Garry Tan 55fbe77195 v1.91.24.0 test: audit wave — PR evals keep finished work, honest ceilings, EVAL_POLICY v2, faster free suite (#3031)
* chore(scripts): retire hollow and legacy paid package scripts behind one-release stubs (W8a, DX-4, CEO-31)

test:codex*, test:evals*, test:e2e*, test:gate, test:periodic, eval:bg,
eval:bg:all, eval:flake-rank, eval:watch and test:audit now print their
replacement and exit 1 via scripts/retired-command.ts. CONTRIBUTING.md
carries the same table; test/retired-commands.test.ts pins both. Eval CLI
empty-state hints point at eval:bg:pr.

* chore: delete dead update-readme-throughput, eval-watch, orphan fixtures and QA_FUNCTIONAL_INPUTS (W8b, CEO-24)

Retired with named behavior:
- update-readme-throughput.ts + readme-throughput test: replaced a README
  anchor that no longer exists from a JSON file that was never produced;
  the script was a no-op. Guarantee withdrawn (nothing to protect).
- eval-watch.ts + its dashboard tests: rendered ~/.gstack-dev/e2e-live.json
  and _partial-e2e.json, written only by unsharded runs, so it showed
  nothing for every supported (sharded) entry point. Guarantee withdrawn;
  live progress is the gstack-detach log or gh run watch. Manual-review
  rendering stays covered by eval-list and eval-summary tests.
- Orphan fixtures (autoplan-pending-artifact-ae.json, autoplan-existing-app/,
  autoplan-sign-in-ui/, parity baselines v1.47.0.0/v1.57.7.0/v1.69.1.0):
  no test, touchfile or script reads them; superseded baselines stay in
  git history.
- QA_FUNCTIONAL_INPUTS: exported, never imported.

* refactor(test-free): delete dead WORKER_HOSTILE list and buildShardArgs parallel mode

Neither had a production caller: full-suite mode runs shard processes, so the
worker quarantine was inert and --parallel was never passed (W8b).

* docs(test-value): narrow prompt-byte contract to machine-read tokens (D2)

Define prompt-byte contract as machine-read tokens (markers, field names,
command lines, enum values, file paths, security-boundary strings) and add a
sentence-pin glossary entry: convert to structural checks or delete when a
behavioral eval covers the behavior.

* test(ratchet): count free tests that slice a paid test's source

A free test that binds readFileSync(<paid test file>) and cuts it with
.slice() tests the paid harness's code out of context even when it imports a
lib/ symbol. Record the 15 existing files with reasons; new ones fail with fix
text. Self-test covers positive and negative shapes.

* test(browse): un-quarantine compare-board; all 16 board tests pass headless (W8d, CEO-24)

The GSTACK_COMPARE_BOARD_TESTS opt-in hid a headless mismatch that no
longer reproduces: all 16 tests pass on Bun 1.4.0 with the bundled
headless Chromium, solo, repeated, and beside other in-process browser
files. Protected behavior (the comparison-board DOM contract the
plan-design-review/office-hours/design-consultation feedback loop polls)
is checked on every free run again.

* test: replace silent existsSync early returns with explicit skips or assertions (W8d)

- browse/test/build.test.ts: server-node.mjs checks skip only when the
  bundle is absent and GSTACK_EXPECT_BINARIES is unset; the free CI lane
  and test:ubicloud build it and set the flag, so a dropped build step
  fails with the build command instead of passing with no assertions.
- gstack-update-check: VERSION is tracked; the guard could only hide a bug.
- gen-skill-docs host leakage/frontmatter checks assert the host tree
  exists (the module-level render always produces it).
- cso-docker staged-runtime test uses test.skipIf so reports show it as
  skipped, not passed.

* test(ship): convert ship-workflow-clarity sentence pins to structural checks

Add test/helpers/prompt-structure.ts (between, expectTokens, expectAbsent,
expectOrdered, expectMentions) with fix text on failure. ship-workflow-clarity
now pins headings, step order and machine-read tokens (commands, fields, enum
and status strings); safety rules are meaning-level keyword checks. Wording is
judged by the 'ship/SKILL.md workflow' judge in skill-llm-eval.
Sentence pins: 90 -> 0.

* ci: add platform-qualification lane for opt-in ML, gitleaks and Swift tests (W8d, CEO-24)

security-bench + security-live-playwright L4 (SECURITY_BENCH), the real
gitleaks 8.30.1 memory-ingest cases (GSTACK_TEST_GITLEAKS) and the
DebugBridge Swift build invariants (GSTACK_TEST_SWIFT) self-skip in every
lane today. No scheduled lane has their prerequisites, so per CEO-24 they
move to an owned dispatch + quarterly workflow instead of being deleted.
Each job was run locally (ML 10 pass, gitleaks 130 pass; Swift needs
macOS). test/platform-qualification-workflow.test.ts pins gate variable,
job and file together.

* fix(scripts): capture-baseline and preflight-agent-sdk no longer act on --help or typos (W8e)

capture-baseline parses its flags strictly: --help prints usage, an unknown
or valueless flag exits 2, and only a valid invocation writes a fixture
(--help used to write test/fixtures/parity-baseline-current.json).
preflight-agent-sdk gains --help, rejects unknown flags, and runs the live
SDK query (API spend) only with --live.

* test(evals): register the three keyless periodic paid files with case ids (W1b)

skill-e2e-auq-consistency, skill-e2e-auq-verbose-vs-carved-ab and
codex-e2e-recommendation-substance now carry touchfiles, a periodic tier and
kind rule (one trial, unchanged), so editing one selects its own case instead
of restoring the full PR gate. The verbose A/B case also registers the vendored
pre-cut fixture it reads, and review-army-migration-safety registers the SQL
fixture it reads.

* feat(evals): narrow PR fallback for free-only inputs (W1a, CEO-13/20, ENG-13)

The PR profile now exempts the duration seeds, every free-lane workflow
(explicit list; inventory test fails on an unclassified workflow, .yaml
and workflow_call included), scripts/ubicloud/** and fixtures declared in
the explicit FREE_FIXTURES map. Each remaining unknown file carries a label
and fix (needs touchfile entry / add to FREE_ONLY_PR_FILES / real unknown
dependency). evals.yml itself still restores the full gate.

* ci: delete ci-image.yml; the eval workflows already build and push the same content-hash tag (W8f)

evals.yml, evals-periodic.yml and evals-marathon.yml each compute the
identical hashFiles() tag and build/push it (with :buildcache and :latest)
when missing, so ci-image's push trigger and weekly cron were no-ops
(30-day median 0.5 min, 36/36 success). ci-image-tag-binding now pins the
three eval workflows.

* ci(evals): key periodic/marathon concurrency on ref+event; branch periodic dispatch skips the gate census (W2a, ENG-9, CEO-04)

* refactor(paid): drop ~160 unused imports; leaf paid-types/paid-select modules break the paid-* import cycle (W8c)

* ci(quality-gate): per-PR concurrency, free runner, drop unscoped bun audit (W2a, W8f)

- Concurrency keys on pull_request.number || run_id, so back-to-back main
  pushes no longer cancel each other's credential scan.
- ubuntu-24.04 instead of a billed 8-vCPU Ubicloud runner for a ~1 min job.
- bun audit --audit-level=critical ran on every PR regardless of diff, so a
  newly published advisory turned unrelated PRs red, with its own ignore
  policy. dependency-review (lockfile PRs, fail >= high) and the weekly OSV
  sweep remain the dependency gates.

* chore(test-free): refresh the free duration seed from the audit's Ubicloud recording

Adds the 19 files merged after the last refresh, including the 115 s
claude-overlay-setup that packed as ~1 s and doubled a shard (W6a). The seed
is re-recorded on the final tree at the end of this wave.

* ci: move tiny ubicloud-standard-2 jobs to free ubuntu-24.04 runners (W8f)

actionlint, skill-docs, dependency-review, version-gate and pr-title-sync
are sub-minute jobs; GitHub-hosted runners are free for this public repo.

* feat(test-free): pessimistic unseeded packing, seed growth ratchet and CI health summary

- Unseeded files pack at the seed's p99 instead of p75 (W6a).
- --ci-plan warns in the job summary past 5 unseeded files; --ci-verify
  lists shards that outran their prediction by 1.5x (and 30 s) plus every
  flaky pass absorbed by the serial retry (W6a, W7a job summary).
- test/free-seed-ratchet.test.ts fails when a seeded file over 60 s is not
  on scripts/free-test-seed-allowlist.json, when an entry is stale, and when
  the allowlist grows versus its merge-base copy unless the new entry is an
  annotated exception with a todo (CEO-10, DX-7). free-plan runs it with
  full history so the shrink check is real in the required lane.
- Every message names the fix command and docs anchor (DX-6).

* feat(evals): state PR coverage mode, counts, reuse and fallback files in the summary and comment (CEO-13)

* test: make the tracked-tree skill-doc freshness check local-only; tidy skill-docs header (W8f)

Every free CI shard regenerates the tracked SKILL.md files before running
tests, so the --dry-run freshness assertion compared the regenerated tree
with itself and could not fail there. It now skips under GitHub Actions;
skill-docs.yml's git diff --exit-code is CI's freshness gate. Removes a
stale concurrency comment in skill-docs.yml.

* ci(free-tests): install zsh so the bash+zsh portability arms run (W6f)

~42 zsh-arm tests (aside-probe-shell, qa-browser-preservation,
generated-docs-fences) skipped in CI because zsh is not in the runner image.
All 141 tests in those files pass with zsh present.

* feat(evals): executors write negative receipts at the execution boundary (CEO-25, ENG-6)

A completed single-trial rule/judge shard that did not pass now writes its
negative receipt beside the pass receipts in the slice artifact, so a
cancelled run's FAIL still blocks an older PASS when its report never runs.
Receipts merge negatives first and order by (run attempt, completedAt); a
same-second FAIL/PASS tie resolves to FAIL. The runner call site is a
one-line hunk in scripts/test-paid-shards.ts.

* docs(cso): state that contained runtime/scanner execution is unavailable today

The scanner catalog is empty while its build inputs await review and the
runtime catalog holds no qualified profile until the private evaluator
exists, so /cso runs static assessment only. AGENTS.md, README and
docs/cso-release-qualification.md now say so; docs/cso-scanners.md
already did.

* test(helpers): expectMentions splits on sentence ends only

Clauses joined by ';' or ':' are one rule; splitting there made a reworded
rule fail for punctuation.

* test(plan-ceo): convert skill-ceo-section-ordering sentence pins

Safety and authority rules (never/do not/stop/only/without/wait/approval) are
meaning-level expectMentions checks; other sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, option rows, placeholders and machine-read lines (auto-decide
annotation, Mode:/approved decisions format, STATUS/SOURCE fields,
CROSS-MODEL marker, gstack-ceo-mode-handoff) stay as tokens; ordering checks
unchanged. Behavior is covered by the periodic PTY case in
skill-e2e-plan-ceo-review-section-loading.test.ts.
Sentence pins: 210 -> 23.

* test(helpers): expectMentions treats wrapped lines as one sentence

Templates hard-wrap prose; only sentence ends and blank lines separate rules.

* test(gen-skill-docs): convert sentence pins to meaning checks or drop them

Safety/authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks; other English
sentences are dropped (wording is judged by the per-skill workflow judges in
skill-llm-eval and the E2E cases in touchfiles-data). Commands, config keys,
markers (PLAN MODE EXCEPTION, NO UNRESOLVED DECISIONS, Gate outcome), field
names and alternation-based meaning regexes stay. Removed the now-empty
'contains opt-in AskUserQuestion text' test (only pinned a sentence; the
resolver's AskUserQuestion wiring is covered by the codex second-opinion
tests in the same describe). Lane E's existsSync hunks are untouched.
Sentence pins: 216 -> 65 (remaining lines carry machine tokens).

* ci(windows): shard the Windows lane via --ci-plan/--ci-run/--ci-verify; move native campaigns to native-qualification.yml

- windows-free-tests.yml: a Linux plan job curates and packs the Windows-safe
  files into 6 shards, one strict serial shard per windows-latest job, and a
  Linux aggregate verifies exact coverage and every result (8.1 min on one
  runner today). --windows-only now combines with the CI modes; the plan binds
  the curated file set (W6e).
- Every Windows plan and --list run prints the curated count with its top
  exclusion reasons in the job summary; a free ratchet fails when the curated
  subset drops below its floor, with the fix (W6e).
- The four Dia/cookie diagnostic dispatch campaigns move to the dispatch-only
  native-qualification.yml with one exclusive `mode` choice input, so their
  red dispatch runs no longer read as a red PR lane (W8f). Their workflow pins
  move to test/windows-native-workflows.test.ts; the boolean-exclusivity
  guard is replaced by the choice input.

* feat(paid): per-slice CI job ceilings and an in-process slice deadline with not_run/hung outcomes and checkpoints (W2c, ENG-2)

* fix(pass-rates): segment trial history strictly by EVAL_POLICY version

Reader-compatibility floor for EVAL_POLICY v2 (ENG-14/CEO-35/DX-12). Only
trials under the reader's own policy version feed labels and alarms; older
policy trials stay visible but are never scored or used as a drift baseline;
trials from a newer policy are ignored with a printed count and fix text.
Reverting the later v2 writer commits leaves a reader that cannot pool v2
records into v1 series (the pre-PR reader at 2db0b3a does: it reports a
mixed fixture as FAILING with drift alarms).

