Tom Boucher	2ea5efc151	enhance(#3911): hooks declare their crash policy (#3960) ... * enhance(#3911): give hooks an exit seam that needs no build ADR-3889 Phase 7 foundation. The 19 shipped enforcement hooks hold 91 of the epic's 128 terminators and cannot reach `terminateNow` today. The obvious route — requiring `gsd-core/bin/lib/cli-exit.cjs`, as gsd-agent-isolation-guard.js already does for two other modules — is rejected. That precedent carries its own warning (#3582): those files are tsc output, gitignored and absent on a raw plugin-marketplace or git-clone install, so the hook must first call ensureRuntimeBuild() to self-heal. Making the module a hook needs IN ORDER TO TERMINATE depend on a build inverts the dependency, and its failure mode is precisely the fail-open this phase exists to remove: a guard that cannot terminate cannot deny. `lint-hooks-runtime-build-seam` already encodes that concern, and Design B would have had to add an ensureRuntimeBuild() call to all 19 hooks to satisfy it. So `hooks/lib/` becomes a third emit location for cli-exit and a fifth for the registry, preserving the invariant `src/cli-exit.cts`'s own header states: it imports nothing but node:fs and its sibling registry, and the generator dual-emits that sibling alongside each copy so a relative require resolves next to whichever copy loaded it. Shipping needed no change — build-hooks.js already declares HOOKS_SUBDIRS_TO_COPY = ['lib']. Proven, not asserted: the two files are copied into an otherwise-empty tmpdir and a child process requires them and terminates — PASS exits 0, HOOK_DENY exits 2 with the payload on both stdout and stderr. That test fails the moment the hooks copy gains a require reaching outside hooks/lib/. Also fixed inline: the registry's fifth target let any `--write` test overwrite the real committed hooks/lib/exit-code-registry.js, because the test helper derived only three of the other output paths. It now redirects all five, and a regression test asserts every committed artifact is byte-identical after a redirected write. Install-tree goldens pick up the two new shipped paths across 11 runtimes — insertions only, no removals. lint:ci was green while they were stale, so this was found by regenerating rather than by a gate. Verification runs on the remote runner. Refs #3911 * enhance(#3911): declare a crash policy, and migrate the write guard Adds `hooks/lib/hook-exit.js` — the hook-facing vocabulary over `terminateNow`, hand-written because the cli-exit copy beside it is generated: allow(payload) exit 0 deny(payload, stderr?) exit 2 crash(onCrash, payload) whichever the hook DECLARED `crash()` takes the policy as a required argument with no default, which is the whole mechanism: fail-open by accident stops being expressible. A hook must name ALLOW or DENY at the call site, and an unrecognized value terminates INTERNAL rather than guessing. Fail-open stays legal; fail-open by omission does not. `gsd-write-guard.js` is the first hook migrated, all 12 sites, and it exposed a gap in the seam. `terminateNow`'s doc comment justified its fd-2 write by citing this hook's `emitBlock` — but modeled it as sending the same bytes to both streams, when `emitBlock` actually sends full JSON to stdout and only the bare `reason` string to stderr, because Kimi's hook bus feeds stderr verbatim back to the model. Migrating as written would have turned a readable sentence into a JSON blob for Kimi-backed agents. #3911 requires both "all 19 hooks terminate through terminateNow" and "no hook's effective default changes". Those are jointly satisfiable only by teaching the seam to carry a distinct stderr payload, so `terminateNow` gains an optional third argument: omitted, behavior is byte-for-byte what it was; a string is written raw, which is exactly the Kimi case. The doc comment's inaccurate claim about emitBlock is corrected in place. Proven rather than asserted: the pre-migration file is reconstructed from HEAD and driven with the same catastrophic-shrink payload as the migrated one — exit code, stdout and stderr all byte-identical. Verification runs on the remote runner. Refs #3911 * enhance(#3911): all 19 hooks terminate through the seam Migrates the remaining 18 enforcement hooks onto allow/deny/crash. An AST walk now reports zero `process.exit(` call sites across every `hooks/*.js` — down from the 91 the census measured. Each hook with an outer catch declares its policy once, at module top, with the reason that policy is right for that specific guard: a read guard that cannot scan must not block the read; a statusline that renders every prompt must degrade rather than crash; an injection scanner must not retroactively block a result already returned. Those sentences are the deliverable — they are what turns fail-open-by-accident into fail-open-on-purpose. No hook's effective default changed. Wiring exposed two defects, both fixed here rather than noted. A SECOND stdout/stderr-splitting site turned up in `gsd-workflow-guard.js`'s `emitForceAddBlock`, matching the pattern already known from the write guard — full JSON to stdout, bare reason to stderr for the Kimi bus. It uses the `stderrPayload` argument added in the previous commit, which is now carrying its second real caller rather than one special case. More seriously, `terminateNow` emitted both streams inside ONE try, so a payload that failed to serialize aborted before the stderr write ever ran. The two windsurf guards write nothing to stdout on a block and only a reason string to stderr, so `deny(undefined, reason)` exited 2 with EMPTY stderr — a deny that silently loses its reason, which is the exact "fails with success" class this epic exists to close. The streams are now emitted independently, each with its own guard, and `undefined` means "nothing to write for this stream" rather than an error. Regression tests inject a throwing write on one fd and assert the other still receives its payload; they fail against the single-try version. Byte-identity was proven per hook, not assumed: each pre-change file is reconstructed from HEAD and driven side by side with the migrated one across its normal path, its deny path, malformed stdin and empty stdin — exit code, stdout and stderr compared. Verification runs on the remote runner. Refs #3911 * enhance(#3911): harden the three shell hooks, and pin every hook's policy `gsd-phase-boundary.sh`, `gsd-session-state.sh` and `gsd-validate-commit.sh` gain `set -euo pipefail`. The expected hazard did not materialize, and that is worth recording: every intentionally-non-zero command in all three is already the condition of an `if`/`elif`, which `set -e` never fires on, and none of them reads a possibly-unset variable or pipes through a grep that may legitimately match nothing. No `|| true` guards were needed. Each hook was still checked command-by-command before the flags went in rather than after. Twenty-one before/after cases across the three hooks — disabled and enabled, planning and non-planning, missing STATE.md, malformed JSON, the Kimi payload shape, quoted and unquoted `-m`, valid and over-long Conventional Commits — all match on exit code, stdout and stderr. The hardening is shown to actually fire, not merely added: with a stubbed `node` that fails at the JSON-emit step, phase-boundary and session-state go from silently exiting 0 with empty stdout to failing visibly with the error surfaced. No such case could be constructed for `gsd-validate-commit.sh`, whose every statement already sits inside an if-condition — recorded as unproven rather than claimed. `tests/hooks-crash-policy.test.cjs` adds the per-hook coverage the issue asks for, table-driven over all 19 hooks rather than 76 hand-written cases: normal allow, deny where a deny path exists, crash-honors-the-declared-policy, and an unclosed-stdin case — the one `process.exitCode` structurally cannot serve. The deny assertions encode each hook's ACTUAL stream split rather than a uniform shape, since four of the six deliberately differ. A drift guard enumerates `hooks/*.js` and fails if a terminating hook is ever added without a row. Writing those tests surfaced two hooks that emit a block decision in their JSON body and exit 0. Both were checked rather than assumed, and neither is a fails-with-success: `gsd-read-injection-scanner.js` is PostToolUse, where the tool has already run and exit 2 has no meaning, and `gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js` follows Cursor's JSON-body protocol. They are deliberately left alone — a mechanical sweep to `deny()` would have broken exactly these two. Verification runs on the remote runner. Refs #3911 * fix(#3838): the commit validator says when it could not validate #3911 claims to subsume #3838. Measurement said otherwise, so this closes it for real rather than by assertion. `set -euo pipefail`, added earlier on this branch, does NOT fix #3838: bash exempts a command used as an `if` condition from `set -e`, and all three of the hook's swallow-and-pass sites are exactly that shape. Verified against the hardened hook with a node shim that fails only the classifier call — a non-conforming commit still exited 0 with empty stdout AND empty stderr, indistinguishable from "your commit conforms". That is the defect verbatim. All three sites named in #3838 now capture the real exit status instead of consuming it as a condition, and each distinguishes its genuine negative from "could not run": - the classifier: 0 = is a git commit, 1 = genuinely not one, anything else = could not classify. Its `node -e` now wraps the require and the call in try/catch and exits 3 on a throw, so a broken require chain can never be mistaken for `isGitSubcommand` legitimately returning false — which is the arm that matters, since `token-scanner.cjs` is a gitignored build artifact and a fresh checkout lands there. - the opt-in config read and the JSON command extraction get the same treatment. On "could not run" the hook emits a diagnostic to stderr naming which check failed and why, then exits 0. The issue confirms this is safe — it is a PreToolUse hook, so stderr does not disturb the JSON protocol — and ranks it the smallest sufficient fix. The gate still fails open, but it can no longer do so silently, which is the whole complaint: a validator that disables itself quietly costs more than one that is absent, because it is trusted. Both controls are unchanged and pinned by tests: a conforming commit still passes silently, a non-conforming one still exits 2 with its existing block payload. The defect test asserts stderr is non-empty and names the failure; it fails against the pre-fix hook. Verification runs on the remote runner. Refs #3911, #3838 * docs(#3911): document the hook crash-policy contract Reference and Explanation via a new docs/features fragment (FEATURES.md is generated from it), INVENTORY rows for the three new hooks/lib files, and an ARCHITECTURE note on the hooks section. How-To: docs/how-to/declare-a-hook-crash-policy.md, indexed from docs/README.md — a hook author now has to choose and declare a crash policy, which is more than one step and crosses into which harness protocol their hook speaks. It covers allow/deny/crash, writing an ON_CRASH reason that is actually useful, when a deny needs a distinct stderr payload, the two hooks whose harness reads a JSON-body decision and must NOT use deny(), and what to do when a check cannot run at all — with #3838 as the worked example. Refs #3911 * test(#3911): prove the seam actually ships, and stop hand-rolling temp cleanup Two review findings. The acceptance criterion 'hooks/dist/** stays in parity via the build seam (lint:hooks-runtime-build-seam)' was misstated and unmet: that lint checks something else — that a hook requiring a compiled gsd-core/bin/lib module also calls ensureRuntimeBuild(). Nothing exercised that the three new hooks/lib files reach hooks/dist/lib at all. That gap is not theoretical: #770 is a recorded ship-blocking bug where a new hook never shipped because a copy list missed it. The suite now builds dist through the repo's own ensureBuiltHooks(), byte-compares each shipped copy against its source, and spawns a child that requires the SHIPPED dist copy and denies — which is what catches a copy that exists but cannot resolve its sibling registry. gsd-validate-commit.sh hand-duplicated mktemp/run/rm three times; one idempotent trap on EXIT replaces them, guarded so cleanup cannot alter the exit status. Behavior-neutral across five cases, with temp-file counts taken before and after each run. Refs #3911 * fix(#3911): stage transitive hook lib requires, not just one level The remote run returned 7 failures across 3 real causes. The important one is a PRODUCTION bug this phase exposed rather than caused. `writeCursorHooksJson` scanned each hook script for `./lib/X` requires exactly one level deep and never re-scanned the lib files it staged for their own sibling requires. Nothing had a transitive lib dependency before, so the gap was invisible. Adding hook-exit.js -> cli-exit.js -> exit-code-registry.js made real Cursor installs ship a bundle that dies at require time with MODULE_NOT_FOUND. It now walks to a fixed point, and a real installed Cursor hook runs to completion. The staging harness in shared-hooks-dir-resolution hand-copied its fixture, so the injection scanner crashed at require time and its exit-1 was being read as a policy decision. Migrated to copyScriptWithDeps, which walks the require graph — the repo's recorded rule for this class, since adding another copyFileSync keeps it alive for the next person. The missing-lib-source test in cursor-hook-workspace-roots hardcoded which lib file it expected to be named in the abort message; the same throw now fires for a different file first. Its assertion is unchanged in substance — staging still must abort rather than ship a broken hook — only the name is no longer pinned. The last one was my own test asserting an uppercase reason code. Measured against origin/next: the pre-change hook emits the same lowercase 'config_unreadable', so the test was wrong, not the migration. Corrected to the real value rather than making the code match the test. Verification runs on the remote runner. Refs #3911 * chore(#3911): regenerate the cursor install-tree golden The staging fix means a Cursor install now correctly carries the two transitive lib files it was silently missing. Additive only — no path was removed. The golden diff is the evidence the packaging defect was real. Refs #3911 * chore(#3911): backfill the changeset PR number Refs #3911 * fix(#3911): a git probe that timed out is not a negative A macOS CI lane failed three deny cases at 2084ms, 2112ms and 2177ms — just past the 2000ms budget these hooks give their git probes. The three that passed took 72ms, 595ms and 651ms. Under shard contention `git rev-parse` overruns, the hook reads the non-zero result as "not a git repo", and allows with exit 0 and empty stdout AND empty stderr. Under load, the guards silently stop guarding. That is ADR-3889's thesis exactly, sitting inside the security hooks this phase is about. The repo had already recognized the class in one place — gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js fail-closed-denies on `git_timed_out` (#3045) — but nowhere else. `hooks/lib/git-probe.js` classifies a probe's outcome, distinguishing a real non-zero exit from ETIMEDOUT, a signal kill, and a spawn failure, rather than folding all four into `status !== 0`. Three guards route their eight git probes through it. The resolution is the same shape #3838 took, and the same one that issue endorsed as smallest-sufficient: fail open, but loudly. **No exit code changes on any path** — a developer on a loaded machine is still not blocked, which keeps #3911's declaration-pass contract intact for exit codes. What changes is that the hook now says on stderr which probe could not answer, instead of presenting silence as a clean verdict. Scope was checked across every hooks/*.js, not just the three that failed: gsd-agent-isolation-guard spawns no git; gsd-statusline's two probes gate only a cosmetic display segment, not an allow/deny decision, and are left alone. The C2 deny assertion was a real-race test — it demanded exit 2 while a slow git legitimately yields 0. It now requires the hook to either deny, or allow with a diagnostic naming the probe that could not run; a silent allow still fails, so the assertion is not vacuous. A deterministic regression stubs git on PATH to sleep past the budget rather than waiting for load to reproduce it. Verification runs on the remote runner. Refs #3911 * test(#3911): a PATH shim cannot intercept the hooks' git spawn on Windows The deterministic timeout regression stubbed git on PATH and asserted the guard reports rather than silently allows. It passes on Linux and macOS and failed on Windows in 83ms and 176ms — the stub was never invoked at all. Mechanism: the hooks call spawnSync('git', args) with no shell:true, so on Windows CreateProcess resolves git.exe only and never a PATH .cmd shim. The git.cmd branch could not have worked and is removed rather than left implying a Windows path that does. Adding shell:true to the hooks to serve a test would change product behavior and widen an injection surface, so the case is skipped on win32 only, with the mechanism written into the skip reason so a future reader does not 'fix' it that way. Linux and macOS keep the coverage, and macOS is where the underlying fail-open was actually caught. Refs #3911 --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-27 22:21:10 -04:00
Tom Boucher	03b7125293	enhance(#3909): a probe that could not run no longer asserts a verdict (#3944) ... * test(#3909): failing-first suite for the fabricated probe fallbacks Binds the four fabrication sites found by executing the surfaces (ADR-3889 failure class (c)), each with a positive control so an over-firing fix goes red: - the blocking api-coverage.verify-pre gate certifying "no external-API integration" from a zero-byte phase scope - the assumption-delta query route scanning an unresolvable phase section as the empty string and reporting it as an examined negative - both capability fragments' probe fallbacks, which append a fabricated verdict rather than replacing, and fire on the legitimate exit-1 negative Verification runs on the remote runner. Refs #3909 * enhance(#3909): a probe that could not run no longer asserts a verdict ADR-3889 Phase 5. Four sites turned a failed or unexamined probe into a confident negative; each now reports what it could not establish. - check api-coverage.verify-pre: a phase with no plan body and no roadmap section ran detection over zero bytes and PASSED the blocking seal gate, certifying "no external-API integration" from input it never read. It now holds with scope_unavailable. The discriminator is bytes examined, never signals found, so a phase whose plans are real and simply carry no API vocabulary passes exactly as before. - query assumption-delta scan: an unresolvable phase section was scanned as the empty string and reported as an examined negative. It now returns {skipped, reason: phase_unresolved}, still at exit 0 — an ADR-2980 degraded result in the payload, leaving the gsd-tools exit projection to P8. - both capability fragments: `|| echo '{"detected":false}'` appended rather than replaced, and fired on the legitimate exit-1 negative, so a correct answer and an honest skip both arrived as two concatenated objects. They now keep the probe's own payload and manufacture only an explicit probe_unavailable skip when the probe produced nothing at all. Every registered outcome is more restrictive on a blocking gate, so this can turn a false green red and never a red green. Docs: FEATURES 156, CONFIGURATION (both keys), references/api-coverage.md seal-time outcome table, and a new how-to for the reason-code vocabulary. Verification runs on the remote runner. Closes #3909 * test(#3909): correct the stale unknown-phase assertion `unknown phase → detected:false, no throw (graceful)` scanned phase 999 against a two-phase roadmap and asserted `detected === false`. That pinned the fabrication as intended behavior: the phase does not exist, so the detector was handed the empty string and its "no core assumption changed" answer described nothing that was ever read. It now asserts the skipped-with-reason shape. The graceful-degradation contract the test was actually protecting — the query succeeds and does not throw on an unknown phase — is unchanged. Found by code review, not by the author. Refs #3909 * docs(#3909): author the FEATURES entry in its generator source `docs/FEATURES.md` is generated by `scripts/gen-features.cjs` from the per-feature fragments in `docs/features/`. The API-coverage entry was edited in the generated file, so the next regeneration silently dropped it. The text now lives in `docs/features/api-coverage-gate.md` and `docs/FEATURES.md` is regenerated from it, leaving the shipped file byte-identical and its content actually derivable. Caught by `lint:generated-sync`. Refs #3909 * test(#3909): bind the skip to "not found", and pin the discriminator The first verification run went red on one case, and the case was wrong rather than the code. `getRoadmapPhaseWithFallback` returns `null` for an unknown phase and for a missing ROADMAP.md, but for a section whose body is whitespace-only it returns the heading line alone — which is not empty. So a body-less section WAS found, and reporting `detected:false` over its heading is a real negative, not a fabrication. The test had assumed the resolver yielded `''` there. Correcting the test rather than the resolver keeps `skipped` bound to the distinction the issue asks for — found versus not found — and avoids diverging `assumption-delta scan` from `roadmap.get-phase`, which the fragment documents as sharing one resolver. Also adds the seeded property the test matrix had promised: for any plan body, the scope read back is whitespace-only exactly when the body was. That pins the gate's discriminator to bytes examined, so it cannot quietly become "no signals found", across unicode whitespace and CRLF. `docs/INVENTORY.md` picks up the reference doc's new seal-time outcome table — surfaced by the co-change gate, not by a lint failure.

Tom Boucher	c5f2b94b27	enhance(#3907): gates report no-input instead of a verdict they never reached (#3932) ... * feat(#3907): gates report no-input instead of asserting a verdict they never reached The three stdin-reading gates bound 2 to a stdin read error only, with no arm for stdin closed at zero bytes - so empty input flowed into the detector, found nothing, and exited 1, which each module's own comment defines as a negative verdict. An unset PHASE_SECTION made the UI gate assert the phase has no UI. Empty and whitespace-only input now exit NO_INPUT, and a read error exits UNAVAILABLE rather than a locally-invented 2, both resolved through the registry and delivered by terminateNow. The exit code was only half of it: under --json the same input emitted {detected:false}, byte-identical to the fabricated payload #3909 exists to fix, and the blocking coverage gate reads that payload. Empty input now emits the in-tree {skipped:true,reason} form with no detected key at all. teams-status is excluded: it never reads stdin and has no invented 2, so the four-module framing in the issue and ADR is wrong. The dead root bin/lib/ui-safety-gate.cjs is deleted - no installer reference, no workflow invocation, and the live fallback chains are for other modules. Its removal restores the unit tests to the module that actually ships; they had been asserting the stale copy's two-field shape, which is why it drifted unnoticed. * fix(#3907): drive gate tests through the process seam, and make removed-but-needed basename-precise CONTRIBUTING requires every subprocess go through tests/helpers/process-seam.cjs; two of the three gate suites hand-rolled spawnSync while the third, added in the same change, used runNode correctly for the identical injection case. Converted the blocks this change added, leaving pre-existing ones alone. Deleting one of two files sharing a basename made lint-removed-but-needed report 14 references that were all to the surviving canonical module - the false-positive class its own docstring names. It now matches on the deleted file's full path when a surviving file shares its basename, which is more precise rather than weaker: a genuine full-path reference still fails, and behaviour is unchanged when no basename collides. It immediately caught a docstring on this branch that spelled the deleted path. * test(#3907): update the one existing assertion that pinned the old empty-stdin verdict A pre-existing test asserted exit 1 on empty stdin - the defect this phase removes - and was missed because the change added new blocks without auditing existing ones pinning the old contract. Audited the rest: the other three status-1 assertions in that file all feed real input and are the genuine-negative controls that must keep returning 1, so exactly one was stale. The retired 2 is gone from the describe's contract comment too. * chore(#3907): backfill changeset pr number --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-27 11:37:31 -04:00

Absence, emptiness and failure stop being interchangeable ways to say "I could not answer". parseNamedArgs (src/command-arg-projection.cts) Takes a spec object with a REQUIRED `positionals: number | 'rest'` and returns the hub's Result shape instead of a bare Record. Declaring the positional arity is what makes #3358's call site unrepresentable rather than merely detectable: an unrecognized flag or a token past the declared boundary is now InvalidArgs, naming the offending token and listing the accepted flags. The legacy positional-array call shape throws a TypeError — an internal invariant violation per ADR-3473 Decision 2, so a stale hand-written .cjs call site fails loudly instead of destructuring undefined off a Result. parseNamedArgsOrExit projects a failure onto the caller's error(); it is a projection over the one parser, not a second parser. Measured before, against a STATE.md with a populated phase-2 block: query state.planned-phase 3 (positional, no --phase) -> exit 0; "Phase: 2 of 5 (Widget Support)" overwritten to "Phase: null - READY TO EXECUTE", frontmatter gains a corrupted current_phase_name After: exit 1, `unexpected positional argument "3"`, STATE.md byte-identical. The flag form is unchanged and still updates STATE.md. --pick <field> (gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs) extractField returns {found,value}, and the pick block no longer shares one catch between "output was not JSON" and "field was absent". An absent field exits 1 with pick_field_absent, naming the field and the keys that do exist; non-JSON output exits 1 with pick_output_not_json instead of dumping the command's entire output. A field that is PRESENT with value null, '', 0 or false still prints at exit 0 — that is an answer, not a failure, and it is what keeps `--pick count` printing 0 on a fresh project. Measured before: `audit-open --pick nonexistent_field` printed the whole human-readable audit report at exit 0, and `generate-slug X --raw --pick bogus` printed "hello-world" — a different field's value, confidently, at exit 0. ADR-3409 Decision 7 explicitly deferred this contract fix to #3473; this is it. The sub-issue's "returns 0 when the count is zero OR absent" wording is superseded by the ADR rule it implements: zero prints 0, absence exits non-zero. Defaulting absence to 0 would demote "could not answer" to "the answer is zero" — the hazard docs/how-to/resolve-unreachable-guard-findings.md already warns against. Guard ledger (ADR-3473 Decision 6) scripts/lint-unreachable-guard-drift.cjs Detector A is RETIRED. Its premise — that a `--pick ... || echo` arm can never fire — is now false, so the shape it forbade is the correct idiom and keeping it would forbid the fix. Detector B (glob-consuming cat/ls, a nullglob mechanism this change does not touch) is retained in full, as are the shared scanner, the escape-marker parser and the baseline. Net: -1 detector, 0 added. The file is not deleted. Call-site audit 45 prompt-layer --pick invocations, every one a plain X=$(...) assignment — none in an if test, && chain, or a pipeline whose status is consumed, and no shell block in workflows/commands/agents/references sets -e. Of the 13 (command, field) pairs the prompt layer reads, 10 are always present; the 3 sometimes-absent ones each sit behind a prior found/existence check. No ADR-3409-class "field the command never produces" remains. Design: .gsd/phase/feat-3884-failure-is-a-value/40-design.md Test matrix: .gsd/phase/feat-3884-failure-is-a-value/50-test-matrix.md Refs #3884 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3884): escape untrusted tokens in diagnostics, and cover five unpinned rows Two review findings, both fixed here rather than recorded as limits. 1. A newline in an untrusted token forged a second stderr line. Before, plain-text mode: $ gsd-tools query state.planned-phase $'foo\nError: forged second line' Error: unexpected positional argument "foo Error: forged second line" After: Error: unexpected positional argument "foo\nError: forged second line" --json-errors mode was never affected — io.error runs that payload through JSON.stringify. Plain-text mode writes 'Error: ' + message verbatim, and the three new InvalidArgs reasons plus the two new --pick diagnostics all interpolate a token that comes straight from argv. Fixed with ONE shared helper, formatDiagnosticToken (src/io.cts), applied at every interpolation site — not a copy per site. It is deliberately NOT applied inside error() itself: several callers in this tree emit intentional multi-line diagnostics, and escaping newlines there would mangle them. The available-top-level-keys list needed the same treatment for a reason the review did not anticipate: `frontmatter get <file>` reads an ARBITRARY user document and echoes that document's own keys into the diagnostic. Verified reachable — a frontmatter key containing a newline reaches the key list — so formatKeyForDiagnosticList is guarding a live path, not a hypothetical one. Ordinary keys still render plain and unquoted; a fix that merely dropped the key would also have passed a "one line" assertion, so the test pins the escaped key's presence too. 2. Five behavior-table rows were implemented but nothing pinned them: B7 a dotted path that dies partway B9 bracket syntax on a non-array B10 a negative array index, in and out of range B14 a JSON root that is not an object B17 an @file: payload over 50KB B17 is the load-bearing one. output() writes @file:<path> instead of inline JSON past 50000 characters, and --pick resolves that BEFORE parsing; with no test, a future reordering of those two steps turns every large result into a false pick_output_not_json. The fixture seeds 1200 phase directories and measures the payload at 62474 characters, asserting the spill actually happened rather than assuming it. Refs #3884 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3884): correct the strict-argv surface against a full verification run The first full run came back with 90 failures across 12 files, none in the new tests. They were the argv surface telling me what it actually is. Ten root causes; each classified before anything was changed. I over-implemented, and that is reverted. ADR-3473 §8.4 says parseNamedArgs rejects "unrecognized and positional tokens". It says nothing about a value flag whose value is missing. Making that an error was my design decision, not the rule, and it broke a deliberately recorded contract: `--prd` with no value resolving to null (tests/init.test.cjs emptyPrdValueIsFalsyAndTreatedAsAbsent, row B5; tests/section-manifest-init-facts.test.cjs "flag-shaped value"). The "requires a value" branch is deleted outright rather than kept behind an option — an unused strictness mode is speculative generality. Unknown-flag and unexpected-positional rejection, which is what §8.4 actually mandates, is unchanged. --wave needed a third flag kind the original design did not anticipate. `--wave N` is documented (commands/gsd/execute-phase.md:4,48) and the shipped workflow reconstructs and passes it (execute-phase.md:84), while #2932 records token-PRESENCE semantics: the CLI cares only that the flag appeared, and the value belongs to the workflow layer. That is neither a boolean flag nor a value flag, so `optionalValueFlags` now exists — presence-only in `data`, and the validation cursor consumes a following non-flag token so it is not reported as a stray positional. Every other declared boolean flag was checked against every argument-hint and prose usage in commands/, workflows/, agents/ and docs/; `--wave` is the only one of this shape. Five tests were pinning forms that never worked. tests/adr857-core-without-capabilities.test.cjs passed `init plan-phase --phase 01-stub`, but the documented form is positional (docs/CLI-TOOLS.md:776) and the handler reads args[2] — which for that form is the literal string "--phase". Measured on the pre-fix build against a real .planning/phases/01-stub/ directory: init plan-phase 01-stub -> phase_found=true init plan-phase --phase 01-stub -> phase_found=false The test asserted only exit 0 and key presence, so it had been green while proving nothing about phase resolution. Corrected to the documented form and strengthened to assert phase_found === true. Same class in state.test.cjs (`--plan-count`, a flag that does not exist; the real one is `--plans`), milestone-archive.test.cjs (`init new-milestone --json`, silently ignored), and concurrency-safety.test.cjs (a bare positional field name whose OR-assertion passed because a whole-document dump happens to contain the substring it looked for). Six handlers had no argv validation at all — the same #3358 shape this phase exists to close, found while fixing the rest: init verify-work / phase-op / review / todos / remove-workspace read args[2] with nothing checking the rest, and validate health read --repair/--backfill through a bare args.includes() scan that bypassed the parser entirely. All now go through the seam, so the flag has one owner. tests/init-debug.test.cjs rows C4/C5 asserted that an unrecognized flag must NOT fail. That is the behavior §8.4 removes, and Decision 8 says a caller's local expectation does not override §8, so they are inverted and renamed — a test still called "ignores an unrecognized flag" while asserting rejection would be its own defect. Row C6's point is its PWNED canary; that assertion is kept verbatim and only its exit-status expectation changed, because the hostile token is now rejected rather than absorbed. The blast-radius estimate in 40-design.md is corrected rather than quietly left wrong. get_impact reported MEDIUM / 8 symbols upstream, and that was accurate for what the graph can see — parseNamedArgs's callers. It cannot see that those callers' handlers accept argv shapes wider than the code reading args[2] suggests, which is where the real surface was. Refs #3884 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3884): withdraw the validate-health tightening, finish the A2/A3 revert Second full run: 46 failures, down from 90. Four causes, two of them mine. Reverted `validate health` entirely — it was scope creep, and it broke a real flag. ~30 of the 46 read `unknown flag "--json"; accepted: --repair, --backfill`. The previous commit routed `validate health` through the parser on the reasoning that a flag should have one owner. That was wrong twice over: §8.4 names parseNamedArgs and count queries, and `validate health` was never a parseNamedArgs call site — it read its flags, just not through the parser, so it had no silent-drop defect to fix. Tightening it omitted `--json`, which the health-diagnostic suites use heavily. The handler is now byte-for-behaviour back to its pre-branch form. `validate context` stays converted: it genuinely was a call site, and its `--json` is now declared rather than read by a second `args.includes` scan. The five handlers that had NO validation at all — init verify-work / phase-op / review / todos / remove-workspace — stay fixed. Those read args[2] with nothing checking the rest, which is the #3358 shape this phase owns. Finished the A2/A3 revert. Three tests still encoded the deleted "a value flag with a missing value is an error" rule, including one added by the previous commit for that rule. All three now assert the reverted null contract, and the ones whose titles said "rejected" are renamed — a test named for a contract it no longer asserts is its own defect. `--wave=` and `--wave --weird` are correctly rejected. Neither is documented in commands/gsd/execute-phase.md, gsd-core/workflows/execute-phase.md or docs/, and neither is emitted by the shipped prompt layer, so both are unrecognized tokens that §8.4 mandates rejecting. `doesNotConsumeFollowingFlagAsWaveValue` keeps the property it exists for — asserted directly now, at the parser, that `--wave` does not swallow a following flag as its value — and only its exit-status expectation changed. A contradiction inside this branch, surfaced by the audit and resolved the safe way. Two pre-existing #3573 tests call `state begin-phase '2'` and `state planned-phase '2'` with a bare positional, relying on the old permissive parser to ignore it. This branch's own #3358 regression test requires that exact argv to be REJECTED. The two are mutually exclusive. Widening the router to accept a bare positional — mirroring complete-phase — would have silently re-opened #3358, and was verified to do exactly that: with the widened router, `query state.planned-phase 3` returned exit 0 and wrote current_phase_name again. It is reverted. docs/CLI-TOOLS.md:116 and docs/COMMANDS.md:2192 document only the `--phase N` form for both verbs, so the two #3573 tests move to it. Their assertions were never about the call shape — only that total_phases survives the resync — and both still pass. complete-phase is untouched: its bare positional IS documented, and it keeps the dynamic boundary and the negative-space note that record why. The audit that produced this is in the PR body: for every handler whose declaration changed, the flags it reads anywhere in its body, the flags the shipped surface documents, and the shapes the suite passes, compared. The `--json` miss was a pattern, not an accident — declaring a handler's flags from its parseNamedArgs call alone misses whatever it reads elsewhere.

