Warn users that installing a custom launcher authorizes programs and scripts to run as Core’s user. Explain that configured controls no longer require allow_execute, while direct scripts and existing restrictions remain unchanged.

Next-only: documents unreleased Core behavior; stable docs stay unchanged.

Companion to ZaparooProject/zaparoo-core#1458.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Added a security warning explaining that custom launchers run with Zaparoo Core’s permissions and do not require allow_execute approval.
    • Clarified execute-command authorization for configured control scripts.
    • Documented that direct token and Run API commands still require allowlist approval, configured controls respect block_commands, and remotely fetched ZapScript cannot bypass execution restrictions.
