d98b55562c enhance(#3910): the raw terminator is banned by construction (#3980)
* enhance(#3910): move the last src/ terminators onto the seam

Phase 6 bans the raw terminator by construction, which it cannot do while
violations stand. A census found 12 sites the rule would flag; nine of the ten
unsanctioned ones were owned by no phase of the epic at all — a coverage hole
in the decomposition, since P0-P2 are infra, P3 the gate modules, P4 the
scanners, P5 the fragments, P7 the hooks, P8 io.cts, and P6 itself only adds
the rule. `src/**/*.cts` now holds exactly 2 raw exits, both inside
`terminateNow`, the single sanctioned site.

`io.cts`'s `error()` is the interesting one. It was first called substantive on
"dozens of callers, contract risk" — asserted, not measured, and the
measurement refuted it: 289 call sites, zero inside a try whose catch would
swallow a throw. The real obstacle was structural instead: `terminateNow`
cannot emit exit 1, because ADR-3889 §1 makes 0 and 1 unallocatable and
`nameForExitCode(1)` throws. So the only route is `ExitError` under `runMain`,
which sets exitCode and writes stderr only when the error carries a user
message — keeping the existing stderr write and throwing a message-less
ExitError is observably identical.

That census was still too narrow, and running the CLI proved it. It asked
whether the CALL sits in a try/catch; the two regressions that surfaced were
interceptors elsewhere on the stack:

- `command-routing-hub.cts`'s `dispatch()` swallowed the ExitError into a
  HandlerFailure, so the caller emitted a duplicated, wrong stderr line on
  every Hub-routed path. It now rethrows ExitError explicitly — the same shape
  `gsd-tools.cjs` already used at two dispatch sites, so this follows an
  established idiom rather than inventing one.
- the profile-pipeline router's deliberately un-awaited `.catch(e => error(...))`
  turned an ExitError rejection into an uncaught exception; it now mirrors
  runMain's handling.

`edge-probe` and `ui-consideration-probe` gained `runMain` wrappers because
probe-core's new throwing default would otherwise have escaped them.

A follow-up sweep of every dispatcher — 19 command routers, the Hub, the
gsd-tools dispatch seams — found no further swallowing catch. The admitted
bound: ~1260 non-rethrowing catches repo-wide were scanned structurally but not
individually classified. Both real regressions were found by execution, not by
reading, so the suite is the detector that matters here.

`gsd-tools.cjs:253` stays a raw exit deliberately: it is the ensureRuntimeBuild
bootstrap, which runs before cli-exit is required, so the seam does not yet
exist. It needs a second allowlist entry, which means #3910's "single allowlist
entry" criterion is unachievable as written.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

Refs #3910

* enhance(#3910): ban the raw terminator by construction

Adds local/require-registered-exit and registers it on all four globs:
src/**/*.cts, scripts/**/*.cjs, hooks/**/*.js, gsd-core/bin/**/*.cjs.

Registering on the .cts glob is load-bearing, not redundant — the emitted .cjs
mirrors are globally eslint-ignored, so a rule registered only on the emitted
globs is blind to the sources. That is the #3496 lesson, and it is how the
previous guard became invisible: n/no-process-exit was 'error' in one block yet
fired zero times on all three surfaces that mattered.

The dead n/no-process-exit: 'off' block for hooks is deleted in the same PR.
Phase 7 migrated every hook, so the exemption now protects nothing.

Two allowlist entries, not the one #3910 anticipated. terminateNow's body is
detected STRUCTURALLY — a process.exit lexically inside a function of that name
— rather than by a path and line number that rots. The second is
gsd-tools.cjs's ensureRuntimeBuild bootstrap, an inline disable with its reason
at the call site: it runs before ./lib/cli-exit.cjs is required, so the seam
does not exist yet and no migration is possible. #3910's 'single allowlist
entry' criterion is therefore unachievable as written, and is amended with the
measurement rather than quietly missed.

The rule is proven able to FAIL, per glob: four positive controls, one for each
registered glob. A guard that cannot be shown to fire is not a guard. Four
matching negative controls pin process.exitCode as never-flagged — conflating
it with process.exit is what inflated this epic's original census 2x. An
allowlist case and a near-miss (same shape, different function name) fix the
structural detection in place.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

Refs #3910

* fix(#3910): stop the detached catch from throwing, and scope the allowlist

Review findings, one of them a regression the previous fix introduced.

_handlePipelineRejection called error() from inside a DETACHED .catch().
error() now throws, so that throw became an unhandled promise rejection — and
on Node >=15 with --unhandled-rejections=throw, Node dumps a raw stack trace
with absolute paths on top of the clean Error: line. That was impossible before
this branch, because process.exit(1) terminated synchronously before any
rejection machinery could observe it. The handler now writes byte-identical
stderr itself, in both plain and --json-errors form, and sets exitCode in
place. This was the THIRD interceptor found, and like the first two it surfaced
by running the CLI rather than by reading code.

