5 people	94993f7401	v1.61.0.0 fix wave: guards failing open / silent failures (9 fixes, 4 community PRs absorbed) (#2472) ... * fix(careful): warn on chained rm even when the last target is safe The safe-exception block whitelisted rm -rf of build artifacts by extracting targets with a single greedy match (.*rm ...), which only ever inspects the LAST rm in the command. A chain like 'rm -rf /; rm -rf node_modules' was therefore judged solely by its trailing safe target and allowed without warning, waving through the destructive 'rm -rf /'. Gate the shortcut to single rm invocations: when any shell separator (; | & newline, incl. JSON-escaped \n/\r from the grep extraction path) is present, fall through to the destructive-pattern check, which warns on any recursive rm. Single-command artifact cleanups still allow. Adds 3 regression tests covering semicolon and && chains in both orders. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * harden(careful): substitution separators + capital -R recursive flag (#2039) Two residual fail-opens in the same guard PR #2040 hardened, both verified by executing the script pre-fix: - rm -rf $(./wipe-all)/node_modules silently allowed: the substitution token ends in a whitelisted suffix and the safe-exception early exit skipped ALL downstream checks. $( and backtick now count as chain separators; plain $VAR expansion stays allowed. - rm -R / silently allowed: both greps required a lowercase r in the flag cluster; capital -R is the documented BSD/macOS recursive flag. Both greps now match -[a-zA-Z]*[rR]. Six new tests: substitution x2 -> ask, capital-R x2 -> ask, rm -Rf node_modules single-command -> still allowed, escaped-newline branch (existing code, previously untested), and a pinned deliberate FP (cd app && rm -rf node_modules -> ask) documenting the fail-closed direction on chains. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(context-restore): prefer the current branch's own checkpoint (#2052) All worktrees of a repo share one origin-derived slug, so they share one `~/.gstack/projects/<slug>/checkpoints/` dir. `/context-restore` loaded the newest checkpoint across the whole dir, so in one worktree it could silently restore a *sibling worktree's* newer checkpoint. Step 1 now orders candidates current-branch-first (read from each file's `branch:` frontmatter), keeping other branches as a fallback. A branch is checked out in at most one worktree, so this stops cross-worktree contamination while preserving Conductor cross-branch handoff: when the current branch has no checkpoint of its own, the full newest-first set is still used. - scan the 200 newest before partitioning so a current-branch checkpoint sitting below a burst of sibling saves is still found; output still capped at 20 - non-git / detached HEAD / branchless legacy saves fall back to the old newest-first behavior (back-compat) - +5 regression tests in context-save-hardening.test.ts (the #2052 bug case fails on the old pipeline); regenerated SKILL.md + proactive-suggestions.json Fixes #2052 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gbrain): pass --confirm-destructive on drift re-register (#1985) ensureSourceRegistered() handles match-but-different-path by removing the old source then re-adding it at the new path. The remove was issued as `gbrain sources remove <id> --yes`, but gbrain >= 0.42 gates `sources remove` behind `--confirm-destructive` (`--yes` alone no longer suppresses the data-loss prompt). The remove therefore fails with "To proceed, pass --confirm-destructive", which ensureSourceRegistered surfaces as "source registration failed" — aborting the entire /sync-gbrain code stage for any already-registered source whose path has drifted. The memory and brain-sync stages still pass, so the code index silently stops refreshing. The orchestrator's own safeSourcesRemove() already passes --confirm-destructive; this brings the lib helper in line with that convention. Keeps --yes for older gbrain. Tests: extend the fake gbrain shim in gbrain-sources.test.ts to simulate the gbrain >= 0.42 guard (remove without --confirm-destructive exits 1), update the drift re-register assertion, and add a regression test that proves the drift path no longer throws. Both fail on main with the exact "To proceed, pass --confirm-destructive" error and pass with the fix. Fixes #1985 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * harden(gbrain-sources): route drift remove through #1734 guards + realpath drift check Absorbing #2031 un-blocked a destructive remove that bypassed the #1734 data-loss guards: ensureSourceRegistered's drift path issued `gbrain sources remove` directly, without the detectAutopilot + decideSourceRemove checks every other remove routes through via safeSourcesRemove. gbrain >= 0.42's own prompt was accidentally blocking that path; with --confirm-destructive passed it is live again. - Drift remove now refuses LOUDLY (throws, actionable message) while an autopilot is active or when decideSourceRemove disallows; a silent changed=false would hide the drifted registration. - decideSourceRemove's extraArgs (--keep-storage when supported) propagate to the remove call, matching safeSourcesRemove. - Drift is realpath-normalized before being declared: a symlink alias of the same directory (macOS /tmp -> /private/tmp) is a match, not drift — the probable cause of #1985's reporter hitting the remove on an unmoved repo. - Drift fires a loud stderr line (old -> new path); perpetual drift in logs is the trigger for promoting #1985's reindex-in-place design. Tests: autopilot-active refusal (no remove in call log), fail-closed refusal on unreadable sources list, --keep-storage propagation, symlink-alias no-drift; existing drift tests pin the guard probes so a live autopilot on the dev machine can't flip them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(developer-profile): exclude mode:resources rows from SESSION_COUNT, TIER, NUDGE_ELIGIBLE (#2067) Every /office-hours run appends a mode:"resources" bookkeeping row alongside the real session row, so --read double-counted sessions (~2x): tiers promoted early and the builder-to-founder nudge armed prematurely. The file already filtered resources rows for LAST_*/CROSS_PROJECT; the same realSessions filter now feeds SESSION_COUNT/TIER, and the nudge predicate is the faithful allowlist (mode === 'builder') so a future mode #4 fails closed instead of re-opening this bug. 8 regression tests: count vs resources noise, tier boundaries both sides, nudge false-with-noise / true-at-3-builders, cross-project trailing row. Absorbed from PR #1991 by @mvann (fix + tests commits; the PR's version-bump commit is superseded by this wave's consolidated release commit). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(hooks): passThrough() two-branch contract — never emit permissionDecision:'defer' (#2035, #2006) Every AskUserQuestion died with "Tool result missing due to internal error" on current Claude Code builds (Desktop 1.14271.0, CC 2.1.177). Root cause: the question-preference-hook emitted permissionDecision:'defer' on every pass-through path. 'defer' is a real PreToolUse value, but since CC v2.1.89 its semantics are "pause this tool call for external resumption" (headless resume) — never "abstain". Interactive sessions have nothing to resume the paused call, so the tool orphaned. Pre-2.1.89 builds ignored the unknown value, which is why the hook worked when it shipped and broke later. The fix is the two-branch pass-through contract: - no context -> exit 0 with EXACTLY empty stdout - memory nuggets present -> hookSpecificOutput with hookEventName + additionalContext ONLY (the documented shape; plan-tune Layer 8 memory injection ships through this branch and keeps working) defer() is renamed passThrough() so the function says what it does, and docs/spikes/claude-code-hook-mutation.md's protocol contract (cited by the hook header) is corrected in the same commit — it taught '"defer" — let permission flow continue' and was the reintroduction vector. Test contract rewritten in the same commit (13 assertions across 3 files, verified fail-first against the unfixed hook): pass-through paths assert exact-empty stdout (a garbage/partial write cannot slip past an optional-chained parse), the nugget path asserts permissionDecision is ABSENT while additionalContext survives, and a new tripwire asserts no non-deny path ever puts the string "permissionDecision" on stdout. The deny (auto-decide) and Conductor prose-redirect paths are unchanged. Deployment: no migration needed — settings.json points at the absolute bash shim which execs the .ts live; /gstack-upgrade delivers the fix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(one-way-doors): unify credential noun net + wire it into the runtime (#2024) Library fix: revoke/reset/rotate now share ONE noun alternation (api key, token, secret, credential, access key, password) with optional plural s?. Pre-fix leaks: "reset my secret", "reset my access key", "revoke my secret" (mismatched per-verb lists) and every plural form ("rotate the credentials", "revoke all tokens" — \b(...)