* fix(plan-tune): reject never-ask on one-way ids at --write

--check already ignored those prefs; --write still stored them and
--stats counted them as a working NEVER_ASK. Refuse the write and
count leftover on-disk prefs as INERT_ONE_WAY.

* Fix: gstack-config get returns "" with exit 0 for keys that have no default

Skill preambles read configuration with

    VAR=$(gstack-config get <key> 2>/dev/null || echo "<default>")

and that fallback only fires on a non-zero exit. lookup_default ended in a
catch-all that echoed "" and returned 0, so for any key missing from the table
VAR came back empty and the default written right there in the preamble was
unreachable. The skill then branched on a value it never specified: "skip
entirely if QUESTION_TUNING is false", reached with QUESTION_TUNING="".

Four keys that skills actually read had no entry and took that path:

    question_tuning         -> callers assume "false"
    repo_mode               -> callers assume "unknown"
    team_mode               -> callers assume "false"
    transcript_ingest_mode  -> callers assume "off"

Each default above is the value the call sites already substitute in their own
`|| echo` fallback, so this only makes reachable what was already intended.

The catch-all now returns non-zero. That is deliberately scoped to the
unknown-key arm alone: keys whose default is intentionally empty still exit 0,
because "" is their real answer and their callers depend on it --
cross_project_learnings ("unset triggers the first-time prompt"),
redact_repo_visibility ("empty falls through to gh/glab detection"),
salience_allowlist, user_slug_at_*. Making every empty answer an error would
have broken those.

test/gstack-config-defaults.test.ts pins the class rather than the four
instances: it parses the case arms and asserts every `gstack-config get <key>`
site in the tree is covered, so adding a read without a default fails CI. It
also pins the exit-code contract in both directions. Verified failing against
the pre-fix script, where it names exactly those four keys.

* fix(redact): a typo'd subcommand no longer exits 0 having done nothing

main() recognised exactly two subcommands and let everything else fall through
to the stdin scan. On empty stdin that prints "(no findings)" and exits 0, so:

    $ gstack-redact install-prepush-hooks    # plural typo
    gstack-redact scan — repo UNKNOWN
      (no findings)
    $ echo $?
    0

No hook was installed, and the operator has every reason to believe the
credential guard is armed. A guard that silently no-ops must never exit 0.

Two smaller faults in the same dispatch, both of which lead people here:

- There was no --help handler, so `gstack-redact --help` fell through to the
  scanner. Piping a credential to it scanned the secret and exited 3.
- With no piped input and no --from-file, readInput() blocks on readSync(fd 0)
  until an EOF that an interactive terminal never sends. That prints nothing
  at all, so it reads as a hang rather than as "this is a filter, feed it".

Now: --help/-h/help prints usage and exits 0; an unrecognised positional
prints the offender and exits 1; a TTY with nothing piped in prints usage
instead of blocking. "scan" stays accepted, because the human output header
reads "gstack-redact scan — repo …" and that is what people type.

Usage errors exit 1, deliberately not 2 or 3. Those mean MEDIUM and HIGH
findings and callers gate dispatch on them, so a usage error exiting 2 would
be read as "medium findings — prompt the user". A test pins that.

Tests: 4 written failing first, then fixed. Full suite 7,722 pass / 0 fail.

* fix(browse): one ambiguous ref no longer kills the whole annotated screenshot

`snapshot -a` exits 1 with "Selector matched multiple elements" on most real
pages, so /qa, /canary and /land-and-deploy silently produce reports whose
screenshots do not exist. Plain `screenshot <path>` is unaffected.

Refs are built as getByRole(role, {name}) and disambiguated with .nth() when
role+name repeats. That disambiguation cannot fire for a node with NO accessible
name: the locator degrades to getByRole(role) with no name filter, and the count
driving .nth() is taken from the FILTERED aria snapshot while getByRole matches
the unfiltered DOM. Measured on a live page: the tree surfaced 2 unnamed
paragraphs, the DOM had 9. Landmarks (banner/main/contentinfo) and paragraphs are
correctly unnamed per ARIA, so this is the common case rather than an edge case.

boundingBox() then hits Playwright strict mode, and the catch allowlisted only
timeout/closed/Target/Execution-context messages — so the strict-mode error was
re-thrown and aborted every remaining annotation.

Two changes:

- `.first()` before boundingBox(), so an ambiguous ref draws a box on its first
  match instead of aborting. The heatmap path below has always tolerated this via
  a bare `catch {}`; annotate was the only path that could be killed outright.
- the catch no longer re-throws on unrecognised messages. A box we cannot measure
  is a box we do not draw, never a reason to lose the rest of the page. Set
  BROWSE_DEBUG to see what was skipped.

Also: `-o` passed without `-a`/`-H` was silently ignored (exit 0, no file), which
reads as "screenshots are broken" rather than "you forgot a flag". It now warns
and points at `browse screenshot <path>`.

Verified by rebuilding both ways against the same page with 51 refs present:
  before — "Selector matched multiple elements", no file written
  after  — exit 0, 229KB PNG

* fix(version-bump): missing or empty VERSION no longer repairs a fabricated 0.0.0.0 into package.json

repair now fails with exit 2 when the VERSION file is absent or empty
instead of folding to DEFAULT ("0.0.0.0") — which passed VERSION_RE and
regressed package.json below where it started. classify gains an additive
versionFileExists field so /ship can tell a real 0.0.0.0 from a fabricated
one. Re-derived from PR #2612 under the generated-file screening rule.

Fixes #2600 (repair half; the path-configurability half landed in v1.67 via #2531).

* fix(memory-ingest): --probe counts post-attribution, through the same gate --bulk uses

probeMode previously stat'd every walked file, so setup-gbrain gated its
silent bulk ingest on pre-filter counts that the write path would never
ingest (#2394). The attribution decision now lives in ONE shared gate
(sessionIsAttributable — cheap-parse: cwd extraction + memoized
resolveGitRemote, never a full page build) used by BOTH probeMode and
preparePages, so the two stages' post-attribution counts are structurally
identical. ProbeReport gains skipped_unattributed; the probe prints what it
excluded and --include-unattributed restores raw counts. The parity is
pinned at the prepare stage (probe post-attribution == transcripts reaching
import), deliberately NOT == final written.

Re-derived from PR #2612 under the generated-file screening rule; the
shared-gate design and the remote memo are additions from the plan review.

Fixes #2394.

* feat(browse): allow CPU and network throttling for performance measurement

Adds Emulation.setCPUThrottlingRate and Network.emulateNetworkConditions to
CDP_ALLOWLIST.

Motivation: diagnosing a real "uploads take 1-2 minutes" report, the only
machine available was a fast developer workstation. Client-side processing
measured 1.4s where the user experienced minutes, so the conclusion had to be
reached arithmetically rather than observed. Throttling would have let the
measurement reproduce the reporter's conditions directly.

Both fit the existing posture rather than widening it:
  - Emulation already allows setDeviceMetricsOverride, clearDeviceMetricsOverride
    and setUserAgentOverride, which are equally mutating and scoped to the tab.
  - Neither method reads page content. setCPUThrottlingRate affects only timing;
    emulateNetworkConditions constrains traffic rather than inspecting it, so no
    request bodies, headers or cookies are exposed. Both are output: 'trusted'
    because they return no page-derived data.

scope 'tab' for both, matching the surrounding Emulation entries.

* fix(session-update): lock pidfile records the live holder; hard TTL bounds every wedge (#2613)

echo $$ inside the backgrounded subshell recorded the PARENT hook's PID —
which exits immediately — so every subsequent session judged the lock stale
and rm -rf'd a LIVE holder's lock, letting concurrent updaters run over each
other. The pidfile now records ${BASHPID:-$(sh -c 'echo $PPID')} (macOS
bash 3.2 has no BASHPID; the sh child's PPID is exactly this subshell).

Staleness is now two independent detectors: PID liveness (as before, but
against the real holder), and a 30-minute hard TTL on the heartbeat mtime —
reclaimed regardless of kill -0, so a recycled PID or hung holder can't wedge
the lock forever. The holder touches the pidfile after the pull and after
setup, so a legitimately-slow run keeps itself alive. Empty and missing
pidfiles are respected inside the TTL window (the mkdir→echo race) and
reclaimed past it.

Fixes #2613.

* chore(browse): explicit windowsHide on every Bun.spawn site + census tripwire (#2575 residual)

Bun.spawn sites were structurally outside the windowsHide census (it swept
child_process bindings only). The runtime was already safe — native Bun hides
consoles by default and bun-polyfill.cjs defaults windowsHide !== false since
#2523/#2539 — but implicit defaults are exactly what regress silently. Every
Bun.spawn/spawnSync in browse/src now carries the explicit flag (harmless on
unix-only sites like Xvfb/xattr/open), and a second SWEEP in
windows-spawn-hide.test.ts fails CI on any new flagless Bun.spawn site.

* fix(gbrain): brain worktree advances on the daily sync — no more silently stale brains (#2516)

The daily pull refreshed only ~/.gstack itself, never the detached worktree
at ~/.gstack-brain-worktree that gbrain actually indexes — so after setup the
brain served stale pages forever unless setup-gbrain/sync-gbrain happened to
run. brain-sync --once now advances the worktree once per 24h behind an
ATTEMPT stamp (.brain-worktree-last-advance — a persistently-failing advance
warns once a day, not at every skill boundary), inside the existing run lock
and before any ingest step touches the worktree.

The new gstack-gbrain-source-wireup --advance-only is built for the
unattended cadence: git-only (no gbrain prereqs), pins every operation to the
managed worktree (refuses paths that are not worktrees of the artifacts
repo), refuses dirty worktrees, and never runs the force-remove recovery — a
cron path must not be able to delete local changes. A static pin keeps the
force-remove out. docs/gbrain-sync.md stops overclaiming the old cadence.

Fixes #2516.

* feat(memory-ingest): honor the per-remote deny/read-only trust policy (#2392)

Transcript ingest now respects the same trust store as code import — the gate
existed only in gstack-gbrain-sync's runCodeImport, so memory-ingest happily
ingested transcripts from deny-listed repos. preparePages filters prepared
transcript pages through ONE batch policy lookup (new 'get --batch' verb on
bin/gstack-gbrain-repo-policy — the script owns URL normalization; the client
adds repoPolicyTierBatch, one spawn for all distinct remotes, so large corpora
never pay a 10s-timeout subprocess per remote).

Outcomes match code-import semantics: read-only → clean skip
(skipped_policy_readonly), deny → counted refusal (skipped_policy_deny),
corrupted/unreadable store → HARD ERROR before any write (state, staging,
egress receipt, and import all untouched) with the recovery command named —
policy corruption must never read as successful ingestion. Artifacts are
never policy-filtered (their git_remote is a project slug, not a remote).

Fixes #2392.

* fix(config): repo_mode keeps its empty no-default semantics (#2611 follow-up)

The ported defaults table synthesized repo_mode → "unknown", but EMPTY is
load-bearing for that key: gstack-repo-mode treats any non-empty answer as a
user override and skips its own repo classification — the synthesized default
turned the classifier into dead code (REPO_MODE=unknown everywhere; caught by
test/gstack-repo-mode.test.ts via the wave's cross-agent blame protocol).
repo_mode joins the empty-is-real carve-outs (empty output, exit 0).

* fix(pair-agent): consent before killing a healthy headless daemon

The pair-agent headed switch spawned 'connect --force-restart'
unconditionally — auto-killing a live headless daemon (open tabs, cookies,
logins) in direct contradiction of the iron rule it sits beside ('only an
explicit --force-restart may kill a live daemon'). The CLI now captures
daemon liveness BEFORE ensureServer (which can itself boot a fresh daemon)
and relaunches only when the user passed --force-restart to pair-agent;
otherwise it prints the tab count and continues against the existing daemon.
The /pair-agent skill gains a matching one-way-door consent question
(template half rides the wave's template block).

* fix(gbrain-status): MCP scoping is per-project, and project-local beats user scope

hasRemoteOnlyGbrainMcp scanned EVERY project's mcpServers in ~/.claude.json,
so one project's remote gbrain registration reclassified broken local engines
as thin-client machine-wide. It now reads user scope plus only the cwd's
nearest-ancestor project key.

The precedence itself was verified empirically and hermetically (fake HOME +
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR fixtures, claude 2.1.233): with both scopes defining
gbrain, 'claude mcp get gbrain' reports Scope: Local config — PROJECT-LOCAL
WINS. Both in-repo consumers assumed the opposite; brain-cache's endpoint
resolution flips to nearest-ancestor-project-first, and the stale user-first
pin in brain-cache-roundtrip now pins the verified precedence. (The user-first
jq in the brain-sync preamble resolver gets the same swap in the template
block.)

