PR #13734 fixed the concurrent-tool-executor vector (ThreadPoolExecutor
workers didn't inherit the CLI's TLS approval callback). Two vectors
remained that could still land in the deadlocking input() fallback:
1. _spawn_background_review spawns a raw threading.Thread with no
approval callback installed, so any dangerous-command guard the
review agent trips falls back to input() -> deadlock against the
parent's prompt_toolkit TUI (same class as delegate_task subagents,
fixed in 023b1bff1 / #15491). Install a _bg_review_auto_deny
callback at thread start, clear on finally.
2. prompt_dangerous_approval's fallback unconditionally spawned a
daemon thread calling input() when approval_callback was None.
That fallback can never succeed under prompt_toolkit because the
user's Enter goes to pt's raw-mode stdin capture. Detect an active
pt Application via get_app_or_none() and fail closed (deny + log)
instead, so future threads that forget to install a callback
degrade gracefully instead of hanging 60s invisibly.
Regression guards:
- tests/run_agent/test_background_review.py verifies the review
worker thread sees a callable auto-deny callback mid-run and that
the slot is cleared in the finally block.
- tests/tools/test_approval.py TestFailClosedUnderPromptToolkit
verifies prompt_dangerous_approval returns 'deny' fast under a
mocked pt Application, and that a real callback still wins over
the guard.
