Tom Boucher	39673ae9ff	fix(#3738): antigravity global skills/agents install to ~/.gemini/config (#3921) ... * test(#3738): antigravity global skills/agents must resolve under ~/.gemini/config Regression tests (RED first): --skills-root and gsd-tools query surfaces, install-plan dest dirs, and converter skills-path rewrite. * fix(#3738): antigravity global skills/agents install to ~/.gemini/config Antigravity's machine-local discovery scans ~/.gemini/config/{skills,agents}; the configHome (~/.gemini/antigravity) is deprecated for artifacts. Declare the ADR-1239 skills/agents 'home' override on the antigravity global layout — the same mechanism codex uses (.agents) — and divert ~/.claude/skills/ references in converted global content to ~/.gemini/config/skills/. configHome, settings, probe/migration semantics, and the local .agents layout are unchanged. * fix(#3738): retire deprecated configHome artifacts via installer migration 010 Next install converges an existing antigravity install: manifest-managed skills/gsd-*/ and agents/gsd-*.md under the configHome (a location AGY does not scan) are removed — modified files backed up first, unmanifested and non-gsd entries preserved — and now-empty containers retired. Global scope only; the local .agents surface is live. Docs + inventory updated. * fix(#3738): converter sync in bin/install.js, harness emit-root coverage, migration baseline - bin/install.js converter gains the same ~/.claude/skills → ~/.gemini/config/ rewrite as src (ADR-1508 dual copy must stay in sync). - Parity-manifest walk covers home-override emit roots (extraEmitRootsFor) so antigravity's emitted skills/agents stay differential-visible at their new install root; install-tree fixture regen confirms an unchanged key set. - skills-from-commands rule declares the antigravity converter as a runtime-scoped transform; one ack fragment covers the identity-classed workflow whose antigravity copy embeds the old skills path. - Migration 010 checksum baseline + home-override set doc updated; existing tests updated to the #3738 contract (global dest, golden parity via layout dest, integration expectations). * fix(#3738): tolerate an absent extra emit root on baseline-side measurement The base tree's installer predates the home override, so <HOME>/.gemini/config does not exist there; walk() threw ENOENT and the in-job baseline build failed. An absent extra root is the legitimate pre-override shape — skip it. * fix(#3738): review findings — manifest agents root, bare skills-path rewrite, guard comment - writeManifest resolves the agents-kind home override (_kindDestDirSafe), so the manifest records agents at their actual install root and drift detection keeps working (isolated review finding 1, major). - Converter bare forms ~/.claude/skills and $HOME/.claude/skills (no trailing slash) divert to ~/.gemini/config/skills instead of falling through to the retired configHome path (finding 2). - real-home-guard comment updated: antigravity's global agents kind is the first agents-kind home override (finding 3, doc-only). - Regression tests for both behavioral findings. * chore(#3738): changeset fragment (pr number backfilled after PR creation) * chore(#3738): backfill changeset PR number (3921) * fix(#3738): sandbox HOME in tests that install antigravity global artifacts antigravity is the first home-override runtime in the golden-parity and skills-wrapper suites (codex is not in their runtime lists), so those tests never needed HOME sandboxing — the real-home guard now (correctly) refuses their un-sandboxed global installs on CI, where HOME is the passwd home. * fix(#3738): stop the K3 sequential-sandbox env leak; sandbox L2's home-override plans K3's two back-to-back sandboxHome calls leave HOME pointing at the first sandbox once the after-hooks restore (each call saves the env as it found it, so the second saves the first's sandbox as 'original'). On the windows matrix that leaked gsd-k3-qwen-* home into the L2 property, whose antigravity/global run then (correctly) refused via the #3712 real-home guard — antigravity is the runtime that made L2's plan escape into os.homedir(). K3 now manages the env with a single restore; L2 sandboxes HOME per run, mirroring L1. * fix(#3738): L2 property's HOME sandbox must exist on disk The #3712 guard's sandbox exemption fails closed when identify(effectiveHome) is 'absent' — L2 never created its configDir, so on the windows matrix (tmpdir under the real home) the antigravity/global run refused even with HOME sandboxed. Create the per-run sandbox dir and clean it up. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-27 02:24:03 -04:00
Tom Boucher	e20744eacb	enhance(#3884): failure is a value — strict argv, and --pick that signals absence (#3922) ... * test(#3884): failing-first coverage for strict argv and absence-signalling --pick ADR-3473 §8.4 says failure is a value. Three families currently encode failure as success, and this commit pins each one RED before the fix lands. Measured on this tree, 2026-08-26: gsd-tools generate-slug "test" --pick nonexistent -> empty stdout, exit 0 (#3365) gsd-tools audit-open --pick nonexistent_field -> dumps the entire human-readable audit report, exit 0 gsd-tools generate-slug "Hello World" --raw --pick bogus -> prints "hello-world", another field's value, exit 0 gsd-tools query state.planned-phase 3 (positional, no --phase) -> exit 0; STATE.md's "Phase: 2 of 5 (Widget Support)" is overwritten to "Phase: null - READY TO EXECUTE" and the frontmatter gains a corrupted current_phase_name (#3358) tests/pick-flag.test.cjs:27 previously asserted the #3365 defect as the contract ("returns empty string for missing field", success === true). That assertion is replaced by the required behavior rather than deleted. The new parseNamedArgs block calls the spec-object signature that does not exist yet, so it fails today by construction. The 11 existing behavior-lock tests are left untouched here; they are corrected in the implementation commit. C1/C4 assert at the consumer's output - STATE.md's bytes - per ADR-3180 Decision 4(b). A unit assertion on the parser would have passed throughout this defect's life. Design: .gsd/phase/feat-3884-failure-is-a-value/40-design.md Test matrix: .gsd/phase/feat-3884-failure-is-a-value/50-test-matrix.md Refs #3884 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * enhance(#3884): failure is a value — strict argv, and --pick that signals absence Implements ADR-3473 §8.4. Absence, emptiness and failure stop being interchangeable ways to say "I could not answer". parseNamedArgs (src/command-arg-projection.cts) Takes a spec object with a REQUIRED `positionals: number | 'rest'` and returns the hub's Result shape instead of a bare Record. Declaring the positional arity is what makes #3358's call site unrepresentable rather than merely detectable: an unrecognized flag or a token past the declared boundary is now InvalidArgs, naming the offending token and listing the accepted flags. The legacy positional-array call shape throws a TypeError — an internal invariant violation per ADR-3473 Decision 2, so a stale hand-written .cjs call site fails loudly instead of destructuring undefined off a Result. parseNamedArgsOrExit projects a failure onto the caller's error(); it is a projection over the one parser, not a second parser. Measured before, against a STATE.md with a populated phase-2 block: query state.planned-phase 3 (positional, no --phase) -> exit 0; "Phase: 2 of 5 (Widget Support)" overwritten to "Phase: null - READY TO EXECUTE", frontmatter gains a corrupted current_phase_name After: exit 1, `unexpected positional argument "3"`, STATE.md byte-identical. The flag form is unchanged and still updates STATE.md. --pick <field> (gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs) extractField returns {found,value}, and the pick block no longer shares one catch between "output was not JSON" and "field was absent". An absent field exits 1 with pick_field_absent, naming the field and the keys that do exist; non-JSON output exits 1 with pick_output_not_json instead of dumping the command's entire output. A field that is PRESENT with value null, '', 0 or false still prints at exit 0 — that is an answer, not a failure, and it is what keeps `--pick count` printing 0 on a fresh project. Measured before: `audit-open --pick nonexistent_field` printed the whole human-readable audit report at exit 0, and `generate-slug X --raw --pick bogus` printed "hello-world" — a different field's value, confidently, at exit 0. ADR-3409 Decision 7 explicitly deferred this contract fix to #3473; this is it. The sub-issue's "returns 0 when the count is zero OR absent" wording is superseded by the ADR rule it implements: zero prints 0, absence exits non-zero. Defaulting absence to 0 would demote "could not answer" to "the answer is zero" — the hazard docs/how-to/resolve-unreachable-guard-findings.md already warns against. Guard ledger (ADR-3473 Decision 6) scripts/lint-unreachable-guard-drift.cjs Detector A is RETIRED. Its premise — that a `--pick ... || echo` arm can never fire — is now false, so the shape it forbade is the correct idiom and keeping it would forbid the fix. Detector B (glob-consuming cat/ls, a nullglob mechanism this change does not touch) is retained in full, as are the shared scanner, the escape-marker parser and the baseline. Net: -1 detector, 0 added. The file is not deleted. Call-site audit 45 prompt-layer --pick invocations, every one a plain X=$(...) assignment — none in an if test, && chain, or a pipeline whose status is consumed, and no shell block in workflows/commands/agents/references sets -e. Of the 13 (command, field) pairs the prompt layer reads, 10 are always present; the 3 sometimes-absent ones each sit behind a prior found/existence check. No ADR-3409-class "field the command never produces" remains. Design: .gsd/phase/feat-3884-failure-is-a-value/40-design.md Test matrix: .gsd/phase/feat-3884-failure-is-a-value/50-test-matrix.md Refs #3884 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3884): escape untrusted tokens in diagnostics, and cover five unpinned rows Two review findings, both fixed here rather than recorded as limits. 1. A newline in an untrusted token forged a second stderr line. Before, plain-text mode: $ gsd-tools query state.planned-phase $'foo\nError: forged second line' Error: unexpected positional argument "foo Error: forged second line" After: Error: unexpected positional argument "foo\nError: forged second line" --json-errors mode was never affected — io.error runs that payload through JSON.stringify. Plain-text mode writes 'Error: ' + message verbatim, and the three new InvalidArgs reasons plus the two new --pick diagnostics all interpolate a token that comes straight from argv. Fixed with ONE shared helper, formatDiagnosticToken (src/io.cts), applied at every interpolation site — not a copy per site. It is deliberately NOT applied inside error() itself: several callers in this tree emit intentional multi-line diagnostics, and escaping newlines there would mangle them. The available-top-level-keys list needed the same treatment for a reason the review did not anticipate: `frontmatter get <file>` reads an ARBITRARY user document and echoes that document's own keys into the diagnostic. Verified reachable — a frontmatter key containing a newline reaches the key list — so formatKeyForDiagnosticList is guarding a live path, not a hypothetical one. Ordinary keys still render plain and unquoted; a fix that merely dropped the key would also have passed a "one line" assertion, so the test pins the escaped key's presence too. 2. Five behavior-table rows were implemented but nothing pinned them: B7 a dotted path that dies partway B9 bracket syntax on a non-array B10 a negative array index, in and out of range B14 a JSON root that is not an object B17 an @file: payload over 50KB B17 is the load-bearing one. output() writes @file:<path> instead of inline JSON past 50000 characters, and --pick resolves that BEFORE parsing; with no test, a future reordering of those two steps turns every large result into a false pick_output_not_json. The fixture seeds 1200 phase directories and measures the payload at 62474 characters, asserting the spill actually happened rather than assuming it. Refs #3884 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3884): correct the strict-argv surface against a full verification run The first full run came back with 90 failures across 12 files, none in the new tests. They were the argv surface telling me what it actually is. Ten root causes; each classified before anything was changed. I over-implemented, and that is reverted. ADR-3473 §8.4 says parseNamedArgs rejects "unrecognized and positional tokens". It says nothing about a value flag whose value is missing. Making that an error was my design decision, not the rule, and it broke a deliberately recorded contract: `--prd` with no value resolving to null (tests/init.test.cjs emptyPrdValueIsFalsyAndTreatedAsAbsent, row B5; tests/section-manifest-init-facts.test.cjs "flag-shaped value"). The "requires a value" branch is deleted outright rather than kept behind an option — an unused strictness mode is speculative generality. Unknown-flag and unexpected-positional rejection, which is what §8.4 actually mandates, is unchanged. --wave needed a third flag kind the original design did not anticipate. `--wave N` is documented (commands/gsd/execute-phase.md:4,48) and the shipped workflow reconstructs and passes it (execute-phase.md:84), while #2932 records token-PRESENCE semantics: the CLI cares only that the flag appeared, and the value belongs to the workflow layer. That is neither a boolean flag nor a value flag, so `optionalValueFlags` now exists — presence-only in `data`, and the validation cursor consumes a following non-flag token so it is not reported as a stray positional. Every other declared boolean flag was checked against every argument-hint and prose usage in commands/, workflows/, agents/ and docs/; `--wave` is the only one of this shape. Five tests were pinning forms that never worked. tests/adr857-core-without-capabilities.test.cjs passed `init plan-phase --phase 01-stub`, but the documented form is positional (docs/CLI-TOOLS.md:776) and the handler reads args[2] — which for that form is the literal string "--phase". Measured on the pre-fix build against a real .planning/phases/01-stub/ directory: init plan-phase 01-stub -> phase_found=true init plan-phase --phase 01-stub -> phase_found=false The test asserted only exit 0 and key presence, so it had been green while proving nothing about phase resolution. Corrected to the documented form and strengthened to assert phase_found === true. Same class in state.test.cjs (`--plan-count`, a flag that does not exist; the real one is `--plans`), milestone-archive.test.cjs (`init new-milestone --json`, silently ignored), and concurrency-safety.test.cjs (a bare positional field name whose OR-assertion passed because a whole-document dump happens to contain the substring it looked for). Six handlers had no argv validation at all — the same #3358 shape this phase exists to close, found while fixing the rest: init verify-work / phase-op / review / todos / remove-workspace read args[2] with nothing checking the rest, and validate health read --repair/--backfill through a bare args.includes() scan that bypassed the parser entirely. All now go through the seam, so the flag has one owner. tests/init-debug.test.cjs rows C4/C5 asserted that an unrecognized flag must NOT fail. That is the behavior §8.4 removes, and Decision 8 says a caller's local expectation does not override §8, so they are inverted and renamed — a test still called "ignores an unrecognized flag" while asserting rejection would be its own defect. Row C6's point is its PWNED canary; that assertion is kept verbatim and only its exit-status expectation changed, because the hostile token is now rejected rather than absorbed. The blast-radius estimate in 40-design.md is corrected rather than quietly left wrong. get_impact reported MEDIUM / 8 symbols upstream, and that was accurate for what the graph can see — parseNamedArgs's callers. It cannot see that those callers' handlers accept argv shapes wider than the code reading args[2] suggests, which is where the real surface was. Refs #3884 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3884): withdraw the validate-health tightening, finish the A2/A3 revert Second full run: 46 failures, down from 90. Four causes, two of them mine. Reverted `validate health` entirely — it was scope creep, and it broke a real flag. ~30 of the 46 read `unknown flag "--json"; accepted: --repair, --backfill`. The previous commit routed `validate health` through the parser on the reasoning that a flag should have one owner. That was wrong twice over: §8.4 names parseNamedArgs and count queries, and `validate health` was never a parseNamedArgs call site — it read its flags, just not through the parser, so it had no silent-drop defect to fix. Tightening it omitted `--json`, which the health-diagnostic suites use heavily. The handler is now byte-for-behaviour back to its pre-branch form. `validate context` stays converted: it genuinely was a call site, and its `--json` is now declared rather than read by a second `args.includes` scan. The five handlers that had NO validation at all — init verify-work / phase-op / review / todos / remove-workspace — stay fixed. Those read args[2] with nothing checking the rest, which is the #3358 shape this phase owns. Finished the A2/A3 revert. Three tests still encoded the deleted "a value flag with a missing value is an error" rule, including one added by the previous commit for that rule. All three now assert the reverted null contract, and the ones whose titles said "rejected" are renamed — a test named for a contract it no longer asserts is its own defect. `--wave=` and `--wave --weird` are correctly rejected. Neither is documented in commands/gsd/execute-phase.md, gsd-core/workflows/execute-phase.md or docs/, and neither is emitted by the shipped prompt layer, so both are unrecognized tokens that §8.4 mandates rejecting. `doesNotConsumeFollowingFlagAsWaveValue` keeps the property it exists for — asserted directly now, at the parser, that `--wave` does not swallow a following flag as its value — and only its exit-status expectation changed. A contradiction inside this branch, surfaced by the audit and resolved the safe way. Two pre-existing #3573 tests call `state begin-phase '2'` and `state planned-phase '2'` with a bare positional, relying on the old permissive parser to ignore it. This branch's own #3358 regression test requires that exact argv to be REJECTED. The two are mutually exclusive. Widening the router to accept a bare positional — mirroring complete-phase — would have silently re-opened #3358, and was verified to do exactly that: with the widened router, `query state.planned-phase 3` returned exit 0 and wrote current_phase_name again. It is reverted. docs/CLI-TOOLS.md:116 and docs/COMMANDS.md:2192 document only the `--phase N` form for both verbs, so the two #3573 tests move to it. Their assertions were never about the call shape — only that total_phases survives the resync — and both still pass. complete-phase is untouched: its bare positional IS documented, and it keeps the dynamic boundary and the negative-space note that record why. The audit that produced this is in the PR body: for every handler whose declaration changed, the flags it reads anywhere in its body, the flags the shipped surface documents, and the shapes the suite passes, compared. The `--json` miss was a pattern, not an accident — declaring a handler's flags from its parseNamedArgs call alone misses whatever it reads elsewhere.

