* docs(designs): add fix wave 2026-10-15 plan (revision 3, approved)

* fix(cso): invoke docker as argv0 docker so OrbStack's multicall binary dispatches

executable() returns the canonical path, and OrbStack installs docker as a
symlink to docker-tools, which dispatches on argv[0] and exits 127 with
'unsupported argv0 "docker-tools"'. Every Docker call failed, so doctor
reported local-docker-isolation and every scanner missing and setup could
not preload the qualified images.

runProcess takes an argv0 option; docker.ts routes every Docker call
through runDocker, which passes 'docker'. The native watchdog's execve
calls pass "docker" as argv[0] too, so its container cleanup works on the
same installs. The executed file is still the verified canonical path.

Fixes #3187

* test(cso): cover Docker and watchdog invocation through a multicall binary

A compiled fake that refuses any argv[0] but docker stands in for
OrbStack's docker-tools. Both behavior tests fail on the previous code.

Refs #3187

* fix(cso): bound the argv0 test's socket helper and probe images through OrbStack's multicall docker (#3187)

Follow-up to #3188 by Bryan Stone (@aegixx):
- the python3 spawnSync that binds the fake daemon socket gets a 30 s
  timeout; without it test/spawnsync-timeout-tripwire.test.ts fails.
- reviewer test: dockerExactImagePresent, a production probe, admits an
  image when the endpoint's canonical executable is a multicall binary
  that refuses any argv0 other than "docker". It fails on 47d639a
  (returns false) and passes with #3188.

* fix(autoplan): own the conversation after a Claude Code 2.1.300 compaction

Claude Code 2.1.300 keeps a compaction's last records in place and lists
them in compactMetadata.preservedMessages. The segment's tail, which is
also the boundary's logicalParentUuid, is written after the boundary
under the compact summary, so the parent links form a cycle that the
owned causal order never reaches. Every record after the compaction was
dropped, and the publication guard denied each later phase entry with
close_incomplete.

Such a boundary now continues from the last preserved record that is a
node of the file and not its own descendant. Boundaries without that
metadata, with a foreign preserved uuid, or with nothing kept in place
still supply no ownership.

* fix(autoplan): report a compaction-explained unreachable component as unrecognized_shape (#3194)

Follow-up to #3196 by vilano93. After the ownership walk, an owned node
the walk never reached was silently dropped, and the phase guard answered
the next phase entry with close_incomplete, which the user cannot satisfy.
When the unreachable node's ancestry ends in a cycle through a compact
boundary's logical parent, ownedCausalOrder now returns
unrecognized_shape:compaction_unreachable, the guard's existing
unverified disposition (allow with a visible warning and a guard-log
row). Orphans whose ancestor is missing (not flushed yet) and other roots
keep today's behaviour, so the fail-open surface does not widen beyond
compaction. Each node is walked once.

Gate-integrity edit: a close_incomplete denial becomes an unverified
allow for that shape only. Negative controls kept: the existing guard,
hook, guard-reasons and captured-fixture tests still deny (356 pass), and
a new case with the boundary not yet flushed still denies close_incomplete.

Intentional pin changes in #3196's own test file: the three "fails
closed" cases (tail-only segment, missing preserved metadata, foreign
preserved uuid) and the "without compactMetadata" case now expect
unrecognized_shape:compaction_unreachable instead of close_incomplete or
a silently cut transcript.

Reviewer tests: three compactions in one session stay owned and pass the
next phase entry; a 50k-record history with three compactions is decided
in ~300 ms (budget 1000 ms), so descends needs no memo.

* feat(lib): one echo sanitizer for external strings, with a Bash twin

lib/sanitize-echo.ts and bin/gstack-sanitize-echo.sh flatten CR/LF/TAB to
spaces, remove every other ASCII control byte (ESC included) and DEL,
collapse runs of spaces, and cap the result at 200 bytes of valid UTF-8
with no leading or trailing space. Every external string gstack echoes
into a message, a log line or a key=value state file goes through it
(fix wave 2026-10-15, plan rev 3 DX F8). test/sanitize-echo.test.ts runs
both twins on one table under bash, bash --posix and zsh, including a
"\nstages=" injection, ESC sequences and UTF-8 characters cut by the cap.

* fix(bun-version): judge the Bun floor under zsh and hold on an unreadable version (#3195)

Reported by mochafreddo. _gstack_bun_below word-split $_gb_core, which
zsh does not do: `[ -ne ]` errored and every error path read as "not
below", so /gstack-upgrade Step 4 accepted Bun 1.3.2 in a zsh tool shell.

- _gstack_bun_below copies the release's parsed fields into quoted
  positional parameters and compares with $((10#...)); no new _gb_*
  globals. It returns 2 when either side cannot be parsed.
- gstack_bun_status prints malformed for an unparseable version or floor
  (never ok); gstack_bun_incoming_hold holds on it with
  bun-version-unreadable: ... (BUN_VERSION_UNREADABLE), the bun path and
  its output passed through gstack_sanitize_echo. setup's own malformed
  warning is unchanged.
- /gstack-upgrade Step 4 runs the check through `bash -c` and stops on
  BUN_VERSION_UNREADABLE with a reinstall fix (never "bun upgrade").
- New result code BUN_VERSION_UNREADABLE with its troubleshooting entry;
  bin/gstack-doctor-components.sh regenerated from the table.

test/bun-version-shells.test.ts: one version table (1.3.2,
1.3.3-canary.1, 1.3.3, 1.3.14, 1.4.2, 1.10.0, 01.04.02, 2.0.0, garbage)
drives bash, bash --posix, zsh and the TypeScript twin's below();
`zsh -c '. bin/gstack-bun-version.sh; gstack_bun_status 1.3.2'` printed
ok on 47d639a and prints too-old now.

* style(cso): format #3188's runDocker call so format:cso:check passes (#3187)

Co-authored-by: capy-ai[bot] <230910855+capy-ai[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

* fix(cso): keep scanner JSON reports parseable after redaction (#3185)

Reported in #3185. The scanner path splices redactions into raw JSON, and
redactFindingSpans replaced a bare 10+ digit number
("max_memory_bytes":1145427776, an epoch) with an unquoted marker, so
JSON.parse failed and every non-trivial Semgrep run was INVALID_OUTPUT.

- lib/redact-engine.ts: redactJsonFindingSpans, a string- and
  escape-aware lexical tokenizer over one or more top-level values
  (NDJSON included). A span inside a number replaces that whole token
  (-, fraction, exponent) with the quoted marker, number by number; a
  span inside a string keeps the in-string marker, widened to whole
  escapes; a span touching several tokens, whitespace, a literal or a
  structural character returns null (withhold). Non-JSON text gets the
  plain splice. redactFindingSpans is unchanged for every other caller.
- The scan operation's declared format rides the real capture path:
  scanner-executor (scan stdout, or the report file read for outputPath
  plans) -> DockerGroup.execCapture -> runProcess -> spliceRedaction,
  which redacts the concatenated stdout once and maps each interleaved
  run onto it. Version probes and stderr stay plain; marker-only
  withholding and the cross-stream views check are kept, and the output
  is a fixpoint of that check.

Behavior change: a redacted number in a scanner report is now the string
"<REDACTED-...>" instead of an unquoted marker; non-JSON streams keep the
unquoted form (test/cso-eval.test.ts unchanged).

Intentional pin change: test/cso-scanner-release.test.ts pinned the
report read as capture(['/bin/cat', plan.outputPath]); it now pins
capture(['/bin/cat', plan.outputPath], plan.format), so the read also
carries the declared JSON format (stricter, not weaker).

* fix(browse): recover when the last tab is closed outside the CLI

Closing the last tab outside browse (for example, closing the headed
Chromium window) left the daemon wedged: the page 'close' handler removed
the tab and set activeTabId to 0, and executeCommand called
getActiveSession() first, so every later command (goto, status, even stop)
failed with "No active page" until the daemon PID was killed by hand.

closeTab() already opens a blank tab when the last tab closes; the external
close path never did. Add BrowserManager.ensureActiveTab(), which reselects
a remaining tab or opens one blank tab (concurrent callers share one
recovery), and call it before resolving the active session in
executeCommand.

Fixes #3167

* fix(browse): status and stop answer after an external close; recovery says what it did (#3167)

Follow-up to #3179 by aftabkh4n, which reopens a tab on demand.
- BrowserManager.ensureCommandTab runs before every command: status,
  stop and restart never open a tab, so a daemon whose browser or context
  is gone can still report and be stopped; any other command gets an
  active tab. A failed recovery is BROWSE_TAB_UNRECOVERABLE carrying the
  restart command (cause passed through sanitizeEcho), and a command that
  ran on a newly opened tab prints a one-line warning first.
- server.ts reads the session inside the read and write branches instead
  of before dispatch (2223 lines, cap 2224) and exposes browserManager
  and handleCommandInternal on __testInternals__ for the dispatch test.
- meta-commands.ts: handleMetaCommand no longer reads the active session
  before its switch (only snapshot and resume used it), and status prints
  getCurrentUrl() so it works with zero tabs. This file is outside the
  lane's listed ownership; no other lane or #3190 touches browse/.
- New result code BROWSE_TAB_UNRECOVERABLE and troubleshooting entries
  for it and for the old "No active page" wedge.

Reviewer test browse/test/tab-external-close-dispatch.test.ts drives the
real dispatch in a child process: status, text, goto and stop after an
external close, and the closed-context case. On 47d639a (with only the
test seam added) all five fail with "No active page".

* docs(troubleshooting): /cso INVALID_OUTPUT on Semgrep reports and OrbStack's argv0 refusal (#3185, #3187)

* fix(session-update): name the reinstall fix when an unreadable Bun holds the auto-update (#3195)

Item 11 makes every caller of gstack_bun_incoming_hold treat a Bun
version it cannot read as a hold (bun-version-unreadable,
BUN_VERSION_UNREADABLE). The session-start banner only knew
bun-too-old, so the new reason fell through to "git pull did not
finish ... gstack is not updating" with a pull-and-setup fix that does
not help.

- bin/gstack-session-update: a bun-version-unreadable banner case with
  the reinstall fix and the troubleshooting anchor; the comment that
  said a malformed version passes is corrected.

Intentional pin change: test/session-update-stages.test.ts "supported
or unparseable Bun (bun-dev (local build)) proceeds: setup decides" is
split. 1.3.14 still proceeds; bun-dev (local build) now holds with
BUN_VERSION_UNREADABLE, leaves the checkout and setup untouched, and
the banner names the reinstall fix. The fixture installs
bin/gstack-sanitize-echo.sh beside the floor helper, as a real install
of this release does. The new case fails on 47d639a.

Ownership exception granted by the coordinator for Lane A
(bin/gstack-session-update is Lane B's file; PR 1b stacks on 1a).

* fix(session-update): recover a conflicting autostash by its unmerged files

The auto-updater fast-forwards with `merge --ff-only --autostash`. When
the carried-over local edits conflict with the incoming revision, git
2.56 still exits 0 from that merge, pops the edits with conflict markers
into the live checkout, and keeps the stash entry. The recovery only ran
on a non-zero exit with "autostash" in stderr, so on git 2.56 it never
ran: the updater logged UPDATED and ran setup over a half-merged tree,
in the directory Claude Code runs hooks from. When it did run, it had two
more problems:
- `git checkout -- .` refuses unmerged paths ("error: path 'f' is
  unmerged", exit 1), so it left the markers in place anyway.
- `git stash drop` dropped stash@{0}, whatever that was. refs/stash is
  shared with every worktree of the repository, and when
  refs/stash.lock is held git cannot store the autostash at all, so the
  top entry can be someone else's.

Now the merge is judged by `git ls-files -u`, whatever its exit code.
On unmerged files after the fast-forward, autostash_recover finds the
autostash commit by the id git prints ("cannot store <id>" first, then
"Created autostash: <id>", with the merge run under LC_ALL=C and
core.abbrev=40). A moved refs/stash is only the fallback. When that id
is not a stash entry, it is anchored under refs/gstack-autostash/<UTC>.
The tree is reset to the fast-forwarded revision, which the hook check
already passed, and the stash is kept. The log line is
AUTOSTASH_CONFLICT_RECOVERED tree_reset=1 kept_stash=<id> kept_ref=<ref>.
The update then continues, so the regenerable patches are re-rendered
and setup runs as for any other move. If the commit cannot be found,
nothing is reset: the markers stay for a person, the run logs
PULL_FAILED, and setup does not run.

Files that are already unmerged before the update, from someone's own
merge, rebase or stash pop, now hold the update with PULL_FAILED
"unmerged files ...". Without that check, the recovery would take them
for its own and reset them away.

core.abbrev=40, not "no": "no" is accepted from git 2.31.0 (its release
notes), and `merge --autostash` exists from 2.27.0, so "no" would fail
every update on git 2.27-2.30.

Files:
- bin/gstack-session-update: autostash_recover, the unmerged-files check
  before the merge, the C-locale merge with its stdout kept for the id,
  and removal of the old grep-and-drop block.
- test/session-update-autostash.test.ts: 7 cases in a new describe block.
  A conflicting pop leaves no markers, keeps the edits and still runs
  setup. A user's own stash entry survives. A held refs/stash.lock gets
  the edits anchored. With a git whose merge prints nothing, a moved
  refs/stash still finds the edits; with the lock held as well, nothing
  is reset. Pre-existing unmerged files hold the checkout. A
  non-conflicting edit rides over the update (control).

Tests, on upstream 15ebd85cd:
- 5 of the 7 new cases fail against the previous session-update; the
  unmerged-files guard and the control pass on both.
- Two mutants are each caught by one new case: dropping the refs/stash
  fallback, and resetting when the edits cannot be found.
- session-update-autostash, session-update-stages,
  session-update-hook-hold and team-mode pass 63/0 with
  `--timeout 60000`. At bun's 5 s default under heavy load (one
  reading: load average 169), the three shared files timed out 8 tests
  on this branch and 17 with the previous script.

* fix(session-update): trust only git's autostash id; owe setup on a stop

An independent review of the autostash recovery (Codex gpt-6-astra,
high effort, verdict BLOCK high=1 med=2) found three defects on its rare
paths. All three are fixed here, each with a case that failed first.

- [high] The refs/stash fallback could erase local edits. When git's
  messages were unavailable, recovery took any change to refs/stash as
  its own autostash. refs/stash is shared with every worktree: if a
  sibling pushed a stash while refs/stash.lock kept git from storing
  this one, recovery took the sibling's entry and reset the checkout,
  erasing edits nothing held. Now only git's own printed id counts. A
  missing id resets nothing: the markers stay, the run logs
  PULL_FAILED. Recovery needs git's messages, so when the temp file for
  them cannot be created the update is held before the merge
  (HELD temp-file-unavailable), not merged blind.
- [med] A stop after the checkout moved lost the setup it owed. The
  failure recorded only the pull reason. Once the person resolved the
  conflict, the next check saw an unchanged HEAD and no pending stage,
  logged UP_TO_DATE, and never set up the new revision. Now a failure
  after HEAD moved records `setup` as a pending stage, retried at once.
  The unmerged-files check holds it until the conflict is resolved, and
  the pull reason is the stage's reason, so the session-start line says
  what to resolve.
- [med] An unreadable index read as "no conflicts". Both `git ls-files
  -u` checks discarded the exit status, so a failed read after a
  conflicting pop (which git exits 0 for) let setup run over the markers.
  Now a failed read stops the update with PULL_FAILED "cannot read the
  index", before the merge or after it.

Files:
- bin/gstack-session-update: autostash_recover drops the refs/stash
  fallback (and STASH_BEFORE). The temp-file hold. The ls-files exit
  status checked at both points. The pending setup stage on a failure
  after HEAD moved.
- test/session-update-autostash.test.ts: a shim(fx, name, tool, body)
  helper; the fallback case now expects a refusal; the refusal case runs
  on through resolution to setup; three new cases (unreadable index
  before and after the merge, no temp file for git's messages).

Tests, on upstream 15ebd85cd:
- The 5 changed or new cases failed on the previous commit, each on its
  defect: refs/stash trusted and recovered; UP_TO_DATE with no setup
  after resolution; UPDATED over an unreadable index, before and after
  the merge; a blind merge with no temp file.
- Against upstream's own session-update, 8 of the block's 10 cases fail.
- session-update-autostash, session-update-stages,
  session-update-hook-hold and team-mode pass 66/0 with
  `--timeout 90000`.

* fix(session-update): reap heartbeat and its sleeper on exit

The lock heartbeat subshell left its sleep 300 child orphaned when the
updater exited, so heartbeats accumulated across sessions. Track and
reap the heartbeat job (with a job-table fallback for signals between
fork and $!), give the subshell its own exit trap that kills and waits
its sleeper, and map HUP/INT/TERM to exits so the EXIT trap always runs.
Adds a fixture-driven regression test.

* test(session-update): repin the lock trap and heartbeat to #3191's cleanup shape

Intentional pin change: test/session-update-autostash.test.ts 'reclaim is
TOCTOU-safe' and 'EXIT trap is ownership-checked' pinned the one-line
EXIT trap and the 'while :; do sleep 300; ...' loop that #3191 (Jess
Sullivan) replaces with cleanup_session_update and a 'sleep 300 & wait'
heartbeat. The pins still assert the ownership-checked rm -rf, the EXIT
trap, MYPID, and that the heartbeat is killed.

* fix(session-update): move installs only through gstack-ff-update; extract hooks without tar (#3184)

Item 2 (#3189, #3191 adopted in the previous commits) and item 3 of the
fix-wave plan.

bin/gstack-ff-update <dir> <rev> is now the only code that moves an
install's tree. Inside an install-scoped lock (absolute git common dir,
the updater's TTL and mv-aside reap, a heartbeat reaped on exit) it
captures the working tree and the staged state through private indexes,
carries edits that merge cleanly (as an autostash pop would), lets the
regenerable SKILL.md/sections footprint take the target when it
conflicts, and shelves any other conflicting edit, staged change or
unmerged file into refs/gstack/rescue/<oid> (first parent the pre-update
HEAD, second the staged state; compare-and-create; gstack rescue
identity). The move is a two-way read-tree on the private index, so a
late edit or an untracked file in the way refuses with
autostash-unrecoverable and changes nothing. It sources nothing so the
held-install recovery can fetch it from the new revision.

gstack-session-update calls it instead of merge --autostash, holds a
checkout with unmerged files (unmerged-files:), and names shelved edits
at session start at most once a day with inspect, export-the-delta and
delete commands. The incoming revision is extracted for the hook check
through a private index and checkout-index with core.symlinks=false,
never tar (MSYS tar cannot create connect-chrome before its target), and
the held reason carries the failing command's flattened, control-free
stderr. Held lines print before the stage line, one case per reason
with its anchor, every path shell-quoted, no setup fix while unmerged
files exist. docs/troubleshooting.md gains the held-install recovery
forms (Git Bash, PowerShell 5.1, trial and go-back) and entries for each
new line.

design: kept_ref is refs/gstack/rescue/<oid>, refs/stash is never
touched, the quiet-merge cases become a pre-existing-ref refusal and its
recovery, pre-existing unmerged files are a HELD unmerged-files, and the
git shim pins the real binary through git --exec-path.

Intentional pin changes in existing tests:
- test/session-update-stages.test.ts: printed paths are shell-quoted;
  the bun-too-old fix runs gstack-ff-update instead of git pull.
- test/session-update-hook-hold.test.ts: the order pin looks for
  'bash "$FF_UPDATE"' instead of 'merge --ff-only'; the
  hook-check-unavailable fix no longer recommends git pull --autostash;
  installedUpdater copies gstack-ff-update beside the updater.

* fix(gstack-upgrade): Step 4 fast-forwards through gstack-ff-update (#3189)

Item 2 of the fix-wave plan, kept in its own commit so PR 1b can be
rebased onto PR 1a (which edits only Step 4's Bun floor-check line).

Step 4's `git pull --ff-only --autostash` had the same hole the
auto-updater had: a conflicting autostash exits 0 and leaves conflict
markers in the install, and the skill printed FF_OK. It now runs
bin/gstack-ff-update . origin/main after the fetch and the floor check:
exit 0 runs setup (a rescued line is relayed with its inspect, export
and delete commands), exit 4 (not a fast-forward) is the only way into
the gated reset fallback, and any other refusal stops with nothing
changed. The footprint discard moves to the reset fallback, ahead of
its stash, where the warning text already promised it.

Intentional pin changes:
- test/upgrade-template-pins.test.ts: the ff-before-reset pin looks for
  'bash bin/gstack-ff-update . origin/main'.
- test/gstack-upgrade-fresh-shell.test.ts: the C9 fence marker is
  'bash bin/gstack-ff-update'; the gstack-like fixture ships the bin.
- test/upgrade-setup-recovery.test.ts: the git-path fixtures ship
  gstack-ff-update (a stub where git itself is a stub).

* fix(setup.ps1): run under Windows PowerShell 5.1's legacy argument passing (#3130)

Item 4 of the fix-wave plan. Windows PowerShell 5.1 strips the double
quotes inside native arguments, so the bash -c script setup.ps1 handed
Git Bash arrived broken ("unexpected EOF while looking for matching").
The script now holds no double quote: `set -f; IFS=; mapfile -d '' -t
argv < $1; rm -f -- $1; exec ./setup ${argv[@]}` (empty IFS and no
globbing keep $1 and each argv entry whole). That form drops an empty
argument, so setup.ps1 refuses one before anything runs
(SETUP_PS1_EMPTY_ARGUMENT, with its troubleshooting entry).

test/setup-ps1.test.ts runs the adversarial arguments under legacy
passing (pwsh with $PSNativeCommandArgumentPassing = 'Legacy', and
powershell.exe itself on Windows) with a space in TMPDIR, plus the
empty-argument refusal. Intentional pin change: the pinned bash -c
line in "passes arguments NUL-separated through a private file to a
constant bash script" now names the quote-free script and asserts it
holds no double quote.

* fix(setup): register hooks at the $HOME path when CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR links back to it

A per-session CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR whose skills symlink to ~/.claude/skills
passed the split-brain guard, so its temporary path was written into the
global settings.json and the hooks broke once the session directory was
removed. Fall back to $HOME/.claude/skills/gstack whenever both spellings
resolve to the same tree.

Fixes #3180

* fix(setup): one sourced helper picks the hook root for setup and gstack-memorable (#3180)

bin/gstack-memorable carried a verbatim copy of setup's old canonical-root
block, so `gstack-memorable enable` under a per-session CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR
still baked the session path into settings.json after #3181 fixed setup.
The choice now lives in bin/gstack-claude-root.sh
(gstack_canonical_claude_root), sourced by both.

Intentional test changes:
- test/setup-hook-canonical-paths.test.ts: #3181's source-slicing block
  test is rewritten to source the helper (with a spawnSync timeout, which
  the sliced version lacked and the tripwire flags); the
  "honors CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR" pin moves from setup to the helper, and a new
  pin requires both callers to source it. Adds a no-$HOME-install case.
- test/setup-hook-syntax-gate.test.ts: the hook-section slice starts at the
  new assignment and the harness sources the helper.
- test/setup-claude-code-migration.test.ts, test/team-mode.test.ts: the
  partial-checkout fixtures copy the new helper setup sources.

Reviewer test: gstack-memorable enable under a per-session config dir that
links back to ~/.claude registers the $HOME path (fails on main).

Builds on #3181 by NetrioGit.

* fix(setup): remove 1.31-era unprefixed Cursor skill folders (#3133)

A 1.31 setup run from a checkout under ~/.cursor/skills linked unprefixed
<skill>/ folders there, each holding a SKILL.md symlink into the checkout.
Current setup links gstack-<skill>/ folders, and the retired-skill prune
only looks at gstack-* names, so the old folders stayed: Cursor loaded
autoplan, review and the rest twice, or kept dangling links once the
checkout moved.

Run the Claude flat-name cleanup on ~/.cursor/skills as well. Cursor
installs only gstack-* names, so no prefix gate is needed, and the helper
removes only entries proven to link into gstack (#2119), so user-owned
folders stay. It runs after linking, so a run that fails before the new
links exist keeps the old folders. Reported by @andrewkjankowski in #3084.

Fixes #3133

* fix(setup): name the skills dir in the flat-name cleanup line (#3133)

`./setup --host cursor` now runs the flat-name cleanup on
~/.cursor/skills as well as ~/.claude/skills, so the "cleaned up old
entries" line says which directory the folders were removed from.

Reviewer test for #3152 (szsunyuan): a real dir whose SKILL.md links into
gstack loses only that link and keeps the user's file; SKILL.md links into
a sibling repo named gstack-fork, a relative link, and a dangling link
outside any gstack checkout are all kept; the printed line names the
removed folders and the Cursor skills dir.

* fix(setup): install Chromium with `bun x`, and name exit 127 for what it is (#3131)

A Bun installed with winget ships no `bunx`, so setup's
`bunx playwright install chromium` exited 127 and was reported as
"offline, proxy, or blocked download?". setup now runs
`bun_cmd x playwright install chromium` through its existing bun resolver
($BUN_CMD), and bin/gstack-browser-ensure runs the bun it found on PATH
with `x`. Exit 127 gets its own text naming the resolved bun, Bun from
bun.sh, and the skip commands for Git Bash and PowerShell; other codes
keep the network hint. New troubleshooting entry:
#chromium-install-exit-127.

