* feat(#3840): generate docs/FEATURES.md from per-feature fragments docs/FEATURES.md was hand-maintained, and every feature PR wrote into two shared mutable cells: the '### N.' heading whose integer was hand-allocated at authoring time, and the hand-maintained table of contents. Concurrent PRs all picked the same next integer, and two PRs adding differently numbered features still collided on the TOC. #3831 was renumbered 165 -> 166 -> 167 -> 168 across successive rebases, each collision also costing a full matrix verification run because the sha-keyed pass marker dies with the rebase. Mechanism: one fragment per feature at docs/features/<slug>.md carrying id/title/group (and an optional order) in frontmatter, consolidated by scripts/gen-features.cjs --write|--check into a marker-delimited region of docs/FEATURES.md that holds BOTH the TOC and every section body. Group headings and their order are derived too - a group sorts by its lowest-ordered member - so there is no shared registry to edit either; optional per-group prose lives in docs/features/_groups/<slug>.md. A contributor adds exactly one new file. Wired into regen:derived and lint:generated-sync alongside the eight existing generators, matching gen-adr-index.cjs's CLI shape and typed-REASON reporting. Migration froze all 168 existing numbers verbatim: identical section set, identical order, identical bodies. Two defects found in the tree are fixed inline rather than carried forward - the '## Related' block had been spliced into the middle of the document, orphaning §142's Reference line, and four inbound anchors were already broken on next (FEATURES.md#runtime-identity in two files, and #143-spec-phase-edge-completeness-probe off by one). Since the repo has no link checker, --check now validates every inbound FEATURES.md#anchor by resolved target, so that class cannot ship silently again; locale FEATURES.md files resolve elsewhere and stay out of scope. Refs #3840 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3840): carry upstream §69 delta into its fragment and harden the generator Review found section 69 missing '[--strict]' and REQ-STATE-05/06 versus origin/next. Root cause was a stale base, not extraction loss: those lines landed in394bf384b(#3844) AFTER this branch forked at63abcface, and 'git diff63abcfaceorigin/next -- docs/FEATURES.md' is exactly that hunk. Merging origin/next auto-applied the hunk into the GENERATED region, which --check immediately reported as stale; the delta is now carried in docs/features/statemd-consistency-gates.md and regenerated from there. --write is now fail-closed. It previously rendered the region even with violations outstanding, warning only on stderr and exiting 0, so a '--write && git commit' chain could commit a FEATURES.md carrying two colliding sections. It now refuses and exits 1; --force is the explicit override and says so in the report. The test that pinned the old behavior now pins the refusal, plus the --force override and its scoping. Marker forgery is rejected at two layers. A fragment body containing '<!-- FEATURES:START' or '<!-- FEATURES:END' is a typed body_forges_region_marker violation (fragments and group notes alike), and spliceIntoFeatures anchors the end boundary with lastIndexOf instead of indexOf, so a marker that reaches the document by any other route can only make the generated region grow, never shrink. Matching is on marker PREFIXES, so a decorated variant comment cannot slip past. Symlinked corpus entries are refused with a typed dirent_not_regular_file rather than read. A fork PR could otherwise commit docs/features/evil.md as a symlink to any readable path and have the generator inline those bytes into the committed docs/FEATURES.md on the next regen. Equivalence re-verified with a method that cannot cancel out. The first check extracted both operands with the same body-normalising helper, so anything that helper dropped was dropped on both sides. The replacement runs two independent passes: a global content-line multiset diff with no per-section logic at all (0 gained, 19 lost, all 19 the stale hand-written mini-TOC links this change deliberately deletes), and a per-section byte-exact body diff carrying a coverage assertion that fails loudly per file when the extractor accounts for fewer lines than the file contains. That assertion caught two blind spots in the checker itself. 168/168 sections present, order identical, one intended body difference (§142 regains the Reference line orphaned by the misplaced '## Related' block).

| 144 | Spec-Phase Edge-Completeness Probe | v1.42.1 Features |
Command: /gsd-spec-phase
Purpose: Surface the omitted domain-boundary edges that silently invalidate a requirement — touching intervals, empty inputs, rounding ties, grapheme truncation — before they become production defects. Runs as Step 5.5 of spec-phase, after the ambiguity gate.
