I ruff a diamond at trick two. Five clubs, four trumps, two ruffs and an ace = 12. But not if I win the lead in the wrong hand.

No - I plan to play one to the ace, look shocked when West shows out, and concede two down.

as pointed out, you needed to win ♣Q to bring this contract home, and do a second round club finese.