* fix(slug): gstack-slug matches remote-slug's owner-repo canonical form (live misfile bug)

Found live during this wave's CEO review: bin/gstack-slug emitted
SLUG=garrytan for this garrytan/gstack worktree while remote-slug correctly
gave garrytan-gstack — decisions, timeline, ceo-plans, and learnings were
filing into the wrong project store (observed polluting Context Recovery with
another repo's decisions). Root cause: a stray empty ~/.git directory made
the walk-up crown $HOME as the outermost project root; the remote lookup ran
only against that root, failed silently, and the basename fallback cached
'garrytan' sticky. NOT worktree-specific — any strong marker on a non-repo
ancestor triggered it.

Fix: the walk now finds the outermost ancestor whose .git actually resolves
an origin remote and derives owner-repo with remote-slug's byte-identical
parse; marker-only ancestors keep anchoring the basename fallback but can no
longer shadow a real remote. A new cache self-heal recomputes the poisoned
shape (cached == basename of a marker root while a remote-bearing repo exists
below), preserving legit #2212 stickiness. Nested-repo walk-up, no-remote and
non-git fallbacks, and the SLUG=/BRANCH= eval contract are unchanged, pinned
by a 10-case parity suite. Store migration for pre-fix data is tracked in
TODOS.md.

* fix(brain-sync): per-record spool dir — the enqueue/drain race dies structurally

Producers appended lines to .brain-queue.jsonl while the drain re-read and
os.replace'd it; the in-code comment admitted a lockless append between the
re-read and the replace was lost. Locks and rename-rotation designs were both
reviewed and rejected (each retained a tail race); the shipped design is a
maildir-style spool: one FILE per record in .brain-queue.d/ (tmp + atomic
rename), the drain snapshots filenames, processes, and deletes exactly what
it snapshotted. Writer and drainer never share an inode — nothing to race.

Semantics: at-least-once (a crash between process and unlink re-drains;
downstream content-hash dedup absorbs duplicates); retained (privacy-held)
records keep their files; unparseable records are kept + warned, never
destroyed. Legacy .brain-queue.jsonl migrates atomically on the next drain
(crash-leftover .migrating files recovered too); status/drop-queue count both
surfaces; discover-new writes spool records and advances its cursor
per-record-written. The preamble's queue-depth line switches to spool count
in this wave's template block.

* fix(bin-context): native slug fallback walks up like bash gstack-slug

slugFromEnvironment derived the slug from the INNERMOST repo's origin while
bash gstack-slug walks to the outermost project root — nested/vendored repos
split their stores across the bash/native boundary (win32 hits the native
path constantly). The native fallback now ports _outermost_project_root
faithfully (strong/weak markers, outermost-strong-wins, 64-depth cap,
fixed-point termination) plus the full resolution order: env override →
walk-up → sticky cache with the #1125 self-heal → remote get-url → basename.
Twelve mirrored scenarios drive BOTH implementations against the same
fixtures and pin identical slugs.

* fix(next-version): git fallback queries the live remote, never mutates, and keeps 3-digit width

The degraded path counted every remote-tracking ref on every remote — stale
experiment branches and second remotes inflated version allocation, and a
failed base read flipped 3-digit repos to 4-digit slots. Now: ls-remote
--heads origin first (GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0, 5s timeout, zero local ref
mutation); on failure, local refs/remotes/origin ONLY with an explicit
stale-refs warning; a failed base read zeroes at the LOCAL version file's
width so a 3-digit repo allocates 0.0.1, not 0.0.1.0.

* fix(setup): hooks register the global-install path and re-point stale ones

Registering hooks from a dev worktree baked that worktree's absolute path
into settings.json — deleting the worktree left a dead hook erroring on
every session stop, and the presence-only dedup (list-sources | grep) could
never re-point it. setup's hook paths now route through _hook_install_path
(global install preferred, source dir fallback), and the new ensure-event
verb on gstack-settings-hook compares the registered command payload against
canonical: identical → no write, different → single atomic replacement
(never zero or two registrations). The plan-tune hooks had the same stale
pattern and get the same fix without re-triggering their consent prompt.

Also hardened: bun 1.3.13 turns an uncaught sync fs error in bun -e into a
SILENT exit 0 — the registrar's write path now catches, prints, and exits 1,
so a failed update can never report fake-green.

* fix(preamble): learnings capture is unconditional at completion (#2402)

43 of 44 learnings entries came from explicit /learn — the completion-status
prose read 'if you discovered a durable project quirk... log it', which
models treated as optional. The step now ALWAYS runs: review the session for
durable learnings, log each one, and state 'No durable learnings this
session' explicitly when the review comes up empty — an empty result, never
a skipped step. Re-derived from PR #2612 under the generated-file screening
rule.

* feat(scrape): untrusted-content warning on the page-fetching skills (#2441)

/scrape and /skillify consumed page content with zero injection guidance —
the CHANGELOG claimed coverage the skills didn't have. The warning now lives
in ONE exported const (UNTRUSTED_CONTENT_WARNING in resolvers/browse.ts),
embedded in the browse COMMAND_REFERENCE as before AND injected standalone
into both skills via the new {{UNTRUSTED_CONTENT_WARNING}} token — single
source, wording can never drift between surfaces. Re-derived from PR #2612
under the generated-file screening rule. (Structural isolation for
skillify-generated code is tracked as its own TODO.)

* fix(review): checklist paths resolve from the installed skill root (#2518)

/review Step 2 read .claude/skills/review/checklist.md — a path relative to
the TARGET repo, which only resolves in gstack's own checkout. Every
checklist/greptile-triage/TODOS-format reference (six across five templates —
two more than the issue named, same class) now uses the installed-root form
~/.claude/skills/gstack/review/... that the templates' other references
already use. The install-root class itself (non-default install dirs) is
#1882, deliberately its own PR.

* fix(pair-agent): one-way-door consent question before a daemon relaunch (template half)

The skill flow now checks daemon liveness before Step 4 and asks an explicit
one-way-door question (tabs/cookies/logins are lost) before passing
--force-restart — never proceeding on a vague reply. Pairs with the CLI-half
commit that stopped pair-agent auto-killing live daemons.

* docs(codex): resume does not amortize the ~21K session prelude (#2387)

Measured (#2387): every codex exec call pays Codex's session prelude, and a

never token savings. The skill now says so where the resume flow lives:
prefer one codex call per skill, batch questions into it.

* fix(upgrade): fast-forward first; reset --hard only behind a proved-safe gate (#2517)

/gstack-upgrade went straight to stash + reset --hard origin/main. Now it
tries git pull --ff-only --autostash first (the same policy session-update's
auto-upgrade uses). The destructive fallback runs unprompted ONLY when both
git status --porcelain AND git rev-list origin/main..HEAD are empty — a
clean tree with unpushed local commits is NOT safe, reset destroys them.
Anything else requires an explicit one-way-door confirmation that lists every
dirty file and unpushed commit being discarded.

Two resolver halves deferred from earlier wave commits: the queue-depth line

nearest-ancestor-project-first — matching the empirically verified Claude
Code precedence (project-local beats user scope) instead of the backwards
user-first assumption.

The v1.67 adversarial-review residuals section shrinks to the one item the

entries: skillify structural isolation (a prose warning is not a boundary for
page-derived generated code) and the slug store migration (pre-fix sessions
on stray-marker machines filed data under the degraded slug; post-fix reads
go to the correct store, so history needs a merge/alias).

Three suites pinned pre-wave behavior: browse's gstack-config test asserted
the old unknown-key ''/exit-0 shape (#2611 made it exit 1); the Windows-paths
suite pinned O_APPEND enqueue atomicity (the spool design satisfies the same
invariant via tmp + os.replace, one file per record — pinned in its new
form); and nine carve-guard skeleton ceilings absorbed the #2402
unconditional-learnings prose (~450B per skill), bumped with measured values

future template edit reverting to reset-first would fail nothing. Pinned:
the ordering, the FF_OK gate, and the unpushed-commits check. Also pinned

scrape/skillify (#2441) and brain-uninstall's spool-dir cleanup.

* fix: pre-landing review round — 8 auto-fixes + 8 accepted findings hardened

The ship review army (4 specialists + red-team + checklist, 29 findings)
produced 8 mechanical auto-fixes and 11 decisions; the accepted set:

- win32 slug parity completed: lib/bin-context.ts gains the remote-first
  outermost walk + degraded-cache self-heal the bash side got this wave —
  the two implementations now agree on the stray-marker live-bug shape,
  pinned by shared fixtures (multi-specialist 9/10 finding).
- probe honors the plan's bounded-read decision: 256KB prefix, extraction
  semantics mirrored from parseTranscriptJsonl so probe/prepare can never
  diverge on the same file (>1MB transcript test).
- policy normalize parity: bash normalize() now matches canonicalizeRemote
  on .git/-trailing and uppercase-.GIT shapes (7-shape corpus pinned two
  ways) — a deny for those shapes could previously slip the transcript gate.
- session-update reclaim is TOCTOU-safe (atomic mv-aside on both branches).
- settings-hook: unparseable settings.json errors instead of being replaced
  with {}; ensure-event keys on (event, source) so matcher changes update
  in place — never zero or two registrations.
- dot-only slug guard at both parse sites (hostile 'url = ..' can't escape
  projects/); enqueue tmp-file janitor (1h TTL, inside the drain lock);
  brain-sync .migrating never clobbered; drop-queue/status count .migrating;
  snapshot -o warning correct + surfaced in diff mode; version-bump test
  order-dependence removed; uninstall clears the advance stamp.

Deferred with record: slug heal-probe cost sentinel (P3 TODO), FF_OK
conflation (noted, misdiagnosis-only).

270 pass / 0 fail across the 10 touched suites.

* fix: adversarial round — the P0 finalize fail-safe and 12 hardened findings

Three adversarial passes (Claude fresh-context, Codex chaos, Codex structured
with P1 gate) on the full wave diff. Multi-source findings, all fixed:

- P0: finalize_queue is now explicit-delete-only — a record is unlinked ONLY
  when classification proves it staged or dropped; a classifier crash, a
  missing class file, or a malformed pulled .brain-privacy-map.json (which
  previously nuked the whole snapshotted queue, remotely triggerable) now
  retains everything, warns, and re-drains next run. load_privacy_map treats
  corrupt maps as retain-all, never as empty.
- next-version cannot silently drop a live claim: unreadable advertised refs
  get a targeted --depth=1 fetch + retry; still-unreadable claims surface as
  UNKNOWN warnings instead of duplicate-version silence.
- session-update lock: ownership-checked EXIT trap (a TTL-reclaimed holder
  can no longer delete the new holder's lock) + a 5-min background heartbeat
  so a legitimately-slow pull/setup is never reclaimed while alive.
- ensure-event collapses ALL same-(event,source) duplicates to one canonical
  entry; unique per-process tmp path; setup call sites surface (not swallow)
  the hardened refusals.
- memory-ingest: --limit counts only policy-permitted pages (denied records
  no longer starve permitted ones); --probe applies the same policy filter as
  --bulk (skipped_policy_* fields on the report).
- version-bump repair accepts a genuine literal 0.0.0.0 VERSION file.
- slug heal restricted to the stray-.git shape — package.json-anchored
  wrapper roots keep their legit sticky identity (#2212 preserved).
- brain-sync: idle fast path sees leftover .migrating records; unparseable
  spool records quarantine instead of warning forever; migration comment
  stops overclaiming the transition-window race.
- CDP throttling justifications document override persistence (callers own
  restoration), pinned in the allowlist test.

Deferred with record: deny retroactivity for already-ingested pages (P2 TODO,
same semantics as the code-import gate); legacy-migration tail race
(transition-window, requires pre-spool writers).

288 pass / 0 fail across the 10 touched suites.

* chore: regenerate SKILL.md docs + goldens (Windows-separator jq fix)

Pure generator output for the brain-sync block's jq ancestor match now
accepting backslash-formed Windows project keys — previously project-scoped
brains were invisible on Windows while the TS scope resolvers saw them.
Golden ship fixtures refreshed per the documented procedure.

* fix: codex verify-pass residuals — chunked cwd read, post-filter partial count, migrating depth

The verify re-review passed the P1 gate (0 P1s) and left three residuals,
all applied: transcriptCwdFromPrefix reads in chunks until one complete
record (4MB cap) so a giant first prompt can't truncate mid-JSON and break
probe/bulk parity; partial_pages derives from the FINAL prepared set instead
of the whole scanned corpus; the preamble queue-depth line counts leftover
.brain-queue.jsonl.migrating records like the status path does (regen + goldens included).

* chore: bump version and changelog (v1.68.0.0)

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

* docs: update project documentation for v1.68.0.0

BROWSER.md: fix the $B cdp example (positional JSON params, not --json;
depth is the real CDP param) and add the new perf-throttling examples
(Emulation.setCPUThrottlingRate, Network.emulateNetworkConditions) with
their clear-override counterparts. USING_GBRAIN_WITH_GSTACK.md: the
state-files table row for the sync queue now names the maildir-style
spool dir .brain-queue.d/ that replaced .brain-queue.jsonl this release.

