Tom Boucher 36375513b9 feat(#3840): generate docs/FEATURES.md from per-feature fragments (#3845)
* 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.

* 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 in 394bf384b (#3844) AFTER this branch forked at 63abcface, and
'git diff 63abcface origin/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).

title: Capability Management Command
group: v1.43.0 Features
---
**Command:** `gsd capability install | update | remove | list | outdated | disable | enable`
**Purpose:** The user-facing CLI for the ADR-1244 capability ecosystem — install, upgrade, remove, list, check for updates, and toggle GSD capabilities (first-party and third-party overlays) from a registry / git / npm / tarball / local source. Wires the Phase-3/4 lifecycle library (source resolver, install ledger, trust gate) to a command users actually run.
**Behavior:**
- `install <spec> [--integrity sha512-…] [--scope global|project] [--yes] [--shared-file <rel>]…` — resolve (copy-only) → verify integrity / SHA pin → `engines.gsd` gate → disclose executable surfaces → consent (`--yes` grants; without it an executable install aborts after printing the disclosure and writes nothing) → validate → extract → record the ledger.
- `update [<id> | --all] [--scope] [--yes]` — re-resolve the capability's recorded source and upgrade via atomic stage-then-swap; re-consent when the executable set changed; `--all` reports a per-capability outcome and exits non-zero on any partial failure.
- `remove <id> [--purge-data] [--scope]` — strip the ledger-recorded files + marker-isolated shared edits; first-party capabilities are rejected (use the product uninstaller).
- `list [--json]` — first-party + installed overlay capabilities (both scopes) as a JSON array.
- `outdated [--json] [--scope]` — light remote peek of each installed overlay's recorded source (ADR-1244 D6 per-source matrix: git `ls-remote --tags`, npm `view … version` resolving the highest version matching the recorded range, local re-read; tarball → `manual`, registry → `unknown`) reporting `outdated` / `current` / `pinned` / `manual` / `unknown` per capability. A source pinned to an immutable ref (git `#sha:` or `#tag:`, or an exact npm version) is reported `pinned`. A bare git `#<ref>` is classified at the remote: if it resolves exclusively under `refs/tags/` it is an immutable tag → `pinned`; if it resolves to a mutable branch (or is ambiguous) it is `unknown`. Bounded subprocesses (git ≤30s, npm ≤60s) and a failing peek degrades that row to `unknown` without crashing the command. `--json` for machine output, default for a table.
- `disable | enable <id>` — toggle activation state (equivalent to `gsd capability set <id> --off` / `--on`).
**Trust boundary:** install never executes capability code (copy-only staging); executable surfaces require explicit consent; sources are gated by the **project-scoped** `capabilities.strict_known_registries` policy (fail-closed on a malformed/unparseable value); every shared-config write/delete is realpath-confined to the scope root, and a name collision with a user's `mcpServers` entry is never clobbered.
