Garry Tan d0782c4c4d feat(v1.4.0.0): /make-pdf — markdown to publication-quality PDFs (#1086)
* feat(browse): full $B pdf flag contract + tab-scoped load-html/js/pdf

Grow $B pdf from a 2-line wrapper (hard-coded A4) into a real PDF engine
frontend so make-pdf can shell out to it without duplicating Playwright:

- pdf: --format, --width/--height, --margins, --margin-*, --header-template,
  --footer-template, --page-numbers, --tagged, --outline, --print-background,
  --prefer-css-page-size, --toc. Mutex rules enforced. --from-file <json>
  dodges Windows argv limits (8191 char CreateProcess cap).
- load-html: add --from-file <json> mode for large inline HTML. Size + magic
  byte checks still apply to the inline content, not the payload file path.
- newtab: add --json returning {"tabId":N,"url":...} for programmatic use.
- cli: extract --tab-id flag and route as body.tabId to the HTTP layer so
  parallel callers can target specific tabs without racing on the active
  tab (makes make-pdf's per-render tab isolation possible).
- --toc: non-fatal 3s wait for window.__pagedjsAfterFired. Paged.js ships
  later; v1 renders TOC statically via the markdown renderer.

Codex round 2 flagged these P0 issues during plan review. All resolved.

* feat(resolvers): add MAKE_PDF_SETUP + makePdfDir host paths

Skill templates can now embed {{MAKE_PDF_SETUP}} to resolve $P to the
make-pdf binary via the same discovery order as $B / $D: env override
(MAKE_PDF_BIN), local skill root, global install, or PATH.

Mirrors the pattern established by generateBrowseSetup() and
generateDesignSetup() in scripts/resolvers/design.ts.

* feat(make-pdf): new /make-pdf skill + orchestrator binary

Turn markdown into publication-quality PDFs. $P generate input.md out.pdf
produces a PDF with 1in margins, intelligent page breaks, page numbers,
running header, CONFIDENTIAL footer, and curly quotes/em dashes — all on
Helvetica so copy-paste extraction works ("S ai li ng" bug avoided).

Architecture (per Codex round 2):
  markdown → render.ts (marked + sanitize + smartypants) → orchestrator
    → $B newtab --json → $B load-html --tab-id → $B js (poll Paged.js)
    → $B pdf --tab-id → $B closetab

browseClient.ts shells out to the compiled browse CLI rather than
duplicating Playwright. --tab-id isolation per render means parallel
$P generate calls don't race on the active tab. try/finally tab cleanup
survives Paged.js timeouts, browser crashes, and output-path failures.

Features in v1:
  --cover              left-aligned cover page (eyebrow + title + hairline rule)
  --toc                clickable static TOC (Paged.js page numbers deferred)
  --watermark <text>   diagonal DRAFT/CONFIDENTIAL layer
  --no-chapter-breaks  opt out of H1-starts-new-page
  --page-numbers       "N of M" footer (default on)
  --tagged --outline   accessible PDF + bookmark outline (default on)
  --allow-network      opt in to external image loading (default off for privacy)
  --quiet --verbose    stderr control

Design decisions locked from the /plan-design-review pass:
  - Helvetica everywhere (Chromium emits single-word Tj operators for
    system fonts; bundled webfonts emit per-glyph and break extraction).
  - Left-aligned body, flush-left paragraphs, no text-indent, 12pt gap.
  - Cover shares 1in margins with body pages; no flexbox-center, no
    inset padding.
  - The reference HTMLs at .context/designs/*.html are the implementation
    source of truth for print-css.ts.

Tests (56 unit + 1 E2E combined-features gate):
  - smartypants: code/URL-safe, verified against 10 fixtures
  - sanitizer: strips <script>/<iframe>/on*/javascript: URLs
  - render: HTML assembly, CJK fallback, cover/TOC/chapter wrap
  - print-css: all @page rules, margin variants, watermark
  - pdftotext: normalize()+copyPasteGate() cross-OS tolerance
  - browseClient: binary resolution + typed error propagation
  - combined-features gate (P0): 2-chapter fixture with smartypants +
    hyphens + ligatures + bold/italic + inline code + lists + blockquote
    passes through PDF → pdftotext → expected.txt diff

Deferred to Phase 4 (future PR): Paged.js vendored for accurate TOC page
numbers, highlight.js for syntax highlighting, drop caps, pull quotes,
two-column, CMYK, watermark visual-diff acceptance.

* chore(build): wire make-pdf into build/test/setup/bin + add marked dep

- package.json: compile make-pdf/dist/pdf as part of bun run build; add
  "make-pdf" to bin entry; include make-pdf/test/ in the free test pass;
  add marked@18.0.2 as a dep (markdown parser, ~40KB).
- setup: add make-pdf/dist/pdf to the Apple Silicon codesign loop.
- .gitignore: add make-pdf/dist/ (matches browse/dist/ and design/dist/).

* ci(make-pdf): matrix copy-paste gate on Ubuntu + macOS

Runs the combined-features P0 gate on pull requests that touch make-pdf/
or browse's PDF surface. Installs poppler (macOS) / poppler-utils (Ubuntu)
per OS. Windows deferred to tolerant mode (Xpdf / Poppler-Windows
extraction variance not yet calibrated against the normalized comparator —
Codex round 2 #18).

* docs(skills): regenerate SKILL.md for make-pdf addition + browse pdf flags

bun run gen:skill-docs picks up:
  - the new /make-pdf skill (make-pdf/SKILL.md)
  - updated browse command descriptions for 'pdf', 'load-html', 'newtab'
    reflecting the new flag contract and --from-file mode

Source of truth stays the .tmpl files + COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS;
these are regenerated artifacts.

