"""Human prompt surfaces for :mod:`tools.approval`.
The interactive CLI prompt (callback panel or ``input()`` fallback) and the
operator-selected plugin approval transport. Detection, allowed scopes,
persistence, timeout policy and the final authorization stay host-owned in
``tools.approval``; this module only asks and reports the answer.

Args:
allow_permanent: When False, hide [a]lways (tirith warnings present:
broad permanent allowlisting is wrong for content-level findings).
allow_session: When False, hide [s]ession too — the caller grants one
operation and re-asks next time (the protected agent-instruction
gate in ``tools/file_tools.py``). Offering a scope the caller
discards makes every later write re-prompt and reads as broken.
smart_denied: Owner override of a Smart DENY: offer only once/deny.
approval_callback: CLI prompt_toolkit callback,
``(command, description, *, allow_permanent=True,
allow_session=True, smart_denied=False) -> str``. Legacy
signatures keep working while both keywords hold their defaults.
Returns: 'once', 'session', 'always', 'deny', or 'timeout'. 'timeout'
means no user response — still blocked (fail-closed), but callers
report "no response" rather than an explicit denial.
