041414c4ad feat(#3309): generate health.md's error-code and repair-action tables
Closes the issue's explicit acceptance criterion: "health.md's tables
are generated rather than hand-maintained, closing the 16-vs-30+
documentation gap structurally." The published roster listed 16 codes
against 30+ actually emitted; W010-W017 and W020-W023 had never been
documented.

Adds description/repairable as static fields on Rule (health-diagnostic-types.cts)
— generation needs a fixed, human-readable summary per code, distinct
from the dynamic per-instance Diagnostic.message a rule's check()
produces. repairable is true only when --repair will actually apply
the remedy: false for ADVISE-only rules AND for DESTRUCTIVE-risk rules
(regenerateState/resetConfig), which are described but never
auto-applied — matches verify.cts's diagnosticToIssueEntry semantics
exactly, after fixing E004/E005's static field to agree with it (both
were wrongly true, an inconsistency caught during this same commit's
own review, not left for later).

New scripts/gen-health-docs.cjs (--write/--check, wired into
lint:generated-sync) regenerates the two tagged table regions in
gsd-core/workflows/health.md from RULES (31 rules) plus the 3
pre-checks that stay outside the rule table by design (E001, E010,
I010) plus a small static Effect/Risk lookup for the 6 real repair
actions — including addAiIntegrationPhaseKey, live in code since an
earlier phase but never documented until now. 34 error-code rows, 6
repair-action rows. The table's old "grep verify.cts for the next free
number" footnote is rewritten to point at the rule table and its lint
guard instead.

4f9e5cf2ed fix(#3309): make the lint guard's W024 exemption explicit, not accidental
W024's committed rule (state-consistency.cts) is a documented permanent
no-op — its real check runs in cmdValidateHealth itself, outside the
rule table, since readStateHeadFreshness needs a git-log shell-out no
Rule.check may perform. The guard's §8.5 fixture-proof check previously
"passed" for W024 only because some test file's title happened to
contain the string "W024" — not because any fixture actually proves it
fires, which it structurally never can. Found by the Spec-axis
orthogonal review.

Adds an explicit PERMANENTLY_INERT_CODES map (currently just W024,
with its reason recorded) that checkFixtureProofInvariant reports
separately from real coverage. The guard's PASS output now says
"30 covered by a real fixture, 1 exempted" instead of implying uniform
proof — a code with no coverage and no exemption entry still fails.

03258a07a2 fix(#3309): applyRepairs must not count a failed repair as applied
applyRepairs pushed a diagnostic's code onto applied unconditionally
after the try/catch around runRepairAction, even when the handler
threw (caught, recorded in details with success:false) or otherwise
failed — making applied mean "attempted" rather than "succeeded," with
no test exercising the failure path. Found by the Spec-axis orthogonal
review.

applied now only receives a code when the repair actually succeeded;
a failed attempt is still fully recorded in details (success:false,
the error message) but no longer misreported as applied. Adds a
regression test forcing addNyquistKey to throw (ENOENT on a config.json
that doesn't exist) and asserts it lands in details, not applied.

1255f960db fix(#3309): restore W027's active-worktree exclusion
The migrated checkW027 (stale worktree) dropped the pre-migration
exclusion of the CLI's own current worktree, since a Rule.check(snapshot)
has no cwd access (§8.1 rule 1 forbids ambient I/O) — flagged as a
disclosed regression during this phase's own design work, then
confirmed as a real, fixable gap by the Spec-axis orthogonal review
rather than an inherent limitation.

Fixes it properly instead of accepting the regression: buildPlanningSnapshot(cwd)
already receives cwd as its own input, so exposing it as snapshot.cwd
is not new ambient I/O, just surfacing an existing parameter — fully
consistent with §8.1 rule 2's "parsed value" allowance. checkW027 now
excludes the entry matching snapshot.cwd before flagging, matching the
original verify.cts:2233-2242 behavior exactly.

42729b21fa fix: scan bin/lib subdirectories in the inventory-manifest generator
gen-inventory-manifest.cjs's cli_modules family did a flat readdirSync
of gsd-core/bin/lib/, invisible to anything shipped in a subdirectory.
Found while registering this phase's 8 health-diagnostic-rules/*.cjs
files in docs/INVENTORY.md (Standards-axis review) — the automated
manifest cross-check couldn't see them even though the manual
INVENTORY.md rows were correct.

Adds collectOneLevelSubdirs (mirrors the existing collectNested's
defensive statOrNull style) and merges flat + one-level-subdirectory
results into cli_modules's single sorted array, using the same
<subdir>/<file>.cjs key format INVENTORY.md's rows already use.

Regenerating the manifest surfaced that three OTHER existing
subdirectories (installer-migrations/, host-integration-adapters/,
observability/ — pre-existing, unrelated to this phase) were equally
invisible and had zero docs/INVENTORY.md rows at all. Added all 15
missing rows rather than leave a gap the fix itself just exposed.

Also fixes 3 pre-existing lint-legacy-dir-name violations in the
installer-migrations rows (legitimate references to the historical
get-shit-done -> gsd-core rename these migrations clean up — marked
with the guard's own gsd-allow-legacy-name exemption) and a stale
health-diagnostic.cjs row that still said "RULES ships empty."

d1760e3c31 refactor(#3309): migrate cmdValidateHealth onto the rule table
Replaces cmdValidateHealth's hand-rolled addIssue/switch accumulation
(961 lines) with buildPlanningSnapshot -> evaluateRules -> map to the
legacy {code, message, fix, repairable} shape, bucketed by severity.
Two pre-checks (home-dir E010/I010, .planning/-root-missing E001) stay
outside the rule table entirely, per ADR-3180 §8.2 rule 4 ("no
precedence system") — building "some rules suppress others" into the
table would itself be the forbidden precedence system.

W024 (STATE.md commit-age freshness) also stays outside the table:
its committed rule is a documented permanent no-op (readStateHeadFreshness's
git-log shell-out is ambient I/O a Rule.check may never perform, and no
PlanningSnapshot field carries a commits-behind count). Migrating onto
the rule table as designed would have silently regressed 7 passing
tests in tests/health-validation.test.cjs — found while wiring this
function, kept as a real check in the wrapper instead (same I/O
license applyRepairs already relies on), fixed inline per this repo's
no-defer policy rather than accepted as a silent loss.

Ports the real repair-handler bodies (createConfig/resetConfig,
regenerateState, addNyquistKey/addAiIntegrationPhaseKey,
backfillMilestones) into health-diagnostic.cts's applyRepairs,
replacing the skeleton's stub. DESTRUCTIVE-risk remedies
(resetConfig/regenerateState) are refused by --repair — a disclosed
breaking change; repairable now means "an automatic repair will
actually run," not merely "a remedy exists to describe," so E004/E005
now report repairable:false. --backfill alone now actually triggers
backfillMilestones, fixing a latent bug where its gate was unreachable
without --repair also being set (verify.cts:2504, confirmed dead code
pre-migration).

Test updates distinguish the two explicitly-authorized behavior
changes (DESTRUCTIVE refusal, backfill-alone fix, W021->W026 split)
from preservation — every changed assertion is commented with why, and
new regression tests were added for both changes plus W021/W026
mutual independence. Drift-guard bookkeeping (bypass-baseline shrunk
to the one disclosed W024 exception, milestone-window and
phase-enumeration exemptions, test-file-count allowlist) updated for
the relocated/new functions this migration introduces.

acc1a7abd6 feat(#3309): add health-diagnostic rule-table lint guard
Enforces ADR-3180 §8.2's 1:1 rule-code invariant (every code unique,
every severity a property of the Rule) and §8.5's fixture-proof
invariant (every code has a describe()/test() block naming it,
verified statically against tests/health-diagnostic-rules/*.test.cjs
and tests/health-diagnostic.test.cjs) for the new RULES table.

Adapted from the design doc's original plan of separate
tests/fixtures/health-diagnostic/<code>.* files: implementation used
inline temp-dir fixtures instead (mirrors tests/planning-snapshot.test.cjs),
so coverage is checked statically against test-file structure, mirroring
lint-fix-has-regression-test.cjs's house style. Wired into lint:ci
adjacent to lint-planning-snapshot-bypass-drift.cjs, its closest sibling.

Passes clean against the real tree: 31 codes, all unique, all covered.

c5543e533c refactor(#3309): extend planning-snapshot.cts with 8 more parsed fields
Phase 11 of epic #3180 (ADR-3180 §8.1 rule 2). PlanningSnapshot grows from
7 fields to 15: projectSections, statePhaseTokens, stateStatus,
roadmapDeclaredPhases, roadmapPhaseCheckboxes, researchValidationStatus,
milestoneArchiveStatus, planningRootFiles.

Every field is a reused owner (buildRoadmapPhaseVariants/
buildNotStartedPhaseVariants from src/validate.cts, stateFieldValue) or a
small relocation of already-working verify.cts logic (PHASE_NUMBER_TOKEN_SOURCE
scanning, the checkMilestonePrefixMismatches sectionRx walk, W009/W018's
file-existence checks) — never a new algorithm, and never raw document text:
§8.1 rule 2 forbids exposing raw text, not exposing a parsed list or boolean
derived from it once by the snapshot builder.

roadmapPhaseCheckboxes deliberately reads the same ROADMAP checkbox
isPhaseComplete (§7.4, disk-strict) refuses to consult — that owner decides
completion and must not read it; this field only exposes what the checkbox
says, for a diagnostic (W011) whose whole purpose is flagging disagreement.
Not a re-derivation of §7.4, recorded explicitly to prevent that reading.

Adds PROJECT_UNREADABLE to UNUSABLE_REASON (ninth #1879 site), closing a
gap the implementing agent correctly flagged rather than silently leaving
absent-vs-corrupt collapsed for PROJECT.md, matching the STATE_UNREADABLE/
CONFIG_UNREADABLE precedent from this same effort's prior commits.

currentPhaseLabel/statePhaseTokens/stateStatus share one STATE.md read
(buildStateFields) rather than three independent reads.

Additive only — all prior fields and worstScope/buildPhaseSnapshot
unchanged.

6aa378b261 refactor(#3309): extend planning-snapshot.cts with config/agentInstall/worktreeHealth
Phase 11 of epic #3180 (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5) foundation. Extends the
already-merged Phase-10 PlanningSnapshot additively with three fields the
upcoming health-diagnostic rule table needs and Phase 10 never required:

- config: {value, scope, exists} — parsed .planning/config.json. `exists`
  distinguishes absent (no diagnostic, non-answer) from present-but-invalid
  (CONFIG_UNREADABLE diagnostic, corruption) — both collapse to scope
  UNREADABLE, so a rule needs the extra bit to tell "not configured yet"
  apart from "config.json is broken."
- agentInstall / worktreeHealth — not .planning/-sourced, wrap the existing
  checkAgentsInstalled/inspectWorktreeHealth owners with the same arguments
  cmdValidateHealth already passes them, so a later migration step reads
  these fields instead of calling the owners itself.

Adds CONFIG_UNREADABLE to src/unusable-input.cts's UNUSABLE_REASON (eighth
#1879 site), mirroring STATE_UNREADABLE's exact shape from Phase 10.

Additive only — the four Phase-10 fields and worstScope/buildPhaseSnapshot
are unchanged; existing tests for them are untouched.

2bd1d12369 fix(#3308): compare guard-produced file fields against POSIX-normalized paths in Windows CI
PR #3402's real Windows CI (windows-latest node22/24) caught what gsd-test's
Linux-only lanes structurally cannot: tests/planning-snapshot-bypass-drift.test.cjs
compared the guard's own POSIX-normalized output (findSnapshotBypassDrift's
`file` field, dedupeViolationsForBaseline/sortEntries entries, a written
baseline read back from disk) against REGISTERED_FILE, which is built via
path.join('src', 'verify.cts') and is therefore backslash-separated on
Windows. The guard always normalizes its OUTPUT to POSIX via toPosixRel
regardless of the input separator form, so the comparison only ever
coincidentally passed on POSIX.

Adds REGISTERED_FILE_POSIX for every assertion against a guard-PRODUCED
value (including baseline fixtures fed into diffAgainstBaseline, which are
matched by exact string key against the guard's normalized output).
REGISTERED_FILE itself is unchanged and still used, correctly, everywhere it
is the relPath INPUT to findSnapshotBypassDrift or a DIAGNOSTIC_RULE_FUNCTIONS
Map-key lookup — both need the platform-native form to match the guard's own
Map key, which is also path.join-constructed.

No behavior change on POSIX (both constants are byte-identical there).

21c46ecf52 fix: scope safe.directory ownership bypass to the real-repo-root git ls-files call
Found while running gsd-test for #3308: tests/commit-files-pathspec.test.cjs's
repo-wide `--files` scan runs `git ls-files -z -- *.md` directly against the
checked-out repo root (not a createTempGitProject() fixture, unlike every
other gitOrThrow call in this file). Inside a container-provisioned test
runner the checkout's on-disk owner can legitimately differ from the running
UID, tripping git's CVE-2022-24765 dubious-ownership guard and failing the
scan closed (exitCode 128) rather than reporting a real file-list result —
reproduced on gsd-test's linux-node22 and linux-node24 lanes.

Adds `-c safe.directory=*` to that ONE invocation only, so the bypass is
scoped to this call rather than a global `git config` write that would leak
into every other git call in the process.

No source behavior changed; test-infrastructure resilience only.

to currentMilestoneRawRanges' primary window so the entry lands at the end of
the active phase list. Fall back to the legacy whole-file heuristic when no
current milestone resolves, preserving simple no-milestone roadmaps. Applies
to both cmdPhaseAdd and cmdPhaseAddBatch (identical expression); the decimal
insert path was already header-anchored and is untouched.

3ff9a7ffcd fix(#2570): parse leading date from last_activity so stale_activity fires with a description suffix (#2571)
* fix(#2570): parse leading date from last_activity so stale_activity fires with a description suffix

templates/state.md prescribes `Last activity: [YYYY-MM-DD] — [What happened]`,
and gsd-core's own STATE.md mirrors that suffix into frontmatter. Date.parse on
the whole string returned NaN, and because staleActivity treats null as "not
stale" (fails open), the only idle/staleness detector never fired on any project
whose last_activity kept its description.

parseActivityTimestamp now reads the leading ISO date/time token when a
whole-string parse fails, validating the calendar date (ADR-227: reject an
impossible date rather than let Date.parse roll it forward) and preferring the
whole-string parse when it succeeds so a trailing zone name is not dropped.

Composes with #3099 (LAST_ACTIVITY_UNPARSEABLE diagnostic), which merged to next
after this branch: both key off parseActivityTimestamp === null, so a value whose
leading date now parses takes the stale path and does NOT emit the diagnostic. A
regression test in tests/smart-entry.unit.test.cjs asserts exactly that (stale
true, emission count 0), guarding against two staleness signals on one field.

Rebased onto next (flattened): resolved the add/add test conflict by keeping both
the #2570 and #3099 describe blocks. Tests: unit + property, 80 pass.

* fix(#2570): fail open when a named zone can't be reconstructed from the token (#2571 B1)

The 2026-08-08 flatten dropped the zone handling earlier rounds built, so the
fallback path -- reached only when a description suffix makes the whole-string
parse fail, the #2570 case -- reconstructed `${date}${time}` WITHOUT any named
zone. ISO_LEADING_RE's offset group captures only Z / +-HH:MM, so " GMT"/" EST"
land in the un-captured suffix; Date.parse then read the reconstruction as LOCAL
time, shifting the instant by the host's UTC offset -- a wrong, host-dependent
value the diff's own comment warned against but guarded only on the other branch.

Fix (the simpler of the two offered in review): when the remainder after the
matched token begins with a letter (a named zone we cannot preserve), return
null -- fail open to not-stale, matching the base's honest behaviour and
ADR-227's "never propagate a wrong instant". The #2570 template suffix
(" -- description") starts with a separator, so it still reconstructs and reads
stale as intended.

Tests (both fail-first, verified RED on the pre-fix head):
- smart-entry.unit: a named-zone + description suffix (54 days old) enters the
  fallback and must read not-stale, not a still-old local instant. Host-
  independent by construction.
- smart-entry.property (f): named-zone + suffix over 1-week..1-year ages and 8
  zones stays total and fails open.

Discloses the removal M2 flagged: TRAILING_ZONE_RE / UTC_ZONE_NAMES /
timeCarriesOffset were dropped by the flatten; this restores the SAFETY (no
wrong instant) via the simpler null contract rather than the allowlist.

* fix(#2570): narrow the stale_activity fallback guard to a zone-designator shape

The round-9 fail-open guard `/^\s*[A-Za-z]/` treated any letter-led remainder as
an unpreservable named zone, so a leading real date followed by a bare
space/tab/colon and an ordinary description (a hand-edited STATE.md that omits the
template em dash) returned null and re-opened #2570 for exactly those shapes.

Narrow the guard to ZONE_DESIGNATOR_RE -- a standalone short all-caps run -- and
consult it ONLY when the leading token captured a time-of-day: a zone qualifies a
clock time, so a bare date carries no zone hazard and always reconstructs to its
UTC midnight. A plain description (including one that opens with a tech acronym
like "CI green") reconstructs; a real named zone on a timed value (GMT/EST/...)
still fails open (ADR-227: never propagate a wrong, host-dependent instant).

Widen the property generator to the non-em-dash separators (space/tab/colon), the
arm that structurally could not reach the fallback before, and add unit cases for
whitespace/tab/colon-separated and bare-date+acronym descriptions. All fail-first
on the prior guard; green across UTC/LA/Tokyo/Kiritimati.

6950ae3679 test(#2269): repo-wide regression guard for query commit --files scoping (#2290)
* test(#2269): repo-wide regression guard for query commit --files scoping

regression protection that fix does not carry: a repo-wide scan, edge-case
pins, property tests, and a behavioral test.

- Repo-wide scan across all five directories that carry live invocations
  (gsd-core/workflows, gsd-core/references, agents, commands, skills), so a
  future unscoped `commit` / `query commit` site fails CI wherever it lands.
  Backslash-continued lines are joined first, and a quote-parity walk
  distinguishes a real `--files` flag from one mentioned inside the quoted
  commit message.
- Edge-case pins for the shapes the live content does not exercise: the
  `query`-less spelling, a flag preceding the command (`--cwd`), a prose
  mid-sentence mention, and a `commit_docs` JSON-key false positive.
- Three `fast-check` properties over the quote-parity logic, following the
  tests/adr-parser.property.test.cjs precedent.
- A behavioral test that stands up a real temp git repo, leaves an unstaged
  `.planning/` stray plus an unrelated staged file, runs the real
  `gsd-tools commit --files`, and asserts via git status/diff that only the
  intended artifact landed. The scope is derived from secure-phase.md's own
  commit line, so reverting that line's `--files` fails this test too.

Census over the five roots at this base: 87 invocations, 0 unscoped.

* test(#2269): scan mid-prose argument-bearing invocations too

The repo-wide guard's INVOCATION_RE is line-start-anchored, which keeps
bare backtick mentions out of scope but also blinded the scan to fully
argument-bearing `query commit` invocations embedded mid-sentence in
instructional prose. Three such live invocations sit inside the scan's
own roots today (new-milestone.md, new-project.md, plan-phase.md) — all
scoped, but never entering the candidate set, so trimming their
`--files` clause would reintroduce #2269 behind a green suite.

Add a second tier: MIDLINE_INVOCATION_RE matches the invocation token
anywhere a quoted commit message follows (`commit "` — the executable
shape a bare mention never carries), and invocationCandidates() extracts
the backtick-bounded invocation substring so hasScopedFiles's
quote-parity walk is not skewed by surrounding prose quotes.

