cbd180c5cd test(#3147): bound the lint/changeset/docs cluster onto the process seam (#3181)
* test(#3147): bound the lint/changeset/docs cluster onto the process seam

Migrates 69 unbounded sync spawn sites across 24 files. Allowlist 73 to 49.

Two shared helpers move: tests/helpers/graphify.cjs (6 importing suites) and
tests/fixtures/index.cjs, whose three quoted-argument shell strings became
single argv elements rather than whitespace splits.

changeset-lint's throw-native git() helper routes to gitOrThrow; migrating it
to bare runGit would have silently swallowed a failure that is loud today.
ingest-docs goes the other way -- its catch never rethrew, it degraded failure
into data every call site asserts on, so throwIfFailed would have thrown where
the original returned. The design doc said otherwise and was corrected.

tsconfig-noemit runs a real tsc --noEmit and takes a bespoke 180000ms per the
ensure-runtime-build precedent, not the 30000ms build-hooks norm -- that norm
is for a file copy, and sizing against a label rather than the work is the
same error in the opposite direction.

* test(#3147): add toLegacyResult and settle review findings

The seam exposed a throwing adapter (throwIfFailed) but no non-throwing one,
so eight files independently re-derived the same unwrap back to the legacy
{status, stdout, stderr} shape. That is the third time this epic produced N
copies of one mechanism -- seven throw wrappers in Wave 1, fifty-two timeout
constants in Wave 2, eight result adapters here. The pattern is that whenever
the seam does not expose a mechanism, every suite re-derives it.

toLegacyResult now sits beside throwIfFailed, with its own tests.

Two sites are deliberately NOT converted: changeset-cli's runRender and
runRenderIn return {status, report, stderr} from parsed JSON and never a raw
stdout, so they are a different shape family. lint-legacy-dir-name keeps its
local GUARD_TIMEOUT_MS: 30000 matches the build norm numerically but bounds a
lint probe, not hooks bundling, and importing it would encode a coincidence
as a relationship.

27aa40f65e fix(#3023): stage pi's shared hook bundle outside pi's reserved hooks/ directory (#3175)
* test(#3023): failing-first guard — pi must not stage hooks in its reserved dir

pi reserves <configDir>/hooks as its deprecated extension location and warns
on every startup when it exists. Assert a pi install stages the shared hook
bundle under gsd-hooks/ instead, manifests it there, and never creates hooks/.

Also adds pi to the local-scope dir table in install-shared.cjs: pi was in
RUNTIME_META but not LOCAL_DIR_NAME, so scope:'local' resolved
path.join(root, undefined) and no local pi install could be exercised.

Fails before the fix. Verified via the remote runner.

* fix(#3023): stage pi's shared hook bundle outside pi's reserved hooks/ dir

pi reserves <configDir>/hooks as its now-deprecated extension location and
warns on every startup when that directory merely exists — checkDeprecatedExtensionDirs()
guards the warning with a bare existsSync(), unlike its tools/ sibling. GSD staged
its shared hook bundle exactly there, and pi's advised remediation (move it to
extensions/) would break the adapter's paths and expose GSD's .js helpers to pi's
extension auto-discovery.

The bundle directory name is now runtime-descriptor-driven: hostBehaviors
.sharedHooksDirName, defaulting to 'hooks' so all 18 other runtimes are
byte-identical. pi sets 'gsd-hooks'. The name is validated as a single path
segment — separators, dot-only segments, trailing dots, absolute paths, NUL,
and Windows reserved device names all fall back to the default, because the
value is joined onto a user's config root and written to.

Renamed in place rather than relocated: hook scripts resolve siblings via
__dirname/.., so a depth change would silently break them.

- install / uninstall / manifest sites all read the resolved name
- pi/gsd.cjs probes gsd-hooks then hooks, so dev checkouts and half-upgraded
  trees still resolve; the never-throws contract is preserved
- new migration 009 retires the legacy pi hooks/ dir on upgrade, using a new
  non-recursive remove-empty-dir engine primitive (rmdirSync only,
  symlink-refusing, containment-guarded); ADR-0008 amended accordingly
- fixes two latent name-dependencies the rename exposed: the stale-hook scan
  and the injection scanner's self-exclusion both hardcoded 'hooks'

Verified on the remote runner.

Closes #3023

* fix(#3023): close review findings and align emitted provenance with the rename

Adversarial review found two defects, and the remote runner found four
failure clusters. All fixed here.

Review BLOCKER — detect-custom-files was blind to the renamed bundle.
GSD_PREFIX_MANAGED_DIRS in gsd-tools.cjs hardcoded 'hooks', so for pi the
whole gsd-hooks/ tree was invisible to the custom-file scan and user-added
files there were never backed up before the next update's clean-install wipe.
The dir set now resolves via the .gsd-runtime marker plus the shipped
capability registry (never bin/install.js, which is not shipped into installed
trees), and falls back to scanning every known candidate when the runtime
cannot be determined — over-scanning is safe, under-scanning is the data loss.

Review MAJOR — the pi adapter bound to an empty bundle. resolveSharedHooksDir
accepted any directory, so an interrupted install left gsd-hooks/ winning over
a fully-staged legacy hooks/ and every hook silently no-opped. A candidate now
qualifies only if it is non-empty.

Remote-runner clusters:
- emitted-provenance had no rule for the gsd-hooks/ family; added two pi-scoped
  rules pointing at the same sources the existing hooks/ rules use. The table is
  total, so an unattributed family is a hard failure by design.
- pi tests in install-minimal-hooks and the install integration suite asserted
  the old layout; updated to derive the dir name from the descriptor rather than
  hardcoding either name.
- 19 unrelated-looking failures on node22 only were a leaked fs mock: t.after()
  runs in registration order, cleanup was registered before mock.restoreAll(),
  and node22's JS rimraf calls the public fs.rmdirSync while node24's native
  path does not — so the EACCES stub leaked process-wide on one lane. Restore
  now runs first.

Verified on the remote runner.

* fix(#3023): honor PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR, ack the rename ripple, fix expandTilde

pi resolves its agent dir as PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR ?? ~/<CONFIG_DIR_NAME>/agent
(packages/coding-agent/src/config.ts). GSD's pi descriptor declared an empty
configHome.env, so a user with that variable set had GSD installed where pi
never looks. Added the env name; the dot-home-nested resolver already handled
the override, so no resolver logic changed.

Also fixes expandTilde in the shared runtime-homes resolver, found while adding
that: it hardcoded os.homedir() and ignored the opts.home every caller threads,
so EVERY runtime's tilde-valued env override (claude, antigravity, windsurf, pi)
silently resolved against the real home. That is a correctness bug and a
test-escape hazard — a sandboxed test asserting on a tilde override reached the
developer's actual home directory. Now threaded through every branch; behavior
with no injected home is unchanged.

Adds the emitted-drift ack fragment for the 58 pi paths whose emitted location
moved with the rename. The provenance rules satisfy the totality gate; the
differential gate needs the ack because the hook sources are byte-unchanged —
only the installer's target directory moved. The two hook files this branch
genuinely edits stay attributed and are not double-acked.

Note on piConfig.configDir: it is read from pi's OWN installed package.json
(getPackageDir walks up from pi's __dirname), alongside piConfig.name — a
white-label setting for a redistributed pi fork, not a per-project user setting.
Documented accordingly rather than treated as an unsupported override.

Verified on the remote runner.

* fix(#3023): reject blank env overrides, pin adapter/descriptor parity

Three review findings, all fixed.

A whitespace-only config-dir override was accepted verbatim: the guard was
`if (val)`, falsy only for the empty string, so PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR='   '
resolved to a literal three-space directory name instead of falling back to the
descriptor default. Fixed across every env-consuming branch — dot-home,
dot-home-nested, all three xdg steps, and generic-agents-root — not just pi's.
Non-blank values are still never trimmed, so '~/My Agent Dir' keeps working.

pi/gsd.cjs's probe list and the descriptor were two independent sources of truth
for the bundle directory name; a future rename would have desynced them silently
and left every pi hook quiet with no error. The probe list stays deliberate — it
must resolve in a dev checkout and a half-upgraded tree, where the registry's
answer would be wrong — so this adds the parity assertion the repo's
generative-fix-divergence rule calls for: the descriptor value must be the FIRST
candidate, and the default must remain present.

Changeset body rewritten to cover the two later user-facing fixes it had not
caught up with.

Verified on the remote runner.

* chore(#3023): backfill changeset PR number

* fix(#3023): anchor injection-scan patterns and fix a macOS detection hole

CI's security job flagged CONTEXT.md:124 — pre-existing prose reading 'not the
same fact as a genuinely empty or absent one'. The match was the 'act as a'
INSIDE 'f-act as a': the pattern had no left word boundary, so any word ending
in act tripped it (fact, impact, contract, artifact, interact, redact,
abstract). My four-line CONTEXT.md edit dragged the latent false positive into
this PR because the scan is diff-scoped by file but reads whole files. Anchored
with (^|[^[:alnum:]]) rather than rewording maintainer-owned prose, which would
have left the class alive for the next PR touching any file saying 'fact as a'.

Auditing the rest of the list for the same class surfaced a real detection hole:
the eval/exec/Function patterns matched a quote via \x27, a GNU-grep-only hex
escape. BSD/macOS grep reads it as four literal characters, so single-quoted
eval('...')/exec('...') payloads were NEVER detected there while passing on
GNU-grep CI. Replaced with a literal apostrophe class.

Boundaries were added only where a real word-suffix collision exists; exec,
jailbreak, developer mode and the role-manipulation family were audited and
deliberately left unanchored. 22 new cases cover both directions — the false
positives now scan clean, and every real payload still fires, including the
quote/punctuation/start-of-line boundary forms.

Also builds this branch's injection test fixture at runtime instead of carrying
the literal phrase, so the payload keeps its teeth without tripping the scan.

Verified on the remote runner.

2061919b1a fix(#3029): remove redundant hooks declaration from plugin manifest (#3113)
* fix(#3029): remove redundant hooks declaration from plugin manifest

.claude-plugin/plugin.json declared "hooks": "./hooks/hooks.json"
explicitly. Claude Code already auto-loads hooks/hooks.json by default,
so the explicit declaration caused a duplicate-rejection that silently
disabled every hook the plugin ships — security guards, monitors,
injection scanners. The failure had no visible signal in normal use.

Removed the redundant hooks field. Updated the manifest test to assert
ABSENCE of the field and that the auto-loaded file still exists on disk.

8f75e27554 fix(#3045): fail closed when an executor dispatch drops its resolved isolation (#3069)
* feat(#3045): deny an executor dispatch that drops its isolation flag

Every isolation gate already resolved correctly. The resolved value then reached
the executor through a prose instruction telling the model to substitute it into
a call the model composes itself, and nothing verified the substitution. When it
was dropped, the executor edited and committed in the user's primary checkout
with no consent and no warning.

A prose backstop would be the same class of artifact as the defect, so this is a
shipped PreToolUse hook on the Agent tool. It fires at the instant of the call
rather than being read once at the top of a workflow, which is the only placement
the model cannot skip.

The guard is inert unless it can positively establish that this is a GSD project,
that the project resolves to harness isolation, and that the dispatch targets an
executor. A non-GSD repo has no invariant to enforce. Where it cannot read the
configuration at all, it denies rather than assuming, with its own reason -- a
guard that cannot verify must not answer safe. A malformed payload allows rather
than throwing.

* feat(#3045): extend the isolation guard to Cursor

Cursor is the second of only two runtimes that resolve harness isolation, so
shipping the guard for Claude alone left half the exposed surface unguarded while
the changeset implied it was covered.

The two runtimes fail differently. On Claude the harness flag is a per-dispatch
kwarg the model must copy into a call it composes, and the defect is that it can
be dropped. On Cursor the flag is --worktree, which applies to the whole session,
and the subagent-start payload carries no isolation field at all. There is no
flag to check, so the guard verifies the effective state instead: whether the
workspace is genuinely running outside the user's primary checkout. That is a
stronger check than the Claude one because it tests reality rather than intent,
and it is commented so nobody later rewrites it into a flag check.

Isolation is established two ways, either sufficient: the workspace resolves to a
linked git worktree, or it sits under the worktree root Cursor manages. The
second matters because a directory Cursor placed there is a legitimate isolated
session even before it becomes a distinct git worktree, where linkage alone would
report no repository.

Detecting linkage required a new primitive rather than the existing context
resolver. That resolver short-circuits on finding a local .planning directory
before it ever compares the git directory to the common one -- and an isolation
worktree normally has its own checked-out .planning. Reusing it would have read a
correctly isolated session as unisolated and denied it, which is the failure
direction that gets a guard switched off. The comparison is now its own
shortcut-free function that the resolver delegates to after its own shortcut, so
existing behavior is unchanged, and the case that would have broken is pinned.

The subagent type is checked before any configuration is read, so an unreadable
config cannot deny a dispatch this guard would never have enforced against.

The input-schema comment on the Cursor hook documented only the fields common to
every event and omitted the ones specific to this one. That omission cost a
halt during this work; it now documents both.

* fix(#3045): enforce the resolved dispatch decision, not the host capability

The guard keyed on the registry's dispatch.isolation, which says only that a
runtime is CAPABLE of harness worktrees. The decision that actually governs a
dispatch is the one the workflow resolves after gating, and that legitimately
comes out as sequential in three documented cases: a project setting
use_worktrees false, a per-plan submodule intersection, and the base-check
auto-degrade. The workflow tells the model to omit the flag in exactly those
cases, and the guard was denying every one of them.

The third case matters most. The preceding fix made the base-check degrade on
git timeouts and a missing git binary, where it had previously answered "safe".
That correction is right, and it means a transient hang now degrades to
sequential far more often than before -- so the two changes composed into a trap
where the workflow behaved exactly as designed and the guard blocked it.

The workflow already resolves isolation in shell, deterministically, which is
what makes it a trustworthy source in a way the model-authored call is not. It
now records that resolved value through a dedicated verb, and both guards read
it first. A fresh record is authoritative, so sequential dispatches pass
untouched. Absent or stale, the guards fall back to the capability check
combined with the project's use_worktrees setting, which still covers the case
that never reaches the workflow.

Also widened the matcher to accept Task alongside Agent, since a host that names
the tool Task would otherwise leave the guard silently inert while implying
coverage; stopped assuming Claude when no runtime is declared, which is the
shipped default and would have demanded a Claude-only argument elsewhere; and
made a non-git project inert rather than denied, since advising a worktree
session is not actionable without a repository.

The original diagnosis never modeled sequential mode as legitimate. That
omission is what let this through, and it is now recorded there.

* fix(#3045): record at resolution and bind the record to its dispatch

Two independent reviews converged on the same failure: the guard was fail-open in
a default install, so it did not catch the defect it exists to catch. A shipped
project carries no runtime key, which made "runtime not confidently known" the
common case rather than a corner one. A record asserting that isolation was
required but carrying no flag then fell through to a capability lookup that
answered "none", and the dispatch was allowed. The flag itself only arrived from
a second shell block -- the same block a model dropping the argument would also
skip. A test had pinned that behavior as intended.

The record is now written by the resolver, as an unavoidable consequence of
asking for the value, rather than by a step the model is told in prose to go and
run. A guard against a prose-carried value cannot itself depend on prose. Mode,
flag and identifiers are written together and atomically, so the flagless window
is gone, and a record asserting isolation with no resolvable flag now denies
instead of degrading. Runtime is also resolved from the installer's own recorded
default, which makes confident resolution the normal case.

The per-plan submodule gate degrades after the phase-level decision and never
re-recorded, so a plan that legitimately ran sequentially was denied against a
still-fresh phase record. It now records its own, scoped to the plan.

A record also authorized any dispatch for four hours. One phase degrading to
sequential could silently license an unisolated dispatch in the next. Records
now carry phase and plan, the guards require them to match, and the window is
minutes rather than hours -- the resolver rewrites it before every dispatch, so
a long window bought nothing and only widened the hole.

The flag validator rejected any value beginning with two dashes, which is exactly
the form Cursor and Windsurf declare, so their real value could never have been
stored. Writer and reader also derived the record path differently and diverged
inside a linked worktree without local planning state.

The predictable path remains a way to silence the control without leaving a trace
in the diff. It grants no access an agent with shell does not already have, so it
is documented as accepted rather than redesigned around.

* fix(#3045): correct the staleness boundary and unmask a vacuous parity test

The remote runner returned twenty failures. One was a real production defect the
boundary case existed to catch: a record whose age exactly equalled the staleness
window was treated as fresh, so it stayed authoritative for one tick past its own
expiry. Freshness is now strictly inside the window.

The parity test meant to stop the two guards' executor lists from drifting could
never have failed. Its project fixture was a bare directory rather than a
repository, so the non-git inert branch answered before the executor list was
ever consulted. It asserted agreement it never actually measured. The fixture is
now a real repository, like every sibling in the file.

A test also asserted that Windsurf declares the worktree flag. It does not --
Windsurf resolves to no isolation by design, having no named concurrent dispatch
to isolate. The test claimed a registry fact that was never true, and a comment
in the resolver repeated it. Both corrected, and the test now proves what it
should have all along: that the parser accepts any bare flag value, rather than
one runtime's supposed value.

The new guard was missing from the bundled-hook whitelist, which is the surface
that decides what actually ships, and the per-plan gate had gained calls to the
launcher without the preamble those calls require. The changeset carried
parenthetical product descriptions the purity rule forbids.

* test(#3045): make the guard tests hold on Windows

Two tests redirect HOME to control where the installer-persisted runtime default
is read from. Node resolves the home directory from USERPROFILE on Windows and
never consults HOME, so both silently read the real runner profile, found no
recorded runtime, and asserted against a project the hook had not recognised. The
production code was already correct in asking the platform rather than the
variable; only the tests were wrong to assume one variable answers everywhere.
The helpers now mirror the override onto both.

The symlink spoofing test also created a directory symlink unconditionally, which
needs elevated privileges on Windows. It survived on this runner, but it would
fail on any host without them, so the creation is now attempted and the test
skips explicitly when it cannot be done -- a bare return would have counted as a
pass and hidden the gap.

Skipping alone would have left the platform uncovered, so the behaviour it proves
is now also driven in-process through an injected realpath, following the seam
already used for the clock. That case no longer depends on privileges at all, and
the end-to-end test keeps its original assertions wherever symlinks work.

ed360cd99f chore(#2995): extend fragment emission to agents/ and reclaim size-cap headroom (#3058)
* feat(#2995): extend fragment emission to agents/ across every read point

Epic #1671 Phase 6.4. `composeWorkflow` stripped `<!-- gsd:section -->` markers
only for `gsd-core/workflows/`, so a marked agent shipped its markers verbatim
into every runtime — and agent text is loaded into a subagent's context on every
dispatch.

The issue proposed widening the `copyWithPathReplacement` guard. That is a no-op
for agents: agents never traverse that function. Agent content is read for
emission at five independent points, and the obvious chokepoint
`stageAgentsForProfile` short-circuits on the DEFAULT `full` profile
(`skills === '*'` returns the real unstaged directory), so a hook placed there is
dead code on most installs.

Composition now happens at two call sites instead of five parallel surfaces:
`stageAgentsForRuntimeWithConverter` (with `agentsKind` and `kimiAgentsKind`
routed through it via an identity converter) and the inline agent loop in
bin/install.js. Both compose BEFORE any path rewrite, so a `.claude/` ->
`.windsurf/` regex can never reach inside a marker attribute — the ordering
#2930 established for workflows.

`installCodexConfig` was the fifth read point: Codex embeds each agent's prompt
into a per-agent `.toml` via its own readFileSync. Call-graph analysis missed it;
the exhaustive per-runtime emission sweep found it. That is why the new guard is
behavioral rather than structural — a sixth read point fails the sweep without
anyone remembering to extend a list.

tests/agent-fragments-emission.install.test.cjs spawns a real installer for every
runtime at every agent-bearing scope, derived from RUNTIME_META and the
capability registry at run time so a new runtime cannot be silently
under-covered. It asserts markers are absent AND the `when="always"` body is
retained, so marker-absence cannot be satisfied by dropping content. An
identity-composer negative control proves the assertion can fail.

Verified: 0 install failures, 0 marker leaks, body retained on 27 runtime/scope
paths; red before the wiring on claude(global+local), zcode(global+local),
kimi, codex and opencode.

Refs #2995

* chore(#2995): give the tightest agents headroom and correct the design lock

Epic #1671 Phase 6.4, second half.

`agents/gsd-verifier.md` had 12 bytes of headroom under its 49,152-byte LARGE
cap and `agents/gsd-debugger.md` had 147 under its 57,344-byte XL cap. Both now
extract reference material to `gsd-core/references/` behind an @-reference — the
documented DEFECT.AGENT-FILE-SIZE-CAP-BREACH remedy:

  gsd-verifier  49,140 -> 46,371 B   headroom    12 -> 2,781
  gsd-debugger  57,197 -> 48,851 B   headroom   147 -> 8,493

Byte accounting proves no content was lost: the combined agent+reference delta
is exactly the new files' headers plus the agents' slim replacement blocks. Each
agent keeps its routing table and a one-line summary per entry, so it degrades
gracefully on a runtime that does not inline @-references.

`agents/gsd-planner.md` is untouched and still passes both char guards
(49,130 < 49,152); it needed no change, so it took none.

The other nine LARGE/XL agents carry NO gsd:section markers, and that is
deliberate, not deferred. `when=` selection is read from
gsd-core/workflows/section-manifest.json, which gen-section-manifest.cjs derives
from gsd-core/workflows/*.md only — shape `{workflows: ...}`, no per-agent key,
no per-agent init entry point. An agent atom therefore fails admission gate (2)
("a fact the init seam demonstrably computes at a real entry point") and would
evaluate false forever while looking like working gating. Marking agents would
manufacture exactly the silent-inertness rot the frozen vocabulary exists to
prevent.

ADR-1671 gains three amendments, two of which close gaps /adr-phase-coverage
found against what actually merged:

  - The 19 -> 29 vocabulary widening shipped in #2994 with no coordinated ADR
    amendment, which that bullet's own rule forbids. Recorded now.
  - `flag:--verify-only` was one of six atoms #2992 withheld and deferred to
    "the LARGE/XL rollout phase". Five shipped; this one is permanently
    rejected, and that disposition lived only in a merged PR body.
  - Phase 6.4's own finding: emission extends to agents/, gating does not.

CONTEXT.md's glossary was stale on both seams — Workflow Fragments Module still
listed the original 4-atom vocabulary and described when= as "not yet acted on",
and Section Manifest Module still described InvocationFacts as
{waveFlag, phaseNumber, hasPriorPhases}. Both now match the shipped contract.

Inventory manifest regenerated AFTER build:lib per the documented ordering
landmine; 19 install-tree fixtures pick up the two new references.

Refs #2995

* chore(#2995): correct the compose-site count and mark the raw stager

Self-review found two comment defects in the prior commit. The agentsKind
comment claimed composition lands at TWO call sites; it is three, since
installCodexConfig's per-agent .toml writer was added after that comment was
written. And stageAgentsForProfile is now production-dead — both callers route
through the composing stager — while staying exported and unit-tested, which
makes it a trap: it does a raw copyFileSync and short-circuits to the unstaged
source directory under the default profile, so a future caller would silently
reintroduce the marker-shipping path. Its JSDoc now says so.

* test(#2995): guard the marker-documenting-doc class for agents

Widening the composer's scope to agents/ makes reachable the exact class #2930
narrowed scope to avoid: a file that DOCUMENTS the marker syntax with an
unfenced example is indistinguishable from a real marker, so the composer drops
that line from the emitted artifact.

Three rows. A fenced example must compose byte-identically. No shipped agent may
carry a marker outside a fence — asserted by parsing every real agent and
requiring zero explicit sections, which is what makes the fence protection
load-bearing rather than decorative. And a non-vacuity row asserts an UNFENCED
marker IS parsed as a real marker, so if that ever stops being true the second
row is guarding nothing.

Also applies two review findings: stageAgentsForProfile's new JSDoc claimed it
had no production caller, which is false — bin/install.js's _stageAgents still
calls it, and its consumers compose before writing. Corrected to state the
invariant instead. And a let/const nit in the emission sweep.

* fix(#2995): keep verifier status vocabulary in the agent, fix a wrong fixture

The first remote run came back red with three failures. Both root causes were
mine.

1. tests/agent-frontmatter.test.cjs requires agents/gsd-verifier.md to literally
   contain HOLLOW and DISCONNECTED. The Step 4b extraction moved that status
   vocabulary into gsd-core/references/verifier-wiring-patterns.md, so the agent
   no longer had it.

   Byte accounting said no content was lost, and byte-wise that was true — but a
   contract required those tokens to live IN THE AGENT. That is ADR-1671:66's
   flexReserve floor stated concretely: a load-bearing fragment must not be
   trimmed out of its host, and "the bytes still exist somewhere" is not the
   test. The two status tables are restored to the agent and deliberately
   mirrored in the reference with a note saying so, so the procedure there still
   reads standalone. gsd-verifier lands at 47,069 B — headroom 12 -> 2,083,
   rather than the 2,781 the first attempt claimed.

2. Row 12b of the new marker-documentation guard asserted that an unfenced
   marker example parses as a real marker, and threw instead:
   "unmatched /gsd:section close marker". The grammar is WHOLE-LINE only. The
   fixture had put the OPEN marker inline mid-sentence, so it was correctly not
   recognised as an open while the close, on its own line, was.

   That is a real refinement of the hazard this guard exists for: only a marker
   on its OWN line is mis-parsed — which is exactly how a documentation example
   is normally written. Row 12b now uses a whole-line marker, and a new row 12c
   pins the inline case as explicitly NOT a marker.

No test was weakened to accommodate the change; the change was corrected to
satisfy the tests.

ff4a57b78c chore(#1671): migrate the remaining 13 LARGE/XL workflows to the fragment model — Phase 6.3 (#3030)
* chore(#2994): fragmentize progress.md forensic audit onto the fragment model

Extract the --forensic-gated forensic_audit step to
workflows/progress/steps/forensic-audit.md behind a section marker, and
repair progress.md's init line to forward --forensic so the atom is
actually true in production rather than only under direct CLI tests.

progress.md shrinks 32630 -> 27207 bytes.

* chore(#2994): fragmentize the four manifest-wired workflows

new-project, quick, new-milestone and progress each already had a
dedicated cmdInit* entry point but zero marked sections. Extract nine
gated bodies to workflows/<wf>/steps/ behind section markers and repair
each init line to forward its flags.

Fold --full into the discuss/research/validate facts inside cmdInitQuick
so the when= grammar never sees an OR, per the chunked-mode precedent.

Fixes found while working, per the no-defer rule:
- cmdInitProgress passed no phase info to buildSectionManifestField, so
  state:phase-mvp-mode was permanently false — an atom in the vocabulary
  whose fact could never be computed.
- the quick init router folded flag tokens into the free-text
  description, which the new forwarding would have corrupted.
- a #2508 dispatch note was nested inside quick.md's Agent(prompt=)
  fence, leaking orchestrator guidance into the subagent prompt.
- progress.md had a 3-vs-4 backtick outer-fence imbalance.

* chore(#2994): fragmentize verify-work.md and admit state:ui-phase-active

Wire cmdInitVerifyWork to buildSectionManifestField — it was a dedicated
entry point that never emitted a manifest — and mark two sections.

state:ui-phase-active folds (plan:pre hooks include an active ui step) OR
(the phase dir holds a *-UI-SPEC.md) into one boolean in init.cts, so the
grammar still sees a single operator-free atom. The inner Playwright-MCP
check stays as prose inside the fragment: it is live session state and no
init seam can precompute it.

The MVP false-branch note is a real fallback, not redundant prose, so it
sits outside the marker — gating it away would delete the text needed
precisely when MVP mode is off.

* test(#2994): follow moved workflow content in drift guards

Retarget every guard that asserted on content this branch moved into
workflows/<wf>/steps/, mirroring 815b3d897. Each retargeted assertion was
verified to still fail when its step file is blanked, so none was
weakened into vacuity.

