The +defensible claim is narrower and holds: the harness launcher and husky are DIFFERENT launchers. +Claude PreToolUse hooks are started as `$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/.claude/hooks/…`, so there the two roots +agree by construction and binding to `$repo_root` is consistency rather than repair.

What the hook proves is a snapshot; Gitea merges later; and since #778 it also verifies that `review-verdict/h10` is a required check, reading the repo's **full rule list** (never the by-name endpoint, which does no matching and knows nothing about precedence) — nothing can govern the base → deny, unreadable → ask, and a **glob rule that could govern it → ask**, because the hook deliberately does not reimplement Gitea's glob dialect. It also asks when two rule names fold equal, or when either name is non-ASCII, since Gitea's `EqualFold` is Unicode-aware and its rule precedence is not derivable here. That converts an unobserved assumption into an observed precondition and detects drift, but an admin can still weaken the protection *after* the read. Accepted. Calling the residual "closed one layer down" by the very branch protection an admin may have removed would be **circular**: it is not closed; it is BOUNDED, and the bound is a trust assumption that should be stated rather than dressed as a mechanism: everything on this path assumes repo-admin branch-protection config is not hostile. If protection is present at preflight and removed afterwards, an unreviewed head can merge, and nothing in this repo would detect it. What the check does buy is that the far commoner case — protection already weakened when the merge is attempted — stops being silent.