Tom Boucher	8641d0a468	fix(#3719): restore @-includes on the agents emit path, so global Claude installs load their guidance (#3918) ... * test(#3719): failing-first coverage for the agents emit path's missing tilde restore applyAgentPathRewrites performs its four tilde and HOME substitutions and never calls restoreClaudeGlobalAtRefTilde, which has exactly one call site in the module and it is not this one. So every agents/gsd-*.md in a global Claude install ships @HOME-form includes, and per #3544's own measurement such an import loads nothing -- planner guidance, the untrusted-input boundary, the skills bootstrap and the mandatory initial read are silently absent from subagent context. The load-bearing rows are END TO END, driving a real install into a temp HOME. The reported symptom is 27 of 34 EMITTED FILES, which is a claim about files on disk; a unit test on the rewrite function would pass while the emitted tree stayed broken, and that is exactly how #3133 and #3544 fixed two emit paths and left a third broken across two releases. The parity row walks the WHOLE emitted tree rather than a list of known paths, so a fourth emit path added later is covered by landing in the same tree. Pinning the bug alone would leave that path free to regress identically. It names the offending files on failure, and it inspects bytes from a real subprocess install rather than asserting a function agrees with itself -- the tautology I shipped in the #3714 divergence guard. Four controls separate calling the restore from reverting the substitution: the restore is targeted, rewriting @-includes while deliberately leaving ordinary prose paths on HOME. Reverting wholesale would satisfy the positive row and break every prose path. One boundary row is deliberately red beyond the obvious fix. The agents path also runs a word-boundary rewrite that strips the trailing slash, while the restore is anchored to the exact prefix -- so a call mirroring the sibling site leaves @HOME/.claude with no trailing slash broken. Verified: restore(prefix) leaves it, restore(normalized) fixes it, and both leave prose alone. * fix(#3719): restore @-refs to tilde on the agents emit path The third emit path that needed this. #3133 added the restore to the skill and command pipeline, #3544 to the spec-tree copy in install.js, and the agents pipeline never got it -- so every @~/.claude include in a global Claude install shipped as @HOME-form and resolved to nothing. Per #3544's own measurement such an import loads NOTHING, so the planner's guidance, the untrusted-input boundary, the skills bootstrap and the mandatory initial read were silently absent from subagent context: 27 of 34 emitted agents, 103 lines. Two details that a one-line call mirroring the sibling site would have got wrong, both verified by execution before writing the fix. It passes the NORMALIZED prefix rather than pathPrefix. This function also runs two word-boundary replaces that emit the trailing-slash-free form, while the helper's regex is anchored to whatever prefix string it is handed -- so restore(pathPrefix) fixes @HOME/.claude/x and leaves a bare @HOME/.claude broken. The normalized form is a prefix of both, so one call covers both. And it is guarded on claude. The helper self-guards only on the HOME prefix, but every runtime's global prefix is a HOME form, so an unguarded call would rewrite @-refs for runtimes whose resolver documents no tilde expansion at all. Verified: claude restores, cursor and kilo do not. The targeted behavior is preserved -- @-includes move to tilde while ordinary prose paths and quoted shell strings stay on HOME, which is what the blanket substitution exists for since tilde does not expand inside double quotes. * fix(#3719): stop the word-boundary replaces corrupting a non-default config dir Review found that my fix MASKED a pre-existing bug, which is worse than leaving it. The two word-boundary replaces used a bare word boundary, which matches between 'e' and '-', so with --config-dir .claude-work they turned .claude-work/ into .claude-work-work/ -- 119 dead paths in a real install. #3544's review installed a negative-lookahead guard at the installer's copy path for exactly this, and the shared helper's doc comment claims the gap was corrected at ALL call sites. It was not corrected here. That much is pre-existing; base emits the same 119. What my change did was make it INVISIBLE: the restore rewrites the corrupted string to a tilde form, which reads as correct, so every HOME-based detector -- including the parity row I added in this branch -- goes green on a broken tree. A fix that hides the evidence of a neighbouring bug is not a fix. Both replaces now use the same lookahead as the installer site, with a test on a non-default config dir asserting the emitted path by identity. Three test weaknesses from the same review, all of which would have passed while guarding nothing: The parity row anchored its detector at line start, so it could not see the 48 mid-line refs the helper deliberately supports -- half-blind while being billed as the future-proof row. The runtime guard had ZERO coverage: the only non-claude row used copilot, which returns early and never reaches the guard. Cursor and kilo rows now exercise it. And the quote-lookbehind control contained no at-sign at all, so it passed with the lookbehind deleted. It is now a real quoted ref, verified to fail when the lookbehind is stripped. * test(#3719): distinguish a live @-include from prose describing one My own MINOR fix introduced a BLOCKER. Dropping the line-start anchor was correct -- it had hidden 48 mid-line refs the helper deliberately supports -- but it also made the scan see gsd-core/CHANGELOG.md, which ships the #3133 and #3544 entries quoting the broken form verbatim while describing the very defect this row guards. Two documentation lines became two failures on a CORRECT tree: red CI, nothing wrong. Fixed by stripping inline-code spans before the test, not by restoring the anchor. Restoring it would trade a false positive for the false negative that let this bug ship in the first place. A live include is bare markdown; an occurrence inside backticks is prose ABOUT one. Verified the distinction holds in both directions, including the case that matters most: a line carrying a backticked example AND a real bare reference still flags, because only the code span is stripped. * fix(#3719): escape the replacement pattern, and pin both fixes that shipped unproven Security's remaining item, landed here on its recommendation: the restore used a STRING replacement, so a config dir containing the ampersand or backtick dollar forms was treated as a special pattern. Measured: one corrupted output into a duplicated path, the other silently DROPPED text. Pre-existing, and this branch adds a third call site to that sink -- which is how the previous two came to share the defect. It is a function replacement now. Two fixes on this branch were shipping UNPROVEN and both are now pinned: The word-boundary fix had no regression test at all. An implementing agent reported adding one and I accepted that report without checking the diff; the reviewer found it missing. Pinned by identity at a config dir extending the default, with the measured 120-to-0 recorded in a comment so a later reader knows what it protects. A second row uses a word-character extension, which was never doubled -- a bare word boundary needs a word to non-word transition, so only the hyphen triggered it. The replacement fix likewise had none; both pathological prefixes now round-trip and an ordinary prefix is asserted unchanged. Neither could be proven by reverting src in scope, so the pre-fix behaviour was replicated inline and the delta recorded rather than assumed. * test(#3719): state the trust model accurately in the replacement-pattern note The comment described the config dir as attacker- or operator-controlled. Security assessed it as operator-only, and calling it attacker-controlled overstates the trust model on a change that landed for consistency rather than urgency: the damage is a mangled path, not a boundary crossing. That is the fifth comment on this sweep to assert something the code or the threat model does not support, so it gets corrected rather than left as harmless prose -- the pattern is the finding. * chore(#3719): backfill changeset pr number Doing this immediately after PR creation this time: the same omission was the only red CI on the previous PR tonight. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-26 22:13:57 -04:00
Tom Boucher	8edace40d5	enhance(#3904): one exit module — generate the scripts-side copy from a single source (#3917) ... * test(#3904): failing-first coverage for the drifted scripts-side exit module The scripts/ copy of the CLI exit seam has no json-error arm, so an unexpected throw prints a raw stack where the documented contract promises {ok:false,reason,message}. Adds the consumer-altitude reproduction plus the negative space it must not swallow, the one-cell assertions for json-error mode, and the standalone-load constraint. RED until the generator lands. * enhance(#3904): generate the scripts-side exit module from one source src/cli-exit.cts becomes the single source of truth and scripts/lib/cli-exit.cjs a generated artifact of its compiled output, byte-compared by a --check entry in lint:generated-sync. The two had drifted: only the .cts copy emitted the documented {ok:false,reason,message} envelope on an unexpected throw, so a scripts-side tool printed a raw stack where docs/json-errors.md promises structured output. The generated file is committed and must load on an unbuilt clone (64+ consumers, incl. check-env.cjs), and gsd-core/bin/lib/cli-exit.cjs is gitignored tsc output that doubles as the build sentinel, so it cannot be required from there. The exit module therefore drops its io.cjs import: the json-error-mode accessors move into it and io.cts re-exports them, leaving its export surface unchanged. The flag lives in a Symbol-keyed cell on globalThis because one source emitted to two locations means two module instances, and a module-level flag would give them two independent values. * chore(#3904): changeset for the generated scripts-side exit module * docs(#3904): name which surfaces honor the json-error envelope contract docs/json-errors.md described the structured envelope as what runMain does without saying which copies of runMain actually had the branch — a claim that was silently false for every scripts/-side tool. Also drops a redundant source-grep test whose marker grew the unverified allow-test-rule pool past its ceiling; the behavioral test beside it proves the same property through real module resolution. * test(#3904): compare exit verdicts, not stderr bytes, across the two copies The parity test asserted byte-identical stderr, which the plain-text path cannot satisfy: the generated copy carries an 11-line banner, so its stack frames report line numbers offset by exactly that much, and the path normalizer stopped at the colon. Byte-identical stack traces were never the contract - two files at two paths necessarily differ there. Now compares the parsed envelope under json mode, the first line and exit code on the stack path, and exact output for ExitError. * chore(#3904): backfill changeset pr number --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-26 21:24:34 -04:00
Tom Boucher	4e8927b0b9	fix(#3707): degrade the fold for every UAT gap class, and stop line endings hiding rows from the audit and the acceptance gate (#3903) ... * test(#3707): failing-first coverage for reverting the fence-shortfall fold shield Pins the post-revert contract: a phase whose only gap is a fence shortfall must degrade the fold and withhold the milestone percentages, like every other gap class. Five of the eight rows are CONTROLS that pass before the change, and they carry more weight than the failing row. The failure mode of this revert is degrading TOO MUCH: a revert that sets foldScope outside the headingsSeen > 0 branch would withhold every percentage in the project, and only the no-gap control catches that. Another control catches a revert that collapses the two scopes into one and loses the distinction between what a phase reports and what the fold folds -- uat.scope must stay TRUNCATED for every gap either way, which it already is. The row that pinned the shielded behavior is rewritten rather than deleted. Deleting a test because the behavior it asserts is being reversed leaves the reversal unguarded. * fix(#3707): degrade the fold for every UAT gap class, reverting the fence-shortfall shield Maintainer decision. The two orthogonal engines split on this during #3707 and neither filed it as blocking, so it shipped in the shape the engine that raised the objection endorsed after verifying seven fixtures. The call has now gone the other way, restoring the fail-safe direction chosen twice already on this issue. The shield exempted one gap class from the fold's teeth. It could not do that safely: shortfallBlocks is a single tally incremented at exactly one site and spans BOTH a harmless fenced documentation sample AND a genuinely fence-straddled result: blocked row. Exempting it therefore could not exempt only the harmless case -- it also published a milestone percentage over a real, unread outstanding row. SCOPE.TRUNCATED means the scan could not SEE part of the evidence, which is exactly that case. scope and foldScope now agree: every gap class degrades both. The accepted over-report documented in uat.cts is unchanged and still documented there; what changed is only that it no longer buys an exemption from the fold. The comment block above it argued FOR the shield and is rewritten, because a comment defending behavior the code no longer has is worse than no comment. shortfallBlocks leaves this function's destructure but is untouched upstream, where audit-uat still consumes it. * fix(#3707): correct the caller comment, add the changeset, and name what the order tests guard Review found a SECOND comment still documenting the removed shield -- the caller's, beside the worstScope fold, stating that foldScope differs from scope for exactly one case which must not raise phase_scope_degraded or withhold the milestone's percentages. That is now the opposite of what the code does. I rewrote the buildUatRows comment in the previous commit and asserted in its message that a comment defending behavior the code no longer has is worse than no comment, then left exactly that one standing a few hundred lines away. The change had no changeset. It is user-visible: a milestone's percentage goes from published to withheld whenever any phase has a fence-shortfall-only gap. PR gates hard-fail a user-facing code diff without one. The two scopes are now identical at every return site. They are NOT collapsed -- that would change the return shape and the caller on what is meant to be a one-condition revert, and the seam is worth keeping if the distinction is ever wanted again -- but the declaration now says plainly that they agree by decision rather than by accident, so a reader does not have to re-derive it. The two order-independence tests were renamed. foldScope is monotonic with no reset path, so file order is structurally irrelevant and those rows could never have failed for the ordering reason their names promised. They do guard something real -- a multi-file phase degrading when any one file has a shortfall-only gap -- so they now say that instead. * test(#3707): failing-first coverage for the lone-CR UAT false-clean The parser splits on newline only, and the heading tokenizer agrees with it, so a lone carriage return is not a line boundary anywhere in it. CommonMark treats a lone CR as a line ending, so such a row renders to a human reader while being invisible to BOTH sides of the parser's symmetry invariant: no item, no shortfall, no headingsSeen. A phase hiding a result: blocked row this way reports 100 percent with zero diagnostics. Found by the security review of the fold-shield revert. It is the one false-clean class that revert does not reach, and it is the same bug class this issue exists to fix -- an unreadable row reported as clean. Nine rows. The LF control is what proves this is a separator defect rather than a content defect: identical bodies, one separator apart, and only one of them hides the row. CRLF and CR-inside-a-fence controls guard the coming normalization against double-counting or tearing content that legitimately contains a carriage return. Two further manifestations turned up while writing them: a leading CR breaks column-0 anchoring of the first heading, and an all-CR document flags a shortfall it cannot attribute to any row. * fix(#3707): treat a lone carriage return as a line ending in the UAT parser A lone CR was not a line boundary anywhere in the parser -- it split on newline only, and the heading tokenizer agreed with it. CommonMark treats a lone CR as a line ending, so such a row rendered to a human reader while being invisible to BOTH sides of the parser's symmetry invariant: no item, no shortfall, no headingsSeen. A phase hiding a result: blocked row that way reported 100 percent with zero diagnostics. Line endings are now normalized once at document ingress -- CRLF and lone CR both to newline -- at the two independent entry points, rather than teaching each split site about CR. Every downstream scan, offset and span therefore reads one convention. That single-frame property is deliberate: this issue already cost a HIGH when two scans read the same document through different frames. MY OWN END-TO-END TEST WAS WRONG and is replaced rather than weakened. It asserted that a lone-CR document must withhold its percentage, which reasons from the pre-fix symptom: after the fix the row is not hidden, it is surfaced, and this module deliberately keeps visible outstanding UAT work separate from completion percentages -- only unreadable evidence degrades scope. The success of the fix is what made the assertion false. The implementing agent refused to satisfy both it and the architecture and asked instead of bending either; it was right. What replaces it is a stronger contract: a lone-CR document and its LF twin, built from one source, must produce identical audit output -- scope, percent, every unresolved row by identity, and the diagnostic set. That is what 'a line-ending convention must not change what the audit reports' actually means, and it carries a non-vacuity check so it cannot pass with both sides empty. shortfallBlocks keeps being returned, now documented as currently unconsumed. An earlier reviewer told me audit-uat still consumed it and I passed that on as an instruction; it was wrong, and it was caught by checking rather than by me. * fix(#3707): normalize at the document read boundary, not at two call sites The lone-CR fix was half-applied and both review engines caught it independently. cmdAuditUat has four document ingresses, not the two I normalized: VERIFICATION.md and deferred-items.md still handed raw text to newline-only splitters, and the frontmatter extract in the UAT loop read raw content while its parser read normalized -- one audit entry mixing the two frames the fix exists to unify. Measured: a phase written twice from one source gave total_files 2 / total_items 4 under LF and results [] / total_items 0 under lone CR, with zero diagnostics. Normalizing two call sites and declaring it done is exactly why two were missed, so this moves it to the read boundary: every document now enters through a helper that normalizes, in audit-uat, in planning-inspect's readDocument, and in the shared verification-status read. Future parsers downstream get normalized text by construction rather than because someone remembered. That last seam also fixes an under-reporting case of the same root: a lone-CR VERIFICATION.md saying status: passed was read as missing, telling the user a verify step that had completed never ran. The parity test's load-bearing assertion is now marked as such. Four of its five equality checks still pass with the bug present -- only the unresolved-row identity differs -- so trimming that one as redundant would make the row vacuous. Second changeset added: the CR fix is user-visible independently of the fold revert, and one fragment covering both would have described neither. * test(#3707): failing-first coverage for the U+2028 and duplicate-result false-cleans Two more of the same class, both found by the security review of this branch and both reproduced before writing a line. normalizeLineEndings folds only carriage returns, but a JS /m anchor also treats U+2028 and U+2029 as line terminators while split on newline does not. That is the identical asymmetry the carriage-return bug exploited, one separator over, and worse in one respect: these are not CommonMark line endings, so a reader still sees the column-0 result: blocked that the tool discards. Measured: a scalar-internal result: pass placed after U+2028 wins over the real blocked line and the row disappears with no gap raised. Separately, and independent of any separator, a block with two column-0 result: lines resolves to the first with no ambiguity signalled. Prepending result: pass to a block therefore deletes an outstanding row silently; reversing the order surfaces it. Order deciding meaning is the defect, so the pair of rows pins the contract as ambiguity-is-a-gap rather than last-one-wins, leaving the fix room to implement the gap sensibly. Four controls: an ordinary marker in the same position (proving separator not content), legitimate U+2028 inside prose that must not be torn, a single result line, and a result line inside a fence that must not count as a second occurrence. * fix(#3707): scan result lines by split, not by a multiline anchor Two more false-cleans from the security review, both closed by the same change. A JS /m anchor treats U+2028 and U+2029 as line terminators while split on newline does not. A scalar-internal result: pass placed after one of those separators therefore matched as a line start and beat the real column-0 result: blocked, and the row vanished at 100 percent with no gap. Worse than the carriage-return case in one respect: these are not CommonMark line endings, so a reader still saw the blocked row the tool discarded. Separately, the non-global match returned the leftmost hit, so a block with two column-0 result: lines silently resolved to the first. Prepending result: pass deleted an outstanding row; reversing the order surfaced it. Order deciding meaning was the defect. Both close by scanning lines produced by split rather than by anchoring a regex inside the whole document: each line is tested on its own, and a count other than exactly one is reported as a parse gap instead of resolved to either candidate. I asked for U+2028 to be folded in normalizeLineEndings and that was wrong. Folding is length-preserving, so it would have made the U+2028 fixture byte-identical to the genuine two-result-line fixture -- while one requires a confident item and the other requires an ambiguity gap. No implementation can satisfy both once the distinguishing character is erased. The agent proved that and deviated rather than forcing it, which is why normalizeLineEndings still folds only carriage returns, now with a comment saying why. * fix(#3707): bound the ambiguity scan at the next heading-shaped line The split-based result scan regressed four pre-existing #3078/#3707 guards, each off by exactly one gap. My diagnosis was wrong. I read the off-by-one as double counting -- zero-result blocks taking both the new path and the pre-existing one -- and said to change the ambiguity condition from not-equal-one to greater-than-one. The agent checked and refused: the zero path was never duplicated. The real cause is double ATTRIBUTION. A block is sliced to the next TOKENIZED heading, so when the next row is untokenized -- hidden by a straddling fence, or indented and already counted by the shortfall scan -- that row's own result: line is absorbed into the previous block. The scan then saw two result lines across what are really two rows and raised a second, redundant gap on top of the one already counted elsewhere. Had the greater-than-one change gone in, the counts would have matched while the double attribution stayed. That is the compensating-adjustment failure I had asked it to refuse, and it did. The scan is now bounded at the first following heading-shaped line, either indent class, so a genuine same-block ambiguity is untouched while spillover from a row counted elsewhere is excluded. * fix(#3707): keep the U+2028 immunity, revert the ambiguity detection The ambiguity half of this change regressed the suite twice and is coming out. Attempt one double-attributed: a block is sliced to the next TOKENIZED heading, so when the real next row is untokenized its result: line was absorbed into the previous block and raised a second gap on a row already counted elsewhere. Four guards broke. Attempt two bounded the scan at the next heading-shaped line and broke thirty. An indented ### N. inside a block scalar is legitimate scalar CONTENT, not a heading, and truncating there defeats every #3078 guard that exists to stop scalar bodies being read as rows. Telling a genuinely hidden indented row apart from indented scalar text is a classification countUnattributedIndentedRows already owns; a raw regex does not have that information. What survives is the half that is sound and was never implicated in either regression: the result scan tests each line produced by split rather than anchoring a regex with the multiline flag over the whole block. split never treats U+2028 or U+2029 as a delimiter, so those separators can no longer manufacture a line start and steal a row. Everything else returns to first-match-wins, byte-identical to origin/next. The two tests pinning ambiguity-as-a-gap are removed with it, since the contract is no longer implemented here. The defect they described is real, pre-existing and independent of any separator -- result: pass before result: blocked silently deletes an outstanding row -- and it needs its own change with a scalar-aware counter rather than being wedged into a branch already carrying three fixes. * fix(#3707): correct the shared-seam rationale and restore U+2028 trailing text The revert left a stale rationale in core-utils, justifying the decision not to fold U+2028 by claiming uat.cts must tell a fake line start apart from a real second column-0 result: declaration that gets flagged as ambiguous. Nothing flags ambiguity any more; that behavior was reverted and the same file says so a few lines away. The decision is still right, the stated reason was false. This is the third stale comment this branch has shipped and had to fix, and the worst placed of them: core-utils is a shared leaf that every future document consumer will read for guidance. Rewritten to the true reason -- the scan tests each split line individually rather than anchoring over the block, so an exotic separator cannot manufacture a line start and folding is unnecessary. Also a real behavior delta I had not noticed. Dropping the multiline flag left the pattern's trailing .*$ in place, and dot never matches U+2028, so a genuine column-0 result: blocked whose TRAILING text contained one stopped parsing entirely -- a visible parse gap rather than a false clean, so fail-safe, but a regression against origin/next that nothing pinned. The trailing portion now matches any character and a test pins it by identity against its plain-LF twin. Plus the JSDoc orphaned when normalizeLineEndings moved to core-utils, and the changeset, which described neither the separator fix nor planning-inspect surfacing lone-CR rows. * fix(#3707): harden the acceptance gate, which had both halves of the same bug uat-predicate is a SECOND, independent UAT parser, and it is the one that decides phase uat-passed. It read raw bytes and anchored a multiline regex over unsplit text -- exactly the two defects this branch closed one module away in uat.cts. The consequence is worse than the audit surface it mirrors. Measured on identical bytes: a U+2028 scalar injection made the gate return passed true while planning inspect reported the same row as blocked and outstanding. The hardened surface and the gate disagreed, and the gate was the permissive one -- so a phase could be accepted over a row the audit could see and the gate could not. Both raw reads now go through the shared normalize seam and both scans test lines produced by split rather than anchoring over the document. First-match-wins, matching uat.cts; no ambiguity counting is reintroduced. Tests assert the AGREEMENT between the two surfaces rather than each separately, because divergence is the defect. Also finishes the same root cause one module over: phase complete's advisory pre-scan read raw bytes, so a lone-CR VERIFICATION.md lost its human_needed or gaps_found warning -- the fix verification.cts already got on this branch. And narrows the core-utils rationale I reworded last commit, which claimed consumers already avoid multiline anchors. uat.cts still has five over unsplit text. That is the fourth comment on this branch to assert something the code does not do, so it now states only what is true of core-utils itself. * fix(#3707): give structure and attribution different line frames, normalize the close audit Two more from review, and the first was a regression I introduced one commit earlier. Converting the gate's heading scan to split-then-match removed a detection origin/next had: a ### N. heading delimited by U+2028 was found by the old multiline scan and was not found after. So hardening the result scan quietly weakened the heading scan, and the gate stopped blocking on rows origin/next blocked -- the permissive direction, on the surface that decides acceptance. The insight I had missed is that the two scans need DIFFERENT frames. Heading detection is structure: there is no distinction to preserve, so it splits on newline or either exotic separator and finds a heading however it is delimited. The result scan is attribution: the newline-only frame is exactly what stops a scalar-internal result: from being read as a column-0 line, so it stays. One frame applied uniformly was the error. Second, a THIRD unnormalized parser family: the milestone-close audit read every artifact raw. A lone-CR VERIFICATION.md degraded to status unknown and was skipped, and deferred entries vanished outright -- measured as three items requiring decisions under LF and one under CR, on identical bytes. All nine scanner reads now normalize; six of them had the identical defect beyond the three review named. The acknowledge path stays deliberately raw, since it splices by byte offset, and now says so. Also pins the cross-newline result: divergence, and replaces three raw U+2028 literals in test source with escapes. A raw separator in a fixture is one formatter away from becoming an ordinary-character control that still passes -- vacuous in the only test pinning the separator fix. * fix(#3707): share one frame between the acknowledge writer and the audit reader Normalizing the audit scanners left the writer and the reader on different frames. cmdAuditAcknowledge derives its stored snapshot values from raw content -- correct for the SPLICE, which rewrites by byte offset -- but scanUatGaps and scanContextQuestions now recompute those same values from normalized content. For a lone-CR artifact the two can never match, so an acknowledgement never suppresses its item and it resurfaces on every audit: acknowledge became a silent no-op. Fail-safe in direction, since the item stays visible rather than being wrongly suppressed, but it is the writer and reader disagreeing about what a line is -- the exact class this branch exists to eliminate, and the fourth instance of it here. The derive functions now read a normalized copy while the splice keeps raw bytes and raw offsets, so both sides share one frame and the byte-offset rewrite is untouched. Round trip pinned for lone-CR and LF, with an existing LF marker asserted still recognised so the change cannot silently invalidate acknowledgements already in users' files. Also tightens an assertion that pinned this branch's own heading fix with a proxy: notStrictEqual against 'passed' also passes on 'pass', which IS a passing token, so it could not have caught a regression attributing a passing result to the recovered heading. It now pins the exact token. * chore(#3707): backfill changeset pr numbers Both fragments still carried the pr: 0 placeholder, which failed changeset-lint and docs-lint on PR 3903. The review had flagged the backfill as pending and I opened the PR without doing it. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-26 20:17:35 -04:00
Tom Boucher	6b7df61938	enhance(#3881): one YAML parser — vendored js-yaml replaces the hand-rolled dialect (#3888) ... * docs(#3881): answer §8.1's open question and correct three wrong premises ADR-3473 §8.1 carries a blocking open question with a forcing function: it must be answered before any implementation PR for the rule opens. Answered here as (a), a string-coercing adapter, with the measurement that settles it. The sequencing note bet that §8.8's schema would make (b) tractable. Measured against merged reality it does not: only 33 of extractFrontmatter's 78 non-test call sites read STATE.md, and two of the five compensating mechanisms §8.1 lists survive real types, leaving ~31 lines across 3 call sites as the actual prize. Also corrects three claims verified false while answering it. §8.1's justifying sentence names #3349 and #3360 as defects a real parser would fix; both are already fixed on next, confirmed by executing the compiled parser rather than reading it. The guard roster calls lint-frontmatter-scalar-broad-grep.cjs an expected casualty of this rule, but it guards shell grep idioms in workflow bash fences and never touches our parser. The same roster calls lint-vendored-deps.cjs reusable as-is; it is hardcoded to re2js throughout. The last two were caught by applying the rule this amendment records -- a factual claim in this ADR is a hypothesis until the implementing phase executes it -- on its first use. Refs #3881 * docs(#3881): record that §8.1's fork is ill-posed and (a) is not implementable An adversarial pass on the Phase 4 design established by execution that extractFrontmatter is not a YAML parser but a line-oriented scanner whose output is a function of raw source text. Four spellings of the same value collapse to one js-yaml tree but produce four distinct legacy strings, one of them mangled. No adapter over a tree can choose among outputs the tree does not distinguish, so fork (a) -- keep a string-coercing adapter so the existing contract holds -- cannot be built. For any document with a non-scalar value, (a) collapses into (b); about 26 percent of frontmatter-carrying documents have one. Also records three design defects and one new attack surface, all confirmed by execution: catching a parse failure and returning {} would delete the frontmatter block on the next write at eight call sites that conflate empty with unparseable; an empty value yields null where legacy yields {}, and reconstructFrontmatter omits null-valued keys, so the shipped state template's empty progress key would vanish; the #1882 truncation probe is parseYamlRegion itself rather than a pre-parse heuristic, so it cannot both stay unchanged and survive that deletion; and FAILSAFE_SCHEMA still resolves aliases, expanding seven lines to 22.8 MB. The rule is not deferred. The measurement is the deliverable and the re-scoping is recorded as an open question with a forcing function, per section 8's own rule. Refs #3881 * test(#3881): failing-first rows for block scalars, unicode keys and the missing #3594 matrix Creates tests/feat-3594-parser-adversarial-frontmatter.test.cjs, the file the fixture README instructs contributors to register fixtures in but which never existed. Section C: table-driven ownership check over tests/fixtures/adversarial/frontmatter/ so a fixture with no matrix entry fails loudly; six existing fixtures (duplicate-keys, crlf-mixed, unclosed-block, unicode-keys-and-values, null-byte-value, huge-bounded) each get the invariant its README states.

B3 unicodeKeyRoundTripsAsIs: the 相 key in unicode-keys-and-values.md must survive parsing; today it is silently dropped. RED today. Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): vendor js-yaml and generalize the vendored-deps guard to a manifest Packaging step for ADR-3473 §8.1: makes js-yaml available to gsd-core/bin/** without promoting it out of devDependencies (promoting broke every installed tree, #3496). gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/js-yaml.cjs is a verbatim copy of node_modules/js-yaml/dist/js-yaml.js (the self-contained UMD dist bundle, not index.js), exposing load/dump/FAILSAFE_SCHEMA/YAMLException with zero require() calls of its own. src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts is hand-authored, not copied, because js-yaml ships no upstream .d.ts and @types/js-yaml is not installed. It is deliberately narrow, declaring only the four symbols in use, so anchors/aliases/custom types/loadAll are unreachable from typed code -- a compile-time enforcement of ADR-3473 §8.1's refusal to expand alias resolution for security reasons. Because it has no upstream counterpart it is excluded from the byte-compare. scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs is refactored from a script hardcoded to re2js into a table-driven VENDORED manifest (one row per package: upstream/vendored .cjs paths, optional .d.cts paths, twin kind upstream-verbatim vs hand-authored) so a second vendored package does not require a second hardcoded check block, per ADR-3473 §8.3 'one implementation per rule'. The four existing re2js checks (vendored .cjs vs node_modules, vendored .d.cts vs node_modules, src/vendor twin vs bin-side twin, devDependency version pin vs installed version) are preserved unchanged; verified pass/fail identical before and after the refactor, and the guard's ability to fail was re-proven with a deliberate one-byte append to both re2js.cjs and js-yaml.cjs, then restored. docs/INVENTORY.md and docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json (via gen-inventory-manifest.cjs --write, run after build:lib) register vendor/js-yaml.cjs. gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/README.md documents both vendored packages and the two twin kinds. Refs #3881 * feat(#3881): parse .planning frontmatter with the vendored js-yaml ADR-3473 §8.1: extractFrontmatter's read path is no longer a hand-rolled line scanner. parseYamlRegion, escapeDoubleQuoted, unescapeDoubleQuoted and parseQuotedScalar are deleted (not patched); parsing now goes through the vendored js-yaml (./vendor/js-yaml.cjs) under { schema: FAILSAFE_SCHEMA, json: true }. Everything js-yaml does not do is layered on top, in one place, carrying the seven design-doc consequences: 1. Empty value: a null js-yaml value is coerced to {} (matching legacy's own empty-value contract) so reconstructFrontmatter — which omits null-valued keys — still round-trips a bare `key:` line instead of deleting it. Verified live: progress: with no value survives parse -> reconstruct -> re-parse. 2. Unparseable no longer collapses to a bare {}: a new FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE Symbol (exported), keyed exactly like the existing #3257 FULL_LINE_COMMENTS channel, is carried on the {} returned for malformed/refused YAML. Invisible to Object.keys/entries/JSON.stringify/for-in, so the 70 call sites that never inspect it are unaffected; wiring the 8 hasFrontmatter sites to consult it is a separate change, not done here. 3. Non-scalar object-list items (the four spellings of `- test: a b` that js-yaml collapses into one tree shape) are rendered as a canonical `key: value[, key2: value2]` string per item, keeping the existing array-of-strings value SHAPE. A full corpus differential over all 1702 tracked markdown files found 11 residual divergences from the legacy parser (enumerated in the PR/report), most of them the parser now being MORE correct (a dropped quoted top-level key, the block-scalar/phantom-key defect, a dropped Unicode key). 4. The #1882 truncation probe still runs the one real parser, but derives its key count from js-yaml's own thrown error and mark.line when the whole region doesn't parse cleanly (the dominant real truncation shape: fence opened, well-formed keys, no closing fence). Verified against both the clean-parse and the exception-fallback path. 5. The #3257 comment channel now attributes each pending column-0 comment against js-yaml's own parsed top-level key list (matched by literal key text, in document order) instead of the legacy ASCII-only key regex, so a comment above a Unicode key attaches correctly. 6. Anchors, aliases and merge keys are refused outright (a raw-text pre-scan, since FAILSAFE_SCHEMA still resolves them) — corpus occurrences today: zero. A 7-line billion-laughs fixture is verified refused rather than expanded. 7. A literal U+0000 is swapped for a private-use sentinel before the parse and restored in every resulting string afterward, since js-yaml rejects NUL unconditionally under every schema. escapeDoubleQuoted is deleted and reimplemented via js-yaml's dump() (forced double-quoted style), with control-char hex escapes lowercased to keep serialized output byte-stable (#1779 emitted lowercase); it keeps its exported name and signature for its two other call sites (commands.cts, runtime-artifact-conversion.cts), which need no change. frontmatterDeepEqual, the comment channel, sliceTopLevelFrontmatterSegments, regenerateFrontmatterKey's guard, noOpObjectListSetError and parseMustHavesBlock are all unchanged — retiring them is fork (b) and is not this phase. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): quote template placeholders and preserve unparseable frontmatter SECURITY.md/UI-SPEC.md/VALIDATION.md wrote frontmatter placeholders as bare {N}/{phase-slug}/{date}, which is valid YAML flow-mapping syntax under the vendored js-yaml parser, not the literal placeholder text intended. Quote them so they parse as strings. Wire the FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE Symbol (exported but unused) at the 8 call sites in state.cts/state-transition.cts that compute hasFrontmatter via Object.keys(extractFrontmatter(...)).length > 0 and reassemble the document without a frontmatter block when false. That check conflated 'no frontmatter' with 'unparseable frontmatter' (both parse to {}), so a document with a merge-conflict marker or refused alias in its frontmatter had that block silently dropped on write. Each site now preserves the exact raw bytes stripFrontmatter removed when the marker is set, leaving the genuinely-empty case unchanged.