The generator refuses to build a table where two entries claim one code, two claim one name, a code falls in a range Node or the shell reserves, 2 is claimed by anything but the hook adapter, or an allocation carries no justification. exitCodeFor is pure and total: it throws rather than returning undefined, including for prototype-chain names.

Tom Boucher	6b7df61938	enhance(#3881): one YAML parser — vendored js-yaml replaces the hand-rolled dialect (#3888) ... * docs(#3881): answer §8.1's open question and correct three wrong premises ADR-3473 §8.1 carries a blocking open question with a forcing function: it must be answered before any implementation PR for the rule opens. Answered here as (a), a string-coercing adapter, with the measurement that settles it. The sequencing note bet that §8.8's schema would make (b) tractable. Measured against merged reality it does not: only 33 of extractFrontmatter's 78 non-test call sites read STATE.md, and two of the five compensating mechanisms §8.1 lists survive real types, leaving ~31 lines across 3 call sites as the actual prize. Also corrects three claims verified false while answering it. §8.1's justifying sentence names #3349 and #3360 as defects a real parser would fix; both are already fixed on next, confirmed by executing the compiled parser rather than reading it. The guard roster calls lint-frontmatter-scalar-broad-grep.cjs an expected casualty of this rule, but it guards shell grep idioms in workflow bash fences and never touches our parser. The same roster calls lint-vendored-deps.cjs reusable as-is; it is hardcoded to re2js throughout. The last two were caught by applying the rule this amendment records -- a factual claim in this ADR is a hypothesis until the implementing phase executes it -- on its first use. Refs #3881 * docs(#3881): record that §8.1's fork is ill-posed and (a) is not implementable An adversarial pass on the Phase 4 design established by execution that extractFrontmatter is not a YAML parser but a line-oriented scanner whose output is a function of raw source text. Four spellings of the same value collapse to one js-yaml tree but produce four distinct legacy strings, one of them mangled. No adapter over a tree can choose among outputs the tree does not distinguish, so fork (a) -- keep a string-coercing adapter so the existing contract holds -- cannot be built. For any document with a non-scalar value, (a) collapses into (b); about 26 percent of frontmatter-carrying documents have one. Also records three design defects and one new attack surface, all confirmed by execution: catching a parse failure and returning {} would delete the frontmatter block on the next write at eight call sites that conflate empty with unparseable; an empty value yields null where legacy yields {}, and reconstructFrontmatter omits null-valued keys, so the shipped state template's empty progress key would vanish; the #1882 truncation probe is parseYamlRegion itself rather than a pre-parse heuristic, so it cannot both stay unchanged and survive that deletion; and FAILSAFE_SCHEMA still resolves aliases, expanding seven lines to 22.8 MB. The rule is not deferred. The measurement is the deliverable and the re-scoping is recorded as an open question with a forcing function, per section 8's own rule. Refs #3881 * test(#3881): failing-first rows for block scalars, unicode keys and the missing #3594 matrix Creates tests/feat-3594-parser-adversarial-frontmatter.test.cjs, the file the fixture README instructs contributors to register fixtures in but which never existed. Section C: table-driven ownership check over tests/fixtures/adversarial/frontmatter/ so a fixture with no matrix entry fails loudly; six existing fixtures (duplicate-keys, crlf-mixed, unclosed-block, unicode-keys-and-values, null-byte-value, huge-bounded) each get the invariant its README states.

Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): vendor js-yaml and generalize the vendored-deps guard to a manifest Packaging step for ADR-3473 §8.1: makes js-yaml available to gsd-core/bin/** without promoting it out of devDependencies (promoting broke every installed tree, #3496). gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/js-yaml.cjs is a verbatim copy of node_modules/js-yaml/dist/js-yaml.js (the self-contained UMD dist bundle, not index.js), exposing load/dump/FAILSAFE_SCHEMA/YAMLException with zero require() calls of its own. src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts is hand-authored, not copied, because js-yaml ships no upstream .d.ts and @types/js-yaml is not installed. It is deliberately narrow, declaring only the four symbols in use, so anchors/aliases/custom types/loadAll are unreachable from typed code -- a compile-time enforcement of ADR-3473 §8.1's refusal to expand alias resolution for security reasons. Because it has no upstream counterpart it is excluded from the byte-compare. scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs is refactored from a script hardcoded to re2js into a table-driven VENDORED manifest (one row per package: upstream/vendored .cjs paths, optional .d.cts paths, twin kind upstream-verbatim vs hand-authored) so a second vendored package does not require a second hardcoded check block, per ADR-3473 §8.3 'one implementation per rule'. The four existing re2js checks (vendored .cjs vs node_modules, vendored .d.cts vs node_modules, src/vendor twin vs bin-side twin, devDependency version pin vs installed version) are preserved unchanged; verified pass/fail identical before and after the refactor, and the guard's ability to fail was re-proven with a deliberate one-byte append to both re2js.cjs and js-yaml.cjs, then restored. docs/INVENTORY.md and docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json (via gen-inventory-manifest.cjs --write, run after build:lib) register vendor/js-yaml.cjs. gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/README.md documents both vendored packages and the two twin kinds. Refs #3881 * feat(#3881): parse .planning frontmatter with the vendored js-yaml ADR-3473 §8.1: extractFrontmatter's read path is no longer a hand-rolled line scanner. parseYamlRegion, escapeDoubleQuoted, unescapeDoubleQuoted and parseQuotedScalar are deleted (not patched); parsing now goes through the vendored js-yaml (./vendor/js-yaml.cjs) under { schema: FAILSAFE_SCHEMA, json: true }. Everything js-yaml does not do is layered on top, in one place, carrying the seven design-doc consequences: 1. Empty value: a null js-yaml value is coerced to {} (matching legacy's own empty-value contract) so reconstructFrontmatter — which omits null-valued keys — still round-trips a bare `key:` line instead of deleting it. Verified live: progress: with no value survives parse -> reconstruct -> re-parse. 2. Unparseable no longer collapses to a bare {}: a new FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE Symbol (exported), keyed exactly like the existing #3257 FULL_LINE_COMMENTS channel, is carried on the {} returned for malformed/refused YAML. Invisible to Object.keys/entries/JSON.stringify/for-in, so the 70 call sites that never inspect it are unaffected; wiring the 8 hasFrontmatter sites to consult it is a separate change, not done here. 3. Non-scalar object-list items (the four spellings of `- test: a b` that js-yaml collapses into one tree shape) are rendered as a canonical `key: value[, key2: value2]` string per item, keeping the existing array-of-strings value SHAPE. A full corpus differential over all 1702 tracked markdown files found 11 residual divergences from the legacy parser (enumerated in the PR/report), most of them the parser now being MORE correct (a dropped quoted top-level key, the block-scalar/phantom-key defect, a dropped Unicode key). 4. The #1882 truncation probe still runs the one real parser, but derives its key count from js-yaml's own thrown error and mark.line when the whole region doesn't parse cleanly (the dominant real truncation shape: fence opened, well-formed keys, no closing fence). Verified against both the clean-parse and the exception-fallback path. 5. The #3257 comment channel now attributes each pending column-0 comment against js-yaml's own parsed top-level key list (matched by literal key text, in document order) instead of the legacy ASCII-only key regex, so a comment above a Unicode key attaches correctly. 6. Anchors, aliases and merge keys are refused outright (a raw-text pre-scan, since FAILSAFE_SCHEMA still resolves them) — corpus occurrences today: zero. A 7-line billion-laughs fixture is verified refused rather than expanded. 7. A literal U+0000 is swapped for a private-use sentinel before the parse and restored in every resulting string afterward, since js-yaml rejects NUL unconditionally under every schema. escapeDoubleQuoted is deleted and reimplemented via js-yaml's dump() (forced double-quoted style), with control-char hex escapes lowercased to keep serialized output byte-stable (#1779 emitted lowercase); it keeps its exported name and signature for its two other call sites (commands.cts, runtime-artifact-conversion.cts), which need no change. frontmatterDeepEqual, the comment channel, sliceTopLevelFrontmatterSegments, regenerateFrontmatterKey's guard, noOpObjectListSetError and parseMustHavesBlock are all unchanged — retiring them is fork (b) and is not this phase. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): quote template placeholders and preserve unparseable frontmatter SECURITY.md/UI-SPEC.md/VALIDATION.md wrote frontmatter placeholders as bare {N}/{phase-slug}/{date}, which is valid YAML flow-mapping syntax under the vendored js-yaml parser, not the literal placeholder text intended. Quote them so they parse as strings. Wire the FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE Symbol (exported but unused) at the 8 call sites in state.cts/state-transition.cts that compute hasFrontmatter via Object.keys(extractFrontmatter(...)).length > 0 and reassemble the document without a frontmatter block when false. That check conflated 'no frontmatter' with 'unparseable frontmatter' (both parse to {}), so a document with a merge-conflict marker or refused alias in its frontmatter had that block silently dropped on write. Each site now preserves the exact raw bytes stripFrontmatter removed when the marker is set, leaving the genuinely-empty case unchanged. Refs #3881 * test(#3881): consequence and boundary coverage for the js-yaml migration Rows: A1 emptyValuedKeySurvivesAWrite, A2 unparseableDocumentKeepsItsFrontmatterBlock, A3 unparseableIsDistinguishableFromEmpty, A4 nonScalarValuesCanonicalize, A5 truncationProbeStillFiresOnAnOpenFence, A6 commentsStayOnTheirOwnKey, A7 anchorsAndAliasesAreRefused, A8 aliasExpansionCannotExhaustMemory, F1 UNTERMINATED_KEY_THRESHOLD boundary, F2 alias/nesting refusal bound, F3 frontmatter size boundary (huge-bounded.md + larger).

Refs #3881 * docs(#3881): document the vendored parser, correct a stale rationale, add a vendoring how-to Refs #3881 * docs(#3881): correct the frontmatter glossary entry Two errors in the entry as first written: it named parseYamlRegion as part of the read path when that function is deleted, and it recorded the eight hasFrontmatter call sites as unwired follow-on work when they were wired in e35ac2a2c. Also records the scope caveat that the CLI write path rebuilds the frontmatter block independently, so the marker binds at the transform layer. Refs #3881 * docs(#3881): record the semantic-migration decision and the counted guard ledger The maintainer chose the full semantic migration over splitting the rule into its own epic or patching the scanner, so section 8.1 is answered as "the fork was ill-posed and the migration is semantic" rather than as (a) or (b). Also replaces the pre-implementation guess that this phase would shrink the guard surface with the counted result: excluding vendored third-party lines the hand-maintained surface is net +307, and frontmatter.cts grew by 68 lines despite four functions being deleted, because the compatibility layer over js-yaml is larger than the scanner it replaced. Section 8.1's stated benefit is therefore not delivered as written; what improved is the kind of code maintained, not the amount. Decision 6 requires recording that rather than netting it away. Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): changeset for the vendored YAML parser migration Refs #3881 * test(#3881): golden parity, round-trip property and packaging coverage Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): refuse anchors structurally and fold in review findings ADR-3473 §8.1 review findings, addressed inline: Finding 1 (BLOCKER): refuseAnchorsAndAliases was a raw-line regex that matched only the bare-key spelling (key: &x). A quoted key ("a": &x), a flow mapping ({b: &x}) and a flow sequence ([&x, *x]) all define/use the SAME anchor mechanics while never matching that line shape, so the exact expansion the guard exists to stop went straight through unrefused (a 303-byte quoted-key bomb expanded to ~35.8MB). Replaced with js-yaml's own `load` `listener` callback, which reports `state.anchor` for every event belonging to an anchored node in every spelling, and throws from inside the callback to abort before any expansion (~1-2ms vs full expand-then-discard). A merge key with an alias is still refused (merge always requires a previously anchored node, so the alias itself trips the listener); a bare merge key with NO alias is no longer separately refused, documented as intentional: FAILSAFE_SCHEMA never resolves `!!merge`, so it carries no expansion risk. Table-driven tests added for all four bypass spellings + merge key, plus a quoted-key-spelled billion-laughs fixture registered in the adversarial matrix and README. Finding 2: src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts's docblock falsely claimed anchors/ aliases were "simply UNREACHABLE from typed code" through the twin. Corrected to state the truth: anchor/alias resolution is document-level `load` mechanics reachable through exactly the declared surface, and refusal is enforced at RUNTIME (Finding 1's listener), not by the type surface. Finding 3 (MAJOR): the null-byte sentinel (U+E000) round-trip was non-injective — restoreNullBytesDeep rewrote every U+E000 in the parsed tree back to NUL, including one the document author legitimately wrote, silently corrupting it. Now refuses outright whenever the raw region already contains U+E000 (consistent with the existing anchor/merge-key refusal path), making the substitution provably injective. Tests added for a real NUL alone (preserved), a pre-existing U+E000 alone (refused, not corrupted), and both together (refused, not merged into one byte). Finding 4 (MAJOR): scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs's `srcTwin` field was dead for a hand-authored row (only read inside the upstream-verbatim branch) — exactly how Finding 2's stale docblock drifted unnoticed. Added checkHandAuthoredTwin: every value-level export the twin DECLARES must be an actual own property of the vendored runtime module at require-time. Tests added, including a sensor that a declared-but-nonexistent export IS caught. Finding 5: the existingFm/hasFrontmatter/stripFrontmatter/fmPrefix/ unparseableFm/reassemble preamble, copy-pasted at 7 sites in state-transition.cts plus a sixth hand-inlined copy in state.cts's cmdStateCompletePhase, is now one exported helper (beginFrontmatterReassembly) every site routes through, including the hand-inlined one. Three call sites (beginPhaseCore, patchCore, updateCore) keep a literal `body = stripFrontmatter(content)` assignment alongside the helper call so scripts/lint-state-write-path-drift.cjs's single-hop backward scan (which does not chase aliases) still sees the strip; stripFrontmatter is pure/idempotent so the extra call changes nothing observable. Finding 6: corrected the frontmatter.cts docblock's stale "wiring is a separate change" claim (the 8 call sites are wired on this branch) and the changeset's backlink from (#3473) to (#3881). Finding 7: fixed the lint:ci failures blocking the gate — an @typescript-eslint/only-throw-error violation from throwing a bare Symbol as the anchor-detected signal (now a real Error subclass), unused-var warnings left over from the Finding 5 refactor, a lint-test-file-count cap exceeded by two migration-specific test files (allowlisted with justification), and the lint-state-write-path-drift false positive from Finding 5's helper (fixed above). tests/frontmatter-golden-parity.test.cjs:117's execFileSync already carried an explicit timeout; no change was needed there. Golden fixture: added a golden entry for the new anchor-alias-bomb-quoted.md fixture ({} — matches what the legacy line scanner would also produce, since it independently dropped every quoted top-level key). No other corpus document diverges: real .planning/ documents carry zero anchors/aliases/merge keys/U+E000 today. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): fold in second-round review findings Finding 1 (BLOCKER): tests/frontmatter.test.cjs pinned the pre-migration ASCII-only key regex for the Unicode fixture; updated to require the 相 key's value now that js-yaml has no such restriction. Audited the rest of the file for other pre-migration pins (block scalars, quoted keys, flattened values, empty values, duplicate keys, unclosed blocks, null bytes) by execution against real fixtures; found none regressed. Finding 2: parseYamlRegion and escapeDoubleQuoted renamed to parseGuardedYamlRegion and escapeDoubleQuotedScalar in src/frontmatter.cts so no function still answers to the deleted hand-rolled scanner's name (ADR-3473 §8.1 "deleted, not patched"). escapeDoubleQuotedScalar's three external call sites (src/commands.cts, src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts) updated in the same change — a mechanical rename, not an ADR-amendment matter. Finding 3 (BLOCKER): fixed a real crash and a silent data-loss bug found by execution. A top-level key named constructor/__proto__/toString/ valueOf/hasOwnProperty crashed reconstructFrontmatter (bracket read resolving an inherited Object.prototype member); a key literally named __proto__ was silently DROPPED entirely (bracket assignment on an ordinary {} invoked the inherited __proto__ setter instead of creating a data property). Fixed by building every parsed Frontmatter object with Object.create(null), and replacing an `in` check with hasOwnProperty.call in propagateCommentChannel. Added round-trip tests for all five hostile keys, each with its own leading comment. Finding 4 (MAJOR): escapeDoubleQuotedScalar's docstring falsely claimed full byte-stability across the migration. Verified by execution: BEL/NUL/ NEL/NBSP/LS/PS/BOM now emit YAML-named escapes instead of the old hex/raw- literal forms. Proved round-trip equivalence (each escape re-parses to the exact source codepoint) and corrected the docstring. Found and fixed a related real defect while verifying: a lone UTF-16 surrogate was emitted BARE (scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting didn't trigger), producing genuinely unparseable YAML that silently collapsed to {} on re-read — extended scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting to route surrogates through the quoted+escaped path. Finding 5 (MAJOR): countKeysBeforeTruncation went silent on 4 real truncation shapes (unquoted colon, open flow collection, mis-indented sibling key, refused anchor). Root cause: the mark-based prefix recovery excluded the very line whose key needed counting, and a mark-less refusal never entered the recovery branch at all. Fixed by taking the max of two lower bounds: the longest parser-verified line-prefix, and a raw-text count of key-shaped lines (reusing the same key-shape pattern this file already uses for isFrontmatterShaped). Extended test-matrix row A5 table-driven over all 4 regressed shapes. Finding 6: the design doc's claim that no test owned the #3594 adversarial fixture corpus was false — consolidation epic #1969 had already folded it into tests/frontmatter.test.cjs. An earlier commit on this branch re-created a standalone duplicate under that false premise; folded its genuinely-new coverage (fixture-ownership check, anchor-bomb fixtures, block-scalar B1/B2 rows) into frontmatter.test.cjs and deleted the duplicate file. Corrected the false claims in 40-design.md §3.3.1 and the ADR's §8.1 note, including the roadmap-sibling claim (no such file exists). Finding 7: the golden serializer sorted object keys, making it structurally blind to the key-order-parity invariant ADR-3473 §8.1 actually claims. Made it order-preserving and regenerated the golden fixture from a standalone compile of the legacy (pre-#3881) parser at ddde001af; the current parser matches it with zero undocumented divergences, confirming key-order parity genuinely holds. Extended row A2 table-driven across 6 of the remaining 7 transitionCore kinds (all pass) plus documented, by execution, a newly-discovered 8th-site regression: state.cts's cmdStateCompletePhase calls the same preservation helper but its result is clobbered by a later unconditional resync — filed as a distinct finding rather than fixed here (touches syncAndPreserveStateMd, outside this change's verified scope). Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): preserve unparseable frontmatter through the CLI write path Characterization (executed, before/after shown): case (b), not (a). The frontmatter FENCE survives — `state complete-phase` on a conflict-marked STATE.md returns success and a well-formed, freshly-derived frontmatter block, not a document with no frontmatter at all. But the block's actual content (the merge-conflict markers, and with them any signal to a human that the document was in conflict) is silently discarded and replaced. Root cause was two clobber sites, not one: 1. syncStateFrontmatter (src/state.cts) re-parses the already-preserved `transformedContent` from readModifyWriteStateMd, finds {} + the FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE marker, and unconditionally rebuilt a fresh frontmatter block from the body anyway. 2. Even after (1) is fixed, applyPostSyncPreservation's own postFm/applyStatePreservation/authoritativeFm-reassertion machinery re-extracts frontmatter from syncedContent, restores curated fields from the pre-write snapshot, and reconstructs a NEW block again — confirmed live via `state begin-phase`, which still lost the markers after fixing (1) alone. Both are now guarded by the same predicate (isUnparseableFrontmatter, checking FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE): when the ORIGINAL frontmatter did not parse and the caller is not on ADR-3408 §8.3's closed "body wins" list, both functions return their input content unchanged rather than re-deriving over it. The closed list (cmdStateSync #905, /gsd-health --repair's REGENERATE_STATE, both routed only through writeStateMd, which never reaches applyPostSyncPreservation and passes sanctionedPermanentEmptyFallback=true to syncStateFrontmatter) is untouched — neither widened nor narrowed; verified by execution that `state sync` still overwrites the conflict-marked block exactly as before. Other verbs sharing the same readModifyWriteStateMd path were checked and were equally affected before this fix: state update, query state.patch, and state begin-phase all lost the conflict markers (RED, shown by execution), and all three now preserve them (GREEN). Covered table-driven in tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs's new A2b describe block, which drives the real CLI verbs via runGsdTools — not just the pure transitionCore layer the earlier A2 rows exercised — plus a control asserting state sync's body-wins contract is unchanged. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): restore the parse surface's prototype and fix remote-runner failures Root cause of the bulk of the 88 remote-runner failures: extractFrontmatter/parseGuardedYamlRegion handed back Object.create(null) trees for prototype-pollution safety, but assert.deepStrictEqual compares prototypes, so every assertion against a plain object literal failed (57 frontmatter.unit.test.cjs + 5 frontmatter.test.cjs + others). Fixed by keeping the internal construction null-prototype (unchanged) and converting to a plain-prototype tree via Object.defineProperty (never bracket assignment, so __proto__/constructor/toString keys stay safe) at the parseGuardedYamlRegion/unparseableResult return boundary only; the internal FULL_LINE_COMMENTS Symbol channel is copied by reference, not recursed, so its own __proto__-safety is untouched. Per-class fixes: (1) bomAcrossArtifactTypes was the same prototype bug, no separate code change needed. (2) frontmatter-cli #1660: added objectListFieldWouldLoseData, a broader lossy-field detector alongside the existing byte-identical noOpObjectListSetError -- js-yaml's flattenObjectListItem now correctly includes every sub-key of an object-list item (a real bug fix over the legacy scanner, which silently dropped every field but the first), so a set that drops that now-included data is no longer byte-identical to the original and needs its own guard. (3) uat.test.cjs: updated the pinned expectation for the human_verification quote-stripping artifact -- js-yaml resolves quoting correctly where the legacy regex left an unbalanced quote; documented as an intentional, non-lossy behavior change. (4) smart-entry: added a fallback-only loadWithAmbiguousColonRepair so a column-0 key: value line whose value itself contains an unquoted colon (the #2571 hand-edited-STATE.md shape) round-trips instead of failing the whole frontmatter block closed. (5) frontmatter.unit.test.cjs bracket-array leniency: added a second fallback, repairMalformedInlineArrays, restoring the legacy scanner's tolerant inline-array handling (consecutive/blank commas, unclosed bracket) -- both repairs run ONLY after the primary parse already threw, so well-formed documents are unaffected. (6) prompt-injection-scan: src/frontmatter.cts had a literal U+FEFF BOM embedded in a comment illustrating the #2977 fix; replaced with the U+FEFF text escape. (7) eslint-glob-coverage: allowlisted the new src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts vendored type declaration, same precedent as the existing re2js.d.cts entry. (8) frontmatter-golden-parity: git ls-files *.md now runs with -c safe.directory=* (process-scoped) so it survives the remote runner's dubious-ownership check without a persistent git config write. Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): backfill changeset PR number Refs #3881 * test(#3881): make golden parity resistant to unrelated tree churn A corpus-wide snapshot keyed to every tracked *.md file was coupled to mutable-by-design files: .changeset/*.md's pr:0 -> real-PR-number backfill is a required workflow step, not a parser change, yet it turned this suite red. Training people to 'just regenerate the golden' on that kind of failure defeats the point of the snapshot. Exclude .changeset/** from the golden corpus entirely, tolerate tracked *.md files with no golden entry (they postdate the capture) instead of failing on them, keep hard failures for a golden entry whose file has vanished from the tree and for any real parity divergence, and add a coverage floor so the enumeration cannot quietly degrade to comparing a handful of files. Golden regenerated by recompiling the legacy pre-migration parser (git show ddde001af:src/frontmatter.cts) standalone, independent of the current parser, over the same non-changeset corpus. Refs #3881 * test(#3881): make the parser golden hermetic instead of tree-keyed This repo merges ~21 commits/day; a 14-day sample measured 937 touches of the exact files (commands/gsd/*.md, gsd-core/workflows/*.md, agents/*.md, docs/*.md) the prior golden pinned by tracked path. Any PR editing one of those files' frontmatter for reasons unrelated to the parser (an argument-hint addition, an allowed-tools tweak) turned the suite red, and the reflex fix -- "regenerate the golden" -- overwrote the very snapshot meant to catch a real regression. Excluding .changeset/** was not enough; the design itself was wrong: a regression fixture must not be keyed to mutable repo paths, and a single 376-entry JSON every such PR touches is also a guaranteed merge-conflict surface. Rebuilt the fixture to carry its own documents: each of 51 entries stores a stable id, literal documentText (shrunk from a real ddde001af-era corpus document), and an expectedParse captured independently from the pre-migration legacy parser (git show ddde001af:src/frontmatter.cts, compiled standalone against its byte-identical sibling modules). The test reads no tracked path, shells out to no git command, and enumerates no tree -- a PR editing commands/gsd/help.md cannot affect it. Every entry's reconstruction was verified at capture time to reproduce both the current and legacy parser's output on the original document; 0 of 51 candidates were dropped by that check (1, the deliberately-unterminated unclosed-block.md adversarial fixture, has no closing fence to truncate at and is stored unshrunk). Kept the 5 documented DIVERGENCES rows (now diverges:true entries) and the D2 order-preserving structural serializer that keeps the comparison from passing vacuously; dropped the tree-enumeration helpers, the coverage floor, the post-capture-skip logic, and the vanished-file check -- all artifacts of the path-keyed design. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): resolve vendored-deps paths independently of cwd shape Five rows in tests/lint-vendored-deps-manifest.test.cjs failed on windows-latest CI: the test passed absolute scratch-file paths into compareFiles()/checkRow(), whose helpers joined every input onto ROOT via path.join(ROOT, rel), producing garbage when the input was already absolute. It surfaced on windows-latest specifically because GitHub's Windows runners checkout the repo on a different drive than TEMP, so path.relative(REPO_ROOT, tmpFile) returned the absolute path unchanged (no relative traversal is representable across drives) rather than the relative form the test assumed. The remote gsd-test runner this repo gates pushes on is Linux-only and could never have caught this; GitHub CI's windows-latest job is the only signal that does, and it did. Fixed the helper itself (scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs's new resolvePath()) to treat an already-absolute input as absolute-in, absolute-out instead of silently mis-joining it, and updated the test to pass the scratch file's absolute path directly rather than relying on a relative conversion that is not always representable. Kept every mutation-sensor assertion intact and added coverage proving resolvePath is a no-op for relative inputs and correctly passes absolute ones through unchanged. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): warn when state sync regenerates over unparseable frontmatter state sync (ADR-3408 §8.3's sanctioned regenerate path) correctly overwrites an unparseable frontmatter block per its 'body wins' contract — that overwrite behavior is unchanged here. The defect was the silence: synced:true/exit 0 gave no signal that the existing block (including git merge-conflict markers) could not be parsed and was destroyed, per ADR-3473 §8.5 ('a derived conclusion may not be reported as authoritative when the derivation dropped input it could not resolve') and §8.4 ('failure is a value'). Adds a gsd: warning — ... (#3881) line on stderr, matching the existing #3573 precedent, and surfaces the same disclosure in the JSON result's existing changes[] array so a machine consumer sees it too. Exit code and synced:true are left unchanged — sync did what its contract says. REGENERATE_STATE (/gsd-health --repair's sibling on the same sanctioned-regenerate list) is DESTRUCTIVE-risk and unconditionally refused by applyRepairs's dispatcher before runRepairAction ever runs (src/health-diagnostic.cts), so it is not a live path today and is not in scope for this fix. Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): exit non-zero when a state command returns an error Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): changeset for the state exit-code fix Refs #3881 * fix(#3881): honor the documented --project-dir flag Refs #3881 * revert(#3881): restore exit-0 result envelopes for state errors Reverts 9638f2936 and its changeset. The change was wrong and the revert is the correction. This repo distinguishes two error mechanisms deliberately. error() in src/io.cts writes to stderr and calls process.exit(1) -- the hard-failure path. output({error: ...}) writes a JSON result envelope to stdout and returns normally with exit 0. The reverted commit converted 23 result-envelope sites into hard failures, which is a different contract, not a bug fix. tests/state-contract.test.cjs's errorPathDoesNotPublish asserts the envelope contract directly -- a failing command exits 0 with a JSON error envelope and must not publish state.json -- and the remote matrix run caught it along with four cases in the QA scenario walk. Thirteen tests in tests/state.test.cjs that the original commit rewrote were encoding that real contract, not the bug it claimed; they are restored. Whether an error envelope on stdout with exit 0 is the right CLI design is a genuine question, and it is section 8.4's rule ('failure is a value') with its own phase. It is not something to flip inside this PR. Refs #3881 * chore(#3881): backfill changeset PR number for the project-dir fix Refs #3881 * test(#3881): keep the frontmatter mutation shard inside its time budget The Stryker (frontmatter) shard hit the documented 15-minute (900s) shard cap. Root cause is NOT row-level spawn overhead (contrast the #2790/ core-utils precedent): the three shard test files' own logic runs in ~413ms total (356+30+27ms) with all 392 assertions passing. Instead, src/frontmatter.cts grew from ~825 to 1496 lines (+671/-187) migrating to the vendored YAML parser, proportionally growing the mutant count Stryker generates for gsd-core/bin/lib/frontmatter.cjs. Stryker's command runner bills the full 'node --test <3 files>' invocation once per mutant, and node:test's default per-file process isolation forks a child process for each of the three files on every one of those invocations — pure fork overhead multiplied by a much larger mutant population. Fix: scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs COVERED.frontmatter now declares isolation: 'none', and .github/workflows/mutation.yml passes --test-isolation=${{ matrix.isolation }} (defaulting to 'process' — i.e. unchanged behavior — for the other 8 shards, which were not individually audited for cross-file state leakage under shared-process execution). Measured locally via node:test's run() API on the exact 3-file set: isolation:'process' took ~593ms vs isolation:'none' ~478ms for the same 392 passing assertions. The true CI-shard number can only be confirmed on the GitHub Actions run (Stryker cannot run locally, and 'node --test' is hard-blocked in this environment). Refs #3881 * test(#3881): register the vendored-parser tests in the frontmatter mutation shard stryker.config.mjs's own rule ("Keep this list in sync with the tests arrays in scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs COVERED") was violated: #3881 grew src/frontmatter.cts from ~825 to 1496 lines but its new tests (tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs, tests/frontmatter-golden-parity.test.cjs, tests/frontmatter-roundtrip.property.test.cjs, and +167 lines in tests/frontmatter.test.cjs) were never added to the frontmatter shard's tests array, so Stryker's mutants in the new vendored-js-yaml adapter had nothing constraining them. PR #3888 measured 55.8% against the 65 floor (748 killed / 593 survived / 17 timeout) and the shard was separately cancelled at 15m04s against the 15-minute per-shard cap. Registers all four files (each earns its slot on evidence of a unique constraining assertion, documented inline), gives the shard a measured/projected 180-minute budget via a new per-module timeoutMinutes field threaded through mutation.yml's job-level timeout-minutes the same way isolation is threaded, and removes the prior isolation:'none' override (re-measured at this file-set size, its savings are within run-to-run noise, not worth the unaudited cross-file-state-leakage risk).

