[aw-daily] GAP-004: Document cache-memory working-tree sanitization in tools-reference.md #28

Closed

Description

Gap Details

Type: missing
File: skills/aw-author/references/tools-reference.md
Section: Built-in MCP Tools — Cache Memory (cache-memory:) section

Current Content

The cache-memory: section documents configuration options but does not mention the pre-agent working-tree sanitization behavior.

Expected Content

Add a behavior note after the configuration table:

**Pre-agent working-tree sanitization:** Before the agent job starts, `cache-memory` automatically scans the restored cache for planted executables and disallowed file types. Any neutralized files are reported in the workflow logs. This protects against cache-poisoning attacks where a malicious actor could insert executable files into the cache between runs.

    Fixed in #30 (merged to develop on 2026-04-16). The cache-memory working-tree sanitization behavior is now documented in skills/aw-author/references/tools-reference.md.

    Closing manually because GitHub's auto-close keywords only fire on merges to the default branch (main). The change will reach main on the next /aw-merge (develop → main).
