bf8905fcc9 fix(#4012): a hang never emits the events I was listening for
The init marker settled it. The diagnostic reported "THE REPORTER LOADED BUT
RECORDED NO TEST EVENTS — the events file contains only the reporter's own
reporter:init marker", which refutes the reporter-never-loaded hypothesis and
leaves exactly one explanation.

The runner spawns a child process per test file and surfaces a subtest's
test:start / test:pass / test:fail to the parent's reporter only once the child
REPORTS that test — which happens when it completes. The fixture hangs forever,
so it never completes, so it never reports. I had recorded exactly those three
event types: the precise set that a hang guarantees you will never see. The
feature could not have worked for the case it was built for.

test:enqueue and test:dequeue are emitted by the runner as it queues and begins
each file, independent of anything inside finishing. test:dequeue is what
actually means "in flight", and it is now the primary signal, with test:start
kept as a secondary one. A file is in flight when it has been dequeued and has
no terminal event.

The four branches now describe states that are all real: the events file absent
(reporter never loaded); the init marker alone (the runner dequeued nothing at
all — genuinely surprising now rather than the expected outcome); everything
dequeued and terminated (the files finished and the process hung afterwards, a
handle leak); and one or more dequeued-but-unterminated files, named, which is
the case this whole feature exists to report.

Verified against the exact shape the real hang produces, by executing
analyzeChunkEvents on a synthetic events file: init + enqueue + dequeue with no
terminal event reports hangs.test.cjs as in flight, and appending a test:pass
clears it. Four more unit tests cover the ordering and multi-file cases with no
subprocess, so this logic is now checkable without a runner round-trip — which
matters, because every defect in this feature so far was visible only remotely.

T1 is untouched and should now pass for the right reason.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

444137e63a fix(#4012): make the artifact say whether the reporter ever loaded
Down to 3 remote failures, all one chain. The explicit no-events reporting is
working — the diagnostic now states the events file does not exist, instead of
silently printing the generic message. But it then ASSERTED a cause: "the child
was killed before the reporter wrote even one event (process/spawn startup
stall, not a test hang)". That was a guess dressed as a finding, and the fixture
contradicts it: it starts a real test, so test:start should fire in milliseconds
against a 2000ms budget.

Two hypotheses remained and I could not separate them locally, because the local
test runner is hook-blocked here: either the custom reporter never LOADS in the
child, or it loads and no event reaches it before the SIGKILL.

Rather than guess a third time, the artifact now answers it. The reporter
appends a reporter:init line as its first action, before consuming anything, so
the file's contents discriminate: absent means the reporter never loaded;
init-only means it loaded and saw no test events; init plus events means it
works. The diagnostic has a branch for each and, where the cause is genuinely
unresolved, names both possibilities instead of picking one.

Also passes the reporter as a file:// URL via pathToFileURL. Node documents the
--test-reporter value as an import()-style specifier, and a bare absolute path
is not a portable one — notably on Windows. That is a correctness fix whichever
hypothesis holds, and it is a live candidate for the first. FIXED_OVERHEAD is
derived by reducing over the actual argv strings, so the longer URL is accounted
automatically.

Verified by execution, not assumption: composing the reporter against an EMPTY
event stream writes exactly one line, the init marker. That is the whole point
of the marker, so it is pinned by a test rather than left to inspection.

T1 stays red and untouched.

5504724d7a fix(#4012): the reporter body must return nully, not an iterable
Fourth failure on this feature, and this one was caused by the previous fix's
lint workaround.

  TypeError [ERR_INVALID_RETURN_VALUE]: Expected nully to be returned from the
  "body" function but got an instance of Array.

When stream.compose is given an async FUNCTION as the body, that function must
return nully. The reporter ended with 'return []' under a comment asserting
Node "still requires the exported function to return an iterable" — exactly
backwards, and the direct cause of 41 failures across every run-tests.cjs
invocation.

That return existed only to dodge ESLint's require-yield after the previous
commit converted async function* to async function. A lint workaround became a
runtime crash, and the comment written to justify it stated the opposite of the
contract. Both are now corrected to what the runtime actually does.

Verified by EXECUTION rather than by reading: composing the real reporter
against a fake event stream completes with no error and leaves both handled
events durably on disk, with the ignored event type skipped. The failing form
was reproduced the same way first, so the diagnosis is not inferred from the
stack trace alone.

The new unit test requires the reporter directly and asserts the returned value
is nully — the assertion that would have caught this before it reached the
runner — plus the exact NDJSON written. No subprocess, so this half of the
feature is verifiable without a full runner pass, which matters because every
defect in this feature so far has only been observable remotely.

T1 remains untouched and red.

0abd137ec7 fix(#4012): the events reporter has to survive SIGKILL
The remote run proved the instrumentation did not work. Timing landed —
"chunk 1/1 was killed after 2006ms" — but the in-flight-file naming produced
nothing and fell through to the pre-existing generic message. The feature I
wrote to diagnose a kill was itself destroyed by the kill.

Root cause, confirmed rather than assumed. The reporter yielded strings, which
node pipes into the --test-reporter-destination WriteStream. That stream
BUFFERS. execFileSync's timeout sends SIGKILL, which is uncatchable and gives
nothing a chance to flush, so the events sat in a buffer that died with the
child. The parent's own timer reported correctly because it lives in the
parent — which is exactly why half the feature looked fine.

The reporter now writes each event with fs.appendFileSync, unbuffered and
durable at the moment it happens, to a path passed through
GSD_RUN_TESTS_EVENTS_FILE. Env vars do not count toward the Windows
32,767-char argv ceiling, so moving the path out of argv also REDUCES
FIXED_OVERHEAD; the accounting moved with it rather than being left stale. The
destination is now a fixed devNull sink that stays empty by design.

Silence was the reason this was invisible for a whole run. Failing to read the
events file now says so explicitly, and distinguishes a file that could not be
read at all from one that exists but is empty — the generic fallback firing
quietly is what let a broken feature look like a working one. A write is
unbuffered but not atomic, so a kill can still interleave a partial line; the
reader tolerates exactly one unparsable trailing line and reports the complete
ones before it.

The failing T1 was left red and untouched rather than weakened to pass. Three
new unit tests cover the reader directly, with no subprocess, so the parsing
half is verifiable without a full runner pass: missing file, existing-but-empty
file, and a truncated final line.

Also adds ndjson-reporter.cjs to GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES in bin/install.js —
scripts/lib/ ships, and omitting it meant the file would install everywhere and
orphan on uninstall. That single omission caused 4 of the 7 remote failures.

