feat: LLM command-approval classifier (auto mode)
Opt-in classifier that gates auto-approved tool calls, after Claude Code "auto mode". Off by default. - Pluggable ClassifierProvider; default uses the user's configured model via the AI SDK (single-pass <block>yes/no). - Hooks Permission.ask on the would-auto-approve path only: block -> deny-and-continue (ClassifierDeniedError, surfaces as a tool error, no halt); classifier error/escalation -> fail closed (human ask). Never overrides an explicit user deny/ask. - Reasoning-blind transcript (user text + assistant tool calls only): prompt-injection + anti-rationalization defense. - Safe-tool allowlist short-circuit; per-session denial counters (3-consecutive / 20-total escalation, reset each user turn). - New `classifier` config block (backend/model/endpoint/apiKey + allow/ soft_deny/environment policy slots, copy-then-edit). Tests cover reasoning-blindness, verdict parsing (fail-closed), allowlist, and policy slots. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