* docs: one contributor command table; retired commands, seed sources and current workflows (W8g, DX-5, DX-13, CEO-12)

- CONTRIBUTING.md gains 'Which command do I run?' (task -> command ->
  cost/time -> needs, including branch validation via gh workflow run);
  CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md and TESTING_INTERNALS.md link to it instead of
  repeating command lists. Tier tables drop retired commands and stale
  per-run dollar estimates.
- Retired names (test:evals, test:e2e, eval:bg, eval:flake-rank, eval:watch,
  ...) are gone from CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, TESTING_INTERNALS.md,
  ARCHITECTURE.md and USING_GBRAIN_WITH_GSTACK.md.
- The flake-ledger claim now says what happens: CI uploads flake-ledger-*
  artifacts; eval:pass-rates reads only the local ledger.
- TESTING_INTERNALS states that only test:ubicloud --record-durations
  produces an acceptable duration seed (DX-13).
- CI section: quality gate no longer runs bun audit; dependency-review's
  real trigger; the platform-qualification lane.
- docs/test-audit-2026-09.md gets a corrections section for its stale claims.
- TODOS.md: audit follow-ups (post-merge metrics, stub removal, name reclaim,
  diff-aware planner); eval-watch shard-awareness and the image freshness
  tripwire closed as won't-do.

* feat(evals): recover receipts of cancelled PR runs (W1c, CEO-14/34, ENG-4/5/7)

A new recover-receipts job runs base-ref code with actions: read, restores
the PR's store, merges the receipts of completed cancelled evals.yml runs
for this PR (provenance-checked, at most 5, oldest first, negatives first),
reconstructs completed panel negatives with panelVerdict() (partial panels
get no credit) and keeps a recovery.json checkpoint that never advances past
an unresolved run. plan-slices keeps contents: read, takes the store as an
artifact, turns reuse off when recovery degraded or a run is unresolved, and
carries the whole store to slices-report so nothing is lost. Any gh problem
degrades to no recovered receipts with a named reason.

* feat(evals): classify this wave's free-only tools and workflows for PR selection

platform-qualification.yml, retired-command.ts, test-health-report.ts,
bump-harness-version.ts and eval-bg.ts never run inside a paid case.

* feat(evals): debounce PR push bursts before planning paid slices (W1d, CEO-15, ENG-11, DX-7)

A tiny ubuntu-24.04 job waits 90 s only on synchronize when another run for
the PR started in the last 15 minutes; cancel-in-progress supersedes, and a
run that outlives the wait reports "superseded by <sha>" and plans nothing.
Labels: evals-no-debounce skips the wait, evals-fresh disables receipt reuse.

* perf(test): move the real-process browser settlement cases out of test-free-shards.test.ts (W6b)

The 19 owned-browser settlement modes were 85 s of the file's 95 s and could
not be packed apart from the fast runner unit cases. They move to a shared
fixture with two files (lifecycle 47 s, ownership 39 s); the unit file drops
to 10 s. Same modes, same assertions.

* chore(evals): delete the finished validation_phase dispatch and its inline planner (W8f)

Retirement (CEO-24): the protected behavior was a one-off cookie-repair
validation subset (eight dependent cases) and a quality/behavior split of
the census; that validation is complete, so the guarantee is withdrawn.
Branch validation dispatches evals.yml with evals_all.

* perf(test): inject the office-hours record grace in non-cooperative deadline tests

* perf(test): shrink aside-render process slack via GSTACK_RENDER_SLACK_MS in timeout tests

* perf(test): make the memorable lock give-up configurable for lock-contention tests

* perf(test): check install-timeout knob normalization through its own setup lines

* perf(test): inject a 2 s storage-reset deadline in the late isolated dispatch test

* perf(test): shorten the slow gbrain fake to 1 s, still past the 300 ms probe timeout

* ci(free-tests): run only cso-docker-integration in the free CSO Docker job (F16)

cso-node-lifecycle-integration and cso-stack-cold-integration need
GSTACK_CSO_TEST_STACK images and always skipped there; they stay in the CSO
runtime workflows through test:cso:docker.

* test(gen-skill-docs,plan-ceo): split mixed sentence pins into tokens and rules

Sentences that wrap a backticked or bold token keep the token (expectTokens)
and, when they state a safety rule, a keyword check; short safety sentences
(25-39 chars) get the same treatment.

* test(plan-ceo): convert ceo-workflow-clarity.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: periodic PTY case skill-e2e-plan-ceo-review-section-loading and the plan-ceo workflow judges.
Sentence pins: 13 -> 1.

* test(plan-eng): convert eng-review-routing.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: plan-eng E2E cases (skill-e2e-plan-eng-*) and the plan-eng workflow judge.
Sentence pins: 28 -> 6.

* test(plan-eng): convert eng-scope-entry-ap.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: plan-eng E2E cases (skill-e2e-plan-eng-*) and the plan-eng workflow judge.
Sentence pins: 16 -> 5.

* test(plan): convert plan-scope-selection.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: plan-review E2E cases and workflow judges in skill-llm-eval.
Sentence pins: 19 -> 2.

* test(qa): convert qa-lazy-sections.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: qa/qa-only E2E cases (skill-e2e-qa-*) and the qa workflow judge.
Sentence pins: 71 -> 11.

* test(qa): convert qa-browser-preservation.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: qa/qa-only E2E cases (skill-e2e-qa-*) and the qa workflow judge.
Sentence pins: 25 -> 11.

* test(qa): convert qa-probe-gates.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: qa/qa-only E2E cases (skill-e2e-qa-*) and the qa workflow judge.
Sentence pins: 20 -> 5.

* test(qa): convert qa-checkpoint-evidence.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: qa/qa-only E2E cases (skill-e2e-qa-*) and the qa workflow judge.
Sentence pins: 7 -> 5.

* test(qa): convert qa-evidence.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: qa/qa-only E2E cases (skill-e2e-qa-*) and the qa workflow judge.
Sentence pins: 4 -> 3.

* test(design): convert design-consultation-contract.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: design-consultation E2E/judge cases in touchfiles-data.
Sentence pins: 44 -> 11.

* test(outside-voice): convert run-in-background-guidance.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: outside-voice E2E cases and plan-review workflow judges.
Sentence pins: 35 -> 5.

* test(spec): convert spec-template-invariants.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: spec E2E/judge cases in touchfiles-data.
Sentence pins: 36 -> 21.

* perf(evals): 420 s census slice budget; case-shard skill-e2e-qa-workflow; seed its case walls (W5c)

* feat(evals): evals.yml dispatch contract for eval:bg (CEO-17/29, DX-1, ENG-8/12)

workflow_dispatch gains base_ref, base_sha, expected_sha, nonce and
pr_receipts. The nonce appears in run-name so the dispatcher resolves its
own run; evals_all=false runs the PR profile against base_sha/base_ref; a
checkout that differs from expected_sha fails before any paid work with a
named fix; pr_receipts reads that PR's receipts read-only through the
recover-receipts artifact path (never the cache) and never saves.

* ci(windows): pack the Windows lane with Windows-measured durations (W6e)

The first sharded run (37221451711) finished in 6.0 min: the Linux seed has
browse/test/cookie-import-native-job.test.ts at ~0 s (its cases skip on
Linux) but it takes 122 s on Windows, so one shard ran 242 s against an 84 s
prediction. The plan now reads scripts/free-test-durations-windows.json; a
record_durations dispatch times every Windows-safe file alone and uploads it.

* test(free): settlement case files import the runner rule they exercise

Keeps the split files out of the test-of-test ratchet: the retry-eligibility
rule is a direct runner import passed to the shared fixture.

* fix(marathon): no hollow plan-decision-classification shard; office-hours marathon scenario scoped to the pilot (W2f)

* test(free): satisfy the typecheck:test ratchet in the seed ratchet test

* refactor(ci-history): one shared GitHub history reader with the CI flake-ledger reader

Extract pass-rates' gh fetch layer into scripts/lib/ci-history.ts (CEO-09) and
add the W7a reader: paged run listings that fail whole on any page error,
per-run artifact downloads (cached, size-capped, data only), flake-ledger
parsing, the pre-registered flaky-file rule (> 5% of main free-tests runs over
a window of at least 20 runs, widened to the newest 20 runs when the window is
thinner), a job-summary table, and named unavailable reasons with next steps.

* feat(test-health): test:health report of the audit success metrics

scripts/test-health-report.ts (CEO-09/06/22/32, DX-8/9/12/13) prints every
success metric with its counting rule from CI history: PR full-fallback rate,
reused PR trial records, PR-lane spend per merged PR and per validated
revision, cancelled slice-minutes per week, push-to-verdict p50/p95, census
expected failed trials per run with raw failure rate per kind/class and
P(lane red) under the recorded panels vs single-trial aggregation, INFRA
re-dispatches, quarantine evidence (insufficient evidence distinct from
healthy), free flaky-pass rate, free/Windows wall, free serial time and the
net-complexity line. An unreadable input prints 'unavailable: <reason>; next:
<step>', never 0. --enforce fails on a flaky file (W7a) or > 5 unseeded free
files (CEO-10); unavailable checks never fail and keep the issue open.

* test(review): convert review-workflow-clarity.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: review E2E cases (skill-e2e-review*) and the review workflow judge in skill-llm-eval.
Sentence pins: 85 -> 17.

* test(review): convert review-entry-and-design-clarity-au.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: review E2E cases (skill-e2e-review*) and the review workflow judge in skill-llm-eval.
Sentence pins: 15 -> 4.

* test(review): convert review-enum-lifecycle.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: review E2E cases (skill-e2e-review*) and the review workflow judge in skill-llm-eval.
Sentence pins: 8 -> 0.

* test(ship): convert ship-control-flow.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: ship E2E cases (skill-e2e-ship*, skill-e2e-workflow) and the 'ship/SKILL.md workflow' judge.
Sentence pins: 74 -> 9.

* test(ship): convert ship-skip-requeue.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: ship E2E cases (skill-e2e-ship*, skill-e2e-workflow) and the 'ship/SKILL.md workflow' judge.
Sentence pins: 28 -> 3.

* test(ship): convert ship-plan-completion-invariants.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword
freely, keep the rule); other English sentence pins are dropped. Headings,
labels, placeholders, commands, field names, enum/status tokens and ordering
checks stay. Behavior and wording: ship E2E cases (skill-e2e-ship*, skill-e2e-workflow) and the 'ship/SKILL.md workflow' judge.
Sentence pins: 28 -> 12.

* test(ship): convert ship-reentry-gates.test.ts sentence pins

Safety and authority sentences become expectMentions keyword checks (reword

* test(plan-ceo): restore the stale closing-route guard

The negative check for 'Closing hooks' / 'return to section' guards a retired
route token, not a sentence; the first conversion pass dropped it.

* ci(test-health): weekly test-health workflow with an honest tracking issue

New test-health.yml (CEO-18/DX-9): Monday 10:00 UTC after the periodic census
plus dispatch, free ubuntu-24.04 runner, permissions contents:read +
actions:read + issues:write only. Runs bun run test:health --since-days 7
--enforce; an enforced failure upserts one tracking issue, a run with
unavailable inputs keeps it open and lists them, and it closes only when every
enforced check has evidence and passes. Only main runs touch the issue.

* feat(evals): an edited paid test file runs its own gate cases in the PR lane (DX-11)

A gate case outside the audited fast profile is selected when its single
owning paid test file changed and the runner can select it by name (its
Bun test is named by the case id). The manifest records directCases and
validation accepts only recorded, name-addressable ones; the runner and
planner read the file->cases map from test-pr-profile. Cases the runner
cannot address stay deferred with the fix. An inventory test covers every
owned gate case. Touches one hunk each in test-paid-shards.ts and
lib/paid-plan.ts, and pr-shared-input-selection.test.ts's ship-skip pin.

* ci(osv): tracking issue for scheduled reds and a 14-day suppression expiry test

F11/W8f: a failed main OSV scan now upserts one tracking issue and a clean
scan closes it (scheduled reds notified no one during the August backlog).
A free test fails 14 days before any .osv-scanner.toml ignoreUntil (all four
expire 2026-11-30), with the fix: upgrade and delete, or re-justify and move
the date.

* test(ship,review): keep guards against retired fail-open instructions

'skip silently' on reviewer failure and 'do not block /ship on subagent
failure' were harmful instructions, not prose style; keep them absent with the
shortest distinctive phrase.

* feat(eval-select): default to the pr profile

DX-10: eval:select previews the PR lane's selection by default, matching
test:pr and eval:bg:pr; --profile full (or EVALS_PROFILE=full) keeps the plain
touchfile selection.

* test(evals): type-clean the recovery gh fake (typecheck:test ratchet)

* chore(windows): record the Windows duration seed (run 37221963236)

573 Windows-safe files timed alone on windows-latest; cookie-import-native-job
is 102 s there. Six shards now predict 154 s each.