* fix(tests): repair stale test expectations + emit _EXPLAIN_LEVEL / _QUESTION_TUNING from preamble

Three pre-existing test failures on main were blocking /ship:

- test/skill-validation.test.ts "Step 3.4 test coverage audit" expected the
  literal strings "CODE PATH COVERAGE" and "USER FLOW COVERAGE" which were
  removed when the Step 7 coverage diagram was compressed. Updated assertions
  to check the stable `Code paths:` / `User flows:` labels that still ship.

- test/skill-validation.test.ts "ship step numbering" allowed-substeps list
  didn't include 15.0 (WIP squash) and 15.1 (bisectable commits) which were
  added for continuous checkpoint mode. Extended the allowlist.

- test/writing-style-resolver.test.ts and test/plan-tune.test.ts expected
  `_EXPLAIN_LEVEL` and `_QUESTION_TUNING` bash variables in the preamble but
  generate-preamble-bash.ts had been refactored and those lines were dropped.
  Without them, downstream skills can't read `explain_level` or
  `question_tuning` config at runtime — terse mode and /plan-tune features
  were silently broken.

Added the two bash echo blocks back to generatePreambleBash and refreshed
the golden-file fixtures to match. All three preamble-related golden
baselines (claude/codex/factory) are synchronized with the new output.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v1.4.0.0)

New /make-pdf skill + $P binary.

Turn any markdown file into a publication-quality PDF. Default output is
a 1in-margin Helvetica letter with page numbers in the footer. `--cover`
adds a left-aligned cover page, `--toc` generates a clickable table of
contents, `--watermark DRAFT` overlays a diagonal watermark. Copy-paste
extraction from the PDF produces clean words, not "S a i l i n g"
spaced out letter by letter. CI gate (macOS + Ubuntu) runs a combined-
features fixture through pdftotext on every PR.

make-pdf shells out to browse rather than duplicating Playwright.
$B pdf grew into a real PDF engine with full flag contract (--format,
--margins, --header-template, --footer-template, --page-numbers,
--tagged, --outline, --toc, --tab-id, --from-file). $B load-html and
$B js gained --tab-id. $B newtab --json returns structured output.

* docs(changelog): rewrite v1.4.0.0 headline — positive voice, no VC framing

The original headline led with "a PDF you wouldn't be embarrassed to send
to a VC": double-negative voice and audience-too-narrow. /make-pdf works
for essays, letters, memos, reports, proposals, and briefs. Framing the
whole release around founders-to-investors misses the wider audience.

New headline: "Turn any markdown file into a PDF that looks finished."
New tagline: "This one reads like a real essay or a real letter."

Positive voice. Broader aperture. Same energy.

Garry Tan 22a4451e0e feat(v1.3.0.0): open agents learnings + cross-model benchmark skill (#1040)
* chore: regenerate stale ship golden fixtures

Golden fixtures were missing the VENDORED_GSTACK preamble section that
landed on main. Regression tests failed on all three hosts (claude, codex,
factory). Regenerated from current preamble output.

No code changes, unblocks test suite.

* feat: anti-slop design constraints + delete duplicate constants

Tightens design-consultation and design-shotgun to push back on the
convergence traps every AI design tool falls into.

Changes:
- scripts/resolvers/constants.ts: add "system-ui as primary font" to
  AI_SLOP_BLACKLIST. Document Space Grotesk as the new "safe alternative
  to Inter" convergence trap alongside the existing overused fonts.
- scripts/gen-skill-docs.ts: delete duplicate AI slop constants block
  (dead code — scripts/resolvers/constants.ts is the live source).
  Prevents drift between the two definitions.
- design-consultation/SKILL.md.tmpl: add Space Grotesk + system-ui to
  overused/slop lists. Add "anti-convergence directive" — vary across
  generations in the same project. Add Phase 1 "memorable-thing forcing
  question" (what's the one thing someone will remember?). Add Phase 5
  "would a human designer be embarrassed by this?" self-gate before
  presenting variants.
- design-shotgun/SKILL.md.tmpl: anti-convergence directive — each
  variant must use a different font, palette, and layout. If two
  variants look like siblings, one of them failed.

* feat: context health soft directive in preamble (T2+)

Adds a "periodically self-summarize" nudge to long-running skills.
Soft directive only — no thresholds, no enforcement, no auto-commit.

Goal: self-awareness during /qa, /investigate, /cso etc. If you notice
yourself going in circles, STOP and reassess instead of thrashing.

Codex review caught that fake precision thresholds (15/30/45 tool calls)
were unimplementable — SKILL.md is a static prompt, not runtime code.
This ships the soft version only.

Changes:
- scripts/resolvers/preamble.ts: add generateContextHealth(), wire into
  T2+ tier. Format: [PROGRESS] ... summary line. Explicit rule that
  progress reporting must never mutate git state.
- All T2+ skill SKILL.md files regenerated to include the new section.
- Golden ship fixtures updated (T4 skill, picks up the change).

* feat: model overlays with explicit --model flag (no auto-detect)

Adds a per-model behavioral patch layer orthogonal to the host axis.
Different LLMs have different tendencies (GPT won't stop, Gemini
over-explains, o-series wants structured output). Overlays nudge each
model toward better defaults for gstack workflows.

Codex review caught three landmines the prior reviews missed:
1. Host != model — Claude Code can run any Claude model, Codex runs
   GPT/o-series, Cursor fronts multiple providers. Auto-detecting from
   host would lie. Dropped auto-detect. --model is explicit (default
   claude). Missing overlay file → empty string (graceful).
2. Import cycle — putting Model in resolvers/types.ts would cycle
   through hosts/index. Created neutral scripts/models.ts instead.
3. "Final say" is dangerous — overlay at the end of preamble could
   override STOP points, AskUserQuestion gates, /ship review gates.
   Placed overlay after spawned-session-check but before voice + tier
   sections. Wrapper heading adds explicit subordination language on
   every overlay: "subordinate to skill workflow, STOP points,
   AskUserQuestion gates, plan-mode safety, and /ship review gates."

