Restrict file edits to a specific directory for the session. Blocks Edit and Write outside the allowed path. Use when debugging to prevent accidentally "fixing" unrelated code, or when you want to scope changes to one module. Use when asked to "freeze", "restrict edits", "only edit this folder", or "lock down edits". (gstack)
Ask the user for the directory to restrict edits to, then set the boundary and begin enforcing it.

Restricting file edits to a directory prevents accidental modifications to unrelated code. You freeze edits to a target folder using a PreToolUse hook, ensuring all changes remain confined to that path for safe debugging.
Locking down changes to one folder requires setting an edit boundary. You interactively specify the target directory, and a persistent state file enforces the restriction across actions, blocking writes outside that module.
A PreToolUse hook prevents accidental edits by checking file paths against a persisted boundary file before tool execution. If the path falls outside the allowed directory, the edit or write operation is blocked.
Yes, you can scope modifications to a single module by setting a session boundary. This confines all write operations to your specified directory, preventing drift and protecting the rest of the project from accidental changes.
Yes, the edit boundary persists across actions during a session. It saves the specified directory restriction in a persistent state file, ensuring safeguards remain active until your debugging or focused work is complete.