* feat(evals): eval:bg dispatches the pushed ref to CI or runs locally under a 1.5x-planned cap (W5d, CEO-17/29, DX-1/2/3/7, ENG-12/19)

* feat(runners): --help on both shard runners via the shared flag loop; paid runner header describes today's planner/executor/report (W8e)

* test(windows): drop the stale Playwright exclusion and force-include probe-proven files (W6e)

A temporary windows-latest probe (run 37221995077) ran each of the 97 files
excluded for 'launches Playwright browser' or 'raw /tmp/ path' alone: all 17
Playwright files pass (Chromium is installed and Bun drives it there), and 41
of the /tmp files pass with executed cases. The Playwright pattern is removed
and the 41 files are force-included with the probe as their reason; the 36
real failures stay excluded. The curated subset grows from 573 to 631 files
and the ratchet floor follows. Windows curation moves to
scripts/lib/windows-curation.ts (the runner drops to 2000 lines).

* test(free): one install fixture cloned from a read-only seed (W6c, ENG-1)

Merge test/helpers/setup-codex-scope-fixture.ts into install-fixture.ts.
The checkout is built once per test file into a read-only seed and cloned
per fixture with copy-on-write where the filesystem has it (full copy
otherwise), restoring each file's own mode; clones never hard-link the
seed because put() and tests write in place. Callers register
afterAll(cleanupSeed); Bun's runner fires no exit event, so seeds of
killed runs are swept by pid. test/install-fixture.test.ts is the ENG-1
tripwire: put/setVersion/chmod in one clone leave the seed and a sibling
unchanged, and clones share no inodes with the read-only seed.

* test(free): split claude-overlay-setup by describe (W6b)

The 115 s serial file becomes default/lifecycle/installs files (5/4/3
tests, unchanged bodies) sharing test/helpers/claude-overlay-fixture.ts,
so the shard packer can balance them.

* test(windows): exclude the skip-only claude-overlay setup files from the Windows subset

Their real-setup cases are describe.skipIf(win32); after the split their bin/
spawns live in the shared helper, so the source scan stopped seeing them.

* test: restore pins on renderer output and paid-fixture inputs

cso-contracts (the report renderer's required empty phrase), memory-ingest
(binary output), carve-plan-fixture, ship-skip-actor and cso-eval (inputs the
paid harness builds) assert product or fixture output, not skill prose, so the
value-bar narrowing does not apply to them.

* feat(eval-policy): v2 series identity, HARNESS_VERSION guard and identity backtest

W4a (CEO-27/ENG-3/DX-6), not yet wired to the writer: caseSeriesIdentitiesV2
keys a case by the bytes it owns (paid test file, fixtures, its skills' prompt
files including the generated SKILL.md) plus HARNESS_VERSION, and records the
full consumed-input fingerprint as provenance. scripts/harness-version.json
pins the blob of every shared-harness file (GLOBAL_TOUCHFILES plus the session
runners, PTY harness, e2e gate and LLM judge), one line per file;
test/harness-version.test.ts fails on drift with both fixes, and
scripts/bump-harness-version.ts records the decision: --bump (new series for
every case) or --non-behavioral (compatibility entry, no reset).
eval-trial-series --backtest replays identities over weekly main revisions
and recorded trials (ENG-3/DX-12).

* feat(pass-rates): weekly history is main's scheduled runs plus main dispatches

W4b: pass-rates reads evals-periodic history from main only, keeping scheduled
runs and main dispatches and never a branch dispatch, so back-to-back branch
validation runs neither feed pass rates nor count as weeks for quarantine
expiry or drift. --branch <name> still reads one branch's runs for inspection.

* docs(test-audit): EVAL_POLICY v2 decision memo with the identity backtest

D1 memo (CEO-33, ENG-3, DX-12, CEO-27): P(green) arithmetic, false-blocking
targets, the v2 identity rule and harness guard, weekly history, W4c evidence
(the named 'stochastic' cases pass 26/27 to 34/34, so they stay rule), the
backtest over 29 weekly main revisions and 14,898 recorded trials, what it
means for quarantine reachability, alternatives (gating vs trended, adaptive
panels not adopted, buy vs build), and the rollback proof on the pre-PR reader.

* feat(eval-policy): EVAL_POLICY v2 writer: case-owned series identity

The v2 writer, last commit of the W4 block (DX-12/ENG-14/ENG-21): the report
job's stamp now writes caseSeriesIdentitiesV2 (case-owned bytes plus
HARNESS_VERSION) as series_identity, the full consumed-input fingerprint as
series_fingerprint and harness_version as provenance, and EVAL_POLICY.version
is 2 (approved 2026-10-04, D1). The v1 touchfile identity is removed.
Rollback = revert this commit (and the W4 commits above the reader-compat
floor); readers then ignore the v2 records with a printed count.

* test: restore pins on paid-harness prompt inputs

review-enum-lifecycle and plan-review-report-recording assert the prompt a
paid case's harness builds (opts.prompt / call.prompt), a fixture contract,
not skill prose.

* test(security): check injected safety lines on meaning, not capitals

content-security, the canary instruction and the arm judge prompt still must
carry their never-follow / never-output / exact-"none" rules; the checks are
case-insensitive keyword checks so emphasis can change. The UNTRUSTED envelope
markers and "none" value stay exact tokens. (Hidden element stripping fails
locally only because Playwright Chromium is not installed; same at base.)

* test(plan-ceo): keep the outside-voice scope-summary rule as a meaning check

The first codemod pass left an empty if body (TS1313).

* chore(windows): re-record the Windows duration seed for the 631-file subset (run 37222668939)

* ci(free-tests): summarize every shard's flake ledger in the aggregate job (W7a)

The aggregate downloads flake-ledger-* (one subdirectory per shard) and
appends lane C's `scripts/test-health-report.ts flake-summary` output to the
job summary before strict verification. The runner's own flaky table is
dropped so the ledger reader stays the single source; --ci-verify keeps the
shard-overrun warning.

* feat(evals): free test files anywhere and the stored-zip helper never restore the full PR gate (W1a)

The CEO-23 replay found design/test free tests forcing fallback (36485436963).

* feat(evals): replay recorded PR pushes through today's selector (CEO-23, ENG-18)

scripts/replay-pr-selection.ts reports per push the recorded vs replayed
mode and case count, dropped gate cases, retired failed cases and every
miss (a failed case that depends on the diff but is no longer selected).

* refactor(evals): one case-sharded carve-section-loading file with a case id and touchfiles per skill (W5a)

* test(free): hold qa-deadline's full-pipe case on a FIFO, not a paused Bun stream

Bun gives a child 'pipe' stdio a unix socketpair, so whether the 2 MB fill
actually blocks depends on the parent's reader and the host's socket buffer
sizes. CI (run 36761671811, both attempts) saw exit 0 after ~130 ms; with
net.core.{w,r}mem_default=4 MiB locally the old case fails 3/3 the same way.
A FIFO the test never reads is bounded by the kernel pipe buffer, so the
receipt write genuinely blocks and the 5 s settlement deadline must fire.
The 7 s bound now starts once the preload has queued the write.

* test(free): event-driven waits in pty-output-wake

close-releases-observers: the 500 ms wall race becomes an ordering check
(the waiter is released while only SIGINT has been sent, before close's
escalation finishes), and the Bun.spawn spy fakes only the PTY launch so a
shard neighbor's in-process spawn cannot add a stray SIGTERM (CI runs
36015568981, 36036582721, 36074636848).

continuous-redraws: the fixture spinner stops once the observer has made
five coalesced reads, so the run reaches its work deadline with no redraw
in flight. Streaming right up to the deadline raced the helper's screen
drain and failed as 'PTY screen parse failed; viewport is incomplete'
(5 CI runs 09-30..10-03; 4/40 locally under 8 busy loops, 0/40 after).

* test(free): session-runner long-capture handshake waits for the collected Read event

The fake CLI's init line arms the runner's work-phase timer, so the worker's
handshake (work-ready + a >200 s timer) could pass before the runner's read
loop had collected the Read event printed just before work-ready. Advancing
the clock then killed the run with the Read lost: readSection false (CI run
37194511124). The worker now also waits for the runner's own progress line
for that Read. Forcing the observed ordering (work-ready 200 ms before the
Read line) fails the old test deterministically and passes the new one.

* test(free): budget-override restores the CI variables it rewrites

Its provenance cases set and then deleted CI, GITHUB_ACTIONS, GITHUB_REF_NAME,
GITHUB_SHA and the GitLab CI_* names without restoring them, so in a CI shard
every later file ran with CI unset. qa-only-cleanup's real browse daemons
then launched Chromium without --no-sandbox, the sandbox failed on the
runner, and both real-Chromium cases timed out with 'QA cleanup fixture did
not become ready' (shard 12 attempt 1 of six runs on 10-04, retry alone
green). Retained startup log: 'Chromium sandboxing failed!', child env with
no CI. Reproduced 3/3 with CI=true, userns denied and budget-override ahead
of qa-only-cleanup in one process; 0/3 after.

* test(free): pr-shared-input-selection names its base and package history

Every selection now passes EVALS_BASE and packageVersionOnly explicitly, so
no case reads the checkout's git state. Before, 12 calls ran
detectBaseBranch and the cumulative case diffed package.json against
merge-base(origin/main, HEAD) — the ambient input that turned main red in
runs 36572856858 and 36594314027. A PATH git spy counts 14 git calls in the
old file and 0 now.

* feat(evals): derive PR-lane dependents for unmapped files instead of restoring the full gate

scripts/pr-dependencies.ts derives, from the checked-out tree, which paid
cases consume each repository file: test import closures, repo paths and
path.join segments in code/shell/skill text (whole-line comments and
selection data excluded), bin script names, compiled binaries by outfile
path (scripts/build.sh), package scripts, template placeholders through
RESOLVERS, and host configs by host id. The global touchfiles' import
closure is global.

PR selection: an unmapped file with derived consumers puts the run in the
new 'dependents' mode (every dependent gate case and judge, no profile cut);
a tracked file under a derivable directory that nothing reaches is exempt;
periodic/marathon workflows, .gitignore and tsconfig.test.json never run
the PR gate. PR_FULL_GATE_FILES is the fail-closed list (deps, CI image,
setup, build, evals.yml and its actions, test preload, tsconfig.json,
.gitattributes, the skill generator and preamble resolvers, the eval
policy). Untracked or underivable files restore the full gate with fix
text. The summary and PR comment list derived dependents.

* feat(evals): replay misses count derived dependents; report wave vs ordinary pushes (CEO-23)

* test: drop FREE_FIXTURES entries for fixtures deleted in W8b

* test: re-shape the census attribution fixture to qa-workflow and carve case shards

* test: census fixture case order

* ci: 420 s PR-lane slices with per-slice ceilings; periodic tracking issue only on main

evals.yml joins the census lanes at the 420 s slice budget (W5c/CEO-15) and
indexes each eval slice's job timeout from .plan.sliceCiTimeoutMinutes with
the slice-deadline clock as its first step (W2c/ENG-2). evals-periodic.yml's
tracking-issue upsert and close run only on refs/heads/main, so a branch
dispatch whose gate census is skipped (CEO-04) never opens or closes #2755.

* docs: integrate lane docs for the audit wave (eval-bg backends, PR fallback, policy v2, ceilings, evidence)

- CLAUDE.md: 'Running evals as an agent' describes scripts/eval-bg.ts's
  dispatch and local backends, forcing flags, the sentinel and status;
  eval:select's PR-profile default; prompt-structure helper and value-bar
  terms. instruction-facts now requires scripts/eval-bg.ts in that section.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: decision table gains test:health, eval:select default,
  eval:bg backends and the include_gate_census / evals_all dispatch lines;
  420 s runners and per-runner ceilings; flake ledger, OSV tracking issue
  and expiry test, weekly test health; prompt-structure guidance.
- AGENTS.md: build commands name the eval:bg backend choice and test:health.
- docs/TESTING_INTERNALS.md: anchors the fix texts point to
  (#pr-paid-lane-fallback, #pass-rate-policy-versions, #harness-version,
  #flake-ledger, #duration-seed), receipts/recovery/debounce, per-slice
  ceilings, the slice deadline with not_run/hung and checkpoints, the eval-bg
  cap formula in place of the detach floors, EVAL_POLICY v2 history, carve
  case shards via --case.
- docs/test-audit-2026-10.md: CEO-23 replay (165/168 -> 164/168
  full-fallback, 0 misses), ENG-17 slice table (re-measured on this tree),
  D2 prose-pin metric.
- TODOS.md: progress note on 'Let pass-rate history decide the rest'.
- test/testing-internals-anchors.test.ts: every TESTING_INTERNALS.md#anchor
  named in code must match a heading.

* test(free): hold qa-deadline's blocked-output-pipe receipts on a FIFO

The five 'guard %s receipts survive a blocked output pipe' cases filled a
paused Bun child pipe with 2 MiB. That pipe is a unix socketpair, so the
fill only blocks while the host's socket buffers are smaller than the write:
with net.core.{w,r}mem_default=4 MiB the old cases fail 13 of 15 case runs
(the guard finishes before the test resumes the stream). The held stream is
now a FIFO the test drains only after resume(), bounded by the kernel pipe
buffer; Windows keeps the paused pipe. Bounds and assertions are unchanged.

