name: phx-freeze description: Apply an advisory scope in this session. Use for read-only or directory-scoped work; no enforcement hook is installed.

Freeze — advisory edit scope

Apply a current-session instruction that limits which files this agent may edit. This generated runtime does not install an enforcement hook, so the scope is advisory rather than a technical lock. Never claim that edits are blocked by the runtime.

Usage

$elixir-phoenix:phx-freeze
$elixir-phoenix:phx-freeze lib/app_web priv/repo
$elixir-phoenix:phx-freeze status
$elixir-phoenix:phx-freeze off

Treat the text after the skill invocation as follows:

Invocation	Current-session behavior
No arguments	Do not edit files; investigation and reporting remain read-only.
Path prefixes	Edit only files under the listed project-relative prefixes.
status	Report the advisory scope currently established in this conversation.
off	Clear the advisory scope for subsequent work.

Do not create .claude/.freeze. That sentinel belongs to the canonical Claude Code plugin and could affect a later Claude Code session even though this runtime cannot enforce or clear it reliably.

Iron Laws

1. Never describe this scope as enforced — it is a binding instruction for the current agent, not a runtime or security boundary.
2. Never create or modify .claude/.freeze in a generated runtime — no matching enforcement component is installed here.
3. Honor the active scope until the user clears it or the focused task ends — ask before editing outside listed prefixes.
4. Keep paths project-relative — lib/foo includes that directory and its descendants, not a sibling such as lib/foobar.
