then
            return true
        end
          -- Auto-approve GitHub issue reading
        if params.server_name == "github" and params.tool_name == "get_issue" then
            return true -- Auto approve
        end
        
        -- Block access to private repos
        if params.arguments.repo == "private" then
            return "You can't access my private repo" -- Error message
        end
        

        return false -- Show confirmation
    end,
})

Auto-Approval Priority

The system checks auto-approval in this order:

1. Function: Custom auto_approve function (if provided)
2. Server-specific: autoApprove field in server config
3. Default: Show confirmation dialog

This new system gives you fine-grained control over MCP tool approval based on actual arguments and context! Please the discussion for information.

Thanks 💖
