Tom Boucher 6b7df61938 enhance(#3881): one YAML parser — vendored js-yaml replaces the hand-rolled dialect (#3888)
* docs(#3881): answer §8.1's open question and correct three wrong premises

ADR-3473 §8.1 carries a blocking open question with a forcing function: it must
be answered before any implementation PR for the rule opens. Answered here as (a),
a string-coercing adapter, with the measurement that settles it.

The sequencing note bet that §8.8's schema would make (b) tractable. Measured
against merged reality it does not: only 33 of extractFrontmatter's 78 non-test
call sites read STATE.md, and two of the five compensating mechanisms §8.1 lists
survive real types, leaving ~31 lines across 3 call sites as the actual prize.

Also corrects three claims verified false while answering it. §8.1's justifying
sentence names #3349 and #3360 as defects a real parser would fix; both are
already fixed on next, confirmed by executing the compiled parser rather than
reading it. The guard roster calls lint-frontmatter-scalar-broad-grep.cjs an
expected casualty of this rule, but it guards shell grep idioms in workflow bash
fences and never touches our parser. The same roster calls lint-vendored-deps.cjs
reusable as-is; it is hardcoded to re2js throughout.

The last two were caught by applying the rule this amendment records -- a factual
claim in this ADR is a hypothesis until the implementing phase executes it -- on
its first use.

* docs(#3881): record that §8.1's fork is ill-posed and (a) is not implementable

An adversarial pass on the Phase 4 design established by execution that
extractFrontmatter is not a YAML parser but a line-oriented scanner whose output
is a function of raw source text. Four spellings of the same value collapse to
one js-yaml tree but produce four distinct legacy strings, one of them mangled.
No adapter over a tree can choose among outputs the tree does not distinguish,
so fork (a) -- keep a string-coercing adapter so the existing contract holds --
cannot be built. For any document with a non-scalar value, (a) collapses into
(b); about 26 percent of frontmatter-carrying documents have one.

Also records three design defects and one new attack surface, all confirmed by
execution: catching a parse failure and returning {} would delete the frontmatter
block on the next write at eight call sites that conflate empty with unparseable;
an empty value yields null where legacy yields {}, and reconstructFrontmatter
omits null-valued keys, so the shipped state template's empty progress key would
vanish; the #1882 truncation probe is parseYamlRegion itself rather than a
pre-parse heuristic, so it cannot both stay unchanged and survive that deletion;
and FAILSAFE_SCHEMA still resolves aliases, expanding seven lines to 22.8 MB.

The rule is not deferred. The measurement is the deliverable and the re-scoping
is recorded as an open question with a forcing function, per section 8's own rule.

* test(#3881): failing-first rows for block scalars, unicode keys and the missing #3594 matrix

Creates tests/feat-3594-parser-adversarial-frontmatter.test.cjs, the file the fixture README instructs contributors to register fixtures in but which never existed.

Section C: table-driven ownership check over tests/fixtures/adversarial/frontmatter/ so a fixture with no matrix entry fails loudly; six existing fixtures (duplicate-keys, crlf-mixed, unclosed-block, unicode-keys-and-values, null-byte-value, huge-bounded) each get the invariant its README states.

B1 blockScalarValueIsNotTheBlockIndicator: parsing commands/gsd/add-tests.md must give argument-instructions the instruction text, not the literal '|'. RED today.

B2 blockScalarDoesNotInventATopLevelKey: same parse must not produce a top-level Example key scraped from inside the block body. RED today.

B3 unicodeKeyRoundTripsAsIs: the 相 key in unicode-keys-and-values.md must survive parsing; today it is silently dropped. RED today.

* chore(#3881): vendor js-yaml and generalize the vendored-deps guard to a manifest

Packaging step for ADR-3473 §8.1: makes js-yaml available to gsd-core/bin/** without promoting it out of devDependencies (promoting broke every installed tree, #3496).

gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/js-yaml.cjs is a verbatim copy of node_modules/js-yaml/dist/js-yaml.js (the self-contained UMD dist bundle, not index.js), exposing load/dump/FAILSAFE_SCHEMA/YAMLException with zero require() calls of its own.

src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts is hand-authored, not copied, because js-yaml ships no upstream .d.ts and @types/js-yaml is not installed. It is deliberately narrow, declaring only the four symbols in use, so anchors/aliases/custom types/loadAll are unreachable from typed code -- a compile-time enforcement of ADR-3473 §8.1's refusal to expand alias resolution for security reasons. Because it has no upstream counterpart it is excluded from the byte-compare.

scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs is refactored from a script hardcoded to re2js into a table-driven VENDORED manifest (one row per package: upstream/vendored .cjs paths, optional .d.cts paths, twin kind upstream-verbatim vs hand-authored) so a second vendored package does not require a second hardcoded check block, per ADR-3473 §8.3 'one implementation per rule'. The four existing re2js checks (vendored .cjs vs node_modules, vendored .d.cts vs node_modules, src/vendor twin vs bin-side twin, devDependency version pin vs installed version) are preserved unchanged; verified pass/fail identical before and after the refactor, and the guard's ability to fail was re-proven with a deliberate one-byte append to both re2js.cjs and js-yaml.cjs, then restored.

docs/INVENTORY.md and docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json (via gen-inventory-manifest.cjs --write, run after build:lib) register vendor/js-yaml.cjs. gsd-core/bin/lib/vendor/README.md documents both vendored packages and the two twin kinds.