Changes:
- scripts/models.ts: new neutral module. ALL_MODEL_NAMES, Model type,
  resolveModel() for family heuristics (gpt-5.4-mini → gpt-5.4, o3 →
  o-series, claude-opus-4-7 → claude), validateModel() helper.
- scripts/resolvers/types.ts: import Model, add ctx.model field.
- scripts/resolvers/model-overlay.ts: new resolver. Reads
  model-overlays/{model}.md. Supports {{INHERIT:base}} directive at
  top of file for concat (gpt-5.4 inherits gpt). Cycle guard.
- scripts/resolvers/index.ts: register MODEL_OVERLAY resolver.
- scripts/resolvers/preamble.ts: wire generateModelOverlay into
  composition before voice. Print MODEL_OVERLAY: {model} in preamble
  bash so users can see which overlay is active. Filter empty sections.
- scripts/gen-skill-docs.ts: parse --model CLI flag. Default claude.
  Unknown model → throw with list of valid options.
- model-overlays/{claude,gpt,gpt-5.4,gemini,o-series}.md: behavioral
  patches per model family. gpt-5.4.md uses {{INHERIT:gpt}} to extend
  gpt.md without duplication.
- test/gen-skill-docs.test.ts: fix qa-only guardrail regex scope.
  Was matching Edit/Glob/Grep anywhere after `allowed-tools:` in the
  whole file. Now scoped to frontmatter only. Body prose (Claude
  overlay references Edit as a tool) correctly no longer breaks it.

Verification:
- bun run gen:skill-docs --host all --dry-run → all fresh
- bun run gen:skill-docs --model gpt-5.4 → concat works, gpt.md +
  gpt-5.4.md content appears in order
- bun run gen:skill-docs --model unknown → errors with valid list
- All generated skills contain MODEL_OVERLAY: claude in preamble
- Golden ship fixtures regenerated

* feat: continuous checkpoint mode with non-destructive WIP squash

Adds opt-in auto-commit during long sessions so work survives Claude
Code crashes, Conductor workspace handoffs, and context switches.
Local-only by default — pushing requires explicit opt-in.

Codex review caught multiple landmines that would have shipped:
1. checkpoint_push=true default would push WIP commits to shared
   branches, trigger CI/deploys, expose secrets. Now default false.
2. Plan's original /ship squash (git reset --soft to merge base) was
   destructive — uncommitted ALL branch commits, not just WIP, and
   caused non-fast-forward pushes. Redesigned: rebase --autosquash
   scoped to WIP commits only, with explicit fallback for WIP-only
   branches and STOP-and-ask for conflicts.
3. gstack-config get returned empty for missing keys with exit 0,
   ignoring the annotated defaults in the header comments. Fixed:
   get now falls back to a lookup_default() table that is the
   canonical source for defaults.
4. Telemetry default mismatched: header said 'anonymous' but runtime
   treated empty as 'off'. Aligned: default is 'off' everywhere.
5. /checkpoint resume only read markdown checkpoint files, not the
   WIP commit [gstack-context] bodies the plan referenced. Wired up
   parsing of [gstack-context] blocks from WIP commits as a second
   recovery trail alongside the markdown checkpoints.

Changes:
- bin/gstack-config: add checkpoint_mode (default explicit) and
  checkpoint_push (default false) to CONFIG_HEADER. Add lookup_default()
  as canonical default source. get() falls back to defaults when key
  absent. list now shows value + source (set/default). New 'defaults'
  subcommand to inspect the table.
- scripts/resolvers/preamble.ts: preamble bash reads _CHECKPOINT_MODE
  and _CHECKPOINT_PUSH, prints CHECKPOINT_MODE: and CHECKPOINT_PUSH: so
  the mode is visible. New generateContinuousCheckpoint() section in
  T2+ tier describes WIP commit format with [gstack-context] body and
  the rules (never git add -A, never commit broken tests, push only
  if opted in). Example deliberately shows a clean-state context so
  it doesn't contradict the rules.
- ship/SKILL.md.tmpl: new Step 5.75 WIP Commit Squash. Detects WIP
  count, exports [gstack-context] blocks before squash (as backup),
  uses rebase --autosquash for mixed branches and soft-reset only when
  VERIFIED WIP-only. Explicit anti-footgun rules against blind soft-
  reset. Aborts with BLOCKED status on conflict instead of destroying
  non-WIP commits.
- checkpoint/SKILL.md.tmpl: new Step 1.5 to parse [gstack-context]
  blocks from WIP commits via git log --grep="^WIP:". Merges with
  markdown checkpoint for fuller session recovery.
- Golden ship fixtures regenerated (ship is T4, preamble change shows up).

* feat: feature discovery flow gated by per-feature markers

Extends generateUpgradeCheck() to surface new features once per user
after a just-upgraded session. No more silent features.

Codex review caught: spawned sessions (OpenClaw, etc.) must skip the
discovery prompt entirely — they can't interactively answer. Feature
discovery now checks SPAWNED_SESSION first and is silent in those.

Discovery is per-feature, not per-upgrade. Each feature has its own
marker file at ~/.claude/skills/gstack/.feature-prompted-{name}. Once
the user has been shown a feature (accepted, shown docs, or skipped),
the marker is touched and the prompt never fires again for that
feature. Future features get their own markers.

V1 features surfaced:
- continuous-checkpoint: offer to enable checkpoint_mode=continuous
- model-overlay: inform-only note about --model flag and MODEL_OVERLAY
  line in preamble output

Max one prompt per session to avoid nagging. Fires only on JUST_UPGRADED
(not every session), plus spawned-session skip.

