gs:freeze

gs:freeze is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from thanh-abaii/gstack-windows-port. It costs 78 tokens per session (899 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of freeze, MIT.

A safety control that limits file edits to one directory for a session. Attempts to edit files elsewhere are blocked.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you want changes confined to a specific folder or need an editing boundary during risky work.
Why use it?
It prevents accidental changes to unrelated parts of a project while you debug or work on one module.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

gs:freeze scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Preamble (run first)

python "bin/gstack-boot.py" --skill freeze | iex

Safety Advisory: This skill includes safety checks that verify file edits are within the allowed scope boundary before applying, and verify file writes are within the allowed scope boundary before applying. When using this skill, always pause and verify before executing potentially destructive operations. If uncertain about a command's safety, ask the user for confirmation before proceeding.

/gs:freeze — Restrict Edits to a Directory

Lock file edits to a specific directory. Any Edit or Write operation targeting a file outside the allowed path will be blocked (not just warned).

New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force ~/.gstack/analytics
echo '{"skill":"freeze","ts":"'$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)'","repo":"'$(basename "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel | Out-Null)" | Out-Null ; echo "unknown")'"}'  >> ~/.gstack/analytics/skill-usage.jsonl | Out-Null ; true

Setup

Ask the user which directory to restrict edits to. Use AskUserQuestion:

  • Question: "Which directory should I restrict edits to? Files outside this path will be blocked from editing."
  • Text input (not multiple choice) — the user types a path.

Once the user provides a directory path:

  1. Resolve it to an absolute path:
FREEZE_DIR=$(cd "<user-provided-path>" | Out-Null ; pwd)
echo "$FREEZE_DIR"
  1. Ensure trailing slash and save to the freeze state file:
FREEZE_DIR="${FREEZE_DIR%/}/"
STATE_DIR="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA:-$HOME/.gstack}"
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force "$STATE_DIR"
echo "$FREEZE_DIR" > "$STATE_DIR/freeze-dir.txt"
echo "Freeze boundary set: $FREEZE_DIR"

Tell the user: "Edits are now restricted to <path>/. Any Edit or Write outside this directory will be blocked. To change the boundary, run /freeze again. To remove it, run /unfreeze or end the session."

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
