"read/write only the worktree", but git requires .git dir writable for common commands to work in a worktree. And that's where .git/hooks live. So agent inside that profile can still write a pre-commit hook that runs on your machine whenever you commit outside the sandbox. Or am I missing something?

All git config and hooks are not writable inside the sandbox. This can be somewhat frustrating as you have to run git config commands outside, but the tradeoff is worth it imo. Nono allows for directory level permissioning, so the entire `.git/hooks` directory and `.git/config` / `.git/worktrees/*/config.worktree` are write blocked.

Worth calling out that this doesn't close all of these types of attacks, just the ones that are invisible (claude could very well write ./hack.sh and tie that in to your main.go, but at least it would be a diffable change, instead of invisible like a git hook)