Intentional test changes:
- test/setup-playwright-best-effort.test.ts: the installer stub is now a
  `bun_cmd()` stub (was `bunx()`), its mark renamed bun-x-called and now
  records the args; the block under test calls bun_cmd. New winget-shaped
  cases (bun on PATH, no bunx anywhere) run setup's real bun_cmd.
- test/gstack-browser-ensure.test.ts: the fixture is winget-shaped (the
  `bun` stub handles `x`, no `bunx` on PATH); the exit-7 pin now reads
  `<stub>/bun x playwright install chromium exited 7 (...)`.

--help in gstack-browser-ensure prints the comment header only (3,24p).

* ci(windows): prove setup.ps1 on PowerShell 5.1 and the held-install recovery natively (#3130, #3184)

windows-setup job:
- setup.ps1 joins the path filter (with bin/gstack-ff-update,
  bin/gstack-claude-root.sh, bin/gstack-browser-ensure,
  docs/troubleshooting.md and test/setup-ps1.test.ts).
- powershell.exe must be Windows PowerShell 5; test/setup-ps1.test.ts runs
  with a space in TEMP and must report exactly 4 pass, 0 fail, 1 skip
  (the Linux-only missing-prerequisite case).
- A copy of the built checkout under a path with a space installs through
  `powershell.exe -File setup.ps1 --host codex`.

held-install-journey job (new, parallel):
- origin's main is this PR's tree on top of the v1.91.101.0 tree
  (47d639abf); fix-branch adds one file.
- A prefix-mode v1.91.101.0 install at the runner's ~/.claude path in
  three states (clean, dirty-conflicting, already-unmerged), with
  auto_upgrade=true and the throttle cleared: the old updater must log
  `HELD hook-check-unavailable`; the PowerShell recovery form, read
  verbatim from docs/troubleshooting.md and run under powershell.exe,
  must reach main with every local edit (only those) in one rescue ref.
  The dirty state runs it with its .\setup.ps1; the others replace that
  step with a marker.
- The trial and go-back forms move the install to fix-branch (detached)
  and back to main.
- Only then a later release whose symlink sorts before its target is
  pushed, and the new updater must log UPDATED and reach it.
- Both jobs assert the exact list of cases that ran.

The journey steps ran locally on Linux with pwsh in Legacy argument
mode as powershell.exe, a git exec-path whose ../../../bin/bash.exe is
bash, and a failing tar standing in for MSYS tar (all 9 cases passed);
the windows-latest run itself happens on the PR.

* fix(setup.ps1): resolve Git Bash in the shared order, with GSTACK_BASH as an alias and a BASH_UNAVAILABLE refusal

Follows lib/script-invocation.ts (Lane C, PR 2): GSTACK_GIT_BASH is the
override and GSTACK_BASH its deprecated alias at the same precedence;
when both are set and differ GSTACK_GIT_BASH wins and one warning prints.
An override that does not exist is refused, never skipped. Without one:
the install git --exec-path belongs to (behind a scoop shim, or a
portable Git), the folders around git.exe, %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Git,
%ProgramFiles%\Git, and last a bash on PATH whose uname -s reports MSYS;
WSL's bash (System32, WindowsApps) is rejected. A miss lists every
candidate with its rejection, then the PowerShell user-variable and
~/.claude/settings.json env recipes (BASH_UNAVAILABLE, #bash-unavailable).

test/setup-ps1.test.ts gains a 14-row pwsh-on-Linux table with every
location injected (override, alias, both set, missing override and alias,
scoop shim, per-user, portable and machine-wide Git, MSYS PATH bash, WSL
and non-MSYS rejections, missing); 11 rows fail on main. The rows mirror
Lane C's table in test/script-invocation.test.ts; they are not wired to
it, since that branch is not available here. The Windows job's expected
skip count for this file moves from 1 to 15 (the table is Linux-only).

regenerated from the table (generated; resolved by regeneration at merge).

* ci(windows-setup): give tar a POSIX path for the spaced checkout

MSYS tar reads `D:\a\_temp/...` as host:path (rsh syntax) and fails with
'Cannot open: No such file or directory' before setup.ps1 runs. The copy
target now goes through cygpath -u; setup.ps1 still gets the Windows form.

* ci(windows-setup): dereference symlinks when copying the spaced checkout

MSYS tar cannot extract connect-chrome, a symlink that precedes its target
(the #3184 failure mode), so the copy died before setup.ps1 ran. tar -h
stores the target instead.

* fix(windows): one Git Bash resolver for gstack's shebang bins (#3197)

Windows has no shebangs, and gstack had three conflicting bash lookups:
the hooks fell back to a bare PATH `bash` (often WSL's launcher), the
gbrain sync checked three fixed paths, and setup.ps1 walked up from
git.exe. lib/script-invocation.ts is now the only TypeScript resolver:
GSTACK_GIT_BASH (GSTACK_BASH as a deprecated alias, same precedence,
warning when they differ, a missing value refused), bash next to
`git --exec-path` (scoop, per-user, portable Git), the known install
paths, then a PATH bash only when `uname -s` reports MSYS/MINGW. WSL
launchers are rejected unprobed. A miss is BASH_UNAVAILABLE, listing
every candidate with its rejection reason.

Bun-shebang bins run under Bun (process.execPath, or the PATH bun inside
a compiled binary). Hooks' runBin resolves through a state-root cache
keyed by git.exe path and mtime, written by temp file plus rename, so
the hot path spawns nothing extra; the override is never cached.
wtreeFingerprint({cwd, timeoutMs}) returns {tree} | {error, kind} with
GIT_OPTIONAL_LOCKS=0 and 40-64 hex ids; the consumers move next.

Intentional pin change: test/gbrain-spawn-windows-shell.test.ts expects
forward-slashed bash paths (WIN_BASH and the GSTACK_BASH override), the
form the shared resolver returns because Bun's spawnSync on Windows
returns ENOENT for a backslash exe path containing spaces.
The copied-tree adapters in test/timeline-stop-hook-slug.test.ts and
test/plan-tune-cathedral.test.ts list the two modules spawn-bin.ts now
imports; the new fixture is registered in test/helpers/free-fixtures-data.ts. bin/gstack-doctor-components.sh is
regenerated for the new result-code row.

* fix(windows): fingerprint and gstack bins through the shared invocation (#3197)

bin/gstack-wtree was spawned by path in lib/regen.ts, lib/gate-diff/git.ts,
lib/restamp.ts and bin/gstack-evidence; gstack-slug in restamp, gate-diff
and evidence; gstack-redact in the pregate secrets check; and a bare
`bash -c` in regen, the lane selection manifest and gstack-evidence run.
On Windows each one failed to launch. All now go through
lib/script-invocation.ts, and each fingerprint consumer keeps its fail
direction while saying why:

- gstack-regen check: incomplete, `cannot fingerprint the working tree
  (gstack-wtree exited 1: <helper's own repair>)` instead of
  `(gstack-wtree failed)`; write keeps the registry label as its run id.
- gstack-gate-diff: `+nowtree` candidate, with the cause.
- gstack-restamp: RESTAMP_CONFLICT carrying the launch or exit detail
  (Windows printed `()` before).
- gstack-evidence: records without wtree (grades STALE) and warns once;
  SHA-256 repositories now get a 64-hex fingerprint.

lib/regen.ts keeps a string-returning wtreeFingerprint(repoRoot) wrapper
for lib/pregate/context.ts and lib/pregate/index.ts (files #3190 changes);
item 10b migrates them. test/script-invocation-tripwire.test.ts fails on a
new by-path or bare-bash spawn under lib/, hosts/ or a Bun bin; five sites
outside this change are listed with their owners and may only shrink.

* fix(pregate): keep framework route paths from a selection manifest (#3176)

laneFileSet parsed manifest output with `[\w.-]+` path segments, so
`app/(shop)/[id]/page.test.ts` came back as `page.test.ts`. The selected
test then matched no platform lane, its remote receipt obligation
vanished and it fell back to a local run. manifestTestPaths keeps route
segments whole (`(group)`, `[id]`, `[...slug]`, `[[lang]]`, `@slot`,
`$param`, `+page`), reads every path-shaped token on a line (JSON
arrays, quoted, `path:line`, parenthesized), and decides what is a test
file with the import graph's own isTestFile, so a test-file rule change
there (bats, #3177) reaches manifests without a second regex. A manifest
that cannot start is "unknown" (widens), like a non-zero exit.

This is the manifest-parser half of #3176 by @vocodestudios; the
import-graph half (tsconfig aliases, Next.js route mapping) ships in a
separate PR. test/pregate-manifest-paths.test.ts drives the CLI with a
bracketed route test in the fixture's Windows-only lane and asserts its
requires-remote obligation; it failed on main (requires_remote was []).

* ci(windows): windows-pregate-e2e drives the #3197 paths natively

A windows-latest job (Bun 1.4.2) builds a fixture repository and runs
gstack-restamp --dry-run, gstack-regen check and write, gstack-evidence
run and gstack-gate-diff from their TypeScript entry points, asserting a
real tree fingerprint each time; times a question-log hook cold and warm
and checks it cached its Git Bash resolution; and checks that a missing
GSTACK_GIT_BASH refuses with BASH_UNAVAILABLE and lists the candidate.
The journey runs twice: under the runner's Git for Windows and under a
pinned PortableGit 2.56.0.2 (SHA-256 verified), found only through
`git --exec-path`. gstack-pregate run joins it with item 10b. The workflow is registered in
scripts/test-pr-profile.ts FREE_ONLY_PR_FILES (no paid case reads it), recorded
as a non-behavioral HARNESS_VERSION decision in scripts/harness-version.json.

* fix(setup.ps1): resolve Git Bash by the shared fixture table (#3197)

test/setup-ps1.test.ts now drives setup.ps1 through every row of
test/fixtures/windows-bash-resolution.json, the table that pins
lib/script-invocation.ts, instead of a hand-mirrored copy. Two rows
failed and are fixed here:
- an override and alias that differ only in slash direction no longer
  print the differ warning;
- the root git --exec-path names is also searched for usr\bin\bash.exe
  (Git for Windows on arm64).

* test(windows): isolate the no-bash case and launch pregate as the product does (#3197, #3176)

windows-free-tests run 38813751242 failed two tests this layer added. Both
were fixture defects on a real Windows host, not product defects:
- gbrain-spawn-windows-shell "returns null when Windows has no bash" stubbed
  only `exists`. The resolver's PATH step asks the real Bun.which and found
  the runner's MSYS bash, which is correct. The case now also stubs
  `which` and `gitExecPath`, so it really means "no bash anywhere".
- pregate-manifest-paths spawned the extensionless bin/gstack-pregate
  directly. CreateProcess cannot exec a shebang, so nothing ran and stdout
  was "". It now launches through lib/script-invocation's runScriptSync,
  gstack's own Windows invocation, so the case runs the manifest lane end
  to end on Windows instead of being excluded.

* ci(windows): the missing-bash step survives the refusal it expects (#3197)

GitHub runs `shell: bash` as `bash -eo pipefail`, and the step's own
`set -uo pipefail` does not turn -e off. So when gstack-restamp refused, as
the step expects, `OUT=$(...)` aborted the script before `CODE=$?` and before
any output was printed: exit 1 after 0.5 s with nothing in the log (PR #3209,
job 116729693492). The capture is now `OUT=$(...) && CODE=0 || CODE=$?`.

* test(pregate): the manifest-lane case expects the host's own remote lanes (#3176)

Once 8b2f297cc made the case run on Windows, windows-free-tests run
38824886195 (shard 4) showed the expectation itself was Linux-only. pregate
owes a lane remotely when its runner platform is not the host's
(lib/pregate/workflows.ts). On a Windows host the fixture's Windows lane
runs locally, and the Ubuntu `free-tests.yml/unit` lane is the remote
obligation; that is the record Windows produced.

The case now derives the owed lanes from the host the same way. On Windows
it also requires `ran: node --test 'app/(shop)/[id]/page.test.js'`: there the
route reaches the local run only through the manifest's whole path. With a
cut manifest path (page.test.js) the local set is empty, checked through
buildContext({ platform: 'win32' }) + selectLanes.

* ci(windows-setup): expect 31 skipped setup.ps1 cases now that the shared table drives it

Layer 2 drives setup.ps1 through the 16 shared rows of

rows they run under pwsh on Linux and skip on Windows. The case list is still
asserted exactly (4 pass, 0 fail, 31 skip).

* test(ship-measure): give the CLI tests a private HOME (#3162)

Every bun run test left ~/.gstack/projects/ship-measure-cli-*/evals and
sweep-cli-fake-*/evals in the developer's real home, and the free-suite
runner flagged them ("real home changed ... Give the writer a private
HOME/GSTACK_HOME"). ship-measure's diagnostic-dir check calls
getProjectEvalDir(), which builds the eval dir from os.homedir(), and
these two CLI tests passed the real HOME while overriding only the
state root.

Both now set HOME and USERPROFILE to the test's own state dir. The
sweep test also runs on the Windows lane, where os.homedir() reads
USERPROFILE. test/ship-measure.test.ts:79 already gives its config test
a private HOME the same way. getProjectEvalDir() itself is unchanged:
whether eval history should follow GSTACK_HOME is left open in #3162.

Reviewer test for #3163 (adopted from y$un_, forrest.sun527): points the

.gstack dir appears there. Fails on 47d639a (the sentinel gets
.gstack/projects/leaked-slug/evals); passes with #3163.

* test(redact): isolate fixture git from inherited hooks

Fixture git was spawned with the parent environment, so a developer's
core.hooksPath ran on the local push and rejected it (#2967). The
helper blanks the global and system files and drops GIT_CONFIG_COUNT
and GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS. A hooksPath set in the fixture repo still runs.

* test(redact): blank GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL with /dev/null on every platform (#2967)

Follow-up to #3156 (adopted from Lockyer228): Git for Windows rejects
GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=NUL (the repo convention is EMPTY_GLOBAL_GIT_CONFIG =
'/dev/null' in lib/cso/process.ts), so both fixture helpers use /dev/null
everywhere. Reviewer test: a hooksPath in the default global files under
HOME/.gitconfig and XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config cannot reject the fixture
push; it fails with the inherited environment (the 47d639a behavior) and
passes with the isolated env.

* fix: gstack-config compares whole root paths and prints a runnable recovery command

- report_root_disagreement compared word-split values, so two variables naming
  the same directory with a space were reported as disagreeing. Compare each
  complete value instead.
- The privacy-key recovery hint single-quoted the root and left the script
  path bare; an apostrophe or space made it unrunnable. Quote with printf %q.
- On Bash 3.2 (macOS /bin/bash) a failed `.` under set -e exits before the
  `||` fallback, so a missing gstack-state-root.sh exited 1 silently and
  test/state-root-resolver-failure.test.ts failed there. Check readability first.
- The merge fixture now lives under a path with a space and an apostrophe,
  executes the printed command, and asserts same-directory variables agree.

* test(config): pin the %q-quoted recovery command and run it from a spaced install path

Follow-up to #3186 (adopted from davidfragnoli-lang). Intentional pin
change: the fix line's GSTACK_STATE_ROOT='<legacy>' pin becomes the exact
bash printf %q form of the legacy root (the PR loosened it to a prefix
check; this restores an exact pin) and the original test name is kept.
Reviewer test: copy bin/ to a path containing a space and an apostrophe;
the printed fix: command runs cleanly and flips the merged value. Fails on
47d639a (unquoted $_SELF), passes with #3186.

* test(gstack-gbrain-sync): fail when a star gitignore already ignores the pin

ensureGbrainSourceGitignored appends .gbrain-source even when git
check-ignore already excludes that path. The extra line dirties a
tracked ignore-everything gitignore.

* fix(gstack-gbrain-sync): skip the pin line when git already ignores it

ensureGbrainSourceGitignored asked only for a literal .gbrain-source
line. An ignore-everything star already excludes the pin, and the extra
line left the tracked gitignore dirty.

* fix(gbrain-sync): only a tracked .gitignore can stand in for the pin line

Follow-up to #3178 (adopted from KuroChen). The skip now requires
`git -c core.excludesFile= check-ignore -v` to name a tracked .gitignore
(not global excludes, not .git/info/exclude, not a negation), so a pin
ignored only on this machine still gets the shared line teammates need
(#1384). Tests: the two git init spawns get timeouts (they failed the
spawnSync tripwire), fixtures isolate HOME/XDG_CONFIG_HOME, and the PR's
star-gitignore fixture stages its .gitignore (intentional fixture change:
the contract is a tracked file). Reviewer tests: global excludes only,
info/exclude only, an untracked star .gitignore, and a re-include each
still append; all three fail on the PR head.

* fix(skill-end): log the completion event before the final drain (#3198)

gstack-skill-end drained and pushed before it appended its own completed
timeline event, and gstack-timeline-log backgrounded its enqueue, so a
full-tier end boundary returned with its latest event unpushed. The
completion log now runs before the drain and the logger waits for its
enqueue (one config read and a spool write; it exits early when sync is
off or the session is unattended). Every consent, secret-scan and
queue-lock gate is unchanged; the stale "local-only, never sent anywhere"
comment is replaced.

Patch and regression test from Kkkkkuro (#3198): 2 pass / 5 fail on
47d639a, 8/8 with the fix. Reviewer test: with artifacts_sync_mode off the
completion is written locally with no queue entry and no push.

* fix(pregate): map Next.js route paths and tsconfig path aliases to their tests

QUOTED excluded ( ) [ ] +, so a test naming app/(app)/page.tsx in a string

import through @/ resolved to nothing. Both were PREGATE_NO_LANE false
negatives in a Next.js App Router repo whose tests did name the files.

* fix(pregate): TypeScript alias precedence, relative extends and a no-lane explanation

Follow-up to #3176 (adopted from vocodestudios). Path aliases now follow
TypeScript's choice: an exact pattern, else the wildcard with the longest
prefix, targets tried in order. When the chosen pattern resolves nothing,
every plausible reading (other matching patterns, baseUrl, the repo root)
gains the edge, so uncertainty selects more tests, never fewer. Relative
extends chains are followed up to MAX_TSCONFIG_EXTENDS (4) hops, with
baseUrl and paths resolved against the config that declares them.
Trailing commas are dropped by the JSONC tokenizer (never inside a string)
instead of a whole-text regex.

A touched file with no lane now gets explain lines naming the import
specifiers in test files that resolved to no repo file, any extends hop
that was not followed (with the limit), and the hint to declare the file
under dependencies or report the resolver gap. The lines ride testsFor's
provenance, which lanes already pushes to --explain.

Reviewer tests: overlapping aliases in both key orders, exact vs
wildcard, target fallback, the union case, a two-hop extends chain, a
string containing ',]', and the depth-limit explanation. Five fail on the
PR head; all 12 pass. The manifest-parser half of #3176's follow-up
(lane-selection.ts) ships in PR 2.

* fix(browse): reap PTY children on agent shutdown

* fix(browse): reap a terminal-agent PTY's whole process group at shutdown (#3147)

Follow-up to #3148 (adopted from Y4NN777). The PTY child leads its own
session and process group; its identity (pgid, sid, leader start time) is
recorded at spawn and stays checkable after the leader exits. Disposal
schedules a group reap after PTY_SHUTDOWN_GRACE_MS that, unlike the
direct-child SIGKILL fallback, is not cancelled when the leader exits, and
shutdown reaps every pending group before exiting, so descendants that
ignore SIGHUP no longer outlive the agent. Only proven members are
signalled: same pgid and sid, started no earlier than the leader, and
nothing at all when the leader's PID is held by a process with another
start time. Linux only (/proc); other platforms keep the direct-child
behavior. During the shutdown grace the server answers 503 and no new PTY
is spawned.

Test changes to the PR's own test (intentional): the agent is spawned
with process.execPath and the PTY child traps INT TERM HUP, so the case
proves the SIGKILL fallback instead of passing on the kernel hangup.
Reviewer tests: a HUP-immune grandchild is dead within the grace plus 1 s;
an early-exiting leader's surviving descendant is reaped; a session that

* test(model-policy): track the upload-artifact v7.0.2 pin from #3175

Intentional pin change: test/model-policy-workflow.test.ts asserted
actions/upload-artifact@043fb46d…; dependabot #3175 moves the workflow to
cf430e03… (v7.0.2, verified against the upstream tag). The pin tracks the
workflow. #3175's free-tests.yml hunk is left out of this PR (free-tests.yml
is a #3190 file; it is re-bumped in PR 5).

* test(model-policy): its upload-artifact pin matches the eval workflows' pin

Reviewer test for dependabot #3175: the model-policy workflow's single
upload-artifact pin equals the pin evals.yml, evals-periodic.yml and
windows-free-tests.yml use, so a group bump that misses one workflow (or
the hard-coded pin above) is caught here.

* build(deps): hold Playwright minor/major bumps behind the windowsHide patch (#2923)

Dependabot #2923 bumped playwright to ^1.64.0 and dropped the
patchedDependencies entry keyed to playwright-core@1.62.1, which keeps
windowsHide on Windows (#2160, #1989). The bun ecosystem now ignores only
semver-minor and semver-major updates for playwright and playwright-core;
patch updates still flow. The 1.64 migration (re-key the patch, the
Dia/cookie qualification pins, the arm64 artifact name) is filed with
owner Garry, revisit 2026-11-15. Test fails on 47d639a (no ignore rule).

* docs(readme): drop the stale skill lists users pasted into CLAUDE.md (#3169)

README's install prompt and troubleshooting block each carried a skill
list for CLAUDE.md; both were stale (18 shipped skills missing) and they
disagreed. Claude Code lists installed skills itself, so both now keep
only the /browse rule, and the troubleshooting entry says to delete an
old pasted list. New free test: any comma-separated skill list in
README.md or CLAUDE.md must name exactly the shipped skills (with a
negative control for the detector). Fails on 47d639a; passes now.
Reported by the #3169 issue author. The matching doctor warning for
pasted lists ships in PR 5.

Intentional pin change: test/test-value-bar.test.ts no longer expects the
README skill list to name /test-audit twice; it now expects that list to
be gone (0 occurrences), the registration this commit removes on purpose.

* chore(osv): image-size has a fix; html-to-docx's ^1.0.0 pin blocks it (#2753)

The image-size ledger said no fixed release exists. OSV lists 2.0.3 as
fixed for GHSA-5p2g-fcmc-qvqq and GHSA-w3rx-r6r6-pgpr (checked against
api.osv.dev), but html-to-docx@1.8.0 pins image-size ^1.0.0 and there is
no fixed 1.x, so the fix is a cross-major override. Both entries now say
so and name the upgrade trigger; the 2026-11-30 expiry is kept. New test
checks the wording and that bun.lock still shows the stated pin (it fails
on 47d639a). Correction first raised on #2753 by sonukapoor.

* feat(ios-qa): forward GSTACK_IOS_LAUNCH_ENV to devicectl launches (#1796)

Reimplements only the launch-environment half of #1796 (credit
Bmathews721; the session-cache half is superseded by #3132's design and
had state-root and symlink-write problems). devicectl.ts parses
GSTACK_IOS_LAUNCH_ENV as a JSON object of string to string;
launchEnvArgs() returns the --environment-variables argv (empty when
unset or {}) and launchApp passes it before the bundle id. Invalid JSON, a
non-object, a non-string value, a bad name or a key in the debug bridge's
reserved GSTACK_ namespace refuses before any launch with the new result
code IOS_LAUNCH_ENV_INVALID (the detail names keys and types, never
values). launchEnvArgs is exported for the forced-relaunch path in
tunnel-bootstrap.ts.

Adds the result-code row (bin/gstack-doctor-components.sh regenerated by
gen:skill-docs), a troubleshooting entry under its exact text, the
pregate-no-lane entry's explain note, and the how-to section with an
example. New test fails on 47d639a (module load: no parseLaunchEnv).

* fix(deps): declare sharp and clear two transitive advisories

sharp is imported in four files, including browse/src/screenshot-size-guard.ts,
and test/dependency-security.test.ts asserts a >=0.35.4 floor on it and loads
it. It was declared in no dependency field, reaching the tree only through
@huggingface/transformers with the overrides pin forcing the version. Declare it
at ^0.35.4, matching the floor that test already asserts.

Upgrade @huggingface/transformers to ^4.3.0, which clears sprintf-js@1.1.3 and
aligns the sharp override with what the parent declares: 4.2.0 declared
sharp ^0.34.5 while the override pins 0.35.5, which is outside that range, and
4.3.0 declares ^0.35.4.

Upgrade @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk to 0.2.141, which clears
@anthropic-ai/sdk@0.81.0.

The existing overrides entry for sharp is left in place.

* test(deps): sharp is declared and its override satisfies every asking range

Reviewer test for #3145 (adopted from sonukapoor): sharp must be a
declared dependency, and the pinned overrides.sharp must satisfy both
that declaration and every lockfile package that depends on sharp
(@huggingface/transformers included). Fails on 47d639a (sharp not
declared; transformers 4.2.0 asked for ^0.34.5 against a 0.35.5 pin).

Classifier smoke on the changed tree (transformers 4.3.0,
onnxruntime-node 1.30.0, sharp 0.35.5, claude-agent-sdk 0.2.141): the real
sidecar entry bundled for Node with a private state root, and the
classifier in-process under Bun, each downloaded the TestSavantAI model
fresh, reported testsavant: ok, and returned scores identical to
47d639a's tree on five inputs, including a >512-token input that
exercises the truncation override. dependency-security, deps-smoke,
overlay-sdk-cancel-eof, security-classifier and screenshot-size-guard
pass; typecheck:test reports no new diagnostics.