* test(free): qa-deadline waits for a written pid, not just the pid file

DRIVER and LEAF write their pid with writeFileSync, so under load ready()
can see the file before its digits and fail 'expected > 0, received 0'
(seen once in 150 loaded runs). After any early failure the finally
SIGKILLs the CLI, which orphans the detached command group; a leaf whose pid
file is not yet readable then keeps the output stream open and the case
hangs to its 15 s timeout (2/80 old-file runs and 3/310 FIFO-only runs
under 8 busy loops; the instrumented hang showed the CLI already SIGKILLed
by the finally). ready() now polls within the same 3 s bound until the file
holds a positive pid.

* fix(evals): a deleted file selects the dependents of the live files that still reference it

PR selection treated every path absent from the head tree as an unknown
dependency, so any PR that deleted a file forced the full gate. A deleted
path is now placed like a live one, against the head tree: a matching
touchfile selects its cases; live code, skill text or a full-gate input that
still references it (path, extensionless import target, relative import,
bin name, ancestor directory, compiled-binary outfile; whole-line comments
and data files excluded) contributes its dependents, a full-gate referencer
restores the full gate with a 'deleted but still referenced' fix, and an
unreferenced deleted path has no dependents. Deleted PR_FULL_GATE_FILES
entries still force the full gate. Tests that used absent paths as stand-ins
for new unmapped files now use tracked root files (or an explicit tracked
set); the CEO-23 replay counts misses through those references too.

* docs: integrate free-suite lane docs (seed anchor, Windows lane, native qualification, install fixture, flake rules)

- docs/TESTING_INTERNALS.md: '### Free suite duration seed' (the anchor the
  seed messages link) with DX-13, the 99th-percentile packing, --ci-plan
  warning, --ci-verify overruns and the CEO-10 seed ratchet; the Windows
  6-job lane, its Windows-measured seed and refresh dispatch, curation and
  WINDOWS_CURATED_FLOOR; native-qualification.yml modes; the merged
  install fixture; test-only timing knobs; the flake-ledger job summary,
  Windows ledger names and three free-suite flake rules; zsh in the
  Ubicloud mirror.
- scripts/test-health-report.ts links #free-suite-duration-seed, so the
  two seed messages share one heading (the anchor test caught the split).
- CONTRIBUTING.md: Windows seed refresh and native qualification rows;
  seed-source pointer. AGENTS.md: Windows six-job lane.
- docs/cso-release-qualification.md: the free CSO Docker job runs only
  cso-docker-integration.test.ts.
- docs/test-audit-2026-10.md: free-suite evidence lines.
- TODOS.md: CEO-11b progress note on the pre-push hook hang.

* test: final duration seeds on the integrated tree; retire the emptied cookie-validation-phases file

Linux seed re-recorded on Ubicloud standard-16 and the Windows seed from
dispatch run 37227140871, both at c903310. The seed allowlist drops the three
entries that are no longer over the ceiling. cookie-validation-phases lost its
validation-phase pins with W8f and its Windows/Dia pins moved to
windows-native-workflows with native-qualification.yml, so the file is
deleted and the curated Windows floor rises to 638. The Windows recorder writes
the seed at its default path so GSTACK_FREE_TEST_DURATIONS never leaks into
timed tests.

* test: re-express stale PR-lane pins against the new evals.yml contract

- ci-eval-cache: the profile/fresh expressions now include evals_all=false
  dispatches and pr_receipts/evals-fresh; the PR store is restored only by
  recover-receipts (still scoped to repository_id + PR, PR events only),
  plan-slices takes it as an artifact and never touches the cache, saves
  stay PR-only, EVALS_CACHE_PR binds pr_receipts dispatches, and the report
  verdict artifact carries report receipts.
- ci-paid-coordination: plan-slices needs only the two ubuntu coordination
  jobs (never the image); the fork/Dependabot clause is unchanged on
  plan-slices and also gates debounce and recover-receipts; only recovery
  holds actions: read.
- qa-supervision-selection: auq-consistency and auq-verbose-vs-carved-ab
  (W1b) reach claude-pty-runner and pty-screen through auq-sdk-capture,
  exactly as auq-format-gate does.
- paid-retry-supervision: the full-validation plan uses a tracked full-gate
  input (setup); an absent path is now a deletion placed by its references.

* ci(windows): record the Windows seed at the default path

* chore: HARNESS_VERSION non-behavioral decision for the audit-wave integration

* v1.91.20.0 release metadata: test, eval and CI audit wave

* test(compare-board): wait for the post-submit state the feedback POST settles

The two post-submit assertions read the board once, but the board disables
the submit button and shows the message only after its feedback POST
resolves. On a loaded Ubicloud shard the read beat the round trip (FLAKY-PASS
in the final free-suite run). Delaying the POST by 400 ms reproduces both
failures at HEAD; polling for the settled state passes.

* test(plan-eng plan-mode): run the seeded STOP-gate smoke in its own fixture project

The seeded plan proposes a custom test runner, so the review's Step 0 reads
the working tree's test setup. In the gstack checkout that is gstack's own
sharded runner, and the case timed out at 300 s in census 37228573062 after
this wave reshaped the runner. It now runs in a four-file Bun project with
git history, with the product-notice suppression auto-decide-preserved's
standalone fixture already uses. Local pass on Bun 1.4.0 + Claude Code
2.1.284: asked in 121 s, seed tokens observed.

* test(plan-mode evidence): pin the seeded eng smoke's isolated fixture cwd and env

* ci(image): Git >= 2.44 so paid shared-libs cases run the supported safe-git path

bin/gstack-safe-git prefixes every /deslop-shared-libs Git read with
--no-lazy-fetch, which noble's git 2.43 rejects (exit 129). The eval image
therefore ran every paid shared-libs case on the unsupported-Git fallback:
local history unavailable, branch HEAD unknown. shared-libs-read-only failed
on exactly that in PR run 37230639146 ("Current branch HEAD: unknown. The
safe-git probe failed (unknown option: --no-lazy-fetch, git 2.43.0)") and in
2 of 74 earlier PR runs. The image installs current Git from the Ubuntu Git
Maintainers PPA and fails its build if --no-lazy-fetch is missing; the
deliberate unsupported-Git case keeps its fake Git.

* eval: pool matching branch census trials into main's pass-rate series (D1 option b)

Approved 2026-10-05. eval:pass-rates also reads completed branch census runs
in the weekly window. A branch trial counts only toward a series a main run
also has (same case-owned bytes, HARNESS_VERSION, model and CLI), so a branch
extends main's history but never starts or becomes a case's current series;
weeks for quarantine expiry still count main runs only. The D1 backtest put
this at 67 of 210 cases with enough trials for the entry rule, against 0 of
195 on main alone.

* C2: /qa defines its outcome filename fields; QA report templates name the measured timing fields

Low judge samples in failing panels named both: qa workflow (37186854666)
'an undefined {user} in the outcome filename', and qa-only workflow
(37198445662) 'template asks for Duration / durationMs totals while
reporting.md mandates Probe budget and Guarded command time'. The qa
union stays under its 1.11 size ratio (93292 of 93294 bytes).

(cherry picked from commit e14c0c1de1)

* C2: Browser Quick gets a feasible budget; QA loop names its directory and stop path

Judge rationales on the qa-only panels (2 of the last 3) cited the 30 s
Browser Quick budget: homepage + 5 targets, each a checkpoint write and a
guarded command, left ~5 s per probe. Quick is now 180 s (method text: 3
minutes); the qa-only-no-fix paid check expects the same native deadline.
PROBE_DIR points at its source line, a stopped loop goes to the final
report steps (annotations, materialize, Markdown), and /review and /ship
say that after smoke expiry only plan checks rerun in revalidation.

(cherry picked from commit 78d4a2a343)

* qa: fit the C2 judge fixes under the qa and review size caps

Brings GSTA-21's qa.ts trims (3bd625d, ce73af0) for the cherry-picked C2
wording: PROBE_DIR keeps 'owned', the stop line points at §4, and the
post-expiry rule is one sentence, so /review fits its cap. qa measures
93,303 / 84,049 = 1.11010 against the same 1.1102 cap GSTA-21 set. The
qa-only workflow judge passed 10 of 10 local trials on this wording (7 of 10
before the C2 fixes).

* test: qa-only fixture keeps its caller-set 30 s deadline

The qa-only-no-fix fixture tells the model to start the guard with 30 s
(a caller limit), so its deadline assertion's default stays 30 000 ms; the
product's Browser Quick default (180 s) does not apply to it. Reverts the
helper and its test to their base.

(cherry picked from commit e36e622add)

* test: qa-quick sets a caller probe limit and drains past its session budget

C2 raised Browser Quick's native budget to 180 s. qa-quick is the only gate case
on the native budget, and its wall went 194 s (main periodic, pre-C2) -> 254 s and
274 s (this PR's runs) -> 300 s session timeout (run 37242691913): the agent now
probes every navigation target with a checkpoint, then needs ~80 s to report.
Like qa-only-no-fix, the eval now sets a caller probe limit (30 s), scopes the
fixture, and gives bun's outer timeout the session drain margin instead of racing
the 300 s session. The product's 180 s budget and the session budget are unchanged.
Diagnostic rerun passed in 195 s.

(cherry picked from commit f8dc64031e)

* chore: restore the audit wave's package scripts after the main merge (version 1.91.23)

* qa: keep main's one-sentence post-expiry rule for /review and /ship

The C2 variants ("step 4c reruns plan checks only" and "even in 4c") read
to the review workflow judge as conflicting with Step 5.8's repeat-pass
reruns: 6 of 10 local trials passed with the longer sentence and PR run
37248650879 failed on the shorter one. Main's "Post-expiry smoke rechecks are
not-run." passed 10 of 10. qa (9/10), qa-only (10/10) and
ship-managed-hook-refresh (10/10) were measured on the same tree.

2026-10-05 01:29:54 +00:00
Garry TanandClaude Fable 5 e76f65a8da v1.77.0.0 feat: test-infrastructure overhaul wave 1 — matrix deletion, flake telemetry, sync-spawn wedge class extinct (#2746)
* fix: pin the claude CLI to an exact version in the CI image + tripwire

The image installed @anthropic-ai/claude-code UNPINNED and rebuilt weekly
'to pick up CLI updates' — while bun sat carefully pinned at 1.3.13 two RUN
lines above. The PTY harness screen-scrapes this CLI's TUI, and that drift
broke it three separate times (welcome-screen wedge on 2.1.233, skillify
HOME discovery on 2.1.237, guard/freeze hooks on 2.1.162), each debugged as
a flake first. Pin 2.1.251 (current latest), bump deliberately via a PR
that runs the PTY gate, and enforce with test/ci-image-cli-pin.test.ts:
any global npm install in Dockerfile.ci without an exact @X.Y.Z pin fails
the free suite. The weekly ci-image cron stays as a cheap tag self-heal.

* feat: stamp the claude CLI version into every eval-store run record

Three harness breakages were traced to claude-CLI TUI drift only after long
flake hunts, because no run record said which CLI it actually exercised.
EvalCollector now stamps claude_cli_version (claude --version, cached once
per process, 'unknown' when the binary is absent) into both partial and
finalized records — schema-additive optional field, no SCHEMA_VERSION bump.
Correlating a flake wave with a CLI release becomes a grep over
~/.gstack/projects/<slug>/evals/ instead of archaeology.

* fix: give the spinning-shard kill test load headroom (30s -> 90s)

The test spawns and group-kills three real children (one a busy-loop
burning a full core) while five sibling shard processes compete for eight
vCPUs. Under full-suite load it blew bun's default 30s per-test ceiling at
30,009ms — while passing in isolation in 1.4s — and red the only required
lane. Every assertion in it is event-based (statuses, group-kill proof,
heartbeat lines); the sole latency claim is the <30s kill-deadline sanity
bound, which stays. Explicit 90s headroom, not a weakened oracle.

* feat: green-by-skip census — skip counts in the classifier, all-skipped labeling in the paid runner

bun's 'Ran N tests' line COUNTS skipped tests, so a codex/gemini shard
whose every test self-skipped (binary absent on the runner — true of every
CI runner today) exits 0, dodges the hollow-shard guard, and reads as
coverage in the weekly census. The classifier now parses bun's ' N skip' /
' N pass' recap lines; ShardOutcome carries skippedTests; formatSummary and
the fail-closed slices report label an all-skipped pass explicitly:
'all N tests SKIPPED — verified nothing'. Status stays 'passed' (external
service availability is host state, not a repo regression) but the census
can no longer mistake absence for coverage.

* refactor: extract composite actions for eval-lane setup; surviving lanes gain the fail-fast registry verification

'Fix bun temp' x3, 'Restore deps' x5, 'Seed claude interactive config' x3,
and 'Register gstack skills' x3 were byte-near-identical copies across the
legacy matrix, the sliced lane, and the periodic lane — and only the MATRIX
copy of register-skills carried the 19-line dangling-symlink + frontmatter
fail-fast loop written after a silent 'Unknown command' + 35-min-timeout
incident. Extract all four into .github/actions/ composites; the register
composite carries the verification loop (generalized over the skill list),
so the sliced and periodic lanes — the lanes that SURVIVE the matrix
deletion — now inherit the check they had silently dropped. Matrix-job
inline copies are left untouched: that job is deleted next.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: delete the legacy 17-row eval matrix — the sliced lane is the only paid lane

Every PR paid twice: the hand-enumerated matrix (18 test files, 22.6 min,
~$21 API measured on run 33263204465) ran serialized AHEAD of the strictly
superior sliced lane via 'needs: evals' — 35.5 min wall and ~2x paid spend
for the same diff. 14 of 17 rows carried no tier:, so periodic Opus
benchmarks leaked into every PR (the e2e-plan row alone: 12/12 tests,
21.7 min, $7.28 — the wall-clock bound of ALL of CI).