Census after widening: 87 anchored + 3 mid-line = 90 invocations,
0 unscoped; the mid-line tier picks up exactly the three cited sites
and nothing else across all five scan roots.

* test(#2269): align the --files value predicate with the runtime's flag filter

The scan's --files value test was /--files\s+\S/, which scores
`--files --amend` as scoped because `-` is \S. routeCommit disagrees:

    args.slice(filesIndex + 1).filter(a => !a.startsWith('--'))

drops every `--`-prefixed token, so `--files --amend` yields files=[] and
lands on the same unscoped default branch as a trailing bare `--files` —
#2269 verbatim. Two live sites sit one token-deletion from the shape:
gsd-core/references/git-planning-commit.md and
gsd-core/workflows/execute-plan.md both run
`... commit "" --files .planning/codebase/*.md --amend`.

The predicate now mirrors the runtime's own rule. Single-dash tokens stay
values, because the runtime filters on '--', not '-'.

Pinned: `--files --amend` and `--files --no-verify` as unscoped, plus the
two live `--files <glob> --amend` shapes and `--files -weird-name.md` as
scoped negative controls, so the fix cannot over-correct into "any
--files near a flag is unscoped" with nothing failing.

Also tightens the fast-check path generator, which is not cosmetic. It
excluded only ["\s], so it could draw a `--`-prefixed token and assert it
scoped: measured 26 hits in 200,000 draws (~1 in 7,700), i.e. ~1 CI run
in 77 at the default 100 runs would have failed as a mystery flake once
this fix landed. The complement is now its own property, and it fails
against the pre-fix predicate (counterexample ["","--#"]).

The behavioral test's --files presence check moves to the same predicate,
and its two failure modes are now separate messages: a genuinely missing
--files (the #2269 regression) versus an unquoted value that only breaks
this test's own scope derivation.

* test(#2269): score each invocation on a line separately, not the whole line

invocationCandidates returned [line] for any line-start match, so scoring
was satisfied by one --files anywhere on the line and a later scoped
invocation vouched for an earlier unscoped one:

    gsd_run query commit "a" && gsd_run query commit "b" --files x.md
    gsd_run query commit "a" ;  gsd-tools query phase-list --files y.md

Same "one hit satisfies the whole candidate" class as the --files value
bug in the previous commit. No live line has the shape today, so this is
pinned rather than left to be rediscovered.

A line-start invocation is now split at shell command separators before
scoring. The separator must be followed by a binary token, so a binary
inside a command substitution — `commit "$(gsd-tools query x)" --files
a.md` — is not treated as a second invocation; that negative control is
asserted, since the obvious "split at every binary token" implementation
turns it into a false offender.

Census on the current tree is unchanged: 89 anchored + 3 mid-line = 92
invocations, 0 unscoped, and the split produces zero extra segments on
live content.

* test(#2269): drop the unnecessary file-level allow-test-rule exemption

no-source-grep only fires on a readFileSync whose path expression carries
BOTH a .cjs/.js/.ts extension and a quoted bin|lib|gsd-core|src literal
(looksLikeSourcePath, eslint-rules/no-source-grep.cjs). This scanner reads
.md only, so the rule never triggered and the exemption bought nothing.

It was not inert, though: the escape is file-level — getAllComments() sees
the header and the rule returns {} for the whole file — so it silently
disabled no-source-grep for the pre-existing #2112/#2523 tests here and
for anything added later.

Verified by removing it and running eslint on the file: clean.

* test(#2269): mirror routeCommit by tokenizing, not by scanning line text

The scan's predicate searched the whole line for `--files` with double-quote
parity, while the runtime does an exact-token argv lookup scoped to a single
command. Those semantics disagreed, and the disagreement was exploitable in
both directions:

  guard=true  runtime=false | ... commit "docs: update ROADMAP.md" && echo done --files unused.md
  guard=true  runtime=false | ... commit 'docs: explain --files usage'
  guard=false runtime=true  | ... commit 'prints a " sometimes' --files .planning/PLAN.md

The first is #2269 verbatim: `--files` is echo's argument and never reaches
gsd-tools argv, so cmdCommit takes the blanket-`.planning/` default while the
guard stays silent. Injecting that line into secure-phase.md produced 0
offenders.

Each earlier round fixed one of these by widening the approximation, which
only moved the disagreement. So stop approximating: tokenize the line the way
a shell would — honouring BOTH quote characters, backslash escapes and unquoted
control operators — then run routeCommit's own predicate over the tokens.
Two previously hand-encoded special cases now fall out for free: `--files=x`
is unscoped (indexOf needs the exact token) and `--files -weird.md` is scoped
(the runtime filters on '--', not '-').

Operators are marked structurally rather than re-identified by comparing a
token's text against an operator set, because `commit '|' --files a.md`
produces a token whose VALUE is `|` and which is ordinary message text.

The property tests are part of this commit, not a follow-up: all three built
their line from a hardcoded double-quoted template, so no number of runs could
generate the single-quoted shape. They pinned one quoting dialect while reading
as though they pinned the predicate, which is what let the above through. The
delimiter is now drawn, and a fourth property asserts directly against a
re-implementation of routeCommit's own predicate.

Also removes a second copy of the old heuristic from the behavioral test, and
widens the mid-prose tier to `'` — it keyed on `commit "` only, so a
single-quoted mid-prose invocation was invisible to the scan entirely.

* test(#2269): scan docs/, which carries live invocations the claim excluded

The comment asserted the five roots were "every directory that carries live
invocations". That was false against the current tree, not hypothetically:
docs/zh-CN/references/ carries 7 live `query commit` invocations — the Chinese
mirrors of three gsd-core/references/ files that ARE scanned.

They are all scoped today, which is exactly why this needed its own assertion:
adding or dropping the root does not move the offender count, so the coverage
loss was silent in both directions. The scan now records which roots actually
contributed invocations and asserts docs/ is among them. Stated as a reach
property rather than a census figure, since a hardcoded count is the drift this
file has already been bitten by.

The locales are the right place to care about: ja-JP/ko-KR/pt-BR have no
references/ subtree at all, so the translations already drift per-locale — the
condition under which an unscoped example is reintroduced in one copy
unnoticed. New files under an existing root were always picked up by the
recursive walk; the gap was only ever at the root level.

* test(#2269): don't flag invocations inside HTML comments; drop a stale census

Two smaller findings from the same review.

The scan treated any `gsd_run … commit "` occurrence as executable, so an HTML
comment documenting the historical defect was reported as an offender:

  <!-- WRONG: gsd_run query commit "docs: message" (missing --files!) -->

Nothing in the scanned roots trips this today, but it made the guard hostile to
documenting the very bug it protects against — a plausible thing to add
precisely BECAUSE this issue exists. Comment spans are now stripped before
scanning, preserving newlines so a multi-line comment cannot fuse the text on
either side of it into one logical line. The strip lives beside the other scan
primitives rather than inside the test, so the assertion and the scan cannot
drift apart.

And the comment claiming "the total match count stays at 86" was stale (89).
No assertion read it. Rather than correct the figure, state the invariant it
was standing in for — dropping `.*` swaps onboard.md out of coverage WITHOUT
changing the offender count, since that site is scoped either way. The number
had already drifted three times; the property will not.

* test(#2269): consume comments, single-&, and redirections before scoring argv

Round-10 Major (davesienkowski): tokenize modelled &&/||/;/| and nothing
else, so `--files >/dev/null 2>&1`, `--files > out.md`, `# --files`, and
`& echo --files` all scored as scoped while routeCommit sees files=[] and
takes the blanket-.planning/ default. The live tail in
execute-phase-requirement-revert.md is one token-deletion from the silent
false negative.

The tokenizer now ends the command at a word-start unquoted `#`, treats a
single `&` as a control operator, and consumes redirections (with glued
IO numbers, `2>&1` included) as redir-marked tokens that hasScopedFiles
excludes from argv. Quoted and mid-word `#` stay literal — ship.md's
`PR #${PR_NUMBER}` message is pinned scoped. `$VAR` tokens deliberately
stay values: statically undecidable, and the three original #2269 fix
sites all pass `--files "${PHASE_DIR}/…"`.

* test(#2269): a foreign command's `commit` no longer reads as a gsd offender

Round-10 Minor (davesienkowski): segmentInvocations' no-hit fallback
returned the whole line, so `gsd_run query state && git commit -m "x"`
and `gsd_run query state | grep commit` — matched by the anchor's
deliberately loose `.*` — were scored as unscoped gsd commits and
false-flagged with the wrong failure message.

The fallback now applies only to a segment that actually carries the gsd
binary followed by a commit token (env-prefixed or wrapped invocations,
where dropping the line would be silent coverage loss); a line whose
`commit` belongs to another command contributes no candidates.

* test(#2269): drop the commands/ exemption from the per-root reach assertion

Round-10 Nit (davesienkowski): the exemption documented a gap that no
longer exists — commands/gsd/review-backlog.md contributes a candidate,
so commands/ is held to the same dead-weight test as every other root.

* test(#2269): put the tokenizer's escape branches inside the tested domain

Round-10 Minor 1 (trek-e): both backslash-escape branches in tokenize
were unreachable by any assertion — every generator stripped every
backslash, and no hand-pinned case carried one.

Double-quoted property messages may now contain `"` and `\`: embedFor
escapes them into the LINE while the property keeps the raw string as
the argv the shell would deliver, so the escape branch sits inside the
differential oracle's domain. Single-quoted messages still exclude
backslashes — the shell has no escape inside '…', so there is no escaped
spelling to generate. Four hand-pinned cases cover both branches in both
directions (escaped quote before a real --files, escaped quote hiding a
message-internal --files, escaped space in the message, escaped space in
the value).

* test(#2269): normalize path separators in the scan's diagnostic strings

Round-10 Minor 2 (trek-e): scanned/offenders entries were built from raw
readdirSync (recursive) names, so a failure message on Windows would
render backslashed paths, against the repo's normalize-unconditionally
convention. Join with the raw entry; report with the normalized one.

* test(#2269): pin the unquoted escape branch in the unscoped direction too

Claim-audit catch on the round's own response draft: the unquoted
backslash-escape branch was pinned only in the scoped direction, and the
unquoted property generator strips backslashes, so the unscoped
direction was outside every assertion. One pin closes it.

* test(#2269): decide an invocation by its command shape, not by its markup

Both scan tiers answered "is this text executable" with a syntactic proxy —
one anchored the command at line start, the other required a quoted commit
message — and both were wrong, in opposite directions. The anchor flagged a
fenced block that deliberately SHOWS the unscoped form. The quoted-message
tier could not see an unquoted invocation at all: `gsd_run query commit
fixup` reaches the identical cmdCommit, entered no candidate set, and
trimming its --files clause reintroduced #2269 with nothing to fail.

Markdown context was the obvious replacement and is refused, on measurement.
Keying on fences means parsing them — fence character, opening run length,
nesting, tilde fences, four-space indented blocks, unclosed markers — and
every bug in that parser is a silent false negative. I built that version
first and it lost four executable shapes before I stopped: `cd "$ROOT" &&
gsd_run query commit …`, `if …; then gsd_run …; fi`, four-space indented
blocks, and a four-backtick fence containing three-backtick runs. Each loss
was invisible; the census stayed at 99.

So the discriminator is the command shape:

    <binary> [ query | -flag [value] ]* <commit-token> <at least one arg>

The middle clause separates a command from a SENTENCE containing the same two
words — `Update STATE.md using gsd-tools.cjs query (or legacy gsd-tools)
commit mutations:` fails it at `(or`, with no markup parsed. The trailing
clause separates an invocation from a mention. Each line is scanned whole and
its inline code spans are scanned too, unioned: the whole-line pass reaches
every executable shape regardless of markup, and the span pass reaches the one
case it cannot, where a backtick glues to the binary token. The union is
additive, so a mis-parsed span can only add a visible false positive, never
hide an invocation.

This closes the unquoted case in BOTH the code-span and bare-prose forms, so
no part of it is left declined. Named residual, pinned as a test rather than
left to be discovered: an undelimited prose mention running straight into its
sentence (`see gsd_run query commit for the scoping rules`) is flagged, because
nothing distinguishes it from an invocation with arguments without guessing at
English. Bounded and measured — the roots carry 93 bare-prose mentions of the
binary and 0 with a commit token, the repo's convention is to backtick a
command reference, and the failure is a visible red.

Two things fell out. An interpreter prefix (`node gsd-tools.cjs commit …`,
live in docs/CLI-TOOLS.md) was invisible to both old tiers and is now in
scope; that pulled in the CLI usage synopses, so a bracketed optional FLAG now
marks synopsis notation — the discrimination is the bracketed flag, never
"contains a bracket", since 24 live invocations carry brackets inside their
quoted message (one as its --files value) and none brackets a flag.

tokenize and hasScopedFiles are untouched — byte-identical. Only the question
"is this text an invocation at all" changed. Census re-derived with the file's
own primitives: 99 candidates across 62 files, 0 unscoped, workflows 67 /
references 11 / agents 12 / commands 1 / skills 1 / docs 7 — identical to the
previous tier logic. Against the pre-fix tree (200daa456^) it still flags
exactly the 3 sites #2269 was filed about.

* test(#2269): let a wrong-example declare itself, in comment position only

A block showing the unscoped form on purpose scored as an offender. That is a
false positive against content correct as written, and the worst kind: the fix
a contributor reaches for is to mangle a teaching example until the linter
stops complaining. The HTML-comment escape only covered examples written as
comments.

Exempting fenced blocks was the prescribed remedy and is refused on
measurement: 96 of the 99 live invocations sit inside fences. Against the
pre-fix tree (200daa456^) the scan flags exactly the 3 sites #2269 was filed
about, and 0 with fences exempted. That does not narrow the guard, it disables
it — and no property of the surrounding markup can stand in for the author's
intent anyway, which is the general form of the same point.

So intent is declared: `# gsd-scan-ignore: <reason>` exempts the line, and a
reason is required because a bare token is not a declaration. Undeclared, the
identical line stays an offender — it is byte-for-byte what a real regression
looks like.

The marker is honoured ONLY in comment position, via the same unquoted-`#`
rule tokenize() already applies, so the two cannot disagree about where the
command ends. Matching the token anywhere on the line would let the commit
MESSAGE carry it — `commit "docs: explain gsd-scan-ignore: semantics"` — and
silently exempt a real offender. A guard that can be talked out of firing by
its own documentation is strictly worse than the false positive the marker
exists to fix, so both directions are pinned.

The marker is a new convention here and I would rather be redirected than
assume: happy to rename it, key it to an HTML comment, or drop it for whatever
shape you prefer.

* test(#2269): pin the escaped-backtick case in both directions

The span pass skips a backslash-escaped backtick, because an escaped backtick
is literal text and pairing it invents a code span the rendered document does
not have — the invented span then reads as an unscoped invocation, a false
offender against prose that merely displays a backtick.

That guard had no test: reverting it broke nothing, and a property with no
test is one the next edit removes for free. Pinned in both directions, so the
assertion covers the escape rather than the absence of span handling.

* test(#2269): close a bypass in the ignore marker's comment-position test

The marker's comment-position check keyed on "preceded by whitespace", which
is not the rule the shell applies and not the rule tokenize() applies. In
`commit docs:\ # gsd-scan-ignore: reason` the backslash escapes the space, so
the shell keeps `docs: #` as ONE word: the `#` is literal, the command runs,
and it runs UNSCOPED. The raw-text check saw a comment and exempted the line.

That is the guard being disarmed by text the author controls, which is worse
than the false positive the marker was added to fix — a guard that can be
talked out of firing is not a guard. Found by an adversarial audit of this
round's own claims, not by the tests, which is why both halves below are now
pinned.

Two independent conditions, deliberately:

- commentPortion tracks WORD START the way tokenize does, rather than looking
  at the preceding character. That closes the escaped-separator case directly.
- A marker that survives tokenization as an ARGUMENT disqualifies the line
  outright. tokenize() drops everything from a real comment onward, so a
  genuine declaration leaves no token carrying the marker; anything that does
  reached argv, which means the runtime executed it.

The second is what makes the closure structural rather than a matter of
getting commentPortion's edges exactly right — and it has edges. A
REDIRECTION swallows `#` and its text into a redir token, so the shell passes
it to the redirect target and never treats it as a comment, while raw-text
reading still sees one. Pinned as its own case, since it is the shape only the
cross-check separates.

Reverting either half fails the marker test independently.

* test(#2269): require a tracking reference on every scan-ignore declaration

The gsd-scan-ignore: marker accepted any non-space reason text, giving the
exemption no expiry and no ledger — the permanent-allow-test-rule shape
RULESET.TESTS.delete-bad-tests names. ADR-456 already settled this for the
sibling allow-test-rule: convention, so the marker now requires the same
#NNN issue reference (or an https:// URL).

scripts/lint-allow-test-rule-refs.cjs walks tests/ only and keys on the
ESLint comment form, so it cannot see a marker living in a .md file. Rather
than teach a second token to a script whose whole contract is that form,
the scan enforces the rule over its own roots — it already runs in CI on
every shard.

An attempted declaration that carries no reference is reported AS one,
asserted before the offender list. It is also an offender (it does not
exempt), and letting the generic assertion win would tell an author who had
already explained the line that their commit is unscoped — sending them to
re-read a flag that was never the problem.

Live declarations in the six scan roots: 0, so nothing is grandfathered.

* test(#2269): name every remedy in the failure, and document the convention

The offender assertion named only --files, but the guard has three distinct
causes and only one of them is the bug. An ordinary English sentence that
runs `gsd_run query commit` straight into its prose is flagged — by design,
since nothing separates it from an invocation with arguments without
guessing at English — and a contributor told only that their commit is
unscoped will mangle the sentence until the guard shuts up. That is exactly
the outcome the declaration marker was invented to prevent.

The message now names all three remedies (scope it / backtick the mention /
declare the wrong-example) and points at CONTRIBUTING.md. This is the
standard the repo already states one section over for its sibling gate:
"The failure output names its own remedy".

The help text is hoisted out of the assertion so it can be pinned. A failure
message is unreachable on the passing path, so nothing would have noticed a
remedy being edited back out of it.

The marker lives in .md files across six roots, so documenting it in this
test's comments reaches nobody who hits it. CONTRIBUTING.md now carries the
convention beside the sibling allow-test-rule: exception, and its example is
a live instance of itself — removing the declaration makes the example an
offender (verified).

CONTRIBUTING.md is outside changeset lint's USER_FACING_PREFIXES, so the
diff still returns ok_no_user_facing_changes (verified, not assumed).

* test(#2269): decide synopsis notation by the first argument, not by the line

SYNOPSIS_TOKEN_RE disqualified the whole segment, so notation anywhere on a
line silently disqualified a real invocation. Wrong in both directions, and
both reachable:

  See [--files](#anchor) then run gsd_run query commit "docs: x"
      ^ an ordinary markdown link, and docs/ is a scan root

  gsd_run query commit "docs: x" [--amend]
                                 ^ a real, executable, unscoped call

Both scored 0 candidates. The second is the dangerous one: `[--amend]` is a
literal word to the shell, so the line runs, reaches routeCommit with
files=[], and sweeps the index — #2269 verbatim, with the guard silent on
exactly the defect it exists to catch.

Positionally there is no ambiguity. A synopsis documents a call it does not
make, so its first argument is a placeholder; a real call's first argument
is its commit message. The test moved to that position.

