69e7afd0c7 chore(#3212): bounded quantifiers over document content — prohibition with teeth — Phase 4 (#3441)
* feat(#3415): ship local/no-unbounded-quantifier, burn down ReDoS class

Phase 4 of epic #3212 (ADR-3212 §5/§7, the final phase). New rule flags
an unbounded */+/{n,} quantifier over a broad character class
([\s\S], dotAll ., or a 1-2-unit negated class like [^\n]/[^)\n] — the
exact #2128-fixed shape) applied to a regex whose match target is
data-flow-traced to readFileSync content.

eslint-rules/lib/readfilesync-trace.cjs extracts the data-flow tracer
shared with no-crlf-fragile-split (Phase 2) rather than a second copy
— no-crlf-fragile-split refactored onto it with zero behavior change,
parity-tested.

Real triage, not 798 mechanical edits: the ADR's census (2026-08-08)
screened every unbounded quantifier in the tree unscoped. Correctly
scoped to readFileSync-derived content (matching Phase 2's own G2/G3
scoping), the rule found 162 real hits across two detection waves — the
second wave (93) surfaced only after a genuine off-by-one bug in this
rule's own first draft was caught while writing its RuleTester tests
and fixed (the bug silently missed every directly-quantified [\s\S]*
with no gap before the quantifier — exactly the class this rule exists
to catch). 3 hits landed in production src/ (commands.cts, milestone.cts,
roadmap.cts) and were each empirically timed against adversarial input
(matching #2128's own measured-not-assumed precedent) — all confirmed
linear-time/benign, left unbounded with a measured-evidence comment
rather than mechanically bounded. The remaining 159 are test-file
fixture parsing (test-author-controlled, fixed-size content, not
adversarial input) — each suppressed with a specific, non-generic
reason. Zero functional behavior changed anywhere in this diff.

tests/no-pending-3212-markers.test.cjs locks the epic's own closing
invariant (ADR §7: "assert zero pending #3212 markers remain") — ground
truth confirmed trivially true today (no phase left any such marker
behind), now regression-locked going forward.

* fix(#3415): correct rule category mislabel, add CI test-scope entry

An orthogonal Standards-axis review found eslint-rules/no-unbounded-quantifier.cjs
mistakenly carried meta.docs.category: 'Portability', copied from a sibling
rule without realizing what that implied: docs/contributing/cross-platform-
portability-rules.md governs an ADR-1703 rule family under a hard "zero
escape hatches" contract (tests/portability-rule-disable-ban.test.cjs's
PROTECTED_RULES bans eslint-disable for those rules entirely). This rule is
not part of that family — it's ADR-3212 (ReDoS/CWE-1333), a different epic —
and its eslint-disable-next-line suppressions (159 of them, added earlier
this same phase after empirical benign-verification) are an intentional,
correct design, not a bypass. Corrected to category: 'Best Practices',
matching the actual precedent (no-adhoc-regex-escape.cjs, Phase 1 of the
same epic, which is also correctly outside PROTECTED_RULES), and the rule's
own docstring now states this explicitly so a future reader doesn't have to
re-derive it.

Also registers a new scripts/ci-test-scope.cjs bucket so editing this rule
or the shared eslint-rules/lib/readfilesync-trace.cjs helper re-runs their
own test suites under targeted CI selection — was previously unregistered
and invisible to that fast-path (this PR's own gsd-test checkpoint runs the
full suite regardless, so this only affects future narrowly-scoped PRs).

* fix(#3415): bound no-unbounded-quantifier's own scanner (CWE-1333, ironic)

Security review found the rule meant to catch algorithmic-complexity bugs
had one of its own: hasUnboundedBroadQuantifier's negated-class inner
scan walked from each `[^` occurrence to the next `]` (or EOF) with no
bound, while the outer loop only ever advanced by one character — O(n²)
total work on a pattern with many unclosed `[^` runs. Runs unconditionally
inside checkPattern on any `new RegExp('literal string')` argument in any
linted file, before the (cheap) readFileSync data-flow gate — so a single
crafted string literal, no valid regex syntax required, could make
`npm run lint` / CI hang.

Empirically confirmed both the bug and the fix: pre-fix, n=4000/8000/
16000/32000 chars took 30.8/115.6/463.8/1874.3ms (~4x work per 2x n,
quadratic); extrapolated, the 300000-char repro from the finding would
run ~165s. Post-fix (bail the inner scan once units exceeds the rule's
own 1-2-unit scope, rather than continuing to hunt for a closing `]`),
the same 300000-char input runs in 8.7ms via the real rule module,
independently reconfirmed at 18ms via a fresh Linter.verify() call.

New regression row in tests/no-unbounded-quantifier.rule.test.cjs
asserts the RuleTester run on a 50000-char adversarial pattern
completes and returns a defined result — no wall-clock assertion
(CLAUDE.md Clock Seams / local/no-elapsed-assertion).

