 - **Failure leaves nothing behind.** The destination is removed only when it did not exist before the attempt, and a pre-existing directory is refused rather than cloned into, so a failed clone never squats on a case name and never touches an existing tree.
 - ⚠️ **Error detail comes from the LAST diagnostic line, not the first.** `git clone` opens with `Cloning into '<dest>'…`, so a first-line pick reported the destination path as the reason a bad branch failed (observed against a real remote). `NOT_FOUND` wording must also say "or private": GitHub answers "Repository not found" for a private repo and a typo alike when unauthenticated.
 - **Multi-user**: NOT admin-gated, unlike `/api/cases/link` — it writes only inside the caller's own `resolveCasesDir`. The exception is a `local`-transport source (an absolute path or `file://`), which is admin-only there because per-user spaces live inside one `$HOME` and a local clone would read straight through that boundary.
-- **UI** (`case-clone` tab in the Add Case modal): debounced preflight paints a verdict under the field, fills the case name from the parsed repo (until the user types their own), and turns the branch/tag field into a datalist of the remote's real refs. The **Brain** picker sets the toolbar run mode on success (gated by `isCliAvailable()`, like `#runModeMenu`), so Run already points at the chosen CLI; starting a session stays opt-in. The tab hides itself when the server reports no `git` (injected via `window.__codemanCliAvailable`).
+- **UI** (`case-clone` tab in the Add Case modal): the **Clone into a custom folder** field is a PARENT folder, like Create New's: the tab sends `<folder>/<case name>` as `path` (`_cloneTargetPath()`), so the API's `path` stays the exact target; debounced preflight paints a verdict under the field, fills the case name from the parsed repo (until the user types their own), and turns the branch/tag field into a datalist of the remote's real refs.

 Tests: `test/git-clone.test.ts` (pure half exhaustively, plus REAL git against a REAL local bare repo for clone/ref/timeout/cleanup), `test/routes/case-clone-routes.test.ts` (deliberately **unmocked fs**, real clone through the endpoint).
