Summary

Profile-only launches opt out of the prompt name guard using the exact process
marker CLAUDE_NO_LANE=1. The exemption applies only to guard, before it reads
hook input or lane identity; shared hooks remain installed for lane sessions.

workBenches feature 017 supplies and clears the marker according to the actual
launch mode. This PR lands first so its merged commit can be vendored there.

Verification

  • The expanded module has 13 guard launch-mode cases covering missing infrastructure,
    invalid input, identity-probe sentinels, argument handling and unaffected commands.
  • A focused CI job runs canonical tests/run.sh -k 'guard_launch_mode or repo_hygiene'
    independently of the full lane-helper suite: 165 passed, 528 deselected.
  • Windows checks and macOS Bash 3.2 syntax parsing passed.
  • Source launcher/guard end-to-end smoke checks passed in both launch modes.
  • Bash syntax, diff checks and strict OpenSpec validation passed.

Governance: openspec/changes/skip-no-lane-guard/.
Implementation: specs/002-skip-no-lane-guard/.

This work is performed outside a lane under Brett Heap's 2026-09-30 instruction
making lane attribution conditional on actual lane membership.

Summary by Sourcery

Honor the profile-only launch marker so prompts skip lane-name enforcement while lane sessions retain their existing guard checks.

New Features:

  • Allow profile-only prompt submissions to bypass the lane name guard when launched with the exact CLAUDE_NO_LANE=1 marker.
  • Preserve normal lane enforcement for all other marker values and limit the exemption to the prompt guard.

Bug Fixes:

  • Prevent profile-only launches from being blocked by unavailable lane infrastructure or identity checks.

Enhancements:

  • Document the launch-mode contract, exemption scope, and shared-hook behavior for profile and lane sessions.

CI:

  • Add a focused CI job for guard launch-mode and repository hygiene checks.

Documentation:

  • Update repository and lane documentation to describe profile-only guard exemptions and safe-mode recovery.

Tests:

  • Add regression coverage for exact marker handling, skipped identity probes, invalid arguments, global flags, unsupported marker values, and unaffected lane commands.

Chores:

  • Add OpenSpec governance and implementation specifications for the profile-only lane guard behavior.

Reviewer's Guide

The PR makes CLAUDE_NO_LANE=1 an exact, process-scoped opt-out for the guard command, implemented as an early Bash exit while leaving shared hooks and all other lane enforcement intact. It documents the workBenches launch contract, adds OpenSpec/Speckit governance artifacts, and provides isolated regression coverage for marker handling, unreadable lane identity, side effects, and unaffected commands.

Hey - I've reviewed your changes and they look great!

Sourcery assessment

Needs a human reviewer. The exact CLAUDE_NO_LANE=1 environment value becomes a silent trust-boundary bypass for the prompt guard, allowing prompts to run without lane identity checks or any failure signal. Reverting prevents future bypasses, but prompts and any resulting actions that occurred while the marker was active cannot be undone.

P2 Badge Finish canonical verification before landing

The verification block says the recorded canonical results predate the expanded infrastructure-probe cases and that the current 13-case run is merely queued, so this commit explicitly leaves its verification task incomplete. Run tests/run.sh -k 'guard_launch_mode or repo_hygiene', record the actual result, and check T003 before landing so the new early-exit behavior and repository-guidance changes have a valid result from the required serialized runner.
