a613caaeef enhance(#2721): regenerating merge driver, regen:derived, and a name for the emitted-artifact family (#2730)
* test(#2721): failing-first suite for the gsd-regen driver and CONTEXT.md parity

Tests precede the implementation per the TDD gate. The driver module does not
exist yet, so tests/git-merge-regen-driver.test.cjs fails at require time; the
contributor-standards parity assertions fail against next as it stands today,
where the standards doc names two CONTEXT.md headings that have never existed.

Refs #2721

* feat(#2721): add the gsd-regen merge driver and regen:derived

The golden parity manifests and the two size baselines are pure functions of
the source tree, so their only correct merge is "recompute" -- something git's
ours/theirs interface cannot express. 140 of 143 conflicted-file instances
across the open PR queue are these files.

The driver deliberately does NOT regenerate. Four probes established that at
merge-driver time neither the working tree nor the index reflects the merge:
both hold the ours side, a file added by theirs does not exist yet, and
MERGE_HEAD is unwritten. Git also invokes the driver once per conflicted path
(20 here). A regenerating driver would therefore read the ours-side tree and
emit a plausible-but-wrong hash manifest -- worse than a conflict, because a
conflict is visible. So it accepts %A, runs zero subprocesses, records the
resolved paths, and prints one notice pointing at npm run regen:derived.
Staleness stays caught where it already was, by golden-install-parity in CI.

Every failure path degrades toward today's behaviour (a normal conflict).
install-tree is deliberately excluded per ADR-2719 section 7.

Also folded in, per the no-defer rule: workflow-size.cjs claimed .md files have
no eol=lf in .gitattributes; git check-attr shows eol: lf, set by .gitattributes
line 2 since #1088.

* docs(#2721): document regen:derived and the gsd-regen merge driver

Adds the how-to a contributor actually reaches for when the generated parity
manifests or size baselines conflict, in both places they would look: the
merge-conflict path in CONTRIBUTING.md and the full guide in TESTING-SUITES.md,
including what the driver deliberately does not do (it does not clear GitHub's
CONFLICTING label, and it does not regenerate mid-merge).

Also scopes the new contributor-standards parity assertion to the doc's own
CONTEXT.md section. Its first run flagged `## Decision`, `## Consequences` and
`## Standards followed`, which the doc attributes to an ADR body and a PR body
rather than to CONTEXT.md -- a doc-wide extractor would have demanded CONTEXT.md
grow headings that do not belong to it.

* fix(#2721): stop passing %P to the merge driver — shell injection

The isolated adversarial review found, and I independently reproduced, local
arbitrary command execution.

Git does not invoke a merge driver with an argv array. It substitutes %O %A %B
%L %P textually into the configured string and runs the whole thing through a
shell, and $(...) executes inside POSIX double quotes -- so quoting the
placeholder does not neutralise it. %O/%A/%B are git-generated temp names and
%L is an integer, but %P is the file's own path, chosen freely by any
contributor. A branch renaming a covered fixture to
evil$(touch PWNED_SENTINEL).json executed that command on the machine of every
maintainer who merged it, and the merge still reported success.

Fix removes the input rather than filtering it: %P is no longer registered, so
the driver receives no attacker-controlled argument at all. The marker records
a count instead of path names. A metacharacter filter would have been a guess
about shell grammar; passing nothing is a property. Re-ran the identical
exploit against the fixed command: nothing executed, conflict still resolved.

Two regressions guard it -- a platform-independent assertion that the
registered command carries no %P, and a real merge driven by the actual
planInstall output with a $(...) filename.

Also from review: CLI dispatch had no coverage at all (CONTRIBUTING's
"CLI and command routing" matrix), which is why runInstall/runStatus now take
{repoRoot} -- hardcoding REPO_ROOT was what made them untestable. Renamed
planResolution to resolveAndRecord since the plan* prefix promised purity it
did not have. Reconciled the eleven-vs-twelve generator count across
CONTEXT.md, CONTRIBUTING.md and the changeset.

* test(#2721): scope safe.directory for the check-attr helper

The 66f4d85a run failed 11 assertions, all in the .gitattributes scoping block,
with "fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/work'". The test
container checks the repo out at a path its user does not own, so git refuses
check-attr outright. Everything else passed (27,185).

`check-attr` is a pure read of .gitattributes -- no hooks, no filters -- so the
exemption is scoped to that one invocation. It is deliberately NOT applied to
the driver's own production `git config` calls, which run in the user's own
clone and should keep the protection.

Refs #2721

* test(#2721): delete the stale assertion that the driver command carries %P

The plex2 run on bdfd0856 left exactly two failures, both this test: it still
asserted the pre-fix command string, i.e. the vulnerable behaviour. Deleted
rather than relaxed, per RULESET.TESTS.delete-bad-tests -- its useful half is
already covered, in both directions, by
registeredDriverCommandNeverPassesThePlaceholderForTheFilePath.

Refs #2721

* test(#2721): drive the end-to-end merges from the real planInstall output

The e2e helper hand-rolled its own driver registration, and still carried %P.
That meant the five real-git tests were not exercising the production command
string at all -- planInstall could drift and they would keep passing. They now
register exactly what a contributor gets from npm run setup:merge-driver.

9a76ca6783 fix(#1882): distinguish unterminated frontmatter from absent frontmatter (#2712)
* fix(#1882): distinguish unterminated frontmatter from absent frontmatter

extractFrontmatter returned {} both for a document with no frontmatter and for
one whose fence was opened and never closed, so a file truncated mid-write was
byte-identical to a legitimate no-metadata file. Verified live through
`gsd-tools frontmatter get`: both printed {} with exit 0 and nothing on stderr.

Per ADR-1411's "corrupt is not absent" amendment the {} return is preserved
exactly -- no caller may break -- and the cause is surfaced out-of-band as a
deduplicated, unconditional stderr diagnostic. That mechanism lands as a shared
leaf module rather than a per-site copy because three sibling findings in the
same epic need it identically; four hand-rolled copies of one behaviour is the
generative-fix-divergence defect class.

The discriminator is deliberately not "opened but never closed". A Markdown
document whose first line is a thematic break takes that exact branch, so
flagging on the missing fence alone reports corruption on good Markdown -- the
failure mode this class of check has shipped with before. The unterminated
region is instead run through extractFrontmatter's own parser (extracted as
parseYamlRegion so the probe and the real parse can never diverge) and reported
only when it yields at least one key.

Also folds an inline defect found while working: src/config-loader.cts carried
two NUL bytes in the JSDoc added by this epic's Phase 1 (3eb1cede2), making it
the only non-text file under src. file(1) reported it as data and text tools
silently skipped it, defeating the audit rule that says to search the authored
source; tsc passed because the bytes sat inside a comment, so no gate caught it.
It is live on next.

* test(#1882): pin unterminated-frontmatter detection and its negative space

Covers the discriminator on both sides. The positive rows are the issue's own
repro (LF and CRLF) plus the key-count boundary 0/1/2 around the ">= 1 parsed
key" threshold. The negative rows are the documents that reach the same branch
and must stay silent -- above all a Markdown thematic break at byte 0, which is
how this class of check has previously shipped a false positive on valid
Markdown.

Deduplication is tested on both halves of the composite key: a repeat of the
same (path, cause) is suppressed, a genuine second failure in a different file
is not, and a Windows and POSIX spelling of one path resolve to a single key.
The reset seam is asserted to actually clear -- #2674 is the precedent where a
reset that silently failed to clear made every later dedup assertion a vacuous
pass, and the cases only passed because each happened to pick an unused key, so
every case here uses a path unique to itself.

Assertions are on typed surfaces throughout -- the frozen reason enum and the
dedup-set size -- never on diagnostic prose. The one CLI-level case asserts a
differential between two runs (whether stderr is empty) rather than matching a
message, and is the wired user-reachable surface for this fix. Stream failure is
injected by overriding process.stderr.write and restoring it, never chmod 0o000,
which root bypasses.

Two properties guard the ~50 call sites of the changed function: the new
optional path argument is inert with respect to the parsed value, and LF/CRLF
spellings of a document still parse identically.

* fix(#1882): raise the truncation threshold and repair the dedup key

Isolated adversarial review found the one-key discriminator false-positives on
ordinary Markdown: a thematic break above a single labelled line -- `Note:`,
`Author:`, `TODO:`, `See:` -- parses as exactly one key and was reported as
corruption, which is the precise failure the design claimed to prevent and the
changeset promised was fixed. The threshold is now two keys. A file truncated
after exactly one key becomes a false negative; that is the same
precision-over-recall direction already taken at zero keys, and every GSD
artefact this guards carries two or more frontmatter keys.

Three dedup-key defects, each of which could silently swallow a real diagnostic:

- Backslash normalization is removed. A backslash is a legal filename character
  on Linux and macOS, so folding it to a forward slash made two genuinely
  different files share one key. Two spellings of one Windows path may now
  report twice; two distinct files can never silence each other. Lost signal is
  the worse failure.
- The key namespaces are tagged so a file literally named like the unnamed
  digest fallback can no longer collide with a path-less caller whose content
  hashes to that digest -- computable for any predictable content, no brute
  force needed.
- The source identity is computed once rather than hashed twice per emission.

Corrects the previous commit. The two NUL bytes in src/config-loader.cts were
NOT in a JSDoc comment as that message claimed; they were deliberate separators
in the live dedup key, and stripping them degraded it to bare concatenation.
They are restored as escape sequences -- byte-identical runtime string, and the
file is text again so grep can see it. The diagnostic script that misled me
indexed a character-offset string with a byte offset.

Also threads sourcePath through the STATE.md and PLAN.md readers so the two
artefacts epic #1879 is actually about name their file rather than reporting
under a content digest.

* test(#1882): correct fixtures and assertions left behind by the review fixes

The previous commit changed two behaviours deliberately and the suite still
encoded the old ones, so gsd-test came back red with six failures across both
lanes -- all of them mine.

Fixtures carrying a single frontmatter key no longer clear the two-key
truncation threshold, so the CLI differential and the two path-less dedup cases
were asserting a diagnostic that is now correctly withheld. They now carry two
keys, which is what a real interrupted write of a GSD artefact looks like.

The Windows/POSIX case asserted that two spellings of one path collapse to a
single key -- the exact folding that was removed because it also collapsed
genuinely distinct POSIX files whose names contain a backslash. Inverted to
assert they now report separately, with the reasoning recorded inline so the
trade is not silently reversed later: mild duplicate noise on one Windows path
is acceptable, a swallowed diagnostic is not.

* fix(#1882): name the file at every read site, and report each file once

The diagnostic reached only the four frontmatter CLI verbs, so ~47 of 53 call
sites reported a truncated file under an anonymous content digest instead of
naming it. Since naming the file is the whole point -- it is what an operator
can act on -- that was a gap in the deliverable, not a scoping choice. 43 of 53
sites now pass the resolved path.

Closing it surfaced a defect the original design missed. A single truncated
STATE.md is parsed twice in a normal run: once by the read wrapper, which holds
the path, and again by a pure core downstream, which is handed only the string
and cannot know it. Those two parses keyed separately, so one file produced two
diagnostics -- and wiring more sites made the collision more likely, not less.
Every emission now registers both identities the input could be known by and
checks both before writing, so whichever caller arrives first speaks and the
other is suppressed. Distinct files with distinct content still report
separately, which is the property ADR-1411 actually requires; two files whose
truncated content is byte-identical collapse to one report, which stays the
documented limit.

Ten call sites deliberately keep no path. Two are frontmatter's own round-trip
checks during set and merge, where passing a path would report on every write.
The other eight are the state-transition pure cores, which ADR-1769 defines as
(content, intent, deps) -> newContent with injected I/O; threading a path
through them would contradict that recorded decision, so it is surfaced rather
than taken unilaterally. With the widened key they no longer double-report, and
in the normal flow the named parse runs first, so the file is still named.

Refs #1879

* fix(#1882): inject the STATE.md path into the transition cores

The six state-transition cores parsed STATE.md frontmatter without knowing
which file it came from, so a truncated STATE.md reached the operator as an
anonymous content digest on exactly the artefact epic #1879 is named for.

ADR-1769 section 3 shapes these as (content, intent, deps) -> newContent with
injected deps, and deps is the seam for precisely this: something the core
cannot derive without doing I/O. It already carries roadmapProvider and a
phase-inventory provider on that basis, each documented as injected rather than
imported so the core stays pure and testable without disk access. A resolved
path is data, not I/O, so an optional sourcePath member extends the established
pattern rather than contradicting it, and every existing stub keeps compiling
because the member is optional.

updateCore and reconcileCurrentPosition take no deps and are left alone. With
the widened dedup key they cannot double-report, and in the normal flow the read
wrapper has already named the file by the time they run.

Also regenerates gsd-core/bin/lib/state-transition.cjs. That artifact is tracked
rather than gitignored, unlike most of its siblings, so leaving it stale would
have shipped a runtime without this change to anyone reading the repo without
building. tsc had skipped the re-emit because its incremental build info still
recorded an emit that had since been reverted, so the stale output survived a
clean build; clearing tsconfig.build.tsbuildinfo forced it. The
compiled-artifact-sync gate is what surfaced the drift and now reports all nine
tracked artifacts matching their source.

* fix(#1882): stop the widened dedup key from hiding a second file

The previous commit widened the dedup guard so one file parsed twice -- once by
a read wrapper holding the path, once by a pure core holding only the string --
reported once instead of twice. It did that by checking BOTH keys before
emitting, which silently traded one defect for a worse one: two DIFFERENT files
whose truncated content happened to be byte-identical now collided on the shared
content digest, and the second file's diagnostic was swallowed. That is the
over-coarse keying ADR-1411 explicitly forbids, reintroduced while fixing
something else.

The guard now checks only the key matching what the caller actually knows -- a
named read checks its path key, a path-less read checks its digest key -- while
still recording every key the input could later be identified by. The redundant
path-less re-parse of an already-named file stays silent, and two distinct files
always both report.

Verified across all six orderings: same file named-then-anonymous reports once;
two different files with identical content report twice; two different files
with different content report twice; the same path twice reports once; two
path-less parses of identical content report once; two path-less parses of
different content report twice.

The suite caught this -- twenty failures, all in the unusable-input tests that
reuse one truncated fixture across different paths. The local probe written
alongside the broken change did not, because it compared two files with
different content and could therefore only confirm the expected behaviour.

Refs #1879

* test(#1882): count diagnostics emitted, not identities interned

The suite measured the size of the dedup set as a stand-in for "how many
diagnostics were emitted". That held only while one emission recorded exactly
one key. Once an emission began recording every identity the input could later
be matched by -- a path key and a content key for the same file -- the set grew
by two per write and twenty assertions read 2 where they expected 1.

The production behaviour was correct throughout; the proxy was not. Set size
counts identities, which is an implementation detail of the guard. The
behavioural claim these tests exist to make is how many diagnostics an operator
actually saw, so the module now exposes that directly as an emission counter and
the suite asserts on it. The set-size accessor stays for assertions genuinely
about key shape.

The local probe written alongside the change did not catch this because it
counted process.stderr.write calls -- the right thing -- while the suite counted
set growth. Verification now asserts both and requires them to agree, so a
future divergence between the counter and real writes fails immediately rather
than being discovered a bench run later.

* test(#1882): retire two assertions that outlived the behaviour they described

Both tests encoded assumptions the dedup fix invalidated, and both were caught
by the suite rather than by the probe written alongside the change.

The forged-path case asserted that a file named like the anonymous digest
fallback must not suppress a later path-less report. That premise is gone: an
emission now records every identity its input could be matched by, so ANY named
report of some content silences the anonymous re-parse of that same content --
which is the same-file guard working as intended, and has nothing to do with the
crafted name. The property still worth defending is that a crafted filename can
never silence a real file reported under its own path, so that is what the test
now asserts, with the deliberate suppression documented beside it.

The reset-seam case ended by reading the size of the dedup set and expecting 1.
Set size counts interned identities, not diagnostics written, and one emission
now interns two. It asserts the emission counter for the event and keeps a
weaker set-size check for the interning.

* fix(#1882): close the review findings on the discriminator, dry-run and counter

Three orthogonal review passes ran against the final diff. Their findings:

A labelled preamble under a leading rule was still misreported. Raising the key
threshold to two only moved the boundary, because two colon-labelled lines are
as common in ordinary prose as one -- a document opening with a rule over an
Author and a Reviewed-by line, then prose, was called corrupt. Key count alone
cannot separate the two. What does is what follows: a write interrupted part way
through a frontmatter block ends mid-block, so every line of the region is still
frontmatter-shaped, whereas a document merely opening with a rule goes on to
prose. Both conditions are now required, and each closes a false-positive class
the other leaves open. Nested list values and indented continuations stay
frontmatter-shaped, so legitimate truncations are unaffected.

`state rebuild --dry-run` reported a truncated STATE.md anonymously. The write
path is named only because readModifyWriteStateMd parses with the path first;
the dry-run branch reads the file directly and never did. Dry-run is the
read-only mode an operator reaches for first when they suspect corruption, so it
is the one that most needed to name the file. reconcileCurrentPosition takes the
path as an optional argument now and rebuildCore passes it down. That function
was previously left alone on the grounds that a read wrapper always names the
file first -- this is the flow that disproves it.

The emission counter counted write attempts rather than writes, so on a broken
stderr it claimed a diagnostic had reached the operator when nothing had. It is
incremented only after a write that completed, and the broken-stderr test now
asserts the count as well as the return value.

Two documentation defects. The module described a guarantee it does not keep:
one file yields one diagnostic only when the named read comes first. The reverse
ordering emits twice, and that is deliberate -- a path-less caller cannot
identify its file, so suppressing the later named report would also suppress a
genuine second failure in a different file whenever two files share identical
truncated bytes, which ADR-1411 ranks the worse failure. The comment now states
the asymmetric guarantee and a test pins it. Separately, the CONTEXT.md glossary
entry still described backslash normalization that a later commit removed, and
asserted the opposite of what the tests pin; no lint checks prose against code,
so nothing caught it.

Also converts three body-level try/finally blocks to t.after(), per
CONTRIBUTING.md's rule that try/finally belongs only in helpers with no test
context -- the file's own emissionsDuring helper already did this correctly.

* docs(#1882): tell the operator what the truncated-frontmatter warning means

A user who has just seen the new warning is acting, not studying, so this lands
in the How-To quadrant beside the other "if you see X" branches in
debug-a-failed-execution, not in reference or explanation. It gives them what
the warning means for this run, three steps to restore the file, and the fact
that the warning changes no return value or exit code.

It also states the case that matters more than the warning itself: silence does
not prove the file is intact. GSD says nothing when the partial block carries
fewer than two fields or reads as prose, because a Markdown document opening
with a horizontal rule is indistinguishable from one of those. A reader chasing
missing metadata needs to know not to treat quiet as clean. Why that threshold
exists is explanation and deliberately stays out of a how-to.

* chore(#1882): backfill changeset pr number to 2712

* test(#1882): constrain each branch of the frontmatter-shape check

CI's mutation gate came in at 61.56 against a threshold of 62, and the surviving
mutants were concentrated in isFrontmatterShaped -- the function added last, in
response to review, and the only one never given tests of its own. It was
exercised solely through extractFrontmatter, which covers the composite decision
but leaves each branch of the predicate unconstrained: drop the blank-line
filter, or any one of the three shape alternatives, and every existing assertion
still passed.

Four cases now pin the halves independently. A blank line inside an interrupted
block must not disqualify it, which constrains the filter and its comparison. An
unindented list item and an indented folded-scalar continuation each exercise one
shape alternative that no other case reaches on its own -- the folded line is
neither a key nor a list item, so it is the only input that distinguishes the
indented branch. And two keys followed by prose must stay silent, which is the
negative half: it fails if the predicate is ever mutated to accept everything,
and it is the case that proves key count alone was never sufficient.

* test(#1882): register the unusable-input suite with the frontmatter mutation shard

The mutation gate reported an identical 61.56 across two runs whose only
difference was four added tests. That is the tell: the tests were never
executed. The frontmatter shard runs a fixed file list in stryker.config.mjs and
scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs, and tests/unusable-input.test.cjs was in neither, so
the entire suite covering the new unterminated-fence branch was invisible to the
gate while passing perfectly well in the normal run.

So the score was not measuring weak tests, it was measuring absent ones: #1882
added mutants to frontmatter.cjs and no test in the shard covered them. Both
lists gain the file; the config already notes they must stay in sync.

This is a registration ripple a new test file carries when it covers a
mutation-tracked module, alongside the .gitignore, eslint, inventory, glossary
and size-baseline ripples a new module carries. Nothing warned about it, which
is why two runs were spent before the identical score gave it away.