Three assertions in verify-mvp-uat were genuinely red. Three more were
worse than red — passing for the wrong reason:
- quick-commit-boundary and worktree-cleanup anchored on indexOf('Step
  5.6'), which matched a later cross-reference and sliced 16069 chars
  that coincidentally held the asserted substrings. Replaced with an
  expandWorkflowSections helper that splices step content back in place.
- phase6-review-capabilities lost its end boundary and widened to EOF.
- playwright-ui-verify matched 'UI' in an unrelated bullet and 'fall
  back' in a subagent-dispatch line after the real content moved.

* chore(#2994): fragmentize code-review and complete-milestone, admit three atoms

Add dedicated cmdInitCodeReview and cmdInitCompleteMilestone entry points
alongside the shared generic ones rather than modifying them — init.phase-op
and init.manager carry a CRITICAL blast radius (179 dependents, 24
processes) and stay byte-identical for their other callers.

Admit flag:--fix, state:fallow-enabled and state:git-create-tag, each with
a consuming section and a fact its own entry point computes.

Both sections had the resolver-in-body hazard: the fallow config-gate and
the git.create_tag check each sat inside the very block being gated, so
gating would have disabled the resolver that decides the gate. Both are
hoisted into init and the bodies now consume the resolved fact.

* test(#2994): retarget code-review and milestone drift guards, fix two red tests

Retarget guards that asserted on content moved into steps/, proving
non-vacuity by blanking each step file and confirming failure.

Also fixes two genuinely red tests found while working, per the no-defer
rule:
- workflow-fragments' frozen-vocabulary lock was missing
  state:ui-phase-active, so commit 7ef7f8336 shipped red. Lint and build
  both passed over it, which is why neither is sufficient verification.
- code-review's quick.md capability-hook assertion carried a stale
  delimiter after the 18ff35d20 extraction.

* chore(#2994): fragmentize autonomous.md and admit state:plan-strategy-converge

Five sections share one atom, the pattern plan-phase already uses for
flag:--research-phase. The atom folds --converge OR --cross-ai into a
single boolean in cmdInitAutonomous so the grammar stays operator-free.

cmdInitAutonomous is additive; init.milestone-op, init.manager and
init.phase-op are untouched and still consumed. The $PLAN_STRATEGY bash
resolver is deliberately retained — ungated local-planning bullets still
read it, so the init-side fact supplements it rather than replacing it.

converge-fail-fast required splitting one bash fence so the always-run
CONVERGENCE_ARGS construction stays outside the marker. All three
flag-absent fallbacks were left outside their markers.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* chore(#2994): fragmentize review and discuss-phase-assumptions

Admit state:reviewer-instances-configured (two peripheral notes share it;
the core reviewer-lane dispatch stays unmarked — it is the workflow's
primary always-evaluated logic, not an optional branch) and
state:auto-advance-active, which folds --auto OR two config keys into one
boolean so the grammar stays operator-free.

discuss-phase-assumptions was the highest-risk edit in this PR. Its
auto_advance step is a full if/elif/else; gating it whole would have
deleted the flag-absent fallback needed exactly when --auto is off. Split
verified exact: resolvers 636-651 and the 'End here' fallback 668-669 both
stay outside the marker; only 653-667 is gated.

Adds emitted-drift acks for the two files that grew — review.md (+55 B)
and autonomous.md (+737 B from 80799211c, which had none and would have
red-gated the push.

* chore(#2994): fragmentize docs-update, update, transition and new-milestone Part A

Completes the 13-workflow rollout. Three of these had no init call at all
and gained a dedicated entry point plus their first gsd_run query line.

Admits state:is-monorepo and adds state:next-channel, state:workstream-active
and state:flat-mode. Vocabulary 26 -> 30 atoms.

Part A of new-milestone applies when NO workstream is active — the negation
of state:workstream-active. Rather than teach the grammar negation, which is
the Greenspun drift the frozen list exists to prevent, it gets a separate
positively-phrased atom whose fact is the inverse. Part B, which always runs,
stays outside the marker.

flag:--verify-only is deliberately NOT admitted: docs-update has no
contiguous purely-additive region for it, and an atom without a consuming
section is dead vocabulary. Evidence recorded in the slice report.

update.md reuses its existing resolved $GSD_TOOLS rather than prepending the
canonical preamble, which would have clobbered it.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(#2994): stop automated-ui-verification re-resolving its own gate, retire dead vocabulary

Two defects the new tests caught.

The automated-ui-verification step re-ran gsd_run loop render-hooks and
recomputed UI_PHASE_ACTIVE inside a body that is only read when that fact
is already true — the circular self-disabling pattern this design forbids,
introduced by 3c654b168. cmdInitVerifyWork now exposes ui_phase_active and
the step consumes it. Its launcher preamble goes too: no gsd_run remains.
The Playwright-MCP check stays as prose — that is live session state.

Dead vocabulary predating this PR: flag:--full and state:needs-codebase-map
were admitted with a gate-1 claim that never materialized. flag:--full is
removed, redundant once quick folds it into discuss/research/validate.
state:needs-codebase-map gets the real consumer it always lacked, gating
new-project's codebase-map offer. Vocabulary 30 -> 29, and no atom is now
without a consuming section.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(#2994): add the atom-admission, inversion and resolver-hoist gates

The two existing parity guards prove vocabulary/predicate symmetry but
never that a fact is computed — an atom no cmdInit* assembles evaluates
false forever. These close that hole:

- per-atom satisfiability for all 29 atoms, plus an anti-vacuity assertion
  so the loop cannot silently cover zero atoms
- dead-vocabulary check against the shipped manifest
- inversion guard: the flag-absent fallbacks in discuss-phase-assumptions
  and verify-work must stay outside their markers
- data-driven resolver-hoist guard over the shipped manifest, so a future
  extraction cannot reintroduce the circular class
- compound-fold coverage (--full, --cross-ai, --rc, config-only --auto)
- null-vs-[] degraded/computed distinction, and flag value shapes

Also repairs the frozen-vocabulary lock, which was stale and red for the
seven atoms earlier commits on this branch shipped.

* fix(#2994): dedupe the phase-fallback block and harden --ws parsing

Review findings.

MAJOR: the three new init entry points each pasted a verbatim copy of the
guardedFindPhase/guardedGetRoadmapPhase fallback, taking the repo from four
copies to seven — DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX. Extracted applyRoadmapFallback and
folded six of the seven; each call site keeps its own field-set via a
closure. Duplication removed rather than papered over with a parity test.
cmdInitPhaseOp stays out: its fallback omits has_reviews, so it is not a
byte-identical copy, and it is CRITICAL-radius.

LOW, pre-existing: GSD_WS captured [^[:space:]]+ and expands unquoted, so a
workstream name holding glob metacharacters would expand against the
filesystem. Narrowed to [A-Za-z0-9._-]+. The unquoted expansion is kept —
it must word-split into two args and vanish when empty.

Also restores the vocabulary ordering convention, and fixes a masked test
bug the mandated run surfaced: the flag-forwarding guard checked only the
first init line per workflow, but new-milestone has two, so a real failure
was reporting exit 0.

* fix(#2994): drop the stale new-milestone emitted-drift ack

new-milestone.md was acked for a +406 B growth measured against an
intermediate commit. Net against origin/next it SHRANK by 8 bytes, so
nothing needed the ack and it explained nothing — which the differential
attribution check reports as a stale acknowledgment, not a pass.

update.md's entry stays: it genuinely grew +703 B.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(#2994): resolve the 15 failures from the full matrix run

All 15 were real and identical on both lanes.

REAL REGRESSION: autonomous.md hit 41479 chars against the #2196 guard's
40960 cap — a CHARS cap distinct from the LARGE tier byte cap, which the
five section stubs pushed it over. Extracted the 3a.5 UI Design Contract
body to references/; now 39968 chars, and the file nets -795 B vs base, so
its growth ack is deleted rather than left stale.

REAL DEFECT: docs referenced /gsd-transition, which is not a live
registered command. Reworded.

STALE FIXTURE: the emission byte-identity test hardcoded two marked
workflows; this branch legitimately marks fifteen. Fixture corrected — the
source was right.

The rest were drift guards over the eight workflows the earlier sweep did
not cover, retargeted at where the content now lives with non-vacuity
proven by blanking each step file and confirming failure. The GSD_WS
forwarding guard was checked as a possible real break and is not one: the
charclass narrowing is intact and forwarding works end to end.

* fix(#2994): drop the ack for a newly-added reference file

A new file's emitted ripple is attributable to the diff that adds it, so
the acknowledgment explained nothing and the differential check reports it
as stale. Removing the last entry removes the fragment — an empty one
signals nothing.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(#2994): retarget the UI-contract guards and clear two transitive advisories

The §3a.5 extraction that brought autonomous.md under the #2196 char cap
moved its body to references/autonomous-ui-design-contract.md, so ten
guards in autonomous-ui-steps and check-ui-safety-gate were asserting it
against the host. Retargeted via a combined read, each proven non-vacuous
by blanking the reference file and confirming failure.

This class had already bitten twice on this branch because each sweep was
scoped to the workflows touched at that moment, so this one was
exhaustive: ~70 test files across all 13 workflows, zero further broken or
vacuous assertions found.

Also clears two high transitive advisories the matrix flagged on one lane
— fast-uri GHSA-7p8r-x3mc-p8w7 and three ip-address SSRF/trust-boundary
issues. Both pre-date this branch: package-lock.json was untouched until
now, so the production tree was byte-identical to the base. Lockfile-only,
package.json unchanged, verified against a real npm ci install.

c6ce4d1d9a fix(#2755): resolve the kimi hooks-TOML root per runtime (#3032)
* test(#2755): failing-first coverage for per-runtime kimi hooks root

Install/uninstall filesystem-shape rows over a sandbox HOME (no permission
tricks) plus resolver unit rows. Covers both uninstall directions, which is
where a fix applied only to the install call site would drift.

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

* fix(#2755): resolve the kimi hooks-TOML root per runtime

resolveKimiHooksTomlDir took no runtime argument and hardcoded ~/.kimi, but
both kimi and kimi-code route through the single hooksSurface=kimi-hooks-toml
branch. A --kimi-code install therefore wrote its [[hooks]] block, hook bundle
and CommonJS marker into Kimi CLI's config file, and a --kimi-code uninstall
stripped Kimi CLI's block.

Adds a runtime selector to the resolver -- kimi keeps ~/.kimi + KIMI_SHARE_DIR,
kimi-code gets ~/.kimi-code + KIMI_CODE_HOME, per Kimi Code's own upstream
data-locations and hooks docs -- and passes the runtime at both the install and
uninstall call sites. An omitted or unrecognized runtime still resolves ~/.kimi,
so the exported no-arg contract is unchanged.

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

* test(#2755): use centralized helpers and add a divergence guard

Review findings, all fixed in-PR:

- The new test block reimplemented runMinimalInstall, createTempDir and
  toPosixPath. Extends runMinimalInstall with optional root/extraEnv instead
  (back-compat: every existing caller passes neither) and uses the centralized
  helpers, per CONTRIBUTING's Use Centralized Test Helpers rule.

- Adds a parity assertion between the capability registry and the resolver: a
  third runtime declaring hooksSurface kimi-hooks-toml would silently inherit
  ~/.kimi, re-creating this very defect. The guard fires the moment those two
  surfaces drift.

- Adds an installer-level test proving KIMI_SHARE_DIR and KIMI_CODE_HOME do not
  interfere when both are set, which only the resolver unit covered before.

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

* test(#2755): track the kimi-code hooks root in the emitted-artifact gates

The remote runner caught a real ripple: moving kimi-code hooks to ~/.kimi-code
made 31 emitted paths unattributable and 58 emitted hashes unexplained, because
three parallel surfaces keyed on the literal .kimi path.

- HOOK_CONFIG_RELATIVE_PATHS excluded only .kimi/config.toml, so kimi-code's
  config.toml became manifest-visible; it embeds a platform-varying node-runner
  command and must stay out for both products.
- HOOKS_ROOTS, the package.json-marker branch and the synthesized-install-metadata
  pattern each named .kimi only.
- tests/fixtures/install-tree/kimi-code.json still recorded the old paths;
  regenerated via gen:install-tree.

Adds the per-PR drift acknowledgment for the 58 paths whose bytes are unchanged
but whose destination moved - a ripple no source diff can show, since no hook
script was edited.

* fix(#2755): clear production-tree security advisories

The remote runner's npm-integrity gate reported 2 high advisories in the
production dependency tree. My diff touches neither package.json nor
package-lock.json, so these come from the base -- but a red gate is not
something to wave off as pre-existing, so it is fixed here rather than deferred.

Lockfile-only, semver-in-range, via npm audit fix:
  fast-uri   3.1.4  -> 3.1.5   (host confusion via backslash authority introducer)
  ip-address 10.2.0 -> 10.4.0  (three SSRF / trust-boundary bypasses)
  hono       4.12.31 -> 4.13.0 (moderate; reverting it traded a high for a
                                moderate, so the full remedy is taken)

npm audit now reports 0 vulnerabilities at every severity, npm ci installs
clean from the updated lockfile, and the build and the kimi behavior both
re-verified afterwards.

067a4d1c6c fix(#2650): bound and auto-recover plan-phase planner/plan-checker stalls (#3015)
* test(#2650): add failing-first regression for plan-phase stall detection

Regression test for gsd_stall_should_recover / gsd_stall_watch and the
planner.stall_* config keys, none of which exist yet — proves RED before
the fix lands in the next commit.

* fix(#2650): bound and auto-recover plan-phase planner/plan-checker stalls

Mirrors the already-shipped executor.stall_* pattern (execute-phase.md, bug
#3212) but with a dispatch change the executor's prose-only surveillance
lacks: the standard planner spawn, chunked-outline planner spawn,
chunked-per-plan planner spawn, plan-checker spawn, and revision-loop
planner respawn now dispatch with run_in_background=true and are followed
by a real, bounded bash poll (gsd_stall_watch) that returns control to the
orchestrator on its own schedule instead of waiting indefinitely on a
subagent that may never return. On stall, the existing accept-plans/retry/
stop recovery menu (9a/11a) is auto-surfaced instead of requiring a manual
interrupt.

New config keys planner.stall_detect_interval_minutes (default 5) /
planner.stall_threshold_minutes (default 10) mirror executor.stall_*.

The helper functions (gsd_stall_should_recover, gsd_stall_watch) live in a
new lazily-loaded gsd-core/workflows/plan-phase/steps/stall-detection-
helpers.md rather than inline, and per-site prose is kept minimal, because
plan-phase.md is frozen under the ADR-857 Phase 6 PRE_PHASE6 gate
(tests/phase6-capstone-conformance.test.cjs) with ~36 bytes of headroom at
baseline; the net effect is plan-phase.md.md ships slightly SMALLER than
before (the old unconditional-wait ORCHESTRATOR RULE sentences are gone at
the five touched sites, superseded by the bounded watcher).

Also fixes a stale doc comment in tests/workflow-size-budget.test.cjs that
still described the per-file workflow-size-baseline.json guard removed by
#2724 (ADR-2719 Phase 4) as if it were still the enforcement mechanism —
discovered while verifying this fix's own byte budget.

Researcher and pattern-mapper spawns are untouched (out of scope per the
issue's Agent Brief).

* fix(#2650): make gsd_stall_watch single-cycle; harden numeric config inputs

Two review findings addressed on top of the prior commit:

1. gsd_stall_watch previously looped internally for the full
   threshold+interval duration inside ONE Bash tool call (up to 15 min at
   defaults) — a single call blocking that long risks the host tool's own
   timeout killing it before it ever prints a result, silently defeating the
   fix. Redesigned to a single sleep-and-check cycle per call, taking an
   explicit dispatch_ts so the orchestrator prose can repeat the (short,
   default 5 min) call until it resolves; the outer threshold is now
   enforced by dispatch_ts accumulating across calls, not by one call's
   duration. Documented the resulting trade-off (up to one interval of
   added latency on the success path) in the changeset and reference doc.

2. PLANNER_STALL_INTERVAL_MINUTES/THRESHOLD_MINUTES are config-controlled
   values that flow into bash arithmetic ($(( ))). A review flagged this as
   command injection; empirically verified against both macOS bash 3.2.57
   and Docker bash:5 that this is NOT actually exploitable (bash hard-errors
   on a `$(cmd)`-shaped arithmetic operand rather than invoking it) — but an
   unvalidated malformed value WOULD abort the stall-watcher itself with
   that bash error, silently defeating the exact hang-recovery this issue
   ships. Added integer validation with safe-default fallback, both at the
   config-resolution point and defensively inside gsd_stall_should_recover.

Also adds the previously-missing integration coverage for gsd_stall_watch's
real execution (grep/find/date plumbing), not just the pure classifier.

* fix(#2650): correct AC2 self-test — helpers doc may name teams-status in prose

The AC2 regression test asserted the stall-detection-helpers.md step file
never contains the substring "teams-status" at all, but the file's own
prose explicitly documents its independence from that guard (containing
the word by design). Narrowed the assertion to what actually matters: no
second `query teams-status` call site and no gating on it, not a blanket
absence of the word.

* test(#2650): regenerate golden install-tree fixtures for the new step file

gsd-core/workflows/plan-phase/steps/stall-detection-helpers.md is an
emitted file (installed for every runtime), so adding it changes the
install tree even though it is invisible to docs/INVENTORY.md and
docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json (both explicitly scope to non-recursive
gsd-core/workflows/*.md — verified against the execute-phase #2930 and
pre-existing plan-phase step-file precedent, which are equally absent from
both inventory artifacts). The golden install tree snapshots the sorted
list of emitted relative paths per runtime, so a file invisible to the
inventory is still visible here. Regenerated via `npm run gen:install-tree`
— one line added per runtime fixture (19 files), no other drift.

* fix(#2650): restore 7 ORCHESTRATOR RULE labels; sync runtime-launcher preamble

Two more consequences of extracting helper bodies out of plan-phase.md,
both caught by verification (0017e1a78, 9 unique failures):

1. tests/plan-phase-drift-guard.test.cjs (#913) requires at least 7
   "ORCHESTRATOR RULE — ALL RUNTIMES" labels in plan-phase.md itself, one
   per agent spawn site. Moving the full explanatory blocks to
   plan-phase/steps/stall-detection-helpers.md carried 5 of the 7 labels
   out with them (only the untouched researcher/pattern-mapper sites kept
   theirs). Restored a short label at each of the 5 stall-watch sites,
   trimmed a few more redundant words ("Per 7.99, " — already established
   by the adjacent step-7.99 pointer) to stay under the frozen
   PRE_PHASE6 cap (94497 bytes, 21 bytes headroom).

2. tests/runtime-launcher-parity.test.cjs (#373) requires exactly one
   canonical gsd_run preamble, byte-equal to
   gsd-core/workflows/_runtime-launcher.snippet.sh, before the first
   gsd_run call in any workflow .md that calls it (recursive scan under
   gsd-core/workflows/, unlike the non-recursive inventory/step-tag-balance
   checks). The new step file's config-get calls use gsd_run without one.
   Fixed via `node scripts/sync-runtime-launcher.cjs`, verified: exactly 1
   preamble occurrence, before the first call, including the .claude/ and
   .codex/ home fallback arms.

Also verified (no fix needed, evidence recorded): the generic
`gsd-core-verbatim` identity rule in tests/helpers/emitted-provenance.cjs
(roots: ['gsd-core'], pattern matching workflows/.+) self-attributes any
new gsd-core/workflows/** path to itself, so the new step file needs no
drift-ack entry — consistent with plan-phase.md's own net shrinkage
requiring none either.

* test(#2650): acknowledge plan-phase.md's +14 byte drift

Restoring the 5 ORCHESTRATOR RULE — ALL RUNTIMES labels (#913) flipped
plan-phase.md from -142 bytes (post-extraction) to +14 bytes net growth
against baseline (94483 -> 94497), which the differential attribution
size ratchet (tests/emitted-attribution.test.cjs) correctly flags as
unacknowledged growth. Added tests/emitted-drift-acks/2650-plan-phase-
stall-detection.json, keyed on the bare filename plan-phase.md per the
existing fragment schema (see tests/emitted-drift-acks/2649-diagnose-
execute-plan-base-check.json), explaining the growth as exactly the 5
restored labels — still verified under the PRE_PHASE6 cap (94497 < 94519)
and satisfying #913's 7-label requirement.

* fix(#2650): bind {outputFile} from the real Agent() return — was dead code

Independent review blocker: PLANNER_OUTPUT_FILE/CHECKER_OUTPUT_FILE were
read by every gsd_stall_watch call but never assigned anywhere in the
diff. With the variable permanently empty, `[ -f "$output_file" ]` was
always false, marker_found could never become true, and marker_received
was unreachable — the marker-based detection path was permanently dead.

Worse for the plan-checker spawn specifically: a checker that PASSES
touches no *-PLAN.md files, so it had no working completion signal at
all without the marker path. A healthy plan-checker finishing cleanly in
two minutes would be declared stalled once planner.stall_threshold_minutes
elapsed and the recovery menu would fire on an already-succeeded agent —
worse than the original unbounded hang.

Fixed by replacing the dead bash variable with the `{outputFile}`
orchestrator-substitution token, the same convention docs-update.md:471
already uses for a real run_in_background=true Agent() return ("Read
tool: file_path: `{outputFile from README agent result}`"). This is a
net BYTE SAVING at each site (`"{outputFile}"` is shorter than
`"$PLANNER_OUTPUT_FILE"`), which funded moving the full binding
explanation — including why plan-checker's *-PLAN.md glob alone is not
a working completion signal — into the lazily-loaded reference file to
stay under the frozen PRE_PHASE6 cap (94496 bytes, 22 headroom; net +13
over baseline, acknowledged in tests/emitted-drift-acks/2650-plan-phase-
stall-detection.json).

Added a regression test asserting plan-phase.md itself binds {outputFile}
at all 5 spawn sites and contains no dangling $PLANNER_OUTPUT_FILE /
$CHECKER_OUTPUT_FILE reference — the previous test suite only exercised
gsd_stall_watch's behavior when handed a valid argument, which is why
the dead production wiring survived two rounds of review. Also fixed
tests/fix-2650-plan-phase-stall-detection.test.cjs:170-195's raw
try/finally to use t.after(), per CONTRIBUTING's test-cleanup convention.

* chore(#2650): backfill changeset PR number to 3015

* fix: normalize CRLF at the read boundary in all .md-bash-extraction tests

Maintainer-authorized scope expansion, folded into this PR rather than
deferred: the Windows CI lane on this PR's own tests/fix-2650-plan-phase-
stall-detection.test.cjs exposed DEFECT.TEST-SHELL-PIPELINE-NONPORTABLE
(CONTEXT.md; recurring since #1700) as a repo-wide latent class, not a
one-off. Ten test files parse a fenced ```bash block out of a workflow
.md file and execute it via spawnSync/execFileSync; a Windows checkout
can yield CRLF line endings despite .gitattributes eol=lf, and bash then
treats the trailing \r on every extracted line as part of the token —
"unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'" or a bare syntax error,
partway through the script.

Added tests/helpers.cjs:readFileNormalized() — strips \r\n -> \n at the
read boundary, before any fence-slicing or regex runs, so every
downstream operation is correct by construction. Migrated all ten call
sites to it:

Previously broken (fs.readFileSync with no normalization anywhere
between read and spawn):
- tests/worktree-cleanup.test.cjs (extractCwdGuardBash) — also fixes a
  misleading comment claiming the fence regex alone was "CRLF-safe"; it
  protected only the fence delimiters, never the captured body.
- tests/new-milestone-clear-phases.test.cjs (extractFenceBetween,
  extractFenceContaining)
- tests/code-review-pipeline-regression.test.cjs (extractPostProcessingScript)
- tests/drift-detection.test.cjs (readGate/bashBlock, plus the snippet-file
  comparison read in the same test)
- tests/graphify-visualization.test.cjs (extractStep3Block)
- tests/pause-work-improvements.test.cjs (extractCheckBlock)
- tests/plan-review-convergence.test.cjs (extractReviewerFlagsParseBlock
  and the inline post-config-gate resolution-block slices)

Already correct (split(/\r?\n/) then join('\n')), migrated to the shared
helper for consistency rather than a fourth/fifth/sixth copy of the same
fix:
- tests/git-base-branch.test.cjs (extractHandleBranchingBash)
- tests/quick-branching.test.cjs (extractStep25Bash)
- tests/runtime-launcher-parity.test.cjs (extractResolverSnippet)

Verified against a simulated Windows CRLF checkout (not assumed): for
both the worktree-cleanup.test.cjs and new-milestone-clear-phases.test.cjs
extraction shapes, confirmed the pre-fix code produces a real bash syntax
error on CRLF input and the post-fix code does not.

One eslint follow-up: local/no-crlf-fragile-split statically flags any
bare `\n` inside a markdown-fence-shaped regex, regardless of whether the
receiver was already normalized — it cannot see the readFileNormalized()
data-flow. Kept `\r?\n` in extractCwdGuardBash's fence regex (redundant
but harmless on pre-normalized input) rather than fight the rule.

Scope note: this diff is broader than issue #2650's own change (plan-
phase.md stall detection) because the Windows lane surfaced a genuine
repo-wide defect class while verifying that fix, and the maintainer
authorized fixing it here rather than filing it separately and shipping
a known-broken pattern.

Runtime impact: none — this is a test-harness-only defect. The live
orchestrator (Claude Code or another runtime) does not do a byte-exact
extract-and-pipe of .md content into a shell the way these tests do; it
reads the instructions and generates its own bash invocation text, which
does not reproduce a raw CRLF pass-through the same way.

Not touched: tests/plan-review-convergence.test.cjs's separate, tracked
spawnSync ETIMEDOUT flake under bench load (#3005, reproduced on
unmodified next) — unrelated load-sensitivity, not a CRLF symptom.

* fix(#2650): remove stale drift-ack fragment — plan-phase.md is self-explaining

tests/emitted-drift-acks/2650-plan-phase-stall-detection.json acknowledged
plan-phase.md's own emitted-path hash move, but plan-phase.md is directly
edited in this diff. Per the emitted-attribution law (ADR-2719,
tests/emitted-attribution.test.cjs), a workflow's emitted key equals its
own source path (gsd-core-verbatim identity rule), so a direct edit to the
source is self-explaining and auto-attributed — no ack was ever needed.

Verified via the pre-merge lint (scripts/lint-emitted-drift-ack.cjs, run
through npm run lint:ci with a fully cleared eslint cache): it passes clean
with the fragment removed, confirming no contradiction between the lint and
the runtime attribution gate — this was simply an unnecessary fragment.

* fix(#2650): restore plan-phase.md drift-ack — size ratchet demands it against next

tests/emitted-drift-acks/2650-plan-phase-stall-detection.json was deleted in
the previous commit because, against an earlier verification base, it was
inert: it explained a moved emitted hash that a direct edit to plan-phase.md
already self-attributes. Against origin/next@f1af47766a the demand is
different: plan-phase.md is 13 bytes larger than the base copy, which trips
the emitted-attribution size ratchet — a job this same ack also performs.

Recreated in the documented shape, keyed on the bare filename plan-phase.md
(not the full path, and not restating the byte delta per review guidance),
describing the actual change: the {outputFile} binding fix for the dead
PLANNER_OUTPUT_FILE/CHECKER_OUTPUT_FILE variables and the 5 restored
ORCHESTRATOR RULE labels required by #913, both at the stall-watch spawn
sites, with explanatory bodies living in the lazily-loaded
gsd-core/workflows/plan-phase/steps/stall-detection-helpers.md reference.

Confirmed no other fragment (on this branch or on next) claims the bare key
"plan-phase.md" before recreating — scripts/lint-emitted-drift-ack.cjs's
duplicate check is an exact string match, and the only other mention of
plan-phase.md in tests/emitted-drift-acks/ (2658-trae-instruction-file-path.json)
uses the full path as its key, so there is no collision.