* feat(#3881): parse .planning frontmatter with the vendored js-yaml

ADR-3473 §8.1: extractFrontmatter's read path is no longer a hand-rolled
line scanner. parseYamlRegion, escapeDoubleQuoted, unescapeDoubleQuoted and
parseQuotedScalar are deleted (not patched); parsing now goes through the
vendored js-yaml (./vendor/js-yaml.cjs) under { schema: FAILSAFE_SCHEMA,
json: true }. Everything js-yaml does not do is layered on top, in one
place, carrying the seven design-doc consequences:

1. Empty value: a null js-yaml value is coerced to {} (matching legacy's
   own empty-value contract) so reconstructFrontmatter — which omits
   null-valued keys — still round-trips a bare `key:` line instead of
   deleting it. Verified live: progress: with no value survives
   parse -> reconstruct -> re-parse.

2. Unparseable no longer collapses to a bare {}: a new FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE
   Symbol (exported), keyed exactly like the existing #3257 FULL_LINE_COMMENTS
   channel, is carried on the {} returned for malformed/refused YAML. Invisible
   to Object.keys/entries/JSON.stringify/for-in, so the 70 call sites that
   never inspect it are unaffected; wiring the 8 hasFrontmatter sites to
   consult it is a separate change, not done here.

3. Non-scalar object-list items (the four spellings of `- test: a b` that
   js-yaml collapses into one tree shape) are rendered as a canonical
   `key: value[, key2: value2]` string per item, keeping the existing
   array-of-strings value SHAPE. A full corpus differential over all 1702
   tracked markdown files found 11 residual divergences from the legacy
   parser (enumerated in the PR/report), most of them the parser now being
   MORE correct (a dropped quoted top-level key, the block-scalar/phantom-key
   defect, a dropped Unicode key).

4. The #1882 truncation probe still runs the one real parser, but derives
   its key count from js-yaml's own thrown error and mark.line when the
   whole region doesn't parse cleanly (the dominant real truncation shape:
   fence opened, well-formed keys, no closing fence). Verified against both
   the clean-parse and the exception-fallback path.

5. The #3257 comment channel now attributes each pending column-0 comment
   against js-yaml's own parsed top-level key list (matched by literal key
   text, in document order) instead of the legacy ASCII-only key regex, so
   a comment above a Unicode key attaches correctly.

6. Anchors, aliases and merge keys are refused outright (a raw-text
   pre-scan, since FAILSAFE_SCHEMA still resolves them) — corpus occurrences
   today: zero. A 7-line billion-laughs fixture is verified refused rather
   than expanded.

7. A literal U+0000 is swapped for a private-use sentinel before the parse
   and restored in every resulting string afterward, since js-yaml rejects
   NUL unconditionally under every schema.

escapeDoubleQuoted is deleted and reimplemented via js-yaml's dump()
(forced double-quoted style), with control-char hex escapes lowercased to
keep serialized output byte-stable (#1779 emitted lowercase); it keeps its
exported name and signature for its two other call sites (commands.cts,
runtime-artifact-conversion.cts), which need no change.

frontmatterDeepEqual, the comment channel, sliceTopLevelFrontmatterSegments,
regenerateFrontmatterKey's guard, noOpObjectListSetError and
parseMustHavesBlock are all unchanged — retiring them is fork (b) and is
not this phase.

* fix(#3881): quote template placeholders and preserve unparseable frontmatter

SECURITY.md/UI-SPEC.md/VALIDATION.md wrote frontmatter placeholders as
bare {N}/{phase-slug}/{date}, which is valid YAML flow-mapping syntax
under the vendored js-yaml parser, not the literal placeholder text
intended. Quote them so they parse as strings.

Wire the FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE Symbol (exported but unused) at the
8 call sites in state.cts/state-transition.cts that compute
hasFrontmatter via Object.keys(extractFrontmatter(...)).length > 0 and
reassemble the document without a frontmatter block when false. That
check conflated 'no frontmatter' with 'unparseable frontmatter' (both
parse to {}), so a document with a merge-conflict marker or refused
alias in its frontmatter had that block silently dropped on write.
Each site now preserves the exact raw bytes stripFrontmatter removed
when the marker is set, leaving the genuinely-empty case unchanged.

