Since iss-2609251640462464 it refuses a shell that reads its script +from a stream (`printf '' | sh`, `bash <(curl …)`), under +`interpreter-reads-stream`, because the stream is text the guard read as data. That +refusal's successor tells the agent: "to run a script, save it and run it as a +file after reading it" (`internal/core/guard/payload.go:1970-1971`). The +over-long-command refusal says the same: "put the long text in a file and pass +the file" (`internal/core/guard/guard.go:752-753`). + +The same text can reach a shell through a file, and today the guard allows every +form of that, including the one its own successors recommend: + +| command | today | +| --- | --- | +| `printf '' > /tmp/s.sh; bash /tmp/s.sh` | allow | +| `source /tmp/s.sh`, `. /tmp/s.sh` | allow | +| `bash < /tmp/s.sh`, `bash -s < /tmp/s.sh` (while `cat /tmp/s.sh \| bash` blocks) | allow | +| `BASH_ENV=/tmp/e bash -c true` | allow | +| `bash --rcfile /tmp/e -i -c true` | allow | +| `SHELLOPTS=xtrace PS4='$()' bash -c true` | allow | +| `env 'BASH_FUNC_true%%=() { ; }' bash -c true` | allow | +| `ZDOTDIR=/tmp/zd zsh -c true`, `HOME=/tmp/h zsh -c true` | allow | +| `./deploy.sh` | allow | +| `eval "$(cat /tmp/s.sh)"`, `bash -c "$(%%`). The guard +judges each command substitution in such a prompt, and each function body, as a +payload segment [beyond the ruling's words]. + +**3. A direct run is classified, not read.** A path run directly (`./deploy.sh`, +`bin/tool`) is stat'ed and its first 8 KiB sniffed only to classify it. A +shell-family shebang, or no shebang and no NUL byte, makes it a shell script, +read as in decision 5. A non-shell shebang, a NUL in the sniff, or a size over +the cap makes it a program, allowed unread, as every program is (decision 8). +A direct run whose path the guard cannot resolve is a program +[direct runs are beyond the ruling's words]. + +**4. How the file is found.** `Check` gains the directory the command runs in: +the host workdir when it exists, else the session directory, set on the +`Registry` by `Load`/`LoadRepo` beside the worktree counter (the precedent at +`guard.go:168-176`). Both of the hook's registries resolve against that same +directory; each file is read once per hook call and its verdict folded into +both. `abcd guard check` resolves against the process working directory, and +`commands/guard.md` says so. Resolution follows the shell: + +- a `cd`/`pushd` earlier on the line is followed only when its target exists + at check time and the script run is chained after it with `&&`; otherwise the + operand is unresolved, never resolved as if the `cd` had failed + (`internal/core/guard/match.go:190-193`, `internal/core/guard/workdir.go:28-33`); +- `~` follows the shell's own rule: an `export HOME=` earlier on the line + changes it, a prefix assignment on the same simple command does not; +- a `source` operand with no slash is searched on `PATH`, then the working + directory, as bash does; +- symlinks in the path resolve to their target, which is read with + `fsutil.ReadGuarded` (`internal/fsutil/fsutil.go:62`: regular files only, + no symlinked leaf, capped). + +Tilde and path expansion come from one primitive in `internal/fsutil`. Two +local copies exist today (`internal/core/ahoy/harness_strays.go:422`, +`internal/core/lab/lab.go:366`); the implementing change moves them there +rather than adding a third. + +A shell or `source` operand that cannot be resolved to a path (a variable, a +command substitution, a glob) is class (2) of iss-2609281134544802, whose +verdict is a product ruling not yet made. This record does not rule it: the +implementing change allows it, as today, until that ruling sets the verdict. + +**5. Reading and judging a script.** Only Tier 1 verdicts propagate out of a +script: a registry entry matched at command position, and the synthetic +blockers (`interpreter-reads-stream`, an unread payload, the depth block). A +Tier 2 speculative hit inside a script does not propagate. A script is a +reviewed artefact rather than a line being typed, and the rationale for Tier 2 +(an unknown command may exec its arguments, adr-42) is weaker still for text the +agent did not write on this line. A propagated block names the script, the line +and the entry. + +The guard's verdicts on what it finds: + +| finding | verdict | +| --- | --- | +| a registry blocker at command position in the script | block | +| the script was written earlier on the same line (decision 6) | block | +| the script does not exist | allow, with a diagnostic naming it [differs from the pitch] | +| a startup file the line selects does not exist | allow, silently (the shell skips it) | +| exists but cannot be read (permission, not a regular file) | warn | +| a shell-pointed file that is binary (NUL in the first 8 KiB) | block: a shell will run bytes the guard cannot judge | +| a shell script over 256 KiB | warn: not read, size named [differs from the pitch] | +| the read budget is spent (decision 7) | warn, through the fail-loud path | + +**6. Written, then run, on one line.** A script is written-then-run when an +earlier segment on the line, payloads included, writes a path that resolves +(decision 4) to the script or to a directory above it: a redirect target, or the +target operand of a listed writer (`tee`, `cp`, `mv`, `install`, `dd of=`, +`curl -o`/`-O`, `wget -O`, `sed -i`, `patch`, `git checkout`/`restore`/`clone`, +`tar -x`, `unzip`). The file the guard reads at check time is not the file that +runs, so this blocks. A write target the guard cannot resolve warns. Reading the +script first (`cat s.sh && bash s.sh`) is not a write and stays allowed. The +writer list is an enumeration in the sense of adr-42 decision 5: incomplete by +design, extended over time, and named in decision 8. + +**7. Cost is bounded by depth and by an aggregate budget.