c28134ab39 fix(#3271): delete 25 duplicated folded test suites and fix three runner defects found doing it (#3285)
* test(#3271): guard against a folded suite appearing twice in one host

Adds local/no-duplicate-fold-marker, an AST rule that reports the second and
every subsequent `folded:<name>` marker in a host file, plus RuleTester cases
and a tree-wide regression assertion.

Failing-first on purpose: the rule is registered at error and the 25 duplicated
regions are still present, so eslint and the new tree-wide test are RED. The
deletions land in the next commit.

The marker key is the whitespace-delimited token after `folded:` — not the
issue's `[a-z0-9-]*` slice, which truncates at `.` and false-positives on
tests/model-resolver.test.cjs where feat-443-effort-fast-mode.integration and
feat-443-effort-fast-mode are two distinct folded suites.

* fix(#3271): delete 25 duplicated folded suites from three install hosts

Three consolidated install suites each carried a verbatim second copy of a
contiguous run of #1969 B1 folded blocks. Byte-identical, constant offset, and
green — each duplicated block registered and ran twice on every lane.

  tests/install.test.cjs                   5981-9937  (3957 lines, 18 blocks)
  tests/install-minimal-hooks.test.cjs     2734-4015  (1282 lines,  5 blocks)
  tests/install-write-confinement.test.cjs 1754-2321  ( 568 lines,  2 blocks)

Introduced by 6d072435d (#1975 re-applying #1970's hunks on a tree that already
had them, 2026-07-03) — one stale-base re-application, three files, one commit.
Verified by marker-count bisect: 1 at 4f779eda4 and 0cc7a1a42, 2 from 6d072435d
onward.

The later copy is deleted in each case, so every file returns to what its
authoring batch produced and blame on the surviving lines stays accurate.
local/no-duplicate-fold-marker, red on the previous commit, is now green.

tests/model-resolver.test.cjs is untouched: the issue lists it, but its two
blocks are folded from two different files and are not identical. It is a false
positive of the issue's own grep, whose `[a-z0-9-]*` key truncates at `.`.

Fixes #3271

* test(#3271): property-test marker identity and pin the alias non-goal

Three review findings, all fixed inline:

1. foldMarkerOf is a parser and carried no fast-check property test. Raised
   independently by the /code-review standards axis and the isolated adversarial
   pass; the file already establishes the fc.property-driving-ruleTester idiom
   for a sibling rule. Added, two arms over markers generated from [a-z0-9-._]:
   the same marker twice always reports exactly once against firstLine 1, and
   two distinct markers never collide. The alphabet includes `.` on purpose —
   an implementation keyed on the issue's [a-z0-9-]* slice passes arm 1 and
   fails arm 2, which is exactly the model-resolver false positive.

2. meta.docs.category was the novel value 'Test hygiene'; all 16 sibling local
   rules use 'Best Practices', 'Portability' or 'Reliability'. Now
   'Best Practices'.

3. A call through a further alias (const d = __foldDescribe) was unreported and
   undocumented — accidental rather than deliberate. It is now the fourth entry
   in the rule's documented non-goals, with the reason, and pinned by a valid
   RuleTester case so it cannot drift silently.

* test(#3271): name the step and elapsed time when a baseline build fails

buildBaselineAtRef runs four bounded steps and, when one exceeded its bound,
threw a bare "spawnSync ETIMEDOUT" naming neither the step nor how long
anything took. Diagnosing one real failure took four separate experiments to
recover information the throw already had.

Each step is now timed, and any throw carries the breakdown: which step failed,
its elapsed time, the timings of every step that completed before it, all three
bounds, and the tail of the child's captured stdout/stderr.

The failure message is deliberately the carrier. On the remote runner the
captured output field comes back empty in failures.json while error and stack
survive verbatim, so the message is the only channel that reaches a reader of a
remote verdict.