Also records the scope caveat that the CLI write path rebuilds the frontmatter block independently, so the marker binds at the transform layer. Refs #3881 * docs(#3881): record the semantic-migration decision and the counted guard ledger The maintainer chose the full semantic migration over splitting the rule into its own epic or patching the scanner, so section 8.1 is answered as "the fork was ill-posed and the migration is semantic" rather than as (a) or (b). Also replaces the pre-implementation guess that this phase would shrink the guard surface with the counted result: excluding vendored third-party lines the hand-maintained surface is net +307, and frontmatter.cts grew by 68 lines despite four functions being deleted, because the compatibility layer over js-yaml is larger than the scanner it replaced. Section 8.1's stated benefit is therefore not delivered as written; what improved is the kind of code maintained, not the amount. Decision 6 requires recording that rather than netting it away. Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): changeset for the vendored YAML parser migration Refs #3881 * test(#3881): golden parity, round-trip property and packaging coverage Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): refuse anchors structurally and fold in review findings ADR-3473 §8.1 review findings, addressed inline: Finding 1 (BLOCKER): refuseAnchorsAndAliases was a raw-line regex that matched only the bare-key spelling (key: &x). A quoted key ("a": &x), a flow mapping ({b: &x}) and a flow sequence ([&x, *x]) all define/use the SAME anchor mechanics while never matching that line shape, so the exact expansion the guard exists to stop went straight through unrefused (a 303-byte quoted-key bomb expanded to ~35.8MB). Replaced with js-yaml's own `load` `listener` callback, which reports `state.anchor` for every event belonging to an anchored node in every spelling, and throws from inside the callback to abort before any expansion (~1-2ms vs full expand-then-discard). A merge key with an alias is still refused (merge always requires a previously anchored node, so the alias itself trips the listener); a bare merge key with NO alias is no longer separately refused, documented as intentional: FAILSAFE_SCHEMA never resolves `!!merge`, so it carries no expansion risk. Table-driven tests added for all four bypass spellings + merge key, plus a quoted-key-spelled billion-laughs fixture registered in the adversarial matrix and README. Finding 2: src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts's docblock falsely claimed anchors/ aliases were "simply UNREACHABLE from typed code" through the twin. Corrected to state the truth: anchor/alias resolution is document-level `load` mechanics reachable through exactly the declared surface, and refusal is enforced at RUNTIME (Finding 1's listener), not by the type surface. Finding 3 (MAJOR): the null-byte sentinel (U+E000) round-trip was non-injective — restoreNullBytesDeep rewrote every U+E000 in the parsed tree back to NUL, including one the document author legitimately wrote, silently corrupting it. Now refuses outright whenever the raw region already contains U+E000 (consistent with the existing anchor/merge-key refusal path), making the substitution provably injective. Tests added for a real NUL alone (preserved), a pre-existing U+E000 alone (refused, not corrupted), and both together (refused, not merged into one byte). Finding 4 (MAJOR): scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs's `srcTwin` field was dead for a hand-authored row (only read inside the upstream-verbatim branch) — exactly how Finding 2's stale docblock drifted unnoticed. Added checkHandAuthoredTwin: every value-level export the twin DECLARES must be an actual own property of the vendored runtime module at require-time. Tests added, including a sensor that a declared-but-nonexistent export IS caught. Finding 5: the existingFm/hasFrontmatter/stripFrontmatter/fmPrefix/ unparseableFm/reassemble preamble, copy-pasted at 7 sites in state-transition.cts plus a sixth hand-inlined copy in state.cts's cmdStateCompletePhase, is now one exported helper (beginFrontmatterReassembly) every site routes through, including the hand-inlined one. Three call sites (beginPhaseCore, patchCore, updateCore) keep a literal `body = stripFrontmatter(content)` assignment alongside the helper call so scripts/lint-state-write-path-drift.cjs's single-hop backward scan (which does not chase aliases) still sees the strip; stripFrontmatter is pure/idempotent so the extra call changes nothing observable. Finding 6: corrected the frontmatter.cts docblock's stale "wiring is a separate change" claim (the 8 call sites are wired on this branch) and the changeset's backlink from (#3473) to (#3881). Finding 7: fixed the lint:ci failures blocking the gate — an @typescript-eslint/only-throw-error violation from throwing a bare Symbol as the anchor-detected signal (now a real Error subclass), unused-var warnings left over from the Finding 5 refactor, a lint-test-file-count cap exceeded by two migration-specific test files (allowlisted with justification), and the lint-state-write-path-drift false positive from Finding 5's helper (fixed above). tests/frontmatter-golden-parity.test.cjs:117's execFileSync already carried an explicit timeout; no change was needed there. Golden fixture: added a golden entry for the new anchor-alias-bomb-quoted.md fixture ({} — matches what the legacy line scanner would also produce, since it independently dropped every quoted top-level key). No other corpus document diverges: real .planning/ documents carry zero anchors/aliases/merge keys/U+E000 today. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): fold in second-round review findings Finding 1 (BLOCKER): tests/frontmatter.test.cjs pinned the pre-migration ASCII-only key regex for the Unicode fixture; updated to require the 相 key's value now that js-yaml has no such restriction. Audited the rest of the file for other pre-migration pins (block scalars, quoted keys, flattened values, empty values, duplicate keys, unclosed blocks, null bytes) by execution against real fixtures; found none regressed. Finding 2: parseYamlRegion and escapeDoubleQuoted renamed to parseGuardedYamlRegion and escapeDoubleQuotedScalar in src/frontmatter.cts so no function still answers to the deleted hand-rolled scanner's name (ADR-3473 §8.1 "deleted, not patched"). escapeDoubleQuotedScalar's three external call sites (src/commands.cts, src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts) updated in the same change — a mechanical rename, not an ADR-amendment matter. Finding 3 (BLOCKER): fixed a real crash and a silent data-loss bug found by execution. A top-level key named constructor/__proto__/toString/ valueOf/hasOwnProperty crashed reconstructFrontmatter (bracket read resolving an inherited Object.prototype member); a key literally named __proto__ was silently DROPPED entirely (bracket assignment on an ordinary {} invoked the inherited __proto__ setter instead of creating a data property). Fixed by building every parsed Frontmatter object with Object.create(null), and replacing an `in` check with hasOwnProperty.call in propagateCommentChannel. Added round-trip tests for all five hostile keys, each with its own leading comment. Finding 4 (MAJOR): escapeDoubleQuotedScalar's docstring falsely claimed full byte-stability across the migration. Verified by execution: BEL/NUL/ NEL/NBSP/LS/PS/BOM now emit YAML-named escapes instead of the old hex/raw- literal forms. Proved round-trip equivalence (each escape re-parses to the exact source codepoint) and corrected the docstring. Found and fixed a related real defect while verifying: a lone UTF-16 surrogate was emitted BARE (scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting didn't trigger), producing genuinely unparseable YAML that silently collapsed to {} on re-read — extended scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting to route surrogates through the quoted+escaped path. Finding 5 (MAJOR): countKeysBeforeTruncation went silent on 4 real truncation shapes (unquoted colon, open flow collection, mis-indented sibling key, refused anchor). Root cause: the mark-based prefix recovery excluded the very line whose key needed counting, and a mark-less refusal never entered the recovery branch at all. Fixed by taking the max of two lower bounds: the longest parser-verified line-prefix, and a raw-text count of key-shaped lines (reusing the same key-shape pattern this file already uses for isFrontmatterShaped). Extended test-matrix row A5 table-driven over all 4 regressed shapes. Finding 6: the design doc's claim that no test owned the #3594 adversarial fixture corpus was false — consolidation epic #1969 had already folded it into tests/frontmatter.test.cjs. An earlier commit on this branch re-created a standalone duplicate under that false premise; folded its genuinely-new coverage (fixture-ownership check, anchor-bomb fixtures, block-scalar B1/B2 rows) into frontmatter.test.cjs and deleted the duplicate file. Corrected the false claims in 40-design.md §3.3.1 and the ADR's §8.1 note, including the roadmap-sibling claim (no such file exists). Finding 7: the golden serializer sorted object keys, making it structurally blind to the key-order-parity invariant ADR-3473 §8.1 actually claims. Made it order-preserving and regenerated the golden fixture from a standalone compile of the legacy (pre-#3881) parser at ddde001af; the current parser matches it with zero undocumented divergences, confirming key-order parity genuinely holds. Extended row A2 table-driven across 6 of the remaining 7 transitionCore kinds (all pass) plus documented, by execution, a newly-discovered 8th-site regression: state.cts's cmdStateCompletePhase calls the same preservation helper but its result is clobbered by a later unconditional resync — filed as a distinct finding rather than fixed here (touches syncAndPreserveStateMd, outside this change's verified scope). Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): preserve unparseable frontmatter through the CLI write path Characterization (executed, before/after shown): case (b), not (a). The frontmatter FENCE survives — `state complete-phase` on a conflict-marked STATE.md returns success and a well-formed, freshly-derived frontmatter block, not a document with no frontmatter at all. But the block's actual content (the merge-conflict markers, and with them any signal to a human that the document was in conflict) is silently discarded and replaced. Root cause was two clobber sites, not one: 1. syncStateFrontmatter (src/state.cts) re-parses the already-preserved `transformedContent` from readModifyWriteStateMd, finds {} + the FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE marker, and unconditionally rebuilt a fresh frontmatter block from the body anyway. 2. Even after (1) is fixed, applyPostSyncPreservation's own postFm/applyStatePreservation/authoritativeFm-reassertion machinery re-extracts frontmatter from syncedContent, restores curated fields from the pre-write snapshot, and reconstructs a NEW block again — confirmed live via `state begin-phase`, which still lost the markers after fixing (1) alone. Both are now guarded by the same predicate (isUnparseableFrontmatter, checking FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE): when the ORIGINAL frontmatter did not parse and the caller is not on ADR-3408 §8.3's closed "body wins" list, both functions return their input content unchanged rather than re-deriving over it. The closed list (cmdStateSync #905, /gsd-health --repair's REGENERATE_STATE, both routed only through writeStateMd, which never reaches applyPostSyncPreservation and passes sanctionedPermanentEmptyFallback=true to syncStateFrontmatter) is untouched — neither widened nor narrowed; verified by execution that `state sync` still overwrites the conflict-marked block exactly as before. Other verbs sharing the same readModifyWriteStateMd path were checked and were equally affected before this fix: state update, query state.patch, and state begin-phase all lost the conflict markers (RED, shown by execution), and all three now preserve them (GREEN). Covered table-driven in tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs's new A2b describe block, which drives the real CLI verbs via runGsdTools — not just the pure transitionCore layer the earlier A2 rows exercised — plus a control asserting state sync's body-wins contract is unchanged. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): restore the parse surface's prototype and fix remote-runner failures Root cause of the bulk of the 88 remote-runner failures: extractFrontmatter/parseGuardedYamlRegion handed back Object.create(null) trees for prototype-pollution safety, but assert.deepStrictEqual compares prototypes, so every assertion against a plain object literal failed (57 frontmatter.unit.test.cjs + 5 frontmatter.test.cjs + others). Fixed by keeping the internal construction null-prototype (unchanged) and converting to a plain-prototype tree via Object.defineProperty (never bracket assignment, so __proto__/constructor/toString keys stay safe) at the parseGuardedYamlRegion/unparseableResult return boundary only; the internal FULL_LINE_COMMENTS Symbol channel is copied by reference, not recursed, so its own __proto__-safety is untouched. Per-class fixes: (1) bomAcrossArtifactTypes was the same prototype bug, no separate code change needed. (2) frontmatter-cli #1660: added objectListFieldWouldLoseData, a broader lossy-field detector alongside the existing byte-identical noOpObjectListSetError -- js-yaml's flattenObjectListItem now correctly includes every sub-key of an object-list item (a real bug fix over the legacy scanner, which silently dropped every field but the first), so a set that drops that now-included data is no longer byte-identical to the original and needs its own guard. (3) uat.test.cjs: updated the pinned expectation for the human_verification quote-stripping artifact -- js-yaml resolves quoting correctly where the legacy regex left an unbalanced quote; documented as an intentional, non-lossy behavior change. (4) smart-entry: added a fallback-only loadWithAmbiguousColonRepair so a column-0 key: value line whose value itself contains an unquoted colon (the #2571 hand-edited-STATE.md shape) round-trips instead of failing the whole frontmatter block closed. (5) frontmatter.unit.test.cjs bracket-array leniency: added a second fallback, repairMalformedInlineArrays, restoring the legacy scanner's tolerant inline-array handling (consecutive/blank commas, unclosed bracket) -- both repairs run ONLY after the primary parse already threw, so well-formed documents are unaffected. (6) prompt-injection-scan: src/frontmatter.cts had a literal U+FEFF BOM embedded in a comment illustrating the #2977 fix; replaced with the U+FEFF text escape. (7) eslint-glob-coverage: allowlisted the new src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts vendored type declaration, same precedent as the existing re2js.d.cts entry. (8) frontmatter-golden-parity: git ls-files *.md now runs with -c safe.directory=* (process-scoped) so it survives the remote runner's dubious-ownership check without a persistent git config write. Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): backfill changeset PR number Refs #3881 * test(#3881): make golden parity resistant to unrelated tree churn A corpus-wide snapshot keyed to every tracked *.md file was coupled to mutable-by-design files: .changeset/*.md's pr:0 -> real-PR-number backfill is a required workflow step, not a parser change, yet it turned this suite red. Training people to 'just regenerate the golden' on that kind of failure defeats the point of the snapshot. Exclude .changeset/** from the golden corpus entirely, tolerate tracked *.md files with no golden entry (they postdate the capture) instead of failing on them, keep hard failures for a golden entry whose file has vanished from the tree and for any real parity divergence, and add a coverage floor so the enumeration cannot quietly degrade to comparing a handful of files. Golden regenerated by recompiling the legacy pre-migration parser (git show ddde001af:src/frontmatter.cts) standalone, independent of the current parser, over the same non-changeset corpus. Refs #3881 * test(#3881): make the parser golden hermetic instead of tree-keyed This repo merges ~21 commits/day; a 14-day sample measured 937 touches of the exact files (commands/gsd/*.md, gsd-core/workflows/*.md, agents/*.md, docs/*.md) the prior golden pinned by tracked path. Any PR editing one of those files' frontmatter for reasons unrelated to the parser (an argument-hint addition, an allowed-tools tweak) turned the suite red, and the reflex fix -- "regenerate the golden" -- overwrote the very snapshot meant to catch a real regression. Excluding .changeset/** was not enough; the design itself was wrong: a regression fixture must not be keyed to mutable repo paths, and a single 376-entry JSON every such PR touches is also a guaranteed merge-conflict surface. Rebuilt the fixture to carry its own documents: each of 51 entries stores a stable id, literal documentText (shrunk from a real ddde001af-era corpus document), and an expectedParse captured independently from the pre-migration legacy parser (git show ddde001af:src/frontmatter.cts, compiled standalone against its byte-identical sibling modules). The test reads no tracked path, shells out to no git command, and enumerates no tree -- a PR editing commands/gsd/help.md cannot affect it. Every entry's reconstruction was verified at capture time to reproduce both the current and legacy parser's output on the original document; 0 of 51 candidates were dropped by that check (1, the deliberately-unterminated unclosed-block.md adversarial fixture, has no closing fence to truncate at and is stored unshrunk). Kept the 5 documented DIVERGENCES rows (now diverges:true entries) and the D2 order-preserving structural serializer that keeps the comparison from passing vacuously; dropped the tree-enumeration helpers, the coverage floor, the post-capture-skip logic, and the vanished-file check -- all artifacts of the path-keyed design. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): resolve vendored-deps paths independently of cwd shape Five rows in tests/lint-vendored-deps-manifest.test.cjs failed on windows-latest CI: the test passed absolute scratch-file paths into compareFiles()/checkRow(), whose helpers joined every input onto ROOT via path.join(ROOT, rel), producing garbage when the input was already absolute. It surfaced on windows-latest specifically because GitHub's Windows runners checkout the repo on a different drive than TEMP, so path.relative(REPO_ROOT, tmpFile) returned the absolute path unchanged (no relative traversal is representable across drives) rather than the relative form the test assumed. The remote gsd-test runner this repo gates pushes on is Linux-only and could never have caught this; GitHub CI's windows-latest job is the only signal that does, and it did. Fixed the helper itself (scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs's new resolvePath()) to treat an already-absolute input as absolute-in, absolute-out instead of silently mis-joining it, and updated the test to pass the scratch file's absolute path directly rather than relying on a relative conversion that is not always representable. Kept every mutation-sensor assertion intact and added coverage proving resolvePath is a no-op for relative inputs and correctly passes absolute ones through unchanged. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): warn when state sync regenerates over unparseable frontmatter state sync (ADR-3408 §8.3's sanctioned regenerate path) correctly overwrites an unparseable frontmatter block per its 'body wins' contract — that overwrite behavior is unchanged here. The defect was the silence: synced:true/exit 0 gave no signal that the existing block (including git merge-conflict markers) could not be parsed and was destroyed, per ADR-3473 §8.5 ('a derived conclusion may not be reported as authoritative when the derivation dropped input it could not resolve') and §8.4 ('failure is a value'). Adds a gsd: warning — ... (#3881) line on stderr, matching the existing #3573 precedent, and surfaces the same disclosure in the JSON result's existing changes[] array so a machine consumer sees it too. Exit code and synced:true are left unchanged — sync did what its contract says. REGENERATE_STATE (/gsd-health --repair's sibling on the same sanctioned-regenerate list) is DESTRUCTIVE-risk and unconditionally refused by applyRepairs's dispatcher before runRepairAction ever runs (src/health-diagnostic.cts), so it is not a live path today and is not in scope for this fix. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): exit non-zero when a state command returns an error Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): changeset for the state exit-code fix Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): honor the documented --project-dir flag Refs #3881 * revert(#3881): restore exit-0 result envelopes for state errors Reverts 9638f2936 and its changeset. The change was wrong and the revert is the correction. This repo distinguishes two error mechanisms deliberately. error() in src/io.cts writes to stderr and calls process.exit(1) -- the hard-failure path. output({error: ...}) writes a JSON result envelope to stdout and returns normally with exit 0. The reverted commit converted 23 result-envelope sites into hard failures, which is a different contract, not a bug fix. tests/state-contract.test.cjs's errorPathDoesNotPublish asserts the envelope contract directly -- a failing command exits 0 with a JSON error envelope and must not publish state.json -- and the remote matrix run caught it along with four cases in the QA scenario walk. Thirteen tests in tests/state.test.cjs that the original commit rewrote were encoding that real contract, not the bug it claimed; they are restored. Whether an error envelope on stdout with exit 0 is the right CLI design is a genuine question, and it is section 8.4's rule ('failure is a value') with its own phase. It is not something to flip inside this PR. Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): backfill changeset PR number for the project-dir fix Refs #3881 * test(#3881): keep the frontmatter mutation shard inside its time budget The Stryker (frontmatter) shard hit the documented 15-minute (900s) shard cap. Root cause is NOT row-level spawn overhead (contrast the #2790/ core-utils precedent): the three shard test files' own logic runs in ~413ms total (356+30+27ms) with all 392 assertions passing. Instead, src/frontmatter.cts grew from ~825 to 1496 lines (+671/-187) migrating to the vendored YAML parser, proportionally growing the mutant count Stryker generates for gsd-core/bin/lib/frontmatter.cjs. Stryker's command runner bills the full 'node --test <3 files>' invocation once per mutant, and node:test's default per-file process isolation forks a child process for each of the three files on every one of those invocations — pure fork overhead multiplied by a much larger mutant population. Fix: scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs COVERED.frontmatter now declares isolation: 'none', and .github/workflows/mutation.yml passes --test-isolation=${{ matrix.isolation }} (defaulting to 'process' — i.e. unchanged behavior — for the other 8 shards, which were not individually audited for cross-file state leakage under shared-process execution). Measured locally via node:test's run() API on the exact 3-file set: isolation:'process' took ~593ms vs isolation:'none' ~478ms for the same 392 passing assertions. The true CI-shard number can only be confirmed on the GitHub Actions run (Stryker cannot run locally, and 'node --test' is hard-blocked in this environment). Refs #3881 * test(#3881): register the vendored-parser tests in the frontmatter mutation shard stryker.config.mjs's own rule ("Keep this list in sync with the tests arrays in scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs COVERED") was violated: #3881 grew src/frontmatter.cts from ~825 to 1496 lines but its new tests (tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs, tests/frontmatter-golden-parity.test.cjs, tests/frontmatter-roundtrip.property.test.cjs, and +167 lines in tests/frontmatter.test.cjs) were never added to the frontmatter shard's tests array, so Stryker's mutants in the new vendored-js-yaml adapter had nothing constraining them. PR #3888 measured 55.8% against the 65 floor (748 killed / 593 survived / 17 timeout) and the shard was separately cancelled at 15m04s against the 15-minute per-shard cap. Registers all four files (each earns its slot on evidence of a unique constraining assertion, documented inline), gives the shard a measured/projected 180-minute budget via a new per-module timeoutMinutes field threaded through mutation.yml's job-level timeout-minutes the same way isolation is threaded, and removes the prior isolation:'none' override (re-measured at this file-set size, its savings are within run-to-run noise, not worth the unaudited cross-file-state-leakage risk). Refs #3881 * feat(#3881): derive the mutation test list and ratchet the score floor Refs #3881 * test(#3881): ratchet five stale mutation floors and close the frontmatter gap Raised five module minScore floors per CI run 33012034388 (floor(achieved)-1): config-schema 75.51%->74, prompt-budget 88.95%->87, context-composer 79.92%->78, context-utilization 92.31%->91, active-workstream-store 87.42%->86. Updated both scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs COVERED entries and tests/mutation-matrix-ratchet.test.cjs RATCHET_BASELINE in the same diff per the ratchet's own contract. Closed the frontmatter shard's 63.03%-vs-65 gap with new behavioral tests in tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs, each paired with a documented near-miss: frontmatterDeepEqual's array-order/length/type-mismatch/key-order semantics (via spliceFrontmatter's no-op guard), scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting's leading/trailing-whitespace and dash/surrogate triggers (via reconstructFrontmatter), repairAmbiguousColonValues' already-quoted vs ambiguous-colon repair paths (via extractFrontmatter), and the null-byte sentinel round-trip surviving at region offset 1. Did not lower minScore. Refs #3881 * test(#3881): decouple the ratchet test from real module floors The CLI end-to-end rows in tests/mutation-score-ratchet.test.cjs hardcoded config-schema's real floor (52), which commit 973321541 legitimately ratcheted to 74 -- breaking a test pinned to the exact value the mechanism under test exists to change. Add an injectable --matrix seam to scripts/check-mutation-score-ratchet.cjs and point the CLI rows at a synthetic module + synthetic floor built via a temp fixture, so the rows are indifferent to any real module's floor moving while still exercising the same fail/pass behaviour.

Restores the function plus its post-throw fallback path (loadWithAmbiguousColonRepair) only; repairMalformedInlineArrays and splitLegacyInlineArrayItems stay deleted, reverified against the full frontmatter test shard. Adds a frontmatter-level regression row in tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs so the dependency is visible where the function lives.

Tom Boucher	a3d5841117	fix(#3714): deliver an explicitly pinned model to the Codex worktree executor, and drop an unusable one (#3891) ... * test(#3714): failing-first coverage for the dropped Codex worktree model override Pins the argv contract for the orchestrator-worktree process dispatch: an explicit model_overrides pin must reach the child as --model, while an unpinned, empty, inherit, or profile-only configuration must emit no flag at all. Five of the eight matrix rows are CONTROLS that pass before the fix. They carry the weight here because this is an over-emission bug waiting to happen: resolve-model returns 'sonnet' for the unpinned, empty and profile-only cases, so a fix that threads its return value into argv would satisfy the positive row and emit --model sonnet to Codex on every unpinned install -- the documented 400 that ADR-2313 exists to prevent. The controls are what separate the correct fix from the obvious one. * fix(#3714): deliver an explicitly pinned model to the Codex worktree executor resolveOrchestratorExec had no model input at all -- the descriptor carried only command/args/cwdFlag/promptFlag -- so a resolved override had no way to reach the spawned process even in principle. The baked gsd-executor.toml could not compensate because this path spawns a process rather than dispatching a named agent. Three parts, and the third is the load-bearing one. The descriptor gains modelFlag (codex: --model), keeping the per-host knowledge as descriptor data exactly as cwdFlag and promptFlag already are, so the scheduler grows no per-host branch. No other runtime declares it. The seam appends [modelFlag, model] and stays MECHANICAL: it does not know the inherit sentinel, does not know which models Codex rejects, and reads no config. Its sibling codex-agent-toml states that rule outright -- callers decide what to strip. Argv order is baseArgs, model, cwd, prompt so the prompt remains the final positional token. Omitting the model is byte-identical to before. A model starting with '-' now fails closed as unsafe_leading_dash_model, the same hazard the prompt and cwd guards already reject and which was silently accepted before. The policy lives at the caller and passes ONLY an explicit, non-sentinel per-agent pin. Passing null as the runtime resolver is what keeps profile and tier derived models out of argv, which is what Codex's session-only model posture requires: the model resolver returns 'sonnet' for the unpinned, empty and profile-only cases, and emitting that revives the documented 400 from #2310/#2311 that ADR-2313 removed. So the gate is the presence of an explicit pin, never that a value came back. * fix(#3714): enforce the real-Codex value policy the sibling surface already applies Review found one root cause behind a BLOCKER, two MAJORs, two MINORs and an argv-injection finding: the dispatch path gated on the PRESENCE of an explicit pin but never applied the VALUE policy that generateCodexAgentToml already applies to the same config key. Textbook generative divergence -- and the parity row I wrote tested resolver parity, not this policy, so it could never have caught it. BLOCKER: a global ~/.gsd/defaults.json model_overrides.gsd-executor of 'sonnet', 'opus' or 'claude-sonnet-4-5' reached codex exec --model verbatim. That is the documented 400 from #2310/#2311, arriving through the explicit-pin door rather than the tier door. The issue asks for an explicit REAL-CODEX pin; real-Codex was unenforced. Now dropped with a warning via the isAnthropicFlavoredModel predicate #3241 single-sourced for exactly this reason. Also: values are trimmed, so a whitespace-only pin is blank rather than --model " "; 'inherit' is matched case- and whitespace-insensitively, so 'Inherit' and ' inherit ' no longer reach the wire; and a value outside a model-id charset is dropped with a warning. That last one closes the injection surface -- .planning/config.json travels with a clone, and values like 'gpt-5 -c approval_policy=never' or a command-substitution value previously reached argv verbatim, where the spawner is an agent writing bash. Every rejection DROPS AND WARNS rather than failing closed. An unusable exec is not degraded, it is fatal: the dispatch step halts the wave after the worktree already exists, so a config typo would have aborted execute-phase. The stale comment claiming it degrades to sequential is corrected. Separately, the seam's own empty-model handling contradicted the committed contract and failed four tests on the remote runner. An absent, null or empty model is not an error -- it means use the host default, the same degradation cwdFlag:null already expresses. Unlike a prompt, where empty is a hang rather than a degraded run, so that one stays fail-closed. Non-string values still fail closed. Tests: the CLI rows were not HOME-hermetic and read the developer's real ~/.gsd/defaults.json, which is precisely the file the BLOCKER is about; HOME and USERPROFILE are now sandboxed per call. Adds the global-pin regression, the injection shapes, the case-variant inherit rows, and a real cross-surface divergence guard. * fix(#3714): close the flag-shaped pin, the case-variant alias, and the warning sink Round two of review found three more defects, two of which both engines reached independently, and all three were mine. The charset allowlist put the dash INSIDE the character class, so a value made only of allowed characters passed the pin policy silently and then tripped the seam's leading-dash guard, producing exec:null. That is the wave-fatal path the whole drop-and-warn design exists to avoid, reachable from a committed config file: -c, --config, -p and --dangerously-skip-permissions all reproduced it. It also regressed hosts with no model flag at all, where a dash pin turned a previously working kimi-code dispatch into exec:null. The first character is now anchored, so a flag-shaped value is dropped and warned like every other rejection, and the comment that claimed this path was unreachable is corrected. isAnthropicFlavoredModel folded case on its substring arm but not on its alias-set arm, so SONNET, Sonnet, OPUS and HAIKU all reached Codex argv while lowercase sonnet was correctly dropped -- the same 400 the drop exists to prevent. The predicate is the one #3241 single-sourced so these surfaces cannot diverge, so folding case there fixes the install-side .toml surface too. The warning wrote the rejected value RAW to stderr. Every value that fails the charset test contains by definition the characters the charset excludes, so it was a guaranteed-reachable raw-to-terminal sink: an OSC sequence in a committed config reached the operator's terminal byte for byte, and truncation could sever an escape before its reset. The value is now sanitized before truncation. Also from review: the allowlist rejected Vertex version pins like text-bison@002, a false positive on a real model id; the policy ran host-neutrally so hosts with no model flag printed a misleading drop warning on every dispatch; the invalid_model branch had no test at all; and the changeset disclosed only that a pin is delivered, not that an unusable one is now dropped with a warning. * fix(#3714): single-source the model-id charset, bound the pin, keep the flag diagnosis Round three found no blocking findings on either engine. These are the three correctness items left in code I added. The charset existed TWICE -- once to accept a pin, once to render a rejected one in the warning -- and the two copies had already drifted inside a single commit: '@' was added to the accept class and not the render class, so a Vertex-shaped value rejected for some other reason rendered as text-bison?002. Both are now derived from one definition, with a parity test asserting every character the matcher accepts survives the sanitizer unchanged, so they cannot drift again. A pin reached argv unbounded. CLAUDE.md documents the hazard: execFileSync aborts on Windows above 32,767 characters of argv. A model id has no reason to be long, so a pin over 200 characters is dropped and warned rather than truncated -- a truncated model id is a different model id. Boundary rows at 199, 200 and 201. The first character is now required to be alphanumeric, so '@evil' and '/c' no longer reach argv. Security rates both inert on codex today, so this is hardening rather than a live defect; it is here because it is one character of regex and resolveOrchestratorExec documents itself as a general descriptor-to-argv seam that other hosts may adopt. Tightening the anchor made the leading-dash branch unreachable and, with it, regressed the diagnosis: '-c' began reporting 'unsafe characters' instead of 'looks like a flag/option'. The dash check now runs before the charset test, which both restores the actionable message for the most likely user typo and keeps the branch live. A test pins the distinction between the three rejection messages so the branch cannot silently die again. * test(#3714): make the charset parity guard actually guard, and remove a false-green trap Review proved by mutation that my parity test could not do what its own comment claimed. It bound the expected character set to a local that was assigned and discarded, and the shared definition was not exported, so widening that definition left the test green. A comment overstating what a test guards is worse than no comment, because the next reader trusts it. The shared body is now exported and asserted equal, and I watched the assertion fail against a widened definition before keeping it. The sanitizer regex was module-scope, carried the g flag and was exported. Production only uses it with replace, which resets lastIndex, so there was no live bug -- but test() on a g-flagged regex alternates between calls, so any future test reaching for it would false-green. The g-flagged copy is now internal to the one call site that needs it and the exported companion carries no flags, which removes the footgun rather than documenting it. Also notes at the shared definition that it is interpolated into both a positive and a negated character class, so only plain characters and ranges are safe to add. No runtime behavior changes: the accept set, the anchor, the length cap, the sanitizer output, the rejection ordering and all three message texts are byte-identical, re-verified through the real CLI. * chore(#3714): backfill changeset pr number * chore(#3714): re-trigger CI after the GitHub Actions outage The workflow runs for this branch were created during the Actions major outage on 2026-08-26 and never got scheduled. They are wedged: GitHub reports them queued, refuses to cancel them, and refuses to rerun them because it believes the workflow is already running. The Tests run is also pinned to a superseded sha, so no test run exists for the current head at all. Actions is operational again and the repo-wide queue has drained, so a fresh push is what creates schedulable runs. This commit is empty on purpose: nothing about the change is being altered, and the verified content is byte-identical to 7860c6ccc. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-26 17:01:09 -04:00

Measured at 832dcbb75, three statements are wrong. The slug count is 11 across 5 files, not 13; two of the thirteen were an unrelated tokenizer regex. The divergence is real and reproduced. resolveRuntime reads no install marker at all and has no cache; PR #3382, cited as prior art for that rung, is closed unmerged. The Codex sandbox is still a hand-maintained subset map with a silent read-only fallback, and validate agents checks file presence only -- both halves of that claim are false. The shortFormToId rule is accurate. The guard roster names no casualty for this rule. Section 8.3 is therefore a work list, not a conformance check.

Tom Boucher	a638ca4332	enhance(#3882): stop sentinel phases skewing estimation calibration (#3893) ... * test(#3882): failing-first rows for sentinel phases skewing calibration Adds A1a/A1b/A2/A3 to tests/estimate-calibrate.test.cjs, the module's existing test file, rather than a new bug-NNNN file. collectCalibrationSamples (src/estimate-cli.cts:206) does a raw readdirSync over .planning/phases and never applies isSentinelPhaseId, so a sentinel phase (milestone 0 or 999) carrying a PLAN estimate / SUMMARY actuals pair contributes a phantom calibration sample. computeCalibration is median-based, so a single 50x outlier among three samples leaves the factor unmoved — asserting "the factor is unchanged" against one sentinel would pass on the broken code for the wrong reason. Each row instead asserts the WHOLE computed CalibrationResult object (factor, applied, confidence, sampleCount, clamped) for a sentinel-free project against its sentinel-injected twin: - A1a: one sentinel flips applied false->true and confidence low->med on phantom evidence (calibration switches on with zero real signal). - A1b: two sentinels corrupt the factor itself (1 -> 3, clamped false->true). - A2: the sentinel's own sample is verified absent from the returned list. - A3: the two genuine phases still contribute their own unchanged samples (regression pin — stops A1/A2 passing by filtering everything). Verified RED on today's code (node tests/estimate-calibrate.test.cjs): A1a/A1b/A2 fail with the exact differing objects; A3 and all pre-existing rows in the file remain green (no collateral). Refs #3882 * feat(#3882): route phase enumeration through its owner and name the sentinel axis Task 1: collectCalibrationSamples (src/estimate-cli.cts) hand-rolled a raw readdirSync over .planning/phases, treating every directory (including sentinel phases, milestone 0/999) as a completed phase and feeding phantom PLAN/SUMMARY samples into the estimation calibration factor. Routed through the existing owner, listMilestonePhaseDirs(phasesRoot) with no cwd -- already 'all milestones, sentinels excluded', exactly the combination this caller needs; no new API was required for this half. It now also surfaces the scope discriminator: an unreadable phases directory throws PhasesUnreadableError instead of silently returning zero samples, and cmdEstimateCalibrate reports it via a new ERROR_REASON.ESTIMATE_PHASES_UNREADABLE instead of persisting a phantom empty calibration document. Task 2: added listAllPhaseDirs(phasesDir, { includeSentinels }) to src/phase-locator.cts -- the one genuinely missing axis: 'physical set, sentinels INCLUDED'. includeSentinels has no default and is required, so a call site cannot obtain sentinel-inclusion by omission (compile-time refusal, not just documentation). Mirrors listMilestonePhaseDirs's absent/unreadable scope handling. Task 3: migrated the two exemptions whose written reason maps cleanly onto 'physical set, sentinels included' -- cmdRoadmapAnalyze's _phaseDirNames (src/roadmap.cts) and cmdInitMilestoneOp's diskPhaseDirs (src/init.cts), both heading->directory lookup indexes. Left the rest: archivePhaseDirectories's own body has no readdirSync to migrate (its callers already resolve dirs before calling it, and both current callers deliberately EXCLUDE sentinels -- migrating it would be an unauthorized behavior change, not an API swap); cmdValidateHealth's exemption is vestigial (its actual physical-set sweep already lives in planning-snapshot.cts's buildAllPhaseDirNamesField, a pre-existing near-duplicate of the new axis, flagged as a finding, not restructured); cmdPhasesClear/cmdMilestoneComplete/cmdVerifySchemaDrift/detectHasPriorPhases/detectUiPhaseActive want a different combination (sentinels excluded, or a single-phase lookup) and are unaffected. Task 4: detector 2 (sentinel literal) is untouched and retained. Removed exemption entries only for the two migrated call sites; every other function-scoped exemption is preserved. Guard exits 0.