* fix(gbrain-sync): the no-bash skip names GSTACK_GIT_BASH and how to set it (#3197)

The brain-sync stage's Windows skip line told users to set GSTACK_BASH.
After the fix wave the canonical override is GSTACK_GIT_BASH, with
GSTACK_BASH as a deprecated alias (plan correction 9). The summary is now
the exported NO_BASH_SUMMARY: it names GSTACK_GIT_BASH first and GSTACK_BASH
as the old name, and gives the two recipes that reach Claude Code (a
PowerShell user environment variable plus a Claude Code restart, or the
"env" block of ~/.claude/settings.json).

Minimal on purpose: once PR 2 lands, this switches to
lib/script-invocation.ts noBashMessage(). Until then lib/gbrain-exec.ts
still reads only GSTACK_BASH, so this line is accurate only with PR 2
merged first.

New test test/gbrain-sync-no-bash-message.test.ts fails on the previous
commit (NO_BASH_SUMMARY not exported) and passes now.
Handoff from Lane C (PR 2).

* fix(ios-qa): the forced relaunch carries GSTACK_IOS_LAUNCH_ENV too (#1796)

bootstrapTunnel's relaunchApp (an app whose boot token an earlier daemon
consumed is relaunched once with --terminate-existing) built its own
devicectl argv and dropped GSTACK_IOS_LAUNCH_ENV, so an env-gated debug
bridge vanished after the one relaunch the howto says carries it. It now
uses launchEnvArgs(); an invalid value refuses the relaunch with
launch_failed and the IOS_LAUNCH_ENV_INVALID detail before anything is
terminated.

Two new tests in ios-qa/daemon/test/devicectl-launch-env.test.ts drive
bootstrapTunnel through a consumed-token device: both fail on the previous
commit (relaunch argv lacks --environment-variables; the invalid value
still terminates and relaunches) and pass now. ios-qa daemon: 167 pass.
tunnel-bootstrap.ts was assigned to Lane D by the coordinator for this fix.

* ci(version-gate): check the version queue only on PRs into main

Stacked layer PRs carry no VERSION stamp by design (the release layer stamps
once), so the queue check failed on any layer touching package.json. The
queue and its collision rule only describe main; a PR into main is still
checked exactly as before.

* test(browse): scope the SIGTERM PTY-reap case to POSIX signals (#3147)

windows-free-tests run 38813751242 (shard 6) failed "SIGTERM reaps every
active PTY child before terminal-agent exits" with "timed out waiting for
pty-child.pid", serially and on retry.

Diagnosis: invalid test expectation on Windows, not an agent defect the
test can observe. The contract under test is the agent's graceful
shutdown, its process.on('SIGTERM'/'SIGINT') cleanup in terminal-agent.ts.
On Windows, Bun's subprocess.kill('SIGTERM') is libuv's TerminateProcess,
so that handler never runs there; and the PTY fixture is an extension-less
`#!/bin/bash` script, which CreateProcess cannot launch, so the child never
starts (the timeout is at the pid file, after the port, token, grant and
WebSocket all succeeded). The file's other integration cases were already
Linux-scoped; this one now skips only on win32 and still runs on Linux and
macOS. The pure ownership unit tests in the file keep running on Windows.

Open, not covered by any test: whether a ConPTY child outlives a
hard-terminated agent on Windows. Testing it needs a Windows-launchable
terminal fixture, which BROWSE_TERMINAL_BINARY (one executable, fixed argv)
cannot express without a product change.

* fix(plan-review): bound the native outside voice without TaskOutput (#3182)

Claude Code 2.1.277 removed TaskOutput, so the plan-review native fallback's
preflight always failed and users without the Codex CLI never got a second
voice. The fallback now uses primitives the host still enforces: a background
`sleep 300` Bash timer (its exit re-invokes the parent; the 2.1.300 sleep block
applies only to foreground commands), a background Plan dispatch whose
completion arrives as a <task-notification>, and TaskStop for whichever task
loses. Only a matching completed notification that beats the timer counts;
interim ("is waiting on its own background work"), turn-limit, foreground and
late results get no credit. The "[Subagent hand-back]" header (2.1.277) is
treated as framing.

The unavailable line now names its cause and fix, ends with
OUTSIDE_VOICE_UNAVAILABLE (new result code + troubleshooting entry), and the
review-log row carries unavailable_reason. The bounded-wait prose was
tightened so plan-ceo-review and plan-eng-review stay under their existing
size ceilings (no ratchet raise for this item).

Intentional pin change: test/run-in-background-guidance.test.ts
hasBoundedOutsideVoiceWait and the dispatch-contract cases now pin the
timer/notification/TaskStop contract instead of TaskOutput's envelope.
bin/gstack-doctor-components.sh is regenerated from lib/result-codes.ts.

Reported by HuellintonMota in #3182.

* feat(bin): gstack-ceo-plan-find locates the CEO plan for a branch (#280)

/plan-ceo-review saves its scope decisions under the state root's
ceo-plans/, but no plan review can find them: only /design-html reads
that directory, newest file first. This helper is the CEO-plan sibling of
gstack-design-doc-find, so /plan-eng-review can call one command instead
of a glob in prose.

It prints the newest top-level plan whose "Branch:" header names the
branch, compared the way gstack-slug writes BRANCH (feat/x matches
feat-x), else the newest plan, else nothing. Subdirectories are not
read. A usage error exits 2.

* fix(plan-eng-review): read the CEO plan in the Design Doc Check (#280)

/plan-eng-review never looked in ceo-plans/, so an eng review after
/plan-ceo-review ran without the scope that review accepted, deferred or
skipped. capy-ai closed #414 asking for this focused fix, and TODOS.md
scopes it as a gstack-ceo-plan-find sibling of gstack-design-doc-find.

The Design Doc Check now prints "CEO plan found: <path>" or "No CEO plan
found" after the design doc line, and the prose says what to read the
plan for. The data-not-instructions rule names the CEO plan too, since
another agent may have written it. Only plan-eng-review changes: the
shared {{DESIGN_DOC_DISCOVERY}} block and the branch-scoped review log
are untouched. Reported by @chancheuklap in #280.

main left plan-eng-review 4 bytes under its parity cap, so the +325
bytes raise maxSizeRatio to the measured 1.2196, noted the way earlier
growth was.

Fixes #280

* fix(plan-eng-review): disclose a CEO plan borrowed from another branch (#280)

Review changes on top of #3159 (szsunyuan / y$un_):
- gstack-ceo-plan-find keeps stdout a bare path or empty; when it falls back
  to another branch's plan it prints one stderr line,
  "CEO plan found (from branch <b>, not <current>): <path>", with control
  characters stripped from the plan header ("unknown" when it has none).
- The Design Doc Check tells an interactive reviewer to ask before using such
  a plan, and a spawned session to use it and quote the disclosure.
- The Design Doc Check prose is tightened so plan-eng-review fits the
  owner-approved 1.2196 ceiling (measured 151,950 / 124,597 = 1.2195).

Reviewer tests: test/ceo-plan-find-cross-branch.test.ts (5 of 7 fail on the

Co-authored-by: capy-ai[bot] <230910855+capy-ai[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
#3159 head). The design-doc finder's matching disclosure stays deferred.

* fix(test): credit abutting section chunks whose edge bytes repeat (#3182)

detectSectionReads trims the longest suffix/prefix overlap between
consecutive Bash outputs. Two chunks that abut exactly (tail -c +N after a
chunk ending at N-1) can share an edge byte by chance; the trim then drops a
real byte and a fully printed section reads as incomplete. #3182's
review-sections edit moved plan-ceo-review's 66,999-byte boundary onto
"cur|rent", which turned the existing byte-range test red. The detector now
also checks the plain concatenation; a gap still refuses.

Detector/fixture defect, not a product change. New regression case in
test/section-capture-native-tools.test.ts fails without the fix.

* fix(qa): probe each documented input rule, not only its boundary values

The paid gate's qa-functional-cli-report run (38829994639) probed zero and an
unsafe integer but never a non-digit amount, so it missed the planted
parseInt defect ("Amounts contain only ASCII digits") and reported no
defect. The functional contract map's invalid-input row now asks for one
probe per documented input rule (allowed characters, format, sign, range,
arity).

test/qa-functional-prompt.test.ts replays a captured CI Read of
system-functional.md; its completed-method variant now feeds the current
section bytes, so the validator check keeps its omitted/pending negative
controls without pinning the old wording.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

* fix: question-tuning commands carry no free text

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

design-approval-flow now writes the feedback file (with quotes, backticks and

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

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

* chore: regenerate after the free-text mktemp guard

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

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

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

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

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

The branch check reads headRepository/headRefName from gh's JSON into quoted

those variables instead of model-substituted names. The postfail test now pins
the variable form it replaces.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

* fix: type the handoff hook's line filter

* fix: repairs from the integrated free suite

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Garry Tan b9706f3635 v1.88.1.0 fix: harden credential boundaries and owned state (#2942)
* fix(settings): preserve symlinked settings targets

Resolve the selected target for locking, mutation, backup, and rollback; refuse target changes and preserve private modes. Addresses #2830.

* fix(redact): bind masking to original detected spans

Inspired by #2929's anchored-span diagnosis; independently implemented using normalization offsets. Addresses #2930 and the relocation portion of #2912 without changing detection sensitivity.

* fix(evals): exclude operator credentials from prefix admission

Adapts the credential-suffix screen proposed in #2636, with real launched-child regression coverage and deliberate provider-auth exceptions.

Preserve the exact user-owned suffix and publish only a successfully assembled replacement. Independently implements the repair reported in #2907.

* test(cso): verify exact masked reads and unmaskable payload refusal

* fix(cso): preserve exact filesystem identities through lease recovery

Preserve 64-bit device/inode identity and nanosecond race checks. Add native NTFS lifecycle coverage for #2927; retain ambiguous legacy-state refusal without claiming Windows PID-reuse recovery is resolved.

* fix(redact): bind pre-push scans to destination and preserve seam context

Uses #2935 (bd07318) as source evidence for push-target range and slice-overlap defects. Independently implemented; no cherry-pick or release metadata adoption.

* test(ci): gate native agent ownership and settings links on macOS

* fix(browse): bind agent lifetimes and cleanup to owned generations

Uses #2931 by Chris Hutton / Claude Fable 5.1 as attributed design input; independently implemented without broad sweeps or copied code. Keep uncertain children and locks rather than deleting foreign state.

* test(ci): include concurrent shutdown controls in the native macOS gate

* v1.88.1.0 fix: harden credential boundaries and owned state

* fix(redact): preserve target provenance and scan boundary semantics

caba78fefa v1.83.0.0 feat: Memorable recall bridge, opt-in and receipted (supersedes #2831) (#2836)
* feat: add optional Memorable workflow memory

(cherry picked from commit 6bd5d477b2)

* fix: refuse the second registration, and say what leaves the machine

Two things the first cut got wrong.

Memorable's own installer registers the same UserPromptSubmit hook, under its
own name and outside gstack's table. `memorable start`, `memorable setup` and
`memorable install-hooks` all do it, and that is the documented way to install
the CLI, so on most machines it is already there before gstack is asked.
Registering ours beside it ran the same command twice on every prompt: context
injected twice, and the session captured twice against the user's own
extraction allowance. `enable` now looks for it and refuses, naming the entry
and the file it lives in; `status` says who registered it rather than reporting
none. Matched on the command rather than on a tag, for the reason the hook
table already gives: Claude Code rewrites settings and private tags do not
survive it.

The removal instruction says to delete the entry by hand because Memorable has
no command that removes its own hook. `uninstall-hooks` is not a command in
0.5.18; it answers "unknown command".

The README said "Memorable, not gstack, owns the captured data and any network
access", which answers the question by pointing away from it. It now carries a
per-command table of exactly what leaves the machine, in the shape the adopted
gbrain section uses, and it is explicit that the hook makes no network call of
its own, that every row is the third-party CLI acting under its own consent,
and that `gstack-egress` will therefore not show any of it. Under it, the split
between what gstack pin-tests (the gating and the wiring) and what is
Memorable's claim (storage, sending, and what disable and forget erase).

The CHANGELOG entry is removed. This file has never carried an [Unreleased]
heading; every entry is a version and a date, written at release. The text is
in the pull request for whoever cuts the next one.

Three tests added: enable refuses and touches neither consent nor settings when
Memorable already holds the hook, status names that registration, and a foreign
UserPromptSubmit hook is not mistaken for Memorable's.

(cherry picked from commit e0899afa8c)

* docs: a guide for the Memorable bridge, in the gbrain-sync shape

README carries the section and the egress table; this is the page it links to
for anyone who wants the whole thing. Same shape as docs/gbrain-sync.md, which
is the closest thing in the repo: an optional integration whose interesting
questions are all about what leaves the machine and how to turn it off.

What it covers that the README cannot at that length: that the hook sees every
Claude Code prompt rather than only the ones a skill produced; that capture is
a separate consent from this bridge, so turning the bridge off does not turn
capture off; what to do when Memorable has already registered the hook itself,
which is the common case because its own installer does it; and why the hook
has no loud failure path.

The egress table is repeated here rather than linked, because the sentence it
is answering ("what does this send") is the one somebody arrives on this page
already asking.

(cherry picked from commit 5c108cc0f7)

* feat(settings-hook): identity-aware remove-source + read-only list-items

remove-source used to inspect only entries still carrying the
_gstack_source tag. Claude Code strips that tag when it rewrites
settings.json, so an off switch built on remove-source alone silently
no-oped on exactly the entries it was written for. Removal is now driven
by KNOWN_HOOKS identity for the requested source (tagged or not), keeps
the tagged-single-item legacy-stray rule, never touches another source's
items, and leaves entries with nothing of ours byte-identical.

list-items is the read-only view of the same identity table: one JSON
string literal per matching hook command, filters (--owned-by,
--command-regex as a JavaScript RegExp) applied inside the JS, empty
stdout for no match, and the mutating verbs' exit codes (1 usage, 3
unparseable settings, 4 unexpected shape) so callers can decide
mutations from its output without parsing raw command strings.

* feat(config): memorable_recall consent key (on|off, default off, reject-and-preserve)

The gstack-side gate for the Memorable UserPromptSubmit bridge. `on` lets
a Claude Code hook hand every prompt to a third-party binary, so the key
follows the codex_reviews rule: an invalid value is rejected and the
stored value kept, never coerced in either direction. Registered in all
four places gstack-config keeps in sync (annotated header, DEFAULTS
table, the set validator, and both enumeration loops). Memorable's own
capture consent (`memorable enable`) is a separate thing gstack never
sets.

* feat(hooks): memorable-user-prompt-hook.ts — consent gate, deny veto, HIGH-tier pre-scan, fail-closed receipt, trust envelope; runExternal in spawn-bin

The PR's hook exec'd the vendor binary with the full environment and
passed its stdout to Claude verbatim. It is now the house pattern: a
fail-open bash shim over a .ts twin that (1) gates on the memorable_recall
consent key, (2) skips repos whose trust policy is deny or read-only,
(3) scans the prompt (raw bytes and decoded string leaves) and refuses to
hand over a HIGH-tier credential shape, (4) writes a fail-closed egress
receipt naming the local executable it ran, (5) spawns the vendor in its
own process group with an allowlisted environment and group-kills it on
timeout, (6) accepts only a string additionalContext back, caps it at
8 KiB on a UTF-8 boundary and wraps it in the trust envelope, and (7)
records an `output-written` outcome after the stdout write completes.
One deadline clock (4.5 s) undercuts Claude Code's 5 s kill and bounds
both ledger writes through the new lockBudgetMs option on
writeReceipt/writeOutcome (default unchanged).

spawn-bin gains runExternal for external executables (detached group,
stderr drained, stdin EPIPE handled, stdout capped, win32 refused).
The wiring test pins the sink fail-closed and sweeps hosts/.

* fix(gstack-memorable): canonical hook path, no vendor consent, --timeout 5, identity-based status, verified disable, lifecycle lock

enable used to bake the hook path from whatever tree the CLI ran in and
to run the vendor's own `memorable enable` (its consent for storing AND
uploading session traces) before registering anything. It now resolves
the canonical install like setup does and refuses when that install does
not carry this bridge (version and hook-twin check), registers through
the canonical hook manager with --timeout 5, records gstack's own consent
in memorable_recall, never executes the vendor, and restores the captured
prior state if consent cannot be recorded. disable flips the gate first,
removes the entry by identity (tag or no tag), verifies both states and
reports partial failure instead of a blended success. status reads only:
resolution path, gate, registration by identity (gstack / vendor-own /
both / unknown), mismatch lines, receipt count, recent hook errors. enable
and disable serialise under a lock with stale takeover. Windows is
refused (TODOS.md D21). Exit codes mirror the hook manager (3/4/5).

* fix(setup): --no-team sweep keeps the opt-in gstack-memorable hook

`./setup --no-team` finishes its teardown with `prune-stale --all`, which
removes every KNOWN_HOOKS item. The Memorable bridge hook is a
user-registered opt-in unrelated to team mode, exactly like verify-gate,
so it joins the sweep exclusion list. The verify-gate pin now accepts the
comma-extended list; a schema-aware case proves the exclusion keeps both
opt-ins (tagged or tag-stripped) while the uninstall sweep still removes
them.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(uninstall): named gstack-memorable arm, vendor-consent notice, honest kept config

The identity sweep already removed the Memorable bridge hook as an
unnamed stray. It now has a named arm like every other source, so the
summary says what went, and says plainly that Memorable's own consent
(if the user granted it) is theirs to revoke. Under --keep-state the kept
config is set memorable_recall=off so it never claims a hook that is
gone. The canonical-paths pins cover the sixth KNOWN_HOOKS row and the
new uninstall source.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(egress): memorable-recall row in gstack-egress grants

`gstack-egress grants` promises every standing consent in force with the
command that revokes it. The Memorable bridge's memorable_recall key is
one, so it gets a row: off by default, granted only when
`gstack-memorable enable` set it, revoked by `gstack-memorable disable`.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(memorable): accurate bridge guide; README row, Docs table, privacy pointer; PROJECT_STRUCTURE

The README section becomes one row in the Standalone binaries table (the
shape every other binary uses) plus a Docs-table row and one Privacy
bullet saying that optional third-party bridges are off by default and
receipted. The guide now separates the two consents, says what gstack
hands to the vendor binary and what the receipt can and cannot attest,
attributes every statement about the vendor's network activity to the
vendor, describes the hook manager accurately (identity via KNOWN_HOOKS,
list-items vs list-sources, rollback is whole-file), states the Claude
Code hot-reload behaviour, adds a troubleshooting runbook, and keeps the
contributors' credit in the CHANGELOG idiom.

* chore(todos): Memorable bridge follow-ups

Filed from the CEO and eng reviews of the bridge fix-up: the generic
third-party hook seam, Windows support (deferred whole), the envelope
kind parameter, a vendor payload-minimization contract, a latency and
timeout revisit, resolver and canonical-root consolidation, a
non-interactive MEDIUM-tier redaction policy for hooks, and adopting
list-items at setup's plan-tune check.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(settings-hook): list-items --owned-by with --command-regex intersects

When both filters are given, an item must satisfy both: owned by the
requested source AND matching the pattern. Before, the regex branch
skipped every owned row, so the combination could never match.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(gstack-memorable): compat_check reads list-items output before grepping

Under pipefail, piping the probe straight into grep -q let a non-zero
probe exit mask the match, so a hook manager without list-items was
sometimes reported as compatible. Capture the output, then grep.

* test: coverage for the memorable bridge (remove-source regression for every KNOWN_HOOKS source)

- settings-hook: identity removal pinned for each source in KNOWN_HOOKS;
  list-items unknown flag and combined --owned-by/--command-regex
- gstack-memorable: enable/disable failure paths (lock give-up exit 5
  with the test-only lock timeout override, consent-write failures
  guarded by canRevokeWrites, canonical-version mismatch, no-bun status)
- hook: non-object JSON, missing cwd, non-ASCII bytes, held-open stdin,
  shim without bun, stripControl, resolveVendor, runExternal ENOENT
- egress-receipt: lockBudgetMs 0 and writeOutcome on garbage input
- uninstall: no memorable entry present reports nothing removed

* perf(redact-engine): line/col by binary search over a per-scan line index

lineColAt walked the input from offset 0 for every finding, so a match-dense
input (a pasted log full of emails and IPs) cost O(findings x bytes): 128 KiB
took ~400 ms and 900 KiB tens of seconds. The line starts are now indexed once
per scan, on the first finding, and each finding is a binary search.

* feat(gbrain-repo-policy-client): repoPolicyTier accepts a spawn timeout

The policy script spawn was fixed at 10 s, more than twice the memorable
hook's whole budget. Callers on their own deadline pass what they can afford;
a timeout reads as unreadable and polarity stays the caller's.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(spawn-bin): runExternal resolves on the child's exit, keeps stdin errors advisory

- A vendor that exits 0 but leaves a background child holding its pipes was
  held to the deadline, group-killed and reported as a timeout with its
  answer dropped. 'exit' now starts a short stdout drain, then resolves with
  the real exit code and kills whatever still holds the group.
- EPIPE on the child's stdin (it answered before reading a large input) is
  reported as stdinError, separate from error, so a delivered answer is not
  classified as a spawn failure.
- Stdio streams are destroyed and the child unref'd on resolve so a straggler
  cannot pin the hook process; tail/grace/drain sizes are named constants.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(hooks): memorable hook closes the review army's gaps

- Vendor failures are logged even with empty stderr (a silently hanging
  vendor taxed every prompt invisibly); the stderr tail is withheld when the
  redaction engine finds a credential or PII shape in it; hook-errors.log is
  created 0600.
- Trust-policy veto fails closed when git cannot run or answer in time (it
  read as 'no remote' before); the policy script spawn is bounded by the
  hook's clock; a payload cwd that is not a directory falls back.
- Each secret scan is admitted by the deadline clock (the engine's cost grows
  with match density); stdin is decoded once.
- The pre-spawn gate re-check logs a config failure instead of swallowing it;
  an incomplete stdin read is named as such, not as 'not JSON'.
- Carriage returns are stripped with the other controls.
- The vendor env allowlist adds the standard proxy, TLS and XDG variables so
  a vendor behind a corporate proxy or private CA still reaches its service.
- A stdin EPIPE on a delivered answer is recorded in the outcome, not treated
  as a spawn error.
- Stage caps and the truncation marker are named constants; a test-only
  GSTACK_MEMORABLE_TEST_BUDGET_MS can shorten (never widen) the budget.

* fix(gstack-memorable): lock staleness from the directory mtime; honest messages

- A contender that looked between the holder's mkdir and its ts write read a
  missing ts as 0, called the lock stale and reclaimed it; staleness now comes
  from the lock directory's own mtime (the settings-hook idiom).
- The ensure-event failure is no longer labelled 'warning'; the consent-write
  rollback message says what was actually kept; a removal that left no entry
  is reported on stdout, not as an error; receipts are counted from the
  filtered JSON array, not a formatting artefact; the resolution order and
  lock tuning are named once.

* fix(uninstall): memorable_recall goes off whether or not state is kept

gstack-config resolves its root through GSTACK_STATE_ROOT/GSTACK_HOME, which
can differ from the STATE_DIR uninstall removes; a full uninstall could leave
memorable_recall=on in a config that survived. Flipped only when currently on.

* test: pin the review-army fixes for the memorable bridge

Nonce-scoped orphan checks (the system-wide ps grep could see another
shard's sleeper); exit-with-lingering-grandchild; advisory stdin EPIPE;
withheld stderr; vendor timeout logged with empty stderr; CR stripping;
budget seam; rate-limit expiry and 0600 log; unreadable policy store fails
closed; file-as-cwd fallback; mtime-based lock staleness and the mkdir gap.

* docs(memorable): vendor environment allowlist and stderr policy; two follow-ups

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(hooks): memorable hook second-pass review fixes

- Trust-policy lookup fails closed on any git failure that is not 'no such
  remote' or 'not a git repository' (a corrupt or unreadable .git/config and
  dubious ownership exit 128 and used to read as 'no remote').
- pickAdditionalContext takes the first complete top-level JSON object, so a
  vendor whose background helper appends a line to stdout (or prints a banner
  first) does not lose its answer.
- The hook-errors.log rate limiter keys on a stable string (a vendor's
  timestamped stderr no longer defeats it); the log is chmod 0600 on every
  append because sibling hooks create the same file without a mode.
- Scan admission is sized by payload bytes (scan() is uninterruptible).
- The receipt payload class is a stable token; the prose moved to the docs.
- Header, constants and comments match the behaviour (silent skips vs logged
  refusals; HIGH/MEDIUM withholding; STAGE_CAP_MS scope; runExternal in the
  spawn-bin header; the ledger lock budget doc).

* fix(gstack-memorable): stale-lock takeover by atomic rename; comments match behaviour

Two contenders that both saw a stale lock could both reclaim it with rm -rf;
the settings-hook idiom (mv to a private name, exactly one winner) is used
instead. The hook-manager fallback comment now says every verb falls back.