* test: align memory-pipeline probe pins with the #2394 stage-count contract

The paid-tier E2E pinned the pre-fix contract (probe headline = raw
discovered). Probe now counts post-attribution — the same gate --bulk
uses — with an explicit unattributed-skip line. Adds the
--include-unattributed companion pin so all 9 fixtures stay accounted for.

* fix(next-version): batch missing-tip fetches — one bounded round trip, never a per-branch crawl

The targeted-fetch retry for branches whose advertised tip has no local
object ran ONE git fetch per branch (10s cap each). On a shallow clone
against a busy remote that crawls the network for minutes — CI's shard
deadline killed the free suite mid-file. Missing tips now collect into a
single batched shallow fetch (15s cap); refs still missing after the
batch (one unservable ref fails the whole transfer) get a capped
per-branch retry, and anything past the cap warns as an UNKNOWN claim
instead of fetching.

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

* test(next-version): pin the batched fetch + make the offline-contract tests hermetic

Two new G2 pins: N unfetched claim branches resolve with exactly ONE
fetch spawn (PATH-shimmed git counts invocations), and one unservable
ref no longer poisons the batch — live claims resolve via the bounded
retry while only the ghost warns UNKNOWN.

The #2545 offline-contract tests now run the CLI in a local fixture repo
instead of the repo's own checkout: the checkout path did a live
ls-remote against the real origin (operator-network-dependent, and the
CI shard-deadline hang). The online-contract test gains a succeeding gh
stub, so fallback:null is asserted deterministically instead of only
when the operator happens to be authed.

* test(redact-cli): derive the synthetic AWS-key fixture — no contiguous credential literal in source

The CI quality gate scans every ADDED diff line with the redact engine,
so the #2610 port's raw fixture literals failed the very gate they
exist to test. The fixture is now assembled at runtime; the scanner
still receives the identical bytes.

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

* test(next-version): pin the fixture's host via origin-URL sniff — kills the last environment dependence

The hermetic offline-contract fixture had no origin remote, so
detectHost() fell through to auth probes: a machine with glab authed
passed via the gitlab path while a bare CI runner read host:unknown
(offline stays false there) and failed. The fixture now pushes to a
local bare origin at a path containing github.com — the URL sniff pins
host:github identically everywhere, asserted explicitly in both tests,
with every git call still local.

Garry TanandClaude Fable 5 410b4928e7 v1.66.0.0 feat: test/evals/CI speedup — 90s truthful free suite, diff-billed evals, required Linux lane (#2593)
* ci: bump CI image Bun 1.3.10 -> 1.3.13

Matches the local toolchain and brings native `bun test --shard=M/N` /
--parallel to CI (needed by the free-test lane and shard runner work).

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

* ci: stop version bumps rebuilding the eval Docker image (cache key trio)

Three coupled fixes, atomic because any subset is worse than none:

1. Image tag keys on hashFiles(Dockerfile.ci, bun.lock) — package.json is
   out: its version field changed on 60/60 recent commits, forcing a ~2min
   image rebuild per PR for a dependency set only bun.lock determines.
2. ci-image.yml now pushes that same content-hash tag (previously only
   :latest/:sha, so the weekly prebuild never warmed the tag the eval
   matrix actually looks up) and both eval workflows get registry layer
   cache (cache-to export gated to same-repo runs; fork tokens cannot
   write GHCR).
3. Dockerfile bakes /opt/node_modules_cache/.bun.lock and the runtime
   Restore-deps guard diffs bun.lock instead of package.json — otherwise
   every version-only bump made all 14 matrix jobs fall back to a live
   bun install, which is slower than today's behavior.

Worst-case failure mode is self-healing: a missing tag or cache falls
back to exactly the previous rebuild-and-install path.

* ci: stop double-running lint + skill-docs on every PR commit

Both fired on unrestricted push AND pull_request, so each PR push ran
them twice (12 duplicate (headSha, workflow) pairs in the last 200 runs).
push is now main-only; pull_request covers PR branches.

* ci: run actionlint from the prebuilt image (16s -> ~2s)

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

* ci: right-size five single-core jobs to ubicloud-standard-2

actionlint, skill-docs, version-gate, pr-title-sync, and the evals report
job never exceed one core; standard-8 was ~4x the cost for zero wall-clock.
build-image and the eval matrix keep standard-8.

* ci: fix workflow_dispatch concurrency collisions (head_ref || run_id)

head_ref is empty on workflow_dispatch, so every manual dispatch of these
four workflows shared one empty-suffix group and cancelled each other.

* ci(windows): cache bun installs; run the curated suite, not a hand list

- actions/cache on ~/.bun/install/cache keyed on bun.lock (install was
  35-45s of both 55-64s jobs, all network) and Bun pinned to 1.3.13 to
  match the other lanes.
- windows-free-tests now runs `bun run test:windows` (the runner's
  --windows-only curation) instead of a hand-listed 13-file subset that
  had drifted from the registry it sampled. POSIX-bound tests get
  excluded in ONE place (the curation patterns), not two.

* evals: retry 1, not 2, on every paid path

Measured on the llm-judge shard: --retry 2 amplified 25 tests into 46
executions (+84%), with retried runs at 138s vs a 10-12s baseline (429
backoff), and a permanently-failing test paying 3x. One retry still
absorbs one-off flakes; chronic flakes become visible fix-work instead
of silent wall-clock.

* evals: split skill-e2e-review into three per-file CI shards

Bun runs describe blocks as concurrency barriers, so the e2e-review CI
job executed its tests serially: 741s of an 860s PR critical path for
tests whose slowest member is 224s. The per-file matrix is the repo's
parallelism unit, so the split moves:

- Retro E2E + retro-base-branch  -> test/skill-e2e-retro.test.ts
- review/ship base-branch + Review Dashboard Via Attribution
                                  -> test/skill-e2e-review-attribution.test.ts
- sql-injection / enum-completeness / design-lite stay in
  test/skill-e2e-review.test.ts

One 741s job becomes three ~180-250s jobs. Locally the worst paid shard
drops from 1705s (94.7% of the 1800s kill) to under 700s. Test names,
bodies, suite strings, and eval-store collectors are unchanged, so
baselines carry over. Matrix rows added to both eval workflows
(attribution is gate-only, so no periodic row); the report job's
hardcoded runner count is gone (drift-proof).

* test: gate security-bench on SECURITY_BENCH=1, not model-cache existence

The existsSync gate ran ~12s of ONNX inference (plus a HuggingFace
dataset fetch) on every free-suite run on any dev box that had ever
warmed the classifier, while CI (no cache) silently skipped it. Now
explicit opt-in: SECURITY_BENCH=1 bun test browse/test/security-bench.test.ts.

* test: watchdog E2E in 1.5s instead of 22.7s (tunable poll interval)

server.ts gains BROWSE_WATCHDOG_INTERVAL_MS (floor 50ms, default 15s
unchanged). The #994 stay-alive test runs a 250ms tick and waits for the
stay-alive log line instead of blind-sleeping 2s + 20s past the
production interval.

* test: dedupe coverage gates; route both walks through skill-census

skill-coverage-floor duplicated two matrix assertions (registry
completeness, gate-tier floor) with a DIFFERENT hand-rolled directory
walk — matrix's skipped nothing, floor's skipped node_modules/docs/test.
Two 'same' gates disagreeing on the census is the bug class
test/helpers/skill-census.ts was written to kill. Registry assertions
now live in matrix only (with floor's better error message), both files
walk via skillCensus().authoredSkills, and floor keeps the per-skill
structural checks it owns.

* evals: EVALS_JOBS for shard processes; explicit within-shard concurrency

EVALS_CONCURRENCY was overloaded: the legacy bun-test path used it as
--max-concurrency (default 15) while the sharded runner read it as the
process count — exporting the legacy value gave 15 concurrent Bun
processes each spawning claude (the 429 storm). Now: EVALS_JOBS = shard
processes (default 4); EVALS_CONCURRENCY = bun --max-concurrency inside
a shard (default 4, explicit in shard args — omitting it made
within-shard parallelism silently differ from the legacy path). Stale
49/59 header math replaced with the live-count rule.

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

* evals: enforce detach-timeout floor from the live shard census

New free tripwire: eval:bg:gate / eval:bg:periodic --timeout must cover
ceil(shards/jobs) x shard-timeout x 1.05, recomputed from the actual paid
test census every run. Hand-derived numbers go stale every time a paid
file lands — the review split just proved it: periodic's 28800s dropped
BELOW its new 32130s worst case (raised to 32400s here). An undersized
watchdog kills healthy runs and the tail reports never-started.

* evals: preflight ping once in the sharded parent, not per shard

The Anthropic fail-fast ping ran at module load in every paid test file
importing e2e-helpers — ~30 paid claude -p calls (30s timeout each) per
full sharded run for one bit of information. The parent now pings once
before spawning shards and sets EVALS_PREFLIGHT_OK=1; the module-load
path honors the flag. Extracted to test/helpers/anthropic-preflight.ts
(injectable spawn seam) with regression pins in both directions: the
flag must skip, its absence must ping exactly once, dead API must throw.

* evals: split touchfiles into pure data + selection logic + facade

touchfiles.ts listed ITSELF in GLOBAL_TOUCHFILES, so adding one test's
dep entry forced the full ~$38 / 30-45min suite — measured on 21.9% of
recent commits (42/192). The self-reference existed because data and
logic shared a file: any edit COULD be a selection-logic change.

Now: touchfiles-data.ts (the four maps, literals only, zero imports —
the future map-diff target), test-selection.ts (matchGlob/detectBase
Branch/getChangedFiles/selectTests), and touchfiles.ts as a re-export
facade so all ~12 import sites are untouched. GLOBAL_TOUCHFILES drops
the self-ref, adds test-selection.ts (logic stays maximally
conservative), and TEMPORARILY adds touchfiles-data.ts until the
map-diff change lands. New free test pins the literal-only property
(comment-aware state-machine scan with a self-test) and facade export
parity (===), so neither can silently rot.

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

* test: free runner — strict output, parallel execution, stable shard indices

Three coupled changes to scripts/test-free-shards.ts:

1. STRICT OUTPUT: runFreeShard streams through the paid runner's
   BunTestOutputClassifier — exit 0 without bun's 'Ran N tests across M
   files' summary, with (fail) lines, or with a wrong file count is a
   FAILURE (anti-truncation backstop at the runner layer), plus an
   external wall-clock timeout that SIGKILLs the process group
   (timed-out distinct from failed; exit 124 vs 1). Also fixes a latent
   shard-bleed: file selectors now use exactTestFileSelectors (relative
   paths were substring filters that matched sibling roots).

2. PARALLEL: full-suite mode is one 'bun test --parallel' invocation
   (Bun 1.3.13). Measured semantics recorded in the header: per-file
   worker isolation, standard summary, and mid-suite process.exit
   surfaces as a crashed-worker FAIL with exit 1 — strictly safer than
   serial, where the same exit truncates silently. No static weight
   lists; --shards M --shard i keeps deterministic hash partitioning for
   CI matrices (native --shard rejected: round-robin renumbers when
   files land). Spawned shards get throwaway GSTACK_HOME/TMPDIR so
   parallel shards can't contend on real state. Per-shard epilogue
   prints files/seconds/status every run.

3. Stable indices: assignFilesToShards no longer drops empty shards, so
   a shard's index depends only on the file hash and requested count —
   an empty CI matrix slot is a fast no-op success, not a renumbering.

package.json 'test' now delegates to the runner (TEST_ROOTS becomes the
single source of truth for roots; slop:diff tail preserved; the runner
inherits the 30s per-test timeout the old glob passed inline).

* ci: Linux free-test lane — ~400 files get CI coverage for the first time

New required, secretless free-tests job: the canonical runner's single
'bun test --parallel' invocation with strict-output classification on
ubicloud-standard-8. The free suite previously ran on NO Linux CI — only
a curated Windows subset ran anywhere — so every 'tests pass' claim
about main rested on contributors running them locally.

Secretless by design (no API keys; fork PRs finally get real test
signal) and pinned by test/free-tests-workflow-wiring.test.ts: canonical
runner invoked, zero secrets.* references, pull_request never
pull_request_target, and matrix-count/--shards agreement if anyone
switches to the sharded fallback.

