My group just discovered that an undead army is attacking the region. We also just earned a windfall from killing a ton of pirates, so we have plenty of gold. One of us had the brilliant idea of crafting a Dead Man's Shroud for each of us (or rather a cheaper, less time consuming to build version, that doesn't have the regular invisibility feature).

This dirt-stained cloak was woven in shadow from the burial shroud of a condemned murderer. It prevents nonintelligent undead from detecting you, as per the hide from undead spell. Intelligent undead can perceive you if they succeed at a DC 11 Will save. The warding is ended if you touch an undead creature, channel energy against undead, or attack any creature. Once per day as a standard action you can silently call forth the shadows bound into the shroud, rendering you invisible for 5 minutes.

The problem is bolded. This works fine for the spell it's modeled after, but it's problematic for a constant use item. So how should we interpret this? Does it break the item? Does it ward you again if you take it off and put it back on? Does the warding only fail for the single undead you attack?