Changes:
- scripts/resolvers/preamble.ts: extend generateUpgradeCheck() with
  feature discovery rules, per-marker-file semantics, spawned-session
  exclusion, and max-one-per-session cap.
- All skill SKILL.md files regenerated to include the new section.
- Golden ship fixtures regenerated.

* feat: design taste engine with persistent schema

Adds a cross-session taste profile that learns from design-shotgun
approval/rejection decisions. Biases future design-consultation and
design-shotgun proposals toward the user's demonstrated preferences.

Codex review caught that the plan had "taste engine" as a vague goal
without schema, decay, migration, or placeholder insertion points. This
commit ships the full spec.

Schema v1 at ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/taste-profile.json:
- version, updated_at
- dimensions: fonts, colors, layouts, aesthetics — each with approved[]
  and rejected[] preference lists
- sessions: last 50 (FIFO truncation), each with ts/action/variant/reason
- Preference: { value, confidence, approved_count, rejected_count, last_seen }
- Confidence: Laplace-smoothed approved/(total+1)
- Decay: 5% per week of inactivity, computed at read time (not write)

Changes:
- bin/gstack-taste-update: new CLI. Subcommands approved/rejected/show/
  migrate. Parses reason string for dimension signals (e.g.,
  "fonts: Geist; colors: slate; aesthetics: minimal"). Emits taste-drift
  NOTE when a new signal contradicts a strong opposing signal. Legacy
  approved.json aggregates migrate to v1 on next write.
- scripts/resolvers/design.ts: new generateTasteProfile() resolver.
  Produces the prose that skills see: how to read the profile, how to
  factor into proposals, conflict handling, schema migration.
- scripts/resolvers/index.ts: register TASTE_PROFILE and a BIN_DIR
  resolver (returns ctx.paths.binDir, used by templates that shell out
  to gstack-* binaries).
- design-consultation/SKILL.md.tmpl: insert {{TASTE_PROFILE}} placeholder
  in Phase 1 right after the memorable-thing forcing question so the
  Phase 3 proposal can factor in learned preferences.
- design-shotgun/SKILL.md.tmpl: taste memory section now reads
  taste-profile.json via {{TASTE_PROFILE}}, falls back to per-session
  approved.json (legacy). Approval flow documented to call
  gstack-taste-update after user picks/rejects a variant.

Known gap: v1 extracts dimension signals from a reason string passed
by the caller ("fonts: X; colors: Y"). Future v2 can read EXIF or an
accompanying manifest written by design-shotgun alongside each variant
for automatic dimension extraction without needing the reason argument.

* feat: multi-provider model benchmark (boil the ocean)

Adds the full spec Codex asked for: real provider adapters with auth
detection, normalized RunResult, pricing tables, tool compatibility
maps, parallel execution with error isolation, and table/JSON/markdown
output. Judge stays on Anthropic SDK as the single stable source of
quality scoring, gated behind --judge.

Codex flagged the original plan as massively under-scoped — the
existing runner is Claude-only and the judge is Anthropic-only. You
can't benchmark GPT or Gemini without real provider infrastructure.
This commit ships it.

New architecture:

  test/helpers/providers/types.ts       ProviderAdapter interface
  test/helpers/providers/claude.ts      wraps `claude -p --output-format json`
  test/helpers/providers/gpt.ts         wraps `codex exec --json`
  test/helpers/providers/gemini.ts      wraps `gemini -p --output-format stream-json --yolo`
  test/helpers/pricing.ts               per-model USD cost tables (quarterly)
  test/helpers/tool-map.ts              which tools each CLI exposes
  test/helpers/benchmark-runner.ts      orchestrator (Promise.allSettled)
  test/helpers/benchmark-judge.ts       Anthropic SDK quality scorer
  bin/gstack-model-benchmark            CLI entry
  test/benchmark-runner.test.ts         9 unit tests (cost math, formatters, tool-map)

Per-provider error isolation:
  - auth → record reason, don't abort batch
  - timeout → record reason, don't abort batch
  - rate_limit → record reason, don't abort batch
  - binary_missing → record in available() check, skip if --skip-unavailable

Pricing correction: cached input tokens are disjoint from uncached
input tokens (Anthropic/OpenAI report them separately). Original
math subtracted them, producing negative costs. Now adds cached at
the 10% discount alongside the full uncached input cost.

CLI:
  gstack-model-benchmark --prompt "..." --models claude,gpt,gemini
  gstack-model-benchmark ./prompt.txt --output json --judge
  gstack-model-benchmark ./prompt.txt --models claude --timeout-ms 60000

Output formats: table (default), json, markdown. Each shows model,
latency, in→out tokens, cost, quality (when --judge used), tool calls,
and any errors.

Known limitations for v1:
- Claude adapter approximates toolCalls as num_turns (stream-json
  would give exact counts; v2 can upgrade).
- Live E2E tests (test/providers.e2e.test.ts) not included — they
  require CI secrets for all three providers. Unit tests cover the
  shape and math.
- Provider CLIs sometimes return non-JSON error text to stdout; the
  parsers fall back to treating raw output as plain text in that case.

* feat: standalone methodology skill publishing via gstack-publish

Ships the marketplace-distribution half of Item 5 (reframed): publish
the existing standalone OpenClaw methodology skills to multiple
marketplaces with one command.

Codex review caught that the original plan assumed raw generated
multi-host skills could be published directly. They can't — those
depend on gstack binaries, generated host paths, tool names, and
telemetry. The correct artifact class is hand-crafted standalone
skills in openclaw/skills/gstack-openclaw-* (already exist and work
without gstack runtime). This commit adds the wrapper that publishes
them to ClawHub + SkillsMP + Vercel Skills.sh with per-marketplace
error isolation and dry-run validation.

