/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).

Preamble

Before executing this skill:

1. Load context from memory:

   memory_search(query: "{skill-relevant-query}", associative: true, limit: 5)
   memory_search(tag: "{skill-name}", limit: 3)
   

   Review returned memories for relevant past context, decisions, and patterns.

2. Check OMC state for active work:

   state_get_status()
   

   If conflicting active tasks exist, warn the user before proceeding.

3. Detect current branch (for git-related skills):

   git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD 2>/dev/null || echo "not-a-git-repo"
   

4. Check proactive mode:

   state_read("occ-proactive")
   

   If "false": do NOT proactively suggest other OpenClaw-CC skills during this session. Only run skills the user explicitly invokes.

5. Log skill activation:

   memory_daily_log(type: "note", entry: "Skill activated: /{skill-name}")
   

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=$(cd "<user-provided-path>" 2>/dev/null && pwd)
echo "$FREEZE_DIR"

2. Ensure trailing slash and save to the freeze state file:

FREEZE_DIR="${FREEZE_DIR%/}/"
STATE_DIR="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA:-${HOME}/.omc/state}"
mkdir -p "$STATE_DIR"
echo "$FREEZE_DIR" > "$STATE_DIR/freeze-dir.txt"
echo "Freeze boundary set: $FREEZE_DIR"

3. Log to memory:

memory_daily_log(type: "note", entry: "Freeze boundary set: {path}")

Tell the user: "Edits are now restricted to <path>/. Any Edit or Write outside this directory will be blocked. Run /unfreeze to remove the restriction."

How it works

The hook reads file_path from the Edit/Write tool input JSON, then checks whether the path starts with the freeze directory. If not, it returns permissionDecision: "deny" to block the operation.

Notes

• Trailing / prevents /src from matching /src-old
• Freeze applies to Edit and Write only — Read, Bash, Glob, Grep are unaffected
• This prevents accidental edits, not a security boundary
• To deactivate, run /unfreeze or end the conversation

Completion Status Protocol

Every skill must end with one of these status codes:

Code	Meaning	When to Use
DONE	All steps completed, evidence provided	Root cause found + fix verified, PR created, review finished
DONE_WITH_CONCERNS	Completed with warnings or caveats	Tests pass but coverage dropped, fix applied but can't fully verify
BLOCKED	Cannot proceed, requires user intervention	3 failed attempts, missing permissions, external dependency down
NEEDS_CONTEXT	Missing information to continue	Unclear requirements, need user clarification

Escalation Rules

1. 3-strike rule: After 3 failed attempts at any step, STOP and escalate to user. Do not continue guessing. Present what was tried and ask for direction.

2. Scope escalation: If fix/change touches 5+ files unexpectedly, pause and confirm with the user before proceeding.

3. Security uncertainty: If you are unsure about a security implication, STOP and escalate. Never guess on security.

4. Verification requirement: Never claim DONE without evidence.

   • "Should work" → RUN IT. Confidence is not evidence.
   • "Already tested earlier" → Code changed since. Test again.
   • "Trivial change" → Trivial changes break production.

Output Format