* fix(#3415): triage 3 new sites, re-raise ceiling after upstream batch

next merged 12 more PRs during this PR's review. Two consequences:

- tests/edit-phase.test.cjs (fix #3262, unrelated) added 3 new
  content.match(/<tag>([\s\S]*?)<\/tag>/) reads of this repo's own
  workflow .md content — the same Class A pattern as the ~159 sites
  already triaged elsewhere in this PR. Suppressed with the same
  established reason.
- lint-allow-test-rule-refs' ratchet ceiling needed re-raising again
  (301 -> 303) for the same reason as the two prior bumps: organic
  growth from unrelated, already-reviewed PRs landing concurrently,
  not a defect in this branch's own diff.

aceea3ce4a refactor(#3217): withhold a percentage when its scope is not complete (#3318)
* wip(#3217): rule-4 scope withholding — parked, two open findings

Implemented but NOT shippable. An isolated review found buildStateFrontmatter
still hardcodes SCOPE.COMPLETE, so state json reports percent 0 where roadmap
analyze, stats and query progress all correctly report null on the same disk
state - rule 4 reintroduced at a site this phase claims to close. Also: roadmap
analyze emits scope complete beside progress_percent null with nothing
explaining it.

Parked to build Phase 4 (#3186) first, which is unblocked. Findings recorded in
.gsd/phase/refactor-3217-completion-ratio-scoping/60-review.json.

* fix(#3217): withhold the sync percentage on a non-complete scope

The parked blocker is fixed - buildStateFrontmatter no longer hardcodes
SCOPE.COMPLETE, and the prose Progress fallback is gated too, which was a second
leak found while tracing the first. roadmap analyze exposes progress_scope so a
consumer can tell WHY a percentage is absent from the JSON alone.

Then a residual gap was reproduced rather than assumed. cmdStateSync carried the
same hardcode behind a written reason claiming it did not reproduce. It did: on a
TRUNCATED window and on UNSCOPED row 4, state sync wrote Progress 0 percent to 100
percent while state json, roadmap analyze, stats and query progress all withheld -
and it persisted a self-contradictory file, body claiming 100 percent while its own
frontmatter correctly omitted percent.

The excuse was also wrong. syncRoadmapRaw is already parsed in that function and is
exactly what produces a real scope, so there was a scope to pass. Threaded through
listMilestonePhaseDirs; a non-complete scope now skips the write with a reason in
changes. milestoneBounded stays as the orthogonal 1761 guard for row 5.

Second time this epic a does-not-reproduce claim was too generous. Recorded in
ADR Amendment 8 as a correction rather than a quiet rewrite.

Verified on the remote runner.

* test(#3217): give the withholding fixtures a resolvable scope

40 matrix failures, all fixture drift - no code regression. My own hypothesis
that this was over-withholding was wrong and is recorded as such: the worry case,
a plain ROADMAP with Phase entries and no version heading, resolves to complete
exactly as ADR 7.1 says it should.

The real causes were two fixture shapes. Most had no ROADMAP.md at all, which is
unreadable via a pre-existing graceful path, and asserted a numeric percent. The
five vscode, pi-extension, mcp-server and shell-projection failures were that
shape - bare temp dirs using progress json as a reachability proxy while
asserting typeof percent is number, which under rule 4 is now null.

The rest had a version token in a title or heading with no STATE.md milestone
pointer to resolve it, which is classification row 4, versioned but unresolved,
so withholding is correct per the contract.

Verified on the remote runner.

* test(#3217): make the LM-tools reachability tests dispatch against their fixture

The gsd_progress reachability test was never testing its fixture. invoke()
resolves cwd from vscode.workspace.workspaceFolders by design (the real
LanguageModelToolInvocationOptions has no cwd field, per the 2103 fix in
extension.js), the mock had no workspace at all, and the test passed a cwd option
nothing reads - so it dispatched against the repo working directory. Writing a
ROADMAP into the temp dir had no effect. Rule 4 only made it visible.

Fixed by mocking workspaceFolders. The two siblings in the same file carried the
identical dead cwd and were dispatching against the repo too; they were not
failing only because their assertions did not touch scope-dependent output. Both
now use their own fixture with assertions unchanged - the no-planning fallback
paths already satisfy them honestly.

Re-scanned the other five reachability files: no further instances. They thread
cwd into parameters that genuinely read it, not through an options shape that
ignores it.

Verified on the remote runner.

* chore(#3217): backfill changeset PR number

pr:0 placeholder replaced with the real number now that #3318 exists.

* ci(#3217): give the coverage merge enough heap for the merged shards

The coverage gate OOMed at exit 134. c8 report merges three shard artifacts,
roughly 358MB of V8 dumps in coverage/tmp, and died holding their per-file
position maps at the ~4GB default heap. Verified as this branch's delta rather
than pre-existing: the same job succeeded on next at 14:18, after phases 4 and 5
merged.

Both coverage-gate steps get the bump because both re-slice the same merged data.
8192 doubles what failed and leaves headroom on a 16GB ubuntu runner, matching
the idiom the shard step already uses at 6144.

This is a memory bound, not a change to what is measured. No threshold was
touched. The test file was checked for gratuitous subprocess spawning and is
already reasonable at 43 spawns, each a distinct fixture-by-surface pairing.

Verified on the remote runner.
