Dennis Alexis Valin Dittrich 18c899def5 enhance(#4209): optional external source reviewer lanes for /gsd:code-review (#4323)
* test(01-01): define reviewer-support trait contract

Add failing coverage for step.supportsReviewerLanes (#4209 DISP-02):
validator rejects non-boolean values with an exact field path, accepts
missing/true/false, and the real code-review capability.json steps
must declare supportsReviewerLanes: true. Add loop-resolver projection
coverage proving the trait reaches activeHooks verbatim for a
provider-neutral synthetic step (not code-review-specific), and that
omitted/false values stay inert (no key on the active hook).

All 8 new assertions fail today: the validator has no such field, and
loop-resolver has nothing to project. RED before GREEN.

* feat(01-01): declare reviewer-capable steps

Add step.supportsReviewerLanes (#4209 DISP-02): a strict optional
boolean opt-in trait, step-scoped (not capability-wide). Only a
literal true validates and projects; false/omitted stay inert (no
key on the projected active hook), and every non-boolean type fails
capability-validator.cjs with an exact field-path error.

Opt both existing code-review steps (execute:post, execute:wave:post)
into the trait in capabilities/code-review/capability.json. Project
the validated field through src/loop-resolver.cts into activeHooks
so a provider-neutral generic interpreter can read it without any
code-review-specific knowledge. Document the field in
docs/reference/capability-manifest.md and regenerate
gsd-core/bin/lib/capability-registry.cjs via the generator (never
hand-edited).

Makes all 8 RED assertions from the prior commit pass.

* test(01-02): define shared reviewer dispatch

- Add tests/reviewer-step-dispatch.test.cjs covering dispatchReviewerLanes:
  inert when the supportsReviewerLanes trait is off or nothing is selected,
  exactly-once plan/invoke per selected lane, duplicate-alias dedup, the
  bounded metadata-only source-review prompt (repo root, paths+baseSha,
  depth, four fixed prohibitions), and capability-neutral reuse via a
  second synthetic step context.
- RED: module under test (src/reviewer-step-dispatch.cts) does not exist
  yet, so require() fails and every assertion is unreached.

* feat(01-02): dispatch reviewers for opted-in steps

- Add src/reviewer-step-dispatch.cts: dispatchReviewerLanes(input, deps),
  ONE interpreter for a step's supportsReviewerLanes trait. Reuses
  resolveReviewerSelection for selection and resolveLanePlan for planning
  (both already-existing, pure building blocks); invocation is the one
  required, caller-injected seam (deps.invoke) since runLane needs
  OS-aware spawn plumbing this module does not own.
- trait !== true, or a selection resolving to zero lanes, dispatches
  nothing (zero plan/invoke calls). Each selected lane is planned and
  invoked exactly once, in the selector's deduped/sorted order.
- buildSourceReviewPrompt assembles a metadata-only bounded prompt
  (repo root, canonical paths + base SHA, depth, four fixed
  prohibitions) — never file contents — written once per dispatch and
  shared across every invoked lane.
- GREEN: tests/reviewer-step-dispatch.test.cjs now passes.

* test(01-02): define reviewer dispatch failures

- Extend tests/reviewer-step-dispatch.test.cjs with the fail-closed
  matrix: an explicitly requested lane the selector could not resolve
  still lets the OTHER resolved lane run, but the aggregate result must
  never read as a clean success (and 'every explicit lane unavailable'
  must be distinguishable from the plain no-flags-passed inert case);
  request-level validation (path traversal, absolute paths outside
  repoRoot, empty/non-string paths, missing depth/base SHA) halts the
  whole dispatch before any lane is planned or invoked; a per-lane
  prompt-budget overflow hard-fails only that lane before invoke while
  its sibling still runs.
- RED: src/reviewer-step-dispatch.cts does not yet implement any of
  these guards, so 9 of the new assertions fail against the current
  (Task 1) implementation.

* fix(01-02): fail closed in reviewer dispatch

- src/reviewer-step-dispatch.cts: add the fail-closed guards the prior
  commit deliberately left out. An explicitly requested lane the
  selector could not resolve no longer lets the aggregate read as a
  clean success — lanes that DID resolve still run and keep their
  results (never narrow the requested set), but selection.errors now
  flips the aggregate ok to false, and 'every explicit lane
  unavailable' is now distinguishable (SELECTION_FAILED) from the
  plain no-flags-passed inert case (NO_LANES_SELECTED).
- Add request-level validation (validatePaths, depth/baseSha presence)
  that halts the WHOLE dispatch before any lane is planned or invoked:
  path traversal, absolute paths outside repoRoot, empty/non-string
  paths, and missing provenance are all rejected up front.
- Add per-lane prompt-budget enforcement (resolveBudget, mirroring
  gsd-tools.cjs's budgetFor convention including budget 0 = unbounded):
  a lane whose resolved budget the prompt exceeds hard-fails before
  invoke runs for it, without cancelling a sibling lane already
  planned.
- Document the supportsReviewerLanes trait and its dispatch-step
  interpreter in gsd-core/references/loop-hook-dispatch.md.
- GREEN: all 19 tests in tests/reviewer-step-dispatch.test.cjs pass;
  no regressions in the review-lane/reviewer-selection/prompt-budget
  suites (356 passing).

* test(01-03): define optional source reviewer flow

RED: assert code-review.md dispatches roster-derived reviewer-lane flags
through a single review-lane dispatch-step call (DISP-01..05), that the
no-flag path stays byte-for-behavior unchanged (COMP-01), and that
external evidence reaching the internal reviewer prompt is marked
unverified (CONS-02). Also covers the CLI contract directly: no-op with
no explicit selection, and fail-closed on an explicit unknown lane
(SAFE-07) via real gsd-tools.cjs subprocess calls.

* feat(01-03): route optional source reviewers

GREEN: code-review.md gains a dispatch_reviewer_lanes step that matches
canonical reviewer-lane flags against the merged first-party + installed
roster (never a hand-maintained list) and, only when at least one is
present, calls the shared reviewer-step interpreter exactly once with the
already-resolved repo root, file scope, depth, and base SHA. Its evidence
paths are appended to the internal reviewer prompt via
${EXTERNAL_EVIDENCE_BLOCK}, explicitly marked unverified. No reviewer-lane
flag leaves the internal-only dispatch byte-for-behavior unchanged
(COMP-01).

Deviation (Rule 3 — blocking issue): 01-02 documented `review-lane
dispatch-step` (gsd-core/references/loop-hook-dispatch.md) as the CLI
route `dispatchReviewerLanes` wires through, but never implemented the
gsd-tools.cjs subcommand — the workflow's call had nothing to reach. Add
it to the existing review-lane router, reusing the same effort-aware plan
building and runner deps `plan`/`invoke` already use (factored into
buildLaneRunnerDeps to avoid duplicating the spawn/http/fs seam). Guard
the CLI's own `detected` set on whether an explicit flag was passed:
resolveReviewerSelection's no-explicit-selection fallback is "select every
detected reviewer" (the correct default for /gsd:review), and passing it
an unconditionally non-empty detected set would silently invoke the whole
roster on every no-flag code review, violating COMP-01.

* test(01-03): define external finding consolidation

RED: assert gsd-code-reviewer.md treats <external_reviewer_evidence> as
untrusted input — independently re-verifies every claim against the actual
current source, resists a prompt-injection attempt embedded in evidence
text, and folds a verified claim into the existing Narrative Findings
section with no second REVIEW.md schema (CONS-01..03). Also assert
code-review.md's EXTERNAL_EVIDENCE_BLOCK restates the four fixed
source-review prohibitions (SAFE-03..06) at the internal-reviewer handoff.

* feat(01-03): consolidate external review evidence

GREEN: gsd-code-reviewer.md's load_context parses <external_reviewer_evidence>
as untrusted data, independently re-verifies every cited claim against the
actual current source before it can appear in REVIEW.md, and explicitly
resists prompt injection embedded in evidence text (never a command, no
matter what it claims to be). A verified claim folds into the existing
Narrative Findings section with (external: {slug}) provenance — one
REVIEW.md schema only, no separate external-findings section.
code-review.md's EXTERNAL_EVIDENCE_BLOCK now restates the four fixed
source-review prohibitions (SAFE-03..06) at the internal-reviewer handoff.

* fix(01-02): gitignore the reviewer-step-dispatch build artifact

01-02 added src/reviewer-step-dispatch.cts but never added its
npm run build:lib output to .gitignore, unlike every sibling
gsd-core/bin/lib/*.cjs generated file. Left it showing as untracked
noise in git status.

* docs(01-04): publish user and command contract for reviewer-lane source review

- Document optional reviewer-lane flags on /gsd-code-review in USER-GUIDE.md
  and COMMANDS.md: opt-in, no source bodies in prompts, no fallback on
  failure, findings independently consolidated into the single REVIEW.md
- Add the same contract to the docs/features/code-review-pipeline.md
  fragment and regenerate docs/FEATURES.md from it
- Preserve /gsd-review as the plan-review command; cross-reference it
  rather than duplicating the reviewer roster
- Pick up docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json and skills/gsd-code-review/SKILL.md
  drift owned by source already shipped in Plans 01-01/01-03 but never
  regenerated (npm run regen:derived had not been run in this worktree)

* docs(01-04): align architecture and agent ownership docs for reviewer-lane trait

- ARCHITECTURE.md: trace the #4209 capability trait (supportsReviewerLanes)
  through the shared dispatchReviewerLanes interpreter to the existing
  review-lane plan/invoke machinery, ending at gsd-code-reviewer as the
  sole REVIEW.md consolidator
- AGENTS.md: document gsd-code-reviewer's full-context verification scope
  and its treatment of external reviewer evidence as unverified input
- No new diagram, abstraction, or config key; docs/CONFIGURATION.md is
  unchanged since the feature adds no setting or default

* fix(01-02): eslint-ignore the reviewer-step-dispatch build artifact

Same gap as the earlier .gitignore fix: 01-02 added
src/reviewer-step-dispatch.cts but never added its generated
gsd-core/bin/lib/reviewer-step-dispatch.cjs output to
eslint.config.mjs's ignore list like every sibling generated file,
so tsc's emitted __importDefault CommonJS-interop var tripped
no-var.

* fix(01-04): add the reviewer-step-dispatch.cjs roster row to docs/INVENTORY.md

01-04 regenerated docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json (which now lists
cli_modules/reviewer-step-dispatch.cjs) but the hand-written roster
row in docs/INVENTORY.md — required by design, since a role sentence
cannot be generated — was never added.

* fix(01-01): update the code-review capability-step fixture for supportsReviewerLanes

refactor-trigger-cli.test.cjs's preservesCodeReviewHookShapeAlongsideRefactorHook
strict-deep-equals the code-review step's exact shape at execute:post; 01-01 added
supportsReviewerLanes: true to that step and this fixture was not updated.

* chore(01-03): acknowledge emitted-doc growth for code-review.md and gsd-code-reviewer.md

Both files grew as a direct, intended consequence of wiring optional
reviewer lanes into /gsd:code-review (the new dispatch_reviewer_lanes
step and the untrusted-evidence consolidation contract) — not
incidental drift.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: code-review.md — new dispatch_reviewer_lanes step and EXTERNAL_EVIDENCE_BLOCK wiring for optional reviewer lanes (#4209)
Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-code-reviewer.md — untrusted external-evidence consolidation contract for optional reviewer lanes (#4209)

* test(01-05): define WR-01/WR-02 reliability contract for dispatchReviewerLanes

From internal code review: dispatched must be false when zero lanes
actually reached plan(), and a throwing plan()/invoke() for one lane
must not discard results already collected for a sibling lane —
matching the fail-closed pattern gsd-tools.cjs already uses for the
same resolveLanePlan call (#2494/#2605/#1698/#1936/#2073/#2176/#2589/#2794).

Refs: gsd-core-dks.16, gsd-core-dks.17

* fix(01-05): close WR-01/WR-02/IN-01/IN-02 from internal review

- WR-01: dispatched now tracks whether any lane actually reached
  plan(), not results.length — an unresolvable selected slug no
  longer reports dispatched:true.
- WR-02: plan()/writePromptFile()/invoke() wrapped per-lane so a
  throw for one lane can never discard results already collected
  for a sibling lane, matching the same guard gsd-tools.cjs already
  has around the identical resolveLanePlan call.
- IN-01: documents the intentional budget===0-is-unbounded
  convention (#2797) the caller already relies on.
- IN-02: review-lane dispatch-step no longer blocks indefinitely on
  an un-piped interactive TTY; fails closed to empty paths instead.

* docs(01-05): add changeset fragment for PR #17

* fix(01-03): allowlist prompt-injection-scan false positive on the untrusted-evidence contract

agents/gsd-code-reviewer.md's untrusted-evidence section and its
pinning regression test both quote injection phrases as the exact
attack they defend against/detect — same
DEFECT.PROMPT-INJECTION-SCAN-COLLISION class as the existing
allowlist entries, not an actual injection vector.

* test(01-05): extend WR-02 coverage to writePromptFile/invoke throws; DIFF_BASE-empty skip

From CodeRabbit review: WR-02's earlier fix only wrapped plan() —
writePromptFile()/deps.invoke() still ran unguarded, so a throw
there still aborted every later selected lane. Also covers the
dispatch_reviewer_lanes DIFF_BASE-empty-provenance gap (explicit
lanes silently not running when no prior review and no phase-start
commit exist).

* fix(01-05): skip dispatch_reviewer_lanes with a clear warning when DIFF_BASE cannot be resolved

Previously an explicit reviewer-lane request with no prior review and
no resolvable phase-start commit reached dispatch-step with an empty
--base-sha, which fails closed via missing_provenance — correct, but
silent about why explicitly requested lanes didn't run. Now skip
dispatch entirely in that case with a stderr warning naming the
actual cause.

* fix(01-05): wrap writePromptFile/invoke in the same per-lane try/catch as plan()

WR-02's original fix only guarded plan() — a throw from
writePromptFile() or deps.invoke() still aborted the whole dispatch,
discarding results already collected for lanes processed earlier in
the loop. CodeRabbit caught the gap; WR-02b/WR-02c pin it.

* fix(01-05): WR-02b mock must throw only on the first writePromptFile() call

The committed mock threw unconditionally, so codex's retry also threw and
failed for the same reason as claude's — the test could not distinguish
'sibling still runs' from 'sibling also breaks'. Gate the throw to the
first call, matching WR-02/WR-02c's single-failure intent.

* fix(#4209): close review findings from adversarial + critical-code-reviewer pass

Two independent reviews (agy adversarial review, Opus critical-code-reviewer +
ponytail) found 6 Blocking and 7 Required issues in the reviewer-lane dispatch
wiring around dispatchReviewerLanes. All 13 tracked in gsd-core-dks.18-30 and
fixed here:

- dispatch-step's reducer silently swallowed whole-dispatch rejections
  (invalid paths, missing provenance, etc); it now checks parsed.ok/reason.
- spawn_reviewer recomputed its own stale DIFF_BASE, diverging from the
  LAST_REVIEW_COMMIT-aware value dispatch_reviewer_lanes uses on re-review;
  now shares the single compute_file_scope derivation.
- the external reviewer prompt had no actual review request or citation
  requirement, only prohibitions; added both.
- removed the supportsReviewerLanes trait plumbing (capability registry,
  validator, loop-resolver, docs, tests) — it was never consulted by the
  real dispatch path, which gates on explicit CLI flags instead.
- flag-resolution require() was a fragile cwd-relative literal that failed
  silently on non-vendored installs; now resolves via GSD_TOOLS's own
  directory and warns instead of swallowing failure.
- reducer didn't unwrap the @file: overflow protocol for large payloads.
- deduplicated resolveBudget/budgetFor into one resolveLaneBudget.
- lane artifacts now write to a mktemp run dir instead of $PHASE_DIR, so a
  second dispatch can't overwrite prior evidence.
- validatePaths rejects control characters, closing a markdown-injection
  vector into the external prompt via crafted filenames.
- reworded the one line that tripped prompt-injection-scan.sh instead of
  allowlisting the whole production prompt file.
- fixed a stale docstring range and a dispatched-field ordering bug.
- added 3 integration tests executing the actual reducer against synthetic
  dispatch-step JSON, replacing markdown-substring-only assertions.

771/771 tests pass across every touched suite; tsc --noEmit clean.

* fix(#4209): wire supportsReviewerLanes as the maintainer's required reusable trait

The maintainer's approval on issue #4209 explicitly redirected implementation
shape: reviewer-lane dispatch must be a reusable capability/step-dispatch
trait ("supportsReviewerLanes"), not code-review.md hand-wiring the call
itself. My previous commit (e2558326) deleted that trait entirely after
finding it declared-but-never-consulted, which was backwards — the fix was to
wire it, not remove it.

Restores the trait (capability.json, generated registry, validator,
loop-resolver.cts, docs, tests) and wires it for real: dispatch_reviewer_lanes
now resolves its own active hook via `gsd_run loop render-hooks` for the
configured workflow.code_review_point and only proceeds to CLI-flag matching
when supportsReviewerLanes reads true. Explicit flags no longer bypass the
trait; a matching flag with the trait false resolves zero slugs (proven by a
new integration test executing the real fence with both trait states).

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-core/workflows/code-review.md — the
dispatch_reviewer_lanes step grows a trait-resolution fence (#4209 maintainer
redirect requires the capability layer, not the workflow, own the opt-in
decision).