Refs #3271

* fix(#3271): size the baseline generator bound for the machine it runs on

Instrumentation from a real remote-runner failure gave the breakdown:

  git-worktree-add=15.1s  npm-run-build-lib=19.8s  gen-emitted-baseline=FAILED@300.1s

Steps 1 and 2 are comfortable. Only the generator exceeds its bound, and it is
not hung — it needs more than 300s there.

Measured ladder for that step: ~22s idle in a container, ~39s end-to-end in a
clean container, ~142s with 8 CPU burners on 8 cores, and >300s under the real
suite. Its cost is 19 sequential installer spawns, and spawn latency is exactly
where a container degrades worst (3.9x slower than host, against 1.1x for file
IO) — which is why a CPU-only load test did not reproduce it and why four
earlier hypotheses (container slowness, network, shallow clone, CPU contention)
all measured clean.

The 300s bound was sized on an idle machine for a step that never runs on one.
Under the remote runner the on-disk baseline cache is structurally absent — CI
restores it via actions/cache keyed on github.event.pull_request.base.sha, a key
that exists only inside GitHub Actions — so this slow path runs on every remote
verification. The result: this gate has passed 0 times in 754 runs, failing 80
times and never once executing successfully.

Raised to the 600000ms ceiling that local/no-unbounded-spawn treats as the
largest meaningful bound; the other two bounds are untouched. This makes the
gate RUN, which is the point: the alternative considered and rejected was
degrading the timeout to a skip, and that was measured to turn the suite green
with the gate silently not running at all.

The real remedy is making the cache reachable from the remote runner so the
in-job build returns to being the rare fallback ADR-2719 §5 describes. That is a
gsd-test-runner change, not one this repo can make.

* fix(#3271): tolerate an overlay source that vanishes mid-walk

Observed on the remote runner, three runs across three different branches:

  ENOENT: no such file or directory, link '/work/hooks/dist/gsd-config-reload.js'
    -> '/tmp/gsd-2930-overlay-6nOZay/hooks/dist/gsd-config-reload.js'

buildOverlayRepo enumerates names with readdirSync and then acts on each one, so
statSync, copyFileSync and linkSync all sit in a TOCTOU window. hooks/dist is
regenerated by an ATOMIC REPLACE (scripts/build-hooks.js unlinks and renames), so
any concurrently running test that rebuilds hooks retires a just-listed name
mid-walk and the overlay dies on it. linkOrCopyFile already tolerated EXDEV and
EPERM; ENOENT went straight through.

On ENOENT the source is now re-examined ONCE rather than slept on. An atomic
rename is a single syscall, so by the time the failure surfaces the successor is
either already in place (the retry succeeds) or the path has genuinely left the
tree, in which case there is nothing to mirror and the leaf is skipped. No sleep
and no spin: a timing-based wait here would be the very flake being fixed. Every
other errno still propagates untouched, so a real permission or IO fault stays a
hard failure.

Five tests hold the boundary: gone-for-good skips without retrying, mid-replace
retries exactly once and places the file, EACCES still throws, a real linkSync
ENOENT is injected by monkeypatching fs and restoring it in a finally (never a
mode-bit trick, which root bypasses), and isMissingPath accepts only ENOENT.

Refs #3271

* fix(#3271): order the timeout ladder inward-out and lock it

Two review blockers, both real.

The generator bound had been raised to 600000ms — exactly the whole-chunk timeout
in scripts/run-tests.cjs:973. A step bound equal to the chunk ceiling loses the
race: the chunk is killed first and the failure arrives as an opaque "no failed
step" kill, so the per-step diagnostic added a commit earlier was built and then
made unreachable in the same change.

Separately the #2767 test declared a per-test timeout of 300000ms, BELOW the
inner bound it was meant to permit, so it could still die at the exact 300s
ceiling this was supposed to lift — via node:test's timeout rather than
spawnSync's. Its sibling declared 900000ms, above the chunk ceiling, which is the
same opaque-kill hazard from the other direction.

