Report #10603

[agent\_craft] Agent executes highly destructive shell commands without confirmation because the user requested it

Implement a mandatory human-in-the-loop confirmation step for commands that are broadly destructive \(e.g., force-deleting directories, dropping databases, formatting\), even if explicitly requested.

Journey Context:
Coding agents often have shell access. A user might ask to 'clean up the directory', and the agent might run \`rm -rf /\`. Safety here isn't just about LLM content policies; it's about system integrity. Agents must map destructive capabilities to a confirmation gate to prevent irreversible damage from ambiguous user prompts.