Behavior: For each SPEC requirement the probe classifies its data/behavior shape, then raises only the applicable categories from a closed 8-category taxonomy (boundary, adjacency, empty, encoding, ordering, precision, idempotency, concurrency) via a relevance filter. Each raised category proposes one concrete candidate edge, which the author resolves to exactly one of four states:
| State | Meaning | Downstream effect |
|---|---|---|
covered |
An acceptance criterion handles the edge | Pass/fail line written into the SPEC Acceptance Criteria block; lifted into plan-phase must_haves.truths |
dismissed |
The edge cannot occur (requires a non-empty reason) | Recorded with its reason; empty dismissals are rejected |
backstop |
Intent recorded, needs a held-out/property-based test | Lifted into must_haves.truths as a non-inferable check |
unresolved |
Deferred | Soft-gates the spec; row stamped ⚠ Edge unresolved — planner must treat as assumption |
When a requirement's prose matches no shape cue, the probe does not silently drop it (#1110): it emits a single unclassified — review manually candidate so the zero-cue requirement is surfaced for the author to resolve like any other (specify / dismiss-with-reason / defer) — a manual-review nudge, not a hard block.
Non-English projects: the probe reads English, the SPEC does not have to (#2773). The shape cues are English word-boundary patterns, so a project running with response_language set would otherwise have every requirement match nothing, classify to zero shapes, and land in unclassified — the taxonomy silently contributing nothing to exactly the kind of spec it exists to harden. spec-phase Step 5.5 therefore feeds the probe a faithful English translation of each requirement's text: that payload is engine input, never user-facing output, so it is translated while the SPEC itself stays in the original language, requirement ids are left untouched, and any acceptance criteria written back from the resolved edges return to response_language. Translation makes the classifier applicable; it does not make it omniscient. A requirement carrying no shape cue in any language still classifies to zero — that is the classifier's recorded recall gap (ADR-857 §98), not a translation failure — and the remedy there is the same one an English project uses: author an explicit shapes array on the requirement instead of relying on prose classification.
The resolved edges populate a ## Edge Coverage section in SPEC.md. Unresolved applicable edges trigger a soft gate (Resolve / Write-anyway-flagged / Keep-probing) rather than a hard block. Under --auto, the probe never auto-dismisses — it auto-covers where a defensible criterion exists, otherwise auto-backstops, and logs [auto] edge coverage: C covered, B backstop, U unresolved. The one exception is an unclassified candidate: --auto leaves it unresolved (surfaced as a flagged assumption), never auto-backstop — a missing shape is not evidence an edge exists, so minting a held-out edge obligation would be a false claim.
The load-bearing wire is the plan-phase lift: covered and backstop edges become must_haves.truths the verifier can check, so the section is not merely documentation. A backstop edge is lifted as a structured non-inferable marker ({ statement, verification: backstop }, a flat scalar — not a prose note), which the honest verifier then consumes (see below) — closing the loop the edge-probe opened.
Honest verifier — abstention on non-inferable checks (#1154). A non-inferable (backstop) truth is one whose correct behavior is not derivable from the spec alone, so the verifier cannot self-detect the gap and would confidently false-pass it (~100% of the time). At verify time, a backstop truth the verifier cannot confirm with explicit evidence (a passing wired held-out/property-based test, or a directly-observed behavior) abstains → human_needed with reason insufficient_spec (reported as unverified — held-out test recommended), never a silent passed. This is the verify-time, truth-axis mirror of the prohibition judgment-tier disposition (ADR-550 D4): exogenous (driven by the backstop tag, never a self-judged "abstain if unsure"), routing-not-diagnosis (the held-out test carries the omitted rule), and capable-tier dependent (reliable on sonnet+; the budget haiku tier degrades toward current behavior). An inferable truth is never abstained (the over-abstention guard). Reference: Honest Verifier.
Requirements:
- REQ-EDGE-01: The edge pass MUST run after the ambiguity gate and emit a
## Edge CoverageSPEC section. - REQ-EDGE-02: The relevance filter MUST raise only applicable categories; each raised edge resolves to exactly one of covered/dismissed/backstop/unresolved.
- REQ-EDGE-03: A
dismissedresolution MUST require a non-empty reason. - REQ-EDGE-04: An unresolved applicable edge MUST trigger the soft gate; write-anyway stamps the row as a planner assumption.
- REQ-EDGE-05:
--autoMUST never auto-dismiss — auto-cover or auto-backstop only. - REQ-EDGE-06:
plan-phaseMUST liftcoveredcriteria andbackstopnotes intomust_haves.truths. - REQ-EDGE-07: A requirement whose prose matches no shape cue MUST surface an
unclassified — review manuallycandidate (never silently dropped);--autoMUST leave itunresolved, never auto-backstop. - REQ-EDGE-08:
plan-phaseMUST lift abackstopedge intomust_haves.truthsas a structured flat-scalar marker ({ statement, verification: backstop }), never a prose parenthetical. - REQ-HONEST-01: At verify time a
backstoptruth that cannot be confirmed with explicit evidence MUST abstain →human_needed(reasoninsufficient_spec), neverpassed; an inferable truth MUST never be abstained (over-abstention guard); abstention MUST be exogenous (driven by thebackstoptag, not self-judgment).
