FAQPage Schema
How do I unfreeze edit restrictions in my development session?

To unfreeze edit restrictions in a development session, the stored freeze state is removed from the session state file, restoring unrestricted file modifications across all directories without ending the current session.

Why are file modifications restricted to a single directory in my repository?

File modifications are restricted to a single directory because a temporary freeze boundary was applied to protect specific folders. A stored freeze marker limits edit access until explicitly cleared from the session state.

How do I restore repository-wide editing access after applying directory protections?

You restore repository-wide editing access by removing the freeze boundary marker from the session state file. This clears the stored edit restriction and reports the resulting unrestricted file permissions.

What do I need to remove a freeze state and unlock file permissions?

Removing a freeze state requires access to the session state file and shell commands. These tools check for the freeze boundary marker, delete it, and report the restored edit permissions.

Can I resume broad repository changes without ending my current development session?

Yes, you can resume broad repository changes without ending your current session. The unfreeze operation clears the temporary directory protections and restores normal editing scope while keeping the session active.
