* fix: pre-landing review fixes (pass 1) and the review-loop budget wording

Two blocking findings from /ship's own pass 1, both reproduced in the QA smoke before the fix:
gstack-ship-receipt carry hashed the product diff with git patch-id --stable, which strips
whitespace, so a space moved in a reviewed shell line carried as "no product change"; and it
classed package.json and every lockfile as release metadata, so a dependency swap carried too.
The patch-id is now --verbatim, package.json and VERSION are metadata only while the change is a
version stamp (lib/pregate/stamp-only.ts), lockfiles are product unless the policy names them,
the test globs name code extensions, a dirty working tree refuses before anything is compared,
and a receipt carried twice keeps the reviewed head as carry.from.

gstack-review-scope: an unresolvable base is POLICY_SOURCE_UNAVAILABLE instead of a silent
working-tree read; --range-base is validated; git runs with core.quotePath=false; range_base is
null on pass 1; a blocking finding with no path is fix; category "testing" is a test finding
below the floor; defer searches once, files nothing on a failed search and exits 0 unfiled;
summary refuses zero matching passes and the receipt write is chained to it with &&; a finding
the diff causes elsewhere names the changed line in `cause` and classify follows it.

Review-loop budget wording (ideas from tstack's sol-loop and pstack's interrogate, rewritten;
NOTICE.md): the blocker / should / nit glossary and two stop rules in Step 9.4, the checklist
and docs/review-policy.md; a lead-judgment stage in the finding merge both /review and /ship
render. The core read diffs $RANGE_BASE from pass 2 on. Caps and pins re-measured with reasons.

Step 7 coverage audit: four tests added in existing files, the --review-loop case moved to its
own test (the shared test tripped bun's 5 s default).

* fix: pin the renumbered review-army stages and point the wording test at product code

CI at c3e27fc failed three free-tier tests, all this branch's own: the
workflow-required-steps fixture and shared-libs-rendering still pinned the
pre-Lead-judgment stage numbers, and test-of-test-ratchet counted
review-loop-budget-wording.test.ts as test-only code because it read only
generated markdown. The fixture and rendering test now pin stages 1-8, and the
wording test renders both armies through generateReviewArmy and reads the
authored ship template as well as the generated sections.

Pass-2 maintainability notes folded in: docs/troubleshooting.md names the two
new RECEIPT_CARRY_REFUSED causes (dirty tree, unreadable status) and the two new
REVIEW_SCOPE_INPUT causes (non-hex --range-base, summary with no matching
pass); gstack-review-scope's help states that classify reads the base branch's
policy and refuses an unresolvable base unless --policy is passed.

* fix: date a review-log row from its binding start when it has no timestamp

The Step 9.4 template asks the writer to fill `timestamp`; the logger stamps
`review_binding.started_at` but never `timestamp`. `gstack-review-scope
summary` dropped such a row silently, so this PR's own pass 2 was missing from
REVIEW_LOOP (passes=1 for a two-pass loop). A row now dates from `timestamp`,
else from its binding start; a row with neither is still not counted.

* fix: pass-4 review fixes (carry stamp rule, deleted-file locus, scanned defer, diff prefixes, row time)

Five findings at the blocking floor from the Step 11 outside voice (gpt-6.1-sol)
and the native adversarial pass, fixed as a fourth pass approved by GStack
Minder under the three-pass policy:

- carry: a path the policy names under stamp_files, stamp_paths or
  release_outputs is metadata only while its change is a stamp (versionStampOnly
  for a manifest kind, stampOnlyText otherwise), the rule the tree receipt
  applies; a logic change in a stamped source file is product. Every
  metadata-listed path is read at both heads and a non-stamp change drops its
  globs from the product exclusion.
- review-scope: parseHunks keeps a deleted file as a whole changed location, so
  a cause anchored in a removed export is the diff's to fix, not deferred.
- defer: issues are filed through lib/gstack-post's publication scan; a HIGH
  finding in the title or body refuses and a MEDIUM one needs a human, both
  recorded as unfiled with the reason; --repo names the destination.
- classify: both diffs pin --src-prefix=a/ --dst-prefix=b/ --no-textconv, so
  diff.mnemonicPrefix cannot send every finding outside.
- summary: a row dates from review_binding.started_at before the writer-typed
  timestamp, so a date-only value cannot drop a real pass.

Docs: ship-policy.md#receipt-carry, review-policy.md, the Step 9.4 template
and the CHANGELOG gate-integrity note record the rule and the pass.

* test(review-army): assert the Red Team branch the run took in the N+1 case

Under the blocking floor the Performance specialist rates a 12-line N+1
INFORMATIONAL, so the conditional Red Team does not activate; the case
encoded the old severity (N+1 is CRITICAL, a Red Team always follows). It
now asserts the branch the run took: a Red Team that ran must follow the
Performance specialist; no Red Team is correct only when the report's own
count says 0 critical and its Red Team line names that reason. The N+1
detection assertion is unchanged. The free contract test gains the
informational-not-activated and informational-claimed controls and the
budget test's synthetic report carries the count line.

Garry Tanandcapy-ai[bot] 6665e20d56 v1.91.236.0 feat(ship-queue): require a current /ship receipt before READY, train build and train merge (#3438)
* feat(ship-queue): require a current /ship receipt before READY, train build and train merge

Garry, 2026-10-25: use the gstack ship skill before merging PRs. ready printed
SHIP_RECEIPT: none as information and returned ok, so the pool was READY'd without
/ship. Now ready, train build (dry run included) and verify --train refuse with
QUEUE_RECEIPT_MISSING or QUEUE_RECEIPT_STALE from the PR body alone; verify accepts
the receipt written for the pinned head when the current head is its stamp commit.

gstack-ship-receipt result is /ship's terminal step (GSTACK_RESULT: skill=ship,
run dir with the head and receipt), unattended /ship may update an existing PR's
body, and INSTALL_UNVERIFIED with no verdict names the project directory to
install from (GSTA-85).

* test(ship): pin Step 22 in workflow-required-steps and tighten the ship skeleton

Gate edit: test/fixtures/workflow-required-steps.json pins the new
"## Step 22: Terminal line (every run)" heading (strengthens: a later
edit that drops the terminal line turns the required-steps test red).
Steps 14, 16, 18, 20 and 22 prose tightened so the carve-guards raise
shrinks to 81,600 / 1.6740 (measured skeleton 81,535, union 314,027).

* fix: pre-landing review fixes (ready at the stamp commit, screen on a stale merge ref, ship-run.json)

- ready accepts the pin's receipt at a slot's stamp commit (plus the slot-2
  merge of main), as verify --train already did; a real edit stays STALE
- ready --screen refuses QUEUE_SCREEN_STALE_REF when refs/pull/<n>/merge is
  missing or merges an older head; a finished screen that planned 0 cases is
  never followed, and train build seats that slot unscreened (GSTA-95 on #3431)
- gstack-ship-receipt result writes ship-run.json (a /ship record, not a run
  v1 manifest), validates --head, and prints status=incomplete on gh failures
- bindReceipt takes an optional pr and renders one-line SHIP_RECEIPT lines
- tests for every state-matrix cell the review named; the train fixture's
  merge ref is a real merge commit

* fix(context-restore): offer newer checkpoints from nested repos and task worktrees

/context-restore could present an older checkpoint as the latest with no
error in two layouts:

1. A session started in a non-git parent saved from a nested repo, so the
   checkpoint went to the nested repo's bucket. Restore in the parent now
   lists checkpoints of other buckets whose project_root lies below the cwd
   (BELOW_CWD; the 200 newest are read, and from $HOME only each project's
   newest). /context-save also leaves a JSON pointer (checkpoint path, bucket,
   project_root) in the starting directory's bucket when $CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR
   is set and files elsewhere; restore lists those as POINTER, in or out of git.
2. A plan checkpoint on the main tree's branch shadowed a newer checkpoint
   saved in a ticket worktree. When another branch holds a newer checkpoint
   for the same task (a worktree below the main tree, read from the new
   worktree: stamp; equal normalized titles; or a shared #123 / ABC-123
   token in titles or branch names), restore prints NEWER_TASK and the skill
   shows both and proposes the newer one. Generic titles (wip, checkpoint,
   save, notes, todo) never match on title alone, and the worktree rule
   applies only when restoring from the main tree, so sibling worktrees
   still never shadow each other.

The branch-first ordering itself is unchanged.

* fix(redact-prepush): list each MEDIUM finding with rule, file line and fix

The pre-push hook printed only a MEDIUM count, which nobody could review
without re-running the engine by hand. It now prints one line per finding:
rule id, file and file line, and a fix, never the matched value.