* evals: map-diff selection — a touchfiles-data edit runs only what changed

Editing the eval dep-list data no longer forces the full ~$38 /
30-45min suite (measured on 21.9% of recent commits). When
touchfiles-data.ts is in the diff, selection now evaluates the BASE
version (git show -> mkdtemp -> spawnSync bun child printing the four
maps as JSON — sync because e2e-helpers selects at module scope) and
JSON-diffs per key: added entries, edited dep lists, and tier flips are
selected; keys removed from all maps are reported, never silently
dropped; a GLOBAL_TOUCHFILES edit still runs everything.

FAIL-CLOSED with named causes: missing-base-ref, git-show-failed,
import-failed, shape-mismatch each degrade to run-all and print
'selection: global — touchfiles-data changed (<cause>)' (D9 — silently
expensive beats silently wrong, but never silently). eval:select prints
'selected N of M, reason: ...' + removed tests; --base scopes the
map-diff too.

The temporary conservative GLOBAL entry for touchfiles-data.ts is gone —
its changes route through the map-diff. 23 new free tests: pure-core
fixtures, selectTests wiring incl. a poison-injection guard, and a temp
git repo exercising every fail-closed cause end-to-end.

* evals: selection sees uncommitted work; git errors fail closed

getChangedFiles is now the deduped union of committed (base...HEAD),
staged+unstaged (git diff HEAD), and untracked (git status --porcelain
--untracked-files=all) — an agent that edits files and runs evals
BEFORE committing no longer gets the full $38 suite every time because
the committed diff looked empty. Clean tree still returns [] (run-all
by design for main-branch/periodic runs).

Git failures now THROW with the failing command, stderr, and 'set
EVALS_ALL=1 to deliberately run the full suite' — the old return []
silently became run-all, which is silently expensive. 11 new free tests
cover every source, dedupe, quoted paths, and both failure shapes via
an injectable spawn seam.

* test: revert GSTACK_HOME injection in the free runner — shared mutable state

The first full run under the strict runner surfaced 12 failures with one
root cause: injecting a single throwaway GSTACK_HOME per invocation made
6,900 tests share a MUTABLE scratch home. gstack-config tests wrote keys
into it; relink and update-check tests then read them (e.g. relink saw
skill_prefix left behind by a config test and produced prefixed names).
All 12 pass when run directly.

TMPDIR isolation stays (mkdtemp inside it is still per-call unique).
Tests needing GSTACK_HOME isolation mkdtemp their own per test — the
repo convention — and hermetic-env covers E2E children. The env-dump pin
now asserts GSTACK_HOME passes through UNTOUCHED so the injection can't
come back.

* test: rebase parity baseline to v1.64.0.0; fix capture-vs-check drift

The parity ratchet had quietly failed for 7 skills — v1.58-v1.64 growth
landed past the v1.57.7.0 anchors and nothing caught it because this
test had no CI lane (verified pre-existing: SKILL.md content is
byte-identical to origin/main). Same rebase protocol as
v1.53->v1.57.7.0; old baseline retained for the audit trail.

Root-caused a second latent bug while rebasing: captureBaseline recorded
SKELETON-ONLY bytes while the checker compares UNION bytes (skeleton +
carved sections/*.md), so a fresh capture read carved skills at ~2x
ratio (ship: 82KB captured vs 183KB checked). captureBaseline now takes
sectionedSkills and records unions for carved skills — capture and check
measure the same thing, so the NEXT rebase can't hit this. Four
CARVE_GUARDS skeleton caps re-ratcheted to current +headroom
(plan-ceo 92K, plan-eng 70K, office-hours 100K, design-consultation
70K), annotated inline.

* fix: package.json version matches VERSION (1.64.0.0)

v1.64.0.0 shipped with VERSION bumped but package.json left at 1.63.0.0
— the 'package.json version matches VERSION file' test fails on
origin/main today. Nothing caught it because that test had no CI lane
until this branch's free-tests job.

* test: fix variants-retry-after HTTP-date flake (TODOS P2)

toUTCString() truncates to whole seconds, so a +3000ms Retry-After date
could mean an effective wait of ~2001ms — flaking against the 2500ms
assertion floor ~1-2 in 9 runs under suite load. +4000ms puts the
truncation floor at 3001ms with the assertion floor safely below it.
Pulled forward from U4 because the free-tests lane is now a required
check and this flake would randomly block PRs.

* test: skill-fixture helper — extract SKILL.md sections, don't copy files

extractSkillSections (fence-aware H2 scanner, loud-throw on missing
sections with available-heading list), extractSkillBody (drops the
shared generated preamble), extractSkillHead (frontmatter + first 30
lines, for routing fixtures). Pinned section lists per consumer, and
free-tier real-skill pins so a gen-skill-docs heading rename fails the
FREE suite instead of a paid run. skill-fixture.ts joins
GLOBAL_TOUCHFILES (fail-safe polarity: over-select).

* test(evals): review E2E fixtures extract sections — 1871 -> 207 lines

CLAUDE.md's extract-don't-copy rule, applied: the three review fixtures
carry only the sections the sql-injection/enum/design-lite prompts and
judges exercise (89% cut). Full-file copies made claude -p read 1871
lines per test — the direct cause of the 1705s worst shard (94.7% of
the 1800s kill).

* test(evals): retro E2E fixtures extract sections — 1821 -> 757 lines

Keeps every section the retro flow exercises incl. base-branch detect;
drops preamble, Global Retrospective Mode, Compare Mode (58% cut).
retro-base-branch was the single slowest CI test at 224s.

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

* test(evals): review-army fixture extracts sections — 1871 -> 650 lines

CS1's set plus Step 1.5 (PLAN COMPLETION AUDIT machinery) and Step 4.5
(army dispatch, quality_score, findings schema) that the 7 army tests
assert on. Pin test guards the three load-bearing strings.

* test(evals): skillify fixtures via extractSkillBody — 63-83% smaller

Tests follow all 11 skillify steps, so the whole body stays; only the
shared generated preamble drops (skillify 1239->453, scrape 958->167).

* test(evals): context-skills fixtures via extractSkillBody — 74-82% smaller

context-save 1037->267 lines, context-restore 952->168; the 8 tests
exercise full save/restore/list flows so the body stays, preamble drops.

* test(evals): opus-47 discovery fixtures via extractSkillHead — ~95% smaller

Routing/fanout tests only read frontmatter + opening lines of the 14
installed skills (review 1871->54, office-hours 1706->80).

* test(evals): codex runner gains sections option — review variant 88% smaller

runCodexSkill/installSkillToTempHome accept sections?: string[] routed

lines). codex-discover-skill deliberately keeps the FULL copy — its
stderr assertions validate that the real generated artifact loads.

* test(evals): routing fixture installs skill HEADS, not ~18 full SKILL.md

Routing reads frontmatter only; extractSkillHead per skill (root

site: one fixture dir holding ~18 full skills.

* evals: parent-side shard skipping — a one-test diff runs 3 of 44 shards

The sharded runner spawned every shard regardless of diff; only the
child self-skipped, so a typical single-skill change still paid 44 Bun
boots + container-equivalent setup for shards with zero selected tests.
The parent now computes selection once (mirroring e2e-helpers exactly:
EVALS_ALL -> run-all, empty union -> run-all, git errors propagate the
fail-closed throw) and drops shards where no selected test name maps in.

Mapping = quoted E2E map keys in the file's source UNION keys whose dep
list registers the file (constructed-name families need the second
direction). FAIL-OPEN everywhere it matters: run-all, non-skill-e2e
files, unreadable source, zero mapped names all keep the shard — the
child filter stays authoritative, so a parent bug can only run extra.

New taxonomy status skipped-by-diff (never conflated with
never-started); selection banner prints once; --list is selection-aware.
C6 lands in the same commit: a HARD tier-alignment test — every paid
skill-e2e file must be parent-mappable or provably fail-open-safe.
Note: this change-set's 14 dep-list registrations in touchfiles-data.ts
rode along in f945c841 (concurrent-agent staging); they belong to this
change logically.

Demo: selection of one test -> 'running 3 of 44 shards, 41
skipped-by-diff'. 13 new $0 tests via injected seams.

* evals: fix context-save-list test that was 0-for-26 ($5.28, zero passes)

Disposition for the eval store's only permanently-red test. Root cause:
the hide-other-branches assertions scanned the FULL output surface
(incl. bash tool_results), so any agent that ran ls on the checkpoints
dir — the natural first step of a list flow — surfaced all three seeded
filenames and failed, even when its user-facing listing filtered
correctly. The test punished the agent for looking at the directory.

The hide-assertions now scan the agent's FINAL TEXT (the listing the
user sees); showsMain keeps the broad surface for its documented reason.
Validated live in the final gate run rather than quarantined: the test
guards real behavior (branch filtering) and the assertion was the bug.

* test: wire 12 orphaned test files into the free suite (D3a)

ios-qa/daemon/test (10 files), ios-qa/scripts/gen-accessors.test.ts, and
browser-skills/hackernews-frontpage/script.test.ts ran under NO script
or CI — written coverage catching nothing. All 174 tests green on
arrival (4.6s), zero quarantines needed. TODOS P2 closed: main wired
design/test in v1.64, the variants-retry-after flake it named is fixed
on this branch, and this commit lands the remaining orphans.

* test: supabase-provision runs in-process — 16.5s -> 0.45s

bin/gstack-gbrain-supabase-provision (482-line bash) becomes a 26-line
bun-shebang entry over a new importable lib/gbrain-supabase-provision.ts
with an injected-deps seam (fetch/env/stdout/sleep — D7: args, never
env-mutation-before-import). The 33 spawn-per-test cases run in-process
against the same Bun.serve mocks; exactly one spawn smoke keeps the
shebang/CLI/receipt contract covered.

Byte-compat proven by a 25-case differential harness (old bash bin from
git vs new, same mock): stdout, stderr, exit codes identical across all
subcommands, JSON/plain modes, and error paths. Egress receipts stay
per-attempt, receipt-before-send, fail-closed (scanner updated:
SHELL_SINKS -> MODULE_SINKS). No-op sleep injection makes retry/backoff
paths instant.

* evals: kill the 3,372-line zombie monolith; revive 4 never-run tests

test/skill-e2e.test.ts survived the v1.56 split as a zombie: the paid
glob needs the skill-e2e-* hyphen, so with EVALS=1 NOTHING has executed
it for ~8 releases — and it held the ONLY implementations of four
map-registered tests: review-coverage-audit (gate), plan-eng-coverage-
audit (gate), ship-triage (gate), ship-idempotency (periodic). Three
gate tests silently never ran — the exact 0%-execution class this
branch exists to kill.

Rehomed into test/skill-e2e-coverage-audit.test.ts, -triage.test.ts, and
-ship-idempotency-sdk.test.ts with bodies byte-identical modulo collector
wiring and fixture extraction (drift observed in the skills since v1.56
is DOCUMENTED in each header, not fixed — their first paid run in 8
releases must attribute failures to drift, not to this move). All 24
other monolith names were true duplicates of the split files — dropped
with the monolith. Matrix rows added to both eval workflows; the paid
glob's zombie-exclusion is now a commented regression pin.

* test: fix two parallelism-exposed flakes (probe re-run, live-tree census)

Both pass solo and on main but flaked under the parallel runner:

1. gstack-brain-context-load probed 'gbrain --version' PER QUERY with a
   500ms budget — a cold probe on a saturated box timed out (observed
   505ms), branding gbrain 'missing' for one query while siblings
   passed. The probe is now memoized (availability can't change
   mid-invocation) with a generous one-time 5s budget; query calls keep
   the tight timeout.

2. skill-size-budget's catalog estimate read the LIVE tree, so a
   concurrent worker's transient skill-shaped scratch dirs exactly
   doubled it (8356 vs 4177). The ratchet now counts git-TRACKED skills
   only — the catalog that ships, immune to sibling workers.

* evals: demote 4 expensive posture tests to periodic (D2a)

design-consultation-research ($0.91/304s) and -preview ($0.89/481s) —
the two most expensive gate tests — plus office-hours-forcing-energy
(LLM-judge posture score; its sibling was already demoted) and
cso-full-audit (250s/$0.57; the targeted cso tests stay gate). Saves
~$8-12 and 10-15 min per gate run. The plan-*-finding-floor tests stay
gate deliberately: cheap insurance on the most-edited skill surface.
Housing files have no whole-file self-gates, so the runtime E2E_TIERS
filter handles both tiers; tier-alignment tripwire green.

* evals: judge default Sonnet -> Haiku 4.5 (D1a)

The 25 doc-quality judges are rubric-scoring calls — a duty Haiku is
already proven at in this repo (pty hung/working classifier,
first-task-scaffold, hermetic-canary). Tests needing a stronger judge
pass a model explicitly. Note: eval-store judge costs were hardcoded
synthetic (0.02), so no baseline distortion. Re-baselined by the
periodic run in this branch's final verification.

