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

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

progress.md shrinks 32630 -> 27207 bytes.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Two defects the new tests caught.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Review findings.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

All 15 were real and identical on both lanes.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Two review findings addressed on top of the prior commit:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Refs #2993

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

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

Neither workflow forwarded its flags to the init CLI:

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

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

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

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

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

Refs #2993

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

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

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

Refs #2993

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Closes #2932

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

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

Builds the predicate map on a null prototype and guards the lookup with an
explicit Object.hasOwn check. Adds table-driven coverage for nine
Object.prototype-shaped keys asserting the TYPED reason (asserting only
that it throws would still pass while broken) plus a fast-check property
injecting a hostile value at an arbitrary document position.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Three findings from the isolated review, all fixed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Two findings from the installer-focused review.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

c5e0371775 feat(#1951): reversibility tagging — gate one-way-door decisions (#2471)
* test(#1951): add failing-first tests for reversibility tagging

Red phase for issue #1951 (reversibility tagging: classify decisions by
undo cost, gate one-way doors behind a checkpoint:decision).

Tests assert, per the issue's acceptance criteria:
- discuss-phase CONTEXT.md template records a **Reversibility:** field with
  a rationale on captured decisions, and states it is optional
- gsd-planner @-references planner-reversibility.md and stays under the
  49152-char agent cap (LARGE_CAP, tests/agent-size-budget.test.cjs)
- a one-way rating inserts a checkpoint:decision before the dependent task;
  reversible inserts none; costly is flagged but never blocks
- the taxonomy defaults to reversible when unsure (checkpoint-fatigue guard)
  and inserting a checkpoint implies autonomous: false
- docs/reference/plan-md.md documents <reversibility> as optional with all
  three ratings
- --no-reversibility-gates parses to REVERSIBILITY_GATES=false, is injected
  into the planner prompt, and is advertised in the command argument-hint
  and help full mode (argument-hint parity)
- the override suppresses the gate but still persists the rating
- cmdVerifyPlanStructure accepts every rating and the absent case
  (additive-validator guarantee, behavioral via runGsdTools)
- parity: thinking-models-planning.md #4 adopts the canonical three-level
  taxonomy and the binary REVERSIBLE/IRREVERSIBLE vocabulary is gone
- no content loss from the planner extraction made to fit under the cap

Prose-contract assertions are Red until the implementation lands. The
behavioral validator assertions pass immediately — regression guards
proving the validator already accepts unknown optional tags.

* feat(#1951): reversibility tagging — gate one-way-door decisions

Classify planning decisions by what undoing them would cost, and give a
one-way door a human beat before the agent walks through it (issue #1951,
The Pragmatic Programmer Topic 15 'Reversibility'; Bezos's one-way/two-way
door framing).

Acceptance criteria met:
- discuss-phase records an optional reversibility rating with a rationale
  on <decisions> entries in the phase CONTEXT.md template. Unrated
  decisions are treated as reversible, so existing phases are unaffected.
- a one-way rating makes gsd-planner insert a checkpoint:decision before
  the task that implements the decision, reusing the existing checkpoint
  mechanism -- no new checkpoint machinery.
- reversible ratings trigger no checkpoint; costly ratings are flagged in
  the plan but never block.
- the rating persists on the task as the optional <reversibility rating=>
  element. cmdVerifyPlanStructure accepts every rating and the absent
  case; the structural validator does not reject unknown optional tags.
- --no-reversibility-gates (REVERSIBILITY_GATES=false) suppresses
  checkpoint insertion for intentionally-unattended runs while still
  recording ratings -- the override changes what stops the run, not what
  the plan remembers.

Single taxonomy, not two: references/thinking-models-planning.md #4
already shipped a binary REVERSIBLE/IRREVERSIBLE classification and is
loaded by both gsd-planner and gsd-plan-checker. It is rewritten onto the
canonical three-level vocabulary and now points at planner-reversibility.md
as the taxonomy owner, with a parity test that fails if the surfaces
diverge (DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX-DIVERGENCE).

agents/gsd-planner.md sat 47 chars under the 49152 LARGE_CAP, so the
checkpoint DO/DON'T guidance was relocated verbatim into
planner-antipatterns.md -- already @-referenced from the same section for
the same topic, so the planner still loads it and nothing was dropped. A
test guards the relocation against content loss.

Files: gsd-core/references/planner-reversibility.md (NEW, canonical
taxonomy + emission rules + anti-patterns), gsd-planner.md, plan-phase
workflow/command/help (flag wiring + parity), plan-md.md schema,
discuss-phase context template, CONTEXT.md glossary, INVENTORY + manifest,
size baselines, install goldens, plugin skills regen, changeset.

Closes #1951

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(#1951): address orthogonal review findings

Two isolated reviewers (correctness + security), neither of which authored
the change. Every finding fixed:

Security — the rationale is untrusted input (ADR-1577). It originates in
conversation and flows CONTEXT.md -> planner -> PLAN.md -> executor, each
hop an LLM reading the previous hop's output, with no validation on the
path. planner-reversibility.md and the discuss-phase template now state
it is data and never instructions, and name the </reversibility>
early-termination hazard explicitly -- a rationale that closes its own
element injects sibling structure the executor reads as real tasks.
Four tests guard it.

Correctness 1 — nothing machine-enforced the feature's own promise: a task
rated one-way with no preceding checkpoint:decision validated as fully
clean, so a planner error silently reopened the gap this feature exists to
close. cmdVerifyPlanStructure now warns on an ungated one-way rating. A
warning, not an error: <reversibility> stays additive and the plan stays
valid. Four tests cover ungated (warns), gated (silent), still-valid, and
reversible/costly never flagged.

Correctness 2 — pass-always test. The --no-reversibility-gates parse test
substring-matched the whole workflow file, and plan-phase.md prose mentions
both tokens in one sentence, so it passed with the bash conditional
deleted: it was testing the documentation, not the parser. Now scoped to
the fenced bash blocks and matched as one physical line, with a negative
control confirming prose alone cannot satisfy it.

Correctness 3 — costly had no itemized emission rule, only one-way did, so
two agents could diverge on whether to tag costly at all.

