Can Line CLI break my computer?
Line is designed to be careful, and you stay in charge:
- By default, it asks before every file change and every command.
- It can't read files outside your project folder without asking.
- Secret files always ask, even in auto mode.
- File edits are checkpointed, so
/undoand/rewindcan take them back.
The main risk is approving a command without reading it. Commands that delete things (rm, del), change system settings or install software deserve a careful look. If you're not sure what a command does, decline it and ask Line to explain first.
Keep your project in git so you can always go back.
