Full safety mode: destructive command warnings + directory-scoped edits. (gstack)
<!-- AUTO-GENERATED from SKILL.md.tmpl — do not edit directly --> <!-- Regenerate: bun run gen:skill-docs --> ## When to invoke this skill Combines /careful (warns before rm -rf, DROP TABLE, force-push, etc.) with /freeze (blocks edits outside a specified directory). Use for maximum safety when touching prod or debugging live systems. Use when asked to "guard mode", "full safety", "lock it down", or "maximum safety". # /guard — Full Safety Mode Activates both destructive command warnings and directory-scoped edit restrictions. This is the combination of `/careful` + `/freeze` in a single command. **Dependency note:** This skill references hook scripts from the sibling `/careful` and `/freeze` skill directories. Both must be installed (they are installed together by the gstack setup script). ```bash mkdir -p ~/.gstack/analytics echo '{"skill":"guard","ts":"'$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)'","repo":"'$(basename "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null)" 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown")'"}' >> ~/.gstack/analytics/skill-usage.jsonl 2>/dev/null || true ``` ## Setup Ask the user which directory to restrict edits to. Use AskUserQuestion: - Question: "Guard mode: which directory should edits be restricted to? Destructive command warnings are always on. Files outside the chosen path will be blocked from editing." - Text input (not multiple choice) — the user types a path. Once the user provides a directory path: 1. Resolve it to an absolute path: ```bash FREEZE_DIR=$(cd "<user-provided-path>" 2>/dev/null && pwd) echo "$FREEZE_DIR" ``` 2. Ensure trailing slash and save to the freeze state file: ```bash FREEZE_DIR="${FREEZE_DIR%/}/" eval "$(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-paths)" STATE_DIR="$GSTACK_STATE_ROOT" mkdir -p "$STATE_DIR" echo "$FREEZE_DIR" > "$STATE_DIR/freeze-dir.txt" echo "Freeze boundary set: $FREEZE_DIR" ``` Tell the user: - "**Guard mode active.** Two protections are now running:" - "1. **Destructive command warnings** — rm -rf, DROP TABLE, force-push, etc. will warn before executing (you can override)" - "2. **Edit boundary** — file edits restricted to `<path>/`. Edits outside this directory are blocked." - "To remove the edit boundary, run `/unfreeze`. To deactivate everything, end the session." ## What's protected See `/careful` for the full list of destructive command patterns and safe exceptions. See `/freeze` for how edit boundary enforcement works.