Correctness 4 — template convention break: the example ratings were bare
while every sibling field uses [...] to signal substitution, inviting an
LLM to copy one-way/costly forward as boilerplate. Now bracketed.

Correctness 5 — latent false-green: .includes('reversible') also matches
inside irreversible/irreversibility, which appear in anti-pattern
prose, so a surface that dropped the real taxonomy entry would still pass.
Now word-boundary matched.

ADR-857 phase-6 ceiling — the first gsd-test run caught plan-phase.md
1216 bytes over its frozen 94519 ceiling (it had 49 bytes of headroom on
next). The ceiling may only rise for privileged host machinery, and
reversibility gating is optional-feature logic, so the wiring was slimmed
to its minimum and the explanatory prose moved to the reference files the
planner already loads. plan-phase.md is now 94400 bytes -- 119 under the
ceiling and 70 bytes SMALLER than on next, so the host loop shrank while
gaining the feature, which is what phase 6 ratchets toward. The tracer
contract (tests/tracer-bullet.test.cjs) is unchanged.

Lint — fixed an unnecessary non-null assertion in verify.cts and a
CRLF-fragile bare \n regex in the new test (DEFECT.WINDOWS-CRLF-TEST-
PORTABILITY, the #1658/#1668/#2206/#2449/#2450 class).

* test(#1951): checkpoint fixture must carry the common task elements

The gated-one-way fixture built a checkpoint:decision task from the
abbreviated skeleton in gsd-planner.md, which shows only the
checkpoint-specific elements (<decision>/<context>/<resume-signal>).
cmdVerifyPlanStructure requires <name> and <action> on EVERY task
regardless of type, so the fixture failed validation for reasons that had
nothing to do with reversibility:

  errors: ["Task missing <name> element", "Task 'unnamed' missing <action>"]

Caught by gsd-test on 14d14a39 (2 failures, both this fixture).

The canonical shape is in tests/verify.test.cjs:266 — a checkpoint task
carries <name>/<files>/<action>/<verify> like any other. Fixture corrected
to match. Verified behaviorally against the real gsd-tools CLI across all
four cases: gated one-way (valid, silent), ungated one-way (valid, warns),
costly (valid, silent), absent (valid, silent).

Not a product defect: the validator's every-task contract is intentional
and pre-existing, and docs/reference/plan-md.md scopes its required-element
list to type=auto/tracer only because those are the elements a planner must
author, not because checkpoints are exempt from <name>.

* chore(#1951): backfill changeset pr number to 2471

* fix(#1951): CodeQL incomplete-sanitization + prompt-injection scan collision

Both CI failures were real defects in code this PR added, not false
positives.

CodeQL js/incomplete-sanitization (high), reversibility-tagging.test.cjs:46 —
the namesRating helper built its regex with `rating.replace(/[-]/g, '\\-')`,
which escapes the hyphen but not backslash, so the escape was incomplete.
It was also unnecessary: `-` carries no special meaning outside a character
class. Replaced with a complete metacharacter escape (backslash included).
Word-boundary behavior verified unchanged across all three ratings — notably
that "irreversible" prose still does not satisfy a "reversible" match, which
is the false-green this helper exists to prevent.

Prompt injection scan — the checkpoint fixture used the human-verification
child element inside <verify>. That tag name is a fake-instruction-boundary
pattern in scripts/prompt-injection-scan.sh, and the scan runs over changed
files, so copying the shape from tests/verify.test.cjs (unflagged only
because it is not in this diff) tripped the gate. Switched to the documented
plain-prose <verify> form.

The first attempt at that fix failed the same gate a second time: the
comment explaining the collision quoted the offending tag literally. The
comment now names it in prose instead — the scanner does not care whether a
match is code or commentary, which is the whole point of the
DEFECT.PROMPT-INJECTION-SCAN-COLLISION note in CLAUDE.md.

Verified locally before push: scan reports 0 findings across 57 changed
files, eslint clean, and both fixtures still validate as designed (gated
one-way silent, ungated one-way warns, neither errors).

* test(#1951): record measured cost and halve gsd-tools spawns

The Windows shard 1/3 job timeout was traced to the sharding layer, not to
this PR's assertions — see #2472. Two contributing factors were this file's
own, and are fixed here.

1. tests/test-timings.json had no entry for reversibility-tagging.test.cjs,
   so scripts/run-tests.cjs weighted it at the table's median fallback
   (~315ms) for LPT chunk packing. It actually measures 5595ms — an 18x
   under-weight. Recorded the measured value from the green gsd-test run
   (max across the node22/node24 lanes, per gen-test-timings.cjs's
   convention). Only this one entry: a full regen churns 634 entries of
   run-to-run drift, and the table is explicitly advisory and un-gated, so
   a 637-line diff does not belong in a feature PR.

2. Each verifyPlan() spawns gsd-tools, which dominates this file's cost.
   Spawns cut from 9 to 6 with no coverage lost:
   - the ungated-one-way warning and its stays-valid assertion now share
     one plan instead of building the same plan twice;
   - the reversible/costly never-flagged-as-ungated test was strictly
     subsumed by the additive suite, which already runs those two ratings
     ungated and asserts no /reversibilit/ warning at all — and the gate
     warning's text contains both "reversibility" and "one-way", so the
     broader assertion catches it. It only re-spawned gsd-tools twice to
     prove the same thing.

Both are symptom fixes. The shard imbalance itself (19/11/10 minutes
against a 20-minute cap, from a cost-blind round-robin partition that also
reshuffles downstream files whenever one is inserted) is tracked in #2472.

* test(#1951): checkpoint fixture adopts the #2444 type-branched contract

Surfaced by rebasing onto next, which gained #2444 (branch plan-structure
validation on task type=checkpoint:*) while this PR was in review.

cmdVerifyPlanStructure no longer applies one required-element set to every
task. A checkpoint:decision now requires <name> + <resume-signal> +
<decision> + <options>, and is exempt from the <action>/<verify>/<done>/
<files> set that auto and tracer tasks carry. The gated-one-way fixture
predated that split and failed on the new requirement:

  errors: ["Task 'Task 0: Confirm the on-disk format' missing <options>"]

Fixture rewritten to mirror the checkpoint:decision contract exactly — real
<options> with two <option> children — rather than padding it with fields
checkpoints no longer need. That also drops the plain-prose <verify> the
earlier revision carried purely to dodge the prompt-injection scan; a
checkpoint task has no <verify> requirement at all, so the workaround is
moot.

