1e47560e34 feat(#4593): add a macOS-specific conformance tier, final phase of epic #4589 (#4607)
test-conformance's macos-latest leg (Phase 2, #4591) has been running the
same 546-file, Windows-oriented conformance-tier list as windows-latest --
built from signals like windows-shell-token/windows-env-var that have
nothing to do with macOS. Issue #4593 asked for macOS coverage sized to
its own evidence-backed surface (zsh dispatch, case-sensitivity, darwin-
specific behavior) instead.

Issue #4593 was filed before Phase 5 (#4603) existed and referenced
updating test-full's macOS legs -- that job is gone. Corrected the issue's
body before any code was touched: the "shrink from full replay" half of
the original ask was already done by Phase 5; what remained was narrowing
the still-Windows-oriented tier macOS was inheriting.

Two design assumptions were measured and rejected before accepting a
design (documented in docs/adr/4593-macos-conformance-tier-architecture.md):
- Reusing the general tier's signals minus its 3 Windows-specific
  categories barely narrows anything (546 -> 424, 78% retained) -- most
  files match multiple signals and only need one to survive exclusion.
- A standalone CRLF/autocrlf signal, despite the issue naming
  "CRLF-checkout behavior": even narrowed to /\bCRLF\b|autocrlf/i it hit
  143/930 files. Root cause: CRLF is primarily a Windows checkout concern
  in this codebase (ADR-1703 files it under DEFECT.WINDOWS-TEST-
  PORTABILITY), so the signal was really re-selecting Windows-relevant
  files already covered by the general tier, not narrowing macOS
  specifically.

Built 5 new, genuinely macOS-specific signals instead: darwin-literal
(darwin alone, not the general tier's win32-OR-darwin), zsh-dispatch,
case-sensitivity, plus chmod-mode-bit and symlink-keyword reused verbatim
from the general tier (genuinely Unix-relevant, not Windows-motivated).
Measured against the real tree: 196 of 930 eligible unit-suite files
(21%), versus the general tier's 546 (59%) -- a real, evidence-backed
narrowing.

scripts/gen-platform-conformance-tier.cjs gains classifyMacosContent/
classifyMacosTree/renderMacosGeneratedFile and a --target windows
(default, unchanged)/--target macos CLI flag, so the same generator
produces two independent, gated outputs rather than needing a second
script. New committed output: scripts/lib/macos-conformance-tier.
generated.cjs. .github/workflows/test.yml's test-conformance job: only
the macos-latest leg's file-list source changes; windows-latest is
byte-for-byte untouched. New shipped-file ripples handled proactively
(19 install-tree fixtures regenerated, bin/install.js registered).

An isolated code-review pass found one real defect: the ADR's per-
category count table had drifted by 1 (zsh-dispatch, case-sensitivity)
because the new test file's own fixture strings joined the tree it
classifies after the table was authored -- fixed, with the union total
(196, what CI actually gates on) confirmed unaffected. An isolated
security-review pass found no qualifying findings.

The ADR also records an explicit requirement for any future widening
proposal: check whether the motivating regression is already covered by
Phase 1's no-rendered-text-length-assert lint rule (#4590) before
re-proposing full macOS/Linux parity, since that is exactly what #4421's
root cause was (a rendered-text-length assertion, not a real behavioral
divergence).

8c3ef049b2 fix: enumerate the new scripts/lib file in GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES
scripts/lib/npm-version-check-diagnosis.cjs (added earlier in this
branch) ships to every install (bin/install.js copies scripts/lib/
wholesale) but was missing from GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES, so uninstall()
would never remove it -- it would orphan on every uninstall. Confirmed
by gsd-test: tests/install.test.cjs's own parity check named the exact
missing filename and the array to add it to.

0aa4202f6a fix(#4135): headline baseline coverage, opt-in strict gate, git-history widening (#4376)
* test(#4135): regression rows for pristine regen coverage collapse

RED skeleton: src/pristine-baseline.cts exports findPristineInGit as a
null-returning stub (wired into verifyFile after the #4145 orphan tier,
behavior-neutral) so the git-history rows fail behaviorally, not at require
time. Failing-first rows: baseline_covered aggregate on a 1-of-13
multi-version fixture, coverageHeadline typed renderer, the opt-in
--min-baseline-coverage gate (exit 3, >= threshold semantics, vacuous-pass
and malformed-value boundaries), git-history baseline recovery (dropped-line
catch + surviving-line verify + older-commit hop), findPristineInGit unit,
Step 5a workflow headline contract, and the installer-side
describeBaselineCoverage honest N-of-M summary with the collapse disk-state
pinned. Negative-space rows pin today: non-git ok_no_baseline posture,
no-match-no-adoption, #3657 drift never rescued, canonical precedence, and
no git tier without --pristine-dir.

* fix(#4135): headline baseline coverage, opt-in strict gate, git-history widening

The #3407 promotion rule regenerates gsd-pristine/ baselines from the
INCOMING release source and keeps only candidates byte-identical with the
OUTGOING recorded hash — correct in isolation, but on a multi-version jump
the surviving set is precisely the files upstream did NOT change. The
verifier then reports ok_no_baseline (advisory, exit 0) for everything
else, and no surface distinguishes a 12-of-13-unverified green run from a
fully-verified one: the human summary printed Checked/Failures only, the
JSON had no coverage aggregate, and the installer's update output gave
per-bucket counts without N-of-M framing.

All three issue directions, none exclusive:

- Report coverage prominently: --json gains an additive baseline_covered
  aggregate; the human summary leads with 'Baseline coverage: N of M
  file(s)...' on every run plus an advisory section naming each skipped
  file and reason; the installer prints an honest covered-of-modified line
  via the exported describeBaselineCoverage helper (typed return, exact
  contract); workflow Step 5a computes and prints the headline before any
  pass/fail framing.
- Fail louder on low coverage: opt-in --min-baseline-coverage <0..1>
  exits with new documented code 3 when coverage falls below the
  threshold (>= semantics; empty run vacuously passes; content failure
  exit 1 outranks it; malformed values are usage errors, exit 2).
  Default posture unchanged — no_baseline stays advisory per #934.
- Widen the promotion rule (its only trustworthy form): when no baseline
  resolves under gsd-pristine/ and a hash is recorded, the verifier now
  recovers the baseline from the config dir's own git history — the
  workflow's documented Option A — anchored by the same authority every
  tier trusts, exact pristine_hashes sha-256 equality. Read-only
  (git log/git show, windowsHide per #685), bounded (100 commits/file,
  10s/subprocess), null-on-any-failure so ok_no_baseline remains the
  universal fallback. Tier order: canonical join -> #4145 orphan scan ->
  git history -> OK_NO_BASELINE; #3657 drift and canonical precedence
  untouched.

Hash validation in saveLocalPatches is NOT relaxed — the collapse is
legitimate conservatism; hiding it was the bug. Measured on the issue's
shape (13 files, 12 changed upstream, 1.10->1.12): non-git installs report
baseline_covered 1/13 with the headline and can gate at exit 3; a
git-managed config dir with the outgoing bytes in history verifies 13/13.

Review fixes folded in: workflow headline derives the unverified count
from checked - baseline_covered (not the drift+no_baseline sum), and the
new site-scoped allow-test-rule annotation carries its ADR-456 see-ref on
the marker line.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: reapply-patches.md — #4135 — +20 lines / ~1.5 KB, prose and bash only: two additive parse lines (BASELINE_COVERED, CHECKED_COUNT), a Step 5a coverage-headline block printed BEFORE any pass/fail statement (documents the opt-in --min-baseline-coverage exit-3 gate), and one Option B sentence noting the verifier's read-only git-history fallback. No step ordering, gate, tool-invocation, or dispatch shape changed; 5a's fail/drift/advisory handling is unchanged, the headline only precedes it.

* chore(#4135): backfill PR number into changeset fragment

6adf3098ac fix(#4145): resolve gsd-pristine/ baselines by recorded hash, relocate orphans (#4364)
* test(#4145): regression rows for hash-matching prefix-less pristine baselines

RED skeleton: src/pristine-baseline.cts exports findPristineByHash as a
null-returning stub so the new rows fail behaviorally, not at require time.
Failing-first rows: verifier resolution (no_baseline must drop to 0 when an
exact-hash orphan exists), findPristineByHash unit row, and the two
saveLocalPatches relocation rows. Negative-space rows pin today's behavior:
missing baselines still report ok_no_baseline, mismatching orphans are never
adopted or deleted, canonical precedence and the #3657 drift posture are
untouched.

* fix(#4145): resolve gsd-pristine/ baselines by recorded hash, relocate orphans

Both pristine readers joined the manifest-keyed path strictly, so a snapshot
stored without the gsd-core/ prefix (an earlier release's writer) was reported
as ok_no_baseline by the verifier and pushed into regeneration by
saveLocalPatches — where incoming-release candidates can never satisfy the
recorded outgoing hash, leaving the correct baseline permanently unconsumed.

- src/pristine-baseline.cts (new, ADR-457): shared findPristineByHash —
  deterministic sorted scan of gsd-pristine/, exact sha-256 equality with the
  recorded pristine_hashes entry (the same authority the #3657 drift guard
  trusts), symlink-skipping, canonical path excluded via skipRel.
- verify-reapply-patches.cjs verifyFile(): on canonical miss with a recorded
  hash, adopt byte-identical content found anywhere under gsd-pristine/ before
  reporting OK_NO_BASELINE. Drift posture (#3657), canonical precedence, and
  the frozen REASON/report shapes are untouched; the verifier stays read-only.
- install.js saveLocalPatches(): preserve-check rescue — relocate a
  hash-matching orphan to the canonical path (copy, hash-verify, then remove
  the orphan) so the state self-heals on the next update instead of repeating
  forever. Honest accounting: new non-overlapping rescued counter.
- Workflow doc: one-sentence note on hash-based snapshot resolution.
- Derived ripples: INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json regen, eslint ignore + .gitignore
  entries for the compiled artifact, seedFixture mkdir fix in the new rows.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: reapply-patches.md — one-sentence note on hash-based pristine snapshot resolution (#4145)

* fix(#4145): review follow-up — orphan scan never consumes a canonical path

Adversarial review finding: with two modified files sharing byte-identical
outgoing content, recoverOrphanedPristine could adopt the OTHER file's
canonical pristine as its rescue source — relocating it (copy + delete at
its home path) and ping-ponging the single baseline between the two files
across updates. findPristineByHash's skip parameter now accepts a Set, and
saveLocalPatches passes the normalized manifest keys so every canonical
path is excluded; only genuine non-canonical orphans are eligible for
removal (no strict-join reader ever consults those). Adds the
canonical-theft regression row, a Set-skip unit assertion, and tightens the
workflow doc sentence the same pass flagged as overstated.

* fix(#4145): INVENTORY roster row + symlink-fixture correction

Two leftovers from the ab17b7a1e5 bench run, both root-caused:
- docs/INVENTORY.md roster row for cli_modules/pristine-baseline.cjs
  (#3762 gate: every manifest entry carries a row).
- The findPristineByHash symlink unit fixture placed its symlink target
  INSIDE the scanned root, so the walk legitimately matched the real target
  file. The implementation skips the symlink itself; the fixture now keeps
  the target outside the scanned tree so the assertion tests what it claims.

* changeset(#4145): fixed fragment for pristine baseline hash resolution

b327331747 fix(#4086): resolve skills/ manifest keys at the runtime's actual skills root (#4311)
* fix(#4086): resolve skills/ manifest keys at the runtime's actual skills root

Codex installs skills to ~/.agents/skills (skills-kind home override), but
saveLocalPatches() and verify-reapply-patches.cjs resolved every manifest key
config-dir-relative only — every skills/ key missed, so user modifications to
Codex skills were never hash-compared, never backed up, and silently
overwritten on update; the reapply verifier false-failed the same keys with
fail_installed_missing.

configDir stays first (non-override runtimes byte-identical); the skills root
(same _resolveSkillsRootDir / skillsManifestPrefix seams the write side uses)
is a containment-guarded fallback when the config-dir path is absent.

925a363879 enhance(#4032): apply configured agent tool grants (#4238)
* test(4032): add failing installed-agent grants contract

Cover global and project agent_tools precedence at the real Claude installer seam before adding implementation.

* feat(4032): apply configured agent tool grants during staging

Resolve selector-level global and project config once per staging call, then append validated grants before runtime conversion.

* test(4032): cover host grant and quoted MCP contracts

Exercise installed host artifacts and prove ZCode must treat quoted MCP scalars like plain MCP grants.

* feat(4032): apply configured agent tool grants across runtimes

Move augmentation and scalar identity into the converter seam so every staged artifact preserves host policy.

* fix(4032): register agent tool grants in configuration

Accept documented agent_tools config without unknown-key warnings.\n\nKeep installer fixtures on the shared temporary-directory helper.

* fix(4032): translate configured MCP grants for Kilo

Reuse the converter-owned scalar decoder so quoted canonical grants reach Kilo's native permission keys without altering other host policies.

* fix(4032): decode YAML-escaped tool grants

* fix(4032): emit valid inline agent tool grants

* fix(4032): reject invalid trailing-colon grants

* test(#4032): cover cross-review remediation gaps

* fix(#4032): close cross-runtime grant gaps

* test(#4032): expose Kimi global project context

* fix(#4032): preserve Kimi project config context

* chore(#4032): add release note

* test(#4032): expose fork review regressions

* fix(#4032): address fork review findings

* test(#4032): make byte-stability assertion portable

Compare repeat installs at one root so platform-specific path rendering cannot
masquerade as an agent_tools behavior change.

* chore(#4032): bind changeset to upstream PR 4238

* fix(#4032): address trek-e review findings (2,3,4,5,6,7,8)

Fixes fail-closed decode-failure handling in ZCode's mcp__ stripper,
a comment-only `tools:` header mis-parse that silently dropped
configured grants, and a naive comma-split that could tear a quoted
scalar containing a literal comma. Documents Kilo's inherent
`{server}_{tool}` MCP-permission-key collision (external, fixed
format — not ours to widen) and locks the existing first-seen-wins
resolution in with a regression test.

Opts kimi/kimi-code out of the ADR-1235 pre-converter path-rewrite
step: routing Kimi through that pipeline (needed so project-scoped
agent_tools selectors reach it) was short-circuiting Kimi's own
neutralizeKimiAgentPrompt, which expects the original ~/.claude/gsd-core
text rather than a pre-rewritten Kimi path.

Extends the fast-check token pool and per-runtime install coverage
with the missing comment/comma/broad-runtime cases the prior review
flagged as untested.

* docs(#4032): add CONTEXT.md glossary entries for agent_tools resolver + pre-converter step

Documents readGsdEffectiveAgentTools (Install Model Override Resolver
Module) and the appendAgentTools pre-converter pipeline step (Runtime
Artifact Conversion Module), per contributor-standards.md's
new-seam glossary requirement (finding 1).

* fix(#4032): address agy adversarial review findings

An agy (gemini-3.8-flash-high) adversarial pass over the prior review-fix
commit found the fixes for findings 3, 4, 6 and 8 had unfixed sibling gaps,
plus a genuine new regression and two CONTEXT.md inaccuracies:

- ZCode's comment-only `tools: # note` header matched the inline-value
  branch instead of falling through to the block-list scan, so a following
  mcp__* item leaked through unstripped — the exact defect finding 4 fixed
  in appendAgentTools, unfixed in this sibling function.
- Reverted capabilities/kimi-code/capability.json's noPathRewrite: true.
  kimi-code uses the standard 'agents' kind with converter: null (not
  kimi-agents — confirmed by reading the descriptor, not its prose
  description), so it never went through the pipeline change finding 5
  fixed, and disabling its path rewrite broke every ~/.claude/ embed in
  its shipped agents instead.
- decodeToolScalar never stripped a trailing ` # comment` from a bare
  (unquoted) scalar, so a comment after a block-list item, or after an
  appended grant on an inline line, became part of the "tool name" —
  fixed at the source (one call site fixes every consumer).
- appendAgentTools's comment-index scan wasn't quote-aware, so a `#`
  inside a quoted scalar (`"mcp__server #1"`) was mistaken for a comment
  start and corrupted the quote.
- parseFrontmatterTools (Kimi/Qwen's tool-list reader, downstream of
  appendAgentTools's own output) had the same naive comma-split and
  comment-only-header gaps as findings 4 and 6, unpatched.
- The all-runtime smoke test's presence assertion was built on a guessed
  omit-list; empirically only 7 of 17 runtimes keep an arbitrary mcp__
  grant recognizable, replaced with a verified allowlist.
- CONTEXT.md claimed a `project:<agent>` selector prefix that does not
  exist (project override is a same-key merge across two config files)
  and mislabeled stageAgentsForRuntimeWithConverter's module.

* fix(#4032): address full-PR review (Opus critical/ponytail + agy)

A whole-PR pass (critical-code-reviewer + ponytail-review on Opus, plus a
second agy full-source adversarial pass) surfaced defects the earlier
finding-scoped passes couldn't reach:

- appendAgentTools corrupted a `tools:` line whose ENTIRE value is a
  leading quoted scalar (`tools: "Read"` -> `tools: "Read", Write`,
  invalid YAML) — there is no safe line-surgical rewrite here, so it now
  refuses to touch that shape instead of emitting broken frontmatter.
- decodeToolScalar's malformed-trailing-quote check ran BEFORE comment
  stripping, so a bare tool name with a quote inside its own trailing
  comment (`Bash # note: "internal"`) was wrongly rejected. Reordered.
- findUnquotedCommentIndex (added in the prior remediation commit) was
  built on a wrong model of YAML: a `#` after whitespace starts a real
  comment in a plain scalar regardless of nearby quote characters —
  verified against the actual parser. The one case that DOES need
  protection (a leading quoted scalar) is now refused outright above, so
  the quote-tracking scan was dead weight solving a problem that no
  longer reaches it. Removed; reverted to the plain `[ \t]#` scan.
- Kilo has a SEPARATE agent-frontmatter parser (convertClaudeToKiloFrontmatter,
  distinct from the buildKiloAgentPermissionBlock fixed earlier) with the
  same comment-only-header and naive-comma-split gaps as findings 4 and 6
  — unfixed in both its src/ and bin/install.js copies. Fixed in both,
  exporting splitToolScalars for bin/install.js to reuse rather than
  reimplementing it.
- Pipeline docstring in stageAgentsForRuntimeWithConverter still listed 5
  steps, omitting appendAgentTools (now step 3 of 6).
- docs/CONFIGURATION.md didn't state that a --global install still
  discovers agent_tools from the cwd's .planning/config.json (confirmed
  intentional and already covered by a dedicated test, not a bug).
- Removed install-engine.cts's deps.cwd injection seam: zero callers or
  tests ever populated it.

Two claims from this round were verified and rejected, not fixed:
prototype pollution via a `__proto__` selector key (empirically confirmed
`Object.prototype` is never touched — only reassigns the resolver's own
local object's prototype, with no observable effect), and a `*` grant
value crashing YAML parsing as an alias reference (empirically confirmed
it parses as plain scalar text, no crash). A pre-existing, unrelated
defect (extractFrontmatterField returns null for block-list `tools:` on
Copilot/Antigravity/Cursor/Codex/Qwen, affecting two shipped agents
today) was filed as a follow-up rather than fixed here — it predates
#4032 and isn't caused or worsened by this PR.

* fix(#4032): update stale slug-derivation-drift-guard fixture line

normalizeKimiSkillName's real closing brace moved from line 616 to 635 as a
side effect of this PR's edits to runtime-artifact-conversion.cts; the
MAJOR-1 fixture's hardcoded realEndLine had gone stale.

* fix(#4032): address CodeRabbit findings on projectDir threading and flow-sequence tools

bin/install.js's installAgentsKindStandalone call site omitted the projectDir
argument the function already supports, so a global install through this
legacy branch silently fell back to the runtime config dir instead of
process.cwd() when resolving project-scoped agent_tools grants — inconsistent
with the sibling installOpencodeFamilyArtifacts call site, which already
threads it correctly.

appendAgentTools' leading-quoted-scalar bailout did not cover a YAML flow
sequence (`tools: [Bash, Read]`): splitToolScalars tore it apart on the
in-sequence commas and appended past its closing bracket, producing invalid
frontmatter. Extended the bailout regex to also refuse a value starting with
`[`, matching the same "whole node, nothing may follow" reasoning already
applied to quoted scalars.

77e2472ca0 enhance(#4221): replace installer Read() deny rules with a managed secret-read guard hook (#4236)
* feat(#4221): gsd-secret-read-guard PreToolUse hook + registration

Add hooks/gsd-secret-read-guard.js, a blocking PreToolUse guard on
Read|Grep|Bash that denies reads of .env, .env.<suffix> and .secrets
(the .env.example/.sample/.template/.dist templates stay readable).
Read checks file_path; Grep checks an explicit path and judges the glob
per brace alternative; Bash runs a two-pass token scan (quotes, comments,
redirects with fd digits, separators, $( )/backtick/<( ) recursion,
heredoc bodies never scanned as commands, nested bash -c/eval rescans,
git <ref>:<path> shapes) with a closed non-reading exemption set for
existence checks. Fail-open crash policy; 1 MiB commands are denied as
command-too-large; more than 64 glob alternatives as glob-too-complex.

Why: Claude Code 2.1.259 makes every `cd DIR && grep …` compound prompt
for approval whenever any Read() deny rule exists, even in auto mode. A
hook denial is not a permission rule and never arms that check. The
installer-written deny rules are retired in the follow-up commit.

Registration: hooks.json (Read|Grep|Bash, timeout 5), build-hooks
HOOKS_TO_COPY, managed-hooks-registry, runtime-hooks-surface (blocking
guard with BLOCKING_GUARD_TIMEOUT_S; Kimi ReadFile|Grep|Shell),
shell-command-projection managed sets, installer-migration-report,
OpenCode/Kilo plugin (grep tool mapping, include -> glob, dispatch),
docs tables in five locales, ADR-766 always-on list, regen:derived
fixtures, and a new table-driven unit suite.

* test(#4221): pin the secret-read guard in existing hook gates

Register gsd-secret-read-guard.js in every existing hook gate: the
hooks-crash-policy table (deny row; 6 -> 7 deny cases), plugin-manifest
REQUIRED_HOOKS and its Read|Grep|Bash group, docs-hooks-table-parity
EXPECTED_SURFACE_HOOKS, install.test MANAGED_JS_HOOKS, install-minimal-
hooks JS_HOOKS/BLOCKING_GUARDS, portable-node-runner GUARD_HOOKS,
kilo-upgrades PLUGIN_GUARD_HOOKS, the Kimi normalization-parity and
typed-payload floors, the OpenCode adapter (grep mapping, include ->
glob, three dispatch tests) and a Kimi TOML matcher assertion.

* fix(#4221): retire installer Read() deny rules (legacy filter)

Rename GSD_CLAUDE_DENY_PERMISSIONS to GSD_CLAUDE_LEGACY_DENY_PERMISSIONS
and stop adding the three Read(.env) / Read(.env.*) / Read(.secrets)
strings. mergeClaudePermissions now only filters them out of an existing
permissions.deny: an absent deny key stays absent, a malformed one is
still repaired to [], and an array emptied by the filter is deleted so
no `"deny": []` residue is left. Uninstall filters the same legacy list
and, symmetric with the Antigravity branch, drops an emptied allow or
deny key and an emptied permissions object.

Unlike the #2278 allow-side migration there is no surviving current
deny list, so the constant is renamed rather than mirrored. Removal is
byte-exact: a hand-written identical rule is indistinguishable from the
installer's and is removed too (the manifest never recorded permission
strings). USER-GUIDE and CONTEXT.md updated.

* test(#4221): flip install-regressions deny-rule assertions to the retired shape

The fresh-merge, non-destructive merge, idempotency, end-to-end install,
reinstall and uninstall assertions now expect no Read(.env*) deny rules
and no permissions.deny key on a fresh install; the deny:null repair case
is kept. A new describe block covers the legacy filter: retired strings

* chore(#4221): add changeset fragment for PR #4236

* fix(#4221): case-fold names; scan shell stdin and xargs pipes

Review round 1 (trek-e):

- Blocker: secret-name matching is now case-insensitive in the Read,
  Grep (path and glob) and Bash paths, so `.ENV` / `.Secrets` on a
  case-insensitive filesystem are recognized as the same secret file.
- Major: a shell interpreter's script is now scanned wherever it comes
  from. The tokenizer keeps heredoc bodies as per-segment tokens and
  records separator operators; pass 2 groups by segment id and resolves
  bash/sh/zsh/dash/ksh/su invocation mode: `-c` (including combined
  `-lc`) scans the script operand, a file operand is checked as a file
  (a `<( )` operand's echo/printf output is reconstructed), otherwise
  stdin is the script and heredocs, here-strings and a piped echo/printf
  source are scanned. `eval` joins all its operands; `source`/`.` handle
  process substitution. Data heredocs (`cat <<EOF`, the commit-message
  shape) stay unscanned.
- Major: `… | xargs <cmd>` checks the upstream segment's operands as
  file names when the sub-command reads (`echo .env | xargs cat`,
  `find . -name .env | xargs cat`); `-a`/`--arg-file` suppresses the
  inference; a shell sub-command's `-c` script is scanned.