** File reads happen +only from Tier 1 command positions, never from a speculative start +(`internal/core/guard/speculate.go:50`). A script that points a shell at a +script is read in turn, sharing one depth counter with the payload families' +`maxPayloadDepth` (2 today, `payload.go:28`); past it the guard blocks, as it +does for nested payloads. A file already on the current read stack is a cycle +and is skipped, not counted, since everything in it was already read. One +budget per `Check` caps the total at 16 files and 1 MiB read; past it the guard +warns. The implementing change extends the `workTally` cost guards +(`internal/core/guard/work.go`) to bytes read and adds the case to +`BenchmarkCheck`, keeping the bound adr-42 decision 3 makes load-bearing. + +**8. The check-to-run race is accepted, and the limits are named.** The file +can change between the guard's read and the shell's. Closing that needs the +host to run a frozen copy, which is host-specific and outside abcd (adr-25). +Under adr-42's threat model the race is accepted; decision 6 closes the one form +a single line can express. These stay unseen, and `commands/guard.md` and the +`SHELL` rules domain say so: + +- other interpreters' files: `python3 f.py`, `node f.js`, `ruby`, `perl`, + `make` (a Makefile), package-manager scripts (`npm run`); +- a program run directly or found through `PATH`, including a `PATH` + assignment on the line that changes which file a bare name finds; +- the files a shell loads implicitly from the account's real `HOME` + (`~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshenv`, `/etc/profile`). A `source` operand naming one + is read like any other; +- file text substituted into a command string (`eval "$(cat f)"`, + `bash -c "$('` so the guard reads +them. A script file is read and judged when it is run, so write it in one +command and run it in the next." The over-long-command successor +(`guard.go:752-753`) stops recommending a file without a size: "split the +command, or put the text in a script under 256 KiB and run it in a separate +command." Each new block names its own fix: for write-then-run, split the line; +for a binary file handed to a shell, run the program directly. + +**10. The sibling sweep and the warn-rate check.** The implementing change +sweeps every startup file, startup-expanded variable and option a shell-family +shell honours, against the installed bash (3.2 and 5.x), sh and zsh manuals: +at least everything in decisions 1 and 2. Each is pinned by a guard test watched +fail first, or recorded under decision 8 with its reason. It also adds a corpus +test that runs the repository's own `scripts/*.sh`, `.githooks/*` and +`hooks/*.sh` through decision 5, the way the `Makefile` runs them, with a pinned +warn ceiling in the `corpus_test.go` shape, so the warn-rate STOP of adr-42 +decision 8 is measured rather than assumed. + +## Alternatives Considered + +- **B: name script files a known limit, block only `BASH_ENV`/`ENV`.** Small and + certain, but the successors keep pointing at an unguarded route, and the other + startup spellings stay open one by one. Rejected by the product thinker on + 2026-10-09. +- **Refuse every script run the guard has not read** (block `bash f` outright). + Closes the class, but breaks the ordinary `bash ./build.sh` a cooperating agent + runs all day, which turns a mistake filter into an obstacle and invites the + registry-disable escape. Rejected. +- **Block a missing, oversized or binary file in every position** (the pitch's + wording). Simple to state, but measured as false blocks: a compiled binary run + by path (`bin/abcd-darwin-arm64` is 14 MB), `./configure` scripts over 256 KiB, + the conditional-source idiom `[ -f .env ] && source .env`, and `HOME=` + test lines whose startup files do not exist. Replaced by decisions 3 and 5. +- **Propagate every verdict from a script, Tier 2 included.** Measured: this + repository's own `scripts/check-issue-resolution.sh`, run as the `Makefile` + runs it, warns on Tier 2 speculation with no hazard in it. Rejected in favour + of decision 5. +- **Run a frozen copy** (the guard copies the script and the host runs the copy). + Closes the race, but needs the host to rewrite the command it runs, which no + host abcd supports does today and adr-25 keeps out of the core. Rejected for + now; decision 8 names the race instead. +- **Warn, never block, on the file forms.** Keeps the guard textual, but a warn + is advice the agent can step past, and it leaves the successor's route open at + Tier 2. Rejected. + +## Consequences + +- The verdict depends on file content as well as command text. `Check` gains a + working directory on the `Registry` and a filesystem read bounded by decision + 7, through `fsutil.ReadGuarded`, the primitive the registry load already uses. +- A few commands allowed today block: a script with a registry blocker in it, + write-then-run on one line, a binary handed to a shell. Each block names the + script, the line and the fix. +- Guard tests grow a fixture tree of scripts; every row of the Context table is + pinned by a test watched fail first, and the repository's own scripts are a + corpus with a warn ceiling. +- `commands/guard.md`, the `SHELL` rules domain (generated from the registry), + and both successor texts change in the same change. +- Tilde and path expansion gain one home in `internal/fsutil`. +- The class (2) ruling owed on iss-2609281134544802 now also decides how an + unresolved script operand is judged.

