predicates.rs

1//! Structured predicates beyond regex.
2//!
3//! Each predicate operates on a single string param (typically a shell
4//! command line or path). They exist because the rules they enforce are
5//! genuinely hard to express as a single regex -- either they need to
6//! reason across a pipeline (`curl_pipe_sh`, `env_to_network`), or
7//! they need to normalise input before matching (`SensitivePath`).
8//!
9//! All predicates are designed to be *cheap* on the common case
10//! (millisecond-scale on a single command line) so they can run on
11//! every MCP `tools/call` without measurable overhead.
