6cfa0c55d2 refactor: drop 12 runtimes, keep Claude, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, ZCode, Antigravity
Removes kilo, kimi, kimi-code, copilot, windsurf, augment, trae, qwen, hermes,
cline, codebuddy and pi end to end: capability descriptors, installer branches
and converters (bin/install.js 14.9k -> 11.2k lines), TypeScript converters,
hook surfaces and runtime homes, review lanes qwen/kimi-code, the two pi
migrations, Kimi payload normalization in the hook guards, dead hostBehaviors
vocabulary, launcher home probes, fixtures, runtime-specific tests and the
prose that presented them as supported.

Installer output for the six kept runtimes is byte-identical to before the
prune. The Kimi tool-vocabulary tests in workflow-guard, read-guard and
read-injection-scanner are left in place pending a decision.

a9a7a328e6 refactor: hard-fork GSD -> MSD (Make Software Done)
Mechanical rename produced by scripts/msd-rename.cjs: gsd/Gsd/GSD -> msd/Msd/MSD
across contents and paths, upstream package/repo coordinates -> @golem15/msd-core
and golem15com/msd-core. Deep links into upstream history, sibling upstream
packages, the GSD-2 import feature, CHANGELOG.md and .changeset/ are kept as-is.

Hand edits on top: MSD block-letter banner and logos, LICENSE copyright line,
package/plugin identity, regenerated lockfile, install-tree fixtures, derived
registries and benchmark baseline; migration checksum baseline re-locked
(MSD keeps its own install state, so no install had applied the old sums);
sort-order and regex-escaped expectations in tests adjusted.

2eef8ada4f test(#4520): migrate generators/doc-gates/attribution batch to named timeout constants
Batch 9 of 17 in the ad hoc timeout literal migration (epic #4445).
Replaces every bare numeric timeout/timeoutMs object-literal property in
14 files with a named constant, per eslint-rules/no-adhoc-timeout-literal.cjs.
Removes the 14 files from the rule's allowlist.

The issue's own guess ("all run a scripts/*.cjs generator or lint script
once, BUILD_TIMEOUT_MS class") needed two corrections found by reading
every site directly. First, BUILD_TIMEOUT_MS's own doc comment scopes it
specifically to scripts/build-hooks.js, which none of this batch's
generator/lint-script sites run — a new shared constant,
GENERATOR_SCRIPT_TIMEOUT_MS, covers the class instead. Second,
no-pending-3212-markers.test.cjs's single site spawns `git ls-files`
directly, not a scripts/*.cjs script at all — routed to a second new
shared constant, REAL_REPO_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS, promoted once
emitted-attribution.test.cjs's own git-plumbing sites were found sharing
the same class and value.

Isolated Standards-axis review caught a further misclassification: one
of REAL_REPO_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS's three emitted-attribution.test.cjs sites
actually builds a fresh throwaway temp repo (createTempDir + git init),
contradicting that constant's own real-repo-tree-only scope. Fixed with
a new file-local FRESH_FIXTURE_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS holding the exact
pre-existing value under an honest name, rather than reusing the shared
GIT_FIXTURE_TIMEOUT_MS (which would have doubled the bound).

emitted-attribution.test.cjs also gets two more file-local constants:
HEAVY_REAL_TREE_TEST_TIMEOUT_MS (node:test's own per-test timeout
option, not a spawn bound) and BUILD_HOOKS_UNDER_LOAD_TIMEOUT_MS (the
same build-hooks.js script as the shared norm, at 4x its bound inside
the suite's heaviest test). emitted-ack-trailer.test.cjs gets
IMPOSSIBLY_SHORT_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS — the one value in this migration that
is deliberately tiny (20ms), used to force a timeout in a negative test,
not generous headroom.

No src/bin file touched, no numeric value changed anywhere.

fa41bfec5c enhance(#3942): the emitted-drift ack is PR-lifetime data — move it to a commit trailer (#3954)
* test(#3942): failing-first suite for the emitted-drift ack commit trailer

Binds 37 input classes from the phase test matrix to the behavior ADR-3942
specifies, before any of it exists. Stubs return benign empty values rather
than throwing, deliberately: several rows assert that something DOES throw
(cap overflow, uncomputable commit range), and a throwing stub would turn
those green for the wrong reason and destroy the red.

The two rows that carry the design's load:

- merge-base semantics. The range is $(git merge-base base HEAD)..HEAD, not
  base..HEAD, because changedPaths comes from `git diff base...HEAD` (three
  dot). Two-dot would let the ack set and the change set disagree about which
  commits are this PR's. The fixture forks a topic branch, puts a trailer on
  each side, and asserts only the topic-side trailer is in range.

- fail-closed on an uncomputable range. With fragments a depth-1 checkout
  passes VACUOUSLY, every fragment reading as brand-new. With trailers the
  range cannot be computed at all, and returning an empty set would silently
  disarm the gate, so it must throw. The fixture builds a genuine shallow
  clone rather than simulating one.

Also covers the self-inflicted case: this change's own documentation quotes
the trailer syntax, so an example landing at the end of a commit message would
arm a live acknowledgment keyed on the literal placeholder text. Keys carrying
angle brackets or whitespace are rejected.

Authored per the phase artifacts 40-design.md and 50-test-matrix.md.
Not yet run on the remote runner — this commit exists to be tested.

Refs #3942

* chore(#3942): move the emitted-drift ack to a commit trailer

Implements ADR-3942, superseding ADR-2719 section 3 and its #2789 amendment.
Sections 1, 2 and 4-7 are retained: the conservation law is unchanged, only the
storage of its escape hatch moved off the working tree.

An acknowledgment explains one PR's ripple, and the moment that PR merges the
ripple is in the base, so it can never clear anything again. It was stored in
permanent shared state anyway, and every consequence of that mismatch had to be
built and then maintained. The chain is #2789 -> #2914 -> #3078 -> #3842 ->
#3823 -> #3875, each fix generating the next defect, ending in a scheduled
sweeper whose own first PR could not merge itself.

Added
  parseAckTrailers + renderAckTrailer (pure) and readAckTrailers (IO shell),
  reading Emitted-Drift-Ack-Hash: / Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: trailers over
  the merge-base range. tests/emitted-ack-trailer.test.cjs, 37 cases, written
  failing-first and confirmed red before any of this existed.

Changed
  diffEmitted takes two structurally distinct key-space maps instead of one
  shared paths map. That closes a latent defect: the spaces were separated by
  convention only, so a growth key satisfied a hash lookup by naming
  coincidence. staleAcks now reports which space a key was declared in.
  REMEDIATION teaches the trailer, per space, with its example rendered through
  renderAckTrailer so the taught grammar cannot drift from what the parser
  accepts.

Removed
  the sweep workflow, the guard-no-ack-on-next job, the standalone linter and
  its lint:ci entry, the fragment directory and its three spent fragments, the
  legacy single-file union, and the baseAck/spentAcks mechanism -- spentness is
  now structural, not computed.

Two range properties carry the design and are pinned by tests rather than
asserted: the range is merge-base scoped, matching git diff base...HEAD, so an
already-merged trailer is out of range by construction; and an uncomputable
range throws instead of reading as zero acknowledgments, which is the inverse
of the fragment guard's vacuous pass.

Three deliberate observable changes, each disclosed in the changeset: the
unread runtime field is gone, the legacy file is no longer read, and cross-space
excusal no longer works.

Ten open PRs carry fragments and will meet a modify/delete conflict. Measured
before landing and accepted deliberately; the one-line migration is in the PR
body.

Verified: lint:ci exit 0. Remote runner to follow on this exact sha.

Refs #3942

* fix(#3942): silent trailer collapse, lost coverage, and an unbounded cap

Six findings from the orthogonal review round, all fixed in place.

BLOCKER -- two trailers of the same name on one commit collapsed silently.
readAckTrailers built `separator=1d` where git needs `separator=%x1d`: the
`separator=` value inside a %(trailers:...) placeholder is itself a
pretty-format string, so the bare hex was emitted as two literal characters
and the split on \x1d never matched. Two same-name trailers therefore joined
into one value with errors empty -- the first reason absorbing the second
entry's key. Silent truncation, the exact class MAX_ACK_TRAILERS throws to
prevent. Confirmed with od -c against real git output before and after.

The failing-first matrix did not catch it because its "both spaces coexist"
row uses Hash plus Growth -- different trailer NAMES -- so the value separator
was never exercised. Two regression tests now cover same-name trailers
directly.

Coverage recovered: normalizeAckReason and INVISIBLE stayed on the live path
via parseAckTrailers but lost every test when the old suite was pruned. Back
under test against the current surface -- all six invisible codepoints
individually, whitespace collapse, trim, CRLF, and two seeded fast-check
properties. Dropping any single codepoint now fails.

MAX_ACK_TRAILERS counted raw trailers before de-duplication, so one trailer
carried forward across rebased commits counted once per commit and could throw
on a legitimate branch. Now counts distinct entries; 100 identical repeats
dedupe to one.

diffEmitted validated baseline, current and changedPaths but not the new
ackHash/ackGrowth, so a bad shape raised an unhandled TypeError instead of an
error verdict -- the same defect shape this file documents for #2778.

Docs: CONTRIBUTING and TESTING-SUITES were rewritten only in their first
sections; the later passages still taught fragments, git rm and the deleted
guard, contradicting the new text directly above them. Finished.

