Warning: All memo execution — whether as AI instructions or shell commands — runs on your machine with your permissions. You are fully responsible for the content and consequences of every memo in the queue. Use only with memo groups you fully control and trust.

Shell execution is disabled by default. Pass --shell to enable it. Even then, destructive commands (rm, del, git reset --hard, dd, etc.) are automatically blocked and logged to @warning.
