003d982c83 fix(#4623): keep repo-wide planning docs out of the verification digest, and accept --files on verification.fingerprint (#4749)
* fix(#4623): keep repo-wide planning docs out of the verification digest, and accept --files on verification.fingerprint

Two defects in the covered-input fingerprint (#4155), one issue.

1. `computeCoveredDigest` hashed the whole bytes of every declared path
   uniformly, so `.planning/ROADMAP.md` and `.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md` —
   which every phase rewrites as ordinary bookkeeping, and which the closing
   phase's own `phase.complete` / `requirements mark-complete` rewrite AFTER
   the verifier ran — flipped every phase that declared them to `stale` on
   zero implementation change, and from there `isPhaseComplete` →
   `init.manager` → `complete-milestone`'s `ALL_PHASES_VERIFIED` gate.
   Fingerprint v2 leaves any direct child of a planning root out of the
   hash: `.planning/` itself, plus the phase's own planning root (the parent
   of its `phases/`, so `planningDir`'s `<project>/` and `workstreams/<ws>/`
   layouts are covered without the digest knowing what a workstream is —
   `sharedPlanningRoots` / `isSharedPlanningDoc`, defined by position rather
   than a name list so the set cannot drift; a root is accepted only when the
   phase dir sits under a `phases/` directory inside `.planning/`). Such a path is still validated
   exactly as every other covered path (confined, present, a regular file —
   the fail-closed contract is unchanged); only its bytes are ignored, and a
   declaration made only of shared documents fails closed like an empty one.
   A stored digest names its version, and `readVerificationStatus` now
   recomputes under THAT version (`parseFingerprintVersion`,
   `KNOWN_FINGERPRINT_VERSIONS`): a legacy v1 report keeps v1 semantics
   until it is re-fingerprinted, so the upgrade alone stales nothing; a
   version this build cannot recompute fails closed.

2. `verification.fingerprint` received a raw positional slice, so
   `--files a`, `--files "a,b"` and `--files a --files b` all put the literal
   token into the covered set and failed closed as "a covered file is
   missing, unreadable, or escapes the project root" — the message that
   convinced the reporting project the digest was permanently
   unrecomputable. `parseFingerprintFileArgs` accepts every form (plus
   `--files=a,b`, freely mixed with bare positionals), treats any other
   `--flag` and an empty `--files` value as usage errors that say so, and
   the phase-dir argument must now be an existing directory: omitting it
   used to take the first covered file as the phase dir and print a
   plausible digest over the rest at exit 0.

Regression tests (tests/verification-status.test.cjs, #4623 block): the
cross-phase case from the report, the same-phase `requirements
mark-complete` / `phase.complete` cases from the thread, a workstream-scoped
root, v1-preserved / unknown-version-stale, the fail-closed cases (missing,
directory, escaping symlink, all-shared), every `--files` form against the
bare form, the unknown-flag / empty-value / omitted-phase-dir errors, and
AC5's zero-file error. Verified failing against the pre-fix source: 29 of 34
fail, the 7 that pass pin behaviour the fix must leave unchanged.

Docs: CONTEXT.md Verification Module, agents/gsd-verifier.md's
covered_files instruction (rewritten in place — the file sits 21 bytes under
its LARGE hard cap), gsd-core/templates/verification-report.md.

Fixes #4623

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-verifier.md — the #4155 covered_files instruction now states that planning-root docs are digest-inert (#4623); +18 bytes, under the LARGE cap

092d9256b8 fix(#4748): carry a letter-suffixed phase id through the seven shell sites that aborted or truncated it (#4768)
* test(#4748): pin the letter-axis defect at the seven shell sites outside #4660's six

Extends tests/nsegment-phase-grammar.test.cjs one class over: for each of the
seven sites the live shell lines are read off disk by anchor and executed in
bash against a letter-suffixed fixture. The four `$((10#$PHASE_INT))` split
sites must yield PHASE_N without a shell error for `03A` / `12A` / `3A` /
`03A.1.2` and the commit-scope ERE they build must match both `feat(3A-01):`
and `feat(03A-1):`; the review-file lookup must bind init's `padded_phase`
rather than re-pad in shell; the `--from`/`--to`/`--only` and
plan-review-convergence extractions must return `12A` / `23A.1.2` (and
`23.1.2`) whole; the legacy normalizer must pad `3A` to `03A` and must not
mangle an already-padded `08`. Every pre-existing shape (`06`, `08.5`,
`23.1.2`, `36.14`) is a regression control.

tests/init.test.cjs asserts `init execute-phase` emits `padded_phase` for a
directory-backed `03A`, a ROADMAP-only `4B` (→ `04B`), the existing ROADMAP
fallback `1` (→ `01`), and `null` when the phase is not found.

Negative control against the unfixed tree: 41 failures in the grammar file,
exactly the "(fails before the fix)" cases and the three derived from them
(scope ERE, three-flag extraction, the `08` octal trap); 2 in init.test.cjs,
both the new assertions. Every regression control already green.

* fix(#4748): carry a letter-suffixed phase id through the seven shell sites that aborted or truncated it

The canonical phase-number grammar (src/phase-id.cts) is digits, an optional
uppercase letter, then dotted segments — `12A`, `3A`, `23A.1.2` are documented
shapes that `init`, `phase-id.cts` and `phase remove` renumbering already
round-trip. Seven shell sites in shipped workflows and references still
assumed digits-and-dots. Four classes, one fix each:

Class 1 — `PHASE_INT=${PHASE_NUMBER%%.*}; $((10#$PHASE_INT))` (execute-phase.md
×2, completion-reconciliation.md, tdd.md). The post-#4619 split stops at the
first DOT, so on `03A` the "integer" is `03A` and bash aborts with `value too
great for base`. Split at the first NON-DIGIT instead (`%%[!0-9]*`): the
integer half is a pure digit run, and the letter rides along in the rest the
way the dotted fraction already did — `03A.1.2` → PHASE_N `3A\.1\.2`, so the
#4003 zero-pad-tolerant scope ERE matches both `feat(3A-01):` and
`feat(03A-1):`. Byte-identical output for every id that worked before.

Class 2 — `PADDED=$(printf "%02d" "${PHASE_NUMBER}")` before the REVIEW.md
lookup (execute-phase.md). `printf` cannot pad a letter id (prints `03`,
exits 1) — and cannot even re-pad an already-padded `08`, which bash reads as
an invalid octal and prints as `00`, so the lookup resolved phases 08 and 09
to `00-REVIEW.md` today. The disk path hands the workflow the directory's
padded number but the ROADMAP fallback hands it the heading's bare one, which
is why the re-pad existed. `cmdInitExecutePhase` now emits `padded_phase`
through `normalizePhaseName`, exactly as the plan-phase and code-review inits
do, and the workflow binds `{padded_phase}` instead of re-deriving.

Class 3 — `grep -oE '[0-9]+\.?[0-9]*'` (autonomous.md `--from`/`--to`/`--only`,
plan-review-convergence.md). Stops at the letter, so `--from 12A` ran from
phase 12 with no error. Now the canonical ERE `[0-9]+[A-Z]?(\.[0-9]+)*`, which
also closes the single-segment dot-axis gap the same shape carried (`23.1.2`
→ `23.1`, #4568's class in a spelling neither lint saw).

Class 4 — the legacy manual normalizer (phase-argument-parsing.md, reached
from mvp-phase.md). Its two branches (`^[0-9]+$`, `^[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$`) left
`12A` unpadded and never padded `3A` to the `03A` a directory carries; its
integer branch also hit the same `printf` octal trap on `08`. One branch for
the whole canonical token now, padding the digit run via `$((10#…))`.
Whether this legacy surface should instead be retired in favour of `init`'s
normalization is the maintainer call the issue names; extending it keeps the
documented contract true either way.

Driven end to end: `init execute-phase 3A` on a fixture with a
`03A-letter-variant/` directory emits `phase_number: "03A"` and now
`padded_phase: "03A"`; on a ROADMAP-only `### Phase 4B:` it emits `"4B"` /
`"04B"`. The issue's own evidence line claimed `padded_phase` was already in
the execute-phase init output — it was not; that key is emitted by the
code-review / plan-phase inits, which is where the claim was read from.

* chore(#4634): extend lint-phase-id-drift with three ratchets for letter-hostile phase-id consumers

The rules that landed with #4619, #4568 and #4660 police grammar MIRRORS —
regexes that describe a phase id. The #4748 sites are CONSUMERS of one, and
every existing rule reported clean on them: the shell-arithmetic rule's
`_INT` escape trusts a NAME the dot-only split did not earn on `03A`; the
`[0-9]+\.?[0-9]*` shape is neither the bounded form the single-segment rule
bans nor the unbounded form the letterless rule inspects; and nothing looked
at `printf "%02d"` at all. Three narrow additions, one per shape:

- findDotOnlyIntegerSplitDrift — `X_INT=${<phase-var>%%.*}`; the safe split
  is `%%[!0-9]*`. Keys on the SOURCE variable being phase-carrying.
- findLooseDottedPhaseRegexDrift — `[0-9]+\.?[0-9]*` / `\d+\.?\d*` on a
  phase-carrying line; the canonical form is `[0-9]+[A-Z]?(\.[0-9]+)*`.
  Disjoint from the two sibling regex rules by construction.
- findShellPhasePrintfPadDrift — `printf "%0Nd" …` whose arguments name a
  phase-carrying, non-`_INT` variable; a pad of an `_INT` via `$((10#…))`
  and a `{padded_phase}` binding are the sanctioned shapes.

Same `<!-- phase-id-owner: … -->` sanction, same scan roots as their nearest
sibling (shell idioms over workflows + references, the regex shape over
workflows + references + agents), same documented limit of a per-line
textual scan. The post-#4619 comment that described the `_INT` convention
as proven by `%%.*` is corrected to name the digit-run split. Confirmed
against the base commit: each rule fires on exactly its own unfixed sites
(2+1+1, 3+1, 1+1) and zero violations remain on the fixed tree.

* chore(#4748): refresh the compact-content benchmark baseline and acknowledge emitted growth

The three top-level workflow files below grew by the letter-aware split, the
canonical extraction ERE, the `{padded_phase}` binding, and the comment lines
that name the grammar each site now honours. The committed compact-content
benchmark moved with them; refreshed with `benchmark-compact-content.cjs

* fix(#4748): name padded_phase in execute-phase.md's init parse list

A `{field}` token inside a workflow bash block is substituted from the init
JSON only for fields the workflow tells the model to parse. `phase_number`
is on that list; `padded_phase` was not, so the `PADDED="{padded_phase}"`
binding at the review lookup would have been a literal — for every phase,
not only letter ones. Found by the pre-file adversarial review (claim 2, the
author's own named suspicion); the test now asserts the parse list carries
the field beside `phase_number`.

* chore(#4634): key the dot-only split rule on its source and widen the printf rule to any %d form

Two false negatives from the pre-file adversarial review of the three #4748
ratchets: `PHASE_PREFIX=${PHASE_NUMBER%%.*}` escaped the split rule because
the destination did not end in `_INT` (the defect is the split, not the
name it lands in), and `printf '%02d'` / `printf "%2d"` escaped the printf
rule because it required double quotes and the zero flag (`%d` cannot parse
a letter id under any width). Both rules now key on the phase-carrying
SOURCE alone; base-site firing counts are unchanged (2+1+1, 1+1) and the
fixed tree stays at zero. The `[[:digit:]]` spelling and the `/phase/i`
heuristic remain the sibling rules' documented limits.

* test(#4748): compose init's emitted padded_phase through the live REVIEW.md lookup

The Class 2 site is a `{padded_phase}` template token, which no test can
execute as written. This substitutes the value init emits
(`normalizePhaseName`) into the three live lookup lines and runs them
against a fixture, so the emitted value, the binding, the path construction
and the status extraction are exercised together — `03A-REVIEW.md` and
`08-REVIEW.md` each resolve to their own status. Suggested by the resumed
adversarial review pass (claim C).

* test(#4748): move the #4619 and #4003 source-parity pins to the letter-safe split

tests/execute-phase-decimal-arithmetic.test.cjs and
tests/safe-resume-gate-anchoring.test.cjs pin the four Class 1 sites'
snippet byte-for-byte, so the first-non-digit split reddened both in the
whole-suite run (scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs does not select either file for
a workflow edit — the scoped run was green). The pinned snippet is now the
shipped one, and the behavioural half of the #4619 file gains the letter
case (`03A` → `3A`, `23A.1.2` → `23A\.1\.2`) beside its decimal cases.

* chore(#4634): key the dot-only split rule on the _INT destination again, tolerating the quoted spelling

Keying on the source alone (the previous commit's widening, from a review
probe) flags `PARENT_PHASE="${PHASE_NUMBER%%.*}"` in
gap-closure-artifacts.md — a correct derivation that wants everything
before the first dot, letter included. The defect this rule polices is a
dot split INTO the name the shell-arithmetic rule trusts as an integer, so
`_INT` is the discriminator on purpose; the quoted spelling that site uses
is now tolerated so the same shape into an `_INT` cannot hide behind it.
Base-site firing unchanged (2+1+1), zero on the fixed tree, and the
parent-phase line is pinned as a silent case.

PLAN_STRATEGY=converge is set only by an explicit --converge/--cross-ai,

779f67cb11 fix(#4378): mint collision-free SEED-YYMMDD-xxx seed ids instead of a shared count (#4754)
* test(#4378): regression tests for collision-free seed ids

* fix(#4378): mint collision-free SEED-YYMMDD-xxx ids, not a shared count

plant-seed derived the next seed id from 'ls .planning/seeds/SEED-*.md | wc -l'.
.planning/seeds/ is shared but each worktree only sees what has merged, so two
workstreams planting before either merges computed the same id and git merged
both files silently.

The id is now the local date plus a 3-char random base36 suffix -- the shape
.planning/quick/ already uses -- computed from knowledge one worktree has alone,
with a same-day regen guard. deriveSeedIdentity learns the new canonical grammar
alongside legacy SEED-NNN (whose parsing never changes), the --enrich parser and
the filename-prefix fallback keep the full new-format id, and the docs that
state the filename shape move to it.

The prefix fallback previously truncated any non-pure-numeric id at
'SEED-<digits>' -- the same one-id-two-answers ambiguity the issue reports,
reproduced one level down.

* fix(#4378): harden seed id generation per adversarial review

- parse-idea: anchor the --enrich extractor to the flag and capture the
  complete id, uppercase-tolerant; a leftmost 'SEED-[0-9]+' truncated an
  uppercase or malformed suffix to its date and enriched an arbitrary
  same-day seed via head -1. Ambiguous and unmatched targets now fail
  closed instead.
- generate-seed-id: tolerate the expected SIGPIPE under pipefail, abort
  loudly when the suffix cannot be drawn (an empty suffix would collapse
  every seed's id to the bare date), and run the same-day regen guard as
  a find existence test (the 'ls <glob>' shape trips the #3409 drift
  guard and degenerates under a stray nullglob).
- deriveSeedIdentity: document the theoretical legacy/new grammar
  ambiguity (6-digit counter + 3-char base36 slug, no frontmatter).
- changeset: state the residual same-day collision bound instead of
  implying zero.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: plant-seed.md — the counting step became hardened date+random generation with explicit failure modes; growth is the failure handling, not duplicated logic

* fix(#4378): address standards and spec review findings

- tests: move the allow-test-rule marker to its suppression site (the
  file-header placement was inert per CONTRIBUTING site-scoping); add
  width-boundary coverage (5/7-digit dates, 2/4-char suffixes pin the
  documented branch behavior); add a writer-to-reader parity property
  that parses the mint widths out of the shipped workflow so the two
  grammar owners cannot drift; cover uppercase ids end-to-end in the
  reader.
- plant-seed.md: draw/retry restructured as one loop with a loud
  terminal failure; SEED_SUFX renamed SEED_SUFFIX; regen guard drops
  the redundant head -1; the ambiguity error no longer advises an
  impossible 'complete id' for duplicate legacy ids.
- commands.cts: refresh the cmdListSeeds comment still describing

* test(#4378): correct boundary expectations to the module's real branch behavior

The first matrix run on the boundary tests caught my hand-trace of the
regex branches, not a module defect: the slug regex's alternation
backtracks to the legacy branch whenever the canonical branch cannot
complete (so the slug is the remainder after the legacy numeric
prefix), and the 7-digit case fails the canonical branch at its 7th
digit before the dash. Pin the verified values.

* docs(#4378): backfill changeset PR number

* fix(#4378): audit seed identity uses the canonical grammar

Review of this PR found the audit surface publishing a fused filename
stem (SEED-081-region for SEED-081-region.md) where list-seeds reports
the canonical id -- one id, two answers across surfaces, the same
ambiguity class the issue files. scanSeeds now derives identity through
the SAME deriveSeedIdentity the list-seeds gate uses (frontmatter id,
then filename id-prefix, then stem), and audit-open acknowledge
resolves --seed-id by scanning for the derived identity, falling back
to the literal stem so callers scripted against pre-canonical output
keep working. Roll-in per the fix-inline rule: found during this PR's
review, same seed-identity seam.

RED probe: pre-fix audit published seed_id SEED-081-region-becomes /
slug 081-region-becomes for a legacy seeded file; post-fix SEED-081 /
region-becomes, matching list-seeds.

* test(#4378): probe timeout uses the class norm after windows-lane timeout

The windows conformance shard failed its bounded sh -c probes at the
local 5000ms bound (cold sh.exe spawn under shard load) while the
identical code passed this PR's two earlier windows waves. The probe
now uses PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS from the class-norm module instead of a local
override, per the helpers/timeouts.cjs convention.

cbbde6786a fix(#4546): deferred UAT follow-ups no longer block completion and promote to the backlog (#4769)
* test(#4546): failing-first tests for deferred uat follow-ups

* chore(#4546): regenerate derived lists for the deferred-promotion suite

The new verify-work-deferred-promotion suite changes the tests/ tree the
macOS conformance-tier classifier tracks and is a novel file under the
verify prefix in the test-file-count ratchet; both derived lists are
regenerated/registered per their own guards' instructions.

* fix(#4546): deferred uat follow-ups no longer block, and get promoted

Two halves of one disconnect (#1921's deferral design vs the completion
predicate):

- uat-predicate: the item parser now captures the block's reason: line
  alongside result:. A skipped item whose reason carries the
  verify-work writer's 'Deferred follow-up:' template is a deliberate
  deferral -- non-blocking, flagged deferred in the report. Quote-
  tolerant (the writer wraps the value) and case-insensitive. A
  reasonless skip, a non-deferral reason, pending/blocked/issue/
  failed/missing all still block, exactly as before.
- verify-work complete_session: when the Deferred Follow-Ups section is
  non-empty, offer to promote the items to a ROADMAP.md 999.x backlog
  entry reusing next.md's prior_phase_completeness entry shape, with a
  --files-scoped commit. Offer, not auto-mutation -- matches the
  workflow's interactive convention and next.md's own prompt style.

* chore(#4546): refresh compact-content benchmark baseline

verify-work.md grew (the #4546 deferred-follow-up promotion offer in
complete_session); the registered split's token counts moved with it.
Baseline recomputed with the script's own --write.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: verify-work.md — complete_session gained the deferred-follow-up promotion offer (detection, [P]/[K] choice, the next.md-shaped 999.x entry template, and the --files-scoped ROADMAP.md commit); the growth is the new contract text, not duplication

* fix(#4546): gate/audit agreement and review fixes for deferred follow-ups

- src/uat.cts categorizeItem: a skipped item carrying the deferred
  follow-up template reason now categorizes as 'deferred' (the category
  already existed for deferred-items.md entries) instead of being
  misfiled into the blocked families by keyword match -- the gate/audit
  agreement #3078-CR expects, restored in the permissive direction the
  #1921 design intends. Checked BEFORE the keyword families so '...
  on the release build next version' is not build_needed.
- verify-work.md promotion step: numbering scans for the smallest free
  999.n (count races + non-contiguous history), one backlog entry per
  deferred follow-up, ROADMAP.md-absent behavior specified, idea text
  newline-flattened, Deferred at placeholder harmonized with next.md.
- DEFERRED_REASON_RE: trust assumption documented (authoring contract,
  not a security boundary; non-matching spellings block fail-closed).
- tests: the property now drives evaluateUatPassed and derives
  expectations from the input spec (never restates the matcher),
  includes the no-result-line branch, and pins its seed; the parity
  test drops try/finally for the approved pattern, uses createTempDir,
  sites its allow-test-rule marker at the suppression site, and asserts
  the literal [P]/[K] choices.

* fix(#4546): close promotion-test docstring, drop fc replay-path misuse, refresh baseline

The final matrix run caught three defects in my own review-fix commit:
the parity test file's JSDoc was left unterminated (the whole file
parsed as one comment -- zero tests registered, hence the file-level
'test failed' the runner reported); fast-check's replay-path parameter
was misused as a label (invalid path at replay); and the workflow-text
ambiguity fixes re-drifted the compact-content benchmark baseline.

* docs(#4546): add Fixed changeset for deferred follow-up coverage

* docs(#4546): backfill changeset PR number

* fix(#4546): use the pattern seam escapeRegex for shape-marker matching

The hand-rolled metacharacter escape in the shape-marker assertion
tripped local/no-adhoc-regex-escape, whose named remedy this adopts.

aeac47b95a fix(#4465): bound /gsd:undo commit selection to the phase directory and HEAD (#4472)
* fix(#4465): bound /gsd:undo commit selection to the phase directory and HEAD

`--phase` documented a primary path reading `.planning/.phase-manifest.json`,
but nothing in the repository writes that file, so the documented fallback was
the only reachable path:

    git log --oneline --no-merges --all | grep -E "\(0*${TARGET_PHASE}(-[0-9]+)?\):" | head -50

That selection has no milestone bound and no reachability bound, and it feeds
`git revert --no-commit`. On a project that reuses a phase number it stages
deletion of a previous milestone's files, under a confirmation gate that
displays only `{hash} — {message}` — the one field that carries no milestone
discriminator.

Port the #3995 anchor already live in code-review.md: resolve the phase's own
directory via `find-phase` (which resolves through planningDir, so it is
workstream-correct), take PHASE_START as the first commit adding anything under
it, and select over `PHASE_START^..HEAD`. Drop `--all`. Fail closed when no
anchor resolves rather than widening to a repository-wide search, and report
truncation instead of silently capping at 50.

Also resolve the dead manifest read rather than leaving documented-but-
unreachable behaviour, and hoist dependency_check onto the workstream-resolved
planning root — it read a hardcoded `.planning/ROADMAP.md` and
`.planning/phases/`, which are the wrong tree under an active workstream.

* fix(#4465): close three defects the pre-create adversarial review found

Root-commit off-by-one: `${PHASE_START}..HEAD` EXCLUDES PHASE_START, so when the
phase's first commit is the repository root the selection silently dropped it
and the undo refused legitimate work. The root branch now selects over `HEAD`.

Empty-selection exit status: `grep` exits 1 on no match, and the removed
`| head -50` had been masking that rc. Both selection pipelines now end in
`|| true` so an empty selection reaches the workflow's own Empty check instead
of aborting the block.

Truncation stop was documented for MODE=phase only; MODE=plan could still cap
silently. Both modes now carry it.

Also documents two residuals the review surfaced rather than leaving them
implicit: a revision range is ancestry and not chronology, so a pre-phase side
branch merged in after PHASE_START stays selectable; and the `--diff-filter=A`
anchor does not follow renames, so an archived phase directory under-selects
(reverts too little or refuses, never too much).

Tests: 12 assertions, negative-controlled. A-H and K-L are RED against the
pre-fix workflow; J is RED against the intermediate revision that carried the
off-by-one; I is green in both directions by design.

* test(#4465): execute undo.md's selection fences against a git fixture

The shipped regression test matched substrings in undo.md's bash fences. A
substring cannot tell a live invocation from a dead one, and this is the
boundary/reachability defect class this repo's own conventions want driven
with limit-1/limit/limit+1 execution proof. So the fences the runtime runs —
sliced out of undo.md by content anchor, never by position — are now replayed
with `bash -c` inside createTempGitProject fixtures against the real
`gsd-tools.cjs`, the same fence-execution shape #2308 and #2352 use.

Ten executed cases: the fixture's own negative control (the retired `--all`
grep over-selects the archived milestone and a dead branch), `--phase` and
`--plan` selecting only the current milestone's HEAD-reachable instance, the
single-milestone selection unchanged, limit-1 (a matching pre-phase commit
excluded, PHASE_START itself included), the root-commit branch selecting over
`HEAD`, fail-closed on an absent phase in both --phase and --plan (empty PHASE_DIR and UNDO_RANGE), the
active workstream's phase directory winning over the root's, and
dependency_check's `planning inspect --pick generated_from.planning_root --raw`
resolving the workstream root, the project root, and the `.planning` fallback.

Skipped on win32 with the #2352 precedent's reason: the fences are POSIX bash
driven through `bash -c`; the shape half still runs there.

Negative-controlled against the pre-fix undo.md (upstream/next): 11 of 12
shape assertions red, and the executed block fails at fence extraction.

Shape test L now pins the >50 refusal message in both modes, not only its
heading — the cross-AI round review removed the paragraphs under intact
headings and L stayed green; it now fails on that mutation.

* fix(#4465): refuse an archived-milestone PHASE_DIR in both undo modes

`find-phase` searches the live `phases/` directory first, then every
`milestones/v<X.Y>-phases/` directory in ascending version order, and its
ambiguity check is scoped to one directory: the `matches.length > 1` test sits
inside `cmdFindPhase`'s per-`searchDir` loop (`src/phase.cts`). A phase number
that is not live therefore resolves silently to the OLDEST archived milestone
carrying one, with no warning.

Anchoring there is wrong in both directions at once. The oldest commit adding
that path is the archival move, so the phase's real work predates the window
and falls outside it, while the window runs forward from that archival through
every later milestone -- where the subject grep matches THEIR same-numbered
phase. Driven on a two-archived-milestone fixture, `--phase 03` selected v2.0's
`feat(03-01): add search index` and `docs(03-01): v2.0 phase plan` and excluded
v1.0's own `feat(03-01): implement auth endpoint`. On `git revert --no-commit`
that is the cross-milestone contamination this PR exists to close, recurring.

Both modes now blank PHASE_DIR on an archived resolution and refuse with their
own message, so the existing fail-closed rule stays load-bearing even if the
refusal's prose is not honored.

The "archived or renamed phase directory under-selects" residual claimed this
failure could revert "too little or refuse, never too much". That was wrong in
the direction that matters; it is rewritten to cover renames only, and the
archival case is recorded as refused rather than disclosed.

Tests: a two-archived-milestone fixture, a negative control asserting the
unguarded window selects v2.0's two commits and none of v1.0's, refusals in
both --phase and --plan, and an inertness check on a live resolution.

* docs(#4465): close the three Minor review items on undo.md and its test

Purpose line: it still advertised rolling back "using the phase manifest",
the exact `.planning/.phase-manifest.json` mechanism this PR removes. Test B
already reads the whole file, so scope is not why it missed this -- B greps the
hyphenated `phase-manifest` token, the filename, while the purpose line named
the same dead mechanism in prose. Test N pins the <purpose> block itself, which
is spelling-independent; widening B's pattern to /manifest/i instead would fire
on any future sentence that merely mentions one.