The rule's terminateNow allowlist had no path constraint, so any function
anywhere named terminateNow across all four globs inherited it. It now requires
the structural nesting check AND a cli-exit.cts basename — still no line
numbers to rot.

The four per-glob positive controls only varied a filename inside RuleTester,
which never resolves eslint.config.mjs. Since the rule is filename-agnostic,
all four exercised identical logic and none proved the rule was WIRED — this
epic's own failure mode. A registration test now asserts the rule resolves for
a real path in each glob, and it is proven able to fail: removing one glob's
registration flips the resolved value from [2] to undefined.

Three evasions the rule cannot catch (computed member, aliasing, .call/.apply)
are documented in its header and pinned by tests, labelled as known limits
rather than endorsed, so a future change that starts catching them is a
deliberate diff.

Refs #3910

* docs(#3910): document the raw-terminator ban

Reference and Explanation via a new docs/features fragment (FEATURES.md is
generated from it, not hand-edited). How-To:
docs/how-to/resolve-a-raw-terminator-finding.md, indexed from docs/README.md —
a contributor whose code trips the rule picks among three replacements by
surface (runMain/ExitError for a CLI path, terminateNow for a hook,
process.exitCode where the process should drain), and needs to know why
process.exitCode is correct and never flagged, since conflating the two is what
inflated this epic's original census 2x.

The page also names the three patterns the rule cannot catch and says plainly
that using one to dodge it is a review finding, not a fix — documenting them
without that sentence would read as a sanctioned workaround.

docs/INVENTORY.md deliberately untouched: eslint-rules/ is not a tracked family
in the manifest (verified — a regen produced a zero diff), so a hand-written row
would desync the table from the family it claims to belong to.

Refs #3910

* fix(#3910): a catch that sniffs the message swallows an ExitError

The remote run returned 41 failures, and one of them was a live production
regression rather than a test artifact.

`cmdMilestoneComplete`'s unstarted-phase guard re-threw only when
`e.message.startsWith('Cannot mark milestone complete:')`. `error()` used to
`process.exit(1)`, uncatchable, so the guard always fired. It now throws an
ExitError carrying no message, the string test fails, and the ExitError was
silently swallowed — the guard stopped blocking milestone completion entirely.
Proven against the real CLI: pre-fix, a milestone with an unstarted phase
archived at exit 0; post-fix it is blocked at exit 1 with the intended message.

That is a guard that silently stopped guarding, which is this epic's thesis
appearing inside the phase meant to enforce it. Worth stating plainly: an
earlier census DID examine this site, saw a `throw e`, and classified it as
rethrowing. It was wrong — the rethrow is conditional, and a conditional
rethrow on an inspected message is indistinguishable from an unconditional one
unless you read the predicate.

So the class was swept rather than patched where it was tripped over. An AST
census of every CatchClause across src/, gsd-core/bin/ and scripts/ found 38
conditional rethrows. Two more had the same defect and are fixed the same way:
`config.cts`'s `'No config.json'` sniff and `gsd-tools.cjs`'s
`e.name === 'WindowsError'`. The remaining 25 are provably unreachable — every
one wraps a bare fs, YAML, manifest-require or git-exec primitive that cannot
throw ExitError — and two were scanner false positives, both explained. Each
fix is an unconditional `instanceof ExitError` rethrow placed BEFORE any
inspection, matching the idiom command-routing-hub and gsd-tools already used.

Residual bound, stated rather than implied: zero known-reachable unfixed sites,
contingent only on error() never later being called inside one of those 25
primitive try blocks.

The remaining failures were harness artifacts, and the harnesses were corrected
to the new contract rather than the assertions weakened. Tests that mocked
`process.exit` to observe termination now catch ExitError and assert its code;
tests parsing stderr as a single JSON object still assert exactly that, with
their ad-hoc `node -e` scripts wrapped in runMain so it is true. milestone and
phase-resolution-parity needed no test change — they were correctly written
against the real bug and are what caught it.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

Also reframes the fragment to lead with the user-visible change — the

312c9d3ec3 fix(#1907): validate per-item shape in isValidReport so adapter garbage fails closed (#1910)
* fix(#1907): validate per-item shape in isValidReport so adapter garbage fails closed

isValidReport checked only the container (items is-array, coverage scalars), so a report
like {items:[{}]} sailed through runProbeCli and stringified as green output — despite the
docstring promising it 'fails closed on adapter garbage'. Add a per-item Item-contract guard
(requirement_id/category/status + typed nullable fields) so a future adapter that bypasses
the analyzeCoverage merge and returns per-item garbage inside a well-shaped envelope fails
closed (exit 2) instead of emitting it as valid coverage.

