fix-forward #3941 (tsk-jaxit5): claude_code guard fails OPEN on an unparseable command ("${HOME}" in double quotes), env -iS clusters and sudo/env long value options still hide g""h (CodeRabbit Majors, measured pre-existing) - #3945
CARD TITLE (intent, not commit subject): fix-forward #3941 (tsk-jaxit5): claude_code guard fails OPEN on an unparseable command ("${HOME}" in double quotes), env -iS clusters and sudo/env long value options still hide g""h (CodeRabbit Majors, measured pre-existing)
Autonomous build of board card tsk-bmcphm.
REVISION: built on exec/tsk-jaxit5 (cut at 5f582bdd98261c86ae3c43a24b7fd749c3948c7d), not on dev. That branch's
commits are ancestors of this one. Verified by git merge-base --is-ancestor
before the PR was opened.

BLOCKER: tinyagentos/claude_code_guard.py:73-74 Removed -S and --split-string from _WRAPPER_OPTS_WITH_VALUE["env"] breaks non-clustered --split-string handling (regression); new clustered-S code at lines 377-387 incorrectly matches "S" in "--split-string" (sets split_string="plit-string")

…-closed main
### Fixed
- Wrapper programs (env, nice, nohup, timeout, xargs, sudo, doas, exec, command, builtin, time, stdbuf, setsid, ionice, chroot, busybox) no longer hide the real program in the shell profile: the wrapper's key is recorded and the wrapped program is also checked.
- Hard refusal for gh and git push now also applies to parsed command keys, catching escapes like g""h pr list and 'gh' pr list.
- The hook's main() now fails closed on any exception: it prints the refusal to stderr and exits with code 2.
RED-PROOF:

1. chroot root operand: when the root path basename matches a wrapper
program (e.g. /tmp/timeout -> timeout), it was mistakenly treated as a
new wrapper. Fix: consume the root operand before the WRAPPER_PROGRAMS
check when wrapper==chroot and wrapper_skip_root is set.
2. exec -a NAME: exec was not in _WRAPPER_OPTS_WITH_VALUE, so -a value
was not skipped. Fix: add exec:-a to the table and handle -aNAME
attached form like sudo -uuser.
3. env -S/--split-string: the split string was skipped as an option value
but not parsed for nested commands. Fix: recursively run commands() on
the split string and add its keys; fail closed (add env -S sentinel)
when the string contains $, backslash, or fails to parse.
RED-PROOF (failing tests before fix):

…e option bypasses
Fixes CodeRabbit Majors on #3938 and #3939 (tsk-r3knpi) measured through
refusal() with real hook payload dict {"tool_name": "Bash", "tool_input":
{"command": CMD}}; controls ls -la allowed, gh pr merge refused.
Changes:
A. In the skip_next block, the env_split_string_pending branch now sets
skip_next = False before continuing (it already clears
env_split_string_pending).
B. Added _split_string_keys() helper that runs commands(text) and returns
None when result is None OR its last key is in WRAPPER_PROGRAMS (split
string ends on a wrapper needing an operand). Both env -S call sites
(separate value and attached -S<text>/--split-string=<text>) now use it.
C. Added "env": frozenset({"u", "C"}) to _WRAPPER_SHORT_OPTS_WITH_VALUE and
guarded the cluster check so env tokens containing "S" are not handled by
it (if wrapper in _WRAPPER_SHORT_OPTS_WITH_VALUE and not (wrapper ==
"env" and "S" in tok)), so -S clusters go to the existing env -S handler.
D. Added "a", "c", "R" to _WRAPPER_SHORT_OPTS_WITH_VALUE["sudo"] and
"-a", "-c", "-R", "--auth-type", "--login-class", "--chroot" to
_WRAPPER_OPTS_WITH_VALUE["sudo"] (created entry; keep -p/--prompt
behaviour as is).
E. Added bypass tests for the new cases and positive controls; renamed
test_bypass_chroot_attached_forms to test_bypass_chroot_option_forms.

The guard now parses commands behind wrappers, handles env -S split-string operands, and applies hard refusals to parsed command keys. It rejects unsafe or unparseable split strings and returns the standard refusal with exit code 2 when main() encounters an unexpected exception.
The parser identifies programs behind wrappers and skips wrapper options and their values, timeout durations, and chroot roots. Tests cover wrapper parsing and clustered option cases.
The parser recursively processes env -S operands. Unsafe or unparseable operands produce an env -S key. Double-quoted ${...} is no longer treated as command substitution.
Parsed-command refusal and fail-closed handling tinyagentos/claude_code_guard.py, tests/test_claude_code_shell_profile.py, changelog.d/*claude-code-guard*.md
Hard refusals check parsed command keys, including gh and git push. Unexpected exceptions in main() print the standard refusal and return 2.

