This can't be done here, as the wire needs to be drawn _inside_ of the outer box operator here. Instead of clipping against the clip path, we extract its maximum x position at the position of the wire (which is an overkill for simple shapes, but allows to specify even more complicated ones) and place the wire at this position without clipping.
            % Note: this works very well for lines joining at perpendicular angles; but if the shape of the box is more fancy, while the position will be calculated correctly, the wire has a rectangular (or rounded, depending on the line cap) shape that is drawn on top of the operator. While \yquant@softpath@extractmaxxat could without much effort determine exactly the segment of the path that corresponds to the rightmost line, we would then have to convert this single line into a closed path that fills the linewidth and clip against it to get proper joiners. Since most likely, no-one will ever need this, we don't do it. But file a feature request if desired.