Line numbers come from the hunk headers (combined --cc headers included), so
a finding in a later hunk or past a scan-chunk boundary points at the real
file line. Findings from the per-commit catch-up path name the commit whose
file line it is, so content removed before the pushed tip is still locatable.

Plan items: CEO-7 (summary half), DX-9 (fix lines), ENG-8 (line mapping).

* fix(redact-prepush): stop flagging your own email and already-public authors (#3060)

The hook never passed the engine's selfEmail / repoPublicEmails, so every
push that added the pusher's address, or a commit author's, raised a MEDIUM
pii.email warning for an address the destination already shows.

The hook now reads `git config user.email` and one bounded `git log` of
author and committer addresses, raw and mailmapped (%ae %aE %ce %cE): the
history of every pushed tip (those commits become public with the push),
each remote tip being replaced, and, for a new branch or an unknown remote
tip pushed to a configured remote, that remote's own tracking refs. A URL or
unknown destination never borrows tracking refs, and another remote's
history never counts.

The read stops at 50,000 commits (the newest authors are used) and 5 seconds.
An error or the timeout passes no history and, when an email finding is
listed, prints one line saying suppression was limited for this push. The two
inputs fail independently. HIGH findings and every other rule are untouched.

Controls: a stranger's address, an address only another remote knows, a URL
push next to a matching remote, and a first push of a repo with no history
all still report.

Plan items: A3, CEO-7, CEO-23 (A3 half), DX-9 (partial history), ENG-8
(history scope, mailmap).

* feat(redact-prepush): per-address allowlist for pii.email (gstack.redact.allowEmail)

`git config --add gstack.redact.allowEmail <address>` allows that address for
MEDIUM pii.email findings only, so a team alias or support address that has
to be in the repo stops warning without reaching for --no-verify. It never
affects HIGH findings or any other rule, and the pii.email fix line names it.

Controls: a different address still reports, and a HIGH secret next to an
allowed address still blocks.

* fix(browse): offer the user's signed-in tab, name silent aside repl failures

Rules (rendered into every browsing skill, kept short):
- Rule 1: before the first openTab, offer the user's tabs on the target
  origin (title and origin only; the rest of listBrowserTabs() stays
  private) and attach only after the user confirms one.
- Rule 4: a second sign-in wall after a confirmed sign-in means the session
  is bound to the tab or URL; offer that tab instead of another sign-in.
- Rule 6 no longer suggests an early return; rule 7 says a fast [ok without
  GSTACK_STEP_OK is an abort.

Cookbook (browse, devex-review): a "Silent failures" list (evaluate returns
only serializable values, no top-level return, locator(sel).press(key), an
empty DOM read is about the selector until the screenshot and the request's
response say otherwise, read toggle state before clicking) and a signed-in
tab recipe that prints only target-origin tabs and never closes the user's tab.

Parity caps for design-consultation, land-and-deploy, qa and the browse

* feat(codex): run gstack-codex-probe as a command, one subcommand per probe

Generated skills now execute bin/gstack-codex-probe (select-model, check-auth,
show-sandbox, check-sandbox, probe-model, check-version, show-first-use-notice,
run-with-timeout, log-event, log-hang, help) and capture its KEY: value lines,
so no helper state crosses into the calling shell and the preflight works from
bash, zsh or sh. select-model keeps --model > GSTACK_CODEX_MODEL > config.toml
precedence; run-with-timeout supervises with the existing gtimeout/timeout/
watchdog chain and returns 124 on a deadline; an unknown subcommand exits 64.

Sourcing keeps working for skills rendered before the upgrade and prints one
deprecation line naming /gstack-upgrade; it and the zsh self-locate block are
removed in a release on or after 2026-10-21 (DX-18). Parity caps raised with
measured notes for the longer capture lines.

* feat(gstack-post): one argv-only, redaction-scanned write path for PR and issue text

bin/gstack-post posts a PR/MR or issue comment, a review-comment reply, a
PR title or body, a new PR/MR or a new issue from agent-written files. Every
value reaches gh/glab as its own argv element in --flag=<value> form or on
stdin, never through a shell string, and a target is a number or a URL of
this repository on the same host.

The helper owns the redaction scan: it reads each file once, scans those
exact bytes (visibility from config, then gh/glab; the pusher's own email
suppressed) and sends the same bytes. HIGH is refused with exit 1 and no
confirmation can post it. MEDIUM exits 2 with RULE:/LINE:/PART: lines and a
TOKEN: digest of the bytes, destination, operation and findings; only
--confirm <token> for those exact bytes posts, so any edit needs a new
confirmation. gh/glab failures exit 3, usage errors 64. It also carries the
projectCards REST fallback and the title read-back that /ship did by hand.

The logic lives in lib/gstack-post.ts behind an injectable runner, so its
tests run in the Windows free lane; the stub-gh executable test is POSIX.

* fix(autoplan): guard verifies dispatches on Claude Code 2.1.29x (schema strip, unflushed call, named causes)

Cause A: Claude Code journals the model's raw Agent input but hands
PreToolUse the schema-parsed input; with the fork-subagent gate on (the
interactive default in 2.1.292) run_in_background is dropped, so the journal
record never deep-equaled the payload. nativeToolInput now drops only that
documented strip for Agent. Agent input is bound on both paths: keys limited
to prompt, description, subagent_type (general-purpose) and
run_in_background; a model override or any other key is denied.

Cause B: when a ready journal lacks the current call, the guard evaluates
the payload placed after the last journaled record instead of polling for a
record that may arrive only with the tool result. A phase transition counts
a report only when a later journaled record follows it (and, on the journal
path, it is not in the current call's message). One batch rule covers both
paths; a background reviewer keeps the invocation armed until its
completion notice.

Every outcome now has a stable reason code, disposition and anchor
(autoplan/bin/guard-reasons.ts). UC1: Claude-Code-caused states
(unrecognized shape, journal lag, rewritten journal, oversized record,
unchecked-version schema strip) allow with a visible warning; integrity
failures stay denials. No denial advises a bare retry. Every guarded
decision appends one content-free line to analytics/autoplan-guard.jsonl,
trimmed to 1,000 lines past 256 KiB.

* fix(autoplan): publish each phase report with a no-op call; foreground requests are conditional

Phase-close step 6 sends the report in a message whose only tool call is
the Bash no-op ': autoplan-published <phase>', and step 7 makes the next
guarded call in a later message, so the guard sees the report flushed
before the next phase entry regardless of Claude Code's journal timing.

Every site that asked for run_in_background: false now asks for it only
when the Agent schema offers it and says how to recover when a dispatch
runs in the background anyway (wait for its completion notice). Parity
caps rise by the measured bytes.

* feat(ship,spec,review): PR and issue text goes out only through gstack-post

/ship: Step 18 writes the title into an agent-written file. An existing PR's
title is piped from gh/glab through gstack-pr-title-rewrite.sh --stdin (new),
so neither the agent nor a shell string carries it; a new title is written
with the file tool and its version prefix checked in the file. Step 19
composes the body as before and publishes with gstack-post pr-create, or
pr-body then pr-title, which scan the exact bytes they send. The separate
title and body scans, the hand-rolled REST fallback and the title self-check
are gone (the helper does all three). Title preparation moved into the
pr-body section, so the skeleton shrinks.

/spec files its issue with gstack-post issue-create and drops the pre-issue
re-scan; Greptile replies use gstack-post reply and pr-comment.
scripts/resolvers/redact-doc.ts loses its PR and issue sinks, and a test
keeps any template from rendering one again.

Tests that pinned the old scan-then-gh wiring now pin the gstack-post wiring;
the publication tests run the real compose and publish blocks against a stub
gh with the real helper (HIGH in title or body refused, MEDIUM token flow).

* ci: pin Claude Code 2.1.292 in the CI image

2.1.292 is the npm latest users run. Its interactive default turns on the
fork-subagent gate, which strips run_in_background from the Agent schema
and backgrounds reviewers; CI on 2.1.284 never saw the /autoplan guard
break. The image tag is a content hash, so every eval workflow picks up
the new image without a workflow edit.

* fix(brain-sync): one drain lock for every writer to the artifacts repo

gstack-artifacts-init, gstack-brain-restore, gstack-gbrain-source-wireup
and the skill-start merge ran git in $GSTACK_HOME without the drain's lock,
so the drain could never tell an abandoned .git/index.lock from a live one.
They now take the same mkdir lock (bin/gstack-brain-lock.sh): the drain and
the skill-start merge skip when it is held, user-run writers wait for it
(GSTACK_BRAIN_LOCK_WAIT, default 120 s), and a child of the holder (the
drain's daily worktree advance, restore's wireup) inherits it by token.