Updated both scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs COVERED entries and tests/mutation-matrix-ratchet.test.cjs RATCHET_BASELINE in the same diff per the ratchet's own contract. Closed the frontmatter shard's 63.03%-vs-65 gap with new behavioral tests in tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs, each paired with a documented near-miss: frontmatterDeepEqual's array-order/length/type-mismatch/key-order semantics (via spliceFrontmatter's no-op guard), scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting's leading/trailing-whitespace and dash/surrogate triggers (via reconstructFrontmatter), repairAmbiguousColonValues' already-quoted vs ambiguous-colon repair paths (via extractFrontmatter), and the null-byte sentinel round-trip surviving at region offset 1. Did not lower minScore. Refs #3881 * test(#3881): decouple the ratchet test from real module floors The CLI end-to-end rows in tests/mutation-score-ratchet.test.cjs hardcoded config-schema's real floor (52), which commit 973321541 legitimately ratcheted to 74 -- breaking a test pinned to the exact value the mechanism under test exists to change. Add an injectable --matrix seam to scripts/check-mutation-score-ratchet.cjs and point the CLI rows at a synthetic module + synthetic floor built via a temp fixture, so the rows are indifferent to any real module's floor moving while still exercising the same fail/pass behaviour.

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

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

Tom Boucher	fb2d122d7f	feat(#3841): assert gsd-tools identity on every state-mutating verb (#3848) ... * feat(#3841): assert gsd-tools identity before any state-mutating verb only this package publishes. The path-based branches — a project-local install, a runtime config directory — had no such guarantee; they trusted their configured location. This closes them. Mechanism: once resolution finishes, and before any verb runs, the preamble probes the tool it picked with `runtime-identity --raw` and matches the answer with a shell `case` pattern ANCHORED to the start of the compact payload (`{"packageName":"@opengsd/gsd-core"`). An unanchored substring match accepts the decoy `{"packageName":"get-shit-done-cc","note":"@opengsd/gsd-core"}`, which any colliding package could publish. The outcome is exported as the two-valued `GSD_IDENTITY_STATUS` (`ok`/`unverified`), so the gate is asserted on a VALUE rather than on warning prose. Rollout is warn-then-fail per the #3146 ruling: `unverified` prints one line naming BOTH causes and continues, because `no_identity_verb` cannot tell a foreign package from an `@opengsd/gsd-core` older than the verb, and at rollout the old-version case is the common one. The blocker was byte budget, not design. The preamble is inlined into 112 shipped files and several sat within single-digit bytes of frozen ceilings (`gsd-verifier.md` 16 bytes, `gsd-executor.md` 33, `execute-phase.md` 234); a first attempt broke five of them. What made room was collapsing the resolver's twenty near-identical `elif [ -f … ]` arms into one candidate-list helper (`_gsd_at`), which buys far more than the assertion costs. The preamble is now 2,624 bytes against 4,500 — a net 1,876 bytes SMALLER per inlined file, so every capped file moved away from its ceiling rather than toward it. No cap raised, no size-budget exception added, no override token emitted. Resolution order, every runtime-home probe, the `unset -f gsd_run` re-source fix, the fail-closed `exit 1`, and the `CLAUDE_ENV_FILE` persistence are all preserved byte-for-byte in substring terms; the snippet still begins with `_GSD_SHIM_NAME=` and still ends with `fi`, which the parity extractors anchor on. `gsd-core/references/gsd-run-resolver.md` is re-synced byte-equal. Also fixes two stale claims found in passing: CONTEXT.md and FEATURES.md both described an `[ -x ]` guard as the load-bearing re-source defense. That guard was tried and REMOVED in #3831 — it rejected the bare function name, fell through every branch, and hit `exit 1`, which kills a sourced caller's shell. `unset -f gsd_run` is the actual mechanism. Refs #3841 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3841): pair the anchor's brace by requiring a closed identity payload The matrix went red on `tests/new-project-mvp-prompt.test.cjs` — "new-project.md has unbalanced braces: net depth 2" — plus a knock-on report from its parent `bug #1516` describe, which is the same failure counted once at the child and once at the block. Root cause: that guard (:182-189, mirroring #3784 bd53925f) walks characters and increments on `{`, decrements on `}`, with no awareness of shell quoting. It scans `new-project.md` PLUS every `new-project/steps/*.md`, and both `new-project.md` and `steps/auto-mode-config.md` carry one inlined preamble copy — hence net 2 from a snippet that was off by exactly one. The unpaired brace was the `{` inside the single-quoted `case` pattern of the identity anchor, which is correct shell and invisible to a text scanner. Fix in the snippet, not the guard. The pattern now anchors at BOTH ends: `'{"packageName":"@opengsd/gsd-core"'*'}'`. That balances 51/51 with a brace that does real work rather than a cosmetic pair — a truncated payload whose prefix matches now fails too, where before it verified. Safe for any future additive field: a JSON object's own closing brace is always the last character, whatever type the last value has, which is pinned by two negative-space tests (a nested object and an array-valued last key must both still verify). Cost: +3 bytes, against the 1,873 the resolver fold already gave back. The alternative considered and rejected was dropping the literal `{` for a `?` glob. It balances too, but weakens the anchor from "must be an opening brace" to "must be any one character", and the anchor is the entire point. Two guards added so this cannot recur silently: - runtime-launcher-parity (F0) pins brace balance at the SNIPPET, so the next edit to that pattern fails on the file it broke instead of surfacing three files downstream in a test whose name mentions neither the launcher nor this issue. It also asserts depth never goes negative, since a `}` preceding its `{` nets to zero while being unbalanced at every prefix. - runtime-identity gains behavioral truncated-payload and trailing-garbage fixtures, so the added `}` is proven load-bearing rather than merely present. Verified: snippet 51/51 braces; new-project combined net depth 0; the seven other preamble-bearing files with nonzero depth are unchanged from merged next (their own prose, not the preamble, and not in any guard's scan set); all 112 inlined copies and the resolver reference re-synced byte-equal; sync:launcher idempotent on the second run.

Tom Boucher	63abcface9	feat(#3146): resolve gsd_run so workflows cannot reach a foreign gsd-tools (#3831) ... * feat(#3146): resolve gsd_run so workflows cannot reach a foreign gsd-tools The predecessor package get-shit-done-cc publishes a colliding gsd-tools bin whose phases.clear DELETES where this package's ARCHIVES, and both print success-shaped output against a gitignored .planning/ -- which is how #3129 cost a user 43 phase directories with no error and nothing recoverable from git. The launcher's PATH branch now resolves gsd_run, published only by this package and self-locating via its own symlink chain to the sibling shim, instead of the colliding gsd-tools. A foreign handler becomes unreachable from PATH, and when no gsd_run is reachable the resolver fails closed rather than falling back -- that fallback was the vulnerability. This is smaller than the branch it replaces, which matters: the preamble is inlined into 113 shipped files and agents/gsd-verifier.md sits 2 bytes under a red-line size cap. unset -f gsd_run leads the preamble so a re-source is idempotent. Without it, command -v finds the shell function, returns a bare name, and the resolver falls through to an exit 1 that kills a sourced caller's shell. Adds gsd-tools runtime-identity, a manual diagnostic reporting this runtime's package coordinates over the baked package-identity (#498) and readHostVersion, with a strict total classifier: only a JSON object with an exact packageName verifies, since JSON.parse admits 0/"str"/[]/null/true. An inlined identity assertion was built and reviewed first, then withdrawn -- it breaks five frozen size ceilings and no assertion fits in 2 bytes. Closes #3146 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3146): stop sync:launcher relocating a deliberate preamble placement Pre-existing defect, surfaced by this PR because sync is a no-op unless the snippet content actually changes. transformFile inserts the preamble into the first block that CALLS gsd_run, but gsd-core/workflows/explore.md deliberately places it in a bootstrap-only block that DEFINES gsd_run without calling it -- its own comment explains why: declining the research offer must not leave Step 5's commit call unbootstrapped. Stripping empties that block of calls, so the preamble migrated forward and broke the define-before-use invariant tests/explore-command.test.cjs pins. Reproduced on a pristine origin/next checkout with the base snippet and base file, so this was not introduced here. The insertion target now honours a block that already carried the preamble, falling back to the first calling block for files that have none yet. Adds a behavioral regression test over a two-block fixture. Also updates three runtime-launcher-parity tests that pinned the removed PATH fallback to gsd-tools. Their intent is preserved -- the PATH stub is renamed gsd_run so it is reachable by the new resolver, and the RUNTIME_DIR-wins test still asserts the stub is never invoked. Fixture shebangs move to an absolute /bin/sh, because the fixture PATH is deliberately restricted and #!/usr/bin/env sh could not resolve.

Two PRs adding differently numbered features still collide on the TOC, so renumbering alone does not make a branch safe. This branch alone was renumbered 165 -> 166 -> 167 -> 168 across successive rebases. Adds a CONTRIBUTING section stating the practice: allocate the number last, never pre-emptively renumber, take max+1 after a rebase and update the TOC in the same commit, and never renumber someone else's section. Fork contributors are told explicitly they may leave the number to a maintainer at merge rather than chasing the counter. Agents are told to lease the allocation and to include the file in their published touched set. Records the durable fix as planned rather than pretending it exists: FEATURES.md should be generated from per-feature fragments the way CHANGELOG.md is generated from .changeset/, and the way tests/emitted-drift-acks/ works (#2914). Also renumbers this branch's own section to 168, leaving 167 to the PR already in flight.

Composes existing owners rather than re-deriving: phase rows come from a new locateProgressTable extracted from deriveProgressFromRoadmap (so the snapshot can never disagree with GSD's own progress counters), milestone identity from getMilestoneInfo, and next from classifyProject. Owners are required lazily to avoid the state -> state-contract -> smart-entry -> state require cycle. Also fixes a pre-existing defect in scripts/lint-test-file-count.cjs (maintainer-approved as a second concern): testEffectivePrefix never stripped the suite qualifier, so 65 dotted test files counted against no module and 9 mis-bucketed into a shorter one.

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

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

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

Expected RED on this commit -- next carries 32 unrostered surfaces, which is the defect the gate exists to catch. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3762): enforce docs/INVENTORY.md roster rows, backfill 32 gaps docs/INVENTORY.md calls itself the authoritative roster of every shipped GSD surface, and CLAUDE.md's inventory-drift rule requires both a roster row and a manifest regen. Only the manifest half was anchored, so a PR could ship a surface, regenerate the manifest, omit the row, and stay green -- as PR #3758 did with gsd-core/references/planner-coupling.md. Adds the roster half to tests/inventory-manifest-sync.test.cjs, backed by a pure matcher in tests/helpers/inventory-roster.cjs, and backfills the 32 surfaces already missing rows on next. Fixes #3762 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(#3762): harden roster matcher against fenced blocks and trim exports Skips fenced code regions when splitting level-2 sections so a documented '## ' example inside a fence cannot truncate a family section (false red) or contribute a phantom row (false pass); makes the heading pattern linear rather than a backtracking lazy match; narrows the module surface to the three names the gate consumes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3762): close two false-RED gaps found in orthogonal review Indented headings: CommonMark permits an ATX heading to carry 1-3 leading spaces, and a ^##-anchored pattern read such a document as having no family sections at all -- reporting all six missing, a structural red for zero real drift. Reproduced, then fixed and pinned. Link-wrapped cells: a row written as [`x.md`](../x.md) was not recognized, though docs/INVENTORY.md already uses that form elsewhere. Unwrapping now peels a whole-cell link and a whole-cell code span, and only layers that wrap the cell entirely -- a file mentioned mid-prose is still not a row, so the false red is not traded for a false pass. Adds a second fast-check property over the commands source-link rule, the one family whose matching rule differs from the other five.

Tom Boucher	14679b866b	enhance(#2856): add default-off live-DOM UAT capability (#3716) ... * test(#2856): add failing-first suite for the live-dom-uat capability Binds the approved triage shape before any of it exists: - containment — the execute:wave:post hook must not render unless workflow.live_dom_uat is true AND the capability resolves active (fail-closed on a missing state entry, and on a non-boolean value) - criterion 4 — agents/gsd-executor.md carries no browser MCP family; asserted as an absence, which is the only way it is observable - Hyrum guard — the pre-existing mcp__playwright__* branch must stay outside the key-gated block, or upgrading silently removes working automated UI verification for every current Playwright-MCP user - parity — the browser glob list now lives in two surfaces (agent frontmatter + workflow detection block); the assertion fails if either gains or loses a family without the other Red by construction: the capability, agent and workflow block do not exist yet. Verified on the remote runner. Refs #2856 * enhance(#2856): add default-off live-DOM UAT capability A phase whose acceptance criteria needed a live DOM could not be finished by the agent that executed it: gsd-executor carries no browser tools, so it correctly returned checkpoint:human-action even though the work was not human-only, just tool-less. Every such phase degraded to "executed, then finished by hand in the orchestrator", and autonomous: false could not distinguish "a human must judge this" from "the executor lacks the tool". Implements the shape approved at triage, not the one reported. The executor's tools: line is NOT widened, in any configuration: for a first-party agent the static list is the only control that exists (ADR-1244 D2, ADR-857 D4, no per-dispatch override). Instead one default-off capability owns the key, the agent, and the step: - capabilities/live-dom-uat/ — activationKey workflow.live_dom_uat (boolean, default false), one additive step at execute:wave:post (onError: skip, gates: []), so it can never halt a wave - agents/gsd-dom-verifier.md — the only GSD agent carrying browser MCP globs, in its own tools: line, with no Bash - verify-work automated_ui_verification — a gsd:live-dom-families block naming both new families AND the key; presence alone never activates Two independent fail-closed gates: isCapabilityActive renders a hook only on state.active === true, plus the step's own `when`. The pre-existing mcp__playwright__* branch keeps the gating it already had and stays outside the new block. Pulling it behind a default-off key would have silently removed working automated UI verification from every current Playwright-MCP user on upgrade. Also closes a host gap this surfaced: execute:wave:post dispatched only contribution + gate, so ANY registered step was declared and silently never run — exactly the single-kind hand-roll loop-hook-dispatch.md names. Step 5.75 now dispatches every kind == "step". The browser-profile lock is tolerated, not coordinated: --isolated is a flag on the operator's own MCP-server registration that GSD neither launches nor parameterizes, so the verifier reports could_not_look / profile_locked, names the flag, and stops. DOM-VERIFY.md keeps could_not_look and nothing_to_report distinct behind a closed reason enum — collapsing them is the ambiguous-run-notes defect reported. Verified on the remote runner. Closes #2856 * fix(#2856): apply review findings from the orthogonal passes Correctness pass (blocker): - delete detectionBlockIsCrlfSafe. It was pass-always: it read the file, replaced LF with CRLF, then indexOf'd marker strings that contain no newline, so the replacement could not change the result and the assertion could never fail for the reason it stated. There is no real CRLF risk on this surface either — the gsd:live-dom-families block has no parser, only human and agent readers. Deleted rather than replaced, per the repo's pass-always-test rule. Isolated security pass (two minors, both real): - execute-phase.md step 5.75: this change is what first activates kind == "step" dispatch at execute:wave:post, which newly opens the ref.command shell path at that loop point. Our own step uses ref.agent and never touches it, but the door is now open, so the step-dispatch line carries the same in-context validate-before-shell warning the sibling gate-dispatch line directly below it already carries. - gsd-dom-verifier: quoted page text in DOM-VERIFY.md is attacker influenced. Require it wrapped in inline code or a fence, kept short, and never left reading as a directive to the next reader. Verified on the remote runner. Refs #2856 * fix(#2856): settle the new-agent roster ripple Checkpoint 2 returned 28 failures, none in the new suite — all of them the guards that exist to make adding an agent a deliberate act. Each is a real boundary that had to move: - docs/AGENTS.md: Tools row must copy the frontmatter verbatim (#2526), so the browser globs lose their backticks; primary-agent counts 21->22, roster 33/34->34/35, Verifiers category 1->2 - docs/INVENTORY.md: roster completeness requires every agents/gsd-*.md to be classified exactly once - gsd-dom-verifier: add the anti-heredoc instruction and the commented hooks: frontmatter pattern both agent gates require - gsd-core/bin/shared/model-catalog.json: every shipped agent needs a profile entry (#3229) - copilot-install / kilo-upgrades / qwen-upgrades: expected agent list and the 34->35 roster boundary - execute-wave-post-gate-pipeline-e2e: execute:wave:post legitimately carries one step now. Asserted as an exact shape — one step, capId live-dom-uat, ref.agent gsd-dom-verifier, onError skip — so it stays a real guard against accidental change rather than being relaxed Two findings worth naming: mcp-tool-inheritance (#2526) rejected the agent for documenting mcp__playwright__* while its tools: line withholds it — a dead instruction that invites the agent to claim a path it cannot take. The prose now names the Playwright MCP family without the dispatchable token, in both the agent and the capability fragment. runtime-launcher-parity rejected the new gsd_run call: each fenced block is its own shell, so a workflow step file invoking gsd_run needs its own canonical preamble. Propagated with scripts/sync-runtime-launcher.cjs. That script also normalizes explore.md, which is unrelated pre-existing drift the parity check tolerates, so it is reverted to keep this diff scoped. The emitted-drift ack supersedes the spent #3370 entry for execute-phase.md — it is merged into next, so its ripple is absorbed at the base and it can no longer clear anything. That is the same supersede the #3370 entry itself performed on the spent #3324 fragment. Its unrelated execute-plan.md entry is untouched. Verified on the remote runner. Refs #2856 * fix(#2856): drop the stale emitted-drift ack entry The automated-ui-verification.md entry was written speculatively rather than from a reported growth, and the check names that precisely: an ack "written or reworded in THIS diff, but nothing here needed it, so it explains nothing". The growth tier keys on the bare filename as it appears under gsd-core/workflows/ or agents/. automated-ui-verification.md is nested under verify-work/steps/, so it was never in the tracked set — only execute-phase.md was ever reported, both before and after the launcher preamble landed.

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

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

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

Tom Boucher	1adf6d2245	fix(#3620): point the docs at files that actually exist (#3658) ... * fix(3620): point the docs at files that actually exist docproof found 34 stale references; the reporter hand-read all 34 and reported the 8 that are real, explaining why the other 26 are deliberate (files the documents themselves label legacy or "superseded by", and one pre-Diataxis link label whose target still resolves). Those 26 are left alone — re-touching them would contradict the issue's own analysis. Every claim was re-verified against git ls-files at HEAD before editing. docs/INVENTORY.md said its roster is anchored by six drift-control tests. Five are gone (commands-doc-parity, agents-doc-parity, cli-modules-doc-parity, hooks-doc-parity in 5d8a8c4d; command-count-sync in fbf30792), so the sentence now names the one that exists. Whether one test is sufficient coverage is a maintainer question the issue explicitly declined to answer, so no new drift tests are proposed here. The four translations were a revision further behind, each naming a seventh test deleted in ae8bb707 that the English file had already dropped. All four now match. Renamed targets corrected in CONTEXT.md, VERSIONING.md, docs/CONFIGURATION.md and the update workflow. The new test names carry no issue-NNN- prefix, which is what lint-regression-test-names requires, so they are the correct targets. docs/TESTING-SUITES.md is the one that could cost somebody time: it INSTRUCTED contributors to add an acknowledgment to the legacy drift-ack file, which CONTRIBUTING.md says to never use. Rewritten from the real workflow — per-PR fragments under the drift-acks directory, and a spent base-side ack is re-armed by rewording that fragment's reason in place, never by adding a duplicate, since two sources naming one path is a hard error. docs/skills/discovery-contract.md's heading named a query module deleted in 11918dcc. The section was REMOVED rather than retargeted: its documented behavior (skip the deprecated root) is not what the surviving code does — skill-manifest includes that root marked deprecated:true — so retargeting would have documented something false. Found and fixed inline, same class: VERSIONING.md described an SDK bundling step the release workflow does not have (zero such mentions in that file); CONFIGURATION.md and four translations named a dead model-catalog triple collapsed by ADR-457. Dead config removed: the changeset lint's user-facing prefix list still carried two retired sdk entries. git ls-files -- 'sdk/*' returns nothing. No test pins that array. Left deliberately: the comment explaining the retired catalog path, the install regression test that reconstructs the old broken layout to prove it fails, and the generated test-timings cache. Each is a legitimate mention of a dead path, not drift. Note lint-removed-but-needed cannot catch this class: it diffs baseRef...HEAD, so it only sees files deleted in the change under review. These were orphaned by PRs that predate the lint. A repo-wide existence audit would need a suppression mechanism for the 26 deliberate mentions above; that is a feature, not part of this fix.