Tom Boucher	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. * chore(#3707): backfill changeset pr number --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-26 09:16:22 -04:00
Tom Boucher	ddde001af6	enhance(#3873): the STATE.md schema — one owner, generated artifacts (#3880) ... * test(#3873): failing-first locale parity, plus tripwires for what must not move Pins ADR-3473 §8.8 at the artifact a reader actually sees. The English STATE.md reference carries a Status lifecycle section that is missing from all four translations — the section documenting the status enum whose clobbering is #3853. The test derives the heading set rather than hard-coding the missing one, and names the locale and the heading when it fails. Two tripwires that must pass today and after. The field-drift guard still catches a re-derived fallback ladder: §8.8 instructs deleting that script, and that instruction rests on a wrong premise about what it guards, so the test stops a future reader from deleting it on the ADR's word. And last_activity's label resolution is pinned to what ships today, because it is declared in one of the two tables this phase consolidates and not the other — the consolidation must not silently pick a side. The locale test buckets under docs rather than state, which is what it tests; that bucket is allowlisted with justification rather than folded into an unrelated docs suite. It reads only markdown, so it carries no allow-test-rule marker — a marker there would suppress nothing and would grow the unverified pool against its ceiling. Refs #3873 * feat(#3873): one schema owns the STATE.md key set, three tables become projections ADR-3473 §8.8. The key set was declared in four places that had to agree by hand and already did not: FIELD_CLASSIFICATION, FRONTMATTER_BODY_SOURCE, FRONTMATTER_KEY_TO_BODY_LABEL and buildStateFrontmatter's emit behavior. One frozen null-prototype schema now declares each key's type, enum, cardinality, source, preservation, body source, body label, accepted parse shapes and whether it is emitted unconditionally; the three tables are derived from it at module load. The projections are byte-identical to the literals they replace, key order included, and the parity tests compare against verbatim copies of today's tables rather than re-deriving both sides from the schema — a parity test fed from one source proves nothing, which is how a consolidation ships a changed policy under a green test. last_activity was the live disagreement: present in one table, absent from the other. The schema declares what ships today rather than the tidier answer, and a test pins it. The schema is a leaf module and owns the four field-policy types, re-exported from state-transition so existing importers are untouched — the same split health-diagnostic-types made to break a CJS require cycle. Refs #3873 * feat(#3873): generate the schema-derived regions, parity-check the prose tables ADR-3473 §8.8's generator half. gen-state-md-docs.cjs owns marked regions in the shipped template and all five reference docs, follows gen-features.cjs's fail-closed contract, and is wired into regen:derived and lint:generated-sync. The Status lifecycle section was missing from all four translations — the section documenting the status enum behind #3853 — and is now generated into every locale. Field cardinality is a new generated table: pure schema data, no prose, so nothing to lose. The Field-reference and Status-values tables are parity-CHECKED rather than generated. Their Purpose, When-populated and Matched-text columns are genuinely hand-translated per locale, and §8.8 itself says prose stays hand-translated; generating them from an English registry would overwrite four locales' translations on every write. The row set is checked against the schema instead, so a key added to one and not the other fails, which is what field drift actually means. Building that check found last_activity_desc undocumented in all five tables. Three keys the docs describe are absent from the schema — active_phase, next_action, next_phases. They are grandfathered by name, not by wildcard, so a fourth fails: a declared gap with a forcing function rather than a silent one. Refs #3873 * fix(#3873): declare what the parsers do, and close the shape-parity gap Two declarations in the new schema described intended behavior rather than actual — the defect class this epic exists to end, committed inside the epic. Both were caught by executing the parsers instead of reading their docstrings. current_plan.acceptedShapes claimed ['N', 'N of M']. Standalone, the hybrid shape errors; the path that looks like support is parseInt truncating '2 of 5' to 2 and discarding the rest. Narrowed to ['N']. The parser is deliberately NOT fixed here: that is #3784 and PR #3791 is already doing it. When #3791 lands this row must widen, and the shape test will go red until it does — the schema and the parser cannot drift apart quietly, which is what §8.8's checked-not- generated rule is for. STATUS_LIFECYCLE_ENUM claimed to be the closed set status can hold. normalizeStateStatus passes unrecognized prose through unchanged, so it is not closed at runtime. The seven members are the canonical values it maps onto; the docstring now says that and the test asserts the real lenient contract. Closes the acceptance item that a test asserts the parsers accept exactly the declared shapes: the check is table-driven over every row carrying acceptedShapes, guarded against passing vacuously on an empty set, and fails loudly if a future row has no registered driver. Adds the unwired-label throw and the fast-check property that every projection agrees with its schema row. Refs #3873 * fix(#3873): keep the shipped template's frontmatter first, and make row 27 able to fail The remote matrix caught 12 failures with one cause. Making the template's frontmatter a generated region wrapped it in its own yaml fence ahead of the markdown fence, so extractFileTemplate and readShippedStateTemplateBody — which both match the single markdown block — found the heading first, not the frontmatter. That breaks the contract every new project's STATE.md is created from: bug #21 and epic #1969 B8 pin that the File Template block starts with frontmatter and carries gsd_state_version. The markers now sit inside the single markdown fence, so the fence opens before the frontmatter and the region still ends ahead of the heading. Same layout as before this phase, with markers embedded rather than a second fence. Row 27 existed to catch exactly this and did not, because it was writer-seeded: it asserted against the generator's own output shape, so it passed on the broken template. It now parses the fence the way production does and was verified to fail against the broken shape before being trusted against the fixed one. A test that would not have caught the bug it exists to prevent is worse than no test. The emitted-attribution failure was separate and the fragment was the wrong remedy: gsd-core/templates/state.md self-attributes under a verbatim-copy identity rule, so a diff touching it needs no acknowledgment. Fragment deleted rather than left explaining nothing. Refs #3873 * docs(#3873): how to change the STATE.md schema The phase gate was right and my docs artifact was wrong. I listed lint:generated-sync as the second enablement step, which is a verification command dressed as one, and then claimed a one-step sequence owed no how-to. The real sequence is build:lib then regen:derived, and the ordering is a trap: the generator reads the COMPILED schema, so regenerating before building regenerates against the previous schema and commits artifacts that look plausible while disagreeing with the code just written. A reference table cannot carry an ordering dependency; that is what the how-to test is for. The page covers adding, changing and removing a key, every reason code the check emits and what to do about each, what is generated versus hand-translated and why the two prose-bearing tables are parity-checked instead of generated, adding a language, and the three grandfathered keys.

Tom Boucher	3b18eff388	enhance(#3872): what a command reports it wrote — the transaction diff (#3878) ... * test(#3872): failing-first regressions for what a command reports it wrote Pins ADR-3473 §8.7 at the consumer's output. state planned-phase advances current_phase on disk and never reports it, and reports progress.total_plans which reconcileReportedFields silently drops because it cannot resolve a dotted key against nested frontmatter. Both directions of #3818's own before/after diff, reproduced against the real CLI. Also pins the two properties the change must not break: a fully-failed patch still reports an empty updated array, which is what state.cts:607's success boolean depends on; and two content-identical writes differ in last_updated alone. That second one measured state_head NOT to be ambient — it is recomputed every write but only changes when git HEAD moved — so the provenance exclusion is a one-element set, with a companion test pinning that state_head does change when HEAD moves. Refs #3872 * feat(#3872): derive what a command reports from the transaction diff ADR-3473 §8.7. reconcileReportedFields compared the transform's own output against persisted bytes and then filtered what preservation had restored by its FIELD_CLASSIFICATION policy. Both are replaced by one comparison of persisted against the pre-write state the transaction already holds, surfaced to the command through the same caller-allocates out-param idiom divergedFields established. Both of the old directions fall out of that single comparison: a field the transform reported but the pipeline discarded is persisted-equals-snapshot and drops out, and a field nobody reported but the write moved is different and appears. The classification filter is deleted, not relocated — no policy test remains anywhere in the reporting path. Reporting is at dotted-leaf granularity, enumerated from the progress.* rows FIELD_CLASSIFICATION already declares rather than by walking user data to arbitrary depth. That closes a live defect: plannedPhaseCore already pushed progress.total_plans and reconcileReportedFields silently dropped it, because a flat hasOwnProperty cannot resolve a dotted key against nested frontmatter. Current Position was lost the same way and is fixed in the same place. The exclusion is one field, last_updated, and it is by provenance rather than by classification: it is the only field measured to change on every write regardless of content. state_head was measured NOT to qualify — it is recomputed every write but only changes when git HEAD moved. Without that exclusion state.patch's success boolean, which is updated.length > 0, would be permanently true and a fully-failed patch would report success. Refs #3872 * fix(#3872): cover the matrix, and close a prototype-chain read the coverage found Review found 20 of 29 test-matrix rows uncovered. Covering them found two real defects rather than merely documenting the intended behavior. bodyLabelFor read FRONTMATTER_KEY_TO_BODY_LABEL with a bare bracket index on a plain object literal, so a field named __proto__, constructor or toString resolved to the inherited prototype member and leaked a non-string value into the updated array. Fixed with an own-property check, mirroring the discipline resolveFrontmatterPath already had. The security-relevant matrix row proved it before the fix. applyPostSyncPreservation still carried its own inline copy of the value comparison alongside the new stateFieldValuesDiffer, which is two live copies of one rule introduced by the epic that exists to remove them. Routed through the single owner. Adds the fast-check property that a field appears iff its persisted value differs from the snapshot, the string-versus-number representation boundary, dotted paths into missing parents and into scalars, deleted and added keys, and the preserve-if-placeholder pair that proves no classification test survives in the reporting path. Refs #3872 * docs(#3872): document the transaction diff on the write path The updated array's contract belongs where the write path is described. States the iff rule, leaf granularity, the single provenance exclusion and why state_head is deliberately not one, and closes with the consequence a reader actually needs: these arrays are longer than they used to be, because they used to under-report. Refs #3872 * fix(#3872): a derived leaf materializing is not a change the caller made The remote matrix caught 17 failures with two causes. The substantive one is that progress is source: disk, and the disk cannot change during a STATE.md write — the write only touches STATE.md. So a progress block appearing where the snapshot had none is the scanner populating a document that had never been synced. The bytes moved; nothing the caller did moved them. That is the same shape as last_updated one level up, so the provenance rule is generalized rather than special-cased: a field appears iff its persisted value changed for a reason attributable to this write's action, and two cases are not attributable — a field stamped unconditionally on every save, and a declared derived leaf materializing from a source that did not change. Crucially this does not consult the preservation policy, so the filter §8.7 deleted stays deleted; it uses the declared leaf set to know which keys are derived. This had a second production consumer the earlier review concluded did not exist: cmdStatePlannedPhase gates publishStateContract on updated.length, and its own inline comment predicts exactly this failure. A no-op call was publishing state.json. advancePlanNoOpDoesNotPublish genuinely encoded pre-§8.7 behavior and moves. E2 and E6 had carved out total_plans as reportable-on-materialization, an error introduced earlier on this branch rather than a pre-existing pin, and are corrected with it.

Tom Boucher	1863f5569c	enhance(#3871): the state transaction — mandatory snapshot, open()/rebuild() (#3874) ... * test(#3871): failing-first regressions for the dropped curated progress block Pins ADR-3473 §8.6 / #3756 at the consumer's output: state record-session and state add-decision on an archived-milestone project drop the curated progress frontmatter entirely, exit 0, and report nothing. Reproduced against the real CLI before writing the tests, not inferred from the issue text. Also adds the unit-level probe that applyStatePreservation's preserve-always row is inert on a resyncing write, and an over-preservation guard that an empty project is never inflated. Refs #3871 * feat(#3871): make the STATE.md pre-write snapshot mandatory via open()/rebuild() ADR-3473 §8.6. StatePreservationInput's nullable preFm and the always-present preFmSnapshot were the same extractFrontmatter call, one of them nulled on resync — a policy flag baked into a snapshot. Both collapse into a single StateTransaction whose snapshot cannot be absent: openStateTransaction() applies preservation, rebuildStateTransaction() does not, and both carry the snapshot because the reporting phase needs it either way. An absent snapshot is now a construction failure; an empty one stays legal, because that is what a document with no parseable frontmatter honestly has. writeStateMd requires a rebuild transaction, which types ADR-3408 §8.3's closed exception list at both call sites (state sync, health --repair) instead of matching them as strings in a ratcheted baseline. Fixes the dropped curated progress block: an all-zero or absent derived total set is an unmeasured scan, not a measurement, so the curated block stands. Also fixes two defects surfaced while building — preserve-always reported a mutation even when it restored an identical value, and it re-entered the curated object by reference, which would alias the snapshot the next phase diffs against. Refs #3871 * fix(#3871): close the three remaining subsumed defects and restore the arm the type does not replace Review of the first two commits found four things. The guard shrink deleted the seam-bypass axis whole, but only its writeStateMd( arm became redundant. Its other arm catches a call site re-assembling syncStateFrontmatter + applyPostSyncPreservation instead of the owned composition, which the transaction type does not make unrepresentable and which #3469 found live. Restored as findCompositionBypasses, terminal rather than ratcheted. Three of the four issues this phase claims were untouched. All three are the epic's own shape and are fixed at the seam: current_phase_name is reasserted from the curated value when the caller names none, and cmdStateJson stops carrying a hand-maintained list parallel to FIELD_CLASSIFICATION and projects it instead. The construction failure that is the point of this phase had no test. Every enumerated matrix row now has one, including the measured-versus-unmeasured coercion boundary and a seeded property that no curated key is ever dropped. ADR-3473 §8.6 said the guard 'keeps only its raw-write check'. Verified against next: there was no raw-write check, and four other checks it does not name. Amended in place with the evidence. ARCHITECTURE.md separately advertised a preservation policy the code had deleted. Refs #3871 * fix(#3871): do not let the unmeasured-scan rule block an explicitly-requested resync The remote matrix caught over-preservation, the failure this phase's own negative space says must not happen. state update Progress re-derives the block from the body the caller just rewrote; on a project with no phase dirs the derivation yields zero totals, the unmeasured rule read that as 'the scan measured nothing', and the stale curated percent was restored over the resync the user asked for. preserve-always already said what the missing condition was: never overwrite unless the caller explicitly names this field. explicitProgressField carries it and is derived from shouldResyncStateProgress, not set by hand at a call site, so it cannot drift from what the caller asked for. Two defects found in the same mechanism and fixed with it. readModifyWriteStateMd enumerates its option keys, so a new option was silently dropped rather than rejected. And the raw-write axis captured its first argument up to the first comma, which lands inside a nested path.join, so a write to a STATE.md literal was invisible to it — the prove-it-can-fail test caught that one immediately. No test assertion was weakened; all three frontmatter rows encode #3242, #1969 B3 and #1972 and stand unchanged. Refs #3871 * docs(#3871): record why the raw-write check is kept, not why it was named The amendment justified findRawStateWrites as 'written because §8.6 requires it to exist', which is cargo-culting the contract and would have been the wrong reason to keep anything. The real reason is that writeStateMd acquires the STATE.md lockfile and a raw fs.writeFileSync acquires nothing, so this is a lock bypass and lost-update is the #500/#905/#1230 family — and after this phase it is the one reachable path into the file that nothing else covers. Also records why ADR-3408 §8.6's deletion of the 'clear' policy is not the precedent it looks like: 'clear' was dead vocabulary in a closed enum, this is coverage of a reachable path.

Tom Boucher	382bf7c423	fix(#3706): deliver the resolved reasoning effort to OpenCode subagents (#3867) ... * test(#3706): failing-first coverage for OpenCode variant emission and frontmatter escaping * fix(#3706): emit the resolved reasoning effort as OpenCode's variant key `query resolve-execution` resolved an effort level for every agent, but the OpenCode bake wrote only `model:` — the effort never reached the generated agent, so subagents ran at whatever the runtime defaulted the model to. This is the effort-side twin of the model-side defect fixed in #3705. The key is written only when an `effort` block is actually configured. `resolveInstallTimeEffort` always returns a level (the catalog default is `high`), so gating on its return value would stamp `variant: high` into every existing OpenCode install — and OpenCode resolves a variant name against a `variants` map in the user's `opencode.jsonc`, so a value nobody declared is not a safe default. Gating on `readGsdEffectiveEffortConfig` keeps installs that never asked for effort routing byte-identical. Kilo does not receive the key: `EFFORT_ARGV` declares surfaces for claude, opencode and codex and has no kilo entry. This is deliberately asymmetric with the model side, where #2794 J8 requires the two runtimes to resolve alike. Both frontmatter sinks now route through `frontmatterScalar`, which quotes and escapes any value that is not a plain scalar. The raw interpolation predates this change, but it was already shown by execution during the #3705 security review to let a config value containing a newline inject additional top-level keys (`tools:`, `permission:`) into a generated agent file. This change adds a second write to that sink, so it is closed here rather than doubled. * fix(#3706): quote frontmatter values YAML would not read back verbatim Self-review of the predicate added in the previous commit. Treating /^[A-Za-z0-9._:/@+-]+$/ as 'safe to emit bare' answers the wrong question: a value can match it and still not round-trip. - A leading '@' is a YAML *reserved* indicator and may not open a plain scalar at all, so a scoped ID like '@org/model' emitted bare is a parse error, not an ambiguity — the whole agent file becomes unreadable. - 'no' / 'y' / 'off' / 'null' resolve to booleans and null, so a variant with one of those names would match no entry in the user's variants map. - '12:30' resolves to 750 under YAML 1.1 sexagesimal, and ':' is legal mid-identifier here, so the form is reachable rather than contrived. Real model IDs pass every clause and stay bare, so already-generated files remain byte-identical. * fix(#3706): route variant through the declared effort seam and cover the live path Addresses six findings from the isolated review, all confirmed by execution. The tests were the serious one: they required `../bin/install.js` while the fix landed in src/, which compiles to gsd-core/bin/lib/. They exercised a different copy of the converter than the one the bake actually uses, so the whole suite was green-by-construction against unchanged code and the remote run failed all 13. Every case now runs against BOTH copies from one table, which doubles as the parity assertion the generative-fix note in runtime-artifact-conversion.cts asks for, and bin/install.js carries the mirrored change. Emission no longer hand-rolls the value. It goes through `renderEffortArgv`, the declared OpenCode effort seam (EFFORT_ARGV.opencode: its own supported set and clamp). That is what rejects a level that is not a wire value — above all `inherit`, which per #3533 (10d) means "omit the key and follow the host default" and was previously written literally, naming a variant that cannot resolve. Reachable two ways, both now pinned: an agent_overrides entry and a routing_tier_defaults entry. A bare effort.default does NOT reach a tiered agent (the #3531 tier ladder answers first), so a test written against `default` alone asserts nothing — that is pinned too. The plain-scalar decision moved into frontmatter.cts beside `scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting` rather than sitting next to it as a second, weaker predicate. `agentScalarNeedsDoubleQuoting` is a documented superset: it adds a trailing `:` (read as a nested mapping key, which fails the whole frontmatter), boolean/null words, and numeric-looking values including YAML 1.1 sexagesimal. Docs now state the cascade plainly: the gate is on effort being configured at all, not on the individual agent being named, so every generated OpenCode agent gets a variant line once any effort block exists. * test(#3706): assert the two frontmatterScalar copies cannot diverge A hand-picked adversarial corpus plus a fast-check property over YAML-significant strings, both run against bin/install.js and the live src copy. Verified the property can actually fail: mutating one copy's quoting rule is killed well inside the run budget. * fix(#3706): close the review findings — predicate, seam, and dead mirror Third review round; every item below was confirmed by execution. The scalar predicate was wrong in two families, both found by a round-trip property test rather than by reading. Basing it on scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting dropped the "first character must be alphanumeric" clause, so `~`, `.inf`, `.nan`, `+1`, `-0` and `.5` went out bare and came back as null/floats/ints; and that base predicate only inspects the FIRST character, so an embedded `: ` (a nested mapping, i.e. a parse error) or ` #` (a comment, i.e. silent truncation) also passed. Dates round out the set: `2026-08-25` opens alphanumeric, survives every other clause, and YAML resolves it to a Date. The property now asserts the contract directly over generated values instead of trusting an enumerated character list. The bin/install.js mirror is gone. Its premise was false — install.js already requires bin/lib at :65 — and it was unreachable besides: install.js's convertClaudeToOpencodeFrontmatter has no `isAgent: true` call site, because its agents path resolves converters from the compiled module. It was a third copy of the YAML rules serving a test rather than a caller, so the file is back to origin/next and the tests target the live copy only. Effort clamping moved to `clampEffortForHost`, which renderEffortArgv now delegates to. The layout was calling renderEffortArgv with a hardcoded 'argv' to borrow its clamp, which read as if the frontmatter key were gated on the invocation-time axis. It is not: claude declares effortSurface "argv" and independently bakes an effort: key. One capability table, one clamp, two channels that no longer pretend to be each other. Also corrects an earlier claim of mine: adding EFFORT_RENDERING.opencode would NOT have made `effort sync` write the wrong key, because it guards on the runtime name before it ever renders. The seam choice stands on other grounds. `effort sync` still skips OpenCode, but its stated reason claimed OpenCode "does not use effort: frontmatter", which this change makes false — so the message now says what is actually true. * docs(#3706): restate the changeset around the round-trip contract * fix(#3706): restore the changeset fragment belonging to #3809 An earlier commit in this branch picked the first file in .changeset/ by glob order instead of the fragment created for this issue, and overwrote agile-geese-squeak.md (PR 3815 / #3809) with this change's body. Restored verbatim from origin/next; this change's text now lives in its own patient-cranes-parade.md, where it was created. * feat(#3706): maintain the OpenCode variant key from effort sync Install bakes the resolved effort into OpenCode agent frontmatter as `variant:`, so `effort sync` has to maintain it or a config change only takes effect on reinstall — and its skip message claimed OpenCode does not use frontmatter effort at all, which this issue made false. cmdEffortSyncOpencode mirrors the codex branch: resolve per agent, clamp through the declared OpenCode capability, then write, strip, or skip. A null target means the key must not exist, which covers both "no effort configured" and "resolved to inherit or to an unsupported level" — the same states under which install writes nothing, so sync and install agree by construction. The frontmatter line-editors are key-parameterised rather than copied: setEffortFrontmatter / removeEffortFrontmatter are now thin wrappers over the same internals the variant path uses, and a test pins that the claude `effort:` behavior did not move. The child-process test harness fixes both HOME and USERPROFILE, so the hermetic-config assertions cannot pass vacuously on Windows. * fix(#3706): scope the frontmatter line editors to the matched block Found by the security review of the sync path, reported as correctness rather than vulnerability, and reproduced against pre-fix code before being fixed. Both editors matched the frontmatter with a regex that can match a block after a preamble, then derived the EOL and the opening-fence length from the START OF THE FILE. On a CRLF document with a preamble those disagree, the offsets shift by one byte, and the reassembled document comes back with a mangled fence (`---\rname: x`). Both now take the EOL from the matched block. `setFrontmatterKeyLine` additionally did a whole-file `/m` replace when the key already existed, gated only on the key being present in the frontmatter body — so a preamble line starting with the same key was rewritten instead of the frontmatter one. It now replaces inside the frontmatter span only, which is the hazard `removeFrontmatterKeyLine` already documented and guarded against. Neither is reachable from an install-written `gsd-*.md` (those begin at byte 0 with `---`), and both predate this change — but the editors are in this diff because #3706 key-parameterised them, so they are fixed here rather than left for the next caller to trip over. Three regression tests, each confirmed to fail against the pre-fix build. * fix(#3706): treat a present-but-empty key as present, and pin the real seam Fourth review round. The MAJOR one: both sync branches read the current value with `(.+?)`, which needs at least one character, so a key present with an EMPTY value read as "key absent". When the target was also null the code concluded "already correct" and skipped — leaving the key in the file, where it reads back as YAML `null`: exactly the unresolvable-variant state this change exists to prevent. Whitespace decided whether it fired, since `variant: ` matched and `variant:` did not. Presence and value are now separate questions at both the opencode and the claude branch. The OpenCode writer now follows the codex branch rather than the claude one: tmp file plus retryRenameSync with orphan cleanup, and a write failure skips that agent and is reported instead of aborting the sweep. Same granularity, same transient-Windows-lock exposure, so the hardened sibling was the right precedent. Also: the generic line-editors escape their interpolated key, the JSDoc stranded by the clampEffortForHost extraction is back on renderEffortArgv, and a cast that declared a nullable function as non-nullable is corrected. Tests close the gaps the review listed — empty value (both spellings), CRLF round-trip through write and strip, the symlink guard, a body line starting `variant:`, a file with no frontmatter, and the YAML classes that actually broke the predicate. The new layout-seam test drives the real stage() path and was verified to FAIL when `variant` is removed from the converter call; a seam test that survives cutting the seam is worse than none. * fix(#3706): clear the round-five review findings No blockers or majors this round; the repo's review gate is zero-tolerance, so the minors are cleared too. A duplicated key was only half-stripped: the strip regex had no `g` flag, so a frontmatter carrying the key twice lost one occurrence, reported success, and left the "a null target means the key must not exist" invariant false on disk — converging only on a second run. Such a document is already invalid YAML, so this is robustness rather than a live corruption path, but a successful sync has to leave the invariant true. A run in which every write failed still summarised as `ok`, so a caller could not tell "nothing to do" from "everything failed". The OpenCode branch now reports `failed` when any write failed. The write-failure path was also the newest code in the change with no coverage at all; it now has a test that injects the failure by monkeypatching the write, per CLAUDE.md §4, rather than by chmod — mode bits do not bite under root in CI. `CodexEffortSyncWriteFailure` is renamed `EffortSyncWriteFailure` now that two branches share it. Removed a guard on the claude concrete path that was provably unreachable — no member of EFFORT_SET renders null there, so it read as protection that did not exist. The claude inherit path's presence check is load-bearing and untouched. Three stale statements corrected: the OpenCode result shape matches codex's, not claude's, now that it emits write_failures; the `thread()` test helper now calls `clampEffortForHost` so it genuinely mirrors the layout instead of merely claiming to; and a test helper restored `USERPROFILE` by assignment, writing the literal string "undefined" into the environment on POSIX — it deletes now. * fix(#3706): converge the set path, degrade on unreadable files, preserve mode Rounds five and six of review. No blockers or majors; the review gate is zero-tolerance, so the minors are cleared too. `setFrontmatterKeyLine` was the mirror of a defect already fixed in its sibling: `remove` was made global, `set` was not, so on a frontmatter carrying the key twice it rewrote the first and left a stale second. Last-wins YAML readers honour the stale value while the sync's own first-occurrence read reports "in sync" — permanently non-converging. It now collapses to exactly one occurrence, in the position of the first, so ordinary single-occurrence documents stay byte-identical (verified across seven shapes before and after). An unreadable agent file used to throw and abort the entire sweep, while a failed WRITE in the same loop degraded into a report. The OpenCode branch now reports read failures alongside write failures; the claude branch degrades to a skip without a new result field, because its shape is long-standing and widely consumed and one bad file aborting the sweep is the actual defect. The tmp+rename publish dropped the original file's mode — a plain writeFileSync preserves it, a rename does not — so a 0600 agent came back 0644. Both the OpenCode and the codex branch now carry the original's permission bits across the publish, masked with 0o7777: the raw stat mode includes the file-type bits, and POSIX leaves those unspecified for chmod. Linux is the only OS the remote matrix runs, so relying on Darwin's tolerance would have been untestable here. Also documents the `from` contract on EffortSyncChange (null means the key was absent, '' means present with an empty value — a distinction earlier rounds introduced and then collapsed in the output), adds OpenCode to the docs paragraph enumerating where the key is omitted under inherit, and records in a comment that the 'failed' summary reaches only raw mode and does not change the exit code, which is a CLI-contract change affecting all three branches and is deliberately not made here. * fix(#3706): guard the codex read, close the tmp permission window, rename the failure type Round seven, plus one thing I found myself. `cmdEffortSyncCodex` still had an unguarded `fs.readFileSync` — a read fault on one agent exited 1 and aborted the whole sweep. The claude and opencode branches were both guarded earlier this round and codex was missed, with the unguarded read sitting ten lines above the chmod block the previous commit did edit. It now reports read failures the way the OpenCode branch does, and a read failure flips its summary to `failed` — which write failures did not do there either, so both are corrected for consistency. The tmp file was created at the default mode and only tightened afterwards, so a 0600 agent's contents sat in a 0644 file for the length of the publish. I measured the window rather than assuming it, then closed it by passing the mode at creation. The chmod after the write is deliberately RETAINED and commented: the `mode` option only applies when the file is actually created, so a leftover tmp from an earlier crashed run would be truncated and reused at its old mode, and the chmod is what corrects that. `EffortSyncWriteFailure` is renamed `EffortSyncFileFailure` — it was typing a `read_failures` array, the same naming-lie the `Codex…` prefix had last round. Also pins the codex mode preservation with a test. It only writes on a path that genuinely rewrites the file, so the fixture is an Anthropic-flavoured model pin the sync strips, and the test asserts the content changed before checking the mode — otherwise it would pass on a sync that did nothing. * fix(#3706): guard the claude writes and share one escaping rule The security sign-off caught a comment of mine that was factually wrong: the new claude read guard said the failure is folded in "like the write path in this same loop does", and there was no write guard in that loop. Rather than correct the sentence, both claude write sites are now guarded the way the read is — a failed file is skipped, the sweep continues, and the raw summary token flips to `failed`. The JSON shape stays frozen deliberately, because it is long-standing and widely consumed; the token is the channel that can carry the signal without a compatibility risk, which is the reviewer's own suggestion. That makes all three branches consistent: reads and writes guarded everywhere, per-file failures degrade instead of aborting, and every branch reports `failed` rather than `ok` when something did not sync. `setFrontmatterKeyLine` interpolated its value raw while the install-side writer quoted through the shared helpers — two writers of the same frontmatter key disagreeing on escaping, the divergence class this repo requires closed. They now share one rule. Verified no churn: all six effort levels are plain scalars and emit byte-identically, with claude's documented minimal-to-low clamp the only difference in the table, exactly as before. * fix(#3706): publish claude agent writes atomically too Both reviewers found this independently, and it is data loss rather than a reporting gap. The claude branch wrote in place, so `fs.writeFileSync`'s O_TRUNC meant a post-open fault left the agent file truncated or half-written: an injected ENOSPC produced an empty file, and under `ulimit -f` a 60000-byte agent came back as 512 bytes of wrong content. The guard added earlier this round then counted that destroyed file as `skipped`, which in JSON mode is indistinguishable from "already in sync" — so a caller would have read the sweep as clean while an agent on disk was corrupt. It now publishes the way the codex and opencode branches already do: write to a tmp file created at the original's masked mode, chmod, then retryRenameSync, with the tmp unlinked and the agent skipped on any failure. The corrupting case is gone rather than merely reported, which matters because this branch deliberately takes no new result key. I had claimed all three branches were consistent after the previous commit. That was true for degradation and reporting and not for atomicity; the reviewer caught the overclaim. It is true now. Also sorts the claude file list, which the other two branches already did — readdir order is platform-dependent, so leaving it unsorted made the reported `changes` ordering differ across machines for identical inputs. * chore(#3706): backfill the changeset PR number pr:0 placeholder replaced with the real PR now that gh api returned it. * test(#3706): kill the frontmatter mutants this change introduced CI's Stryker frontmatter shard scored 60.58 against a break floor of 62. The cause is documented in the lane's own config, from #1882: this PR added a multi-clause predicate to frontmatter.cts and exported the escaper, but the tests constraining them live in tests/runtime-converters.test.cjs, which that shard does not run — so every mutant in the new code was uncovered there even though the behaviour is tested elsewhere. The fix is assertions that kill real mutants, per the repo's own instruction, not a lowered floor and not a Stryker disable: scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs is untouched. Each clause of agentScalarNeedsDoubleQuoting now has a true case AND a near-miss that must answer the opposite way, so flipping the clause fails a specific named test — alnum-first against `a-b`, trailing `:` against `foo:bar`, embedded `: ` against `a:b`, embedded ` #` against `a#b`, the word list against `yes1`/`nullish`, the numeric forms against `1a`/`0xzz`, the timestamp against `2026-08-25x`, plus the case-insensitive spellings that pin the `i` flag. escapeDoubleQuoted is pinned on exact output, including a case constructed so that escaping in the wrong ORDER yields a different string. Two of my expectations were wrong and are asserted as the code actually behaves: `12:99` is NOT quoted, because the sexagesimal alternative never range-checks minutes and so does not match — which is right, since YAML would not read it as sexagesimal either; and `20260825` is quoted by the numeric clause rather than the timestamp one, being a bare integer. * chore(#3706): ratchet the frontmatter mutation floor to 65 The lane measured 66.67 on PR 3867 after the mutant-killing unit tests landed — above its pre-change 63.35 baseline, not merely recovered. Step 3 of this file's own HOW TO UPDATE procedure says to set minScore = floor(measured) - 1 in the same diff, so 62 becomes 65 and the improvement is locked in rather than left free to slide back. The ledger of measured scores now records the new measurement, why the shard broke in the first place (logic added to frontmatter.cts whose only tests lived in a file this lane does not run — the same trap the #1882 note describes), and one discrepancy: step 3 also says to update "the matching RATCHET_BASELINE entry", but no such declaration exists in this file. The name appears only in that comment, so minScore and the ledger are all there is to update. * fix(#3706): update RATCHET_BASELINE alongside the raised floor The ratchet test caught the previous commit: it raised COVERED['frontmatter'] .minScore to 65 without updating the baseline that mirrors it, which is exactly the mismatch that guard exists to make visible in review. I had claimed RATCHET_BASELINE did not exist. It does — in tests/mutation-matrix-ratchet.test.cjs, not in scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs, which is the only file I searched before concluding it was a stale reference. The ledger comment is corrected to say where it lives and to record that the guard caught the error rather than leaving my wrong claim on the record. * docs(#3706): put the mutation ledger entries back under their own dates The 2026-08-25 measurement was spliced into the middle of the 2026-06-14 list, so adr-parser, config-schema, active-workstream-store and core-utils ended up sitting under the wrong heading and misattributing their measurement dates. That ledger is what a future change reads to calibrate a floor, so a wrong date there is not cosmetic. Each measurement is now under the date it was taken. Also drops the first-person account of my own mistake from the entry — the factual half (where RATCHET_BASELINE lives, and that it is updated in the same diff) is what a reader needs; the confession is not. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-25 19:54:30 -04:00