Header, USER-GUIDE bullet and changeset updated; documented gaps now
include piped scripts from non-echo sources and `exec`/`timeout`
wrappers. 60 new suite cases pin the block and allow shapes.

c6efe2905c fix(#4087): stage the hook helpers the Codex bundle's hooks require (#4117)
* fix(#4087): stage the hook helpers the Codex bundle's hooks require

CODEX_HOOKS_TO_COPY is a flat, hand-maintained filename allowlist that never
recursed, and Codex is excluded from installSharedHooksBundle() — the path that
stages hooks/lib/ for full-bundle runtimes — by an !isCodex gate. Excluding
hooks/lib/ was a correct scoped decision for #3579 until #3911 (2ea5efc15) gave
gsd-context-monitor.js a real require('./lib/hook-exit.js'). From then on every
fresh --codex install staged the hook without its helper and the hook died with
MODULE_NOT_FOUND at module load, before its own try/catch, on every event Codex
registers it for. The install still exited 0, so nothing surfaced it.

Reproduced before changing anything, in a sandboxed CODEX_HOME: four hooks
staged, no lib/, and the installed hook exiting 1 on "Cannot find module
'./lib/hook-exit.js'".

Rather than hand-add today's three helpers — which re-breaks the next time a
Codex-bundled hook grows a lib dependency, exactly how this regressed — the
transitive-require walk already written for Cursor in 704859e9c is extracted out
of writeCursorHooksJson into an exported stageTransitiveHookLibs(), Cursor is
rewired onto it, and the Codex copy loop calls it. bin/install.js already
required that module, so this adds no new seam. Cursor's staged set is
byte-identical to base, compared file by file.

Extraction surfaced a latent defect in that walker, fixed here: its regex read
`./X` and `./lib/X` identically, but from a hook SCRIPT a bare `./X` is a
sibling in hooks/ — gsd-check-update-worker.js requires
`./managed-hooks-registry.cjs`, which is not a lib — so it demanded
hooks/lib/managed-hooks-registry.cjs and the fail-loud guard threw. Seeds now
match only `./lib/X`; lib files still match both, which is the
sibling-within-lib case 704859e9c exists for. Cursor never exposed it because
none of its scripts carries a bare sibling require.

Three further grammar gaps closed after review, each in the fail-closed
direction: an extensionless `require('./lib/x')` is valid CommonJS and was
resolved literally, failing the install on a legitimate require — now resolved
through .js/.cjs and written under its resolved name; a NESTED `./lib/sub/x.js`
could not be expressed by the character class and was a SILENT miss, the one
failure mode this function exists to remove — now refused loudly; and a capture
carrying no alphanumeric character is prose, not a module name — hooks/lib/
injection-patterns.js documents this very mechanism with the literal string
require('./lib/...'), which captured `...` and sent the resolver hunting for
hooks/lib/... . The scan is still not comment-aware, which is disclosed at the
call site rather than papered over.

Seeded from the entries THIS invocation staged rather than probing the
destination, so a file left by an earlier install whose source is no longer
allowlisted cannot contribute helpers for a hook that is no longer shipped.

The #3579 boundary holds: three of ten helpers ship, gsd-graphify-rebuild.sh
among those correctly absent. Seven rows — three driving a real install into a
sandboxed config dir (with HOME sandboxed for the child, since Codex's skills
kind resolves from os.homedir() and the #3712 guard rightly refuses otherwise)
and four pinning the discovery grammar directly. All proven fail-first; the
set-equality row also reds on over-staging, which the count-based version it
replaced did not catch.

Fixes #4087
Fixes #4098

* fix(#4087): stage the hooks/lib helpers the Windsurf guards require

Review of #4117, verified as asked and reproduced against a real install.

Windsurf sets hostBehaviors.skipSharedHooksInstall, so like Cursor it never
reaches installSharedHooksBundle -- the only other stager of hooks/lib --
and writeWindsurfHooksJson staged its two Cascade guards without the
helpers both require at module load: gsd-windsurf-pre-write.js requires
./lib/hook-exit.js and ./lib/git-probe.js, gsd-windsurf-pre-command.js
requires ./lib/hook-exit.js. stageTransitiveHookLibs had one call site,
Cursor's.

Measured on a fresh `--windsurf --global` install into a sandboxed HOME:
the installer exited 0, hooks/ held only the two scripts and package.json,
and executing either installed guard exited 1 with "Cannot find module
'./lib/hook-exit.js'" -- so every pre_write_code and pre_run_command event
failed at load while the install reported success. The same command with
`--cursor` staged four helpers and its hook ran, which is the control.

Pre-existing rather than introduced here: at merge-base 05092ff36 the same
three require lines exist and writeWindsurfHooksJson already staged no
lib/, and this PR's diff carried no reference to Windsurf. Fixed here
anyway because the helper this PR extracted is the right tool and a second
runtime is a few lines onto it.

writeWindsurfHooksJson now calls stageTransitiveHookLibs after staging its
scripts, with the same gsd: -> gsd- transform the scripts receive, so a
helper is rewritten the same way as its caller. The install-tree fixture
regenerates with exactly hook-exit.js, git-probe.js, cli-exit.js and
exit-code-registry.js added and no other fixture moved. Two rows execute
the INSTALLED guards, beside the Codex rows they mirror; the existing
windsurf-hooks-bridge rows run the guards from source and test behaviour,
a different question, and are left as they are. Both new rows fail-first
against the unfixed compiled artifact -- gsd-core/bin/lib, which is what
bin/install.js loads -- on the MODULE_NOT_FOUND assertion.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Hash: hooks/lib/git-probe.js — first staged for Windsurf, whose pre-write guard requires it; the file itself is unchanged

cad70f4f3e fix(#4120): replace shellcheck npm dep with dependency-free downloader (#4121)
* fix(#4120): replace shellcheck npm dep with dependency-free downloader

The `shellcheck` devDependency (added in #4109) pulled in decompress@4.2.1
for archive extraction, which carries an unpatched CRITICAL zip-slip
vulnerability (GHSA-mp2f-45pm-3cg9, CVSS 9.1) plus two moderate findings.
decompress's latest published version IS the vulnerable one -- no patched
release exists upstream, so npm audit fix cannot resolve this by upgrading.

Removes the shellcheck package entirely and replaces its role with
scripts/lib/shellcheck-fetch.cjs: a small downloader using only Node's
built-in https/zlib plus a hand-written tar-entry reader, fetching a pinned
koalaman/shellcheck release directly from GitHub releases. The reader never
uses an archive-supplied name as a filesystem path (the exact defect class
decompress had) -- it only returns the matched entry's bytes; the caller
writes those bytes to a path it constructs itself. Bounds the download with
a 30s-per-hop timeout, consistent with the ShellCheck subprocess's own
timeout. Covers linux/darwin on x86_64/aarch64, matching this repo's actual
CI (lint-tests runs only on ubuntu-latest) and local dev needs; Windows
fails with a clear, honest error rather than silently misbehaving.

Adds tests/lint-workflow-shellcheck-fetch.test.cjs covering the tar-parser
(unit cases plus a fast-check property test per CLAUDE.md's parser-testing
requirement), a security behavioral pin confirming traversal-style entry
names are treated as opaque strings never filesystem paths, and boundary
coverage for the redirect-following logic's MAX_REDIRECTS limit
(limit-1/limit/limit+1, via an injectable transport, no real network I/O).

npm audit: 0 vulnerabilities (was 1 critical + 5 moderate). The lint script
reproduces the identical result against the current tree:
"212 pre-existing finding(s) from baseline, 0 new" -- no behavior
regression, no baseline changes needed.

* fix(#4120): register shellcheck-fetch.cjs with the installer

scripts/lib/shellcheck-fetch.cjs shipped without being added to
GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES in bin/install.js, which would have left it orphaned
on uninstall and broken the golden install-tree fixtures for every runtime.
Adds the entry and regenerates the 19 affected fixtures via
npm run gen:install-tree.

370cfc6680 enhance(#4036): persist CI shard/job timeout-vs-cap trending, warn at 90% (#4043)
* feat(#4036): persist CI shard/job timeout-vs-cap trending, warn at 90%

Adds two new mechanisms plus an audit-coverage extension:

- scripts/lib/ci-job-timing.cjs: shared elapsed-vs-cap arithmetic
- scripts/ci-check-job-near-cap.cjs: in-job advisory near-cap check,
  wired into test/test-full/mutate/smoke as each job's last step
- scripts/ci-timeout-report.cjs + .github/workflows/ci-timeout-report.yml:
  scheduled REST-API poll that appends new records to
  tests/ci-timeout-budget-history.jsonl and opens a small data-only PR
- tests/ci-test-job-timeout-budget.test.cjs: extended to cover mutate
  (mutation.yml) and smoke (install-smoke.yml), which previously had no
  headroom-factor gate coverage at all

Does not change any timeout-minutes value, shard composition, or shard-1
contents — those stay maintainer policy calls per the issue's own scope.

* fix(#4036): address two-orthogonal-review findings

- Parity tests guarding the two hand-duplicated literals this design
  cannot single-source through GH Actions YAML: CI_JOB_TIMEOUT_MINUTES
  vs each job's own timeout-minutes, and ci-timeout-report.cjs's
  JOB_RULES name-prefixes vs each job's actual name: template.
- Thread run.event through as runEvent on every persisted record, so
  PR-context and push-context install-smoke timings (genuinely
  different matrix shape) are distinguishable in the history rather
  than silently conflated under one job name.
- Replace the Windows near-cap start-time step's ambiguous PowerShell
  +/>> precedence with GitHub's documented string-interpolation form.
- Move github.run_id out of direct ${{ }} shell interpolation into an
  env: var in the new scheduled workflow, per this repo's own
  expression-injection-safe convention.

* test(#4036): regenerate golden install-tree fixtures for scripts/lib/ci-job-timing.cjs

npm run gen:install-tree — scripts/ ships wholesale into the installed
package (per ADR/known-defect precedent from #4012's own PR history: a
new scripts/lib/*.cjs file needs its golden entry regenerated or every
runtime's install-tree test fails). Confirmed via gsd-test: this was the
sole cause of the first real verification run's 25 failures (all in
tests/golden-install-tree.test.cjs, one per runtime). Top-level
scripts/*.cjs files (ci-check-job-near-cap.cjs, ci-timeout-report.cjs)
are not individually tracked in these fixtures — consistent with every
other existing top-level scripts/*.cjs file, so no entry was expected
or added for those two.

* fix(#4036): register new lib file with installer, fix H1 shell policy

- bin/install.js: add ci-job-timing.cjs to GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES (a
  hand-maintained registry, not generated — tests/install.test.cjs
  asserts every scripts/lib/ file is enumerated here)
- test.yml: replace the two OS-conditional "Record job start time"
  step pairs (test + test-full jobs) with a single unconditional
  `node -e` step. The prior pair's Windows variant declared an
  explicit shell: pwsh, which scripts/workflow-policy.cjs's H1 checker
  statically flags against every OS a job's matrix can realize,
  independent of the step's own if: gate. A single Node one-liner
  needs no shell override at all — it's syntactically valid and
  behaves identically under bash, zsh, and pwsh — which is both H1
  compliant and removes the last OS-specific shell syntax from this
  change entirely.

Both defects were found by a real gsd-test run, not local gates —
lint:ci and build:lib were clean throughout because neither the
scripts/lib/ install-manifest parity check nor the H1 shell-policy
baseline runs as part of lint:ci; both are gsd-test-only suites.

* docs(#4036): how-to for reading CI timeout budget signals

The phase-gate docs check correctly flagged the enablement sequence as
3 real steps (read the near-cap warning, find the accumulated trend
file, pick the right maintainer lever) — a reference table can't carry
a sequence. Adds docs/how-to/read-ci-timeout-signals.md, indexed from
docs/README.md.

0abd137ec7 fix(#4012): the events reporter has to survive SIGKILL
The remote run proved the instrumentation did not work. Timing landed —
"chunk 1/1 was killed after 2006ms" — but the in-flight-file naming produced
nothing and fell through to the pre-existing generic message. The feature I
wrote to diagnose a kill was itself destroyed by the kill.

Root cause, confirmed rather than assumed. The reporter yielded strings, which
node pipes into the --test-reporter-destination WriteStream. That stream
BUFFERS. execFileSync's timeout sends SIGKILL, which is uncatchable and gives
nothing a chance to flush, so the events sat in a buffer that died with the
child. The parent's own timer reported correctly because it lives in the
parent — which is exactly why half the feature looked fine.

The reporter now writes each event with fs.appendFileSync, unbuffered and
durable at the moment it happens, to a path passed through
GSD_RUN_TESTS_EVENTS_FILE. Env vars do not count toward the Windows
32,767-char argv ceiling, so moving the path out of argv also REDUCES
FIXED_OVERHEAD; the accounting moved with it rather than being left stale. The
destination is now a fixed devNull sink that stays empty by design.

Silence was the reason this was invisible for a whole run. Failing to read the
events file now says so explicitly, and distinguishes a file that could not be
read at all from one that exists but is empty — the generic fallback firing
quietly is what let a broken feature look like a working one. A write is
unbuffered but not atomic, so a kill can still interleave a partial line; the
reader tolerates exactly one unparsable trailing line and reports the complete
ones before it.

The failing T1 was left red and untouched rather than weakened to pass. Three
new unit tests cover the reader directly, with no subprocess, so the parsing
half is verifiable without a full runner pass: missing file, existing-but-empty
file, and a truncated final line.

Also adds ndjson-reporter.cjs to GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES in bin/install.js —
scripts/lib/ ships, and omitting it meant the file would install everywhere and
orphan on uninstall. That single omission caused 4 of the 7 remote failures.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

e9868a92ba fix(#1875): route installer settings/defaults writes through atomic, lock-guarded primitives (#3966)
* fix(#1875): route writeSettings through atomicWriteFileSync

writeSettings is the sole writer of settings.json/settings.local.json for
six runtimes and wrote them with a naked fs.writeFileSync. Hosts discard the
entire settings file on any parse failure, so a crash mid-write cost the user
every hook, permission, env var, and statusline they had — not just GSD's.

Route it through the atomicWriteFileSync (temp+rename) already used elsewhere
in the installer and already bound in this file.

withWriteFailure in the migration integration harness matched only the final
destination path, so an atomic write bypassed the injection entirely and turned
a rollback assertion into a vacuous pass. It now also matches the .tmp- sibling.

* fix(#1876): honor the readSettings null contract in the #338 local-merge leg

readSettings returns null only for an unparseable file — its documented
"preserve existing, don't touch" signal. The #338 migration coerced that null
to {} and wrote the result back, so a settings.local.json with one stray comma
lost all its non-GSD content on the next install.

The guard stands the whole migration down rather than just the local write:
skipping the merge while still stripping the shared file would destroy the GSD
entries outright instead of relocating them.

Aborting here reaches a pre-existing latent crash that the clobber had been
masking. Both are fixed, with their own regression test:

- the unparseable-settings guard returned bare `undefined` while all five
  sibling early exits return the full result shape, so installAllRuntimes'
  statusline lookup (results.find(r => r.runtime)) threw;
- handleStatusline dereferences result.settings, which is null on every early
  exit, so the call site now falls through to the banner branch.

Both crashes reproduce on unmodified next with a malformed settings.local.json
and no migration involved.

* fix(#1877): lock and atomically write the machine-global ~/.gsd/defaults.json

Every non-Claude install read-modify-writes ~/.gsd/defaults.json with no lock
and two separate naked whole-file writes. The file is read by every runtime and
project on the machine, so concurrent installs lost each other's key, and a
crash in either write window truncated it — silently, because the read path
swallows parse errors and treats a corrupt file as absent.

Take the existing acquireInstallMigrationLock around the read-modify-write and
apply both mutations in one atomicWriteFileSync. An install that changes nothing
no longer rewrites the file at all.

Existing semantics are unchanged: the explicit resolve_model_ids:true opt-in
(#1569) and an existing "omit" are preserved, non-canonical values still default
to "omit" (#1156), a pre-existing runtime string is preserved (#2395), the
malformed-non-object recovery (#1657) stands, and both console lines still print
when both keys change.

The #2834 structural test sliced a fixed 1200-character window from the function
source; the added lock comment pushed an asserted token past it. The window now
tracks the function body, so a comment or guard cannot red it spuriously.

9410f7e6e6 enhance(#3897): ADR-3473 §8.3 rungs 2-4 — runtime marker, derived Codex sandbox, short-form depends_on (#3941)
* test(#3897): failing-first coverage for §8.3 rungs 2-4

ADR-3473 §8.3 has four rungs; #3883/PR #3896 shipped the first. This pins the
other three RED before any fix.

Rung 2 — the install marker has four readers and resolveRuntime is not one.

  resolveRuntime resolves GSD_RUNTIME > config.runtime > 'claude' and reads no
  marker at all, while bin/install.js writes one (#2297) and FOUR hand-rolled
  readInstallRuntimeMarker copies exist: src/model-resolver.cts:65 (cached, with
  test seams), hooks/gsd-agent-isolation-guard.js:112, and TWICE in
  hooks/gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js at :346 and :355. Four copies of one rule.

  Fixtures and seam names mined from PR #3382 rather than re-derived; it
  implemented this rung and was closed "not on the merits".

Rung 3 — the sandbox map, and the fallback that was the real defect.

  Measured across all 35 files in agents/, deriving workspace-write iff tools:
  declares Write or Edit:

    - all 11 CODEX_AGENT_SANDBOX entries derive to their mapped value exactly,
      zero disagreements — the map carries nothing the contract does not
    - 24 roles fall through `|| 'read-only'`, of which 16 declare Write or Edit

  So the map is redundant and the silent fallback is the defect. The maintainer
  chose to derive but hold those 16 at read-only pending the question of whether
  Codex enforces sandbox_mode or merely advises; HALT.md records it.

  T20 asserts the emitted sandbox_mode PER ROLE against a captured baseline, not
  in aggregate — an aggregate passes while one role silently widens, which is
  the proxy-instead-of-identity shape this repo names. T24 and T25 fail on a
  stale hold, so the hold list cannot rot into the subset map being deleted.

Rung 4 — shortFormToId, recovered rather than invented.

  I nearly reported this as another wrong §8.3 claim: `git log -S shortFormToId`
  returns only documentation commits. That was the wrong instrument. Direct
  inspection of sdk/src/query/phase.ts at 11918dcc3^ shows five occurrences, and
  the tests match that code rather than a guess at its semantics — including
  first-write-wins on a duplicate short form.

  T43 asserts at the consumer's output: the emitted `waves` map from the real
  CLI, which pre-fix collapses to {"1":[...]} because every short-form edge is
  dropped. A unit assertion on resolveDependencyId would have passed throughout
  this defect's life.

Observed RED, this tree:
  rung 2   11/11 fail — no marker rung, no seams
  rung 3   T23,T24,T25,T26,T30 fail; T28 fails (validate agents passes a TOML
           whose sandbox_mode disagrees — it checks presence only)
  rung 4   T42,T44 fail; T43,T49 fail with waves collapsed to a single wave 1

Green and staying green: T20/T21/T22/T27 as captured baselines, #3885's
unresolvable-token warning and wave-verdict suppression, and #3785's
display-mapping passthrough. If the third tier over-reaches, those go red — that
is their job.

Disclosed weakness: T45 (a canonical id with no dash is not short-form indexed)
cannot be isolated behaviorally, because planMap always masks it. It is a
non-crash boundary pin, weaker than the other rows, and is recorded as such
rather than presented as equivalent.

* enhance(#3897): §8.3 rungs 2-4 — one marker reader, a derived sandbox, the third depends_on tier

ADR-3473 §8.3 has four rungs. #3883/PR #3896 shipped the first. These are the
other three.

Rung 2 — the install marker had four readers, and resolveRuntime was not one.

  resolveRuntime resolved GSD_RUNTIME > config.runtime > 'claude' and read no
  marker, while bin/install.js writes one (#2297) and four hand-rolled
  readInstallRuntimeMarker copies existed: src/model-resolver.cts (cached, with
  seams), hooks/gsd-agent-isolation-guard.js, and twice in
  hooks/gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js.

  model-resolver's was already the house idiom, so it was promoted rather than
  replaced: src/runtime-slash.cts now owns it, and model-resolver plus both
  hooks delegate. The hooks reach it through ensureRuntimeBuild(), the seam
  lint-hooks-runtime-build-seam enforces. No import cycle existed - checked
  both directions before moving anything.

  The marker is the THIRD rung: env > project config > marker > 'claude'.

  N1 was checked rather than assumed, and my first reading of it was wrong. A
  marker holding an unknown name comes back essentially verbatim, which looked
  like a validation gap. Measured against the env rung with the same inputs -
  including "../../etc/passwd" and "claude;rm -rf /" - the two are identical,
  because they share resolveRuntimeNameFromCandidates. N1 asks for exactly that,
  and it is met. The residual (the shared normalizer normalizes shape, it does
  not validate against the known-runtime set) is pre-existing on the env rung
  and plausibly deliberate, since a new runtime should not need a code change.
  The marker also does not widen the trust boundary in any real sense: it lives
  inside the install tree beside the code, so anyone who can write it can write
  runtime-slash.cjs itself.

Rung 3 — the map was redundant; the silent fallback was the defect.

  Measured across all 35 files in agents/, deriving workspace-write iff tools:
  declares Write or Edit: all 11 CODEX_AGENT_SANDBOX entries derive to their
  mapped value exactly, zero disagreements. The map carried nothing the contract
  did not already have, so it is DELETED rather than reconciled. What was
  actually broken is `|| 'read-only'`, which silently under-granted 24 of 35
  roles.

  16 of those 24 declare Write or Edit and would widen under derivation. Per the
  maintainer's decision (HALT.md), they are held at read-only pending the
  question of whether Codex enforces sandbox_mode or merely advises. Emitted
  TOML is therefore byte-identical for all 35 roles - asserted per role, not in
  aggregate, because an aggregate passes while one role silently widens.

  The hold list self-invalidates. A hold whose role no longer derives broader
  fails, and so does a hold naming a role with no agents/<name>.md. Without
  that it would rot into exactly the hand-maintained subset map being deleted,
  and this commit's own ledger claim would become false over time. Both cases
  were proved by injecting them and watching them throw.

  Two committed tests asserted the deleted map's existence and contents. They
  were pinning the thing being removed, so the tests moved rather than the
  production code: the 11 role-value pairs survive as a test-local
  PRE_3897_CODEX_AGENT_SANDBOX baseline, and the assertions now drive the real
  derivation against real agents/*.md. The coverage is preserved; only its
  source moved out of production code.

  validate agents gains checkCodexSandboxPosture, mirroring the existing
  checkCodexModelPosture: each installed TOML's sandbox_mode must equal the
  role's expected value, failing with role, expected and found. It previously
  checked file presence and manifest completeness only, so a TOML whose
  sandbox_mode disagreed passed.

Rung 4 — shortFormToId, recovered rather than invented.

  I nearly reported this as another wrong §8.3 claim: git log -S returns only
  documentation commits. Wrong instrument. sdk/src/query/phase.ts at 11918dcc3^
  carries five occurrences, and the implementation here matches that code rather
  than a guess at its semantics - including first-write-wins on a duplicate
  short form, deterministic from the sorted plan order.

  It resolves the bare plan number: depends_on: ["01"] now reaches
  26-01-auth-hardening. That is a control-flow change, not a diagnostic one -
  plans that silently collapsed into a single wave 1 now execute in their
  declared waves, and execute-phase.md consumes those wave values.

  In-phase only, by construction: the map is built from this phase's rawPlans,
  so a same-named short form in another phase does not resolve.

  #3785's display-mapping passthrough and #3885's unresolvable-token warning and
  wave-verdict suppression are untouched and stay green. If the third tier had
  over-reached, those are what would have caught it.

* fix(#3897): close a fail-open I introduced, and wire the posture check to its command

Two blockers from review. Both are mine, and one is a security regression my own
change created.

1. A held role could escape its hold by editing its own frontmatter.

  The Codex install loop set the sandbox identity from the agent's frontmatter
  `name:` field rather than from its filename, so the hold lookup keyed off a
  value the file itself declares:

    deriveCodexSandboxMode('gsd-doc-writer',   <real file>)          -> read-only
    deriveCodexSandboxMode('gsd-doc-writer-x', <same file, name: edited>) -> workspace-write
    deriveCodexSandboxMode('GSD-Doc-Writer',   <same file, name: recased>) -> workspace-write

  What makes this a blocker rather than a nit is the DIRECTION. The deleted
  CODEX_AGENT_SANDBOX map had the identical lookup-key quirk, but it was an
  allowlist: an unmatched key fell back to read-only, which is safe. The new
  scheme derives workspace-write from the tool contract and uses the hold as a
  subtraction, so the same mismatch fails OPEN. I converted a fail-closed quirk
  into a fail-open one and did not notice; the isolated reviewer proved it by
  execution.

  Neither safety net caught it. validateCodexSandboxHolds only checks that
  <key>.md exists, never that a file's derived identity matches its key.
  checkCodexSandboxPosture looks the canonical source up by the installed TOML's
  filename, finds nothing for a renamed agent, and treats it as a custom
  non-roster agent — silently no violation.