* evals: SDK runner default Opus -> Sonnet (D1a)

agent-sdk-runner defaulted to Opus 4.7 while session-runner (the claude
-p path) defaulted to Sonnet — an inconsistency between the two runners,
not a decision anyone made. Unpinned tests were implicitly asserting the
expensive model. The 30+ tests that genuinely need Opus already pin it
via opts.model. Re-baselined by the periodic run in this branch's final
verification; regressors get explicit Opus pins.

* docs: CLAUDE.md tells the truth about the free suite; make-pdf gate is macOS-only

The '<2s' claim was off by two orders of magnitude (measured 454s serial
at v1.63; ~90-100s now under the parallel runner), and the bare
'bun test' guidance walked the whole repo, loading paid eval files and
missing the strict classifier. Commands now say 'bun run test' with real
numbers, document the strict-output invariant, the EVALS_JOBS /
EVALS_CONCURRENCY split, the computed detach-timeout floor, and the
required free-tests lane. make-pdf-gate drops its Linux leg (redundant
with the free lane running make-pdf tests on every PR); macOS rendering
coverage stays.

* test: catalog ratchet reads committed content; SDK unit pins follow D1a default

Two follow-ups from the verification runs:

1. skill-size-budget's catalog estimate still flaked under --parallel
   (8356, then 8041, vs 4177 solo) even after filtering to tracked
   skills: sibling workers REGENERATE real SKILL.md files mid-run, so
   any live-tree read is a moving target. The ratchet now reads each
   tracked skill's frontmatter from git show HEAD: — the catalog that
   ships — which no concurrent worker can perturb.

2. agent-sdk-runner unit pins asserted the old Opus default through the
   default-flow fixtures; flipped to the Sonnet default (the explicit-
   override pass-through pins keep Opus — that path is unchanged).

* fix(browse): SIGKILL abandoned Chromium on close-race timeout (suite wedge)

close()'s launched-mode path raced browser.close() against 5s and on
timeout ABANDONED the child: this.browser nulled, process handle lost,
Chromium alive holding keep-alive connections into test servers whose
stop() then waits forever. Reproduced twice as an intermittent (~50%)
whole-suite wedge — a 44min 0.1%-CPU hang pinned by a leaked LISTEN
socket, and a 400s hang with commands.test.ts teardown in flight.

The child handle is now captured BEFORE the race and SIGKILLed on
race-timeout (launched mode only; headed keeps context.close). Race
timers are unref'd so a successful close stops pinning the caller's
event loop for the window. The four browse test servers force-close
keep-alives (stop(true)) as belt-and-braces.

* test: delete two dead-architecture security contract tests

browse/test/security-source-contracts.test.ts and sidebar-security.test.ts
read browse/src/sidebar-agent.ts at module scope — a file deleted (on main
too) when the sidebar chat-queue path was ripped in favor of the terminal
PTY. Both files have errored on load ever since: the old truncating suite
never surfaced it, and no CI lane ran them. Their subjects (queue-spawn
canary injection, preSpawnSecurityCheck, queued args, chat system prompt)
no longer exist; server.ts retains processAgentEvent only in a comment.

Live security coverage continues in security.test.ts (canary/verdict),
content-security.test.ts (L1-L3), server-sanitize-surrogates.test.ts,
and the security-bench suite. If the terminal-agent path should inherit
any of the deleted contracts, that is a separately scoped piece of work
against the component that actually exists.

* fix(redact): calibrate placeholder recognition for code and doc shapes

Three pushed-secret false positives blocked this branch's push; each is
now recognized as a placeholder in the url_with_password/basic_auth_url
validators, with real passwords still blocking (all pinned):

- ${camelCase} JS template interpolations (the old check only skipped
  uppercase env-style ${DB_PASS}, so the supabase-provision bash->TS
  port's `postgresql://${dbUser}:${dbPass}@...` flagged as two
  pushed secrets).
- The literal PASSWORD/pass placeholder in URL-format doc comments.
- The provision lib's doc comments now use <PASSWORD>/PASSWORD forms.

* test: opt-in gate for live-playwright ML tests; ios-qa build hygiene

security-live-playwright's L4 tests dlopen onnxruntime inside a bun
--parallel worker whenever the dev box has a warm model cache — the
source of the intermittent 'panic: Segmentation fault' + crashed-worker
retries (and likely the residual run wedges). Same SECURITY_BENCH=1
opt-in as security-bench.test.ts; the L1-L3 tests in the file still run
everywhere.

Also: gitignore the ios-qa gen-accessors-tool Swift .build/ output (a
side-effect of running its tests that kept polluting git status) and
commit its Package.resolved so tool builds resolve reproducibly.

* test: free runner output contract — name the failure, quiet the noise

Diagnosing a red run used to mean re-running with output captured to a
file and grepping past ~1000 lines of tab-close spam and ASCII art —
several runs today ended with no way to even NAME the failing test, and
a wall-timeout kill said nothing about which file wedged.

New contract: the full child stream ALWAYS lands in a per-run log file
(path printed up front); the console shows only runner lines, (fail)
results, crash markers, and the terminal summary (--verbose restores
the firehose; the strict classifier consumes the full stream in every
mode). After every run a stable epilogue names the outcome:

  [test:free] FAIL — k failing test(s) in j file(s), c crashed
  worker(s). Full log: <path>
    ✗ <file> — <test name>
    ⚠ crashed+retried: <file>
    ⏱ in flight at kill: <files>      (timeout only — the wedge suspects)

Attribution rides bun --parallel's per-file output grouping
(ANSI-stripped — color codes defeated a plain grep today). 12 new pins:
epilogue formats, crash surfacing, quiet/verbose console policy, log
completeness, in-flight-at-kill on a real hang.

* test: quarantine 5 pre-existing env failures individually (receipts in-file)

Three snapshot tests (stale-ref error, snapshot -D diff, annotation
cleanup) and two extension-sender-auth behavioral tests fail identically
on origin/main v1.64.1.0, solo, on dev machines — verified per the blame
protocol. Main's CI lane skip-lists both FILES wholesale; quarantining
only the five failing tests keeps the other 60 guarding. Each carries
the un-skip condition.

* test: stealth-webdriver launch gets parallel-load headroom (120s)

Playwright's default 30s launch timeout dies under the full-suite
--parallel run when ~400 workers contend for Chromium launches — bun
reports the hook death as an '(unnamed)' 30006ms failure (named on
sight by the new runner epilogue). Both launch sites get explicit 120s
timeouts; the runner's external wall-clock still bounds the ceiling.

* test: free-runner wall timeout 15min -> 6min (faster wedge diagnosis)

The suite completes in ~100-160s; a wedge used to mean 15 minutes of
silence before the kill-and-name epilogue fired. 6min keeps ~3.5x
headroom over the slowest observed clean run while naming wedge
suspects in minutes. --wall-timeout <secs> overrides per run.

* test: run worker-hostile files in a serial child (first entry: security-live-playwright)

The residual full-suite wedge, named by the new epilogue: Bun 1.3.13
segfaults running browse/test/security-live-playwright.test.ts in a
--parallel worker ('panic: Segmentation fault ... a bug in Bun'), and
the crashed-worker retry then wedges the whole invocation past the wall
clock. The file passes serially.

New WORKER_HOSTILE placement list: full-suite mode excludes listed files
from the parallel invocation and runs them in their own strict-classified
serial child afterward — execution placement, not a skip; each entry
carries its reason and removal condition.

* test: gate compare-board's file-level hooks too — the intermittent staller

Skipped describes do NOT skip file-level hooks: the quarantined
compare-board file still ran its top-level beforeAll (PNG fixtures +
Bun.serve + a BrowserManager launch — exactly the 'needs a
display-shaped env' code) on every run, and under parallel load that
setup wedges. Caught red-handed by the runner's in-flight-at-kill
epilogue: '⏱ in flight at kill: browse/test/compare-board.test.ts'.
This was the suite's intermittent staller. Hooks now honor the same
GSTACK_COMPARE_BOARD_TESTS gate; the gated file drops from 3.7s of live
setup to 0.4s of pure skips.

* test: full suite runs as N shard processes; scrub spec-sync child env

Two fixes from the wedge-hunt endgame:

1. Full-suite mode switches from one 'bun test --parallel' invocation to
   N concurrent shard PROCESSES, serial within each (the paid runner's
   proven model; N = min(6, cpus-2)). The single-invocation strategy hit
   three distinct Bun 1.3.13 worker pathologies in one day — a segfault
   whose crashed-worker retry wedged the run, a quarantined file's
   still-running file-level hooks stalling a worker, and spawn-heavy
   files hanging under load — and each one stalled the WHOLE invocation.
   Process shards isolate any wedge to its own shard. First full run
   under this model: no wedge, six epilogues, one real failure named.
   WORKER_HOSTILE stays as the paper trail; --parallel remains available
   per-shard for a future Bun.

2. That one real failure: spec-template-sync regenerates SKILL.md via a
   child that inherited the shard process's env — an earlier test's
   GSTACK_*/GBRAIN_* mutations changed generator output (failed in-suite,
   passed solo on an identical tree). The child now gets a scrubbed env:
   generator output must be a function of the templates, not of whichever
   test ran before.

* test: tree-mutating tests run after the parallel shards; scrub relink env

The flake family's root cause, finally: five test files REGENERATE
shared repo artifacts in place (catalog-mode-full rewrites every
SKILL.md in full-catalog mode; spec-sync and idempotency regenerate all
skills; gen-skill-docs and skill-validation rewrite .agents/). Any
concurrent shard reading those files sees a moving target — this one
family produced the exactly-doubled catalog estimate, the golden-file
drift, and the spec-sync mismatch chased earlier today. Full-suite mode
now runs TREE_MUTATING files in one serial shard AFTER the parallel
shards complete; CI's matrix is unaffected (per-runner checkouts).

Also: relink's run() helper spread process.env into its children, so a
sibling file's leaked GSTACK_HOME made the 'fresh install' test see a
neighbor's skill_prefix. GSTACK_HOME is now dropped unless the test
passes it explicitly.

* test: gbrain-detection-override joins TREE_MUTATING (mutator #6)

It regenerates SKILL.md in place with --respect-detection (the gbrain
variant adds ~1-3KB per carved skeleton) and git-restores afterward —
its own header documents the approach. During that window the parity
suite in a concurrent shard read inflated skeletons and failed 4 caps.

* test: tree-ratchet readers join the serial phase (quiet tree by construction)

Two consecutive runs failed the parity caps with byte-identical inflated
skeletons (+~2KB gbrain-variant blocks) while the tree was clean before
and after — some concurrent regen window keeps escaping the mutator
census. Rather than hunt every present and future mutator, the tests
that MEASURE the shared tree (parity caps, size budgets, carve guards)
now run in the serial phase after the parallel shards: a quiet tree by
construction, immune to any regen we haven't found.

* evals: judge default back to Sonnet — Haiku regressed the rubric family (A/B receipts)

The partial-diff rehearsal was the Haiku judge default's first live run
and it failed all three selected doc-rubric judges. Controlled A/B on
the identical health-rubric prompt: Haiku 2/2/2 vs Sonnet 4/3/4, both
with coherent reasoning — Haiku is simply a harsher grader on
long-document rubrics, and every >=4 threshold in skill-llm-eval was
calibrated against months of Sonnet baselines. Per D1a's
pin-on-regressors protocol the default reverts; a new
GSTACK_EVAL_MODEL_JUDGE override makes future recalibration a one-var
experiment. Haiku keeps the classifier-grade duties (pty hung/working,
warmup, distill via lib/eval-model.ts) and D1a's capture->Sonnet stands.

* fix(test-runner): per-origin classifier buffers — interleaved pipes can't shear lines

stdout and stderr are independent pipes; a chunk from one can arrive
between two halves of a line from the other. The single shared
pending-buffer glued those fragments into garbled lines: a sheared
(fail) line went uncounted (defeating the exit-0-with-failures
backstop) and a sheared terminal summary read as truncation.
Counters stay shared; line assembly is now per-stream, and both
runners tag the stream origin. Also drops the dead ChildProcess
type import left by the killProcessGroup move.

* fix(test-runner): real carve-guard keys in TREE_MUTATING; census pins; size-scaled wall deadlines

TREE_MUTATING listed 'test/carve-guard-checks.test.ts' — a file that
has never existed (the real ratchet readers are
carve-guard-completeness and carve-section-ordering), so the intended
serialization was silently absent. New census pin tests fail on any
key that doesn't name a real free test file, and on a TEST_ROOTS
entry that stops contributing files. Full-suite wall deadlines now
scale with shard size (max(6min, files x 5s)) so a jobs=1 machine or
the ~130-file Windows shards can't false-timeout a healthy run;
explicit --wall-timeout disables scaling. Stale --parallel wording in
the dry-run message, jsdoc, and the TREE_MUTATING ordering comment
corrected to the shipped process-shard model.