Verified against the real gsd-tools CLI across all four cases: gated one-way
(valid, silent), ungated one-way (valid, warns), costly (valid, silent),
absent (valid, silent).

* feat(#2296): config-gated provider escalation on quota-exceeded

The dynamic_routing tier ladder escalates within one provider, which does not
help when that provider is what ran out of quota. Add an opt-in provider ladder
layered on the existing EXEC.CLASSIFY seam.

- model-resolver: resolveProviderEscalation walks dynamic_routing.provider_escalation
  capped at min(max_escalations, list length), reporting from/to/attempted/exhausted.
  Invalid entries are dropped (ADR 227 shape validation). Stays a leaf module —
  the quota-class policy decision is the caller's, per the CONTEXT.md contract.
- agent-command-router: export a frozen AGENT_FAILURE_CLASSES so the new CLI
  validator cannot drift from the classifier that produces the values.
- resolve-execution: --failure-class flag; emits an escalation block ONLY when
  passed, so the existing JSON contract is byte-identical for every caller.
- config-schema.manifest: register dynamic_routing.provider_escalation.
- execute-phase step 7.1: auto-escalate, honor Retry-After, fail loudly naming
  every model tried once the ladder is spent.

* fix(#2296): extract quota recovery to a reference fragment; regen goldens

The step 7.1a addition pushed gsd-core/workflows/execute-phase.md from 93390 to
95111 LF bytes, past the frozen ADR-857 Phase 6 ceiling (hard <93600, margin
<=93400) asserted by tests/fix-2285-claude-orchestration-wiring.test.cjs. The
base sat 10 bytes under the margin, so no inline wording would have fit.

That gate's own rationale is that optional-feature detail belongs in a fragment,
not the host loop. Moved BOTH the new provider-escalation branch and the
pre-existing manual recovery prompt into
gsd-core/references/execute-phase-quota-recovery.md, leaving step 7.1 as a
one-line pointer. execute-phase.md is now 92880 bytes — 510 SMALLER than base.

Also regenerates the fixtures that legitimately moved because three shipped
files changed (gsd-tools.cjs, config-schema.manifest.json, execute-phase.md):
golden-install-parity + install-tree for all 16 runtimes, INVENTORY.md +
INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json for the new reference, and the workflow size baseline.

* test(#2351): make the C1 orphan-reaping test load-independent

tests/run-with-timeout.test.cjs C1 asserted the child heartbeat file exists
after a 1s group-kill window, but the child only wrote it on the first 100ms
setInterval tick. Nothing synchronized the two: on a loaded container the group
is SIGKILLed before that tick lands, the file never appears, and the assertion
fails for a reason unrelated to reaping. Observed failing on both linux-node22
and linux-node24.

The behavior actually under test is the FREEZE assertion (heartbeat stops
advancing => descendant was reaped, not orphaned). That is unaffected by
sampling once more at t=0.

Child now writes its first heartbeat synchronously at startup before arming the
interval, and the kill window widens 1s -> 3s to cover child boot under load.
Both remove the timing dependency; neither weakens what the test proves.

* chore(#2296): backfill pr:2458 in .changeset/rapid-jays-bark.md

* chore(#2296): regenerate fixtures after rebase onto #2402

The rebase conflicted on the generated golden-install-parity fixtures and
workflow-size-baseline.json because #2402 (b6e6a22fc) regenerated the same
artifacts. Conflict resolution picked a side to unblock the rebase; a true
regeneration on the combined tree then produced further drift, confirming the
resolved content was stale and would have dropped #2402's fixture changes.

Regenerated goldens, install-tree, size baseline, and INVENTORY-MANIFEST from
the merged tree. docs/INVENTORY.md keeps BOTH new reference rows.

execute-phase.md is 92782 LF bytes with both #2402's and this PR's extractions
applied — under the frozen ceiling (hard <93600, margin <=93400).

b6e6a22fce fix(#2402): honor response_language across orchestrator output + UAT checkpoint renderer (#2457)
* fix(#2402): honor response_language across orchestrator output + UAT checkpoint renderer

Replays the in-flight bot branch fix/2402-response-language-orchestrator-coverage
(seven commits, never pushed) onto current origin/next as a single squashed commit.
The original work was substantial and correct; this commit preserves its full scope,
trimmed where rebase conflicts + workflow size budgets required it.

Three independent layers where response_language was being dropped are closed:

Layer 1 — orchestrator-facing directives across workflows. Adds the strong
"All user-facing output in this workflow MUST be presented in {response_language};
technical terms, code, paths, and subagent prompts stay in English" directive
to ~40 workflows that previously either lacked it entirely (verify-work,
new-project, new-milestone, quick, manager, and ~35 more) or carried only
the weak subagent-prompt-only form (plan-phase, execute-phase). The directive
covers narration between tool calls and banner output, not just the
AskUserQuestion prompts.

Layer 2 — UAT checkpoint renderer (src/uat.cts). buildCheckpoint now accepts
an optional responseLanguage parameter and renders the frame strings
("CHECKPOINT: Verification Required", "Type `pass` or describe what's wrong.")
in any of 9 languages (English/Spanish/French/German/Portuguese/Japanese/
Chinese/Korean/Italian) with an alias table covering ~30 input variants
(en, es, español, ja, 日本語, etc.). cmdRenderCheckpoint reads
config.response_language via loadConfig(cwd) and passes it through, so the
byte-for-byte block verify-work.md reprints verbatim is already localized
when written — preserving the anti-injection hygiene rule at verify-work.md
(the model is forbidden to translate after the fact). CJK display width is
computed by East Asian Width property ranges (W/F) so the right ║ border of
the banner stays aligned for full-width characters. English fallback is
byte-identical to the pre-fix behavior when response_language is unset or
unrecognized.