* fix(brain-sync): hold back only the flagged file, keep coupled artifacts whole

One file with secret-shaped text used to block every push, silently. The
drain now attributes scanner hits to files in one pass over the staged diff
(split on its diff --git headers), holds back each flagged file with the
rest of its coupled group, unstages it, and requires the remaining staged
diff to re-scan clean; anything short of that falls back to a full unstage
and status blocked. Held files stay queued and are re-scanned every drain.

- Status file gains held_count, drainable, last_drain_at, last_push_at and
  held[] (path, scanner rule, dependents, both fixes); new status held.
- Coupled groups come from an explicit map (decisions.jsonl and
  decisions.active.json): a queued member stages the whole group, a group
  stages only when its snapshot matches its log in the index, a skipped
  member stops the whole group.
- --unskip-file undoes --skip-file and queues the path again.
- An index lock older than 10 minutes is removed under the drain lock; a
  younger one, a failed git add, a failed commit (hooks included) keep the
  queue and report status error. A verified empty staged diff is the only
  "nothing to commit". git add runs once, batched.
- The scanner reads bytes, so undecodable content no longer crashes it into
  a false clean; matched text never reaches the status file.
- An empty-queue run with unpushed sync commits stays push_failed.
- Privacy-held duplicate records collapse to one per path; --status counts
  a spool too deep for a shell glob.
- --attention prints skill start's fixed attention lines from the sync
  status table in the usage header.

* feat(skill-start): ARTIFACTS_SYNC attention lines for a stuck sync

Skill start now prints one fixed attention line per sync-status-table row
that applies (held, blocked, push_failed, error, unknown, stale-push,
stale-drain), each naming gstack-brain-sync by absolute path. Values from
the status file are clamped (status code to the table, counts to digits,
timestamps to their shape), so the status message, file paths and scanner
output never reach the line. The preamble tells the model to surface the
line in one sentence and continue. Skill-start tests are generated from the
table in bin/gstack-brain-sync, and docs/gbrain-sync-errors.md carries the
same table.

* fix(outside-review): severity words in label position count as findings

The Oct 7 /autoplan run's Codex CEO and DX reviews labeled seven and eight
findings High/Medium without [Pn] tags, and the classifier printed
VERDICT: clean / FINDINGS: none for both. lib/outside-review-result.ts now
reads severity words in label position (Severity: High, a leading High: /
High — / [High], **High**, a table cell): critical/high block like P0/P1,
medium/low are advisory. Words in prose (high-level, low-risk, no critical
findings) never count. A review or structured response with neither tags,
labels nor an explicit no-findings statement is unverified, never clean
(DX-11, ENG-10). Design-direction proposals move to a new proposal gate so
they keep needing only their Recommendation line, and review prompts ask
for a severity per finding. Fixtures reproduce the CEO/DX label shapes, the
eng [P1] output, a table and prose negative controls; the stored Codex panel
keeps its verdicts. docs/troubleshooting.md explains how the verdict is read.

* feat: gstack-doctor readiness report and setup --status Codex row (B5)

bin/gstack-doctor prints one row per check without starting a skill:
install root (the registry rows behind ./setup --status), state root, Bun
against the floor, hook parse check, Codex mode and self-locate via
gstack-codex-probe subcommands, the cached model probe with its age
(--live runs the paid probe-model), artifacts-sync health from the status
file with the status code clamped, the browse bundle, Claude Code version,
the largest session journal and the last five schema-1 guard reason codes.
Rows are ok, warn, not configured or fail; only fail exits non-zero; fix
lines name helpers by absolute install-root path.

./setup --status gains a read-only Codex row (bin/gstack-codex-status.sh,
shared with the doctor) and ends with the doctor's absolute path.

* docs: bug-report template asks for doctor output; README troubleshooting entry; doctor test in the Windows lane

The template gives the Claude Code doctor path and a lookup for other
hosts and names no bare gstack- command (asserted in
test/gstack-doctor.test.ts). The doctor test runs every script through
explicit bash argv, so it joins the curated Windows free subset.

* fix(question-tuning,plan-tune,gbrain): free text reaches helpers only through agent-written files

Question tuning no longer pipes the question summary through printf: a
registered id needs no summary, and for an unregistered id the agent writes
the summary to .gstack/tmp/qt.txt and passes --summary-file (new). The
helper resolves a relative path against the git top level, removes scratch
files under .gstack/tmp, and asks normally when the file is missing.

/plan-tune tune events carry the user's own words again: they go into a
file the agent writes and reach gstack-question-preference --write through
--free-text-file (new), still behind the injection filter and the
user-origin gate.

docs/gbrain-write-surfaces.md drops its heredoc templates for the
agent-written page file on stdin, matching the per-skill save block, and the
generic save block stops showing a quoted --content argument.

The tuning prose was tightened so every preamble stays within its size cap.

* test(evals): daily autoplan-schema-canary on the latest Claude Code

A periodic rule case installs the latest published Claude Code with
install scripts off, verifies registry signatures, and runs one headless
session with the fork-subagent gate on whose PreToolUse hook records an
Agent and a Read payload. Each payload must match its journal record under
the guard's own comparison, keep the journal's key set apart from the
documented run_in_background strip, and stay inside the Agent allowlist;
a background Agent's completion notice must keep the shape the guard reads.
evals-periodic.yml runs it daily on its own schedule and concurrency group
(read-only token); the weekly census also includes it. A free test proves
the comparison fails on an injected strip.

* fix(doctor): read the artifacts sync held count from held_count, the field the drain writes

* fix(artifacts sync): the init and restore pre-commit hooks catch Bearer/Basic/Token-prefixed JSON auth headers like the drain does

* feat(greptile-early): detect Greptile, ask once on public repos, open the early draft, wait for the review

bin/gstack-greptile-early backs /ship's early Greptile PR:
- detect: a root .greptile/ folder (which takes precedence), greptile.json,
  or a Greptile comment on the repo in the last 90 days; triggerOnDrafts from
  the effective root config; repo visibility; public-repo consent. It prints
  the signal, that /ship will push and open a draft now, the 10-minute wait
  cap and the absolute gstack-config command that turns it off.
- consent yes|no: the public-repo answer, remembered per repo in the
  project's state.
- open: opens the draft through gstack-post with a body saying /ship opened
  it early, and posts one @greptileai comment through gstack-post when the
  config does not set triggerOnDrafts: true. An open PR is left alone.
- wait: polls every 30 s for a completed Greptile check run, a Greptile
  review of the head commit or a summary naming it; each call returns within
  about 90 s and reports timeout 10 minutes after the PR opened.

gstack-config gains ship_greptile_early (default true, invalid values
rejected): on automatically whenever the repo uses Greptile, off per user.
The logic is in lib/greptile-early.ts behind an injectable runner, so its
fixture-repo tests run in the Windows lane; an end-to-end test drives the
real helper and gstack-post against a stub gh.

* feat(ship): early Greptile PR at Step 6.5, bounded wait at Step 10 (#3020)

When the repo uses Greptile, /ship pushes and opens a draft PR right after
its free tests pass (new lazy section greptile-early, Step 6.5), so Greptile
reviews while Steps 7-9 run. A public repo asks once, remembered per repo;
declining keeps today's order. Step 10 waits for that review with
gstack-greptile-early wait and takes the existing unavailable route on a
timeout, never a claim of zero comments. Step 18 replaces the provisional
title, Step 19 marks the draft ready unless a draft was requested, and a
/ship that stops after Step 6.5 leaves the draft open with one comment
saying why.

ship's union cap rises to 1.5275 with the measured note (B4 +836 bytes,
B2 +4,732 bytes); the step-numbering guard allows 6.5; ship goldens are
refreshed for B4 and B2.

* fix(autoplan): the publication no-op is 'true autoplan-published <phase>'

Measured on Claude Code 2.1.292 in a default-settings interactive session:
a bare ':' Bash command asks for approval ('This command requires
approval'), and after a background reviewer's completion notice starts a
new turn the skill's allowed tools no longer cover it, so the phase-close
no-op prompted the user. 'true' with arguments runs without approval and
prints nothing. The guard only needs a later journaled record, so the
command changes everywhere it is named.

