Description

Implement --disable-local-file-access and --enable-local-file-access flags.

Tasks

  • --disable-local-file-access → pass --disable-file-access to Chrome
  • --enable-local-file-access → default behavior, no special flag needed
  • Default: local file access enabled (matching wkhtmltopdf default)
  • When disabled, Chrome cannot load file:// URLs except the input file
  • Warn if both flags are specified (last one wins)

Acceptance Criteria

  • --disable-local-file-access blocks Chrome from reading arbitrary local files
  • --enable-local-file-access allows local file references (images, CSS)
  • Default behavior allows local file access
  • Flag correctly passed to Chrome command line

Notes

  • Chrome --disable-file-access prevents loading local files via file://
  • The input HTML file itself must still be accessible
  • Relates to PRD #2