8497833a15 fix(#4012): a killed chunk now names the file that was hanging
The per-chunk timeout fired correctly but reported almost nothing, so every
diagnosis cost a CI round-trip. run-tests.cjs logged chunk START only — no
timestamp, no duration, no end line — then on a kill printed all ~55 basenames
and asked the operator to work out whether output kept flowing (slow) or
stopped early (hang). It could not name the in-flight file because the child is
spawned with stdio inherit, deliberately, per #3597/#1051.

Three additions.

Per-chunk elapsed timing on every path, not just failures, so drift toward the
cap is visible before it becomes a kill. Every timing number in the
investigation behind this had to be reconstructed by hand from GitHub log
timestamps.

A second, machine-readable reporter running ALONGSIDE the human one, writing
NDJSON to its own file. On a kill that file is read back and the files with a
test:start and no matching completion are named, with the staleness of the last
event, so "stopped 480s ago at X" reads differently from "still emitting at
kill". stdio stays inherit and nothing is piped or tee'd — the maxBuffer and
live-output risks that shaped the original design are untouched.

Ranking of the killed chunk's files by known weight, flagging any absent from
tests/test-timings.json, since an unweighted file is an unknown quantity.

Two details that are correct rather than lucky. Passing --test-reporter at all
replaces node's implicit default, so the human reporter is now named explicitly
and reproduces node's own selection (spec on a TTY, tap otherwise) — visible
output is unchanged. And the destination path's chunk index is zero-padded to a
fixed width because FIXED_OVERHEAD is computed ONCE before chunking; a
variable-length path would have silently mis-accounted the Windows 32,767-char
argv ceiling and reintroduced #3597. The reporter flags are added to
FIXED_OVERHEAD exactly as --test-force-exit is.

The multi-reporter pairing and the stream.compose reporter contract were
confirmed against Node's v24 documentation, not recalled — the first draft
carried them as an unverified assumption and said so.

Also corrects a stale comment claiming the 600s cap sits "below the 20m job
cap". The lane is sharded 3x at timeout-minutes: 45; the windows shards were at
19m when chunk 1/5 was killed on b351c83e0 and c3e667df3. The per-chunk cap is
now the binding constraint, and the old silent-cancel model leads to the wrong
conclusion.

d24e22b156 enhance(#3912): gsd-tools declares outcomes, pinned at v1 (#3983)
* enhance(#3912): gsd-tools declares outcomes, pinned at v1

ADR-3889 §4. Phase 6 already moved error()'s terminator onto the seam, so what
remained was the declaration — and the pin that makes it invisible today.

The census corrected two documented figures before any code changed.
ERROR_REASON has exactly 25 members (the ADR and epic were right; an earlier
note of mine claiming 23 was wrong and is corrected). And output({error}) is
**64 sites across 9 files, not the 60 ADR-2980 ratified** — the module shape
holds but the total drifted +4: frontmatter 7 not 6, phase 4 not 2, roadmap 3
not 2. That matters because this phase's criterion demands the pin be asserted
over the enumerated population rather than sampled; asserting over a stale 60
would leave four sites unpinned while claiming full coverage, which is the
shape of failure this epic exists to remove.

The issue does not state the fact that shapes the design: output() never
touches the exit code. Confirmed by reading it — it writes fd 1 and returns.
So a declared outcome for those 64 sites had nowhere to be READ. The mapping
was never the work; wiring somewhere for the declaration to land was.

The seam already existed twice over. cli-exit.cts holds two globalThis-Symbol
cells, each because the module is emitted to three locations and a module-level
`let` would let instances disagree, and runMain already maps a code returned by
main(). A third cell inherits that solution. output() records DEGRADED for any
{error} payload — key-order agnostic, which is exactly why the "42 sites"
figure undercounts — and runMain projects the cell only when main() returns
nothing, so an explicit return still wins.

error() maps its reason through a table over the closed 25-member enum, leaving
all 278 call sites untouched; 226 of them pass no reason at all. The version
gate lives in error(), NOT in projectOutcome: registered names are
version-invariant there, so mapping a reason straight through would make USAGE
project to 64 under v1 and break the pin on its first line. projectOutcome is
left exactly as Phase 2 shipped it, DEGRADED's 0/80 asymmetry included.

Proven rather than asserted. v1 is byte-identical across three real CLI paths —
config-get plain, config-get --json-errors, and an output({error}) path —
matching exit code and exact bytes against the pre-change build. Under
GSD_EXIT_CONTRACT=v2 the same commands now exit 66 (CONFIG_KEY_NOT_FOUND ->
NO_INPUT) and 80 (DEGRADED), both looked up through the registry. An
anti-vacuity test pins that v1 and v2 genuinely differ for at least one reason,
because without it a mapping where everything projects to 1 under both versions
would satisfy every other assertion and the declaration would be theatre.

A1 iterates all 25 enum members and A3 asserts over the measured 64-site
population, so a 26th reason or a 65th site fails until it is given a mapping —
the drift guard this phase needs, given ADR-2980's own count had drifted +4
unnoticed.

* fix(#3912): the outcome cell must never lower an exit code

The remote run caught a fail-open that this phase introduced, in the phase
whose entire purpose is removing fail-opens.

`state validate --strict` on a missing STATE.md exited **0** where it must exit
1. Mechanism: `runMain` projected the pending outcome whenever `main()` returned
void, and under v1 DEGRADED projects to 0 — so a `process.exitCode` already set
non-zero by the command was clobbered down to success. Confirmed live against a
fixture, before and after.

This refutes a review conclusion recorded earlier in this phase, that the cell
was "fail-closed and can never mask a failure as success". It could, and did.
Recording that plainly so the assumption is not repeated: the cell's danger was
never only that it might add a failure — it was that projecting it
unconditionally overwrites whatever decision came before.

Projection is now guarded: it may set a code only when none is set, and an
already-non-zero exit code always wins. The full precedence — explicit `main()`
return, then an existing non-zero exitCode, then the declared outcome — is
written at the projection site. A regression test drives a void return with a
pre-set non-zero code and a pending DEGRADED, and fails against the pre-fix
build.

