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.

1d41ee3ab3 v1.63.0.0 feat: GStack 2 fork port wave — egress receipts, context-bill, sharded gate, /health fix (#2541)
* test(helpers): shared skill-census helper with three explicit counts

physicalSkillFiles (symlinked dirs included, root router included),
authoredSkills (realpath-deduped, router excluded), registryEntries
(what ./setup registers: unique frontmatter names + _gstack-command).

One counting authority for the hermetic seeder, context-bill ground
truth, and the catalog-budget test — connect-chrome's dir symlink and
the root router otherwise produce three subtly different hand-rolled
censuses. Ported-wave foundation (C11).

* fix(evals): stop the harness grading itself

findPreviousRun excluded only the file being written, by name, so every
suite compared against _partial-e2e.json — the current run's own
accumulator, relabelled with the current tier just before each flush.
That is why every block read '+$0.00, +0s, Stable run, no regressions.'
This harness has never been able to detect a regression, and reassuring
output that cannot fail is worse than none. In-progress runs are now
excluded by role, and a run with nothing to compare against says NO
BASELINE instead of claiming stability.

* refactor(evals): shared partial-run predicate + finalized-run lookup

isPartialEval(data, filename) is the one place that decides what counts
as an in-progress accumulator (the _partial flag OR a _partial-prefixed
filename), and findLatestFinalizedRun(evalDir, tier) is the one place
that finds the newest real run — scanning the eval dir plus one level of
shards/<slug>/ subdirs, where the sharded paid runner points each
shard's collector. skill-budget-regression.test.ts's hand-rolled
findLatestRun (flag-blind: a flagged-but-renamed accumulator passed its
name check) is replaced by the shared helper.

* feat(evals): register shipped skills for hermetic PTY children

Hermetic children get a config dir that deliberately seeds no skills —
right for children that install their own, fatal for the PTY family that
TYPES /office-hours or /plan-ceo-review: claude rejects the command as
Unknown before any model turn, so the plan-family gate smokes measure
nothing. hermeticSkillsConfigDir() is a second, opt-in config dir under
the same runRoot that mirrors ./setup's registration exactly (real dir
per registry name, SKILL.md + sections/ symlinks, frontmatter-name
resolution, _gstack-command root alias), driven by the shared
skill-census so connect-chrome's dir symlink collapses the same way
setup's idempotent overwrite does.

Ported from fork commit 03c4eca2, tree walk rewritten for the upstream
layout (top-level <skill>/SKILL.md dirs, no skills/ tree). Unit tests
are new: seed shape, census parity, symlink resolution, connect-chrome
collapse, idempotence, no-API-key seed.

* feat(evals): seedSkills opt-in for PTY slash-command tests + tripwire

Wire ClaudePtyOptions.seedSkills through launchClaudePty: when set (and
hermetic, and no per-test CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR override), the child gets
hermeticSkillsConfigDir() so typed /skill slash commands resolve instead
of dying as Unknown command before any model turn. Opted in at the three
runPlanSkill* helpers and the four direct-launch slash-command tests
(plan-design-with-ui, plan-ceo-mode-routing, autoplan-chain,
ship-idempotency).

New static tripwire (test/pty-skill-seeding-wiring.test.ts): any test
file that sends a slash command over the PTY must route through a
runPlanSkill* helper or pass seedSkills: true — an unseeded slash-command
test spends money and measures nothing. hermetic-wiring.test.ts now
blesses the repo-tree seeding path explicitly (config dir under runRoot,
symlinks into the repo checkout, never operator ~/.claude).

The CI "Register gstack skills for PTY smoke" step keeps a keep-me note:
container cross-mount symlinks defeat the TUI scanner and HOME is not
hermeticized, so the real-file copies there must survive this change.

* refactor(evals): single shared paid-test-set module

test/helpers/paid-test-set.ts is now the one definition of which test
files are paid (the exact globs package.json's test:gate expands).
scripts/test-free-shards.ts derives its free/paid exclusion from it
instead of a private regex list, dropping the dead
browse/test/security-review-fullstack.test.ts pattern (file no longer
exists). The sharded paid runner derives its enumeration from the same
module, so a file added to one list can no longer silently miss the
other.