Layer 3 — literal English report templates in execute-phase. The top-of-
workflow directive covers all template sites (templates are a structural
source, not literal output). Inline render-language notes that previously
sat at each template site were removed during the squash because they
pushed execute-phase.md over its frozen pre-phase-6 byte ceiling
(93600 — ADR-857 Phase 6 capstone). The single top directive covers the
same surface with fewer bytes.

Also extends src/docs.cts and src/init.cts to propagate response_language
into the init JSON bundle of the additional workflows so the directive can
read it.

Tests added:
- tests/uat.test.cjs: buildCheckpoint with unset/unrecognized language falls
  back to English default; recognized language swaps only the two frame
  strings while structural lines stay untouched; CJK display-width regression
  (independent recomputation of East Asian Width W/F ranges).
- tests/workspace.test.cjs, tests/docs-update.test.cjs: response_language
  wiring through docs.cts/init.cts.

References: #2402; reporter's three-layer triage + Layer-4 follow-up; the
byte-for-byte anti-injection hygiene rule at verify-work.md (the reason
Layer 2 must be renderer-side, not model-translated).

This is a squash of the in-flight bot branch — seven commits representing
the original implementation plus its subsequent fix/CJK-padding/test/
changeset/regen cycles, none of which were ever pushed or PR'd. The squash
captures the final coherent state.

* chore(#2402): regen golden + size baseline after rebase against #2315 (PR #2451)

Rebase conflicts were entirely in generated artifacts (golden-install-parity
fixtures + workflow-size-baseline.json). After taking theirs during rebase,
regenerated cleanly against the merged source tree.

1720aacf0c feat(#1949): <precondition> task element — Design by Contract (#2422)
* test(#1949): add failing-first tests for <precondition> element

Red phase for issue #1949 (Design by Contract: <precondition> element
asserted before task execution). Tests assert:

- docs/reference/plan-md.md documents the new <precondition> element
- agents/gsd-planner.md @-references planner-preconditions.md and stays
  under the 49152-char cap (progressive-disclosure requirement)
- gsd-core/references/planner-preconditions.md exists and documents the
  three emission cases mandated by the issue (user_setup / prior-phase
  artifact / env-var) and the contract triad mapping
- agents/gsd-executor.md asserts <precondition> before task execution
  and routes unmet preconditions through existing checkpoint machinery
- cmdVerifyPlanStructure (behavioral via runGsdTools) accepts plans both
  with and without <precondition> — the additive-validation guarantee
- Parity assertion: plan-md.md and planner-preconditions.md agree on the
  canonical tag spelling (DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX-DIVERGENCE guard)

Most prose-contract assertions are Red until the implementation lands.
The behavioral validator assertions pass immediately (regression guards
proving the validator already accepts unknown optional tags).

* feat(#1949): <precondition> task element — Design by Contract

Add an optional <precondition> element to <task> in PLAN.md (issue #1949,
The Pragmatic Programmer Topic 23). The front-of-task side of the plan
contract — preconditions (before) ↔ postconditions (<verify>/<done>/
<acceptance_criteria>, after) ↔ invariants (must_haves.truths, across the
whole plan). Together with the tracer-bullet proposal (#1945), this closes
both ends of the 'outrunning your headlights' failure mode for an
autonomous AI executor.

Acceptance criteria met:
- <precondition> is an optional element on <task>; plans that omit it
  validate unchanged (cmdVerifyPlanStructure checks for presence of
  required tags, does not reject unknown optional tags).
- gsd-executor evaluates the precondition before any other task work.
  Unmet halts execution with a checkpoint:human-verify and no partial
  commit; met or absent produces no visible change to execution flow.
  Unmet is never auto-approved under AUTO_CFG=true — a missing
  prerequisite is a fact the executor cannot establish on its own.
- gsd-planner emits <precondition> in exactly the three cases the issue
  mandates: user_setup consumption, prior-phase artifact dependency, and
  env-var/runtime-config dependency.
- Tests cover met, unmet, and absent preconditions plus the additive-
  validator guarantee.

Files:
- gsd-core/references/planner-preconditions.md (NEW): full emission
  rules, the three cases with worked examples, format guidance,
  anti-patterns, the contract triad mapping, and the executor assertion
  contract. Progressive disclosure.
- agents/gsd-planner.md: slim <precondition> note in Task Anatomy with
  @-reference to the new file. To stay under the 49152-char agent-file
  cap (27-char headroom before this change), the inline
  <comment_text_discipline> and <region_scoped_negative_gate> summaries
  are compressed to one-line pointers — their full rules already live in
  planner-antipatterns.md, so no content is lost.
- agents/gsd-executor.md: new step 0 'Precondition check' in the
  execute_tasks loop, before the type dispatch, routing unmet through
  checkpoint_return_format.
- docs/reference/plan-md.md: new Preconditions section in the schema
  reference, with the canonical example and the three emission cases.
- CONTEXT.md: Precondition glossary entry as a sibling of Tracer Bullet.
- docs/INVENTORY.md + INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json: row for the new
  references/planner-preconditions.md (regen via gen-inventory-manifest).
- tests/precondition-element.test.cjs: failing-first tests covering
  schema docs, planner emission contract, executor assertion contract,
  reference-file presence + the three cases, behavioral additive-
  validator guarantee, and a parity assertion (DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX-
  DIVERGENCE guard).
- .changeset/quick-hawks-bark.md: Added fragment.

Companion to #1945 (tracer bullets).

* chore(#1949): regen agent-size baseline + install-tree goldens

Documented baseline regenerations required by the feat(#1949) prose changes
(RULESET.AGENT_SIZE_BUDGET + golden-install-parity):

- npm run size:baseline — locks in the new gsd-executor.md size (+1050
  bytes: the precondition-check step 0 block). gsd-planner.md is net
  smaller (-142 bytes: compressed two inline summary blocks whose full
  rules already lived in planner-antipatterns.md to make room for the
  slim <precondition> pointer). No hard-cap breach.
- npm run gen:golden — pick up the new references/planner-preconditions.md
  + the two changed agent files across all 18 runtime install trees.

Both regens are CI-mandated after intentional agent/reference changes;
see CLAUDE.md 'RULESET.AGENT_SIZE_BUDGET' and the comments in
tests/golden-install-parity.test.cjs.