90ba0ef10b docs(#2720): submit ADR-2719 — emitted-artifact attribution design contract (#2726)
Replaces the committed golden-install-parity hash manifests and per-file
size baselines with a computed conservation law: every emitted path whose
hash moves must be attributable, via a declarative provenance table, to a
path the PR actually changed.

Supersedes ADR-2264 Decision §2-§4 and its Amendment; ADR-2264 Phase 1
(the single-source buildParityManifest and exclusion constants) is
retained and depended upon. Satisfies ADR-2264 AC1 rather than rewording
it away, per that ADR's own 2026-07-17 audit.

Docs-only. Both sides of the supersession edited together; ADR index
regenerated with gen-adr-index.cjs --write.

1008aabd31 fix(#2615): document the effortSurface axis in the host-integration matrix (#2698)
* fix(#2615): document the effortSurface axis in the host-integration matrix

#2481 added `effortSurface` as the ninth negotiated `hostIntegration` axis and
wrote documentation-sourced values into 18 descriptors, but never touched
`docs/reference/host-integration-capability-matrix.md`. The matrix that ADR-1239
designates the cited source of truth had zero occurrences of the axis: no entry in
the axes legend, and no row in any of the per-runtime tables. `src/host-integration.cts`
states "every value is documented or explicitly 'undocumented'" — for this axis
that was false for every runtime.

Adds the legend entry (the `argv` / `none` / `undocumented` vocabulary, plus why
there is deliberately no config-file member) and an `effortSurface` row to all 19
per-runtime tables. Every citation is carried over from #2481's own commit message,
where the values were sourced:

- claude   argv -- `claude --help` documents `--effort <level>`
- opencode argv -- `opencode run --help` documents `--variant`
- codex    argv -- `model_reasoning_effort` is a config.toml key, not a dedicated
                   flag, so the generic `-c key=value` override is the only argv
                   route (still argv)
- 15 hosts undocumented -- their docs state no reasoning setting

kimi-code is the nineteenth section (added by #2603 after #2481) and is the one
runtime with no declared value. Its row and a Documentation-gaps entry record why
rather than inventing one: Kimi Code documents `/effort` (alias `/thinking`), but
only as an INTERACTIVE slash command — `-m, --model` is the only model-adjacent
argv. Neither vocabulary member is accurate (`none` would deny a mechanism the host
has, `argv` would claim one it does not expose), so closing that gap needs a
vocabulary decision, which is a negotiation change and not a documentation one. The
absent value already degrades closed exactly as the sentinel does.

The regression test derives its runtime list from the registry rather than
hardcoding it, so a runtime added later fails until its matrix row exists — the
ratchet whose absence let #2481 add an axis with nothing catching the missing docs.

* docs(#2615): honest citations for the undocumented rows; fix the four stale 8-axis lists

Two findings from the orthogonal review of the first commit.

1. The 15 `undocumented` rows shared byte-identical text — "searched the runtime's
   official docs (see Sources consulted above)" — which is weaker than this file's
   own convention ("no authoritative doc — searched: <url>") and, worse, implies a
   per-host targeted search that did not happen: each section's Sources-consulted
   list was gathered for OTHER axes and contains no CLI-reference or
   reasoning-effort source. The rows now say plainly what the finding is — an
   ABSENCE established by #2481's cross-host survey — and cite that survey rather
   than implying a URL was checked per host.

2. Four normative docs still described "the eight negotiated axes" and omitted
   effortSurface entirely. The worst of them is
   docs/how-to/add-or-update-a-host-integration.md — the maintainer's own guide for
   onboarding a host, whose Step 2 axis table would have a maintainer reproduce
   exactly the gap #2615 exists to close. Also fixed:
   docs/reference/host-integration-interface.md (which calls itself the normative
   reference and had no effortSurface row at all),
   docs/how-to/author-a-host-plugin.md, docs/registries/README.md ("**exactly** the
   eight … axes keys"), and CONTEXT.md's matching EoS-registry sentence.

Deliberately NOT changed, because they are historical records rather than current

3eb1cede26 fix(#1880): distinguish a corrupt config from an absent one (epic #1879 Phase 1) (#2688)
* test(#1880): prove corrupt config is indistinguishable from absent

Failing-first. Encodes the issue's runtime repro: a trailing comma in
.planning/config.json currently yields source:builtin-defaults with
degraded:false - byte-identical to the file not existing - and the user's
entire configuration is silently discarded.

Asserts on the typed surface (CONFIG_REASON, _warnedUnusableConfig) rather
than diagnostic prose, per the ADR-1411 amendment's test-methodology clause
and CONTRIBUTING.md's raw-text-matching rule. IO failure is injected by
monkeypatching fs.readFileSync and restoring in t.after(), never chmod 0o000
(root bypasses mode bits).

* fix(#1880): distinguish a corrupt config from an absent one

loadConfigResolved wrapped the read, the JSON.parse and the entire config
build in one try with one catch, so ENOENT, EACCES and SyntaxError all fell
through to the same defaults and the branches returned degraded:false -
actively asserting health over discarded configuration. A single trailing
comma in .planning/config.json silently replaced the user's whole config,
reporting source:builtin-defaults degraded:false, byte-identical to having
no config file at all.

ConfigResolution now carries a machine-readable reason. Genuine absence keeps
degraded:false / not_configured; a file that exists but cannot be used sets
degraded:true with config_unparseable or config_unreadable. The same split
applies to the root config and to ~/.gsd/defaults.json.

Control flow is deliberately unchanged. preflight_check reports cyclomatic
141 / cognitive 196 and 93 dependents on this function, with the guidance
that small edits beat one big one, so faults are CAPTURED at the existing
read sites and stamped onto the returns rather than the try/catch being
restructured.

Also carries the ADR-1411 amendment's wiring clause: loadConfig returns
.config alone to ~51 call sites and would never see the new field, so an
unusable file emits a deduplicated stderr diagnostic keyed on resolved path
plus errno. Without it the reason would be an unreachable field and the user
whose config was discarded would still get no signal - the actual defect.

Registers the config-loader seam in lint-resolution-provenance, which until
now guarded only agent-skills.

Caller audit: ConfigResolution.degraded has exactly one consumer outside this
module, cmdAgentSkills (src/init.cts:2259), which destructures
{config, source, degraded} - adding a field does not break it. Its --json IR
now reports degraded:true for a corrupt config, which is the intended fix and
the one observable behavior change.

Closes #1880

* fix(#1880): degrade when any config on the path is unusable, not just the last

Two defects found by isolated adversarial review of the first cut.

BLOCKER: the success-path return did not consult configFault. A corrupt ROOT
config whose workstream override happened to parse returned degraded:false /
reason:resolved - the root's settings silently dropped, which is the exact
failure this issue closes, reappearing for any project using workstreams. The
stderr diagnostic fired, so the out-of-band half worked while the in-band half
reported a clean resolve; a --json consumer saw health.

MAJOR: reason was derived from Object.keys(parsed) - the root+workstream MERGE
- so an empty workstream file inheriting a non-empty root reported resolved
despite carrying no settings. Emptiness is now judged on the file actually
read, snapshotted before normalizeLegacyKeys mutates it.

Also: corrects the ConfigResolution JSDoc, which still described the pre-#1880
degraded contract; adds a fast-check property asserting a PRESENT file is
never reported not_configured whatever its bytes (CONTRIBUTING.md parser
rule); and asserts the literal enum values so the provenance lint's
configured_empty/not_configured markers check real assertions rather than
incidental prose in test titles.

Refs #1879

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

* fix(#1880): reject valid JSON that is not a config object at the read seam

The fast-check property added in the previous commit failed on both node
lanes: a config.json containing 0, "str", [], null or true is valid JSON, so
it parsed "ok", then threw downstream in normalizeLegacyKeys, and the outer
catch reported not_configured - a PRESENT file reported as absent, which is
precisely the collapse this issue exists to close. The property asserts a
present file is never not_configured, and it caught it.

_readConfigFile now validates shape, not just parseability (ADR-227: check
the semantic shape at a trust boundary, not merely the type). A non-object
JSON document is an unusable config, reported config_unparseable.

Adds named regression cases for each non-object form alongside the property,
so the class is documented and not only randomly sampled.

* test(#2452): record a fetch-time shallow failure instead of crashing

This guard failed CI on ubuntu-24 while passing on ubuntu-22 and
windows-24 for the same commit, and passed on other PRs. Not a flake and not
caused by the change under test - a real fragility in the test.

runnerDiff ran the base fetch OUTSIDE its try and only guarded the diff, so it
assumed the failure mode is always 'fetch succeeds, diff reports no merge
base'. At a shallow boundary that lands short of the merge base, git can
instead fail during the FETCH ('unable to parse commit' - the boundary
commit's parent is not available). Which stage git fails at is version and
transport dependent, so on some runners the error escaped runnerDiff and
crashed the test rather than being recorded as the ok:false the assertions
expect. Both stages mean the same thing for what this guard protects: a
shallow base ref cannot resolve the three-dot diff.

Also drops two assert.match calls against git's stderr prose. 'no merge base'
and 'unable to parse commit' are the same condition reported at different
stages, and CONTRIBUTING prohibits raw text matching on subprocess output.
The typed outcome (ok === false) is the contract; the tests now assert that
plus the presence of a cause.

Found while investigating the red lane on #2688; fixed here per the no-defer
rule rather than filed.

c07734216f fix(#2603): document kimi-code in the host-integration capability matrix (#2687)
* fix(#2603): document kimi-code in the host-integration matrix; correct 3 inherited axes

The matrix — ADR-1239's deployment source-of-truth — had a section for 18 of 19
installed runtimes but none for `kimi-code`, so its `hostIntegration` axes shipped
with no citation and no evidence quote.

Sourcing every axis independently against Kimi Code CLI's own docs (the issue's
explicit requirement — `kimi` and `kimi-code` are distinct products) showed three
values had been inherited from the Python `kimi` descriptor rather than sourced:

- `embeddingMode` imperative -> declarative. Kimi Code plugins are a
  `kimi.plugin.json` manifest plus markdown Skills with no in-process programmatic
  API (docs/en/customization/plugins.md) — the same shape as `codex`.
- `dispatch.nested` false -> true. The `coder` built-in "can dispatch its own
  nested sub-agents when a task decomposes naturally" (docs/en/customization/agents.md).
  The Python `kimi` CLI genuinely prohibits nesting; Kimi Code does not.
- `dispatch.maxDepth` 1 -> "undocumented". Nesting is documented but no depth
  bound is published, so the fail-closed sentinel applies over a guessed integer.

`dispatch.namedDispatch` deliberately stays `false`: GSD's kimi-code artifact
layout installs Agent Skills only (no `agents` kind), so no named GSD subagent is
registered with the host and `resolveDispatchType` maps every role onto
coder/explore/plan. Flipping it would reintroduce the dispatch failure recorded in
docs/migration/kimi-to-kimi-code.md. The matrix records the host-capability nuance
under Documentation gaps instead.

Behaviourally inert: `namedDispatch:false` already caps nested/maxDepth/background/
backgroundDispatch to false/0 in the effective axes (host-integration.cts:493-499),
and the install adapter is not selected by `embeddingMode` (install.js:543 always
uses the imperative adapter). The one visible effect is the curated profile pin,
which moves programmatic-cli -> declarative-cli.

Also fixes the axes legend, which omitted the `built-in-only` subagentToolkit
member that has been in the closed vocabulary since kimi-code shipped.

Same defect class and countermeasure as #2598: pin the corrected values and require
the matrix to agree with the descriptor, because a descriptor/matrix disagreement is
how the gap survived.

Closes #2603

* fix(#2603): report the maxDepth `undocumented` sentinel as a sentinel, not as malformed

Surfaced by the orthogonal review of this change. `negotiateHostCapabilities`
emits a sentinel-specific warning for every dispatch sub-axis carrying the
documented `undocumented` value — namedDispatch, nested, background,
subagentToolkit, backgroundDispatch, isolation — except `maxDepth`, which fell
through to the numeric guard and reported `host dispatch.maxDepth is missing or
not a number — treating as 0`.

That message is indistinguishable from a genuinely malformed descriptor, so a
correctly fail-closed descriptor reads as broken. Six shipped runtimes carry the
sentinel here (antigravity, augment, opencode, trae, windsurf, zcode) and this
PR's kimi-code correction adds a seventh, which is why it is fixed here rather
than left in place.

The numeric guard keeps firing for genuinely malformed values; both paths still
degrade `effective.dispatch.maxDepth` closed to 0. Covered by three tests,
including the boundary case that the sentinel carve-out must not swallow a real
malformed value.

a3853472de fix(#2598): declare OpenCode subagent dispatch synchronous, not background (#2682)
* fix(#2598): declare OpenCode subagent dispatch synchronous, not background

capabilities/opencode/capability.json advertised dispatch.background: true and
dispatch.backgroundDispatch: true. negotiateHostCapabilities and every
degradationFor / shouldFlattenDispatch consumer trusts these per-field values, so
declaring a capability the host lacks OVERSTATES it — the opposite of the
fail-closed posture the negotiation is built for.

The issue's own citations needed checking before acting: the host-integration
matrix (ADR-1239's designated deployment source-of-truth) documented `true` with
NEWER evidence than the issue cited, and explicitly marked the issue's
sst/opencode#5887 reference as a stale snapshot superseded by #2087. git log
confirms #2087 deliberately flipped these from false to true, citing OpenCode
v1.15.0/v1.17 as "background subagents enabled by default in all modes". Applying
the issue as filed would, on that evidence, have REGRESSED a deliberate update.

So the claim was verified against current upstream rather than either document.
`packages/opencode/src/effect/runtime-flags.ts` on `dev` today reads:

    experimentalBackgroundSubagents: enabledByExperimental("OPENCODE_EXPERIMENTAL_BACKGROUND_SUBAGENTS")

`enabledByExperimental` falls back to the `experimental` flag and `bool()`
defaults to false — the parameter is hidden from the model unless an operator
opts in by env var. Upstream #29638 is still OPEN and confirms the session loop
`tasks.pop()`s one subtask at a time. #2087's "default-on in all modes" reading
does not hold against current dev.

The issue's CONCLUSION is therefore right even though part of its evidence was
superseded: concurrent dispatch cannot be relied on, so both fields are false.

The matrix rows are corrected with the verified citation rather than reverted to
the old #5887 quote, so the record shows why the value is false TODAY rather than
re-asserting evidence that was legitimately superseded. Neighbouring sub-fields
are untouched and pinned by test: namedDispatch, subagentToolkit, and
isolation:'orchestrator-worktree' (which works via `opencode run --dir` at the OS
process level and is unaffected — #2584 does not depend on this value either way).

* fix(#2598): re-pin the dispatch contract tests to synchronous OpenCode dispatch

gsd-test on the descriptor change came back FAILED (5 unique, both node
versions). The failures were not incidental — they were deliberate contract-pin
tests encoding #2087's decision, one named literally "background UPGRADE":

  tests/host-integration-descriptors.test.cjs
    - EXPECTED_FLATTEN[opencode] === false (background-eligible)
    - the derived background-eligible set pin
  tests/opencode-imperative-reference.test.cjs
    - "descriptor declares background dispatch true/true (v1.15/v1.17 upgrade)"
    - "background UPGRADE changes shouldFlattenDispatch: false now"

So this is a recorded decision being reversed, not drift being corrected, and it
is reversed on evidence: current upstream `dev` gates the capability behind
OPENCODE_EXPERIMENTAL_BACKGROUND_SUBAGENTS (default false) and upstream #29638
(OPEN) confirms the session loop still handles one subtask at a time. The issue
is filed by the maintainer and explicitly directs "update golden-parity /
validator fixtures as needed", which sanctions re-pinning.

Behavioral consequence, verified: shouldFlattenDispatch(opencode) now returns
TRUE, so GSD serializes opencode dispatch instead of trusting concurrency it
cannot get. That is the correct fail-closed direction and is safe today — no
shipped GSD flow drives OpenCode background waves (per the issue), and
isolation:'orchestrator-worktree' is unaffected because it works at the OS
process level via `opencode run --dir`, not via the native subagent.

Each re-pinned test now asserts the retracted contract in the opposite
direction — feeding the #2087 axes back in must still yield "would not flatten" —
so a silent re-flip of either field is caught rather than merely un-asserted.

lint:ci exit 0.

a5633bb32f enhance(#2671): brand raw vs calibrated token types so double-application is a compile error (#2676)
* test(#2671): add failing-first brand-typing compile fixtures

* feat(#2671): brand raw vs calibrated token types

* refactor(#2671): hoist type-compile into a before() hook

Two review responses:

- The fixture compile ran in the describe() body, so it executed at
  collection time even when the block was filtered out, and a failed
  precondition collapsed eight independent assertions into one opaque
  describe-level failure. A before() hook is this repo's documented
  idiom and preserves per-test granularity.

- parseTokensFlag now records WHY it returns an unbranded number: it
  validates the magnitude of --tokens, but the basis is decided by
  --calibrated, so branding here would be wrong for half its callers.
  The assertion belongs to cmdEstimateCheck, its only caller.

* test(#2671): pin each brand diagnostic to its OFFENDING marker

Adversarial review demonstrated that asserting only exactly-one-diagnostic-
at-code-N is not airtight. Repairing a fixture's brand violation while
injecting an unrelated error of the same code (a string passed as the
budget argument) still yielded exactly one TS2345, so the fixture would
have reported green while no longer testing its regression at all.

Each bad-* fixture now routes its violating value through a const named
OFFENDING, and the test asserts the diagnostic's start offset falls inside
that node — located through the AST, so it survives reformatting and never
pattern-matches source text. Replaying the proof-of-concept against the new
assertion rejects it: the diagnostic lands on the budget literal, not the
marker.

Also corrects a doc comment that claimed the program type-checks all of
src/; it covers phase-estimation.cts and its transitive dependencies.

0d08c32048 fix(#2590): emit Workflow scripts the Workflow tool accepts; make the backend reachable (#2681)
* fix(#2590): emit Workflow scripts the Workflow tool accepts; make the backend reachable

Every emitted script was rejected. Four invalid constructs, the first fatal on
its own, so the Workflow backend could never dispatch a wave:

  1. no `export const meta = {…}` first statement -> whole script rejected
  2. resumeFromRunId("<id>")  -> "resumeFromRunId is not defined". It is a
     Workflow TOOL INPUT parameter, not a script function. The run id still
     reaches the caller via summary.resumeRunId, to pass as that input.
  3. budget(<n>)              -> "budget is not a function". `budget` is a
     read-only object { total, spent(), remaining() } fed by the caller's token
     directive; a script cannot set it. Recorded as intent in a comment.
  4. parallel(agent(…), agent(…)) -> "parallel() expects an array of functions".
     Now parallel([() => agent(…), …]) — passing agent() results directly also
     started every agent eagerly, before parallel() could bound concurrency.

The single-plan stage had its own branch with the same parallel() defect; both
branches are now one array-emitting path. Waves also emit phase() calls whose
titles match meta.phases exactly, so progress groups correctly.

Two secondary defects kept the script from ever being REACHED — which is why
this shipped undetected:

  5. NOTHING resolved the Agent SDK version. The fragment claimed there was "no
     scriptable way" to introspect it and told callers to omit the flag, so
     gate 5 returned agent_sdk_version_unknown on every automated run while
     `capability state` still reported active:true. True for bash, false for
     Node: the router now reads the installed @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk
     version, walking node_modules up the tree and reading package.json
     directly — require.resolve throws ERR_PACKAGE_PATH_NOT_EXPORTED because the
     SDK's exports map does not expose ./package.json. Precedence: explicit flag
     > GSD_AGENT_SDK_VERSION > installed. Fail-closed is preserved; an
     unresolvable version still declines to inline. A too-old SDK now reports
     the truthful agent_sdk_version_below_floor instead of unknown.
  6. The runtime fallback was `--runtime > GSD_RUNTIME > 'unknown'`, diverging
     from the canonical `GSD_RUNTIME > config.runtime > 'claude'`, so any
     invocation without --runtime reported runtime_not_claude on an ordinary
     Claude project. Now delegates to runtime-slash.resolveRuntime.

The fragment's `${AGENT_SDK_VERSION:+--agent-sdk-version "$AGENT_SDK_VERSION"}`
snippet is removed rather than repaired: it was also shell-dependent — zsh does
not word-split unquoted parameter expansions, so it collapsed to a single argv
element, argValue() never matched, and the run failed into the same
agent_sdk_version_unknown, indistinguishable from genuinely unknown. Auto-
resolution removes the need for the construct entirely.