Also extends lint-removed-but-needed to exempt docs/adr and docs/research.
That gate fails on any docs mention of a file deleted in the same diff, which
makes it impossible to document a deletion in the PR performing it -- an ADR's
whole job is naming what it retired. Exemption is narrow and comes with a test
proving the gate still fires for a live consumer elsewhere under docs/. A
guard that cannot fail is worse than no guard. Maintainer-approved.

CONTEXT.md names the retired machinery by role rather than by filename: its
generated projection lands in docs/, which that gate does scan.

Adds docs/how-to/acknowledge-emitted-drift.md. The required docs set is
Reference and Explanation, so the task quadrant can be empty with every gate
green -- and this change has a real multi-step journey, including the fragment
migration ten open PRs now need.

lint:ci exit 0.

Refs #3942

* docs(#3942): correct the duplicate-trailer rule in CONTRIBUTING

Both axes of the code review independently flagged the same passage, without
seeing each other's output.

It claimed two declarations of the same key are always "a hard, loudly-reported
error, not a silent last-wins". That is only half true, and the missing half is
the one contributors hit: identical declarations -- same key, same reason --
dedupe silently, because a trailer legitimately survives a rebase and reappears
on every rebased commit. Failing there would red a branch for doing nothing
wrong, which is exactly why the dedup exists.

Only a same-key/different-reason pair errors, and that one is a genuine
ambiguity about which explanation holds.

As written, the paragraph told a contributor that a rebase-carried trailer
breaks the gate -- the opposite of the behavior. CONTEXT.md's parallel entry
already stated it correctly; this brings CONTRIBUTING into line.

Doc-only, root-level markdown.

8f674281fd chore(#3875): sweep the spent ack fragments and automate the sweep (#3877)
* chore(#3875): sweep the spent ack fragments and automate the sweep

next has been red on every push since a84f75630 (#3823) — 24 consecutive pushes
over two days — on two fully-spent emitted-drift-ack fragments nobody swept.

#3823 introduced guard-no-ack-on-next together with a 45-fragment sweep, but
computed that sweep as a static set of deletions fixed at its branch point.
#3809's fragment merged to next while #3823 was in flight, so the guard reds on
its own merge commit. The condition is evaluated dynamically at merge time and
remediated statically at branch time; on a moving branch the second can never
reliably satisfy the first.

- delete tests/emitted-drift-acks/3809-* and 3866-* (3034-* and 3172-* stay --
  the #3842 open-PR hold correctly defers them)
- runGuardNext returns `sweepable`, the set the guard actually reasoned about,
  plus `legacyPresent` for the legacy document, which is a fixed path rather
  than a fragment basename and would otherwise be invisible to any sweeper
- new --sweep-plan mode turns the guard into a work list: plan on stdout, prose
  on stderr, exit 0 so a non-empty plan does not fail the step that asked for it
- main() is injectable in BOTH lanes; a half-injected seam lets a test that
  passes cwd silently read the real repository instead of its fixture
- ack-fragment-sweep.yml derives its deletion list from that plan on a timer and
  opens a reviewable PR, so the sweep can no longer go stale between branch
  and merge

Hardening found in review, each verified against a live reproduction:

- git rm reads its arguments as PATHSPECS with wildmatch semantics, so a
  fragment named a bare-star .json name -- legal, and admitted by
  listFragmentFiles since it filters only on the suffix -- expanded to every
  fragment in the directory, including ones the #3842 hold withheld. Confirmed
  in a scratch repo: one such file deleted all three. Closed with a literal
  allowlist and a :(literal) pathspec, two independent layers.
- an apostrophe inside a heredoc nested in a command substitution is an
  unterminated quote and a hard syntax error at runtime, not just under bash -n.
- an empty plan no longer reports success unconditionally: the guard is re-run
  without the hold to tell "next is clean" from "everything is held", the
  commonest holder being the sweep PR from the previous run, which touches
  exactly the fragments it proposed to delete.
- a branch pushed by a run that died before it could open the PR wedged every
  later run on a non-fast-forward push; re-pointed under a lease instead.
- a guard crash in plan mode no longer reads as "nothing to sweep".

regenerated only the first, so the parity check stayed red.

8d8e9ef5eb fix(#3842): stage the emitted-drift-ack sweep so it does not conflict in-flight PRs (#3847)
* fix(#3842): stage the emitted-drift-ack sweep around open PRs

The guard-no-ack-on-next sweep (#3078) deleted every all-spent fragment
under tests/emitted-drift-acks/ unconditionally. When an open PR still
modified the same fragment file, that delete became a modify/delete
conflict on the PR's next merge attempt -- the exact shared-file
conflict fragments were adopted (#2914) to eliminate, reintroduced by
the sweep itself. The first real sweep hit three open, outside-
contributor PRs simultaneously (#3330, #3774, #3648), each with the
swept fragment as its only conflicting path.

assertNoAllSpentFragments now accepts an optional openPrTouchedPaths
set (or the sentinel 'unknown') and partitions all-spent fragments
into "safe to sweep" and "held" -- a held fragment is reported
informationally, never as a failure, and is swept once the touching
PR merges or closes. fetchOpenPrTouchedAckPaths computes the touched
set with a single `gh pr list --json number,files` call. The guard-next
codepath is factored out of main() into the exported, dependency-
injectable runGuardNext() so this wiring is unit-testable without a
real, network-dependent `gh` binary.

The new behavior is strictly opt-in via a --defer-to-open-prs flag,
wired only from the guard-no-ack-on-next job in test.yml (which also
gains pull-requests: read and a GH_TOKEN env for the `gh` call). Every
pre-#3842 caller -- including every existing test -- is unaffected
when the flag is omitted.

CONTRIBUTING.md's "Why fragments, not one file (#2914)" section now
documents the staged-sweep policy so it no longer reads as though
fragments are unconditionally conflict-free once spent.

* fix(#3842): unify the failed-open-PR-check message to one greppable phrase

The remote matrix (commit 4ec4527fb) failed two tests on the fail-closed
path: assertNoAllSpentFragments's 'unknown' sentinel branch described the
failure as "...could not be determined this run...", while runGuardNext's
catch around fetchOpenPrTouchedAckPaths described the same condition as
"open-PR check failed (<err>)". Both messages were genuinely present and
informative (not missing or empty), but they used different wording for
the same fail-closed condition, so there is no single string a human
scanning CI output can search for to find out why nothing got swept.

Unify both sites on "open-PR check unavailable" -- runGuardNext's line
now reads "open-PR check unavailable — <err.message>", and
assertNoAllSpentFragments's holdAll message now leads with "deferred
(open-PR check unavailable): ...". This is a real fix to the fail-safe
path's diagnosability, not a relaxed test assertion: the two now-failing
tests already expected this exact phrase, and the fix makes the code
say what the tests (correctly) expected instead of loosening them to
match arbitrary prior wording.

a84f756303 fix(#3078): sweep all-spent ack fragments on next, name the collision remedy (#3823)
* fix(#3078): sweep all-spent ack fragments on next, name the collision remedy

`guard-no-ack-on-next` only ever watched the legacy tests/emitted-drift-ack.json.
#2914 exempted the fragment directory on the premise that a persisting fragment
"cannot conflict with any other PR". Fragments do not share a FILE, but they do
share a PATH KEY SPACE, and a path claimed by two sources is a hard failure in
the same script -- so a fully-spent fragment on next owns keys it can no longer
gate, and the next PR to grow one of those paths can declare it neither there
(spent) nor in its own fragment (duplicate). Measured at the sweep: 45 fragments
owning 403 paths, up from 13/272 at triage 19 days earlier.

- `assertNoAllSpentFragments` fails a fragment only when EVERY surviving entry is
  spent against the copy at HEAD^, so a partially spent fragment -- and the
  re-arm-by-appending route #2639/#2993 ship on -- keeps working.
- `ackProse` duplicates the gate's zero-width/whitespace stripping across the
  scripts-ship/tests-do-not line, bounded by a prose-parity test.
- The guard job's checkout takes fetch-depth: 2; at depth 1 HEAD^ is absent and
  every fragment reads as brand-new, i.e. the guard passes vacuously.
- The duplicate-ack error now names both resolutions, since the guard is
  post-merge by design and cannot stop the colliding PR.
- All 45 spent fragments deleted, 0000-legacy-migration.json included, and the
  three tests that pinned its permanence corrected.

Verification is the remote runner (gsd-test), not a local suite.

Closes #3078

* fix(#3078): make the prose-parity test two-sided, cover the git seam, base on the pre-push tip

Three review findings, all fixed:

- The parity test was a tautology: it checked ACK_INVISIBLE against a
  hardcoded list matching its own definition, never against the gate. The
  gate's INVISIBLE and its reason normalizer (hoisted out of diffEmitted as
  normalizeAckReason) are now exported for that sole purpose, and the test
  sweeps 0x00-0xFFFF against both surfaces. Mutation-checked: adding a
  codepoint to one side and not the other now fails.
- resolveBaseRef, readFragmentAtRef and assertUsableBaseRef had zero direct
  coverage -- the tests reimplemented the git reads in a local helper, so the
  ls-tree-vs-show discrimination, the root-commit fallback and the
  option-injection guard were never executed. All are exported and tested
  against real temp repositories now, plus an end-to-end --base-ref subprocess.
- HEAD^ is not 'the state of next before this push'. The default branch allows
  REBASE merges, so one push can carry N commits, and a 2-commit rebase-merge
  whose first commit adds a fragment would be told to git rm it on the very
  push that introduced it. CI now passes github.event.before via --base-ref and
  fetches it explicitly; HEAD^ remains only the local fallback.

