OMP's always-ask approval prompt opened before the diff rendered -- fixed twice in six days.

Issue #7957, filed 2026-08-07 and titled "Large/Moderate proposed edits by agent do not show before permission is asked to proceed", reported that under always-ask the approval dialog opened before large edit previews finished rendering. The operator was asked to approve a diff they could not see. The fix makes the prompt wait on preview readiness.

Channel: tagged-release. Ancestry: Fix commit ee2f10764c0ac64460dacea3907b4ff7d05785d6, "fix(tui): waited for edit previews before approval", authored 2026-08-07T22:58:16Z. gh api repos/can1357/oh-my-pi/compare/v17.2.13...ee2f10764c0a -> status "behind", ahead_by 0; against v17.2.12 -> status "ahead", ahead_by 1 (not in the prior tag). GitHub release v17.2.13 published 2026-08-11T14:41:52Z and npm published 17.2.13 at 2026-08-11T14:45:07Z, so every install channel carries it.

Operator consequence: Upgrade past v17.2.13 if you rely on always-ask as your review gate. Until then the gate was real but the evidence behind it was not -- the prompt fired first and the diff arrived after, which on a large edit means the approval was blind. If you ran OMP in always-ask during this window, the approvals you gave on large edits are worth revisiting.
