Draft a new SQL safety rule for our coding guidelines document, CLAUDE.md, to enforce the use of parameterized queries in order to prevent SQL injection vulnerabilities. The rule should clearly outline the importance of using parameterized queries, provide examples of both unsafe and safe query practices, and include any relevant coding standards or best practices that developers should follow. Ensure the language is clear and concise, suitable for inclusion in a formal document, and provide the exact text that can be directly added to CLAUDE.md.

Create a CLAUDE.md rule that ensures all user inputs are properly sanitized to prevent cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. The rule should include specific guidelines for validating and encoding user inputs, detailing which characters or patterns to filter out. Additionally, provide examples of both safe and unsafe inputs to illustrate the importance of this sanitization process. Format the rule clearly so it can be easily implemented in a security policy document.

Please propose a CLAUDE.md rule that enforces path validation for file operations.
