Tom Boucher 3f6b063fbb chore(#2799): invoke_reviewers and write_reviews iterate declared lanes (#2861)
* chore(#2799): resolve reviewer lanes into executable invocation plans

Phase 5b of ADR-2782. Adds the resolver and runner that let invoke_reviewers
iterate declared lanes instead of hand-authored per-CLI bash.

Five additive descriptor amendments, each forced by a lane that ships today:
- LaneHandler gains 'opencode' — the lane rebuilds its review from assistant
  text parts of a --format json stream; a plain stdout copy re-breaks #1936.
- modelConfigKey — antigravity's key is review.models.agy, not .antigravity,
  so resolving by slug silently dropped a configured model.
- defaultHost/fallbackModel — Phase 4 federated every *_host with a default of
  empty string; the real fallback only existed in the bash.
- args becomes an argv template with a closed four-placeholder vocabulary.
  Positional splicing produced 'codex --model M -o F exec --ephemeral', which
  is not a valid invocation: codex injects in the middle, twice.
- kimi-code lane, with the bounded command-capability probe (needle
  --output-format) that tells Kimi Code from the legacy python kimi-cli.

Parity gate re-pointed: the workflow-text families it scanned are the text this
phase deletes, so they are replaced by descriptor-to-registry parity plus an
anti-parity check that no bespoke leg returns.

jq, curl and external timeout/gtimeout all drop out of the review path.

Refs #2782

* chore(#2799): add review-lane query surface and widen the manifest vocabulary

Adds the gsd-tools 'review-lane' route (plan/invoke/sections) the workflow
loops over, projects all twelve lanes into their capability manifests, and
widens capability-validator for the amendments.

opencode admitted to VALID_LANE_HANDLERS under the second arm of the enum's
own admission rule: one lane, justified by a documented upstream defect data
cannot express (#1936 — the agent can end its turn with zero output tokens and
--format default then drops the assistant text entirely).

Two bugs caught by an end-to-end stub run and fixed here:
- loadConfigResolved returns a provenance wrapper, not the config; using it
  directly resolved every key to undefined, which reads as 'nothing
  configured' and silently dropped every model override.
- hasBinary used shell:true with an args array (Node 26 DEP0190). Replaced
  with a PATH scan that spawns nothing at all.

* chore(#2799): iterate declared lanes in invoke_reviewers and write_reviews

Replaces the eleven hand-authored per-CLI bash legs with a loop over resolved
lanes, and renders REVIEWS.md sections from each lane's declared
reviewsSection instead of thirteen hardcoded headings. review.md drops from
1104 lines to 507 (61KB to 28.7KB).

Parity gate re-pointed, as agreed: the leg-marker and section-heading families
scanned exactly the text this phase deletes, so they are replaced by
descriptor-to-registry parity in both directions, plus an anti-parity check
that fires if a bespoke leg is ever re-added. Enum, emitting sites and the
Object.keys lock moved together.

The budget-trim helper is hoisted out of the Ollama leg: it was always
lane-agnostic, and any lane may now declare a promptBudgetKey.

Refs #2782

* feat(#2799): bind the consented egress host and re-verify it at invocation

Completes ADR-2782 D5. Rule 1 was recorded in the ADR as delivered by Phase 3
but was not implemented: ConsentRecord had no host field and nothing in the
tree bound one, so this phase's rule-4 comparison had no baseline.

ConsentRecord gains an OPTIONAL reviewerHost. Optional is the whole design:
isValidConsentRecord does not require it, so every record already on disk
stays valid and no re-consent storm fires (D4 rule 5). It is deliberately
excluded from disclosureSignature — the loader has no config resolver, so
folding a config-derived value in would make loader and lifecycle compute
different signatures for the same manifest and re-prompt forever.

Install resolves hostConfigKey (falling back to the lane's declared
defaultHost, which is what the invocation path uses) and records it.
Invocation re-resolves and blocks on mismatch rather than silently
redirecting. Absence allows: no record, or a record predating the field,
means nothing to compare — denying there would break every existing
local-model user on upgrade.