* test(#3881): consequence and boundary coverage for the js-yaml migration

Rows: A1 emptyValuedKeySurvivesAWrite, A2 unparseableDocumentKeepsItsFrontmatterBlock, A3 unparseableIsDistinguishableFromEmpty, A4 nonScalarValuesCanonicalize, A5 truncationProbeStillFiresOnAnOpenFence, A6 commentsStayOnTheirOwnKey, A7 anchorsAndAliasesAreRefused, A8 aliasExpansionCannotExhaustMemory, F1 UNTERMINATED_KEY_THRESHOLD boundary, F2 alias/nesting refusal bound, F3 frontmatter size boundary (huge-bounded.md + larger). Adds tests/fixtures/adversarial/frontmatter/anchor-alias-bomb.md and its entry in the feat-3594 fixture matrix.

Refs #3881

* docs(#3881): correct the frontmatter glossary entry

Two errors in the entry as first written: it named parseYamlRegion as part of
the read path when that function is deleted, and it recorded the eight
hasFrontmatter call sites as unwired follow-on work when they were wired in
e35ac2a2c. Also records the scope caveat that the CLI write path rebuilds the
frontmatter block independently, so the marker binds at the transform layer.

Refs #3881

* docs(#3881): record the semantic-migration decision and the counted guard ledger

The maintainer chose the full semantic migration over splitting the rule into
its own epic or patching the scanner, so section 8.1 is answered as "the fork
was ill-posed and the migration is semantic" rather than as (a) or (b).

Also replaces the pre-implementation guess that this phase would shrink the
guard surface with the counted result: excluding vendored third-party lines the
hand-maintained surface is net +307, and frontmatter.cts grew by 68 lines
despite four functions being deleted, because the compatibility layer over
js-yaml is larger than the scanner it replaced. Section 8.1's stated benefit is
therefore not delivered as written; what improved is the kind of code
maintained, not the amount. Decision 6 requires recording that rather than
netting it away.

* fix(#3881): refuse anchors structurally and fold in review findings

ADR-3473 §8.1 review findings, addressed inline:

Finding 1 (BLOCKER): refuseAnchorsAndAliases was a raw-line regex that matched
only the bare-key spelling (key: &x). A quoted key ("a": &x), a flow mapping
({b: &x}) and a flow sequence ([&x, *x]) all define/use the SAME anchor
mechanics while never matching that line shape, so the exact expansion the
guard exists to stop went straight through unrefused (a 303-byte quoted-key
bomb expanded to ~35.8MB). Replaced with js-yaml's own `load` `listener`
callback, which reports `state.anchor` for every event belonging to an
anchored node in every spelling, and throws from inside the callback to abort
before any expansion (~1-2ms vs full expand-then-discard). A merge key with
an alias is still refused (merge always requires a previously anchored node,
so the alias itself trips the listener); a bare merge key with NO alias is no
longer separately refused, documented as intentional: FAILSAFE_SCHEMA never
resolves `!!merge`, so it carries no expansion risk. Table-driven tests added
for all four bypass spellings + merge key, plus a quoted-key-spelled
billion-laughs fixture registered in the adversarial matrix and README.

Finding 2: src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts's docblock falsely claimed anchors/
aliases were "simply UNREACHABLE from typed code" through the twin. Corrected
to state the truth: anchor/alias resolution is document-level `load`
mechanics reachable through exactly the declared surface, and refusal is
enforced at RUNTIME (Finding 1's listener), not by the type surface.

Finding 3 (MAJOR): the null-byte sentinel (U+E000) round-trip was
non-injective — restoreNullBytesDeep rewrote every U+E000 in the parsed tree
back to NUL, including one the document author legitimately wrote, silently
corrupting it. Now refuses outright whenever the raw region already contains
U+E000 (consistent with the existing anchor/merge-key refusal path), making
the substitution provably injective. Tests added for a real NUL alone
(preserved), a pre-existing U+E000 alone (refused, not corrupted), and both
together (refused, not merged into one byte).

Finding 4 (MAJOR): scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs's `srcTwin` field was dead
for a hand-authored row (only read inside the upstream-verbatim branch) —
exactly how Finding 2's stale docblock drifted unnoticed. Added
checkHandAuthoredTwin: every value-level export the twin DECLARES must be an
actual own property of the vendored runtime module at require-time. Tests
added, including a sensor that a declared-but-nonexistent export IS caught.

Finding 5: the existingFm/hasFrontmatter/stripFrontmatter/fmPrefix/
unparseableFm/reassemble preamble, copy-pasted at 7 sites in
state-transition.cts plus a sixth hand-inlined copy in state.cts's
cmdStateCompletePhase, is now one exported helper
(beginFrontmatterReassembly) every site routes through, including the
hand-inlined one. Three call sites (beginPhaseCore, patchCore, updateCore)
keep a literal `body = stripFrontmatter(content)` assignment alongside the
helper call so scripts/lint-state-write-path-drift.cjs's single-hop backward
scan (which does not chase aliases) still sees the strip; stripFrontmatter is
pure/idempotent so the extra call changes nothing observable.