* test: second-pass coverage for the memorable bridge

Policy lookup outcomes (plain dir, repo without policy, corrupt .git/config
fails closed); repoPolicyTier timeoutMs; line/col at line starts, after blank
lines, CRLF and first char; tolerant first-JSON-object parsing; keyed rate
limit; uninstall never creates a config just to say off and flips consent in
a GSTACK_STATE_ROOT outside the removed state dir.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(hooks): memorable hook survives host termination and brace-bearing banners

- The bash shim runs bun as a job and forwards SIGTERM/SIGINT/SIGHUP (bash
  holds a signal until a foreground child exits); the .ts kills the in-flight
  vendor's process group on the way out (runExternal exposes the group kill
  through onSpawn), so a hook the host terminates cannot leave the vendor
  running with the prompt on its stdin.
- The tolerant stdout parser tries every complete top-level object (bounded)
  and takes the first carrying a string additionalContext, so a banner with
  braces or quotes, or a progress object, no longer costs the answer.
- git runs with LC_ALL=C and the not-a-repository check is anchored to the
  start of its message: a localized git or a repository path containing the
  phrase can no longer flip the lookup.
- The rate limiter remembers up to 32 live keys, so alternating failures cost
  two lines, not one per prompt.
- Unicode format characters (bidi overrides, zero-width spaces) are stripped
  from vendor text at egress; the zero-width joiner stays for emoji.
- A killed child (timeout, ENOBUFS) resolves on exit without the stdout drain,
  and the post-kill grace is 100 ms, so the timeout outcome fits the reserve.
- The ledger size warning, which the host discards from an exit-0 hook's
  stderr, is logged where status looks.

Under parallel shard load a child that merely exits fast raced the write and

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(hooks): outside-model review fixes for the memorable hook and runExternal

- Nothing in the vendor's process group outlives the call: the group is
  killed on every resolve, the clean 'close' path included (a helper the
  vendor forked with redirected stdio ran on unsupervised before).
- A child that already exited when the deadline fires keeps its result; the
  deadline only ends the drain instead of rewriting a completed exit as a
  timeout.
- The decoded-leaf scan reports when its node/depth bound cut the walk short
  and the hook refuses the hand-off as unscanned; object keys are scanned too.
- git for the trust-policy lookup runs without inherited GIT_* selectors
  (GIT_DIR, GIT_WORK_TREE, GIT_CONFIG_*), so it inspects the session's
  repository and no other; a host cancellation kills that git as well.
- An unmatched brace in a vendor banner no longer hides the answer after it.
- The stderr tail is scanned whole before it is cropped for the log, so a
  credential's prefix cannot be cropped away from its secret half.
- The vendor override reads an empty GSTACK_MEMORABLE_BIN as unset, exactly
  as bin/gstack-memorable does, so enable checks the binary the hook runs.

* docs: list the memorable-recall sink among the fail-closed egress sinks

CLAUDE.md and ARCHITECTURE.md enumerate the receipt sinks that refuse to

was missing from both lists.

* test: memorable bridge tests pass on a runner that enforces file modes; scanner-proof key fixture

- The consent-write-failure tests make the state dir read-only, which also
  blocked the bridge lock directory (exit 5 before the path under test);
  the locks dir is pre-created so only the consent write fails.
- The unreadable-store test leaves a 0600 directory behind (the policy
  script chmods the store path); cleanup restores the search bit and the
  suite's afterEach reopens directories before removing.
- The AWS-key-shaped fixture is built by concatenation, as every sibling
  test does, so the CI credential gate does not read it as a live key.

+8 702a1a9b69 v1.78.0.0 fix: the two-red-lanes wave — AUQ collapse rooted, OSV green from 105, 18 community PRs absorbed, upgrade path can't eat installs (#2752)
* fix(auq): spawned trigger is objective — explicit declaration or STATUS echo, never inference (periodic-lane AUQ collapse)

The v1.76 spawned rule's parenthetical '(or your dispatch prompt marks this
session as spawned)' let the model INFER spawned status from a scripted-looking
prompt in a CI-looking session and silently auto-choose every review-phase
question: reviewCount=0 across the plan-review periodic E2Es (weekly run
33363624506, 9 of 14 failed shards; reproduced locally, zero AUQ fingerprints).
Env and hook paths were excluded by inspection: hermetic children echo
SESSION_KIND: interactive (CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT=cli beats CI markers) and the
question-preference hook isn't installed there.

The trigger is now objective: the echoed SESSION_KIND: spawned STATUS line, or
an EXPLICIT dispatch-prompt declaration ("you are a SPAWNED subagent") —
declared, never inferred — with an absence-safe interactive fence: CI env vars,
scripted-looking or pasted prompts, and write-to-this-exact-file instructions
are NOT spawned markers. The prose channel stays because Task-tool subagents
inherit the parent env (no spawned prefix) — their dispatch prompt is the only
signal; #2733's env-prefix channel is untouched.

19 carve skeleton ceilings re-pinned with measured values (+~440 bytes/skill);
ship goldens refreshed for all three hosts; resolver pins extended with the
no-inference regression tests.

* fix: mktemp failure aborts loudly at all three skill-content sites; failed upgrade swap restores the backup (#2679)

An empty $(mktemp) result silently disabled the redaction pass (redact-doc
resolver, ship pr-body) and made /gstack-upgrade's vendored path destructive:
clone lands at "/gstack", the swap mv fails, and rm -rf then deletes BOTH the
live install's backup and "". All three sites now guard the assignment with a
loud exit; the vendored block additionally restores the backup when the swap
fails (same failure class — backup deletion after a failed mv) and the GitLab
MR path sends the SCANNED file's bytes instead of re-rendering an unscanned
heredoc. bin/gstack-redact rejects an explicit empty --from-file path instead
of silently falling through to stdin.

Receipts: 6 of 8 new regression checks fail on a v1.77.0.0 scratch worktree.

Fixes #2679

* fix(auq): the interactive fence classifies the session — it never nudges ask-count

Burn-in run 1 of the periodic repro overshot the review band (reviewCount=8 >
CEILING=7) with the fence's 'when unsure, ask' tail: that phrasing is a quota
nudge, not a classification default. The fence now states it only classifies
the session and never changes how many questions the skill asks. Pin added.

* fix(ci): OSV suppression config actually loads — explicit global --config + expiring, reasoned ignores

The ignore file was inert from v1.65.0.0: OSV-Scanner only auto-discovers
configs named osv-scanner.toml (no leading dot) and applies them
per-directory, so the root config never covered lib/diagram-render/bun.lock
either way. The workflow now passes --config=.osv-scanner.toml globally.
Every IgnoredVulns entry carries a reason with an upgrade trigger and an
ignoreUntil expiry (~90 days) so suppressions must be re-justified. A wiring
test pins flag ↔ filename ↔ entry hygiene so the file can never silently go
inert again.

* fix(deps): dependency wave — 105 OSV advisories → 3 reasoned suppressions, all lanes verified on the pinned scanner

Root: overrides pin ip-address 10.3.1 (defeats BOTH nested nodes — socks'
range pull and express-rate-limit's exact 10.1.0 pin, which a top-level bump
provably cannot reach) and sharp 0.35.0 (GHSA-f88m, HIGH; transformers still
pins ^0.34 upstream — smoke-tested round-trip); marked ^18.0.11; full in-range
lockfile refresh clears hono, fast-uri, protobufjs, qs, body-parser, nanoid,
uuid, immutable and friends.

lib/diagram-render (via its own build-script contract: exact pins edited,
fresh lock, dist rebuilt): mermaid 11.16.1, @excalidraw/excalidraw 0.18.1,
@excalidraw/mermaid-to-excalidraw 1.1.2 → 2.2.2 — the 1.x line exact-pinned
mermaid 10.9.x and dragged the entire duplicate mermaid-10 advisory chain
(dompurify 3.1.6, nanoid 3.3.3, lodash-es); the bundle shrinks 9.96 → 7.59 MB
with the duplicate mermaid gone. Nested exact pins that survived get scoped
overrides (nanoid 5.1.16, lodash-es 4.18.1).

Verification: clean-worktree frozen-lockfile installs (root + nested) + the
SAME osv-scanner release the action pins (v2.3.8) with the workflow's exact
scan-args → exit 0, 'No issues found'. Smoke tests cover the override
surfaces (sharp round-trip, ip-address lockfile assertion, marked parse);
socks + diagram-drift suites already pin the rest.

Supersedes #2695 (its own lockfile kept socks/ip-address@10.2.0; @anupamme's
report credited for the parallel diagnosis).

* test(gbrain-sync): stub pgrep so the pin case is hermetic

The only non-dry-run --code-only child hits #1734's PATH-resolved

Wave-amended: goldens regenerated against the wave tree (author's golden commit 8e7a03ca superseded)

* fix(codex): a CLI that cannot execute no longer reports CODEX_MODE: ready

Follow-up to #2477. The model probe it added does a real round trip, but its
final branch is the `else` of a "model 400" grep, so it swallowed spawn ENOENT,
non-executable binaries and missing vendor payloads alongside genuine network
timeouts. All three are deterministic — retrying never helps — yet they landed
in the fail-open bucket and resolved to `ready`, so every Codex pass was
skipped in silence and the review reported itself complete.

Observed live: @openai/codex was on PATH with an empty
vendor/aarch64-apple-darwin/codex/ directory. gstack said `ready` for two
months while no Codex pass ran.

Three changes:

- `_gstack_codex_model_probe` classifies deterministic install failures (exit
  126/127, or stderr matching ENOENT/ENOEXEC/EACCES/"cannot execute binary
  file") as MODEL_UNUSABLE_INSTALL, exit 2, never cached — a reinstall is
  picked up on the next probe. Exit 124 and genuine transients still fail open,
  which is what #2477 intended.

- The preflight chain captures the probe's code instead of testing it for
  truthiness, so exit 2 routes to a new `broken_install` mode whose remedy is
  `npm install -g @openai/codex` rather than "check your model pin". A missing
  binary and an unusable model are different problems with different fixes.

- `_gstack_codex_version_check` no longer reads a broken CLI as healthy. It ran
  `codex --version 2>/dev/null | head -1`, which captures head's status, not
  codex's — and 2>/dev/null discarded the one diagnostic available. It now
  captures the real exit code and warns on non-zero. Empty-but-successful
  output stays silent, per the existing "empty output → OK" case.

Tests: 6 added to test/codex-hardening.test.ts covering both broken-install
shapes, the exit-2 contract, no caching, the transient still failing open, the
model 400 still classifying as MODEL_UNUSABLE, and the version-check warning.
845 pass / 0 fail across all 8 suites touching the changed files.

Closes #2742

Wave-amended: autoplan hand-maintained preflight chain completed (tmpl+render); install-signature grep gated on failed spawn only; goldens regenerated against the wave tree (author's golden commit 5797d326 superseded); +2 tests

* feat(redact): add Groq, Tavily and Notion API key patterns

* fix(redact): stop reporting .env.local as an internal hostname

`internal.hostname` ends in `.local|.prod|.staging|…`, so `.env.local`
matches on `env.local` and a dotenv FILENAME is reported as a leaked
internal host.

The collision is not exotic. It fires on `--env-file=.env.local` in an npm
script, `.env.staging` in a README, `.env.prod` in a .gitignore — ordinary
lines on branches that leak nothing. Measured on one private repo, three of
four MEDIUM findings in a routine push were this, and the fourth was a
deleted localhost URL. That ratio is the real cost: a scanner that reports
package.json is one people learn to skim, and skimming is how the HIGH
finding it exists for gets missed.

The guard follows the `insideUuid` precedent and stays deliberately narrow —
it exempts only a span beginning `env.` immediately preceded by a dot, i.e.
the literal `.env.<suffix>` form. `api.corp.local`, `build-7.internal` and
`myenv.local` all still report.

The test pins both directions, and the negative controls are the point: an
exemption written as "any span ending .local" would pass the dotenv half
while quietly gutting the pattern for every real host. Verified red/green —
with the validate hook removed, exactly the 6 dotenv cases fail and all 9
real-host controls still pass.

* fix: don't flag git SSH remotes as pii.email

`pii.email` matches the `git@github.com` inside
`git@github.com:acme/widgets.git`. That is a transport user@host, not a
person's address, so any diff touching a clone URL -- a deploy config's
repo URL, a submodule entry, a README clone line -- draws a spurious
MEDIUM from the pre-push hook.

Suppressed by URL shape rather than by adding `git` to
EMAIL_ALLOW_LOCALPARTS. A bare `git@` allowlist entry would also
suppress a genuine address at a domain that merely begins with "git"
(git@gitmail.com), converting a false positive into a false negative --
the worse failure for a guardrail. Two shapes are accepted:

  - `<user>@<host>:<path>.git` for ANY host, covering self-hosted
    remotes, plus the equivalent ssh:// URL form.
  - `git@<known-host>` for github.com, gitlab.com, bitbucket.org and
    ssh.dev.azure.com, whose bare form appears in docs and in
    `ssh -T git@github.com` connectivity checks with no path at all.
    Matched exactly, so gitmail.com is unaffected.

emailAllowed now receives the normalized text and the span offset so it
can see that surrounding shape; it had only ever been passed the matched
span.

Tests pin both directions: the SSH remotes go quiet, and a real address
still fires -- including at a git host (alex@github.com) and at a
git-prefixed domain (git@gitmail.com).

* fix(redact): install-prepush-hook refreshes a stale managed hook

The marker check returned before the only writer, so once a repo had the
hook, no later change to the wrapper could ever reach it. The `printf x`
fail-open fix (v1.64.0.0) has still not landed in any repo that received
the hook before it, and a wrapper naming a gstack that has since moved
stays pointed at a dead path for the same reason.

Compare the body against what this version generates: rewrite on drift,
stay a no-op when identical. The chained pre-push.local is untouched on
both paths.

The existing trailing-newline regression test cannot catch this — it
installs into a repo with no prior managed hook, the one case that was
never broken.

* fix(gbrain-detect): classify gbrain >= 0.43 held-lock refusal as engine-locked

gbrain 0.43+ refuses a held PGLite lock with exit 1 and the message
"GBrain's local database is already open through `gbrain serve` (MCP,
PID N)" instead of the pre-0.43 exit 124 + "connect timed out" that
the #2194 branch matches. The message matches no known pattern, so the
classifier falls through to the defensive broken-config default — and
Step 1.5 of /setup-gbrain and /sync-gbrain then tell the user to move a
perfectly healthy config.json aside and re-init the engine.

Reproduced live on gbrain 0.43.0.0, 0.44.0.0 and 0.46.30.0: with a
serve holding the lock, gstack-gbrain-detect reports
gbrain_local_status=broken-config; after stopping the serve it reports
ok with the same untouched config.

Match on the stable substring "already open through", mirroring the
existing #2194 branch semantics: engine-locked for pglite, broken-db
otherwise. Adds a fake-gbrain behavior for the 0.43+ refusal plus two
cases (pglite -> engine-locked, postgres -> broken-db).

* fix(memory-helpers): a slow gitleaks probe no longer disables secret scanning

`gitleaksAvailable()` cached every failure the same way, so a 2s timeout on
`gitleaks version` was recorded as "the binary is absent" for the rest of the
process. One busy moment and the whole ingest ran unscanned behind a single
stderr line — a fail-open outcome decided by machine load rather than by
anything about the machine's setup. The caller only acts on
`scanner === "gitleaks"`, so every later file was written with no scan and no
second warning.

The probe now classifies three outcomes. ENOENT (and a present-but-unusable
binary: bad exit, EACCES) stays cached — that is a fact about the box, and
re-probing it per file would be waste. A timeout gets one retry on a 10s
budget, and if that also expires nothing is cached: the file is reported
unscanned, the warning says so in those words, and the next file probes again.

Observed under the 7-way sharded free-test runner, where spawning a shell
script inside a temp bin dir took longer than the 2s budget.

Tests: the retry path, the no-cache-on-timeout path (the second call must
re-probe), and the cached-absent path. The fake gitleaks hangs for 30s rather
than racing a short sleep against a short budget, and the budgets are chosen so
load cannot flip an outcome: 30s where the retry MUST answer, 800ms where the
probe MUST expire. An earlier draft used 1s/5s and flaked under the same shard
runner this commit is about. The existing probe test pinned `detect` to
calls[1], which a retry breaks; it now asserts the order instead of the index.

* fix(make-pdf): pdftotext version and flavor probe returns unknown on poppler

describeBinary reports version="unknown" flavor="unknown" for every poppler
install, so logDiagnostics prints nothing useful on the most common
implementation. Two independent causes:

1. poppler writes the -v banner to stderr and exits 0. execFileSync returns
   stdout (empty) and does not throw on a zero exit, so the stderr fallback in
   the catch block is unreachable. The in-code comment already notes poppler
   exits 0, but only the throwing path reads stderr.

2. flavor is matched against the version line alone. poppler prints
   "pdftotext version 26.06.0" on line 1 and names itself on line 2,
   "Copyright ... The Poppler Developers", so even a working stderr read
   yields "unknown".

Switch the probe to spawnSync, which returns both streams regardless of exit
status, match the version banner rather than assuming line 0, and derive the
flavor from the full output.

Measured on poppler 26.06.0 (Homebrew, macOS), same machine and binary:

  before: { version: "unknown",                  flavor: "unknown" }
  after:  { version: "pdftotext version 26.06.0", flavor: "poppler" }

xpdf is unaffected: it exits non-zero and names itself on line 1, so it
resolved correctly before and still does.

Tests use shell shims reproducing each vendor's banner, stream and exit status,
since a real pdftotext cannot be assumed present in CI. Two of the four fail on
this commit's parent; the xpdf and no-banner cases pass there and are included
as regression guards rather than red-proofs.

* fix(open-gstack-browser): pre-flight cleanup never killed the stale daemon

Step 0 read the old pid with `grep -o '"pid":[0-9]*'` and Step 2 read the port
the same way. Neither can match. Every writer of that file in
browse/src/server.ts serializes with `JSON.stringify(state, null, 2)`, so the
bytes on disk are `"pid": 12060` — colon, space, digits.

The failure was silent in the worst way. `_OLD_PID` came back empty, the kill
never ran, browse.json was deleted anyway, and the next `connect` died with
"existing daemon has different config (proxy/headed mismatch)" — an error
pointing at proxy/headed flags rather than at the cleanup that no-opped. Caught
against a daemon left over from a reboot: the operator was told to check flags
they had never passed.

Both patterns now accept optional whitespace. The new tripwire does not match
strings — it RUNS the snippets the skill hands the agent, against a state file
written exactly the way the server writes one, and asserts pid and port come
back out. A third case pins the coupling to `JSON.stringify(state, null, 2)`,
so a switch to compact JSON surfaces as a failing expectation rather than as
silence.

* fix(browse): honour CHROMIUM_PROFILE in cli profile-lock cleanup

cli.ts resolved the Chromium profile dir with a hardcoded
$HOME/.gstack/chromium-profile, while browser-manager launches the profile
returned by config.resolveChromiumProfile(), which honours CHROMIUM_PROFILE
and GSTACK_HOME.

killOrphanChromium() and cleanChromiumProfileLocks() are called with no
argument, so whenever CHROMIUM_PROFILE was set they cleaned locks for, and
killed Chromium on, the DEFAULT profile rather than the one being launched.
Starting a browser with a custom profile therefore evicted an unrelated
browser running on the default profile.

Delegating to resolveChromiumProfile() also picks up GSTACK_HOME and
os.homedir(), so the cleanup path now matches the launch path on Windows
where HOME is frequently unset.

* fix(auq): the interactive fence is quota-silent — it defers to the skill's own decision points

Burn-in calibration: run 1 (fence tail 'when unsure, ask') overshot the
plan-ceo review band at reviewCount=8; run 2 (tail mentioning 'HOW MANY
questions') undershot at 1. Any ask-count language in the fence anchors the
model in one direction or the other. The tail now says only: classify as
interactive, then follow the skill's own decision-point instructions exactly
as written. Pins updated to forbid count language in either direction.

* test(browse): pin cli.ts profile-dir wiring to the canonical resolver

Wave-added coverage for the #2732 absorption: a 6-line fix with zero tests is
how the hardcoded path shipped in the first place. resolveChromiumProfile's
env behavior is already pinned in config.test.ts; this pins cli.ts's
delegation and forbids the hardcoded path from returning.

* fix(browse): preserve return value for async IIFE expressions in js/eval (#2727)

Wave-amended: test moved to browse/test/ (browse unit-test convention); trailing-semicolon normalization kept — it is load-bearing for the expression wrapper

* fix: bin writers drop data on Windows paths with an apostrophe

Two independent Windows git-bash bugs in the bin writers, both silent
because callers invoke these scripts with 2>/dev/null and do not check
the exit status — a hard failure was indistinguishable from success.

Bug 1 — apostrophe in the checkout path breaks the bun -e program.
gstack-learnings-log, gstack-question-log and gstack-telemetry-log build
a bun -e program as a double-quoted shell string and interpolate
SCRIPT_DIR into a single-quoted JS import specifier. A path such as
C:/Users/Someone's PC/... closes the JS string literal early and Bun
fails to parse ("Expected ; but found s"). Every learning write and every
plan-tune question event no-oped; telemetry error redaction fell to its
fail-closed null path. The #1950 cygpath -m guard did not cover this —
cygpath normalises the drive form but does not remove the apostrophe.

Fixed by not interpolating the path at all: cd into the module root and
use a relative import specifier, which is immune to apostrophes, spaces,
backslashes and MSYS paths alike. The one remaining interpolated data
path in gstack-developer-profile (readFileSync of PROFILE_FILE) is passed
via the environment instead, matching do_log_session in the same file.

Bug 2 — gstack-developer-profile --derive fails on an MSYS-form
GSTACK_HOME. GSTACK_HOME defaults to $HOME/.gstack, which under git-bash
is /c/Users/..., and Bun on Windows cannot open that form (ENOENT). This
script carried no cygpath guard at all. Fixed by normalising GSTACK_HOME
once, before PROFILE_FILE / LEGACY_FILE / the events path are derived
from it, so all three pick up the normalised value.

Adds test/hostile-path-writers.test.ts, which runs the bins from a
directory whose name contains an apostrophe and asserts that rows are
ACTUALLY WRITTEN (not merely that the exit code is 0 — exit-code-only
checks are what masked bug 1). The apostrophe repro is OS-independent:
SCRIPT_DIR derives from the script's own location, so a copied checkout
under a hostile directory name reproduces bug 1 on Linux/macOS CI too.

Wave-amended: all four writers unified on the env-var import pattern the PR already used in gstack-developer-profile (no CWD-dependent module resolution)

* fix(memory-ingest): stop two silent transcript-ingest failures

Two independent bugs made transcript pages silently fail to reach the brain.

1. Frontmatter fence gluing. buildTranscriptPage() built the closing "---"
   with no trailing newline, and session bodies always start with "## ", so
   the rendered page ended "...---## User". gbrain's frontmatter matcher
   (/^---\r?\n([\s\S]*?)\r?\n---(\r?\n|$)/ in src/core/markdown.ts) requires
   the closing "---" to end its own line, so it skipped the glued fence,
   latched onto the next standalone "---" in the transcript body, parsed the
   prose between as YAML, and dropped the page with "Invalid YAML frontmatter".
   Transcripts with no later "---" fell back to body-only, silently losing
   their frontmatter. Fix: emit the fence on its own line with a blank
   separator, matching renderPageBody()'s artifact branch.

2. Slug collisions. Two source files can map to one path-derived slug (a
   session resumed under the same id on one day, or two ids sharing a 12-char
   prefix). writeStaged() names each file "${slug}.md", so the second
   overwrote the first; gbrain collected N-1 of N staged files and the
   reconciliation guard failed the whole batch every run. Fix:
   disambiguateSlugs() keeps the first occurrence and gives each later collider
   a stable "-<sha8(source_path)>" suffix (deterministic, and slug + page_slug
   move together so writeStaged, the failure mapping, and state recording agree).

Exports buildTranscriptPage, renderPageBody, and disambiguateSlugs for tests.
Adds regression tests for both failures.

* fix(gbrain): a slow --version probe classifies as timeout, never no-cli (#2716)

resolveGbrainBin's bare catch collapsed 'gbrain missing' and 'gbrain present
but the 2s --version budget expired' into the same null — freshClassify then
said no-cli, which the --is-ok whitelist from #1964 does NOT forgive, so a
bun-shim install on a loaded POSIX box silently lost every brain-aware block.
The probe now returns a discriminated result (cached per-process, same
lifetime the old null had) using the same killed/SIGTERM/ETIMEDOUT
discrimination the sources-list probe below already uses; timeout routes to
the forgiven 'timeout' status. GSTACK_GBRAIN_VERSION_PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS test
override added (same precedent as the sources-probe override).

Receipt: the slow-but-present sibling test fails on a v1.77.0.0 scratch
worktree (classifies no-cli there).

* fix(codex): close the consult-mode fence, report turn.failed as a failure, capture exit codes portably (#2671, #2669)

Three defects in the codex skill sections:

- The resumed-session bash block never closed its fence; every fenced region
  after it inverted (prose rendered as code, the synthesis-recommendation tail
  rendered inert). A repo-wide fence-pairing test now scans every generated
  SKILL.md and sections/*.md with a CommonMark-faithful state machine (an
  info-string opener inside a fence is literal content — nested template
  examples in document-generate/make-pdf stay legal; a file ending inside a
  fence fails).

