f67c478f05 v1.91.34.0 fix: /autoplan on current Claude Code and long sessions, quieter pre-push and sync guards, gstack-post, gstack-doctor (#3069)
* docs: Oct 7 follow-up wave plan (pre-review)

* docs: Oct 7 follow-up wave plan, reviewed through /autoplan

* docs: Oct 7 wave plan, record final gate decisions (UC1 accepted, UC2 rejected)

* docs: credit #1822 to @Mike-E-Log and #1743 to @habassa5 (v1.64.0.0)

The v1.64.0.0 CHANGELOG entry credited the extension token fix (#1822)
and the polyfill exited promise (#1743) to the wrong handle, and the
extension-sender-auth test header repeated the first slip. Commit history
is not rewritten.

Fixes #3054.

* 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.

Plan item: DX-17.

* test(redact-prepush): assemble fixture addresses at runtime

The email fixtures were literals, so this branch's own push listed 47
pii.email findings in its test file. Build them from a helper instead, the
way the neighbouring tests build credential and IP fixtures.

* 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
skeleton are raised to the measured sizes, with notes.

* 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.

+8 28f1385eac v1.91.32.0 fix: Codex works from zsh, free text never enters shell commands, honest failures (#3057)
* fix: sourced helpers locate themselves under zsh (#3024)

Skill blocks source bin/gstack-codex-probe and bin/gstack-egress-lib.sh into
the host's shell. Under zsh (macOS default) BASH_SOURCE is empty, so Codex
model selection resolved /../scripts/... and every outside pass reported
CODEX_MODEL: invalid; the egress lib resolved to the caller's cwd. Resolve
the file once at source time (BASH_SOURCE under bash, %x under zsh), and
replace the bash-only ${!name} indirection in the auth probe. A free test
derives every sourced helper from the generated skills and sources each
under bash and zsh.

* fix: reply and issue templates never pass untrusted text in double quotes (#3046)

greptile-triage's reply APIs posted -f body="<reply text>" while the
templates quote SHAs and diff code in backticks; in double quotes bash ran
each span (replies posted as 'Fixed in .', and diff or reviewer text ran as
a command). The pre-existing-failure issue template and /spec's issue title
had the same shape. All three now go through quoted heredocs. The
generated-bash lint gains untrusted-in-quotes and now also covers runtime
reference docs in skill directories (review/greptile-triage.md).

* fix: a Codex usage limit is its own state, not 'inconclusive; proceeding' (#3051)

The model probe matched only model and broken-install errors, so a usage or
rate limit fell through to MODEL_PROBE_INCONCLUSIVE: Codex's own message
(with the reset time) was dropped, the hint pointed at model config, and
every later skill re-probed for 30 s. The probe now returns
MODEL_QUOTA_EXHAUSTED (exit 4) on a failed, non-timeout call that names a
usage limit, rate limit, insufficient_quota or 429, relays Codex's line
verbatim and caches it for 15 minutes. Preflights map it to
CODEX_MODE: quota_exhausted (missing coverage, no further Codex calls), and
classifyOutsideReview reports a mid-run limit as unavailable (quota) with
its own troubleshooting anchor.

* test: record ship/review union sizes after the quota branch and issue template

* fix: Codex watchdog freezes the command before reaping its children

The bash-native watchdog (stock macOS, no timeout binary) ran pkill -P on
the command's children and then killed the command. Between the two, the
command continued past its killed child and printed output after its
deadline. Stop it first. The test's minimal PATH also lacked pkill, which
the watchdog uses to reap children (stock macOS ships it), so the orphaned
child held stdout open and the capture waited out its sleep.

* fix(autoplan): an oversize session journal is a hard too_large denial, not a retryable identity failure (#3050)

The guard capped journal reads at 32 MiB and reported a longer journal as
'identity', which the hook treats as deny-and-retry. A journal only grows,
so /autoplan could never enter Phase 1 in a long session, and the
troubleshooting row sent people chasing symlinks. Oversize journals now
report too_large as a hard cause that names the size and the supported
fallback (run the reviews by hand or start a new session).

* fix(deps): clear the weekly OSV findings (#3040)

Raise overrides to fixed releases: ip-address 10.7.3 (our own pin was the
vulnerable 10.3.1; reachable through socks in browse's proxy path),
fast-uri 3.1.8, hono 4.13.13, proxy-addr 2.0.8, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
1.31.0, sharp 0.35.5, and in lib/diagram-render dompurify 3.4.16 (bundled
by mermaid) and source-map-js 1.2.2; the render page is rebuilt. Three
advisories without a usable fix get justified, expiring ignores: braces
(build-time only, excalidraw -> sass -> chokidar; a test checks the page
carries no chokidar code), sprintf-js (roarr's constant-format logger) and
katex (needs pre-existing prototype pollution; fix outside mermaid's range).
osv-scanner with the repo config: no issues found.