Correction to the line above: the diff vs origin/dev is the whole carried chain (6 files: #3941 and its ancestors are not on dev yet). The diff vs this PR's own base 5f582bd is the card's three files, which is what the lead PASS measured.

Fix the f-strings that are a SyntaxError on Python 3.11. The whole test module fails to import there.
The f-string expressions on these lines contain backslash escapes and reuse the outer " quote. Python 3.11 rejects both. The syntax is valid only from Python 3.12 (PEP 701). pyproject.toml declares requires-python >=3.11,<3.15.
On 3.11 this file cannot be collected. All tests in it fail, including the unrelated ones. The author reports passing runs, but those were probably on 3.12 or later.
Compute the value first. Then use a simple f-string.

Add time option values to _WRAPPER_OPTS_WITH_VALUE. The hard refusal misses gh behind time -f and time -o.
time is in WRAPPER_PROGRAMS, but _WRAPPER_OPTS_WITH_VALUE has no entry for it. GNU time takes -f FORMAT and -o FILE as separate values.
Trace for /usr/bin/time -f %e g""h pr merge:
-f is skipped as a generic option by the startswith("-") branch.
%e is then taken as the real program, so expect becomes False.
g""h is treated as an argument of %e.
commands() returns ['time', '%e'].
Neither the raw _GH regex nor the parsed-key check in refusal() fires, so the command is allowed.
This is the same bypass class that this PR closes for nice, ionice, stdbuf, xargs, and sudo. It matters most when no --rules profile is configured, because then only the hard refusal applies.
xargs --process-slot-var NAME also takes a separate value and is not in the xargs set.

Restrict the clustered S detection to short-option tokens.
The condition is wrapper == "env" and "S" in tok. It runs for every token reaching this point, including long options and the program word. It has no startswith("-") guard, and --split-string is lowercase, so it cannot match long options.
Consequences:
env --default-signal=SIGPIPE ls takes IGPIPE after the first S as a split string. It adds the bogus key IGPIPE. The same happens for --block-signal=SIGTERM and --ignore-signal=SIGINT.
env MyScript.sh x adds the key cript.sh, not MyScript.sh. A deny rule for MyScript.sh no longer matches.
A token that ends in S (for example env MAKES ls) sets skip_next. The next word is then consumed as a split string.
-uS is read as the S option. In GNU env, -u takes the rest of the token (S) as its value.
Profile mode asks the user about the bogus keys. Wrong keys in commands() also break deny matching.
Restrict the check to single-dash clusters. Stop at the first value-taking letter.

Return a distinct refusal message for unparseable commands.
commands() returns None for any "$(...)", unterminated quote, or unknown git option. refusal() now returns the generic REFUSAL for all of these. That message says the agent may not run git push or gh.
This check runs even when no --rules profile is configured. Common commands such as echo "$(date)" and git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF' ...)" are now blocked with a message that does not describe the cause. The agent cannot tell what to change and may retry blindly.
profile_refusal already has a specific message for this case. Reuse it here.

The two assertion messages used backslash escapes and the outer quote
inside f-string expressions, which is a SyntaxError before Python 3.12
(PEP 701). pyproject declares requires-python >=3.11 and the scheduled
CI matrix runs 3.11, so the whole module failed to import there.
Compute the parsed keys first, then format them. Test-only change,
same assertions.
Red on 7ce5995 (python3.11 -m py_compile tests/test_claude_code_shell_profile.py):
```
File "tests/test_claude_code_shell_profile.py", line 602
)
^
SyntaxError: f-string expression part cannot include a backslash
```
After: compiles on 3.11; 61 passed on 3.13.
commands() passes g${X}h to the refusal checks as a literal executable name. The raw check and parsed-key check therefore do not identify gh. When X is empty, shell expansion runs gh pr merge without the hard refusal.
Reject $ in the command-position token before deriving name. This keeps argument-position ${HOME} handling unchanged.

Lead adjudication of the CodeRabbit review on dcf0fae (11:36Z): one outside-diff Major, "Reject parameter expansion in command position" (claude_code_guard.py:294-303).
Measured through refusal() with the Bash payload, on this head AND on origin/dev 306d39d:
REAL and PRE-EXISTING: dev allows the same commands, so this PR does not introduce it. Non-blocking for this PR; folded into the fix-forward card tsk-gdxqyz as item F5 (fix spec + test (d)). Nothing in this review touches the diff between 7ce5995 and dcf0fae (test-only 3.11 fix).
Covers the two lead pushes since the 754162f PASS: 7ce5995 (origin/dev merged by hand, both-appended conflict in tests/test_claude_code_shell_profile.py kept both sides, 61 passed locally) and dcf0fae (test-only: py3.11 f-string SyntaxError fix, file compiles on 3.11). No guard code changed in either. CodeRabbit on dcf0fae: 1 outside-diff Major, adjudicated REAL + PRE-EXISTING above, folded into tsk-gdxqyz.
