0fca71eaae enhance(#2529): cover every workflow with response-language directives + CI lint (#2558)
* enhance(#2529): cover every workflow with response-language directives + CI lint

Every workflow now carries response-language coverage in one of three forms,
and a CI lint keeps it that way.

- 43 workflows load the new shared reference,
  `gsd-core/references/response-language-directive.md`, by eager `@`-import.
- Lazy-loaded modes/steps/templates, which cannot rely on an eager import,
  carry an exact inline directive; 35 such paths are pinned by exact path.
- Fragments dispatched by a covered parent inherit coverage, proven per file
  rather than granted per directory.

The 45 workflows whose directive covered only "questions, prompts, and
explanations" now name inter-tool narration, which is the defect #2529
reports: the running commentary between tool calls stayed English while the
answers around it were translated.

`scripts/lint-response-language-coverage.cjs` enforces it and fails closed on
three independent discovery failures (unreadable catalog, empty catalog,
unfollowed symlink). It resolves which reference a workflow imports and applies
the same four-predicate test to that file, so a weakened shared reference
uncovers its importers instead of passing silently, reported once as a systemic
failure rather than 43 times. The walk follows symlinked subtrees with a
realpath cycle bound. `lint:ci` invokes it by name.

REQ-LANG-03 and REQ-LANG-04 state the contract in docs/FEATURES.md;
REQ-LANG-04 names the two forms that satisfy it ("narration", "between tool
calls") rather than enumerating class members an author cannot use verbatim,
and a test pins that text to what the matcher accepts.

* chore(#2529): register the coverage test in the docs-guard lane

`107eb8c1` (#3787) landed the docs-guard lane on `next` while this PR was
open: a test that reads a `docs/` path must be named in
`scripts/docs-guard-registry.cjs` or carry a `docs-guard-exempt` marker,
so the guards that read a doc run on the PR that changes it.

`tests/response-language-coverage.test.cjs` reads `docs/FEATURES.md` -- it
extracts every form REQ-LANG-04 offers an author and runs each through the
matcher that enforces it. Registration, not exemption, is the correct side
of that gate: a reword of the requirement with no code change is precisely
the diff this test exists to catch, and it is the diff the lane would
otherwise skip.

Registered narrowly (`['docs/FEATURES.md']`) rather than with the `'*'`
sentinel, so an unrelated docs change does not pull this test into the lane.

Verified: lint-docs-guard-registration 0 violations, tests/ci-docs-guard-registry.test.cjs
51/51, lint:ci exit 0.

* chore(#2529): consolidate this PR's emitted-growth acks into its own fragment

This PR ripples emitted bytes across 85 workflow paths. Until now each ripple
was acknowledged by appending to whichever live fragment owned that path,
because two ack sources may never name the same path.

`a84f7563` (#3078) swept all 45 fully-spent fragments off `next`. Forty-two of
the paths this PR grows were owned by swept fragments, so those keys are now
unowned and this PR's own fragment declares them directly -- one path, one
source, and no dependence on a fragment that no longer exists. Each adopted
entry keeps its measurement and records where it came from.

Two paths are handled differently, because the sweep did not free them:

- `review.md` is now owned by `3034-parallel-reviewer-lanes.json`, which
  landed on `next` after the sweep. Its entry is live, so the old route still
  applies: this PR's note is appended to that entry rather than declared a
  second time.
- `plan-review-convergence.md` keeps the arrangement made in round 24.

Result: 3 fragments in the directory, 85 keys in this PR's own,
0 cross-source duplicates. `lint-emitted-drift-ack` exit 0,
`tests/emitted-attribution.test.cjs` green.

* fix(#2529): move REQ-LANG-03/04 into the feature fragment that now generates them

`36375513` (#3845) made docs/FEATURES.md a generated projection of
docs/features/*.md, marked "do not edit by hand". This PR wrote REQ-LANG-03
and REQ-LANG-04 straight into the generated file, so the rebase left the
requirement present in the projection and absent from its source -- the next
regeneration would have deleted both, and `tests/features-index-gate.test.cjs`
was already red on the mismatch.

Both requirements now live in docs/features/response-language-config.md
alongside REQ-LANG-01 and -02. Regenerating produces a docs/FEATURES.md that is
byte-identical to the committed one, so the text this PR shipped is unchanged --
only its source of truth moved to where #3840 put it.

The docs-guard registration is widened to name the fragment as well as the
projection. The requirement's source is the fragment now, and an edit there
that skips regeneration would otherwise reach this guard through neither path.

Verified: features-index-gate 68/68, lint-docs-guard-registration 0 violations,
ci-docs-guard-registry + response-language-coverage 142/142.

* chore(#2529): hand the plan-phase ack back to its new live owner

`c933184b` (#3825) landed `3172-stated-failing-direction.json` on `next` after
fragment had adopted that path when the sweep left it unowned, so the merged
tree named it from two sources -- a hard failure in
`scripts/lint-emitted-drift-ack.cjs`.

The path has a live owner again, so the append route applies: this PR's note
joins that entry, carrying its own measurement, and the key is dropped from
this PR's fragment (84 keys left, the others untouched). The provenance
sentence written for the swept-fragment case is removed rather than reused --
this path was never orphaned, so that account of it would be false.

Same shape as `review.md` and `plan-review-convergence.md`: ownership is a
property of the merged tree, and a fragment landing upstream after a push can
reclaim a key no local check would have flagged.

Verified: lint-emitted-drift-ack exit 0, lint:ci exit 0.

* fix(#2529): state byte figures that are true against the tree

The reference claimed `execute-phase.md` has "2 bytes of headroom under the
ceiling named below". That was true when the sentence was written -- the file
sat at 93398 against the 93400 comfort assert -- and upstream has since shrunk
it to 91493 against a 93600 hard ceiling, so the figure now understates the
headroom by three orders of magnitude. The rationale the sentence supports does
not depend on the number, so the number is gone rather than refreshed: a
restated figure would go stale again on the next upstream edit, and nothing
parses it.

Audited every other numeric claim this PR ships the same way, mechanically
against the merge base: all 82 FILE-delta claims in the ack fragment match the
real per-file delta exactly, and the 1,629-byte reference and 63-byte import
line check out. One class was imprecise: the 41 notes for workflows whose
inline directive was rewritten in place quoted the conversion counterfactual as
"+1,692 bytes more loaded context", which is the reference form's whole weight,
not the increase over the inline directive those files already carry. Each now
names both quantities and the net (+1,605 / +1,609 / +1,584).

* fix(#2529): one rule for pinned vs inherited coverage, and the docs to pick it

Review measured that 14 of the 35 pinned fragments would pass by inheritance
anyway, and that the PR asserted both readings at once: inheritance is real
coverage (so those 14 pins are noise) or it is not (so 30 inheriting fragments
are green-but-uncovered). Only one can be true.

Inheritance is real: the predicate proves it per file -- the parent must
dispatch this exact path from a read/execute context AND be covered itself --
so the parent's directive is in the loaded context by the time the fragment is
read. The 14 pins are therefore removed along with the directive lines they
pinned, and those files inherit like the 30 structurally identical ones. The
rule is now stated where the set is declared, and enforced from the other side
by a test: no member of the pinned set may be one that would have inherited.
That is what decides the form for the next fragment.

- pinned set 35 -> 21; 14 workflow files revert to their base content
- `findViolations` no longer returns early on a pinned path: a file that becomes
  eagerly loaded and takes the shared reference is strictly better off, and the
  gate must not red that. The reference form is admitted because its own wording
  is validated in turn; an arbitrary reworded inline line still fails.
- the reference-directive cache is keyed by size and mtime, not by path alone,
  so a rewritten reference re-asked in one process no longer returns the stale
  verdict
- `carriesInlineDirective` names its negation blindness: four independent hits
  read vocabulary, not polarity
- the real-tree scan asserts each source produced files instead of `> 152`, a
  constant that read as the workflow count and would have passed a scan that
  lost one of its two directories
- the pinned-set size assertion goes the same way: the size follows from the
  rule, so the rule is what the suite asserts

Docs, for the gate that now governs every future workflow:
- `docs/contributing/response-language-coverage.md` -- why the narration class
  is the discriminator, the four coverage forms, the decision order that picks
  one, the pinned line, and what each failure message means
- a row in CONTRIBUTING.md's CI checks table, matching the docs-guard row
- `docs/CONFIGURATION.md` points at it from the `response_language` entry

Also: the changeset said 45 reworded workflows; it is 44 (42 @-reference + 21
pinned + 44 rewritten = 107 touched). That text ships to CHANGELOG.md.