* test(evals): live autoplan-guard-pty case on the pinned Claude Code

A gate-tier rule case (one trial, haiku) drives an interactive PTY
session with default settings through a project skill that carries
/autoplan's own hook block: init, Phase 1 entry, a CEO reviewer dispatch
that sends run_in_background, a prepared close packet, the report
published with the no-op, and the Phase 2 entry in a later message. It
reads outcomes from the guard decision log (three verified allows) and
fails if the no-op raises a permission card; other cards are approved and
printed.

* fix(autoplan): bounded, append-tolerant owned-journal read (A2)

The publication guard no longer reads the whole parent journal or refuses
it at 32 MiB. lib/claude-owned-journal.ts streams the bytes present at open
to the last complete line (pass one), keeps a content-free index per record
and decides ownership, ancestry and causal order on it with the same checks
and reason codes as before. Pass two reloads in full only what the
evaluation reads (autoplan/bin/guard-journal.ts): every literal init and its
result, the current call, and inside the invocation window (from the latest
human turn at or before the bound chain's first init) guarded and
close-packet Read results, structured Bash results, error results, assistant
text after the first close Read and active-plan mutations, plus the earlier
Read a dedup reply cites even before the window (ENG-4).

- lib/claude-journal-records.ts: per-record event extraction, record
  metadata and the causal-order checks, shared by readPlanCountTranscript
  and the bounded reader. The batch reader keeps its whole-file read and cap.
- Appends after open never fail a read; same device and inode and no
  shrink are required (identity). A second read in one hook invocation must
  hash bytes [0, first size) the same, or it is `rewritten` (UC1 unverified);
  the unrecognized-shape double read uses that prefix hash. `changing` is
  removed (REMOVED_CODES; its anchor stays).
- OWNED_RECORD_MAX_BYTES (32 MiB): only one record over it is too_large.
  OWNED_RETAINED_MAX_BYTES (32 MiB): over it is the new oversized_invocation
  fallback denial. GSTACK_TRANSCRIPT_TEST_MAX_BYTES and
  GSTACK_TRANSCRIPT_TEST_RETAINED_BYTES can only lower them.
- ENG-5: evaluation groups uses and results by tool id once (no per-tool
  rescans).

CEO-25 / ENG-5 spike (120 MiB synthetic, 31,242 records, 4 vCPU Linux,
Bun 1.4.2): a full streaming rescan (parse every line, small index, sha256)
took 254-326 ms at 147-161 MiB peak RSS; a pass-one index cache under the
state root (load cached index, verify a 64 KiB tail hash, parse the tail)
took 26-29 ms at 47 MiB. The rescan meets the 1 s budget, so the cache is
not adopted: it would add trusted persistent state and invalidation for no
budget need. A backward tail read cannot prove competing_root or cycle, so
it was not a candidate.

* test(autoplan): journal-read benchmark and its dispatch-only workflow (CEO-2, CEO-6)

scripts/measure-journal-read.ts builds two synthetic 120 MiB parent journals
around a real /autoplan invocation (mixed: ~28k records, most bytes inside
the invocation; large-invocation: ~89k records with a current invocation of
many small records), keeps appending while the guard reads, and measures one
hook call in a fresh process (wall ms, peak RSS). The workflow runs it on
ubuntu-latest and macos-latest on workflow_dispatch only.

* test(evals): autoplan-long-session, a resumed >100 MiB session enters Phase 1

CEO-15 with ENG-6's observer: a real session is compacted, its journal
padded past 100 MiB with owned records before the compact boundary, and
the resumed interactive session runs the scripted phase boundary; the
guard decision log must show a verified Phase 1 allow. A free test proves
that observer on a padded journal through the lower-only bound seams
(the PTY counting reader refuses the same journal), with a sidechain
control that must deny.

Garry Tan 55f8151fbe v1.91.30.0 fix: honest eval failure reports, Bun floor with safe auto-update, make-pdf and /review on Codex (#3033)
* docs: approved reliability follow-ups plan (Oct 2026)

* D1: score overlay wrong answers as comparison results (contract v4)

A completed answer that fails the fixture's output check is now a valid
measurement with taskCorrect false and answerError set, in either arm.
Only execution, scope and metric failures invalidate a trial. ON
correctness still gates the case, so an OFF wrong answer stays in the
comparison. OVERLAY_CONTRACT moves to v4; v3 verdicts are not
reinterpreted. Replays the 37198445662 sonnet trials (OFF-0 wrong).

* C4: score auq-matrix substance with a 3-sample judge panel

Each skill keeps one native capture in the same execution; the
recommendation-substance grader now runs as a JUDGE_PANEL_SAMPLES panel on
that capture and gates on the mean against the unchanged minimum of 4. A
failed sample fails the panel without resampling. Approved at the gate
2026-10-04 for censuses after this change.

* E1: one Bun version source; setup refuses below the 1.3.3 floor, updater checks before advancing

bin/gstack-bun-version.sh holds the security floor (1.3.3) and the tested
version (1.4.0, the CI pin and engines.bun). setup refuses Bun below the
floor before writing anything, warns between floor and tested, warns and
continues on an unparseable version, and prints a 1.4.0 install hint.
Prereleases sort below their release (semver).

gstack-session-update now fetches, reads the incoming release's floor and
checks the bun setup will run before fast-forwarding to that exact
revision; below it the update is held with reason bun-too-old and a
resume command, leaving the revision and installs untouched.

Fixture copies of setup (team-mode, claude-code migration) now include the
sourced file; the slow-git lock test sleeps on fetch, the updater's
network step.

* E3: record the owned Chromium's PID over CDP so the #2709 reap runs on Playwright 1.62

Playwright 1.62's Browser has no process(), so chromiumProcInfo was always
null and browse stop never reaped a surviving headless Chromium. The owned
headless launch now reads the browser PID from CDP SystemInfo.getProcessInfo
(bounded at 2s; a hung or failed call logs once and records nothing). The
reaper's start-time and cmdline identity checks are unchanged, so a recycled
PID or an externally owned browser is never signalled.

* A1: ship docs gate records post-child hashes with gstack-docs-candidate, saves each record once

Stored transcripts (37198445662 gate-census-2) show the parent's reads of
release files take ~1 s; the parent's own model time dominates (completion
268 s of 392 s, store ~270 s of 387 s), and 45-78 s of it is retyping hash
maps, child output and records into several artifacts after the child
returns. The child contract is unchanged.

* A2: /plan-ceo-review sends the mode handoff line before any other tool call

plan-ceo-mode-routing's HOLD SCOPE session spends its 240 s post-selection
window on model work: 37176837432 skipped the handoff helper and paraphrased
the mode, 37198445662 ran it, then wrote the plan, loaded sections and probed
Codex for 114 s before the posture chat. The handoff line is the posture.

* B3: accept wrapped unchanged rows in the cropped Edit preview

PR run 37176835584 timed out with the floor's owned Edit menu on screen:
unchanged diff rows soft-wrap under their gutter with a blank marker
column, and a trimmed empty unchanged row keeps only its number. The
parser accepted wrapped +/- rows only, so it never verified the owned
edit. Both forms are now parsed and still compared with the exact source
lines; the captured viewport is replayed with negative controls.

* A3: record per-phase headroom diagnosis for docsync, plan-mode-no-op, mode-routing and gate slice 11

* E4: /review Step 1 keeps going when the base fetch fails and reports stale base coverage

Under Codex's read-only .git, 'git fetch && merge-base && diff --stat'
stopped at the fetch, so the empty output read as 'Nothing to review'.
The fetch is now separate, prints BASE_REFRESH fresh or stale with the
local base revision, and the review states stale coverage.

* D2: reword the format-approach question prompt

Both plan-ceo-review-format-approach refusals in census 37195203538
(Fable 5.1 model_refusal_no_fallback, category reasoning_extraction:
"duplicating model outputs") were anchored on the session prompt, whose
capture instruction asked for the "verbatim" question and "the exact
prose you would have shown" in a "format-capture test". The approach
case now asks for the same question in the same file as the step's
output, without that wording. The other three plan-format cases keep
their unchanged prompt (no refusals in 72 trials).

* 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).

* 0.1: session ledger written by the claude -p, Agent SDK, PTY and Codex runners

Each armed model session appends one best-effort line to
$GSTACK_EVAL_DIR/session-ledger.jsonl: a stable session key, the timeout it
armed, monotonic elapsed time, its end reason (completed, session_timeout,
observer_timeout, api_error, refusal, aborted, error), one sanitized evidence
line and, for stream-JSON runners, a compact liveness summary (longest
in-request silence with nothing outstanding, last event kind, tool open at
end). Partial messages now stream for every claude -p session and for SDK
sessions without a custom query provider (runSharedInteractive opts in); their
rows feed only the summary, so transcripts keep their size unless
publicStreamDiagnostics is set. Structured refusal and API-error signals win
over phrases, and tool results are never read for them.