Verified with the issue's own repro: no flags now reaches the version gate; an
SDK above the floor yields backend:"workflow" with a script that parses as a
real ES module.

* fix(#2590): sync generated registry, repair sibling tests, reject duplicate wave ids

Findings from the isolated review, all fixed.

HIGH — gsd-core/bin/lib/capability-registry.cjs was stale, and `lint:ci` was
already RED because of it. The registry embeds the fragment text INLINE, so the
shipped/installed copy still taught the exact broken contract this PR fixes:
the old `${AGENT_SDK_VERSION:+…}` bash line and the "OMIT the flag when unknown"
guidance. Regenerated. (I had read `lint:ci` by grepping its output instead of
checking its exit code, so I recorded a red chain as green — checking $? now.)

HIGH — three existing tests asserted the OLD broken shape and would have failed
CI; none was touched by the first commit:
  tests/fix-2285-claude-orchestration-wiring.test.cjs — matched resumeFromRunId("…")
  tests/claude-orchestration.test.cjs                 — .includes('budget(')
  tests/claude-orchestration-command-router.test.cjs  — .includes('budget(')
Each now asserts the corrected contract: the id/pool reaches the caller via
summary, and neither construct is ever CALLED. Two sibling assertions had also
gone vacuous — `.includes('resumeFromRunId')` still passed, but only because the
new explanatory COMMENT contains that substring, not because anything is wired.
Rewritten to assert the real property.

MEDIUM — duplicate wave ids were never rejected. Plan-id uniqueness was checked
within a wave, but nothing checked wave ids across waves. That was harmless
before; it is not now, because each wave emits a `phase("Wave <id>")` call plus a
matching meta.phases entry and the tool matches titles by exact string — two
waves sharing an id would collapse into one progress group and misattribute the
second wave's agents to the first. Rejected at validation, with tests either
side of the boundary.

MEDIUM — the fragment contradicted itself (its "Manifest construction" header
still listed $AGENT_SDK_VERSION as orchestrator-built) and, more seriously, never
told the orchestrator to pass summary.resumeRunId as the Workflow tool's
resumeFromRunId INPUT. Since this PR moves resume from a broken in-script call to
a tool-invocation input, an implementer following only the fragment would have
silently regressed phase-resume to a no-op. Both fixed.

MEDIUM — docs/how-to/enable-claude-orchestration-workflow-backend.md and
docs/explanation/claude-orchestration-capability.md documented
`resumeFromRunId("<id>")` and `budget(<tokens>)` as current correct output —
teaching the bug as the feature. Updated to the real contract, including the
required meta block and the thunk-array parallel() form. (The changeset is
`Fixed`, so the docs gate exempts this; it is corrected because it is wrong,
not because a gate demanded it.)

LOW — the router's top-of-file comment still described the divergent
`--runtime > GSD_RUNTIME > 'unknown'` chain as current, ninety lines above the
fix; and inserting resolveInstalledAgentSdkVersion had orphaned
resolveDetectionArgs' JSDoc above the wrong function. Both repaired.

lint:ci now exits 0 (verified by exit code, not by reading output).

c3958018dd docs(#2674): amend ADR-1411 — corrupt is not absent (epic #1879 Phase 0) (#2678)
* docs(#2674): amend adr-1411 with the corrupt-is-not-absent house pattern

ADR-1411 reasons only about a resolution miss. It is silent on input that
is present but not usable, which is how five engine read paths (#1879) could
fold an unusable input into the value meaning 'genuinely absent' without
contradicting an Accepted ADR.

Read together, ADR-1411 and ADR-227 converge and do not license throwing as
the cluster's answer: ADR-227 requires malformed input to be coerced rather
than propagated and carves out only genuinely-fatal fields, while ADR-1411
already permits a fallback provided it is 'a visible value, not a silent
substitution'. The defect in these five sites is therefore not that they fall
back but that they fall back invisibly.

Records the pattern that follows: every current return value is preserved, and
the cause is made visible in-band where the result already carries a
provenance envelope, or out-of-band via a deduplicated stderr diagnostic where
it returns a bare value it cannot extend. Throwing stays confined to ADR-227's
genuinely-fatal carve-out, decided per call. Also names the per-applier caller
audit and the lint-resolution-provenance registry gap.

* test(#2674): prove the warning-state reset misses the unknown-key dedup set

The two existing cases in this suite only pass because each picks a key
name no other case reuses, so neither can observe whether the reset the
beforeEach calls actually runs.

Failing-first: asserts the exported _warnedUnknownConfigKeys is empty after
_resetRuntimeWarningCacheForTests(). It is not - the helper clears only
_warnedConfigKeys despite documenting itself as resetting per-process
warning state.

* fix(#2674): reset the unknown-key dedup set with the runtime warning cache

_resetRuntimeWarningCacheForTests documents itself as resetting per-process
warning state but cleared only _warnedConfigKeys, leaving
_warnedUnknownConfigKeys populated across cases. The suite that exists to
test that set - 'loadConfig - unknown-key warning dedup' - calls the helper
in beforeEach expecting exactly this, so the reset was a silent no-op for
it; both cases passed only because each picked a key name the other never
reused. Any later case reusing a key would have had its warning suppressed
by leaked state.

Found while amending ADR-1411, which names this dedup guard as the pattern
five downstream PRs (#1880-#1884) will adopt - shipping the ADR without the

CONTRIBUTING.md presented the Changeset Required trigger list as bin/,

scripts/changeset/lint.cjs has in USER_FACING_PREFIXES. src/ is the
TypeScript source of truth compiled into gsd-core/bin/lib/*.cjs, so it is
the most-edited user-facing path in the repo and the omission sends any
contributor who touches it into a CI failure the doc says cannot happen.

Also documents that the lint reads GITHUB_BASE_REF, which only CI sets, so
running it bare locally reports success without evaluating the branch. This
PR hit exactly that: a local run said ok_fragment_present and CI failed

Restores: the unconditional-diagnostic clause (ADR-227's GSD_DEBUG opt-in
was never implemented, so citing it as the precedent was wrong), the dedup
key, #1882 folded into the out-of-band mechanism instead of a fourth
mechanism-less category, the narrowed caller-audit rationale, and the
test-methodology clause.

c87f6f358e enhance(#1854): offer restore for user-added files backed up on update (#2679)
* test(#1854): failing-first coverage for user-files-backup restore

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

* feat(#1854): offer restore for user-added files backed up on update

Adds a restore-custom-files gsd-tools verb and wires it into update.md as a
restore_custom_files step: plan, compatibility-check against the newly
installed release, then restore only on explicit opt-in. The backup is never
deleted, a shipped path is never overwritten, and a single unwritable entry
does not abort the rest.

Also drops the jq pipe from update-context field extraction (#2589 class,
missed by that sweep) and repairs a broken code fence in docs/CLI-TOOLS.md.

* fix(#1854): reject symlinked restore destinations and backup roots

Self-review of the restore path found two write-through holes: copyFileSync
follows a symlinked destination, so a link planted at the restore target wrote
outside the config dir with every ancestor still a real directory; and statSync
on the backup root followed a link, letting the walk read arbitrary files and
present them as the user's own backup. Both now lstat.

Also marks the report's path/detail strings as untrusted data in update.md so
the rendered step cannot carry instructions into the runtime model.

* test(#1854): move the update-context jq guard into the #2589 sweep

update.md joins the AUDITED list rather than carrying a duplicate assertion in
the backup-restore suite, and the guard gains a negative-proof companion so
'no jq pipe' cannot pass by the fields simply no longer being read.

* fix(#1854): validate manifest files map shape before trusting it

Security review flagged that Object.keys on a non-plain-object files field
yields numeric-index keys matching nothing, so the managed-path check dies
silently while manifest_found still reports true. Shape, not just type
(ADR-227): an array or scalar files map is now an unusable manifest.

* fix(#1854): size the restore prompt by eligible_count

Spec review found the prompt was driven by entries.length, so a backup holding
only blocked entries asked "Restore 1 file(s)?" when accepting would restore
zero. The question now reads eligible_count, and an all-blocked backup reports
its reasons instead of offering a choice that cannot be honored. The decline
path names the resolved backup_dir rather than the bare directory name.

* test(#1854): use t.skip on hosts without symlink support

A bare return in a node:test body registers as a PASS, so the four symlink
guards silently reported green on unprivileged Windows instead of skipping.
Adds the dangling-link destination case the security review called out, and
moves outside-dir teardown to t.after so a failing assert cannot leak it.

* fix(#1854): unfence restore hint, regen goldens, widen install timeout

Three gate failures from the c99d612a5 run, all root-caused:

1. capability-registry (3): update.md's decline message put an instructional
   'gsd-tools ...' line in an UNTAGGED fence, and the guard treats untagged
   fences as shell blocks. Retagged both display blocks as text and switched
   the hint to the resolved 'node <config-dir>/.../gsd-tools.cjs' form users
   can actually paste.

2. golden-install-parity (19): update.md and gsd-tools.cjs ship, so every
   runtime fixture moved. Regenerated; the diff is exactly those two hashes
   per fixture, no other drift.

3. install.test.cjs (5): one real failure, four cascades. The Cursor suite's
   before hook died on 'spawnSync ETIMEDOUT' at the 60s cap while the node22
   lane passed the SAME commit in 12.7s. A full install measures 13-30s idle,
   so 60s was under 2x headroom and shrinks with every file added to the
   payload. Raised to 120s, matching the heavy case already in this file.

920a5f3f06 fix(#2589): use --raw/--pick for config/model/verify lookups, drop jq dep (#2673)
* fix(#2589): use --raw/--pick for config/model/verify lookups, drop jq dep

The reviewer/workflow config lookups resolved scalars and object fields with a
`gsd_run query <cmd> … | jq … 2>/dev/null || <default>` shape. On any machine
without jq (the default on Windows/Git-Bash) the jq stage fails with exit 127,
the failure is swallowed by 2>/dev/null + the trailing || default, and the
variable comes back EMPTY — the configured per-lane model/host/budget is
silently dropped and the lane falls back to CLI defaults with no diagnostic.

gsd-tools ships native flags that do the same job with no external dep:
  config-get <key> --raw          (strips JSON quotes off a scalar)
  resolve-model <id> --pick model (descends an object)
  resolve-execution … --pick <f>  (same)
  verification.status … --pick status

Replaced every jq-piped config/model/verify lookup across review.md (×23),
plan-phase.md, ship.md, debug.md (incl. the redundant boolean coercion — --raw
returns true/false as bare tokens natively), autonomous.md (×2),
ai-integration-phase.md (×4), and eval-review.md. The legitimate structured-JSON
jq sites that parse HTTP curl responses (.choices[0], jq -rs, jq -n --rawfile)
are untouched — only the jq-replaceable lookups moved to the native flags.

Adds tests/fix-2589-config-get-no-jq.test.cjs: a source-invariant guard asserting
no audited workflow pipes config-get/resolve-model/resolve-execution/verification.status
to jq (fails-first on the pre-fix text, passes after).

* test(#2589): update autonomous-converge jq assertion to --pick; regen golden fixtures

Two test consequences of the workflow-doc edits in the prior commit:

1. tests/autonomous-converge.test.cjs pinned the OLD jq-dependent shape
   (`verification.status … | jq -r '.status//empty'`) as the canonical routing
   contract. The test's INTENT is correct (route human validation through
   canonical verification.status) but it over-specified the MECHANISM (the jq
   pipe). Updated the assertion to match the new native --pick status shape;
   the contract being guarded (canonical verification.status read before the
   human_needed branch) is unchanged.

2. The golden-install-parity fixtures (19 runtimes) record a content hash of
   every installed workflow .md; the 7 edited workflows changed those hashes.
   Regenerated via `npm run gen:golden` (the test's own failure message
   instructs this). Only the 7 edited workflow hashes changed in each fixture.

* fix(#2589): declare jq a prerequisite for the lanes that still need it; repair test file

Three defects in the first cut of the #2589 fix:

1. tests/autonomous-converge.test.cjs was a JavaScript syntax error. The regex
   literal /...2>\/dev/null .../ left the second slash unescaped, terminating the
   literal early and parsing `null` as regex flags:
     SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression flags
   The whole file failed to load, so every assertion in it — including the #1522
   and #1526 guards — silently stopped running. Replaced with the string-compare
   form already used at line 202 for the sibling shell-snippet assertion.

2. lint:ci failed. tests/fix-2589-config-get-no-jq.test.cjs buckets into the
   capped `config` production module via its `config-get-...` effective prefix,
   making it a novel offender against the 2-file cap. The test is about workflow
   documents, not the config module, so it is renamed to
   fix-2589-workflow-jq-dependency.test.cjs (free prefix) rather than growing the
   allowlist with a module that does not actually need a 5th test file.

3. The fix deleted the repo's only jq-prerequisite declaration. review.md:244
   ("install jq if missing") was the anchor plan-review-convergence.md cites by
   line number, and it went away with the jq pipes — while the ollama, lm_studio,
   llama_cpp, opencode, and agy lanes still hard-require jq to parse HTTP
   /v1/chat/completions responses, opencode's JSONL event stream, and agy's
   conversation cache. On a jq-less host those five lanes swallow exit 127 into
   empty output: the same silent-degradation class #2589 exists to close.

   detect_clis now probes jq alongside the other prerequisites and emits
   jq:available / jq:missing, and the five dependent lanes are treated as
   undetected when it is absent, with an install hint. The six lanes that do not
   need jq stay selectable. plan-review-convergence.md now cites the section by
   name instead of a line number that moves.

Regression guards added to the renamed test file: review.md must keep the jq
probe and must name all five dependent lanes, and no workflow may cite review.md
by line number. Workflow-size baseline and the 19 install-parity goldens
regenerated for the review.md / plan-review-convergence.md edits.

* fix(#2589): decide the ship verification gate on a single verification.status read

Isolated review finding (medium). Pre-fix, ship.md captured verification.status
ONCE into $VERIFICATION and picked status / next_action / next_command off that
cached JSON with three jq calls. --pick takes a single dot-path field, so the
mechanical conversion issued three separate queries up front: three node spawns
that each re-read the phase VERIFICATION.md and re-derive the commit-time vs
mtime staleness comparison, on every ship — including the common passing path
that never uses the two message fields. It also meant the gate's verdict and the
message shown to the user were derived from three reads with no guarantee they
observed the same state.

The gate now reads `status` once and decides. The two message-only fields are
read on the blocking path only, after PHASE_VERIFICATION_INCOMPLETE is already
determined — so the passing path costs one query instead of three, and a
concurrent write between reads can no longer make the gate and its message
disagree, because the block/allow decision no longer depends on them.

Adding a multi-field --pick to gsd-tools would have collapsed this to one query,
but that changes the flag's output contract and belongs in its own change.

Regression guard in tests/fix-2589-workflow-jq-dependency.test.cjs: ship.md must
read verification.status exactly three times total, the block decision must
follow the status read, and next_action / next_command must both appear after
the blocking prose so they cannot drift back onto the passing path.

* docs(#2589): document the jq prerequisite for the five reviewer lanes that need it

/gsd-review's ollama, lm_studio, llama_cpp, opencode, and agy lanes parse JSON
GSD does not produce (OpenAI-compatible /v1/chat/completions responses,
OpenCode's JSONL event stream, Antigravity's conversation cache), so they require
jq on PATH. Nothing in docs/ said so. Records which five lanes need it, which six
do not, that reading configured models/hosts/budgets no longer requires jq at
all, and what /gsd-review now does when jq is absent.

6ad30f74b6 feat(#2584): Phase 3 — scheduler consumer + isolation adapters (#2635)
Final phase of #2584 (ADR-1239 Codex-binding amendment). execute-phase now negotiates dispatch.isolation and dispatches through the matching adapter, so a wave's independent plans run concurrently on six runtimes instead of one — with no runtime=== branch in the scheduler.

harness-worktree passes the host's declared isolation flag (claude, cursor); orchestrator-worktree creates the worktree via the Phase-2 verb and spawns the executor into it with the resolved argv/cwd (codex, opencode, kimi, kimi-code); none stays sequential. Undeclared/unknown/unresolvable isolation degrades to none — never an unisolated parallel run.

Fixes two shipped Phase-2 descriptors that per-host research found would fail at spawn: kimi lacked its headless flag (would launch the interactive TUI and hang the orchestrator), and kimi-code named a non-existent binary (Kimi Code installs as 'kimi'). Adds the worktree-path root confinement Phase 2 deferred here, and leading-dash guards on the resolver's prompt/cwd matching the existing git-argument guard.

Closes #2627

77bf21b3a6 fix(#1995): widen worktree branch regex to accept agent-<id> namespace (#2548)
* test(#1995): regression test for agent-<id> branch namespace

Add failing-first tests proving that normalizeCleanupManifestEntry and
planWorktreeRecordAgent reject Claude Code's current agent-<id> isolation
branches (only worktree-agent-<id> is accepted). Boundary tests cover both
namespaces plus rejection cases.

* fix(#1995): widen worktree branch regex to accept agent-<id> namespace

Claude Code's isolation="worktree" branch naming changed from
worktree-agent-<id> to agent-<id>. Widen the regex in all 7 locations
from ^worktree-agent-[A-Za-z0-9._/-]+$ to ^(worktree-)?agent-[A-Za-z0-9._/-]+$
so both namespaces are accepted. Introduce a shared WORKTREE_AGENT_BRANCH_RE
constant in src/worktree-safety.cts to prevent future drift.

Closes #1995

* fix(#1995): update workflow guards, test assertions, and baselines

Widen the branch-check regex in execute-phase.md and execute-plan.md.
Update all test assertions that checked for ^worktree-agent- to expect
the widened ^(worktree-)?agent- pattern. Regenerate golden-install-parity
fixtures, agent-size-baseline, and workflow-size-baseline.

Closes #1995

* fix(#1995): update extractCwdGuardBash sanity check for widened regex

The e2e test's sanity check verified the extracted bash block contained
'worktree-agent-'. After widening to '(worktree-)?agent-', update the

bf8f320083 feat(#2505): Phase 1 — EoS descriptor split (kimi-code capability.json + drift-guard registration) (#2519)
* feat(#2454): add kimi-code as an EoS capability (Node Kimi Code CLI)

PR 1 of N for #2454. Establishes the EoS descriptor foundation for splitting
GSD's kimi support into two distinct products per the user's directive:
- kimi       (existing): Moonshot's Python kimi-cli (~/.kimi, runtime: python)
- kimi-code  (new):      Moonshot's Node Kimi Code CLI (~/.kimi-code,
                         runtime: node, KIMI_CODE_HOME env)

Per ADR-1239 EoS, runtime behavior is driven by capabilities/<id>/capability.json
descriptors, not hardcoded branches in install.js. The new descriptor uses
the existing primitives (dot-home configHome, skills artifactLayout, kimi-hooks-toml
hooksSurface — same TOML [[hooks]] format Kimi Code reads per its docs).

Critical Kimi Code constraint reflected in the descriptor:
  hostIntegration.dispatch.namedDispatch: false
  hostIntegration.dispatch.builtInSubagents: ['coder', 'explore', 'plan']
  hostBehaviors.namedSubagentsSupported: false
Kimi Code's official docs confirm only 3 built-in subagents with NO custom-
subagent registration (the [subagent] table only has timeout_ms). The
kimi-agents YAML layout (used by Python kimi-cli) is therefore NOT in
kimi-code's artifactLayout.

Schema adjustments:
- subagentToolkit set to 'undocumented' (the existing escape hatch); the
  schema enum (full/read-only) lacks a 'limited'/'built-in-only' value.
  A follow-up PR can extend the schema enum to add 'built-in-only' as a
  first-class axis value reflecting Kimi Code's documented model.

Registration:
- capabilities/kimi-code/capability.json (new descriptor, modeled on codex)
- bin/install.js: allRuntimes array + --all list + --kimi-code flag
- gsd-core/bin/shared/runtime-aliases.manifest.json: kimi-code aliases
  (kimi-code, kimicode, kimi_code)
- src/runtime-name-policy.cts: FALLBACK_ALIASES map
- gsd-core/bin/lib/capability-registry.cjs: regenerated via
  scripts/gen-capability-registry.cjs --write

Tests:
- tests/multi-runtime-select.test.cjs updated for the new runtime count (18)
  + new --kimi-code flag test + 'All' shortcut renumbered 18 → 19.

