This could be avoided by aliasing rm to something else that stops you from deleting stupid things like your entire home directory / partition root.

What if the LLM detects this, and chooses to run /bin/rm directly? Or worse, writes a program that calls unlink.

  • I mean, you can always purge /bin/rm, but at this point since you're not satisfied, sounds like you want SELinux ;)

    If Claude is writing a program to go that low level I'd pay money to watch that.

    • It doesn't even need to go that low level, writing a program is just the worst case. There are ways to mass delete without `rm`. Example: `find` with the `-delete` flag.