* feat(evals): env-driven lazy eval dir + shard-aware store and tooling

Importing eval-store no longer spawns the gstack-slug subprocess: the
module-level DEFAULT_EVAL_DIR constant is now a memoized defaultEvalDir()
resolved at collector construction. Resolution order: explicit
constructor arg, then GSTACK_EVAL_DIR, then slug detection — so the
sharded paid runner can point each shard child at its own
<evalDir>/shards/<slug>/ dir with plain env, no --preload.

Runs collected under a shards/ subdir record their slug in the eval
JSON (EvalResult.shard). findPreviousRun scans one shards/<slug>/ level
and prefers same-slug priors, so each shard baselines against its own
history instead of whichever shard flushed last. eval:list,
eval:summary, and eval:compare enumerate the same one level of shard
subdirs; eval:compare's no-arg mode also stops picking an in-progress
accumulator as the after-run.

eval-watch stays flat (documented follow-up): it tails a single dir for
live progress and gains nothing from per-shard baselines until the
runner emits a merged stream.

* feat(evals): sharded paid tier runner

scripts/test-paid-shards.ts runs the gate/periodic tier one Bun process
per test file, with an EXTERNAL wall-clock timeout that SIGKILLs the
shard's detached process group and an aggregate that distinguishes
passed / failed / timed-out / never-started — partial execution can no
longer read as a pass. Bun's native --shard/--isolate covers none of
this: no process-group kill (hung claude/codex PTY grandchildren
survive in-process isolation), no never-started taxonomy, no per-shard
env. Each shard child gets GSTACK_EVAL_DIR=<evalDir>/shards/<slug>/
(slug = test filename sans extension, stable across runs) so shard
baselines compare against their own prior runs.

Output classification lives in scripts/test-strict-output.ts (strict
exit-code derivation, incremental fail-line classifier, child signal
forwarding) so the runner and any future strict bun-test wrapper share
one implementation. Enumeration derives from the shared paid-test-set
module; tier exclusion fires only on an explicit whole-file
EVALS_TIER === '<other>' guard.

package.json gains test:gate:sharded / test:periodic:sharded, and
eval:bg:gate / eval:bg:periodic now run the sharded scripts with detach
timeouts sized to the worst case (gate: 49 shards x 30min / 4 jobs ~
6.2h -> 25200s; periodic: 59 -> 28800s).

test/paid-shards.test.ts pins enumeration, tier classification, and the

* feat(security): hash-chained egress receipt ledger (core)

Port lib/egress-receipt from the v2 fork as TypeScript: writeReceipt
(sync, fail-closed via typed EGRESS_RECEIPT_FAILED), best-effort
writeOutcome, readLedger/listReceipts/verifyLedger, GSTACK_HOME ->
GSTACK_STATE_DIR -> ~/.gstack resolution, 0600 ledger under a 0700
security dir, and an mkdir spin lock (2.5s budget) with documented
>10s-mtime stale-lock reclaim.

Changes vs the fork:
- lastRawLine tail-reads the final 4KB instead of loading the whole
  ledger, so appends stay O(1) as the file grows.
- WARN-at-size: past 25MB writeReceipt emits one self-explanatory
  stderr warning per process (what the ledger is, how to inspect it,
  rotation TODO); verifyLedger gains a sizeWarning field. Rotation
  TODO carries the chain-genesis sketch (new generation's first record
  embeds the prior file's tail hash).

bin/gstack-egress-receipt is a bun script bridging shell callers:
write|outcome subcommands, exit 3 + EGRESS_RECEIPT_FAILED on stderr on
failure; --no-payload records sha256:null for git-class ops.

* chore(bin): delete dead brain-consumer/reader scripts

bin/gstack-brain-consumer and bin/gstack-brain-reader are byte-identical
dead scripts that POST the repo URL + a Bearer token to a /ingest-repo
endpoint gbrain removed (docs/gbrain-sync.md already documents the
removal in past tense). No live references remain; CHANGELOG mentions
are historical.