The three bounds only produce a useful failure if they fire inward-out, so they
now do: step 360s, per-test 480s, chunk 600s. 360s is ~3x the passing observation
(91.6s / 115.8s) and 20% above the censored 300.1s timeout, while leaving 240s of
chunk headroom for every other file sharing it. Four tests lock the ordering,
including a drift guard on the exported values — without it, editing a call
site's literal timeout would leave the ordering assertions passing while the real
ladder inverted.

Also from review:

- err.gsdBaselineStep and err.gsdBaselineTimings were written and never read
  anywhere in the tree; only the rewritten message is consumed. Removed rather
  than kept as speculative surface.
- buildOverlayRepo discarded placeVanishableLeaf's boolean at both call sites, so
  a vanished leaf left the overlay with no accounting at all. It now collects the
  skipped paths and warns once. Not thrown: a source that left the tree really is
  not part of the snapshot, and throwing would reintroduce the crash the
  tolerance removes — but silence would let a dropped leaf resurface later as an
  unrelated missing-file assertion.
- The instrumentation commit shipped no test. One now drives a real failure and
  asserts the message names the step, its elapsed time, and the bounds.

* chore(#3271): backfill the changeset PR number

* fix(#3271): bound a hook fan-out as its own class, not as a bare probe

CI failure on PR #3285, job full test (windows-latest, 22, shard 2/3) — every
other lane green, including windows-latest node 24 across all three shards:

  not ok 1 - blocks push when any to-be-pushed commit matches local blocked regex
    error: bash .githooks\pre-push failed — outcome=timed_out exitCode=null stderr=
    duration_ms: 15040.2168

A bound, not a hang: the test supplies stdin via input:, so the hook is not
blocked reading its ref list, and the duration lands exactly on the 15000ms
bound.

The site used PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS, which tests/helpers/timeouts.cjs documents as "a
single short CLI query or node -e probe against a temp fixture". This is not
that. It spawns bash running .githooks/pre-push, and the hook then invokes a MOCK
git that is itself a bash script, so one runHook is roughly four Git Bash spawns.
On Windows each is Defender-scanned and the first hook test in a file pays cold
start on top. That module's own docstring warns against precisely this: a call
site that differs from its class must not be forced onto a shared value that does
not describe it.

HOOK_FANOUT_TIMEOUT_MS is that missing class — 60000ms, 4x the bound that failed
and half INSTALL_TIMEOUT_MS, which is the right order: a hook fan-out is much
lighter than a full installer run and far heavier than reading back a version
string. Two tests lock the ordering against both neighbours, including one
asserting real margin over the censored 15040ms observation, since a bound that
merely matched what was measured would be the same defect again.

Scoped deliberately: the other ~360 runHook sites keep their current bounds. This
adds the norm and applies it where a real failure demonstrated the need, rather
than sweeping a value across sites with no evidence for any of them.

3fac6e629f test(#3145): bound the installer/runtime cluster onto the process seam (#3176)
* test(#3145): bound the installer/runtime cluster onto the process seam

Migrates 156 unbounded sync spawn sites across 47 files. Allowlist 120 to 73.

Timeouts are sized from evidence already in the tree rather than a house
default, because this wave spawns installers rather than git plumbing and an
undersized bound does not catch a hang -- it manufactures CI flake, which is
worse, since a flake gets re-run instead of investigated. install.test.cjs
records a real spawnSync ETIMEDOUT at a 60000ms cap on a loaded bench while
another lane passed the same commit in 12.7s, so full installs are bound at
120000ms against that recorded incident.

Also adds an auditable escape to the guard's timeout ceiling. The 600000ms
cap was set in #3143 from partial evidence, but fragment-single-edit-
propagation carries a documented, load-tested 900000ms bound on a run that
chains a full build plus eight generators -- the guard would have rejected a
correct timeout the moment that file left the allowlist. A value above the
ceiling is now permitted only with an inline allow-spawn-timeout-ceiling
marker carrying a non-empty reason. It raises the ceiling; it never waives
the requirement for a bound, which is asserted directly.

install-shared.cjs keeps its hand-rolled assert rather than routing through
throwIfFailed: its message embeds both streams, and throwIfFailed carries
only a trimmed stderr. The message now also names the outcome, so a bounded
timeout reads as such across its 38 importers instead of as
expected null to equal 0.