`3707-parse-gap-reporting.json` landed on `next` reclaiming `audit-uat.md` and
`progress.md`; both handed back by the append route, leaving 82 keys here.

* fix(#2529): correct the reference-taker count, 43 -> 42

The ack notes said the import line is byte-identical "in each of the 43
workflows that take the reference" and that the alternative would be "43 inline
copies". The shared reference has 42 importers; the 43rd file in review's table
is `execute-phase.md`, which imports the OTHER reference. Corrected in all 41
notes that carry the sentence, across this PR's fragment and the two it appends
to.

Found by re-running the numeric audit from the previous round after the rebase,
which also re-verified all 84 FILE-delta claims against the new base -- all
exact.

* chore(#2529): migrate the emitted-drift ack from a fragment to commit trailers

ADR-3942 (#3954) landed while this PR was open: the acknowledgment is now a commit
trailer and tests/emitted-drift-acks/ no longer exists. The fragment is deleted and
each key it declared becomes one trailer, reasons unchanged.

The four keys this PR had handed to 3034-*, 3172-* and 3707-* under the one-source
rule come home here. That rule was the whole reason for the hand-backs, and the
trailer model has no shared namespace to collide in -- five of this PR's rounds were
spent on exactly those collisions.

The repo's size gates — the tier hard caps in `tests/workflow-size-budget.test.cjs` and this size ratchet — measure the FILE, not the transitive inline, so they see 63 of those 1,692 bytes; the remaining 1,629 are declared here because no gate reads them. The eager import is accepted on its merits, not hidden: 42 inline copies would be 43 places for the wording to drift, and the reference is the one place it is maintained. Prose only: no step, gate, tool invocation, or subagent dispatch shape changed.

FILE delta and LOADED-CONTEXT delta are both +87 here, and that identity is the point — the directive was deliberately NOT converted to an `@`-reference, because an `@`-import in this repo is EAGER (ADR-1610 Decision point 4; docs/ARCHITECTURE.md: moving prose into a file that is still eagerly `@`-imported "shrinks the measured file without shrinking loaded context"), so the conversion would have bought a smaller measured file at a cost of 1,692 bytes of loaded context per workflow — the 63-byte import line plus the 1,629-byte reference — against the 87 bytes this inline directive costs, a net +1,605. Stated plainly because the gates cannot state it: the repo's size gates — the tier hard caps in `tests/workflow-size-budget.test.cjs` and this size ratchet — measure the FILE, not the transitive inline, so an `@`-reference conversion would have READ as a smaller change to every gate in the repo while costing 1,605 bytes more loaded context per invocation.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: discuss-phase.md — #2529 round 36: this workflow's inline directive was rewritten in round 10 to name inter-tool narration, but in the compressed form, and that rewrite came to −1 byte against `next` — so it declared no growth and this key was absent from this PR's ack set until now. Round 36 replaces the compressed clause with the same enumeration the other rewordings carry — narration between tool calls, status updates, progress notes, findings, questions, prompts, and explanations — because `discuss-phase.md` started from the identical upstream sentence as `verify-work.md` and `new-milestone.md` and those two took the full list, so the shorthand was an inconsistency rather than a decision. +87 bytes against `next`, prose only: no step, gate, tool invocation, or subagent dispatch shape changed. The directive stays INLINE rather than becoming an `@`-reference, because an `@`-import in this repo is EAGER (ADR-1610 Decision point 4; docs/ARCHITECTURE.md: moving prose into a file that is still eagerly `@`-imported "shrinks the measured file without shrinking loaded context"), so the conversion would have cost 1,692 bytes of loaded context against the 87 this sentence costs. `commands/gsd/discuss-phase.md` dispatches this workflow lazily (`Read and execute ...`) rather than `@`-importing it, so the 87 bytes land in the installed file and are read once the workflow is dispatched, not on every command invocation.

* fix(#2529): read the catalog-relative dispatch spelling, and the plural of "output"

Two false positives in the coverage lint, both surfaced by this round's work
rather than by a red gate finding them for us.

#3552 landed `execute-phase/steps/protected-branch.md` on next while this PR was
open, dispatched from execute-phase.md's `"none"` arm with the path written
RELATIVE to the catalog. `namesFragmentAsEntryPoint` only ever looked for the
`gsd-core/workflows/`-rooted spelling, so it read a live dispatch as no dispatch
and the new fragment as uncovered. It now accepts both spellings and matches the
relative one on a path boundary, so `vendor/<path>` cannot vouch for `<path>`.

Recognizing that spelling makes one pin redundant: execute-phase.md dispatches
executor-isolation-dispatch.md the same way, so the fragment inherits and its
own copy of the sentence comes back out. That is the rule round 29 encoded,
enforced by the test that measures it rather than by hand.

`output` was the one term in USER_OUTPUT_RE without an `s?`, so "translate all
outputs, including narration between tool calls" read as uncovered. The new
property tests caught it on their first run.

Those properties pin the rule the hand-written cases are instances of: four
signals on ONE line accept, dropping any one rejects, spreading them across
lines rejects. The vocabulary is written out in the test rather than read back
from the script's regexes, per CONTRIBUTING.md "Fixture provenance (#2371)" -- a
generator seeded from the matcher can only re-derive what the matcher already
believes, and that independence is what caught the plural. Both new properties
are mutation-verified: dropping the narration predicate reds the necessity
property, and collapsing the document to a single line reds the cross-line one.

* enhance(#2529): spell the narration enumeration out in the last two shorthand directives

discuss-phase.md and plan-phase.md were the only two of this PR's 44
rewordings that abbreviated the inserted clause to "narration between tool
calls included" instead of naming the output classes the way the rest of them
do. Both forms satisfy the lint's four predicates, so nothing was broken --
but the point of #2529 is that an author reading one workflow should not have
to infer what the neighbouring one means by "included".

Both abbreviations were size decisions rather than wording ones, and both
reasons have since expired because next shrank the files. discuss-phase.md
sat 25 bytes under the 32,000-byte #717 dispatcher budget and now has 1,825;
plan-phase.md sat 87 bytes under the 94,519-byte ADR-857 capstone ratchet
against a +108 clause and now has 3,180. Neither budget is raised here and no
unrelated prose is trimmed; workflow-size-budget and
phase6-capstone-conformance both pass.

discuss-phase.md started from the identical upstream sentence as verify-work.md
and new-milestone.md ("All user-facing questions, prompts, and explanations in
this workflow"), and those two received the full enumeration; it now matches
them exactly. plan-phase.md keeps its own scope word ("orchestrator output") and
its subagent pass-through instruction, both upstream's, and only trades the
shorthand for the enumeration.

The shorthand now appears nowhere in the catalog. The two remaining variants
(plan-review-convergence.md, spec-phase.md) keep upstream's own verb and scope
and end on "report prose", which is what those workflows actually emit --
rewriting those would change a directive's strength, not its wording.

* fix(#2529): match the workflow extension case-insensitively in coverage discovery

`findMarkdownFilesRecursive` filtered on `entry.name.endsWith('.md')`, so
`SETTINGS.MD` — the same file to Windows and macOS, a different one to Linux —
was skipped on the only platform whose verdict gates the merge. The direction of
that failure is the problem: a workflow the walk declines to see is a workflow
this lint certifies by omission, which is the same vacuous pass `main()` already
refuses when discovery returns nothing at all.

The filter is now an allowlist keyed on the lowercased `path.extname`.
`.mdx` stays out on purpose: admitting an extension states what a workflow IS,
and that claim has a second half — `inheritsParentCoverage` resolves a
fragment's parent as `<workflow>.md`. An `.mdx` entry belongs here next to the
parent resolution it would have to move with, not ahead of it.

Two tests: an uppercase-extension file is discovered AND lands as a violation
rather than an exemption, and every admitted extension is spelled so the
lowercasing match can reach it (an uppercase or dotless entry would be dead
configuration that reads like coverage).

* enhance(#2529): cover the quick-batch workflow that #3676 landed uncovered

`next` gained `quick-batch.md` and nine step fragments in 2f64e6230 (#3676,
PR #4212) with no response-language directive, so the merge result reds this
PR's own lint with 10 violations. The lint is doing exactly what it exists to
do; the coverage is what has to move.

`quick-batch.md` takes the shared @-reference on line 1, the same as the other
42 top-level workflows, and eight of the nine fragments then inherit through
its `read and execute` stubs. The ninth does not:
`quick-batch/steps/plan-checker-loop.md` is dispatched by a SIBLING fragment
(`planner-wave.md:134`) and named in the parent only inside a parenthetical
with no dispatch verb, which is the shape round 29's rule already covers for
`execute-phase/steps/regression-gate-run.md` and
`plan-phase/steps/prd-express-path.md`. It carries the pinned inline directive
and joins `EXACT_INLINE_DIRECTIVE_WORKFLOWS`; the comment above that set now
names four such fragments instead of three. Coverage: 163 workflows.

