Contributor mode:
- Add "do not truncate" directive to template — agent was stopping
after "My rating" without completing Steps/Raw output/What would
make this a 10 sections
- Restore assertions for Steps to reproduce and Date footer
QA quick:
- Make test server URL prominent: top of prompt, explicit "already
running" and "do NOT discover ports" instructions
- Bump session timeout 180s→240s and test timeout 240s→300s
- Set B= at top of prompt (was buried in prose)

Replace passive "report when things break" with active reflection:
- Rate gstack experience 0-10 at workflow step boundaries
- Historical calibration example (await bug) anchors the reporting bar
- "What would make this a 10" field focuses on actionable improvements
- Removed category lists in favor of judgment-based assessment
* feat: add {{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}} resolver to gen-skill-docs
DRY placeholder for dynamic base branch detection across PR-targeting
skills. Detects via gh pr view (existing PR base) → gh repo view
(repo default) → fallback to main.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: ship skill detects base branch instead of hardcoding main
Replaces ~14 hardcoded 'main' references with dynamic detection via
{{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}}. Fixes stacked branches and Conductor workspaces
targeting non-main branches. Adds --base <base> to gh pr create.

* fix: review, qa, plan-ceo-review detect base branch dynamically
Same pattern as ship: replaces hardcoded 'main' with {{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}}.
Also cleans up qa bash-isms (REPORT_DIR variable, port chaining).

* fix: retro detects default branch instead of hardcoding origin/main
Retro queries commit history (not PR targets), so uses simpler detection:
gh repo view defaultBranchRef. Replaces ~11 origin/main refs with
origin/<default>.

* docs: add explicit cross-step references in gstack-upgrade template
Bash blocks are self-contained, but cross-block variable references
(INSTALL_DIR from Step 2) were implicit. Adds prose making them explicit.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* docs+test: SKILL authoring guidance + regression tests
Adds "Writing SKILL templates" section to CLAUDE.md explaining that
templates are prompts, not scripts. Adds validation test catching
hardcoded 'main' in git commands, and resolver content test.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* docs: update ARCHITECTURE + CONTRIBUTING for new placeholders
Add {{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}} to ARCHITECTURE.md placeholder list.
Cross-reference CLAUDE.md template authoring guidance from CONTRIBUTING.md.

* fix: add missing blank line between resolver functions
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* test: add 3 E2E smoke tests for base branch detection
- /review: verifies Step 0 detection + git diff against detected base
- /ship: truncated dry-run (Steps 0-1 only, no push/PR), asserts no
destructive actions
- /retro: verifies default branch detection for git log queries
Covers the {{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}} resolver path (review), the ship
template's dual abort check, and retro's inline detection pattern.

- Add session tracking (touch ~/.gstack/sessions/$PPID, count active sessions)
- ELI16 mode when 3+ concurrent sessions detected (re-ground user on context)
- Contributor mode: auto-file field reports to ~/.gstack/contributor-logs/
- Universal AskUserQuestion format: context → question → RECOMMENDATION → options
- Update plan-ceo-review and plan-eng-review to reference preamble baseline
- Add vendored symlink awareness section to CLAUDE.md
- Rewrite CONTRIBUTING.md with contributor workflow and cross-project testing
- Add tests for contributor mode and session awareness in generated output
- Add E2E eval for contributor mode report filing
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat: add Enum & Value Completeness to /review critical checklist
New CRITICAL review category that traces new enum values, status strings,
and type constants through every consumer outside the diff. Catches the
class of bugs where a new value is added but not handled in all switch/case
chains, allowlists, or frontend-backend contracts.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat: add evals for RECOMMENDATION format, session awareness, and enum completeness
Free tests (Tier 1): RECOMMENDATION format + session awareness in all
preamble SKILL.md files, enum completeness checklist structure and CRITICAL
classification.
E2E eval: /review catches missed enum handlers when a new status value
is added but not handled in case/switch and notify methods.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat: add E2E eval for session awareness ELI16 mode
Stubs _SESSIONS=4, gives agent a decision point on feature/add-payments
branch, verifies the output re-grounds the user with project, branch,
context, and RECOMMENDATION — the ELI16 mode behavior for 3+ sessions.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: contributor mode eval marked FAIL due to expected browse error
The test intentionally runs a nonexistent binary to trigger contributor
mode. The session runner's browse error detection catches "no such file
or directory...browse" and sets browseErrors, causing recordE2E to mark
passed=false. Override passed to check only exitReason since the browse
error is the expected scenario.

