Garry Tan df89475b17 v1.91.11.0 refactor: one state-root rule, browse route table, shared shard engine, PTY harness split, MECE review resolvers (#3002)
* refactor(resolvers): split review.ts into MECE resolver modules (pure move)

Move every function from scripts/resolvers/review.ts, unchanged, into:
- review-dashboard.ts: review dashboard, plan-file review report
- plan-gates.ts: approval check, exit-plan-mode gate, plan-file discovery,
  plan-completion audit/gate (ship + review), plan verification exec
- spec-review.ts: both spec review loops, benefits-from, anti-shortcut clause
- outside-voice-steps.ts: Codex second opinion, adversarial step, Codex plan
  review, Codex doc review, disabled-outside record
- review-scope.ts: scope drift, cross-review dedup, shared-code reuse

review.ts is deleted; index.ts imports the new modules. gen-skill-docs
output is byte-identical for every host (--host all). Test imports and
source-path references are re-pointed; the two source-text report/gate
tests in gen-skill-docs.test.ts become behavioral renders across every
consuming skill and host. All 46 touchfile entries that named review.ts
now name all five modules, guarded by a recorded selection golden.

* test(browse): black-box auth matrix for every server route and both surfaces

Drives buildFetchHandler fetchLocal/fetchTunnel with no token, wrong token,
root token, scoped token and the SSE cookie for all 33 routes, plus unmatched
paths and wrong methods. Denials assert today's exact status, body and content
type; allowed credentials assert the handler was reached. Written against the
unchanged if-chain server so the W3 route-table refactor must keep it green.

* refactor(shard-engine): move scripts/test-strict-output.ts to scripts/lib/shard-engine.ts

The shared shard engine grows from the existing strict-output module
(runShardChild, killProcessGroup, signal forwarding, strict classifier).
scripts/test-strict-output.ts stays as a re-export so existing importers,
mock.module paths and the strict-output/run-shard-child tests are unchanged.
The engine inherits the global touchfile entry; the free runner's CLI-routing
fixture copies the new module.

* refactor(resolvers): decompose the three >150-line review resolvers (output-neutral)

Split generateAdversarialStep, generateCodexPlanReview and
generatePlanCompletionAuditInner into per-section helpers whose template
literals are copied verbatim, so every function in the new modules is at
or under 150 lines. gen-skill-docs output is byte-identical for every host
(--host all, compared against 96764e80 with a fixed --link-root).

* refactor(resolvers): one outside-voice failure policy (deliberate prose unification)

outsideVoiceFailurePolicy(ctx, opts) in outside-voice.ts now renders the
auth / timeout / empty-response bullets for all four call sites that
hand-typed them (Codex second opinion, adversarial step, Codex plan
review, design outside voices). Options are explicit per site
(timeoutMinutes, onTimeout, stderrOnEmpty, fallback, escape) with no
defaults.

Deliberate generated-prose changes (every host):
- office-hours: 'Fall back to <native> subagent.' becomes
  'Fall back to the <native> subagent below.'
- plan-devex-review: the plain 'Auth failure (stderr contains ...)'
  bullets become the canonical bold bullets; auth also triggers on
  'API key'; 'auth failed' becomes 'authentication failed'.
- review/ship adversarial: 'exceeded 9 minutes and was terminated'
  becomes 'timed out after 9 minutes and was terminated'; the timeout
  is still MISSING COVERAGE.
- design outside voices: unchanged.

Adds ratchet (d) (test/outside-voice-failure-policy.test.ts) with a
reasoned allowlist for /codex's own CLI errors, the MISSING COVERAGE
retention test, refreshed codex/factory ship goldens, and outside-voice.ts
in every touchfile entry of review.ts and design.ts (selection golden
extended).

* test(pty): fake PTY session driver with an injectable clock through the runner launch seam

The three plan-skill runners take an optional PtyDriver (launch, now,
monotonic, sleep); omitted, they use the real launcher and clocks exactly as
before. test/helpers/pty/fake-session.ts feeds scripted frames through that
seam, and claude-pty-runner.runners.unit.test.ts runs observation, counting
and floor for success, deadline timeout, permission prompt and plan-ready
outcomes with no CLI or real timers. These cases must stay green unchanged
through the W4 split and the runPtySession extraction.

Touchfiles: every entry that lists claude-pty-runner.ts or pty-screen.ts now
also lists test/helpers/pty/**.

* refactor(shard-engine): run both lanes on the shared engine; lane policy injected

Engine (scripts/lib/shard-engine.ts) gains the W2 primitives: per-shard
tmp/Chromium sandbox + async cleanup backstop, log-path allocation and
full-stream log capture, one duration-seed reader/writer with a lane
predicate, LanePolicy (seed predicate + zero-execution verdict),
strictShardStatus, and the shared CLI flag loop. runShardChild takes an
optional companion (signal/settle) and waits a bounded 250ms to reap a
wall-killed child.

Free lane stops spawning shards itself: runFreeShard uses runShardChild
with trackShardBrowser as the companion (win32 path unchanged: no process
group, no negative-pid kill). Its sync state-dir removal stays lane policy.
Paid lane uses the sandbox, log, seed, verdict and flag primitives; the
hollow-shard guard applies PAID_LANE_POLICY. Lane outcomes are unchanged
(free keeps >= 0 seeds and file-count zero-exec rule; paid keeps > 0 seeds,
warning under selection and passed-empty under EVALS_ALL).

paid-free-boundary's closure assertion now names the engine module, where
the strict classifier lives.

* test(shard-engine): engine unit tests, fixture-corpus equivalence, per-lane CLI parity

- test/shard-engine.test.ts: failing/unhandled/module-load output fails both
  lanes, per-lane zero-execution and seed rules, whole-group kill on a wall
  timeout (both lanes), mocked-win32 path with no negative-pid kill,
  companion settle order, log capture, sandbox isolation, flag loop.
- test/shard-engine-equivalence.test.ts + test/fixtures/shard-equivalence:
  seven outcome fixtures plus one real shard, run through both lanes and
  compared with classifications recorded from the base runners (96764e80).
- test/shard-cli-parity.test.ts + test/fixtures/shard-cli-parity: flag set,
  defaults, validation errors and the Unknown argument error per lane match
  the base runners.

* refactor(shard-engine): decompose runFreeShard and runPaidShard to <= 150 lines

Output-neutral extraction under the fixture-corpus equivalence and runner
tests: captureFreeStream, explainFreeVerdict and logFreeRecovery (free);
paidShardCommand, settleShardSpool, settleBootstrapRetention and
printLogTail (paid). The bootstrap scope-creation block that
bootstrap-retention.test.ts evaluates stays verbatim.

* refactor(pty): split claude-pty-runner.ts into test/helpers/pty/* behind a barrel

Pure move: every line of the former 5,047-line runner lands verbatim in one
module (four private helpers gain `export` for cross-module use):
binary, screen (absorbs test/helpers/pty-screen.ts, which now re-exports it),
launch, session (PtyDriver), judge, classify, auq, plan-native, boundaries,
runners/{observation,counting,floor}. claude-pty-runner.ts re-exports the
original public surface by name; pty/ modules import siblings directly.

Tests that read the runner's source text:
- rewritten as behavioral: the unit test's model-pin tripwire (fake CLI argv:
  fallback chain, --model before extraArgs, hermetic --strict-mcp-config),
  pty-skill-seeding-wiring (runners through the fake driver; launcher through
  a fake CLI reporting CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR). The "three wrappers forward model"
  grep is replaced by the runners' fake-driver launch assertions.
- pty-screen-session / pty-screen-supervision: stop copying runner source;
  they mock.module the real pty/screen.ts (and the fixture cleanup) instead.
- re-pointed to the owning module (they execute a sliced runner body with
  injected boundaries; no seam exists for those boundaries yet):
  eng-seeded-completion-ai, plan-floor-permission, plan-create-prepublication,
  plan-count-completion; hermetic-wiring's source guard now reads pty/launch.ts
  and scans every pty/ module for raw process.env spreads.
- plan-count-timeout and pty-output-wake mock the viewport at pty/screen.ts.

* test(ratchet-c): enforcing module/function size ratchet and moved-code touchfile coverage

Ratchet (c) ships enforcing: test/helpers/module-size.ts counts file and
top-level function lengths by brace matching over masked source (strings,
comments, regex literals and template text masked; ${} expressions kept),
covering function declarations, arrow functions assigned to consts and
route-table handler properties, with no parser dependency. Its self-test
uses template literals and code-fence braces copied from
scripts/resolvers/review.ts and design.ts. test/fixtures/module-size-ratchet.json
binds scripts/lib/shard-engine.ts (<= 800 lines, <= 150 per function) and
records the residual runner sizes (free 2352, paid 1921) as non-growth caps;
allowlist entries are keyed on file plus matched text and need a reason.
Failure output lists file:line, the rule, Fix: and the allowlist path.

touchfiles.test.ts gains the moved-code superset check over
test/fixtures/touchfile-move-goldens/ (W2 golden recorded at 96764e80:
test-strict-output.ts and test-paid-shards.ts global, test-free-shards.ts none).

* refactor(browse): declared route table replaces the buildFetchHandler if-chain

The ~1,300-line if-chain in buildFetchHandler becomes a route table:
each entry declares method, path, auth kind and surfaces, and one auth
gate in browse/src/routes/table.ts returns the per-kind denial (root-bearer,
scoped, root-or-sse-cookie: 401 Unauthorized; root-token: 403 Root token
required; extension-origin: 403 Forbidden). Unmatched requests take the
declared fallthrough (root-bearer check, then plain-text 404). Handlers move
to browse/src/routes/{core,pairing,pty,tokens,tunnel,activity,commands,files,
inspector}.ts and receive a RouteContext with auth checks as functions
instead of closing over factory locals. Dispatch order is unchanged:
tunnel filter, beforeRoute overlay, gate, handler. TUNNEL_PATHS stays a
literal in server.ts.

Behavior-preserving: the black-box auth matrix from the previous commit
passes unchanged. /memory and /inspector/events are declared root-bearer
because the blanket check always ran before their SSE-cookie branch.

Source-text route tests are rewritten as behavioral tests through
buildFetchHandler or a route's real handler with a stub RouteContext
(browse/test/route-test-harness.ts). Checks with no runtime seam are
re-pointed to the route modules: Surface type, /inspector/events SSE
helper, sanitizeReplacer imports, /pty-inject-scan sidecar-client import,
and the ngrok config lookup and startTunnel wiring that stay in server.ts.

* test(browse): stubbed-handler auth matrix and route inventory for the route table

Every ROUTES entry runs through the real dispatcher and gate with stub
handlers on each declared surface and six credentials; denials assert the
exact status and body each auth kind returned at 96764e8, admitted
credentials assert the handler ran (with the gate's TokenInfo for scoped
routes). Also pins the reviewed route inventory (method, path, auth kind,
surfaces), that every entry declares auth and surfaces, that the table's
tunnel paths equal the TUNNEL_PATHS literal with GET /connect admitted, the
unmatched fallthrough, and that the root token is rejected on every tunnel
route through buildFetchHandler.

* test(browse): ratchet (b) keeps route dispatch inside the route table

Scans browse/src/server.ts and browse/src/routes/*.ts for pathname
comparisons; only the table matcher and the tunnel-surface filter are
allowed, listed with reasons in browse/test/fixtures/route-dispatch-allowlist.json
(keyed on file plus line text). Also checks every entry declares auth and
surfaces and that gstack registers no beforeRoute overlay itself. Self-tests
plant a violation and assert the file:line, Fix: and allowlist path in the
message, that a shifted line stays allowlisted, and that a reasonless entry
is rejected.

* test: touchfile superset check for modules moved out of browse/src/server.ts

Records the paid evals selected by touching browse/src/server.ts at 96764e80
(17 E2E, 1 LLM judge) and asserts every browse/src/routes/*.ts module selects
a superset. The test reads every golden in test/fixtures/moved-module-selection/
so other moved-code goldens can sit beside it.

* test(shard-engine): give non-timeout corpus fixtures CI headroom; keep the POSIX golden off the Windows lane

Only the wall-timeout fixture keeps a 3s wall; the rest get 60s so a loaded
host cannot turn a pass into a timeout. Base and branch runners still agree
on every classification under the new walls. The Windows exclusion entry
moves the free runner's ratchet (c) residual cap to 2356 lines.

* refactor(pty): one runPtySession loop drives observation, counting and floor

test/helpers/pty/session.ts owns launch -> start -> (poll -> tick)* ->
timeout and the failure contract the three runners each hand-rolled: the
run's own error wins over capture and close errors, close always runs, owned
fixture cleanup runs last (also when launch fails). Each runner now supplies a
PtySessionPlan: its boot/command step, poll cadence (2s observation/floor
sleep; counting's output wake + 250ms coalesce), tick policy (permission
handling, native identity, terminal rules stay per runner because they differ)
and capture hooks. The runner bodies are decomposed into top-level steps so no
function exceeds 150 lines; behavior is unchanged and the fake-driver cases
from the first W4 commit pass unmodified.

The counting capture step and the native completion-summary predicate are now
named functions (countingCapture, isNativeCompletionSummary), so
plan-create-prepublication and plan-count-completion call them directly
instead of executing sliced source. The two harnesses that still execute a
sliced runner body with injected boundaries (eng-seeded-completion-ai,
plan-floor-permission) pass the PtyDriver seam instead of overriding
Date/Bun.sleep.

* test(ratchet-c): register route modules, review resolver modules and server.ts residual cap

* refactor(pty): decompose launchClaudePty and engNumberedFindingAUQ under 150 lines

launchClaudePty (349 lines) becomes launch preparation (args, hermetic
child env, owned state roots), recorder creation, spawn, the trust-dialog
watcher, close, and the session handle over one PtyProcess state object. The
failure order is unchanged: abort the viewport, dispose any recorders created
so far, dispose the viewport, rethrow. The --model / --strict-mcp-config
ordering and seedSkills wiring stay pinned by the behavioral fake-CLI tests.

engNumberedFindingAUQ (345 lines) keeps its guards and dispatch; each
self-contained issue family (declared cache, library retry hooks, cache
owner, injected singleton, shared writers, injected export) moves verbatim
into its own function. Every pty/ module is now <= 800 lines and every
top-level function <= 150 lines.