* fix(#2650): real cause of Windows CI failure — bash -c argv-transport, not CRLF

The CRLF diagnosis for PR #3015's Windows failure was wrong. Proven wrong,
not assumed: .gitattributes' blanket `* text=auto eol=lf` means a Windows
checkout never receives CRLF for stall-detection-helpers.md, and the
extracted fence's line 64 is byte-identical and correctly balanced on every
platform. The real cause: runShouldRecover() passed a 70+ line, quote-dense
script as ONE argv element to `spawnSync('bash', ['-c', script, arg0, ...])`
PLUS four more positional args. Windows has no execve — Node serializes
that whole argv into a single CreateProcess command-line string, and Git
Bash's MSYS layer re-splits and unescapes it with its own rules. The
boundary between the script and the trailing args was not stable across
that round trip (live evidence: one failure's stderr was prefixed
`gsd_stall_should_recover_test:` — arg0 arrived — another `/usr/bin/bash:`
— arg0 did not).

Fixed by writing the script to a temp file and running `bash <file> <args>`
instead — the four values are now normal, quote-free positional args, and
the script itself never enters argv transport at all. Mirrors
tests/quick-branching.test.cjs's extractStep25Bash/runStep, which already
uses this exact shape and is green on Windows on `next`.
tests/worktree-cleanup.test.cjs's extractCwdGuardBash/runGuard stays on
`bash -c` but never appends extra positional args beyond the script itself,
so it never hits the same boundary — checked both siblings per review, not
assumed.

Corrected the now-actively-misleading CRLF comment in
extractStallHelpersBash(), and corrected the changeset's claim that the
repo-wide CRLF-normalization fix (folded into this branch, maintainer-
authorized) explains this PR's own Windows failure — it doesn't, though it
remains defensible on its own merits as general test-portability hardening.

Separately, while auditing the shipped (non-test) gsd_stall_watch for
Windows portability per review request, found and fixed a second, real
user-facing defect: the artifact-freshness check used GNU find's
`-newermt "@<epoch>"` shorthand, which the BSD find(1) actually shipped on
macOS does NOT understand ("Can't parse date/time: @<epoch>", verified live
against /usr/bin/find on both a stale and a genuinely fresh file). With the
adjacent `2>/dev/null`, that failed silently and permanently degraded
artifact_fresh to false on every macOS run — a plan-checker or planner
actively writing plan files could still be reported "stalled." Replaced
with `find $glob -mmin -N` ("modified less than N minutes ago"), which
needs no date-string parsing and is supported identically by GNU find and
BSD find; verified live that the old shape fails and the new shape passes
against the same real fresh file. Added a real-execution regression test
(gsd_stall_watch with `sleep` stubbed to a no-op so the test doesn't
actually wait, but the real `find ... -mmin` line still runs) proving the
fix, replacing the prior "not integration-tested" note for that path.

Note: the remote gsd-test runner is Linux-only, so it cannot itself confirm
the Windows fix — only the actual windows-latest CI lane can.

* fix(#2650): route the third bash -c call site through the same temp-file seam

runWatch() and a `-mmin` regression test still passed their script via
`bash -c <script>` after the previous commit only converted
runShouldRecover() — live Windows CI on 4b86cc57f confirmed the mechanism:
failures went 11 -> 4, and `full test (windows-latest, 22, shard 1/3)` and
`shard 2/3` flipped from fail to pass, but the remaining 4 failures (all in
this file, all still `bash: -c:`) were exactly the gsd_stall_watch describe
block, which runWatch() serves. runWatch() passes NO extra positional args
at all, so this also rules out the trailing-args theory from the prior
commit: the ~73-line, quote-dense script itself is what does not survive
Windows argv serialization when passed as a single `-c` element, regardless
of how many (if any) further argv elements follow it.

Extracted one shared runBashScript(script, args, opts) helper — write to a
fs.mkdtempSync'd file, run `bash <file> [args...]`, clean up in `finally` —
and routed all three bash-invoking call sites in this file through it
(runShouldRecover, runWatch, and the -mmin freshness test that builds its
own script inline for the `sleep` stub). One transport seam means a fourth
call site in this file cannot silently reintroduce the bug in isolation,
which is exactly what happened here with a second call site.

Corrected extractStallHelpersBash()'s doc comment a second time to state
the mechanism precisely (script content, not argv-element count) and cite
the live evidence (11->4 failures, shards 1 and 2 flipping green) so the
next reader does not have to rediscover it.

Audited every other bash-invoking call site in files this branch touches,
per review request:
- tests/code-review-pipeline-regression.test.cjs (runPostProcessing),
  tests/graphify-visualization.test.cjs (runBlock), and
  tests/drift-detection.test.cjs (two execFileSync('bash', ['-c', ...])
  sites, one of them carrying the same giant runtime-launcher preamble
  text) — all pre-existing, UNCHANGED by this branch (only touched for the
  readFileNormalized() CRLF swap), and already exercised on `next`'s last
  six Windows CI runs per the reviewer's own citation. Left as-is: no
  evidence of failure, and converting untested pre-existing code outside
  #2650's scope on an unverifiable guess would be its own risk.
- tests/git-base-branch.test.cjs (runHandleBranchingStep) and
  tests/quick-branching.test.cjs (runStep) already use the same temp-file
  pattern. No action needed.
- tests/runtime-launcher-parity.test.cjs (runResolver) uses `bash -c` but
  is explicitly `if (process.platform === 'win32') return '';` guarded off
  on Windows entirely, for an unrelated extension-less-PATH-stub reason —
  never reaches Windows argv transport at all. No action needed.
- tests/worktree-cleanup.test.cjs (runGuard) confirmed by the reviewer as
  correct and verified; not touched, per instruction.

Do not touch: the -mmin fix, the drift-ack fragment, the changeset — all
three confirmed correct in prior rounds and left untouched here.

Note: the remote gsd-test runner is Linux-only and cannot confirm this;
only the windows-latest lanes on #3015 can.

* fix(#2650): give runBashScript a default timeout

runShouldRecover() was the only one of the three call sites through
runBashScript() with no timeout — runWatch() and the -mmin test both pass
timeout: 10000 explicitly. Not a regression (this path never had a bound
before), but CONTEXT.md's unbounded-subprocess guidance applies directly,
and runShouldRecover() is driven repeatedly by a fast-check property test:
one pathological input that fails to terminate would hang CI indefinitely
instead of failing.

timeout: 10000 is now the helper's own default, with ...opts spread after
it so the two existing explicit timeout: 10000 call sites are unchanged
and any future caller inherits a bound automatically.

* fix(#2650): build the -mmin freshness test's glob with forward slashes

Windows CI on d6ddda6ea reported the last failure: the -mmin regression
test expected 'active' but got 'waiting' — find matched nothing, the same
silent-degradation shape as the macOS -newermt defect, but this time in the
test's own fixture rather than the shipped bash.

Traced what production actually passes: every gsd_stall_watch call site in
plan-phase.md builds artifact_glob as `"${PHASE_DIR}"'/*-PLAN.md'` —
PHASE_DIR is a POSIX-style .planning/phases/NN-slug value, and the whole
thing runs under Git Bash regardless of host OS, so production's glob is
always forward-slash. The test instead built it with
`path.join(tmp, '*-PLAN.md')`, which on Windows yields a backslash path
(C:\Users\RUNNER~1\...\*-PLAN.md). In bash pathname expansion a backslash
escapes the next character, so that pattern can never match a real path —
find silently returns empty under the existing 2>/dev/null, same shape as
the macOS bug. Confirmed as a test artifact, not a production defect:
production never constructs the glob this way, so no Windows user is
affected.

Fixed by forward-slashing the tmp dir before appending the glob suffix,
matching production's own convention, with a comment recording why (so a
future "simplify this back to path.join" edit doesn't silently reintroduce
the failure). The shipped bash's unquoted $artifact_glob is untouched —
quoting it would break the multi-file glob expansion it exists for.

Note: the remote runner is Linux-only and already passed clean at
d6ddda6ea (0/29,603, both node lanes); only the windows-latest lanes on
#3015 can confirm this fix.

* fix(#2650): forward-slash the three remaining runWatch globs (vacuous-pass CR)

The :353 fix (833c11da9) only converted the -mmin freshness test's glob.
Three sibling tests in the same describe block still built theirs with
path.join(tmp, '*-PLAN.md'), which yields a backslash path on Windows.

Two of those three were silently passing for the wrong reason: the
'-> stalled' and '-> waiting' tests both expect the glob to match nothing,
and on Windows a backslash path matches nothing regardless of whether the
directory is actually empty (bash eats each backslash as an escape before
the pattern is even evaluated). They would have passed identically with
glob expansion completely broken, which is a vacuous pass — not exercising
what they claim to. The third ('-> marker_received') is outcome-independent
of the glob, so it was merely inconsistent rather than wrong.

Converted all three to the same `${tmp.replace(/\\/g, '/')}/*-PLAN.md`
construction already used at the -mmin test, so every glob in the file now
matches production's own forward-slash `"${PHASE_DIR}"'/*-PLAN.md'` shape,
and the two negative tests are meaningful on Windows instead of accidentally
correct. Reworded the trailing comment on the 'stalled' test's glob line:
it now describes the fixture (the tmp dir contains no *-PLAN.md files)
rather than the pattern, since "matches nothing" read as a property of the
glob syntax when it's a property of what's on disk.

No assertion, the sleep stub, runBashScript, or the shipped bash changed.
Smoke-tested all three updated tests manually before committing (not via
node --test): marker_received / stalled / waiting, all correct.

* fix(#2650): fix own regression tests for #2993's plan-phase.md relocation

531101843's merge with origin/next brought in #2993 (unrelated, epic #1671
Phase 6.2), which extracted plan-phase.md's whole "Chunked Planning Mode"
section into gsd-core/workflows/plan-phase/steps/chunked-planning-mode.md,
leaving a <!-- gsd:section --> pointer behind. tests/plan-phase-drift-guard.
test.cjs (#913) was already updated to read the combined surface (host file
+ every steps/*.md) so its label count didn't go blind — my own #2650
regression tests were not, and searched plan-phase.md alone for the two
chunked spawn sites' headings, which no longer exist there. Two tests
failed outright (indexOf returning -1); a third ("standard planner spawn")
was silently weakened to an unbounded slice-to-EOF by the same relocation,
since its own end-boundary heading also moved — passing by accident rather
than by testing what it claimed.

Promoted the drift guard's local readPlanPhaseCombined() to a shared,
exported tests/helpers.cjs readWorkflowCombined(workflowPath) (host file +
sorted steps/*.md, CRLF-normalized at the read boundary) so a second,
divergent implementation is never written — the drift guard now delegates
to it via a same-named local wrapper, unchanged at every existing call site.

Fixed the three affected tests in tests/fix-2650-plan-phase-stall-detection.
test.cjs:
- "standard planner spawn (step 8)": end boundary changed from the now-gone
  "## 8.5. Chunked Planning Mode" heading to "## 9. Handle Planner Return",
  which still exists in plan-phase.md.
- "chunked outline spawn (8.5.1)" / "chunked per-plan spawn (8.5.2)": now
  read gsd-core/workflows/plan-phase/steps/chunked-planning-mode.md
  directly (not the generic multi-file combined blob, whose file-sort
  ordering would put unrelated step files between 8.5.2's slice and any
  downstream anchor) — the same heading-to-heading slicing as before still
  works because the file is small and self-contained.
- Extended the "no unbound $PLANNER_OUTPUT_FILE/$CHECKER_OUTPUT_FILE" check
  to also scan chunked-planning-mode.md, since two of the five spawn sites
  now live there.
- Added a new count-based test asserting exactly 5 (not "at least one")
  `gsd_stall_watch "$TS" "{outputFile}"` invocations across the combined
  surface, mirroring #913's own label-count guard, so every one of the five
  spawns stays provably bounded and a future relocation can't silently drop
  one without a test noticing.

Also added a small positive test that plan-phase.md's <!-- gsd:section -->
pointer to chunked-planning-mode.md exists (#2993 is unrelated to #2650 but
its presence is now load-bearing for where 2 of the 5 spawn sites live).

Audited every other test file in the repo for a stale reference to content
#2993 relocated (searched for the moved headings/prose and for
"chunked-planning-mode"/"CHUNKED_MODE" across all *.test.cjs): only this
file and the drift guard needed changes.
tests/issue-2762-plan-reviews-chunked.test.cjs already reads
chunked-planning-mode.md directly (brought in correct by the same merge).
gen-section-manifest.test.cjs, init.test.cjs, and workflow-fragments.test.cjs
reference "chunked-planning-mode" only as a manifest/section-id fixture
value for #2993 itself, not as a stale pointer to relocated content.

Did not touch: the ported ORCHESTRATOR RULE lines, run_in_background=true,
the glob constructions, runBashScript, the -mmin change, the timeout
default, or the drift-ack fragment (confirmed correct against the stale
local `next` ref two rounds ago and left alone).

ad3b9ec486 chore(#1671): fragmentize plan-phase.md and repair flag forwarding to the init bundle — Phase 6.2 (#3019)
* chore(#2993): fragmentize plan-phase.md onto the fragment model

Epic #1671 Phase 6.2. plan-phase.md is the largest workflow in the repo and
carried zero markers; it was deferred out of the Phase 3 pilot for two
reasons, both now dead. The 36-byte PRE_PHASE6 headroom was never the
blocker it looked like — fragmentizing is net-negative on host source, so
the trim is what creates the room. The --mvp interleaving was resolved by
measurement in #2992 and no sub-line mechanism is built.

- widen WHEN_VOCABULARY 14 -> 19 via a second coordinated ADR-1671
  amendment: flag:--ingest, flag:--prd, flag:--research-phase,
  flag:--reviews, state:chunked-mode
- state:chunked-mode is `--chunked` OR config workflow.plan_chunked, and
  that disjunction is resolved in the FACT, never in the grammar, so a
  compound condition never becomes an operator
- parse the new flags on the plan-phase route; extract six gated bodies to
  gsd-core/workflows/plan-phase/steps/ behind manifest-gated stubs
- prd-express-path.md was already extracted but read unconditionally; its
  wrapper is now gated, so the existing extraction finally pays off

plan-phase.md 94,483 -> 87,575 bytes (cap 94,519): headroom goes from 36
bytes to 6,944.

Also closes a surfaced docs gap: five real plan-phase flags (--chunked,
--skip-ui, --bounce, --skip-bounce, --granularity) were documented in
neither the argument-hint nor help. Making --chunked load-bearing without
fixing its siblings would leave the defect class half-open.

Refs #2993

* fix(#2993): forward flags to the init bundle so section gating actually fires

Blocker found by the correctness review, confirmed directly, and missed by
both the isolated reviewer and every test in this branch.

Neither workflow forwarded its flags to the init CLI:

  plan-phase.md:71    INIT=$(gsd_run query init.plan-phase "$PHASE" $GRAN_PARAM)
  execute-phase.md:84 INIT=$(gsd_run query init.execute-phase "${PHASE_ARG}")

So every flag: atom was permanently false in production and its section
permanently excluded. For plan-phase that made the PRD express path
UNREACHABLE — a regression, since it was an unconditional read before.
For execute-phase this is PRE-EXISTING: #2932 shipped `flag:--wave` gating
that has never once been true, so `--wave` silently dropped its own
wave-filtering guidance. Fixed here under the no-defer rule.

Why every test missed it: they drive the init CLI directly with flags,
which works. Production goes through the workflow's bash line, which did
not pass them — the exact "assert against the shape production uses" trap
this branch's own test matrix warns about.

- parse and forward --prd/--ingest/--research-phase/--reviews/--chunked
  (plan-phase) and --wave (execute-phase), using the anchored regex idiom
  the neighbouring GRAN_PARAM line already uses
- add a regression guard DERIVED FROM THE MANIFEST: for every flag:--X
  section, the owning workflow's init line must forward --X. It fails
  against the pre-fix files and covers any future atom, rather than
  spot-checking today's six.

Verified through the workflow shape, not the CLI shape: `3 --prd spec.md`
now yields ["prd-express-gate"] (was []), `2 --wave 2` yields
["partial-wave"] (was []).

Refs #2993

* test(#2993): acknowledge the execute-phase ripple and regenerate install-tree fixtures

Remote matrix was red with 46 unique failures, identical on both lanes.
Both causes are mechanical consequences of changing shipped workflow
content, and neither is visible to any local gate.

- emitted-attribution: execute-phase.md grew 163 bytes from the WAVE_PARAM
  forwarding fix and was unacknowledged, while the ack fragment named
  plan-phase.md, which SHRANK and therefore needed no ack at all — a stale
  entry is itself a failure. The reason now names the real ripple.
  The entry had to merge into the existing 2930 fragment: the ack linter
  does unconditional cross-fragment duplicate-key detection with no
  spent/live exception, so a second fragment declaring execute-phase.md
  collides even when the first is already merged and inert. Resolved per
  the linter's own guidance and that file's precedent of appending
  successive ripple reasons to one entry.
- golden-install-tree: tests/fixtures/install-tree/*.json are committed and
  deliberately excluded from the ADR-2719 attribution cutover, so they must
  be regenerated when shipped tree content changes. Regenerated after
  build:lib per the ordering landmine. 19 runtimes each gained exactly the
  six new plan-phase step files; zero paths removed, which is the absolute
  failure shape those fixtures exist to catch.

Refs #2993

* fix(#2993): restore the launcher preamble in an extracted step and follow moved content in its drift guards

Second red run: 26 unique failures, identical on both lanes, in two classes.

RUNTIME BUG (runtime-launcher-parity, 7 failures) — chunked-planning-mode.md
calls gsd_run but carried no canonical launcher preamble, which is what
DEFINES gsd_run(). On any non-Claude runtime that step would fail outright.
The preamble is now copied verbatim from the canonical source of truth,
gsd-core/workflows/_runtime-launcher.snippet.sh, and the fence dedented to
column 0 to match the prd-express-path.md sibling (a list-continuation
indent breaks the byte-equal preamble match). prd-express-path.md already
had a correct one. This is the same defect #2932 hit when it extracted
steps; the parity test caught a real bug, not a stale assertion.

DRIFT GUARDS (plan-phase-drift-guard, issue-2762-plan-reviews-chunked,
skill-frontmatter-contract) — these assert plan-phase.md contains content
this branch moved into step files. Retargeted at where the content now
lives, with the asserted property unchanged; the ALL-RUNTIMES label COUNT
test now reads host + every step file so the count is preserved across the
split rather than reduced. Each retargeted guard was verified to still fail
when its step file is stripped, so none was weakened into vacuity.

No emitted-drift ack was needed: currentSizes() enumerates
gsd-core/workflows/*.md non-recursively, so files under
plan-phase/steps/ are never in the size ratchet's scope.

a987cf2731 chore(#2932): emit a per-invocation section manifest from the init bundle (#2987)
* chore(#2932): emit a per-invocation section manifest from init

Extends the init bundle with a typed per-invocation section manifest so an
invocation loads only the branch guidance it will actually take.

The three flag/state-gated branches in execute-phase.md move into their own
step files; the parent keeps its gsd:section markers wrapping a one-line
on-demand reference, so each section's prose lives in exactly one file and
the parent shrinks 93369 -> 89507 bytes. A new drift-guarded generator
derives the shipped section manifest from those markers, and a new pure
evaluator maps invocation facts to applicable section ids.

The evaluator is a lookup over the frozen WHEN_VOCABULARY, never a parser
(Greenspun's Tenth Rule, ADR-1671:69); a parity test asserts the vocabulary
and the predicate map stay exhaustively in sync.

Closes #2932

* fix(#2932): fail closed on prototype-chain when values

An isolated adversarial review found WHEN_PREDICATES[section.when] was a
bracket lookup on a plain-prototype object, so inherited Object.prototype
members resolved as predicates: "constructor"/"toString"/"valueOf"/
"hasOwnProperty" returned truthy and SILENTLY INCLUDED the section, and
"__proto__" threw an untyped TypeError carrying no .reason. Both violate
the module's documented fail-closed contract, and the manifest is read from
disk at run time so it cannot be assumed trustworthy.

Builds the predicate map on a null prototype and guards the lookup with an
explicit Object.hasOwn check. Adds table-driven coverage for nine
Object.prototype-shaped keys asserting the TYPED reason (asserting only

c61dd49d95 enhance(#2255): blocking catastrophic-shrink guard for curated .planning/ writes (#2301)
* feat(#2255): blocking catastrophic-shrink guard for .planning writes

Adds hooks/gsd-write-guard.js, a PreToolUse hook that hard-blocks
(decision: 'block', exit 2) a whole-file Write collapsing a curated
.planning/ artifact (ROADMAP.md, .planning/milestones/*-ROADMAP.md,
STATE.md) below 40% of its on-disk line count. Files under 40 lines
are exempt; GSD_ALLOW_PLANNING_SHRINK=1 (named in the block message)
bypasses for legitimate milestone resets.

Fix 3 of #973 — the only defense independent of per-agent tool config.
Registered on the Claude plugin surface (hooks.json), settings-json
runtimes (runtime-hooks-surface.cts, self-contained pattern), Kimi
spec, and the OpenCode/Kilo plugin buses. Golden install fixtures and
INVENTORY regenerated; regression tests negative-controlled (16/16
RED with the hook absent, 16/16 GREEN with it present).

* chore(#2255): backfill changeset pr number to 2301

* enhance(#2255): address review — fail-closed reads, typed block output, registration, property test

Review fixes for trek-e's CHANGES_REQUESTED on PR #2301:

- Blocker 2: register gsd-write-guard.js in BUNDLED_GSD_HOOK_FILES
  (no-shipping-drift test).
- Blocker 3: update the always-on hook enumerations in ADR-766 and
  CONTEXT.md from six to seven.
- Major 4: fail CLOSED on non-ENOENT read errors — only a missing file
  (new-file Write) passes; EACCES/EISDIR/ELOOP/etc now block, with a
  typed readError field and the override still honored. Tested, with a
  negative control against the pre-fix hook.
- Major 5: fast-check property test for the SHRINK_RATIO/FLOOR_LINES
  budget contract (blocked ⟺ newLines < oldLines*SHRINK_RATIO above the
  floor; sub-floor always exempt), boundary examples pinned.
- Major 6: block output now carries typed oldLines/newLines/
  overrideEnvVar fields; tests assert on those instead of regexing the
  free-form reason string.
- Minor: CURATED_PATTERNS are case-insensitive (case-insensitive-FS
  bypass on macOS/Windows); limit+1 boundary tests added for both the
  floor and the ratio.

* enhance(#2255): engage the write guard on Kimi's native payload shape

The guard shipped with Claude-vocabulary checks (tool_name 'Write',
tool_input.file_path), which #2304 showed leaves a guard dormant on
Kimi: the [[hooks]] matcher is registered pre-translated but kimi-cli
forwards its native payload verbatim — tool_name 'WriteFile' (bare or
module-qualified) and tool_input.path per its tool schemas
(src/kimi_cli/tools/file/write.py). The guard matched, saw an unknown
name, and exited 0.

Apply the same per-guard normalization PR #2326 gives the three
sibling guards (name + field mapping, inlined — hook scripts stage as
standalone files), and write the block reason to stderr as well as
stdout JSON: Kimi feeds stderr, not stdout, back to the model on
exit 2, so a stdout-only reason blocks without telling the model why
or naming the documented override.

Regression tests pipe Kimi-shaped payloads (engage, qualified-name,
stderr-reason) plus exemption pins (StrReplaceFile stays out of scope
by design; non-curated paths pass) — verified red against the pre-fix
guard, green after.

* enhance(#2255): rebase onto next; regenerate golden-parity fixtures

* enhance(#2255): wire the escape hatch into complete-milestone's reorganize step

Review Blocker 1: the guard hard-blocked /gsd:complete-milestone's ROADMAP
reorganize — the tree's only legitimate milestone reset and the exact caller
GSD_ALLOW_PLANNING_SHRINK was built for. The reorganize step now performs the
rewrite through a shell write with the hatch set on the command (a hook
inherits the runtime env, so a bare Write cannot carry a per-step override),
and a binding test derives the env var name from the guard's typed output and
asserts (a) the workflow step sets it and (b) the guard passes the identical
catastrophic payload under it — so the next complete-milestone.md edit cannot
silently re-break the wiring.

* enhance(#2255): drop dead Edit-class mapping from normalizeKimiPayload

Review Major 1: StrReplaceFile -> 'Edit' and the old_string/new_string
reconstruction were unreachable-by-effect — the guard exits 0 for any
tool_name !== 'Write', so nothing ever read the fields they set, leaving
guaranteed-surviving mutants against the Stryker bar. The map now carries
only WriteFile -> 'Write'; the StrReplaceFile exemption test message states
the fall-through it actually exercises.

* enhance(#2255): review minors — American spellings; writeSync before exit(2)

Minor 1: normalised/normalise -> American house style. Minor 2: the two
block paths wrote stdout+stderr via async pipe writes then exit(2) —
async-on-Windows, unflushed at exit; fs.writeSync(1/2, ...) makes the block
payload durable.

* enhance(#2255): assert stderr equals the typed reason, not raw prose

Minor 3: the last raw-text match in the suite pinned override-name prose on
stderr. The contract is "stderr carries the reason Kimi feeds back" — now
asserted as stderr non-empty and byte-equal to the parsed stdout.reason.

* enhance(#2255): bind the write-guard's Kimi normalization into the parity test

Review Major 2: the guard's normalizeKimiPayload is a 4th inlined copy with
nothing binding it. This extends PR #2326's kimi-guard-normalization-parity
test (same path and helpers, authored as a superset so either merge order
resolves cleanly): sibling byte-parity is existence-gated zero-or-all —
trivially green until #2326 lands, full-strength after — and the write-guard
copy is bound semantically (map is the value-inverse of convertKimiToolName;
the Kimi name for Write must map, or the guard is dormant on Kimi; the
path -> file_path half must be present). Byte-parity is deliberately not
asserted for this copy: it legitimately omits the Edit-class mapping
(Major 1 — dead code in a Write-only guard).

* enhance(#2255): refresh golden-parity fixtures for revised guard + workflow

* chore(#2255): regenerate golden fixtures after rebase onto next

The committed fixture hashes were generated against a tree predating
next's latest 11 commits, which independently modified the same
install-parity surface. Rebased onto next and regenerated with
`npm run gen:golden`.

Verified: against upstream/next the regenerated fixtures differ by
exactly this PR's own entries -- hooks/gsd-write-guard.js (new),
hooks/managed-hooks-registry.cjs, plugins/gsd-core.js, and
gsd-core/workflows/complete-milestone.md. No unrelated drift.

* fix(#2255): regenerate workflow size baseline for complete-milestone

`complete-milestone.md` grew 31071 -> 32061 (+990) when the round-2
review fix bound GSD_ALLOW_PLANNING_SHRINK=1 into the reorganize step,
but tests/workflow-size-baseline.json was never regenerated. The
per-file workflow baseline test (issue #1074) failed on
ubuntu-latest/22 and both macOS shard 1/3 jobs.

The growth is justified: it is the escape-hatch binding requested in
review round 2 (the guard must not hard-block the tree's only
legitimate milestone reset), not incidental bloat.

Regenerated via `npm run size:baseline`; the diff is exactly the one
entry.

* chore(#2255): regenerate golden fixtures and size baseline after rebase onto next

* enhance(#2255): bind the shrink escape hatch mechanically — single-use sentinel the guard consumes

Round-5 M1: the per-step `GSD_ALLOW_PLANNING_SHRINK=1 tee` prefix was inert
(no PreToolUse hook exists on Bash in this family; the write succeeded by
dodging the guard, not by the override firing) and the protection was prose.
The hatch is now a transport code consults: complete-milestone's reorganize
step arms `.planning/.gsd-allow-shrink` with the target's path, keeps the
Write tool as the sanctioned path, and the guard — at the block point only —
verifies the sentinel is fresh (15 min) and names the pending target, then
CONSUMES it and allows that one write. Path-bound + single-use + freshness
keep it from becoming a standing unlock. The env var remains as the
interactive transport, where it can actually reach the hook.