Out of scope for PR 1 (follow-up PRs in the sequence):
- Install-time decision logic (kimi vs kimi-code detection / prompt)
- agent-install-check semantics for kimi-code (verify Agent Skills presence)
- cmdAgentSkills fallback returning subagent prompt content
- Workflow template mapping (named agents → built-in coder/explore/plan)
- Migration guidance for users currently on 'kimi' who are actually on Kimi Code
- Schema enum extension for subagentToolkit: 'built-in-only'

* fix(#2454): complete drift-guard registrations for kimi-code runtime

The drift guards caught every surface that pins runtime enumeration. Each
update is mechanical, driven by the guard's named failure mode:

- src/runtime-name-policy.cts RUNTIME_LABELS: 'Kimi Code' label for kimi-code
- src/runtime-name-policy.cts RUNTIME_FLAG_IDS: add kimi-code to the
  isKimiCode predicate generator
- bin/install.js runtimeMap: option '11' → 'kimi-code', renumber downstream
  entries (11..17 → 12..18), ALL_RUNTIMES_OPTION 18 → 19
- gsd-core/bin/shared/model-catalog.json runtimeTierDefaults: kimi-code entry
  (null/null/null — same as kimi, no model tier defaults until configured)
- docs/reference/capability-matrix.md: regenerated via
  scripts/gen-capability-matrix.cjs --write (kimi-code row added)
- tests/global-config-home-fragment.test.cjs GOLDEN_FRAGMENT_MAP:
  kimi-code → '.kimi-code'
- tests/fixtures/golden-install-parity/*.json: regenerated via npm run gen:golden
  (the runtime-aliases.manifest.json hash changed; all 17 runtime fixtures updated)

The capability-registry is already regenerated from the prior commit.

* test(#2454): update drift-guard tests for kimi-code runtime registration

Multiple drift guards pin runtime enumeration counts and option numbering.
Each update is mechanical, driven by the guard's named failure mode:

- tests/runtime-flags.test.cjs: EXPECTED_FLAGS gains isKimiCode (16 → 17);
  'all 16 flags' → 'all 17 flags' in test names + messages.
- tests/multi-runtime-select.test.cjs: parseRuntimeInput option renumbering
  cascade — kilo moves 11→12, opencode 12→13, pi 13→14, qwen 14→15,
  trae 15→16, windsurf 16→17, zcode 17→18, All 18→19. New single-choice
  test for kimi-code (option 11). Prompt test updated for new numbering.
- tests/host-integration-descriptors.test.cjs: EXPECTED_PROFILES gains
  kimi-code → 'programmatic-cli' (terminal CLI per Kimi Code docs);
  EXPECTED_FLATTEN gains kimi-code → false (backgroundDispatch:true per
  docs, same as Python kimi/opencode).
- tests/global-config-home-fragment.test.cjs: table-count test renamed
  13 → 14 table runtimes (kimi-code added to GOLDEN_FRAGMENT_MAP earlier).

* fix(#2454): empty artifactLayout for kimi-code (PR 1 scope)

The skills kind requires a converter (existing converters are per-runtime
like convertClaudeCommandToKimiSkill). PR 1 of this multi-PR sequence only
registers the descriptor; the actual Agent Skills converter (and a new
'convertClaudeCommandToKimiCodeSkill' function) lands in PR 2 alongside
the install-time decision logic. Empty artifactLayout.global is valid and
means 'nothing to install yet via the layout seam'.

Also: added kimi-code to RUNTIME_META in tests/helpers/install-shared.cjs
(localDir .kimi-code, globalSuffix .kimi-code), and added Kimi Code as
option 11 in install.js's buildRuntimePromptText (renumbered downstream
options 11..17 → 12..18, All 18 → 19).

* fix(#2454): camelCase runtimeFlags for hyphenated ids (kimi-code → isKimiCode)

The runtimeFlags generator previously produced 'isKimi-code' (hyphen preserved)
for the new kimi-code runtime id. Property names with hyphens are awkward for
consumers (flags['isKimi-code'] instead of flags.isKimiCode). The new
runtimeIdToFlagName helper folds -[a-z] boundaries to uppercase, producing
the conventional PascalCase flag name. The 16 prior single-word runtime ids
are unaffected (the regex finds no hyphens).

* fix(#2454): update remaining drift-guard tests + gen kimi-code fixtures

- tests/runtime-flags.test.cjs drift guard: use proper kebab-case
  conversion (isKimiCode → kimi-code, not 'kimicode') so the registry
  comparison doesn't false-positive on hyphenated runtime ids.
- tests/multi-runtime-select.test.cjs: fix kilo/opencode/pi/qwen/trae
  single-choice tests for the renumbered options (kilo 11→12, opencode
  12→13, pi 13→14, qwen 14→15, trae 15→16).
- tests/install.test.cjs: Kilo integration option 11→12, prompt test
  regex updated.
- tests/fixtures/golden-install-parity/kimi-code.json + install-tree/
  kimi-code.json: generated via UPDATE_GOLDEN=1 + UPDATE_INSTALL_TREE=1.
  The kimi-code install produces the standard GSD install layout (skills,
  contexts, references, etc.) — 436 paths, same shape as other runtimes
  that have no custom converter yet.

* fix(#2454): add kimi-code install contract + global config home fragment

- src/runtime-name-policy.cts GLOBAL_CONFIG_HOME_FRAGMENTS: add kimi-code
  → '.kimi-code' so getGlobalConfigHomeFragment returns the correct path
  instead of falling through to the default '.claude'.
- tests/installer-migration-install.integration.test.cjs
  RUNTIME_INSTALL_CONTRACTS: kimi-code entry (same surface as kimi for
  PR 1; PR 2 will specialize once the Agent Skills converter lands).
- tests/multi-runtime-select.test.cjs: fix space-separated-choices test
  for the renumbered kilo option (11 → 12).
- tests/fixtures/golden-install-parity/kimi-code.json + install-tree/
  kimi-code.json: regenerated after rebasing onto current next (new
  planner-reversibility.md from #2471 etc. now included).

* test(#2454): skip kimi-code install contract until PR 2 ships install layout

The end-to-end install test (tests/installer-migration-install.integration
.test.cjs) asserts every allRuntimes entry installs a runtime-specific
artifact surface. PR 1 of #2454 registers kimi-code in allRuntimes + the
capability descriptor + flags + labels, but the install LAYOUT (Agent
Skills converter + global AGENTS.md at $KIMI_CODE_HOME/AGENTS.md) lands
in PR 2. The SKIP_INSTALL_CONTRACT set marks this exclusion explicit and
self-removing — PR 2 removes the entry alongside adding the install
surface, restoring the contract loop to full coverage.

* fix(#2454): restore compact model-catalog.json format (M1 review)

Per code-review M1: my prior 'fix(#2454): complete drift-guard registrations'
commit used python json.dump(indent=2) which inflated the file from 165→607
lines (every nested entry got expanded) and lost the trailing newline. The
semantic change was just a 3-line kimi-code entry. Restored the original
hybrid format (top-level indent=2 + inner entries' one-line style) and
added kimi-code in matching form.

Regenerated golden install parity + install tree fixtures since the
model-catalog.json hash changed.

* fix(#2454): update CONTEXT.md allRuntimes glossary (17 → 18, add kimi-code)

CI lint-tests job failed on the glossary drift guard
(scripts/check-glossary-refs.cjs --check):
  ✗ CONTEXT.md's allRuntimes enum-count sentence claims 17 values but
    bin/install.js's allRuntimes array has 18.
  ✗ CONTEXT.md's allRuntimes member list has drifted from bin/install.js
    (missing from CONTEXT.md's list: kimi-code).

Missed in the prior commits because gsd-test does not run the glossary
check (it's a CI lint-tests-only check). Updating CONTEXT.md's two claims
to 18 values + kimi-code in the member list.

09b535ac00 feat(#2481): add a negotiated effortSurface axis and wire invocation-time effort
ADR-1239 gains a ninth negotiated axis, effortSurface (argv | none), declaring how
a host accepts reasoning effort. ADR-443 is amended in the same change because its
recorded deferral is what the axis resolves: its Unblock condition offered paths
(a) and (b) and stated the choice was 'a maintainer call this file records but does
not make'. Path (a) is selected and satisfied here.

Before this, effort reached a runtime only through install-time channels
(EFFORT_RENDERING's frontmatter/api), so reviewer CLIs spawned as subprocesses
silently inherited whatever effort sat in the user's own global CLI config. The
review lane now resolves one universal effort through the ADR-443 cascade and
renders it per host through the negotiated descriptor.

Every per-host value is documentation-sourced, never inferred:
- claude   argv  -- verified via 'claude --help' (--effort <level>)
- opencode argv  -- verified via 'opencode run --help' (--variant)
- codex    argv  -- codex-rs/exec/src/cli.rs: model_reasoning_effort is NOT a CLI
                    flag (config.toml key only), so the global -c override is the
                    only argv route
- 15 hosts undocumented -- their docs state no reasoning setting; the sentinel
                    fails closed rather than inheriting a profile baseline

No config-file vocabulary member: the only host that ever had one (Gemini CLI's
thinkingConfig) was removed as a sunset runtime by 8f2ebbe9b (#1928, PR #1996),
and neither Antigravity CLI nor ZCode documents a reasoning setting.

c5e0371775 feat(#1951): reversibility tagging — gate one-way-door decisions (#2471)
* test(#1951): add failing-first tests for reversibility tagging

Red phase for issue #1951 (reversibility tagging: classify decisions by
undo cost, gate one-way doors behind a checkpoint:decision).

Tests assert, per the issue's acceptance criteria:
- discuss-phase CONTEXT.md template records a **Reversibility:** field with
  a rationale on captured decisions, and states it is optional
- gsd-planner @-references planner-reversibility.md and stays under the
  49152-char agent cap (LARGE_CAP, tests/agent-size-budget.test.cjs)
- a one-way rating inserts a checkpoint:decision before the dependent task;
  reversible inserts none; costly is flagged but never blocks
- the taxonomy defaults to reversible when unsure (checkpoint-fatigue guard)
  and inserting a checkpoint implies autonomous: false
- docs/reference/plan-md.md documents <reversibility> as optional with all
  three ratings
- --no-reversibility-gates parses to REVERSIBILITY_GATES=false, is injected
  into the planner prompt, and is advertised in the command argument-hint
  and help full mode (argument-hint parity)
- the override suppresses the gate but still persists the rating
- cmdVerifyPlanStructure accepts every rating and the absent case
  (additive-validator guarantee, behavioral via runGsdTools)
- parity: thinking-models-planning.md #4 adopts the canonical three-level
  taxonomy and the binary REVERSIBLE/IRREVERSIBLE vocabulary is gone
- no content loss from the planner extraction made to fit under the cap

Prose-contract assertions are Red until the implementation lands. The
behavioral validator assertions pass immediately — regression guards
proving the validator already accepts unknown optional tags.

* feat(#1951): reversibility tagging — gate one-way-door decisions

Classify planning decisions by what undoing them would cost, and give a
one-way door a human beat before the agent walks through it (issue #1951,
The Pragmatic Programmer Topic 15 'Reversibility'; Bezos's one-way/two-way
door framing).

Acceptance criteria met:
- discuss-phase records an optional reversibility rating with a rationale
  on <decisions> entries in the phase CONTEXT.md template. Unrated
  decisions are treated as reversible, so existing phases are unaffected.
- a one-way rating makes gsd-planner insert a checkpoint:decision before
  the task that implements the decision, reusing the existing checkpoint
  mechanism -- no new checkpoint machinery.
- reversible ratings trigger no checkpoint; costly ratings are flagged in
  the plan but never block.
- the rating persists on the task as the optional <reversibility rating=>
  element. cmdVerifyPlanStructure accepts every rating and the absent
  case; the structural validator does not reject unknown optional tags.
- --no-reversibility-gates (REVERSIBILITY_GATES=false) suppresses
  checkpoint insertion for intentionally-unattended runs while still
  recording ratings -- the override changes what stops the run, not what
  the plan remembers.

Single taxonomy, not two: references/thinking-models-planning.md #4
already shipped a binary REVERSIBLE/IRREVERSIBLE classification and is
loaded by both gsd-planner and gsd-plan-checker. It is rewritten onto the
canonical three-level vocabulary and now points at planner-reversibility.md
as the taxonomy owner, with a parity test that fails if the surfaces
diverge (DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX-DIVERGENCE).

agents/gsd-planner.md sat 47 chars under the 49152 LARGE_CAP, so the
checkpoint DO/DON'T guidance was relocated verbatim into
planner-antipatterns.md -- already @-referenced from the same section for
the same topic, so the planner still loads it and nothing was dropped. A
test guards the relocation against content loss.

Files: gsd-core/references/planner-reversibility.md (NEW, canonical
taxonomy + emission rules + anti-patterns), gsd-planner.md, plan-phase
workflow/command/help (flag wiring + parity), plan-md.md schema,
discuss-phase context template, CONTEXT.md glossary, INVENTORY + manifest,
size baselines, install goldens, plugin skills regen, changeset.

Closes #1951

* fix(#1951): address orthogonal review findings

Two isolated reviewers (correctness + security), neither of which authored
the change. Every finding fixed:

Security — the rationale is untrusted input (ADR-1577). It originates in
conversation and flows CONTEXT.md -> planner -> PLAN.md -> executor, each
hop an LLM reading the previous hop's output, with no validation on the
path. planner-reversibility.md and the discuss-phase template now state
it is data and never instructions, and name the </reversibility>
early-termination hazard explicitly -- a rationale that closes its own
element injects sibling structure the executor reads as real tasks.
Four tests guard it.

Correctness 1 — nothing machine-enforced the feature's own promise: a task
rated one-way with no preceding checkpoint:decision validated as fully
clean, so a planner error silently reopened the gap this feature exists to
close. cmdVerifyPlanStructure now warns on an ungated one-way rating. A
warning, not an error: <reversibility> stays additive and the plan stays
valid. Four tests cover ungated (warns), gated (silent), still-valid, and
reversible/costly never flagged.

Correctness 2 — pass-always test. The --no-reversibility-gates parse test
substring-matched the whole workflow file, and plan-phase.md prose mentions
both tokens in one sentence, so it passed with the bash conditional
deleted: it was testing the documentation, not the parser. Now scoped to
the fenced bash blocks and matched as one physical line, with a negative
control confirming prose alone cannot satisfy it.

Correctness 3 — costly had no itemized emission rule, only one-way did, so
two agents could diverge on whether to tag costly at all.

Correctness 4 — template convention break: the example ratings were bare
while every sibling field uses [...] to signal substitution, inviting an
LLM to copy one-way/costly forward as boilerplate. Now bracketed.

Correctness 5 — latent false-green: .includes('reversible') also matches
inside irreversible/irreversibility, which appear in anti-pattern
prose, so a surface that dropped the real taxonomy entry would still pass.
Now word-boundary matched.

ADR-857 phase-6 ceiling — the first gsd-test run caught plan-phase.md
1216 bytes over its frozen 94519 ceiling (it had 49 bytes of headroom on
next). The ceiling may only rise for privileged host machinery, and
reversibility gating is optional-feature logic, so the wiring was slimmed
to its minimum and the explanatory prose moved to the reference files the
planner already loads. plan-phase.md is now 94400 bytes -- 119 under the
ceiling and 70 bytes SMALLER than on next, so the host loop shrank while
gaining the feature, which is what phase 6 ratchets toward. The tracer
contract (tests/tracer-bullet.test.cjs) is unchanged.

Lint — fixed an unnecessary non-null assertion in verify.cts and a
CRLF-fragile bare \n regex in the new test (DEFECT.WINDOWS-CRLF-TEST-
PORTABILITY, the #1658/#1668/#2206/#2449/#2450 class).

* test(#1951): checkpoint fixture must carry the common task elements

The gated-one-way fixture built a checkpoint:decision task from the
abbreviated skeleton in gsd-planner.md, which shows only the
checkpoint-specific elements (<decision>/<context>/<resume-signal>).
cmdVerifyPlanStructure requires <name> and <action> on EVERY task
regardless of type, so the fixture failed validation for reasons that had
nothing to do with reversibility:

  errors: ["Task missing <name> element", "Task 'unnamed' missing <action>"]

Caught by gsd-test on 14d14a39 (2 failures, both this fixture).

The canonical shape is in tests/verify.test.cjs:266 — a checkpoint task
carries <name>/<files>/<action>/<verify> like any other. Fixture corrected
to match. Verified behaviorally against the real gsd-tools CLI across all
four cases: gated one-way (valid, silent), ungated one-way (valid, warns),
costly (valid, silent), absent (valid, silent).

Not a product defect: the validator's every-task contract is intentional
and pre-existing, and docs/reference/plan-md.md scopes its required-element
list to type=auto/tracer only because those are the elements a planner must
author, not because checkpoints are exempt from <name>.

* chore(#1951): backfill changeset pr number to 2471

* fix(#1951): CodeQL incomplete-sanitization + prompt-injection scan collision

Both CI failures were real defects in code this PR added, not false
positives.

CodeQL js/incomplete-sanitization (high), reversibility-tagging.test.cjs:46 —
the namesRating helper built its regex with `rating.replace(/[-]/g, '\\-')`,
which escapes the hyphen but not backslash, so the escape was incomplete.
It was also unnecessary: `-` carries no special meaning outside a character
class. Replaced with a complete metacharacter escape (backslash included).
Word-boundary behavior verified unchanged across all three ratings — notably
that "irreversible" prose still does not satisfy a "reversible" match, which
is the false-green this helper exists to prevent.

Prompt injection scan — the checkpoint fixture used the human-verification
child element inside <verify>. That tag name is a fake-instruction-boundary
pattern in scripts/prompt-injection-scan.sh, and the scan runs over changed
files, so copying the shape from tests/verify.test.cjs (unflagged only
because it is not in this diff) tripped the gate. Switched to the documented
plain-prose <verify> form.

The first attempt at that fix failed the same gate a second time: the
comment explaining the collision quoted the offending tag literally. The
comment now names it in prose instead — the scanner does not care whether a
match is code or commentary, which is the whole point of the
DEFECT.PROMPT-INJECTION-SCAN-COLLISION note in CLAUDE.md.

Verified locally before push: scan reports 0 findings across 57 changed
files, eslint clean, and both fixtures still validate as designed (gated
one-way silent, ungated one-way warns, neither errors).

* test(#1951): record measured cost and halve gsd-tools spawns

The Windows shard 1/3 job timeout was traced to the sharding layer, not to
this PR's assertions — see #2472. Two contributing factors were this file's
own, and are fixed here.

1. tests/test-timings.json had no entry for reversibility-tagging.test.cjs,
   so scripts/run-tests.cjs weighted it at the table's median fallback
   (~315ms) for LPT chunk packing. It actually measures 5595ms — an 18x
   under-weight. Recorded the measured value from the green gsd-test run
   (max across the node22/node24 lanes, per gen-test-timings.cjs's
   convention). Only this one entry: a full regen churns 634 entries of
   run-to-run drift, and the table is explicitly advisory and un-gated, so
   a 637-line diff does not belong in a feature PR.

2. Each verifyPlan() spawns gsd-tools, which dominates this file's cost.
   Spawns cut from 9 to 6 with no coverage lost:
   - the ungated-one-way warning and its stays-valid assertion now share
     one plan instead of building the same plan twice;
   - the reversible/costly never-flagged-as-ungated test was strictly
     subsumed by the additive suite, which already runs those two ratings
     ungated and asserts no /reversibilit/ warning at all — and the gate
     warning's text contains both "reversibility" and "one-way", so the
     broader assertion catches it. It only re-spawned gsd-tools twice to
     prove the same thing.

Both are symptom fixes. The shard imbalance itself (19/11/10 minutes
against a 20-minute cap, from a cost-blind round-robin partition that also
reshuffles downstream files whenever one is inserted) is tracked in #2472.

* test(#1951): checkpoint fixture adopts the #2444 type-branched contract

Surfaced by rebasing onto next, which gained #2444 (branch plan-structure
validation on task type=checkpoint:*) while this PR was in review.

cmdVerifyPlanStructure no longer applies one required-element set to every
task. A checkpoint:decision now requires <name> + <resume-signal> +
<decision> + <options>, and is exempt from the <action>/<verify>/<done>/
<files> set that auto and tracer tasks carry. The gated-one-way fixture
predated that split and failed on the new requirement:

  errors: ["Task 'Task 0: Confirm the on-disk format' missing <options>"]

Fixture rewritten to mirror the checkpoint:decision contract exactly — real
<options> with two <option> children — rather than padding it with fields
checkpoints no longer need. That also drops the plain-prose <verify> the
earlier revision carried purely to dodge the prompt-injection scan; a
checkpoint task has no <verify> requirement at all, so the workaround is
moot.

