Security acknowledgment
On first use, the agent surfaces the full security policy and asks you to type I accept before it performs any actions. This one-time gate ensures you understand the permissions and risks involved, including shell and filesystem access, potential cloud costs, and credential exposure. Once accepted, the gate doesn't appear again for that project. For the full security model, see Anyscale agent skills security.
