+**MECHANICAL FIX FIRST (2026-07-01): for any PowerShell payload crossing a
+mangling layer (RMM dispatch, ScreenConnect command box, plink, curl.exe args),
+use `.claude/scripts/ps-encoded.sh`** — it UTF-16LE-base64 encodes a script file
+and delivers it via `powershell -EncodedCommand` (`encode` prints the paste-safe
+one-liner; `rmm <agent-uuid> <file>` dispatches + polls via GuruRMM). Base64 has
+no quotes/backslashes/`$` to strip, so the script arrives byte-exact (verified:
+UNC `\\` survives). Author the script with the **Write tool**, not a bash heredoc
+(Git-bash heredocs collapse `\\` even single-quoted). The manual rules below
+remain for one-off inline args only.

 On Windows, **embedded double-quotes inside a command argument get silently
 stripped or mangled** at two separate layers we hit repeatedly. The body of the
 arg survives; the `"` characters vanish, so the receiving program sees broken