`<message>` reaches the predicate as a REDIRECTION — `<` is a redirection
character, so tokenize() reads it the way the shell would. That mangling is
the identifying feature rather than an obstacle, and keying on it avoids the
false negative a raw-text match would have introduced: inside a quoted
message `<Widget>` is ordinary text, one token, no redirection. Pinned.

All five live synopsis lines (docs/CLI-TOOLS.md and its four localized
mirrors) remain excluded — verified by running the primitives over each.
Reversion control: restoring the whole-line rule fails 'usage-synopsis
notation documents the CLI and is not a call to it', and only that test.

* test(#2269): reach invocations behind a subshell, a shell -c, and an escaped backtick

Three shapes that were executable and invisible.

(1) `(gsd_run query commit "docs: x")`. Subshell grouping changes no argv,
so `(` was never a tokenizer metacharacter — which left `(gsd_run` as one
token the binary anchor could not match. The anchor now strips a leading
run of `(`.

Backticks are deliberately NOT stripped with it, and the first attempt that
did strip them is why this is stated rather than assumed: to a shell a
backtick is never part of a binary name, so a backticked invocation belongs
to the code-span pass, which extracts the command from inside the
delimiters. Stripping them in the anchor made the whole-line pass find the
same invocation a second time, absorbing the surrounding sentence as
arguments — the census went 99 -> 102 with no verdict changing. Measured,
reverted, and pinned as a comment so the next reader does not re-try it.

(2) `bash -c "gsd_run query commit fixup"`. A shell invoked with -c runs its
next argument AS a command, so the invocation sits inside a quoted token
that no markup rule can reach. The recursion is keyed on the INVOKER, never
on "a quoted token that parses as a command" — the wider rule would flag a
commit MESSAGE that quotes an invocation, a false positive against ordinary
documentation. Pinned in both directions.

(3) codeSpans skipped an entire backtick run on an odd backslash prefix,
which is stricter than the rule its own comment states: an escaped backtick
consumes exactly ONE, and the rest of the run is still a delimiter. Fixed,
and pinned with a case that now yields a span where it previously yielded
none. The reviewer's own example stays at zero spans — correctly, because a
1-run opener does not pair with a 2-run closer — and that is pinned too, so
the distinction is not re-litigated as a regression.

Census re-derived at this head over the six roots with the file's own
primitives: 99 candidates across 65 files, 0 unscoped (workflows 67 /
references 11 / agents 12 / commands 1 / skills 1 / docs 7) — identical to
the previous head, so the widening is coverage-neutral by measurement.

Reversion controls: 3/3 fire against a named test.

* test(#2269): assert scan coverage over the repo, not over each root

The per-root reach assertion was wrong in both directions at once.

Too strong: commands/ contributes exactly one invocation and skills/ one, so
an unrelated PR retiring review-backlog or re-syncing the Chinese mirrors
turned this red with a failure that had nothing to do with #2269. A root is
now allowed to legitimately go to zero.

Too weak, and this is the part worth having: it could only ever re-confirm
the roots already listed. Removing a root from scanRoots was SILENT under it
— the assertion iterates the roots that remain — and a directory that
ACQUIRES invocations without being a root was invisible to it. That is the
gap this file has actually been bitten by twice: agents/ in one round,
docs/zh-CN/ in the next, each found by a reviewer rather than by the suite.

Replaced with the property those checks were approximating: over every
tracked .md in the repo, a file carrying a live invocation must be covered
by a scan root. Dropping any root now fails (verified for docs/ and
agents/), and so does a new directory acquiring one.

This also closes the residual @davesienkowski raised in round 10 —
completeness was asserted only for docs/, never as a general property — and
the one I answered then by saying a git ls-files walk inside the test was
something I would rather propose explicitly than smuggle in. Proposing it:
git ls-files is already used against the repo by seven test files here, one
of which fails closed on a non-zero exit exactly as this does. An
unenumerable file list is an UNKNOWN coverage set, not an empty one.

Measured: 1523 tracked .md, 99 candidates inside the roots, and exactly one
candidate-bearing file outside them — CHANGELOG.md, whose invocation is
scoped. It is excluded with its reason rather than silently: it is
regenerated from .changeset/ fragments, so a marker added to it would not
survive the next release, and it records commands that shipped rather than
instructing anyone to run one.

Suite duration 6.5s -> 9.3s for the wider walk.

* test(#2269): put the recognition half inside the property domain

All four existing properties aim at hasScopedFiles — the half backed by a
runtime oracle, and the half that has been stable for rounds. Every defect
found since lives in the other half: whether a line is an invocation at all.
That asymmetry is the problem, because a miss there is a silent false
negative, where a miss in the scope predicate has an oracle watching it.

So the new properties generate the CONTEXT rather than the arguments. The
recognition rule is "an invocation is found by its command shape, whatever
markup surrounds it", and that is a claim about a domain a generator can
cover: subshells, interpreters, env prefixes, shell keywords, prompts, list
and blockquote markers, indentation, chaining, and `sh -c` wrapping. Each of
those was previously a hand-pinned example, several added only after a
reviewer found the gap.

It paid immediately. Three defects, none of which exists on today's tree:

- A markdown BLOCKQUOTE marker is the one markup form the tokenizer cannot
  ignore, because `>` is also a redirection: `> gsd_run query commit "docs:
  x"` reads as a redirection whose target is the binary. Found on the
  property's first run. 34 blockquoted lines in the six roots invoke this
  binary today; none carries a commit token yet.
- `> sh -c "gsd_run commit a"` — the blockquote strip fed only one of the
  three passes. The passes now apply to every VIEW of the line.
- `(sh -c "gsd_run commit a"` — the subshell strip was applied to the gsd
  binary test but not the shell-invoker test. One helper now, not two copies.

The last two are COMPOSITIONS of shapes that each pass alone, which is the
class hand-written examples are worst at and the specific reason this
finding was worth taking as stated rather than as more examples.

The wrapper axis is drawn only with an unquoted body: a -c payload is itself
quoted, so a quoted message inside it needs a nested-quoting domain, and a
wrong generator domain is this file's most repeated own-goal (two
seed-dependent reds). Constraining the body is what makes the axis safe.

Verified rather than claimed:
- 20,000 generated cases, 0 counterexamples; suite green on three
  independent seeds.
- Reverting each of the four recognition fixes in isolation is now caught by
  the property, not only by the hand-pinned case. Before the wrapper axis it
  caught 2 of 4 — measured, which is why the axis was added.
- Census unchanged: 99 candidates / 65 files / 0 unscoped, same per-root
  split, over 1523 tracked .md.
- Discrimination against the pre-fix tree (200daa456^): 97 candidates,
  exactly 3 offenders — next.md, secure-phase.md, validate-phase.md.

* test(#2269): cover the scan's own assembly, found by three silent controls

Running a reversion control over every fix in this round left three silent,
and all three were real gaps rather than control artefacts.

Two were the same shape: the WIRING between the walkers and the scan's
result lists was covered by nothing. Every test drove documentCandidates /
documentUntrackedDeclarations directly, so replacing the untracked-
declaration source with an empty list — and emptying the uncovered-file
list — both left the suite green. The real corpus cannot catch either: it is
clean, so those assertions can only ever observe an empty result. That is
the structural reason a synthetic corpus is needed and not a nicety.

Factored the per-document classification into scanDocument() and the
uncovered-file walk into uncoveredFiles(), both beside the other primitives
for the reason already stated there — an assertion must not pass against a
private copy while the scan does something else — and drove each with a
synthetic input. Both controls now fire.

The third was worse, because it looked like a check and was not one:
`assert.match(OFFENDER_HELP, /backtick/i)` is satisfied by the word
"backticked" in the clause explaining why a backticked mention is skipped,
so deleting the backtick REMEDY left the assertion green. Matched on the
instruction instead.

Reversion-control matrix over the whole round: 12 controls, 12 fire against
a named test. Suite 29/29, 0 skipped.

* test(#2269): keep this file's own prose out of the exemption lint

Self-found by running scripts/lint-allow-test-rule-refs.cjs, which the round
had a specific reason to run: the lint extracts everything after the token
on a line and requires a #NNN or URL in it, so the comment explaining that
requirement was itself read as a new untracked exemption --

  tests/commit-files-pathspec.test.cjs :: ` reason, and scripts/...

-- and lint-tests would have gone red on a prose line. Reworded so no line
carries the bare token; the lint now reports no novel offenders.

Fitting rather than embarrassing: this is the exact class Major 1 is about,
and the lint caught it on the file arguing for the same discipline.

* test(#2269): fix four defects an adversarial review of this round found

Ran a cross-AI adversarial review over the round's own claims before pushing.
It confirmed 10 of 12 and returned four MISSED findings; all four were real.

1. `shellDashCPayloads` searched the whole segment for a shell name, so
   `echo bash -c "gsd_run query commit fixup"` became a candidate. echo
   PRINTS the string; it does not run it. The invoker must be at the command
   position — only an env assignment, a shell keyword, or a list/prompt
   marker may precede it. `echo` and `printf` are commands and no longer
   qualify; `then` / `$` / `FOO=1` / a subshell still do. Both directions
   pinned.

2. SHELL_INVOKER_RE was a guess at four spellings. `ash`, `csh`, `tcsh`,
   `fish` and `yash` all take -c and all run what follows, and missing them
   is a silent false negative in the one function whose job is reaching a
   command the tokenizer cannot see. All nine spellings pinned.

3. A marker with NO reason at all fell through to the generic offender
   diagnosis, because the loose detector required `\S` after the colon. That
   is the likeliest way to get the marker wrong, so it is the case that most
   needs the specific message. The reason is now EXTRACTED rather than
   matched in one shot, so an empty reason is still an ATTEMPT.

4. The predicate now MIRRORS scripts/lint-allow-test-rule-refs' own
   ISSUE_REF_RE (`/#\d+|https?:\/\//`) instead of approximating it. The
   review refuted my claim of an HTTPS-only rule: the regex accepted
   `http://` and the prose describing it did not. The regex was right and
   the sentence was wrong — so the sentence is gone and the constant is
   cited. A contributor who satisfies one marker and not the other would
   otherwise have been handed two conventions wearing one name.

Also a generator-domain correction, not a narrowing: `node bash -c "..."`
is not an executable line — node takes a script path and `bash` is not one —
so the interpreter context is no longer drawn with a shell wrapper. Leaving
it in had the property demanding recognition of a non-command.

The review's other refutation is NOT actioned, and deliberately: it measured
9 failures, every one a fixture hook dying on `spawnSync /bin/sh EPERM`
inside its own sandbox, with the scanner and property tests passing there.
That is the documented reviewer-sandbox artefact class, not a defect in the
claims. Locally the suite is 29/29, 0 skipped, on three independent seeds.

Census re-derived after the rework: unchanged at 99 candidates / 65 files /
0 unscoped, same per-root split, 1523 tracked .md walked.

* test(#2269): pin the invoker set exactly, and let command modifiers through

Two follow-ons from the review's invoker findings, both verified rather than
reasoned about.

The invoker regex was hand-written and I did not trust it, so I enumerated
it instead of sampling: over every <=2-letter prefix it admits exactly
{sh, ash, bash, csh, dash, fish, ksh, tcsh, yash, zsh} and nothing else.
`ssh` is the near-miss that mattered — admitting it would treat a REMOTE
command as a local shell running the payload — and it is correctly rejected.
Pinned along with cash / josh / publish / wish / rsh.

The mirror of that gap is the prefix side: `time bash -c "..."` really does
run the payload, and the command-position rule introduced one commit ago
stopped at `time`. Command modifiers that pass straight through (time, exec,
nohup, env, command) now skip like the shell keywords do.

Named residual rather than a half-fix: a modifier carrying its OWN flags
(`sudo -u alice bash -c ...`) still stops the search, because skipping
arbitrary flag/value pairs means modelling each modifier's option grammar.
No live instance in the six roots, and the failure direction is a missed
candidate.

Census unchanged: 99 / 65 files / 0 unscoped. Suite 29/29, 0 skipped.

* test(#2269): say http(s):// where the predicate accepts it

An audit of this round's own response comment caught that the fix for the
HTTPS-only overclaim went only into the test's internal comment. The three
strings a contributor actually READS — the offender help, the malformed-
declaration message, and CONTRIBUTING.md — still said `https://` while the
shared predicate is `/#\d+|https?:\/\//` and accepts `http://`.

So the implementation mirrored the sibling lint while the documented
convention stayed narrower than it: exactly the two-conventions-wearing-one-
name problem the mirroring was adopted to avoid, reintroduced in the half a
contributor sees. Both directions were already pinned as tests; only the
prose was wrong.

* test(#2269): reach inside command substitutions, whatever precedes them

`$(gsd_run query commit "docs: x")` scored ZERO candidates in both
directions. `$(` glues to the binary exactly as `(` does, leaving
`$(gsd_run` as one token no command-name test could match — the same
silent false negative the subshell opener produced, on the invocation
idiom the tree uses most.

The strip is widened rather than duplicated, so it covers the shell
invoker test too: one helper, per the rule already stated beside it.

WHAT PRECEDES THE OPENER IS NOT ENUMERATED, and that is the whole of
the design. Keying on an assignment prefix covers most of the live
substitution sites and misses the rest — measured with the file's own
binary predicate rather than a line regex, because two regexes gave two
different totals: 432 tokens whose last `$(` is followed by a real gsd
binary, of which 423 are plain assignments and 9 are not. Those 9 span
three distinct non-assignment prefixes, all live:

  for REVIEW_FLAG in $(gsd_run review-lane flags)              (x3)
  ${PLAN_PRE_HOOKS_JSON:-$(gsd_run loop render-hooks plan:pre)} (x3)
  `ROADMAP=$(gsd_run ...)  -- backtick-glued assignment          (x3)

Ordinary text (`pre$(...)`) and an indexed assignment (`A[0]=$(...)`)
glue just as hard. Every such enumeration is one idiom behind the shell,
and every miss is silent, so the rule is positional: strip to the LAST
substitution opener in the token. Whatever preceded it was, by
construction, not the command.

Arithmetic falls out of the same mechanism rather than a special case:
`$((x))` leaves a `(` in front of the name, which no binary carries, so
it is refused — mirroring the shell, which itself needs `$( (` spaced
before it reads a nested subshell there. Pinned as a zero-candidate
case, as is the array literal `arr=(...)`, which contains no `$(` at all.

Scan census re-derived with the file's own primitives: 99 candidates
across 65 files, 0 unscoped — workflows 67 / references 11 / agents 12 /
commands 1 / skills 1 / docs 7. Unchanged, so the widening is
coverage-neutral by measurement: no live `$( ... )` site carries a
commit token.

Discrimination re-run: a planted unscoped substitution in a scan root is
caught and named; its `--files` twin is not flagged.

* test(#2269): stop the -c pass skipping a substitution-captured invoker

Self-found by sweeping the defect class the round's finding names — a
command context glues to the binary token — across every command-name
test rather than only the one that was reported.

`shellDashCPayloads` treats any `VAR=` token as a skippable prefix, on
the reasoning that `FOO=1 bash -c "…"` prefixes the command. But
`V=$(bash -c "…")` IS the command: skipping it walks the invoker search
past the shell onto `-c`, which is not an invoker, so the payload is
never reached and an unscoped commit inside it stays invisible.

An assignment is now skippable only when it carries no substitution, and
the prefix pattern admits the indexed form (`A[0]=`) for the same reason
the strip above does. `FOO=1 bash -c "…"` and the full invoker matrix
are unchanged and still pass, which is what makes this a narrowing of
the skip rather than a removal of it.

No live instance in the six roots — the failure direction is a missed
candidate, which is the direction this file treats as the one it cannot
afford.

* test(#2269): quoting decides the opener, per character not per token

Found by an adversarial pass over this round's own claims, then fixed
again after that pass refuted the first fix.

THE DEFECT. `printf %s '$(gsd_run' query commit fixup` runs no gsd
command: the opener is single-quoted literal text. But tokenization
removes quotes, so the token's value is `$(gsd_run` and the strip read
it as a binary, fabricating an invocation out of a string argument.

THE FIRST FIX WAS WRONG, IN THE UNAFFORDABLE DIRECTION. Recording "did
this token consume a quote" and refusing the strip on it closes the case
above and opens a worse one: a quote need not cover the opener.
`echo "pre"$(gsd_run query commit fixup)` executes, and so does
`$(gsd_""run query commit fixup)`, and a token-wide flag silences the
guard on both. That trades a visible false positive for a silent miss,
which is the trade this file refuses everywhere else.

So the mask is PER CHARACTER: tokenize carries a '0'/'1' string parallel
to each token's value, marking characters that were quoted or
backslash-escaped, and the command-name helpers strip only an opener
whose own characters were bare. Both directions are pinned — the three
quoted-opener shapes score zero, the two mixed-quoting shapes score one.

This also closes the same shape for the subshell opener (`'(gsd_run'`),
which predates this round, and it retires BINARY_LEAD_MARKUP_RE: the
walk it replaced could not consult the mask, and a regex plus a mask
would have been two descriptions of one rule.

NAMED RESIDUAL, unchanged by this and out of scope. `printf %s 'gsd_run'
query commit fixup` still reads as an invocation, because no markup is
stripped there — the token's value simply IS the binary name. Closing it
needs quote provenance carried through the command-shape test, not just
the strip. The direction is a visible false positive with a declared
remedy, not a silent miss.

Scan census unchanged: 99 candidates / 65 files / 0 unscoped.

f0abdb1b89 fix(#2486): do not recommend or persist Claude-only worktree isolation on non-Claude runtimes (#2531)
* fix(#2486): runtime-branch the settings worktrees question + W020 health diagnostic

On non-Claude runtimes /gsd:settings offered "Yes (Recommended)" for
worktree isolation and persisted workflow.use_worktrees: true — the exact
value the execution workflows fail closed on (#1521 guards). Branch the
question on the same stamped config-get runtime read the guards use:
Claude keeps the unchanged question; non-Claude offers only
"No (Recommended)" / "Leave unchanged", never persists true, and warns
when the config carries an inherited explicit true. /gsd:health gains
W020, surfacing such a config with the guards' own predicate before
execution-time failure. Docs state the runtime-conditional default.

Fixes #2486

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

* fix(#2486): reassign the health worktrees check W020 -> W024 (verify.cts namespace collision)

The workflow-level check collided with the live W020 (git-worktree-list
health) emitted by cmdValidateHealth in src/verify.cts — invisible from
health.md's error_codes table, which stops at W019 and under-represents
the real namespace (W010-W017, W020-W023 all live). W024 verified free.
Adds a regression test pinning the chosen code against src/verify.cts so
a future assignment cannot silently collide, a table note naming the
namespace owner, and the changeset body reworded to house style.

* fix(#2486): pre-select the recommended repair in the broken-inheritance case

Review round 2: at settings.md:142 the pre-selection rule left "Leave
unchanged" as the default when the config carried an explicit
non-false use_worktrees — the exact broken state the adjacent notice
warns about, so accepting the default kept a config that fails closed
at execution time. "Leave unchanged" is now the default only when the
key is absent (nothing to repair); explicit false AND explicit
non-false both pre-select "No (Recommended)", aligning the default,
the label, and the notice.

Pinned by two source-contract assertions in the #2486 regression
block. Goldens (settings.md hash x19) + size baseline regenerated.

* fix(#2486): gate the worktrees question on dispatch.isolation, not the runtime name

Review round 2: #2584 Phase 3 replaced the runtime-name test with a
declared `dispatch.isolation` capability, invalidating this PR's
premise. cursor declares harness-worktree and codex/opencode/kimi/
kimi-code declare orchestrator-worktree, so a `RUNTIME != claude` gate
blocked a supported configuration on five runtimes and false-warned in
health.