Parity receipt (static, pre-deletion): the sliced lane's gate census (49
files, derived from the runner itself) strictly contains all 18 matrix test
files, plus 31 files the matrix never ran. Pure deletion — one revert
restores it. The PR comment moved into slices-report (same '## E2E Evals'
upsert marker, now sourced from slice artifacts + carrying the fail-closed
reconciliation verdict). plan-slices loses the needs edge; the dead
workflow-level EVALS_TIER env goes with it.

test/evals-workflow-matrix.test.ts (and its KNOWN_MATRIX_GAPS /
KNOWN_TIER_UNSET burn-down ratchets — retired: the sliced census makes
'every gate file runs' true by construction) is rewritten as
test/evals-workflow-wiring.test.ts: matrix stays deleted, planner/executor/
report tier + slice-count agreement, both surviving lanes on the shared
register-skills composite with its fail-fast verification loop, PR comment
survival. Expected: PR eval wall 35.5 -> ~13 min, per-PR paid spend ~halved.

* fix: provider-runner timeouts kill the whole process GROUP; codex/gemini inherit the orphan-drain hardening

All three provider runners (claude/codex/gemini) killed only the direct
child on timeout: tool subprocesses the CLI spawned survived as orphans
holding our pipes open and burning shared API rate (observed: a 600s
timeout stretching past 1400s; a stalled run once burned a core for 15
hours). gstack-detach's watchdog had the same shape one level up — killpg
SIGTERM, 5s grace, then a direct-child proc.kill() that orphaned
grandchildren.

Fix: spawn provider children via node:child_process with detached (own
process group) and killProcessGroup(SIGKILL) in the timeout handler —
runShardChild's proven pattern, EPERM/ESRCH fallbacks included. The codex
and gemini copies also gain the reader.cancel() + stderr Promise.race
hardening only the claude copy had (they still carried the blocked-drain
hang it fixed). gstack-detach's watchdog now group-SIGKILLs after the
grace.

Regression net: test/session-runner-groupkill.test.ts drives the REAL
runSkillTest against a fake claude shim (PATH override) that spawns a
grandchild and wedges — the run must classify timeout within budget and
leave neither shim nor grandchild alive — plus source pins on all three
runners (detached + killProcessGroup, no bare timeout kill, no Bun.spawn
reversion).

* fix: skill-e2e-opus-47 renders SKILL.md fixtures into a mkdtemp — never the live tree

mkEvalRoot ran gen-skill-docs with cwd=ROOT, regenerating every in-repo
SKILL.md mid-run while concurrent paid shards copyFileSync those same files
in their beforeAll (EVALS_JOBS>=4 locally, 2 per CI slice) — a sibling
could capture a half-regenerated or opus-rendered SKILL.md, and a timeout
before afterAll stranded the whole tree at the wrong model for every later
shard. A cross-shard race that could flake ANY concurrent paid test.

Render via the --out-dir flag gen-skill-docs grew for exactly this reason
(mirrors the repo layout, which is all the fixture reads), read the skill
heads from the render dir, delete it, and drop the afterAll restore-regen
entirely.

* fix: claude CLI version resolves in the runner parent, never on a test thread

Eng-review finding: getClaudeCliVersion's fallback is a SYNCHRONOUS
spawnSync on the same thread that polls concurrent PTY/session tests — the
judgePtyState blocking class this overhaul kills elsewhere. The paid runner
parent now resolves it once (cached) and stamps GSTACK_CLAUDE_CLI_VERSION
into every shard's env; eval-store short-circuits on the env var, and the
fallback spawn's budget tightens 10s -> 3s (bounded one-time stall, records
'unknown' on a slow CLI).

* test: wire skippedTests end-to-end through runPaidShard

The census unit tests hand-built outcomes and the classifier tests parsed
strings; nothing proved a real child's ' N skip' recap flows into
outcome.skippedTests and the formatSummary label. A commandFor fake now
prints the recap shape and the test asserts the parsed counts, the
all-skipped predicate, and the 'verified nothing' label.

* fix: make the setup composites rerun-safe (codex diff-review hardenings)

restore-deps: 'cp -r SRC node_modules' with an existing node_modules NESTS
the copy and leaves stale deps active — rm first. register-gstack-skills:
'ln -snf' hard-errors under set -eu when a REAL directory occupies the
gstack slot — clear a non-symlink leftover first. CI workspaces are fresh
today; a reusable composite must survive dirty reruns.

* fix: sweep — every sync spawn in the test trees carries a timeout (436 sites, 157 files)

spawnSync/execSync/Bun.spawnSync BLOCK the main thread, so bun's in-process
per-test timeout can never fire while one waits — a hung child (stdin read,
network probe, dead daemon) wedges the whole shard until the runner's
external wall-clock SIGKILL. This exact class reached main: free-tests run
33262077256, test/gstack-memory-ingest.test.ts (normally 2.3s) held shard 2
at the 360s wall while its five siblings finished in ~65s.

Mechanical sweep in two waves (12 + 4 fan-out agents, every edit verified
against its call site): default timeout: 30_000 (matches the free runner's
per-test budget), 120_000 for genuinely slow ops (installs, builds,
playwright, provider CLIs), helper wrappers fixed ONCE where call sites
route through them. Sites that only LOOK like calls (string fixtures, grep
needles, comments) were skipped with reasons — the enforcement commit that
follows marks them exempt.

* test: sync-spawn timeout tripwire — the wedge class stays extinct

Free scanner over all test trees (test/, browse/test/, design/test/,
make-pdf/test/, ios-qa, browser-skills): every spawnSync/execSync/
Bun.spawnSync call site must carry a timeout within a 30-line options
window, or an explicit '// tripwire-exempt: <reason>' marker. Comment
lines are skipped; exemptions are counted and ratcheted shrink-only
(ceiling 6 = the 6 string-fixture/grep-needle sites where the pattern is
CONTENT, not a call — marked in this commit). A scan-sanity test pins that
the scanner still sees >100 real call sites so it can never rot to a
vacuous green. Companion to the 436-site sweep in the previous commit.

* feat: paid-lane flake telemetry — record-level attempts, flaky_retries, report surfacing

bun --retry leaves a retried pass INVISIBLE in its output: a fail-then-pass
prints the error detail but no (fail) result line and recaps as a clean
pass (probed live on 1.3.10). So attempts are recorded where they cannot
lie: EvalCollector.addTest stamps a 1-based attempt on same-name re-records
(a retried test runs its body again and re-records), finalized runs carry
flaky_retries, printSummary warns loudly, and the fail-closed slices report
lists every passed-only-on-retry test — recorded and ranked, never blocking
and never silent. Cross-model confirmed (codex reached the same don't-parse
-the-stream conclusion independently).

* feat: free-lane flake ledger — retry ON in CI, flaky-passes recorded and uploaded

The runner's attribution-gated flaky-retry pass (cap 5, truncation veto)
was OFF in the required lane and its FLAKY-PASS evidence was console-only —
so a single timing flake red the merge gate while repeat offenders stayed
unenumerable. free-tests.yml now sets GSTACK_FREE_RETRY_FLAKY=1 and points
GSTACK_FLAKE_LEDGER at runner.temp; every flaky-pass appends a JSONL entry
(SINGLE writer: the parent runner — no concurrent-append hazard by
construction; fail-open with a loud warning so a broken ledger can never
red the lane) and the artifact uploads UNCONDITIONALLY — a flaky-pass run
is green, which is exactly when the evidence matters. Wiring pinned by
free-tests-workflow-wiring; ledger behavior unit-tested incl. the fail-open
path. Matches 2026 industry practice (retry for data, quarantine out of
merge-blocking but never out of logging) with the repo's own receipts.

* feat: eval:flake-rank — the flake-telemetry dial

Aggregates per-test series across every finalized eval-store run (shard
dirs included) plus the free flake ledger: runs, fails, RETRIED PASSES
(the flake signature), avg duration — ranked retries-first. This is the
readable dial behind two policies: a flaky pass never blocks a merge but
is always ranked here, and the WS16 required-check promotion needs weeks
of clean flake-rank, not vibes. --json for machines, --dir for downloaded
CI artifacts.

* feat: two-phase session timeout — silent APIs die at the startup grace, named

The single spawn-armed timer charged API queue latency to the work budget:
the recurring '0 turns / $0.00 / x3 attempts' failure with four budget-bump
receipts (180->300s, 240->360s, 300->420s, 90->300s). Split: startup phase
(no NDJSON byte yet) kills EARLY at min(grace, timeout) with the distinct
exitReason 'timeout_startup' — an availability verdict, not transcript
archaeology — and the work phase arms on the first byte for the REMAINING
budget, so total wall never exceeds the timeout (tier envelopes are
margin-free: tests pass timeout: CAPTURE_MS and bun-budget the same tier).
Local grace 90s (observed queue latency 60-90s), CI floor 300s (TODOS-filed;
shared runners queue harder), both pinned by the new grace tests with fake
-claude shims covering the late-first-byte and silent-API paths.

* fix: census integrity — 17 phantom selection keys deleted, reverse invariant added, gitignored dep patterns replaced, local map forks derived

The merge-blocking gate census counted tests that could not run. Deleted
(critic-verified against both quoted-occurrence and dep-registration
liveness): 7 *-prosons-format keys with no declaring test, ship-plan-
completion/-verification, review-plan-completion, design-shotgun-path/
session/full, autoplan-core (dead ~10 months), e2e-harness-audit (its
namesake is a FREE-suite file), plus 2 dead LLM-judge keys and 2 free-file
keys (budget-regression-pty, global-discover) misplaced in the PAID maps.
Census: 191 -> 174 keys, gate 86 -> 78 honest.

The new reverse invariant in touchfiles.test.ts makes the class structurally
impossible: every key must be quoted in a living paid test file OR
registered to an existing paid test file via its dep list (the constructed-
name binding the 2026-08 self-registration sweep established) — zero
exceptions needed today, with a live-file check on any future exception.

Also: '.agents/skills/**' dep patterns replaced with the generator
(scripts/gen-skill-docs.ts) — .agents/ is gitignored, so those patterns
could NEVER match a git diff and review-template edits silently stopped
selecting codex/gemini tests; the codex/gemini local touchfile maps are now
DERIVED from the canonical map (loud throw if a key vanishes) instead of
hand-forked copies that had already drifted. ios-qa-e2e demoted gate ->
periodic: its gate declaration was never executable in CI (hardware
exclusion only applies at tier=periodic), so every Linux PR planned a
hollow shard.

* fix: routing journeys lose their answer key and end at the routing decision

The journey tests exist to catch skill-DESCRIPTION regressions (touchfiles:
*/SKILL.md.tmpl), but the fixture CLAUDE.md shipped an explicit
prompt->skill lookup table — with the answer key in context, a badly
regressed frontmatter description still routed correctly, so the tests
could not fail on the exact class they select for. The fixture now carries
only the generic invoke-skills nudge; the frontmatter carries the routing
load. Also capped all 10 journeys at maxTurns 2 / tools [Skill, Read]:
only the FIRST Skill call is asserted, so 5 turns of Read/Bash/Glob/Grep
was pure spend — roughly halves each journey's cost.

* fix: retire decided A/B experiments; vendor the pre-cut fixture; ban raw-SHA fixtures

Three one-shot decision experiments kept re-running weekly as N=1
stochastic comparisons — flaky by construction with near-zero remaining
information: skill-e2e-auq-repetition-cut-ab (its own header: gate "passed
pre-landing, approved 2026-08-25"), skill-e2e-preamble-script-ab ("demoted
post-Phase-3"), and opus-47's fanout arm-vs-arm (parA >= parB across two
SINGLE stochastic runs — a coin flip). Deleted, with their selection keys;
the SDK overlay-harness stays as the maintained instrument for the next
experiment, and opus-47 keeps its routing-precision cases.

verboseSkill() now reads the VENDORED test/fixtures/auq-pre-cut-...-SKILL.md
instead of `git show ab66193e^:...` — a branch-local ref that dies on
branch prune and already failed on shallow clones. New free tripwire
(test/git-ref-fixture-tripwire.test.ts) bans the raw-SHA fixture class
outright: quoted SHA:path rev-specs and gitRef-style hex defaults in the
test trees fail the suite with the vendor-instead instruction.

* fix: demote plan-ceo-review-expansion-energy to periodic

Opus generator + a subjective 2-axis >=4/5 LLM-judge threshold sat in the
MERGE-BLOCKING gate — the exact class its sibling posture tests were
demoted for, with a receipt (a +21-line preamble change once flipped the
score). CLAUDE.md's own tiering rule: Opus model test -> periodic. The
weekly lane keeps the regression signal; merges stop paying a judge-
temperament tax.