* fix(#1949): bound <precondition> checks to read-only (security review)

Apply the security-review finding (LOW, isolated /security-review subagent):
the executor's 'run the cheapest check' phrasing for a plan-author-controlled
prose line was broader than ideal — a hostile plan author could craft a
<precondition> whose 'cheapest check' is side-effecting (curl to an attacker
host under the guise of verification, rm -rf before checking, secret emission).

The risk is inherited from GSD's existing plan-trust model (<verify>, <action>,
<done> already direct the executor to run arbitrary shell), so <precondition>
does not materially expand it. But the new prose actively directs execution
('run the check') rather than passively consuming the element, so the bound
is worth making explicit.

Tightened across all four surfaces that describe the check shape:
- agents/gsd-executor.md step 0: 'Verify with read-only checks only — file
  existence, env var presence (no value output), idempotent GET /health-style
  pings. Do NOT run commands with side effects (writes, network POSTs, secret
  emission) as the check; if a side-effecting check seems required, halt and
  surface via checkpoint instead.'
- gsd-core/references/planner-preconditions.md Format section: same bound,
  plus the halt-and-surface escape hatch.
- docs/reference/plan-md.md Preconditions section: mirrored.
- CONTEXT.md Precondition glossary entry: mirrored.

Regenerated agent-size baseline (executor grew 46186 -> 46440; still under
the 49152 cap) and install-tree goldens.

* chore(#1949): backfill changeset pr number 2422

Per CONTRIBUTING.md changeset workflow + feature-builder directive Step 8.7:
backfill the placeholder pr:0 with the real PR number immediately after
gh pr create returns. Avoids the fail_invalid_fragment gate.

* fix(#1949): cite [#1949] on allow-test-rule exemption (ADR-456)

CI's lint:ci runs lint-allow-test-rule-refs which per ADR-456 requires
every // allow-test-rule: exemption on a NEW test file to carry an issue
reference (#NNN or URL). My earlier push omitted it.

Local 'npm run lint' (eslint) does NOT run this check — only 'npm run
lint:ci' does. CLAUDE.md explicitly warns: 'lint:ci ≠ lint — CI runs
lint:ci; a local pass is not the gate.' I should have run lint:ci before
pushing; correcting now.

Pattern matches the companion feature's test file:
tests/tracer-bullet.test.cjs:1  // allow-test-rule: source-text-is-the-product [#1945]

Adds requirements.ready-ids (execute-plan.md's update_requirements step)
so a requirement ID declared by multiple plans in a phase only marks
Complete once every declaring plan has produced a SUMMARY.md, and
requirements.revert-phase (execute-phase.md's gaps_found branch) so a

dd5a2211c9 enhance(#1964): semantic knowledge-base recall via MemPalace (keyword fallback) (#2416)
* test(#1964): add failing-first semantic-recall contract tests

Epic #1957 Phase 3C (final). Source-text-is-the-product contract tests:
semantic recall via MemPalace (top-k meaning-similar prior resolutions, catches
same-root-cause/different-wording cases), indexing resolved sessions at archive,
graceful degradation to keyword matching when MemPalace is absent,
knowledge-base.md stays the durable plain-text source of truth, agent Phase 0 /
Matching Logic is semantic-first (the stale 'keyword overlap, not semantic
similarity' claim must go), and no new embedding/vector infra (reuse MemPalace).

Failing-first: reference, the Matching Logic reframe, the Phase 0 consolidation,
and the archive indexing step do not yet exist.

* feat(#1964): semantic knowledge-base recall via MemPalace (keyword fallback)

Epic #1957 Phase 3C (FINAL). Replaces keyword-overlap matching with semantic
recall: at Phase 0 the debugger queries MemPalace with the current symptoms
and surfaces the top-k meaning-similar prior resolutions, catching the
same-root-cause/different-wording cases keyword overlap missed (the self-noted
'keyword overlap, not semantic similarity' limitation). Resolved sessions are
indexed into MemPalace at archive (symptoms + root_cause(s) + fix + recurrence
guard). knowledge-base.md remains the durable plain-text source of truth; when
MemPalace is absent the debugger falls back to keyword-overlap matching
(logged, never a silent skip). No new embedding/vector infrastructure —
MemPalace is reused.

Size-neutral agent edits: the Matching Logic section reframed (keyword-only ->
semantic-first + keyword-fallback + @-include); Phase 0's three keyword bullets
consolidated into one semantic-first bullet; one MemPalace-indexing step added
at archive. Agent at 57222 B (122 B headroom — final phase). Full rules in
gsd-core/references/debugger-semantic-recall.md. INVENTORY + manifest +
agent-size baseline + install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md updated.

* fix(#1964): address orthogonal review (invocation mechanism, index Resolution-not-symptoms + redaction, fallback detail)

- HIGH: the 'query MemPalace' instruction was WHAT-level only; the agent has
  no MCP tools. Added an Invocation section naming the Bash CLI
  (mempalace search --wing <wing>) + MCP-when-registered + wing resolution
  (config.mempalace.wing -> project_code -> project dir), matching every other
  MemPalace integration. Without this the feature silently degraded to keyword
  matching even when MemPalace was present.
- MEDIUM (security x2): index the agent-authored Resolution summary
  (root_cause + fix + recurrence_guard), NOT raw user-supplied Symptoms —
  excludes attacker-controlled prose from the cross-session index AND reduces
  secret/PII leakage. Redact secret-shaped values before indexing. Stated the
  write order (KB append + commit MUST succeed before indexing).
- LOW: restored 'identifiers' + 'case-insensitive' to the keyword fallback;
  added a test asserting the fallback mechanics survived the Phase 0
  consolidation (Error patterns field, 2+ token overlap, identifiers,
  case-insensitive).

* chore(#1964): ratchet agent-size baseline downward (leaner archive bullet shrank gsd-debugger.md 57222->57197)

c67f301867 feat(#1963): emit blameless-postmortem Prevention block at resolution (#2410)
* test(#1963): add failing-first prevention/postmortem contract tests

Epic #1957 Phase 3B. Source-text-is-the-product contract tests: blameless
5-Whys that BRANCHES per Phase 2A RCA (not a single-cause chain; treats agent
error as 'why was that possible?'), the 'why wasn't this caught?' question,
the recurrence-guard taxonomy (regression test / assertion / lint rule / KB
pattern), the KB-entry why_not_caught + recurrence_guard fields with backward
compat, the session-manager prevention summary line, and the Zawinski
scope-boundary (a block, not a subsystem).