Changes:
- skills.json: root manifest with 4 skills (office-hours, ceo-review,
  investigate, retro) each pointing at its openclaw/skills source.
  Each skill declares per-marketplace targets with a slug, a publish
  flag, and a compatible-hosts list. Marketplace configs include CLI
  name, login command, publish command template (with placeholder
  substitution), docs URL, and auth_check command.
- bin/gstack-publish: new CLI. Subcommands:
    gstack-publish              Publish all skills
    gstack-publish <slug>       Publish one skill
    gstack-publish --dry-run    Validate + auth-check without publishing
    gstack-publish --list       List skills + marketplace targets
  Features:
    * Manifest validation (missing source files, missing slugs, empty
      marketplace list all reported).
    * Per-marketplace auth check before any publish attempt.
    * Per-skill / per-marketplace error isolation: one failure doesn't
      abort the batch.
    * Idempotent — re-running with the same version is safe; markets
      that reject duplicate versions report it as a failure for that
      single target without affecting others.
    * --dry-run walks the full pipeline but skips execSync; useful in
      CI to validate manifest before bumping version.

Tested locally: clawhub auth detected, skillsmp/vercel CLIs not
installed (marked NOT READY and skipped cleanly in dry-run).

Follow-up work (tracked in TODOS.md later):
- Version-bump helper that reads openclaw/skills/*/SKILL.md frontmatter
  and updates skills.json in lockstep.
- CI workflow that runs gstack-publish --dry-run on every PR and
  gstack-publish on tags.

Splits scripts/resolvers/preamble.ts (841 lines, 18 generator functions +

Byte-identity verification (the real gate per Codex correction):
- Before refactor: snapshotted 135 generated SKILL.md files via
  `find -name SKILL.md -type f | grep -v /gstack/` across all hosts.
- After refactor: regenerated with `bun run gen:skill-docs --host all`
  and re-snapshotted.
- `diff -r baseline after` returned zero differences and exit 0.

The `--host all --dry-run` gate passes too. No template or host behavior
changes — purely a code-organization refactor.

Test fix: audit-compliance.test.ts's telemetry check previously grepped
preamble.ts directly for `_TEL != "off"`. After the refactor that logic
lives in preamble/generate-preamble-bash.ts. Test now concatenates all
preamble submodule sources before asserting — tracks the semantic contract,
not the file layout. Doing the minimum rewrite preserves the test's intent
(conditional telemetry) without coupling it to file boundaries.

Why now: we were in-session with full context. Codex had downgraded this
from mandatory to optional, but the preamble had grown to 841 lines and
was getting harder to navigate. User asked "why not?" given the context
was hot. Shipping it as a clean bisectable commit while all the prior
preamble.ts changes are fresh reduces rebase pain later.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.19.0.0)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* chore: trim verbose preamble + coverage audit prose

Compress without removing behavior or voice. Three targeted cuts:

1. scripts/resolvers/testing.ts coverage diagram example: 40 lines → 14
   lines. Two-column ASCII layout instead of stacked sections.
   Preserves all required regression-guard phrases (processPayment,
   refundPayment, billing.test.ts, checkout.e2e.ts, COVERAGE, QUALITY,
   GAPS, Code paths, User flows, ASCII coverage diagram).

2. scripts/resolvers/preamble/generate-completion-status.ts Plan Status
   Footer: was 35 lines with embedded markdown table example, now 7
   lines that describe the table inline. The footer fires only at
   ExitPlanMode time — Claude can construct the placeholder table from
   the inline description without copying a literal example.

3. Same file's Plan Mode Safe Operations + Skill Invocation During Plan
   Mode sections compressed from ~25 lines combined to ~12. Preserves
   all required test phrases (precedence over generic plan mode behavior,
   Do not continue the workflow, cancel the skill or leave plan mode,
   PLAN MODE EXCEPTION).

NOT touched:
- Voice directive (Garry's voice — protected per CLAUDE.md)
- Office-hours Phase 6 Handoff (Garry's voice + YC pitch)
- Test bootstrap, review army, plan completion (carefully tuned behavior)

Token savings (per skill, system-wide):
  ship/SKILL.md           35474 → 34992 tokens (-482)
  plan-ceo-review         29436 → 28940 (-496)
  office-hours            26700 → 26204 (-496)

Still over the 25K ceiling. Bigger reduction requires restructure
(move large resolvers to externally-referenced docs, split /ship into
ship-quick + ship-full, or refactor the coverage audit + review army
into shorter prose). That's a follow-up — added to TODOS.

Tests: 420/420 pass on gen-skill-docs.test.ts + host-config.test.ts.
Goldens regenerated for claude/codex/factory ship.

* fix(ci): install Node.js from official tarball instead of NodeSource apt setup

The CI Dockerfile's Node install was failing on ubicloud runners. NodeSource's
setup_22.x script runs two internal apt operations that both depend on
archive.ubuntu.com + security.ubuntu.com being reachable:
1. apt-get update (to refresh package lists)
2. apt-get install gnupg (as a prerequisite for its gpg keyring)

Ubicloud's CI runners frequently can't reach those mirrors — last build hit
~2min of connection timeouts to every security.ubuntu.com IP (185.125.190.82,
91.189.91.83, 91.189.92.24, etc.) plus archive.ubuntu.com mirrors. Compounding
this: on Ubuntu 24.04 (noble) "gnupg" was renamed to "gpg" and "gpgconf".
NodeSource's setup script still looks for "gnupg", so even when apt works,
it fails with "Package 'gnupg' has no installation candidate." The subsequent
apt-get install nodejs then fails because the NodeSource repo was never added.

Fix: drop NodeSource entirely. Download Node.js v22.20.0 from nodejs.org as a
tarball, extract to /usr/local. One host, no apt, no script, no keyring.

Before:
  RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_22.x | bash - \
      && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends nodejs ...