The second failure was my test encoding the wrong contract, not a code defect.
It asserted `output({found:false, error: undefined})` records DEGRADED because
the KEY is present. `JSON.stringify` drops undefined, so the payload the user
receives is `{"found":false}` — carrying no error at all, and calling that
degraded would hand back exit 80 under v2 for output that reads as clean. The
discriminator is a serializable error VALUE, not key presence. The test now
pins `{error: undefined}` as explicitly NOT degraded, and the design doc's
wording is tightened to match.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

* docs(#3912): the versioned exit contract, and a flag defect the docs found

Diataxis pass for Phase 8, plus a real fix that only surfaced because writing
the how-to meant running its own examples.

The docs. ADR-2980's "Revisit if" clause asked for exactly the versioned
projection this phase provides, so it gets an amendment naming #3912 /
ADR-3889 section 4 as that boundary: v1 stays 0 byte-for-byte, v2 projects
DEGRADED to 80. The amendment also records the count drift rather than
restating a stale figure — the ADR ratified 60 output({error}) sites in 9
modules; the AST-measured population is 64 across the same 9 (frontmatter 7
not 6, phase 4 not 2, roadmap 3 not 2). The pin is asserted over the
enumerated 64. json-errors.md gains the outcome-declaration reference,
including the precedence order a review pass got wrong and the suite refuted:
an explicit main() return, then an already-set non-zero process.exitCode, then
the declared outcome. Projection may only ever set a code, never lower one.

A how-to is owed here and is written, not skipped. Under v1 nothing changes,
so the audience is an operator opting into v2 and needing to know what the
codes mean for a CI gate — a migration, which is how-to shaped. It covers
turning v2 on, the code table, why 80 is "ran and reported a condition" rather
than a crash, and how to split a gate that treats any non-zero as fatal. No
tutorial: there is no new entry point to learn, and under the default contract
a reader would be walked through observing nothing.

The defect. Running the how-to's own Step 1 example returned

    $ gsd-tools --exit-contract=v2 state validate --strict
    Error: Unknown command: --exit-contract=v2          (exit 64)

while the same flag trailing the subcommand worked and exited 80. The flag
half-worked, by argv position. resolveContractVersion scans argv
non-destructively, so the token survived into the dispatcher, which treats
argv[2] as the command name. --json-errors had already solved precisely this
at gsd-tools.cjs:4455, under a comment naming the hazard verbatim: "The argv
splice must happen here too, otherwise the dispatcher below sees
--json-errors as an unknown command." The later flag never got the same
treatment.

Fixed rather than documented around: the version is resolved first — which
memoizes the cell and makes an invalid value throw early — and then every
--exit-contract= token is spliced out of the dispatcher's argv copy.
--exit-contract is now listed in TOP_LEVEL_USAGE, where it never was. The
regression test pins leading position, trailing position, agreement between
the two, and a loud failure on v3 rather than a silent fall back to v1.

Neither review engine would have caught this: the defect is invisible in the
diff, because the diff does not touch argv handling. It surfaced only from
running the documentation's own example. Writing a how-to is an execution pass.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

Refs #3912

* fix(#3912): the flag splice has to run before the run-with-timeout return

An isolated review of the previous commit found that the fix did not deliver
what it claimed, and that two of its own tests were weak. All three findings
reproduced by execution before any change was made.

The fix was placed below a return. main() intercepts `run-with-timeout` at
gsd-tools.cjs:4436 and returns from there — above both the --json-errors block
and the --exit-contract splice added in the previous commit. So the flag still
died in leading position for that one command:

    $ gsd-tools --exit-contract=v2 run-with-timeout 5 -- node -e "..."
    Error: Unknown command: run-with-timeout        (exit 64, child never ran)

The previous commit message and the test's describe-block both claimed
position-independence unconditionally. That was an overclaim, not a gap left
open, and it is the part worth naming: the fix was verified by hand on the
commands I happened to think of, and `run-with-timeout` returns before the
code I was verifying.

Both global-flag blocks now run above the interception, with a comment naming
it so a later edit cannot slide them back down. Moving --json-errors up fixes
the identical pre-existing bug for that flag, verified failing beforehand
(exit 1, sdk_unknown_command). Fixing the sibling is deliberate: same defect,
same block, and a known-broken twin next to a fixed one is not a resting state.

Two tests were not pulling their weight. The invalid-value test was vacuous —
it passed against the pre-fix build, because `--exit-contract=v3` already
exited 1 there and already printed the resolve error lazily through
error() -> getContractVersion. Both its assertions held before the fix, so it
pinned nothing. The real discriminator is that the pre-fix build emits BOTH
"Unknown command: --exit-contract=v3" and the resolve error, while the fixed
build emits only the latter; the test now asserts that absence.

The leading-position and leading==trailing tests asserted proxies — "not 64",
"no Unknown command", "the two agree" — none of which pin a value, and all of
which would survive both positions being identically broken. With a .planning
directory and no STATE.md, state-snapshot exits exactly 80 under v2 and 0
under v1 in both positions. Those numbers are pinned now. The multi-token case
the descending splice loop exists for is covered too, and run-with-timeout has
regression tests for both flags.

The lesson is narrower than "test more". Hand-verifying the production
behavior does not verify that the test would have caught its absence. The
pre-fix binary has to be run against the test's own assertions.

Investigated and deliberately not changed: splicing before --cwd parsing
degrades one diagnostic from "Missing value for --cwd" to "Invalid --cwd:
<path>", but that is pre-existing — verified on the pre-fix build via
--json-errors, which already did it. This change joins the pattern rather than
creating it, and both forms exit 64 on malformed input either way.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

* chore(#3912): backfill changeset pr numbers to 3983

* test(#3912): pin the reason-table invariant as set equality, not a count

A graph-backed review flagged the unchecked lookup in
expectedErrorCode3912. Investigated by execution: the drift guard DOES
hold — for an unmapped reason under v2 the production error() yields 1
while the table yields undefined, so the assertion fails. Not a
correctness defect, and deliberately NOT made tolerant, since a tolerant
lookup would destroy the guard.

Two real problems remained. The guard asserted the wrong invariant: it
counted the TABLE's keys at 25 rather than checking they match the
ENUM's values, so a renamed member keeps the count at 25 and slips past,
and a 26th member leaves the table at 25 and slips past too. Both were
then caught only indirectly, by an undefined mismatch producing 'must
exit undefined'. It is now a sorted set equality, so the failure names
the specific missing or extra reason.

And the comment above it described a '?? FAIL' fallback that does not
exist anywhere in the function. It now states what the code actually
does, verified by running it rather than by reading it.

2ea5efc151 enhance(#3911): hooks declare their crash policy (#3960)
* enhance(#3911): give hooks an exit seam that needs no build

ADR-3889 Phase 7 foundation. The 19 shipped enforcement hooks hold 91 of the
epic's 128 terminators and cannot reach `terminateNow` today.

