Watch out for

• It overwrites files without asking

  write_file replaces an existing file. Keep the allowed folder under git or backed up. github.com

• It will not start without a folder

  The source exits with a usage message if no allowed folder is given, so there is no accidental whole-disk access. github.com

• It has no delete tool

  The tool list has no way to delete a file, but write_file can empty one and move_file can move it out of sight. github.com