- settings.md + health.md read `query dispatch-isolation` and branch on
  `ISOLATION = none`; the runtime-name read is gone from both, and the
  capability read needs no per-runtime stamping (it fail-closes unknown/
  undocumented internally)
- all "Claude Code-only primitive" prose rewritten, including the two
  gates the shell-syntax check missed (config-key list, JSON schema
  comment)
- W024 reconciled across health.md + CONFIGURATION.md + planning-config.md
  (docs still said W020, which collides with a verify.cts code)
- health.md error-codes table fixed: the namespace note no longer sits
  between rows orphaning I001
- the asymmetry note for the two workflows #2584 has not migrated
  (quick.md, diagnose-issues.md) is enforced by a set-equality test with
  a self-check table, so it cannot go stale in either direction

* docs(#2486): restore the Executor isolation section clobbered by #2661

`46ba02ac` (feat(#2630), the current next tip) reverted docs/CONFIGURATION.md
to a pre-#2584 state: it restored the old "Non-Claude note" wording on the
workflow.use_worktrees row and deleted the whole "Executor isolation per
runtime" section. The change is unrelated to that PR's phase-estimation
feature and looks like a stale-copy edit.

This PR's use_worktrees row links to #executor-isolation-per-runtime, so the
deletion leaves a dangling anchor. Restored byte-for-byte from a40ee8a5 (the
text #2584 Phase 3 originally shipped). No link/anchor checker exists in
scripts/ or tests/, so CI would not have caught the dead link.

The reverted row wording is outside this PR's scope and is still wrong on
next; reported upstream as #2668.

* fix(#2486): reword the W024 remediation so it names no bare gsd-tools call

The W024 warning told the user to run `gsd-tools query config-set`, a
command-position bare invocation that fails with "command not found" on a
shim-only install (#2751) — the diagnostic sent the user into a second,
more confusing error than the one it reported. The remediation now names
only `/gsd:settings` and the config key itself, both of which work on
every install layout, and the #2751 command-position gate goes green.

Fixes #2486

* fix(#2486): drop the Known-asymmetry note and its guard test — #2728 migrates both workflows

Review Major 2: once #2728 lands, the note describes a gap that no longer
exists and instructs maintainers not to do the thing that was just done —
with the set-equality guard test pinning the stale prose green. This PR now
depends on #2728 (declared in the PR body), so the note and its guard go.

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

* test(#2486): make the #2728 merge order enforceable instead of advisory

settings.md recommends and persists `workflow.use_worktrees: true` for every
runtime whose declared dispatch.isolation is not `none` — cursor
(harness-worktree) and codex/opencode/kimi/kimi-code (orchestrator-worktree).
quick.md and diagnose-issues.md consume that value at dispatch time and, while
they still gate on the runtime NAME, FATAL for all five. Merged first, this PR
reintroduces #2486's own shape for the exact runtimes it exists to help — on
the path it now labels "Recommended".

The dependency was stated only as prose in the PR body. A merge-order note is
not a gate: an automated batch merge never reads it. This adds the check that
makes the ordering structural — red while either sibling is still name-gated,
green the moment #2728 lands.

The predicate matches a RUNTIME-vs-"claude" comparison, not the legitimate
runtime-identity read, and accepts either the inline canonical
dispatch-isolation read or a reference to dispatch-isolation-gate.md, which is
the shape #2728 gives quick.md. Verified both directions against real sources:
red against the current workflows, green against #2728's.

This also closes W024's coverage window. W024 fires only when ISOLATION is
`none`, so it is structurally blind to these five runtimes — /gsd:health would
report healthy right up until quick.md FATALs. W024 cannot see the hazard, so
the hazard is prevented by making the unsafe ordering unmergeable rather than
by warning after the fact.

Separately, the W-code namespace-collision test now declares its source read
instead of passing lint silently: verify.cts emits its codes as inline string
literals across ~25 addIssue() calls and exports no enumerable registry, so
there is nothing to require() and assert against. The gap, and what it costs,
are stated in the test.

* docs(#2486): use the hyphen command form for /gsd-health in CONFIGURATION.md

docs/ is never passed through the install-time slash-form converters, so the
colon form names a command no runtime registers. Clears the sole
lint-docs-command-form violation attributable to this PR.

* fix(#2486): resolve isolation via new side-effect-free inspect-dispatch-isolation query; scope the settings change to isolation-none runtimes

Review round 4:

- B1: /gsd:health and /gsd:settings no longer call the recording
  dispatch-isolation query — on current next it persists the resolved
  decision to the executor-isolation sentinel as an unconditional #3045
  side effect, letting a read-only diagnostic hard-block executor
  dispatch for the sentinel's lifetime across sessions. Both surfaces now
  use inspect-dispatch-isolation, a new read-only verb sharing the exact
  resolution implementation (extracted resolveDispatchIsolationDecision)
  with zero writes. Behavioral tests pin: no sentinel write, per-runtime
  parity with the recording verb, recording knobs ignored, --json shape.

- B2: the #2728 merge-order interlock test is deleted — a repo test
  cannot sequence merges; it only made this PR unmergeable on its own
  schedule. The settings behavior change is scoped entirely to the
  ISOLATION=none branch, which needs nothing from #2728; the != none
  path is base behavior unchanged.

- M1: the W024-vs-verify.cts namespace test (an admitted source-grep) is
  deleted per RULESET.TESTS.delete-bad-tests, without a standing
  exemption; the namespace claim lives as guidance in health.md.

- M2: remaining allow-test-rule exemptions re-derived into documented
  categories (source-text-is-the-product, integration-test-input) with
  issue refs per ADR-456.

- Minor: settings.md's current-value read drops the stampable
  --default/fallback so key-absence stays distinguishable from an
  explicit false on non-Claude emits (the pre-selection rule depends on
  the tri-state); docs now present inspect-dispatch-isolation as the
  inspection command and name dispatch-isolation as the recording
  resolver.

* fix(#2486): put the install-marker rung in the canonical runtime resolver

Round-7 review (independent cross-AI pass over the whole PR).

BLOCKER — the gate did not fire in the default case. `resolveRuntime`
stopped at GSD_RUNTIME > config.runtime > 'claude', and
`config-new-project` writes NO `runtime` key — so on a real non-Claude
install every consumer believed it was on Claude: isolation reported
`harness-worktree`, /gsd:settings still offered "Yes (Recommended)" and
W024 stayed silent. That is #2486's own symptom, surviving the fix meant
to remove it. Verified end-to-end on a real `--qwen` install with a
runtime-neutral config and GSD_RUNTIME unset: pre-fix `harness-worktree`,
fixed `none`.

The rung lives in `resolveRuntime` (src/runtime-slash.cts), the ONE
canonical resolver, not in the isolation call site. A per-consumer fix
forks precedence: `inspect-dispatch-isolation` would answer `cursor` while
`dispatch-should-flatten` and `resolve-dispatch-type` still answered
`claude` for the same install. All three now agree. `readInstallRuntimeMarker`,
its cache and its test seams MOVED from model-resolver.cts to
runtime-slash.cts, with model-resolver re-exporting the seams — one marker
read and one cache, not two that drift.

Deliberately NOT `resolveActiveRuntime`/`loadConfig`: an intermediate
revision of this fix routed through `loadConfig`, which normalizes and
rewrites legacy keys back to disk. That gave `inspect-dispatch-isolation`
— the verb whose entire purpose is being side-effect-free — a write side
effect, which is the defect the verb exists to avoid. `resolveRuntime`
reads .planning/config.json directly. Re-verified: the inspect query
against a real install creates no `.gsd/`.

Tests, both of which were too weak in the first attempt and are now
fail-first proven:
- The W024 behavioral stub returned success-with-empty-output for an absent
  key. Real `config-get` EXITS NON-ZERO, and the `|| echo "true"` fallback
  only triggers on failure — so reintroducing the fallback would have passed.
  The stub now returns 1 for the absent case.
- The marker regression asserted on the exported helper, so reverting
  gsd-tools.cjs to a marker-blind resolver still passed. It now drives a real
  `--qwen` install through the shipped `inspect-dispatch-isolation` query.
  (GSD_TEST_MODE must be cleared for that child, or install.js no-ops while
  still exiting 0 — a green test over an install that wrote nothing.)
  Spawned through `installSpawnEnv()` so ambient GSD_HOME cannot leak in.

Also: the three PR-added `try/finally` test bodies converted to `t.after()`
per CONTRIBUTING; CONTEXT.md's `worktree create` UNCONSUMED claim corrected
(Phase 3 calls it in executor-isolation-dispatch.md); docs/CONFIGURATION.md
now states the current non-Claude `use_worktrees` default rather than
describing capability-scoped stamping that lands with #2652; resolver
precedence comments updated to name the marker rung.

Refs #2486
Refs #2668

* fix(#2486): split the marker rung out; make the use_worktrees doc row order-independent

Round-8 review. trek-e's Blocker was procedural — commit 10fba7b8 moved the
per-install .gsd-runtime marker rung into the canonical resolver, a large
blast-radius change that arrived undisclosed and unreviewed. They offered
two remedies; taking the second: SPLIT IT OUT.

src/runtime-slash.cts and src/model-resolver.cts are reverted to their next
state and the marker regression test is removed. What remains is what this
PR was filed for: the settings.md / health.md / gsd-tools.cjs isolation
query, W024, and the #2668 docs restoration.

COST, stated plainly rather than buried: without that rung this PR's gate
resolves 'claude' on a non-Claude install whose project config carries no
`runtime` key — which is every config config-new-project writes. On those
installs W024 stays quiet and /gsd-settings still offers Worktrees. The gate
is correct whenever the runtime IS resolvable (GSD_RUNTIME set, or an
explicit config.runtime). That is why `Fixes #2486` is already downgraded to
`Refs` — #2486 must not close until the residual lands. A KNOWN LIMITATION
comment at the resolver call site names #2395 so this does not read as an
oversight.

The rung itself belongs to #2395, which reports this exact defect and was
closed by #2446 — a PR that touched only bin/install.js and fixtures and
never runtime-slash.cts, so it persisted the identity into
~/.gsd/defaults.json, a tier resolveRuntime does not read. Evidence and a
reopen request are posted there. That same tier is #2566's B1.

DOCS — the reviewer flagged that this row and #2728's are order-dependent:
whichever merges second falsifies the other. Removed the dependency instead
of picking an order. The "Current default … until #2652" paragraph is now a
plain troubleshooting note, true before and after #2728 lands.

CONFLICT — one hunk in CONTEXT.md: next added the #2596 scope-conformance
interface to the same Worktree-Safety paragraph where this PR corrected the
`worktree create` UNCONSUMED claim. Resolved keeping both.

Verified: lint:ci green. Full suite clean apart from the pre-existing
#1160 installed-runtime capability surface. (emitted-attribution also failed
until the fork's stale next was fast-forwarded — it defaults to origin/next,
which was 131 commits behind; 175/175 against the current base.)

* fix(#2486): address round-9 review — distinguish "cannot resolve" from "declares none", reject recording-only args on the read verb

Codex review of the whole PR, five findings, all verified against source first.

Major 3 (the one real defect). Both surfaces read isolation as
`ISOLATION=$(… || echo "none")`, so a resolver failure became indistinguishable
from a genuine `dispatch.isolation: none` declaration — and W024's text then
asserts the latter, telling a user their runtime declares no executor-isolation
primitive when GSD simply could not find out. health.md and settings.md now
capture the raw value and track ISOLATION_RESOLVED, the same shape
references/dispatch-isolation-gate.md already uses (#2652 review). W024 gained a
second message for the unresolved case; settings still fails closed there — it
must never persist a `true` it cannot justify — but reports what happened rather
than a verdict it never reached.

Major 4. `dispatch-isolation` applies --force-isolation AFTER the shared
resolver returns; inspection accepted the flag and silently ignored it, so the
same argv yielded 'none' from one verb and the declared capability from the
other. inspect-dispatch-isolation now rejects --force-isolation/--phase/--plan
as usage errors. Verified by mutation: disabling the guard reds exactly the
three new rejection tests.

Major 1. settings.md claimed this flow and the execution guards "always reach
the same verdict". False while quick.md still gates on the runtime name: an
orchestrator-worktree host can be offered a `true` that /gsd:quick rejects as
fatal, W024 silent because isolation is not none. Scoped the claim to the
capability gate, named #2728 as the conversion, and added the same caveat to the
CONFIGURATION.md use_worktrees row. Not a behavior change — the `!= none` branch
is untouched base behavior.

Major 2. "side-effect-free" overstated it: every gsd-tools invocation runs the
shared bootstrap, and getActiveWorkstream unlinks a stale workstream pointer.
That is pre-existing, verb-independent and cannot block a dispatch; writing the
sentinel can. Renamed the claim to "sentinel-free" everywhere and documented
precisely what is and is not asserted.

Minor 5. The JSON parity test asserted against a handwritten key list and never
invoked the recording verb, so the two could diverge and stay green. It now runs
`dispatch-isolation --json` in a separate project dir and deep-compares, with a
control asserting that verb DID write a sentinel. Added the orchestrator exec
branch (--cwd-target) the registry parity test never covered.

runtime-converters.test.cjs pinned the old `|| echo "none"` line as canonical —
that literal was the Major 3 defect. Repinned as two invariants (the raw read is
present; the collapsing fallback is absent) plus an ISOLATION_RESOLVED
requirement, so reformatting does not fail the test but a semantic regression
does.

settings.md sits at 40777 bytes against the 40960 DEFAULT hard cap. The
round-9 prose was compressed to fit rather than raising the cap.

Validated: lint:ci clean; full suite green except the two failures that
reproduce identically on pristine next @ 33fca50d (#1160 _resolveManifest, and
the #3053 quick_id tests, which compare a local-time expectation against a
TZ=UTC child and so only pass on a UTC host).

* fix(#2486): second review pass — drop a dangling reference, correct the whole unresolved branch, pin the branch behaviorally

Codex re-review of the full PR after the first round-9 pass. It confirmed Majors
1, 2 and 4 and Minor 5 fixed, and found seven more. All verified against source.

Minor 5 was mine and the worst of them: settings.md and health.md pointed at
`gsd-core/references/dispatch-isolation-gate.md`, which exists only on the #2728
branch — not in this PR and not on the merge-base. Merging this alone would have
shipped three dangling canonical-source references. Removed; the surrounding
text now stands on its own.

Major 2. The unresolved branch corrected only the two option descriptions. The
pre-selection rationale still claimed an absent key already resolves to false on
this runtime, and the explicit-true notice still stated the runtime declares no
primitive — both capability verdicts that were never reached. The substitution
rule now covers every place in that branch that asserts one.

Major 3. The repinned invariants could not catch the mutation they existed to
catch: flipping the shipped block's ISOLATION_RESOLVED=true to false left all
three green, since they only assert the raw read is present, the token appears,
and the collapsing fallback is gone. Added a behavioral test that drives the
shipped W024 block twice — resolver answering vs resolver exiting non-zero — and
asserts the two emit different text, that the unresolved branch says "could not
resolve", and that it does NOT claim the runtime has no primitive. Verified: the
true->false mutation now reds it.

Major 1. The verb fail-closes an unknown or undeclared runtime to `none` and
exits 0, so ISOLATION_RESOLVED=true means "the query answered", not "the runtime
published a declaration" — the shell cannot see an internal fallback. Exposing
provenance is an API change and out of scope here, so W024's resolved-case text
is instead written to be true of every path that reaches it ("no usable
executor-isolation primitive — declared or fail-closed from an unknown value"),
and both workflows state the limit of the signal explicitly.

Minor 4. The rejection tests regex-matched human prose, so swapping
ERROR_REASON.USAGE for UNKNOWN would have kept them green while breaking machine
consumers. They now pass --json-errors and assert reason === 'usage' on the
parsed envelope.

Minor 6. CONTEXT.md still described the verb as side-effect-free. Now
sentinel-free, consistent with the router comment and the other two surfaces.

Minor 7. 183 bytes of headroom under the 40960 hard cap was called
unacceptable, and it was — a routine 184-byte edit would have failed CI.
Compressed this PR's own settings.md prose (the #2486 block was carrying ~7.1KB
of rationale) to 40499 bytes, 458 free. Two phrases other tests pin verbatim
were restored after the first compression pass reworded them.

Validated: lint:ci clean; full suite green except the two failures that
reproduce identically on pristine next @ 33fca50d.

* fix(#2486): third review pass — placeholder table replaces the fragile substitution rule

Codex round 3 blocked the push on two Majors. Both verified and real.

Major 2 was the substantive one and my error. The round-2 fix told the model to
find and replace the string "this runtime declares no executor-isolation
primitive (dispatch.isolation: none)" — text that does not appear anywhere in
the branch. The first option description has no parenthetical, the second
asserts "absent, it already resolves to false on this runtime" (not covered at
all), and the pre-selection rationale and notice carried three more unsupported
assertions. A model following the instruction literally would have found no
match and changed nothing.

Replaced with three named placeholders — {FINDING}, {CONSEQUENCE}, {ABSENCE} —
and a two-column table giving each one's resolved and unresolved wording. Every
assertion in the branch now flows from the table, so none of them can outrun
what was actually established, and there is no string-matching to get wrong. It
is also shorter than the prose it replaced.

Major 1: the resolver catches thrown errors and returns none successfully, a
path the round-2 wording ("declared, or unknown/undeclared") did not cover.
Both surfaces now say "declared as none, or fail-closed because the capability
could not be determined", which is true of the thrown path too, and both state
that an internal resolution error is among the things the verb fail-closes.
Still not provenance — the verb cannot distinguish these for the caller — but no
longer a claim the code contradicts.

Minor 3: the behavioral test asserted only that the two branches differ and that
the resolved one omits "could not resolve", so arbitrary resolved text stayed
green. Now pins what it must positively say: the capability finding, the
fail-closed consequence, the offending key, and (both branches) the repair
command.

Minor 4: two stale artifacts the round-2 sweep missed — a test comment still
citing the #2728-only references/dispatch-isolation-gate.md, and the emitted
drift ack still describing inspection as side-effect-free. Also aligned the two
remaining router comments to sentinel-free.

* fix(#2486): fourth review pass — stop recommending a repair whose effect depends on the emit

Codex round 4, one Major and three Minors. The Major is a real hole and worth
the round.

W024 advised "remove the key from .planning/config.json so the runtime default
(false) applies". That default is not false everywhere: execute-phase.md:102,
quick.md:155 and diagnose-issues.md:62 all read the key as
`|| echo "true"`, and only `_stampNonClaudeRuntimeDefaults` rewrites them to
`--default false` on a non-Claude emit. So on an un-stamped emit the advised
repair leaves use_worktrees resolving to TRUE against isolation none — exactly
the state W024 exists to flag. Reachable in the round-3 gap: a caught internal
resolver error returns none with rc=0, so ISOLATION_RESOLVED is true and the
confident branch fires on a host whose emit was never stamped.

Fixed by removing the dependence rather than the symptom: both surfaces now say
to set workflow.use_worktrees false explicitly, and say why deleting the key is
not equivalent. The {ABSENCE} placeholder no longer claims absence resolves to
false unconditionally — it is scoped to an emit that stamped that default.

Minor: the notice and W024 hardcoded .planning/config.json, which is the wrong
file in an active workstream (settings itself resolves $GSD_CONFIG_PATH
correctly). Both now say "the project config", naming the workstream case.

Minor: the new repair pin required the literal /gsd:settings, a form documented
as no longer routable. Relaxed to accept the canonical slash and $-prefixed
forms so a correct rewording cannot fail the test.

Nit: two test descriptions still said side-effect-free.