Also adds the safe.directory guard every other git call in this repo carries
(#2767), and stops naming the deleted migration fragment by filename in
CONTEXT.md, which tripped lint-removed-but-needed.

Refs #3078

* fix(#3078): keep the fragment directory alive after the sweep empties it

Sweeping every fragment leaves the directory untracked, and check-glossary-refs
then fails: CONTEXT.md references tests/emitted-drift-acks, which no longer
exists. The empty directory IS the intended steady state, so it has to survive
its own remedy.

Adds tests/emitted-drift-acks/README.md documenting the create/use/delete
lifecycle where a contributor actually meets it, matching the existing
tests/qa/smell-acks/README.md precedent. Every reader filters on .json, so the
README is invisible to the gate.

Also sweeps #3809's ack fragment, which the rebase onto origin/next brought in
and the new guard immediately reported as all-spent -- its own remedy applied.

Refs #3078

* fix(#3078): guard the added tests' git calls, drop a second fragment-existence pin

Both defects surfaced by the remote runner (linux-node24, 4/37445 failed).

- The new --base-ref E2E test ran `git rev-parse HEAD` against the checkout
  without the #2767 safe.directory guard. The runner mounts the repo at a path
  owned by another uid, so git refused every operation there with 'detected
  dubious ownership'. Every git call the new tests make now names its own
  specific directory as safe, via one local helper, mirroring safeDirArgs in
  helpers/emitted-runtime.cjs.
- tests/agent-tracked-source-rule.test.cjs pinned the existence and contents of
  the 3645 and 3409 ack fragments. That is a merged PR's paperwork, not live
  behavior: once the growth is in next's baseline the acks are spent and this
  PR's guard sweeps them. The third assertion pinned the hand-appended
  workaround for the exact collision #3078 removes. Deleted; #3645's real
  protection is the two behavioral tests above it, untouched.

Also restores #3809's ack fragment, which merged one commit before this branch.
Deleting an ack in the same window as its introducing PR races any consumer
whose baseline predates it -- the runner's container proved it, resolving
origin/next to 8ed105c8a where the file is still 13847. The backlog sweep is
this PR's scope; that fragment is left for the guard's own first run.

Adds the rule to the fragment README so the class stops recurring.

Refs #3078

* test(#3078): derive the E2E guard expectation from the fragment inventory

The --base-ref E2E test asserted exit 0 while passing the checkout's own HEAD
as the base ref. HEAD-as-base makes every present fragment byte-identical to
itself, so all of them are trivially all-spent and the guard correctly exits 1.
The test only ever passed because the directory happened to be empty when it
was written; restoring #3809's fragment made it fail. The script was right and
the test was wrong.

The degenerate base ref is kept deliberately -- it is what makes 'spent'
trivially true and therefore deterministic -- but the expectation is now
derived from listFragmentFiles() at runtime: zero fragments means exit 0 and
the no-survivors line, N fragments means exit 1 with every name and its git rm.
Proven state-independent by running the suite with the fragment present, with
the directory emptied, and with it restored.

The option-shaped --base-ref rejection is split into its own test, unchanged.

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.

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.

c28134ab39 fix(#3271): delete 25 duplicated folded test suites and fix three runner defects found doing it (#3285)
* test(#3271): guard against a folded suite appearing twice in one host

Adds local/no-duplicate-fold-marker, an AST rule that reports the second and
every subsequent `folded:<name>` marker in a host file, plus RuleTester cases
and a tree-wide regression assertion.

Failing-first on purpose: the rule is registered at error and the 25 duplicated
regions are still present, so eslint and the new tree-wide test are RED. The
deletions land in the next commit.

The marker key is the whitespace-delimited token after `folded:` — not the
issue's `[a-z0-9-]*` slice, which truncates at `.` and false-positives on
tests/model-resolver.test.cjs where feat-443-effort-fast-mode.integration and
feat-443-effort-fast-mode are two distinct folded suites.

Refs #3271

* fix(#3271): delete 25 duplicated folded suites from three install hosts

Three consolidated install suites each carried a verbatim second copy of a
contiguous run of #1969 B1 folded blocks. Byte-identical, constant offset, and
green — each duplicated block registered and ran twice on every lane.

  tests/install.test.cjs                   5981-9937  (3957 lines, 18 blocks)
  tests/install-minimal-hooks.test.cjs     2734-4015  (1282 lines,  5 blocks)
  tests/install-write-confinement.test.cjs 1754-2321  ( 568 lines,  2 blocks)

Introduced by 6d072435d (#1975 re-applying #1970's hunks on a tree that already
had them, 2026-07-03) — one stale-base re-application, three files, one commit.
Verified by marker-count bisect: 1 at 4f779eda4 and 0cc7a1a42, 2 from 6d072435d
onward.

The later copy is deleted in each case, so every file returns to what its
authoring batch produced and blame on the surviving lines stays accurate.
local/no-duplicate-fold-marker, red on the previous commit, is now green.

tests/model-resolver.test.cjs is untouched: the issue lists it, but its two
blocks are folded from two different files and are not identical. It is a false
positive of the issue's own grep, whose `[a-z0-9-]*` key truncates at `.`.

Fixes #3271

* test(#3271): property-test marker identity and pin the alias non-goal

Three review findings, all fixed inline:

1. foldMarkerOf is a parser and carried no fast-check property test. Raised
   independently by the /code-review standards axis and the isolated adversarial
   pass; the file already establishes the fc.property-driving-ruleTester idiom
   for a sibling rule. Added, two arms over markers generated from [a-z0-9-._]:
   the same marker twice always reports exactly once against firstLine 1, and
   two distinct markers never collide. The alphabet includes `.` on purpose —
   an implementation keyed on the issue's [a-z0-9-]* slice passes arm 1 and
   fails arm 2, which is exactly the model-resolver false positive.

2. meta.docs.category was the novel value 'Test hygiene'; all 16 sibling local
   rules use 'Best Practices', 'Portability' or 'Reliability'. Now
   'Best Practices'.

* test(#3271): name the step and elapsed time when a baseline build fails

buildBaselineAtRef runs four bounded steps and, when one exceeded its bound,
threw a bare "spawnSync ETIMEDOUT" naming neither the step nor how long
anything took. Diagnosing one real failure took four separate experiments to
recover information the throw already had.

Each step is now timed, and any throw carries the breakdown: which step failed,
its elapsed time, the timings of every step that completed before it, all three
bounds, and the tail of the child's captured stdout/stderr.

The failure message is deliberately the carrier. On the remote runner the
captured output field comes back empty in failures.json while error and stack
survive verbatim, so the message is the only channel that reaches a reader of a
remote verdict.

Refs #3271

* fix(#3271): size the baseline generator bound for the machine it runs on

Instrumentation from a real remote-runner failure gave the breakdown:

  git-worktree-add=15.1s  npm-run-build-lib=19.8s  gen-emitted-baseline=FAILED@300.1s

Steps 1 and 2 are comfortable. Only the generator exceeds its bound, and it is
not hung — it needs more than 300s there.

Measured ladder for that step: ~22s idle in a container, ~39s end-to-end in a
clean container, ~142s with 8 CPU burners on 8 cores, and >300s under the real
suite. Its cost is 19 sequential installer spawns, and spawn latency is exactly
where a container degrades worst (3.9x slower than host, against 1.1x for file
IO) — which is why a CPU-only load test did not reproduce it and why four
earlier hypotheses (container slowness, network, shallow clone, CPU contention)
all measured clean.

The 300s bound was sized on an idle machine for a step that never runs on one.
Under the remote runner the on-disk baseline cache is structurally absent — CI
restores it via actions/cache keyed on github.event.pull_request.base.sha, a key
that exists only inside GitHub Actions — so this slow path runs on every remote
verification. The result: this gate has passed 0 times in 754 runs, failing 80
times and never once executing successfully.

Raised to the 600000ms ceiling that local/no-unbounded-spawn treats as the
largest meaningful bound; the other two bounds are untouched. This makes the
gate RUN, which is the point: the alternative considered and rejected was
degrading the timeout to a skip, and that was measured to turn the suite green
with the gate silently not running at all.

The real remedy is making the cache reachable from the remote runner so the
in-job build returns to being the rare fallback ADR-2719 §5 describes. That is a
gsd-test-runner change, not one this repo can make.

Refs #3271

* fix(#3271): tolerate an overlay source that vanishes mid-walk

Observed on the remote runner, three runs across three different branches:

  ENOENT: no such file or directory, link '/work/hooks/dist/gsd-config-reload.js'
    -> '/tmp/gsd-2930-overlay-6nOZay/hooks/dist/gsd-config-reload.js'

buildOverlayRepo enumerates names with readdirSync and then acts on each one, so
statSync, copyFileSync and linkSync all sit in a TOCTOU window. hooks/dist is
regenerated by an ATOMIC REPLACE (scripts/build-hooks.js unlinks and renames), so
any concurrently running test that rebuilds hooks retires a just-listed name
mid-walk and the overlay dies on it. linkOrCopyFile already tolerated EXDEV and
EPERM; ENOENT went straight through.