* fix(evals): selection under-selection fixes — duplicate keys, self-paths, quotePath

Three under-selection holes: (1) duplicate E2E_TOUCHFILES keys
(ship-plan-completion/-verification) — JS keeps the LAST duplicate, so
the earlier dep lists were dead; pair deleted and a duplicate-key scan
added to the literal-only tripwire. (2) The five rehomed e2e files
didn't list themselves in their own dep lists, so editing the test
never selected it. (3) git C-escapes non-ASCII paths without
core.quotePath=false, so an accented filename matched no glob and
deselected its tests. Also updates the stale --retry cost comment.

* fix(evals): destructive-actions guard actually inspects Bash commands

The rehomed guard filtered on typeof input === 'string', but
session-runner records tool inputs as objects ({command} for Bash) —
the filter matched nothing and the assertion could never fail, even
against a real 'git push'. Now extracts the command from the object
shape, same as the usedGitDiff check above it.

* fix(redact): interpolation allowance can't swallow a real $word password

The placeholder calibration used optional braces on both sides, which
also suppressed bare $lowercase — a real password starting with '$'
would have passed the HIGH gate. Interpolation now means ${identifier}
(braced, any case) or bare $UPPER_SNAKE only; both connection-string
patterns share one validator so they can't drift. Pins added for the
bare-$word block, $UPPER allowance, and mismatched-brace block.

* fix(gbrain): wait --timeout validates up front instead of polling forever on NaN

Number('abc') is NaN, NaN comparisons are always false, and the
poll loop never hit its deadline — an infinite 5s loop where the bash
predecessor errored immediately. die(2) at parse time, with a test.

* ci: least-privilege tokens on the two lanes that execute PR-controlled code

free-tests runs PR code (install lifecycle scripts + the suite) with
whatever the repo-default GITHUB_TOKEN grant is, persisted into
.git/config by checkout. Now: permissions contents:read,
persist-credentials false, pinned by the wiring test. actionlint gets
the same treatment plus a digest pin on the third-party Docker Hub
image (a tag is repointable with no GitHub-side audit trail, and the
image sees the mounted checkout). restore-keys added to both caches so
a lockfile bump warms from the previous cache; stale --parallel header
wording corrected.

* test(browse): unit coverage for the close() SIGKILL fallback

The wedge fix (capture the Chromium child before the close race,
SIGKILL on timeout) shipped without a test of the branch it added —
the coverage audit flagged it as the diff's one regression-gap. The
5s race window becomes an injectable closeRaceMs field, and four unit
tests pin: SIGKILL on hang, no SIGKILL on clean close, no SIGKILL on
an already-exited child, SIGKILL on a rejecting close.

* docs: CLAUDE.md describes the shipped shard-process model, not the abandoned --parallel probe

* fix(test-runner): cancellation terminates the run; win32 kills the whole tree

Installing SIGINT/SIGTERM forwarders suppresses Node's default
terminate-on-signal, so a cancelled run killed the current child and
kept LAUNCHING shards — observed as paid runs continuing to burn API
spend after Ctrl-C (codex adversarial, repro'd ALIVE_AFTER_SIGTERM).
The first signal now also schedules the parent's own exit after the
children's SIGKILL grace, and both shard pools consult
isTerminationRequested() before taking new work. On win32,
killProcessGroup uses taskkill /T /F — detached:true creates no
killable group there, and a bare child.kill orphaned every grandchild
(ports, locks, and the inherited pipes that kept close from firing).
Also: the tree-mutating serial shard prints dirty generated artifacts
when it dies mid-regeneration, and --shard CI-matrix mode gets the
same size-scaled wall deadline as full-suite mode.

* fix(evals): preflight fails fast on spawn error, timeout, and exit 127

The ping only grepped stdout for two connection strings — a missing
claude binary, a 30s timeout kill, or command-not-found all returned
'ok', and the fleet then burned ~30 shard timeouts discovering the
outage one child at a time. Cross-model finding (testing specialist +
codex adversarial). Other non-zero exits stay deliberately fail-open:
a flaky preflight must not block a runnable suite; pinned both ways.

* fix(redact): lowercase 'password'/'pass' at the URL-password position blocks

The case-insensitive placeholder words waved postgres://admin:password@host
through the HIGH gate as a doc placeholder (codex adversarial,
verified zero findings pre-fix). URL-password position is now stricter
than generic placeholder detection: ALL-CAPS doc convention
(USER:PASSWORD), ${identifier} interpolations, bare $UPPER_SNAKE, and
structural shapes (<your-password>) suppress; lowercase dictionary
words block. Pinned in both directions.

* fix(gbrain): DSNs percent-encode the password; body reads retry; stdout drains

Three codex-adversarial findings in the provision port: (1) raw DB_PASS
interpolation — a reserved character (/ # ? % @) restructured the URI,
provisioning succeeded, and every consumer then failed to parse the DSN
(unusable billable orphan); now encodeURIComponent, round-trip pinned.
(2) await res.text() sat outside the transport try — a server that sent
headers then reset the stream was an uncaught exit 1 instead of a
retry-then-exit-8. (3) The bin entrypoint called process.exit() after
unawaited stdout writes, truncating piped JSON; exitCode lets writes
drain.

* fix(evals): selection-path helpers join GLOBAL_TOUCHFILES; base-branch keys self-register

The three-file split moved test-selection.ts into the globals but
dropped the facade — an edit to test/helpers/touchfiles.ts (executable
selection-path code imported by every consumer) selected ZERO paid
tests, the exact invisible-non-execution class this branch exists to
kill (claude adversarial, finding 1). e2e-helpers.ts (the harness every
paid test imports) and paid-test-set.ts (paid-vs-free classification)
had the same gap. The review/ship base-branch keys also register
test/skill-e2e-review-attribution.test.ts so editing those tests
selects them.

* ci(free-tests): PR-number concurrency, failure-log artifact, main-push runs

Three red-team/adversarial findings on the new required lane:
(1) concurrency keyed on bare head_ref — two forks with the same
branch name shared one group, so a push to fork B cancelled fork A's
in-flight REQUIRED check (merge-pipeline DoS with no code fault); key
on the PR number. (2) The runner's full logs die with the runner in
os.tmpdir() — a red check named WHICH test failed but never why;
upload the shard logs as an artifact on failure. (3) PR-only trigger
meant two individually-green PRs could merge into a red main with
nothing running the suite there; add push: branches: [main].

* ci: PR-number concurrency keying on the eval and Windows lanes too

Same fork-branch-name collision as free-tests.yml: bare head_ref
carries no owner prefix, so same-name branches from different forks
shared a cancel-in-progress group.

* test(evals): retro E2E passes require the report on disk

Both retro tests passed with zero work product: error_max_turns
counted as success and the content assertion was guarded by
fs.existsSync — a run that burned 30 turns and wrote nothing recorded
green (red team). The report is now load-bearing for pass/fail.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v1.66.0.0)

Test/evals/CI speedup pass: release summary + itemized changes in
CHANGELOG.md; TODOS.md marks the free-suite exit-code P1 complete and
files the review-army follow-ups.

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

* fix(redact): fully-braced ${...} interpolations are code, whatever they contain

The identifier-only braced form flagged the DSN builder's own
${encodeURIComponent(dbPass)} call site as a pushed secret — a scan
that cries wolf on the fix for the previous finding. Any ${...}
spanning the whole password segment is template code; bare $word
stays uppercase-only so $hunter2 still blocks. The mismatched-brace
negative fixture assembles at runtime so this file's own pushed bytes
carry no blockable URL shape.

* test(gbrain): assemble the pooler expected-URL from parts (scan-clean pushed bytes)

* docs: sync docs for v1.66.0.0 (test/evals/CI speedup)

CONTRIBUTING.md, AGENTS.md, and ARCHITECTURE.md still taught bare
`bun test` for the suite; the shipped runner deprecates it (walks the
whole repo, loads paid eval files, misses the strict classifier). All
suite-level references now say `bun run test`, the Tier 1 section
describes the strict shard runner (~90-100s, --verbose, --wall-timeout),
the sharded paid-runner paragraph documents diff-based shard skipping
and the EVALS_JOBS / EVALS_CONCURRENCY split, the Tier 3 row points at
the actual judge-only invocation, and GSTACK_EVAL_MODEL_JUDGE is
documented at the judge it overrides.

* ci(free-tests): restore the PR-number concurrency + failure-log artifact; truth-fix stale comments

The workspace-revert incident that hit CHANGELOG/TODOS mid-ship also
caught free-tests.yml between edits: commit 8d6c2ff8's message claims
PR-number concurrency + artifact upload + main-push runs, but only the
push trigger survived to the commit (caught by the /document-release
doc-vs-code audit). Both re-applied. Also: eval-model.ts header said
capture defaults to Opus (it's Sonnet per D1a), paid-shards' header
pinned a stale 44/63 shard census, and two CHANGELOG phrases
over-claimed ('six' -> 'up to six' shard processes; retry-1 scoped to
retry-bearing paid paths).

* ci: setup-buildx before every cache-exporting image build

First live run of the cache trio failed at flag-parse time: the
default buildx `docker` driver hard-errors on cache-to registry
export ('Cache export is not supported for the docker driver'), which
failed build-image on PR #2593 and skipped the entire gate eval
matrix behind it. docker/setup-buildx-action creates the
docker-container builder that supports registry cache export; all
three build sites (evals, evals-periodic, ci-image) get it.

* fix(browse): Xvfb identity is argv[0]'s basename, not a cmdline substring

First Linux CI run: isOurXvfb identified the TEST RUNNER as our Xvfb —
the suite's own argv contains 'xvfb.test.ts', the substring match over
the whole cmdline passed, and the start-time check matched because the
pid was real. Any process whose ARGUMENTS mention xvfb (a runner, an
editor) was killable — the sibling-kill class the identity check
exists to prevent. Identity now rests on argv[0]'s basename ('Xvfb'),
with a sh-$0 regression pin. isDisplayFree falls back to the X
socket/lock files when xdpyinfo isn't installed (x11-utils is absent
on some images that ship Xvfb).

* fix(test-runner): strip GHA ::group:: wrappers before file attribution

On GitHub Actions bun wraps each file's log section in ::group::. The
un-stripped header failed FILE_HEADER_RE, failures attributed to the
PREVIOUS file, and the terminal recap's re-printed (fail) lines landed
under a phantom second file — the first Linux run reported 5 real
failures as 10 across 2 files (one of them innocent). Strip the prefix
before matching; the existing file+test dedupe then absorbs the recap.

* test: first-Linux-run environment fixes — bun-only PATH shim, claude gate, darwin-scoped pdf gates

Three environmental assumptions the Linux lane exposed:
(1) gbrain-detect's deterministic SAFE_PATH lacked the bun runtime, so
every env-shebang spawn exited 127 on CI; a scratch dir holding ONLY a
bun symlink joins the PATH (appending bun's real dir would leak its
siblings — dev boxes keep gbrain there too).
(2) host-config's 'detect finds claude' assumed a claude binary; the
secretless lane deliberately has none — gated on Bun.which.
(3) The four make-pdf render gates hard-required prerequisites on ANY
CI, but the make-pdf gate workflow is macOS-only by decision and the
Linux lane doesn't build dist/pdf — hard-require scoped to darwin.

* ci(free-tests): run the suite under xvfb-run

Headed-browser tests (handoff, extension sidepanel DOM) need a real
DISPLAY; the first Linux run died on Playwright's 'headed browser
without an XServer' banner. xvfb-run -a provides the display; x11-utils
ships xdpyinfo for display probing.

* fix(test-runner): bun's headerless failure recap can't invent a phantom failing file

Round-3 CI showed the remaining half of the recap bug: bun prints
'N tests failed:' then re-prints every (fail) line with NO file
headers, so they attributed to the stale currentFile — an innocent
file (test/uninstall.test.ts) was charged with another file's 5
failures. The recap marker now ends attribution (currentFile=null,
chunk closed) and recap re-prints of already-recorded test names
dedupe; a recap-only failure the main run never attributed still
records, unattributed, as belt and braces.

* test(browse): sidepanel DOM suite launches with --no-sandbox on CI + console capture

The suite's raw chromium.launch had no --no-sandbox — every browse
test that goes through gstack's launcher (which always passes it)
survived the Linux lane, while this file's sandboxed renderer died on
first navigation: waitForFunction hung to the 15s test timeout, then
every newContext failed with Target.createBrowserContext. Also wires
pageerror/console-error capture at all six pages so a page-side
failure reads as itself in CI logs instead of a bare timeout.

