host's finding on 288679af, and the directory restructure the owner asked for.
THE MARKERS WERE SUBSTRINGS OF THE PATHS THEY TESTED. `bin` is inside
…/.local/bin/claude and `cred` is inside …/.claude/.credentials.json, and the
match ran against a string that merged stdout and stderr — so anything writing
either path to stderr set the flag. Verified on the live server against an
account with neither file: one `set -x` made the trace of the test command
itself report installed and signed in. Not live, and it fails in the unsafe
direction, on the endpoint whose whole job is explaining a broken agent.
No marker spelling fixes it, because a trace echoes the literal along with the
path. The channel was the bug. Two characters on stdout read by position, with
parsing extracted as parseLoginProbe so it cannot see stderr at all, and stderr
kept separately because a failure has to stay diagnosable. Seven tests including
the exact trace host captured — true/true before, false/false now.
COMMS is renumbered: ten dated files in a day, each restating the others'
status, replaced by one file holding only what nobody has resolved. Odd numbers
mine, even numbers host's, alternation encoding push-then-wait, numbers ending
when the feature does. The reasoning that produced the deleted files is in the
commit history, which is where it belongs.
Carried forward and unowned: deprovisionOsAccount, the terminal replay bug, the
two docker handbacks, and the two verify items neither of us can execute.