On ENOENT the source is now re-examined ONCE rather than slept on. An atomic
rename is a single syscall, so by the time the failure surfaces the successor is
either already in place (the retry succeeds) or the path has genuinely left the
tree, in which case there is nothing to mirror and the leaf is skipped. No sleep
and no spin: a timing-based wait here would be the very flake being fixed. Every
other errno still propagates untouched, so a real permission or IO fault stays a
hard failure.

Five tests hold the boundary: gone-for-good skips without retrying, mid-replace
retries exactly once and places the file, EACCES still throws, a real linkSync
ENOENT is injected by monkeypatching fs and restoring it in a finally (never a
mode-bit trick, which root bypasses), and isMissingPath accepts only ENOENT.

Refs #3271

* fix(#3271): order the timeout ladder inward-out and lock it

Two review blockers, both real.

The generator bound had been raised to 600000ms — exactly the whole-chunk timeout
in scripts/run-tests.cjs:973. A step bound equal to the chunk ceiling loses the
race: the chunk is killed first and the failure arrives as an opaque "no failed
step" kill, so the per-step diagnostic added a commit earlier was built and then
made unreachable in the same change.

Separately the #2767 test declared a per-test timeout of 300000ms, BELOW the
inner bound it was meant to permit, so it could still die at the exact 300s
ceiling this was supposed to lift — via node:test's timeout rather than
spawnSync's. Its sibling declared 900000ms, above the chunk ceiling, which is the
same opaque-kill hazard from the other direction.

The three bounds only produce a useful failure if they fire inward-out, so they
now do: step 360s, per-test 480s, chunk 600s. 360s is ~3x the passing observation
(91.6s / 115.8s) and 20% above the censored 300.1s timeout, while leaving 240s of
chunk headroom for every other file sharing it. Four tests lock the ordering,
including a drift guard on the exported values — without it, editing a call
site's literal timeout would leave the ordering assertions passing while the real
ladder inverted.

Also from review:

- err.gsdBaselineStep and err.gsdBaselineTimings were written and never read
  anywhere in the tree; only the rewritten message is consumed. Removed rather
  than kept as speculative surface.
- buildOverlayRepo discarded placeVanishableLeaf's boolean at both call sites, so
  a vanished leaf left the overlay with no accounting at all. It now collects the
  skipped paths and warns once. Not thrown: a source that left the tree really is
  not part of the snapshot, and throwing would reintroduce the crash the
  tolerance removes — but silence would let a dropped leaf resurface later as an
  unrelated missing-file assertion.
- The instrumentation commit shipped no test. One now drives a real failure and
  asserts the message names the step, its elapsed time, and the bounds.

* chore(#3271): backfill the changeset PR number

* fix(#3271): bound a hook fan-out as its own class, not as a bare probe

CI failure on PR #3285, job full test (windows-latest, 22, shard 2/3) — every
other lane green, including windows-latest node 24 across all three shards:

  not ok 1 - blocks push when any to-be-pushed commit matches local blocked regex
    error: bash .githooks\pre-push failed — outcome=timed_out exitCode=null stderr=
    duration_ms: 15040.2168

A bound, not a hang: the test supplies stdin via input:, so the hook is not
blocked reading its ref list, and the duration lands exactly on the 15000ms
bound.

The site used PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS, which tests/helpers/timeouts.cjs documents as "a
single short CLI query or node -e probe against a temp fixture". This is not
that. It spawns bash running .githooks/pre-push, and the hook then invokes a MOCK
git that is itself a bash script, so one runHook is roughly four Git Bash spawns.
On Windows each is Defender-scanned and the first hook test in a file pays cold
start on top. That module's own docstring warns against precisely this: a call
site that differs from its class must not be forced onto a shared value that does
not describe it.

HOOK_FANOUT_TIMEOUT_MS is that missing class — 60000ms, 4x the bound that failed
and half INSTALL_TIMEOUT_MS, which is the right order: a hook fan-out is much
lighter than a full installer run and far heavier than reading back a version
string. Two tests lock the ordering against both neighbours, including one
asserting real margin over the censored 15040ms observation, since a bound that
merely matched what was measured would be the same defect again.

Scoped deliberately: the other ~360 runHook sites keep their current bounds. This
adds the norm and applies it where a real failure demonstrated the need, rather
than sweeping a value across sites with no evidence for any of them.

c043f2946c fix(#2914): per-PR ack fragments instead of one shared mutable file (#2923)
* fix(#2914): never persist a spent emitted-drift ack on next

tests/emitted-drift-ack.json held 34 spent #2834 entries merged via #2900.
Every entry is scoped to the diff that introduced it (#2789), so once merged
to next it is at the base by definition -- spent and inert. Its presence is
still load-bearing though: each PR rewrites the paths map wholesale, making a
persistent base copy a shared cell. Five of six conflicting PRs in the open
queue collided on this file and nothing else.

Deletes the stale document and adds a push-to-next guard asserting it stays
absent. The guard is deliberately NOT wired into lint:ci -- a PR-lane check
against the base is the #2768 shape #2789 exists to end.

Closes #2914

* fix(#2914): per-PR ack fragments instead of one shared mutable file

The emitted-drift acknowledgment lived in a single tests/emitted-drift-ack.json
whose paths map every PR rewrote wholesale. That is a shared mutable cell: any
two PRs needing an ack edit the same lines and conflict. Five of six conflicting
PRs in the open queue collided on this file and nothing else.

Acks now live as per-PR fragments under tests/emitted-drift-acks/, the same
shape .changeset/ already uses to solve this exact problem. Two PRs pick
different filenames, so they cannot collide, and fragments lingering on next
are harmless rather than toxic.

The legacy file's 35 entries are MIGRATED into a fragment, not deleted. An
earlier delete-only attempt failed verification twice: the ratchet lost the
spec-phase.md acknowledgment from #2779 and reported a 10-byte growth with no
ack. Relocating preserves every acknowledgment.

The legacy single file is still READ (unioned with the fragments) because five
open PRs carry it; dropping support would break all of them. A duplicate path
key across sources is a hard error, never last-wins.

The push-to-next guard is retargeted accordingly: it now asserts only that the
legacy SHARED file never reappears on next. Fragments may persist harmlessly.

* fix(#2891): normalize emitted version against the measured tree, not the measuring repo

buildParityManifest normalized the install-time {{GSD_VERSION}} stamp using
PKG_VERSION, bound at module load from the MEASURING repo's package.json. Since
#2767, currentManifests({repoRoot}) measures a DIFFERENT checkout, so during a
release cut the baseline worktree (origin/next, 1.8.0) was normalized with the
current tree's version (1.9.0) and its literal 1.8.0 stamp survived into the
hash. All 364 emitted hook paths diverged and the differential attribution gate
hard-failed every finalize/rc run.

Normalize against the version of the tree that PRODUCED the emitted output:
buildParityManifest takes an explicit pkgVersion, and currentManifests resolves
it from the measured tree via a new fail-closed measuredPackageVersion().

aa19e3478c fix(#2854): pin the emitted gate to the base the tree was merged with (#2859)
* test(#2854): failing-first coverage for CI baseline export provenance

Extracts the export decision out of main() behind injected IO so it is
unit-testable, preserving today's export-whenever-present semantics, and
adds the matrix that proves those semantics are wrong.

The PR lane restores the emitted baseline keyed on the PR's recorded base
sha while the gate resolves the base ref live, so the two drift whenever
next advances mid-flight. The restore was published straight to
GSD_EMITTED_BASELINE, where a mismatch is fatal, turning a recoverable
cache into a hard failure on diffs that touched nothing related.

Also renames the stale-env fixture from 'from-cache-restore.json' to an
operator-pin name: that fixture asserted the exact conflation this bug
is, documenting the defect as intended behavior.

Refs #2854

* fix(#2854): validate a restored baseline before publishing it as an operator pin

GSD_EMITTED_BASELINE is an operator pin: resolveBaseline() treats a mismatch
there as a hard stop, because the operator said "use this one". CI published
its cache restore to that same variable whenever the file merely existed, so
a restore keyed on the PR's recorded base sha - while the gate resolves the
base ref live - turned a recoverable cache into a fatal error whenever next
advanced mid-flight. Required tests went red on diffs that touched nothing
related, and named a test file the contributor never opened.

The export step is the boundary, so it is the boundary that validates. It now
publishes only a baseline already valid for the sha under test, judged by
validateBaseline so the staleness rule keeps one definition. Anything refused
is left to be found via the cache path, where a mismatch degrades to the
in-job build exactly as ADR-2719 SS5 specifies. The operator hard stop is
untouched, and the fast path still hits on a current cache.

Also reports the sources actually reached rather than asserting all three
ran: the failure message claimed an in-job build it had returned before
calling, sending contributors after a rebuild that never happened.

Fixes #2854

* fix(#2854): pin the emitted gate to the base the tree was actually merged with

The differential compared a tree built on one commit against a baseline at a
different one. "Rebase check" merges pull_request.base.sha, pinned by #2472 so
all 12 matrix jobs agree on one tree, but resolveBase() fell through to
origin/next, which fetch-depth 0 leaves at the live tip. Nothing set
GSD_EMITTED_BASE, so whenever next advanced mid-flight the two disagreed.

The cached baseline, keyed on base.sha, was correct for that tree and was
rejected as STALE by a target that was not. Required tests went red on diffs
that touched nothing related, naming a test file the contributor never opened.