Merge-commit anchors: `git log --diff-filter=A -- "${PHASE_DIR}"` does not walk
merge diffs by default. A directory added on a side branch is still found -- the
side-branch commit that added it is in history -- so the uncovered case is
narrower than "introduced via a merge": it is a directory first appearing in the
merge RESOLUTION. The information is not absent from history, only unrequested:
`git log -m` prints that add once per parent. Recorded as a residual rather than
fixed -- the failure is a refusal, and the evil-merge fixture costs more than a
safe-direction branch is worth.

allow-test-rule marker: suppression is site-scoped, and CONTRIBUTING.md pins the
window at MAX_MARKER_LOOKAHEAD_LINES = 8 with only blanks and comments between.
The file-header marker sat 43 lines above the first `readFileSync` with requires
and a function definition in between, so it was inert for both read sites. Moved
to each site. The markers are belt-and-braces today, and NOT because the rule
ignores `RegExp.test` -- it handles `regex.test(tracked)` explicitly
(no-source-grep.cjs:239, :597-605). Neither read is tracked at all:
`looksLikeSourcePath` (:378-390) admits only .cjs/.cts/.js/.mjs/.mts/.ts and
UNDO_PATH is a .md, and the second site's reader is `readFileNormalized`, which
the rule does not recognise as `readFileSync`. They become load-bearing if
either scope widens.

* docs(#4465): disclose the same-number-and-slug residual in undo.md

The round's own cross-model body audit found this stated in the PR description
and nowhere in the deployed workflow -- which is the half that survives merge,
and the half this PR's whole argument says residuals belong in.

The anchor is the CURRENT path and `--diff-filter=A` does not follow renames, so
a later milestone that re-creates the same literal directory (`03-auth` again,
not merely phase `03` again) makes the oldest add at that path the previous
occupant's. The archived-milestone refusal added this round structurally cannot
reach it: `find-phase` returns the LIVE directory, so nothing is under
`milestones/` to refuse.

Driven -- v1.0 and v2.0 both using `.planning/phases/03-auth`, v1.0 archived in
between: PHASE_DIR resolves live, the guard correctly does not fire, the anchor
is `docs(03-01): v1 plan`, and the selection returns all four v1+v2 phase-03
commits. `code-review.md` carries the same residual on the same anchor, where it
is read-only; on `git revert --no-commit` it is not, so the note points at
`/gsd:undo --last N`.

Documented rather than fixed: following renames across a re-created path needs a
phase identity that a directory name does not carry, which is the same wall
residual 1 hits.

* fix(#4465): refuse a LIVE phase directory whose name is also archived

Self-found this round, from the cross-model audit of the previous commit: that
commit disclosed same-number-and-slug reuse as a residual and asserted closing it
needed a phase identity a directory name does not carry. The audit refuted the
second half by producing a fix, and it is cheap and safe-direction, so the case
is now refused rather than documented.

`--diff-filter=A` does not follow renames, so a later milestone that re-creates
the same literal directory (`03-auth` again, not merely phase `03` again) anchors
on the EARLIER occupant's add commit and the window opens there. The archived
refusal added earlier in this round structurally cannot reach it: `find-phase`
returns the LIVE directory, so nothing is under `milestones/` to refuse. Driven
before the guard -- v1.0 and v2.0 both at `.planning/phases/03-auth`, v1.0
archived in between: PHASE_DIR resolves live, the archive guard correctly stays
inert, the anchor is `docs(03-01): v1 plan`, and all four v1+v2 phase-03 commits
are selected. That is a previous milestone's work staged for `git revert
--no-commit`.

The guard needs no identity reconstruction: the same basename present under an
archived `milestones/v*-phases/` means the path has been used before, so the
anchor is untrustworthy and both modes refuse with their own message. It fails
toward refusing a legitimate undo of the reusing milestone, which `--last N`
covers; the alternative is reverting the earlier one's commits.

Tests: a reused-slug fixture, a negative control asserting the unguarded window
reaches back into v1.0 (all four commits), refusals in both modes, and an
inertness check on a distinct slug. All three new checks red against the pre-fix
fence.

Also narrows the changeset, which still claimed selection "no longer" reaches a
previous milestone -- true of the archived route, not of this one until now --
and corrects the concurrent-workstreams residual, which claimed the window
removed the previous-milestone class "entirely" while this case remained open.

* fix(#4465): harden the reused-path refusal against its own false positives

The cross-model audit of the previous commit refuted four of its claims. All
four were right; this closes them.

A REAL BUG: the refusal message interpolated `${PHASE_DIR}` after the fence had
already blanked it, so it would have rendered "Phase 03 resolves to , but that
directory name is also archived at ...". The live path is now preserved in
`PHASE_DIR_LIVE` before blanking, and a test pins that it survives.

THREE FALSE-REFUSAL ROUTES, each of which could block a legitimate undo:

- `[ -e ]` accepted a regular FILE where an archived phase directory would sit.
  The evidence the refusal claims is "an earlier milestone used this path", and
  only a directory is that. Now `[ -d ]`.
- The glob `v*-phases` accepted milestone directory names `cmdFindPhase` itself
  rejects -- its filter is /^v\d+.*-phases$/, so `vnondigit-phases` is not a
  milestone it would ever resolve. Refusing over one is refusing on evidence the
  producer discards. Now `v[0-9]*-phases`, in the collision check and in the
  archived-resolution guard alike.
- `${PHASE_DIR%/phases/*}` silently left the path unchanged when it carried no
  `/phases/` segment, so the scan ran against the wrong root and read as clean.
  The strip must now have fired. Outside today's producer contract either way --
  cmdFindPhase's live output always carries `/phases/` -- so this hardens a claim
  rather than fixing a reachable defect, and is stated as such.

The commit message and the changeset both asserted the guard proves the name is
"archived"; before this commit it proved only that some entry existed. Both are
narrowed to what the fence now actually establishes, and the changeset headline
no longer claims more than the anchor plus the two refusals deliver -- residual 2
(a range is ancestry, not chronology) is untouched by either.

Tests: a file-not-directory twin, a malformed `vnondigit-phases` twin, and the
preserved live path. All three red against the pre-hardening fence, along with
shape test M.

* docs(#4465): disclose what the reused-path scan does not survive

A fifth audit pass refuted three claims in the previous commit. Two are wording,
one is a real fail-open; none is fixed by more shell, so all three are stated.

The wording: `v[0-9]*-phases` was described as MIRRORING cmdFindPhase's
/^v\d+.*-phases$/. It is not equivalent -- the glob's `*` matches a newline where
the regex's `.` does not, so a directory named `v6<newline>-phases` is accepted
here and rejected there. It tracks the filter closely enough to reject the
malformed siblings that motivated it; it does not mirror it, and the comment no
longer says so. The changeset likewise said the twin is "an archived phase
directory", where the check establishes only that a directory of that name exists
under an archived milestone -- narrowed to that.

The fail-open: this collision check is the only fence in undo.md that relies on
pathname expansion (every other one uses `case`, which `set -f` does not affect).
Under a runtime with globbing disabled the scan is skipped silently and a genuine
collision passes; under `shopt -s failglob` a NON-match aborts the fence. Both sit
outside the shell state this workflow assumes throughout, and defending only this
fence while the rest of the file assumes defaults would be inconsistent -- so it
is a documented residual rather than a hardened one.

Also disclosed: the check is conservative at two edges. `[ -d ]` follows symlinks,
and an empty directory of the right name counts, so either can refuse an undo a
stricter ownership test would allow. That direction is the intended one -- refusing
too often costs a `--last N`, refusing too rarely reverts another milestone's work.

No test is added. Asserting behaviour under `set -f` would pin a shell state the
workflow does not otherwise support, and the two conservative edges are the
documented intent rather than defects.

* chore(#4465): register the new regression test in the conformance-tier list

Round 3's only blocker. The platform-conformance-tier classifier, its generated
registry and the test that asserts the registry is fresh all landed together on
`next` in `bcd99696d` (#4591 / #4598) on 2026-09-10 08:36 -0400 -- a day after
this branch's last push, so the gate did not exist when the branch was last
green. This PR adds a unit-suite test file, the classifier's content scan selects
it, and a list regenerated on `next` without it is therefore stale the moment the
two meet.

(The review cites `0b928fe28c` for that landing. That commit is #4592, four hours
later the same day, and `git diff-tree` shows it touched only
`scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs`, `scripts/gen-platform-conformance-tier.cjs` and
those two files' tests -- not the generated registry at all. The date and the
diagnosis hold either way.)

Regenerated with `node scripts/gen-platform-conformance-tier.cjs --write` on the
rebased tree: one line, 267 -> 268 entries. The `--target macos` list is
unaffected -- it writes a different file, `macos-conformance-tier.generated.cjs`,
and its classifier does not select this test (198, already matching) -- so
`lint:generated-sync`'s second conformance-tier link needed nothing.

**Two different baselines, stated so the counts are not read as one.** CI's
failure on the prior head reads `546 !== 547`, and this commit's diff reads
267 -> 268. Both are correct and they are not the same tree: at the merge commit
`54b0b197f` the committed list held 546 entries, so the classifier wanted 547.
`4d65c248e` (#4641, "narrow the tier to 28.5%") then landed on `next` at
2026-09-11 17:00 -0400 -- after that CI run started at 13:26Z -- and collapsed
the list to 266, with `a2331c01f` taking it to 267. Hence 268 here. The two
547-entry lists are not the same file set: upstream's includes
`tests/execute-phase-decimal-arithmetic.test.cjs`.

Order matters and is worth stating: the registry is derived from the `tests/`
tree, and the base range removed 282 entries from it and added 3 (`git diff
--numstat` reports `3 282`; the familiar 279 is the net shrinkage, not the count
of entries changed). Regenerating before the rebase would have produced a
547-entry list against a base carrying 267, and a three-way `git merge-file`
control over that pair does conflict. Rebase first, regenerate second.

This clears both reds on the prior head, not one. `lint-tests` is the one the
review named; `test (ubuntu-latest, 24, shard 3/3)` is the same staleness seen
through `tests/platform-conformance-tier.test.cjs:278`, which asserts the
committed list is fresh. It was the only failure in 1267 tests on that shard, and
it completed at 13:38:33Z -- five minutes after the review was submitted at
13:33:54Z, which is why the review recorded the ubuntu matrix as green.

Control: removing the added line reds `real tests/ tree classification matches
the committed list` (1 of 55, `267 !== 268`); restoring it gives 55/55.

* test(#4465): pin what find-phase returns for the workstream archive layout

Review round 4 found the archived-phase handling blind to the second archive
layout, milestones/ws-<name>-<date>/phases/, that `workstream complete` writes.
The suite had no fixture for it and its comments described one archive reader
where there are two.

- Names both readers in the resolver-contract comment: find-phase routes to
  cmdFindPhase, which admits only /^v\d+.*-phases$/ under milestones/, while
  the phase locator (listArchiveVersionDirs) also enumerates ws-*.
- Adds a ws-* fixture built the way `workstream complete` builds it (the whole
  workstream dir moved into milestones/ws-feat-<date>/).
- Negative control: a re-created workstream with the same phase slug, run
  without the collision guard, selects the archived generation's commits.
- Pins the actual find-phase contract: a phase living only in a ws-* archive
  resolves to nothing, and nothing is selected.
- Pins that an ordinary deleted plan file inside a live phase is not treated
  as a previous occupant.

runFences gains an explicit env override so a test can activate a workstream
after the leak scrub. Every test here passes on the pre-fix workflow; the
assertions that need the fix land with it in the next commit.

* fix(#4465): refuse a re-created phase path by its history, not an archive-layout glob

Review round 4: the archived-phase handling encoded the archive layout as a
literal `v[0-9]*-phases` glob, while the phase locator owns two layouts. The
second, milestones/ws-<name>-<date>/phases/, is what `workstream complete`
writes.

Driven on the real fences: a workstream `feat` completed into ws-feat-<date>/
and then re-created with the same 03-auth slug resolves to the live path,
the collision glob finds no v*-phases twin, the anchor opens on the archived
generation's first commit, and --phase 03 selects that generation's commits.

The collision check now asks git whether this exact path went EMPTY somewhere
in HEAD's history and came back: `git log -m --no-renames --diff-filter=D`
over PHASE_DIR, then `git ls-tree -d` at each deleting commit to tell a
vacated directory from an ordinary deleted plan file. That answers for every
way a path can be vacated -- the flat archive, the ws-* archive, and a phase
removed and re-added under the same slug, which no layout glob could see --
without a second reader of the layout to keep in sync. The refusal message
now names the commit that vacated the path.

The archived-resolution refusal names both layouts. find-phase (cmdFindPhase)
searches only the flat archives today, so a ws-*-only phase resolves to
nothing and fails closed on the not-found rule; the ws-* arm keeps the refusal
correct if find-phase is ever taught the locator's second layout, and a
stubbed-resolver test pins it for both modes.

The retired glob's shell-state residual (pathname expansion under set -f /
failglob) is gone with it. Its replacement residual is documented in-workflow:
the history check misses a single commit that both moves the directory away
and re-creates it, and over-refuses when a side branch emptied it and the
merge kept it.

* fix(#4465): run undo's path-scoped git calls from the project root find-phase answers against

Found by this round's pre-push review. find-phase prints PHASE_DIR relative
to the PROJECT ROOT -- gsd-tools resolves the root before it dispatches --
while the workflow's shell stays wherever the user invoked /gsd:undo. A git
pathspec is read relative to git's cwd, so from a subdirectory every
PHASE_DIR-scoped call looked in the wrong place:

- the anchor (`git log --diff-filter=A`) came back empty, so a legitimate
  --phase or --plan undo was refused. Fail-closed, but a refusal of valid
  work, and it dates from round 1;
- the collision check's `git log --diff-filter=D` came back empty, so a
  re-created path was never recognised. The anchor failing too is the only
  reason this did not over-select.

Both modes now take PROJECT_ROOT from `planning inspect --pick
generated_from.cwd` -- the directory find-phase itself resolved against --
and run the three path-scoped calls as `git -C "${PROJECT_ROOT:-.}"`. The
project root, not `git rev-parse --show-toplevel`: a project need not sit at
the top of its repository, and a control test pins that choice. Selection,
revert and rev-parse calls are SHA-only and unchanged.

Tests: every behavioural test ran from the fixture root, where the two
readings coincide. New ones run the fences from sub/dir -- normal selection
in both modes, refusal of a re-created path for both archive layouts in both
modes, and a dropped plan file NOT refused, which is how a mis-rooted
ls-tree would fail (it lists nothing, and nothing reads as "vacated"). Shape
test O pins every PHASE_DIR-scoped git call to the root. The two tests
renamed in the previous commit are relabelled as false-positive controls:
they pass with the collision check deleted, and say so.

Reversion controls, all driven: the pre-change undo.md fails 7 tests; one
mode's ls-tree mis-rooted fails 3 in either mode; PROJECT_ROOT from
--show-toplevel fails 2.

* fix(#4465): refuse a phase planned in another repository, and never widen a foreign anchor

Found by this round's second pre-push review, against the previous commit.
Running the anchor from the project root is right while the project root
and the caller share a repository. In a `sub_repos` project they do not:
.planning/ lives in a parent repository and the code in child ones, and
from a child findProjectRoot returns the parent. The anchor then came from
the PARENT's history -- a commit the child does not hold. `git rev-parse
"${PHASE_START}^"` failed in the child, the root-commit arm read that as
"no parent", set UNDO_RANGE=HEAD, and selection ran over the child's whole
history. Driven: both child commits selected, including one older than the
phase. Before the previous commit that case resolved no anchor and failed
closed; the previous commit made it destructive.

Two layers, both modes:

- a same-repository refusal in the guard fence: the caller's git directory
  and PROJECT_ROOT's, each physically resolved, must be the same one
  (per-worktree, so a linked worktree compares correctly). A different one
  sets PHASE_DIR_FOREIGN, blanks PHASE_DIR, and the workflow stops with a
  --last N pointer;
- in the anchor: a PHASE_START that is not a commit this repository holds is
  blanked before the root-commit arm. That ambiguity -- "no parent" read as
  "root commit" when it can also mean "not a commit here" -- dates from
  round 1; the previous commit made it reachable.

Shape test O now also pins that PROJECT_ROOT is assigned only from planning
inspect: a rooted call is only as good as the root it is handed, and a later
reassignment passed every spelling check (review, claim 8). Shape test P
pins both layers in both modes.

Correction to the previous commit's message: it said an empty anchor was
the only reason a missed collision could not over-select before that
commit. The review drove a counterexample -- a tracked `.planning` path
coinciding with the caller's subdirectory resolves a wrong, non-empty
anchor -- so that sentence overstated it.

Reversion controls, driven: the previous commit's undo.md fails 3 (P, the
sub_repos refusal, defense in depth); the refusal made inert fails 2 (P and
the refusal; the anchor check alone still keeps the range empty); the
anchor check made inert fails 2 (P and defense in depth; the refusal alone
still refuses). A verbatim negative control shows the pre-hardening
root-commit arm widening the parent's anchor to all of HEAD.

* fix(#4465): compare the repository, not the worktree, and anchor only inside HEAD's history

Found by this round's third pre-push review, against the previous commit.
Its repository gate compared per-worktree git directories. gsd-tools maps
a linked worktree with no .planning/ of its own to the MAIN worktree
(resolveMainWorktreeCwd), so from such a worktree PROJECT_ROOT is the main
checkout: one repository, one object database, two per-worktree git dirs
-- and the gate refused a legitimate undo. It now compares the COMMON git
directory, physically resolved, which is the repository's identity; a
sub_repos child is still a different one and is still refused.

Driving that case showed the anchor check was too weak for it. The anchor
comes from the main worktree's branch history, and nothing guaranteed the
linked HEAD contains it: a linked branch that left main before the phase
started would get a window bounded by a commit outside its own history.
The check is now "PHASE_START is an ancestor of HEAD" (`git merge-base
--is-ancestor`), which subsumes the previous "is a commit here" test -- a
missing object is not an ancestor either -- and changes nothing in the
ordinary case, where the anchor is read from HEAD's own log.

Tests: a linked-worktree fixture (the linked checkout has no .planning/,
which is what makes gsd-tools map it to main; the test asserts the mapping
happened) is allowed in both modes and selects the phase; the same shape
branched before the phase resolves no range. Shape test P pins the
common-dir comparison, forbids --absolute-git-dir, and pins the ancestry
check.

Reversion controls, driven: the previous commit's undo.md fails 3 (P and
both linked-worktree tests); per-worktree git dirs restored fails the same
3; the ancestry check replaced by the previous cat-file test fails 2 (P
and the branched-before test, which then selects a linked commit whose
history never held the phase); no anchor check at all fails 3 (P, defense
in depth, the branched-before test).

e2bfc06558 fix(#4709): a retired runtime id must not resolve to Claude Code (#4756)
* fix(#4709): a retired runtime id must not resolve to Claude Code

AC#1 of epic #4709 — the last unmet acceptance criterion. Every other phase
(#4711, #4716, #4732, #4743, #4753) is merged; the epic does not close until
this lands.

THE DEFECT, MEASURED

Five runtime-resolution accessors resolved a RETIRED id to a plausible-looking
value, indistinguishable from the same call with a canonical id. Measured on
5d4c98cde7 by executing the built modules:

  getRuntimeLabel('gemini')              -> 'Claude Code'
  getProjectInstructionFile('gemini')    -> 'AGENTS.md'
  getGlobalConfigHomeFragment('gemini')  -> "'.claude'"
  getGlobalConfigDir('gemini')           -> ~/.claude   (byte-identical to 'claude')
  getDirName('gemini')                   -> '.claude'

So asking for a runtime Google sunset on 2026-06-18 wrote into Claude Code's
global config home and labelled the install "Claude Code". Nothing errored and
nothing warned.

AC#1 names four accessors. getDirName is the fifth, found by a reviewer: same
module, same silent-wrong-answer class, and it feeds capability-state's
runtimeConfigDir. Fixing only the four the criterion happened to list would
have left the defect reachable, so it is guarded too.

WHY THE CHECK CANNOT LIVE IN CANONICALIZATION

canonicalizeRuntimeName returns null for 'gemini', 'gemini-cli', 'Gemini',
'GEMINI' AND for ''. After canonicalization a retired id, an unknown id and an
empty string are the same value, so anything keyed off the canonical form
cannot tell them apart — it would have to treat all three alike, which is the
behaviour being fixed. The check therefore runs on the RAW input.

WHAT THIS DELIBERATELY DOES NOT DO

The criterion reads "reject a non-canonical runtime id". Taken literally that
overturns three recorded decisions, so the narrower reading was put to the
maintainer as a blocking question and this implements the answer: RETIRED ids
throw, unknown and future ids keep falling back.

Preserved:

  - The #1529 contract, written into getProjectInstructionFile's own docblock
    as a mapping table ending "unknown / future runtimes -> AGENTS.md (safe
    cross-agent default)". That default exists so a runtime GSD has never heard
    of still gets a working instruction file.
  - ADR-1239 Phase B / #1679, which preserved GLOBAL_CONFIG_HOME_FRAGMENTS
    BYTE-FOR-BYTE when it collapsed a 14-branch chain, with golden install
    parity asserting generated hook output is unchanged across every runtime.
  - The explicit `if (!runtime) return <default>` branch. Empty string is a
    supported input, not a non-canonical id.

The distinction the code encodes: ABSENCE OF KNOWLEDGE IS NOT THE SAME AS
RECORDED RETIREMENT. Unknown means "no information, degrade safely". Retired
means "we know it is gone and we know what replaced it" — and silently
substituting a different product for it is the defect.

ONE INACCURACY IN THE CRITERION, RECORDED RATHER THAN REPEATED

AC#1 says the accessors return "a Claude Code value". True for getRuntimeLabel,
getGlobalConfigHomeFragment, getGlobalConfigDir and getDirName — but
getProjectInstructionFile returns 'AGENTS.md', which is not a Claude value at
all. The defect it points at is real for all of them, so the fix covers all of
them, but the wording is wrong for one.

MATCHING

RETIRED_RUNTIME_DETAILS is a Map keyed by canonical retired id, and
RETIRED_RUNTIME_SPELLINGS maps every spelling to that id. Both are Maps, not
object literals: a literal indexed by a computed key resolves INHERITED
properties, so '__proto__' and 'constructor' were truthy and threw with every
field `undefined`, while isRetiredRuntimeId — which already went through a Set
— correctly answered false for the same input. Two guards disagreeing about one
id is worse than either answer. A Map has no prototype keys, so that hazard is
structural rather than patched. The predicate and the assertion now share one
normaliser and one table and cannot diverge.

Candidates are normalised NFKC + lowercase + strip non-alphanumerics. Folding
the separators makes 'gemini-cli', 'gemini_cli', 'gemini.cli' and 'geminicli'
one key instead of four near-misses found one at a time, and NFKC folds the
full-width 'gemini' a CJK keyboard produces. It stays MEMBERSHIP matching,
never prefix or substring: 'gemini-2.5-pro' folds to 'gemini25pro' and
'gemini-3.1-pro-preview' to 'gemini31propreview', neither a member, so Google's
live model ids — part of Antigravity's real on-disk contract — are untouched.

Homoglyph folding is deliberately not attempted, and a Cyrillic 'і' would slip
through. These values arrive from argv and env, trusted inputs here, and a
mapping broad enough to catch deliberate homoglyphs would start catching
legitimate ids. Stated rather than left for the next reader to discover.

This over-broad-match trap is the recurring shape of the whole epic: an
exclusion or match written wider than its subject. Four occurrences, each
cited: #4716's `gemini-[0-9]` sweep exclusion hid a stale review.models.gemini
row whose value was "gemini-2.5-pro" on the same line; #4753's first
model-display escape was a blanket /^ \d/ that laundered "Gemini 2.5 CLI as a
supported runtime."; its dialect rule then used a +/-24-character window that
let one legitimate reference license a live claim 21 characters away; and its
model rule treated the ABSENCE of a runtime word as a grant, passing five
unqualified live-runtime claims. Earlier drafts of this message and its
artifacts said "five" in one place and "three" in another with nothing cited;
it is four, listed here, and the artifacts now agree.

THE THROW

RetiredRuntimeError carries `code: 'GSD_RETIRED_RUNTIME'` so a caller can
handle this case without string-matching a message that may be reworded, and
the message names the id, the successor and the retiring issue.
assertNotRetiredRuntime runs as the FIRST statement of each accessor, including
before getGlobalConfigDir's explicitDir branch, so an explicit directory cannot
mask a runtime that is gone.

`gsd-tools query project-instruction-file --runtime gemini` answered the new
throw with a raw stack trace — a user-facing regression this change introduced.
Its sibling routeSkillsRoot already emitted a clean single-line error for an
unknown runtime, so that route now maps GSD_RETIRED_RUNTIME through the same
`error()` helper, and a test asserts the contract directly: non-zero exit,
stderr naming Antigravity and #1928, and no stack frame. It was the only
unwrapped call site in that CLI; I checked the rest rather than assuming.

getRuntimeNewProjectCommand is deliberately NOT guarded: its value does not
vary by runtime in a way that makes a retired id a wrong answer, so throwing
would cost callers a crash without correcting anything. Verified by observing
it return the same value across claude, codex, opencode, kimi, antigravity,
copilot and an unknown id.

RECONCILING THE TESTS THAT PINNED THE DEFECT

The full remote matrix went red with 14 failures, and every one was a
pre-existing test asserting the fallback this criterion calls a defect. One had
already been caught locally by review; the matrix found the other thirteen
across four files. They were reconciled by intent, not blanket-inverted:

  - Tests whose SUBJECT is the retired runtime — "gemini falls back on label /
    config-fragment / new-project surfaces", "gemini no longer maps to
    GEMINI.md (defaults to AGENTS.md)", "gemini is no longer a known runtime —
    falls back to AGENTS.md" — had pinned the defect, titles and all. Their
    assertions are INVERTED rather than deleted, so the history of what the
    behaviour used to be stays attached to the test that pinned it.
  - Tests whose SUBJECT is "an unregistered id falls back generically", with
    gemini merely the SAMPLE, still assert a TRUE property that this change
    deliberately preserved. Those keep their assertion and switch the sample to
    a genuinely unknown id, with a retired-id refusal pinned alongside so both
    halves of the distinction sit together.
  - The project-instruction-file parity loop dropped gemini from its
    parametrised runtimes — both sides now refuse, so there is no value to
    agree on — and gained a dedicated refusal-parity test.

A FIFTEENTH was then found by executing the touched suites locally, in process,
one file at a time — `tests/runtime-name-policy.test.cjs:135` asserted
`getProjectInstructionFile('gemini-cli') === 'AGENTS.md'`, and its own comment
read "gemini-cli was an alias for gemini", which is exactly why that spelling
is now a retired one rather than a merely-unrecognised one. Inverted like the
rest.

Two remote runs on this change were avoidable: the first by reconciling the
tests that pinned the old behaviour before shipping, the second by executing
the touched suites locally first. The matrix is the authority; it is not the
discovery mechanism. Local per-file execution is bounded and cheap and is not
the banned `node --test` fan-out.

All five touched suites now pass in process: runtime-name-policy 47/47,
gemini-runtime-removed 32/32, project-instruction-file-parity 12/12,
runtime-homes-legacy-ids-drift-guard 2/2, install 452/452.

COVERAGE

Failing-first, one per accessor as the criterion demands, each proven RED
against 5d4c98cde7 before the fix existed — the table at the top of this
message IS that baseline, and the exports the tests import did not exist yet
either.

Asserting only the throw would pass if every id threw, which would break every
install, so each property is paired with its opposite: every canonical id still
resolves on all five accessors with byte-identical values; '' keeps its
documented branch; a genuinely unknown id keeps 'Claude Code' / 'AGENTS.md' /
'.claude' / ~/.claude. That last one is the load-bearing negative — it is the
decision the maintainer chose to preserve, so a later patch that "tightens" the
guard to reject all non-canonical ids turns it red with the reason attached.

