Adds an Add Case -> "Clone Repo" tab plus two endpoints, implementing @DodgyBadger's proposal in #236: clone a public repository straight into codeman-cases/<name> and register it as a normal local case. POST /api/cases/clone is synchronous by design (request held open, bounded by GIT_CLONE_TIMEOUT_MS): no job store, no polling, no cancellation surface. Success broadcasts the usual case:created event, so the case still appears when a proxy idle-timeout kills the request mid-clone. POST /api/cases/clone-preflight runs `git ls-remote --symref` so the UI can say, while the user is still typing, whether the URL is cloneable without credentials, what its default branch is, and which branches/tags exist. Core lives in src/git-clone.ts, split into a pure half (URL parse, argv/env, ls-remote parse, stderr classification) and a thin IO half, so every security decision is unit-testable without spawning anything: - `<name>::<payload>` transports are refused as a family, not by name: ext:: is the famous one, but any of them dispatches to git-remote-<name> and turns a clone into arbitrary command execution. - A leading `-` is refused AND every spawn puts `--` before the operands. Either alone is one edit away from being a hole. - argv arrays, never a shell. URLs carrying user:password@ are refused. - gitNonInteractiveEnv() closes all four ways git can block on a prompt with no terminal attached (terminal prompt, askpass/GUI, ssh, GCM). HOME/PATH stay inherited, so a user's own credential helper or ssh agent keeps working; Codeman itself collects and stores nothing. - The timeout signals the process GROUP, since clone fans out into git-remote-https/index-pack children that outlive a signal to the parent. - Bounded output (redacted stderr tail, capped ls-remote stdout, 500 refs each) and a global 2-op pool, so N large clones cannot exhaust the host. Repository contents beat scaffolding: an existing CLAUDE.md is kept, hooks are merged into whatever .claude/settings.local.json the repo shipped, and a repo that ships its own Claude settings is reported back as a warning (those hooks run locally as soon as a session starts there). A failed clone removes only the directory the attempt created, and refuses a pre-existing destination outright, so it can never squat on a case name. Not admin-gated in multi-user mode, unlike /api/cases/link: it writes only inside the caller's own case space. Local-path/file:// sources are the exception and stay admin-only there. UI: live verdict under the URL field, case name filled from the parsed repo until the user types their own, branch/tag as a datalist of the remote's real refs, optional shallow clone, and a Brain picker (installed CLIs only) that points the Run button at the chosen agent. Starting a session stays opt-in. The tab hides itself when the server reports no git. Tests: the pure half exhaustively (every refusal has a case), plus real git against a real local bare repo for clone/ref/timeout/cleanup, and a route-level suite with unmocked fs that clones through the endpoint.
