 - Any command that touches a secret runs via **secrets-proxy `/shell` + `env_secrets`** (`vault://path#field` / `bitwarden://item`) so values are sourced at runtime, never in stdout/history/argv. The hook's existing Category-2/3 blocks (secret exposure, hardcoded secrets) stay as the backstop that FORCES commands onto the proxy path.

+## D4 (original) — Vault transit signature (was dormant until #145)
 - `CLAUDE_CMDS.md` gets the IDENTICAL mechanism as `sudo_sign.py`: Vault transit ed25519 key, sign file sha256, `verify_gate` on load via scoped AppRole, `..._VERIFY_ENFORCE` flag. Tampered policy → refuse to honor.
 - **Dependency:** live signing blocked on **#145** (OpenBao admin lockout; transit engine not enableable yet). SUDO.md itself runs unsigned (enforce=false) for this reason. `CLAUDE_CMDS.md` inherits the posture: **built to verify, ships `enforce=false`, flips to `true` when #145 lands** — one activation signs SUDO.md + proxy.md + CLAUDE_CMDS.md together. (proxy.md signature status UNVERIFIED — do not assert it is signed.)

+## CA-P1a — BUILT + LIVE (2026-07-14, task #148)
+Shipped in `/opt/appdata/docker/.claude/hooks/security-enforcement.py` **v2.0** as "Category 4",
+layered under the existing Category 1–3 blocks (which run FIRST and still win — a fast-path
+candidate that trips any security rule is BLOCKED, never allowed).
+
+- **allow** — every segment matches a tight enumerated read-only set (git read-verbs, ls/cat/grep/
+  find, docker ps/inspect/logs, systemctl status, journalctl, ip show, sysinfo). No prompt.
+- **deny** — catastrophic verbs (`rm -rf /` + system dirs, mkfs, dd→/dev, wipefs, fork bomb,
+  destructive partition ops). **New protection that did not exist before.** No override.
+- **prompt** — everything else falls through exactly as before. Purely additive.
+
+**Safety rests on two independent conditions, both required:** (1) transparent structure —
+**ANY** `$`, backtick, redirection, or backgrounding disqualifies; (2) every pipeline segment
+individually enumerated. One unknown segment disqualifies the whole command.
+
+**A real hole was caught by the tests, not by review:** `echo $VAULT_TOKEN` initially classified
+**allow** — `echo` is enumerated and `$VAR` is not `$(`, and Categories 1–3 don't catch it (not
+`docker exec env`, not a cat of a known secret path). It would have printed a live secret with no
+prompt. Fix: **any `$` disqualifies the fast-path** — the hook cannot know what a variable holds,
+so it cannot certify the command as a read. Locked in as a regression case. Lesson: enumerating
+safe *verbs* is not enough; the *structure* must also be transparent, and only an adversarial
+test suite finds the gap.
+
+**Verified:** 23/23 self-test cases; e2e over the real stdin/stdout protocol ALL PASS;
+`classify()` median **0.009ms** (budget 50ms); malformed stdin → exit 0; non-Bash ignored.
+**D5 fail mode:** in P1a the hook is NOT the only gate — the prompt still backstops everything
+not fast-pathed, so "closed" = *fall back to the prompt*, never auto-allow. Any exception →
+no decision → prompt (strictly no worse than pre-v2.0). Deny-everything fail-closed arrives with
+CA-P1, when the hook becomes the sole gate. Escape hatch: `CLAUDE_CA_ESCAPE_HATCH=1`.
+**D5 self-test** wired into `session-start.sh` (step 9) — reports at every SessionStart, non-fatal.
+**D8 training loop:** every decision (including `prompt`) appends to
+`/opt/appdata/docker/.claude/hooks/ca_decisions.jsonl` — best-effort, never breaks the hook.
+The `prompt` rows are the D2 promotion candidates (approved-every-time ⇒ widen the fast-path).
+
+## CA-P1b — WIDENED ON EVIDENCE (2026-07-14, hook v2.1, task #147)
+**The first production data made the case, not intuition.** After CA-P1a shipped, the user
+observed he was *still* approving nearly everything. `ca_decisions.jsonl` answered why: 29
+decisions, **22 prompts**, and **16 were "opaque structure"** — not mutations, not danger.
+
+**Root cause: `2>&1` contains a `>`.** v2.0's rule was "any redirection is a WRITE ⇒ disqualify."
+But `2>&1` is file-descriptor plumbing and `>/dev/null` is a discard — neither can write anything.
+The rule was rejecting the exact idiom ordinary diagnostic reads are written in
+(`ls -la 2>&1 | head`). The classifier wasn't being cautious; it was being wrong.
+
+Three changes, all still tier-0. **None widens WHAT may run** — they let the hook recognise reads
+it was already supposed to allow:
+1. **Safe redirects** (`_SAFE_REDIRECT_RE`) stripped before the redirect check: `2>&1`, `>&2`,
+   `2>/dev/null`, `&>/dev/null`. A redirect to any REAL path still disqualifies; `/dev/null` is
+   anchored so `>/dev/nullx` and `>/dev/null/../../etc/passwd` cannot ride the prefix (tested).
+2. **`cd`** enumerated — no filesystem effect, and every other segment is still checked
+   independently (`cd /etc && rm -rf x` still prompts on the `rm`).
+3. **`ssh <host> '<cmd>'`** — classify the INNER command under the identical rules, depth-limited
+   to one hop. A read is a read regardless of which host runs it. Strict shape only: no options
+   (`ssh -o ProxyCommand=… ` prompts), no unquoted form. This is what stopped server-01 work from
+   taxing the user on every single `ls`.
+
+**Security argument for the ssh hop, and its regression test:** Categories 1–3 scan the FULL raw
+text (including the inner) *before* the fast-path is consulted, so
+`ssh server-01 'cat …/agent-sudo/.env'` is **blocked** — `cat` is structurally a read verb, so the
+secret-path check is the ONLY thing standing between the ssh fast-path and an exfil channel. That
+case is a locked regression test; if it ever goes green-to-allow, the hop must be withdrawn.
+
+**Verified:** 42/42 self-test (up from 23); e2e ALL PASS, no regression; `classify()` median
+**0.011ms**. Live-proved: `ssh server-01 'systemctl is-active …'` → allow, no prompt.
+**Known edge (accepted):** `2>&1` immediately followed by a quote isn't stripped (lookahead wants
+whitespace/`;`/`|`/EOL), so quoted compounds stay opaque → prompt. Safe direction, low value to fix.
+
+**Tier-1 (reversible writes) NOT shipped — deliberately.** D2 authorises it, but the log says
+Bash-tier-1 is a *small* slice of real traffic: file edits go through the Write/Edit tools (not
+this hook), scratchpad writes are already pre-authorised, and `git add/commit` collides with
+`playbook_git_criteria_universal` (commits are checklist-triggered — auto-allowing removes the
+last friction on a rule enforced only by judgement). Correct next move per
+`feedback_evolution_by_default`: run v2.1, let `ca_decisions.jsonl` name the *next* real tax, and
+widen on evidence. The log found this one; it can find the next one.

 ## Verified live state (2026-07-14)
 - Hook: `/opt/appdata/docker/.claude/hooks/security-enforcement.py`, registered PreToolUse matcher=Bash timeout=5 in `~/.claude/settings.json`. Currently block-only (exit 0/2), no classifier, no permissions allowlist set.
 - Agent-Sudo daemon `/health`+`/exec`+`/allowlist`: server-01 8082 (LIVE, server_id=server-01), primary 8084 (server_id=primary; primary cutover swap still pending #146).