The near miss is the worse half: had resolution gotten past the baseline step,
a baseline at the live tip would have attributed commits merged to next in
between to the PR under test. The hard stop was shielding us from a wrong
answer, so making it fall through would have made this worse.

Pins GSD_EMITTED_BASE to the same expression as CI_REBASE_BASE_SHA in every
rebase-merged job, with a parity test asserting the two cannot diverge. That
parity check immediately caught a third lane, test-inert, that merges a pinned
base and had been missed.

Fixes #2854

* fix(#2854): keep the export step self-contained across the package boundary

scripts/ ships in the npm tarball and tests/ does not, so requiring the
validator across that boundary is MODULE_NOT_FOUND in a published install.
The export step now reads the same GSD_EMITTED_BASE pin the gate resolves
through, and applies a cheap self-contained precondition; validateBaseline
remains the sole authority and still runs downstream on whatever is
published, so there is no second opinion to drift.

Reading the pin rather than re-deriving a base is the point: a second,
divergent base lookup is exactly what caused this bug.

The same hazard pre-exists in scripts/gen-emitted-baseline.cjs, which ships
and requires three tests/ modules. Filed as #2858 rather than folded in:
fixing it means relocating the shared helpers out of tests/ and updating
every consumer, which would bury this change.

Refs #2854

* fix(#2854): stop announcing the restored cache through the operator-pin door

Two independent reviewers found the same blocker in the previous approach.
Validating before publishing to GSD_EMITTED_BASELINE only narrowed the hole:
the precondition gated on sha equality alone, so a document with a MATCHING
sha but a wrong schema version or malformed manifests was still announced as
an operator pin and still hard-stopped downstream. That reproduces this bug's
own class, triggered by malformation instead of staleness.

The step was never load-bearing. The cache restores to
.gsd-cache/emitted-baseline.json, which is resolveBaseline's DEFAULT_CACHE_PATH
and is read whether or not anything announces it. Publishing the same file to
the pin door could only ever convert recoverable into fatal, so the step and
its script are deleted rather than made cleverer. Every failure mode now
degrades to the in-job build by construction, and validateBaseline is once
again the only thing that judges a baseline.

Coverage moves to where the behaviour lives: stale sha, wrong schema version,
manifests array/absent, non-object documents, unreadable file, and the 39/40/41
hex boundary all assert degradation via the cache path. Adds the empty-pin case
a reviewer flagged as untested - the pin is job-level env, so on push events it
renders as an empty string, and only baseRefCandidates' truthy check keeps it
out of the candidate list.

1e3c995e6f fix(#2789): scope the emitted-drift ack to the diff that introduced it (#2803)
* fix(#2789): scope the emitted-drift ack to the diff that introduced it

Every input to `diffEmitted` is base-relative -- `baseline` vs `current`,
`changedPaths` from `git diff base...HEAD` -- except the ack set, which
was read absolutely, from the working tree only. A differential machine
consulting a non-differential input.

So `staleAcks` asks exactly one question, "did a delta consume you?", and
that cannot distinguish an ack that never explained anything (an
authoring mistake) from one whose ripple is now absorbed into the base
(the ack's SUCCESS condition). After merge an ack is in the second state
but reports as the first.

The trigger is ordinary. Actions sets GITHUB_BASE_REF on pull_request
events only, so a push to `next` falls through to origin/next -- the very
commit under test. Both sides build identical content, no deltas remain,
and every live ack is reported stale. PR #2768 acked a deliberate 40866
-> 42020 byte growth, was green on its own lane, and reddened `next` the
moment it merged. It also reds every PR branching off the poisoned base,
and since publish-emitted-baseline is gated on the test job, it blocked
baseline publication too.

Give the ack the base side it was missing. `diffEmitted` now takes
`baseAck` -- the same document at the base ref, via `readAckFileAtRef`.
An entry already present there is SPENT: it may no longer consume a delta
and is never reported stale, only surfaced as `spentAcks` for tidying. An
entry new or reworded in this diff stays live, and if nothing consumes it
that genuinely fails, with blame on the author who just wrote it.

This closes a hazard the IMPLEMENTATION named but could not prevent -- a
leftover ack silently pre-clearing the next ripple on its path. (ADR-2719
§3 asserted only that TOUCHING the file is the alarm; its residual-risk
list never covered pre-clearing, and §3 now carries an amendment.)
Verified against the two-PR laundering sequence -- land an innocuous ack,
then change the artifact -- which passed silently before and now fails on
both the hash pass and the size ratchet.

Three things the design has to get right, each of which was wrong first:

  - A read failure on the base document THROWS; only absence-at-the-ref
    returns null. Returning null on error LOOKS armed (every entry stays
    live) but a live entry's defining power is that it CONSUMES a delta,
    so null is armed on the staleness axis and DISARMED on consumption --
    silently the whole pre-#2789 gate. `git show` cannot tell absence
    from fault, so absence is established with `ls-tree`.
  - Re-arming a spent ack costs actual PROSE. Internal whitespace and the
    zero-width family collapse, and `runtime` is not compared: a doubled
    space, an invisible character, or a decorative field would otherwise
    re-arm an ack whose justification still describes the previous
    ripple, showing a reviewer nothing.
  - `baseAck` is REQUIRED once an ack declares entries -- omission is an
    error, not a silent "inherit nothing" -- so a dropped argument fails
    loudly instead of quietly restoring this bug with the suite green.

Because a corrupt document ON THE BASE is expensive (the loud base-side
failure reds every ack-carrying PR), scripts/lint-emitted-drift-ack.cjs
blocks one from landing. It is standalone rather than importing parseAck
-- scripts/ ships in the npm package and tests/ does not -- so a parity
test runs both surfaces over one corpus and fails on divergence; it
caught one immediately, a `null` document, now classed as policy rather
than schema. Deadlock is separately foreclosed: a tree carrying no ack
never reads the base, so the PR that DELETES a corrupt file still lands.

`readAckFileAtRef` takes an injected git runner so all four branches are
tested deterministically; it never executes in the remote runner, where
the real-tree test skips for want of a base ref. It also refuses an
option-shaped ref, since execFileSync's array form stops shell
metacharacters but not git's own option parsing.

Rejected: skipping the differential when base == HEAD. It treats the
symptom, costs real coverage on the push-to-next lane, and does nothing
about the downstream PRs the same flaw was reddening.

Deletes the now-spent tests/emitted-drift-ack.json, and updates the
CONTEXT.md canon and ADR-2719 §3: presence is no longer the alarm -- a
LIVE entry is, and a spent one is inert.

e276cc7f00 enhance(#2778): make the size-ratchet failure name its own remedy (#2780)
* fix(#2778): exempt intentionally-absent paths from the glossary gate

check-glossary-refs asserts that every backticked tests/ token in
CONTEXT.md resolves on disk. tests/emitted-drift-ack.json (ADR-2719
section 3) is absent on a healthy next BY DESIGN — it appears only
inside a PR that needs it, which is what makes touching it the alarm.

It passed before only by accident of backtick pairing: CONTEXT.md's
RULESET entries are themselves backtick-wrapped and contain backticks,
so the token happened to fall outside a code span. Any edit that
shifted the parity exposed it. A gate that passes by luck is not
passing.

The exemption is exact, not a prefix hole: a sibling missing tests/
path still fails, and a test locks that.

* feat(#2778): make the size-ratchet failure name its own remedy

The growth branch stated a requirement and withheld the means of
satisfying it: no ack file named, no schema, no key format, and no
do-not-regenerate line — so the likeliest guess was to hunt for a
baseline that #2724 deleted. Observed live on #2543.

All remediation now comes from one frozen REMEDIATION export whose
example document is rendered from ACK_VERSION, so the taught schema
cannot drift from the schema parseAck accepts. A round-trip test feeds
the printed document back through parseAck.

The report is now built as a typed IR (buildReport) that formatReport
renders, so tests assert on structure rather than prose, per
CONTRIBUTING.md's raw-text-matching rule.

Two defects found and fixed inline while building:
- diffEmitted's validation early-return omitted newFileCapExceeded
  while formatReport reads its length, so the branch that reports a
  failed git diff threw a TypeError instead of naming the problem.
- Printing one complete ack document per failing branch made each read
  as the whole file, so pasting the second over the first silently lost
  an acknowledgment. One document now covers the whole report.

1c1af70a4b refactor(#2724): delete the committed golden fixtures and size baselines (#2767)
* test(#2724): delete golden-install-parity fixtures, test, and generator

Removes the 19 committed path->hash manifests, the two per-file size
baselines, tests/golden-install-parity.test.cjs, and
scripts/gen-golden-install-parity-zcode.cjs. These were pure functions
of the source tree (ADR-2719); the differential attribution check
(tests/emitted-attribution.test.cjs + tests/emitted-provenance.test.cjs)
is now the sole gate for emitted-artifact propagation.

tests/fixtures/install-tree/*.json and tests/golden-install-tree.test.cjs
are unchanged (ADR-2719 section 7 exception).

Follow-up commits fix the resulting bookkeeping: scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs's
existence guard, .gitattributes, package.json scripts, the emitted-provenance
totality guard's IO, the differential check's baseline acquisition, CI
wiring to publish/restore the baseline artifact, and docs.