Regression tests written first (negative control: 3 failed pre-fix): the
armed-sentinel Write passes and consumes; stale does not exempt; a token for
a different file neither exempts nor is consumed; the binding test now takes
the sentinel name from the guard's typed output (overrideSentinel), asserts
the step arms it, and asserts the step no longer routes the rewrite around
Write via a shell pipe.

Also in this commit, same file:
- m2: block emission is exception-safe — emitBlock() wraps both writeSync
  sites in their own try/catch that still exits 2, so an EPIPE can no longer
  convert fail-closed into the outer catch's fail-open.
- Header discloses the two reviewed design limits (cumulative sequential
  shrink; lexical match vs symlinked paths) per round-5 scoping.

* docs(#2255): document the sentinel transport across guard surfaces; changeset ends with the (#2255) parenthetical (m4)

USER-GUIDE bullet, INVENTORY row (en + ja/ko/pt/zh), the
runtime-hooks-surface registration comment, and the changeset now describe
both hatches — the single-use sentinel for workflow steps and the env var
for interactive use — instead of implying a per-step env can reach a hook.
The changeset's trailing `Resolves #2255.` prose becomes the `(#2255)`
parenthetical the repo's fragments use (round-5 m4).

* chore(#2255): regenerate derived families on the rebased tree (full sweep)

Full generator sweep after rebasing onto next @ the body-parser-patched
lockfile: build, gen-inventory-manifest, gen:golden, size:baseline. Every
regen delta verified to be either a PR-owned entry (gsd-write-guard.js,
complete-milestone.md, INVENTORY/USER-GUIDE) or exact convergence to next's
committed value for entries our arbitrary-side conflict resolution had left
stale (all 18 runtime fixtures checked mechanically).

* test(#2255): use helpers.cleanup for sentinel teardown, not raw fs.rmSync

The repo's local/no-raw-rmsync-in-tests rule exists for the Windows-EBUSY
retry budget; the sentinel disarm now rides it like every other teardown.

* chore(#2255): regenerate derived families after rebase onto next

Full sweep on the rebased tree (build -> gen-inventory-manifest ->
gen:golden -> size:baseline). Every delta is either a PR-owned entry
(hooks/gsd-write-guard.js, its registration surfaces
hooks/managed-hooks-registry.cjs and the two plugin buses,
gsd-core/workflows/complete-milestone.md) or exact convergence to
next's committed value across all 18 runtime fixtures.

* chore(#2255): regenerate derived families after rebase onto next @ a5180d96

Rebase onto current `next` (a5180d96) resolved 12 conflicting
golden-install-parity fixtures; all regenerated via the full generator
sweep (build, gen:golden, size:baseline) rather than a single generator.

`lint:generated-sync` reports every generated artifact in sync. All 45
differing fixture keys and the single workflow-size-baseline entry map
to files this PR actually touches; no foreign drift.

* fix(#2255): remove the stale unguarded reorganize_roadmap step (round-8 blocker)

complete-milestone.md carried a second ROADMAP-collapsing step,
`reorganize_roadmap`, distinct from the sentinel-armed
`reorganize_roadmap_and_delete_originals` this PR wired. It is a vestige
of the pre-archive-then-reorganize design: it sits BEFORE
archive_milestone, so executing it as written would collapse ROADMAP.md
before the archive snapshots the full phase detail — and its Write is
exactly the shape gsd-write-guard hard-blocks, with no hatch armed. The
file's own success criteria describe only one reorganize outcome
(Backlog-preserving, overwrite-in-place — the later step's properties),
and archive_milestone points forward to "the reorganize step".

Removed rather than wired, per the round-8 review's confirm-and-remove
option. A new binding test asserts the sentinel-armed step is the ONLY
reorganize step in the workflow, so an unguarded collapse step cannot be
silently reintroduced (negative-controlled: fails against the pre-fix
tree). Golden-parity fixtures and the size baseline regenerate for the
shrunk file; every changed fixture key is complete-milestone.md's own.

* test(#2255): document why the read-error injection is a path collision, not an fs monkeypatch

Round-8 nit: the non-ENOENT tests inject via a directory-at-target-path
collision instead of the repo's fs-method monkeypatch pattern. That is
deliberate, not drift — runHook exercises the hook as a spawnSync child
process, so an in-process fs.readFileSync patch (the pattern the cited
siblings use on require'd, in-process code) can never reach the code
under test. Record the reasoning at the injection site.

* chore(#2255): regenerate derived families after rebase onto next @ 0d08c320

Rebase onto current next (0d08c320) for the CONFLICTING/DIRTY state. All 32
conflicts were generated artifacts (19 golden-install-parity, 12 install-tree,
workflow-size-baseline); resolved arbitrarily and regenerated via a full
generator sweep (build, gen:golden, size:baseline, gen-inventory-manifest)
rather than hand-merged. No source conflicts.

Regen diff verified against the PR's changed-file set: 7 distinct differing
keys, all PR-owned (gsd-write-guard.js, managed-hooks-registry.cjs,
plugins/gsd-core.js, complete-milestone.md, and their .kimi mirrors).
lint:generated-sync clean.

* chore(#2255): regenerate derived families after rebase onto next @ 9138271b

Conflict set was 20 paths, every one a generated artifact, zero source
conflicts — resolved arbitrarily during the replay and regenerated here,
per the maintainer's round-9 recipe (never hand-merged).

Generator sweep (not just gen:golden): npm run build, gen:golden,
size:baseline, gen-inventory-manifest, gen:registry. INVENTORY-MANIFEST
came back byte-identical, so the merged value was already correct.

Regen diff verified == PR-touched entries: every differing leaf key
attributes to a file this PR changes (complete-milestone.md, the guard,
managed-hooks-registry.cjs, both plugin buses) — derived from the
changed-file set, not a feature-name filter.

* fix(#2255): port the #2595 Kimi-payload hardening the base landed for the sibling guards

Self-found via the round-10 base sweep: a8b40fa5 (#2547/PR #2595) hardened
gsd-prompt/read/worktree-path-guard's normalizeKimiPayload after this PR was
authored, and this guard carried all three pre-fix shapes:

- `path` now wins outright over a model-supplied `file_path` — kimi-cli's
  WriteFile schema carries no `file_path`, so a payload pairing a curated
  `path` with a spurious `file_path: ""` had the guard reading '' and
  exiting 0 while kimi-cli wrote to `path` (one-key bypass, no crash needed).
- null/primitive payloads pass through deliberately instead of throwing into
  the fail-open catch.
- the `file_path` read is typed (`typeof === 'string'`), closing the
  crash-to-allow on `[]`/`{}` — this is what the base-added
  kimi-guard-typed-payload-reads scan flags.

Negative-controlled: the shadowing payload exits 0 against the pre-fix guard
and 2 against this one.

* fix(#2255): round 9 Major 2 — stop printing the sentinel recipe in the agent-facing denial

The block message ended by telling the blocked agent exactly how to arm the
single-use sentinel — handing the #973 actor a mechanical self-authorization
in the moment it is blocked. The recipe is gone from the prose; the
corrective advice and the env override's name stay (the latter is a #2255
acceptance criterion, and a per-step env prefix cannot reach a hook anyway),
and the typed overrideSentinel field stays for the binding tests. The hatch
remains documented in USER-GUIDE.md and complete-milestone.md, where humans
and the workflow engine read.

* fix(#2255): round 9 Minors 1-2 — realpath-resolve the target before the curated match; disclose the /i Linux cost

Minor 1: a Write to a non-curated path that symlinks into a curated file was
not matched while writeFileSync followed the link — the target is now
realpath-resolved before the curated match (ENOENT keeps the lexical
resolution so new-file Writes still pass; any other realpath error falls
through to the read, which fails closed). Negative-controlled: the symlink
payload exits 0 against the pre-fix guard, 2 against this one. Test skips on
win32, where symlink creation needs privilege.

Minor 2: the header's design-limits block now names the unconditional /i
cost on case-sensitive Linux (a genuinely distinct .planning/roadmap.md is
also treated as curated) next to the stateless limit, and drops the closed
symlink limit.

* test(#2255): round 9 Minors 3-4 — CRLF counting pin + a passing Write leaves a fresh sentinel unburned

Minor 3: countLines' split('\n') is CRLF-safe for a count (the \r rides
along), confirmed by trace in the review — this pins it against this repo's
recurring CRLF regressions, on both sides of the compare and at the 40%
boundary.

Minor 4: consumeSentinelFor runs only after the ratio check would block, so
a within-tolerance Write never burns the workflow's token — true by
construction, previously un-asserted.

* fix(#2255): round 9 Major 3 — correct the stale env-var line in archive_milestone's summary

complete-milestone.md's "After archival" bullet still said the reorganize
happens "under GSD_ALLOW_PLANNING_SHRINK=1" — the wording from the round-2
design this PR's own history rejected in round 5 (a per-step env var cannot
reach a hook; setting it in a Bash step silently does nothing). It now points
at the sentinel mechanics the reorganize step actually documents, matching
that step and USER-GUIDE.md.

* docs(#2255): round 9 Major 1 — user-facing docs state the stateless per-Write limit

The changeset and USER-GUIDE described the guard as covering "catastrophically
shrinks" with no caveat, while the stateless design was disclosed only in the
hook header — an operator reading the shipped docs would conclude iterative
erosion is covered. Both surfaces now state the per-Write comparison and the
erosion non-goal explicitly, in line with what the guard does.

* fix(#2255): round 10 Blocker 1 — arm the hatch in the roadmapper's curated writes

gsd-roadmapper Step 7 Writes both .planning/ROADMAP.md and .planning/STATE.md
wholesale, and /gsd:new-milestone spawns it against the OUTGOING milestone's
files. new-milestone's `phases.clear` archives phase DIRECTORIES, never
ROADMAP.md, so nothing compacts it first, and no ordering rule forces
/gsd:complete-milestone to run before /gsd:new-milestone.

Measured against the shipped hook at the #973 file size (292 lines): a new
4-phase roadmap lands at 18.2% and an 8-phase one at 31.8% — both blocked; only
a 12-phase replacement (45.5%) clears. So the collapse is reachable on a
first-party flow, which is the failure mode #2255 para 4 says the guard must not
have.

Arms the single-use sentinel immediately before each Write, one per target
(the token is path-bound and single-use, so one arming cannot cover both), and
gates each arming on `[ -f ]` so the /gsd:new-project path — where the guard
already exempts via ENOENT — strands no unconsumed token.

Binding test derives the sentinel name from the guard's own typed output, so a
rename on either side fails the suite instead of silently unwiring the hatch.
Negative-controlled: 2 assertions fail against the pre-fix roadmapper.

* docs(#2255): round 10 Major 2 — scope the claim to the guarantee that ships

The sentinel is a plain file, so an agent that would reason past an advisory
can arm one with a single Bash call it is already permitted to make. The
"only defense independent of per-agent tool config" framing outran that, and
the changeset was on its way into CHANGELOG.md.

Retitles the claim on all three surfaces (changeset, guard header, USER-GUIDE)
to what the guard actually delivers: it blocks accidental and single-shot
collapse and is not a defense against a determined agent; what it converts is
"ignore a sentence" into "take one deliberate, path-bound, single-use,
auditable action".

Pinned by test on the DURABLE surfaces only — the guard header and USER-GUIDE.
The changeset fragment is deliberately not pinned: it is consumed at release,
so a test reading it would start failing the moment the release lands. The
bound-statement assertion normalizes comment markers and whitespace first, so
it pins the claim rather than the paragraph's line wrapping.

Negative-controlled: both assertions fail against the pre-fix surfaces.

* test(#2255): acknowledge the roadmapper growth from the round 10 Blocker 1 wiring

The emitted-attribution gate (#2719/#2767) flags gsd-roadmapper.md growing 1130
bytes without an acknowledgment. The growth is the Blocker 1 sentinel wiring
plus the rationale a future editor needs to keep it, so it gets an ack fragment
rather than a silencing regen — the gate's own message is explicit that there is
nothing left to regenerate.

Fragment is PR-scoped (2301-…) per the gate's naming instruction, and uses the
plain-string reason form the shipped fragments use.

Verified against the TRUE upstream tip, not the fork's origin/next: a stale
origin made this same gate report unrelated phantom drift (1 emitted path + 6
grown files + 5 stale acks) that vanishes when GSD_EMITTED_BASE is pinned.

* test(#2255): renumber the roadmapper PROSE_ALLOWLIST pin after the Step 7 wiring

CI red on shard 2/3, all four platforms. The #2751 gate keys PROSE_ALLOWLIST on
{file, line}; the Blocker 1 wiring added 18 lines above the allowlisted
parenthetical in agents/gsd-roadmapper.md, moving it 624 -> 642. Both halves of
the gate then fired: the moved line reads as a new offender, and the stale
entry no longer matches anything.

Line content at 642 is byte-identical to what the entry describes — a
descriptive "e.g." naming SDK queries a user could run — so this is a
renumber, not a re-classification.

Swept the defect class rather than the instance: agents/gsd-roadmapper.md is
the only line-pinned reference to any file this round changed.

Negative-controlled: both assertions fail against the un-renumbered allowlist.

cc3ee301a7 fix(#2544): stage the CommonJS marker in GSD-owned dirs, not the config root (#2593)
* fix(#2544): stage the CommonJS marker in GSD-owned dirs, not the config root

installSharedHooksBundle wrote `{"type":"commonjs"}` over
<configRoot>/package.json unconditionally — no existence check, no merge,
no backup — on every install and every /gsd-update re-install. On the 11
affected runtimes that file is often user-owned; on OpenCode and Kilo it is
the documented place to declare local-plugin npm dependencies, so a user's
name/type/dependencies/scripts were destroyed on each run.

The uninstall path already read the file and unlinked it only on an exact
content match. That asymmetry was the defect: the discipline existed in the
codebase, it just was not applied on the write side.

Move the marker into the directories GSD creates and fills with its own .js
files — hooks/ (all shared-hooks runtimes, incl. Kimi's own root) and the
nativePlugin dir (plugins/ for OpenCode+Kilo, extensions/ for pi) — and stop
writing the config root entirely. New src/commonjs-marker.cts owns the marker
string plus one ownership predicate (absent / gsd-owned / foreign, fail-closed
on an unreadable file) shared by ensureCommonJsMarker and removeCommonJsMarker,
so install and uninstall cannot drift apart again.

Nothing else depended on the config-root marker: package identity is baked at
build time (#378/#498) and version resolution prefers gsd-core/VERSION and
already tolerates a missing root package.json (#1383) — Codex has installed
without one all along. A package.json in plugins/ or extensions/ is inert to
plugin discovery, which globs *.{ts,js} only (see installer-migration 006).

Uninstall retires the pre-fix config-root marker, so upgrading users are
cleaned up on removal, and still never touches a file it did not write.

* fix(#2544): point the changeset fragment at the filed PR

The fragment's `pr:` field is only knowable after `gh pr create` returns.

* fix(#2544): register commonjs-marker.cjs in the tsc-generated ESLint ignore set

bin/lib/commonjs-marker.cjs is tsc output (src/commonjs-marker.cts is the
linted source), so it belongs in the ADR-457 ignore list like its siblings.
Clears the lint-tests no-var failure and the repo-invariants
"linted xor ignored" migration-state test.

* fix(#2544): pin the kimi CommonJS marker to hooks/, not the ~/.kimi root

The UPGRADE 1 test still asserted the pre-#2544 marker location
(~/.kimi/package.json). The marker now lives inside ~/.kimi/hooks — the
directory GSD itself creates — matching the updated golden-install-parity
and install-tree fixtures. Also asserts the root marker is NOT written.

* fix(#2544): make the CommonJS marker write path non-fatal

Review round 2, Major 3 + Minor 1 + the stagedHooks nit.

ensureCommonJsMarker rethrew any non-EEXIST write error and neither call site
caught it, so EACCES on a read-only hooks/, EROFS, or ENOSPC aborted the whole
install with a raw stack trace. Every other marker interaction in the module is
best-effort — removeCommonJsMarker swallows unlink failures, classifyMarker
swallows read failures — and this was the write path, i.e. the one most likely
to fail on a locked-down config dir. It now returns a new 'failed' outcome and
both call sites warn and continue.

Sibling found while sweeping for the same defect class: fs.mkdirSync sat
OUTSIDE the try block, so an unwritable parent threw past the guard entirely.
Creating the directory is the same environmental hazard as writing into it, so
it moved inside.

Also in this file:

- The hooks marker is now gated on `stagedHooks && hooksOk`, not stagedHooks
  alone. stagedHooks is computed from the SOURCE listing before the copy loop,
  so it stays true when the copies land but verifyInstalled() then fails —
  marking a hooks/ GSD did not successfully populate claims an ownership the
  install did not earn.
- The uninstall rmdir of the native plugin dir is gated on GSD having actually
  removed something from it. Hoisting it out of the adapter-exists guard (so
  the marker-only case could prune) had silently widened it into deleting a
  user-created but empty plugins/ or extensions/ dir — the same "don't touch
  territory GSD didn't fill" principle this issue is about, inverted.
- Kimi's pre-#2544 marker at its native hook root (~/.kimi) is retired at the
  same call site that writes its replacement. That path is outside kimi's
  configDir, so installer-migration 007 structurally cannot reach it.

* fix(#2544): retire the stale config-root marker via installer-migration 007

Review round 2, Major 1 — the PR's headline claim was false for existing
installs. Upgraders kept BOTH markers: the new one under hooks/ and the stale
{"type":"commonjs"} at the config root, so their config root stayed pinned to
CommonJS and their dependency manifest stayed gone until they uninstalled.

The migration is unusual in one way, and it is the part worth reviewing: the
config-root marker was never recorded in gsd-file-manifest.json (writeManifest
records hooks/, agents/, commands/, scripts/ and the native plugin, never a root
package.json), so classifyArtifact answers 'unknown' for it and the planner's
own guard downgrades a remove-managed on an 'unknown' classification to
preserve-user. 007 therefore supplies the "purpose-built detector for an old
GSD-owned shape" that docs/installer-migrations.md#remove-managed sanctions —
exact content match, the same predicate removeCommonJsMarker has always used —
and declares the resulting classification on the action. A package.json with any
other content is left untouched, and there is deliberately no backup-and-remove
branch: a non-matching file here is not a patched GSD artifact, it is somebody
else's file.

Scope is all runtimes. The `runtimes` field is OMITTED rather than `[]`:
validateStringArray requires the field to be non-empty WHEN PRESENT, while the
runtime filter treats an empty array as "all" — so `runtimes: []` throws at plan
time and the migration never runs. The metadata test pins this.

Kimi is a deliberate carve-out, named in the migration's own header: its marker
lived at ~/.kimi, outside kimi's configDir, and migration relPaths are
structurally confined to configDir. It is retired by the installer instead.

Registration: shipped-migrations table, .gitignore for the emitted .cjs, the
EXPECTED_CHECKSUMS baseline, and the ESLint ignore set. That last one is not
copied from migration 006 by rote — 006 needs no entry because it imports
nothing, while 007 imports node builtins, so tsc emits its __importDefault
helper and the `var` in it trips no-var. This is the same lint gate that made
round 1 red.

* test(#2544): fault-injection and multi-runtime marker coverage

Review round 2, Major 2 + Minors 4 and 5.

Major 2 — CONTRIBUTING.md:514-531 is mandatory for install/uninstall flows and
the suite had no fs monkeypatching at all. Every branch now covered is one whose
doc comment claims it as the module's safety posture:

- classifyMarker non-ENOENT lstat error -> 'foreign' (the fail-closed rule),
  with an ENOENT control alongside it so the test discriminates rather than
  just asserting one side
- classifyMarker readFileSync throw -> 'foreign' (present-but-unreadable never
  downgrades to the permissive answer) — the fixture's bytes are exactly GSD's
  marker, so the test fails if the code ever answers on content it could not read
- a DIRECTORY at the marker path (CONTRIBUTING:521; the symlink case was already
  covered with a real symlink, the directory case needs no injection at all)
- the ensureCommonJsMarker TOCTOU EEXIST branch — the entire reason for flag:'wx'
- the new 'failed' outcome, for both writeFileSync (EACCES/EROFS/ENOSPC) and the
  mkdirSync that used to sit outside the guard
- removeCommonJsMarker unlink throw -> false

These save and restore fs methods in `finally` rather than using chmod 0o000,
which does not fault under root and would pass vacuously in root Docker and CI.

Minor 4 — uninstall was driven for opencode only. pi's extensions/ and both
kimi locations now have behavioral coverage, install and uninstall, each paired
with a user-authored-file case proving GSD leaves it alone.

Minor 5 — the stagedHooks gate had no assertion behind its stated reason.
A pre-existing, GSD-untouched hooks/ directory is now driven through a runtime
that declares skipSharedHooksInstall and asserted to stay marker-free, with its
user content intact.

Also regression-tests the uninstall rmdir gate from the previous commit: an
empty plugin dir GSD removed nothing from must survive.

* docs(#2544): correct stale marker prose, register the module, document the trade-off

Review round 2, Minors 2, 3 and 6.

Minor 2 — six files asserted the installed ROOT ships the synthetic marker.
None was load-bearing (all three walk-up consumers are VERSION-first with
try/catch and the marker never carried a `version`), but ADR-457:52 is the
rationale for keeping a generated module, so a future reader would mis-derive
the constraint from it. Each site is corrected to what is now true: the
installed tree carries no package.json with a .name at all, because the only
ones GSD stages are {"type":"commonjs"} markers and they now live in GSD's own
directories.

Two of the six needed more than a location swap. hooks/gsd-check-update-worker.js
and the platform-gate test both described `require('../package.json').name`
resolving to undefined; post-#2544 that require does not resolve at all, so the
history is kept accurate and the present-tense claim corrected rather than just
moved. And src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts described the no-root-package.json
case as Codex-only — it is now every runtime, which strengthens that comment's
own argument for lazy resolution. The generated .cjs sibling needs no edit: it
is gitignored build output, not a tracked file.

Minor 3 — src/commonjs-marker.cts had no CONTEXT.md entry, unlike every peer
module, and CONTEXT.md is the #2 co-change partner of bin/install.js. Added,
including the fail-closed posture and the never-throws contract.

Minor 6 — the plugins//extensions/ marker shadows the config root for all .js
siblings, so an OpenCode/Kilo user's ESM plugin/*.js stays broken. That is
exactly what #2544's Fix section prescribed and it is disclosed in the PR body,
but the PR body is not documentation. It now lives in the OpenCode section of
docs/how-to/install-on-your-runtime.md, stated as a real constraint rather than
a pure improvement, with the .ts mitigation and a fallback for ESM plugins.

* test(#2544): attribute the CommonJS marker in the emitted-provenance rules

The differential emitted-attribution gate (#2723, landed on `next` after this
branch was cut) went red on the macOS shards once this PR rebased onto it. Two
distinct causes, both real gaps rather than noise:

1. `plugins/package.json` and `extensions/package.json` matched NO rule — the
   `native-plugin` rule covers `*.{js,cjs,mjs}` only, so the marker read as an
   unattributed emitted family.
2. `hooks/package.json` fell through to `hooks-built`, which attributes an
   emitted `hooks/<X>` to a repo source `hooks/<X>`. There is no
   `hooks/package.json` in the repo, so it resolved to a nonexistent path.

Cause 2 is exactly the failure already documented three lines above it for
Copilot's `gsd-session.json` — "a code literal, not a built script" — so the fix
follows that precedent rather than inventing one: `package.json` is excluded
from `hooks-built` the same way, and a dedicated `commonjs-marker` rule
attributes the family across all four roots it can appear in (both hooks roots
plus `plugins`/`extensions`) to the sources that actually emit it.

Deliberately a RULE, not an entry in tests/emitted-drift-ack.json. An ack is for
a one-off ripple and goes stale by design — the gate fails a stale ack precisely
so it cannot pre-clear the next change on that path. These markers are a
permanent part of the emitted tree from #2544 onward, so they need standing
attribution.

Verified by reproducing the CI failure locally with GSD_EMITTED_BASE: 3
provenance errors + 12 unattributed paths before, 35/35 green after.

* fix(#2544): route the #2717 hooks-surface marker helpers through commonjs-marker

#2717 landed a second copy of ensureCommonJsMarker/removeCommonJsMarkerIfGsdOwned
in src/runtime-hooks-surface.cts for the runtimes that stage .js hooks via
dedicated paths (cursor/windsurf/codex). That copy had drifted from this PR's
module on the two properties that matter:

  - ownership probe: `fs.existsSync` FOLLOWS symlinks and reports false for a
    DANGLING one, so a dangling package.json symlink classified as absent and
    the write went straight through it. Demonstrated: against the pre-fix copy,
    ensureCommonJsMarker() on a hooks/ dir holding a dangling package.json
    symlink returns true and creates {"type":"commonjs"} OUTSIDE that directory.
  - create: a plain writeFileSync leaves the classify->write window open, where
    commonjs-marker creates with flag:'wx' (O_EXCL).

Both helpers now delegate to src/commonjs-marker.cts, which is what this PR's
own docstring already claimed was the single place these rules are enforced.
Exported signatures are unchanged (still boolean), so bin/install.js and the
#2717 tests are unaffected.

The new subtest is the only coverage that fails if the duplicate is ever
reintroduced — the two implementations agree on every non-adversarial input, so
the existing suites pass against both.

* test(#2544): pin the stagedHooks gate on zcode, not windsurf

The Minor-5 coverage picked windsurf because hostBehaviors.skipSharedHooksInstall
kept it out of the shared hooks bundle, so GSD staged nothing into hooks/ and the
marker was correctly absent.

#2717 changed that premise: cursor/windsurf/codex now stage their .js hooks via
dedicated paths and get the marker beside those scripts. Measured on this tree,
windsurf stages 2 .js hooks and receives a marker — so the assertion was pinning
behaviour that is now wrong, not the gate it was written for.

ZCode is the durable choice: per #1821 it has hooksSurface:'none' AND no plugin
surface to spawn hooks, so GSD stages no .js there by either route (measured: 0
staged, no marker). The property under test is unchanged — a user-created hooks/
directory GSD never fills stays marker-free.

* test(#2544): use the shared cleanup helper in the migration test

Addresses the review's Major 1. The suppression's stated reason — "no helpers
import available" — was not correct: tests/helpers.cjs exports cleanup, and the
other test file added in this same PR imports it (tests/commonjs-marker.test.cjs).

The local reimplementation dropped two protections that are live on this repo's
windows-latest lane: the CWD guard (Windows cannot remove a directory that is the
current working directory) and the 20 x 250ms retry budget that absorbs the
deferred-scan handle Windows Defender holds on newly-written files.

Local function and suppression both removed; local/no-raw-rmsync-in-tests now
passes without one.

* test(#2544): expect hooks/package.json for the #2717 runtimes

The fresh-install contract table predates #2717, which stages cursor/windsurf/
codex .js hooks via dedicated paths and writes the CommonJS marker beside them.
All three therefore now receive hooks/package.json legitimately.

Measured on this tree: codex stages 3 .js hooks, cursor 6, windsurf 2 — each with
the marker; cline/copilot/trae/zcode stage none and get none, so their contracts
are unchanged.

* fix(#2544): gate the #2717 marker writes on having staged something

The three dedicated marker writers #2717 added ran unconditionally. Each one
mkdirs hooks/ up front and stages its scripts conditionally on the source
existing, so with an absent or empty hook source they created a directory,
filled it with nothing, and marked it as GSD's anyway.

That is the same write-into-someone-else's-territory this issue is about, and
installSharedHooksBundle already guards the identical case with `stagedHooks`.
The dedicated paths now carry the matching gate:

  - cursor / windsurf: `installedScripts.size > 0`
  - codex: a new `codexStagedHooks` flag. The enclosing guard only proves that
    hooks/dist EXISTS; it says nothing about whether any CODEX_HOOKS_TO_COPY
    entry landed.

Covered for cursor and windsurf by driving each writer against a src tree whose
hooks/ dir is empty. The codex leg is defensive and deliberately uncovered: its
trigger state needs a package tree where hooks/dist exists but holds none of the
allowlist, which is not constructible from a real checkout.