analyzeCoverage always emits fully-populated, validated Items, so the 2 shipped adapters are
unaffected (verified across the edge/prohibition suites).

a4bc04a5ff fix(#1905): normalize hand-authored backstop marker so it can't degrade to green (#1909)
* fix(#1905): normalize hand-authored backstop marker so it can't degrade to green

A hand-authored non-inferable `backstop` truth with a stray trailing space (or
surrounding quotes) silently graded {status:green} instead of abstaining — the exact
#1154 false-pass. `truthVerification` returned null for any value != 'backstop'/'explicit',
and the frontmatter continuation-KV parser preserved the stray whitespace captured inside
the quotes. Normalize the marker before comparison (Postel) AND trim the continuation-KV
value at the parser (durable root cause; also cleans the sibling check_target path).

Regression: a trailing-space/quoted backstop truth now abstains (insufficient_spec),
end-to-end from a hand-authored must_haves.truths block (#1820 rail).

18995380ce feat(#1154): honest verifier — abstain (insufficient_spec) on non-inferable backstop truths (#1738)
* feat(verify-phase): honest verifier — abstain (insufficient_spec) on non-inferable backstop truths (#1154)

Carry the edge-probe's existing `backstop` (non-inferable) tier through the
plan-phase projection as a structured flat-scalar marker instead of a prose
parenthetical, and make verify-phase abstain -> human_needed (never silent-pass)
on a backstop truth it cannot confirm with explicit evidence. Truth-axis mirror
of #644's prohibition judgment-tier (ADR-550 D4).

Engine (deterministic, CI-tested per ADR-550 D5 — never the LLM verdict):
- src/probe-core.cts: truthStatement/truthVerification normalizers, projectTruths
  (conservative serializer), dispositionForUnverifiableTruth (backstop+no-evidence
  -> unverified/flagged/insufficient_spec; backstop+evidence -> green; inferable
  -> green, the over-abstention guard).
- src/roadmap.cts: coerceTruthToString now reads `statement` first so an object-form
  backstop truth is surfaced, not dropped (Hyrum backward-compat for truth-readers).

Workflow/agent/docs: plan-phase emits the structured marker (flat scalar, ADR-550
#1278); verify-phase + gsd-verifier add the abstain arm; new references/honest-verifier.md;
FEATURES/COMMANDS document insufficient_spec; ADR-550 amended (truth-axis D4 mirror).

Decisions adopted (trek-e review): insufficient_spec feeds existing human_needed with a
distinguishable reason (no new VERIFIER_STATUS); changeset Changed; round-trip parity
test; abstain-on-unconfirmed-backstop regression test red-first.

Implementation notes (deviations from the issue's proposed file list, verified live):
- frontmatter.cts needs no change — its flat parser already round-trips object-form truths.
- verify.cts needs no change — it grades artifacts/key_links structurally; truths are
  LLM-graded at the workflow layer, so consumption lives there + the deterministic helper.
- No CJS<->SDK hand-sync — the SDK seam was retired (ADR-0174); src/*.cts is sole source.

Regenerated artifacts: golden-install-parity fixtures, INVENTORY-MANIFEST, size baselines.

* chore(#1154): add changeset (Changed) for honest verifier

User-facing changelog fragment for #1738. Typed `Changed` (not `Added`) per
trek-e review condition 3 — the verify behavior shifts for backstop-bearing specs
(a confident silent `passed` becomes `human_needed`), which is user-visible even
though the schema marker is additive.

* docs(#1154): score-formula also excludes abstained insufficient_spec truths (review nit-1)

trek-e review nit: the verify-phase score sentence said PRESENT_BEHAVIOR_UNVERIFIED
truths were "the only ones excluded" from verified_truths. Post-#1154 an abstained
`insufficient_spec` backstop truth is also excluded (it is not ✓ VERIFIED and routes
to human_needed). Behavior was already correct; this tightens the wording.
Regenerated golden-install-parity fixtures + workflow-size baseline for the touched
verify-phase.md. (Nit-2 — a dedicated insufficient_spec_items frontmatter list — is
intentionally not taken: the current design is ADR-550-D4-conformant, the abstain
cause rides as a distinguishable report reason, and adding it would exceed the
approved scope.)

c09c13f295 enhance(verify-phase): node-test causation control — prove the RED is content-caused (#1346)
The #1279 node-test machine-proof confirmed a known-bad subject drives the
negative test RED, but could not distinguish a genuine content-violation from a
deceptive test that reds merely because GSD_PROHIB_SUBJECT is set. Add an
optional fifth flat scalar `check_clean_fixture` (-> CheckDescriptor.cleanFixture)
threading a KNOWN-CLEAN control subject through projectProhibitions +
descriptorFromProjection. When present, the prover also runs the check against
the clean subject and requires GREEN, so fail-first is proven only when the check
is RED on the violation AND GREEN on the clean subject (content-dependent).