`FULL_BUDGET` in tests/skill-frontmatter-contract.test.cjs moves 844 -> 846.
The same commit grew `help/modes/full.md` from 834 to 844 lines, landing it
exactly on the ceiling with zero slack, and the two lines this PR adds there
are its pinned directive and the blank separating it. That is a coverage
contract every workflow carries, not the content creep the budget guards.
The #597 ratchet rule holds: actualMax 846, slack 0, well inside LARGE_GRACE.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: quick-batch.md — #2529: the workflow arrived on `next` in 2f64e6230 (#3676, PR #4212) with no response-language directive, so this PR's lint reds on the merge result; covering it is the PR's whole contract, not an optional extra. It gains the shared directive as a single eager `@`-reference line, the identical form the other 42 top-level workflows take. FILE delta: +62 bytes, as the gate measures it. LOADED-CONTEXT delta: +1,691 bytes — the import line plus the 1,629 bytes of `gsd-core/references/response-language-directive.md`, because an `@`-import in this repo is EAGER (ADR-1610 Decision point 4; docs/ARCHITECTURE.md: moving prose into a file that is still eagerly `@`-imported "shrinks the measured file without shrinking loaded context"). The repo's size gates read the FILE and not the transitive inline, so they see 62 of those 1,691 bytes; the remaining 1,629 are declared here because no gate reads them. Prose only: no step, gate, tool invocation, or subagent dispatch shape changed. Nine `quick-batch/steps/*` fragments are covered without a byte of their own — eight inherit through the parent's dispatch stubs, and the ninth takes the pinned inline sentence, which the emitted surface does not measure.

* fix(#2529): scope row 48 by what a diff says, not by which paths it names

`tests/gsd-quick-batch-quick-regression.test.cjs` treats any branch touching a
`quick-batch` path as #3676 phase work, then forbids it from editing ordinary
`quick.md`. This PR covers EVERY workflow with the shared response-language
directive — quick-batch.md and its fragments included — so the scope check
turned true, and the row read this PR's one-line directive on `quick.md` as a
phase violation.

That is the false positive the row's own #3730 note already scoped away from,
arriving by the other door: not an unrelated branch that misses the surface,
but a catalog-wide sweep that touches all of it. A path now counts as phase
work only when its diff says something other than the coverage contract, and
the two accepted directive forms are read from
`scripts/lint-response-language-coverage.cjs` rather than restated, so a
reworded contract cannot leave the carve-out matching prose the lint no longer
recognizes. A file the branch ADDED still counts — every line is new, which is
what a real #3676-phase branch looks like.

The invariant is unweakened in the direction that matters: a phase branch that
edits `commands/gsd/quick.md`, `gsd-core/workflows/quick.md` or anything under
`quick/steps/` for any reason other than the directive still fails the row.

832dcbb751 fix(#3707): surface UAT rows audit-uat silently dropped, and never report a clean result for a file it could not read (#3887)
* test(#3707): failing-first coverage for the three parseUatItems false negatives

Nine tests that must be red and three controls that must already be green.

The controls are the point of the split. `result: pass` staying unsurfaced is
what stops the fix inverting the filter so eagerly that every passing test
becomes an outstanding item, and the classic single-line shape is the no-churn
control for rewriting the adjacency regex. Both were confirmed green against
the current build before being written down; a control that is red today would
be a second bug, not a control.

Each failing fixture was run through the built parser first and returns []
for its stated cause — the issue row matched then filtered, the block-scalar
and wrapped rows never matched at all, the all-unparseable file vanishing whole.
That evidence is in 50-test-matrix.md rather than asserted.

Tests target ../gsd-core/bin/lib/uat.cjs, the built live module, and drive the
real CLI through runGsdTools. #3706 lost a full RED/GREEN cycle to tests that
imported a different copy of the function under test, so the import target was
verified before anything was written.

* fix(#3707): stop parseUatItems dropping outstanding UAT rows

Three independent false negatives, all in the audit path, plus one the issue
did not mention.

The matcher no longer requires `expected:` and `result:` to be adjacent single
lines. It slices each `### N.` block to the next heading and reads the first
`result:` line within it, taking `expected:` from parseExpectedFromTestBlock —
the seam that already parsed both the block-scalar and inline forms correctly
and was sitting unused two hundred lines away. Two parsers in one module read
the same field with different grammars; now there is one.

The result filter is inverted from an inclusion list of three to an exclusion
of a minimal PASS set. This was the issue's one open design question, which the
reporter explicitly declined to answer for the maintainer; it was asked and
decided deliberately. The fail-safe direction is what parseGapsItems documents
seventy lines below for this same false-negative class (#2286): a token nobody
recognised surfaces rather than vanishing. The trade is a visible, correctable
false positive if a project invents a novel pass-word, against today's silent
and invisible drop.

`issue` also needed a category. It is template-sanctioned with its own `issues:`
counter, but categorizeItem fell through to `unknown` — surfacing it in the
wrong bucket would have been a half-fix.

Finally, a file parsing to zero items no longer vanishes with its frontmatter
`status:`. One with a non-terminal status is reported with `parse_gap: true`,
so the reader gets a cue to look; a `complete` one stays omitted as before.
That is what made the first two defects dangerous rather than merely lossy —
the audit omitted the phase instead of under-counting it.

* fix(#3707): close the review blockers, including a regression I introduced

The remote suite was RED on the previous commit and both reviews found real
defects. Everything below was verified by execution, not by reading.

I introduced a regression against origin/next. The rewritten result matcher was
END-anchored where the old one was not, so `result: pending (blocked on
staging)`, `result: [skipped] # no device` and `result: blocked - waiting` all
returned a row before this branch and returned nothing on it — me reproducing
the exact defect class this issue exists to kill, in the fix for it. The anchor
is gone and each shape has a regression test; trailing text now falls back to
`reason` when the block has none.

`parse_gap` was inferred from the wrong signal. It fired for ANY zero-item file
whose status was not `complete`, which asserted something false about a
perfectly-parsed all-pass file, swept in archived phases left at `testing`, and
is what turned the #2286 Gaps tests red — a control this change was supposed to
keep green. It now derives from headings SEEN BUT UNYIELDED, reported by a new
parseUatItemsWithStats, so an all-pass file and a Gaps-only file are not parse
gaps and a file whose blocks carry no `result:` line is.

The fix was also invisible end to end, which both reviewers caught
independently. parse_gap entries carry no items, and both audit-uat.md and
progress.md gate on `total_items === 0` — so the headline symptom, the phase
vanishing, still reproduced for a user and only the raw JSON had changed. There
is now a `parse_gap_files` counter and both workflows gate and report on it.

Also: categorizeItem compared case-sensitively while the new PASS check
lowercased, so `result: PENDING` surfaced as `unknown`; blocks are bounded at
the next heading of any level, so a trailing `## Gaps` entry no longer bleeds
its `reason` onto the preceding test; dead unreachable fallbacks removed; and
the all-pass control was strengthened, since asserting only `total_items === 0`
let it stay green through the bogus parse_gap entry.

* chore(#3707): acknowledge the workflow growth the fix required

The emitted-attribution guard went red because audit-uat.md and progress.md
grew, and it is right to ask: runtime-loaded workflow prose is the product,
so growth there is a real change to what an executing agent reads.

The growth is not incidental to this fix, it IS the fix reaching a user. Both
reviewers found independently that emitting `parse_gap` in the JSON changed
nothing observable, because both workflows gated their output on
`total_items === 0` and parse-gap entries carry no items — so a phase whose
rows could not be parsed still printed "All Clear" and still vanished from the
progress report. The widened gates and the branches that name the unparsed
files with their phase and path are what close that.

Acks exactly the two paths the guard reported, keyed on the bare filename. The
three spent acknowledgments it also listed are inert by its own description —
the base already absorbs them — so they are left alone rather than swept up
here, where they would just add unrelated churn to this diff.

* fix(#3707): close the mixed-file blocker and the second false-clean surface

The suite was GREEN and the isolated review still found a blocker, which is
the useful part: none of this was covered by a test.

A MIXED file dropped its unparseable rows silently. `parse_gap` sat behind an
`else if` on `items.length > 0`, so one parseable row was enough to discard
`headingsSeen` entirely — a file with one pending row and two unreadable blocks
reported one item and no gap. That is the exact class this issue exists to kill,
reappearing inside its own fix for the third time. The flag is now set
independently of item count and the entry carries `unparsed_blocks`, so the
count is quantified rather than merely flagged.