  The identity is now the FILENAME STEM, which is what validateCodexSandboxHolds
  already validates and what an attacker editing frontmatter cannot change
  without renaming the file — at which point the existing validator catches it.
  The lookup is case-insensitive so a recase does not slip past either. The
  frontmatter name still drives the TOML body and filename, unchanged; only the
  sandbox identity moved.

  All 35 roster files were checked: name matches filename stem everywhere, so a
  stricter "they must agree or throw" invariant would have been safe against real
  content. It is deliberately NOT added — it would abort an install on a tampered
  file where emitting a correctly-derived read-only TOML is the safer outcome.
  Recorded as a fork rather than decided silently.

2. checkCodexSandboxPosture was exported and never called.

  cmdValidateAgents (src/verify.cts) called checkAgentsInstalled and
  checkCodexModelPosture only; grep for the sandbox check in that file returned
  nothing. So criterion 3 — "validate agents fails on semantic drift, not only on
  missing files" — was unmet, and `validate agents` behaved exactly as before.
  That is ADR-3473 Decision 2's named shape: a declared policy with no executor.

  It also meant the T28 test asserted at the helper's return value while the
  COMMAND stayed broken — the ADR-3180 Decision 4(b) failure this epic exists to
  close, committed by me while enforcing it elsewhere in the same epic.

  Now wired as an additive `sandbox_posture` field beside `codex_posture`,
  following the sibling precedent exactly. Drift is report-only, not a non-zero
  exit, because that is what checkCodexModelPosture does — two sibling posture
  checks disagreeing about whether a violation is fatal would be its own defect.
  The choice is recorded in a comment rather than left implicit. A consumer-output
  test now drives the real CLI and asserts on the emitted JSON, and was shown
  failing before the wiring and passing after.

Also corrected a stale artifact: the design's Known limit L1 still claimed rung 3
was not in this deliverable, written while it was halted and false once the
maintainer unblocked it.

Verified after both fixes: the three bypass probes all return read-only, the
per-role table is 35/35 byte-identical, and both hold self-invalidation cases
still throw.

* docs(#3897): the marker rung, the derived sandbox, and the bare plan-number depends_on

Reference: the runtime precedence ladder in docs/CLI-TOOLS.md gains the install
marker rung; docs/COMMANDS.md documents validate agents' new sandbox_posture
field; docs/reference/plan-md.md documents that depends_on accepts the bare plan
number.

Explanation: a docs/features fragment keyed id 3897, so it cannot collide with a
concurrent PR hand-allocating a section number, regenerated into FEATURES.md.

ADR-3473 §8.3 gains an ANSWER blockquote in the document's own correction style,
recording what was measured and built against the section's 2026-08-26 correction
- including the qualification that checkAgentsInstalled itself still checks
presence only, and the semantic assertion lives in a sibling wired into validate
agents rather than folded into it.

No how-to. Both user-visible changes are zero-step: a non-Claude install resolving
its own runtime, and plans executing in their declared waves, both happen without
the user doing anything. docs/how-to/control-the-reported-host-runtime.md covers a
DIFFERENT ladder (resolveReportedRuntime / agent_runtime) that this change does
not touch, and was deliberately left alone rather than edited by association.

No tutorial - nothing multi-step to walk through. docs/AGENTS.md unchanged: it
documents Claude-side tools frontmatter, never Codex sandbox_mode, and the
emitted tools contract did not change.

The prompt layer documents depends_on only by example, not by schema, so nothing
there needed editing - and few-shot-examples/plan-checker.md already showed
depends_on: ['01'], which now actually resolves.

Translated copies of plan-md.md are untouched; the project treats translations as
community-maintained.

* fix(#3897): move the sandbox derivation out of the installer, off the install path, and off a third parser

The full suite came back with 26 failures across four files. Three distinct
causes, mapped individually rather than assuming the first explained the rest.

A. Requiring bin/install.js printed the GSD banner to stdout and corrupted
   `validate agents` JSON.

     Unexpected token '', "[36m   ██"... is not valid JSON

   checkCodexSandboxPosture reached deriveCodexSandboxMode by lazily requiring
   bin/install.js, whose module load prints the ASCII banner. So the command
   emitted banner bytes before its JSON and every JSON consumer broke, including
   ten tests that predate this branch. src/ reaching into bin/ was backwards
   layering that happened to also be loud.

   The derivation now lives in src/codex-agent-toml.cts - the existing Codex TOML
   domain module, no new module and no six-gate ripple - and both bin/install.js
   and src/agent-install-check.cts import it. One owner, which is §8.3's rule
   applied to the fix for §8.3.

B. The stale-hold throw fired on a legitimate partial source dir, and masked a
   security assertion.

   validateCodexSandboxHolds treated "this hold's .md is absent from the install
   SOURCE dir" as a stale hold and threw. A test fixture, or any partial install
   source, legitimately contains a couple of agents. Worse, it threw BEFORE the
   path-escape check, so a test asserting that a `../../evil` frontmatter name is
   rejected got my unrelated error instead of the traversal rejection it was
   written for. A fail-closed check of mine was hiding a real security check.

   The "no stale holds, shrink-only" invariant is a property of the repo's
   canonical agents/ roster, not of whatever directory an install happens to read.
   It is off the runtime path and enforced where it belongs, in the tests that
   already existed for it. A partial source dir now installs cleanly, and the
   evil-name case throws with its own escapes-configHome message again.

C. T8 depended on ambient process.env state.

   The marker/env parity assertion round-tripped through live process.env. It now
   compares against resolveExplicitRuntime's already-exported dependency-injection
   parameter - deterministic and hermetic, same claim. Proven still falsifiable
   rather than assumed: with the marker rung's normalization temporarily bypassed
   the two rungs diverge ("codex\n../../etc/passwd" vs "codex-../../etc/passwd")
   and the assertion fails, then passes again once reverted.

One correction folded in along the way. The first version of the move added
private _extractFrontmatterAndBody/_extractFrontmatterField helpers to
codex-agent-toml.cts - a THIRD copy of frontmatter extraction, where the graph
already shows two (bin/install.js:2348, runtime-artifact-conversion.cts:893).
Adding a third inside the epic whose thesis is one implementation per rule is not
defensible. deriveCodexSandboxMode no longer parses anything: it takes
(identity, toolsValue) and each caller supplies the tools value using the
extractor it already has. Both helpers are deleted. The identity argument is
still the filename stem, so the fail-open fix is untouched.

Verified after all three: `validate agents --raw` emits parseable JSON with no
banner and both posture fields; the four hold-bypass probes still return
read-only; the per-role table is 35/35 byte-identical at 26 read-only / 9
workspace-write; the hold list is still 16.

* fix(#3897): drop a dev-only transitive dep, make the derivation total, retire a stale fallback test

Suite down to 7 failures from 26. Three more causes, mapped individually.

A. My extractor import dragged in a script that does not exist in an installed
   tree.

     Cannot find module '../../../scripts/fix-slash-commands.cjs'

   Chain: src/agent-install-check.cts imported runtime-artifact-conversion.cjs,
   which requires command-roster.cjs, whose line 36 requires
   ../../../scripts/fix-slash-commands.cjs. That path exists in the repo and not
   in an install, so every test exercising a synthetic install dir died at module
   load. I picked that extractor for convenience without checking what it pulls
   in - the same mistake that produced the banner bug, one layer further out.

   agent-install-check now uses a single-purpose extractToolsLine on
   codex-agent-toml.cts. That is deliberately NOT a general frontmatter parser:
   we deleted those helpers a commit ago for good reason, and this reads one
   line. Verified from outside the repo root that requiring either module prints
   nothing and does not throw.

B. A test pinned the deleted name-based fallback.

   'defaults unknown agents to read-only' called generateCodexAgentToml with a
   fixture declaring tools: Read, Write, Edit. Under derivation an unknown agent
   with a writing contract correctly derives workspace-write - design row S6, a
   new writing role gets the contract, not the pin. The behavior it asserted was
   the silent fallback this rung deleted; identity no longer decides the sandbox.

   Replaced with two rows rather than a flipped string: no tools declared ->
   read-only (absence is not a grant), and Write/Edit declared -> workspace-write.
   Strictly more coverage than the row it replaces.

C. The stale-hold check still threw per derivation call.

   Last commit took the roster-existence check off the install path, but
   deriveCodexSandboxMode itself still threw when a hold's role did not derive
   broader FOR THE CONTENT IT WAS HANDED - so it fired on any synthetic fixture
   for a held role.

   The throw is gone, and it cost nothing: if a held role's content does not
   derive broader, the hold pins read-only and derivation returns read-only
   anyway, so the hold is a no-op and there is nothing to fail about. The
   staleness invariant is a property of the real agents/ roster, and
   validateCodexSandboxHolds still enforces it there - confirmed against the real
   roster after the change, not assumed.

   deriveCodexSandboxMode is now total: every (identity, toolsValue) including
   undefined and null returns read-only or workspace-write, never throws.

Verified: validate agents emits parseable JSON; the four hold-bypass probes
return read-only; the per-role table is 35/35 at 26 read-only / 9
workspace-write.

* docs(#3897): put the rung-3 decision in the shipped docs instead of pointing at an ignored path

The ADR entry and the feature fragment both ended their rung-3 explanation with
"see .gsd/phase/feat-3897-adr3473-83-rungs/45-decision-rung3-sandbox.md". That
directory is gitignored (.gitignore:55), so the rationale for holding 16 roles at
read-only was reachable only from the machine that produced it. A reader of the
ADR got a pointer to nothing.

Both now carry the reasoning inline: the criterion asks both that the sandbox
derive from the declared tool contract and that no role gain a broader sandbox,
and those cannot both hold, because a faithful derivation widens 16 roles the
deleted map never listed and that fell through its silent read-only default. The
resolution is derive-and-hold - the derivation owns the rule now, each hold is
released as its enforcement question is answered, and a hold is reversible where
a widened sandbox that turns out to be enforced is not.

Checked before assuming this was a defect class: CONTEXT.md cites
.gsd/phase/<slug>/40-design.md as its standard Design: provenance line in eight
module entries, and four other shipped docs do the same. Citing a phase artifact
is an established convention here, so those are left alone. What was wrong was
specific to these two: they put load-bearing rationale behind the pointer instead
of provenance.

docs/FEATURES.md regenerated from the fragment via scripts/gen-features.cjs
rather than hand-edited.

* fix(#3897): close a fail-open, stop a silent mis-resolution, and read a declaration as a declaration

Two orthogonal reviews on the shipped sha. Three of the findings are the same
failure class this epic exists to close, committed inside it.

1. BLOCKER - the sandbox was decided for one identity and applied to another.

   bin/install.js derived sandbox_mode for the filename stem and then wrote the
   result to `${name}.toml`, where name comes from the file's own frontmatter.
   Make the two disagree and a HELD role's artifact goes wide:

     rename gsd-doc-writer.md -> gsd-doc-writer-v2.md, keep name: gsd-doc-writer
       -> stem is unheld, derives workspace-write, lands on gsd-doc-writer.toml
     add any gsd-*.md whose frontmatter name: is a held role
       -> clobbers that role's toml with workspace-write

   Both emit read-only on origin/next, because the deleted map was an allowlist
   and a miss fell back safe. This is a regression my change introduced. The
   previous review round moved the HOLD KEY off frontmatter to the filename stem
   and left the OUTPUT PATH on frontmatter; my own comment at install.js:6985
   calls that value attacker-editable, four lines above the line that uses it as
   the filename.

   The decision is now made over BOTH candidate identities, most-restrictive
   wins: if either the stem or the emitted name is held, the mode is read-only.

2. MAJOR - hold matching was toLowerCase() only, so confusables escaped.

   Turkish dotted/dotless i, fullwidth, NFD, trailing space/NBSP/dot/newline,
   ./ and ../agents/ all slipped the hold and emitted workspace-write.
   Identities are now basenamed, trimmed of NBSP/zero-width/control characters,
   NFKC-normalized and lowercased - and anything still carrying a character
   outside [a-z0-9._-] is treated as suspicious and derives read-only. We do not
   enumerate confusables; every shipped roster file is ASCII, so refusing to
   widen on an identity we cannot recognize is fail-closed with no false
   positives on real content.

3. MAJOR - the short-form depends_on tier mis-resolved SILENTLY.

   shortFormToId keyed on the last dash-segment of any canonical id with no
   constraint that it is a plan number, so a phase holding 09-FIX-auth-PLAN.md
   made depends_on: ["auth"] bind at wave 2 with zero warnings. This is the
   worst shape in the epic: the unresolvable-token warning fires on a DROPPED
   token, so a MIS-RESOLVED one is invisible and the tool reports a confident
   wave assignment built from a wrong edge. A wrong edge is worse than a missing
   one.

   The segment must now match /^\d+$/, which is exactly the contract
   docs/reference/plan-md.md already documents. This tier was recovered verbatim
   from the retired SDK lineage, which carried the same defect; we are
   deliberately NOT preserving it bug-for-bug, and the comment says so, so the
   next reader does not "restore" it.

4. MAJOR - the derivation was reading a declaration as an absence.

   extractToolsLine read one line, so a YAML list-form tools: block returned only
   its first item. Two roster files use list form, and gsd-nyquist-auditor
   declares Write and Edit there - parsed as "- Read", found no write tool, and
   emitted read-only. Rung 3's headline claim is that sandbox_mode derives from
   the declared tool contract; that claim was false for 2 of 35 roles and
   materially wrong for 1. Reading a declaration as an absence is the silent-drop
   class this epic exists to close.

   Renamed extractToolsValue and taught it both shapes. gsd-nyquist-auditor now
   derives workspace-write and joins CODEX_SANDBOX_HOLDS as its 17th entry, per
   the standing derive-and-hold decision - so emitted TOML stays byte-identical
   at 26 read-only / 9 workspace-write while the hold list finally records every
   role that would widen. A previous pass declined this fix because it moved the
   count; that inverts the priority. Byte-identity is preserved THROUGH the hold,
   not by leaving a parser broken.

   Divergence check, because this is where that bug hides: both paths feeding
   sandbox derivation - install.js's emitter and checkCodexSandboxPosture - now
   route through the one extractor. The tools readers in
   runtime-artifact-conversion and install.js's other frontmatter call sites
   serve Claude-side emission and do not feed sandbox derivation.

Also fixed, each real: the posture check's `found` used a naive whole-file regex
where its own sibling uses the block-aware scanner, so prose inside
developer_instructions produced a false violation; `found` skipped
truncatePostureValue and leaked a 300-char value into validate agents output;
deriveCodexSandboxMode's absolute never-throws claim was false for an object with
a throwing toString; T49 could not falsify cross-phase leakage (its target phase
had its own 01, so a globally-scoped map passed too); T20/N6 iterated a hardcoded
table and pinned the FIXTURE size, so a 36th agent would be silently unchecked;
three tests reimplemented the code they were testing instead of importing it; and
T2-T4 deleted GSD_RUNTIME without restoring it.

Verified: hold list 17, gsd-nyquist-auditor derives workspace-write unheld and
emits read-only held, roster 35/35 at 26/9, depends_on ["auth"] no longer
resolves while ["01"] still does, both identity-bypass cases and every confusable
vector emit read-only.

* docs(#3897): the hold list is 17, and the reason the 17th was missing

The count read 16 because the derivation could not read the declaration it
claimed to derive from: the tools reader was single-line, so a YAML list-form
tools: block returned only its first item and gsd-nyquist-auditor's declared
Write and Edit were read as an absence.

Both the ADR entry and the feature fragment now carry the corrected count and the
reason for it, rather than a silently updated number. Deriving from a declaration
you cannot parse is not deriving, and a flattering count is worse than a wrong
one because it looks settled.

docs/FEATURES.md regenerated from the fragment.

c5f2b94b27 enhance(#3907): gates report no-input instead of a verdict they never reached (#3932)
* feat(#3907): gates report no-input instead of asserting a verdict they never reached

The three stdin-reading gates bound 2 to a stdin read error only, with no arm for stdin closed at zero bytes - so empty input flowed into the detector, found nothing, and exited 1, which each module's own comment defines as a negative verdict. An unset PHASE_SECTION made the UI gate assert the phase has no UI. Empty and whitespace-only input now exit NO_INPUT, and a read error exits UNAVAILABLE rather than a locally-invented 2, both resolved through the registry and delivered by terminateNow.

The exit code was only half of it: under --json the same input emitted {detected:false}, byte-identical to the fabricated payload #3909 exists to fix, and the blocking coverage gate reads that payload. Empty input now emits the in-tree {skipped:true,reason} form with no detected key at all.

teams-status is excluded: it never reads stdin and has no invented 2, so the four-module framing in the issue and ADR is wrong. The dead root bin/lib/ui-safety-gate.cjs is deleted - no installer reference, no workflow invocation, and the live fallback chains are for other modules. Its removal restores the unit tests to the module that actually ships; they had been asserting the stale copy's two-field shape, which is why it drifted unnoticed.

* fix(#3907): drive gate tests through the process seam, and make removed-but-needed basename-precise

CONTRIBUTING requires every subprocess go through tests/helpers/process-seam.cjs; two of the three gate suites hand-rolled spawnSync while the third, added in the same change, used runNode correctly for the identical injection case. Converted the blocks this change added, leaving pre-existing ones alone.

Deleting one of two files sharing a basename made lint-removed-but-needed report 14 references that were all to the surviving canonical module - the false-positive class its own docstring names. It now matches on the deleted file's full path when a surviving file shares its basename, which is more precise rather than weaker: a genuine full-path reference still fails, and behaviour is unchanged when no basename collides. It immediately caught a docstring on this branch that spelled the deleted path.

* test(#3907): update the one existing assertion that pinned the old empty-stdin verdict

A pre-existing test asserted exit 1 on empty stdin - the defect this phase removes - and was missed because the change added new blocks without auditing existing ones pinning the old contract. Audited the rest: the other three status-1 assertions in that file all feed real input and are the genuine-negative controls that must keep returning 1, so exactly one was stale. The retired 2 is gone from the describe's contract comment too.

* feat(#3906): two terminators over one registry, with a versioned projection

Adds terminateNow (write-then-terminate, for callers that cannot wait for the event loop) beside runMain (drain-then-exit), both projecting through one shared function so they cannot disagree - the parity the ADR makes mandatory. A failed write does not change the exit code: letting it propagate would fail a hook open, which is what the fail-closed branches exist to prevent.

The projection is versioned. v1 reproduces today's integers, including keeping a payload-carried degraded result at exit 0 - ADR-2980 ratified that across 60 sites and declined normalizing it on measured blast radius. v2 applies the registry. --exit-contract=v2 or GSD_EXIT_CONTRACT=v2 selects it; an unrecognized version throws rather than silently defaulting.

The registry is now emitted beside both copies of the exit module, so it resolves as a sibling in the built tree and in the committed scripts/ copy that must load on an unbuilt clone.

* fix(#3906): actually restrict code 2 to terminateNow, and generate the registry's type

The claim that terminateNow is the only place 2 can be produced was false: runMain's outcome arm applied no guard, so runMain(()=>'HOOK_DENY') set exitCode 2 through the drain path - and the parity matrix demonstrated it while calling it parity. runMain now refuses any outcome projecting to the hook-protocol code, gated on the code rather than the name so an alias cannot slip past, and the matrix asserts the restriction instead of contradicting it.

The ambient type for the generated registry was hand-written with no gate against the generator's actual output - the declared-surface-diverges-from-runtime defect class this epic exists to close, reintroduced inside it. It is now a third generated artifact covered by the same --check. Also converts every test-body try/finally to t.after().

* test(#3906): derive the glossary fixture's dependencies instead of hand-listing them

Adding a require to scripts/lib/cli-exit.cjs broke 31 tests in one suite that built its fixture from a hand-written dependency list, so the new sibling was absent and the copied script could not load. copyScriptWithDeps walks the require graph and exists for exactly this class - #3412 paid the same bill when one new require broke 82 tests across two suites. Migrating rather than adding another copyFileSync line keeps the class closed. The other nine suites referencing that path were triaged; none copies-and-spawns, so none needed migrating.

* fix(#3906): enumerate the new shipped file, drop a vendor name from shipped data, and fix three test defects

install: scripts/lib/exit-code-registry.cjs was missing from GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES, so it shipped to every install and orphaned on uninstall.

The registry gave HOOK_DENY a meaning naming one harness, and that string ships into every runtime's tree - a guard correctly caught it leaking into the hermes and qwen installs. The registry is runtime-neutral infrastructure; the vendor name belongs in the ADR, not in shipped data.

Two more fixture harnesses built their trees from hand-listed dependencies and broke on the new require; both migrated to the derived helper, and all 23 copy-and-spawn candidates were enumerated so the class is closed rather than patched. One generator test used a fixture code that collided with a real allocation, so the generator correctly reported a duplicate where the test expected drift. The large-payload test embedded a 256KB literal in the child's argv, exceeding Linux's 128KiB MAX_ARG_STRLEN so the child never started - it now builds the payload inside the child.

* chore(#3906): backfill changeset pr number

* docs(#3906): document the exit-code contract selector

P2 is the first phase of this epic with a user-invocable surface, so the flag and env var owe a reference entry. Records what actually differs between v1 and v2 today (one outcome), that an unrecognized value is rejected rather than silently defaulted, and the fail-safe property that makes switching safe.

39673ae9ff fix(#3738): antigravity global skills/agents install to ~/.gemini/config (#3921)
* test(#3738): antigravity global skills/agents must resolve under ~/.gemini/config

Regression tests (RED first): --skills-root and gsd-tools query surfaces,
install-plan dest dirs, and converter skills-path rewrite.

* fix(#3738): antigravity global skills/agents install to ~/.gemini/config

Antigravity's machine-local discovery scans ~/.gemini/config/{skills,agents};
the configHome (~/.gemini/antigravity) is deprecated for artifacts. Declare the
ADR-1239 skills/agents 'home' override on the antigravity global layout — the
same mechanism codex uses (.agents) — and divert ~/.claude/skills/ references
in converted global content to ~/.gemini/config/skills/. configHome, settings,
probe/migration semantics, and the local .agents layout are unchanged.

* fix(#3738): retire deprecated configHome artifacts via installer migration 010

Next install converges an existing antigravity install: manifest-managed
skills/gsd-*/ and agents/gsd-*.md under the configHome (a location AGY does
not scan) are removed — modified files backed up first, unmanifested and
non-gsd entries preserved — and now-empty containers retired. Global scope
only; the local .agents surface is live. Docs + inventory updated.

* fix(#3738): converter sync in bin/install.js, harness emit-root coverage, migration baseline

- bin/install.js converter gains the same ~/.claude/skills → ~/.gemini/config/
  rewrite as src (ADR-1508 dual copy must stay in sync).
- Parity-manifest walk covers home-override emit roots (extraEmitRootsFor) so
  antigravity's emitted skills/agents stay differential-visible at their new
  install root; install-tree fixture regen confirms an unchanged key set.
- skills-from-commands rule declares the antigravity converter as a
  runtime-scoped transform; one ack fragment covers the identity-classed
  workflow whose antigravity copy embeds the old skills path.
- Migration 010 checksum baseline + home-override set doc updated; existing
  tests updated to the #3738 contract (global dest, golden parity via layout
  dest, integration expectations).

* fix(#3738): tolerate an absent extra emit root on baseline-side measurement

The base tree's installer predates the home override, so <HOME>/.gemini/config
does not exist there; walk() threw ENOENT and the in-job baseline build failed.
An absent extra root is the legitimate pre-override shape — skip it.

* fix(#3738): review findings — manifest agents root, bare skills-path rewrite, guard comment

- writeManifest resolves the agents-kind home override (_kindDestDirSafe), so
  the manifest records agents at their actual install root and drift detection
  keeps working (isolated review finding 1, major).
- Converter bare forms ~/.claude/skills and $HOME/.claude/skills (no trailing
  slash) divert to ~/.gemini/config/skills instead of falling through to the
  retired configHome path (finding 2).
- real-home-guard comment updated: antigravity's global agents kind is the
  first agents-kind home override (finding 3, doc-only).
- Regression tests for both behavioral findings.

* chore(#3738): changeset fragment (pr number backfilled after PR creation)

* chore(#3738): backfill changeset PR number (3921)

* fix(#3738): sandbox HOME in tests that install antigravity global artifacts

antigravity is the first home-override runtime in the golden-parity and
skills-wrapper suites (codex is not in their runtime lists), so those tests
never needed HOME sandboxing — the real-home guard now (correctly) refuses
their un-sandboxed global installs on CI, where HOME is the passwd home.

* fix(#3738): stop the K3 sequential-sandbox env leak; sandbox L2's home-override plans

K3's two back-to-back sandboxHome calls leave HOME pointing at the first
sandbox once the after-hooks restore (each call saves the env as it found
it, so the second saves the first's sandbox as 'original'). On the windows
matrix that leaked gsd-k3-qwen-* home into the L2 property, whose
antigravity/global run then (correctly) refused via the #3712 real-home
guard — antigravity is the runtime that made L2's plan escape into
os.homedir(). K3 now manages the env with a single restore; L2 sandboxes
HOME per run, mirroring L1.

