Can adding an OpenAI account make waiting and errors easier to understand?
When adding an OpenAI account in FinchStory, the confusing part is often not entering the device code, but knowing whether FinchStory is still connecting, has already failed, or needs you to act again.
Yes. When adding an OpenAI account, the device-code connection flow now communicates loading, errors, and current state more clearly. FinchStory Loop approval settings are also mapped more accurately to the permissions you selected.
While waiting, you can see that the connection is still progressing
During the OpenAI account connection flow, loading and current state are shown more clearly instead of making you infer progress from whether the panel changes.
Errors look like errors
If the device-code connection fails, FinchStory now shows the failure more clearly, reducing cases where the UI appears to be waiting even though the flow has already stopped.
Loop approval settings now match actual behavior more closely
This release also corrects how FinchStory Loop approval policies are applied at runtime, so the permission choice in the UI is reflected more accurately during execution.
