# Safety and Content Isolation

agent-paste treats uploaded work as untrusted content and isolates serving from control-plane auth.

## What not to publish

Published Artifacts are meant to be shared. Anyone with a valid Artifact URL or Access Link can read the files until the Artifact or link expires, is revoked, or is deleted. Treat everything you publish as readable by others.

Do not upload secrets or other people's data. In particular:

- API keys, tokens, passwords, private keys, `.env` files, or any other credential.
- Personal or customer data you are not authorized to share or required to protect.
- Anything you would not be comfortable handing to whoever holds the link.

If you publish a secret by mistake, rotate it and delete or revoke the Artifact. Deletion can make content unreachable before every backup, cache, or queued cleanup job has finished.

## Origin boundary

Published files are served from `usercontent.agent-paste.sh`, not the dashboard or API origin. R2 stays private. Clients receive signed content URLs, never direct storage URLs.

## Response policy

The content origin verifies signed tokens, expiration, scope, denylist state, and requested path. Authorization failures return generic not found responses.

Untrusted content responses carry CSP, HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options, frame protections, Referrer-Policy, and permissions restrictions. SVG receives a stricter CSP.

## Ephemeral script policy

Unclaimed ephemeral HTML may contain scripts, but scripts do not execute. Static markup and CSS still render. After a human claims the Artifact into a regular Workspace, newly minted content URLs use the claimed Workspace execution policy.

## Revocation

agent-paste does not inspect or certify uploaded content as safe. Access Links can be revoked, and abusive content can be disabled without exposing private storage URLs.

## Secret handling

- API Key secrets are shown once and stored hashed server-side.
- Claim Tokens ride the URL hash and are stored hashed.
- Signed Access Link credentials live in URL fragments.
- Tokens, signed URLs, and API Key secret material must not be logged.