* fix(#3738): L2 property's HOME sandbox must exist on disk

The #3712 guard's sandbox exemption fails closed when identify(effectiveHome)
is 'absent' — L2 never created its configDir, so on the windows matrix (tmpdir
under the real home) the antigravity/global run refused even with HOME
sandboxed. Create the per-run sandbox dir and clean it up.

107eb8c1d9 feat(#3753): run docs guards on the PR that changes the docs they read (#3787)
A PR whose diff is entirely under docs/ runs zero tests, so a guard whose INPUT
is shipped prose cannot protect the PR lane of the diffs it exists to check. Its
only firing opportunity is after merge, on the shared branch -- which is how next
went red on dacae9273 while the PR that caused it (#3746) was green on every
check.

The docs-lint job in .github/workflows/docs-required.yml -- an ALREADY-REQUIRED
context -- now selects and runs the docs guards that read the specific docs files
the PR changed.

  scripts/docs-guard-registry.cjs    test file -> the docs paths it reads (63)
  scripts/select-docs-guards.cjs     pure (changedPaths, registry) -> test files
  scripts/lint-docs-guard-registration.cjs   drift guard, wired into lint:ci

scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs is NOT touched -- `git diff origin/next --` on it is
empty -- so #764's saving stands and its 21 pinning tests are untouched.

Selection: exact path; trailing-slash directory prefix (boundary-checked --
docs/adrenaline.md does NOT match docs/adr/, which a naive startsWith gets
wrong); and '*' for the 6 entries that walk docs/ generally or read a computed
path. Unknown maps to '*' -- guessing narrow is how a guard silently stops
running. Measured: a typo fix selects 6 of 63; docs/AGENTS.md selects 12;
docs/COMMANDS.md selects 18.

Four things this got wrong first, each found by an independent reviewer or by
probe, and each having been asserted safe in a comment:

1. The registry started as a RULE in ci-test-scope.cjs's RULES, on the theory
   that classify()'s !codeChanged normalization made it inert. True for
   docs-ONLY diffs; false for MIXED docs+code diffs, where codeChanged is true
   and the normalization never runs:

     node scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs --files "docs/a.md src/semver.cts"
       with the RULE:  25 targeted_tests
       origin/next:     3 targeted_tests

   Category error: RULES is the scoped lane's input; a docs-guard registry is a
   lane manifest for a consumer that never calls classify(). Extracted; pinned
   by value.

2. The second attempt was a dedicated workflow with paths: [docs/**]. Such a
   workflow never reports on a non-docs PR, so it can never be a required
   context without hanging every non-docs PR -- and a non-required check does not
   block a merge, so the guard would have been advisory and #3753 unfixed.
   docs-required.yml already has no paths: filter, already supplies the required
   docs-lint context, already computes docs_changed, and already ran one docs
   guard gated on it. Generalizing that step needs no ruleset edit at all.

3. The registry and the drift lint were built from ONE path-segment heuristic, so
   both were blind identically -- and blind at the guard that motivated the issue.
   The reader-call regex required a character BEFORE its keyword, so a callee
   named exactly read( / load( / parse( / doc( / file( / content( could never
   match; and only an INLINE path.join(ROOT,'docs','X.md') argument was caught,
   missing the two-step-via-variable form -- the MAJORITY spelling -- plus
   template literals and concatenation. Detector 1 fired on 14 of ~450 files, so
   35 genuine guards sat unregistered while the lint reported 0 violations,
   including cursor-reviewer (reads docs/COMMANDS.md, asserts
   .includes('--cursor')) and inventory-headings-countfree. The "accepted blind
   spot" this shipped with was the common case, not a fringe.

4. With detection fixed the true population is 115 files: 63 genuine guards, 52
   incidental. Running all 63 in a REQUIRED check on a one-line typo fix is the
   cost #764 exists to avoid -- install.test.cjs is 7840 lines and reads exactly
   one docs file, docs/AGENTS.md, for its frontmatter. Dropping it reproduces the
   bug; running it for a typo elsewhere is waste. Hence the map.

Then a second review round found six more, all fixed here:

- fragment-single-edit-propagation.install.test.cjs was EXEMPTED as
  "overlay fixture only". False: it reads the real docs/registries/eos.json and
  asserts on a registry entry name, and reads the real ADR-0001 and asserts its
  H1. A docs-only PR touching either would have gone green and red next -- #3753
  shipping again, from inside the fix for it. Now registered against both paths,
  and all 52 remaining exemptions were re-audited one by one.
- The SUITES-collision guard compared RAW registry keys, but run-tests.cjs strips
  a leading `tests/` BEFORE its suite check. So it caught 'all' and missed
  'tests/all' -- the only spelling that can actually occur, since every key
  carries the prefix. One typo would have run all 824 test files inside the
  required job. Now normalized the same way run-tests.cjs normalizes.
- The lint failed OPEN on an unreadable tests dir or candidate file: 0 violations,
  ok:true. A guard that cannot read its input must never report success.
- The exemption ratchet gated identity only, so a baselined file that later
  STARTED asserting on shipped docs stayed exempt silently -- 52 permanently blind
  files. The baseline now fingerprints the docs paths each exempted file
  references and fails when that set changes, naming what changed.
- The exemption marker was still honored inside a multi-line template literal in
  the header window. The scanner now tracks template-literal and block-comment
  state.
- `git diff --name-only | grep '^docs/'` silently dropped C-quoted non-ASCII docs
  paths, making docs_changed=false a green zero-guard check. Both call sites now
  pass -c core.quotepath=false.
- The run step was gated on hashFiles(), which a force-committed
  .docs-guard-tests.txt would satisfy. The step now rm -f's both scratch files
  first and gates on an output it sets itself.

Three empty states, deliberately distinct, because conflating them rebuilds
#3753: an empty or malformed registry HARD-FAILS; docs changed with no guard
covering them logs and skips; no docs change is already gated. The middle state
must never be expressed as an empty --files-from, which prints `no tests in suite
"all"` and exits 0 -- a green check that guarded nothing. With the current
registry that state is unreachable, because the six '*' entries always match;
the branch is kept as defensive handling for a future registry and says so.

timeout-minutes: 15 bounds the required job against a hanging fork-supplied test;
it had none. npm ci was added because the job never installed dependencies -- the
previous single-file step got away without it, the registry does not.

docs/contributing/docs-guard-registration.md documents the rule, following its
sibling cross-platform-portability-rules.md, and CONTRIBUTING.md's CI Test
Quality Checks table links to it. It is also load-bearing: without a docs/ file
in the diff this PR would not have triggered its own lane, shipping an
unexercised change to a required check.

One unrelated fix, included because this PR surfaced it and CLAUDE.md forbids
deferring a defect found while working. On this branch's first CI run,
`full test (windows-latest, 24, shard 3/3)` was CANCELLED at exactly 30 minutes;
tests were still passing 0.8s before the cancel, so it is a wall-clock timeout,
not a hang, and a cancelled job reddens `Required tests`.

The cause is not this PR's test file, which costs ~60ms. Shard composition is
unstable: adding ONE file to the unit suite reshuffled 115 of 268 files between
shards, and shard 3 drew a heavier mix. Underneath that is a real pre-existing
defect. tests/ci-test-job-timeout-budget.test.cjs requires every lane's budget to
be >= 1.5x its MEASURED cost -- "a lane that got slower must be re-budgeted, not
excused" -- and its test-full entry recorded 19m from a windows-22 shard. That is
stale. Measured on `next` with none of this PR's changes present: 26m18s (run
32614439702, windows-latest/24 shard 3/3), 23m36s and 23m17s on shard 2/3. So the
lane costs ~26m and the 30-minute cap carried 1.14x headroom, not 1.5x. The gate
had been out of compliance with its own rule; this PR was merely the file
addition that reshuffled shard 3 past the cliff.

Fixed as that file prescribes: measuredMinutes 19 -> 27 with fresh evidence, and
test-full timeout-minutes 30 -> 45. The rule's minimum for 27m is 41; 45 is
deliberately above it because the reshuffle means per-shard worst case moves run
to run, and a budget pinned to the exact minimum would be re-breached by the next
test file anyone adds. Only that one job's timeout changed; test.yml's scope,
matrix and steps are untouched, so #764's saving is unaffected.

Raising that cap let the Windows shard finish (28m45s, inside 45) and uncovered
a real failure the 30-minute cancel had been masking:
`new quick-task branch branches off origin/main (#2916)` died with
`outcome=timed_out exitCode=null`, SIGTERM, at the 15000ms bound.

tests/quick-branching.test.cjs:149 `runStep` runs a `#!/usr/bin/env bash` script
executing MULTIPLE git commands, but was bound to GIT_TIMEOUT_MS (15000) -- the
norm for a SINGLE git plumbing call. tests/helpers/timeouts.cjs already documents
this exact failure and exists to fix it: HOOK_FANOUT_TIMEOUT_MS was created after
PR #3285 recorded "outcome=timed_out exitCode=null at exactly the 15000ms probe
bound while every other lane passed the same commit", and calls that "a bound
sized for the wrong class, not a slow machine". Our failure is that case
verbatim, so both sites move to the class norm rather than to a bigger number.

The same class also failed on `next` itself 21 hours earlier -- run 32608945654,
windows-latest/24 shard 1/3, `plan touching only src/ in a submodule project
keeps worktree isolation ENABLED` -- where tests/worktree-safety.test.cjs:5845
`runGate` fans out to `git config --file .gitmodules` under a hardcoded 30000.
Fixed too, since it is a defect in the tree regardless of which branch surfaced
it.

A survey of the whole tests/ tree found the same class-mismatch at further
bash fan-out sites bound under 60000ms, and the maintainer approved sweeping
them rather than leaving them latent to surface the same way one at a time. 16
fan-out sites across 16 files now use the class norm.

The sweep is class-correctness, not raising numbers until things pass. Sites
were moved ONLY where the bash body demonstrably spawns something (git, node,
npm, a CLI); self-contained shell snippets were left where they are, and are
listed as deliberately unchanged: pure if/printf bodies (copilot-install), pure
array/case builtins (code-review-pipeline-regression:638), a documented
pure-shell gsd_run stub (host-integration), single-process hook calls
(workflow-guard:222/271/302), and a deliberately tight 5000ms fast-check hook
(gsd-write-guard.property). Nothing was lowered. process-seam.test.cjs:513
(literal 300) is untouched on purpose -- it tests timeout BEHAVIOR, so raising
it would destroy what it asserts.

Shared file-level constants were the trap here, and were handled per file rather
than by redefinition: GIT_TIMEOUT_MS has ~15 users in git-base-branch and only 1
is a fan-out; WORKTREE_TIMEOUT_MS has 16 users in worktree.test.cjs and 3 are;
PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS has several in three more files. In each the CALL SITE was
changed and the constant left alone, so no single-plumbing-call site silently
inherited a 60s bound. The one exception is hooks-opt-in.test.cjs, where
HOOK_TIMEOUT_MS has exactly one consumer -- spawnHook, the fan-out itself -- so
redefining it is identical in effect and reads better.

Only two of these sites have actually been observed failing. The rest cite that
shared class and those two run ids rather than inventing evidence of their own.

a44d513566 fix(#3712): confine in-process installs to a sandboxed HOME (#3725)
* fix(#3712): confine in-process installs to a sandboxed HOME

A runtime kind may declare a global `home` override resolved from os.homedir()
rather than from the caller's configDir — codex's skills kind (`home: ".agents"`,
ADR-1239 / #2088) is the only live case. Sandboxing configDir/targetDir does not
contain it, and assertDestWithinConfigHome cannot see the class: that gate
confines a destSubpath to whatever root it is handed, and here the root IS the
escaped home. So an in-process caller that forgot to sandbox HOME wrote to, and
pruned gsd-* entries from, the developer's REAL ~/.agents/skills.

tests/agent-descriptor-parity.install.test.cjs's K1 loop did exactly that: it
iterates every agents-kind runtime (codex included) with a sandboxed targetDir
and an un-sandboxed HOME. Reproduced against a canary home on next @ adb46cdd8 —
71 gsd-* skill dirs deleted, a foreign `cloudflare` skill surviving, suite still
exit 0. It is silent because the runtime's own config home is untouched, so the
manifest keeps reporting a healthy install.

FIVE writers resolve a kind `home` and then destroy under it. Three are reachable
today — installRuntimeArtifacts, uninstallRuntimeArtifacts (install-engine.cts)
and applySurface (surface.cts). Two are descriptor-dependent and guarded against a
future descriptor change rather than a present escape: installOpencodeFamilySkills
(behind the combined-family early return) and installAgentsKindStandalone. Those
two are scoped to the single kind each destroys — passing the whole layout made
codex's unrelated skills override trip a writer that never touches it.

- src/test-home-guard.cts: refuse when a run under a test runner cannot be shown
  to have sandboxed HOME. NODE_TEST_CONTEXT (set by `node --test`) gates it, so
  installs outside a Node test context are untouched; GSD_TEST_MODE is unusable,
  as several candidate files including the offender never set it. Homes are
  compared by FILESYSTEM IDENTITY (st_dev + st_ino), not by pathname:
  path.resolve() resolves neither symlinks nor case, and realpath returns a
  canonical pathname that two routes to one directory can still disagree on (bind
  mounts). Verified on macOS/APFS — HOME=/users/<name> made the strings differ
  while naming the same directory, and the lexical form ALLOWED a write into the
  physical real home. FAILS CLOSED: a pair is "different" only when both identify,
  or one is definitively absent (ENOENT/ENOTDIR) while the other identifies; every
  other errno is "cannot tell" and refuses. Only when neither home identifies is a
  marker consulted, and it carries the sandbox PATH and must equal the home in
  effect — a boolean checked first let an ambient or stale value disarm the guard.
- helpers: promote sandboxHome() out of its two byte-identical private copies,
  which is also what makes them record the sandbox; the three withFakeHome()
  helpers record it too. The marker NAME is duplicated as a bare string rather
  than required from the compiled guard, keeping helpers.cjs's documented
  no-built-lib-at-import-time contract; a test pins the two together.
- agent-descriptor-parity: sandbox HOME across the K1 loop.
- helpers-process-isolation: #3156's canary asserts on <home>/.gsd only, and its
  `--cursor --local` spawn cannot reach `.agents` at all, so an assertion added
  there would pass with all confinement removed. Add a discriminating row — a
  `--codex --global` spawn against a seeded ambient home — which also asserts the
  runtime still declares the override. Its check is a sampled inventory (dir names
  + each SKILL.md), not a tree compare.
- install-write-confinement: predicate rows through the deps seam, covering the
  symlinked HOME, ambient and stale markers, and each sameDirectory branch
  (both-identify, one-absent, neither-identifiable), plus wiring rows that drive
  the REAL entrypoints so deleting a guard call site is red.

Verified: guard fires end-to-end against a real un-sandboxed HOME (exit 1, zero
deletions); the case-variant fail-open reproduced on APFS before the fix and
refuses after; K1 file 29/29 green with skills intact; mutation-tested — each of
the three reachable call sites, lexical-only comparison, and treating an unknown
errno as "absent" each take exactly one row red, with every mutation echoed back;
the process-isolation row negative-controlled by reverting installerEnv to its
pre-#3156 leak (16/0 -> 13/3); a full npm test leaves ~/.agents/skills at 71.

Stated residual: the two descriptor-dependent writers have no wiring test, because
no runtime declares a `home` override on those kinds and neither can be exercised
without inventing a descriptor.

* fix(#3712): let a sandbox nested inside the real home through the guard

All six Windows shards of #3725 failed on legitimately sandboxed
destinations. On Windows os.tmpdir() is %LOCALAPPDATA%\Temp — inside the
user's home — so every sandbox a test creates is a descendant of the real
home, and "does this land inside the real home?" answers yes for the safe
case and the dangerous one alike. POSIX conceals this: /tmp and
/var/folders both sit outside $HOME.

Add the missing conjunct: a destination inside the real home is allowed
only when it also sits beneath a HOME that was sandboxed away from the
passwd home. Both halves are required — dropping the first re-admits a
plain un-sandboxed install, and dropping the second decays into the
"is HOME sandboxed?" check the module rejects, which a layout resolved
before the sandbox walks straight through. Each is mutation-proven by a
row that goes red without it.

Also covers the two fail-closed branches of the new exemption, which
survived mutation to `true` with the suite green, and avoids `<user>` in
a docblock — the prompt-injection scanner reads it as a delimiter tag.

* fix(#3712): close three writer/rollback gaps found reviewing the whole PR

Cross-AI review of the full PR (not just the round's delta) surfaced
three ways the guard could still be defeated:

- The nested-sandbox exemption trusted the SPELLING of a destination.
  With HOME sandboxed to a directory inside the real home — legitimate on
  Windows — an aliased `.agents` (symlink, junction, subordinate bind
  mount) beneath it redirected an allowed path into the real home. Decide
  containment on the path the write RESOLVES to: walk up to the nearest
  existing ancestor, canonicalize, re-append the tail.

- `migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill` is a SIXTH writer that resolves a
  skills-kind `home` override. It creates rather than prunes, which is
  why it was missed, and `_runLegacyInstallMigrations` runs it before
  `installRuntimeArtifacts`' own assertion. Guarded, scoped to that kind.

- Worst of the three: `bin/install.js` snapshots the resolved skills root
  before installing, and its outer catch rolls back by deleting and
  recreating every snapshotted `gsd-*` directory there. The guard's own
  throw landed in that catch, so refusing an un-sandboxed codex install
  provoked exactly the mutation the guard exists to prevent. Refusals are
  now marked and rethrown without rollback — nothing was written, so
  there is no partial install to undo. Every other error still rolls back.

Also carries the sandbox marker into `installSpawnEnv`, so spawned
installers are not refused on passwd-less CI images, and corrects three
claims that no longer hold: "every writer" (six, and named), the
unconditional "fails CLOSED" (the passwd-less marker branch is a
deliberate weakening, and TOCTOU is out of scope), and the assertion that
Windows os.tmpdir() is always %LOCALAPPDATA%\Temp (Node honors TEMP/TMP).

* docs(#3712): name the guard's two limits instead of overclaiming

Round-2 review found the prose had drifted ahead of the code. Corrected,
with no behavior change:

- The module still said FIVE writers; there are six, and the sixth is
  now named along with why it was missed (it creates rather than prunes)
  and why it carries its own assertion (it runs before the main one).
- The canonicalization docblock listed subordinate bind mounts among the
  aliases it closes. It does not close them: a bind mount is not a link,
  so realpath keeps the mount-point spelling. `sameDirectory` already
  recorded that limit; the new helper now inherits it explicitly rather
  than contradicting it. Closing it needs mount-table introspection.
- "FAILS CLOSED" was unqualified while the passwd-less marker branch is
  a deliberate weakening — with no passwd entry, nothing can contradict a
  marker naming the real home.
- "Refuses BEFORE any write" was too broad: legacy install migrations run
  ahead of the layout-driven ones, which is exactly why the two
  rollbackInstallerMigrations() calls still execute before the rethrow.
  Only the codex skills-root rollback is skipped, and that is the only
  _codexPreConfigRollback() call site — applySurface is never called from
  bin/install.js and uninstall cannot reach it.

* fix(#3712): sandbox HOME in the opencode-family home-override parity rows

The last two Windows failures, and the same platform asymmetry in a
different disguise. This row drives a skills-kind `home` override on
purpose — precisely what the guard polices — but relied on the override
temp dir happening to sit outside the real home. It does on POSIX
(/tmp, /var/folders); on Windows os.tmpdir() is under %USERPROFILE%, so
the guard correctly refused and only Windows went red.

Declare the sandbox instead of depending on the platform: HOME becomes
the override itself, which is the home the call writes under. This is the
fix the guard's own message prescribes, applied to the test rather than
to the guard.

Both failing Windows shards fail on exactly these two rows and nothing
else; every other shard is green.

* fix(#3712): make sameDirectory answer NO when it cannot tell

Review Major 1. sameDirectory()'s only caller is the passwd-less marker
branch, which reads a `true` as permission to PROCEED:

    if (marker && sameDirectory(marker, osMod.homedir())) return;

The fallthrough returned `true` whenever neither side identified — two
absent paths, or two stats failing EACCES/EPERM/EIO on a locked-down
host — on the reasoning that "cannot tell" should make the caller refuse.
That reasoning was inverted with respect to this caller: it turned the
passwd-less escape hatch into an unconditional bypass for any marker
value at all, on precisely the hosts the fallback exists to serve. Only
two things now answer yes: one resolved pathname, or two readable
identities that match. Restoring the old fallthrough takes the new row
red.

Also from review:

- Major 2 asked whether st_dev/st_ino discriminate directories on
  Windows, where Node derives them from BY_HANDLE_FILE_INFORMATION. The
  whole guard rests on that primitive, so assert it rather than argue it:
  a row comparing two distinct temp directories, and one directory
  reached by two spellings. It runs on every platform in the matrix, so
  Windows answers the question itself.

- Minor 1: the refusal now names the real home it compared against, not
  just the destination it refused. That is the one fact needed to tell a
  true positive from a false one, and its absence is what made the
  Windows case a CI-log dig rather than a glance.

* fix(#3712): refuse a HOME that merely spells the real home more widely

Review round: one Blocker, four Minors, a Nit.

N2 (the one with teeth) — a destination's ancestor chain is linear, so
"inside the real home AND inside the effective HOME" admits two
arrangements, not one. The intended `effectiveHome ⊂ realHome` is the
Windows temp shape; `realHome ⊂ effectiveHome` — HOME at /Users, /home,
C:\Users — is not a sandbox at all, it is the real home reached by a
wider spelling, and it was exempting a stale destination pointing
straight at ~/.agents. Third conjunct added; the docblock no longer
claims two conditions suffice. Removing the conjunct reds the new row
and nothing else.

N4 — the migration guard resolved its OWN layout, and without
capabilityRegistry, so a registry-dependent descriptor could make it
vouch for a path the migration does not write: a guard reporting safe
while the unsafe write proceeds. It now guards the destination already
resolved by _resolveDevPreferencesSkillTarget, keyed on
`installRoot !== targetDir` — which is exactly the condition under which
a `home` override was declared, read off that same result.

N1 — CONTEXT.md gains the Test Home Guard Module glossary entry that
contributor-standards.md requires of a new Module. Not CI-enforced, so
green CI was never evidence it was met.

N3 — the docs/INVENTORY.md row was misfiled between install-fs-adapter
and install-model-override-resolver; the table is alphabetical and the
manifest already had it right. Moved, and its text now names six writers
and the third conjunct.

N5 — applySurface's signature docblock was two parameters stale; this PR
added the second of them.

N6 — the duplicated rollbackInstallerMigrations() adjacent to the new
rethrow: two identical consecutive calls, not two phases.

* fix(#3712): guard the sixth writer, and close two false-ALLOW paths

Review round 3 (NEW-1, NEW-2) plus three defects Codex found in the
whole-PR pass, each reproduced before it was fixed.

NEW-1 — migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill called the guard with no
`deps`, so it bound real os/process.env and could not be wiring-tested
the way the other three reachable writers were. It now takes the same
optional `deps: { os?, env? }` tail parameter. The wiring block gains
the missing fourth row, and a fifth pinning the ALLOW half; the test
file's header docblock said "FIVE writers ... the three reachable
today", contradicting the six/four statement this PR already put in
src/test-home-guard.cts, CONTEXT.md, docs/INVENTORY.md and the
changeset. Both directions of the guard's condition now fail a row
when broken — previously neither did.

NEW-2 — derivesFromSandboxedHome's docblock claimed "THREE conditions
are required, and no two of them suffice". False for {2,3}: isInside is
reflexive, so whenever conjunct 1 fires conjunct 2 already returns
false on its own. Reworded as a fast path, which is what it is.

Codex 1 (false ALLOW) — on a host with no readable passwd entry the
marker branch returned as soon as the marker matched the effective
HOME. That attests a caller sandboxed HOME and says nothing about where
an already-resolved destination points, so a layout captured before
sandboxHome() — still naming the real ~/.agents — was waved straight
through: the same stale-layout shape the primary branch refuses by
design. The marker must now identify AND contain every destination.

Codex 2 (false ALLOW) — `installRoot !== targetDir` was the stand-in
for "the skills kind declared a home override". The two are not
equivalent: the inequality is false when the override resolves onto
targetDir itself, which is exactly a configDir of $HOME/.agents. The
guard was skipped and SKILL.md written into the real home under a test
runner. _resolveDevPreferencesSkillTarget now reports hasHomeOverride
off the same resolution instead of inferring it from two paths.

Codex 3 (prose) — the shared refusal message claimed every guarded
writer prunes; the migrate writer only creates. The changeset headline
claimed in-process installer calls can no longer reach the real home,
which is wider than the guard: writeNonClaudeDefaults still writes
~/.gsd/defaults.json through os.homedir(). INVENTORY's and CONTEXT's
fail-closed sentences omitted sameDirectory's pathname-equality
shortcut. All four narrowed to what the code does.

* fix(#3712): let the sandbox marker follow an overridden HOME

Found by Codex in the whole-PR pass. installSpawnEnv spreads
`overrides` last so an explicit HOME wins — deliberate, and its
docblock tells callers needing per-spawn isolation to pass their own
{ HOME, USERPROFILE }. But the #3712 marker was set before that spread,
so such a caller got HOME=<theirs> and marker=<helper default>. On a
host with no readable passwd entry the guard compares the two and
refuses a legitimately sandboxed spawn — tests/install.test.cjs:7143
and install-shared.cjs's own runInstaller both take that path.