* test(#2544): scope the commonjs-marker sources per root

The rule declared one flat source list for every marker root, so
`extensions/package.json` was attributed to runtime-hooks-surface.cts (which
never writes there) and `.kimi/hooks/package.json` to install-engine.cts.

That is not merely untidy. emitted-diff.cjs accepts the FIRST satisfied source,
so a flat list containing bin/install.js let any change anywhere in that
13k-line file authorise marker drift for every root — the blanket escape hatch
this file's own agents-verbatim comment refuses for exactly the same reason.

Sources are now derived per root from ctx.rel. Note the rule ctx is
`{ rel, runtime }` and carries no `root`, so keying on ctx.root would have sent
every path down one branch silently.

* test(#2544): state precisely what the zcode assertion pins

The comment claimed the test pinned installSharedHooksBundle's `stagedHooks`
gate. It does not, and neither did the windsurf version it replaced: zcode
declares skipSharedHooksInstall, so the outer guard skips that helper entirely
and the gate is never evaluated. The test passes on the runtime exclusion.

What it does pin — the outcome a pre-existing, GSD-untouched hooks/ stays
marker-free — is still worth having, and is what the review asked for. The two
`staging zero hook scripts` tests are the ones that pin a real staged-nothing
gate. Comment corrected rather than left implying coverage that is not there.

33fd203ccd test(#2966): loop QA walk — drive real scenarios across all five loop steps (#2976)
* test(#2966): loop QA walk — drive real scenarios across all five loop steps

Adds a headless walk that carries accumulating project state across
discuss -> plan -> execute -> verify -> ship against one temp project,
layered over the existing tests/helpers.cjs runGsdTools substrate.

Findings carry severity. A violation breaks a stated contract and fails
the build; a smell is legal under today's implementation but structurally
questionable, is recorded, and never reddens CI. Without that split an
oracle set derived from current behavior can only ever confirm current
behavior -- the harness could not say "this works and is still wrong".

The end-to-end test asserts the walk produces at least one smell: a QA
harness that reports nothing on a first run against a real engine is far
more likely mis-specified than the engine is perfect. It deliberately does
not pin smell ids or counts, which would re-freeze current behavior.

First run against the real engine: 0 violations, 3 smell classes --
init returns agents_dir outside the project tree; smart-entry emits prose
unconditionally so routing cannot be asserted; state-snapshot reports a
missing STATE.md through a payload key with exit 0.

Also fixes tests/fixtures/index.cjs: createFixture with git:true and
planning:false staged nothing, so the commit failed with "nothing to
commit". That combination was unreachable until greenfield needed it.

Extends RULESET.TESTS.feedback-loop-convergence from estimation to the
loop itself. Design lock: docs/adr/2966-loop-qa-walk.md.

* test(#2966): wire fault injection, make perturbations discriminating

Independent review found tests/qa/mutations.cjs entirely unwired: 462
lines exercised only by their own unit tests, with no mutation hook in
the scenario DSL and no scenario applying one, while the module header
and the ADR described fault injection in the present tense. Dead code
documented as live.

Adds a `mutate` step field, three perturbation scenarios, and a wiring
detector: a self-test scenario whose expectations are known-false and
which MUST fail. The previous anti-vacuity check asserted only that the
walk produced a smell, which passes on well-known engine behavior
regardless of whether the harness wiring works.

First perturbation attempt produced zero signal -- progress does not
structurally parse ROADMAP.md, so a corrupted roadmap sailed through. A
perturbation that cannot fail is the same defect in a new costume.
Probes now target roadmap get-phase, and each mutated step runs a clean
baseline first so `mutationObserved` records whether the corruption
changed anything at all.

Also clears four review findings: classify() returned PROSE for exit-0
with empty stdout; `warnings` was structurally unpopulatable on the
success path (execFileSync discards it) and is now documented as
error-path-only; read-only-idempotence passed vacuously when asked to
check idempotence without the data to check it; the ADR miscounted the
oracles.

Discrimination matrix across 8 mutations x 6 commands: bom,
duplicate-phase-id and escaped-pipes are absorbed silently by every
probed surface, and progress / smart-entry / roadmap validate never
reacted to any mutation.

* test(#2966): add path-containment guard for scenario-supplied targets

Security review found scenario-supplied paths joined to the temp project
with no containment check. step.mutate.target and agent.write keys were
validated only as non-empty strings, so a target of ../../../../etc/hosts
reached fs.unlinkSync / fs.writeFileSync / fs.symlinkSync outside the
project. The symlink mutation was worst: it read the traversed file, wrote
a sibling copy, deleted the original and symlinked it back.

Not exploitable today -- all shipped scenarios target .planning/ROADMAP.md
and scenarios are repo-committed, not runtime input. Fixed anyway: it is a
live primitive any future scenario or copied helper can reach.

Adds tests/qa/paths.cjs with resolveWithin(): rejects absolute paths, NUL
bytes and empty input, normalizes separators unconditionally, and requires
containment by path segment so a sibling like <base>-evil is not treated as
inside. Non-existent targets resolve via nearest existing ancestor rather
than falling back to a lexical compare. Scenario load now rejects traversing
or absolute targets up front.

oracles.cjs previously carried its own copy of the containment logic; both
now share paths.cjs, since a duplicated containment check is exactly the
divergence class this repo calls out.

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

* test(#2966): complete trajectory corpus, report emission, boundary-aware oracle

Adds the remaining trajectories and drives all 11 mutations end-to-end.
20 scenarios, 72 steps, 0 violations, 25 smells.

Adds qa-report.json with per-step verdicts and a copy-pasteable repro
command, plus --keep / GSD_QA_KEEP=1 to preserve a failing tree. A repro
line for a tree that was not preserved is marked NOT RUNNABLE rather than
emitting a command pointing at a deleted directory.

monotonic-progress is now boundary-aware. Two scenarios had been trimmed
to stop the oracle complaining at a milestone rollover, which destroys the
signal the trajectory exists to produce. Evidence: counters legitimately
reset to zero at milestone complete, but the payload milestone_version
lags until a new ROADMAP.md is written. So the oracle now scopes by
milestone plus workstream, keeps a same-scope decrease as a violation, and
records a boundary crossing as a smell. Both scenarios walk the real
boundary again.

Standards review fixes: oracle findings now carry a structured subject so
tests assert on typed fields instead of substring-matching the free-form
detail string, resolveWithin throws a typed EPATHESCAPE error, and the
absolute-path predicate scenario.cjs had re-implemented now comes from
paths.cjs.

* test(#2966): fix silently-vacuous fixtures and guard the class

Every fixture carried its #2371 provenance comment BEFORE the frontmatter
block, and extractFrontmatter returns {} when anything precedes the opening
---. So every scenario reading status/phase/name was operating on an empty
object and reporting green. Nine fixtures repositioned; the comment stays,
it just moves below the closing ---.

Both UAT fixtures lacked a parser-recognized result block, so
evaluateUatPassed saw checks.length===0 and could never return passed:true.
The uat-fail-then-remediate scenario could not have proven a remediation.
Its expect block only inspected blockers, which is empty before AND after,
which is why the corpus never noticed. Both fixtures now carry real result
blocks and the scenario asserts passed and no_uat_artifacts on each side of
the flip.

The actual deliverable is the guard: a fixture-integrity block asserting
every fixture with a frontmatter shape parses to a non-empty object, that
every fixture carries its provenance marker, and that the two UAT fixtures
produce opposite verdicts through the real evaluateUatPassed. The first
guard written required --- at byte 0, which would never have fired on the
regression it exists to prevent; it was rewritten and proven by deliberately
re-breaking a fixture.

No engine defect here. no_uat_artifacts means no parsed check items, not no
UAT files, and it was reporting correctly on fixtures that had none.

* test(#2966): make the walk report — smell ratchet, baseline, CI job

The harness computed smells into a gitignored qa-report.json that nothing
read. In CI it surfaced nothing at all: violations failed the build, but the
half of the tool that says "this works and is still wrong" was inert. A QA
tool nobody hears is decoration.

Adds a ratchet on the same idiom this repo already uses three times over
(the regression-test-name allowlist, the emitted-drift acks, the size
baseline): a committed smell-baseline.json, per-PR acknowledgment fragments
under tests/qa/smell-acks/, and a ratchet script wired into CI.

The design invariant is preserved exactly. A smell still never fails a build
on its own merits. What fails is an UNACKNOWLEDGED NEW smell -- the absence
of a decision -- leaving an author two honest exits: fix it, or record a
fragment with a real reason. An empty reason is rejected. The baseline is
shrink-only, so a fixed smell must prune its entry. Violations remain
unacknowledgeable.

Fingerprints are composed only from stable fields (oracle id, scenario,
argv, subject discriminator) -- never temp paths, timestamps or counts.
Verified byte-identical across two runs in separate temp dirs; an unstable
fingerprint would have false-positived every CI run.

CI gains a qa-loop-walk job that runs the suite and the ratchet, uploads the
report with `if: always()` (it matters most when it failed), and renders a
summary a reviewer reads without downloading anything.

Also fixes the report runner invoking main() unconditionally on require, so
importing it double-ran every scenario and clobbered its own output.

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

* test(#2966): every smell terminates in a defect or a fixed detector

The baseline accepted a smell with a free-text reason. That is a mechanism
for designing smells in -- an allowlist nobody revisits. The harness is
brand new, so nothing it found is inherited legacy; every finding is a
FIRST finding. Each must now terminate in exactly one of two states:

  REAL           -> an assigned defect, entry carries the issue number
  FALSE POSITIVE -> the detector is wrong and gets fixed, never baselined

There is no third "accepted with a good explanation" state, so the ratchet
now requires a positive-integer `issue` on every entry. A reason may remain
as a human note but can never substitute. `--update` refuses to invent
issue numbers: a new smell is written with `issue: null` and a TODO, and
the next plain run rejects it, forcing triage rather than accumulation.

Working the 21 existing entries through that rule found 16 were my own
detectors being wrong:

value-hygiene (10) flagged $.agents_dir, a field whose entire contract is
to point at the install tree outside any project. Fixed with a leaf-key
allowlist of contractually-external fields, verified as the only such key
in the init payload. Genuinely unexpected out-of-project paths still smell.

monotonic-progress (6) fired on legitimate boundary crossings -- milestone
v1.0 to v2.0, workstream beta to alpha -- and on one payload carrying no
scope fields at all, where a change cannot even be known. Scope changes now
reset silently and scope-less observations are skipped. The same-scope
decrease remains a violation; that is the real invariant and is regression-
guarded.

The five survivors are real and now tracked: soft-error-exit-zero (#2980),
untyped-success (#2979). Baseline 25 -> 5.

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

* test(#2966): keep the ratchet out of the tarball, unpin the qa CI job

The remote matrix returned failed -- 3 unique failures, identical on
node22 and node24, both root causes in this branch's own diff.

The ratchet lives under scripts/, which ships in the npm tarball, and it
requires three modules under tests/, which does not. In a published
install it is MODULE_NOT_FOUND at load. This is exactly the class the
#2858 guard was added to catch, and it caught it. Fixed the way #2858
fixed the same shape for its own repo-only CI script: a targeted files[]
negation, so the ratchet stays in the repo for CI and out of the tarball.
Not solved by moving or inlining the required modules -- the ratchet must
keep using the same code the harness uses, or the two drift.

Verified both directions: the script is no longer in the pack list, and
build-hooks.js, fix-slash-commands.cjs and gen-capability-registry.cjs are
all still shipped. Over-negating there would have broken installs, since
bin/install.js requires them.

The qa-loop-walk job also carried CI_REBASE_BASE_SHA copied from a
neighbouring job without the paired GSD_EMITTED_BASE, which the #2854
invariant forbids by name: diverging them makes the differential compare a
tree against a baseline from a different commit. The job runs only the qa
suite and the ratchet and invokes no emitted-attribution test, so it needs
no rebase-pinned base at all -- the step was removed rather than paired.

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

* test(#2966): stop monotonic-progress going blind on scope-less payloads

The full remote suite caught a false NEGATIVE I introduced while fixing a
false positive. Silencing the boundary-crossing noise had made the oracle
skip ANY observation lacking milestone fields -- so a minimal payload like
{total_summaries: n} produced no violation at all, and the oracle stopped
catching the exact defect it exists to catch. For a QA tool that is
strictly worse than the noise it replaced.

Scope is only indeterminate when the two observations DISAGREE about
having it:

  both scoped, same scope, decrease -> VIOLATION
  both scoped, different scope      -> reset silently
  NEITHER scoped, decrease          -> VIOLATION   (the regression)
  mixed                             -> skip the comparison

Implementing the mixed case surfaced a second blind spot: advancing the
reference point on a skipped pair lets a scope-less observation sitting
between two same-scope ones mask a real decrease. Mixed now leaves the
reference untouched. All four branches carry explicit coverage; only one
did before, which is why this shipped.

The self-test that failed was right and the code was wrong, so the code
moved. Corpus behavior is unchanged: still 5 smells, 0 new, 0 stale, 0
violations.

9ac0dfad58 chore(#2929): generalize prompt-budget into the shared context-composer seam (#2958)
* test(#2929): capture prompt-budget parity corpus pre-refactor

Phase 2 of epic #1671 generalizes prompt-budget's trim ladder into a shared
context-composer seam. Its success condition is that review-prompt output does
not change, and the only authority on "did not change" is the behavior that
shipped before the refactor. Capture that behavior now, while it is still the
live implementation.

47 characterization cases, every `expected` value computed by executing the
current implementation rather than hand-authored — the independence
CONTRIBUTING.md "Fixture provenance (#2371)" asks for.

A corpus is only worth what it can detect, so this one was validated by
mutation rather than assumed. Five deliberate defects were injected and each
must be caught by at least one case:

  - the note reserve deducted unconditionally instead of only under pressure
  - the pressure test relaxed from `>` to `>=`
  - a no-op head-shrink still setting the shrunk flag
  - the per-plan floor dropped from the proportional share
  - drop order reversed

Two of those exposed real holes in the first cut of this corpus, and the cases
that close them exist because of it:

  - `>=` was caught by NOTHING. At exact cap the only trimmable fragment was a
    floored plan group, and the 1024-char floor absorbed the entire trim, so the
    mutation was byte-invisible. A3b/A3c put a droppable at exactly the cap,
    which makes the strict inequality observable as context kept vs omitted.

  - No case reached proportional-truncate at all — B6 and B7 both hard-failed
    the min-set pre-check first, leaving planTruncationPct at 0 across every
    case and the floor semantics entirely unexercised. Rebudgeted to 700 and
    1100 so the min-set fits and the truncate step is actually reached; they now
    record 40.20% and 48.80%.

The A4/A10 families sweep the pressure boundary from both sides, which is where
this function has regressed before: CONTEXT.md's
LEARNING.prompt-budget.boundary-gap records PR #3708 shipping two regressions
that only fired when the baseline sat inside the NOTE_RESERVE_TOKENS band,
because the suite paired a trivially-fitting budget with a trivially-overflowing
one and never sampled between them. A4 pins that nothing is trimmed from the cap
down to 81 tokens under it; A10 pins that pressure fires at +1. Together with
A3b/A3c they satisfy row (d) of RULESET.TESTS.boundary-coverage.fixtures.

Two facts the corpus establishes that the design notes had wrong:

  - "" and null sections are NOT distinguished. applyBudget uses truthy checks
    throughout, so an empty-string section is treated as absent: not rendered,
    not dropped, never recorded in `omitted`. B13b pins this while the ladder is
    actively trimming, where only the non-empty `research` is dropped.

  - Sizing matters. B12/B13 were first written at a budget where both hard-failed
    the min-set check and returned "", so comparing them compared two empty
    strings and proved nothing.

Committed as its own commit, ahead of the refactor, and regenerated against the
pre-refactor implementation, so the oracle is demonstrably independent of the
change it will adjudicate.

Refs #2929

* refactor(#2929): extract the context-composer seam from prompt-budget

Epic #1671 needs prompt-budget's budget-trimming logic for a second consumer —
per-runtime artifact emission — but it is walled inside the cross-AI review
pipeline. Lift it into a shared seam so later phases can call it, without
changing what the review pipeline emits.

ADR-1671 specifies the composer as "priority + binary-search cutoff to a
per-runtime budget". Read against the code it generalizes, that contract cannot
express the thing being generalized. applyBudget is not a cutoff: it is a fixed
five-step ladder in which each section carries its own shrink strategy, and only
three of its eight sections are ever dropped. PROJECT.md is head-shrunk to N
lines; plans are proportionally tail-truncated with a per-plan 1024-byte floor;
instructions and roadmap are never touched at all. A cutoff composer sorts by
priority and discards the tail — it has no way to say "shrink this one",
"truncate that one but never below 1 KB each", or "these three are the only
droppables, in this order". Building to the literal contract and routing
prompt-budget through it would have silently changed review-prompt output, which
is the one outcome this phase forbids.

So shrink strategies are the core abstraction here, and cutoff becomes one
strategy among them — the right one for per-runtime emission in Phases 3-4, not
for this ladder. That is an elaboration of the ADR's intent, not a departure
from it, and ADR-1671 is updated to say so.

Three decisions worth stating:

  - The composer DECIDES; the caller RENDERS. composeWithinBudget returns a plan
    of surviving fragments and never a string. assemblePrompt's rendering is
    prompt-shaped (`## Roadmap`, `### <file>`, the note in position two), and
    owning it in the composer would force emission to adopt prompt-shaped
    rendering. The split is what lets one seam serve both consumers.

  - The budget unit is INJECTED via `measure(text)`. prompt-budget passes its
    chars/4 estimator; emission will pass a byte counter, which ADR-1671 requires
    for emission caps. The existing code converts a token budget to a character
    budget with a hardcoded `* 4`; that assumption is now an explicit
    `charsPerUnit` inverse, which is precisely what a byte unit needs in order to
    reuse this.

  - The entry point is `composeWithinBudget`, not `applyBudget`. That name
    already exists twice — src/prompt-budget.cts and src/graphify.cts, the latter
    being an unrelated graph-edge budget. A third would make every symbol search
    in this repo ambiguous, and it already misresolves: preflight and impact
    queries for "applyBudget" return graphify's.

Behavior is unchanged and proven so: all 47 characterization cases reproduce
byte-identically, and the corpus is mutation-validated rather than merely green
(see the preceding commit). prompt-budget.cts drops from 436 to 343 lines and
from eighteen mutable accumulators to two, both inside a helper copied verbatim.

estimateTokens deliberately stays in prompt-budget and keeps its exact math:
src/phase-estimation.cts re-exports it as measureTokens, and CONTEXT.md pins
plan estimates and recorded actuals to that same scale, so moving or changing it
would silently break the calibration loop.

Refs #2929

* docs(#2929): document the context-composer seam and amend ADR-1671

Adds the INVENTORY row, the CONTEXT.md glossary entry (a PR gate for new
domain modules), and a mutation-matrix entry for the new module.

The ADR amendment is the substantive part. ADR-1671 specified the composer as
"priority + binary-search cutoff to a per-runtime budget". Implementing Phase 2
established that a cutoff alone cannot express the function the platform
generalizes, so the ADR now records shrink strategies as the core abstraction
with cutoff as one strategy among them, reserved for per-runtime emission in
Phases 3-4. Recording it in the ADR matters because Phases 3-6 are planned
against that contract and would otherwise be planned against a mechanism that
does not work.

The mutation-matrix entry is not bookkeeping. Stryker scores per module against
a named .cjs, so relocating the ladder out of prompt-budget.cjs would leave the
extracted code unmeasured while prompt-budget's own score floated free of the
logic it used to cover. context-composer gets its own entry at the same floor.

Refs #2929

* test(#2929): pin the effectiveBudget rounding mode in the parity corpus

An isolated correctness review found a real blind spot: mutating
`Math.floor` to `Math.round` in the effectiveBudget calculation failed ZERO of
the 47 corpus cases. Every (budget, safetyMarginPct) pair in the generator
happened to produce a whole number, so floor, round and ceil all agreed and the
rounding mode was entirely unpinned by a corpus whose whole job is to pin
observable behavior.

Three cases fix that by straddling the .5 boundary:

  A11  95 * 0.90  = 85.5   floor 85, round 86  -> the two disagree
  A12  97 * 0.90  = 87.3   floor and round agree; ceil (88) does not
  A13  93 * 0.85  = 79.05  same guard at a non-multiple-of-10 margin, so the
                           margin arithmetic is exercised and not just the budget

A11 alone catches the round mutation; all three catch ceil. Regenerated against
the pre-refactor implementation (`git show 9557f8552:src/prompt-budget.cts`), so
the expanded corpus keeps the independence property the original capture had.

The corpus is now mutation-validated against seven injected defects, every one
caught: unconditional note reserve, `>` relaxed to `>=`, no-op head-shrink
setting its flag, the truncate floor ignored, drop order reversed, and both
rounding-mode changes.

Refs #2929

* feat(#2929): flexReserve floors and the byte-stable isolate prefix

Two of issue #2929's "Done when" items were unimplemented rather than deferred,
and an isolated review flagged them alongside my own audit. Both are part of
ADR-1671's composer contract, so shipping the seam without them would have left
Phases 3-4 building against a contract that does not exist yet.

flexReserve is a per-fragment floor in measure units that every strategy must
respect, which is what makes it different from the pre-existing floorChars: that
one is a chars-denominated detail of proportional-truncate alone and is retained
unchanged. A floored fragment is never dropped, is never head-shrunk below its
floor, and raises its own proportional cap. A fragment already smaller than its
floor is untouchable outright. Metadata gains `floored`, listing the ids whose
floor actually prevented a trim — a guarantee no caller can observe is a
guarantee no test can hold you to.

isolate marks the byte-stable canonical prefix the ADR calls for: never trimmed,
never dropped, but still counted, because a prefix excluded from accounting
would silently under-count real context. Metadata gains `isolatePrefix` so a
caller can hash or assert on the exact bytes. Declaring an isolate fragment
after a non-isolate one throws: a prefix that is not at the front is not a
prefix, and accepting it would make the cross-runtime stability claim
meaningless.

Adds tests/context-composer.test.cjs for the exact new semantics and
tests/context-composer.property.test.cjs for the five invariants, including the
budget-monotonicity property the issue names explicitly. Both are registered in
the mutation matrix, since coverage does not migrate with relocated code.

prompt-budget uses neither feature, and its output is unchanged: all 50 corpus
cases still reproduce byte-identically.

Refs #2929

* chore(#2929): allowlist the prompt-budget parity suite

The parity corpus needs its own test file and that makes prompt-budget a
three-file module against a limit of two. The lint offers consolidation or an
allowlist entry with justification; the entry is the right call here.

Consolidation would mean folding the characterization suite into
prompt-budget.test.cjs, which is the one thing that should not happen to it. The
parity suite is a distinct concern with a distinct lifecycle: it is generated
rather than hand-written, it is named by scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs as its own
scoring target, and its failure means something categorically different from a
unit-test failure — not "this behavior is wrong" but "observable output moved".
Burying it inside a general unit file would obscure exactly that signal.

The allowlist is an identity ratchet, so this entry pins today's three exact
filenames: adding a fourth still fails, and dropping back to two requires
removing the entry.

Refs #2929

* fix(#2929): register the new module with two gates it was missing

The remote matrix caught three defects that no local check could, because the
local runner is blocked in this repo and these suites had therefore never
executed. Eight failures, identical on node22 and node24, so nothing
environment-shaped.

Two are the new-module ripple. A net-new src/*.cts lands in six places and this
change had reached four of them — .gitignore, INVENTORY, the manifest, and the
CONTEXT.md glossary — while missing the ESLint ignore list (tsc OUTPUTS must not
be linted; repo-invariants asserts linted-xor-ignored) and the mutation ratchet
baseline (a deliberate review-visible mirror of the matrix floors, which every
COVERED module must carry). Both are now registered, the ratchet at the same
floor of 66 the matrix declares.

The third was a test asserting an outcome it had made impossible. It set
budget:1 alongside a 400-char required fragment, so the group budget came out at
-99 and the proportional-truncate step was skipped entirely — the deliberate
"non-positive group budget is skipped, never clamped" rule inherited from the
original ladder. Nothing was trimmed, and the test then asserted a truncation.
Rebudgeted so the step actually runs, with the arithmetic written out in a
comment so the next reader does not have to re-derive why 120 rather than 80.

Fixing that surfaced a genuine bug in the composer. `floored` is documented as
recording fragments whose flexReserve prevented a trim that would otherwise have
happened, but the push sat in the else-branch of "content did not change", so it
only fired when nothing was trimmed at all. A fragment truncated to a
reserve-raised cap has also had a trim prevented — 40 characters' worth in the
test above — and was silently absent from the field that exists to make the
guarantee observable. The condition was already right; it was in the wrong
branch. Now recorded on both paths: a drop prevented outright, and a truncation
capped higher than the share alone would have allowed.

Parity is unaffected — prompt-budget never sets flexReserve, so the branch is
unreachable from every corpus path, and all 50 cases still match.

4f6935e29b fix(#2717): write CommonJS marker for cursor/windsurf/codex staged .js hooks (#2846)
* test(#2717): CommonJS marker for cursor/windsurf/codex staged .js hooks

Cursor/windsurf (skipSharedHooksInstall) and codex (!isCodex gate) stage .js
hook scripts via dedicated paths that bypass installSharedHooksBundle — the
only writer of the {"type":"commonjs"} marker. Under a config root declaring
{"type":"module"}, Node loaded those scripts as ESM and every require()
failed with 'require is not defined', silently disabling the runtime's hooks.

Adds regression tests (RED first, fix lands next commit):
- parametrized cursor/windsurf/codex install asserts hooks/package.json exists
  with exactly GSD's marker content;
- end-to-end: a cursor require()-using hook loads under a planted ESM-typed
  config root without the require-is-not-defined error;
- the ensureCommonJsMarker / removeCommonJsMarkerIfGsdOwned contract: GSD
  markers are removed on uninstall, user-authored package.json is never touched.

* fix(#2717): write CommonJS marker for cursor/windsurf/codex staged .js hooks

The {"type":"commonjs"} marker lived only inside installSharedHooksBundle,
which cursor/windsurf (skipSharedHooksInstall) and codex (!isCodex gate) never
reach. Their .js hooks are staged by dedicated paths, so under a config root
declaring {"type":"module"} Node loaded them as ESM and every require()
failed with 'require is not defined', silently disabling those runtimes' hooks.

Decouple the marker write into a shared helper so any code path that stages
.js hooks can ensure it lands in the SAME directory as the scripts:

- src/runtime-hooks-surface.cts: add ensureCommonJsMarker(dir) +
  removeCommonJsMarkerIfGsdOwned(dir) (byte-identical content to
  installSharedHooksBundle's marker; preserves a user-authored package.json on
  both write and uninstall). Call ensureCommonJsMarker(hooksDir) from
  writeCursorHooksJson + writeWindsurfHooksJson; call
  removeCommonJsMarkerIfGsdOwned on their matching remove paths. Export both.
- bin/install.js: call hooksSurface.ensureCommonJsMarker after the codex hook
  copy; call hooksSurface.removeCommonJsMarkerIfGsdOwned in the generic
  hooks-removal loop (safe no-op where no marker exists).

No change to which runtimes receive the shared bundle, the !isCodex gate,
skipSharedHooksInstall, or kimi/kimi-code/cline/copilot/trae/zcode (all
unchanged — audit in the diagnosis). RED @ dbb7d2bb (6 failures: 3 missing
markers + the ESM require error + missing helpers); GREEN pending.

* docs(#2717): changeset fragment (pr:0, backfilled post-PR)

* chore(#2717): regen codex/cursor/windsurf install-tree fixtures + attribution ack

The fix adds hooks/package.json to those three runtimes' install trees (the
new CommonJS marker), so the golden install-tree fixtures gain one path each
(regenerated via npm run gen:install-tree). emitted-attribution (ADR-2719)
flags the 3 emitted hooks/package.json paths under the hooks-built rule;
acknowledge them. Also drops 5 spent ack entries left by now-merged PRs
(#2694 code-review.md/code-review-fix.md, #2695 worker/registry, #2794
review.md) — they are stale on this branch (base already carries them).

