Scripts and CI

ixel -p runs one prompt with no window, like claude -p. Use it in scripts and CI.

ixel -p "add a test for the date parser"
git diff | ixel -p "review this change"

The prompt can also come from standard input.

Approvals

--permission-mode ask|auto|bypass|plan	ask refuses what needs a yes; plan is read-only
--allowedTools "shell(npm test:*),edit(src/**)"	Allow these without asking
--disallowedTools "…"	Refuse these

Rules in your settings and policy apply too.
