Python: Skill provider is asking the approval always when used in the hosted agents.

[mohitpavan]

Skill provider recently started asking for the approval in every chat, even after selecting the "always approve all tools".

we were having this issue in our tools too.
and we solved it with

@tool(
        name="close_browser_session",
        description=(
            "Close a browser automation session. Detaches playwright-cli and closes the remote browser."
        ),
        ***approval_mode="never_require",***
    )

Can we do this in the skill provider tool too ?

👋 Hi @mohitpavan — thanks for the report!

The capability you're asking for already exists in the current version of agent-framework. SkillsProvider accepts disable_load_skill_approval=True, disable_read_skill_resource_approval=True, and disable_run_skill_script_approval=True constructor parameters that set each tool's approval_mode to "never_require" — exactly equivalent to the workaround you described for your own tools. Alternatively, you can use ToolApprovalMiddleware(auto_approval_rules=[SkillsProvider.all_tools_auto_approval_rule]) to auto-approve all skill tools without disabling the approval system entirely. These flags were added in PR #6867 (commit bcd2800, 2026-07-06); if you're on an older version, upgrading should give you access. See the sample at python/samples/02-agents/skills/skills_auto_approval/ for the full pattern.

If you still believe there is a framework issue here, please reply with the exact import/class or method you are using, the version, and a minimal snippet that shows the failure. 🙏