* fix: paid shards get per-shard TMPDIR + CHROMIUM_PROFILE isolation and a kill-path cleanup backstop

The free runner treats this isolation as MANDATORY (two concurrent shards
on one Chromium profile kill each other's browser; shared tmp
cross-contaminates) — the paid lane had none of it. Doubly load-bearing
here: a shard that hits its 30-min wall is group-SIGKILLed, so per-test
afterAll cleanup never runs; the rmSync backstop is the only thing keeping
wedged runs from accumulating full git-repo workspaces in the shared
tmpdir forever. This is the DAG prerequisite for raising EVALS_JOBS (next
commit) — more concurrency on shared state amplifies exactly the
shared-tree race class opus-47 exhibited.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: paid-runner defaults 4x4 -> 8x2 — halve the local gate worst case

39 of 75 skill-e2e files hold exactly ONE test, so within-shard
concurrency was dead weight for most shards: 4 jobs x 4 concurrency
yielded only ~4-6 real in-flight sessions and a 13-wave local gate worst
case (~6.5h). 8 jobs x 2 gives ~10-13 in-flight — under the
documented-safe ~15 — and ~7 waves (~3.3h worst case). CI lanes keep
their explicit EVALS_JOBS env (2 per slice; 4 for gate-census); this
changes local defaults. Rollback trigger: sustained 429 storms in the WS1
telemetry across 2 PR cycles. test/eval-detach-timeout-floor.test.ts
recomputed green (the raise LOWERS the worst-case floor).

* fix: SHA-pin every action in the secrets-bearing eval lanes

evals.yml and evals-periodic.yml execute PR-authored code with three
provider API keys in env, yet rode mutable action tags (@v7/@v8/@v2/@v4)
— while quality-gate.yml, osv-scanner.yml, and dependency-review.yml
already model the SHA-pin pattern. All 30 uses sites across both lanes now
pin the exact commit (tag noted in a trailing comment); dependabot's
github-actions ecosystem keeps them fresh via PRs instead of silent tag
moves. Pulled forward from the plan's endgame on the CEO-review + outside-
voice agreement: supply-chain pins on secret lanes go first, not last.

* fix: sweep wave 3 — the execFileSync family gets timeouts (90 sites, 17 files)

The tripwire's regex covered spawnSync/execSync/Bun.spawnSync but not
execFileSync — an entire blocking sync-spawn API family that could
reintroduce the shard-wedge class undetected (ship review army). Same
mechanical recipe as waves 1-2: timeout: 30_000 default, 120_000 for slow
ops, shared wrappers fixed once, string-needle sites skipped with reasons.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: review-army + adversarial test hardening

- Tripwire scans execFileSync too (ceiling 8: two more grep-needle string
  exemptions); merge-introduced timeout-less spawnSync in
  question-preference-hook fixed — the tripwire caught a site that landed
  on main AFTER the sweep, on its first day.
- gstack-detach gains TWO watchdog kill regression tests: TERM-immune
  grandchild (the killpg-after-grace escalation) and the leader-dies
  variant (the pgid-at-spawn fix — the case the first test cannot see).
- eval-flake-rank gets its unit suite (final-attempt accounting, artifact
  exclusion, shard recursion, recency bound).
- Groupkill/startup-grace shim markers are per-run unique (pid-suffixed
  sleep durations): sibling Conductor worktrees run free suites with no
  machine lock, and fixed markers let one run pgrep/pkill the other's
  shims — a cross-run flake inside the anti-flake tests.
- flake-ledger test pins the project-scoped local default; stale empty
  section headers in touchfiles-data deleted (they invited entries under
  deliberately retired categories).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: adversarial-review runtime fixes across the telemetry + kill paths

- session-runner: exit-labeling keys off 'exit', not 'close' — an orphan
  holding the pipes could relabel a REAL exit (auth failure) as
  'timeout_startup' availability noise; the kill path still always
  group-kills and cancels the reader (labeling and unblocking are separate
  concerns). Work phase arms on a flag, not firstResponseMs===0 (a same-ms
  first byte left the startup timer live all run). The CI startup grace is
  now a real FLOOR (Math.max), matching its name and pinning test.
- gstack-detach: pgid captured AT SPAWN (== child pid under
  start_new_session) — resolving it after the grace raised ESRCH once the
  leader died on SIGTERM, orphaning TERM-immune grandchildren forever.
- test-free-shards: ledger entries carry branch + git_sha (rev-parse split:
  '--abbrev-ref HEAD HEAD' printed the branch twice and recorded it as the
  sha); local ledger default is per-PROJECT, not the machine-global tmpdir.
- eval-flake-rank: per-LINE ledger parse (one torn JSONL line vanished the
  whole series), 60-day recency bound (transcript-bearing files are MBs),
  shared isFinalizedEvalResultFile predicate (the artifact-taxonomy rule
  lived in three places); eval-store exports the predicate and finalize
  stops computing flakyRetries twice; paid-shards cleanup uses async rm
  (a SIGKILLed shard's git-workspace teardown blocked every sibling's
  stream classification on the parent event loop).

* fix: CI trust-boundary + fail-closed repairs (adversarial findings)

- Token/exec separation restored: slices-report (runs PR-authored code:
  bun install + the reconcile runner) drops to contents:read; the PR
  comment moves to a NEW slices-comment job holding the write token with
  ZERO repo code — no checkout, no bun, only downloaded artifacts + jq/gh.
  $GITHUB_ENV/BASH_ENV persistence is job-scoped, so the split is the
  boundary. The matrix-era report job had this property; the consolidation
  had regressed it. Pinned by the wiring test.
- Reconcile exit captured via PIPESTATUS[0] in BOTH lanes: GitHub's default
  run-step shell has no pipefail, so `$?` after `| tee` was tee's exit —
  the fail-closed gate was silently fail-open. Wiring test pins it.
- PR comment: final-attempt accounting restored the dropped COST
  accumulation (the dial read $0 forever), flaky passes render as the
  warning they are (never as failures), and a malformed tests[] artifact
  skips that file instead of aborting the whole comment under bash -e.
- Remaining mutable action tags pinned (free-tests upload-artifact,
  ci-image checkout/docker trio — the image publisher holds packages:write
  and feeds the secret-bearing lanes). restore-deps fallback installs
  --frozen-lockfile; register-gstack-skills validates skill names before
  its rm -rf.

* fix: slices-comment creates the PR comment via REST — the write-token job has no git context

The token/exec split gives slices-comment NO checkout by design, and gh's
pr-comment subcommand resolves the repo FROM git — it died with 'not a git
repository' on PR #2746's first run (the update-existing PATCH path was
already explicit-repo REST and worked). Create now posts through
gh api repos/.../issues/N/comments, and the wiring test pins that no
git-context-requiring comment call can creep back into the job.

* fix: startup-grace probes clear CI for local semantics; new probe pins the floor clamp

The two shim probes pass explicit 2s/4s graces, but in CI the runner clamps
any explicit grace up to the 300s floor (deliberate adversarial-review fix),
so 'silent API killed at the grace' died at the 30s work cap instead of 2s —
a deterministic red on every CI run, green locally. The probes now pin LOCAL
semantics with CI cleared (same save/restore pattern as their PATH shim),
and a fourth probe pins the clamp itself: CI=1 + 2s grace + 6s timeout must
kill at the 6s cap, still in the startup phase — proof an explicit low grace
cannot bypass the floor.

* fix(gbrain): stop forcing GBRAIN_PREPARE on transaction-mode poolers (#1965)

buildGbrainEnv auto-set GBRAIN_PREPARE=true whenever DATABASE_URL targeted
port 6543, and the /sync-gbrain capability check exported it for the rest
of the skill run. Both had the semantics inverted: gbrain auto-disables
prepared statements on transaction-mode poolers because they break every
write there ("prepared statement does not exist"); GBRAIN_PREPARE=true is
gbrain's documented override for SESSION-mode poolers on 6543, not a
requirement for transaction mode. The #1435 search symptom the auto-set
worked around was fixed gbrain-side.

Remove both force-sets. A caller-set GBRAIN_PREPARE (either value) still
passes through untouched, preserving the session-mode-on-6543 escape hatch.
isTransactionModePooler stays exported.

* fix(gbrain): classify probe timeout as its own status; sync proceeds instead of skipping (#1964)

The 5s engine probe misclassified healthy-but-slow engines (cold Supabase
pooler connections measured at 6.9-10.7s) as broken-config, so /sync-gbrain
silently skipped code+memory and told the user their config was malformed.

- New "timeout" status: probe killed at the deadline with no recognized
  stderr pattern. Default deadline is now 15s, overridable via
  GSTACK_GBRAIN_PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS (tests set 300ms against a fake that
  sleeps 2s).
- Sync stages PROCEED on timeout with a stderr warning naming the env knob;
  a genuinely-dead engine surfaces its real error at the first operation
  instead of a false config diagnosis.
- Consistency everywhere "ok" gated behavior: gstack-gbrain-detect --is-ok
  exits 0 on timeout, and gen-skill-docs' detection gate accepts it, so a
  slow engine no longer silently suppresses brain-aware features.
- Status cache: key now includes the effective probe timeout (raising it
  invalidates a cached timeout) and GBRAIN_HOME; config detection honors
  GBRAIN_HOME so relocated-home users stop being misclassified as
  missing-config.

* fix(bins): cygpath-normalize SCRIPT_DIR for bun imports; surface learnings-log errors (#1950)

Under Windows git-bash, pwd yields a POSIX path (/c/Users/...) that Bun on
Windows cannot resolve as an ES module specifier. gstack-learnings-log
interpolates SCRIPT_DIR into a bun -e import, so every invocation died with
"Cannot find module" — and 2>/dev/null swallowed the error, silently
dropping every AI-logged learning for Windows users.

- 3-line cygpath -m guard in gstack-learnings-log and gstack-question-log
  (which gains the same import shape in the next commit). Matches the
  duplicated IS_WINDOWS convention in setup; no shared shell lib exists.
- learnings-log adopts question-log's set +e / TMPERR capture pattern
  wholesale: validation errors now print to stderr. The old
  `if [ $? -ne 0 ]` check was dead code under set -euo pipefail — the
  script exited at the failing assignment before reaching it.
- New test/bin-windows-bun-import-paths.test.ts: static invariant (any
  bash bin interpolating $SCRIPT_DIR into a bun -e import must carry the
  guard) + behavioral end-to-end run invoked via `bash <bin>` — added to
  the windows-free-tests workflow list so the conversion is proven on the
  only platform where the bug exists.

* fix(question-log): dedupe INJECTION_PATTERNS via lib/jsonl-store (#1934)

bin/gstack-question-log carried a local copy of the injection-pattern list,
so pattern fixes to lib/jsonl-store.ts never propagated — including the
/override[:\s]/i false-positive fix arriving via community PR #1940.
Import the shared hasInjection instead (enabled by the previous commit's
cygpath guard). question-log also gets the lib's stricter superset
(human:, disregard, from-now-on, approve-all patterns).

Tests pin the contract in a #1940-order-independent way: an "Override:
ignore all previous instructions" header is rejected, "prose overrides the
deterministic table" is accepted, and a static invariant keeps local
INJECTION_PATTERNS duplicates out of the bin.

* fix(security): community-pulse + both dashboards never report fake zeros (#1947)

The security-signaling surface failed open at three layers — every failure
mode read as a reassuring "0 attacks" / "0 installs":

- community-pulse edge function: supabase-js returns {data,error} without
  throwing, and all five queries discarded `error` — a DB outage produced
  real-looking zeros via the SUCCESS path, and the catch (also returning
  zeros with HTTP 200) was unreachable for query failures. Every query now
  destructures and throws; the catch serves the stale cache (marked
  "stale": true) when one exists, else 503 {"error":"pulse_unavailable"}.
  Success responses carry "status":"ok" so clients can distinguish
  authoritative data from legacy backends. NOTE: the edge function deploys
  out-of-band (supabase functions deploy community-pulse).
- gstack-security-dashboard: captures the HTTP status; non-200 / network
  failure / error body / missing section → "unknown — backend error";
  jq missing → "unknown — install jq" (the lossy grep fallback broke on
  nested arrays and under-reported attacks as zero — removed); a 200
  without the new marker shows figures with an "unverified (legacy
  backend)" note. Also fixes a latent display bug: the TOTAL grep matched
  the digit 7 inside "attacks_last_7_days" and misreported every count.
- gstack-community-dashboard: same class — curl || echo "{}" plus
  grep || echo "0" printed "Weekly active installs: 0" on any failure.
  Now "unknown — backend error (HTTP N)".

test/security-dashboard-fallback.test.ts pins the matrix (200+marker,
200-legacy, 503, network failure) x (jq present, jq absent) for both bins:
"unknown" states never render as 0.

* fix(telemetry): redact error_message spans before they leave the machine (#1947)

error_message was uploaded with only quote/newline escaping — stack traces
and failed-API errors can embed credentials, private paths, and hostnames,
and the sync path strips only _repo_slug/_branch.

New lib/redact-engine.ts export redactFindingSpans(): replaces EVERY
finding's span with <REDACTED-{id}> regardless of tier (applyRedactions is
the interactive PII-only path and exits nonzero on credential findings, so
it can't serve machine egress). Returns null when a span can't be located —
callers drop the whole payload rather than risk a leak.

gstack-telemetry-log pipes error_message through it at LOG time, so the
local JSONL at rest is clean too; surrounding text survives for crash
triage. FAIL CLOSED: bun missing, engine error, or non-JSON-string output
all null the field. Tests pin: embedded ghp_ token → <REDACTED-github.pat>
with context intact; redactor unavailable → null; raw bytes on disk never
contain the token.

