Type Alias: Permission
ts
type Permission = "fs:read" | "fs:write" | "process" | "network" | "webview";Defined in: packages/sdk/src/permissions.ts:28
A capability an extension declares in its manifest (silo.permissions) to request access beyond the open workspace. With none declared, an extension's FileService / ProcessService access is confined to the workspace folder(s); each permission lifts one part of that confinement, and the user consents to the set at install.
fs:read— read files outside the workspace.fs:write— write files outside the workspace.process— run commands with a working directory outside the workspace.network— make outbound network requests. Declarative consent only until sandboxed execution lands (in-process code can reach the network directly); declare it so the capability is reviewable and shown at install.webview— use ExtensionContext.webview to get real DOM access, script execution, and native pixel capture inside an iframe you own, including cross-origin content. Declare it because this reaches into arbitrary embedded pages, not because it touches the filesystem/network directly.
