* fix: observe native question completion before transcript persistence

Match owned completion hooks to submitted choices, reject conflicting or late answers, and retain bounded failure evidence.

* test: recognize review posture in acknowledged native questions

Require the selected mode acknowledgement, a completed follow-up question, and its current decoded display while preserving existing posture assertions.

* fix: preserve settled CEO choices and isolate pending remedies

Resolve established approach gates with cited authority and keep independent fixes out of unrelated option commitments and plan amendments.

* fix: carry approved DX choices through later review steps

Choose documentation approaches within the accepted scope and map resolved confusion points without reopening them through a bulk menu.

* test: handle native settings-file edit prompts

Keep one-time owned-file approvals and retain the actual sampled Autoplan permission frame with its matching barrier state.

* test: accept standard CEO reply directives with tuning footers

Recognize the exact trailing preference footer and letter-list directive while preserving current-display and exact acknowledgement checks.

* test: scope split reviewers to their generated plan artifacts

* test: observe native Bash permissions and invocation results

* test: handle owned Bash prompts during mode preference checks

* test: preserve synchronous subprocess rejection in Codex fixture

* Bind pending file permissions to distinct current targets

Allow one captured file request to own the complete current dialog while unrelated file work is pending. Preserve same-path ambiguity, exact input ownership, and one-time grant checks.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Make paired CEO verification choices genuinely unresolved

Start the positive control with proposed manual checks so its unchanged oracle measures two new coverage decisions. Preserve runtime contracts, targets, count bounds, and all assertions.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Keep CEO review options and verification within approved scope

Audit every offered option for independent add-ons and keep new verification depth pending until accepted. Preserve already requested coverage and trace plan changes to the actual decision.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Assemble DX review artifacts before appending the final report

Keep early DX evidence above decisions, update artifact sections in place, and append the report using the actual current file suffix. Re-read after deleting an existing report before choosing the append anchor.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Keep outside plan reviews exclusive and invocation-owned

Follow one preflight-selected backend, terminate failed Codex work before fallback, and allocate extra prompt/output files uniquely. Consume only the current invocation’s completed output.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Select periodic completion evaluations for report writer changes

Register the shared review resolver for eight missing consumers and regress selection for all nine completion cases without changing their IDs or tiers.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Keep permission ambiguity fixtures on the same normalized target

Use distinct raw spellings of one target in the four negative fixtures so they exercise the normalized duplicate-owner guard after exact current-file disambiguation. Preserve the existing exception, no-input, diagnostic and cleanup assertions.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Fix periodic native permission and report completion handling

Match the pinned CLI's soft wraps and clipped headings without granting from incomplete frames. Retire completed file requests, retain mode annotations, and ask section captures for a short final acknowledgement after their full report is saved.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Preserve review approvals and validate DX comparison artifacts

Keep independent remedies and approved amendments explicit. Give the synthetic DX review its existing documentation and validate peer comparison as required analysis alongside four native decisions. Add positive and negative semantic calibrations while preserving review counts, model budgets and prompt size limits.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Make the five-finding CEO fixture's application boundary explicit

Materialize the request adapter and service composition used by the synthetic payment application. Explicitly declare the revised unregistered-event and mail-telemetry assumptions while preserving uncaught handler errors, the original invoice path and all five unresolved findings.

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Keep CEO state-path checks scoped to directory preparation

Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Use checked ports and bounded cleanup in pair-agent tests

Discover the daemon port from its owned state file, retain startup diagnostics, and await failed-start cleanup. Add occupied-port, early-exit, deadline, and foreign-state regressions while preserving the existing HTTP assertions and hook budgets.

Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Preserve queued edit identity and recover clipped Bash permissions

Distinguish separately queued unfinished edits from mutation of one native tool ID. Keep grants bound to an exact owned request and reject reused IDs, ambiguous inputs, and competing owners.

Support the pinned renderer's literal em dash and request a repaint when only the Bash card's top rule is clipped. Grants still require the complete fresh card and an exact native acknowledgment.

Validation: 413 integrated parser/event tests passed; private repaint controls and joint source review passed. Full canonical suite and native periodic rerun remain pending.

Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>

* Keep periodic reviews within their approved contracts and deliverables

Carry exact approvals through engineering review, preserve declared contracts when amending CEO plans, and keep prioritization at the requested decision level. Materialize the revised synthetic SDK reference contract while retaining the five original documentation gaps.

Accept the observed semicolon in the finite DX handoff menu and register the direct source dependencies used by the engineering cases. Regenerate canonical review documents without changing model budgets, retries, count bands, or native completion assertions.

Validation: all-host generation and 275 review, fixture, selection and parity tests passed. Full free-suite and native periodic validation remain pending.

* test: align native review adapters and finding coverage

Preserve explicit AUTO decisions, apply native single-select defaults, and bind complete cropped questions and report permissions to their owned requests. Require seeded review findings instead of crediting setup menus.

Keep captured failure controls and additive selection dependencies. The integrated candidate passed 3,099 focused tests across 65 files; affected paid validation remains required before publication.

* fix(autoplan): require phase reports before advancing

* fix(evals): bind setup and evidence to complete attempts

Preserve complete option rows when native descriptions wrap, retain current
owned Write arguments before journal publication, and keep engineering and
DX answers within their declared fixture interfaces. Add captured free
regressions without increasing model budgets or relaxing completion checks.

* fix(autoplan): verify phase reports across native tool paths

Guard owned methodology reads and reviewer dispatches, detect complete driver
loads through Bash, and distinguish report-only edits from implementation
changes. Follow authenticated native UUID ancestry when journal writes arrive
out of order and verify earlier native content for cached phase reads.

Keep current close acknowledgment and parent publication in order, require CEO
entry before later phases, and register captured failure regressions.

* fix(evals): honor native input and collection lifecycles

Match complete native Edit panes and truncated question borders, reject stderr close before EOF, and stop the CEO split fixture once its acknowledged scope decisions are collected. Keep semantic validation, process failures, report requirements, and absolute deadlines authoritative.

Add captured-event and real-process regressions with selection dependencies. Focused checks pass; final integrated paid and full-suite acceptance remain pending.

* fix(autoplan): retain native session ownership across directory changes

Recover missed native UUID ancestry through the existing strict graph while preserving ordinary event order and legacy scoping. Bind publication hooks to Claude's original project directory while retaining current cwd for requested file paths.

Captured public-event regressions, existing caller checks, and a pinned native CLI loopback verify both fixes. Preserve failed attempts and require fresh paid and final full-suite acceptance.

