bc5619dd27 docs(#3247): record the capability instruction-surface trust model (#3249)
* docs(#3247): record the capability instruction-surface trust model

ADR-2363 records the trust posture for third-party capability SKILL.md
bodies, which #2322/#2340 made agent-invocable without any content-level
control. The path-level protections that fix shipped are all present; no
content scanner exists, and external-descriptor-trust.cts never had one.
Nothing was bypassed - the control did not exist and the boundary was
never written down.

D1 records the posture: skill bodies are trusted, unscanned agent
instructions. D2 rejects content scanning on Kerckhoffs (a shipped rule
set is readable by the adversary who installs it), on threat-model
non-transfer from ADR-1577 (there, instructions are anomalous inside
data; here they are the payload's legitimate form), and on Goodhart (a
scanned-OK line displaces the judgment the consent prompt exists to
provoke). D3 replaces the executable/non-executable binary with three
classes, adding instruction surface.

D4 keeps instruction surfaces out of the v1 disclosureSignature. The
signature is NOT the activation binding - hasProjectConsent compares
contentHash only, and a global install carries no consent record at all.
What re-encoding would do is perturb the signature of every skill-bearing
capability and fire a spurious re-consent prompt on its next upgrade,
which is what ADR-2782 D4 rule 5 already forbids. If instruction surfaces
ever need to be signature-bound, that lands as a versioned v2 signature
with a migration, never an in-place re-encoding.

Corrects capability-trust-model.md, which claimed skills get lighter
consent because they do not execute code - true, and not the relevant
property, since the agent is the interpreter. Adds the author-side
boundary to develop-a-capability.md and links it from
publish-a-capability.md. Both state that per-skill disclosure at the
consent prompt lands with #3248 and does not happen today.

Docs-only. No behavior change; no consent record perturbed. D5's
mechanism is Phase 1 (#3248), which is why the ADR is Proposed.

a5b5860b93 fix(#3238): bump js-yaml to the patched 4.3.1 (high-severity devDep advisory) (#3246)
* chore(#3238): bump js-yaml 4.3.0 -> 4.3.1 (GHSA-5p4m-2wfm-xmqj)

Dependabot alert 14. js-yaml 4.3.0 sits inside the vulnerable range
>=4.0.0 <4.3.1 of GHSA-5p4m-2wfm-xmqj -- high, CVSS 7.5
(AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H), CWE-407 Inefficient Algorithmic
Complexity.

resolveYamlOmap() enforces `!!omap` key uniqueness with a linear
objectKeys.indexOf() scan inside the per-element loop, so resolution is O(n^2)
in entry count. `!!omap` is registered in the DEFAULT schema, so a plain
yaml.load(untrustedInput) with no options is affected. The loop is synchronous,
so it blocks the event loop -- amplification is per-process, not per-request.
Same weakness as CVE-2026-59870, fixed in 5.x at 5.2.1 and only now backported
to the 3.x/4.x lines.

Reproduced locally against the installed 4.3.0, advisory PoC, default schema:

  n= 5000 load=  22ms  -
  n=10000 load=  57ms  2.59x
  n=20000 load= 199x   3.49x
  n=40000 load= 768ms  3.86x     <- ~4x per doubling = quadratic

After the bump, same machine, same PoC:

  n= 5000 load=  33ms  -
  n=10000 load=  33ms  1.00x
  n=20000 load=  49ms  1.48x
  n=40000 load=  96ms  1.96x     <- ~2x per doubling = linear

Duplicate-key rejection is preserved (YAMLException still raised), so the
upstream indexOf -> Set swap kept the semantics it was guarding.

Scope is development-only and stays that way: js-yaml is a devDependency and is
absent from package.json's `files` allowlist, so it never ships to consumers.
`npm audit --omit=dev` reported 0 vulnerabilities before this change and still
does; `npm audit` went 1 high -> 0.

Targeted install rather than `npm audit fix`, so the blast radius is auditable:
npm reports "changed 1 package", and the lockfile diff is 4 insertions /
4 deletions touching only js-yaml. The declared floor moves ^4.2.1 -> ^4.3.1 so
a future resolution cannot land back on a vulnerable 4.3.x -- the operative fix
is the lockfile, since npm ci is lockfile-driven.

Stayed on the v4-legacy line (4.3.1) rather than jumping to `latest` 5.2.3: 5.x
is a rewritten module layout and a separate change with its own blast radius.
The v4-legacy dist-tag exists precisely so 4.x consumers can take this patch.

Regression guard mirrors tests/issue-2765-brace-expansion-lockfile.test.cjs --
the repo's existing precedent for a dev-scope lockfile bump against a
high-severity DoS advisory. It walks `npm ls --json --all` so a transitive copy
left behind still fails, and carries a vacuity guard so an empty version list
cannot pass silently. No timing assertion: wall-clock assertions are barred by
the clock-seam rule and would be load-sensitive on shared benches, so the
measurements live in the diagnosis artifact instead.

* fix(#3238): require 5.2.1 on the 5.x line; add the release-notes fragment

Three review findings, all fixed inline.

SPEC AXIS (the serious one): the guard's `(maj > 4)` clause accepted ANY 5.x.
GHSA-5p4m-2wfm-xmqj names only the 3.x and 4.x ranges, so the isolated
adversarial pass -- checking strictly against that advisory -- rated 5.0.0 as
correctly accepted. But the advisory's own body records that the SAME weakness
in the 5.x line is CVE-2026-59870 / GHSA-724g-mxrg-4qvm, fixed in 5.2.1. A
guard whose purpose is "this tree has no quadratic !!omap resolver" must
require 5.2.1 there too, or an accidental major bump to 5.0.0 silently
reintroduces the exact bug the test exists to prevent. The two reviewers
disagreed and the disagreement was load-bearing: taking only the adversarial
verdict would have shipped the hole.

ISOLATED ADVERSARIAL (item 4): Number('4.3.1-beta.1') produced NaN, and NaN
comparisons made the predicate return false. That failed safe, but by accident
rather than design, and majors outside {3,4} were reported vulnerable despite
being outside every advertised range. The predicate is now explicit -- build
metadata stripped, prerelease fails CLOSED (4.3.1-beta.1 sorts below 4.3.1 and
may predate the fix), unparseable fails closed, maj<3 accepted as predating the
affected lines.

Validated by a standalone harness over 27 version strings (12 accepted, 14
rejected, 1 build-metadata): all 27 agree with the advisory ranges. Boundary
rows on all three affected lines -- 3.15.0/3.15.1, 4.3.0/4.3.1, 5.2.0/5.2.1.

STANDARDS AXIS: the precedent this change mirrors, 54cb4145b (#2765, identical
dev-scope lockfile security bump), shipped `fix(#2765)` plus a
`.changeset/*.md` typed Fixed. This change was typed `chore` with no fragment.
Per CONTRIBUTING.md, `chore` is omitted from user-facing release notes
entirely, so a security fix would have merged invisibly. Adds the fragment
(type Fixed, pr:0 to be backfilled) and types this commit `fix`. Note the
changeset gate does not require a fragment for a package.json/tests diff
(`ok_no_user_facing_changes`) -- it is added because users should be told they
received a security patch, not to satisfy a gate.

Not fixed, recorded as not-a-defect: the near-duplication of
tests/issue-2765-brace-expansion-lockfile.test.cjs. The reviewer that raised it
also argued the repo's one-self-contained-guard-per-advisory convention is the
better call -- each advisory guard stays independently auditable and removable,
and a shared helper would couple unrelated advisories. Extracting it would also
be drive-by refactoring of a file this change only appends beside.

70e50eb1b2 chore(#3235): hoist the preamble-strip conditional out of the replace operand (#3236)
* chore(#3235): hoist the preamble-strip conditional out of the replace operand

CodeQL js/identity-replacement (alert 53, medium, CWE-116) fired on
src/roadmap-parser.cts:637. The #2947 fix (2bc53baa0) made the preamble
phase-detail strip conditional by swapping the REGEX OPERAND rather than the
operation, using `/$/` as a "match nothing" sentinel:

  .replace(currentSectionHasPhaseDetails ? /^#{2,4}\s*Phase\s+.../gim : /$/, '')

`str.replace(/$/, '')` substitutes the zero-width end-of-input match with the
empty string, so the branch is inert. Behavior was correct; the hazard is that
both branches shared ONE replacement argument, so a later change of `''` to a
non-empty string would silently give the no-op branch a real effect -- on a seam
whose blast radius is CRITICAL (200+ affected symbols, 45 files, 22 processes).

Hoist the conditional around the .replace() call instead. The do-not-strip
branch now performs no replacement at all. The `Phase Details` heading strip
stays UNCONDITIONAL in both branches, which is what #730 depends on.

Equivalence is not asserted, it is measured: a deterministic-seed differential
probe compared the old and new formulations over 320 generated inputs x both
branch values -- 640 comparisons, 0 mismatches. Corpus covered empty string,
CRLF, heading depths 1-5, the #1729 pre-colon tag form, decimal phase IDs,
`## Phase Details`, fenced blocks and horizontal rules.

Six characterization tests pin both branches, including the one case no existing
#2947 fixture covers: that the unconditional `Phase Details` strip still runs on
the do-not-strip branch. Boundary rows cover the strip regex's #{2,4} bounds at
limit-1 (h1), limit (h2/h4) and limit+1 (h5).

* test(#3235): add parser property test; kill two weak regression tests

Review findings from the orthogonal passes, all fixed inline.

Standards axis (hard violation, CLAUDE.md -> TEST RULES & CONVENTIONS):
"Parsers, budget limits, and bijective contracts must include at least one
fast-check (fc) property test." roadmap-parser is a parser module and the six
new tests were all example-based. Adds one property test over generated
preambles, asserting four invariants across BOTH branches:
  1. no `Phase Details` heading ever survives (the unconditional strip)
  2. headings outside the strip regex's #{2,4} bound always survive
  3. hasOwnDetails=true  -> preamble phase headings are gone
  4. hasOwnDetails=false -> preamble phase headings are all retained
Generator is document-shaped -- a fixed alphabet of literal line shapes, NOT
derived from the parser's own regexes (CONTRIBUTING.md #2371 fixture
provenance: a writer-seeded generator can only confirm what the author already
believed). Seed pinned to 20260809, numRuns bounded at 300, verbose replay on
failure, per the determinism rule.