\b cannot match a trailing s). Runtime wiring — the regexes could never fire in production before: - gstack-question-preference --check gains --summary-stdin: the question text pipes via stdin (never argv — summaries carry quotes/newlines/shell metacharacters) and feeds isOneWayDoor alongside the id, so an ad-hoc destructive question with a stored never-ask preference now forces ASK_NORMALLY. Empty/absent stdin keeps exact id-only semantics. - question-preference-hook falls back to classifyQuestion(question text) when the registry lookup misses, so unregistered destructive questions pass through to a human instead of auto-deciding. - question-tuning resolver prose shows the piped form (SKILL.md regen lands in the wave's release commit). Tripwires (verified fail-first): full verbs x nouns x singular/plural matrix with the #2024 repro rows, benign-summary no-over-match rows, stdin transport survival (quotes/newlines), empty-stdin fail-safe, and hook fallback both directions (destructive -> pass-through, benign -> deny). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(design): loud integer-flag contract for --count/--retry/--timeout (#2032) design variants --count abc silently generated ZERO variants and exited 0: parseInt(NaN) flowed through Math.min into the generation loop bound. The same NaN class was live on the two sibling flags in the same file: --retry abc made generate() a silent no-op (attempt <= NaN never true, null output, exit 0) and --timeout abc killed the serve board ~immediately (setTimeout(NaN)). New design/src/flag-utils.ts: parseIntFlag (pure, unit-testable) + normalizeIntFlag (CLI wrapper). Contract matches the --viewports precedent (error loudly on nonsense — these commands spend real image-API money, a silent fixup hides typos from calling agents): undefined -> default; bare flag/empty/non-integer ("3.7" rejected, not truncated)/below-min -> exit 1 with usage hint; above-max -> clamp with stderr warning. --count normalizes at the variants() consumption site so programmatic callers are covered, with the ceiling derived from STYLE_VARIATIONS.length instead of a magic 7; the CLI passes the raw flag through (a pre-parseInt would truncate "3.7"). Tripwires live in test/design-flag-utils.test.ts — deliberately under test/, not design/test/, which is invisible to the bun test glob, TEST_ROOTS, and every workflow (wiring design/test/ into CI is a captured TODO). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gbrain): thin-client state — remote-MCP brains no longer classify as broken-config (#2051) A thin client (remote-HTTP MCP brain, no local engine by design) probed `gbrain sources list`, which gbrain's dispatch guard REFUSES on thin clients (exit 1, no recognized error string), so the classifier fell to its defensive broken-config default and every suppression gate silently hid brain-aware blocks from exactly the users on a shared team brain. New 'thin-client' state, detected PRE-probe from gbrain's own remote_mcp config marker via the existing gbrainConfigPath() helper (mirrors gbrain's isThinClient(); honors GBRAIN_HOME; zero network, immune to error-string drift), with a /thin[- ]client/ stderr backstop in the probe catch. Remote reachability is deliberately NOT probed by the classifier — that is the #1964 pathology; gbrain calls degrade gracefully at use time, and the detect JSON says so honestly (gbrain_thin_client: {probed: false}). The state is admitted at every suppression gate — gstack-gbrain-detect --is-ok (drives setup + gbrain-refresh), gen-skill-docs' detection override, gstack-config gbrain-refresh — while the sync stages (code/memory/dream) SKIP with an accurate reason: code indexing runs on the brain server, memory syncs via the remote brain's artifacts pull. The two consumer classes need opposite answers, which is why this is a distinct state and not a skip-the-probe special case. sync-gbrain Step 1.5 and setup-gbrain prose route thin-client to proceed, never into broken-config remediation. detectMcpMode secondary generalization: url-match against the config's remote_mcp.mcp_url (deterministic — gbrain mounts at the generic /mcp path) -> name pattern gbrain[-_]* -> stdio command token; gbrain_mcp_mode stays a 3-value enum. Tripwires: end-to-end --is-ok exits 0 on a thin-client fixture AND still exits 1 on broken-config (the gate didn't widen); pre-probe + stderr-fallback classifier paths; 4 detectMcpMode identification cases incl. a non-matching url that must NOT false-positive. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * release: v1.60.0.0 — regen SKILL.md, VERSION, CHANGELOG, TODOS follow-ups - Regenerate all SKILL.md from templates (question-tuning --summary-stdin prose from #2024, context-restore branch preference from PR #2054, sync-gbrain/setup-gbrain thin-client prose from #2051) + llms.txt. - VERSION + package.json -> 1.60.0.0 (bin/gstack-next-version, queue-aware: #1815 claims 1.59.0.0, #2213 claims 1.59.1.0). - CHANGELOG release summary + itemized entry crediting @jbetala7 (x3) and @mvann. - TODOS.md: three eng-review follow-ups (design/test CI wiring + documented pre-existing retry-after flake, /context-save worktree identity, gbrain reindex-in-place conditional on the new drift log). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(resolvers): compress --summary-stdin preamble prose to fit parity budget; re-bless ship goldens The v1.57.7.0 parity suite caps investigate's generated size at 1.09x baseline; the #2024 question-tuning prose (duplicated into every tier->=2 skill) tipped it to 1.092. Compressed to a single inline command + short pointer (the full rationale lives in bin/gstack-question-preference's header and the one-way-doors module docs). Ship goldens re-blessed against the final resolver text (conscious template-change acknowledgment, per the golden-file regression contract). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(e2e): office-hours-spec-review turn budget fits the carved skill layout (#2473) The test failed deterministically with error_max_turns at 9 turns on main and this branch alike (CI attempt logs + local main repro). Root cause from the failing transcript: the Spec Review Loop content is carved out of office-hours/SKILL.md into office-hours/sections/, so the agent needs discovery hops (grep SKILL.md -> ls sections/ -> read the section) before it can write — 8 tool turns + the closing text turn = 9 > the 8-turn budget, which predates the carve. Observed failures wrote a CORRECT summary on tool turn 8 and died on the closing turn. maxTurns 8 -> 12. Verified: PASS locally post-fix (7 turns this run — the extra headroom absorbs discovery-path nondeterminism). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(e2e): review-dashboard-via session budget survives runner contention (#2473) The test failed on CI (and its baseline run) with the timeout signature: 0 turns, $0.00, exactly 183s, 3/3 attempts — the spawned claude -p session never emitted a single stream event before the 180s inner timeout. The file's tests run concurrently on one runner; session startup queues behind sibling sessions, and this test had the tightest budget in the file (the 240s-budget tests in the same job passed). A clean local run takes 270s wall for 4 turns, confirming 180s was too tight even without contention. Inner timeout 180s -> 300s; outer bun timeout 240s -> 360s to keep headroom over the inner budget. Verified: PASS locally post-fix (4 turns, 270s). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(e2e): retro-base-branch session budget survives runner contention (#2473) Same class as review-dashboard-via, one test over in the same file: /retro is a long multi-step flow whose clean pass measures 225-239s — a coin flip against the 240s inner budget. First CI run passed at 225s; the rerun timed out at the 240s line on all 3 attempts (exitReason "timeout"); the local verification run passed at 239s, ONE second under the old cap. Inner timeout 240s -> 360s; outer bun timeout 300s -> 480s for headroom. Verified: PASS locally post-fix (17 turns, 239s).

