Artifact database and asset actions get context-aware approval checks

Artifact database reads/writes and asset actions (delete, create, publish) now compute approval from plan mode, batch size, and call origin instead of always requiring a human, plus a new Windows-path safety check.

Artifact database reads/writes and asset actions (delete, create, publish) now compute approval from plan mode, batch size, and call origin instead of always requiring a human, plus a new Windows-path safety check.

What

  • Permission checks for the artifact database's read_db/write_db actions now consider whether the call is a served/background call, whether it's a multi-entry batch, and the current permission mode, instead of always requiring human approval.
  • The same actions gained a new safety check that flags a decision with a "suspicious Windows path" classifier when a risky path condition is detected.
  • Other artifact actions, deleting an asset (delete_asset), creating from a type, and publishing, now compute approval the same context-aware way, also factoring in whether the artifact is already owned or consented to, instead of a hardcoded "must be a human" rule.

Why This lets routine, low-risk artifact operations proceed automatically in more cases while still requiring human approval when the context is riskier (unusual paths, non-batch human-initiated calls), reducing unnecessary approval prompts without loosening protection where it matters.