Tom Boucher	ac1b6d679f	enhance(#3618): fold fallow-runner onto the canonical binary resolver (epic #3411 Phase 2) (#3633) ... * chore(#3618): fold fallow-runner onto the canonical binary resolver Epic #3411 Phase 2. src/fallow-runner.cts was the fourth divergent implementation of Windows binary resolution the epic enumerated — candidateNames, isExecutableFile, findInPath, findInNodeModules, 40 lines. All four are deleted; resolveFallowBinary is one seam call. Two OPT-IN options were added to resolveExecutableBinary to make the fold behavior-preserving, both defaulting off so Phase 1's callers are byte-identical: prependPaths dirs searched before env.PATH, in order, through the identical per-directory candidate logic. This expresses node_modules/.bin-first precedence without env surgery — the rejected alternative re-introduced the spread-loses-the-proxy hazard the Windows lane caught in Phase 1, at every future call site instead of once. requireExecutable POSIX-only accessSync(X_OK); a no-op on win32 where mode bits do not mean execute. Opt-in rather than default because unconditional X_OK breaks #3445's suite, which stages candidates with plain writeFileSync and never sets an exec bit — the repo bans chmod in tests — so every one would resolve to null on POSIX. Deliberate behavior change on Windows: fallow's prior candidate list ended in a BARE fallow. The seam never tries a bare name there, so an extensionless file beside fallow.cmd is no longer resolved. That is the fix, not a regression — the extensionless file is npm's POSIX sh shim, which CreateProcess cannot run (#3275). Rows 7 and 8 of the design record it. Defect found while working, fixed inline: the resolution order was documented BACKWARDS as PATH-then-.bin in structural-pre-pass.md, docs/INVENTORY.md and four INVENTORY translations. The code has always been .bin first, and .bin first is correct — a project-local tool should beat a global one. The archived changeset is left alone as a historical record. fallow-runner had no test file at all. tests/fallow-runner.test.cjs is new (F1-F15) and the seam options are pinned by S1-S12 folded into the existing dispatch suite. RED proven by execution: with both source files stashed and build:lib re-run, 7 of 27 probe cases failed. Refs #3411 * chore(#3618): backfill changeset pr number 3633 * fix(#3618): assert both platform contracts in F4 instead of a POSIX-only premise Windows CI on #3633 failed F4. The test monkeypatched accessSync to throw and asserted resolveFallowBinary returned null — but that premise, that the X_OK check is consulted at all, is POSIX-only by design. requireExecutable is a deliberate no-op on win32 because Windows mode bits do not mean execute, so the staged fixture correctly resolved there. 40-design.md's negative-space section already states this carve-out verbatim. The test contradicted the design it was written from: fixtures were made platform-adaptive in the previous commit, and this assertion was left platform-blind. F4 now asserts BOTH contracts — null on POSIX, resolves on win32 — rather than skipping either. A t.skip on one lane would have been green and would have left the win32 carve-out unpinned by fallow's own entry point. Audited every other row for the same class. F1-F3, F5, F6, F11-F15 hold on both platforms; F7-F10 and S1-S12 inject platform explicitly and are unaffected. F4 was the only row with a single-platform premise. The local probe runs on one platform and structurally cannot catch this, which is why it was green — that limitation is now stated at the top of the probe so a green probe is not mistaken for platform coverage. The win32 branch was proven by injecting platform:'win32' with accessSync throwing and asserting it still resolves. Refs #3411 --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-18 15:32:57 -04:00
Tom Boucher	3ab0007164	enh(#2875): materialization primitives — durable user-artifact staging and descriptor-authoritative agents (#3600) ... * fix(#2875): stage user artifacts durably across install wipes (#1874-F19) preserveUserArtifacts held user files only in an in-memory Map across the wipe, so any process death between preserve and restore lost them outright. Seven call sites, not the four the issue records. Three of them never called the helper at all - they open-coded the same read/wipe/write - so searching for callers under-counted by construction; the extra sites were found by sweeping for the pattern instead. The worst is the mainline install path, where the crash window spans the entire gsd-core tree copy rather than a single rmSync. Adds src/user-artifact-staging.cts: durable on-disk staging with a record written after the copies land as the commit point, plus recovery of orphaned batches on the next run - without recovery the staged bytes survive but the user's file is still gone, which would pass its own test while delivering nothing. Routes copyPreservingSymlink through installFs() so staging cannot bypass the install fs seam, and reunites its symlink-safety docblock with the function it documents. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#2875): amend ADR-3574 with four claims disproved by implementation Implementing Phase 6 disproved four statements the ADR rests on. The central decision - no single materializer - is unaffected and stands. Corrected: decision 3 was already satisfied, so nothing was extracted; the agents-bypass runtime set omitted claude, kilo and opencode, and closing it needed three new pieces of descriptor contract rather than proceeding on its own terms; three of the four blockers the layout comment names were already stale; and F19 is seven call sites, not four. Records the generalizable lesson: the defect is the pattern of holding user data in memory across a wipe, not the helper, so searching for callers of the helper under-counts by construction. Also resolves the ADR's open question on USER_OWNED_ARTIFACTS membership, and notes that copyPreservingSymlink needed routing through the install fs seam before it could be reused. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2875): close dangling-symlink blind spot and harden staging recovery An adversarial review found the F19 staging work shipped red and unsafe. Root cause, shared by two arbitrary-write findings: hasExistingSymlinkBetween missed dangling symlinks in both its root check and its per-segment walk, because it probed with existsSync, which is false for a link whose target does not exist. Fixing only the new module would have reused a guard that was itself blind. This guard protects the whole install tree. Recovery no longer throws: it degrades per entry and per file, so one bad batch cannot block the others. Previously an unrecoverable entry propagated out of the first statement of install and uninstall, before the cleanup that would have removed it - wedging the installer permanently. Partial fs adapters now throw on any omitted method instead of silently reaching the real filesystem, closing the trap that let a test poison list pass while real IO happened. Staged names must be flat, recovery refuses a dangling destination symlink, and a batch whose recovery genuinely failed is no longer swept - it was discarding the only durable copy of the file it had just failed to restore. Replaces three tests that could not fail, including the one labelled negative proof. Known limitation, documented not closed: concurrent installs sharing a staging key can still lose a batch. A real fix needs a cross-process lock. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * enh(#2875): make the descriptor authoritative for the agents kind Deletes the inline agent-staging loop in bin/install.js and the _DESCRIPTOR_AGENTS_RUNTIMES set, so every runtime materializes agents from its capability descriptor instead of an inline hostBehaviors dispatch. Closing it needed three pieces of contract the descriptor pipeline never had, all reducible to one missing input - per-agent resolution context: a frontmatter-extensions step for claude's effort and disallowedTools, per-agent model-override resolution for kilo and opencode, and a named branding converter for hermes, whose rewrite data was already declared. Seven runtimes were on the loop, not the six the design recorded - kimi-code was found by a golden fixture, not by analysis. claude-local and kimi-code both silently lost their agents mid-change; the fixtures caught both and the cause was fixed rather than the fixtures regenerated. A parity harness gates the migration: both pipelines over identical inputs, byte-identical output including filenames, per runtime. It is demonstrated red before being trusted. Surface and install paths converge for all seven, which also fixes surface previously writing no agents for these runtimes. Codex's config.toml strip stays put - it mutates host config, which no descriptor kind models. Also routes install-model-override-resolver and install-effort-resolver through the install fs seam. Both leaked real filesystem IO from the install call tree; the stricter adapter is what exposed them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#2875): record the agents-descriptor migration and correct the ADR count The _DESCRIPTOR_AGENTS_RUNTIMES allow-list no longer exists, so the host integration guide told readers to join a set that is gone. Replaces that with what is now true - declare an agents entry and it installs, on the surface path as well as install - and points anyone needing a per-agent transform at the three extension points rather than at a new inline branch. Corrects the ADR amendment: seven runtimes were on the inline loop, not six. kimi-code was found by a golden fixture going red, not by reading. That is the third short count this phase, all from enumerating by symbol or set membership when the thing that matters is a behavior. Adds the Changed changeset for the surface-path convergence. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#2875): amend ADR-2866 - claude global always wrote agents on disk The claude row's global=[skills] described what capability.json declared, not what the installer wrote. bin/install.js's inline agent-staging loop was never scope-gated and never consulted the descriptor, so a claude --global install has always written agents/gsd-*.md. Phase 6 closes the gap by deleting that loop and declaring agents on claude's descriptor at global scope. On-disk bytes are unchanged - the golden fixtures did not move, which is the evidence that the descriptor, not the installer, was incomplete. #2218 is unaffected: agents are not trigger-bearing, so the wider row does not introduce a new shadowing case. Records the warning that an incomplete descriptor is invisible while a second code path silently does its work, and only surfaces when the two are forced into agreement. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2875): close review findings across staging, agents and the parity harness Two independent reviews of this branch found defects the local gates missed. Security: a dangling symlink at a migration destination allowed writing outside configDir - the same class this change claimed to close, missed at the terminal write of the flow being added. The staging-root resolver threw as the first statement of install and uninstall, so a hostile symlink bricked both, and symlinked-configDir users lost uninstall as well as install; it now degrades instead of aborting. Recovery gained a source-side symlink check and now refuses a relative destDir, which resolved against cwd. Converter dispatch gained a runtime allowlist - lint-time validation stopped mattering once this branch promoted that dispatch from the surface path to real installs. Correctness: claude --local --minimal exited 1 because the minimal profile legitimately yields zero agents and the new path treated that as a failure. cline --local silently lost its agents - its descriptor declared none while the deleted loop wrote them unconditionally. The agents prune was widened to any gsd-* entry and destroyed user files it never owned. The parity harness, on which the migration's safety argument rested, drove a synthetic registry and never byte-compared the shipped descriptors; two of its trap rows could not fail. It now drives the real registry across 13 runtime-scope rows including kimi-code and cline-local, and its red-proof is demonstrated by corrupting a live capability.json. Three goldens that had encoded the cline regression as expected behavior were corrected. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2875): close findings from both mandated review engines /security-review found the staging source-side walk honouring GSD_ALLOW_SYMLINKED_DEST, an opt-in documented as relaxing only the write destination. A symlinked files/ component dereferenced because copyPreservingSymlink lstats the leaf only, so an intermediate link is followed. The source walk no longer honours the opt-in; the destination check still does. /code-review spec axis found this branch had reintroduced its own bug: migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill's new symlink refusal threw unguarded after the legacy dir was wiped and before the staged batch was restored, so a planted symlink bricked uninstall permanently and orphaned the batch. Refusal kept, abort removed. kimi-code local silently lost its agents, the same class as the cline bug, and the parity harness recorded that exclusion as intentional - the third test in this branch to pin a regression as correct. --minimal now creates an empty agents/ dir that never existed. Behaviour restored rather than softening the changeset, so its byte-identical claim stays true. Standards axis: try/finally removed from twelve test bodies, fast-check properties added for parseOwnerPid, boundary coverage at the grace window and the ancestor-probe depth, a parity assertion for the staging-root helper duplicated across two files, and the 8-deep config walk deduplicated. Records 60-review.json with every finding and disposition from five passes, including the smells left unfixed and why. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2875): prune stale agents unconditionally in minimal mode The previous round stopped an empty agents/ directory being created when the resolved profile yields no agents. That was implemented by skipping the agents kind entirely, which also skipped its stale-agent prune - so a full to minimal downgrade left stale gsd-* agents behind. The deleted inline loop pruned unconditionally and only skipped writing. Those are three separate conditions, not one: prune always, write only when there is something to write, create the directory only when writing. Both call sites now run _removeGsdEntries before the empty-staged early exit. The symlink-escape guard moved with it, since the prune also touches dest. Codex .toml agents and the config.toml stanzas are cleaned again, and user-owned agents are still preserved. The agents/ directory is left in place after a prune empties it, matching every sibling kind - none of them remove the destination directory itself. Golden fixtures confirmed byte-identical: the prune is a no-op on a fresh install, so fixture generation is unaffected. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#2875): document interrupted-install recovery for user-owned files The durable-staging fix is invisible to the user it protects. Someone whose install died mid-flight has no way to know USER-PROFILE.md was staged before the delete, that the next run restores it, or that recovery happens at the start of that run rather than in the background. Written as the task the user has - finish the interrupted command - rather than as a description of the mechanism, and states what it will not do: overwrite a file already present, or touch staging belonging to another install still running.

The failure direction was the dangerous one - a metacharacter would have made the match more permissive, so the row would pass when it should fail. That matters here because J8 exists precisely because an earlier revision was a tautology; the rewrite reintroduced a different way for the same assertion to stop discriminating. Replaced with a line-wise exact match, so no regex is constructed at all. Swept the other test files this branch adds; no sibling instances. lint:ci passed on the original - lint-no-adhoc-regex-escape matches a full metachar-escape copy, so a single slash replace slipped under it.

Tom Boucher	a4a02a7a01	enhance(#2874): return the executed plan and route install IO through a seam (#3568) ... * test(#2874): add failing-first gate for the executed-plan return Four rows from the matrix's red-first order. E3 pins the one early return, for the opencode family, where a void-shaped hole would otherwise survive unnoticed. E13 sweeps every runtime in the registry - enumerated from the registry rather than hardcoded, so a runtime added later cannot slip past. F2 proves absence of real filesystem contact rather than merely that the happy path ran, which is the difference between a complete seam and a partial one. G1 and G3 are the additive guard and must be green before and after. G3 deliberately leaves the two existing adapter test doubles untouched: if this change required editing them it would not be additive, and the acceptance criterion would be unmet. No production code. All 19 runtimes install without throwing today, so E3 and E13 fail on the undefined comparison alone. Refs #2874 * feat(#2874): return the executed plan and route install IO through a seam installRuntimeArtifacts returned void, so its correctness was observable only by re-reading disk. It now returns what it executed - per kind, per scope - including on the combinedFamilyInstall path, which was the one early return where a void-shaped hole would have survived unnoticed. Failure still throws rather than becoming an ok:false return, so control flow is unchanged for both existing callers. A best-effort cleanup that fails is still swallowed, but is now visible in the returned value rather than silently absent. The fs seam is ambient rather than threaded. Explicit deps through install-profiles and the 3000-line conversion module was impractical; the tradeoff, the synchronous-only re-entrancy assumption, the restore guarantee and the partial-adapter fallback trap are all documented at the seam. findInstallSourceRoot and its sibling stay unrouted by design - they locate the package's own source, not the install destination. readCmdNames keeps a second implementation because the standalone CLI that owns the original cannot require the compiled adapter without a build-order dependency on its own output. A parity test fails if the two ever disagree. Refs #2874 * chore(#2874): gitignore the new build artifact install-fs-adapter.cjs is tsc output from src/install-fs-adapter.cts, not a tracked source file. It was added to eslint's ignore list but not to .gitignore, so it landed as a tracked file - the third time this step of the new-.cts ripple has been missed on this epic. Refs #2874 * fix(#2874): close two seam leaks and correct a false comment A correctness review found the seam still leaked in two places, both subtler than the three already closed. readGsdCommandNames was routed when it should not have been: it reads the package's own commands directory, which a destination-fake is never seeded with, so under a fake adapter it returned an empty or wrong roster instead of failing loudly. It now reads real fs, matching the precedent already documented for findInstallSourceRoot. cleanupStagedSkills ran raw rmSync from a process exit handler, which is real filesystem work deferred past the point where withInstallFs has restored - the one thing the synchronous-only contract exists to exclude. Staging now captures the adapter that created each directory and cleanup replays it, so a real install cleans up exactly as before and a fake-staged path never reaches the real filesystem. Also corrected a comment claiming the migration reads were an unrouted, untested residual gap. They are routed and exercised; a comment understating the seam is as corrosive as one overstating it in a module whose trust rests on being honestly documented. Refs #2874 * test(#2874): migrate the exemplar group and cover the matrix AC3's exemplar migration lands in place: the qwen install group now asserts skills and agents destinations from the returned plan in one deepStrictEqual instead of probing the filesystem for each. Nine facts the old probes established were enumerated first. Two moved to the value assertion; seven were retained deliberately - per-file SKILL.md existence, the VERSION file written outside this function, the manifest content, and the post-uninstall absence checks all sit outside the plan's per-kind contract. A migration that quietly asserts less looks like a win and is a regression, so the enumeration is the guard rather than the line count. Also implements the rest of the matrix: the executed-plan shape, adapter failure modes, the security-boundary rows including a fake that cannot certify an install the real filesystem would refuse, cleanup visibility, and two seeded property tests. Only the two external CI gates are left unticked, because self-certifying them would be a claim rather than a check. Refs #2874 * fix(#2874): restore streaming hashes and derive F2 from the boundary rule The checkpoint found three things reasoning had missed. sha256File had been converted from raw-fd streaming to a single readFileSync on the assumption that GSD artifacts are never large. A test named for exactly that contract already existed and went red. Streaming is restored, now routed through the adapter, which gains openSync, readSync and closeSync. The contract was the specification; the assumption was not. Three existing tests inject faults by monkeypatching real fs. They broke because mkInstallTempDir stopped calling real mkdtempSync, not because of any binding subtlety - the real adapter was already late-bound. It now calls the real function when no fake is injected, so a monkeypatch applied after import is still seen and the additive contract holds. F2 poisoned real fs by method, so a deliberately unrouted package-source read failed a correct design. It now poisons by path: destination IO is forbidden, package-source IO is allowed and positively asserted. The claim was always zero real destination IO, and the test now derives from that rule instead of coincidentally matching it. Refs #2874 * docs(#2874): add the contributor how-to for plan-based test migration The phase gate caught a real gap. The docs plan was Reference plus Explanation only, and every CI check would have passed, because the docs-required lint only verifies that some file under docs/ moved. But this phase exists to demonstrate a pattern for follow-on work, and that work is other contributors migrating probing test groups. The sequence has two live traps - a partial fake silently falls back to real fs, and the seam is ambient and synchronous-only - plus one discipline nobody infers: enumerate the facts before converting, or you assert less and call it a win. The page carries the qwen migration's arithmetic, nine facts enumerated and only two converted, because a reader seeing only the diff would reasonably conclude the pattern is to replace probes wholesale. No locale mirrors: none of the four carries any contributor-only how-to, so a single translated file would manufacture parity rather than provide it. Refs #2874 * chore(#2874): backfill changeset pr number * test(#2874): normalize both sides of the G1 tree comparison G1 failed on Windows only, deterministically on both shards. The defect was in the test helper, not production. _computePathPrefix posix-normalizes the resolved config dir unconditionally, so on Windows the path embedded in every emitted SKILL.md body is forward-slash form. hashDirTree stripped against the raw backslash path from mkdtempSync, so the substring never matched and each install's unique temp suffix stayed baked into every file - all fifteen skill bodies hashed differently for two runs that had written identical bytes. Both sides are now normalized unconditionally rather than gated on path.sep, matching the rule this repo already records: backslash paths arrive on Linux too. Production code is untouched and was verified correct. Normalizing this away on the production side would have hidden a real portability bug if one had existed.

Tom Boucher	c5b83cb050	chore(#3560): delete two unreachable workflows, gate workflow reachability in lint (#3564) ... * chore(#3560): delete two unreachable workflows, gate reachability in lint discovery-phase.md and plan-milestone-gaps.md shipped to all 19 runtime install trees with no command, agent, or skill referencing them. plan-milestone-gaps' command was deleted by #2790 and the workflow was left behind; discovery-phase's own header claimed a caller in plan-phase.md's mandatory_discovery step, and that step does not exist — plan-phase.md contains zero occurrences of "discovery". docs/INVENTORY.md asserted discovery-phase.md was an alternate entry for /gsd-new-project. new-project.md never referenced it. The row and the matching note sentence are removed across all five locales rather than corrected. Adds rule 6 to lint-command-contract: every shipped workflow must be reachable from a loader, walking the transitive closure over the three reference shapes this repo uses. The closure seeds ONLY from commands/agents/skills, so a workflow that references only itself and a pair that reference only each other are both correctly reported rather than satisfying themselves; a visited set makes reference cycles terminate. The measure is a mention in a LOADER — docs/ and install-tree fixtures deliberately do not count, because scan.md proved a file can be documented and shipped while entirely unreached. Ships blocking, not report-only: #3561 is in this branch's base, so the tree reports 0 unreachable from the start. Closes #3560 * test(#3560): drive rule 6 end-to-end, sweep a stale allowlist, update ADR-0002 Review findings. Rule 6 had no end-to-end coverage: the tests exercised the pure closure with in-memory data, so the wiring — file collection, exit code, diagnostic — was unproven, and #3560's acceptance list explicitly wants a fixture showing the rule FAILS on a planted orphan. Adds an optional --root to lint-command-contract (default behavior unchanged) and four tests driving the real CLI through the process seam against a temp fixture: clean=0, planted orphan=1, orphan referenced only from docs/=1, orphan reachable transitively=0. The docs/ case is what pins the Goodhart defense — a mention outside a loader must not confer reachability. Deletes two tests that were byte-identical to a third and could not assert anything loader-specific, since the closure is source-agnostic by design; that distinction lives in the lint script's file collection and is now covered above. Removes a stale ALLOWLIST entry for discovery-phase.md in planner-language-regression — the exact sweep-miss class rule 6 exists to catch, found in the PR that adds the rule. ADR-0002 described five per-file frontmatter checks; rule 6 is a repo-level reachability graph, so the Decision section now says so. Refs #3560 * test(#3560): cut the bug-3298 test pin on the deleted plan-milestone-gaps workflow The remote runner went red with four failures: tests/phase.test.cjs asserted the plan-milestone-gaps workflow exists and checked its mkdir patterns, so deleting the file broke the test that pinned it. This is the fence the epic describes — the content-sync test IS what keeps an unreachable file alive — and cutting the coupling is what makes the deletion safe. Removes only that arm. The bug-3298 block guards three workflows against phase-dir prefix drift; the import and add-backlog arms and both shared mkdir-pattern helpers are untouched. Worth recording where the sweep failed: my reachability walk covered commands, agents, skills, gsd-core and docs, and lint-removed-but-needed covers .github/workflows, gsd-core, docs and package.json. Neither looks at tests/, so a test-pinned deletion is invisible to both and surfaces only on the remote runner. The how-to added by this PR names that gap explicitly so the next deletion searches tests/ by hand.

sim	147856040b	fix(#2873): close review findings across fences, sanitizer and docs ... Isolated security review found resolveSpecRootReference's fence tracker toggled on any delimiter, so a backtick fence could be closed by a tilde one and an include in the gap was rewritten inside a code block. Fixed by reusing scanFencedBlocks - the canonical engine already behind stripFencedCode and extractFencedBlock - rather than carrying a fourth copy of fence detection, which also closes the duplication the standards review flagged. sanitizeForRender now strips combining marks and zero-width characters alongside the ANSI, control and bidi classes it already handled. Adds the C, E and F matrix rows the spec review found missing, including installer-level coverage that spawns the real install rather than calling the report builder.

Tom Boucher	895d9df96d	fix(#3477): run untrusted key_links patterns on a linear-time engine (#3496) ... `cmdVerifyKeyLinks` compiled `must_haves.key_links[].pattern` from plan frontmatter with `new RegExp()` and tested it against whole file contents, so a nested-quantifier pattern such as `(a+)+$` hung `verify-phase` indefinitely (CWE-1333). JavaScript has no regex-execution timeout. Untrusted patterns now run on RE2 (re2js), whose match time is linear in input length — the class is closed by the engine, not by a heuristic screen. The screen lost in the ADR-0174 consolidation was deliberately NOT restored: it never worked, since `(a|a)*$`, `((a+))+$`, `(a+){2,}$` and `(a{1,3})+$` all evade it. A refused pattern's matcher returns false for every input, so it cannot report a match no matter what the caller does. The engine is vendored at gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/re2js.cjs because gsd-core/bin/** is copied into installed trees with no node_modules; runtime dependencies are unchanged. New ESLint rule local/no-external-require-in-bin enforces that invariant, which had been documented in a comment since the #3024/#2071 bug class and enforced nowhere.

New src/token-scanner.cts generalizes hooks/lib/git-cmd.js's proven token-walk (#3129 — "has not re-opened"): tokenizeShellLike (quote-aware shell tokenizer, byte-identical port) and indentWidth (bullet-nesting depth). git-cmd.js migrates onto tokenizeShellLike with zero behavior change (parity-asserted against every existing #3129 fixture in tests/worktree-safety.test.cjs's folded block); isGitSubcommand's phases 1-3 (env-prefix skip, executable check, global-option consume) extracted into skipToSubcommand, shared with the new extractBranchArgument (git checkout -b / git branch <name>) — a new capability exercising the seam on the domain the ADR names, not a migration of existing duplicated logic (none existed). Fixes #3169: src/decisions.cts's parseDecisionLines couldn't distinguish a cross-reference bullet nested under an open decision from a fresh malformed declaration attempt. An earlier bold-run-content-classification design was tried and disproven against the repo's own existing FIX-B fixtures (D-02, "no colon no dash") before being adopted — both have identical shape under any content-only rule. Nesting depth (via indentWidth) is the actual distinguishing signal: a bullet indented deeper than the currently-open decision's own bullet is elaboration, folded into its text like a continuation line, never tested against the parse-miss guard. A bullet at the same-or-shallower indent is unchanged. Scope-narrowing disclosed, not silent: of the ADR's four named bugs (#3197, #3169, #2570, #2528), three no longer need this phase's work. were independently fixed and closed since the ADR was authored — #2570's fix is already a correctly-bounded regex per the ADR's own decidability test (no scanner needed); #2528's fix is a deliberate, twice-reviewed non-scanner design (its own code comment records a scanner-based attempt that regressed a symmetric case and was reverted) that this phase does not disturb.

Corrected in .gsd/phase/chore-3414-tokenizer-first-seam/50-test-matrix.md.

Tests only — src/text-lines.cts does not exist yet, so tests/text-lines.test.cjs fails with MODULE_NOT_FOUND at its require line, which is the intended RED. The frontmatter.test.cjs additions drive #3360 (confirmed-bug) fail-first: parseMustHavesBlock currently returns [] for every must_haves block on a CRLF-authored plan file, because \r is its own LineTerminator in ECMAScript and two /m-anchored \s* patterns can absorb it, inflating a captured indent by one character and tripping the "not nested under must_haves" guard. Verified locally against the current (unfixed) compiled module: both the direct repro and the silent-exit "blank line before must_haves:" variant return [] today. A parity property test (crlf vs lf must deep-equal for every block name) matches a pattern this maintainer has required repeatedly for prior CRLF fixes in this codebase (Cortex-recorded, verify_intent=held). The no-crlf-fragile-split.rule.test.cjs additions lock the eslint rule's future fix-hint text (pointing at splitLines()) and its self-reference non-violation (the seam's own correct \r?\n split must never flag itself).

