New tool 'nah' offers deterministic safety guards for coding agents

Manuel Schipper has developed 'nah', a Python-based tool designed to provide deterministic safety guards for coding agents like Claude Code. Unlike prompt-based or allow/deny list approaches, nah maps tool calls to a taxonomy of intents, adding context such as project details and sensitive file locations. It then applies user-defined configurations and classifiers to either allow, block, or ask for clarification before an action is executed, aiming to prevent security risks like credential leaks or destructive commands. AI