- The JSONL parsers had no turn.failed branch: a turn that STATED its failure
  was reported as 'possible mid-stream disconnect'. Challenge and consult now
  print the event's error and run a three-way completeness check (failed-with-
  reason / silent-disconnect / ok); consult previously had no completeness
  check at all.

- ${PIPESTATUS[0]} is empty under zsh, so hang detection never fired and
  every clean run printed a spurious '[codex exit ]'. All three capture sites
  use ${PIPESTATUS[0]:-${pipestatus[1]}}, pinned statically and EXECUTED
  under real bash and zsh in the new test. Expect a step-change in
  codex_timeout telemetry — the counter starts firing for zsh users.

Receipt: the portability pin fails on a v1.77.0.0 scratch worktree; the fence
fix is structural (17 → 18 fence lines, tail no longer inside a block).

* fix: outside-voice fallback is labeled honestly — same model family, not cross-model (#2735)

When Codex is unavailable, the plan-review outside voice falls back to a
Claude subagent and the copy sold it as 'cross-model coverage' with 'genuine
independence'. Fresh context is real; cross-model validation is not — a user
weighing 'both reviewers agree' deserves to know both reviewers share a model
family. Six canonical strings fixed at the resolver source (constants.ts
not_installed/not_authed, review.ts outside-voice bullet + three dispatch
paragraphs); ~10 generated docs and the ship goldens regenerated. Printing
the resolved fallback model at dispatch time is descoped as a functional
change (follow-up in the wave dispositions).

* fix(relink): skill_prefix patches the gbrain render too — the file the host actually serves (#2738)

gstack-relink linked SKILL.md from RENDER_DIR when a gbrain render was active
but ran gstack-patch-names only on INSTALL_DIR, so the served frontmatter kept
the unprefixed name and skill_prefix=true silently no-oped for every
brain-aware skill. The render tree (user-owned, untracked) is now patched too;
gstack-patch-names is idempotent so repeat relinks never double-prefix. The
gen-skill-docs note that pointed users at relink now describes what relink
actually covers.

Receipt: the new test fails on a v1.77.0.0 scratch worktree (served render
keeps 'name: qa').

* fix(render): section refs point at the FINAL render dir, never the tmp swap dir (#2692)

gen-skill-docs bakes its --out-dir into rendered CONTENT (rewriteSectionBase),
and both swap-in callers (setup, gstack-config gbrain-refresh) render into
claude.tmp.<pid> before the #2569 atomic rename — so every rendered skill
carried ~9 dead section Read paths that pointed at a directory the swap had
just deleted. New --link-root flag names the final serving dir (defaults to
--out-dir for direct-render callers: bin/dev-setup, dev-skill.ts, mkdtemp
tests — full caller audit in the wave notes); the rewrite now uses a
replacement callback so a $-bearing configured path can't expand as $& in a
replacement string. The swap logic itself stays byte-identical. Tests pin the
generator contract (tmp out-dir files reference the final dir, $-bearing
path included) and both callers' wiring.

* feat(setup): persistent timeline Stop hook opt-out — timeline_stop_hook config gate (#2677)

--no-team is a one-shot teardown, so every later bare ./setup (including the
ones /gstack-upgrade runs) re-registered the timeline Stop hook with no way
to say 'never'. New gate mirrors the plan_tune_hooks pattern: flag
(--timeline-stop-hook/--no-timeline-stop-hook) > env
(GSTACK_TIMELINE_STOP_HOOK) > saved config (timeline_stop_hook) > default
yes. An explicit flag persists to config so the decision survives upgrades;
an explicit 'no' also removes a live registration (reconciliation), so the
opt-out works against installs registered by an older setup. --no-team
semantics unchanged (NO_TEAM_MODE is never initialized from config). Full
gstack-config surface: DEFAULTS entry, header docs, list/defaults
enumeration, warn-and-default validation.

* fix(browse): tame the macOS headless GPU spin + reap the lock-less headless Chromium on stop (#2709)

Two defects in one report. On macOS 26 / Apple Silicon the headless-shell GPU
process pegs ~800% CPU indefinitely after real page work and --disable-gpu
alone is not enough; the reporter validated that adding
--disable-software-rasterizer/--disable-gpu-compositing/--disable-gpu-watchdog
drops it to 0.0% with screenshots still working. The flag block is a pure
platform-parameterized function (unit-tested on any host), darwin-gated,
headless-only (buildGStackLaunchArgs feeds the headed/GBrowser paths where
GPU-off is wrong), with a GSTACK_DISABLE_GPU=off escape.

Separately: the headless launch has no userDataDir, so it never writes the
SingletonLock that killOrphanChromium walks — 'browse stop' reported success
while the orphan kept spinning. The daemon now records the launched child's
pid + wall-clock start time in the state file (the xvfbPid/xvfbStartTime
contract), and stop paths reap a survivor only after verifying BOTH the
recorded start time and a Chromium-looking cmdline — a recycled PID, even one
running a different legitimate Chromium, is never killed (identity tests
include the coreutils-shebang trap that defeats argv0 renames).

macOS efficacy is per the reporter's validation; live re-verification on
Apple silicon is tracked in TODOS.md.

* fix(wtree): a failed touch falls through to the HEAD seed instead of reopening the racy window (#2687)

The v1.74 racy-git fix carries the real index's mtime onto the temp copy —
but its 'touch -r … || true' meant a FAILED touch silently kept the copy's
fresh stamp, marking every entry non-racy and reopening the exact same-size-
rewrite hole. A failed touch now discards the copy and seeds from read-tree
HEAD (slower; every entry re-hashed; fingerprint stays honest).

Verification for #2687 itself: the reporter's same-size-rewrite repro run 20
iterations against this tree — 0 misses (the underlying race was fixed by
v1.74's b1485d88 with its own regression test; this wave verifies and closes,
it does not claim that fix). Receipt: the stubbed-touch test fails on a
v1.77.0.0 scratch worktree.

* fix(redact): large reports survive the pipe — exitCode instead of process.exit; inert test payload

The wave's PR quality gate failed closed: gate-secret-scan.mjs pipes the
diff's added lines into gstack-redact and parses the JSON report, but
process.exit() discards stdout still buffered in the pipe — this wave's
646-finding report (202 KB) is the first big enough to arrive truncated
(~145 KB) at node's collector, so JSON.parse failed and the gate read
'no report' as HIGH. The report and auto-redact body paths now set
process.exitCode and let the runtime drain stdout; exit-code contract
unchanged (verified 0/2/3 end-to-end). Also: the C1 test's stdin payload no
longer uses a provider-prefix credential shape (the gate correctly flagged
it; the content was never read on the error path under test).

* fix(auq): the interactive fence ends at classification — all behavioral tails removed

The pinned-container periodic lane proved the collapse dead (reviewCount 0 →
7/8/5 across the AUQ suite) but flagged the fence's remaining behavioral
clause: 'never adds, removes, or batches the skill's decision points' broke
the paired-finding control (5 > 4 — it suppressed the batching that fixture
expects), and the band overshot its ceiling (8 > 7). Every behavioral tail
tried so far skewed counts somewhere ('when unsure, ask' → 8; 'HOW MANY
questions' → 1; 'never batches' → paired control red). The fence now ends at
'When unsure, default to interactive.' — classification only, zero behavior
words. Pins forbid every tried-and-failed phrasing.

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

* fix(auq): the spawned trigger is the STATUS echo, nothing else — prose channel removed from the eager path

Two pinned-container periodic rounds showed that ANY dispatch-prompt
declaration channel in rule 1 keeps question counts unstable (round 1, fence
with behavioral clause: paired control 5>4, band 8>7; round 2, bare fence:
intermittent 0s return, paired control breaks both directions). The stable
regime CI was calibrated against had no spawned prose in the eager path at
all. Rule 1 now keys on exactly one machine-verifiable thing: the preamble's
own SESSION_KIND: spawned STATUS echo. No text from a dispatch prompt, file,
or page can flip a session to auto-choose (the strongest anti-injection
form). Subagents that missed the env marker are caught at FAILURE time by
the AUQ hooks' spawned escape (explicit declaration, never inference) — a
channel that never enters an interactive session's eager reasoning.

This reverses the wave's earlier explicit-declaration middle ground (and
adopts the outside voice's twice-made echo-only argument) on the new
evidence. #2733 protected: skill-e2e-docsync-spawned (gate) passes 1/1 on
this prose — the ship Step-18 dispatch forces the env prefix, so the echo
fires there.

GPU-spin reap actually targets — it now falls back to ps -o command=.
readPidStartTime no longer throws when ps is missing (Windows): a launch

paths (dead-daemon stop, startServer stale cleanup, headed-connect) now
reap the recorded chromium BEFORE unlinking the state file instead of
orphaning it, and the stop-path wait polls (100ms steps, 1s cap) instead
of sleeping a fixed 500ms. Wiring pinned: server-state pid/start-time
write, all five cli.ts reap call sites, headless-only GPU-flag push.

* test(codex): execute the JSONL parser under real python3; fence scanner tracks opener length

The parser's turn.completed/turn.failed/disconnect semantics were pinned
by shape only — now the python block is extracted from both RENDERED
sections and run against synthetic event streams (tokens line, FAILED +
not-a-disconnect, silence -> disconnect warning, SESSION_ID echo), with
byte-equivalence safety pins on the bash double-quote extraction. The
fence scanner also gains CommonMark opener-length tracking: a 4-backtick
fence wrapping a 3-backtick example no longer false-positives, with a
self-test.

* test(redact): large report survives a slow piped consumer

Pins the >145KB truncation regression (process.exit before the pipe
drained): 900 MEDIUM findings -> 259KB JSON report through a sleep-first
POSIX consumer that holds the 64KiB kernel buffer full at child exit;
asserts complete parseable JSON with matching counts and exit 2, plus an
--auto-redact mirror (700 redactions, final sentinel byte arrives).
Harness proven red against a copy of the bin with process.exit restored.

* test(dev-setup): update LINK_ROOT source pin to the parsePathFlag shape

Companion to the gen-skill-docs parsePathFlag extraction: the pin still
asserts the same invariant (LINK_ROOT defaults to OUT_DIR, so an in-place
render stays a byte-exact no-op) against the new expression.

* docs(changelog): fix-batch properties folded into the v1.78.0.0 entry

Stale-backup refusal + empty-scanned-body guard on the mktemp bullet, the
redact pipe-truncation fix as its own item (a v1.77 bug), and test counts
refreshed to the post-fix-batch suite (8,660).

* test(upgrade): migration test resolves bash through the parent PATH

A hardcoded /usr/bin:/bin child PATH breaks spawn('bash') on the Windows
curated lane (spawn resolves against the CHILD env's PATH; no bash.exe
lives there). Hermeticity is carried by HOME/GSTACK_* overrides, not PATH.
Found by the cycle-2 review pass.

* fix(memory-helpers): per-run cooldown bounds the slow-gitleaks probe cost

Retrying a slow probe per FILE (#2715's slow!=absent split) re-paid up to
probe+retry (12s default) per file — an 887-file ingest on a loaded box
spent hours re-asking the same slow question. After 3 consecutive slow
answers the run stops probing and warns once that remaining files go
unscanned; the availability cache is still never written, so the next
process probes fresh. Slow/absent discrimination is unchanged.

* fix(memory-ingest): slug assignments persist across runs via the state consult

First-occurrence-keeps-bare was walk-order-dependent ACROSS runs: a source
that got the suffixed slug once could take the bare slug the next run (its
collider aged out or was skipped as unchanged), leaving gbrain holding the
same transcript under two slugs — and a NEW collider could claim a bare
slug that state shows belongs to an unchanged source, silently overwriting
that page. disambiguateSlugs now consults state.sessions: a recorded slug
stays owned by its source_path, re-ingested sources keep their slug
verbatim, fresh assignments never take another source's slug, and legacy
duplicate records (pre-#2724 overwrites) resolve first-owner-wins and
self-heal on the next state write. Stateless behavior is unchanged.

identity-checked Chromium reap; env table gains CHROMIUM_PROFILE and
GSTACK_DISABLE_GPU rows.

"Both red weekly lanes are green again" overclaimed: OSV is verifiably
green (pinned scanner, frozen install, branch dispatch), but the periodic

v1.76 regression that silenced plan reviews is dead. Flagged by the
cross-model doc review; headline now leads with the user-visible outcome.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Two gaps closed:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

* test: coverage-audit additions for the fix wave

Ship Step 7 gap-fill (all passing, 248 tests across the touched suites):
memory + dream stage probe-timeout proceeds, gbrain-detect override paths,
stale-flag passthrough, 200-body-missing-.security fail-closed case,
telemetry redaction edges, and credential-pattern edge cases.

* fix: pre-landing review fixes

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

* docs: P1 TODO — eval harness live progress + incremental persistence

Root-caused during this ship: a killed eval run was indistinguishable from a

incremental eval-store writes, no honest liveness signal). Full context and

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Garry TanandClaude Opus 4.8 9cc41b7163 v1.57.6.0 fix wave: 8 community bugs (4 security guards failing open) (#1911)
* fix(ship): adversarial subagent no longer trips usage-policy denial on own security fixtures (#1899)

The Claude adversarial subagent in /review and /ship was told to "think like an
attacker" over the full diff. When the diff includes the repo's own security
regression fixtures (real attack payloads, by design), reasoning adversarially
over that material triggered Anthropic's real-time usage-policy safeguards and
the subagent call was denied — blocking the review.

Fix at the prompt's source of truth (scripts/resolvers/review.ts {{ADVERSARIAL_STEP}}):
- Authorized-defensive-testing framing: declares this is the maintainer's own repo
  and that attack-pattern strings inside test/fixture paths are the project's own
  regression corpus to analyze, not material to expand on.
- Fixture summary-mode diff: full content for non-fixture source, --stat/--name-status
  for test/fixture files, so raw exploit bytes aren't fed into adversarial reasoning.
  The subagent must state fixtures were reviewed in summary mode (no silent coverage cut).

* fix(redact): detect modern sk-proj-/sk-svcacct-/sk-admin- OpenAI keys (#1868)

openai.key (HIGH/block) used /\b(sk-(?:proj-)?[A-Za-z0-9]{32,})\b/, which stops
at the first - or _ in the body. Modern OpenAI project/service-account/admin keys
use base64url bodies containing - and _, so they never reached the 32-char run and
produced ZERO findings — a HIGH credential failing open through /spec, /ship, /cso,
and /document-*.

Replace with explicit alternation, bare vs prefixed (not a globally-optional prefix,
which would match malformed sk--... or separator-less sk-projabc...):
  sk-{proj,svcacct,admin}- + [A-Za-z0-9_-]{20,}  |  sk-[A-Za-z0-9]{32,} (legacy)

Tests: the three previously-missed shapes now block; FP guards pin that hyphenated
prose and malformed sk- strings do NOT match (HIGH tier blocks, so calibration matters).

* fix(redact): reject malformed --max-bytes instead of silently disabling the size guard (#1824)

The oversize check is designed to fail CLOSED, but a malformed --max-bytes turned
it fail-OPEN. bin/gstack-redact did parseInt(maxBytes,10) and passed it straight
through; parseInt("foo") is NaN. The engine guarded with `opts.maxBytes ?? DEFAULT`,
and ?? does not catch NaN, so `byteLen > NaN` was always false and the fail-closed
block never fired. A negative value made `byteLen > -5` always true, blocking
everything.

Two layers:
- bin/gstack-redact validates the RAW string (parseInt accepts "123abc"->123,
  "1.5"->1): require /^\d+$/ and > 0, else exit 1 with a clear message.
- lib/redact-engine.ts hardens the fallback to Number.isFinite && > 0 else the
  default cap — a guardrail so the engine never silently runs uncapped even if a
  bad value reaches it directly.

Tests: NaN and negative both fall back to the default cap (oversize still blocks);
CLI rejects garbage/negative with exit 1.

* fix(learnings): cross-project trust gate is an allowlist, not a denylist (#1745)

gstack-learnings-search --cross-project is documented as an allowlist — foreign
learnings load only when user-stated/trusted, to stop one project's AI-generated
learnings from injecting into another project's reviews. It was implemented as a
denylist: `if (isCrossProject && e.trusted === false) continue`. Any row where
`trusted` is missing/undefined (legacy rows from before the field existed,
hand-edited rows, rows from other tools) passed `undefined === false` → false →
admitted. Those rows leaked across projects.

Flip to `e.trusted !== true`. Test: a foreign row with no `trusted` field is now
excluded (true still included, false still excluded).

* fix(safety): one-way-door classifier catches "rotate ... password" (#1839)

scripts/one-way-doors.ts is the secondary safety net for ad-hoc AskUserQuestion
ids with no registry entry; a false negative auto-approves a destructive op. The
revoke and reset credential patterns both include `password`, but the rotate
pattern omitted it, so the most common phrasing ("rotate the database password")
classified as a reversible two-way question.

Add `password` to the rotate alternation so all three verbs are parallel. New test
covers rotate+password, the revoke/reset/rotate parallel, and rotate's other nouns.

* fix(review): route .mjs/.cjs/.mts/.cts changes to the backend reviewer (#1810)

gstack-diff-scope backend detection matched only *.ts|*.js. Modern Node ships
backend code as ESM (.mjs) / CommonJS (.cjs) and explicit-module TS (.mts/.cts);
none matched any category, so a PR touching only those files reported no backend
scope and the Review Army skipped the backend reviewer.

Add the four module extensions to the backend case. Test covers all four.

* fix(brain-cache): loadMeta tolerates malformed _meta.json without crashing (#1879)

loadMeta returned the parsed JSON verbatim. A valid JSON file that lacked the
last_refresh map made three consumers (isStale, cmdInvalidate, refreshEntity)
throw a TypeError dereferencing meta.last_refresh — the sibling last_attempt was
already guarded, last_refresh wasn't.

Fix in loadMeta:
- Shape-guard: JSON.parse can return null/array/string/number; non-object → fresh meta.
- Normalize ONLY the dereferenced maps (last_refresh, last_attempt).
- Deliberately do NOT default schema_version/endpoint_hash. Leaving them absent
  makes schemaVersionMismatch()/endpointSwitched() force a rebuild (missing
  identity = mismatch = safe); defaulting them would suppress cache invalidation
  and trust a stale file of unknown provenance.

Tests: missing last_refresh no longer throws; null/array/primitive treated as cold;
missing schema_version forces rebuild instead of a trusted warm hit.

* fix(skills): anchor guard/freeze/careful hook paths so they survive CC 2.1.162 (#1871)

The PreToolUse frontmatter hooks for guard, freeze, and careful invoked
`bash ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/.../check-*.sh`. Claude Code 2.1.162 no longer populates
${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR} in the skill-hook execution env, so it expanded to empty and
every Edit/Write/Bash ran `bash /...` and errored — breaking the safety skills
entirely.

Frontmatter hooks run before any skill-body bash, so no runtime-resolved variable
can fix this; the command must be a path that's valid at hook time. Anchor to the
installed checkout: $HOME/.claude/skills/gstack/{careful,freeze}/bin/check-*.sh,
where the scripts actually live. ($HOME is expanded by the hook shell.)

CHANGELOG entry for the 8-fix safety wave (#1899, #1868, #1824, #1745, #1839,
#1810, #1879, #1871). VERSION + package.json to 1.58.0.0 (MINOR — coordinated
multi-file safety fixes on top of main's 1.57.3.0). #1882 filed as the top

* fix(learnings): strip backticks from #1745 comment inside the bun -e block

The #1745 trust-gate fix added an explanatory comment containing backticks
(`=== false`) and the JS block is a double-quoted `bun -e "..."` bash string, so
bash command-substituted the backtick contents on every cross-project search —
polluting stderr with "command not found" and leaving a latent shell-injection /
source-corruption surface in a security gate. Caught by the wave's own adversarial
review (#1899 framing working as intended). Reworded the comments to avoid backticks
and dollar-paren entirely; the gate logic is unchanged.

The three ship golden fixtures were stale: main's v1.57.3.0 added the always-loaded
PR-title invariant to ship/SKILL.md but did not regenerate the goldens (the golden
regression test fails on main too), and the codex golden still carried an unresolved
${ctx.paths.binDir} token. Regenerated from the current generated ship skills, which
also picks up this wave's #1899 adversarial-prompt framing (inlined for codex/factory).

Garry TanandClaude Opus 4.8 dedfe42ef0 v1.53.0.0 feat: smarter redaction — PII/secrets/legal guard across /spec, /ship, /cso, /document-* (#1797)
* v1.51.0.0 feat: $B memory diagnostic + 4 CDP-resource leak fixes (#1751)

* add withCdpSession + getOrCreateCdpSession helpers

Two CDP-session lifecycle helpers in cdp-bridge.ts:

- withCdpSession(page, fn): ephemeral session with try/finally detach.
  For one-shot CDP work (archive snapshots, $B memory, single
  Page.captureScreenshot) where the caller doesn't need session reuse.
- getOrCreateCdpSession(page, cache): cached long-lived session that
  registers a page.once('close') hook to BOTH delete the cache entry
  AND call session.detach(). Pre-helper code only deleted the cache
  entry, leaving the Chromium-side CDP target attached until the
  underlying transport dropped.

Pure addition. Existing callers untouched in this commit; they migrate
in the next commit alongside the static-grep test that pins the
invariant.

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

* migrate 3 CDP-session sites to lifecycle helpers

Fixes the CDP-target leak class identified by /codex outside-voice on
the eng review (D11 EXPAND_SCOPE). All three sites called
`page.context().newCDPSession(page)` directly and either forgot the
detach entirely (cdp-bridge cache cleanup), only detached on the
success path (write-commands archive), or detached on framenavigated
but not page-close (cdp-inspector).

- cdp-bridge.ts: `getCdpSession` now delegates to
  `getOrCreateCdpSession`, which registers a `page.once('close')` hook
  that BOTH removes the cache entry AND calls `session.detach()`.
- cdp-inspector.ts: same migration for the inspector's session pool.
  Keeps the existing framenavigated detach (more granular than close
  for DOM/CSS state invalidation) plus an inspector-layer close hook
  for the initializedPages WeakSet.
- write-commands.ts archive: wraps Page.captureSnapshot in
  withCdpSession so the detach runs in `finally`, including the path
  where captureSnapshot throws.

The static-grep tripwire (next commit) pins the invariant so future
direct calls to newCDPSession fail CI.

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

* add CDP-session cleanup tripwire + helper unit tests

browse/test/cdp-session-cleanup.test.ts pins the invariant that no
source file outside cdp-bridge.ts may call newCDPSession() directly.
If a future refactor reintroduces the direct call, CI fails with a
file:line list and a pointer to the right helper to use instead
(withCdpSession for one-shot, getOrCreateCdpSession for cached).

Also covers the helpers themselves with fake-Page unit tests:
- withCdpSession detaches on success
- withCdpSession detaches on throw (the actual leak fix)
- withCdpSession swallows detach errors so they don't mask fn errors
- getOrCreateCdpSession caches the session across calls
- close hook detaches AND clears the cache

* extract createSseEndpoint helper with cleanup contract

browse/src/sse-helpers.ts owns the SSE cleanup invariant:
cleanup runs on abort, enqueue failure, AND heartbeat failure,
exactly once, regardless of which edge fires first.

Pre-helper, /activity/stream and /inspector/events ran cleanup only on
the req.signal.abort edge. If the underlying TCP died without firing
abort (Chromium MV3 service-worker suspend, intermediate proxy
half-close), the subscriber closure stayed in the Set capturing the
ReadableStreamDefaultController plus any payloads queued behind it. Over
a multi-day sidebar session this compounded into multi-MB of retained
controllers per dead connection.

Caller surface: initialReplay (optional, for gap replay or state
snapshots), subscribe (live-event source), liveEventName (SSE event
name for live wrap), heartbeatMs. send() helper handles JSON encoding
with sanitizeReplacer + lone-surrogate stripping.

Unit tests pin all three cleanup edges + idempotency + replay ordering
+ surrogate sanitization. Endpoint refactors land in the next commit.

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

* route /activity/stream + /inspector/events through createSseEndpoint

Both endpoints collapse from ~45 lines of in-line ReadableStream wiring
to ~8 lines of helper config. Behavior preserved bit-for-bit by the
new sse-helpers tests:
  - initial replay (activity gap + history, inspector state snapshot)
  - live event subscription
  - 15s heartbeat
  - SSE framing
  - sanitizeReplacer applied to every JSON.stringify

The leak fix is the cleanup contract: pre-refactor, both endpoints ran
cleanup only on req.signal.abort. If TCP died without firing abort
(Chromium MV3 SW suspend, intermediate proxy half-close), the
subscriber closure stayed in the Set forever capturing the
ReadableStreamDefaultController + queued payloads. Post-refactor, an
enqueue-failure or heartbeat-failure on a dead consumer triggers the
same idempotent cleanup as abort would.

Net: -83 / +15 in server.ts.

* cap inspector modificationHistory at 200 entries

Pre-cap, modificationHistory was an unbounded module-scoped array that
grew for every CSS edit through $B css across the entire session.
Small per-entry footprint but no upper bound, the kind of slow leak
that compounds over multi-day inspector use.

Cap is 200, oldest evicted on push past the cap. modHistoryTotalPushed
stays monotonic across the session so undoModification can tell the
user when their target index has been evicted, instead of just the
opaque pre-cap "No modification at index 500" with no context.

__testInternals export lets the cap + eviction error be unit-tested
without spinning up a CDP-driven Page. Production code must continue
to go through modifyStyle / undoModification / resetModifications.

