1//! The ask pack: built-in `ask` rules for commands that lose data or reach
2//! past the machine. Database drops and resets, infrastructure and cluster
3//! teardown, cloud and container deletes, publishing a package, reading a
4//! secret, emptying or deleting a config file, mirroring a delete into the
5//! home directory, dropping a stash, and putting a world-writable directory
6//! ahead of `$PATH` each ask the person first, with a reason and a safer
7//! form. The pack is on by default. `LJOS_ASK_PACK=off` turns it
8//! off, and a list such as `LJOS_ASK_PACK=db,cloud` keeps only those
9//! classes. A seat rule in the pack is read first, so a person's own `deny`
10//! or `ask` on the same line wins.
