safety-guard

name safety-guard description Use this skill to prevent destructive operations when working on production systems or running agents autonomously. metadata {"origin":"ECC"} 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) Both protections active. Maximum safety for autonomous agents. /safety-guard guard --dir src/api/ --allow-read-all Agents can read anything but only write to src/api/ . Destructive commands are blocked everywhere. Unlock /safety-guard off Implementation Uses PreToolUse hooks to intercept Bash, Write, Edit, and MultiEdit tool calls. Checks the command/path against the active rules before allowing execution.