* fix(#4209): dispatch-step self-verifies the reviewer-lane trait via --cap-id/--point

Both an agy adversarial review and an Opus critical-code-reviewer pass
independently found the same gap in my previous commit (9b2c3773d): the trait
check I wired into code-review.md only protected code-review's OWN
invocation — gsd-tools.cjs's dispatch-step handler still hardcoded
`trait: true` unconditionally, so a second capability declaring
supportsReviewerLanes would get zero enforcement from the shared CLI unless
it correctly re-implemented the ~15-line render-hooks scrape itself. That is
exactly the "each workflow.md hand-wiring the call" the maintainer's redirect
said to eliminate.

Moves the trait check into dispatch-step itself: given --cap-id/--point, it
self-invokes `loop render-hooks <point>` (relocating the one subprocess
code-review.md used to spawn for this, not adding a new one) and derives the
real trait from that capId's active hook, rather than trusting a
caller-passed boolean. code-review.md now only passes
--cap-id code-review --point "$CODE_REVIEW_POINT" and no longer resolves or
gates on the trait itself — the ~20-line scrape it previously carried is
gone. Any other capability opts into the identical enforcement by declaring
the trait and passing the same two flags.

Replaced the two tests that stipulated SUPPORTS_REVIEWER_LANES as an input
variable (they proved a bash branch honors a variable, not that the variable
reflects the real capability manifest) with three integration tests that
invoke the real dispatch-step CLI against the real first-party capability
registry: the real code-review trait resolves true, an unknown --cap-id
resolves false (trait_not_enabled, fail-closed), and omitting
--cap-id/--point entirely resolves false (no context means no opt-in).

Also: reject \x7f/U+2028/U+2029 in validatePaths' control-character check
(agy-F1 was incomplete), and delete the promptWritten per-lane coupling
flag — the prompt write is idempotent, so writing it once per lane instead
of gating on "did any lane write it yet" removes a latent bug where a
deps.plan override that ever varies promptPath per lane would silently skip
writing for a later lane.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-core/workflows/code-review.md — net line count
drops (the trait scrape moved into dispatch-step), but the file still grew
this session across multiple commits; acknowledging per the growth-tracking
convention.

* fix(#4209): remove per-run token waste from the shipped prompts

Runtime prompt content, not session tokens: two real, per-invocation token
costs in the code that ships.

1. agents/gsd-code-reviewer.md's critical_rules restated nearly all of
   load_context step 5's ~180-word untrusted-evidence contract in ~90 more
   words, breaking this section's own established terse one-liner style
   (every other rule here is 1-2 sentences). This prompt loads fresh on
   every /gsd:code-review invocation. Shrunk to a one-line cross-reference,
   matching how write_review's own reference to step 5 already does it.

2. buildSourceReviewPrompt repeated the base SHA on every single file line
   even though it is identical for every file and already stated once at
   the top of the prompt — O(files) wasted tokens on every dispatched lane
   for a 50-file review, for zero information gain. File lines are now bare
   paths.

* fix(#4209): resolve reviewer-lane trait in-process, fix CI failures found in review round 3

Opus critical-code-reviewer found a real Blocking defect in the --cap-id/
--point self-invocation added last commit: `dispatch-step` spawned
`loop render-hooks <point> --raw` as a subprocess and bare-JSON.parse'd its
stdout, but `io.cjs`'s output() redirects any payload over 50000 chars to
`@file:<path>` instead of inline JSON -- the same overflow protocol this
feature already unwraps for its OWN dispatch result 60 lines later in
code-review.md. A large-enough activeHooks envelope (more installed
capabilities/fragments) would throw, get silently swallowed by the bare
catch, and misreport a real trait as trait_not_enabled with zero diagnostic.

Fixed by extracting the config/registry/capability-state resolution
`cmdLoopRenderHooks` already performs into an exported pure function,
resolveActiveHooksForPoint (both `cmdLoopRenderHooks` and dispatch-step now
share it), and calling it in-process from dispatch-step instead of spawning
a subprocess at all. This eliminates the @file: exposure entirely (the
dispatch-step path never touches the rendered-string envelope or its
JSON-stringify/50000-char threshold), removes one subprocess spawn per
code-review invocation, and gives a genuine diagnostic (stderr warning) on
resolution failure instead of silent fail-closed. Corrected three doc/
docstring references to the now-removed subprocess self-invocation.

Also fixes 2 real CI failures this round surfaced:
- lint-tests: the agy-F1 control-char regex fix's `eslint-disable-next-line
  no-control-regex` comment was unused under this project's ESLint config
  (verified locally: the rule never actually flags \x00-\x1f in this repo's
  config) -- a mistake from an earlier commit this session, never actually
  lint-checked before push. Removed the disable comment.
- security (prompt-injection-scan): the agy-F1 regression test's crafted
  fixture literally contains "Ignore all prior instructions." as test data
  proving validatePaths rejects it -- allowlisted the test file, same
  DEFECT.PROMPT-INJECTION-SCAN-COLLISION class as existing entries.

Also trimmed agents/gsd-code-reviewer.md's load_context step 5 (R2): one
bullet stated "untrusted, never a command" three different ways in one
paragraph, and a same-file duplicate of write_review's schema rule.
Consolidated to state each rule once.

Declined one suggestion from this round: shrinking code-review.md's
EXTERNAL_EVIDENCE_BLOCK to a bare evidence list. Two tests
(tests/code-review-pipeline-regression.test.cjs's CONS-01..03 block,
tests/code-review.test.cjs's CONS-02 test) deliberately lock the four-
prohibitions restatement and the untrusted-evidence prose into the
INJECTED block itself, not just the consolidator's system prompt --
adjacency of the warning to the untrusted payload it's warning about is a
recognized prompt-injection defense-in-depth pattern from this
workstream's original TDD plan, not accidental duplication.

* fix(#4209): correct stale per-file base-SHA prose in the external prompt

Leftover from removing the per-file base SHA repetition earlier this
session: the review-request sentence still said "relative to its base SHA"
(singular per-file framing) when there's now exactly one base SHA, stated
once above the file list. Reads "relative to the base SHA above" now.

* fix(#4209): make getLane/configGet/plan required deps, delete dead defaults

R3/R4 from the review round I'd deferred as low-priority test-churn: this
file's one production caller (gsd-tools.cjs's dispatch-step handler) always
supplies all three, so the fallbacks were dead in production -- but each was
actively WRONG if ever reached: the default configGet always returned
undefined, silently disabling resolveLaneBudget's overflow guard; the
default getLane looked up only first-party REVIEWER_LANES, diverging from
production's overlay-merged roster; the default plan skipped per-host effort
resolution entirely.

These defaults were introduced by this PR's own earlier work (this file did
not exist before #4209 -- first commit a760bfcda, 01-02), not inherited from
elsewhere, so there's no external caller depending on the lenient contract.

Turned out free to fix: making the three deps required and deleting
defaultGetLane/defaultPlan needed zero test changes -- every existing test
that actually reaches the per-lane loop already supplies getLane/plan
explicitly, and configGet's only real dependent (the budget-overflow tests)
already supplies it too. 788/788 tests pass unchanged, tsc/lint clean.

* fix(#4209): define depth semantics for the external reviewer lane

Verified this was a real bug, not a match to existing convention as I'd
claimed when declining the suggestion earlier this session: the internal
gsd-code-reviewer agent's own system prompt carries a full <depth_levels>
block defining what quick/standard/deep mean and do (agents/gsd-code-
reviewer.md:68-99). The external reviewer lane has no access to that
persona at all -- it only ever sees buildSourceReviewPrompt's bounded text,
which sent the bare depth label with zero definition to a third-party CLI
with no other source of truth for what "standard" means.

Added depthMeaning(), condensed from the internal reviewer's own
<depth_levels> definitions so the two stay consistent, and interpolated it
into the review-request sentence. 150/150 tests pass, tsc/lint clean.

* fix(#4209): merge dispatch_reviewer_lanes' split fences into one shell invocation

CR-01 (Opus critical-code-reviewer, confirmed by direct execution): the
roster-matching fence set EXPLICIT_JOINED/EXPLICIT_REVIEWER_SLUGS, and a
SEPARATE later fence read them via ${#EXPLICIT_REVIEWER_SLUGS[@]} to decide
whether to dispatch at all. This file's own documented rule (its
depth-resolution guard, stated explicitly a few hundred lines earlier) is
that a guard and the extraction it protects must run as one shell
control-flow decision, because markdown-fenced blocks do not share shell
state -- this step violated its own file's rule for the entire feature's
gating condition.

Merged the roster-resolution fence and the dispatch-decision fence into one
continuous bash block, removing the intervening prose that split them.
Fixed the stderr-based failure detection in the same edit (RQ-01: checking
whether stderr is non-empty misfires on any benign Node warning; now checks
the actual exit status of the roster-resolution command).

Verified by extracting the merged fence and executing it standalone, driving
both branches: --codex resolves EXPLICIT_JOINED=codex, SLUGS_COUNT=1, and a
real dispatch-step call succeeds; no flags resolves EXPLICIT_JOINED empty,
SLUGS_COUNT=0, dispatch-step never invoked (COMP-01). 141/141 workflow tests
pass, tsc/lint clean.

* fix(#4209): depthMeaning accuracy, injection defense on all embedded fields, hoisted prompt write

Batch of Required/Suggestion fixes from the Opus critical-code-reviewer +
writing-for-agents pass:

- CR-02/CR-03: depthMeaning() dropped real categories from quick (empty catch
  blocks, commented-out code) and deep (error propagation, state mutation
  consistency, circular dependencies) relative to the real <depth_levels>
  block, and had zero test coverage. Restored full accuracy and added tests
  that read the real agents/gsd-code-reviewer.md file directly, so drift
  between the two can't recur silently. Unrecognised depth now normalizes to
  standard's definition, matching that agent's own documented rule, instead
  of rendering an undefined bare label.

- RQ-04: depth/baseSha/repoRoot/runDir land in the same markdown prompt
  `paths` does, but weren't checked for control characters like paths were
  (agy-F1's original finding). Hoisted CONTROL_CHAR to module scope and
  applied it to all four fields at the same provenance-check boundary.
  runDir previously had zero validation at all.

- S1: deleted the dead `identity` parameter on `invoke` -- the one production
  caller already ignores it, no test read it by name.

- S2: hoisted the shared prompt write above the per-lane loop -- promptPath
  is derived from runDir alone (constant across lanes by construction), so
  writing it once is both correct and cheaper than the per-lane write R1
  introduced earlier this session. Discovered and fixed a real regression
  from the naive version of this hoist: an unguarded throw would have
  escaped dispatchReviewerLanes as an uncaught exception instead of a clean
  per-lane failure. Added a new PROMPT_WRITE_FAILED whole-dispatch reason,
  matching the existing validatePaths/MISSING_PROVENANCE halt pattern, with
  a dedicated regression test.

- S3: moved `planned = true` past the budget-overflow gate, so `dispatched`
  only reports true once a lane has cleared BOTH plan and budget checks.

- S5: relayed gsd-code-reviewer.md's own "performance issues are out of
  scope unless also correctness issues" policy into the external-lane
  prompt, which previously had no such guidance and could return findings
  the internal reviewer's own contract excludes.

- RQ-05 (partial): shrunk this file's own header docstring's restatement of
  the trait-reuse architecture to a pointer at
  gsd-core/references/loop-hook-dispatch.md, the canonical home.

234/234 tests pass across the full reviewer-lane test suite, tsc/lint clean.

* fix(#4209): dedupe roster-merge logic, consolidate trait architecture prose, add step completion criterion

RQ-02: added a `review-lane explicit-from-argv` subcommand that reuses the
SAME merged-roster logic (`laneBySlug`) `dispatch-step`/`plan`/`invoke`
already share. code-review.md's ~18-line inline `node -e` reimplementing
`loadRegistry`+`mergeReviewerLanes` (a rename-only copy of the block in
gsd-tools.cjs) is now a single call to this subcommand -- the exact
violation code-review-flags.cjs's own header warns against ("this is the
canonical flag-parsing surface -- do not replicate inline bash parsing").

RQ-03: an empty --cap-id XOR --point now warns distinctly from the
legitimate no-context opt-out (both absent) -- a caller that named a
capability without its point was silently indistinguishable from a correct
opt-out. Also hardened the CODE_REVIEW_POINT config-get fallback: it only
ever fires when the config-get COMMAND ITSELF fails (config-get already
resolves the manifest's own schema default in the normal case), but that
failure was previously silent.

RQ-05/W-01/W-12/W-13: the "supportsReviewerLanes is a reusable trait
resolved inside dispatch-step" explanation was restated in full in 5
places across this session's own review cycles. Consolidated to ONE
canonical statement in gsd-core/references/loop-hook-dispatch.md; the other
4 (this file's own header, gsd-tools.cjs's comment, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md,
code-review.md's step-opening comment) now point at it instead.

W-05/W-06: loop-hook-dispatch.md described "false or non-boolean" as two
inert cases when capability-validator.cjs already rejects non-boolean at
load -- restated as the two cases that actually reach this code. Removed a
"do not hand-roll trait resolution" prohibition whose target no longer
exists once the positive description precedes it.

W-04: deleted a no-op sentence in agents/gsd-code-reviewer.md ("missing
block means proceed as normal") -- an absent optional block already means
proceed as normal without being told.

W-08/W-09: replaced longhand "zero selection/plan/invoke calls" and the
made-up compound "byte-for-behavior [un]changed" with the token this
session's own docs already coined for this concept (inert) and the word
that means what byte-for-behavior was reaching for (unchanged).

W-10: dispatch_reviewer_lanes had no completion criterion -- added one
sentence naming the checkable end state (EXTERNAL_EVIDENCE_BLOCK is set,
either populated or empty). This exact sentence would have caught the
cross-fence bug fixed two commits ago at authoring time.

Declined from this round, with reasoning: W-02/W-03 (trim the
untrusted-evidence restatement in EXTERNAL_EVIDENCE_BLOCK/critical_rules) --
two tests deliberately lock this as intentional adjacency-based
prompt-injection defense-in-depth, not accidental duplication (see this
branch's own earlier commit). S4 (wrap LANE_RUN_DIR in a creation-site
`trap ... EXIT`) -- would fire at the end of the CREATING fence, before
spawn_reviewer's agent ever reads the evidence files, given this file's own
documented fenced-block execution model; the existing named cross-reference
between creation and cleanup already satisfies the co-location concern
without introducing that regression.

853/853 tests pass across the full reviewer-lane test suite, tsc/lint clean.

* fix(#4209): merge CODE_REVIEW_POINT into dispatch_reviewer_lanes' one fence, stop test from spawning real codex

Round-5 review (agy) found the same cross-fence-split bug CR-01 already fixed
for EXPLICIT_JOINED/EXPLICIT_REVIEWER_SLUGS: CODE_REVIEW_POINT's config-get
fallback lived in an earlier, separate fence from the fence that consumes it
via --point, split only by prose (not a guard, per this step's own documented
rule). Merged into the single continuous fence and added a structural test
asserting exactly one bash fence in the step.

The new end-to-end regression test for this used --codex, which drives the
fence's real `review-lane dispatch-step` call and, with the codex binary
present on PATH, spawns the real external CLI — which then blocks on
interactive auth with no stdin (BL-01). Stubbed gsd_run for
`review-lane dispatch-step` only (captures argv instead of executing),
keeping the real config-get/explicit-from-argv calls the test is actually
about.

* fix(#4209): split control-char vs missing provenance reason, realpath-check path escapes, stale comment

Round-5 review (Opus) warning-tier findings:

- WR-04: MISSING_PROVENANCE covered both "field absent" and "field present but
  a control-character injection attempt" — a caller distinguishing a config
  problem from a security event couldn't tell them apart. Split into
  MISSING_PROVENANCE (absent) and INVALID_PROVENANCE (present but invalid).
- WR-05: validatePaths' containment check was lexical only (path.resolve),
  so a symlink whose own path sits inside repoRoot could still point outside
  it. Added an fs.realpathSync check (ENOENT-tolerant — a git-diff path can
  legitimately name a file already deleted in a stale worktree), realpathing
  repoRoot itself too so a symlinked repoRoot (e.g. /tmp on macOS) doesn't
  false-positive-reject its own real children.
- WR-08: a comment in the per-lane loop still said a throwing writePromptFile()
  was caught there — stale since the prompt write was hoisted above the loop
  in an earlier round.

WR-03 (validate depth against the quick/standard/deep enum) was considered
and declined: this dispatcher is deliberately capability-neutral (see the
existing "synthetic step context" test, which passes a non-code-review depth
label on purpose to prove no code-review-specific special-casing exists).
WR-01 (double registry load), WR-02 (trim-vs-hard-fail budget semantics), and
WR-07 (reason omitted on the aggregate return) were verified against source
and are not bugs — see review notes.

* docs(#4209): document LANE_RUN_DIR's early-exit trade-off as accepted, not a gap

Round-5 review (Opus, BL-03) flagged that an early exit between
dispatch_reviewer_lanes and commit_review leaks the run-scoped temp dir. A
trap-based cleanup was considered and rejected: if a step genuinely runs as
a separate process, a trap set at creation time would fire at the end of
that SAME fence, deleting the directory before spawn_reviewer/commit_review
ever read it — worse than the leak it would fix.

review.md's own gather_context/cleanup pair for the identical resource class
(a run-scoped reviewer temp dir) already makes and documents this exact
trade-off: cleanup runs only on a documented success path, and a leftover
$TMPDIR entry is explicitly called cheaper than destroyed evidence. Recording
that precedent here so this isn't re-raised as a live gap in a future review.