Adds splitLines/normalizeEol/ detectEol/joinLines and migrates frontmatter.cts onto it. parseMustHavesBlock (#3360, confirmed-bug) returned [] for every must_haves block on a CRLF plan file. Root cause: \r is its own LineTerminator in ECMAScript, so under /m two \s*-anchored indentation lookups could match at the position INSIDE a \r\n pair and absorb the terminator, inflating the captured indent by one character and tripping the "not nested under must_haves" guard. Two silent exits, one with a diagnostic and one without (a blank line before must_haves: hits the silent path). Fixed by converting both lookups from a whole-string /m match to split-then-scan — splitLines first, then a per-line, non-/m match — the same structural pattern parseYamlRegion (30 lines away in the same file) already used safely. Nothing downstream of the two lookups changed; blockLines is now sliced from the already-split array instead of re-splitting a substring, but its contents are unchanged for LF input, and the per-line dash/kv parsing loop is untouched. A parity property test (CRLF and LF plans parse to identical must_haves for every block name) matches a pattern this maintainer has required repeatedly for prior CRLF fixes in this file's neighborhood (Cortex: 7 recorded decisions, verify_intent -> held). frontmatter.cts's other .split(/\r?\n/) call sites (parseYamlRegion, isFrontmatterShaped, sliceTopLevelFrontmatterSegments, spliceFrontmatter) are rerouted onto splitLines — a literal 1:1 substitution, zero behavior change, since splitLines IS that same regex plus a type guard. The 4 scripts/normalizeLineEndings copies (gen-registry, gen-loop-host- contract, gen-capability-registry, gen-context-index) are deleted and rerouted onto normalizeEol, which strips a bare unpaired \r exactly like the deleted copies did (not just \r\n pairs) -- verified against each script's own --check mode against its real generated output. local/no-crlf-fragile-split widens from tests/ to src/**/*.cts, with its fix-hint message now naming splitLines() instead of the raw regex -- the prohibition finally has a primitive to point at. Detection logic unchanged in this phase (deliberate scope limit, see design doc Known limits: the rule doesn't yet recognize safeReadFile/platformReadSync as a content source, and has no detector for the \s-adjacent-to-anchor shape that is #3360's actual mechanism -- the CLASS is converged by the direct fix + regression test regardless). joinLines/detectEol are NOT wired into frontmatter.cts's own write path (cmdFrontmatterSet/Merge -> platformWriteSync) -- verified that platformWriteSync already, unconditionally converts CRLF->LF on every .md write today as a pre-existing policy owned by a different module, and ADR-3212's backward-compatibility clause rules out a file-format change in any phase.

This is the exact defect class ADR-3212 exists to close, playing out again one phase after Phase 1 hit the same shape ("the new lint rule -- once live -- found 27 more"). Per CLAUDE.md's no-defer rule, fixed inline rather than deferred or suppressed; there is no established suppression convention for this rule in src/ and inventing one now would undermine the point of widening it. audit.cts, broken-windows.cts, core-utils.cts, init.cts, milestone.cts, phase.cts (x3), profile-output.cts, roadmap.cts (x2): bare-\n splits or regex character classes widened to \r?\n / [^\r\n], each following the same pattern already established migrating frontmatter.cts. phase-estimation.cts: `\r?(?:\n|$)` restructured to `(?:\r?\n|\r?$)` -- already semantically CRLF-safe, but the rule's lexical scanner doesn't recognize \r? guarding a group (only \r? immediately before a literal \n). Verified the two forms are equivalent across all four EOL/EOF cases before restructuring, not assumed. roadmap-upgrade.cts needed two coupled sites, not the one flagged line: computeMigrationPlan and applyMigration must agree on line representation for the lines[edit.lineIndex] === edit.from equality check to hold, and the write-back needed joinLines + detectEol -- a plain lines.join('\n') was silently flattening a CRLF ROADMAP.md to LF wholesale on every migration. This is the first real production consumer of joinLines/detectEol in this epic (frontmatter.cts's own write path doesn't use them -- see the previous commit's Known limits). Fixing the 13 flagged sites surfaced 4 more adjacent same-shape sites the rule doesn't track (.search() and new RegExp(dynamicString) aren't in its tracked call/construction set). Investigated each empirically -- hand-tracing this exact bug class already produced one wrong conclusion earlier in this phase (a detectEol design-doc arithmetic error), so these were verified with real CRLF fixtures rather than reasoned about on paper: - audit.cts (scanTodos): REAL bug, fixed. `bodyMatch.trim().split ('\n')[0]` leaked a trailing \r into a user-visible todo summary on CRLF input -- .trim() only strips the string's outer edges, not a \r sitting mid-string before the first bare \n. Now splitLines(...) [0]. - phase.cts (cmdPhaseInsert, bullet-style branch): REAL bug, fixed. [^\n]* in targetBulletPattern swallowed a line's trailing \r on CRLF input, shifting the computed insert position to land INSIDE the \r\n pair; combined with a hardcoded '\n' bullet separator, a CRLF ROADMAP.md ended up with a mixed CRLF/LF result after an insert. Fixed with two coupled changes (either alone still corrupts, verified both ways): [^\r\n]* in the pattern, and the new bullet's leading terminator now comes from detectEol(rawContent). - roadmap.cts (cmdRoadmapAnnotateDependencies phase-boundary scan): investigated, genuinely safe, left untouched. The .search(/\n#{2,4} .../) boundary-finder and the [^\n]*-based heading match were empirically verified on a 3-phase CRLF fixture -- the only stray \r ends up at the tail of an intermediate phaseSection string that is only ever used for .test()-based idempotency checks, never for an exact-match comparison or written back to disk. No corruption on round-trip. Every fix re-verified: npm run build:lib clean, npx eslint 'src/**/*.cts' --no-cache reports 0 problems (was 13), and each fixed function's existing LF-input tests were spot-checked unchanged. * fix(#3413): apply orthogonal review findings Two isolated review engines (correctness + security) ran against the full diff and found three majors, one real security issue, and several disclosure-worthy minors. All fixed or explicitly disclosed with evidence; nothing deferred. MAJOR — detectEol's tie-break contradicted its own documented contract. Code returned '\n' on a 1:1 crlf/bare-LF tie; every doc (design doc, CONTEXT.md, the function's own comment) says ties resolve to '\r\n'. The existing test masked this by reusing the same tie fixture the buggy code happened to satisfy, rather than a genuine LF-majority case. Root cause: an Edit attempted earlier in this phase to fix this exact arithmetic error was blocked by the tier guard, and a later dispatch was incorrectly told it had already landed. Fixed: condition is now crlfCount >= bareLfCount; the test fixture corrected to a genuine 2:1 majority, with a new explicit tie-case test. MAJOR — phase.cts's cmdPhaseInsert built an EOL-aware bulletEntry via detectEol(rawContent), justified by a comment claiming a hardcoded '\n' corrupts a CRLF ROADMAP.md. False: this write goes through platformWriteSync, whose normalizeContent/_normalizeMd unconditionally converts CRLF->LF for any .md target — the templating was inert dead code, erased before the file is ever written. Reverted to hardcoded '\n', comment corrected to state the true reasoning. The separate [^\n]* -> [^\r\n]* widening one function up (a real splice-position fix, independent of final EOL) was kept. MAJOR — roadmap-upgrade.cts's stated rationale for switching onto splitLines/joinLines was wrong (both functions always agreed on line representation, before and after — the claimed equality-check risk never existed), and the change it justified introduced a real regression: forcing every line onto one dominant terminator silently rewrites untouched lines' EOL on a mixed-CRLF/LF ROADMAP.md. This write path uses raw fs.writeFileSync, not platformWriteSync, so unlike the phase.cts case above the regression is genuinely live. Fixing this took two attempts. The first attempt (revert to split('\n')/join('\n') plus a suppression comment) was correctly blocked by an agent that discovered local/no-crlf-fragile-split is a PROTECTED_RULES entry in tests/portability-rule-disable-ban.test.cjs — a hard, out-of-band, ADR-1703-governed guardrail banning any eslint-disable of this rule anywhere in src/**/*.cts. That agent also detected and correctly disregarded an injected instruction that appeared in tool output during a git operation, per this session's untrusted-content policy. The actual fix: computeMigrationPlan reverted to roadmapContent.split('\n') (confirmed lint-clean — the rule's data-flow tracking only follows a variable's initializer, and this one is declared empty then reassigned in a try block). applyMigration's write-back now splices edits against the ORIGINAL content string via indexOf('\n', pos) boundary-walking instead of a full split/rejoin, so every untouched character — including every line's own terminator — is copied byte-for-byte. A capture-group split (/(\r\n|\n)/, preserving terminators inline) was tried first and empirically confirmed to still trip the rule before this approach was chosen instead. MINOR (security) — roadmap.cts's cmdRoadmapAnnotateDependencies used the STRING form of String#replace, so $&, $`, $', $1-$9 inside must_haves.truths content (author-controlled) were interpreted as replacement directives, splicing unrelated ROADMAP.md text into the result. Fixed with the function-replacement form, which is never pattern-interpreted. Verified before/after with the reviewer's exact repro. Also disclosed rather than silently left: test matrix row 31 (four planned CRLF-materialized regression tests) was never implemented as separate files — corrected to record the actual verification (a manual --check run plus incidental existing coverage via each script's normalizeLineEndings: normalizeEol alias). parseMustHavesBlock's LF behavior was claimed byte-for-byte unchanged but the old yaml.indexOf(blockMatch[0]) substring search could match an unrelated earlier occurrence of the header text (e.g. inside a quoted value) — the split-then-scan fix incidentally also closes this, a strict improvement now recorded in the design doc rather than left implicit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3413): checkpoint 2 red — missing eslint ignore entry, RuleTester config error Checkpoint 2 came back red with 5 failures on the reviewed sha, both gaps genuinely undetectable by any local gate. eslint.config.mjs was missing the 'gsd-core/bin/lib/text-lines.cjs' ignores-list entry (ADR-457: generated .cjs artifacts are excluded from direct type-aware linting). Phase 1's sibling entry (pattern.cjs) sits two lines above it and was the exact precedent read while researching the six-gate ripple for this module -- missed anyway. Caught by tests/repo-invariants.test.cjs's bin/lib coverage-tracking test, which only runs on the remote suite. tests/no-crlf-fragile-split.rule.test.cjs's row-32 case specified both `messageId` and `message` on the same RuleTester error assertion -- ESLint's RuleTester rejects that combination outright. This existed since the test was first authored and was never caught locally: `npx eslint` only lints the file's syntax, it does not execute RuleTester, and local `node --test` is hard-blocked in this repo -- the assertion had never actually RUN before this checkpoint. It was even present in checkpoint 1's failure list, listed there as one of the "expected RED" tests; I matched it against my expected-failures list by test NAME only and never inspected the actual failure detail closely enough to notice it was failing for the wrong reason (a RuleTester config error, not the intended message-text mismatch). Fixed by keeping `message` (the exact-text assertion the test exists to make) and dropping `messageId`. Verified the crlfFragileSplit message string in eslint-rules/no-crlf-fragile-split.cjs matches this assertion character-for-character, and swept every other invalid case in the file for the same double-specification bug (none found -- all pre-existing cases use messageId alone).

Tom Boucher	dc3c81e93d	chore(#3212): src/pattern.cts is the sole owner of runtime-value regex construction — Phase 1 (#3416) ... * test(#3412): failing-first suite for the pattern-construction seam Phase 1 of epic #3212 (ADR-3212 §1/§2/§7). Tests only — src/pattern.cts and eslint-rules/no-adhoc-regex-escape.cjs do not exist yet, so both suites fail with MODULE_NOT_FOUND, which is the intended RED. Locks the measured behavior rather than the assumed behavior: RegExp.escape hex-escapes the leading character of nearly every string ("abc" -> "\x61bc"), so the suite asserts match-equivalence against an inlined historical oracle (the implementation being deleted) rather than byte-equivalence of pattern text — 200 seeded fast-check runs plus a fixed corpus, 0 mismatches. Also locks the latent character-class range bug this phase fixes as a side effect: a hyphen-bearing value interpolated into [...] currently forms a real range and matches an unintended character; post-migration it must not. * chore(#3412): src/pattern.cts owns runtime-value regex construction Phase 1 of epic #3212 (ADR-3212 §1/§2/§6/§7). Adds the pattern seam delegating to the built-in RegExp.escape, deletes every hand-rolled copy, and raises the Node floor to the Active LTS line. The census was low, three times over. ADR-3212 counted 10 copies; a graph query found 12; the new lint rule — once live — found 27 more. The difference is that the census counted named helper FUNCTIONS while the rule counts the escape SHAPE, so inline .replace(<class>, '\$&') copies were never in scope. ADR §1's actual requirement is that no module outside the seam escapes a value for regex use, so all of them are, and CLAUDE.md's no-defer rule makes them this change's work. Fourth consecutive epic here whose copy count was low — the argument for ADR-3180 Amendment 3's "state N found by the guard" rule. Also corrected mid-implementation: the survey reported phase-id.cts's escapeRegex had 0 external importers. It had 8 production importers, making its removal a public-surface change to an ADR-2121-owned module and requiring an update to that ADR's locked-surface test. Blast radius revised Medium-High -> High. RegExp.escape is match-equivalent but NOT text-equivalent: it hex-escapes the leading char of nearly every string ("abc" -> "\x61bc"). Equivalence is proven by a seeded fast-check property test against the deleted implementation as oracle. It also fixes a latent bug: a hyphen-bearing value interpolated into a character class previously formed a real range and matched an unintended character. Node floor 22 -> 24 (RegExp.escape is Node 24+), across engines, .nvmrc, package-lock, 9 CI matrix entries, and 5 docs. The aggregate `required-tests` context is unchanged and no job was added or removed, so branch protection cannot be orphaned by the dropped lanes. Enforced by eslint-rules/no-adhoc-regex-escape.cjs (shape-matched, with structural provenance for reviewed pattern-fragment constants rather than a name heuristic) plus a whole-tree companion guard covering the directories ESLint's globs miss. * fix(#3412): close the _SOURCE guard evasion, correct two false claims Three findings from the orthogonal review pass, all fixed. 1. The ESLint rule's `_SOURCE` provenance fallback was pure identifier- name matching with no binding check, so `new RegExp(userInput_SOURCE)` — a function parameter — sailed past the guard. That is the same rename-evasion class issue #3410 documents, reopened by the very fallback meant to complement the structural check. Now bound to the identifier's actual binding kind: import, require-derived const, or module-scope const; parameters, `let`/`var`, and unresolvable bindings fail closed. Four RuleTester cases cover the evasion and prove the legitimate cross-module case still passes. 2. src/pattern.cts's own header carried the stale pre-correction counts (12 copies / 17 call sites) while CONTEXT.md and the design doc carried the corrected ones (~39 / ~44) — a self-contradiction inside the PR whose entire purpose is deleting divergent copies. Rewritten, preserving the durable lesson: a named-function census cannot see inline copies; only a shape-matching guard can. 3. The claim that all deleted copies threw TypeError on non-string was false. phase-id.cts's copy — the one with 8 external importers — did String(value).replace(...) and never threw. The seam's locked signature does not coerce, so this is a real, now-disclosed behavior change rather than the pure preservation the tests asserted. Audited all 32 invocations across the 8 importers and 6 in-file callers: every one is safe by construction (upstream truthy guard or a string-producing derivation), verified by runtime probe against the compiled modules rather than by TS compilation, which cannot see a runtime undefined. Corrected the false claim in both the test comment and the design doc, and added it to Known limits. * docs(#3412): add Changed changeset for the Node 24 floor The only user-visible break in this phase. The escape-behavior change is internal and match-equivalent, so it carries no user-facing note. * fix(#3412): resolve the seam's require graph in script fixtures and packaging Checkpoint 2 came back red with 90 failures on the node24 lane. Three distinct defects, all introduced by routing scripts/ through the new pattern seam, none reproducible by any local gate: 1. ~82 failures — tests/adr-index-gate.test.cjs and tests/removed-but-needed-lint.test.cjs copy a scripts/*.cjs into an mkdtemp fixture and spawn it there (necessary: those scripts resolve their scan root from __dirname/.., so running the real script would scan the real repo). Each harness hand-listed the dependencies to copy alongside. Adding require('../gsd-core/bin/lib/pattern.cjs') to gen-adr-index.cjs made both lists silently incomplete -> MODULE_NOT_FOUND, plus 17 downstream 'did not emit parseable JSON' failures from the same crash. Fixed as a class, not an instance: new tests/helpers/copy-script- fixture.cjs walks a script's transitive static relative-require graph and copies it, so dependencies are derived and never re-declared. It throws (naming the unbuilt artifact) instead of letting the child die with a bare MODULE_NOT_FOUND. Verified for all four seam-consuming scripts: gen-adr-index, lint-removed-but-needed, gen-loop-host- contract, sync-runtime-launcher. 2. 2 failures — scripts/ ships wholesale but eslint-rules/ does not, so the new scripts/lint-no-adhoc-regex-escape.cjs would be MODULE_NOT_FOUND in a published install (#2858 guard). Excluded from the tarball, matching the existing precedent for gen-emitted- baseline.cjs, which is excluded for the identical reason, and locked with a test modeled on that one. Confirmed against a real npm pack: 890 files, 0 from eslint-rules/, and gsd-core/bin/lib/pattern.cjs present (so the other four scripts' requires are legitimate). 3. 6 failures — tests/phase-id.test.cjs asserted the literal escaped source text ('0*29', 'PROJ-42'). RegExp.escape is match-equivalent to the retired hand-rolled escaper but NOT text-equivalent: it hex- escapes the leading character and all hyphens ('0*\x329', '\x50ROJ\x2d42'). Verified NOT a behavior change — 576 match decisions across all three real interpolation prefixes, zero divergence. Those tests now compile each source into the same heading regex src/roadmap.cts's searchPhaseInContent builds and assert what matches and what does not, including the 'i'-flag canonicalization the hex escape has to preserve. Re-pinning the new literals would have rebuilt the same brittleness one layer down. Adds a test for the property the escape exists for: a dot in '1.2' must not act as a wildcard. Also shares one definition of 'a require' between the packaging guard and the fixture copier, so the two cannot disagree about what they scan. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3412): refuse to copy a fixture dependency outside the fixture root copyScriptWithDeps resolved each relative require and joined the repo-relative result onto fixtureRoot. A require resolving OUTSIDE the repo yields a '../'-prefixed relative path, so path.join climbed out of the fixture and wrote into the surrounding temp dir (verified: repoRoot=/repo + depAbs=/etc/passwd wrote /tmp/etc/passwd). No script in the tree does this today, so this closes an available escape rather than an active one. Refuses via the existing unresolved- require path so the failure names the offending specifier. Covered by a negative proof that the guard fires and that nothing lands outside the fixture. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3412): parse requires instead of pattern-matching them; restore the foreign-prefix contract Applies all findings from the second orthogonal review round, re-run because real code changed after round 1. HIGH (security) — extractRequires stripped BLOCK comments before LINE comments, so a '//' comment containing '/*' opened a phantom block comment, and a '//' inside a string literal truncated the line. Both hid real requires: 'const u="http://x"; require("./real.cjs")' returned [], and four real requires in gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs were invisible. Replaced with a real AST parse via espree. This is ADR-3212's own Decision 4 — tokenizer-first for stateful grammars — applied to the case it describes; comment/string/regex nesting is exactly such a grammar, which is why the regex version was wrong. The function was moved byte-identical out of the #2858 packaging guard, so the bug PRE-DATES this branch and has been a live blind spot there: a shipped script could have required an unshipped path undetected. Fixing it makes that guard strictly stronger than on next. espree is promoted from a transitive eslint dependency to an explicit devDependency rather than relying on hoisting. The script parse attempt sets ecmaFeatures.globalReturn because Node wraps CommonJS bodies in a function, making a top-level return legal — scripts/check-coverage-gate .cjs relies on it, and without the flag the guard throws on a file it is supposed to scan. Verified 0 unparseable across all 324 .cjs/.js under scripts/, bin/, and gsd-core/bin/, and 0 new violations against a real npm pack, so the exact extractor does not newly fail the guard. MEDIUM (security) — the repo-containment check guarded dependencies but not the entry path. One escapesContainment predicate now guards both. LOW (security) — containment was lexical while fs follows symlinks, and a directory symlink could mint a fresh dedupe key per level. realpath now resolves both repoRoot and each dependency before the decision, and the realpath-derived path is the dedupe key. Destination layout still uses the original repo-relative path, so copied trees are unchanged. MAJOR (standards) — the round-1 behavioral rewrite of phase-id tests lost the foreign-prefix contract: every assertion was satisfied by an impl returning [A-Z]+\x2d42, i.e. ANY project code — the exact #3599 bug class the exact-source prevents. The literal assertions it replaced were catching this. Now asserts the compiled regex REJECTS a different prefix with the same number. MAJOR (standards) — the test hand-duplicated production's heading regex with no parity guard (CLAUDE.md's 'Generative Fix Divergence'). Removed the parallel surface instead of policing it: src/roadmap.cts exports buildPhaseHeadingRegex, searchPhaseInContent calls it, the test imports it. Byte-identical .source and .flags verified for both escaped forms. MINOR — '..foo' no longer false-flagged as an escape; the inverted spurious-vs-missing doc claim corrected; the dead allow-test-rule header removed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore(#3412): backfill changeset pr number to 3416 * fix(#3412): make the escape guard's own regex linear, reword an injection-scan collision Two CI failures on PR #3416, both in code this branch added. CodeQL js/redos (high) — REPLACE_CALL_RE's outer alternation let a bracket run be consumed EITHER by the character-class branch OR one character at a time by the trailing catch-all, so a failing match explored both parses of every pair. Measured on the real regex: n=26 -> 204ms, n=28 -> 791ms, n=30 -> 3475ms, a clean 2^n. This script scans repo source, so a file with a long bracket run after '.replace(/' would hang CI outright — a guard against undisciplined pattern construction was itself the worst pattern in the diff. Fixed the way ADR-3212 already prescribes: the catch-all branch now excludes '[' and ']' so a bracket can only be consumed by the class branch (this is what makes it linear), and every quantifier is bounded (the locked bounded-quantifiers decision) as a second line of defense. Now 0ms at n=2000. Disclosed coverage tradeoff, recorded at the constant: a regex literal with a BARE unescaped ']' outside a class is no longer matched by this backstop. No census shape has that form, and the AST rule remains the primary detector. Verified the guard did not go blind doing it: a real census-shape violation is still reported, and an allow-adhoc-regex-escape suppression comment is still honored. Regression test drives the exported findViolations on a 2000-repetition adversarial input and asserts the RESULT. It makes no wall-clock assertion — elapsed-time tests are forbidden — so a regression surfaces as a harness timeout, which is the correct signal. Prompt injection scan — 'must not act as a regex wildcard' in a test comment matched the scanner's jailbreak pattern act\s+as\s+(a|an|if| my). Reworded to 'behave as'. Deliberately NOT allowlisted: silencing a whole test file over one phrase would blunt the scanner permanently, and the comment has nothing to do with injection. Neither failure was reachable from the remote runner — CodeQL and the injection scan are not in that matrix, so the sha it passed was green and still wrong.

sim	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."	2026-08-13 02:56:12 -04:00
sim	e0021a2fed	refactor(#3309): extract health-diagnostic-types leaf module, wire RULES ...

Fixes it by splitting the enums/types (SEVERITY, REMEDY_ACTION, REMEDY_RISK, Remedy, Diagnostic, Rule) into a dependency-free leaf module, health-diagnostic-types.cts, that both sides import instead of each other. health-diagnostic.cts re-exports the enums for existing consumers.