Boundary coverage maps limit-1/limit/limit+1 onto set membership: 'gemin',
'geminix', 'gemini-2.5-pro' and 'gemini-3.1-pro-preview' must NOT throw, the
retired id and its folded spellings must. '__proto__', 'constructor' and
'  CONSTRUCTOR  ' are pinned as must-not-throw, and predicate/assertion
agreement is asserted directly. Several assert.throws calls initially passed a
string as the second argument, which node treats as the MESSAGE rather than a
matcher, so they asserted nothing about the error; they now use a real
predicate checking the code.

The tests live in the owning modules' suites rather than a new issue-named
file: lint-regression-test-names rejects new bug-NNNN/fix-NNNN/issue-NNNN test
files outright and directs the regression to the owning module's suite.
scripts/lib/macos-conformance-tier.generated.cjs regenerated through its own
--write path, since the tracked test-file count moved.

* test(#4660): pin the letter-axis parity defect across all 6 shell/markdown phase-id sites

Extends tests/nsegment-phase-grammar.test.cjs (#4568) one axis over: for each
of the six sites, reads the live regex off disk and asserts it agrees with
src/phase-id.cts's PHASE_NUMBER_TOKEN_SOURCE on the letter axis in BOTH
directions — accepts `12A` / `3A` / `03A` / `23A.1.2`, still rejects `3a`,
`3AB`, `A3` and the other canonical-invalid shapes — and that the two
extracting sites return the full letter-suffixed token rather than its digit
prefix (or nothing).

Negative control against the unfixed tree: 22 failures, exactly the
"(fails before the fix)" cases; every reject-parity case already green.

* fix(#4660): widen the 6 shell/markdown phase-id mirrors to the canonical grammar's letter axis

Adds `[A-Z]?` after the leading digit run at all six sites #4568 widened —
the ERE translation of src/phase-id.cts's `\d+[A-Z]?(?:\.\d+)*` — so a
documented, canonical-valid id like `12A` or `23A.1.2` is no longer refused
by the four validating sites (code-review.md, code-review-fix.md,
gsd-code-fixer.md, gsd-code-fixer.compact.md) or truncated to its digit
prefix by the two extracting sites (execute-plan.md's plan-filename grep,
plan-phase.md's --research-phase capture). Behaviour is byte-identical for
every id that matched before; the adjacent comment and error-message text
now names the grammar it mirrors.

Driven: `init code-review 3A` on a fixture with a `03A-slug/` directory and
a `### Phase 3A:` heading emits `padded_phase: "03A"`, which the old regex
rejects and the widened one accepts — nothing upstream of the validator
mangles the id.

At execute-plan.md the trailing `-[0-9]+` is the PLAN number and stays
digit-only; plan and milestone dimensions are out of scope per the brief.
`CASE_FLEXIBLE_PHASE_NUMBER_TOKEN_SOURCE` derives from the canonical source
by a literal `.replaceAll('A-Z', 'A-Za-z')`, so src/phase-id.cts is
deliberately untouched.

* chore(#4634): extend lint-phase-id-drift to ban a letter-less phase-id mirror in workflows/ and agents/

Adds findLetterlessPhaseMirrorDrift — the letter-axis twin of the #4568
single-segment rule — flagging the unbounded-segment shape
`[0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)*` (and its \d / doubled-backslash near-variants) whose
digit run is NOT followed by the `[A-Z]?` class, on any phase-carrying line
across gsd-core/workflows/**/*.md, gsd-core/references/**/*.md and
agents/**/*.md. Sanctioned the same way (`<!-- phase-id-owner: ... -->`),
tolerates the case-flexible `[A-Za-z]?` directory-scanning variant so it
cannot force that separate axis to narrow, and is wired into scanAll.
Confirmed zero violations against the real tree post-#4660 fix, and one
violation when a single site is reverted.

06845717fe feat(#4740): make the Loop Host Contract role partition normative and enforced (#4742)
* test(#4740): pin the per-step role-family partition

Failing-first coverage for the Loop Host Contract role partition. At this
commit crossCheckRoleFamilies does not exist, so the rows throw
"crossCheckRoleFamilies is not a function" -- the RED proof they bind to
behavior rather than restating it.

ADR-894 section 3 assigns roles per step but parenthesises the assignment as
"(illustrative roles)", and nothing enforced it. The only thing standing in the
way was a single deepEqual in this same file, which is editable prose.

Rows cover: each step's own family accepted; a strict subset accepted; a
foreign role rejected at every step; an unknown role rejected; an unknown step
failing CLOSED; capitalization not silently matched; every offending role
reported rather than only the first; and purity, because buildContract puts the
same array into the generated contract.

Two rows exist because an earlier cut of this suite was vacuous. The purity
fixture is deliberately UNSORTED -- an alphabetically-sorted fixture cannot
fail an in-place sort(), and the mutant was being killed by three unrelated
rows instead. A parity row asserts ROLE_FAMILY and ROLE_TO_AGENT cover the
exact same role-name domain, both directions: they are parallel constants over
one domain, so divergence is the generative-fix class CLAUDE.md names.

Every negative row asserts the offending ROLE NAME and the STEP NAME appear in
the message. A count-only assertion survives a mutant that reports the wrong
role, which the 80% Stryker gate would surface only after a full CI round-trip.

* feat(#4740): reject a cross-family agent-role declaration

Orchestration and execution are distinct functions of the loop and must not
drift into one another. That partition was real but unenforced: ADR-894
section 3 calls its own role assignment "illustrative", and the generator
accepted anything. Adding orchestrator to execute-phase.md's agent-roles line
compiled, --check passed once regenerated, and capability-validator.cjs then
began accepting into:"orchestrator" at every execute point.

ROLE_FAMILY maps every role to one of orchestration, planning or execution.
EXPECTED_FAMILY_BY_STEP gives each of the five steps exactly one family.
crossCheckRoleFamilies rejects a cross-family role, a role outside the
vocabulary, and an unknown step. It reports every offender, not the first.

It fails CLOSED on an unknown step, deliberately diverging from
assertPointsCoverage's "unknown step -- caught elsewhere". For points that is
true: the canonical-set and duplicate checks catch it. For roles there is no
second net, so failing open would leave an unknown step as the one input that
bypasses the gate.

crossCheckRoles' orchestrator exemption is untouched. ROLE_TO_AGENT maps roles
to agent FILES and the orchestrator is the host, owning none -- admissibility
and agent-file presence are separate concerns with separate checks.

Additive to section 3's existing rule that contribution.into must be a member
of the step's agentRoles, which is unchanged. That governs what a CAPABILITY
may target; this governs what a WORKFLOW may declare. No capability is
affected, and all five workflows already declare single-family sets, so the
gate is green on the commit that introduces it.

* docs(#4740): make the ADR-894 role assignment normative

Section 3 parenthesises its per-step role assignment as "(illustrative roles)".
That word was accurate about the list's PURPOSE -- it illustrated the shape of
a generated contract entry -- and wrong about its STATUS, because the
assignment was load-bearing from the moment the generator consumed it. Read
literally it makes the partition an example rather than a rule.

Appended as a dated in-place section per docs/contributor-standards.md, which
records that an accepted ADR is never rewritten and names this the default
pattern. Section 3's original body is untouched.

The amendment states the three disjoint families, the one family each step
admits, that a step may declare a strict subset but never outside it, and why
this is a clarification rather than a new decision: the contract is generated
from the workflow markers "so it cannot drift into a lie", and all five
workflows have always declared single-family sets. What was absent was any
statement that it is required, and any check that it holds.

It also pins the distinction that is easy to re-merge: contribution.into being
a member of agentRoles governs what a CAPABILITY may target and is unchanged;
the family rule governs what a WORKFLOW may declare. The CONTEXT.md glossary
entry for the Loop Host Contract records the same, beside the agent-reference
drift guard it already documented.

* fix(#4740): stop injecting the orchestrator procedure into executors

claude-orchestration declared a contribution at execute:wave:pre with
into:"executor". loop-hook-dispatch.md defines a contribution as "inject
fragment.inline verbatim into the context for the role named in into", so its
267 lines were injected into EXECUTOR prompts whenever the capability was
enabled. Those lines are orchestration end to end -- construct a wave manifest,
resolve the dispatch backend, invoke the Workflow tool to spawn executors,
bridge per-agent results into the merge chain. An executor can act on none of
it.

Retargeting to into:"orchestrator" would not have been a fix. ROLE_TO_AGENT
carries no orchestrator entry by design: the orchestrator IS the host, and the
host's procedure lives in execute-phase.md. A step's agentRoles enumerates
agents a capability may inject context INTO, so adding orchestrator there would
model the host as an injectable agent -- the same category error pointed the
other way, and it would need an exception carved into the partition the same
issue just made normative.

So the defect is the mechanism, not the label. A contribution injects into an
agent's context; "replace step 3's inline dispatch loop" is a change to what
the HOST does. The contribution channel was serving as a host-behaviour
directive because it was the only channel available at an execute point.

The entry is removed. plan:post into:"planner" is correct and untouched. The
procedure is preserved verbatim at docs/workflow-backend-dispatch.md inside the
capability -- it is the only copy in the repo -- and is no longer injected
anywhere.

Consequence, not softened: the Workflow backend now has no loop wiring.
Detection, emission and config remain and the design is intact, but nothing
dispatches it. Under the separation ADR-1143 itself asserts it never had a
legitimate channel; ADR-1143's own audit already records the end-to-end path
has never been exercised. Wiring it properly needs a host-level mechanism that
does not exist today.

* fix(#4740): invert the stale execute:wave:pre registry assertions

Removing the contribution left four surfaces asserting or describing the old
state. Caught by an isolated review before a verification run was spent, which
is the point of reviewing first: the first of these was a guaranteed CI red.

execute-wave-post-gate-pipeline-e2e asserted against the REAL generated
registry that byLoopPoint['execute:wave:pre'] held exactly one contribution
with capId claude-orchestration. It now holds zero. Inverted to assert exactly
0 -- not a vague >= 0 -- and the #2285 comment above it now explains the
current state rather than the one it was written for.

CONTEXT.md's Claude Orchestration entry claimed two contributions at wired
points. It is now one, and the entry's execute:wave:post label was already
wrong before this change: the manifest said execute:wave:pre. Rewritten to one
plan:post contribution, why the execute-point one was removed, and where the
procedure now lives.

One assertion in claude-orchestration.test.cjs could not fail. It tested for
the prose "(into the executor)" while the doc says "(`into: executor`)", so no
plausible wording matched it and the paired plan:post assertion was carrying
the row. Replaced with a check on the structural claim, and proved RED by
restoring the two-contribution wording before reverting.

The moved procedure keeps section headings that speak as a live contribution --
"When this contribution is active", "Why execute:wave:pre". Preserving the body
verbatim was deliberate, so the headings stay and an editor's note under the
header explains why they read that way.

A sweep of all 17 files referencing byLoopPoint found no further siblings: the
remaining hits are a synthetic capability fixture and an empty-points test that
already expected no active hooks, both correct before and after.

eb49ff98df fix(#4728): stop presenting the retired Gemini CLI as a supported runtime (#4743)
* fix(#4728): stop presenting the retired Gemini CLI as a supported runtime

#1928 removed the Gemini CLI runtime after Google sunset it on 2026-06-18, and
updated the ENGLISH docs. The locale mirrors and the runtime-loaded workflow
prose were not updated in the same change, and no gate asserts the ABSENCE of a
retired runtime, so both drifted quietly for a year.

The finding that shaped this change: English is already correct. docs/
ARCHITECTURE.md, CONFIGURATION.md, USER-GUIDE.md, how-to/install-on-your-runtime.md
and CLI-TOOLS.md carry zero runtime-axis Gemini references; the only English hits
anywhere are a Gemini 2.5 Pro MODEL line, the GEMINI_API_KEY row, and prose that
correctly documents the retirement. So the docs half of this is translation lag,
not a content decision, and every locale edit here is parity with an existing
English line rather than new wording:

  - install-on-your-runtime.md  English has NO `### Gemini CLI` section  -> deleted
  - USER-GUIDE.md :843          "…, Antigravity CLI, Kilo)"              -> substituted
  - ARCHITECTURE.md             English has NO Gemini CLI table row      -> row deleted
  - ARCHITECTURE.md :24         English holds `Kimi CLI` in that slot    -> Kimi CLI
  - context-monitor.md :3       "`AfterTool` for Antigravity CLI"        -> substituted
  - spike-and-sketch.md :93     "(Codex, Antigravity CLI, etc.)"         -> substituted
  - configure-model-profiles    "Codex, OpenCode, Antigravity CLI, or Kilo" -> substituted
  - COMMANDS.md                 English keeps only hyphen + Codex bullets -> colon bullet deleted
  - FEATURES.md                 source docs/features/multi-runtime-support.md:10
                                lists no Gemini CLI                       -> name removed

ARCHITECTURE.md:24 is the clearest case for reading English rather than
substituting blind: Antigravity ALREADY appears later in that list, so replacing
Gemini CLI with Antigravity would have named it twice. English holds Kimi CLI
there, so that is what the locales get.

The largest single class was hand-duplicated boilerplate. A "Text mode" paragraph
repeated across 34 runtime-loaded workflow files ends "…required for non-Claude
runtimes (OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, etc.)". No lint enforces that sentence and no
script syncs it, so every copy was edited. These files are read by the agent at
runtime, so they steer behavior rather than only informing a reader — which is why
this class matters more than its word count suggests.

The slash-command-form section is restructured in all four languages to match
English, which had already dropped its colon-form bullet. That bullet claimed the
colon form is "Gemini CLI only", which was false on its own terms independent of
the retirement: `/gsd:…` is GSD's canonical AUTHORING token, rewritten per runtime
at install time, and NO runtime registers it — VALID_COMMAND_STYLES is
{slash-hyphen, shell-var} and 18 of 19 runtimes declare slash-hyphen. Substituting
the runtime name would have left the claim false with Antigravity's name in it, so
the claim is gone, matching English.

Two anchor regressions were caught and fixed while doing that. zh-CN lost its
explicit {#slash-command-forms-hyphen-vs-colon} anchor while its TOC still linked
it; the anchor is restored. ko-KR and pt-BR never had an explicit anchor and rely
on the slug generated from the heading text, so shortening the heading broke their
own TOC links; those links now point at the new slugs. English's heading lost its
anchor while its TOC still links the old one — that latent English bug is
deliberately NOT copied.

Preserved, because `gemini` is not one thing here and a blanket sweep breaks the
product: ~/.gemini/antigravity{,-ide,-cli} and ~/.gemini as their parent;
~/.gemini/config (#3738); GEMINI.md; hookEvents "gemini"; GEMINI_API_KEY in all
four locales; every gemini-* model id and the Gemini 2.5 Pro references in
ko-KR/pt-BR/zh-CN (ja-JP genuinely lacks that line — the locales have diverged, so
a uniform patch would be wrong); the hook-event dialect notes, which are
RE-ATTRIBUTED rather than deleted because Antigravity inherits that dialect;
reapply-patches.md:93's legacy-install note; host-integration-capability-matrix.md
:27 and :342, which correctly record the sunset and Antigravity's contract;
whats-new-1.7.0.md and FEATURES.md:3506, which document the retirement itself; and
the generated launcher preamble, which belongs to epic #4632 — zero
_GSD_SHIM_NAME lines appear in this diff.

Coverage: a #4728 block in tests/gemini-runtime-removed.test.cjs asserts the
retired name is gone from STRUCTURAL POSITIONS (a level-3 heading, a table row's
first cell, a runtime-example parenthetical) rather than asserting the string is
absent, which would be wrong. It pairs those with positive PRESERVE assertions
over the same files — Antigravity's heading, ~/.gemini/antigravity, GEMINI_API_KEY,
AfterTool — so a patch that deletes too much fails as loudly as one that deletes
too little. The model-axis test pins both the presence in three locales and the
absence in ja-JP, so a later uniform patch that "helpfully" adds it back fails.
The new docs/ reads tripped lint-docs-guard-registration for the first time in
this file, so the test is registered in scripts/docs-guard-registry.cjs.

Not covered here, by design: nothing above would catch a Gemini-as-runtime
reference appearing in a NEW file tomorrow. That is the repo-wide drift guard,
#4729, which must land last — written now it would red on the very references this
change removes.

Fixes #4728

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

* fix(#4728): fix four review blockers, including a vacuous test and my own duplicate

A full matrix run on 31f12d7943 FAILED with 3 real failures, and an isolated
adversarial review returned BLOCK on four blockers. All of it was correct.

1. I committed the exact error I claimed to have avoided. The commit message
   boasted that ARCHITECTURE.md:24 proved the value of reading English rather
   than substituting blind, because Antigravity already appeared later in that
   list. Five hundred lines further down the SAME four files, my
   `Gemini:` -> `Antigravity:` substitution produced TWO consecutive
   `- Antigravity:` bullets, because an Antigravity bullet was already there.
   English (ARCHITECTURE.md:827) merges them into one. Now merged in all four
   locales, reusing each locale's existing words.

2. `--gemini` survived in the runtime-detection CLI flag list in all four
   locale ARCHITECTURE.md files. English:817 holds `--kimi` in that slot and
   already lists `--antigravity` later, so this is another place where
   substituting Antigravity would have duplicated it. Now `--kimi`.

3. Two runtime-loaded workflow files still enumerated Gemini one line ABOVE the
   line I had already corrected -- the "Adaptive (Recommended)" option in
   settings.md:192 and new-project/steps/auto-mode-config.md:95.

4. THE NEW TEST WAS VACUOUS for two of its five files. It matched only
   `non-Claude runtimes (` and `(e.g. `, and neither regex could reach the two
   lines the change actually fixed: health.md:52 reads `non-Claude (Codex, ...)`
   without the word "runtimes", and execute-phase.md:1028 has no parenthetical
   at all. The reviewer proved it by re-introducing Gemini at both lines and
   watching the assertion stay GREEN. That same blind spot is what hid finding 3.

   Replaced with a case-sensitive `/\bGemini\b/` walk over every
   `gsd-core/workflows/**/*.md`, which works because every LEGITIMATE gemini
   reference in that tree is spelled differently and cannot match: Antigravity's
   paths are lowercase with a slash (`~/.gemini/antigravity`), Google's model ids
   are lowercase and hyphenated (`gemini-3.1-pro-preview`), and the env vars are
   uppercase (`GEMINI_CONFIG_DIR`, `GEMINI_SESSION_ID`). A bare capitalised
   `Gemini` there means the retired RUNTIME is being named. The walk asserts it
   found at least 50 files so an empty walk cannot pass vacuously, and it now
   covers the nested `new-project/steps/` directory where finding 3 lived.

   Two allowlist entries, both by line CONTENT and both justified:
   reapply-patches.md's `Legacy: ... pre-#1928` note, and settings-advanced.md's
   `Known provider` menu. The second was escalated by the agent rather than
   decided: Section 8 of that file says model policy is defined "independently"
   of the runtime, so `(Claude / OpenAI / Gemini / Qwen)` is the PROVIDER axis --
   the same axis as the lowercase model ids -- and must keep working.

   Proven to fail, not just asserted: the predicate reports 0 offenders on the
   real tree and exactly 2 on a /tmp copy with Gemini re-injected at
   health.md:52 and execute-phase.md:1028.

Also from the review: a `| Gemini |` COLUMN survived in the locale FEATURES.md
comparison tables (English has none) -- removed from all three, with header,
separator and every body row kept aligned; two ENGLISH runtime-axis sites were
missed by my own parity standard (how-to/execute-a-phase.md:88 and
how-to/verify-and-ship.md:89, the latter doubly stale since #4716 retired the
Gemini reviewer lane); docs/USER-GUIDE.md:12 linked a dead anchor, which I had
found and deliberately left -- record-and-proceed on a known defect is exactly
what the rules forbid, so it is fixed; docs/COMMANDS.md:12 and all four mirrors
still claimed "the hyphen and colon forms are runtime-specific spellings" with
no colon form documented anywhere, so that false sentence is deleted; and ko-KR
had the installer rather than the user doing the targeting.

The other two matrix failures were the compact-content benchmark baseline, which
drifted because this PR changes byte counts, refreshed via the script's own
`--write` path rather than by hand; and this commit's emitted-drift-ack trailers.

Method note on the acks: the failing run measured growth against
origin/next@1110c3b4ee, which is the STALE LOCAL `next` ref -- gsd-test merges
into the local base branch, and this machine's `next` is seven commits behind
origin/next, which is checked out in the main worktree and so cannot be
fast-forwarded from here. The 32 trailers below are computed against the REAL
base (origin/next @ ca8d9d4459) by comparing each tracked file's blob size, which
is one more file than that run reported -- the extra is settings.md, grown again
by fix 3. docs-update.md and map-codebase.md are deliberately NOT acked: they
SHRANK, since there the fix deleted ", Gemini CLI" rather than substituting, and
acking a file no delta consumed is itself an error.

The PR body claimed one was present and it was not — caught by
scripts/changeset/lint.cjs reporting fail_missing_fragment, not by the
checklist, which is exactly why the lint exists.

Type Fixed: the diff is prose, and a docs-only fix uses Fixed since there is
no Documentation type.

b54c1c5848 fix(#4709): retire the Gemini CLI reviewer lane (#4716)
* fix(#4709): retire the Gemini CLI reviewer lane

Google stopped serving Gemini CLI for the free/Pro/Ultra tiers on 2026-06-18 —
the same sunset that removed the gemini RUNTIME in #1928 (shipped 1.8.0). GSD
targets solo developers, so those tiers ARE the user path: the lane spawned
`gemini {{model}} -p -`, a binary that no longer answers for the majority of
users, and five locales documented it as a supported choice.

The lane was re-created after #1928 by the reviewer-lane-as-manifest-data work
(6a9babda69, #2798/#2837, ADR-2782). Per the maintainer that re-creation was an
error in that buildout rather than a considered decision, so this corrects a
mistake and needs no ADR-2782 amendment.

Reviewer roster: 12 lanes / 13 flags -> 11 lanes / 12 flags.

TWO sources of truth had to be removed, not one. Deleting
capabilities/gemini/capability.json left the capability registry at 11 lanes
while src/review-lane-descriptor.cts's hand-maintained REVIEWER_LANES array
still carried its own complete gemini entry at 12 — precisely the disagreement
checkReviewerLaneParity exists to catch. Both are gone; both parity checkers
now run clean against the real tree (lane parity ok/0 violations, docs parity
0 violations).

Surfaces stripped of the dead flag:
- capabilities/gemini/ deleted; registry and capability-matrix regenerated
- src/review-lane-descriptor.cts: REVIEWER_LANES entry, docblock count, and the
  three doc comments that used --gemini as a live example
- commands/gsd/{review,plan-review-convergence,autonomous,progress}.md and the
  four matching skills/*/SKILL.md: argument-hint frontmatter and flag bullets
- gsd-core/workflows/help/modes/{full,full.compact}.md: /gsd-help signatures,
  the detected-CLI list, and the reviewer-title list
- gsd-core/workflows/settings-integrations.md: the integrations wizard no longer
  offers "Gemini" as a model option, and the settable-keys list drops it
- gsd-core/workflows/review.md: the `command -v gemini` probe, the --gemini
  flag, the roster frontmatter, the install pointer to the sunset repo, and the
  jq-less / precedence / self-skip lane lists
- gsd-core/workflows/sync-skills.md: "two runtimes (grok, gemini) resolve to
  ANOTHER runtime's skills root" is now one runtime; gemini never aliased
  anything, it fell through canonicalizeRuntimeName to a fail-closed default
- docs/{CONFIGURATION,COMMANDS,CLI-TOOLS}.md, docs/reference/capability-matrix.md,
  docs/how-to/set-up-cross-ai-review.md — including its `npm install -g
  @google/gemini-cli` instruction and the two rows recommending --gemini
- docs/features/{cross-ai-peer-review,opt-in-parallel-reviewer-lanes}.md as the
  generator inputs behind docs/FEATURES.md, plus the three locale FEATURES.md
  signature lines the docs-parity gate covers (the #2781 class: a flag change
  that never reaches the mirrors)

Counts reconciled against measurement rather than arithmetic: 8 timeout keys of
11 lanes, 11 budget keys, 9 model keys, and four hardcoded literals in
tests/reviewer-lane-declarations.test.cjs (NEW_LANE_ONLY_IDS 5->4, LITERAL_ROSTER
12->11, two roster counts 12->11).

BEHAVIOR CHANGE, accepted deliberately: `gsd config-set review.models.gemini`
now errors with "Unknown config key". An existing key already in
.planning/config.json still parses and is simply never read, so no project fails
to load. This is the repo's own documented policy for exactly this case
(docs/CONFIGURATION.md:327 — "a key left over from a removed reviewer validated
silently and was never read. Such a key is now rejected by config-set"), so no
installer migration ships. Note my first measurement of this was WRONG: I tested
config-get, which reads undeclared keys fine, and generalised. Read and write are
different surfaces and gave different answers.

Antigravity is untouched throughout — its --antigravity/--agy flags,
review.models.agy, ~/.gemini/antigravity configHome, ~/.gemini/config global
skills root (#3738), hookEvents "gemini", GEMINI.md instruction file, and every
gemini-* model id it actually runs on.

* fix(#4709): close the 24 test failures and the locale-doc gap the gates found

An adversarial review and a full matrix run between them found substantially
more fallout than inspection had. All of it is this PR's own, and all of it is
fixed rather than waved off.

THE MATRIX RUN FOUND 24 FAILURES ACROSS 6 FILES. Inspection had predicted two.
The dominant class was a test helper that looks up a lane by slug and throws
`no declared lane 'gemini'`:

- tests/feat-2483-review-claude-mds-guard.test.cjs (6) — used gemini as the
  "other declared first-party lane" to contrast against claude's env
  suppression. Now qwen, verified from source as a lane that declares no `env`
  (only claude does), so the contrast still holds.
- tests/review-lane-descriptor.test.cjs (6) — the duplicate-flag and
  duplicate-section fixtures deliberately COLLIDED with a real declared lane to
  prove the parity checker reports a duplicate. `--gemini`/`Gemini` no longer
  collide with anything, so the checker reported
  `descriptor_lane_not_in_registry:acme` instead and the tests proved nothing.
  Now collide with `--codex`/`Codex`, reproduced against the real checker.
- tests/review-reviewer-selection.test.cjs (3) — these distinguish KNOWN-but-
  undetected from UNKNOWN. gemini flipped categories, inverting what they
  proved. The known case now uses qwen; `__nope__` stays the unknown fixture.
- tests/review-default-reviewers-resolution.test.cjs (2), and
  tests/settings-integrations.test.cjs (3) — the wizard now offers three
  reviewer CLIs, not four, so the test and its name say three.
- Two count assertions the earlier sweep missed outright:
  reviewer-lane-declarations.test.cjs:359 (`length, 12`) and
  reviewer-docs-parity.test.cjs:681 (`>= 12`).

THE LOCALE-DOC GAP, and why the parity gate stayed green over it. All four
locale mirrors still documented `--gemini` as a live reviewer flag. The
docs-parity checker asserts the PRESENCE of every current flag and never the
ABSENCE of a retired one, so "0 violations" was never evidence those files were
clean — my earlier reading of it as such was wrong. This is the #2781
locale-drift class in the opposite direction. Fixed across 12 locale files:
COMMANDS.md flag lists and table rows, CONFIGURATION.md `review.models.gemini`
rows and reviewer prose, CLI-TOOLS.md config examples, and
set-up-cross-ai-review.md including its install block and its
which-reviewer-to-choose row, which now recommends Antigravity.