* fix(#2717): codex ESM-root behavioral test + hooks-built provenance for package.json

Two review-driven follow-ups on the #2717 fix:
- Adversarial review noted the ESM-root behavioral test covered only cursor;
  refactor it into a helper and add a codex case (the !isCodex-gated path most
  likely to regress, whose marker write lives in bin/install.js). gsd-check-update.js
  require()s at module load, so it surfaces the ESM failure immediately.
- emitted-provenance flagged hooks/package.json as 'attributed source does not
  exist' — the marker is code-derived (a fixed literal emitted by
  ensureCommonJsMarker at install time), not built from a tracked source. Route
  the hooks-built rule's sources/transforms for package.json to the surface
  source file, mirroring the existing .cmd-shim sub-family.

* chore(#2717): drop now-redundant hooks/package.json attribution ack

The hooks-built provenance routing (prior commit) now self-attributes the
emitted hooks/package.json to src/runtime-hooks-surface.cts, which IS in this
diff — so the attribution is self-explaining and the emitted-drift-ack entry
became stale. Delete the (now-empty) ack file per ADR-2719's empty-file rule.

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): flip ADR-2719 to Accepted and update contributor docs

Status: Proposed -> Accepted. Regenerated docs/adr/README.md index.

CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/TESTING-SUITES.md, and CONTEXT.md (RULESET.
EMITTED_ATTRIBUTION, RULESET.WORKFLOW_SIZE_BUDGET, RULESET.
AGENT_SIZE_BUDGET, and the Emitted Artifact Provenance glossary entry)
no longer point at the deleted golden-install-parity fixtures, size
baselines, gen:golden, UPDATE_GOLDEN, or the setup:merge-driver /
git-merge-regen-driver.cjs bridge. Editing shipped content now
requires zero manual fixture regeneration, documented against the
differential attribution check instead of the deleted commands.

* 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

* 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.

60bc6ddd6e fix(#2568): commit the debug session doc on the manager-driven terminal path (#2731)
* test(#2568): failing-first contract for the debug manager's doc commit

agents/gsd-debug-session-manager.md contains zero occurrences of 'commit', so on
the manager-driven path — the normal /gsd-debug flow — nothing consults
commit_docs and session docs are left untracked. The step exists only in
gsd-debugger.md, which does not reach the end of a multi-cycle session.

Two layers. The spec placement is asserted against the shipped agent text because
that text is what the orchestrator executes; the commit_docs gate the fix relies
on is exercised behaviorally through the CLI in temp git projects, because 'the
CLI no-ops when disabled' is the assumption that makes calling it unconditionally
correct — asserting it in prose would be assuming the load-bearing part.

The most important case is the negative: CONTINUE_REQUIRED is non-terminal and
must NOT commit. A fix that satisfied the positive cases by committing
unconditionally would strand a half-finished session looking done, which is worse
than the bug.

RED expected on the five spec assertions; the three CLI gate tests pin existing
behavior and pass both sides.

* fix(#2568): commit the debug session doc on the manager-driven terminal path

agents/gsd-debug-session-manager.md contained zero occurrences of "commit", so on
the normal /gsd-debug flow nothing ever consulted commit_docs and session docs
were left untracked — reproduced by the reporter across three consecutive real
sessions.

An obligation left behind during a responsibility move. gsd-debugger.md commits
the doc at :1214, but that runs only when the debugger carries a fix to completion
inside a single spawn. The multi-cycle manager took over checkpointing, fix
application, archival to resolved/, and the terminal summary — every step that
finishes a session — without the commit step. The debugger's copy still exists and
still works on its own path, so "is this handled anywhere" answered yes.

The manager now commits before both terminal shapes, and explicitly NOT on
CONTINUE_REQUIRED. That exclusion is the load-bearing part: the manager's own
contract already forbids fabricating a terminal summary on that path, and
committing there would be the same lie in git form — a half-finished session
stranded looking done. CHECKPOINT REACHED likewise does not commit.

Two facts kept the fix small. The manager already carries the gsd_run preamble
(:96, used at :97 for resolve-model), so no new plumbing. And cmdCommit
(src/commands.cts:809-814) already gates on commit_docs and returns
skipped_commit_docs_false when disabled — so the agent calls it unconditionally
and correctness follows from the CLI rather than from a second copy of the config
check that could drift. Calling git commit directly was rejected for exactly that
reason: it would bypass a user's explicit commit_docs:false.

In-session fix code is staged by specific file, never git add -A, which would
sweep unrelated working-tree changes into a debug commit.

Body-only edit — frontmatter untouched, so the research-profiles/AGENTS.md ripple
does not apply. gsd-debugger.md's own commit step is preserved; the single-spawn
path still ends there, and a double commit is harmless since the second finds
nothing to stage.

Fixes #2568

* fix(#2568): bind the commit paths, define gsd_run in-block, and make the fix commit idempotent

Three defects in my own first cut, all found by the isolated adversarial pass.

1. BLOCKER — {debug_dir} was a dangling substitution. I copied it verbatim from
   the issue's suggested patch without checking scope. It is a real variable in
   gsd-core/workflows/debug.md, where the ORCHESTRATOR receives it from init JSON
   and uses it to build debug_file_path — but this agent never receives it:
   <session_parameters> declares only slug, debug_file_path, symptoms_prefilled,
   tdd_mode, goal and specialist_dispatch_enabled. An unbound token makes --files
   resolve to a nonexistent path; cmdCommit skips missing explicit files, staging
   stays empty, and the doc silently never commits — reproducing #2568 through a
   different broken path. Same class as #2684's dangling placeholders. Now spelled
   literally as .planning/debug/resolved/{slug}.md, matching gsd-debugger.md:1214
   and this file's own prose.

2. MAJOR — gsd_run was undefined in the commit block's shell. Shell state does not
   persist across tool invocations, and the Step 2 preamble is ~230 lines and an
   entire spawn-and-loop earlier. gsd-debugger.md redeclares the full preamble
   immediately before each of its own call sites; the commit block now does the
   same, byte-identical to this file's existing definition.

3. MAJOR — the in-session fix commit was not idempotent. gsd-debugger.md's
   archive_session already commits the fix on the confirmed-checkpoint path, which
   is the standard find_and_fix flow, so `git add X && git commit` would hit an
   empty diff, exit non-zero, and abort the step before the summary was returned.
   Guarded with `git diff --cached --quiet || git commit`. The doc-commit half was
   already safe — query commit treats an empty diff as nothing_to_commit and exits
   0 — and that asymmetry is now stated rather than assumed.

Three tests added for exactly these, since the reviewer correctly noted the suite
would have caught none of them: every token substituted into a commit command must
be a declared session parameter; the preamble must sit in the same block as the
call with no step boundary between; and the fix commit must carry the staged-content
guard.

* fix(#2568): keep the single canonical gsd_run preamble

The previous commit added a second preamble to the commit block, on the isolated
review's theory that shell state does not persist across tool invocations. That
theory is reasonable in general and wrong for this corpus: the repo enforces
"each agent .md using gsd_run contains exactly ONE canonical preamble, before the
first gsd_run call". Adding a second broke that invariant and five suites with
it — the B-agents preamble check, runtime-launcher-parity, and three slash-
namespace guards.

The single Step 2 preamble already precedes the commit call, so coverage was
never actually missing. Reverted to one, and the test now asserts the real
property — exactly one preamble, positioned before the call that needs it —
rather than the locality I had wrongly encoded.

Recorded because the direction of the mistake matters: the review was right that
the question needed asking and wrong about the answer, and I shipped the wrong
answer without checking the invariant that already governs it.

e48eb44003 fix(#1856): give the executor-worktree refusal a handoff instead of a dead end (#2727)
* test(#1856): failing-first contract for the orchestrator cwd-drift guard handoff

The #48 guard correctly refuses to execute waves from an agent worktree, but the
refusal is a dead end: that worktree can hold committed fixes AND uncommitted
work, and "re-run from the orchestrator's own worktree" silently means
abandoning them. The reporter was left choosing between continuing from a
blocked worktree and losing the work.

The guard is shell embedded in execute-phase.md, so these tests extract the
block by a stable marker and EXECUTE it against real git fixtures — the shipped
text is the runtime contract. Covers the stranded-commit and dirty-tree report,
the integration commands, both agent- namespaces, commit-count boundaries 0/1/2,
and the constraints the guard's own comment records: it must NOT fire on an
ordinary branch, on 'agentic-refactor', or on a legitimate feature worktree under
.claude/worktrees/, and must degrade cleanly with no resolvable base or a
detached HEAD.

RED expected: the marker does not exist, so extraction fails and every case errors.

* fix(#1856): give the executor-worktree refusal a handoff instead of a dead end

The #48 cwd-drift guard correctly refuses to execute waves from an agent
worktree — its comment records why ("this is how a wrong-base merge nearly
shipped ~1000 files"), and that refusal is untouched here. The defect is that it
was a dead end.

At the moment it fires, the worktree can hold committed product work, uncommitted
product and planning changes, and the live gap-planning context. Telling the user
to "re-run from the orchestrator's own worktree" silently means abandoning all of
it, because the orchestrator worktree cannot see commits that live only on the
agent branch. The reporter was left choosing between continuing from a blocked
worktree and losing five commits plus uncommitted work.

The refusal now reports what is actually stranded — the commit count and log
against the resolved base, and the uncommitted files — followed by the concrete
integration sequence (commit here, switch to an orchestrator-safe checkout,
merge or cherry-pick, re-run) and a verify command. Nothing is claimed that is
not there: a clean worktree with no commits ahead prints the plain refusal with
no empty sections.

Every added command is diagnostic and `|| true`-guarded, so a failure degrades to
the original refusal rather than crashing before the message prints. Verified: an
unresolvable base still refuses cleanly.

Deliberately NOT done: auto-merging or auto-cherry-picking the agent branch. That
is precisely the operation #48 exists to stop the orchestrator performing from a
drifted cwd, at the moment it has least confidence about which tree is which.
Reporting beats acting here.

The guard block carries a `gsd:guard=orchestrator-cwd-drift` marker so the new
contract test can extract and EXECUTE the shipped shell against real git
fixtures rather than asserting on its characters.

* fix(#1856): report true counts, add the changeset, and document the seam

Review findings, all from the isolated adversarial pass:

- The dirty-file list was capped at 20 with no indication, so a worktree with 27
  uncommitted files reported 20 — under-informing the user about exactly what is
  stranded, which is the entire point of this change. Both lists now count BEFORE
  truncating and print "… and N more". Verified with 25 commits / 27 dirty files.
- The has-commits condition was written out twice and could drift on a future
  edit. Collapsed to a single _WT_HAS_COMMITS flag.
- The changeset fragment existed but was untracked, so it was in neither commit
  on this branch and the PR gate would have failed against real history.
- CONTEXT.md:122 documents this exact seam ("the orchestrator runs a cwd-drift
  guard at execute_waves entry…") and was not extended. Now records the handoff
  report, that the refusal condition and exit code are unchanged, and that every
  added command is diagnostic and || true-guarded.

Verified NOT a defect, correcting the review's premise: the guard block does break
when its line endings are CRLF, but .gitattributes:2 is `* text=auto eol=lf`,
which OVERRIDES core.autocrlf and forces LF on checkout on every platform
including Windows — so the shipped file is LF there too, and the installer copies
it through Node without translating endings. The reproduction (mine and the
reviewer's) required injecting CRLF by hand. It is also not fixable from inside
the script: a \r breaks the shell parse at the block's first line, before any
#1856 code runs. Neither introduced nor amplified by this change.

Also noted and left as-is by design: the review flagged that #1856's "offer an
explicit recovery option" could be read as requiring an interactive/automated
integration rather than printed instructions. Deliberate — see the commit that
added the block: auto-merging is the exact operation #48 exists to prevent the
orchestrator performing from a drifted cwd. Called out in the PR body for a
maintainer decision rather than silently chosen.

1c93df04db fix(#2711): propagate the #2517 omit-on-inherit rule to all 15 unguarded workflows (#2713)
* test(#2711): derive the omit-rule guarded set from the corpus instead of a hand list

The GUARDED array was a Goodhart metric: it reported green across 15
non-compliant workflows for no better reason than that nobody had added them to
it. The guard now derives its set — every workflow emitting a model="{…}"
dispatch site must state the omit-on-inherit/empty rule — and asserts the
derivation is non-empty so a broken scan fails rather than passes.

Rule detection stays a PROPERTY check, not a template match: plan-phase.md and
execute-phase.md state it in different words and both are correct.

RED expected on 15 workflows: audit-milestone, code-review, code-review-fix,
debug, discuss-phase-assumptions, docs-update, map-codebase, new-milestone,
new-project, quick, secure-phase, ui-phase, ui-review, validate-phase,
verify-work.

* fix(#2711): propagate the #2517 omit-on-inherit rule to all 15 unguarded workflows

15 of the 19 model=-dispatching workflows carried no omit-on-inherit/empty
guidance — 43 unguarded dispatch sites. Each would emit model="" whenever the
bound *_model resolved empty, which is the DEFAULT state on non-Claude runtimes:
the installer writes resolve_model_ids:"omit" into ~/.gsd/defaults.json for every
one of them (references/model-profiles.md:101), and resolveModelInternal returns
"" for that case (src/model-resolver.cts:383-386) and "inherit" for opus-tier
agents and the inherit profile (:395). Both 404 on runtimes without native tier
aliases — the failure #2517 documented and fixed in one file.

Each file now carries a `<!-- #2517 model-omit-on-inherit -->` blockquote naming
its own bound placeholders and linking the canonical statement in
references/model-profile-resolution.md, mirroring the `<!-- #2508
runtime-aware-dispatch -->` block already present in all 15. The rule text lives
in the reference; the workflows carry a pointer plus the one-line instruction, so
the next revision edits one file rather than fifteen.

plan-phase.md and execute-phase.md are deliberately untouched — they already
state the rule in their own wording, and the guard checks the property rather
than a template string.

No dispatch site is edited and no placeholder renamed: the #2684 binding guard
reports the same 19 files / 60 placeholders / 0 findings before and after, which
is the independence proof that this change is additive prose only. There is no
Hyrum's-Law routing change to disclose.

Placement is span-aware. An initial pass anchored to the #2508 marker, but in six
files that marker sits INSIDE the Agent(prompt="…") string, so the new paragraph's
literal model= landed in a dispatch call span and tripped the #2284 fail-closed
Hermes projection guard (bin/install.js:3704), refusing the install. Blocks are
now anchored before the opening Agent( of the span owning the first dispatch, and
verified to fall inside no span. gen:golden exits 0 across all 19 runtimes.

Review findings from the two orthogonal passes:

- The changeset body ended (#0). Repo convention across every prior fragment
  (e.g. #2617/#2693, #2608, #2605) is that the trailing (#NNN) is the ISSUE
  number, known at authoring time; only the frontmatter pr: field carries the 0
  placeholder pending backfill. (#0) would have rendered a dead link in the
  published release notes.
- new-milestone.md glued the inserted block directly under the preceding
  paragraph with no blank line, inconsistent with the other 14 insertions.
- The derived-guard non-vacuity floor was >=17 against an actual derived count
  of 19, tolerating a silent two-file regression. Tightened to >=19.

* fix(#2711): reword the omit block so it survives Hermes projection, and exempt quick.md by size

The first block wording regressed two suites on the full matrix (4 failures on
both linux-node22 and linux-node24). gen:golden passing was not sufficient
evidence — it exercises the installer's own fail-closed guard, which is
narrower than the dedicated tests.

1. tests/fix-2284-hermes-agent-delegate-task-projection.test.cjs asserts that
   the INSTALLED code-review-fix.md contains no `model=` anywhere outside a
   string literal — masked whole-file, not merely inside call spans. The block's
   backticked `model=` survived the mask. The assertion is right: on Hermes the
   projection strips the parameter because delegate_task has no per-call model
   at all, so instructing the orchestrator to "omit the model= parameter" is
   advice about a parameter that does not exist there. The block now says "the
   `model` parameter" and carries no bare `model=` token.

2. tests/prompt-injection-scan.security.test.cjs flagged quick.md at 50,164
   normalized chars against a 50,000 prompt-stuffing threshold. quick.md sits
   just under the line on next, so any insertion trips it — the situation
   review.md is already documented for in SIZE_ONLY_WORKFLOWS ("sat at 49,971
   chars — 29 below the threshold — so it was going to trip on whatever was
   added to it next"). quick.md joins it with the same justification. This is a
   size-finding exemption only: the file is still fully injection scanned, and
   every other security check still runs on it.

Because the canonical block can no longer carry a literal `model=`, the guard's
detector now accepts the `<!-- #2517 model-omit-on-inherit -->` marker as the
canonical signal, falling back to the inline-prose property for the four files
that predate it (plan-phase, execute-phase, scan, ship — all four match the
legacy branch). That is strictly stronger than word-proximity matching, and it
keeps the guard a property check rather than a template match.

Verified: derived guard 19/19 with 0 missing; the #2684 binding guard unchanged
at 19 files / 60 placeholders / 0 findings; no inserted block contains a bare
model= token; the masked-projection assertion passes for code-review-fix.md;
gen:golden exits 0 across all 19 runtimes; lint:ci exits 0.

6fb832a93d fix(#2684): bind scan.md and ship.md model dispatch to fields their workflows resolve (#2710)
* test(#2684): failing-first guard for unbound model= dispatch placeholders

Extends the #2517 omit-on-inherit bucket with a behavioral binding guard: every
model="{X}" in a workflow must name a field that workflow actually binds — an
init-payload key (queried for real), a shell assignment, or a declared parse
field. scan.md ({resolved_model}) and ship.md ({balanced_model}) substitute
names nothing emits, so the orchestrator invents the value (ADR-1411).

Also pins the shipped reference that seeded the placeholder and instructs the
#2517-forbidden model="inherit".

RED expected on scan.md, ship.md, and references/model-profile-resolution.md.

* fix(#2684): bind scan.md and ship.md model dispatch to fields their workflows resolve

scan.md:85 passed model="{resolved_model}" and ship.md:486 passed
model="{balanced_model}" — names neither workflow's init payload emits.
init.map-codebase emits mapper_model; init.phase-op emits no model field at
all. With no source for the substitution the orchestrator invents a value, so
model_overrides/model_policy are silently inert at both sites — the invisible
partial application ADR-1411 prohibits.

- scan.md: declare the init fields in a Parse JSON line and substitute
  {mapper_model}, matching its sibling map-codebase.md.
- ship.md: ref.agent is only known at runtime, so resolve it per hook via
  query resolve-model and dispatch with {HOOK_AGENT_MODEL}, following the
  same NAME=$(...) → model="{NAME}" convention every other shell-resolved
  dispatch in the corpus uses (code-review.md, secure-phase.md, ui-phase.md).
- Both sites now carry the #2517 rule: omit model= entirely when the resolved
  value is "inherit" or empty. A bare rename would have traded a dangling
  placeholder for model="", which 404s on non-Claude runtimes — an agent type
  absent from the profile table resolves to the empty string, which is exactly
  ship.md's case.
- references/model-profile-resolution.md was the seam: it shipped the
  copy-pasteable {resolved_model} snippet scan.md inherited, used the stale
  Task( spelling, and instructed passing model="inherit" outright. Rewritten
  to teach the real binding convention and the omit rule.

Two defects surfaced while fixing this and fixed inline rather than deferred:

1. ref.agent originates in a capability manifest, which may be third-party.
   Resolving it at runtime made this the first place that value reaches a
   shell command, so ship.md now validates its shape before interpolating and
   skips the hook when it fails — matching code-review.md's existing
   defense-in-depth pattern. Covered by a test that runs the shipped regex
   against real agent names and injection payloads.
2. The reference doc's omit example first placed a literal model= inside an
   Agent(...) comment, which tripped the #2284 fail-closed Hermes projection
   guard (bin/install.js:3704) and refused the install outright. Moved out of
   the call span; gen:golden is green across all 19 runtimes.

Guard tests extend the existing #2517 bucket: every model="{X}" in a workflow
must name a field that workflow binds — an init-payload key queried for real,
a shell assignment, or a declared parse field.

Behavior change (Hyrum's Law): the scan mapper now runs on the catalog-resolved
model rather than the session model. The omit path is unchanged. Disclosed in
the changeset body.

Fixes #2684

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01DPq9ovaovP2UvSVLjD4Lso

* fix(#2684): validate capability-supplied ref.agent in-context, not in the shell

The first cut of the ref.agent guard was placed after the injection point it
was meant to close. It instructed the orchestrator to substitute the untrusted
manifest value into a shell assignment and test it there:

    HOOK_AGENT="<the ref.agent value>"
    if [[ "$HOOK_AGENT" =~ ^[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]*$ ]]; then …

Substitution happens before bash parses anything, so a manifest supplying
`x"; touch /tmp/pwned; echo "` yields three statements and runs the middle one
unconditionally — the regex fires afterwards and protects nothing.

ship.md now requires the check to run in-context, the same way the workflow
already reads activeHooks ("do NOT pipe it through a shell parser"), and to
skip the hook outright on a mismatch. Only a value that has already matched
^[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]*$ ever reaches a command line. The guard test asserts
the ordering — the in-context requirement and the absence of any raw shell
assignment — not just that the pattern rejects metacharacters, since a pattern
alone was exactly what gave false assurance here.

Also corrects the empty-string explanation in references/model-profile-
resolution.md. model_profile:"inherit" resolves to the literal "inherit", not
"" (model-resolver.cts:395), and an unknown agent takes the empty-string path
via resolve_model_ids:"omit" rather than by absence alone — the doc claimed all
three produced "". The workflow instructions were already correct (omit on
"inherit" OR empty); only the rationale in the citable reference was wrong.

Both found by the isolated adversarial review pass for #2684.

28e486faf7 fix(#2608): fail closed when git add fails during commit staging (#2693)
* fix(#2608): fail closed when `git add` fails during commit staging

`cmdCommit` ignored `git add` failures. #2523 had already stopped a failed path
entering the commit pathspec, but skipping it silently left two bad outcomes,
both reproduced against the pre-fix build:

- SOME paths fail  -> `{"committed":true}`. `git commit` still ran and PARTIALLY
  committed the subset that happened to stage, under a message describing the
  full requested scope.
- EVERY path fails -> `{"reason":"nothing_to_commit"}`, which is not what
  happened and points the operator nowhere.

In both cases git's original `add` stderr was discarded, so the user saw a
downstream `commit_failed` / pathspec error naming an innocent file — the
symptom reported in the issue from a linked worktree whose git directory was
outside the managed writable root.

Staging failures are now collected and the command fails closed BEFORE
`git commit` runs, returning the issue's specified shape:

  { committed: false, hash: null, reason: "staging_failed",
    file: "<first failing path>", error: "<original git add stderr>",
    failures: [ { file, error, timed_out }, ... ] }

A timeout is distinguished as `staging_timeout` (issue AC5) using the projection's
SIGTERM+ETIMEDOUT signal — the same idiom worktree-safety.cts uses. The check is
placed ahead of the `nothing_to_commit` branch so an all-paths-failed run reports
the staging cause rather than an empty changeset.

Unchanged: successful staging still commits exactly the declared scope and leaves
unrelated staged files alone; an explicitly-named file that does not exist is
still skipped rather than staged as a deletion (#2014/#2523), and a request where
every named file is missing still reports `nothing_to_commit` — no `git add` ran,
so there is no staging failure to report.

Regression tests inject the failure by monkeypatching `execGit` on the projection
module (per CLAUDE.md, over `chmod 0o000`, which does not fault under root and
would make the tests vacuous), driven in a `node -e` child because `output()`
writes via `fs.writeSync(1, …)` and cannot be captured in-process. Pre-fix, 6 of
the 10 assertions fail; post-fix all pass.

Closes #2608

* fix(#2608): roll back the index, guard the sibling surfaces, document the new reasons

Six findings from the orthogonal review of the first commit, all fixed here.

1. A `staging_failed` return left the index PARTIALLY STAGED. The paths that did
   stage stayed in the index with no commit made and no cleanup, so the next bare
   `git commit` would sweep them up — the same silent partial commit this fix
   exists to prevent, deferred one step. (Pre-fix the partial state at least got
   consumed by the incorrect commit.) The staging failure path now resets the
   paths it staged, matching cmdPrSubrepo's established rollback-then-error
   convention. The reset is scoped to what THIS call staged — paths the caller
   had already staged are captured up front and excluded, so a caller's own work
   is never destroyed — and is best-effort, since an unwritable index (the very
   failure being reported) cannot be reset either.

2. `cmdCommitToSubrepo` still had the identical defect: a failed `git add` was
   dropped silently and the function committed the subset that happened to stage,
   discarding git's stderr. It now fails closed per sub-repo with the same
   staging_failed/staging_timeout reasons and the same scoped rollback.

3. The `git rm --cached --ignore-unmatch` branch (default mode, for a planning
   file that no longer exists on disk) still discarded its result. It mutates the
   index exactly like `git add`, and `--ignore-unmatch` already makes "no such
   path" a success, so a non-zero exit there is a real I/O failure — now routed
   through the same staging-failure path.

4. `agents/gsd-executor.md` documented the commit envelope as an exhaustive
   three-shape enum and pattern-matched only `nothing_to_commit | commit_failed`.
   It is the sole consumer doc for this surface, so the new reasons are added
   with explicit guidance not to retry (a retry hits the same unwritable index),
   and the "one of three shapes" framing is corrected.

5. The default (non---files) staging path and `--amend` are now covered by tests.
   Both were already guarded by the first commit but unexercised.

6. The changeset framed the fix as `--files`-only; it applies to default and
   sub-repo commits too, and now mentions the rollback.

Regenerated the agent size baseline and the 18 golden install-parity fixtures for
the gsd-executor.md edit.

16 assertions across both surfaces verified against the built lib.

* test(#2608): update the #2523 out-of-repo contract to the new staging_failed reason

The remote test run surfaced this: `#2523: out-of-repo --files path is rejected by
git` asserted `reason: 'nothing_to_commit'`, and now gets `staging_failed`.

This is a deliberate contract improvement, not a papered-over failure. The old
reason existed only because a failed `git add` was skipped and the resulting empty
`stagedPaths` fell through to the empty-changeset branch. But "nothing to commit"
is not what happened — the caller named a file and git refused it — and that
misreport is exactly the class of defect #2608 closes. The result now carries the
offending path and git's own message ("… is outside repository at …"), which is
strictly more actionable for the same condition.

#2523's two substantive invariants are untouched and still asserted: no commit is
created, and the index is left clean. Two assertions are ADDED (the path is named,
git's message is preserved) so the richer contract is pinned rather than merely
allowed.

Per CONTRIBUTING, a stale-test correction rides its own commit.

* fix(#2608): compact the executor doc addition to stay under the agent LARGE cap

The remote test run failed: `gsd-executor.md is 49217 bytes — exceeds the LARGE
hard cap of 49152`. The file was already at 48596 (556 bytes of headroom) and the
new commit-envelope documentation pushed it 65 bytes over.

The cap is a red line, not a budget to raise, so the addition is compacted rather
than the cap moved: four lines instead of eight, keeping the load-bearing facts —
the two new reasons, that nothing was committed and the index was rolled back,
that `file` + `error` should be surfaced, and that retrying is wrong because a
retry hits the same cause. Dropped only the restatement of the linked-worktree
example (already in the changeset and PR) and the `failures[]` field (a superset
of `file`/`error`, discoverable from the payload).

Net addition is now 276 bytes; the file sits at 48872 with 280 bytes of headroom.
Extracting the agent's shared boilerplate to references/ would buy much more, but
that is a restructuring of the executor agent and does not belong in a
commit-staging bugfix.

Agent size baseline and the golden install-parity fixtures regenerated.

