safety-guard

Guard against destructive operations with three modes: Careful intercepts dangerous commands (rm -rf, git push --force, DROP TABLE) for confirmation, Freeze locks writes to one directory, and Guard combines both via PreToolUse hooks.

# Safety Guard — Prevent Destructive Operations

## When to Use

- When working on production systems
- When agents are running autonomously (full-auto mode)
- When you want to restrict edits to a specific directory
- During sensitive operations (migrations, deploys, data changes)

## How It Works

Three modes of protection:

### Mode 1: Careful Mode

Intercepts destructive commands before execution and warns:

```
Watched patterns:
- rm -rf (especially /, ~, or project root)
- git push --force
- git reset --hard
- git checkout . (discard all changes)
- DROP TABLE / DROP DATABASE
- docker system prune
- kubectl delete
- chmod 777
- sudo rm
- npm publish (accidental publishes)
- Any command with --no-verify
```

When detected: shows what the command does, asks for confirmation, suggests safer alternative.

### Mode 2: Freeze Mode

Locks file edits to a specific directory tree:

```
/safety-guard freeze src/components/
```

Any Write/Edit outside `src/components/` is blocked with an explanation. Useful when you want an agent to focus on one area without touching unrelated code.

### Mode 3: Guard Mode (Careful + Freeze combined)