Isolated adversarial review ran mutation testing against the compiled lib and
found two weak tests:

- CRLF test killed no mutant the LF-only sibling did not already kill. Its
  fixture now carries a `## Phase Details` heading, which exercises the
  `[^\n]*` / `\n?` tail of the Phase Details regex under CRLF -- a region no
  LF-only fixture can reach -- and asserts no orphaned CR is left behind.
- "no preamble does not throw" caught none of five targeted mutants.
  `.replace()` cannot throw on any string, so no mutation confined to this
  change could fail it. Deleted rather than propped up: the empty-preamble case
  is now genuinely covered by the property test's minLength:0 generator, which
  produces empty preambles on both branches. Strictly subsumed.

2a73f53cb3 fix(#3204): milestone sectioning is vocabulary, not heading position (#3230)
* test(#3204): failing-first suite for the clobbered phase count

A project declaring six phases with four phase directories on disk had
state.record-session write progress.total_phases: 4 — #2828 regressing at
1.9.1, reported in #3204 with a deterministic reproduction.

Before the fix in the following commit, these rows FAILED (wrote 4, expected
6): a flat roadmap carrying `## Progress`; one carrying `## Overview` and
`## Phase Details`; the CRLF variant of the first. Two more, found by
adversarial review and added after the first fix attempt, failed against that
attempt: structural headings interleaved among flat phase headings, and this
repo's own bundled-template shape (a `## Phases` wrapper around a single
nested milestone).

The #1761 control — sibling milestone sections must keep falling back to the
disk count — passes both before and after, so the fix has something it must
not break.

Assertions read progress.total_phases through the product's own frontmatter
parser via `state json --raw`, never a regex over STATE.md. Rows 12 and 13
are hostile: a phase heading carrying a version token, and a version heading
inside a fenced code block; neither may count as milestone sectioning.

* fix(#3204): milestone sectioning is vocabulary, not heading position

buildStateFrontmatter chooses total_phases between the ROADMAP's declared
phase count and the on-disk directory count, and refuses the roadmap count
when hasMilestoneSectioning says the document is milestone-sectioned — because
a whole-document count would then conflate sibling milestones (#1761).

That predicate returned true for ANY non-Phase level-2/3 heading, so a flat
roadmap carrying an ordinary `## Progress` was called sectioned and the disk
count clobbered the declared one: six declared phases, four directories,
total_phases written as 4, converging on the truth only once the last
directory happened to exist. That is #2828 regressing at 1.9.1, and it came
from this epic — #3184 replaced state.cts's hand-rolled #2828 guard with this
predicate, and the replacement is strictly more permissive than the guard it
retired.

Three position-based models were tried and all failed, because position does
not carry milestone-ness:

  - any non-Phase heading (shipped) — over-detects, giving #3204;
  - strict nesting/ownership — misses same-level siblings, regressing #1761,
    and false-positives on the bundled template, where `## Phases` wraps a
    single `### v1.1`;
  - adjacency — reproduced live: `## Overview` and `## Notes` interleaved
    among six phase headings are two owning candidates, so a 6-phase roadmap
    with 2 directories wrote 2.

A heading is now a milestone heading iff it is a non-Phase heading carrying a
milestone signal: a version token, a status marker, or the word Milestone.
Sectioning means two or more, since one cannot conflate siblings.

Known limit, recorded in the doc comment rather than hidden: two milestone
sections carrying none of those three signals are not detected.

Also drops buildStateFrontmatter's local dedup-key regex, flagged in-source as
diverging from the canonical token rule, for phaseKeyFromDir — the remainder
of #3185, since #3222 had already routed the enumeration itself through
listMilestonePhaseDirs.

#1514, #2445 and #3017 are preserved untouched.

Closes #3185
Fixes #3204

* docs(#3185): changeset, glossary entry and ADR status for the phase-count fix

CONTEXT.md's Roadmap Parser Module entry never named hasMilestoneSectioning,
so the predicate whose semantics this change reverses had no glossary presence
at all — a PR gate for a module/seam change. Added, covering the vocabulary
model, the three position-based models that failed, and the residual limit.

ADR-3180 recorded the fifth enumeration copy as unowned in four places. It is
owned now. Amendment 4's scope table row 1 also carried an error worth keeping
visible rather than rewriting: it claimed Phase 3 merged without routing the
state writers, when #3222 had in fact routed the enumeration — the audit read
Amendment 3's silence about the symbol names as absence of the work. The real
gap was the trust discriminator one layer above, which is what #3204 was.

Changeset is Fixed and leads with the symptom a user sees — a phase count that
shrinks to match how many phase directories happen to exist yet — and carries
the known limit forward rather than leaving it in a source comment.

* fix(#3185): stop quoting the retired phase-token regex in a comment

The remote runner failed tests/phase-id-drift-guard.test.cjs: the comment
explaining that the local dedup regex had been replaced by phaseKeyFromDir
quoted that regex verbatim, and scripts/lint-phase-id-drift.cjs scans for the
literal token without caring whether it sits in code or in prose.

That is the guard being right, not over-eager — a quoted pattern is one paste
away from being live again, which is exactly how the copy it replaced spread.
Described in prose instead.

Worth recording: this guard is check:phase-id-drift, which lint:ci does not
run — it is enforced by tests/phase-id-drift-guard.test.cjs. A green lint:ci
is therefore not evidence the drift guards pass.

86bebcefa2 refactor(#3216): bind milestone identity to the canonical locator (#3226)
* refactor(#3216): widen milestone-window guard to literal-## matchers

The guard keyed only on the `#{N,M}` quantifier plus a literal version or
phase-lookahead token. getMilestoneInfo hand-rolls its milestone-heading match
with a literal `^##`/`## ` and an interpolated ${escapedVer}, so it satisfied
neither token and the guard reported a clean zero on a file carrying live
re-derivations (#3171, #3197) — a zero it did not earn.

Widen token (a) to a literal 2-6 `#` run, admitted ONLY inside a heading-MATCHER
literal (a regex literal, or a string/template handed to new RegExp) so a
heading-BUILDING template is not mistaken for a re-derivation. Widen token (b)
with the grouped `v(\d+(?:\.\d+)+)` shape and an interpolated version
placeholder.

Ships BEFORE the consolidation per ADR-3180 s7.2: a guard widened afterwards
measures an already-cleaned surface. It is expected to be RED until the
consolidation lands.

* test(#3216): failing-first milestone-identity single-owner suite

63 tests across two files, from the matrix in .gsd/phase/. Section H of
milestone-window-single-owner.test.cjs covers the 21 input classes of the
design's behavior table plus its negative space; milestone-window-drift-guard
covers the widened tokens and proves the exemption is function-scoped, not
file-scoped.

Copy count is 3 found by the guard, not 1 per the epic (ADR-3180 Amendment 3's
standing rule, holding for the fourth consecutive phase): both getMilestoneInfo
sites plus cmdRoadmapAnalyze's milestone enumeration at roadmap.cts:454, which
carries the same #3171 truncation and #3197 phase-heading confusion.

Expected RED until the consolidation lands.

* refactor(#3216): bind milestone identity to the canonical locator

getMilestoneInfo hand-rolled two milestone-heading regexes inside the owner's
own file. Both were wrong, differently: the STATE-version site's ^## anchor is
level-blind so [^\n]* absorbs a third #, and the fallback site had no anchor at
all, so '## ' matched from the second # of '###'. Against
'### Phase 7: Close v3.3 gaps' the fallback returned {v3.3, gaps} (#3197). Both
captured names with [^\n(], truncating at a parenthetical (#3171).

Bind both to the canonical grammar. locateMilestoneHeadings becomes a
version-filtered view over one shared source, and a new version-agnostic
listMilestoneHeadings enumerates milestone headings for callers that need all
of them. getMilestoneInfo returns ScopedResult<MilestoneInfo|null>; the
{v1.0,'milestone'} default, which was output-identical to a real v1.0 project,
is deleted. The #2245 never-throws invariant is preserved.

Copy count: 3 found by the guard, not 1 per the epic. The third was
cmdRoadmapAnalyze's own milestone enumeration (roadmap.cts:454), carrying both
defects in the implementation the epic blessed.

buildStateFrontmatter and archivePhaseDirectories branch on scope: the first
writes null rather than a fabricated identity, the second falls through to its
dated-label fallback. A fabricated v3.3 passes ARCHIVE_VERSION_LABEL_RE, so it
would otherwise misfile phase history.

Also fixes an unsafe cast in init.cts that masked these type errors across five
call sites, which would have shipped undefined milestone fields under green tsc.

* fix(#3216): restore the #1761 unbounded guard and bullet precedence

Review and the first full-matrix run surfaced five real defects in the
consolidation, all fixed here rather than by relaxing the tests that caught
them:

- buildStateFrontmatter gated its isMilestoneBoundedInRoadmap check on the
  scope-gated milestone value, which is null on any non-COMPLETE scope, so the
  #1761 unbounded guard was silently skipped and state json reported a percent
  it must omit. It now gates on the STATE-asserted version, independent of
  identity scope.
- The rewrite lost #2135's precedence: the name-bearing progress-marker bullet
  is consulted before the heading again.
- A single-segment version (v3, no dot) did not resolve; the name-extraction
  fallback now accepts it.
- A version carrying regex metacharacters, or a $& / $1 replacement pattern,
  is matched literally.
- listMilestoneHeadings' heading field trimmed, so a CRLF roadmap no longer
  leaks a trailing carriage return into roadmap analyze's output.

Also emits milestone_version / milestone_name / current_milestone as explicit
null rather than omitting the key, so the prompt layer cannot render a bare
placeholder, and corrects an init.cts comment plus a cast left inconsistent.

* test(#3216): update milestone-identity expectations to the scoped contract

getMilestoneInfo returns ScopedResult<MilestoneInfo|null> and the
{v1.0,'milestone'} default is deleted, so the suites asserting the old shape
assert removed behavior. Updated rather than weakened: every touched call site
now asserts the scope explicitly against the frozen SCOPE enum.

roadmap-parser.test.cjs: 20 expectations moved to {value,scope}. The #1881
unreadable-vs-absent diagnostic assertions are untouched and still prove their
original point — only the return shape moved. One pre-existing assert.ok(info)
is now a specific UNSCOPED assertion, so that case is stronger than before.

new-milestone-clear-phases.test.cjs: the test asserting phases clear archives
under the v1.0 default now asserts the dated archived-<YYYYMMDD> fallback,
which is the deliberate consequence of deleting that default.

Two of this branch's own tests were also corrected after they drove the
implementation the wrong way: the parity test compared raw heading text and so
pushed a stray ## prefix into roadmap analyze's public output, and the hostile
metacharacter row demanded a pathological version resolve, which pushed a
widening of the ADR-locked \b boundary. Both now assert what the contract
actually requires.