* fix(autoplan): name a shell-built snapshot init as the cause of the missing-evidence denial (#3045)

The guard binds a phase entry only to a literal snapshot-init Bash call.
When the model resolved the tool path into a variable, chained or piped the
call, init ran and succeeded but the denial said 'Complete the existing
snapshot init step', which reads as already done, so the run gave up. When
no init binds but a Bash call looks like one, the denial now says the shape
cannot be bound and prints the literal re-run (answers reused:true). The
binding rule is unchanged, and the skill says to run init on its own.

* fix(browse): chain reads piped stdin synchronously, so Windows runs the flow (#3039)

On Windows, an awaited Bun.stdin.text() inside the CLI's un-awaited main()
let the process exit 0 before reading stdin: a replayed flow reported
success with nothing sent to the daemon. Read fd 0 synchronously (skipped
for a terminal); empty input now gets the server's usage error and a
non-zero exit.

* fix(browse): clearer config-mismatch refusal and a WebGL note for the macOS GPU flags (#3030)

A plain call refused because another session started the daemon with
--headed/--proxy was told to 'apply --proxy/--headed', flags it never
passed. It now says who started the daemon and offers both remedies. The
BROWSER.md env table notes that the default macOS GPU flags disable WebGL
and that GSTACK_DISABLE_GPU=off restores it for WebGL QA.

* fix(ship): skip Greptile triage when no PR exists yet (#3020)

/ship's first run on a branch dispatched a triage subagent only to learn
there was no PR. Step 10 now checks for a PR inline (gh's 'no pull requests
found') and records that Greptile runs on the PR once it exists; other gh
errors still dispatch so the child can report unavailable.

* fix(router): route only to loaded skills, and say when not to invoke (#3018)

The root router listed every skill and ended 'When in doubt, invoke the
skill'. Current Claude models follow that literally: they tried to invoke
skills a user had turned off in Claude Code's skillOverrides (which gstack's
own disabled_skills render cannot see), and borderline requests tipped into
full workflows. The router now routes only to skills in the session's
available-skills list and names when to answer directly; the CLAUDE.md
routing block skill-start offers says the same.

* fix: spawned sessions never auto-grant consent or publish off the machine (#3016)

Spawned sessions auto-choose the recommended option except for destructive
or irreversible choices. Main already withholds the artifacts-sync consent
prompt from spawned sessions; the remaining gap was any other prompt whose
recommended option grants a consent or syncs data off the machine. Every
spawned directive (skill-start's block, the escape sentence, the Conductor
deny reason and the AUQ-error fallback) now names that as irreversible. A
consent the user already gave interactively stays in force.

* test: fix the spawned-block slice and type the #3045 re-init events

* fix(redact): TypeScript types and JSX expressions are code, not env.kv secrets (#3048)

A credential-named parameter or prop with an unquoted code value
(`session: SessionState,`, `key={turn.requestId + turn.role}`,
`apiKey={settings.apiKey}`) cleared the entropy gate and blocked pushes as
a MEDIUM env.kv finding. One rule replaces the PR's two keyword heuristics:
a value that reads as a code name (no digits, word-like camelCase or dotted
parts) with a code terminator, or a brace expression of such names with no
quoted literal, is source syntax. Paired controls keep firing on quoted,
brace-wrapped, concatenated, YAML-bare and random-letter literals.

* fix(setup): refuse to register a hook that does not parse (#3032)

Claude Code runs gstack's hook shims through /bin/sh; a shim that does not
parse exits 2, which for a PreToolUse hook blocks the tool call in every
session until someone finds the file. Before any hook registration is
healed or written, setup now runs bash -n on each registered shim and a Bun
parse of its TypeScript entry, and stops with the file, line and fix. A
lean rewrite of the PR's idea (one gate block plus a test that runs it).

* fix(browse): Windows runtime roots start the server from the source checkout's bundle (#3026)

On Windows a host runtime root (~/.codex/skills/gstack and the other
env-var hosts) holds file copies of browse/dist and no node_modules, so
its server-node.mjs could not import playwright and every browser skill
died (the module-scope server.ts half was fixed in v1.91.19.0). setup now
records the source checkout in every runtime root's .source-path, and the
CLI runs that checkout's bundle when the adjacent one cannot reach
playwright. Verified by unit layout tests and the Windows CI lane, not
live on Windows.

* fix(copilot): on Windows, run bash blocks in Git for Windows Bash (#3047)

Copilot CLI on Windows ran gstack's extensionless helpers straight from
PowerShell, which opened an app picker, and bare bash can resolve to WSL.
The Copilot tool glossary (rendered into every Copilot skill) now says to
run each bash block in Git for Windows Bash by its full path and never to
translate a block into PowerShell. The PR's PowerShell repair skill and
README section are not taken.

