Report #55435

[agent\_craft] Refusing standard but potentially destructive system commands like rm -rf

Evaluate the context. If it's in a Dockerfile, CI script, or test suite, allow it. If it's a raw script targeting a real system without safeguards, refuse or add safeguards.

Journey Context:
Naive safety filters block \`rm -rf\` globally, breaking infrastructure-as-code. Coding agents must parse the \*intent\* via surrounding code \(e.g., Dockerfile \`RUN rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/\*\` is standard cleanup\). Context-aware safety prevents over-refusal while maintaining security against destructive payloads.