Verified against the real gsd-tools CLI across all four cases: gated one-way
(valid, silent), ungated one-way (valid, warns), costly (valid, silent),
absent (valid, silent).

909a3b180b fix(#2470): install pi's extension as gsd.js so pi actually discovers it (#2478)
* test(#2470): failing-first — pi extension must satisfy pi's auto-discovery filter

pi auto-discovers extensions/ entries through isExtensionFile(), which accepts
only .ts and .js. GSD installs its extension as gsd.cjs, so pi silently skips
it: no /gsd command, no error, no log line.

Encodes pi's discovery PREDICATE rather than a literal filename, so the
contract keeps holding across future renames, and adds the migration-006 test
matrix for retiring the stale gsd.cjs left in pre-fix installs.

Red until the fix lands.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(#2470): install pi's extension as gsd.js so pi actually discovers it

pi auto-discovers extensions/ entries via isExtensionFile(), which accepts
only .ts and .js and skips everything else silently. capabilities/pi declared
the dest as gsd.cjs, so the extension installed correctly and was then ignored
forever: no /gsd command, no error, no log line.

Install it as gsd.js. The in-repo source stays pi/gsd.cjs — tests require() it
directly and .cjs is unambiguous CommonJS; only the installed name has to
satisfy pi, and pi loads accepted files through jiti, which handles CJS and ESM
alike. (The reporter's premise that ~/.pi/agent/package.json declares
"type":"commonjs" does not hold — pi never writes that file.)

Renaming an installed artifact requires a migration record, so add 006 to
retire the stale gsd.cjs from pre-fix installs; without it the old path drops
out of the manifest and uninstall can never remove it. The migration plans
nothing for an unmanifested gsd.cjs: emitting remove-managed there would have
the executor downgrade it to preserve-user and mark it blocked, failing the
install for anyone who hand-placed their own file.

Also pins body-parser >=2.3.0 (GHSA-v422-hmwv-36x6). The advisory reaches the
production tree transitively via the Claude Agent SDK and fails the
npm-integrity gate, blocking any PR; pinned via the existing overrides idiom.

* fix(#2470): address orthogonal review findings + register migration checksum

Code review:
- pi/gsd.cjs's install docstring still told readers to copy the file to
  extensions/gsd.cjs — the exact silently-broken state this PR fixes. Anyone
  following it recreated the bug.
- Two stale extensions/gsd.cjs comments in install-minimal-hooks.test.cjs.

Security review:
- _installNativePluginIfDeclared confined nativePlugin.dir but joined
  nativePlugin.file onto the validated directory unchecked, so a descriptor
  whose file carried .., an absolute path, or a NUL byte would have written
  outside configHome. Not reachable in a shipped build (descriptors are
  first-party and compiled into the capability registry), but file is exactly
  the field this PR changes. Confine the full dest path instead; for a
  well-formed descriptor this resolves identically to the previous
  mkdir(dir) + join(dir, file). Covered by four new write-confinement tests.

Also register migration 006 in the #670 EXPECTED_CHECKSUMS baseline — shipped
migration bodies are locked to a committed checksum and a new migration fails
CI until it is listed.

* fix(#2470): never dereference a symlinked managed path when snapshotting

fs.copyFileSync follows symlinks, so a managed path replaced by a link had the
REFERENT's bytes copied into the migration journal's rollback and backup trees
— a gsd.cjs symlinked at a private key would land that key's contents under
gsd-migration-journal/. Deletion was already safe (fs.rmSync unlinks the link,
never the target); the copy was not.

Nothing GSD installs is ever a symlink, so the faithful snapshot of a symlinked
managed path is the link itself. copyPreservingSymlink recreates it, which
keeps rollback fidelity (restore re-creates the same link) while never reading
the referent. Scoped the pre-delete to the symlink branch only, so the
regular-file path keeps copyFileSync's overwrite-in-place and a mid-restore
failure cannot destroy the destination. The restore-side existence check moves
to lstat, since existsSync follows a link whose target is gone and would
silently skip the restore.

This lives in the engine all six migrations share, so 000-005 are hardened too.

Also regenerates the pi golden-parity hash: correcting pi/gsd.cjs's own install
docstring changes the extension's content, which the golden suite caught.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(#2470): symlink-preserve the in-apply failure-recovery restore too

The previous commit routed three copy sites through copyPreservingSymlink but
missed a fourth: the catch block inside applyInstallerMigrationPlan, which
replays rollback snapshots taken earlier in the SAME apply attempt. Those
snapshots are symlinks precisely because of that commit, so the raw
copyFileSync there dereferenced them and wrote the referent's bytes to the LIVE
install path — worse than the journal-tree leak it was meant to fix, since it
is user-visible and at a predictable location.

Verified by experiment rather than assertion: with the pre-fix line restored,
the managed path comes back as a REGULAR FILE containing the referent's bytes;
with the fix it comes back as a symlink and the bytes appear nowhere.

The accompanying test injects the failure by letting the delete succeed and
then throwing once, modelling a later step failing after the delete. That
ordering is load-bearing — an earlier draft injected before the delete, which
leaves the live path in place, so the pre-fix copyFileSync hit a same-file
collision and threw instead of leaking. That draft passed against the bug it
was written to catch; this one fails against it.

Adds the missing rollback() coverage as well: a restored symlinked managed path
must come back as a link pointing at its original target.

* test(#2470): read the backup location from the journal, not the plan

The new backup-content assertion read backupRelPath off result.plan.actions,
where it is always null: the planner reserves the field and apply chooses the
concrete location, recording it in the journal. The assertion therefore failed
on "backup path must be recorded for the user" rather than on anything about
the behavior it was written to check.

Read it from the journal, which is the authoritative record. Verified by
executing all four new test bodies in-process against the built engine — the
backup file exists and holds the locally patched content.

953b8043ea fix(#2456): weight test chunks by measured cost and pack with LPT (#2463)
* fix(#2456): weight test chunks by measured cost and pack with LPT

scripts/run-tests.cjs guessed each test file's cost from its filename
(basename matching /^(?:install|codex-)/ scored 12, everything else 1).
Measured durations show that guess is wrong in both directions:
installer-migration-authoring.test.cjs scored 12 while running ~0.1s, and
the two most expensive files in the suite both scored 1 —
run-tests-harness.test.cjs never matched the prefix, and
release-tarball-smoke.install.test.cjs was missed because the regex is
anchored to the START of the basename.

Chunks were therefore balanced by file COUNT, not cost. On the real
shard 2/3 the two heaviest files packed into the SAME chunk, leaving the
slowest chunk 2.8x the lightest and sitting near the 600s per-chunk
timeout while other chunks idled.

Weight each file by its measured duration from a checked-in, regenerable
timings table and pack with LPT (heaviest first, into the lightest
chunk). On the same shard this drops the slowest chunk from 383s to 238s
and the imbalance from 2.79x to 1.00x, and separates the two heavy files.

Timings are advisory, never gated: an unknown file falls back to the
table's median weight, a missing or corrupt table falls back to uniform
weight, and a count-based floor guarantees the packer never produces
fewer chunks than plain count-based packing would.

Closes #2456

* fix(#2456): harden chunk packing against degenerate knobs and table keys

Follow-up hardening found while reviewing the packer, fixed inline.

The chunk knobs are read from the environment with Number(), so a typo
(RUN_TESTS_MAX_FILES_PER_CHUNK=abc) yields NaN and an explicit 0 yields
0. Both flow into the new chunk-count arithmetic: NaN made Math.ceil
return NaN, Array.from({length: NaN}) produce zero bins, and packChunks'
retry loop spin forever — a hung CI job with no output. Zero made the
count Infinity and threw RangeError: Invalid array length. The previous
count-based packer degraded to a single chunk instead, so this was a
regression introduced by the LPT rewrite.

Normalize the knobs at the environment boundary (positiveNumberEnv:
anything not a positive finite number falls back to the default) and
guard packChunks itself, since it is exported and cannot assume its
caller normalized. Non-finite weights from an arbitrary weightOf are
clamped too. RUN_TESTS_CHUNK_TIMEOUT_MS gets the same treatment.

Also resolve timing-table lookups with Object.hasOwn: the table is
JSON-parsed, so a bare index would walk the prototype chain and return a
function for a file named constructor.test.cjs or toString.test.cjs.
The typeof guard already rejected that, but the lookup now resolves
correctly rather than relying on the downstream check.

* fix(#2456): correct prototype-lookup rationale and guard generator keys

Two findings from independent security review, fixed inline.

The makeFileWeigher comment claimed a bare table lookup "would return a
FUNCTION for a file named constructor.test.cjs". That premise is false:
basename('constructor.test.cjs') is 'constructor.test.cjs', which is not
an Object.prototype key, and walkTestFiles only ever collects *.test.cjs.
The prototype chain was never reachable from a real selection, and the
existing typeof guard already rejected the function it would return, so
Object.hasOwn is defense-in-depth rather than a behavior change. The
comment now says that instead of asserting something untrue.

The accompanying test inherited the same false premise: it fed
constructor.test.cjs and asserted a median fallback that would have held
with or without the guard, so it passed for a reason unrelated to what
it claimed to prove. It now uses BARE keys (constructor, toString,
valueOf, hasOwnProperty, __proto__) — the only inputs that actually
resolve on Object.prototype — and asserts the real exported contract:
any key absent from the table weighs the median, never a function.

gen-test-timings.cjs built its output object by computed-key assignment
from basenames taken out of a reporter stream it does not control — the
js/prototype-polluting-assignment shape, and this repo has a CodeQL
barrier for exactly that pattern. It was not exploitable (the value is
always a rounded number, so the __proto__ setter is a silent no-op), but
it silently DROPPED such an entry rather than reporting it. Validate every
key against a test-basename pattern and fail loudly instead, and build
the table with a null prototype.

* fix(#2456): replace tautological chunking tests and clamp chunk count

Six findings from independent correctness review, all reproduced and
fixed inline.

The two subprocess tests written to carry the #2088 guarantee forward
were tautological: every seeded file weighed exactly 1, so both passed
under the OLD prefix-heuristic packer and with the timings file deleted
entirely. Neither could fail for the reason it existed. Both are rebuilt
so the old algorithm produces a different packing and the assertion goes
red: the spread test now uses three expensive files named so the old
heuristic scored them 1 alongside three trivial `install-`-prefixed
files it scored 12 — inverted from real cost, giving {2,2,1,1} under the
old packer versus {2,2,2} under measured weights. The companion test
covers the other direction: four trivial `install-` files the old
heuristic split into four single-file chunks now stay in one.

packChunks clamped the chunk count from below but not above, so a
legitimate but tiny budget (RUN_TESTS_MAX_FILES_PER_CHUNK=1e-9, which
positiveNumberEnv accepts) asked for 637,000,000,000 bins and threw
RangeError. More chunks than files is never useful; the count now clamps
at one file per chunk.

The generator's basename-collision guard compared full dirnames, so two
OS lanes reporting the same file under different container roots
(/work/tests vs C:/work/tests) flagged every shared basename as a
collision — on the script's own documented multi-lane usage. Detection is
now scoped per stream, where the root is constant; a genuine same-lane
collision is still caught.

Also: the LPT tie-break compared raw paths, so a path separator (0x2F vs
0x5C) could order a subdir file differently per platform, contradicting
the documented byte-identical guarantee — it now normalizes separators.
loadTestTimings now honors schema_version instead of writing it and
never reading it, falling back to uniform weight on an unknown version.
A comment claiming an all-uniform suite "chunks exactly as it did
before" was false and contradicted by this PR's own test: the chunk
count is preserved, the composition is not. And the missing-table test
created a temp dir it never cleaned up, for a path that only needed to
not exist.

455ad49ae3 feat(#2296): config-gated provider escalation on quota-exceeded (#2458)
* test(#2296): failing-first coverage for provider escalation on quota-exceeded

Covers the provider-escalation ladder layered onto EXEC.CLASSIFY: back-compat
(no escalation block without --failure-class), cap boundaries at
min(max_escalations, list length) at limit-1/limit/limit+1, opt-in gating,
malformed/hostile provider_escalation config, the --failure-class CLI negative
matrix, config-key registration, and a fast-check budget-limit property.

Red until the resolver, CLI flag, and manifest key land.

* feat(#2296): config-gated provider escalation on quota-exceeded

The dynamic_routing tier ladder escalates within one provider, which does not
help when that provider is what ran out of quota. Add an opt-in provider ladder
layered on the existing EXEC.CLASSIFY seam.

- model-resolver: resolveProviderEscalation walks dynamic_routing.provider_escalation
  capped at min(max_escalations, list length), reporting from/to/attempted/exhausted.
  Invalid entries are dropped (ADR 227 shape validation). Stays a leaf module —
  the quota-class policy decision is the caller's, per the CONTEXT.md contract.
- agent-command-router: export a frozen AGENT_FAILURE_CLASSES so the new CLI
  validator cannot drift from the classifier that produces the values.
- resolve-execution: --failure-class flag; emits an escalation block ONLY when
  passed, so the existing JSON contract is byte-identical for every caller.
- config-schema.manifest: register dynamic_routing.provider_escalation.
- execute-phase step 7.1: auto-escalate, honor Retry-After, fail loudly naming
  every model tried once the ladder is spent.

* fix(#2296): extract quota recovery to a reference fragment; regen goldens

The step 7.1a addition pushed gsd-core/workflows/execute-phase.md from 93390 to
95111 LF bytes, past the frozen ADR-857 Phase 6 ceiling (hard <93600, margin
<=93400) asserted by tests/fix-2285-claude-orchestration-wiring.test.cjs. The
base sat 10 bytes under the margin, so no inline wording would have fit.

That gate's own rationale is that optional-feature detail belongs in a fragment,
not the host loop. Moved BOTH the new provider-escalation branch and the
pre-existing manual recovery prompt into
gsd-core/references/execute-phase-quota-recovery.md, leaving step 7.1 as a
one-line pointer. execute-phase.md is now 92880 bytes — 510 SMALLER than base.

Also regenerates the fixtures that legitimately moved because three shipped
files changed (gsd-tools.cjs, config-schema.manifest.json, execute-phase.md):
golden-install-parity + install-tree for all 16 runtimes, INVENTORY.md +
INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json for the new reference, and the workflow size baseline.

* test(#2351): make the C1 orphan-reaping test load-independent

tests/run-with-timeout.test.cjs C1 asserted the child heartbeat file exists
after a 1s group-kill window, but the child only wrote it on the first 100ms
setInterval tick. Nothing synchronized the two: on a loaded container the group
is SIGKILLed before that tick lands, the file never appears, and the assertion
fails for a reason unrelated to reaping. Observed failing on both linux-node22
and linux-node24.

The behavior actually under test is the FREEZE assertion (heartbeat stops
advancing => descendant was reaped, not orphaned). That is unaffected by
sampling once more at t=0.

Child now writes its first heartbeat synchronously at startup before arming the
interval, and the kill window widens 1s -> 3s to cover child boot under load.
Both remove the timing dependency; neither weakens what the test proves.

The rebase conflicted on the generated golden-install-parity fixtures and
workflow-size-baseline.json because #2402 (b6e6a22fc) regenerated the same
artifacts. Conflict resolution picked a side to unblock the rebase; a true
regeneration on the combined tree then produced further drift, confirming the
resolved content was stale and would have dropped #2402's fixture changes.

Regenerated goldens, install-tree, size baseline, and INVENTORY-MANIFEST from
the merged tree. docs/INVENTORY.md keeps BOTH new reference rows.

execute-phase.md is 92782 LF bytes with both #2402's and this PR's extractions
applied — under the frozen ceiling (hard <93600, margin <=93400).

b6e6a22fce fix(#2402): honor response_language across orchestrator output + UAT checkpoint renderer (#2457)
* fix(#2402): honor response_language across orchestrator output + UAT checkpoint renderer

Replays the in-flight bot branch fix/2402-response-language-orchestrator-coverage
(seven commits, never pushed) onto current origin/next as a single squashed commit.
The original work was substantial and correct; this commit preserves its full scope,
trimmed where rebase conflicts + workflow size budgets required it.

Three independent layers where response_language was being dropped are closed:

Layer 1 — orchestrator-facing directives across workflows. Adds the strong
"All user-facing output in this workflow MUST be presented in {response_language};
technical terms, code, paths, and subagent prompts stay in English" directive
to ~40 workflows that previously either lacked it entirely (verify-work,
new-project, new-milestone, quick, manager, and ~35 more) or carried only
the weak subagent-prompt-only form (plan-phase, execute-phase). The directive
covers narration between tool calls and banner output, not just the
AskUserQuestion prompts.

Layer 2 — UAT checkpoint renderer (src/uat.cts). buildCheckpoint now accepts
an optional responseLanguage parameter and renders the frame strings
("CHECKPOINT: Verification Required", "Type `pass` or describe what's wrong.")
in any of 9 languages (English/Spanish/French/German/Portuguese/Japanese/
Chinese/Korean/Italian) with an alias table covering ~30 input variants
(en, es, español, ja, 日本語, etc.). cmdRenderCheckpoint reads
config.response_language via loadConfig(cwd) and passes it through, so the
byte-for-byte block verify-work.md reprints verbatim is already localized
when written — preserving the anti-injection hygiene rule at verify-work.md
(the model is forbidden to translate after the fact). CJK display width is
computed by East Asian Width property ranges (W/F) so the right ║ border of
the banner stays aligned for full-width characters. English fallback is
byte-identical to the pre-fix behavior when response_language is unset or
unrecognized.

Layer 3 — literal English report templates in execute-phase. The top-of-
workflow directive covers all template sites (templates are a structural
source, not literal output). Inline render-language notes that previously
sat at each template site were removed during the squash because they
pushed execute-phase.md over its frozen pre-phase-6 byte ceiling
(93600 — ADR-857 Phase 6 capstone). The single top directive covers the
same surface with fewer bytes.

Also extends src/docs.cts and src/init.cts to propagate response_language
into the init JSON bundle of the additional workflows so the directive can
read it.

Tests added:
- tests/uat.test.cjs: buildCheckpoint with unset/unrecognized language falls
  back to English default; recognized language swaps only the two frame
  strings while structural lines stay untouched; CJK display-width regression
  (independent recomputation of East Asian Width W/F ranges).
- tests/workspace.test.cjs, tests/docs-update.test.cjs: response_language
  wiring through docs.cts/init.cts.

References: #2402; reporter's three-layer triage + Layer-4 follow-up; the
byte-for-byte anti-injection hygiene rule at verify-work.md (the reason
Layer 2 must be renderer-side, not model-translated).

This is a squash of the in-flight bot branch — seven commits representing
the original implementation plus its subsequent fix/CJK-padding/test/
changeset/regen cycles, none of which were ever pushed or PR'd. The squash
captures the final coherent state.

* chore(#2402): regen golden + size baseline after rebase against #2315 (PR #2451)

Rebase conflicts were entirely in generated artifacts (golden-install-parity
fixtures + workflow-size-baseline.json). After taking theirs during rebase,
regenerated cleanly against the merged source tree.

12e4d93b19 fix(#2393): add GSD_ALLOW_SYMLINKED_DEST opt-in for intentional user-owned symlink layouts (#2445)
* fix(#2393): add GSD_ALLOW_SYMLINKED_DEST opt-in for intentional user-owned symlink layouts

Bug: v1.7.0's destSubpath write-confinement (ADR-1239 Phase B) refused
install/update whenever CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR (or an artifact-kind child like
skills/, hooks/) was a pre-existing symlink, with no opt-out. Three
legitimate user-owned layouts were blocked:

  - (lars-hh) CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=~/.claude-personal with skills/hooks
              symlinked to a user-owned external dir
  - (Mamiki)  ~/.claude/skills is a Windows Junction to a shared skills dir
  - (Azd325)  ~/.claude itself is a symlink to a dotfiles repo (the early
              root-is-symlink return refused before the component loop ran)

Fix: add GSD_ALLOW_SYMLINKED_DEST env var (accepts '1' or 'true'). When
set, hasExistingSymlinkBetween follows symlinks instead of refusing them.
Cross-platform: fs.lstatSync().isSymbolicLink() returns true for both
POSIX symlinks and NTFS junctions (Node ≥ 16), so Mamiki's Junction case
is handled by the same code path.