Finding 6: corrected the frontmatter.cts docblock's stale "wiring is a
separate change" claim (the 8 call sites are wired on this branch) and the
changeset's backlink from (#3473) to (#3881).

Finding 7: fixed the lint:ci failures blocking the gate — an
@typescript-eslint/only-throw-error violation from throwing a bare Symbol as
the anchor-detected signal (now a real Error subclass), unused-var warnings
left over from the Finding 5 refactor, a lint-test-file-count cap exceeded by
two migration-specific test files (allowlisted with justification), and the
lint-state-write-path-drift false positive from Finding 5's helper (fixed
above). tests/frontmatter-golden-parity.test.cjs:117's execFileSync already
carried an explicit timeout; no change was needed there.

Golden fixture: added a golden entry for the new
anchor-alias-bomb-quoted.md fixture ({} — matches what the legacy line
scanner would also produce, since it independently dropped every quoted
top-level key). No other corpus document diverges: real .planning/ documents
carry zero anchors/aliases/merge keys/U+E000 today.

Refs #3881

* fix(#3881): fold in second-round review findings

Finding 1 (BLOCKER): tests/frontmatter.test.cjs pinned the pre-migration
ASCII-only key regex for the Unicode fixture; updated to require the 相
key's value now that js-yaml has no such restriction. Audited the rest of
the file for other pre-migration pins (block scalars, quoted keys,
flattened values, empty values, duplicate keys, unclosed blocks, null
bytes) by execution against real fixtures; found none regressed.

Finding 2: parseYamlRegion and escapeDoubleQuoted renamed to
parseGuardedYamlRegion and escapeDoubleQuotedScalar in src/frontmatter.cts
so no function still answers to the deleted hand-rolled scanner's name
(ADR-3473 §8.1 "deleted, not patched"). escapeDoubleQuotedScalar's three
external call sites (src/commands.cts, src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts)
updated in the same change — a mechanical rename, not an ADR-amendment
matter.

Finding 3 (BLOCKER): fixed a real crash and a silent data-loss bug found
by execution. A top-level key named constructor/__proto__/toString/
valueOf/hasOwnProperty crashed reconstructFrontmatter (bracket read
resolving an inherited Object.prototype member); a key literally named
__proto__ was silently DROPPED entirely (bracket assignment on an
ordinary {} invoked the inherited __proto__ setter instead of creating a
data property). Fixed by building every parsed Frontmatter object with
Object.create(null), and replacing an `in` check with hasOwnProperty.call
in propagateCommentChannel. Added round-trip tests for all five hostile
keys, each with its own leading comment.

Finding 4 (MAJOR): escapeDoubleQuotedScalar's docstring falsely claimed
full byte-stability across the migration. Verified by execution: BEL/NUL/
NEL/NBSP/LS/PS/BOM now emit YAML-named escapes instead of the old hex/raw-
literal forms. Proved round-trip equivalence (each escape re-parses to the
exact source codepoint) and corrected the docstring. Found and fixed a
related real defect while verifying: a lone UTF-16 surrogate was emitted
BARE (scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting didn't trigger), producing genuinely
unparseable YAML that silently collapsed to {} on re-read — extended
scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting to route surrogates through the quoted+escaped
path.

Finding 5 (MAJOR): countKeysBeforeTruncation went silent on 4 real
truncation shapes (unquoted colon, open flow collection, mis-indented
sibling key, refused anchor). Root cause: the mark-based prefix recovery
excluded the very line whose key needed counting, and a mark-less refusal
never entered the recovery branch at all. Fixed by taking the max of two
lower bounds: the longest parser-verified line-prefix, and a raw-text
count of key-shaped lines (reusing the same key-shape pattern this file
already uses for isFrontmatterShaped). Extended test-matrix row A5
table-driven over all 4 regressed shapes.

Finding 6: the design doc's claim that no test owned the #3594 adversarial
fixture corpus was false — consolidation epic #1969 had already folded it
into tests/frontmatter.test.cjs. An earlier commit on this branch
re-created a standalone duplicate under that false premise; folded its
genuinely-new coverage (fixture-ownership check, anchor-bomb fixtures,
block-scalar B1/B2 rows) into frontmatter.test.cjs and deleted the
duplicate file. Corrected the false claims in 40-design.md §3.3.1 and the
ADR's §8.1 note, including the roadmap-sibling claim (no such file exists).