The marker is now derived from the final HOME unless the caller
supplied one explicitly. The contract test asserted HOME after an
override but not the marker, which is why it stayed green.

* docs(#3712): name the shipped guard condition, not the deleted one

Review round 4 of #3725. Two artifacts this PR adds still described
`target.installRoot !== targetDir` in the PRESENT tense as the live guard
condition on `migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill`. The shipped condition is
`runtime && target.hasHomeOverride` (src/install-engine.cts:510).

This is not ordinary doc drift. The named condition is the exact false-ALLOW
the previous round closed: a `home` override resolving onto `targetDir` — a
configDir of `$HOME/.agents`, which is where codex's override points — makes
the inequality FALSE while the override is declared, so the guard was skipped.
A maintainer reading CONTEXT.md:290 as authoritative would believe the guard
still skips that case.

  - tests/install-write-confinement.test.cjs — the ALLOW-half row's comment.
    Its "teeth" rationale is unchanged and still correct as written.
  - CONTEXT.md:290 — the Test Home Guard Module glossary entry, a documented
    PR gate. Now states the condition and names the inequality only as what it
    is NOT, with the reason.

The three surviving mentions of the inequality are all past-tense or negated
(src/install-engine.cts:448, :508 and the sibling test comment at :3698) and
are correct as they stand.

Verified: `npm run lint:ci` exit 0; full `npm test` 31327 tests / 31312 pass /
0 fail / 14 skipped, run with TMPDIR unset.

* fix(#3712): canonicalization fails closed, matching identify's errno split

Codex full-PR review of #3725, run against the round-4 head.

`resolveThroughLinks` caught EVERY realpathSync error and fell back to
`path.resolve(dest)` — the lexical spelling. That inverts the function's own
purpose. An aliased `<sandbox>/.agents` that cannot be canonicalized keeps its
sandbox spelling, satisfies the nested-sandbox exemption at :227, and the write
is ALLOWED into the real home — the exact escape this walk exists to close. The
module documents that it fails CLOSED with ONE named exception (the marker
branch); this was a second, unnamed one.

Split by errno, and deliberately by the SAME split `identify` already draws
rather than a second policy in one module — both answer "does this path exist
as named?", so they must not disagree:

  ENOENT / ENOTDIR -> walk up. The ordinary case: a fresh install resolves a
    destination nothing has created yet, so realpath fails on the leaf and on
    every not-yet-created ancestor. Refusing here rejects every install.
  anything else (EACCES, EPERM, ELOOP, EIO) -> refuse. The component exists but
    cannot be resolved, so the guard cannot tell where the write lands.

Three rows in the predicate block, beside the other aliasing rows:
  - a symlink CYCLE in the destination path (ELOOP)   -> REFUSE
  - a destination that does not exist yet (ENOENT)    -> ALLOW
  - a component behind a regular file (ENOTDIR)       -> ALLOW

Teeth checked against the artifact the test loads, not the source: reverting
the condition to the swallow-everything shape in the compiled
test-home-guard.cjs turns row 1 — and only row 1 — red. The ENOTDIR row caught
a stale build during development, which is the point of asserting on the
compiled file.

CONTEXT.md and the resolveThroughLinks docblock both record the new behaviour,
so this does not repeat the prose-vs-code drift the round-4 finding was about.

The changeset's existing scope sentence now bounds "six writers" to the
`installRuntimeArtifacts` call tree and names `cmdGenerateDevPreferences` —
which resolves the same codex `home` override through `getGlobalSkillsBase` and
writes SKILL.md beneath it unguarded. It has no in-process caller today (its
only direct require-and-call is a spawnSync with HOME sandboxed), so it is
latent rather than live, and whether it belongs in this PR is raised with the
maintainer rather than decided here.

Verified: `npm run lint:ci` exit 0; full `npm test` 31330 tests / 31315 pass /
0 fail / 14 skipped, TMPDIR unset.

004e9dd741 fix(#3007): resolve Codex reasoning effort per model and make every clamp visible (#3765)
* test(#3007): failing-first suite for per-model Codex effort capability

RED by construction. Binds to behavior renderEffortForRuntime does not yet
have: an optional third `model` argument, a per-model advertised-level table,
`max` passing through instead of clamping to `xhigh`, `minimal` clamping to
`low`, `ultra` rejected outright, and clamp visibility (`requested`/`clamped`/
`reason`) so a downgrade is legible from resolver output rather than silent.

Two of these pin defects that exist on next today:

- `max` is discarded. Both Codex models whose catalog entries are retrievable
  (sol, luna) advertise `max`; GSD clamps it to `xhigh` and reports nothing.
- `minimal` is emitted to a model that refuses it. providerPresets.openai.
  haiku.low pairs gpt-5.6-luna with reasoning_effort "minimal", and luna's
  advertised floor is `low`. GSD is sending a value into a document Codex
  itself validates. The parity test is what pins that fixed, and it names the
  offending path/model/effort when it trips.

Also corrects tests/model-resolver.test.cjs:351, which asserted
renderEffortForRuntime('codex','max').value === 'xhigh' -- the defect pinned as
though it were a contract. ADR-443 recorded "Codex has no max" as fact and it
was true when written; Codex has since added both `max` and `ultra`. That is a
stale premise, so the assertion is corrected here rather than worked around.

The property test asserts the invariant the whole change exists for: a rendered
effort is always a level the target model actually advertises, or an explicit
rejection. There is no third outcome.

* fix(#3007): resolve Codex effort per model, and make every clamp visible

Codex declares supported_reasoning_levels per MODEL and validates against it,
so a single per-runtime capability set cannot be right for all of them. GSD's
was wrong in both directions at once.

`max` reaches Codex now. ADR-443 recorded "Codex has no max" as fact and clamped
max -> xhigh on that basis; it was accurate when written, and Codex has since
added both `max` and `ultra`. Every Codex model whose catalog entry is
retrievable advertises `max`, so the clamp was discarding a level the provider
supports, silently, on the most-used path.

`minimal` stops reaching Codex. No Codex model advertises it -- both retrievable
entries floor at `low` -- yet providerPresets.openai.haiku.low paired
gpt-5.6-luna with reasoning_effort "minimal". GSD was writing a value the
receiver validates and refuses into a file the receiver reads. Being
unconservative in what you send is the half of Postel's rule with no defensible
reading, so that preset is corrected and a parity test pins it.

`ultra` is refused rather than laddered. Codex's own catalog calls it "Maximum
reasoning with automatic task delegation": at ultra, effective_multi_agent_mode
returns Proactive and Codex spawns sub-agents on its own initiative, underneath
GSD's orchestration rather than inside it (#2167). It is a mode switch, not a
reasoning depth, so it is not added to the universal ladder -- which stays
provider-agnostic by ADR-443's design -- and it is rejected even for
gpt-5.6-sol, which does advertise it. Clamping it down to `max` was considered
and rejected: that silently discards what the user actually asked for.

Clamping is now visible. RenderedEffort carries requested/clamped/reason and
resolve-execution surfaces them. The previous table clamped correctly but
invisibly, so a user asking for `max` on Codex had no way to find out they were
getting `xhigh` -- exactly the failure mode the robustness principle's modern
critique warns about, and why "be liberal" has to mean "liberal and loud".

Also closes a latent trap found while reviewing the implementation: the clamp-up
loop walks the ladder upward, and for a future model advertising `ultra` but not
`max` it would have selected `ultra` as the clamp target -- re-entering by the
back door the mode the rejection above exists to keep out. A clamp may never
produce a value that a direct request for that value would refuse. Unreachable
with today's catalog, which is why no test caught it; a test now asserts the
invariant directly.

Signature stability is preserved: the third `model` argument is optional and the
two-argument form still resolves, against the family baseline. That form's
BEHAVIOR does change for `max` and `minimal`, and it must -- keeping the old
answer would have fixed the defect only where a model happened to be threaded
through and left it live everywhere else.

tests/model-resolver.test.cjs:351 asserted the defect as if it were a contract
and is corrected here rather than worked around.

* fix(#3007): close every review finding on the Codex effort alignment

Two isolated reviewers, correctness and security. Both found the same two
blockers, and the per-model work was inert on every surface that matters until
this commit.

BLOCKER — resolve-execution never passed the model and discarded the clamp.
cmdResolveExecution called the two-argument form and emitted only
effort_rendered/effort_param/effort_propagation, so the per-model table was
unreachable from production code (tests were its only caller) and requested/
clamped/reason were computed and thrown away. Requested outcome 3 names "the
effective rendered effort in resolver output" specifically, so the feature was
unmet on the exact surface the issue asks for. Now passes the resolved model and
emits effort_requested / effort_clamped / effort_clamp_reason, flat, matching the
existing key convention rather than introducing a nested object.

BLOCKER — the docs described output that did not exist. CONFIGURATION.md showed
a nested {"effort": ...} sample; the real result is flat and those keys were
absent entirely. A reference doc asserting a JSON path a reader can copy is worse
than no doc. Corrected against the actual emitted key set.

MAJOR — the argv channel still shipped both original defects. EFFORT_ARGV.codex
kept minimal in its supported set and still clamped max down to xhigh, so the
invocation-time and install-time channels disagreed about the same runtime's
capability: --host codex with max emitted xhigh while the generated TOML said
max. This is the repo's documented generative-fix-divergence class, so both
tables now cross-reference each other and a parity test fails if they ever
diverge again.

MAJOR — malformed catalog data failed OPEN and could crash the CLI. A null
_baseline became an EMPTY Set that is nonetheless truthy, so the nullish fallback
never fired and every effort rendered as null. And a non-array value made the Set
constructor throw at module load — model-catalog.cjs is required across the whole
CLI, so one bad JSON value killed every command, not just codex effort. Guarded
on size and filtered to array values; both degrade to the hardcoded baseline.

MAJOR — value widened to a nullable string with two consumers left behind.
runtime-artifact-conversion passed it straight into injectEffortFrontmatter (a
null effort key in generated frontmatter); install-effort-resolver still declared
a non-nullable return, a structural lie that silently defeated null checking.
Both corrected, both omitting the key on null — the same posture as 'inherit',
where omission means "follow the host default".

MAJOR — the per-model table is inert today, and the docs now say so. All three
shipped models advertise the same usable range and ultra (sol's only
differentiator) is rejected for every model, so no observable output differs by
model. The table stays because Codex declares capability per model and the sets
are free to diverge — a single per-runtime assumption is precisely what went
stale and produced this issue — but overselling it as a visible per-model feature
would have been the same class of error as the doc blocker above.

Tests: three passed under a full revert and are strengthened rather than deleted,
since each guards a real contract (#3533's inherit rule, the undeclared-host
rule, off-ladder handling) — they now also assert the clamp-visibility fields,
which only exist after this change. The fast-check property is kept for its
shrinking, and a deterministic nested loop over the full cross-product now sits
beside it so coverage is exhaustive rather than sampled.

Also folded in earlier: bin/install.js generated the Codex TOML with the two-arg
form and would have written a literal null reasoning effort on the ultra path;
CONTEXT.md's Model Catalog Module glossary entry now records CODEX_MODEL_EFFORT.
The installer defect was found by the co-change gate, not by a reviewer —
install.js is a historical co-change partner of model-catalog.cts that this diff
had not touched.

* test(#3007): correct assertions that pinned Codex's stale effort premise

Thirteen pre-existing tests encoded "Codex has no max" as fact and failed on the
shipped commit. Every one is a stale pin, not a defect: each was probed against
the built module before its expectation was changed, and none failed for a
reason other than this premise correction.

Kept as its own commit per CONTRIBUTING — a test-fixture correction made stale
by a production change must not ride inside another commit, because the
release-sdk hotfix cherry-pick filter routes by subject prefix and a correction
buried under the wrong prefix ships a half-state (v1.42.3, #3621).

The most valuable one was tests/model-resolver.test.cjs's cross-provider
validity invariant, which hardcoded the Codex enum as
`minimal|low|medium|high|xhigh` and failed with "real API would 400". That
message is now false in both directions: Codex accepts `max`, and rejects
`minimal`, which no model advertises. The enum is corrected to
`low|medium|high|xhigh|max` and the guard is kept intact — it is exactly the
"would the real API refuse this" check worth having, and it was right to fail
here. It simply carried the stale fact in its own fixture.

Test NAMES were corrected alongside their assertions wherever the name asserted
the old behavior — "max is Anthropic-only", "max clamps to xhigh", "minimal
passthrough". A renamed test that still claims the old thing is worse than a
failing one, and a green test whose name states a falsehood is how the next
reader inherits the wrong premise.

Both channels are covered: install-time (renderEffortForRuntime, and the
generated .toml in install-runtime-artifacts) and invocation-time argv
(effort-surface-axis). They were deliberately brought into agreement in this
change, so their assertions had to move together.

Each site carries a #3007 comment recording that Codex gained max/ultra and that
capability is declared per model, so a future reader can tell this was a
deliberate premise correction rather than a test bent to fit an implementation.

* test(#3007): separate the effort-precedence case from the clamp case

The previous stale-assertion pass over-corrected one test. It saw
`effort: { default: 'max' }` on codex expecting `effort_rendered: 'xhigh'`,
assumed the xhigh came from the max→xhigh clamp #3007 removes, renamed it to
"max passes through" and changed the expectation to `max`. The remote runner
disagreed.

Reproduced against the real CLI: with that config and `gsd-planner`, the
resolver emits `effort: "xhigh"`, `effort_requested: "xhigh"`,
`effort_clamped: false`. The xhigh is produced by effort-resolution PRECEDENCE —
gsd-planner is heavy/opus tier and its routing-tier default outranks
`effort.default` — so `max` never reaches the renderer at all. The test says
nothing about clamping and never did; it only looked like a clamp pin because
both mechanisms happened to yield the same string.

Restored to `xhigh` and renamed to say what it actually tests. It now also
asserts `effort_clamped === false` and `effort_requested === 'xhigh'`, which is
what makes it impossible to mistake for a clamp pin again: those two fields prove
the value is what the resolver produced rather than something the renderer
downgraded. Before #3007 there was no way to tell the two apart from the output —
which is precisely why the previous pass could not tell them apart either.

Added the test that was actually missing: `effort.agent_overrides`, which
outranks the tier default, so the requested level genuinely reaches the renderer
and `max` survives to `effort_rendered` end-to-end through the real CLI. Verified
by probe before asserting.

One test now pins the precedence rule and the other pins the #3007 behavior, and
neither can be read as the other. That the clamp-visibility fields are what
resolved this is a small argument for having added them.

* chore(#3007): backfill changeset pr number to 3765

* test(#3007): put model-catalog under the mutation gate

The Stryker shard showed as `skipping` on this PR despite the diff rewriting
model-catalog's effort logic. That was legitimate, not a detection bug:
`model-catalog` was never in scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs's COVERED map, so the
whole module — including everything #3007 touches — sat entirely outside
mutation scoring with has_work "false".

Registered, with a dedicated spawn-free surface. tests/model-catalog.unit.test.cjs
is new: 44 in-process tests, no runGsdTools, no child process, no filesystem, no
temp dirs. That shape is not stylistic — it is the #2790 precedent this file
already documents. Stryker's command runner treats a whole `node --test <file>`
invocation as ONE test costing whatever its slowest case costs, and re-runs it
per mutant, so pointing a shard at tests/model-resolver.test.cjs (which uses
runGsdTools throughout) would reproduce exactly the 15-minute shard-cap
cancellation #2790 hit. The integration file is unaffected and keeps running in
full in the normal test job.

Coverage spans the module rather than only the diff, because the score is
measured over the whole file: effort rendering across every model and ladder
level in both channels, the prototype-chain host guard, the exported enums and
maps, isAnthropicFlavoredModel's provider namespacings, the profile projections,
nextTier, and mergeEffortTierDefaults. The last two were nearly left out and are
worth naming — every uncovered exported function is score given away, and
mergeEffortTierDefaults turned out to have a genuinely interesting contract
(#3531: a partial override merges over the built-ins rather than replacing them,
and isValid gates the VALUE, not the tier name, so an unknown tier key is still
merged in). Every expectation was probed against the built module before being
asserted.

minScore is 1 and that is a PLACEHOLDER, flagged as such in the registry comment.
Floors in this repo are measured, not chosen — the existing entries sit at 94, 75
and 56 — and they can only be measured in CI, because mutation shards run
`node --test`, which is hard-blocked locally. The first CI run on this branch
reports the real number and the floor gets ratcheted to it before merge. A
placeholder of 1 reaching `next` would make the gate decorative: it would pass
whether or not a single mutant is ever killed.

Note the target is "never regress from measured", not a fixed 80 — planning-inspect
sits at 56 and is documented as an accepted ratchet candidate.

* test(#3007): bootstrap model-catalog's mutation floor legally

The placeholder floor was structurally illegal and the remote run said so.
tests/mutation-matrix-ratchet.test.cjs guards the guard: every COVERED module
must carry a matching RATCHET_BASELINE entry in the same diff, minScore must
EQUAL that baseline, and it must be at least 50. `minScore: 1` failed all three.
That is the ratchet working exactly as intended — a floor nobody can satisfy
accidentally is the point of it.

Bootstrapped at 50 in both places. Fifty is not a measured score and the comment
says so plainly: it is the minimum the guard permits, and it coincides with
Stryker's own configured `break` threshold, so it is the lowest legal starting
point for a module that has never been measured. It still must be ratcheted to
floor(measured) - 1 before this PR merges.

Also corrected a real defect in the file's own instructions. "HOW TO UPDATE"
step 1 read "Run the per-module Stryker shard locally" — which cannot be done
here, and which the same file contradicts eighty lines further down, where the
#2790 scores are recorded as "not a local run; mutation shards run `node --test`,
hard-blocked in this repo's local environment". stryker.config.mjs confirms the
command runner invokes `node --test` once per mutant, and
.claude/hooks/block-local-node-test.sh denies exactly that. So the documented
first step sends the next contributor at a wall. Rewritten to describe the path
that works — push, read the measured score off the CI shard, then set the floor
and its baseline together in one diff — and to say why local measurement is not
available, so nobody rediscovers it the slow way. GOODHART SAFETY is untouched.

The two-step is inherent to the environment rather than a shortcut: a floor
cannot be measured before the first CI run exists, and the guard rightly refuses
to accept an unmeasured one below its minimum.

* test(#3007): ratchet model-catalog's mutation floor to its measured score

The shard ran in CI and reported 59.62% — 248 mutants killed, 168 survived, no
timeouts, no errors (run 32605073352, job 97108869486). Floor set to 58 per this
file's own rule, minScore = floor(measured) - 1, which is the same arithmetic
every sibling entry used: 57.03 to 56, 76.58 to 75, 95.65 to 94.

Both halves moved together, because the ratchet guard asserts minScore equals its
RATCHET_BASELINE entry and would reject them drifting apart.

The spawn-free unit surface is vindicated by the clock: 57 seconds, against a
15-minute shard cap and a 9m46s frontmatter shard in the same run. That was the
whole reason for creating tests/model-catalog.unit.test.cjs rather than pointing
the shard at tests/model-resolver.test.cjs — #2790 recorded shards being
CANCELLED at that cap when they targeted a runGsdTools-heavy integration file.

The registry comment is rewritten rather than deleted. It previously warned that
the floor was provisional and must not ship that way; leaving that text next to a
measured floor would make the file lie in the other direction. It now records the
measurement the way the sibling entries do, including that 59.62 sits below
TARGET (80) and is therefore a ratchet candidate like planning-inspect at 56 —
comfortably clear of its own floor with real room to grow. Raise it as the tests
improve; never lower it.

Worth stating plainly: 168 surviving mutants is not a clean bill of health. It is
an honest floor for a module that had NO mutation coverage at all an hour ago,
and it is now pinned so it cannot silently regress.

72819a4616 fix(#3031): opt-in reclaim of GSD hooks orphaned in ~/.kimi (#3731)
* test(#3031): failing-first coverage for opt-in ~/.kimi legacy reclaim

Drives the user-reachable installer surface against a sandbox HOME seeded
with the pre-#2755 wreckage: a GSD [[hooks]] block, hooks bundle and
CommonJS marker orphaned in ~/.kimi by a --kimi-code install.

Covers the reclaim itself plus the four guards the diagnosis identified as
negative space: opt-in only (no flag, no deletion), user-authored TOML and
hook files preserved, a --kimi install never reclaiming its own root, and
the KIMI_SHARE_DIR/KIMI_CODE_HOME collision where both roots resolve to one
directory. Adds a fast-check property that stripping the block never
destroys user content.

Red until --reclaim-kimi-legacy exists.

Refs #3031

* fix(#3031): opt-in reclaim of GSD hooks orphaned in ~/.kimi

A --kimi-code install older than 1.10.0 wrote its GSD [[hooks]] block, hook
bundle and CommonJS marker into Kimi CLI's ~/.kimi. #2755 fixed the
destination but could not reclaim what the old bug already wrote: the stale
block is byte-identical to a legitimate Kimi CLI one — both runtimes render
the same bytes for the same root, since the command paths derive from the
hooks root, not the runtime — so no inspection can tell litter from a working
install.

Cleanup is therefore opt-in. `--reclaim-kimi-legacy` on a --kimi-code install
removes GSD's own artifacts from the legacy root; without it nothing is
touched, so a dual-product machine keeps Kimi CLI's hooks and #2755's
acceptance criterion holds.

Extracts the uninstall path's removal sequence into reclaimKimiHooksRoot() and
drives both callers through it, so the reclaim removes precisely what a real
uninstall removes rather than a hand-copied second implementation. Guards the
wrong-runtime case (a --kimi install would delete its own hooks) and the
KIMI_SHARE_DIR/KIMI_CODE_HOME collision where both roots resolve to one
directory.

Also corrects two pre-#2755 leftovers in the same surface that told users to
run `--kimi --config-dir ~/.kimi-code` — the form that produces this very
defect, since --config-dir moves only the skills root — and adds the missing
--kimi-code entry to the installer's own help.

Regression coverage folded into tests/kimi-upgrades.test.cjs beside the #2755
cases, per the regression-test-naming lint.

Fixes #3031

* fix(#3031): never reclaim ~/.kimi when this run also installs kimi

Found by the isolated adversarial review pass and independently while tracing
--all ordering, then reproduced.

selectRuntimesFromArgs orders 'kimi' before 'kimi-code' in both --all and an
explicit --kimi --kimi-code, and installAllRuntimes installs in that order. So
--all --reclaim-kimi-legacy installed a fresh, legitimate Kimi CLI hooks block
into ~/.kimi and then deleted it moments later from the kimi-code leg — exiting
0 and reporting success while leaving the user with no Kimi CLI hooks at all.
The collision guard could not catch it: kimi-code's own root is ~/.kimi-code, a
genuinely different directory.

The flag asserts "I only use Kimi Code"; installing kimi in the same invocation
falsifies that, so the reclaim is skipped with a notice.

Also hardens the collision guard itself. It compared path.resolve strings,
which returns false for two spellings of ONE directory — measured, not assumed:
a symlinked alias and a case variant on a case-insensitive filesystem both
compared unequal, so the guard would not have fired and the install would have
deleted its own freshly-written hooks. isSameDirectory now compares directories
via resolve, then dev+ino identity, then realpath.

Regression tests for all three cases; the two alias tests probe the real
filesystem and t.skip() where the alias cannot exist.

Refs #3031

* docs(#3031): reattach reclaimKimiHooksRoot's JSDoc to its own function

Inserting isSameDirectory anchored on the function name, which placed the
helper between reclaimKimiHooksRoot's doc block and the function it documents.
isSameDirectory ended up with two stacked doc blocks above it and
reclaimKimiHooksRoot with none.

Refs #3031

* fix(#3031): warn when --reclaim-kimi-legacy cannot apply

The flag only acts inside the kimi-code GLOBAL install branch. Passed with any
other runtime, or with --local, it was consumed in silence: exit 0, no cleanup,
no message. For a cleanup the user explicitly asked for, silence is
indistinguishable from "it ran and found nothing".

The scope warning is raised at argument-resolution time rather than inside
install(). kimi-code declares hostBehaviors.localInstallDeferred, so install()
returns early at the deferral check long before the kimi-hooks-toml branch — a
guard placed there is unreachable, which is both dead code and a linted drift
shape in this repo. Verified reachable by spawning the real installer.

Neither case is a hard error: the flag stays composable with --all, where it is
legitimately inert for the other seventeen runtimes.

Refs #3031

* docs(#3031): document every case where --reclaim-kimi-legacy skips

Refs #3031

* fix(#3031): resolve local config dirs from RUNTIME_META alone in the install harness

The remote runner surfaced this: the #3031 warning test drives a local
kimi-code install and died with "The path argument must be of type string.
Received undefined".

runMinimalInstall carried a SECOND, hand-maintained local-dir map beside
RUNTIME_META, and it had drifted — four runtimes present in RUNTIME_META
(hermes, kimi, kimi-code, zcode) were missing from it, so scope:'local' for any
of them resolved path.join(root, undefined) and threw a bare TypeError naming
neither the runtime nor the map at fault. #3023 had already hit exactly this
for pi and fixed it by adding one more entry, which left the divergence itself
in place for the next runtime to rediscover.

