The tool that reads a directory from an MCP server used to always ask for permission. It now allows the read without asking when the server's directory listing matches what is already in the conversation from an MCP skill message.\n\nThe tool that lists MCP resources also picks which servers to look at in a different way.\n\n**Why**\n\nYou should see fewer permission prompts for MCP directory reads.\n\n- Area: MCP\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