* fix(redact): prepush guard fails closed on git failure; /ship owns hook install (#1946)

Two gaps closed:

1. Fail closed. The git() helper returned "" on ANY non-zero exit or
   maxBuffer overflow (status null), addedLinesFor produced an empty
   string, and the push sailed through unscanned — fail-open on exactly
   the oversized-diff case where a large secret-bearing blob is most
   likely. The diff call now uses a strict variant that throws; main
   blocks with a clear message naming the GSTACK_REDACT_PREPUSH=skip
   escape valve. Probe calls (symbolic-ref, rev-parse, merge-base) keep
   the permissive helper — their failures are normal control flow.

2. Install path. The hook was installed by nothing ("opt-in, installed by
   nothing" was the issue's words). ./setup runs in the gstack checkout —
   the wrong repo for a per-project hook — so it gets a one-line hint
   only. /ship owns per-repo install: config redact_prepush_hook=true +
   hook missing → silent install (consent already given); config unset +
   no ~/.gstack/.redact-prepush-prompted marker → one-time machine-wide
   AskUserQuestion offer, answer persisted. ship/SKILL.md regenerated in
   this same commit (check-freshness bisect discipline).

Tests: unscannable diff (bogus SHAs) → exit 1 + valve named; empty-but-
successful diff → exit 0; static asserts pin setup as hint-only and the
ship template as the installer surface.

* feat(redact): six new credential patterns — GitLab, HuggingFace, npm, DigitalOcean, Bearer, GCP SA (#1946)

Coverage gaps from the #1946 security review, including token types for
tooling gstack itself drives (glab):

HIGH (block): gitlab.token (glpat-/glptt-/gldt-), huggingface.token (hf_),
npm.token (npm_), digitalocean.token (dop_v1_), gcp.service_account (the
JSON-escaped "private_key" form that dodges pem.private_key's literal-block
match when minified, confirmed by "private_key_id" proximity).

MEDIUM (warn): auth.bearer — the most FP-prone shape in the set (docs are
full of "Authorization: Bearer <token>"), so it requires header-context
proximity and the same entropy>=3.0 + placeholder validator recipe as
env.kv. "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" never fires; calibration over coverage,
per the cries-wolf principle.

All shapes are linear-time; test/redact-pattern-lint.test.ts covers them
automatically. Engine tests add positive + placeholder-negative cases per
pattern.

* fix: pre-landing review fixes

Review army findings (1 critical, auto-fixed with regression tests):

- CRITICAL (security specialist, verified live): redactFindingSpans spliced
  only the regex capture span, and pem.private_key / gcp.service_account
  capture just the BEGIN-header — the key body survived "redaction" and
  shipped via telemetry. Marker-only patterns now drop the whole payload
  (null, fail closed). Overlapping spans (Bearer+JWT on the same bytes) are
  coalesced before splicing so stale offsets can't leave partial secret
  bytes behind.
- gitStrict: drop the dead `|| r.status === null` disjunct (null !== 0
  already covers it); add the signal-kill/null-status regression test the
  docstring promised.
- security-dashboard human mode flags stale snapshots ("figures may be out
  of date") instead of presenting frozen counts as current.
- community-dashboard marker check uses jq when available — the grep-only
  variant misclassified whitespaced/reserialized bodies as legacy.
- telemetry fail-closed test now shadows bun with a failing stub
  (deterministic on any host layout); stale "five status cases" describe
  title renamed.

* fix: adversarial review fixes (Claude + Codex cross-model passes)

Both adversarial passes ran against the wave; every FIXABLE finding landed
with a regression test:

- probeTimeoutMs clamps to >=1ms: a fractional override floored to 0, and
  execFileSync treats timeout:0 as NO timeout — the probe that exists to
  bound hangs could hang forever (found by both models independently).
- /ship silent hook install now requires the hooks dir to live inside
  .git: with core.hooksPath (husky's COMMITTED .husky/), the chaining
  installer would have renamed the team's committed pre-push and written a
  machine-local wrapper into the working tree (found by both models).
- gstack-config gbrain-refresh accepts the "timeout" status — the last
  consumer still gating on literal "ok" (Codex); gstack-gbrain-detect's
  config-derived fields honor GBRAIN_HOME so the detection JSON can't
  report status ok alongside config_exists false (Codex).
- prepush: a remote sha absent locally (shallow clone / stale fetch) falls
  back to the merge-base/empty-tree range — scans MORE, never blocks a
  legitimate push into training users toward --no-verify.
- dashboards: curl's own 000 no longer doubles to "HTTP 000000"; the
  community dashboard flags stale snapshots like the security one; array
  sections parse via jq (the sed/grep loops truncated at the first ']');
  the no-jq marker grep tolerates whitespace.
- telemetry: multi-line redactor output nulls the field instead of
  corrupting the JSONL record; setup's hint fires only when the config key
  is genuinely unset (an explicit false is a recorded decline); the /ship
  prompt marker honors GSTACK_HOME.

Kept as designed (cross-model tension noted): Bearer stays MEDIUM in the
prepush gate — a HIGH Bearer would block every docs example; the entropy
validator can't eliminate that FP class, and MEDIUM warns visibly.

* test: fix operational-learning E2E fixture — copy lib/jsonl-store.ts

Pre-existing breakage, proven on main: gstack-learnings-log has imported
lib/jsonl-store.ts (shared injection patterns) since v1.57.5.0 / #1910, but
the fixture copies only the bin scripts — the bin exits 1 before writing
anything, on main silently (stderr swallowed) and on this branch loudly
(the #1950 error-surfacing made the four-day-old failure visible). A real
install always ships bin/ and lib/ together; the fixture now does too.
Verified: the fixture-shaped invocation writes the learning (exit 0) with
lib present, exits 1 on both main and this branch without it.

* fix(ios-qa): isolate E2E tests under --concurrent (3 real races)

The ios-qa E2E file failed intermittently under `bun test --concurrent`
(the eval harness default). Three distinct shared-state races, all fixed:

1. Shared pidfile: a module-level `workDir` reassigned in beforeEach was
   clobbered by parallel tests, so concurrent daemons collided on the same
   pidfile and the loser returned `already_running`. Each test now gets its
   own dir via makeWorkDir().
2. process.env path globals: tests set GSTACK_IOS_AUDIT_PATH /
   _ATTEMPTS_PATH / _ALLOWLIST_PATH on the shared process env; concurrent
   tests stomped each other's audit/attempts destinations. Threaded
   auditPath/attemptsPath/allowlistPath through DaemonOptions (and
   mintForCaller) as explicit args — env is no longer load-bearing.
3. afterEach cleanup race: the per-test cleanup drained a shared dir array,
   so the first test to finish deleted still-running tests' workDirs
   mid-assertion. Moved to afterAll (cleans once, after all settle).

Verified: 5/5 clean full-suite runs at --max-concurrency 15 (was
intermittent); daemon unit suite 91/91; daemon source compiles. The paths
default to the env-derived locations when options are omitted, so the
production CLI path is unchanged.

* test(pty): pin spawned claude to EVALS model chain (default claude-sonnet-4-6)

launchClaudePty spawned the interactive `claude` TUI with no --model flag, so
the child inherited the operator's ~/.claude/settings.json model. On a
slow-thinking model that meant 5+ min of extended thinking on empty plan-mode
context, timing out the plan-mode smoke tests regardless of contention. Pin the
model via opts.model ?? EVALS_MODEL ?? 'claude-sonnet-4-6' — byte-identical to
session-runner.ts:144, so PTY and `claude -p` evals always agree.

Pushed before extraArgs (last flag wins, so a per-test --model still overrides).
Placement leaves the spawn region byte-stable for a clean merge with the
in-flight hermetic-env branch. Plumbed model through the three plan-skill
wrappers. Static-grep tripwires guard the pin, its fallback chain, the
before-extraArgs ordering, and all three wrapper forwards.

* test(pty): detect markdown bold-bullet prose AUQs (fixes office-hours smoke)

office-hours auto-mode renders its mode question as `- **Building a startup**`
markdown bullets (office-hours/SKILL.md.tmpl:102) with no letter/number marker.
isProseAUQVisible only matched `A)`-style lettered or `1.`-style numbered
options, so the question went undetected: the model surfaced it at ~2m19s
(well under the 300s budget) but the harness kept scoring the run "working"
off the spinner glyphs and timed out — a false timeout on a question that was
already on screen.

Add Pattern 3: when an interrogative line ('?') is present AND 3+ bold-bullet
markers (`- **`) appear in the 4KB tail, classify as a prose AUQ. Bold is the
discriminator vs incidental prose bullets; the line anchor is dropped (stripAnsi
can collapse option lines) and the existing `❯ 1.` cursor gate still defers to a
live native list. Wires through the existing classifyVisible 'asked' path and the
timeout high-water-mark, so office-hours now classifies 'asked' instead of
'timeout'. Five unit cases: the office-hours render passes; no-'?', <3-bullet,
plain-bullet, and native-cursor cases stay false.

* test(pty): detect stripAnsi-collapsed prose AUQs + judge spinner-precedence

The plan-eng/plan-design plan-mode + finding-floor smokes timed out even when
the skill HAD rendered a complete prose AskUserQuestion and was waiting: the PTY
strips cursor-positioning escapes, collapsing the option newlines/spaces so
"A) ..." arrives as "A(recommended)" / "-B:" and "Reply with A, B, or C" as
"ReplywithA,B,orC". Every line-anchored detector (Patterns 1-3) returns false on
those bytes, so proseAUQEverObserved never latched and the run timed out on a
question that was already on screen.

Add Pattern 4/5: a two-signal collapsed-form detector — a reply/recommendation
marker (space-insensitive "reply with [A-D]", "Recommendation:", or
"(recommended)") AND 2+ distinct A-D letters each punctuated by ) : or (. The
conjunction is what separates a real AUQ from incidental report prose; verified
true on the verbatim failing-run buffers where Patterns 1-3 return false.

Also fix the Haiku judge spinner bias: of 614 verdicts, 569 were 'working' and
95 of those noted a question was visible — Claude Code keeps the spinner
animating at an idle prose decision, so the judge coin-flipped. Add a precedence
override: when an option list AND a Recommendation/Reply instruction are both
visible, classify WAITING even with spinner glyphs. Kept the strict dual-signal
gate (never option-list-alone) so auto-decide-preserved doesn't flip.

5 unit tests pin the two-signal contract (2 true on real collapsed bytes, 3
false guards). 90 -> 95 pass.

* feat(plan-review): ask-first scope gate for plan-eng + plan-design review

On an empty/cold invocation, plan-eng-review and plan-design-review would dive
straight into repo exploration (plan-eng) or a 7-pass mockup+audit (plan-design)
and only ask the user much later, if at all. plan-ceo-review already asks first
via an unconditional Step-0 gate and behaves well; these two did not.

Add a hard-STOP scope gate as the FIRST operational instruction in each skill
(above the design-doc check / pre-review audit / mockup defaults it explicitly
overrides): the first tool call must be AskUserQuestion confirming the review
target, before any git/Read/Grep/Glob/Bash or mockup generation. Under
--disallowedTools the options render as plain column-0 lettered prose with a
Recommendation + "Reply with A, B, or C" line so the answer is detectable.

This is correct cold-start UX (confirm what to review before grinding a full
review on nothing) and it is the product half of the plan-mode smoke fix; the
harness collapsed-form detector is the deterministic half that catches the ask
however it renders. Templates + regenerated SKILL.md (default variant).

* test(tiers): reclassify stochastic plan-eng/plan-design ask-first smokes as periodic

plan-eng-review and plan-design-review run a long explore/audit before their
first AskUserQuestion, so whether the plan-mode + finding-floor smokes reach a
terminal outcome within the 300s/600s budget depends on stochastic ask-first
compliance (measured ~50-67%/run even with the hardened gate). Per the
"non-deterministic -> periodic" tiering rule, move the four affected smokes
(plan-eng/plan-design review-plan-mode + finding-floor) to periodic.

The deterministic harness fix (collapsed-form detector + judge precedence) and
the ask-first gate lift these from always-failing to mostly-passing and are the
real product+harness improvements; periodic monitoring tracks the rate weekly
without blocking PRs on an LLM coin-flip. plan-ceo/plan-devex ask-first reliably
and stay gate-tier.

* ci(evals): gate the deterministic PTY plan-mode smokes in CI

The real-PTY plan-mode smokes never ran in CI — the gate was local-only. Add an
e2e-pty-plan-smoke matrix suite running the two deterministically-reliable ones
(office-hours-auto-mode, plan-mode-no-op) so a regression there blocks PRs. The
stochastic plan-eng/plan-design ask-first smokes stay periodic (touchfiles
E2E_TIERS) and are not CI-gated.

A fresh CI container has no ~/.claude.json, so the spawned interactive `claude`
would wedge on the onboarding + API-key-approval dialog. Add a scoped seed step
(hasCompletedOnboarding + key approval, its own ANTHROPIC_API_KEY env) before the
run — mirrors what the hermetic E2E child env seeds. Per-suite timeout override
(35 min) via matrix.suite.timeout so the PTY suite has headroom for --retry 2
without bumping the other 12 suites. Report runner count 12 -> 13.

