  "risk_level": "High",
  "why": "The command uses `rm -rf` with `sudo` privileges, which is a destructive and irreversible operation. A simple typo in the path (such as an accidental space before the wildcard) could result in the deletion of the entire filesystem. Additionally, the `-f` (force) flag suppresses all prompts, meaning there is no safety net if the command is executed against the wrong directory.",
  "safer_process": "1. Use a deployment tool (e.g., Ansible, Capistrano, or a CI/CD runner) to handle file synchronization. 2. Instead of deleting, move the existing files to a timestamped backup directory (e.g., `mv /models/flight-recorder/app/* /models/flight-recorder/backup_$(date +%Y%m%d)`). 3. Use `rsync` with the `--delete` flag to synchronize the new application files while only removing files that are no longer present in the source. 4. Always verify the target directory contents using `ls` before executing a destructive command."
