Am I the only one who trusts Goose (Block) less after reading their plugin permissions docs?

Hey folks, new here. I've been setting up a few agents on my home server (RPi 4) and was going through the plugin docs for Goose (Block).

I was really excited to use it, but the permissions list gave me pause. It asks for full read/write on my main project directory by default, which seems like a lot just for blocking content? I'm still learning, so maybe I'm missing something.

Is it normal for a blocking tool to need that level of access? Am I being too paranoid? 😅 Would love to hear from others who've dug into this more.