* test(pty): split claude-pty-runner.unit.test.ts along the pty/ module seams

The 188 unit tests move verbatim into claude-pty-runner.{screen,classify,
auq,launch,plan-native,boundaries}.unit.test.ts (test names unchanged; each
file imports only what it uses from the barrel). The five files that no longer
read a SKILL.md template join the test-of-test ratchet baseline with a reason.

* test(touchfiles): moved PTY modules keep their paid-eval selection

test/fixtures/touchfile-selection/w4-pty.json records, at 96764e8, the paid
evals selected by touching test/helpers/claude-pty-runner.ts (20) and
test/helpers/pty-screen.ts (20). touchfiles.test.ts now asserts every .ts file
under test/helpers/pty/ (and pty/screen.ts for both sources) selects a
superset, reading every golden in that directory so later moves can add one;
a planted-violation case pins the report and its Fix line.

* fix(browse): unexchanged pair setup keys no longer authenticate bearer requests

validateToken accepted a gsk_setup_ key as a bearer on /command, /batch and
/file (found while building the W3 auth matrix). A setup key now only
authenticates the /connect exchange.

* W1: one state-root owner (lib/state-root.ts + bin/gstack-state-root.sh), gstack-paths --explain and fail-stop, parity tests

* W1: guarded migration of every executable state-root site; uninstall deletes only ~/.gstack

Bins, careful/freeze hooks, setup, upgrade migrations, browse/src, design,
ios-qa daemon, lib and scripts resolve the state root through
bin/gstack-state-root.sh (bash) or lib/state-root.ts (TS). Bins source the
twin and stop with a reinstall message when it is missing; hooks source it
and never spawn gstack-paths. browse/src/config.ts and lib/cso/state.ts
delegate to resolveStateRoot. Analytics writers and readers move together
so the usage log stays one file. gstack-uninstall deletes state only at
~/.gstack, refuses (exit 2) when it resolves to /, $HOME or an ancestor,
the checkout or the git root, and leaves any other resolved root in place
with the removal command. Fixtures that copy single bins now copy the twin.

* W1: privacy keys and trust-policy deny tiers merge across state roots; gstack-config reporting; test hermeticity

readConfigKey / gstack_read_config_key return the most restrictive
telemetry, memorable_recall, codex_reviews and update_check across the
resolved root and ~/.gstack; other keys read the resolved root only.
gstack-config set reports an overriding root with the exact override
command, list shows the winning root and a root-variable disagreement line.
gstack-gbrain-repo-policy get merges deny/read-only tiers. gstack-egress
reads through readConfigKey. test-setup.ts strips inherited
GSTACK_STATE_ROOT/GSTACK_STATE_DIR and redirects the legacy root.

* W1: shared hook logging helper (hosts/claude/hooks/hook-log.ts)

One hook-errors.log writer: root from resolveStateRoot, 0600 on every
append, opt-in rate limit used only by memorable-user-prompt. The five
hooks route through it.

* W1: docs/state-root.md and README troubleshooting pointer

Precedence table, a real --explain example, the move-your-state recipe,
merged privacy keys, the uninstall rule, the resolver-failure fix, and the
plugin-mode note (evidence gate: no official plugin distribution).

* W1b: template and resolver prose resolve state through guarded gstack-paths; ratchet (a)

Every gstack-paths eval in templates and resolvers carries the fail-stop
guard; executable ~/.gstack paths in bash blocks (context recovery preamble,
eureka log, analytics, project artifacts, upgrade snooze, setup-gbrain lock,
retro snapshots, ship consent marker) use $GSTACK_STATE_ROOT, and the writer
prose that pairs with them points at the printed PROJECT_DIR / RETRO_FILE.
ship drops export GSTACK_STATE_ROOT. SKILL.md regenerated (claude + codex),
ship goldens re-pinned, parity and context-budget caps raised to the measured
sizes with notes. test/state-root-ratchet.test.ts enforces the rule with a
reasoned allowlist; W1 touchfile entries plus a superset golden.

* refactor: apply W1 state-root edits in W2/W3/W5-owned files; one moved-code touchfile golden for all workstreams

* test: fold the moved-code touchfile golden into touchfiles.test.ts; fix integration fixture closure and caps

* v1.91.11.0: CHANGELOG, TODOS, docs and conventions for the refactor wave

* test: re-measure plan-ceo/design-consultation caps and ship goldens after the guarded plan-discovery and spec-review blocks; add the state-root twin to the workflow-boundaries fixture

* fix(windows): migrations resolve their directory with either path separator; state-root parity compares under the HOME Git Bash actually sees

* fix(review,ship): state plan-check timing after smoke expiry and test_stub Skip semantics (review workflow judge clarity)

* test(qa-eval): webhook fix eval asks for the fix loop's post-repair probes; eight-scenario coverage stays in the report-only case and the harness recheck

* test(qa-eval): re-pin the webhook prompt contract to the fix-loop stage; R29 coverage omissions stay bound by the report-only case

* fix(review,ship): plan checks publish a checkpoint before each probe; only the smoke expiry stop is skipped

* fix(qa): carry #2999's checkpoint receipt link, report-template line and full-revision placeholder (identical hunks)

* test(qa-callers): disable git auto maintenance in the caller fixture

Git 2.47+ runs auto maintenance detached after commit; on the CI runner's git
2.55 it rewrote .git/objects fan-out directories while the write observer was
running, which surfaced as unauthorized mutations. Same gc.auto=0 /
maintenance.auto=false guard the shared-libs fixture already uses.

* test(plan-mode-no-op): require prose evidence for the prose-fallback members so a spinner-frame judge verdict cannot end the run as asked

* test(ship-docsync): carry #2999's seeded-attempt docsync harness (identical files)

The doc-sync fault cases replayed attempt 1 before reaching their gate and ran
out of their 285s budget. The fixture now seeds attempt 1 and the parent starts
at the gate under test. Taken byte-identical from origin/capy/audit-fix-wave
(fb526898, e6ac813d, 6ce10ff7, d0c53577, 77cce3be). Local: stale-before,
recovery and late-result 6/6 PASS (97-164s); the whole file 12/12 PASS.
2026-10-01 11:57:48 -07:00
Garry Tan 943105f109 v1.91.8.0 test: smaller suite, derived paid selection, retired never-green evals (#2994)
* test: delete test-infrastructure dead code (G)

- exit-propagation drives the runner's real strict verdict
  (BunTestOutputClassifier + strictTestExitCode); delete the unused
  shardRunLooksTruncated predicate.
- delete skill-coverage-matrix registry + its gate (nothing reads it; the
  floor already iterates skillCensus()).
- delete touchfiles-facade export-parity tests (Bun fails missing imports
  at link time) and the duplicated E2E_TIERS tier-value test.
- delete brain-cache-spec TRANSPORT_DEFAULT_POLICY, SKILL_RUN_RETENTION_DAYS
  and the now-unused BrainTrustPolicy type with their literal tests.
  AUTOPLAN_PREFLIGHT_BUDGET_BYTES stays: skill-preflight-budget enforces it
  against real resolver output.
- delete audit-compliance's JSDoc-comment grep.

* test: replace product tests that fake the product with real-boundary tests (F)

- design: serve.test.ts drove an inline mirror server; now two tests run the
  real serve() on an ephemeral port (reload confinement, submit exit 0).
- setup-gbrain: rollback + voyage tests execute the template-extracted init
  blocks (3 sites) instead of drifted local bash copies.
- terminal-agent: internalHandler source greps replaced by a behavioral
  /internal/grant + /internal/revoke auth matrix (no/wrong/valid token).
- /health: server-security-surface and the server-auth / security-audit-r2 /
  sidebar-tabs source greps fold into one liveness-only check on the real
  body; the L4 sidecar wiring gets a behavioral /pty-inject-scan test.
- delete tautologies (browser-manager onDisconnect, memory-command #12),
  ios swiftui tap fixture self-check, memory-ingest put_page grep, detach
  source greps, sidebar-agent absence pins, dead-CSS pins + the dead CSS,
  security-audit-r2 Task 1 + the test-only meta-commands re-export,
  duplicate generated-SKILL.md checks.
- make-pdf coverage-gaps cases move into their owner test files.

* test: delete tests of dead eval code (A)

- A1: the retired Eng lexical oracle (evaluateEngSeedCoverage,
  isEngSeedDecisionAUQ), the completion-handoff detector and the retained
  corpus had no paid caller since v1.87.6; delete their 26 replay files,
  ~2.6k helper LOC and fixtures, and the dead blocks in 8 mixed files
  (live hasNativePlanTerminal / batching assertions stay).
- A2: dead viewport approvers in autoplan-artifact-permission and their 11
  replay files + fixtures; recorder/launcher cases stay.
- A3: never-wired oracles and seeders (autoplan-phase-order,
  eng-finding-fixture, ceo-paired-fixture, design-ui-scope,
  plan-skill-completion, pty-current-screen, required-reads,
  transcript-section-logger); plan-seed-submission now decodes through the
  production createPtyScreen; section manifests name their actual guard.
- A4: zero-reference helper exports, plus execGit and invokeAndObserve
  found by the reachability pass.
- 52 fixtures orphaned by the deletions; touchfile and selection-table
  entries for every deleted path.

* test: clean up the paid eval lane (B1-B4, B6, B7)

- B1: delete paid files that assert nothing or cannot pass meaningfully:
  skill-llm-eval-spec and skill-e2e-spec-execute (test.todo), gemini-e2e
  (+ gemini-session-runner; no gemini CLI in CI), ship-idempotency (red
  since v1.63), the two opus-4-7 *-sonnet overlay wrappers, conductor-prose
  (+ its source-evaluation replay), codex-e2e-plan-format; drop their keys,
  scripts and census rows.
- B2: skill-llm-eval grades browse/sections/command-list.md with one union
  judge that also carries the baseline score pin; regression-vs-baseline
  deleted (paid run: pass, c4/c4/a4).
- B3: memory-pipeline, ios-qa, ios-qa-swift-build and plan-tune-cathedral
  make no model calls; renamed out of the paid glob so they run on every
  PR. Swift builds need GSTACK_TEST_SWIFT=1; device stub deleted.
- B4: codex-e2e*, outside-voice, aside and ios-device cannot run in the CI
  image; excluded from the weekly lane with a tracked re-entry condition.
- B6: fold opus-47's negative routing controls into skill-routing-e2e
  journey-negatives (paid run: 3/3 unrouted) and delete the file.
- B7: delete the never-green brain-privacy-gate eval; a free
  gstack-skill-start test now proves consent precedes artifacts egress.

* test: retire the finding-count cluster and trim its helpers (C)

- C0/C1: the five never-green evals (skill-e2e-autoplan-chain and
  skill-e2e-plan-{ceo,eng,design,devex}-finding-count) failed on harness and
  budget, never on skill behavior; delete them, their touchfile/tier ids,
  AUTOPLAN_CHAIN_BUDGET and the dedicated eighth periodic slice (--slices 7).
- C2: delete the helper groups whose only paid consumers were those files
  (11 modules), trim claude-pty-runner and eng-seeded-coverage to the paid
  closure, and delete the free replay tests whose assertions exercised only
  that dead code (89 files, 135 orphaned fixtures). Blocks that used dead code
  only as input for a live subject keep their assertions: the multiSelect
  default moved to plan-review-decisions, runner PTY tests use inline caller
  policies, and the timer-safe budget checks moved to eng-finding-retry-budget.
- The eight production-touching files stay except ceo-current-decision-record
  (its template read only feeds the retired counter).
- CARVE_GUARDS.autoplan is behavioral 'none'; TODOS records the lost chain
  and per-finding cadence coverage with their re-entry tests.

* test: fold per-incident replay series into their detector owners (D)

Twelve detector families move into one owner test each: 73 incident files
become describe blocks in ceo-section-loading-fixture (stale-fill race),
model-overlays, coverage-audit-evidence, autoplan-phase-observer,
native-auto-decide, outside-voice-evidence, eng-first-review,
plan-count-completion, plan-count-file-permission, ceo-mode-option,
plan-scope-selection and plan-count-prerequisite. Each block keeps its original
code and fixture, so every case still runs; only tests asserting the incident
file's own touchfile registration are dropped (41). Touchfile lists that named
an incident now name its owner.

* test: start the plan-count history PTY on its readiness marker (H)

The fake CLI prints a startup marker and the runner waits for it instead of the
fixed 8 s startup sleep (8.6 s -> 0.9 s locally). eng-semantic-terminal's
sleeping registration cases went with C; plan-count-timeout keeps the fixed wait
because it asserts deadline behavior.

* test: derive paid touchfiles from each eval's static closure (E)

touchfiles.test.ts now checks, per key, that the paid file's static
test/helpers and test/fixtures closure (plus fixture paths it names in string
literals) is covered, and names the file, path, chain and key to fix when it is
not. Free *.test.ts files are no longer touchfiles, so editing a free replay
test stops selecting paid evals: 950 entries removed, 653 real closure paths
added. The hand-copied inventories go: periodic-fixture-selection,
fake-impeccable-touchfiles and 45 per-file selection examples. Selection for
the sample edits (plan-eng-review template, claude-pty-runner,
plan-count-fixture, gstack-config) loses no case under either profile.
CONTRIBUTING documents the rule and its lower bound.

* test: skip hollow tier shards and census judges in the paid planner (B5)

A paid file is now skipped for a tier lane only when every E2E id it registers
is known statically and none has that tier; ids come from the touchfile
registrations and literal testName/*IfSelected arguments, so a comment or
skill path that quotes another id cannot unschedule it, and computed names
keep today's scheduling. --list and the manifest show each skip as
"skipped: no E2E_TIERS id has tier <tier>". The weekly gate census drops the
LLM judges (--skip-judges); they still run in the periodic census and PR gate
lanes. Gate lane 52 -> 42 files, census 41; periodic 77 -> 69.