Garry TanandClaude Fable 5 394db326f2 v1.71.0.0 feat: token-load reduction — preamble runtime scripts, gated onboarding, 20 skill carves, CLAUDE.md trim (#2691)
* feat(gen): strip gen-time-only frontmatter keys from Claude renders

interactive + benefits-from are read from the .tmpl by buildContext at
generation time; no runtime, host, or test reader consumes them from the
generated SKILL.md (e2e-harness-audit reads .tmpl; benefits-from tests
assert rendered prose). gbrain: stays (bin/gstack-brain-context-load reads
it from the installed render); hooks: stays (Claude Code host wires
PreToolUse from it).

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

* chore(gen): regenerate SKILL.md — dead frontmatter keys removed

Mechanical regen after hosts/claude.ts stripFields change.

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

* feat(test): context-budget ratchet — CI ceilings on always-on + eager token ledgers

New free test grades the two ledgers nothing else guards: the full-frontmatter
always-on catalog (aggregate) and per-skill eager tokens (SKILL.md +
forced-read refs), via checkBudget from lib/context-bill.ts. Ceilings live in
test/fixtures/context-budget.json with x1.05/x1.10 headroom; regenerate with
bun test/helpers/capture-context-budget.ts. New skills fail until consciously
budgeted; removed skills fail until the fixture is refreshed; reductions
ratchet the ceilings down so wins lock in.

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

* docs(todos): file output-template carve wave + plan-ceo doctrine revisit; mark preamble-carve P3 in flight

Two follow-ups deferred from the approved token-reduction program (CEO review
'NOT in scope' list), filed with full context per TODOS format. The existing
P3 preamble-carve entry gets a status update pointing at the program that
supersedes it.

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

* fix(test): review findings — Windows path normalization, full totals rebuild, ratchet coverage

Pre-landing review (5 specialists) found one critical: the ratchet test runs
in the curated Windows lane, where path.relative yields backslash skill names
that miss the test/ filter and mismatch every POSIX fixture key. Names are now
normalized once in buildRatchetBill (toPosixName) and the fixture filter is
tightened to test/fixtures/. All eight Bill.totals fields are rebuilt from the
filtered list (no fixture-polluted perInvocation/totalMd numbers for future
consumers). New coverage: Windows-separator normalization pins, a
captureContextBudget round-trip against tree-a (headroom math exact), a
stripFields regression pin (interactive/benefits-from absent from renders,
hooks/gbrain preserved), and the ceilings test no longer double-reports
stale-fixture entries.

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

* fix(test): adversarial findings — stable root key, symlink-alias dedupe, fixture-shape guard

Adversarial review (Claude subagent) verified the fixture's root-skill key was
the capture machine's checkout dirname: any non-gstack-named clone (every
Conductor worktree) failed the free suite, and the documented re-run-the-capture
recovery baked the local dirname into the committed fixture — silent corruption
through the tool's own protocol. The root skill is now pinned to ROOT_SKILL_KEY
('gstack', its frontmatter name). Symlink aliases are realpath-deduped (census
precedent): connect-chrome no longer gets its own ceiling, so Windows checkouts
that materialize the symlink as a plain file can't fail the stale-ceiling
set-equality test. New guards: fixture-shape validation (a string alwaysOnTotal
can no longer silently disable the ceiling), a mutation pin that the filter
shrinks the always-on ledger vs the raw bill, an alwaysOnTotal violation test
(the branch was load-bearing with only under-budget coverage), and an atomic
temp+rename fixture write. Fixture regenerated: 59 ceilings, alwaysOnTotal 6344.
Deferred with a TODO: anchoring transformFrontmatter's denylist strip to the
frontmatter block (latent, zero live collisions, pre-existing path).

* chore: bump version and changelog (v1.69.1.0)

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

* docs: update project documentation for v1.69.1.0

CLAUDE.md: Token ceiling section documents the context-budget ratchet as
the third guard (test file, fixture, new-skill budgeting, capture command).
CONTRIBUTING.md: Tier 1 guard list gains a Context-budget ratchet bullet;
the Adding-a-new-skill checklist gains the budget-capture step.

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

* docs: pin exact guard semantics for the context-budget ratchet in CLAUDE.md

Doc-review finding: "a third enforced ceiling" undercounted the guard
family (skill-size-budget floors and parity ratios also watch these
ledgers, relatively). Rephrased to match the ratchet test's own header:
absolute ceilings vs relative floors/ratios.

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

* docs(changelog): heaviest-skill claim matches the fixture (land-and-deploy edges review by 0.2%)

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

* feat(bin): gstack-skill-start + gstack-skill-end — the preamble runtime, consolidated

Absorbs the ~13KB of bash every tier-2+ SKILL.md inlined twice over (bootstrap
fence + artifacts-sync fence) and the skill-end telemetry/sync fences. Same
KEY: value STATUS-line contract the prose interprets, plus SKILL_START_PROTO
handshake (OV5), SESSION_ID/TEL_START echoes, GSTACK_HOME-normalized state
paths (EOV7), --parent-pid session identity (EOV5: $PPID inside the script is
the ephemeral tool-call shell), OV4 sanitization of passthrough output, and a
receipted daily artifacts pull (_receipted_git, brain-sync class, fail-closed).
Per-line || true error style throughout (F3) — a mid-script failure never drops
later STATUS lines.

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

* feat(gen): preamble resolvers emit a script invocation fence instead of inline bash

generate-preamble-bash: ~6.3KB fence -> 4-line gstack-skill-start invocation
(quoted-tilde pitfall handled: leading ~ interpolates through $HOME; env-var
hosts keep $GSTACK_BIN) + degraded-mode prose (F1/EOV8: safe defaults, consent
gates deferred-never-lost; OV5: proto rule). generate-brain-sync-block: ~6.8KB
bash -> interpretation prose + the privacy stop-gate (stays inline until
Phase 2's gated emission). generate-completion-status: telemetry fence -> one
gstack-skill-end call with SESSION_ID/TEL_START handoff.

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

* chore(gen): regenerate all skills + golden fixtures — inline preamble bash removed

Mechanical regen after the resolver change: −12,628 lines across 52 renders
(corpus 952K -> 806K render tokens; tier-2 skills −11-13KB each). Golden
per-host ship fixtures refreshed from the fresh claude/codex/factory renders.