A `result:` inside a fenced code block was being read as real, so a PASSING
test could be reported as outstanding from a value in a code sample — another
regression against origin/next, whose adjacency regex ignored it. Field scans
now run against a fence-stripped copy while `expected:` still reads the raw
block, since a block scalar may legitimately contain fenced-looking text.

The workflow report was still unreachable whenever anything else was
outstanding: the unparsed table lived in the all-clear branch, so a project with
one pending row in phase 01 and an unreadable phase 02 rendered phase 02
nowhere. It now fires on `parse_gap_files > 0` from the `present` step.

planning-inspect was the second surface making a false-clean claim — for
exactly the files audit-uat now flags it emitted `scope: 'complete'` with an
empty unresolved list, positively asserting completeness over a file it could
not read. It consumes the stats now and reports SCOPE.TRUNCATED with a
`uat_unreadable` diagnostic, reusing the vocabulary already used two lines above
for an unreadable file rather than inventing a token.

Also: headings with no name no longer vanish whole; the trailing-text-to-reason
synthesis I had added is removed, since it was never required by the blocker and
silently changed categorization for `result: [skipped] # no device`; the emitted
`result` token is normalized to lower case so it agrees with `category` in a
published contract; and an O(n^2) indexOf is gone from the heading loop.

* fix(#3707): stop rows stealing each other's fields, on all three surfaces

The suite was green when the security review found these. Two are
blocker-severity and one of them is a direct hit on my own verification.

A `### N.` line indented two spaces inside an `expected: |` scalar is a valid
ATX heading, so it became a phantom row that STOLE the real row's result token
while the real row vanished. I had probed this shape and declared it fixed — my
probe asserted the item COUNT and the result token, both of which the phantom
satisfied, so it passed for exactly the reason it should have failed. Block
scalar bodies are now masked to blank lines (line count preserved, so offsets
still line up) before headings are tokenized, and the tests assert row IDENTITY
— number and name — not presence.

Feeding parseExpectedFromTestBlock the raw slice let one row publish another
row's `expected:` from inside a fence the stripped view had correctly excluded.
Blocks handed to it are now clipped at the first fence opener. This was not
cosmetic on the render-checkpoint path: a checkpoint banner a HUMAN reads and
answers was rendering a different row's expected text.

A balanced fence pair straddling a test block made that heading invisible, so
an outstanding row disappeared with no item, no gap and no count — the exact
false-clean this issue exists to close, and a regression against origin/next.
Suppressed `### N.` lines now count toward headingsSeen so the file is flagged.

An unterminated fence swallowed the rest of the document including `## Gaps`,
producing a whole-file false clean. Such a file is now treated as a parse gap,
following what uat-predicate already does.

Found and fixed inline while there: parseExpectedFromTestBlock's scalar opener
required a bare newline, so a CRLF `expected: |` fell through to the inline arm
and published `expected: "|"`, silently discarding the entire value. The same
fall-through hit `|-` and `|+`.

parseFirstPendingTest had the identical exposure on the render-checkpoint path
and now shares the same masking and clipping. Five legitimate fixtures — inline
expected, a real block scalar, CRLF, bracketed pending, and a first-pending
that is not the first test — are byte-identical before and after.

Also from the code review: the admit condition disagreed with the terminal
status guard, so a `status: complete` file with an unparseable block was
emitted as an empty entry that rendered nowhere but inflated total_files; a
control test was vacuous because its fixture filename did not match its phase
dir, so #3511 scoping meant the file was never opened — and that vacuity is why
the admit regression shipped green; an unterminated fence discarded the flag
that would have caught it; `### 1.2.3` parsed as test 1; and planning-inspect
did not share the terminal-status rule.

* test(#3707): assert what the render-checkpoint fix actually does

The suite went red on three of my own tests and the source was right — the
assertions were wrong, in a way worth naming.

One forbade the rendered checkpoint from containing `### 3. Fake Row`. But in
that fixture the string IS row 1's legitimate `expected:` block-scalar value; a
heading-shaped line inside a scalar is inert text and rendering it is correct.
The test was forbidding correct output. It now asserts row IDENTITY — the
checkpoint is for test 1 named Alpha and never test 3 named Fake Row — which is
the property that actually distinguishes the fix from the bug.

The other expected success where the correct outcome is a clean error: row 1 in
that fixture has no `expected:` of its own and only ever appeared to have one by
stealing row 2's from inside a fence. Depending on the bug to produce a pass is
how a test ends up pinning the defect. The fixture now gives row 1 its own
value and asserts the checkpoint carries it and never the fence-hidden text, and
the error path gets its own test asserting it fails cleanly without leaking.

All three were checked against the real rendered output before the assertion was
written, and each was reasoned through for whether it can fail: the identity
test breaks if a phantom row is parsed, the clipping test breaks if the raw
block is read again, and the error test would pass-not-fail under the old
stealing behavior.

* fix(#3707): correct the scalar masking frame and cover every YAML block opener

Two reviews independently found the same blocker, and it is the sharpest defect
on this issue: maskBlockScalarBodies computed line offsets in UTF-16 units but
spliced them into Array.from(content), a CODE POINT array. One emoji anywhere
earlier in the file shifted every later mask write, so the mask blanked the
wrong characters and spilled past line ends. Measured: at two astral characters
a result token truncated `pending` to `pendi` and recategorized to unknown; at
six the real row vanished; at twelve the FOLLOWING row's `result: blocked`
disappeared and the file reported clean. That is the false-clean class this
issue exists to close, reintroduced by the mitigation written to prevent it, and
defeating both new detectors at once. The mask is rebuilt line by line now,
which is frame-agnostic and length-preserving by construction.

The opener grammar was also incomplete. YAML block scalar headers take an
optional indentation indicator and an optional chomping indicator in either
order, so `|2`, `|2-`, `|-2`, `>2`, `>2+` are all valid — and none were matched.
An unmasked `expected: |2` body meant a `### N.` line inside the value became a
real heading: reproduced, row 1 disappeared and a fabricated row 2 named
"Phantom" took its identity.

Fixing that exposed a third instance of the same family, found by my own probe
rather than by review: the value extractor understood only the `|` openers, so
every `>` folded scalar published the LITERAL OPENER as its value — `expected`
came back as ">" or ">2+" and the whole scalar was discarded. The extractor now
shares the opener grammar and implements real folding, joining paragraph lines
with a space and turning a blank line into a newline, rather than pretending `>`
means `|`.

Also from the reviews: the shortfall counter scanned the masked copy but not a
fence-stripped one, so a `### N.`-shaped line inside a properly closed
documentation fence — the ordinary way to document the row format inside a UAT
file — counted as a suppressed row and flagged the file against nothing; and
clipping at the first fence discarded a legitimate `expected:` that appeared
after a closed fence, which is silent field loss.

Every opener now verified for both row identity and exact extracted value, in
LF and CRLF, alongside the emoji fixtures at 1/2/6/12.

* refactor(#3707): replace the scalar masking with a column-0 heading rule

The fix had grown to five helpers whose only job was undoing one
over-permissive rule: tokenizeHeadings treats a heading indented up to three
spaces as real, so a `### N.` inside an `expected: |` body was parsed as a row
and stole the real row's identity. Every blocker in the last three review
rounds came out of that machinery rather than the reported bug — worst of all
a UTF-16-versus-code-point frame mismatch that corrupted any document
containing an emoji.

A UAT test heading is at column 0. The shipped template puts all of them there,
no `*UAT*.md` in the repo has an indented one, and the only indented `### N.`
lines in the tree are the adversarial fixtures that must not parse. Requiring
column 0 makes a scalar-interior heading a non-heading by construction, so
maskBlockScalarBodies, indentWidthOf and BLOCK_SCALAR_OPENER_RE are gone along
with the mask-invariant test that existed only to guard them. The frame bug is
now structurally unreachable: no code-point array or offset splicing remains.

The premise was incomplete and the reviewer caught it rather than forcing it
through. Masking had been doing double duty — it also hid indented FENCE
delimiters from the tokenizer, so removing it let a two-space fence inside a
scalar body swallow a later column-0 row. The alternative on offer was to
rewrite that test to assert the row is merely counted, which is a behavior
regression dressed as a passing suite. Instead there is a small line-based pass
that blanks only indented fence delimiters — same "column 0 is structure" rule
extended consistently, no YAML knowledge, and line-based by construction so the
frame bug cannot come back. It was proven load-bearing by a negative control:
reverting the wiring reproduces the regression exactly.

Kept, because they fix defects column-0 does not touch: the fence clipping that
stops one row reading another's `expected:` from inside a fence, and the folded
scalar handling that stopped `expected: >` publishing the literal ">".

