# T-1075: Fix project boundary false positive — TermLink commands inside loops/pipes

## Context

R-037 concern. TermLink exception in check-project-boundary.sh only matches commands starting with `termlink`. Commands inside loops (`for n in ...; do termlink pty inject ...`) are blocked because the loop starts with `for`, not `termlink`. Discovered during T-1071 consumer upgrades.

## Acceptance Criteria

### Agent
- [x] TermLink exception matches commands containing `termlink` anywhere (not just at start)
- [x] Existing boundary tests still pass (23/23 original tests)
- [x] TermLink commands in loops/pipes are allowed (5 new tests: start, for-loop, semicolon, &&, fw termlink)

## Verification

bats tests/integration/check_project_boundary.bats
# The completion gate runs each command — if any exits non-zero, completion is blocked.