Not fixed, deliberately: the verb still cannot tell a caught resolver error from
a declared none, so ISOLATION_RESOLVED remains a signal about the CALL, not the
declaration. Both workflows now state that limit outright. Exposing provenance
is a change to the query contract that belongs with the runtime-resolution work
in #2395, not here.

Validated: lint:ci clean; full suite green except the two failures that
reproduce identically on pristine next @ 33fca50d. The only change after that
suite run was removing a redundant regex escape flagged by eslint; that test was
re-run individually and eslint is clean.

* fix(#2486): fifth review pass — stop recommending "leave it absent" as the safe default

Codex round 5, one Major: the round-4 fix corrected the {ABSENCE} wording but
left the pre-selection rule built on the assumption it had just falsified. An
absent key still pre-selected "Leave unchanged" on the rationale that there was
nothing to repair. Absence resolves to false only where the emit stamped that
default; on an un-stamped emit it reads as true, so accepting the recommended
default could preserve the exact isolation-none-plus-true state this branch
exists to prevent.

The isolation-none branch now pre-selects "No (Recommended)" in every case,
including an absent key. Writing an explicit false is correct under either emit;
"Leave unchanged" stays available for the deliberate shared-config case but is
never the default. The test that pinned the old rule pinned a falsified
assumption, so it now pins the new one and asserts the old sentence is gone.

Also tightened the round-4 repair regex, which had been relaxed far enough to
accept `$gsd:settings` and `/gsd:settings-bogus`. It now matches only the
canonical `/gsd-settings`, `/gsd:settings` and `$gsd-settings` forms.

* fix(#2486): make the inspection exemption block-scoped, and drop the last pre-#2728 claim

Codex review of the conflict resolution: one Major, two Minors, all real.

Major. The inspection-surface exemption I added to #2728's "every dispatch-site
degrade block re-records" guard was FILE-wide. Codex probed it by adding an
unrecorded executor block to health.md: the exemption assertions still passed,
the whole file was skipped, and the offender went unreported. That is the same
hole the hand-listed revision of this guard had — a promise of "every dispatch
site" with a silent carve-out.

Now scoped per block. A block earns the exemption only by resolving through
`inspect-dispatch-isolation` AND carrying no dispatch primitive (`Agent(`,
`harnessFlag`/`HARNESS_FLAG`, `isolation="worktree"`, or the recording verb).
The file-level assertions remain as a precondition on top. Verified with Codex's
own probe: the appended dispatch block is now reported at health.md:285, while
the legitimate inspection block still passes.

Minor. settings.md still carried the caveat saying `quick.md` gates on the
runtime name and "#2728 converts that surface". #2728 has landed. Same obsolete
premise already removed from docs/CONFIGURATION.md in the merge commit; this was
the copy I missed. Removing it also returns 413 bytes, so settings.md now has
688 free under the 40960 cap rather than 275.

Minor. Four scratch-directory prefixes still read `w024` after the renumber.
Non-functional, but the whole point of the rename was that W024 now means
someone else's warning.

Validated: lint:ci clean; full suite green except the two failures that
reproduce identically on pristine next.

* fix(#2486): name the diagnostics' state INSPECTED_ISOLATION and delete the exemption

Codex probed the per-block exemption and it was still escapable: DISPATCH_PRIMITIVE
matched only `Agent(`, two harness-flag spellings, `isolation="worktree"` and the
recording verb, so `Task(`, `spawn_agent(`, a `codex exec` process dispatch, and —
unfixably by any regex — the repo's normal split shape (isolation resolved in one
bash fence, dispatch in a later one) all still qualified as exempt.

Took Codex's suggested fix, which is better than the one it replaces. The
diagnostics now name their state `INSPECTED_ISOLATION` / `INSPECTED_RESOLVED` /
`_INSPECTED_RAW` instead of reusing the dispatch-site names. #2728's guard scans
for a literal `ISOLATION=none`, so health.md and settings.md fall outside it BY
CONSTRUCTION and the exemption is deleted outright — no carve-out to escape, and
a diagnostic that ever writes a real `ISOLATION=none` is caught like any other
site. The name is also just more accurate: an inspection result is not a dispatch
decision.

Pinned so the reasoning cannot be lost: the #2486 suite now asserts neither
diagnostic assigns the bare `ISOLATION` name, with the rationale in the comment.
Verified by mutation — renaming back makes #2728's guard flag health.md:107 AND
fails the new naming pin.

Net effect on the guard's coverage is positive: before this PR it scanned two
fewer files by exemption; now it scans everything.

77374cfc32 fix(#2528): resolve digit-leading phase directories by bare number (#2559)
* fix(#2528): resolve digit-slug phase dirs by bare number — tokenizer rewind, shared bare-integer fallback, resolution-path parity gate

extractPhaseToken welded 2-digit slug words onto the phase token (phase 10
named "24/7 Autonomy" -> dir 10-24-7 -> token 10-24), making digit-prefixed
phase names unresolvable by bare number across every phase verb.

- phase-id: continuation segments must be the PURE 2-digit zero-padded form
  the write side emits; a 1-digit terminator rewinds the absorbed run
  (10-24-7 -> 10) while >=2-digit terminators keep the locked #2232
  round-trip (14-06-2026-photos -> 14-06).
- phase-id: new matchPhaseDirs owner — primary exact-token match plus a
  bare-integer leading-digit-run fallback for shapes the tokenizer cannot
  rewind (05-80-20-cleanup); collisions stay #2237-loud.
- locator/find-phase/phase-plan-index all delegate selection to the owner;
  plan-index gains the previously missing multi-match guard.
- tests: #2528 unit + fast-check metamorphic blocks; new 9-scenario
  resolution-path parity gate across all three paths.

* docs: document digit-leading phase resolution

* docs: register canonical phase directory selectors

* fix(#2528): route the fourth resolution site through matchPhaseDirs

Review BLOCKER. smart-entry.cts::detectVerifyFailed resolved the current
phase's directory with its own `.find(phaseTokenMatches)` and never
reached the shared selection, so the bare-integer-fallback family the
issue names — `05-80-20-cleanup`, `30-12-factor-refactor` — resolved
nowhere. The miss is silent by construction: an unresolved phase reports
"not failed", which is byte-identical to a healthy one, so a failed
verification simply never surfaced in /gsd or /gsd:progress.

`entries` is already sorted and matchPhaseDirs filters without
reordering, so matches[0] reproduces the previous selection exactly
wherever the old code resolved at all.

Wiring it into phase-resolution-parity.test.cjs as a fourth path then
exposed a second, older defect in the same function: phaseTokenFromDirName
shape-probed the UNSTRIPPED token, so a project-code-prefixed directory
(`MEM-05-…`, tokenizing to `MEM-05-80-20`) failed the leading-digit test
and was dropped before any resolution ran — every phase in a
project-coded plan was invisible to this check. The probe now runs on the
stripped token; the returned value is unchanged, so the comparePhaseNum
sort is untouched.

Path 4 has no JSON surface to compare, so the gate observes selection
indirectly: plant the failing artifact in exactly one directory and a
passing one everywhere else, then read the boolean. Reverting either fix
turns 5 of the 10 corpus scenarios red.

* refactor(#2528): collapse the duplicated extractCanonicalPlanId

Review MAJOR. The function existed as two independent, byte-identical
copies — src/core-utils.cts and src/phase.cts — and this PR had to patch
BOTH with the same single-digit-slug rewind rule. That is the generative
fix divergence CLAUDE.md names, and only the core-utils copy was under
test, so a future one-sided patch would have silently split plan-id
canonicalization between the plan listing and everything else.

Removed rather than parity-tested: core-utils was already the leaf owner
and already exported it, and phase.cts already imported that module, so
there is no second surface left for a parity test to police.

* test(#2528): pin matchPhaseDirs at the digit-width boundaries

Review MAJOR. The bare-integer fallback's correctness rests entirely on
capturing each directory's whole leading digit run before the zero-strip
compare; a regex that stopped short would turn every query into a prefix
match, and "1" would claim 10, 100, and 12 alike. The existing coverage
was example-based and never touched that boundary.

Adds the explicit 9/10 and 1/10/100 cases — including the forms where
only the wider directories exist, so an exact-width neighbour cannot
satisfy the assertion — plus a fast-check property over arbitrary
distinct leading runs. The property is stated as an invariant on the
result (every returned directory's leading run IS the query) rather than
an expected list, so it covers primary and fallback matches alike and
cannot be satisfied by reimplementing the selection in the test.

Both fail when the fallback regex is degraded to a prefix match.

* fix(#2528): route the remaining eight consumers through matchPhaseDirs

phaseTokenMatches had eight consumers left that each rebuilt the directory
selection around it by hand: phases-list, next-decimal, phase-remove, the
W021 milestone-consistency check, schema-drift, the init-manager overview,
milestone-complete's disk check, and roadmap analyze. Every one of them
reproduced the reported symptom in full after the tokenizer was fixed.

None of them derives a displayed phase number from the matched directory,
so none needs phaseNumberForMatch; the change at each site is the
selection and nothing else. matchPhaseDirs filters without reordering, so
matches[0] reproduces the prior .find() choice wherever the old code
resolved at all.

phaseTokenMatches now has no call sites outside phase-id.cts. It stays
exported as the primitive matchPhaseDirs is built from and as a pinned
canonical surface, but no consumer reaches past the owner to it.

* test(#2528): extend the parity gate to the migrated consumers

Each of the eight is observed through the surface a user sees, not
through the matcher, with a no-directory control so the assertions cannot
be satisfied by a consumer that resolves unconditionally. init-manager
and roadmap-analyze are additionally asserted to agree with each other.

* refactor(#2528): own the case-flexible phase grammar and the leading-digit-run fragment

validate.cts derived its case-flexible regex sources by running
`replaceAll('A-Z', 'A-Za-z')` over two constants exported by phase-id.cts.
That passes lint-phase-id-drift.cjs — there is no literal copy of the
grammar — but it depends on the owner rendering that exact substring. The
day phase-id.cts expresses the same class any other way the replaceAll
silently no-ops and validate.cts narrows to uppercase-only. The failure
mode is a NON-match, so nothing throws and no uppercase-only fixture
notices. Both variants are now derived once, beside the sources they
widen, and imported.

Also names the leading digit run the bare-integer fallback selects on.
It was spelled `/^(\d+)(?:-|$)/` where the fallback filters and `/^\d+/`
where phaseNumberForMatch reads the number back off the winner; selecting
on one run and displaying another would resolve a directory and then label
it with a number that never matched it.

* fix(#2528): refuse to remove a phase when two directories claim its number

cmdPhaseRemove was the only migrated site taking matches[0] with no
multi-match guard. Every sibling resolution path returns ambiguous_matches
and refuses to choose; this one is the DESTRUCTIVE path, so choosing
silently is strictly worse than anywhere else. With 05-80-20-a and
05-90-till-late on disk, `phase remove 5 --force` deleted one of them and
renumbered every phase after it — where the base resolved nothing, deleted
nothing, and the corpus in tests/phase-resolution-parity.test.cjs already
declared that exact input ambiguous.

The refusal is emitted before any file is touched and carries both
candidates. CONSUMER_SCENARIOS could not express the case — every row is
binary, resolving to one directory or to none — so the gate gains a
dedicated ambiguous test. It asserts on the filesystem, not only on the
reported directory_deleted: a null printed after an rmSync would satisfy
every other check.

* fix(#2528): pair digit-leading phase directories with their roadmap phase in validate health

W006/W007 are the ninth site of this bug class and the one a
`phaseTokenMatches` grep could never surface: they resolve roadmap↔disk by
intersecting TOKEN SETS, which is a dir→token labelling rather than the
query→dir selection matchPhaseDirs owns. On the canonical fixture the
label is wrong in both directions at once, so `validate health` reported
"Phase 5 in ROADMAP.md but no directory on disk" AND "Phase 05-80-20
exists on disk but not in ROADMAP.md" for the same directory.

collectDiskPhases now keeps the directory names behind each token, so
W006 can ask the canonical matcher whether a roadmap phase resolves to a
real directory, and W007 — which iterates directories and therefore has no
query to resolve — gets the inverse mapping it never had: a directory is
claimed when some roadmap phase resolves to it.

Both checks are additive: the token intersection still decides every shape
it already decided, and the resolution can only REMOVE a warning. The
regression test carries controls in the other direction — a roadmap phase
with no directory must still raise W006, an unclaimed directory must still
raise W007 — so it cannot be satisfied by a check that stopped reporting.

* docs(#2528): state and pin the directory-side scope of the bare-integer fallback

The matchPhaseDirs docblock claimed deep-decomposition lookups were
untouched. That is true of the QUERY side only — no non-bare query enters
the fallback — but the DIRECTORY side is what changed classification: a
bare `5` now reaches a lone `05-01-auth` and resolves it (phase_number
"05", phase_name "01-auth") where the base found nothing.

The widening is irreducible from directory names alone. `05-01-auth`
(sub-phase 5.1) and `30-12-factor-refactor` (phase 30 named "12-Factor
Refactor") are the same `NN-NN-<slug>` shape, and the discriminator that
would separate them — "is the second segment a valid decimal sub-phase" —
accepts `5.1` and `30.12` equally. Any rule strong enough to exclude the
first excludes the second, which is the defect #2528 exists to fix. So the
tie is broken in favour of resolving, the docblock now says so, and the
consequence is bounded where it matters: two such directories are two
matches, and every caller (including phase remove) refuses to choose.

Pins both directions, since nothing observed the directory side before.

* fix(#2528): count surviving phases by identity in phase remove's STATE resync

#2640 landed on `next` while this branch was open. Its STATE.md phase-count
resync re-derives "which directory was removed" from the query with
`phaseTokenMatches`, which is the tenth site of this issue's defect: the
bare-integer fallback resolves `05-80-20-cleanup` for query `5`, but the
token predicate does not, so the just-deleted directory is counted as still
present and the written `Total Phases` is one too high.

`targetDir` already IS the directory that was removed, and the block is gated
on it being non-null, so identity answers the question exactly — which is also
what the comment above the filter already claimed it did. This keeps
`phaseTokenMatches` out of `phase.cts` rather than re-importing it to satisfy
one call site: the module's public surface should not grow for a question that
does not need re-derivation.

Pinned in the parity gate with a control on a directory the tokenizer reads
correctly, so the assertion is about the digit-leading shape and not about the
counting rule changing for everything.

* fix(#2528): let the resolution layer own the digit-leading slug family alone

The tokenizer rewind this fix carried — pop the last absorbed continuation when
the segment that stopped the scan is a bare single digit — reads
"10-24-7-autonomy" (phase 10 named "24/7 Autonomy") correctly and silently
re-reads "10-24-7-zip" (sub-phase 10.24 named "7-Zip Integration") from "10-24"
to "10". The two names are string-identical in shape, so no local signal
separates them; the rule traded the reported ambiguity for the symmetric one a
level down, on a 15-caller chokepoint whose output also feeds query-less
derivations (STATE.md phase counts, W007, the #2562 key surface). A well-formed
sub-phase directory became unresolvable by its own id — the very symptom #2528
was filed about.

It also bought nothing. The bare-integer fallback in matchPhaseDirs already
resolves "10-24-7-autonomy" for query "10" whatever the token is: no primary
match, bare query, leading digit run "10". The reported case was covered twice,
by two rules, and the two disagreed about the case nobody reported.

So the rewind is removed rather than narrowed, in the tokenizer and in the five
surfaces kept in lockstep with it (BRACKET_PHASE_TOKEN_SOURCE,
PHASE_TOKEN_FROM_DIR_RE, canonicalPlanStem's pair grammar and its collision
branch, roadmap-parser's numericRe, extractCanonicalPlanId), together with the
SINGLE_DIGIT_RUN_SEGMENT_SOURCE owner constant they shared. Disambiguation now
lives only where a QUERY exists to disambiguate against, which is the same
bounded mechanism the "05-80-20-cleanup" shape already used.

Measured, not argued: over 29800 generated directory names, extractPhaseToken is
byte-identical to `next` on every input except the lowercase-continuation class
("01-20a", "05-80-20-25abc") — a rule about the segment itself, not a guess about
its neighbour.

Both readings now stay reachable by their own ids:
  matchPhaseDirs(['10-24-7-autonomy'], '10')    -> the dir   (fallback)
  matchPhaseDirs(['10-24-7-zip'],      '10')    -> the dir   (fallback)
  matchPhaseDirs(['10-24-7-zip'],      '10-24') -> the dir   (primary)

* test(#2528): pin the one-continuation boundary the rewind had no coverage for

The regressing shape was invisible to the suite by construction, not by luck:
the deep-rewind property built its cases from `continuationArb` with
`minLength: 2`, so it never exercised the single-continuation case — exactly one
genuine sub-phase level before a digit-leading slug — and every hand-written
fixture used the ambiguous shape only where "phase-plus-slug" was the intended
reading.

`continuationArb` is now `minLength: 1` and the property states the invariant
instead of the old rule: for any prefix, phase, 1-5 continuations and any
one-digit terminator, the token equals the FULL continuation run on both the
imperative and the regex surface, and `matchPhaseDirs([dir], token)` returns that
dir. That third assertion is the one that catches the class on its own — the old
behaviour made a well-formed directory unresolvable by its own id, which is a
property, not a fixture.

Around it: "10-24-7-zip" and "10-24-3d-printer" now sit beside
"10-24-7-autonomy" everywhere the family is pinned, so the two readings can never
diverge again; the 24/7 metamorphic property asserts the RESOLUTION result rather
than the token (the token is precisely the part no surface may decide); the
end-to-end parity corpus gains "a sub-phase with a digit-leading slug resolves by
its full id" across all four resolution paths; and the milestone-scoping residual
is pinned in three directions rather than left to prose.

Mutation: re-inserting the rewind and rebuilding turns 9 tests red, the
`minLength: 1` property first, and nothing else. Build success checked separately
(build:lib reports 0 `error TS`), so the mutation reached the artifact under test.

* test(#2528): pin the #2946 guard against digit-leading phase directories

The #2946 fix makes the milestone-complete unstarted-phase guard run
unconditionally, so whether it fires now rides entirely on the
directory-resolution owner this PR replaces. Two cases, both with STATE.md
carrying no `milestone:` field so the #2946 path is the one exercised:

  - ROADMAP Phase 5, disk `05-80-20-cleanup` → guard must stay silent.
    RED on next (fail-closed: the guard blocks a legitimate one-way-door
    operation because phaseTokenMatches resolves neither 05 nor 80 for
    that directory).
  - ROADMAP Phase 80, same directory → guard must still fire. Green on
    both sides; it pins the fail-open direction against a future widening
    of the matcher.

* fix(#3175): stop the injection scanner reading RegExp.exec as code execution

The apostrophe fix in 27aa40f6 replaced ["\x27] with a real ["'] class.
The old class never contained an apostrophe at all (POSIX bracket
expressions do not honour backslash escapes, so it was the set ", \, x,
2, 7), so only exec(" matched. Single-quoted method calls now match for
the first time, and RegExp.prototype.exec takes a subject string, not
code: any PR touching a file that tests a regex goes red. On next, six
files match the scanner's own pattern across 16 method calls.

A plain [^[:alnum:]] boundary cannot separate the two forms because . is
not alnum, so exec gets [^[:alnum:].] and the command-execution vector
moves to a dedicated member-call pattern. Bare exec('rm -rf /'),
cp.exec(...) and child_process.exec(...) all still fire.

Mutation: reverting the boundary reds 1 test and only it; removing the
member-call pattern reds the 2 non-weakening tests and only them.