3 people	9cc41b7163	v1.57.6.0 fix wave: 8 community bugs (4 security guards failing open) (#1911) ... * fix(ship): adversarial subagent no longer trips usage-policy denial on own security fixtures (#1899) The Claude adversarial subagent in /review and /ship was told to "think like an attacker" over the full diff. When the diff includes the repo's own security regression fixtures (real attack payloads, by design), reasoning adversarially over that material triggered Anthropic's real-time usage-policy safeguards and the subagent call was denied — blocking the review. Fix at the prompt's source of truth (scripts/resolvers/review.ts {{ADVERSARIAL_STEP}}): - Authorized-defensive-testing framing: declares this is the maintainer's own repo and that attack-pattern strings inside test/fixture paths are the project's own regression corpus to analyze, not material to expand on. - Fixture summary-mode diff: full content for non-fixture source, --stat/--name-status for test/fixture files, so raw exploit bytes aren't fed into adversarial reasoning. The subagent must state fixtures were reviewed in summary mode (no silent coverage cut). Reported by @bmajewski. Regenerated review/SKILL.md + ship/sections/adversarial.md. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(redact): detect modern sk-proj-/sk-svcacct-/sk-admin- OpenAI keys (#1868) openai.key (HIGH/block) used /\b(sk-(?:proj-)?[A-Za-z0-9]{32,})\b/, which stops at the first - or _ in the body. Modern OpenAI project/service-account/admin keys use base64url bodies containing - and _, so they never reached the 32-char run and produced ZERO findings — a HIGH credential failing open through /spec, /ship, /cso, and /document-*. Replace with explicit alternation, bare vs prefixed (not a globally-optional prefix, which would match malformed sk--... or separator-less sk-projabc...): sk-{proj,svcacct,admin}- + [A-Za-z0-9_-]{20,} | sk-[A-Za-z0-9]{32,} (legacy) Tests: the three previously-missed shapes now block; FP guards pin that hyphenated prose and malformed sk- strings do NOT match (HIGH tier blocks, so calibration matters). Reported by @jbetala7. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(redact): reject malformed --max-bytes instead of silently disabling the size guard (#1824) The oversize check is designed to fail CLOSED, but a malformed --max-bytes turned it fail-OPEN. bin/gstack-redact did parseInt(maxBytes,10) and passed it straight through; parseInt("foo") is NaN. The engine guarded with `opts.maxBytes ?? DEFAULT`, and ?? does not catch NaN, so `byteLen > NaN` was always false and the fail-closed block never fired. A negative value made `byteLen > -5` always true, blocking everything. Two layers: - bin/gstack-redact validates the RAW string (parseInt accepts "123abc"->123, "1.5"->1): require /^\d+$/ and > 0, else exit 1 with a clear message. - lib/redact-engine.ts hardens the fallback to Number.isFinite && > 0 else the default cap — a guardrail so the engine never silently runs uncapped even if a bad value reaches it directly. Tests: NaN and negative both fall back to the default cap (oversize still blocks); CLI rejects garbage/negative with exit 1. Reported by @jbetala7. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(learnings): cross-project trust gate is an allowlist, not a denylist (#1745) gstack-learnings-search --cross-project is documented as an allowlist — foreign learnings load only when user-stated/trusted, to stop one project's AI-generated learnings from injecting into another project's reviews. It was implemented as a denylist: `if (isCrossProject && e.trusted === false) continue`. Any row where `trusted` is missing/undefined (legacy rows from before the field existed, hand-edited rows, rows from other tools) passed `undefined === false` → false → admitted. Those rows leaked across projects. Flip to `e.trusted !== true`. Test: a foreign row with no `trusted` field is now excluded (true still included, false still excluded). Reported by @jbetala7. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(safety): one-way-door classifier catches "rotate ... password" (#1839) scripts/one-way-doors.ts is the secondary safety net for ad-hoc AskUserQuestion ids with no registry entry; a false negative auto-approves a destructive op. The revoke and reset credential patterns both include `password`, but the rotate pattern omitted it, so the most common phrasing ("rotate the database password") classified as a reversible two-way question. Add `password` to the rotate alternation so all three verbs are parallel. New test covers rotate+password, the revoke/reset/rotate parallel, and rotate's other nouns. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(review): route .mjs/.cjs/.mts/.cts changes to the backend reviewer (#1810) gstack-diff-scope backend detection matched only *.ts|*.js. Modern Node ships backend code as ESM (.mjs) / CommonJS (.cjs) and explicit-module TS (.mts/.cts); none matched any category, so a PR touching only those files reported no backend scope and the Review Army skipped the backend reviewer. Add the four module extensions to the backend case. Test covers all four. Reported by @jbetala7. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(brain-cache): loadMeta tolerates malformed _meta.json without crashing (#1879) loadMeta returned the parsed JSON verbatim. A valid JSON file that lacked the last_refresh map made three consumers (isStale, cmdInvalidate, refreshEntity) throw a TypeError dereferencing meta.last_refresh — the sibling last_attempt was already guarded, last_refresh wasn't. Fix in loadMeta: - Shape-guard: JSON.parse can return null/array/string/number; non-object → fresh meta. - Normalize ONLY the dereferenced maps (last_refresh, last_attempt). - Deliberately do NOT default schema_version/endpoint_hash. Leaving them absent makes schemaVersionMismatch()/endpointSwitched() force a rebuild (missing identity = mismatch = safe); defaulting them would suppress cache invalidation and trust a stale file of unknown provenance. Tests: missing last_refresh no longer throws; null/array/primitive treated as cold; missing schema_version forces rebuild instead of a trusted warm hit. Reported by @jbetala7. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(skills): anchor guard/freeze/careful hook paths so they survive CC 2.1.162 (#1871) The PreToolUse frontmatter hooks for guard, freeze, and careful invoked `bash ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/.../check-*.sh`. Claude Code 2.1.162 no longer populates ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR} in the skill-hook execution env, so it expanded to empty and every Edit/Write/Bash ran `bash /...` and errored — breaking the safety skills entirely. Frontmatter hooks run before any skill-body bash, so no runtime-resolved variable can fix this; the command must be a path that's valid at hook time. Anchor to the installed checkout: $HOME/.claude/skills/gstack/{careful,freeze}/bin/check-*.sh, where the scripts actually live. ($HOME is expanded by the hook shell.) Reported by @omariani-howdy. Regenerated the three SKILL.md from templates.