* test(#3145): extract class-norm timeouts and correct the build-hooks sizing

A pre-PR review found 52 copies of four class-norm timeout constants across
this wave. These are not per-suite fixture bindings -- they are shared facts
about how long a class of subprocess takes, derived from a recorded bench
incident. That norm already moved once (60000 to 120000 after a real
ETIMEDOUT), and 52 copies would have drifted the next time it moved.

Extracts tests/helpers/timeouts.cjs, where each norm is justified once, and
converts the copies. A site that genuinely differs -- a real tsc compile, or
regen:derived -- keeps its own local constant with its own justification.

Also corrects a misclassification: scripts/build-hooks.js was sized as a
build at 120000 in twelve places and 60000 in another, but it compiles and
bundles nothing. Its own header says no bundling needed; it copies pre-built
files and syntax-checks them with vm. Three different values bounded one
script; now there is one.

* test(#3145): fix red CI — lint self-match and a Windows chunk overrun

Two failures on PR 3176.

lint-allow-test-rule-refs read a RuleTester fixture as a real exemption. The
fixture exists to prove an unrelated marker does NOT suppress the rule, so it
carries that marker's literal text as test data. Split via concatenation, the
same idiom no-unbounded-spawn-allowlist.test.cjs already uses for its own
self-match problem. The explanatory comment needed the same treatment.

The Windows shard 3/3 chunk was killed at its 600000ms budget. Output stopped
seven minutes before the kill, so this was an overrun rather than a slow
chunk: regenDerivedPropagatesSingleFragmentEditWithNoSecondSourceSurface runs
regen:derived bounded at 900000ms, which is larger than the whole chunk
budget, so the chunk killer always fires first and it can never complete
there. Both the test and that bound predate this change; modifying the file
pulled it into the Windows targeted set and exposed it. Skipped on Windows
with the reason recorded; the Linux lanes cover it. The 900000 bound and its
ceiling marker are unchanged -- they are correct.

* test(#3145): refresh the stale test-timings cost table

The Windows shard was killed at its 600000ms per-chunk budget. run-tests.cjs
packs chunks by measured duration from tests/test-timings.json, and an
unknown file falls back to the table's median weight -- advisory by design,
but it silently underweights exactly the files that matter.

Four of the failing chunk's 22 files were absent from the table, including
the two heaviest: fragment-single-edit-propagation.install.test.cjs at 230s
(it runs regen:derived) and agent-fragments-emission.install.test.cjs at 79s.
Both were weighted as average, so the chunk's total weight read 53.68 against
a budget of 60 and the packer produced a single chunk.

Regenerated from a passing full-suite run, per the remedy the script itself
documents. 700 to 770 entries, 70 added, 0 dropped -- verified, since
gen-test-timings.cjs replaces the table wholesale rather than merging.

Proven against the real packer: the same 22 files now weigh 103.91 and split
into two chunks. No logic, budget, or timeout was changed; raising a budget
to make a red gate pass is not a fix.

53ea8e0664 fix(#3057): make a guard's failure distinguishable from its benign result — Wave 1 (#3088)
* fix(#3057): refuse the write when the duplicate scan cannot complete

writeManifest documents itself as a fail-closed duplicate guard: if any
existing manifest shares plan_id with a different, non-terminal job_id it must
refuse, because dispatching again would duplicate the external job.

It could not honour that. The scan reads every sibling manifest looking for the
duplicate, and an unreadable or unparseable sibling was `continue`d past. If
the corrupt file was the one holding the live duplicate, the scan found nothing
and a duplicate external job dispatched.