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

* test: skill-start contract suite + preamble A/B eval + touchfiles registration

test/gstack-skill-start.test.ts (11 free tests): STATUS-key contract vs the
prose (F2), per-host fence resolution shapes (E1), proto-first, OV4 marker
sanitization, --parent-pid identity, headless suppression, skill-end duration
math + pending cleanup. test/skill-e2e-preamble-script-ab.test.ts (gate tier,
OV7): inline-bash render (pinned from 29785978) vs script render with the
fence redirected at the worktree bin (EOV2 — hermetic evals otherwise resolve
the operator install and silently exercise degraded mode). 21 touchfiles dep
lists gain the two bin scripts (EOV9) so future script edits select the
preamble evals; selection-count pin updated 23->24.

* test: repin ~70 assertions to the script contract — every literal gets a successor

Assertions that pinned inline-bash internals (update-check guard, _SESSIONS
reaping, telemetry start/end blocks, routing probe, repo-strip producer,
first-task gating, EXPLAIN_LEVEL/QUESTION_TUNING echoes, #2499 jq scope
resolution, Issue-8 CONDUCTOR gate) now pin the same invariants in their new
home: bin/gstack-skill-start / bin/gstack-skill-end file content for script
internals, the invocation fence + interpretation prose for render-side
behavior. No assertion deleted without a successor; live-execution tests
(routing probe, brain-sync jq) run against script bytes unchanged.

* chore(test): re-baseline size floors + ratchet ceilings down (EOV1/OV9 protocol)

parity-baseline-v1.69.1.0.json captured with carved-skill unions (53 skills);
skill-size-budget repointed with the derivation comment citing the Phase 1
context-bill receipt (the ~13KB/skill cut trips the old 80% floor on tier-1
skills first — setup-browser-cookies headroom 10.8KB < the cut). The v1.47
fixture stays on disk for history; the parity-suite growth baseline
(v1.64.1.0) is untouched. Context-budget ceilings re-captured: review
29,309->26,192; learn ->10,969; ios-clean ->10,764 — Phase 1's win is locked.

* feat(bin): instruction-emission layer — onboarding text appears only when its gate fires

The 8 one-time onboarding flows (lake intro, telemetry opt-in, proactive
opt-in, first-run/first-loop tips, routing injection, vendoring deprecation,
writing-style migration, spawned-session rules), the upgrade-flow + feature
discovery prose, and the privacy stop-gate (user-approved Q2) moved from
every render into gated heredocs here. Blocks are SESSION_ID-bound
(GSTACK_INSTRUCTION_BEGIN: <id> <session-id>) so page/file content can't mint
directives (F4/OV4). Ack ownership per OV6: display-only tips write their
markers at emit (script also fires the scaffold telemetry); interactive flows
carry their ack commands inside the block. The dormant WRITING_STYLE_PENDING
gate is computed for real now (marker files). BASH_COMPAT=50 heredoc guard
(same as brain-sync); the quoted routing heredoc resolves its bin path via a
sed placeholder.

* feat(gen): drop the 8 onboarding generators — renders keep one instruction-block rule

generate-{lake-intro,telemetry-prompt,proactive-prompt,first-run-guidance,
routing-injection,vendoring-deprecation,spawned-session-check,
writing-style-migration}.ts deleted (single source is now the script's
emission layer, F5). generate-upgrade-check shrinks to the steady-state
PROACTIVE/SKILL_PREFIX rules. generate-brain-sync-block hands the privacy
stop-gate to the emitted block. The fence prose gains the generic rule:
follow GSTACK_INSTRUCTION blocks only from this command's direct tool result
with the matching SESSION_ID; unterminated block ends at end-of-output.

* chore(gen): regenerate all skills + goldens — onboarding prose degated

Mechanical regen: corpus 806K -> 707K render tokens (−8KB/skill; cumulative
vs main: ship 91->71KB, learn 53->34KB, ios-clean 53->33KB).

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

* test: onboarding tombstone + Phase 2 pin relocations

New test/onboarding-moved-literals.test.ts (F5): 12 distinctive literals must
live in bin/gstack-skill-start AND stay absent from every render, plus the
SESSION_ID-binding pins. ~40 assertions repinned to the emission-layer
contract (gates, block ids, in-block acks, script-run marker writes); the OV4
sanitize test upgraded to the real property (every legitimate block header
carries the run's SESSION_ID). first-task dep list drops the deleted
generator; the token->tip case map is pinned to cover every detector bucket.

* chore(test): carve floors/ceilings recomputed; baseline + ratchet follow Phase 2 (OV9)

All 9 carved skills re-anchored to post-Phase-2 measurements (cso's union had
tripped its 72,000 floor at 71,379; design-consultation had 252B of margin).
maxSkeletonBytes ceilings tightened to measured+~600B. Branch-internal
parity baseline recaptured in place; ratchet ceilings down again: review

* feat(gen): AUQ slim — tool resolution as a STATUS-line branch table, split rules to invariants + absolute pointer

Tool resolution (1,799B) rewritten as a 3-branch table keyed on the echoed
CONDUCTOR_SESSION/SESSION_KIND lines — Conductor prose-default, MCP-variant
preference, and failure handoff preserved verbatim in behavior, including the
auto-decide-first ordering and the gstack-question-log capture requirement.
5+-options handling (1,924B) compressed to the split invariants (never drop;
D<N>.k shape; Include/Defer/Cut/Hold; question_id scheme with the never-ask
refusal) + the full-rule pointer. Both doc pointers now interpolate the
absolute install root (Codex outside-voice #7 convention) instead of the bare
'in the gstack repo'. Failure-fallback, Format, and self-check sections are
byte-identical — all 14 MANDATORY always-loaded pins pass with zero test
edits.

* chore(gen): regenerate all skills + goldens — AUQ slim

Mechanical regen: −1.3KB per tier-2+ skill (ship 69.9KB, learn 32.5KB).

* chore(test): baseline + ratchet follow Phase 3 (OV9); OV8 evaluated — shrink floor stays

Branch-internal baseline recaptured; ratchet ceilings down again. OV8's
floor-retirement question, evaluated as planned after Phase 3: the 80% shrink
floor stays — it uniquely catches accidental body deletion in non-carved
skills BETWEEN ratchet recaptures, and the capture command has amortized the
fixture-refresh cost that motivated retiring it.

* feat(review): carve adversarial, plan-completion, and review-army into sections

The three resolver macros ship already carves as siblings now load on demand
for /review too: skeleton 100.2KB -> 55.0KB (-45%), union 93.4KB. Resolvers
stay the single source of truth (sections wrap the macros). Step 0/1, scope
drift, critical pass, confidence calibration, and fix-first stay always-loaded.
Fixtures and pins follow the moved content (codex-hardening wrapped-sites,
review-army E2E fixture builds skeleton+sections with an empty-fixture guard).