* feat(security): shared shell receipt helpers

bin/gstack-egress-lib.sh (sourced library, gstack-gbrain-lib.sh
precedent) provides _receipted_curl and _receipted_git: write the
egress receipt BEFORE the send via gstack-egress-receipt, hand curl the
SAME payload file via --data-binary @file so the receipt hash matches
the wire bytes exactly, then append a best-effort outcome. Per-call
fail policy: 'closed' refuses the send (return 3, problem/cause/fix
message on stderr) and 'open' warns and proceeds. Payload temp files
are consumed immediately per call — no EXIT traps, since callers like
gstack-telemetry-sync own their own EXIT trap and a sourced trap would
clobber it.

Tested end-to-end against a local Bun.serve listener: receipt sha256
equals the sha256 of the bytes the listener received, fail-closed
refusal never touches the network and carries the problem/cause/fix
stderr shape, fail-open warns and proceeds.

* feat(security): receipt core shell sinks

Wire the three core bash egress sinks through gstack-egress-lib.sh:

- gstack-telemetry-sync: the batch POST now writes the payload to a
  temp file, receipts those exact bytes fail-closed, and hands curl the
  SAME file. On refusal nothing is sent and the cursor does not
  advance, so the batch stays buffered for the next run. The HTTP
  status is recorded as the receipt outcome.
- gstack-update-check: fail-open receipts (warn + proceed) on the
  Supabase ping POST, both VERSION curls (via a local
  _receipted_version_fetch helper that skips non-network schemes), and
  git ls-remote. The ping receipt is written inside the backgrounded
  subshell, so it can never block the script's exit.
- gstack-brain-sync: fail-closed git-class receipts. The push receipt
  is written BEFORE the commit consumes the queue, so a refused receipt
  leaves the queue intact and the next run retries the whole drain
  (pinned by a new queue-intact-on-refusal test, including the
  problem/cause/fix refusal message shape). The retry-path fetch and
  retry push carry their own fail-closed receipts.

* feat(security): receipt TS module sinks + tunnel

writeReceipt (fail-closed, sha256:null — a subprocess or SDK owns the
wire bytes) before every TS-module network-bearing operation:

- bin/gstack-gbrain-sync.ts: before the gbrain code walk that ships
  repo content to the user's gbrain DB (may be remote Postgres). A
  refused receipt fails the stage with status refused-egress-receipt.
- bin/gstack-memory-ingest.ts: before the gbrain batch import of
  transcript pages. A refused receipt returns a system_error verdict
  without spawning the import.
- browse/src/server.ts: before both ngrok.forward call sites (start-up
  BROWSE_TUNNEL=1 path and the /tunnel/start endpoint). A receipt
  failure lands in the existing catch that tears the tunnel listener
  back down and refuses the start.

* feat(design): receipted fetch for OpenAI calls

design/src/receipted-fetch.ts wraps every api.openai.com call: a
content-free egress receipt (sink design-openai, sha256 of the JSON
body — hash only, never the body) is written BEFORE the send. Polarity
is FAIL-OPEN: user-facing generation must not die because an audit log
hiccuped, so a receipt failure warns on stderr and the call proceeds.
Streams pass through untouched (response bodies returned as-is;
non-string request bodies receipted as sha256:null rather than drained
to hash).

All ten call sites converted with per-command payload classes:
generate, variants (injected fetchFn passes through), iterate (both
threaded and fresh paths), evolve (image + screenshot analysis), check,
diff, design-to-code, memory.

Unit-tested with injected fetch: receipt-before-send ordering, stream
passthrough, and fail-open on an unwritable ledger.

* feat(security): receipt admin scripts + user git-ops (zero exceptions)

Wire the remaining shell egress through gstack-egress-lib.sh:

- gstack-gbrain-mcp-verify: both JSON-RPC probe POSTs (initialize +
  tools/list) receipted fail-closed via payload files (hash == wire
  bytes). A refused receipt lands in the NETWORK class — no send.
- gstack-security-dashboard / gstack-community-dashboard: the
  community-pulse GETs receipted fail-open (read-only stats must not
  break over an audit hiccup).
- gstack-gbrain-supabase-provision: api_call receipted fail-closed.
  Each retry attempt hands the helper a fresh copy of the body file
  (the helper consumes its payload). The receipt hashes the request
  body only — the PAT never reaches the ledger or any log. Refusal
  exits 8 without retrying.
- git-class sha256:null receipts, fail-open: gstack-artifacts-init
  (ls-remote, initial push, fetch/pull recovery, retry push),
  gstack-brain-restore (staging clone, existing-repo fetch),
  gstack-session-update (self-update pull).

gstack-team-init needs no wiring: every git clone in it is inside an
echoed instruction string, not an executed command.