The asymmetry is what gives it away: a malformed TARGET refused with
malformed_existing because clobbering is unacceptable, while a malformed
SIBLING was skipped — yet siblings are the only thing the duplicate check
reads.

Adds a scan_incomplete verdict that refuses and names the offending file, so an
operator can quarantine or repair it. Fail-closed alone would let one stale
corrupt manifest wedge every dispatch for that planning dir permanently; naming
the file is what makes refusing survivable. malformed_existing is untouched, so
the target/sibling distinction stays visible. The docstring is updated — it
previously stated a rule the function did not keep.

memFs() gains an optional failReads map so these branches are reachable at all;
they had zero coverage because the fake could not express a per-file read
fault. The signature is additive and every existing caller is unchanged.

The regression is proved by a pair, not a single test. A control writes a
readable sibling holding a genuine non-terminal duplicate and asserts
duplicate_plan_id, establishing the scenario is real; the regression then makes
that same path unreadable and asserts scan_incomplete. A first draft of this
test used a corrupt-JSON fixture containing no plan_id at all while its comment
claimed otherwise — it duplicated the unparseable-sibling case and proved
nothing, which is the defect class this phase exists to remove.

* fix(#3057): make a guard's failure distinguishable from its benign result

Wave 1 of the negative-space backfill: the branches where a guard that could
not verify something reported the same value it reports when everything is
fine. That indistinguishability is the defect; every fix here makes the two
states tellable apart, and every test proves it with a pair — one for the
failure, one for the benign case. A single test cannot establish that two
states are distinguishable, which is the whole property being fixed.

state.cts phaseInventoryProvider returned null for both a real disk-scan
failure and a genuinely empty phases dir, so `state rebuild` could report
success while phase-table reconciliation never ran. It now returns a
discriminated result and the CLI surfaces phase_inventory_scan_failed plus a
reason. The reason field turned out never to have been wired into the emitted
JSON at all — it existed only as an internal variable — so a test could only
assert on the operator-facing note. It is a real field now.

state.cts treated an unreadable lock body the same as an empty one, applying
the 1-second stealable floor. A lock we cannot read is not a lock we know is
stale; an unreadable body is now held to the deadman ceiling like a live
holder.

verification.cts findStaleVerificationSummary returned null on any fs, scan or
clock failure — meaning "not stale". It now returns a discriminated
StaleCheckResult and the caller records that the check was indeterminate.

git-base-branch resolveBaseBranch returned 'main' both when no candidate branch
existed and when every git tier timed out. A diagnostics variant now reports
whether the answer was verified, and the CLI writes an unverified-fallback note
to stderr. The stdout contract five workflows parse is untouched.

worktree-safety snapshotWorktreeInventory left exists:true when statSync threw,
so a guard that could not check reported the worktree present; exists is now
tri-state and a stat failure surfaces as an 'unverified' finding.
planWorktreePrune reported 'no_worktrees' for a parse failure, which is not the
same as an empty list — and it drives a prune. It now reports 'parse_failed'.

Fixing the inventory change exposed a second fail-open in verify.cts: the
validate-health consumer silently dropped findings whose kind it did not
recognise, so the new kind would have vanished. That is closed too — worth
noting that the survey enumerated producers of degraded verdicts, not consumers
that discard them.

worktree-base-ref and state-transition gain the distinguishing signal without
changing what they do: headAbsenceVerified, and a phase-inventory scan meta.
Whether those guards should ACT differently is a product question this change
does not answer, and both are flagged rather than quietly settled.

rescueSummaryArtifacts is left alone: rescuing on an uncertain cat-file is
deliberate per #2556. It now has tests proving it, and a recorded negative
finding — git cat-file -e returns 128 for both "absent from HEAD" and a fatal
error, so "uncertain" and "certain-and-fine" are not separable at the git
level.

