Native Windows ward exec test previously produced broad failures that obscured the actual platform gaps. The failures came from a poisoned scratch temp cascade, extensionless POSIX fake command fixtures, host HOME leakage through USERPROFILE, and host-native path construction for container paths.

Acceptance:

Test HOME, profile, cache, and scratch state cannot read the operator's real Ward or agent state.
Fake external commands receive Windows argv exactly, including Go-template arguments.
Container and transcript paths use POSIX semantics while Windows host paths remain native.
Unix-only signal, disk-pressure, release-script, executable-mode, and dependency locking assertions are explicit platform restrictions.
The full native Windows test suite passes.
Build, vet, lint, pre-commit, and Linux cross-build validation pass.

Native Windows `ward exec test` previously produced broad failures that obscured the actual platform gaps. The failures came from a poisoned scratch temp cascade, extensionless POSIX fake command fixtures, host HOME leakage through `USERPROFILE`, and host-native path construction for container paths. Acceptance: * Test HOME, profile, cache, and scratch state cannot read the operator's real Ward or agent state. * Fake external commands receive Windows argv exactly, including Go-template arguments. * Container and transcript paths use POSIX semantics while Windows host paths remain native. * Unix-only signal, disk-pressure, release-script, executable-mode, and dependency locking assertions are explicit platform restrictions. * The full native Windows test suite passes. * Build, vet, lint, pre-commit, and Linux cross-build validation pass.
