This snippet is clearly ambiguous, since it allows two different parses of -1, which -Wcex nicely showed.

If I were you, I would handle this in the scanner.  IOW, the scanner should be extended to support signed literals, and process that initial `-`.  So the grammar would no longer include `exp: "num"`.

Your actions look quite badly typed.  And `std::endl` should seldom be used, `'\n'` is enough.

Cheers!