Normalize with .replace(/\\/g, '/'), matching the existing convention used elsewhere in this suite (e.g. tests/branch-no-track-guard.test.cjs:37). * test(#2652): restore the size-growth acknowledgment The rebase dropped tests/emitted-drift-ack.json. #2757/#2758 fixed the ATTRIBUTION axis, but the SIZE-GROWTH axis is independent: diagnose-issues.md (+2086) and quick.md (+230) still need an ack naming them and saying why. Verified: 65/66 without it (both files named), 66/66 with it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2652): convert execute-plan.md Pattern A onto the dispatch-isolation gate Pattern A hardcoded `isolation="worktree"` — Claude Code's own literal — gated only on `workflow.use_worktrees`, with no capability negotiation at all. It is the same defect #2652 fixes at the other four sites, just a different shape: the file contains no RUNTIME variable, so the new detector correctly does not flag it. Concrete break: a Codex user who follows this PR's own newly-documented pattern and sets `workflow.use_worktrees: true` to get isolated dispatch via /gsd:quick then runs a plan through /gsd-execute-plan Pattern A, and hits an unconverted path — either an Agent() call erroring on an unrecognized parameter or silent unisolated execution, depending on host tolerance. Pattern A is a single-agent dispatch site through the host's own subagent tool, so it takes the same treatment as quick.md and diagnose-issues.md: resolve ISOLATION/HARNESS_FLAG through the canonical reference, degrade to sequential on orchestrator-worktree hosts, and substitute the host's declared {harnessFlag} instead of Claude Code's literal. while the area was open. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#2652): add the INVENTORY row for dispatch-isolation-gate.md, refresh CONTEXT Two bookkeeping gaps flagged in review: INVENTORY.md had no row for the new gsd-core/references/dispatch-isolation-gate.md. INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json was regenerated correctly and its --check only diffs a live directory scan against the committed manifest, so CI passed regardless — but gen-inventory-manifest.cjs's own stderr guidance says to add the matching INVENTORY.md row. This is the repo's named "Inventory Drift" pattern. Placed with the dispatch/isolation cluster (worktree-branch-check, runtime-aware-dispatch) rather than alphabetically, matching how that table is grouped. CONTEXT.md's Host-Integration Interface entry still described dispatch.isolation as "declared and negotiated but not yet consumed by any scheduler — Phase 1 of #2584". That was already stale before this PR (execute-phase graduated in Phase 3) and more so now with three single-agent dispatch sites consuming it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(#2652): detect reversed-operand runtime gates; add a permutation property All five reintroduction regexes assumed $RUNTIME on the LEFT of the comparison, so `[ "claude" != "$RUNTIME" ]` — the same gate written backwards — evaded every one of them. Verified against the old patterns before fixing: all four reversed shapes (single bracket, double bracket, test builtin, JS template) scored EVADED. Each comparison shape is now generated in both operand orders from a single template, so a shape cannot be added in one order and forgotten in the other. The mutation table gains the four reversed cases. Also adds the fast-check property review suggested in place of the hand-rolled cases: it generates the cross product of the axes an author actually varies — bracket form, operator, operand order, quoting, spacing, runtime id — so a permutation the hand-written patterns miss surfaces here rather than in production. The 11 explicit cases stay as named regression anchors. execute-plan.md joins the scan's required-identities list now that it is a converted dispatch site.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(#2652): repin the execute-plan.md PROSE_ALLOWLIST line after the rebase The #2751 command-position gate pins its prose exemptions by line number. This branch inserts the dispatch-isolation resolution above the `validated downstream by gsd-tools uat classify-coverage` sentence, moving it from execute-plan.md:387 to :397 — which fired the gate twice for one displacement (an un-allowlisted mention at 397, a stale entry at 387). The prose itself is unchanged from next; only the pin moves. Fixes #2652 * fix(#2652): gate the #2649 base-check on ISOLATION in diagnose-issues.md The rebase onto next merged #2649's pre-dispatch base-check textually, but its degrade flipped USE_WORKTREES after ISOLATION was already resolved, so the degrade never reached the dispatch decision. Gate the block on ISOLATION = "harness-worktree" and degrade ISOLATION itself, the same pairing quick.md already uses. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2652): key quick.md post-dispatch bookkeeping on ISOLATION, not the Claude literal Review Blocker: the manifest append (l.822), worktree merge-back (l.825), and its skip clause (l.839) all conditioned on the literal isolation="worktree" — Claude Code's own rendering of {harnessFlag}. Cursor renders --worktree, so a newly-unblocked isolated Cursor run created a worktree whose committed work was never merged back and never cleaned up, silently. All three now key on ISOLATION = "harness-worktree" at dispatch. The existing parity detector cannot catch this class (its ISOLATION_TOKEN treats the literal as a legitimate marker), so this adds a dedicated literal-condition detector with a discrimination proof against both pre-fix sentences, a benign-mention control, and a positive pin on all three re-keyed conditions. Verified fail-first against the pre-fix quick.md. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2652): scope the use_worktrees=false install stamp to isolation=none runtimes `_stampNonClaudeRuntimeDefaults` rewrote every non-Claude runtime's `workflow.use_worktrees` read to `--default false`. That default resolved before `gsd_run query dispatch-isolation` was ever consulted, so the five runtimes that declare worktree support — cursor (harness-worktree) and codex/opencode/kimi/kimi-code (orchestrator-worktree) — got ISOLATION=none regardless of what they negotiated. The gate this PR migrates dispatch onto was therefore still deciding isolation by runtime name, one layer down. The stamp's #1521 premise was that worktree isolation *was* Claude Code's isolation="worktree" spawn parameter, which no other host honored. #2584 replaced that premise with the negotiated capability. The stamp is now scoped to runtimes whose negotiated isolation really is `none`, where the default it writes is the outcome the resolver reaches anyway. `_negotiatedDispatchIsolation` mirrors routeDispatchIsolation's resolution against the same registry — closed vocabulary, a harness-worktree host must declare its flag, an orchestrator-worktree host must carry a descriptor that resolves — and fails closed to `none` on anything else, so an undeclared or unknown runtime keeps today's behavior. Two #1515 tests pinned the superseded premise for codex and are re-pointed at the new contract rather than deleted: the safety property they protect is now held by the isolation gate's fail-closed resolution, not by a name-scoped install-time default. Verified fail-first — all five assertions red against the pre-fix source, green after. * test(#2652): acknowledge the emitted ripple and re-point the end-to-end stamp proof Scoping the use_worktrees stamp changes emitted output, and two gates caught it. `gsd-core/workflows/execute-phase.md` now differs at emit time for the five hosts that declare worktree support (cursor harness-worktree; codex, opencode, kimi, kimi-code orchestrator-worktree) — the source file is byte-identical, only the stamp is gone. Acknowledged in this PR's fragment. `tests/install.test.cjs`'s real-install assertion pinned the superseded premise end-to-end, asserting codex receives `--default false`. Re-pointed rather than deleted, matching the two unit tests: it now proves codex keeps the unstamped `true` read. A second arm installs windsurf — which declares isolation `none` — and asserts the false stamp is still applied there, so the change cannot silently degrade into "never stamp" without a test noticing. The ack entry collides with `2658-trae-instruction-file-path.json`, which is fully spent (merged via #2925, so all 25 of its entries are present at base and gate nothing) and is pruned for the same reason and by the same rule as the spent `2649-*` fragment this PR already removed. #2566 prunes the same file for the same collision on `new-project.md`; a delete/delete merges cleanly either way, and the base-side cleanup would make both unnecessary. * fix(#2652): re-record the sentinel when a dispatch site degrades isolation Review Blocker B1/B2/B3. Every isolation degrade in a dispatch site is decided in shell, where routeDispatchIsolation cannot see it. That resolver persists whatever it resolved to the run-scoped sentinel as an unconditional side effect (#3045), so a degrade that only reassigns $ISOLATION leaves the sentinel asserting harness-worktree while the dispatch correctly omits the harness flag. The shipped PreToolUse guard reads the sentinel at the instant of the Agent() call and denies that mismatch with exit 2 — the work does not run unisolated, it does not run at all. Latent on this branch and lands on rebase, since 8f75e275 (#3045) is not yet in the merge-base. Four sites now push the final shell-computed value through the same single write path with --force-isolation, matching the idiom #3045 established in executor-isolation-dispatch.md: - quick.md, after the #1941 base-check degrade - diagnose-issues.md, after the config-gate degrades and after #2649's - execute-plan.md Pattern A, before spawning - references/dispatch-isolation-gate.md, both degrade paths, plus a new "Re-record after every degrade" section — the canonical file taught the defect, so fixing only the call sites would leave the source of truth wrong Tests assert the RECORDED value, not $ISOLATION. Asserting the local variable is what let this class through: $ISOLATION was already `none` at every site and the defect was entirely in what reached the sentinel. Each workflow's own degrade block is executed under a gsd_run stub that captures the write, with a fail-first proof that the pre-fix shape records nothing (while $ISOLATION reads `none` in both), plus a coverage guard so a new degrade site cannot skip it. Also corrects the drift-ack rationale (review Minor 5): @-references are eagerly inlined, so extracting the gate does not reduce loaded context. The reason to extract is single-sourcing across five dispatch sites. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(#2652): satisfy the new CRLF-portability and cleanup lint rules in host-integration.test.cjs next's local/no-crlf-fragile-split and no-raw-rmsync-in-tests rules now cover the fenced-block regexes, log-line split, and temp-dir removal this suite added: bash-fence matchers and line counting accept \r\n, and the raw fs.rmSync becomes helpers.cleanup (Windows-EBUSY retry budget). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2652): restore next's 2658 ack fragment, minus the one colliding key trek-e (PR #2728, 2026-08-07): the branch deleted tests/emitted-drift-acks/2658-trae-instruction-file-path.json wholesale while next had modified it. That was correct against the 08-03 base, where the fragment was fully spent; it is wrong against next @ 1d208e5a, which still carries 23 live entries. next's copy is restored byte-identical except for the single key that genuinely collides with this PR's own fragment, gsd-core/workflows/execute-phase.md. Both acks name that path for different deltas -- 2658's is the trae CLAUDE.md replacement-target rewrite, ours is the emit-time _stampNonClaudeRuntimeDefaults ripple from review round 3. Per the ack-lifecycle law (#2789), an entry already at the base is spent and inert, so this PR's entry is the live one and 2658's is dropped. This follows the guidance given on #2566 in the 08-06 round: "Regenerate rather than delete -- the collision is one entry." Verified: lint-emitted-drift-ack ok (0 problems, 357 keys, no cross-source duplicates); emitted-attribution 170/170 with GSD_EMITTED_BASE=upstream/next; host-integration 222/222; runtime-converters 130/130. * fix(#2652): bound the degrade-harness spawn and close the round-6 majors B1 (CI red, ours): tests/host-integration.test.cjs spawned bash with no timeout, violating local/no-unbounded-spawn. `next` deleted the allowlist outright (#3148), so the merge-commit run flags it even though this branch still carries the file's grandfathered entry. Bounded at 15s, with a named failure on timeout/signal rather than an opaque `exited null`. M1: add a parity test between `_negotiatedDispatchIsolation` (install time) and `routeDispatchIsolation` (dispatch time). Both read the same capability registry and the same `resolveOrchestratorExec`, but duplicate the DECISION on top of them across two surfaces with no call edge between them, so neither symbol appears in the other's impact graph and nothing static can catch them drifting apart. The resolver leg drives the real gsd-tools CLI per registered runtime, both ways it is really called: with `--cwd-target` (the executor spawn, which resolves the orchestrator descriptor — the same question install time asks) and without it (the `Resolve ISOLATION` call every dispatch site makes first, which does not). The second leg is what catches an orchestrator host whose descriptor stops resolving: the install would stamp `use_worktrees=false` while the workflow gate still reported `orchestrator-worktree`. M2: add install-level Cursor coverage. A real `--cursor` install, then the gate blocks that install emitted, run against the gsd-tools that install emitted, with the runtime declared through `.planning/config.json` — the tier `resolveRuntime` actually reads — and any ambient GSD_RUNTIME blanked, so the install has to reach the right resolver on its own. It then performs the documented `{harnessFlag}` substitution against the `Agent()` call that install emitted and asserts on the rendered dispatch: exactly one emitted Agent() call carries the slot, it is the gsd-executor / gsd-debugger dispatch rather than some other call in the same file, and rendering it yields `--worktree` with no residual placeholder and no `isolation="worktree"`. This is artifact-level — it proves the emitted wiring, not a live Cursor host invocation. Asserting the shell variable alone would have stayed green if the placeholder were deleted from the emitted dispatch, or drifted onto the reviewer call beside it. M3: diagnose-issues.md inlined a reordered copy of the reference this PR introduces as the single source of truth. It now reads the reference the same way quick.md and execute-plan.md do; the drift-ack entry is corrected to describe what the file actually contains, and to name the four files that reference the gate rather than claiming five. M4: CONTEXT.md still called `resolveOrchestratorExec` UNCONSUMED in the same paragraph this PR edits. It has been consumed since #2584 Phase 3 — routed through `query dispatch-isolation --json` and process-spawned by executor-isolation-dispatch.md — and #2652 adds a second consumer. Every new assertion verified fail-first against a real mutation: cursor's negotiated isolation (breaks the target-bound parity leg), the no-target orchestrator branch in routeDispatchIsolation (breaks the gate parity leg), cursor's harnessIsolationFlag (breaks the resolved value), deleting `{harnessFlag}` from quick.md's emitted Agent() call (breaks the slot), and moving it onto the code-reviewer dispatch (breaks the wrong-call guard). Refs #2652 * fix(#2652): serialize unisolated diagnosis, scope the execute-plan gate to dispatching patterns Round-7 review findings (independent cross-AI pass over the whole PR against the current base). BLOCKER — diagnose-issues.md announced sequential mode and then fanned out. The `orchestrator-worktree` degrade sets ISOLATION=none and prints "debug agents run sequentially on the main working tree", but the spawn step still said "All agents spawn in single message (parallel execution)". On Codex, OpenCode and Kimi that dispatched N unisolated debuggers concurrently against the primary checkout — the exact outcome the degrade exists to prevent, and reachable only because this PR removed the FATAL that used to stop those hosts earlier. Fan-out is now keyed on ISOLATION: parallel only when each agent has its own worktree, one at a time otherwise. BLOCKER — execute-plan.md Pattern B could not dispatch at all on Claude or Cursor. The gate recorded `harness-worktree` to the #3045 sentinel, but only Pattern A carries `{harnessFlag}`; Pattern B's segment executors carry none, and `hooks/gsd-agent-isolation-guard.js` blocks precisely that mismatch with exit 2. Segments are unisolated BY DESIGN — each continues on the working tree the previous one left behind, so per-agent worktrees would break the sequence — so Pattern B now records `none` before its first dispatch and dispatches without the flag. MAJOR — the same gate ran before routing was chosen, so an isolation-`none` host with `use_worktrees=true` hit the fail-closed FATAL even when routing would have selected Pattern C, which is fully inline and dispatches nothing. Resolution now happens after the pattern is known, and Pattern C skips it. MAJOR — tests/host-integration.test.cjs fed `fs.readFileSync` output straight to bash. The `\r?\n` fence regex guards only the delimiter, leaving embedded CR on every line of the captured body — DEFECT.WINDOWS-CRLF-TEST-PORTABILITY, which helpers.cjs documents by name. Now reads through `readFileNormalized`. MAJOR — the "every dispatch-site degrade block re-records" test hand-listed three files, so its name was a claim its scan could not support. The scan is now derived from the workflow/reference tree (SCAN_ROOTS/collectMarkdown hoisted to module scope so there is one definition, not two). Verified fail-first against execute-plan.md — a file the previous scan never opened. The two wave fragments are exempt because they delegate the re-record to per-plan-worktree-gate.md via USE_WORKTREES_FOR_PLAN; that delegation is now ASSERTED, so deleting the delegate fails this test instead of widening a hole silently. MINOR — the changeset claimed the FATAL was gone for "non-Claude runtimes" full stop. Narrowed: isolation-`none` hosts still fail closed when worktrees are explicitly enabled, which is the contract rather than the defect. Two further findings were investigated and rejected, with evidence: - Raw `spawnSync` vs `tests/helpers/process-seam.cjs`: the seam exposes runNode/runGit/runHook and cannot express the `bash -c` harness these tests need; `installAndRead` in this same file is byte-identical to the base and still uses raw spawnSync with an explicit timeout, which is the form the lint sanctions. Migrating only the new call sites would split the file's convention for no safety gain. - `pending-migration-to-typed-ir` on the runtime-converters parity test: the annotation and the rendered-text loop both exist at the merge-base under #3090. This PR extends an already-tracked test rather than adding a new one under a category CONTRIBUTING closes to new tests. Refs #2652 * test(#2652): re-point the execute-plan prose allowlist at its shifted line `PROSE_ALLOWLIST` in tests/no-bare-gsd-tools-command-position.test.cjs keys entries by LINE NUMBER. The previous commit added the post-routing isolation block to execute-plan.md, which pushed the `validated downstream by gsd-tools uat classify-coverage` prose mention from line 397 to 414. That broke the guard in both directions at once: the entry at 397 went stale, and the real mention at 414 became an unallowlisted offender. Caught by CI (7 red jobs, all shard 3/3 plus ubuntu-22) rather than locally, because I verified only the suites I believed the change touched. Any edit to a workflow .md shifts line numbers, and this repo carries line-keyed allowlists — so a workflow edit needs the full suite, not a subset. Refs #2652 * test(#2652): route the new subprocesses through the process seam Retracting a rejection I made on the record. In the round-6 response I argued these call sites could keep a hand-rolled `spawnSync` because the seam exposes only runNode/runGit/runHook and cannot express `bash -c`, and because `installAndRead` in the same file uses that shape. The first half was true and irrelevant, the second half is not a licence: CONTRIBUTING is unambiguous — "Anything that shells out goes through tests/helpers/process-seam.cjs — never a hand-rolled spawnSync/execFileSync in your suite", and "Never use try/finally inside test bodies." `runHook` already documents `interpreter: 'bash'` for running a shell script, so writing the harness to a file complies without extending the seam. I had the rule and the seam's own documentation in front of me and reasoned around both. Converted: - host-integration.test.cjs degrade harness: spawnSync('bash', ['-c', …]) → runHook(scriptFile, [], { interpreter: 'bash' }). - install.test.cjs cursor gate: `which bash` probe → process.platform; the installer spawn → runNode(…, { env: installSpawnEnv({HOME, USERPROFILE}) }), which also blanks ambient GSD_HOME/runtime-location vars that could otherwise make capability discovery host-dependent; the emitted-gate spawn → runHook(gateScript, [], { interpreter: 'bash' }). - Three try/finally test bodies → t.after(). Class-norm timeouts: tests/helpers/timeouts.cjs arrived with this branch's latest base merge, so the literals written earlier (15000/120000/60000) now duplicate PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS and INSTALL_TIMEOUT_MS. Imported instead — that module exists because INSTALL_TIMEOUT_MS had already drifted 60s→120s once after a real bench ETIMEDOUT. Deliberately NOT converted: `installAndRead`'s spawnSync, which is byte-identical to the merge-base and predates this PR — converting shared scaffolding is an unrelated change. Verified equivalent, not assumed: argv/cwd/env/encoding/timeout and every assertion are preserved; t.after() still cleans up on the assertion-failure path the try/finally covered; and the cursor test still resolves Cursor under a hostile ambient GSD_RUNTIME=claude. Refs #2652 * fix(#2652): replace the falsified use_worktrees doc row; distinguish an unresolvable gate from a declared none Round-8 review findings. BLOCKER — docs/CONFIGURATION.md's `Non-Claude note` asserted three things this PR overturns: that worktree isolation "no other runtime honors" (Cursor declares harness-worktree with `--worktree`, and this PR's own install test asserts that flag reaching the emitted Agent() slot), that non-Claude installs default the key to `false`, and that forcing `true` always fails closed. Replaced with the capability-based description, and the `#1515, #1521` citation dropped — those are the two issues whose premise this PR removes. The reviewer flagged that the fix is merge-order dependent, because #2531 rewrites the same row and its replacement text is written in anticipation of this PR landing. Rather than pick an order, BOTH sides are now order-independent: #2531's "Current default … until #2652" paragraph becomes a plain troubleshooting note, and this row states the capability rule without asserting a stamp state. Whichever merges first, the row is correct; the second merge is a textual conflict at worst. MINOR — the gate reported a capability verdict the tool never returned. `ISOLATION=$(… || echo "none")` made a shim-resolution failure, a non-zero exit and an empty stdout indistinguishable from a declared `none`, so a transient query failure aborted /gsd:quick on Claude Code with "runtime 'claude' declares no executor-isolation primitive" — false. The gate now tracks ISOLATION_RESOLVED separately: both paths still fail closed, but only a real verdict claims the host declares nothing; the unresolved branch says it could not resolve and points at the shim. Fixed in the canonical reference so every dispatch site inherits it. MINOR — quick.md:527 cited #2649 for its own degrade; that is #1941, and #2649 is the diagnose-issues/execute-plan gate. Corrected, and the distinction stated so the next reader does not chase it. MINOR — quick.md:413 (manifest init) and :429 (worktree_branch_check embed) still branched on USE_WORKTREES while dispatch, manifest-append, merge-back and the skip clause had all moved to ISOLATION. Safe only by coincidence — both now key on ISOLATION. MINOR — the diff removes a second drift-ack entry (the execute-phase.md key from 2658-trae-instruction-file-path.json), forced by the same duplicate-key lint rule as the 2649 removal. Disclosed in the PR comment; the earlier disclosure covered only one of the two. Verified: lint:ci green; 300/300 across host-integration, fix-1941-quick-worktree-stale-base, execute-phase-wave and workflow-guard. Refs #2652 * test(#2652): anchor the emitted-gate finder on the heading, not the assignment `b89c3fbf` added a finder that located the gate's `Resolve ISOLATION` block by the literal `ISOLATION=$(gsd_run query dispatch-isolation --raw`. `f3bccf21` then split that assignment into `_ISOLATION_RAW`/`ISOLATION_RESOLVED` so a shim failure stops masquerading as a declared `none` — and the finder stopped matching. The test did not report the drift it exists to catch; it reported "emitted dispatch-isolation-gate.md has no Resolve ISOLATION bash block" and went red, and stayed red because the earlier full-suite run was read from a truncated log. Anchored on the heading instead. The workflows tell a dispatch site to run the `Resolve ISOLATION` and `Resolve the harness flag` blocks BY NAME, so the heading is the contract and the body is free to change under it. Verified: 413/413 in tests/install.test.cjs. The test still bites — mutating the gate's `ISOLATION="$_ISOLATION_RAW"` to `ISOLATION=none` turns it red (the emitted gate then resolves cursor to none and exits 1 instead of printing harness-worktree), and reverting restores green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2652): wire the canonical resolver at the one dispatch site that still inlined the old shape Codex review of the whole PR on the new base found one Major, and it was real. executor-isolation-dispatch.md declares references/dispatch-isolation-gate.md canonical at line 10, then kept the OLDER resolver inline: `|| echo "none"`, no ISOLATION_RESOLVED. So the one site that resolves isolation for the wave path collapsed a shim failure into a declared `none` and aborted with "runtime '$RUNTIME' declares no executor-isolation primitive" — false for a Claude or Cursor user whose resolver merely failed to answer. Still fail-closed, so not an unsafe-dispatch hole, but the correction this PR is about was unwired at the site that matters most. Replaced with the gate's exact shape: capture the raw value, track ISOLATION_RESOLVED, and emit the "could not resolve" FATAL when no verdict was learned. Added a regression test in the #2652 dispatch-site parity suite: every file that ASSIGNS from `gsd_run query dispatch-isolation --raw` must carry ISOLATION_RESOLVED, must not use the collapsing form, and must have a distinct unresolved message. Nothing covered this before — install.test.cjs checks the emitted REFERENCE, not each site's own inline copy, which is exactly how the two drifted apart. The test's first draft also flagged quick.md, diagnose-issues.md and execute-plan.md. That was a false positive worth recording: those three @-reference the gate and only make `--force-isolation` re-record calls, which carry no verdict. The predicate now matches an assignment from the resolver, not any mention of it, so it flags sites that can actually be wrong. Verified by mutation: restoring the collapsing line reds the new test. Validated: lint:ci clean; full suite shows the same 7 known failures as the pre-change baseline — #1160 _resolveManifest and the #3053 quick_id host-timezone tests (both reproduce on pristine next @ 33fca50d), plus helpers-cleanup "outside os.tmpdir()", which fails only in a worktree. * test(#2652): close two vacuous-pass holes in the new inline-resolver guard Codex cleared the push and flagged the guard test itself. Both holes were real. SCAN_ROOTS already yields references/dispatch-isolation-gate.md, and the test appended it a second time, so the candidate list was [executor, gate, gate] and `length >= 2` was satisfiable by the gate alone. If the executor site had dropped out of the predicate — the exact regression the test exists to catch — it would still have passed. Paths are deduped and the assertion now pins the two expected inliner identities instead of a count. The collapse detector keyed on `ISOLATION=$(…)`, so `_ISOLATION_RAW=$(… || echo "none")` restored the identical defect while satisfying every other assertion (ISOLATION_RESOLVED still appears in the file). Codex mutation-probed exactly that and it passed. The pattern now matches any assignment target and any `|| … echo` tail. Verified: that mutation now reds the test. Test-only change; the workflow bash is byte-identical to the commit the full suite ran green against. lint:ci clean, host-integration 223/223. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-authored-by: Tom Boucher <trekkie@nomorestars.com>	2026-08-11 17:10:28 -04:00
Tom Boucher	7a7bf19fc1	enhance(#2872): record scope and runtime in the install manifest (#3323) ... * enhance(#2872): record scope and runtime in the install manifest gsd-file-manifest.json gains manifestVersion, runtime and scope, and a new read-only Installed Surface Resolver Module reads both install scopes for a runtime in one call -- the first code path in the repo that does. Phase 3 of epic #2866 (ADR-2866). Blocks Phase 4 (#2873), which resolves #2218: the resolver's shadowedBy field is that defect expressed as a value for the first time. It ships computed-and-unread here. Installed-ness is decided by manifest PRESENCE, never by the new fields, so a manifest written by an older GSD stays fully functional and no user needs to reinstall. Recorded runtime/scope are corroboration: a disagreement with the probed config dir is reported as declaredScopeMatchesProbe: false, never silently corrected. readInstallManifest is widened additively -- version/timestamp/mode/files keep their exact names, types and meanings for all four existing callers. manifestVersion is a new field rather than a reinterpretation of version, which holds the package version and is read by the golden-parity fixtures. Stems are derived from the installed manifest's own file keys, the inverse of Phase 2's filename composition, guarded by a fast-check round-trip property plus a kebab-case charset check so a crafted manifest key cannot put a traversal segment, control character or ANSI escape into a trigger that Phase 4 renders back to the user. Also fixes two defects found while working: - bin/install.js hardcoded manifestVersion: 2 while the reader owned MANIFEST_SCHEMA_VERSION = 2. Now single-sourced, with a parity test. - docs/installer-migrations.md documented an install-state schema of five snake_case fields that have never been written; InstallState has only ever been { schemaVersion, appliedMigrations }. Corrected with a dated note. Verification runs on the remote runner. * fix(#2872): fold review findings from three independent engines Standards axis: - convert the manifest-schema suite from a hybrid setup(t) closure to beforeEach/afterEach (CONTRIBUTING.md:319-354 Pattern 1). The hybrid was neither approved pattern and a new test forgetting the call got no warning. - SCOPE_ORDER was declared twice with no parity test -- this repo's recorded generative-fix-divergence class. Give the ordering one owner: install-scope exports it frozen, the layout module and the resolver both import it, and a test locks it against scopeRank so the constant and the ranks cannot drift. - drop the defaultReadManifest passthrough (Middle Man). Spec axis: - add the VOLATILE_FILES exclusion test and source comment the acceptance table promised and did not deliver. gsd-file-manifest.json stays excluded: the new fields are deterministic, but timestamp -- the original reason -- is unchanged. Security axis: - bound the reported manifest runtime at 64 chars, matching the truncatePostureValue convention already used in this subsystem. It reached declaredRuntime unbounded while the adjacent stems were gated by SAFE_STEM; an inconsistent posture on the same attacker-influenceable document. The charset stays ungated on purpose -- declaredRuntimeMatchesProbe needs to see the real value -- so Phase 4 must sanitize before rendering, recorded in the design's Known limits. Both new parity tests were verified to FAIL when the two sides are made to disagree, then pass again on revert. Verification runs on the remote runner. * chore(#2872): backfill changeset pr number to 3323 * fix(#2872): give git fixture construction its own timeout class PR #3323's full test (windows-latest, 22, shard 2/3) failed with gitOrThrow: 'git init' failed -- outcome=timed_out exitCode=null gitOrThrow: 'git commit --allow-empty' failed -- outcome=timed_out from drift-detection.test.cjs's beforeEach, a file this branch never touched. Every other lane passed the same commit, including windows-latest node 24 on all three shards, and next is green. Root cause is a bound sized for the wrong class. DEFAULT_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS is 15000 and its own comment scopes it to plumbing READS -- rev-parse, branch, log -- against an existing repo. createFixture uses it for six sequential repo-CONSTRUCTION spawns: init, three config writes, add -A, commit. init and commit each write dozens of files, and on Windows every spawn is Defender-scanned. Sibling tests in the failing block took 15.6-22.0s against a 15000ms bound. This repo already diagnosed this exact shape once: timeouts.cjs's HOOK_FANOUT_TIMEOUT_MS records PR #3285 failing in the SAME job with the SAME outcome=timed_out exitCode=null signature at the SAME bound while every other lane passed, and concludes 'a bound sized for the wrong class, not a slow machine'. It was fixed by splitting out a heavier class-norm at 60000. Same remedy here: GIT_FIXTURE_TIMEOUT_MS = 60000, 4x the bound that failed and half INSTALL_TIMEOUT_MS. DEFAULT_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS deliberately stays at 15000 -- a blanket raise would stop a genuinely hung plumbing read from surfacing fast. Verified the value reaches the spawn rather than being an ignored option: spawnSync was monkeypatched before requiring the fixture module, and all six git construction calls were captured carrying timeout: 60000. This branch's two new test files shift shard composition, which is how a pre-existing fragility landed in the heaviest shard on the slowest lane. Fixed here rather than deferred, per the no-defer rule. Verification runs on the remote runner. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-10 15:50:55 -04:00

Six mechanizable defects get real gates: DEFECT.UNBOUNDED-SUBPROCESS (eslint-rules/require-subprocess-timeout.cjs), DEFECT.CANARY-VERSION-LEAK (scripts/lint-canary-version-leak.cjs + version-gate.yml), DEFECT.CHANGESET-PR-FIELD-DRIFT (findPrFieldDrift in changeset/lint.cjs), DEFECT.FRONTMATTER-SCALAR-BROAD-GREP, DEFECT.REMOVED-BUT-NEEDED, and DEFECT.DEFAULT-FLIP-DOCUMENTATION (new lint scripts, wired into lint:ci).

Route every one through runNode/gitOrThrow (tests/helpers/process-seam.cjs, tests/helpers/git-fixture.cjs) instead, matching the pattern already used elsewhere in the suite (e.g. tests/changeset-lint.test.cjs).

Adds the missing docs/INVENTORY.md row for claude-orchestration.cjs (write-set.cjs already had one — only its manifest entry was stale) and regenerates docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json, docs/CONTEXT-INDEX.json, and examples/dynamic-context-management/CONTEXT-INDEX.json. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2896): default-flip-documentation lint's local fallback base was main, not next Found in review: every other base-ref fallback in this repo (see scripts/changeset/lint.cjs's DEFAULT_BASE, #2988) defaults to `next`, the integration branch every PR actually targets — `main` is the release branch. This script's local fallback (used only when GITHUB_BASE_REF is unset, i.e. never in CI, but potentially on a local or direct invocation) diffed against the wrong ref. No test exercised the unset-env-var path, so it shipped unnoticed; every e2e test sets GITHUB_BASE_REF explicitly and is unaffected by this fix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#2896): stale eslint comment, overclaiming CONTEXT.md wording, and an incompletely-regenerated manifest Found by the isolated Standards code-review pass: - eslint.config.mjs's require-subprocess-timeout comment said "'warn' for now... flip to 'error' once migrated" while the rule already shipped as 'error' with all 8 sites migrated in the same commit — described a state that never existed. - The CONTEXT.md pointer block claimed the rule's bounded call sites "never throw", but roadmap-upgrade.cts's pre-mutation clean-tree check correctly still throws on failure (it gates a destructive real-run migration; degrading to "assume clean" would risk clobbering uncommitted work) — softened the claim to describe both shapes accurately instead of overclaiming one. - docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json's claude-orchestration.cjs/write-set.cjs entries from the prior "fix: register claude-orchestration.cjs..." commit didn't actually land — re-running the generator now includes them; lint:generated-sync is green.