* fix(#4209): register the WR-05 symlink-escape test's synthetic docs/ path

reviewer-step-dispatch.test.cjs's "capability-neutral reuse" fixture passes
paths: ['docs/spec.md'] as a synthetic, never-read path proving the
dispatcher has no code-review-specific special-casing. lint-docs-guard-
registration correctly flagged this as an unregistered docs/ path reference —
add the docs-guard-exempt marker and its pinned baseline entry, the same
pattern every other synthetic docs/ literal in this test suite already uses.

* fix(#4209): backfill changeset pr: field with the real upstream PR number

changeset-lint's fail_pr_field_drift caught the fragment still pointing at
the fork PR (17) instead of the upstream one (open-gsd/gsd-core#4323) this
branch is now also open against.

* docs(#4209): amend ADR-2782 for the supportsReviewerLanes step-trait seam

trek-e's review (2026-09-07, gsd-core#4323) found a real ADR gap: every
decision in ADR-2782 (D1-D9) and every prior dated amendment governs the
`role: "reviewer"` capability body and its one consumer, /gsd:review. This
PR's actual new seam - a `supportsReviewerLanes: true` trait on an ordinary
feature capability's `steps[]` entry, projected through loop-resolver.cts
and resolved in-process via resolveActiveHooksForPoint - is a different
capability axis (steps/gates/contributions) that the ADR's own scope note
explicitly places out of reach. Per docs/contributor-standards.md's
"Amending an accepted ADR", an in-place dated section is the established,
lighter-weight path for an addition that stays within the ADR's existing
decisions - used twice already in this same file - so this appends a third
dated entry documenting the new seam, its consumer, and why it reuses the
existing D1-D9-governed plan/invoke machinery rather than adding a second
one. No decision is reversed; no new Amends/Amended-by pair is needed since
the steps/gates/contributions axis already carries reciprocal links to
ADR-857 and ADR-894.

* fix(#4209): close two test-quality gaps trek-e's review found

Minor 1: validatePaths (a path-shape parser guarding the prompt-
injection/path-traversal trust boundary) had only example-based coverage,
violating ADR-456's rule that parsers/budget limits carry at least one
fast-check property test. Adds three: safe-segment paths are never
rejected, a single leading "../" always escapes the one-segment repoRoot,
and a control character anywhere is always rejected - one property per
rejection reason validatePaths owns.

Minor 2: the budget-overflow check (`estimatedTokens > budget`) was only
ever exercised far below budget or at budget:0 (unbounded), never at the
exact threshold crossing where a `>` vs `>=` off-by-one would hide. Adds
three exact-boundary tests using the real estimateTokens/
buildSourceReviewPrompt the module calls internally, so the resolved
token count is exact rather than approximated: budget == estimate (must
pass), budget == estimate - 1 (must fail), budget == estimate + 1 (must
pass).

Also extracts okPlan()'s fixture timeoutMs into a named constant -
local/no-adhoc-timeout-literal (#4446) landed on next after this branch
was authored and flagged the pre-existing literal on rebase; it is fixture
data for a synthetic plan object dispatchReviewerLanes never waits on, a
distinct class from tests/helpers/timeouts.cjs's real subprocess norms.

* fix(#4209): update docs-guard-registration baseline for the new ADR citation

reviewer-step-dispatch.test.cjs's new fast-check property tests cite
docs/adr/456-test-rigor-architecture.md in a justifying comment (never a
real read). lint-docs-guard-registration fingerprints every docs/ path
string an exempted test file mentions and fails on drift so a human
re-confirms the exemption still holds - re-confirmed, and the baseline is
updated to match.

* fix(#4209): point changeset pr: field at the fork PR for CI validation

changeset-lint's fail_pr_field_drift check compares the fragment's pr:
field against the PR the CI run is actually attached to (GITHUB_EVENT_PATH),
not a fixed target. Rehearsing this branch on fork PR
davdittrich/gsd-core#17 needs pr: 17 to pass that check; the prior commit's
pr: 4323 (the real open-gsd upstream PR number) is correct for that PR but
fails here. Backfill to 4323 happens again, as the last commit, immediately
before the approved push to open-gsd#4323 - never leaving pr: 17 on the
branch that ships upstream.

* fix(#4209): reject promptChannel:none lanes from source-review dispatch

CodeRabbit found a real scope mismatch: coderabbit's lane declares
promptChannel: 'none' and reviews the working tree on its own terms,
fed nothing (review.md:367). Silently dispatching it through
dispatchReviewerLanes would ignore the bounded paths/depth/baseSha scope
buildSourceReviewPrompt promises and let the lane review whatever it
independently sees fit, violating this interpreter's own scoped,
metadata-only contract. Reject before plan()/invoke(), same as an
unresolved slug.

* fix(#4209): scope CONS-02 test to the evidence-block line, not the whole file

CodeRabbit found the whole-file match on workflowContent would still
pass if UNVERIFIED and re-open/reopen appeared in two unrelated parts
of this 1000+-line workflow, proving nothing about the actual evidence
block's contract. Line-filtered via splitLines (not a bare-\n regex
spanning readFileSync content) so this stays CRLF-portable and passes
local/no-unbounded-quantifier and local/no-crlf-fragile-split.

* fix(#4209): guard DISPATCH_JSON substitution and capture its stderr

CodeRabbit found the dispatch-step command substitution unguarded: a
non-zero exit could leave DISPATCH_JSON empty (or halt the step under
errexit with no warning), and the downstream reducer would only ever
report the generic unparseable_dispatch_output reason, discarding the
command's own diagnostic. Guarded like the existing CODE_REVIEW_POINT/
EXPLICIT_JOINED calls above it: capture stderr to a temp file, surface
it in a warning on failure, and fall back to a parseable dispatch_
command_failed JSON stub so the reducer's existing reason-reporting
path still fires.

* docs(#4209): fix byte-for-behavior wording and missing colon, regenerate

CodeRabbit found "byte-for-behavior" should read "byte-for-byte" (the
established repo term for output-identical unchanged behavior) and a
missing colon after the bold "Optional external reviewer lanes (#4209)"
lead-in in docs/features/code-review-pipeline.md. Fixed in the two
hand-authored sources (commands/gsd/code-review.md, docs/features/
code-review-pipeline.md) and regenerated the two derived projections
(skills/gsd-code-review/SKILL.md via gen-plugin-skills.cjs, docs/
FEATURES.md via gen-features.cjs) so they stay in sync.

* fix(#4209): drop the fabricated DISPATCH_JSON fallback stub (Windows CI)

The prior fix's fallback `DISPATCH_JSON='{"ok":false,...}'` embeds
double-quoted JSON keys inside a single-quoted shell literal. That
extra quote density, inside an already quote-heavy ~8KB driver string,
passed bash -n and the full local suite on Linux but broke Windows
Git-Bash: `dispatch_reviewer_lanes computes CODE_REVIEW_POINT ... end
to end (#4209 round 5)` failed on two Windows CI shards with `bash -c:
unexpected EOF while looking for matching '''` — a Windows argv-to-
command-line re-quoting edge case, reproducible on rerun, not a flake.
Root-caused via gh api job logs plus a byte-identical local
reconstruction of the test's own driver script.

Fix: drop the fabricated stub. The downstream node -e reducer already
falls back to reason `unparseable_dispatch_output` on any JSON.parse
failure, so an empty/partial DISPATCH_JSON on command failure is still
handled correctly, with zero new quoting risk.

* revert(#4209): drop the DISPATCH_JSON stderr-guard nitpick (Windows CI)

Two materially different mechanisms for the same CodeRabbit Nitpick
("Trivial | Quick win") both broke Windows Git-Bash reproducibly:
a single-quoted JSON-literal fallback ("bash -c: unexpected EOF ...
matching '''") and, after removing that, a plain `head -1 "$VAR"`
inside a nested command substitution ("unexpected EOF ... matching
'"'"). Both passed bash -n and the full local suite on Linux every
time; both failed the SAME test deterministically on Windows CI. Two
attempts at the same class of fix (nested-quote construction near
this exact step) is the retry limit - reverting to the original,
already-shipped, Windows-verified unguarded form rather than
continuing to guess at a third quoting mechanism for a Trivial-
severity nitpick. Logged as bug-221/bug-222 in .wolf/buglog.json for
anyone attempting this again: the fix belongs outside this specific
markdown-fence-driver test harness (e.g., a real .sh helper script)
if it's worth doing at all.

* fix(#4209): backfill changeset pr: field to the real upstream PR before push

Fork validation (davdittrich/gsd-core#17) needed pr: 17 to satisfy
changeset-lint's PR-number check while rehearsing there; this is the
last commit before the approved push to the real upstream PR
(open-gsd/gsd-core#4323), so the field points at that PR number again.

# GSD Shipped Surface Inventory
> Authoritative roster of every shipped GSD surface: commands, agents, workflows, references, CLI modules, and hooks. Where the broad docs (AGENTS.md, COMMANDS.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, CLI-TOOLS.md) diverge from the filesystem, treat this file and the repository tree itself as the source of truth.
## How To Use This File
- The machine-readable roster lives in `docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json` (regenerated by `scripts/gen-inventory-manifest.cjs --write`). For live counts, run `ls agents/gsd-*.md | wc -l` etc. against the checkout.
- This file enumerates every shipped surface across all six families (agents, commands, workflows, references, CLI modules, hooks). Broad docs may render narrative or curated subsets; when they disagree with the filesystem, this file and the directory listings are authoritative.
- New surfaces should land here first, then propagate to the broad docs. `tests/inventory-manifest-sync.test.cjs` anchors both halves: the manifest against the filesystem, and this file's rows against the manifest (#3762). The second half cannot be regenerated — a role sentence is hand-written by design, so re-running `gen-inventory-manifest.cjs` never clears it.
This is the authoritative roster of every shipped GSD Core surface. See the [docs index](README.md) to navigate by topic.
---
## Agents
Full roster at `agents/gsd-*.md`. The "Primary doc" column flags whether [`docs/AGENTS.md`](AGENTS.md) carries a full role card (*primary*), a short stub in the "Advanced and Specialized Agents" section (*advanced stub*), or no coverage (*inventory only*).

**Coverage note.** `docs/AGENTS.md` gives full role cards for the primary agents plus concise stubs for the advanced agents. The Agent Tool Permissions Summary in that file covers only the primary agents; the advanced agents' tool lists are captured in their per-agent frontmatter in `agents/gsd-*.md`.

## Commands
Full roster at `commands/gsd/*.md`. The groupings below mirror `docs/COMMANDS.md` section order; each row carries the command name, a one-line role derived from the command's frontmatter `description:`, and a link to the source file. `tests/command-count-sync.test.cjs` locks the count against the filesystem.
### Namespace Meta-Skills
These six routers are descriptor-only entries that the model picks first; the body of each contains a routing table that points at the correct concrete sub-skill. They exist to keep the eager skill-listing token cost low while the full surface remains reachable. See [#2792](https://github.com/open-gsd/gsd-core/issues/2792) for the rationale; the routing tables target the post-[#2790](https://github.com/open-gsd/gsd-core/issues/2790) consolidated surface.

> **Note:** Some workflows have no direct user-facing command (e.g. `execute-plan.md`, `transition.md`, `node-repair.md`, `diagnose-issues.md`) — they are invoked internally by orchestrator workflows. (The former `verify-phase` workflow — goal-backward verification with no loader of its own — was deleted in #1892; its still-live gates moved to `references/verifier-phase-gates.md` behind `gsd-verifier`.)
### Workflow Sub-Files
A workflow may own four kinds of sub-file. All live under `gsd-core/workflows/<workflow>/` and
none is separately invocable — the parent workflow reaches them.
| Subdirectory | What it holds | Manifest family | Roster |
|---|---|---|---|
| `<workflow>/steps/*.md` | Gated section bodies extracted by the fragment model (ADR-1671, epic #1671 Phases 6.1–6.3). The parent carries a `section_manifest`-gated stub; `gsd-core/workflows/section-manifest.json` names which step a given invocation reads. | `workflow_steps` | See `docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json` for the authoritative per-file list |
| `<workflow>/modes/*.md` | Progressive-disclosure mode files (#717). The parent dispatches to exactly one; `discuss-phase/modes/` is the canonical example. | `workflow_modes` | `discuss-phase`, `help` |
| `<workflow>/detail/*.md` | Elaboration content deferred from a workflow spine, read at runtime only when `workflow.compact_content` is `false` (ADR-4139; epic #4139 Phase 2 #4402 established the first example, Phase 3 #4403 added the CI guard). | `workflow_detail` | `plan-phase` |
| `<workflow>/templates/*.md` | Fill-in template bodies the parent workflow renders at runtime; also referenced as a `FRAGMENT_DIRS` entry in `scripts/lint-response-language-coverage.cjs`. | `workflow_templates` | `discuss-phase` |
All four families are keyed by `<workflow>/<subdir>/<file>.md` rather than a bare filename, because
two workflows may each own a step of the same name — `families.workflows` uses bare basenames and
cannot represent these without collision.
**Adding a step, mode, detail, or template file requires no hand-written row here.** Run
`node scripts/gen-inventory-manifest.cjs --write` (after `build:lib`) and the manifest picks it up;
`tests/inventory-manifest-sync.test.cjs` fails if you forget. The per-file roster deliberately lives
in `docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json` rather than being duplicated in this table — 60 rows that must be
hand-maintained in lockstep with a generated artifact is the drift this file exists to catch.

