Generate Policy

Generate Sandbox Policy

Generate a Sigil security policy YAML file based on scan results. The policy controls filesystem, network, process, and credential access for sandboxed agent execution.

Process

1. Scan the target — Run sigil scan <path> to get findings
2. Analyze findings — Map each finding to a policy restriction:
   • Phase 1 (Install Hooks) → Filesystem restrictions (read-only paths)
   • Phase 3 (Network) → Network allowlist (only permit known-good endpoints)
   • Phase 4 (Credentials) → Credential policy (restrict env var access)
   • Phase 5 (Obfuscation) → Process restrictions (sandboxed user)
3. Generate policy YAML with the following structure:

version: "1.0"
name: "<project-name>-policy"
description: "Auto-generated from Sigil scan on <date>"

filesystem:
  read_only:
    - /usr
    - /lib
    - /etc
  read_write:
    - /tmp
  include_workdir: true

network:
  default_action: deny
  rules:
    - name: "<endpoint-name>"
      host: "<hostname>"
      port: 443
      access: read-only
      enforcement: enforce

process:
  run_as_user: sandbox
  run_as_group: sandbox
  deny_syscall_categories:
    - privilege_escalation

credentials:
  allowed_env:
    - TERM
    - PATH
    - HOME
  denied_env: []
  providers: []

4. Write the policy to sigil-policy.yaml in the project root
5. Explain the policy — For each section, explain what it restricts and why

Policy Severity Mapping

Rules

• Always explain WHY each restriction exists (reference the specific finding)
• For CLEAN scans, still generate a minimal security policy
• Include comments in the YAML explaining each rule
• Suggest the user review and customize before applying
