What issue are you seeing?
On Windows, automatic approval review repeatedly rejects a non-force Git push even after I explicitly approve it directly in the task performing the operation.
The agent asks for approval, but after I reply “承認するよ” (“I approve”), the operation is rejected again because direct user authorization is allegedly missing.
A status report to another Codex task is also rejected. This creates an approval loop with no actionable resolution.
The push was never executed, and the repository remained unchanged.
- Ask Codex to perform a non-force push of a specific local commit.
- Codex requests explicit approval.
- Reply directly in the same task: “承認するよ” (“I approve”).
- Automatic approval review rejects the operation again.
- Repeat approval; the same rejection occurs.
Expected: Explicit approval is recognized, or a concrete unmet requirement is explained.
Actual: Codex repeatedly requests approval that the review does not recognize.

Research direction
Start with the listed reproduction steps for a non-force Git push on Windows and use Feedback ID 01a08a3c-930f-7920-87f6-508492341d61 to inspect the automatic approval review and direct-task authorization flow. Done means an explicit approval is accepted once, or the review reports a concrete unmet requirement instead of repeating the approval request.