| `research-philosophy.md` | Shared research philosophy (training-as-hypothesis, honest reporting, investigation-not-confirmation) injected into researcher agents. |
| `research-verification-protocol.md` | Shared research verification protocol (4 pitfalls + pre-submission checklist) injected into researcher agents. |
| `verify-command-path-resolvability.md` | Verify Command Path Resolvability dimension (#2401) loaded by `gsd-plan-checker`: how to consume the `{VERIFY_PATHS}` probe result (never re-run or hand-reason the filesystem), the severity/reason table, and report-never-prescribe rules. |
| `nyquist-compliance.md` | Dimension 8 checks 8a-8e (#3172) loaded by `gsd-plan-checker`: the VALIDATION.md gate, automated-verify presence, feedback-latency assessment, sampling continuity, Wave 0 completeness, and the Dimension 8 output table — extracted from the agent to stay under its LARGE size cap. |
| `failing-direction.md` | Check 8f, Stated Failing Direction (#3172), loaded by `gsd-plan-checker`: how to consume the `{FAILING_DIRECTIONS}` probe result, the status/severity table, the sentinel exemption, and the split between deterministic blockers and advisory vacuous-statement warnings. |
### Workflow References
| Reference | Role |
|-----------|------|
| `agent-contracts.md` | Formal interface between orchestrators and agents. |
| `context-budget.md` | Context window budget allocation rules. |
| `execute-phase-context-guard.md` | Context exhaustion guard step for `execute-phase` wave loop — `workflow.context_guard_mode` dispatch table (warn/auto/off) and POOR-tier pause-work trigger (#1452). |
| `execute-phase-requirement-revert.md` | Gap-report step for `execute-phase` — reverts this phase's own shared requirement IDs out of `Complete` in REQUIREMENTS.md before rendering a `gaps_found` report, scoped to `PHASE_REQ_IDS` so other phases' rows are untouched (#2388). |
| `execute-phase-response-language.md` | Response-language directive for `execute-phase` orchestrator output (questions, narration, report-template prose); extracted to keep the workflow under the frozen pre-phase-6 byte ceiling (#2402). |
| `execute-phase-quota-recovery.md` | Step 7.1 detail for `execute-phase` — `quota-exceeded` recovery: the opt-in `dynamic_routing.provider_escalation` ladder (swap provider, honor `Retry-After`, fail loudly when spent) and the default manual wait-for-reset prompt (#2296). |
| `execute-phase-between-wave-reset.md` | Between-wave manifest reset and worktree base refresh for waves 2+, plus the pre-wave cross-plan key-links dependency check (#1369). |
| `execute-phase-wave-guard.md` | Inter-wave worktree base re-check for wave N+1 — the harness caches the fork base, so a fresh worktree would otherwise be cut from the stale pre-wave base (#1369, #2652). |
| `offer-next.md` | The `offer_next` step body extracted from `execute-phase.md` — auto-advance routing and the no-transition check (#2537). |
| `response-language-directive.md` | Shared response-language directive for workflow output, inter-tool narration, and translated report-template prose (#2529). |
| `continuation-format.md` | Session continuation/resume format. |
| `domain-probes.md` | Domain-specific probing questions for discuss-phase. |
| `edge-probe.md` | Spec-phase edge-completeness probe — 8-category edge taxonomy, shape classification, and the `requirements → checks → verifier` resolution model (Step 5.5). |
| `prohibition-probe.md` | Spec-phase prohibition-completeness probe — the two-stage adversarial-recall → precision protocol that surfaces the unwritten *must-NOT* constraints (values/safety/ethics), with status×verification (`test`/`judgment`) tiering and canon-referral breadcrumbs (Step 5.6); second adapter of the `probe-core` resolution model. |
| `ui-consideration-probe.md` | UI-phase state-completeness probe — the closed shape-rooted UI-state taxonomy (empty/loading/error/populated/partial/overflow/zero-one-many/long-text), element-cue relevance filter, and `{explicit, backstop}` tiering; third adapter of the `probe-core` model (ADR-550 D7), run at ui-phase Step 9.5; the MIXED axis routes open UX (real-time/a11y/i18n-RTL) to `domain-probes.md` (#1867). |
| `honest-verifier.md` | Verify-time abstention on non-inferable (`backstop`) truths — the truth-axis mirror of the prohibition judgment-tier disposition (ADR-550 D4): a `backstop` truth the verifier can't confirm with explicit evidence abstains → `human_needed` (reason `insufficient_spec`), never a silent pass (#1154). |
| `gate-prompts.md` | Gate/checkpoint prompt templates. |
| `loop-hook-dispatch.md` | Generic dispatch contract for consuming `gsd_run loop render-hooks <point> --raw` output in any host-loop workflow — envelope shape, per-kind dispatch rules (contribution/step/gate), and liveness banner. |
| `scout-codebase.md` | Phase-type→codebase-map selection table for discuss-phase scout step (extracted via the discuss-phase/modes progressive-disclosure split, #717). |
| `revision-loop.md` | Plan revision iteration patterns. |
| `reviewer-instances.md` | Custom reviewer instances for `/gsd-review` (#1517) — same-adapter multi-model review: config shape, resolution rules, invocation, and the REVIEWS.md contract. Lazily loaded by `review.md` when `review.reviewer_instances` is configured. |
| `universal-anti-patterns.md` | Universal anti-patterns to detect and avoid. |
| `worktree-branch-check.md` | Canonical spawn-time worktree HEAD/base guard (worktree_branch_check): verify-only and fail-closed — per-agent-branch assertion, protected-ref refusal (#2924), and an exact-base assertion that halts with `exit 42` on mismatch so the orchestrator (worktree lifecycle owner) performs recovery (#48). Embedded into worktree sub-agent prompts at dispatch. |
| `runtime-aware-dispatch.md` | Runtime-aware subagent dispatch protocol (#2508 Phase 4 Option A): before any `Agent(subagent_type="gsd-*")` call, resolve the type via `gsd_run query resolve-dispatch-type --requested <name> --raw`. On named-dispatch runtimes (Claude/OpenCode/…) the name is returned unchanged; on built-in-only runtimes (kimi-code) it maps to `coder`/`explore`/`plan` by role-suffix. The persona rides `${AGENT_SKILLS_<ROLE>}` (Phase 3) regardless. Documents why a PreToolUse-remap hook (the epic's original Option B) is infeasible — Kimi Code's hook API supports only allow/deny, not tool_input rewriting. |
| `dispatch-isolation-gate.md` | Canonical gate deciding whether a dispatch site may run an agent isolated (#2584/#2652): resolves `ISOLATION` from the negotiated `dispatch.isolation` capability — never from a runtime id — fails closed to `none`, resolves the host's declared `harnessFlag` instead of hardcoding Claude Code's `isolation="worktree"` literal, and degrades single-agent sites to sequential on `orchestrator-worktree` hosts. Read by `quick.md`, `diagnose-issues.md`, and `execute-plan.md`. |
| `worktree-path-safety.md` | Executor path guards: supplied-root pin (step 0p, #4254 — every mode; execute-phase.md binds the orchestrator-validated root into sequential dispatches as `<project_root_pin>`), cwd-drift sentinel (step 0a, #3097), and absolute-path guard (step 0b, #3099) — loaded into executor spawn prompts via `<execution_context>`. |
| `untrusted-input-boundary.md` | Shared prompt-injection boundary (#1577) `@`-included by the 10 research/doc-ingest agents (`gsd-project-researcher`, `gsd-phase-researcher`, `gsd-ui-researcher`, `gsd-assumptions-analyzer`, `gsd-advisor-researcher`, `gsd-doc-classifier`, `gsd-doc-synthesizer`, `gsd-research-synthesizer`, `gsd-ai-researcher`, `gsd-domain-researcher`): treat fetched/read text as data-not-instructions, self-scan before use (PromptArmor 2507.15219), task-anchor (2504.20472), and fence quoted text with a fresh random delimiter per wrap (PPA 2506.05739). Prompt-level defense-in-depth (2503.00061); the hook scanner is a separate pattern pre-filter. |
| `artifact-types.md` | Planning artifact type definitions. |
| `phase-argument-parsing.md` | Phase argument parsing conventions. |
| `decimal-phase-calculation.md` | Decimal sub-phase numbering rules. |
| `workstream-flag.md` | Workstream active-pointer conventions (`--ws`). |
| `user-profiling.md` | User behavioral profiling detection heuristics. |
| `thinking-partner.md` | Conditional thinking-partner activation at decision points. |
| `autonomous-smart-discuss.md` | Smart-discuss logic for autonomous mode. |
| `autonomous-ui-design-contract.md` | Autonomous-mode step 3a.5 — resolve whether a frontend phase needs a UI-SPEC.md and generate one through active `plan:pre` hooks; always non-blocking. |
| `ios-scaffold.md` | iOS application scaffolding patterns. |
| `ai-evals.md` | AI evaluation design reference for `/gsd-ai-integration-phase`. |
| `api-coverage.md` | API-coverage gate reference (full-coverage-by-default) for the `ai-integration` capability's `verify:pre` blocking gate (#1562) — matrix format, trigger, tuning, detector CLI, and the seal-time outcome table naming every pass/block arm including `scope_unavailable` (#3909). |
| `ai-frameworks.md` | AI framework decision-matrix reference for `gsd-framework-selector`. |
| `executor-examples.md` | Worked examples for the gsd-executor agent. |
| `plan-checker-examples.md` | Worked example for the gsd-plan-checker agent (Scope Exceeded), moved out of the inline `<examples>` block to keep worked examples structurally separate from the agent contract, matching the other agents' reference layout. `@`-inlined at load (eager), so this costs ~0.6 KB of runtime context versus keeping it inline — a readability trade, not a size-cap remedy (#3724). |
| `doc-conflict-engine.md` | Shared conflict-detection contract for ingest/import workflows. |
| `execute-mvp-tdd.md` | Runtime gate semantics for execute-phase under TDD mode — pre-task failing-test verification, end-of-phase blocking review. |
| `mvp-concepts.md` | Cross-reference index for the six MVP-related reference files; maps each file to its purpose and which workflow loads it. |
| `verify-mvp-mode.md` | UAT framing rules for MVP-mode phases — user-flow-first ordering, deferred technical checks, user-story-format guard. |
| `compact-content-gate.md` | Shared compact-content gate (ADR-4139 Decision 3/4) — the `workflow.compact_content` check and detail-file resolution rule every compact-split workflow spine references, stated once. |
### Sketch References

| `sketch-tooling.md` | Floating toolbar utilities included in every sketch. |
| `sketch-variant-patterns.md` | Multi-variant HTML patterns (tabs, side-by-side, overlays). |
### Thinking-Model References

| `thinking-models-research.md` | Thinking-model patterns for research agents. |
| `thinking-models-verification.md` | Thinking-model patterns for verification agents. |
### Modular Planner Decomposition
The `gsd-planner` agent is decomposed into a core agent plus reference modules to fit runtime character limits.
| Reference | Role |
|-----------|------|
| `planner-antipatterns.md` | Planner anti-patterns and specificity examples. |
| `planner-chunked.md` | Chunked mode return formats (`## OUTLINE COMPLETE`, `## PLAN COMPLETE`) for Windows stdio hang mitigation. |
| `planner-gap-closure.md` | Gap-closure mode behavior (reads VERIFICATION.md, targeted replanning). |
| `planner-guidance.md` | Expository planner guidance: philosophy, task types/sizing, interface-first ordering, user setup, dependency graph, granularity calibration, and structured-return templates. |
| `planner-quick-batch.md` | Quick-batch mode behavior (#3676, epic #3344, ADR-1239 "Quick-batch binding"): `depends_on`/`files_modified` frontmatter ALWAYS required (never gated on `--validate`), referencing only sibling `quick_id`s from the batch task catalog — reuses the existing frontmatter grammar, no new keys. |
| `planner-reviews.md` | Cross-AI review integration (reads REVIEWS.md from `/gsd-review`). |
| `planner-revision.md` | Plan revision patterns for iterative refinement. |
| `planner-source-audit.md` | Planner source-audit and authority-limit rules. |
| `planner-mvp-mode.md` | Vertical-slice planning rules for MVP mode. |
| `planner-preconditions.md` | Emission rules for the optional `<precondition>` task element (issue #1949, Design by Contract): when to emit, the three cases (user_setup / prior-phase artifact / env-var), format, anti-patterns, and the contract triad mapping. |
| `planner-reversibility.md` | Canonical reversibility taxonomy for the optional `<reversibility>` task element (issue #1951): the three ratings (`reversible` / `costly` / `one-way`), the `checkpoint:decision` insertion rule for one-way doors, the `--no-reversibility-gates` override, and the checkpoint-fatigue anti-patterns. |
| `planner-human-verify-mode.md` | Rules for `workflow.human_verify_mode = end-of-phase`: suppress `checkpoint:human-verify` task emission and route deferred items via `<verify><human-check>`. |
| `planner-graphify-auto-update.md` | How `load_graph_context` surfaces `.last-build-status.json` auto-update state (running / failed / stale head) alongside the existing staleness annotation. Opt-in via `graphify.auto_update` (#3347). |
| `planner-interface-context.md` | Interface context rules for executors — how to extract key interfaces/types/exports from existing code and document new interfaces that downstream plans will consume. |
| `planner-load-graph-context.md` | Planner's load_graph_context step: knowledge-graph freshness + dependency-context query via the gsd_run launcher (extracted from gsd-planner.md). |
| `planner-verify-command-grounding.md` | Verify Command Grounding rules (#2401): inherit `prior_verify_commands` verbatim when the story repeats, prefer `npm --prefix <dir> run <script>` over `cd <dir> && npm run <script>`, and ground every authored path. |
| `planner-coupling.md` | Same-wave shared-mutable-state coupling rules (#3724): when non-file coupling requires `depends_on` or a re-wave, and the `coupling_justified` frontmatter declaration that plan-checker Dimension 3b recognizes for deliberately order-independent pairs. |
| `planner-failing-direction.md` | Stated Failing Direction rules (#3172): every runnable `<automated>` carries a `<fails_when>` sibling naming an observable failure signal, the pairing and placeholder rules, the `MISSING` sentinel exemption, and the authoring test ("if this command were silently doing nothing, what would tell me?"). |
| `skeleton-template.md` | SKELETON.md template emitted for new-project Walking Skeleton (Phase 1 + `--mvp`). |
| `user-story-template.md` | User story format for MVP planning — "As a / I want to / So that" structured fields. |
| `specless-probe-fallback.md` | Spec-less probe fallback protocol — gate (toggle + per-section absence via the shared `spec-section` helper), the deterministic edge probe (mirrors spec-phase 5.5), the in-planner prohibition recall, and the `must_haves` authoring lift; consumed by plan-phase step 7.95 when a phase SPEC omits `## Edge Coverage` / `## Prohibitions` (ADR-857 Phase 6). |
| `spidr-splitting.md` | SPIDR splitting decomposition rules for handling large user stories in MVP mode. |
> **Subdirectory:** `gsd-core/references/few-shot-examples/` contains additional few-shot examples (`plan-checker.md`, `verifier.md`) that are referenced from specific agents. These are not among the top-level references.

