The windows-test-parity ratchet greps test source for fs.rmSync-without-
maxRetries (and six other Windows-portability anti-patterns), failing when an
integer offender COUNT exceeds a frozen baseline (rmSync: 95). A count ratchet
is a Goodhart metric: fixing one offender and adding another keeps the count
constant, so a new defect slips through green. Replace it — and every other
count ratchet in the repo — with a layered, masking-proof design.
Behavioral seam test
- tests/helpers-cleanup.test.cjs proves helpers.cleanup() carries the Windows
EBUSY retry budget. cleanup() delegates retries to Node's fs.rmSync via
maxRetries (it owns no loop), so the test asserts the option contract
(recursive/force/maxRetries>0/retryDelay>0) + real-FS removal + the cwd-guard,
rather than a loop that does not exist. The EBUSY risk is now tested ONCE at
the helper, not approximated textually at every call site.
Write-time ESLint rule (AST-accurate, replaces the grep)
- eslint-rules/no-raw-rmsync-in-tests.cjs (error in tests/**/*.test.cjs) bans
raw fs.rmSync, steering to cleanup(). Catches member, computed (fs['rmSync']),
destructured and aliased forms; escape hatch is inline
`// eslint-disable-next-line local/no-raw-rmsync-in-tests -- <reason>` only.
- Migrated 336 raw fs.rmSync teardown calls across ~116 test files to cleanup().
~18 genuinely load-bearing sites (mid-test SUT/fault-injection removals,
error-swallowing or name-colliding local teardown helpers) keep the raw call
with an inline eslint-disable + reason.
Shared anti-ratchet primitive
- scripts/lib/allowlist-ratchet.cjs:
- assertWithinAllowlist: fails on NOVEL ids (new offender introduced) AND on
STALE ids (a known offender was fixed but not pruned) — identity, not count,
and a ratchet DOWN toward zero.
- assertTightCeiling: a size/length budget whose ceiling must stay within a
grace band of the high-water mark, so budgets may only tighten, never creep.
Ratchets converted onto the primitive
- windows-test-parity-guard.test.cjs: rmSync rule deleted (now ESLint-enforced);
the remaining six patterns moved from integer baselines to named-set
allowlists with ratchet-down.
- scripts/lint-test-file-count.{cjs,allowlist.json}: per-module integer counts →
named filename sets (closes the swap-a-file-keep-the-count blind spot); a
module dropping under cap now FAILS to force pruning its allowlist entry.
- enh-2790 skill-count `<= 63` → named skill allowlist (ratchets toward ~58).
Size budgets hardened (tighten-only)
- agent-size / workflow-size / feat-3039 help-tiered: ceilings lowered to the
current high-water mark and an assertTightCeiling anti-creep check added per
tier. Fixed external-contract limits (description ≤100 chars, agent ≤100 KB)
are intentionally left as-is — they are not grandfathered creeping budgets.
No user-facing behavior change (tests + tooling only); no USER_FACING_PREFIXES
touched, so no changeset fragment is required.

* fix(3683): normalize /gsd:<cmd> → /gsd-<cmd> in command, workflow, and reference bodies
Extends #3677's agent-body normalizer to all body text staged through
copyWithPathReplacement (commands, workflows, references). The initial
isCommand guard was structurally redundant — normalizeAgentBodyForRuntime
already self-gates on shouldNormalizeHyphenNamespaceInAgentBody(runtime),
so dropping it covers all hyphen-name runtimes (Claude / Qwen / Hermes)
without affecting colon-canonical runtimes (Gemini).
Addresses the user-visible symptom in #3683: workflows like
get-shit-done/workflows/discuss-phase.md (7 colon refs) leaked /gsd:<cmd>
markers to the model context, which the model echoed at the end of
/gsd-discuss-phase runs.
Source-prose drift caught by the new cross-reference invariant test:
- commands/gsd/plan-phase.md: removed a slash-form mention of the
deleted /gsd-research-phase command (#3042)
- commands/gsd/profile-user.md: replaced a slash-form artifact
reference with a backticked bare name (the referenced item is a
skill config, not a user-callable slash command)
Tests:
- tests/bug-3683-command-colon-namespace-leak.test.cjs — runtime-form
regression for commands/gsd/*.md staging
- tests/bug-3683-command-cross-reference-invariant.test.cjs — locks
cross-reference coherence: every /gsd-X / /gsd:X reference in a
command body must resolve to commands/gsd/X.md (so a future rename
forces every cross-reference to update)
- tests/bug-3683-workflow-colon-namespace-leak.test.cjs — runtime-form
regression for workflows + references; negative test for gemini
asserting the colon form is preserved
Fixes#3683