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

* feat(codex): carve the three mutually exclusive modes into sections

Review/Challenge/Consult mode bodies (34.7KB where at most one ever runs)
load on demand: skeleton 81.0KB -> 55.2KB, union 1.04x the monolith. The mode
dispatch, filesystem boundary, and a new always-loaded 'Synthesis
recommendation (REQUIRED) — all modes' block stay skeleton-side (the AUQ
per-skill pins pass unchanged); the plan-file report + exit gate render after
the last section pointer per the gateAfterStop pattern.

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

* feat(land-and-deploy): carve first-run validation, readiness gate, and merge/deploy into sections

The once-per-repo dry-run validation, the pre-merge readiness gate, and the
merge + deploy-strategy steps (37.8KB) load on demand: skeleton 91.1KB ->
55.7KB. Step 1.5 keeps its detection bash as the dispatch; the first-run
section's fingerprint-save block gained {{SLUG_EVAL}} so it is self-contained.
Zero content lost (line-coverage checked against HEAD).

* feat(ios): demote the four ios skills to preamble-tier 2 (Phase 5)

They never consume the tier-3 sections (repo-mode ownership, search-before-
building) but do fire AskUserQuestion, which tier >=2 provides — verified by
grep before the plan review. -2.2KB per skill. Render assertions pin the
demotion (tier-3 sections absent, AUQ format present).

* chore(guards): register wave-1 carves; monolith invariants retire; baselines + ratchet follow

CARVE_GUARDS gains review/codex/land-and-deploy (12 carved skills total);
their MONOLITH_INVARIANTS entries retire (invariants now generate from the
registry, cso precedent). Touchfiles: carve-section-loading covers the three
new carves; the codex + land-and-deploy LLM-judge dep lists widen to their
sections. Regen + goldens + branch-internal baseline + ratchet ceilings
recaptured (review 24,052 -> skeleton-based ceiling; union floors hold).

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

* test(gen-skill-docs): review render pins read the carved union

The review carve's readSkillUnion conversions (same pattern its neighbor
carved-skill pins already use).

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

* feat(autoplan): carve the four review phases + tasks aggregator into sections

Phase bodies (CEO/Design/Eng/DX consensus flows) and the Implementation Tasks
aggregator load on demand; Design and DX stay separate sections because each
is independently conditional on scope. Skeleton 83.7KB -> 58.7KB (-30%
always-loaded); the 6 decision principles, classification, sequencing, and
explicit skip-condition dispatch stay always-loaded. The chain E2E's
phase-complete markers now live only in sections, so its assertions double as
section-read proof (behavioral: external).

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

* feat(spec): carve the post-confirmation gate-and-file tail into one section

Phases 1-4 are the turn-1 conversational spine — carving them would force the
Read on the first user message for zero real savings. The mechanical tail
(4.5/4.5a/4.5b redaction gates + Phase 5 filing + TTHW telemetry) fires only
after draft confirmation: a genuine lazy boundary, kept as ONE section so the
gh-issue-create bash can never load without the fail-closed redaction gate
that precedes it. Skeleton 65.4KB -> 50.7KB; all ~85 phase-structure
invariants migrated location-aware plus a new carve-shape suite (56 tests).

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

* feat(setup-gbrain): carve the branch-exclusive install paths into sections

Brain-init (Paths 1/2/3/4 bodies), engine remediation, transcript gate, and
CLAUDE.md persist load on demand — at most one install route ever runs.
Skeleton 75.3KB -> 57.0KB; the Step 1 detect and Step 2 path dispatch stay
always-loaded. New buildSetupGbrainFixture helper gives the periodic E2Es
extract-don't-copy fixtures with a non-empty guard; the voyage-code-3 gate
counts scan the tmpl union (the third init site lives in engine-remediation).

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

* chore(guards): register wave-2 carves (15 carved skills); autoplan monolith retires; baselines follow

CARVE_GUARDS gains autoplan (behavioral: external via the chain eval), spec,
and setup-gbrain; autoplan's MONOLITH_INVARIANTS entry retires. Touchfiles:
setup-gbrain periodic dep lists gain the section tmpls + fixture helper; the
stale-brain-refs scan covers setup-gbrain/sections. Regen + goldens + branch
baseline + ratchet recaptured.

* feat(retro): absorb inline git/awk metrics into bin/gstack-retro-metrics + carve report format

RETRO_METRICS_PROTO: 1 contract, local git reads only (fetch stays in the
skill prose), degraded path documented in the skeleton.

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

* test: register wave-3 carves (qa, browse, retro) — guards, touchfiles, pins, baselines

CARVE_GUARDS gains the three entries; qa's monolith invariant retires.
auq-format carve-safety now keys on the skeleton+sections union shipping
the AUQ block (first tier-1 carve: browse never renders it by design).
Baselines: parity v1.69.1.0 at 18 sectioned skills; ratchet recaptured.

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

* fix(test): drop stale generate-lake-intro import (generator deleted in the emission-layer move)

Sol scope discipline stays pinned via the model overlay + completeness
section; the lake intro is now a single script-emitted blurb.

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

* feat(office-hours): carve Phase 2A/2B into mode-exclusive sections (81→67KB skeleton)

A session runs exactly one mode, so a builder session never loads the
13KB startup diagnostic. Mode mapping and the vibe-shift upgrade rule
stay in the skeleton.

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

* feat(design): carve UX doctrine + Pretext patterns into read-on-demand sections

design-html 57→49KB, design-shotgun 53→50KB. Sections wrap
{{UX_PRINCIPLES}} so scripts/resolvers/design.ts stays the source of
truth; the pretext-patterns STOP sits at the top of Step 3 so the read
provably precedes the Write.

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

* test: register wave-4 carves (office-hours ext, design-html, design-shotgun) — 20 carved skills

Both design entries carry requiredReads + loading-eval scenarios (D3A
condition). office-hours phase sections are mode-exclusive, so only the
always-reached design/handoff section is a deterministic requiredRead.
Baselines and ratchet recaptured.

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

* docs: trim CLAUDE.md 66.4→44.9KB — verbatim moves to docs/, pointers stay inline

Moved: browser/sidebar/server internals, CHANGELOG release-summary format
spec, project tree, hermetic-E2E detail, slop-scan reference, OpenClaw
publishing. Kept inline: every hard behavioral rule (dist/ ban, redaction
scan-at-sink, egress receipts, bisect commits, eval detach, CHANGELOG
entry rules), the machine-managed GBrain block (byte-identical), and the
'## Deploying to the active skill' header with gbrain-refresh in range
(pinned by test/gbrain-refresh-install-render.test.ts). No voice rewrites.

