protect-agent-config

v0.3.2

Stops an agent editing its guardrails (MITRE ATLAS AML.T0081). Shell guard refuses writes to AGENTS.md, whole agent folders (.claude/, .cursor/, .codex/, .gemini/, .windsurf/, .agents/, .chock/, ...), MCP/hook client configs (.mcp.json, ...), hook files of Cline, Kiro, Augment, Windsurf and Devin (user and machine level too), ~/.claude.json, Claude Code plugin roots (.claude-plugin/, their hooks/), .git/{hooks,config}, policy implementations/: redirect, rm/mv/tee/sed -i, cp into, git checkout/restore, a write through a symlink to one; CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_DIRS, claude --plugin-dir (best effort). Folder names match without regard to case. An instruction file under docs/ asks a person instead. Coarse: also eval or sh -c of computed text, shells fed by pipe/variable, interpreter one-liners naming such a path. Reads, `chock sync` pass. Edit/Write: tool gate, the same set and verdicts.

block-destructive-commands

by chock-core

Best-effort guard against destructive commands, read as parsed commands (bash -c and cd chains included, echo excluded): rm -rf on absolute, home ($HOME/~) or root-adjacent paths (and PowerShell Remove-Item -Recurse); git push --force (not --force-with-lease), reset --hard, clean -f; kubectl delete; terraform destroy; aws s3 rm --recursive / rb --force; dropdb; helm uninstall/delete; docker volume rm/prune and system prune; gcloud ... delete; find -delete / -exec rm; shred; truncate; wipefs -a. git branch -D asks first. Verbs are matched position-aware, so a bucket or object NAMED like a verb is allowed, and a relative path in the working tree stays allowed. sudo, doas and pkexec are transparent. A pre-push hook refuses any non-fast-forward push -- force, +refspec or lease alike; a human escapes with git push --no-verify. Known bypasses: aliases, an unusual value-flag, interpreters and scripts. Friction, not a security boundary.

block-invisible-unicode

by chock-core

The mechanizable slice of prompt-injection defense, enforced at two points: at commit (the git hook, over staged changes) and at agent tool-use (over a tool call's arguments, as the agent writes) -- invisible and direction-override Unicode. Bidi controls make code read differently than it parses (Trojan Source, CVE-2021-42574); Unicode tag-block characters smuggle instructions that are invisible to a human reviewer but fully legible to the agent reading the file. Zero-width joiners and bidi marks (ZWJ/ZWNJ/LRM/RLM) are deliberately NOT matched -- they are legitimate in emoji sequences and in Persian, Arabic and Indic text -- so ordinary internationalised content passes; only the override/embed/isolate controls and the tag block, which have no honest use in a source tree, are blocked. Escape: 'pragma: allowlist invisible-unicode' on the same line.