* test: run seven paid evals on the current default capture model (B8)

skill-e2e-{auq-matrix,plan-format,qa-bugs,retro,workflow} pinned
claude-opus-4-7 and skill-e2e-office-hours plus -brain-writeback pinned
claude-sonnet-4-6; none tests a historical model, so they now capture with
resolveEvalModel('capture'), and the free harness tests that execute these
registrations receive the same resolver. The paid re-pin run passed all of
them. skill-e2e-{design,office-hours-phase4,plan-prosons,plan} keep
claude-opus-4-7: six of their cases failed on the default model (three
timeouts, a missing report file, a format miss and a posture score of 3), so
per the plan's fallback they keep their pins with a TODOS entry. The pre-spend
estimate and drop threshold are in docs/test-audit-2026-09.md.

* test: guard the reduced suite against new test-of-test files

- test/test-of-test-ratchet.test.ts records the 228 free tests that import only
  test/ code and fails on a new one, naming the owner test to extend instead;
  a stale baseline entry fails with the remove instruction.
- test/helpers/resolve-repo-path.ts is the one specifier/literal resolver for
  the ratchet and the touchfile closure invariant, with its own unit tests.
- CONTRIBUTING "Test tiers" describes the paid-failure workflow (fix, then one
  row in the detector's owner test) and the ratchet; TEST_PORTFOLIO gains the
  detector -> owner-test table and no longer claims an Autoplan chain eval.
- TODOS: automatic exclusion policy for chronically red periodic files (P3),
  the deferred native-completion table collapse, the unused CEO payment
  seeder; the PTY readiness item is narrowed to the paid runner.
- docs/test-audit-2026-09.md collects the triage, security mapping, inventories,
  selection proof, behavior-commit decisions and retained false positives.

* v1.91.8.0 test: smaller suite, derived paid selection, retired never-green evals

Release metadata for the test-reduction branch: VERSION 1.91.8.0 (1.91.7.0 is
claimed by #2983), CHANGELOG with the measured before/after table and a
contributor section, durations re-recorded on Ubicloud standard-16 (857 files,
0 failures), the agents digest, CONTRIBUTING's after-measurement row, the B8
fallback TODOS entry, and the after metrics, kept-vs-plan notes, B8 run and
census estimate in docs/test-audit-2026-09.md.

* fix(ubicloud): skip retrieval globs that match nothing instead of reporting a failed pull

* test: count issue-numbered Design findings in the UI-scope gate eval
2026-09-29 08:58:49 -07:00
01593aa67c v1.91.2.0 fix: consolidate gstack reliability wave (#2959)
* fix(memory-ingest): --scan-secrets scans the rendered page and fails closed

--scan-secrets ran gitleaks on the raw transcript .jsonl, then imported a
page rendered from it. gitleaks' assignment rules don't match across a
JSON-escaped quote (KEY=\"v\" on disk), so a secret the rendered page
shows as KEY="v" was imported unflagged. And the gate skipped a file only
on scanner "gitleaks" with findings, so a scan that errored (non-zero
exit, 16MB maxBuffer overflow on a file with many findings, unparseable
report) or could not run (gitleaks missing, slow-probe cooldown) imported
the file unscanned.

Scan the rendered page body, the exact bytes writeStaged() writes, via a
new secretScanText() helper, and skip the file whenever the scan did not
complete. Skipped files stay out of the state file, so the next run
retries them. Reword the helper warnings and setup-gbrain/memory.md,
which described the fail-open as intended.

* fix(test): reconcile Bun failure markers and footer counts

* fix(sync-gbrain): verify source-scoped reads without mutation

* fix(test): recognize grounded TTHW target choices structurally

* fix(aside): make the readiness probe work under zsh and report why it failed

The probe built its deadline into `_T` and expanded it unquoted, so
`$_T aside repl …` only worked in a shell that word-splits. zsh does not: it
looked for a command literally named "gtimeout 30", the probe answered
ASIDE_NOT_RUNNING with Aside installed and ready, and every browsing skill
fell back to the bundled Chromium in silence. zsh is the macOS default and
Aside is macOS-only, so on a stock Mac the probe could never report READY.

The deadline becomes a function, `_gs_d`. It receives the command as "$@",
already split, so sh, bash and zsh all behave the same, and the gtimeout →
timeout → perl alarm chain is unchanged. A 4th arm runs the call unbounded
when none of the three is present, which is what the empty `_T` did before.
Not `eval`: it re-parses the string, so the parens and `;` of the perl arm
become syntax and that arm dies in bash *and* zsh — on a stock Mac, the arm
that actually runs.

On failure the probe now prints the CLI's reason after ASIDE_NOT_RUNNING:,
the shape gstack-render already uses: the first line that starts with a
capital letter, i.e. the CLI's own sentence or Node's `Error:` line below its
loader frame. "Not running" covers states with different fixes — no window
open for the profile, a NODE_OPTIONS preload that kills the CLI — and a bare
verdict sent all of them to "open the Aside app". The BROWSER SETUP prose
quotes that reason before asking the user to open the app.

The text pin asserted the broken invocation verbatim, so it now pins the
function and asserts neither `$_T aside repl` nor an eval form comes back. A
second test executes the rendered probe in sh, bash and zsh on each of the
four deadline arms with stubbed binaries on a narrowed PATH, plus two failing
CLIs: one that prints its own sentence, one that crashes like Node with the
useful line below the frame.

The deadline function costs zero bytes against the lines it replaces; the
reason costs 53 per copy of the probe (44 where the reworded BROWSER SETUP
line gives 9 back). That moves four guards by the measured amount:
plan-devex-review's skeleton cap to 68,550 (measured 68,544), plan-ceo-review's
skeleton cap to 80,150 (measured 80,111) and union ratio to 1.081 (measured
1.0803), and plan-eng-review's union ratio to 1.151 (measured 1.1504).

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.

* fix(artifacts): retain custom allowlist rules on reinitialization

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

* test(artifacts): read managed rules from atomic allowlist assembly

Garry TanandClaude Fable 5 008dd65b1f v1.64.0.0 fix wave: full tracker audit — 90 fixes, 52 issues closed, ~50 community PRs absorbed (#2571)
* fix(hooks): nest freeze/careful permissionDecision under hookSpecificOutput

Claude Code ignores a top-level permissionDecision, so the /freeze deny and
/careful ask guards silently allowed everything. Nest both under
hookSpecificOutput with permissionDecisionReason, update the shape-blind
tests to pin the nested form, and document the constraint in both skill
templates (regen included).

Closes half of #1459 (freeze enforcement chain).

* fix(team-init): required-mode hook blocks with nested schema + exit 2

The generated check-gstack.sh emitted a flat permissionDecision payload and
exited 0, which Claude Code ignores — required mode enforced nothing. The
generated hook now nests the deny under hookSpecificOutput and exits 2 so
the block holds even if the JSON schema drifts again. Adds a temp-repo
regression test that runs the generated hook under both installed and
missing-gstack homes.

* fix(careful): close three check-careful bypasses via real JSON extraction

The grep-based command extractor stopped at the first escaped quote, so any
quoted argument truncated the command before the pattern checks ran —
`git commit -m "wip" && rm -rf /` was silently allowed. Replace it with a
python3/node JSON parse that fails CLOSED on unreadable payloads, add an
IFS/base64-to-shell obfuscation tripwire, and stop multi-line commands from
riding the single-line safe-exception whitelist (line-based grep would have
approved `rm -rf /` when a later line matched node_modules — a hazard the
real newline decoding exposed).

Contributed by @wtamminga (PR #2426; the -R hunk was dropped — it landed in
v1.61.0.0 — and output shapes updated to the nested hookSpecificOutput form).

* fix(review,autoplan): require explicit run_in_background: false on specialist agents

Claude Code v2.1.198 made subagents run in the background by default, which
inverted the old "do not use the flag" guidance: review-army specialists and
autoplan dual voices silently launched in the background and the merge step
could proceed before they completed — regressing the #497 fix. The generated
guidance now instructs an explicit run_in_background: false, and a static
tripwire fails the free suite if the inert inverted phrasing ever returns to
any generated SKILL.md.

Fixes #2440.

* fix(investigate): anchor the scope-lock freeze hook on $HOME, not CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR

The investigate skill's PreToolUse hooks and Scope Lock probe resolved
check-freeze.sh via ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}, which does not exist when
frontmatter hooks run — the || exit 0 tail then failed open, so the debug
scope boundary silently never engaged (#1871 follow-up). Anchor all four
sites on $HOME/.claude/skills/gstack/ like careful/freeze, and add a static
test asserting no frontmatter command: line in the guard-family skills ever
references CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR again.

Fixes #2469; closes the last live half of #1459 together with the
freeze/careful hookSpecificOutput fix. The broader portable-install-root
rewrite stays #1882 (its own focused PR per the TODOS.md decision).

Reported with a fix by @maxpetrusenkoagent (PR #1873; absorbed narrowly —
the cwd-walk rewrite belongs to #1882).

* fix(redact): scan large diffs in line-aligned slices; stop digit-UUIDs matching as cards/phones

The prepush guard blocked any push whose added lines exceeded the engine's
1 MiB cap with engine.input_too_large — a size error naming no credential —
which trains people onto GSTACK_REDACT_PREPUSH=skip. Scan in 768 KiB
line-aligned slices instead (no pattern is multi-line, so a boundary cannot
bisect a secret); a single oversized line still goes to the engine intact and
fails closed. Also suppress card/phone matches whose span sits ENTIRELY
inside a UUID — digit-only UUID fixtures were 14 of 21 MEDIUM findings on an
ordinary branch, the noise level that stops people reading MEDIUM at all.

Fixes #2304.

* fix(redact-prepush): resolve the real push base instead of EMPTY_TREE whole-repo scans

When the remote default branch is not main/master (or origin/HEAD is unset),
the merge-base guess failed and the hook fell back to scanning the ENTIRE
repository as added lines — re-attributing long-pushed secrets to the
current push and, on any real repo, tripping the engine byte cap so the push
blocked having scanned nothing. Derive the base from commits reachable from
no remote-tracking branch, keep the empty-tree path only for genuinely fresh
repos, and split the block message so an unscannable diff is reported as
"could not scan (fail closed)" rather than "credential found — rotate it".

* fix(redact-prepush): preserve the trailing newline handed to chained pre-push.local

The chaining wrapper captured stdin with $(cat), which strips the trailing
newline — a chained shell hook built on `while read` then never entered its
loop for the final (usually only) ref line and exited 0, failing OPEN. Use
the printf-x sentinel so the byte-exact input reaches the chained hook, with
tests covering both the pass-through and the short-circuit paths.

* fix(redact-prepush): close the ext-diff, header-lookalike, and ref-parse bypasses

Three ways the pushed diff escaped scanning: (1) a user-level diff.external
or textconv driver replaced the diff with its own output — zero '+' lines,
so the scan saw nothing (now --no-ext-diff --no-textconv); (2) an added
content line whose text begins with "++" renders as "+++…" and the blanket
header skip dropped it (now hunk-aware header detection); (3) a pre-push
ref line that failed to parse was silently skipped, leaving that ref
unscanned (now fails closed with the offending line named).

Minimal reimplementation of the two confirmed bypasses from PR #2498 by
@lubosxyz (the full PR overlaps the chunked-scan work absorbed separately),
plus the unparseable-ref hardening.

* fix(pair-agent): keep the ngrok authtoken out of the transcript and shell argv

The not-authed flow told the user to paste their ngrok authtoken into the
chat so the agent could run `ngrok config add-authtoken` — putting a live
credential in the transcript, tool-call argv, and anything the transcript
syncs to. The user now runs the auth command in their own terminal; the
agent only verifies via `ngrok config check`, and a pasted token triggers a
rotate-and-reauth instruction. A static test pins that no agent-run bash
fence ever contains add-authtoken again.

Fixes #2335.

* fix(update-check): crash emits CHECK_FAILED instead of reading as up-to-date

gstack-update-check signals "up to date" with SILENCE, and it runs under
set -e — so any unguarded mid-script failure exited quietly and was
indistinguishable from a current install. Observed live as a 45-release
silent-staleness incident. An ERR trap (with -E so it propagates into
functions) now emits a CHECK_FAILED sentinel naming the line and status,
and exits 0 so caller `|| true` guards can't eat it. Behavioral tests cover
both the crash and the healthy-silent paths; egress-receipt wiring is
untouched and still pinned by test/egress-receipt-wiring.test.ts.

Fixes #1974. (#2378's HEAD-SHA staleness half was already fixed on main by
the ls-remote + SHA-pinned VERSION resolution — close as already-fixed.)

The advisory affects diff 6.x–8.0.2. The only API this repo uses is
Diff.diffLines (browse/src/snapshot.ts:571, browse/src/meta-commands.ts:728),

* ci(evals): skip eval jobs deterministically on fork PRs

Fork PRs never receive repository secrets, so every API-calling eval failed
at SDK auth — but only when Docker-cache luck let the jobs start at all,
making fork PRs randomly red or grey. Skip the eval and report jobs
explicitly for fork-origin PRs, keep the image BUILD (validates
Dockerfile.ci changes) without the push a fork token can't perform, and

* fix(extension): deny token/port reads to content-script and foreign senders

background.js answered getPort — port, connected state, AND the browse
server auth token — to any sender that passed the type allowlist,
including content scripts running in web-page context and, behind only
the sender.id check, anything without extension-page provenance. The
getToken sender.tab restriction covered getToken alone, and only after
getPort had already handed out the token.