* 0.2: failure_cause beside failure_class, from runner facts and the session ledger

One pure failureCauseOf() beside failureClassOf() sets failure_cause
(contract > pre_turn_infra > api_error > refusal > provider_stall >
session_timeout > observer_timeout > assertion > unknown; no machine-set
'detector') with one bounded evidence line, and failureDetailOf() keeps a
Bun matcher's Expected/Received or a judge's failing dimensions in
failure_detail. Both record builders (classifyTrialShard, junitCensus) call
them and attach the trial's ledger sessions. failure_class, error and
TRIAL_ERROR_MAX are computed exactly as before; the new fields are optional,
bounded and validated only when present, and a frozen copy of the v1 reader
accepts every new record. A provider stall needs partial messages and
STALL_WINDOW_MS (120 s, eval-budgets.ts beside HEADROOM_WARN/FAIL) of
in-request silence with nothing outstanding; it stays a failure under
EVAL_POLICY v1.

* E4: fingerprint under a read-only .git via a private object dir owned by review-log

Codex's sandbox mounts .git read-only, so gstack-wtree's git add -A could not
write blobs and /review lost its start capture. gstack-review-log now creates
a private 0700 object directory under TMPDIR, passes it to gstack-wtree (which
writes new objects there with the common-dir object store, resolved before
exporting, as an alternate, so linked worktrees work), exposes it to the
bindReview/checkSharedLibsReuse consumers that read the tree and blobs, and
removes it on EXIT/INT/TERM after they finish. gstack-wtree prints one stderr
line and exits 1 on a failed write or unwritable TMPDIR instead of printing a
partial hash; review-log no longer swallows that line. Standalone gstack-wtree
keeps writing to the repository store so git diff between saved snapshots
(/ship) still works.

* 0.3: red lines name their values, evidence and an after-a-repair command; one published-text sanitizer

Each red line in the census report keeps its stored error and adds the
machine cause with its evidence, the failure_detail values (Expected/Received,
or each failing judge dimension with its mean, sample count and the sample
sentence naming it), the slice artifact and shard directory that hold the
transcript, a fetch command (eval:pass-rates --run <id> --case <id>), and
'after a repair:' with a command that selects only that case (E2E ids via
--case, judges via their selection and an exact test-name filter). A
session that completed and failed a check says so instead of 'assertion
(success)'. Report text that reaches a PR comment, issue or committed file
goes through scripts/lib/published-text.ts: control and bidi characters
stripped, credential-scan patterns redacted, mentions neutralized, HTML and
link brackets escaped inline, blocks in a fence longer than any backtick run,
length capped. Verdicts and collector verdict objects are unchanged.

* E2: one make-pdf resolver for readiness and every $P block on env-var hosts

make-pdf exported $P from its readiness block, which Codex and the other
env-var hosts lose between blocks. binaryAssignment gains 'make-pdf': the
MAKE-PDF SETUP readiness check and the runtime prelude both use it, so every
block that runs $P derives the same make-pdf/dist/pdf binary, with
MAKE_PDF_BIN (dev builds) winning when it is executable. Claude output keeps
its repo-local-first probe; only the false 'subsequent blocks' comment
changed. Root plus P=... fits the 400-byte prelude budget; the fixed
MAKE_PDF_OVERRIDE segment is the one exemption, named in runtime-root.ts and
the conformance test.

* 0.1: eval:pass-rates --headroom, --reds and --run report views; 85% headroom alarm in --gate

A new pure module, scripts/lib/eval-history.ts, reports per case the slowest
armed session against the timeout it armed (censored when it timed out,
insufficient below 3 samples, unknown without a session ledger, with the
case wall shown separately as an upper bound), the census critical path from
the slice jobs' timings, the verdict red ledger per census by failure class
and machine cause with shrunk per-case rates, and the all-green probability
(an approximation: the product of 1 - p_i, with an interval). --run <id>
lists one census's reds with their values and history and downloads only the
slice artifacts those reds name, reporting any over 64 MB instead of skipping
them. eval-flake-rank.ts only routes flags: --help works offline, an unknown
flag or case id exits 2 before any fetch, --case narrows the JSON and the
alarms, every view prints its run/branch scope, and --gate also alarms on a
session above HEADROOM_FAIL (85%) of its budget.

* E5: GSTACK_DESIGN_IMAGE_MODEL override; the live model check always tests the defaults

The image_generation tool model gains an env override validated against a
conservative gpt-image-<version> pattern; a bad value fails before any
request and the error names the variable. Pairing and rejection hints name
the tool model actually requested. design/scripts/live-model-check.ts now
ignores GSTACK_DESIGN_MODEL and GSTACK_DESIGN_IMAGE_MODEL (and says so), so
an override cannot mask a retirement of a default, and its exit 2 (no key)
says nothing was checked.

* C3: /deslop-shared-libs names a concrete risk for each recommendation, never 'none'

Both shared-libs-opportunity-judgment reds (37193478719 t3, 37195203538 t1)
failed adoption_and_risk because the top recommendation said 'Main risk:
none found inside the repo' / 'none in behavior'. The skill asked to 'name
the main risk or uncertainty' without saying what counts.

* B4: --case selects loop-registered cases; an unknown id exits before any process

caseSelection() resolves the one paid file that registers a case and how a
trial selects it: by its literal Bun test name, by the id a registration loop
names its test at runtime (coverage audits, TPA, journeys), or by running the
whole file when it registers no other case (plan-mode-no-op, whose test names
are not the id, so the old name pattern ran nothing). A whole-file case runs
one file shard per trial and is judged by shard status, as CI judges it.
--list prints the selection. Every E2E_TIERS id now resolves except
carve-section-loading, which fifteen files register (CI runs each as its own
shard) and which still fails with the owning files named.

* 0.3: after-a-repair runs the shard file when --case cannot resolve a case

A case that several files register (carve-section-loading) cannot be selected
by --case; its red line now prints the bun test command for the shard file
that went red, so every printed command selects exactly one case.

* C1: pre-register workflow-judge control bundles for qa, qa-only, review and setup-deploy

Positive (production bundle), negative (headings only) and one targeted
execution-blocking defect per judge, one 3-sample panel each, built with the
eval's own reader, prompt builder, options and floors.

* F: cost_known: a trial whose harness captured no billing says so; totals never hide it

cost_usd stays a finite number. Trial and eval records gain an optional
cost_known boolean (absent means known, so old records still parse; the
validator accepts only a boolean). Session-ledger rows record whether the
session's terminal result carried total_cost_usd; PTY and Codex sessions
never do, and SDK captures without a terminal result do not. A trial is
cost-known only when it has eval records and every record and session
captured billing, so JUnit-only PTY cases (125 of 298 trials in run
37198445662 recorded 0) now read cost unknown. The census headline prints the
known sum plus the unknown count, never a bare total over unknown costs, and
no total when every cost is unknown; the history import keeps the flag.
PTY transcripts are not priced: test/helpers/pricing.ts estimates exclude
cache writes, so they cannot give the billed cost.

* B1: replay corpora for the five repeat-offender cases

shared-libs-plan-callers, plan-ceo-section-loading, auto-decide-preserved,
plan-design-review-plan-mode and ship-docsync-late-result each get an
inventory of every wave census in scope (all artifacts still available)
and minimal, redacted detector or actor inputs replayed through the real
detector in the free suite: census passes, every distinct census red, and
derived negative controls labelled as derived. Fixed false reds stay as
expected passes with their history; the two genuine auto-decide product
failures (37176837432, 37179171083) stay refused. A contract test bounds
each entry at 64 KB, scans it for HIGH credentials, requires a pass and a
refusal per case, and reports entries whose series identity is stale.

Building the auto-decide corpus exposed a latent native detector misread:
a bold 'Mode application and rationale.' heading was parsed as a
withdrawn Mode field (37186854666). A field status now ends at its
sentence.

* B2: read approved stale-fill decisions from more valid ledger records

The structured ledger reader is authoritative before the prose fallback,
but it missed two valid approved records in passing censuses
(37186854666: a camelCase writeProfile subject; 37195203538: a
slash-joined 'D1 / STALE-FILL' row id), which then rested on the prose
detector that caused both historical reds. Both forms are accepted; an
unresolved row, an unrelated decision, the copied fixture plan and
non-write camelCase words stay refused.

