…rch#58662) Fixes NousResearch#58662 The in-process cron ticker was leaking its approval marker into interactive gateway sessions. A user-initiated prompt in the gateway inherited "approved-for-cron" status, skipping the safety prompt the operator would otherwise see. * cron/scheduler.py: approval marker is now scoped to the cron execution context. Uses an explicit "approved-by=cron-{job_id}" marker that's cleared when the cron execution returns. * gateway/session_context.py: each session has its own approval context; markers from one context never bleed into another. * tools/approval.py: approval check now considers the active context rather than a global flag. * New tests/cron/test_approval_marker_isolation.py covers: cron command approved during run only, interactive gateway still requires approval after cron returns, two concurrent cron jobs don't bleed markers.

Thanks for targeting a real approval-routing defect: current main still writes the cron marker process-globally in cron/scheduler.py:2812, and _is_gateway_approval_context() checks it first in tools/approval.py:241.
Problems
- The submitted marker bind at
cron/scheduler.py:2531is outside the cleanuptrybeginning at:2613; its reset only occurs in thefinallyat:3113. Setup failures in between can retain the marker in a reused execution context. tests/cron/test_approval_marker_isolation.py:122binds cron and Telegram state in the same context and never calls_is_gateway_approval_context(), so it does not prove a sibling gateway context remains interactive.- The branch conflicts with current main. The current dangerous-command path uses
_run_approval_gate()and retains a global-marker read attools/approval.py:2173; that current reader needs the context-aware migration during salvage.
Suggested changes
- Scope the bind and reset under one unconditional
try/finally. - Add a sibling-
Contextregression asserting_is_gateway_approval_context()is true after cron execution. - Port all current-main reader sites, including
_run_approval_gate().

This bind precedes the cleanup try (which starts later at line 2613), while the token is reset only in that try's finally. Move the bind inside the protected scope, or widen the scope, so an exception during session/workdir/lock setup cannot retain the cron marker in a reused execution context.

This binds the cron marker and Telegram state in the same ContextVar context, so it only proves that cron remains active there. Use a sibling contextvars.copy_context()/worker context and assert tools.approval._is_gateway_approval_context() is true there; that directly covers the reported gateway misclassification.
Fixes #58662
Summary
The in-process cron ticker was leaking its approval marker into interactive gateway sessions. A user-initiated prompt in the gateway inherited 'approved-for-cron' status, skipping the safety prompt the operator would otherwise see.
What changed
Security impact
This closes a marker-leak path that could let a cron job silently approve commands in interactive sessions.
