/**
 * Session #49 — command-template shell-state shape tests.
 *
 * Dogfooding the `plan` + `implement` chunk surfaced one root defect with
 * several arms: **command templates assume shell state survives between
 * fenced blocks.** It does not. Every ```bash fence is executed as its own
 * Bash tool call, in its own process:
 *
 *   - A variable assigned in block N is empty in block N+1.
 *   - `$$` (the PID) differs between calls, so a `/tmp/foo-$$.json` path
 *     created in one block can never be reconstructed in a later one.
 *   - The Read tool expands neither shell variables nor `$$` nor globs; it
 *     takes one literal path.
 *
 * Measured arms at the time of writing (all fixed by the accompanying commit):
 *   - `$RAW_FLAG` referenced inside a (non-bash) agent-prompt fence in
 *     analyze.md, plan.md, implement.md — the agent received the literal
 *     string `$RAW_FLAG`, confirmed at runtime by the planner-agent itself.
 *   - `$TMPFILE` referenced across blocks in manifest.md, tokens.md,
 *     whats-active.md, plugin-health.md.
 *   - `$GLOBAL_FLAG` across blocks in fix.md.
 *   - `$TODAY` across blocks in campaign.md (6 sites).
 *   - `$$` temp paths referenced outside their creating fence in fix.md.
 *   - plan.md asked the Read tool to expand
 *     `~/.claude/config-audit/sessions/*_/state.yaml`.
 *
 * The hardened pattern already present in drift.md is the target shape: a
 * fixed literal temp path, repeated literally in every block that needs it.