Runtime identity was only ever read from GSD_RUNTIME or an explicit runtime in .planning/config.json. Adds a detection rung beneath both explicit sources, in a new pure module. Codex is identified from its own documented session environment (CODEX_SANDBOX / CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED), else an explicitly exported CODEX_HOME whose config.toml exists. The default ~/.codex is never probed: that file exists on every machine that has run Codex, so probing it would misreport other runtimes' sessions. resolveRuntime keeps its exact contract and all 71 dependents, including formatGsdSlash command-style emission; only withProjectRoot consumes the new rung. Nothing is written on any path (#2297). Explicit config still wins (#2517). * fix(#3245): make the parity guard real and single-source the marker Four independent review passes found the generative-fix-divergence guard was vacuous: it asserted agreement at the one input where inferPreferredRuntime and detectHostRuntime do not differ, so it could not fail. It now pins the actual divergence point (CODEX_HOME set, config.toml absent) and records that the asymmetry is deliberate. The config.toml marker is now single-sourced from update-context.cts and imported, rather than carried independently by two surfaces. tests/helpers.cjs now scrubs CODEX_SANDBOX and CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED: GSD reads them, so an ambient Codex session would otherwise make the non-codex control test fail non-deterministically. Also: detection is throw-safe end to end rather than only around the fs probe; the Windows-join test is replaced with one that can actually fail (trailing-separator, catches hand-rolled concatenation); the #2297 no-write proof now wraps resolveReportedRuntime, the function that ships, across all three ladder outcomes. * chore(#3245): backfill changeset pr number --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-10 09:48:26 -04:00
Tom Boucher	d28ab7c8f7	enhance(#3243): sync installed codex .toml model/effort to the passive posture (#3296) ... * feat(#3243): sync installed codex .toml model/effort to the passive posture Implements ADR-2313 D7, and owns the Codex .toml typed IR that Phase 1's review assigned to this phase. The IR exists for a structural reason, not tidiness: this phase has to PARSE these files, and a parser kept bug-compatible with a separate renderer is the generative-fix-divergence shape this epic already dealt with once for the model predicate. So Phase 2's parsing MOVES here rather than being copied — agent-install-check now imports it, and its test file passing unchanged is the proof the extraction altered nothing. The load-bearing property is byte-identical round-trip: render(parse(x)) === x. Without it a sync silently reformats a user's file — line endings, key order, BOM, trailing newline — turning a two-line repair into a whole-file diff in their dotfile repo. The IR keeps original lines and removes targeted ones rather than reconstructing from parsed fields, which is what makes that property hold. It also reconciles a real contradiction between Phase 2 and ADR-2313. An unterminated developer_instructions block: the reader excludes the rest of the file, deliberately failing toward a false positive, because misreading prose as a pin only wastes a user's time. The writer must refuse, because proceeding on a malformed document rewrites it. A false positive is the safe direction for a reader and the dangerous one for a writer. So the parse reports the fact and the two consumers branch on it — one parse, one truth, two policies, instead of two parsers that agree today. The sync leaves a legal real-Codex pin and its coupled effort untouched, reported skipped rather than synced; strips a stale Anthropic or tier model and an orphaned effort; keeps dry-run as the default; refuses any file whose parse fails; and skips symlinks exactly as the Claude path already did. The Claude path itself is byte-identical. PARSE_REASON.NO_HEADER from the ADR's illustrative snippet is deliberately not implemented — a missing header is legal, not an error, so it would be a dead enum member that the enum-lock test then pins. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3243): preserve per-line endings and make the codex write atomic Two findings from an isolated review, both in the write path. BLOCKER: mixed line endings broke the byte-identical round-trip. `eol` was a single whole-file flag and split(/\r?\n/) discarded each line's own terminator, so render re-joined with ONE style and normalized every line — even with zero strips performed. A file with one CRLF line and the rest LF came back fully converted. That falsified the A14 guarantee, violated the design's "must not silently rewrite every line", and made the CONTEXT.md glossary claim wrong. It was untested because A12 and B15 only cover PURE CRLF; no mixed-ending fixture existed anywhere. Fixed by keeping each line's terminator alongside its content, so render is a plain concatenation and a strip removes only the target line and its own terminator. `eol` survives as informational metadata that render never reads. Seven fixtures added for the paths nothing exercised: mixed endings unmodified and with a strip, a lone \r, a file ending on the block's closing ''' with no newline, multiple trailing newlines, a BOM-only file, and an empty file. MINOR, but it contradicted this phase's own contract: the write was in-place open-truncate, so a failure between truncate and completion leaves a truncated .toml — exactly what ADR-2313 says must never happen. The Codex path now writes a sibling temp file and renames over the target, which is atomic on one filesystem, with cleanup on failure. It uses the repo's existing retryRenameSync rather than a hand-rolled rename, and deliberately NOT platformWriteSync, whose normalizeContent would mangle the very CRLF and trailing-newline bytes the round-trip property exists to preserve. The Claude path keeps its in-place write untouched. It has the same shape, but changing it is not this phase's business and its tests must stay byte-identical. B20 previously mocked writeFileSync to throw BEFORE touching anything, so it proved nothing about a mid-write failure — its passing comment was true only because of how the mock was built. It now performs a real truncated write wherever writeFileSync is called, catching both the naive direct-to-target path and the new temp path, and asserts the target is byte-identical afterwards with no stray temp file left. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3243): preserve the trailing-newline state when stripping a last line Caught by B17, one of this phase's own tests — the suite working, not a test problem. Content is reconstructed as the concatenation of lines[k] + terminators[k], so a file with no trailing newline has '' as its last terminator. removeLine spliced out both arrays at the same index, which is right for a middle line but wrong for the last one: it dropped the empty terminator and left the PREVIOUS line's newline in place. A file ending `...\nmodel = "sonnet"` with no trailing newline came back as `...\n`, gaining a newline the user never wrote. The new last line now inherits the removed line's terminator, so a removal leaves the file exactly as if that line had never been written. Removing the only line yields an empty file rather than a stray terminator. Both stripModel and stripReasoningEffort funnel through the one removeLine, confirmed rather than assumed, so a single fix covers both — including the row-B7 shape where a stale model and its orphaned effort are removed in sequence and the second removal targets the last line. Two of the four new cases are honestly not red-first and say so in their comments: removing a last line that HAS a trailing newline only exposes the bug under mixed EOL, since uniform files coincidentally have equal terminators on both sides; and removing the only line already degenerated correctly through Array.slice. They are kept as guards for the new branch rather than dressed up as catches. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#3243): document the codex repair path and close the loop How-to: the Codex-400 entry added in Phase 2 told users to re-run the installer, because that was the only repair available then. It now leads with `effort sync` and keeps the reinstall as the alternative, with the reason to prefer one — a reinstall regenerates the agent files wholesale, so anyone who hand-edited theirs loses those edits. Detect, preview, apply is now one continuous path in one place. Reference: docs/COMMANDS.md had no `effort sync` entry at all — the same gap `validate agents` had in Phase 2, found the same way. The entry documents BOTH runtimes, because the command genuinely forks on runtime and describing only the new half would misdescribe it. The write flag is `--apply`. The design doc and test matrix both said `--no-dry-run` throughout, which does not exist — verified against the actual arg parser in gsd-tools.cjs before writing. Documenting a flag that does not exist is worse than documenting nothing, because it fails at the moment someone needs it. Both surfaces state that only the targeted lines are removed and every other byte is preserved. That is a user-visible guarantee rather than an implementation note: it is the difference between a two-line diff and a reformatted file in someone's dotfile repo, it is what the IR's round-trip property exists to deliver, and writing it down makes it a contract a future change has to break knowingly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3243): inherit the trailing-newline state, not the line ending style My previous rule was subtly wrong and this phase's own test caught it. "The new last line inherits the removed line's terminator" copies the removed line's STYLE as well as its presence. A26 uses mixed endings on purpose — line one terminated \r\n, the model line terminated \n — so inheriting silently rewrote line one's ending to \n. That is precisely the defect class the mixed-EOL blocker fix existed to eliminate, reintroduced one layer down by the fix for it. The correct rule inherits the EMPTINESS only. If the removed line had no terminator, the new last line loses its own, preserving "this file has no trailing newline". Otherwise the new last line keeps its own terminator: it is already a newline, and already the right style for that line. A26's assertion moved too, and that deserves saying plainly rather than burying: it previously encoded my wrong rule. Changing a test to match the implementation is usually the mistake, so it was checked from first principles instead — a file whose first line ends \r\n and whose last line ends \n, with that last line removed entirely, must be the first line with its own \r\n intact. The new expectation is what the user's file should actually look like; the old one was wrong. A29 adds the interaction nothing covered: the compounding case (strip a stale model, then its orphaned effort, the second removal landing on the last line) with non-uniform endings either side. The two fixes meet there and nothing exercised the meeting point. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3243): drop the phantom trailing line from the IR representation Root cause, not another patch on the removal rule. Three consecutive fixes there each surfaced the next issue, which was the signal that the data model was wrong. splitPreservingTerminators left a phantom empty final entry for any file ending in a newline: "a\nb\n" became lines ['a','b','']. So for the common case the real last content line was NOT the last array element, removeLine's isLastLine check never matched it, and every rule I gave was reasoning about the wrong element. What hid it: render was already a plain concatenation, so a phantom empty line with an empty terminator contributes nothing to the output. A14's byte-identical round-trip could never have caught it — the defect is byte-neutral until a removal shifts the index arithmetic under it. That is worth recording, because "the round-trip test is green" was exactly the reassurance that kept the search pointed elsewhere. The representation is now 1:1 — terminators[i] follows lines[i] and may be '' — with no phantom, verified across empty, no-trailing-newline, trailing-newline, blank-line and mixed-CRLF inputs. render stays a plain concat and needs no special cases. With the phantom gone the removal rule is correct as stated and finally applies to the genuinely last element. Consumers checked rather than assumed: the block-range detector and header scanner are agnostic to array shape, and Phase 2's reader uses its own independent split, so tests/agent-install-check.test.cjs is untouched and still passes unchanged. One test expectation was wrong and is corrected rather than quietly adjusted: A18 asserted a 7-element terminators array whose trailing '' was the phantom itself. It now asserts the six real terminators, which is what the invariant lines.length === terminators.length requires.

Tom Boucher	c2f24265f2	feat(#2870): resolve install scope as a value (#3278) ... * test(#2870): failing-first suite for the Install Scope Module 19 tests over the 50-test-matrix rows 1-19. RED by construction: the module under test does not exist yet, so the suite fails at require with MODULE_NOT_FOUND until src/install-scope.cts lands. Every row asserts a returned value with injected env/home/existsSync -- no filesystem, per the issue's acceptance criterion that tests assert the resolved value directly. Row 7 asserts the RELATION rank(global) > rank(local) rather than a literal, so Phase 2 (#2871) can re-base the numbers without a fixture edit. Row 4 iterates the real runtime registry rather than a hardcoded list, excluding vscode, which declares configHome.kind none and is never CLI-installed. * feat(#2870): add the Install Scope Module Scope becomes one resolved value instead of a bare string re-derived at every layer. resolveScope({id, runtime, ...}) returns {id, configHome, settingsFile, consentRequired, hostPrecedenceRank}. It COMPOSES resolveConfigHomeFromDescriptor rather than extending it. That function has 60 dependents across 13 files and 2 process flows -- a CRITICAL blast radius -- so adding a scope parameter to it, which the issue's framing invites, would ripple through all of them. Composing costs nothing and leaves every existing caller byte-identical. The module owns the InstallScope type name, which previously lived privately in runtime-artifact-install-plan.cts; that module now imports it. A fifth spelling of the same concept would have defeated the phase. settingsFile is null for the 18 runtimes that declare no settingsFileByScope -- absence is a value, not an error, and inventing a Claude-shaped default would leak that host's shape onto every other one. hostPrecedenceRank ships unread: Phase 2 (#2871) is its first consumer. It is carried as data only, per this issue's out-of-scope note that precedence semantics belong to that phase. Vocabulary: the install axis standardizes on local. ConsentRecord.scope keeps project deliberately -- that literal is serialized into consent records in the user's home, and renaming it would silently deactivate every project-scoped capability on the machine. CONTEXT.md records the boundary mapping instead. Every environmental input is injectable (env, home, existsSync, cwd), so the resolved value is assertable with no filesystem at all. Registration ripple: .gitignore, eslint.config.mjs, CONTEXT.md glossary, docs/INVENTORY.md, and the inventory manifest (regenerated after build:lib, never before). Verified via the remote runner. * refactor(#2870): route scope re-derivations through the module bin/install.js resolves scope once per function instead of inline at each of its 12 sites, and the settingsFileByScope consumer reads it through resolveScope(). Seven downstream boolean re-derivations now call the module's isGlobalScope() instead of comparing the literal independently: runtime-artifact-install-plan, both runtime-artifact-layout kind builders, dispatchKindEntry, surface, and two install-engine sites. The fifth through seventh were not named in the issue -- they are the same re-derivation class, and leaving them would have made the acceptance criterion false. _computePathPrefix keeps its isGlobal boolean API, so the projection is centralized rather than eliminated. resolveScope and isGlobalScope share one validator, so the two surfaces cannot drift. TWO SITES DELIBERATELY NOT ROUTED: runtime-artifact-conversion's rewriteStagedSkillBodies and rewriteStagedCommandBodies. ADR-1508 fixes the direction as installer/layout -> conversion, never upward, and install-scope composes runtime-homes, so importing it into the conversion module would invert that direction. Left as-is on purpose. Behavior-preserving throughout. Each step was proven by capturing full layout and plan output -- including every kind's home field and the hashed contents of emitted files -- before and after, across both scopes for claude, codex, opencode, hermes, kimi and kilo. Byte-identical. surface.cts keeps a scope ?? 'global' default before the call because Layout.scope is optional there; isGlobalScope throws where the old inline compare returned false, and that difference would have been a placement regression. Verified via the remote runner. * fix(#2870): cover the no-config-home throw and document the strictness Two findings from the isolated adversarial review. The vscode case was implemented but untested. resolveScope throws for a runtime whose descriptor declares configHome.kind 'none', which is the design's own behavior-table row 13, but the registry sweep excluded vscode rather than asserting the throw -- so the behavior shipped with no test. The exclusion is now legitimate because the case has its own test naming the runtime in the assertion. isGlobalScope throws where the inline compare it replaced returned false. No reachable caller can deliver an out-of-union value today, but the types are not enforced at runtime, so a future caller passing an optional Layout.scope would crash rather than silently misroute. That is the better failure -- misrouting writes artifacts to the wrong place -- but it was undocumented, so the reason is now on the function. Adds the changeset the acceptance criteria require. * refactor(#2870): route the last two sites; correct the ADR-1508 claim The previous commit declined to route runtime-artifact-conversion's rewriteStagedSkillBodies and rewriteStagedCommandBodies, claiming ADR-1508's dependency direction forbade the import. That reasoning was wrong, and this commit corrects it. Two independent reviewers checked the actual import graph: runtime-artifact-conversion already imports capability-registry, command-roster, runtime-name-policy and shell-command-projection -- it depends on leaf-tier siblings today. install-scope imports only runtime-homes plus node builtins, and runtime-homes imports only node builtins, so there is no cycle at any depth. ADR-1508 governs the installer/layout to conversion boundary, not a leaf-to-leaf sibling import of the same shape conversion already makes. With those two routed, every isGlobal re-derivation in the tree now goes through one owner and acceptance criterion 1 is fully met rather than partially. Nine sites, not the four the issue enumerated. Also from the review: Tests were falling through to the real process.cwd() at five local-scope call sites, which contradicts the acceptance criterion that the resolved value be assertable with no filesystem. Every one now injects a cwd. One of the five was a site the review had not spotted. bin/install.js carried two near-identical copies of the guarded resolveScope block, one in install() and one in uninstall() -- duplicated scope logic in the phase whose purpose is removing it. Extracted to one helper, and the new sites use the file's existing ternary idiom rather than the if/else that replaced it. Equivalence re-proven across both scopes for claude, codex, opencode, kilo and hermes, now including the staged skill and command body rewrites hashed per file, since those decide the literal spec-root path baked into every emitted artifact. Byte-identical. Verified via the remote runner. * fix(#2870): assert configHome portably instead of with a native separator The windows-latest node24 shard failed on two install-scope assertions. The module was right and the tests were wrong: they built their expected value with path.join, which emits \fake\home\.claude on Windows, while resolveScope normalizes separators unconditionally to /fake/home/.claude. That unconditional normalization is deliberate -- backslash paths arrive on Linux too, so normalizing via path.sep is the documented defect this repo guards against. Weakening it to make the assertion pass would have inverted the fix. Every path.join-built expectation in the suite now goes through toPosixPath from tests/helpers.cjs, which is the pattern the no-path-literal-in-assert rule's own valid-case list sanctions. It splits on the running platform's path.sep and rejoins with forward slashes, so it reverses whatever path.join produced on that same platform and the expectation is invariant everywhere. Two more call sites had the same latent problem and passed on Linux and macOS by luck; they are fixed too. This is the class of defect the remote runner structurally cannot catch -- its matrix is Linux-only, so a green pass there is not evidence of portability, and CI's Windows lane is the only place it surfaces.

Two fast-check properties assert that stripping never manufactures a decision point and that comments and string literals are score-neutral. Also registers the refactor-trigger capability manifest (inert until refactor.trigger_enabled) and regenerates the capability registry and matrix. Verified RED on the remote runner before any implementation exists. * feat(#1953): complexity-triggered refactor extension point Adds the opt-in refactor-trigger capability. After a phase executes, an execute:post step measures per-function complexity for the files the phase touched and writes a scoped refactor proposal when a function crosses the configured threshold or drifts past its recorded anchor. Design notes worth carrying: - The signal is computed in-core (decision-point counting over comment- and literal-stripped source, Node builtins only) rather than via Memtrace or a shelled-out analyzer. The hook fires as a deterministic CLI, not an agent with MCP tools, and core takes no external dependencies — this is the only option a behavioral test can bind to. The metric sits behind a seam. - The baseline is a stable anchor, not a rolling value: set on first observation, moved only on disposition. A rolling baseline makes the delta the single-phase change, so a function creeping +2 per phase never trips a delta of 5 and the jump check adds nothing over the absolute threshold. - Strict mode records an open deviation window in the broken-windows ledger rather than declaring its own ship:pre gate. ship.md has no generic ship:pre gate dispatch — only two hardcoded branches — so a third gate of any kind would be declared and never evaluated. - The gate clears on the proposal being dispositioned, never on the score improving. A blocking complexity number is one an executor can satisfy by splitting a coherent function in two. execute-phase.md gains a generic execute:post step-dispatch contract; it previously matched only ref.skill == "code-review", so any other step registered there was declared and never run. The code-review branch is unchanged. Full rationale in ADR-1953. Closes #1953 * fix(#1953): close git option injection and symlink escape in the refactor hook Three findings from the isolated security review, all fixed inline. HIGH — changedFilesSince interpolated the --since value into a revision token placed before the -- separator. A -- only stops PATHSPEC parsing of arguments after it; git still option-parses what comes before. So --since '--output=/tmp/x' became --output=/tmp/x..HEAD, which git accepts as --output=<file> and uses to redirect diff output — an arbitrary write. Fixed with --end-of-options before the revision range plus a conservative ref validator. The validator deliberately permits ~ ^ @ { } because those are legitimate git REVISION syntax (HEAD~1, main@{yesterday}) as distinct from ref-NAME syntax; --end-of-options is the actual barrier. The doc comment asserting the trailing -- was sufficient was wrong and is corrected. MEDIUM — resolveConfinedPath confined by string prefix only, so a symlink committed inside the repo passed the check (its own path is under cwd) and readFileSync then followed it outside the root. Now lstat-checks for a regular file and skips anything else with REFACTOR_FILE_UNREADABLE, so one bad path skips one file and the run continues. LOW — the new execute:post dispatch contract showed the gsd_run example before the rule requiring ref.command be validated first. That prose is executed by an agent, so textual order is execution order. Reordered. Refs #1953 * fix(#1953): make the analyzer able to see TypeScript at all Found by running the shipped analyzer over its own source: it reported functions=1 for a 940-line module with 24 function forms. A return-type annotation or a generic parameter list made a function invisible — `function f(a): number {}` and `function f<T>(a: T): T {}` both detected as zero. Since gsd-core is written in .cts and the capability declares .ts/.cts/.mts analyzable, the feature silently found nothing in this repo's own primary language while reporting success. A safety net that reports "all clear" because it cannot see is worse than no safety net. All 98 tests passed over this, because every fixture was plain JS — the exact failure the test matrix's own "assert against the shape production uses" warning describes. Adds a TypeScript-shapes suite covering return types (including unions, generics, object literals and type predicates), generic parameter lists (constrained and defaulted), export/async/generator combinations, annotated arrows, class-method modifiers, and optional/ default/rest params — plus the two traps: an overload signature has no body and must not count, and `a < b && c > d` is a comparison, not a generic. Detection now reports 24/37/21 functions for the three source files, which matches a hand count exactly. Also from review: - The strict-mode ledger dedup identified entries by parsing a prose description string. That is banned by CONTRIBUTING's raw-text-matching rule and was a real bug: the "exactly one window per untriaged proposal" guarantee rested on prose matching, so rewording a description or editing WINDOWS.md by hand silently produced duplicates. Now matches structurally on kind + phase + file + line. - A property test asserted on the stripper's output text. Reframed to assert the same invariant through analyzeSource's score. - nextBaseline's `candidates` parameter has been dead since the anchor change; removed from the signature and all call sites. - Extracted the duplicated require-or-degrade and capability-check boilerplate. - ADR-1953's Implementation bullet still named a `refactor.ship-gate` in check-command-router.cts — a leftover from the design cut D6 rejects. That file is untouched and no such gate exists. Removed. Refs #1953 * fix(#1953): keep execute-phase.md under its byte ceiling; un-vacuum the large-file test Five of the seven remote-runner failures were one cause: the execute:post dispatch contract, written out inline, grew execute-phase.md 1876 bytes (93,400 -> 95,276) against a frozen PRE_PHASE6 ceiling of 93,600. A drift-ack does not clear that — tests/phase6-capstone-conformance.test.cjs and tests/fix-2285-claude-orchestration-wiring.test.cjs assert the file is literally under the cap. The contract now lives in gsd-core/references/loop-hook-dispatch.md, which already claimed to be the point-agnostic dispatch reference and already documented ref.skill and ref.agent. It gains the ref.command shape, its in-context validation rule, the advisory-by-construction statement, and a note that a point whose workflow hand-rolls one kind is not implementing this contract. execute-phase.md now defers to it in one line: 145 bytes of growth, 55 B of headroom under the cap. Better placement than the first cut — the reference was overstating its coverage, and this makes the claim true rather than duplicating prose next to it. Acknowledged by appending to tests/emitted-drift-acks/2930-*.json rather than a new 1953-*.json: two ack sources may never name the same path, and that fragment is already the accumulating ack for this file. Sixth and seventh failures: analyzesLargeFileWithinBounds tripped its own vacuity guard — the fixture generated ~480 KB against a `> 500000` assert, so the guard fired and the three assertions after it never ran. The test has been vacuous since it was written. The matrix row specifies ~1 MB, so N goes 8000 -> 20000 (1.17 MB, 17% margin) and the guard to > 1_000_000. Verified by reproducing the exact body against the compiled module: 1168888 bytes, 118 ms, all four assertions hold. Refs #1953 * fix(#1953): fold the execute:post step deferral into the existing resolve line The remaining two failures were one test: execute-phase.md carries a SECOND, tighter assertion than the 93,600 ceiling — `<=93400`, which is exactly its current size. The file cannot grow by a single byte. My previous fix got it under 93,600 but not under 93,400, so it still failed. ("H." in the report is just the parent describe of that same test, not a separate defect.) Rather than add a paragraph, the deferral now REPLACES the existing hook resolution line. It read: Resolve active step hooks from `EXECUTE_POST_HOOKS_JSON` where `kind == "step"` and `ref.skill == "code-review"`. which is the bug itself written down — only code-review was ever dispatched. It now reads: Dispatch each `kind == "step"` hook per @gsd-core/references/loop-hook-dispatch.md. For `code-review`: The following prose already begins "If no active code-review step hook exists", so it reads correctly and the code-review handling is untouched. Net effect on the file is -11 bytes: 93,400 -> 93,389, under the margin assertion rather than merely under the ceiling. That also removes the need for a drift-ack: the file shrank, so there is no growth to acknowledge, and the append to the shared 2930-*.json fragment is reverted. Leaving it would have shipped a claim of "145 bytes of growth" that is no longer true, on a file six other issues share. The test's own comment states the principle this ended up honoring: "the host loop must stay small — optional-feature detail belongs in the capability fragment, not the host workflow." Putting the dispatch contract in the reference rather than inline is that rule, applied. Refs #1953 * fix(#1953): keep the code-review hook literal the workflow test requires tests/code-review.test.cjs extracts the <step name="code_review_gate"> block and asserts it contains `ref.skill == "code-review"` verbatim. The previous commit replaced the line carrying that literal, so the token vanished and the test went red — a fair assertion: code-review IS the bespoke branch there and the workflow should still name it. Restored inside the same one-line deferral, which now reads: Dispatch `kind == "step"` hooks per @gsd-core/references/loop-hook-dispatch.md. `ref.skill == "code-review"`: 93,396 bytes — still under the `<=93400` margin assertion and 4 bytes below the base, so the file continues to shrink rather than grow. Because three consecutive runs were each reddened by a different assertion on this one file, this change was verified by sweeping ALL of them at once rather than one run at a time: every test under tests/ that reads execute-phase.md or references/loop-hook-dispatch.md was located by resolving its path constants, and each content/size assertion was evaluated directly against the working tree — 22 assertions, plus two real executions (gen-section-manifest --check, and emitted-attribution's full real-tree differential). All pass. That sweep also confirms the earlier judgement call: the net change to execute-phase.md is a SHRINK, and the size ratchet only gates growth, so reverting the append to the shared 2930-*.json ack fragment was correct — an ack would have been both unnecessary and factually wrong. Refs #1953 * chore(#1953): backfill changeset pr number to 3261 * docs(#1953): add the missing how-to for acting on a refactor proposal Reference and explanation shipped (COMMANDS.md, CONFIGURATION.md, FEATURES.md 159, ADR-1953) but the Diataxis how-to quadrant did not, and that is the one a user reaches for. CONTRIBUTING's required-docs table is 'new command -> COMMANDS.md + FEATURES.md', so CI was green on a gap. Enabling this feature is genuinely multi-step and no single page walked it: turn it on, tune the threshold, understand advisory vs strict, discover that strict needs a SECOND toggle on a DIFFERENT capability, and know what to do when a proposal appears. The two-toggle subtlety in particular was a footnote in a config table; here it is a section with both commands. Follows the shape of its closest siblings, resolve-edge-coverage-findings and resolve-prohibition-findings — both 'the loop surfaced a finding, here is what to do with it'. Includes a reason-code table for the silent cases, since the analyzer is deliberately quiet in six situations and a user who expected a proposal needs to tell 'nothing to report' from 'could not look'. Indexed from docs/README.md beside the other loop how-tos. Docs-only: exempt from the push gate, no re-verification, pass marker on 2af188b4 untouched. Refs #1953 * feat(#1953): warn when strict mode is on but nothing will actually block Closes acceptance criterion 5, which I had wrongly marked satisfied. refactor.trigger_strict records an untriaged proposal as an open deviation window, but a ship only STOPS if workflow.windows_enforce is also on — a toggle owned by the broken-windows capability that this feature neither sets nor requires. So a user could enable strict, believe ship was gated, and find out otherwise at ship time. The split itself stays: requires:["broken-windows"] would force-install the ledger on advisory users who never enable strict, and a ship:pre gate of our own would never fire because ship.md has no generic ship:pre gate dispatch. What was missing was discoverability, so that is what this fixes. `refactor evaluate` now emits a typed REFACTOR_STRICT_NOT_ENFORCING warning, naming the exact remediation command, whenever strict is on and either workflow.windows_enforce is off or broken-windows is unavailable. It fires only on a run that produced a candidate — with nothing to block on there is nothing to warn about, and warning every run would be noise. Reads workflow.windows_enforce through the same resolveConfigKey walk the router already uses for its own keys rather than a second config reader. Four tests cover the matrix: strict+enforce-off warns, strict+enforce-on does not, strict+ledger-absent warns, strict-off never warns. Also corrects a user-facing message in this same file that told the user to run `gsd-tools config-set` — the wrong form. docs/CONFIGURATION.md and the broken-windows capability both use `gsd config-set`, and gsd-tools is invoked as `node gsd-tools.cjs`, so the bare form may not resolve. The two adjacent messages in this file now agree. Refs #1953 --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-09 19:52:47 -04:00
Tom Boucher	343835facc	refactor(#3183): route live-plan counting through scanPhasePlans (#3199) ... * refactor(#3183): route live-plan counting through scanPhasePlans scanPhasePlans becomes the sole owner of the live-plan derivation. Twenty-one independent re-derivations across seven modules now route through it, and scripts/lint-plan-count-drift.cjs reports zero, scanning the whole repo rather than an allowlist (ADR-3180 Decision 4a). The epic scoped this at three copies. A whole-repo guard found twenty-six sites across nine files, so Phase 1 absorbs every live-plan re-derivation and Phase 3 narrows to window plus sentinel enumeration. Two sites are exempt with a documented reason rather than a bare allowlist: audit.cts scans one quick task's own directory for a single completion record, and gsd2-import.cts reads a foreign GSD-2 tasks/ layout during a one-time import. Neither is a phase directory. scanPhasePlans gains allPlanFiles (pre-supersession) alongside planFiles so one owner answers both questions: verify.cts's numbering-gap check wants every plan on disk, its pairing check wants the live set. Both fields are additive. Highest-severity fix: cmdPhasePlanIndex, which feeds execute-phase wave scheduling, was scheduling status:superseded plans into waves and reporting zero plans for the post-#3139 nested layout. filterPlanFiles and filterSummaryFiles are deleted; getPhaseFileStats orphaned them and only their own tests still called them. New leaf module src/planning-scope.cts carries the frozen SCOPE discriminator, with its six-gate ripple closed: gitignore, inventory manifest, INVENTORY.md and the CONTEXT.md glossary.