* docs(#3216): document milestone identity and correct the CONTEXT.md entry

ADR-3180 s7.2 moves to Enforced and gains two rules that were unstated: the
name derives from the heading's own version token and drops a trailing status
marker, and a free-form legacy ROADMAP with no version anywhere is UNSCOPED
with no identity rather than a defaulted v1.0 (decided by the maintainer before
implementation, per s7's own rule that an unstated behavior is not decided).
Amendment 4 records Phase 6's validation, including that the copy count was a
lower bound for the fourth consecutive phase.

CONTEXT.md's Roadmap Parser entry described locateMilestoneHeadings as
boundary-matched with (?![\w.-]) — the alternative Amendment 2 tried and
REVERTED. The code uses \b and says so, and the ADR agrees; the revert updated
code and ADR and missed CONTEXT.md, which is the epic's own fixed-on-one-copy
failure class in the docs layer, on a file that is itself a PR gate.

* fix(#3216): persist the real version on a truncated identity

buildStateFrontmatter wrote null for BOTH milestone and milestone_name on any
non-COMPLETE scope, discarding a real version. ADR-3180 s7.2 rule 6: a version
known with no resolvable name is TRUNCATED carrying {version, name: null} —
'the version is a real answer, the name is a non-answer, and collapsing the two
is the failure this contract exists to prevent.'

The two fields are now gated by what is actually known: the version whenever one
exists (COMPLETE or TRUNCATED), the name only on COMPLETE. Never fabricated.

Caught by this phase's own Decision 4(c) consumer-output test, which is the
argument for asserting at the consumer rather than the owner — the owner was
correct throughout; only the consumer collapsed its answer.

* refactor(#3216): extract helpers and make cmdCommit's scope gate explicit

From the two-axis code review:

- init.cts repeated the identical getMilestoneInfo cast at five sites with
  copy-pasted comments — duplication inside a PR whose thesis is that duplicates
  get deleted. Extracted milestoneRecord(cwd); the one site-specific comment is
  kept, the four generic copies removed.
- getMilestoneInfo hand-built its { value, scope } literal at ten return points;
  a local scoped() constructor now does it once. Every per-branch rationale
  comment is preserved and no returned value or scope changed.
- cmdCommit gated the milestone branch name on plain truthiness, which is also
  true for TRUNCATED, so an unresolved identity drove branch creation
  incidentally rather than deliberately. It now gates on the SCOPE enum,
  accepting COMPLETE or TRUNCATED because both carry a real version, and the
  comment records why that differs from archivePhaseDirectories — which demands
  COMPLETE because it uses the value as a filesystem path component.

* test(#3216): cover the bare-version-in-prose truncated path

The spec review found the bareVersionMatch path — no STATE version, no
milestone heading, a version token only in prose — returning TRUNCATED with no
test exercising that exact shape, violating Decision 4's boundary-coverage
requirement.

* docs(#3216): record the missed Tier-2 surfaces and rule 5's corollary

Decision 3 requires an explicit call-out for EVERY Tier-2 change, and Amendment
4's first draft named eight surfaces while the change touched thirteen. Adds
cmdCommit's branch-name construction and the four init JSON bundles, an
incomplete list being the same defect in miniature that this epic removes.

s7.2 rule 5 gains a corollary separating two cases the original wording ran
together: no version token ANYWHERE is UNSCOPED, while a bare version token in
prose or a non-milestone heading is weak but real evidence and yields TRUNCATED
under rule 6.

b9f51836e6 refactor(#3180): ADR-3180 behavior contract + cross-surface drift guardrails (#3223)
* refactor(#3180): one owner for completion ratio, a prompt-layer drift guard, and a written behavior contract

The 2026-08-08 coverage audit on #3180 found the epic's copy counts were a
lower bound for the third consecutive time, and that two derivation families
had never been named at all.

ADR-3180 gains Decision 7 — a normative behavior contract that says what the
right answer IS for each derivation, not merely who owns it. A reviewer with
no written rule can only ask "does this look like the others", which is how a
fifth copy passes review. Decision 4 gains (d) scan surface is every authored
surface and an owner FILE is never exempt, only its named functions; and (e)
a surface that cannot be consolidated today ships ratcheted, never unguarded.

Completion ratio: `clampPercent` sat exported and unused beside six hand-inlined
copies of its own body across five modules. All six now route through it;
`clampPercentFromFraction` is added for the one caller that already held a
fraction. Every migration is behaviour-identical — clampPercent's first line IS
the `total > 0 ? … : 0` ternary each copy carried. Guarded by
lint-completion-ratio-drift.cjs, which reports zero re-derivations with no
file-level exemption.

Prompt layer: workflow markdown re-derives live-plan counting in raw shell
(#1762), invisible to every `src/`-scoped guard. lint-planning-prompt-drift.cjs
scans it with a shrink-only baseline of the 7 sites that exist today — new
sites fail, and a baseline entry that stops firing fails too, so an
acknowledgment can never outlive the thing it describes.

lint-milestone-window-drift.cjs stops exempting its owner file wholesale; only
the four named canonical functions are exempt now. The blanket exemption was
pointed at the one file most likely to grow the next copy, and it had.

* fix(#3180): address orthogonal review — consumer-output identity tests, count-keyed ratchet, property coverage

Five findings from the two orthogonal review passes, all fixed.

Decision 4(c) breach: the completion-ratio identity test asserted at the
OWNER, which is exactly the bypass that decision exists to close — a consumer
can call clampPercent and then post-process locally, leaving both the lint and
an owner-level test green. It now drives `roadmap analyze`, `query progress`
and `stats` and asserts on their own output, over a fixture containing a
`status: superseded` plan so a consumer that re-counted raw files would report
60 where the owner reports 75.

Decision 4(e) breach: ratchet entries named the epic (#3180) rather than the
issue that removes them. They name Phase 8 (#3218) now.

The ratchet keyed on (file, text) alone, so plan-phase.md's two byte-identical
sites were one indistinguishable key and migrating either would have left the
guard green with the other alive. Entries carry an occurrence count; fewer than
acknowledged fails as a partial migration, more fails as a new copy.

Adds the missing MAX_REGEX_LITERAL_LEN boundary coverage the sibling guard's
test already had, and the fast-check property tests CONTRIBUTING requires for
clamp/budget-limit functions.

* test: stop wrapping a nested double-spawn in a 15s wall-clock budget (bug #641 probes)

`tests/ci-test-scope.test.cjs`'s `bug #641` block spawned `run-tests.cjs`
under PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS=15000; that child then spawned a nested `node --test`.
A fixed wall-clock budget around a double spawn, running inside a container
that is concurrently executing the full ~31k-test suite, fails by construction
under load.

Confirmed against three full matrix runs. Every failure was shaped
`null !== 0` — the child was KILLED, never an assertion about the thing under
test. One captured probe had already printed the correct resolution
(`suite="all" files=2: a.test.cjs b.test.cjs`) and was killed anyway. It
reproduces on `next` alone: 5 failures on linux-node22, 0 on linux-node24. The
victim subset varies by run and by lane.

What these tests are actually about is suite-token RESOLUTION — `unit` as a
bare token in --files/--files-from. Executing the seeded trivial files is
incidental and is the entire timeout surface, so the assertions move
in-process against the same functions `main()` calls, in the same order.
`parseArgs`, `selectExplicitFiles`, `selectFiles` and `walkTestFiles` are
exported for that; no behavior, signature or logic changed.

No coverage lost: `tests/run-tests-harness.test.cjs` already spawns the
harness for real and asserts exit codes end to end, on a 120s budget.

Pre-existing on `next`, fixed here rather than deferred.

* test: delete the three elapsed-time assertions

CLAUDE.md forbids asserting on wall-clock time. Three assertions did, and all
three are load-sensitive: on a saturated bench each can fail while the code
under test is correct. In every case the load-bearing assertion sits on the
line above and the timing line adds no discrimination.

run-with-timeout: the stated worry — "was this 124 the cap firing or the 30s
harness backstop?" — is already answered by the assertion above it. A backstop
kills by signal, which surfaces as status null, never 124. Observed directly
this session: three matrix runs produced exactly that null shape from killed
children.

normalize-test-command and context-predicates: both bounded a ReDoS check.
A threshold only ever separates "fast" from "slightly slow", which is bench
load, not correctness — catastrophic backtracking on 800 KB of input does not
take 251ms, it does not finish at all. A real regression therefore shows up as
the suite being killed on that test, which is louder and more reliable than a
number. The structural assertions (returned unchanged; cleanly rejected) are
what actually carry those tests, and they stay.

The sweep now reports zero elapsed-time assertions in tests/. The remaining
Date.now() uses are unique-path suffixes, barrier deadlines, fixture
timestamps and fake mtimes — none of them assertions.

Pre-existing on `next`, fixed here rather than deferred.

* fix(#3180): key the prompt-drift ratchet on POSIX paths so it works on Windows

The baseline keys on (file, trimmed text). `file` came from scanTree's
`path.relative()`, which uses NATIVE separators, while the committed baseline
stores POSIX. On Windows every violation was therefore unmatched — reported as
FRESH — and every baseline entry matched nothing — reported as STALE. The guard
failed 100% of the time there, on both CI shards:

  ✖ scanRepo(repoRoot) matches the baseline exactly: zero fresh AND zero stale
    + { file: 'gsd-core\\workflows\\execute-plan.md', ... }

The remote runner this repo gates on is Linux-only and cannot see this class at
all; the GitHub Actions Windows lane is what caught it.

Normalization is unconditional — never gated on process.platform. A
platform-conditional normalizer makes the POSIX path the special case and
leaves the Windows branch unexercised on every other OS, which is the same
blind spot in a different place. It is applied at one seam inside
findPromptDrift, which builds `file` on every returned violation, so the
baseline key, the --update writer, the stderr report and the tests all consume
one normalized value.

The regression tests drive a Windows-shaped relPath directly and run on every
OS rather than skipping off-Windows — a test that only runs on the platform
where the bug lives is why this escaped. They include a sanity check that
un-normalized input does NOT match, so the assertion cannot pass vacuously.

Audited the three sibling guards: none keys against a committed cross-platform
baseline, and their exemption keys are path.join-built, so producer and
consumer share the native convention. Left correct code alone rather than
making them look alike. scripts/lib/drift-scan.cjs is untouched — normalizing
there would break those three on Windows.

