 ### 🧠 AI Negotiation Loop
 
 Node9 doesn't just "cut the wire." When a command is blocked, it injects a **Structured Negotiation Prompt** back into the AI's context window. This teaches the AI why it was stopped and instructs it to pivot to a safer alternative.

+### 🔓 Trusted Hosts
+
+Node9 blocks any pipe-chain that sends sensitive files to the network. If the destination is **your own internal API or logging service**, that friction is unnecessary. Trusted hosts let you declare known-safe destinations:
+
+```bash
+node9 trust add api.mycompany.com      # exact FQDN
+node9 trust add *.logs.mycompany.com   # wildcard — matches any subdomain at any depth (api.logs.mycompany.com, us.api.logs.mycompany.com, …) but NOT bare logs.mycompany.com
+node9 trust list                        # see the full list
+node9 trust remove api.mycompany.com   # remove a host
+```
+
+Once a host is trusted, pipe-chain decisions are downgraded for that destination only:
+
+| Pipe-chain risk                                  | Untrusted destination | Trusted destination |
+| :----------------------------------------------- | :-------------------- | :------------------ |
+| **critical** (obfuscated, e.g. `base64 \| curl`) | **block**             | review              |
+| **high** (direct, e.g. `cat .env \| curl`)       | review                | **allow**           |
+
+If **any** sink in the pipeline is untrusted, the original decision stands. Trusted hosts are stored in `~/.node9/trusted-hosts.json` and can only be modified via the CLI — AI tool calls cannot touch this list.