* feat: add bin/gstack-config CLI for reading/writing ~/.gstack/config.yaml
Simple get/set/list interface for persistent gstack configuration.
Used by update-check and upgrade skill for auto_upgrade and update_check settings.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat: smart update check with 12h cache, snooze backoff, config disable
- Reduce cache TTL from 24h to 12h for faster update detection
- Add exponential snooze backoff: 24h → 48h → 1 week (resets on new version)
- Add update_check: false config option to disable checks entirely
- Clear snooze file on just-upgraded
- 14 new tests covering snooze levels, expiry, corruption, and config paths
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat: upgrade skill with auto-upgrade, 4-option prompt, vendored sync
- Auto-upgrade mode via config or GSTACK_AUTO_UPGRADE=1 env var
- 4-option AskUserQuestion: upgrade once, always, not now, never
- Step 4.5: sync local vendored copy after upgrading primary install
- Snooze write with escalating backoff on "Not now"
- Update preamble text in gen-skill-docs for new upgrade flow
- Regenerate all SKILL.md files
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* docs: simplify upgrade instructions, move auto-upgrade to completed
README now points to /gstack-upgrade instead of long paste commands.
Auto-upgrade TODO moved to Completed section (v0.3.8).

* fix: log non-ENOENT errors in ensureStateDir() instead of silently swallowing
Replace bare catch {} with ENOENT-only silence. Non-ENOENT errors (EACCES,
ENOSPC) are now logged to .gstack/browse-server.log. Includes test for
permission-denied scenario with chmod 444.
* feat: merge TODO.md + TODOS.md into unified backlog with shared format reference
Merge TODO.md (roadmap) and TODOS.md (near-term) into one file organized by
skill/component with P0-P4 priority ordering and Completed section. Add shared
review/TODOS-format.md for canonical format. Add static validation tests.
* feat: add 2-tier Greptile reply system with escalation detection
Add reply templates (Tier 1 friendly, Tier 2 firm), explicit escalation
detection algorithm, and severity re-ranking guidance to greptile-triage.md.
* feat: cross-skill TODOS awareness + Greptile template refs in all skills
/ship Step 5.5: auto-detect completed TODOs, offer reorganization.
/review Step 5.5: cross-reference PR against open TODOs.
/plan-ceo-review, /plan-eng-review: TODOS context in planning.
/retro: Backlog Health metric. /qa: bug TODO context in diff-aware mode.
All Greptile-aware skills now reference reply templates and escalation detection.
* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.3.8)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* docs: update CONTRIBUTING.md for v0.3.8 changes
Clarify test tier cost table (Tier 3 standalone vs combined), add TODOS.md
to "Things to know", mention Greptile triage in ship workflow description.

The `[ -n "$_UPD" ] && echo "$_UPD"` line in 5 skills was missing `|| true`,
causing exit code 1 when the update check finds no update (empty $_UPD).
Fix: convert ship/, review/, plan-ceo-review/, plan-eng-review/, retro/ to
.tmpl templates using {{UPDATE_CHECK}} placeholder (same as browse/qa/etc).
All 9 skills now generated from templates — preamble changes propagate everywhere.
Also: regenerates qa/SKILL.md which had drifted from its template, adds 12 tests
validating the update check preamble exits 0 in all skills, removes completed TODO.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat: add daily update check script + /gstack-upgrade skill
bin/gstack-update-check: pure bash, checks VERSION against remote once/day,
outputs UPGRADE_AVAILABLE or JUST_UPGRADED. Uses ~/.gstack/ for state.
gstack-upgrade/SKILL.md: new skill with inline upgrade flow for all preambles.
Detects global-git, local-git, vendored installs. Shows What's New from CHANGELOG.
browse/test/gstack-update-check.test.ts: 10 test cases covering all branch paths.
* refactor: remove version check from find-browse, simplify to binary locator
Delete checkVersion(), readCache(), writeCache(), fetchRemoteSHA(),
resolveSkillDir(), CacheEntry interface, REPO_URL/CACHE_PATH/CACHE_TTL
constants, and META output from find-browse.ts.
Version checking is now handled by bin/gstack-update-check (previous commit).
* feat: add update check preamble to all 9 skills
Every skill now runs bin/gstack-update-check on invocation. If an upgrade
is available, reads gstack-upgrade/SKILL.md inline upgrade flow.
Also adds AskUserQuestion to 5 skills that lacked it (gstack root, browse,
qa, retro, setup-browser-cookies) and Bash to plan-eng-review.
Simplifies qa and setup-browser-cookies setup blocks (removes META parsing).
* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.3.4)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: remove unused import + add corrupt cache test
Address pre-landing review findings:
- Remove unused mkdirSync import from gstack-update-check.test.ts
- Add Path I test: corrupt cache file falls through to remote fetch