636ec92107 refactor(#3185): phase enumeration has one owner and a decidable scope (#3222)
* test(#3185): failing-first phase-enumeration single-owner suite

Covers the enumeration rows with direct code evidence: 999.* backlog dirs
listed by progress/stats, the phase-0 sentinel divergence, the #1324
letter-prefixed-decimal negative space, and the destructive-path find —
cmdPhasesClear carries a fifth sentinel copy (/^999(?:\.|$)/) that excludes
999 but not 0, so a 0-* directory roadmap.analyze preserves is deleted there.

Also covers the pass-all degrade, which is where the defect actually lives:
when the milestone window declares no phases the filter becomes a literal
() => true and its heading-side sentinel exclusion is unreachable. A fixture
carrying phase headings keeps the filter active and never reaches that path.

Named for the derivation, not a module: the suite drives commands, phase,
milestone, workstream-inventory and state, and both the phase and
phase-locator buckets are already at the per-module test-file cap.

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

* refactor(#3185): phase enumeration has one owner and a decidable scope

Adds phase-locator.cts::listMilestonePhaseDirs as the single canonical owner
of "which phase directories belong to the current milestone". It applies the
milestone window AND the sentinel filter and returns a ScopedResult, so a
caller can tell a genuinely-empty milestone from an enumeration that could
not be scoped.

The sentinel test now runs against DIRECTORY NAMES and is unconditional.
getMilestonePhaseFilter excludes sentinels from its ROADMAP heading set, but
degrades to a literal () => true pass-all predicate when that set is empty --
at which point the heading set is never consulted and its sentinel exclusion
is unreachable exactly when it is needed. That degrade is the #3167 path, and
it is why stats already used the filter and still listed backlog directories.
The narrowing is sentinel-only: pass-all stays over-inclusive otherwise.

Sentinel copies deleted, canonical isSentinelPhaseId adopted:
  - cmdRoadmapAnalyze's local closure (parseInt === 0 || === 999), 2 call sites
  - cmdPhasesClear's /^999(?:\.|$)/ -- the DESTRUCTIVE path, which excluded
    999 but not 0, so a 0-* directory roadmap.analyze preserves was deleted

cmdStats also seeded rows from ROADMAP headings with no sentinel filter, so a
999 heading produced a row with no directory; that seed is filtered now.

cmdPhasesList routes only its ENUMERATION. --phase lookup searches the
physical set (scoping it would report an out-of-window phase as not found) and
--include-archived still merges archived dirs (they are by definition from
other milestones). Both exempt by documented reason, never a file allowlist.

Fixed inline, found while building: isDirInMilestone could not match a #1324
letter-prefixed-decimal directory (P0.0-foundation) to its own Phase P0.0
heading, so stats reported the phase with plans: 0 while its directory held
plan files. Defers to phase-id's extractPhaseToken rather than widening a
fourth bespoke regex; additive, so it can only admit directories.

* refactor(#3185): route the last two enumeration re-derivations

workstream-inventory countRoadmapPhases counted every `Phase` heading across
the whole ROADMAP -- no window, no sentinel filter -- so it counted 999.*
backlog and Phase 0 and spanned every milestone the document ever had. Its own
caller already resolved a currentVersion and passed it to getMilestonePhaseFilter
elsewhere in the same file; this was the sibling copy that never got the fix.

state.cts phaseInventoryProvider enumerated phase dirs with its own
/^(\d+)-(.+)$/ convention regex and neither filter, so a rebuilt STATE.md
inventory carried backlog and sentinel directories as current-milestone phases.
A non-COMPLETE enumeration scope now throws to the outer catch as a real scan
failure rather than reporting a confident undercount, mirroring the per-phase
scanPhasePlans contract beside it.

* refactor(#3185): consolidate 23 sentinel re-derivations onto one predicate

The whole-repo drift guard (ADR-3180 Decision 4a, no file allowlist) found the
sentinel rule re-implemented 23 times across 8 modules, in three regex variants
plus four integer-comparison forms. Most tested 999 only, so Phase 0 slipped
through them while roadmap.analyze and the engine-wide convention (#1580) both
treat 0 and 999 alike. That disagreement is the defect class this epic removes.

All 23 now call phase-id's isSentinelPhaseId (SENTINEL_RANGES [0,999]). Sites:
init recommended-actions and backlog counts, milestone phase scan, the
phase-lifecycle progress table, phase.cts used-number collection and the four
renumber-on-remove guards, roadmap-parser's heading and bullet milestone
counts, roadmap get-phase fallbacks, and state's heading denominator.

Excluding Phase 0 at these sites is a deliberate behavior change and the point
of the consolidation — several carried comments already saying 0 should be
excluded while the literal beside them caught only 999.

Adds scripts/lint-phase-enumeration-drift.cjs, wired into lint:ci. It scans the
whole src/ tree with no file allowlist and reports both shapes: an independent
phases-dir enumeration, and an independent sentinel literal. Exemptions are
function-scoped with a written reason. The guard is comment-aware — its first
pass flagged JSDoc and a comment documenting that the code below uses the
canonical owner, which would have trained readers to exempt prose.

* refactor(#3185): resolve every phases-dir enumeration; drift guard reports zero

Per-site triage of the 31 remaining whole-repo guard hits, applying the rule
generalized from #3183's Amendment 1: a LOOKUP, DIAGNOSTIC, ARCHIVAL or
MUTATION pass wants the physical set; only "which phases belong to this
milestone" wants the scoped set.

Routed (10): init new-milestone phase_dir_count, init milestone-op fallback
count, init manager, init progress, milestone complete stats/dry-run/archive
move, phase complete's next-phase scan, state update-progress, state
frontmatter stats, and uat audit's active set.

Exempt with a written function-scoped reason (never a file allowlist): the
audit/UAT/verification sweeps that deliberately scan every directory to report
gaps, phase create/insert/rename/renumber mutations, single-phase lookups,
roadmap-upgrade's cross-milestone migration, cmdPhasesClear's whole-tree
destructive pass, and the reads that list a phase dir's FILES rather than
enumerating the phases dir at all.

Latent defects fixed by the routing: sentinel directories leaked into
cmdInitNewMilestone's phase_dir_count, cmdMilestoneComplete's stats, dry-run
AND ARCHIVE MOVE, cmdStateUpdateProgress, buildStateFrontmatter and
cmdAuditUat's active set — every one of those hand-rolled an isDirInMilestone
filter with no sentinel exclusion, so `milestone complete` was archiving
backlog directories.

scripts/lint-phase-enumeration-drift.cjs now reports 0 re-derivations and
npm run lint:ci is green.

Amendment 3 records: the SCOPE contract held unchanged; the declared deviation
from Decision 1's provisional signature (the window needs cwd/ws, which the
locked roadmapContent parameter cannot supply); the copy count being a lower
bound for the third consecutive phase (4 scoped vs 54 found); the load-bearing
finding that the sentinel exclusion sat on the heading set and was unreachable
under the pass-all degrade; the two destructive-path defects; and the
generalized exemption rule.

* fix(#3185): wire scope to consumers; revert two wrong routings the suite caught

Review + remote runner findings, all fixed:

The three consumers computed the enumeration scope and threw it away, so
TRUNCATED/UNSCOPED/UNREADABLE collapsed into the same output as COMPLETE --
reproducing this epic's own output-identical-failure defect one layer up.
progress, stats and phases list now emit phase_scope (null on the phases list
--phase lookup path, which performs no enumeration).

Two routings were wrong and the suite proved it:

roadmap-parser's two milestone phase-count scans are reverted to the 999-only
literal. isSentinelPhaseId is BROADER than what it replaced: its legacy branch
runs /^0*(\d+)/ over "00.1", which backtracks to capture 0, so it read #2554's
decimal phase ids as sentinel milestone 0 and stopped counting them.

state.cts phaseInventoryProvider is reverted to the physical disk scan.
`state rebuild` is a RECONCILIATION pass -- scoping it made it throw on healthy
trees whose fixture resolves no window, swallowed the raw readdirSync fault
message #3057 B1 requires verbatim, and stopped it dropping orphan STATE.md
rows, which is the job.

Both are now function-scoped guard exemptions with written reasons, not
silent reverts. This is the consolidation trap named in the epic: a canonical
rule can cover MORE than the copy it replaces, and only real inputs show it.

Adds phases list coverage, a scope-branch test, and a drift-guard unit suite;
backports comment-awareness to the milestone-window and plan-count guards so
all three siblings share one false-positive profile; names #3161 alongside
#3167 in Amendment 3's subsumption record.

* fix(#3185): correct isSentinelPhaseId's decimal-zero misclassification

An isolated security review caught this branch committing the epic's own sin:
the over-broad predicate was worked around at ONE call site and left live at
the destructive ones.

isSentinelPhaseId's legacy branch ran /^0*(\d+)/, which backtracks so any id
whose leading digit run is all zeros before a non-digit captures 0 -- "0.1",
"00.1" and "0.2554" all read as sentinel milestone 0. Two pinned contracts
disagree with that: #2554 requires "00.1" to be counted as a real phase, and
the 999 icebox is a whole reserved milestone so "999.1" must stay sentinel.

The rule is asymmetric and now says so explicitly: 999 is sentinel with or
without a decimal part; 0 is sentinel only when bare. A decimal phase under
either is a real phase for 0 and reserved for 999, because 999 reserves a
MILESTONE while 0 reserves a PHASE.

Fixing the owner lets the earlier workaround go: getMilestonePhaseFilter's two
scans route through isSentinelPhaseId again and the guard exemption that
existed only to accommodate the defect is deleted. The state.cts cmdStateRebuild
exemption stays -- that one is a genuine reconciliation-wants-the-physical-set
case.

Also corrects tests/adr-612-bracket-grammar.test.cjs, which asserted
isSentinelPhaseId('0.1') === true and so had encoded the defect as expected
behavior.

* fix(#3185): keep isSentinelPhaseId's semantics — 0.x is layered, not wrong

Reverts the previous commit. The remote suite failed six tests proving it
wrong, and the reason is the sharpest finding of this phase.

An isolated security review observed that isSentinelPhaseId reads 0.1 and 00.1
as sentinel milestone 0 and judged that a defect against #2554. Correcting the
canonical predicate broke #2949. Both contracts are pinned and both are right,
because they ask different questions:

  #2554  is this dir part of the current milestone's phase SET?  -> count 00.1
  #2949  must this phase COMPLETE before the milestone closes?   -> 0.x sentinel

No single global predicate answers both. isSentinelPhaseId keeps its semantics
(0.x IS a sentinel, #2949), and the milestone-window layer keeps a narrower
999-only rule (#2554) as a function-scoped guard exemption with a written
reason — not a second silent copy.

