Tom Boucher 7bb366e836 fix(#4130): --context flag for check decision-coverage-plan + parseDecisions quadratic-backtracking hardening (#4374)
* test(#4130): failing-first regressions for --context flag + parseDecisions hardening

Block A (flag): check decision-coverage-plan --context <path> must route
identically to the positional form; flag wins over positional context;
valueless --context falls through to the #2770 fail-closed caller error;
verify keeps its positional surface (flag is plan-only). RED on base:
the flag token lands in the args[2] phase slot (false uncovered) or the
args[3] context slot (silent CONTEXT.md-missing skip).

Block B (hardening): regex-lattice asserts pin the atomic-ID wrapper
(?=(X))\1 and the em-dash first-separator narrowing [^*—–]*[—–] plus the
no-adjacent-overlap property; a differential property compares the module
against a frozen copy of the pre-hardening grammars (reference validated
against the base build: 60k generated lines, 0 mismatches); 40k cliff
shapes assert correct outcomes with no wall-time asserts (repo rule).

A12: partitionPredicateArgs keeps one parser behind parsePredicateFlags.

* fix(#4130): --context flag for check decision-coverage-plan + quadratic-backtracking hardening in parseDecisions

(A) check decision-coverage-plan --context <path> — sibling convention
(check predicate, #2008): --flag value pairs parsed by the new shared
partitionPredicateArgs (parsePredicateFlags reimplemented as its flags
half — one parser, cannot diverge), the flag winning over a same-purpose
positional, positionals kept (no sibling deprecates them; the plan-phase
workflow caller passes positionals), valueless --context falls through
to the #2770 fail-closed caller error. Repair of the routing accident
where --context landed in the args[2] phase slot (false uncovered) or
the literal token in the args[3] context slot (silent green skip).

(B) parseDecisions regex seam hardened, byte-identical on all legal
inputs: the three bullet grammars consume the ID atomically via the
(?=(X))\1 lookahead emulation (kills the tail/[^:*]* O(n^2) re-split,
~1.1s @ 40k), and the em-dash first separator narrows [^*]*[—–] to
[^*—–]*[—–] (kills the dash-position O(n^2) retry, ~1.7s @ 40k). Group
indices unchanged (handlers untouched). Pinned by regex-lattice tests,
a differential fast-check property vs the frozen pre-hardening grammars,
and 40k cliff/legal-shape outcome tests (no wall-time asserts per repo
rule — no deterministic engine step counter exists in Node).

* docs+test(#4130): document --context invocation; harden lattice test tooling

- docs/CONFIGURATION.md Decision Coverage Gates: new 'Invoking the plan
  gate directly' block documenting both the positional and --context
  forms, flag precedence, and the valueless-flag fail-closed semantics
  (same place the gate's behavior is documented; sibling check predicate
  documents its flags the same way).
- Two changeset fragments per the maintainer brief (Added: flag; Fixed:
  hardening), PR numbers to be backfilled.
- tests/decisions.test.cjs review fixes: readRegExpTemplate template
  escaping (bare ')' SyntaxError), range-aware lattice checker with
  backreference skip and template unescape, honest A1 contract, lint
  escape warning.

* fix(#4130): valueless --context fails closed per #2770; A8 isolates flag-vs-positional context

Suite-caught fixes from the first verify run:
- cmdDecisionCoveragePlan now refuses a flag-shaped token as the
  positional context path: a bare valueless --context stays a positional
  (sibling parser semantics, unchanged) but reading it as a PATH would
  turn a caller mistake into a silent 'CONTEXT.md missing' green skip —
  exactly what #2770's fail-closed law forbids. Now falls through to
  the missing-context-argument error, as documented.
- A8 test compares decoy-positional+flag against flag-with-phase (phase
  held constant) so the row isolates WHICH context was read; the old
  form compared against a no-phase invocation that could never match.

* chore(#4130): backfill PR number in changeset fragments (PR #4374)

Changeset Fragments

This directory holds per-PR CHANGELOG fragments. Every PR with user-facing changes drops one (or more) <random-name>.md files here describing its CHANGELOG entry. Fragments are consolidated into the top-level CHANGELOG.md at release time.

Why

Two PRs that both edit the ### Fixed block of CHANGELOG.md always conflict on merge — git can't pick a serialization order without human input. Two PRs that each add a fresh .changeset/<unique-name>.md never conflict because they don't share lines.

See #2975 for the full rationale.

Adding a fragment

node scripts/changeset/new.cjs \
  --type Fixed \
  --pr 1234 \
  --body "fix the thing — explain the user-visible change in one sentence"

This writes .changeset/<adjective>-<noun>-<noun>.md with frontmatter and a body. Three random words → concurrent PRs don't collide.

Format

---
type: Fixed
pr: 1234
---
**`/gsd-foo` no longer drops trailing slashes** — explain the user-visible change.

Allowed type: values follow Keep a Changelog: Added, Changed, Deprecated, Removed, Fixed, Security.

Opting out

PRs that legitimately have no user-facing impact can add the no-changelog label. CI honors it. When unsure, add the fragment.

At release time

Promotion is automatic. The release workflow's finalize job runs:

node scripts/changeset/cli.cjs render --version vX.Y.Z --date YYYY-MM-DD --allow-empty

This reads every fragment, groups bullets by type:, replaces ## [Unreleased] with a new ## [vX.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD block, opens a fresh ## [Unreleased] above, and deletes consumed fragments. The --allow-empty flag ensures a no-change release still gets a dated heading (with a _No notable changes._ placeholder). A subsequent verify step confirms the promotion landed correctly. Maintainers do not run this by hand.

Archived fragments

.changeset/archived/ holds fragments for already-shipped releases (≤ 1.3.1), retained for provenance. Their content was hand-curated into the dated ## [1.x.y] sections of CHANGELOG.md during the #690 backfill — they were never consumed by render. All changeset tooling enumerates .changeset/ non-recursively, so archived fragments are never picked up or rendered. Do not move them back to the top level.
