+  [task 1003999](https://cloudbongos.com/builders#/task/1003999) had put that tool behind the same
+  guards; allowing first and guarding second was the wrong order. See the amendment below.
 - An instance that already has a `.claude/settings.json` keeps its own; only a fresh starter carries
   the new rules (the never-clobber rule of task 1003962).
 
+## Amendment — 2026-09-17: every rule has a `PowerShell(...)` twin ([task 1004014](https://cloudbongos.com/builders#/task/1004014))
+
+On a Windows laptop Claude Code's shell tool is `PowerShell`, and a `Bash(...)` rule says nothing
+about a PowerShell command, so those sessions still met the prompt on every routine read.
+
+**Decision.** One list of commands, carried by every shell tool the guards see
+(`.claude/hooks/shell-tools.js`): 31 commands × `Bash`, `PowerShell`. The twins are the *same*
+commands in the *same* forms — prefix where the Bash rule is a prefix, exact where it is exact,
+and still no `git diff | log | show`. **The six blessed writers are twinned too.** ADR 0104's
+argument is tool-independent (the server decides per request from live rank; the rule grants
+nothing), and twinning only the reads would let a Windows session look around freely and then
+dead-end on `ship.js` — the #1027 failure, moved to a different machine.
+
+**What made it safe to mirror rather than re-derive.** Documented by Claude Code: PowerShell rules
+have the same shape as Bash rules; `|`, `;`, `&&`, `||` split a command and *every* part must
+match, so `gh pr view 1 | Set-Content <path>` and `git status; Remove-Item …` still ask.
+
+Not documented — redirection, `$(…)`, `$env:` assignments — so the installed client (2.1.274) was
+read instead: a string probe of the binary, down to its PowerShell permission function. In order,
+it (1) applies deny rules; (2) collects a list of decisions, where each of these is an **ask**:
+a `$(…)` subexpression, an expandable string, splatting, `--%`, a .NET member call, a script block,
+a command that modifies `$env:`, a write into `.git/`, a `cd` compounded with `git`, and **any
+real file redirection** ("could write to arbitrary paths" — in-tree or not, `$null` and `2>&1`
+excepted); (3) returns the first deny, **else the first ask, and only then an allow**. Prefix
+allow-rules are consulted after all of that, one pipeline element at a time, and a statement that
+is not a command — an assignment — is never "allowed". So `$env:NODE_OPTIONS='…'; node
+scripts/gds/status.js`, `git status $(…)` and `gh pr view 1 > scripts/gds/status.js` all still ask.
+
+That is a reading of one version's minified code, not a contract — so **the repo does not lean on
+it.** The grader's objection to the first cut was exact: nothing here enforced that ordering, and
+nothing would turn red if a release changed it. `.claude/hooks/allow-rule-guard.js` now does, through
+the one part of the contract that IS documented: a PreToolUse hook may answer
+`permissionDecision: "ask"`, the most restrictive hook answer applies, and hooks "can tighten
+restrictions but not loosen them". On the PowerShell tool, a command that names anything this
+project pre-allows is put in front of a person **unless it is plain**: command names, bare-word
+arguments from a fixed alphabet, `$name` reads, literal strings, the separators `; | && ||`, and
+`2>&1` / `> $null`. It never blocks, fails open, and stays silent for commands nobody pre-allowed —
+or every `>` on a Windows laptop would prompt and the prompts this task removed would be back.
+`tests/allow_rule_guard.mjs` runs every PowerShell allow-rule through it, so a new rule cannot
+outrun the guard.
+
+**That hook is an allowlist of shape because the denylist version failed — this ADR's own lesson,
+relearned.** Its first cut listed dangerous constructs (`$(`, `>`, `{`, `env:` …). A security
+review of it found eleven commands that smuggle a write or an exec and still answered "no ask":
+a bare `( … )` runs a pipeline in argument mode; a quote inside a `<# comment #>` blinds a quote
+scanner; PowerShell reads smart quotes as quotes; `> $null\path` is a file, not a discard; a block
+comment can split the command's name. Every one is a disagreement between a pattern and
+PowerShell's tokenizer, which is exactly why this ADR refuses an `ask` pattern for `--output`
+("evaded by quoting"). Recognising the safe case and asking for everything else has no such list
+to keep up with: a `(`, `#`, backtick, `<`, real redirect, lone `&`, newline, smart quote or
+assignment is simply not in the grammar. The eleven are kept as test cases.
+
+Chained and piped commands pass the grammar on purpose — `git status; Remove-Item x` is "plain" —
+because the split on `|`, `;`, `&&`, `||` with every part needing its own match is the DOCUMENTED
+half, and the hook stands in only for the undocumented one.
+
+Today the hook is redundant with the client, which is the point: it pins the behaviour instead of
+trusting it. `allowCovers` in `tests/box_ship_permissions.mjs` still models only rule shape,
+separators and case folding, and says so. NOT traced in the client: how `git.exe` is canonicalized
+before matching — the hook folds case, quotes, backticks, comments, `\` and `.exe` itself, and is
+deliberately loose there, since that step only decides whether it has an opinion at all.
+
+**The restrictive list is twinned too.** `permissions.deny` carried `Bash(git stash:*)` alone — a
+hard stop on a Linux box and nothing on a Windows laptop. It now has its PowerShell twin, and the
+suite fails if any shell rule in `deny` or `ask` exists for one tool and not the other.
+
+**The one PowerShell-specific trap.** Its rules match **case-insensitively**, and git's flags do
+not: `-d` and `-D` are different commands. No rule here sits next to such a pair — `git branch`
+appears only as four exact read forms — and `tests/box_ship_permissions.mjs` now runs every check
+once per tool with the matcher's case folding modelled, plus a twin check: the tools must carry
+identical lists, and a rule for a tool outside `shell-tools.js` fails the suite.
+
+**Left alone.** A session that writes `node .\scripts\gds\status.js` (backslashes) matches no rule
+and asks — fail-safe, and the skills all spell it with forward slashes.
+
 ## Rejected
 
 - **`Bash(git:*)` or `Bash(gh:*)`.** One rule instead of thirteen, and it pre-allows `git push`,

+// file is the thing that turns red.
+//
+// The hook recognises PLAIN commands and asks for everything else — an allowlist of shape. Its