Also corrects a comment left pointing at a symbol this commit deletes.

* fix(#3707): blank neutralized fence bodies, and give both parse paths one grammar

Reviewing the simplification found two more, and the first is row theft again —
the sixth time this class has surfaced on this issue, and the second time
inside a mitigation written to stop it.

Neutralizing an indented fence blanked only its DELIMITER lines. If the block's
body held a column-0 `### N.`, un-hiding the delimiters made that line a real
heading, which then took the preceding row's fields: an `### 1. Alpha` document
came back as a single row 9 named Phantom, with Alpha gone. Neutralized blocks
are now blanked open-to-close, body included, which is the honest reading of
the intent — an indented fence inside a scalar is content, so nothing in it
should be able to produce structure. The raw block is still what the expected
extractor reads, so a legitimate `expected: |` carrying a fenced code sample
keeps its full text.

The two parse paths also disagreed about what a test row IS.
parseFirstPendingTest filtered on `^\d+\.\s+` while parseUatItemsWithStats used
`^\d+\.(?!\d)`, so `### 3.Foo` was a row when audited and not a row when
resumed. Both now share one predicate and one extractor. The extractor mattered
as much as the filter: the checkpoint path's name-mandatory pattern would have
skipped exactly the shapes the widened filter admits, so fixing the filter alone
would have moved the divergence down a line rather than closing it.

Also from the security pass: parseUatItems had become an export with no callers
and no direct test once both consumers moved to the stats form. It stays, since
deleting an exported symbol from a shipped module is a contract change and not
this issue's business, but it is now documented as the items-only wrapper and
has a test. And the PASS check lowercased a value that extraction had already
lowercased; normalization now happens once.

* fix(#3707): revert the whole-block fence blanking, and pin the rule instead

My previous commit over-corrected and the suite caught it. Blanking a
neutralized fence block open-to-close destroys content legitimately living
between the delimiters, and on an UNTERMINATED opener it blanks to EOF and
deletes every later row. No framing makes that correct, and it is what turned
two earlier tests red.

The "blocker" that prompted it was my own misreading. This change adopted the
rule that column 0 is structure and indentation is content. Under that rule an
indented fence delimiter is not a fence, so a column-0 `### 9.` sitting between
two indented delimiters genuinely IS a heading, and a `result:` after it
genuinely belongs to it. That document is malformed and the parser reading it
that way is consistent, not stealing. Nothing is silently lost either: the row
whose result was taken surfaces as the parse gap.

So the blanking is back to delimiters only, and rather than leaving the
question open, the behavior is now pinned by a test asserting the rows by
identity, with the rule stated at the site — so the next person does not
oscillate the way I just did.

Kept from the reverted commit: the shared row-heading grammar and extractor
across both parse paths, the parseUatItems wrapper documentation and its test,
and the single point of lowercasing.

* fix(#3707): scope the shortfall scan, and stop neutralized content becoming structure

The security review found a HIGH that is the earlier frame-mismatch bug wearing
different clothes. The shortfall scan compared a SECTION-scoped raw line count —
the `## Tests` body — against a DOCUMENT-wide token count. So a single legal
`### N.` row anywhere outside `## Tests` decremented the shortfall and switched
the fence-straddle detector off: an identical `## Tests` section went from
`headingsSeen 1, parse_gap true` to `headingsSeen 0, no gap` purely because a
`## Prior` section existed. A document whose rows render as ordinary blocked rows
in any CommonMark renderer audited as totally clean. Both sides of the
comparison now come from the same surface, by filtering tokens to the scan
span rather than re-tokenizing, so there is no second offset basis to keep in
step.

Neutralizing a fence could also promote its former CONTENT into structure: a
column-0 delimiter run inside an indented pair became an opener once the
enclosing delimiters were blanked, hiding every later heading to EOF. Column-0
delimiter-shaped lines inside a neutralized block are now blanked too — and only
those, so a column-0 heading between neutralized delimiters is still a heading
(the pinned behaviour) and the field lines of a row living between two scalars
still survive. The reviewer corrected my repro while fixing it: an even number of
inner runs re-pairs and hides nothing, so the live shape needs an odd one, and
both are now tests.

Two more from that pass. A legal scalar header carrying a trailing comment
(`expected: | # sample`) failed the end-anchored grammar, publishing the literal
header and raising a false gap. And the indented-row counter walked backwards
per row: 3.6 seconds at sixteen thousand rows, now 15ms, via one forward pass —
though the reviewer also established my example was not the quadratic shape,
which needs an uninterrupted scalar body.

Carried in from the previous round: the indented-row counter keys on any block
scalar rather than only `expected:`, so a template-sanctioned `reported: |`
holding user prose with a heading-shaped line no longer raises a false gap; and
`reason:`/`blocked_by:` read block scalars through the same shared extractor
instead of publishing the literal `"|"`, which also means a multi-line reason
can finally reach categorizeItem — a `reason:` mentioning a server now
categorizes as server_blocked, which was impossible while the value was thrown
away.

* fix(#3707): make the shortfall scan whole-document on both sides

Second HIGH in this area, and the diagnosis is the useful part: I closed the
first one by making the two sides agree, but I did it by NARROWING the token
side to the `## Tests` span while the parse side stayed whole-document. Rows
outside that section are still parsed and surfaced when visible, so when a fence
straddled one it fell through both sides of the comparison — no item, no gap,
file never entered the results at all. A `## Regression Tests` section, or a
second `## Tests` (collectSection takes the first), audited as totally clean
while origin/next surfaced those rows.

Both sides are whole-document now. Symmetry is the property that matters here;
every attempt to be clever about which scope to compare has produced one of
these, twice at HIGH severity.

That reinstates a known over-report, deliberately: a `### N.`-shaped line inside
a closed fence in a `## Notes` section — the ordinary way to document the row
format — counts as a suppressed row and raises a gap on a file with nothing
missing. Noisy, but visible and fail-safe, against two silent false-cleans on
the other side of the trade. This issue exists to eliminate false cleans, so the
trade goes that way, and the reasoning is written at the site so it does not get
optimized back.

Three existing tests encoded the retired scoping and are replaced rather than
worked around: two now assert the accepted over-report, and one asserting a
4-space row is "not counted" was already contradicted by widening the counter to
any indentation — refusing to PARSE a 4-space heading is right, refusing to
COUNT it reopened the hole the counter exists to close.

Also in this commit, from the same review round: the inner-delimiter sweep tested
a column-0-anchored pattern, so an INDENTED delimiter inside a neutralized block
was still promoted to structure and lost a row; it is indent-tolerant now.

A refinement was identified and deliberately not taken — keying the
documentation-sample exemption on the fence info string rather than on section
scope. It is content-based and symmetric, so it would not reintroduce the
asymmetry, but it belongs in its own change rather than riding this one.

* docs(#3707): correct two claims in the over-report justification

Both from review, both comment-only, and both matter because they would
mislead the next person into "fixing" something correct.

The over-report note called the triggering shape "the ordinary way to document
the row format". It is narrower than that: the scan requires literal digits, so
the conventional placeholder `### N. Name` does not trigger it at all — only a
sample written with real numbers does, and no phase UAT file in-tree has one,
only the shipped template, which selectPhaseUatFiles never scans. A maintainer
who tested the documented placeholder form would find no over-report and could
reasonably conclude the pin was stale. That is now stated, and it also makes the
trade look better than I claimed: the real-world frequency is lower.

The attribution guard is described as structural rather than positional. It is
positional in one respect: the walk stops at the nearest column-0 line, so a
block scalar nested inside a `## Gaps` bullet is transparent to it and a
heading-shaped line in that value gets counted. Same accepted over-report,
reached by a path the comment did not mention — recorded so it is not later
mistaken for a new defect.

* fix(#3707): a complete status no longer switches off the parse-gap detector

The security review named this as the last silent-clean path in the change, and
its phrase is the right one: a self-declared kill switch over the very detector
this issue built. A file whose frontmatter said `status: complete` was omitted
unconditionally, so one containing a fence-straddled `result: blocked` computed
headingsSeen = 1 — the detector fired — and then emitted no entry at all. The
audit reported nothing.

The predicate is now status-independent: a file is surfaced when blocks were
seen but yielded nothing, whatever it claims about itself. A terminal status is
an assertion by the author, and an assertion is exactly what must not be allowed
to suppress the signal that would contradict it. What does not change is the
thing the status is actually for — a complete file with nothing to parse, and a
complete file whose rows all parse and all pass, both stay silent, verified
through the real CLI.

