FAQPage Schema
How do I remove editing restrictions in my macOS workspace after freezing it?

To remove editing restrictions, you need to unfreeze the workspace by deleting the freeze-dir.txt marker file in the gstack state root using Bash execution. This clears the freeze boundary state and allows edits across all directories again.

What does the unfreeze command do to my gstack session control state?

The unfreeze command deletes the freeze state marker file from the gstack state root, which removes the edit restriction boundary. It keeps the freeze hooks registered but disables the restriction, allowing you to resume broader changes without restarting the session.

Can I widen allowed directories mid-session if an edit restriction blocks changes?

Yes, you can widen allowed directories mid-session by running the unfreeze skill. It requires Bash execution to delete the freeze-dir.txt marker in the gstack state root, confirming that edits are allowed everywhere once the boundary is removed.

Do I need Bash execution to unlock edits and remove the freeze boundary on macOS?

Yes, Bash execution is required to unlock edits because the process involves deleting the freeze-dir.txt marker file located in the gstack state root directory. This action confirms that editing permissions are restored across the workspace.

Why does the freeze hook remain registered after I unfreeze my workspace?

The unfreeze skill is session-safe, meaning it removes the restriction by deleting the state file but keeps the freeze hooks registered. This allows the restriction to be re-applied later without restarting the session or reconfiguring the automation hooks.