Local scope now reads RUNTIME_META.localDir, the same table the global branch
already reads, with the same loud named error the global branch raises. Parity
verified for all 14 previously-supported runtimes: every one resolves to a
byte-identical configDir. cline keeps its ternary — its local artifacts land at
the project root itself, which is a real exception, not a directory name.

Guarded in golden-parity-single-source.test.cjs beside the buildParityManifest
anti-divergence test, and both arms of that guard were proven able to fail.

682eaae3f0 enh(#2876): retire the dead and pass-through exports from bin/install.js (#3615)
* enh(#2876): retire the dead and pass-through exports from bin/install.js

The installer exported 197 names and had zero production consumers - every
non-test require of it repo-wide sits inside a comment. Its interface was
shaped by test access, not by callers.

Removes 9 dead exports and 61 pass-throughs, repointing their tests onto the
extracted modules' own interfaces. 197 down to 127.

Every count in the issue was wrong: 197 exports not 188, 9 dead not 12, 61
pass-throughs not 49, 44 test files not 42 - and the audit itself then missed
7 more consumer files. restoreUserArtifacts was on the dead list but ceased to
exist in phase 6, and two _GSD_EFFORT_MANIFEST_* names listed as dead are now
genuinely asserted, so acting on that list would have deleted live exports.

7 of the 9 dead names collide with an independent declaration that install.js
delegates TO. Each removal was justified by which declaration a reference
resolves to, never by whether the name appears somewhere.

Coverage parity was the gate rather than test greenness: per-file counts were
captured before any edit and diffed after. 44 of 45 files are byte-identical;
the single delta is one added assertion, not a loss.

The sweep for scattered require sites found two forms static grep misses -
require(VARIABLE) and multi-line require() - plus tests asserting that
install.js re-exports the SAME object, which now assert retirement instead.

* fix(#2876): close review findings — restore the duplicate-body guard, sweep orphaned code

Both review engines found real defects in the first cut.

The DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX single-owner guard from #1511 had been repointed
from a reference-identity check to install.X === undefined. Those are not
equivalent: the guard exists to catch a duplicate function body reintroduced
into install.js, and the replacement passes cleanly if that duplicate is used
internally and never exported. It now walks bin/install.js's real top-level
bindings, so it catches a duplicate under either shape, exported or not -
strictly stronger than the check it replaced. Proved by injecting a duplicate
and watching it go red.

That weakening survived the coverage-parity gate because the assertion count
never moved. The gate compares counts, so an assertion that changes meaning
rather than number is invisible to it.

Removing the exports had orphaned their wrapper bodies: 14 dead wrappers, 9
consts and 9 destructure entries, several pre-existing and found by the same
sweep. Dead code left in the file this phase exists to shrink.

Three more comments claimed re-exports this phase removed, and tests were
reading Cursor and Windsurf hook constants from install.js's local copy while
calling functions from the hooks surface - equal today, with nothing holding
them equal. The local consts now reference the owning module.

3ab0007164 enh(#2875): materialization primitives — durable user-artifact staging and descriptor-authoritative agents (#3600)
* fix(#2875): stage user artifacts durably across install wipes (#1874-F19)

preserveUserArtifacts held user files only in an in-memory Map across the
wipe, so any process death between preserve and restore lost them outright.

Seven call sites, not the four the issue records. Three of them never called
the helper at all - they open-coded the same read/wipe/write - so searching
for callers under-counted by construction; the extra sites were found by
sweeping for the pattern instead.

The worst is the mainline install path, where the crash window spans the
entire gsd-core tree copy rather than a single rmSync.

Adds src/user-artifact-staging.cts: durable on-disk staging with a record
written after the copies land as the commit point, plus recovery of orphaned
batches on the next run - without recovery the staged bytes survive but the
user's file is still gone, which would pass its own test while delivering
nothing.

Routes copyPreservingSymlink through installFs() so staging cannot bypass the
install fs seam, and reunites its symlink-safety docblock with the function it
documents.

* docs(#2875): amend ADR-3574 with four claims disproved by implementation

Implementing Phase 6 disproved four statements the ADR rests on. The central
decision - no single materializer - is unaffected and stands.

Corrected: decision 3 was already satisfied, so nothing was extracted; the
agents-bypass runtime set omitted claude, kilo and opencode, and closing it
needed three new pieces of descriptor contract rather than proceeding on its
own terms; three of the four blockers the layout comment names were already
stale; and F19 is seven call sites, not four.

Records the generalizable lesson: the defect is the pattern of holding user
data in memory across a wipe, not the helper, so searching for callers of the
helper under-counts by construction.

Also resolves the ADR's open question on USER_OWNED_ARTIFACTS membership, and
notes that copyPreservingSymlink needed routing through the install fs seam
before it could be reused.

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

* fix(#2875): close dangling-symlink blind spot and harden staging recovery

An adversarial review found the F19 staging work shipped red and unsafe.

Root cause, shared by two arbitrary-write findings: hasExistingSymlinkBetween
missed dangling symlinks in both its root check and its per-segment walk,
because it probed with existsSync, which is false for a link whose target does
not exist. Fixing only the new module would have reused a guard that was
itself blind. This guard protects the whole install tree.

Recovery no longer throws: it degrades per entry and per file, so one bad
batch cannot block the others. Previously an unrecoverable entry propagated
out of the first statement of install and uninstall, before the cleanup that
would have removed it - wedging the installer permanently.

Partial fs adapters now throw on any omitted method instead of silently
reaching the real filesystem, closing the trap that let a test poison list
pass while real IO happened.

Staged names must be flat, recovery refuses a dangling destination symlink,
and a batch whose recovery genuinely failed is no longer swept - it was
discarding the only durable copy of the file it had just failed to restore.

Replaces three tests that could not fail, including the one labelled negative
proof.

Known limitation, documented not closed: concurrent installs sharing a staging
key can still lose a batch. A real fix needs a cross-process lock.

* enh(#2875): make the descriptor authoritative for the agents kind

Deletes the inline agent-staging loop in bin/install.js and the
_DESCRIPTOR_AGENTS_RUNTIMES set, so every runtime materializes agents from
its capability descriptor instead of an inline hostBehaviors dispatch.

Closing it needed three pieces of contract the descriptor pipeline never had,
all reducible to one missing input - per-agent resolution context: a
frontmatter-extensions step for claude's effort and disallowedTools, per-agent
model-override resolution for kilo and opencode, and a named branding
converter for hermes, whose rewrite data was already declared.

Seven runtimes were on the loop, not the six the design recorded - kimi-code
was found by a golden fixture, not by analysis. claude-local and kimi-code
both silently lost their agents mid-change; the fixtures caught both and the
cause was fixed rather than the fixtures regenerated.

A parity harness gates the migration: both pipelines over identical inputs,
byte-identical output including filenames, per runtime. It is demonstrated
red before being trusted. Surface and install paths converge for all seven,
which also fixes surface previously writing no agents for these runtimes.

Codex's config.toml strip stays put - it mutates host config, which no
descriptor kind models.

Also routes install-model-override-resolver and install-effort-resolver
through the install fs seam. Both leaked real filesystem IO from the install
call tree; the stricter adapter is what exposed them.

* docs(#2875): record the agents-descriptor migration and correct the ADR count

The _DESCRIPTOR_AGENTS_RUNTIMES allow-list no longer exists, so the host
integration guide told readers to join a set that is gone. Replaces that with
what is now true - declare an agents entry and it installs, on the surface
path as well as install - and points anyone needing a per-agent transform at
the three extension points rather than at a new inline branch.

Corrects the ADR amendment: seven runtimes were on the inline loop, not six.
kimi-code was found by a golden fixture going red, not by reading. That is the
third short count this phase, all from enumerating by symbol or set membership
when the thing that matters is a behavior.

Adds the Changed changeset for the surface-path convergence.

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

* docs(#2875): amend ADR-2866 - claude global always wrote agents on disk

The claude row's global=[skills] described what capability.json declared, not
what the installer wrote. bin/install.js's inline agent-staging loop was never
scope-gated and never consulted the descriptor, so a claude --global install
has always written agents/gsd-*.md.

Phase 6 closes the gap by deleting that loop and declaring agents on claude's
descriptor at global scope. On-disk bytes are unchanged - the golden fixtures
did not move, which is the evidence that the descriptor, not the installer,
was incomplete.

#2218 is unaffected: agents are not trigger-bearing, so the wider row does not
introduce a new shadowing case.

Records the warning that an incomplete descriptor is invisible while a second
code path silently does its work, and only surfaces when the two are forced
into agreement.

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

* fix(#2875): close review findings across staging, agents and the parity harness

Two independent reviews of this branch found defects the local gates missed.

Security: a dangling symlink at a migration destination allowed writing
outside configDir - the same class this change claimed to close, missed at the
terminal write of the flow being added. The staging-root resolver threw as the
first statement of install and uninstall, so a hostile symlink bricked both,
and symlinked-configDir users lost uninstall as well as install; it now
degrades instead of aborting. Recovery gained a source-side symlink check and
now refuses a relative destDir, which resolved against cwd. Converter dispatch
gained a runtime allowlist - lint-time validation stopped mattering once this
branch promoted that dispatch from the surface path to real installs.

Correctness: claude --local --minimal exited 1 because the minimal profile
legitimately yields zero agents and the new path treated that as a failure.
cline --local silently lost its agents - its descriptor declared none while
the deleted loop wrote them unconditionally. The agents prune was widened to
any gsd-* entry and destroyed user files it never owned.

The parity harness, on which the migration's safety argument rested, drove a
synthetic registry and never byte-compared the shipped descriptors; two of its
trap rows could not fail. It now drives the real registry across 13
runtime-scope rows including kimi-code and cline-local, and its red-proof is
demonstrated by corrupting a live capability.json. Three goldens that had
encoded the cline regression as expected behavior were corrected.

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

* fix(#2875): close findings from both mandated review engines

/security-review found the staging source-side walk honouring
GSD_ALLOW_SYMLINKED_DEST, an opt-in documented as relaxing only the write
destination. A symlinked files/ component dereferenced because
copyPreservingSymlink lstats the leaf only, so an intermediate link is
followed. The source walk no longer honours the opt-in; the destination check
still does.

/code-review spec axis found this branch had reintroduced its own bug:
migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill's new symlink refusal threw unguarded after
the legacy dir was wiped and before the staged batch was restored, so a
planted symlink bricked uninstall permanently and orphaned the batch. Refusal
kept, abort removed.

kimi-code local silently lost its agents, the same class as the cline bug, and
the parity harness recorded that exclusion as intentional - the third test in
this branch to pin a regression as correct.

--minimal now creates an empty agents/ dir that never existed. Behaviour
restored rather than softening the changeset, so its byte-identical claim
stays true.

Standards axis: try/finally removed from twelve test bodies, fast-check
properties added for parseOwnerPid, boundary coverage at the grace window and
the ancestor-probe depth, a parity assertion for the staging-root helper
duplicated across two files, and the 8-deep config walk deduplicated.

Records 60-review.json with every finding and disposition from five passes,
including the smells left unfixed and why.

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

* fix(#2875): prune stale agents unconditionally in minimal mode

The previous round stopped an empty agents/ directory being created when the
resolved profile yields no agents. That was implemented by skipping the agents
kind entirely, which also skipped its stale-agent prune - so a full to minimal
downgrade left stale gsd-* agents behind.

The deleted inline loop pruned unconditionally and only skipped writing. Those
are three separate conditions, not one: prune always, write only when there is
something to write, create the directory only when writing.

Both call sites now run _removeGsdEntries before the empty-staged early exit.
The symlink-escape guard moved with it, since the prune also touches dest.
Codex .toml agents and the config.toml stanzas are cleaned again, and
user-owned agents are still preserved.

The agents/ directory is left in place after a prune empties it, matching
every sibling kind - none of them remove the destination directory itself.

Golden fixtures confirmed byte-identical: the prune is a no-op on a fresh
install, so fixture generation is unaffected.

* docs(#2875): document interrupted-install recovery for user-owned files

The durable-staging fix is invisible to the user it protects. Someone whose
install died mid-flight has no way to know USER-PROFILE.md was staged before
the delete, that the next run restores it, or that recovery happens at the
start of that run rather than in the background.

Written as the task the user has - finish the interrupted command - rather
than as a description of the mechanism, and states what it will not do:
overwrite a file already present, or touch staging belonging to another
install still running.

* test(#2875): assert the J8 model override without building a regex

CodeQL flagged incomplete string escaping: the assertion interpolated the
override value into a RegExp while escaping only forward slashes, which is
meaningless in a constructor, leaving real metacharacters unescaped.

The failure direction was the dangerous one - a metacharacter would have made
the match more permissive, so the row would pass when it should fail. That
matters here because J8 exists precisely because an earlier revision was a
tautology; the rewrite reintroduced a different way for the same assertion to
stop discriminating.

Replaced with a line-wise exact match, so no regex is constructed at all.
Swept the other test files this branch adds; no sibling instances.

lint:ci passed on the original - lint-no-adhoc-regex-escape matches a full
metachar-escape copy, so a single slash replace slipped under it.

fd2b97a52a fix(#3544): restore tilde form for at-refs in the global spec tree (#3551)
* fix(#3544): restore tilde form for at-refs in the global spec tree

A global claude install emitted @$HOME/.claude/gsd-core/references/*.md
in its workflows and references. $HOME does not expand in a Claude Code
@-import - only relative, absolute and ~ are documented, and a controlled
/context test confirmed a $HOME import loads nothing - so 54 includes
across 22 files silently resolved to nothing on a live install.

This is a divergence, not a new bug. #3133 already applies exactly this
correction to skill and command bodies through _applyRuntimeRewrites's
claude case; copyWithPathReplacement, the spec-tree emit path, never had
it. Both now call one exported helper, so the two surfaces cannot drift
apart again.

Deliberately narrower than changing computePathPrefix's return value:
shipped markdown also carries double-quoted "$HOME/.claude/..." shell
invocations, and ~ does not expand inside double quotes, so rewriting the
prefix wholesale would regress #1284. Only @-prefixed references move.

Refs #3544

* fix(#3544): derive the tilde restore from the resolved prefix

Three review findings, one batch.

The restore was hardcoded to the literal .claude directory, so a global
install with --config-dir pointing anywhere else silently no-opped and
reproduced the very defect this fixes. It now derives the tilde form from
the resolved prefix, which also closes the same latent gap in #3133's
original path since both call sites share the helper.

The @-anchor is quote-aware, so a double-quoted shell path is never
rewritten into a form the shell does not expand. Deliberately a lookbehind
rather than a line-start anchor: @-references are documented to work
mid-line, and anchoring would have traded a theoretical bug for a real one.

Found while testing the above: the bare-form rewrites re-matched their own
output whenever a config dir name extends .claude, emitting
.claude-work-work. Guarded with the same negative-lookahead convention
this file already uses to preserve .claude-plugin.

The tests prove the emitted form, never that the host resolves it - no CI
test can - and both the helper and the suite now say so, because an
undocumented verification boundary is how this defect stayed green for its
whole life.

Refs #3544

* test(#3544): acknowledge the tilde-restore emitted drift

The converter change moves 94 emitted paths that no source-file diff can
explain, which is exactly the case the per-PR ack fragment exists for.
Verified before acknowledging rather than after: both trees were built
from real installs and every one of the 211 changed lines across all 94
paths is @$HOME becoming @~, with nothing outside that single kind.

Nine spent entries were pruned from the #3151 and #2658 fragments. Those
paths moved again here, and two ack sources naming one path is a hard
duplicate error rather than last-wins, so the inert entries had to go
before this one could land. Both fragments retain their remaining
entries.

2641e6cb67 feat(#2873): detect cross-scope shadowing and reach the local spec tree
4a - the detection floor. A shadowed install now reports which triggers are
shadowed and which scope wins, at install time and through a new W028
/gsd-health diagnostic. Exit codes are untouched: a shadowed install is a
warning, not a failure. Only triggers whose stem exists at BOTH scopes are
reported, so a global full profile beside a local core profile no longer
names local artifacts the user does not have.

4b - spec-root reachability, claude runtime and global scope only. The
winning global skill stops carrying a static workflow @-include and instead
resolves its spec at runtime: prefer the project-local copy, fall back to
the global one, stop if neither exists. Every other @-include stays static,
and the local emission is byte-identical. It runs after the staged-skills
rewrite pass, whose claude branch would otherwise mangle the literal tilde
path into an undocumented $HOME form.

Also fixed inline: readInstallManifest classified a top-level JSON array as

967bddba37 fix(#3384): strip mcp__* tool grants from zcode-installed subagents (#3483)
* fix(#3384): strip mcp__* tool grants from zcode-installed subagents

ZCode's dispatcher treats every mcp__<server>__* entry in an agent's
tools: frontmatter as a required MCP server and hard-fails the subagent
spawn (CONFIGURATION_ERROR) when it is not connected, whereas Claude Code
treats the same grants as an optional allowlist. ZCode shared Claude's
verbatim agents copy (converter: null), so all 8 MCP-granted agents
failed to spawn out of the box with zero MCP servers configured.

Add convertClaudeAgentToZcodeAgent — a line-surgical converter that
filters mcp__* entries out of the frontmatter tools: grant list (both
inline comma and YAML block-list shapes) and preserves every other byte.
Declare it on both of zcode's capability.json agents entries and cut
zcode over to the descriptor-driven agents path
(_DESCRIPTOR_AGENTS_RUNTIMES) so the legacy inline loop stops
deleting+re-copying the converted agents raw. Claude Code, Kimi, and
Gemini install behavior is unchanged.

8bbb3eaabc fix(#3329): reconcile stale managed .sh hook commands on install/update (#3460)
* fix(#3329): reconcile stale managed .sh hook commands on install/update

applySettingsJsonHooks registers the four .sh managed hooks only-if-absent,
so entries registered before the #580/#3393 shellHookOmitsBashRunner fix kept
their bash-runner-prefixed commands forever — /gsd-update re-invokes the
installer but never re-derived existing entries. Add
reconcileManagedShellHookCommands (wired into applySettingsJsonHooks): on
win32+claude it rewrites existing managed .sh entries to the command this
install would generate today, scoped to exact managed basenames so
user-authored hooks are untouched, and inert wherever the bash runner is
still the correct shape.

Also bumps the allow-test-rule ceiling 301→302: PR #3455 added
tests/milestone-lock.test.cjs (the 302nd marked file) without the ratchet
bump, leaving lint-tests red on next.

b9adedbc86 fix(#3151): stop emitting effort: into skill frontmatter (cache invalidation) (#3425)
Claude Code applies SKILL.md effort: as output_config.effort; any change from
the session baseline invalidates the prompt cache at BOTH scope boundaries
(entry + exit, the latter often machine-fired via subagent-completion
notification). The reporter's owned measurement confirms it: /gsd-progress
(effort:low) in a medium session → cache_creation 63,404 (entry) + 18,589
(exit), while a no-effort skill shows none. ~76% of invocations paid in full.

Fix (trek-e AC#2/AC#4): convertClaudeCommandToClaudeSkill no longer emits
effort: into Claude-runtime skill frontmatter (src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts
+ duplicated bin/install.js). normalizeClaudeSkillEffort removed (dead). The six
declaring skills (plan-phase/execute-phase/autonomous/next/progress/stats) no
longer carry effort. Source command files keep effort (input, used elsewhere);
the separate agent-effort surface (#3160) is untouched.

Tests: install-runtime-artifacts #769 block flipped to assert effort is ABSENT
from installed SKILL.md + converter output (the AC#4 behavioral coverage).

dc3c81e93d chore(#3212): src/pattern.cts is the sole owner of runtime-value regex construction — Phase 1 (#3416)
* test(#3412): failing-first suite for the pattern-construction seam

Phase 1 of epic #3212 (ADR-3212 §1/§2/§7). Tests only — src/pattern.cts
and eslint-rules/no-adhoc-regex-escape.cjs do not exist yet, so both
suites fail with MODULE_NOT_FOUND, which is the intended RED.

Locks the measured behavior rather than the assumed behavior:
RegExp.escape hex-escapes the leading character of nearly every string
("abc" -> "\x61bc"), so the suite asserts match-equivalence against an
inlined historical oracle (the implementation being deleted) rather
than byte-equivalence of pattern text — 200 seeded fast-check runs plus
a fixed corpus, 0 mismatches. Also locks the latent character-class
range bug this phase fixes as a side effect: a hyphen-bearing value
interpolated into [...] currently forms a real range and matches an
unintended character; post-migration it must not.

* chore(#3412): src/pattern.cts owns runtime-value regex construction

Phase 1 of epic #3212 (ADR-3212 §1/§2/§6/§7). Adds the pattern seam
delegating to the built-in RegExp.escape, deletes every hand-rolled
copy, and raises the Node floor to the Active LTS line.

The census was low, three times over. ADR-3212 counted 10 copies; a
graph query found 12; the new lint rule — once live — found 27 more.
The difference is that the census counted named helper FUNCTIONS while
the rule counts the escape SHAPE, so inline .replace(<class>, '\$&')
copies were never in scope. ADR §1's actual requirement is that no
module outside the seam escapes a value for regex use, so all of them
are, and CLAUDE.md's no-defer rule makes them this change's work.
Fourth consecutive epic here whose copy count was low — the argument
for ADR-3180 Amendment 3's "state N found by the guard" rule.

Also corrected mid-implementation: the survey reported phase-id.cts's
escapeRegex had 0 external importers. It had 8 production importers,
making its removal a public-surface change to an ADR-2121-owned module
and requiring an update to that ADR's locked-surface test. Blast
radius revised Medium-High -> High.

RegExp.escape is match-equivalent but NOT text-equivalent: it
hex-escapes the leading char of nearly every string ("abc" ->
"\x61bc"). Equivalence is proven by a seeded fast-check property test
against the deleted implementation as oracle. It also fixes a latent
bug: a hyphen-bearing value interpolated into a character class
previously formed a real range and matched an unintended character.

Node floor 22 -> 24 (RegExp.escape is Node 24+), across engines,
.nvmrc, package-lock, 9 CI matrix entries, and 5 docs. The aggregate
`required-tests` context is unchanged and no job was added or removed,
so branch protection cannot be orphaned by the dropped lanes.

Enforced by eslint-rules/no-adhoc-regex-escape.cjs (shape-matched, with
structural provenance for reviewed pattern-fragment constants rather
than a name heuristic) plus a whole-tree companion guard covering the
directories ESLint's globs miss.

* fix(#3412): close the _SOURCE guard evasion, correct two false claims

Three findings from the orthogonal review pass, all fixed.

1. The ESLint rule's `_SOURCE` provenance fallback was pure identifier-
   name matching with no binding check, so `new RegExp(userInput_SOURCE)`
   — a function parameter — sailed past the guard. That is the same
   rename-evasion class issue #3410 documents, reopened by the very
   fallback meant to complement the structural check. Now bound to the
   identifier's actual binding kind: import, require-derived const, or
   module-scope const; parameters, `let`/`var`, and unresolvable
   bindings fail closed. Four RuleTester cases cover the evasion and
   prove the legitimate cross-module case still passes.

2. src/pattern.cts's own header carried the stale pre-correction counts
   (12 copies / 17 call sites) while CONTEXT.md and the design doc
   carried the corrected ones (~39 / ~44) — a self-contradiction inside
   the PR whose entire purpose is deleting divergent copies. Rewritten,
   preserving the durable lesson: a named-function census cannot see
   inline copies; only a shape-matching guard can.

3. The claim that all deleted copies threw TypeError on non-string was
   false. phase-id.cts's copy — the one with 8 external importers — did
   String(value).replace(...) and never threw. The seam's locked
   signature does not coerce, so this is a real, now-disclosed behavior
   change rather than the pure preservation the tests asserted. Audited
   all 32 invocations across the 8 importers and 6 in-file callers:
   every one is safe by construction (upstream truthy guard or a
   string-producing derivation), verified by runtime probe against the
   compiled modules rather than by TS compilation, which cannot see a
   runtime undefined. Corrected the false claim in both the test comment
   and the design doc, and added it to Known limits.

* docs(#3412): add Changed changeset for the Node 24 floor

The only user-visible break in this phase. The escape-behavior change
is internal and match-equivalent, so it carries no user-facing note.

* fix(#3412): resolve the seam's require graph in script fixtures and packaging

Checkpoint 2 came back red with 90 failures on the node24 lane. Three
distinct defects, all introduced by routing scripts/ through the new
pattern seam, none reproducible by any local gate:

1. ~82 failures — tests/adr-index-gate.test.cjs and
   tests/removed-but-needed-lint.test.cjs copy a scripts/*.cjs into an
   mkdtemp fixture and spawn it there (necessary: those scripts resolve
   their scan root from __dirname/.., so running the real script would
   scan the real repo). Each harness hand-listed the dependencies to
   copy alongside. Adding require('../gsd-core/bin/lib/pattern.cjs') to
   gen-adr-index.cjs made both lists silently incomplete ->
   MODULE_NOT_FOUND, plus 17 downstream 'did not emit parseable JSON'
   failures from the same crash.