The obvious route — requiring `gsd-core/bin/lib/cli-exit.cjs`, as
gsd-agent-isolation-guard.js already does for two other modules — is rejected.
That precedent carries its own warning (#3582): those files are tsc output,
gitignored and absent on a raw plugin-marketplace or git-clone install, so the
hook must first call ensureRuntimeBuild() to self-heal. Making the module a
hook needs IN ORDER TO TERMINATE depend on a build inverts the dependency, and
its failure mode is precisely the fail-open this phase exists to remove: a
guard that cannot terminate cannot deny. `lint-hooks-runtime-build-seam`
already encodes that concern, and Design B would have had to add an
ensureRuntimeBuild() call to all 19 hooks to satisfy it.

So `hooks/lib/` becomes a third emit location for cli-exit and a fifth for the
registry, preserving the invariant `src/cli-exit.cts`'s own header states: it
imports nothing but node:fs and its sibling registry, and the generator
dual-emits that sibling alongside each copy so a relative require resolves next
to whichever copy loaded it. Shipping needed no change — build-hooks.js already
declares HOOKS_SUBDIRS_TO_COPY = ['lib'].

Proven, not asserted: the two files are copied into an otherwise-empty tmpdir
and a child process requires them and terminates — PASS exits 0, HOOK_DENY
exits 2 with the payload on both stdout and stderr. That test fails the moment
the hooks copy gains a require reaching outside hooks/lib/.

Also fixed inline: the registry's fifth target let any `--write` test overwrite
the real committed hooks/lib/exit-code-registry.js, because the test helper
derived only three of the other output paths. It now redirects all five, and a
regression test asserts every committed artifact is byte-identical after a
redirected write.

Install-tree goldens pick up the two new shipped paths across 11 runtimes —
insertions only, no removals. lint:ci was green while they were stale, so this
was found by regenerating rather than by a gate.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

Refs #3911

* enhance(#3911): declare a crash policy, and migrate the write guard

Adds `hooks/lib/hook-exit.js` — the hook-facing vocabulary over `terminateNow`,
hand-written because the cli-exit copy beside it is generated:

  allow(payload)          exit 0
  deny(payload, stderr?)  exit 2
  crash(onCrash, payload) whichever the hook DECLARED

`crash()` takes the policy as a required argument with no default, which is the
whole mechanism: fail-open by accident stops being expressible. A hook must
name ALLOW or DENY at the call site, and an unrecognized value terminates
INTERNAL rather than guessing. Fail-open stays legal; fail-open by omission
does not.

`gsd-write-guard.js` is the first hook migrated, all 12 sites, and it exposed a
gap in the seam. `terminateNow`'s doc comment justified its fd-2 write by
citing this hook's `emitBlock` — but modeled it as sending the same bytes to
both streams, when `emitBlock` actually sends full JSON to stdout and only the
bare `reason` string to stderr, because Kimi's hook bus feeds stderr verbatim
back to the model. Migrating as written would have turned a readable sentence
into a JSON blob for Kimi-backed agents.

#3911 requires both "all 19 hooks terminate through terminateNow" and "no
hook's effective default changes". Those are jointly satisfiable only by
teaching the seam to carry a distinct stderr payload, so `terminateNow` gains
an optional third argument: omitted, behavior is byte-for-byte what it was; a
string is written raw, which is exactly the Kimi case. The doc comment's
inaccurate claim about emitBlock is corrected in place.

Proven rather than asserted: the pre-migration file is reconstructed from HEAD
and driven with the same catastrophic-shrink payload as the migrated one —
exit code, stdout and stderr all byte-identical.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

Refs #3911

* enhance(#3911): all 19 hooks terminate through the seam

Migrates the remaining 18 enforcement hooks onto allow/deny/crash. An AST walk
now reports zero `process.exit(` call sites across every `hooks/*.js` — down
from the 91 the census measured.

Each hook with an outer catch declares its policy once, at module top, with the
reason that policy is right for that specific guard: a read guard that cannot
scan must not block the read; a statusline that renders every prompt must
degrade rather than crash; an injection scanner must not retroactively block a
result already returned. Those sentences are the deliverable — they are what
turns fail-open-by-accident into fail-open-on-purpose. No hook's effective
default changed.

Wiring exposed two defects, both fixed here rather than noted.

A SECOND stdout/stderr-splitting site turned up in `gsd-workflow-guard.js`'s
`emitForceAddBlock`, matching the pattern already known from the write guard —
full JSON to stdout, bare reason to stderr for the Kimi bus. It uses the
`stderrPayload` argument added in the previous commit, which is now carrying
its second real caller rather than one special case.

More seriously, `terminateNow` emitted both streams inside ONE try, so a
payload that failed to serialize aborted before the stderr write ever ran. The
two windsurf guards write nothing to stdout on a block and only a reason string
to stderr, so `deny(undefined, reason)` exited 2 with EMPTY stderr — a deny
that silently loses its reason, which is the exact "fails with success" class
this epic exists to close. The streams are now emitted independently, each with
its own guard, and `undefined` means "nothing to write for this stream" rather
than an error. Regression tests inject a throwing write on one fd and assert
the other still receives its payload; they fail against the single-try version.

Byte-identity was proven per hook, not assumed: each pre-change file is
reconstructed from HEAD and driven side by side with the migrated one across
its normal path, its deny path, malformed stdin and empty stdin — exit code,
stdout and stderr compared.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

* enhance(#3911): harden the three shell hooks, and pin every hook's policy

`gsd-phase-boundary.sh`, `gsd-session-state.sh` and `gsd-validate-commit.sh`
gain `set -euo pipefail`.

The expected hazard did not materialize, and that is worth recording: every
intentionally-non-zero command in all three is already the condition of an
`if`/`elif`, which `set -e` never fires on, and none of them reads a
possibly-unset variable or pipes through a grep that may legitimately match
nothing. No `|| true` guards were needed. Each hook was still checked
command-by-command before the flags went in rather than after.

Twenty-one before/after cases across the three hooks — disabled and enabled,
planning and non-planning, missing STATE.md, malformed JSON, the Kimi payload
shape, quoted and unquoted `-m`, valid and over-long Conventional Commits —
all match on exit code, stdout and stderr.