The lib now self-locates with shell builtins only (no dirname), so
sourcing works under the whitelist-PATH test harnesses.

* test(security): egress wiring tripwire + polarity contract

Static-grep tripwire pinning the egress-receipt wiring (threat model in
the header: the ledger is forensic observability of ATTEMPTED egress,
not an exfiltration control):

- Per-sink assertions: every wired TS module imports egress-receipt and
  calls writeReceipt; every wired shell sink sources
  gstack-egress-lib.sh with each network op under a receipt;
  ngrok-proximity check for server.ts; every design api.openai.com call
  routes through receiptedFetch.
- Absence assertions: the dead brain-consumer/reader scripts stay
  deleted (lstat, so a dangling symlink also fails).
- Polarity table pinned as data (fail-closed: brain-sync,
  memory-ingest, gbrain-sync, telemetry-sync, ngrok, mcp-verify,
  supabase-provision; fail-open: design-openai, update-check,
  dashboards, git-class user ops, context-bill --exact) plus per-file
  polarity spot-checks.
- NEW-SINK SCANNER with zero KNOWN_UNWIRED: sweeps bin/, lib/,
  scripts/, design/src, browse/src for curl, absolute-URL fetch(, and
  git remote ops (never local rev-parse/get-url; heredoc bodies and
  message strings excluded) and requires every hit to be receipted or
  in a REASONED exemption list where each entry carries its why.
  Preamble-generated skill prose documented out-of-scope in the header.
- Shebang tripwire: no bin/gstack-* file may carry a node shebang.

* feat(cli): gstack-egress reader

bin/gstack-egress (bun) — the auditor's view of the receipts ledger:

- list: one row per receipt (what gstack ATTEMPTED to send), with
  --since/--host/--sink filters and --json.
- verify: recompute the hash chain; exit 3 on tamper naming the first
  broken line; prints the sizeWarning when the ledger passes 25MB.
- grants: what CAN leave, built on the upstream config keys only
  (telemetry, artifacts_sync_mode, redact_repo_visibility,
  redact_prepush_hook via gstack-config get) — each grant names its
  file, key, and the exact revoke command.

CLI smoke tests spawn the real bin against a temp GSTACK_HOME,
including a broken-chain fixture asserting exit 3.

* feat(cli): context-bill — token bill-of-materials (stripped port)

lib/context-bill.ts, ported from the v2 fork and STRIPPED to the tiers
this repo's skills can exercise: ALWAYS-ON (per-skill frontmatter bytes
with dead-key and foreign-host-file flags), EAGER (SKILL.md + any
forced 'for every invocation' references), on-disk totals, --diff,
--budget, and --exact with the calibration table. The fork's
CONDITIONAL/TRANSITIVE/LAZY/FAST-PATH parsers understand only its
dispatcher layout and were dropped; the tier fields stay in the report
shape (empty/zero/null) so re-adding a parser is additive.
TOKEN_DIVISORS and their provenance docblock kept; --help notes
recalibration via --exact's calibration block.

Three upstream fixes over the fork:
(a) findSkillDirs treats the walk ROOT as a container — the repo root's
    router SKILL.md is billed AND its children are walked (the fork
    short-circuited and billed one skill); walkMd skips node_modules
    and dot-directories.
(b) installed-tree layout: subdirs that are their own repo checkout
    (a gstack/ clone inside ~/.claude/skills, detected by .git) are
    skipped, and directory symlinks (connect-chrome) are followed with
    a container-recursion cycle guard.
(c) ROUTER_KEYS widened to the upstream frontmatter contract {name,
    description, version, allowed-tools, triggers, preamble-tier}.

--exact writes an egress receipt (sink context-bill-exact, host
api.anthropic.com) BEFORE any count_tokens POST; if the receipt cannot
be written the run degrades to the offline estimate with a warning —
nothing is sent unrecorded. bin/gstack-context-bill is the bun shim.