* test: record ship's union size after the Greptile no-PR check

* fix: keep issue numbers out of model-read Copilot text; seed the new routing sentence in the autoplan fixture

* docs: Oct 6 fix-wave plan, reviewed through /autoplan

* fix(autoplan): every oversize-journal path reports too_large with a recovery that keeps the work

Review follow-up to the #3050 fix. The summed batch read and the narrowed
parent loop now report too_large with the real size instead of a plain
error naming a hard-coded 32 MiB. The denial names the size and the cap,
and gives the recovery that keeps work (/context-save, new session,
/context-restore, /autoplan) with a docs anchor. A test seam that can only
lower the cap replaces the 33 MiB fixture.

* test(autoplan): negative controls and more shapes for the shell-built init denial

* fix(redact): decide TS/JSX source syntax by file context, not by value shape

Review follow-up to the #3048 fix. The word-shape heuristic also exempted
real secrets made of words (API_KEY=VelvetRiverOrbitSunset; in a .env).
The scanner now takes the file path (ScanOptions.sourcePath): the pre-push
hook scans the pushed diff per file with its +++ b/ path, and gstack-redact
--from-file passes its path. Only in a TypeScript/JSX file is an unquoted
value after ':' or a JSX brace of names treated as source; the same line in
.env/YAML, or with no path, is scanned as a literal, and the jwt pattern
still fires in .ts files.

* docs: gstack's own CLAUDE.md routing block matches the new router wording

Live check (Claude Code 2.1.284): a skill set to "off" in skillOverrides
is absent from the session's skill list while its sibling is listed, and
both are listed without the override, so 'route only to skills in your
available-skills list' holds.

* fix(sync-gbrain): don't offer a call-graph build for a source with no code pages (#3029)

Step 3.5 offered --dream for any source with pages, including one that
holds only markdown (synced with gbrain's default strategy), where a build
cannot help, and the injected CLAUDE.md guidance told future sessions to run
--dream for any count: 0. On gbrain >= 0.60, code-def for an impossible
symbol answers .status (probed live against gbrain 0.60.96: ready for a
code source, out_of_scope for a markdown-only one). Step 3.5 now probes the
pinned source first, reports the cause instead of asking on out_of_scope,
and keeps today's offer when the probe is unknown (older gbrain, an error).
gstack's own sync uses --strategy code, so the PR's soft-delete claim does
not apply to gstack's path.

* fix(setup): register the hooks that parse, refuse the rest with file:line (#3032)

The landed gate stopped setup before any registration, so one unparseable
hook left every other hook unregistered. On the Claude install the canonical
root is the checkout Claude Code runs hooks from, so there is no staged swap
to abort: setup now registers the hooks that parse, refuses the ones that do
not with file and line, finishes the install and exits non-zero, saying it
is a gstack bug and that a skipped hook keeps running from the checkout.

bin/gstack-hook-check derives its list from setup's _hook_command_path calls
plus the autoplan phase-publication hook (a test keeps them equal), parses
each shim with its shebang's interpreter, and bundles each TypeScript entry
with its local imports (packages external) into a temp dir, so a broken or
missing import, or a missing entry, fails.

Co-authored-by: BenjaminDSmithy <BenjaminDSmithy@users.noreply.github.com>

* fix(auto-update): hold an update whose hooks do not parse, before the checkout moves

bin/gstack-session-update fast-forwards the live checkout before setup runs,
and Claude Code runs hooks straight from it, so setup's gate cannot protect
an auto-update. After the Bun floor check the updater extracts the incoming
revision with git archive and runs bin/gstack-hook-check on it; a failure
holds the update like bun-too-old, records hook-does-not-parse with file:line
in the update status, and the next session start says the current hooks keep
running. Fixture-remote tests cover a broken shim, a broken imported module
and a parseable control.

* fix(browse): chain with no flow is a usage error before any daemon boots (#3039)

Empty piped input, a terminal with no arguments, and a readFileSync(0)
error (EAGAIN, EOF) now print the chain usage with the cause and its
troubleshooting link and exit 1 before ensureServer(), instead of sending
an empty argument to a daemon the CLI booted for it. Tests run the real CLI
with no daemon and no browser, plus the stub-daemon flow.

* fix(browse): refuse a runtime-root CLI and checkout server from different builds (#3026)

A Windows runtime root runs the source checkout's Node server bundle through
.source-path. When the root's CLI and the checkout's bundle carry different
browse/dist/.version builds (the checkout was rebuilt without refreshing the
root), the CLI now refuses to start the server with both builds, the
./setup fix and its troubleshooting anchor. Unversioned dev builds are not
called skew.