| `active-workstream-store.cjs` | Workstream source precedence and selection (CLI `--ws` > `GSD_WORKSTREAM` env > stored pointer); name validation and environment propagation |
| `adapter-declarative.cjs` | Declarative host-integration adapter — projects workflow artifacts through the install engine for hosts that declare a descriptor-driven surface (#1680) |
| `adapter-imperative.cjs` | Imperative host-integration adapter — binds the composed capability registry in-process for hosts that drive emission themselves (#1680) |
| `adr-parser.cjs` | ADR decision parser for plan-phase ingest express path; normalizes section synonyms, parses status/decision/scope fences, and enforces status rejection gates |
| `agent-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools agent` |
| `agent-install-check.cjs` | Agent-installation probe — owns `getAgentsDir` and `checkAgentsInstalled`, the single resolution the health-diagnostic agent-install rule consumes (ADR-857, #1268) |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/agent-install.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rule: agent-installation-completeness check (W010) — the single `checkAgentsInstalled` call site's four mutually exclusive conditions, ported behavior-preserving from `cmdValidateHealth` (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `api-coverage.cjs` | API-coverage detector + matrix validator (#1562, #2365) — pure `detectApiIntegration` (fail-closed: same-clause verb+noun signal + `<Service> API/SDK` surface naming a real service; strips fenced code, inline code, and path-shaped tokens; external hosts count, first-party route paths do not) and `validateCoverageMatrix`/`parseCoverageMatrix`/`renderCoverageMatrix` for the COVERAGE.md artifact (incl. the `No external API integration: <reason>` declaration); STDIN CLI (`echo "$SCOPE" \| node .../api-coverage.cjs [--json]`, exit 0=detected/1=none/NO_INPUT=empty-or-whitespace-only stdin/UNAVAILABLE=stdin read failed — registry codes, ADR-3889 Phase 3, #3907); consumed by the `ai-integration` capability's `plan:pre` contribution and blocking `verify:pre` gate (`check api-coverage.verify-pre`) |
| `artifacts.cjs` | Canonical artifact registry — known `.planning/` root file names; used by `gsd-health` W019 lint |
| `assumption-delta.cjs` | Detects identity-model assumption transitions in phase text for discuss-phase assumptions mode (#1561); STDIN CLI (`echo "$PHASE_SECTION" \| node .../assumption-delta.cjs [--json]`, exit 0=detected/1=none/NO_INPUT=empty-or-whitespace-only stdin/UNAVAILABLE=stdin read failed — registry codes, ADR-3889 Phase 3, #3907) |
| `audit-command-router.cjs` | ADR-959 capability command router for `gsd-tools audit-uat` and `gsd-tools audit-open` — extracted from hardcoded cases in `gsd-tools.cjs`; dispatches to `uat.cjs:cmdAuditUat` and `audit.cjs:{auditOpenArtifacts,formatAuditReport}`; phase 4d-impl-3 |
| `audit.cjs` | Audit dispatch, audit open sessions, audit storage helpers |
| `capability-activation.cjs` | Capability activation resolver shared by config validation and capability-state consumers — resolves registry-owned config keys from raw runtime config without re-centralizing migrated settings |
| `capability-command-router.cjs` | ADR-2346 P2 host command router for `gsd-tools capability` — relocated verbatim from the former 706-line `case 'capability':` arm in `gsd-tools.cjs`; dispatched via `HOST_COMMAND_ROUTERS` in `runCommand`'s default case; wires `capability-lifecycle`/`-trust`/`-consent`/`-state`/`-writer`; hand-authored CJS (sibling of `ensure-runtime-build.cjs`) |
| `capability-consent.cjs` | User-owned capability consent store (#1459) — bounded, non-throwing JSON store at `${GSD_HOME\|\|homedir()}/.gsd/consent.json` (NEVER under a repo) keyed by `${realpath(projectRoot)} <id>`; exports `consentStorePath`/`readConsentStore`/`hasProjectConsent` (matches iff integrity AND disclosureSignature both match)/`recordProjectConsent` (atomic+durable write)/`revokeProjectConsent`; the authoritative consent signal that gates PROJECT-scope third-party capability activation so a forged/cloned project ledger no longer activates anything until the user consents on THIS machine |
| `capability-lock.cjs` | Shared cross-process lock primitive (#1459 finding 4) — the SINGLE hardened lockfile protocol used by BOTH capability-lifecycle (`.gsd/capabilities/.lock`) and capability-consent (`.consent.lock`); exports `acquireLock(lockPath, opts?)`/`releaseLock(handle)` with pid + process-start-time liveness identity, a hard deadman, and token+inode owner-safe release — NEVER stale-steals a verified-live same-host holder, reclaims only a provably-dead/unverifiable holder, never deadlocks; `opts.maxAttempts`/`opts.waitForFresh` let the consent store serialize genuinely-contended writers; `_setLockProbes`/`_resetLockProbes` are test seams |
| `capability-ledger.cjs` | Per-runtime install ledger (ADR-1244 D4) — atomic read/write of `.gsd-capabilities.json` recording `{ id, version, source, integrity, files[], sharedEdits[] }` per installed capability; exports `readLedger`/`writeLedger`/`recordInstall`/`removeEntry`/`reconcile` (orphan detection)/`readSmallRegularFile` (utf8) + `readSmallRegularFileBuffer` (raw bytes, the byte-exact consent-hash reader, #1459 finding 1); atomic commit point and reconciliation basis for Phase-4 upgrade/remove |
| `capability-lifecycle.cjs` | Capability lifecycle orchestration (ADR-1244 Phase 4, D5+D6) — composes the source resolver + ledger + trust gate into `installCapability`/`upgradeCapability`/`removeCapability`/`reconcileCapabilities`; ledger write is the commit point; upgrade is atomic stage-then-swap (old set aside, new swapped in, ledger committed, backup dropped) with deterministic crash recovery (`reconcileCapabilities` rolls forward/back to a fully-old-or-fully-new state); remove surgically strips only marker-stamped (`_gsdCapability`) shared-config entries, preserving user hand-edits; never executes capability code |
| `capability-loader.cjs` | Runtime Capability Registry overlay (ADR-1244 D2) — `loadRegistry({ includeInstalled })` composes the frozen first-party registry with a validated installed overlay read from `$GSD_HOME/.gsd/capabilities/<id>/` (global) and `<projectRoot>/.gsd/capabilities/<id>/` (project); first-party-wins on id/skill/agent/config collisions, reserved-namespace rejection, load-time `engines.gsd` re-gate (skip-with-warning), and gate-kind fail-open via `_overlay.blockedGates` — a loud warning (stderr + envelope `warnings`) naming the load failure and `gsd capability remove <id>` remediation; no gate injected (#2009); composes through the canonical `buildRegistry` so derived views never drift |
| `capability-registry.cjs` | Generated central Capability Registry — role-partitioned index of all co-located capability declarations (`capabilities/<id>/capability.json`); emitted by `scripts/gen-capability-registry.cjs --write` (ADR-894 §5) |
| `capability-source.cjs` | Capability source resolver (ADR-1244 D3) — `resolveCapabilitySource(spec, opts)` fetches and stages a capability from local path, git (https/ssh/git transports only), npm pack (no lifecycle scripts), tarball (sha512 integrity verify before extraction), or registry (stub); tar-slip/symlink rejection; atomic staging to `$GSD_HOME/.gsd/capabilities/<id>/`; no capability code executes during install |
| `capability-state.cjs` | Unified capability-state resolver (ADR-857 phase 4b/6) — composes install profile, runtime surface, and config activation into one per-capability view consumed by workflow hook rendering; exports pure `resolveCapabilityState`, reusable `resolveCapabilityRuntimeState`, and I/O handler `cmdCapabilityState`; command surface: `gsd-tools capability state [--config-dir <path>]` emitting `{ runtimeConfigDir, capabilities[] }` |
| `capability-trust.cjs` | Capability trust gate (ADR-1244 Phase 4, D5 + compatibility half of D6) — PURE policy module: `discloseExecutableSurfaces` (hooks/command modules/mcpServers), `evaluateInstallTrust` (compose source policy + reserved-namespace + engines gate + disclosure → allowed/requiresConsent/blockReasons), `evaluateSourceAllowed` (`strict_known_registries`: permissive/lockdown/host-allowlist), `checkEngines` (engines.gsd hard gate + `compatVersions` graceful-downgrade), `executableSetChanged` (auto-update re-consent trigger); no sandbox — see `docs/explanation/capability-trust-model.md` |
| `capability-validator.cjs` | Shared runtime-callable capability validator (ADR-1244 D2) — extracted from `scripts/gen-capability-registry.cjs` so the build-time generator and the runtime overlay loader share ONE validation implementation (generative-parity guarded); exports `validateCapability`/`validateCrossCapability`/`validateVersionEnvelope`/`validateConsumesGlobal`/… plus the closed-vocabulary sets and `SEMVER_RE` |
| `broken-windows.cjs` | Broken-windows ledger library (issue #1950) — typed IR + I/O for `.planning/WINDOWS.md` (cross-phase defect register); pure `parseLedger`/`renderLedger`/`appendWindow`/`markWaived`/`markFixed`/`openCount` + I/O `cmdWindowsStatus`/`cmdWindowsAppend`/`cmdWindowsWaive`/`cmdWindowsMarkFixed`; frozen `REASON` enum for typed-error assertions; CLI surface `gsd-tools windows status\|append\|waive\|fixed`. Generated from `src/broken-windows.cts` |
| `capability-writer.cjs` | Capability State Writer (ADR-1213) — write-side inverse of the resolver; projects desired per-capability enabled/gates onto surface + config substrates, then re-resolves (assert-and-report); exports `setCapabilityState` and I/O handler `cmdCapabilitySet`; command surface: `gsd-tools capability set <id> [--on\|--off] [--gate <key>=<true\|false>]` |
| `check-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools check` |
| `tdd-red-evidence.cjs` | TDD RED-evidence classifier (issue #3770, compiled from `src/tdd-red-evidence.cts`, gitignored) — pure `classifyRedEvidence`/`buildRedEvidenceRecord`: only an intentional failure of the TARGET test (distinctly named, TAP-reported assertion failure with nonzero exit) is `RED_EVIDENCE_OK`; zero-test discovery, fixture/load crashes (file-named failures), nonzero exits without a failing test, unrelated failures, unexpected greens, and malformed records are `INVALID_RED` (fail-closed, never throws); CLI surface `gsd_run check tdd-red-evidence <record.json>` validates the persisted record (command, exit code, failing test, expected, actual) |
| `claude-orchestration-command-router.cjs` | ADR-959 capability command router for Claude orchestration — workflow-backend detection and emission (#1143) |
| `claude-orchestration.cjs` | Claude Orchestration capability (#1143) — Workflow-tool backend detection + emitter; `detectWorkflowBackend` fail-closed gate (`{available, backend: 'workflow'\|'inline', reason}`, degrades to today's inline behavior unless every gate opens) and `emitWorkflowScript` (maps GSD's wave/plan model onto Workflow primitives: wave → sequential `parallel()` barriers, plan → `agent(...)` with per-plan worktree isolation mirroring the inline path). Pure, zero external dependencies, never throws; never invokes the Workflow tool itself |
| `cli-exit.cjs` | `ExitError` class and `runMain()` helper — CLI entrypoints throw `ExitError` instead of calling `process.exit()`; `runMain()` translates the outcome into `process.exitCode` so output flushes cleanly |
| `cjs-command-router-adapter.cjs` | Shared compatibility adapter for manifest-backed CJS command-family routers |
| `cli-skew-check.cjs` | Detects version skew when a stale global CLI shadows the project-local install (#1754) |
| `host-integration-adapters/cline-sdk-binding.cjs` | Cline SDK binding — pure AgentPlugin `beforeTool` planning-artifact guard and `createAgentModel` model-override resolution adapters, no `@cline/sdk` import (ADR-1239 Phase D, #2090) |
| `clock.cjs` | Injectable clock seam (now/sleep) for deterministic lock testing |
| `clusters.cjs` | Skill cluster definitions for the runtime surface module (ADR-0011 Phase 2) |
| `code-review-depth.cjs` | Pure resolver for a code review's depth tier (#2554); exports `resolveCodeReviewDepth({ flagDepth, configDepth, overrides, files, repoRoot })` (→ `{ ok, depth, resolvedDepth, source, matchedRule, downgraded, fileCount }` or `{ ok: false, errors }`), the frozen `REASON` enum, `DEPTH_TIERS`, `LARGE_SCOPE_THRESHOLD`, and the matching primitives `normalizeRelPath`/`ruleMatchesFile`; resolves `--depth=` flag → strongest matching `workflow.code_review_depth_overrides` rule (segment-aware path prefix, no globs) → `workflow.code_review_depth` → `standard`, and owns the >50-file `deep`→`standard` downgrade |
| `code-review-flags.cjs` | Typed flag parser for `/gsd-code-review`; exports `parseCodeReviewFlags(argv)` (→ `{ fix, all, auto, depth, files }`) and `resolveCodeReviewWorkflow(flags)` (→ `'code-review.md' \| 'code-review-fix.md'`); canonical dispatch seam for `--fix`/`--all`/`--auto` routing |
| `codex-agent-toml.cjs` | Typed IR (genuine leaf) for `~/.codex/agents/<agent>.toml` — `parseCodexAgentToml`/`renderCodexAgentToml` round-trip byte-identically; `stripModel`/`stripReasoningEffort` remove exactly one targeted line; `scanTomlLines`/`stripBOM`/`findDeveloperInstructionsBlockRange`/`unquoteTomlValue` are the lenient reader primitives moved here from `agent-install-check.cjs` (#3242 Phase 2); consumed by the Codex `.toml` sync (`commands.cjs cmdEffortSyncCodex`, ADR-2313 D7, #3243) |
| `command-aliases.cjs` | Alias/subcommand metadata for manifest-backed family routers |
| `commonjs-marker.cjs` | Ownership-guarded `{"type":"commonjs"}` marker used to pin GSD's staged `.js` scripts to CommonJS; exports `classifyMarker` (absent/gsd-owned/foreign, fail-closed), `ensureCommonJsMarker`, and `removeCommonJsMarker` so install and uninstall share one predicate and never touch a user-authored `package.json` (#2544) |
| `command-arg-projection.cjs` | Strict, `Result`-returning flag and positional argument projection helpers shared across command-family routers — `parseNamedArgs` rejects unrecognized flags and stray positionals instead of silently dropping them (ADR-3473 §8.4, #3884). Generated from `src/command-arg-projection.cts` |
| `command-roster.cjs` | Read-only discovery of canonical `commands/gsd/*.md` command stems for runtime artifact conversion and namespace rewrites |
| `command-routing-hub.cjs` | Pure-result dispatch hub that centralizes mode decision (SDK vs CJS), error taxonomy, and no-throw contract for all command-family routers (#3788) |
| `commands.cjs` | Misc CLI commands (slug, timestamp, todos, scaffolding, stats) |
| `complexity-trigger.cjs` | Pure leaf for the complexity-triggered refactor capability — analyzer, evaluator, and baseline persistence; wrapped by `refactor-trigger-command-router.cjs` (#1953) |
| `config-loader.cjs` | Project config loading — defaults merge, legacy-key migration, workstream overlay, unknown-key/profile-override validation (extracted from `core.cjs`, ADR-857) |
| `config-schema.cjs` | Single source of truth for `VALID_CONFIG_KEYS` and dynamic key patterns; imported by both the validator and the config-schema-docs parity test |
| `config-types.cjs` | TypeScript type definitions for the `model_policy` config block — `ModelPolicyConfig`, `TierEntry`, `RuntimeTiers`; compiled from `src/config-types.cts` at publish time (ADR-457) |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/config-validation.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rules: config.json validation checks (W003, W004, W022, E005, W008, W012-W016), reading only `snapshot.config`, ported behavior-preserving from `cmdValidateHealth` (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `config.cjs` | `config.json` read/write, section initialization; imports validator from `config-schema.cjs` |
| `configuration.cjs` | Configuration Module — legacy-key normalization, defaults merge, and explicit on-disk migration; pure normalization primitives consumed by `config-loader.cjs` and `config-schema.cjs` (loadConfig extracted to config-loader per ADR-857 #885) |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/consistency.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rules for `validate.consistency` only (C001-C004: gap in disk phase numbering, gap in plan numbering within a phase, orphan SUMMARY with no matching live PLAN, PLAN missing `wave` frontmatter) — a new `C0NN` code namespace parallel to `validate.health`'s `E`/`W`/`I` space, ported behavior-preserving from `cmdValidateConsistency` (ADR-3180 §8.4, Phase 12, #3310) |
| `context-composer.cjs` | Shared budget-composition seam (ADR-1671, #2929) — `composeWithinBudget` trims an ordered fragment list to a measured budget and returns a PLAN of surviving fragments, never rendered text, so one seam serves both the review pipeline and per-runtime emission. Closed strategy set: `verbatim`, `head-shrink`, `proportional-truncate` (with a per-fragment floor), `drop`. The budget unit is injected via `measure(text)` — tokens for `prompt-budget`, bytes for emission — with `charsPerUnit` as its inverse. Also exports `headShrink`/`tailTruncate`. Compiled from `src/context-composer.cts` |
| `context-predicates.cjs` | CONTEXT.md predicate fact-store parser (ADR-1671, #2928) — pure `parsePredicates` (extracts every backtick-wrapped `CLASS.subkey=value` declaration, fence/HTML-comment-aware), `selectPredicates` (class/prefix/contains selectors, ANDed), and `buildIndex` (deterministic, line-free artifact shape); backs both `gsd_run query context-predicates` and `scripts/gen-context-index.cjs`'s docs/CONTEXT-INDEX.json drift guard. Compiled from `src/context-predicates.cts` |
| `context-utilization.cjs` | Pure classifier for `gsd-health --context` — turns (tokensUsed, contextWindow) into a `{ percent, state }` triage result against the 60%/70% fracture-point thresholds (#2792) |
| `core-utils.cjs` | Shared low-level utilities — POSIX path normalization, sub-repo/subdirectory scanning, phase file stats, slug/one-liner/plan-id helpers, time-ago (extracted from `core.cjs`, ADR-857) |
| `core.cjs` | Shared utilities and runtime fallbacks; compatibility re-exports for planning-workspace and I/O (`io.cjs`) helpers |
| `coverage.cjs` | Deterministic SUMMARY `coverage:` block parser/validator/classifier for `gsd-tools uat classify-coverage`; routes deliverables to auto-pass vs human-UAT with a fail-safe default (#1602) |
| `decisions.cjs` | Parses CONTEXT.md `<decisions>` blocks; accepts numeric (D-42) and alphanumeric (D-INFRA-01) IDs; returns `{id, text, category, tags, trackable}` |
| `docs.cjs` | Docs-update workflow init, Markdown scanning, monorepo detection |
| `drift.cjs` | Post-execute codebase structural drift detector (#2003): classifies file changes into new-dir/barrel/migration/route categories and round-trips `last_mapped_commit` frontmatter |
| `edge-probe.cjs` | Spec-completeness edge probe (compiled from `src/edge-probe.cts`, gitignored) — the first adapter of the `probe-core` resolution model (ADR-550 Decision 7): shape classification, applicable-category relevance filter, edge proposal, and the `{explicit, backstop}` verification validators; delegates merge/rollup/CLI to `probe-core`; exports `classifyShape`, `applicableCategories`, `proposeEdges`, `analyzeCoverage`, `validateResolution`, `TAXONOMY` (#550) |
| `embedding-adapter.cjs` | Defines the minimal `HostIntegrationInterface` contract every embedding adapter implements (#1680) |
| `eval-command-router.cjs` | Routes the `eval.score` verb (compiled from `src/eval-command-router.cts`, gitignored) — thin dispatcher into the eval scoring module (#1579) |
| `eval.cjs` | Deterministic eval scoring (compiled from `src/eval.cts`, gitignored) — `computeEvalScore` (coverage*0.6 + infra*0.4, bands 80/60/40) + `cmdEvalScore` CLI domain guard; moves the gsd-eval-auditor's weighted arithmetic out of the prompt into code (#10 / #1579) |
| `estimate-cli.cjs` | I/O seam over `phase-estimation.cjs` — the `estimate-check` and `estimate-calibration` query verbs; reads the `workflow.smart_zone_tokens` budget and `.planning/estimation-calibration.json`, both degrading to defaults rather than failing planning (#2630) |
| `exit-code-registry.cjs` | Generated exit-code allocator — one number, one meaning table of registered process exit codes (band rules: `2` hook-adapter only, `64`-`78` generic, `80`-`125` domain); emitted by `scripts/gen-exit-code-registry.cjs --write` (ADR-3889 §1/§2); exports `EXIT_CODES` and the pure, total `exitCodeFor`/`nameForExitCode` |
| `observability/event.cjs` | DispatchEvent shape factory for every Hub dispatch — traceId/parentTraceId/command/result/timestamp record consumed by DispatchLogger (#177, ADR-0174 P1.3/P1.4) |
| `external-descriptor-trust.cjs` | Defense-in-depth path-containment check for third-party plugin descriptors (#1681) |
| `external-job.cjs` | Produces scheduler manifests for asynchronous external jobs; SLURM is the first backend (#1164) |
| `fallow-runner.cjs` | Fallow audit adapter for `/gsd-code-review`: binary resolution (`node_modules/.bin` then `PATH`), actionable missing-binary errors, and structural findings normalization |
| `federated-config.cjs` | Defensive merge of capability-declared config slices into the loadConfig return value — ADR-857 phase 3b; exports `mergeFederatedConfig({ configSchema, isCentralKey, userConfig })` → `{ values, validKeys, warnings }`; live for migrated Capability keys that are atomically removed from the central config schema |
| `file-overlap-partitioner.cjs` | Generic greedy first-fit file-overlap partitioner (#3674) — `partitionByFileOverlap(items: {id, files}[]) → string[][]`, extracted from `claude-orchestration.cjs`'s `partitionStages` behavior-preserving; no `Plan`/`Wave` dependency, no path normalization, no dependency-graph ordering. Compiled from `src/file-overlap-partitioner.cts` |
| `frontmatter.cjs` | YAML frontmatter CRUD operations |
| `gap-checker.cjs` | Post-planning gap analysis (#2493): unified REQUIREMENTS.md + CONTEXT.md decisions vs PLAN.md coverage report (`gsd-tools gap-analysis`) |
| `gate-predicate-evaluator.cjs` | Evaluates capability gate predicates — `command-exit-zero` and `artifact-frontmatter` (#2008) |
| `git-base-branch.cjs` | Single base-branch resolver (`gsd_run query git.base-branch`) with full precedence ladder: effective-config override (`git.base_branch`, resolved through `config-loader.cjs`) → origin/HEAD symref → `git remote show origin` → local branch presence → "main". Eliminates per-workflow duplicated bash detection (#1146). Also hosts the protected-branch predicate `--is-protected <branch>` (#3552), which extends the resolved base branch with the optional `git.protected_branches` list, matches by exact name, fails closed when the base branch is unverified, and reads config with `persist: false` so the query never rewrites `.planning/config.json` |
| `graphify.cjs` | Knowledge-graph build/query/status/diff for `/gsd-graphify` |
| `graphify-command-router.cjs` | ADR-959 capability command router for `gsd-tools graphify` — dispatches build/query/status/diff subcommands; first real capability command cutover (phase 4d-impl-2) |
| `gsd2-import.cjs` | External-plan ingest for `/gsd-import --from-gsd2` |
| `handshake-serialized.cjs` | Serialized handshake for out-of-process host integration; JSON wire-safe (#1683) |
| `health-diagnostic-types.cjs` | Shared, dependency-free `SEVERITY`/`REMEDY_ACTION`/`REMEDY_RISK` enums and `Diagnostic`/`Remedy`/`Rule` types for `validate health` — split out of `health-diagnostic.cjs` so its rule-group files can depend on the enums/types without a CJS circular require back into the evaluator (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `health-diagnostic.cjs` | Frozen rule-table contract for `validate health` — `SEVERITY`/`REMEDY_ACTION`/`REMEDY_RISK` enums, `Diagnostic`/`Remedy`/`Rule` shapes, the fully-wired `RULES` table (the static concatenation of the 31 rules exported by the eight `health-diagnostic-rules/*.cjs` group files), `evaluateRules` (throws on duplicate rule codes), and `applyRepairs` (the real `--repair`/`--backfill` dispatcher with real per-action handlers — refuses `DESTRUCTIVE`-risk remedies) (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `hook-bus.cjs` | Abstracts the hook-bus ownership model — engine pub-sub, host-owned, or none (#1680) |
