A node:test gate that scans every tracked file (the tree a release tag
publishes) for any way to start a Claude Code session or model run: the
CLI with a flag or prompt, `claude plugin eval`, spawn/exec of the binary,
the Agent SDK / claude-code package / GitHub Action, and the permission
bypass flags. Plugin management (install, validate, marketplace add)
starts no session and is not a hit.
The scanner is proven on a known-positive fixture that exercises every
pattern, and on look-alikes that must not hit. Historical mentions (class
c) stand only in EXEMPT, each with a reason and its exact hit count, so a
new hit in an exempt file fails as well. Two entries are the operator's
own eval run through Anthropic's tool; they are listed as their own class
so the decision stays visible.
Red on 57e620b: 54 hit lines in 14 files outside EXEMPT (a: 34 in 6 files,
b: 18 in 7 files, a descriptive comment: 2 in 1 file). EXEMPT holds 16
files and 46 hit lines, and matches exactly.