* add BrowserManager.getMemorySnapshot() + shared types

Diagnostic foundation for $B memory and the /memory endpoint that land
in the next two commits. Collects:

- Bun process memory via process.memoryUsage (cross-platform, accurate).
- Per-tab JS heap via CDP Performance.getMetrics, lazy per tracked page,
  swallows target-died errors so a dying tab doesn't poison the
  snapshot for the rest.
- Chromium process tree via SystemInfo.getProcessInfo (PID + type +
  CPU time). RSS is NOT exposed via CDP — the eng review (D2 USE_CDP)
  picked CDP over shelling to `ps`, so notes[] tells the caller why
  the RSS column is absent and points at the follow-up TODO.

cdp-inspector exports getModificationHistoryStats so the snapshot can
surface buffer occupancy + cap + evicted count without reaching into
module-private state.

memory-snapshot.ts holds the shared types so server.ts and read-commands
can import without circular dep on browser-manager.

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

* add \$B memory command

Registers 'memory' in META_COMMANDS, wires the meta-command dispatch
to a lazy-imported handler in memory-command.ts. Lazy because the
import graph (cdp-bridge + memory-snapshot + buffer accessors) isn't
useful to projects that never run the diagnostic.

The handler assembles MemoryStructureStats from the modules that own
each buffer (cdp-inspector mod history stats, activity subscriber
count, console/network/dialog buffer lengths, captureBuffer bytes,
inspectorSubscriber count via a new server.ts export) and calls
BrowserManager.getMemorySnapshot. Output is text by default, JSON with
--json so the sidebar footer and test harness can consume it
programmatically. buildMemorySnapshotJson is the entry the /memory
endpoint will call in the next commit.

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

* add /memory endpoint (SSE-session-cookie gated)

GET /memory returns the BrowserManager memory snapshot as JSON. Auth
matches /activity/stream and /inspector/events: Bearer header OR
view-only SSE-session cookie (the extension fetches the cookie once
via POST /sse-session, then polls /memory with withCredentials: true).

Deliberately NOT extending /health for the sidebar footer poll —
TODOS.md "Audit /health token distribution" records that /health
already surfaces AUTH_TOKEN to any localhost caller in headed mode. A
separate endpoint with the standard SSE auth keeps the future /health
fix from cascading into the sidebar.

sanitizeReplacer is applied at egress because tab.url and tab.title
come from page content — lone-surrogate bytes from broken emoji could
otherwise reach the sidebar and (when forwarded to Claude API) trigger
HTTP 400.

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

* add sidebar footer RSS readout (polls /memory every 30s)

Footer now shows "<bun-rss> · <tab-count>" sourced from the /memory
endpoint, polled every 30s. Color thresholds: orange warn at 2 GB Bun
RSS or 50 tabs; red bad at 8 GB or 200 tabs (matches the tab-guardrail
threshold landing in a later commit). The footer gives the user an
early signal that the cliff is forming, instead of only learning when
the OS OOM-kills the process.

Backoff per Codex's flag: if a poll takes > 2s response time the
sidebar drops to a 5-minute cadence until the next successful fast
poll. The diagnostic shouldn't add load to a browser that's already
unhealthy.

Start/stop is wired to the existing setServerInfo() hook so the timer
only runs while the sidebar is connected to a server.

* stop materializing response bodies in requestfinished listener

The Bun-side accelerant on the gbrowser-OOM investigation. Pre-fix,
the per-page requestfinished listener called \`await res.body()\` just
to read .length — Playwright fetches the bytes from Chromium across
CDP into a Bun Buffer, only for the listener to discard the buffer
after a single length read. On a long-lived headed browser with
media-heavy pages this is multi-GB/hour of Buffer allocation churn.
Bun GCs it, but the cross-process CDP traffic + transient allocation
pressure feeds the OOM trajectory.

The fix: req.sizes() pulls from the Network.loadingFinished event
Chromium already emits. No body materialization. Accurate for chunked
transfer, gzip-compressed responses, and streaming media — the cases
where a naive Content-Length header read (the original review's
proposal) would have missed the size entirely (Codex flag on the eng
review, D10 USE_CDP_EVENT_BATCHED).

The D10 stretch goal — replacing N per-page listeners with a single
context-level CDP listener via Target.setAutoAttach — is deferred and
tracked in TODOS. The listener architecture change is significantly
more plumbing than the leak fix and not on the critical path for
stopping the body materialization.

* tab guardrail (50/200 thresholds) + sidebar action toast

Server side (browser-manager.ts):
Idempotent threshold tracker fires an activity entry exactly once at
each upward crossing of 50 (soft warn) and 200 (hard warn). Re-arms
when the count drops below. Activity-feed surface gives the
audit-trail invariant even with the sidebar closed; the toast UX
lives in the sidebar.

Sidebar side (extension/sidepanel.{html,css,js}):
Every /memory poll evaluates two trigger conditions:
  - Any single tab > 4 GB JS heap (catches the WebGL/video runaway
    case Codex flagged on the eng review).
  - Tab count >= 200.
Toast shows top 5 tabs ranked by max(jsHeap, nodes*1KB + listeners*200)
so a WebGL-heavy tab with small JS heap still surfaces. Default-selected
checkboxes + "Close selected" run \`\$B closetab <id>\` through the
existing /command path — no chrome.tabs.remove bridge needed. "Snooze"
bumps tabsAbove/heapAbove thresholds in chrome.storage.session so the
toast stays hidden until the user accumulates more tabs OR one tab
grows another 2 GB.

Tests: browse/test/tab-guardrail.test.ts pins the server-side
fires-once + re-arms invariants without spinning up Chromium.

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

* add memory-leak reproducer (gate tier)

browse/test/memory-leak-reproducer.test.ts pins the invariant from
the D10 fix: wirePageEvents.requestfinished must call req.sizes() but
must NEVER call res.body(). Fakes a page emitting a burst of 200
requestfinished events, each with a notional 1 MB response — pre-fix
this would allocate 200 MB of Buffer per burst, post-fix not one byte
of body content is materialized.

The test also asserts networkBuffer entries are still populated with
the right size, so size reporting in the network panel doesn't
regress.

A real-Chromium peak-RSS reproducer (periodic tier) is deferred —
see TODOS "Reproducer with WebGL / video / MSE buffer pressure". This
gate-tier test is sufficient to catch the leak class being
reintroduced by any future refactor of the requestfinished listener.

Wall clock: ~400ms.

* TODOS: 4 follow-ups from gbrowser-OOM PR

* regen SKILL.md after adding \$B memory command

The C8 commit added 'memory' to META_COMMANDS + COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS
but didn't regenerate the SKILL.md files. The category was 'Diagnostics'
which isn't in scripts/resolvers/browse.ts:categoryOrder; switched to
'Server' (matches the existing 'status' / 'restart' / 'handoff'
pattern) so the table renders under the existing ### Server section.

Test fix: gen-skill-docs.test.ts asserts every command appears in the
generated SKILL.md and gstack/llms.txt; without this regen the test
fails with "Expected to contain: 'memory'".

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

* add coverage for \$B memory diagnostic surface

17 tests across the formatter + byte renderer + JSON entry point:

- formatBytes() 4-tier (bytes, KB, MB, GB) + 160 GB sanity case
  (the friend's OOM number from the original screenshot, so the
  renderer doesn't blow up at real leak scale)
- handleMemoryCommand --json mode parseable shape
- handleMemoryCommand text mode: Bun server line, no-tabs branch,
  top-10 sort with "...and N more" tail, Chromium process grouping
  by type, "unavailable" line when processes is null, modification-
  history evicted-count format, notes section rendering, long-URL
  ellipsis truncation
- buildMemorySnapshotJson returns shape matching the type

The formatSnapshotText renderer is private to memory-command.ts;
tests exercise it through handleMemoryCommand's text-mode return
path. The eviction-count format is pinned via a parallel format
contract assertion since the renderer reads live module state.

Coverage gate: brings the diagnostic surface from 0% to ~80%.
Extension UI (sidepanel.js footer + toast) remains uncovered —
adding tests there would require extracting fmtBytesShort and
tabRamScore from sidepanel.js into a testable TS module, which is
deferred to a follow-up to keep this PR scoped.

* fix(test): pin SSE sanitizer wiring to the v1.51 createSseEndpoint helper

The two `wiring invariants` tests grepped server.ts for
`JSON.stringify(entry, sanitizeReplacer)` and
`JSON.stringify(event, sanitizeReplacer)` — patterns that lived inline
in /activity/stream and /inspector/events before the v1.51 refactor
moved both endpoints behind createSseEndpoint. Sanitization still
happens (the helper applies it inside its send() and live-event
callback), but the static-grep was pinned to the old wiring and started
failing on Windows free-tests after the refactor landed.

Updated to check the new contract:
- /activity/stream + /inspector/events route through createSseEndpoint
  (regex match of the route handler block ending in the helper call).
- sse-helpers.ts contains JSON.stringify + sanitizeReplacer + imports
  stripLoneSurrogates from ./sanitize (catches drift to a private copy).
- server.ts retains its own sanitizeReplacer for non-SSE egress paths
  (handleCommandInternal); the two replacers coexist by design.

* v1.52.0.0 feat(plan-tune): explicit consent + first-run setup wizard for contributors (#1741)

* feat(plan-tune): explicit-consent surface + setup gate for question_tuning

Step 0 grows two implicit gates that run before user-intent routing:
- Consent gate: question_tuning=false + no marker → offer opt-in (contributor-specific copy variant)
- Setup gate: question_tuning=true + declared empty + no marker → run 5-Q wizard

Markers (~/.gstack/.question-tuning-prompted, ~/.gstack/.declared-setup-prompted)
ensure each user is asked at most once. The Enable+setup section split into
"Consent + opt-in" (with contributor framing) and standalone "5-Q setup"
reachable from both the consent flow and the setup gate.

Also aligns the calibration gate across three docs (V0 said 90+ days, TODOS
said 2+ weeks, binary uses 7 days). The fix distinguishes:
- Display gate (sample_size>=20, skills>=3, question_ids>=8, days_span>=7):
  for rendering inferred values in /plan-tune output
- Promotion gate (90+ days stable across 3+ skills): for shipping E1
  behavior-adapting defaults

TODOS.md E1 card updated to reference 90+ days, plus Codex's substrate risk
note: generated skill prose is agent-compliance-based, so E1 ships as
advisory annotations on AskUserQuestion recommendations, not silent
AUTO_DECIDE. Tests can verify templates contain right reads but can't
prove agents obey them.

Per /plan-eng-review + Codex outside-voice 2026-05-26.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v1.49.0.0)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(bins): honor GSTACK_STATE_ROOT override for test isolation

Plan-tune cathedral T1 (per D16 / Codex outside voice). The 3 bins that back
/plan-tune (question-log, question-preference, developer-profile) previously
ignored GSTACK_STATE_ROOT, so tests that tried to point state at a tempdir
via that env var silently wrote to the real ~/.gstack. Make STATE_ROOT take
precedence over GSTACK_HOME so the cathedral's E2E + unit tests can isolate
cleanly without sledgehammering HOME.

Order of precedence:
  GSTACK_STATE_ROOT > GSTACK_HOME > $HOME/.gstack

Matches the existing gstack-paths emission order.

* test(plan-tune): regression coverage for v1.49 consent + setup gates

Plan-tune cathedral T2 + part of T1 follow-up (Codex IRON RULE — regressions
get tests). v1.49 shipped two prose-driven implicit gates inside plan-tune
Step 0 (consent, setup) with zero test coverage. The cathedral refactors that
template heavily; without tests, silent breakage is possible.

Three regression families plus a static template assertion:
1. Consent gate fires under qt=false + no marker; goes silent on marker write
   or qt=true flip.
2. Setup gate fires under qt=true + empty declared + no marker; goes silent
   when declared populates, marker is written, or qt is still false.
3. Marker idempotency: gates stay silent across 5 re-invocations after a
   single decline/bail. Markers honored independently.
4. Static template assertion: gate language can't be silently deleted
   without breaking a test.

Also extends gstack-config to honor GSTACK_STATE_ROOT (it was the last bin
still ignoring it — caught while writing the tests; without this, tests
would silently mutate the user's real config.yaml).

* docs(spikes): Claude hook mutation + Codex session format

Plan-tune cathedral T4 (per D5/D10). Two Phase 1 design spikes that
downstream tasks (T3, T5, T6, T8, T9) depend on.

claude-code-hook-mutation.md
- Confirms PreToolUse allow + updatedInput is supported and is the right
  mechanism for substituting an auto-decided answer.
- Pins stdin/stdout JSON schemas with field-by-field reference.
- Documents matcher regex syntax for "(AskUserQuestion|mcp__.*__AskUserQuestion)"
  so Conductor's MCP-routed AUQ is covered.
- Captures parallel-hook merge order caveat and our settings.json snippet.

codex-session-format.md
- Maps the on-disk ~/.codex/sessions/<date>/rollout-*.jsonl schema by
  event type (response_item 76%, event_msg 19%, turn_context, session_meta).
- Critical finding: Codex has NO AskUserQuestion tool. Gstack AUQ-shaped
  Decision Briefs surface as agent_message text; answer is the next
  user_message. Two-tier recovery: marker-first (D18), then pattern
  fallback for hash-only logging.
- Confirms logs_2.sqlite is internal telemetry, not session content.
- Lists open questions to answer during T9 implementation.

* feat(settings-hook): schema-aware PreToolUse/PostToolUse registration

Plan-tune cathedral T3 (per D4 + Codex correction). The previous bin only
knew SessionStart and dedup'd on the hardcoded `gstack-session-update`
substring. The cathedral needs PreToolUse + PostToolUse hooks registered
side-by-side with the user's own hooks, with explicit consent UX, backups,
and rollback.

New subcommands:
- add-event --event <SessionStart|PreToolUse|PostToolUse|...> --command <cmd>
  --source <tag> [--matcher <re>] [--timeout <s>]
- remove-source --source <tag>      # removes all entries tagged by source
- diff-event ...                    # preview without mutating
- rollback                          # restore latest backup
- list-sources                      # audit gstack-tagged hooks

Multi-source dedup via a new `_gstack_source` field on each hook entry
(Claude Code preserves unknown fields). Source tag lets plan-tune-cathedral
register PreToolUse + PostToolUse without colliding with the existing
SessionStart wiring, and lets remove-source clean up cleanly during
gstack-uninstall.

Backups written automatically to settings.json.bak.<ts> before any
mutation, with a .bak-latest pointer the rollback subcommand reads.

Existing legacy `add <cmd>` / `remove <cmd>` shape preserved verbatim so
setup --team and gstack-uninstall keep working unchanged.

* feat(hooks): PostToolUse capture hook for AskUserQuestion

Plan-tune cathedral T5. Closes the substrate hole that motivated this
entire branch: agent-compliance-only logging produced zero events in weeks
of dogfood. PostToolUse hook captures every AUQ fire deterministically.

What ships:
- hosts/claude/hooks/question-log-hook.ts — TS hook that reads Claude
  Code's hook stdin, walks tool_input.questions[*], extracts user choice
  + recommended option from tool_response, spawns gstack-question-log per
  question.
- hosts/claude/hooks/question-log-hook — bash shim Claude Code's hook
  runner invokes; execs bun against the .ts file.
- Marker-first question_id extraction (D18 progressive markers):
  <gstack-qid:foo-bar> stripped from question text, used as the id.
  Hash fallback hook-<sha1[:10]> for unmarked questions (observed-only,
  never used as preference key — D18 hash drift mitigation).
- (recommended) label parsing for the user_choice/recommended fields,
  with refuse-on-ambiguous when two labels are present (D2 safety).
- Free-text capture: source=auq-other + free_text field when user picks
  Other and types (Layer 8 dream cycle input).
- Matcher covers both native AskUserQuestion and mcp__*__AskUserQuestion
  (Codex/Conductor catch from outside voice review).
- Crash safety: always exits 0; errors land in ~/.gstack/hook-errors.log
  so the user's session is never blocked by a hook failure.

gstack-question-log extended to:
- Accept `source` field (default 'agent', new values: hook, auq-other,
  auto-decided, codex-import-marker, codex-import-pattern).
- Accept `tool_use_id` (<=128 chars) for dedup.
- Composite dedup on (source, tool_use_id) across the last 100 lines —
  protects against hook + preamble both firing on the same tool call
  (D3 belt+suspenders).
- Async fire `gstack-developer-profile --derive` after each successful
  write so inferred.sample_size actually grows (D17 — without this, the
  cathedral's "before 0, after >0" metric never moves).
- GSTACK_QUESTION_LOG_NO_DERIVE=1 escape hatch for tests.

9 new unit tests covering capture, marker extraction, MCP variant,
free-text, dedup, ambiguous-recommended safety, crash paths. All pass
plus the existing 88 tests across related files.

* feat(hooks): PreToolUse enforcement hook for AskUserQuestion preferences

Plan-tune cathedral T6 — the keystone that makes never-ask actually bind.
Today preferences are agent-convention (silently ignored). This hook
enforces them via Claude Code's hook protocol: when a never-ask preference
matches an AUQ that is two-way + has a marker + has a clear recommendation,
the hook returns permissionDecision: "deny" with permissionDecisionReason
naming the auto-decided option. The agent obeys the rejection feedback and
proceeds with the recommended option without re-firing AUQ.

Decision tree (per question):
  - marker absent → defer (D18: hash IDs are observed-only)
  - one-way door → defer (safety override — never auto-decide one-way)
  - always-ask preference → defer
  - no preference set → defer
  - ambiguous recommendation (two (recommended) labels OR no parseable rec)
    → defer (D2 refuse-on-ambiguous)
  - never-ask / ask-only-for-one-way + two-way + clean rec → deny+reason

Preference precedence per D8: project-local
(~/.gstack/projects/<slug>/question-preferences.json) wins, global
(~/.gstack/global-question-preferences.json) is fallback.

Why deny+reason instead of allow+updatedInput:
AskUserQuestion's updatedInput shape for "pre-resolve this question" isn't
structurally pinned in Claude Code docs (T4 spike open question). deny with
a reason that names the auto-decided option is the conservative + reliable
v1 — the model receives the rejection, reads the recommended option from
the reason, proceeds without re-prompting. Swap to allow+updatedInput once
the AUQ input shape is verified against real Claude Code.

Since deny prevents PostToolUse from firing, this hook logs the auto-decided
event itself via gstack-question-log (source=auto-decided) so /plan-tune's
Recent auto-decisions surface picks it up. Also writes a session marker
~/.gstack/sessions/<id>/.auto-decided-<tool_use_id> for coordination when
the AUQ-shape switch lands.

Multi-question AUQ: enforcement is all-or-nothing per call. If any question
in the batch isn't eligible (no marker, no preference, ambiguous rec, etc.),
the whole call defers so the user still gets to answer the rest normally.

Registry lookup: cheap regex extraction from scripts/question-registry.ts
(reading + bun-importing the TS file from a hook is too slow). Door type
defaults to two-way for unregistered.

Matcher covers both native AskUserQuestion and mcp__*__AskUserQuestion
(Conductor disables native — Codex outside-voice catch).

15 unit tests cover defer paths, enforcement, one-way safety override,
ambiguous-rec refuse, precedence (project wins, global fallback,
project-overrides-global), MCP matcher, auto-decided event logging,
session marker writing, crash safety.

* feat(scripts): declared-annotation helper + autonomy signal_key wiring

Plan-tune cathedral T7. Adds the helper that lets skills inject one-line
plain-English annotations on AUQ recommendations based on the user's
declared profile — read-only, advisory-only, per TODOS.md E1 substrate-risk
guidance (no AUTO_DECIDE off inferred).

scripts/declared-annotation.ts
- getDeclaredAnnotation(signal_key) → annotation | null
- primaryDimensionFor(signal_key) → Dimension | null
- Signature uses kebab signal_key per D2/Codex correction (registry uses
  hyphens; profile dimensions use underscores; helper maps internally).
- Bands: >= 0.7 high, <= 0.3 low, else null. Middle band stays silent.
- Per-dimension plain-English phrasing: 5 dimensions × 2 bands = 10 phrases.
- Reads ~/.gstack/developer-profile.json (honors GSTACK_STATE_ROOT).

scripts/psychographic-signals.ts
- New signal_key 'decision-autonomy' that maps user_choice → autonomy
  dimension nudges. This was the missing signal for the 'autonomy'
  dimension — without it, the cathedral could annotate four of five
  declared dimensions but autonomy stayed silent.

scripts/question-registry.ts
- Add signal_key: 'decision-autonomy' to land-and-deploy-merge-confirm
  and land-and-deploy-rollback. These are the highest-leverage autonomy
  questions in the surface — "let me decide" vs "go ahead" is exactly
  what the dimension captures.

13 unit tests cover the helper's full contract (unknown keys, missing
profile, middle-band null, both band thresholds, all five dimensions
rendering distinct phrases). Existing 47 plan-tune.test.ts tests still
pass after the registry + signal-map enrichment.

* feat(setup): install plan-tune cathedral hooks with explicit consent UX

Plan-tune cathedral T8. Wires the new PostToolUse capture hook and
PreToolUse enforcement hook into ~/.claude/settings.json via the
schema-aware gstack-settings-hook (T3) — respecting D4's "never mutate
settings.json silently" boundary and the Codex outside-voice warning.

Behavior at setup time:
- Idempotency: if list-sources already shows 'plan-tune-cathedral', no-op
  with a one-line note.
- Marker present (previously declined): no-op, no re-prompt.
- Interactive terminal: print rationale + diff preview from settings-hook,
  rollback command, and prompt y/N. On accept, register both hooks
  (PostToolUse and PreToolUse) with --source plan-tune-cathedral. On
  decline, touch ~/.gstack/.plan-tune-hooks-prompted so we don't re-ask.
- Non-interactive (CI / scripted): no prompt; print the two exact commands
  the user would need to install manually.
- --no-team teardown also removes the plan-tune hooks via remove-source.

gstack-uninstall extended to clean up plan-tune-cathedral hooks alongside
the existing SessionStart cleanup. Listed as a separate "plan-tune
cathedral hooks" line in the REMOVED summary when it fires.

No new test file — coverage from T3's gstack-settings-hook-schema-aware
tests proves the underlying bin behavior; setup-level integration is
verified manually (re-running ./setup is cheap and the prompt makes it
obvious whether install happened).

* feat(bin): gstack-codex-session-import — structured Codex transcript parser

Plan-tune cathedral T9. Backfills question-log.jsonl from Codex sessions
since Codex has no AskUserQuestion tool (per docs/spikes/codex-session-format.md)
and gstack AUQ-shaped Decision Briefs show up as agent_message prose.

Walks ~/.codex/sessions/<date>/rollout-*.jsonl, matches each agent_message
that contains either a <gstack-qid:foo-bar> marker or a D-numbered Decision
Brief header, then pairs it with the next user_message for the answer.
Two-tier recovery per D5:
  - marker present → source=codex-import-marker, stable question_id
  - no marker but D-shape detected → source=codex-import-pattern with
    hash-only question_id (never used as preference key per D18)

Subcommands:
  gstack-codex-session-import                    # latest session
  gstack-codex-session-import <file>             # explicit path
  gstack-codex-session-import --since <iso>      # all sessions newer than

User-choice extraction handles A/B/C letter responses and prose responses
that start with the option label. Recommended option parsed via the
"(recommended)" label suffix (same convention as Layer 2).

Each extracted event written via gstack-question-log, so source tagging,
dedup, and async derive all apply uniformly. spawnSync uses the cwd from
session_meta so gstack-slug buckets events into the project the user was
actually working in, not the importer's cwd.

7 unit tests cover marker path, pattern fallback, multiple briefs in
sequence, missing user_message, numeric/letter user response forms,
empty-sessions-dir handling.

Smoke-tested against a real ~/.codex/sessions/ file from earlier today —
returns IMPORTED: 0 because that session was autonomous (no AUQ-shaped
prose), proving the bin doesn't false-positive on unrelated agent_message
events.

* feat(bin): gstack-distill-free-text — Layer 8 dream cycle distiller

Plan-tune cathedral T10. Reads auq-other free-text events from this
project's question-log.jsonl, calls Claude via the Anthropic SDK to extract
structured proposals (preference candidates, declared-profile nudges, memory
nuggets), writes them to distillation-proposals.json for the user to review
via /plan-tune (never autonomous — every apply requires explicit Y).

Subcommands:
  gstack-distill-free-text                # sync distill
  gstack-distill-free-text --background   # detach + return PID
  gstack-distill-free-text --dry-run      # emit prompt + events, no API call
  gstack-distill-free-text --status       # run history + cost-to-date

D7 rate cap: 3 distills per slug per day. Reads ~/.gstack/distill-cost.jsonl
for the count, exits with RATE_CAPPED when limit hit. Cost log lines tagged
by slug so sibling projects don't share the cap. Yesterday runs don't count.

D6 API auth: Anthropic SDK direct, fail-loud on missing ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
with explicit message that distill is a separate billing surface from the
interactive Claude Code session. Uses claude-haiku-4-5 for cost (~$0.001/
1k input, $0.005/1k output) — sufficient for structured extraction.

D14 execution context: --background spawns detached (nohup) so auto-trigger
during /ship doesn't add 30s of pause; results surface on next /plan-tune.