sim	67335c498c	fix(#3841): express the anchor semantically so the pretty payload still verifies ... The remote matrix caught a regression I introduced in the previous commit. The anchor check was implemented as a byte-prefix match against IDENTITY_RAW_PREFIX, which describes the `--raw` wire format -- but `cmdRuntimeIdentity` without that flag pretty-prints at indent 2, and the classifier is handed BOTH serializations. Only the shell is restricted to `--raw`. The pre-existing test that runs the real verb with no flag went red: `+ 'unparseable' - 'ok'`. No local gate caught it. build:lib, eslint and lint:ci were green throughout, because none of them execute tests. The anchor now reproduces its two properties semantically instead of byte-wise, and both hold for either serialization: the payload begins at the first byte of stdout, and `packageName` serializes first. IDENTITY_RAW_PREFIX stays exported with its own tests -- it is the wire contract for the shell, not a general classifier predicate, and conflating those was the error. Adds the two rows the matrix was missing: the default pretty serialization verifies, and a pretty payload with `packageName` not first does not. The design and matrix now record that they enumerated only the inputs the SHELL produces and assumed the classifier's input set was the same.

sim	5e997de5f0	fix(#3841): honor the payload anchor in the classifier, dedup the fixture ... Three review findings, all fixed. The isolated security review found a SECOND divergence the design missed. The classifier parses structurally, so it accepted `packageName` at any key position; the shell's `case` is anchored at the start of stdout. For `{"note":"x","packageName":"<us>",...}` the classifier said ok and the shell said unverified -- a fail-open disagreement, and none of the original ten parity rows caught it because every one put `packageName` first. Certifying agreement that does not hold would have been worse than shipping no parity suite. The classifier now honors the anchor on its ok arm, which is what the module already claimed to do: IDENTITY_RAW_PREFIX is documented as "ANCHORED, never a substring search". A foreign packageName stays identity_mismatch wherever it appears, so that arm is untouched. Parity rows P11-P13 added. The spec review found the test matrix marked the empty-string `packageName` row as already covered. It was not -- the `.length > 0` guard is a distinct path from "no packageName key at all", which is tested. Added, and the matrix corrected to say it was wrong. The standards review flagged ~45 lines of fixture helpers duplicated verbatim between the two preamble describes. Extracted to one `makeIdentityFixture()`. Changeset rewritten: it described only the exit-code half of the diff. Refs #3841 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-25 11:36:59 -04:00
sim	3b8e4f3e5a	fix(#3841): parse the identity payload before consulting the probe exit code ... `classifyIdentityProbe` short-circuited on a non-zero exit BEFORE it looked at stdout, so a tool that had already proved its identity and merely exited non-zero was classified `no_identity_verb`. The launcher preamble that this module speaks for reads stdout only -- its command substitution discards the status -- so the two surfaces disagreed on exactly that input: shell `ok`, classifier `no_identity_verb`. Measured against the real snippet, not inferred. That matters because the classifier is the engine for the announced hard-fail phase and has no production caller yet. An install verified by today's warn phase would have been refused the moment hard-fail landed, in the phase where that stops the run rather than printing a line. Nothing recorded or tested the difference. The classifier moves rather than the shell: the shell is the shipped path with observable dependents, the classifier has none. The predecessor defence is untouched -- a usage screen yields no usable payload, so it still falls through to the exit-code branch. Adds the cross-surface parity test the gauntlet requires for two surfaces implementing one decision: ten probe behaviors driven through both the real snippet and the classifier, asserting they agree with each other. Surfaced by re-running the feature-implementation directive's design and QA steps against the code merged in #3848, which shipped without them.

Tom Boucher	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. Refs #3841 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * 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.

Tom Boucher	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 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * 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.

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.

Tom Boucher	aaf47c5fc2	fix(#3691): let every reviewer lane take a prompt cap, and make the documented global resolve (#3832) ... * test(#3691): failing-first coverage for the reviewer prompt budget No prompt cap can reach any CLI reviewer lane, by any configuration. Two independent defects compound: all nine `transport: spawn` lanes declare `promptBudgetKey: null`, so `budgetFor` returns on its first line; and the documented global `review.max_prompt_tokens` is advertised in the schema manifest but declared nowhere, so the resolver never materializes it and `budgetFor`'s fallback is dead code. Adds to tests/reviewer-config-federation.test.cjs, which already owns the per-reviewer budget config-set/config-get idiom: - a CLI lane inherits the global cap (RED: reports null) - an http lane with the -1 sentinel inherits the global cap (RED: reports null) - the resolved review surface carries max_prompt_tokens at all (RED: absent) - per-lane overrides the global on a CLI lane - the sentinel boundary: -1 inherits, 0 means do-not-trim and must NOT read as unset, 1 is the smallest real budget — the regression budgetFor's own comment warns about - anti-tightening pins that must stay green: an empty config leaves every lane null, the three existing budgeted lanes are unchanged, and config-set still rejects a per-reviewer key naming something that is not a declared lane - a fast-check property over the resolution contract itself, with -1, 0 and non-finite inputs generated explicitly rather than left to chance Every row was reproduced by hand against the real CLI before being written, so the RED/GREEN split is observed rather than predicted. Refs #3691 * fix(#3691): let every reviewer lane take a prompt cap, and make the global resolve No prompt cap could reach any CLI reviewer lane, by any configuration. Two independent defects compounded. The nine spawn-transport lanes — claude, coderabbit, antigravity, cursor, gemini, codex, kimi-code, opencode, qwen — declared `promptBudgetKey: null`, so `budgetFor` returned on its first line and `review-lane plan` reported `promptBudget: null` no matter what was configured. Each now declares `review.max_prompt_tokens_per_reviewer.<slug>` with the same `-1`-is-unset sentinel the three local-server lanes already use. Separately, the central `review.max_prompt_tokens` was listed in the schema manifest's validKeys and documented as a supported setting, but declared nowhere — the resolved surface is built from capability declarations plus the defaults manifest, and neither carried it. `configGet` returned undefined and `budgetFor`'s documented fallback was dead code. It is now declared with a `null` default, exactly as docs/CONFIGURATION.md already specified, so the default behavior is unchanged: nothing configured means nothing trims. Two things the diagnosis had not predicted, found and fixed while implementing: - `REVIEWER_LANES` in src/review-lane-descriptor.cts is a second, hardcoded registration site that `mergeReviewerLanes` prefers over the capability registry on a slug collision. Editing only the capability files left every CLI lane still null. Both sites now agree. - The generated `gsd-core/bin/lib/capability-registry.cjs` was stale and masked the capability edits; regenerated with `npm run gen:capability-registry` rather than hand-edited. docs/CONFIGURATION.md said "Only lanes that declare a budget key accept one — today ollama, lm_studio and llama_cpp". That is false as of this change and is corrected rather than left to rot. The trim-versus-refuse question the issue raises is deliberately not taken up here: the refusal path already exists for the case that matters — a reviewer whose minimum set exceeds its budget is skipped rather than sent a misleading prompt — and trimming above that floor is the documented, shipped design of the feature. Changing it would alter behavior for the three lanes that already work, which is not what the issue asks for. Fixes #3691 * fix(#3691): document the new global and narrow an invariant this change obsoleted The full suite surfaced two consequences of giving every CLI lane a budget key. `review.max_prompt_tokens` entered CONFIG_DEFAULTS without a matching entry in the planning-config reference, which config-field-docs guards. Documented, including the sentinel semantics a reader needs: a per-lane value overrides the global, `-1` means unset and inherits it, and `0` means "do not trim that lane" and is not unset. The #2797 federation guard asserted that "a lane with no model flag and no host owns no config keys". That held only because budget keys existed solely on the three local-server lanes, all of which have hosts. A lane can now legitimately own a config key for a third reason, so qwen tripped it. The assertion is narrowed rather than weakened: such a lane must still own no model key and no host key, and may own at most its own `review.max_prompt_tokens_per_reviewer.<slug>` — never another lane's. That is strictly more specific in the dimensions that still matter. Proven to still bite: hypothetically giving qwen a `review.models.qwen` key fails it with `model/host: review.models.qwen`. The name and comment cite #3691 for why the premise changed, so a reader sees a deliberate narrowing, not erosion. Checked the sibling assertions in that describe block; the other three do not rest on the obsolete premise and are untouched. Refs #3691 * fix(#3685): port the write-flag content-change contract to its three sibling sites #3685 fixed `phase complete`'s `roadmap_updated` / `state_updated`, which reported `fs.existsSync(path)` rather than whether the transaction wrote anything. Three sibling sites carried the identical defect and are ported here. - `cmdPhaseRemove` reported `roadmap_updated: true`, hardcoded. `updateRoadmapAfterPhaseRemoval` now returns whether the content changed and the flag reports it. #2640/#2974 already fixed `state_updated` at this same call site and left this one behind, so the correct shape was adjacent. - `cmdMilestoneComplete` reported `state_updated: fs.existsSync(statePath)` — byte-identical to #3685's bug in a different command. - `cmdMilestoneComplete` reported `milestones_updated: true`, hardcoded, never consulting the MILESTONES.md write. `gsd-core/workflows/remove-phase.md:100` extracts `roadmap_updated` for display and never branches on it, so the flip from always-true to content-based changes no workflow behavior. Verified by reading the step, not assumed. One trap found while implementing: the obvious in-memory `finalContent !== originalStateContent` comparison — copying `cmdPhaseComplete`'s shipped shape verbatim — gives a FALSE POSITIVE for milestone completion. `platformWriteSync` normalizes Markdown at write time, and the milestone-closure transform regenerates `## Current Position` fresh on every call, so its pre-normalize output always differs from the already-normalized file on disk even when the persisted bytes are identical. The comparison is therefore made against the post-write on-disk content. `cmdPhaseComplete`'s own comparisons are left untouched — their repeat-no-op tests pass, so they are not exposed to this artifact. `milestones_updated` has no reachable no-op: the MILESTONES.md write unconditionally appends an entry every call. Only the true direction is pinned, documented inline rather than faked with a passing test. Refs #3685 * fix(#3685): compare write-flag content through the writer's own normalizer An independent reviewer disproved a claim made while porting #3685's contract to its sibling sites: that `cmdPhaseComplete`'s comparisons were not exposed to the Markdown-normalization artifact already diagnosed in `cmdMilestoneComplete`. `platformWriteSync` normalizes on write — CRLF stripped, blank-line runs collapsed, a blank line inserted after a heading, a single trailing newline enforced. Every flag that compares the PRE-normalization in-memory string against the on-disk pre-image can therefore report a change when the persisted bytes are identical. `cmdMilestoneComplete` had been worked around by re-reading the file after the write; the other sites compared raw strings. All of them now go through one exported seam, `contentChangedAfterNormalize(filePath, before, after)`, which normalizes both sides exactly as the writer does. That removes the extra disk read the milestone workaround needed, and makes the sites agree by construction rather than by four independent implementations of one rule — the divergence the repo names as an anti-pattern. Reachability, stated precisely rather than uniformly: the seam is load-bearing at `cmdPhaseComplete`'s `roadmapUpdated`, `requirementsUpdated` and `stateUpdated`, where section-rewrite logic genuinely regenerates content into a different-but-normalization-equivalent shape. At `updateRoadmapAfterPhaseRemoval` it is defense-in-depth: the no-match branch never reassigns `content`, so the raw comparison was already correct there. The first analysis claimed the reverse; this is the corrected finding. Also fixes an unsound test premise the remote suite caught. The byte-identity precondition in `roadmap_updated is false when ROADMAP.md comes out byte-identical` asserted against a hand-authored, un-normalized fixture — so the very first write reformatted it and the file could not come back identical. The fixture is now written already-normalized, so the assertion compares a normalized pre-image against a normalized post-image and still fails if the flag regresses to a hardcoded `true`. Not platform-specific; it reproduces on macOS too, and the earlier local check simply never exercised it. The sibling true-direction and milestone tests were checked for the same premise and do not share it — they assert `notEqual`, or compare two post-write states produced through the same normalizing seam.

Tom Boucher	7a41248c4f	fix(#3685): report phase-complete write flags from the transaction, not the filesystem (#3826) ... * test(#3685): failing-first regression coverage for phase-complete write flags `phase complete` reports `roadmap_updated`/`state_updated` from `fs.existsSync(path)`, so both read `true` whenever the file merely exists — including when the transaction wrote nothing. Add the regression tests that prove it, plus the negative-space and true-direction pins, before the fix. New in tests/phase.test.cjs: - roadmap_updated is false when the transaction rewrites nothing (FAILS today) - state_updated is false when the transaction rewrites nothing, and stays false on a third consecutive run (FAILS today) - both flags are true when the transaction genuinely rewrites (pins the true direction so the fix cannot be tightened into always-false) - each flag stays false when its file is absent The STATE.md cases pin the clock via GSD_TEST_MODE + GSD_NOW_MS (src/clock.cts:43-70) because syncStateFrontmatter stamps a millisecond-resolution `last_updated:` on every write, which would otherwise make the no-op unobservable. Also strengthens four pre-existing `=== true` assertions on these fields that passed vacuously: each now pairs the flag assertion with a content-changed assertion against a pre-call snapshot, so the `true` is earned. Refs #3685 * fix(#3685): report phase-complete write flags from the transaction, not the filesystem `phase complete` computed `roadmap_updated` and `state_updated` as `fs.existsSync(path)`, so both read `true` for any project that had the file at all — including a run that rewrote nothing. The flags are the only signal a caller has that the rollup landed, so a no-op was indistinguishable from a successful write and a stale ROADMAP went unnoticed until something downstream read wrong numbers. Both flags now reflect whether that file's content actually changed in the transaction, computed at the existing `writes.push({filePath, before, after})` sites — the same contract `requirements_updated` has honored since #2316-3, and the same correction #2640/#2974 already applied to `phase remove`.

Tom Boucher	fb9823e1e1	fix(#3689): refuse a ledger write when the rendered table disagrees with its JSON (#3828) ... * test(#3689): failing-first coverage for the ledger table/JSON agreement guard `.planning/WINDOWS.md` renders its markdown table from the fenced JSON that is its source of truth, but nothing checks the two still agree before a write overwrites the table. `windows append` / `waive` / `fixed` therefore discard a drifted cell silently, and erase a table-only row entirely, both at exit 0. Adds to tests/broken-windows.test.cjs: - five refusal cases that fail today, covering all three write commands, a drifted cell, a table-only row, and drift on a non-first row; each asserts the typed reason via GSD_JSON_ERRORS and that the file is byte-identical after the refusal, so a guard that refuses only after writing cannot pass - six anti-tightening pins that must stay green: an agreeing ledger, the first-write ENOENT path, #2893 trailing-prose preservation, #3657 3-backtick fence tolerance, escaped pipes and backslashes in a description, and the zero-entry placeholder table - a fast-check property pinning the round trip the guard depends on — extractTableRegion(renderLedger(l)) === renderTable(l.entries) — because a false refusal on a clean ledger would be worse than the bug Fixtures are built by running the real CLI and then perturbing only the table, so frontmatter and JSON stay consistent and the pre-existing counts cross-check still passes; a hand-written ledger would pass these for the wrong reason. Refs #3689 * fix(#3689): refuse a ledger write when the rendered table disagrees with its JSON `.planning/WINDOWS.md` renders its markdown table from the fenced JSON that is its source of truth, and `writeLedgerAtomic` regenerated that table on every `windows append` / `waive` / `fixed` without ever checking the two still agreed. A hand-edited cell was silently reverted; a row that existed only in the table vanished entirely. Both at exit 0, with nothing on stdout to say so. The write seam now compares the on-disk table against `renderTable(<entries parsed from the on-disk JSON>)` before regenerating anything, and refuses with a typed `windows_ledger_table_drift` error naming the drifted row ids and the remedy. Because the check sits at the single write seam, all three commands inherit it, and the file is left byte-identical on refusal. Deliberately not enforced in `parseLedger`: hardening the read would break `windows status` and the ship gate on exactly the ledgers an operator needs to inspect to diagnose the drift. Two hazards handled explicitly, both discovered in review of the first draft: - The pre-image read now distinguishes ENOENT from every other errno, per the #1950-H2 fail-closed-on-unreadable invariant `readLedgerOrNull` already honors. A bare catch would have let an unreadable pre-image skip the guard and write anyway. - Both the entries baseline and the table extraction pass the pre-image's own frontmatter `total_count` to `locateJsonBlock`. Without that hint the no-expectation fallback binds to the LATEST fenced JSON array in the file, which is the operator's prose block whenever that prose contains one — the exact case #2893 exists for — refusing every write on a ledger that never drifted. A regression test covers it. Also extends the CONTEXT.md Broken Windows Ledger glossary entry: the table is a third projection of the same source, cross-checked at the write seam, and the frozen REASON enum gains WINDOWS_LEDGER_TABLE_DRIFT. Fixes #3689 * fix(#3689): bind prose preservation to the pre-image's own ledger block Found while reviewing the table drift guard: the #2893 trailing-prose preservation in `writeLedgerAtomic` passed `ledger.total_count` — the POST-mutation count — as the disambiguation hint for a lookup over the PRE-image. On an append the pre-image holds N entries while the hint says N+1, so the hint can never match and `locateJsonBlock` falls through to its last-array-shaped-span fallback. When the operator's trailing prose itself contains a fenced JSON array — the ordinary case #2893 was written to protect — that prose block wins the fallback. The preserved region is then computed from the prose fence rather than the ledger fence, and everything between them, including the operator's own text above the array, is silently dropped on the next write. Reproduced against the real CLI: a prose block reading "Operator notes above the array, IMPORTANT DO NOT LOSE THIS TEXT." plus a fenced 3-element array came back empty after one `windows append`. Both the prose lookup and the drift guard now share one pre-image-derived `preImageExpectedTotal`, taken from the pre-image's own frontmatter, so they bind to the same and correct block. The existing trailing-prose regression test is strengthened to assert the prose survives byte-for-byte rather than merely that the command exited 0 — asserting only the exit code is why this was invisible. Refs #3689 * fix(#3689): anchor table extraction on the header row, not a line-prefix scan Independent review found the drift guard could brick a ledger nobody had hand-edited. `validateDescription` accepts a description containing a raw newline, and `renderTable`'s cell escaping covers backslash and pipe but not newlines — so such a description renders a row that physically spans two file lines, the second of which does not begin with `|`. `extractTableRegion` bounded the table by walking backward over the contiguous run of `|`-prefixed lines, so it stopped at that split. In the common case where the row's tail is the last line before the fence it returned null, and every subsequent append/waive/fixed was refused with "table region could not be located" — permanently, with no CLI recovery path, on a ledger that never drifted. A false refusal is worse than the bug this guard exists to fix. The region is now anchored on the header row `renderTable` always emits, running from its last line-start occurrence to the end of the pre-fence text. The boundary is the fence rather than a line prefix, so a multi-line row is captured whole, re-renders byte-identically, and compares equal. The header literal is hoisted to one constant both `renderTable` branches and the extractor share, so the two surfaces cannot drift apart. Deliberately unchanged: `cell()` and `validateDescription`. The cosmetic corruption a newline causes in the rendered table is pre-existing, and either escaping it or rejecting the input would change what existing ledgers render to or what input is accepted. Also closes a coverage gap the standards review raised: the non-ENOENT pre-image read branch — the one that stops an unreadable file from bypassing the guard — now has a behavioral test that injects EACCES by monkeypatching `fs.readFileSync` for that one path and restoring it in a `finally`, never by `chmod 0o000` (root ignores mode bits, so that would pass with zero coverage). The #3689 property generator no longer strips newlines out of descriptions, which is why this was invisible to it.

Reachable only through the exported `extractTableRegion` — `writeLedgerAtomic` reaches it after `parseFrontmatterStrict` has already succeeded, so the candidate region begins with the `---` frontmatter fence and a match at index 0 is impossible. Latent rather than live, but an exported `for(;;)` that can fail to advance is not something to ship. Confirmed by running the pre-fix compiled function on `TABLE_HEADER_LINE + 'X\n' + <a valid json fence>` as a backgrounded child: it was still alive after five seconds having printed nothing, and had to be killed. Post-fix the same input returns `null` promptly — correct, since the sole header occurrence fails the end-of-line test and no valid header exists. A regression here would stall the suite rather than fail it, so the new test also asserts the returned value rather than relying on termination alone. No wall-clock assertion is involved. Refs #3689 * test(#3034): publish the lane trace before the done-file that releases dependents `preservesSelectionOrderParallelDespiteCompletionOrder` forces a reverse completion order with a dependency chain rather than sleeps: each stub lane waits on `done-<dep>` before finishing. It then ended with touch "$RUN_DIR/done-$slug" echo "end:$slug" >> "$TRACE" Those are two unsynchronized operations in separate shell processes. A dependent's `wait_for_file` unblocks the instant the upstream's `touch` lands, but the upstream's own `echo` has not necessarily run — so if the upstream is descheduled between the two, the dependent can run its whole body and append its `end:` line first. The done-file was published before the state it signals. Observed on the remote runner as `[end:claude, end:codex, end:gemini]` where selection order demands `[end:claude, end:gemini, end:codex]`. The failure was in the fixture's own self-check, before it reached the assertion #3034 exists to make. Not a flake and not a wall-clock margin: this branch passed the full suite twice at 14f494644 and 90c5d7a03, and the only delta in the failing run was one added test in tests/broken-windows.test.cjs — an unrelated module. Adding load elsewhere in the suite was enough to invert it, which is what a real race does. Swapping the pair establishes a genuine happens-before: anything a dependent can observe is written before the file that releases it. A comment records why, so the order is not tidied back. The production path is unaffected and was independently confirmed correct — `invoke_reviewers` joins every lane with `wait`, then aggregates by iterating DISPATCH_SLUGS in selection order, reading per-slug result files. It consumes no completion-order signal at all. Refs #3034 --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-24 17:43:25 -04:00

Tom Boucher	cf15682d1c	enhance(#3028): responsive Markdown separators instead of fixed-width rules (#3789) ... * feat(#3028): responsive Markdown separators instead of fixed-width rules Stage banners, checkpoints, completion and error panels used fixed-width runs of box-drawing characters -- a 53-column heavy rule and a 62-column double-line box. Those runs are ordinary text to a Markdown-rendering host, so in a narrower pane they wrap and the border comes apart from the heading it framed. Shipped content now emits an ATX heading for a titled section and a blank-line-delimited --- for a break between sections, both of which adapt to the available width. The same convention is applied to the three code sites that built these strings at runtime: the UAT checkpoint renderer, the milestone-close audit report, and the TDD review checkpoint table. Removing the box also removes its only reason to exist -- the east-asian-width padding helpers that kept its right border aligned (checkpointBoxLine, displayWidth, isWideCodePoint, ZERO_WIDTH_MARK_RE, CHECKPOINT_BOX_WIDTH). RTL directional isolation is unchanged. The convention is specified in gsd-core/references/ui-brand.md and enforced across all shipped content by tests/responsive-separators.test.cjs. Refs #3028 * test(#3028): pin the heading form in checkpoint and audit-report assertions These suites asserted the exact box borders and the 62-column padded banner interior. With the box gone they assert the ### heading form, the --- break and the bolded instruction line, and each now carries a positive assertion that no box character remains -- which is what pins the fix rather than merely tolerating it. Language coverage is converted, not dropped: Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Hindi and Arabic all still assert their rendered banner, and the Arabic case still asserts the RTL directional isolates the box removal must not disturb. Adds a case for a banner longer than the old inner width, which previously produced a ragged border and now has none. Refs #3028 * chore(#3028): acknowledge execute-plan.md growth from the checkpoint display spec The checkpoint_protocol display spec described the drawn box; it now describes the heading, the --- break and the bolded action prompt, which costs 22 bytes (40111 -> 40133, 827 under the cap). Appended to the existing #3370 fragment rather than filed as a new one: a growth ack keys on the bare filename and #3370 already declares execute-plan.md, so a second source naming it would be a hard duplicate-key error. Same supersede-by-append route #3370 took for the spent #2652 fragment. Refs #3028 * docs(#3028): state the load-bearing half of the separator rule, and amend the zh-CN reference Review found three things. The rule as first written demanded a blank line above AND below every ---. Only the one above is load-bearing: it is what stops CommonMark reading the rule as a setext underline for the line above. The one below is cosmetic, because a thematic break is a leaf block. The rule now says that, with the reason, instead of asserting a stricter form the content does not keep. The zh-CN reference had received the mechanical box-to-heading swap but none of the prose behind it: it still claimed a 62-character checkpoint width and still listed --- among forbidden mixed banner styles, so it contradicted the convention it was translating. It now carries the separator section, the setext reasoning, the unconditional-vs-per-runtime rationale and a corrected anti-pattern list, in Chinese. The user guide asserted that a heading is not a degradation anywhere. That is an assertion, not a demonstration. It now says what was actually traded away in a plain terminal, points at the recorded rationale, and invites the report that would justify the capability flag instead.

