Overview

A pure-shell safety net that intercepts rm, moves deleted files into its own trash area, and supports restore and undo without changing the familiar command name.

Why we discovered this

The design is deliberately a gateway around normal rm usage rather than a replacement workflow. It adds root protection and per-mount trash handling while intentionally giving up desktop-trash interoperability.