Refs #2782

* test(#2799): cover the resolver, runner and handlers; retarget the parity suites

Adds the golden invocation-plan table (one row per shipped lane, derived from
the bash legs rather than the descriptor types) plus runner coverage for the
probe, empty-output policy, the three handlers and the egress check.

Retargets the existing suites onto the new contract: descriptor-to-registry
parity, the anti-parity check, the opencode handler, and the twelfth lane.

Two corrections found by running them:
- modelConfigKey was required; that breaks D4 rule 2, since a reviewer
  manifest authored before this phase would fail validation on upgrade. It is
  optional, read as null when absent.
- the antigravity non-zero-exit test pre-seeded the transcript, which asserted
  that a STALE entry leaks through — the exact bug the watermark prevents. The
  spawn now appends, as the real tool does.

Refs #2782

* fix(#2799): restore agy --add-dir and the self-report prompt in the handler

Retargeting the three legacy reviewer suites off the deleted bash surfaced two
real regressions in the port, both #2176:

- --add-dir was dropped. Without it agy's permission context never receives the
  cwd repo, so the agent anchors on its own scratch dir and reviews the plan
  text in isolation — the exact failure the Review Instructions forbid. It is
  capability-probed, because an older agy rejects the unknown flag outright and
  a lane that fails to start is worse than one running on the prompt anchor.
- the prompt lost the clause mandating a REVIEWED-WITHOUT-REPO-ACCESS
  self-report, which is what makes a blind review distinguishable from a
  grounded one. antigravity now builds its own prompt variant.

Also ports the #2073 mode-2 cli.log diagnostic, which was dropped: a pinned
model that 404s exits 0 with empty stdout AND an empty transcript, so agy's own
log is the only evidence that anything failed.

The three suites now assert against the plan and the handler instead of
matching fence text, so they no longer need allow-test-rule exemptions.

Refs #2782

* docs(#2799): document the declared lanes, the new flag, and dropped prerequisites

COMMANDS.md gains --kimi-code and replaces the jq-prerequisite paragraph,
which is now false: no lane requires jq, curl or an external timeout. Adds the
changed-egress-destination behavior, since a blocked lane is something a user
can hit.

CONFIGURATION.md records that the model config key is declared per lane rather
than derived from the flag — antigravity's is review.models.agy — and adds
review.models.kimi-code.

reviewer-instances.md now routes an instance through its lane's single
invocation seam instead of a copied per-adapter bash block, which is what lets
a cross-cutting fix reach instances for free. That required implementing the
--model/--agent/--as flags it documents; --model re-resolves through the lane's
argv template rather than splicing, so the flag lands where the lane declares
it rather than ahead of a subcommand.

CONTEXT.md glossary gains both new modules.

Refs #2782

* chore(#2799): drop the stale emitted-drift acknowledgment

The only entry was #2797's, acknowledging COMMENT-ONLY GROWTH in review.md.
That file now shrinks by ~32KB and every emitted hash that moved is
attributable to this diff, so the ack no longer explains anything. Removing
the last entry means removing the file: its presence is the alarm, and an
empty one signals nothing.

Verified by deleting it and re-running the attribution and provenance gates
plus lint:ci — all green without it.

Refs #2782

* docs(#2799): record the Phase 5b vocabulary widenings in ADR-2782

Five additive amendments, each forced by a lane that ships today, plus two
corrections the phase had to make rather than work around:

- D5 rule 1 was recorded as delivered by Phase 3 and was not implemented, so
  this phase's rule-4 comparison had no baseline. Recorded because an ADR
  asserting a rule was delivered is exactly what stops a later phase checking.
- The DEFECT.GENERATIVE-FIX gate is re-pointed: its workflow-text families
  scanned the text this phase deletes.

Also records that D7's 'skip the probe where no bounding mechanism exists'
carve-out is obsolete — in practice it meant the Antigravity lane ran unbounded
on every stock macOS host, which ships neither timeout nor gtimeout.

