Codex ACP terminal tool doesn't show command it's about to run #65727

Open

Description

@tredondo

Reproduction steps

  1. Start a Codex ACP session (with Workspace access permission)
  2. Run a prompt that will make the agent trigger a permission prompt, e.g. "Commit all files"
  3. Notice that the command the agent wants to run is not shown.

Current vs. Expected behavior

Current: the command is invisible

The next command was git commit:

Expected

The command should be fully visible (even if its text was not selectable)

    Additional recent context for triagers

    Recently closed, possibly the same bug:

    • Tool calls do not show command run #63888 (closed as duplicate) — Closed as duplicate; describes the exact same symptom — the ACP terminal tool approval UI stopped showing the actual command to be executed, making it impossible to review. The new issue reports the same invisible command in the Codex ACP permission prompt. The triager should check what canonical issue Tool calls do not show command run #63888 was closed as a duplicate of and point the reporter there.

    This is an automated analysis and might be incorrect.

    Hmm, probably broke with agentclientprotocol/codex-acp#620 being merged.

    @yeskunall My Zed version dates from before that merge.