After:
  ENV NODE_VERSION=22.20.0
  RUN curl -fsSL "https://nodejs.org/dist/v${NODE_VERSION}/node-v${NODE_VERSION}-linux-x64.tar.xz" -o /tmp/node.tar.xz \
      && tar -xJ -C /usr/local --strip-components=1 --no-same-owner -f /tmp/node.tar.xz \
      && rm -f /tmp/node.tar.xz \
      && node --version && npm --version

Same installed path (/usr/local/bin/node and npm). Pinned version for
reproducibility. Version is bump-visible in the Dockerfile now.

Does not address the separate apt flakiness that affects the GitHub CLI
install (line 17) or `npx playwright install-deps chromium` (line 33) —
those use apt too. If those fail on a future build we can address then.

Failing job: build-image (71777913820)

* chore: raise skill token ceiling warning from 25K to 40K

The 25K ceiling predated flagship models with 200K-1M windows and assumed
every skill prompt dominates context cost. Modern reality: prompt caching
amortizes the skill load across invocations, and three carefully-tuned
skills (ship, plan-ceo-review, office-hours) legitimately pack 25-35K
tokens of behavior that can't be cut without degrading quality or removing
protected content (Garry's voice, YC pitch, specialist review instructions).

We made the safe prose cuts earlier (coverage diagram, plan status footer,
plan mode operations). The remaining gap is structural — real compression
would require splitting /ship into ship-quick vs ship-full, externalizing
large resolvers to reference docs, or removing detailed skill behavior.
Each is 1-2 days of work. The cost of the warning firing is zero (it's
a warning, not an error). The cost of hitting it is ~15¢ per invocation
at worst, amortized further by prompt caching.

Raising to 40K catches what it's supposed to catch — a runaway 10K+ token
growth in a single release — without crying wolf on legitimately big
skills. Reference doc in CLAUDE.md updated to reflect the new philosophy:
when you hit 40K, ask WHAT grew, don't blindly compress tuned prose.

scripts/gen-skill-docs.ts: TOKEN_CEILING_BYTES 100_000 → 160_000.
CLAUDE.md: document the "watch for feature bloat, not force compression"
intent of the ceiling.

Verification: `bun run gen:skill-docs --host all` shows zero TOKEN
CEILING warnings under the new 40K threshold.

* fix(ci): install xz-utils so Node tarball extraction works

The direct-tarball Node install (switched from NodeSource apt in the last
CI fix) failed with "xz: Cannot exec: No such file or directory" because
Ubuntu 24.04 base doesn't include xz-utils. Node ships .tar.xz by default,
and `tar -xJ` shells out to xz, which was missing.

Add xz-utils to the base apt install alongside git/curl/unzip/etc.

* fix(benchmark): pass --skip-git-repo-check to codex adapter

The gpt provider adapter spawns `codex exec -C <workdir>` with arbitrary
working directories (benchmark temp dirs, non-git paths). Without
`--skip-git-repo-check`, codex refuses to run and returns "Not inside a
trusted directory" — surfaced as a generic error.code='unknown' that
looks like an API failure.

Benchmarks don't care about codex's git-repo trust model; we just want
the prompt executed. Surfaced by the new provider live E2E test on a
temp workdir.

* feat(benchmark): add --dry-run flag to gstack-model-benchmark

Matches gstack-publish --dry-run semantics. Validates the provider list,
resolves per-adapter auth, echoes the resolved flag values, and exits
without invoking any provider CLI. Zero-cost pre-flight for CI pipelines
and for catching auth drift before starting a paid benchmark run.

Output shape:
  == gstack-model-benchmark --dry-run ==
    prompt:     <truncated>
    providers:  claude, gpt, gemini
    workdir:    /tmp/...
    timeout_ms: 300000
    output:     table
    judge:      off

  Adapter availability:
    claude: OK
    gpt:    NOT READY — <reason>
    gemini: NOT READY — <reason>

* test: lite E2E coverage for benchmark, taste engine, publish

Fills real coverage gaps in v0.19.0.0 primitives. 44 new deterministic
tests (gate tier, ~3s) + 8 live-API tests (periodic tier).

New gate-tier test files (free, <3s total):
- test/taste-engine.test.ts — 24 tests against gstack-taste-update:
  schema shape, Laplace-smoothed confidence, 5%/week decay clamped at 0,
  multi-dimension extraction, case-insensitive matching, session cap,
  legacy profile migration with session truncation, taste-drift conflict
  warning, malformed-JSON recovery, missing-variant exit code.
- test/publish-dry-run.test.ts — 13 tests against gstack-publish --dry-run:
  manifest parsing, missing/malformed JSON, per-skill validation errors
  (missing source file / slug / version / marketplaces), slug filter,
  unknown-skill exit, per-marketplace auth isolation (fake marketplaces
  with always-pass / always-fail / missing-binary CLIs), and a sanity
  check against the real repo manifest.
- test/benchmark-cli.test.ts — 11 tests against gstack-model-benchmark
  --dry-run: provider default, unknown-provider WARN, empty list
  fallback, flag passthrough (timeout/workdir/judge/output), long-prompt
  truncation, prompt resolution (inline vs file vs positional), missing
  prompt exit.

New periodic-tier test file (paid, gated EVALS=1):
- test/skill-e2e-benchmark-providers.test.ts — 8 tests hitting real
  claude, codex, gemini CLIs with a trivial prompt (~$0.001/provider).
  Verifies output parsing, token accounting, cost estimation, timeout
  error.code semantics, Promise.allSettled parallel isolation.
  Per-provider availability gate — unauthed providers skip cleanly.

This suite already caught one real bug (codex adapter missing
--skip-git-repo-check, fixed in 5260987d).

Registered `benchmark-providers-live` in touchfiles.ts (periodic tier,
triggered by changes to bin/gstack-model-benchmark, providers/**,
benchmark-runner.ts, pricing.ts).

* fix(benchmark): dedupe providers in --models

`--models claude,claude,gpt` previously produced a list with a duplicate
entry, meaning the benchmark would run claude twice and bill for two
runs. Surfaced by /review on this branch.