The hardening is shown to actually fire, not merely added: with a stubbed
`node` that fails at the JSON-emit step, phase-boundary and session-state go
from silently exiting 0 with empty stdout to failing visibly with the error
surfaced. No such case could be constructed for `gsd-validate-commit.sh`,
whose every statement already sits inside an if-condition — recorded as
unproven rather than claimed.

`tests/hooks-crash-policy.test.cjs` adds the per-hook coverage the issue asks
for, table-driven over all 19 hooks rather than 76 hand-written cases: normal
allow, deny where a deny path exists, crash-honors-the-declared-policy, and an
unclosed-stdin case — the one `process.exitCode` structurally cannot serve. The
deny assertions encode each hook's ACTUAL stream split rather than a uniform
shape, since four of the six deliberately differ. A drift guard enumerates
`hooks/*.js` and fails if a terminating hook is ever added without a row.

Writing those tests surfaced two hooks that emit a block decision in their JSON
body and exit 0. Both were checked rather than assumed, and neither is a
fails-with-success: `gsd-read-injection-scanner.js` is PostToolUse, where the
tool has already run and exit 2 has no meaning, and `gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js`
follows Cursor's JSON-body protocol. They are deliberately left alone — a
mechanical sweep to `deny()` would have broken exactly these two.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

* fix(#3838): the commit validator says when it could not validate

#3911 claims to subsume #3838. Measurement said otherwise, so this closes it
for real rather than by assertion.

`set -euo pipefail`, added earlier on this branch, does NOT fix #3838: bash
exempts a command used as an `if` condition from `set -e`, and all three of the
hook's swallow-and-pass sites are exactly that shape. Verified against the
hardened hook with a node shim that fails only the classifier call — a
non-conforming commit still exited 0 with empty stdout AND empty stderr,
indistinguishable from "your commit conforms". That is the defect verbatim.

All three sites named in #3838 now capture the real exit status instead of
consuming it as a condition, and each distinguishes its genuine negative from
"could not run":

- the classifier: 0 = is a git commit, 1 = genuinely not one, anything else =
  could not classify. Its `node -e` now wraps the require and the call in
  try/catch and exits 3 on a throw, so a broken require chain can never be
  mistaken for `isGitSubcommand` legitimately returning false — which is the
  arm that matters, since `token-scanner.cjs` is a gitignored build artifact
  and a fresh checkout lands there.
- the opt-in config read and the JSON command extraction get the same
  treatment.

On "could not run" the hook emits a diagnostic to stderr naming which check
failed and why, then exits 0. The issue confirms this is safe — it is a
PreToolUse hook, so stderr does not disturb the JSON protocol — and ranks it
the smallest sufficient fix. The gate still fails open, but it can no longer do
so silently, which is the whole complaint: a validator that disables itself
quietly costs more than one that is absent, because it is trusted.

Both controls are unchanged and pinned by tests: a conforming commit still
passes silently, a non-conforming one still exits 2 with its existing block
payload. The defect test asserts stderr is non-empty and names the failure; it
fails against the pre-fix hook.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

* docs(#3911): document the hook crash-policy contract

Reference and Explanation via a new docs/features fragment (FEATURES.md is
generated from it), INVENTORY rows for the three new hooks/lib files, and an
ARCHITECTURE note on the hooks section.

How-To: docs/how-to/declare-a-hook-crash-policy.md, indexed from docs/README.md
— a hook author now has to choose and declare a crash policy, which is more
than one step and crosses into which harness protocol their hook speaks. It
covers allow/deny/crash, writing an ON_CRASH reason that is actually useful,
when a deny needs a distinct stderr payload, the two hooks whose harness reads
a JSON-body decision and must NOT use deny(), and what to do when a check
cannot run at all — with #3838 as the worked example.

* test(#3911): prove the seam actually ships, and stop hand-rolling temp cleanup

Two review findings.

The acceptance criterion 'hooks/dist/** stays in parity via the build seam
(lint:hooks-runtime-build-seam)' was misstated and unmet: that lint checks
something else — that a hook requiring a compiled gsd-core/bin/lib module also
calls ensureRuntimeBuild(). Nothing exercised that the three new hooks/lib
files reach hooks/dist/lib at all. That gap is not theoretical: #770 is a
recorded ship-blocking bug where a new hook never shipped because a copy list
missed it. The suite now builds dist through the repo's own ensureBuiltHooks(),
byte-compares each shipped copy against its source, and spawns a child that
requires the SHIPPED dist copy and denies — which is what catches a copy that
exists but cannot resolve its sibling registry.

gsd-validate-commit.sh hand-duplicated mktemp/run/rm three times; one idempotent
trap on EXIT replaces them, guarded so cleanup cannot alter the exit status.
Behavior-neutral across five cases, with temp-file counts taken before and
after each run.

Refs #3911

* fix(#3911): stage transitive hook lib requires, not just one level

The remote run returned 7 failures across 3 real causes.

The important one is a PRODUCTION bug this phase exposed rather than caused.
`writeCursorHooksJson` scanned each hook script for `./lib/X` requires exactly
one level deep and never re-scanned the lib files it staged for their own
sibling requires. Nothing had a transitive lib dependency before, so the gap
was invisible. Adding hook-exit.js -> cli-exit.js -> exit-code-registry.js
made real Cursor installs ship a bundle that dies at require time with
MODULE_NOT_FOUND. It now walks to a fixed point, and a real installed Cursor
hook runs to completion.

The staging harness in shared-hooks-dir-resolution hand-copied its fixture, so
the injection scanner crashed at require time and its exit-1 was being read as
a policy decision. Migrated to copyScriptWithDeps, which walks the require
graph — the repo's recorded rule for this class, since adding another
copyFileSync keeps it alive for the next person.

The missing-lib-source test in cursor-hook-workspace-roots hardcoded which lib
file it expected to be named in the abort message; the same throw now fires for
a different file first. Its assertion is unchanged in substance — staging still
must abort rather than ship a broken hook — only the name is no longer pinned.

The last one was my own test asserting an uppercase reason code. Measured
against origin/next: the pre-change hook emits the same lowercase
'config_unreadable', so the test was wrong, not the migration. Corrected to the
real value rather than making the code match the test.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

* fix(#3911): a git probe that timed out is not a negative

A macOS CI lane failed three deny cases at 2084ms, 2112ms and 2177ms — just
past the 2000ms budget these hooks give their git probes. The three that passed
took 72ms, 595ms and 651ms. Under shard contention `git rev-parse` overruns,
the hook reads the non-zero result as "not a git repo", and allows with exit 0
and empty stdout AND empty stderr. Under load, the guards silently stop
guarding. That is ADR-3889's thesis exactly, sitting inside the security hooks
this phase is about.

