Current vs. Expected behavior
Current behavior:
In the current version of Zed, when selecting the Zed Agent in the Agent Panel, only "Write," "Ask," and "Minimal" modes are available. In "Write" mode, the agent requires manual user authorization whenever it encounters tasks exceeding its current permission scope; since this can happen multiple times within a single conversation, the user experience is poor, as the agent cannot simply take full control of the task.
Expected behavior:
Add a "Write (Full Access)" mode; by expanding the scope of permissions beyond the standard "Write" mode, it allows users to choose between the two options, thereby enhancing the user experience.
