What

The Bash tool's instructions to the model now accept a list of tool overrides. When a caller supplies one, the usual "avoid running find, grep, cat and similar" warning is replaced by a message tailored to that list; with no override, a separate check decides whether the standard warning appears at all.

Details
  • The override only takes effect if the caller passes a non-empty list, and which callers do so is not settled in this build.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