ALSO FOUND, and instructive about my own method: docs/CONFIGURATION.md:297 still
carried a `review.models.gemini` row. My sweep had missed it because my grep
excluded lines matching `gemini-[0-9]` to spare Google's model ids — and that
row's example value is `"gemini-2.5-pro"` on the same line. The exclusion built
to avoid false positives created a false negative.

Remaining comment/example sites: src/review-reviewer-selection.cts:309 and
src/config.cts:598 named the dead flag and key as examples;
gsd-core/references/planning-config.md:269 likewise; and
review-reviewer-selection.cts:22 claimed in the PRESENT tense that gemini is a
lane-only reviewer capability. Line 38 of that same docblock says "Before this
phase the five non-runtime reviewers (gemini, ...)" and is left exactly as is —
that is past-tense history, and rewriting it would falsify the record.

Deliberately still deferred to Phase 4, because it is the RUNTIME axis rather
than the reviewer lane: the locale install-on-your-runtime.md `--gemini --global`
instructions, the USER-GUIDE colon-form notes, and the ARCHITECTURE
runtime-detection flag lists.

Both parity checkers green against the real tree; lint:ci exit 0.

6f99e493e7 fix(#4395): make the debug session manager's own gsd-debugger spawn blocking (#4718)
* test(#4395): prove the manager spawns its debugger without blocking

Failing-first regression coverage for #4395.

debug.md:209 mandates the orchestrator to session-manager spawn carry
run_in_background: false, and says why outright: "Claude Code backgrounds
subagents by default, and only that flag makes the spawn return the
compact session summary directly" (#2196).

The session-manager to debugger spawn, one level down, carries no flag.
Measured: run_in_background appears nowhere under agents/ -- only in
gsd-core/workflows/. So by the rule #2196 itself states, that spawn is
backgrounded, Step 3 ("Handle Agent Return") has no return to inspect,
the manager emits CONTINUE_REQUIRED, the orchestrator auto-resumes per
#2257/#3448, and a second detached debugger races the first on
.planning/debug/<slug>.md.

Row 4 is the load-bearing one: it closes the CLASS by requiring every
subagent spawn under agents/ to declare run_in_background explicitly, so
the next agent that spawns one has to decide rather than inherit a silent
host default. It is scoped to agents/ precisely so it cannot misfire on
the workflows that deliberately use true for parallel fan-out.

Rows 5-7 are pins, not fixes: the #2196 mandate one level up, Step 2 as
the single spawn-format source that the eight continuation sites delegate
to, and the survival of CONTINUE_REQUIRED (which has a legitimate trigger
unrelated to this defect).

Red round: 4 of 7 rows fail. Row 3 needed hardening first -- asserting
only that the two variants AGREE passed vacuously, because two missing
flags are also equal; it now asserts each is present before comparing.

* fix(#4395): make the manager's own debugger spawn blocking

The orchestrator-to-manager hop already requires a blocking spawn and says
why (#2196, debug.md:209): Claude Code backgrounds subagents by default,
and only run_in_background=false makes the spawn return its summary. The
manager-to-debugger hop, one level down, carried no flag -- measured,
run_in_background appeared nowhere under agents/ at all.

So that spawn was backgrounded. Step 3 ("Handle Agent Return") opens
"Inspect the return output for the structured return header" -- with
nothing to inspect, the manager correctly declined to fabricate a terminal
summary and returned CONTINUE_REQUIRED; the orchestrator correctly
auto-resumed (#2257/#3448); the resumed manager reached Step 2 and spawned
a SECOND detached debugger. Both then raced on .planning/debug/<slug>.md.

Every observable in the report follows with no further assumption,
including the count: the reporter saw exactly three collisions in one
invocation, and debug.md:251 caps auto-resumes at three per slug -- one
collision per cycle.

Fixed at the cause, in both shipped variants, kept byte-consistent. The
eight continuation sites say "see Step 2 format", so they inherit it.

The issue offered two remedies. The second -- have the auto-resume path
reconcile a still-running debugger before spawning another -- is not taken:
it treats the symptom, and needs machinery that does not exist (no portable
way to enumerate or stop another runtime's live agents, plus an in-flight
sentinel with staleness and recovery rules, or an orphaned marker deadlocks
the session permanently). With the spawn blocking, the manager cannot reach
Step 4 while a debugger is live, so such a guard would also be unreachable.

#2257, #3448, the anti-loop heuristic, the cap of three, and the
CONTINUE_REQUIRED shape are all correct and untouched. CONTINUE_REQUIRED
keeps its legitimate trigger: the manager genuinely exhausting its own turn
budget mid-investigation.

Also corrects the red-round test to the canonical CALL form. debug.md
writes run_in_background=false inside Agent(...) and run_in_background:
false in prose; the first draft asserted the prose form, which the shipped
call would never have matched.

* chore(#4395): refresh the variant benchmark baseline

Two entries move.

gsd-debug-session-manager.md 4766/4477 -> 4938/4649 is this change: the
blocking-spawn flag plus its explanatory note, added to BOTH variants to
keep them byte-consistent, so the compact sibling grows by the same amount
and the pair's reduction ratio dips 6.06 -> 5.85. The compact file remains
strictly smaller than its canonical sibling, which is what the variant
guard's size check actually requires.

gsd-code-fixer.md 10741 -> 10740 is NOT from this branch -- the file is
untouched here. It has scored 10740 since f334f277dd (#4324) reworded a
line without refreshing this fixture, so the stale number is sitting on
next. Fixed here rather than deferred; the #4350 branch carries the
identical one-token correction, so whichever lands first makes the other a
no-op.

Refreshed with the variant script's own --write.

* fix(#4395): state the blocking rule agent-wide and correct two overclaims

Review round. Three substantive corrections, one of them to a claim I made
in the previous commit message.

1. The blocking rule is now stated AGENT-WIDE, not per-call. My earlier
   claim that "the eight continuation sites say 'see Step 2 format', so
   they inherit it" was false: exactly ONE of them names Step 2 (the
   compact variant says "Step 2 format" without the "see", which is why
   the first draft of the test matched it zero times there). The other
   sites inherit only because Step 2 holds the sole Agent() spawn literal
   in each file. Both variants now say so outright, and the test pins the
   sole-literal invariant in BOTH variants rather than the prose wording
   in one.

2. debug.md's two auto-resume buckets now restate run_in_background=false
   for the re-spawn. "The same session_params" does not carry it --
   session_params is prompt content, not the spawn flag.

3. The test extractor now also matches single-line Agent(...) calls. The
   class guard was blind to exactly the shape a future offender is most
   likely to take.

Also corrects the diagnosis: remedy 2 is NOT unreachable once the spawn
blocks. This agent's own retained CONTINUE_REQUIRED trigger is "turn
budget exhausted WHILE THE DEBUGGER IS STILL INVESTIGATING", so a harness
turn cutoff mid-wait still double-spawns; debug.md:209 names the same
class from the other side. What this fix removes is the SYSTEMATIC case --
every invocation, because the spawn was always backgrounded. The residual
turn-cutoff window survives, bounded by the existing three-resume cap, and
is stated in the PR rather than denied.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-debug-session-manager.md — blocking spawn flag, the note recording why an unstated flag produced colliding debuggers, and the agent-wide restatement the per-site inheritance actually depends on
Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-debug-session-manager.compact.md — same change as its full sibling, kept byte-consistent with it

ed819aa4d6 fix(#4379): make the TDD RED-commit pathspec language-agnostic (#4715)
* fix(#4379): make the TDD RED pathspec language-agnostic

The pathspec IS this gate's definition of "a test file", and it listed
only JS/TS conventions. Go's *_test.go matches none of them, so a commit
adding a failing Go test was invisible, RED_COMMIT came back empty, and
every behaviour-adding task halted with TDD GATE TRIPPED. references/tdd.md
already advertises `go test ./...` and `cargo test` as supported, so the
gate was refusing to see tests the docs promised to support.

Two corrections, both measured against a seeded repo rather than reasoned:

- cover the conventions tdd.md advertises: *_test.go, test_*.py,
  *_test.py, *_test.exs, *_spec.rb, *_test.rb.
- drop the `**/` prefix. It does NOT match a path with no directory
  component, so a root-level foo.test.js was invisible even in the
  language the gate did support -- a second defect the report did not
  mention. A bare glob matches at every depth.

Deliberately not widened to ordinary source: a pathspec matching
implementation files would make the gate pass on any in-scope commit,
which is worse than tripping wrongly. Rust is a known gap for that exact
reason and is now documented rather than silently broken.

Driving the shipped pathspec against a seeded repo: before, 0 of 7
language/root conventions matched; after, 7 of 7, with src/impl.go and
src/lib.rs correctly unmatched in both.

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

* test(#4379): drive the shipped RED pathspec against a real repo

The existing row pinned the pathspec as a literal string, which the fix
makes stale. Re-point it, and add behavioural coverage that EXTRACTS the
pathspec from the shipped workflow and runs git log with it against a
seeded repo -- re-typing the pattern into the test would only assert that
two copies of a string agree.

Rows: every advertised convention is visible; a root-level test file is
not invisible (the half the report missed); existing JS/TS still matches;
implementation files never match, so the gate can still trip; and Rust
inline #[test] stays out of reach, asserted rather than left silent.

* chore(#4379): add changeset fragment

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

* fix(#4379): be honest about the widened pathspec's cost

Adversarial review: the rationale comment claimed the change was safe
without naming what it gives up. `*.spec.*` can match a non-test file
carrying the word (api.spec.json, openapi.spec.yaml), which lets the gate
pass on a commit touching only that. Not new -- `**/*.spec.*` already
matched those at any nested path, so dropping `**/` extends the same
class to the root -- but the comment should say so rather than imply
the widening is free.

Also: the tdd.md list named Ruby and Elixir as recognised while the
detection step above it enumerates only Node/Python/Go/Rust. Say
explicitly that the gate's pathspec is wider than the detected project
types, and why that is deliberate.

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

* test(#4379): drop a vacuous row, fold its point into a real one

Adversarial review: the "rust inline #[test] remains out of reach" row
asserted src/lib.rs never matches -- the identical assertion to the
"implementation files never match" row directly below it. It exercised
nothing about #[test] semantics and would have passed against almost any
fix, so it was coverage theatre.

Delete it and move its rationale into the row that already carries the
assertion, where it explains WHY the Rust gap follows from that row
holding: the two cannot both be satisfied by a path-based gate.

* fix(#4379): move the pathspec rationale out of a size-capped file

execute-phase.md sits under a FROZEN byte ceiling (ADR-857 Phase 6,
#1168: < 93600). The 20-line rationale comment I added pushed it to
93933 and tripped seven tests, all the same ceiling. Base was 92371, so
the budget was 1229 bytes and the comment spent 1481.

Keep six lines at the call site -- what the pathspec is, why it is not
wider, where to read more -- and move the trade-off detail to
references/tdd.md, which has no ceiling. That is the right home anyway:
the workflow is loaded into context on every run, the reference is read
on demand.

92882 bytes, 718 under. Pathspec line byte-identical; re-proved
behaviour after the trim: 0/7 conventions before, 7/7 after, no
implementation files matched either way.

* chore(#4379): refresh the compact-content benchmark baseline

execute-phase.md changed size, so the committed baseline drifted. The
script's own contract makes it a report that exits 0, but the test
asserts the committed baseline is up to date -- refresh via --write,
which is what the drift message instructs.

ec22377a9d fix(#4351): run-scope preserved review evidence (#4713)
* fix(#4351): run-scope preserved review evidence

The preserve block copied lane output into a flat .review-diagnostics/
using each file's source basename. A lane slug is stable across runs, so
the destination was stable across runs too -- and cp over an existing
file is a success, so a second review of the same phase destroyed the
first run's evidence with no error and no warning, in the one directory
that exists to outlive the rm -rf beside it.

Copy into one subdirectory per run instead. $RUN_DIR is mktemp -d, so
its basename is already unique per run by construction; the UTC stamp in
front is only a sort key and is omitted if date fails. Destination-only:
nothing inside $RUN_DIR is renamed, because both
prepare_trimmed_prompt_for_reviewer and the lane invocation resolver
depend on those exact basenames.

Verified by extracting the real fence and running it twice against one
phase dir: before, one report survived and it was run 2's; after, both.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: review.md — per-run diagnostics subdirectory plus the comment explaining why uniqueness cannot come from the clock
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(#4351): cover repeated runs, resolve through the run subdir

Adds the two-run rows the issue asks for: both runs' reports recoverable,
and a lane failing identically twice leaving two stubs. Both assert on
CONTENT, not a file count -- a clobber producing the same number of
files would pass a count-only check, and the defect is that run 1's
bytes were replaced.

runWriteReviewsFlow gains an optional phaseDir so a caller can run the
flow twice against one phase directory, which is the only arrangement
that can observe the overwrite. Omitted, it mints a fresh one as before.

The existing rows asserted a flat readdir of the diagnostics root, which
the fix makes stale. They now resolve through preservedPath/preservedNames
so they keep asserting WHICH files were preserved rather than silently
becoming assertions about the layout; the layout is pinned once,
explicitly, by oneRunSubdirectoryPerRun_4351.

Adversarial review: the fragment said each run gets its own "timestamped
subdirectory", which reads as though the timestamp provides the
separation. It does not -- collision-safety is mktemp's random basename,
and the stamp is a sort key that is dropped entirely when date fails.
The code comment already said so; the user-facing text now agrees.

1110c3b4ee fix(#4709): stop minting the retired gemini runtime id in shipped surfaces (#4711)
* test(#4709): assert no shipped surface mints a retired runtime id

Extends the #1928 removal guard to the surfaces it structurally could not
reach. Its own docblock scopes it to the installer CLI contract and the
runtime-name-policy exports; it spawns the installer and inspects module
exports, and never reads gsd-core/workflows/**, commands/** or skills/**.

Four structural assertions, all RED on next:
- every RUNTIME= assignment must name a canonical runtime
- the runtime->model-tier table must name only model-catalog runtimes
- runtime selection menus must offer only canonical runtimes
- config-set runtime / model_profile_overrides examples must be canonical

Structural, not textual: each asserts the literal is canonical or the runtime
exists as a catalog key, never that the string "gemini" is absent. That string
is load-bearing across Antigravity's real on-disk contract, so a fifth test
pins that contract from the descriptor (not from a resolved path, which would
read $ANTIGRAVITY_CONFIG_DIR and the real $HOME -- the #4312 defect class).
An over-broad gemini -> antigravity replacement fails there rather than ships.

The menu assertion is scoped by the nearest preceding `question:` matching
/runtime/i, because the same file carries a provider menu (anthropic, openai)
and a budget menu (high, medium, low) whose labels are single lowercase tokens
too and name neither a runtime nor anything the policy should judge.

Refs #4709

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

* fix(#4709): stop minting the retired gemini runtime id in workflow text

#1928 removed the gemini runtime after Google sunset Gemini CLI on 2026-06-18,
but the removal stopped at the installer boundary. Runtime-loaded workflow text
kept assigning the id, and the name policy's unknown-id fallbacks then applied a
default designed for a never-known FUTURE runtime to an id GSD itself retired:
getRuntimeLabel('gemini') is 'Claude Code', getProjectInstructionFile('gemini')
is 'AGENTS.md', getGlobalConfigDir('gemini') is ~/.claude. A stale id produced a
plausible wrong answer instead of an error.

Those fallbacks are DELIBERATE and are left untouched here -- four docblocks
document them, src/runtime-name-policy.cts:220-222 calls the label default "the
always-safe default, fail-closed", and an existing test in this very suite pins
getProjectInstructionFile('gemini') === 'AGENTS.md'. This commit removes the
REACHABILITY of the retired id instead:

- new-project.md, ingest-docs.md: the runtime-detection cascade mapped
  /.gemini/ and $GEMINI_CONFIG_DIR to RUNTIME=gemini. Both now map
  /.gemini/antigravity{,-ide,-cli}/ and $ANTIGRAVITY_CONFIG_DIR to
  RUNTIME=antigravity, the documented successor. ingest-docs.md was not in the
  original report; the new structural test found it.
- settings-advanced.md: dropped the `gemini` row from the runtime->model-tier
  table. The model catalog has no gemini runtime (runtimeTierDefaults has 18
  keys, none of them gemini), so the row advertised built-in defaults for a
  runtime whose config key is ignored. Its three model IDs were copied from the
  `google` PROVIDER preset -- a provider axis rendered as a runtime axis.
- settings-advanced.md: removed the `gemini` / "Gemini CLI." runtime menu
  option and its group listing, so no menu offers a runtime GSD cannot install.
- settings-advanced.md: repointed the config examples from `runtime gemini` to
  `runtime antigravity`, which ships no built-in tier defaults and is therefore
  the case those overrides actually exist for.
- reapply-patches.md: $GEMINI_CONFIG_DIR -> $ANTIGRAVITY_CONFIG_DIR,
  ~/.gemini/gsd-local-patches -> ~/.gemini/antigravity/gsd-local-patches, and
  the local scan's bare .gemini -> .agents (Antigravity's localConfigDir). This
  file is hand-written, so `npm run sync:launcher` never reached it.
- update.md: bare ~/.gemini and ./.gemini as GSD config dirs -> the real
  ~/.gemini/antigravity and ./.agents.

Antigravity's own Gemini-family surfaces are untouched by design: ~/.gemini as
its configHome parent, ~/.gemini/config for global skills/agents (#3738),
hookEvents "gemini", GEMINI.md as its projectInstructionFile, the
~/.gemini/antigravity{,-ide,-cli} ambiguity probes (#1441), and every gemini-*
model ID. The launcher's own GEMINI_CONFIG_DIR arm is left to #4632, which
absorbed #4347 for it.

* fix(#4709): keep the legacy patches probe, and stop tripping two lint gates

Three review findings, fixed inline.

1. Dropping the global ~/.gemini/gsd-local-patches probe was a regression: a
   pre-#1928 Gemini CLI install put patches there, and a stranded patches dir is
   still the user's work. Restored as an explicitly-labelled legacy arm probed
   AFTER Antigravity, so a live install always wins. This is a directory probe,
   not a runtime home -- it assigns no runtime id, so it does not reintroduce
   the defect this PR closes. The $GEMINI_CONFIG_DIR env probe is deliberately
   NOT restored: that names a runtime config home, which
   tests/declarative-reference-antigravity.test.cjs:307 pins as ignored.

2. The comment added in (1) originally contained the literal string that the new
   structural test matches, so the test flagged its own fix's comment as a mint.
   Reworded. The test was right; a comment in shipped workflow text is as
   readable to a matcher as code is.

3. docs/research/gemini-to-antigravity-migration.md used the colon slash-form
   inside a quoted manifest description. lint-docs-command-form rejects it:
   docs are never passed through the install-time converters, so the colon form
   names a command no runtime registers. Normalised to the hyphen form.

Also verified, rather than assumed: the local scan's .agents entry is
unambiguous. Antigravity is the ONLY runtime declaring localConfigDir '.agents'
across all 19 capability manifests; grok and codex use ~/.agents as a GLOBAL
home, and this scan is local (./$dir).

* fix(#4709): retire Gemini CLI from the PR templates, and close two review gaps

Adversarial review findings, all fixed inline.

1. All three .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/*.md still offered "Gemini CLI" under
   "Runtimes tested", and none offered Antigravity. #1928's follow-up dropped
   Gemini CLI from .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/*.yml but missed the PR templates, so
   every contributor opening a fix/feature/enhancement PR has been asked for two
   releases which runtime they tested and offered a retired one. Now Antigravity.
   Guarded by a new assertion: runtime checklist labels in the PR templates must
   appear in the runtime label table. Proven non-vacuous by reverting one
   template line and watching the probe report the offender.

2. The #4709 scanning corpus excluded agents/, which also ships runtime-loaded
   markdown including .compact.md variants. Widened: 318 -> 382 files (+64), zero
   new offenders, so the gap was coverage rather than a live defect.

3. gsd-core/workflows/sync-skills.md said "grok and gemini have no dedicated
   installer flag — they alias the codex and claude skills roots respectively."
   The gemini half is wrong twice over: the runtime is retired, and it never
   aliased claude -- canonicalizeRuntimeName returns null for it and the caller's
   fail-closed default merely happens to be claude. Describing that as designed
   aliasing is exactly the confusion this issue is about. Reduced to grok, which
   genuinely does alias the codex skills root.

4. The changeset said the runtime was removed in 1.11. It shipped in 1.8.0
   (CHANGELOG.md:1023 is the enclosing release heading for the #1928 entry at
   :1124). Corrected.

1. tests/sync-skills-cross-runtime-refuse.test.cjs pinned the literal phrase
   "grok and gemini have no dedicated installer flag" — a test REQUIRING shipped
   text to name a runtime retired in 1.8.0, which is the exact class #4709
   exists to remove. The assertion and its rationale comment now track the
   corrected prose ("grok has no dedicated installer flag"), and the docblock's
   runtime list drops gemini. The remaining assertions in that file — the
   guard's exit, the installer pointer, the $DEST reference, guard-before-copy
   ordering — are untouched, so #3025's contract is otherwise intact.

2. tests/fixtures/compact-content-benchmark-baseline.json drifted because the
   new-project.md edits changed its compacted size (split "new-project": off
   14279 -> 14308, on 12335 -> 12364; aggregate off 107411 -> 107440).
   Refreshed with `node scripts/benchmark-compact-content.cjs --write`, which
   is that script's own documented remedy.

3. emitted-attribution reported four grown workflow files with no
   acknowledgment. Acked below as commit trailers per ADR-3942, which moved the
   acknowledgment out of tests/emitted-drift-acks/*.json fragments and into the
   PR's own commit range (read with three-dot base...head). Exactly the four
   files the gate named are acked — settings-advanced.md and sync-skills.md
   shrank and are deliberately absent, since a trailer no delta consumed is a
   staleAcks error.

Refs #4709

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: ingest-docs.md — the runtime-detection cascade now names Antigravity's three real directories (/.gemini/antigravity{,-ide,-cli}/) and $ANTIGRAVITY_CONFIG_DIR in place of the single retired /.gemini/ arm and $GEMINI_CONFIG_DIR; three correct paths cost more bytes than the one wrong path they replace.
Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: new-project.md — same runtime-detection correction as ingest-docs.md, plus dropping "gemini/" from the two GEMINI.md instruction-file sentences so the prose stops contradicting getProjectInstructionFile, which returns AGENTS.md for that retired id.
Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: reapply-patches.md — restores the legacy ~/.gemini/gsd-local-patches probe as an explicitly-labelled arm after an adversarial-review finding that dropping it stranded a pre-#1928 user's patches, and repoints the env/global probes at Antigravity; the four-line comment is load-bearing, since a bare retired-runtime path with no explanation is exactly what the next reader would delete.
Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: update.md — bare ~/.gemini and ./.gemini as GSD config dirs are replaced by the real ~/.gemini/antigravity and ./.agents, which are longer strings; no content was added beyond the corrected paths.

f334f277dd fix(#4324): stop the retired /gsd: prefix reaching users (#4712)
* test(#4324): prove colon tokens the installer cannot convert leak

Failing-first regression coverage for #4324. The install rewrite
(transformContentToHyphen) is gated on an exact match against the
commands/gsd stem list, so any /gsd:<token> whose token is not a
registered stem survives the install and reaches the user as the
deprecated colon form.

The gate is load-bearing -- it is the only thing protecting the
workflow DSL marker family (gsd:section, gsd:protected, gsd:loop-host,
gsd:guard, gsd:dispatch, gsd:plan-revision-conflicts), which
workflow-fragments parses as a literal. So this suite asserts the
shipped text is convertible rather than asserting the transform is
broad, and pins the marker family as explicit negative space.

* fix(#4324): stop unconvertible colon tokens reaching the user

The install rewrite is gated on an exact match against the commands/gsd
stem list, so a /gsd:<token> whose token is not a registered stem
survives the install and reaches the user as the deprecated colon form.
That gate is load-bearing -- it protects the gsd:section /
gsd:protected / gsd:loop-host marker family -- so the fix is in the
shipped text, and the source stays colon per CONTEXT.md's two-tier rule.

- quick-batch command + skill description: close the command token at a
  boundary so `/gsd:quick`-shaped converts instead of being skipped.
- gsd-code-fixer (both variants): execute-plan and diagnose-issues are
  workflows, not commands, so they never converted and rendered beside
  two hyphenated siblings on the same line. Name them as workflows.
- help topic-mode: the extraction rule hard-coded a colon prefix that
  the converted full.md never ships, so --brief could never match a
  signature line and silently fell back on every topic. Describe the
  signature line without a literal prefix.
- update.md: drop the prefix from prose describing a stale command.

* fix(#4324): locate the help summary per reference variant

Adversarial review finding. Restoring the signature-line match (the
#4324 fix) activated a latent defect in the clause next to it: compact
scope emitted "the single non-blank line immediately after" the
signature, and that clause is only correct for full.md.

full.compact.md puts the summary on the signature line itself, after an
em-dash, and its next non-blank line is an unrelated "Usage:" line. Both
variants ship and both are served, so before this commit the compact
variant would have emitted the wrong line as the summary. It was masked
until now only because the stale colon prefix meant no signature line
ever matched at all.

Name the two placements and pick per line, and say explicitly that a
Usage: line is never a summary.

* test(#4324): de-vacuum the help parity check, narrow the marker waiver

Two adversarial review findings against the #4324 coverage.

The help-parity assertion went vacuous the moment the fix landed: once
topic.md stops spelling a literal prefix, the matched set is empty and
the assertion holds for any rewording, correct or not. It now also
asserts across BOTH served reference variants that each ships signature
lines under the hyphen prefix, that the two genuinely disagree about
where the summary sits, and that topic.md still names both placements
and the Usage: guard.

The marker waiver keyed on "sits inside an HTML comment", which waves
through a real broken reference that happens to be commented out --
`<!-- see /gsd:typo-cmd -->` scored clean. Enumerate the six marker
families instead. Verified the narrowed rule catches that probe and
still passes over the tree; it also surfaced a seventh family,
write-continue, that the broad rule was hiding.

* fix(#4324): normalize the namespace in skill descriptions

Both hyphen-namespace skill converters ran the hyphen transform over the
body but rebuilt the frontmatter description from the raw field, so a
/gsd:<cmd> mention in a command description survived into the installed
SKILL.md -- the exact field the host's skill picker renders, which is
the surface this issue was filed about.

The local flat-command path was already correct because it rewrites the
whole file; only the skills path, used by a global install, was
affected. Confirmed by installing into a fake HOME before and after.

Fixed in both copies: bin/install.js and the src/ source of truth that
compiles into gsd-core/bin/lib.

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

* test(#4324): assert descriptions through the real converters

The previous version of this check called transformContentToHyphen on
the description line itself and passed, while a real install still
shipped the colon form -- the converter never calls that transform on
the description. It asserted a proxy for the behaviour instead of the
behaviour.

Drive convertClaudeCommandToClaudeSkill and
convertClaudeCommandToClineSkill over every registered command and
assert on the emitted description. Verified it fails against the
pre-fix converters and passes against the fixed ones.

* chore(#4324): regenerate skills after the description change

skills/<name>/SKILL.md is generated by gen-plugin-skills, not
hand-maintained, and lint:generated-sync caught the hand edit. The
regenerated file emits the hyphen form, which also corrects the
assumption behind the scan comment in the namespace test: skills/ is
runtime-emitter output, not colon source.

* test(#4324): re-sanction normalizeKimiSkillName's real end line

The description-normalisation fix inserted five lines above
normalizeKimiSkillName in src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts, moving its
closing brace from 635 to 640. MAJOR-1 pins that line deliberately, so the
planted violation landed INSIDE the exempted body and went unflagged --
0 !== 1.

