+# Story 62: Agent Permission Prompts in Web UI
+
+## User Story
+
+As a user interacting with an agent through the web UI, I want to be prompted for permission approvals (e.g. file writes, commits) so that the agent can complete tasks that require elevated permissions without getting blocked.
+
+Right now, the web UI does not have any way of the user allowing permissions requests, so dev processes are basically blocked. 
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] When an agent action requires permission (e.g. writing to a file, committing), the web UI surfaces a prompt to the user
+- [ ] The user can approve or deny the permission request from the UI
+- [ ] On approval, the agent continues with the requested action
+- [ ] On denial, the agent receives the denial and adjusts its approach
+- [ ] Permission prompts display enough context (file path, action type) for the user to make an informed decision
+
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+- Bulk/blanket permission grants (e.g. "allow all writes to this directory")
+- Persisting permission decisions across sessions