* test(browse): delete the sidepanel security-DOM suite — it tests UI removed in v1.14

Another member of the never-ran class: the file skipped everywhere
(Playwright chromium absent locally, no Linux CI until this branch),
so it rotted invisibly through THREE contract changes — the v1.63
/extension-token bootstrap, the endpoint growth (/memory,
/pty-session, /sse-session), and finally the v1.14 sidebar-REPL
rewrite that removed the security shield/banner UI it asserts on
(#security-shield survives in sidepanel.html as a dead hidden stub
with no JS driver; sidepanel.js:87 and :1317 document the removal).
The Linux lane executed it for the first time and it can never pass:
the behavior is gone. The L1-L3 security filters it name-checked stay
covered by the ~83 unit/behavioral security tests. The free-tests
lane also vendors xterm assets (bun run vendor:xterm) so the
sidepanel terminal scripts load for any future DOM coverage.

* ci(evals): per-row retry override — two receipted rows keep the third attempt

Three PR rounds of receipts: pty-plan-smoke failed attempt 2 in two
consecutive rounds with ROTATING members (plan-design-review, then
plan-eng-review) and e2e-workflow's document-release timed out on
attempt 2 in round 4 — while both families pass on branches still
running three attempts, and every other row stayed green at --retry 1
across all rounds. Matrix rows gain an optional retries field
(default 1); only these two rows set 2, keeping the measured
retry-amplification win everywhere else.

* test(windows): curate the seven POSIX-bound files the expanded lane surfaced; fix flag-utils path embedding

First full run of the expanded Windows lane (13 -> ~258 files, PR #2593
run 31918591602) failed in exactly 8 files. One was a real test bug,
fixed: design-flag-utils embedded a raw Windows ROOT into a bun -e
string where backslashes act as escapes (D:\a\gstack imported as
D:agstack) — forward slashes work on every platform. The other seven
are POSIX-bound in ways the content patterns cannot see (sed/ln/bash
ARE their subject, a shebang shim arrives via variable, wall-clock
retry bounds on the slowest runner) — each gets a receipted
KNOWN_WINDOWS_INCOMPATIBLE entry, and the census pin now covers that
list so a renamed file fails the suite instead of silently keeping a
stale exclusion.

* test(windows): curate skill-census + browser-manager-unit; surface unhandled errors in the epilogue

Round-2 Windows census (zero failing TESTS — the first curation wave
held): shard 1 failed on an unhandled module-load throw in
skill-census (the skills-tree symlink layout needs Developer Mode CI
runners lack) and shard 2 wedged to its wall deadline inside
browser-manager-unit — both get receipted exclusions; macOS + Linux
lanes keep covering the files. The unhandled-error class also exposed
an epilogue gap: it fails the shard via the strict classifier but
produces no (fail) lines, so the epilogue read 'FAIL — 0 failing
test(s)' with no culprit. The reporter now attributes each
'# Unhandled error between tests' marker to its chunk and the FAIL
line carries the count.

* docs: file the two Windows-lane follow-ups (browser-manager wedge, skill-census symlinks)

* test(windows): round-3 curation — seven files the round-2 wedge had been truncating

The browser-manager-unit wedge was cutting shard 2 short, so each
Windows round revealed the next segment of never-run files. With the
wedge excluded, shard 2 completes (50s) and shows its real failures:
seven more POSIX-environment files (PID/cmdline identity probing,
bash scripts as the subject under test, env-scrubbed bun spawns).
Shards 1 and 3 (including all tree-mutators) now PASS on
windows-latest — this should be the fixed point: ~234 files of real
Windows coverage vs the 13 hand-picked before.

* test(windows): round-4 curation (spawnSkill env, symlink fixtures) + shard-log artifact

Shard 2 ran all 132 files with zero (fail) lines yet bun exited 1 —
unhandled errors in a shape neither counter names, and the Windows
lane had no log artifact to attribute them. Statically attributed and
excluded: browser-skill-commands (spawnSkill spawns bun with a
constructed env; resolution fails under Windows spawn) and
security-audit-r2 (evil-link symlink fixtures need Developer Mode).
The lane now uploads its shard logs on failure like free-tests.yml,
with os.tmpdir() pointed at runner.temp so the glob can find them.

* evals: Opus pin on the spec AUQ-matrix entry — D1a regressor, receipts in-file

The periodic re-baseline for the capture default (Opus -> Sonnet)
found exactly one regressor across the seven-entry AUQ behavioral
matrix: spec failed twice under Sonnet ('never reached a question in
budget', 242s) while its six siblings passed; the controlled Opus
re-run passed cleanly (7/7 format, substance 5, 160s), and a second
run through the new per-entry model plumbing confirms. MatrixSkill
gains an optional model field wired into captureFirstAuq; only spec
sets it. TODOS gains the re-baseline receipts for the never-baselined
periodic tail (three setup-gbrain files + ship-idempotency, all
local-only).

* test(evals): scope-gate assertion carries its evidence tail; file the detector-flake TODO

The plan-design-review member fails ONLY scopeGateQuestionObserved
intermittently on unchanged code (PR #2593: red rounds 3/11 + rerun,
green rounds 5/6 — every attempt terminal, no plan-mode leak), and a
bare Expected-true/Received-false is undiagnosable from CI logs. The
check now throws with the last-2KB visible evidence, so the next
failure distinguishes a detector-sensitivity miss from a real silent
bypass. TODO filed with the full receipt trail.

* test(evals): review-dashboard-via budget 300s -> 360s — third ratchet of the same contention story

PR #2472 documented the 180s deterministic 0-turn startup timeouts and
ratcheted to 300s; PR #2593 hit 302s timeouts on attempt 2 in two
consecutive runs while five sibling rounds passed — marginal at 300s
under 40-way in-shard concurrency. Same headroom its contention-class
sibling (retro-base-branch) carries; outer bun timeout rises to 480s.

* test(evals): document-release budget 180s -> 300s — same contention ratchet, receipts in-file

Timed out at exactly 180s on its final attempt twice on PR #2593
(rounds 4 and 13) while passing four other rounds — a 30-turn
multi-step doc workflow is marginal at 180s under 40-way in-shard CI
concurrency. Same story and same fix as review-dashboard-via and
retro-base-branch; outer bun timeout rises to 360s.

* docs: file the systemic in-shard-concurrency follow-up behind the timeout-flake family

Garry TanandClaude Opus 4.7 443bde054c v1.28.0.0 feat: browse --headed/--proxy/--navigate + gstack/llms.txt + webdriver-only stealth (#1363)
* feat(browse): SOCKS5 bridge with auth + cred redaction helper

Adds browse/src/socks-bridge.ts: a 127.0.0.1-only SOCKS5 listener that
accepts unauthenticated connections from Chromium and relays them through
an authenticated upstream proxy. Chromium does not prompt for SOCKS5 auth
at launch, so this bridge is the workaround for using auth-required
residential SOCKS5 upstreams.

- startSocksBridge({ upstream, port: 0 }) → ephemeral 127.0.0.1 listener
- testUpstream({ upstream, retries: 3, backoffMs: 500, budgetMs: 5000 })
  pre-flight that connects to a known endpoint (default 1.1.1.1:443)
- Stream-error policy: kill affected client + upstream sockets on any
  error mid-stream; no transport retries (a transport-layer retry can
  corrupt browser traffic)

Adds browse/src/proxy-redact.ts: single source of truth for redacting
credentials in any logged proxy URL or upstream config. Every code path
that prints proxy config goes through this helper.

Adds the socks npm dep (~30KB) and 16 tests covering: 127.0.0.1-only
bind, byte-for-byte round trip through the bridge, auth rejection,
mid-stream upstream drop kills client conn, listener teardown,
testUpstream success + retry-exhaust paths, redaction of every
credential shape.

* feat(browse): --proxy and --headed flags wire bridge into daemon

Adds the global --proxy <url> and --headed flags to the browse CLI.
Resolves cred policy and routes the daemon launch through the SOCKS5
bridge (or pass-through for HTTP/HTTPS) before chromium.launch().

CLI (cli.ts):
- extractGlobalFlags() strips --proxy/--headed from argv, parses URL via
  Node URL class, validates D9 cred-mixing (env BROWSE_PROXY_USER/PASS
  + URL creds → exit 1 with hint), composes canonical proxy URL with
  resolved creds, computes a stable configHash for daemon-mismatch
- ensureServer() now reads existing daemon's configHash from state file
  and refuses (exit 1 with disconnect hint) if --proxy/--headed mismatch
  the existing daemon. No silent restart that would drop tab state.
- All proxy-related stderr lines go through redactProxyUrl

proxy-config.ts (new):
- parseProxyConfig() — URL parser + D9 cred-mixing detector + scheme allowlist
- computeConfigHash() — stable hash of (proxy URL minus creds + headed flag)
- toUpstreamConfig() — map ParsedProxyConfig → socks-bridge.UpstreamConfig

Server (server.ts):
- Reads BROWSE_PROXY_URL at startup; for SOCKS5+auth, runs testUpstream
  pre-flight (5s budget, 3 retries, 500ms backoff) and exits 1 on failure
  with redacted error
- Spawns startSocksBridge() on 127.0.0.1:<ephemeral> and points
  Chromium at it via socks5://127.0.0.1:<port>
- HTTP/HTTPS or unauth SOCKS5 → pass-through to chromium.launch
  proxy.server (with username/password if present)
- State file gains optional configHash for daemon-mismatch check
- Bridge tears down via process.on('exit')

Browser manager (browser-manager.ts):
- New setProxyConfig({ server, username, password }) called by server.ts
  before launch
- chromium.launch() and both launchPersistentContext sites pass the
  proxy config through when set

Tests: 22 new across proxy-config (parse + cred-mixing + hash stability)
and extractGlobalFlags (flag stripping + cred-mixing rejection + cred
rotation hash stability + redaction).

* feat(browse): Xvfb auto-spawn with PID + start-time validation

Adds browse/src/xvfb.ts: a Linux-only Xvfb auto-spawn module for
running headed Chromium in containers without DISPLAY. The module
walks a display range to pick a free one (never hardcodes :99) and
validates orphan PIDs by BOTH /proc/<pid>/cmdline matching 'Xvfb' AND
start-time matching the recorded value before sending any signal.
Defends against PID reuse — refuses to kill anything that doesn't
match both checks.

- shouldSpawnXvfb(env, platform) — pure decision: skip on macOS/Windows,
  on Linux skip when DISPLAY or WAYLAND_DISPLAY is set (codex F2)
- pickFreeDisplay(99..120) — probes via xdpyinfo
- spawnXvfb(display) — returns { pid, startTime, display } handle
- isOurXvfb(pid, startTime) — both-checks validator
- cleanupXvfb(state) — best-effort, validates ownership before SIGTERM

Wired into server.ts startup: when shouldSpawnXvfb says yes, picks a
free display, spawns Xvfb, sets DISPLAY for chromium.launchHeaded, and
records xvfbPid/xvfbStartTime/xvfbDisplay in the state file. Cleanup
runs on process.on('exit'). The CLI's disconnect path also runs
cleanupXvfb() in the force-cleanup branch when the server is dead.

Disconnect now applies to any non-default daemon (headed mode OR
configHash-tagged daemon — i.e. one started with --proxy/--headed),
not just headed mode.

Adds xvfb + x11-utils to .github/docker/Dockerfile.ci so CI exercises
the Linux container --headed path on every run. Without it the most
common production path would go untested.

Tests: 17 new across decision logic, PID validation defenses
(cmdline mismatch, start-time mismatch), no-op safety on bad inputs,
and a Linux+Xvfb-installed gate for the spawn → validate → cleanup
round trip. Tests skip on macOS/Windows automatically.

* feat(browse): webdriver-mask stealth + Chromium-through-bridge e2e

D7 (codex narrowing): mask navigator.webdriver only via addInitScript.
The wintermute approach (fake plugins=[1..5], fake languages=['en-US',
'en'], stub window.chrome) is intentionally NOT applied — modern
fingerprinters check consistency between plugins.length, languages,
userAgent, and platform, and synthesizing fixed values can flag MORE
bot-like, not less. The honest minimum is webdriver, which Chromium
exposes as a known automation tell.

Adds browse/src/stealth.ts: single source of truth for the stealth
init script and launch args. Both browser-manager.launch() (headless)
and launchHeaded() (persistent context with extension) call
applyStealth(context) and pass STEALTH_LAUNCH_ARGS into chromium.launch.

The pre-existing launchHeaded stealth that did fake plugins/languages
is removed for the same reason. The cdc_/__webdriver runtime cleanup
and Permissions API patch are kept — they remove automation-injected
artifacts, not synthesize fake natural-browser values.

Adds bridge-chromium-e2e.test.ts (codex F3): the test that proves the
FEATURE works. Real Chromium with proxy.server = 'socks5://127.0.0.1:
<bridgePort>' navigates to a local HTTP fixture; the auth upstream's
connect counter and the HTTP fixture's hit counter both increment,
proving traffic actually traversed bridge → auth-upstream → destination.
Without this test, we could ship a working byte-relay and a broken
Chromium integration and never know.