The repo had already recognized the class in one place — gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js
fail-closed-denies on `git_timed_out` (#3045) — but nowhere else.

`hooks/lib/git-probe.js` classifies a probe's outcome, distinguishing a real
non-zero exit from ETIMEDOUT, a signal kill, and a spawn failure, rather than
folding all four into `status !== 0`. Three guards route their eight git probes
through it.

The resolution is the same shape #3838 took, and the same one that issue
endorsed as smallest-sufficient: fail open, but loudly. **No exit code changes
on any path** — a developer on a loaded machine is still not blocked, which
keeps #3911's declaration-pass contract intact for exit codes. What changes is
that the hook now says on stderr which probe could not answer, instead of
presenting silence as a clean verdict.

Scope was checked across every hooks/*.js, not just the three that failed:
gsd-agent-isolation-guard spawns no git; gsd-statusline's two probes gate only
a cosmetic display segment, not an allow/deny decision, and are left alone.

The C2 deny assertion was a real-race test — it demanded exit 2 while a slow
git legitimately yields 0. It now requires the hook to either deny, or allow
with a diagnostic naming the probe that could not run; a silent allow still
fails, so the assertion is not vacuous. A deterministic regression stubs git on
PATH to sleep past the budget rather than waiting for load to reproduce it.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

Refs #3911

* test(#3911): a PATH shim cannot intercept the hooks' git spawn on Windows

The deterministic timeout regression stubbed git on PATH and asserted the
guard reports rather than silently allows. It passes on Linux and macOS and
failed on Windows in 83ms and 176ms — the stub was never invoked at all.

Mechanism: the hooks call spawnSync('git', args) with no shell:true, so on
Windows CreateProcess resolves git.exe only and never a PATH .cmd shim. The
git.cmd branch could not have worked and is removed rather than left implying
a Windows path that does. Adding shell:true to the hooks to serve a test would
change product behavior and widen an injection surface, so the case is skipped
on win32 only, with the mechanism written into the skip reason so a future
reader does not 'fix' it that way.

Linux and macOS keep the coverage, and macOS is where the underlying fail-open
was actually caught.

941b62249e enhance(#3906): two terminators over one registry, with a versioned exit projection (#3924)
* feat(#3906): two terminators over one registry, with a versioned projection

Adds terminateNow (write-then-terminate, for callers that cannot wait for the event loop) beside runMain (drain-then-exit), both projecting through one shared function so they cannot disagree - the parity the ADR makes mandatory. A failed write does not change the exit code: letting it propagate would fail a hook open, which is what the fail-closed branches exist to prevent.

The projection is versioned. v1 reproduces today's integers, including keeping a payload-carried degraded result at exit 0 - ADR-2980 ratified that across 60 sites and declined normalizing it on measured blast radius. v2 applies the registry. --exit-contract=v2 or GSD_EXIT_CONTRACT=v2 selects it; an unrecognized version throws rather than silently defaulting.

The registry is now emitted beside both copies of the exit module, so it resolves as a sibling in the built tree and in the committed scripts/ copy that must load on an unbuilt clone.

* fix(#3906): actually restrict code 2 to terminateNow, and generate the registry's type

The claim that terminateNow is the only place 2 can be produced was false: runMain's outcome arm applied no guard, so runMain(()=>'HOOK_DENY') set exitCode 2 through the drain path - and the parity matrix demonstrated it while calling it parity. runMain now refuses any outcome projecting to the hook-protocol code, gated on the code rather than the name so an alias cannot slip past, and the matrix asserts the restriction instead of contradicting it.

The ambient type for the generated registry was hand-written with no gate against the generator's actual output - the declared-surface-diverges-from-runtime defect class this epic exists to close, reintroduced inside it. It is now a third generated artifact covered by the same --check. Also converts every test-body try/finally to t.after().

* test(#3906): derive the glossary fixture's dependencies instead of hand-listing them

Adding a require to scripts/lib/cli-exit.cjs broke 31 tests in one suite that built its fixture from a hand-written dependency list, so the new sibling was absent and the copied script could not load. copyScriptWithDeps walks the require graph and exists for exactly this class - #3412 paid the same bill when one new require broke 82 tests across two suites. Migrating rather than adding another copyFileSync line keeps the class closed. The other nine suites referencing that path were triaged; none copies-and-spawns, so none needed migrating.

* fix(#3906): enumerate the new shipped file, drop a vendor name from shipped data, and fix three test defects

install: scripts/lib/exit-code-registry.cjs was missing from GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES, so it shipped to every install and orphaned on uninstall.

The registry gave HOOK_DENY a meaning naming one harness, and that string ships into every runtime's tree - a guard correctly caught it leaking into the hermes and qwen installs. The registry is runtime-neutral infrastructure; the vendor name belongs in the ADR, not in shipped data.

Two more fixture harnesses built their trees from hand-listed dependencies and broke on the new require; both migrated to the derived helper, and all 23 copy-and-spawn candidates were enumerated so the class is closed rather than patched. One generator test used a fixture code that collided with a real allocation, so the generator correctly reported a duplicate where the test expected drift. The large-payload test embedded a 256KB literal in the child's argv, exceeding Linux's 128KiB MAX_ARG_STRLEN so the child never started - it now builds the payload inside the child.

* chore(#3906): backfill changeset pr number

* docs(#3906): document the exit-code contract selector

P2 is the first phase of this epic with a user-invocable surface, so the flag and env var owe a reference entry. Records what actually differs between v1 and v2 today (one outcome), that an unrecognized value is rejected rather than silently defaulted, and the fail-safe property that makes switching safe.

8edace40d5 enhance(#3904): one exit module — generate the scripts-side copy from a single source (#3917)
* test(#3904): failing-first coverage for the drifted scripts-side exit module

The scripts/ copy of the CLI exit seam has no json-error arm, so an unexpected throw prints a raw stack where the documented contract promises {ok:false,reason,message}. Adds the consumer-altitude reproduction plus the negative space it must not swallow, the one-cell assertions for json-error mode, and the standalone-load constraint. RED until the generator lands.

* enhance(#3904): generate the scripts-side exit module from one source

src/cli-exit.cts becomes the single source of truth and scripts/lib/cli-exit.cjs a generated artifact of its compiled output, byte-compared by a --check entry in lint:generated-sync. The two had drifted: only the .cts copy emitted the documented {ok:false,reason,message} envelope on an unexpected throw, so a scripts-side tool printed a raw stack where docs/json-errors.md promises structured output.