Siblings: the glued sweep, the literal-home backstop and DecodedViews (the harness-leak and privacy lint rules) read lineViews and inherit the composition. The pre-commit name guard already decodes a superset; its comment saying the scanner does not is corrected in both copies.

An extension header with no entry after it is consumed by the Next call that then reports io.EOF, and the walk broke on io.EOF before covering that call's window, so a long name placed last carried an unread member. And Next reads past an entry's own header for a sparse map (the extension blocks of an old GNU sparse entry, the map block of a PAX sparse 1.0 entry), parsing only part of it; the walk stopped at the entry's header. decodeTar now covers the window on io.EOF too, and the bytes past the entry's header must be zero beyond what the reader parsed, or the archive is not promoted. Siblings out of scope: header-block bytes the reader never parses (the tail of a V7 header, the slack of the four sparse entries inside an old GNU header) are still covered by the raw byte scan only.

A file a skip fragment alone matches is now Unscanned with its reason, so the launch refuses and names it; a file whose extension or name is on the reviewed skip lists takes the byte branch as before. A file left out on purpose is declared in the scanner config's new exclude_path_fragments field, each entry a fragment and a required reason. A matched file is reported excluded by choice with that reason (scan.excluded, scan.excluded_why, and a count in the gate row), is never read or counted as scanned, and does not refuse; a bundle the exclusions leave with no file scanned in full still trips the zero-coverage sentinel. A blank fragment or a missing reason is a config fault and the scanner fails closed. commands/launch.md documents both report fields and the config field. Siblings: skip_filenames match a whole name and skip_dirs is parsed but unused. A config-added skip extension still takes the byte branch.

Only abcd's bundled binary lists now count as reviewed. A file a repo-added entry alone matches is Unscanned with the entry named in its reason, exactly like a file a skip fragment alone matches, so the launch refuses and names it; a declared exclusion (exclude_path_fragments) still leaves it out by choice, and a bundled extension such as .png takes the byte branch as before. commands/launch.md says so, and notes that an extension-shaped fragment such as ".jar" is enough to exclude a kind of file, matching anywhere in the path. The plaintext ScannedBinary tier is now reachable only from the bundled lists, which carry no plaintext name; its test places the name itself.

The file lives in the home because a repository could otherwise switch its own filters on. The install guide documents it. gitutil now imports abcdhome, so abcdhome's two worktree-repair tests, which build their fixtures with gittest, move to the external test package to keep the import graph acyclic.

Each now passes --ignore-submodules=dirty (the flag, since a repository's submodule..ignore=none beats the diff.ignoreSubmodules config), and so does the agent-diff path list, whose one-revision range compares the working tree. A submodule moved to another commit still reads as a change; uncommitted content inside one no longer does, which the launch and launch ship help, the generated command reference and the install guide now state. gittest gains AddSubmodule for the fixtures.

Commands that read only config, refs or the index (flag-only rev-parse, config, check-ignore, symbolic-ref, ls-files, worktree list) are exempt, so root discovery still answers; a repository with no promisor remote is unaffected. The tag listing now goes through gitutil.Run and so takes the same check. The resolved record states the floor, and the README's requirements name it.

A partial clone without those settings keeps the index-only allowance. The lifeboat probe's ignore listing and lint's ignore pruning no longer treat that refusal as "git could not answer". Probe and Plan refuse with the floor named instead of widening the default scan to ignored files, and a walk that runs anyway narrows every path; IgnoredUnder returns the refusal, so Lint, DocumentsInRoots and PrunedInRoots report it rather than silently not pruning. Other git errors keep their handling. SwapGitVersionForTest lets a test outside gitutil put git on either side of the floor.
