I'm running a launch agent in a CI node. The agent is responsible for launching CI build/test jobs. The agent, being the responsible process, has been granted kTCCServiceScreenCapture permission. With this in place I can run /usr/sbin/screencapture during CI test jobs, archiving the visual state of the CI machine if a test fails, which makes it easier to diagnose why the test failed.

However with macOS 15 I get weekly/monthly notifications about the agent being able to record the screen.

The general advice for this is that apps should migrate to ScreenCaptureKit, but I'm using a built in tool in macOS, /usr/sbin/screencapture, so how am I supposed to deal with that?

I have yet to find where macOS stores the state that I've extended the screen capture period by another week/month. It doesn't seem to be stored in the TCC databases. If there was a place I could adjust this programatically (with SIP) disabled, it would help a lot.
