Based on conversations with Legal, this is the latest user flow which includes permission checks:

That flowchart is missing branches here:

After Special:GUC it goes to a "double if" - what of the conditions not covered there?

Also the "if checkuser" - if checkuser where, as this is a Global tool.

Hi @Xaosflux Thank you for spotting that. I've uploaded an expanded flow which should help explain what happens if each permission check isn't met. I am going to ask the team about the CheckUser question and will update here once I have more clarity on that!

Thanks for this flow chart @KColeman-WMF !

This part will remain possible via the existing tools:

Ideally we don't want users to be hopping from tool to tool, so I think we should still incorporate it in the new tool. But as we're building it, we could perhaps do this part last.

Yes, I agree it makes sense to build this part last.
