Diagnose excessive Codex local SQLite diagnostic log writes with read-only evidence by default. Use when a user mentions logs_2.sqlite, logs_2.sqlite-wal, block_log_inserts, SSD/TBW wear, or explicitly asks to protect, clean up, verify, or restore Codex diagnostic logging.

# Codex Log Guard
## Overview
Diagnose Codex persistent diagnostic logging from local evidence, then give a concise conclusion and the safest next action. Do not make the user choose from a command menu.
## Operating Contract
Select one mode from the current user request:
- `diagnose_only` is the default for check, inspect, explain, or verify requests. It is read-only.
- `protect` requires an explicit request to stop or mitigate log writes. It may install and verify `block_log_inserts`, but it does not delete rows or vacuum files.
- `cleanup` requires an explicit current request to reclaim disk space or clean up logs. It first installs protection when needed, creates and verifies a timestamped backup, and only then deletes log rows and vacuums.
- `restore` requires an explicit request to resume diagnostic logging. It may drop only the known `block_log_inserts` trigger.