That corrects how Decision 1 reads: "one owner per derivation" governs who
computes an answer, not how many questions share it. An over-broad canonical
rule is as much a defect as a divergent copy and fails worse, because it looks
like consolidation. Recorded in Amendment 3 as the lesson for Phases 4 and 5.

Where a review's inference about intent conflicts with a pinned contract, the
pinned contract wins; the finding is adjudicated, not fixed.

The boundary tables in the enumeration suite are corrected to assert 0.x IS a
sentinel, with the layering explained.

bc3a3f170f docs(#3215): add ADR-3212 lexical seam consolidation (Phase 0) (#3221)
Design-lock ADR for epic #3212 — the lexical layer beneath the #1372
markdown-sectionizer and #2143 table/mutation seams.

Locks seven decisions Phases 1-4 execute against:
- src/pattern.cts as sole owner of dynamic regex construction,
  delegating to the built-in RegExp.escape; the ten private
  escapeRegex/escapeRegExp/escapeRe copies are deleted, not merged
- engines.node floor raised to the Active LTS line (>=24), which is
  what makes RegExp.escape reachable; delegating-shim alternative
  recorded and rejected
- src/text-lines.cts as sole owner of line-terminator handling —
  the primitive the existing no-crlf-fragile-split prohibition lacks;
  brings frontmatter.cts in from the #1372 exclusion
- tokenizer-first for stateful grammars, with a decidable five-condition
  test, generalizing the proven hooks/lib/git-cmd.js token-walk (#3129)
- bounded quantifiers over caller-supplied content
- extend-never-mutate (inherited from ADR-2143 §2)
- prohibition with teeth: no-adhoc-regex-escape, no-unbounded-quantifier,
  no-crlf-fragile-split widened to src/, plus a parity assertion

Explicit non-goal: no wholesale regex-to-parser rewrite. A census found
2,113 regex literals across 317 files; most are correct and stay.

Docs-only. No production code.

63a677aed4 docs(#3198): record project-gitignore-for-third-party-agent-runtime as out-of-scope (#3219)
Records the 2026-08-08 triage denial of #3198 in the .out-of-scope/ knowledge
base so the prior-denial check on a future triage sweep can find it, rather
than the reasoning living only in a closed-issue comment.

The request asked to add .omc/ and .omo/ to "the init-template .gitignore".
gsd-core ships no such template: the __pycache__/*.pyc pair quoted in the
report is gsd-core's own repo .gitignore, and at init the only project
.gitignore write is a single .planning/ line under commit_docs = No. The
.omc and .omo directories have zero occurrences anywhere in the repo.

The entry's "What this does NOT cover" section keeps adjacent asks live --
notably any report that gsd-core itself writes churning runtime state outside
.planning/, which would be a real defect and is not denied here.

Closes #3198

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

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

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

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

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

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

Review fixes from the two orthogonal passes.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

* test(#3184): assert install and uninstall agree on scripts/lib and scripts/changeset

Found while shipping this phase, and fixed here rather than noted.

install() copies scripts/lib/ and scripts/changeset/ into the target WHOLESALE —
the comment at the copy site literally says "and any future lib helpers".
uninstall() removes them by hardcoded enumeration, deliberately, so a user's own
helpers in those directories survive. A wholesale writer paired with an
enumerated remover cannot stay in sync by construction: any file added to either
directory ships to every user and is then orphaned in their repo forever, since
it survives uninstall, leaves the directory non-empty, and the rmdir that follows
fails. Nothing reported this. 31,225 tests were green over it.

That is the same divergence class this epic exists to delete, sitting in the
installer, so it gets the same remedy CLAUDE.md prescribes for it: a parity
assertion that fails the moment the two surfaces disagree. The test compares each
directory's real contents against its enumeration and names the offending file
plus the constant to add it to.

Both enumerations are hoisted to module scope and exported, so the test asserts
on the actual arrays rather than pattern-matching the installer's source — no
allow-test-rule annotation needed. Proven non-vacuous both ways: empty diff on
the current tree, correct report when an unenumerated file is injected.

scripts/changeset/ turned out to carry the identical defect and is covered too.

f3ce2dbab5 docs(#3156): name the isolation this helper does NOT provide
Found by the pre-push adversarial review of this round, and worth recording in
the code rather than only in the PR thread.

installSpawnHome() creates one sandbox home per test-FILE process, not one per
spawn, so two installer spawns in the same file share .gsd state. The
containment claim is unaffected -- nothing reaches the developer's real home --
and it is strictly better than the status quo it replaces, which shared the real
home and every byte of its state. But "contained" and "isolated from each other"
are different properties, and only the first is claimed.

78330e505c fix(#3174): read quick's verification status via the verification.status query
`gsd-core/workflows/quick/steps/quick-verification.md` read the verifier's
result with `grep "^status:" F | cut -d: -f2 | tr -d ' '` and routed it through
a table whose only arms were passed / human_needed / gaps_found. That read
fails two ways. Driven against the old pipeline:

  never written (verifier died)      -> empty        -> no arm
  off-schema value                   -> weird_value  -> no arm
  `status:` in frontmatter AND prose -> two lines    -> no arm
  valid `passed` on a CRLF checkout  -> passed\r     -> no arm
  stale report still reading passed  -> passed       -> SUCCESS
  `status: passed` in the prose only -> passed       -> SUCCESS
  off-schema `passed:bogus`          -> passed       -> SUCCESS

The first four leave the orchestrating agent improvising at the moment the
pipeline failed. The last three are silent false passes: staleness was never
evaluated, the match was not anchored to frontmatter, and `cut -d: -f2` splits
an off-schema value at its own colon. The CRLF row is a pre-existing Windows
bug this change closes as a side effect.

The unanchored match is DEFECT.FRONTMATTER-SCALAR-BROAD-GREP, which the code
side already fixed by name — `readVerificationStatus` parses frontmatter only,
anchored at byte 0, and is total over its input space, returning `missing`,
`unknown` and `stale` sentinels. execute-phase.md, verify-work.md and
progress.md all read this same artifact through that query already; quick was
the remaining second mechanism.

Route quick's read through it and add an explicit terminal arm.

Three details a naive swap misses:

- The step file carries the runtime shim bootstrap itself. Step files are read
  and executed as their own units, so quick.md's bootstrap does not reach here.
  Copied byte-identically from gsd-core/workflows/_runtime-launcher.snippet.sh,
  the source sync-runtime-launcher.cjs generates every workflow's copy from.
  Without it the call resolves to nothing, 2>/dev/null swallows the error, and
  the fix degrades to a permanently-taken recovery arm.

- No jq. `--pick status` returns the bare value. Per #2589 a `| jq -r` pipe
  yields an EMPTY variable with no diagnostic wherever jq is absent — the
  Windows/Git-Bash default — which here would route a passing verification into
  the recovery arm, strictly worse than the grep being replaced.

- $VERIFICATION_STATUS is a DISPLAY string ("Verified" / "Needs Review" /
  "Gaps") consumed at quick.md:619 and quick.md:684, not the raw status. The
  raw value lands in $STATUS and the new arm sets both, so the failure path
  does not emit an empty index-table cell.

next_action / next_command are deliberately not surfaced. readVerificationStatus
discovers and parses shape-agnostically, which is what makes the status half
correct for ${QUICK_DIR}; but it also reads the directory basename as a phase
token to build those commands, and a quick dir is `${quick_id}-${slug}` with a
date-derived quick_id — so the projection carries the date as a phase argument.
Quick supplies its own recovery actions instead.

Adds tests/fix-3174-quick-verification-status-read.test.cjs under
`allow-test-rule: source-text-is-the-product` (CONTRIBUTING.md's exception
matrix; the pattern tests/verify-work-auto-transition.test.cjs already uses for
verify-work's status-query ordering). It pins five properties: the query
replaces the grep, the bootstrap precedes the call, the bootstrap matches the
canonical launcher snippet, the status-read fence is jq-free, and the terminal
arm names all three sentinels and sets the display string. Verified as a
negative control against pre-fix next: 0/5 pass there, 5/5 here.

6ac4d2e6ab fix(#3156): bound the cold-require probe the rebase turned into a violation
Post-rebase validity finding, not a new defect. The base range added
local/no-unbounded-spawn (#3143, 2afe17bb) and then DELETED its allowlist
(#3148, 9faacc0c), so the cold-require probe this PR added in 4bc6b0a2 --
legal when written -- is now an error. Bounded at 30s: a cold require is
sub-second, so that is ~30x headroom and still fails loudly rather than
hanging a lane.

Also routes this round's own teardown through cleanup() instead of raw
fs.rmSync, per local/no-raw-rmsync-in-tests, which carries the Windows-EBUSY
retry budget.

af39f13be2 test(#3156): pin the ambient-HOME leak the scrub set cannot reach
Two halves, and the second is the one that matters.

The contract half asserts installSpawnEnv() and installerEnv() both replace the
ambient HOME, keep USERPROFILE tracking it (os.homedir() reads that one on
Windows), and still let an explicit override win.

The behavioural half drives the REAL installer against a REAL ambient HOME: it
points process.env.HOME at a canary, runs `install.js --cursor --local`, and
asserts the canary gains no .gsd. No assertion about the scrub set can stand in
for this, because writeNonClaudeDefaults() resolves through os.homedir(), which
reads no GSD variable -- a set-membership test would pass with the bug fully
live.

Negative-controlled against the pre-fix tree rather than assumed: reverting
installerEnv() to `{ ...process.env, ...overrides }` fails BOTH halves, the
behavioural one reporting the actual artifact
("the installer wrote GSD's user store into the ambient HOME: defaults.json").

35df0891af fix(#3156): sandbox HOME on raw installer spawns — the one leak no scrub reaches
The strict live-config guard this PR ships went red on CI: the suite creates
$HOME/.gsd/defaults.json. Diagnosed rather than suppressed, because the guard
is right — this is #2665's class arriving through the one door the scrub set is
structurally unable to close.

bin/install.js writeNonClaudeDefaults() (#2834) writes
path.join(os.homedir(), '.gsd', 'defaults.json') for every non-Claude runtime.
os.homedir() consults NO GSD variable, so:

  - no entry in CONFIG_LOCATION_ENV_KEYS can reach it, however the set is
    derived; and
  - blanking GSD_HOME does not reach it either -- a blank GSD_HOME falls back
    to exactly that homedir().

Only a sandboxed HOME contains it, and HOME is deliberately excluded from
TEST_ENV_BASE because blanking it would break far more than it fixed. So the
containment belongs per-spawn, which is the discipline the suite already
applies by hand -- install-minimal-hooks.test.cjs:576 carries a comment
naming this exact hazard for the --codex spawn, while the parameterized
--${runtime} spawn 130 lines below it does not. Instance fixed, class open.