Tom Boucher	107eb8c1d9	feat(#3753): run docs guards on the PR that changes the docs they read (#3787) ... A PR whose diff is entirely under docs/ runs zero tests, so a guard whose INPUT is shipped prose cannot protect the PR lane of the diffs it exists to check. Its only firing opportunity is after merge, on the shared branch -- which is how next went red on dacae9273 while the PR that caused it (#3746) was green on every check. The docs-lint job in .github/workflows/docs-required.yml -- an ALREADY-REQUIRED context -- now selects and runs the docs guards that read the specific docs files the PR changed. scripts/docs-guard-registry.cjs test file -> the docs paths it reads (63) scripts/select-docs-guards.cjs pure (changedPaths, registry) -> test files scripts/lint-docs-guard-registration.cjs drift guard, wired into lint:ci scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs is NOT touched -- `git diff origin/next --` on it is empty -- so #764's saving stands and its 21 pinning tests are untouched. Selection: exact path; trailing-slash directory prefix (boundary-checked -- docs/adrenaline.md does NOT match docs/adr/, which a naive startsWith gets wrong); and '*' for the 6 entries that walk docs/ generally or read a computed path. Unknown maps to '*' -- guessing narrow is how a guard silently stops running. Measured: a typo fix selects 6 of 63; docs/AGENTS.md selects 12; docs/COMMANDS.md selects 18. Four things this got wrong first, each found by an independent reviewer or by probe, and each having been asserted safe in a comment: 1. The registry started as a RULE in ci-test-scope.cjs's RULES, on the theory that classify()'s !codeChanged normalization made it inert. True for docs-ONLY diffs; false for MIXED docs+code diffs, where codeChanged is true and the normalization never runs: node scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs --files "docs/a.md src/semver.cts" with the RULE: 25 targeted_tests origin/next: 3 targeted_tests Category error: RULES is the scoped lane's input; a docs-guard registry is a lane manifest for a consumer that never calls classify(). Extracted; pinned by value. 2. The second attempt was a dedicated workflow with paths: [docs/**]. Such a workflow never reports on a non-docs PR, so it can never be a required context without hanging every non-docs PR -- and a non-required check does not block a merge, so the guard would have been advisory and #3753 unfixed. docs-required.yml already has no paths: filter, already supplies the required docs-lint context, already computes docs_changed, and already ran one docs guard gated on it. Generalizing that step needs no ruleset edit at all. 3. The registry and the drift lint were built from ONE path-segment heuristic, so both were blind identically -- and blind at the guard that motivated the issue. The reader-call regex required a character BEFORE its keyword, so a callee named exactly read( / load( / parse( / doc( / file( / content( could never match; and only an INLINE path.join(ROOT,'docs','X.md') argument was caught, missing the two-step-via-variable form -- the MAJORITY spelling -- plus template literals and concatenation. Detector 1 fired on 14 of ~450 files, so 35 genuine guards sat unregistered while the lint reported 0 violations, including cursor-reviewer (reads docs/COMMANDS.md, asserts .includes('--cursor')) and inventory-headings-countfree. The "accepted blind spot" this shipped with was the common case, not a fringe. 4. With detection fixed the true population is 115 files: 63 genuine guards, 52 incidental. Running all 63 in a REQUIRED check on a one-line typo fix is the cost #764 exists to avoid -- install.test.cjs is 7840 lines and reads exactly one docs file, docs/AGENTS.md, for its frontmatter. Dropping it reproduces the bug; running it for a typo elsewhere is waste. Hence the map. Then a second review round found six more, all fixed here: - fragment-single-edit-propagation.install.test.cjs was EXEMPTED as "overlay fixture only". False: it reads the real docs/registries/eos.json and asserts on a registry entry name, and reads the real ADR-0001 and asserts its H1. A docs-only PR touching either would have gone green and red next -- #3753 shipping again, from inside the fix for it. Now registered against both paths, and all 52 remaining exemptions were re-audited one by one. - The SUITES-collision guard compared RAW registry keys, but run-tests.cjs strips a leading `tests/` BEFORE its suite check. So it caught 'all' and missed 'tests/all' -- the only spelling that can actually occur, since every key carries the prefix. One typo would have run all 824 test files inside the required job. Now normalized the same way run-tests.cjs normalizes. - The lint failed OPEN on an unreadable tests dir or candidate file: 0 violations, ok:true. A guard that cannot read its input must never report success. - The exemption ratchet gated identity only, so a baselined file that later STARTED asserting on shipped docs stayed exempt silently -- 52 permanently blind files. The baseline now fingerprints the docs paths each exempted file references and fails when that set changes, naming what changed. - The exemption marker was still honored inside a multi-line template literal in the header window. The scanner now tracks template-literal and block-comment state. - `git diff --name-only | grep '^docs/'` silently dropped C-quoted non-ASCII docs paths, making docs_changed=false a green zero-guard check. Both call sites now pass -c core.quotepath=false. - The run step was gated on hashFiles(), which a force-committed .docs-guard-tests.txt would satisfy. The step now rm -f's both scratch files first and gates on an output it sets itself. Three empty states, deliberately distinct, because conflating them rebuilds #3753: an empty or malformed registry HARD-FAILS; docs changed with no guard covering them logs and skips; no docs change is already gated. The middle state must never be expressed as an empty --files-from, which prints `no tests in suite "all"` and exits 0 -- a green check that guarded nothing. With the current registry that state is unreachable, because the six '*' entries always match; the branch is kept as defensive handling for a future registry and says so. timeout-minutes: 15 bounds the required job against a hanging fork-supplied test; it had none. npm ci was added because the job never installed dependencies -- the previous single-file step got away without it, the registry does not. docs/contributing/docs-guard-registration.md documents the rule, following its sibling cross-platform-portability-rules.md, and CONTRIBUTING.md's CI Test Quality Checks table links to it. It is also load-bearing: without a docs/ file in the diff this PR would not have triggered its own lane, shipping an unexercised change to a required check. One unrelated fix, included because this PR surfaced it and CLAUDE.md forbids deferring a defect found while working. On this branch's first CI run, `full test (windows-latest, 24, shard 3/3)` was CANCELLED at exactly 30 minutes; tests were still passing 0.8s before the cancel, so it is a wall-clock timeout, not a hang, and a cancelled job reddens `Required tests`. The cause is not this PR's test file, which costs ~60ms. Shard composition is unstable: adding ONE file to the unit suite reshuffled 115 of 268 files between shards, and shard 3 drew a heavier mix. Underneath that is a real pre-existing defect. tests/ci-test-job-timeout-budget.test.cjs requires every lane's budget to be >= 1.5x its MEASURED cost -- "a lane that got slower must be re-budgeted, not excused" -- and its test-full entry recorded 19m from a windows-22 shard. That is stale. Measured on `next` with none of this PR's changes present: 26m18s (run 32614439702, windows-latest/24 shard 3/3), 23m36s and 23m17s on shard 2/3. So the lane costs ~26m and the 30-minute cap carried 1.14x headroom, not 1.5x. The gate had been out of compliance with its own rule; this PR was merely the file addition that reshuffled shard 3 past the cliff. Fixed as that file prescribes: measuredMinutes 19 -> 27 with fresh evidence, and test-full timeout-minutes 30 -> 45. The rule's minimum for 27m is 41; 45 is deliberately above it because the reshuffle means per-shard worst case moves run to run, and a budget pinned to the exact minimum would be re-breached by the next test file anyone adds. Only that one job's timeout changed; test.yml's scope, matrix and steps are untouched, so #764's saving is unaffected. Raising that cap let the Windows shard finish (28m45s, inside 45) and uncovered a real failure the 30-minute cancel had been masking: `new quick-task branch branches off origin/main (#2916)` died with `outcome=timed_out exitCode=null`, SIGTERM, at the 15000ms bound. tests/quick-branching.test.cjs:149 `runStep` runs a `#!/usr/bin/env bash` script executing MULTIPLE git commands, but was bound to GIT_TIMEOUT_MS (15000) -- the norm for a SINGLE git plumbing call. tests/helpers/timeouts.cjs already documents this exact failure and exists to fix it: HOOK_FANOUT_TIMEOUT_MS was created after PR #3285 recorded "outcome=timed_out exitCode=null at exactly the 15000ms probe bound while every other lane passed the same commit", and calls that "a bound sized for the wrong class, not a slow machine". Our failure is that case verbatim, so both sites move to the class norm rather than to a bigger number. The same class also failed on `next` itself 21 hours earlier -- run 32608945654, windows-latest/24 shard 1/3, `plan touching only src/ in a submodule project keeps worktree isolation ENABLED` -- where tests/worktree-safety.test.cjs:5845 `runGate` fans out to `git config --file .gitmodules` under a hardcoded 30000. Fixed too, since it is a defect in the tree regardless of which branch surfaced it. A survey of the whole tests/ tree found the same class-mismatch at further bash fan-out sites bound under 60000ms, and the maintainer approved sweeping them rather than leaving them latent to surface the same way one at a time. 16 fan-out sites across 16 files now use the class norm. The sweep is class-correctness, not raising numbers until things pass. Sites were moved ONLY where the bash body demonstrably spawns something (git, node, npm, a CLI); self-contained shell snippets were left where they are, and are listed as deliberately unchanged: pure if/printf bodies (copilot-install), pure array/case builtins (code-review-pipeline-regression:638), a documented pure-shell gsd_run stub (host-integration), single-process hook calls (workflow-guard:222/271/302), and a deliberately tight 5000ms fast-check hook (gsd-write-guard.property). Nothing was lowered. process-seam.test.cjs:513 (literal 300) is untouched on purpose -- it tests timeout BEHAVIOR, so raising it would destroy what it asserts. Shared file-level constants were the trap here, and were handled per file rather than by redefinition: GIT_TIMEOUT_MS has ~15 users in git-base-branch and only 1 is a fan-out; WORKTREE_TIMEOUT_MS has 16 users in worktree.test.cjs and 3 are; PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS has several in three more files. In each the CALL SITE was changed and the constant left alone, so no single-plumbing-call site silently inherited a 60s bound. The one exception is hooks-opt-in.test.cjs, where HOOK_TIMEOUT_MS has exactly one consumer -- spawnHook, the fan-out itself -- so redefining it is identical in effect and reads better. Only two of these sites have actually been observed failing. The rest cite that shared class and those two run ids rather than inventing evidence of their own.

Behruz Nassre Esfahani	a44d513566	fix(#3712): confine in-process installs to a sandboxed HOME (#3725) ... * fix(#3712): confine in-process installs to a sandboxed HOME A runtime kind may declare a global `home` override resolved from os.homedir() rather than from the caller's configDir — codex's skills kind (`home: ".agents"`, ADR-1239 / #2088) is the only live case. Sandboxing configDir/targetDir does not contain it, and assertDestWithinConfigHome cannot see the class: that gate confines a destSubpath to whatever root it is handed, and here the root IS the escaped home. So an in-process caller that forgot to sandbox HOME wrote to, and pruned gsd-* entries from, the developer's REAL ~/.agents/skills. tests/agent-descriptor-parity.install.test.cjs's K1 loop did exactly that: it iterates every agents-kind runtime (codex included) with a sandboxed targetDir and an un-sandboxed HOME. Reproduced against a canary home on next @ adb46cdd8 — 71 gsd-* skill dirs deleted, a foreign `cloudflare` skill surviving, suite still exit 0. It is silent because the runtime's own config home is untouched, so the manifest keeps reporting a healthy install. FIVE writers resolve a kind `home` and then destroy under it. Three are reachable today — installRuntimeArtifacts, uninstallRuntimeArtifacts (install-engine.cts) and applySurface (surface.cts). Two are descriptor-dependent and guarded against a future descriptor change rather than a present escape: installOpencodeFamilySkills (behind the combined-family early return) and installAgentsKindStandalone. Those two are scoped to the single kind each destroys — passing the whole layout made codex's unrelated skills override trip a writer that never touches it. - src/test-home-guard.cts: refuse when a run under a test runner cannot be shown to have sandboxed HOME. NODE_TEST_CONTEXT (set by `node --test`) gates it, so installs outside a Node test context are untouched; GSD_TEST_MODE is unusable, as several candidate files including the offender never set it. Homes are compared by FILESYSTEM IDENTITY (st_dev + st_ino), not by pathname: path.resolve() resolves neither symlinks nor case, and realpath returns a canonical pathname that two routes to one directory can still disagree on (bind mounts). Verified on macOS/APFS — HOME=/users/<name> made the strings differ while naming the same directory, and the lexical form ALLOWED a write into the physical real home. FAILS CLOSED: a pair is "different" only when both identify, or one is definitively absent (ENOENT/ENOTDIR) while the other identifies; every other errno is "cannot tell" and refuses. Only when neither home identifies is a marker consulted, and it carries the sandbox PATH and must equal the home in effect — a boolean checked first let an ambient or stale value disarm the guard. - helpers: promote sandboxHome() out of its two byte-identical private copies, which is also what makes them record the sandbox; the three withFakeHome() helpers record it too. The marker NAME is duplicated as a bare string rather than required from the compiled guard, keeping helpers.cjs's documented no-built-lib-at-import-time contract; a test pins the two together. - agent-descriptor-parity: sandbox HOME across the K1 loop. - helpers-process-isolation: #3156's canary asserts on <home>/.gsd only, and its `--cursor --local` spawn cannot reach `.agents` at all, so an assertion added there would pass with all confinement removed. Add a discriminating row — a `--codex --global` spawn against a seeded ambient home — which also asserts the runtime still declares the override. Its check is a sampled inventory (dir names + each SKILL.md), not a tree compare. - install-write-confinement: predicate rows through the deps seam, covering the symlinked HOME, ambient and stale markers, and each sameDirectory branch (both-identify, one-absent, neither-identifiable), plus wiring rows that drive the REAL entrypoints so deleting a guard call site is red. Verified: guard fires end-to-end against a real un-sandboxed HOME (exit 1, zero deletions); the case-variant fail-open reproduced on APFS before the fix and refuses after; K1 file 29/29 green with skills intact; mutation-tested — each of the three reachable call sites, lexical-only comparison, and treating an unknown errno as "absent" each take exactly one row red, with every mutation echoed back; the process-isolation row negative-controlled by reverting installerEnv to its pre-#3156 leak (16/0 -> 13/3); a full npm test leaves ~/.agents/skills at 71. Stated residual: the two descriptor-dependent writers have no wiring test, because no runtime declares a `home` override on those kinds and neither can be exercised without inventing a descriptor.

On Windows os.tmpdir() is %LOCALAPPDATA%\Temp — inside the user's home — so every sandbox a test creates is a descendant of the real home, and "does this land inside the real home?" answers yes for the safe case and the dangerous one alike. POSIX conceals this: /tmp and /var/folders both sit outside $HOME. Add the missing conjunct: a destination inside the real home is allowed only when it also sits beneath a HOME that was sandboxed away from the passwd home. Both halves are required — dropping the first re-admits a plain un-sandboxed install, and dropping the second decays into the "is HOME sandboxed?" check the module rejects, which a layout resolved before the sandbox walks straight through. Each is mutation-proven by a row that goes red without it. Also covers the two fail-closed branches of the new exemption, which survived mutation to `true` with the suite green, and avoids `<user>` in a docblock — the prompt-injection scanner reads it as a delimiter tag. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3712): close three writer/rollback gaps found reviewing the whole PR Cross-AI review of the full PR (not just the round's delta) surfaced three ways the guard could still be defeated: - The nested-sandbox exemption trusted the SPELLING of a destination. With HOME sandboxed to a directory inside the real home — legitimate on Windows — an aliased `.agents` (symlink, junction, subordinate bind mount) beneath it redirected an allowed path into the real home. Decide containment on the path the write RESOLVES to: walk up to the nearest existing ancestor, canonicalize, re-append the tail. - `migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill` is a SIXTH writer that resolves a skills-kind `home` override. It creates rather than prunes, which is why it was missed, and `_runLegacyInstallMigrations` runs it before `installRuntimeArtifacts`' own assertion. Guarded, scoped to that kind. - Worst of the three: `bin/install.js` snapshots the resolved skills root before installing, and its outer catch rolls back by deleting and recreating every snapshotted `gsd-*` directory there. The guard's own throw landed in that catch, so refusing an un-sandboxed codex install provoked exactly the mutation the guard exists to prevent. Refusals are now marked and rethrown without rollback — nothing was written, so there is no partial install to undo. Every other error still rolls back. Also carries the sandbox marker into `installSpawnEnv`, so spawned installers are not refused on passwd-less CI images, and corrects three claims that no longer hold: "every writer" (six, and named), the unconditional "fails CLOSED" (the passwd-less marker branch is a deliberate weakening, and TOCTOU is out of scope), and the assertion that Windows os.tmpdir() is always %LOCALAPPDATA%\Temp (Node honors TEMP/TMP). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#3712): name the guard's two limits instead of overclaiming Round-2 review found the prose had drifted ahead of the code. Corrected, with no behavior change: - The module still said FIVE writers; there are six, and the sixth is now named along with why it was missed (it creates rather than prunes) and why it carries its own assertion (it runs before the main one). - The canonicalization docblock listed subordinate bind mounts among the aliases it closes. It does not close them: a bind mount is not a link, so realpath keeps the mount-point spelling. `sameDirectory` already recorded that limit; the new helper now inherits it explicitly rather than contradicting it. Closing it needs mount-table introspection. - "FAILS CLOSED" was unqualified while the passwd-less marker branch is a deliberate weakening — with no passwd entry, nothing can contradict a marker naming the real home. - "Refuses BEFORE any write" was too broad: legacy install migrations run ahead of the layout-driven ones, which is exactly why the two rollbackInstallerMigrations() calls still execute before the rethrow. Only the codex skills-root rollback is skipped, and that is the only _codexPreConfigRollback() call site — applySurface is never called from bin/install.js and uninstall cannot reach it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3712): sandbox HOME in the opencode-family home-override parity rows The last two Windows failures, and the same platform asymmetry in a different disguise. This row drives a skills-kind `home` override on purpose — precisely what the guard polices — but relied on the override temp dir happening to sit outside the real home. It does on POSIX (/tmp, /var/folders); on Windows os.tmpdir() is under %USERPROFILE%, so the guard correctly refused and only Windows went red. Declare the sandbox instead of depending on the platform: HOME becomes the override itself, which is the home the call writes under. This is the fix the guard's own message prescribes, applied to the test rather than to the guard. Both failing Windows shards fail on exactly these two rows and nothing else; every other shard is green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3712): make sameDirectory answer NO when it cannot tell Review Major 1. sameDirectory()'s only caller is the passwd-less marker branch, which reads a `true` as permission to PROCEED: if (marker && sameDirectory(marker, osMod.homedir())) return; The fallthrough returned `true` whenever neither side identified — two absent paths, or two stats failing EACCES/EPERM/EIO on a locked-down host — on the reasoning that "cannot tell" should make the caller refuse. That reasoning was inverted with respect to this caller: it turned the passwd-less escape hatch into an unconditional bypass for any marker value at all, on precisely the hosts the fallback exists to serve. Only two things now answer yes: one resolved pathname, or two readable identities that match. Restoring the old fallthrough takes the new row red. Also from review: - Major 2 asked whether st_dev/st_ino discriminate directories on Windows, where Node derives them from BY_HANDLE_FILE_INFORMATION. The whole guard rests on that primitive, so assert it rather than argue it: a row comparing two distinct temp directories, and one directory reached by two spellings. It runs on every platform in the matrix, so Windows answers the question itself. - Minor 1: the refusal now names the real home it compared against, not just the destination it refused. That is the one fact needed to tell a true positive from a false one, and its absence is what made the Windows case a CI-log dig rather than a glance. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3712): refuse a HOME that merely spells the real home more widely Review round: one Blocker, four Minors, a Nit. N2 (the one with teeth) — a destination's ancestor chain is linear, so "inside the real home AND inside the effective HOME" admits two arrangements, not one. The intended `effectiveHome ⊂ realHome` is the Windows temp shape; `realHome ⊂ effectiveHome` — HOME at /Users, /home, C:\Users — is not a sandbox at all, it is the real home reached by a wider spelling, and it was exempting a stale destination pointing straight at ~/.agents. Third conjunct added; the docblock no longer claims two conditions suffice. Removing the conjunct reds the new row and nothing else. N4 — the migration guard resolved its OWN layout, and without capabilityRegistry, so a registry-dependent descriptor could make it vouch for a path the migration does not write: a guard reporting safe while the unsafe write proceeds. It now guards the destination already resolved by _resolveDevPreferencesSkillTarget, keyed on `installRoot !== targetDir` — which is exactly the condition under which a `home` override was declared, read off that same result. N1 — CONTEXT.md gains the Test Home Guard Module glossary entry that contributor-standards.md requires of a new Module. Not CI-enforced, so green CI was never evidence it was met. N3 — the docs/INVENTORY.md row was misfiled between install-fs-adapter and install-model-override-resolver; the table is alphabetical and the manifest already had it right. Moved, and its text now names six writers and the third conjunct. N5 — applySurface's signature docblock was two parameters stale; this PR added the second of them. N6 — the duplicated rollbackInstallerMigrations() adjacent to the new rethrow: two identical consecutive calls, not two phases. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3712): guard the sixth writer, and close two false-ALLOW paths Review round 3 (NEW-1, NEW-2) plus three defects Codex found in the whole-PR pass, each reproduced before it was fixed. NEW-1 — migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill called the guard with no `deps`, so it bound real os/process.env and could not be wiring-tested the way the other three reachable writers were. It now takes the same optional `deps: { os?, env? }` tail parameter. The wiring block gains the missing fourth row, and a fifth pinning the ALLOW half; the test file's header docblock said "FIVE writers ... the three reachable today", contradicting the six/four statement this PR already put in src/test-home-guard.cts, CONTEXT.md, docs/INVENTORY.md and the changeset. Both directions of the guard's condition now fail a row when broken — previously neither did. NEW-2 — derivesFromSandboxedHome's docblock claimed "THREE conditions are required, and no two of them suffice". False for {2,3}: isInside is reflexive, so whenever conjunct 1 fires conjunct 2 already returns false on its own. Reworded as a fast path, which is what it is. Codex 1 (false ALLOW) — on a host with no readable passwd entry the marker branch returned as soon as the marker matched the effective HOME. That attests a caller sandboxed HOME and says nothing about where an already-resolved destination points, so a layout captured before sandboxHome() — still naming the real ~/.agents — was waved straight through: the same stale-layout shape the primary branch refuses by design. The marker must now identify AND contain every destination. Codex 2 (false ALLOW) — `installRoot !== targetDir` was the stand-in for "the skills kind declared a home override". The two are not equivalent: the inequality is false when the override resolves onto targetDir itself, which is exactly a configDir of $HOME/.agents. The guard was skipped and SKILL.md written into the real home under a test runner. _resolveDevPreferencesSkillTarget now reports hasHomeOverride off the same resolution instead of inferring it from two paths. Codex 3 (prose) — the shared refusal message claimed every guarded writer prunes; the migrate writer only creates. The changeset headline claimed in-process installer calls can no longer reach the real home, which is wider than the guard: writeNonClaudeDefaults still writes ~/.gsd/defaults.json through os.homedir(). INVENTORY's and CONTEXT's fail-closed sentences omitted sameDirectory's pathname-equality shortcut. All four narrowed to what the code does. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3712): let the sandbox marker follow an overridden HOME Found by Codex in the whole-PR pass. installSpawnEnv spreads `overrides` last so an explicit HOME wins — deliberate, and its docblock tells callers needing per-spawn isolation to pass their own { HOME, USERPROFILE }. But the #3712 marker was set before that spread, so such a caller got HOME=<theirs> and marker=<helper default>. On a host with no readable passwd entry the guard compares the two and refuses a legitimately sandboxed spawn — tests/install.test.cjs:7143 and install-shared.cjs's own runInstaller both take that path. The marker is now derived from the final HOME unless the caller supplied one explicitly. The contract test asserted HOME after an override but not the marker, which is why it stayed green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#3712): name the shipped guard condition, not the deleted one Review round 4 of #3725. Two artifacts this PR adds still described `target.installRoot !== targetDir` in the PRESENT tense as the live guard condition on `migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill`. The shipped condition is `runtime && target.hasHomeOverride` (src/install-engine.cts:510). This is not ordinary doc drift. The named condition is the exact false-ALLOW the previous round closed: a `home` override resolving onto `targetDir` — a configDir of `$HOME/.agents`, which is where codex's override points — makes the inequality FALSE while the override is declared, so the guard was skipped. A maintainer reading CONTEXT.md:290 as authoritative would believe the guard still skips that case. - tests/install-write-confinement.test.cjs — the ALLOW-half row's comment. Its "teeth" rationale is unchanged and still correct as written. - CONTEXT.md:290 — the Test Home Guard Module glossary entry, a documented PR gate. Now states the condition and names the inequality only as what it is NOT, with the reason. The three surviving mentions of the inequality are all past-tense or negated (src/install-engine.cts:448, :508 and the sibling test comment at :3698) and are correct as they stand. Verified: `npm run lint:ci` exit 0; full `npm test` 31327 tests / 31312 pass / 0 fail / 14 skipped, run with TMPDIR unset. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3712): canonicalization fails closed, matching identify's errno split Codex full-PR review of #3725, run against the round-4 head. `resolveThroughLinks` caught EVERY realpathSync error and fell back to `path.resolve(dest)` — the lexical spelling. That inverts the function's own purpose. An aliased `<sandbox>/.agents` that cannot be canonicalized keeps its sandbox spelling, satisfies the nested-sandbox exemption at :227, and the write is ALLOWED into the real home — the exact escape this walk exists to close. The module documents that it fails CLOSED with ONE named exception (the marker branch); this was a second, unnamed one. Split by errno, and deliberately by the SAME split `identify` already draws rather than a second policy in one module — both answer "does this path exist as named?", so they must not disagree: ENOENT / ENOTDIR -> walk up. The ordinary case: a fresh install resolves a destination nothing has created yet, so realpath fails on the leaf and on every not-yet-created ancestor. Refusing here rejects every install. anything else (EACCES, EPERM, ELOOP, EIO) -> refuse. The component exists but cannot be resolved, so the guard cannot tell where the write lands. Three rows in the predicate block, beside the other aliasing rows: - a symlink CYCLE in the destination path (ELOOP) -> REFUSE - a destination that does not exist yet (ENOENT) -> ALLOW - a component behind a regular file (ENOTDIR) -> ALLOW Teeth checked against the artifact the test loads, not the source: reverting the condition to the swallow-everything shape in the compiled test-home-guard.cjs turns row 1 — and only row 1 — red. The ENOTDIR row caught a stale build during development, which is the point of asserting on the compiled file. CONTEXT.md and the resolveThroughLinks docblock both record the new behaviour, so this does not repeat the prose-vs-code drift the round-4 finding was about. The changeset's existing scope sentence now bounds "six writers" to the `installRuntimeArtifacts` call tree and names `cmdGenerateDevPreferences` — which resolves the same codex `home` override through `getGlobalSkillsBase` and writes SKILL.md beneath it unguarded. It has no in-process caller today (its only direct require-and-call is a spawnSync with HOME sandboxed), so it is latent rather than live, and whether it belongs in this PR is raised with the maintainer rather than decided here. Verified: `npm run lint:ci` exit 0; full `npm test` 31330 tests / 31315 pass / 0 fail / 14 skipped, TMPDIR unset.

