"""Tests for the cross-Hermes-profile write guard in agent/file_safety.
The guard fires when a tool tries to write into another Hermes profile's
skills/plugins/cron/memories directory. It's a soft guard — defense in
depth, NOT a security boundary — but it prevents the agent from silently
corrupting a profile that belongs to a different session.
Reference: May 2026 incident — a hermes-security profile session
accidentally edited skills under both ~/.hermes/profiles/hermes-security/skills/
AND ~/.hermes/skills/ (the default profile's skills), realizing only
afterwards that the second path belonged to a different profile.