Re-sanction the value rather than derive it: the array is named
sanctionedRealEndLines, and a pinned line that fails loudly on drift is
the design. Deriving it would remove the human check the name asks for.

Verified by executing all four MAJOR-1 rows against the real tree: each
planted violation is flagged at realEndLine+1 and each unmodified file
stays exempt.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-code-fixer.md — names execute-plan and diagnose-issues as workflows rather than as slash commands that do not exist
Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-code-fixer.compact.md — same rewording as its full sibling, kept byte-consistent with it

c0b2a05d2f fix(#4594): one canonical dispatch-identity owner — the emitted format and the parser that reads it back (#4693)
* fix(#4594): give dispatch identity one owner for the emitted format and its parser

The isolation guards decided whether a run-scoped sentinel applied to a
dispatch by regex-scraping model-authored prose. The scrape returned values in
a different namespace from the ones the sentinel records, so the comparison
could never succeed:

  sentinel  { phase: "03", plan: "03-02-hardening" }   <- $PHASE_NUMBER / $plan_id
  prose     "Execute plan 02 of phase 03-auth."
  scraped   { phase: "03-auth.", plan: "02" }          <- greedy (\S+), both wrong

#4594 reports only the phase half. Measured against a real phase-plan-index
run, plans[].id is phase-prefixed, plan-numbered AND slugged, while the prose
carries a bare in-phase plan number — so the plan field mismatches too, and the
Claude path is dead rather than latent. A fresh sentinel was therefore
discarded on every executor dispatch and every legitimate ISOLATION=none
degrade was denied, leaving the work unrun.

hooks/lib/dispatch-identity.js is now the single owner of both halves. The two
prompt-body producers emit a canonical marker carrying the same shell values
the sentinel records, so producer and consumer agree by construction. The prose
frame stays as a fallback, bounded by the phase-token grammar ADR-2121 owns and
deliberately reporting no plan — an absent identifier means "cannot compare"
and is safe; a wrong one is a false mismatch and is not.

The prose sentence itself is byte-identical: the executor agent reads it too,
so the marker is purely additive (Hyrum's Law).

An inapplicable sentinel is now named in the guards' deny reason instead of
being dropped silently — the silence is why this survived three producers and
two consumers unnoticed. Interpolated values come from a sentinel file and from
prompt text, so both are length-bounded and stripped of control characters.

ADR-4630 locks the seam and maps the epic's three phases.

* fix(#4594): resolve eight review findings across the dispatch-identity seam

Three orthogonal review engines ran on 43418af144 — the code-review skill's
Standards and Spec axes, and an isolated adversarial security pass — plus a
self-review of the committed diff. Every finding is fixed here; none deferred.

F1 (major, reproduced). A keyless or unknown-key-only marker — the literal
"[gsd:dispatch]" or "[gsd:dispatch run=..]" — matched the marker grammar and
returned source:'marker' with both fields null, suppressing the prose fallback
entirely. Any prompt text containing that literal silently disabled identity
narrowing, so a fresh sentinel applied to a dispatch it was never scoped to,
defeating #3045 SECURITY F2. Prompt text is attacker-influenceable. A marker
that yields neither recognized key is no longer a marker: the scan continues to
later markers, then later texts, then prose. Forward-compatible tolerance of
unknown keys is unchanged.

F2/F3 (major). The first cut duplicated sanitizeForReason,
describeSentinelDiscard and REASON_INTERPOLATION_MAX_LEN byte-for-byte across
both guards — the exact defect class this epic exists to delete, and with no
cold-load justification, since both hooks already require hooks/lib/. They now
live in hooks/lib/isolation-deny-reason.js, and buildSentinelDiscard lives in
isolation-sentinel.js beside the comparison it mirrors, returning the nested
{sentinel:{phase,plan}, dispatch:{phase,plan}} shape instead of a bespoke
four-field bag that renamed the pairs already flowing through the seam.

F4 (hard violation). The visibility test asserted on the deny reason's prose.
CONTRIBUTING.md prohibits raw text matching on hook output, which is why every
deny carries a stable reason_code. The discard is now a structured
sentinel_discarded field on each hook's stdout JSON, and the test asserts that;
the sentence stays for the operator but is no longer the contract.

F5 (hard violation). The 64-character truncation limit had no boundary
coverage. 63/64/65 are now exercised against the single consolidated helper.

F6 (minor). sanitizeForReason stripped C0/C1 controls but not U+2028/U+2029 or
the bidi overrides, so a crafted value could still reflow or reverse the
message. Both classes are stripped, with a test each.

F7 (major). The producer/template parity test was vacuous — it rendered a
marker and re-parsed its own output, and would have passed with both templates
deleted. It now reads the two workflow templates, extracts each marker line,
substitutes the measured values and asserts the owner's parser returns them.
Proven red by deleting one template's marker line before being proven green.

F8 (doc). ADR-4630 and the design notes claimed the marker is guaranteed on the
orchestrator-worktree path because that prompt is built in shell. It is not:
executor-isolation-dispatch.md:131 says plainly that those are template
placeholders, not shell variables, so {plan_id} is model-substituted there too.
A false guarantee in a design lock is worse than a stated limit. Both documents
now say the marker is model-substituted on both paths and that the prose
fallback is the real floor everywhere. The "3 workflow templates" count was
also wrong — 3 prose sites across 2 files, 2 of which carry the marker.

* chore(#4594): refresh the compact-content baseline and acknowledge execute-phase.md growth

Refs #4630.

The dispatch-identity marker and its substitution note grew
gsd-core/workflows/execute-phase.md by 525 bytes (91846 -> 92371), which drifts
two real-tree guards that lint:ci does not run:

- tests/benchmark-compact-content.test.cjs asserts the committed baseline is
  "up to date"; the split for execute-phase.md moved off 25827 -> 25952 and on
  23576 -> 23701, taking its compaction reduction 8.72% -> 8.67%. Baseline
  regenerated with scripts/benchmark-compact-content.cjs --write.
- tests/emitted-attribution.test.cjs requires a growth acknowledgment trailer
  for any emitted file that grows, keyed on the bare filename. Added below.

The growth is two additions and no rewrites: the [gsd:dispatch ...] marker line
inside the Agent() prompt's <objective>, and the note telling the orchestrator
to substitute {plan_id} with the plan's id verbatim. Both are load-bearing --
the marker is what lets a guard hook match a dispatch to the sentinel the
per-plan gate wrote, and without the note the orchestrator has no instruction
telling it the value must not be paraphrased.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: execute-phase.md — adds the canonical [gsd:dispatch] identity marker and its {plan_id} substitution note, which the isolation guards compare verbatim against the run-scoped sentinel (#4594)

bbdf7e8e84 chore(#4654): add local/no-unconfined-path-join and drain it to zero — Phase 4 of #4636 (#4674)
* chore(#4654): add local/no-unconfined-path-join and drain it to zero

Phase 4 of epic #4636 — the ratchet, and the phase that makes the epic hold.

THE MEASUREMENT THAT RESHAPED THE PHASE. An AST census (the repo's own parser,
not grep) found what the epic never enumerated: ADR-4650 named seven containment
implementations; `src/` alone held roughly 24 more hand-rolled gates across ~13
files, several guarding a write or an `fs.rmSync`. Two verified by reading rather
than pattern-matching — `research-store.cts` comments its own as "ensure the
resolved file path stays inside the store dir" immediately before a write, and
`capability-lifecycle.cts` gates `fs.rmSync` with one.

So the epic's Done-when "one containment predicate, used at every site" was FALSE
when Phase 3 reported it satisfied. It is true now: the rule is clean across
src/, scripts/, gsd-core/bin/ and hooks/ with an EMPTY allowlist.

WHY NOT THE RULE THE ISSUE PROPOSED. #4654 proposed flagging `path.join` whose
first argument is a managed root and whose later arguments derive from argv. That
is a taint analysis over 2046 call sites, in ESLint, without type information;
"derives from argv" is not locally decidable. Any approximation either floods or
is trivially evaded, and a rule that fires on hundreds of correct sites earns an
allowlist of hundreds — the opposite of a ratchet. What is actually duplicated is
the COMPARISON, not the join, and that has one recognizable shape.

  Arm 1  X.startsWith(Y + sep)            the hand-rolled containment idiom
  Arm 2  a containment predicate called as a bare statement, answer discarded

Arm 2 is the issue's "asserts the result was narrowed, not merely that a helper
was called". Its example `validatePath(x, root).resolved` is already
structurally impossible — Phase 3 un-exported `validatePath` — so the remaining
expressible failure is ignoring the answer, which is the defect that recurred
five times in this epic. The census found exactly one live instance
(`milestone.cts:1643`); it now returns the proven `ContainedPath` so consumers
stop re-deriving the path the comment above it was extracted to stop them
re-deriving.

The rule deliberately does NOT try to catch validate-one-path-use-another where
the answer is used but a different variable flows onward. That needs flow
analysis; the branded `ContainedPath` from Phase 3 is the defense there, and the
two are complementary.

PER-SITE FAMILY CHOICE, NOT A DEFAULT. Phase 3's lesson binds: collapsing a
lexical site onto the realpath family broke four tests and was caught only by the
matrix. Every migrated site was triaged individually. The six
installer-migrations tree-walks and the six capability-lifecycle gates take the
LEXICAL family because their operands are already realpath-resolved and they
deliberately treat the final component as a link; boundary sites take realpath.

TWO SITES WITH AN INVERTED CONTRACT, which a mechanical swap would have broken.
`installer-migrations.cts:127` and `runtime-artifact-install-plan.cts:144` REJECT
`target === root` by contract, while the canonical comparison ACCEPTS it. Swapped
naively, a migration could `rmdir` the user's config root and a third-party
descriptor could write at configHome itself. Both keep `=== root` as an explicit
additional arm alongside the predicate call — the predicate decides containment,
the call site keeps its own extra condition (ADR-4650 decision 6).

ONE DUPLICATE DELETED OUTRIGHT: `planning-inspect.cts`'s `isWithinRoot` was
byte-identical to `isContainedIn` and said so in its own docstring.
`isContainedIn` is now exported for callers that have already resolved both
operands and need only the comparison, with a doc note that a caller which has
NOT resolved them must use a full predicate instead.

THE MARKER, AND WHY IT IS NOT THE ALLOWLIST. Nine sites are justified holdouts and
carry `// allow-handrolled-containment: <reason>` with a mandatory, reviewable
reason. Two justifications: (a) not a containment decision — an ancestor-walk loop
condition, sub-repo grouping, worktree identity matching, declared-path coverage;
(b) it IS containment but the canonical predicate is unreachable —
`capability-validator.cjs` is a committed pre-build `.cjs` and the compiled
`security.cjs` is untracked build output, so requiring it would break a fresh
clone. `scripts/lib/drift-scan.cjs` runs under `lint:ci` with the same exposure.
The marker was renamed from `allow-lexical-prefix-match` mid-phase because that
name asserted only (a) and would have stated something false at the (b) sites.

A marker suppresses BEFORE the violation counter increments, so a file whose
every occurrence is marked still reports `staleAllowlistEntry` — otherwise a
drained entry lingers and silently re-permits the site later.

DEMONSTRATED RED, per #4654: a hand-rolled copy reintroduced into a real `src/`
file made `npm run lint` fail with the rule's full guidance message; removing it
returned the tree to clean. Both halves recorded — red alone proves nothing,
since a rule red for an unrelated reason looks identical.

DISCLOSED: `defaultRequireFromInstallRoot` (gsd-tools.cjs) previously carried two
distinct rejection messages and two manual realpath calls; routing it through
`tryWithinRoot` collapses them to one message, and a missing module now surfaces
as MODULE_NOT_FOUND rather than ENOENT. No test asserts either message. The
security property is preserved and slightly strengthened — the candidate is
realpathed and containment re-checked, and the dangling-symlink oracle closure
comes along with it.

* docs(#4654): record the containment ratchet in CONTEXT.md and the security model

Both entries previously described the seam without the thing that keeps it a
seam. They now state what the rule bans, and — more usefully for whoever reads
this next — what it deliberately does NOT attempt: deciding per path.join call
whether an argument came from user input. That question is not locally
decidable, and an approximation across ~2000 join sites would earn an exemption
list of hundreds, which is the opposite of a ratchet.

Also records the marker's two legitimate justifications and that its reason is
mandatory, so the escape stays reviewable rather than becoming a mute button.

Glossary gate 270 refs exit 0; install-tree goldens and CONTEXT-INDEX.json
regenerated and confirmed byte-identical rather than assumed — which also
confirms eslint-rules/ is not a shipped path.

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

* fix(#4654): close review findings and the two matrix failures

MATRIX FAILURE 1 — a collapsed message broke a negative-proof test, and my
evidence for collapsing it was wrong. I searched tests/ for the literal string
"resolves outside its install root", found nothing, and reported that no test
asserted it. The test matches a REGEX SUBSTRING, /outside its install root/, so
the literal search missed it. What broke was "NEGATIVE PROOF: a symlinked module
pointing OUTSIDE the install root is not loaded" — the test guarding the exact
property I claimed was preserved. defaultRequireFromInstallRoot now does both
checks again with both messages byte-identical, each routed through the
canonical predicate, which is better than the original since that hand-rolled
both comparisons.

MATRIX FAILURE 2 — shipped migrations are checksum-locked, and a marker cannot
serve there. migrationChecksum hashes plan.toString(), which INCLUDES comments,
so a suppression marker inside a plan body drifts the baseline exactly as an
edit does. Measured: with markers in place, two of the four still differed from
their committed checksums. The four shipped bodies are now byte-identical to
next, and the rule's config excludes those four paths BY NAME rather than by a
directory wildcard, so a NEW migration is still covered. Six containment
comparisons stay un-ratcheted there; that gap is recorded in the rule's Known
gaps, in CONTEXT.md and in the security model rather than left implicit.
Justification (c) is removed from the marker's documented reasons, because a
marker was proven unable to express it.

ADVERSARIAL REVIEW — the sharpest finding was that the rule banned the CORRECT
shape while permitting the incorrect one: startsWith(root) with no separator is
the genuinely unsafe form, since it accepts a sibling such as root-evil, and my
own test blessed it as valid. Flagging every bare startsWith would swamp the
rule, so that stays a STATED gap rather than a silent one. Closed for real: the
template-literal spelling, which the census never saw because it only inspected
plus-concatenation — that surfaced TWELVE more sites, now triaged and migrated.
A separator reached through a const alias is now resolved via scope analysis.
And isContainedIn, exported in Phase 3, was missing from the discarded-result
set, so a bare no-op call went unflagged on the one function the epic funnels
through.

SECURITY REVIEW — the marker could over-suppress two ways: a block comment
worked identically to a line comment, and one marker silently covered every
violation sharing its line. It now requires a Line comment positioned after the
flagged node ends, so it anchors to the node it trails. Four sites had dropped
an unreachable-but-deliberate equality rejection against the root; each is
restored as the call site's own arm. eslint.config.mjs still documented the OLD
marker token, which my rename missed — it would have sent the next author in
circles.

A FALSE GREEN, recorded because it nearly stuck: lint:ci reported exit 0 from a
stale eslint cache while twelve real violations existed. Every lint check here
now clears the cache first.

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

* fix(#4654): anchor a suppression marker to the violation it actually trails

The matrix caught this; my own test caught it, on its first execution. The case
"two violations on one line: trailing marker suppresses only the one it trails"
expected 1 error and got 0 — both were suppressed.

ROOT CAUSE: the anchoring accepted any Line comment on the node's line whose
range started at or after the node's end. A trailing marker at the END of a line
sits after EVERY node on that line, so that condition held for all of them.
"After the node" does not identify WHICH node the marker trails. The fix reads
as correct and is not.

FIX: deferred reporting. Violations accumulate during traversal instead of being
reported immediately; at Program:exit each marker claims exactly ONE pending
violation — the one on its line whose end is nearest before the marker begins —
and every unclaimed violation is then counted and reported. One marker, one
suppression. An earlier violation sharing the line is still reported, which is
the property the security review asked for and the previous attempt only
appeared to deliver.

The counter now increments at flush time rather than during traversal, so a
suppressed occurrence still does not keep an allowlist entry alive.

AND A TOOL THAT SHOULD HAVE EXISTED BEFORE THE FIRST MATRIX RUN. `node --test`
is hard-blocked here, so this rule's test file could only ever be executed on
the remote matrix — which is why a broken anchoring shipped into a run. ESLint's
programmatic Linter API is not a test runner, and exercising the rule through it
verifies every case locally in seconds. All 24 now pass locally, including the
two-on-one-line case that failed remotely. That loop should have been built
before the rule was first sent to the matrix rather than after it failed twice.

* chore(#4654): backfill PR 4674 into the changeset and complete 70-docs.json

The phase gate requires enablementSequence and the Diataxis quadrants; 70-docs
now carries both, with the how-to quadrant skipped for a stated reason rather
than an empty field. The audience for this deliverable is a contributor who
trips the rule, and the task-oriented guidance reaches them in the ESLint
message itself — which names the correct predicate, says how to choose between
the realpath and lexical families, cites the Phase 3 regression caused by
choosing wrong, and gives the marker syntax. A docs/how-to page would be a
second, driftable copy read by nobody at the moment of failure.

enablementSequence is recorded as what it actually is: a VERIFICATION sequence,
not an enablement one. The rule is never off, so there is no off-to-on
transition to describe.

6edd506cc7 fix(#4558): report a byte-identical restore destination as already_present (#4599)
* fix(#4558): report a byte-identical restore destination as already_present

restore-custom-files treated a destination that is byte-identical to its
backup exactly like a missing one: plan reported it as `eligible`, --apply
re-copied the same bytes and reported `restored`, and both counters
included it. Because update.md drives its restore question off
eligible_count, the workflow re-offered the same no-op restore on every
update and accepting it never settled anything.

Emit a distinct `already_present` outcome for that case. It is excluded
from eligible_count and restored_count, --apply writes nothing for it,
and the backup is left intact. A differing destination is still
skipped_destination_exists and a missing one still restores normally.

Regression tests cover the identical-destination plan/apply paths, the
idempotence-after-success cycle (missing -> restored -> silent plan), and
a mixed backup. Docs for the outcome enum are updated to match.

* fix(#4558): tighten already_present wording after review

update.md's RESTORE_ELIGIBLE == 0 branch now also names the already-present
case, CLI-TOOLS.md no longer calls the follow-up plan run "silent" (the
entry is still reported, just never offered), and a test message reads
correctly.

* chore(#4558): add changeset fragment for #4599

* chore(#4558): acknowledge update.md growth from the restore-outcome guidance

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: update.md — added already_present restore-outcome guidance for #4558

bbc3f131be refactor(#4653): make containment ONE decision, resolved two ways
Satisfies #4653 DW1 and DW9, which were the phase's outstanding acceptance
criteria: every other implementation must be deleted or route its containment
DECISION through the canonical predicate, and no surviving wrapper may decide
WHETHER a path is contained.

Three implementations were being retained with their own comparisons, on the
argument that each needs LEXICAL resolution — a realpath-based predicate is the
wrong tool wherever a symlink must be preserved rather than resolved. That
argument is correct about RESOLUTION and was being used to justify owning the
DECISION too. Those are separable, and separating them is what closes the
criteria honestly rather than by reinterpretation.

  isContainedIn(resolvedTarget, resolvedRoot, pathImpl?)   module-internal

is now the single place this repo decides containment. It is separator-aware, so
a sibling merely sharing a prefix (`<root>-evil` against `<root>`) is still
rejected. Two exported families sit on it and differ ONLY in how a candidate is
resolved before the decision:

  assertWithinRoot / tryWithinRoot                realpath-resolving
  assertWithinRootLexical / tryWithinRootLexical  path.resolve only, no I/O

The lexical pair carries `opts.pathImpl`, so win32 separator semantics stay
testable off Windows — that seam already existed in isPathConfined and would
have been lost by a naive collapse.

The three call sites now take their decision from the predicate and keep only
what is genuinely theirs:

  external-descriptor-trust isPathConfined   delegates outright; pathImpl forwarded
  installer-migrations ensureInsideConfig    delegates; keeps its own message and
                                             its LEXICAL fullPath, which callers
                                             consume for existsSync and journal rows
  gsd-tools.cjs isInsideDir                  delegates; keeps its own `target !==
                                             root` condition, and the separate
                                             symlink refusal above it stands

DW5 is not weakened by this. That criterion binds the symlink oracle and the
ancestor canonicalization; both are untouched. The only change inside
validatePath is three comparison lines becoming one call, and the rejection
string `Path escapes allowed directory: <resolved> is outside <base>` stays
byte-identical because it is an observable CLI contract.

What this does NOT do, stated plainly: the lexical family still cannot see a
symlink. That is a property of lexical resolution, not a gap in the seam, and
the three callers that need it are the three that must pair it with their own
symlink refusal — which is exactly what the fix earlier in this phase added at
the install sites. The doc comment says so at the definition, and CONTEXT.md and
docs/explanation/security-model.md are corrected: they previously described
these three as deliberately NOT routed through the predicate, which is no longer
true.

cd58aaabf4 refactor(#4653): drain the containment duplicates and record the two rulings
Phase 3 of epic #4636, stage 3c. ADR-4650 decision 6: a wrapper may decide HOW
to degrade, never WHETHER a path is contained. Four implementations are drained
on that rule; two are retained, with the reasons recorded rather than assumed.

DRAINED — the containment decision now comes from the canonical predicate:

  scripts/check-glossary-refs.cjs   local isWithinRoot deleted outright.
  src/installer-migrations.cts      ensureInsideConfig keeps its throw and its
                                    lexical fullPath; only the decision moves.
  src/planning-inspect.cts          isPathContained keeps must-exist as its own
                                    condition; only the decision moves.

Two of those are wrappers rather than deletions, and each is a wrapper for a
reason that would have been a silent behavior change if collapsed naively:

- `isPathContained` returns FALSE for a path that does not exist, because
  fs.realpathSync throws ENOENT and its catch swallows it. The canonical
  predicate does the opposite: for a missing target it walks up to the nearest
  existing ancestor and ACCEPTS a not-yet-created path under the root. Its
  callers at planning-inspect.cts:747 and :839 guard a phaseDir immediately
  before readdirSync, so under a naive swap a missing phaseDir would stop
  reporting scope UNREADABLE and start throwing ENOENT out of readdirSync.
  Existence is therefore kept as an explicit local requirement.

- `ensureInsideConfig` returns a LEXICAL fullPath that both callers consume for
  existsSync and for journal entries. The canonical predicate realpath-resolves,
  so if configDir is itself a symlink the two differ. The decision is canonical;
  the returned value stays lexical. Its message is likewise preserved verbatim,
  which is why this uses tryWithinRoot plus an explicit throw rather than
  assertWithinRoot.

`isWithinRoot` in planning-inspect is left in place and documented: it is a pure
comparison over paths the CALLER has already resolved, which readDocument does
inline specifically to keep a third degradation shape (exists-but-unreadable vs
absent) that neither isPathContained nor the canonical predicate expresses. It
is the comparison step of one implementation, not a second implementation.

RETAINED, DELIBERATELY — gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs. My own design document said
"collapse" and that was wrong. The file carries an explicit comment forbidding
it, and the comment is correct: its three checks reject symlinks OUTRIGHT, which
is strictly stricter than the canonical predicate, not a reimplementation of it.
The canonical predicate accepts a link whose target lands inside the root — for
a restore that is still wrong, because writing through the link overwrites
whatever it points at instead of materializing a regular file. Collapsing would
have reintroduced that hole. The comment is updated to name the current exported
predicate, to record that this was reviewed under this phase and deliberately
not collapsed, and to note that isInsideDir treats target === root as NOT
contained — the one implementation in the repo that does.

THE configHome RULING — retained lexical, and a false safety claim corrected.
isPathConfined stays lexical because two of its callers must validate a
destSubpath BEFORE the mkdirSync that creates it (install-engine.cts:1608,
install-profiles.cts:880), where realpath cannot resolve and a realpath-based
predicate would reject every legitimate install.

Its docstring's justification, however, did not survive being checked. It cited
capability-source.cts:491,577,675 as the upstream symlink rejection that made
the lexical form safe. Read directly: :491 is a blank line before assertSafeId's
JSDoc and :577 is an entry-count budget check. Neither is a symlink check. The
real guards are :585-586 and :671-674. Worse than stale line numbers, the claim
that this "keeps every caller of this function's callers symlink-safe" is false:
that rejection lives in capability-source's staging path and covers only the
capability-loader route to assertDescriptorConfined. Three other callers do not
reach it, and only retired-artifact-cleanup.cts:69 carries its own defense
(its lstatSync check at :77). The docstring now states what is actually true and
cites the lines that actually exist.

a2331c01f1 fix(#4568): widen the phase-number regex to accept N-segment ids at 6 shell/markdown sites (#4646)
* test(#4568): pin the N-segment phase-grammar defect across all 6 shell/markdown sites

Manually traced against the current tree: the validating regex at
code-review.md rejects a 3-segment id (23.1.2), and execute-plan.md's
extraction truncates a 23.1.2-01-PLAN.md filename down to 1.2-01.

* fix(#4568): widen the phase-number regex to accept N-segment ids at all 6 shell/markdown sites

Widens `?` to `*` on the dotted-segment group at all 6 sites (byte-identical
behavior for 1- and 2-segment ids, character class unchanged): code-review.md,
code-review-fix.md, gsd-code-fixer.md, gsd-code-fixer.compact.md (validating
sites, plus their comment/error-message text), execute-plan.md's plan-filename
extraction, and plan-phase.md's --research-phase flag capture.

Also disambiguates the nsegment-phase-grammar test's plan-phase.md anchor,
which was matching an unrelated earlier `--research-phase` occurrence (line
77's generic-value capture) instead of the targeted site (line 131).

db4d8a9bae fix(#4619): execute-phase computes decimal/N-segment phase numbers without breaking shell arithmetic (#4644)
* fix(#4619): execute-phase computes decimal/N-segment phase numbers without breaking shell arithmetic

$((10#${PHASE_NUMBER})) is a hard bash/zsh syntax error when PHASE_NUMBER is
decimal (01.1, from an inserted phase) or N-segment (23.1.2) — neither is
valid shell-arithmetic syntax at all, and the failed expansion aborts the
rest of the snippet in a non-interactive shell. safe_resume_gate runs
unconditionally before trusting STATE.md or dispatching any executor, so
execute-phase failed at its own gate before the first executor on any
decimal phase, regardless of workflow.tdd_mode. Regression from #4194.

Fixes all 4 sites: safe_resume_gate and the TDD gate in
workflows/execute-phase.md, the completion-signal spot-check fallback in
workflows/execute-phase/steps/completion-reconciliation.md, and the
executor gate validation example in references/tdd.md. Each now zero-strips
only the leading integer segment into a *_INT variable (via %%.* / #
parameter expansion — always valid shell syntax regardless of what follows)
and keeps the remainder as an escaped-dot string for the anchored commit-
scope regex, exactly as issue #4619 verified in both bash and zsh. A plain
integer phase (12, 01) computes byte-identically to before.

* test(#4619): pin the decimal/N-segment fix and characterize the pre-fix bug

Behavioral coverage via real bash execution: the old $((10#01.1)) form
throws (characterizes the bug, matching the issue's own reproduction); the
new form resolves 01.1 -> 1\.1 and 23.1.2 -> 23\.1\.2, unchanged for plain
integers (12 -> 12, 01 -> 1); the resulting anchored ERE matches
feat(01.1-03):/test(1.1-3): and correctly rejects feat(01-03):,
feat(01.2-03):, feat(011-03):, feat(12-03): for a decimal phase — mirroring
issue #4619's own verified table exactly. Updates
safe-resume-gate-anchoring.test.cjs's 4 existing source-text assertions
(one per site) to the new fixed text.