Refs #2782

* fix(#2799): close four defects found by adversarial review

Two confirmed bugs, both reproduced before fixing:

- resolveLanePlan was not total. An openai-http lane with a missing or
  non-object invoke dereferenced inv.hostConfigKey and threw, contradicting
  the module's own documented contract; the spawn branch guarded correctly and
  the http branch did not. The CLI seam resolves every selected lane in one
  map, so one malformed overlay manifest would have aborted the whole review
  rather than dropping its own lane. Guarded, plus a per-lane try/catch at the
  seam so a throw can never take down siblings.
- A reviewer-instance model was silently dropped for any lane declaring
  modelConfigKey null (cursor, qwen, coderabbit). reviewer_instances validates
  that cli is a known slug but never that the slug accepts a model, so a user
  could configure one, get a clean run, and never learn a different model
  reviewed their plan. Now warns explicitly.

Two hardening fixes:

- The slug is concatenated into artifact paths, so LANE_SLUG_RE is enforced in
  the resolver rather than inherited from a validator that does not run on this
  path — the module documents itself as the overlay-manifest trust boundary, so
  it should not depend on someone else having checked.
- normalizeHost mangled a scheme-less value: new URL('localhost:11434') parses
  with an empty hostname, so it became 'localhost://11434' and was compared and
  requested as if real. An empty hostname now means not-a-URL.

Also documents the one gap that cannot be closed here: the antigravity
watermark is keyed by workspace, so two concurrent reviews of the same repo
share a transcript. agy exposes no per-invocation id to filter on, so the
handler now states which half of its never-stale guarantee actually holds.

Refs #2782

* test(#2799): retarget the remaining eight review.md-asserting suites

The remote runner found 37 failures the local sweep missed (it hit the shell's
two-minute cap before reaching these). All eight extract per-CLI bash from
review.md that this phase deletes; each protects a real invariant, so each is
retargeted onto the plan, the runner or the handler rather than removed.

Three real defects surfaced by doing so:

- effort args never reached ANY lane. model-resolver.cjs exports no
  resolveExecution, so effortFor silently returned [] every time. Restored by
  calling the same bounded resolve-execution query the bash legs used — and
  NOT with --raw, which prints the resolved effort rather than the picked
  field, so claude got 'low' instead of '--effort low'.
- the timeout guidance lost 'a silent empty output is a timeout kill, not a
  crash' — the operator note that exists because of the Codex 0xc0000142
  misdiagnosis. Restored.
- the opencode handler dropped EMPTY assistant text parts. The shipped jq was
  , and  only substitutes for false/null — an empty
  string is truthy in jq and contributed a blank line. Found by a property
  test shrinking to ['', ''].

The opencode property suite no longer spawns jq at all, which deletes the
#2099 hang mechanism it was architected around rather than mitigating it.

Refs #2782

* fix(#2799): register the two new generated modules, and untrack them

The remote runner caught build output committed to git. Both new modules
compile from src/*.cts into gsd-core/bin/lib/*.cjs, and every sibling generated
that way is gitignored and eslint-ignored (ADR-457) - including Phase 1's own
review-lane-descriptor.cjs. Mine were neither, so repo-invariants' "each
bin/lib/*.cjs is linted xor ignored according to migration state" failed.

Registered both in .gitignore and eslint.config.mjs alongside the Phase 1
module, and dropped them from the index. Nothing about the shipped behaviour
changes; the artifacts are rebuilt by build:lib.

This is the new-.cts-module registration ripple, and it is the one part of it I
had not completed - the CONTEXT.md glossary and the inventory manifest were
already done.

Cross-AI peer review — invoke external AI CLIs to independently review phase plans. Each CLI gets the same prompt (PROJECT.md context, phase plans, requirements) and produces structured feedback. Results are combined into REVIEWS.md for the planner to incorporate via --reviews flag.

This implements adversarial review: different AI models catch different blind spots. A plan that survives review from 2-3 independent AI systems is more robust.

Check which AI CLIs are available on the system:

jq-dependent reviewer lanes. jq is a production prerequisite for the ollama, lm_studio, llama_cpp, opencode, and antigravity lanes only. If detect_clis reports jq:missing, treat those five as undetected — they follow the same "known-but-undetected" path as a missing CLI. Which path that is depends on how the lane was selected (see the precedence rules below): reached through review.default_reviewers or --all it is an info note and the lane is ignored; named by an explicit flag it is an error, because the user asserted that lane. Tell the user to install jq:

NOTE: jq is not on PATH — the ollama, lm_studio, llama_cpp, opencode, and
antigravity reviewer lanes are unavailable. Install jq (https://jqlang.org/download/)
or select a lane that does not require it (--gemini, --claude, --codex,
--coderabbit, --qwen, --cursor).