* fix(#2528): keep exec( detection receiver-blind, allowlist the two grammar suites

The left boundary [^[:alnum:].] added in 58a7b560 excluded a preceding dot,
which dropped every member-position .exec('…') from the scanner. The follow-up
receiver pattern only restored three literal spellings (child_process,
childProcess, cp), so require('child_process').exec('…') — the most common Node
spelling of the vector this pattern exists to catch — became invisible, along
with any opaque receiver (conn.exec, shelljs.exec).

Revert the pattern to its receiver-blind form and handle the RegExp.prototype
.exec false positive where the script already handles this class: per-file
ALLOWLIST entries for the two phase-token grammar suites. Mutation-checked —
removing the two entries reds exactly those two files and nothing else.

The four assertions written around the old patterns are replaced by a
table-driven set covering all six spellings, including the three the narrowed
pattern silently lost.

* docs(#2528): pin the three undeclared grammar edges, correct the ambiguity claim

Review round 10 asked for declaration, not behavior change, on four items. All
four have zero production consumers or preserve their caller's prior rule, so
each is pinned as a test or corrected in prose rather than reverted.

- BRACKET_PHASE_TOKEN_SOURCE: the (?=-|$) terminator is what keeps the bracket
  read path in step with the other surfaces, and it costs the display shapes
  (`05.03: Title`, `12A: X`, `05.03]` no longer tokenize). Pinned so widening
  the terminator class is a deliberate act rather than a lookahead deletion.
- canonicalPlanStem: uppercase plan suffixes still strip, lowercase and dotted
  sub-plans now fall through. Dead export; pinned as a decision on record.
- getMilestonePhaseFilter: `12A-01-foo` now yields `12A-01`, matching what
  `12-01-foo` has always yielded. The letter suffix was the only reason a
  sub-phase directory folded into its parent phase's milestone window; the two
  shapes now agree. Not named in the review — found auditing the same commit.
- matchPhaseDirs docblock claimed every caller refuses on multi-match. Four do;
  five take matches[0]. Replaced the claim with the actual two-tier policy and
  the honest caveat that the bare fallback makes multi-match newly reachable
  for queries that previously found nothing.

c516c39b33 fix(#3203): stop npm-global installs validating bundled agents against themselves (#3229)
* fix(#3203): stop npm-global installs validating bundled agents against themselves

getAgentsDir's claude branch derived the agents directory from __dirname,
which is correct for repo runs and runtime-config-dir installs (where
<root>/../agents IS the user's agents dir) but on an npm-global install
resolves to the package's own bundled agents/, so checkAgentsInstalled
validated the package against itself and agents_installed could never be
false. The new-project and new-milestone halt/warn gates were silently
dead for npm-global users.

Keep the install-relative path for the shapes where it is correct, but
when it lies inside a node_modules tree — the provably self-validating
case — resolve getGlobalConfigDir('claude')/agents like every other
runtime, honouring CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR. GSD_AGENTS_DIR stays priority 1.
Repair the doc comment that asserted the __dirname form was correct for
both install shapes.

Regression test mirrors the published npm-global layout (package under
node_modules with a complete bundled agents/) and pins the resolved
directory plus the issue's negative control (one agent missing from the
config dir → agents_installed:false). Verified red against pre-fix code,
green post-fix; the repo-layout W010 health test stays green.

* chore(#3203): set changeset fragment pr to 3229

* docs(#3203): describe the node_modules guard as lexical, in CONTEXT.md and at the call site

The Agent Install Check Module glossary entry asserted that Claude resolves the
agents directory `__dirname`-relative unconditionally. That is the premise this
PR falsified: on an npm-global install the install-relative path resolves to the
package's own bundled `agents/`, so the check validated the package against
itself and `agents_installed` could never be false.

The inline doc comment above `getAgentsDir` was repaired with the fix; this
external predicate was left behind and has been false since. CONTRIBUTING.md's
`Fixed`-fragment docs exemption names this case explicitly — "Edit the docs
anyway if a fix corrects something the docs got wrong."

Both surfaces now describe the guard as what it is: an exact, case-sensitive
path-segment test that TARGETS those layouts rather than detecting them, so
neither claims more certainty than the predicate has. The call-site comment
carried the same conflation the glossary did. A path merely carrying a directory
of that name resolves the same way — the edge already disclosed on this PR — and
a non-empty GSD_AGENTS_DIR overrides it.

Comment-only in `src/`; no behaviour change.

`CONFIG.LOCATION.SEAM.two-families` needs no change: `GSD_AGENTS_DIR ->
getAgentsDir priority 1` is still accurate.

3dff700aaa fix(#3102): render edge-probe coverage report so the resolution loop consumes it (#3391)
* fix(#3102): render edge-probe coverage report so the resolution loop consumes it

Step 5.5 captured the edge-probe report into $COVERAGE, shape-checked it, and
reduced it to coverage.applicable — the engine's per-requirement items[] never
reached the model, so the resolution loop re-derived edge categories from prose
(the data-flow twin of #2733's control-flow discard). The block's own comment
claimed the opposite.

Render $COVERAGE RAW into context after the well-formedness guard (schema-agnostic
so an ADR-550 D7a-style re-cut cannot desync a bespoke renderer), and bind the rows
in the resolution loop as a deterministic FLOOR the model unions with its own
classification — floor, never ceiling, since the classifier has a measured recall
gap (ADR-857 §98 / ADR-550 D7b). --auto consumes the same floor. Comment corrected
to match. Regression test asserts a bare render of $COVERAGE, not a count-only cross.

* chore(#3102): add changeset for the Step 5.5 edge-coverage render fix

* chore(#3102): re-arm spec-phase.md emitted-drift ack for the Step 5.5 render growth

The render + floor-binding prose grows spec-phase.md ~1818 bytes (32238 -> 34056,
under the 40960 cap). Re-arms the existing spent spec-phase.md ack rather than adding
a new fragment (a second key would collide with the base-relative duplicate check).

RED step: SKIP_DIRS does not yet exclude .claude/.planning, so this test
is expected to fail until the next commit adds them.

* fix(#3321): exclude .claude/.planning from no-phantom-issue-refs SKIP_DIRS

walk() previously had no guard against descending into ambient,
gitignored .claude/worktrees/** or .planning/** content, so this
guard's pass/fail would have depended on the developer's local
worktree layout the next time PHANTOM is repopulated. Currently
dormant (PHANTOM=[] short-circuits via t.skip before walk() runs)
but the gap was real, per #1885 F23.

86101ee612 fix(#3133): keep global Claude @-references on tilde, not $HOME (#3393)
* test(#3133): global Claude @-references must resolve on tilde, not $HOME

Regression for #3133: on a global Claude install, _applyRuntimeRewrites
rewrites @~/.claude/... -> @$HOME/.claude/..., but Claude Code does not
expand $HOME in @-file references, so the include silently resolves to
nothing and the skill loads an empty execution_context. Rows 1/2/6/9 fail
RED on next; rows 3-5/7-8 guard #1284 (shell $HOME), local redirect,
#3503 (no homedir leak), and non-Claude isolation.

* fix(#3133): keep global Claude @-references on tilde, not $HOME

On a global Claude install, _applyRuntimeRewrites rewrote every @~/.claude/
include to @$HOME/.claude/ because computePathPrefix returns the $HOME form
for shell-context correctness (#1284: ~ does not expand inside double quotes).
Claude Code does not expand $HOME in @-file references, so the rewritten
include silently resolved to nothing and skills loaded an empty
execution_context. Add a normalization pass in the claude case: when the
prefix is the $HOME (global) form, restore @$HOME/.claude/ -> @~/.claude/
(the form Claude expands and the shipped tarball uses). Shell contexts keep
$HOME; local installs (absolute prefix) are unaffected; computePathPrefix is
untouched (all its tests stay green).

* test(#3133): fix row 9 assertion — drop end-of-string anchor

Row 9's regex used $ (end-of-string) but a realistic @-ref line ends with
a newline, so the anchor could not match. The fix under test produces the
correct @~/.claude/gsd-core/references/ui-brand.md tail; only the assertion
was wrong. Drop the anchor and assert the tail + no @$HOME.

2b20b7e2cd fix(#3257): preserve full-line frontmatter comments through the parse→reconstruct pair + syncStateFrontmatter (#3387)
* test(#3257: full-line frontmatter comments survive the parse→reconstruct pair AND a mutating state verb

parseYamlRegion dropped column-0 # comments and reconstructFrontmatter rebuilt
from Object.entries alone, so full-line comments were silently destroyed on
every mutating STATE verb. Add failing-first regressions: 3 unit tests for the
public pair (comment between keys, leading+trailing, consecutive) and an e2e
test running a state verb (state update) on a commented STATE.md — the e2e
exercises syncStateFrontmatter's fresh-derivedFm rebuild path, which is the
actual loss site the issue is filed against.

RED — fails on next; fix follows.

* fix(#3257: preserve full-line frontmatter comments through parse→reconstruct AND syncStateFrontmatter

Carry column-0 # comments through the frontmatter pair via a Symbol-keyed
channel (FULL_LINE_COMMENTS): parseYamlRegion captures ^# lines and attaches
them to the next top-level key (leading) or a trailing slot; reconstructFrontmatter
re-emits them in place. The Symbol is invisible to Object.entries/keys/JSON, so
every existing reader is unchanged; the channel is created only when a comment
is seen, so comment-less frontmatter is byte-identical.

CRITICAL (isolated review): syncStateFrontmatter rebuilds its target via
buildStateFrontmatter (fresh object) + an Object.keys carry-forward, both of
which skip the Symbol — so the pair-preserving channel was lost on the very
STATE verbs the issue names. Export propagateCommentChannel(source, target)
from frontmatter.cts and call it in syncStateFrontmatter before reconstruct,
copying the channel onto derivedFm (leading filtered to keys still present so a
deleted key's annotation drops with it, trailing preserved). Decision A.

c70e736c85 fix: eliminate resource-collision race in ship-notes-wedged-pr jq() mock
Unrelated defect surfaced by a real gsd-test failure while verifying
#3339 (test/3339-fold-state-model-profile diffs zero files this fix
touches -- confirmed via `git diff <this-branch> origin/next -- ...`
returning empty for this file, ship.md, and gsd-core/bin/lib/*.cjs).
Fixed inline per this repo's no-defer policy for defects found while
building, rather than deferred.

The test's jq() mock shelled out to a full new Node.js process for
every mocked `jq -r .field` call inside the extracted track_shipping
bash script. The "exhausts the polling bound" test hits up to 24 cold
Node spawns in one spawnSync call (6 polling iterations x 4 jq calls),
racing a hardcoded 10s timeout -- under CI contention this tipped over
on the linux-node22 lane specifically while linux-node24 had headroom,
producing spawnSync's signal-killed `status: null` instead of the
process's real exit code, asserted against the expected 0.

Replaced the Node-subprocess jq() mock with a pure-shell sed -nE field
extractor that never forks a process, eliminating the variable-cost
operation rather than just widening the timeout. Verified extraction
correctness against sample JSON (head/status/checks/review, including
empty-string and non-matching-field cases). Locally verified (scoped
per session policy): all 9 tests in the file pass; the previously-
marginal test dropped from ~617ms to ~198ms.

The underlying track_shipping polling logic in ship.md was confirmed
correct and untouched -- this was a test-fixture race, not a product
bug.

4036470ca0 fix(#3339): consolidated helper silently overwrote an unrelated module-scope function
The runVerifiedPhaseComplete(args, tmpDir) consolidation in the prior
commit hoisted a `function` declaration into a bare (sloppy-mode) block.
Annex B legacy hoisting semantics mean a block-scoped function
declaration in sloppy mode also reassigns any enclosing var of the same
name the instant the block executes -- and this file already had an
unrelated module-scope runVerifiedPhaseComplete(args, tmpDir, env) at
line 54, used by ~50 other call sites throughout the file. The block ran
before any test() body did, so every one of those 50 call sites was
silently pointed at the consolidated helper's different phase-matching
logic (parseInt-based, loses dotted decimal sub-phase segments) instead
of the real one (normalizePhaseToken/phaseTokenFromDirName-based),
breaking multi-level decimal phases like 03.2.1.

Fixed by wrapping the consolidated helper in a strict-mode IIFE, which
disables Annex B hoisting and restores real block scoping.

Caught by a genuine gsd-test failure (2 unique failures, both throw-
class, both in phase-completion verification-gate behavior) -- root-
caused via diff against the pre-consolidation commit and a scoped local
node --test run confirming the fix, not asserted from a hunch.

c444051bef test(#3339): fix orthogonal-review findings — Wave 7 fold
Standards/Spec-axis review + Memtrace graph pass found real issues in
the just-folded suites, all fixed here:

- tests/phase.test.cjs: the issue explicitly asked to dedupe overlapping
  fixtures between issue-2945/issue-2949 — the fold preserved both test
  sets correctly (genuinely distinct code paths, 0 tests dropped, already
  verified correct) but left each fold block with its own near-identical
  copy of a runVerifiedPhaseComplete(args, tmpDir) helper, the fixture-
  level dedup the issue actually asked for. Consolidated into one shared
  definition without disturbing the file's other, unrelated same-named
  helper at module scope (would have collided if hoisted directly).
  Removed two now-unused local runGsdTools destructurings left behind by
  the consolidation (both blocks already close over the module-scope
  import at line 26).
- tests/review-lane-descriptor.test.cjs: two .find() results dereferenced
  without a presence guard (same defect class Wave 3/#3335 already found
  and fixed once in this epic) — added assert.ok() guards matching the
  repo's established style.
- tests/model-resolver.test.cjs: documented the 1-of-80 dropped duplicate
  test with an inline comment, matching this same wave's host-integration
  fold's convention of citing drops by exact reference instead of leaving
  a reviewer to reconstruct the justification via git archaeology.

LAST of 4 issue-* waves — closes out the 74-file fix-*/issue-* backlog
(pending BUG_FILE_RE extension, held for a follow-up commit until Wave 6
is confirmed merged, per the epic's own zero-backlog precondition).

- issue-2828-flat-roadmap-total-phases.test.cjs (1) + issue-3204-state-

  cmdPhaseComplete; issue explicitly warned of overlap — verified
  disjoint fixtures/assertions, 0 dropped, merged into phase.test.cjs.

  review-lane-descriptor.test.cjs.
- issue-2939-dispatch-flatten-maxdepth.test.cjs (9) merged into

  fold in the epic) merged into model-resolver.test.cjs, 1 dropped as a
  verified true duplicate (checked against src/model-resolver.cts logic,
  not just title similarity).

Fixed a genuine eslint irregular-whitespace finding: a literal BOM
character embedded in a doc comment (pre-existing content from the
original #2977 source, illustrating what a BOM looks like) — replaced
with a readable U+FEFF notation.

Ratchet upkeep to keep this wave's own gates green: pruned 3 stale
allow-test-rule allowlist entries, cited 2 previously-uncited comments
that surfaced in the folded content (#3338), tightened the exemption-file

* test(#3338): fix orthogonal-review findings — Wave 6 fold

Standards-axis review found a real structural defect in two files, both
the same root cause and both fixed here:

- tests/update-workflow.test.cjs: the folded:issue-815-update-next-channel
  wrapper's closing brace was placed after the file's pre-existing tail
  instead of before it, making the already-established folded:bug-2470
  and folded:bug-3130 wrappers CHILDREN of issue-815's block in the test
  hierarchy instead of independent siblings — confirmed via an actual
  node --test run showing the mislabeled TAP nesting. Moved the closing
  brace to the correct position; all three fold wrappers are now
  top-level siblings again (verified via node --test, TAP hierarchy
  correct, 10/10 tests, 5 suites, identical count before and after).
- tests/plan-phase-drift-guard.test.cjs: same mistake in the other
  direction — folded:issue-2762-plan-reviews-chunked was spliced inside
  the pre-existing folded:bug-2492-context-coverage-gate wrapper instead
  of after it. Fixed the same way (227/227 tests, 38 suites, identical
  count before and after).
- Reverted unnecessary 815-suffixed local renames (assert815/fs815/etc.)
  introduced by the fold — the wrapper is genuinely block-scoped once
  correctly closed, so no collision existed (same class as Wave 4's
  __foldSetNested finding).

No test() count changed in either file. No production code touched.

Second of 4 issue-* waves.

- issue-844-manifest-version-sync.test.cjs (14 tests, rename basis) +

  issue-498-package-identity.test.cjs (17 tests, merged in): both target
  package-identity.cjs's surface from different angles (lint-side drift
  detection vs. derive/slugify), now package-identity.test.cjs, 25 tests,
  0 dropped.
- issue-607-cache-lineage.test.cjs (14 tests) merged into the existing
  gsd-statusline.test.cjs, matching its already-established fold-wrapper
  convention from prior waves.

Learned from Wave 4: fold agents checked src/** (not just docs/ and
gsd-core/references/) for stale filename references — found and fixed 5
across 3 ADR docs (766, 2121, 457), zero in src/ this time.

Zero net test-coverage loss. No production code changed.

* test(#3337): fix orthogonal-review findings — Wave 5 fold

Standards-axis review found real issues in the just-folded
manifest-version-sync.test.cjs, both fixed here:

- The folded:issue-1855-marketplace-manifest block omitted its own
  test/describe/assert/fs/path/os requires, silently closing over the
  #844 basis section's outer-scope bindings instead of declaring its own
  dependencies — inconsistent with every other fold block in this wave.
  Restored the local requires the original issue-1855 file declared.
- Merging two independently-lettered legacy files (each A-F) left
  duplicate top-level describe() labels (two "A:", two "B:", two "C:").
  Renamed the folded-in #1855 labels (A2/B4/C2) to make every top-level
  label in the file unique.

No test() count changed (31). No production code touched.

Scan candidate table headers and pick the first VALID table (delimiter +
matching column count) whose columns include the requested column. Single-table
behaviour is byte-identical (the one table carries the column). Error semantics
preserved: no table -> 'no table found'; valid table without the column ->
'unknown column'; lone malformed table keeps its specific reason. Also fixes the
derived hasRow/doneTable reasoning, which probes via the same call.

ad07f76a31 test(#3336): fold the installer & runtime surface issue-* cluster — Wave 4 (#3376)
* test(#3336): fold the installer & runtime surface issue-* cluster — Wave 4

Folds 10 legacy issue-*.test.cjs regression files (79 test() blocks) into
their module's main suite, per H3 (#3315) of the test-hygiene epic (#3053).
First of 4 issue-* waves (following the 3 fix-* waves, all merged).

- 1 file with no prior target coverage: renamed (git mv) into
  legacy-cleanup.test.cjs (sole comprehensive suite for that module).
- 9 files merged into 6 pre-existing suites: golden-parity-single-source,
  runtime-artifact-layout-surface, codex-config (4 sources merged jointly
  in one pass per the issue's own instruction, to catch overlap between the
  4 sources themselves, not just against the pre-existing target — zero
  overlap found, all 20 blocks additive), runtime-config-adapter-registry
  (1 of 10 source blocks dropped as a proven subset of existing coverage),
  cline-install, install.test.cjs.

Incidental fixes required to keep this wave's own ratchets green:
- Fixed a stale ADR doc reference (docs/adr/1235) to a folded-away filename.
- scripts/lint-allow-test-rule-refs: pruned 4 stale allowlist entries for
  renamed/merged-away files, cited 2 previously-uncited allow-test-rule
  comments that surfaced as "new" only because their file path changed,
  added 1 fresh allowlist entry for a pre-existing uncited comment that
  predates this PR, and tightened the exemption-file ceiling 309 -> 305
  to match the real post-fold high-water mark.