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

* chore(#4634): refine the shell-arith drift detector to distinguish safe from unsafe arithmetic

With #4619's fix in place, the guard's original "ban $((10#... outright,
match any occurrence" was too blunt: it flagged a comment merely mentioning
the pattern in prose, the now-safe $((10#$PHASE_INT)) arithmetic on an
already-%%.*-stripped integer, and the always-safe plan-id arithmetic
(plan ids are plain integers, never decimal). Refines the detector to skip
full-line comments and to only flag a captured variable/placeholder name
that contains "phase" and does NOT end in _INT/_int — the naming convention
the #4619 fix establishes at all four sites for "already reduced to a safe
integer." A plan-id variable was never phase-number arithmetic in the first
place and is excluded on the same basis.

This closes epic #4634's D6 ("lint-phase-id-drift... passes with no new
exemptions") and D7 ("a decimal and N-segment phase id survive an
end-to-end execute-phase selection without error") for real — the guard now
reports zero violations across all five .cts/.md rules.

The test's string-literal assertions for the PHASE_FRAC//./\\.} pattern wrote
only 2 backslash characters in JS source, which single-quoted-string parsing
collapses to 1 real backslash at runtime -- but the workflow/reference files
actually contain 2 raw backslash bytes at that position (needed so bash's
${var//pattern/replacement} produces the correct single-backslash output).
Write 4 backslash characters in the JS source at all 4 occurrences so the
runtime string matches the files' real bytes.

* docs(#4619): note the safe_resume_gate arithmetic growth in the test header

The emitted-attribution gate flags execute-phase.md growing 91253 -> 91846
bytes (593 bytes). The growth is the fix: the safe_resume_gate and TDD RED
block now derive PHASE_INT/PHASE_FRAC before computing PHASE_N, so a
decimal/N-segment phase number (e.g. 01.1, 2.3.1) zero-strips its leading
integer segment via base-10 arithmetic instead of forcing the whole value
through $((10#...)) and hitting a hard shell syntax error on the first dot.

A blank line previously separated the Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth trailer from
the Co-Authored-By trailer below it, which splits git's trailer-block
detection: only the last contiguous non-blank run of Key: Value lines at the
end of a commit message is recognized as trailers, so the growth ack was
silently read as ordinary body text and the differential-attribution gate
failed with the growth unacknowledged. Joining the two trailers into one
contiguous block fixes it.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: execute-phase.md — adds PHASE_INT/PHASE_FRAC derivation to the safe_resume_gate and TDD RED commit-scope grep so a decimal/N-segment phase number zero-strips its leading integer segment via base-10 arithmetic instead of failing on a non-numeric value (#4619)

* test(#4208): replace chmod-based restore-failure injection with a root-proof git shim

`tests/commit-files-deletion.test.cjs`'s two restore-failure tests simulated
an unwritable index via a `post-index-change` hook running `chmod a-w` on
the git dir. That relies on the OS enforcing the *owner's own* permission
bits against itself, which uid 0 (a routine identity inside this repo's
Docker-based gsd-test benches) does not: every DAC check short-circuits true
for root, so the write the chmod meant to block silently succeeds, the
restore comes back clean, and the disclosure/rollback behavior under test
never actually gets exercised.

This is CLAUDE.md's own named anti-pattern for I/O-failure injection
("Cross-platform test IO-failure injection" — chmod tricks fail under root
Docker/CI). It is confirmed as the actual root cause here, not a production
defect: `src/commands.cts`'s `restoreRemovedEntries`/rollback-disclosure
logic (added by #4253, merged just before this run) was hand-traced and
manually reproduced end to end on an unprivileged workstation against a
freshly built `gsd-core/bin/lib/commands.cjs`, and it already produces
exactly the `staging_failed` + "could not be restored" / "could NOT be
restored during rollback" results both tests assert. The other
`post-index-change`-based tests in this file (a `sleep` to force a timeout;
a real `update-index` to flip a restored entry's mode) are unaffected
because neither depends on a permission check — consistent with only the
two chmod-based tests failing on the real remote run.

Replaces the chmod fixture with a fake `git` placed ahead of the real one on
PATH that fails only `update-index --add --cacheinfo` — the one call the
restore makes — unconditionally, regardless of privilege level. Every other
git invocation execs straight through to the real binary, so the rest of
each scenario (`rm --cached`, the restore's own `ls-files` verification,
etc.) is exercised exactly as before.

Passing the script as a `-c "<script>"` argv element made it subject to
Windows' CreateProcess command-line argument encoding, which silently

PR #4644's windows-latest CI shard: `1\.1` came back as `1.1`). Feeding the
same script via stdin instead removes argv entirely from the transport, so
there is nothing for Windows to re-encode. POSIX behavior is unchanged.

4cc2a466b5 fix(#4208): add --files-removed so commit --files can record a move without a directory pathspec (#4253)
* fix(#4208): add --files-removed so commit --files can record a move without a directory pathspec

`cmdCommit`'s `--files` list can stage an addition but never a deletion:
the #2014 guard skips a missing explicit entry because the filesystem
cannot tell "moved away" from "not written yet". A caller that moves a
file therefore had two forms, both wrong — a directory entry records the
move but also commits every unrelated file in that directory (a
concurrent session's in-flight todo, in the unattended execute-phase
sweep), and a file entry leaves the old path's deletion dangling with the
todo tracked at both paths.

`--files-removed <paths>` is the caller-declared delete intent. Each entry
names a file, or a directory whose tracked-but-absent files are the
removals; those paths are staged with `git rm --cached` and join the
commit pathspec. `--files` keeps its skip-if-missing contract untouched.
A file entry still present on disk fails the commit closed with the
existing staging-failure rollback; a never-tracked path is a no-op.
`--files-removed` alone is a declared scope, not the unscoped .planning/
sweep.

The dispatcher previously folded every non-flag token after `--files`
into that list, so a second list flag could not exist; each list now
runs from its flag to the next `--` token.

The execute-phase todo sweep names the moved todos on both sides from
CLOSED[@], and cleanup's archive commit moves .planning/phases/ and
.planning/quick/ under --files-removed.

Fixes #4208

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: cleanup.md — the archive commit moves phases/ and quick/ under --files-removed; the growth is one paragraph stating why those two directories must not be --files entries

* chore(#4208): set changeset fragment pr to 4253

* fix(#4208): fit execute-phase.md under the ADR-857 ceiling and re-point the #2415 guard

Three CI failures, all consequences of this PR's own change.

1. gsd-core/workflows/execute-phase.md was 93,577 bytes against the
   ADR-857 Phase 6 margin gate's <= 93,400 (hard ceiling 93,600). The
   three-line rationale comment plus the four-line array-building block
   added 318 bytes to a file that had only 141 of headroom on next.

   Move the rationale to docs/CLI-TOOLS.md -- which this PR already
   extends with the --files-removed contract, and which is where the
   ADR-857 gate wants call-site detail to live rather than in the host
   workflow -- and fold the array build onto one line. 93,577 -> 93,372.

2/3. tests/close-phase-todos-stage-deletion.test.cjs pinned the #2415
   guarantee to its old MECHANISM: it regex-matched the literal
   .planning/todos/{completed,pending}/ directory pathspecs in the
   commit --files list. This PR deliberately replaced those with named
   files (a directory entry also committed an unrelated todo a
   concurrent session dropped in mid-close), so the guard failed on a
   change it should have accepted.

   Re-point it at the new mechanism without weakening it: assert the
   ADDED array reaches --files, the REMOVED array reaches
   --files-removed, STATE.md is still committed, and -- newly -- that
   the two arrays are built from $COMPLETED_DIR and $PENDING_DIR
   respectively. Verified by negative control: deleting
   --files-removed "${REMOVED[@]}" from the workflow still fails the
   test, so the #2415 regression remains caught.

Note for the merge queue: #4233 also grows execute-phase.md (+114). The
two are additive -- different regions, no textual conflict -- so with
both landed the file reaches ~93,486, over the 93,400 margin though
under the 93,600 hard ceiling. Whichever merges second will need to
reclaim ~86 bytes.

* fix(#4208): reclaim execute-phase.md bytes so the PR is net-neutral under the ADR-857 margin

Rebasing onto next surfaced the byte-gate collision flagged earlier on
this PR: #4284 grew execute-phase.md by 95 bytes (93,259 -> 93,354),
so this PR's +113 landed at 93,467 against the <= 93,400 margin in
tests/claude-orchestration.test.cjs.

Compact the close_phase_todos step this PR already edits -- drop the
PHASE_NUM indirection, fold the normaliser and the match guard, print
the closed list with one printf, shorten the step's prose -- without
touching the mechanism the #2415 guard pins (ADDED/REMOVED arrays, the
plain mv). 93,467 -> 93,349: 5 bytes under the base, so the PR no
longer spends any of next's 46 bytes of headroom.

- a submodule gitlink (mode 160000) whose directory was deleted by hand
  lists like a file and was `rm --cached` with no .gitmodules cleanup;
- a skip-worktree path is never materialised by a cone-mode sparse
  checkout, so a directory entry over a sparse-excluded tree dropped
  that whole tree from the index;
- an assume-unchanged path's worktree state is not something git
  itself consults;
- an intent-to-add entry (`git add -N`) renders as a plain cached entry
  on the empty blob, yet nothing tracked exists to remove and no
  rollback can restore the flag.

The index listing now carries each entry's `ls-files -v -s` tag, mode
and stage. Only a plain cached (H), stage-0, non-gitlink entry is a
removal candidate; every other state is left alone under a directory
entry (exactly like a present file) and fails closed when named
directly, with the state in the error. "Named directly" is decided on
RESOLVED paths, not strings -- realpath of the longest existing prefix
with the absent tail re-appended: an absolute path, `./x`, `--cwd`, or a
symlinked spelling of the tree (macOS `/var` ->
`/private/var`, where `process.cwd()` is the real path and the caller's
absolute path is not -- CI on this round's first push) all resolve to the
same entry, where a string compare against git's cwd-relative output
silently took the directory polarity (pre-push review, driven; the
symlink case is driven with an aliased fixture directory). The enumeration's domain is what
`ls-files -v -s` can emit for an index entry, stated at the classifier.

The third Major -- on an unborn HEAD a successful `rm --cached` was
never rolled back when a later entry failed -- is fixed differently
from the review's suggestion. Pushing the path into stagedPaths would
put it on the commit pathspec, which a root commit refuses ("pathspec
did not match", driven), and `git reset -- <path>` cannot restore an
entry with no HEAD anyway. Instead every index entry this call removes
is recorded (mode, blob) before the `rm` and put back with
`update-index --cacheinfo` on rollback. That also restores a
caller-pre-staged blob at a removed path exactly, where a reset would
have silently replaced it with HEAD's version. The rollback is
best-effort, as the addition-side reset already was, and the docs say
so.

Eight tests: gitlink under a directory entry, named directly, and named
by absolute path; skip-worktree both forms; intent-to-add both forms;
assume-unchanged named; unborn-HEAD partial failure restores the
removal; pre-staged blob survives the rollback.

* fix(#4208): a boolean flag inside a commit path list no longer ends the list

Review minor on #4253: collectList stopped at the next `--` token, so a
positional wedged between a boolean flag and the next list flag
(`--files a --amend b --files-removed c`) was claimed by neither list
and silently dropped -- a regression in shape against the old
slice-to-end parse, which filtered `--` tokens and kept `b`. No current
call site interleaves that way, but the gap was real.

A list now runs to the next LIST flag (`--files` / `--files-removed`)
and skips boolean flags on the way, and a REPEATED list flag merges
its runs (`--files a --files b` -> [a, b]) as the slice-to-end parse
did -- a first cut stopped at the repeat and dropped `b`, the same
silent-drop shape one level over (pre-post comment audit). The only
change #4208 makes to parsing is that a second list flag can exist.
Tests: STATE.md wedged between --no-verify and --files-removed lands
in the commit; both runs of a repeated --files reach it.

* test(#4208): drive the reappearance window with a post-index-change hook

Review nit on #4253: the defensive re-check for a file recreated between
the absence test and `git rm --cached` -- the concurrent-session race
this PR's own changeset names -- had no test. git fires
post-index-change the moment `rm --cached` writes the index, so a hook
that copies the file back exactly then exercises the window
deterministically. The call reports staging_failed / "reappeared on
disk", commits nothing, and the rollback restores the removed entry.

* fix(#4208): restore a staged removal when the call records nothing

A `git rm --cached` that succeeds mutates the index whether or not a commit
follows. Only the staging-failure rollback put those entries back, so a call
that reached `nothing_to_commit` reported no state change while the removal sat
staged -- riding along on the caller's next commit.

The review named the unborn-HEAD, removal-only shape. Keying on `headExists`
would have fixed half of it: the guard also fires with a real HEAD when the
removed path is index-only (added, never committed), because `diff HEAD` reads
clean with the path absent on both sides. Both shapes now restore, at both
`nothing_to_commit` exits. The failure exits are deliberately left alone --
they report a failure rather than no-change, and the addition side leaves its
own staged paths there too.

* refactor(#4208): lift declared-removal staging out of the cmdCommit hotspot

`cmdCommit` was a critical-risk hotspot before this flag existed, and #4208 had
inlined another ~270 lines into it. `stageDeclaredRemovals(cwd, removedDeclared)`
now owns the index-state classification, path canonicalisation and entry
recording, returning the pathspec entries and the recorded removals its caller
merges.

Pure motion: no branch, message or probe changed. Only the two accumulators
became local names, and `restoreRemovedEntries` stays with the caller because
the exits that restore are the caller's. cmdCommit 888 -> 625 lines here; the
extracted helper is 277.

(Figures corrected after publication: an earlier version of this message said
854 -> 591 and claimed the result was below cmdCommit's pre-#4208 shape. Both
were wrong -- the count came from a faulty brace scanner, and `next`'s cmdCommit
is 581, so this is above it, not below.)

* test(#4208): property-test the two-list commit parser

RULESET.TESTS.property-based-testing asks a parser for at least one property
test asserting a domain invariant; `collectList` had only hand-picked examples,
one per shape a review round had already broken.

Hoisted it to module scope as `collectListFlagValues` and exported it in the
file's existing exported-for-tests convention -- a parser reachable only by
spawning the CLI can be tested one example at a time and no faster.

Three properties over generated argv: every positional lands in exactly the run
open at it whatever the flag order or count; no positional after the first list
flag is dropped or double-claimed; and with `--files-removed` absent the parse
equals the pre-#4208 slice-to-end parse. Controlled against two mutants -- a run
ending at any `--` token, and a repeated list flag that does not merge -- each
of which the properties catch.

* test(#4208): pin cleanup.md's archive commit to --files-removed

execute-phase.md's rewrite is pinned by the #2415 guard in this file;
cleanup.md's equivalent was not, so reverting its routing would have been
caught by nothing -- the mechanism's unit tests never read this file and pass
either way.

Asserts the two archived directories are under --files-removed and NOT under
--files (where a directory entry sweeps in a concurrent session's in-flight
writes), and that the destinations and STATE.md stay on the additive half.
Controlled by restoring the pre-#4208 sweep, which fails it.

* test(#4208): pin that a symlink to a directory is one tracked path

Review of #4253 read the `lstatSync(...).isDirectory()` test as a
symlink-following defect. Driving it says the opposite: git tracks the link as
a single blob (mode 120000) and does not traverse it, so the tracked paths
"under" it live at the real directory and were never named by the caller.
Following the link would stage those -- the directory sweep #4208 exists to
remove -- while the named entry still sat present on disk.

Pinned rather than changed, with the premise driven in the test body. Swapping
`lstatSync` for `statSync` -- the prescription as written -- fails it.

* fix(#4208): report a removal the call could not put back

Round review of this round found the restore itself unchecked: the helper
ignored `update-index`'s exit code, so a FAILED restore still reported
`nothing_to_commit` -- the same false "no state changed" the restore exists to
prevent, surviving one level down on the restore-failure path.

It now returns a boolean. The two no-change exits report `staging_failed`
naming the paths left staged; the staging-failure rollback still ignores it,
deliberately, because it is already reporting a failure and an unwritable index
is usually the failure being reported.

Driven with a post-index-change hook that makes the git dir unwritable the
moment `rm --cached` lands, so the restore cannot take its lock. Reverting both
guards fails the test.

* fix(#4208): disclose a removal the rollback could not restore

Round review refuted the reasoning behind leaving the rollback path's restore
unchecked. The claim was that this exit is already reporting a failure, so the
restore's result adds nothing. The counterexample is the ordinary case: the
reported failure is usually a DIFFERENT cause -- a contradictory declaration, a
reappeared path -- so a caller reading `failures` sees only that cause and
learns nothing about the removal still sitting in its index.

The rollback now appends a disclosure entry per un-restored removal, naming the
path. The reason and `file` still report the failure that caused the rollback;
the disclosure is additive.

Also moves the restore-failure test's chmod into a `finally`: `t.after` runs
AFTER the parent `afterEach`, so a throw before it left the fixture undeletable.

Both driven; reverting the disclosure fails the new test.

* fix(#4208): decide index state by observation, never by an exit code

The restore added two commits earlier keyed both its record decision and its
success verdict on git's exit code. An exit code answers "did the command
succeed", never "did the index change" -- execGit collapses a spawn timeout to
a non-zero exit, and a killed git can already have written the index. Round
review drove four failures from that one assumption, in both directions:

  - a failed `rm` still contributed an entry, so the rollback disclosed a
    removal that was never staged (stale index.lock);
  - a timed-out `rm` whose write DID land contributed none, so a real mutation
    was neither restored nor disclosed;
  - a timed-out `update-index` whose write landed reported failure, publishing
    a "could NOT be restored" disclosure that was false;
  - and the read-back that replaced it omitted `-z`, so core.quotePath rendered
    `café.md` as `"caf\303\251.md"` and an exactly-restored entry read as not
    restored -- the same quoting defect this PR already fixed for `preStaged`.

Everything now observes the index. A failed `rm` re-reads `ls-files -z` for the
path: gone means this call owns the removal and records it; still there means
nothing was staged; a probe that cannot answer becomes its own failure entry
rather than an assumption. The restore verifies the same way, comparing the
WHOLE entry (mode, blob, stage), because `--cacheinfo` restores all three and a
path-only test accepts an entry that came back as something else.

The verdict is three-valued -- `restored` / `not-restored` / `unverified` --
and the unverified wording says the restore could not be VERIFIED rather than
that it failed. The rm's own failure is pushed ahead of any probe diagnostic so
a timed-out removal keeps `timed_out: true` and its own message as the reported
cause.

Five regression cases, each negative-controlled against the shape it pins.

* fix(#4208): treat a declared removal path as a path, not a pathspec

An index path handed back to git is parsed as a PATHSPEC, and the removal side
handed several back. Three driven harms, all of them the sweep-in this flag
exists to remove, arriving through the operand rather than through a directory
entry:

  - a tracked file literally named `.planning/*.md` made `rm --cached` GLOB: it
    removed `peer.md` and `stays.md` too, only the declared entry was recorded,
    so the rollback restored one of three and the other two rode out as staged
    deletions the result disclosed nowhere;
  - the same name reached `git commit -- <paths>`, which globbed and committed
    an undeclared `M peer.md` alongside the declared removal;
  - and the intent-to-add probe (`diff --cached` over the path) matched a
    STAGED PEER instead of itself, so an `add -N` entry was misclassified as
    ordinary content, removed, and restored by `--cacheinfo` -- which cannot
    restore the intent flag. It came back as a real staged addition.

Every operand on this path is now `:(literal)`: the `rm`, both index probes,
the intent-to-add probe, the restore read-back, the entry-level `ls-files` /
`ls-tree`, and -- for the REMOVAL-derived entries only -- the downstream
`ls-files` / dry-run / `diff HEAD` / `commit` pathspec. `--files` entries keep
whatever pathspec behaviour they have today; that is not this change's to
alter. `:(literal)` still resolves a directory to its descendants (driven), so
the directory form is unchanged.

Closes what an earlier cut of this commit declared as a residual: a filename
beginning with `:` is now removable end to end, because the commit pathspec no
longer reinterprets it.

Also fixes a MINOR from the same review: cleanup.md's contract test checked the
destinations' position relative to `--files-removed` but never that `--files`
was present at all, so deleting the flag still passed.

Un-literalising the seven sites fails three of the new tests.

* fix(#4208): scope the rollback to the caller's own name space

Round review drove a rollback that destroyed the caller's own staged work. Two
causes, one of them pre-existing:

  - `git diff --cached` prints REPO-relative paths whatever the cwd, while
    `stagedPaths` holds the caller's cwd-relative names. In a project nested
    inside its repo (`<repo>/sub/.planning/...`) the two name spaces never
    intersect, so `preStaged` matched NOTHING, every path landed in `toUnstage`,
    and the reset unstaged a caller-staged deletion and modification that this
    call had never touched. `--relative` makes the two sets comparable, and is a
    no-op when the project IS the repo root. This governs the `--files` side too
    and predates this flag.
  - the rollback's `reset` was the last place a removal-derived name reached git
    as a bare pathspec; it takes `asPathspec` like every other site.

Driven on a nested fixture; dropping `--relative` fails the new test.

* test(#4208): gate six fixtures that Windows cannot construct

CI's `test (windows-latest, 24, shard 2/3)` went red on this round. Two
primitives the new fixtures rely on do not exist on Windows, both driven on a
real Windows host rather than inferred:

  - a filename containing `*` or `:` cannot be created at all (`IOException` /
    `FileNotFoundException`), which is four of the pathspec fixtures;
  - `chmod` cannot make a directory unwritable — a write into a ReadOnly
    directory succeeds — so the two restore-failure fixtures cannot drive the
    failure they exist to drive.

Each is skipped on win32 with its measured reason, in the repo's existing
`{ skip: process.platform === 'win32' ? '<reason>' : false }` form. The
behaviours they pin are platform-independent; only the fixtures are not.

The remaining Windows red was mine, not the platform's: `git rev-parse :<path>`

rejected it as an ambiguous argument. The hook in the same test already used
the slash form.

Not gated — the behaviour it pins is portable; only the argument was not.

Regenerated with `--target macos --write`; the platform tier was already in

did not surface it.

* fix: isolate lint-vendored-deps-manifest.test.cjs's fixRow tests from the real vendor file

Genuine, pre-existing defect found and fixed per this repo's no-defer policy
(discovered while investigating a real CI failure during this PR's own
merge attempt, user-directed investigation -- not deferred to a separate
issue since it was actively blocking work and root-caused with concrete
evidence, not speculation).

Root cause: fixRow(row) (scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs) unconditionally
does fs.copyFileSync(upstreamCjs, vendoredCjs) as its first line. All three
tests in the #4573 describe block called fixRow(row) with the REAL js-yaml
row, so all three wrote to the real, shared gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/
js-yaml.cjs -- a file other test files' require() calls can read at any
moment, since node --test runs files concurrently in this repo.
fs.copyFileSync's write is not atomic against a concurrent reader on every
filesystem; a concurrent require() elsewhere caught the file mid-overwrite
and read a truncated file, crashing an entirely unrelated test
(m9-statelock-write-error-orphan.test.cjs) with a SyntaxError.

Confirmed via two real CI log fetches, not assumed: the exact same shard
grouping (same 308 files) ran clean ~90 minutes earlier during PR #4615's
own final merge CI, with the identical #3660 reap-fix code already present
-- ruling out a deterministic connection to that change and confirming a
genuine, non-deterministic timing race in this pre-existing test design.

Fix: all three tests now redirect row.vendoredCjs to a private os.tmpdir()
path via a cloned row object before calling fixRow, so the real vendored
file is never touched. upstreamCjs stays pointed at the real node_modules
copy (read-only, safe to share).

* fix: also isolate fixRow's package.json pin-rewrite from the real file

Review finding (major) on the previous race-condition fix: fixRow's pin
-rewrite path still hardcoded path.join(ROOT, 'package.json'), so the third
#4573 test still wrote the real, shared package.json -- read at module
top-level by dozens of other test files, the same concurrent-file race
class already fixed for the vendored .cjs copy.

Adds an optional pkgRoot parameter (defaults to the real ROOT) threaded
through readPinState/checkRow/fixRow -- fully backward-compatible, every
existing call site (the CLI --fix path, any other caller) is unaffected
since the default is unchanged. The pin-rewrite test now builds an isolated
temp root (its own package.json + node_modules/js-yaml/package.json) and
passes it explicitly, so the real package.json is never touched either.

* fix: use helpers.cleanup instead of raw fs.rmSync in test cleanup

CI caught it: local/no-raw-rmsync-in-tests flagged the three t.after temp-dir
cleanup calls added for the fixRow isolation fix. helpers.cleanup() carries
the Windows-EBUSY retry budget (maxRetries/retryDelay) that raw fs.rmSync
lacks.

2cefa5a5ac enhance(#4139): Phase 8 — the toggle becomes discoverable, and the ledger closes (#4587)
* enhance(#4139): Phase 8 — the toggle becomes discoverable, and the ledger closes

ADR-4139's final phase. workflow.compact_content already defaulted to false
(Phase 1's buildNewProjectConfig hardcoded default), but nothing surfaced it:
/gsd-new-project never asked, and /gsd-settings/config had no toggle path for
an already-initialized project — config-set/config-get were the only route.

new-project.md gains a fourth question in the existing Round 2 AskUserQuestion
array (grouped with the other general-workflow-behavior toggles, not the
per-agent capability questions above it) and threads compact_content into the
config-new-project CLI JSON literal. settings.md mirrors the exact pattern
every other non-capability workflow.* key already follows: read_current bullet,
question block, update_config write, the safe-merge non-capability-keys list,
save_as_defaults, and the confirm summary table — seven edits, zero new
src/*.cts code, since Phase 1's merge logic is a generic passthrough. Its
success_criteria question-count ("24 settings") is bumped to 25 to match the
now-25-entry main AskUserQuestion batch.

settings-advanced.md deliberately does NOT get a duplicate question: no other
boolean toggle in this repo is asked in both settings.md and
settings-advanced.md, and there's no reason to start with this one.

docs/CONFIGURATION.md, docs/USER-GUIDE.md, and a new docs/features/4139-compact-
content.md fragment (regenerated into docs/FEATURES.md) document the toggle.

ADR-4139 itself: Status flips Proposed -> Accepted, the acceptance-criteria
section becomes a guard ledger — a 13-row table covering all 12 of #4139's
original checkboxes plus the shipped-content guard criterion, each with real
evidence (the merged PR that satisfied it, fetched via `gh issue view
--json closedByPullRequestsReferences` rather than asserted from phase
numbers) — and both "Open questions for the implementation phases" are
resolved rather than left dangling: discuss-phase was never converted to
spine+detail shape (verified: no detail/ subdir exists) — a genuine gap, not a
reasoned decline; the disjointness check is confirmed line-based by reading
compact-content-split.cjs's normalizeNonTrivialLines directly.

