GodopuandClaude Fable 5.1 40293841e7 test(issue-55): tests no longer write into the user's real agent homes
An agent pane inherits HOME_DIR, CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR and LOCAL_BIN from
lib.sh's exports (and the adapters read CODEX_HOME). DiscoveryContext
prefers CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR over the home_dir a test passes and every
adapter path reads HOME_DIR before HOME, so a suite run by an agent
wrote fake conversation folders into the user's real ~/.claude/projects
(test_adapter_discover, 40 folders on 2026-10-10).

- conftest._isolate_agent_homes (autouse): drops the four pane variables
  for every test, so HOME - which the suite's tests set for an isolated
  home - governs, as in a plain shell. Dropped rather than pointed into
  tmp_path: a fixture-set HOME_DIR would shadow the 11 adapter-contract
  tests that set HOME alone, the same way the pane's value did.
- conftest.agent_home_leak_guard (session autouse) + tests/_agent_home_guard.py:
  snapshots the entry names of the real claude/agy/codex/grok/opencode/
  hermes conversation directories (as the ambient environment names them,
  recorded in pytest_configure) and fails on new ones; read-only. A claude
  folder whose name decodes (against the file system) to a real directory
  outside the temp roots is an operating agent's and is not counted.
- tests/test_issue55_agent_homes.py: the dropped-variable list is pinned
  against the env reads of lib_py/agents, lib_py/paths.py and lib.sh;
  guard unit tests; the issue's reproduction as a subprocess regression
  (on base 42e5173 it leaves <dir>/-…-test-adapter-discover0-ws/u-c1.jsonl).

"""Issue #55: tests never write into the user's real agent homes.
- L: the variable list conftest._isolate_agent_homes drops is pinned against
the code - every `*_DIR` / `*_HOME` / `HOME` / `LOCAL_BIN` variable the
adapters, lib_py/paths.py and lib.sh read from the environment is either
dropped by the fixture, left alone on purpose, or a control-plane path
isolated by _isolate_mam_state_dirs. A new path variable in an adapter
fails here.
- F: what the fixture does, and that mam_sandbox still wins.
- G: the session guard's helpers (tests/_agent_home_guard.py).
- R: the issue's reproduction - with CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR set like an agent
pane's, test_adapter_discover passes and writes nothing there.