VERSION + package.json to 1.58.0.0 (MINOR — coordinated multi-file safety fixes on top of main's 1.57.3.0). #1882 filed as the top TODOS.md item (scoped out of this wave per decision; host-config change touching all 52 skills, distinct from the #1871 hook fix). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(learnings): strip backticks from #1745 comment inside the bun -e block The #1745 trust-gate fix added an explanatory comment containing backticks (`=== false`) and the JS block is a double-quoted `bun -e "..."` bash string, so bash command-substituted the backtick contents on every cross-project search — polluting stderr with "command not found" and leaving a latent shell-injection / source-corruption surface in a security gate. Caught by the wave's own adversarial review (#1899 framing working as intended). Reworded the comments to avoid backticks and dollar-paren entirely; the gate logic is unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(golden): refresh ship golden baselines (#1899 prompt + main's PR-title line) The three ship golden fixtures were stale: main's v1.57.3.0 added the always-loaded PR-title invariant to ship/SKILL.md but did not regenerate the goldens (the golden regression test fails on main too), and the codex golden still carried an unresolved ${ctx.paths.binDir} token. Regenerated from the current generated ship skills, which also picks up this wave's #1899 adversarial-prompt framing (inlined for codex/factory).

4 people	0a803f9e81	feat: gstack v1 — simpler prompts + real LOC receipts (v1.0.0.0) (#1039) ... * docs: add design doc for /plan-tune v1 (observational substrate) Canonical record of the /plan-tune v1 design: typed question registry, per-question explicit preferences, inline tune: feedback with user-origin gate, dual-track profile (declared + inferred separately), and plain-English inspection skill. Captures every decision with pros/cons, what's deferred to v2 with explicit acceptance criteria, and what was rejected entirely. Codex review drove a substantial scope rollback from the initial CEO EXPANSION plan. 15+ legitimate findings (substrate claim was false without a typed registry; E4/E6/clamp logical contradiction; profile poisoning attack surface; LANDED preamble side effect; implementation order) shaped the final shape. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: typed question registry for /plan-tune v1 foundation scripts/question-registry.ts declares 53 recurring AskUserQuestion categories across 15 skills (ship, review, office-hours, plan-ceo-review, plan-eng-review, plan-design-review, plan-devex-review, qa, investigate, land-and-deploy, cso, gstack-upgrade, preamble, plan-tune, autoplan). Each entry has: stable kebab-case id, skill owner, category (approval | clarification | routing | cherry-pick | feedback-loop), door_type (one-way | two-way), optional stable option keys, optional psychographic signal_key, and a one-line description. 12 of 53 are one-way doors (destructive ops, architecture/data forks, security/compliance). These are ALWAYS asked regardless of user preference. Helpers: getQuestion(id), getOneWayDoorIds(), getAllRegisteredIds(), getRegistryStats(). No binary or resolver wiring yet — this is the schema substrate the rest of /plan-tune builds on. Ad-hoc question_ids (not registered) still log but skip psychographic signal attribution. Future /plan-tune skill surfaces frequently-firing ad-hoc ids as candidates for registry promotion. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: registry schema + safety + coverage tests (gate tier) 20 tests validating the question registry: Schema (7 tests): - Every entry has required fields - All ids are kebab-case and start with their skill name - No duplicate ids - Categories are from the allowed set - door_type is one-way | two-way - Options arrays are well-formed - Descriptions are short and single-line Helpers (5 tests): - getQuestion returns entry for known id, undefined for unknown - getOneWayDoorIds includes destructive questions, excludes two-way - getAllRegisteredIds count matches QUESTIONS keys - getRegistryStats totals are internally consistent One-way door safety (2 tests): - Every critical question (test failure, SQL safety, LLM trust boundary, security scan, merge confirm, rollback, fix apply, premise revise, arch finding, privacy gate, user challenge) is declared one-way - At least 10 one-way doors exist (catches regression if declarations are accidentally dropped) Registry breadth (3 tests): - 11 high-volume skills each have >= 1 registered question - Preamble one-time prompts are registered - /plan-tune's own questions are registered Signal map references (1 test): - signal_key values are typed kebab-case strings Template coverage (2 tests, informational): - AskUserQuestion usage across templates is non-trivial (>20) - Registry spans >= 10 skills 20 pass, 0 fail. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: one-way door classifier (belt-and-suspenders safety fallback) scripts/one-way-doors.ts — secondary keyword-pattern classifier that catches destructive questions even when the registry doesn't have an entry for them. The registry's door_type field (from scripts/question-registry.ts) is the PRIMARY safety gate. This classifier is the fallback for ad-hoc question_ids that agents generate at runtime. Classification priority: 1. Registry lookup by question_id → use declared door_type 2. Skill:category fallback (cso:approval, land-and-deploy:approval) 3. Keyword pattern match against question_summary 4. Default: treat as two-way (safer to log the miss than auto-decide unsafely) Covers 21 destructive patterns across: - File system (rm -rf, delete, wipe, purge, truncate) - Database (drop table/database/schema, delete from) - Git/VCS (force-push, reset --hard, checkout --, branch -D) - Deploy/infra (kubectl delete, terraform destroy, rollback) - Credentials (revoke/reset/rotate API key|token|secret|password) - Architecture (breaking change, schema migration, data model change) 7 new tests in test/plan-tune.test.ts covering: registry-first lookup, unknown-id fallthrough, keyword matching on destructive phrasings including embedded filler words ("rotate the API key"), skill-category fallback, benign questions defaulting to two-way, pattern-list non-empty. 27 pass, 0 fail. 1270 expect() calls. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: psychographic signal map + builder archetypes scripts/psychographic-signals.ts — hand-crafted {signal_key, user_choice} → {dimension, delta} map. Version 0.1.0. Conservative deltas (±0.03 to ±0.06 per event). Covers 9 signal keys: scope-appetite, architecture-care, code-quality-care, test-discipline, detail-preference, design-care, devex-care, distribution-care, session-mode. Helpers: applySignal() mutates running totals, newDimensionTotals() creates empty starting state, normalizeToDimensionValue() sigmoid-clamps accumulated delta to [0,1] (0 → 0.5 neutral), validateRegistrySignalKeys() checks that every signal_key in the registry has a SIGNAL_MAP entry. In v1 the signal map is used ONLY to compute inferred dimension values for /plan-tune inspection output. No skill behavior adapts to these signals until v2. scripts/archetypes.ts — 8 named archetypes + Polymath fallback: - Cathedral Builder (boil-the-ocean + architecture-first) - Ship-It Pragmatist (small scope + fast) - Deep Craft (detail-verbose + principled) - Taste Maker (intuitive, overrides recommendations) - Solo Operator (high-autonomy, delegates) - Consultant (hands-on, consulted on everything) - Wedge Hunter (narrow scope aggressively) - Builder-Coach (balanced steering) - Polymath (fallback when no archetype matches) matchArchetype() uses L2 distance scaled by tightness, with a 0.55 threshold below which we return Polymath. v1 ships the model stable; v2 narrative/vibe commands wire it into user-facing output. 14 new tests: signal map consistency vs registry, applySignal behavior for known/unknown keys, normalization bounds, archetype schema validity, name uniqueness, matchArchetype correctness for each reference profile, Polymath fallback for outliers. 41 pass, 0 fail total in test/plan-tune.test.ts. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: bin/gstack-question-log — append validated AskUserQuestion events Append-only JSONL log at ~/.gstack/projects/{SLUG}/question-log.jsonl. Schema: {skill, question_id, question_summary, category?, door_type?, options_count?, user_choice, recommended?, followed_recommendation?, session_id?, ts} Validates: - skill is kebab-case - question_id is kebab-case, <= 64 chars - question_summary non-empty, <= 200 chars, newlines flattened - category is one of approval/clarification/routing/cherry-pick/feedback-loop - door_type is one-way or two-way - options_count is integer in [1, 26] - user_choice non-empty string, <= 64 chars Injection defense on question_summary rejects the same patterns as gstack-learnings-log (ignore previous instructions, system:, override:, do not report, etc). followed_recommendation is auto-computed when both user_choice and recommended are present. ts auto-injected as ISO 8601 if missing. 