Co-authored-by: ubay887 <ubay887@users.noreply.github.com>

* ci(windows): real isolated ./setup install, then a piped chain flow through the installed browse

windows-setup-e2e built the checkout but never ran ./setup. It now installs
the codex host into an isolated HOME (a runtime root copy with no
node_modules), then from an unrelated directory pipes a two-command chain
flow at a loopback page into the installed browse and asserts the page text,
and that empty piped input exits 1 with the usage error. Covers the
checkout-bundle path and the piped-stdin path end to end.

* test(lint): free text never enters a generated command (structural rule)

The generated-bash lint's untrusted-in-quotes rule (gh/glab/git/curl text
flags in double quotes only) becomes free-text-placeholder: any <placeholder>
anywhere in any command, in double, single or no quotes, and in heredoc
bodies (quoted or not), unless it is on the reviewed identifier allowlist
(test/helpers/placeholder-allowlist.ts) with the grammar a value must match.
Quoted-only identifiers (URLs, selectors, paths printed by gstack) must sit
inside quotes. Backslash-newline continuations now read as one command, so
a flag and its value on separate lines are still seen together.

* fix: reply, issue and spec text travel as agent-written files, never through a heredoc

Replaces the quoted-heredoc bodies with CEO-12's file mechanism: a bash
block creates a private mktemp file in the project's .gstack/tmp/ (kept out
of git through .git/info/exclude), the agent writes the text with its
file-write tool, and the next block posts with -F body=@file, --body-file
or "$(cat file)". A heredoc ends early at any body line equal to its
delimiter; a file has no such line. When the file was never written the
block refuses with the path and the command to send it by hand, and it
deletes the file after a successful post.

- review/greptile-triage.md: replies; the fetched JSON moves from fixed
  /tmp/greptile_*.json paths to a mktemp directory; REPO and PR are
  re-derived per block instead of read from a previous shell.
- Test-failure issues: title and body files, platform case on
  github/gitlab, assignee only when it is a valid login.
- /spec: one draft file feeds the audit hash, every redaction scan, the
  issue and the archive; the archive no longer expands <title>/<body>
  inside an unquoted heredoc; the decision-log JSON is built by jq from
  files.

Location verified against Claude Code 2.1.284 (Dockerfile.ci pin):
project-local .gstack/tmp is writable under acceptEdits with no prompt and
keeps mode 0600; $TMPDIR and the gstack state root prompt even under
acceptEdits.

* fix(ship): Greptile triage runs only when a PR exists; every other case says why

PR: unknown (gh missing, not logged in, a non-GitHub remote, or a failed
lookup) used to dispatch the triage child anyway. The Step 10 check now
tests gh, its login, the remote and the PR in that order, and every case
but 'PR: exists' skips the dispatch and records
'Greptile: not run (<reason>); runs on the PR once it exists'.

* fix: question-tuning commands carry no free text

The question log took the summary in single quotes and the preference write
took the user's own words; an apostrophe ended the quote and the rest ran as
shell. The summary is now a kebab-case slug (an identifier with a grammar),
and the optional free_text field is no longer passed from skills (the
binary still accepts it).

* fix(cso): Windows finds docker.exe only under known-folder roots and says transport is unsupported (#3028)

On Windows /cso looked for docker only in Git's directory and System32, so
Docker Desktop was never found and the gap read as 'not installed'. It now
resolves Program Files, Program Files (x86) and the Windows directory through
PowerShell's [Environment]::GetFolderPath (not the process environment),
checks each candidate's real path against those roots and rejects reparse
points. lib/cso/docker.ts admits only unix:/// endpoints, so a trusted
docker.exe reports 'native Windows Docker transport is not supported yet;
static assessment only'; one outside the roots is refused as outside the
trusted install locations, not overridable. Both carry an anchor. Native
named-pipe transport is not implemented.

* fix: sourced helpers share one self-locate block and fail loudly when they cannot locate themselves (#3024 rework)

The codex probe and the egress lib now carry one byte-identical block:
BASH_SOURCE under bash or %x under zsh, made absolute with $PWD, else a set
GSTACK_ROOT that holds the helper. Anything else (dash, sh, a shell that
cannot name the file) prints "gstack: cannot locate <helper> (shell: ...)"
with the docs/troubleshooting.md#sourced-helper-location URL and returns
before any bash- or zsh-only syntax. The Claude-only default path and the
$(pwd) fallback are gone.

The generated Codex preflight dot-sources the probe and, when it cannot load,
reports CODEX_MODE: helper_unavailable with the helper's own line instead of
falling through to not_authed. The class guard enumerates nested sources,
makes real resolver, auth, state-root and egress-home calls under bash and
zsh (absolute, relative then cd, bare name via PATH), covers dash and an
unknown shell, runs the full preflight, and lints BASH_SOURCE to the shared
block plus other bash-only constructs.

