What changed

Spec 018 decisions, in .github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/spec.md:

2026-10-01 session:
- FR-012a: a guard that can't start refuses git and GitHub writes and only warns on everything else.
- FR-008: the gaps in security: branch-guard - six residual gaps in the GraphQL and REST branch-write checks #3691 are defects.
- FR-020: the auto-deletion deferral also applies to spec 009.
- FR-006: deleting main or the base branch is always refused.
- FR-009: direct writes to main are refused on every LightSpeed repo.
2026-10-02 session:
- Hotfixes use hotfix/{scope}-{title}, and hotfix/vX.Y.Z is refused.
- While auto-deletion is deferred, a maintainer may move an empty, merged claude/* branch with no open PR from DISCUSS to DELETE. It's then removed through spec 009's draft-PR approval (FR-020, FR-021, SC-002).

Design documents:

plan.md now records that chore: shared Claude Code cloud environment and branch-name guard #3524 merged, the cleanup deferral, how delivery is split between docs: claude-cloud - Record spec 018 clarifications and convergence fixes #3726, feat: branch-cleanup - Add report-only branch audit CLI #3358 and a follow-up guard PR, and the new CI suite.
research.md adds three decisions: R15 (when the guard can't start), R16 (promotion from DISCUSS) and R17 (hotfix names).
data-model.md, contracts/branch-cleanup.md and quickstart step 5 describe the deferral and the promotion route.
contracts/hooks.md and quickstart step 1 cover a guard that can't start. The enforcing behaviour is delivered in this PR (T052).

Tasks: tasks.md is updated in place, keeping every ID and tick. It has convergence phases 7–11 (T052–T065) and regenerated tasks T061–T063. T035 expects no auto-approval while the deferral holds. Re-counted on head 701acbf8fb: 65 tasks, 54 ticked, 11 unticked (T028–T030, T034, T035, T042, T043, T048, T053, T060, T063).

Guard hooks (.claude/hooks/**):

T052: run-guard.sh now handles a missing Node or guard script itself. With enforcement on it refuses git commit, push and branch operations and the GitHub tools with "Branch guard unavailable", and allows every other call with a warning, so a session without Node can still run ls. Tests cover both causes and compare the launcher's classification with the guard's own fault path over the same commands.
T054: a GraphQL mergeBranch into main or the base branch is refused. It read only branchName before, so base was never judged (security: branch-guard - six residual gaps in the GraphQL and REST branch-write checks #3691 gap 7). Literal, variable and whole-input spellings are covered. The REST git/refs creation (gap 6) was delivered in fix(guard): close GraphQL and REST branch-write gaps from #3691 #3745.
T049: the base-branch rule and its documentation exception now apply to lightspeedwp/.github only. On other LightSpeed repositories main is still refused (FR-009) and names are still checked, but a write to develop is not blocked. A write that names no repository is judged by this repository's rules.
T045: the session-start context lists /etc/claude-code/managed-settings.json among the protected files.
T055: security: branch-guard - six residual gaps in the GraphQL and REST branch-write checks #3691 gaps 1–5 were already delivered in fix(guard): close GraphQL and REST branch-write gaps from #3691 #3745, each with tests, so the task is recorded as done.
T058: the last "spec 016" reference in the guard is now "spec 018".

Other code and docs:

T050: a session-start timing test for SC-005.
T057: setup-node-install.test.js added to Claude Guard Tests.
T059: quickstart step 1 runs all four suites.
T056, T061, T062, T065: docs/CLAUDE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT.md now explains that claude/* auto-deletion is deferred, the DISCUSS promotion route (which arrives with feat: branch-cleanup - Add report-only branch audit CLI #3358), the guard-can't-start behaviour, and hotfix naming.
Docs contract test: one assertion follows the new wording of the cleanup contract.
CHANGELOG.md: two entries under Changed.