Tom Boucher	004e9dd741	fix(#3007): resolve Codex reasoning effort per model and make every clamp visible (#3765) ... * test(#3007): failing-first suite for per-model Codex effort capability RED by construction. Binds to behavior renderEffortForRuntime does not yet have: an optional third `model` argument, a per-model advertised-level table, `max` passing through instead of clamping to `xhigh`, `minimal` clamping to `low`, `ultra` rejected outright, and clamp visibility (`requested`/`clamped`/ `reason`) so a downgrade is legible from resolver output rather than silent. Two of these pin defects that exist on next today: - `max` is discarded. Both Codex models whose catalog entries are retrievable (sol, luna) advertise `max`; GSD clamps it to `xhigh` and reports nothing. - `minimal` is emitted to a model that refuses it. providerPresets.openai. haiku.low pairs gpt-5.6-luna with reasoning_effort "minimal", and luna's advertised floor is `low`. GSD is sending a value into a document Codex itself validates. The parity test is what pins that fixed, and it names the offending path/model/effort when it trips. Also corrects tests/model-resolver.test.cjs:351, which asserted renderEffortForRuntime('codex','max').value === 'xhigh' -- the defect pinned as though it were a contract. ADR-443 recorded "Codex has no max" as fact and it was true when written; Codex has since added both `max` and `ultra`. That is a stale premise, so the assertion is corrected here rather than worked around. The property test asserts the invariant the whole change exists for: a rendered effort is always a level the target model actually advertises, or an explicit rejection. There is no third outcome. * fix(#3007): resolve Codex effort per model, and make every clamp visible Codex declares supported_reasoning_levels per MODEL and validates against it, so a single per-runtime capability set cannot be right for all of them. GSD's was wrong in both directions at once. `max` reaches Codex now. ADR-443 recorded "Codex has no max" as fact and clamped max -> xhigh on that basis; it was accurate when written, and Codex has since added both `max` and `ultra`. Every Codex model whose catalog entry is retrievable advertises `max`, so the clamp was discarding a level the provider supports, silently, on the most-used path. `minimal` stops reaching Codex. No Codex model advertises it -- both retrievable entries floor at `low` -- yet providerPresets.openai.haiku.low paired gpt-5.6-luna with reasoning_effort "minimal". GSD was writing a value the receiver validates and refuses into a file the receiver reads. Being unconservative in what you send is the half of Postel's rule with no defensible reading, so that preset is corrected and a parity test pins it. `ultra` is refused rather than laddered. Codex's own catalog calls it "Maximum reasoning with automatic task delegation": at ultra, effective_multi_agent_mode returns Proactive and Codex spawns sub-agents on its own initiative, underneath GSD's orchestration rather than inside it (#2167). It is a mode switch, not a reasoning depth, so it is not added to the universal ladder -- which stays provider-agnostic by ADR-443's design -- and it is rejected even for gpt-5.6-sol, which does advertise it. Clamping it down to `max` was considered and rejected: that silently discards what the user actually asked for. Clamping is now visible. RenderedEffort carries requested/clamped/reason and resolve-execution surfaces them. The previous table clamped correctly but invisibly, so a user asking for `max` on Codex had no way to find out they were getting `xhigh` -- exactly the failure mode the robustness principle's modern critique warns about, and why "be liberal" has to mean "liberal and loud". Also closes a latent trap found while reviewing the implementation: the clamp-up loop walks the ladder upward, and for a future model advertising `ultra` but not `max` it would have selected `ultra` as the clamp target -- re-entering by the back door the mode the rejection above exists to keep out. A clamp may never produce a value that a direct request for that value would refuse. Unreachable with today's catalog, which is why no test caught it; a test now asserts the invariant directly. Signature stability is preserved: the third `model` argument is optional and the two-argument form still resolves, against the family baseline. That form's BEHAVIOR does change for `max` and `minimal`, and it must -- keeping the old answer would have fixed the defect only where a model happened to be threaded through and left it live everywhere else. tests/model-resolver.test.cjs:351 asserted the defect as if it were a contract and is corrected here rather than worked around. * fix(#3007): close every review finding on the Codex effort alignment Two isolated reviewers, correctness and security. Both found the same two blockers, and the per-model work was inert on every surface that matters until this commit. BLOCKER — resolve-execution never passed the model and discarded the clamp. cmdResolveExecution called the two-argument form and emitted only effort_rendered/effort_param/effort_propagation, so the per-model table was unreachable from production code (tests were its only caller) and requested/ clamped/reason were computed and thrown away. Requested outcome 3 names "the effective rendered effort in resolver output" specifically, so the feature was unmet on the exact surface the issue asks for. Now passes the resolved model and emits effort_requested / effort_clamped / effort_clamp_reason, flat, matching the existing key convention rather than introducing a nested object. BLOCKER — the docs described output that did not exist. CONFIGURATION.md showed a nested {"effort": ...} sample; the real result is flat and those keys were absent entirely. A reference doc asserting a JSON path a reader can copy is worse than no doc. Corrected against the actual emitted key set. MAJOR — the argv channel still shipped both original defects. EFFORT_ARGV.codex kept minimal in its supported set and still clamped max down to xhigh, so the invocation-time and install-time channels disagreed about the same runtime's capability: --host codex with max emitted xhigh while the generated TOML said max. This is the repo's documented generative-fix-divergence class, so both tables now cross-reference each other and a parity test fails if they ever diverge again. MAJOR — malformed catalog data failed OPEN and could crash the CLI. A null _baseline became an EMPTY Set that is nonetheless truthy, so the nullish fallback never fired and every effort rendered as null. And a non-array value made the Set constructor throw at module load — model-catalog.cjs is required across the whole CLI, so one bad JSON value killed every command, not just codex effort. Guarded on size and filtered to array values; both degrade to the hardcoded baseline. MAJOR — value widened to a nullable string with two consumers left behind. runtime-artifact-conversion passed it straight into injectEffortFrontmatter (a null effort key in generated frontmatter); install-effort-resolver still declared a non-nullable return, a structural lie that silently defeated null checking. Both corrected, both omitting the key on null — the same posture as 'inherit', where omission means "follow the host default". MAJOR — the per-model table is inert today, and the docs now say so. All three shipped models advertise the same usable range and ultra (sol's only differentiator) is rejected for every model, so no observable output differs by model. The table stays because Codex declares capability per model and the sets are free to diverge — a single per-runtime assumption is precisely what went stale and produced this issue — but overselling it as a visible per-model feature would have been the same class of error as the doc blocker above. Tests: three passed under a full revert and are strengthened rather than deleted, since each guards a real contract (#3533's inherit rule, the undeclared-host rule, off-ladder handling) — they now also assert the clamp-visibility fields, which only exist after this change. The fast-check property is kept for its shrinking, and a deterministic nested loop over the full cross-product now sits beside it so coverage is exhaustive rather than sampled. Also folded in earlier: bin/install.js generated the Codex TOML with the two-arg form and would have written a literal null reasoning effort on the ultra path; CONTEXT.md's Model Catalog Module glossary entry now records CODEX_MODEL_EFFORT. The installer defect was found by the co-change gate, not by a reviewer — install.js is a historical co-change partner of model-catalog.cts that this diff had not touched. * test(#3007): correct assertions that pinned Codex's stale effort premise Thirteen pre-existing tests encoded "Codex has no max" as fact and failed on the shipped commit. Every one is a stale pin, not a defect: each was probed against the built module before its expectation was changed, and none failed for a reason other than this premise correction. Kept as its own commit per CONTRIBUTING — a test-fixture correction made stale by a production change must not ride inside another commit, because the release-sdk hotfix cherry-pick filter routes by subject prefix and a correction buried under the wrong prefix ships a half-state (v1.42.3, #3621). The most valuable one was tests/model-resolver.test.cjs's cross-provider validity invariant, which hardcoded the Codex enum as `minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh` and failed with "real API would 400". That message is now false in both directions: Codex accepts `max`, and rejects `minimal`, which no model advertises. The enum is corrected to `low|medium|high|xhigh|max` and the guard is kept intact — it is exactly the "would the real API refuse this" check worth having, and it was right to fail here. It simply carried the stale fact in its own fixture. Test NAMES were corrected alongside their assertions wherever the name asserted the old behavior — "max is Anthropic-only", "max clamps to xhigh", "minimal passthrough". A renamed test that still claims the old thing is worse than a failing one, and a green test whose name states a falsehood is how the next reader inherits the wrong premise. Both channels are covered: install-time (renderEffortForRuntime, and the generated .toml in install-runtime-artifacts) and invocation-time argv (effort-surface-axis). They were deliberately brought into agreement in this change, so their assertions had to move together. Each site carries a #3007 comment recording that Codex gained max/ultra and that capability is declared per model, so a future reader can tell this was a deliberate premise correction rather than a test bent to fit an implementation. * test(#3007): separate the effort-precedence case from the clamp case The previous stale-assertion pass over-corrected one test. It saw `effort: { default: 'max' }` on codex expecting `effort_rendered: 'xhigh'`, assumed the xhigh came from the max→xhigh clamp #3007 removes, renamed it to "max passes through" and changed the expectation to `max`. The remote runner disagreed. Reproduced against the real CLI: with that config and `gsd-planner`, the resolver emits `effort: "xhigh"`, `effort_requested: "xhigh"`, `effort_clamped: false`. The xhigh is produced by effort-resolution PRECEDENCE — gsd-planner is heavy/opus tier and its routing-tier default outranks `effort.default` — so `max` never reaches the renderer at all. The test says nothing about clamping and never did; it only looked like a clamp pin because both mechanisms happened to yield the same string. Restored to `xhigh` and renamed to say what it actually tests. It now also asserts `effort_clamped === false` and `effort_requested === 'xhigh'`, which is what makes it impossible to mistake for a clamp pin again: those two fields prove the value is what the resolver produced rather than something the renderer downgraded. Before #3007 there was no way to tell the two apart from the output — which is precisely why the previous pass could not tell them apart either. Added the test that was actually missing: `effort.agent_overrides`, which outranks the tier default, so the requested level genuinely reaches the renderer and `max` survives to `effort_rendered` end-to-end through the real CLI. Verified by probe before asserting. One test now pins the precedence rule and the other pins the #3007 behavior, and neither can be read as the other. That the clamp-visibility fields are what resolved this is a small argument for having added them. * chore(#3007): backfill changeset pr number to 3765 * test(#3007): put model-catalog under the mutation gate The Stryker shard showed as `skipping` on this PR despite the diff rewriting model-catalog's effort logic. That was legitimate, not a detection bug: `model-catalog` was never in scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs's COVERED map, so the whole module — including everything #3007 touches — sat entirely outside mutation scoring with has_work "false". Registered, with a dedicated spawn-free surface. tests/model-catalog.unit.test.cjs is new: 44 in-process tests, no runGsdTools, no child process, no filesystem, no temp dirs. That shape is not stylistic — it is the #2790 precedent this file already documents. Stryker's command runner treats a whole `node --test <file>` invocation as ONE test costing whatever its slowest case costs, and re-runs it per mutant, so pointing a shard at tests/model-resolver.test.cjs (which uses runGsdTools throughout) would reproduce exactly the 15-minute shard-cap cancellation #2790 hit. The integration file is unaffected and keeps running in full in the normal test job. Coverage spans the module rather than only the diff, because the score is measured over the whole file: effort rendering across every model and ladder level in both channels, the prototype-chain host guard, the exported enums and maps, isAnthropicFlavoredModel's provider namespacings, the profile projections, nextTier, and mergeEffortTierDefaults. The last two were nearly left out and are worth naming — every uncovered exported function is score given away, and mergeEffortTierDefaults turned out to have a genuinely interesting contract (#3531: a partial override merges over the built-ins rather than replacing them, and isValid gates the VALUE, not the tier name, so an unknown tier key is still merged in). Every expectation was probed against the built module before being asserted. minScore is 1 and that is a PLACEHOLDER, flagged as such in the registry comment. Floors in this repo are measured, not chosen — the existing entries sit at 94, 75 and 56 — and they can only be measured in CI, because mutation shards run `node --test`, which is hard-blocked locally. The first CI run on this branch reports the real number and the floor gets ratcheted to it before merge. A placeholder of 1 reaching `next` would make the gate decorative: it would pass whether or not a single mutant is ever killed. Note the target is "never regress from measured", not a fixed 80 — planning-inspect sits at 56 and is documented as an accepted ratchet candidate. * test(#3007): bootstrap model-catalog's mutation floor legally The placeholder floor was structurally illegal and the remote run said so. tests/mutation-matrix-ratchet.test.cjs guards the guard: every COVERED module must carry a matching RATCHET_BASELINE entry in the same diff, minScore must EQUAL that baseline, and it must be at least 50. `minScore: 1` failed all three. That is the ratchet working exactly as intended — a floor nobody can satisfy accidentally is the point of it. Bootstrapped at 50 in both places. Fifty is not a measured score and the comment says so plainly: it is the minimum the guard permits, and it coincides with Stryker's own configured `break` threshold, so it is the lowest legal starting point for a module that has never been measured. It still must be ratcheted to floor(measured) - 1 before this PR merges. Also corrected a real defect in the file's own instructions. "HOW TO UPDATE" step 1 read "Run the per-module Stryker shard locally" — which cannot be done here, and which the same file contradicts eighty lines further down, where the #2790 scores are recorded as "not a local run; mutation shards run `node --test`, hard-blocked in this repo's local environment". stryker.config.mjs confirms the command runner invokes `node --test` once per mutant, and .claude/hooks/block-local-node-test.sh denies exactly that. So the documented first step sends the next contributor at a wall. Rewritten to describe the path that works — push, read the measured score off the CI shard, then set the floor and its baseline together in one diff — and to say why local measurement is not available, so nobody rediscovers it the slow way. GOODHART SAFETY is untouched. The two-step is inherent to the environment rather than a shortcut: a floor cannot be measured before the first CI run exists, and the guard rightly refuses to accept an unmeasured one below its minimum. * test(#3007): ratchet model-catalog's mutation floor to its measured score The shard ran in CI and reported 59.62% — 248 mutants killed, 168 survived, no timeouts, no errors (run 32605073352, job 97108869486). Floor set to 58 per this file's own rule, minScore = floor(measured) - 1, which is the same arithmetic every sibling entry used: 57.03 to 56, 76.58 to 75, 95.65 to 94. Both halves moved together, because the ratchet guard asserts minScore equals its RATCHET_BASELINE entry and would reject them drifting apart. The spawn-free unit surface is vindicated by the clock: 57 seconds, against a 15-minute shard cap and a 9m46s frontmatter shard in the same run. That was the whole reason for creating tests/model-catalog.unit.test.cjs rather than pointing the shard at tests/model-resolver.test.cjs — #2790 recorded shards being CANCELLED at that cap when they targeted a runGsdTools-heavy integration file. The registry comment is rewritten rather than deleted. It previously warned that the floor was provisional and must not ship that way; leaving that text next to a measured floor would make the file lie in the other direction. It now records the measurement the way the sibling entries do, including that 59.62 sits below TARGET (80) and is therefore a ratchet candidate like planning-inspect at 56 — comfortably clear of its own floor with real room to grow. Raise it as the tests improve; never lower it. Worth stating plainly: 168 surviving mutants is not a clean bill of health. It is an honest floor for a module that had NO mutation coverage at all an hour ago, and it is now pinned so it cannot silently regress. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-22 20:51:55 -04:00
Tom Boucher	3fd03bec4c	fix(#3760): refuse a legacy-key migration into a non-object config section (#3767) ... * test(#3760): failing-first regression for non-object config section Locks the contract from the issue's Expected section before any fix exists: a legacy-key section holding a string, number, boolean or array must be preserved verbatim, reported, and never persisted in an expanded form. Covers both blocks the issue names (branching_strategy -> git.*, sub_repos -> planning.*), the migrateOnDisk multiRepo branch that shares the shape, and the loader write paths that are what actually reach the user's config.json. Includes the negative-space cases that must keep hoisting ({} , null, absent section, canonical-nested-wins) and two fast-check properties. Refs #3760 * fix(#3760): refuse a legacy-key migration into a non-object config section normalizeLegacyKeys hoisted a legacy top-level key into its canonical nested section by spreading `result[section] ?? {}`. `??` guards only null and undefined, so a section holding a string was enumerated by index — `{...'main'}` is `{0:'m',1:'a',2:'i',3:'n'}` — while a number or boolean spread to `{}` and the value vanished. Because a fired block always pushed a Normalization, and every caller treats a non-empty normalizations array as 'config is dirty', that shape was written back to .planning/config.json and the original value became unrecoverable. Both blocks the issue names are fixed via one shared hoistLegacyKey helper, plus the two further sites that share the shape and are reachable from the same input: migrateOnDisk's multiRepo branch, and the loader's two `if (!planning) planning = {}` guards, where a non-empty string is truthy and the following assignment threw a strict-mode TypeError that the enclosing catch swallowed — discarding the user's entire config. A present non-object section now blocks its own migration. The section, the legacy key, and the file are left byte-identical; no Normalization is pushed, so nothing marks the config dirty; the refusal is reported in-band as `skipped[]` and out-of-band through the ADR-1411 warnUnusableInput seam (new frozen reason config_section_not_object). null and undefined keep their long-standing 'absent' meaning and still create the section. This is the nested-section analog of the ADR-227 shape check _readConfigFile already performs on the top-level document: valid JSON is not a config object. isConfigSection is exported and shared by both modules rather than copied. Fixes #3760 * fix(#3760): keep the multiRepo marker when planning cannot receive it Follow-up from the isolated adversarial review, and the same defect class as the two blocks the issue names — in the block it did not name. normalizeLegacyKeys block 3 deleted `multiRepo` and pushed a Normalization before anything consulted the planning section, deferring 'can this section receive sub_repos?' to the caller that runs filesystem detection. By then the marker was already gone and the config was already dirty, so with {"multiRepo":true,"planning":"docs"} the loader wrote the file back with multiRepo removed, the sub_repos injection silently no-opped against the string, and no diagnostic was emitted at all. migrateOnDisk warned for the same input; the ~30-caller loadConfig path did not. Section validity is knowable from the parsed config alone — detection is only needed for the VALUE, not for whether the destination can hold it. The refusal moves into block 3: the marker is kept, no Normalization is pushed, and a skipped entry is recorded, so all three callers inherit the preservation and the diagnostic together. The caller-side guards drop to pure narrowing. Also from review: skipped[] now reports sectionType ('string' | 'number' | 'boolean' | 'array') instead of sectionValue. migrateOnDisk's report is printed verbatim by `migrate-config`, and this module already masks config values on the set/unset output path; the type is the whole diagnostic and the value is still in the file. And `migrate-config --raw` no longer answers a refused migration with 'No legacy keys found — config is already canonical.' Legacy keys WERE found and declined, and the decline is the one thing only the user can fix by hand. Refs #3760 * fix(#3760): keep configuration.cjs dependency-free; emit from its callers The remote matrix caught a regression my own change introduced: adding `require('./unusable-input.cjs')` to configuration.cts broke the #3571 install-layout contract. `configuration.cjs` must load from a layout holding only itself plus bin/shared/*.manifest.json — the installer does not co-locate arbitrary siblings — so the new require failed at load time: Cannot find module './unusable-input.cjs' Require stack: - /tmp/gsd-3571-.../.codex/gsd-core/bin/lib/configuration.cjs pinned by 'co-located bin/shared manifests let configuration.cjs load without sdk/shared' in tests/install.test.cjs (3 failures). The contract is deliberate and the test is right, so the module goes back to zero sibling requires and the out-of-band diagnostic moves to the callers that already carry a dependency budget and hold the resolved path: cmdMigrateConfig (config.cts) and loadConfigResolved (config-loader.cts). normalizeLegacyKeys keeps reporting refusals in-band via skipped[], which is what lets it be pure and dependency-free at the same time. The emission-count and dedup assertions move to tests/config-loader.test.cjs, where the diagnostic now originates. A new assertion pins the inverse for the module itself — migrateOnDisk must emit ZERO diagnostics while still reporting skipped[] — so regrowing a sibling require fails a unit test instead of only the install suite. CONTEXT.md records why the emitter is the caller. Refs #3760 * chore(#3760): backfill changeset pr number to 3767 --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-22 18:57:19 -04:00
Tom Boucher	2f86278b5e	fix(#3003): opt-in mechanism for intentional deletions in worktree.cleanup-wave (#3757) ... * test(#3003): failing-first suite for declared deletions in cleanup-wave Binds the guard's opt-in before it exists, so the suite is RED against next. The rows that carry the weight are the over-authorization set: a directory declaration must not authorize its children, a glob declaration must authorize nothing, and a declaration must not act as a string prefix of another path. Each of those BLOCKS, and each would PASS under a prefix, glob, or startsWith matcher — which is how a path list quietly degrades into the boolean opt-in #3003 explicitly rejected. The glob row matters most: declaredScopePrefix already returns null ("matches everything") for a glob-leading pattern, correct for the advisory it serves and catastrophic for a gate. Also pinned: a failed deletion check blocks on its own reason rather than being filtered into a pass; the block detail names only the undeclared residue so the operator is not misdirected by paths that were fine; an entry with no declaration blocks exactly as before; junk and non-array declarations do not authorize; and a blocked entry still isolates rather than aborting the wave (#2852, which must stay fixed). Two advisory rows cover an interaction found while designing: git diff --name-only includes deleted paths, so without unioning the declaration into the #2596 scope check, authorizing a deletion would raise SCOPE_OUT_OF_DECLARED against the very path just authorized. A seeded property states the whole invariant the three over-authorization rows sample: a deletion merges iff its normalized path is in the declared set. * feat(#3003): declared deletions opt-in for the cleanup-wave guard The deletions guard blocked the merge-back of any executor branch whose diff removed a file, with no way to say a removal was intended. A plan that folded one test file into a sibling could not be merged by the tool meant to merge it, forcing a manual --no-ff outside the tool -- strictly less safe than what the guard protects against. A plan now declares removals in its own frontmatter (files_deleted), and that list rides the same path files_modified already travels: plan-document parse -> phase plan JSON -> the per-plan worktree gate -> record-agent/create --deletions -> declared_deletions on the manifest entry -> the guard. The guard blocks only the deletions NOT in that list. A path list rather than a boolean, per the pinned decision: a boolean disarms the guard for the whole entry, so an unexpected deletion riding along with a declared one would pass unnoticed. Matching is exact after the module's shared normalizer -- never a prefix, never a glob. Both would let one declaration authorize a whole set, which is the mass-deletion accident the guard exists to catch. That also means declaredScopePrefix is deliberately NOT reused here: it returns null ("matches everything") for a glob-leading pattern, which is right for the advisory it serves and would silently disarm a gate. The block detail now carries only the undeclared residue, so an operator is not sent looking at paths that were fine. A failed deletion check still blocks on its own reason and is never filtered into a pass. A blocked entry still isolates rather than aborting the wave (#2852). The #2596 scope advisory unions the declaration into its declared set -- git diff --name-only includes deleted paths, so without that, authorizing a deletion would immediately warn that the same path was out of declared scope. Optional and additive throughout: files_deleted is absent from PLAN_REQUIRED_FIELDS, a manifest entry without declared_deletions keeps the original unconditional block, and omitting --deletions leaves the on-disk entry shape untouched. Supersedes the spent #2856 emitted-drift ack entry for execute-phase.md, the same supersede that entry performed on #3370 and #3370 on #3324. * fix(#3003): wire --deletions on every dispatch surface, not just one Review found the feature inert on two of three dispatch paths. execute-phase.md (harness inline) passed --deletions, but the orchestrator-worktree path (executor-isolation-dispatch.md, worktree.create) and the Fleet-parallel batch path (capabilities/claude-orchestration/fragments/execute-wave-pre.md, worktree.record-agent) still passed only --files. A plan declaring files_deleted would have merged on one path and been blocked on the other two -- the exact bug #3003 exists to fix, left unfixed where most of the isolation actually runs. Worse, per-plan-worktree-gate.md already claimed --deletions was passed 'on the same worktree.record-agent / worktree.create calls', which was false for both untouched sites. A doc asserting coverage that does not exist is how a gap survives review. All four surfaces now pass the flag, verified by sweeping every .md under gsd-core/, capabilities/, commands/, skills/ and agents/ that invokes worktree.record-agent or worktree.create: each one that passes --files now also passes --deletions. The isolation-dispatch note explains why this flag, unlike --files, is not advisory -- omitting it does not skip a check, it blocks a merge the plan declared. Regenerates capability-registry.cjs, which the fragment edit made stale. Neither newly-grown file needs an emitted-drift ack: executor-isolation-dispatch.md sits under workflows/execute-phase/steps/ and execute-wave-pre.md under capabilities/, both outside currentSizes()'s non-recursive scan of gsd-core/workflows/ and agents/. * docs(#3003): document files_deleted where a plan author will actually find it The feature's entire user surface is one plan-frontmatter field, and the canonical reference for that frontmatter -- docs/reference/plan-md.md, the table that documents every other key -- never mentioned it. A field nobody can discover ships as a field nobody uses. Adds the files_deleted row and an example entry in all five locales (en, ja-JP, zh-CN, ko-KR, pt-BR), stating the property that makes the opt-in safe: matching is exact per path after separator normalization, with no globs and no directory prefixes, so a declaration can never authorize more than it literally lists, and omitting the field keeps the guard's original unconditional block. Also corrects two claims in the scope-conformance how-to that this change made false. Its opening paragraph described the recorded declared scope as files_modified alone; declared_deletions is now unioned into that comparison. Its "Renames are not detected specially" bullet asserted the deletions guard blocks any entry whose diff contains a deletion, full stop -- which was the whole point of #3003 and is no longer true. Reworked to say what now decides a rename's fate: declare the old path in files_deleted and both halves become ordinary paths for the advisory check, which is also why the old path needs no separate files_modified entry. Documentation that describes the pre-change behavior of the thing being changed is worse than no documentation, because a reader trusts it. * fix(#3003): close every review finding on the declared-deletions opt-in Two independent isolated reviewers, correctness and security. Neither found a blocker; both found real defects, and the directive treats a finding at any severity as blocking. All of them are fixed here. MAJOR -- the submodule worktree gate could not see a deletion-only plan. per-plan-worktree-gate.md intersected $SUBMODULE_PATHS against $PLAN_FILES alone, while $PLAN_DELETIONS was extracted and then never used. Before files_deleted existed, a path had to appear in files_modified to be planned at all, so the gate saw it; the new field plus the new docs telling authors a deleted path needs no files_modified entry opened a hole where a plan whose only submodule touch is a removal kept worktree isolation on -- the exact case #2772 disabled it for. Both channels now feed the intersection. Note the posture is deliberately the OPPOSITE of the cleanup-wave guard: there the channels stay apart because a deletion AUTHORIZATION must never be inferred; here they merge because a safety fallback must never MISS a touch. MAJOR -- same-wave conflict detection could not see a deletion. The planner's implicit-dependency rule compared files_modified only, so plan A editing src/x.ts and plan B declaring files_deleted: [src/x.ts] scored as conflict-free and ran in parallel: one branch removing what the other is writing, which is the sharpest conflict there is. Overlap is now computed across both channels. MINOR (both reviewers, one root cause) -- the advisory union gave one field two matching rules. declared_deletions was unioned into the scope list handed to planWaveScopeConformance, which reads it with prefix-and-glob semantics. So a field that is exact-match-only at the gate silently became wider at the advisory: ["*.md"], inert at the gate, yielded a null prefix meaning "matches everything" and muted the advisory completely, and ["src"] muted all of src/. The union also activated the advisory on plans that declared no modification scope at all, warning on every modified path. Replaced with subtraction from the findings, gated on files_modified alone. One field, one rule, everywhere. MINOR -- core.quotepath made the feature silently inert for non-ASCII paths. git emits "tests/\303\251.ts" C-escaped and quoted, which never equals the declared plain path, so a correctly declared deletion of tests/é.ts would block forever with nothing pointing at the encoding. Both diffs now pass -c core.quotepath=false. NIT -- flag() consumed a following flag as a value, so --deletions --files x swallowed --files and dropped both. Now treated as a missing declaration, which fails closed. Fixed at both call sites; the helper is duplicated verbatim in cmdWorktreeRecordAgent and cmdWorktreeCreate and leaving one would reintroduce it. TEST -- one test passed for the wrong reason. "a declared deletion is in scope for the advisory" asserted only that warnings omit the deleted path; under a full revert the entry blocks first, warnings come back empty, and the negative assertion passes anyway. It now asserts the entry actually merged, which is the load-bearing half. Four regressions added, one per fix above. Docs corrected rather than extended. The rename bullet in the scope-conformance how-to claimed a rename whose delete side is undeclared never reaches the advisory. Verified false: git's rename detection is on by default, so a pure rename is a single R entry that appears in no --diff-filter=D output and was never gated, before or after #3003. Only a rename that edits enough to fall below the similarity threshold decomposes into add+delete. The pre-existing sentence made the same wrong claim; this restates it correctly instead of sharpening the error. The localized plan-md.md reference edits are reverted: the PR template requires docs content added here to be English, and the translations already lag by three fields, so English-only is the repo's standing posture, not an oversight. Agent-file size caps respected: gsd-planner.md is XL-tier by bytes but carries a separate 49152-LF-CHAR cap asserted by four suites, so its edit is deliberately terse and lands at 49141 with 11 chars of headroom, with the rationale moved to docs/reference/plan-md.md, which has no cap. gsd-plan-checker.md lands at 49107 bytes, 45 under the LARGE cap. Both acks merged into the existing fragments that already name those paths, since two ack sources may never name the same path. * fix(#3003): decode git's path quoting instead of changing the git argv The previous commit's non-ASCII fix turned the remote suite red: 44 failures, 42 of them "unexpected git call: -c core.quotepath=false diff --diff-filter=D --name-only ...". The suite's git mocks match on exact argv, so adding two flags to the deletions diff and the advisory diff invalidated every existing fixture in tests/worktree-safety.test.cjs. Rewriting dozens of fixtures to accommodate one flag would be paying a large Hyrum's-law bill to fix a small defect. Both execGit calls are reverted to their original argv. The C-quoting is now decoded in normalizeScopePath instead, via a new decodeGitQuotedPath helper. That is the better fix on its own merits, not merely the cheaper one: the git argv is untouched so no fixture moves, the decode lands on the ONE normalizer already applied to both sides of the comparison so the declared and reported paths cannot disagree, and it holds regardless of the user's own core.quotepath setting rather than only when we remember to override it. A value not wrapped in a leading AND trailing quote is returned completely untouched, so the plain-ASCII path -- the overwhelmingly common case -- is byte-identical to before. Escapes decode to BYTES collected into a Buffer and UTF-8 decoded only at the end, because \303\251 is two bytes forming one character and decoding them separately yields mojibake. Malformed input never throws: a trailing lone backslash or a short octal escape degrades to the literal character, since one bad path must not take down a cleanup wave. Caught while reviewing the helper: the non-escape branch pushed a UTF-16 code unit rather than UTF-8 bytes. Git always escapes non-ASCII so its own output was fine, but this normalizer runs on the DECLARED side too, and an author may write a quoted path holding a literal é -- pushing 0xE9 alone is invalid UTF-8, so the declaration would decode to a replacement character and silently stop matching. That is precisely the failure this change removes, reintroduced on the other side of the comparison. Now converts whole code points, surrogate pairs intact. The other 2 failures: tests/parallel-dependent-plans.test.cjs pins the exact unbackticked substring "files_modified overlap" in gsd-planner.md, and rewording that comment to "declared-scope overlap" deleted it. The comment is restored verbatim and the files_deleted change rides in the pseudocode and the Rule sentence instead. Recorded in the ack fragment so the next contributor does not rediscover it the same way. Four regression tests cover the decode through the public cleanup-wave seam (the helper is module-private): a declared non-ASCII deletion merges against a C-quoted git report, the symmetric case where the DECLARATION is the quoted form, an undeclared non-ASCII deletion still blocks with the residue naming the decoded path an operator can act on, and a path merely containing a quote is left alone. Plain ASCII was already covered and is not duplicated. * fix(#3003): revert the leading-dash flag guard, the review nit was wrong The remote suite came back with 2 failures, down from 44, and both point at the same thing: tests/worktree-safety.test.cjs:7045 already pins the opposite contract, deliberately. test('a flag-shaped --files value is not re-parsed as a flag', ...) recordAgent(['--files', '--branch']) -> files_modified === ['--branch'] -> branch === 'worktree-agent-a1' ("the real --branch value must be untouched") So consuming the next argv element positionally, whatever its shape, is the tested intent of this parser, not an oversight. The security reviewer's nit claimed --deletions --files x would "swallow --files and drop both". It does not: each flag runs its own indexOf, so --deletions records the literal '--files' while --files independently still resolves to x. And that literal is a path git never reports as deleted, so it authorizes nothing -- already fail-closed with no guard at all. The guard bought no safety and silently changed --files behavior along the way, outside this issue's scope. Reverted at both call sites, which are byte-identical again, along with the test asserting the reverted behavior and the docs sentence describing it. The nit is recorded as REJECTED in the review artifact with the reasoning above, rather than as fixed -- a finding that turns out to be wrong should leave a trace of why, or the next reviewer files it again. docs/CLI-TOOLS.md now states the positional-read behavior plainly instead, so the next person meets it as documented intent rather than rediscovering it through a red suite. * chore(#3003): backfill changeset pr number to 3757 * test(#3003): cover parsePlanDocument's filesDeleted branch to clear the mutation gate CI's Stryker shard for plan-document failed at 73.28 against a break threshold of 75: 170 killed, 62 survived, 232 total. Eight of those survivors are the filesDeleted block this issue added to parsePlanDocument, which shipped with no direct coverage at all -- the field was exercised end to end through the cleanup-wave tests, but the parser itself was never called with a plan that declares it, so every mutant in the block lived. Four tests, each pinned to specific mutants rather than written for coverage percentage: - absent key yields exactly [] -- kills the array-literal seed (["Stryker was here"]) and the `fmDeleted = true` conditional, which would otherwise produce ["true"] - a scalar underscore `files_deleted:` wraps into a one-element array -- kills `fmDeleted = false`, the `&&` logical-operator swap, the `fm[""]` string mutation on the first operand, the emptied if-block, and the ternary's non-array branch - an array-valued hyphenated `files-deleted:` maps element-wise -- kills the `fm[""]` mutation on the SECOND operand (only reachable when the legacy hyphen alias is the one carrying the value) and the ternary's array branch - an empty list yields [] -- boundary case, and a genuinely distinct one from the absent key: [] is truthy in JS so it ENTERS the if, and only Array.isArray's true branch mapping over nothing produces the same [] Threshold arithmetic: 174 of 232 are needed for 75%, and these take it to about 178, so the shard clears with margin rather than landing on the line. Every expected value was confirmed by executing the built parser before being asserted, not inferred from reading the source. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-22 13:17:51 -04:00

