Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk
This is an instruction-only shell safety checklist with no executable payload, though users should tighten its handling of very destructive commands for stricter environments.
Safe to install as a guardrail or checklist, not as a complete enforcement policy. Before relying on it, consider changing local rules to reject root or broad recursive deletion, block unsafe force pushes and --no-verify by default, and require explicit human review for sensitive file writes.

git stash drop / clear → "May permanently delete stashed content" git branch -D → "May force-delete a branch" git commit --amend → "May rewrite the last commit" git commit/push --no-verify → "May skip security hooks" ``` ### File System