Notes

Sources/references: spec 018 (.github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/), chore: shared Claude Code cloud environment and branch-name guard #3524 (merged; introduced the cloud environment and guard), feat: branch-cleanup - Add report-only branch audit CLI #3358 (spec 009 branch cleanup), security: branch-guard - six residual gaps in the GraphQL and REST branch-write checks #3691 (guard gaps).
Tests: re-verified on head 701acbf8fb. scripts/__tests__ plus the docs contract suite tests/js/claude-cloud-environment-docs.test.js pass locally: 980 tests across 19 suites (the earlier figure of 974 predates the current head). shellcheck is clean on all three changed shell scripts (.claude/cloud/setup.sh, .claude/hooks/run-guard.sh, .claude/hooks/session-start.sh). semgrep scan --config p/security-audit --config p/secrets --metrics=off over .claude/hooks/ and .claude/cloud/ reports 0 findings across 61 rules on 6 files, run locally on 2026-10-04. ESLint reports 0 errors and one pre-existing no-unused-vars warning for remoteRepo at .claude/hooks/enforce-branch-name.mjs:193; that function is unchanged by this pull request and the warning is present on develop, so it is not introduced here. CI is green on this head: 26 checks success, 5 skipped, 3 neutral, none failing.
Security review: /security-review has not been run on the hook changes, because the WSL Claude login expired. It is still to do before merge. Semgrep is available on the Linux host (1.178.0) and reports 0 findings on the hook and cloud changes, but that does not substitute for /security-review.
Files changed for a Semgrep run: .claude/hooks/run-guard.sh, .claude/hooks/session-start.sh, .claude/cloud/setup.sh, .claude/hooks/enforce-branch-name.mjs, docs/CLAUDE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT.md, tests/js/claude-cloud-environment-docs.test.js, and the spec 018 documents under .github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/.
Waiting on feat: branch-cleanup - Add report-only branch audit CLI #3358 merging: T035 and T063, and ticking T053 and T060. feat: branch-cleanup - Add report-only branch audit CLI #3358 already removes the claude/* auto-approval (f4fcec75).
Owner actions, not doable from a pull request: T028 to T030 (the shared cloud environment and a fresh-session run), T034 (the daily auto-delete step, after feat: branch-cleanup - Add report-only branch audit CLI #3358), and T042, T043 and T048 (branch-protection settings).

Changelog

Changed

Cloud Spec Decisions Recorded — Spec 018 now records seven clarified rules, including that empty claude/* branches are not auto-deleted yet, and the guard tests also cover the setup script's Node install. (docs: claude-cloud - Record spec 018 clarifications and convergence fixes #3726)
Branch Guard Fault Handling — When the branch guard cannot start, only git and GitHub writes are blocked and other commands still run. Merges into protected branches are refused, and develop is protected on this repository only. (docs: claude-cloud - Record spec 018 clarifications and convergence fixes #3726)

Checklist (Global DoD / PR)

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes
- Branch protections now apply consistently to main across supported repositories and to the configured base branch where applicable. GitHub branch changes and GraphQL merges targeting protected branches are also checked.
- If the guard cannot start, specified write operations are blocked when enforcement is enabled; other calls can proceed with a warning.
Documentation
- Clarified that automatic cleanup of eligible claude/* branches is deferred until branch age can be reliably verified. Maintainers may route empty, merged branches with no open PR to draft-PR approval; branches with their own commits are not eligible.
- Updated release and hotfix branch naming guidance.
Tests
- Expanded coverage for guard startup checks, branch protections, and cleanup expectations.

Settle five decisions from the spec analysis: - a guard that cannot start is a guard fault (FR-012a): git writes refused, other commands warn - the seven gaps in #3691 are defects against FR-007/FR-008, not accepted limits - spec 009 auto-approval stays off until a branch-age signal exists (FR-020 deferral applies to both specs) - deleting main or the base branch is refused (FR-006) - direct writes to main are refused on every LightSpeed repository (FR-009 scope) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Rof5jDycmaTXWW8nFLP8af

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR updates branch protection and unavailable-guard handling. It documents deferred automatic cleanup and a maintainer approval route. It also aligns Spec 018 plans, tests, CI coverage, and the changelog.