Orthogonal review (isolated Standards/Spec code-review + security-review
sub-agents) found and this fixes two real defects: the changeset fragment's
body didn't match CONTRIBUTING.md's single em-dash-sentence format (was
multi-sentence prose naming implementation file paths); and settings.md's own
success_criteria still said "24 settings" after the new question pushed the
main batch to 25. Also fixed, found by the Spec pass while confirming
commands/gsd/settings.md correctly needed no sync edit: that file and its
skills/gsd-settings/SKILL.md twin both still described "Interactive 5-question
prompt (model, research, plan_check, verifier, branching)", stale since long
before this phase (the batch has had far more than 5 questions for a while) —
replaced with a description that names the current set without hardcoding a
count that will drift again.

gsd-test (real run, sha 1da78fe2) caught a third real regression the local
sweep missed: new-project.md is a registered spine+detail split for Phase 4's
token-reduction benchmark (scripts/benchmark-compact-content.cjs), and the new
question's +167 tokens drifted the committed baseline
(tests/fixtures/compact-content-benchmark-baseline.json). The benchmark itself
is designed never to fail CI on drift, but the test asserting the COMMITTED
baseline is currently non-drifted correctly caught it. Regenerated via
`node scripts/benchmark-compact-content.cjs --write`; re-verified --check now
reports "up to date" and the test file passes 27/27.

Closes #4408.
Closes #4139.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: new-project.md — new 4th Round-2 AskUserQuestion entry (Compact Content, #4139) plus the config-new-project CLI JSON field and explanatory sentence; a new opt-in toggle needs new prose.

7fe440a838 fix(#4488): report state update as successful when the value is already correct (#4581)
* fix(#4488): report state update as successful when the value is already correct

`cmdStateUpdate` unconditionally overwrote `updateCore`'s own `updated:true`
signal with `reconcileReportedFields`'s disk-diff result. That diff reports
`[]` -- by design -- whenever `readModifyWriteStateMd`'s #948 no-op guard
fires because the transform's output was byte-identical to the input, which
happens precisely when the requested value already equals what's on disk.
The field genuinely was found and matched; there was simply nothing left to
change. Collapsing that into the same `false`/"not found" response as a
genuine miss produced an actively wrong diagnostic message and a silent
same-day no-op in gsd-ship + gsd-extract-learnings, which both write
`Last Activity` to today's date.

* fix(#4488): untrack tdd-red-evidence.cjs, completing its ADR-457 gitignore migration

Bundled discovery from this PR's own CI run: tests/lint-compiled-artifact-
sync.test.cjs's full tsc compile (which runs whenever ANY compiled artifact
remains tracked) SIGTERM'd under shard contention. gsd-core/bin/lib/tdd-red-
evidence.cjs (introduced by #3770/PR #4279) was the sole remaining tracked
artifact -- a tenth, later, separate instance of the #2657/#2653
migration-gap defect class this test file's closed nine-item list doesn't
cover. Untracked it and added the .gitignore entry, same fix shape as the
original nine. This eliminates the slow tsc-compile path entirely (verified:
0.1s vs ~7s locally) rather than papering over a timeout. Added a generic
regression test asserting the tracked set is fully empty.

37b965c0d1 enhance(#4139): Phase 7 — the agent-skill seam picks the payload in code (#4553)
* enhance(#4139): Phase 7 — the agent-skill seam picks the payload in code

ADR-4139 stream 2. The non-Claude `#2454` persona fallback in cmdAgentSkills
(src/init.cts) now selects between a canonical agents/<name>.md and a
token-minimized agents/<name>.compact.md sibling based on
workflow.compact_content, resolved in code (a real function call with a real
exit code) rather than a prose config-get gate — the same precedent stream 1's
spine/detail split established for a load-bearing seam, applied here because
this seam already runs through TypeScript instead of an eager @-include.

A missing compact sibling falls back to the canonical persona and discloses
the fallback in the served payload itself (a leading HTML-comment provenance
line), so the Done-when contract — compact when on, canonical when off, never
silent or empty — holds even for an agent nobody has compacted yet.

Authored a .compact.md sibling for all 35 shipped agents (agents/gsd-*.md),
each an independent, complete rewrite (not an extraction — nothing is "moved"
the way spine/detail moves text) that preserves frontmatter, every @-include,
every output-format contract, and every guardrail verbatim while cutting
restatement and verbose framing. Verified mechanically: every pair registers
(a canonical sibling exists), every compact file is strictly smaller, and the
full @-include set matches canonical's — including which references are
standalone eager-load lines versus inline prose mentions, since demoting one
to inline changes what the host actually substitutes.

Traced the install path before writing any code (.gsd/phase/.../40-design.md):
stageAgentsForRuntimeWithConverter glob-copies every agents/*.md file with no
stem filtering under the default full profile, so the new .compact.md files
install for free with zero installer changes — matching issue #4407's stated
scope. A tiered agent profile that doesn't stage a compact sibling degrades
through the same fallback-with-provenance path already required for an
unauthored one, so no installer change is needed there either.

Extends tests/helpers/compact-content-variant.cjs with an AGENTS_ROOT export
(deliberately not folded into DEFAULT_VARIANT_ROOTS, since agent variants are
reached by a generic code construction rather than a literal path in prose,
and checkReachability's markdown-search shape has nothing to find there).
Reachability is instead proven behaviorally: tests/agent-skills.test.cjs's new
"#4407 compact payload selection" describe block spawns gsd_run agent-skills
against real compact/canonical fixture pairs and asserts on the served
payload, which can only pass if the seam genuinely wires through.

Fixed a pre-existing test whose agents/*.md glob incidentally matched the new
.compact.md siblings (tests/agent-skills.test.cjs's Skill-frontmatter drift
guard) and added the 35 new agents/*.compact.md entries to docs/INVENTORY.md's
roster, both real, unrelated-to-content defects the new files' mere existence
surfaced.

Regenerated: install-tree fixtures (19 runtimes now ship 35 more agent files
under the full profile), INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json, and the variant-swap token
benchmark baseline (npm run benchmark:compact-content-variants --write).

Closes #4407.

* fix(#4407): apply orthogonal review findings from the compact-payload seam

Standards axis of /code-review: extracted readNonEmptyFileOrNull(filePath)
to collapse the duplicated read-and-empty-check shape between the compact
and canonical branches in cmdAgentSkills, and updated the adjacent comment
enumerating flat JSON extras to name agent_payload_variant alongside
source/degraded (added by the prior commit, comment left stale).

Security review and the Spec axis found no defects requiring a code change;
their non-blocking observations (a pre-existing, unmodified path-construction
pattern; the reasoned, documented substitution of a behavioral test for the
literal reachability check) are recorded in
.gsd/phase/enhance-4407-agent-skill-seam/60-review.json.

* fix(#4407): repo-wide roster/cap fixes surfaced by shipping .compact.md agents

Root-caused via a real gsd-test run (93 failures) rather than guessing which
tests glob agents/ naively. Two classes of defect, both genuine:

1. Identity-roster confusion (11 files/areas): many tests and one production
   script derive "the set of GSD agents" from `readdirSync(agentsDir).filter(f
   => f.endsWith('.md'))`, which incidentally matched the new .compact.md
   variant siblings too — a compact file is a rendering of an EXISTING agent
   identity, not a new one. Fixed at the shared root
   (tests/helpers/agent-roster.cjs's listAgentFiles, which several tests
   already consolidated on) and at each independent glob that didn't use it:
   agent-size-budget.test.cjs (tier-cap lookup now strips the .compact suffix
   before checking XL/LARGE membership, so a compact file inherits its
   canonical sibling's tier instead of silently falling through to DEFAULT),
   agent-skills-bootstrap.test.cjs, check-contract-drift.test.cjs (the actual
   script, not just its test), codex-config.test.cjs (confirmed directly
   against generateCodexAgentToml that a compact role's derived sandbox_mode
   is byte-identical to its canonical sibling's before excluding it — not
   assumed), and copilot-install.test.cjs (two counts that legitimately DO
   need both files — an installed-file count and a full-conversion smoke test
   — fixed to expect 70, not stay pinned to 35).

   no-bare-gsd-tools-command-position.test.cjs needed the opposite kind of fix:
   two compact files reproduce descriptive prose already allowlisted at their
   canonical file's line number; added matching entries at the compact files'
   own line numbers rather than excluding them from the scan (a genuine bare
   gsd-tools command-position bug in a compact file would be as real a defect
   as in canonical).

2. A hard, non-ackable cap (found via emitted-attribution.test.cjs's real-tree
   run): six agents' compact renditions (gsd-debugger, gsd-executor,
   gsd-phase-researcher, gsd-plan-checker, gsd-planner, gsd-verifier) exceed
   the 32,768-byte NEW_FILE_CAP (ADR-1610) even after aggressive compaction —
   confirmed structural, not a compaction-quality gap: each is dominated by
   content this phase's own rules require verbatim (the ~2.6 KB gsd_run
   bootstrap preamble runtime-launcher-parity.test.cjs requires inlined in
   every agent that calls gsd_run, output-format contracts, guardrails).
   ADR-4139's prescribed remedy (spine + lazily-read parts) has no landing
   spot in cmdAgentSkills's single-file synchronous read. Removed these 6
   compact files rather than ship an over-cap file or invent a multi-part
   read mechanism out of scope for this phase; recorded by name with the
   reason in .gsd/phase/enhance-4407-agent-skill-seam/40-design.md and
   50-test-matrix.md, per #4407's own "or explicitly recorded as not worth
   covering" allowance. Their canonical personas are served correctly today
   via the fallback-with-disclosed-provenance path this phase's own Done-when
   #2 already requires — 29 of 35 agents now have a compact variant.

Also fixes an unrelated, genuinely pre-existing defect this gsd-test run
surfaced: gsd-core/workflows/execute-plan.md sat 21 bytes over its own
DEFAULT-tier hard cap (40,960 bytes) at the branch point, before any change in
this PR touched it — confirmed via `git show <merge-base>:...execute-plan.md
| wc -c`. Per CLAUDE.md's no-deferral rule, fixed inline rather than filed:
two meaning-preserving trims in the <success_criteria> block (a repeated
parenthetical replaced with a same-exception reference; one redundant
qualifier dropped) bring it to 40,940 bytes.

Regenerated install-tree fixtures, INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json, and the variant
benchmark baseline to reflect the 6 removed files. Docs/INVENTORY.md's 6
now-orphaned roster rows removed alongside them.

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

* fix(#4407): make .compact.md-aware roster checks resilient to partial coverage

Round 2 of the gsd-test-driven roster fixes: two checks assumed every agent
has a compact sibling (true for 29 of 35 after the NEW_FILE_CAP exception),
breaking once 6 stems legitimately have none.

- tests/agent-classification-parity.test.cjs: the INVENTORY.md parser was
  picking up the "### Compact Payload Variants" subsection's rows as
  phantom/uncounted entries in the primary/advanced/inventory-only
  classification this test validates — a compact row documents an existing
  agent's alternate rendition and never gets its own AGENTS.md heading, so it
  was never meant to participate in that classification. Excluded at the
  parser, not per-assertion.
- tests/copilot-install.test.cjs: the derived expected-file-list generator
  assumed every listAgentFiles() stem has a .compact.md source sibling;
  checks disk per stem now instead.

ba26aa065d docs(#4467): document fallow's structural-pre-pass has no upper-bound scope (#4574)
* docs(#4467): document fallow's structural-pre-pass has no upper-bound scope

structural-pre-pass.md's FALLOW_SCOPE_ARGS=(--changed-since "$FALLOW_BASE")
derives a correct, phase-anchored LOWER bound (lockstep with Tier 3's own
scope step, #3995), but fallow's --changed-since is one-sided by design --
verified against fallow 2.70.0's own --help: the only other scoping flags
are --changed-workspaces (workspace selection, not a file range) and
--diff-file (its own help text scopes it to line-range refinement within
the hot-path-touched verdict, not general file selection; gsd-core never
uses it). Reviewing an earlier phase after a later one has landed pulls
the later phase's files into the earlier phase's structural audit.

Not fixable inside this file: fixing fallow itself is a third-party
concern, and working around it (e.g. auditing from a temporary worktree
checked out at the phase tip) is disproportionate machinery for what is
supplementary structural-analysis context, not a blocking gate -- both
routes the issue's own analysis already ruled out. Documented the
asymmetry at the point the scope is derived instead, so a future reader
does not assume this step's tip agrees with Tier 3's just because the
base does.

No regression test: documentation-only, no runtime behavior change.

A prior revision of this commit carried an Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth
trailer for this growth -- gsd-test's own emitted-attribution check
rejected it as stale ("written or reworded in THIS diff, but nothing
here needed them"), meaning this file (nested under
gsd-core/workflows/code-review/steps/, unlike a top-level
gsd-core/workflows/*.md file) is not tracked by that specific growth
conservation law. Removed the now-confirmed-unnecessary trailer rather
than guess again -- the test's own verdict is authoritative here, not
a re-derivation of its tracked-path rules.

59da9f016b fix(#4466): bound quick.md's post-execute review scope tip at the task's own last commit (#4571)
* fix(#4466): bound quick.md's post-execute review scope tip at the task's own last commit

The review-scoping step computed CHANGED_FILES as `git diff --name-only
"${DIFF_BASE}..HEAD"`. DIFF_BASE is correctly bound to the quick task's
start (via the oldest QUICK_COMMITS entry's parent), but the tip was bare
HEAD -- unbounded. Anything landing on the shared tree between the task's
own commits and this review step running (a worktree merge-back, another
session sharing the tree) got folded into the quick task's own review
scope.

QUICK_COMMITS (newest-first) already holds the correct tip as its first
line -- read QUICK_TIP from the value already computed, diff against
that instead of HEAD. No new derivation, no new git call.

Added tests/quick-review-scope-tip-bound.test.cjs: extracts the scoping
fence verbatim from quick.md and runs it against a real git fixture
matching the issue's own scenario (quick task's own commit, then a later
unrelated commit on the shared tree). Manually verified watch-it-fail
(bare HEAD includes the unrelated file) / watch-it-pass (bounded tip
excludes it) via direct bash execution before wiring the test file,
since this repo blocks local node --test.

Independent code review caught one drive-by finding: an allow-test-rule
marker copied from a sibling test's pattern was unnecessary here (and
there) -- local/no-source-grep's looksLikeSourcePath only matches
readFileSync targets ending in .cjs/.cts/.js/.mjs/.mts/.ts, never .md,
so the rule can never fire regardless of the marker. Confirmed by
reading eslint-rules/no-source-grep.cjs directly; removed.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: quick.md — the fix adds a QUICK_TIP line and its explanatory comment; not a regeneration artifact, a hand-authored bug fix.

d3e3a8f535 fix(#4460): restore compact-file reachability + fix test stdout capture
Two more gsd-test-surfaced findings:

1. The previous execute-plan.md trim removed the literal
   `summary.compact.md` filename mention, breaking
   tests/compact-content-variant-guard.test.cjs's reachability check
   (ADR-4139 Phase 6): every registered .compact.md variant must be
   named by at least one workflow "spine" file, and execute-plan.md was
   apparently the only spine naming this one. Restored the bare
   filename (kept the shortened surrounding wording) -- read
   tests/helpers/compact-content-variant.cjs's checkReachability/
   isUnprefixedMatch directly to confirm the fix rather than guessing.
   40926 bytes, still 34 under the size cap.

2. The redesigned test (previous commit) still failed: both tiers'
   diagnostic `echo`/`printf "Warning: ..."` lines were mixing into the
   captured stdout the assertions parse as the file list, so
   "--files=src/alpha.js" appeared to produce 2 lines instead of 1.
   Wrapped both tier fences in a `{ ...; } > /dev/null` brace group
   (not a subshell -- REVIEW_FILES still persists to the enclosing
   shell) so only the final printf reaches stdout. Manually re-verified
   both cases against a real git fixture before re-running the suite.

db7a349a8c fix(#4460): trim execute-plan.md under its size budget (unrelated regression)
gsd-test surfaced a SEPARATE, unrelated failure while re-verifying this
branch: tests/workflow-size-budget.test.cjs found execute-plan.md at
40981 bytes, 21 over the 40960 DEFAULT hard cap. Root-caused (not
assumed): already-merged PR #4540 (enhance(#4139), unrelated to
#4460/#4459/#4461) added two near-identical explanatory parentheticals
about .compact.md template variants across two nearby steps
(user_setup, create_summary), pushing the file over. Confirmed directly
against origin/next independent of any merge with this branch --
`next` itself already carries this.

This branch's fork point predated PR #4540's merge, so gsd-test's
merge-testing against the current next only now surfaced it (merged
origin/next into this branch in a separate commit first -- 0 conflicts,
after discovering and fixing that this worktree's git clone was
SHALLOW, via `git fetch --unshallow`, which is what made a plain `git
merge origin/next` fail with "refusing to merge unrelated histories").

Fixed by trimming the SECOND (of two near-identical) parentheticals in
the create_summary step to a short back-reference to the first -- same
information, no duplication, no cap raised (the test explicitly warns
against raising it). 40931 bytes, 29 under the cap.

5946926b94 fix(#4460): rework test to not depend on Tier 2's broken bash (#4461)
A fresh code-review pass found the test's original approach (concatenate
and execute Tier 1 + Tier 2 + Tier 3 verbatim, matching the issue's own
reproduction) cannot run: Tier 2's own fence -- untouched by this diff --
is not currently parseable bash. Two unescaped `"` inside its embedded
`node -e "..."` regex literal (`raw.replace(/^['"]|['"]$/g, '')`)
terminate the outer double-quoted string early, which breaks bash's
PARSE of the whole concatenated script even though Tier 2's body never
executes under --files. Independently confirmed via manual extraction
and execution before accepting the finding.

This is a real, separately-filed, already-queued sibling issue (#4461,
filed by #4460's own reporter specifically to avoid folding it in here)
-- not fixed in this PR. Instead reworked the test to run only Tier 1 +
Tier 3 verbatim, seeding the Tier-2-equivalent REVIEW_FILES state
directly for the "without --files" case (documented in the module
docblock, explaining why Tier 2 isn't sourced and pointing at #4461).

Also fixed a nit from the same review pass: a code comment overstated
Tier 2's guard as "immediately above" when it's ~150 lines away.

Manually re-verified both test cases against a real git fixture with a
GNU-realpath-compatible `realpath` (matching gsd-test's Linux bench --
this Mac's BSD realpath lacks the `-m` flag Tier 1 uses, a SEPARATE
pre-existing portability gap surfaced during this check, masked on Linux
CI, not touched by this fix) before re-running the full suite.

b1c78f0d2e fix(#4460): gate Tier 3's #2666 cross-check on FILES_OVERRIDE
code-review.md states (line 144) "Skip SUMMARY/git scoping entirely when
--files is provided." Tier 2 honors this via `if [ -z "$FILES_OVERRIDE"
]`, but Tier 3's #2666 SUMMARY/diff cross-check had no FILES_OVERRIDE
reference at all -- reached via `elif [ -n "$DIFF_BASE" ]` whenever
REVIEW_FILES was already non-empty (true under --files, since Tier 1
fills it), so it silently appended the whole phase's changed files onto
an explicit user-supplied file list. --files is documented as the
highest-precedence scoping tier (D-08) and is the flag Tier 3's own
fail-closed path recommends when no reliable diff base is found; a user
narrowing a review to two files silently got the whole phase instead,
and the reviewer agent spent its budget on files nobody asked about.

Gated the elif on the same condition Tier 2 already uses:

  elif [ -z "$FILES_OVERRIDE" ] && [ -n "$DIFF_BASE" ]; then

The issue's own narrowest suggested form, reasoned through against two
alternatives (wrapping the whole Tier-3 fence, or changing the stated
invariant instead) -- both explicitly rejected there for good reasons
concurred with after reading the surrounding code.

Added tests/code-review-tier3-files-override-scoping.test.cjs, mirroring
the issue's own verified reproduction methodology: extracts the Tier
1/2/3 fences VERBATIM from code-review.md (never reimplemented) and runs
them against a real constructed git fixture matching the issue's own
scenario exactly (5 files, a SUMMARY listing only 1). Confirms --files
stays scoped to exactly the requested file, and separately confirms the
#2666 cross-check still widens a genuinely partial SUMMARY scope when
--files is absent (proving this is a gate, not a blanket disable).

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: code-review.md — #4460 gates the Tier-3 #2666 cross-check on FILES_OVERRIDE, matching Tier 2's own guard, net +453 bytes

42c02a00c0 enhance(#3418): report real codebase drift instead of the whole repository (#4124)
* fix(#3418): write the codebase-drift baseline from code instead of agent prose

writeMappedCommit shipped correct and callerless, so no full map-codebase run ever wrote last_mapped_commit. The gate then read null and diffed HEAD against the empty tree, reporting every tracked file as newly added on every run.

Adds the stamp-codebase-map leaf verb and calls it from the map-codebase workflow and the execute-phase auto-remap path, replacing the prose instruction that asked the mapper agent to stamp its own output. An agent that concludes its work is already done skips a prose step silently, which is the failure the stamp exists to detect.

The gate now reports an absent or unresolvable baseline as skipped, with reason no-mapped-commit or unresolvable-mapped-commit, rather than as whole-repo drift. Files under .planning/ are excluded from the diff so the map's own commit does not read as seven new directories on the next run.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: map-codebase.md — adds the stamp_codebase_map step and its rationale, new workflow content this change requires

* test(#3418): cover the stamp writer and the absent-baseline gate

* docs(#3418): document how the drift baseline is written and skipped

* docs(#3418): note that a manual stamp reflows the map's whitespace

writeMappedCommit writes through platformWriteSync, which normalizes markdown whitespace on .md targets. Run in its workflow position the stamp lands on documents the mapper just wrote, so the normalization is folded into the same commit, but a hand-run stamp over an already-committed map reflows that map as a side effect. Reported on the issue thread.

* chore(#3418): add changeset fragment

Typed Changed to match the enhancement route the linked issue's label sets. The docs-required lint is satisfied by the ARCHITECTURE.md update already in this branch.

* fix(#3418): anchor the planning-artifact filter to the repo root

git diff --name-status prints repo-root-relative paths whatever the cwd, so computing the exclusion prefix against cwd yielded ".planning/" while git printed "sub/.planning/" and the filter silently matched nothing from a subdirectory.

* fix(#3418): derive the planning prefix from git, not from path arithmetic

Anchoring the exclusion prefix with path.relative() against `rev-parse --show-toplevel` broke on Windows, where os.tmpdir() hands back the 8.3 short form and git resolves the long one, so relative() produced a "../.." chain that matched nothing. `rev-parse --show-prefix` gives the cwd's root-relative prefix from the same producer as the diff paths, so the two sides cannot disagree.

* fix(#3418): take the planning lock around the codebase-map stamp

Stamping seven documents is seven frontmatter read-modify-writes, and two stampers can run at once: the full map-codebase run and the execute-phase auto-remap. Wrap the write loop in withPlanningLock, the same lock the other .planning/ writers take, so a concurrent pair cannot lose an update.

Also corrects the path-arithmetic comment, which read as if the Windows short-path hazard applied to the .planning half of the prefix. It applies to the rejected --show-toplevel alternative; both sides of the surviving relative() call are the same cwd string.

* fix(#3418): read HEAD and the map file list under the planning lock

The stamp resolved HEAD and listed the present codebase-map documents before it acquired the planning lock, so a stamper that then waited on the lock could write its now-stale sha over a newer one, or recreate a document deleted while it waited as a frontmatter-only stub. Both reads now happen inside the lock, matching the read-and-write-in-one-lock pattern config.cts and phase.cts already use. An empty --files value is refused as well instead of silently widening the stamp to all seven documents.

* fix(#3418): narrow the map stamp to the documents an update run refreshed

An "Update - only update specific documents" run reached the new stamp step with no --files narrowing, so the six documents the user did not select were stamped at HEAD and read as freshly mapped. The selection now threads through to --files, the same way the auto-remap path already does.

A bare --files (an unquoted empty shell variable drops the token) parsed to null, indistinguishable from an absent flag, so it skipped the empty-filter refusal and stamped all seven. Presence is now read off argv.

* fix(#3418): require the drift baseline to resolve to a commit, not any object

`git cat-file -t` exits 0 for a tree or blob sha and for a ref name, and `git diff <tree> HEAD` is valid, so an exit-code-only probe accepted a baseline that is not a commit and reported the resulting diff as real drift. Check the reported type instead of the exit code alone, which routes every non-commit stamp to the same `unresolvable-mapped-commit` skip.

3ad75a6d59 enhance(#4285): resolve context-monitor fire-points from .planning/config.json (#4366)
* enhance(#4285): resolve context-monitor fire-points from .planning/config.json

The monitor's WARNING (35%) and CRITICAL (25%) fire-points were module
constants, so the only way to tune them was editing gsd-context-monitor.js —
a file in the MANAGED hooks registry, whose body the next install re-stages,
silently discarding the edit. The alternative was turning the safety net off.

Both are now readable from the config block the hook already opens:
hooks.context_warning_threshold and hooks.context_critical_threshold. Absent
keys resolve to today's 35/25, so every existing project is byte-identical.

Resolution is total and never throws — this hook must not block the tool call
it rides in on. A value is usable only if Number.isFinite (type-strict, so the
string "30" and true are rejected) and inside the 0-100 domain of the
remaining_percentage it is compared against; anything else falls back to the
default. The PAIR falls back together: critical >= warning has no coherent
reading, and honouring one side silently picks which of the operator's two
numbers to discard. That also covers a single override contradicting the other
key's default.

config-set validates the domain per key so accept and honour agree, but
deliberately does not enforce the pair — it writes one key per call, so a
two-step retune is transiently inconsistent on disk and refusing it there
would block a legitimate configuration.

Registration follows the statusline.show_git precedent: schema manifest plus
src/config.cts validation, not config-defaults.manifest.json and not
buildNewProjectConfig — emitting 35/25 into every new project would pin the
defaults at creation time for a setting nobody has tuned.

* enhance(#4285): address Codex review — per-key fallback docs, discriminating tests

Codex full-PR review (gpt-6-astra, read-only) returned five findings. Each was
verified against source before acting; all five are real.

1. docs/CONFIGURATION.md described the wrong fallback. An out-of-domain value
   falls back PER KEY; both defaults apply only when the RESOLVED pair violates
   critical < warning. warning 150 with critical 30 resolves to 35/30, not
   35/25 — at remaining 28 that difference changes the severity emitted. The
   table now states the two rules in the order they compose, and
   docs/context-monitor.md gains the same worked example.

2. The inconsistent-pair test could not prove the CRITICAL side reverts: its
   pair was 20/25, and 25 is already the default, so an implementation that
   reset only `warning` passed it. A 45/50 pair — both halves away from their
   defaults — now pins each side with its own reading, and an equal 45/45 pair
   pins that the rule is strict (`<`, not `<=`).

3. The rejection table's rows could not tell rejection from acceptance: an
   accepted -5 pairs with the default critical 25, trips the pair check, and
   produces the same silence. Two rows now separate those: a below-domain
   critical must escalate remaining 20 to CRITICAL (proving -5 was rejected,
   not honoured), and an unusable critical beside a usable warning 45 must
   still fire WARNING at remaining 40 (proving per-key fallback rather than
   reset-both). The over-claiming comments are narrowed to what each row
   actually shows.

4. Scope, reproduced rather than assumed: config-set writes through
   planningDir(), so under GSD_WORKSTREAM it lands in
   .planning/workstreams/<name>/config.json while this hook reads only
   <cwd>/.planning/config.json. That is the pre-existing root-only scope
   hooks.context_warnings has always had, but this PR advertises the setter
   route, so both docs now say the keys are root-project settings.

5. Four other English docs still stated 35/25 as fixed: the REQ-CTX-02/03
   requirements fragment, ARCHITECTURE.md's hook table and threshold table,
   and INVENTORY.md's hook row. All now name them as defaults and point at the
   config keys; docs/FEATURES.md is regenerated from its fragment via
   scripts/gen-features.cjs --write, not hand-edited.

Four new mutations, each reverted after: resetting only the warning half on an
inconsistent pair (1 red), resetting both on any unusable key (1), dropping the
>= 0 bound (1), and accepting critical == warning (1). perf-317 is 116/0.

