…sion keys Documents the complete 15-category permission block needed for zero-prompt autonomous agents, including external_directory which defaults to ask and fires on paths outside the working directory (/tmp, /sys, etc). Adds a warning that partial permission blocks leave surprise prompts and that built-in external-directory policies can take precedence over agent-level rules. Real-world motivation: a custom primary agent with only tool-level allows produced 32 external_directory prompts vs 3,513 allows in a single day of use. Co-authored-by: ox-alpha <[email protected]>

What does this PR do?
While setting up a fully autonomous primary agent I hit repeated
external_directoryprompts on ordinary paths (/tmp writes, /sys reads) even though every tool-level category was set to allow. The missing piece turned out to beexternal_directoryitself - easy to overlook since it only shows up in the config schema and defaults to ask.This adds two things to the permissions docs:
Apologies for the earlier description format - this one follows the template.
How did you verify your code works?
Rendered the MDX locally against the existing docs structure and confirmed the example matches a config I run daily on v1.18.21.
