What
The SDK control request that registers a repository root now expands and screens the target before any filesystem access, rejecting NT-namespace paths, UNC paths, automount locations and suspicious Windows spellings, then re-checks the resolved real path against trusted network directories.
Details
Rejections return a generic message to the caller while recording a specific internal reason per case.
Applies to every use of that control request on this build, with no flag.
Evidence
register_repo_root: NT-namespace path rejected before filesystem access
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