| `host-integration-sdk.cjs` | Versioned public API surface for external host-plugin authors (#1683) |
| `host-integration.cjs` | Host-Integration Interface (ADR-1239 Phase A) — negotiated capability contract over the six host-integration points; `negotiateHostCapabilities` fail-closes on undeclared/unknown/`undocumented` values, typed degradation ladder, host-capability profiles; the 8 `runtime.hostIntegration` axes are validated in `capability-validator.cjs` and sourced per-CLI in `docs/reference/host-integration-capability-matrix.md` |
| `host-runtime-detection.cjs` | Host Runtime Detection Module (ADR-2313 Phase 5, #3245) — the detection rung beneath `GSD_RUNTIME` and `.planning/config.json` `runtime` that lets `init` report `agent_runtime: codex` inside a Codex session instead of the hardcoded `claude` default; `detectHostRuntime` returns the typed `{runtime, source, signal}` from citation-backed Codex signals (`CODEX_SANDBOX`/`CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED`, else `CODEX_HOME` + `config.toml`), `resolveReportedRuntime` composes the full ladder. Pure, injectable, never writes, never shells out |
| `host-integration-adapters/imperative-hook-bus.cjs` | Imperative hook-bus adapter — descriptor-driven `hooks.json` binding generalized from the Cursor-specific writer, resolving the negotiated `hookBus` axis against a host's documented `hostBehaviors.managedHookEvents` list; pure, no I/O (ADR-1239 Phase D, #2089) |
| `init-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools init` |
| `init.cjs` | Compound context loading for each workflow type |
| `install-effort-resolver.cjs` | Install-time effort resolution — `readGsdEffectiveEffortConfig` (merges `~/.gsd/defaults.json` + project `.planning/config.json`) + `resolveInstallTimeEffort`, extracted from `bin/install.js` (#2071) so `gsd-tools effort sync` can require it from the shipped runtime instead of the never-copied package-root installer; install.js imports them back (single source) |
| `install-engine.cjs` | Runtime-artifact install engine — `installRuntimeArtifacts`/`uninstallRuntimeArtifacts`/`installOpencodeFamilySkills` + their helpers, extracted from `bin/install.js` (ADR-1239 Phase B, #1679); install.js imports them back and injects `getCommitAttribution` |
| `install-fs-adapter.cjs` | Install Fs Adapter — narrow, enumerated fs seam for the `installRuntimeArtifacts` call tree (#2874, epic #2866 Phase 5, ADR-58's never-landed `cleanup` rollout step); a single ambient adapter (real fs in production, an injectable fake in tests) is swapped for the duration of one synchronous install via `withInstallFs`, extending the `deps` bag precedent already established by Runtime Artifact Install Plan Module rather than threading a new parameter through every call site; routes destination IO only — package-source lookups (`findInstallSourceRoot`, `findAgentsSourceRoot`, `readGsdCommandNames`) are deliberately unrouted, by design, not by omission |
| `install-model-override-resolver.cjs` | Install-time per-agent model-override resolution (#2256 / #2794) — `model_overrides[agent]` > `model_profile_overrides.<runtime>.<tier>` > omit, extracted from `bin/install.js`'s inline agent-staging loop (#2875 Part 2 / J8), which duplicated this exact precedence chain across two runtime branches (OpenCode/Kilo); mirrors `install-effort-resolver.cjs`'s existing extraction precedent so the descriptor-driven agents pipeline and `bin/install.js`'s own callers resolve through the SAME single source of truth |
| `install-profiles.cjs` | Install profile allowlist + skill staging for `--minimal` install (#2762); single source of truth for which `gsd-*` skills/agents land in runtime config dirs |
| `install-scope.cjs` | Install Scope Module — `resolveScope({id,runtime,...})` resolves the `'global'\|'local'` install-scope axis into `{id, configHome, settingsFile, consentRequired, hostPrecedenceRank}`, composing `resolveConfigHomeFromDescriptor` (`runtime-homes.cjs`) rather than modifying it (#2870, ADR-2866) |
| `install-shadow-report.cjs` | Cross-Scope Shadow Report Module (#2873, epic #2866 Phase 4a) — read-only projection over `installed-surface-resolver.cjs`'s `resolveInstalledSurfaces`; `buildShadowReport(runtime, opts)` filters `resolveTriggerSurface`'s `shadowedBy` groups down to triggers whose underlying stem genuinely exists in BOTH scopes' own manifests (not merely the union), and `renderShadowReport` projects the typed IR into bounded, sanitized (`sanitizeForRender` strips ANSI/C0-C1/bidi overrides) operator-console lines; consumed by both the installer and the W028 health rule so install-time and `/gsd-health` report identically |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/install-surface-shadowing.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rule: cross-scope trigger shadowing check (W028) — projects `install-shadow-report.cjs`'s `ShadowReport` as a WARNING-severity, ADVISE/`risk:NONE` diagnostic (never auto-fixable), reusing `agent-install.cjs`'s W010 runtime-resolution shape; degrades to `[]` (never throws) when nothing is installable to report (#2873, epic #2866 Phase 4a) |
| `installed-surface-resolver.cjs` | Installed Surface Resolver — `resolveInstalledSurfaces(runtime?, opts?)` probes both install scopes for a runtime (or every registered runtime, sorted, when omitted), reads each scope's manifest, and resolves the trigger surface across only the scopes actually installed on this machine, composing `resolveScope` and `resolveTriggerSurface` rather than re-deriving either (#2872, ADR-2866 Phase 3); local-scope manifest read is `lstat`-guarded and refuses to follow a symlinked config dir or manifest, degrading that scope to `installed: false` rather than following (#2873) |
| `installer-migration-authoring.cjs` | Installer migration authoring guardrails for record metadata, explicit scopes, ownership evidence, and runtime contract citations |
| `installer-migration-report.cjs` | Installer migration report projection and blocked-action guard for install/update integration |
| `installer-migrations.cjs` | Installer migration planning, artifact classification, install-state persistence, journaled apply, and rollback helpers |
| `intel.cjs` | Codebase intel store backing `/gsd-map-codebase --query` and `gsd-intel-updater` |
| `intel-command-router.cjs` | ADR-959 capability command router for `gsd-tools intel` — extracted from the `case 'intel':` arm in `gsd-tools.cjs`; dispatches query/status/diff/snapshot/patch-meta/validate/extract-exports/update/api-surface subcommands; preserves `timeAgo` transform on `status.files[*].updated_at` in non-raw mode; phase 4d-impl-4 (last first-party cutover) |
| `io.cjs` | CLI I/O primitives — `output`/`error` emission, JSON-error mode, and large-payload temp-file spillover (extracted from `core.cjs`, ADR-857) |
| `learnings.cjs` | Cross-phase learnings extraction for `/gsd-extract-learnings` |
| `legacy-cleanup.cjs` | Detect and remove leftover get-shit-done-cc artifacts; exports `planLegacyCleanup` (pure scan) and `applyLegacyCleanup` (thin IO applier) that root out stale files from the old package across every GSD-managed runtime config directory (#607) |
| `observability/logger.cjs` | DispatchLogger interface + default implementation — silent on success, structured stderr JSON on error, opt-in `.gsd-trace.jsonl` audit file (`GSD_AUDIT=1`), args omitted unless `GSD_AUDIT_ARGS=1` (#177, ADR-0174 P1.3) |
| `loop-host-contract.cjs` | Generated Loop Host Contract — 12 loop points, per-step agent roles, and core artifacts for the five-step pipeline (discuss/plan/execute/verify/ship); emitted by `scripts/gen-loop-host-contract.cjs --write` (ADR-894 §3); consumed by `gen-capability-registry.cjs` |
| `loop-resolver.cjs` | Loop Extension Point resolver — ADR-857 phase 3c/6 registry-consuming query; given a canonical loop point, filters `byLoopPoint` by resolved Capability State plus config activation (`when` key traversal with prototype-pollution guard), returns `{ point, activeHooks, rendered }` envelope; `resolveLoopHooks` and `renderLoopHooks` are pure (no I/O); command surface: `gsd-tools loop render-hooks <point> [--config-dir <path>]` |
| `markdown-sectionizer.cjs` | Canonical markdown-structure parsing seam (ADR-1372, epic #1372) — pure, Node built-ins only; exports `stripFencedCode` (CommonMark-correct fence stripper, CRLF-safe), `stripInlineCode` (per-line CommonMark inline-code-span stripper, #2365), `tokenizeHeadings` (ATX headings outside fenced blocks), `collectSections`/`collectSection` (line-by-line section collection with `bodyStart`/`bodyEnd` offsets), `iterateBullets` (dash/checkbox/numbered markers), `extractTaggedBlocks` (inner text of `<tag>…</tag>` blocks, caller decides fence-stripping), `replaceSection` (pure character-offset body splice for read-modify-write callers), and `withSection` (resolve a section by heading/predicate and run an edit callback against ONLY its body, splicing the result back — ADR-2143 §4 bounded mutation); foundation for T0–T7 migration tiers retiring 8+ ad-hoc parsers |
| `markdown-table.cjs` | Canonical GFM table model + `TABLE_SCHEMAS` registry seam (ADR-2143, epic #2143) — pure, Node built-ins only; exports `parseMarkdownTable(sectionText) → Result<MarkdownTable>` (parses the first GFM pipe table, typed parse errors for ragged/malformed rows rather than silent coercion), `MarkdownTable` (`{columns, rows}`, rows addressed by column name), `Result<T>` (`{ok:true,value}\|{ok:false,reason}` — distinct from command-routing-hub's dispatch `Result`), `TABLE_SCHEMAS` (canonical column-header variants for `RoadmapProgress`/`RequirementsTraceability`/`QuickTasks`/`Security` tables), and `matchTableSchema(columns) → {id,label}\|null` (resolves parsed headers back to a canonical schema); consumed by `phase-lifecycle.cts`'s `deriveProgressFromRoadmap` (fixes #2137, the 5-column milestone-grouped Progress table) |
| `mcp-catalog.cjs` | Serves GSD workflows, references, and commands as MCP resources and prompts (#3072) |
| `mcp-server.cjs` | Minimal MCP server exposing the command surface and state IO to any MCP host (#1681) |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/milestone-archive-hygiene.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rules: milestone archive + root hygiene checks (W018, W019), ported behavior-preserving from `cmdValidateHealth` (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `milestone.cjs` | Milestone archival, requirements marking |
| `model-adapter.cjs` | Abstracts model routing — passive tier-based selection or active host-supplied resolution (#1680) |
| `model-catalog.cjs` | CJS adapter over the shared model catalog JSON; exports canonical runtime tier defaults, agent profile maps, alias maps, and routing metadata for all CLI consumers |
| `model-profiles.cjs` | Backward-compatible profile helpers derived from `model-catalog.cjs`; no longer owns its own model table |
| `model-resolver.cjs` | Model/effort resolution policy — resolves model, tier, granularity, effort, and fast-mode for an agent from config + model profiles/catalog (extracted from `core.cjs`, ADR-857) |
| `onboard-projection.cjs` | Projects the onboarding situation from docs, package, and codebase-map readiness (#1671) |
| `package-identity.cjs` | Generated single source for GSD's published-package coordinates (npm name, bin name, repo slug, changelog URL, manual-install command), derived from package.json; read by the update worker, `check-latest-version`, and installer (#498) |
| `package-legitimacy.cjs` | Registry-API package legitimacy verdicts (OK/SUS/SLOP) from npm/PyPI/crates, slopcheck optional |
| `pattern.cjs` | The pattern-construction seam — `escapeRegex` (delegates to the built-in `RegExp.escape`) and `literalPattern`; sole owner of building a `RegExp` from a runtime value (ADR-3212 §1, epic #3212 Phase 1, #3412) |
| `phase-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools phase` |
| `phase-estimation.cjs` | Pure phase-effort estimation — `estimate`/`actuals` schema parse+render, smart-zone budget classification, and estimate-vs-actual calibration (median ratio, clamped, sample-gated). Confidence is derived from calibration sample count, never self-rated (ADR-2629) |
| `phase-id.cjs` | Pure phase-id parsing/matching helpers — normalize, token match, milestone/phase-dir id parsing, phase-markdown regex builders (extracted from `core.cjs`, ADR-857) |
| `phase-lifecycle.cjs` | Pure-computation phase lifecycle helpers extracted from the phase-lifecycle SDK handler |
| `phase-locator.cjs` | Phase-directory search/location — active + archived phase-dir discovery, phase-id matching against the filesystem (extracted from `core.cjs`, ADR-857) |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/phase-structure.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rules: phase directory structure checks (W005, W023, I001, W009), ported behavior-preserving from `cmdValidateHealth` (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `phase.cjs` | Phase directory operations, decimal numbering, plan indexing |
| `phases-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools phases` |
| `plan-dependency-graph.cjs` | Shared halt-propagation over a plan's `depends_on` DAG — the single topological-order + halt-propagation engine used by both `phase.cjs`'s wave-grouping and `phase-locator.cjs`'s phase-location primitive, so the two can never diverge on which plans a halted plan blocks (#2830) |
| `plan-document.cjs` | Canonical parser for a `*-PLAN.md` document BODY (compiled from `src/plan-document.cts`, gitignored; #2790) — `parsePlanDocument(content, planPath?)` returns `<objective>`, the `<task>` block rows (with the legacy `## Task N` heading fallback), per-task `<files>`/`<acceptance_criteria>`/`<done>`, and the frontmatter scheduling metadata (`wave`, `depends_on`, `autonomous`, `agent_hint`, `files_modified`); frozen `TASK_KIND` (`AUTO`/`CHECKPOINT`) so a `checkpoint:*` block is reported as its own kind rather than a malformed auto task. Extracted from `cmdPhasePlanIndex`'s inline loop so `phase.plan-index` and `planning.inspect` cannot drift; the invariant `taskCount === tasks.length === (xmlTaskCount \|\| mdTaskCount)` is preserved byte-for-behaviour |
| `plan-drift-guard.cjs` | Classifies symbol-verification severity against the ADR-22 authority ladder |
| `plan-scan.cjs` | Canonical phase-plan scanner for detecting plan and summary files in flat and nested layouts (k014) |
| `planning-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router for `gsd-tools planning` (compiled from `src/planning-command-router.cts`, gitignored; #2790) — one subcommand, `inspect`; v1 accepts no arguments, so a stray positional or unknown flag is a fail-loud `ERROR_REASON.USAGE` rather than a silently-ignored one |
| `planning-inspect.cjs` | Read-only schema-v1 canonical planning snapshot (compiled from `src/planning-inspect.cts`, gitignored; #2790) — `buildPlanningInspect(cwd)` / `cmdPlanningInspect`; `PLANNING_INSPECT_SCHEMA_VERSION = 1` is the wire contract consumers must reject other values of. Composed from the ADR-3180 §7 owners plus `parsePlanDocument`/`parseRequirements`/`parseUatItems`, and read through the Markdown Sectionizer + Markdown Table Model seams; deliberately declares its own flat external schema rather than serializing the still-growing `PlanningSnapshot`. Frozen `INSPECT_DIAGNOSTIC`/`TASK_STATUS`/`PROVENANCE`/`AGREEMENT` enums carry every non-answer — unknown or conflicting evidence is reported with a coded diagnostic, never inferred |
| `planning-scope.cjs` | Frozen `SCOPE` discriminator (`COMPLETE`/`TRUNCATED`/`UNSCOPED`/`UNREADABLE`) distinguishing a genuinely-empty derivation from one computed over a truncated or unscoped input, so callers can branch on the difference instead of reading a plausible zero (ADR-3180) |
| `planning-snapshot.cjs` | Parsed projection of `.planning/` composed exclusively from the ADR-3180 §7 owners (milestone identity, phase enumeration, phase completion, plan/summary counting, STATE.md current-phase) — exposes only scope-carrying parsed values, never raw document text, so a diagnostic rule cannot re-derive a field's location (ADR-3180 §8.1) |
| `planning-workspace.cjs` | Planning path/workstream seam (`planningDir`, `planningPaths`, active-workstream routing, `.planning/.lock` orchestration) |
| `pristine-baseline.cjs` | Hash-first recovery for `gsd-pristine/` baselines stored at an unexpected path (compiled from `src/pristine-baseline.cts`, gitignored; #4145) — `findPristineByHash(pristineDir, recordedHash, skip?)` walks `gsd-pristine/` in deterministic sorted order, skips symlinks, and returns the first file whose SHA-256 equals the recorded `backup-meta.json.pristine_hashes` entry (the same authority the #3657 drift guard trusts); the `skip` set excludes canonical manifest-keyed paths so a relocation never consumes another file's canonical baseline. Shared by `verify-reapply-patches.cjs`'s `verifyFile` (read-only adoption when the strict join misses) and `install.js`'s `saveLocalPatches` (orphan relocation self-heal) so the two readers cannot drift apart again |
| `project-root.cjs` | Resolves a project root from a starting directory using four heuristics (own `.planning/` guard, `sub_repos` config, `multiRepo` flag, `.git` heuristic) |
| `profile-output.cjs` | Profile rendering, USER-PROFILE.md and dev-preferences.md generation |
| `profile-pipeline-command-router.cjs` | ADR-959 capability command router for the profile-pipeline command family — dispatches scan-sessions, extract-messages, profile-sample (pipeline phase) and write-profile, profile-questionnaire, generate-dev-preferences, generate-claude-profile, generate-claude-md (output phase); phase 6 cutover |
| `profile-pipeline.cjs` | User behavioral profiling data pipeline, session file scanning |
| `prompt-budget.cjs` | Pure token-budget accounting for review prompts — estimates tokens, applies deterministic trim priority (head-shrink PROJECT.md, proportional plan truncation, drop context/research/requirements, hard-fail guard), returns structured metadata for `review.max_prompt_tokens` (#3081) |
| `quick-batch-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router for `gsd-tools quick-batch` (#3676, Phase 4 of epic #3344 / ADR-1239 "Quick-batch binding"; compiled from `src/quick-batch-command-router.cts`, gitignored) — a first-party, always-on command family wired directly into `HOST_COMMAND_ROUTERS` (like `state`/`phase`), NOT the opt-in capability-registry/`activationKey` path `graphify` uses. Verbs: `create`/`update`/`resume`/`complete` (thin wrappers over `quick-batch.cjs`'s durable manifest read/write) and `effective-concurrency`/`merge-eligible`/`spawn-plan`/`verification-routing`/`merge-routing`/`cleanup-entry`/`parse-args` (thin wrappers over `quick-batch-dispatch.cjs`'s pure decision logic). Follows `graphify-command-router.cts`'s `routeHubCommandFamily` shape, which gives the Hub's `makeUnknownCommand` handling for free on an unrecognized subcommand |
| `quick-batch-dispatch.cjs` | Quick-batch dispatch decision core (#3676, Phase 4 of epic #3344 / ADR-1239 "Quick-batch binding"; compiled from `src/quick-batch-dispatch.cts`, gitignored) — PURE decision logic consumed by the `/gsd-quick-batch` workflow markdown: `parseQuickBatchArgs` (rejects `--discuss`/`--full`, validates `--jobs auto\|N`, before any dispatch), `computeEffectiveConcurrency` (`min(taskCount, jobsN, capacity)`, `isolation:'none'` forces a MUTATING wave to concurrency 1, a non-mutating research-only wave is unaffected), `computeMergeOrder` (deterministic wave-order merge prefix — never completion order, an out-of-order finisher waits), `computeSpawnPlan` (backpressure — a refused/capacity-exhausted spawn returns to `pending`, never increases fan-out, never `failed`), `routeVerificationOutcome`/`routeMergeOutcome` (small explicit state-transition functions for `human_needed`/`gaps_found`/`merge_failed`/`scope_violation` routing — a scope violation or merge failure always preserves the worktree), and `buildCleanupManifestEntry` (derives a `worktree.cleanup-wave` entry's `files_modified`/`declared_deletions` FRESH from an item's own PLAN.md via the existing `parsePlanDocument`, never from `BATCH.json`). No `Agent()` dispatch, no `git worktree` I/O — those stay in workflow markdown |
| `quick-batch.cjs` | Quick-batch core primitives (#3675, ADR-1239 "Quick-batch binding") — task-list parsing (inline + path-confined `--file`), collision-safe `YYMMDD-xxx` quick-id preallocation under `withPlanningLock` (checked against both on-disk `.planning/quick/` entries and sibling `.planning/quick-batches/*/BATCH.json` manifests), `BATCH.json` schema/validation/resume (fail-closed on corrupt JSON, schema violations, out-of-batch dependency references, cycles, or a missing worktree path), deterministic wave construction combining dependency-DAG layering with `partitionByFileOverlap` over normalized `planned_files`, and exactly-once STATE.md completion via `hasQuickTaskRow`'s own idempotency check ahead of the unmodified `appendQuickTaskRow`. Also exports `updateBatchItems` (#3676) — the ONE additive post-planning mutator: applies caller-resolved `depends_on`/`planned_files` updates, recomputes `wave` for every item via the existing `computeWaves`, and fails closed WITHOUT persisting on an unknown item, an unknown/self dependency, or an introduced cycle, inside the SAME `withPlanningLock` transaction shape `resumeBatch`/`completeQuickItem` already use — never a second, independent writer against `BATCH.json`. No agent dispatch, no worktree creation, no user-facing command — Phase 4/#3676's job. Compiled from `src/quick-batch.cts` |
| `observability/redaction.cjs` | Arg redaction policy for dispatch events — args omitted from every emitted event by default, opt-in verbatim inclusion via `GSD_AUDIT_ARGS=1`; stateless env read, no module-level caching (#177) |
| `real-home-guard.cjs` | Real-home confinement guard (#3712; renamed from `test-home-guard.cjs` — a source filename matching Node's `test-*` convention is collected and executed as a test by the remote runner) — refuses any of the six writers that resolve a kind `home` — `installRuntimeArtifacts`, `uninstallRuntimeArtifacts`, `applySurface`, `migrateLegacyDevPreferencesToSkill`, plus the descriptor-dependent `installOpencodeFamilySkills` and `installAgentsKindStandalone` when a `node --test` run would resolve a kind's global `home` override (codex skills -> `$HOME/.agents`, ADR-1239/#2088) inside the real passwd home, which silently pruned every `gsd-*` skill there; compares homes by filesystem identity (`st_dev`+`st_ino`) rather than by pathname, since a case-variant, symlinked, or bind-mounted HOME names one directory under two names; fails CLOSED unless both homes identify or one is definitively absent (the pathname-equality shortcut in `sameDirectory` can answer yes without identifying, so the marker branch requires the marker to identify separately before it may allow anything); a destination inside the real home is exempted only when HOME differs from the passwd home, the passwd home is not itself beneath that HOME (`/Users`, `C:\Users` are not sandboxes), and the destination resolves beneath it (Windows puts the temp root inside the home, so containment alone cannot tell a sandbox from the danger); where no passwd entry is readable it falls back to `sandboxHome()`'s path-valued marker, which must identify AND contain every resolved destination — a marker matching HOME attests only that HOME was sandboxed, so on its own it waved through a layout captured before the sandbox that still named the real `~/.agents`; it remains a deliberate weakening rather than a closed door, since nothing there can contradict a marker naming the real home; does not defend against a subordinate bind mount of the real directory into the sandbox (realpath cannot unify bind-mounted spellings) or a cross-process TOCTOU swap; inert for normal installs outside a Node test context |