The remaining lanes (gemini, claude, codex, coderabbit, qwen, cursor) do not require jq and must stay selectable on a jq-less host.

Parse flags from $ARGUMENTS:

  • --gemini → include Gemini
  • --claude → include Claude
  • --codex → include Codex
  • --coderabbit → include CodeRabbit
  • --opencode → include OpenCode
  • --qwen → include Qwen Code
  • --cursor → include Cursor
  • --agy or --antigravity → include Antigravity CLI
  • --ollama → include Ollama (local server, OpenAI-compatible)
  • --lm-studio → include LM Studio (local server, OpenAI-compatible)
  • --llama-cpp → include llama.cpp (local server, OpenAI-compatible)
  • --all → include all available (CLIs + running local servers)
  • No flags → if review.default_reviewers is set, include only configured reviewers that are detected; otherwise include all available

Reviewer-selection precedence:

  1. Individual reviewer flags (--gemini, --codex, etc.)
  2. --all
  3. review.default_reviewers
  4. No key + no flags → all detected reviewers

Explicit reviewer flags are an assertion, not a preference (ADR-2782 D4). A lane the user named on the command line and that cannot run is an error, surfaced and non-silent — even when other named lanes did run. Do not proceed with a thinner reviewer set and report success: --gemini --qwen on a host without qwen fails, it does not quietly become a Gemini-only review. This applies however the lane became unavailable — binary missing, prerequisite jq absent, or a local server not reachable.

The asymmetry is deliberate: not finding a lane nobody asked for is normal; failing to run a lane somebody asked for is an error. A user who wants "whatever is available" has --all; a user who wants a preferred set has review.default_reviewers. Both stay lenient below.

review.default_reviewers behavior:

  • Value must be a non-empty array of slug strings (configured via gsd config-set review.default_reviewers '["gemini","codex"]')
  • Unknown slugs warn and are ignored
  • Known-but-undetected slugs emit an info note and are ignored — a configured default is a preference evaluated across many hosts, so a subset being present is expected, not an error
  • If all configured reviewers are unavailable, fail with an actionable message

Reviewer instances (#1517, optional): if review.reviewer_instances is configured, instance names in review.default_reviewers run as independent identities. Resolution rules are in gsd-core/references/reviewer-instances.md — load it lazily only when instances are configured. Unconfigured → default path unchanged.

If no CLIs are available:

No external AI CLIs found. Install at least one:
- gemini: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli
- codex: https://github.com/openai/codex
- claude: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code
- opencode: https://opencode.ai (leverages GitHub Copilot subscription models)
- qwen: https://github.com/nicepkg/qwen-code (Alibaba Qwen models)
- cursor: https://cursor.com (Cursor IDE agent mode)
- agy: curl -fsSL https://antigravity.google/cli/install.sh | bash (Antigravity CLI — free with Google credentials)

Then run /gsd:review again.

Exit.

Determine which CLI to skip based on the current runtime environment:

# Environment-based runtime detection (priority order)
if [ "$ANTIGRAVITY_AGENT" = "1" ]; then
  # Antigravity is a separate client — all CLIs are external, skip none
  SELF_CLI="none"
elif [ -n "$CURSOR_SESSION_ID" ]; then
  # Running inside Cursor agent — skip cursor for independence
  SELF_CLI="cursor"
elif [ -n "$CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT" ]; then
  # Running inside Claude Code CLI — skip claude for independence
  SELF_CLI="claude"
else
  # Other environments (Gemini CLI, Codex CLI, etc.)
  # Fall back to AI self-identification to decide which CLI to skip
  SELF_CLI="auto"
fi

Rules:

  • If SELF_CLI="none" → invoke ALL available CLIs (no skip)
  • If SELF_CLI="claude" → skip claude, use gemini/codex
  • If SELF_CLI="auto" → the executing AI identifies itself and skips its own CLI
  • At least one DIFFERENT CLI must be available for the review to proceed.