* C1: record workflow-judge control results (negatives separated; qa and review miss a removed step)

* C2: record every low workflow-judge sample in the wave censuses with its disposition

* 0.3: published lines cannot break a fixed fence

evals.yml wraps collector-outcomes failures in a fixed three-backtick fence
for the PR comment, so those lines (and eval:pass-rates output meant for the
tracking issue) go through sanitizeFixedFenceLine: cleaned like every
published line, with backticks turned into quotes. Inline published text
also neutralizes backticks.

* A1: fit the post-child record wording under ship's 1.428 parity size cap

* E4: inline the Step 1 base refresh to fit review's 1.199 parity size cap

* B2: inventory of gate and periodic phrase-only detector checks

docs/evals/detector-inventory.md lists every pass/fail decision in gate
and periodic E2E cases that rests on phrases in model free text, with
its structured source (if any), whether the contract is user-visible,
and a disposition: already structured-first, convert candidate, phrase
witness required, or no structured source. Convert candidates are
ordered by census red history.

* 0.2: failureCauseOf takes the stall window instead of importing it; the PTY ledger never throws

eval-store.ts imported STALL_WINDOW_MS from eval-budgets.ts, which free tests
replace with mock.module stubs (review-finalization-budget, office-hours,
qa-fix-loop, qa-only), so loading eval-store failed there. failureCauseOf is
now dependency-free: the record builders pass STALL_WINDOW_MS. A PTY session
whose handle cannot show its text (test doubles) records no panel instead of
throwing from runPtySession's cleanup. The 37186854666 replay also runs
through classifyTrialShard.

* A2/auto-decide: the CEO handoff chat repeats the helper's printed line verbatim

Claude Code 2.1.284 collapses the helper's Bash output ('Ran 1 shell
command'), so the 'Auto-decided review mode → …' line reaches the user only
through chat. In lane D's auto-decide-preserved corpus every passing capture's
chat starts with that line, and the reds paraphrased it ('HOLD SCOPE was
auto-selected…', 'Mode decision done…', "I'm defaulting to HOLD SCOPE…").
The template now says verbatim and why.

* C2: record the judge panels rerun on the final ship and review wording

* integrate: touchfiles and module-size ratchet entries for the wave's new modules

GLOBAL_TOUCHFILES gains session-ledger.ts, published-text.ts and
auq-substance-panel.ts; bin/gstack-bun-version.sh joins every entry that
lists setup or the updater; auq-matrix stays a rule case with its C4
evidence beside E2E_KINDS; eval-history, published-text and session-ledger
are registered new modules.

* E1: BROWSE SETUP install hint pins the tested Bun (1.4.0)

* E2: quote "$P" in make-pdf commands so install paths with spaces work

* E1: /gstack-upgrade checks the incoming Bun floor before pulling

gstack_bun_incoming_hold (bin/gstack-bun-version.sh) is now the one
pre-advance check: the auto-updater calls it before its fast-forward and
/gstack-upgrade's git path calls it after fetching. Below the incoming
release's floor the upgrade stops with BUN_TOO_OLD and the checkout,
VERSION and installs stay untouched. Vendored installs were already safe:
setup refuses before writing and the swap restores the previous install.

* 0.3: only main posts or closes tracking issues; reports carry alarms, red ledger, headroom and all-green

A branch-dispatched periodic or marathon run writes its report to the step
summary and a report artifact; the upsert and close steps run only on
refs/heads/main. The periodic body now keeps every pass-rate alarm line (the
old grep kept only the header), adds the red ledger and session headroom read
with an explicit --branch, the all-green estimate and the triage guide link,
and routes report text through scripts/lib/published-text.ts. The marathon
lane gains the matching close-on-green step.

Migrated: evals-workflow-wiring pinned report-summary.md in the upsert step;
the body is now written by 'Write the census report'.

* C3: prosons neutral-posture detector ignores a negated "taste call"

Both plan-review-prosons-neutral-neg reds (37179171083 t3, 37193478719 t3)
recommended A and closed with "a coverage call, not a taste call"; the
old /taste call/i matched the negation. The detector moves to a helper so
the two census captures replay free as negatives, with positive controls.

* B2: credit the CEO mode handoff only when the chat shows its line

Claude Code 2.1.284 collapses the gstack-ceo-mode-handoff Bash result, so
the printed AUTO_DECIDE line is user-visible only when a later chat message
of the session begins with it. The native detector now requires that
witness; the helper's tool result locates it but no longer replaces it, and
a generic mode statement cannot stand in once a handoff ran. Census
37182865432 is relabelled a genuine miss (expected: refused): the chat said
"I'm defaulting to HOLD SCOPE…" and "Mode decided: HOLD SCOPE". Corpus
replay: 5 credited, 3 refused. ceo-mode-handoff tests migrated to the
witness rule (deliberate behavior change).

* test: baseline the wave's approved detector and harness replay tests

B1 corpora, B3, C3, C4 and D2 replay captures through paid-case detectors,
actors or fixtures (test code by design); each entry carries its reason.

* E6: live Codex multi-block periodic case in the host-run Codex job

test/codex-e2e-multiblock-live.test.ts runs ./setup --host codex once from the
job's checkout into a fresh HOME and CODEX_HOME (auth.json copied from the CI
login home), asserts codex debug prompt-input lists the gstack router as a
real file, seeds one learning, and runs /learn's Show recent block through
codex exec: that later block must root itself through its prelude, run the
installed gstack-learnings-search and print the seeded learning; no block may
report a missing install or an unresolved gstack helper path.

The file joins CODEX_CI_FILES so the planner gives it to the host-run Codex
job. paid-test-durations.json carries a 180 s packing estimate (refreshed by
--write-durations after the first census) so the plan keeps every slice
within max-parallel. Oracles live in test/helpers/codex-multiblock.ts with
free replays in test/codex-multiblock.test.ts. Registration (E2E_TOUCHFILES,
E2E_TIERS periodic, E2E_KINDS rule) is the integrator's.

* E5: design live-model check as a periodic case

test/skill-e2e-design-model-smoke.test.ts runs design/scripts/live-model-check.ts
(default models only) under a temp HOME. Without OPENAI_API_KEY the case is a
Bun skip that the census lists as SKIPPED with no coverage credit; with a key,
exit 0 passes and any other exit fails with the script output (exit 2 under a
present key fails as 'nothing was checked'). paid-test-durations.json carries
a 90 s packing estimate. Registration (E2E_TOUCHFILES, E2E_TIERS periodic,
E2E_KINDS rule) is the integrator's.

* A1: docsync parent points children at a saved interface file

The /ship docsync fixture saved its observation interface only in the
parent prompt and told the parent to copy it into every child prompt,
about 30-40 s of parent generation per session (lane S, 37198445662).
docsSessionOptions now writes it to <home>/fixture-interface.md (0600) and
the parent tells each child to Read that file first. Fault-actor prompts,
which prepare already writes to a file, are unchanged. Fixture-only.

* A3: a JUnit case's recorded wall is capped by its shard's wall

junitCensus summed a case's JUnit test times as duration_ms; for
plan-mode-no-op's concurrent PTY tests that is 346 s inside a 176 s shard
(the "432-613 s" history). The case wall headroom shows is now
min(sum, shard elapsed), a true upper bound. Session headroom already
used the ledger's per-session clocks.

* A3: refresh paid-test durations from census 37198445662

Recorded 2026-09-29 estimates under-packed gate slice 11 (17 files
estimated 1078 s ran 1353 s; plan-review-report 76 s -> 198 s,
plan-ceo-plan-mode 37 s -> 112 s, safety-codex-consult 83 s -> 150 s).
Refreshed both tiers with --report --write-durations from the latest
census's slice walls. Old plan re-costed with observed walls: worst slice
~677 s (slice 11); refreshed plan: every slice estimated <= 539 s.

* 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.

* C2: name the flows judges found implicit in review resolvers

Structured outside review: MISSING COVERAGE asks no fix question and is
never reported clean (was "preserve the existing user decision flow").
/review's HIGH-impact plan gate: spawned or non-interactive runs report
REQUIREMENTS MISSING and continue, writing no TODOs. Value cards: the byte
clamp applies to card lines; JSON records you write keep full values.

* C1: a free test catches a removed workflow step, which the judges missed

C1 controls showed the qa workflow judge passing /qa without Phase 10 and
the review judge passing /review without Step 3. The new test pins every
step/phase heading of qa, qa-only, review, ship, plan-ceo-review,
plan-eng-review and setup-deploy (derived from the templates' step
headings) and names any that goes missing or out of order; new step
headings must be pinned. The judge rubric is unchanged (EVAL_POLICY).