* refactor(#2724): make the differential attribution check self-sufficient

Three fixes required to delete the golden fixtures without breaking CI:

- scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs: remove tests/golden-install-parity.test.cjs
  from the three rules that named it. #2759's missingRuleTestFiles guard
  hard-throws at module load if a rule names a test file absent from
  disk, which would break the changes job on every PR the moment the
  fixture-deletion commit landed.

- tests/helpers/emitted-provenance.cjs: loadManifests() read the
  committed golden fixture directory. With that directory deleted at
  every future ref, this would throw at module load forever, taking
  the Phase 2 totality guard down with it. Rebuilt from real installer
  spawns (MANIFEST_FAMILIES + runMinimalInstall + buildParityManifest),
  the same shape emitted-runtime.cjs's currentManifests() already uses.

- tests/emitted-attribution.test.cjs / tests/helpers/emitted-runtime.cjs:
  the real-tree test's baseline acquisition swaps from
  baselineManifestsAtRef(base) (git show at a ref that no longer carries
  fixtures) to resolveBaseline()'s documented precedence: env, then the
  on-disk cache, then an in-job build. The build fallback
  (buildBaselineAtRef, new) checks out base into a throwaway git
  worktree and runs the new scripts/gen-emitted-baseline.cjs there --
  no npm ci needed, since bin/install.js and the test helper shells are
  Node-builtins-only. That script also publishes the baseline artifact
  from CI's push-to-next job (wired in a follow-up commit).

* refactor(#2724): retire the merge-driver bridge and per-file size baselines

The Phase 1 bridge (#2721) is retired now that the artifacts it guarded
are deleted: scripts/git-merge-regen-driver.cjs, its test, and the
'setup:merge-driver' npm script are removed, and the .gitattributes
merge=gsd-regen/linguist-generated block for the three deleted-path
globs is dropped. tests/fixtures/install-tree/*.json keeps its normal
merge behavior, unchanged (ADR-2719 section 7).

scripts/update-size-baseline.cjs and its test are removed: their sole
purpose was regenerating tests/workflow-size-baseline.json and
tests/agent-size-baseline.json, both deleted. The 'size:baseline' npm
script and its step in 'regen:derived' go with it. The per-file
baseline describe blocks in tests/workflow-size-budget.test.cjs and
tests/agent-size-budget.test.cjs are removed for the same reason; the
independent loose-tier hard caps are untouched. The differential
attribution check's size ratchet (tests/emitted-diff.cjs, already
shipped in #2723) is the replacement anti-creep mechanism.

'npm run gen:golden' is replaced by 'npm run gen:install-tree', which
keeps regenerating tests/fixtures/install-tree/*.json (the one artifact
family ADR-2719 section 7 keeps committed); tests/golden-install-tree.test.cjs's
error messages point at the new command name.

tests/golden-parity-single-source.test.cjs's anti-divergence guard
(#2266) is retargeted from the two deleted golden-parity consumers to
their two replacements (tests/helpers/emitted-runtime.cjs and
tests/helpers/emitted-provenance.cjs), which import buildParityManifest
the same way — the divergence risk the guard exists for is unchanged.

Also wires CI: a new publish-emitted-baseline job runs
scripts/gen-emitted-baseline.cjs after a push to next and caches the
result keyed on the sha; the test and test-full jobs restore that cache
on pull_request events, keyed on the PR's base sha, and export
GSD_EMITTED_BASELINE for tests/emitted-attribution.test.cjs's real-tree
test to pick up.

* docs(#2724): add changeset for removed golden-parity commands

* fix(#2724): drop stale scripts/update-size-baseline.cjs glossary ref

check-glossary-refs.cjs verifies every backtick-wrapped scripts/*.cjs
token in CONTEXT.md resolves to a real file. The RULESET.
EMITTED_ATTRIBUTION rewrite named the deleted script inside backticks,
which the checker reads as a live reference, not historical prose.

* test(#2724): retarget ci-test-scope tests off the deleted golden test

tests/ci-test-scope.test.cjs asserted specific RULES entries select
tests/golden-install-parity.test.cjs, and that every rule selecting it
also selects both emitted gates. Both premises broke when the golden
test was deleted (#2724): the deleted filename never re-appears in
targeted_tests, and there was no longer a third file for the gates to
travel alongside. Retargeted the two selection describe blocks to
assert tests/emitted-provenance.test.cjs directly (the drift guard the
golden gate's rules were retargeted to), and simplified the third block
to assert the two emitted gates always travel together, without
reference to the golden filename.

* docs(#2724): repoint two contributor how-to guides at the differential check

Both guides told contributors to regenerate a baseline against
tests/golden-install-parity.test.cjs, which #2724 deletes. Repointed
at the differential attribution check (tests/emitted-attribution.test.cjs,
ADR-2719), which needs no manual regeneration step.

* fix(#2724): repair phase6-capstone-conformance's deleted-baseline read

An independent orthogonal review caught a real regression this branch
introduced into a test file the branch's diff never touched:
tests/phase6-capstone-conformance.test.cjs read
tests/workflow-size-baseline.json (deleted earlier in this branch) with
no fallback, so the whole suite would throw ENOENT the moment this
branch landed. The test's actual intent — prove the host-loop workflow
files are real, tracked, non-empty docs — is preserved by asserting the
live byte count via the same shared counter (scripts/workflow-size.cjs)
the size guards already use, instead of a committed snapshot.

Also, from the same review: a stale doc comment in
scripts/workflow-size.cjs still named the deleted
scripts/update-size-baseline.cjs as a consumer, and
buildBaselineAtRef's cleanup in tests/helpers/emitted-runtime.cjs left
two fs.rmSync calls unguarded against masking the primary result/error,
inconsistent with the try/catch already wrapping the git cleanup beside
them. Both fixed. A doc comment was added to baselineFamilyNamesAtRef
explaining why it (and its siblings) are kept despite having no
production caller post-cutover — they still answer real questions
about refs that predate the cutover.

* fix(#2724): repair three real regressions found by remote verification

1. tests/emitted-provenance.test.cjs's two hostile-input tests
   (non-object manifest, unreadable fixture) drove loadManifests(tmp)
   and monkeypatched fs.readFileSync, both premised on the deleted
   fixture-directory read this branch already replaced with real
   installer spawns -- the negative assertions silently stopped firing.
   loadManifests() now accepts injected {families, install, build,
   clean} (defaulting to production values), giving the tests a real
   seam to drive a bad build result and a build failure through the
   ACTUAL loader instead of a reimplementation, and added coverage that
   clean() still runs on both paths.

2. .github/workflows/test.yml's two 'Export GSD_EMITTED_BASELINE'
   steps hardcoded shell: bash, which is wrong on windows-latest (native
   pwsh) and on test-full's macos-latest legs (native zsh per that job's
   own matrix) -- the repo's H1 shell policy (tests/policy-shell-pinning
   .test.cjs) caught it. Replaced the inline bash script with
   scripts/ci-export-emitted-baseline-env.cjs, a plain Node script: a
   bare 'node <path>' command line has no shell-specific syntax, so it
   runs correctly under bash, zsh, and pwsh without a shell override.

tests/phase6-capstone-conformance.test.cjs's deleted-baseline read
(caught by the same remote run, at a commit prior to this one) was
already fixed in d0c3b1242 and is not touched here; verified still
passing after these changes.

* fix(#2724): revive ADR-1610's new-file size cap inside the differential

An isolated review caught a real regression: deleting
tests/workflow-size-baseline.json silently dropped NEW_FILE_CAP
(ADR-1610 Decision point 3, the Codex project_doc_max_bytes anchor)
with no successor. tests/helpers/emitted-diff.cjs's size ratchet
already 'continue's past any file absent from sizeBaseline -- exactly
the files this cap exists to bound -- so a brand-new workflow file
sized 32,769-40,960 bytes passed CI clean and shipped, then risked
silent truncation at the Codex anchor at runtime. ADR-1610 is Accepted
and never referenced anywhere in this branch.

Fix: NEW_FILE_CAP=32768 revived inside emitted-diff.cjs's own
size-ratchet loop, keyed off the SAME hasOwnProperty(sizeBaseline,
name) signal the growth check already computes -- 'new' is exactly
'present in sizeCurrent, absent from sizeBaseline'. Not ack-able,
matching the tier hard caps it sits beside: the fix is extraction, not
an acknowledgment entry. Documented, disclosed narrowing: the pure
differential module cannot see XL_WORKFLOWS/LARGE_WORKFLOWS tiering
(tests/workflow-size-budget.test.cjs's classification), so a
legitimately large new file must extract rather than tier in, one
release earlier than an existing file would need to. ADR-1610 itself is
left unamended -- this restores its decision rather than re-litigating
it.

Also fixes a stale comment plus a redundant real 19-installer-spawn
assertion left over from the pre-injection-seam version of
tests/emitted-provenance.test.cjs's build-failure test, and annotates
3 of 4 stale golden-fixture citations in
docs/reference/host-integration-capability-matrix.md as superseded
(the 4th is an accurate historical PR narrative, left alone).