21 tests covering: valid payloads, full field preservation, auto-followed computation, appending, long-summary truncation, newline flattening, invalid JSON, missing fields, bad case, oversized ids, invalid enum values, out-of-range options_count, and 6 injection attack patterns. 21 pass, 0 fail, 43 expect() calls. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: bin/gstack-developer-profile — unified profile with migration bin/gstack-developer-profile supersedes bin/gstack-builder-profile. The old binary becomes a one-line legacy shim delegating to --read for /office-hours backward compat. Subcommands: --read legacy KEY:VALUE output (tier, session_count, etc) --migrate folds ~/.gstack/builder-profile.jsonl into ~/.gstack/developer-profile.json. Atomic (temp + rename), idempotent (no-op when target exists or source absent), archives source as .migrated-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS --derive recomputes inferred dimensions from question-log.jsonl using the signal map in scripts/psychographic-signals.ts --profile full profile JSON --gap declared vs inferred diff JSON --trace <dim> event-level trace of what contributed to a dimension --check-mismatch flags dimensions where declared and inferred disagree by > 0.3 (requires >= 10 events first) --vibe archetype name + description from scripts/archetypes.ts --narrative (v2 stub) Auto-migration on first read: if legacy file exists and new file doesn't, migrate before reading. Creates a neutral (all-0.5) stub if nothing exists. Unified schema (see docs/designs/PLAN_TUNING_V0.md §Architecture): {identity, declared, inferred: {values, sample_size, diversity}, gap, overrides, sessions, signals_accumulated, schema_version} 25 new tests across subcommand behaviors: - --read defaults + stub creation - --migrate: 3 sessions preserved with signal tallies, idempotency, archival - Tier calculation: welcome_back / regular / inner_circle boundaries - --derive: neutral-when-empty, upward nudge on 'expand', downward on 'reduce', recomputable (same input → same output), ad-hoc unregistered ids ignored - --trace: contributing events, empty for untouched dims, error without arg - --gap: empty when no declared, correctly computed otherwise - --vibe: returns archetype name + description - --check-mismatch: threshold behavior, 10+ sample requirement - Unknown subcommand errors 25 pass, 0 fail, 60 expect() calls. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: bin/gstack-question-preference — explicit preferences + user-origin gate Subcommands: --check <id> → ASK_NORMALLY | AUTO_DECIDE (decides if a registered question should be auto-decided by the agent) --write '{…}' → set a preference (requires user-origin source) --read → dump preferences JSON --clear [id] → clear one or all --stats → short counts summary Preference values: always-ask | never-ask | ask-only-for-one-way. Stored at ~/.gstack/projects/{SLUG}/question-preferences.json. Safety contract (the core of Codex finding #16, profile-poisoning defense from docs/designs/PLAN_TUNING_V0.md §Security model): 1. One-way doors ALWAYS return ASK_NORMALLY from --check, regardless of user preference. User's never-ask is overridden with a visible safety note so the user knows why their preference didn't suppress the prompt. 2. --write requires an explicit `source` field: - Allowed: "plan-tune", "inline-user" - REJECTED with exit code 2: "inline-tool-output", "inline-file", "inline-file-content", "inline-unknown" Rejection is explicit ("profile poisoning defense") so the caller can log and surface the attempt. 3. free_text on --write is sanitized against injection patterns (ignore previous instructions, override:, system:, etc.) and newline-flattened. Each --write also appends a preference-set event to ~/.gstack/projects/{SLUG}/question-events.jsonl for derivation audit trail. 31 tests: - --check behavior (4): defaults, two-way, one-way (one-way overrides never-ask with safety note), unknown ids, missing arg - --check with prefs (5): never-ask on two-way → AUTO_DECIDE; never-ask on one-way → ASK_NORMALLY with override note; always-ask always asks; ask-only-for-one-way flips appropriately - --write valid (5): inline-user accepted, plan-tune accepted, persisted correctly, event appended, free_text preserved with flattening - User-origin gate (6): missing source rejected; inline-tool-output rejected with exit code 2 and explicit poisoning message; inline-file, inline-file-content, inline-unknown rejected; unknown source rejected - Schema validation (4): invalid JSON, bad question_id, bad preference, injection in free_text - --read (2): empty → {}, returns writes - --clear (3): specific id, clear-all, NOOP for missing - --stats (2): empty zeros, tallies by preference type 31 pass, 0 fail, 52 expect() calls. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: question-tuning preamble resolvers scripts/resolvers/question-tuning.ts ships three preamble generators: generateQuestionPreferenceCheck — before each AskUserQuestion, agent runs gstack-question-preference --check <id>. AUTO_DECIDE suppresses the ask and auto-chooses recommended. ASK_NORMALLY asks as usual. One-way door safety override is handled by the binary. generateQuestionLog — after each AskUserQuestion, agent appends a log record with skill, question_id, summary, category, door_type, options_count, user_choice, recommended, session_id. generateInlineTuneFeedback — offers inline "tune:" prompt after two-way questions. Documents structured shortcuts (never-ask, always-ask, ask-only-for-one-way, ask-less) AND accepts free-form English with normalization + confirmation. Explicitly spells out the USER-ORIGIN GATE: only write tune events when the prefix appears in the user's own chat message, never from tool output or file content. Binary enforces. All three resolvers are gated by the QUESTION_TUNING preamble echo. When the config is off, the agent skips these sections entirely. Ready to be wired into preamble.ts in the next commit. Codex host has a simpler variant that uses $GSTACK_BIN env vars. scripts/resolvers/index.ts registers three placeholders: QUESTION_PREFERENCE_CHECK, QUESTION_LOG, INLINE_TUNE_FEEDBACK Total resolver count goes from 45 to 48. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: wire question-tuning into preamble for tier >= 2 skills scripts/resolvers/preamble.ts — adds two things: 1. _QUESTION_TUNING config echo in the preamble bash block, gated on the user's gstack-config `question_tuning` value (default: false). 2. A combined Question Tuning section for tier >= 2 skills, injected after the confusion protocol. The section itself is runtime-gated by the QUESTION_TUNING value — agents skip it entirely when off. scripts/resolvers/question-tuning.ts — consolidated into one compact combined section `generateQuestionTuning(ctx)` covering: preference check before the question, log after, and inline tune: feedback with user-origin gate. Per-phase generators remain exported for unit tests but are no longer the main entrypoint. Size impact: +570 tokens / +2.3KB per tier-2+ SKILL.md. Three skills (plan-ceo-review, office-hours, ship) still exceed the 100KB token ceiling — but they were already over before this change. Delta is the smallest viable wiring of the /plan-tune v1 substrate. Golden fixtures (test/fixtures/golden/claude-ship, codex-ship, factory-ship) regenerated to match the new baseline. Full test run: 1149 pass, 0 fail, 113 skip across 28 files. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore: regenerate SKILL.md files with question-tuning section bun run gen:skill-docs --host all after wiring the QUESTION_TUNING preamble section. Every tier >= 2 skill now includes the combined Question Tuning guidance. Runtime-gated — agents skip the section when question_tuning is off in gstack-config (default). Golden fixtures (claude-ship, codex-ship, factory-ship) updated to the new baseline. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: /plan-tune skill — conversational inspection + preferences plan-tune/SKILL.md.tmpl: the user-facing skill for /plan-tune v1. Routes plain-English intent to one of 8 flows: - Enable + setup (first-time): 5 declaration questions mapping to the 5 psychographic dimensions (scope_appetite, risk_tolerance, detail_preference, autonomy, architecture_care). Writes to developer-profile.json declared.*. - Inspect profile: plain-English rendering of declared + inferred + gap. Uses word bands (low/balanced/high) not raw floats. Shows vibe archetype when calibration gate is met. - Review question log: top-20 question frequencies with follow/override counts. Highlights override-heavy questions as candidates for never-ask. - Set a preference: normalizes "stop asking me about X" → never-ask, etc. Confirms ambiguous phrasings before writing via gstack-question-preference. - Edit declared profile: interprets free-form ("more boil-the-ocean") and CONFIRMS before mutating declared.* (trust boundary per Codex #15). - Show gap: declared vs inferred diff with plain-English severity bands (close / drift / mismatch). Never auto-updates declared from the gap. - Stats: preference counts + diversity/calibration status. - Enable / disable: gstack-config set question_tuning true|false. Design constraints enforced: - Plain English everywhere. No CLI subcommand syntax required. Shortcuts (`profile`, `vibe`, `stats`, `setup`) exist but optional. - user-origin gate on tune: writes. source: "plan-tune" for user-invoked /plan-tune; source: "inline-user" for inline tune: from other skills. - One-way doors override never-ask (safety, surfaced to user). - No behavior adaptation in v1 — this skill inspects and configures only. Generates plan-tune/SKILL.md at ~11.6k tokens, well under the 100KB ceiling. Generated for all hosts via `bun run gen:skill-docs --host all`. Full free test suite: 1149 pass, 0 fail, 113 skip across 28 files. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: end-to-end pipeline + preamble injection coverage Added 6 tests to test/plan-tune.test.ts: Preamble injection (3 tests): - tier 2+ includes Question Tuning section with preference check, log, and user-origin gate language ('profile-poisoning defense', 'inline-user') - tier 1 does NOT include the prose section (QUESTION_TUNING bash echo still fires since it's in the bash block all tiers share) - codex host swaps binDir references to $GSTACK_BIN End-to-end pipeline (3 tests) — real binaries working together, not mocks: - Log 5 expand choices → --derive → profile shows scope_appetite > 0.5 (full log → registry lookup → signal map → normalization round-trip) - --write source: inline-tool-output rejected; --read confirms no pref was persisted (the profile-poisoning defense actually works end-to-end) - Migrate a 3-session legacy file; confirm legacy gstack-builder-profile shim still returns SESSION_COUNT: 3, TIER: welcome_back, CROSS_PROJECT: true test/plan-tune.test.ts now has 47 tests total. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: E2E test for /plan-tune plain-English inspection flow (gate tier) test/skill-e2e-plan-tune.test.ts — verifies /plan-tune correctly routes plain-English intent ("review the questions I've been asked") to the Review question log section without requiring CLI subcommand syntax. Seeds a synthetic question-log.jsonl with 3 entries exercising: - override behavior (user chose expand over recommended selective) - one-way door respect (user followed ship-test-failure-triage recommendation) - two-way override (user skipped recommended changelog polish) Invokes the skill via `claude -p` and asserts: - Agent surfaces >= 2 of 3 logged question_ids in output - Agent notices override/skip behavior from the log - Exit reason is success or error_max_turns (not agent-crash) Gate-tier because the core v1 DX promise is plain-English intent routing. If it requires memorized subcommands or breaks on natural language, that's a regression of the defining feature. Registered in test/helpers/touchfiles.ts with dependencies: - plan-tune/** (skill template + generated md) - scripts/question-registry.ts (required for log lookup) - scripts/psychographic-signals.ts, scripts/one-way-doors.ts (derive path) - bin/gstack-question-log, gstack-question-preference, gstack-developer-profile Skipped when EVALS_ENABLED is not set; runs on `bun run test:evals`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore: bump version and changelog (v0.19.0.0) — /plan-tune v1 Ships /plan-tune as observational substrate: typed question registry, dual-track developer profile (declared + inferred), explicit per-question preferences with user-origin gate, inline tune: feedback across every tier >= 2 skill, unified developer-profile.json with migration from builder-profile.jsonl. Scope rolled back from initial CEO EXPANSION plan after outside-voice review (Codex). 6 deferrals tracked as P0 TODOs with explicit acceptance criteria: E1 substrate wiring, E3 narrative/vibe, E4 blind-spot coach, E5 LANDED celebration, E6 auto-adjustment, E7 psychographic auto-decide. See docs/designs/PLAN_TUNING_V0.md for the full design record. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(ci): harden Dockerfile.ci against transient Ubuntu mirror failures The CI image build failed with: E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/... Connection failed [IP: 91.189.92.22 80] ERROR: process "/bin/sh -c apt-get update && apt-get install ..." did not complete successfully: exit code: 100 archive.ubuntu.com periodically returns "connection refused" on individual regional mirrors. Without retry logic a single failed fetch nukes the whole Docker build. Three defenses, layered: 1. /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/80-retries — apt fetches each package up to 5 times with a 30s timeout. Handles per-package flakes. 2. Shell-loop retry around the whole apt-get step (x3, 10s sleep) — handles the case where apt-get update itself can't reach any mirror. 3. --retry 5 --retry-delay 5 --retry-connrefused on all curl fetches (bun install script, GitHub CLI keyring, NodeSource setup script). Applied to every apt-get and curl call in the Dockerfile. No behavior change on happy path — only kicks in when mirrors blip. Fixes the build-image job that was blocking CI on the /plan-tune PR. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: add PLAN_TUNING_V1 + PACING_UPDATES_V0 design docs Captures the V1 design (ELI10 writing + LOC reframe) in docs/designs/PLAN_TUNING_V1.md and the extracted V1.1 pacing-overhaul plan in docs/designs/PACING_UPDATES_V0.md. V1 scope was reduced from the original bundled pacing + writing-style plan after three engineering-review passes revealed structural gaps in the pacing workstream that couldn't be closed via plan-text editing. TODOS.md P0 entry links to V1.1. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: curated jargon list for V1 writing-style glossing Repo-owned list of ~50 high-frequency technical terms (idempotent, race condition, N+1, backpressure, etc.) that gstack glosses on first use in tier-≥2 skill output. Baked into generated SKILL.md prose at gen-skill-docs time. Terms not on this list are assumed plain-English enough. Contributions via PR. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(preamble): V1 Writing Style section + EXPLAIN_LEVEL echo + migration prompt Adds a new Writing Style section to tier-≥2 preamble output composing with the existing AskUserQuestion Format section. Six rules: jargon glossed on first use per skill invocation (from scripts/jargon-list.json), outcome- framed questions, short sentences, decisions close with user impact, gloss-on-first-use even if user pasted term, user-turn override for "be terse" requests. Baked conditionally (skip if EXPLAIN_LEVEL: terse). Adds EXPLAIN_LEVEL preamble echo using \${binDir} (host-portable matching V0 QUESTION_TUNING pattern). Adds WRITING_STYLE_PENDING echo reading a flag file written by the V0→V1 upgrade migration; on first post-upgrade skill run, the agent fires a one-time AskUserQuestion offering terse mode. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(gstack-config): validate explain_level + document in header Adds explain_level: default|terse to the annotated config header with a one-line description. Whitelists valid values; on set of an unknown value, prints a specific warning ("explain_level '\$VALUE' not recognized. Valid values: default, terse. Using default.") and writes the default value. Matches V1 preamble's EXPLAIN_LEVEL echo expectation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: V1 upgrade migration — writing-style opt-out prompt New migration script following existing v0.15.2.0.sh / v0.16.2.0.sh pattern. Writes a .writing-style-prompt-pending flag file on first run post-upgrade. The preamble's migration-prompt block reads the flag and fires a one-time AskUserQuestion offering the user a choice between the new default writing style and restoring V0 prose via \`gstack-config set explain_level terse\`. Idempotent via flag files; if the user has already set explain_level explicitly, counts as answered and skips. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: LOC reframe tooling — throughput comparison + README updater + scc installer Three new scripts: - scripts/garry-output-comparison.ts — enumerates Garry-authored commits in 2013 + 2026 on public repos, extracts ADDED lines from git diff, classifies as logical SLOC via scc --stdin (regex fallback if scc missing). Writes docs/throughput-2013-vs-2026.json with per-language breakdown + explicit caveats (public repos only, commit-style drift, private-work exclusion). - scripts/update-readme-throughput.ts — reads the JSON if present, replaces the README's <!-- GSTACK-THROUGHPUT-PLACEHOLDER --> anchor with the computed multiple (preserving the anchor for future runs). If JSON missing, writes GSTACK-THROUGHPUT-PENDING marker that CI rejects — forcing the build to run before commit. - scripts/setup-scc.sh — standalone OS-detecting installer for scc. Not a package.json dependency (95% of users never run throughput). Brew on macOS, apt on Linux, GitHub releases link on Windows. Two-string anchor pattern (PLACEHOLDER vs PENDING) prevents the pipeline from destroying its own update path. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(retro): surface logical SLOC + weighted commits above raw LOC V1 reorders the /retro summary table to lead with features shipped, then commits + weighted commits (commits × files-touched capped at 20), then PRs merged, then logical SLOC added as the primary code-volume metric. Raw LOC stays present but is demoted to context. Rationale inline in the template: ten lines of a good fix is not less shipping than ten thousand lines of scaffold. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(v1): README hero reframe + writing-style + CHANGELOG + version bump to 1.0.0.0 README.md: - Hero removes "600,000+ lines of production code" framing; replaces with the computed 2013-vs-2026 pro-rata multiple (via <!-- GSTACK-THROUGHPUT-PLACEHOLDER --> anchor, filled by the update-readme-throughput build step). - Hiring callout: "ship real products at AI-coding speed" instead of "10K+ LOC/day." - New Writing Style section (~80 words) between Quick start and Install: "v1 prompts = simpler" framing, outcome-language example, terse-mode opt-out, pointer to /plan-tune. CLAUDE.md: one-paragraph Writing style (V1) note under project conventions, linking to preamble resolver + V1 design docs. CHANGELOG.md: V1 entry on top of v0.19.0.0 with user-facing narrative (what changes, how to opt out, for-contributors notes). Mentions scope reduction — pacing overhaul ships in V1.1. CONTRIBUTING.md: one-paragraph note on jargon-list.json maintenance (PR to add/remove terms; regenerate via gen:skill-docs). VERSION + package.json: bump to 1.0.0.0. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore: regenerate SKILL.md files + golden fixtures for V1 Mechanical regeneration from the updated templates in prior commits: - Writing Style section now appears in tier-≥2 skill output. - EXPLAIN_LEVEL + WRITING_STYLE_PENDING echoes in preamble bash. - V1 migration-prompt block fires conditionally on first upgrade. - Jargon list inlined into preamble prose at gen time. - Retro template's logical SLOC + weighted commits order applied. Regenerated for all 8 hosts via bun run gen:skill-docs --host all. Golden ship-skill fixtures refreshed from regenerated outputs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: V1 gate coverage — writing-style resolver + config + jargon + migration + dormancy Six new gate-tier test files: - test/writing-style-resolver.test.ts — asserts Writing Style section is injected into tier-≥2 preamble, all 6 rules present, jargon list inlined, terse-mode gate condition present, Codex output uses \$GSTACK_BIN (not ~/.claude/), tier-1 does NOT get the section, migration-prompt block present. - test/explain-level-config.test.ts — gstack-config set/get round-trip for default + terse, unknown-value warns + defaults to default, header documents the key, round-trip across set→set→get. - test/jargon-list.test.ts — shape + ~50 terms + no duplicates (case-insensitive) + includes canonical high-signal terms. - test/v0-dormancy.test.ts — 5D dimension names + archetype names forbidden in default-mode tier-≥2 SKILL.md output, except for plan-tune and office-hours where they're load-bearing. - test/readme-throughput.test.ts — script replaces anchor with number on happy path, writes PENDING marker when JSON missing, CI gate asserts committed README contains no PENDING string. - test/upgrade-migration-v1.test.ts — fresh run writes pending flag, idempotent after user-answered, pre-existing explain_level counts as answered. All 95 V1 test-expect() calls pass. Full suite: 0 failures.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: run rate vs year-to-date throughput comparison Two separate numbers in the README hero: - Run rate: ~700× (9,859 logical lines/day in 2026 vs 14/day in 2013) - Year-to-date: 207× (2026 through April 18 already exceeds 2013 full year by 207×) Previous "207× pro-rata" framing mixed full-year 2013 vs partial-year 2026. Run rate is the apples-to-apples normalization; YTD is the "already produced" total. Both are honest; both are compelling; they measure different things.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(throughput): script natively computes to-date + run-rate multiples Enhanced scripts/garry-output-comparison.ts so both calculations come out of a single run instead of being reassembled ad-hoc in bash: PerYearResult now includes: - days_elapsed — 365 for past years, day-of-year for current - is_partial — flags the current (in-progress) year - per_day_rate — logical/raw/commits normalized by calendar day - annualized_projection — per_day_rate × 365 Output JSON's `multiples` now has two sibling blocks: - multiples.to_date — raw volume ratios (2026-YTD / 2013-full-year) - multiples.run_rate — per-day pace ratios (apples-to-apples) Back-compat: multiples.logical_lines_added still aliases to_date for older consumers reading the JSON. Updated README hero to cite both (picking up brain/* repo that was missed in the earlier aggregation pass): 2026 run rate: ~880× my 2013 pace (12,382 vs 14 logical lines/day) 2026 YTD: 260× the entire 2013 year Stderr summary now prints both multiples at the end of each run.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: ON_THE_LOC_CONTROVERSY methodology post + README link Long-form response to the "LOC is a meaningless vanity metric" critique. Covers: - The three branches of the LOC critique and which are right - Why logical SLOC (NCLOC) beats raw LOC as the honest measurement - Full method: author-scoped git diff, regex-classified added lines, aggregated across 41 public + private garrytan/* repos - Both calculations: to-date (260x) and run-rate (879x) - Steelman of the critics (greenfield-vs-maintenance, survivorship bias, quality-adjusted productivity, time-to-first-user) - Reproduction instructions Linked from README hero via a blockquote directly below the number. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * exclude: tax-app from throughput analysis (import-dominated history) tax-app's history is one commit of 104K logical lines — an initial import of a codebase, not authored work. Removing it to keep the comparison honest. Changes: - scripts/garry-output-comparison.ts: added EXCLUDED_REPOS constant with tax-app + a one-line rationale. The script now skips excluded repos with a stderr note and deletes any stale output JSON so aggregation loops don't pick up pre-exclusion numbers. - README hero: updated to 810× run rate + 240× YTD (were 880×/260×). Wording updated to "40 public + private repos ... after excluding repos dominated by imported code." - docs/ON_THE_LOC_CONTROVERSY.md: updated all numbers, added an "Exclusions" paragraph explaining tax-app, removed tax-app from the "shipped not WIP" example list. New numbers (2026 through day 108, without tax-app): - To-date: 240× logical SLOC (1,233,062 vs 5,143) - Run rate: 810× per-day pace (11,417 vs 14 logical/day) - Annualized: ~4.2M logical lines projected Future re-runs automatically skip tax-app. Add more exclusions to EXCLUDED_REPOS at the top of the script with a one-line rationale. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: correct tax-app exclusion rationale tax-app is a demo app I built for an upcoming YC channel video, not an "import-dominated history" as the previous commit claimed. Excluded because it's not production shipping work, not because of an import commit. Updated rationale in scripts/garry-output-comparison.ts's EXCLUDED_REPOS constant, in docs/ON_THE_LOC_CONTROVERSY.md's method section + conclusion, and in the README hero wording ("one demo repo" vs the earlier "repos dominated by imported code"). Numbers unchanged — the exclusion itself is the same, just the reason. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: harden ON_THE_LOC_CONTROVERSY against Cramer + neckbeard critiques Reframes the thesis as "engineers can fly now" (amplification, not replacement) and fortifies the soft spots critics will attack. Added: - Flight-thesis opener: pilot vs walker, leverage not replacement. - Second deflation layer for AI verbosity (on top of NCLOC). Headline moves from 810x to 408x after generous 2x AI-boilerplate cut, with explicit sensitivity analysis showing the number is still large under pessimistic priors (5x → 162x, 10x → 81x, 100x impossible). - Weekly distribution check (kills "you had one burst week" attack). - Revert rate (2.0%) and post-merge fix rate (6.3%) with OSS comparables (K8s/Rails/Django band). Addresses "where are your error rates" directly. - Named production adoption signals (gstack 1000+ installs, gbrain beta, resend_robot paying API) with explicit concession that "shipped != used at scale" for most of the corpus. - Harder steelman: 5 specific concessions with quantified pivot points (e.g., "if 2013 baseline was 3.5x higher, 810x → 228x, still high"). Removed factual error: Posterous acquisition paragraph (Garry had already left Posterous by 2011, so the "Twitter bought our private repos" excuse for the 2013 corpus gap doesn't apply). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: update gstack/gbrain adoption numbers in LOC controversy post gstack: "1,000+ distinct project installations" → "tens of thousands of daily active users" (telemetry-reported, community tier, opt-in). gbrain: "small set of beta testers" → "hundreds of beta testers running it live." Both are the accurate current numbers. The concession paragraph below (about shipped != adopted at scale for the long-tail repos) still reads correctly since it's about the corpus as a whole, not gstack/gbrain specifically. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: reframe reproducibility note as OSS breakout flex "You'd need access to my private repos" → "Bookface and Posthaven are private, but gstack and gbrain are open-sourced with tens of thousands of GitHub stars and tens of thousands of confirmed regular users, among the most-used OSS projects in the world that didn't exist three months ago." Keeps the `gh repo list` command at the end for the actual reproducibility instruction. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * Rewrite LOC controversy post - Lead with concession (LOC is garbage, do the math anyway) - Preempt 14 lines/day meme with historical baselines (Brooks, Jones, McConnell) - Remove 'neckbeard' language throughout - Add slop-scan story (Ben Vinegar, 5.24 → 1.96, 62% cut) - David Cramer GUnit joke - Add testing philosophy section (the real unlock) - ASCII weekly distribution chart - gstack telemetry section with real numbers (15K installs, 305K invocations, 95.2% success) - Top skills usage chart - Pick-your-priors paragraph moved earlier (the killer) - Sharper close: run the script, show me your numbers * docs: four precision fixes on LOC controversy post 1. Citation fix. Kernighan didn't say anything about LOC-as-metric (that's the famous "aircraft building by weight" quote, commonly misattributed but actually Bill Gates). Replaced "Kernighan implied it before that" with the real Dijkstra quote ("lines produced" vs "lines spent" from EWD1036, with direct link) + the Gates quote. Verified via web search. 2. Slop-scan direction clarified. "(highest on his benchmark)" was ambiguous — could read as a brag. Now: "Higher score = more slop. He ran it on gstack and we scored 5.24, the worst he'd measured at the time." Then the 62% cut lands as an actual win. 3. Prose/chart skill-usage ordering now matches. Added /plan-eng-review (28,014) to the prose list so it doesn't conflict with the chart below it. 4. Cut the "David — I owe you one / GUnit" insider joke. Most readers won't connect Cramer → Sentry → GUnit naming. Ends the slop-scan paragraph on the stronger line: "Run `bun test` and watch 2,000+ tests pass." Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: tighten four LOC post citations to match primary sources 1. Bill Gates quote: flagged as folklore-grade. Was "Bill Gates put it more memorably" (firm attribution). Now "The old line (widely attributed to Bill Gates, sourcing murky) puts it more memorably." The quote stands; honesty about attribution avoids the same misattribution trap we just fixed for Kernighan. 2. Capers Jones: "15-50 across thousands of projects" → "roughly 16-38 LOC/day across thousands of projects" — matches his actual published measurements (which also report as 325-750 LOC/month). 3. Steve McConnell: "10-50 for finished, tested, delivered code" was folklore. Replaced with his actual project-size-dependent range from Code Complete: "20-125 LOC/day for small projects (10K LOC) down to 1.5-25 for large projects (10M LOC) — it's size-dependent, not a single number." 4. Revert rate comparison: "Kubernetes, Rails, and Django historically run 1.5-3%" was unsourced. Replaced with "mature OSS codebases typically run 1-3%" + "run the same command on whatever you consider the bar and compare." No false specificity about which repos. Net: every quantitative citation in the post now matches primary-source figures or is explicitly flagged as folklore. Neckbeards can verify. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: drop Writing style section from README Was sitting in prime real estate between Quick start and Install — internal implementation detail, not something users need up-front. Existing coverage is enough: - Upgrade migration prompt notifies users on first post-upgrade run - CLAUDE.md has the contributor note - docs/designs/PLAN_TUNING_V1.md has the full design Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: collapse team-mode setup into one paste-and-go command Step 2 was three separate code blocks: setup --team, then team-init, then git add/commit. Mirrors Step 1's style now — one shell one-liner that does all three. Subshell (cd && ./setup --team) keeps the user in their repo pwd so team-init + git commit land in the right place. "Swap required for optional" moved to a one-liner below. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: move full-clone footnote from README to CONTRIBUTING The "Contributing or need full history?" note is for contributors, not for someone following the README install flow. Moved into CONTRIBUTING's Quick start section where it fits next to the existing clone command, with a tip to upgrade an existing shallow clone via \`git fetch --unshallow\`.