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

* fix(test): seed onboarding markers into the hermetic child GSTACK_HOME

EOV7 made bin/gstack-skill-start honor GSTACK_HOME, so the operator-HOME
seeding in e2e-helpers.ts no longer reaches hermetic children — the
emission layer fired lake-intro/telemetry prompts that burned turns and
stalled PTY tests waiting on an answer (observed: plan-mode-no-op derailed
by the telemetry question). Onboarding-specific tests pin their own
GSTACK_HOME per-test, which merges over this seed.

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

* test: raise carve-section-loading wall clock to 480s SDK / 540s bun

The heavy full-workflow scenarios satisfy their required section reads
inside 60s but need 300-450s to finish the report on slower sandboxes;
the 300s default read as a loading failure when the carve invariant held
(traces: plan-eng-review read its section at 8s, office-hours all three
at 24s, design-html both at 50s — all timed out mid-report).

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

* fix(security): harden the skill-start trust boundary — review-army findings

Session ID gains a urandom suffix (block binding unforgeable by reflected
content); _sanitize also neutralizes spoofed SESSION_ID: lines; branch
names are charset-clamped before JSON embedding (skill-start + skill-end);
.brain-last-push reads first line only with a charset clamp; the artifacts
URL echo routes through _sanitize; the privacy consent gate fires in
interactive sessions only (spawned auto-choose could accept consent no
human gave — emission order is not a safety property); the daily pull gets
non-interactive + slow-network git guards and stamps only when the
receipted path ran; ~/.claude.json gets a grep pre-filter before the jq
parse.

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

* fix(resolvers): question-log session_id becomes a substitution placeholder + stale-comment sweep

The question-log block bound $_SESSION_ID, a shell variable the
consolidated fence never sets — hook-less hosts logged empty session_id,
breaking /plan-tune per-session grouping. It now uses the same
substitute-from-the-skill-start-echoes contract as the telemetry block.
Also: retired the pre-Phase-2 stop-gate docstring, repointed the
gbrain-local-status cross-reference at the script's inline jq, dropped an
orphaned section comment, documented retro-metrics' suffix-only census.

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

* test: hermetic update-check, onboarding gate sequencing, seeding parity

The contract test's child did a live git ls-remote + curl to github.com on
every bun run test (update_check config now gates it off); the headless
test gets a fresh GSTACK_HOME so the suppression is actually exercised; a
new OV6 test drives the script three times to pin ack-at-emit and gate
sequencing; hermetic seeding covers the config-keyed privacy gate; the
EVALS_HERMETIC=0 debug seeding reaches marker parity.

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

* test(ci): demote the preamble A/B to periodic (OV7) and add it to the periodic matrix

Post-Phase-3 demotion per the plan; the eval needs fetch-depth 0 (it git
shows a pre-Phase-1 sha), which only the periodic workflow provides — and
a static matrix entry so it can't silently never run.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v1.70.0.0)

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

* docs: update project documentation for v1.70.0.0

ARCHITECTURE.md: the preamble section now describes the v1.70 runtime —
the rendered {{PREAMBLE}} block invokes bin/gstack-skill-start and reads
STATUS lines, gstack-skill-end logs telemetry, and one-time onboarding
text arrives as gated GSTACK_INSTRUCTION blocks instead of riding in
every render.

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

* docs: doc-review fixes — repair moved-file links, drop unbacked session-count claim

docs/BROWSER_INTERNALS.md: the two ARCHITECTURE.md anchor links broke when
the section moved from repo-root CLAUDE.md into docs/ — now ../ARCHITECTURE.md.
ARCHITECTURE.md: the preamble's session-tracking item claimed an active-session
count and an "ELI16 mode" that no shipped code implements (the count
computation was deleted with the inline preamble); describe the real
touch-and-prune behavior instead.

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

* docs(changelog): correct numeric claims against measured counts

50 of 62 installed skills dropped (fixture/alias entries have no preamble);
11 new carves + a deeper office-hours carve = 9→20; test counts match the
files (13 / 11 / 3 / 7).

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

* docs: repoint the preamble-runtime version reference after the queue rebump (v1.71.0.0)

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

* test(e2e-design): widen the Aesthetic synonym set — vocabulary variance, not a regression

Both attempts in run 33090283032 produced judge-praised DESIGN.md files
phrased as 'design principles'/'design language' without any of the four
original literals; inputs were identical to the prior passing run
32899975845 (design-consultation untouched by the intervening merge).

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

* fix(test): stage design-consultation's sections/ into the E2E fixture

The skill has been carved since v1.57.0.0 — the DESIGN.md structure
prescription (the AESTHETIC proposal template) lives in
sections/proposal-and-preview.md behind a STOP-read. The fixture only
copied SKILL.md, so the agent improvised structure from the skeleton and
the section-synonym check has been a coin flip since the carve (CI run
33090283032 trace shows 'no sections dir'; the local eval store has the
same failure on 2026-08-25 while that day's CI run passed on lucky
vocabulary).

Garry TanandClaude Opus 4.8 4dfdb7cdc2 v1.57.2.0 feat: AskUserQuestion prose fallback when the tool fails at runtime (#1908)
* feat(auq): add gstack-session-kind + echo SESSION_KIND in preamble

Classifies the session as spawned | headless | interactive from env markers
(OPENCLAW_SESSION / GSTACK_HEADLESS / CONDUCTOR_* / CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT / CI),
defaulting to interactive. Echoed once at skill start alongside BRANCH/REPO_MODE
so the AskUserQuestion-failure fallback can branch without a shell-out at failure
time. Degrade-safe: empty/error => interactive.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(auq): prose fallback when AskUserQuestion fails (interactive sessions)

On a genuine AUQ failure (tool absent, or present-but-erroring like Conductor's
flaky MCP returning '[Tool result missing due to internal error]'): retry once,
then branch on SESSION_KIND — spawned auto-chooses, headless BLOCKs, interactive
renders a prose decision brief the user answers by typing a letter.