Source events get distilled_at:<ts> stamped on them after the run so they
don't re-propose on the next distill. Match by ts + question_id.

Cost-log line per run includes: slug, proposals_count, rejected_low_confidence,
input_tokens, output_tokens, cost_usd_est. /plan-tune stats reads this to
show "$X estimated, N runs this month" per Layer 4 surface.

10 unit tests cover --status, rate cap (3/day, yesterday-not-counted,
other-slug-not-counted), no-log/no-free-text paths, --dry-run, missing
API key, --background spawn. The actual SDK call is exercised by the T16
E2E test (uses real key, ~$0.001 per run).

* feat(bin): gstack-distill-apply — apply distillation proposals with gbrain tag

Plan-tune cathedral T11. Bin that applies a single user-approved proposal
from distillation-proposals.json to the right surface:
  - memory-nugget  → appended to ~/.gstack/free-text-memory.json (durable
                     local source-of-truth; gbrain is mirror when configured).
  - preference     → routed through gstack-question-preference --write
                     with source=plan-tune (clears the user-origin gate).
  - declared-nudge → atomic update to developer-profile.json declared dim,
                     small=0.05, medium=0.10, large=0.15, clamped to [0, 1].

Why a separate bin (not inline in the skill template): /plan-tune's apply
step needs to be invokable from any host (Claude, Codex, etc) and must
write to multiple state files atomically. A bin centralizes the schema
+ clamp logic; the skill template just calls it after user Y.

gbrain coordination: --gbrain-published true marks the nugget so /plan-tune
stats can show "12 nuggets, 8 mirrored to gbrain". The skill template
invokes mcp__gbrain__put_page / extract_facts / add_tag in the same turn
(those are MCP tools, not CLI-callable) before calling this bin. Local file
remains canonical so the PreToolUse hook injection path (T12) doesn't
depend on gbrain availability.

Subcommands:
  gstack-distill-apply --list                       # show pending proposals
  gstack-distill-apply --proposal <N>               # apply, file fallback
  gstack-distill-apply --proposal <N> --gbrain-published true

Applied proposals get applied_at + gbrain_published stamped on them so
re-running --list shows only unconsumed ones.

11 unit tests cover --list (all three kinds + quotes), memory-nugget
append + non-clobber, preference routing through the gate-respecting bin,
declared-nudge math (medium=0.10, small=0.05, large=0.15, clamp at [0,1]),
proposal mark-applied with gbrain flag, and error paths (bad index, missing
--proposal).

* feat(hooks): Layer 8 memory injection via per-session cache

Plan-tune cathedral T12. Extends the PreToolUse hook to inject matching
free-text-memory.json nuggets into AskUserQuestion responses, giving the
agent + user the distilled context from past 'Other' answers right when
the related question fires.

Per-session cache (D13 perf): first read of free-text-memory.json writes
~/.gstack/sessions/<id>/memory-cache.json. Subsequent hooks on the same
session take the cached path. Invalidation is by file-missing: when the
canonical file changes (via gstack-distill-apply), the per-session cache
either reflects the staler view for the rest of the session or the
session restarts and the cache rebuilds. Cheap, correct enough for v1.

Matching logic:
  - Walk this AUQ batch's questions, extract marker question_ids.
  - Look up signal_key in scripts/question-registry.ts.
  - Collect nuggets whose applies_to_signal_keys include any of the
    matched signal_keys.
  - Cap to 3 most-recent (by applied_at) so the additionalContext stays
    short.
  - Surface as additionalContext on the hookSpecificOutput response.

Memory + enforcement interact cleanly: the same hook can both surface
nuggets AND deny the tool when a never-ask preference matches. Memory
context isn't doubled in the deny reason — the auto-decided option name
in the deny path is sufficient signal.

6 new tests cover injection on defer, no-match silence, 3-most-recent cap,
memory-alongside-deny enforcement, cache file write-through, empty-canonical
graceful degradation. Existing 15 preference-hook tests still green.

* feat(plan-tune): SKILL.md surfaces for cathedral T13

Plan-tune cathedral T13. Rewires plan-tune/SKILL.md.tmpl to expose the
new cathedral surfaces:

Step 0 routing:
- Implicit gate #3 (dream-cycle): fires when distillation-proposals.json
  has unapplied proposals. Marker is per-proposal applied_at so re-firing
  naturally skips already-handled items.
- Added user-intent route for "dream cycle" / "distill" / "what have I
  been free-texting".
- Power-user shortcuts: distill, dream, audit.

Stats:
- Host-aware source breakdown (SOURCE_HOOK, SOURCE_AGENT, SOURCE_AUTO_DECIDED,
  SOURCE_CODEX_IMPORT_*, SOURCE_AUQ_OTHER).
- MARKED percentage so D18 progressive-markers progress is visible.
- Distill cost-to-date via gstack-distill-free-text --status.

Recent auto-decisions:
- Last 10 source=auto-decided events with question_id + user_choice.
  Lets the user spot-check enforcement and flip via always-ask.

Audit unmarked questions:
- Top N hash-only ids by frequency. Surfaces next candidates for the
  D18 marker retrofit.

Dream cycle review + manual distill:
- Walks unapplied proposals via AskUserQuestion (one per call), routes
  accepts through gstack-distill-apply with --gbrain-published flag.
  Skill template invokes mcp__gbrain__put_page when MCP is available;
  local file remains source-of-truth.

Regenerated SKILL.md via `bun run gen:skill-docs`. All 60 plan-tune
tests still green.

* feat(preamble): inject <gstack-qid:...> marker convention into question-tuning resolver

Plan-tune cathedral T14. Per D18 progressive markers, the PreToolUse
enforcement hook only fires when the AUQ question text contains a
<gstack-qid:foo-bar> marker the hook can extract. Without a marker, the
hook logs the fire as observed-only and skips enforcement (hash IDs drift
with prose so they're never used as preference keys).

The high-leverage retrofit point is the preamble's Question Tuning section,
not 10 individual skill templates. Updating scripts/resolvers/question-tuning.ts
adds the marker convention to every tier-≥2 skill in one change — agents
running ANY of the 30+ tier-≥2 skills now embed the marker by default when
the question matches a registered question_id.

Two convention additions in the preamble:
1. "Embed the question_id as a marker (<gstack-qid:{id}>) somewhere in the
   rendered question." With explanation that the marker is the only path
   for the PreToolUse hook to enforce preferences.
2. "Embed the option recommendation via the (recommended) label suffix on
   exactly one option per AUQ." Documents the D2 parser contract: label
   first, prose fallback, refuse-on-ambiguous.

Net cost: ~700 bytes added to the preamble per generated skill. Plan-review
preamble budget ratcheted from 39000 → 40000 (test/gen-skill-docs.test.ts)
with a comment explaining the cathedral T14 expansion is load-bearing.

Regenerated 42 SKILL.md files via `bun run gen:skill-docs`. The token
ceiling warning on ship/SKILL.md (~41K tokens) is pre-existing; this PR
doesn't change ship's preamble materially.

* feat(ship): plan-tune discoverability nudge after first successful ship

Plan-tune cathedral T15 (the ship-side surface; the setup-side surface
shipped in T8 with explicit hook-install consent UX). Adds Step 21 to
ship/SKILL.md.tmpl: after Step 20 (persist metrics) succeeds, surface
/plan-tune once per machine via a marker-gated single-line nudge.

Behavior:
- If ~/.gstack/.plan-tune-nudge-shown exists → no-op.
- If question_tuning is already true → no-op (user already on board).
- Otherwise: print one nudge line, touch marker.

The nudge mentions both the observational substrate AND the hook-installed
auto-decide enforcement so users know what they get when they opt in.
Non-blocking — never asks a question, doesn't gate ship completion.

To re-show: rm ~/.gstack/.plan-tune-nudge-shown before next ship.

Setup-side discoverability shipped in T8 via the hook install prompt
(explicit consent + diff preview + backup). Together these two surfaces
cover first-install AND first-ship moments — the user discovers plan-tune
organically rather than needing to know /plan-tune exists.

* test(plan-tune): 5 cathedral E2E scenarios + touchfile registration

Plan-tune cathedral T16 (per D12 — all 5 in gate tier). One consolidated
file with five describeIfSelected scenarios, each selectable by its own
touchfile entry so they only run when the relevant code changes (or
EVALS_ALL=1 forces all):

  plan-tune-enforcement      — never-ask + marker + 2-way → deny+reason
                               + auto-decided event logged

                               → memory injected via additionalContext

Each scenario fixtures an isolated git repo + bins + scripts + hooks
under tmp, then exercises the cathedral chain end-to-end against real
on-disk binaries (no mocks at the bin layer). GSTACK_STATE_ROOT keeps
the user's real ~/.gstack untouched.

These five complement the existing unit tests by proving the full
sub-process chain works (not just individual functions in isolation).
They DON'T spawn claude -p because the cathedral's substrate behavior is
deterministic — agent compliance is no longer the variable. The existing
test/skill-e2e-plan-tune.test.ts (plan-tune-inspect) still covers the
LLM-driven intent-routing behavior.

Cost: each scenario runs in ~1s with $0 because no claude -p invocations.
Touchfile-gated, so they only run on PRs that touch cathedral code.

Also fixes a bug found by the E2E: question-log-hook didn't pass the
incoming tool call's cwd to spawnSync when invoking gstack-question-log,
so the bin used the hook process's cwd (the repo root) instead of the
session's cwd. Result: log writes landed in the wrong project bucket.
Fix mirrors the same cwd-passing pattern from question-preference-hook.

* chore: bump VERSION to 1.50.0.0 + plan-tune cathedral CHANGELOG

Plan-tune cathedral T17. Bumps VERSION 1.49.0.0 → 1.50.0.0 (MINOR per
CLAUDE.md scale-aware rule: this is substantial new capability — 8 layers,
~3000 LOC, 96 new tests, deterministic substrate + dream-cycle distillation).

CHANGELOG entry follows the release-summary format from CLAUDE.md:
- Two-line bold headline naming what changed for users (deterministic
  capture, binding preferences, free-text memory loop)
- Lead paragraph: before/after framed concretely (zero events captured →
  every fire, agent-honored → hook-enforced, declared profile → injected
  context, regex backfill → structured JSONL parser)
- Two tables: metric deltas + layer/where-it-lives. Real numbers
  (96 tests, ~$0.01 per distill, 3/day cap), no AI vocabulary, no em
  dashes.
- "What this means for solo builders" close: ties dream cycle to the
  compounding loop and points to ./setup as the on-ramp.
- Itemized Added/Changed/For contributors sections list every layer's
  surfaces with file paths.

Also:
- Refreshed test/fixtures/golden/{claude,codex,factory}-ship-SKILL.md
  to match the regenerated ship templates (Step 21 nudge added).
- Rebased plan-tune entry in parity-baseline-v1.47.0.0.json from
  51717 → 64017 bytes with a baseline_note explaining the cathedral T13
  expansion. Documents that the new Dream cycle, Recent auto-decisions,
  Audit unmarked, Dream cycle review/distill sections are load-bearing,
  not bloat. Without the rebase, the size-budget gate fails — and the
  cathedral's whole point is making /plan-tune do more, not less.

* chore: bump VERSION 1.50.0.0 → 1.52.0.0 (queue collision with #1742)

CI version gate caught: PR #1742 (garrytan/upgrade-gstack-gbrain-v1)
already claims v1.50.0.0 and #1751 (garrytan/browser-memory-leak) claims
v1.51.0.0. gstack-next-version util recommends v1.52.0.0 as the next free
slot.

Updates:
- VERSION 1.50.0.0 → 1.52.0.0
- package.json version sync
- CHANGELOG.md header + metric table label
- parity-baseline-v1.47.0.0.json baseline_note reference

No content changes; pure slot rebase per the queue. The cathedral scope
(8 layers, 96 tests) and CHANGELOG narrative stay identical — same ship,
different release number.

* chore: cap audit — remove distill rate cap, loosen size/budget gates

Plan-tune cathedral follow-up. The 3/day distill cap was theatrical: at
~$0.01 per Haiku call, even a runaway loop firing every minute would cost
~$14/day, and free-text events are rare enough that the natural input
rate self-limits to 1-2 fires/day. Count caps don't protect against
runaway bugs (which fire 1000x/second, not 4 times/day) but DO punish
heavy users who'd legitimately distill multiple times during a busy week.

Removed: 3/day rate cap on bin/gstack-distill-free-text. --status output
swapped from "TODAY: N / 3" to "TODAY: N run(s), $X" so users see what
they're spending instead of how close they are to a meaningless count.

Loosened (caps that exist for real-runaway protection, not normal scope):
- EVALS_BUDGET_HARD_CAP_GATE   $25 → $200/run
- EVALS_BUDGET_HARD_CAP_PERIODIC $70 → $500/run
- EVALS_BUDGET_HARD_CAP        $30 → $300/run (umbrella fallback)
- GSTACK_SIZE_BUDGET_RATIO     1.05 → 1.50 per-skill ratio
- plan-review preamble byte budget 40K → 60K

Principle: caps exist to catch obvious bugs (infinite retry, model price
change, prompt blowup), not to gate legitimate scope growth. Set high
enough that real growth never trips them, only bug territory does.
Adjusted defaults are 4-8× historical worst case, leaving ample headroom
for the next 12 months of legitimate expansion.

Tests updated: distill-free-text removes the 3-test rate-cap describe
block in favor of "no rate cap" assertion that 10 runs/day pass. Other
budget tests still pass because they were never near the old ceilings.

* feat(redact): shared redaction engine + taxonomy (pure lib, no behavior change)

Add the foundation for cross-skill PII/secret/legal redaction:

- lib/redact-patterns.ts — canonical 3-tier taxonomy (HIGH genuinely-secret
  credentials, MEDIUM PII/legal/internal + high-FP credential-shaped, LOW
  surface-only). Tier-1 calibration: Stripe-publishable, Google AIza, JWT, and
  env-KV are MEDIUM not HIGH (context-variable / high-FP). Validators: Luhn,
  Shannon-entropy gate, RFC1918 exclusion, wallet sanity. Per-span placeholder
  suppression (not line-based).
- lib/redact-engine.ts — pure scan() + applyRedactions(). Normalization pass
  (NFKC + zero-width strip + entity decode) with offset map back to original.
  Oversize input fails CLOSED. No visibility-based tier promotion (records
  repoVisibility for sterner wording only). Tool-attributed-fence WARN-degrade
  for obvious doc-examples. Safe preview masking (≤4 leading chars).
- 100 unit tests: per-pattern positives, FP filters, validators, email
  allowlist, no-promotion semantics, tool-fence degrade, normalization,
  oversize-fail-closed, ReDoS pattern-lint + runtime budget, auto-redact
  (idempotent, right-to-left, structural-corruption guard).

* feat(redact): bin/gstack-redact CLI shim over the engine

Skill-facing CLI wrapping lib/redact-engine. Reads stdin or --from-file,
scans, prints JSON (--json) or a human table. Exit codes 0/2/3 gate
dispatch/file/edit/commit (WARN never gates). --auto-redact emits the
sanitized body + diff for the PII-class one-keystroke path. --allowlist,
--self-email, --repo-public-emails, --repo-visibility, --max-bytes.
Fails closed on oversize at the CLI boundary before the engine even reads.

9 contract tests: exit codes, JSON shape, auto-redact, allowlist, self-email,
from-file, oversize-fail-closed.

* feat(redact): opt-in pre-push hook (accident catcher) + safe installer

bin/gstack-redact-prepush scans the diff being pushed for HIGH credentials and
blocks on a hit, for public AND private repos (a pushed secret is compromised
regardless of visibility). Correct git pre-push semantics: scans remote..local
(what's being pushed), handles new-branch zero-SHA via merge-base or empty-tree
fallback, force-push, and branch-delete skip. MEDIUM warns non-blocking; LOW/WARN
silent. GSTACK_REDACT_PREPUSH=skip escape valve logs to prepush-skip.jsonl.

bin/gstack-redact gains install-prepush-hook / uninstall-prepush-hook
subcommands that chain any pre-existing hook (renamed to pre-push.local,
stdin forwarded to both, exit code propagated).

Guardrail not enforcement: --no-verify and the env skip both bypass; it scans
only the pushed delta, not history/binary/LFS. 9 tests in a throwaway git repo.

* feat(redact): gstack-config keys redact_repo_visibility + redact_prepush_hook

redact_repo_visibility (public|private|unknown) is a LOCAL override for repos
gh/glab can't read; it lives in ~/.gstack/config.yaml so it can't weaken the
gate repo-wide for other contributors. redact_prepush_hook (true|false) toggles
the opt-in pre-push hook. No block_private key — HIGH blocks both visibilities
unconditionally. Value-domain validation + 6 tests.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(redact): gen-skill-docs resolver for taxonomy table + invocation block

scripts/resolvers/redact-doc.ts emits two placeholders, both derived from
lib/redact-patterns so skill docs never drift from the engine:

- {{REDACT_TAXONOMY_TABLE}} — 3-tier table for /spec + /cso (shared source).
- {{REDACT_INVOCATION_BLOCK:<sink>}} — the canonical scan-at-sink bash + prose
  for one enforcement point (pre-codex/pre-issue/pre-archive/pre-pr-body/
  pre-pr-title/pre-commit): which-bun probe, visibility resolution (local config
  → gh → glab → unknown), temp-file scan-at-sink, exit 3/2/0 branches, PII
  auto-redact offer, guardrail-not-enforcement framing.

Registered in index.ts. 12 resolver tests. No SKILL.md churn yet (no template
references the placeholders until the per-skill wiring commits).

* feat(spec,cso): wire shared redaction — semantic pass + scan-at-sink + taxonomy

/spec Phase 4.5 rewrite:
- Phase 4.5a: in-conversation semantic content review (named-criticism,
  customer complaints, unannounced strategy, NDA, codename bleed). Injection-
  hardened (a body containing the SEMANTIC_REVIEW marker forces flagged).
  Content-free audit trail to ~/.gstack/security/semantic-reviews.jsonl.
- Phase 4.5b: replaces the inline 7-regex prose with the shared gstack-redact
  scan-at-sink (exact-byte temp file). Three enforcement points: pre-codex,
  pre-issue (files via --body-file from the scanned file), pre-archive (D2:
  sanitized body to the archive). --no-gate skips codex score only; redaction
  always runs, no flag disables it.

/cso: renders the full generated taxonomy table as its canonical pattern catalog
(shared source), keeps its git-history archaeology (different use case).

lib/redact-audit-log.ts: 0600 append-only semantic-review trail (no body text).
Resolver gains compact-table + brief-block variants so /spec references the
catalog instead of inlining it (stays under the v1.47 size budget).

Tests: extended spec invariants (semantic pass, scan-at-sink, no-promotion),
audit-log, cso/spec alignment. All green; spec 1.050× / cso 1.046× baseline.

* feat(ship,document-*): redaction scan-at-sink on PR bodies + generated docs

- /ship: scan the composed PR body + title before create AND edit, from a temp
  file (exact bytes scanned = bytes sent). HIGH blocks the PR (no skip); MEDIUM
  confirms per finding. Codex/Greptile/eval sections go in tool-attributed fences
  so example credentials those tools quote WARN-degrade instead of blocking the
  PR — a live-format credential inside the fence still blocks.
- /document-release: scan the PR-body temp file before gh pr edit.
- /document-generate: scan the staged doc diff (added lines) before commit —
  generated docs often carry example credentials; a live-format secret blocks.

Tests: ship-template-redaction (incl. tool-fence WARN-degrade contract),
document-skills-redaction. All skills stay under the v1.47 size budget.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(redact): semantic-pass eval + CLAUDE.md docs + size/parity baselines

- test/redact-semantic-pass.eval.ts: periodic-tier paid eval (EVALS=1) with 10
  should-flag / should-clean fixtures + an injection-resistance case, the only
  way to detect semantic-pass model drift.
- CLAUDE.md: "Redaction guard" section — engine/CLI/hook locations, the
  guardrail-not-enforcement framing, scan-at-sink, no-tier-promotion, the
  tool-attributed-fence convention, the config keys, and the audit log.
- /cso uses the compact (HIGH-tier) taxonomy table so it fits under BOTH the
  v1.47 and the older v1.44.1 parity ceilings; full MEDIUM/LOW lives in
  lib/redact-patterns.ts. Alignment test asserts the HIGH-tier contract.
- Refresh the ship golden baselines (claude/codex/factory) for the PR-body
  redaction wiring.

Full free suite green (incl. skill-size-budget + parity 10/10).

* v1.52.1.0 feat: brain-aware planning — 5 skills read structured gbrain context before asking (#1742)

* feat(brain): brain-cache-spec.ts — single source of truth for cache layer

Foundation for the brain-aware planning skills work (v1.48 plan / D2).
One TS const file consolidates BRAIN_CACHE_ENTITIES (8 entities × TTL +
budget + invalidation rules), SKILL_DIGEST_SUBSETS (per-skill which
files to load), SALIENCE_DEFAULT_ALLOWLIST (D9 privacy gate),
SKILL_CALIBRATION_WEIGHTS (Phase 2 E5), and policy / identity / schema
constants.

Drift between docs and runtime becomes impossible by construction:
resolver, cache CLI, and test/skill-preflight-budget.test.ts all import
from the same module.

test/brain-cache-spec.test.ts: 19 invariant assertions (subset/entity
consistency, per-skill achievability, allowlist sanity, transport
defaults, user-slug fallback chain, lock timeout, retention policy).

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

* feat(brain): gstack-core@1.0.0 schema pack (T1 / Phase 0)

Defines 8 typed page kinds for the brain entity model:
  gstack/user-profile, gstack/product, gstack/goal,
  gstack/developer-persona, gstack/brand, gstack/competitive-intel,
  gstack/skill-run, gstack/take

Each declares frontmatter shape (typed fields with required/optional flags),
retention policy (immutable / archive-after-90d / never-archive), and
emits_links graph for mcp__gbrain__schema_graph rendering.

getSchemaPackMutationPayload() returns JSON in the shape accepted by
mcp__gbrain__schema_apply_mutations. Idempotent registration: gbrain
skips when pack+version already installed.

test/gstack-schema-pack.test.ts: 16 invariants on pack shape, retention
policies, link verb consistency, JSON serializability.

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

* feat(brain): gstack-brain-cache CLI (T2a) — core subcommands

bin/gstack-brain-cache: TS CLI with five subcommands:
  get <entity-name> [--project <slug>]
  refresh [--full] [--entity X] [--project <slug>]
  invalidate <entity-name> [--project <slug>]
  digest <entity-slug>
  meta [--project <slug>]

Cache layout per Phase 0.5 design:
  ~/.gstack/brain-cache/                 ← cross-project (user-profile)
  ~/.gstack/projects/<slug>/brain-cache/ ← per-project (everything else)

Per-entity TTL drives staleness; per-entity byte budgets enforce
compression at write time. Atomic writes via tmp+rename. Stale-but-usable
fallback when brain unreachable (returns cached digest with diagnostic
prefix instead of failing). Schema-version mismatch + endpoint switch
both trigger full rebuild for the affected scope (D4 A4).

Fetch+compress paths wired for the 7 entities (user-profile, product,
goals, developer-persona, brand, competitive-intel, recent-decisions,
salience) via gbrain CLI shell-out — works for local PGLite and
local-stdio MCP, transparent over the existing spawnGbrain helper.

Concurrent-refresh dedup (D3 / T15) is a follow-up commit. Salience
allowlist gate (D9 / T17) is a follow-up commit. Bootstrap + lifecycle
subcommands (T2b / T18) are follow-up commits.

test/brain-cache-roundtrip.test.ts: 11 tests covering path resolution,
meta lifecycle, endpoint detection, schema mismatch behavior, and the
four cache states (warm / cold-refreshed / stale-fallback / missing).

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

* feat(brain): concurrent-refresh lockfile dedup (T15 / D3)

When autoplan dispatches 4 planning skills back-to-back and they all hit
a cold-miss on the same digest, only ONE actually fetches from the brain.
The rest dedup via the project-scoped lockfile at
~/.gstack/projects/<slug>/brain-cache/.refresh.lock.

Reuses the 5-min stale-takeover convention from /sync-gbrain. Lock is
taken over when:
  - File is older than CACHE_REFRESH_LOCK_TIMEOUT_MS
  - PID is on the same host and dead (process.kill(pid, 0) fails)
  - Lock file is corrupt (defensive)

withRefreshLock(projectSlug, fn) returns either the callback's value or
the literal 'dedup'. The CLI emits exit code 3 + diagnostic stderr on
dedup, so callers can choose to wait + retry (resolver does this) or
fall through to stale-but-usable behavior.

test/cache-concurrent-refresh.test.ts: 7 tests covering acquire/release,
stale-takeover, dead-PID takeover, corrupt-lock recovery, error-path
release, and cross-project lock location.

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

* feat(brain): salience privacy allowlist gate (T17 / D9)

D9 cross-model finding from codex outside voice: salience-sourced digests
can include emotionally-weighted personal pages (family, therapy,
reflection). Pulling those into a coding-review prompt leaks sensitive
context into work-flow reasoning.

fetchSalience now strips entries whose slugs don't match an allowlist
prefix BEFORE writing to the cache file. Default allowlist is
SALIENCE_DEFAULT_ALLOWLIST = ['projects/', 'concepts/', 'gstack/'].
User can extend via:
  gstack-config set salience_allowlist 'projects/,gstack/,concepts/,custom/'
or override with GSTACK_SALIENCE_ALLOWLIST env var.

