description	Git, command, Kubernetes, data, workspace, and temporary files safety rules. Use when committing, pushing, using kubectl, handling multi-repo workspaces, or performing destructive operations.

Safety Rules

Git Safety

Absolute Rules (Cannot be broken)

• Do not commit unless explicitly requested
• Do not push unless explicitly requested
• Never commit to main/master branch unless explicitly requested
• Never run git reset --hard without explicit user approval

Core Safety Guidelines

• Do not change git stage without being asked
• Do not make commits without reviews unless explicitly requested
• Always create feature branches for changes
• Use /git-branch command for safe branch creation
• /commit command automatically creates feature branch when on main/master
• Verify branch before committing
• Never commit unstaged changes without explicit request
• Always validate conventional commit format
• Create backups before destructive operations
• Show what will be committed before execution
• Never push directly to main/master
• Always create pull requests for main branch changes
• Use /pr-create command for safe PR creation
• Verify remote branch exists before pushing

Command Safety

Shell Safety

• Prefer terminal commands over GUI operations when possible

Kubernetes Safety

• Never execute kubectl delete or kubectl apply
• Use /k8s-check for safe inspection
• Use /k8s-validate for manifest validation
• Use /k8s-diff for change preview

Git Destructive Operations

• Never run git reset --hard without explicit approval
• Use /git-reset for safe reset with backup
• Always create stash before destructive operations
• Provide recovery instructions

Data Safety

• Always create backups before destructive operations
• Use git stash for uncommitted changes
• Document recovery procedures
• Test backup restoration

Workspace Safety

Multi-Repository Handling

• Always check current working directory and understand repository boundaries
• Never assume single git repository when working in multi-repo workspace
• Always verify which repository operations are targeting before execution
• When working with staged changes, identify which specific repository they belong to
• Navigate to correct repository directory before running git operations
• Treat each repository as separate entity with its own git state

Error Prevention

• Always ask for clarification when workspace structure is unclear
• Confirm target repository before running git commands
• Use non-destructive commands first (git stash, git log) to understand situation

Temporary Files Safety

• When creating temporary files, use temporary directories (./tmp or system tmp)
• Automatically clean up temporary files after use
• Never commit temporary files to version control