Rather than add a fifth hand-synced env shape to a PR whose subject is that
hand-synced copies drift, this adds ONE export -- installSpawnEnv() in
tests/helpers.cjs -- and routes every raw installer spawn through it, including
the shared tests/helpers/install-shared.cjs installerEnv(), which every install
suite already consumes. Callers passing an explicit { HOME, USERPROFILE } are
unaffected: overrides spread last.

Census (measured, not reasoned): of the 119 test files that spawn bin/install.js,
exactly four wrote into a sandboxed $HOME before this commit -- install,
copilot-install, install-minimal-hooks, opencode-plugin-adapter -- and zero do
after. Only install.test.cjs sits in CI's targeted lane, which is why ubuntu
went red on one file while the macOS full lanes went red on four.

Attribution: the leak reproduces unchanged at upstream/next itself, so the
defect is base-owned and pre-existing; only the detector is new. The guard
found a real leak on next within one run.

No new failures: the surviving names under a sandboxed HOME
(folded:enh-2380-sync-skills, getGlobalConfigDir (Copilot)) fail at base too,
and base additionally fails folded:bug-3288-model-catalog-install-path, which
this tree does not.

fae0c6ae1a fix(#2665): stop watching shared ground, and derive the artifact prefix too
The previous commit widened the guard's watch set and claimed the enumeration
was complete. Re-running the pre-push adversarial gate on that commit -- which I
should have done before pushing it, and did not -- refuted the claim on four
counts. All four were real.

1. FALSE POSITIVES, which is the worse polarity. `hooks/lib`,
   `hooks/package.json`, `scripts/lib` and `scripts/changeset` were watched
   WHOLESALE. The installer preserves foreign files in every one of them -- it
   removes the CommonJS marker only on an exact content match, because "a
   user-authored package.json is never deleted" -- so a user editing their own
   helper mid-suite tripped the guard. A driven probe produced four violations
   from touching only user-owned files. Watching shared ground is exactly what
   the module's SCOPE note refuses: a guard that cries wolf gets switched off,
   and then catches nothing at all. Now only exact GSD filenames inside those
   dirs are watched, and a test asserts foreign edits stay silent.

2. THE PREFIX WAS HARDCODED, which is this PR's own defect one level down. Each
   artifactLayout declares its OWN prefix, and kimi's `kimi-agents` layout
   declares `gsd` with no hyphen, writing `agents/gsd.yaml` and `agents/gsd.md`.
   A fixed `gsd-` scan is structurally blind to both, as it is to pi's
   `extensions/gsd.js`. The prefix is now derived per parent, as a SET -- the
   same destSubpath carries different prefixes across runtimes (`agents` appears
   with both `gsd` and `gsd-`). `extensions` joins the non-registry parents; pi
   declares no artifactLayout at all, so no registry walk could find it.

3. THE ENTRY BOUND FAILED OPEN on a non-finite limit: `Math.max(0, NaN)` is NaN,
   and every budget comparison against NaN is false, so the walk was unbounded --
   the single thing the constant exists to prevent. Clamped with Number.isFinite.
   The walk also kept invoking itself for every remaining sibling after the
   budget was gone; it now returns.

4. THE RESIDUAL LIST WAS WRONG AGAIN. `agents/subagents/**` (kimi stages under an
   unprefixed intermediate dir), the loose capability generators, and the
   `extensions`/`plugins` CommonJS markers are all unwatched and were unnamed.
   They are named now, and the four shared dirs are recorded as DELIBERATELY not
   watched -- a different thing from missed.

Each fix is negative-controlled and each control fires. The NaN control did not
fire on its first form: the test asserted `truncated: false`, which the broken
code also produces on a small tree, so it discriminated nothing. Repaired with a
NaN perTarget against a small finite ceiling, where the two behaviours differ.

766480967e fix(#2665): derive the guard's artifact targets, and close the fallback hole in the extras
A pre-push adversarial review refuted this round's own completeness claim, and it
was right on all three counts. Fixes, in the order they matter:

1. The watch enumeration was still a hand-list, and it was measurably incomplete.
   It missed kilo's SINGULAR `command/`, hermes' `skills/gsd` (a whole directory
   whose name carries no `gsd-` prefix, so no prefix rule could ever reach it),
   `plugins/gsd-core.js`, and the unprefixed subtrees the installer fills --
   `hooks/lib`, `hooks/package.json`, `scripts/lib`, `scripts/changeset`.
   The parents are now DERIVED from the capability registry's own
   artifactLayout.global destSubpath values, exactly as TEST_ENV_BASE derives its
   keys, plus a named list for the non-registry paths the installer writes
   directly. A capability declaring a new destination now extends the watch set
   in the commit that declares it. Scope note: only `global` is walked --
   `workflows` is declared LOCAL-only (windsurf) and is not a config-root parent.

2. resolveExtraWatchTargets carried the identical ambient-only defect that
   Blocker 3 closed one function over: it resolved $GSD_HOME/.gsd and each kimi
   descriptor from the ambient env alone, so a child that BLANKED those vars
   wrote to the HOME-derived fallback while the guard watched the override. Both
   legs are now unioned, matching resolveLiveConfigRoots.

3. The order-independence claim for the scan budget was too strong. It holds
   BELOW the global ceiling; once MAX_TOTAL_ENTRIES is exhausted, which targets
   get curtailed still depends on iteration order -- inherent to any shared
   aggregate bound. The residual is now named in the docblock and the test title
   says which regime it pins, instead of asserting the general claim. Negative
   limits are clamped at 0 so an injected value cannot masquerade as a scan bound.

The module's KNOWN GAP now names its remaining residuals (the loose generator
scripts, the kimi native-root hook bundle) rather than implying completeness --
an unqualified claim here just invites the same refutation next round. Both
under-watch, which fails quiet.

Reverting the derivation fails two tests; reverting the fallback leg fails a
third.

104fc76f70 fix(#2665): watch the hook bundle and the install markers the census found
Self-found by re-deriving the guard-shape census against bin/install.js's own
write sites, not by a review finding. Three artifacts a global install writes
into a live config ROOT were watched by nothing:

  hooks/gsd-check-update.js, hooks/gsd-context-monitor.js,
  hooks/gsd-update-banner.js   -- `hooks` was absent from GSD_PREFIXED_PARENTS
  .gsd-source, .gsd-profile    -- absent from GSD_OWNED_ENTRIES, and an
                                  exact-name list does not match a dot-prefixed
                                  name via the `gsd-` prefix rule

This is the SAME shape as the leak that motivated the prefixed-parent scan in
round 1 -- a gsd-prefixed child under a parent nobody had listed -- one parent
over. That it recurred is the argument for re-deriving this list from the
installer each round instead of trusting it: the enumeration is the weak point
of an enumerate-and-block mechanism, and it does not announce when it falls
behind.

Ownership is unchanged, only coverage: `hooks/` is shared with the host agent,
so only `gsd-`-prefixed children are watched. A test asserts a host-owned
hook is still ignored, because widening the parent list must not widen
ownership -- a guard that flags the host's own files gets switched off, and
then catches nothing at all.

Reverting the widening fails the new test.

e31f706ceb docs(#2665): document the two live-config-guard env vars
The changeset for this PR is typed `Added`, and CONTRIBUTING requires a docs/
change for that type. The only docs/ file in the diff was CONTEXT-INDEX.json --
a GENERATED index -- so the Docs Required gate passed while no human-readable
documentation existed for either new variable. A gate satisfied by a generated
artifact is satisfied vacuously.

docs/TESTING-SUITES.md now carries a section on the guard: what it watches and
why it is ownership-scoped rather than whole-root, the two env vars in a table,
why the default is report-only and what the promotion condition is, and what
each violation label means (including that UNVERIFIED is not clean).

GSD_SKIP_LIVE_CONFIG_GUARD is named explicitly because it is a bypass on a
safety check. An undocumented bypass is one people eventually set without
knowing what they turned off.

A test asserts both variables appear in that doc -- checked as permitted by
local/no-source-grep before writing it, rather than assumed forbidden. It fails
when the section is removed, so the doc cannot rot back to the state the review
found.

f0ef9063d5 test(#2665): restore the three agent-skills tests this PR deleted
Commit 2bed9fd8 ("replace the hand-synced TEST_ENV_BASE copies with the
canonical import") also removed markLocalGsdInstall and three behavioural tests
from tests/agent-skills.test.cjs -- 79 lines, no replacement, and no mention in
the commit message or the PR body:

  - unconfigured Codex reads its local companion agent from a descendant cwd
  - workstream runtime selects the local Codex companion when root config differs
  - unconfigured Claude remains empty when a local Codex companion exists

RULESET.TESTS.delete-bad-tests permits deleting a bad test only when it is
replaced with compliant tests in the same PR. Nothing was replaced, and these
were not bad tests -- they were collateral in a mechanical edit. A silent net
loss of behavioural coverage inside a PR whose subject is test hygiene is the
one thing that should not pass here, and the reviewer was right to block on it.

Restored verbatim. They need no adaptation to the canonical TEST_ENV_BASE
import: they pass their env explicitly, and an explicit env still spreads last
over the base. The file goes 80 -> 83 tests, all green.

Non-vacuity checked rather than assumed: dropping the local-install marker the
first two depend on fails both. The third is a negative assertion and correctly
stays green, which is why it is named here rather than counted as covered.

e4f79c32b0 fix(#2665): wire the fourth suite lane, and derive the lane list instead of naming it
qa-loop-walk runs `npm run test:qa`, which is `run-tests.cjs --suite qa` -- so it
runs the live-config guard like every other suite lane, and it set no
GSD_STRICT_LIVE_CONFIG_GUARD. A leak of exactly the class this PR closes would
have printed a warning there and left the lane green.

The test that is supposed to prove the guard is wired everywhere could not
detect that, because its job list was three literals (`test`, `test-full`,
`test-inert`). A hand-list certifying its own completeness is the defect this
whole PR is about, reproduced inside the test guarding the fix -- so the list is
now DERIVED from the workflow: every job with a step reaching run-tests.cjs,
directly or through an npm script resolved transitively through package.json.
The indirection is the load-bearing half; a grep for the filename alone is what
made qa-loop-walk invisible.

The derivation asserts a floor (>= 4 jobs) before ruling on any of them, so a
selector that silently matched nothing fails loudly instead of passing
vacuously. Windows lanes keep their carve-out, keyed on whether the job's matrix
mentions windows rather than on the job's name.

Negative-controlled: un-wiring qa-loop-walk fails the new test. The literal
version passed with that lane unwired, which is how it shipped.