* fix(cso): a Maven or Gradle repository is Java, not Python (#3028)

With no supported stack metadata, preparation defaulted to Python and asked
a Java repository for requirements.txt. A root pom.xml, build.gradle or
build.gradle.kts now names the stack as Java (unsupported for runtime
preparation, so the prerequisite says so), and Python helper scripts or a
root requirements.txt beside it no longer make it Python.

* fix(browse): BROWSER.md says plainly how to enable WebGL; the mismatch refusal links Daemon discipline (#3030)

The GSTACK_DISABLE_GPU row now states the effect and the switch: set
GSTACK_DISABLE_GPU=off to enable WebGL (off is the only recognized value).
The reworded config-mismatch refusal links BROWSER.md's Daemon discipline
section. Free tests pin both.

* test(windows): name the B2, B4, B5 and B12 tests in the curated Windows lane

The runtime-root bundle tests lived in browse/test/config.test.ts and the
Copilot glossary test in test/host-config.test.ts, both excluded from the
Windows lane, so the two Windows-only fixes were never checked on Windows.
Move each into its own Windows-safe file (unchanged assertions) and list it,
the piped-stdin chain test and the /cso docker.exe discovery test as named
Windows coverage in scripts/lib/windows-curation.ts.

* fix: the free-text block exits loudly when mktemp fails; spec and redact tests follow the file mechanism

The redact resolver test, the #2679 mktemp guard test, the /spec invariant
and the spec secret-sink harness pinned the heredoc transport. They now pin
the agent-written file: the harness runs the draft-file block, writes the
draft the way the file-write tool would, then runs the real scan fence, with
every HIGH/MEDIUM/scanner-failure assertion unchanged.

* test: hostile payloads through the generated posting blocks, identifier grammars, every quoting shape

- The lint reads a whole command, so an unquoted multi-word placeholder is
  caught; negative controls cover double, single and no quotes, quoted and
  unquoted heredocs, continuation lines, and quoted-only identifiers used
  unquoted.
- Every allowlisted grammar rejects quote-breaking characters (and shell
  operators and whitespace when used unquoted); git accepts 'fix;id' and
  'fix`id`' as branch names, the ref grammar does not.
- Greptile replies, test-failure issues (GitHub and GitLab) and /spec filing
  and archive run from the real generated text with stub gh/glab: a body
  with backticks, $(...), an apostrophe and lines equal to EOF and the old
  heredoc delimiters arrives byte for byte, nothing in it runs, and the temp
  file is gone. An unwritten file is refused with its path and the manual
  command, and nothing is sent.

the previous text (which printed PR: unknown and dispatched).

* feat(ship): ship-measure runner for the measure-then-fix loop (A6)

scripts/ship-measure.ts owns /ship's diagnostic measurement of a red eval
case: per-kind aggregation (rule trials; behavior panels of 3, each at its
own 2 of 3 plus 90% of trials; judge outputs scored by 3-sample panels,
standalone judge ids accepted), one artifact directory per baseline,
repair round and trial, a diagnostic label with verdict null that refuses
the eval history dir, an estimated admission budget that reserves every
concurrent trial and reconciles actual cost, the ask-once rule, the
repair-round limit, the unmeasured skip and the per-case PR table.

Free-suite flakes (CEO-1): 'free' reruns one shard's exact file list N
times, rerun 1 alone as the baseline and the rest in parallel at
max(1, floor(cores / shard concurrency)), each with its own HOME, state
root and flake ledger, GSTACK_FREE_RETRY_FLAKY=0, under a wall cap that
reports a partial count. test:ubicloud --diagnostic runs the same on one
VM with the retry off.

bin/gstack-config gains the DX-7 keys with their CEO-9 defaults and
rejecting validators. Free tests drive every kind, the budget stop, the
unmeasured skip and the free reruns with fake runners.

* fix: a Codex usage limit is quota_exhausted, a plain 429 is rate_limited, and only Codex's own error lines count (#3051 rework)

The probe's quota signature used to treat any rate limit, "too many
requests" or 429 as quota, and read the whole output, which echoes the
prompt. Now only Codex's trailing ERROR: / stream error lines are read.
A usage-limit or insufficient_quota line is MODEL_QUOTA_EXHAUSTED (exit 4,
cached 15 minutes; quota wins over a 429 that names insufficient_quota); a
plain 429 is MODEL_PROBE_RATE_LIMITED (exit 0, state rate_limited, never
cached), reported as CODEX_MODE: unverified (rate_limited) so the review
still runs and decides.