* test(#3057): assert typed values, not rendered text

Ten assertions in the rebuild CLI suite matched substrings of produced output —
STATE.md body fields, a markdown table row, an audit-log heading, and JSON keys
read as text. CONTRIBUTING prohibits that: if the code under test produces
text, the test asserts on its structured surface instead.

No production surface had to be built. Every one already existed and was
already compiled into bin/lib: stateExtractField for body fields,
parseMarkdownTable for the phase table, collectSection for the audit-log
section, and result.data.log — already a typed RebuildLogEntry[]. The tests
were matching rendered text sitting next to the structured data.

One of those assertions was passing for the wrong reason. `stdout.includes
('rebuilt')` matched the JSON KEY name, not a value: the dry-run path emits
`mutated` and the real path emits `rebuilt`, so it would have passed whether
the value was true or false. It now asserts the value.

external-job's refusal already had to name the offending file — that naming is
why the fail-closed variant is survivable rather than a permanent wedge — but
the tests proved it by substring of a prose message. The failure result now
carries offendingPath as its own field and the tests assert it by value. The
human message is unchanged; operators read it.

Array membership is left alone. `phaseIds.includes('99')` and
`result.updated.includes('Completed Phases')` are membership checks on real
arrays, not text matching, and converting them would weaken nothing and clarify
nothing.

* test(#3057): execute acquireStateLock instead of grepping its source

The non-EEXIST lock test asserted on the TEXT of the built .cjs and never
called acquireStateLock. It carried an allow-test-rule: architectural-invariant
exemption to permit that. A source grep proves a literal is present in a file,
not that the behaviour works — it is weaker than a liveness test, which at
least runs the code, and it was the only coverage the fatal-errno path had.

Replaced with tests that inject the errno through fs and assert what actually
happens: a fatal EACCES propagates out of acquireStateLock with zero backoff
sleeps, while EAGAIN/EINTR/EINVAL/EIO/ENOENT/ESTALE/EPERM/EBUSY retry once and
succeed. The exemption is removed and its allowlist entry with it.

One old assertion is deliberately not carried over: it checked the retryable
errnos were expressed as a Set rather than an inline literal. That is a shape
check with no runtime signature; the behavioural tests fail if the code reverts
to the old inline check, which is the regression it was really guarding.

The #3057 lock-body tests move into that same file rather than a new one, which
is what lint-test-file-count asks for and puts every acquireStateLock test in
one place.

* fix(#3057): surface an indeterminate staleness check to its callers

An isolated review caught an inconsistency inside this wave. Two of the three
"add the distinguishing signal" fixes wire through to something a user sees:
git base-branch writes an unverified-fallback diagnostic to stderr, and an
unverifiable worktree surfaces as a W020 finding. The third set
staleCheckIndeterminate on readVerificationStatus's result and nothing read it.

A signal nobody consumes leaves the fail-open exactly as silent as before: the
staleness check could fail and the operator saw precisely what they would see
if the answer were genuinely "not stale". That is the defect this issue exists
to remove, so it is not defensible as scaffolding when its two siblings in the
same change already wire through.

All five callers now surface it, each through the channel it already had rather
than a mechanism imposed uniformly: phase complete adds it to its existing
warnings array and, on the blocked path, as an additive note on the error text;
init and roadmap carry it as a field on output they already emit; the UAT
report carries it without ever gating passed/blockers; workstream inventory
takes an injectable writeDiagnostic mirroring the git base-branch idiom,
because its return shape had nowhere to hang a per-phase field without
rippling the builder's types.

The routing decision is unchanged everywhere. What changes is only that a
caller and an operator can now tell a failed check from a completed one.

That diagnostic carries structured meta rather than being asserted by regex —
the default still writes only the human message to stderr, but tests assert
phaseDir and reason by value. Two earlier assertions in this branch were
converted the same way; this was the last raw-text assertion left.