Single decision point now: extension/sender-auth.js classifies each
message type; the eight privileged types (getPort, setPort, getServerUrl,
getToken, fetchRefs, command, sidebar-command, getTabState) require an
own-extension-page sender (chrome-extension://<own id>/ URL, no
sender.tab, own sender.id). Denied senders get { error: 'unauthorized' }
and nothing else — never the token, never the port. Content-script flows
(elementPicked, pickerCancelled, inspectResult, openSidePanel) are
untouched, and the sidepanel/popup keep the getPort token field their
connect path reads. The policy mirrors the v1.63 server-side model:
AUTH_TOKEN is released only to the pinned extension Origin via
POST /extension-token, so the extension must not re-leak it to contexts
the server would never have trusted.

browse/test/extension-sender-auth.test.ts drives the real background.js
onMessage listener under a chrome stub with four sender shapes (own
extension page, own content script, foreign extension id, missing
sender.url) and pins that denied responses carry no token/port fields,
that a denied setPort never persists, that a denied command never
reaches the network, and that the inspector + tab-state flows keep
working. The helper is loaded via importScripts in the classic service
worker and require()-able from bun tests.

v1.63.0.0 made bin/gstack-update-check source bin/gstack-egress-lib.sh

closeTab checked `tabId === this.activeTabId` AFTER awaiting page.close(),
but the page 'close' event handler can fire during that await and reassign
activeTabId — losing the race meant the last-tab auto-create never ran,

failures masked by suite truncation). sidebar-ux.test.ts carried 73 failures

* fix(test): remove all 8 delayed process.exit teardown bombs — the tier-1 gate can finally fail

bun test runs every file in ONE process, so a 500ms setTimeout(process.exit(0))
armed in afterAll fired mid-way through a LATER file and killed the entire
suite with exit 0 and no summary — only ~16 of 434 files ran, and every
downstream failure was invisible (observed live throughout this wave's
enumeration). Changes, all guarded by fault injection:

- Replace every delayed-exit teardown with a time-boxed close of the file's
  own browser (8 files across browse/ and design/); stub the daemon
  /shutdown timer instead of letting its unconditional process.exit tear
  the runner down.
- test/no-suicide-exit.test.ts: static tripwire — no *.test.ts may schedule
  a delayed process.exit again.
- test/exit-propagation.test.ts + fixtures: fault injection with REAL bun
  output proves the truncation shape (exit 0, no summary) and that
  scripts/test-free-shards.ts now detects it: a shard exiting 0 WITHOUT
  bun's final summary line is treated as FAILED (exit code alone is not
  evidence of completion).
- handoff: the three headed-mode integration tests are darwin-skipped with
  a pointer to the known macOS headed-launch breakage (#2242/#2554); they
  keep running on Linux CI. Un-skip in the browse-daemon wave.
- feedback-roundtrip: repair the handler call sites unmasked by the fix —
  handlers take (command, args, session, bm); passing the manager where a
  session belongs broke all six tests.
- user-slug-fallback: HOME isolation makes endpoint_hash deterministic.

design/test was absent from both the package.json test globs and TEST_ROOTS

* fix(make-pdf): reject directories when resolving the browse binary

access(X_OK) is true for directories (they carry the execute/traverse

resolution could pick the ~/.claude/skills/browse alias DIRECTORY as the
browse binary. Every browse call then exited 4 with empty stderr, which
make-pdf surfaced as "Chromium failed to launch" against a perfectly
healthy Chromium (#2156). Guard isExecutable with statSync().isFile()

* fix(make-pdf): write browse-bound temp files under the safe-dirs allowlist

os.tmpdir() on macOS resolves to /var/folders/..., which fails browse's
safe-dirs validation ([/tmp, cwd]) since the v1.6.0.0 --from-file
tightening. Default PDF output (generate with no -o), the preview HTML,
tmpFile() scratch files, and setup's smoke-test fixture/output all wrote
there, so browse rejected the paths it was asked to read or write.

* fix(make-pdf): stop URLs swallowing smartypants placeholders

A bare autolinked URL (<a href="X">X</a>) has zero whitespace between
the URL text and its own closing tag. TAG_RE carves that </a> into a
NUL-delimited SMARTPANTS_PRESERVED placeholder BEFORE the URL pass
runs, and URL_RE's \S+ swallowed the adjacent placeholder into the URL
match. The restore pass is single-shot, so the inner placeholder never
restored: raw "SMARTPANTS_PRESERVED_N" text leaked into the rendered
link, the </a> vanished, and link-blue styling bled into the rest of
the document (#2084). Excluding the NUL sentinel (\u0000) from the URL
character class stops the match from crossing into an already-carved
zone.

* fix(make-pdf): no blank first page when content precedes the first H1

Two paths put invisible content ahead of the first H1 and cost users a
blank page 1 (#1904):

- A visually-empty preamble (leading <style> block, HTML comment)
  became its own .chapter. That section took the `.chapter:first-of-type
  { break-before: auto }` exception, so the first real chapter inherited
  `break-before: page` and started on page 2. Non-rendering preambles
  now fold into the first real chapter (markup preserved, no page
  break); real text preambles keep their own chapter.
- Leading YAML frontmatter rendered as a literal paragraph of body text
  on its own first page (marked has no frontmatter awareness). It is
  now stripped before parsing; a `---` thematic break elsewhere is
  untouched.

* fix(browse): allow about:blank so a restarted daemon can initialise

The daemon opens its own first tab on about:blank, so blocking it in
validateNavigationUrl meant a restarted daemon could never recreate the
blank tab it starts from — and `browse newtab about:blank`, which
`make-pdf setup` runs as its Chromium smoke test, failed and surfaced
as "Chromium failed to launch" against a healthy browser.

Allow about:blank ONLY, never the about: scheme: about:blank has no
origin, loads nothing and runs nothing, while about:config and friends
are real surfaces. Exact href match (lower-cased, since the URL parser
normalises the protocol but not the opaque part), so about:blankfoo
stays blocked.

* fix(design): drop gpt-image-2 tool model that 400s under the gpt-4o orchestrator

The Responses API rejects pairing a gpt-4o orchestrator with an
image_generation tool spec'd as model: "gpt-image-2" (400
invalid_request_error), which took every design image call offline —
generate, variants, iterate (both threaded and fresh paths), evolve,
and /design-shotgun (#1771). gpt-image-2 is only valid under a gpt-5
orchestrator; with gpt-4o the tool must omit the model field (defaults
to gpt-image-1).

Remove the model field at all five call sites and add a static-grep
tripwire test (design/test/image-gen-pairing.test.ts) that fails CI if
any design/src module reintroduces the gpt-4o + gpt-image-2 pairing.
Re-enabling gpt-image-2 later requires bumping the orchestrator off
gpt-4o in the same diff, which the tripwire permits.

Pages stage into ~/.gstack/.staging-ingest-*/ inside a repo whose .gitignore

imported nothing, and the ingest still reported "written: N" from the STAGED

layers now: (1) pass --include-gitignored (root cause); (2) if the installed
gbrain predates the flag, retry without it (subcommand --help is generic, so
the attempt is the only probe) with an upgrade pointer; (3) reconcile
gbrain's imported+unchanged accounting against the staged count and REFUSE

* fix(session-update): un-wedge auto-upgrade — autostash over local patches, log the pull's real reason

On a normal install the tracked files ARE locally patched (skill-prefix
name rewrites, gbrain-refresh blocks), so the bare `git pull --ff-only`
refused on every run and auto-upgrade froze forever — observed as 308
consecutive PULL_FAILED entries with the reason discarded by 2>/dev/null.
Pull now runs --autostash (local patches ride over the update and pop back),
stderr is captured into the log so a genuine failure names its cause, an
autostash pop conflict recovers to a clean tree and re-renders the patches
(gstack-patch-names + gbrain-refresh, both idempotent), and a successful
pull re-renders them as a self-heal. Behavioral tests cover the wedge shape
and the reason logging.

bun's 5s default is fine for a file run solo, but the monolithic free suite

* fix(question-log): parse native AskUserQuestion answers — every native answer logged as __unknown__

Current Claude Code returns AskUserQuestion results as an OBJECT map keyed
by question text ({answers: {question: label}}); the hook only handled the
legacy array shapes, so 86% of live records carried user_choice __unknown__
— and the bin then scored every one as followed_recommendation false,
silently poisoning plan-tune metrics. Adds the object-map extraction (exact
+ whitespace-normalized + single-question pairing, multiSelect joins,
annotations as free_text), strips the (Recommended) suffix from BOTH sides
of the comparison, skips the computation entirely on extraction failure,
and logs unrecognized shapes to hook-errors.log instead of embedding them
in the record.

gstack-slug derived everything from pwd, so a session in a subdirectory got

outermost STRONG marker wins (.git, package.json, pyproject.toml, Cargo.toml,
Gemfile, go.mod, .project.yaml), weak content markers (README, LICENSE) catch
non-code project folders, deploy artifacts are deliberately not markers, and
GSTACK_PROJECT_SLUG remains the escape hatch. The cache self-heals on

* fix(hooks): shared spawn-bin helper — all three AskUserQuestion hooks were inert on Windows

The plan-tune hooks resolved bin scripts via new URL(import.meta.url).pathname
(which doubles the drive letter on Windows: /C:/C:/...) and spawnSync'd
extensionless bash scripts directly (unrunnable without a shell association)
— so question logging, preferences, and the error fallback all silently
no-op'd on Windows, and /plan-tune collected no data. A single spawn-bin.ts
helper now owns bin resolution (fileURLToPath) and win32 bash routing for

raw pattern. This is the one Windows-spawn idiom for hook code.

* fix(windows): grant icacls ACEs by *SID, not unqualified username

An unqualified username handed to icacls is ambiguous: on a machine whose
hostname equals the username (a common Windows setup), it resolves to the
MACHINE account instead of the user. Combined with /inheritance:r, that
leaves ~/.gstack with a single ACE matching nobody — the process that just
"secured" the directory locks itself out, and icacls still reports success.

Both icacls sites in the repo (restrictFilePermissions and
restrictDirectoryPermissions in browse/src/file-permissions.ts — the only
icacls call sites; setup has none) now grant via icacls' literal-SID form
`*<SID>`, resolved once per process from System32\whoami.exe (pinned to
System32 because a bare `whoami` under a bash-flavoured PATH picks up the
MSYS build, which rejects /user). Fallback when the SID can't be resolved
is the domain-qualified `USERDOMAIN\username` name, which is unambiguous
where the bare username was not.

Windows-only regression tests assert the hardened directory stays usable
by the calling process (readdir + write), which is exactly the check that
a not-toThrow assertion sailed past before.

* fix(windows): forward windowsHide through the bun-polyfill spawn shims

windowsHide is the one spawn option where Node's default is the opposite
of Bun's: Node shows the child's console window, Bun.spawn hides it.
The polyfill's spawn and spawnSync shims dropped the option entirely, so
the Node fallback path (dist/bun-polyfill.cjs) silently inverted the
behavior on the one platform the shim exists to serve — every watchdog
respawn of the terminal agent popped a visible bun.exe console window.

Three sites fixed:
- Bun.spawnSync shim: forwards windowsHide with Bun-matching default true
- Bun.spawn shim: same (stdio:'ignore' silences output but does NOT
  suppress the console window on Windows)
- spawnTerminalAgent in terminal-agent-control.ts: explicit
  windowsHide: true, so the Node fallback path behaves like Bun-native

An explicit windowsHide: false is honored at both shims. Three focused
tests pin the default-true, default-true-sync, and explicit-false paths
by intercepting child_process in a subprocess; the test file's require
path now uses forward slashes so it survives interpolation into a JS
string literal on Windows.

Supersedes PRs #2523, #2294 and #2290, which each covered a subset of
these sites.

* fix(watchdog): signal-0 liveness, tick-scaled respawn guard, windowsHide

Three-bug chain behind the Windows terminal-agent leak (console window
strobing every 60s, one orphaned agent per watchdog tick until the box
ran out of committable memory):

1. isProcessAlive shelled out to `tasklist /FI "PID eq <pid>"` on Windows
   with a 3s timeout. A Bun.spawnSync that hits its timeout still RETURNS
   with partial stdout, so the `.includes()` PID match read a LIVE agent
   as dead — killAgentByRecord skipped the kill, the watchdog respawned
   around the survivor, and every orphan slowed the next tasklist enough
   to produce the next false negative. Now: `process.kill(pid, 0)` on
   every platform (Node and Bun both map signal 0 to an OpenProcess
   existence check on Windows), with EPERM counted as alive. No
   subprocess, no timeout, no console window.

2. The respawn circuit-breaker was mathematically unreachable — verified
   in this tree: RESPAWN_GUARD_WINDOW_MS was a fixed 60_000 against a
   60_000ms default tick, and each tick pushes at most one respawn
   timestamp, so three pushes span ~120s and can never coexist inside a
   60s window (eviction is strict `>`, and setInterval drift plus
   per-tick work always ages the prior entry past the boundary). The
   guard could not fire at the default tick rate and a steady
   one-per-tick leak ran unbounded. The window now scales with the tick:
   max(60_000, tick * (RESPAWN_GUARD_MAX + 2)), so "3 crashes in quick
   succession → stop" holds at any tick value.

3. The tasklist probe popped a visible console per tick (no windowsHide).
   Removing the shell-out kills that site; the agent-spawn site itself
   already passes windowsHide: true (landed with the bun-polyfill
   windowsHide commit — PR #2414's terminal-agent-control.ts hunk is
   reconciled there rather than duplicated).

New browse/test/process-liveness-windows.test.ts pins all three: no
subprocess from the probe, a static tripwire against reintroducing
`tasklist` + `PID eq` liveness checks in src/, the spawnTerminalAgent
windowsHide + stdio contract, and the window-derived-from-tick
arithmetic. terminal-agent-watchdog.test.ts test 4 now pins the
window/tick relationship instead of the fixed literal that let this
ship. Also converts `new URL(import.meta.url).pathname` to
`import.meta.path` across the static-grep tests it touches — the
pathname form yields /C:/... on Windows and breaks path.resolve.