I replaced a control test of mine, and it is worth saying why that is not a
weakening: its name was already false. "A zero-item file with a complete status
is still omitted" used a fixture with a `### 1.` block carrying no `result:`
line, so headingsSeen was 1 — it was never a zero-item file, it was the kill
switch itself, pinned. The intent it claimed is now covered by two stricter
tests, one for a file with no blocks and one for a file where every row parses
and passes, each asserting both that no entry exists and that no items are
counted, where the old test asserted only the former.

Everything else is byte-identical: 61 regression cases and the non-complete
equivalents of all four shapes produce exactly the same output as before, with
the delta confined to the two cells this change is meant to move.

* fix(#3707): close the moved kill switch, and keep the archive out of the live gate

Both reviewers independently found that closing the kill switch on one surface
left it standing on the other. cmdAuditUat dropped the terminal-status guard,
but buildUatRows in planning-inspect kept it — and its comment justified that by
claiming to mirror a guard cmdAuditUat no longer had. One byte-identical file
with `status: complete` and a fence-straddled `result: blocked` reported
parse_gap through audit-uat while planning-inspect published
`uat.scope: "complete"` with no diagnostic at all. That is the repo's own
generative-fix-divergence class, and no test pinned that arm, which is why it
survived. The clause and the false comment are gone and the arm now has tests.

Removing it exposed a MAJOR the security pass had not reached: archived phase
dirs are deliberately not milestone-filtered and archived UAT files are
`complete` by definition, so status-independence newly admitted the entire
project archive. One live pending row plus four signed-off milestones produced
parse_gap_files 4 — and since progress.md gates Verification Debt on that
counter, a mature project would have warned on every run, forever, about closed
history no user action can clear. Warning fatigue that buries the next real gap
is the feature defeating itself.

So the counter is split rather than suppressed: `parse_gap_files` counts live
phases only and remains the gate, `archived_parse_gap_files` carries the rest,
and every archived entry stays in `results` with its parse_gap and its
milestone. Nothing became silent; the live signal stayed actionable. Both
workflows report the archived bucket as closed history rather than as something
to act on.

The scope cascade is also decoupled, on the security reviewer's advice that it
is load-bearing here rather than a follow-up: `uat.scope` still reports
TRUNCATED honestly so no completeness is claimed over an unread row, while the
accepted fence-shortfall over-report no longer flips the aggregate fold that
withholds a phase's percentage. A genuinely unreadable file degrades as before.

Also corrects a frequency claim of mine: "no phase UAT file in-tree triggers
this" was true over a sample of zero, since the only UAT file in the tree is the
shipped template. The comment now says the shape is uncommon, which is what I
can actually support.

* fix(#3707): state that the live/archived split does not extend to outstanding_debt

Review MINOR: the split's rationale read as though it governed every counter, but
`summary.total_items` was never split — so a single archived `result: pending` row
re-trips the same Verification Debt warning the split exists to stop. The asymmetry
is deliberate: an archived parse gap is a row nobody can read, so the warning can
never be cleared, whereas an archived pending row is legible work someone can still
pay down by retesting. Debt that can be settled stays counted. The prose now says so
at the point of the claim, instead of leaving the next reader to file it as a miss.

Also rewrites the changeset, which described only the secondary fixes and omitted all
three defects the issue actually reports: `result: issue` dropped, any wrapped or
block-scalar `expected:` never matched at all, and the phase vanishing outright.

* fix(#3707): count every parse gap, dropping the live/archived split

The split had two regressions, both reproduced through the real CLI, and its
premise was false.

uat.cts carries #2766's rationale ~190 lines above the code I added: 'Outstanding
UAT items do not stop mattering when a milestone closes: a deferred human-UAT
scenario or a skipped live-stack test is exactly what gets archived still-open.'
So 'archived UAT files are complete by definition' was never true, and the split
rested on it.

Regression 1: archived-ness was inferred from path shape alone. A phase in the
CURRENT milestone, status in_progress, filed under .planning/milestones/v1.1-phases/
was classified archived and demoted out of the gate — live work reported as closed
history that needs no action.

Regression 2: the split was one-sided. total_items has no archived split, so an
archived outstanding row that PARSES gates Verification Debt while the identical
row that fails to parse was informational. The parse failure was what buried the
debt — the exact bug class this issue exists to fix, re-created one surface over.

parse_gap_files counts every parse_gap entry again, archived or not, so it agrees
with total_items on what archived means. The pre-existing archived_milestone field
and archived-phase scanning are untouched. Regression tests added for both cases.

* fix(#3707): correct the changeset clause left behind by the split revert

The changeset was rewritten before the split was removed, so its final clause
still claimed archived parse gaps are counted separately because signed-off
history is not work anyone can act on. There is one counter now, and that premise
is the one uat.cts refutes and the revert was made over. This text lands in
CHANGELOG.md verbatim, so it would have shipped a description of behavior the
code does not have.

fb2d122d7f feat(#3841): assert gsd-tools identity on every state-mutating verb (#3848)
* feat(#3841): assert gsd-tools identity before any state-mutating verb

only this package publishes. The path-based branches — a project-local install,
a runtime config directory — had no such guarantee; they trusted their
configured location. This closes them.

Mechanism: once resolution finishes, and before any verb runs, the preamble
probes the tool it picked with `runtime-identity --raw` and matches the answer
with a shell `case` pattern ANCHORED to the start of the compact payload
(`{"packageName":"@opengsd/gsd-core"`). An unanchored substring match accepts
the decoy `{"packageName":"get-shit-done-cc","note":"@opengsd/gsd-core"}`, which
any colliding package could publish. The outcome is exported as the two-valued
`GSD_IDENTITY_STATUS` (`ok`/`unverified`), so the gate is asserted on a VALUE
rather than on warning prose. Rollout is warn-then-fail per the #3146 ruling:
`unverified` prints one line naming BOTH causes and continues, because
`no_identity_verb` cannot tell a foreign package from an `@opengsd/gsd-core`
older than the verb, and at rollout the old-version case is the common one.

The blocker was byte budget, not design. The preamble is inlined into 112
shipped files and several sat within single-digit bytes of frozen ceilings
(`gsd-verifier.md` 16 bytes, `gsd-executor.md` 33, `execute-phase.md` 234); a
first attempt broke five of them. What made room was collapsing the resolver's
twenty near-identical `elif [ -f … ]` arms into one candidate-list helper
(`_gsd_at`), which buys far more than the assertion costs. The preamble is now
2,624 bytes against 4,500 — a net 1,876 bytes SMALLER per inlined file, so every
capped file moved away from its ceiling rather than toward it. No cap raised, no
size-budget exception added, no override token emitted.

Resolution order, every runtime-home probe, the `unset -f gsd_run` re-source
fix, the fail-closed `exit 1`, and the `CLAUDE_ENV_FILE` persistence are all
preserved byte-for-byte in substring terms; the snippet still begins with
`_GSD_SHIM_NAME=` and still ends with `fi`, which the parity extractors anchor
on. `gsd-core/references/gsd-run-resolver.md` is re-synced byte-equal.

Also fixes two stale claims found in passing: CONTEXT.md and FEATURES.md both
described an `[ -x ]` guard as the load-bearing re-source defense. That guard
was tried and REMOVED in #3831 — it rejected the bare function name, fell
through every branch, and hit `exit 1`, which kills a sourced caller's shell.
`unset -f gsd_run` is the actual mechanism.

* fix(#3841): pair the anchor's brace by requiring a closed identity payload

The matrix went red on `tests/new-project-mvp-prompt.test.cjs` — "new-project.md
has unbalanced braces: net depth 2" — plus a knock-on report from its parent
`bug #1516` describe, which is the same failure counted once at the child and
once at the block.

Root cause: that guard (:182-189, mirroring #3784 bd53925f) walks characters and
increments on `{`, decrements on `}`, with no awareness of shell quoting. It
scans `new-project.md` PLUS every `new-project/steps/*.md`, and both
`new-project.md` and `steps/auto-mode-config.md` carry one inlined preamble copy
— hence net 2 from a snippet that was off by exactly one. The unpaired brace was
the `{` inside the single-quoted `case` pattern of the identity anchor, which is
correct shell and invisible to a text scanner.

Fix in the snippet, not the guard. The pattern now anchors at BOTH ends:
`'{"packageName":"@opengsd/gsd-core"'*'}'`. That balances 51/51 with a brace that
does real work rather than a cosmetic pair — a truncated payload whose prefix
matches now fails too, where before it verified. Safe for any future additive
field: a JSON object's own closing brace is always the last character, whatever
type the last value has, which is pinned by two negative-space tests (a nested
object and an array-valued last key must both still verify). Cost: +3 bytes,
against the 1,873 the resolver fold already gave back.

