RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs sandbox_git_status safely

sandbox_git_status Allowed

sandbox_git_status is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect EasyBits, apply this rule, and every sandbox_git_status call is checked against it from then on.