* fix(terminal-agent): tie agent lifetime to its owning browse server PID

The terminal agent is intentionally detached so it survives the
short-lived CLI launcher, but its real owner is the persistent browse
server. If that server crashed or was killed before running normal
shutdown, the agent was adopted by PID 1 and lived forever (#2019).

spawnTerminalAgent now requires an ownerPid and exports it to the agent
as BROWSE_OWNER_PID; all three spawn sites pass the server PID (cli.ts
cold-start, cli.ts supervisor respawn, server.ts watchdog). The agent
polls the owner with signal 0 every 15s (GSTACK_TERMINAL_OWNER_WATCHDOG_MS
to tune) on an unref'd timer and, when the owner disappears, exits
through the SAME cleanup path as an intentional SIGTERM shutdown — now
re-entrancy-guarded and also removing the terminal-internal-token file
alongside the port file and agent record.

Runtime test spawns a real agent tied to a throwaway owner process,
kills the owner, and asserts the agent exits and its discovery files
(terminal-agent-pid, terminal-port) are gone.

Reconciled with the watchdog commit's spawnTerminalAgent contract test
(process-liveness-windows.test.ts now passes ownerPid and pins the
BROWSE_OWNER_PID env forwarding).

Closes #2019.

* fix(windows): give the bun-polyfill spawn shim a real `exited` promise

Bun.spawn exposes `proc.exited` as a Promise resolving to the exit code.
The Node fallback shim (dist/bun-polyfill.cjs) returned no such field, so
every `await proc.exited` on the Windows path resolved instantly to
undefined — the Windows cookie picker (cookie-import-browser.ts races
proc.exited at three sites) read stdout before the child produced it and
silent-failed; browser-skill-commands and terminal-agent hit the same
class.

The shim now:
- drains stdout/stderr eagerly into capped in-memory buffers (Node's
  Readables are pull-based; without draining, a child writing past the
  OS pipe buffer blocks in write() and 'exit' never fires), replaying
  them as fresh single-shot Web ReadableStreams so reads work before or
  after awaiting exit;
- caps the buffer at 16 MB (GSTACK_SPAWN_MAX_BUFFER to override), still
  draining past the cap so a runaway child can't wedge or OOM;
- resolves `exited` with Bun-matching codes (exit code, 128+signal, 1 on
  spawn error) after both pipes finish, and resolves on 'error' too —
  Node fires 'error' without 'exit' when the binary is missing, which
  otherwise hangs the await forever.

Six tests pin exit codes, the read-after-exit ordering, spawn-failure
resolution, the buffer cap, and the large-output drain. Adapted to the
current test file (require path goes through the requirePath variable
from the windowsHide commit), and the 1 MB drain test's child now exits
in the write callback — on modern Node a pipe write past the OS buffer
is async and process.exit() straight after write() truncates at ~64 KB
even with a live reader, which fails the test for reasons unrelated to
the shim.

* fix(setup): BROWSE_BIN carries the .exe suffix on Windows

On Windows, `bun build --compile` emits browse.exe, but setup's
BROWSE_BIN pointed at the suffixless path — so the post-build gate
(`[ ! -x "$BROWSE_BIN" ]` → "browse binary missing") could never pass on
Windows even after a fully successful build, while the build step itself
reported success. Closes #2291.

Applied the PR's override after the IS_WINDOWS detection, and also to
the second BROWSE_BIN assignment the PR predates: the direct-Codex-
install migration path re-derives BROWSE_BIN from the migrated dir and
would otherwise drop the suffix again on Windows.

* fix(setup): link lib/ beside bin/ at all five host-install sites

bin/ scripts import shared modules via ../lib (gstack-learnings-log →
lib/jsonl-store.ts is the reported case), so any runtime root that
exposes bin/ without lib/ breaks 13 bin/ commands — learnings-log,
decision-log, telemetry and friends fail with "Cannot find module
.../lib/jsonl-store.ts" on every non-Claude install, silently from the
skills' perspective.

All five host-install sites now carry lib/ next to bin/, each through
the existing _link_or_copy helper (never raw ln — the static invariant
in test/setup-windows-fallback.test.ts enforces this):

- .agents sidecar (create_agents_sidecar asset loop)
- Codex runtime root (create_codex_runtime_root)
- Factory runtime root (create_factory_runtime_root)
- OpenCode runtime root (create_opencode_runtime_root)
- Kiro install block

New test/setup-runtime-lib-command.test.ts executes the real setup shell
for each root in a sandbox (both the symlink branch and the Windows copy
branch of _link_or_copy) and runs gstack-learnings-log end-to-end from
the installed root, asserting the learning lands in
~/.gstack/projects/<slug>/learnings.jsonl — plus a negative control
proving a bin-without-lib root fails exactly the way the bug report did.
gen-skill-docs.test.ts's setup-validation block pins the lib link at
every site. Cross-checked against PRs #2433, #2410 and #2198: all three
cover subsets of these sites; nothing they fix is missing here.

project URL on non-Claude installs. Closes #2215.

setup now links supabase/config.sh (file-level on purpose — migrations/
and functions/ are dev-only) via _link_or_copy at all five host-install
sites: the PR's four (Codex, Factory, OpenCode runtime roots + the Kiro
block) plus the .agents sidecar, whose bin/ resolves the same relative
path and which the PR predates covering.

The runtime-root test now asserts supabase/config.sh is present in

* ci(windows): curate the fix-wave regression tests into the windows-latest run

The windows-free-tests curated set is derived (POSIX-fragility regex scan
+ explicit deny list), and two of this wave's Windows regression files
were auto-excluded on false-positive pattern hits:

- browse/test/file-permissions.test.ts tripped the POSIX-mode-bitmask
  pattern, but every `mode & 0o777` assertion is platform-guarded — and
  the file carries the win32-only icacls-by-SID regression tests, which
  can only ever execute on windows-latest.
- browse/test/terminal-agent-owner-watchdog.test.ts tripped the
  spawn(['bun','run',...]) pattern whose reason is the Playwright-bound
  browse server; it actually spawns terminal-agent.ts (fs/path/crypto +
  local helpers only, no Playwright at module scope), and the owner-PID
  orphan leak it pins was reported on Windows (#2019).

Adds a KNOWN_WINDOWS_SAFE force-include list (mirror of
KNOWN_WINDOWS_INCOMPATIBLE, each entry carrying its false-positive
rationale) consulted before the pattern scan, and makes the
owner-watchdog test's throwaway owner process Windows-portable
(process.execPath instead of `sleep`, which a bare runner may not have).

The wave's other new files need no wiring: process-liveness-windows and
the bun-polyfill windowsHide/exited tests pass curation automatically;
setup-runtime-lib-command self-skips on win32 by design (its Windows
branch is exercised by simulating IS_WINDOWS=1 under bash), so
force-including it would add a permanently-skipped file.

* fix(mktemp): move the X-run to the end of every temp-file template (BSD/busybox safe)

BSD mktemp (macOS) does not substitute an X-run that has a suffix after it:
`mktemp "$TMP_ROOT/codex-err-XXXXXX.txt"` creates a LITERAL
codex-err-XXXXXX.txt on the first call (exit 0) and every later call fails
with `mkstemp failed: File exists` — so /codex breaks from the SECOND run on
every Mac, masquerading as a model stall. busybox mktemp (Alpine) rejects the
template on the first run. Fixes #2091, #2370.

Union of both community fixes, compared at the diff level:
- PR #2372: all 11 source sites with a suffix after the X-run — codex
  SKILL.md.tmpl (5), claude SKILL.md.tmpl (3), bin/gstack-developer-profile

  codex pass in scripts/resolvers/review.ts (1).
- PR #2103: the second half of #2091 — bin/gstack-paths now strips the
  trailing slash from TMP_ROOT at the source (macOS $TMPDIR ends in `/`),
  plus runtime tests pinning that normalization.

New repo-wide tripwire in test/regression-issue2091-bsd-mktemp.test.ts:
every .tmpl, every SKILL.md, and every scripts/resolvers/*.ts is swept —

* fix(codex,review,ship): scope codex review with an explicit --base flag, never prompt text

`codex review` takes its scope ONLY from --base/--commit/--uncommitted. The
positional [PROMPT] is mutually exclusive with all three, and a prompt-only
`codex review "<text>"` silently falls back to the uncommitted working-tree
scope (verified on 0.144.1: it runs `git status --short; git diff` and
reviews that) — so the previous prompt-based scoping produced a
confidently-worded review of the WRONG changes and read "no changes" on a
clean tree. Every diff pass now invokes `codex review --base <base>` with no
prompt argument: /codex Step 2A default path, the /review structured pass,
and the /ship adversarial-section pass (all via scripts/resolvers/review.ts).

Custom review instructions keep their own `codex exec` path (the CLI rejects
prompt + scope flag together), with the filesystem boundary preserved there.
Two new Error Handling entries teach the failure shapes: the argv-parse
error, and the "review says no changes on a branch full of changes" symptom.

Tests updated to pin the new invariant instead of banning the fix: the old
assertions required the diff range in prompt text and banned the
`--base <base> -c '...'` substring, which the correct scoped form contains.
Also deletes test/fixtures/golden-ship-claude.md — a 2,565-line orphaned
fixture referenced by zero tests (the live goldens are in
test/fixtures/golden/, compared by test/host-config.test.ts); the factory
golden is refreshed from the regenerated output. Generated SKILL.md files

* fix(review,ship): run the codex diff passes under the timeout wrapper (#1036)

The `_gstack_codex_timeout_wrapper` added in #1056 was wired into
codex/SKILL.md but never into the /review and /ship diff passes, which kept
running under a bare 5-minute Bash gate. An unwrapped stall returns no exit
code and no output, which downstream reads as "Codex reviewed and found
nothing" — a truncated pass silently became a clean bill. Measured on
codex-cli 0.145.0: a pass was killed at 287s of a 300s budget mid-tool-call,
and the same prompt completed in 336s.

Both passes in scripts/resolvers/review.ts (adversarial `codex exec` and the
structured `codex review --base` pass) now re-source gstack-codex-probe and
run under `_gstack_codex_timeout_wrapper 540`, with the Bash tool gate raised
to 600000 ms so the wrapper fires FIRST and a stall surfaces as a diagnosable
exit 124. The timeout guidance now says a timed-out pass is MISSING COVERAGE,
not a clean result, and points at the run's rollout log under
~/.codex/sessions/ for partial output. The stale "timeout doesn't exist on
macOS" claim is gone — the wrapper resolves gtimeout, then timeout, then runs
unwrapped, so it is safe without coreutils.

Static guards in test/codex-hardening.test.ts pin all three sites (resolver,
review/SKILL.md, ship/sections/adversarial.md): both calls wrapped, wrapper
budget strictly under the Bash gate, and no reappearance of the macOS claim
that steered these call sites away from the wrapper in the first place. The
Claude-output path guard in test/gen-skill-docs.test.ts now scrubs
~/.codex/sessions/ (a user-facing Codex CLI path, same class as the
~/.codex/logs/ exemption) before banning Codex host paths. Generated files
regenerated via gen:skill-docs; factory golden refreshed.

* fix(codex): sandbox the review path, fail the gate closed, order timeouts wrapper-first

Closes #2496, #2524, #2477 — three defects in the class "a guard that
reports success while doing nothing", all in codex/SKILL.md.tmpl:

(a) Review sandbox. The default `codex review` path was the only codex call
with no sandbox override, inheriting ~/.codex/config.toml's default — write
access on a trusted project — while Important Rules claimed read-only.
Top-level `codex review` has no -s/--sandbox flag (verified on 0.147.0), so
the invocation now pins `-c 'sandbox_mode="read-only"'`, the same form the
consult-resume path already uses.

(b) Fail-closed verdict gate. The old rule ("no [P1] found → PASS") could
not fail on the default path: native `codex review` output carries no
bracketed tags, and a non-zero exit, expired auth, timeout, or empty result
also contains no [P1] — all read as PASS. The gate is now an ordered,
fail-closed check: non-zero exit → FAIL; empty output → FAIL; [P0]/[P1]
(bracketed or codex's native labels) → FAIL with count; NO severity tags at
all → FAIL requiring a human read; PASS is only reachable through the
explicit tagged-advisory-only branch. [P0] is recognized as blocking, and
the review-log findings count includes it.

(c) Bash gate above the wrapper. Step 2A instructed `timeout: 300000` under
a 330s wrapper, and Challenge's 300s gate sat under a 600s wrapper — the
harness killed the call before the wrapper could emit its diagnosable
exit-124 message. Every Bash gate now sits strictly ABOVE its wrapper:
360000 over the 330s review wrapper, 660000 over the 600s challenge/consult
wrappers, with the ordering rationale stated at each site.

Also from #2477/#2524: a new Error Handling entry for the model-entitlement
400 ("The '<model>' model is not supported...") pointing at the `model =`
pin and `[notice.model_migrations]` in ~/.codex/config.toml and saying
exactly which override to retry with (-m for exec-based modes,
`-c model="..."` for review mode, which rejects -m); the Model & Reasoning
section no longer documents `-m` for `/codex review`.

Static assertions in test/codex-hardening.test.ts pin (a)-(c) across both
the .tmpl and the generated SKILL.md: every scoped review invocation carries
sandbox_mode="read-only" and never -s; the default-PASS sentence is banned
and the fail-closed branches are present; and per-section, every Bash
`timeout: N` is strictly greater than every wrapper budget, with 2A/2B/2C
all required to be inspected. Generated SKILL.md regenerated via
gen:skill-docs in this commit.

