README
pi-yolo-seatbelt
Safety guard for bash commands in Pi agents. Blocks or prompts for dangerous commands like rm -rf /, git reset --hard, etc.
Permissions for each of the supported commands are fully configurable. Keep your session as loose or strict as desired.
Installation
pi install npm:@robhowley/pi-yolo-seatbelt
How It Works
yolo-seatbelt intercepts bash tool calls and evaluates commands against a set of safety rules:
- BLOCK - Immediate rejection (catastrophic patterns like
rm -rf /) - ASK - User confirmation (destructive patterns like
git push --force) - ALLOW - Command proceeds normally