3. When a plan asserts a mechanism works (a guard, a query filter, a test that exercises a path), trace whether it actually does what is claimed — do not take the plan's word for it.
4. If you cannot read the repo (no file access), say so and downgrade that finding to an open question rather than asserting it.

Findings citing `file:line` evidence are weighted far more heavily than impressionistic ones; a review that only restates the plan's own claims has low value.

Analyze each plan and provide:

1. **Summary** — One-paragraph assessment
2. **Strengths** — What's well-designed (bullet points)
3. **Concerns** — Potential issues, gaps, risks (bullet points with severity: HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW)
4. **Suggestions** — Specific improvements (bullet points)
5. **Risk Assessment** — Overall risk level (LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH) with justification

Focus on:
- Missing edge cases or error handling
- Dependency ordering issues
- Scope creep or over-engineering
- Security considerations
- Performance implications
- Whether the plans actually achieve the phase goals

Write to a temp file: {run_dir}/gsd-review-prompt.md

Also write individual section files so the budget tool can re-trim per reviewer:

RUN_DIR="{run_dir}"   # from gather_context

# Write individual section files for per-reviewer budget trimming
# These are always written so reviewers with a budget can invoke prompt-budget
cp "$INSTRUCTIONS_BLOCK_FILE" "${RUN_DIR}/gsd-review-instructions.md"
cp "$ROADMAP_SECTION_FILE" "${RUN_DIR}/gsd-review-roadmap.md"

# Plan files: copy each PLAN.md to a predictable numbered path
PLAN_INDEX=0
for PLAN_FILE in "${PHASE_DIR}"/*-PLAN.md; do
  PADDED_IDX=$(printf '%02d' "$PLAN_INDEX")
  cp "$PLAN_FILE" "${RUN_DIR}/gsd-review-plan-${PADDED_IDX}.md"
  PLAN_INDEX=$((PLAN_INDEX + 1))
done

# Optional section files (only if content was included in the combined prompt)
if [ -f ".planning/PROJECT.md" ]; then
  cp .planning/PROJECT.md "${RUN_DIR}/gsd-review-project.md"
fi
if ls "${PHASE_DIR}/"*"-CONTEXT.md" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  cat "${PHASE_DIR}/"*"-CONTEXT.md" > "${RUN_DIR}/gsd-review-context.md"
fi
if ls "${PHASE_DIR}/"*"-RESEARCH.md" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  cat "${PHASE_DIR}/"*"-RESEARCH.md" > "${RUN_DIR}/gsd-review-research.md"
fi
if [ -f ".planning/REQUIREMENTS.md" ]; then
  cp .planning/REQUIREMENTS.md "${RUN_DIR}/gsd-review-requirements.md"
fi

Note: INSTRUCTIONS_BLOCK_FILE, ROADMAP_SECTION_FILE, and PHASE_DIR come from prompt assembly; RUN_DIR is the run-scoped dir from gather_context (#2358) re-assigned from {run_dir} above. Copy the temp files written during prompt assembly to these section paths (or write each section here if the prompt was built inline).

Every reviewer lane is **declared data** (ADR-2782). This step iterates the lanes the selection resolved; it does not enumerate them. Adding a reviewer is a capability manifest, not an edit here.

Do not re-add a per-CLI block. A <!-- reviewer-lane: … --> marker anywhere in this step now FAILS the parity gate (checkReviewerLaneParity → bespoke_leg_present). Lane divergence is declared in the manifest — timeout floor, probe, prompt/output channel, empty-output policy — and behaviour that data genuinely cannot express is a named first-party handler (ADR-2782 D6), never a bespoke block here.

Timeout guidance (#2194): prompt-fed source-grounded reviews are slow — measured ~570 s for Codex at xhigh effort and ~525 s for headless Claude on a large plan set. Each lane declares its own timeoutFloorMs and the runner enforces it internally, but the Bash tool call wrapping the loop below must still be given a high timeout: — at least 900000, and 1200000 when Codex or headless Claude are in the selection — or the host kills the whole loop mid-lane. On Claude Code, raise the host cap via BASH_MAX_TIMEOUT_MS if a review can exceed it.