* fix(browse): daemon resilience on loaded machines — Bun conn errors, stop/restart flush, startup + git-root budgets

Four load-sensitivity fixes in the daemon lifecycle:

- sendCommand only recognized Node's ECONNREFUSED/ECONNRESET; the compiled
  CLI runs on Bun, which reports 'ConnectionRefused'/'ConnectionClosed'
  ("Unable to connect..."), so daemon crashes leaked the raw error and
  exited 1 instead of entering the busy-check/restart path. Match both.
- stop/restart called shutdown() inline, which exits before the HTTP
  response flushes — the CLI saw a dropped socket (and would now
  crash-retry a fresh daemon just to stop it). Defer shutdown ~100ms so
  the 200 lands first.
- Non-CI POSIX startup budget raised 8s -> 15s (cold Chromium measured
  ~5.7s at load avg 10; load 12+ blew the old budget while the detached
  daemon was still booting).
- getGitRoot's 2s git rev-parse timeout returned null under load (6.3s
  spikes measured), scattering state files across cwds into split-brain
  daemons. Raise to 8s, still bounded.

* test(redact-prepush): assemble the fake AWS key at runtime — the literal blocked our own push

The hook's fixtures carried a live-format AKIA literal, and the repo's own
pre-push scanner (hardened in this wave) correctly blocked pushing it. The
placeholder-suppressed docs key would defeat the detection tests, so the
fixtures now concatenate the key at runtime: tests still exercise real
detection, and the pushed diff never contains a scannable credential shape.

* fix(slug): terminate the marker walk-up on dirname's fixed point — hung every bin on Windows

Under git-bash on Windows a mixed-form path walks C:/Users -> C: -> . -> .
forever: dirname's fixed point there is never "/", so the walk-up loop spun
and every bin that evals gstack-slug (learnings-log first among them) hung
until spawn timeout. Caught by windows-free-tests CI on the wave PR. Break
on the fixed point itself with a depth cap for exotic forms; regression
tests drive the extracted function with hostile path shapes under a hard
timeout.

Garry TanandClaude Opus 4.7 61c9a20bd2 v1.43.3.0 fix(browse): headed-mode idle timer + onDisconnect target wrong BrowserManager for embedders (#1645)
* fix(browse): route 4 lifecycle handlers through activeBrowserManager indirection

Module-level idleCheckTick, parent watchdog, SIGTERM handler, and
buildFetchHandler's onDisconnect wire all read the module-level
BrowserManager directly. For embedders (gbrowser) that pass their
own instance into buildFetchHandler, the module-level instance
never has launchHeaded() called on it — connectionMode stays
'launched' forever, headed-mode early-returns never fire, and
after 30 min of HTTP idle the server self-terminates out from
under the overlay.

Adds `let activeBrowserManager: BrowserManager` at module scope
(symmetric with the existing `let activeShutdown` pattern).
buildFetchHandler retargets it at cfg.browserManager and CHAINS
cfg.browserManager.onDisconnect to activeShutdown, preserving any
caller-installed handler instead of clobbering it.

Six edit sites in browse/src/server.ts:
- Edit 1 (~705): declare activeBrowserManager
- Edit 2 (~596): extract idleCheckTick + __testInternals__ export
- Edit 3 (~658): parent watchdog reads activeBrowserManager
- Edit 4 (~1387): retarget + chain cfgBrowserManager.onDisconnect
- Edit 5 (verify): line 714 default stays in place
- Edit 6 (~1212): SIGTERM handler reads activeBrowserManager

* test(browse): pin idle timer + onDisconnect dual-instance fix behaviorally

Adds 5 behavioral tests to browse/test/server-factory.test.ts under
a new 'idle timer + onDisconnect dual-instance fix' describe block:

- T1 (CRITICAL — REGRESSION): headed embedder does not auto-shutdown
  at idle. Pins the bug this PR fixes.
- T2 (paired defensive): headless still auto-shuts down at idle.
  Catches a future refactor that breaks the inverse case.
- T3 (chain semantics): buildFetchHandler chains
  cfgBrowserManager.onDisconnect, preserving any caller-set handler.
  Uses .rejects.toThrow for the async shutdown path.
- T4 (tunnelActive): tunnel-active blocks idle-shutdown even in
  headless mode.
- T5 (static guard): exactly 3 module-level lifecycle sites use
  activeBrowserManager.getConnectionMode() — idleCheckTick, parent
  watchdog, SIGTERM. Catches refactor-introduced regressions before
  CI.

Reuses existing makeMinimalConfig() + __resetRegistry() patterns
from the factory contract tests. New makeMockBrowserManager() helper.
beforeEach also resets module state via setTunnelActive,
setLastActivity, and resetShutdownState from __testInternals__.

Also deletes the old 'idle check skips in headed mode' string-grep
test from browse/test/sidebar-ux.test.ts at line 1596. That test
would have passed even with the dual-instance bug present
(grepped for "=== 'headed'" + 'return' in the same window).
Behavioral coverage moved to server-factory.test.ts.

Verified: 33/33 tests pass in browse/test/server-factory.test.ts.

* fix(browse): Windows launcher extraEnv + headed-mode token (#822)

Community PR #822 by @pieterklue. Three fixes:
1. Windows launcher now merges extraEnv into spawned server env (was
   only passing BROWSE_STATE_FILE, dropping all other env vars)
2. Welcome page fallback serves inline HTML instead of about:blank
   redirect (avoids ERR_UNSAFE_REDIRECT on Windows)
3. /health returns auth token in headed mode even without Origin header
   (fixes Playwright Chromium extensions that don't send it)

Also adds HOME/USERPROFILE fallback for cross-platform compatibility.

* feat: CDP inspector module — persistent sessions, CSS cascade, style modification

New browse/src/cdp-inspector.ts with full CDP inspection engine:
- inspectElement() via CSS.getMatchedStylesForNode + DOM.getBoxModel
- modifyStyle() via CSS.setStyleTexts with headless page.evaluate fallback
- Persistent CDP session lifecycle (create, reuse, detach on nav, re-create)
- Specificity sorting, overridden property detection, UA rule filtering
- Modification history with undo support
- formatInspectorResult() for CLI output

* feat: browse server inspector endpoints + inspect/style/cleanup/prettyscreenshot CLI

Server endpoints: POST /inspector/pick, GET /inspector, POST /inspector/apply,
POST /inspector/reset, GET /inspector/history, GET /inspector/events (SSE).
CLI commands: inspect (CDP cascade), style (live CSS mod), cleanup (page clutter
removal), prettyscreenshot (clean screenshot pipeline).

* feat: sidebar CSS inspector — element picker, box model, rule cascade, quick edit

Extension changes for the visual CSS inspector:
- inspector.js: element picker with hover highlight, CSS selector generation,
  basic mode fallback (getComputedStyle + CSSOM), page alteration handlers
- inspector.css: picker overlay styles (blue highlight + tooltip)
- background.js: inspector message routing (picker <-> server <-> sidepanel)
- sidepanel: Inspector tab with box model viz (gstack palette), matched rules

* feat: auto-track user-created tabs and handle tab close

browser-manager.ts changes:
- context.on('page') listener: automatically tracks tabs opened by the user
  (Cmd+T, right-click open in new tab, window.open). Previously only
  programmatic newTab() was tracked, so user tabs were invisible.
- page.on('close') handler in wirePageEvents: removes closed tabs from the
  pages map and switches activeTabId to the last remaining tab.
- syncActiveTabByUrl: match Chrome extension's active tab URL to the correct
  Playwright page for accurate tab identity.

* feat: per-tab agent isolation via BROWSE_TAB environment variable

Prevents parallel sidebar agents from interfering with each other's tab context.

Three-layer fix:
- sidebar-agent.ts: passes BROWSE_TAB=<tabId> env var to each claude process,
  per-tab processing set allows concurrent agents across tabs
- cli.ts: reads process.env.BROWSE_TAB and includes tabId in command request body
- server.ts: handleCommand() temporarily switches activeTabId when tabId is present,
  restores after command completes (safe: Bun event loop is single-threaded)

Also: per-tab agent state (TabAgentState map), per-tab message queuing,
per-tab chat buffers, verbose streaming narration, stop button endpoint.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: sidebar per-tab chat context, tab bar sync, stop button, UX polish

Extension changes:
- sidepanel.js: per-tab chat history (tabChatHistories map), switchChatTab()
  swaps entire chat view, browserTabActivated handler for instant tab sync,
  stop button wired to /sidebar-agent/stop, pollTabs renders tab bar
- sidepanel.html: updated banner text ("Browser co-pilot"), stop button markup,
  input placeholder "Ask about this page..."
- sidepanel.css: tab bar styles, stop button styles, loading state fixes
- background.js: chrome.tabs.onActivated sends browserTabActivated to sidepanel
  with tab URL for instant tab switch detection

* test: per-tab isolation, BROWSE_TAB pinning, tab tracking, sidebar UX

sidebar-agent.test.ts (new tests):
- BROWSE_TAB env var passed to claude process
- CLI reads BROWSE_TAB and sends tabId in body
- handleCommand accepts tabId, saves/restores activeTabId
- Tab pinning only activates when tabId provided
- Per-tab agent state, queue, concurrency
- processingTabs set for parallel agents

sidebar-ux.test.ts (new tests):
- context.on('page') tracks user-created tabs
- page.on('close') removes tabs from pages map
- Tab isolation uses BROWSE_TAB not system prompt hack
- Per-tab chat context in sidepanel
- Tab bar rendering, stop button, banner text

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: resolve merge conflicts — keep security defenses + per-tab isolation

Merged main's security improvements (XML escaping, prompt injection defense,
allowed commands whitelist, --model opus, Write tool, stderr capture) with
our branch's per-tab isolation (BROWSE_TAB env var, processingTabs set,
no --resume). Updated test expectations for expanded system prompt.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.13.9.0)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: add inspector message types to background.js allowlist

Pre-existing bug found by Codex: ALLOWED_TYPES in background.js was missing
all inspector message types (startInspector, stopInspector, elementPicked,
pickerCancelled, applyStyle, toggleClass, injectCSS, resetAll, inspectResult).
Messages were silently rejected, making the inspector broken on ALL pages.

Also: separate executeScript and insertCSS into individual try blocks in
injectInspector(), store inspectorMode for routing, and add content.js
fallback when script injection fails (CSP, chrome:// pages).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: basic element picker in content.js for CSP-restricted pages

When inspector.js can't be injected (CSP, chrome:// pages), content.js
provides a basic picker using getComputedStyle + CSSOM:
- startBasicPicker/stopBasicPicker message handlers
- captureBasicData() with ~30 key CSS properties, box model, matched rules
- Hover highlight with outline save/restore (never leaves artifacts)
- Click uses e.target directly (no re-querying by selector)
- Sends inspectResult with mode:'basic' for sidebar rendering
- Escape key cancels picker and restores outlines

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: cleanup + screenshot buttons in sidebar inspector toolbar

Two action buttons in the inspector toolbar:
- Cleanup (🧹): POSTs cleanup --all to server, shows spinner, chat
  notification on success, resets inspector state (element may be removed)
- Screenshot (📸): POSTs screenshot to server, shows spinner, chat
  notification with saved file path

Shared infrastructure:
- .inspector-action-btn CSS with loading spinner via ::after pseudo-element
- chat-notification type in addChatEntry() for system messages
- package.json version bump to 0.13.9.0

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: inspector allowlist, CSP fallback, cleanup/screenshot buttons

16 new tests in sidebar-ux.test.ts:
- Inspector message allowlist includes all inspector types
- content.js basic picker (startBasicPicker, captureBasicData, CSSOM,
  outline save/restore, inspectResult with mode basic, Escape cleanup)
- background.js CSP fallback (separate try blocks, inspectorMode, fallback)
- Cleanup button (POST /command, inspector reset after success)
- Screenshot button (POST /command, notification rendering)
- Chat notification type and CSS styles

* feat: cleanup + screenshot buttons in chat toolbar (not just inspector)

Quick actions toolbar (🧹 Cleanup, 📸 Screenshot) now appears above the chat
input, always visible. Both inspector and chat buttons share runCleanup() and
runScreenshot() helper functions. Clicking either set shows loading state on
both simultaneously.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: chat toolbar buttons, shared helpers, quick-action-btn styles

Tests that chat toolbar exists (chat-cleanup-btn, chat-screenshot-btn,
quick-actions container), CSS styles (.quick-action-btn, .quick-action-btn.loading),
shared runCleanup/runScreenshot helper functions, and cleanup inspector reset.

* feat: aggressive cleanup heuristics — overlays, scroll unlock, blur removal

Massively expanded CLEANUP_SELECTORS with patterns from uBlock Origin and
Readability.js research:
- ads: 30+ selectors (Google, Amazon, Outbrain, Taboola, Criteo, etc.)
- cookies: OneTrust, Cookiebot, TrustArc, Quantcast + generic patterns
- overlays (NEW): paywalls, newsletter popups, interstitials, push prompts,
  app download banners, survey modals
- social: follow prompts, share tools
- Cleanup now defaults to --all when no args (sidebar button fix)
- Uses !important on all display:none (overrides inline styles)
- Unlocks body/html scroll (overflow:hidden from modal lockout)
- Removes blur/filter effects (paywall content blur)
- Removes max-height truncation (article teaser truncation)
- Collapses empty ad placeholder whitespace (empty divs after ad removal)
- Skips gstack-ctrl indicator in sticky removal

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: disable action buttons when disconnected, no error spam

- setActionButtonsEnabled() toggles .disabled class on all cleanup/screenshot
  buttons (both chat toolbar and inspector toolbar)
- Called with false in updateConnection when server URL is null
- Called with true when connection established
- runCleanup/runScreenshot silently return when disconnected instead of
  showing 'Not connected' error notifications
- CSS .disabled style: pointer-events:none, opacity:0.3, cursor:not-allowed

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: cleanup heuristics, button disabled state, overlay selectors

17 new tests:
- cleanup defaults to --all on empty args
- CLEANUP_SELECTORS overlays category (paywall, newsletter, interstitial)
- Major ad networks in selectors (doubleclick, taboola, criteo, etc.)
- Major consent frameworks (OneTrust, Cookiebot, TrustArc, Quantcast)
- !important override for inline styles
- Scroll unlock (body overflow:hidden)
- Blur removal (paywall content blur)
- Article truncation removal (max-height)
- Empty placeholder collapse
- gstack-ctrl indicator skip in sticky cleanup
- setActionButtonsEnabled function
- Buttons disabled when disconnected
- No error spam from cleanup/screenshot when disconnected
- CSS disabled styles for action buttons

* feat: LLM-based page cleanup — agent analyzes page semantically

Instead of brittle CSS selectors, the cleanup button now sends a prompt to
the sidebar agent (which IS an LLM). The agent:
1. Runs deterministic $B cleanup --all as a quick first pass
2. Takes a snapshot to see what's left
3. Analyzes the page semantically to identify remaining clutter
4. Removes elements intelligently, preserving site branding

This means cleanup works correctly on any site without site-specific selectors.
The LLM understands that "Your Daily Puzzles" is clutter, "ADVERTISEMENT" is
junk, but the SF Chronicle masthead should stay.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: aggressive cleanup heuristics + preserve top nav bar

Deterministic cleanup improvements (used as first pass before LLM analysis):
- New 'clutter' category: audio players, podcast widgets, sidebar puzzles/games,
  recirculation widgets (taboola, outbrain, nativo), cross-promotion banners
- Text-content detection: removes "ADVERTISEMENT", "Article continues below",
  "Sponsored", "Paid content" labels and their parent wrappers
- Sticky fix: preserves the topmost full-width element near viewport top (site
  nav bar) instead of hiding all sticky/fixed elements. Sorts by vertical
  position, preserves the first one that spans >80% viewport width.

