A claude session on its own CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR launched on an endpoint with
<isolated>/projects linked to the server's tree. The resume pin looks there, so
apply found no transcript and started a new conversation, and on clear the
endpoint's transcript stayed behind in the server's tree.
The link now goes to <own dir>/projects when the session set one, so the
conversation and what the endpoint run adds stay on the session's own account
across an apply, a clear and a restart. It goes through linkRealHomeEntry(),
which also creates a missing projects folder instead of leaving a dangling
link, in the own dir and in ~/.claude/projects on the default path. A relative
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR of the server gets no link, since joining it would create
projects under the server's working directory.
Rule #516: guardSessionConfigDirHome() now covers configDirVar, so all three
apply sites (route, quick-start, boot recovery) probe the own dir bounded before
the apply touches it, and a dir that does not answer falls back to the server's
tree. Under test, HOME is a temp dir and CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR is stripped by
test/setup.ts, which a new test pins.
Measured on a real Codeman server with a fake claude: apply and re-apply resume
under the isolated dir with the transcript landing in the own dir, a clear
resumes on the own dir, the isolated dir goes while the transcript stays, and the
same holds across a server restart. The documented limits come out.

getCustomModelForPersist() trusted homeEnvVar to name a path, but the registry
types it as any env name, so a clis.json override could write a session's own
credential to state.json. Only an absolute path is written now.
A re-apply resolved the CLI's real home from what the session's map held, which
under a selection is the injected directory, and recovery resolved none at all.
An entry the own home lacks (settings.yaml) was then linked from the server's
home on an endpoint switch and on recovery. The route now reads the new
Session.ownEnvValue(), and recovery reads the clamped record through the same
bounded guard, under the bulk cap since it walks every saved session. Also
corrects the comment that said only a removed directory gets its links again.

Say that settings.yaml is shared only until the session's first settings write
(dsh saves by rename, which replaces the link), warn when a session's own DSH_HOME
does not answer and the server's home is linked instead, test
guardSessionConfigDirHome, and document the linkFromRealHome exception and what a
custom-model dsh session does not carry over.