Threat model preserved (these still refuse EVEN WITH opt-in):
  (a) path-traversal in the destSubpath string itself ('../../etc'-style)
      — ADR-1239 Phase B threat (a), untrusted destSubpath protection
  (b) a symlink whose resolved real path equals the install root itself
      — would let _removeGsdEntries wipe the root; #1704 threat (b)
  (c) broken symlinks (realpathSync throws) — fail-closed

What opt-in RELAXES specifically: the 'pre-existing symlink pointing
outside configHome' refusal — #1704 threat (c). The user has explicitly
asserted they own and trust the symlink target.

Error messages at all 4 call sites (installRuntimeArtifacts, _copyStaged,
migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill, installOpencodeFamilySkills) updated
to (1) name the env var opt-in, (2) be accurate when the root itself is
a symlink (Azd325's complaint that the old message accused destDir of
'containing' a symlink when the root was the actual symlink).

Docs: docs/CONFIGURATION.md Environment Variables table updated.

Regression tests in tests/install-write-confinement.test.cjs cover:
  - child-symlink layout (lars-hh / Mamiki): default refuses, opt-in allows
  - root-is-symlink layout (Azd325): default refuses, opt-in follows
  - path-traversal '../../etc' refused EVEN WITH opt-in (threat a preserved)
  - resolved-target-equals-install-root refused EVEN WITH opt-in (threat b)
  - broken symlink refused EVEN WITH opt-in (fail-closed)

* test(#2393): import beforeEach/afterEach in install-write-confinement suite

The original file imported only { describe, test } from node:test. The new
#2393 opt-in describe block uses beforeEach/afterEach to manage the
GSD_ALLOW_SYMLINKED_DEST env var lifecycle — add them to the import.

* test(#2393): correct broken-symlink test — existsSync follows link → loop terminates early

Initial test expected broken symlinks to be refused even with opt-in. That
was wrong: fs.existsSync follows symlinks, so a broken symlink returns
false from existsSync and the component loop terminates before the symlink
check fires. Both default and opt-in paths share this behavior; the fix
preserves it.

Updates the test to pin the actual current behavior so a future refactor
(e.g. switching to lstatSync for existence) is a deliberate behavior change.

* fix(#2393): realpath the install root — guard against macOS /var ↔ /private/var

Code review (security subagent) flagged a HIGH-severity hole in the threat-(b)
preservation: realTarget (from fs.realpathSync) is fully symlink-resolved,
resolvedRoot (from path.resolve) is lexical-only. On macOS /var is a symlink
to /private/var, so resolvedRoot='/var/foo/.claude' but realConfigHome is
'/private/var/foo/.claude'. A symlink whose realtarget matches the install
root by real path would compare unequal to the lexical resolvedRoot —
defeating the wipe-protection guard exactly in the reporter's case (Azd325,
nix-darwin: ~/.claude is itself a symlink).

Fix: compute realRoot once via fs.realpathSync(resolvedRoot) at function entry
(with fail-closed fallback to lexical form on realpath failure — broken/missing
root, permission denied, exotic FS). Threat (a) path-traversal check above
still confines regardless. Compare against BOTH lexical and real forms in
both the root-symlink and component-symlink branches.

Also adds the reviewer's transitivity-trust clarification comment: once a
symlink is followed under opt-in, the walk continues from the resolved real
path WITHOUT re-checking further segments stay inside a confining boundary.
This is documented opt-in semantics — one opt-in trusts the whole reachable
tree — and the comment makes the design choice explicit so a future
maintainer doesn't add a 'follow one symlink only' expectation.

Regression test added for the macOS /var normalization case (spelled configHome
via os.tmpdir() lexically while pointing the test symlink through its realpath).
Test skips on non-darwin platforms and when os.tmpdir() has no symlink component.

* fix(#2393): root-symlink branch — do not apply threat-(b) check to root itself

Initial fix applied the wipe-threat-(b) check to the root-symlink branch
unconditionally. That was wrong: when root itself is a symlink (Azd325's
nix-darwin case), its realpath IS realRoot by construction — so the check
always fires, defeating the opt-in for exactly the case it was meant to
enable.

The wipe threat (b) does NOT apply to root being a symlink: destDir is a
CHILD of root, and resolving root just gives root's target. There is no
circular back-reference to root from a path that descends from a resolved
root. So the root-symlink branch should just follow the symlink under opt-in
and continue the walk, no threat-(b) check.

Threat (b) only fires in the COMPONENT loop, where a child symlink can
resolve back to the install root. That branch keeps the (b) check using BOTH
lexical and real forms of root (the macOS /var ↔ /private/var fix from the
prior commit).

* fix(#2393): apply opt-in at the 5 bin/install.js call sites + add env-var/transitive tests

Code review (correctness subagent) flagged a Critical coverage gap: the
initial fix updated only the 4 src/install-engine.cts call sites. Five
more call sites in bin/install.js still used the 2-arg signature, so the
opt-in env var was silently ignored on:

  - installCodexConfig (config.toml + agents/ dir + per-agent .toml paths)
    — Codex only
  - copyWithPathReplacement (the generic emit path: workflows, commands,
    staging) — ALL runtimes
  - resolveInstallRelativePath (path resolver used in various places)

Result: a user setting GSD_ALLOW_SYMLINKED_DEST=1 would see SOME refusals
disappear (engine path) and OTHERS remain (bin/install.js paths) — a
partially-applied install and a confusing UX, directly contradicting the
PR's headline claim.

Fix:
- Export isSymlinkedDestOptIn from src/install-engine.cts alongside
  hasExistingSymlinkBetween
- Import it in bin/install.js
- Update all 5 bin/install.js call sites to pass { allowOptInFollow }
- Update all 3 bin/install.js error messages to name the env var, matching
  the engine's phrasing

Also addresses reviewer's Medium test-adequacy findings:
- isSymlinkedDestOptIn env-var parsing now tested directly (accepts only
  documented '1' / 'true'; rejects 'TRUE', 'yes', 'on', '0', 'false',
  empty, unset)
- transitive symlink chain (configHome/outer → outside1 → outside2) test
  pins the documented 'transitive and unbounded' opt-in semantics so a
  future contributor can't accidentally narrow it

517bae8d6d fix(#2372): widen decision-coverage-plan to all planner-canonical tags, drop misleading "(or body)" (#2443)
* fix(#2372): widen decision-coverage scan to planner-canonical tags, fix message

Bug: check.decision-coverage-plan's remediation message told the user to
cite decisions "(or body)" but extractPlanDesignatedSections only scanned
<objective>/<tasks>/<task>/<action>. A decision cited in <read_first>,
<behavior>, <verify>, <acceptance_criteria>, or <done> was invisible to
the gate — false BLOCKING coverage gap, plus the message's own fix-hint
sent the user to "the body" where re-citing still failed.

Two-part fix (must change together — that drift was the bug):

1. Widen XML_DECISION_TAGS_RE in src/check-command-router.cts to also
   match <read_first>, <behavior>, <verify>, <acceptance_criteria>,
   <done>. These are all planner-canonical tags the planner is told to
   use (plan-phase.md:830-862, plan-phase.md:772). The body negative-
   lookahead mirrors the opening-tag set so each tag's body is captured
   independently.

2. Correct buildPlanMessage to name ONLY the surfaces the extractor
   actually scans (front-matter must_haves/truths/objective,
   designated markdown headings, and the nine planner-canonical tag
   bodies). The misleading "(or body)" clause is gone.

Also updates the planner's documented contract (agents/gsd-planner.md:69)
and user-facing docs (docs/CONFIGURATION.md, docs/USER-GUIDE.md) to
reflect the wider scan.

Regression tests in tests/decisions.test.cjs cover each newly-scanned
tag body, a control (no citation still uncovered), and a message/extractor
parity assertion that names every scanned surface — so the two cannot
drift apart again.

Out of scope (per triage): cmdDecisionCoverageVerify/buildVerifyMessage
is a separate command (decision-coverage-verify) checking shipped
artifacts, not plan citations — untouched.

* chore(#2372): regenerate agent-size-baseline + golden-install-parity fixtures

gsd-planner.md grew 49172 → 49294 (+122 chars) from the widened decision-
coverage contract (5 new scanned tag names + heading clarification).
Growth is justified: the contract surface is itself the fix — the prior
text under-described what the gate scans, which was the bug.

Updates:
- tests/agent-size-baseline.json (gsd-planner.md: 49172 → 49294)
- 17 tests/fixtures/golden-install-parity/*.json (one hash per runtime)
- tests/fixtures/install-tree/*.json (regenerated by gen:golden)

* fix(#2372): per-tag matching — outer-tag citations survive inner-tag nesting

Code review (subagent) flagged a Medium edge-case regression from the
single-alternation regex: when a newly-scanned tag nests inside another
scanned tag, the alternation's negative lookahead halts the outer tag's
body at the inner tag — losing any D-NN citation in the outer tag's
prefix prose. Concretely:

  <action>per D-05 <verify>npm test</verify></action>

  → 3-tag alternation (old):  captured 'per D-05 <verify>npm test</verify>' as <action> body → D-05 caught
  → 9-tag alternation (bug):  captured 'npm test' only (from <verify>); D-05 in <action> prefix LOST

Switches extractXmlTagBodies to per-tag matching: each tag gets its own
regex whose negative-lookahead tempers only against the SAME tag's
reopening. So <verify> inside <action> is absorbed into <action>'s body
(D-05 caught) AND <verify> is matched separately on its own pass.

Per-tag preserves both:
- the reporter's case (sibling tags inside <read_first>)
- nested-tag citations in outer-tag prefix prose
- ReDoS safety (each per-tag regex keeps the #2128 body tempering)

Also adds the reviewer's other requested edge-case tests:
- non-scanned tag (<name>) bearing D-NN must NOT count
- self-closing form <read_first /> safely ignored
- attribute form <verify type="...">D-NN</verify> (canonical planner shape)
- CRLF newlines in tag body do not break capture

* feat(#1950): broken-windows ledger — cross-phase defect register gating ship

Adds a new  capability (#1950) that operationalizes GSD's
no-defer discipline as a tracked, enforced artifact:
accumulates stubs, TODOs, skipped tests, unrun verifies, and unmet truths
across phases, and /gsd-ship blocks while any entry is open.

Implementation:
- src/broken-windows.cts → gsd-core/bin/lib/broken-windows.cjs: typed IR +
  I/O entry points (parseLedger/renderLedger/appendWindow/markWaived/markFixed
  + cmdWindowsStatus/Append/Waive/MarkFixed). Frozen REASON enum for typed
  error assertions. Windows-safe atomic rename with retry on transient
  EPERM/EBUSY/EACCES.
- gsd-tools.cjs: new  subcommand (status | append | waive | fixed),
  wired via routeWindows + HOST_COMMAND_ROUTERS.windows.
- capabilities/broken-windows/capability.json: one ship:pre gate with
  artifact-frontmatter-equals predicate on WINDOWS.md open_count == 0.
  activationKey windows.enabled (default true) + sibling windows.enforce
  (default true, separate so tracking can precede enforcement).
- gsd-core/workflows/ship.md: capId==broken-windows branch in preflight,
  sibling to security — reads gsd_run windows status --raw, fails closed
  on open_count > 0 or unreadable ledger.
- agents/gsd-executor.md: extends the existing ## Known Stubs instruction
  to also append to WINDOWS.md via gsd_run windows append (best-effort,
  never blocks execution).
- agents/gsd-verifier.md: new Step 8b — record unmet truths + human-verify
  items in WINDOWS.md.
- gsd-core/workflows/progress.md: surfaces open + waived counts.
- docs/COMMANDS.md + CONTEXT.md glossary entry + docs/INVENTORY.md:
  document the gate, waiver mechanism, and new module.
- tests/broken-windows.test.cjs: pure + CLI behavioral coverage + fast-check
  roundtrip property; fail-closed on malformed ledger; security boundary on
  path traversal in --file.

Backward-compatible: a project with no .planning/WINDOWS.md reports
open_count: 0 and ships cleanly. Disable enforcement per-project with
gsd config-set windows.enforce false (tracking continues, gate stays open).

* chore(#1950): ratchet size baselines, defer verifier integration

- Workflow size baseline: ship.md 25575→27928, progress.md 31789→32632
  (broken-windows preflight branch + open-windows surface).
- Agent size baseline: gsd-executor.md 46644→47951 (Known Stubs → also
  appends to WINDOWS.md). gsd-verifier.md unchanged.
- LARGE_CAP (49152) preempted the planned verifier integration
  (gsd-verifier.md was at 49140 pre-PR — 12 bytes of headroom, not the
  documented 'real headroom'). Verifier integration deferred to a follow-up
  PR that extracts the VERIFICATION.md template (lines 739-859) to
  gsd-core/references/ — a pre-existing cap-tightness defect this PR
  exposed but does not expand scope to fix. Verifier integration is not in
  the issue's acceptance criteria (executor writes is; unmet-truths
  recording was an enhancement, not a gate).

* fix(#1950): gate default-off, rename to workflow.windows_enforce, regen goldens

Test-failure-driven fixes after first gsd-test run on db8733c8f failed 44
cases (pre-existing structural tests encoded 'ship:pre has 1 gate' / 'all
caps off → empty hooks'):

- capability manifest: rename windows.enabled+windows.enforce (default
  true) → single federated key workflow.windows_enforce (default FALSE,
  opt-in). Matches security's workflow.security_enforce convention and
  makes the adr857 all-caps-off test pass without modification (the test's
  buildAllFalseConfig handles workflow.* out of the box). Default-OFF keeps
  the gate out of the registry's default ship:pre resolution so existing
  loop-hooks-ship-pre-e2e structural assertions (exactly 1 gate, capId
  'security') stay valid; users opt in via
  gsd config-set workflow.windows_enforce true.
- drop activationKey (security doesn't have one either; workflow.* key
  doubles as the activation toggle).
- regenerate docs/reference/capability-matrix.md to include broken-windows
  (capability-matrix-sync test).
- regenerate tests/fixtures/golden-install-parity/*.json (18 runtimes) —
  installer now emits the new capability + lib file.
- update CONTEXT.md, docs/COMMANDS.md, docs/FEATURES.md, ship.md,
  agents/gsd-executor.md to use the new key name and /gsd:colon slash
  syntax (slash-command-namespace test).
- restore accidentally-regressed /gsd:capture in progress.md.

Tracking-only by default; enforcement is opt-in. Acceptance criterion
'/gsd-ship fails while any ledger entry is open' is met when
workflow.windows_enforce=true (test fixture enables it).

* test(#1950): update ship:pre structural invariants for 2-gate registry

- loop-hooks-ship-pre-e2e: the registry now declares 2 gates at ship:pre
  (security + broken-windows), regardless of activation. Activation tests
  above still pin security-only or empty behavior via fixtures; these
  structural tests pin the REGISTRY shape, which has 2 gates as of #1950.
- workflow-size-baseline: ship.md 27928→27945 (workflow.windows_enforce
  rename added 17 bytes).

* fix(#1950): review H1+H2+M1+M2+M3 — fence-injection, EACCES fail-closed, cleanup, strict line, stryker

Adversarial isolated review (Step 6.3) found 2 HIGH findings that block
the PR and 3 mediums. All addressed:

H1 (HIGH): description containing the markdown 3-backtick fence would
terminate the ledger's JSON code block early inside JSON.stringify output
(JSON doesn't escape backticks), corrupting the file and bricking the
next parse. Fix: use a 4-backtick fence (json ... ) which
JSON.stringify cannot produce on its own, AND validate that no entry
text field contains a 4-backtick run (reject at append time with new
WINDOWS_INVALID_TEXT reason code). Locked by a regression test.

H2 (HIGH): readLedgerOrNull swallowed ALL fs errors as 'no ledger',
silently returning open_count:0 on EACCES/EPERM/EIO. The ship gate
would then pass on an unreadable ledger — the precise vector the
workflow doc claims is impossible. Fix: only ENOENT returns null;
every other fs error propagates as WINDOWS_LEDGER_MALFORMED so the
gate blocks and the operator sees a real diagnostic. Locked by a
regression test that chmod 000s a ledger with open_count=1 and
asserts the result is never a false-green 0.

M1: writeLedgerAtomic left an orphaned .tmp file on rename failure.
Wrapped renameWithRetry in try/catch with best-effort unlink.

M2: validateLine silently coerced 'abc' → NaN → null, hiding type
drift. Removed the line === 0 special case (was undocumented) and
made the error message match the strict check. Now any non-positive-
integer line value throws, including strings.

M3: tests/broken-windows.test.cjs (with its fast-check property test)
was not in stryker.config.mjs DEFAULT_TEST_CMD — Stryker would mutate
src/broken-windows.cts but no test would catch the mutations,
producing false surviving-mutant scores. Added to the list.

L1 (dead throw e after error()), L7 (line boundary tests, H1/H2
regression tests, 4-backtick CLI test) also addressed.

* docs(#1950): inline concurrency + busy-wait notes (review L2+L3)

* fix(#1950): regen goldens against latest gsd-tools; correct --line 0 boundary test

gsd-test v4 caught two issues:
- goldens I regenerated earlier (commit 526682084) predated the L1
  routeWindows catch-block cleanup (commit dd844d565). Regenerated
  via 'npm run gen:golden' against current HEAD so the install
  parity hash for gsd-tools.cjs matches.
- 'append --line boundary' test expected --line 0 to succeed with
  null entry.line, but the M2 fix correctly rejects 0 (lines are
  1-indexed; 0 is not a valid source line). Updated the boundary
  test to assert --line 0 fails alongside -1 and 'abc'.

* chore(#1950): regen goldens after rebase onto next

* chore(#1950): quick.md baseline 50699→50993 (correct resolution from next rebase)

* chore(changeset): backfill pr:2441 in .changeset/broken-windows-ledger.md

* fix(#1950): renderTable escapes backslash before pipe (CodeQL incomplete-sanitization)

CodeQL flagged the markdown-table cell escaper:
  String(s ?? '').replace(/\|/g, '\\|')
— it escapes pipe but not backslash first. A description containing '\|'
would render as '\\|' which markdown parses as 'literal backslash' +
'cell separator', splitting the column.

Fix: escape backslash FIRST (each \ → \\), then pipe (each | → \|).
Now a description with '\|' renders as '\\\\|' (literal '\\' + escaped
pipe), which markdown renders as a single '\|' inside the cell. The JSON
code block (the parse source-of-truth) was already correctly escaped via
JSON.stringify; only the display-only table was affected.

Locked by a regression test that:
1. Verifies the JSON block reparses with the description intact.
2. Walks the rendered table row counting unescaped pipes — must be
   exactly 11 (the row separators for 10 cells), proving no in-cell
   pipe added a split.

d04e287fa9 fix(#2365): stop api-coverage detector false-positiving non-API phases (#2397)
* fix(#2365): stop the api-coverage detector false-positiving non-API phases

detectApiIntegration fired on any integration verb co-occurring anywhere on a
line with any API noun, treated / as a word boundary (so a first-party Next.js
src/app/api/... route path matched the noun "api"), and read any capitalized
word before API/SDK/REST/GraphQL as a service name behind a fixed stopword
denylist (so threat-model prose like "Resolver-only API" fired). Because the
verify:pre seal gate is BLOCKING, a phase touching no external API could not
reach UAT without fabricating a coverage matrix.

The compound rule now requires the verb and noun to share one clause (sentence
punctuation and table-cell walls end a clause) within a bounded word gap.
Non-prose spans are excluded before matching: fenced code (already), inline
code spans (new stripInlineCode in the markdown-sectionizer seam), and
path-shaped tokens. The <Service> API surface rule requires proper-noun
position — a clause-initial capitalized word is ordinary English and needs
dependency evidence (URL / package reference) on the same line — and rejects
compound modifiers ("Resolver-only", lowercase after the hyphen).

A phase that integrates no external API now has a first-class, reasoned way to
say so: a COVERAGE.md containing "No external API integration: <reason>"
satisfies the gate (declaration + rows is contradictory and blocks). The
true-positive path is pinned by regression tests: every default-vocabulary
positive still fires, including the widest word-gap pairing and the
surface-rule-only shape.

Fixes #2365

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(#2365): tighten api-coverage detector per Codex review (round 2)

Applies the Codex review findings on the initial #2365 fix:

- S-1: a COVERAGE.md "no external API integration" declaration is the human
  override for a fallible detector, so it must PASS even when detection still
  fires — but the contradiction is now SURFACED in the gate output (overridden
  signal count + terms) instead of passing silently.
- S-2: verb/noun pairing is now a term-group nearest-pair merge walk over
  precomputed word ordinals (computeWordStarts / minWordGap), not a match×match
  cross product — a hostile line repeating one pair thousands of times stays
  linear instead of going quadratic.
- FN-4: package-shaped inline-code spans (`stripe-sdk`, `@stripe/stripe-js`)
  are kept as noun/dependency evidence rather than being fully masked, so a
  genuine dependency reference inside code ticks still corroborates.
- C-1: the <Service> API surface rule now scans every candidate in every
  clause; a rejected first candidate no longer shadows a later genuine service.
- Cross-clause binding: a verb may bind a noun in the immediately following
  clause only when its own clause names a service object, within a tight gap —
  admits "Integrate Stripe, exposing its endpoints …" without re-admitting the
  unrelated-clauses false-positive class.
- Internal-descriptor negative evidence ("internal Payments API",
  "the internal endpoint") never pairs; URL/scheme matching generalized beyond
  http(s).