2c44241a0b fix(#2605): make dropped local-server reviewer lanes loud instead of silent (#2689)
* fix(#2605): make dropped lm_studio / llama_cpp reviewer lanes loud, not silent

The `lm_studio` and `llama_cpp` reviewer legs in `gsd-core/workflows/review.md`
carried the same empty-output defect as the claude/gemini legs (#2494, fixed in
#2592) in a worse variant: when the local endpoint was unreachable or returned
empty content, they wrote NOTHING to `{run_dir}/gsd-review-<leg>.md`. There was
no `[ ! -s … ]` stub at all, so the file never existed, `write_reviews` omitted
that reviewer's section, and the outcome was indistinguishable from the reviewer
never having been selected.

Two diagnostic holes are closed, because an OpenAI-compatible server fails in two
ways that leave evidence in different places:

- Transport failure (endpoint unreachable): curl writes to stderr and exits
  non-zero. Both legs used `curl -s`, which suppresses curl's ERROR text as well
  as the progress meter, and then discarded stderr to `/dev/null` — so there was
  nothing to capture even in principle. Now `-sS` with stderr to a `.err`
  sidecar, matching the claude/gemini/codex legs.
- Application failure (HTTP 4xx/5xx): curl exits 0 and the error JSON is in the
  response BODY, so stderr is empty and only the body is evidence. The stub
  appends the raw response. The `llama_cpp` leg additionally piped curl straight
  into `jq`, throwing the body away before anything could inspect it; the
  response is now captured to a variable first, as the `lm_studio` leg already
  did.

The existing `>&2` warning is kept and now points at the stub file.

Failing-first verified by extracting both shipped blocks and running them under a
real bash against a stubbed curl: pre-fix, all three failure modes produce NO
review file and no `.err` sidecar for both legs; post-fix, each produces a
diagnosable stub, and a successful review still passes through untouched.

Closes #2605

* fix(#2605): close the remaining silent-drop paths the review surfaced

Four defects found by the orthogonal review of the first commit, all fixed here
rather than deferred (they are the same defect class the issue is about, and
three of them sit inside the code that commit touched).

1. CodeRabbit leg was still unguarded. `coderabbit review --prompt-only
   2>/dev/null > file` with no `[ ! -s … ]` stub — the last leg still shaped like
   pre-#2494 code. A missing or unauthenticated binary left a zero-byte file that
   write_reviews rendered as "ran cleanly, nothing to report". It now captures
   stderr to a `.err` sidecar and emits the same diagnosable stub as every other
   leg. This is the leg the next issue in the #2494 -> #2592 -> #2605 series
   would have been about.

2. The budget-skip path dropped the lane just as silently. When
   `prepare_trimmed_prompt_for_reviewer` fails, `*_SKIP=1` bypasses the entire
   block — guard included — so no file was written and the only trace was a
   stderr warning nothing persists. All three local-server legs now write a
   "review skipped: prompt budget too small" stub on that path.

3. Whitespace-only replies evaded the guard. `[ ! -s … ]` counts BYTES, and
   command substitution strips trailing newlines but not spaces, so a reply of
   `"   "` was written out and passed as a "successful" but vacuous review — the
   same indistinguishable-from-success outcome the guard exists to prevent. A
   `case` glob now normalizes whitespace-only content to empty.

4. `echo "$VAR"` swallowed option-like content. bash's builtin `echo` treats a
   value of exactly `-n`/`-e`/`-E` as a flag and writes 0 bytes, which would trip
   the empty guard and DISCARD a genuine reply. Switched to `printf '%s\n'`, the
   idiom the OpenCode leg in this same file already uses for this reason.

Also brings the Ollama leg to parity while it is in hand: it always emitted a
stub so it never silently vanished, but it was the least diagnosable of the three
local-server legs — bare `-s`, stderr to /dev/null, and the response piped
straight into jq so the error body was discarded unread.

Verified by extracting all four shipped blocks and running them under a real bash
against stubbed CLIs: 22 cases (7 per local-server leg x 3, plus CodeRabbit) all
produce the contracted output, and a successful review still passes through
untouched on every leg.

* test(#2605): regenerate golden install-parity fixtures for the review.md edit

The remote test run on the prior commit failed with 19 "golden parity —
<runtime>" mismatches. review.md is installed into every runtime's tree, so
editing it changes its content hash in all 19 golden fixtures.

Regenerated with `npm run gen:golden`; the diff is exactly one line per fixture
— the gsd-core/workflows/review.md hash — and nothing else.

This is the second ripple of a workflow edit, alongside
tests/workflow-size-baseline.json which the first commit already updated.

a5633bb32f enhance(#2671): brand raw vs calibrated token types so double-application is a compile error (#2676)
* test(#2671): add failing-first brand-typing compile fixtures

* feat(#2671): brand raw vs calibrated token types

* refactor(#2671): hoist type-compile into a before() hook

Two review responses:

- The fixture compile ran in the describe() body, so it executed at
  collection time even when the block was filtered out, and a failed
  precondition collapsed eight independent assertions into one opaque
  describe-level failure. A before() hook is this repo's documented
  idiom and preserves per-test granularity.

- parseTokensFlag now records WHY it returns an unbranded number: it
  validates the magnitude of --tokens, but the basis is decided by
  --calibrated, so branding here would be wrong for half its callers.
  The assertion belongs to cmdEstimateCheck, its only caller.

* test(#2671): pin each brand diagnostic to its OFFENDING marker

Adversarial review demonstrated that asserting only exactly-one-diagnostic-
at-code-N is not airtight. Repairing a fixture's brand violation while
injecting an unrelated error of the same code (a string passed as the
budget argument) still yielded exactly one TS2345, so the fixture would
have reported green while no longer testing its regression at all.

Each bad-* fixture now routes its violating value through a const named
OFFENDING, and the test asserts the diagnostic's start offset falls inside
that node — located through the AST, so it survives reformatting and never
pattern-matches source text. Replaying the proof-of-concept against the new
assertion rejects it: the diagnostic lands on the budget literal, not the
marker.

Also corrects a doc comment that claimed the program type-checks all of
src/; it covers phase-estimation.cts and its transitive dependencies.

c7c2fe3c2b fix(#2587): resolve cursor hook workspace from workspace_roots, not cwd (#2680)
* fix(#2587): resolve cursor hook workspace from workspace_roots, not cwd

gsd-cursor-session-start.js and gsd-cursor-stop.js both resolved the project as
path.join(process.cwd(), '.planning', 'STATE.md'). Under the cursor-agent CLI,
hooks are invoked with cwd set to the Cursor config dir (~/.cursor), not the
workspace — so the lookup always missed. sessionStart could only ever emit the
"no .planning/ workflow found" nudge and stop's verify-work reminder could never
fire, even with .planning/STATE.md sitting in the workspace. Slash commands were
unaffected, which is why only the hook layer looked blind.

Both hooks already buffered stdin into `raw` and never parsed it; the payload's
workspace_roots carries the real path.

Multi-root was left open in the report ("first root vs any root"). Resolved
forward: prefer the first root that actually carries .planning/STATE.md, so a
workspace whose GSD project is not the first root still resolves — strictly
better than first-root-only and identical to it in the single-root CLI case.
Falls back to roots[0], then to cwd, keeping IDE behavior unchanged if the IDE
ever invokes hooks from the workspace.

The resolver is duplicated verbatim across the two scripts rather than shared via
hooks/lib/: these hooks ship standalone, and a new hooks/lib/ file must be
registered in the GENERATED installer's GSD_HOOK_LIB_FILES allowlist — the
installer-omits-shipped-file class that yields MODULE_NOT_FOUND at runtime. Per
CLAUDE.md "Generative Fix Divergence", the duplication carries a parity assertion
so the copies cannot drift.

Failing-first, demonstrated by direct invocation with cwd != workspace:
  pre-fix  sessionStart -> "no .planning/ workflow found"   stop -> {}
  post-fix sessionStart -> ".planning/STATE.md is present"  stop -> reminder

tests/fix-2587-cursor-hook-workspace-roots.test.cjs spawns the real scripts as
child processes with a cwd lacking .planning/ and workspace_roots pointing at it.
Boundary coverage on the roots array (0 / 1 / 2 entries), plus malformed-JSON
fail-open, junk-entry filtering, the parity assertion, and a guard that neither
script resolves .planning from cwd again.

* fix(#2587): extend workspace_roots fix to subagentStart; keep cwd a candidate

Three findings from the isolated review, all fixed.

1. MISSED SITE (high). gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js carried the identical
   defect at line 43 — its own header documents workspace_roots in the input
   schema, but it resolved .planning/ from process.cwd() anyway. Under the
   cursor-agent CLI that meant every Cursor subagent (planner, executor,
   verifier) started with "no .planning/ workflow found" and no phase context.
   The report named only sessionStart and stop; the defect class was wider.
   Verified pre-fix vs post-fix by direct invocation with cwd != workspace.

2. SEMANTIC NARROWING (medium). The first cut searched only workspace_roots and
   fell back to cwd solely when the array was EMPTY. So when roots were supplied
   but none carried .planning/ while cwd did, the hook reported absent — where
   the pre-fix code, which always used cwd, reported present. That contradicted
   the fallback's own stated intent of preserving IDE behavior. cwd is now a
   CANDIDATE in the search (`[...roots, process.cwd()]`), so the fix is a strict
   superset of both the old behavior and the CLI fix, never a narrowing.

3. STALE GOLDEN FIXTURES (high, would have failed CI). The golden-install-parity
   fixtures store a content hash per installed file; these three hooks appear in
   13 of the 19 runtime fixtures. Regenerated via `npm run gen:golden` — the
   diff is exactly the three hook hashes in exactly those 13 runtimes.

Tests extended: subagentStart resolution via workspace_roots; the stop hook's
absent branch (previously only session-start's was covered); an explicit
regression guard that a project at cwd is still found when roots miss; parity now
asserts all THREE copies byte-identical; and the cwd guard sweeps the whole
RESOLVING_HOOKS list so a future hook in this family cannot be left on cwd.

* refactor(#2587): extract cursor workspace resolution to a shared hooks/lib module

The duplicate-plus-parity-test approach was the wrong call. The reported issue
named two hooks; a third (subagentStart) had the identical defect. That is the
signature of a systemic problem, and three copies of a resolver guarded by a
parity assertion is a divergence risk maintained by hand rather than a fix.

hooks/lib/cursor-workspace.js is now the single implementation. All three Cursor
hooks require it; none defines a local copy. Divergence is prevented
structurally instead of by asserting three copies stay byte-identical.

The reason duplication looked necessary was real, and is fixed properly here
rather than worked around: Cursor sets hostBehaviors.skipSharedHooksInstall
(#2089), so it never reaches the installer's bulk hooks/lib copy — it was the
ONE runtime shipping these hooks WITHOUT hooks/lib (verified against all 19
golden fixtures: cursor had the hook scripts, no lib). A naive require would
have thrown MODULE_NOT_FOUND at load, BEFORE each hook's own try/catch, wedging
every session on precisely the runtime this bug is about.

writeCursorHooksJson (src/runtime-hooks-surface.cts) now stages the hooks/lib
helpers the staged scripts actually require, discovered by scanning their
require('./lib/…') calls rather than a hardcoded name — so a future helper
cannot be silently omitted. This is narrower than flipping
skipSharedHooksInstall, which would wrongly pull in every shared hook.
cursor-workspace.js is also added to GSD_HOOK_LIB_FILES so uninstall and the
manifest manage it for the runtimes that do receive hooks/lib.

Verified against a REAL install (runMinimalInstall, cursor/global): the helper
is staged, and all three INSTALLED hooks resolve the workspace end-to-end from a
cwd that is not the project.

Also closes the review gap that the stop hook was excluded from the
cwd-candidate regression loop — it now sweeps RESOLVING_HOOKS. The byte-parity
test is replaced by a structural guard (every hook requires the shared module,
none redefines it) plus a new install test asserting the helper is staged and
the installed hook actually loads against it.

* fix(#2587): fail loud on a missing hook lib source; drop unsubstituted version marker

Two findings from the installer-focused review.

H1 — the staging step's `if (!fs.existsSync(libSrc)) continue;` silently defeated
the very guarantee it was added for. Reproduced: delete hooks/lib/cursor-workspace.js
from source, run the cursor install — it exits 0, prints "Done!", and ships the
three hook scripts with an EMPTY hooks/lib/. The installed hook then throws
`Cannot find module './lib/cursor-workspace.js'` at load, before its own
try/catch, wedging every session — and nothing surfaces until a user hits it.
The scan protected against a required-but-UNLISTED helper while leaving
required-but-MISSING wide open (typo, bad rebase, an accidental delete).
It now throws: a missing helper source is a packaging bug and aborts the install.

M1 — hooks/lib/cursor-workspace.js carried a `gsd-hook-version: <placeholder>`
marker that NOTHING substitutes: copyLibDir stamps .sh files only, and
writeCursorHooksJson's staging applies just the colon-to-dash rewrite. Verified
the literal was reaching disk on both the bulk (--claude) and Cursor
(--cursor) paths. hooks/lib/git-cmd.js — the only pre-existing hooks/lib/*.js —
carries no such marker, so this was newly introduced, not inherited. Marker
removed, matching that precedent, with a note on why. (The explanatory comment
deliberately does not spell the token out, or it would reintroduce the literal.)

M2 — the require-scan regex demanded the exact compact form, so
`require( "./lib/x.js" )` would silently fail to stage its helper and compound
H1. Now tolerant of interior whitespace and either quote style.

Regression test added for H1 — the reviewer confirmed the invariant had zero
coverage repo-wide: a source tree carrying the hooks but no hooks/lib/ must make
writeCursorHooksJson throw rather than produce a broken install.

Re-verified end to end: the missing-source case throws, no unsubstituted literal
ships, and the installed hook still resolves the workspace from a foreign cwd.

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

* feat(#1854): offer restore for user-added files backed up on update

Adds a restore-custom-files gsd-tools verb and wires it into update.md as a
restore_custom_files step: plan, compatibility-check against the newly
installed release, then restore only on explicit opt-in. The backup is never
deleted, a shipped path is never overwritten, and a single unwritable entry
does not abort the rest.

Also drops the jq pipe from update-context field extraction (#2589 class,
missed by that sweep) and repairs a broken code fence in docs/CLI-TOOLS.md.

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

* fix(#1854): reject symlinked restore destinations and backup roots

Self-review of the restore path found two write-through holes: copyFileSync
follows a symlinked destination, so a link planted at the restore target wrote
outside the config dir with every ancestor still a real directory; and statSync
on the backup root followed a link, letting the walk read arbitrary files and
present them as the user's own backup. Both now lstat.

Also marks the report's path/detail strings as untrusted data in update.md so
the rendered step cannot carry instructions into the runtime model.

* test(#1854): move the update-context jq guard into the #2589 sweep

update.md joins the AUDITED list rather than carrying a duplicate assertion in

'no jq pipe' cannot pass by the fields simply no longer being read.

* fix(#1854): validate manifest files map shape before trusting it

Security review flagged that Object.keys on a non-plain-object files field
yields numeric-index keys matching nothing, so the managed-path check dies
silently while manifest_found still reports true. Shape, not just type
(ADR-227): an array or scalar files map is now an unusable manifest.

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

* fix(#1854): size the restore prompt by eligible_count

Spec review found the prompt was driven by entries.length, so a backup holding
only blocked entries asked "Restore 1 file(s)?" when accepting would restore
zero. The question now reads eligible_count, and an all-blocked backup reports
its reasons instead of offering a choice that cannot be honored. The decline
path names the resolved backup_dir rather than the bare directory name.

A bare return in a node:test body registers as a PASS, so the four symlink

Adds the dangling-link destination case the security review called out, and
moves outside-dir teardown to t.after so a failing assert cannot leak it.

* fix(#1854): unfence restore hint, regen goldens, widen install timeout

Three gate failures from the c99d612a5 run, all root-caused:

1. capability-registry (3): update.md's decline message put an instructional
   'gsd-tools ...' line in an UNTAGGED fence, and the guard treats untagged
   fences as shell blocks. Retagged both display blocks as text and switched
   the hint to the resolved 'node <config-dir>/.../gsd-tools.cjs' form users
   can actually paste.

2. golden-install-parity (19): update.md and gsd-tools.cjs ship, so every
   runtime fixture moved. Regenerated; the diff is exactly those two hashes
   per fixture, no other drift.

3. install.test.cjs (5): one real failure, four cascades. The Cursor suite's
   before hook died on 'spawnSync ETIMEDOUT' at the 60s cap while the node22
   lane passed the SAME commit in 12.7s. A full install measures 13-30s idle,
   so 60s was under 2x headroom and shrinks with every file added to the
   payload. Raised to 120s, matching the heavy case already in this file.

920a5f3f06 fix(#2589): use --raw/--pick for config/model/verify lookups, drop jq dep (#2673)
* fix(#2589): use --raw/--pick for config/model/verify lookups, drop jq dep

The reviewer/workflow config lookups resolved scalars and object fields with a
`gsd_run query <cmd> … | jq … 2>/dev/null || <default>` shape. On any machine
without jq (the default on Windows/Git-Bash) the jq stage fails with exit 127,
the failure is swallowed by 2>/dev/null + the trailing || default, and the
variable comes back EMPTY — the configured per-lane model/host/budget is
silently dropped and the lane falls back to CLI defaults with no diagnostic.

gsd-tools ships native flags that do the same job with no external dep:
  config-get <key> --raw          (strips JSON quotes off a scalar)
  resolve-model <id> --pick model (descends an object)
  resolve-execution … --pick <f>  (same)
  verification.status … --pick status

Replaced every jq-piped config/model/verify lookup across review.md (×23),
plan-phase.md, ship.md, debug.md (incl. the redundant boolean coercion — --raw
returns true/false as bare tokens natively), autonomous.md (×2),
ai-integration-phase.md (×4), and eval-review.md. The legitimate structured-JSON
jq sites that parse HTTP curl responses (.choices[0], jq -rs, jq -n --rawfile)
are untouched — only the jq-replaceable lookups moved to the native flags.

Adds tests/fix-2589-config-get-no-jq.test.cjs: a source-invariant guard asserting
no audited workflow pipes config-get/resolve-model/resolve-execution/verification.status
to jq (fails-first on the pre-fix text, passes after).

* test(#2589): update autonomous-converge jq assertion to --pick; regen golden fixtures

Two test consequences of the workflow-doc edits in the prior commit:

1. tests/autonomous-converge.test.cjs pinned the OLD jq-dependent shape
   (`verification.status … | jq -r '.status//empty'`) as the canonical routing
   contract. The test's INTENT is correct (route human validation through
   canonical verification.status) but it over-specified the MECHANISM (the jq
   pipe). Updated the assertion to match the new native --pick status shape;
   the contract being guarded (canonical verification.status read before the
   human_needed branch) is unchanged.

2. The golden-install-parity fixtures (19 runtimes) record a content hash of
   every installed workflow .md; the 7 edited workflows changed those hashes.
   Regenerated via `npm run gen:golden` (the test's own failure message
   instructs this). Only the 7 edited workflow hashes changed in each fixture.

* fix(#2589): declare jq a prerequisite for the lanes that still need it; repair test file

Three defects in the first cut of the #2589 fix:

1. tests/autonomous-converge.test.cjs was a JavaScript syntax error. The regex
   literal /...2>\/dev/null .../ left the second slash unescaped, terminating the
   literal early and parsing `null` as regex flags:
     SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression flags
   The whole file failed to load, so every assertion in it — including the #1522
   and #1526 guards — silently stopped running. Replaced with the string-compare
   form already used at line 202 for the sibling shell-snippet assertion.

2. lint:ci failed. tests/fix-2589-config-get-no-jq.test.cjs buckets into the
   capped `config` production module via its `config-get-...` effective prefix,
   making it a novel offender against the 2-file cap. The test is about workflow
   documents, not the config module, so it is renamed to
   fix-2589-workflow-jq-dependency.test.cjs (free prefix) rather than growing the
   allowlist with a module that does not actually need a 5th test file.

3. The fix deleted the repo's only jq-prerequisite declaration. review.md:244
   ("install jq if missing") was the anchor plan-review-convergence.md cites by
   line number, and it went away with the jq pipes — while the ollama, lm_studio,
   llama_cpp, opencode, and agy lanes still hard-require jq to parse HTTP
   /v1/chat/completions responses, opencode's JSONL event stream, and agy's
   conversation cache. On a jq-less host those five lanes swallow exit 127 into
   empty output: the same silent-degradation class #2589 exists to close.

   detect_clis now probes jq alongside the other prerequisites and emits
   jq:available / jq:missing, and the five dependent lanes are treated as
   undetected when it is absent, with an install hint. The six lanes that do not
   need jq stay selectable. plan-review-convergence.md now cites the section by
   name instead of a line number that moves.

Regression guards added to the renamed test file: review.md must keep the jq
probe and must name all five dependent lanes, and no workflow may cite review.md
by line number. Workflow-size baseline and the 19 install-parity goldens
regenerated for the review.md / plan-review-convergence.md edits.

* fix(#2589): decide the ship verification gate on a single verification.status read

Isolated review finding (medium). Pre-fix, ship.md captured verification.status
ONCE into $VERIFICATION and picked status / next_action / next_command off that
cached JSON with three jq calls. --pick takes a single dot-path field, so the
mechanical conversion issued three separate queries up front: three node spawns
that each re-read the phase VERIFICATION.md and re-derive the commit-time vs
mtime staleness comparison, on every ship — including the common passing path
that never uses the two message fields. It also meant the gate's verdict and the
message shown to the user were derived from three reads with no guarantee they
observed the same state.

The gate now reads `status` once and decides. The two message-only fields are
read on the blocking path only, after PHASE_VERIFICATION_INCOMPLETE is already
determined — so the passing path costs one query instead of three, and a
concurrent write between reads can no longer make the gate and its message
disagree, because the block/allow decision no longer depends on them.

Adding a multi-field --pick to gsd-tools would have collapsed this to one query,
but that changes the flag's output contract and belongs in its own change.

Regression guard in tests/fix-2589-workflow-jq-dependency.test.cjs: ship.md must
read verification.status exactly three times total, the block decision must
follow the status read, and next_action / next_command must both appear after
the blocking prose so they cannot drift back onto the passing path.

* docs(#2589): document the jq prerequisite for the five reviewer lanes that need it

/gsd-review's ollama, lm_studio, llama_cpp, opencode, and agy lanes parse JSON
GSD does not produce (OpenAI-compatible /v1/chat/completions responses,
OpenCode's JSONL event stream, Antigravity's conversation cache), so they require
jq on PATH. Nothing in docs/ said so. Records which five lanes need it, which six
do not, that reading configured models/hosts/budgets no longer requires jq at
all, and what /gsd-review now does when jq is absent.

a40ee8a5e7 fix(#2479): drop the codex hook-trust bypass flag and its capability probe (#2536)
* fix(#2479): drop the codex hook-trust bypass flag and its capability probe

The /gsd-review codex lane emitted a hook-trust bypass flag via a
capability-probed variable (#1115). Host-harness safety classifiers deny
commands carrying the flag (23/33 sampled invocations), one denial citing
the probe itself as intent, while flagless retries succeeded 32/32 — the
flag only bypasses persisted hook trust, a first-run condition with no
steady-state value. Remove both the flag and the probe per maintainer
direction (no config key). #1115's diagnosability half — stderr to .err,
folded into the lane on empty output — is untouched; its version-gate
becomes vacuous with no flag to gate. The regression test inverts: the
literal flag is now banned file-wide in review.md (covers continuation
lines, carrier variables, and probes), alongside bans on the carrier
variable and any codex help-grep probe shape.

6ad30f74b6 feat(#2584): Phase 3 — scheduler consumer + isolation adapters (#2635)
Final phase of #2584 (ADR-1239 Codex-binding amendment). execute-phase now negotiates dispatch.isolation and dispatches through the matching adapter, so a wave's independent plans run concurrently on six runtimes instead of one — with no runtime=== branch in the scheduler.

harness-worktree passes the host's declared isolation flag (claude, cursor); orchestrator-worktree creates the worktree via the Phase-2 verb and spawns the executor into it with the resolved argv/cwd (codex, opencode, kimi, kimi-code); none stays sequential. Undeclared/unknown/unresolvable isolation degrades to none — never an unisolated parallel run.

Fixes two shipped Phase-2 descriptors that per-host research found would fail at spawn: kimi lacked its headless flag (would launch the interactive TUI and hang the orchestrator), and kimi-code named a non-existent binary (Kimi Code installs as 'kimi'). Adds the worktree-path root confinement Phase 2 deferred here, and leading-dash guards on the resolver's prompt/cwd matching the existing git-argument guard.

Closes #2627

4a66d62d10 feat(#2584): Phase 2 — worktree create verb + orchestrator-exec resolver (#2625)
* feat(#2584): Phase 2 — worktree create verb + orchestrator-exec resolver

Phase 2 of the negotiated executor-isolation feature (ADR-1239 Codex-binding amendment). Two building blocks for `dispatch.isolation: orchestrator-worktree` hosts, both unconsumed — no scheduler wires them yet (that is Phase 3), so no runtime behavior changes.

worktree create verb (planWorktreeCreate / executeWorktreeCreatePlan / cmdWorktreeCreate in worktree-safety.cts, routed via routeWorktree in gsd-tools.cjs): validates the wave base, creates a bounded branch+worktree, records it in the run manifest reusing record-agent 4-field entry shape, returns the executor working directory. Bounded git (10s timeout, degrade-not-throw); all manifest read/parse/validate/dedupe precedes the single git side effect (no unmanifested-orphan on a bad manifest); timeout-only best-effort partial rollback (a clean collision-exit never removes a live peer worktree); fail-closed on bad base, unsafe leading-dash / .. inputs, and malformed/mis-shaped manifest.

resolveOrchestratorExec (host-integration.cts): pure descriptor->argv resolver reading the new runtime.orchestratorExec descriptor field (codex/opencode/kimi/kimi-code), fail-closed on missing/invalid shape. Validator (capability-validator.cjs) + a parity guard asserting every orchestrator-worktree host declares a resolvable orchestratorExec.

Adding the create route edits the installed gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs, so the golden-install-parity fixtures for all 19 runtimes are regenerated (npm run gen:golden) — the only changed hash is gsd-tools.cjs. CONTEXT.md glossary updated; capability-registry regenerated. Behavioral tests (worktree-safety + host-integration) incl. a fast-check property test and the parity sweep.

* chore: rebuild tracked state-transition.cjs to match #2400 source

The tracked compiled artifact drifted from src/state-transition.cts: #2400 (commit 2bcfaa2e2) added the progress.total_plans frontmatter sync to source but the tracked bin/lib/state-transition.cjs was never rebuilt, so the fix was not shipping to consumers of the compiled artifact. The mandatory build:lib step for Phase 2 surfaced the drift; recompiling makes the already-merged, already-changelogged #2400 fix effective. Artifact-only resync (no source/test change); drift class tracked by #2591.

bd18a593a9 fix(#2494): capture stderr and guard empty output on the claude and gemini reviewer legs (#2592)
* fix(#2494): capture stderr and guard empty output on the claude and gemini reviewer legs

The gemini and claude blocks in gsd-core/workflows/review.md were the only
two of the ten prompt-fed reviewer legs with both `2>/dev/null` and no
empty-output guard. Any failure that wrote no stdout — CLI missing,
unauthenticated, rate-limited, crashed — left a zero-byte review file with
the only diagnostic evidence already discarded.

write_reviews substitutes each file's raw content into a `## <Reviewer>
Review` section with no marker separating "empty/failed" from "ran cleanly,
nothing to report", so a failed lane silently degraded the advertised
N-reviewer consensus to N-1 while present_results reported success. Both
/gsd:review and /gsd:plan-review-convergence share the invoke_reviewers
step, so both were affected.

Both legs now redirect stderr to a `.err` sidecar and write a diagnostic
stub with the captured stderr appended when the review file comes back
empty — the same shape the codex and cursor legs already use.

