## Body

    Cause (Documented platform behavior): Isolation guard refuses unverifiable git targets.
    
    Fix status: documented_behavior
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://code.claude.com/docs/en/errors.md (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): 'Command blocked by the worktree isolation checks' explains the two reasons and the example refusal text.
    
    Search phrasings: claude code worktree isolated command refused; claude code git -C main checkout blocked
    
    Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