Also records a scope correction: the completePhaseCore guards now compare
stateReplaceField's result to the body instead of testing truthiness, so a
field whose substitution produced identical text no longer reports as updated.
That is a real behaviour fix, not the signal-only change this file was
described as carrying, and its tests cover both the changed and unchanged
cases.

* test(#3057): bound two heavy subprocesses for a loaded bench, not an idle one

The remote matrix surfaced three failures unrelated to this branch's changes.
All were bad tests, and a re-run would have hidden every one of them.

The reviewer-flags parse block bounded bash -> node -> a full gsd-tools cold
start at 5 seconds. On a bench running thirty thousand tests in parallel that
is not a hang, it is a busy machine. Raised to 30s, matching the convention
sibling suites already use for script invocations, with a comment saying what
the budget covers so nobody tightens it back. Two further copies of the same
5-second spawn in the same file had the identical defect and are raised too —
they were not in the failure report, but they will be next time.

The fragment-propagation test bounded npm run regen:derived — a full build plus
eight generators, the heaviest subprocess in the suite — at five minutes, and
node22 was killed near the end. The captured output proves it: every generator
had written its files and gen:install-tree had emitted all fifteen runtimes
before the kill. Raised to fifteen minutes.

That failure read as `null !== 0`, which says nothing. status null means killed,
not a non-zero exit, and the two want different responses: one is a timeout to
size correctly, the other is a real build break. The assertion now distinguishes
them and names the signal.

Neither test's assertions were weakened and no retry was added. A retry here
would suppress exactly the signal the timeout exists to produce.

* test(#3057): capture fd 1 through the mock tracker, not a raw reassignment

The phase suite reported zero test results on both lanes while running for five
and a half minutes and exiting 1. No assertion text, no stderr, four events for
the whole file: enqueue, start, dequeue, complete. That shape is not a failing
assertion — it is the runner being unable to read the child at all, because it
parses its event stream from the child's stdout.

The cause was the capture helper reassigning fs.writeSync directly. Proven
rather than assumed: a standalone probe patched fs.writeSync and called
process.stdout.write, and the interception fired only when fd 1 resolved to a
FILE, not when it was a pipe. The remote runner captures the event stream to a
file, so a helper that was invisible against a pipe swallowed the reporter's own
output on the bench. That is also why the two sibling suites wired the same way
in this change pass cleanly — they use the mock tracker, the seam io.test.cjs
established for this exact function.

The helper now uses t.mock.method with an explicit restore after each call, so
teardown belongs to node:test rather than a second hand-rolled implementation,
and the interception cannot outlive the one synchronous call it wraps even if
that call throws. Ten call sites thread the test context through; three test
callbacks gained the parameter they lacked.

The three B3 tests are untouched — same assertions, same fault injection. Only
how the context reaches the helper changed.

* test(#3057): capture phase-complete output from a subprocess, not fd 1

Two attempts to make in-process fd-1 interception safe both failed on the
bench. The suite reported zero test results on either lane while exiting 1 —
four events for the whole file — because the runner parses its event stream
from the child's stdout, and process.stdout.write routes through fs.writeSync
whenever fd 1 resolves to a file, which is how the runner captures. Patching
that seam anywhere in a file can therefore destroy the file's own reporting,
and tightening the window only moved the runtime from 326s to 125s without
recovering a single event.

So the interception is gone rather than tuned. The helper now spawns gsd-tools
as a real subprocess and reads stdout the way the OS already gives it to us,
which is what the rest of the suite does. It asserts the command succeeded
before parsing, so a genuine failure can no longer present as a JSON parse
error.

The two fault-injecting tests could not survive that move as written: a
subprocess cannot see a mock installed in the parent. Instead of reinstating
the interception they now produce the fault on disk — the summary artifact is
created as a dangling symlink, so the staleness check's real statSync throws
inside the child. That is a more honest fixture than a mock in any case, since
it is a condition a user's tree can actually be in. Skipped on Windows, matching
the existing symlink precedent in the write-guard suite.