Opt-in and additive: absent a clean fixture the prover behaves exactly as
post-#1314 (no control, documented residual), preserving the zero-authoring
compose path; the lint-rule kind needs no analog (its subject IS the linted
file, no env indirection). Coverage: RED-first deceptive case, positive,
missing-clean fail-closed, round-trip read-back/emit, fast-check property
extended to the 5th scalar, and an end-to-end COMPOSE capstone (honest vs
deceptive). Docs: ADR-550 dated addendum, prohibition-probe reference,
spec-phase + verify-phase workflows.

Closes #1346

56d4a1bf39 enhance(#1279): project check_violation_fixture scalar — #1278 locate + #1279 proof compose end-to-end (#1346)
Delivers option (a) from the #1314 maintainer review: thread a fourth flat
scalar check_violation_fixture through the projection so a prohibition authored
at spec-phase machine-proves fail-first and greens through the deterministic
path alone — zero hand-authoring at verify time.

- src/probe-core.cts: Prohibition gains check_violation_fixture?; projectProhibitions
  emits it (both kinds) ONLY for a well-formed descriptor and ONLY when non-empty
  (blank/absent -> projects absent -> producer hard-gates, never a partial green).
- src/prohibition-enforcement.cts: descriptorFromProjection reads it back into
  violationFixture via the same numeric-coercion-safe scalar() normalizer.
- Tests (RED-first, proven non-vacuous by reverting both src edits): CHK-02(#1346)
  projection emit, CHK-08(#1346) read-back, CHK-03(D) example round-trip, the
  fast-check round-trip property extended to the 4th scalar (the contract trek-e
  blocked #1301 on), and a real-subprocess COMPOSE capstone greening end-to-end
  through project -> descriptorFromProjection -> default prover+runner.
- Docs flipped from 'hard-gates until #1346' to 'composes end-to-end': verify-phase.md,
  prohibition-probe.md, spec-phase.md authoring, ADR-550 addendum, changeset.
  #1346 now tracks only the node-test causation residual.

190 affected-suite tests green; eslint + tsc clean; size baseline regenerated.

* test(1278): RED-first descriptor parity + fail-closed guards + CHK-07 byte-stability (wave 1)

- CHK-03 (RED): extend PROB-14 parity in prohibition-probe.schema.test.cjs to carry the flat
  check_kind/check_target/check_rule scalars through project->write->parseMustHavesBlock; the
  non-droppable check_kind-presence assertion is the load-bearing RED trigger (fails because
  projectProhibitions strips check_* on the current build).
- CHK-07 (GREEN forward-guard): probe-core.test.cjs pins descriptor-less byte-stability +
  dispositionForProhibition fail-closed policy, with a t.todo marker forward-locking plan 01-02.
- CHK-06 (RED): prohibition-enforcement.test.cjs asserts descriptorFromProjection export +
  fail-closed on absent/partial/unknown descriptors via the projection adapter (RED until 01-03).
- No src/*.cts or .cjs edits; no new test files; lint-test-file-count clean.

* feat(1278): add optional flat-scalar check descriptor fields to Prohibition interface (wave 2)

- check_kind?/check_target?/check_rule? mirror CheckDescriptor.kind/target/rule (minus caller-attested failFirst, #1279)
- optional so existing Prohibition consumers compile unchanged

* feat(1278): project check descriptor as flat scalars in projectProhibitions (wave 2)

- emit check_kind/check_target (+ check_rule only for lint-rule with a rule) when descriptor well-formed
- under-specified/descriptor-less items project byte-identically (CHK-07); flat scalars ride existing parseMustHavesBlock continuation-KV path (no parser rewrite)
- add CHK-02 probe-core unit cases pinning the projection
- turns CHK-03 parity test GREEN; dispositionForProhibition untouched

* feat(1278): descriptorFromProjection read-back adapter feeds fail-closed locate (wave 3)

- Add descriptorFromProjection(projected) -> CheckDescriptor | null to
  src/prohibition-enforcement.cts: renames the projected flat scalars
  check_kind/check_target/check_rule -> {kind,target,rule?}, or null when
  the descriptor is absent/non-object (no check_kind key).
- failFirst is NEVER sourced from the projection (stays caller-attested; #1279).
- rule is set only when check_rule is a non-empty string; the adapter does NOT
  re-validate kind/target/rule — an under-specified descriptor reconstructs to
  one the EXISTING runProhibitionEnforcement LOCATE guard rejects (located:false,
  never green). The merged #1259 guard stays the single source of fail-closed truth.
- Turns the RED CHK-06 fail-closed tests (plan 01-01) GREEN end-to-end; CHK-03 /
  CHK-07 stay green. CheckDescriptor type, locate guard, dispositionForProhibition,
  and parseMustHavesBlock are unchanged (additive +36/-0).