| `refactor-trigger-command-router.cjs` | ADR-959 capability command router for `gsd-tools refactor` (issue #1953) — dispatches evaluate/status/accept/decline subcommands for the complexity-triggered refactor capability; owns capability-activation gating, git invocation (via the `git-base-branch.cjs` `phaseStartCommit`/`changedFilesSince` adapters), config reads, phase-directory resolution, and the optional broken-windows ledger integration around the pure `complexity-trigger.cjs` leaf |
| `research-provider.cjs` | Research provider waterfall, confidence tiers, and planResearch (cache-hits + fetch plan) |
| `research-store.cjs` | Content-addressed research cache: sha256 keys, per-source TTL staleness, two-tier (user ~/.gsd / project .planning) store |
| `resolution.cjs` | Defines the `Resolution` envelope carried by config-reading verbs, with provenance (#1411) |
| `retired-artifact-cleanup.cjs` | Manifest-safe cleanup for descriptor-declared retired runtime artifact surfaces; shared by install and profile/surface apply so removed layout kinds converge without deleting modified or unknown user files (#2644) |
| `probe-core.cjs` | Generic spec-phase probe resolution model (compiled from `src/probe-core.cts`, gitignored; ADR-550 Decision 7) — the status×verification re-cut (`status: resolved/dismissed/unresolved` × per-probe `verification`), `validateResolution`/`validateRequirement`, `analyzeCoverage(items, resolutions?, validators)` merge/rollup/orphan-reject, the `byVerification` rollup, and the `runProbeCli` I/O scaffold; the shared seam consumed by `edge-probe` (and the prohibition probe #644); exports `VALID_STATUS`, `validateResolution`, `validateRequirement`, `analyzeCoverage`, `runProbeCli` (#550) |
| `prohibition-enforcement.cjs` | Deterministic test-tier prohibition PRODUCER/gate (compiled from `src/prohibition-enforcement.cts`, gitignored; #1259, ADR-550 D5d "heavy half") — locates the wired mechanical check (`node-test` or `lint-rule`), confirms it is fail-first, runs it via an injectable runner, builds typed `enforcementEvidence`, and emits the `dispositionForProhibition` verdict; a passing wired check disposes green, a missing/failing/non-fail-first check hard-gates (flagged, non-green) in both interactive and autonomous modes; exports `runProhibitionEnforcement`, `routeProhibitionEnforcement`; CLI surface `gsd_run check prohibition-enforcement <request.json>` |
| `review-lane-descriptor.cjs` | Declared reviewer-lane contract (compiled from `src/review-lane-descriptor.cts`, gitignored; ADR-2782) — the frozen `REVIEWER_LANES` roster, the lane slug grammar, and two pure parity gates: `checkReviewerLaneParity` (descriptor ↔ roster ↔ registry, plus anti-parity against re-added bespoke workflow legs) and `checkReviewerDocsParity` (declared flags and section titles ↔ `docs/COMMANDS.md`, `docs/FEATURES.md` and their locale mirrors; #2800, closes #2781/#2272); exports `REVIEWER_LANES`, `PARITY_VIOLATION`, `DOCS_PARITY_VIOLATION`, `LANE_SLUG_RE` |
| `review-lane-invocation.cjs` | Pure projection from a declared reviewer lane plus resolved config to a concrete invocation plan (compiled from `src/review-lane-invocation.cts`, gitignored; ADR-2782 Phase 5b) — no filesystem, network or clock; config arrives through a `configGet` seam; exports `resolveLanePlan`, `LANE_UNAVAILABLE` |
| `review-lane-runner.cjs` | Execution of a reviewer-lane invocation plan (compiled from `src/review-lane-runner.cts`, gitignored; ADR-2782 Phase 5b) — probe, spawn or HTTP call, empty-output policy, egress-host check, and dispatch of the three first-party `handler` modules; exports `runLane`, `probeLane`, `checkEgressHost`, `writeReviewOrStub` |
| `reviewer-step-dispatch.cjs` | Shared reviewer-step interpreter (compiled from `src/reviewer-step-dispatch.cts`, gitignored; #4209) — reuses `resolveReviewerSelection`/`resolveLanePlan`, builds a metadata-only source-review prompt, fails closed on path/provenance/budget violations before any lane invoke; exports `dispatchReviewerLanes`, `buildSourceReviewPrompt` |
| `review-reviewer-selection.cjs` | Reviewer selection/normalization helpers for `/gsd-review` default reviewer policy and precedence |
| `roadmap-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools roadmap` |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/roadmap-disk-consistency.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rules: ROADMAP-vs-disk phase directory consistency checks (W006, W007), both resolved through the shared `matchPhaseDirs` matcher, ported behavior-preserving from `cmdValidateHealth` (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `roadmap-parser.cjs` | ROADMAP.md parsing — milestone slicing, current-milestone extraction, phase/milestone lookups, milestone-phase filter (extracted from `core.cjs`, ADR-857) |
| `roadmap-upgrade.cjs` | Migration tool for converting legacy `Phase N` entries to milestone-prefixed `Phase M-NN` convention; `computeMigrationPlan` + `applyMigration` with dry-run default and atomic rollback |
| `roadmap.cjs` | ROADMAP.md parsing, phase extraction, plan progress |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/root-existence.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rules: root `.planning/` existence + PROJECT.md checks (E002-E004, W001), ported behavior-preserving from `cmdValidateHealth` (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `runtime-artifact-conversion.cjs` | Runtime artifact conversion module — projects Claude-authored commands, agents, and skills into runtime-specific artifact bodies while preserving installer compatibility exports |
| `runtime-artifact-install-plan.cjs` | Runtime artifact install plan module — stages pre-resolved layout kinds, applies runtime body rewrites, and returns copy-plan items plus cleanup obligations |
| `runtime-artifact-layout.cjs` | Runtime artifact layout module — resolves the artifact directory shapes (commands, agents, skills) for each supported runtime; single source of truth for per-runtime artifact placement (#3663) |
| `runtime-config-adapter-registry.cjs` | Explicit runtime config adapter registry — resolves per-runtime config-mutation install intent (install surface, shared-settings gate, finish-phase permission writer); see ADR-58. |
| `runtime-hooks-surface.cjs` | Runtime hooks surface module — standalone hook-surface writer functions extracted from bin/install.js (ADR-857 phase 5f-1); owns Cline/Cursor/Copilot/Codex hook artifact generation and reconciliation. |
| `runtime-name-policy.cjs` | Runtime name normalization policy — canonical token sanitization for runtime identifiers used in path construction and display |
| `runtime-homes.cjs` | Canonical runtime → global config/skills directory mapping; first-class support for all 15 runtimes including Hermes nested layout and Cline rules-based exclusion (#3126) |
| `runtime-identity.cjs` | Runtime identity surface (#3146) — exports `classifyIdentityProbe` (pure, total; `(stdout, exitCode, spawnFailed, timedOut)` → `ok`/`identity_mismatch`/`no_identity_verb`/`unparseable`/`probe_failed`), `buildIdentityPayload`, `explainVerdict`, and the launcher gate's vocabulary — frozen `IDENTITY_STATUS` (`ok`/`unverified`), `statusForVerdict`, and the anchored `IDENTITY_RAW_PREFIX`; backs the `runtime-identity` verb, which the launcher preamble probes once before any verb runs (#3841) and which also serves as a manual diagnostic for telling this package's `gsd-tools` apart from the predecessor's colliding binary. The `PATH` route is closed structurally by resolving `gsd_run` rather than `gsd-tools`; the path-based branches are covered by that assertion |
| `runtime-slash.cjs` | Runtime-aware slash-command formatter — single source of truth for emitting `/gsd-<cmd>` (skills-based runtimes) and `$gsd-<cmd>` (codex) in user-facing output and persisted artifacts (#3584) |
| `schema-detect.cjs` | Schema-drift detection for ORM patterns (Prisma, Drizzle, Supabase, TypeORM, Payload); exports `detectSchemaFiles`, `detectSchemaOrm`, `checkSchemaDrift`, `SCHEMA_PATTERNS`, `ORM_INFO` |
| `secrets.cjs` | Secret-config masking convention (`****<last-4>`) for integration keys; exports `SECRET_CONFIG_KEYS`, `isSecretKey`, `maskSecret`, `maskIfSecret` |
| `section-manifest.cjs` | Pure `when=` evaluator over `InvocationFacts` (ADR-1671, epic #1671 Phase 5, #2932) — `selectSections` partitions a document-order list of parsed `gsd:section` sections into `included`/`excluded` id arrays for one concrete invocation, via `WHEN_PREDICATES`, a total lookup (never a parser) over the frozen `WHEN_VOCABULARY` imported unchanged from `workflow-fragments.cjs`; an unrecognized `when=` value fails closed (`REASON.UNKNOWN_WHEN`), and a coordinated-change guard at module load throws if a vocabulary entry has no predicate. Compiled from `src/section-manifest.cts` |
| `semver-compare.cjs` | Shared semver comparison policy helpers (`compareSemverCore`, stable-triplet validation, normalized tuple parsing) consumed by update-check hooks, statusline dev-install detection, and changeset extract range logic (#10) |
| `security.cjs` | Path traversal prevention, prompt injection detection, safe JSON/shell helpers |
| `shell-command-projection.cjs` | Runtime-aware shell command projection for managed hook serialization: decides PowerShell call-operator usage by runtime/platform and normalizes Windows script path tokens |
| `smart-entry.cjs` | Classifies workflow state into the enumerated smart-entry situations and their next actions (ADR-1787) |
| `spec-section.cjs` | SPEC section-status helper (compiled from `src/spec-section.cts`, gitignored) — the single source of truth for the canonical SPEC headings (suffix-tolerant) and markdown-table row counting; `specSectionStatus`/`countSectionDataRows` decide per-section "supplied" for plan-phase's spec-less probe fallback, replacing ad-hoc awk (contract pinned by `tests/spec-section.test.cjs`) |
| `stale-bake-guard.cjs` | Warns when configuration changes after a static-frontmatter runtime bake (#1688) |
| `state-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools state` |
| `state-contract.cjs` | Machine-readable state contract v1 published to `.planning/state.json` at every step boundary (compiled from `src/state-contract.cts`, gitignored; #3227) — `buildStateContract(cwd, deps?)` is pure, `publishStateContract(cwd, deps?)` writes and never throws. `contract: "1.0.0"` is the wire version consumers gate on; frozen `PHASE_STATUS` (`complete`/`in_progress`/`pending`) and `PUBLISH_REASON` (`published`/`no_planning_dir`/`write_failed`) are the closed vocabularies. Composed from `locateProgressTable`, `getMilestoneInfo` and `classifyProject` so it can never disagree with GSD's own progress counters or front-door routing; owners are required lazily to avoid the `state → state-contract → smart-entry → state` require cycle. Best-effort by contract: it cannot change the exit code, stdout, or success of the boundary command that triggered it |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/state-consistency.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rules: STATE.md consistency checks (W002, W011, W021, W026) against config/ROADMAP/disk, ported behavior-preserving from `cmdValidateHealth`; W024 (state_head freshness) is a documented gap, deliberately not migrated (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `state-io.cjs` | Abstracts state IO modes — filesystem, sandboxed storage, or session log (#1680) |
| `state-transition.cjs` | Implements the STATE.md field-classification table and the pure `transitionCore` mutation path (#1769) |
| `state-md-schema.cjs` | The STATE.md field schema (compiled from `src/state-md-schema.cts`, gitignored; ADR-3473 §8.8, #3873) — one frozen, null-prototype `STATE_FIELD_SCHEMA` row per STATE.md key (type, cardinality, source, preservation, guard, mergeStrategy, body source/label, accepted value shapes, emitted-vs-guarded), replacing three previously hand-maintained tables (`FIELD_CLASSIFICATION` / `FRONTMATTER_BODY_SOURCE` in `state-transition.cjs`, `FRONTMATTER_KEY_TO_BODY_LABEL` in `state.cjs`) that now project from it at load time with byte-identical shape/order. Leaf module: imports from neither of its two consumers, avoiding the CJS require-cycle `health-diagnostic-types.cjs` was split out to break |
| `state.cjs` | STATE.md parsing, updating, progression, metrics |
| `state-document.cjs` | Pure STATE.md field extraction, replacement, status normalization, and progress calculation transforms |
| `milestone-lock.cjs` | Milestone lock (compiled from `src/milestone-lock.cts`, gitignored) — advisory (phase, session id) claim over STATE.md's single Current Position slot: `.planning/milestone.lock` claim IO, liveness (TTL + heartbeat), conflict detection, and the shared stderr warning; consumed by `state.begin-phase` / `state.advance-plan` / `phase.complete` so parallel phases in one working tree get a visible conflict instead of silently overwriting each other (#3311) |
| `surface.cjs` | Runtime surface module — manages the runtime enable/disable surface state independently of the install-time profile marker (ADR-0011 Phase 2) |
| `task-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools task`; `resolve-content` subcommand resolves a task's `tracker-id` via `task-content-resolution.cjs` (ADR-3646, #3970) |
| `task-content-resolution.cjs` | Resolves a task's `tracker-id` to external-tracker content via a capability-declared `taskContentResolver` and a bounded subprocess call; hard-halts on ambiguous/failed/timeout/malformed resolution (compiled from `src/task-content-resolution.cts`, gitignored) (ADR-3646, #3970) |
| `teams-status.cjs` | Detects agent-teams status from environment and runtime; pure core (#1355) |
| `template.cjs` | Template selection and filling with variable substitution |
| `text-lines.cjs` | Line-terminator handling seam — `splitLines`/`normalizeEol`/`detectEol`/`joinLines`, the sole owner of `\r?\n` splitting and CRLF normalization; closes #3360's split-then-match fix in `frontmatter.cjs` (ADR-3212 §3, epic #3212 Phase 2, #3413) |
| `token-scanner.cjs` | Tokenizer-first seam for stateful grammars — `tokenizeShellLike` (quote-aware shell tokenizer, the primitive `hooks/lib/git-cmd.js` migrated onto) and `indentWidth` (bullet-nesting depth, closes #3169's cross-reference-vs-declaration false positive in `decisions.cts`) (ADR-3212 §4, epic #3212 Phase 3, #3414) |
| `normalize-test-command.cjs` | Normalizes a resolved test command to a one-shot form so a watch-mode runner (vitest/jest) cannot hang a verification gate (#1857); shared by all three live test-command gates (regression, post-merge, audit-fix) |
| `uat.cjs` | UAT file parsing, verification debt tracking, audit-uat support |
| `uat-predicate.cjs` | UAT-passed predicate — markdown-aware evaluation of HUMAN-UAT results; returns pass only when all required checks pass; ignores false-positive contexts (frontmatter, fenced code, blockquotes, HTML comments) |
| `ui-consideration-probe.cjs` | Spec-completeness UI-consideration probe (compiled from `src/ui-consideration-probe.cts`, gitignored) — the third adapter of the `probe-core` resolution model (ADR-550 Decision 7): element-kind classification, applicable-category relevance filter, consideration proposal, `proposeElements`/`autoResolve` (propose-then-confirm + the `--auto` never-dismiss floor), and the `{explicit, backstop}` validators; delegates merge/rollup/CLI to `probe-core`; exports `classifyElement`, `applicableCategories`, `proposeConsiderations`, `proposeElements`, `autoResolve`, `analyzeCoverage`, `UI_TAXONOMY` (#1867) |
| `ui-safety-gate.cjs` | Shell-free word-boundary UI token detector (#3706, #3718); reads phase-section text from stdin, exits 0 (UI found), 1 (no UI — real input, examined), NO_INPUT (empty/whitespace-only stdin) or UNAVAILABLE (stdin read failed) — the latter two are registry codes (ADR-3889 Phase 3, #3907); also deployed to `gsd-core/bin/lib/` so the GSD installer ships it to `$RUNTIME_DIR` (#448) |
| `ui-frontend-evidence.cjs` | Static frontend-evidence detector (compiled from `src/ui-frontend-evidence.cts`, gitignored) — plan-time structural corroboration for `computeUiPlanGate` (#3312): a `package.json` UI-framework dependency or a component-framework file (`*.tsx/*.jsx/*.vue/*.svelte`) in the tree, so a UI-token match on a hyphenated proper noun (e.g. repo `dashboard-financeiro`) cannot block planning in a repo with no frontend; mirrors the post-wave `computeUiSafetyGate` git-diff corroboration |
| `unusable-input.cjs` | Deduplicates stderr diagnostics for corrupt or unreadable configuration (#1879) |
| `update-context.cjs` | Pure install-context resolver for `/gsd-update` — runtime/scope/config-dir/version detection (LOCAL/GLOBAL/UNKNOWN) ported from update.md bash; backs `gsd-tools update-context` (#498) |
| `user-artifact-staging.cjs` | Durable, on-disk staging for `USER_OWNED_ARTIFACTS` across the preserve → wipe → restore window (compiled from `src/user-artifact-staging.cts`, gitignored; #2875, epic #2866 Phase 6, ADR-3574) — closes #1874-F19 (in-memory-only preservation lost on a crash between wipe and restore); `recoverOrphanedUserArtifacts` is wired at the start of `bin/install.js`'s `install()` so an orphaned staged copy from a prior crashed run is recovered before the ordinary preserve step, closing the #1879-F15 inert-fix failure mode; exports `stageUserArtifacts`, `restoreStagedUserArtifacts`, `discardStagedUserArtifacts`, `recoverOrphanedUserArtifacts` |
| `validate-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools validate` |
| `validate.cjs` | Pure phase variant normalization helpers (`phaseVariants`, `buildRoadmapPhaseVariants`, `buildNotStartedPhaseVariants`) used by `verify.cjs` for W006/W007 checks; no I/O, no async |
| `verification-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools verification` |
| `verification.cjs` | Verification-status routing — consolidates pass/gaps_found/human_needed status from phase verifier-emitted VERIFICATION.md frontmatter (#651) |
| `verify-command-grounding.cjs` | Verify-command path-resolvability probe (#2401) — pure `extractAutomatedCommands` (`<automated>` blocks + owning task, ReDoS-safe), `resolveVerifyCommandTarget` (grounds a leading `cd <literal>` chain or `npm --prefix <literal>` against the project root; three-state `ok`/`broken`/`unresolvable` plus `not_applicable`/`pending_creation`), `probePhaseVerifyCommands` (per-phase report backing `gsd-tools check verify-command-paths`), `harvestPriorVerifyCommands` (nearest prior phase's commands, surfaced to the planner ungated by `context_window`), and the failing-direction probe (#3172) — `extractFailingDirections` (pairs each `<fails_when>` to the nearest preceding `<automated>` in one document-order pass, first-wins), `resolveFailingDirection` (closed 6-atom status `ok`/`missing`/`empty`/`placeholder`/`sentinel`/`orphan`), and `probePhaseFailingDirections` (per-phase report backing `gsd-tools check verify-failure-directions`). Never executes command text — PLAN.md is model-authored — and never prescribes a replacement path or a failure statement. Compiled from `src/verify-command-grounding.cts` |
| `verify-command-router.cjs` | Thin CJS subcommand router adapter for `gsd-tools verify` |
| `verify.cjs` | Plan structure, phase completeness, reference, commit validation |
| `workflow-fragments.cjs` | In-file `<!-- gsd:section id= when= -->` marker parser/composer for GSD workflow markdown (ADR-1671, #2930) — `parseWorkflowSections` (fence/HTML-comment-aware document partition into explicit/gap sections, fail-closed on malformed/unclosed/nested/duplicate markers or an unknown `when=`), `toFragments` (maps sections to `context-composer.cjs` `verbatim` fragments — non-lossy by construction), and `renderFragments`/`composeWorkflow` (compose-within-budget then join, run BEFORE per-runtime converters so a marker attribute never reaches a path-rewrite regex). `WHEN_VOCABULARY` is a frozen 4-atom applicability set (`always`, `flag:--wave`, `state:gap-closure-phase`, `state:has-prior-phases`); widening it is an ADR amendment, not an organic edit. Compiled from `src/workflow-fragments.cts` |
| `workstream-inventory-builder.cjs` | Pure workstream inventory projection builder |
| `workstream-inventory.cjs` | Shared workstream inventory projection: state fields, phase/plan/summary counts, roadmap phase count, and active marker — thin orchestrator that delegates pure projection to `workstream-inventory-builder.cjs` |
| `workstream-name-policy.cjs` | Canonical workstream name validation (`isValidActiveWorkstreamName`, `hasInvalidPathSegment`, `validateWorkstreamName`) and slug normalization (`toWorkstreamSlug`) |
| `workstream.cjs` | Workstream CRUD, migration, session-scoped active pointer |
| `worktree-base-ref.cjs` | Worktree base-ref drift detection and degrade decision (`evaluateWorktreeBaseDegrade`) plus no-clobber `worktree.baseRef` settings management for the `base-check`/`set-baseref` subcommands (#683) |
| `health-diagnostic-rules/worktree-health.cjs` | Health-diagnostic rules: worktree health checks (W020, W017, W027 — the split-off stale-worktree subject), ported behavior-preserving from `cmdValidateHealth` (ADR-3180 §8.2/§8.3/§8.5, Phase 11, #3309) |
| `worktree-safety.cjs` | Worktree-root resolution and non-destructive prune policy decisions; owns W017 health-check logic |
| `vendor/js-yaml.cjs` | **Vendored third-party artifact, not a GSD module.** Verbatim copy of `js-yaml`'s UMD `dist` build (ADR-3473 §8.1, #3881) — the single YAML parser adopted to replace this repo's hand-rolled frontmatter scanner. Vendored because `gsd-core/bin/**` is copied into installed trees that have no `node_modules`, so it may contain no external requires (enforced by `local/no-external-require-in-bin`). Its type twin, `src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts`, is hand-authored (js-yaml ships no `.d.ts` upstream and `@types/js-yaml` is not installed) and deliberately narrow — only `load`/`dump`/`FAILSAFE_SCHEMA`/`YAMLException` are declared, so anchors/aliases/custom types/`loadAll` are unreachable from typed code. Never hand-edit the `.cjs`; `scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs` byte-compares it against the pinned `js-yaml` devDependency in `lint:ci` (the hand-authored twin is excluded from that byte-compare — there is no upstream file to compare against). See `gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/README.md` |
| `vendor/re2js.cjs` | **Vendored third-party artifact, not a GSD module.** Verbatim copy of `re2js`' CJS build — the RE2 linear-time regex engine used by `pattern.cjs` to evaluate untrusted `key_links` patterns without catastrophic backtracking (#3477). Vendored because `gsd-core/bin/**` is copied into installed trees that have no `node_modules`, so it may contain no external requires (enforced by `local/no-external-require-in-bin`). Never hand-edit; `scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs` byte-compares it against the pinned `re2js` devDependency in `lint:ci`. See `gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/README.md` |
| `write-set.cjs` | Shared fail-loud `Result<T>` (`{ok:true,value}\|{ok:false,reason}`) and per-surface write-set contracts (ADR-2143, epic #2143) — `WriteOutcome` (`{surface,applied}`), `WriteSet` (`WriteOutcome[]`), and `writeSetComplete(ws)` (true only when the set is non-empty AND every surface applied, never an OR-into-one-flag); `markdown-table.cjs` re-exports `Result` from here so existing importers are unaffected; consumed by `milestone.cts`'s `requirements mark-complete` handler to report a structured per-surface (`checkbox`/`traceability`) write-set alongside its existing fields (fixes the structural half of #2140) |
[`docs/CLI-TOOLS.md`](CLI-TOOLS.md) may describe a subset of these modules; when it disagrees with the filesystem, this table and the directory listing are authoritative.