Three further call sites turned out to depend on parent-process writeFileSync
mocks the subprocess could not see. Those call the CJS function directly, which
is what they always wanted — they never needed stdout at all.

* fix(#3057): one name for one signal, one encoding for one distinction

Standards review found four things this branch introduced, all of them
inconsistencies with itself rather than with the repo.

One upstream bit reached its consumers under three names —
verification_stale_check_indeterminate in two modules, the same value with
"stale" dropped in a third, and stderr only in the fourth. Standardised on the
long name wherever it is a field. The workstream inventory keeps its stderr
channel, since its return shape has nowhere to hang a per-phase field without
rippling the builder's types, but it now says the same word for the same thing.

worktree-safety encoded one three-way distinction two ways in a single file: a
named union for a finding's kind, and boolean|null for an inventory entry's
existence. The second is now a named union too.

Two assertions matched human prose because the blocked and non-blocked
completion paths carried no typed field for the signal. Both now assert typed
values. The first round of this fix added the field but left the regex beside
it, which is the banned pattern sitting next to its own replacement; the second
removed it and added an assertion on the reason enum so nothing was lost.

The remaining two were reasoned away before being fixed, and both reasons were
bad. "No typed surface exists" is the condition CONTRIBUTING says to fix by
adding one — it took three lines. "The file already does this dozens of times"
is not licence to add instance number thirty-one; a convention that violates a
documented rule is debt, not precedent.

Vocabulary differing across DIFFERENT modules is left alone: CONTEXT.md rejects
a single shared result envelope, so per-module shapes are precedented, and a
baseline smell does not outrank a documented standard.

A census of every line this branch adds to a test file now finds no regex or
substring assertion on produced prose: 87 strictEqual, 25 ok (all non-empty or
shape guards), 12 equal, 3 throws (all typed err.code predicates), 3
deepStrictEqual, 2 notStrictEqual.

b780cd2dc6 test(#2933): prove one fragment edit reaches every emitted artifact (#3046)
Epic #1671 Phase 6 "Done when" required a maintainer-reachable proof that a
single-fragment edit propagates to every emitted per-runtime artifact with no
second source surface needing an edit. No test referenced that surface at all.

Adds tests/fragment-single-edit-propagation.install.test.cjs (20 rows): a
hard-linked overlay repo overrides exactly ONE steps/ fragment, real installers
are spawned per runtime, and the emitted artifacts are asserted directly.
Expected runtime sets derive from RUNTIME_META at run time, never a hardcoded
count, so a new runtime cannot be silently under-covered.

Six negative controls keep it from being pass-always theater. An
identity-stubbed composer must make marker bytes LEAK, proving the
marker-absence assertion can fail. Each derived generator whose --check is used
as evidence has its own red-path control driven by an override-only edit, each
asserting the generator's own typed reason enum rather than matching prose.

Coverage is disclosed, not implied. REGEN_STEPS_WITHOUT_CHECK_MODE names the
regen:derived steps with no read-only mode; CONTENT_EDIT_INSENSITIVE_CHECKS
names gen-inventory-manifest, whose --check derives from directory listings and
is structurally blind to content edits. Both constants are pinned by a test so
the disclosure cannot silently rot.

Assertions check sentinel PRESENCE, not whole-file byte identity: partial-wave.md
embeds the runtime-launcher snippet, so emitted fragments are legitimately
rewritten per runtime (windsurf -> .windsurf, qwen -> .qwen, claude -> its
absolute config dir). A dedicated row now locks that behavior in.

The overlay tree-diff is labelled a harness self-check, not the no-cascade
proof it cannot be: the overlay is built from the checkout with the override
map applied, so that diff can only ever restate the test's own fixture.

Extracts buildOverlayRepo into tests/helpers/overlay-repo.cjs so both install
suites share one implementation instead of diverging copies, converts that
sibling's six try/finally test bodies to t.after() per CONTRIBUTING.md, and
frees each per-runtime temp install eagerly so peak disk stays bounded.