* feat(1278): verify-phase locates prohibition check from projected descriptor (wave 3)

- request.check kind/target/rule sourced from projected check_kind/check_target/check_rule via descriptorFromProjection, not verifier invention (CHK-05)
- replaces the #1278 author-supplied / tracked-follow-up note with the delivered deterministic-locate behavior
- preserves fail-closed routing: absent/partial descriptor -> never green, hard-gate in both modes
- failFirst stays a verify-time caller attestation; #1279 bounds the remaining fail-first proof

* feat(1278): spec-phase captures wired-check descriptor on test-tier resolution (wave 3)

- Step 5.6 'Keep it' / verification: test path captures check_kind/check_target/check_rule, projected onto must_haves.prohibitions for verify-phase deterministic locate (CHK-04)
- SOFT capture: a test-tier prohibition without a descriptor is still allowed (no hard authoring block); stays fail-closed/flagged downstream
- --auto captures only an unambiguous descriptor, never fabricates a check path
- failFirst NOT captured at spec-phase (verify-time attestation; #1279)
- PROB-06 soft-gate + text-mode (PROB-09) behavior unchanged

* chore(1278): re-baseline workflow size for grown verify-phase + spec-phase prose (wave 3)

- spec-phase.md 28438 -> 30343 (+1905), verify-phase.md 35362 -> 36498 (+1136)
- regenerated via npm run size:baseline (no hand-picked numbers); growth is the #1278 deterministic-locate + descriptor-capture prose

- MD-01/LW-01: narrow projected scalars to primitives + String()-coerce, so a
  numeric-looking check_target (parseMustHavesBlock coerces ^\d+$ to number)
  reconstructs as a string and locates instead of silently un-locating; no
  as-string type-lie, satisfies no-base-to-string.
- LW-02: attach rule only for the lint-rule kind (drop a stray node-test rule).
- LW-03: document the optional check_* keys in the reference Output schema.
RED->GREEN tests added in prohibition-enforcement.test.cjs.

* chore(1278): set changeset pr to 1301

* test(1278): add fast-check property for the check-descriptor round-trip + fail-closed (trek-e review)

RULESET.TESTS.property-based-testing: the projectProhibitions -> render ->
parseMustHavesBlock -> descriptorFromProjection chain is a bijective/transformation
contract. Adds 2 fc properties to tests/probe-core.property.test.cjs (no new file;
ratchet stays at 2 for probe-core):
- well-formed descriptors survive the round-trip across the full string domain
  incl. the numeric-coercion case (target/rule reconstruct as strings);
- under-specified/invalid descriptors (absent / target-less / rule-less /
  unknown-kind) are always fail-closed (never green, flagged, unlocated).
Stability is asserted at the descriptorFromProjection layer (the raw parse step is
intentionally lossy for numeric scalars; the shared parser is unchanged).

2af7630642 fix(1259-01): make real runner cross-platform/version portable (CI ubuntu-24 + windows-24)
CI failed on node 24 + Windows in the real-runner E2E tests — real portability
bugs in the shipping runner, not test flakiness:

- node 24 names a zero-test file's TAP entry by ABSOLUTE path (node 22 used the
  basename), so the exact-string vacuity discriminator misfired -> empty file
  falsely greened. Now compares BASENAMES (separator-agnostic) -> robust across
  OS + node version. Verified: empty file is non-green under node 24 locally.
- the lint-rule runner spawned 'npx', which execFileSync can't launch on Windows
  (and failed fast on ubuntu-24). Now resolves the project's eslint CLI via
  eslint/package.json and runs 'node <cli>' through process.execPath (portable;
  no shell -> no injection). eslint absent -> fail-closed.
- node-test also spawns via process.execPath, not bare 'node'.

Also folds in round-3 WR-01: the probe-core inline comments still said
enforcement was 'deferred to a follow-up PR' — corrected (landed in #1259).
Strengthened the isNonVacuousNodeTestPass unit test to pin the basename clause
(absolute-path target). Verified 71/71 green under BOTH node 22 and node 24.

395fb519e7 feat(spec-phase): prohibition probe — surface "must-NOT" constraints (#644) (#1149)
Adds the spec-time prohibition probe (spec-phase Step 5.6) — the second adapter of the probe-core resolution model. Surfaces unwritten must-NOT constraints as negative SPEC acceptance criteria with test/judgment verification tiers; fail-closed at verify time. Per ADR-550. Closes #644.