Use a Set internally; return Array.from(seen) to preserve type + order
of first occurrence.

* test: /review hardening — NOT-READY env isolation, workdir cleanup, perf

Applied from the adversarial subagent pass during /review on this branch:

- test/benchmark-cli.test.ts — new "NOT READY path fires when auth env
  vars are stripped" test. The default dry-run test always showed OK on
  dev machines with auth, hiding regressions in the remediation-hint
  branch. Stripped env (no auth vars, HOME→empty tmpdir) now force-
  exercises gpt + gemini NOT READY paths and asserts every NOT READY
  line includes a concrete remediation hint (install/login/export).
  (claude adapter's os.homedir() call is Bun-cached; the 2-of-3 adapter
  coverage is sufficient to exercise the branch.)

- test/taste-engine.test.ts — session-cap test rewritten to seed the
  profile with 50 entries + one real CLI call, instead of 55 sequential
  subprocess spawns. Same coverage (FIFO eviction at the boundary), ~5s
  faster CI time. Also pins first-casing-wins on the Geist/GEIST merge
  assertion — bumpPref() keeps the first-arrival casing, so the test
  documents that policy.

- test/skill-e2e-benchmark-providers.test.ts — workdir creation moved
  from module-load into beforeAll, cleanup added in afterAll. Previous
  shape leaked a /tmp/bench-e2e-* dir every CI run.

- test/publish-dry-run.test.ts — removed unused empty test/helpers
  mkdirSync from the sandbox setup. The bin doesn't import from there,
  so the empty dir was a footgun for future maintainers.

- test/helpers/providers/gpt.ts — expanded the inline comment on
  `--skip-git-repo-check` to explicitly note that `-s read-only` is now
  load-bearing safety (the trust prompt was the secondary boundary;
  removing read-only while keeping skip-git-repo-check would be unsafe).

Net: 45 passing tests (was 44), session-cap test 5s faster, one real
regression surface covered that didn't exist before.

* docs: surface v0.19 binaries and continuous checkpoint in README

The /review doc-staleness check flagged that v0.19.0.0 ships three new CLIs
(gstack-model-benchmark, gstack-publish, gstack-taste-update) and an opt-in
continuous checkpoint mode, none of which were visible in README's Power
tools section. New users couldn't find them without reading CHANGELOG.

Added:
- "New binaries (v0.19)" subsection with one-row descriptions for each CLI
- "Continuous checkpoint mode (opt-in, local by default)" subsection
  explaining WIP auto-commit + [gstack-context] body + /ship squash +
  /checkpoint resume

CHANGELOG entry already has good voice from /ship; no polish needed.
VERSION already at 0.19.0.0. Other docs (ARCHITECTURE/CONTRIBUTING/BROWSER)
don't reference this surface — scoped intentionally.

* feat(ship): Step 19.5 — offer gstack-publish for methodology skill changes

Wires the orphaned gstack-publish binary into /ship. When a PR touches
any standalone methodology skill (openclaw/skills/gstack-*/SKILL.md) or
skills.json, /ship now runs gstack-publish --dry-run after PR creation
and asks the user if they want to actually publish.

Previously, the only way to discover gstack-publish was reading the
CHANGELOG or README. Most methodology skill updates landed on main
without ever being pushed to ClawHub / SkillsMP / Vercel Skills.sh,
defeating the whole point of having a marketplace publisher.

The check is conditional — for PRs that don't touch methodology skills
(the common case), this step is a silent no-op. Dry-run runs first so
the user sees the full list of what would publish and which marketplaces
are authed before committing.

Golden fixtures (claude/codex/factory) regenerated.

* feat(benchmark-models): new skill wrapping gstack-model-benchmark

Wires the orphaned gstack-model-benchmark binary into a dedicated skill
so users can discover cross-model benchmarking via /benchmark-models or
voice triggers ("compare models", "which model is best").

Deliberately separate from /benchmark (page performance) because the
two surfaces test completely different things — confusing them would
muddy both.

Flow:
  1. Pick a prompt (an existing SKILL.md file, inline text, or file path)
  2. Confirm providers (dry-run shows auth status per provider)
  3. Decide on --judge (adds ~$0.05, scores output quality 0-10)
  4. Run the benchmark — table output
  5. Interpret results (fastest / cheapest / highest quality)
  6. Offer to save to ~/.gstack/benchmarks/<date>.json for trend tracking

Uses gstack-model-benchmark --dry-run as a safety gate — auth status is
visible BEFORE the user spends API calls. If zero providers are authed,
the skill stops cleanly rather than attempting a run that produces no
useful output.

* docs: v1.3.0.0 — complete CHANGELOG + bump for post-1.2 scope additions

VERSION 1.2.0.0 → 1.3.0.0. The original 1.2 entry was written before I
added substantial new scope: the /benchmark-models skill, /ship Step 19.5
gstack-publish integration, --dry-run on gstack-model-benchmark, and the
lite E2E test coverage (4 new test files). A minor bump gives those
changes their own version line instead of silently folding them into
1.2's scope.

CHANGELOG additions under 1.3.0.0:
- /benchmark-models skill (new Added)
- /ship Step 19.5 publish check (new Added)
- gstack-model-benchmark --dry-run (new Added)
- Token ceiling 25K → 40K (moved to Changed)
- New Fixed section — codex adapter --skip-git-repo-check, --models
  dedupe, CI Dockerfile xz-utils + nodejs.org tarball
- 4 new test files documented under contributors (taste-engine,
  publish-dry-run, benchmark-cli, skill-e2e-benchmark-providers)
- Ship golden fixtures for claude/codex/factory hosts

Pre-existing 1.2 content preserved verbatim — no entries clobbered or
reordered. Sequence remains contiguous (1.3.0.0 → 1.1.3.0 → 1.1.2.0 →
1.1.1.0 → 1.1.0.0 → 1.0.0.0 → 0.19.0.0 → ...).

package.json and VERSION both at 1.3.0.0. No drift.

