That's Least Privilege.https://dayelostra.co/insights/least-privilege-is-a-list/https://dayelostra.co/insights/least-privilege-is-a-list/Least privilege at the OS layer is not a posture.

Govern It Like One.https://dayelostra.co/insights/cli-is-the-new-api/https://dayelostra.co/insights/cli-is-the-new-api/For an agent, the command line is a first-class invocation surface.