4bc6b0a2a3 fix(#2665): defer the built-lib require so an unbuilt tree fails one test, not all
tests/helpers.cjs required gsd-core/bin/lib at module scope to derive the
config-location scrub set. That lib is BUILT, so on an unbuilt tree the require
threw inside `require('./helpers.cjs')` -- before a single test() had registered
-- turning one missing `npm run build:lib` into a whole-suite crash with no
message naming the remedy. This is the file ~370 test files import, so the blast
radius is the suite. `npm test` builds via its pretest hook; the shape that
reaches this is a direct `node --test` invocation, which is exactly what a
contributor reaches for when running one file.

The require is now memoized behind builtLib(), and the two derived exports
(TEST_ENV_BASE, CONFIG_LOCATION_ENV_KEYS) are enumerable lazy getters, so
destructuring and Object.keys() behave as before. Reading either is what forces
the build; a test file that needs neither now imports cleanly. When the build IS
missing, the error names `npm run build:lib` instead of surfacing a bare
MODULE_NOT_FOUND.

Verified by a cold-child probe rather than by inspection -- this process has
already loaded everything, so an in-process assertion would pass vacuously. The
probe checks require.cache before and after touching TEST_ENV_BASE, and fails
when the require is moved back to module scope.

4eb29b9741 test(#2665): pin the MAX_DEPTH boundary on both sides, not just above it
RULESET.TESTS.boundary-coverage asks for {limit-1, limit, limit+1}. The depth
bound was exercised only at limit+2, which pins neither side of the edge: an
off-by-one that truncated a tree sitting exactly AT MAX_DEPTH would have passed,
and a truncation is not a cosmetic miss here -- it reports `unverified`, which
in strict mode fails the run.

Negative-controlled by weakening the guard to `depth >= MAX_DEPTH`: the new
limit case fails, where the previous single limit+2 assertion did not.

f054c85fb0 fix(#2665): budget the scan per target, so order stops deciding the verdict
MAX_ENTRIES was a single running budget threaded across every watch target. One
large early target exhausted it, and every target scanned afterwards reported
truncated -> `unverified` -- which under GSD_STRICT_LIVE_CONFIG_GUARD=1 is a
failed run. The guard's verdict therefore depended on directory iteration order
and on unrelated local state, neither of which says anything about whether the
suite leaked.

Each target now draws a fresh allotment, so a pathological tree truncates itself
and nothing else. MAX_TOTAL_ENTRIES keeps the aggregate bounded -- which is what
the single budget was actually for -- and when that ceiling engages, the targets
it curtails are still reported `unverified` rather than attested clean.

The limits are injectable so the boundary is testable without materialising
20000 entries, matching the `deps` seam the resolvers already use.

Two of the three new tests fail when the shared budget is restored; the third
asserts the retained global ceiling, which is deliberately unchanged behaviour.

e82a15a852 fix(#2665): watch the fallback root a scrubbing child actually resolves to
resolveLiveConfigRoots resolves what THIS process sees, and getGlobalConfigDir
is env-first -- so with an ambient CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR the guard watched that
path. A spawned child does not see it: TEST_ENV_BASE blanks the config-location
vars precisely so the child cannot follow them, and a blanked var is falsy, so
the child resolves its HOME-derived root instead.

A child that blanks the var and does NOT also sandbox HOME therefore writes into
the developer's real ~/.claude, which the guard was not watching. That is this
PR's own escape route, taken one process deeper -- and the guard is the artifact
that is supposed to make it loud.

Both resolutions are now unioned: the ambient one, and the fallback one obtained
by handing the REAL descriptor resolver an EMPTY env. Deriving it that way is
deliberate -- a hand-listed copy of the scrub set inside the guard is a second
list to drift, which is the defect this PR spent three rounds closing one layer
up. grok resolves through a hardcoded branch rather than a descriptor, so its
fallback is stated explicitly for the same reason it is named in the ambient
loop.

6a1fbf96fd fix(#2665): let the guard see deletions, in both shapes it can take
diffLiveConfig walked `after` alone, so it had no branch for a path that
existed before the run and does not after. A test run that DELETES a file from
the developer's real config dir passed the guard silently -- the least
recoverable case in the threat model this guard exists to cover.

The review named the missing `pre.exists && !post.exists` branch. That branch is
necessary and not sufficient: deletion arrives in two shapes and it reaches only
one of them.

  - A FIXED owned entry (GSD_OWNED_ENTRIES x roots, plus every extra target) is
    recorded at both ends whether it exists or not, so a deletion reads
    {exists:true} -> {exists:false}. This is the shape the named branch fixes.
  - A gsd-prefixed child is DISCOVERED by readdirSync, so a deleted one is
    absent from `after` entirely and never enters an after-keyed loop at all.
    The named branch is unreachable for it.

So the walk is now over the UNION of both key sets, with the explicit branch for
the first shape and an `!post` branch for the second. Both are covered by a
test, and reverting the fix fails both -- the prefixed-child test is the one
that would still fail with only the prescribed branch in place.

ecea537194 docs(#2665): the guard watches config.toml but GSD also writes <root>/hooks/ there
Found pre-push by this round's third adversarial review pass. Not a rebase
regression — round 3 shipped it and #2755 doubled it.

resolveExtraWatchTargets watches one config.toml per non-registry descriptor,
and its comment asserted "GSD writes ONE named file into these third-party
roots". That is false: bin/install.js also calls installSharedHooksBundle on the
same root, populating <root>/hooks/ with GSD's hook scripts and a CommonJS
marker. So a suite-produced leak of a hook bundle into a developer's real
~/.kimi or ~/.kimi-code passes this guard silently — #2665's own hazard, in
#2665's own safety net.

Behaviour is deliberately unchanged and the gap is disclosed instead. Closing it
is a layout decision rather than one more path, for the same reason
getGlobalSkillsBase is already a deliberate non-target: the snapshot applies the
config-root layout beneath every root it is given, and these roots are not ours.
Happy to fix it here or take it as a separate issue — the maintainer's call.

The enumeration-relative test could not have caught this: it asserts one target
PER DESCRIPTOR and nothing about whether one per descriptor is enough, because
its expectation is derived from the same array it checks. That is exactly the
scope boundary round-2 Nit 7 asked to be marked, biting one layer up from where
it was marked; the test now says so.

479979c4's message says "there are three" — that is three WATCHED targets, not a
count of write surfaces. The hooks bundle is a fourth, and unwatched.

12cfd27f53 docs(#2665): the guard's own comments still described one kimi home, not two
Same drift as the CONTEXT.md seams, one layer over: #2755 took
NON_REGISTRY_CONFIG_HOME_DESCRIPTORS from one entry to two, and five comments
across three files were left describing the one-entry world — "two live write
surfaces", "today's only entry", "today's single entry", and a <kimi>/config.toml
bullet naming only Kimi CLI's KIMI_SHARE_DIR.

The sharpest one was a wrong pointer rather than a stale count: run-tests.cjs
cited "scripts/lib/live-config-guard.cjs" for why the scope is narrow. That path
does not exist, and it names the one directory this module is deliberately NOT
in — the installer copies scripts/lib/ to users wholesale while uninstall removes
only an allowlist, which is the whole reason the guard lives one level up. A
reader following that pointer would have concluded the opposite of the decision.

664bab3b48 docs(#2665): the scrub-set and guard-target seams understated their own mechanism
Both predicates were written in round 3 and not updated when round 4 widened
what they describe, so the catalog that exists to stop a future omission had
two of its own.

CONFIG.LOCATION.SEAM.scrub-set said "four sources" and listed four. There are
five rungs: the two descriptor rungs each additionally walk skillsHome.env (the
maintainer's round-4 Minor 3), and the fifth is WRITE_ESCAPE_PERMISSION_ENV_KEYS,
which is a permission rather than a location and so is reachable by no other rung.

LIVE-CONFIG.GUARD.SEAM.non-root-targets said "the two live write surfaces" and
named a single config.toml via resolveKimiHooksTomlDir. Since #2755 landed
KIMI_CODE_HOOKS_TOML_DESCRIPTOR there are three, and the guard derives them by
iterating NON_REGISTRY_CONFIG_HOME_DESCRIPTORS rather than calling a named
resolver. Both bounds are stated rather than left open: skills bases are a
deliberate non-target (the config-root layout misfires beneath them), and a
further descriptor is only free if it owns the same NON_REGISTRY_OWNED_FILE —
the residual the guard already names at its own definition.

LIVE-CONFIG.GUARD.SEAM.scope's "gsd--prefixed" read as a two-hyphen prefix; the
selector is startsWith(GSD_ARTIFACT_PREFIX) where that constant is 'gsd-'.

CONFIG.LOCATION.SEAM.kimi-two-homes was checked and is NOT stale: #2755 made
Kimi Code a separate runtime, so Kimi CLI still declares exactly two.

Both CONTEXT-INDEX mirrors regenerated; predicate ids unchanged (425), only
their descriptions move.

c95b817cb6 fix(#2665): scrub GSD_ALLOW_SYMLINKED_DEST — a write-escape permission
Found by the pre-publication claim audit of this round's response comment,
which refuted the sentence "none of the unscrubbed env reads names a write
destination" on the grounds that naming a path is not the same property as
influencing where writes land.

GSD_ALLOW_SYMLINKED_DEST is boolean and names no path, so every rung of the
derivation is structurally incapable of reaching it: not a registry configHome,
not descriptor-shaped, not one of GSD's own location vars. It is still a #2665
leak vector. install-engine.cts reads it env-first (:214) and threads it as
allowOptInFollow into the symlink-escape guard at four call sites, each gating
a write (:361/:367, :416/:424, :785/:790, :927/:932). That guard is what stops
a write leaving the install root, so an ambient =1 disarms it for the whole
suite — the #2665 hazard arriving through a permission rather than a path.

Added as its own named family (WRITE_ESCAPE_PERMISSION_ENV_KEYS) rather than
folded into a location rung, for the same reason GSD_HOME got its own family in
round 3: the list should not misdescribe what its members are.

Blanking is fail-safe in the only direction that matters — '' is neither '1'
nor 'true', so a blanked value makes the guard stricter, never looser. That
asymmetry is what licenses scrubbing it wholesale rather than reasoning about
each call site.

The guard test names the variable literally rather than iterating the family
constant: a test that asserts over the constant shrinks its own expectation
when the family is emptied, which is the enumeration-relative failure that let
the kimi-code descriptor go unwatched earlier in this same round.