Tests: fixture-tree ledgers, the three fixes, --diff/--budget exit
codes, --exact with injected fetch (envelope subtraction, receipt
ordering, fail-open degradation), CLI smoke test, and ground truth
against THIS repo via test/helpers/skill-census.ts.

* test(catalog): aggregate discovery-surface budget with ratchet protocol

Every host loads every skill's frontmatter name + description at
discovery, every session. applyCatalogTrim in scripts/gen-skill-docs.ts
shapes each description and the 160KB per-file warn covers body size,
but nothing capped the aggregate frontmatter — the catalog could grow
one reasonable-looking description at a time. This test is that
enforcement layer.

Measures the catalog via test/helpers/skill-census.ts authoredSkills
(symlink-deduped, root router counted separately as the _gstack-command
alias line item): 53 skills + router = 4,420 bytes = 1,105
token-equivalents today, asserted <= 1,150 (~4% headroom). Per-skill
sub-cap of 260 bytes (largest today: design-consultation at 229), plus
a non-empty-description check.

Failure messages are self-service ratchets: they print the new total,
the delta, and the update protocol (bump the constant AND the
derivation comment in the same commit; trim instead of grow for
existing descriptions). Parser handles folded block scalars
(description: >-) for fork parity; import-free by design so it
survives generator refactors.

* fix(browse): extension token bootstrap moves to pinned-origin POST; /health carries no token

GET /health is now liveness/status only in every mode — both token
carve-outs (headed-mode disjunct AND chrome-extension:// Origin
disjunct) are removed. Token bootstrap is POST /extension-token on the
local listener: the Origin header must be exactly
chrome-extension://<GSTACK_EXTENSION_ID> and the Host header's hostname
must parse to 127.0.0.1 or localhost (parsed via new URL, never literal
equality — Host arrives as '127.0.0.1:34567'). Wrong origin/host → 403
with no detail. The tunnel surface 404s the endpoint (not in
TUNNEL_PATHS, verified by test).

The extension ID is pinned by a new "key" field (RSA public key) in
extension/manifest.json; browse/scripts/extension-id.ts reproduces the
ID derivation (first 16 bytes of SHA-256 of the DER public key, hex
mapped 0-9a-f → a-p). The private key is not committed anywhere —
unpacked/baked-in loads only need the public key.

Extension side: background.js bootstraps and refreshes the token via
POST /extension-token (403 → disconnected state); sidepanel.js direct
connect path does the same; sidepanel-terminal.js's dead /health token
fallback (read AUTH_TOKEN/authToken keys the server never sent,
hardcoded port) is replaced with the window.gstackAuthToken path.

MIGRATION NOTE: the manifest key pins the extension ID, so existing
installs' side-panel local state (saved port, snoozes) resets once —
explained in-product via a one-time notice (flag
gstack_id_migrated_v162). After upgrading the server, restart the
browser so the old service worker stops polling for a token GET /health
no longer serves.

* docs: correct stale compiled-binaries claim; file three egress/eval follow-ups

CLAUDE.md's compiled-binaries section claimed browse/dist binaries are
tracked by git and appear as modified in git status — false since
64d5a3e4 (v0.11.16.0) untracked them, and actively harmful: it trained
agents to ignore dist binaries in git status. The section now states
the truth (untracked + gitignored; a dist binary in git status means
someone force-added it) and covers make-pdf/dist too.

TODOS.md gains the three follow-ups filed by the v1.62 port-wave
reviews: ledger rotation with chain-genesis records, launch-nonce
token bootstrap, and eval-watch shard-awareness.

* fix: pre-landing review fixes for the v2 port wave

Review army (checklist + 5 specialists) + coverage/plan audits on the
assembled branch. Genuine correctness/security/hygiene fixes:

- test-paid-shards: strictTestExitCode now receives expectedFiles on the
  real bun path, so a shard that runs fewer files than planned (harness
  crash, nothing loaded) with exit 0 is no longer recorded 'passed' — the
  invisible-non-execution class the runner exists to kill. Pinned by the
  new test/strict-output.test.ts (also covers the chunk-boundary classifier).
- test-paid-shards: EVALS_TIER env is validated (gate|periodic) like the
  --tier flag, so a typo can't self-skip every test and exit 0 green.
- package.json: test:periodic:sharded sets EVALS_ALL=1, restoring the
  full-tier semantics the pre-shard script had (CI already set it; local
  eval:bg:periodic silently under-measured without it).
- brain-sync.test: run() pins HOME to the temp home so gstack-artifacts-init
  stops writing/clobbering the operator's real ~/.gstack-artifacts-remote.txt
  every free-suite run; afterEach now also scrubs the current filename.
- egress-receipt: cap each receipt field at 512B so a serialized line always
  fits the 4KB tail-read window — a longer line would make the next append
  hash a truncated prior line and verifyLedger report a permanent false
  TAMPER. warnLedgerSize short-circuits before statSync once fired (append
  hot path).
- gstack-egress: import.meta.dir (Windows-safe) instead of new URL().pathname
  so grants doesn't silently report defaults on Windows; strip control chars
  from ledger-derived fields on render so a crafted receipt can't spoof the
  auditor's view.
- extension/background.js + CLAUDE.md: renumber the identity-pin migration
  refs v1.62 -> v1.63 (main claimed 1.62.0.0; this wave queue-advances).
- egress-receipt-wiring: pin lib/context-bill.ts unconditionally (both land
  together now); drop the dead RunShardsOptions.tier field.

All fix-affected test files green; gate failures triaged as external-env
(codex/gemini CLI drift) or pre-existing (hermetic-canary fails identically
on base). Deferred polish tracked in the PR body + decision store.

* docs: file TODO to harden plan-design-with-ui PTY detection

The v1.63 seedSkills change made this gate test execute for the first

PTY buffer. Shipped skill behavior is correct — test-harness limitation.

* chore: re-slot release as v1.62.1.0 (PATCH per user)

Main claimed 1.62.0.0 while the wave was in flight; the user chose the
PATCH slot over queue-advancing MINOR. Renumbers the identity-pin
migration notice (now version-free flag name so a re-slot never orphans
an already-set flag), the CLAUDE.md /health note, the CHANGELOG heading,
and the TODOS section titles.

* fix(test): stop hard-requiring the literal ok) case label in gbrain-refresh guards

The extractor grepped for 'ok)' but the case label grew to
ok|timeout|thin-client) (#1964, #2051), so the whole file errored on

canary exactly when isolation succeeds. Defaulted expansions assert
identically under any shell. Fails identically on base; fixed here.

* fix(evals): absorb codex/gemini CLI drift; external-service tests go periodic-tier

- codex exec gains --skip-git-repo-check: newer CLIs refuse exec in an
  untrusted non-git dir (our temp skill dirs) — empirically verified.
- gemini: --skip-trust was removed in gemini-cli 0.34 (argv parse error);
  dropped from the session runner and the benchmark adapter. A present-
  but-unusable CLI (deprecated individual code-assist auth path) now
  classifies as SKIP, not a false adapter failure; the benchmark live
  smoke skips on auth/rate_limit error codes (environmental) while still
  failing on timeout/unknown (the drift classes it exists to catch).
- codex-e2e, gemini-e2e, and benchmark-providers gain the canonical
  whole-file EVALS_TIER === 'periodic' guard per CLAUDE.md tiering rule 3
  (external service -> periodic) — the sharded gate runner now excludes
  all three (gate: 45 -> 42 shards).

* fix(evals): parse single-logical-line AskUserQuestions in the PTY runner

When the PTY reflows a boxed AUQ, ALL options land on ONE logical line
after stripAnsi — parseNumberedOptions parsed one option per line, found
only '1.', and the >=2 check failed forever while the correct question
sat on screen (plan-design-with-ui timed out this way twice, with the
rendered scope-gate AUQ visible in both failure buffers). The cursor
line is now parsed as a stream of ascending N. tokens; DEC cursor-
visibility residue is stripped before matching; plan-design-with-ui's
budgets grow to fit observed ~6min preamble+thinking latency. Pinned by
test/pty-auq-single-line.test.ts using the real failure buffers; all 142
existing parser-consumer unit tests still green.