A silent empty output after a long run is a timeout kill, not a crash — the Codex 0xc0000142 misdiagnosis persisted for exactly this reason, because an empty result cannot distinguish the two on its own. Treat an empty result on a slow lane as a dropped lane and re-run with more time rather than diagnosing a CLI or sandbox failure. A cross-AI review that silently drops a lane is blind in one eye.

No hook-trust bypass (#2479): no lane passes a hook-trust bypass flag and none runs a capability probe for one. That flag only bypasses persisted hook trust (a first-run condition) and flagless invocations work in steady state, while host-harness safety classifiers deny commands carrying it. An environment that genuinely hits an untrusted-hook prompt surfaces through the .err capture and the empty-output stub as a dropped lane with diagnosable stderr, not silent attrition. Do not reintroduce the flag (even spelled out in prose — a regression test bans the literal file-wide).

Reviewer instances (#1517, optional): instances resolve through a lane and are not lanes themselves (ADR-2782 D8). Each selected instance invokes its base cli with its own model/agent as opaque argv. Exact invocation in gsd-core/references/reviewer-instances.md.

Lanes run sequentially, not in parallel — concurrent invocation trips provider rate limits.

Each lane leaves {run_dir}/gsd-review-<slug>.md — its review, or a diagnostic stub carrying the captured stderr (and, for an OpenAI-compatible lane, the raw response body, where such a server puts its error JSON on an HTTP 4xx/5xx while still exiting 0). A stub is never mistaken for a clean review: it keeps its "failed or returned empty output" header (#2494/#2605/#2794).

A lane that will not run reports a typed reason rather than an empty file — missing_binary, probe_failed, probe_timeout, missing_required_binary, host_unreachable, egress_host_changed, unknown_handler, budget_too_small. egress_host_changed means the lane was consented to send plans to one destination and .planning/config.json now names another; it is blocked, not silently redirected (ADR-2782 D5).

Combine all review responses into `{phase_dir}/{padded_phase}-REVIEWS.md`:

After all reviewers complete, collect trim metadata files written during the run. For each reviewer that was trimmed (i.e. a .metadata.json file exists and hardFailed or omitted is non-empty, or projectMdShrunk is true, or planTruncationPct > 0), include a trimmed_reviewers block in the frontmatter. Omit the key entirely if no reviewer was trimmed.

Reviewer instances (#1517, optional): when instances ran, frontmatter records their names, each gets its own ## <Adapter> Review (<instance>) section, and ≥2 same-cli instances print a one-line shared-adapter caveat. Format in gsd-core/references/reviewer-instances.md.

# Cross-AI Plan Review — Phase {N}

<!-- Sections are RENDERED from each lane's declared `reviewsSection`, in descriptor order.
     There is deliberately no hardcoded per-reviewer heading list here any more: a hand-maintained
     list is exactly the drift #2781 was filed about, and it silently disagreed with the roster.
     `gsd_run query review-lane sections --selected "$SELECTED_REVIEWERS"` emits
     `<slug><TAB><reviewsSection>` in order; for each row, emit:

         ## <reviewsSection> Review

         {contents of {run_dir}/gsd-review-<slug>.md}

         ---

     Two headings must NOT be generated from this list, because they are not lanes:
       * `## <Adapter> Review (<instance>)` — an ADR-1517 reviewer INSTANCE resolves THROUGH a lane
         and is rendered from the instance list, not the lane list (ADR-2782 D8).
       * `## Consensus Summary` — not a review section at all.

     A lane whose `evidenceClass` is `diff-only` (CodeRabbit) carries its caveat from data: it never
     received the source-grounding prompt, so its verdict is folded in as a diff observation and is
     not weighted as a grounded plan review. -->

## Consensus Summary

{synthesize common concerns across all reviewers. CodeRabbit is a diff-only reviewer (it never received the source-grounding prompt), so do not weight its verdict as a grounded plan review — fold in its diff findings, but base plan-level consensus on the prompt-fed reviewers. A reviewer output carrying the `[reviewed-without-repo-access]` marker (or beginning with `REVIEWED-WITHOUT-REPO-ACCESS`) ran without repo access (#2176) — treat it the same way: note its concerns, but do not count its verdict at full consensus weight.}