Tests: clutter category, ad label removal, nav bar preservation logic.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: LLM-based cleanup architecture, deterministic heuristics, sticky nav

22 new tests covering:
- Cleanup button uses /sidebar-command (agent) not /command (deterministic)
- Cleanup prompt includes deterministic first pass + agent snapshot analysis
- Cleanup prompt lists specific clutter categories for agent guidance
- Cleanup prompt preserves site identity (masthead, headline, body, byline)
- Cleanup prompt instructs scroll unlock and $B eval removal
- Loading state management (async agent, setTimeout)
- Deterministic clutter: audio/podcast, games/puzzles, recirculation
- Ad label text patterns (ADVERTISEMENT, Sponsored, Article continues)
- Ad label parent wrapper hiding for small containers
- Sticky nav preservation (sort by position, first full-width near top)

* chore: gitignore top-level dist/ (GStack Browser build output)

* feat: GStack Browser icon — custom .icns replaces Chromium's Dock icon

- Generated 1024px icon: dark terminal window with amber prompt cursor
- Converted to .icns with all macOS sizes (16-1024px, 1x and 2x)
- build-app.sh copies icon into both the outer .app and bundled Chromium's
  Resources (Chromium's process owns the Dock icon, not the launcher)
- browser-manager.ts patches Chromium's icon at runtime for dev mode too
- Both the Dock and Cmd+Tab now show the GStack icon

banner copy button, and reconnect clipboard text.

* feat: left-align sidebar UI + extension-ready event for welcome page

- Left-align all sidebar text (chat welcome, loading, empty states,
  notifications, inspector empty, session placeholder)
- Dispatch 'gstack-extension-ready' CustomEvent from content.js so
  the welcome page can detect when the sidebar is active

* chore: add GStack Browser TODOs — CDP stealth patches + Chromium fork

P1: rebrowser-style postinstall patcher for Playwright 1.58.2 (suppress
Runtime.enable, addBinding context discovery, 6 files, ~200 lines).
P2: long-term Chromium fork for permanent stealth + native sidebar.

* chore: regenerate open-gstack-browser/SKILL.md from template

Fix timeline skill name (connect-chrome → open-gstack-browser) and
preamble formatting from merge with main's updated template.

* feat: welcome page served from browse server on headed launch

- Add /welcome endpoint to server.ts, serves welcome.html
- Navigate to /welcome after server starts (not during launchHeaded,
  which runs before the server is listening)
- welcome.html bundled in browse/src/ for portability

* feat: auto-open sidebar on every browser launch, not just first install

- Add top-level setTimeout in background.js that fires on every service
  worker startup (onInstalled only fires on install/update)
- Remove misaligned arrow from welcome page, replace with text fallback
  that hides when extension content script fires gstack-extension-ready

* fix: sidebar auto-open retry with backoff + welcome page tests

- Replace single-attempt sidePanel.open() with autoOpenSidePanel() that
  retries up to 5 times with 500ms-5000ms backoff

- Remove misaligned arrow from welcome page, replace with text fallback
- Add 12 tests: welcome page structure, /welcome endpoint, headed launch
  navigation timing, sidebar auto-open retry logic, extension-ready event

* feat: reload button in sidebar footer

Adds a "reload" button next to "debug" and "clear" in the sidebar
footer. Calls location.reload() to fully refresh the side panel,
re-run connection logic, and clear stale state.

* feat: right-pointing arrow hint for sidebar on welcome page

Replace invisible text fallback with visible amber bubble + animated
right arrow (→) pointing toward where the sidebar opens. Always correct
regardless of window size (unlike the old up arrow at toolbar chrome).

* fix: sidebar auth race — pass token in getPort response

The sidebar called tryConnect() → getPort → got {port, connected} but
NO token. All subsequent requests (SSE, chat poll) failed with 401.
The token only arrived later via the health broadcast, but by then
the SSE connection was already broken.

Fix: include authToken in the getPort response so the sidebar has
the token from its very first connection attempt.

* feat: sidebar debug visibility + auth race tests

- Show attempt count in loading screen ("Connecting... attempt 3")
- After 5 failed attempts, show debug details (port, connected, token)
  so stuck users can see exactly what's failing
- Add 4 tests: getPort includes token, tryConnect uses token,
  dead state exists with MAX_RECONNECT_ATTEMPTS, reconnectAttempts visible

* fix: startup health check retries every 1s instead of 10s

Root cause: extension service worker starts before Bun.serve() is
listening. First checkHealth() fails, next attempt is 10 seconds
later. User stares at "Connecting..." for 10 seconds.

Fix: retry every 1s for up to 15 attempts on startup, then switch
to 10s polling once connected (or after 15s gives up). Sidebar
should connect within 1-2 seconds of server becoming available.

3 new tests verify the fast-retry → slow-poll transition.

* feat: detailed step-by-step status in sidebar loading screen

Replace useless "Connecting..." with real-time debug info:
- "Looking for browse server... (attempt N)"
- Shows port, server responding status, token status
- Shows chrome.runtime errors if extension messaging fails
- Tells user to run /open-gstack-browser if server not found

* fix: sidebar connects directly to /health instead of waiting for background

Root cause: sidepanel asked background "are you connected?" but background's
health check hadn't succeeded yet (1-10s gap). Sidepanel waited forever.

Fix: when background says not connected, sidepanel hits /health directly
with fetch(). Gets the token from the response. Bypasses background
entirely for initial connection. Shows step-by-step debug info:
"Checking server directly... port: 34567 / Trying GET /health..."

* fix: suppress fake "session ended" and timeout errors in sidebar

Two issues making the sidebar look broken when it's actually working:
1. "Timed out after 300s" error displayed after agent_done — this is a
   cleanup timer, not a real error. Now suppressed when no active session.
2. "(session ended)" text appended on every idle poll — removed entirely.
   The thinking spinner is cleaned up silently instead.

* fix: sidebar agent passes BROWSE_PORT to child claude

Ensures the child claude process connects to the existing headed
browse server (port 34567) instead of spawning a new headless one.
Without this, sidebar chat commands run in an invisible browser.

* feat: BROWSE_NO_AUTOSTART prevents sidebar from spawning headless browser

When set, the browse CLI refuses to start a new server and exits with
a clear error: "Server not available, run /open-gstack-browser to restart."
The sidebar agent sets this so users never get an invisible headless
browser when the headed one is closed.

* test: BROWSE_NO_AUTOSTART guard in CLI + sidebar-agent env vars

5 tests: CLI checks env var before starting server, shows actionable
error, sidebar-agent sets the flag + BROWSE_PORT, guard runs before
lock acquisition to prevent stale lock files.

* fix: stale auth token causes Unauthorized + invisible error text

background.js checkHealth() never refreshed authToken from /health responses,
so when the browse server restarted with a new token, all sidebar-command
requests got 401 Unauthorized forever.

Also: error placeholder text was #3f3f46 on #0C0C0C (nearly invisible).
Now shows in red to match the error border.

* fix: replace 40+ silent catch blocks with debug logging

Every empty catch {} in sidepanel.js, sidebar-agent.ts now logs with
[gstack sidebar] or [sidebar-agent] prefix. Chat poll 401s, stop agent,
tab poll, clear chat, SSE parse, refs fetch, stream JSON parse, queue
read/parse, process kill — all now visible in console.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: noisy debug logging + auto model routing in browse server

Server-side silent catch blocks (22 instances) now log with [browse] prefix:
chat persistence, session save/load, agent kill, tab pin/restore, welcome
page, buffer flush, worktree cleanup, lock files, SSE streams.

Also adds pickSidebarModel() — routes sidebar messages to sonnet for
navigation/interaction (click, goto, fill, screenshot) and opus for
analysis/comprehension (summarize, describe, find bugs). Sonnet is
~4x faster for action commands with zero quality difference.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: update sidebar tests for model router + longer stopAgent slice

- stopAgent slice 800→1000 to accommodate added error logging lines
- Replace hardcoded opus assertion with model router assertions

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: sidebar arrow hint stays visible until sidebar actually opens

Previously the welcome page arrow hid immediately when the extension's
content script loaded — but extension loaded ≠ sidebar open. Now the
signal flow is: sidepanel connects → tells background.js → relays to
content script → dispatches gstack-extension-ready → arrow hides.

Adds welcome-page.test.ts: 14 tests verifying arrow, branding, feature
cards, dark theme, and auto-hide behavior via real HTTP server.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: arrow hide signal chain (4-step) + stale session-ended assertion

8 new tests verify the sidebarOpened → background → content → welcome
signal chain. Updates stale "(session ended)" test that checked for
text removed in a prior commit.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: preserve optimistic UI during tab switch on first message

When the user sends a message and the server assigns it to a new tab
(because Chrome's active tab changed), switchChatTab() was blowing away
the optimistic user bubble and thinking dots with a welcome screen.
Now preserves the current DOM if we're mid-send with a thinking indicator.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: sidebar message flow architecture doc + CLAUDE.md pointer

SIDEBAR_MESSAGE_FLOW.md documents the full init timeline, message flow
(user types → claude responds), auth token chain, arrow hint signal
chain, model routing, tab concurrency, and known failure modes.

CLAUDE.md now tells you to read it before touching sidebar files.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: sidebar chat resets idle timer + shutdown kills sidebar-agent

Two fixes for the "browser died while chatting" problem:

1. /sidebar-command now calls resetIdleTimer(). Previously only CLI
   commands reset it, so the server would shut down after 30 min even
   while the user was actively chatting in the sidebar.

2. shutdown() now pkills the sidebar-agent daemon. Previously the agent
   survived server shutdown, kept polling a dead server, and spawned
   confused claude processes that auto-started headless browsers.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: disable idle timeout in headed mode — browser lives until closed

The 30-minute idle timeout only applies to headless mode now. In headed
mode the user is looking at the Chrome window, so auto-shutdown is wrong.
The browser stays alive until explicit disconnect or window close.

* feat: cookies button in sidebar footer opens cookie picker

One-click cookie import from the sidebar. Navigates the headed browser
to /cookie-picker where you can select which domains to import from
your real Chrome profile.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: update project documentation for GStack Browser improvements

README.md: updated Real browser mode and sidebar agent sections with
model routing, cookie import button, no idle timeout in headed mode.
Updated skill table entries for /browse and /open-gstack-browser.

docs/skills.md: updated /open-gstack-browser deep dive with model
routing and cookie import details.

GSTACK_BROWSER_V0.md: added 6 new SHIPPED items to implementation
status table (model routing, debug logging, idle timeout, cookie
button, arrow hint, architecture doc).

TODOS.md: marked "Sidebar agent Write tool + error visibility" as
SHIPPED. Added new P2 TODO for direct API calls to eliminate
claude -p startup tax.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: add Claude Code terminal example to welcome page TRY IT NOW

Fifth example shows the parent agent workflow: navigate, extract CSS,
write to file. The other four are all sidebar-only. This one shows
co-presence — the Claude Code session that launched the browser can
also control it directly.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: hide internal tool-result file reads from sidebar activity

Claude reads its own ~/.claude/projects/.../tool-results/ files as
internal plumbing. These showed up as long unreadable paths in the
sidebar. Now: describeToolCall returns empty for tool-result reads,
and the sidebar skips rendering tool_use entries with no description.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: collapse tool calls into "See reasoning" disclosure on completion

While the agent is working, tool calls stream live so you can watch
progress. When the agent finishes, all tool calls collapse into a
"See reasoning (N steps)" disclosure. Click to expand and see what
the agent did. The final text answer stays visible.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: 17 new tests for recent sidebar fixes

Covers: tool-result file filtering, empty tool_use skip, reasoning
disclosure collapse, idle timeout headed mode bypass, sidebar-command
idle reset, shutdown sidebar-agent kill, cookie button, and model
routing analysis-before-action priority.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: move cookies button to quick actions toolbar

Cookies now sits next to Cleanup and Screenshot as a primary action
button (🍪 Cookies) instead of buried in the footer. Same behavior,
more discoverable.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: add instructional text to cookie picker page

"Select the domains of cookies you want to import to GStack Browser.
You'll be able to browse those sites with the same login as your
other browser."

Also fixes stale test that expected hardcoded '--model', 'opus'.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: 6-card welcome page with cookie import + dual-agent cards

3x2 grid layout (was 2x2). New cards: "Import your cookies" (click
🍪 Cookies to import login sessions from Chrome/Arc/Brave) and
"Or use your main agent" (your Claude Code terminal also controls
this browser). Responsive: 3 cols > 2 cols > 1 col.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: move sidebar arrow hint to top-right instead of vertically centered

The arrow was centered vertically which put it behind the feature cards.
Now positioned at top: 80px where there's open space and it's more visible.

