+## CC-699 — claude 審查員的 guard check 受工作目錄與命令後綴影響而被拒 🔵 active
+
+**Problem**：2026-11-06 兩次 `--executor claude` 的 gate 都沒有判定。審查員必須先跑 `bash cli/pmctl guard check …` 才能寫結果，但無頭 claude（`--permission-prompts none`）只放行這一個窄前綴。實測重現三種偏離：加 `; echo rc=$?` 被拒；先 `cd` 讀 reviewer 定義，shell 目錄會保留，之後相對路徑的 `cli/pmctl` 回 exit 127；改用絕對路徑不符合放行規則而被拒。brief 已寫「不要加 cd 或後綴」，模型仍然違反，只靠提示不可靠。
+
+**修法**：Windows 同 checkout 時，brief 的 guard 命令改為絕對路徑 `bash '<checkout>/cli/pmctl' guard check …`，adapter 同步放行同一字串（路徑含單引號時維持相對形式）。實測：`cd` 之後該命令可通過，`; echo` 後綴仍被拒（維持由 brief 要求）。
+
+**未做**：放寬 `echo` 或其他後綴；讓 guard check 不由模型組字串（例如由 supervisor 代跑）；審查員用 `cd … && git diff`／`git -C` 讀 diff 被視為不受信任的設定而被拒，目前只能少讀內容。