The prose fallback MUST surface the triad: a clear ELI10 of the issue, a
per-choice Completeness score, and a recommendation+why (one paragraph per
choice). Carves out the [plan-tune auto-decide] denial as NOT a failure, and
qualifies the former 'tool_use, not prose' assertions so the rule isn't
self-contradicting. Tests pin the triad, the SESSION_KIND branch, the OV2
collision guard, the always-loaded guarantee, and a cross-file invariant on the
auto-decide prefix.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(auq): default GSTACK_HEADLESS=1 in eval/E2E runners

Headless harness runs classify as headless (BLOCK on AUQ failure rather than
emit a prose question no one reads). SDK runner uses ambient mutation, not the
Options.env object, to avoid breaking the SDK auth pipeline. Interactive-path
suites opt out by overriding the env per-run.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(auq): defensive PostToolUse error-fallback hook (OV3:B)

When an AskUserQuestion call returns an error/missing result, this hook injects
additionalContext reminding the model to run the prose fallback for the current
SESSION_KIND. It does not render prose itself — it guarantees the reminder fires
at the moment of failure instead of relying on the model recalling SESSION_KIND.

Inert on success and inert if the platform never invokes PostToolUse on tool
errors (unverified — could not force the Conductor MCP error in a harness; see
the spike doc). The prompt-level fallback covers the case regardless. Decision
logic is unit-tested deterministically; registered in setup beside the existing
AUQ hooks.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* chore(auq): regenerate SKILL.md for all hosts + refresh ship goldens

Regenerated from the resolver changes (gen:skill-docs --host all). Refreshes the
byte-exact ship golden fixtures (claude/codex/factory). Spec prose tightened so
the cross-cutting preamble addition stays under the 5% per-skill parity ceiling
(investigate 4.8%) — guard unchanged.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(test): kebab testNames for section-loading E2Es to match TOUCHFILES keys

The two section-loading E2E tests used display-form testNames ('/ship
section-loading', '/plan-ceo-review section-loading') while every other E2E
testName and their E2E_TOUCHFILES keys are kebab. The completeness gate does an
exact `name in E2E_TOUCHFILES` check, so it failed (pre-existing on main); diff-
based selection also couldn't match them. Align to ship-section-loading /
plan-ceo-section-loading.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(test): make external-host freshness checks deterministic

The parameterized host smoke + --host all freshness tests assumed an external
`gen:skill-docs --host all` had run first (it never does in `bun test`), so which
host reported STALE varied by sibling-test timing — flaky. Regenerate the
gitignored external host dirs in a beforeAll so the --dry-run check is
deterministic. It still catches non-deterministic generation (the real bug class
for regenerated outputs); the tracked-claude freshness test runs earlier and is
unaffected.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(parity): headroom for AUQ cross-cutting addition on carved document-release

Merging main brought the carve of document-release (smaller skeleton); the AUQ
prose-fallback adds ~2KB to every skill's always-loaded preamble, landing
document-release at ~5.9% over the pre-carve v1.53.0.0 baseline. Add a per-carve
maxSizeRatio override (CARVE_GUARDS single source of truth) and bump only this
skill to 1.08. All other skills keep the strict 1.05 ceiling.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(auq): harden error-fallback hook + harness per adversarial review

Codex pre-landing review found three real issues:
- The PostToolUse fallback hook shared source 'plan-tune-cathedral' with the
  question-log hook (same event+matcher); gstack-settings-hook replaces the entry,
  so it would have clobbered plan-tune capture. Give it its own 'auq-error-fallback'
  source (separate entry, both run); ALREADY_INSTALLED now requires both sources.
- isErrorResponse triggered on any string containing 'internal error'/'is_error',
  so a real answer or a {"is_error": false} payload could fire the fallback after a
  successful question. Narrow it to the missing-result sentinel + boolean is_error.
- The SDK runner mutated process.env.GSTACK_HEADLESS process-wide (leaked headless
  into later tests). Removed; GSTACK_HEADLESS=1 now lives in the eval package.json
  scripts, scoped to the invocation and inherited by the SDK child.

Carve the largest skill (138,838 B) into a skeleton + one on-demand
section, the documented next Phase B target after /ship (v2_PLAN.md:216).

- sections/review-sections.md(.tmpl): the 11-section deep review, codex/
  outside-voice rules, how-to-ask, Required Outputs, registries, Completion
  Summary, Review Log, REVIEW_DASHBOARD, PLAN_FILE_REVIEW_REPORT, Next Steps,
  docs/designs promotion, Formatting Rules, and the Mode Quick Reference.
- sections/manifest.json: passive registry (CM2), one entry.
- SKILL.md.tmpl: {{SECTION_INDEX}} after the system audit, a single
  {{SECTION:review-sections}} STOP-Read after Step 0 mode selection, and a
  Section self-check. All of Step 0 (the scope/mode conversation) stays in
  the always-loaded skeleton; only EXIT_PLAN_MODE_GATE follows the section.

Measured: always-loaded skeleton 138,838 -> 80,731 B (-42%, ~14.4K tokens
off every invocation). Union (skeleton + section) 139,110 B, behavior held.

Boundary honors Codex P1: nothing review-governing (formatting rules, mode
reference, how-to-ask, required outputs) sits in the skeleton below the
STOP. Housekeeping resolvers ride in the section, matching the ship
precedent (adversarial.md carries LEARNINGS_LOG + GBRAIN_SAVE_RESULTS).

Tests (atomic with the carve — skill-docs.yml gates gen:skill-docs
freshness on every push, so source + regen + tests must land together):
- parity-harness: plan-ceo flipped to sectioned, maxSkeletonBytes 90_000
  (measured 80,731 + headroom); content/minBytes run against the union.
- skill-size-budget: plan-ceo-review added to SECTIONS_EXTRACTED.
- section-manifest-consistency: generalized to discover every carved skill,
  vars computed per-skill-case (Codex P2).
- skill-ceo-section-ordering (new, gate): per-PR static guard — STOP after
  Step 0, review body absent from skeleton, report writer in the section,
  nothing review-governing below the STOP.
- skill-e2e-plan-ceo-review-section-loading (new, periodic): refreshes the
  installed skill first (Codex P1), drives full Step 0, asserts the section
  is Read before the report.
- gen-skill-docs + skill-validation: read the skeleton+sections union for
  carved skills so relocated prose still counts.
- touchfiles: plan-ceo-section-loading registered (periodic).

* chore: bump VERSION + CHANGELOG for plan-ceo-review carve (v1.56.0.0)

MINOR: carves the largest skill into skeleton + on-demand section,
dropping plan-ceo-review's always-loaded cost 42% (138,838 -> 80,731 B,
~14.4K tokens off every invocation). User-facing release notes lead with
the measured token win.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(todos): file P3 follow-up — carve the shared {{PREAMBLE}} reference blocks

Surfaced by /plan-eng-review on the plan-ceo-review carve: per-skill section
carves stay modest because the ~40-50KB shared preamble dominates the
always-loaded surface. A single preamble-reference carve would help every
tier->=2 skill at once. Records the why, the cold-vs-hot split to measure,
and the guards it needs. Not implemented this PR.

