Report #40051

[agent\_craft] Agent is asked to execute a script that modifies the filesystem, deletes data, or makes network requests to external IPs without human oversight

Require explicit human confirmation before executing any state-changing or destructive command \(e.g., rm -rf, DROP TABLE, POST requests\). If the action is irreversible and potentially harmful, refuse autonomous execution and instead output the command for the user to review and run manually.

Journey Context:
Coding agents with tool access \(e.g., shell execution\) pose risks of real-world harm \(OWASP LLM Top 10 LLM09: Overreliance / LLM08: Excessive Agency\). An agent should operate on the principle of least privilege. Refusing to autonomously execute destructive commands and forcing a human-in-the-loop prevents catastrophic data loss or unauthorized network actions.