Changes

Spec 018 reconciliation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Repository-aware branch protection `.claude/hooks/enforce-branch-name.mjs`, `scripts/__tests__/enforce-branch-name-hook.test.js`, `.github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/{spec.md,research.md,tasks.md}`, `docs/CLAUDE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT.md`	The hook protects `main` across LightSpeed repositories and applies configured-base protections to `.github`. It checks `mergeBranch` base targets. Tests cover cross-repository operations and GraphQL base forms.
Unavailable-guard call handling `.claude/hooks/run-guard.sh`, `.github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/{contracts/hooks.md,spec.md,research.md,quickstart.md,tasks.md}`, `scripts/__tests__/enforce-branch-name-hook.test.js`, `docs/CLAUDE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT.md`	When the guard cannot start, the launcher classifies calls. With enforcement enabled, it refuses classified writes and allows other calls with a warning. Tests compare launcher outcomes with guard fault-path outcomes.
Deferred cleanup and maintainer promotion `.github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/{contracts/branch-cleanup.md,data-model.md,plan.md,quickstart.md,research.md,spec.md,tasks.md}`, `docs/CLAUDE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT.md`, `tests/js/claude-cloud-environment-docs.test.js`	Automatic deletion remains deferred until a persistent branch-age signal exists. A maintainer may promote an empty, merged `claude/*` branch with no open PR to DELETE for draft-PR approval. Branches with their own commits are excluded.
Delivery records and contract validation `.github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/{plan.md,quickstart.md,tasks.md}`, `.github/workflows/claude-guard-tests.yml`, `scripts/__tests__/{session-start-hook.test.js,helpers/claude-hook-harness.js}`, `.claude/{cloud/setup.sh,hooks/session-start.sh}`, `CHANGELOG.md`	The plan and task list track delivered work and follow-ups. CI now runs the setup Node install test. SessionStart coverage checks that a current install skips `npm install`. Spec references and the guarded-file list are updated.

- Around line 91-124: Update is_write to apply WRITE_PATTERNS and creates_branch
only to the Bash call’s tool_input.command, not the full raw JSON; keep GitHub
tool handling unchanged. Add a regression case where command is “ls” and
description contains “git push origin main,” verifying it is not classified as a
write.

Review comments at @.github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/plan.md:
- Line 103: Update the VIII. Enforcement and compliance row to limit cleanup
claims to eligible branches: only empty, merged branches with no open PR may be
removed; retain branches with open PRs.

.claude/hooks/enforce-branch-name.mjs (1)
1554-1556: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Local and remote deletion checks still use the global PROTECTED set.

The REST ref paths now use isProtectedIn(apiRepo, ...). The Bash git branch -D and git push --delete paths still use PROTECTED.has(target). These paths have no repository argument, so they judge the current checkout. A checkout of another LightSpeed repository that has a develop branch is treated as if it were .github. This refuses a deletion that the new rule allows for other repositories. The behavior is stricter, not looser, so it is a consistency gap rather than a bypass.

Decide whether git commands should follow the repository-aware rule. If they should, resolve the remote identity with repositoryIdentity and call isProtectedIn. If they should not, document that the git path stays strict.

Clarify that the Node-missing rows are conditional.

Line 41 and Line 42 say "(after T052)". The PR objectives say T052 is implemented in this PR. Line 43 has no such marker. Remove the stale "(after T052)" qualifiers, or add the same qualifier to all three rows, so the table is consistent.

Review comments at
@.github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/contracts/branch-cleanup.md:
- Line 16: Update the generic cleanup default exclusion pattern to exclude
branches under claude/ alongside release/ and hotfix/, preventing them from
being marked for deletion outside the contract’s approval route.

Review comments at @.github/specs/018-claude-cloud-environment/plan.md:
- Line 201: Update the automatic-deletion condition in the plan so deletion is
enabled only when both branch-age and branch-origin signals exist; do not allow
the branch-age signal alone to enable deletion.

Review comments at @.github/workflows/claude-guard-tests.yml:
- Line 72: Update the path-filter check using grep -qE so an early match cannot
cause the input-producing printf to fail under pipefail and incorrectly set
run=false. Match the captured path list without a short-circuiting pipe, or
handle the producer’s SIGPIPE while preserving the relevant-path result.

Review comments at @tests/js/claude-cloud-environment-docs.test.js:
- Line 525: Update the documentation-matching regex in the test to require the
no-open-PR condition and an explicit statement that promotion is never
automatic; do not let the separate rule about branches with their own commits
satisfy the promotion safeguard assertion.