   Fixed as a class, not an instance: new tests/helpers/copy-script-
   fixture.cjs walks a script's transitive static relative-require graph
   and copies it, so dependencies are derived and never re-declared. It
   throws (naming the unbuilt artifact) instead of letting the child die
   with a bare MODULE_NOT_FOUND. Verified for all four seam-consuming
   scripts: gen-adr-index, lint-removed-but-needed, gen-loop-host-
   contract, sync-runtime-launcher.

2. 2 failures — scripts/ ships wholesale but eslint-rules/ does not, so
   the new scripts/lint-no-adhoc-regex-escape.cjs would be
   MODULE_NOT_FOUND in a published install (#2858 guard). Excluded from
   the tarball, matching the existing precedent for gen-emitted-
   baseline.cjs, which is excluded for the identical reason, and locked
   with a test modeled on that one. Confirmed against a real npm pack:
   890 files, 0 from eslint-rules/, and gsd-core/bin/lib/pattern.cjs
   present (so the other four scripts' requires are legitimate).

3. 6 failures — tests/phase-id.test.cjs asserted the literal escaped
   source text ('0*29', 'PROJ-42'). RegExp.escape is match-equivalent to
   the retired hand-rolled escaper but NOT text-equivalent: it hex-
   escapes the leading character and all hyphens ('0*\x329',
   '\x50ROJ\x2d42'). Verified NOT a behavior change — 576 match
   decisions across all three real interpolation prefixes, zero
   divergence. Those tests now compile each source into the same heading
   regex src/roadmap.cts's searchPhaseInContent builds and assert what
   matches and what does not, including the 'i'-flag canonicalization
   the hex escape has to preserve. Re-pinning the new literals would
   have rebuilt the same brittleness one layer down. Adds a test for the
   property the escape exists for: a dot in '1.2' must not act as a
   wildcard.

Also shares one definition of 'a require' between the packaging guard
and the fixture copier, so the two cannot disagree about what they scan.

* fix(#3412): refuse to copy a fixture dependency outside the fixture root

copyScriptWithDeps resolved each relative require and joined the
repo-relative result onto fixtureRoot. A require resolving OUTSIDE the
repo yields a '../'-prefixed relative path, so path.join climbed out of
the fixture and wrote into the surrounding temp dir (verified:
repoRoot=/repo + depAbs=/etc/passwd wrote /tmp/etc/passwd).

No script in the tree does this today, so this closes an available
escape rather than an active one. Refuses via the existing unresolved-
require path so the failure names the offending specifier. Covered by a
negative proof that the guard fires and that nothing lands outside the
fixture.

* fix(#3412): parse requires instead of pattern-matching them; restore the foreign-prefix contract

Applies all findings from the second orthogonal review round, re-run
because real code changed after round 1.

HIGH (security) — extractRequires stripped BLOCK comments before LINE
comments, so a '//' comment containing '/*' opened a phantom block
comment, and a '//' inside a string literal truncated the line. Both
hid real requires: 'const u="http://x"; require("./real.cjs")'
returned [], and four real requires in gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs were
invisible. Replaced with a real AST parse via espree.

This is ADR-3212's own Decision 4 — tokenizer-first for stateful
grammars — applied to the case it describes; comment/string/regex
nesting is exactly such a grammar, which is why the regex version was
wrong. The function was moved byte-identical out of the #2858 packaging
guard, so the bug PRE-DATES this branch and has been a live blind spot
there: a shipped script could have required an unshipped path
undetected. Fixing it makes that guard strictly stronger than on next.

espree is promoted from a transitive eslint dependency to an explicit
devDependency rather than relying on hoisting. The script parse attempt
sets ecmaFeatures.globalReturn because Node wraps CommonJS bodies in a
function, making a top-level return legal — scripts/check-coverage-gate
.cjs relies on it, and without the flag the guard throws on a file it
is supposed to scan. Verified 0 unparseable across all 324 .cjs/.js
under scripts/, bin/, and gsd-core/bin/, and 0 new violations against a
real npm pack, so the exact extractor does not newly fail the guard.

MEDIUM (security) — the repo-containment check guarded dependencies but
not the entry path. One escapesContainment predicate now guards both.

LOW (security) — containment was lexical while fs follows symlinks, and
a directory symlink could mint a fresh dedupe key per level. realpath
now resolves both repoRoot and each dependency before the decision, and
the realpath-derived path is the dedupe key. Destination layout still
uses the original repo-relative path, so copied trees are unchanged.

MAJOR (standards) — the round-1 behavioral rewrite of phase-id tests
lost the foreign-prefix contract: every assertion was satisfied by an
impl returning [A-Z]+\x2d42, i.e. ANY project code — the exact #3599
bug class the exact-source prevents. The literal assertions it replaced
were catching this. Now asserts the compiled regex REJECTS a different
prefix with the same number.

MAJOR (standards) — the test hand-duplicated production's heading regex
with no parity guard (CLAUDE.md's 'Generative Fix Divergence'). Removed
the parallel surface instead of policing it: src/roadmap.cts exports
buildPhaseHeadingRegex, searchPhaseInContent calls it, the test imports
it. Byte-identical .source and .flags verified for both escaped forms.

MINOR — '..foo' no longer false-flagged as an escape; the inverted
spurious-vs-missing doc claim corrected; the dead allow-test-rule
header removed.

* chore(#3412): backfill changeset pr number to 3416

* fix(#3412): make the escape guard's own regex linear, reword an injection-scan collision

Two CI failures on PR #3416, both in code this branch added.

CodeQL js/redos (high) — REPLACE_CALL_RE's outer alternation let a
bracket run be consumed EITHER by the character-class branch OR one
character at a time by the trailing catch-all, so a failing match
explored both parses of every pair. Measured on the real regex:
n=26 -> 204ms, n=28 -> 791ms, n=30 -> 3475ms, a clean 2^n. This script
scans repo source, so a file with a long bracket run after '.replace(/'
would hang CI outright — a guard against undisciplined pattern
construction was itself the worst pattern in the diff.

Fixed the way ADR-3212 already prescribes: the catch-all branch now
excludes '[' and ']' so a bracket can only be consumed by the class
branch (this is what makes it linear), and every quantifier is bounded
(the locked bounded-quantifiers decision) as a second line of defense.
Now 0ms at n=2000. Disclosed coverage tradeoff, recorded at the
constant: a regex literal with a BARE unescaped ']' outside a class is
no longer matched by this backstop. No census shape has that form, and
the AST rule remains the primary detector.

Verified the guard did not go blind doing it: a real census-shape
violation is still reported, and an allow-adhoc-regex-escape
suppression comment is still honored.

Regression test drives the exported findViolations on a
2000-repetition adversarial input and asserts the RESULT. It makes no
wall-clock assertion — elapsed-time tests are forbidden — so a
regression surfaces as a harness timeout, which is the correct signal.

Prompt injection scan — 'must not act as a regex wildcard' in a test
comment matched the scanner's jailbreak pattern act\s+as\s+(a|an|if|
my). Reworded to 'behave as'. Deliberately NOT allowlisted: silencing a
whole test file over one phrase would blunt the scanner permanently,
and the comment has nothing to do with injection.

Neither failure was reachable from the remote runner — CodeQL and the
injection scan are not in that matrix, so the sha it passed was green
and still wrong.

33fca50d8a test(#3333): fold the runtime & install surface fix-* cluster — Wave 1 (#3341)
* test(#3333): fold the runtime & install surface fix-* cluster — Wave 1

Folds 11 legacy tests/fix-*.test.cjs regression files into their module's
main test suite: 6 folded into existing suites (host-integration-descriptors,
effort-surface-axis, trae-imperative-reference, hermes-skills-migration,
gsd-agent-isolation-guard), 5 renamed to become the module's sole suite
(cursor-hook-workspace-roots, cursor-subagent-isolation,
lint-compiled-artifact-sync, hooks-commonjs-marker,
shared-hooks-dir-resolution). All 195 test() blocks preserved with zero
drops; lint-test-file-count.cjs and eslint remain clean. No production code
changed. Wave 1 of 7 in #3315 (H3 of epic #3053).

* test(#3333): replace try/finally with t.after() in isolation-guard tests

CONTRIBUTING.md bans try/finally inside test bodies (masks failures, not an
approved pattern). The fold in the prior commit carried 27 instances forward
verbatim from the deleted fix-3045-dispatch-isolation-resolver.test.cjs into
an otherwise-clean file. Converts each to the approved per-test t.after()
cleanup pattern — same cleanup call, registered instead of finally-wrapped.
No assertion, fixture, or test-name change; test( count unchanged at 50.

Found by the Standards review pass on Wave 1 (#3333, H3 of epic #3053).

* fix(#3333): restore raw NUL byte mangled by the fold in hermes-skills-migration.test.cjs

The prior fold commit copied fix-2284-hermes-agent-delegate-task-projection's
"collision-robust" test via a text-based Read/Write pipeline, which silently
turned a raw NUL byte (0x00) embedded in two string literals into a regular
space character. That corrupted the test's actual purpose (proving a NUL
byte survives a string-rewrite operation untouched) and produced a genuine
gsd-test failure: `24 !== 1` for `out.split(' ').length`, because splitting
on a space finds every space in the sentence instead of the single NUL byte
the test meant to isolate.

Root-caused by diffing the raw bytes (via `git cat-file blob` + `cat -v`)
between the pre-fold source and the folded target — confirmed exactly two
bytes differ. Restored via a byte-precise patch (latin1 round-trip) touching
only those two lines; test( count and every other byte unchanged.

* fix(#3333): use \x00 escape sequence instead of a raw NUL byte in test fixture

The prior commit restored a byte-exact raw NUL byte matching the original
fix-2284 source, and the production function (applyClaudeCodeBrandSwap) was
confirmed correct in a standalone repro. But the same raw byte still failed
through gsd-test's remote pipeline. Root cause is upstream of gsd-core: some
step in that transfer path does not carry a raw 0x00 byte through untouched.

A raw embedded NUL byte was never necessary here — `\x00` as a 4-character
escape sequence in the source text produces the identical runtime character
(U+0000) without ever putting a raw byte in the tracked file, sidestepping
any byte-oriented transfer step. Applied at both call sites (the fixture
string and the split() delimiter). No behavior change; test( count unchanged
at 76.

* fix(#3333): harden copyWithPathReplacement against a source file vanishing mid-copy (TOCTOU)

Surfaced by this PR's own gsd-test run: tests/install-minimal-hooks.test.cjs
and tests/opencode-command-dir-plural.test.cjs intermittently crashed with
ENOENT reading gsd-core/workflows/zzz-e5-drift-fixture.md. Root cause is
unrelated to test-file consolidation — tests/planning-prompt-drift.test.cjs
writes that fixture directly into the real, shared gsd-core/workflows/ tree
(main() hardcodes its scan root to the real repo) and deletes it in
t.after(); copyWithPathReplacement's readdirSync-then-read loop has no
protection against the listed file vanishing before it gets there, so a
concurrently-running install path can crash entirely on what is otherwise a
completely benign race.

Fixed by skipping (not crashing on) a listed entry that no longer exists by
the time the loop reaches it. Added a regression test that deterministically
reproduces the race (readdirSync snapshot still lists the file; it is
deleted immediately after) and proves both outcomes: no throw, and the
vanished entry's destination is never partially written.

Per CLAUDE.md's no-defer rule, a defect surfaced while verifying this PR is
fixed inline rather than deferred — this overrides one-concern-per-PR.

* fix(#3333): fix third NUL-byte-mangled occurrence missed by prior fix passes

The fold originally mangled three raw-NUL-byte occurrences to spaces, not
two — the earlier byte-restore and escape-sequence commits both only
targeted the fixture string and the split() delimiter, missing
out.includes('[ ]') a few lines below (should read out.includes('[\x00]')).
A remote gsd-test run kept failing on this exact assertion even after both
prior fixes, which is what surfaced the miss. Verified via a standalone
repro using the file's real (not retyped) fixture content: all six
assertions in the collision-robust test now pass. Zero raw NUL bytes remain
in the file; test( count unchanged at 76.

* chore(#3333): add changeset for the copyWithPathReplacement TOCTOU fix

Fixed-type fragment for the production defect fixed inline in this PR
(bin/install.js's copyWithPathReplacement). Exempt from docs/ requirements
per CONTRIBUTING.md (only Added/Changed/Deprecated/Removed require it).

7a7bf19fc1 enhance(#2872): record scope and runtime in the install manifest (#3323)
* enhance(#2872): record scope and runtime in the install manifest

gsd-file-manifest.json gains manifestVersion, runtime and scope, and a new
read-only Installed Surface Resolver Module reads both install scopes for a
runtime in one call -- the first code path in the repo that does.

Phase 3 of epic #2866 (ADR-2866). Blocks Phase 4 (#2873), which resolves
#2218: the resolver's shadowedBy field is that defect expressed as a value
for the first time. It ships computed-and-unread here.

Installed-ness is decided by manifest PRESENCE, never by the new fields, so
a manifest written by an older GSD stays fully functional and no user needs
to reinstall. Recorded runtime/scope are corroboration: a disagreement with
the probed config dir is reported as declaredScopeMatchesProbe: false, never
silently corrected.

readInstallManifest is widened additively -- version/timestamp/mode/files
keep their exact names, types and meanings for all four existing callers.
manifestVersion is a new field rather than a reinterpretation of version,
which holds the package version and is read by the golden-parity fixtures.

Stems are derived from the installed manifest's own file keys, the inverse
of Phase 2's filename composition, guarded by a fast-check round-trip
property plus a kebab-case charset check so a crafted manifest key cannot
put a traversal segment, control character or ANSI escape into a trigger
that Phase 4 renders back to the user.

Also fixes two defects found while working:
- bin/install.js hardcoded manifestVersion: 2 while the reader owned
  MANIFEST_SCHEMA_VERSION = 2. Now single-sourced, with a parity test.
- docs/installer-migrations.md documented an install-state schema of five
  snake_case fields that have never been written; InstallState has only ever
  been { schemaVersion, appliedMigrations }. Corrected with a dated note.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

* fix(#2872): fold review findings from three independent engines

Standards axis:
- convert the manifest-schema suite from a hybrid setup(t) closure to
  beforeEach/afterEach (CONTRIBUTING.md:319-354 Pattern 1). The hybrid was
  neither approved pattern and a new test forgetting the call got no warning.
- SCOPE_ORDER was declared twice with no parity test -- this repo's recorded
  generative-fix-divergence class. Give the ordering one owner: install-scope
  exports it frozen, the layout module and the resolver both import it, and a
  test locks it against scopeRank so the constant and the ranks cannot drift.
- drop the defaultReadManifest passthrough (Middle Man).

Spec axis:
- add the VOLATILE_FILES exclusion test and source comment the acceptance
  table promised and did not deliver. gsd-file-manifest.json stays excluded:
  the new fields are deterministic, but timestamp -- the original reason --
  is unchanged.

Security axis:
- bound the reported manifest runtime at 64 chars, matching the
  truncatePostureValue convention already used in this subsystem. It reached
  declaredRuntime unbounded while the adjacent stems were gated by SAFE_STEM;
  an inconsistent posture on the same attacker-influenceable document. The
  charset stays ungated on purpose -- declaredRuntimeMatchesProbe needs to see
  the real value -- so Phase 4 must sanitize before rendering, recorded in the
  design's Known limits.

Both new parity tests were verified to FAIL when the two sides are made to
disagree, then pass again on revert. Verification runs on the remote runner.

* chore(#2872): backfill changeset pr number to 3323

* fix(#2872): give git fixture construction its own timeout class

PR #3323's full test (windows-latest, 22, shard 2/3) failed with

  gitOrThrow: 'git init' failed -- outcome=timed_out exitCode=null
  gitOrThrow: 'git commit --allow-empty' failed -- outcome=timed_out

from drift-detection.test.cjs's beforeEach, a file this branch never touched.
Every other lane passed the same commit, including windows-latest node 24 on
all three shards, and next is green.

Root cause is a bound sized for the wrong class. DEFAULT_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS is
15000 and its own comment scopes it to plumbing READS -- rev-parse, branch,
log -- against an existing repo. createFixture uses it for six sequential
repo-CONSTRUCTION spawns: init, three config writes, add -A, commit. init and
commit each write dozens of files, and on Windows every spawn is
Defender-scanned. Sibling tests in the failing block took 15.6-22.0s against
a 15000ms bound.

This repo already diagnosed this exact shape once: timeouts.cjs's
HOOK_FANOUT_TIMEOUT_MS records PR #3285 failing in the SAME job with the SAME
outcome=timed_out exitCode=null signature at the SAME bound while every other
lane passed, and concludes 'a bound sized for the wrong class, not a slow
machine'. It was fixed by splitting out a heavier class-norm at 60000. Same
remedy here: GIT_FIXTURE_TIMEOUT_MS = 60000, 4x the bound that failed and half
INSTALL_TIMEOUT_MS.

DEFAULT_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS deliberately stays at 15000 -- a blanket raise would
stop a genuinely hung plumbing read from surfacing fast.

Verified the value reaches the spawn rather than being an ignored option:
spawnSync was monkeypatched before requiring the fixture module, and all six
git construction calls were captured carrying timeout: 60000.

This branch's two new test files shift shard composition, which is how a
pre-existing fragility landed in the heaviest shard on the slowest lane.
Fixed here rather than deferred, per the no-defer rule.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

c2f24265f2 feat(#2870): resolve install scope as a value (#3278)
* test(#2870): failing-first suite for the Install Scope Module

19 tests over the 50-test-matrix rows 1-19. RED by construction: the
module under test does not exist yet, so the suite fails at require with
MODULE_NOT_FOUND until src/install-scope.cts lands.

Every row asserts a returned value with injected env/home/existsSync --
no filesystem, per the issue's acceptance criterion that tests assert the
resolved value directly.

Row 7 asserts the RELATION rank(global) > rank(local) rather than a
literal, so Phase 2 (#2871) can re-base the numbers without a fixture
edit. Row 4 iterates the real runtime registry rather than a hardcoded
list, excluding vscode, which declares configHome.kind none and is never
CLI-installed.

* feat(#2870): add the Install Scope Module

Scope becomes one resolved value instead of a bare string re-derived at
every layer. resolveScope({id, runtime, ...}) returns
{id, configHome, settingsFile, consentRequired, hostPrecedenceRank}.

It COMPOSES resolveConfigHomeFromDescriptor rather than extending it.
That function has 60 dependents across 13 files and 2 process flows -- a
CRITICAL blast radius -- so adding a scope parameter to it, which the
issue's framing invites, would ripple through all of them. Composing
costs nothing and leaves every existing caller byte-identical.

The module owns the InstallScope type name, which previously lived
privately in runtime-artifact-install-plan.cts; that module now imports
it. A fifth spelling of the same concept would have defeated the phase.

settingsFile is null for the 18 runtimes that declare no
settingsFileByScope -- absence is a value, not an error, and inventing a
Claude-shaped default would leak that host's shape onto every other one.

hostPrecedenceRank ships unread: Phase 2 (#2871) is its first consumer.
It is carried as data only, per this issue's out-of-scope note that
precedence semantics belong to that phase.

Vocabulary: the install axis standardizes on local. ConsentRecord.scope
keeps project deliberately -- that literal is serialized into consent
records in the user's home, and renaming it would silently deactivate
every project-scoped capability on the machine. CONTEXT.md records the
boundary mapping instead.

Every environmental input is injectable (env, home, existsSync, cwd), so
the resolved value is assertable with no filesystem at all.

Registration ripple: .gitignore, eslint.config.mjs, CONTEXT.md glossary,
docs/INVENTORY.md, and the inventory manifest (regenerated after
build:lib, never before).

Verified via the remote runner.

* refactor(#2870): route scope re-derivations through the module

bin/install.js resolves scope once per function instead of inline at
each of its 12 sites, and the settingsFileByScope consumer reads it
through resolveScope().

Seven downstream boolean re-derivations now call the module's
isGlobalScope() instead of comparing the literal independently:
runtime-artifact-install-plan, both runtime-artifact-layout kind
builders, dispatchKindEntry, surface, and two install-engine sites. The
fifth through seventh were not named in the issue -- they are the same
re-derivation class, and leaving them would have made the acceptance
criterion false.

_computePathPrefix keeps its isGlobal boolean API, so the projection is
centralized rather than eliminated. resolveScope and isGlobalScope share
one validator, so the two surfaces cannot drift.

TWO SITES DELIBERATELY NOT ROUTED: runtime-artifact-conversion's
rewriteStagedSkillBodies and rewriteStagedCommandBodies. ADR-1508 fixes
the direction as installer/layout -> conversion, never upward, and
install-scope composes runtime-homes, so importing it into the
conversion module would invert that direction. Left as-is on purpose.

Behavior-preserving throughout. Each step was proven by capturing full
layout and plan output -- including every kind's home field and the
hashed contents of emitted files -- before and after, across both scopes
for claude, codex, opencode, hermes, kimi and kilo. Byte-identical.

surface.cts keeps a scope ?? 'global' default before the call because
Layout.scope is optional there; isGlobalScope throws where the old
inline compare returned false, and that difference would have been a
placement regression.

Verified via the remote runner.

* fix(#2870): cover the no-config-home throw and document the strictness

Two findings from the isolated adversarial review.

The vscode case was implemented but untested. resolveScope throws for a
runtime whose descriptor declares configHome.kind 'none', which is the
design's own behavior-table row 13, but the registry sweep excluded
vscode rather than asserting the throw -- so the behavior shipped with
no test. The exclusion is now legitimate because the case has its own
test naming the runtime in the assertion.

isGlobalScope throws where the inline compare it replaced returned
false. No reachable caller can deliver an out-of-union value today, but
the types are not enforced at runtime, so a future caller passing an
optional Layout.scope would crash rather than silently misroute. That is
the better failure -- misrouting writes artifacts to the wrong place --
but it was undocumented, so the reason is now on the function.

Adds the changeset the acceptance criteria require.

* refactor(#2870): route the last two sites; correct the ADR-1508 claim

The previous commit declined to route runtime-artifact-conversion's
rewriteStagedSkillBodies and rewriteStagedCommandBodies, claiming
ADR-1508's dependency direction forbade the import. That reasoning was
wrong, and this commit corrects it.

Two independent reviewers checked the actual import graph:
runtime-artifact-conversion already imports capability-registry,
command-roster, runtime-name-policy and shell-command-projection -- it
depends on leaf-tier siblings today. install-scope imports only
runtime-homes plus node builtins, and runtime-homes imports only node
builtins, so there is no cycle at any depth. ADR-1508 governs the
installer/layout to conversion boundary, not a leaf-to-leaf sibling
import of the same shape conversion already makes.

With those two routed, every isGlobal re-derivation in the tree now goes
through one owner and acceptance criterion 1 is fully met rather than
partially. Nine sites, not the four the issue enumerated.

Also from the review:

Tests were falling through to the real process.cwd() at five local-scope
call sites, which contradicts the acceptance criterion that the resolved
value be assertable with no filesystem. Every one now injects a cwd. One
of the five was a site the review had not spotted.

bin/install.js carried two near-identical copies of the guarded
resolveScope block, one in install() and one in uninstall() -- duplicated
scope logic in the phase whose purpose is removing it. Extracted to one
helper, and the new sites use the file's existing ternary idiom rather
than the if/else that replaced it.

Equivalence re-proven across both scopes for claude, codex, opencode,
kilo and hermes, now including the staged skill and command body
rewrites hashed per file, since those decide the literal spec-root path
baked into every emitted artifact. Byte-identical.

Verified via the remote runner.

* fix(#2870): assert configHome portably instead of with a native separator

The windows-latest node24 shard failed on two install-scope assertions.
The module was right and the tests were wrong: they built their expected
value with path.join, which emits \fake\home\.claude on Windows, while
resolveScope normalizes separators unconditionally to /fake/home/.claude.

That unconditional normalization is deliberate -- backslash paths arrive
on Linux too, so normalizing via path.sep is the documented defect this
repo guards against. Weakening it to make the assertion pass would have
inverted the fix.

Every path.join-built expectation in the suite now goes through
toPosixPath from tests/helpers.cjs, which is the pattern the
no-path-literal-in-assert rule's own valid-case list sanctions. It splits
on the running platform's path.sep and rejoins with forward slashes, so
it reverses whatever path.join produced on that same platform and the
expectation is invariant everywhere.

Two more call sites had the same latent problem and passed on Linux and
macOS by luck; they are fixed too.

This is the class of defect the remote runner structurally cannot catch
-- its matrix is Linux-only, so a green pass there is not evidence of
portability, and CI's Windows lane is the only place it surfaces.

Verified via the remote runner.

0c413bbc9c chore(#3059): close the ESLint glob-coverage escape and guard it (#3277)
* chore(#3059): close the ESLint glob-coverage escape and guard it

62 tracked source files matched no `files:` glob in eslint.config.mjs, so
ESLint skipped them entirely while `eslint .` still exited 0 — including all
26 files under hooks/, the enforcement machinery itself.