The alternative considered and rejected was dropping the literal `{` for a `?`
glob. It balances too, but weakens the anchor from "must be an opening brace" to
"must be any one character", and the anchor is the entire point.

Two guards added so this cannot recur silently:
- runtime-launcher-parity (F0) pins brace balance at the SNIPPET, so the next
  edit to that pattern fails on the file it broke instead of surfacing three
  files downstream in a test whose name mentions neither the launcher nor this
  issue. It also asserts depth never goes negative, since a `}` preceding its
  `{` nets to zero while being unbalanced at every prefix.
- runtime-identity gains behavioral truncated-payload and trailing-garbage
  fixtures, so the added `}` is proven load-bearing rather than merely present.

Verified: snippet 51/51 braces; new-project combined net depth 0; the seven
other preamble-bearing files with nonzero depth are unchanged from merged next
(their own prose, not the preamble, and not in any guard's scan set); all 112
inlined copies and the resolver reference re-synced byte-equal; sync:launcher
idempotent on the second run.

63abcface9 feat(#3146): resolve gsd_run so workflows cannot reach a foreign gsd-tools (#3831)
* feat(#3146): resolve gsd_run so workflows cannot reach a foreign gsd-tools

The predecessor package get-shit-done-cc publishes a colliding gsd-tools bin whose phases.clear DELETES where this package's ARCHIVES, and both print success-shaped output against a gitignored .planning/ -- which is how #3129 cost a user 43 phase directories with no error and nothing recoverable from git.

The launcher's PATH branch now resolves gsd_run, published only by this package and self-locating via its own symlink chain to the sibling shim, instead of the colliding gsd-tools. A foreign handler becomes unreachable from PATH, and when no gsd_run is reachable the resolver fails closed rather than falling back -- that fallback was the vulnerability. This is smaller than the branch it replaces, which matters: the preamble is inlined into 113 shipped files and agents/gsd-verifier.md sits 2 bytes under a red-line size cap.

unset -f gsd_run leads the preamble so a re-source is idempotent. Without it, command -v finds the shell function, returns a bare name, and the resolver falls through to an exit 1 that kills a sourced caller's shell.

Adds gsd-tools runtime-identity, a manual diagnostic reporting this runtime's package coordinates over the baked package-identity (#498) and readHostVersion, with a strict total classifier: only a JSON object with an exact packageName verifies, since JSON.parse admits 0/"str"/[]/null/true.

An inlined identity assertion was built and reviewed first, then withdrawn -- it breaks five frozen size ceilings and no assertion fits in 2 bytes.

Closes #3146

* fix(#3146): stop sync:launcher relocating a deliberate preamble placement

Pre-existing defect, surfaced by this PR because sync is a no-op unless the snippet content actually changes. transformFile inserts the preamble into the first block that CALLS gsd_run, but gsd-core/workflows/explore.md deliberately places it in a bootstrap-only block that DEFINES gsd_run without calling it -- its own comment explains why: declining the research offer must not leave Step 5's commit call unbootstrapped. Stripping empties that block of calls, so the preamble migrated forward and broke the define-before-use invariant tests/explore-command.test.cjs pins.

Reproduced on a pristine origin/next checkout with the base snippet and base file, so this was not introduced here. The insertion target now honours a block that already carried the preamble, falling back to the first calling block for files that have none yet. Adds a behavioral regression test over a two-block fixture.

Also updates three runtime-launcher-parity tests that pinned the removed PATH fallback to gsd-tools. Their intent is preserved -- the PATH stub is renamed gsd_run so it is reachable by the new resolver, and the RUNTIME_DIR-wins test still asserts the stub is never invoked. Fixture shebangs move to an absolute /bin/sh, because the fixture PATH is deliberately restricted and #!/usr/bin/env sh could not resolve.

* docs(#3146): document the FEATURES.md section-numbering practice

The monotonically increasing section number in docs/FEATURES.md is the most frequent merge-conflict source in this repo, and it has TWO conflict cells, not one: the ### N. heading and the hand-maintained table of contents. Two PRs adding differently numbered features still collide on the TOC, so renumbering alone does not make a branch safe. This branch alone was renumbered 165 -> 166 -> 167 -> 168 across successive rebases.

Adds a CONTRIBUTING section stating the practice: allocate the number last, never pre-emptively renumber, take max+1 after a rebase and update the TOC in the same commit, and never renumber someone else's section. Fork contributors are told explicitly they may leave the number to a maintainer at merge rather than chasing the counter. Agents are told to lease the allocation and to include the file in their published touched set.

Records the durable fix as planned rather than pretending it exists: FEATURES.md should be generated from per-feature fragments the way CHANGELOG.md is generated from .changeset/, and the way tests/emitted-drift-acks/ works (#2914).

Also renumbers this branch's own section to 168, leaving 167 to the PR already in flight.

a62079b2da fix(#1865): runtime launcher honors CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR (#2024)
* fix(#1865): runtime launcher honors CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR

The gsd_run preamble resolved the Claude global install only at
$HOME/.claude/gsd-core/bin/, but the installer honors CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR —
so a global install redirected via CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR was invisible to every
gsd_run call (every command failed with 'gsd-tools.cjs not found').

The Claude resolver arm now uses ${CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.claude},
matching the installer + the other runtimes' ${VAR:-default} pattern.
Default $HOME/.claude behavior is unchanged.

- _runtime-launcher.snippet.sh: Claude arm honors CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR.
- sync-runtime-launcher.cjs re-run: 95 workflows/agents re-synced.
- review.md / discuss-phase.md: trimmed to stay under their byte budgets.
- runtime-launcher-parity.test.cjs: (A) substring updated for the new form
  + explicit #1865 assertion that the snippet honors CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR.
- goldens + size baselines recaptured.

7c07fce70f fix(#381): make gsd_run launcher reachable in fresh-shell-per-block runtimes (#1084)
* fix(#381): make gsd_run launcher reachable in fresh-shell-per-block runtimes

On runtimes that execute each fenced bash block in a separate shell process
(e.g. Claude Code — documented behavior: each Bash command is a separate
process; inline shell functions and exported vars do not persist between
calls), the once-per-file gsd_run() function was undefined in every block
after the preamble block, and the call was swallowed by
`2>/dev/null || echo "{}"` into silent empty state.

Fix (budget-neutral session-level resolution):
- Ship gsd-core/bin/gsd_run, a POSIX sh wrapper that symlink-resolves its own
  location and execs the co-located gsd-tools.cjs. Exposed on PATH via the npm
  `bin` field (global installs) and shipped to local installs via the recursive
  gsd-core/ copy.
- The per-file launcher preamble now appends `export PATH='<bindir>':"$PATH"`
  to the file named by $CLAUDE_ENV_FILE (Claude Code's documented
  env-persistence mechanism) so later fresh-shell blocks resolve gsd_run from
  PATH. Guarded as a strict no-op when CLAUDE_ENV_FILE is unset; the inline
  gsd_run() definition remains the fallback for all other runtimes. The
  single-quoted dir neutralizes shell metacharacters at source time.
- Propagated via scripts/sync-runtime-launcher.cjs to all launcher-using files.
- XL workflow byte budget 93000 -> 93200 (the ~130B clause pushes plan-phase.md
  to 93135; legitimate content growth, ratchet-up per #717).

Regression tests (I)/(J) in runtime-launcher-parity.test.cjs cover wrapper
delegation and end-to-end PATH persistence (sourcing the env file with a
space-bearing install path).

Known limitation: an install path containing a literal single-quote yields a
malformed env-file line and falls back to the status quo (no regression);
rare on sanitized home directories.

Windows Git Bash (msys2) does not honor Node's chmod exec bit for
PATH-executing extension-less scripts, so the bare `gsd_run` command lookup
failed there even though the env-file PATH persistence was correct. The
env-file content assertions (the fix's actual cross-platform logic) still run
on every platform; only the final source-and-execute sub-step is gated to
non-win32. Global installs on Windows are covered by npm's generated bin shim.

a90c654745 fix(#891): probe non-Claude runtime homes in gsd-tools launcher shim detection (#911)
- Updated `gsd-core/workflows/_runtime-launcher.snippet.sh` with 15 new
  `elif` arms covering Hermes, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Windsurf,
  Augment, Trae, Qwen, CodeBuddy, Cline, Grok, Antigravity, OpenCode, and
  Kilo (respecting each runtime's env-var override with a `$HOME`-relative
  default).
- Re-ran `scripts/sync-runtime-launcher.cjs` to propagate the expanded
  snippet into all `gsd-core/workflows/*.md` files (~70 files).
- Manually applied the same snippet update to `commands/gsd/import.md`
  (1 occurrence) and `commands/gsd/graphify.md` (5 occurrences) — these
  are not covered by the sync script.
- Updated `tests/workflow-size-budget.test.cjs` budgets (XL/LARGE/DEFAULT
  + discuss-phase target) to account for the ~3 KB snippet expansion.
- Added regression test `tests/bug-891-non-claude-runtime-home-fallback.test.cjs`
  (6 tests: structural probe presence, ordering, behavioral HERMES_HOME
  env-var + default-path stubs, resolution order, and workflow propagation).
- Added `.changeset/891-launcher-non-claude-runtime-homes.md` (Fixed).

