Security Notes

• Commands run with the same privileges as the Claude process (no auto-elevation)
• Destructive operations (registry, firewall, power, scheduled tasks, system restore, network shares) always require user confirmation
• Credentials and sensitive data are never stored or transmitted
• Screenshot data is processed in-memory and not persisted unless explicitly saved
