ADR-1239 gains a ninth negotiated axis, effortSurface (argv | none), declaring how
a host accepts reasoning effort. ADR-443 is amended in the same change because its
recorded deferral is what the axis resolves: its Unblock condition offered paths
(a) and (b) and stated the choice was 'a maintainer call this file records but does
not make'. Path (a) is selected and satisfied here.
Before this, effort reached a runtime only through install-time channels
(EFFORT_RENDERING's frontmatter/api), so reviewer CLIs spawned as subprocesses
silently inherited whatever effort sat in the user's own global CLI config. The
review lane now resolves one universal effort through the ADR-443 cascade and
renders it per host through the negotiated descriptor.
Every per-host value is documentation-sourced, never inferred:
- claude argv -- verified via 'claude --help' (--effort <level>)
- opencode argv -- verified via 'opencode run --help' (--variant)
- codex argv -- codex-rs/exec/src/cli.rs: model_reasoning_effort is NOT a CLI
flag (config.toml key only), so the global -c override is the
only argv route
- 15 hosts undocumented -- their docs state no reasoning setting; the sentinel
fails closed rather than inheriting a profile baseline
No config-file vocabulary member: the only host that ever had one (Gemini CLI's
thinkingConfig) was removed as a sunset runtime by 8f2ebbe9b (#1928, PR #1996),
and neither Antigravity CLI nor ZCode documents a reasoning setting.

* fix(release): finalize job calls sync-next-version.cjs to bump next after final release (#2423)
The release pipeline's 'finalize' job shipped X.Y.0 to npm 'latest' and
merged to main, but never bumped 'next' to match. 'scripts/sync-next-version.cjs'
exists exactly for this — its docstring promises to run 'for every release
type (rc / hotfix / final)' — but it was wired only into the 'rc' job
(release.yml:479), not 'finalize'. As a result, after 1.7.0 shipped on
2026-07-15, 'next' stayed at 1.7.0-rc.6 and every npm script banner on
'next' (and feature branches cut from it) reported the stale rc version.
Regression of #1104 — closed incomplete (covered rc only, not final).
This patch:
- adds a 'Sync next branch to the published release' step to the
'finalize' job, mirroring the rc job's pattern at line 479 (uses
VERSION from inputs.version rather than PRE_VERSION from steps.prerelease,
since finalize does not run the prerelease step);
- gates it on !inputs.dry_run + continue-on-error:true (matches rc);
- adds tests/release-finalize-syncs-next-version.test.cjs — a structural
YAML assertion that fails against the pre-fix workflow and passes after.
Failing-first demonstrated during development; the test parses job blocks
by indentation rather than grep so it stays valid as the file grows.
Root-cause diagnosis: scripts/sync-next-version.cjs:14 docstring admits
'used by release.yml's rc job, which has no next-targeting PR of its own'.
release.yml:506-685 (finalize job) had no sync-next-version step before
this patch. Every prior rc.N release has a matching 'chore: sync next
package version to 1.7.0-rc.N' commit; there is no such commit for 1.7.0.
* chore(release): sync next package version to 1.7.0 (#2423)
Replays the canonical 'chore: sync next package version to <v>' commit
that the release pipeline's rc job auto-produces via scripts/sync-next-version.cjs,
for the 1.7.0 final release that shipped on 2026-07-15 (commit dd4c90f82
'chore: finalize v1.7.0' on main). Without this, 'next' (and every feature
branch cut from it) carried 1.7.0-rc.6 indefinitely and reported it in
every npm script banner (e.g. 'lint:ci').
Bumps 43 synchronized manifests via the npm 'version' lifecycle hook
(scripts/sync-manifest-versions.cjs --stage + scripts/gen-capability-registry.cjs
--write), matching the file set of commit 27f69cc48 ('chore: sync next
package version to 1.7.0-rc.6') and commit dd4c90f82 ('chore: finalize
v1.7.0').
This is the immediate Layer-1 repair for #2423. Layer-2 (prevent recurrence)
is the workflow patch in the previous commit; Layer-3 (regression test)
ships with it. Future X.Y.0 final releases will produce this commit
automatically once the workflow fix lands.
* test(release): tighten #2423 dry-run gate assertion to the sync step
Code review of fix/2423 found that test #3 ('gates sync-next-version on
!inputs.dry_run') asserted too loosely: it scanned the entire finalize
block for any '!inputs.dry_run' line, so it would still pass if the
gate were stripped from the sync-next-version step specifically — the
exact regression the test name promises to catch. The finalize job has
multiple steps with their own !inputs.dry_run gates (e.g. Verify
publish), so the loose version masked the very bug it claimed to detect.