Finding 7: the golden serializer sorted object keys, making it structurally
blind to the key-order-parity invariant ADR-3473 §8.1 actually claims.
Made it order-preserving and regenerated the golden fixture from a
standalone compile of the legacy (pre-#3881) parser at ddde001af; the
current parser matches it with zero undocumented divergences, confirming
key-order parity genuinely holds. Extended row A2 table-driven across 6 of
the remaining 7 transitionCore kinds (all pass) plus documented, by
execution, a newly-discovered 8th-site regression: state.cts's
cmdStateCompletePhase calls the same preservation helper but its result is
clobbered by a later unconditional resync — filed as a distinct finding
rather than fixed here (touches syncAndPreserveStateMd, outside this
change's verified scope).

Refs #3881

* fix(#3881): preserve unparseable frontmatter through the CLI write path

Characterization (executed, before/after shown): case (b), not (a). The
frontmatter FENCE survives — `state complete-phase` on a conflict-marked
STATE.md returns success and a well-formed, freshly-derived frontmatter
block, not a document with no frontmatter at all. But the block's actual
content (the merge-conflict markers, and with them any signal to a human
that the document was in conflict) is silently discarded and replaced.

Root cause was two clobber sites, not one:

1. syncStateFrontmatter (src/state.cts) re-parses the already-preserved
   `transformedContent` from readModifyWriteStateMd, finds {} + the
   FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE marker, and unconditionally rebuilt a fresh
   frontmatter block from the body anyway.
2. Even after (1) is fixed, applyPostSyncPreservation's own
   postFm/applyStatePreservation/authoritativeFm-reassertion machinery
   re-extracts frontmatter from syncedContent, restores curated fields
   from the pre-write snapshot, and reconstructs a NEW block again —
   confirmed live via `state begin-phase`, which still lost the markers
   after fixing (1) alone.

Both are now guarded by the same predicate (isUnparseableFrontmatter,
checking FRONTMATTER_UNPARSEABLE): when the ORIGINAL frontmatter did not
parse and the caller is not on ADR-3408 §8.3's closed "body wins" list,
both functions return their input content unchanged rather than
re-deriving over it. The closed list (cmdStateSync #905,
/gsd-health --repair's REGENERATE_STATE, both routed only through
writeStateMd, which never reaches applyPostSyncPreservation and passes
sanctionedPermanentEmptyFallback=true to syncStateFrontmatter) is
untouched — neither widened nor narrowed; verified by execution that
`state sync` still overwrites the conflict-marked block exactly as before.

Other verbs sharing the same readModifyWriteStateMd path were checked and
were equally affected before this fix: state update, query state.patch,
and state begin-phase all lost the conflict markers (RED, shown by
execution), and all three now preserve them (GREEN). Covered table-driven
in tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs's new A2b describe
block, which drives the real CLI verbs via runGsdTools — not just the pure
transitionCore layer the earlier A2 rows exercised — plus a control
asserting state sync's body-wins contract is unchanged.

Refs #3881

* fix(#3881): restore the parse surface's prototype and fix remote-runner failures

Root cause of the bulk of the 88 remote-runner failures: extractFrontmatter/parseGuardedYamlRegion handed back Object.create(null) trees for prototype-pollution safety, but assert.deepStrictEqual compares prototypes, so every assertion against a plain object literal failed (57 frontmatter.unit.test.cjs + 5 frontmatter.test.cjs + others). Fixed by keeping the internal construction null-prototype (unchanged) and converting to a plain-prototype tree via Object.defineProperty (never bracket assignment, so __proto__/constructor/toString keys stay safe) at the parseGuardedYamlRegion/unparseableResult return boundary only; the internal FULL_LINE_COMMENTS Symbol channel is copied by reference, not recursed, so its own __proto__-safety is untouched.

Per-class fixes: (1) bomAcrossArtifactTypes was the same prototype bug, no separate code change needed. (2) frontmatter-cli #1660: added objectListFieldWouldLoseData, a broader lossy-field detector alongside the existing byte-identical noOpObjectListSetError -- js-yaml's flattenObjectListItem now correctly includes every sub-key of an object-list item (a real bug fix over the legacy scanner, which silently dropped every field but the first), so a set that drops that now-included data is no longer byte-identical to the original and needs its own guard. (3) uat.test.cjs: updated the pinned expectation for the human_verification quote-stripping artifact -- js-yaml resolves quoting correctly where the legacy regex left an unbalanced quote; documented as an intentional, non-lossy behavior change. (4) smart-entry: added a fallback-only loadWithAmbiguousColonRepair so a column-0 key: value line whose value itself contains an unquoted colon (the #2571 hand-edited-STATE.md shape) round-trips instead of failing the whole frontmatter block closed. (5) frontmatter.unit.test.cjs bracket-array leniency: added a second fallback, repairMalformedInlineArrays, restoring the legacy scanner's tolerant inline-array handling (consecutive/blank commas, unclosed bracket) -- both repairs run ONLY after the primary parse already threw, so well-formed documents are unaffected. (6) prompt-injection-scan: src/frontmatter.cts had a literal U+FEFF BOM embedded in a comment illustrating the #2977 fix; replaced with the U+FEFF text escape. (7) eslint-glob-coverage: allowlisted the new src/vendor/js-yaml.d.cts vendored type declaration, same precedent as the existing re2js.d.cts entry. (8) frontmatter-golden-parity: git ls-files *.md now runs with -c safe.directory=* (process-scoped) so it survives the remote runner's dubious-ownership check without a persistent git config write.

