freeze

To lock edits to a folder during debugging, establish a session-wide freeze boundary that restricts modifications. It enforces this by applying a PreToolUse hook to check file paths and deny any write operations outside the designated directory.

A pretool hook for restricting file modifications is a script that reads a stored directory path and blocks destructive edits. It intercepts write actions before execution, ensuring code changes remain confined within a defined boundary during review or debugging sessions.

Yes, you can prevent accidental code changes outside a designated directory by setting a configurable boundary. This blocks Edit and Write operations across your development session, guarding against unintended modifications to files beyond the allowed path.

To set a boundary for allowed edits using a bash scripting hook, run the command to define the target directory. This establishes the per-session restriction and deploys the hook that denies any file modifications attempted beyond that specific path.

Yes, the freeze boundary applies across the entire development session. Once established, it continuously guards code changes by blocking any Edit or Write operations targeting files outside the designated directory until the session concludes.

You should restrict modifications to a single directory when performing scoped changes or debugging specific modules. Enforcing a boundary prevents accidental modifications to other parts of the codebase while you focus your review within that isolated path.
