nano-coder 0.8.0

//! Permission checks run before every tool call.
//!
//! Order: user `deny` rules, then user `allow` rules, then the built-in
//! guards against destructive commands. Deny always wins; an allow rule
//! approves a shell command only when every command in it matches an allow
//! rule. When a sandbox is active, file-writing tools are also held to its
//! writable roots.
//!
//! These checks catch mistakes, not adversaries: a model can still write a
//! script and run it. The OS sandbox (`sandbox.rs`) and scoped credentials
//! are the security boundary.