3e836fef0d feat(spec-phase): spec-completeness edge-probe (#550) (#584)
* feat(spec-phase): spec-completeness edge-probe (#550) — relocated to gsd-core/

Rebased onto current next and relocated the whole feature from get-shit-done/ to
gsd-core/ per #615 (trek-e re-review #4, option 1). The artifact now builds to
gsd-core/bin/lib/edge-probe.cjs; all hard-coded path strings (tests, workflow
@-refs, run-tests.cjs sentinel, eslint ADR-457 ignore, .gitignore) updated.
Content conflicts in .gitignore / eslint.config.mjs / run-tests.cjs resolved.

Feature: Step 5.5 edge-completeness probe walks each SPEC requirement against a
closed 8-category edge taxonomy, proposes applicable candidate edges, and resolves
each (covered/dismissed/backstop/unresolved). covered/backstop criteria are lifted
by plan-phase into must_haves.truths, extending the goal-backward verifier's reach
to boundary edges no requirement was written for. Engine authored as strict TS
(src/edge-probe.cts, ADR-457), compiled to the gitignored gsd-core/bin/lib/edge-probe.cjs.

Folds in every prior review round on PR #584:
- RR-01..03: plan-phase resolves the phase *-SPEC.md and injects {SPEC_PATH} into the
  planner; must_haves<->Edge-Coverage quality_gate; held-out planner-contract test.
- RR-04/11: Step 5.5 invokes the compiled engine at runtime (npm --prefix-pinned,
  source-checkout-gated build fallback) instead of LLM re-derivation; the engine
  capture is exit-checked and the report JSON-validated before use (fail closed).
- RR-05..10: all six fixtures embedded + count-equality; backstop/covered require a
  resolution; Array.isArray(shapes); duplicate-resolution rejection; CLI JSON exit(2);
  per-artifact build sentinel.
- Authored-shape validation: invalid (non-empty) shapes fail closed (VALID_SHAPES).
- Adversarial-review hardening: orphan/typo resolution rejection, requirement input
  validation (id/text/shapes, duplicate id, non-array), zero-applicable guard.

Full suite 0 failures; npm run lint 0 errors; edge-probe suite 72/72.

* test(#550): RED — status×verification re-cut + probe-core engine specs

Re-cut the edge-probe resolution model onto two orthogonal axes per
ADR-550 Decision 7 (trek-e #644 comments 2026-06-03 14:36 + 14:44):

  status: resolved | dismissed | unresolved   (lifecycle, shared)
  verification: explicit | backstop | null     (only when resolved)

- tests/probe-core.test.cjs (new): behavioral specs for the generic engine
  to be extracted — validateResolution(r, validators), validateRequirement,
  analyzeCoverage(items, resolutions?, validators), byVerification rollup,
  runProbeCli I/O scaffold (injected-io unit tests).
- tests/edge-probe.test.cjs: covered→{resolved,explicit}, backstop→
  {resolved,backstop}; coverage gains byVerification.{explicit,backstop};
  proposeEdges items gain verification:null.
- 6 fixtures re-genned + re-embedded in edge-probe.md; coverage.resolved
  COUNT preserved on every fixture (closed set = resolved+dismissed; doc
  line: 'adjacency=covered + ordering=dismissed' -> 2). edge-probe.md prose
  rewritten to the two-axis model.

Fails as expected: probe-core.cjs has no source yet; edge-probe still
emits the old covered/backstop enum (27/61 edge specs red).

* feat(#550): extract probe-core seam + refactor edge-probe onto it (ADR-550 D7)

Extract the generic resolution model into src/probe-core.cts (the shared
seam the prohibition probe #644 is born on) and refactor edge-probe.cts
into its first adapter.

probe-core owns (probe-agnostic):
- the status×verification re-cut: status: resolved|dismissed|unresolved ×
  verification: <probe-defined>|null
- validateResolution(r, validators) / validateRequirement (generic id+text)
- analyzeCoverage(items, resolutions?, validators) over ALREADY-PROPOSED
  items[] (core never assumes propose is deterministic — edge resolves via
  LLM, #644 proposes via LLM), with merge / dup-reject / orphan-reject
- byVerification rollup; coverage.resolved = closed set (resolved+dismissed),
  count-preserved from the pre-re-cut engine
- runProbeCli I/O scaffold (injected io; one bin per probe)
- hybrid typing: generic params + injected runtime validators
  {categories, verification, requiredFieldsByVerification} (ADR-550 #5)

edge-probe keeps ONLY the edge cluster: Shape/SHAPE_CUES/VALID_SHAPES/
classifyShape/TAXONOMY/applicableCategories/proposeEdges + EDGE_VALIDATORS
{explicit,backstop}; delegates merge/rollup/CLI to probe-core. Every shipped
#584 guarantee preserved (fail-closed shapes, orphan/dup rejection, input
validation, CLI exit 2). 104/104 edge+probe-core+docs+contract specs green.

