When Rovo CLI tool is running multiline `cat` it requires permission for every content line

[Palo Otčenáš]

When running RovoDev CLI and the `cat` tool is used with multiline content (heredoc) like:

cat > somefile.txt < 'EOF'\nWHAT\nEVER\nHERE...

Rovo asks me for allowing every line of the the content, e.g.

WHAT -> I need to allow to continue

EVER -> I need to allow to continue

HERE -> I need to allow to continue

Why? How to work around it ? Should I include something in my config, like "don't do multiline cat commands" ?

Thanks

Hey @Palo Otčenáš !

RovoDev CLI prompts for every line when using multiline cat commands (like with heredocs) as a security measure, this ensures you explicitly approve each line being written to a file. There isn’t a config option to disable this prompt for multiline input; it’s intentional for auditability and safety.

Workarounds:

• Use single-line commands (e.g., echo -e "line1\nline2" > file.txt)

• Write content to a file locally and upload it, instead of using a multiline cat in the CLI

If this prompt is disruptive, we recommend these alternatives.

Let us know if you need more help!

Kindest regards,