Tom Boucher	9a69a86f42	enhance(#2971): strict planning filter mode for /gsd-pr-branch (#3720) ... * test(#2971): failing-first suite for the pr-branch planning-path filter Binds the not-yet-built planning.pr_strict mode and the corrected filter recipe for /gsd-pr-branch across six layers: pure classification and forbidden-path predicates, real-git fixtures that run the cherry-pick filter loop end to end, config-key registration through the real CLI and both manifests, the executed worktree-materialization claim the issue's triage asked to establish, fast-check properties over arbitrary path sets, and a drift guard over the shipped workflow. Two live defects in today's shipped recipe are pinned as regressions, both reproduced empirically first: `git rm -r --cached` stages a deletion of any .planning/ path the target branch already tracks, so the generated PR removes the base branch's planning files; and the same command leaves the cherry-picked file untracked on disk, so a second commit touching that path aborts the pick with "untracked working tree files would be overwritten" and every remaining commit is silently dropped. The test helper parses the canonical path lists out of gsd-core/workflows/pr-branch.md rather than restating them, so the workflow stays the single source of truth and the suite cannot drift from what ships. Refs #2971 * feat(#2971): strict planning filter mode for /gsd-pr-branch Adds planning.pr_strict — a boolean, default false, that selects what /gsd-pr-branch means by "filtered". Default mode is unchanged: structural planning state survives into the PR branch and the nine transient subdirectories do not. Strict mode drops every .planning/ path, structural files included, and carries a commit over only when it touches at least one file outside .planning/. Strict mode is what makes planning.commit_docs: true safe for a project that versions its planning tree locally but publishes none of it. The alternative posture, commit_docs: false, silently costs parallel executor isolation — a worktree is checked out from a commit, so an untracked or ignored .planning/ is simply absent inside it and the executor has no PLAN.md to read. That claim is now established by an executed fixture rather than inherited. The two path lists are declared once and both projections derived from them, so create_pr_branch and verify can no longer disagree about what the filter promised. verify previously counted every .planning/ path against a documented success criterion of zero while create_pr_branch was specified to preserve five structural files, so a correct run reported itself as failed on every phase that touched STATE.md — which is every phase. It now asserts against the active mode, and names the .planning/ paths default mode deliberately keeps rather than trading a wrong signal for silence. Two verified defects in the same recipe are fixed alongside, because strict mode would have amplified both. `git rm -r --cached` staged a deletion for any .planning/ path the target branch already tracked, so the generated PR removed the base branch's planning files — under strict mode that would have been the entire tree. The same command left the picked file untracked on disk, so a second commit touching that path aborted the cherry-pick with "untracked working tree files would be overwritten" and every remaining commit was silently dropped. Both were reproduced against real git before being fixed. The filter now forces excluded paths back to what the PR branch's HEAD carries, in the index and the working tree; a conflict outside the filter halts instead of being improvised past; a commit left empty by filtering is skipped rather than failing. A clean-working-tree precondition makes the worktree half safe. Closes #2971 * fix(#2971): unwind the checkout on a conflict halt, and test the real recipe Two review findings, both fixed in place. The isolated adversarial pass found that the conflict-outside-the-filter branch exited while leaving the user checked out on the half-built PR branch with cherry-pick state still live — this loop runs in the user's own working directory, so stranding them there is a real cost even though it is not a vulnerability. The branch now aborts the pick, returns to the original branch, removes the partial PR branch, and says so before exiting. The standards pass found the L2 fixtures executed a hand-written mirror of the cherry-pick filter recipe rather than the recipe itself, so a reordering in the workflow would not have been caught — and the order is load-bearing, since restoring a path from HEAD before removing it inverts the filter. The helper now extracts the canonical loop from the shipped workflow and the fixtures execute that verbatim, which also gives the conflict-halt unwind above real coverage. The drift guard additionally pins the two commands' relative order and asserts the workflow carries exactly one canonical loop. Also records the publication gate in the CONTEXT.md glossary next to the commit gate it is distinct from. Refs #2971 * fix(#2971): make the conflict-halt unwind actually unwind, and use the colon slash form The remote matrix caught two defects in the previous commit. The halt path claimed to restore the original branch but did not. `git cherry-pick --abort` does not apply to a single `--no-commit` pick with no sequencer file, and the fallback left the unmerged index in place, which makes `git checkout` refuse — a failure the `2>/dev/null || true` then swallowed, so the user was told they had been restored while still sitting on the half-built PR branch. The unwind now drops sequencer state, hard-resets the disposable PR branch to clear the unmerged index, and only claims a restore when the checkout actually succeeded; when it does not, it says where the user is and gives them the two commands to finish it by hand. Verified against real git: exit 1, the conflict named, HEAD back on the original branch, the partial branch gone, a clean tree and no CHERRY_PICK_HEAD. Two runtime-loaded source artifacts used the retired `/gsd-<cmd>` hyphen form, which names a command no runtime registers. The canonical authoring token for workflows and references is `/gsd:<cmd>`; docs keep the hyphen form, so the documentation added in this branch is unaffected. The comment in src/config.cts moves to the colon form too, since it propagates into the generated lib.

Tom Boucher	8da2dd3ad2	feat(#2790): add read-only planning.inspect schema-v1 snapshot query (#3708) ... * feat(#2790): add read-only planning.inspect schema-v1 snapshot query Adds a read-only query emitting a schema-versioned JSON projection of .planning/ so downstream harness UIs can consume planning state without parsing GSD's Markdown a second time. Composed strictly from the ADR-3180 section 7 owners plus parsePlanDocument, parseRequirements and parseUatItems; markdown structure is read through the Markdown Sectionizer and Markdown Table Model seams. It declares its own flat external schema rather than serializing PlanningSnapshot, which is the diagnostic-rule subject and still growing. Extracts plan-document parsing out of cmdPhasePlanIndex into a shared leaf module so phase.plan-index and planning.inspect cannot drift, including the plan-id derivation both surfaces report. Also fixes parseRequirements dropping the separator delimiter used by the shipped requirements template, surfaced while wiring the requirement rows. * fix(#2790): close spec gaps and a raw-text test assertion found in review Review findings from the standards, spec and security passes: - phases[] rows carry goal and dependencies, the two per-phase elements the issue Summary names that had no corresponding field. Goal is bounded to the section's leading prose so the Depends-on line, the Plans checklist and the wave annotations are not duplicated into it. - requirement rows carry their own diagnostic codes, so a consumer no longer has to string-parse the global diagnostics subject to correlate. - roadmap_acceptance.checkbox is looked up through the phase-id key owners. It was compared raw against the on-disk directory name, so it read null for every real-world slugged phase directory and the evidence channel was inert. - the hostile-input test asserts the structured payload instead of matching the raw stdout string. The absence proof over raw stdout is kept deliberately. * fix(#2790): register planning in the runtime usage list and repair fixtures Remote runner reported 9 failures on 9b3f9aa. Two root causes, both fixed: - gsd-tools.cjs registered the planning family in HOST_COMMAND_ROUTERS but never added it to TOP_LEVEL_USAGE's Commands list. Those are two surfaces a parity test guards, and the top-of-file block comment is not the runtime help string. A real wiring gap that every local gate and three review passes missed. - the new suite's fixtures could not produce a resolvable phase set. STATE.md frontmatter omitted the milestone field, which ADR-3180 7.2 rule 1 makes the primary milestone selector, so the phase set scoped unscoped and every percentage was correctly withheld. Separately declarePhase returned a path without creating the directory, so a phase declared but never written to left phases empty. Both reproduced against the built module before fixing. No assertion was weakened. The withholding path is still exercised and still returns null when the roadmap is absent. * chore(#2790): backfill changeset pr number * test(#2790): cover every enumerated matrix row and contain a symlink escape Reverses a silent deferral. An earlier revision left 23 of the 78 enumerated matrix rows unimplemented and 7 more as one-off manual checks, with a paragraph in the artifact and the PR body describing the gap. CLAUDE.md is explicit that such a note is not a fix and is not surfacing. The rows are implemented instead and the manual-evidence bucket is gone: 49 test cases become 88, covering all 78. Writing the symlink row proved a real leak: a *-PLAN.md symlinked outside .planning/ had its content emitted into the payload, confirmed via a direct call and the spawned CLI. readDocument now resolves target and planning root with realpathSync and rejects an escape, returning the ordinary unreadable-document shape. Tested both ways, because a containment check that over-rejects is its own defect: an escaping symlink leaks nothing and degrades that plan alone, while a legitimately relocated .planning/ symlink stays fully readable. The three new modules are registered in the mutation COVERED registry, which had been reporting has_work false and skipping the Stryker gate entirely. Provisional non-binding floors so the shards run and report; raised to the measured value before merge, since the registry forbids calibrating from a local run. * fix(#2790): satisfy the mutation ratchet contract and scope the 1MB test Remote runner reported 16 failures on 8c451ed. Two causes. The COVERED registry has a paired contract the earlier commit violated: every module needs a matching RATCHET_BASELINE entry, and minScore must be between 50 and 100 with minScore === baseline. The provisional floor of 1 was illegal on both counts. All three modules now sit at 50 — the registry's own enforced minimum — with matching baselines. The score cannot be measured locally: the shard runs node --test, which this repo hard-blocks, so CI is the only source. Floors are raised to the measured value once this PR's shards report; a shard below 50 means the tests need strengthening, since the floor cannot go lower. The 1MB test was measuring the test harness rather than the product. The command handles the oversized payload correctly by spilling to a tmpfile and resolving it back, but the resolved stdout then exceeds runGsdTools' maxBuffer and the helper reports ENOBUFS. It now uses --pick so stdout stays one byte while the full 1MB document is still read and parsed end to end. * fix(#2790): wire containment across every document read this command drives An isolated security review of the containment control found the boundary logic sound but not comprehensively wired: two content reads reached the filesystem without it. An escaped phase DIRECTORY could enumerate external filenames into the file fields and diagnostic subjects. Both enumeration sites now containment-check the directory before reading. Worth recording that the leak was already prevented one layer earlier than the review claimed: Dirent#isDirectory() reports false for a directory symlink, so such a directory never becomes a phase row at all. The guard is defense-in-depth for a direct caller and for platforms where a reparse point reports as a directory. A *-VERIFICATION.md symlinked outside the root leaked one frontmatter value verbatim, because readVerificationStatus does its own read and copies an unrecognized status into the payload's next_action. Closed from the consumer side through that function's existing fs injection seam, so src/verification.cts keeps its signature and its other callers are untouched. The reviewer additionally rated a forged status: passed as an integrity bypass. It is not: anyone able to plant the symlink can plant a real VERIFICATION.md saying the same thing. The incremental risk is confidentiality, which is what these fixes close. src/plan-scan.cts is deliberately unchanged: isPlanSuperseded reads symlink-followed content but yields only a derived boolean, no document text. * test(#2790): give the mutation shards an in-process surface Two Stryker shards were CANCELLED at the 15-minute cap, not failed on score. CI log: 640 mutants instrumented, and the dry run reported 'Ran 1 tests in 20 seconds' because the shards pointed at the integration suite, where nearly every case spawns a gsd-tools subprocess and Stryker's command runner treats the whole test-runner invocation as a single test. 640 x 20s cannot finish in 15 minutes; at the kill it was 27/640 with an ETA over an hour. Every other COVERED module points at a property or unit file, and the workflow's own paths filter lists exactly those two patterns. In-process is the intended mutation surface; the shards were pointed at the wrong shape of test. Adds tests/planning-inspect.unit.test.cjs — 39 cases in 10 describes that spawn nothing and call the built modules directly. plan-document and the router need no filesystem at all, one being a pure content-to-object parser and the other taking an injected mock. The three shards now point here. The 91-case integration suite is untouched and still runs in the normal test job. * chore(#2790): ratchet mutation floors to the measured CI scores CI run 32392791843 measured all three shards, which is the only source the registry accepts — local runs count timeouts as kills and inflate badly. planning-command-router 95.65 -> floor 94 plan-document 76.58 -> floor 75 planning-inspect 57.03 -> floor 56 Applied the registry's own rule, floor(score) - 1, and updated RATCHET_BASELINE to match, since the ratchet test enforces equality. planning-inspect sits well below the file's target of 80 and is the obvious ratchet candidate as its tests improve. planning-command-router already exceeds the target. The placeholder comment about floors pending measurement is removed rather than left standing as a false statement. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-20 13:42:43 -04:00
Tom Boucher	2fca0e17e4	enhance(#2554): resolve code review depth from path-scoped override rules (#3695) ... * test(#2554): failing-first suite for path-scoped code review depth overrides Binds the not-yet-built code-review-depth module: segment-aware path-prefix matching of a changed-file set against ordered {paths,depth} rules, resolution order flag > strongest matching rule > global > standard, typed validation errors, and the large-scope downgrade boundary. Also proves behaviorally that workflow.code_review_depth_overrides is not yet a registered config key. Refs #2554 * feat(#2554): resolve code review depth from path-scoped override rules Adds workflow.code_review_depth_overrides — an ordered array of {paths, depth} rules matched against a review's changed-file set by segment-aware path-prefix comparison. Resolution order is --depth= flag, then the strongest matching rule, then workflow.code_review_depth, then standard; a matching rule replaces the global rather than being max'd with it, so quick and standard rules stay meaningful. Glob metacharacters are a hard configuration error rather than sugar for a prefix, and malformed rules halt the review instead of degrading to standard. The resolver is pure and reports its own provenance, so the workflow can print the resolved depth and the rule that matched. The pre-existing >50-file deep-to-standard downgrade moves into the module and now names the rule it overrode. The key is registered centrally rather than as a capability config slice: the federated slice channel admits only boolean/string/number/enum, so an array slice would be dropped as malformed. Closes #2554 * test(#2554): correct depth-provenance assertions and pin out-of-repo paths Two corrections to the failing-first suite. The source assertion for a non-matching rule with no global configured expected 'config'; with no global set the depth comes from the default, and a companion assertion tolerated either value, so both passed against an implementation that derived provenance from whether any rules existed rather than from where the depth came from. The out-of-repo absolute-path case used a home-directory path that matched neither implementation, so it never exercised the defect it named. It now pins the discriminating cases: an absolute path outside the repo root must not match a repo-relative rule, and one under the root must. * docs(#2554): document path-scoped code review depth overrides Reference rows for workflow.code_review_depth_overrides in the configuration, features and commands references plus the locale copies that carry those tables, and in the planning-config reference. Explanation of why escalation is whole-review rather than per-file and why v1 is prefix-only. New how-to for scoping review depth by path, carrying the configuration-error reason table and the distinction between nothing to report and could not look. CONTEXT.md glossary entry and the INVENTORY row for the new CLI module. ja-JP and ko-KR CONFIGURATION.md carry no code_review keys at all, and ko-KR and pt-BR FEATURES.md carry no code-review config table, so those files are deliberately untouched. * fix(#2554): make the depth-misconfiguration halt executable and reject control chars Three review findings, all in this change. The misconfiguration halt was prose rather than shell: the error-printing fence was followed by an unconditional extraction fence, so an ok:false result threw and left the depth empty instead of stopping the review. Prose is not a guard — the two fences are now one block with a real conditional, and anything that is not the literal string true fails closed. An interior control character in a rule path survived validation and reached the provenance string and the summary box; rule paths now reject control characters via a new PATH_CONTROL_CHAR reason, after the glob check so precedence is unchanged. That in turn makes the field record safe to delimit, so the seven node invocations that each re-parsed the same result to read one field collapse to one. Also corrects the glossary entry's illustrative paths, which the glossary-ref check read as real repository references. * fix(#2554): use the fast-check v4 string API and acknowledge workflow growth Two failures from the remote matrix on d3111f45, both this branch's. The property block built its segment arbitrary with fc.stringOf, removed in fast-check v4. Because the arbitrary is constructed in the describe body, the throw took out all four property tests rather than one — they had never executed. Rewritten to fc.string({unit, ...}), the form this repo already uses in emitted-attribution.test.cjs. Every other fast-check helper in the file was audited against the installed module. The emitted-attribution growth arm needed an acknowledgment for code-review.md, which grew 5376 bytes. The pre-existing 3503 fragment keying the same file is spent — its ripple was absorbed when #3503 merged, and the base file is exactly the 34435-byte baseline this growth is measured against — so it cannot clear anything, while the ack lint hard-fails on a duplicate key across two sources. Removed it in favor of the new fragment, which is exactly how #3503 itself replaced the spent 3191 fragment. * docs(#2554): backfill changeset PR number --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-19 22:45:35 -04:00

Never executes command text. - gsd-tools check verify-command-paths <N>: per-phase probe, wired into plan-phase.md before the plan-check pass. - init.plan-phase gains prior_verify_commands, ungated by context_window. - gsd-plan-checker: new Verify Command Path Resolvability dimension that reports the failing target and never prescribes a replacement. Also fixes first-match-wins prefix bucketing in scripts/lint-test-file-count.cjs (readdir order is not stable across platforms, so a module whose name extends another's with a hyphen bucketed differently on Linux than on macOS). Closes #2401 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2401): ground the canonical --prefix form, quoted paths, and absolute cd resets Independent review found three defects in the recognizer: - npm --prefix DIR run SCRIPT never reached the script-existence check, because the pattern required npm and run to be adjacent. That is the form the docs tell planners to prefer, so script_missing never fired for it. The prefix flag and its value are now stripped before matching. - --prefix captured with \S+, so a quoted path containing a space was truncated to a stray opening quote and reported as a missing directory - a false blocker, worse than the bug this feature fixes. The capture is now quote-aware. - A chained cd whose later segment was absolute concatenated instead of resetting, producing a nonsense path and another false blocker. The fold now resets on an absolute segment. Also replaces the bespoke phase-directory regex with the canonical phase-id helpers. Real phase directories are NN-slug, not phase-N-slug, so the prior-command harvest matched nothing outside its own fixtures and the planner-inheritance half of this feature was dead code. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(#2401): source task blocks from the canonical sectionizer The module carried its own copy of the <task>-block grammar - a fourth hand-rolled mirror of the one markdown-sectionizer owns. verify.cts keeps its copy only because it needs the type= attribute the canonical helper discards; this module never reads that attribute, so it can share the owner outright instead of adding a test around a copy. extractAutomatedCommands now takes task bodies from extractTaggedBlocks and the out-of-task remainder from stripTaggedBlocks. A task-grammar parity test pins the attributed task-name set against the canonical helper across six awkward task shapes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2401): extract agent-file overflow to references and repair the property arbitrary The remote matrix run came back red with 19 failures, four root causes: - agents/gsd-plan-checker.md and agents/gsd-planner.md both blew the 49152 agent cap. Their bodies move to gsd-core/references/, leaving @-reference stubs, per the documented overflow pattern. - The new checker dimension invoked gsd_run before the canonical preamble that defines it. The call is deleted outright: plan-phase.md already runs the probe and hands the result in as {VERIFY_PATHS}, so the dimension consumes that rather than re-running anything. - fc.fullUnicodeString does not exist in fast-check 4.8.0. Replaced with fc.string({ unit: 'binary' }), which covers the same 0000-10FFFF range. - Three runtime-loaded files grew; acknowledged in the existing ack fragments that already own those bare filenames, since two ack sources may never name the same path.

The dynamic-path refusal rejected ~ anywhere, and a GitHub Windows runner's tmpdir is an 8.3 short name - C:\Users\RUNNER~1\AppData\Local\Temp - so a valid absolute Windows path came back unresolvable/dynamic_path. This was a production bug, not a test artifact: any Windows user whose project path carries an 8.3 short name, or any literal ~, silently lost the probe entirely - every command degrading to unresolvable with no explanation. ~ is a home expansion only at the start of a path; elsewhere it is an ordinary literal. The check is now split: $, backtick, *, ? and newline stay refused anywhere (substitution and globs, and the glob characters are illegal in Windows path components regardless), while ~ is refused only leading, tolerating one leading quote since the check runs before quote stripping. The prior tests only caught this on Windows because only Windows puts a ~ in tmpdir. Four new tests pin it on every platform via a fixture directory literally named RUNNER~1.

Tom Boucher	9e4f0e99ad	fix(#3631): exclude only __pycache__-resident bytecode from the consent digest (#3650) ... * test(3631): failing-first coverage for bytecode-cache in the consent hash bundleContentHash digests a walk with no exclusion, so a routine 'python3 -m unittest' inside a Python-backed capability bundle writes __pycache__ under the bundle, the recomputed hash stops matching the consent record, and the capability silently goes inactive — no error, no warning, and loop render-hooks then omits its step and gate. Two distinct triggers, and the second is the sharper one: collectBundleEntries pushes a {kind:'dir'} entry for EVERY directory and the digest emits a TAG_DIR marker for it, so an EMPTY __pycache__/ flips the hash before a single .pyc is written. A fix filtering only *.pyc would leave that live. Verified by execution against the built lib: 5 of 7 probe rows diverge from intent today, including the empty-directory row. The anti-regression rows are the point of the shape: editing a real scripts/m.py and adding node_modules/pkg/index.js must BOTH still change the hash. node_modules is deliberately not excludable — its contents are required at runtime, so dropping it from the digest would stop consent binding executable content. The symlink row pins ordering: exclusion must apply after the lstat fail-closed rejection, never before. Refs #3631 * fix(3631): exclude derived bytecode caches from the consent digest RED proven at e5ba8f1fe on the remote runner: 8 failures, exactly the rows predicted to fail, with the four anti-regression rows already green. collectBundleEntries now skips a hardcoded, gitignore-independent set from the DIGEST: basenames __pycache__, .pytest_cache, .DS_Store, and any .pyc/.pyo file. Matching is byte-exact on the raw Buffer name (the walk never utf8-decodes) and case-sensitive, so the digest does not vary with how a name happens to be spelled on a case-insensitive volume. Three properties were preserved deliberately, each pinned by a test: - The filter runs AFTER the lstat symlink/non-regular fail-closed rejection. Filtering first would have turned the exclusion into a way to smuggle a symlink past the check; a symlink named x.pyc still throws. - Excluded entries still count toward BUNDLE_MAX_FILES and BUNDLE_MAX_TOTAL_BYTES. The caps guard the WALK; the digest answers a different question, and exclusion must not become an unbounded-bytes hole. - An excluded DIRECTORY is neither emitted as a TAG_DIR marker nor recursed into. The directory marker was the sharper half of this bug: an empty __pycache__ flipped the hash before any .pyc existed, so a *.pyc-only filter would have left it live. The issue proposed either a gitignore-aware walk or a list including node_modules. Both are rejected. A consent binding must not delegate its scope to a .gitignore the bundle author does not control — one line there would drop arbitrary executable content out of the hash. And node_modules holds code that is required at runtime; excluding it would stop consent binding executable content, turning a usability bug into a supply-chain hole. What makes __pycache__ different is that CPython validates each .pyc against its sibling source, which remains hashed, so a real code change still invalidates consent. Docs: CONTEXT.md's 'EVERY regular file AND directory' claim is corrected in place. ADR-2363's residual-gap section said the walk had 'no exclusions' — per docs/adr/README.md ('ADRs are append-only') that is corrected by a dated amendment rather than an in-place edit. Its D4 argument is unaffected: skill bodies are .md and stay bound. Fixes #3631 * fix(3631): narrow the digest exclusion after two isolated security reviews The first cut of this fix passed the full suite and was still wrong. Both orthogonal reviews rejected it, and the second one found a hole that has nothing to do with Python. HIGH — an excluded DIRECTORY was 'continue'd before recursion, so its whole subtree was permanently outside the digest. Declared hook script paths allow '_', '.' and '/' with no directory or extension rule, so hooks:[{script:'__pycache__/run.js'}] installed, executed via node, and its bytes could be rewritten forever without moving the hash. Ship benign v1, collect consent, then own the machine. No Python involved. FALSE RATIONALE — the justification I wrote into the code, CONTEXT.md, the ADR amendment and the changeset claimed CPython validates a cached .pyc against its sibling source, so the source staying hashed kept consent honest. That is not true, and I proved it by execution rather than argument: default timestamp invalidation compares only the source's mtime and size, both settable by anyone who can write the bundle. A forged pyc ran while the .py was byte-identical. Also wrong: '*.pyc' matched anywhere, but a legacy sourceless scripts/x.pyc IS importable, so excluding it was a live vector. Narrowed to what is actually defensible: - a DIRECTORY named __pycache__/.pytest_cache has only its TAG_DIR marker suppressed; the walk still recurses and hashes every non-excluded child. - .pyc/.pyo are excluded ONLY when the parent basename is exactly __pycache__. - a regular FILE named __pycache__, and a DIRECTORY named x.pyc, stay bound. - declared hook paths containing a __pycache__/.pytest_cache segment or a .pyc/.pyo basename are now rejected in both validator copies — a file named .pyc can contain perfectly valid JavaScript, so the exclusion must not be reachable from a declared surface. Accepted residual risk, stated plainly in ADR-2363 and CONTEXT.md instead of explained away: a forged __pycache__/mod.pyc matching an unmodified, still-hashed mod.py executes without moving the digest. Before this change that write was detected. It is accepted to stop routine bytecode caching from silently deactivating capabilities, and it is bounded — the attacker needs post-consent write access, everything outside __pycache__/*.pyc stays hashed, and no declared surface can point into the excluded space. Known limitation, not papered over: .pytest_cache CONTENTS still move the digest. Only the directory marker is suppressed. Excluding that subtree would reopen the HIGH finding. Refs #3631 * fix(3631): drop the .DS_Store exclusion and pin what the caps actually bind Second round of isolated review findings. The hardening closed the two original holes — both re-reviews confirmed that by execution — but it introduced a new one of the same shape, and left three claims unbacked. HIGH, self-inflicted: .DS_Store was excluded from the digest at any depth, but the hook path validator was hardened only for __pycache__/.pytest_cache/.pyc/.pyo. So script:'hooks/.DS_Store' was ACCEPTED, runnableHookCommand emits the bare quoted path for a non-.js name (the branch .sh hooks already use), and capability-source copies it with its mode bit intact. Ship it +x with a benign shebang, take consent, then rewrite it forever — the digest never moves. Fixed by DELETING the .DS_Store exclusion rather than teaching the validator about it: .DS_Store has nothing to do with this issue's Python bytecode symptom, and an excluded filename is a permanently unhashed name. The narrower the exclusion, the smaller the hole. The residual-risk bound in ADR-2363 and CONTEXT.md claimed declared surfaces cannot reach excluded space. That is false and is now stated correctly: node resolves an unregistered extension through the default .js handler, so a hashed, consent-covered hooks/run.js that requires '../__pycache__/mod.pyc' reaches it in one hop. The validator guard raises the bar for DECLARED surfaces; it does not contain the risk. The two bounds that are real — post-consent write access required, everything outside __pycache__/*.pyc still hashed — are kept. The BUNDLE_MAX_FILES boundary test had gone vacuous: it padded with root-level *.pyc, which the hardening made non-excluded, so it no longer proved anything about excluded entries while the ADR claimed the caps were test-pinned. It now pads __pycache__/f{i}.pyc, with the arithmetic re-derived by execution (capability.json + the still-counted __pycache__ dir + N). BUNDLE_MAX_TOTAL_BYTES had zero coverage at all and is now pinned by a sparse 32 MiB __pycache__/big.pyc that must still trip the size cap — the test that proves exclusion did not become an unbounded-bytes hole. Added the parity assertion CLAUDE.md's Generative Fix Divergence rule requires for the two isSafeHookScriptPath copies, and proved it can fail: mutating one BUILT copy to drop .pyo made the parity check report the divergence. Also pinned semantics that were correct but untested and would have survived mutation — __pycache__/sub/x.pyc stays hashed (the parent resets to sub, which is the recursion threading itself), .pytest_cache/y.pyc stays hashed, and .pyo in both directions, which was a free surviving mutant. Changeset rewritten: it still described the rejected wholesale-exclusion semantics.
