描述

What happened?

I am receiving the error "✕ Failed to persist policy for run_shell_command" when selecting "allow for all future sessions". I have verified the following: 1. Permissions: The directory ~/.gemini/policies is writable by my user. 2. Configuration: settings.json has "enablePermanentToolApproval": true. 3. File State: The auto-saved.toml file exists, is valid TOML, and is not locked by other processes. This appears to be an internal issue with the CLI's persistence logic or sandboxing constraints preventing the write operation. System: Linux (aarch64)

研究方向
Investigate the policy persistence logic in the gemini cli codebase, likely in modules related to tool approval and configuration. Look for the function that saves policies (e.g., persistPolicy) and trace the error message 'Failed to persist policy for run shell command'. Check the file handling of ~/.gemini/policies directory and the auto saved.toml file. Consider sandboxing constraints if any. Review the 15 comments in the issue for additional context and potential debugging steps.