* chore(#3881): backfill changeset PR number

Refs #3881

* test(#3881): make golden parity resistant to unrelated tree churn

A corpus-wide snapshot keyed to every tracked *.md file was coupled to mutable-by-design files: .changeset/*.md's pr:0 -> real-PR-number backfill is a required workflow step, not a parser change, yet it turned this suite red. Training people to 'just regenerate the golden' on that kind of failure defeats the point of the snapshot. Exclude .changeset/** from the golden corpus entirely, tolerate tracked *.md files with no golden entry (they postdate the capture) instead of failing on them, keep hard failures for a golden entry whose file has vanished from the tree and for any real parity divergence, and add a coverage floor so the enumeration cannot quietly degrade to comparing a handful of files. Golden regenerated by recompiling the legacy pre-migration parser (git show ddde001af:src/frontmatter.cts) standalone, independent of the current parser, over the same non-changeset corpus.

Refs #3881

* test(#3881): make the parser golden hermetic instead of tree-keyed

This repo merges ~21 commits/day; a 14-day sample measured 937 touches of the
exact files (commands/gsd/*.md, gsd-core/workflows/*.md, agents/*.md,
docs/*.md) the prior golden pinned by tracked path. Any PR editing one of
those files' frontmatter for reasons unrelated to the parser (an
argument-hint addition, an allowed-tools tweak) turned the suite red, and the
reflex fix -- "regenerate the golden" -- overwrote the very snapshot meant to
catch a real regression. Excluding .changeset/** was not enough; the design
itself was wrong: a regression fixture must not be keyed to mutable repo
paths, and a single 376-entry JSON every such PR touches is also a
guaranteed merge-conflict surface.

Rebuilt the fixture to carry its own documents: each of 51 entries stores a
stable id, literal documentText (shrunk from a real ddde001af-era corpus
document), and an expectedParse captured independently from the
pre-migration legacy parser (git show ddde001af:src/frontmatter.cts,
compiled standalone against its byte-identical sibling modules). The test
reads no tracked path, shells out to no git command, and enumerates no tree
-- a PR editing commands/gsd/help.md cannot affect it. Every entry's
reconstruction was verified at capture time to reproduce both the current
and legacy parser's output on the original document; 0 of 51 candidates
were dropped by that check (1, the deliberately-unterminated
unclosed-block.md adversarial fixture, has no closing fence to truncate at
and is stored unshrunk). Kept the 5 documented DIVERGENCES rows (now
diverges:true entries) and the D2 order-preserving structural serializer
that keeps the comparison from passing vacuously; dropped the
tree-enumeration helpers, the coverage floor, the post-capture-skip logic,
and the vanished-file check -- all artifacts of the path-keyed design.

* fix(#3881): resolve vendored-deps paths independently of cwd shape

Five rows in tests/lint-vendored-deps-manifest.test.cjs failed on
windows-latest CI: the test passed absolute scratch-file paths into
compareFiles()/checkRow(), whose helpers joined every input onto ROOT
via path.join(ROOT, rel), producing garbage when the input was already
absolute. It surfaced on windows-latest specifically because GitHub's
Windows runners checkout the repo on a different drive than TEMP, so
path.relative(REPO_ROOT, tmpFile) returned the absolute path unchanged
(no relative traversal is representable across drives) rather than the
relative form the test assumed. The remote gsd-test runner this repo
gates pushes on is Linux-only and could never have caught this;
GitHub CI's windows-latest job is the only signal that does, and it did.

Fixed the helper itself (scripts/lint-vendored-deps.cjs's new
resolvePath()) to treat an already-absolute input as absolute-in,
absolute-out instead of silently mis-joining it, and updated the test
to pass the scratch file's absolute path directly rather than relying
on a relative conversion that is not always representable. Kept every
mutation-sensor assertion intact and added coverage proving
resolvePath is a no-op for relative inputs and correctly passes
absolute ones through unchanged.

contract — that overwrite behavior is unchanged here. The defect was
the silence: synced:true/exit 0 gave no signal that the existing
block (including git merge-conflict markers) could not be parsed and
was destroyed, per ADR-3473 §8.5 ('a derived conclusion may not be
reported as authoritative when the derivation dropped input it could
not resolve') and §8.4 ('failure is a value').