Failing-first: reference, archive_session edit, KB schema extension, and
session-manager summary do not yet exist.

* feat(#1963): emit blameless-postmortem Prevention block at resolution

Epic #1957 Phase 3B. At archive_session the debugger now produces a
Prevention block with three blame-free components: a branching 5-Whys causal
chain (branches per Phase 2A RCA, not a single chain; 'agent error' prompts
'why was that possible?', never blame), a 'why wasn't this caught?' answer
naming the missed gate (test/typecheck/lint/review/verify), and a concrete
recurrence guard (regression test / assertion / lint rule / KB pattern).

The knowledge-base entry gains two structured fields (why_not_caught +
recurrence_guard) so future Phase-0 recall surfaces the prior prevention, not
just the prior fix. Additive: old entries without the fields still load. The
session-manager compact summary surfaces a one-line prevention summary.

Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/debugger-prevention.md (slim
archive_session step + 2 KB fields kept in the agent). INVENTORY + manifest +
agent-size baseline + install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md updated.

* fix(#1963): address orthogonal review (CRITICAL append-template drift + Phase-0 consumption + parity test)

- CRITICAL: the archive_session KB append template omitted Why not caught +
  Recurrence guard (only the Entry Format had them) — the feature's core
  deliverable silently did not happen. Added both fields to the append template
  the agent actually follows (nearest-instruction wins).
- HIGH: Phase 0 (KB read) only surfaced root_cause + fix; the new fields were
  dead data. Extended the Phase 0 Evidence line to consume why_not_caught +
  recurrence_guard when present (absent on old entries — backward compat holds).
- MEDIUM: added a cross-section parity test (every Entry-Format field must also
  appear in the append template — the guard that would have caught the
  Critical) + a Phase-0-consumption assertion.
- MEDIUM: the 'branches per Phase 2A' claim is now wired — reuses
  reasoning_checkpoint.candidate_causes across the four categories.
- MEDIUM: recurrence-guard taxonomy gains type refinement + config-default
  change; LOW: added 'build' gate to both surfaces for parity.
- NIT: compact-summary fallback shape ('no gate existed'); verify the guard
  artifact exists before recording it.

* test(#1963): anchor Phase-0 consumption test on the specific heading

The regex /Phase 0[\s\S]{0,1200}/ matched the first 'Phase 0' in the file
(in knowledge_base_protocol prose), not the Phase 0 block in investigation_loop.
Anchor on '**Phase 0: Check knowledge base**' and widen to 1500 chars.

36a311c5bb enhance(#1962): harden regression tests (PBT shrinking + oracle classification + boundaries) (#2409)
* test(#1962): add failing-first repro-hardening contract tests

Epic #1957 Phase 3A. Source-text-is-the-product contract tests: PBT shrinking
(fast-check/Hypothesis, minimized seed, manual-minimization degradation), the
four oracle types (specified/derived/metamorphic/implicit with implicit flagged
weakest), boundary neighbors (off-by-one/min-max/empty-singleton tied to the
equivalence class), oracle_type in DEBUG Resolution, and the Phase 1A tie-in
(minimized seed + real oracle => the mutation guardrail bites).

Failing-first: reference, agent cross-refs, and template field do not yet exist.

* feat(#1962): harden regression tests (PBT shrinking + oracle classification + boundaries)

Epic #1957 Phase 3A. Extends Minimal Reproduction (shrinking) and Test-First
Debugging (oracle classification + boundary neighbors):
- Shrinking: wrap an input-space failing input in a property (fast-check JS/TS,
  Hypothesis Python) and store the MINIMIZED counterexample as the regression
  seed; degrade to manual minimization when no PBT framework is present.
- Oracle classification: state specified / derived (contract/model) /
  metamorphic / implicit (crash, weakest) before writing the assertion; record
  under Resolution.oracle_type; never default to implicit silently.
- Boundary neighbors: off-by-one, min/max, empty/singleton around the fixed
  defect's equivalence class.

Together they turn the regression test into a root-cause check — what the Phase
1A mutation guardrail needs to bite. Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/
debugger-repro-hardening.md. INVENTORY + manifest + agent-size baseline +
install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md + DEBUG template updated.

* fix(#1962): address orthogonal review (bounding, provenance, oracle scope, sufficient-triple)

- HIGH: added a 'Bound the property/shrink run' section (60s timeout, degrade-
  to-manual on timeout, do-not-raise-default-run-limits, argv-not-shell) —
  the gauntlet violation the sibling references already honored.
- Medium: test-provenance caveat (the failing input often comes from the bug
  report — author the generator from a sanitized description, cross-ref
  debugger-fix-acceptance.md).
- Medium: oracle scope note — the 4 types cover deterministic bugs; non-
  deterministic failures re-route to stability-stress per bug-taxonomy.
- Medium: Phase 1A tie-in corrected — seed+oracle is necessary not sufficient;
  boundary neighbors close the adjacent-input escape; the sufficient triple is
  seed+oracle+neighbors.
- Low: preserve the original noisy repro as a secondary reference; operationalize
  'equivalence class' (the predicate the fix draws). Nit: degradation reworded.

* test(#1961): add failing-first bug-taxonomy routing contract tests

Epic #1957 Phase 2B. Source-text-is-the-product contract tests (3 taxonomy
classes, explicit class->technique routing table, Bohrbug->repro+SBFL+bisect,
Heisenbug->record-replay/stability+SKIP-SBFL, Concurrency->atomicity/order/
deadlock checklist, bug_class in DEBUG Current Focus, supersede-not-append)
plus a routing-table specification object pinning the documented decisions
(SBFL forbidden on Heisenbug is the load-bearing 1B/2B seam).

Failing-first: reference, Phase 1.75, and routing-table reframe do not yet exist.