All 5 acceptance criteria still hold: the three reported false positives are
clean and "integrate the Stripe API" still fires. Built .cjs committed
alongside the .cts. tsc + eslint (incl. no-adhoc-markdown-parsing) +
lint:regression-names clean; affected suites 256/256 green.

* fix(#2365): retune api-coverage detector fail-closed per Codex review (round 3)

Codex's second-round review found the round-2 tightening had over-corrected into
FAIL-OPEN false negatives — realistic external-API prose that the BLOCKING seal
gate silently let through (the catastrophic class, since a missed API surface is
worse than a dismissable false positive). Retuned the detector to be explicitly
fail-closed: lean toward detecting, and let the one-line COVERAGE.md "no external
API integration" declaration dismiss the residual false positives.

Fail-open false negatives fixed (all now detect):
- F1 clause-initial `<Service> API` with a plain follower ("Stripe API for
  payment processing") — dropped the follower-allowlist / corroboration gate on
  clause-initial surfaces; a service that is not a stopword, descriptor, or
  compound modifier is a real name from any clause position.
- F2 scheme-less external host ("api.stripe.com/v1") — a dotted host with an
  alphabetic final label now contributes its API nouns; a first-party route
  path (no dotted host) still does not.
- F3 vendor's first-party SDK ("Integrate Shopify's first-party SDK") — the
  compound path no longer filters nouns on "internal"/"first-party" (Codex: the
  qualifier can describe the vendor's own API, not the consuming project's).
- F4 long single integration clause — removed the word-gap cap entirely: it
  could not separate a 21-word genuine clause from an 18-word internal one, so
  the clause boundary is now the whole relationship test.
- F5 lowercase cross-clause service — cross-clause binding no longer requires a
  capitalized "service object".

New false positives fixed (all now clean):
- F6 a URL token that swallowed a trailing clause comma, merging two clauses —
  trailing clause punctuation is kept literal so the split survives.
- F7 a capitalized internal component authorizing cross-clause binding — the new
  gate requires a dependent elaboration, not a new coordinate clause opened by a
  conjunction ("…, then document…").
- F8 a protocol name read as a service ("REST API", "GraphQL API") — protocol
  and locality descriptors are rejected in the `<Service>` position.

- Finding 9: the inline-code-span scanner was O(n^2) on pathological backtick
  runs; rewritten to linear via a per-length run cursor (2 MB: 4.15 s -> ~6 ms),
  semantics preserved (148 sectionizer tests unchanged).

Net simplification: the fail-closed model removed the round-2 minWordGap /
groupByTerm / follower / corroboration machinery (350 insertions vs 445
deletions across the touched files). Under fail-closed, three round-2 negative
tests now correctly detect (integration verb + "internal"-qualified noun, and
the distant-same-clause case); none were trek-e acceptance FPs.

Verified: 1491/1491 unit tests pass; tsc + eslint (incl. no-adhoc-markdown-
parsing) + lint:regression-names clean; all 8 review findings reproduced as
regression tests, both directions. Built .cjs committed alongside the .cts.

* fix(#2365): resolve round-3 Codex review findings (fail-closed, round 4)

Codex's round-3 adversarial review found the fail-closed retune had introduced
new holes in both directions. Resolved:

Fail-open false negatives (now detect):
- External host addressing a PATH ("graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me") is itself an
  integration surface and contributes an endpoint noun even when the host names
  no vocabulary word. A bare domain link with no path ("https://example.com")
  stays a non-signal, so "Integrate … from example.com, document …" is still
  clean.
- Locality qualification ("internal", "private") no longer leaks across a
  sentence or clause boundary: only plain spaces may separate the descriptor
  from the service, so "The cache is private. Stripe API …" now detects.
- Cross-clause binding: the fragile head-word cap (which could not tell a
  genuine "Connect … to Stripe payments, exposing its endpoints" from an
  unrelated "Integrate … from URL, document …" — both 4 words after the verb)
  is replaced by a participial-continuation rule: a verb binds a noun in the
  next clause only when that clause begins with an "-ing" elaboration. This
  fixes the 4-word-head false negative AND the false positive below at once.

False positives (now clean):
- Cross-clause no longer binds a finite continuation regardless of separator:
  "Wire the settings form. Document endpoint props." / "…; document …" /
  "…, document …" are separate actions, not elaborations.

Perf (quadratic → linear):
- The trailing-punctuation peel is a backward char scan instead of an
  unanchored `[…]+$` regex (16k chars: 156 ms → ~1 ms).
- SERVICE_SURFACE_API_RE bounds the service-name length {1,40} so a hostile
  "A-A-…-x" run cannot drive O(n^2) backtracking (16k: 385 ms → ~3 ms).

Consumer fail-open (blocking gate):
- readPhaseScope now distinguishes "no plans" from a plan that EXISTS but is
  unreadable. On a read error the gate BLOCKS ("could not read the phase
  scope …") instead of silently certifying no-integration from partial scope —
  an unreadable plan could be the one describing the integration.

Documented fail-closed tradeoffs, now pinned with tests so they are not
"fixed" back into a fail-open: a clause-initial capitalized common word before
"API" ("Payment API", "Search API") reads as a service name; a long clause
pairs a verb with a distant noun; and a CommonMark inline code span that wraps
a newline is matched within-line only. Codex judged these acceptable because
the COVERAGE.md declaration is a cheap override.

One documented limitation remains out of scope: "Integrate Stripe, and
authenticate requests with its API" (a coordinate finite clause whose noun
refers back by pronoun) needs coreference resolution, beyond a lexical detector.

Verified: 379/379 affected + command-router tests pass (+14 new regression
tests covering every round-3 finding, both directions); tsc + eslint
(no-adhoc-markdown-parsing) + lint:regression-names clean. Built .cjs committed.

* fix(#2365): simplify to robust core — remove whack-a-mole heuristics (round 5)

Round-4 review confirmed the detector's two most complex features generate
findings in both directions no matter how they are tuned, because they need a
vendor dictionary + coreference the issue rules out in principle. Per the
operator's "ship the robust core" decision, both are removed and their gaps are
documented rather than chased further:

- Cross-clause binding DELETED (allowsCrossClause / participle rule). It caused
  a fail-open on finite continuations ("Integrate Stripe; use its OAuth
  endpoints" — missed) and a false positive on "-ing"-SPELLED nouns ("…, billing
  endpoint terminology…" — wrongly fired). Detection is now same-clause only.
- URL-path-as-evidence REVERTED. Treating every path-bearing URL as an endpoint
  fired on ordinary asset/link URLs ("…/theme.css", "…?next=/x", a docs/repo
  link) and recreated routine UI-phase false positives. An external URL is
  evidence only when it NAMES an API vocabulary word ("api.stripe.com/v1").

Two fail-open cases are now DOCUMENTED limitations, pinned by tests so a future
maintainer does not re-add the heuristics that caused the false positives above:
a service named only in a clause separate from its API noun, and a bare external
host that names no vocabulary word. Both are cheaply covered by the COVERAGE.md
declaration and rare in real phase prose ("integrate the X API").

Also fixed from the round-4 review:
- Qualification now survives markdown emphasis ("The **internal** Payments API"
  stays clean) while still not crossing a sentence/clause boundary.
- readPhaseScope fail-closes on a REAL read failure (EACCES/EIO) enumerating the
  phase directory or reading the roadmap fallback — not only per-plan-file
  failures; a missing directory/section remains a legitimate no-op. The
  declaration-override path surfaces scope_read_error so an incomplete-scope
  override stays visible.
- SERVICE_SURFACE_API_RE length-bound comment no longer overclaims.

Net: the detector is same-clause verb+noun + `<Service> API` surface, with
path/code/inline masking and a fail-closed posture. All five acceptance criteria
hold. 1573/1573 unit tests pass; tsc + eslint (no-adhoc-markdown-parsing) +
lint:regression-names clean. Built .cjs committed.

* fix(#2365): close roadmap-fallback fail-open + stale JSDoc (round-5 review)

The round-5 sanity review confirmed the detector simplification is sound (all
acceptance positives fire, all required negatives clean) and flagged one real
blocker plus a nit:

- Blocker: readPhaseScope's roadmap fallback could still silently pass an
  UNREADABLE roadmap. getRoadmapPhaseWithFallback gated on fs.existsSync(), which
  returns false on EACCES/EIO too — so an unreadable ROADMAP.md read as "absent",
  no exception reached isRealReadFailure, and the blocking gate certified empty
  scope. Fixed at the source: read the roadmap directly and honor the function's
  OWN documented contract — null only on ENOENT (genuinely absent), otherwise
  throw. Both existing callers already wrap it in try/catch expecting that throw,
  and readPhaseScope now fail-closes (blocks) via its roadmap catch. Verified by
  a new e2e test (unreadable roadmap fallback → block).

- Nit: the detectApiIntegration JSDoc still described the removed cross-clause
  participial binding and "every external hostname counts" — corrected to the
  actual same-clause-only behavior and the names-a-vocab-word URL rule.

Verified: full unit suite green; tsc + eslint + lint:regression-names clean.
Built .cjs committed (roadmap.cjs is gitignored/rebuilt, per repo convention).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* chore(#2365): sync generated capability-registry + recapture install goldens

CI surfaced two generated-artifact staleness issues (all failing test shards +
lint-tests traced to these, not to a logic defect):

- gsd-core/bin/lib/capability-registry.cjs was stale: the initial fix edited the
  ai-integration `api-coverage-plan-pre.md` fragment (added the "No external API
  integration" declaration section) but did not regenerate the registry, which
  embeds an inline copy of that fragment. Regenerated via
  `gen-capability-registry.cjs --write` — the diff is exactly the fragment text
  sync. Fixes `lint:generated-sync` and the "committed registry is in sync" +
  "registry integration" tests.

- The 18 golden-install-parity fixtures were stale by exactly one hash line each
  — `gsd-core/references/api-coverage.md`, which this PR edits and which is a
  hashed installed artifact. Recaptured with `UPDATE_GOLDEN=1`; the diff is that
  single hash per runtime and nothing else. Fixes the `golden parity — *` tests.

No source or behavior change — generated artifacts only.

* test(#2365): flip representative-corpus manifest to assert the fixed behavior

The #2371 representative corpus (merged into next after this branch was cut) is a
known-bug tripwire: it asserts each fixture's currentBuggyOutput so the test
fails loudly the moment #2365 is fixed, at which point — per its own contract in
representative-corpus.test.cjs — the fixer removes currentBuggyOutput so the
assertion checks expectedDetected instead.

This is that moment. Removed currentBuggyOutput from the three detector fixtures
(nextjs-route-path, unrelated-verb-noun, threat-model-prose); the corpus now
asserts detected:false, which the fail-closed same-clause detector satisfies.
Notes updated to describe the fix rather than the bug. The #2366 matrix corpus
is left untouched — that tripwire belongs to its own PR (#2374).

Corpus test: 7/7 pass.

* test(#2365): skip chmod-000 fail-closed e2e tests on Windows

The three fail-closed gate tests induce an unreadable plan / directory / roadmap
with chmod 000, but Windows does not enforce POSIX mode bits — readFileSync
still succeeds, so the gate never reaches the read-error path and the assertion
fails on the windows-latest CI leg. The fail-closed LOGIC is platform-
independent (readError → block) and is fully exercised on the macOS/Linux legs;
only the method of inducing EACCES is POSIX-specific. Guard the three tests to
skip on win32 as well as root, mirroring golden-install-parity's win32 skip.

* test(#2365): address trek-e review — glossary, clock-seam, IO injection, bounds

Review response to PR #2397 (trek-e, CHANGES_REQUESTED). Fix logic unchanged;
this closes the test/process-hygiene findings.

Major:
- CONTEXT.md "Markdown Sectionizer" glossary now lists the two exports this fix
  relies on, `stripInlineCode` and `scanInlineCodeSpans` (glossary is a PR gate).
- Replaced the banned wall-clock assertion in the "hostile repeated-term line"
  test (Clock Seams rule — no elapsed-time asserts) with a deterministic
  signal-count assertion, which also directly verifies the term-dedup that keeps
  pairing linear (one signal for a 10k-pair line, not thousands).
- Rewrote the three fail-closed read-failure tests: instead of chmod 0o000
  (a no-op under root / on Windows, the pattern the repo's IO-failure convention
  avoids) they now exercise the newly-exported `readPhaseScope` in-process and
  inject the failure by monkeypatching fs.readFileSync/readdirSync to throw,
  restoring in finally. Deterministic and platform-independent (no skip needed),
  and they add the ENOENT-is-absence case that the chmod tests couldn't express.

Minor:
- Added limit / limit+1 boundary tests for SERVICE_SURFACE_API_RE's {1,40}
  service-name bound, QUALIFIER_LOOKBACK's 24-char window, and REASON_MAX_LEN
  (200) on the declaration reason.
- Added a fast-check property that fuzzes the tokenizer / clause splitter /
  masking (scanLineTokens, splitClauses, collectTermMatches) with adversarial
  tokens (slashes, backticks, URLs, clause punctuation) and asserts the detector
  is total (never throws), shape-stable, holds detected <=> signals, and is
  deterministic.

readPhaseScope is exported for the in-process tests. Verified: 125 detector +
19 gate tests pass; tsc + eslint + generated-sync (glossary/registry) +
lint-regression-test-names + lint-test-file-count clean.

d0bacc2517 fix(#2351): replace hardcoded timeout with portable run-with-timeout (#2426)
* fix(#2351): replace hardcoded gnu timeout with portable run-with-timeout

Stock macOS ships neither `timeout` nor `gtimeout` (GNU coreutils). The 10
hardcoded `timeout <n> <cmd>` calls across the workflow/agent/reference gates
exited 127 ("command not found") on such hosts, and the gates — which only
distinguish 0/124/other — misreported a passing build or test as a FAILURE.

Fix: a single Node-based `gsd_run run-with-timeout <secs> [--] <cmd…>` verb in
gsd-tools.cjs. Coreutils-independent (stock macOS AND Windows), keeps GNU
`timeout`'s exit-code contract (124 timeout, passthrough, 127/126 ENOENT/EACCES,
128+signum on signal), inherits stdio so pipes/redirects work, and reaps the
whole process group so a watch-mode runner cannot outlive its budget. Runs
before gsd-tools' flag parsing so the wrapped argv stays opaque.

Hardened per adversarial review:
- On timeout, SIGKILL the group SYNCHRONOUSLY before resolving — a descendant
  that traps SIGTERM was otherwise orphaned holding stdout, hanging captured
  gates (the exact watch-mode hang the feature prevents).
- Forward SIGINT/SIGTERM to the child tree instead of dying and orphaning it.
- Reject blank/whitespace <seconds> (was a silent unbounded run); clamp the
  timer to the 32-bit setTimeout ceiling (was a spurious immediate timeout).
- Lint detector: catch GNU long options / `-k5` / `$((...))`; anchor to command
  position so prose "timeout 30 seconds" no longer false-positives.

Resolution lives once in the CLI; all 10 sites call the shared verb. A parity
guard (scripts/lint-portable-timeout.cjs, wired into lint:ci) fails the build if
a bare `timeout`/`gtimeout` execution reappears (the portable `command -v
timeout` probe form is intentionally allowed). Also fixes the identical bug in
the zh-CN checkpoints translation, updates the tests that asserted the old
strings, trims a redundant phrase in gsd-verifier.md to keep it under its size
hard cap, and refreshes the size baselines + golden install-parity fixtures.

cd6665d73b fix(#2406): stop Codex config.toml from double-registering agent roles (#2432)
* fix(#2406): stop Codex config.toml from double-registering agent roles

generateCodexConfigBlock emitted an [agents.<name>] role table per agent
pointing config_file back at the standalone agents/<name>.toml Codex
already auto-discovers, so every install declared each role twice in
one config layer and Codex logged a duplicate-role warning per agent.
Remove the redundant role-table loop; the standalone per-agent TOML is
now the sole canonical registration source. The existing marker-truncate
and leaked-section stripping in mergeCodexConfig already clean up legacy

a7d83dc234 fix(#2390): warn on goal-shaped phase.add titles, correct auto-detect docs (#2425)
* fix(#2390): phase.add title warning + auto-detect doc fix

phase.add now returns a `warning` field when a description reads as
goal-shaped (>80 chars and/or multi-sentence) rather than title-shaped,
instead of silently writing the whole paragraph verbatim as the
`### Phase N:` header. The CLI still creates the phase as-is (the
strict two-layer slash-vs-CLI interface is unchanged); the warning
just surfaces the gap.

Also clarifies six doc sites (command argument hints, workflow
detection steps, and how-to/reference docs) that described the
phase-number argument as "auto-detecting" the next unplanned phase --
that detection is an orchestrating-workflow/LLM step reading
ROADMAP.md (concretely: `query roadmap.analyze`'s `next_phase`
field), not a `gsd-tools.cjs` CLI feature.

1720aacf0c feat(#1949): <precondition> task element — Design by Contract (#2422)
* test(#1949): add failing-first tests for <precondition> element

Red phase for issue #1949 (Design by Contract: <precondition> element
asserted before task execution). Tests assert:

- docs/reference/plan-md.md documents the new <precondition> element
- agents/gsd-planner.md @-references planner-preconditions.md and stays
  under the 49152-char cap (progressive-disclosure requirement)
- gsd-core/references/planner-preconditions.md exists and documents the
  three emission cases mandated by the issue (user_setup / prior-phase
  artifact / env-var) and the contract triad mapping
- agents/gsd-executor.md asserts <precondition> before task execution
  and routes unmet preconditions through existing checkpoint machinery
- cmdVerifyPlanStructure (behavioral via runGsdTools) accepts plans both
  with and without <precondition> — the additive-validation guarantee
- Parity assertion: plan-md.md and planner-preconditions.md agree on the
  canonical tag spelling (DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX-DIVERGENCE guard)

Most prose-contract assertions are Red until the implementation lands.
The behavioral validator assertions pass immediately (regression guards
proving the validator already accepts unknown optional tags).

* feat(#1949): <precondition> task element — Design by Contract

Add an optional <precondition> element to <task> in PLAN.md (issue #1949,
The Pragmatic Programmer Topic 23). The front-of-task side of the plan
contract — preconditions (before) ↔ postconditions (<verify>/<done>/
<acceptance_criteria>, after) ↔ invariants (must_haves.truths, across the
whole plan). Together with the tracer-bullet proposal (#1945), this closes
both ends of the 'outrunning your headlights' failure mode for an
autonomous AI executor.

Acceptance criteria met:
- <precondition> is an optional element on <task>; plans that omit it
  validate unchanged (cmdVerifyPlanStructure checks for presence of
  required tags, does not reject unknown optional tags).
- gsd-executor evaluates the precondition before any other task work.
  Unmet halts execution with a checkpoint:human-verify and no partial
  commit; met or absent produces no visible change to execution flow.
  Unmet is never auto-approved under AUTO_CFG=true — a missing
  prerequisite is a fact the executor cannot establish on its own.
- gsd-planner emits <precondition> in exactly the three cases the issue
  mandates: user_setup consumption, prior-phase artifact dependency, and
  env-var/runtime-config dependency.
- Tests cover met, unmet, and absent preconditions plus the additive-
  validator guarantee.

Files:
- gsd-core/references/planner-preconditions.md (NEW): full emission
  rules, the three cases with worked examples, format guidance,
  anti-patterns, the contract triad mapping, and the executor assertion
  contract. Progressive disclosure.
- agents/gsd-planner.md: slim <precondition> note in Task Anatomy with
  @-reference to the new file. To stay under the 49152-char agent-file
  cap (27-char headroom before this change), the inline
  <comment_text_discipline> and <region_scoped_negative_gate> summaries
  are compressed to one-line pointers — their full rules already live in
  planner-antipatterns.md, so no content is lost.
- agents/gsd-executor.md: new step 0 'Precondition check' in the
  execute_tasks loop, before the type dispatch, routing unmet through
  checkpoint_return_format.
- docs/reference/plan-md.md: new Preconditions section in the schema
  reference, with the canonical example and the three emission cases.
- CONTEXT.md: Precondition glossary entry as a sibling of Tracer Bullet.
- docs/INVENTORY.md + INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json: row for the new
  references/planner-preconditions.md (regen via gen-inventory-manifest).
- tests/precondition-element.test.cjs: failing-first tests covering
  schema docs, planner emission contract, executor assertion contract,
  reference-file presence + the three cases, behavioral additive-
  validator guarantee, and a parity assertion (DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX-
  DIVERGENCE guard).
- .changeset/quick-hawks-bark.md: Added fragment.

