Block Destructive Commands
Block Destructive Commands: what it does, its label on each agent, what it misses, and examples.
Catalog policy block-destructive-commands, version 0.3.1, labelled blocks on Claude Code.
What it does
Best-effort, on parsed commands (echo ignored); one verdict table shared with rtk-dangerous-actions-blocker. Blocks recursive deletes of root, home, abs paths or .git; mv/chmod/chown -R of system dirs; dd to devices, mkfs; lockouts; force, delete, mirror pushes; history rewrites; switch --discard; IaC destroy; cloud deletes; DB drops. Asks: rm -rf off a safe list, one named kubectl delete, bare lease, stash drop, -auto-approve, drain, prunes, API deletes. Dry runs pass. Pre-push: no non-ff.
On each agent
| Agent | Label | What it does there |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | Blocks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs |
| Cursor | Blocks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs. Where its description says it asks, it asks |
| Codex | Blocks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs. Where its description says it asks, it refuses, because this client cannot prompt before a shell command. If the hook errors, the action goes through (not witnessed; the vendor's row is only partly live-run) |
| GitHub Copilot | Blocks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs. Where its description says it asks, it asks in VS Code and refuses in Copilot CLI, because it cannot prompt there. If the hook errors, the action goes through (not witnessed; the vendor's row is only partly live-run) |
| Devin | Blocks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs. Where its description says it asks, it refuses, because this client cannot prompt before a shell command. If the hook errors, the action goes through (vendor docs only, not witnessed) |
