Guardrails

• Discovery is read-only — no files are modified, no packages installed.
• Env var values in config files are always replaced with ***REDACTED*** before processing.
• Only structural data (server names, commands, URLs) is extracted.
• Confirm with user before scanning paths outside the home directory.