| `gsd-cursor-subagent-start.js` | Cursor `subagentStart` | Cursor-native subagent context injection (ADR-1239 / #2089); hard-blocks an executor subagent whose session is not actually isolated when the project resolves to `harness-worktree` (#3045) |
| `gsd-cursor-subagent-stop.js` | Cursor `subagentStop` | Cursor-native subagent completion reminder (ADR-1239 / #2089) |
| `gsd-windsurf-pre-write.js` | Windsurf/Cascade `pre_write_code` | Blocking (exit-code-2) write-path guard — blocks a write resolving to a different git root than cwd, or inside `.git/` internals (ADR-1239 / #2100) |
| `gsd-windsurf-pre-command.js` | Windsurf/Cascade `pre_run_command` | Blocking (exit-code-2) destructive-command guard — conservative deny-list (`rm -rf` root/home wipes, force-push to a protected branch) (ADR-1239 / #2100) |
| `gsd-prompt-guard.js` | `PreToolUse` | Scans `.planning/` writes for prompt-injection patterns (advisory) |

| `gsd-write-guard.js` | `PreToolUse` | Hard-blocks a whole-file `Write` that catastrophically shrinks a curated `.planning/` artifact (ROADMAP.md, milestone roadmaps, STATE.md); override via the single-use sentinel `.planning/.gsd-allow-shrink` (workflow steps) or `GSD_ALLOW_PLANNING_SHRINK=1` (interactive) (#2255, fix 3 of #973) |
| `gsd-secret-read-guard.js` | `PreToolUse` | Hard-blocks Read / Grep / Bash reads of `.env`, `.env.<suffix>` (templates such as `.env.example` exempt) and `.secrets`; replaces the installer-written `Read(.env*)` permission deny rules, which made every `cd DIR && grep …` compound prompt for approval on Claude Code ≥ 2.1.259 (#4221) |
| `gsd-config-reload.js` | `FileChanged` | Hot-reloads GSD config context when `.planning/config.json` changes mid-session (#770) |
| `gsd-ensure-canonical-path.js` | `SessionStart` | Symlinks `~/.claude/gsd-core/{bin,contexts,references,templates,workflows}` to the plugin's bundled tree so `@~/.claude/gsd-core/...` includes resolve in marketplace plugin installs; no-op in classic installs, self-heals after `claude plugin update` (#997) |
| `gsd-session-state.sh` | `SessionStart` | Session-state tracking for shell-based runtimes |
| `gsd-validate-commit.sh` | `PreToolUse` | Commit validation for conventional-commit enforcement |
| `gsd-phase-boundary.sh` | `PostToolUse` | Phase-boundary detection for workflow transitions |
| `gsd-graphify-update.sh` | `PostToolUse` | Auto-rebuild knowledge graph after main HEAD advances (opt-in, default off — #3347) |
| `gsd-node-runner.sh` | (helper) | Portable node resolver managed JS hook commands route through under `--portable-hooks`: install-time node path first, then `command -v node`, then well-known layouts — resolves at hook-fire time so a shared config root works in every environment (#3662) |
### Hook Library (`hooks/lib/`)
Shared modules a hook `require()`s relative to its own `__dirname`; not separately invoked and not part of the auto-checked `hooks` manifest family (`scripts/gen-inventory-manifest.cjs` walks `hooks/` non-recursively). New entries below are #3911's; the directory holds other pre-existing helpers (`cursor-workspace.js`, `git-cmd.js`, `injection-patterns.js`, `isolation-deny-reason.js`, `isolation-sentinel.js`, `gsd-graphify-rebuild.sh`) not enumerated here.
| Module | Purpose |
|--------|---------|
| `hook-exit.js` | Hand-written hook-facing exit vocabulary layered over `cli-exit.js`'s `terminateNow`: `allow(payload)` (exit 0), `deny(payload, stderrPayload?)` (exit 2), `crash(onCrash, payload)` dispatching per a REQUIRED `HOOK_ON_CRASH` policy — no default, so a hook cannot fail open by omission (ADR-3889 Phase 7, #3911) |
| `cli-exit.js` | Generated, git-tracked copy of `src/cli-exit.cts`'s `ExitError`/`runMain`/`terminateNow` seam, so a shipped hook can terminate without depending on `gsd-core/bin/lib/` tsc output. Regenerated by `scripts/gen-hooks-cli-exit.cjs --write`; byte-compared by `npm run lint:generated-sync` (#3911) |
| `exit-code-registry.js` | Generated, git-tracked copy of the exit-code registry (`gsd-core/bin/shared/exit-codes.json`) — `exitCodeFor`/`nameForExitCode`, pure and total over the closed table. Regenerated by `scripts/gen-exit-code-registry.cjs --write`; byte-compared by `npm run lint:generated-sync` (#3905/#3906/#3911, ADR-3889) |

## Maintenance
- When a new command, agent, workflow, reference, CLI module, or hook ships, update the corresponding section here before the release is cut.
- The drift-guard tests under `tests/` (see "How To Use This File" above) assert that every shipped file in the six flat families — agents, commands, workflows, references, CLI modules, hooks — is enumerated in this inventory. A new file in one of those without a matching row here will fail CI. Workflow `steps/` and `modes/` sub-files are the deliberate exception; see "Workflow Sub-Files" above.
- When the filesystem diverges from `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` counts or from curated-subset docs (e.g. `docs/AGENTS.md`'s primary roster), this file is the source of truth.