Garry TanandClaude Opus 4.6 a1a933614c feat: sidebar CSS inspector + per-tab agents (v0.13.9.0) (#650)
* feat: CDP inspector module — persistent sessions, CSS cascade, style modification

New browse/src/cdp-inspector.ts with full CDP inspection engine:
- inspectElement() via CSS.getMatchedStylesForNode + DOM.getBoxModel
- modifyStyle() via CSS.setStyleTexts with headless page.evaluate fallback
- Persistent CDP session lifecycle (create, reuse, detach on nav, re-create)
- Specificity sorting, overridden property detection, UA rule filtering
- Modification history with undo support
- formatInspectorResult() for CLI output

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: browse server inspector endpoints + inspect/style/cleanup/prettyscreenshot CLI

Server endpoints: POST /inspector/pick, GET /inspector, POST /inspector/apply,
POST /inspector/reset, GET /inspector/history, GET /inspector/events (SSE).
CLI commands: inspect (CDP cascade), style (live CSS mod), cleanup (page clutter
removal), prettyscreenshot (clean screenshot pipeline).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: sidebar CSS inspector — element picker, box model, rule cascade, quick edit

Extension changes for the visual CSS inspector:
- inspector.js: element picker with hover highlight, CSS selector generation,
  basic mode fallback (getComputedStyle + CSSOM), page alteration handlers
- inspector.css: picker overlay styles (blue highlight + tooltip)
- background.js: inspector message routing (picker <-> server <-> sidepanel)
- sidepanel: Inspector tab with box model viz (gstack palette), matched rules
  with specificity badges, computed styles, click-to-edit quick edit,
  Send to Agent/Code button, empty/loading/error states

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: auto-track user-created tabs and handle tab close

browser-manager.ts changes:
- context.on('page') listener: automatically tracks tabs opened by the user
  (Cmd+T, right-click open in new tab, window.open). Previously only
  programmatic newTab() was tracked, so user tabs were invisible.
- page.on('close') handler in wirePageEvents: removes closed tabs from the
  pages map and switches activeTabId to the last remaining tab.
- syncActiveTabByUrl: match Chrome extension's active tab URL to the correct
  Playwright page for accurate tab identity.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: per-tab agent isolation via BROWSE_TAB environment variable

Prevents parallel sidebar agents from interfering with each other's tab context.

Three-layer fix:
- sidebar-agent.ts: passes BROWSE_TAB=<tabId> env var to each claude process,
  per-tab processing set allows concurrent agents across tabs
- cli.ts: reads process.env.BROWSE_TAB and includes tabId in command request body
- server.ts: handleCommand() temporarily switches activeTabId when tabId is present,
  restores after command completes (safe: Bun event loop is single-threaded)

Also: per-tab agent state (TabAgentState map), per-tab message queuing,
per-tab chat buffers, verbose streaming narration, stop button endpoint.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: sidebar per-tab chat context, tab bar sync, stop button, UX polish

Extension changes:
- sidepanel.js: per-tab chat history (tabChatHistories map), switchChatTab()
  swaps entire chat view, browserTabActivated handler for instant tab sync,
  stop button wired to /sidebar-agent/stop, pollTabs renders tab bar
- sidepanel.html: updated banner text ("Browser co-pilot"), stop button markup,
  input placeholder "Ask about this page..."
- sidepanel.css: tab bar styles, stop button styles, loading state fixes
- background.js: chrome.tabs.onActivated sends browserTabActivated to sidepanel
  with tab URL for instant tab switch detection

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: per-tab isolation, BROWSE_TAB pinning, tab tracking, sidebar UX

sidebar-agent.test.ts (new tests):
- BROWSE_TAB env var passed to claude process
- CLI reads BROWSE_TAB and sends tabId in body
- handleCommand accepts tabId, saves/restores activeTabId
- Tab pinning only activates when tabId provided
- Per-tab agent state, queue, concurrency
- processingTabs set for parallel agents

sidebar-ux.test.ts (new tests):
- context.on('page') tracks user-created tabs
- page.on('close') removes tabs from pages map
- Tab isolation uses BROWSE_TAB not system prompt hack
- Per-tab chat context in sidepanel
- Tab bar rendering, stop button, banner text

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: resolve merge conflicts — keep security defenses + per-tab isolation

Merged main's security improvements (XML escaping, prompt injection defense,
allowed commands whitelist, --model opus, Write tool, stderr capture) with
our branch's per-tab isolation (BROWSE_TAB env var, processingTabs set,
no --resume). Updated test expectations for expanded system prompt.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.13.9.0)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: add inspector message types to background.js allowlist

Pre-existing bug found by Codex: ALLOWED_TYPES in background.js was missing
all inspector message types (startInspector, stopInspector, elementPicked,
pickerCancelled, applyStyle, toggleClass, injectCSS, resetAll, inspectResult).
Messages were silently rejected, making the inspector broken on ALL pages.

Also: separate executeScript and insertCSS into individual try blocks in
injectInspector(), store inspectorMode for routing, and add content.js
fallback when script injection fails (CSP, chrome:// pages).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: basic element picker in content.js for CSP-restricted pages

When inspector.js can't be injected (CSP, chrome:// pages), content.js
provides a basic picker using getComputedStyle + CSSOM:
- startBasicPicker/stopBasicPicker message handlers
- captureBasicData() with ~30 key CSS properties, box model, matched rules
- Hover highlight with outline save/restore (never leaves artifacts)
- Click uses e.target directly (no re-querying by selector)
- Sends inspectResult with mode:'basic' for sidebar rendering
- Escape key cancels picker and restores outlines

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: cleanup + screenshot buttons in sidebar inspector toolbar

Two action buttons in the inspector toolbar:
- Cleanup (🧹): POSTs cleanup --all to server, shows spinner, chat
  notification on success, resets inspector state (element may be removed)
- Screenshot (📸): POSTs screenshot to server, shows spinner, chat
  notification with saved file path

Shared infrastructure:
- .inspector-action-btn CSS with loading spinner via ::after pseudo-element
- chat-notification type in addChatEntry() for system messages
- package.json version bump to 0.13.9.0

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: inspector allowlist, CSP fallback, cleanup/screenshot buttons

16 new tests in sidebar-ux.test.ts:
- Inspector message allowlist includes all inspector types
- content.js basic picker (startBasicPicker, captureBasicData, CSSOM,
  outline save/restore, inspectResult with mode basic, Escape cleanup)
- background.js CSP fallback (separate try blocks, inspectorMode, fallback)
- Cleanup button (POST /command, inspector reset after success)
- Screenshot button (POST /command, notification rendering)
- Chat notification type and CSS styles

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: update project documentation for v0.13.9.0

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: cleanup + screenshot buttons in chat toolbar (not just inspector)

Quick actions toolbar (🧹 Cleanup, 📸 Screenshot) now appears above the chat
input, always visible. Both inspector and chat buttons share runCleanup() and
runScreenshot() helper functions. Clicking either set shows loading state on
both simultaneously.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: chat toolbar buttons, shared helpers, quick-action-btn styles

Tests that chat toolbar exists (chat-cleanup-btn, chat-screenshot-btn,
quick-actions container), CSS styles (.quick-action-btn, .quick-action-btn.loading),
shared runCleanup/runScreenshot helper functions, and cleanup inspector reset.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: aggressive cleanup heuristics — overlays, scroll unlock, blur removal

Massively expanded CLEANUP_SELECTORS with patterns from uBlock Origin and
Readability.js research:
- ads: 30+ selectors (Google, Amazon, Outbrain, Taboola, Criteo, etc.)
- cookies: OneTrust, Cookiebot, TrustArc, Quantcast + generic patterns
- overlays (NEW): paywalls, newsletter popups, interstitials, push prompts,
  app download banners, survey modals
- social: follow prompts, share tools
- Cleanup now defaults to --all when no args (sidebar button fix)
- Uses !important on all display:none (overrides inline styles)
- Unlocks body/html scroll (overflow:hidden from modal lockout)
- Removes blur/filter effects (paywall content blur)
- Removes max-height truncation (article teaser truncation)
- Collapses empty ad placeholder whitespace (empty divs after ad removal)
- Skips gstack-ctrl indicator in sticky removal

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: disable action buttons when disconnected, no error spam

- setActionButtonsEnabled() toggles .disabled class on all cleanup/screenshot
  buttons (both chat toolbar and inspector toolbar)
- Called with false in updateConnection when server URL is null
- Called with true when connection established
- runCleanup/runScreenshot silently return when disconnected instead of
  showing 'Not connected' error notifications
- CSS .disabled style: pointer-events:none, opacity:0.3, cursor:not-allowed

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: cleanup heuristics, button disabled state, overlay selectors

17 new tests:
- cleanup defaults to --all on empty args
- CLEANUP_SELECTORS overlays category (paywall, newsletter, interstitial)
- Major ad networks in selectors (doubleclick, taboola, criteo, etc.)
- Major consent frameworks (OneTrust, Cookiebot, TrustArc, Quantcast)
- !important override for inline styles
- Scroll unlock (body overflow:hidden)
- Blur removal (paywall content blur)
- Article truncation removal (max-height)
- Empty placeholder collapse
- gstack-ctrl indicator skip in sticky cleanup
- setActionButtonsEnabled function
- Buttons disabled when disconnected
- No error spam from cleanup/screenshot when disconnected
- CSS disabled styles for action buttons

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: LLM-based page cleanup — agent analyzes page semantically

Instead of brittle CSS selectors, the cleanup button now sends a prompt to
the sidebar agent (which IS an LLM). The agent:
1. Runs deterministic $B cleanup --all as a quick first pass
2. Takes a snapshot to see what's left
3. Analyzes the page semantically to identify remaining clutter
4. Removes elements intelligently, preserving site branding

This means cleanup works correctly on any site without site-specific selectors.
The LLM understands that "Your Daily Puzzles" is clutter, "ADVERTISEMENT" is
junk, but the SF Chronicle masthead should stay.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: aggressive cleanup heuristics + preserve top nav bar

Deterministic cleanup improvements (used as first pass before LLM analysis):
- New 'clutter' category: audio players, podcast widgets, sidebar puzzles/games,
  recirculation widgets (taboola, outbrain, nativo), cross-promotion banners
- Text-content detection: removes "ADVERTISEMENT", "Article continues below",
  "Sponsored", "Paid content" labels and their parent wrappers
- Sticky fix: preserves the topmost full-width element near viewport top (site
  nav bar) instead of hiding all sticky/fixed elements. Sorts by vertical
  position, preserves the first one that spans >80% viewport width.

Tests: clutter category, ad label removal, nav bar preservation logic.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: LLM-based cleanup architecture, deterministic heuristics, sticky nav

22 new tests covering:
- Cleanup button uses /sidebar-command (agent) not /command (deterministic)
- Cleanup prompt includes deterministic first pass + agent snapshot analysis
- Cleanup prompt lists specific clutter categories for agent guidance
- Cleanup prompt preserves site identity (masthead, headline, body, byline)
- Cleanup prompt instructs scroll unlock and $B eval removal
- Loading state management (async agent, setTimeout)
- Deterministic clutter: audio/podcast, games/puzzles, recirculation
- Ad label text patterns (ADVERTISEMENT, Sponsored, Article continues)
- Ad label parent wrapper hiding for small containers
- Sticky nav preservation (sort by position, first full-width near top)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: prevent repeat chat message rendering on reconnect/replay

Root cause: server persists chat to disk (chat.jsonl) and replays on restart.
Client had no dedup, so every reconnect re-rendered the entire history.
Messages from an old HN session would repeat endlessly on the SF Chronicle tab.

Fix: renderedEntryIds Set tracks which entry IDs have been rendered. addChatEntry
skips entries already in the set. Entries without an id (local notifications)
bypass the check. Clear chat resets the set.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: agent stops when done, no focus stealing, opus for prompt injection safety

Three fixes for sidebar agent UX:
- System prompt: "Be CONCISE. STOP as soon as the task is done. Do NOT keep
  exploring or doing bonus work." Prevents agent from endlessly taking
  screenshots and highlighting elements after answering the question.
- switchTab(id, opts): new bringToFront option. Internal tab pinning
  (BROWSE_TAB) uses bringToFront: false so agent commands never steal
  window focus from the user's active app.
- Keep opus model (not sonnet) for prompt injection resistance on untrusted
  web pages. Remove Write from allowedTools (agent only needs Bash for $B).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: agent conciseness, focus stealing, opus model, switchTab opts

Tests for the three UX fixes:
- System prompt contains STOP/CONCISE/Do NOT keep exploring
- sidebar agent uses opus (not sonnet) for prompt injection resistance
- switchTab has bringToFront option, defaults to true (opt-out)
- handleCommand tab pinning uses bringToFront: false (no focus steal)
- Updated stale tests: switchTab signature, allowedTools excludes Write,
  narration -> conciseness, tab pinning restore calls

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: sidebar CSS interaction E2E — HN comment highlight round-trip

New E2E test (periodic tier, ~$2/run) that exercises the full sidebar
agent pipeline with CSS interaction:
1. Agent navigates to Hacker News
2. Clicks into the top story's comments
3. Reads comments and identifies the most insightful one
4. Highlights it with a 4px solid orange outline via style injection

Tests: navigation, snapshot, text reading, LLM judgment, CSS modification.
Requires real browser + real Claude (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: sidebar CSS E2E test — correct idle timeout (ms not s), pipe stdio

Root cause of test failure: BROWSE_IDLE_TIMEOUT is in milliseconds, not
seconds. '600' = 0.6 seconds, server died immediately after health check.
Fixed to '600000' (10 minutes).

Also: use 'pipe' stdio instead of file descriptors (closing fds kills child
on macOS/bun), catch ConnectionRefused on poll retry, 4 min poll timeout
for the multi-step opus task.

Test passes: agent navigates to HN, reads comments, identifies most
insightful one, highlights it with orange CSS, stops. 114s, $0.00.
