Add a guardrail system that runs alongside the Mission Runner pipeline
to catch obvious issues before they waste tokens or corrupt data.
Architecture (packages/shared-ai/src/guardrails/):
- types.ts: Guardrail, GuardrailResult, 4 phase interfaces
- builtin.ts: 4 built-in guardrails (always active):
- input-size-limit: blocks >100K chars of resolved input
- plan-step-limit: blocks plans with >25 steps (runaway planner)
- duplicate-destructive-tool: warns if undo_drink called 2x
- empty-required-params: blocks create_task without title
- runner.ts: runPrePlanGuardrails/runPostPlanGuardrails/runPreExecuteGuardrails
Wired into runner.ts at 3 checkpoints:
- Before deps.plan() — pre-plan check
- After plan received — post-plan check
- Before each stage() call — pre-execute check
Guardrails are synchronous, never hit the network, and produce
clear error messages when they block.
