• Zero-Leak Guarantee: Ensures file content is never displayed until you confirm.
• Native Confirmation: Triggers a “Reveal?” prompt each time you open a restricted file.
• Configurable: Easily manage protected file patterns in settings.
• Minimalist Design: Clean and theme-aware user interface that matches VS Code.
