Verified an agy audit of every bare rm call (the trash-routing C1 shadow) by hand rather than trusting its report. Confirmed correct: scrub.fish's custom_rm strategy and logs.fish's Ctrl-D delete both deliberately want trash for a real, user-facing deletion. Confirmed and fixed three cases where a function's own throwaway scratch file was going to the user's trash instead of being wiped: fc.fish's edited-command tmpfile, dng2avif.fish's intermediate PNM (inconsistent with its own failure-path cleanup two lines up, which already used -f), and _scrollback_prune_junk.fish's junk log files (its sibling _prune_terminal_logs.fish already documents this exact pitfall in its header). Also went further than the report and classified every bypasses-shadow(rm) caller found by grep that had never been audited at all: config-settings.fish and edit.fish (own scratch cleanup, no destructive data at stake) and key-crypt.fish (--remove deletes the user's real input file after encryption, genuinely destructive, already documented in its own header as 'not a secure wipe'). Corrected scrub.fish's tag, which was missing uses-shadow(rm) for its deliberate trash-routing branch alongside the bypass branch it already had tagged. Added a note to the schema doc: rm's flag-based fallback lives inside the shadow itself, so a bare rm -f/rm -rf call is not the caller bypassing anything -- only an explicit command rm/builtin rm earns the tag. This is why dng2avif.fish's fix needed no CLASSIFICATION change: it already used rm -f, which was never actually the bug -- the missing -f on line 122 was.

# Function CLASSIFICATION schema
|
|
|
|
This is the canonical definition of the `# CLASSIFICATION` function
|
|
doc-header label. It's referenced from code comments and commit messages —
|
|
link here, not to anything under `AGENTS/` (that tree is git-ignored local
|
|
agent state, not part of the repo).
|
|
|
|
See [Public function documentation header](../CONTRIBUTING.md#public-function-documentation-header)
|
|
in `CONTRIBUTING.md` for where `CLASSIFICATION` fits among the other header
|
|
labels, and [C1 — Command Shadows](manual/08-components-reference/01-c1-command-shadows.md)
|
|
for the full list of C1-shadowed commands this schema's shadow tags refer to.
|
|
|
|
## Format
|
|
|
|
Optional. Comma-separated tags from the closed set below, on the indented
|
|
body line directly under the label:
|
|
|
|
```fish
|
|
# CLASSIFICATION
|
|
# uses-shadow(ls), destructive
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Omit the label entirely when nothing applies — omission means "nothing to
|
|
flag," not "not yet audited," so don't add it speculatively, and don't add
|
|
it empty as a placeholder.
|
|
|
|
## Tags
|
|
|
|
- **`uses-shadow(name[,name...])`** — calls a C1-shadowed command (see the
|
|
C1 doc linked above) bare, deliberately wanting the overridden behavior
|
|
(e.g. `ls` wanting eza's icons for a human to read).
|
|
- **`bypasses-shadow(name[,name...])`** — calls `command <name>`,
|
|
`builtin <name>`, or (for `help` specifically) `__original_help $argv`,
|
|
deliberately forcing stock behavior because the shadow's override would
|
|
break this function's logic: timestamps leaking into a parsed capture,
|
|
`-i` prompting on a path meant to run unattended, structural output
|
|
changes breaking a `string`/`sed` parse, etc.
|
|
- **`destructive`** — can irreversibly delete or overwrite data: `rm -f`,
|
|
`rm -rf`, truncating or force-overwriting a file, `git push --force`.
|
|
Routine cleanup of the function's own `$tmpdir`/`$_tmpdir`/`mktemp`
|
|
output (or other output it just created in this same call) is expected
|
|
behavior, not a hazard — don't tag it.
|
|
- **`network`** — makes an outbound network call: `curl`, `wget`, `ssh`,
|
|
`git fetch`/`pull`/`push`/`clone`, `paru`/`yay` (package-manager network
|
|
ops), talking to an API, etc.
|
|
- **`blocking-prompt`** — can block waiting on interactive confirmation
|
|
with no non-interactive escape hatch: a shadow's forced `-i`, fish's
|
|
`read` (genuinely waiting on a terminal — not a `string split | read`
|
|
or `while read` consuming a pipe, which never blocks), a `confirm`-style
|
|
prompt with no `--yes`/`--force`/`--silent` bypass. Don't tag a function
|
|
that's only ever meant to be run interactively at a prompt (a keybinding
|
|
handler, an fzf-driven picker) — the hazard this tag exists for is a
|
|
script or another function calling it unexpectedly, not a human running
|
|
it themselves.
|
|
|
|
## Placement
|
|
|
|
Directly under `# DEPENDENCIES` if the header has one; otherwise directly
|
|
under `# COMPONENT`; otherwise directly under `# CATEGORY`; otherwise as
|
|
the first label in the header block (this is the common case for internal
|
|
`_`-prefixed helpers, which usually carry none of the three).
|
|
|
|
## Judgment calls
|
|
|
|
`uses-shadow` vs `bypasses-shadow` is the easiest place to get subtly
|
|
wrong — verify against the actual code, not just whether the name appears
|
|
in the file. A function that only calls a *helper* which itself interacts
|
|
with a shadow does not get the tag; the tag belongs on the helper. When
|
|
generating these tags in bulk (e.g. delegating the sweep to another
|
|
model), review every result against the source before trusting it — this
|
|
schema's own rollout caught several false positives this way: a piped
|
|
`read` misread as an interactive prompt, a documented `--yes` flag missed
|
|
as an escape hatch, and cleanup of a function's own temp output flagged
|
|
as `destructive` despite the explicit exclusion above.
|
|
|
|
`rm` specifically has its own internal flag check (any flag other than
|
|
`-r`/`-R`/`--recursive` falls back to `command rm` *inside the shadow
|
|
itself*, before it ever touches trash) — a caller writing plain `rm -f`
|
|
or `rm -rf` is not bypassing anything itself, the shadow is. Only tag
|
|
`bypasses-shadow(rm)` when the caller explicitly writes `command rm` or
|
|
`builtin rm`; a bare `rm -f`/`rm -rf` call gets no shadow tag at all.