Digest still records the strip count for transparency. Empty result
emits 'all N entries stripped' note rather than silent absence.

test/salience-allowlist.test.ts: 9 tests covering default permits,
default blocks, empty allowlist, env override, whitespace trimming,
and the invariant that defaults contain nothing sensitive (personal,
family, therapy, reflection, private, medical, health).

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

* feat(brain): bootstrap + list + purge subcommands (T2b / T18)

T2b — bootstrap synthesizes draft entity content from CLAUDE.md + README
+ recent learnings.jsonl and emits as JSON for the caller. Skill template
is responsible for the AUQ-confirm-before-write flow (D10 T4 extraction-
review requirement). Cli stays pure (no AUQ logic); agent owns user
interaction.

T18 — list/purge subcommands close the lifecycle loop:
  list [--project <slug>] — enumerate gstack-owned pages in brain
                            (probe all 8 gstack/* page types)
  purge <slug>           — delete one gstack page, refuses non-gstack/
                            slugs (defensive)

list defaults to all-projects (cross-project user-profile included).
With --project, filters to per-project pages plus the cross-project
user-profile. --json flag emits machine-readable output for the agent.

Retention sweep + audit subcommand are deferred to a follow-up commit
(they need the lifecycle scheduling design, not just CLI plumbing).

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

* feat(brain): brain-aware planning resolvers + 3 new placeholders (T4)

scripts/resolvers/gbrain.ts adds:
  - generateBrainPreflight(ctx)       — emits per-skill ## Brain Context
                                        block + bash that loads digests via
                                        gstack-brain-cache get (one call per
                                        digest). Per-skill subset comes from
                                        SKILL_DIGEST_SUBSETS (single source).
  - generateBrainCacheRefresh(ctx)    — at-skill-end background refresh hook;
                                        non-blocking; warms cache for next run.
  - generateBrainWriteBack(ctx)       — Phase 2 / E5 calibration write-back
                                        with per-skill weight. Gated on
                                        personal trust policy + the
                                        BRAIN_CALIBRATION_WRITEBACK flag.
                                        Includes invalidation bash that busts
                                        affected digests after the write.

scripts/resolvers/index.ts registers three new placeholders:
  {{BRAIN_PREFLIGHT}}, {{BRAIN_CACHE_REFRESH}}, {{BRAIN_WRITE_BACK}}

All three resolvers return empty string for skills not in
SKILL_DIGEST_SUBSETS (defensive — skill template authors can drop the
placeholders into non-preflight skills with zero effect).

D9 privacy is mentioned in the rendered preflight prose so the agent
knows to expect filtered salience.
D11 codex tension: write-back gates on brain_trust_policy@<hash> being
personal — shared brains skip write-back to avoid polluting team
calibration profile.

test/brain-preflight.test.ts: 19 tests covering subset rendering,
non-preflight skill gating, cross-project vs per-project --project flag
emission, weight injection per skill, BRAIN_CALIBRATION_WRITEBACK flag
mention, and registration in RESOLVERS map.

* feat(brain): gstack-config brain integration helpers (T5+T10+T16)

Extends bin/gstack-config to support the brain-aware planning layer:

KEY VALIDATION (T5):
  Plain alphanumeric/underscore now extended to allow @<hex-hash> suffix.
  Required for per-endpoint namespaced keys (brain_trust_policy@<sha8>,
  user_slug_at_<sha8>). Keys without the suffix still validate as before.

VALUE WHITELISTING (D4 / D11):
  brain_trust_policy@* values gated to personal | shared | unset.
  Unknown values warn + default to unset (defense against typos).

NEW DEFAULTS (lookup_default):
  brain_trust_policy@*  -> unset
  salience_allowlist    -> '' (resolver uses SALIENCE_DEFAULT_ALLOWLIST)
  user_slug_at_*        -> '' (resolve-user-slug fills + persists on demand)

NEW SUBCOMMANDS:
  endpoint-hash      — print sha8 of active gbrain MCP URL from
                       ~/.claude.json. Collision check escalates to sha16
                       when a prior endpoint stored at the same sha8
                       would conflict (T10 defensive default).
  resolve-user-slug  — walks D4 A3 identity chain:
                         1. mcp__gbrain__whoami.client_name
                         2. $USER env var
                         3. sha8(git config user.email)
                         4. anonymous-<sha8(hostname)>
                       Persists result on first call so subsequent
                       calls are stable across sessions.

test/user-slug-fallback.test.ts: 14 tests covering endpoint-hash output
shape, fallback chain ordering, persistence, brain_trust_policy
namespace value validation + per-endpoint isolation, and key validator
extension for @-suffixed keys.

* feat(brain): wire 5 planning skill templates with BRAIN_* placeholders (T6)

Adds three placeholders to each of the 5 planning SKILL.md.tmpl files:
  {{BRAIN_PREFLIGHT}}     — top of skill body, before first interactive
                            section. Loads the per-skill digest subset
                            (5 files for office-hours, 2 for plan-eng-
                            review, etc.) into the prompt context before
                            any AskUserQuestion fires.
  {{BRAIN_WRITE_BACK}}    — end of skill, before refresh hook. Phase 2
                            calibration write path; gated on personal
                            policy + BRAIN_CALIBRATION_WRITEBACK flag.
  {{BRAIN_CACHE_REFRESH}} — end of skill, after write-back. Non-blocking
                            background refresh so next invocation gets
                            warm cache.

Files touched (templates + regenerated SKILL.md):
  office-hours/SKILL.md.tmpl
  plan-ceo-review/SKILL.md.tmpl
  plan-eng-review/SKILL.md.tmpl
  plan-design-review/SKILL.md.tmpl
  plan-devex-review/SKILL.md.tmpl
  (matching .md files regenerated via bun run gen:skill-docs)

All 5 generated SKILL.md files now contain the rendered ## Brain Context
(preflight) section + write-back guidance + background-refresh hook. The
resolver renders only for skills in SKILL_DIGEST_SUBSETS — these 5 + an
empty string for any other skill that drops in the placeholders.

* feat(brain): setup-gbrain trust-policy step + sync-gbrain flags (T5b / T13+T5c)

T5b — setup-gbrain Step 9.5:
  Inserts the brain trust policy AskUserQuestion before the verdict block.
  Detects active endpoint hash via gstack-config endpoint-hash. Branches
  per transport:
    * Local (sha == "local"): auto-set personal, one-line notice
    * Remote-MCP, unset: AskUserQuestion (personal vs shared)
    * Already-set: skip, just print current policy
  Personal default flips artifacts_sync_mode=full when still off.

T13+T5c — sync-gbrain:
  Adds two flag short-circuits:
    --refresh-cache : route to gstack-brain-cache refresh --project <slug>;
                       skip code + memory + brain-sync stages. Replaces
                       the planned /brain-refresh-context skill per D1
                       fold (one fewer always-loaded skill in catalog).
    --audit          : emit gstack-owned page summary + sensitive-content
                       leak check via gstack-brain-cache list. Read-only.
  Step 1 trust policy gate: fires the same AskUserQuestion as setup-gbrain
  Step 9.5 when policy is unset for a remote endpoint. Local engines
  auto-set personal silently. Idempotent for already-set policies.

Both templates re-rendered via bun run gen:skill-docs. Trust policy
question wording centralized in setup-gbrain Step 9.5; sync-gbrain
Step 1 references it to avoid prompt drift.

* test(brain): schema migration + fence-block fallback + preflight budget (T19+T21)

3 new gate-tier test files closing the most important coverage gaps in
the brain-aware planning layer:

test/schema-version-migration.test.ts (D4 A4):
  - Cache file with mismatched schema_version triggers wipe-and-rebuild
  - Matching version + fresh TTL stays warm-hit (no unnecessary rebuild)
  - Rebuild wipes ALL files in scope, not just the one being read

test/takes-fence-fallback.test.ts:
  - Every preflight skill mentions both takes_add (preferred) and
    put_page fence-block (fallback for pre-T8 gbrain versions)
  - All 5 skills gate on BRAIN_CALIBRATION_WRITEBACK flag + personal
    trust policy
  - Per-skill weight matches SKILL_CALIBRATION_WEIGHTS (E5)
  - Write-back emits the kind=bet frontmatter shape and invalidates
    affected cache digests

test/skill-preflight-budget.test.ts (T21 / D7):
  - Per-skill BRAIN_* instruction bytes stay under 3x the runtime
    digest budget (resolver bloat catch)
  - Autoplan total instruction bytes stay under 75 KB (3x of 25 KB
    runtime cap)
  - Non-preflight skills emit zero brain bytes
  - Per-skill subset references are present in the preflight bash

Note on the 3x multiplier: SKILL_PREFLIGHT_BUDGET_BYTES governs runtime
digest data (enforced by cache CLI truncateToBudget). Instruction text
emitted by the resolver gets a separate 3x headroom — anything beyond
that signals the instructions themselves are bloated and need a trim.

* docs(todos): brain-aware planning follow-ups (T11)

Adds five deferred items from the v1.48.0.0 brain-aware planning plan:

  - P2: /gstack-reflect nightly synthesis skill (E2, deferred D4)
  - P3: cross-machine brain-cache sync (E3, deferred D5)
  - P3: /gstack-onboarding dedicated skill (E4, deferred D6)
  - P2: upstream gbrain takes_add + takes_resolve MCP ops (T8 wrap-up)
  - P3: background-refresh hook supervision (codex outside-voice T3)

Each entry follows the TODOS.md format: What / Why / Pros / Cons /
Context / Effort / Depends on. Each cross-references the v1.48.0.0
review decision (D-numbers from /plan-ceo-review and /plan-eng-review)
that deferred it.

The plan itself is at ~/.claude/plans/hm-interesting-well-why-dapper-eagle.md
and is NOT a TODO entry (it's a one-shot design doc, not ongoing work).

* test(brain): bump schema-migration test timeout to 60s

Rebuild path fans out to 7 per-project entity refreshes, each shelling
gbrain with 10s internal timeout. Worst case ~70s. Default bun test
5s was timing out on slow brain unreachable cases.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v1.50.0.0)

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

* fix(test): tighten put_page regression pin to CLI subcommand

The test asserted no substring 'put_page' anywhere in the resolver,
but the BRAIN_WRITE_BACK resolver legitimately references the MCP op
`mcp__gbrain__put_page` as the fallback path for calibration takes
when gbrain v0.42+'s `takes_add` op isn't available. The check
conflated the deprecated `gbrain put_page` CLI subcommand (renamed in
v0.18+ to `gbrain put`) with the still-valid MCP op of the same name.

Narrow the assertion to `gbrain put_page` (with the space) so the
fallback prose stays legal while the CLI rename regression stays caught.

* feat(brain): gstack-config gbrain-refresh subcommand

Adds a new subcommand that re-detects gbrain installation state and
persists the result to ~/.gstack/gbrain-detection.json. The detection
file is consumed by gen-skill-docs --respect-detection (next commit)
to decide whether to render the GBRAIN_CONTEXT_LOAD and
GBRAIN_SAVE_RESULTS resolver blocks in user-local SKILL.md generation.

Reuses the existing bin/gstack-gbrain-detect helper for the actual
probe; this subcommand just persists + summarizes. Users run it after
installing or uninstalling gbrain so their locally generated SKILL.md
files match their installation state.

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

* feat(brain): gen-skill-docs respects gbrain-detection override

Adds --respect-detection flag (and bun run gen:skill-docs:user script).
When the flag is set, gen-skill-docs reads ~/.gstack/gbrain-detection.json
and filters GBRAIN_CONTEXT_LOAD + GBRAIN_SAVE_RESULTS out of each host's
suppressedResolvers when gbrain_local_status is "ok". When absent or
gbrain isn't detected, suppression behaves as before.

The default `bun run gen:skill-docs` (CI canonical) ignores the
detection file so the committed SKILL.md stays reproducible regardless
of any developer's local gbrain installation state. Use
gen:skill-docs:user for user-local installs (./setup invokes it).

No host config files modified — the static suppressedResolvers stay
correct for the no-gbrain case; the override happens at gen-time.

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

* feat(brain): setup runs gbrain detection + conditional SKILL.md regen

At the end of install, ./setup now:
  1. Runs bin/gstack-gbrain-detect, persists the result to
     ~/.gstack/gbrain-detection.json
  2. If gbrain_local_status == "ok", regenerates Claude-host SKILL.md
     via `bun run gen:skill-docs:user --host claude` so the user's
     local install picks up the compressed brain-aware blocks
  3. If gbrain isn't detected, leaves the canonical no-gbrain SKILL.md
     files in place (zero token overhead) and surfaces the
     gstack-config gbrain-refresh path for users who install gbrain
     later

Together with the prior two commits, this completes the setup-time
conditional un-suppression: brain-aware blocks render iff the user
has gbrain installed, regardless of which CLI host they're on.

* refactor(brain): compress GBRAIN_* resolvers, move template prose to docs/

generateGBrainContextLoad: 80 -> 115 tokens with explicit skip-header.
generateGBrainSaveResults: 500-700 -> 161 tokens per skill with the
skill metadata extracted into a typed skillSaveMap (slugPrefix + title
+ tag). Verbose prose (heredoc body, entity-stub instructions, throttle
handling, backlink protocol) moved into a new doc:
docs/gbrain-write-surfaces.md (Sections: §Context Load, §Save Template).
The agent reads the doc on-demand only when actually saving — one Read
call, cached by Claude's context.

Net per-planning-skill overhead under un-suppression drops from ~1000
tokens (naive un-suppression) to ~275 tokens (compressed). Combined
with the setup-time detection from prior commits, users WITHOUT gbrain
pay zero overhead (block suppressed at gen-time) and users WITH gbrain
pay ~275 tokens.

The /investigate special-case (data-research routing in CONTEXT_LOAD)
stays inline since it's skill-specific.

docs/gbrain-write-surfaces.md also serves as the manual-probe reference
for humans verifying live persistence + a topology summary covering
trust-policy + .gbrain-source reads-only semantics.

* feat(brain): wire SAVE_RESULTS for plan-design-review + plan-devex-review

Adds {{GBRAIN_SAVE_RESULTS}} placeholder to the two planning skills
that were missing it, immediately before {{BRAIN_WRITE_BACK}} (mirrors
plan-eng-review:324 + office-hours:650). The corresponding skillSaveMap
entries (design-reviews/<feature-slug> + devex-reviews/<feature-slug>)
landed with the resolver compression in the prior commit.

Regenerated SKILL.md reflects the new placeholder position. The
default no-gbrain generation (CI canonical) still suppresses the
block — zero diff in the rendered output for non-gbrain users.

All five planning skills now write a retrievable review page to gbrain
when gbrain is detected at setup time, instead of three of five.

* test(brain): resolver compression + detection-override regression pins

test/resolvers-gbrain-save-results.test.ts (140 LOC, 10 tests):
  - Per-skill assertions for all 5 planning skills: emits gbrain put +
    correct slug prefix + tag + title.
  - Skip-header present so agent can short-circuit when gbrain isn't
    on PATH.
  - Compression pin: each per-skill block stays under 750 chars
    (~190 tokens) — guards against a future "let me add one more
    line" refactor silently re-inflating toward the ~1000-token naive
    un-suppression baseline.
  - Generic fallback for unmapped skill names still works.
  - /investigate gets the data-research routing suffix; non-investigate
    skills do not.
  - generateGBrainContextLoad stays under 500 chars (~125 tokens).

test/gbrain-detection-override.test.ts (120 LOC, 4 tests):
  - End-to-end through gen-skill-docs subprocess against an isolated
    temp GSTACK_HOME. Asserts:
    * detected:true un-suppresses GBRAIN_* → SKILL.md gains the block
    * detected:false (status != "ok") suppresses → no block
    * no detection file suppresses → no block (graceful default)
    * no --respect-detection flag IGNORES the detection file → no
      block (CI canonical path stays reproducible)

Each detection-override test restores the canonical SKILL.md in a
finally block so the working tree stays clean.

* test(brain): fake-CLI agent-obedience E2E for /office-hours writeback

test/skill-e2e-office-hours-brain-writeback.test.ts (~210 LOC,
periodic-tier, ~$0.50-1/run):

Drives /office-hours via runSkillTest against a deterministic fixture
brief (pixel.fund founder pitch). The workdir has:
  - A regenerated office-hours/SKILL.md with the compressed brain blocks
    (generated via gen-skill-docs --respect-detection against a temp
    GSTACK_HOME, then restored to canonical post-snapshot)
  - A fake gbrain shell script on PATH that uses printf %q quoting to
    preserve --content "$(cat <<'EOF' ... EOF)" heredoc payloads
    intact (naive `echo "$@"` would lose argv boundaries)
  - The docs/gbrain-write-surfaces.md the resolver points to

Asserts:
  - gbrain-calls.log contains `gbrain put office-hours/pixel-fund`
  - Payload file at gbrain-payloads/office-hours/pixel-fund.md exists
    with valid YAML frontmatter (title: + tags: + design-doc tag)
  - At least one gbrain put entities/<name> call (entity stub
    enrichment is best-effort, soft warning if absent)

Covers agent obedience to the SAVE_RESULTS instruction. Out of scope:
gbrain CLI persistence contract (T11 covers that with real PGLite).

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

* test(brain): real PGLite round-trip E2E (matched-pair persistence)

test/skill-e2e-gbrain-roundtrip-local.test.ts (~145 LOC, periodic-tier,
~$0.001/run on Voyage):

Real gbrain CLI round-trip against an isolated temp HOME:
  1. gbrain init --pglite --embedding-model voyage:voyage-code-3
  2. gbrain put office-hours/<unique-slug> --content <markdown>
  3. gbrain get <slug>
  4. Assert every body line survives + title + tags + non-empty

This is the matched-pair check for the v1.50.0.0 question "is the data
we hope to save actually being saved?" — proves the gbrain CLI
persistence contract gstack relies on, against a real engine.

Does NOT involve the agent — pure CLI integration test. The agent
obedience side is covered by the fake-CLI E2E in the prior commit.

Skips cleanly when VOYAGE_API_KEY is unset OR gbrain CLI is missing
from PATH, so CI without secrets degrades gracefully.

Remote/Supabase routing is gbrain's contract — the same CLI shape
works against every engine. gstack stops at local round-trip coverage
to avoid re-testing gbrain's MCP client implementation.

* chore(brain): touchfiles + TODOS + CHANGELOG for v1.50.0.0

test/helpers/touchfiles.ts: register the two new E2Es in
E2E_TOUCHFILES + E2E_TIERS (both periodic):
  - office-hours-brain-writeback: triggered by resolver / gen-pipeline /
    detection helper / refresh subcommand / office-hours template /
    docs / fixture / test file changes
  - gbrain-roundtrip-local: triggered by resolver / test file changes

TODOS.md: append two P2 follow-ups carried over from the v1.50 plan:
  - Re-verify calibration takes when gbrain v0.42+ ships takes_add and
    BRAIN_CALIBRATION_WRITEBACK flips TRUE
  - Extend brain-writeback E2E to the other 4 planning skills (extract
    makeFakeGbrain to test/helpers/fake-gbrain.ts when second consumer
    arrives)

CHANGELOG.md v1.50.0.0: add a "Save-results path: works under any CLI
when gbrain is on PATH" section that documents the headline:
  - Conditional inclusion at setup-time (zero overhead for non-gbrain
    users, ~250 tokens with gbrain)
  - Wiring symmetry fix (5 of 5 planning skills now write a page)
  - Token cost table comparing detection states
  - Test coverage map (resolver unit + override mechanism + fake-CLI
    agent obedience + real PGLite round-trip)
  - Why remote routing isn't tested here (gbrain's contract)

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

* test(brain): tighten prompt + relax slug assertion in writeback E2E

Two fixes:

1. Prompt: "Slug it 'pixel-fund'" was ambiguous — agent could read it
   as "use pixel-fund as the FULL slug" instead of "substitute
   pixel-fund for <feature-slug>". Replaced with explicit guidance:
   "The feature-slug value to substitute into the SAVE_RESULTS
   template's <feature-slug> placeholder is exactly 'pixel-fund' (no
   path prefix — the template already provides the prefix). Apply the
   SAVE_RESULTS template literally." Also added "Do NOT explore gbrain
   --help" to short-circuit the discovery loop the agent fell into.

2. Slug assertion: was a strict /gbrain put .*office-hours\/pixel-fund/
   regex. This conflated two concerns — agent obedience (does the
   agent actually invoke gbrain put?) vs resolver output shape (does
   the template emit the right prefix?). The latter is already pinned
   by test/resolvers-gbrain-save-results.test.ts at the resolver level
   (free, hermetic). The E2E now asserts /gbrain put .*pixel-fund/
   (slug contains pixel-fund somewhere) plus a recursive payload-file
   search that accepts either office-hours/pixel-fund.md (template-
   faithful) or pixel-fund.md (agent dropped prefix). The YAML
   frontmatter + tag assertions on the payload remain strict — those
   are the real agent-obedience contract.

3. Entity-stub regex: was looking for entities/<name>; agent
   variability uses entity/<name>, people/<name>, companies/<name>.
   Loosened to match entit(y|ies) only. The soft-warning path stays
   (no hard fail) because entity extraction is best-effort prose, not
   a CLI contract.

Verified passing locally: 7 expect() calls, 268s, ~$0.50.

* chore: bump version to 1.51.1.0

main advanced to 1.51.0.0 while this branch was in development. Bump
to 1.51.1.0 (PATCH above main) so the branch lands cleanly above the
current main version per the monotonic-ordered-release invariant.

Renames the branch-internal [1.50.0.0] CHANGELOG entry to [1.51.1.0] —
1.50.0.0 never landed on main (main skipped to 1.51.0.0), so this
consolidates the branch's brain-aware planning + save-results work
under a single shipping version with no orphaned entry.

* v1.52.2.0 fix(make-pdf): render emoji instead of tofu (▯) on Linux (#1787)

* fix(make-pdf): emoji font fallback in print CSS

Emoji code points rendered as .notdef tofu (▯) because the body and
@top-center font stacks had no emoji family for Chromium to fall back to.
Add SANS_STACK / CJK_STACK / EMOJI_FAMILIES constants (one source of truth
per family list) and append the emoji families before the generic
sans-serif in the two stacks that can hold emoji. The @bottom-* boxes hold
counters / a fixed CONFIDENTIAL string, so they share SANS_STACK without
emoji. Non-emoji output is byte-identical.

* feat(setup): auto-install color-emoji font on Linux

macOS and Windows ship a color-emoji font; most Linux distros/containers
ship none, so make-pdf emits tofu there. ensure_emoji_font() best-effort
installs fonts-noto-color-emoji (apt, with dnf/pacman/apk fallbacks) and
refreshes the fontconfig cache. Hardened: Linux-only guard, GSTACK_SKIP_FONTS
escape hatch, fc-match color=True detection (the broad fc-list query
false-matched LastResort), sudo -n so a password prompt fails fast instead
of hanging, DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive, timeout 30 on apt update, and
fc-cache under sudo. Warns instead of failing. After a fresh install,
refresh_browse_daemon_for_fonts() runs 'browse stop' so the next render
spawns a Chromium that sees the new font (font fallback is process-cached).

* test(make-pdf): emoji render gate (pdffonts + pixel proof)

pdftotext is a false oracle for emoji: Skia preserves the Unicode in the
text cluster even when the glyph drew as .notdef tofu, so extraction passes
on a broken render. The gate instead asserts (1) pdffonts shows an emoji
family embedded and (2) pdftoppm rasterizes the page to color (measured
~1650 saturated pixels vs ~0 for tofu). pdfimages is not used: macOS embeds
color emoji as Type 3 fonts, so it lists nothing even on a correct render.
Adds resolvePopplerTool() (DRY resolver, returns null for clean skips) and
a fixture exercising FE0F variation-selector emoji. Skips cleanly when
poppler tools or a color-emoji font are unavailable.

* ci(make-pdf): install emoji font + run emoji gate on Ubuntu

Install fonts-noto-color-emoji before Chromium launches on the Ubuntu leg
(macOS already ships Apple Color Emoji), refresh fontconfig, and log the
fc-match result. Run the whole make-pdf/test/e2e/ dir so the emoji gate runs
alongside the combined-features copy-paste gate.

* harden(make-pdf): emoji gate + font install per adversarial review

Codex adversarial pass on the implementation diff flagged five robustness
gaps, all fixed here:
- emoji-gate skipped green in CI when poppler/font prerequisites were absent,
  which could let the tofu regression ship behind a green build. Missing
  prerequisites are now a HARD FAILURE when process.env.CI is set; local dev
  still skips cleanly.
- execFileSync children (make-pdf, pdffonts, pdftoppm, fc-match) had no
  timeout; a wedged binary or hostile GSTACK_*_BIN override could hang the
  job past Bun's test timeout. Each child now has a 25s ceiling.
- PPM parser trusted header tokens blindly; malformed/variant output gave a
  silently-wrong count. Now validates magic/dimensions/maxval and pixel-buffer
  length, handles header comments, throws a hard diagnostic on mismatch.
- predictable /tmp paths were collision/symlink-prone; now mkdtempSync under
  /tmp (kept under /tmp for browse's validateOutputPath allowlist).
- only apt-get update was timeout-wrapped; dnf/pacman/apk installs and apt
  install can hang on locks/mirrors. All package installs now timeout-bound.