Zero net test-coverage loss. No production code changed.

* test(#3336): fix orthogonal-review findings — Wave 4 fold

Standards-axis review + Memtrace graph pass found real issues in the
just-folded suites, all fixed here:

- Standardized the fold-wrapper convention (block-scoped __foldDescribe)
  across golden-parity-single-source.test.cjs, runtime-artifact-layout-
  surface.test.cjs, runtime-config-adapter-registry.test.cjs, and
  cline-install.test.cjs to match the pattern already used by
  codex-config.test.cjs and install.test.cjs in this same wave (and by
  earlier folds elsewhere in the epic) — repeats the exact inconsistency
  Wave 3 (#3335) already fixed once in this epic.
- Fixed a stale allowlist entry's alphabetical position (cosmetic, not
  tool-gated, caught by review anyway).
- Fixed two stale test-filename references in PRODUCTION code comments
  (src/capability-writer.cts, src/runtime-config-adapter-registry.cts)
  caught by lint-removed-but-needed — a class of stale reference this
  wave's fold agents didn't check for, since they were scoped to docs/
  and gsd-core/references/ only, not src/. First fix attempt wrongly
  edited the gitignored gsd-core/bin/lib/*.cjs BUILD OUTPUT instead of
  the tracked .cts source; caught and corrected before commit.
- Fixed one remaining stale doc reference in docs/adr/1235 (a prior
  partial fix in this same wave missed it).

No test() count changed in any file. No production code BEHAVIOR
changed — comment-only fixes in src/.

23e6d49929 fix(#3233): no-op state update-progress when the milestone scan finds zero plans (#3375)
* test(#3233): zero plans (0/0) is a no-op; plans-but-none-done still writes 0%

cmdStateUpdateProgress mapped 0/0 through clampPercent to 0% and rewrote the
shipped Progress record after milestone close. Replace the stale 'handles zero
plans gracefully' test (which asserted the buggy percent:0) with a #3233 no-op
regression (100% record preserved, updated:false), and add a negative-space
guard: plans exist but none done must still write a legitimate 0%.

RED — fails on next; fix follows.

* fix(#3233): no-op state update-progress when the milestone scan finds zero plans

cmdStateUpdateProgress mapped 0/0 through clampPercent to 0% and unconditionally
rewrote the body Progress line, so after /gsd-complete-milestone archived the
phases (.planning/phases/ empty, scope COMPLETE) a routine update-progress run
destroyed the shipped record ([██████████] 100% → [░░░░░░░░░░] 0%).

Add an early-return no-op when totalPlans === 0 — mirroring the established
scope-withholding no-op (stderr WARNING + {updated:false, reason}) and
computeProgressPercent's null-for-empty contract ('nothing to measure' ≠ '0%
done'). The legitimate 0% case (plans exist, none summarized) is unaffected:
totalPlans > 0 reaches clampPercent(0, N>0) = 0 and writes 0% as before.

* test(#3233): unshadow 'Progress field missing' — clear the zero-plans guard

The new totalPlans===0 no-op guard fires before the 'Progress field not found'
branch, so the existing 'returns error when Progress field missing' test (no
phase dirs → 0 plans) was passing for the wrong reason and that branch lost
coverage. Give that test a phase dir + PLAN so totalPlans > 0 clears the guard
and it reaches the branch it is named for. (Isolated review finding.)

* test(#3335): fold the workflow-content & phase-lifecycle fix-* cluster — Wave 3

Folds 13 legacy fix-*.test.cjs regression files (131 test() blocks) into
their module's main suite, per H3 (#3315) of the test-hygiene epic (#3053):

- 6 files with no prior target coverage: renamed (git mv) into new suites

- 7 files merged into 5 pre-existing suites (worktree-base-ref x2,

Zero net test-coverage loss: every source assertion preserved or verified
as a genuine pre-existing duplicate. No production code changed.

Last fix-* wave (Wave 1 #3341, Wave 2 #3342 already merged); 4 issue-*
waves remain in #3315.

Standards-axis review + Memtrace graph pass found real defects in the

- phase-locator.test.cjs: pinned an unseeded fast-check property test
  (CONTRIBUTING.md determinism requirement), matching the sibling test's
  seed:7 convention.
- phase-locator.test.cjs: added assert.ok() presence guards after 9
  data.plans.find() calls that were dereferenced unguarded, inconsistent
  with 5 sibling tests in the same file that already guard correctly.
  Latent robustness gap — an omitted plan would throw an opaque TypeError
  instead of a clear assertion failure.
- Standardized the fold-wrapper convention (block-scoped __foldDescribe)
  across worktree-base-ref.test.cjs, verification-status.test.cjs, and
  phase-locator.test.cjs to match the pattern already established in
  frontmatter.test.cjs and model-resolver.test.cjs from earlier folds.
- worktree-base-ref.test.cjs: moved a mid-file require to the top-of-file
  require block.
- Eliminated duplicated env-isolation helpers: model-resolver.test.cjs and
  phase-locator.test.cjs each reimplemented GSD_WORKSTREAM/GSD_PROJECT
  save-restore independently; factored a shared isolateWorkstreamEnv()/
  restoreWorkstreamEnv() into tests/helpers.cjs and pointed both call
  sites at it.

No test() count changed in any file. No production code touched.

* test(#3225): sentinel phase dirs no longer trigger W007 / consistency warnings / gaps

The W006/W007 (validate health) and the parallel consistency disk↔roadmap and
gap-numbering loops never got the isSentinelPhaseId guard that phase.cts has
(#2786/#2949), so every sentinel phase dir (999.x/0.x — never-on-roadmap by
convention) produced a spurious W007 and a spurious 'Gap in phase numbering:
N → 999'. Add failing-first regressions for both surfaces + the gap check, each
with a non-sentinel orphan negative-space guard.

RED — fails on next; fix follows.

* fix(#3225): guard W006/W007 + consistency + gap loops with isSentinelPhaseId

cmdValidateHealth's W006/W007 loops, cmdValidateConsistency's parallel disk↔
roadmap loops, AND its gap-numbering check never got the isSentinelPhaseId guard
that phase.cts has at 10+ sites (#2786/#2949). So any repo using the sentinel-id
convention (999.x backlog/interim, 0.x drafts) got a permanent spurious W007 and
a spurious 'Gap in phase numbering: N → 999', with advice to add-to-roadmap
(violates the convention) or delete (destroys archived work).

Add isSentinelPhaseId to the phaseIdMod destructure and skip sentinel ids in:
W006 + W007 (cmdValidateHealth); the two plain-warning disk↔roadmap loops and
the gap-numbering integerPhases filter (cmdValidateConsistency — same bug family,
folded in inline per no-silent-defer). Additive only: non-sentinel orphans and
real numbering gaps still warn. The gap-numbering guard was surfaced by the
isolated review (a 999-interim dir would otherwise create a false 'N → 999' gap).
Same family as #3167 (since fixed).

* test(#3224): assert WINDOWS.md is a canonical .planning/ artifact

The broken-windows ledger (.planning/WINDOWS.md, written by gsd-core's own
windows command) was absent from CANONICAL_EXACT, so validate health flagged
it W019 'Unrecognized' with advice to delete a file that can gate /gsd-ship.
Add WINDOWS.md to the expected-canonical list + a dedicated predicate test.

RED — fails on next; fix follows.

* fix(#3224): register WINDOWS.md as a canonical .planning/ artifact

CANONICAL_EXACT (src/artifacts.cts) was never updated when the broken-windows
capability (#1950/#2441) started writing .planning/WINDOWS.md. validate health
therefore flagged the ledger W019 'Unrecognized' with fix advice to archive or
delete it — a file gsd-core itself produces (src/broken-windows.cts,
LEDGER_FILE_NAME) and that can gate /gsd-ship under workflow.windows_enforce.

Add WINDOWS.md to CANONICAL_EXACT, per the registry header's own maintenance
mandate ('Add entries here whenever a new workflow produces a .planning/ root
file'). isCanonicalPlanningFile now returns true for it, suppressing the false
W019. Existing W019 behavior for genuinely-unrecognized files is unchanged.

bfd749cb9a fix(#3213): segment-boundary membership for letter-named phase dirs (#3368)
* test(#3213): add letter-named phase regression for getMilestonePhaseFilter

The custom-ID branch's greedy capture excluded every letter-named phase
directory (Phase A:..Phase L:) from the milestone, fabricating counts.
Add two failing-first regression tests: a single letter phase + numeric
control, and the full A..L + 00 tree from the issue's reproduction.

RED — fails on next; fix follows in a separate fix: commit.

* fix(#3213): segment-boundary membership for letter-named phase dirs

The custom-ID branch of isDirInMilestone (getMilestonePhaseFilter) used a
greedy capture ^([A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9]*(?:-[A-Za-z0-9]+)*) that swallowed the
whole hyphenated directory name (A-tool-output-contract was captured as
'A-tool-output-contract', not 'A'). The set lookup then failed and every
letter-named phase directory (Phase A:..Phase L: — GSD's own convention,
ADR-612 first-class non-numeric IDs) fell out of the milestone, silently
fabricating progress/plan counts over whatever numeric dir survived.

Replace the capture-then-lookup with a segment-boundary membership test: a
directory belongs if its lowercased name EQUALS a declared phase ID or BEGINS
with that ID followed by '-' (so 'A-tool-output-contract' matches ID 'a';
'PROJ-42-description' matches ID 'proj-42'; 'AB-combined' does NOT match
'a'). IDs are sorted longest-first so a hyphenated id (proj-42) is tested
before a prefix of it (proj). Additive only — numericRe still handles every
leading-digit dir first, and this can only ADMIT a dir the greedy capture
wrongly excluded, never exclude one already matched.

e7993d77bf fix(#3207): create-and-switch on the first phase/milestone commit (#3363)
* test(#3207): invert fresh-create branching tests to expect create+switch

The four fresh-create branching tests (#3079) locked in create-without-
switch behavior that #3207 identifies as the regression: a fresh phase/
milestone branch is created but HEAD never moves onto it, so the first
phase/milestone-scoped commit lands on the base branch. Invert those
assertions to expect create+switch, and add two new tests:
- fresh-create is non-silent (logs the create+switch) (#3207 AC3)
- a second phase commit does not re-warn once HEAD is on the phase branch (#3207 AC5)

The existing-branch path (#2539) is deliberately byte-for-byte unchanged.

RED — fails on next; the fix follows in a separate fix: commit.

* fix(#3207): create-and-switch on the first phase/milestone commit

The #3079 fix (PR #3141) replaced git checkout -b with git branch
(create-only) unconditionally, including the case where the strategy
branch does not yet exist. That regressed #1278: the first phase- or
milestone-scoped commit no longer landed on the strategy branch — it
stayed on the base branch, and the strategy branch was left as an empty
marker pointing at the pre-phase tip. Every subsequent commit then
warned 'already exists; committing on the current branch instead of
switching', wording that misleads because the tool itself created the
branch moments before.

Re-separate the two cases #3079 collapsed:
- branch does NOT exist -> create AND switch (git checkout -b). The
  #3079 resurrection hazard cannot apply: the branch was just verified
  absent, so there is no merged-and-deleted ref to resurrect and no
  silent move onto an existing unrelated branch (#2539 AC2 is honored
  by the existing-branch arm, which is unchanged). The create is logged
  so the first phase-scoped commit is not silent (#3207 AC3).
- branch ALREADY exists -> unchanged: no switch, commit on current
  branch, non-silent warning (#2539/#3079).

Once the first commit switches HEAD onto the strategy branch, the
currentBranch !== branchName guard skips the block on subsequent
commits, so the misleading 'already exists' warning no longer recurs.

0396d9cab1 enhance(#2483): stop the claude reviewer lane from inheriting CLAUDE.md + auto-memory (#2493)
* enhance(#2483): env-guard the claude reviewer leg against CLAUDE.md injection

The claude reviewer in workflows/review.md was a bare headless `claude -p`
spawn run from the project cwd, so it inherited the invoking user's global
CLAUDE.md, the project CLAUDE.md, and Claude Code auto-memory.

That made it the only reviewer leg seeing anything beyond the prompt file.
gather_context assembles PROJECT.md, the roadmap section, every PLAN file,
CONTEXT.md, RESEARCH.md and REQUIREMENTS.md into the prompt before any
reviewer runs; the gemini leg receives only that prompt and the codex leg
runs --ephemeral. Beyond the measured ~4k tokens/spawn, the asymmetry cuts
at the workflow's own premise: "independent review" meant something
different for the claude leg than for the other two.

Guard both dispatch lines with a per-invocation
`env CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_CLAUDE_MDS=1`. `env`, never `export` — the flag
must not leak into the orchestrating session (which may itself be Claude
Code on the SELF_CLI="auto" path) or into any later spawn.

review.md is the only claude -p call site in the installed tree, so this is
two lines on one surface. The self-skip logic is untouched.

* enhance(#2483): fix CRLF-fragile split and regenerate workflow baselines

Two CI failures from the first push, both mine:

1. lint-tests: the new regression test split readFileSync content on a
   literal "\n". On a Windows git-autocrlf checkout that leaves a trailing
   "\r" on every line (local/no-crlf-fragile-split). Use .split(/\r?\n/).

2. golden-install-parity / workflow-size-budget / workflow-compat: editing
   gsd-core/workflows/review.md changes its content hash and byte size, and
   both are pinned in committed baselines. Regenerated via the repo's own
   generators (npm run size:baseline, npm run gen:golden).

The regenerated diffs are review.md-only: exactly one hash line per
golden-install-parity fixture and one size entry in workflow-size-baseline
— no unrelated drift swept in.

Full suite now green locally: 2113 pass, 0 fail, 3 skipped (run with HOME
and CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR overridden to throwaway dirs; live profile verified
untouched afterward).

* enhance(#2483): adapt guard-test matcher to the effort-args dispatch reshape

The effortSurface wiring (#2481) reshaped the bare-model dispatch to
`claude $CLAUDE_EFFORT_ARGS -p -`; the invocation matcher's dash-first
form could no longer see it, and the count assertion failed exactly as
designed. The matcher now tolerates variable expansions between `claude`
and its first literal flag. Negative-controlled both ways: a stripped
guard and a deleted dispatch line each still fail.

* enhance(#2483): also guard the claude leg against auto-memory injection

CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_CLAUDE_MDS suppresses CLAUDE.md file loading;
auto-memory is an independently-toggled mechanism with its own flag.
Add CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_AUTO_MEMORY=1 to both dispatch lines, correct
the docs/COMMANDS.md and changeset claims that credited the first flag
with covering auto-memory, and extend the regression test to require
both flags on every claude invocation (negative-controlled: 2/4
assertions fail with the new flag removed).

* enhance(#2483): match the claude binary in command position, not argument position

The line-oriented invocation matcher counted any line where the token
`claude` was followed by a flag. #2589 (landed on next as 920a5f3f)
reshaped the effort-args lookup from

  --host claude 2>/dev/null | jq -r '.effort_argv_string // ""'

to

  --host claude --pick effort_argv_string

which put a flag immediately after `claude` and made the config query
read as a third claude dispatch, failing the count assertion.

The defect class is a binary name in *argument* position being read as a
command. Fixed at the class rather than the instance: tokenise the line
and skip any `claude` whose preceding token is a flag. That also covers
the latent sibling one line away in review.md (`command -v claude`),
which escaped today only because its next token is a redirect.

Negative-controlled four ways: stripping CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_AUTO_MEMORY=1
fails, stripping the whole env guard fails, adding a genuine third
unguarded dispatch (`timeout 900 claude --output-format text -p -`) still
fails — so the narrowing did not blind the matcher to reshapes, which is
the property the count assertion exists for — and the pre-#2589 jq form of
the lookup still passes, so the matcher is not pinned to today's base.

* enhance(#2483): carry the claude reviewer's memory guard as declared lane data

ADR-2782 Phase 5b replaced the hand-authored per-CLI dispatch legs in
review.md with the declared lane table, so the two `env`-prefixed shell
lines this PR previously added no longer have a surface to live on. The
guard is reimplemented where the lane contract now lives.

`SpawnInvoke` gains an optional `env`, the claude lane declares the pair,
the resolver folds own string-valued entries into `SpawnPlan.env` (absent
or empty resolves to null, so the runner has one shape to test), and the
runner passes it to spawn. Production merges it OVER `process.env` into a
fresh object for that one child, so nothing reaches the orchestrating
session or any other lane in the run.

Declared data rather than a handler (D6): the pairs are static per lane,
which is precisely what the manifest vocabulary is for. The capability
manifest carries the same field, because the lane-fidelity test compares
manifest and descriptor over the union of `invoke`'s keys.

The regression test is rewritten against the resolver and runner rather
than review.md's text. It gains the property the source-text assertions
could only approximate: that `process.env` is never mutated.

Scope boundary, asserted rather than left in prose: `env` is not part of
the trust-disclosure surface, which is safe only while no manifest body
reaches the resolver — the registry's reviewer bodies contribute slugs to
the parity check and execution resolves from `REVIEWER_LANES`. The new
test fails first if that ever changes.

* enhance(#2483): restate the guard's mechanism in the docs and changeset

Both described the fix as two `env`-prefixed dispatch lines, which is the
surface ADR-2782 Phase 5b removed. The user-visible behaviour is
unchanged; the carrier is not, and a changeset that ships a description
of a mechanism the tree does not have is a CHANGELOG entry nobody can
verify against the code.

* enhance(#2483): cover the production spawn wiring end to end

The unit tests stop at the runner's `deps.spawn` seam — every one injects
a spy. Production supplies that seam in `gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs` as a
hand-written object no test constructs, so the chain could be correct all
the way to `SpawnPlan.env` and the merge could still be wrong or absent
with the suite green. Deleting those four lines was the one mutation that
left every other control silent.

This runs the real `spawnSync` through `gsd-tools review-lane invoke`,
with a `claude` shim on PATH that records the environment it was handed.
It asserts both halves in one test: the pair arrives, and an unrelated
inherited variable survives — a wiring that REPLACED the environment
rather than merging over it would satisfy the first and break every
lane's PATH and HOME.

POSIX-only; mediating a Windows `.cmd` shim is a separate concern the
repo already tests on its own.

Noted rather than fixed: `timeout`, `killSignal`, `maxBuffer` and
`shell: false` on that same object are equally uncovered. That is the
epic's gap, not this change's, and closing it is not in scope here.

* enhance(#2483): validate the invoke.env shape and register it as spawn-only

`env` was the one spawn-invoke field with no shape enforcement: every sibling in
`validateSpawnInvoke` is checked, and a manifest declaring `env` as an array, a
string, a number, or an object with non-string values passed validation in
silence. That matters more than an ordinary schema gap here, because
`resolveLanePlan` DROPS a non-string value rather than coercing it — so an
unvalidated manifest declares a pair that never reaches the spawn, which is the
failure a memory guard can least afford.

Two registrations, not one. `env` was also absent from
`SPAWN_ONLY_INVOKE_FIELDS`, which is the list the openai-http arm rejects
against — so `invoke.env` was accepted on a transport that issues an HTTP POST
and has no child environment at all. It was the only spawn-shaped field accepted
there; the other six each produce two errors. Self-found while sweeping the
class, not raised in review.

Keys are held to the portable POSIX environment-name grammar. That is a policy,
not a claim about what an environment can hold: measured, only NUL is actually
rejected by `spawnSync`, while `=`, a leading digit, a dash and a space are all
carried through to the child (an `A=B` key arrives as the raw entry `A=B=value`).
They are refused because a name outside the grammar is not portably addressable
by the program meant to read it.