* fix(#2724): repair three red CI defects on the golden-fixture cutover

Windows-only provenance false attribution (defect A): the `hooks-built`
provenance rule attributed `hooks/<name>.cmd` to itself. Those shims are
Windows-only installer output (ensureCodexHooksJsonSessionStart /
ensureCodexHooksJsonEvent, both in src/runtime-hooks-surface.cts) wrapping
the same-named `.js` hook — no `.cmd` file is ever tracked in the repo, so
the self-attribution resolved to a path that exists on no platform. Only
windows-latest ever emits the key, so this only failed there. Fixed by
special-casing `.cmd` inside the SAME `hooks-built` rule (not a dedicated
rule) — a dedicated rule would match zero paths, and therefore report as a
dead rule, on every non-Windows lane of the same totality guard. `sources`
already supported per-match functions; `transforms` is extended to support
the same shape so the attribution can vary by match within one rule.

Baseline bootstrap was structurally impossible (defect B): `buildBaselineAtRef`
ran `scripts/gen-emitted-baseline.cjs` from INSIDE the base-ref worktree, but
that script is new in this PR and therefore absent at any base ref that
predates it — every call failed closed with "Cannot find module". Fixed by
running the PR checkout's own generator against the worktree via a new `--dir`
parameter, decoupling "which copy of the script runs" from "which tree it
measures" (`currentManifests`/`currentSizes` gained a `repoRoot` override,
threaded down to `runMinimalInstall`'s new `installScript` override). This is
not just a bootstrap fix: a differential needs ONE measurement schema applied
to both sides, or the two stop being comparable the moment that schema
evolves — running each side's own copy would silently reintroduce that risk.
Verified locally end-to-end against real origin/next: resolves a valid
{version, sha, manifests, sizes} artifact with the correct sha and no leaked
worktree.

Changeset placeholder (defect C): `pr: 0` -> `pr: 2767`, which is what let
docs-lint evaluate the fragment for the first time; it already passes
(docs/TESTING-SUITES.md and friends already document the removed scripts).

Also fixed while in this file: an eslint no-unused-vars warning surfaced by
the changed lint run (unused `cleanup` import in
tests/emitted-provenance.test.cjs).

Added regression coverage for both A and B: a cross-platform spot-check that
drives the real hooks-built rule against `.cmd` keys directly (not through a
real Windows install), and a real-tree test that drives buildBaselineAtRef
against a base ref verified (via git cat-file) to lack the generator, both
skipping honestly rather than false-passing when their precondition does not
hold.

* fix(#2724): repair false .cmd byte-provenance and a permanently-skipping regression test

Two isolated-review findings on PR #2767:

- `hooks-built`'s `.cmd` branch attributed the Windows shim's bytes to the
  wrapped `hooks/<name>.js` script, asserting a byte-provenance link that
  does not exist — traced against buildCodexHookWindowsShimIR
  (src/runtime-hooks-surface.cts), only the script's NAME (a literal in that
  same file) flows into the .cmd bytes, never its content. Point `sources`
  at HOOKS_WINDOWS_SHIM_SRC instead, matching the code-derived convention
  used elsewhere in the table. Since `sources` is checked before
  `transforms` in the differential, the wrong mapping silently excused any
  .cmd byte movement caused by editing the wrapped .js file.

- The `buildBaselineAtRef` regression test skipped unless a resolvable base
  ref still lacked scripts/gen-emitted-baseline.cjs — true only until this
  PR merges, after which every base ref carries the file and the test skips
  forever with zero ongoing coverage. Rebuilt hermetically: synthesize the
  missing-generator condition in-place via git plumbing (a throwaway commit,
  child of HEAD, with just that one file removed from a scratch index),
  never touching the real working tree, HEAD, or index, and never depending
  on ambient history or remotes.

* fix(#2724): tolerate the remote runner's dubious-ownership git mount in the emitted baseline path

The runner container mounts the repo at a path owned by a different uid than
the process running the suite, so git's dubious-ownership protection refuses
every git operation there. GitHub Actions never hits this because
actions/checkout registers the workspace as safe automatically; this
runner's container does not.

buildBaselineAtRef is the production build-fallback the sole remaining
emitted gate depends on (resolveBaseline's in-job-build leg), not just a
test helper, so the fix is in the shared git() wrapper (emitted-runtime.cjs)
that every caller — resolveChangedPaths, resolveBase, buildBaselineAtRef's
worktree add/remove/prune, and the hermetic regression test added in the
prior commit — funnels through, plus gen-emitted-baseline.cjs's own
rev-parse (now reusing that same wrapper instead of a second execFileSync,
so the fix has one source of truth). Each call declares -c
safe.directory=<the exact directory it already operates on>, never the *
wildcard.

Audited every other helper on this surface (emitted-diff.cjs,
emitted-baseline.cjs, install-shared.cjs) for the same gap: none of them
shell out to git at all.

44707c2c5e fix(#2757): attribute transform-driven emitted changes and reclassify agents-verbatim (#2760)
* fix(#2757): let derived provenance rules attribute a transform change

The Phase 2 provenance table (#2722) could only explain a moved emitted
path via its `sources`, so a `kind: 'derived'` artifact whose TRANSFORM
code changed (not its source) was unattributable by construction: 16
emitted agents/*.toml moved by PR #2566's runtime-artifact-conversion.cts
change, with zero agents/*.md in the diff.

Adds an optional per-rule `transforms: string[]`. A moved emitted path
now attributes via its source OR its transform, reusing sourceSatisfiedBy
so exact/prefix matching stays identical for both. Declared narrowly on
agents-toml-derived and agents-verbatim (the two families verified to
route through the same conversion pipeline) as
src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts, src/install-effort-resolver.cts, and
src/model-catalog.cts — never bin/install.js, which would be a blanket
escape hatch spanning every installer concern.

Also corrects agents-verbatim from kind:'identity' to kind:'derived':
measured against origin/next's own fixtures, the same agents/<name>.md
hashes differently per runtime (e.g. codex vs claude), which a true
verbatim copy cannot do. Verified empirically by installing every
runtime and diffing against the raw repo source — none reproduce it
byte-for-byte; every one rewrites frontmatter and the hardcoded
.claude/ self-reference, and claude additionally gets an effort: line
injected. A new assertNoIdentityTransforms invariant rejects an
identity rule that declares a non-empty transforms list.

Closes #2757

* docs(#2757): flag PR #2566's transform-role files for later verification

src/agent-tools-contract.cts (added by #2566, absent on next) and
src/agent-install-check.cts (modified +112/-1 by #2566, read-only today)
were reviewed for prospective inclusion in AGENT_TRANSFORM_SRCS.

Excluded for now: the nonexistent file would fail this fix's own
"every declared transform path exists" hygiene test, and the modified
file's future role cannot be verified without the unmerged PR's diff.
Documents the reasoning, the interim ack-file safety net, and the
verification method to apply once these files stabilize, so the next
PR touching them has a pre-scoped one-line fix rather than a silent gap.

0f60266042 fix(#2723): reconcile emitted manifest families as a set, not a count (#2750)
* fix(#2723): reconcile emitted manifest families as a set, not a shared count

EXPECTED_MANIFEST_COUNT was a single literal 19 asserted against both the
baseline (built at the base ref) and the current tree (built at PR HEAD).
Those sides legitimately differ by one family whenever a PR adds or removes
a runtime, so no value satisfied both: 19 rejected the current side, 20
rejected the baseline side. Every runtime-adding PR was hard-blocked.

Replace the shared literal with three independent signals - the derived
family set, the recorded fixture set, and the families present at the base
ref - reconciled as sets in both directions. A family may appear or vanish
only when the diff plausibly touches the runtime registry, and the failure
names the family rather than a count. An absolute floor catches the
uniformly shrunken universe a same-count self-check passes vacuously.

Found by tracing #2005 (Qoder runtime) through the gate during the ADR-2719
dual-run window.

* fix(#2723): read the baseline family set from the ref, not HEAD's registry

Review found three defects in the first cut.

Blocker: baselineManifestsAtRef enumerated MANIFEST_FAMILIES, which is imported
at module load and therefore describes PR HEAD. A runtime REMOVED by the PR is
already absent from that list, so the base ref was never asked for it, the
baseline silently omitted a family that genuinely existed, and the dropped-family
check could never fire in production - while its unit tests passed, because they
inject the baseline directly. Enumerate from the ref with git ls-tree instead.

Also: narrow the registry-signal set to the two surfaces that actually define the
family set, since every extra path widens what excuses an unattributed delta; drop
the ack bypass, which was a one-sided escape hatch making removals easier to wave
through than additions; and gate the derived/fixtures inputs so malformed values
return a verdict rather than an unhandled TypeError.

* fix(#2723): filter prototype-shaped family names read from git output

baselineFamilyNamesAtRef derives object keys from git ls-tree output rather
than a trusted constant, so a fixture committed as __proto__.json would turn
the manifests[name] assignment into a prototype write. Compared inline rather
than through a Set, which is the form the prototype-pollution analysis
recognizes.

* fix(#2723): require an exact capability path depth and make the ref test hermetic

The remote runner went red on both linux lanes with two real defects.

The capability signal matched by prefix+suffix, so 'capabilities/capability.json'
(no runtime segment) and 'capabilities/a/b/capability.json' (wrong depth) both
attributed a family change and would have excused an unattributed delta. Anchored
to an exact single-segment pattern.

The ref-derivation test reached for this repo's root commit, which is not stable:
the remote runner shallow-clones, so rev-list --max-parents=0 returns the grafted
boundary carrying every fixture, and this repo has two root commits locally anyway.
It now builds its own git repo containing a family absent from the current registry
- the real discriminator, and one the root-commit version could never assert.