Companion to #1945 (tracer bullets).

* chore(#1949): regen agent-size baseline + install-tree goldens

Documented baseline regenerations required by the feat(#1949) prose changes
(RULESET.AGENT_SIZE_BUDGET + golden-install-parity):

- npm run size:baseline — locks in the new gsd-executor.md size (+1050
  bytes: the precondition-check step 0 block). gsd-planner.md is net
  smaller (-142 bytes: compressed two inline summary blocks whose full
  rules already lived in planner-antipatterns.md to make room for the
  slim <precondition> pointer). No hard-cap breach.
- npm run gen:golden — pick up the new references/planner-preconditions.md
  + the two changed agent files across all 18 runtime install trees.

Both regens are CI-mandated after intentional agent/reference changes;
see CLAUDE.md 'RULESET.AGENT_SIZE_BUDGET' and the comments in
tests/golden-install-parity.test.cjs.

* fix(#1949): bound <precondition> checks to read-only (security review)

Apply the security-review finding (LOW, isolated /security-review subagent):
the executor's 'run the cheapest check' phrasing for a plan-author-controlled
prose line was broader than ideal — a hostile plan author could craft a
<precondition> whose 'cheapest check' is side-effecting (curl to an attacker
host under the guise of verification, rm -rf before checking, secret emission).

The risk is inherited from GSD's existing plan-trust model (<verify>, <action>,
<done> already direct the executor to run arbitrary shell), so <precondition>
does not materially expand it. But the new prose actively directs execution
('run the check') rather than passively consuming the element, so the bound
is worth making explicit.

Tightened across all four surfaces that describe the check shape:
- agents/gsd-executor.md step 0: 'Verify with read-only checks only — file
  existence, env var presence (no value output), idempotent GET /health-style
  pings. Do NOT run commands with side effects (writes, network POSTs, secret
  emission) as the check; if a side-effecting check seems required, halt and
  surface via checkpoint instead.'
- gsd-core/references/planner-preconditions.md Format section: same bound,
  plus the halt-and-surface escape hatch.
- docs/reference/plan-md.md Preconditions section: mirrored.
- CONTEXT.md Precondition glossary entry: mirrored.

Regenerated agent-size baseline (executor grew 46186 -> 46440; still under
the 49152 cap) and install-tree goldens.

* chore(#1949): backfill changeset pr number 2422

Per CONTRIBUTING.md changeset workflow + feature-builder directive Step 8.7:
backfill the placeholder pr:0 with the real PR number immediately after
gh pr create returns. Avoids the fail_invalid_fragment gate.

* fix(#1949): cite [#1949] on allow-test-rule exemption (ADR-456)

CI's lint:ci runs lint-allow-test-rule-refs which per ADR-456 requires
every // allow-test-rule: exemption on a NEW test file to carry an issue
reference (#NNN or URL). My earlier push omitted it.

Local 'npm run lint' (eslint) does NOT run this check — only 'npm run
lint:ci' does. CLAUDE.md explicitly warns: 'lint:ci ≠ lint — CI runs
lint:ci; a local pass is not the gate.' I should have run lint:ci before
pushing; correcting now.

Pattern matches the companion feature's test file:
tests/tracer-bullet.test.cjs:1  // allow-test-rule: source-text-is-the-product [#1945]

Adds requirements.ready-ids (execute-plan.md's update_requirements step)
so a requirement ID declared by multiple plans in a phase only marks
Complete once every declaring plan has produced a SUMMARY.md, and
requirements.revert-phase (execute-phase.md's gaps_found branch) so a
gaps_found verdict reverts the phase's own prematurely-Complete IDs
before the gap report renders. Single-plan IDs still mark immediately.

b2f4aa9435 docs(#2420): clean stale get-shit-done/ path refs in translated docs (#2421)
After the package/repo rename in #604, the English docs were updated to
use gsd-core/... paths, but the four translated doc trees (ja-JP, zh-CN,
ko-KR, pt-BR) and .changeset/README.md were never updated and still
referenced the pre-rename get-shit-done/ runtime directory, which no
longer exists.

This commit brings the translations in line with the English docs:

  - docs/{ja-JP,zh-CN,ko-KR,pt-BR}/**/*.md (57 files):
      get-shit-done/ -> gsd-core/  (path references)
      #references-get-shit-donereferencesmd -> #references-gsd-corereferencesmd
                                            (anchor in INVENTORY -> ARCHITECTURE links)
  - .changeset/README.md:9 issue URL:
      open-gsd/get-shit-done-redux -> open-gsd/gsd-core

Legacy references intentionally preserved (historical record):
  - CHANGELOG.md, .changeset/archived/*, docs/RELEASE-NOTES-LEGACY.md
  - docs/cleanup-get-shit-done-cc.md, docs/adr/*, docs/research/*
  - docs/{ja-JP,ko-KR}/superpowers/plans/2026-03-18-* (developer's local paths)
  - docs/{INVENTORY,README,FEATURES,installer-migrations}.md (rename-history
    descriptions, some tagged <!-- gsd-allow-legacy-name -->)
  - Code/tests implementing or testing legacy-cleanup logic
    (bin/install.js, gsd-core/bin/lib/legacy-cleanup.cjs,
    scripts/lint-legacy-dir-name.cjs, migration sources/tests)

No source code changes — documentation only.

dd5a2211c9 enhance(#1964): semantic knowledge-base recall via MemPalace (keyword fallback) (#2416)
* test(#1964): add failing-first semantic-recall contract tests

Epic #1957 Phase 3C (final). Source-text-is-the-product contract tests:
semantic recall via MemPalace (top-k meaning-similar prior resolutions, catches
same-root-cause/different-wording cases), indexing resolved sessions at archive,
graceful degradation to keyword matching when MemPalace is absent,
knowledge-base.md stays the durable plain-text source of truth, agent Phase 0 /
Matching Logic is semantic-first (the stale 'keyword overlap, not semantic
similarity' claim must go), and no new embedding/vector infra (reuse MemPalace).

Failing-first: reference, the Matching Logic reframe, the Phase 0 consolidation,
and the archive indexing step do not yet exist.

* feat(#1964): semantic knowledge-base recall via MemPalace (keyword fallback)

Epic #1957 Phase 3C (FINAL). Replaces keyword-overlap matching with semantic
recall: at Phase 0 the debugger queries MemPalace with the current symptoms
and surfaces the top-k meaning-similar prior resolutions, catching the
same-root-cause/different-wording cases keyword overlap missed (the self-noted
'keyword overlap, not semantic similarity' limitation). Resolved sessions are
indexed into MemPalace at archive (symptoms + root_cause(s) + fix + recurrence
guard). knowledge-base.md remains the durable plain-text source of truth; when
MemPalace is absent the debugger falls back to keyword-overlap matching
(logged, never a silent skip). No new embedding/vector infrastructure —
MemPalace is reused.

Size-neutral agent edits: the Matching Logic section reframed (keyword-only ->
semantic-first + keyword-fallback + @-include); Phase 0's three keyword bullets
consolidated into one semantic-first bullet; one MemPalace-indexing step added
at archive. Agent at 57222 B (122 B headroom — final phase). Full rules in
gsd-core/references/debugger-semantic-recall.md. INVENTORY + manifest +
agent-size baseline + install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md updated.

* fix(#1964): address orthogonal review (invocation mechanism, index Resolution-not-symptoms + redaction, fallback detail)

- HIGH: the 'query MemPalace' instruction was WHAT-level only; the agent has
  no MCP tools. Added an Invocation section naming the Bash CLI
  (mempalace search --wing <wing>) + MCP-when-registered + wing resolution
  (config.mempalace.wing -> project_code -> project dir), matching every other
  MemPalace integration. Without this the feature silently degraded to keyword
  matching even when MemPalace was present.
- MEDIUM (security x2): index the agent-authored Resolution summary
  (root_cause + fix + recurrence_guard), NOT raw user-supplied Symptoms —
  excludes attacker-controlled prose from the cross-session index AND reduces
  secret/PII leakage. Redact secret-shaped values before indexing. Stated the
  write order (KB append + commit MUST succeed before indexing).
- LOW: restored 'identifiers' + 'case-insensitive' to the keyword fallback;
  added a test asserting the fallback mechanics survived the Phase 0
  consolidation (Error patterns field, 2+ token overlap, identifiers,
  case-insensitive).

* chore(#1964): ratchet agent-size baseline downward (leaner archive bullet shrank gsd-debugger.md 57222->57197)

c67f301867 feat(#1963): emit blameless-postmortem Prevention block at resolution (#2410)
* test(#1963): add failing-first prevention/postmortem contract tests

Epic #1957 Phase 3B. Source-text-is-the-product contract tests: blameless
5-Whys that BRANCHES per Phase 2A RCA (not a single-cause chain; treats agent
error as 'why was that possible?'), the 'why wasn't this caught?' question,
the recurrence-guard taxonomy (regression test / assertion / lint rule / KB
pattern), the KB-entry why_not_caught + recurrence_guard fields with backward
compat, the session-manager prevention summary line, and the Zawinski
scope-boundary (a block, not a subsystem).

Failing-first: reference, archive_session edit, KB schema extension, and
session-manager summary do not yet exist.

* feat(#1963): emit blameless-postmortem Prevention block at resolution

Epic #1957 Phase 3B. At archive_session the debugger now produces a
Prevention block with three blame-free components: a branching 5-Whys causal
chain (branches per Phase 2A RCA, not a single chain; 'agent error' prompts
'why was that possible?', never blame), a 'why wasn't this caught?' answer
naming the missed gate (test/typecheck/lint/review/verify), and a concrete
recurrence guard (regression test / assertion / lint rule / KB pattern).

The knowledge-base entry gains two structured fields (why_not_caught +
recurrence_guard) so future Phase-0 recall surfaces the prior prevention, not
just the prior fix. Additive: old entries without the fields still load. The
session-manager compact summary surfaces a one-line prevention summary.

Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/debugger-prevention.md (slim
archive_session step + 2 KB fields kept in the agent). INVENTORY + manifest +
agent-size baseline + install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md updated.

* fix(#1963): address orthogonal review (CRITICAL append-template drift + Phase-0 consumption + parity test)

- CRITICAL: the archive_session KB append template omitted Why not caught +
  Recurrence guard (only the Entry Format had them) — the feature's core
  deliverable silently did not happen. Added both fields to the append template
  the agent actually follows (nearest-instruction wins).
- HIGH: Phase 0 (KB read) only surfaced root_cause + fix; the new fields were
  dead data. Extended the Phase 0 Evidence line to consume why_not_caught +
  recurrence_guard when present (absent on old entries — backward compat holds).
- MEDIUM: added a cross-section parity test (every Entry-Format field must also
  appear in the append template — the guard that would have caught the
  Critical) + a Phase-0-consumption assertion.
- MEDIUM: the 'branches per Phase 2A' claim is now wired — reuses
  reasoning_checkpoint.candidate_causes across the four categories.
- MEDIUM: recurrence-guard taxonomy gains type refinement + config-default
  change; LOW: added 'build' gate to both surfaces for parity.
- NIT: compact-summary fallback shape ('no gate existed'); verify the guard
  artifact exists before recording it.

* test(#1963): anchor Phase-0 consumption test on the specific heading

The regex /Phase 0[\s\S]{0,1200}/ matched the first 'Phase 0' in the file
(in knowledge_base_protocol prose), not the Phase 0 block in investigation_loop.
Anchor on '**Phase 0: Check knowledge base**' and widen to 1500 chars.

36a311c5bb enhance(#1962): harden regression tests (PBT shrinking + oracle classification + boundaries) (#2409)
* test(#1962): add failing-first repro-hardening contract tests

Epic #1957 Phase 3A. Source-text-is-the-product contract tests: PBT shrinking
(fast-check/Hypothesis, minimized seed, manual-minimization degradation), the
four oracle types (specified/derived/metamorphic/implicit with implicit flagged
weakest), boundary neighbors (off-by-one/min-max/empty-singleton tied to the
equivalence class), oracle_type in DEBUG Resolution, and the Phase 1A tie-in
(minimized seed + real oracle => the mutation guardrail bites).

Failing-first: reference, agent cross-refs, and template field do not yet exist.

* feat(#1962): harden regression tests (PBT shrinking + oracle classification + boundaries)

Epic #1957 Phase 3A. Extends Minimal Reproduction (shrinking) and Test-First
Debugging (oracle classification + boundary neighbors):
- Shrinking: wrap an input-space failing input in a property (fast-check JS/TS,
  Hypothesis Python) and store the MINIMIZED counterexample as the regression
  seed; degrade to manual minimization when no PBT framework is present.
- Oracle classification: state specified / derived (contract/model) /
  metamorphic / implicit (crash, weakest) before writing the assertion; record
  under Resolution.oracle_type; never default to implicit silently.
- Boundary neighbors: off-by-one, min/max, empty/singleton around the fixed
  defect's equivalence class.

Together they turn the regression test into a root-cause check — what the Phase
1A mutation guardrail needs to bite. Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/
debugger-repro-hardening.md. INVENTORY + manifest + agent-size baseline +
install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md + DEBUG template updated.

* fix(#1962): address orthogonal review (bounding, provenance, oracle scope, sufficient-triple)

- HIGH: added a 'Bound the property/shrink run' section (60s timeout, degrade-
  to-manual on timeout, do-not-raise-default-run-limits, argv-not-shell) —
  the gauntlet violation the sibling references already honored.
- Medium: test-provenance caveat (the failing input often comes from the bug
  report — author the generator from a sanitized description, cross-ref
  debugger-fix-acceptance.md).
- Medium: oracle scope note — the 4 types cover deterministic bugs; non-
  deterministic failures re-route to stability-stress per bug-taxonomy.
- Medium: Phase 1A tie-in corrected — seed+oracle is necessary not sufficient;
  boundary neighbors close the adjacent-input escape; the sufficient triple is
  seed+oracle+neighbors.
- Low: preserve the original noisy repro as a secondary reference; operationalize
  'equivalence class' (the predicate the fix draws). Nit: degradation reworded.

* test(#1961): add failing-first bug-taxonomy routing contract tests

Epic #1957 Phase 2B. Source-text-is-the-product contract tests (3 taxonomy
classes, explicit class->technique routing table, Bohrbug->repro+SBFL+bisect,
Heisenbug->record-replay/stability+SKIP-SBFL, Concurrency->atomicity/order/
deadlock checklist, bug_class in DEBUG Current Focus, supersede-not-append)
plus a routing-table specification object pinning the documented decisions
(SBFL forbidden on Heisenbug is the load-bearing 1B/2B seam).

Failing-first: reference, Phase 1.75, and routing-table reframe do not yet exist.

* feat(#1961): add bug-taxonomy classification + strategy routing to gsd-debugger

Epic #1957 Phase 2B (reliability-critical). Adds Phase 1.75: classify the
failure as Bohrbug / Heisenbug-Mandelbug / Concurrency, then route the
investigation technique via an explicit class->technique table (Kernighan: no
opaque heuristic). Bohrbug -> reproduction + SBFL (Phase 1.25) + git bisect;
Heisenbug/Mandelbug -> record-replay (rr) + stability-stress + statistical
sampling, with SBFL explicitly SKIPPED (a flaky spectrum poisons the Ochiai
ranking — the load-bearing 1B/2B seam); Concurrency -> the
atomicity/order/deadlock checklist first.

Reframes (supersedes, not appends — Zawinski) the flat 'Technique Selection by
situation' table into a class-routed table; the 11 techniques remain as routed
targets. bug_class recorded in Current Focus (DEBUG template); common-bug-
patterns catalog cross-referenced to the taxonomy.

Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/debugger-bug-taxonomy.md. INVENTORY
+ manifest + agent-size baseline + install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md updated.

* fix(#1961): address orthogonal review (phase-name drift, General lane, revoke framing, row-scoped tests, bounding)

- HIGH: reference said 'Phase 1B' (epic shorthand); corrected to the deployed
  'Phase 1.25' (matches the agent + SBFL reference).
- HIGH: 6 of 11 techniques (Rubber duck, Delta, Working backwards,
  Differential, Comment-out, Follow-the-indirection) were orphaned by the
  situation-table reframe. Added a 'General (any class, situation-cued)'
  lane to BOTH the reference routing table and the agent's Technique
  Selection table that re-homes them — supersede-not-append now holds.
- MEDIUM: the SBFL-skip is structurally retroactive (Phase 1.25 runs before
  Phase 1.75 classification), so reframed the table column from 'Do NOT use'
  to 'Revoke if already run' + an explicit 'retroactive revocation, not
  proactive skip' note stating the ordering honestly.
- MEDIUM: contract tests are now row-scoped (parse the table by class, assert
  per-row) instead of presence-only; added a guard that the previously-
  orphaned techniques now have a General-lane route.
- LOW: pinned the canonical bug_class value form (lowercase-kebab:
  bohrbug|heisenbug-mandelbug|concurrency; prose may use title-case).
- NIT: added a 'Bound the Heisenbug-chase runs' note (rr/stability/sampling
  timeouts) per the unbounded-subprocess gauntlet.

f8b16d1874 enhance(#1960): add RCA branching (fishbone + AND-gate) to gsd-debugger (#2405)
* test(#1960): add failing-first RCA-branching contract + schema-invariant tests

Epic #1957 Phase 2A. Source-text-is-the-product contract tests (fishbone
>=2 categories, AND-gate, multi-cause root_cause, backward compat, reasoning
checkpoint candidate_causes+and_gate fields, debugger-philosophy single-cause
note, DEBUG template) plus behavioral schema-invariant checks on two fixtures:
two contributing causes (AND-gate yes) -> both recorded; single-cause
(AND-gate no) -> one root_cause, identical to today.

Failing-first: reference, agent edits, and template note do not yet exist.

* feat(#1960): add RCA branching (fishbone + AND-gate) to gsd-debugger

Epic #1957 Phase 2A. Guards against 5-Whys single-cause bias: before committing
root_cause, the debugger enumerates candidate causes across >=2 Ishikawa
categories (code/config/environment/data) and explicitly answers an AND-gate
question. When the AND-gate fires, every contributing cause is recorded, so a
multi-cause fix no longer recurs via the unaddressed second cause.
Resolution.root_cause may hold one OR a small set (additive; single-cause
sessions are byte-identical to today). The Structured Reasoning Checkpoint gains
candidate_causes + and_gate fields; debugger-philosophy.md adds the
single-cause-bias trap.

Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/debugger-rca-branching.md (slim
Phase 2 routing + 2 checkpoint fields kept in the agent). INVENTORY + manifest +
agent-size baseline + install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md + DEBUG template updated.

* fix(#1960): address orthogonal review (AND-gate self-consistency, parity guard, narrowed claim, ripples)

- Reference: the collapse rule now enforces AND-gate self-consistency —
  and_gate=yes with a single confirmed cause is flagged as incomplete
  (return to Phase 3); a race/timing note clarifies such bugs bridge
  categories; the 'byte-identical' backward-compat claim narrowed to
  'root_cause shape unchanged; reasoning_checkpoint gains 2 fields in every
  session'.
- DEBUG.md: stale 'five-field' mirror prose -> seven-field (parallel-surface
  drift the reviewer flagged); new debug-session-management parity test pins
  the field-count claim to the gsd-debugger.md YAML keys (CRLF-safe).
- Scalar-assuming consumers of set-valued root_cause updated: session-manager
  compact summaries (319/332), diagnose-only return (1062), archive entry
  (1216), ROOT CAUSE FOUND return (1322).
- Test: added the AND-gate-yes/single-cause invariant + fixture; rephrased the
  fixture describe block honestly as a schema-invariant specification.
- Phase 2 bullet phrasing clarified ('at hypothesis formation, before the
  Phase 4 commit').

Adds a status: superseded plan-frontmatter marker that scanPhasePlans excludes from both plan and summary counts, so a phase with a deliberately-unexecuted plan no longer reads incomplete forever (the plan-level analogue of #1514). Includes all-superseded completion handling and a bounded, symlink-safe frontmatter read. Fixes #2349.