Validate via workflow_dispatch before relying on the gate (PTY-in-CI is new).

* ci(evals): install gstack skill registry for the PTY smoke suite

The first dry-run of e2e-pty-plan-smoke failed: the spawned interactive `claude`
printed "Unknown command: /plan-ceo-review". .claude/skills is gitignored, so a
fresh CI checkout has no gstack skill registry and the TUI can't resolve
/office-hours or /plan-ceo-review.

Add a Register step (scoped to the suite, after Seed, before Run) that mirrors
setup's --no-prefix user-scoped registry minimally: $HOME/.claude/skills/gstack
-> repo (resolves the preambles' absolute ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/* and
<skill>/sections/* paths) + per-skill SKILL.md/sections symlinks for the two
skills these tests invoke. HOME is /github/home in this container and the runner
adds no HOME/CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR override (no hermetic mode), so $HOME is the right
anchor — the Seed step already proved claude reads it. No ./setup (binary build
+ Chromium + fonts + /dev/tty prompt); SKILL.md + bin/ + sections/ are committed.

Self-validating: fails the step loudly on a dangling symlink or missing
`name:` frontmatter, so a moved target surfaces here instead of as a silent
35-min "Unknown command" timeout.

Garry TanandClaude Opus 4.7 e362b0ae2f v1.37.0.0 feat: split-engine gbrain (remote MCP brain + local PGLite for code) (#1500)
* feat(gbrain): add lib/gbrain-local-status classifier with 5-state engine status + 60s cache

Foundation for split-engine gbrain: shared classifier used by both
bin/gstack-gbrain-detect (preamble probe) and bin/gstack-gbrain-sync.ts
(orchestrator SKIP-when-not-ok). Single source of truth.

Probes via `gbrain sources list --json` and classifies stderr against the
same patterns lib/gbrain-sources.ts:66-67 already uses ("Cannot connect to
database", "config.json"). Returns one of: ok, no-cli, missing-config,
broken-config, broken-db. Defensive default: unrecognized failures
classify as broken-config so the raw stderr can be surfaced upstream.

Cache at ~/.gstack/.gbrain-local-status-cache.json keyed on
{home, path_hash, gbrain_bin_path, gbrain_version, config_mtime, config_size}
with 60s TTL. Cache invalidates on any invariant change. --no-cache option
busts the cache for callers that just mutated state (/setup-gbrain,
/sync-gbrain after init/migration).

* refactor(gbrain): rewrite gstack-gbrain-detect bash→TS + add gbrain_local_status field

Replaces the bash detect helper with a bun shebang script sharing the
gbrain_local_status classifier from lib/gbrain-local-status.ts with the
sync orchestrator. Single source of truth for engine-status classification
between preamble-probe and orchestrator-skip paths.

Filename stays gstack-gbrain-detect (no .ts extension) so existing skill
preamble callers shell out unchanged. Shebang `#!/usr/bin/env -S bun run`
resolves bun at runtime.

Output is key/type backward-compatible with the bash version per plan
codex #5: the 9 pre-existing keys (gbrain_on_path, gbrain_version,
gbrain_config_exists, gbrain_engine, gbrain_doctor_ok, gbrain_mcp_mode,
gstack_brain_sync_mode, gstack_brain_git, gstack_artifacts_remote) stay
identical in name + type + value semantics. One new key added:
gbrain_local_status (5-state string enum).

Updates the existing schema regression at test/gstack-gbrain-detect-mcp-mode.test.ts
to include the new key. Adds test/gbrain-detect-shape.test.ts asserting
the regression contract for future changes.

* feat(gbrain): orchestrator SKIP when local engine not ok + remote-http transcripts via artifacts pipeline

Two changes in the sync orchestrator, both per plan D11/D12:

1. bin/gstack-gbrain-sync.ts: runCodeImport + runMemoryIngest call
   localEngineStatus() (shared classifier from lib/gbrain-local-status.ts).
   When status is not 'ok', return a SKIP stage result with a clear reason
   instead of crashing with "source registration failed: gbrain not
   configured". Brain-sync stage runs regardless — it doesn't depend on
   local engine. dry-run preview path is gated above the check so it
   continues to show would-do steps even when the engine is broken.

2. bin/gstack-memory-ingest.ts: when gbrain MCP is registered as
   remote-http (Path 4), persist staged transcripts to
   ~/.gstack/transcripts/run-<pid>-<ts>/ instead of the ephemeral
   ~/.gstack/.staging-ingest-<pid>-<ts>/ tmp dir, and SKIP the local
   `gbrain import` call entirely. The artifacts pipeline (gstack-brain-sync
   push to git, brain admin pulls and indexes) handles routing to the
   remote brain. Local PGLite (when present via Step 4.5) stays code-only.

State recording still happens — prepared pages get their mtime+sha256
stamped under remote-http mode so the next /sync-gbrain doesn't
re-stage them. Cleanup is skipped intentionally so the persisted dir
survives until gstack-brain-sync moves it.

Adds test/gbrain-sync-skip.test.ts covering 5 SKIP scenarios (broken-db,
broken-config, no-cli, missing-config, ok pass-through). All 25
sync-related unit tests pass.

* feat(gbrain): v1.34.0.0 migration notice + transcripts allowlist for artifacts pipeline

Per plan D5 + D11. Two pieces of the split-engine rollout:

1. gstack-upgrade/migrations/v1.34.0.0.sh — prints a one-time
   discoverability notice for existing Path 4 (remote-http MCP) users
   whose machine has no local engine yet. Tells them about /setup-gbrain
   Step 4.5 (the new local-PGLite opt-in). Silent for everyone else.
   User can suppress permanently via `gstack-config set
   local_code_index_offered true`. Touchfile at
   ~/.gstack/.migrations/v1.34.0.0.done makes it idempotent.

2. bin/gstack-artifacts-init — adds `transcripts/run-*/*.md` and
   `transcripts/run-*/**/*.md` to the managed allowlist so the
   gstack-memory-ingest persistent staging dir (used in remote-http
   mode per D11) gets pushed to the artifacts repo. Brain admin's
   pull job then indexes transcripts into the remote brain.
   Privacy class: behavioral (matches transcript content).

Adds test/gstack-upgrade-migration-v1_34_0_0.test.ts with 5 cases:
state match, no-MCP, local-config-present, opt-out, and idempotency.
All 5 pass.

* feat(gbrain): /setup-gbrain Step 1.5/4.5 + /sync-gbrain Step 1.5 templates

Per plan D4, D10, D11, D12. Wires the skill prose to the new
split-engine flow + classifier introduced in earlier commits.

setup-gbrain/SKILL.md.tmpl:
  - Step 1: detect output description now includes the v1.34.0.0
    gbrain_local_status field (5 values).
  - Step 1.5 (NEW): broken-db / broken-config remediation. AskUserQuestion
    with 4 options — Retry / Switch to PGLite / Switch brain mode / Quit
    (plan D4). Retry is recommended first since broken-db often = transient
    Postgres outage. PGLite is explicitly one-way + destructive (moves
    existing config to ~/.gbrain/config.json.gstack-bak-<ts>); rollback on
    init failure restores the .bak (plan D7).
  - Step 4d → Step 4.5 (NEW): in Path 4, after the verify step, offer
    local PGLite for code search. AskUserQuestion Yes/No (plan D10/D11).
    Yes path runs gstack-gbrain-install + `gbrain init --pglite --json`
    with the same rollback-safe sequence. No path skips Steps 3/4/5/7.5.
  - Step 10 verdict (Path 4): adds "Code search" row reflecting Step 4.5
    choice. Updates "Transcripts" row to describe the new D11 routing
    (artifacts repo → remote brain).

sync-gbrain/SKILL.md.tmpl:
  - Step 1 split-engine prose: corrects the prior misleading claim that
    "memory routes through whatever setup-gbrain configured, including
    remote-MCP" (codex finding #3). Memory stage shells out to local
    `gbrain import` in local-stdio mode; in remote-http mode it persists
    to ~/.gstack/transcripts/ for the artifacts pipeline.
  - Step 1.5 (NEW): local-engine pre-flight. STOP on no-cli, broken-config,
    broken-db. Soft skip (continue with code+memory SKIP) on
    missing-config + remote-http per plan D12. Surfaces actionable user
    remediation message instead of the orchestrator crashing two stages
    with ERR.

Regenerated SKILL.md for all hosts (claude, kiro, opencode, slate,
cursor, openclaw, hermes, gbrain). All 712 skill-validation + gen-skill-docs
tests pass.

* test(gbrain): .bak-rollback contract for Step 1.5 / 4.5 init failure path

Per plan D7 (rollback semantics) and codex #10 (rollback scope). The
/setup-gbrain skill instructs the model to follow a specific shell
sequence when running `gbrain init --pglite` against an existing
config:

  1. mv ~/.gbrain/config.json ~/.gbrain/config.json.gstack-bak-<ts>
  2. gbrain init --pglite --json
  3. on non-zero exit: mv .bak back; surface error

This test verifies that contract using a fake `gbrain` binary that
fails on init. Three cases:

  - FAILURE: gbrain init exits non-zero → broken config restored to
    original path, no leftover .bak.
  - SUCCESS: gbrain init exits 0 → new config in place, .bak survives
    for audit (user reviews + deletes manually).
  - SCOPE: any partial PGLite directory at ~/.gbrain/pglite/ is NOT
    auto-cleaned. We only promise to restore config.json; PGLite
    cleanup is the user's call (codex #10).

If the skill template rewrites this sequence in a future change, this
test should fail until the test's shell is updated too. That's the
point — keep the test and the skill template aligned.

* test(gbrain): periodic E2E for /setup-gbrain Path 4 + Step 4.5 Yes flow

End-to-end coverage of the new opt-in question via runAgentSdkTest.
Stubs the MCP endpoint at /tools/list with a 200 response carrying a
fake gbrain v0.32.3.0 serverInfo, and fakes the gbrain + claude CLIs
so init writes a PGLite config and mcp add succeeds. Asserts the model:

  1. invokes gstack-gbrain-install (Step 4.5 Yes branch)
  2. invokes `gbrain init --pglite --json`
  3. writes a working ~/.gbrain/config.json with engine=pglite
  4. registers the remote MCP via `claude mcp add --transport http`
  5. never leaks the bearer token to CLAUDE.md

Classified as periodic-tier per plan D6 (codex #12 flagged AgentSDK
flakiness; gate-tier coverage of the split-engine behavior lives in the
deterministic unit tests at gbrain-local-status.test.ts and
gbrain-sync-skip.test.ts). Touchfile fires the test when the skill
template, install/verify/init helpers, the local-status classifier, or
the agent-sdk-runner harness changes.

* chore(gbrain): bump migration to v1.35.0.0 after main merge

main shipped v1.34.0.0 (factory-export submodule) + v1.34.1.0 (update-check
hardening) while this branch was in flight. The migration file I named
v1.34.0.0.sh now belongs at v1.35.0.0 — the next minor on top of main,
matching the scale of split-engine work (new lib + orchestrator skip +
template overhaul + transcripts routing).

Renames the migration script and its test file; updates all internal
version references in both files. Behavior unchanged.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* perf(gbrain): memoize gbrain resolution + use --fast doctor in detect

Cuts detect's wall time substantially by sharing fork-exec results
between the helper that walks the JSON output and the localEngineStatus
classifier from lib/gbrain-local-status.ts.

Before: detect made 2x `command -v gbrain` calls (one in detect's
detectGbrain, one in the classifier's resolveGbrainBin) and 2x
`gbrain --version` calls. With memoization keyed on PATH, both
collapse to one fork each (~400ms saved per skill preamble).

Also adds `--fast` to the `gbrain doctor --json` call in detect so a
broken-db config (Garry's repro) doesn't burn a full 5s timeout on the
doctor's DB-connection check. The classifier still probes the DB
directly via `gbrain sources list --json` for engine reachability —
that's `gbrain_local_status`, separate from the coarse
`gbrain_doctor_ok` summary flag.

* test(gbrain): relax E2E assertions to smoke-test contract

Per codex #12 (AgentSDK harness is non-deterministic): the E2E now
asserts the model followed the split-engine path WITHOUT requiring a
specific subcommand sequence. Three assertions:

  1. AskUserQuestion was called (model reached interactive branches)
  2. At least one of {gstack-gbrain-install, `gbrain init --pglite`,
     `claude mcp add`} fired (model followed the skill, not a no-op)
  3. The fake bearer token never leaked to CLAUDE.md (security regression)

Deterministic per-step coverage of the same flow lives in the gate-tier
unit tests (gbrain-local-status, gbrain-sync-skip, init-rollback,
upgrade-migration). The E2E exists to catch the "model can't follow
the skill at all" regression class, not to pin the exact tool sequence.

Test passes in 280s against the live Agent SDK.

* test(version): bump CLI smoke-test timeout to 15s (flaky at 5s under load)

The gstack-next-version integration smoke test spawns a child process
that does git operations + sibling-worktree probing. Wall time hovers
4-5s on M-series Macs; flakes at exactly 5001-5002ms when the test
suite runs under load (bun's parallel scheduling). Bumping per-test
timeout to 15s eliminates the flake without changing test logic.
