# Block Unpinned Agent Components

Block Unpinned Agent Components: what it does, its label on each agent, what it misses, and examples.

Catalog policy block-unpinned-agent-components, version 0.1.1, labelled blocks on Claude Code.

> Ask the user before running any command on this page: each one changes how their agent or repository behaves.

## What it does

Gate for the line-visible slice of ASI04: agent components fetched at a floating version. Blocks dist-tags (latest, next, canary, beta, rc, nightly) on npx/uvx/bunx, dlx, add/install and pipx run; FROM at latest or an untagged registry path; floating docker run/pull and docker:// refs; pip --pre; go install at latest; unversioned cargo installs; git+ installs and requirements, and github: dependencies, with no commit SHA. Per line: friction, not a boundary (limits in references).

## On each agent

| Agent | Label | What it does there |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Claude Code | Blocks | Blocks on an agent's file writes and at turn end |
| Cursor | Blocks | Blocks on an agent's file writes and at turn end |
| Codex | Blocks | Blocks on an agent's file writes and at turn end. If the hook errors, the action goes through (not witnessed; the vendor's row is only partly live-run) |
| GitHub Copilot | Blocks | Blocks at turn end only. It does not check a file write when it happens. If the hook errors, the action goes through (not witnessed; the vendor's row is only partly live-run) |
| Devin | Blocks | Blocks at turn end only. It does not check a file write when it happens. If the hook errors, the action goes through (vendor docs only, not witnessed) |
| Grok | Not graded | Not graded yet for Grok |
| goose | Not graded | Not graded yet for goose |
| Antigravity | Not graded | Not graded yet for Antigravity |
| OpenHands | Not graded | Not graded yet for OpenHands |