#2393's opt-in suite is unaffected (99/100, 0 fail): it sets process.env
directly in-process and never routes through scrubConfigLocationEnv, and an
explicit env argument still wins over TEST_ENV_BASE in childEnv.

2a98b6b0b1 fix(#2665): keep the dot-home type guarantee #2755 chose
The rebase resolution annotated both hoisted descriptors and the local in
resolveKimiHooksTomlDir as ConfigHomeDescriptor. #2755 used DotHomeDescriptor
there deliberately: the union permits xdg / dot-home-nested / generic-agents-root
shapes, so the broader annotation drops the compile-time guarantee that this
resolver selects a dot-home descriptor and nothing else.

Runtime behaviour was already correct — all eleven paths resolve identically —
so this restores a type-level property, not a behavioural one. Both exported
constants are now pinned to DotHomeDescriptor as well, which is stricter than
the ConfigHomeDescriptor they carried since round 3; the interface stays
unexported and NON_REGISTRY_CONFIG_HOME_DESCRIPTORS keeps its
ConfigHomeDescriptor[] type, which the narrower constants satisfy as subtypes.

Found by the pre-push adversarial review of this round, which is the one claim
of six it refuted.

d1c8b32689 fix(#2665): watch kimi-code's config.toml, and pin it by name
The rebase onto next brought in #2755, which added a SECOND Kimi config
home — kimi-code's `~/.kimi-code`, overridden by KIMI_CODE_HOME — declared
as an inline object literal inside resolveKimiHooksTomlDir's body. That is
the resolvable-but-not-enumerable shape round 3 hoisted KIMI_SHARE_DIR out
of, so the hoist is extended to cover both descriptors rather than reverting
#2755's parameterization.

The scrub set was already complete: KIMI_CODE_HOME is declared in
capabilities/kimi-code/capability.json, so the registry rung covered it and
CONFIG_LOCATION_ENV_KEYS is 28 keys both before and after the rebase. What
was NOT covered is the guard — resolveExtraWatchTargets iterates
NON_REGISTRY_CONFIG_HOME_DESCRIPTORS, so with only one entry it watched Kimi
CLI's config.toml and never Kimi Code's. Targets go 2 -> 3.

The existing 'extra targets are DERIVED from the descriptor array' test
cannot catch this: it builds its expectation FROM the array, so removing an
entry shrinks the expectation with it. Verified — with the kimi-code
descriptor removed that test still passes while the new named test fails.
This is the enumeration-relative scope boundary the suite already documents
one layer down, biting one layer up.

Also rewrites NON_REGISTRY_OWNED_FILE's docblock, which asserted "today's
only such descriptor is kimi's ~/.kimi". There are now two, and its named
residual is load-bearing rather than vacuous.

652b99b71b test(#2665): reversion guards for all three round-4 fixes
None of the round-4 fixes had a test that fails on reversion: re-shipping
the test-instrumentation chain passes #2858 (everything ships, so every
require resolves), dropping the strict env from test.yml demotes the guard
to report-only with nothing red, and the skillsHome derivation tests are
enumeration-relative over declarations that are all empty today. One
guard each, every one negative-controlled against its reverted fix (fails
pre-fix, passes post-fix):

- packaging-shipped-scripts-require-only-shipped.test.cjs asserts the four
  chain files are absent from the npm pack file list (reuses the tarball
  set the #2858 gate already resolves — no second npm pack).
- live-config-guard.test.cjs asserts all three test jobs wire
  GSD_STRICT_LIVE_CONFIG_GUARD, matching the WHOLE expression anchored —
  a prefix match accepted both a Windows-silently-strict tail and a
  malformed one.
- helpers-process-isolation.test.cjs cold-requires helpers.cjs in a child
  with sentinel skillsHome env vars injected into both enumerations, so
  the walk itself is under test rather than today's empty declarations.

7b8c36f904 fix(#2665): walk skillsHome.env on both descriptor rungs of the scrub derivation
Review round 4, Minor 3. A configHome descriptor can nest a second,
independently-resolved descriptor (skillsHome -> resolveSkillsBaseFromDescriptor)
carrying its own env array, and the derivation walked configHome.env alone —
the identical walk-one-field gap-shape rounds 2-3 closed for the registry
and the non-registry set. Inert today (only kilo declares skillsHome, with
env: []), closed before it is live rather than after.

The guard's root enumeration deliberately does NOT gain the skills base:
getGlobalSkillsBase returns a skills directory (codex: ~/.agents/skills),
not a config root, and the snapshot applies the config-root layout beneath
every root — adding it false-positives on <skillsBase>/gsd-core while
missing a real <skillsBase>/gsd-help write (found by this round's pre-push
adversarial review). Watching skills bases needs its own layout, like
resolveExtraWatchTargets; a comment in resolveLiveConfigRoots records the
non-action.

New derivation test asserts both skillsHome rungs land in TEST_ENV_BASE,
with an anti-vacuity check that at least one runtime actually declares the
field.

Scoped deliberately: GSD_STRICT_LIVE_CONFIG_GUARD=1 on the Linux/macOS
lanes of all three test jobs; Windows lanes stay report-only because the
guard's first run found pre-existing USERPROFILE leaks there (~190 test
sites sandbox HOME alone) — flipping them strict today reddens next on a
defect class this PR does not carry. Promote once that sweep lands (the

209f2fe983 fix(#2665): exclude the test-instrumentation chain from the npm tarball
Review round 4, Major 1: scripts/live-config-guard.cjs is pure test
instrumentation and was shipping to every npm install. The repo already
carries the exclusion convention (gen-emitted-baseline, qa-smell-ratchet)
in the same files[] array.

Excluding the guard alone would trip the #2858 shipped-requires-only-shipped
gate: run-tests.cjs (shipped) requires it at load time, and
affected-tests-lib.cjs / run-affected-tests.cjs sit on the same chain. The
four files are one closed require chain of test instrumentation, so the
exclusion covers the chain, not one link. The guard's LOCATION header cited
affected-tests-lib.cjs as "the precedent for a non-shipped helper", which
npm pack disproves — rewritten to the tarball-exclusion fact.

706bd2ab4e refactor(#2665): derive the guard's non-root targets from the descriptor array too
Follow-up to 38c9395d, found while fact-checking the round-3 response rather
than by a test.

That commit made TEST_ENV_BASE derive its keys from
NON_REGISTRY_CONFIG_HOME_DESCRIPTORS, but had the guard call
resolveKimiHooksTomlDir directly. Both halves covered kimi, so nothing was
broken — but only one of them would pick up a SECOND descriptor. That is the
same partial-enumeration defect that put KIMI_SHARE_DIR outside the scrub set,
reintroduced one layer over, in the very commit that closed it.

resolveExtraWatchTargets now iterates the array and resolves each descriptor
through resolveConfigHomeFromDescriptor, so the scrub set and the guard derive
from one source and cannot drift apart.

Verified: a synthetic second descriptor is picked up automatically (it was not
before); kimi's target is unchanged on both the default (~/.kimi/config.toml)
and KIMI_SHARE_DIR override paths.

The new test asserts one target per descriptor plus the store root. The COUNT
is the load-bearing half — every per-descriptor assertion passes vacuously
today with a single entry, so only the count fails when the array grows and the
guard does not follow.

NAMED RESIDUAL, documented at NON_REGISTRY_OWNED_FILE: this assumes every
non-registry descriptor is written the same way (config.toml). A descriptor
whose owned file differs needs a per-descriptor mapping. It fails toward
under-watching rather than false positives, so it is called out rather than
left to be discovered.

fb02fa5722 chore(#2665): add the changeset fragment this PR now needs
Caught by CI on the round-3 push, not by review: `changeset-lint` went from
OK_NO_USER_FACING_CHANGES to FAIL_MISSING_FRAGMENT.

Both prior rounds passed that gate because the diff was tests/ + scripts/ only,
and neither is a USER_FACING_PREFIX. Round 3 is the first commit in this PR to
touch src/ — the descriptor hoist in src/runtime-homes.cts — and src/ is on the
list. So the fragment requirement is a direct consequence of the remedy shape,
not something the earlier rounds missed.

src/runtime-homes.cts is the ONLY user-facing file in the whole PR diff
(23 changed files); everything else is tests/, scripts/, CONTEXT.md, the two
generated CONTEXT-INDEX.json artifacts, and examples/.

Typed `Added` rather than `Fixed` because that is what actually reaches a user:
new exported constants on a shipped module. The fix itself (#2665) is test
hermeticity, which changes no shipped behaviour — resolveKimiHooksTomlDir()
resolves identically before and after.

Worth noting the local lint disagreed with CI and was wrong: it diffs
`origin/main...HEAD`, which sweeps in the base's own committed fragments and
returns a false ok_fragment_present. CI diffs `origin/$GITHUB_BASE_REF...HEAD`
(next) and sees only this PR's files, which is the correct question.

434d71b03b docs(#2665): catalog the config-location and live-config-guard seams in CONTEXT.md
Round 2, Minor. "Workspace seams" carried WORKTREE.SEAM.* and
CONFIG.SEAM.loadConfig-context but nothing for this PR's mechanism or its env
vars, so the one machine-readable place a future author would look said nothing
about the class that has now recurred three times.

Ten predicates across two groups:

  CONFIG.LOCATION.SEAM.*  — the scrub set's four derivation sources and the rule
                            that a new var is made ENUMERABLE rather than
                            appended; the two-families distinction (runtime
                            configHomes vs GSD's own GSD_HOME/GSD_AGENTS_DIR)
                            that round 2 turned on; kimi's two config-location
                            vars; and the in-process scrub requirement, since
                            HOME sandboxing alone is the trap that produced
                            Blocker 1 twice.
  LIVE-CONFIG.GUARD.SEAM.* — module + exports + why it is scripts/ and not
                            scripts/lib/; ownership-based scope; the two
                            non-root targets and their asymmetric treatment;
                            the truncation contract; the report-not-fatal
                            severity ratchet; and that CI is structurally blind
                            here, so green CI is not evidence.

Both generated indexes regenerated. docs/CONTEXT-INDEX.json is checked by
lint:generated-sync (`gen-context-index.cjs --check`) LINE-NUMBER-SENSITIVELY,
and the example's own committed index is separately checked by
lint-example-parser-parity.cjs, which the first regen did not satisfy — editing
CONTEXT.md requires both, and only one of them says so in its error text.

Verified: parity lint rc=0, gen-context-index --check rc=0, full
lint:generated-sync rc=0. Regen diff audited — 10 predicates added, 0 removed,
0 values changed; the example index's remaining churn is line-number re-baking,
which is exactly why the parity lint excludes line numbers.