Adds a gsd: warning — ... (#3881) line on stderr, matching the
existing #3573 precedent, and surfaces the same disclosure in the
JSON result's existing changes[] array so a machine consumer sees it
too. Exit code and synced:true are left unchanged — sync did what its
contract says.

REGENERATE_STATE (/gsd-health --repair's sibling on the same
sanctioned-regenerate list) is DESTRUCTIVE-risk and unconditionally
refused by applyRepairs's dispatcher before runRepairAction ever runs
(src/health-diagnostic.cts), so it is not a live path today and is not
in scope for this fix.

* revert(#3881): restore exit-0 result envelopes for state errors

Reverts 9638f2936 and its changeset. The change was wrong and the revert is
the correction.

This repo distinguishes two error mechanisms deliberately. error() in
src/io.cts writes to stderr and calls process.exit(1) -- the hard-failure
path. output({error: ...}) writes a JSON result envelope to stdout and returns
normally with exit 0. The reverted commit converted 23 result-envelope sites
into hard failures, which is a different contract, not a bug fix.

tests/state-contract.test.cjs's errorPathDoesNotPublish asserts the envelope
contract directly -- a failing command exits 0 with a JSON error envelope and
must not publish state.json -- and the remote matrix run caught it along with
four cases in the QA scenario walk. Thirteen tests in tests/state.test.cjs that
the original commit rewrote were encoding that real contract, not the bug it
claimed; they are restored.

Whether an error envelope on stdout with exit 0 is the right CLI design is a
genuine question, and it is section 8.4's rule ('failure is a value') with its
own phase. It is not something to flip inside this PR.

* test(#3881): keep the frontmatter mutation shard inside its time budget

The Stryker (frontmatter) shard hit the documented 15-minute (900s) shard
cap. Root cause is NOT row-level spawn overhead (contrast the #2790/
core-utils precedent): the three shard test files' own logic runs in
~413ms total (356+30+27ms) with all 392 assertions passing. Instead,
src/frontmatter.cts grew from ~825 to 1496 lines (+671/-187) migrating to
the vendored YAML parser, proportionally growing the mutant count Stryker
generates for gsd-core/bin/lib/frontmatter.cjs. Stryker's command runner
bills the full 'node --test <3 files>' invocation once per mutant, and
node:test's default per-file process isolation forks a child process for
each of the three files on every one of those invocations — pure fork
overhead multiplied by a much larger mutant population.

Fix: scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs COVERED.frontmatter now declares
isolation: 'none', and .github/workflows/mutation.yml passes
--test-isolation=${{ matrix.isolation }} (defaulting to 'process' — i.e.
unchanged behavior — for the other 8 shards, which were not individually
audited for cross-file state leakage under shared-process execution).
Measured locally via node:test's run() API on the exact 3-file set:
isolation:'process' took ~593ms vs isolation:'none' ~478ms for the same
392 passing assertions. The true CI-shard number can only be confirmed
on the GitHub Actions run (Stryker cannot run locally, and 'node --test'
is hard-blocked in this environment).

Refs #3881

* test(#3881): register the vendored-parser tests in the frontmatter mutation shard

stryker.config.mjs's own rule ("Keep this list in sync with the tests
arrays in scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs COVERED") was violated: #3881 grew
src/frontmatter.cts from ~825 to 1496 lines but its new tests
(tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs,
tests/frontmatter-golden-parity.test.cjs,
tests/frontmatter-roundtrip.property.test.cjs, and +167 lines in
tests/frontmatter.test.cjs) were never added to the frontmatter shard's
tests array, so Stryker's mutants in the new vendored-js-yaml adapter had
nothing constraining them. PR #3888 measured 55.8% against the 65 floor
(748 killed / 593 survived / 17 timeout) and the shard was separately
cancelled at 15m04s against the 15-minute per-shard cap.

Registers all four files (each earns its slot on evidence of a unique
constraining assertion, documented inline), gives the shard a
measured/projected 180-minute budget via a new per-module
timeoutMinutes field threaded through mutation.yml's job-level
timeout-minutes the same way isolation is threaded, and removes the
prior isolation:'none' override (re-measured at this file-set size, its
savings are within run-to-run noise, not worth the unaudited
cross-file-state-leakage risk).

* test(#3881): ratchet five stale mutation floors and close the frontmatter gap

Raised five module minScore floors per CI run 33012034388 (floor(achieved)-1):
config-schema 75.51%->74, prompt-budget 88.95%->87, context-composer 79.92%->78,
context-utilization 92.31%->91, active-workstream-store 87.42%->86. Updated both
scripts/mutation-matrix.cjs COVERED entries and tests/mutation-matrix-ratchet.test.cjs
RATCHET_BASELINE in the same diff per the ratchet's own contract.