The whole-repo drift guard found 26 re-derivations across 9 files against the epic's estimate of 3, and cmdProgressRender re-derives both enumeration and plan counting on adjacent lines, so DW4 was unsatisfiable within Phase 1's original file scope. Records the amended scope, scanPhasePlans's new allPlanFiles field, findOrphanSummaries, the two documented exemptions, the re-derived Tier-2 table, and the describeNonCanonicalPlans trap for later phases. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_012qYy4ZWif3sscQyMsup6Ma * fix(#3183): complete the canonical pairing rule and gate the naming diagnostic The remote runner went red with 13 deterministic failures on both lanes, and they were right: replacing verify.cts's canonicalPlanStem pairing with summaryCandidates dropped a case the bespoke rule covered. A plan carrying a descriptive slug after its id (68-01-scaffolding-PLAN.md) pairs with its canonical-stem summary (68-01-SUMMARY.md), and summaryCandidates generated no such candidate, so the plan read unsummarized. The fix is to complete the one rule rather than restore a second: summaryCandidates gains a canonical-id candidate, narrowed to fire only when an id pair was actually extracted. countMatchedSummaries, findUnsummarizedPlans and findOrphanSummaries all inherit it. The two-plans-one-summary collision behaviour of the original rule is preserved deliberately and documented in place. Second defect, independently root-caused while verifying: routing the #2893 naming diagnostic through scanPhasePlans exposed it to the loose /PLAN/i fallback, which is correct for counting and wrong for a naming check — a non-canonically-named file was accepted as a valid plan and the diagnostic went silent. cmdPhasesList, cmdFindPhase and cmdPhasePlanIndex now intersect with a strict isCanonicalPlanFile predicate before reporting names. Same class as the describeNonCanonicalPlans trap already recorded in ADR-3180: a question about file naming wants the physical, strictly-matched set; only a question about outstanding work wants the live set.

The new planning-scope module closed five of the six .cts ripple gates - gitignore, inventory manifest, INVENTORY.md and the CONTEXT.md glossary - but not eslint, because that one is enforced by a test rather than by lint:ci, so the local pipeline stayed green while it was missing. Generated from src/planning-scope.cts, so the .cjs is ignored and the .cts is linted, matching every other migrated module. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_012qYy4ZWif3sscQyMsup6Ma * fix(#3183): replace the plan-count drift detector with a literal tokenizer CodeQL reported 4 high-severity js/redos alerts on REGEX_LITERAL_MD_RE, the backtracking regex that finds "a regex literal mentioning PLAN/SUMMARY and an escaped \.md". Five review rounds found it had two defects, not one: - EXPONENTIAL, then CUBIC. Its "any char" atom `(?:\\.|[^/\r\n])` let a `\.` pair be consumed either as one escape or as two class characters, which is exponential backtracking: 27,464ms on `"/\.mdplan" + "\.".repeat(28) + "X"`. Excluding `\` from the class killed that but left a cubic path — 23ms at N=200, 172ms at N=400, 1362ms at N=800 on `"/" + "PLAN\.md".repeat(N)` with no closing `/`. This guard is the last stage of `npm run lint:ci`, which CI runs on fork pull requests, so a crafted src/*.cts could stall the job. - A DETECTION HOLE. A character class holding a bare, unescaped `/` — e.g. `/SUMMARY[^/]*\.md$/`, an ordinary path-excluding filter — terminated the literal at that `/`, so the scan never reached `\.md` and the guard missed it entirely. (Classes holding an ESCAPED `\/` were already matched; the tests cover those separately as parity, not as regressions.) Both defects have one root cause: regex-literal grammar — `\x` escapes, and `/` inside `[...]` not terminating — is not expressible in a backtracking regex. So the detector is now a tokenizer, not a regex. readRegexLiteralAt reads the literal at a given `/` in a single left-to-right pass with no backtracking, treating escapes as two-character units and suppressing the `/` terminator inside a character class. findRegexLiteralMdMatch restarts it at every `/` on the line, preserving the old "find anywhere" behaviour; MAX_REGEX_LITERAL_LEN (400) bounds each read — including the trailing-flag scan — which keeps the whole-line cost linear. Results: cubic shape flat at 0.06-0.39ms out to N=3200 (25KB), exponential shape 0.01ms at 28 reps and 0.00ms at 64, and the bare-`/` class shapes are now caught. Differential against the old regex over 28,474 lines (those matching FILENAME_TEST_RE but not PLAN_SUMMARY_LITERAL_RE, across src/tests/scripts/ gsd-core/bin/eslint-rules, excluding 265 lines with >6 backslashes on which the old regex hangs): 6 differences, all the tokenizer returning the fuller or newly-correct literal, 0 old-only misses. The `\.md` token stays case-insensitive, matching the `/i` the old regex carried. Also closes three holes in the same new file: - walk() tested entry.isFile(), false for a symlink, so a symlinked src/*.cts was silently unscanned — an evasion of a guard whose stated principle (ADR-3180 Decision 4a) is whole-repo discovery with no allowlist. It now resolves symlinks, but confined: file links must resolve inside the repo root, directory links inside the scanned dir itself. Every sibling drift guard in scripts/ uses the Dirent classification and never follows links, so following them unconfined would have made this the only linter able to read outside the tree — on fork PRs an arbitrary out-of-repo read whose matched fragments reach a public CI log. The narrower directory rule additionally stops `src/up -> ..` from sweeping the whole repo, and the skip list is now checked against resolved paths so `src/g -> ../.git` cannot reach .git/** or node_modules/**. Real paths are de-duplicated and files reported canonically, so a symlink alias cannot shift which FUNCTION_SCOPED_EXEMPTIONS key applies. - Both the reported fragment and the reported FILE PATH are attacker- controlled source text written straight to a CI log, and git permits control bytes in a filename. Both are now escaped — C0/C1/DEL plus the bidi and zero-width controls — so a crafted literal or filename cannot recolour the log, overwrite a line with CR, or fabricate a line that looks like this guard's own success output. Regression coverage in tests/plan-count-single-owner.test.cjs: a child-process probe over both pathological shapes (catastrophic backtracking is synchronous and would freeze the suite rather than fail one test), the bare-`/` class shapes verified to fail against the parent-commit blob, root-confinement tests covering the outside-file, outside-directory, cycle, broken-link and duplicate cases, direct isInsideRoot coverage including the sibling-prefix case that a bare startsWith would let through, sanitizeForReport coverage, and limit-1/limit/limit+1 coverage of MAX_REGEX_LITERAL_LEN derived from the exported constant. The earlier structural assertion was dropped — it checked for the substring `[^/`, which respelling the class as `[^\r\n/]` defeats while staying exponential.

Tom Boucher	8f75e27554	fix(#3045): fail closed when an executor dispatch drops its resolved isolation (#3069) ... * feat(#3045): deny an executor dispatch that drops its isolation flag Every isolation gate already resolved correctly. The resolved value then reached the executor through a prose instruction telling the model to substitute it into a call the model composes itself, and nothing verified the substitution. When it was dropped, the executor edited and committed in the user's primary checkout with no consent and no warning. A prose backstop would be the same class of artifact as the defect, so this is a shipped PreToolUse hook on the Agent tool. It fires at the instant of the call rather than being read once at the top of a workflow, which is the only placement the model cannot skip. The guard is inert unless it can positively establish that this is a GSD project, that the project resolves to harness isolation, and that the dispatch targets an executor. A non-GSD repo has no invariant to enforce. Where it cannot read the configuration at all, it denies rather than assuming, with its own reason -- a guard that cannot verify must not answer safe. A malformed payload allows rather than throwing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(#3045): extend the isolation guard to Cursor Cursor is the second of only two runtimes that resolve harness isolation, so shipping the guard for Claude alone left half the exposed surface unguarded while the changeset implied it was covered. The two runtimes fail differently. On Claude the harness flag is a per-dispatch kwarg the model must copy into a call it composes, and the defect is that it can be dropped. On Cursor the flag is --worktree, which applies to the whole session, and the subagent-start payload carries no isolation field at all. There is no flag to check, so the guard verifies the effective state instead: whether the workspace is genuinely running outside the user's primary checkout. That is a stronger check than the Claude one because it tests reality rather than intent, and it is commented so nobody later rewrites it into a flag check. Isolation is established two ways, either sufficient: the workspace resolves to a linked git worktree, or it sits under the worktree root Cursor manages. The second matters because a directory Cursor placed there is a legitimate isolated session even before it becomes a distinct git worktree, where linkage alone would report no repository. Detecting linkage required a new primitive rather than the existing context resolver. That resolver short-circuits on finding a local .planning directory before it ever compares the git directory to the common one -- and an isolation worktree normally has its own checked-out .planning. Reusing it would have read a correctly isolated session as unisolated and denied it, which is the failure direction that gets a guard switched off. The comparison is now its own shortcut-free function that the resolver delegates to after its own shortcut, so existing behavior is unchanged, and the case that would have broken is pinned. The subagent type is checked before any configuration is read, so an unreadable config cannot deny a dispatch this guard would never have enforced against. The input-schema comment on the Cursor hook documented only the fields common to every event and omitted the ones specific to this one. That omission cost a halt during this work; it now documents both. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3045): enforce the resolved dispatch decision, not the host capability The guard keyed on the registry's dispatch.isolation, which says only that a runtime is CAPABLE of harness worktrees. The decision that actually governs a dispatch is the one the workflow resolves after gating, and that legitimately comes out as sequential in three documented cases: a project setting use_worktrees false, a per-plan submodule intersection, and the base-check auto-degrade. The workflow tells the model to omit the flag in exactly those cases, and the guard was denying every one of them. The third case matters most. The preceding fix made the base-check degrade on git timeouts and a missing git binary, where it had previously answered "safe". That correction is right, and it means a transient hang now degrades to sequential far more often than before -- so the two changes composed into a trap where the workflow behaved exactly as designed and the guard blocked it. The workflow already resolves isolation in shell, deterministically, which is what makes it a trustworthy source in a way the model-authored call is not. It now records that resolved value through a dedicated verb, and both guards read it first. A fresh record is authoritative, so sequential dispatches pass untouched. Absent or stale, the guards fall back to the capability check combined with the project's use_worktrees setting, which still covers the case that never reaches the workflow. Also widened the matcher to accept Task alongside Agent, since a host that names the tool Task would otherwise leave the guard silently inert while implying coverage; stopped assuming Claude when no runtime is declared, which is the shipped default and would have demanded a Claude-only argument elsewhere; and made a non-git project inert rather than denied, since advising a worktree session is not actionable without a repository. The original diagnosis never modeled sequential mode as legitimate. That omission is what let this through, and it is now recorded there. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3045): record at resolution and bind the record to its dispatch Two independent reviews converged on the same failure: the guard was fail-open in a default install, so it did not catch the defect it exists to catch. A shipped project carries no runtime key, which made "runtime not confidently known" the common case rather than a corner one. A record asserting that isolation was required but carrying no flag then fell through to a capability lookup that answered "none", and the dispatch was allowed. The flag itself only arrived from a second shell block -- the same block a model dropping the argument would also skip. A test had pinned that behavior as intended. The record is now written by the resolver, as an unavoidable consequence of asking for the value, rather than by a step the model is told in prose to go and run. A guard against a prose-carried value cannot itself depend on prose. Mode, flag and identifiers are written together and atomically, so the flagless window is gone, and a record asserting isolation with no resolvable flag now denies instead of degrading. Runtime is also resolved from the installer's own recorded default, which makes confident resolution the normal case. The per-plan submodule gate degrades after the phase-level decision and never re-recorded, so a plan that legitimately ran sequentially was denied against a still-fresh phase record. It now records its own, scoped to the plan. A record also authorized any dispatch for four hours. One phase degrading to sequential could silently license an unisolated dispatch in the next. Records now carry phase and plan, the guards require them to match, and the window is minutes rather than hours -- the resolver rewrites it before every dispatch, so a long window bought nothing and only widened the hole. The flag validator rejected any value beginning with two dashes, which is exactly the form Cursor and Windsurf declare, so their real value could never have been stored. Writer and reader also derived the record path differently and diverged inside a linked worktree without local planning state. The predictable path remains a way to silence the control without leaving a trace in the diff. It grants no access an agent with shell does not already have, so it is documented as accepted rather than redesigned around. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3045): correct the staleness boundary and unmask a vacuous parity test The remote runner returned twenty failures. One was a real production defect the boundary case existed to catch: a record whose age exactly equalled the staleness window was treated as fresh, so it stayed authoritative for one tick past its own expiry. Freshness is now strictly inside the window. The parity test meant to stop the two guards' executor lists from drifting could never have failed. Its project fixture was a bare directory rather than a repository, so the non-git inert branch answered before the executor list was ever consulted. It asserted agreement it never actually measured. The fixture is now a real repository, like every sibling in the file. A test also asserted that Windsurf declares the worktree flag. It does not -- Windsurf resolves to no isolation by design, having no named concurrent dispatch to isolate. The test claimed a registry fact that was never true, and a comment in the resolver repeated it. Both corrected, and the test now proves what it should have all along: that the parser accepts any bare flag value, rather than one runtime's supposed value. The new guard was missing from the bundled-hook whitelist, which is the surface that decides what actually ships, and the per-plan gate had gained calls to the launcher without the preamble those calls require. The changeset carried parenthetical product descriptions the purity rule forbids.

Node resolves the home directory from USERPROFILE on Windows and never consults HOME, so both silently read the real runner profile, found no recorded runtime, and asserted against a project the hook had not recognised. The production code was already correct in asking the platform rather than the variable; only the tests were wrong to assume one variable answers everywhere. The helpers now mirror the override onto both. The symlink spoofing test also created a directory symlink unconditionally, which needs elevated privileges on Windows. It survived on this runner, but it would fail on any host without them, so the creation is now attempted and the test skips explicitly when it cannot be done -- a bare return would have counted as a pass and hidden the gap. Skipping alone would have left the platform uncovered, so the behaviour it proves is now also driven in-process through an injected realpath, following the seam already used for the clock. That case no longer depends on privileges at all, and the end-to-end test keeps its original assertions wherever symlinks work.

Tom Boucher	da062c0e0d	chore(#2996): inventory the workflow fragment tree as its own manifest families (#3061) ... * feat(#2996): inventory the workflow fragment tree as its own families Epic #1671 Phase 6.5, the epic's last deliverable. 47 step files across 15 workflows and 13 mode files were invisible to docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json. Not through a missed row — through construction: buildManifest walks each family with a flat readdirSync + isFile() and never recurses, so nothing under gsd-core/workflows/<wf>/ could ever appear. modes/ has been invisible that way since #717 without any gate firing, which is the evidence that this is a generator gap rather than someone forgetting a row. Two new families, workflow_steps and workflow_modes, keyed by <workflow>/<subdir>/<file> rather than a bare basename. That is deliberate: two workflows may each own a regression-gate.md, and a step file may share a name with a top-level workflow. The manifest is compared by JSON equality, so a basename collision would silently drop an entry and read as "up to date". Recursion is bounded at exactly one named subdirectory, and a limit+1 test pins that bound so it cannot quietly become a general walk. tests/inventory-manifest-sync.test.cjs carried its OWN duplicate copy of the FAMILIES table — the DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX divergence class. Adding a family to the generator alone would have left that test verifying six of eight families while still reporting green. The table now lives once in the generator and is imported, so the two surfaces cannot drift; runMain is guarded behind require.main so importing does not execute the CLI. The per-file roster stays in the generated manifest rather than being copied into INVENTORY.md: 60 hand-maintained rows in lockstep with a generated artifact is precisely the drift this file exists to catch. CONTEXT.md's RULESET.MANIFEST-CANONICAL-KEY and DEFECT.INVENTORY-DRIFT both said "six families" and now say eight, with the two key shapes and the import rule recorded. The non-shipping example index was regenerated for the same edits. Note on scope: this issue also asked for a one-fragment-edit proof. That landed independently as PR #3046 and is not rebuilt here. Refs #2996 * fix(#2996): correct a fabricated roster and an inert coverage pragma Isolated review returned one blocker and three lesser findings. All four were real; all four are fixed. BLOCKER — docs/INVENTORY.md claimed the workflow_modes roster was "discuss-phase, sketch". There is no gsd-core/workflows/sketch/ and never has been; the second member is `help` (4 mode files), exactly as the manifest generated by this same diff already listed. A doc contradicting the manifest it describes, in the PR whose whole purpose is closing doc/reality drift. The adjacent hand-maintained "15 workflows" count is also removed: an unenforced number in a table cell is the same staleness class this file exists to catch, and no test guards table-cell counts. MAJOR — the CLI entry guard carried `/* istanbul ignore next */`, which excludes nothing here. This repo measures coverage with c8 (test:coverage:scripts-floor, 55% floor over scripts/**/*.cjs), and c8/v8-to-istanbul honors only `/* c8 ignore next */`. The pragma looked like it was doing something and was not — the same failure shape as a marker that looks like working gating. MINOR — collectNested called statSync/readdirSync unguarded, so a dangling symlink or an EACCES directory under any workflow's steps/ would throw uncaught and red the manifest gate for the entire repo. An entry that cannot be statted is, for inventory purposes, not a countable file — the same disposition as "not a directory". Row 13c pins the behavior with a real dangling symlink. Refs #2996 * chore(#2996): backfill changeset pr number to 3061 * test(#2996): guard the dangling-symlink row on Windows fs.symlinkSync throws EPERM on Windows without elevation or Developer Mode, so row 13c would red the Windows lane. Guarded with the repo's idiom — a process.platform check plus a genuine t.skip() carrying its reason, never a bare return, which node:test counts as a PASS and would hide the gap. Worth recording why this was not caught here: CI classified this PR's diff as inert (no bin/, gsd-core/, or src/ changes), so the full test matrix was SKIPPED entirely — the 'full test (${{ matrix.os }}, ...)' job shows as skipping with its matrix expression unexpanded. The Windows lane never ran. It would have fired on the next PR that does touch core code, in someone else's change. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>	2026-08-04 18:51:12 -04:00
Tom Boucher	ed360cd99f	chore(#2995): extend fragment emission to agents/ and reclaim size-cap headroom (#3058) ... * feat(#2995): extend fragment emission to agents/ across every read point Epic #1671 Phase 6.4. `composeWorkflow` stripped `<!-- gsd:section -->` markers only for `gsd-core/workflows/`, so a marked agent shipped its markers verbatim into every runtime — and agent text is loaded into a subagent's context on every dispatch. The issue proposed widening the `copyWithPathReplacement` guard. That is a no-op for agents: agents never traverse that function. Agent content is read for emission at five independent points, and the obvious chokepoint `stageAgentsForProfile` short-circuits on the DEFAULT `full` profile (`skills === '*'` returns the real unstaged directory), so a hook placed there is dead code on most installs. Composition now happens at two call sites instead of five parallel surfaces: `stageAgentsForRuntimeWithConverter` (with `agentsKind` and `kimiAgentsKind` routed through it via an identity converter) and the inline agent loop in bin/install.js. Both compose BEFORE any path rewrite, so a `.claude/` -> `.windsurf/` regex can never reach inside a marker attribute — the ordering #2930 established for workflows. `installCodexConfig` was the fifth read point: Codex embeds each agent's prompt into a per-agent `.toml` via its own readFileSync. Call-graph analysis missed it; the exhaustive per-runtime emission sweep found it. That is why the new guard is behavioral rather than structural — a sixth read point fails the sweep without anyone remembering to extend a list. tests/agent-fragments-emission.install.test.cjs spawns a real installer for every runtime at every agent-bearing scope, derived from RUNTIME_META and the capability registry at run time so a new runtime cannot be silently under-covered. It asserts markers are absent AND the `when="always"` body is retained, so marker-absence cannot be satisfied by dropping content. An identity-composer negative control proves the assertion can fail. Verified: 0 install failures, 0 marker leaks, body retained on 27 runtime/scope paths; red before the wiring on claude(global+local), zcode(global+local), kimi, codex and opencode. Refs #2995 * chore(#2995): give the tightest agents headroom and correct the design lock Epic #1671 Phase 6.4, second half. `agents/gsd-verifier.md` had 12 bytes of headroom under its 49,152-byte LARGE cap and `agents/gsd-debugger.md` had 147 under its 57,344-byte XL cap. Both now extract reference material to `gsd-core/references/` behind an @-reference — the documented DEFECT.AGENT-FILE-SIZE-CAP-BREACH remedy: gsd-verifier 49,140 -> 46,371 B headroom 12 -> 2,781 gsd-debugger 57,197 -> 48,851 B headroom 147 -> 8,493 Byte accounting proves no content was lost: the combined agent+reference delta is exactly the new files' headers plus the agents' slim replacement blocks. Each agent keeps its routing table and a one-line summary per entry, so it degrades gracefully on a runtime that does not inline @-references. `agents/gsd-planner.md` is untouched and still passes both char guards (49,130 < 49,152); it needed no change, so it took none. The other nine LARGE/XL agents carry NO gsd:section markers, and that is deliberate, not deferred. `when=` selection is read from gsd-core/workflows/section-manifest.json, which gen-section-manifest.cjs derives from gsd-core/workflows/*.md only — shape `{workflows: ...}`, no per-agent key, no per-agent init entry point. An agent atom therefore fails admission gate (2) ("a fact the init seam demonstrably computes at a real entry point") and would evaluate false forever while looking like working gating. Marking agents would manufacture exactly the silent-inertness rot the frozen vocabulary exists to prevent. ADR-1671 gains three amendments, two of which close gaps /adr-phase-coverage found against what actually merged: - The 19 -> 29 vocabulary widening shipped in #2994 with no coordinated ADR amendment, which that bullet's own rule forbids. Recorded now. - `flag:--verify-only` was one of six atoms #2992 withheld and deferred to "the LARGE/XL rollout phase". Five shipped; this one is permanently rejected, and that disposition lived only in a merged PR body. - Phase 6.4's own finding: emission extends to agents/, gating does not. CONTEXT.md's glossary was stale on both seams — Workflow Fragments Module still listed the original 4-atom vocabulary and described when= as "not yet acted on", and Section Manifest Module still described InvocationFacts as {waveFlag, phaseNumber, hasPriorPhases}. Both now match the shipped contract. Inventory manifest regenerated AFTER build:lib per the documented ordering landmine; 19 install-tree fixtures pick up the two new references. Refs #2995 * chore(#2995): correct the compose-site count and mark the raw stager Self-review found two comment defects in the prior commit. The agentsKind comment claimed composition lands at TWO call sites; it is three, since installCodexConfig's per-agent .toml writer was added after that comment was written. And stageAgentsForProfile is now production-dead — both callers route through the composing stager — while staying exported and unit-tested, which makes it a trap: it does a raw copyFileSync and short-circuits to the unstaged source directory under the default profile, so a future caller would silently reintroduce the marker-shipping path. Its JSDoc now says so. * test(#2995): guard the marker-documenting-doc class for agents Widening the composer's scope to agents/ makes reachable the exact class #2930 narrowed scope to avoid: a file that DOCUMENTS the marker syntax with an unfenced example is indistinguishable from a real marker, so the composer drops that line from the emitted artifact. Three rows. A fenced example must compose byte-identically. No shipped agent may carry a marker outside a fence — asserted by parsing every real agent and requiring zero explicit sections, which is what makes the fence protection load-bearing rather than decorative. And a non-vacuity row asserts an UNFENCED marker IS parsed as a real marker, so if that ever stops being true the second row is guarding nothing. Also applies two review findings: stageAgentsForProfile's new JSDoc claimed it had no production caller, which is false — bin/install.js's _stageAgents still calls it, and its consumers compose before writing. Corrected to state the invariant instead. And a let/const nit in the emission sweep. * fix(#2995): keep verifier status vocabulary in the agent, fix a wrong fixture The first remote run came back red with three failures. Both root causes were mine. 1. tests/agent-frontmatter.test.cjs requires agents/gsd-verifier.md to literally contain HOLLOW and DISCONNECTED. The Step 4b extraction moved that status vocabulary into gsd-core/references/verifier-wiring-patterns.md, so the agent no longer had it. Byte accounting said no content was lost, and byte-wise that was true — but a contract required those tokens to live IN THE AGENT. That is ADR-1671:66's flexReserve floor stated concretely: a load-bearing fragment must not be trimmed out of its host, and "the bytes still exist somewhere" is not the test. The two status tables are restored to the agent and deliberately mirrored in the reference with a note saying so, so the procedure there still reads standalone. gsd-verifier lands at 47,069 B — headroom 12 -> 2,083, rather than the 2,781 the first attempt claimed. 2. Row 12b of the new marker-documentation guard asserted that an unfenced marker example parses as a real marker, and threw instead: "unmatched /gsd:section close marker". The grammar is WHOLE-LINE only. The fixture had put the OPEN marker inline mid-sentence, so it was correctly not recognised as an open while the close, on its own line, was. That is a real refinement of the hazard this guard exists for: only a marker on its OWN line is mis-parsed — which is exactly how a documentation example is normally written. Row 12b now uses a whole-line marker, and a new row 12c pins the inline case as explicitly NOT a marker. No test was weakened to accommodate the change; the change was corrected to satisfy the tests.
