Context Firewall

Use the public AIWG CLI to inspect context that can enter provider sessions. Keep scans read-only, never print source bodies as part of a threat finding, and treat baseline confirmation as an attestation that every planned record was reviewed.

Triggers

• "audit context" → run the read-only firewall scan
• "check context budget" → scan and explain budget attribution
• "review memory baseline" → produce the full baseline plan without writing
• "approve the context baseline" → plan first, then request explicit write authorization
• "doctor says the context baseline is missing" → route to the plan-first workflow

Process

1. Run aiwg context-firewall scan, adding repeatable --provider <name>, --strict, or --json only when the task needs them.
2. Report violations and warnings using paths, trust labels, review states, digests, sizes, and signal identifiers. Do not reproduce suspicious content.
3. If a baseline is requested, run aiwg context-firewall baseline --plan. Inspect every emitted record and surface any quarantined, stale, external, or changed entry before considering a write.
4. Do not infer approval from a request to scan, diagnose, plan, or repair. Baseline mutation requires explicit user authorization after the plan has been presented and reviewed.
5. Only after that authorization, run aiwg context-firewall baseline --write --confirm-reviewed. Use --output <project-relative-path> only when the user requested a custom destination.
6. Re-run aiwg context-firewall scan --strict and report the resulting status.

The writer fails closed for unsafe records, paths outside the project root, symlink escapes, and missing confirmation. Do not bypass those checks or invoke the underlying implementation script directly.

Output

Report:

• providers and total portable context budget;
• attribution by memory, rule, skill, agent, generated bridge, and project-local;
• trust and review findings by path, without source bodies;
• whether the operation was read-only or changed the reviewed baseline;
• the final strict scan status.
