The `reflect` command provides a control channel over tcp/ip. This port is open to anybody able to access localhost.

Research direction

Start by locating the `reflect` command and the TCP/IP control channel it exposes. Determine the intended access restriction from the command's current behavior and project context; done should mean the control port is no longer open to every process or user able to access localhost, with relevant security behavior covered by tests if the project provides them.