* test(auq): Layer 0 — guarantee AUQ format spec is always-loaded

Deterministic, free, per-PR keystone for the token-reduction era. For every
interactive (tier>=2) skill, asserts the full AskUserQuestion decision-brief
format (ELI10/Recommendation/Pros-cons/checks/Net/(recommended)/Stakes/
self-check) lives in the always-loaded SKILL.md skeleton, NOT only in an
on-demand section. Plus a roster guard (a carve can't silently drop the block)
and per-skill rule survival in the skeleton+sections union. 51 cases + a
negative control. Fails the instant a future carve strands AUQ-governing text
where it won't be loaded when a question fires.

* test(auq): SDK capture engine + verbose-vs-carved no-degradation A/B

Adds the reusable SDK $OUT_FILE capture engine (auq-sdk-capture.ts): drives a
skill to its AUQ and captures the verbatim text the model GENERATES, cleanly
(real-PTY mangles plan-mode AUQs via cursor escapes). Pins the skill to an
absolute path with Read/Write-only tools so the agent can't wander to the
global install. gradeAuqRecommendation normalizes a non-"because" connective
before grading so substantive reasons aren't false-flagged (without touching
the pinned shared judge).

The A/B drives the same prompt through the carved 80KB skeleton and the
pre-carve 137KB monolith and fails if carved scores worse. Result: both 7/7
format, substance 5 — proven no degradation, transcript-verified each side read
its own planted SKILL.md. Periodic tier.

* test(auq): consistency — same trigger N runs, stable format + substance

Drives the carved /plan-ceo-review AUQ N=3 times and fails if any format
element appears in one run but not another, or substance craters. Targets the
"fine one run, broken the next" failure class a single snapshot can't see.
Result: 3/3 stable, 7/7 + substance 5 every run. Periodic tier.

* test(auq): behavioral matrix across AUQ-heavy skills

Data-driven test that drives each AUQ-heavy skill (plan-eng/design/devex,
office-hours, cso, spec, design-consultation) to its first AskUserQuestion and
grades it to the plan-ceo bar: 7/7 decision-brief format + recommendation
substance >=4. One case per skill (isolated failures), env-subsettable via
AUQ_MATRIX_ONLY. Browser/design-binary skills are intentionally excluded
(comparison boards, not format-AUQs; Layer 0 covers their spec). All targeted
skills pass 7/7 with substance 4-5. Periodic tier.

* test(codex): live recommendation-substance grade for /codex

Closes the gap where /codex's synthesis recommendation was only checked
statically (template grep) and via fixtures. Drives the real /codex skill over
a flawed diff and grades the emitted "Recommendation: ... because ..." line
with judgeRecommendation (present/commits/has_because/substance>=4). The named
weak spot holds up: substance 5. Periodic tier.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(auq): deterministic trigger for format-compliance gate

A bare /plan-ceo-review against a repo whose work is already implemented makes
the model improvise an off-script "what should I review?" scope question that
skips the decision-brief format, which the gate test then times out waiting for.
Hand it a concrete plan to review (FORCING_FLOOR_CEO) so it reaches the real
Step 0 mode-selection AUQ that is the intended format check.

* refactor(office-hours): carve Phase 5+6 into on-demand section

Third Phase B carve (v2_PLAN.md:216, after ship and plan-ceo-review). Moves
Phase 5 (Design Doc templates) + Phase 6 (tiered relationship handoff) — the
session's output + closing tail, only reached after the conversation and
alternatives are done — into sections/design-and-handoff.md, behind a single
STOP-Read after Phase 4.5. The live conversation (Phases 1-4.5) and the
always-run Important Rules stay in the always-loaded skeleton.

Measured: always-loaded skeleton 118,280 -> 88,975 B (-24.8%). Union preserved.
The carved AUQ is identical to pre-carve (matrix: 7/7 format, substance 5),
and Layer 0 confirms the AUQ format spec stays in the skeleton — the AUQ
paranoid suite de-risked this carve end to end.

Atomic with tests + regen (skill-docs.yml gates gen:skill-docs freshness on
every push, so source + regen + tests land together; --host all regenerates
the inlined non-Claude variants):
- sections/manifest.json: passive registry, one entry.
- parity-harness: office-hours flipped to sectioned, maxSkeletonBytes 96_000
  (measured 88,975 + headroom); content/minBytes run against the union.
- skill-size-budget: office-hours added to SECTIONS_EXTRACTED.
- gen-skill-docs + skill-validation: read the skeleton+sections union for
  office-hours so relocated Phase 5/6 prose still counts.

* refactor(preamble): carve CJK-escaping manual to on-demand doc

The AskUserQuestion format block is inlined into every interactive skill (~33).
It carried the full multi-paragraph non-ASCII/CJK escaping manual inline, but
that rationale only matters when a question contains CJK text and the operative
rule already lives in the always-loaded self-check. Moved the justification to
docs/askuserquestion-cjk.md (read on demand); kept the rule + a pointer.

Corpus: Claude-host SKILL.md total 3,087,499 -> 3,057,975 B (-29,524 B, ~900 B
x ~33 skills). Layer 0 still passes — the core decision-brief format stays
always-loaded; only the rare CJK rationale moved. Atomic with the all-host
regen (skill-docs.yml freshness gate). VERSION + package.json -> 1.58.0.0.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(plan-eng-review): carve review body into on-demand section

Fourth Phase B carve (v2_PLAN.md:220). Moves the 4-section review (Architecture,
Code Quality, Tests, Performance), outside voice, required outputs, and review
report — everything after Step 0 scope — into sections/review-sections.md behind
a single STOP-Read. Step 0 (scope challenge) and EXIT_PLAN_MODE_GATE stay in the
always-loaded skeleton.

Measured: skeleton 106,984 -> 54,892 B (-48.7%). Union preserved. Atomic with
tests + all-host regen (freshness gate): parity flipped to sectioned
(maxSkeletonBytes 62K), plan-eng-review added to SECTIONS_EXTRACTED, gen-skill-docs
reads the union for relocated review/TEST_COVERAGE/dashboard prose. Layer 0 green.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(plan-design-review): carve review body into on-demand section

Fifth Phase B carve (v2_PLAN.md:220, bundled with plan-eng). Moves the 7 design
passes, required outputs, and review report — everything after Step 0 scope and
the mockup/rating phase — into sections/review-sections.md behind a STOP-Read.
Step 0, Step 0.5 mockups, the rating method, and EXIT_PLAN_MODE_GATE stay in the
always-loaded skeleton.