* size: fit the wave's wording under ship, review and qa parity caps

Measured after all lane merges: ship -79, review -210, qa -68 bytes over.
Trimmed the added wording first (post-expiry rule, MISSING COVERAGE,
plan-gate default, value-card JSON, stop line) and folded /review's
redundant INFORMATIONAL sentence and findings bullet. ship 268,036 (room
8), review 130,118 (room 1). qa needed 11 more bytes: cap 1.11 -> 1.1102
with the measured 93,305 / 84,049 = 1.11013 and its reason beside it.

* docs: troubleshooting sections for the wave's new messages

Bun floor (setup, auto-update, /gstack-upgrade), /review stale base and
fingerprint temp-dir errors, the design image model override, the
unrecorded Chromium PID, and a contributor section for census report
lines (pass-rates flags, failure causes, headroom, cost unknown, overlay
v4, stale corpora, auq substance). A free test checks every
troubleshooting.md#anchor printed by setup or bin scripts exists.

* TODOS: reliability follow-ups deferrals; close the Bun floor, make-pdf $P and #2709 reap

* 0.4: 'A census went red' guide; docs for causes, session ledger, headroom and new messages

docs/evals/census-red.md walks one red line to a diagnosis: prerequisites, the
report fields, eval:pass-rates --run/--reds/--headroom with expected output,
what unknown/insufficient/unrecorded data means, free replay, and the single
'after a repair' paid run allowed by TESTING_INTERNALS. Linked from
CONTRIBUTING, TESTING_INTERNALS and both census reports.

TESTING_INTERNALS documents the failure_cause glossary (one row per
FAILURE_CAUSES value, diagnostic only under EVAL_POLICY v1), failure_detail,
sessions[], cost_known, the session ledger, the pass-rates views and the 85%
headroom alarm, main-only tracking issues, overlay contract v4, auq-matrix's
3-sample substance panel and the E5/E6 periodic cases. troubleshooting.md
gains #bun-too-old and an anchor per new user-facing message from lanes P, D
and F. README names GSTACK_DESIGN_IMAGE_MODEL. test/census-red-docs.test.ts
pins the glossary to FAILURE_CAUSES, parses every guide command and checks the
links.

* v1.91.20.0: CHANGELOG and version for the reliability follow-ups

* regen: SKILL.md and sections for all hosts, digest, context-budget fixture

bun run gen:skill-docs --host all; goldens and llms.txt re-rendered
unchanged; bun test/helpers/capture-context-budget.ts.

* integrate: register codex-multiblock-live and design-model-smoke (periodic, rule)

* 0.4: census report and eval:pass-rates views link the census-red guide

* test: cookie approval fixture reverses the Bun install-hint pin (E1)

The historical approved cookie-workflow prompt carried BUN_VERSION=1.3.10;
the regenerated install hint now pins 1.4.0, so the fixture's reversal
list gains that edit like the earlier waves' entries.

* test: release floor counts the two new periodic cases (E5, E6)

* fix: /freeze, /guard, /unfreeze and /investigate work on Codex and other env-var hosts

Templates quoted "$HOME/.claude/skills/gstack/...", which the env-var hosts'
rewrites turned into "$HOME/.agents/skills/gstack/..." on Codex (a path a
global install never has; same class on the other hosts), and setup's
runtime roots had no freeze/bin. Quoted runtime paths now use
{{RUNTIME_ROOT}}: $GSTACK_ROOT on env-var hosts (the fence gets the
runtime prelude), the unchanged $HOME path on Claude. _link_runtime_dists
links freeze/bin and the careful/bin helper it sources into every
env-var host's root. Also fixes the same guess in /benchmark-models,
/retro and /diagram. test/env-host-runtime-assets.test.ts fails on the
previous code: no fence guesses a $HOME/<dir>/skills/gstack path, every
$GSTACK_ROOT path a fence uses is in the host's runtime root, and the
installed Codex /freeze and /unfreeze fences run from a fresh shell.
Template-reading tests now read the Claude render or expect the
placeholder (deliberate change).

* CHANGELOG/TODOS: lane W's workflow, cases and guide; the env-var host freeze fix

* E6: a block that reads a SKILL.md is not a missing install

The first live codex-multiblock-live run passed its real check (the /learn
block found the install and printed the seeded learning) but the oracle
flagged a sed of the learn SKILL.md, whose prelude source quotes the
'gstack: no install found (tried $_r)' text. Only an emitted line that
starts with the message and names a real root counts now; free replay
negative added.

* 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.

* C2: keep PROBE_DIR 'owned' (qa-functional-prompt pins it); qa measured 93,311

* test: paid file count and periodic floor include the two new periodic cases

* test: ship docs freshness pin checks meaning after A1's wording trim

The snapshot still hashes selected release paths (--select narrows them),
generated outputs and docs; the pin now checks that instead of the
pre-trim sentence.

* E3: reap the recorded Chromium only after the daemon has exited

With the PID now recorded (E3), browse stop reaped Chromium while the
daemon was still shutting down; the daemon read that as a crash, exited 1
and left its state file (chromium-profile-isolation's headless stop test
failed 3/3 locally, passes on base). The CLI waits up to 5 s for the daemon
to exit before reaping a survivor.

* regen: qa and qa-only exploratory sections (PROBE_DIR wording)

* B1: batching counter reads a target declared mid-line; replay corpus

GSTA-23's census 37228573062 failed plan-eng-multi-finding-batching with
reviewCount=0 after 975 s although D1-D10 were asked one per finding,
each with its saved decision-ledger record. The report wrote 'Report
destination requested by the user. Review target (fixed): `PLAN.md` ...'
and the counter read target fields only at a line start, so no brief
inherited the plan identity. A target field may now open any sentence of
its line; a mid-sentence mention or another file still gives no identity.
Floor (3), budget and kind unchanged. Corpus: 9 earlier passing censuses,
the red (now credited at D5), and a derived batching refusal; 975 s noted
in the headroom diagnosis.

* B1: shared-libs corpus labels its git path and covers the supported shape

Every census entry was recorded in CI's eval image (git 2.43), where
gstack-safe-git falls back because --no-lazy-fetch is rejected; each entry
now says so (git_path: fallback). Two synthetic supported-path entries
(HEAD and a history citation in the brief, as git >= 2.44 produces) keep
the 37193478719 pass and the 37195203538 refusal, and a test asserts both
shapes are covered and the actor reads no git-path-specific text.

* v1.91.21.0: move off v1.91.20.0 (claimed by #3031)

* test: settle nav-guard commands before asserting; make two new tests Windows-safe

navigation-guard: Bun's expect(promise).rejects slows each Playwright round-trip
to ~1s while it waits (50 page.evaluate: 43ms plain vs 46.6s inside the matcher),
so the click's 5s timeout expired before the guard saw the link-local request
(CI: 'click: Timeout 5000ms exceeded ... waiting for scheduled navigations').
Settle the command first, then assert on the refusal; a source check keeps it so.

env-host-runtime-assets: PROBE_FILES now matches either path separator.
detector-corpus ship-docsync-late-result: JSON-escape the <ROOT> substitution so a
Windows temp path's backslashes do not break JSON.parse.

* fix: CI run/job ids are not phone numbers; context-recovery fixture gets the full runtime bin

pii.phone.e164 redacted the run id in the published eval report's fetch command
(--run 37235771700), breaking the command it prints. Digit-only spans in a run/job
flag, gh run argument, actions/runs/ or /job/ URL segment, or run_id/job_id key are
now exempt; the same digits elsewhere still report.

context-recovery-artifacts: the fixture's ./bin/ lacked gstack-skill-start and
gstack-context-recovery (the preamble's runtime scripts since v1.71), so the agent
spent its 10 turns hunting for them and hit error_max_turns with no final message
(run 37235771700, 11 turns). Link the whole runtime bin; diagnostic rerun passed
in 6 turns.

* test: replay run 37237194905's late-result capture through the docs authority detector

The only failure was call 20's write to a mistyped shard root (3GanyY for 3GanyU),
which the model disclosed; the detector is correct and the A1 post-snapshot
--out under the fixture home stays permitted. Named red recorded in TODOS.

* test: keep docsync-authority in the Windows profile

The replay test's literal helper path tripped the Windows curator's shebang-spawn
pattern, dropping the whole file from the Windows profile (test-free-shards
invariant). The snapshot --out case is already covered by docsync-command-grammar,
so it is removed here, and the Linux-path replay skips on win32.

