Power level
Level 3: executes actions
Highest-risk evidenced power: shell command execution
Controls separated
Required before pilot — organization must implement
least-privilege permissions, isolated branch, protected branches, mandatory human review, sandbox, command allowlist, audit logs, separate test credentials
Vendor-native control evidenced
sandbox, branch isolation, security docs
Vendor-native control not evidenced
native sandbox, permission system, audit logs, admin console, SSO, data-retention settings
Pilot plan
Task class: Terminal and coding agent
Environment: non-production repository
Maximum access: shell command execution
Reviewer: engineering manager plus security reviewer
Success criteria: small reversible code changes pass tests and review without secret exposure
Stop conditions: unexpected command execution, broad repo access, failed audit trail, or reviewer cannot understand diffs
Prohibited: production deploys, unreviewed merges, secret access, large autonomous rewrites
Blocking issues and unknowns
Blockers: No blocking issue for the base record; run a personalized check for your environment.
Unknowns: Deployment and production-system access are not assumed by the record.
Limitations: Cloud execution changes data-boundary and repo-access review.
