"""Dangerous command approval -- detection, prompting, and per-session state.

This module is the single source of truth for the dangerous command system:
- Pattern detection (DANGEROUS_PATTERNS, detect_dangerous_command)
- Per-session approval state (thread-safe, keyed by session_key)
- Approval prompting (CLI interactive + gateway async)
- Smart approval via auxiliary LLM (auto-approve low-risk commands)

# Commands so catastrophic they should NEVER run via the agent, regardless

# floor below yolo: opting into yolo is the user trusting the agent with
# their files and services, not trusting it to wipe the disk or power the
# box off.
#
# Hardline only applies to environments that can actually damage the host
# (local, ssh, container-host cron).  Containerized backends (docker,
# singularity, modal, daytona) already bypass the dangerous-command layer
# because nothing they do can touch the host, so we leave that behavior
# alone.
#
# The list is deliberately tiny — only things with no recovery path:
# filesystem destruction rooted at /, raw block device overwrites, kernel
# shutdown/reboot, and denial-of-service commands that take the host down.
# Recoverable-but-costly operations (git reset --hard, rm -rf /tmp/x,
# chmod -R 777, curl|sh) stay in DANGEROUS_PATTERNS where yolo can pass
# them through — that's what yolo is for.
