What
Writing to the artifact database, replying to comments and resolving comment threads used to raise an approval prompt. In a Cowork session with no one present to answer it, they now return a denial that tells the model not to retry during that session.
Details
Where an approval card can still be shown on Cowork surfaces, database write approval no longer lasts the rest of the session; it asks again on every write.
Resolving a comment thread used to be allowed automatically and now asks on Cowork surfaces.
Evidence
Database writes from this Cowork session need the approval card, and no one can answer it in this session.
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
