Show HN: GitHub Action to check AI-written code changes no files, without review

Score: 5.5/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 5, Documentation: 6, Utility: 5)

A GitHub Action that detects unexpected filesystem changes made by AI-generated code by running the code in two Docker containers (one with and one without the 'act' phase) and comparing the resulting filesystem diffs against an allowlist. It treats code as a black box to verify that it doesn't delete or modify files unexpectedly, addressing a niche concern in AI-assisted development.

Target audience: developers using AI code generation, DevOps engineers, CI/CD maintainers
