I'm using Perplexity web UI (https://www.perplexity.ai/) with the GitHub Connector to automate code edits and commits. Every time I ask Perplexity to create/update files or make changes, an "Approve" dialog popup appears requiring manual approval.
The Problem:
- I already authorized the connector during initial setup
- But EVERY write operation requires another manual approval click
- Code operations take 5+ minutes
- If I step away from the screen, I miss the approval window and the operation times out
- This completely defeats the purpose of using an AI assistant for automation
- I'm on Linux, so the Perplexity desktop app isn't an option
What I need: A way to automatically approve these popups without manual intervention, so long-running operations can complete unattended.
Has anyone found a solution for this?
HTML structure of the approval popup (for reference):
<button type="button">
<div>...<div>Approve</div></div>
</button>
Environment: Linux, Chrome browser, Perplexity web UI (no desktop app available)