Closed the frontmatter shard's 63.03%-vs-65 gap with new behavioral tests in
tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs, each paired with a documented
near-miss: frontmatterDeepEqual's array-order/length/type-mismatch/key-order
semantics (via spliceFrontmatter's no-op guard), scalarNeedsDoubleQuoting's
leading/trailing-whitespace and dash/surrogate triggers (via reconstructFrontmatter),
repairAmbiguousColonValues' already-quoted vs ambiguous-colon repair paths (via
extractFrontmatter), and the null-byte sentinel round-trip surviving at region
offset 1. Did not lower minScore.

Refs #3881

* test(#3881): decouple the ratchet test from real module floors

The CLI end-to-end rows in tests/mutation-score-ratchet.test.cjs hardcoded config-schema's real floor (52), which commit 973321541 legitimately ratcheted to 74 -- breaking a test pinned to the exact value the mechanism under test exists to change. Add an injectable --matrix seam to scripts/check-mutation-score-ratchet.cjs and point the CLI rows at a synthetic module + synthetic floor built via a temp fixture, so the rows are indifferent to any real module's floor moving while still exercising the same fail/pass behaviour.

* refactor(#3881): parse must_haves with the vendored parser and drop re-implemented leniency

* fix(#3881): restore the ambiguous-colon repair its hand-edited-STATE.md contract needs

A tracked-document sweep of 910 *.md files cannot see this dependent: repairAmbiguousColonValues's one real caller is user hand-edited STATE.md content that never lives in this repo's tree, only on end users' machines, and is pinned by tests/smart-entry.unit.test.cjs. Restores the function plus its post-throw fallback path (loadWithAmbiguousColonRepair) only; repairMalformedInlineArrays and splitLegacyInlineArrayItems stay deleted, reverified against the full frontmatter test shard. Adds a frontmatter-level regression row in tests/feat-3881-yaml-parser-consequences.test.cjs so the dependency is visible where the function lives.

Closes #2571

# 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*).

## 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 two kinds of sub-file. Both live under `gsd-core/workflows/<workflow>/` and
neither 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` |
Both 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 or mode 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.

### 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). |
| `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` | Worktree guard suite: HEAD assertion, 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. |

| `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. |
| `ai-frameworks.md` | AI framework decision-matrix reference for `gsd-framework-selector`. |
| `executor-examples.md` | Worked examples for the gsd-executor agent. |
| `doc-conflict-engine.md` | Shared conflict-detection contract for ingest/import workflows. |
| `execute-mvp-tdd.md` | Runtime gate semantics for execute-phase under MVP+TDD — 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. |

### 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-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-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.

| `installer-migrations/009-pi-retire-reserved-hooks-dir.cjs` | Installer migration: retires pi's legacy `hooks/` directory after GSD's shared hook bundle moved to `gsd-hooks/` (#3023) |
| `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 "$SCOPE" \| node .../api-coverage.cjs [--json]`, exit 0=detected/1=none/2=error); consumed by the `ai-integration` capability's `plan:pre` contribution and blocking `verify:pre` gate (`check api-coverage.verify-pre`) |
| `artifacts.cjs` | Canonical artifact registry — known `.planning/` root file names; used by `gsd-health` W019 lint |
| `assumption-delta.cjs` | Detects identity-model assumption transitions in phase text for discuss-phase assumptions mode (#1561) |
| `audit-command-router.cjs` | ADR-959 capability command router for `gsd-tools audit-uat` and `gsd-tools audit-open` — extracted from hardcoded cases in `gsd-tools.cjs`; dispatches to `uat.cjs:cmdAuditUat` and `audit.cjs:{auditOpenArtifacts,formatAuditReport}`; phase 4d-impl-3 |
| `audit.cjs` | Audit dispatch, audit open sessions, audit storage helpers |
| `capability-activation.cjs` | Capability activation resolver shared by config validation and capability-state consumers — resolves registry-owned config keys from raw runtime config without re-centralizing migrated settings |
| `capability-command-router.cjs` | ADR-2346 P2 host command router for `gsd-tools capability` — relocated verbatim from the former 706-line `case 'capability':` arm in `gsd-tools.cjs`; dispatched via `HOST_COMMAND_ROUTERS` in `runCommand`'s default case; wires `capability-lifecycle`/`-trust`/`-consent`/`-state`/`-writer`; hand-authored CJS (sibling of `ensure-runtime-build.cjs`) |
| `capability-consent.cjs` | User-owned capability consent store (#1459) — bounded, non-throwing JSON store at `${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` |
| `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` | Typed flag and positional argument projection helpers shared across command-family routers |
| `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) |
| `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 |
| `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: config override → origin/HEAD symref → `git remote show origin` → local branch presence → "main". Eliminates per-workflow duplicated bash detection (#1146) |
| `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) |
| `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) |
| `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` |
| `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` |
| `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) or 1 (no UI); 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.

## 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.