The quota HINT says how many minutes gstack skips Codex and how to retry
now (GSTACK_CODEX_PROBE_RETRY=1 skips the negative cache for that probe, or
delete <state root>/.codex-model-probe), with the full troubleshooting URL.
classifyOutsideReview reads the same trailing lines: a mid-review quota is
unavailable (quota_exhausted), a mid-review 429 unavailable (rate_limited).
New gate row rate_limited and docs anchor codex-rate-limited; the quota row
documents the retry. Tests cover each line shape, the echoed prompt, exit
0, timeout, retry recovery, probe/classifier parity, and two fresh-shell
preflight blocks where the second makes no paid Codex call.

* ci: the eval image installs zsh, and the macOS lane sources the Codex probe from zsh

Dockerfile.ci adds zsh so the sourced-helper guard runs (and fails loudly
when zsh is missing) inside the eval container too. The macOS named
regressions job sources bin/gstack-codex-probe from zsh in an unrelated
directory and runs _gstack_codex_select_model exec (no paid call), then runs
the sourced-helper guard on the macOS runner. A free test pins both lanes and
runs the macOS step's script locally.

* test: deterministic regression for the Codex watchdog freezing the command before reaping its children

The existing stubborn-child test caught the reap-then-kill race only some of
the time (2 of 3 runs on the pre-fix watchdog). A pkill that sleeps after
reaping widens the window between reaping the children and killing the
command, so a watchdog that does not SIGSTOP the command first always lets
it print "late" after the deadline. Fails 3 of 3 on the pre-fix watchdog,
passes 3 of 3 on the current one.

* test: live codex smokes run codex in a private HOME and CODEX_HOME

codex-resume-flag-semantics and codex-e2e-sol-scope probe the codex CLI (the
latter at module load, in every free run), and every codex run writes
$CODEX_HOME/tmp/arg0, so with a real codex on PATH they wrote into the
developer's ~/.codex. Both now give codex a private HOME and CODEX_HOME and
remove it afterwards. A free test runs each file against a stub codex that
records HOME and CODEX_HOME and asserts neither is the caller's.

* feat(ship): a red eval runs classify, measure, fix, re-measure, gate once (A6)

Step 6 no longer stops at the first red paid eval: it reads the new lazily
loaded measure section and runs the loop for each red case, and Step 5
measures a failed free-suite shard (diagnostic reruns, retry off) before
the triage can call it pre-existing. The section states the diagnostic-
not-verdict rule, the per-kind table, the ask-once and named-red stops,
the unmeasured label and the honest-fix wording (observed k/n after fix
at <cause>). A free test pins the steps and their order in the generated
skill and checks every command and flag it names exists in the runner.

Ship's parity cap rises to 1.455 (measured 272,944 / 187,706 = 1.4541).

* docs(testing): diagnostic measurement is not a verdict; per-kind measure table (A6)

* test(ship): seeded-flake paid case for the measure loop (A6, periodic, behavior)

A fixture repo with no remote documents a single-case eval command and a
gate command, both free local stubs. queue-priorities claims trial slots
with atomic mkdir (reset per ship-measure round) and fails slots 2, 5 and
9 while src/priorities.js leaves its seed-shuffled list unsorted, printing
failure_cause and failure_detail that name the line. The paid case gives
/ship's generated Step 6 and measure section to a live session and asserts
it measured the case alone, fixed the named line without touching the
eval, re-measured at least 10 passing trials on the sorted file, and only
then ran the gate once; any question other than the spend question is a
contract violation.

A free test measures the fixture through the real ship-measure CLI: 7/10
unsorted, 7/10 after an unrelated edit with the gate still red (ENG-13's
negative control), 10/10 after the sort with the gate green.

* test(cso): the missing-scanner case points Docker at a dead socket

'an optional scanner prerequisite does not turn completed manual coverage
partial' assumed no usable Docker. On a machine with Docker and a pulled
gitleaks image the scan completed and the test failed (also on main). The
scan step now gets a DOCKER_HOST that cannot connect, which is the
prerequisite-missing condition the test describes.

* fix: Aside prompts travel as agent-written files, never inside the command

The open-ended reading recipe (browse, devex-review), scrape's fuzzy-intent
read and the shared web-research block put the model's question, query and
reply format inside a double-quoted _aside_exec argument, where backticks and
$(...) from page or repo text would run. The agent now writes the prompt into
a private .gstack/tmp file; the send block rebuilds the path from the printed
basename, refuses when the file is empty, and passes "$(cat "$PROMPT_FILE")".
The fixed read-only sentence stays in the shell source.

aside-driver pins move from the inline prompt to the file-based send block.

