freeze

You can restrict edits to a specific directory by setting a freeze-dir in a state file, which a pretool hook reads to deny Edit and Write operations outside that boundary. This prevents accidental drift during debugging.

Directory-boundary enforcement prevents code drift by using a pretool hook to normalize and resolve file paths, denying any Edit or Write operations that target files outside the allowed directory boundary for the current session.

Yes, you can lock writes to a single module by enforcing a directory boundary for the current session. The system applies a pretool hook that blocks any Edit or Write operations targeting files outside that specific allowed path.

To set up a freeze boundary, ask for the directory to restrict edits to and run the setup. The system then enforces the directory boundary for the current session by checking all file paths against the allowed directory.

If an edit operation targets a file outside the allowed directory boundary, the pretool hook denies the operation. This prevents accidental changes and ensures modifications remain strictly within the chosen freeze directory.
