Summary

Mirrors #3229 for non-function tools (shell, apply_patch, custom). _collect_runs_by_approval invokes the user-supplied needs_approval_checker even when approval_status is already True or False. The checker may have side effects (telemetry, network) and a non-UserError exception is silently swallowed; a UserError would short-circuit an already-approved call.

The parallel function _select_function_tool_runs_for_resume was fixed in #3229 with the same reasoning.

Fix

Move the approval_status is True early-return above the checker invocation so explicit approve/reject decisions short-circuit cleanly. Rejected (is False) was already short-circuited.

Test plan

  • New test test_collect_runs_by_approval_skips_checker_when_status_resolved confirms the checker is not invoked for approved/rejected shell calls.
  • Test fails on main, passes with the fix.
  • Existing tests/test_hitl_error_scenarios.py (51 tests) and related HITL/approval suites pass.

…collect_runs_by_approval

Mirrors openai#3229 for non-function tools. When approval_status is already True
or False, _collect_runs_by_approval still invokes the user-supplied
needs_approval_checker before deciding. The checker may have side effects
(telemetry, network) and a non-UserError exception is swallowed; a UserError
would short-circuit even an already-approved call.

Move the approval_status is True check above the checker invocation so
explicit approve/reject decisions short-circuit cleanly.