The generated file is committed and must load on an unbuilt clone (64+ consumers, incl. check-env.cjs), and gsd-core/bin/lib/cli-exit.cjs is gitignored tsc output that doubles as the build sentinel, so it cannot be required from there. The exit module therefore drops its io.cjs import: the json-error-mode accessors move into it and io.cts re-exports them, leaving its export surface unchanged. The flag lives in a Symbol-keyed cell on globalThis because one source emitted to two locations means two module instances, and a module-level flag would give them two independent values.

* chore(#3904): changeset for the generated scripts-side exit module

* docs(#3904): name which surfaces honor the json-error envelope contract

docs/json-errors.md described the structured envelope as what runMain does without saying which copies of runMain actually had the branch — a claim that was silently false for every scripts/-side tool. Also drops a redundant source-grep test whose marker grew the unverified allow-test-rule pool past its ceiling; the behavioral test beside it proves the same property through real module resolution.

* test(#3904): compare exit verdicts, not stderr bytes, across the two copies

The parity test asserted byte-identical stderr, which the plain-text path cannot satisfy: the generated copy carries an 11-line banner, so its stack frames report line numbers offset by exactly that much, and the path normalizer stopped at the colon. Byte-identical stack traces were never the contract - two files at two paths necessarily differ there. Now compares the parsed envelope under json mode, the first line and exit code on the stack path, and exact output for ExitError.

4b69dc346b fix(#2725): repoint the pre-commit alias guard at sources git can actually stage, drop nine dead ones (#3273)
* test(#2725): failing-first coverage for the inert pre-commit alias guard

Replaces two stale tests that asserted on `sdk/src/query/command-manifest.phase.ts`
— a path retired with the SDK boundary (ADR-0174), so both passed forever while
guarding nothing.

The new matrix drives .githooks/pre-commit through its GIT_OVERRIDE/NPM_OVERRIDE
seams and asserts on the real tracked sources the drift checker reads. Red until
the guard is repointed off the gitignored build outputs it currently watches.

* fix(#2725): repoint the pre-commit alias guard at sources git can actually stage

`.githooks/pre-commit` carried ten staged-path guards and not one of them could
do its job.

Nine anchored on `^sdk/…`, a tree retired by ADR-0174, and invoked npm scripts
that no longer exist (`check:state-document-fresh` and eight siblings). Their
only reachable behavior was to abort the commit with `Missing script` — which
required matching a path that cannot exist, so they were dead twice over.

The tenth was the real defect. Its npm target does exist, but it matched
`^gsd-core/bin/lib/command-aliases\.cjs$` — a gitignored build output
(.gitignore:172). An ignored path never appears in `git diff --cached
--name-only`, so the guard was not stale, it was structurally unmatchable: it
watched the derived layer instead of the source layer, from the day it was
written.

Repointed at the nine tracked `src/*.cts` sources `scripts/check-alias-drift.cjs`
actually reads. The family table moves to `scripts/lib/alias-drift-families.cjs`
so the checker and the hook derive their surface from one list, and a new parity
test fails if a family is added to the checker without the hook learning to watch
its source — the rot mechanism, not just this instance of it.

Matching is now `grep -Fxqf` (fixed strings, whole line): exact path equality,
no regex anchors to get wrong as the list grows. Staged paths are collected into
a variable before matching, because `grep -q` exits on first match and would
SIGPIPE its upstream, which under `set -o pipefail` turns a successful match into
a non-zero pipeline status.

The two CONTRIBUTING.md recipes pasted copies of the hook bodies inline — a third
parallel surface, and one that had already drifted: the pre-commit copy carried
the same dead `sdk/` patterns, and the pre-push copy would have overwritten the
committed hook with a paraphrase that drops the GIT_OVERRIDE seam its test drives.
Both now just point git at the committed files. The pre-push recipe's
`'@example-corp\\.com$'` also never matched anything — inside single quotes bash
keeps both backslashes.

`.githooks/pre-push` was audited for the same rot and has none: it keys on no
paths, no-ops unless GSD_BLOCKED_AUTHOR_REGEX is set, and is covered. Unchanged.

Hooks stay opt-in. Nothing registers `core.hooksPath` for you, per
CONTRIBUTING.md's documented one-time setup.

* test(#2725): make the hook/checker parity assertion bidirectional

Review finding from the isolated adversarial pass: the parity row only caught
the hook UNDER-watching relative to scripts/lib/alias-drift-families.cjs. Drop a
family from the module and the hook would keep watching its source with nothing
to notice — the same divergence class this change exists to close, just pointed
the other way.

The new row takes every `src/*-command-router.cts` on disk as the universe and
asserts the hook stays silent for the eight routers the drift check does not
read. Both directions are now covered by running the real hook, not by comparing
two lists in the test.

Also corrects a CONTRIBUTING.md overclaim caught by the standards pass: 9 of the
11 watched paths derive from the module, not all 11 — bash cannot require a CJS
module, so the hook carries literals and the test is what binds them.

* fix(#2725): ship the shared family table and fix the mock that hid its own rows

Three defects the remote runner caught that local probing did not.

The mock `git` in the regression test emitted its staged-path payload as
`printf '%s' "src/command-aliases.cts\n"`. Bash does not expand `\n` inside a
double-quoted string and printf does not expand escapes in a `%s` argument, so
the mock produced one unterminated line containing a literal backslash-n. No
whole-line match could ever succeed, and every row that expects the hook to FIRE
failed while every row that expects silence passed — which is exactly the
signature the run reported: 9 failures, all of them fire-expecting rows. The
payload now goes through a file the mock `cat`s, which is byte-exact and is what
makes the CR-terminated and empty-staged-list rows mean what they say.

`scripts/lib/alias-drift-families.cjs` was not enumerated in
`GSD_SCRIPTS_LIB_FILES` (bin/install.js:377), so the installer never copied it.
That is not cosmetic: `scripts/check-alias-drift.cjs` ships, and it now requires
this module — an installed tree would have failed with MODULE_NOT_FOUND the
first time a consumer ran `check:alias-drift`. Added to the manifest, which is
what the #3184 install/uninstall parity tests assert against `readdirSync`.

Regenerated the 19 committed install-tree fixtures via `npm run gen:install-tree`
to record the new emitted path. The diff is +1 line per fixture and nothing else.

`npm run lint:ci` exits 0. The earlier claim that `scripts/` is outside the
emitted surface was wrong: `scripts/lib/` is copied into every runtime's install
tree, which is why 19 golden-install-tree cases moved.