The wave ships new capability (egress receipts + two CLIs, sharded paid

* docs: sync every doc surface with the v1.63 release

/document-release audit (4-lane, all claims verified against branch code):

  egress framing per the shipped threat model).
- ARCHITECTURE: /health is liveness-only, POST /extension-token endpoint row
  + bootstrap mechanics paragraph; new Egress receipt ledger subsection under
  Security model; eval persistence covers the sharded runner, GSTACK_EVAL_DIR,
  and the finalized-run baseline rule.
- CLAUDE.md: sharded test scripts in Commands; sharded semantics in the
  detached-evals section; PTY skill seeding in the hermetic section; egress
  invariant block beside the other server-egress invariants; catalog-budget
  ceiling beside the 160KB token ceiling; project-tree entries for
  lib/egress-receipt.ts, lib/context-bill.ts, scripts/test-paid-shards.ts.
- CONTRIBUTING: seedSkills + live-tree seeding in the hermetic paragraph;
  sharded runner in detached runs; catalog-budget in the Tier 1 list.
- BROWSER: extension token bootstrap section, tunnel egress receipts section,
  identity-pin migration note in manual install.
- REMOTE_BROWSER_ACCESS: tunnel-start receipt bullet in the security model.
- gbrain docs: /sync-gbrain + brain-sync egress-receipt behavior documented;
  dead consumer-token instructions removed (consumer machinery deleted this
  release); new fail-closed refusal added to the error catalog.
- CHANGELOG: measured-vs-ceiling catalog numbers, contributor notes for the
  external-service tier move and the PTY single-line AskUserQuestion parser,
  release date.
- TODOS: /health token-distribution TODO resolved by this release, removed;
  port-wave follow-up sections re-labeled to the shipped version.

* docs: sweep drift that predates this release

Surfaced by the /document-release audit; every fix verified against the
current binaries:

- gstack-brain-init was replaced by gstack-artifacts-init in v1.27.0.0
  (hard-delete, no compat shim), but README, USING_GBRAIN_WITH_GSTACK,
  docs/gbrain-sync.md, and docs/gbrain-sync-errors.md still instructed
  users to run it — command-not-found on every follow. Same sweep updates
  ~/.gstack-brain-remote.txt to the canonical ~/.gstack-artifacts-remote.txt
  (legacy name still honored on restore, noted where users copy the file).
- gbrain-sync-errors.md headings re-matched to the literal messages the
  binaries print today (the doc's whole value is grep-by-exact-message):
  'gstack-artifacts-init: ~/.gstack/ is already a git repo pointing at:',
  'Remote not reachable via SSH:', 'Failed to create or find ...'. The
  already-a-repo fix now leads with the command's own set-url suggestion.
- docs/gbrain-sync.md 'Under the hood' linked a plan file that does not
  exist in the repo; replaced with the decisions themselves.
- SIDEBAR_MESSAGE_FLOW startup timeline: /pty-session responds with
  {terminalPort, sessionId, attachToken, leaseExpiresAt} (v1.44 shape,
  verified at browse/src/server.ts:1860), not the retired
  {terminalPort, ptySessionToken} pair.

* docs: fold the Codex accuracy review of the release docs

Six findings, all verified against source before fixing:

1. 'Every send writes a receipt' overclaimed — fail-open sinks proceed with
   a stderr warning when the receipt write fails, so a fail-open send can go
   unrecorded (lib/egress-receipt.ts:8-14). Descriptive prose now says so;
   the receipted framing keeps 'attempted'.
2. 'Receipts hash the request body' is wrong for subprocess-owned sends —
   git pushes record sha256: null (lib/egress-receipt.ts:71).
3. 'grants shows every consent in force' overclaimed — it reports the four
   standing config settings (bin/gstack-egress:139-181). Reworded in
   README, ARCHITECTURE, and the CHANGELOG entry.
4. 'Zero-exception scanner' vs reality: the new-sink scanner carries a
   reasoned SCANNER_EXEMPT list (user-directed fetches, probes, instruction
   strings, skill prose). CLAUDE.md now names it.
5. Error-catalog cause/fix for the receipt refusal: the writer mkdirs the
   ledger dir itself, so 'missing' isn't a cause and bare chmod fails when
   it is absent — cause reworded, fix is mkdir -p && chmod.
6. gbrain-sync first-run steps described the retired binary's behavior:
   default repo is gstack-artifacts-$USER, and init PRINTS the gbrain
   hookup command (never auto-executes; bin/gstack-artifacts-init:384-419).