* feat(#1961): add bug-taxonomy classification + strategy routing to gsd-debugger

Epic #1957 Phase 2B (reliability-critical). Adds Phase 1.75: classify the
failure as Bohrbug / Heisenbug-Mandelbug / Concurrency, then route the
investigation technique via an explicit class->technique table (Kernighan: no
opaque heuristic). Bohrbug -> reproduction + SBFL (Phase 1.25) + git bisect;
Heisenbug/Mandelbug -> record-replay (rr) + stability-stress + statistical
sampling, with SBFL explicitly SKIPPED (a flaky spectrum poisons the Ochiai
ranking — the load-bearing 1B/2B seam); Concurrency -> the
atomicity/order/deadlock checklist first.

Reframes (supersedes, not appends — Zawinski) the flat 'Technique Selection by
situation' table into a class-routed table; the 11 techniques remain as routed
targets. bug_class recorded in Current Focus (DEBUG template); common-bug-
patterns catalog cross-referenced to the taxonomy.

Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/debugger-bug-taxonomy.md. INVENTORY
+ manifest + agent-size baseline + install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md updated.

* fix(#1961): address orthogonal review (phase-name drift, General lane, revoke framing, row-scoped tests, bounding)

- HIGH: reference said 'Phase 1B' (epic shorthand); corrected to the deployed
  'Phase 1.25' (matches the agent + SBFL reference).
- HIGH: 6 of 11 techniques (Rubber duck, Delta, Working backwards,
  Differential, Comment-out, Follow-the-indirection) were orphaned by the
  situation-table reframe. Added a 'General (any class, situation-cued)'
  lane to BOTH the reference routing table and the agent's Technique
  Selection table that re-homes them — supersede-not-append now holds.
- MEDIUM: the SBFL-skip is structurally retroactive (Phase 1.25 runs before
  Phase 1.75 classification), so reframed the table column from 'Do NOT use'
  to 'Revoke if already run' + an explicit 'retroactive revocation, not
  proactive skip' note stating the ordering honestly.
- MEDIUM: contract tests are now row-scoped (parse the table by class, assert
  per-row) instead of presence-only; added a guard that the previously-
  orphaned techniques now have a General-lane route.
- LOW: pinned the canonical bug_class value form (lowercase-kebab:
  bohrbug|heisenbug-mandelbug|concurrency; prose may use title-case).
- NIT: added a 'Bound the Heisenbug-chase runs' note (rr/stability/sampling
  timeouts) per the unbounded-subprocess gauntlet.

f8b16d1874 enhance(#1960): add RCA branching (fishbone + AND-gate) to gsd-debugger (#2405)
* test(#1960): add failing-first RCA-branching contract + schema-invariant tests

Epic #1957 Phase 2A. Source-text-is-the-product contract tests (fishbone
>=2 categories, AND-gate, multi-cause root_cause, backward compat, reasoning
checkpoint candidate_causes+and_gate fields, debugger-philosophy single-cause
note, DEBUG template) plus behavioral schema-invariant checks on two fixtures:
two contributing causes (AND-gate yes) -> both recorded; single-cause
(AND-gate no) -> one root_cause, identical to today.

Failing-first: reference, agent edits, and template note do not yet exist.

* feat(#1960): add RCA branching (fishbone + AND-gate) to gsd-debugger

Epic #1957 Phase 2A. Guards against 5-Whys single-cause bias: before committing
root_cause, the debugger enumerates candidate causes across >=2 Ishikawa
categories (code/config/environment/data) and explicitly answers an AND-gate
question. When the AND-gate fires, every contributing cause is recorded, so a
multi-cause fix no longer recurs via the unaddressed second cause.
Resolution.root_cause may hold one OR a small set (additive; single-cause
sessions are byte-identical to today). The Structured Reasoning Checkpoint gains
candidate_causes + and_gate fields; debugger-philosophy.md adds the
single-cause-bias trap.

Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/debugger-rca-branching.md (slim
Phase 2 routing + 2 checkpoint fields kept in the agent). INVENTORY + manifest +
agent-size baseline + install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md + DEBUG template updated.

* fix(#1960): address orthogonal review (AND-gate self-consistency, parity guard, narrowed claim, ripples)

- Reference: the collapse rule now enforces AND-gate self-consistency —
  and_gate=yes with a single confirmed cause is flagged as incomplete
  (return to Phase 3); a race/timing note clarifies such bugs bridge
  categories; the 'byte-identical' backward-compat claim narrowed to
  'root_cause shape unchanged; reasoning_checkpoint gains 2 fields in every
  session'.
- DEBUG.md: stale 'five-field' mirror prose -> seven-field (parallel-surface
  drift the reviewer flagged); new debug-session-management parity test pins
  the field-count claim to the gsd-debugger.md YAML keys (CRLF-safe).
- Scalar-assuming consumers of set-valued root_cause updated: session-manager
  compact summaries (319/332), diagnose-only return (1062), archive entry
  (1216), ROOT CAUSE FOUND return (1322).
- Test: added the AND-gate-yes/single-cause invariant + fixture; rephrased the
  fixture describe block honestly as a schema-invariant specification.
- Phase 2 bullet phrasing clarified ('at hypothesis formation, before the
  Phase 4 commit').

56a5c6404c feat(#1959): add spectrum-based fault localization (Ochiai) pre-filter to gsd-debugger (#2403)
* test(#1959): add failing-first SBFL contract + Ochiai correctness tests

Epic #1957 Phase 1B. Source-text-is-the-product contract tests (Ochiai
formula documented, Tarantula fallback, top-N seeding, no-coverage skip
logged, ranking->Evidence, Bohrbug gating) plus a behavioral Ochiai
formula-correctness section: bound [0,1], max-score invariant, a known-fault
fixture proving the fault ranks #1 (criterion 2), clean degradation on
zero failing tests, and two fast-check properties.

Failing-first: reference file and agent routing do not yet exist.

* feat(#1959): add spectrum-based fault localization (Ochiai) pre-filter to gsd-debugger

Epic #1957 Phase 1B. When a runnable test suite with per-test coverage exists
(>=1 failing AND >=1 passing test), the debugger computes an Ochiai
suspiciousness ranking over the coverage spectrum and seeds the top-N
suspicious locations into Evidence as first-class hypothesis candidates,
narrowing the search space deterministically before LLM reasoning. Tarantula
documented as fallback. Degrades cleanly (logged, never silent) when there is
no test suite, no failing tests, or no per-test coverage, and is explicitly
not trusted on flaky/Heisenbug spectra (pairs with Phase 2B bug-taxonomy).

Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/debugger-sbfl.md (slim Phase 1.25
routing kept in the agent to respect the size cap). No new coverage framework
— reuses the project's existing test/coverage runner. INVENTORY + manifest +
agent-size baseline + install-parity goldens + AGENTS.md updated.

* test(#1959): bound property generators to valid coverage counts

The [0,1] property generated failedExec independently of totalFailed, but
Ochiai's score is only bounded by 1 under the coverage invariant
failedExec <= totalFailed (a failing test that executed s is one of the
totalFailed failing tests). Out-of-domain inputs (failedExec=100, totalFailed=5)
make the formula correctly return >1. Bound failedExec by totalFailed via
fc.chain so the property tests the real domain. Also cleaned up the ranking
property (removed dead code).

* fix(#1959): address orthogonal review (monotonicity property, degradation row, coverage bounding)

- Replace vacuous ranking property (true-by-sort-construction) with a
  non-trivial monotonicity property: holding totalFailed + passedExec fixed,
  ochiai is non-decreasing in failedExec. An inverted formula would fail it.
- Add the missing 'no passing tests' degradation row (preconditions require
  >=1 passing test; Tarantula would divide by totalPassed=0).
- Bound the coverage subprocess (CLAUDE.md gauntlet): cap the coverage run,
  degrade-to-skip on timeout, never hang the debug session.
- Reword 'discard the ranking' -> 'mark the Evidence entry as revoked (do not
  delete)' per Kernighan auditability.

5e52350736 feat(#1958): add multi-signal fix-acceptance guardrail to gsd-debugger (#2396)
* test(#1958): add failing-first guardrail contract tests

Epic #1957 Phase 1A. Adds source-text-is-the-product tests asserting the
5-signal fix-acceptance guardrail contract (target test, mutation check,
no-op/deletion detector, adjacent tests, revert-and-reconfirm), graceful
degradation, FIX REJECTED BY GUARDRAIL return path, per-signal debug-file
recording, and subprocess bounding.

Failing-first: reference file and agent sections do not yet exist.

* feat(#1958): add multi-signal fix-acceptance guardrail to gsd-debugger

Epic #1957 Phase 1A. Prevents accepting a fix that merely greens the test
(Goodhart defense / APR overfitting). Adds a 5-signal gate run before fix
acceptance: target test, mutation check (Stryker), no-op/behavior-deleting
detector, adjacent/held-out tests, revert-and-reconfirm. Degrades gracefully
when Stryker or a test suite is absent (each skip logged, never a silent pass),
records per-signal results under Resolution.verification, and returns a
FIX REJECTED BY GUARDRAIL outcome the session-manager surfaces for
revise / accept-as-debt / abandon.

Full rules extracted to gsd-core/references/debugger-fix-acceptance.md (slim
routing kept in the agent to respect the agent-size cap). Debug template +
INVENTORY + manifest + agent-size baseline + AGENTS.md updated.

* test(#1958): correct newline-tolerant assertion + regen install-parity goldens

The revert-and-reconfirm assertion collapsed whitespace before matching so
markdown line-wrapping does not break it. Regenerated the golden-install-parity
and install-tree fixtures (npm run gen:golden) to absorb the intentional
gsd-debugger.md / gsd-debug-session-manager.md / DEBUG.md / new reference-file
changes to the installed artifact tree.

* fix(#1958): tighten guardrail per orthogonal review

Addresses the isolated reviewer's findings:
- signal 5 now states its recorded-repro dependency and routes the no-repro
  case to the degradation row; revert mechanism specified (git stash / git
  revert -n); minimality flag tied to diff structure, not revert-ability.
- bounded-subprocesses section now bounds the git subprocess (5-30s) too,
  requires argv-array argument passing, and scopes Stryker to the driving
  regression test (a mutant killed only by a non-driving test is a finding).
- new test-provenance (security) clause: the driving test must be
  agent-authored; bug-report repro scripts are DATA, never executed verbatim.
- tightened 3 contract assertions to bind to specific clauses
  (guardrail_verdict field, deletion-reject-unless-RCA, 60s+git bounding).
- Goodhart framing softened to 'partially-independent'; DEBUG.md template
  verification field notes the nested map shape.

* chore(#1958): backfill changeset pr number (PR #2396)

* fix(#1958): add issue ref to allow-test-rule annotation (ADR-456)

CI lint-allow-test-rule-refs requires every allow-test-rule exemption to
carry a 'see #NNN' issue ref per ADR-456. The new test file's annotation
lacked it; this adds (see #1958).

9ad2bab4be fix(#2297): scope resolve_model_ids:"omit" to the resolving runtime (#2332)
* fix(#2297): scope resolve_model_ids:"omit" to the resolving runtime

The installer writes resolve_model_ids:"omit" for non-alias runtimes into the
machine-wide ~/.gsd/defaults.json (#1156); any runtime read it back, so install
order silently flipped Claude's adaptive tier aliases (executor->sonnet,
planner->opus) to '' in no-project sessions.

Resolution is now scoped to the runtime actually resolving, identified by a new
per-install <install>/gsd-core/.gsd-runtime marker (installer writes it beside
VERSION). The "omit" branch returns '' only when the PROJECT explicitly set omit
(honored for all runtimes, #2517 finding #4) OR the active runtime lacks native
aliases. Claude ignores a global-defaults-only omit and keeps its aliases; the
active runtime is canonicalized (GSD_RUNTIME -> config.runtime -> marker ->
claude) so alias/case spellings can't defeat the check; explicit project
omit is workstream/project-scope aware; explicit true still materializes IDs.

89b1bef881 refactor(#2267): golden-parity file-set snapshot + anti-staleness CI selection (#2274)
Phase 2 of golden-parity redesign (epic #2264). Adds an install file-set snapshot (golden-install-tree) and a ci-test-scope rule selecting golden-parity whenever any installed-source path changes, closing the silent-staleness hole behind the #2266 red. ADR-2264 amended (the copy/transform split premise was unsound). Closes #2267.