Covers 56 of them (eslint-rules/, hooks/, bin/lib/, pi/, examples/, vscode/,
the plugin shims, root *.mjs) and allowlists the 6 deliberate
must-not-compile brand-typing fixtures with a recorded reason each.

hooks/** is covered with n/no-process-exit deliberately off: a hook's whole
contract is its exit code, several exits are load-bearing stdin-timeout
guards where nothing else terminates the process, and ADR-0012/0174 scope the
no-process-exit convention to the Command Routing Hub. bin/lib/ui-safety-gate.cjs
is dual-mode, so it keeps the rule live and takes two targeted disables in its
require.main===module tail instead.

Adds scripts/lint-eslint-glob-coverage.cjs + a node:test drift guard so the
class cannot regrow: allowlist entries require a non-empty reason, the list
ratchets down only (a stale entry fails), and a tracked-count floor means a
broken `git ls-files` fails rather than reporting clean.

Closes #3059

* chore(#3059): apply review findings — correct the changeset count, add parser properties

Isolated adversarial review, confirmed by rebuilding a byte-for-byte replica
of the pre-change eslint.config.mjs: the changeset claimed 44 previously-
unlinted files. The real figure is 56 (56 covered + 6 allowlisted = 62).
That was user-facing CHANGELOG text and was wrong; corrected, along with three
consequential figures in the design record.

CLAUDE.md requires a fast-check property test for parsers and budget limits,
and listTrackedSourceFiles is a parser. The standards review called this
"satisfied in spirit"; it is not. Adds three properties driving the real
exported parser through an injected execFile: extension totality/soundness
including a trailing terminator, backslash-normalization totality, and
CRLF/LF equivalence — the invariant the repo's recurring CRLF defect class
breaks.

Also de-duplicates the anchor rows onto one shared resolver, kept deliberately
independent of the guard's own resolveFileCoverage so an anchor still fails if
that resolution regresses, and records in the guard's header why the
bin/install.js family is NOT allowlisted: it resolves to 2 rules under
ADR-1703, so an entry would trip the allowlist_stale ratchet.

* fix(#3059): make the coverage guard's git call container-safe

The remote runner reported the guard degrading to `git_failed` on both Node
lanes:

  fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/work'

The runner executes in a container where the repo is owned by a different UID,
so git refuses to operate on it. The guard's degraded-verdict path worked
exactly as designed — it reported the failure instead of throwing or falsely
reporting clean — but a guard that cannot run in CI is not a gate.

`git ls-files` is now invoked as `git -c safe.directory=* ls-files`. `-c`
scopes the override to the single invocation and mutates no config file, and
the wildcard is appropriate because this command only enumerates tracked paths
in the repository it is already executing inside.

Adds a regression test that captures the argv through the injected execFile
seam and asserts `-c safe.directory=*` precedes `ls-files`, so the container
case is pinned behaviorally rather than by reading the script's source.

* chore(#3059): backfill changeset PR number

pr:0 placeholder replaced with the real number now that #3277 exists.

58d73dd220 enhance(#3241): omit the codex per-agent model by default (#3276)
* test(#3241): failing-first suite for the codex passive model posture

Locks ADR-2313's D1-D5 before any production code exists, so the tests
bind to the behavior rather than to whatever the implementation happens
to do.

Red-first (fail against the current tree):
  - the resolver path emits no `model` and no `model_reasoning_effort`
  - a whitespace-only model_overrides value yields no pin
  - isAnthropicFlavoredModel / CLAUDE_AGENT_ALIASES on model-catalog
  - the one-time install notice, and its once-per-install dedupe

Regression guards (pass today, must keep passing): resolver-null via
`inherit` and via absent runtime; a resolver that resolves to nothing;
empty-string and non-string overrides; and the light-tier
service_tier/model_verbosity fields, which are NOT coupled to the model
pin and would silently regress if the implementation coupled them.

Classifying each test as red-first or regression guard is deliberate.
A test that passes on both sides of the change proves nothing, and this
epic has already shipped two such rows before catching them.

The whitespace case is a live defect, not a quirk: `'   '` is truthy,
survives the type guard, is not Anthropic-flavored, and is embedded
verbatim as `model = "   "` — the same class the #2310 guard exists to
stop. Same function, same path, fixed in this phase per CLAUDE.md §3.

Two matrix rows were dropped as vacuous rather than shipped green: a
64-char truncation case (the pinned notice interpolates no
user-controlled value, so it cannot exhibit truncation) and a newline
hazard that the input surface cannot reach.

* feat(#3241): omit the codex per-agent model by default

Implements ADR-2313 D1-D5. generateCodexAgentToml no longer embeds the
runtime resolver's per-tier Codex model, so an agent inherits the
always-available session model instead of a pin a ChatGPT-account Codex
may not expose. model_reasoning_effort disappears with it via the
existing hasPinnedModel coupling (#838) — no logic change needed there.

Supersedes #2517's embedding on the default path only. An explicit
real-Codex model_overrides pin is still embedded verbatim, and the #2310
Anthropic-flavored guard is retained: the model_overrides route to it is
still live even though the resolver route is now unreachable.

The shared rule moves down a layer. CLAUDE_AGENT_ALIASES leaves
model-resolver for model-catalog — a genuine leaf importing only
node:path and its own JSON — with isAnthropicFlavoredModel defined beside
it, and is re-exported from model-resolver so every existing importer is
untouched. This is what lets Phase 2's install-check and Phase 3's sync
consume the rule without taking the config-loader dependency
model-resolver would have dragged into a module documented as pure
read/verify with 33 dependents. A parity test fails if the two ever fork.

Also fixes a live defect surfaced while writing the tests: a
whitespace-only model_overrides value was truthy, survived the type
guard, was not Anthropic-flavored, and so was embedded verbatim as
`model = "   "` — the same class the #2310 guard exists to stop, reached
by a different route. Trimmed before the truthiness test. It is
deliberately not routed through _warnCodexModelOverrideDropped, whose
text would misdescribe a blank field as a mis-typed model.

Adds the one-time install notice (maintainer direction, recorded as an
ADR-2313 amendment): one stderr line naming model_overrides and the
session model, deduped per install rather than per agent, and emitted
only for the population that actually loses a pin.

service_tier and model_verbosity stay decoupled from the model (#774);
a regression guard asserts they still emit with nothing pinned.

* docs(#3241): amend ADR-2313, add the model-catalog glossary entry

ADR-2313 gains two dated amendments rather than edits to its merged
text, since ADRs here are append-only.

The first records that a deprecation notice IS offered, reversing the
Migration section's "no deprecation window" position, and states why
that position was wrong rather than just superseding it: the ADR
identified the API-key population as losing something real and then
declined to warn it, in the same document. Hyrum's guidance was applied
to the recourse and not to the notice.

The second records the whitespace-only model_overrides defect and notes
that D2 always implied the fix — the implementation simply never
enforced it and no test covered the case.

CONTEXT.md gains a Model Catalog Module entry. The module had none,
which is why the glossary gate passed without one: check-glossary-refs
verifies that references resolve, not that modules are documented. The
entry records why the Anthropic-flavored rule lives there rather than in
model-resolver, so a later reader does not "helpfully" move it back. The
Model Resolver entry is updated to point at its new home and note the
back-compat re-export.

docs/CONFIGURATION.md carried a claim that is now false: that the
resolved tier ID is embedded into agent frontmatter at install time on
codex and opencode. Corrected to name codex as the exception, with the
400 symptom and the model_overrides recourse.

Changeset leads with the user-visible change and the migration line
rather than the implementation, per the ADR's Hyrum's-Law analysis.

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

* fix(#3241): only notice a lost pin when one was actually embeddable

Review finding from an isolated reviewer. The deprecation notice gated
on whether the runtime resolver would have returned *any* model, but the
question that matters is whether that model would have been *embedded*.

Those differ. The #2310 safety gate already rejected an Anthropic-
flavored model arriving from the resolver path before Phase 1 — so for a
mixed-runtime config resolving to a claude-* id against a Codex install
target, the user never had that pin. The notice told them they lost
something they never got, and pointed them at model_overrides for no
reason.

The existing #2310 test drives exactly that path but asserts only the
emitted `model` line, never stderr, which is why it slipped through. Now
covered.

Deliberately unchanged: an Anthropic-flavored model_overrides value plus
a legal resolver model fires BOTH the override warning and the notice.
That is correct — pre-Phase-1 the guard dropped the override, execution
fell through to the resolver, and the resolver's model was embedded, so
that user did lose a pin. Two messages, two distinct true facts, and the
prefixes differ (`gsd: warning — ` vs `gsd: notice — `) so the
one-notice-per-install contract holds. A regression test now pins that
behavior so it does not get "simplified" away.

Of the three tests added, only the first is red-first; the other two
pass on both sides by design and are labelled as guards — one against
over-correcting the fix into silence, one against removing the
intentional double message.

* fix(#3241): reset the notice dedupe via a seam, not a require.cache bust

The remote runner caught a regression I introduced: the #2760
post-write-validation test began failing with the validator override no
longer intercepting.

Cause, confirmed by trace rather than guessed: the new #3241 review
tests deleted require.cache for bin/install.js and re-required it mid
suite, to clear the notice's module-level dedupe flag. But
runCodexInstall destructures `install` at file load, closing over the
ORIGINAL module's exports. After the cache bust a second instance
existed, so the test's `installModule.__codexSchemaValidator = ...`
mutated the new object while the code under test still called the old
one. The override silently stopped intercepting, the real validator ran
and passed on GSD-emitted output, and the abort-and-restore path was
never exercised.

Cache-busting a module mid-suite breaks every later test that assumes a
single instance, which every other test in the file is entitled to. So
the fix is a seam, not a workaround: bin/install.js exports
_resetCodexNoticeDedupeForTests(), and the three tests call it directly
instead of reloading the module.

The flag is module-level by design — the dedupe is per-install and
install() already resets it — so a unit test driving
generateCodexAgentToml directly needs an explicit way to reset it. That
is now what it has.

Swept the rest of the #3241 diff for the same hazard; this flag was the
only shared module-level state introduced.

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

* fix(#3241): reset both codex dedupe stores, not just the notice flag

Second incomplete fix, same class one layer down. bin/install.js keeps
TWO module-level dedupe stores and the require.cache bust I removed had
been papering over both; my replacement seam cleared only one.

_codexModelOverrideDroppedWarned is a Set keyed `${agent}::${value}`.
tests/codex-config.test.cjs:558 already emits for `gsd-executor::sonnet`,
so by the time the review test using the same agent and value ran,
_warnCodexModelOverrideDropped was a silent no-op and the expected
warning never appeared.

The seam now clears both stores and is renamed to say so. Its comment
records that per-install dedupe lives in module scope deliberately and
that this is the single sanctioned way for a unit test to clear it.

Swept bin/install.js for every other module-scope mutable a test could
latch. Two are inert (capability registries assigned once at require
time; selectedRuntimes computed once from argv). One is a genuine latent
hazard and is deliberately NOT folded in: attributionCache (:1654)
memoizes getCommitAttribution by runtime name for process lifetime, so
two in-process installs of one runtime with differing attribution config
would collide. It is unreachable from any current test and is a
different concern from Codex warning dedupe, so it stays out of this PR
rather than widening it.

* docs(#3241): correct the codex tier-routing how-to

The docs gate forced the task-oriented quadrant and found the worst
defect in this change's documentation surface.

docs/how-to/configure-model-profiles.md carried a section titled "If you
want tiered models on Codex" telling users to set runtime:codex +
model_profile:balanced, promising "GSD resolves each tier alias to the
Codex-native model and reasoning effort defined in the runtime tier
map." That is exactly the behavior this PR removes — a how-to page
confidently instructing users to do something that no longer works,
which is worse than a missing page because it fails at the moment of
use.

Rewritten to state that Codex does no tier routing, give the
model_overrides pin as the supported alternative, and name the two
constraints on what may be pinned: it must be a real Codex model id, and
the account must actually expose it — GSD cannot verify the second, so
the honest advice when unsure is to omit the pin. Carries an upgrade
note for both account types, since the change is a no-op for ChatGPT
accounts and a real loss for API-key ones.

Also tightened the same page's claim that Codex "embeds the resolved
model" at install time — now true only of an explicit override. The
re-install instruction it supports is still correct and still needed, so
only the premise moved.

Both the required-docs set (COMMANDS.md + FEATURES.md) and
lint-docs-required.cjs would have passed before this commit, since
CONFIGURATION.md and the ADR had already moved. Neither checks the
quadrant a user in trouble actually opens.

4b69dc346b fix(#2725): repoint the pre-commit alias guard at sources git can actually stage, drop nine dead ones (#3273)
* test(#2725): failing-first coverage for the inert pre-commit alias guard

Replaces two stale tests that asserted on `sdk/src/query/command-manifest.phase.ts`
— a path retired with the SDK boundary (ADR-0174), so both passed forever while
guarding nothing.

The new matrix drives .githooks/pre-commit through its GIT_OVERRIDE/NPM_OVERRIDE
seams and asserts on the real tracked sources the drift checker reads. Red until
the guard is repointed off the gitignored build outputs it currently watches.

* fix(#2725): repoint the pre-commit alias guard at sources git can actually stage

`.githooks/pre-commit` carried ten staged-path guards and not one of them could
do its job.

Nine anchored on `^sdk/…`, a tree retired by ADR-0174, and invoked npm scripts
that no longer exist (`check:state-document-fresh` and eight siblings). Their
only reachable behavior was to abort the commit with `Missing script` — which
required matching a path that cannot exist, so they were dead twice over.

The tenth was the real defect. Its npm target does exist, but it matched
`^gsd-core/bin/lib/command-aliases\.cjs$` — a gitignored build output
(.gitignore:172). An ignored path never appears in `git diff --cached
--name-only`, so the guard was not stale, it was structurally unmatchable: it
watched the derived layer instead of the source layer, from the day it was
written.

Repointed at the nine tracked `src/*.cts` sources `scripts/check-alias-drift.cjs`
actually reads. The family table moves to `scripts/lib/alias-drift-families.cjs`
so the checker and the hook derive their surface from one list, and a new parity
test fails if a family is added to the checker without the hook learning to watch
its source — the rot mechanism, not just this instance of it.

Matching is now `grep -Fxqf` (fixed strings, whole line): exact path equality,
no regex anchors to get wrong as the list grows. Staged paths are collected into
a variable before matching, because `grep -q` exits on first match and would
SIGPIPE its upstream, which under `set -o pipefail` turns a successful match into
a non-zero pipeline status.

The two CONTRIBUTING.md recipes pasted copies of the hook bodies inline — a third
parallel surface, and one that had already drifted: the pre-commit copy carried
the same dead `sdk/` patterns, and the pre-push copy would have overwritten the
committed hook with a paraphrase that drops the GIT_OVERRIDE seam its test drives.
Both now just point git at the committed files. The pre-push recipe's
`'@example-corp\\.com$'` also never matched anything — inside single quotes bash
keeps both backslashes.

`.githooks/pre-push` was audited for the same rot and has none: it keys on no
paths, no-ops unless GSD_BLOCKED_AUTHOR_REGEX is set, and is covered. Unchanged.

Hooks stay opt-in. Nothing registers `core.hooksPath` for you, per
CONTRIBUTING.md's documented one-time setup.

* test(#2725): make the hook/checker parity assertion bidirectional

Review finding from the isolated adversarial pass: the parity row only caught
the hook UNDER-watching relative to scripts/lib/alias-drift-families.cjs. Drop a
family from the module and the hook would keep watching its source with nothing
to notice — the same divergence class this change exists to close, just pointed
the other way.

The new row takes every `src/*-command-router.cts` on disk as the universe and
asserts the hook stays silent for the eight routers the drift check does not
read. Both directions are now covered by running the real hook, not by comparing
two lists in the test.

Also corrects a CONTRIBUTING.md overclaim caught by the standards pass: 9 of the
11 watched paths derive from the module, not all 11 — bash cannot require a CJS
module, so the hook carries literals and the test is what binds them.

* fix(#2725): ship the shared family table and fix the mock that hid its own rows

Three defects the remote runner caught that local probing did not.

The mock `git` in the regression test emitted its staged-path payload as
`printf '%s' "src/command-aliases.cts\n"`. Bash does not expand `\n` inside a
double-quoted string and printf does not expand escapes in a `%s` argument, so
the mock produced one unterminated line containing a literal backslash-n. No
whole-line match could ever succeed, and every row that expects the hook to FIRE
failed while every row that expects silence passed — which is exactly the
signature the run reported: 9 failures, all of them fire-expecting rows. The
payload now goes through a file the mock `cat`s, which is byte-exact and is what
makes the CR-terminated and empty-staged-list rows mean what they say.

`scripts/lib/alias-drift-families.cjs` was not enumerated in
`GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES` (bin/install.js:377), so the installer never copied it.
That is not cosmetic: `scripts/check-alias-drift.cjs` ships, and it now requires
this module — an installed tree would have failed with MODULE_NOT_FOUND the
first time a consumer ran `check:alias-drift`. Added to the manifest, which is
what the #3184 install/uninstall parity tests assert against `readdirSync`.

Regenerated the 19 committed install-tree fixtures via `npm run gen:install-tree`
to record the new emitted path. The diff is +1 line per fixture and nothing else.

`npm run lint:ci` exits 0. The earlier claim that `scripts/` is outside the
emitted surface was wrong: `scripts/lib/` is copied into every runtime's install
tree, which is why 19 golden-install-tree cases moved.

342590c70e refactor(#3184): milestone windowing has one owner and a decidable failure signal (#3209)
* test(#3184): failing-first milestone-window single-owner suite

Covers the 50 input classes in the phase test matrix: scope classification
(genuinely-empty vs truncated vs unscoped vs unreadable), the section-end
owner's level boundaries, consumer-output identity per ADR-3180 Decision 4(c),
the milestone.complete refusal with negative proof that no directory moved,
the version-token boundary defect, drift-guard behavior, and three fast-check
properties over document-shaped generators.

Committed alone so the remote runner records the failure before the fix lands.

* refactor(#3184): milestone windowing routes through one owner

Three copies of the milestone section-end walk lived in roadmap-parser.cts —
two distinct computeSectionEnd function nodes plus an inline third in
getMilestonePhaseFilter's versionOverride branch. computeMilestoneSectionEnd is
now the sole owner and the other two are deleted, not kept in sync by comment.

The whole-repo drift guard found what the epic did not: state.cts held three
more re-derivations of the same vocabulary — two byte-identical milestone
bounding checks carrying a defect neither reported copy has (no boundary after
the version token, so v2.0 matched inside v2.0.1), and a milestone-sectioning
predicate. All three route through the owner now.

A composition-level duplicate appeared inside this change's own first pass:
getMilestonePhaseFilter and cmdMilestoneComplete each re-assembled a window out
of the owner's primitives, and had already diverged on whether to skip a closed
milestone heading. sliceMilestoneWindow is the one composition.

Windows now carry the ADR-3180 SCOPE discriminator, so a truncated window is
distinguishable from a genuinely empty milestone — those were output-identical,
which is the whole failure class. roadmap analyze emits it (#3165), and
milestone complete refuses to archive on anything but COMPLETE rather than
pass-all moving every phase directory on disk (#3166). The pass-all degrade is
preserved where its premise holds: making the filter deny-all would trade a
silent over-inclusive answer for a silent under-inclusive one on the read paths
that count with it.

extractCurrentMilestone keeps its signature — 200+ affected symbols across 41
files and 25 process flows — and is a one-line wrapper over the scoped owner.

* fix(#3184): fence-aware phase detection and one heading-selection owner

Review fixes from the two orthogonal passes.

The blocker: hasPhaseEntries matched ATX phase headings fence-aware via
tokenizeHeadings but tested the #2199 bullet form against un-stripped markdown,
so a fenced EXAMPLE of the bullet syntax counted as a real phase. A genuinely
empty milestone then classified TRUNCATED and milestone complete refused a
legitimate archive — a false positive in the destructive direction, worse than
the defect this phase set out to fix. Both that path and getMilestonePhaseFilter
own pre-existing bullet scan now run on stripFencedCode, since leaving one meant
the owner file gave two different answers to the same question.

The selection rule — locate, prefer the non-closed heading, else the first — had
been written three more times inside the file whose thesis is single ownership.
selectMilestoneHeading owns it; all three sites route through it. The copies were
behaviorally identical, so this is de-duplication with no observable change,
verified by probing that all three paths select the same heading.

roadmap analyze emitting a scope no consumer read left #3165's actual symptom
alive, so Route 0 in next.md now treats a non-complete scope as scan-failed
rather than as a clean empty scan, and the ADR amendment no longer overstates
what shipped.

Also: the scope refusal moved above the archive-directory create, so a refusal
leaves nothing on disk; the versionOverride comment names all four consumers;
COMMANDS.md documents the new guard beside its sibling.

* test(#2658): exclude the changelog from the malformed-path scan

The gate walks every emitted .md/.js/.cjs file in an installed tree and asserts
none contains `.claude/.trae/rules` or `.trae/.trae/rules`. CHANGELOG.md ships
into that tree, and its #2658 entry quotes both malformed paths while describing
the fix that removed them — so the release note documenting the fix trips the
fix's own regression test. Red on next before this branch.

The installer is correct: a probe over a real --trae --local install found 621
emitted files, exactly one hit, and it was gsd-core/CHANGELOG.md. The scan scope
was the defect, not the product.

Excluded by exact relative path rather than by loosening the patterns or skipping
all markdown — the emitted agent and command markdown is precisely what #2658 was
about, so the gate stays strong everywhere it matters.

* test(#3184): regenerate install-tree fixtures for the shared drift scanner

scripts/lib/ ships in the npm package and installer, so extracting the shared
tree-walk into scripts/lib/drift-scan.cjs adds one path to every runtime's
install tree. Regenerated via npm run gen:install-tree; the delta is exactly
that one path per fixture.

The two drift guards themselves do not ship (scripts/lint-*.cjs is excluded),
so only the extracted library moves. This matches the existing
scripts/lib/allowlist-ratchet.cjs precedent, which is likewise a lint-only
helper carried in the shipped tree.

* fix(#3184): restore the #730 sub-milestone boundary and narrow the refusal

The remote runner caught two regressions this branch introduced. Both were mine,
and neither review pass found them — only running the existing suite did.

The version-token boundary. I replaced locateMilestoneHeadings' \b with
(?![\w.-]), reasoning that v2.0 matching inside v2.0.1 was the same defect #2562
fixed in isMilestoneShippedInRoadmap. It is not the same question. A milestone
state of v8.0 legitimately selects the '## v8.0-B' sub-milestone section over a
closed v8.0-A sibling (#730), and \b is what allows it while the stricter
boundary forbids it — nine tests in roadmap-phase-fallback said so. Reverted to
\b; the state.cts consolidation is now a straight merge with no behavior change,
and the v2.0/v2.0.1 ambiguity is left exactly as it was. The ADR amendment and
the design doc no longer claim otherwise.

The refusal scope. I refused whenever the window was not COMPLETE, but #3166 is
about the TRUNCATED window specifically — the heading is found and the section
closes before the phase region, so pass-all archives everything. UNREADABLE and
UNSCOPED are pre-existing, legitimately handled states, and refusing on them
broke 'handles missing ROADMAP.md gracefully' and three archive tests. Narrowed
to TRUNCATED; docs corrected to match.

One of the new tests was also wrong: its fixture gave the shipped and current
milestones' phases the same numeric id, and the filter matches on that id, so it
could not have distinguished the two windows. Fixture corrected to exercise what
it claims to.

* fix(#3184): enumerate drift-scan.cjs for uninstall

The installer copies scripts/lib/ wholesale, but uninstall removes an explicit
set — deliberately, so a user's own helpers in that directory survive. The
extracted drift-scan.cjs was copied in and never enumerated, so it outlived
uninstall, left the directory non-empty, and the rmdir that follows failed.

Added to GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES, following allowlist-ratchet.cjs, which is
likewise a lint-only helper that ships there and is enumerated. Verified with a
real install-then-uninstall into a temp target: scripts/lib/ held exactly the
three GSD files and was gone afterwards.

* test(#3184): assert install and uninstall agree on scripts/lib and scripts/changeset

Found while shipping this phase, and fixed here rather than noted.

install() copies scripts/lib/ and scripts/changeset/ into the target WHOLESALE —
the comment at the copy site literally says "and any future lib helpers".
uninstall() removes them by hardcoded enumeration, deliberately, so a user's own
helpers in those directories survive. A wholesale writer paired with an
enumerated remover cannot stay in sync by construction: any file added to either
directory ships to every user and is then orphaned in their repo forever, since
it survives uninstall, leaves the directory non-empty, and the rmdir that follows
fails. Nothing reported this. 31,225 tests were green over it.

That is the same divergence class this epic exists to delete, sitting in the
installer, so it gets the same remedy CLAUDE.md prescribes for it: a parity
assertion that fails the moment the two surfaces disagree. The test compares each
directory's real contents against its enumeration and names the offending file
plus the constant to add it to.

Both enumerations are hoisted to module scope and exported, so the test asserts
on the actual arrays rather than pattern-matching the installer's source — no
allow-test-rule annotation needed. Proven non-vacuous both ways: empty diff on
the current tree, correct report when an unenumerated file is injected.

scripts/changeset/ turned out to carry the identical defect and is covered too.

* chore(#3184): backfill changeset PR number

Also narrows the wording to match the shipped behavior: the refusal fires on a
truncated window specifically, not on any non-complete scope.