`__proto__` is refused for a different and concrete reason. It passes that
grammar and is a real own key once a manifest is JSON-parsed, but assigning it
onto a plain accumulator goes through the inherited `__proto__` setter rather
than creating an own property — and for the string values this field permits the
setter is a no-op that does not even change the prototype. The pair would
validate and then simply vanish before the spawn. (An environment CAN carry a
literal `__proto__` entry; this is about the resolver's accumulator, and the
error message says so.)

Deliberately narrower than the sibling reserved-name guards in this file, which
also reject `constructor`/`prototype`: those guard bracket lookups that resolve
prototype members, whereas this reads via `Object.keys` plus an own-value read,
where `constructor` assigns as an ordinary key the spawn could carry.

`effortChannel` is deliberately left in neither field list: ADR-2782 D2 defines
it for both transports, so it is shared rather than spawn-only.

Reversion-controlled, three mutations, all three fire a named test: dropping
`env` from the discriminator fails `httpTransportRejectsEnv`; removing the
`__proto__` arm fails `envRejectsProtoKeyThatWouldSilentlyVanish`; disabling
the block fails four.

(#2483)

* enhance(#2483): amend ADR-2782 D2 for the invoke.env vocabulary widening

D2 records the spawn `invoke` shape as a closed vocabulary, and its Amendments
section carries a dated entry for every prior widening (Phase 1 #2794, Phase 2
corrections #2795, Phase 5b #2799). This change extended that vocabulary in code
without touching the ADR governing it, so the ADR contradicted the
implementation — and the repo's own convention, recorded in CONTEXT.md, is that
the ADR is amended in the same PR precisely because the prior widenings did it
correctly.

Adds the `invoke.env` row to the D2 table and a dated Amendments entry.

The entry also corrects the authority this change cited. The source comment
pointed at D6, which governs the closed `handler` enum — imperative behavior
admitted first-party — and says nothing about the `invoke` field vocabulary.
That is D2's territory, so the citation never covered the gap.

Two claims are corrected rather than restated, both about the trust boundary
that justifies leaving `env` out of the D5 disclosure signature:

- The regression test does not enforce that boundary. On one forged lane it
  shows the resolver folds whatever it is handed, so a future path feeding it
  manifest lanes would not make any assertion in that test fail. Its comment
  claimed it "will fail first"; that was wrong, and both the comment and the
  ADR now say the boundary is a property of the production call chain instead.
- The ADR is internally inconsistent on whether third-party manifest lanes
  execute at all: Consequences says adding a reviewer needs "no core patch",
  while `gsd-tools.cjs` rejects every slug absent from the first-party
  REVIEWER_LANES map. CONTEXT.md, `workflows/review.md` and the resolver's own
  header take the first view. #2483 did not create that inconsistency and does
  not resolve it; the entry records it rather than settling it in its own favour.

(#2483)

* enhance(#2483): document invoke.env in the capability-manifest reference

ADR-2782 points capability and plugin authors at
`docs/reference/capability-manifest.md` as where the lane vocabulary must be
visible, and its `invoke` row enumerates the spawn sub-shape field by field.
`env` was absent from that table while being part of the real shape, so the one
document a third-party capability author would actually consult to learn the
field exists did not mention it.

Squarely Diataxis reference material — a field-by-field schema description — so
it goes here rather than in the user-facing prose, which was already updated.
States the constraints a manifest author can actually trip, and is explicit that
the name grammar is a portability policy rather than an OS limit, so a reader
does not take it for a claim about what an environment can hold.

(#2483)

* enhance(#2483): disclose and sign the reviewer lane's env and residual invoke fields

`invoke.env` was undisclosed at install time. That was defensible while manifest
lanes could not execute — the premise this PR's own ADR amendment recorded — and
#2927/#3062 retired it: `routeReviewLane` now merges installed overlay `reviewer`
bodies into its lane map via `mergeReviewerLanes`, which is a field-identical merge
by ADR-2782 D1 and deliberately does not deep-validate. An overlay's whole `invoke`
therefore reaches `resolveLanePlan`, and `env` reaches the spawned child. A consented
third-party capability could set `NODE_OPTIONS=--require ./evil.js` on a reviewer lane
with no install-time disclosure and no re-consent.

The same file already decided what `env` means in a manifest: MCP servers fold it into
the disclosure signature and render each key and value in the consent prompt, with an
inline rationale naming this exact shape. Reviewer lanes get the identical treatment.

`env` was the ninth unsigned invoke field, not the first. `defaultHost` (the manifest's
OWN fallback egress host, used whenever the config key resolves to nothing),
`path`, `outputChannel`/`outputArg`, `modelArg`, `effortChannel` and `modelDiscovery`
all reach `resolveLanePlan` and none was bound. Enumerating a ninth name leaves the
tenth open, so the lane signature carries a RESIDUAL of every other declared `invoke`
key — the completeness backstop `rawConfig` already gives the MCP line (#1459 finding 5),
and the "sign the whole object" remedy the recorded decision on this class prefers.

`defaultHost` is also rendered: `resolvedHost` comes from user config, so a lane whose
key is unset displayed "(unresolved …)" — which reads as "no destination" — while the
runtime egresses the plan and review text to the address the manifest picked.

D4.5 is preserved one level down: the extra element is appended ONLY when the lane
declares something beyond the eight already-bound fields, so an env-free lane's
signature stays byte-identical and no already-consented capability is re-prompted for
a field it does not use. A lane that does declare one re-consents, which is the point.

Execution-primitive env names are FLAGGED in the prompt, not refused in the validator.
A denylist cannot be the boundary here: `PATH` alone is a complete execution primitive
for a spawn lane and can never be refused, the child is an arbitrary third-party binary
so the true set spans every interpreter's injection vars, and the MCP `env` this mirrors
refuses nothing and discloses everything. Missing a name costs a quieter line, never a
boundary.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): exercise the real overlay merge path in the guard test

The test named for the manifest/first-party boundary did not test it. It built a
forged lane locally, handed it straight to `resolveLanePlan`, and asserted that
`REVIEWER_LANES` did not contain it — so no assertion in it depended on the claim its
name made, and a code path that fed manifest lanes to the resolver would not have made
it fail. Its own comment said as much, and named the production chain as the real
carrier of the guarantee: "gsd-tools.cjs builds its lane map solely from REVIEWER_LANES".

That sentence is now false. #3062 merged overlay reviewer bodies into that map, so the
test's premise and its subject both moved.

The replacement routes through `mergeReviewerLanes` — the real helper the production
path calls — and asserts the overlay lane is admitted, resolves, and carries its `env`
into `SpawnPlan.env`. That makes the security property falsifiable instead of narrated.
It then asserts what now backs it: the env is disclosed on the surface, rendered key
and value in the consent prompt, flagged when the name is an execution primitive, and
bound to the signature so a value change, an addition, or a removal each force
re-consent.

Three further cases, because the finding's generative half is what stops it recurring:
the residual backstop is asserted against five fields including one that does not exist
(`aFieldThatDoesNotExistYet`), so a future vocabulary widening cannot silently re-open
this; a fully-enumerated lane is pinned to its original 8-tuple, which is what keeps the
fix from re-prompting every consented capability; and an http lane's manifest-declared
`defaultHost` is asserted to reach both the prompt and the signature.

Reversion-controlled, seven mutations, all seven fail a named test: env dropped from the
surface, the prompt's env line removed, the execution-primitive warning removed, the
signature's extra element never appended, the residual emptied, the defaultHost line
removed, and the declares-something test un-widened. The last of those was SILENT on its
first run and its test was written in response, then the control re-run.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): correct the ADR amendment's manifest-lane premise

The amendment argued `env` needed no D5 disclosure because a manifest's `invoke`
fields never reach `resolveLanePlan`. That was true when written and #3062 retired it
22 hours after this branch's last commit: `routeReviewLane` now builds its lane map
from `mergeReviewerLanes(REVIEWER_LANES, loadRegistry({includeInstalled: true}))`, and
D1's no-translation-layer rule makes that a field-identical merge, so an overlay's
whole `invoke` reaches the resolver and executes.

The entry had named this exact trigger — "were manifest lanes ever made executable,
`env` must join the disclosed surface in that change, and nothing here will trip if it
does not." Nothing tripped. The premise is rewritten to current truth rather than
annotated, because an ADR is read in fragments and a superseded paragraph left standing
reads as live reasoning to the next author; a one-line dated tombstone points at git for
the withdrawn text.

The rewritten entry records four things the first draft could not: that the enumeration
itself was the defect (`env` was the ninth unbound `invoke` field, and `defaultHost` and
`path` are egress-relevant on their own), that the residual is what closes the class,
that D4.5's byte-identical-signature property is preserved by appending the residual only
when a lane declares something beyond the eight bound fields, and that consent — not
shape validation — is the boundary, since no honest env denylist can exclude `PATH`.

It also closes the internal inconsistency the previous entry could only record. This ADR,
`CONTEXT.md`, `gsd-core/workflows/review.md` and `resolveLanePlan`'s own header all said
overlay lanes reach the resolver while the runtime said otherwise; #3062 resolved that in
the documents' favour, which is what makes the disclosure mandatory rather than defensive.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): record in the manifest reference that invoke fields are consent-bound

`docs/reference/capability-manifest.md` is the field table ADR-2782 points capability
authors at, and it described `invoke` purely as a schema. A third-party author reading it
could not learn that everything they declare there is shown to the user at install and
bound to the consent signature — which is exactly what they need to know now that an
overlay reviewer lane executes (#2927/#3062).

States the two things the schema alone cannot: that `env` and `defaultHost` are named in
the consent prompt and the rest is covered by a residual, so any change to a declared
`invoke` field forces re-consent; and that `env`'s validation is a portability policy
rather than a safety boundary, since `PATH` is a complete execution primitive and cannot
be refused. Names that are execution primitives are highlighted in the prompt instead.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): add a Security changeset for the reviewer-lane disclosure

The existing fragment describes the enhancement this PR was opened for and stays as it
is. The disclosure fix is a separate user-visible change of a different type: a
capability declaring `invoke.env` or `invoke.defaultHost` will ask for consent once
more, and users are entitled to read why in the changelog rather than discover it as an
unexplained prompt.

Type is `Security` rather than `Changed` because the entry describes a closed
code-execution disclosure gap, not a behaviour adjustment.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): correct this round's own claim about who gets re-prompted

Self-found while auditing the round's claims before publishing them. The changeset and
the ADR entry both stated that a capability declaring `invoke.env` or `defaultHost`
"will ask for consent once more". That is wrong, and it overstated the cost of the fix
in the one direction a maintainer would have had to take on trust.

A code change to `disclosureSignature` re-prompts nobody. `hasProjectConsent` matches on
the recomputed bundle `contentHash` — the signature has not been the security binding
since #1459 CB-1/CB-2 — and the upgrade path's `executableSetChanged(old, new)` compares
two disclosures both computed by the CURRENT code, so widening the signature moves both
sides of that comparison equally. First-party capabilities never reach the path at all:
the install flow blocks a first-party id before trust evaluation.

What the widening actually buys is forward-looking, and is the real argument for it: an
upgrade whose manifest edits a declared `invoke` field now registers as an
executable-surface change and re-consents, where before it could change what the lane
runs in silence.

Also measured and recorded, because the D4.5 property was stated more strongly than it
deserved: of the twelve first-party reviewer capabilities, ZERO are in the
byte-identical-signature class — every real lane declares at least `effortChannel`. The
property is a guarantee about minimal lanes, not a description of the fleet, and the ADR
now says so.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): sign and disclose the probe binary and the lane's outer fields

Found by this round's own adversarial review, and it is the same defect one level out:
the `invoke` residual cannot reach the lane body's OUTER fields, and `probeLane` SPAWNS
`probe.binary` with `--help` before dispatch (`review-lane-runner.cts`, the
`command-exists`/`command-capability` arms). An overlay naming an arbitrary probe binary
therefore executes it — unsigned and undisclosed, exactly as `invoke.env` was, and
reachable on the same #3062 path.

The lane element now carries a second residual over the outer fields, and the probe
binary is shown in the consent prompt when it differs from the dispatch binary — it is a
program that runs, and the user is entitled to see it.

TWO fields stay excluded, and that is a decision rather than an omission:
`reviewsSection` and `timeoutFloorMs` are ADR-2782's cosmetic carve-outs (matrix
A10/A13), where re-consenting would present a prompt carrying no security information.
A test pins that they remain excluded, so a later widening cannot quietly reverse D4.5
while claiming to complete this fix.

Also corrects a miscount introduced by the previous commit: the source comment said the
enumeration had fallen behind by "seven fields" and omitted `fallbackModel`, while
asserting `env` was the ninth. `resolveLanePlan` reads twelve `inv.*` fields and four
were bound, so the number is eight. The comment now states the derivation rather than
just the total.

Reversion-controlled: emptying the outer residual fails "repointing the probe binary must
force re-consent"; removing the render line fails its own named assertion.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): refuse execution-primitive env names as defence in depth

Adopts the review's B5 after this round's own adversarial pass refuted my reason for
declining it. I had argued a denylist was worthless because `PATH` can never be refused.
That was wrong on the facts: no shipped reviewer manifest declares `PATH`, so it can be
refused, and it is the most complete primitive in the set — repoint it at a directory
holding a fake binary and the declared `invoke.binary` is irrelevant. A list that cannot
be exhaustive can still close the highest-confidence, lowest-legitimacy routes.

So the validator now rejects `PATH`, `NODE_OPTIONS`, `LD_PRELOAD`, `DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES`,
`BASH_ENV`, `PYTHONPATH`, `PERL5OPT`, `RUBYOPT`, `GIT_SSH_COMMAND`, `JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS`
and their siblings on a reviewer lane. A lane needing a specific executable declares an
absolute `invoke.binary` instead of reshaping the child's environment.

The comment states plainly that this is defence in depth and NOT the boundary — the
boundary is install-time consent, which discloses every declared pair and binds it to the
signature, so an unlisted name is still SEEN before it runs. That framing is load-bearing:
a future reader who mistakes the denylist for the control will under-invest in the one
that is, which is the failure mode I was trying to avoid by declining it outright.

Two tests: the rejection itself across ten names, and a guard asserting no shipped
reviewer capability declares a denied key — so if the list ever outgrows its evidence,
that surfaces as a decision rather than a silent removal.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): fix two stale D5 enumerations elsewhere in the ADR

The previous commit rewrote the amendment's premise but swept only the amendment. Two
normative passages earlier in the same ADR still enumerated the old closed field list and
now contradicted it: the `executableSetChanged` trigger list, and the split-binding note
asserting the seven manifest-derived fields were "everything that is SHA-pinned".

That is the failure the rewrite-don't-annotate rule exists to prevent, one section over —
an ADR is read in fragments, and a fragment carries no supersession marker, so a reader
landing on either passage would have taken the superseded enumeration as current.

Both now name the residual as the mechanism rather than restating a list, which is also
what stops them going stale the next time the vocabulary widens.

Found by this round's adversarial review, which grepped the whole document rather than
the section under edit.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): stop the probe disclosure claiming a spawn that does not happen

The probe line added one commit ago rendered "probes by running: <binary> --help" for
every lane. That is false for `kind: "command-exists"`, which only calls `hasBinary` — a
PATH/filesystem scan that starts no process. Only `command-capability` spawns.

A false statement in a consent prompt is worse than a missing one: the prompt is the
surface a user is asked to trust, and this one overstated what a lane does. Worse, the
test I wrote to prove the fix used `command-exists` — the kind that does NOT spawn — so
it pinned the wrong claim and would have kept the error green forever.

The surface now carries `probeKind` and the two kinds render differently: a spawn is
described as a spawn, a presence check as a presence check. The test exercises both, and
asserts the `command-exists` path never emits the spawn wording.

Also corrects the field-count parenthetical to state its derivation unambiguously —
`resolveLanePlan` reads thirteen `inv.*` fields including `env` (twelve before this PR),
four were bound, so eight were unbound before `env` and nine including it. The bare
"twelve" was true only of the pre-PR tree and read as a claim about the current one.

And retires two comments that argued AGAINST the validator denylist this round then
shipped. Leaving them would have handed the next reader the reasoning for removing it.

Reversion-controlled: conflating the two probe kinds fails a named test.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): match the reviewer-lane env denylist case-insensitively

The denylist added one commit ago compared exact case, so `Path`, `path`, `node_options`
and `Node_Options` all passed it. Windows environment lookup is case-insensitive, so
those reach the child as `PATH` and `NODE_OPTIONS` — the exact inputs the list names.

An exactly-cased denylist is worse than none: it reads as a control while admitting the
input it was written to refuse, and the next reader has no reason to doubt it. Members
are stored uppercase and the key is folded before lookup; the name grammar already
constrains keys to ASCII, so a plain fold is sufficient.

Reversion-controlled: restoring the exact-case compare fails `envDenylistIsCaseInsensitive`
on `Path`.

Refs #2483.

* enhance(#2483): correct the docs that still described the denylist as absent

Both the ADR and the manifest reference still said `env` carries no denylist and that
`PATH` "can never be refused" — written when that was this round's position, and left
standing after the round reversed it. A reader landing on either passage would have taken
the superseded argument as current, which is precisely the failure the rewrite-don't-
annotate rule exists to prevent.

Both now describe the denylist, name `PATH`'s inclusion and the case-insensitive match,
and keep the limit explicit: the list cannot be complete against an arbitrary child and
disclosure runs before validation, so consent remains the boundary.

The ADR's byte-identical-signature claim is also corrected rather than softened. With the
outer residual in place, a lane producing no residual is one the validator rejects — it
declares no `flags`, `probe`, `emptyOutput`, `evidenceClass`, `requiresBinaries` or
`promptBudgetKey`. So the property is about the ENCODING, not a claim that any real
signature is unchanged, and it is not the argument for the change being safe. That
argument is that consent binds to the bundle contentHash and no existing consent is
invalidated at all.

Refs #2483.

* test(#2483): cover the three new lane disclosure fields in the injection-safety parity guard

The PARITY test in section N exists to catch a renderer field that skips
`renderValueForPrompt` (#3248). Its payload manifest is hand-maintained, so it
covers the fields that existed when it was written — slug, binary, args,
hostConfigKey, handler — and none of the fields this PR adds.

This PR renders three further manifest-supplied values into consent-prompt
lines: `invoke.env` (keys and values), `invoke.defaultHost` and `probe.binary`.
The gap was silent rather than theoretical: with the lane env line reverted to
the pre-#3248 raw form, the whole 948-test lane/capability/trust-disclosure
suite stayed green.

Two manifests, because the shapes render disjoint lines — `defaultHost` only on
the openai-http branch, `env`/`probe` only where declared, and the probe line
only when the probe binary differs from the dispatch binary.

Non-vacuity is asserted on the typed disclosure object and on structural line
counts, not by substring-matching rendered prose: CONTRIBUTING.md forbids raw
text matching on test output, and this section's own header promises structural
assertions only, so a prose match here would have made that promise false.

Negative-controlled three ways against the merged tree, each producing exactly
one named failure: env rendered raw, defaultHost rendered raw, probe binary
rendered raw.

* docs(#2483): extend the #3248 render-site comment to the fields this PR adds

The comment enumerates every manifest-supplied value that must pass through
`renderValueForPrompt`, and it stopped at `handler` — the reviewer-lane fields
that existed when #3248 landed. This PR renders three more (`defaultHost`, the
probe binary, and the env keys and values), so the list understated its own
contract in the one place a future author would check before adding a fourth.

A comment enumerating a closed set is a set that can silently fall behind the
code it describes; the parity test added alongside is what makes the omission
fail loudly rather than read as deliberate.
