Edit tool permission checks gained an additional safety category before falling back to normal rules

What

The logic that decides whether an Edit tool call is allowed now includes an additional early check, alongside the existing ones, that can short-circuit the decision before the normal rule-based permission logic runs.

Why

This adds another layer of safety screening to edit permission decisions, though the finding doesn't specify what condition the new check looks for.