Measured: skeleton 112,057 -> 76,024 B (-32.2%). Union preserved. Atomic with
tests + all-host regen: parity sectioned (maxSkeletonBytes 82K), added to
SECTIONS_EXTRACTED, gen-skill-docs reads the union. Layer 0 green.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(plan-devex-review): carve review body into on-demand section

Sixth Phase B carve. Moves the 8 DX passes, required outputs, and review report
— everything after the Step 0 DX investigation — into sections/review-sections.md
behind a STOP-Read. All of Step 0 (persona, empathy, benchmark, journey trace,
roleplay) + the rating method + EXIT_PLAN_MODE_GATE stay always-loaded.

Measured: skeleton 110,621 -> 69,658 B (-37%). Union preserved. Atomic with
tests + all-host regen: added to SECTIONS_EXTRACTED, gen-skill-docs reads the
union. Layer 0 green. (No parity invariant entry for plan-devex-review.)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: refresh ship golden baselines + gbrain-detection union after carves

Two follow-ups the carve commits should have carried (caught by the full suite,
missed by targeted subsets):
- ship golden baselines (claude/codex/factory) regenerated: the preamble CJK
  trim (v1.58) changed ship's always-loaded AskUserQuestion block.
- gbrain-detection-override probes the office-hours skeleton+section union:
  GBRAIN_SAVE_RESULTS moved into sections/design-and-handoff.md when office-hours
  was carved, so the detection assertions now check both files.

Full `bun test` green.

* test(auq): grade format-compliance gate from SDK capture, not the TUI

The real-PTY version grepped the stripAnsi'd interactive AUQ picker. Verified
directly that this cannot work: plan-mode AUQs render as a cursor picker whose
cursor-positioning escapes stripAnsi can't flatten — the picker renders fine for
a human (cursorSeen=45) but the flattened text drops ELI10:/(recommended) and
parseNumberedOptions returns 0. The test was grading a lossy projection and
failed by construction.

Rewritten to drive /plan-ceo-review via the SDK $OUT_FILE capture (the agent
writes the verbatim question it would have shown — clean text, no rendering
loss) and grade 7/7 format + kind-note + recommendation substance >=4. Same
property, reliable, environment-independent; shares the engine with the periodic
A/B and matrix evals. Result: 7/7 format, substance 5. Touchfiles key renamed
ask-user-question-format-pty -> auq-format-gate (no longer a PTY test).

* test: fix carve-broken CI evals (union reads + section fixtures)

Two CI eval jobs failed on the carved plan-* skills because they read content
that moved into sections/:

- llm-judge (skill-llm-eval): runWorkflowJudge sliced SKILL.md between markers
  like "## Review Sections" / "## CRITICAL RULE" that now live in
  sections/review-sections.md. The markers vanished from the skeleton, so the
  judge scored empty/wrong content. Fix: read the skeleton+sections union.
  Verified: plan-ceo modes / plan-eng sections / plan-design passes all PASS
  (25/25).

- e2e-plan (skill-e2e-plan): setupPlanDir copied only <skill>/SKILL.md into the
  fixture, not sections/. The carved skill's STOP pointed at a section file that
  was absent, so the model improvised a compressed report table instead of the
  canonical "| Review | Trigger | Why | Runs | Status | Findings |". Fix: copy
  sections/ alongside SKILL.md in all 6 setup sites. Verified: report test PASS,
  canonical table emitted.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: copy carved sections into all e2e fixtures (prevent more carve-blind CI fails)

Proactive sweep beyond the two CI logs: every e2e test that copies a carved
skill's SKILL.md into a temp fixture must also copy its sections/, or the
model hits a STOP pointing at a missing section file and improvises/degrades.

- skill-e2e.test.ts: plan-ceo/plan-eng/plan-design/office-hours copies across
  planDir/reviewDir/ohDir/benefitsDir dests now copy sections/.
- skill-e2e-plan.test.ts: the office-hours copy + the 4-skill codex-offering
  loop now copy sections/.
- skill-e2e-design.test.ts: plan-design-review copy now copies sections/.
- skill-e2e-office-hours.test.ts: both office-hours copies now copy sections/.
- skill-e2e-office-hours-brain-writeback.test.ts: GBRAIN_SAVE_RESULTS moved into
  the section, so check the regenerated skeleton+section UNION for the gbrain put
  block, ship both into the workdir, and restore both (the section regen was also
  leaking into the working tree — finally now restores it).

ship copies (single-file Step-0 slices) and review/retro (not carved) untouched.

* test: migrate section-loading E2E to lossless SDK tool-stream detection

The /ship and /plan-ceo-review section-loading tests drove a real PTY and
scraped the ANSI screen buffer for sections/<file>.md paths. That silently
saw nothing in a Conductor PTY (cursor-positioned tool renders and an
unanswered Step 0 question loop both defeat the regex), so both reported
read: [] even when the agent did the work.

They now run the skill through claude -p (the same SDK path the AUQ matrix
uses) and detect section reads from the tool-use stream — Read calls whose
file_path contains sections/<file>.md — with no rendering layer to mangle.
The run is also hermetic: the freshly-generated worktree skeleton + sections
are copied into a throwaway fixture with the absolute path pinned, so the
test validates this branch's carve without mutating the user's ~/.claude
install.

Validated EVALS_TIER=periodic: both pass (plan-ceo Reads review-sections.md;
ship Reads review-army.md + changelog.md), ~6.5 min for both vs ~23 min
combined on the old PTY path where both were failing.

* chore: consolidate branch to v1.56.0.0 (single MINOR above main)

The branch bumped VERSION several times during development (1.56 → 1.57 →
1.58 → 1.59), but none of those landed on main (main is at 1.55.1.0). Per
the "never orphan branch-internal versions" discipline, collapse all four
into a single 1.56.0.0 entry — one MINOR release covering the whole branch:
five skills carved (plan-ceo, office-hours, plan-eng, plan-design,
plan-devex), the shared AskUserQuestion preamble CJK trim, and the paranoid
AUQ no-degradation test suite + lossless section-loading tests.

VERSION and package.json set to 1.56.0.0; main's 1.55.1.0 entry preserved
below the consolidated entry. No SKILL.md drift (VERSION is not embedded in
generated bodies).