* enhance(#4285): tighten claims after Codex round 2 — scoped paths, one more discriminator

Confirmation round found no runtime defect and confirmed the five round-1 fixes
landed. Four precision items, all real, all fixed here.

1. The scoped-write note named the wrong path for GSD_PROJECT. planningDir()
   composes three distinct shapes, confirmed by running config-set under each:
   .planning/<project>/config.json, .planning/workstreams/<ws>/config.json, and
   .planning/<project>/workstreams/<ws>/config.json. docs/context-monitor.md
   now tabulates all four cases instead of collapsing them into one.

2. The 45/50 silence row asserted empty stdout without pinning the exit code.
   runMonitorRaw turns a spawn failure, a non-zero exit or a timeout into empty
   stdout as well, so the row could have passed on a dead child. It asserts
   exitCode === 0 first now, like the equal-pair row already did.

3. The sibling row's message claimed it proved critical fell back to 25. It
   does not: coercing '30' to 30 yields WARNING at remaining 40 too, so the row
   pins the WARNING side surviving and nothing more. Message narrowed, and a
   new row reads the same config at remaining 28, where the two candidate
   resolutions diverge — rejected gives (45, 25) and WARNING, coerced gives
   (45, 30) and CRITICAL. Mutation-verified: swapping Number.isFinite for the
   coercing global reds it.

4. "Accept and honour must agree" was too absolute in the src/config.cts and
   tests/config.test.cjs comments. The agreement holds on the DOMAIN and per
   key: an accepted value can still lose to the hook's pair check at read time,
   and a scoped write never reaches the hook at all. Likewise a two-step retune
   only CAN be transiently inconsistent — 35/25 to 20/10 is valid throughout if
   critical moves first — so the docs now say what a setter-side pair check
   would actually cost: rejecting that intermediate write and forcing an order.

The same over-absolute phrasing is in b7d179c89's message, which is left as
written rather than rewriting history; this commit and the PR body carry the
precise claim.

perf-317 117/0, config 192/0, config-field-docs 47/0, features-index-gate 84/0,
lint:ci clean cold.

* enhance(#4285): address review — planning-config rows, resolveThresholds properties

Two Minor findings from the maintainer review, no behaviour change.

Minor 1: gsd-core/references/planning-config.md's "Hook Fields" table gains
rows for hooks.context_warning_threshold and hooks.context_critical_threshold,
in that table's 5-column form, carrying the same per-key-fallback,
pair-reversion and root-config-scope claims docs/CONFIGURATION.md already
makes. hooks.workflow_guard's absence from that table is pre-existing and
out of scope here.

Minor 2: resolveThresholds() gets fast-check property coverage, which ADR 456
requires of a threshold/limit contract. Reaching it needed a require-time
seam: the resolver was previously observable only by spawning the hook, and a
subprocess per case cannot drive 200 runs — the same conclusion CONTEXT-INDEX
records for the ROADMAP Requirements parser. The stdin adapter therefore moves
into main() behind `require.main === module`, mirroring
gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js and gsd-statusline.js, and module.exports exposes
the resolver plus both default constants so a test asserts fallback against
the source of truth rather than a second copy of 35/25. Spawned behaviour is
unchanged: the 10s stdin timeout still arms per invocation (stdinTimeout is
now a module-scope let assigned in main(), still cleared by the end handler),
and the try/catch crash(ON_CRASH) path is untouched.

Seven properties: totality, ordering, exactness, togetherness, non-vacuity,
per-key fallback, non-object argument. Exactness is stated PER KEY — a mixed
result (one key honoured, one fallen back) is legal and is the documented
contract; the property falsified a per-pair phrasing of it in 4 runs.

Verified: cold lint:ci 0; perf-317 file 125/0; seven mutations killed and
restored, one of which (upper bound widened to 120) is invisible to the 17
hand-written cases and caught only by a property.

* enhance(#4285): close the Codex-found gap in the property coverage

Codex whole-PR review of round 3 returned no Blocker and no Major. Two items,
both in the tests added this round, both verified against source before acting.

Minor — the per-key fallback property was asymmetric: it required a usable
warning to survive an unusable critical, but never the reverse. A resolver
that reverted BOTH keys the moment warning was unusable passed all seven
properties. Reproduced exactly: that mutant answers 35/25 for
{warning: 150, critical: 30} where the resolver answers 35/30, and the file
stayed green at 125/0. The mirrored property closes it — with the mutant
re-applied it is now the single failing row, and it is the only row that
fails, so it is load-bearing rather than incidental.

Nit — the ordering property's comment credited it with catching a
half-honoured pair, which it does not: 45/50 "repaired" by resetting only
critical yields 45/25, perfectly ordered. That case belongs to togetherness.
The same comment claimed the behavioural rows sample an inconsistent pair at
exactly one point; stale — they cover 20/25, 45/50 and the 45/45 equality
boundary. Both claims corrected in place.

Verified: cold lint:ci 0; perf-317 file 126/0; the mutant above killed by the
new property alone and the hook restored byte-identical afterwards.

* enhance(#4285): name the installed-monitor prerequisite; close the negative-critical gap

Second Codex whole-PR pass, run because the base moved: the author's three
"Update branch" merges pulled ~26 upstream commits in, so the previously
reviewed diff sat on a base that no longer exists. No Blocker, no Major, two
Minor — both verified against source before acting.

Minor 1, and only reachable because of what the merge brought in: #2586
(03738824d) landed in that window and stops staging
hooks/gsd-context-monitor.js for Codex, since the metrics bridge it reads is
written only by hooks/gsd-statusline.js, which Codex never installs
(bin/install.js: "gsd-context-monitor.js is deliberately NOT copied for
Codex"). These two keys are read by that hook and nothing else, so on such a
runtime config-set stores and validates them and nothing consumes them — a
claim the docs this PR adds did not make. docs/context-monitor.md now carries
the explanation and both key tables carry a clause pointing at it; the FEATURES
and INVENTORY entries already link through to those two files, so they are not
edited again. The changeset says it too, because it is user-facing.

Accepting the keys on every runtime is kept deliberately: config is shared
across runtimes, so validation stays runtime-independent and the runtime
caveat lives in documentation rather than in the setter.

Minor 2: the per-key fallback property's junk generator had no negative arm,
though its mirror did — and that asymmetry hid a gap. A resolver reverting
BOTH keys whenever critical is negative answers 35/25 for {45, -5} where the
resolver answers 45/25, and it passed all 126 tests. With the negative arm
added it is the single failing row.

Verified: cold lint:ci 0; perf-317 126/0; both mutants above killed and the
hook restored byte-identical; 538/0 across the config, changeset, doc-parity
and emitted-attribution gates.

* enhance(#4285): refuse the two dead threshold endpoints; resolve absent keys

Maintainer review round 2 raised two Minors and a nit.

Minor 1 — `hooks.context_warning_threshold: 0` was accepted and stored but can
never take effect: `critical < warning` must hold and both sides are clamped to
0-100, so nothing can sit below a warning of 0. Verifying it surfaced the MIRROR
case the review did not name: `critical: 100` is equally dead, since nothing can
sit above it. Both confirmed against the real resolver for partners {absent, 0,
50, 100}, with 0.001 and 99.999 honoured as controls.

`config-set` now refuses both, because storing a value the reader always
discards is the accept-then-discard shape this codebase refuses elsewhere. The
hook is unchanged and still total — it degrades to defaults rather than
throwing, so a project that already carries one of these on disk still loads.
The old "accepts the domain bounds 0 and 100" row asserted the misleading half
and is replaced by tables that make the asymmetry the point (0 is legal for
critical and illegal for warning; 100 is the reverse), plus a control row so
"refuse both endpoints outright" would not pass in its place.

Minor 2 — the keys are absent from config-defaults.manifest.json /
buildNewProjectConfig where the sibling `hooks.context_warnings` lives. Kept
that way: buildNewProjectConfig writes a hooks object into every NEW project's
config.json, which would freeze today's fire-points as an explicit per-project
override everywhere — the opposite of this PR's premise. But the underlying
complaint was real, so the actual symptom is fixed: `config-get` on an absent
key returned "Key not found" while the hook silently used 35/25. It now resolves
through SCHEMA_DEFAULTS. Restated rather than derived because CONFIG_DEFAULTS is
re-exported flattened and has no `hooks` member at runtime; the one resulting
copy of 35/25 outside the hook is pinned against the hook's exported constants
by a drift test (red-checked: moving the literal to 40 reds it).

Nit — PR-body counts unverifiable from the diff. Noted, no code change.

Codex round 3 then found a broken doc link (`context-monitor.md` resolved
inside gsd-core/references/, where it does not exist; the emitted tree's own
convention is `../../docs/...`) and a stale comment still describing the
manifest-derived approach I had backed out. Both fixed. It also corrected my
rationale on a point of fact: manifest entries alone would NOT have reached new
project configs, since buildNewProjectConfig builds its own literal — the
freezing argument applies to that function, not to the manifest. The comment now
says so rather than running the two together.

Verified: cold lint:ci 0; full suite 36,082 / 0 fail before these two fixes,
config + perf-317 321/0 after; drift pin red-checked.

8bcf633e21 fix(#4554): trim execute-plan.md 21 bytes under its DEFAULT size-tier cap
gsd-core/workflows/execute-plan.md sat 21 bytes over its own DEFAULT-tier
hard cap (40,960 bytes, tests/workflow-size-budget.test.cjs, ADR-1610) at
next@a27cb6b2fa — introduced by #4540's call-site wiring for the summary.md/
user-setup.md .compact.md variants, which nobody caught crossing this exact
margin before merge. This trips next's own Tests run on every shard/OS
combination, which in turn blocks the repo's Base branch health PR gate
(#4422/#4428) for every open and future PR regardless of that PR's own diff.

Two meaning-preserving trims in the <success_criteria> block: a repeated
parenthetical ("— unless parallel mode (orchestrator handles)", appearing
twice) replaced with a "— same exception" back-reference on its second
occurrence, and one redundant qualifier ("prominently") dropped — its
behavioral content (surface the USER-SETUP.md warning at the TOP of output)
is already fully specified earlier in the same file. 40,981 -> 40,940 bytes,
20 bytes of headroom under the cap. No procedural content lost.

Fixes #4554.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Hash: gsd-core/workflows/execute-plan.md — deliberate content trim to clear the DEFAULT size-tier cap (#4554); not a regeneration artifact, a hand-authored byte reduction.

a27cb6b2fa enhance(#4139): Phase 6 — the lazily-read remainder and the artifact templates (#4540)
* enhance(#4406): the lazily-read remainder and the artifact templates

ADR-4139 Decision 3, Phase 6 of the #4139 Compact Content epic. Covers stream 1b
(gsd-core/workflows/<name>/{modes,steps,templates}/*.md) and stream 4
(gsd-core/templates/**) with a variant-swap mechanism, confirmed with the user:
two independent, complete files per covered path (canonical + .compact.md
sibling), with the gate picking which one gets Read at the call site. This is
a different shape from Phase 5's spine+detail partition, and is safe here
specifically because these files are already reached only by a runtime Read —
a missed Read already means zero overlay content today, with or without
workflow.compact_content, so selecting between two independently-complete
files introduces no new failure mode (documented in
gsd-core/references/compact-content-gate.md's new "Streams 1b and 4" section).

Disposition, after inspecting every candidate rather than trusting a byte-size
threshold (same rigor Phase 5 applied to review.md):

- Stream 1b: 1 of 78 files compacted (help/modes/full.md, a user-facing
  reference doc emitted verbatim, not orchestrator instruction). The other 9
  size-threshold candidates are dominated by fail-closed guards, exact CLI
  invocations, or output-format contracts (AskUserQuestion blocks) — recorded
  not-worth-compacting, same reasoning as Phase 5's review.md.
- Stream 4: a ground-truth reachability audit replaced the initial size-only
  candidate list. Two files (summary.md, user-setup.md) got compact variants;
  a third (spec.md) was drafted, then dropped after discovering its only two
  call sites are eager @-includes, not a runtime Read — stream-1 material
  hiding under gsd-core/templates/, not stream-4's actual mechanism. summary.md
  itself has 3 eager call sites and only 1 genuine runtime-Read call site
  (execute-plan.md); only that one was wired, so the compact variant's savings
  apply to the sequential single-plan execution path only.
- Discovered while auditing reachability: 12 gsd-core/templates/** files with
  zero references anywhere in workflow/agent/command prose, compiled source,
  or tests — dead scaffolding predating this phase. Deleted in this same PR
  per this repo's no-defer policy, after re-verifying against a computed
  path.join(...) pattern (not just a plain-string search) that nearly caused
  two genuinely load-bearing templates (user-profile.md, dev-preferences.md)
  to be misclassified as dead.

New checker (tests/helpers/compact-content-variant.cjs): registration,
reachability, protected-content-preserved, size-smaller — replacing Phase
3/5's disjointness/completeness checks, which assume a partition rather than
two deliberately-overlapping documents. The reachability check's own
"unprefixed match" guard had a real bug (rejected the repo's own
`~/.claude/gsd-core/...` convention), caught by running it against the
already-wired help/modes/full.compact.md pair rather than only synthetic
fixtures — fixed to anchor on the nearest `gsd-core` path segment instead.

Template consumer parity (tests/compact-content-template-variant-parity.test.cjs):
proves each compact variant's `## File Template` fenced block — the actual
output-format contract a generated SUMMARY.md/USER-SETUP.md is parsed
against — is byte-identical to the canonical file, then runs the one real
deterministic consumer (gsd-core/bin/lib/coverage.cjs's classifyContent,
backing `gsd-tools uat classify-coverage`) against content built from that
shared contract.

Added a sibling benchmark script (scripts/benchmark-compact-content-variants.cjs)
rather than extending the existing spine/detail one — different data shape,
and the existing script's own contract deliberately isolates it from a
test-only helper's shape changing.

Emitted-drift acknowledgement: not needed. Every changed/added path in this
diff is hand-authored and present in the diff itself, so diffEmitted's
attribution loop resolves `via` to the path's own source before reaching the
ack-lookup branch (same reasoning Phase 5 verified for its own diff).

* enhance(#4406): address code-review findings on the variant-swap gate

- docs/CONFIGURATION.md and gsd-core/references/planning-config.md's
  workflow.compact_content entries described only the spine+detail mechanism
  (Phase 5) and were missing this phase's variant-swap mechanism and its
  benchmark:compact-content-variants script entirely — required since this
  PR's changeset is type Added (CLAUDE.md's "Missing Docs for Changesets"
  rule). Both now describe both mechanisms and which call sites are wired.
- Added the missing RED^-1/no-op fixture for checkProtectedContentPreserved:
  a canonical file with zero <!-- gsd:protected --> blocks must be a
  no-op, not a violation — the only branch of that function the existing
  fixtures didn't exercise.
- Collapsed findCompactFiles/findMarkdownFiles in
  tests/helpers/compact-content-variant.cjs into one findFilesWithSuffix
  helper — the two were identical recursive walks differing only in the
  extension predicate (minor Duplicated-Code finding).

* fix(#4406): restore copilot-instructions.md, a false-positive dead-template classification

gsd-test caught this, not static analysis: 10 real failures in
tests/copilot-install.test.cjs, tests/installer-migration-install.integration.test.cjs,
and tests/repo-layout.test.cjs — all downstream of bin/install.js's Copilot install
path, which does
fs.readFileSync(path.join(targetDir, 'gsd-core', 'templates', 'copilot-instructions.md'))
after copying gsd-core/templates/** into the target project, then merges it into both
.github/copilot-instructions.md and (local installs) AGENTS.md. The reachability audit
that flagged this file as dead checked src/*.cts and gsd-core/bin/*.cjs but never the
repo-root bin/install.js — a separately maintained installer bundle outside the
src/-to-gsd-core/bin/lib/ compiled-output convention. The fs.existsSync guard around
that read degrades to a silent skip rather than a crash when the template is missing,
which is why this surfaced only once the real E2E install test ran, not from any
static check.

Re-verified the remaining 11 deleted filenames against bin/install.js specifically
(plain substring and quoted-filename search) before trusting that list — all 11 have
zero hits there, confirmed dead by the same standard this one file failed.

Regenerated the installer emitted-tree goldens (tests/fixtures/install-tree/*.json) to
reflect the restored file, and corrected the "Removed" changeset (jolly-lynx-sprint.md)
and the phase design doc from 12 to 11 deleted files.

* fix(#4406): resolve removed-but-needed lint findings on the dead-template deletion

CI's own full-test matrix (not gsd-test's matrix, which does not run this
check) caught 4 more false-positive dead-template classifications via
tests/removed-but-needed-lint.test.cjs / scripts/lint-removed-but-needed.cjs
— a literal, word-boundary basename check across .github/workflows/,
gsd-core/, and docs/ (excluding docs/adr/** and docs/research/**) for every
file a PR deletes. It has no semantic awareness, so a deleted template's
basename colliding with something else entirely still fires:

- claude-md.md: gsd-core/templates/README.md had a stale table row claiming
  /gsd-profile reads this template to generate CLAUDE.md. Verified false (no
  code reads it anywhere, same search that already covered bin/install.js) —
  fixed the row to *(inline)*, matching every other command-generated
  artifact in that table. File stays deleted.
- codebase/testing.md: collided with docs/guides/testing.md, an illustrative
  example row in docs-update.md's sample output table (an unrelated real
  generated-docs path). Swapped the example topic to "contributing" — the
  row is illustrative, any topic works. File stays deleted.
- codebase/architecture.md, codebase/stack.md: collided with docs/reference/
  planning-artifacts.md's directory listing of a user's own generated
  .planning/codebase/architecture.md and stack.md output — the same
  semantic mismatch already investigated and dismissed as unrelated earlier
  in this phase's audit, now caught by a gate instead of judgment. That
  listing repeats across 5 locale copies of the doc.
- continue-here.md: collided with the real .continue-here.md pause-work
  artifact, referenced across 15+ locale and workflow files.

For the last two, the lint's own error message offers "restore the file or
update every consumer in the same commit." Rewording 15+ files across
languages I cannot verify translation quality for, to shave 2 already-tiny
templates that were merely presumed dead, is disproportionate to this PR's
actual scope — restored codebase/architecture.md, codebase/stack.md, and
continue-here.md instead, and corrected docs/ARCHITECTURE.md's Templates
section accordingly.

Final confirmed-dead set: claude-md.md, codebase/concerns.md,
codebase/conventions.md, codebase/integrations.md, codebase/structure.md,
codebase/testing.md, debug-subagent-prompt.md, discovery.md — 8 files, down
from the original 12. Verified locally: GSD_REMOVED_BUT_NEEDED_BASE=next
node scripts/lint-removed-but-needed.cjs now passes clean.

* fix(#4406): split codex-config.test.cjs to fix a genuine Windows CI timeout

Root cause of the `full test (windows-latest, 24, shard 2/3)` failure the
user asked to be actually fixed, not just re-run past: PR #4497 (landed
2026-09-07, one day before this PR's CI run) isolated
tests/codex-config.test.cjs into its own dedicated chunk because its
measured weight (17.87, ~45% of the post-cut Windows budget) made it unsafe
to share a chunk with any other file. That isolation was necessary but not
sufficient — even alone, with zero companion-file contention, the file's
real Windows execution time sits right at the 600s per-chunk ceiling. Two
independent CI runs on two unrelated PRs (this one and #4154) were both
killed within ~1.4s of the identical 600000ms mark — not random contention,
a deterministic near-miss the isolation fix couldn't address because it
never reduced the file's own cost, only removed the risk of a companion
file's cost stacking on top of it (which the PR #4497 comment explicitly
anticipated: "if a future profiling pass genuinely speeds up
codex-config.test.cjs itself, this isolation can be revisited").

The file itself explains why it's this heavy: 11,262 lines / 433 tests / 79
describe blocks, accumulated over dozens of bug-fix PRs (#2695, #2760,
#3245, #3285, #3346, #3426, #3427, #3562, #3566, #3582, #3808, and more),
several of which are explicitly documented as "folded" in from separate
files that were never actually split back out ("Verified non-duplicate
against both the pre-existing target and the other three folded sources").

Split into 4 files by top-level AST statement boundaries (never a naive
column-0 regex — an early attempt at that overcounted 79 apparent
"describe(" matches when only 21 are genuinely top-level; the rest are
nested inside a handful of large folded-in blocks, which a regex can't tell
apart from real top-level statements). Verified lossless twice: the split
script asserts byte-for-byte reconstruction of every source character, and
independently, total test()/describe() call counts match exactly between
the original file and the sum across all 4 new files (433/79 both sides).
Each new file carries the complete original shared header (imports/helpers)
for safety; per-file unused-import warnings from that duplication are
resolved via ESLint-precise alias renames (`{ foo: _foo }`, the standard
form for an intentionally-unused destructured binding — never a bare `{
_foo }`, which would destructure a different, nonexistent property).

No change needed to scripts/run-tests.cjs's ISOLATED_HEAVY_FILES or its
pinned test in tests/run-tests-harness.test.cjs: the file that keeps the
original name (tests/codex-config.test.cjs) is now only ~28% of the
original's size and safely isolated in its own chunk as before; the other
three new files re-enter normal weight-balanced packing, none individually
close to disproportionate. Confirmed no other file hardcodes the hardcoded
filename anywhere that would silently stop these tests from running (the
CI test-selection scripts determine scope algorithmically, not by literal
filename).

66dbb104a0 fix(#4459): anchor update_codebase_map's diff base on the phase directory (#4549)
* fix(#4459): anchor update_codebase_map's diff base on the phase directory

execute-plan.md's update_codebase_map step derived its diff base from:

  git log --oneline --grep="feat({phase}-{plan}):" ... --reverse | head -1

A phase number is unique within a MILESTONE, not a repository (#3995).
`--reverse | head -1` deliberately selects the OLDEST matching commit
subject, so on a milestone that reuses a phase number, the diff base
lands in the PREVIOUS milestone's same-numbered phase -- silently
widening the file list that then drives which .planning/codebase/*.md
files get amended, with no warning and nothing downstream that would
notice.

This is the same defect class already fixed at two other sites in this
repo (code-review.md, structural-pre-pass.md) via a phase-DIRECTORY
anchor instead of a commit-subject grep: PHASE_START = the first commit
that ADDED anything under the phase directory, diffing from its parent
(or the commit itself on a root commit). Mirrored that exact pattern
here rather than inventing a new one.

Added tests/execute-plan-update-codebase-map-diff-base.test.cjs:
static regression guards (old grep gone, new #3995-shaped anchor
present) plus a real-execution test reproducing the issue's own
scenario -- two milestones reusing a phase number with a real
constructed git fixture, extracting and running the step's actual bash
fence, asserting the resulting diff is scoped to the current
milestone's files only.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: execute-plan.md — #4459 replaces the unbounded commit-subject grep with the phase-directory anchor already used by code-review.md/structural-pre-pass.md, net +687 bytes

* fix(#4459): cite this issue in the new file's allow-test-rule marker

gsd-test caught tests/lint-allow-test-rule-refs.test.cjs failing: the new
test file's `// allow-test-rule: source-text-is-the-product` comment
(copied from the two sibling precedent files) was missing the required
issue-ref suffix -- ADR-456 requires a NEW exemption to cite an issue via
`#NNN` on the same comment line. Added `(see #4459)`. Verified via
`node scripts/lint-allow-test-rule-refs.cjs` directly (clean) before
re-running the full suite.

511c900052 fix(#4458): reuse detectSubRepos for new-project.md's sub-repo detection (#4548)
* fix(#4458): reuse detectSubRepos for new-project.md's sub-repo detection

new-project.md's Step 5.1 (Sub-Repo Detection) ran its own bash predicate:

  find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -not -name ".*" -not -name "node_modules" \
    -exec test -d "{}/.git" \; -print

`test -d` requires .git to be a DIRECTORY. A linked git worktree's .git is
a FILE (a `gitdir: <path>` pointer), so this predicate silently excluded
valid linked-worktree children while still finding ordinary clones.

src/core-utils.cts's detectSubRepos(cwd) already handles this correctly
(fs.existsSync, type-agnostic) but had zero callers anywhere in the
codebase -- orphaned logic the workflow never actually used, despite
duplicating a narrower version of the same check inline.

Wired detectSubRepos into cmdInitNewProject's JSON output as a new
sub_repos_detected field (matching the file's existing pattern of
similar directory-scan-derived fields like has_existing_code/
is_brownfield/has_codebase_map) and replaced the workflow's raw find
fence with a gsd_run query init.new-project call reading that field --
removing the duplicate, narrower detection logic entirely rather than
patching it in place, per the issue's own "reuse a central policy"
framing.

Added the missing .git-as-FILE test case to the existing
tests/core-utils.test.cjs detectSubRepos coverage (proving the helper
was already correct -- the defect was entirely in the unwired workflow
predicate) plus CLI-level end-to-end coverage in
tests/init-manager.test.cjs using a REAL `git worktree add` fixture,
matching the issue's own reproduction steps, alongside an ordinary
child-clone case and a non-repository-directory negative case.

Refreshed tests/fixtures/compact-content-benchmark-baseline.json (gsd-test
caught the drift from new-project.md's byte-count change; the benchmark
script itself always exits 0 -- report, not gate -- but the wrapper test
enforces the committed baseline stays in sync).

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: new-project.md — #4458 replaces the raw find predicate in Step 5.1 with a gsd_run query call reading the new sub_repos_detected field, net +140 bytes

* fix(#4458): bound the new git worktree add spawn with a named timeout

CI's lint-tests caught two ESLint findings my local gsd-test run
couldn't see (gsd-test's matrix doesn't run npm run lint:ci -- same gap
already observed on #4456's PR):

- local/no-unbounded-spawn: the new execFileSync('git', ['worktree',
  'add', ...]) call had no timeout, an indefinite-hang risk.
- local/no-adhoc-timeout-literal: my first fix (a bare `timeout: 15_000`
  literal) was itself flagged -- two independent hardcoded copies of a
  guessed timeout can silently drift or collide (this repo hit exactly
  that on 2026-09-06, PR #4428).

Fixed by importing GIT_FIXTURE_TIMEOUT_MS from tests/helpers/timeouts.cjs
-- `git worktree add` checks out files into a new working tree, the same
"construction" weight class as init/config/add/commit that constant
already covers, not plain plumbing (GIT_TIMEOUT_MS's class).

Verified via `npm run lint` directly (clean) before re-running gsd-test.

* fix(#4458): reduce redundant git subprocess overhead in new tests

CI's full-test Windows shard 2/3 failed: chunk 1/9 (306 files) exceeded
its internal 600s budget and was force-killed, with an unrelated file
(codex-config.test.cjs) in flight at the moment of the kill -- meaning
the chunk's AGGREGATE runtime, not any single hang, blew the budget.

This PR's own three new tests each independently called
createTempGitProject() (git init + a commit), and one of them also runs
git worktree add -- real subprocess spawns, each Defender-scanned on
Windows CI (tests/helpers/timeouts.cjs's own documented rationale for
why Windows spawn classes get generous budgets). That's a genuine,
quantifiable overhead addition to the exact chunk that timed out, not
something to wave off as unrelated flake without checking.

Two of the three tests never actually needed a real git repo --
detectSubRepos only inspects a CHILD directory's own .git, never the
root's git state, and the existing SUBCOMMANDS loop earlier in this same
file already proves `init new-project` succeeds against a plain,
non-git createTempProject() fixture. Switched those two tests to the
lighter fixture, leaving only the one test that genuinely needs a real
repo (git worktree add requires one) on createTempGitProject().