* chore(#550): register probe-core.cjs artifact in ledgers + inventory

New gitignored build artifact gsd-core/bin/lib/probe-core.cjs (compiled
from src/probe-core.cts) needs registering in every artifact ledger:

- .gitignore + eslint.config.mjs ADR-457 ignore: lint the .cts source,
  never the emitted .cjs.
- scripts/run-tests.cjs per-artifact build sentinel: build if probe-core.cjs
  is missing on a clean checkout.
- docs/INVENTORY.md: CLI Modules 83 -> 84, new probe-core.cjs row, and the
  edge-probe.cjs row updated to reflect it is now the first probe-core adapter.
- docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json: regenerated (gen-inventory-manifest.cjs --write).

probe-core.test.cjs is a single test file (under the 2-file cap), so no
lint-test-file-count allowlist entry is needed.

* docs(adr-550): spec-phase probe pattern + prohibition contract [Accepted]

trek-e's final ADR-550 body, verbatim (open-gsd/gsd-core#644 comment
2026-06-03T15:23Z), Accepted by both maintainer and #550 author. Lands on
PR #584 alongside the probe-core extraction (Decision 7) it governs, so the
contract and its first implementation arrive together.

Decisions: probe packaging (3 layers); recall->precision protocol;
prohibition home = SPEC acceptance criteria + optional must_haves.prohibitions:
(truths untouched, no polarity); tiered verification test|judgment
(judgment = mode-dependent soft-gate-with-flags, never silent pass / never
hard-halt); CI tests the contract not the classifier; secure-phase ownership
seam; and Decision 7 — probe-core seam + status×verification re-cut (7a-7e),
which this PR implements.

* feat(#550): fail-closed probe-core across full status×verification + runProbeCli structural guard

Re-review #5 (trek-e) seam-hardening on the generic probe-core contract #644 inherits:

- validateResolution now enforces the 'verification is null unless resolved'
  invariant for EVERY status (not just resolved): a dismissed/unresolved
  resolution carrying a verification tier is rejected instead of merging verbatim.
- An unresolved resolution carrying a resolution/reason payload is rejected
  (was silently dropped into the unresolved count).
- runProbeCli structurally validates the report an adapter returns before writing
  it (was: any malformed object stringified as green output) — fails closed → exit 2.
- coverage.resolved kept count-preserved (closed set) per the blessed migration
  contract; a new test locks that an all-dismissed run is NOT affirmatively covered
  (byVerification is the honest gate).

Tests: probe-core 37/37; full edge-probe suite 113/113; full suite 1816/1816; lint 0.

* docs(adr-550): annotate Decision 5 #584/#644 scope + correct 7a coverage.resolved semantics

Re-review #5 (trek-e) clarity edits:

- Decision 5: annotate that only contract item (a) ships on #584 (the edge
  adapter's parse+validate test); (b)–(d) are #644 scope, matching Consequences.
- Decision 7a: correct the 'coverage.resolved is preserved (status === resolved)'
  parenthetical — the blessed/implemented semantics are count-preserved = the
  CLOSED set (resolved + dismissed = applicable − unresolved), with byVerification
  carrying the per-tier resolved-status breakdown. The old parenthetical
  contradicted the shipped count.

* test(#550): cover runProbeCli structural-guard numeric-count branch

Second-pass coverage audit found the 'coverage object present but counts
non-numeric' branch of isValidReport (built probe-core.cjs:60-61) unexercised —
the {nope:true} malformed test fails earlier at the items[] check. Add a report
with well-formed items[] + a coverage object carrying non-numeric counts so the
numeric branch is hit. No source change; closes the line gap.

* fix(#550): reject edge requirement with missing/empty text when no shapes override (M2)

The edge adapter's `text` is the classification signal and a required field, but
core `validateRequirement` left it optional, so a `{ id }` requirement classified to
zero shapes -> zero edges -> was silently DROPPED from coverage with no signal -- the
exact fail-open this feature exists to eliminate. Reject missing/empty text unless an
authored `shapes` override (incl. `[]`) opts out of prose classification.

* fix(#550): validate verbatim items in analyzeCoverage shared seam (m1)

A proposed item with no matching author resolution is rolled up VERBATIM, but its own
status/fields were never validated -- an item carrying an out-of-enum status (the dropped
"covered") or `dismissed` without a reason would be counted closed. The edge adapter only
proposes `unresolved` items, but the prohibition adapter (#644) proposes LLM-generated
items that arrive populated. An Item is structurally a superset of a Resolution, so reuse
validateResolution to fail closed. ADR-550 Decision 5 hardens this shared seam.