* 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.

* fix(#3184): fence-aware phase detection and one heading-selection 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.

* chore(#3184): backfill changeset PR number

Also narrows the wording to match the shipped behavior: the refusal fires on a
truncated window specifically, not on any non-complete scope.

74d7bc8239 test(#1074): add additive per-file workflow size baseline guard (PR 1/3) (#1089)
* test(#1074): add additive per-file workflow size baseline guard (PR 1/3)

Introduces a committed per-file size baseline scheme alongside (not replacing)
the existing tier anti-creep tests. Green by construction — the baseline
records current sizes, so both schemes pass side by side during migration.

- scripts/lib/allowlist-ratchet.cjs: add assertFileBaseline (third pure helper,
  same injected-fail style) — per-file growth/shrink/add/remove diff vs baseline.
- scripts/workflow-size.cjs: single source of truth for LF-normalized byte
  counting (#683) + workflow enumeration, shared by the guard and the generator
  so they can never measure differently. Lives in scripts/ root (NOT scripts/lib/)
  because it is dev/CI-only tooling — scripts/lib/ is bundled into the installed
  runtime, scripts/ root is not, so this keeps it out of the shipped payload.
- scripts/update-size-baseline.cjs + npm run size:baseline: regenerate the
  snapshot (sorted keys, trailing newline, idempotent).
- tests/workflow-size-baseline.json: generated snapshot (88 workflows).
- tests/workflow-size-budget.test.cjs: import the shared counter (drops the
  duplicated local byteCount) and add the per-file baseline describe block.
- Tests for the helper, the shared module, and the generator (incl. round-trip
  and fault-injection cases).

Refs #1074. Part 1 of 3; PR 2 swaps enforcement, PR 3 covers the agent test.

* test(#1074): regenerate workflow baseline after Update-branch merge with next

The 'Update branch' merge (652a916b) pulled in next's update.md change (#1090)
without regenerating the snapshot, leaving the per-file baseline stale by one
file. Re-ran `npm run size:baseline` so the committed baseline matches the
merged workflow files.

Refs #1074.

f729101eec refactor(scripts): replace process.exit() with ExitError + runMain handler (#739) (#740)
Part 1 of 2 of the n/no-process-exit cleanup (umbrella #738): convert every
process.exit() call in standalone scripts/** CLIs to the rule-compliant pattern.

- New shared helper scripts/lib/cli-exit.cjs: ExitError(code,message) + runMain()
  which translates a thrown ExitError / returned number into process.exitCode
  (never process.exit()), flushing output and still firing process.on('exit').
- main()-based entrypoints: throw new ExitError(code) for errors, return <code>
  for verdicts; invoked via runMain(main). Child exit codes preserved via return.
- top-level-only scripts: imperative body extracted into main() so mid-flow
  aborts (throw ExitError) actually halt; pure consts/helpers stay at module scope.
- diff-touches-shipped-paths.cjs: stdin event handling restructured to an async
  read so the whole flow runs under runMain; uncaughtException/unhandledRejection
  nets replaced by an in-band catch that preserves EXIT_ERROR=2.

Exit codes verified unchanged for every converted script (success/error/help and
the 0/1/2 semantic codes in diff-touches). Rule stays warn here; flipped to error
in part 2 (#738) once gsd-core/bin/** is also clean.

a28dcec981 chore(#597): replace count-based ratchet guards with AST lint + named-set allowlists (#603)
The windows-test-parity ratchet greps test source for fs.rmSync-without-
maxRetries (and six other Windows-portability anti-patterns), failing when an
integer offender COUNT exceeds a frozen baseline (rmSync: 95). A count ratchet
is a Goodhart metric: fixing one offender and adding another keeps the count
constant, so a new defect slips through green. Replace it — and every other
count ratchet in the repo — with a layered, masking-proof design.

Behavioral seam test
- tests/helpers-cleanup.test.cjs proves helpers.cleanup() carries the Windows
  EBUSY retry budget. cleanup() delegates retries to Node's fs.rmSync via
  maxRetries (it owns no loop), so the test asserts the option contract
  (recursive/force/maxRetries>0/retryDelay>0) + real-FS removal + the cwd-guard,
  rather than a loop that does not exist. The EBUSY risk is now tested ONCE at
  the helper, not approximated textually at every call site.

Write-time ESLint rule (AST-accurate, replaces the grep)
- eslint-rules/no-raw-rmsync-in-tests.cjs (error in tests/**/*.test.cjs) bans
  raw fs.rmSync, steering to cleanup(). Catches member, computed (fs['rmSync']),
  destructured and aliased forms; escape hatch is inline
  `// eslint-disable-next-line local/no-raw-rmsync-in-tests -- <reason>` only.
- Migrated 336 raw fs.rmSync teardown calls across ~116 test files to cleanup().
  ~18 genuinely load-bearing sites (mid-test SUT/fault-injection removals,
  error-swallowing or name-colliding local teardown helpers) keep the raw call
  with an inline eslint-disable + reason.

Shared anti-ratchet primitive
- scripts/lib/allowlist-ratchet.cjs:
  - assertWithinAllowlist: fails on NOVEL ids (new offender introduced) AND on
    STALE ids (a known offender was fixed but not pruned) — identity, not count,
    and a ratchet DOWN toward zero.
  - assertTightCeiling: a size/length budget whose ceiling must stay within a
    grace band of the high-water mark, so budgets may only tighten, never creep.

Ratchets converted onto the primitive
- windows-test-parity-guard.test.cjs: rmSync rule deleted (now ESLint-enforced);
  the remaining six patterns moved from integer baselines to named-set
  allowlists with ratchet-down.
- scripts/lint-test-file-count.{cjs,allowlist.json}: per-module integer counts →
  named filename sets (closes the swap-a-file-keep-the-count blind spot); a
  module dropping under cap now FAILS to force pruning its allowlist entry.
- enh-2790 skill-count `<= 63` → named skill allowlist (ratchets toward ~58).

Size budgets hardened (tighten-only)
- agent-size / workflow-size / feat-3039 help-tiered: ceilings lowered to the
  current high-water mark and an assertTightCeiling anti-creep check added per
  tier. Fixed external-contract limits (description ≤100 chars, agent ≤100 KB)
  are intentionally left as-is — they are not grandfathered creeping budgets.

No user-facing behavior change (tests + tooling only); no USER_FACING_PREFIXES
touched, so no changeset fragment is required.
