SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Full safety mode combines destructive command warnings with directory-scoped edit restrictions to protect prod and debugging efforts.

Core Features & Use Cases

Destructive command warnings: detects dangerous commands such as rm -rf, DROP TABLE, force-push, and warns before executing.
Edit boundary enforcement: restricts edits to a user-defined directory, blocking changes outside the boundary.
Safe collaboration and workflow integration: enforces protections during sensitive operations across sessions.

Quick Start

Ask which directory to protect and then activate guard mode to enforce protections.

FAQPage Schema

How do I prevent destructive commands like rm -rf or DROP TABLE during live deployments?▼

To prevent destructive commands during live deployments, you need a safety mode that detects dangerous commands like rm -rf or DROP TABLE and warns before executing. This guard Skill enforces those destructive command warnings to protect production environments.

How can I restrict file edits to a specific directory during critical debugging operations?▼

You can restrict file edits to a specific directory by applying edit boundary enforcement. This guard Skill blocks any unauthorized edits outside your user-defined directory, ensuring debugging efforts remain scoped and safe.

What is directory-scoped edit restriction and when do I need it?▼

Directory-scoped edit restriction is a safety mechanism that blocks file changes outside a defined boundary. You need it during sensitive operations like live deployments to prevent accidental modifications to critical system files outside the guard boundary.

Do I need additional components to enforce edit boundaries and command warnings?▼

Yes, enforcing edit boundaries and command warnings requires integration with the careful and freeze components. These components work together with the guard Skill within the rkstack-plugin ecosystem to apply full safety boundaries during critical operations.

How do I activate safety mode to protect a specific production directory?▼

To activate safety mode, specify which directory to protect and then enable guard mode. This initiates both destructive command warnings and edit boundary enforcement to secure your production files safely.
