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 which directory should be frozen, then set the boundary for the current session.

To restrict code edits to a specific folder during debugging, you can freeze a designated directory path to establish a session boundary. This blocks any Edit or Write operations outside that scoped module to prevent unintended changes.
Yes, you can lock down file modifications to a single module for your current session. By setting a designated directory path, the boundary persists and uses a PreToolUse hook to enforce the edit restriction rule.
A PreToolUse hook enforces edit boundaries by running a check script before any Edit or Write tool executes. This script verifies whether the target file falls inside the frozen directory and blocks the operation if it falls outside.
The best way to prevent accidentally editing unrelated code when debugging is to freeze edits to a specific directory. This constrains all modifications to a single module, ensuring changes stay scoped to the designated path.
Yes, the freeze edit boundary persists across different files during the entire session. Once you provide a directory path to set the boundary, the edit restriction remains active until the session ends or you manually reset it.
You should not use a scoped edit restriction when your task requires modifying files across multiple different directories or modules. The freeze creates a strict boundary that blocks all Write and Edit operations outside the single designated folder.