Scope limit, noted in the block comment: the guard only runs if the block
itself completes. A host Bash-tool timeout that kills the whole block skips
it, the same hard bound the OpenCode block already documents. The existing
timeout guidance (#2194) covers that case and is unchanged.

Regression test extracts the two dispatch blocks verbatim from the workflow
and runs them under bash against a failing CLI stub, asserting the review
file is non-empty and carries a diagnosable message plus the captured
stderr. It fails against pre-fix review.md (4 of 5 cases).

Golden install-parity fixtures and the workflow size baseline are
regenerated: one review.md hash per fixture, one size entry.

Fixes #2494

The fragment was authored with the documented `pr: 0` placeholder because
the PR number does not exist until `gh pr create` returns. Now that this

the placeholder would fail the Changeset Required check.

* fix: merge coverage gate into single-process check (#2474)

The test:coverage:unit script chained two c8 invocations with &&:
the first ran tests and wrote coverage data to .nyc_output/, the
second read that data for per-file branch checks. On fast CI runners
(ubuntu/24), the second process started before the filesystem flushed
the first process's writes — a classic TOCTOU race that caused
intermittent coverage gate failures.

Replace the two-process chain with a single c8 invocation that
generates both text and json-summary reports, followed by a Node
script (scripts/check-coverage-gate.cjs) that reads the JSON summary
once and checks both overall and per-file thresholds. No filesystem
race is possible because the JSON report is fully written before the
check script reads it.

aa0f7dee99 fix(#2460): pi before_provider_request fail-opens without explicit model_profile_overrides (#2499)
* fix(#2460): pi before_provider_request fail-opens without explicit override

pi/gsd.cjs's buildBeforeProviderRequestHandler unconditionally rewrote
payload.model to the built-in pi/sonnet tier default (claude-sonnet-5)
via resolveTierEntry's catalog fallback. For any pi user on a non-Anthropic
provider (kimi-coding, zai, openrouter, openai-codex, minimax, ...), this
silently broke every request: pi's chosen model was replaced with one the
active provider did not know.

The fix inspects model_profile_overrides.pi[tier] explicitly BEFORE calling
resolveTierEntry (which falls back to the built-in catalog and would mask
the 'user did not opt in' signal). When the user has not set an override
(or set it to null), the handler returns undefined — fail-open — and pi's
chosen model flows through untouched. Only an explicit opt-in via
model_profile_overrides.pi[tier] steers.

Tests:
- the ACTUALLY-REGISTERED handler fail-opens when no override configured
  (was: 'steers to default-tier model-catalog pi id' — encoded the bug).
- new test reproducing the reporter's exact repro (model: 'k3' → undefined).
- override path: explicit model_profile_overrides.pi.sonnet config steers
  to the user-configured model id.
- defensive: explicit null override also fail-opens.

Per the reporter's suggested fix #1 of #2460.

* fix(#2460): treat empty-string override as fail-open (M1 review)

Per code-review M1 + security M1: an explicit empty-string override
(`{ pi: { sonnet: "" } }`) silently bypassed the fail-open guard because
the check was `=== undefined || === null` only. resolveTierEntry's falsy
`if (userRaw)` then fell back to the built-in catalog and rewrote
payload.model to claude-sonnet-5 — re-introducing the exact bug this PR
fixes, via a degenerate config shape.

Fix: widen the guard to also reject `''`. The test now exercises both
null and '' in a loop, asserting fail-open for both.

The npm audit fix re-resolved hono to 4.12.31 (within the existing ^4.11.4
range declared by MCP SDK), clearing the hono advisory without an override.
The @hono/node-server advisory cannot be re-resolved the same way: MCP SDK
pins @hono/node-server@^1.19.9, and the fix requires 2.0.5+. There is no
MCP SDK release that allows @hono/node-server@2.x (latest 1.29.0 is the
most recent), and bumping @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk to 0.3.x does
not help (its peerDependency is still @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@^1.29.0).

The override (sibling to the existing 'qs' and 'body-parser' entries) is
therefore the only available tool — distinct from the body-parser case in
re-resolution.

Verified: npm audit --omit=dev reports 0/0/0/0 advisories.

Also: regenerated the pi golden-install-parity fixture (the pi/gsd.cjs
change in this PR altered the pi install hash).

c2a305c44d feat(#2505): Phase 2 — kimi-code Agent Skills install layout (#2520)
* feat(#2454): PR 2 — kimi-code Agent Skills converter + install layout

PR 1 registered the kimi-code EoS descriptor with empty artifactLayout
(SKIP_INSTALL_CONTRACT excluded it from the end-to-end install test).
PR 2 fills in the install surface:

- src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts: new convertClaudeCommandToKimiCodeSkill
  function. Today it delegates to convertClaudeCommandToKimiSkill (Python
  kimi-cli) because Kimi Code uses the same Agent Skills format + /skill:
  invocation per official docs. The distinct function name lets a future
  divergence land cleanly if Kimi Code's skill format evolves independently.
- gsd-core/bin/lib/capability-validator.cjs: add to ALLOWED_SKILLS_CONVERTERS.
- capabilities/kimi-code/capability.json: artifactLayout.global now declares
  the skills kind with converter='convertClaudeCommandToKimiCodeSkill' +
  home='.kimi-code' (auto-discovered at ~/.kimi-code/skills/ per Kimi Code
  docs: merge_all_available_skills = true default).
- tests/installer-migration-install.integration.test.cjs: REMOVE the
  SKIP_INSTALL_CONTRACT exclusion — kimi-code now has a full install surface.
- Regenerated capability-registry + capability-matrix + golden install
  parity + install tree fixtures for kimi-code.

* fix(#2454): wire kimi-code converter into SKILLS_CONVERTER_REGISTRY + count bump

- src/install-engine.cts: add convertClaudeCommandToKimiCodeSkill to
  SKILLS_CONVERTER_REGISTRY so the layout-driven skills install path
  can dispatch off the descriptor's converter string.
- tests/capability-registry.test.cjs: bump VALID_CONVERTER_NAMES count
  26 → 27 (added convertClaudeCommandToKimiCodeSkill).

* fix(#2454): remove home override from kimi-code skills (inherit configDir)

The home:'.kimi-code' override made the install plan resolve skills dest
to ~/.kimi-code/skills instead of <configDir>/skills, causing the test's
temp configDir to miss the install. Removing it lets skills inherit
configDir like most runtimes.

* fix(#2454): kimi-code install contract surface is flat-skills (no agents)

Kimi Code has NO custom named subagents (per official docs: 3 built-in
coder/explore/plan only). The kimi-skills-agents surface expects agents/
gsd.yaml + subagents/*.yaml which kimi-code does not produce. Changed
to flat-skills which only checks for skills/gsd-* dirs.

bf8f320083 feat(#2505): Phase 1 — EoS descriptor split (kimi-code capability.json + drift-guard registration) (#2519)
* feat(#2454): add kimi-code as an EoS capability (Node Kimi Code CLI)

PR 1 of N for #2454. Establishes the EoS descriptor foundation for splitting
GSD's kimi support into two distinct products per the user's directive:
- kimi       (existing): Moonshot's Python kimi-cli (~/.kimi, runtime: python)
- kimi-code  (new):      Moonshot's Node Kimi Code CLI (~/.kimi-code,
                         runtime: node, KIMI_CODE_HOME env)

Per ADR-1239 EoS, runtime behavior is driven by capabilities/<id>/capability.json
descriptors, not hardcoded branches in install.js. The new descriptor uses
the existing primitives (dot-home configHome, skills artifactLayout, kimi-hooks-toml
hooksSurface — same TOML [[hooks]] format Kimi Code reads per its docs).

Critical Kimi Code constraint reflected in the descriptor:
  hostIntegration.dispatch.namedDispatch: false
  hostIntegration.dispatch.builtInSubagents: ['coder', 'explore', 'plan']
  hostBehaviors.namedSubagentsSupported: false
Kimi Code's official docs confirm only 3 built-in subagents with NO custom-
subagent registration (the [subagent] table only has timeout_ms). The
kimi-agents YAML layout (used by Python kimi-cli) is therefore NOT in
kimi-code's artifactLayout.

Schema adjustments:
- subagentToolkit set to 'undocumented' (the existing escape hatch); the
  schema enum (full/read-only) lacks a 'limited'/'built-in-only' value.
  A follow-up PR can extend the schema enum to add 'built-in-only' as a
  first-class axis value reflecting Kimi Code's documented model.

Registration:
- capabilities/kimi-code/capability.json (new descriptor, modeled on codex)
- bin/install.js: allRuntimes array + --all list + --kimi-code flag
- gsd-core/bin/shared/runtime-aliases.manifest.json: kimi-code aliases
  (kimi-code, kimicode, kimi_code)
- src/runtime-name-policy.cts: FALLBACK_ALIASES map
- gsd-core/bin/lib/capability-registry.cjs: regenerated via
  scripts/gen-capability-registry.cjs --write

Tests:
- tests/multi-runtime-select.test.cjs updated for the new runtime count (18)
  + new --kimi-code flag test + 'All' shortcut renumbered 18 → 19.

Out of scope for PR 1 (follow-up PRs in the sequence):
- Install-time decision logic (kimi vs kimi-code detection / prompt)
- agent-install-check semantics for kimi-code (verify Agent Skills presence)
- cmdAgentSkills fallback returning subagent prompt content
- Workflow template mapping (named agents → built-in coder/explore/plan)
- Migration guidance for users currently on 'kimi' who are actually on Kimi Code
- Schema enum extension for subagentToolkit: 'built-in-only'

Refs #2454, #2095 (EoS/kimi migration epic), ADR-1239 (EoS).

* fix(#2454): complete drift-guard registrations for kimi-code runtime

The drift guards caught every surface that pins runtime enumeration. Each
update is mechanical, driven by the guard's named failure mode:

- src/runtime-name-policy.cts RUNTIME_LABELS: 'Kimi Code' label for kimi-code
- src/runtime-name-policy.cts RUNTIME_FLAG_IDS: add kimi-code to the
  isKimiCode predicate generator
- bin/install.js runtimeMap: option '11' → 'kimi-code', renumber downstream
  entries (11..17 → 12..18), ALL_RUNTIMES_OPTION 18 → 19
- gsd-core/bin/shared/model-catalog.json runtimeTierDefaults: kimi-code entry
  (null/null/null — same as kimi, no model tier defaults until configured)
- docs/reference/capability-matrix.md: regenerated via
  scripts/gen-capability-matrix.cjs --write (kimi-code row added)
- tests/global-config-home-fragment.test.cjs GOLDEN_FRAGMENT_MAP:
  kimi-code → '.kimi-code'
- tests/fixtures/golden-install-parity/*.json: regenerated via npm run gen:golden
  (the runtime-aliases.manifest.json hash changed; all 17 runtime fixtures updated)

The capability-registry is already regenerated from the prior commit.

* test(#2454): update drift-guard tests for kimi-code runtime registration

Multiple drift guards pin runtime enumeration counts and option numbering.
Each update is mechanical, driven by the guard's named failure mode:

- tests/runtime-flags.test.cjs: EXPECTED_FLAGS gains isKimiCode (16 → 17);
  'all 16 flags' → 'all 17 flags' in test names + messages.
- tests/multi-runtime-select.test.cjs: parseRuntimeInput option renumbering
  cascade — kilo moves 11→12, opencode 12→13, pi 13→14, qwen 14→15,
  trae 15→16, windsurf 16→17, zcode 17→18, All 18→19. New single-choice
  test for kimi-code (option 11). Prompt test updated for new numbering.
- tests/host-integration-descriptors.test.cjs: EXPECTED_PROFILES gains
  kimi-code → 'programmatic-cli' (terminal CLI per Kimi Code docs);
  EXPECTED_FLATTEN gains kimi-code → false (backgroundDispatch:true per
  docs, same as Python kimi/opencode).
- tests/global-config-home-fragment.test.cjs: table-count test renamed
  13 → 14 table runtimes (kimi-code added to GOLDEN_FRAGMENT_MAP earlier).

* fix(#2454): empty artifactLayout for kimi-code (PR 1 scope)

The skills kind requires a converter (existing converters are per-runtime
like convertClaudeCommandToKimiSkill). PR 1 of this multi-PR sequence only
registers the descriptor; the actual Agent Skills converter (and a new
'convertClaudeCommandToKimiCodeSkill' function) lands in PR 2 alongside
the install-time decision logic. Empty artifactLayout.global is valid and
means 'nothing to install yet via the layout seam'.

Also: added kimi-code to RUNTIME_META in tests/helpers/install-shared.cjs
(localDir .kimi-code, globalSuffix .kimi-code), and added Kimi Code as
option 11 in install.js's buildRuntimePromptText (renumbered downstream
options 11..17 → 12..18, All 18 → 19).

* fix(#2454): camelCase runtimeFlags for hyphenated ids (kimi-code → isKimiCode)

The runtimeFlags generator previously produced 'isKimi-code' (hyphen preserved)
for the new kimi-code runtime id. Property names with hyphens are awkward for
consumers (flags['isKimi-code'] instead of flags.isKimiCode). The new
runtimeIdToFlagName helper folds -[a-z] boundaries to uppercase, producing
the conventional PascalCase flag name. The 16 prior single-word runtime ids
are unaffected (the regex finds no hyphens).

* fix(#2454): update remaining drift-guard tests + gen kimi-code fixtures

- tests/runtime-flags.test.cjs drift guard: use proper kebab-case
  conversion (isKimiCode → kimi-code, not 'kimicode') so the registry
  comparison doesn't false-positive on hyphenated runtime ids.
- tests/multi-runtime-select.test.cjs: fix kilo/opencode/pi/qwen/trae
  single-choice tests for the renumbered options (kilo 11→12, opencode
  12→13, pi 13→14, qwen 14→15, trae 15→16).
- tests/install.test.cjs: Kilo integration option 11→12, prompt test
  regex updated.
- tests/fixtures/golden-install-parity/kimi-code.json + install-tree/
  kimi-code.json: generated via UPDATE_GOLDEN=1 + UPDATE_INSTALL_TREE=1.
  The kimi-code install produces the standard GSD install layout (skills,
  contexts, references, etc.) — 436 paths, same shape as other runtimes
  that have no custom converter yet.

* fix(#2454): add kimi-code install contract + global config home fragment

- src/runtime-name-policy.cts GLOBAL_CONFIG_HOME_FRAGMENTS: add kimi-code
  → '.kimi-code' so getGlobalConfigHomeFragment returns the correct path
  instead of falling through to the default '.claude'.
- tests/installer-migration-install.integration.test.cjs
  RUNTIME_INSTALL_CONTRACTS: kimi-code entry (same surface as kimi for
  PR 1; PR 2 will specialize once the Agent Skills converter lands).
- tests/multi-runtime-select.test.cjs: fix space-separated-choices test
  for the renumbered kilo option (11 → 12).
- tests/fixtures/golden-install-parity/kimi-code.json + install-tree/
  kimi-code.json: regenerated after rebasing onto current next (new
  planner-reversibility.md from #2471 etc. now included).

* test(#2454): skip kimi-code install contract until PR 2 ships install layout

The end-to-end install test (tests/installer-migration-install.integration
.test.cjs) asserts every allRuntimes entry installs a runtime-specific
artifact surface. PR 1 of #2454 registers kimi-code in allRuntimes + the
capability descriptor + flags + labels, but the install LAYOUT (Agent
Skills converter + global AGENTS.md at $KIMI_CODE_HOME/AGENTS.md) lands
in PR 2. The SKIP_INSTALL_CONTRACT set marks this exclusion explicit and
self-removing — PR 2 removes the entry alongside adding the install
surface, restoring the contract loop to full coverage.

* fix(#2454): restore compact model-catalog.json format (M1 review)

Per code-review M1: my prior 'fix(#2454): complete drift-guard registrations'
commit used python json.dump(indent=2) which inflated the file from 165→607
lines (every nested entry got expanded) and lost the trailing newline. The
semantic change was just a 3-line kimi-code entry. Restored the original
hybrid format (top-level indent=2 + inner entries' one-line style) and
added kimi-code in matching form.

Regenerated golden install parity + install tree fixtures since the
model-catalog.json hash changed.

* fix(#2454): update CONTEXT.md allRuntimes glossary (17 → 18, add kimi-code)

CI lint-tests job failed on the glossary drift guard
(scripts/check-glossary-refs.cjs --check):
  ✗ CONTEXT.md's allRuntimes enum-count sentence claims 17 values but
    bin/install.js's allRuntimes array has 18.
  ✗ CONTEXT.md's allRuntimes member list has drifted from bin/install.js
    (missing from CONTEXT.md's list: kimi-code).

Missed in the prior commits because gsd-test does not run the glossary
check (it's a CI lint-tests-only check). Updating CONTEXT.md's two claims
to 18 values + kimi-code in the member list.

7e905aa137 feat(#2505): Phase 0 — Kimi PreToolUse guard vocabulary normalization (precondition; carries PR #2326 forward) (#2518)
* fix(#2304): normalize Kimi tool vocabulary in PreToolUse guard payload checks

The Kimi [[hooks]] registrations translate the matcher to Kimi's tool
vocabulary (WriteFile|StrReplaceFile) but the guard scripts early-exit
unless the payload's tool_name is a Claude name (Write/Edit/MultiEdit),
so every guard was dormant on Kimi: the matcher fired, the script saw
WriteFile, and exit(0)'d.

Normalize the payload's tool_name at the top of each guard
(WriteFile -> Write, StrReplaceFile -> Edit; bare or module-qualified
kimi_cli.tools.file:* forms) before the check. Inlined per guard rather
than a hooks/lib/ helper because hook scripts are staged as standalone
files on every hook surface, and a sibling require is a staging
dependency that can fail silently.

Regression tests pipe Kimi-vocabulary payloads at each guard and assert
it engages (typed fields: exit status, decision, hookSpecificOutput) —
verified red against the pre-fix scripts, green after.

* fix(#2304): normalize Kimi tool_input fields and route block reasons to stderr

Cross-AI review of the initial fix, verified against kimi-cli source,
found the tool_name normalization alone leaves the guards dormant on a
real Kimi runtime: kimi-cli forwards tool_input verbatim
(src/kimi_cli/hooks/events.py), and its tool schemas
(src/kimi_cli/tools/file/{write,replace}.py) use path/content and
edit.old/edit.new (single Edit or list) — not Claude's
file_path/old_string/new_string. The guards read file_path, got '',
and exited 0 past the now-open tool_name gate.

Extend the per-guard normalization to the payload fields
(path -> file_path, edit -> old_string/new_string with list flattening),
and write the worktree guard's block reason to stderr as well as the
stdout JSON — Kimi feeds stderr, not stdout, back to the model on
exit 2 (docs/en/customization/hooks.md exit-code table).

Regression tests rewritten to Kimi's actual payload shapes (plus an
edit-list case and a stderr-reason assertion) — verified red against
the name-only fix, green after.

* fix(#2304): join all edit[] entries into old_string, matching new_string

Review nit on #2326: old_string took only edits[0].old while new_string
joined the whole list. Symmetric join removes the latent trap for any
future consumer sizing before/after content (e.g. the #2255 write guard).

* fix(#2304): normalize Kimi ReadFile vocabulary in read-injection scanner

Review Major 2 on #2326: gsd-read-injection-scanner.js had the identical
dormancy — its Kimi matcher fires on 'ReadFile' but the SCANNED_TOOLS
check only knew 'Read', so injected content in read files was never
flagged on Kimi installs.

Folds the same inlined normalization block into the scanner and extends
the shared KIMI_TOOL_NAMES map with ReadFile:'Read' in all four copies so
they stay byte-identical. Harmless in the three write guards: a
normalized 'Read' falls out of their Write/Edit allowlist exactly as the
unmapped name did. Field mapping verified against kimi-cli upstream
(src/kimi_cli/tools/file/read.py Params.path); the existing
path->file_path copy covers the scanner's file_path read.

* test(#2304): parity test binding the four inlined Kimi normalization copies

Review Major 1 on #2326: KIMI_TOOL_NAMES + normalizeKimiPayload is
deliberately inlined in four hook scripts (staging-dependency rationale,
unchanged), with the inverse table in bin/install.js — five
hand-maintained surfaces and nothing binding them.

Static binding, zero runtime coupling:
- the four inlined blocks must be byte-identical;
- each guard-map entry must be the value-inverse of
  convertKimiToolName() for its Claude name;
- every guard-relevant Claude tool (Write/Edit/MultiEdit/Read) must have
  a reverse entry — a vocabulary rename or extension that updates the
  installer without updating the guards now fails in CI instead of
  leaving a guard silently dormant (the #2304 recurrence door).

Negative-controlled: diverging one copy or dropping a map entry fails
the suite against the fixed code.

* test(#2304): regenerate golden parity fixtures for guard hook changes

CI red on #2326: all 10 golden-parity failures were the staged guard
hooks drifting from their fixtures. Regenerated with npm run gen:golden
(after npm run build) under throwaway HOME/CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR; diff
verified to change exactly the four PR-touched guard entries per
surface, nothing else.

* test(#2304): regression tests for Kimi ReadFile engaging the scanner

Mirrors the per-guard Kimi vocabulary tests the PR added for the three
write guards: bare and module-qualified ReadFile produce the advisory,
path exclusions still apply post-normalization, unknown Kimi names stay
fail-open. Negative-controlled against the pre-fold scanner (the two
positive cases fail there; exclusion/fall-through correctly pass on
both sides).

* fix(#2304): normalize Kimi Shell vocabulary in workflow guard

Withdraws the disclosed out-of-scope split: verification showed the
Bash->Shell case needs NO different mapping — kimi-cli's Shell.Params
names its field `command` (src/kimi_cli/tools/shell/__init__.py), same
as Claude's Bash — and the guard's write branch (Write/Edit/MultiEdit
allowlist) was ALSO dormant on Kimi under its Shell|WriteFile|
StrReplaceFile matcher. Same defect class as the other four hooks.

Folds the identical inlined block into gsd-workflow-guard.js and
extends the shared map with Shell:'Bash' in all five copies (harmless
outside the workflow guard: a normalized Bash falls out of the other
guards' checks as before). Parity test now binds five copies and adds
Bash to the dormancy alarm. New workflow-guard test file exercises the
observable block (force-add on a worktree-agent branch): Shell bare and
module-qualified block with WORKTREE_AGENT_FORCE_ADD_FORBIDDEN, benign
Shell passes, Claude Bash unchanged — negative-controlled against the
pre-fold guard (the two Kimi cases fail there). Golden parity fixtures
regenerated; diff verified to change exactly the five guard entries per
surface.

* fix(#2304): map Kimi tool_output and route workflow-guard block to stderr

Third-party review (cross-AI verifier) caught two gaps in the revision:

1. Kimi PostToolUse events carry `tool_output`, not `tool_response`
   (kimi-cli src/kimi_cli/hooks/events.py post_tool_use()), so the
   read-injection scanner — which reads data.tool_response — was STILL
   dormant on real Kimi payloads; the earlier tests passed because they
   sent Claude-shaped payloads. The shared normalization block now maps
   tool_output -> tool_response (inert in PreToolUse guards, where the
   field is absent), and the scanner's Kimi tests send the real shape.

2. The workflow guard's force-add block wrote its reason to stdout only.
   Kimi's exit-2 protocol feeds stderr back to the model — the exact
   fix this PR already applied to the other blocking guard — so the
   newly-awakened block would have been a silent denial. Reason now
   also routed to stderr, asserted in the test.

Also: the scanner's "unknown name" test now uses a genuinely unmapped
name (FetchURL) — Shell stopped qualifying when it entered the map —
and the workflow guard's write branch (WriteFile advisory,
StrReplaceFile .planning pass) gains behavioral coverage. All five
copies stay byte-identical (parity test green); golden fixtures
regenerated, diff verified to the five guard entries per surface.
Negative-controlled: 3 new assertions fail against the pre-fix hooks.

* docs(#2304): update changeset to cover the full five-guard fix

Review round 2 (2026-07-18) flagged the changeset as stale: it was
written for the first commit and still described only the three guards
named in the issue. The shipped diff grew to five guards plus two
payload dimensions the original body never mentioned. The body now
names gsd-read-injection-scanner and gsd-workflow-guard, the ReadFile
and Shell vocabulary entries, the tool_output -> tool_response mapping,
and the workflow guard's stderr block-reason routing.

* test(#2304): regenerate kilo golden fixture after #2305 landed on next

The branch's fixture sweep predates 50efae13 (fix(#2305), PR #2327),
which made Kilo ship the five shared guard hooks. Rebased onto next and
re-ran the full generator sweep (gen:golden, size:baseline, and the
four registry/contract generators); the only delta across all of them
is kilo.json's five guard-hook hashes, matching this PR's hook edits.

* fix(#2304): fold Kimi normalization into the two shell hooks

The 2026-07-19 review found the last two guards with the #2304 dormancy:

- hooks/gsd-graphify-update.sh gated on tool_name == "Bash" but is
  registered on Kimi with matcher 'Shell' — Gate 1 never matched and the
  auto-rebuild was silently dormant. kimi-cli's Shell.Params names its
  field `command` (src/kimi_cli/tools/shell/__init__.py), same as Claude
  Bash, so only the name needs mapping: strip the module-path prefix,
  map Shell -> Bash.
- hooks/gsd-phase-boundary.sh read only tool_input.file_path, but Kimi's
  file tools name the field `path` (src/kimi_cli/tools/file/write.py +
  replace.py) — the hook read '' and .planning/ writes went undetected.
  Falls back to tool_input.path when file_path is absent, mirroring
  normalizeKimiPayload's precedence in the JS guards.

The normalization is reimplemented in shell — a byte-identity assertion
cannot span the JS<->shell boundary, so the parity test gains a
shell-guard vocabulary block that pins both scripts' mapping facts to
convertKimiToolName's live vocabulary instead of faking a byte binding.
Behavior is covered by negative-controlled tests beside each hook's
existing suite (verified red against the pre-fix scripts): Kimi Shell
dispatch (bare + module-qualified) with a WriteFile negative control in
graphify-auto-update.slow.test.cjs, and Kimi path detection, file_path
precedence, and a non-.planning negative control in hooks-opt-in.test.cjs.

Changeset updated to name all seven guards; golden install-parity
fixtures regenerated (diff is exactly the two hook entries per runtime;
size baselines unchanged).

* fix(#2304): use a Map for KIMI_TOOL_NAMES so prototype keys cannot pass the guard fall-through

A bare bracket lookup on an object literal resolves 'constructor',
'__proto__', 'toString', 'valueOf' and 'hasOwnProperty' through
Object.prototype to truthy functions/objects, so `if (!mapped)` failed
to short-circuit and data.tool_name was assigned a non-string. Map.get
returns undefined for those keys — the same shape the repo already uses
in canonicalizeRuntimeName (src/runtime-name-policy.cts). Applied
identically to all five inlined copies (review M1, PR #2326).

No new bypass class: unrecognized strings already fail open by design;
this fixes the lookup being wrong, not the posture.

* test(#2304): enumerate normalized guards by scanning hooks/, not a hardcoded list

The parity test's file list was a literal five-entry array — a sixth guard
with its own copy-pasted normalization block would be silently uncovered,
the exact divergence mode the test exists to prevent (review M2). Now the
list is a scan of hooks/*.js for the KIMI_TOOL_NAMES marker, with a floor
assertion so a scan that finds nothing fails instead of passing vacuously.
Also parses the Map declaration introduced by the M1 fix, and carries the
allow-test-rule annotation documenting the source-text scanning (review m4).

* test(#2304): parse hook JSON output instead of substring-matching raw stdout

workflow-guard.test.cjs asserted on unparsed stdout while read-guard.test.cjs
in the same PR parses the JSON envelope first — match the better pattern at
all four assertion sites (review m5).

* test(#2304): regenerate golden parity fixtures after Map conversion in the five guards

* docs(#2304): reset changeset pr:0 placeholder for Phase 0 PR (#2507)

The closed PR #2326's changeset carried pr:2326. Phase 0 of epic #2505

to the real Phase 0 PR number immediately after gh pr create returns.
