Description
Loop 22 isolated implementation cannot start: the public-release scan excludes Git directory descendants but scans a linked-worktree Git pointer file, whose machine-local administrative path is not publishable project content. Root gate passes in the normal checkout while the identical worktree gate fails before implementation.
Acceptance Criteria
- #1 The public-release scan passes in a clean linked worktree with inherited identity checks enabled.
- #2 Refused content in ordinary working-tree files remains rejected and reachable-history checks are unchanged.
Definition of Done
- #1 just check passes locally
- #2 hosted Validate workflow passes on the completing commit
Implementation Plan
Reproduce on a linked worktree, exclude only Git metadata at all six working-tree search sites, verify pass and negative leak control, run required local gate and CodeRabbit, push and collect exact-SHA hosted validation.
Implementation Notes
Loop 22 root prerequisite attempt GCV-0097-impl-1: reproduced clean linked-worktree scan failure before edit, exit1. After six metadata exclusions, clean scan exit0 and ordinary working-tree refused-path negative control exit1. History git-grep paths unchanged. Required just check exit0, final Validation passed. CodeRabbit completed with 0 findings and scripts/public-release-scan.sh reviewed. Hosted evidence pending exact completing push.
Final Summary
Completing implementation SHA1e6577fd62a852cd027b9b401227d4cca51357e6; hosted Validate36776276185 completed success on that exact SHA, Validate reference and ci-success both success. Clean linked-worktree scan reproduced failure1 before fix, then passed0 after .git metadata-file exclusion at six working-tree search sites; ordinary refused-path negative control still failed1. Git history checks and actual working-tree content coverage unchanged. Local full just check exit0 ending Validation passed; bash syntax valid. CodeRabbit completed0 findings with scanner reviewed. Root prerequisite attempt1, review-repair0, infra0. This removes the infrastructure blocker for isolated implementation without changing publication rules.