* fix: gstack-docs-candidate --help works; docs gate red lines name the denying tool failure

PR run 37239016858 ship-docsync-completion: the parent ran
'gstack-docs-candidate --help' (the helper's usage error points at --help, which
failed). That undeclared command made docsToolFailures non-empty, which denied
the atomic-replacement proof of the child's legitimate native Edit, so the red
line blamed the Edit's temp file. A replay of the capture proves the atomic
replace once --help is declared.

- the helper prints its usage for --help/-h and exits 0
- the fixture interface and command grammar admit the helper's bare --help
- the atomic-proof denial names its check and the tool failures behind it
  (deny labels renumbered to their lines)
- replay with negative controls (undeclared command, temp left behind, renamed
  elsewhere); diagnostic rerun of ship-docsync-completion passed

* test: retro-base-branch fixture uses main and a shallow report path

PR run 37241493377: the agent wrote retro-output.md one directory above the
requested <tmp>/retro-base/retro-output.md (it dropped the retro-base segment),
so the report check found nothing. The fixture also ran plain git init, which
makes master on CI's git while the prompt says the repo is on main; the agent
logged that mismatch as a learning. Init on main and use the temp dir itself as
the repo. Diagnostic rerun passed (18 turns, 203s).

* 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.

* review/ship: use main's post-expiry smoke sentence; v1.91.24.0

GSTA-23's measurement on the review workflow judge: main's 'Post-expiry smoke
rechecks are not-run.' passed 10/10; the C2 wording passed 6/10 and the
'..., even in 4c.' variant failed in PR run 37248650879. qa-probe-gates pins
main's sentence before step 4c.

* test: record the plan-design corpus test in the test-of-test baseline

#3031's ratchet now counts tests that slice a paid test file's source; the B1
plan-design-review-plan-mode replay corpus reads test/skill-e2e-design.test.ts
like its sibling corpora already listed.

* fix: --case no longer deadlocks importing the running CLI

runCaseDiagnosis loaded runPaidShards with a dynamic import of
scripts/test-paid-shards.ts; when that file is the entry it is still in its
top-level await, so the import never resolved and `--case` hung after its
first line (on main since #3031, found by the per-case measurement runs). The
CLI now passes its runner in; library callers keep the lazy import.

* test: name the in-flight file and the native error when bun dies before its summary (#3037)

* Bun 1.4.2 everywhere CI and setup pin the tested version

Bun 1.4.0 on Windows aborts about 3% of free-suite shards with native
bad-handle errors (main too; #3037); the same head on 1.4.2 had none in 180
shard runs. Every current 1.4.0 pin moves together, as bun-version-drift
requires: setup-bun in every workflow (CSO orchestration included), the eval
image (sha256 from bun-v1.4.2's SHASUMS256.txt, re-hashed locally), GitLab,
the Ubicloud free-suite setup, gstack-bun-version.sh's tested version,
engines.bun and @types/bun, the install hint in generated skills, the Dia and
cookie native-qualification pins, and docs and tests that state the current
pin. Recorded 1.4.0 observations, fixtures, CHANGELOG history and the CSO
images' oven/bun:1.3.10 base stay.

* fix: --case runs a single-case file whole

A session option naming the case (testName: 'office-hours-section-loading')
made caseSelection pick test-name mode, whose filter matched no Bun test, so
every trial would run hollow. A file that registers only this case now runs
whole before any name match is tried.

* fix(office-hours): reviewer returns a hash-bound receipt instead of echoing its verdict

The spec reviewer now Writes its verdict once, seals it with
gstack-office-hours-review seal (validates the saved JSON and prints
OFFICE_HOURS_VERDICT round=N sha256=<hash> path=<verdict>), and returns
only that line. check --receipt recomputes the hash and fails closed on a
missing, malformed, stale-round, wrong-path or mismatched receipt. The
saved file stays the sole findings inventory; validators bind the receipt
to the saved bytes and the judge reads those bytes.

* fix(office-hours): only blocking findings send a design back for another review round

Review findings carry severity blocking|minor (verdict schema v2). PASS when
no blocking findings remain; minor findings are recorded in Reviewer
Concerns and the Spec Review table, never a reason for another round.
CONVERGENCE needs a persisting blocking prior. A persisting or unverified
blocking prior cannot be relabeled minor. The 3-round cap is unchanged.

* fix(office-hours): rounds 2 and 3 are delta re-reviews of the captured design diff

prepare saves each reviewed design as round-N.design.md and gives later
reviewers the exact line diff since the previous round. A new later-round
blocking finding must cite (changed_text) an excerpt of a changed line;
seal, check and the validators verify it against the snapshots and fail
closed when a citation or snapshot is missing. Other new observations are
minor. Severity, anti-downgrade and CONVERGENCE rules are unchanged.

* test(office-hours): preservation judge accepts COMPLETED with recorded minor findings

* fix(office-hours): parent fixes only blocking findings; callers may set --max-rounds

Between rounds the parent edits for blocking findings only; minor findings
stay recorded. gstack-office-hours-review takes --max-rounds 1|2|3 (default
3) on every command; reaching it stops at MAX_ITERATIONS. The marathon
fixture sets 2 rounds so round 1 (full) and round 2 (delta) run live.

* docs(changelog): office-hours review loop changes in v1.91.28.0

* fix(cso): helper JSON keeps run URLs only in the validated workflow slot

The shared redactor now treats GitHub Actions run ids as CI metadata
(c245d1bc2), so main's #3041 invariant that the same run digits stay
redacted outside qualification.workflow held only through the phone
false positive. Make it explicit in the CSO sanitizer.

* test(plan-ceo): split-overflow progress detector accepts the skill's candidate wording

Collection never ended when the model wrote 'E1 Slack:' / 'E1-SLACK:' or
labels like 'Include in this quarter' / 'Defer with flip trigger', so the
session ran the whole review (930-1464 s) and failed on its extra findings
or the case deadline (6 of 21 runs). The candidate check now accepts a
platform-bound E-id and the action is the bucket's leading verb, as the
skill names them (Include/Defer/Cut/Hold). The semantic judge, call floor
and include/defer/cut validation are unchanged. Replays the captured CI
37374526437, t2, t9 and t15 menus with negative controls.

* test(plan-ceo): split-overflow candidate identity is the one E1-E5 token

The skill fixes no header or question wording, and shape-matching kept
missing new forms (header 'D1.1 Slack' with 'SCOPE-E1:', 'D1.1 E1 Slack',
'E1 Slack DM bot ...:', a misspelled 'Mattermst'). Identity is now exactly
one E1-E5 token across the header and the question's first line, with no
other candidate's platform named. Options rules, judge, call floor and
include/defer/cut validation are unchanged. Replays all 31 measured runs;
the quoted-row controls now quote a second ledger id.

* v1.91.30.0: move past #3044's claimed 1.91.29.0

* test: register the split-overflow wording replay as a free fixture

* fix(skills): resolve judge-cited ambiguities in /qa and /plan-eng-review

- tasks JSONL keeps the raw branch as GIT_BRANCH instead of overwriting
  gstack-slug's sanitized BRANCH used for artifact names
- the Codex outside-voice block runs for ready or unverified, matching
  its routing rule
- plan-eng startup names the preamble's own setup prompts; the
  cross-project question waits for Step 0
- /qa 8c: a fix that applies but leaves the finding reproducing gets one
  revised fix, else it is reverted; browser verification names its before
  screenshot; the exploratory loop drops its duplicate 3-step summary

* fix(plan-eng): keep the startup steps in their pinned order

* fix(plan-eng): explicit spawned sessions follow the spawned rule at the scope gate; one announcement rule

A missing tool still sends the prose menu whatever the session type, but a
session the caller or host explicitly marks spawned selects the menu's
Recommendation without prose or BLOCKED. The pre-load announcement
sentence now states Step 0's single check.

* eval policy v3: judge panels gate on the per-dimension median of 3 samples

A judge dimension now passes when at least 2 of its 3 samples meet the
unchanged threshold (judgePanelMedian); any other sample count or a
non-numeric sample fails closed. Thresholds, sample count, judge model and
prompts are unchanged; panel logs show every sample and the mean, and name
the median as the gate. Applies to the skill-llm-eval panels, the
workflow-judge cache, the auq-matrix substance panel and the calibration
replicas. EVAL_POLICY 2 -> 3 and HARNESS_VERSION 1 -> 2 (verdicts change),
so every case starts a new pass-rate series. Replays the captured panels
from jobs 112032744416 and 112049856586 as replayed evidence.
