blockedReason() refused every path below a cases directory, with the reason that it is
"already listed as a local case". GET /api/cases lists only the direct children of the cases
directory, so only those can be registered twice. With CODEMAN_CASES_PATH set to a broad root
such as /mnt/user/Scripts, the rule blocked almost the whole tree, including folders that are
already linked cases. Refuse the cases directory itself and its direct children only, and name
the cases directory in the message.
- hooks-config: a probe the bulk cap refused gets ONE bounded re-probe past the
cap (probeBeforeTouching), and whatever is still unknown is skipped. The
per-spawn hook and statusLine helpers used to fall back to an unbounded
lstat/readFile there, which on a dead workspace never settled and could take
the last threadpool workers (and hang the boot hook sweep). New test: cap
engaged, stat/lstat/readFile hanging on two more paths; both helpers return.
- describeUnknownPath()/unknownPathReason(): POST /api/sessions, quick-start and
GET /api/cases/:name now say a folder was not checked (other mounts are still
not answering) instead of blaming a healthy folder at the stall ceiling.
errorCodes unchanged.
- #535 x #516: Create in a custom folder probes the parent through the bounded
probe before realpath/stat/lstat/readdir touch it; an unknown parent is 422
OPERATION_FAILED (UNREACHABLE) within the probe timeout. New test.
- Docs: MAX_STALLED default is 2 (follows UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE), CaseInfo
.unreachable covers a refused probe, the boot sweep skips an unanswering
workspace, a CLAUDE.md gotcha for bounded probes, verbs.md documents the 422
(plugin mirror synced), api-reference documents the custom-folder 422.
- Tests: the launcher case-lookup describe is no longer nested in the Grok
block, and the cap-below-ceiling test no longer depends on an inherited
UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE / CODEMAN_PATH_PROBE_MAX_STALLED.

- Route test hygiene: each test works in its own mkdtemp folder, every
deletion goes through safeRmHomeTree, and the suite refuses to start
outside test/setup.ts's temp HOME, so a raw `npx vitest` can no longer
delete a real ~/projects or the live linked-cases registry.
- Path policy: the symlink-resolved target is also judged against the
resolved home, data dir and system roots (home reached through a link,
macOS /etc -> /private/etc); test expectations are realpath-safe.
- Refuse a target equal to or inside the caller's or the shared cases
directory, pointing at plain Create New (it would list twice, and
deleting the local copy removes files).
- The registry re-read comment no longer claims to prevent the
lost-update race; documented as narrowing it, like /api/cases/link.
- UI: the success toast names the folder the server created, the
"under ~/codeman-cases" blurb and name hint change while a custom
folder is ticked, a "/" parent previews and sends /<name> instead of
an empty path, and the new labels have zh-CN entries.

POST /api/cases takes an optional path; Add Case > Create New gets a 'Create in a
custom folder' option with Browse. The folder is created (or an empty one filled),
scaffolded like a normal case and registered as a linked case. System, home,
credential and Codeman folders are refused; a folder with files is Link Existing's
job; a failure after the first write undoes what this call created. Admin only in
multi-user mode, like Link Existing.