463cffd894 chore(#604): rename get-shit-done/ runtime directory to gsd-core/ (#615)
* chore(#604): rename get-shit-done/ runtime directory to gsd-core/

Renames the installed runtime directory `get-shit-done/` to `gsd-core/` so the
on-disk name matches the package (`@opengsd/gsd-core`), repo, and binary
(`gsd-tools`). The npm package name and binary are unchanged; npx/npm consumers
are unaffected.

Mechanical (bulk, ~90% of the diff):
- `git mv get-shit-done gsd-core`
- Swept path/identifier references across the repo via
  `perl -pe 's/get-shit-done(?!-\w)/gsd-core/g'`. The negative lookahead
  preserves the five legitimate slug variants that are NOT the directory:
  get-shit-done-{OLD,cc,classic,cli,redux} (old package/repo names).
- Build/manifest wiring: package.json (bin, files, coverage globs),
  tsconfig.build.json (outDir), ~86 .gitignore build-output entries,
  stryker.config.mjs, scan-ignore files, install.js path strings.
- Frozen (not rewritten): CHANGELOG.md history; translated docs
  (README.<locale>.md and docs/{ja-JP,ko-KR,pt-BR,zh-CN}/).

New logic (review here):
- src/installer-migrations/003-rename-get-shit-done-to-gsd-core.cts: a proper
  ADR-0008 installer migration. On upgrade it walks the legacy
  `~/.claude/get-shit-done/` tree, classifies each file via the prior install
  manifest, and emits remove-managed / backup-and-remove for managed files
  while PRESERVING unknown user-added files. Symlink-safe (skips a symlinked
  root and symlinked entries; bounds-checks every path under configDir). The
  framework rolls back on install failure. Emptied dirs may remain (framework
  has no recursive dir-removal primitive) — documented.
- scripts/lint-legacy-dir-name.cjs: CI regression guard forbidding the bare
  `get-shit-done` directory token (split token to avoid self-match; case-
  insensitive; `(?!-\w)` lookahead allows the slug variants; allowlists
  CHANGELOG, translated docs, and `gsd-allow-legacy-name` marker lines).
  Wired into the lint-tests CI job.
- Restored scripts/lint-package-identity-drift.cjs detection regexes (the
  mechanical sweep had wrongly rewritten the old-name patterns it exists to
  detect) and marked them as intentional legacy references.
- TDD tests for the migration and the guard; do.md slash-command guard regex
  tightened so a `/gsd-core/bin` path segment is not mistaken for a command;
  changeset + docs/installer-migrations.md row added.

Breaking: the installed runtime path moves `~/.claude/get-shit-done/` ->
`~/.claude/gsd-core/`. Migration 003 removes the stale legacy dir's managed
files (preserving user files) on upgrade. Users with custom hooks/configs
hardcoding the old path must update them.

* fix(#604): unsweep pending changesets + allowlist injection-example docs

CI fixes for the rename PR:
- Do not sweep pending .changeset/*.md (ephemeral release-note fragments,
  like CHANGELOG); reverted those body edits so 5 pre-existing malformed
  fragments (missing type/pr) no longer enter the PR diff and trip docs-lint.
  Allowlisted .changeset/ in the legacy-name guard accordingly.
- Allowlisted TEST-EXAMPLES.md and docs/explanation/security-model.md in
  prompt-injection-scan.sh: they contain intentional injection examples /
  security-model prose; the path-reference rewrites are kept.

CodeQL alerts on this PR are pre-existing (alert lines unchanged by this PR;
none in the new migration/guard) and are out of scope for the rename.

* fix(#604): resolve CodeQL alerts surfaced on this PR

The rename diff touched files carrying pre-existing CodeQL findings; per the
no-pre-existing-dismissal rule, fixing every surfaced alert rather than waving
them off. All behavior-preserving:

- scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs: build the config-path match from string
  .includes() instead of a RegExp over an arg-derived value (js/regex-injection).
- src/profile-output.cts: escape backslashes before pipe-escaping desc/safeName
  so the table-cell escape is complete (js/incomplete-sanitization).
- tests/{bug-2643,bug-2808,docs-parity-live-registry}: two-pass HTML-comment
  strip so a bare/unclosed `<!--` cannot survive (js/incomplete-multi-character-sanitization).
- tests/inline-plan-threshold: drop the no-op `\s`->`\s` identity replace,
  keep the meaningful POSIX-class conversion (js/identity-replacement).

Verified: build:lib green; the touched test files + ci-test-scope + profile-output
suites pass; lint:legacy-name clean.

* fix(#604): correctly resolve remaining CodeQL alerts (regex-injection + sanitization)

The prior commit's fixes for two alerts were ineffective:
- ci-test-scope.cjs js/regex-injection: the alert is the CLI-arg-derived `file`
  reaching static regex `.test(file)` calls (not the config rule). Removed ALL
  regex over file/t — startsWith/includes/=== string checks + an isWindowsHint
  helper — so there is no regex sink for the tainted value.
- js/incomplete-multi-character-sanitization (3 test files): a single
  `.replace(/<!--...-->/g,'')` can let `<!--` re-form. Replaced with a fixpoint
  loop (replace until stable) plus a final bare-opener strip.

Verified: no regex over file/t remains; ci-test-scope + the 3 test suites pass;
lint:legacy-name clean.

* fix(#604): make ci-test-scope + comment-strippers regex-free to clear CodeQL

CodeQL flags the regex PATTERNS syntactically (regex-injection on the
--files arg split; incomplete-multi-character-sanitization on the <!--...-->
replace), so loop fixes do not satisfy it. Made these paths regex-free:
- ci-test-scope.cjs splitFiles: char-by-char separator tokenizer (no /[,\\s]+/).
- 3 test files: indexOf/slice HTML-comment stripper (no .replace(/<!--/)).
Behavior preserved; ci-test-scope + the 3 suites pass; guard clean.

* fix(#604): unblock security base64 scan on the large rename diff

The security job hit its 10m timeout: base64-scan.sh choked on the binary
test fixture tests/feat-3594-parser-property-style.test.cjs (embedded NUL/
non-UTF8 bytes -> thousands of bogus blobs + "ignored null byte" warnings),
and the ~800-file rename diff is slow to scan regardless.

- scripts/base64-scan.sh: skip binary-by-content files (grep -Iq .) — they
  can't carry base64-obfuscated *text* and feeding NUL bytes through the
  per-line scanner is pathologically slow. collect_files already filtered
  binary *extensions*; this catches binary *content* in text extensions.
- .github/workflows/security-scan.yml: raise the security job timeout 10m->30m
  to accommodate very large diffs (the scan itself is unchanged).

Verified locally: scan skips the fixture, 0 "ignored null byte" warnings,
0 findings, exit 0.

The #614 runtime-launcher shim added to discuss-phase.md references
`${_GSD_RUNTIME_ROOT}/gsd-core/bin/...`. bug-3683's REF_PATTERN excluded path-y
refs only via lookbehind, but `}` precedes `/gsd-core/` in the shim, so it
mis-read the directory path as a dangling `/gsd-core` command ref (same class as
the #604 bug-2954 fix). Added a trailing `(?![\w-]*\/)` so `/gsd-<x>/...` path
segments are not treated as slash-command references.

Verified locally on BOTH platforms before pushing:

- gsd-test-runner (linux, node22 image) full suite: 0 failures
- bug-3683 + bug-2954 pass.

* fix(#604): lazily resolve findProjectRoot in gsd-tools (harden flaky CI)

CI intermittently failed state.test's gsd-tools subprocess with
"findProjectRoot is not a function" (flip-flopping across legs; not reproducible
on mac full suite, gsd-test linux full suite, test:unit, or state.test x8).
findProjectRoot is a re-export from core.cjs (sourced from project-root.cjs);
binding it via destructure at module-load can be undefined under a load-ordering
edge. Resolve it lazily at call time via a small wrapper so the lookup happens
after core.cjs is fully initialized.

Verified green on BOTH platforms before pushing:

examples (illustrative Stripe test-key / database-URL / API-key placeholders) —
not real credentials. Added it to .secretscanignore with the strict annotation,