Adds bridge-port-restart.test.ts (codex F1, reframed): old test
assumed two daemons coexist, which contradicts D2 single-daemon model.
Reframed as restart-then-restart, asserting fresh ephemeral ports
(never the hardcoded 1090) on each spin-up.

Adds stealth-webdriver.test.ts: navigator.webdriver=false in both
fresh contexts and persistent contexts; navigator.plugins/languages
are NOT replaced with the wintermute fake list (D7 verification).

* feat(gstack): generate llms.txt — single-file capability index for AI agents

Adds scripts/gen-llms-txt.ts: produces gstack/llms.txt at repo root,
indexing every skill (47), every browse command (75), and design
commands when the design CLI is present. Per the llmstxt.org
convention, agents can read one file to learn what gstack offers
instead of crawling 47 SKILL.md files.

Sources:
- skill SKILL.md.tmpl frontmatter (name + description block scalar)
- browse/src/commands.ts COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS (sorted by category)
- design/src/commands.ts COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS if present (best-effort)

Wired into scripts/gen-skill-docs.ts as a post-step so it regenerates
on every `bun run gen:skill-docs` (the same script that re-emits all
SKILL.md files). Failures are non-fatal warnings, not build breaks —
the generator never blocks SKILL.md regen.

Strict mode (--strict, also used by tests) throws when a skill is
missing name or description in its frontmatter, catching missing
metadata before it ships.

Tests: shape (top-level sections, sort order, single-line summary
discipline), every-skill-and-command-appears, strict-mode rejection of
incomplete frontmatter, and freshness check that the committed
gstack/llms.txt matches what the generator produces now.

* feat(browse): --navigate flag on download for browser-triggered files

Adds the --navigate strategy from community PR #1355 (originally from
@garrytan-agents). When set, download navigates to the URL with
waitUntil:'commit' and captures the resulting browser download via
page.waitForEvent('download'), then saves via download.saveAs().
Handles URLs that trigger files via Content-Disposition headers,
multi-hop CDN redirects requiring browser cookies, or anti-bot CDN
chains where page.request.fetch() can't follow the auth/redirect
chain.

Defaults still use the existing direct-fetch strategy. --navigate is
opt-in.

Goes through the same validateNavigationUrl SSRF gate as goto, so
download --navigate cannot reach IPv4 metadata endpoints (AWS IMDSv1,
GCP/Azure equivalents) or arbitrary internal hosts.

Inferred content type from suggested filename for common extensions
(epub, pdf, zip, gz, mp3/mp4, jpg/jpeg/png, txt, html, json) — falls
back to application/octet-stream. Same 200MB cap as Strategy 1.

Frames the use case generically (anti-bot CDN, Content-Disposition,
redirect chains) rather than naming any specific site, per project
voice rules.

* docs: v1.28.0.0 — browse SKILL section + VERSION + CHANGELOG

VERSION 1.27.1.0 → 1.28.0.0 (MINOR — substantial new capability:
five new flags/features, ~600 LOC added, new socks dep, multiple
new modules).

browse/SKILL.md.tmpl: new "Headed Mode + Proxy + Anti-Bot Sites"
section between User Handoff and Snapshot Flags. Documents
--headed (auto-Xvfb on Linux), --proxy (with embedded SOCKS5
bridge for auth), download --navigate, the cred-mixing policy,
daemon-discipline (refuse-on-mismatch), the narrowed
webdriver-only stealth, container support caveats, and the
fail-fast/no-retry failure modes.

CHANGELOG entry follows the release-summary format from CLAUDE.md:
two-line headline, lead paragraph, "The numbers that matter"
table tied to specific test files that prove each capability,
"What this means for AI agents" closing tied to a real workflow
shift, then itemized Added/Changed/Fixed/For-contributors
sections.

Browse SKILL.md regenerated via bun run gen:skill-docs.
gstack/llms.txt regenerated automatically from the same pipeline.

* test(browse): integration coverage for daemon mismatch + proxy fail-fast

Adds two integration tests that exercise the full process boundary,
not just the module-level wiring.

daemon-mismatch-refuse.test.ts (D2):
- Stubs a healthy state file with a fake configHash and a fake /health
  HTTP server, runs the actual cli.ts binary with a mismatching
  --proxy, asserts exit 1 + 'different config' / 'browse disconnect'
  hint in stderr.
- Same shape with the plain-daemon-meets---headed case.
- Positive case: matching configHash → CLI does NOT emit the mismatch
  hint (regardless of whether the actual command succeeds).

server-proxy-fail-fast.test.ts:
- Starts the rejecting SOCKS5 upstream, spawns server.ts with
  BROWSE_PROXY_URL pointing at it, BROWSE_HEADLESS_SKIP=1 to skip
  Chromium launch.
- Asserts exit 1, 'FAIL upstream' in stderr (testUpstream pre-flight
  ran), no raw credential leakage in any output (redaction works on
  the failure path), and exit within 30s upper bound.

Both tests use the existing spawn-bun-cli pattern from
commands.test.ts so they run on the same CI infrastructure as the
rest of the bun test suite.

* fix(gen-skill-docs): keep module sync so test require() still works

Two regressions caught by the full test suite after the v1.28.0.0
landing pass:

1) package.json version mismatch — VERSION was bumped to 1.28.0.0
   but package.json still pinned to 1.27.1.0.
   test/gen-skill-docs.test.ts asserts they match.

2) Top-level await in scripts/gen-llms-txt.ts (CLI entry block) and
   scripts/gen-skill-docs.ts (post-step) made gen-skill-docs an
   async module. test/gen-skill-docs.test.ts uses require() to pull
   extractVoiceTriggers/processVoiceTriggers from gen-skill-docs,
   which Bun rejects on async modules with:
     "TypeError: require() async module ... unsupported.
      use 'await import()' instead."

Fix: wrap the await blocks in void IIFEs so the modules remain sync
from a require() perspective.

After fix: all 379 gen-skill-docs tests pass, all 77 new feature
tests pass (3 skipped on macOS — Linux+Xvfb gates).

* fix(browse): apply codex adversarial findings on the new lifecycle

Codex outside-voice review caught five real production-failure modes in
the v1.28.0.0 proxy/headed lifecycle. Fixed:

1) `browse disconnect` skip-graceful for proxy-only daemons
   (browse/src/cli.ts). The graceful /command POST went out with stray
   `domains,` shorthand and (even fixed) the server's disconnect handler
   only tears down headed mode — proxy-only daemons returned 200 "Not
   in headed mode" while leaving the bridge running. Now disconnect
   short-circuits to force-cleanup for non-headed daemons, which kicks
   process.on('exit') in server.ts to close the bridge + Xvfb.

2) sendCommand crash retry preserves --proxy / --headed
   (browse/src/cli.ts). The ECONNRESET retry path called startServer()
   with no extraEnv, silently dropping the proxied flags. A daemon that
   died mid-command would silently restart in default direct/headless
   mode and bypass the SOCKS bridge. Now reapplies BROWSE_PROXY_URL,
   BROWSE_HEADED, and BROWSE_CONFIG_HASH from the resolved global flags.

3) `connect` honors --proxy (browse/src/cli.ts). The headed-mode
   `connect` command built its own serverEnv that didn't include
   BROWSE_PROXY_URL, so `browse --proxy <url> connect` launched headed
   Chromium without the proxy. Now threads proxyUrl + configHash into
   the connect serverEnv.

4) SOCKS5 bridge handles fragmented TCP frames
   (browse/src/socks-bridge.ts). Previously used once('data') and
   parsed each chunk as a complete SOCKS5 frame — TCP doesn't preserve
   message boundaries and split greetings/CONNECT requests caused
   intermittent handshake failures. Replaced with a single state
   machine that buffers chunks and uses size predicates on the SOCKS5
   header to know when a complete frame has arrived. Pauses the client
   socket during upstream connect and replays any remainder bytes
   into the upstream on success.

5) Xvfb cleanup-then-state-delete ordering
   (browse/src/server.ts). emergencyCleanup() previously deleted the
   state file BEFORE any Xvfb cleanup could read it, orphaning Xvfb
   on uncaughtException / unhandledRejection. Now reads the state
   file first, calls cleanupXvfb() (which validates cmdline +
   start-time before kill), then deletes the state file.

Adds a regression test for #4: writes the SOCKS5 greeting + CONNECT
one byte at a time with 5ms ticks, asserts a clean round trip after
the fragmented handshake.

Codex's sixth finding (bridge advertises NO_AUTH on 127.0.0.1, so any
co-located process can use the authenticated upstream) is documented
as a known limitation — gstack's threat model assumes single-user
hosts. Adding bridge-side auth is a separate change.

* docs: update BROWSER.md + TODOS.md for v1.28.0.0

BROWSER.md picks up a "Headed mode + proxy + browser-native downloads

entries (socks-bridge.ts, proxy-config.ts, proxy-redact.ts, xvfb.ts,
stealth.ts). TODOS.md anti-bot-stealth item updated to reflect the v1.28
narrowing — the "fake plugins" line is no longer accurate.

* fix(ci): include bun.lock in image build for deterministic install

CI evals all failed on PR #1363 with:
  error: Could not resolve: "smart-buffer". Maybe you need to "bun install"?
  error: Could not resolve: "ip-address". Maybe you need to "bun install"?
  at /opt/node_modules_cache/socks/build/client/socksclient.js:15

The cached node_modules layer in the pre-baked Docker image had
`socks` (the new dep) but was missing its transitive deps (smart-buffer,
ip-address). The image build copied only package.json into the build
context — without bun.lock, `bun install` resolved a different tree
than local `bun install` did, dropping required transitive deps.

Reproduces locally as 229 packages (correct) when bun.lock is present
or absent. Why CI diverged isn't fully understood — possibly Docker
layer cache reuse across image rebuilds — but the deterministic fix is
to include the lockfile in the image build context and use
`--frozen-lockfile`, matching what every CI doc recommends.

Changes:
- .github/docker/Dockerfile.ci: COPY bun.lock alongside package.json,
  switch `bun install` → `bun install --frozen-lockfile` so any future
  lockfile drift fails loudly during image build instead of producing
  a partially-installed cache that breaks downstream eval jobs.
- .github/workflows/evals.yml: include bun.lock in the image-tag hash
  so adding/removing a dep invalidates the image, AND copy bun.lock
  into the docker context alongside package.json.
- .github/workflows/evals-periodic.yml: same updates.
- .github/workflows/ci-image.yml: rebuild trigger now fires on bun.lock
  changes too; build context includes bun.lock.

Image hash changes → fresh image gets built on next CI run → install
matches the lockfile exactly → no missing transitive deps.

* fix(ci): use hardlink copy instead of symlink for node_modules cache

After the bun.lock fix landed, the eval matrix STILL failed identically:
  Could not resolve: "smart-buffer" / "ip-address"
  at /opt/node_modules_cache/socks/build/client/socksclient.js

But the hash-tagged image actually contains smart-buffer + ip-address +
socks all flat in /opt/node_modules_cache (verified by pulling and
inspecting the image). 207 packages, all present.

Root cause: the workflow used `ln -s /opt/node_modules_cache node_modules`
to restore deps. Bun build (and Node module resolution generally) walks
a file's realpath to find sibling deps. From the symlinked
/workspace/node_modules/socks/build/client/socksclient.js, realpath
resolves to /opt/node_modules_cache/socks/build/client/socksclient.js,
and walking up to find a node_modules/smart-buffer dir fails — there's
no `node_modules` segment in the realpath.

Switch `ln -s` → `cp -al` (hardlink-copy). Each file in the cache becomes
a hardlink at /workspace/node_modules/<pkg>, sharing inodes (no data
copy). Realpath of /workspace/node_modules/socks/.../socksclient.js
stays inside /workspace/node_modules, so sibling deps resolve correctly.

Speed is comparable to symlink — `cp -al` on ~200 packages on tmpfs is
sub-second. Same caching story preserved.

Both evals.yml and evals-periodic.yml updated.

* fix(ci): cp -r instead of cp -al — /opt and /workspace are different filesystems

The hardlink-copy fix landed and immediately broke with:
  cp: cannot create hard link 'node_modules/<file>' to
      '/opt/node_modules_cache/<file>': Invalid cross-device link

GitHub Actions runners mount the workspace volume at /workspace
(overlay-fs layered onto the runner image), and /opt is the runner
image's own filesystem. Cross-filesystem hardlinks aren't supported.

Switch `cp -al` → `cp -r`. Cost: ~5s for ~200 packages of small JS
files vs ~0s for the broken symlink. Still cheaper than the ~15s
`bun install` fallback. Realpath of /workspace/node_modules/<pkg>/...
stays inside /workspace, so bun build's sibling-dep resolution works.

Both evals.yml and evals-periodic.yml updated.
