SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

When working on code or documents, users often need to prevent accidental changes outside a trusted directory during debugging or exploration.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Restricts edits to a user-specified folder for the current session
  • Automatically detects and blocks edits outside the allowed path
  • Useful for debugging or safe experimentation in large projects

Quick Start

Tell me the directory to confine edits to, and I will lock future edits to that path.

FAQPage Schema
How do I restrict file edits to a single directory during a debugging session?

You can prevent unintended changes in a codebase by locking edits to a single directory, which scopes changes to one module. The lock enforces a runtime boundary that checks target file paths and blocks any operations attempting to modify files outside the allowed folder.

How does scoping changes to one module work to prevent unintended codebase edits?

Scoping changes to one module works by enforcing a runtime boundary that checks target file paths against a configured directory. It automatically blocks operations outside that boundary, preventing unintended edits across the broader codebase during exploration.

Can I lock edits to a specific folder for safe experimentation in large projects?

Yes, you can lock edits to a specific folder for safe experimentation in large projects. By confining future edits to that path, the lock prevents accidental modifications to files residing outside the trusted directory boundary.

What is the best way to contain accidental code edits when exploring a codebase?

The best way to contain accidental code edits when exploring a codebase is to lock edits to a safe directory. This restricts all modifications to the specified path for the current session, effectively preventing unintended changes elsewhere.

When should I use a directory lock to restrict file modifications?

You should use a directory lock to restrict file modifications during debugging sessions in codebases where the risk of accidental edits must be contained. It is specifically useful when you want to scope changes to one module safely.

Does locking a session to a directory block all operations outside the boundary?

Yes, locking a session to a directory blocks operations outside the boundary by checking the target file path against the configured directory. Any attempted edit outside that specific safe path is automatically detected and blocked.