* fix(#550): move edge-coverage lift instruction to runtime planner surface (M1)

templates/planner-subagent-prompt.md is loaded by nothing at runtime (no @-import in
agents/gsd-planner.md; plan-phase.md spawns the planner from its own inline
<planning_context>), so the precise covered/backstop -> must_haves.truths lift instruction
this PR added there never reached the planner -- and the RR-02 contract test asserted it in
that dead file, giving false green. Move the instruction into plan-phase.md's runtime
<downstream_consumer> block (where the rest of the wire already lives), revert the dead-template
edit, and retarget RR-02 to the loaded surface with a guard against re-orphaning.

* test(#550): lock machine<->SPEC vocabulary mapping against drift (m2)

The machine contract uses orthogonal status x verification; the SPEC table renders a flat
covered/dismissed/backstop/unresolved. The migration map (ADR-550 Decision 7a) was prose-only
with no test, so the layers could silently drift. The SPEC table is LLM-rendered (no JS
renderer to round-trip), so pin the canonical bijection as code AND ground it in every doc
surface that renders the vocabulary (ADR migration clause, spec.md legend, reference mapping
table) -- a rename or remap now fails the suite.

* docs(#550): add how-to for resolving edge-coverage findings (B1)

Feature shipped reference coverage (FEATURES.md, COMMANDS.md, references/edge-probe.md) but
no how-to -- reference-only does not satisfy the Diataxis docs standard for a user-facing
capability. Add a single-mode how-to (imperative, goal-directed) walking each resolution
state (specify/dismiss/backstop/defer), the soft gate, and --auto, with taxonomy/concepts
linked out to the reference. Register it in the docs/how-to index.

* docs(#550): add Probe Core + Edge Probe glossary entries to CONTEXT.md (N1)

trek-e re-review #7 N1 (Major): adding probe-core/edge-probe as src/*.cts-derived
seam modules (ADR-550 Decision 7) requires CONTEXT.md Domain-terms glossary entries
per the maintainer-enforced new-seam gate. Adds '### Probe Core Module' and
'### Edge Probe Module' with exports, generated source paths, and the ADR-550 seam
contract, placed beside the Research Module feature-seam entries.

* test(#550): add fast-check property suite for probe-core analyzeCoverage (N2)

trek-e re-review #7 N2 (RULESET.TESTS.property-based-testing): analyzeCoverage is a
transformation/rollup module, the class the property-testing predicate covers, and
fast-check is already a dependency with an established *.property.test.cjs pattern.
Adds 5 properties over the algebraic invariants: closed-set identity
(applicable === resolved + unresolved), byVerification sums ≤ resolved, per-tier
recount + resolved-status-only counting, rollup determinism, and stable orphan
rejection. 200 runs/seed 42 via helpers/fast-check-setup.cjs.

* test(#550): align allow-test-rule tokens to canonical runtime-contract-is-the-product (N3)

trek-e re-review #7 N3 (Nit): the // allow-test-rule: tokens (source-text-is-the-product,
docs-parity) differed from CONTEXT.md's canonical exemption category
'runtime-contract-is-the-product' (RULESET.TESTS.no-source-grep.exemption, CONTEXT.md:240).
All three tests assert deployed runtime-contract surfaces (spec-phase.md Step 5.5, the
plan-phase.md planner prompt, the rendered reference/SPEC/ADR vocabulary), so the canonical
category fits; each now carries a one-line justification per the ruleset format. Free-text
reason — lint behavior unchanged.

* test(#550): re-baseline plan-phase + spec-phase byte sizes for edge-probe

Rebased onto next (e4f0910d), which replaced the line-based tier-max
size ratchet (#597) with the byte-based per-file baseline guard (#1074).
The edge-probe feature legitimately grows two workflows:

  - spec-phase.md  15131 -> 23094 (+7963): Step 5.5 Edge-Completeness Probe
  - plan-phase.md  93135 -> 94253 (+1118): covered/backstop edge lift into
    must_haves.truths (the live <downstream_consumer> block)

Both remain under their tier hard caps (plan-phase XL 98304, ~4KB
headroom; spec-phase DEFAULT 40960). Growth is real inline workflow
content the feature requires at that step — not eager @-import proxy
gaming. Drops the obsolete line-based XL_BUDGET 93000->94000 bump
(superseded by the byte baseline) via rebase.

* chore(#550): reconcile INVENTORY headline counts after rebase onto next

Rebase onto current next dropped the prior reconcile commit (stale counts
refs 68 / CLI 107). Current next + the edge-probe additions yield:
  - References (68 -> 69 shipped): + gsd-core/references/edge-probe.md
  - CLI Modules (107 -> 109 shipped): + edge-probe.cjs + probe-core.cjs

Rows for all three already present; only the headline counts were stale.
Caught by tests/inventory-counts.test.cjs (CI ubuntu-24 leg).