* fix: design briefs and approval feedback travel as agent-written files

Design briefs went into $D variants/generate/check as a double-quoted
argument, and approval feedback was spliced into a single-quoted echo of JSON,
so a quote, backtick or $(...) in either broke the command or ran. The agent
now writes each brief into a private .gstack/tmp file and the block passes
--brief "$(cat "$BRIEF_FILE")" (the CLI's --brief-file expects a JSON
brief, so plain text uses --brief). variants and the later check reuse the
same brief file. approved.json is built with jq -n from --arg values and
--rawfile feedback, so the feedback is data. The office-hours mockup flow
creates its brief and feedback files in one block.

design-approval-flow now writes the feedback file (with quotes, backticks and
$(...) in it) instead of substituting <FEEDBACK>, and checks the file is
removed after the save.

* fix: carve office-hours on every host to stay under the 160,000-byte ceiling

With its brief, feedback and research prompts moved into files, the inlined
office-hours render is 161,329 bytes on Codex and 160,302 on Factory, over
SKILL_BYTE_CEILING, so gen-skill-docs --host all fails. Per the C4 policy
(carve every skill whose external render exceeds the ceiling), office-hours
joins ship and plan-ceo-review in CARVED_ON_EVERY_HOST. The Claude render is
unchanged; external hosts read its sections relative to the installed skill.
external-host-carve and qa-lazy-sections now include office-hours in their
carved-skill lists.

* chore: regenerate after the free-text mktemp guard

* fix(codex): prompts and review focus travel as agent-written files

Co-authored-by: dgrant <dgrant@users.noreply.github.com>

Challenge and consult prompts, and the /codex review focus text, are written
by the agent into private .gstack/tmp files and fed to Codex on stdin or read
back with cat; no heredoc carries them. Consult's new and resumed runs share
one block (and one parser) so no placeholder stands in for the parser; a
resumed run reads its session id from .context/codex-session-id and checks it.
Adds the A3 group 2 placeholder allowlist block.

* fix(land-and-deploy): PR head repository and branch travel as data

Co-authored-by: dgrant <dgrant@users.noreply.github.com>

The branch check reads headRepository/headRefName from gh's JSON into quoted
shell variables; ls-remote, the confirm-first delete and the local delete use
those variables instead of model-substituted names. The postfail test now pins
the variable form it replaces.

* fix(ship): PR body drafts and rejected test paths are agent-written files

Co-authored-by: dgrant <dgrant@users.noreply.github.com>

The PR body is written into two private drafts (through ## Documentation, and
from ## Test plan on); the scan block splices Step 14.5's section between them
into the scanned temp file and deletes the drafts. Rejected test paths are read
from a written list, and paths outside the repository are skipped. Tests that
ran the old heredoc blocks now write the drafts and list first.

* fix(sync-gbrain): orchestrator flags must match an allowlisted grammar

* fix: the gbrain page save and external-host placeholders pass the free-text rule

The gbrain save block passed the whole page through a quoted heredoc inside
--content; the agent now writes it to a mktemp file and gbrain put reads it
on stdin. The Claude Code outside-voice runtime root and session mode, and
the feature slug, join the allowlist with grammars; unused entries are
dropped, and a test keeps every allowlisted placeholder tied to a real use.

* fix: skill-specific Aside research queries travel as prompt files

investigate, office-hours, plan-ceo-review, review, plan-eng-review,
design-consultation Phase 2, the shared test bootstrap (B2) and QA's test
bootstrap each carried their own _aside_exec call with the model-filled query
inside a double-quoted argument. Skills that already carry the Web research
block now give only the prompt-file text and use that block to create, write
and send it; design-consultation, the shared bootstrap and QA create the file
and send it with the new {{ASIDE_RESEARCH_SEND}} resolver, which is the same
send block the research section uses (read-only sentence stays in the shell).

aside-driver's B2 pin and qa-browser-preservation's bootstrap contract move
from the inline call to the prompt file and the shared send resolver.

* fix: prose design commands pass briefs and feedback as data

The DESIGN_SETUP command list taught `iterate --feedback "..."`, and
design-consultation's late-change and plan-design-review's slop-regenerate
lines showed `--feedback "<feedback>"` / `"..."`; design-shotgun's retry
showed `generate --brief "<brief>"` and `evolve --brief "<brief>"`. Feedback
now reads "$(cat "$FEEDBACK_FILE")" from an agent-written mktemp file
(the setup note says how), and the shotgun retry reads the variant's own brief
out of briefs.json with jq instead of retyping it.

* test: record parity sizes after the free-text file mechanism; refresh ship goldens

Measured union and skeleton sizes for ship, plan-eng-review,
plan-design-review, office-hours, design-consultation, review, qa, browse
and design-shotgun after every posting, prompt and brief site moved to
agent-written mktemp files; the ship goldens pick up the question-tuning
slug and the dropped free_text field.

