+After install the plugin runs in **observe mode**: every tool call is checked against Ory Permissions, but a deny is recorded as a `permission.observe_deny` audit span and the tool runs anyway. This lets you see what *would* be blocked before turning on hard blocking.

+2. **Bootstrap tuples for the built-in tools.** One idempotent command grants the current user `use` on every tool Codex ships with (shell, apply_patch, …):

+   ```
+
+   If a user identity is already cached at install time, the installer runs this for you automatically — re-run after adding tools, switching subjects, or changing the namespace.
+
+3. **Check coverage.** `permissions status` probes every tool in the harness's catalog and prints allowed / denied per tool:
 
    ```bash
-   ory create relationship \
-     --namespace AgentTools \
-     --object Bash \
-     --relation invoke \
-     --subject-id <your-user-subject-id>

    ```
 
-   Your subject id is printed at the start of every Codex session when `ORY_AGENT_DEBUG=true`.
+   Add tuples for any MCP server tools or custom commands by hand, or via the Ory MCP server from inside Codex (*"grant me use on the shell tool"*).
+
+4. **Promote to enforce.** Once the observe-mode logs look right, switch over:
+
+   ```bash
+   npx -y -p @ory/codex ory-codex permissions enforce
+   ```
 
-3. **See a denial.** Pick a tool you didn't grant (or remove the tuple) and ask Codex to use it. The hook blocks the call and Codex shows the denial reason. The decision is recorded as a `tool.block` trace span.
+   Denies now block the tool call; Codex shows the denial reason and the decision is recorded as a `tool.block` trace span with `blocked: true`. Switch back any time with `permissions observe`.

 Highlights:
 
 - `agent status` — show the current persisted DCR identity for the agent.
-- `configure --audit-only` — record decisions without blocking; useful for a phased rollout.
+- `permissions observe` / `permissions enforce` — switch between "log denies, allow through" (the install default) and "block denies." `permissions bootstrap` writes `use` tuples for the harness's built-in tools so the promotion path doesn't require hand-writing relationships.
+- `configure --audit-only` — kill switch that disables Ory entirely (no auth, no permission checks; only audit logging of tool invocations). For phased rollouts, prefer `permissions observe` over `--audit-only`.
 - `local seed` / `local env` — reseed the test user, or print env vars for pointing other tools at the local stack.
