Endpoint args like /user/... for gh api appear to be misclassified as filesystem absolute paths #1486
Bug summary: endpoint args like /user/... for gh api appear to be misclassified as filesystem absolute paths (triggering directory-allow behavior) even though they are API routes; expected behavior is to treat them as plain CLI arguments (or provide a temporary command-scoped allow override).
Workaround for report: use gh api user/codespaces/secrets (no leading slash) to avoid path-like interpretation.
Affected version
GitHub Copilot CLI 0.0.410.
Steps to reproduce the behavior
At some point the command tried to run was (with GPT 5.3 Codex):
GH_PAGER=cat gh api /user/codespaces/secrets --jq '.secrets[].name'|whileread -r name;do
vis=$(GH_PAGER=cat gh api "/user/codespaces/secrets/${name}" --jq '.visibility')
cnt=$(GH_PAGER=cat gh api "/user/codespaces/secrets/${name}" --jq '.selected_repositories_count // 0')done
This asked for allowing access to the path /user/codespaces/secrets
Expected behavior
Should not ask for this as it is not a path. OR: should have an option to just allow the command for now, as it is maybe hard to catch this foolproof.
This appears to be resolved as of GitHub Copilot CLI v1.0.107. Please update to that release or a newer stable version. We're closing this as completed. If it still happens, please comment with your version and reproduction steps.