Tighten by extracting the specific YAML step block containing
'scripts/sync-next-version.cjs' and asserting the gate appears within
THAT step's lines, not anywhere in the job. Verified the tightened test:
- PASSES against the post-fix workflow (sync step has its own gate)
- FAILS when the sync step's gate is stripped (even when other steps
in finalize retain their own !inputs.dry_run gates) — the exact
regression that previously slipped through
Adds extractStepBlockContaining(jobBlock, marker) helper alongside the
existing extractJobBlock(text, jobName). Reuses the same indentation-
based parsing, so it stays valid as the file grows.
* chore(changeset): backfill pr:2437 in .changeset/sturdy-ibex-jump.md
CLAUDE.md changeset convention: 'Use placeholder pr:0 during initial commit.
Backfill immediately after gh api POST /pulls returns the real number.'
PR #2437 created from branch fix/2423-release-finalize-sync-next-version.
* fix(#2423): add see #2423 to allow-test-rule exemption per ADR-456
CI lint-allow-test-rule-refs failed on PR #2437: ADR-456 requires new
allow-test-rule exemptions added after the ADR's acceptance to include a
tracking issue number in the comment, in the form
// allow-test-rule: <reason> (see #NNN)
The exemption added in commit 976c8b0a2 lacked this ref. Fixed.
Verified locally:
node scripts/lint-allow-test-rule-refs.cjs
→ ok lint-allow-test-rule-refs: 173 grandfathered exemption(s) tracked, no novel untracked offenders
The issue's "0 conditional branches" premise missed a live one: the `!isZcode`
shared-hooks exclusion (bin/install.js). Fold it onto descriptor-driven
hostBehaviors.skipSharedHooksInstall:true (zcode's golden has zero hook files —
byte-parity verified) and drop the now-unused isZcode destructure. Zero live
runtime==='zcode'/isZcode branches remain (AC2 source-grep guard over
bin/install.js + install-engine.cts + surface.cts + runtime-artifact-conversion.cts).
The 6 CLI-bookkeeping zcode mentions (--zcode flag, menu, roster, help) stay.
Reference test (declarative-reference-zcode.test.cjs): profileOf → declarative-cli;
createDeclarativeAdapter({runtime:'zcode'}).kind → declarative; a real install emits
the invocable nested-skills/commands/agents surface (no hooks); negotiateHostCapabilities
fail-closes (empty/corrupt descriptor; the nested/maxDepth undocumented sub-axes degrade
to most-restrictive); validateCapability clean.
UPGRADES documented as BLOCKED (verified doc gaps — NOT guessed, to avoid a
non-functional false-green): both of ZCode's documented capabilities lack a published
on-disk config format.
- Hook automation: zcode.z.ai/en/docs/plugin documents the Hook component only as
"automation hooks triggered on specific events" (capability detected from directory
layout) — no config file format/location/event schema. Cannot faithfully wire.
- MCP registration: zcode.z.ai/en/docs/mcp-services says servers are "stored in the
.zcode configuration file" (UI-only) with no documented on-disk filename/path/schema —
exactly the settings-filename gap the issue AC anticipated.
Both are documented (with the search trail) in the capability matrix + how-to, per AC4's
block-documentation clause; hookBus/transport stay declared for when ZCode publishes the
formats. No hook scripts or MCP artifacts added → no golden change, no other-runtime impact.
Golden: byte-identical for all 16 runtimes (the fold is byte-parity; no upgrade artifacts).

Add ZCode as a first-party runtime via a declarative capability descriptor
(capabilities/zcode/capability.json) with zero hardcoded runtime === 'zcode'
branches — exercising the de-hardcoded, data-driven runtime path that 1.7.0
(ADR-1016 / ADR-1239) enables.
Descriptor (all axes sourced verbatim from zcode.z.ai docs):
- configHome ~/.zcode; nested skills + flat commands/agents; profile-marker install
- Claude-shaped skill format reuses convertClaudeCommandToClaudeSkill (no new converter)
- hostIntegration: declarative / slash-file / mcp / electron; dispatch background=false
(foreground-only per docs); nested+maxDepth undocumented; passive model mode
Installer registration (data, not branches): --zcode flag, allRuntimes, runtimeMap,
interactive menu, --all list. getGlobalConfigDir + resolveRuntimeArtifactLayout +
ALLOWED_CONFIG_RUNTIMES + resolveInstallPlan all derive from the descriptor.
Revamped the brittle per-runtime golden-master tests to be count-agnostic,
descriptor-derived property tests (1.7.0 makes runtimes pluggable data, so pinning
frozen '15 runtime' snapshots is the wrong invariant): getdirname, label-policy,
config-adapter-registry (intent + install-plan golden master), capability-registry,
host-integration-descriptors (counts derive from curated maps). Adding a runtime
descriptor now extends coverage with zero edits to those suites.
Welcome banner, --zcode help, supported-runtimes how-to, and the host-integration
capability matrix (every axis cited) updated.