* test: parity caps for the combined wave head (rounded up past the measured ratio)

* fix(plan-ceo-review): the mode handoff helper reminds the model to lead its chat with the line (#3038)

Periodic run 37272185151's auto-decide-preserved red replays as the Step 0E
handoff-line class: the model ran gstack-ceo-mode-handoff --auto, got the
exact line, then opened its chat with a heading and a paraphrase, so the
user never saw the auto-decide line (the terminal collapses tool output)
and the detector saw no outcome. The helper now prints a one-line reminder
on stderr beside the line; the detector accepts the line followed by that
reminder and nothing else. The ship Greptile check test reads its template
(test-of-test ratchet).

* test: every troubleshooting link in shipped code resolves, relative or full URL

* docs(todos): Oct 6 fix-wave follow-ups

* v1.91.32.0 release notes: Codex works from zsh, free text never enters shell commands, honest failures

* fix(plan-ceo-review): show the mode handoff line through a PostToolUse hook, not model compliance (#3038)

The stderr reminder beside the handoff line measured 1/10 on
auto-decide-preserved: the model still opened its chat with a paraphrase
('I've set review mode to HOLD SCOPE...'), so the user never saw the line and
the detector saw no outcome. /plan-ceo-review now declares a Claude-only
PostToolUse hook that shows the helper's exact line as a system message.
Diagnostic measurement on this head: 10/10, the line visible in every trial
while no trial's chat led with it. The reminder is reverted.

* fix: type the handoff hook's line filter

* fix: repairs from the integrated free suite

- The self-locate markers looked like heredocs to the pipe-deadlock guard;
  they are plain comment fences now.
- The spawned block keeps the canonical 'conservative non-destructive'
  phrase the cross-surface drift guard pins.
- The free-text block's mktemp refusal says 'mktemp failed', as every
  /codex temp file must.
- The batch transcript read reports sizes in MiB.
- docs/TESTING_INTERNALS.md gets a real 'Ship measure' heading for its
  anchor.
- The early-question harness admits /plan-ceo-review's handoff hook by its
  exact command (it only adds a system message); any other PostToolUse Bash
  hook is still refused.
- Paid file count and the unconsumed-file example follow the new seeded
  case; ship goldens refreshed.
- The CSO scanner test points Docker at a dead socket, so a machine with the
  pulled image does not scan.

* test(cso): a host with no Docker binary is also a no-scan host

The missing-image scan test failed on a Docker-less VM (docker is not
installed in a trusted directory). Every accepted message is a reason the
scan cannot run here; the not_assessed, helper-owned artifact assertions are
unchanged.

* ci: split the USERPROFILE assignment from export (SC2155)

* fix(browse): Windows runtime roots read .source-path as a native path (#3026)

The new windows-setup-e2e journey showed the installed browse could not
start its server. setup runs under Git Bash and wrote .source-path as an
MSYS path (/d/a/gstack); Node read it as \d\a\gstack on the current drive,
found nothing, and fell back to the root's own bundle, which cannot import
playwright. setup now writes cygpath -m, and the CLI maps an MSYS drive path
for installs written by an older setup. The journey prints the daemon and
startup logs when the chain fails.

* fix(ship-measure): defects from the parallel #3034 plan review

- A trial passes only with a JUnit testcase that executed and passed; a
  --case that selected nothing also exits 0.
- measure runs a no-cost --list preflight that must plan the case's own
  file before any paid trial.
- Diagnostic trials drop EVALS_CACHE_DIR/EVALS_CACHE_RUNTIME_ID, so they
  never reuse a stored judge pass or publish one the gate could reuse.
- Gate once: when CI runs the gate on push, the push is the gate run; the
  skill no longer also starts eval:bg:pr (a second paid gate).
- ubi-runner: down fails unless the VM is confirmed gone, and nothing
  sweeps other runners' VMs by default (UBI_GC_HOURS opt-in).

* test(windows): the seeded-flake fixture drives a POSIX shell stub, so it stays off the Windows lane

CreateProcess cannot exec the fixture's ./evals.sh shebang script (status
null on windows-free-shard 6). The measure runner is covered on Windows by
ship-measure.test.ts, which uses in-process fake runners.

* fix: the free-text block refuses an unset temp dir instead of writing at /

The rendered block ran mktemp "$_GT/..." with _GT unset in the portability
test; on Linux that fails at /, but Git Bash on Windows can write to its
install root, so the block went on (windows-free-shard 3). It now uses
${_GT:?}, so an unset directory always fails closed with the mktemp
message.

* test: pin the guarded ${_GT:?} temp-file form

* test: the Greptile check's gh stub uses a portable shebang

On Windows the absolute bash path has a space, so the stub never ran and
every case read 'gh not logged in' (windows-free-shard 1).

* test: the Greptile check runs with the native PATH and the gh stub first

The PATH-only stub bin could not run its stub on Windows (every case read
'gh not logged in'). Stub cases now keep the real PATH with the stub first;
only the no-gh case drops directories holding a real gh.