Lint then caught a third: the test called t.after() without declaring t.

* fix(#2723): stop asserting ref enumeration against the ambient checkout

The remote runner returned [] for the repo's own HEAD while every hermetic
temp-repo assertion in the same test passed. That is this function's documented
behavior when git cannot read the ref - the runner works from a shallow clone
under a bind-mounted workdir - so the assertion was testing the checkout rather
than the code.

Dropped it. The temp repo already proves the property that matters, and proves it
more strongly: it contains a family absent from the current registry, which a
registry-derived implementation could never report. The ambient path stays covered
by the real-tree test, which skips explicitly when no base ref is resolvable.

A git failure is not silently permissive downstream: baselineManifestsAtRef returns
null on an empty family set and the real-tree test asserts the baseline is non-empty.

9138271b5f test(#2723): differential emitted-attribution check, dual-run beside the golden (#2737)
* test(#2723): differential emitted-attribution check, dual-run beside the golden

Phase 3 of #2719. The conservation law itself, running BESIDE
golden-install-parity.test.cjs -- both green, fixtures untouched.

Every emitted path whose hash moved between next HEAD and PR HEAD must be
attributable, through the Phase 2 table, to a path the PR actually changed.
Unattributable deltas fail with the paths NAMED. The only way through is a
committed acknowledgment, never a flag -- a contributor facing a red gate
sets a flag, which is what UPDATE_GOLDEN=1 is today.

The central decision is that the law is a PURE function (no fs, git,
installer, or clock), with I/O confined to a separate resolver. The naive
one-big-integration-test shape would need ~38 installer spawns per assertion,
so #2723's four failing-first criteria would not in practice have been
written -- which is exactly how a phase ships promised-but-not-built. Pure,
they are millisecond table tests, and the Stryker gate can actually bite.

Buckets are conserved: every moved path lands in exactly one of
attributed | unattributable | acked, property-tested at 400 runs. A path the
provenance table cannot resolve surfaces as an error, never a silent skip.

Asymmetries that are deliberate, each with a test:
- an ADDED emitted key is a ripple too, not just a modified one
- synthesized paths are exempt; code-derived ones are NOT (Phase 2 refused to
  mark them exempt precisely because exempt means permanently blind)
- shrinkage needs no ack; growth does. Gating shrinkage would punish exactly
  what the size ratchet wants
- a STALE ack is a hard failure -- an ack outliving its ripple pre-clears the
  next one on that path
- a failed `git diff` is an explicit error, never an empty changedPaths set;
  reading it as "nothing changed" would make everything unattributable and
  produce a failure storm that reads like a real finding
- prefix sources are SEGMENT-aware, so `agents/` does not attribute
  `agentsfoo/x.md`

Baseline is cached, not committed, keyed on the next sha. A stale key is
refused rather than used: absence fails loudly and gets fixed, whereas
staleness produces a confident wrong answer. An explicitly pointed-at
GSD_EMITTED_BASELINE that is stale is a hard stop; a stale cache falls
through to the in-job build. No baseline-unavailable path returns -- ADR-2719
section 6 names that trap, since in node:test a bare return is a PASS.

Both the conservation property and the staleness gate were mutation-verified
(injecting a swallowed key fails 9 tests; disabling the staleness comparison
fails 5).

Fixtures, generators, the merge driver and the ADR status are untouched --
those are Phase 4 (#2724).

* test(#2723): compute stale acks once, after the size pass

Self-review defect found while the reviewers were running. `staleAcks` was
computed twice: once between the hash pass and the size pass, then again
after. Only the second value was returned, so the first was dead code -- and
the dead one was placed where it would have been WRONG.

An acknowledgment can be consumed by either a hash move or a size growth.
Computing staleness before the size pass reports a legitimate growth ack as
stale, which is a false failure that pushes a contributor to delete the very
ack that is doing its job.

Now computed once, after both passes, with a regression test. Verified by
mutation: restoring the early computation fails 2 tests.

* test(#2723): wire the attribution check to the real tree, not just synthetic input

An isolated reviewer caught that the first cut was INTERFACE-ONLY: nothing
read the ack file from disk, nothing shelled git, nothing built real
manifests. Every test was true of hand-built inputs and none of the repo, so
the acceptance criterion "both this check and golden-install-parity green on
the same tree" was trivially true rather than meaningfully true. That is the
promised-but-not-built failure this epic keeps finding in its predecessors,
recurring one phase later for the wiring itself. Taken, not argued.

Adds tests/helpers/emitted-runtime.cjs -- the only module that touches git,
disk, or the installer -- and an integration test that runs the same pure law
against reality:

- CURRENT side: 19 real installer spawns via runMinimalInstall +
  buildParityManifest, the same machinery the golden harness uses.
- BASELINE side: `git show origin/next:<fixture>`. That is next's RECORDED
  emitted state and it costs nothing. Deliberately NOT the working-tree
  fixtures, which are whatever this PR's author regenerated -- comparing
  against those would be vacuous. Phase 4 deletes the fixtures and swaps in
  resolveBaseline's cache path, already implemented and tested.
- changed paths from real `git diff --name-only origin/next...HEAD`, with the
  git subprocess bounded at 30s per CLAUDE.md's unbounded-subprocess rule.
- the real tests/emitted-drift-ack.json (absent is legal; present-but-empty
  or unparseable throws rather than being read as absent).

Verified it can actually fail: an uncommitted edit to a shipped workflow
moves emitted output but never appears in the committed diff, and the check
names all 18 affected emitted paths with the message format ADR-2719 §1
specifies. Restores clean.

Also from review:
- readAckFile now has a real test exercising the SUT across absent / valid /
  empty / unparseable / unreadable. The previous test asserted fs behaviour
  rather than SUT behaviour, because no SUT ack-reading path existed yet.
- formatReport's sampleLimit gains true limit-1/limit/limit+1 coverage at
  19/20/21. A test was previously NAMED "(limit+1)" while testing no numeric
  limit at all, which is worse than no coverage because it reads as covered.

Windows uses an explicit t.skip (install output is platform-specific there,
mirroring the golden harness) -- never a bare return, which node:test scores
as a PASS.

* test(#2723): cover the claude-local manifest family in the real-tree check

Isolated adversarial review, MAJOR. The real-tree wiring enumerated
Object.keys(RUNTIME_META) -- 18 entries -- while the emitted manifest set has
19 families. The 19th is claude-local: claude is the reference host and the
only runtime with a distinct LOCAL "legacy flat-commands" layout
(commands/gsd-*.md + agents/gsd-*.md at project scope), which
golden-install-parity.test.cjs guards with a hand-coded test outside its
RUNTIME_META loop (#2086).

The family was dropped from BOTH sides, so the test's own self-check
(current.length === baseline.length) passed vacuously at 18 === 18. A PR
changing Claude's local-scope output would have failed the golden while this
check reported ok -- and that disagreement is precisely what the dual-run
window is designed to surface as a provenance-table hole. A wiring omission
masquerading as one is the worst available failure here, because it would
have been read as evidence about Phase 2 rather than a bug in Phase 3.

Fixed by deriving MANIFEST_FAMILIES explicitly (18 global + claude-local at
local scope) instead of inferring the set from RUNTIME_META.

The self-check is also repaired: it now asserts both sides against the
INDEPENDENT EXPECTED_MANIFEST_COUNT from the Phase 2 table, and asserts
claude-local specifically. Comparing the two sides to each other can never
catch a family missing from both -- the assertion has to come from outside.
Verified by mutation: removing claude-local again fails the test.

Also from the same review:
- sourceSatisfiedBy returns the matched source string, so an empty-string
  source would return '' and the caller's `if (hit)` would silently discard a
  real match. Unreachable today (every rule source is a non-empty template)
  but a footgun for the next rule author; now `!== null`.
- the purity fixture used a single-element changedPaths array, so an in-place
  sort would have been invisible. Now three elements in unsorted order.

* fix(#2723): resolve the base ref tolerantly instead of hard-requiring origin/next

The first matrix run failed on both linux lanes:

  differential attribution over the real tree
  cannot resolve origin/next (Command failed: git rev-parse origin/next)

Not a flake, and not an environment excuse -- a real defect in this diff. The
gsd-test runner shallow-clones and merges base+head, so no origin/* remote-
tracking refs exist in the container. My own fail-loud path fired correctly;
what was wrong was hard-depending on that ref existing. GitHub Actions has the
same shape by default, which is exactly why changeset-required.yml carries an
explicit `git fetch origin "${BASE_REF}:refs/remotes/origin/${BASE_REF}"`.

Now resolved through an ordered candidate list -- GSD_EMITTED_BASE (explicit
lane override), then origin/$GITHUB_BASE_REF and $GITHUB_BASE_REF, then
origin/next and next -- de-duplicated, each verified with
`rev-parse --verify <ref>^{commit}`.

When NO candidate resolves the test takes an explicit t.skip() naming every
ref it tried and stating that the gate did not run here. That is the
ADR-2719 section 6 distinction: t.skip is REPORTED as skipped, whereas a bare
return is scored as a PASS. Hard-failing was the other option and is wrong --
it would make the suite permanently red wherever a base ref cannot exist by
construction, which is a statement about the checkout, not a propagation
finding.

The candidate ordering is pinned by a unit test rather than left implicit,
since the ordering IS the fix.
