feat: science projects inherit the PyAuto* API code-gate via refer-back#48
Merged
Conversation
…ck (#47) The Create scaffold now generates a thin .claude/settings.json whose PreToolUse(Bash) hook resolves the assistant at runtime ($AUTOLENS_ASSISTANT -> sibling -> sources/ clone) and execs the assistant's validate_pyauto_code.py — nothing vendored, no absolute paths, on by default and fail-open when no assistant clone resolves. The generated AGENTS.md gains a Code gate section with the cross-tool caveat (hooks are Claude Code-only; other harnesses self-enforce via audit_skill_apis.py --code/--file). Validated end-to-end: deny on dead symbol via env-var and sibling resolution, allow on valid symbol, silent fail-open with no assistant. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Generated science projects now ship the assistant's PyAuto* API code-gate via refer-back:
start-new-projectscaffolds a thin.claude/settings.jsonwhose PreToolUse(Bash) hook resolves the assistant at runtime ($AUTOLENS_ASSISTANT→ sibling../autolens_assistant→sources/autolens_assistant) andexecs the assistant'svalidate_pyauto_code.py. The validator stays in one place (validate_pyauto_code.pyresolvesaudit_skill_apis.pyrelative to itself) — the project vendors nothing and bakes in no absolute paths. On by default, fail-open: no assistant clone → silent allow. The generatedAGENTS.mdtemplate gains a "Code gate" section with the cross-tool caveat (only Claude Code runs.claude/hooks; Codex/Gemini/chat self-enforce withaudit_skill_apis.py --code/--file).Strengthens the fork-and-continue story from #45: a collaborator who clones a project inherits the same code-grounding protection.