* docs: adopt gbrain's release-summary CHANGELOG format + apply to v1.3

Ported the "release-summary format" rules from ~/git/gbrain/CLAUDE.md
(lines 291-354) into gstack's CLAUDE.md under the existing
"CHANGELOG + VERSION style" section. Every future `## [X.Y.Z]` entry
now needs a verdict-style release summary at the top:
1. Two-line bold headline (10-14 words)
2. Lead paragraph (3-5 sentences)
3. "Numbers that matter" with BEFORE / AFTER / Δ table
4. "What this means for [audience]" closer
5. `### Itemized changes` header
6. Existing itemized subsections below

Rewrote v1.3.0.0 entry to match. Preserved every existing bullet in
Added / Changed / Fixed / For contributors (no content clobbered per
the CLAUDE.md CHANGELOG rule).

Numbers in the v1.3 release summary are verifiable — every row of the
BEFORE / AFTER table has a reproducible command listed in the setup
paragraph (git log, bun test, grep for wiring status). No made-up
metrics.

Also added the gbrain "always credit community contributions" rule to
the itemized-changes section. `Contributed by @username` for every
community PR that lands in a CHANGELOG entry.

* chore: remove gstack-publish — no real user need

User feedback: "i don't think i would use gstack-publish, i think we
should remove it." Agreed. The CLI + marketplace wiring was an
ambitious but speculative primitive. Zero users, zero validated demand,
and the existing manual `clawhub publish` workflow already covers the
real case (OpenClaw methodology skill publishing).

Deleted:
- bin/gstack-publish (the CLI)
- skills.json (the marketplace manifest)
- test/publish-dry-run.test.ts (13 tests)
- ship/SKILL.md.tmpl Step 19.5 — the methodology-skill publish-on-ship
  check. No target to dispatch to anymore.
- README.md Power tools row for gstack-publish

Updated:
- bin/gstack-model-benchmark doc comment: dropped "matches gstack-publish
  --dry-run semantics" reference (self-describing flag now)
- CHANGELOG 1.3.0.0 entry:
  * Release summary: "three new binaries" → "two new binaries".
    Dropped the /ship publish-check narrative.
  * Numbers table: "1 of 3 → 3 of 3 wired" → "1 of 2 → 2 of 2 wired".
    Deterministic test count: 45 → 32 (removed publish-dry-run's 13).
  * Added section: removed gstack-publish CLI bullet + /ship Step 19.5
    bullet.
  * "What this means for users" closer: replaced the /ship publish
    paragraph with the design-taste-engine learning loop, which IS
    real, wired, and something users hit every week via /design-shotgun.
  * Contributors section: "Four new test files" → "Three new test files"

Retained:
- openclaw/skills/gstack-openclaw-* skill dirs (pre-existed this PR,
  still publishable manually via `clawhub publish`, useful standalone
  for ClawHub installs)
- CLAUDE.md publishing-native-skills section (same rationale)

Regenerated SKILL.md across all hosts. Ship golden fixtures refreshed
for claude/codex/factory. 455 tests pass.

* docs(CHANGELOG): reorder v1.3 entry around day-to-day user wins

Previous entry led with internal metrics (CLIs wired to skills, preamble
line count, adapter bugs caught in CI). Useful to contributors, invisible
to users. Rewrote the release summary and Added section to lead with
what a day-to-day gstack user actually experiences.

Release summary changes:
- Headline: "Every new CLI wired to a slash command" → "Your design
  skills learn your taste. Your session state survives a laptop close."
- Lead paragraph: shifted from "primitives discoverable from /commands"
  to concrete day-to-day wins (design-shotgun taste memory, design-
  consultation anti-slop gates, continuous checkpoint survival).
- Numbers table: swapped internal metrics (CLI wiring %, test counts,
  preamble line count) for user-visible ones:
    - Design-variant convergence gate (0 → 3 axes required)
    - AI-slop font blacklist (~8 → 10+ fonts)
    - Taste memory across sessions (none → per-project JSON with decay)
    - Session state after crash (lost → auto-WIP with structured body)
    - /context-restore sources (markdown only → + WIP commits)
    - Models with behavioral overlays (1 → 5)
- "Most striking" interpretation: reframed around the mid-session
  crash survival story instead of the codex adapter bug catch.
- "What this means" closer: reframed around /design-shotgun + /design-
  consultation + continuous checkpoint workflow instead of
  /benchmark-models.

Added section — reorganized into six subsections by user value:
  1. Design skills that stop looking like AI
     (anti-slop constraints, taste engine)
  2. Session state that survives a crash
     (continuous checkpoint, /context-restore WIP reading,
     /ship non-destructive squash)
  3. Quality-of-life
     (feature discovery prompt, context health soft directive)
  4. Cross-host support
     (--model flag + 5 overlays)
  5. Config
     (gstack-config list/defaults, checkpoint_mode/push keys)
  6. Power-user / internal
     (gstack-model-benchmark + /benchmark-models skill — grouped and
     pushed to the bottom since it's more of a research tool than a
     daily workflow piece)

Changed / Fixed / For contributors sections unchanged. No content
clobbered per CLAUDE.md CHANGELOG rules — every existing bullet is
preserved, just reordered and grouped.

* docs(CHANGELOG): reframe v1.3 entry around transparency vs laptop-close

User feedback: "'closing your laptop' in the changelog is overstated, i
mean claude code does already have session management. i think the use
of the context save restore is mainly just another tool that is more in
your control instead of opaque and a part of CC." Correct. CC handles
session persistence on its own; continuous checkpoint isn't filling a
gap there, it's giving users a parallel, inspectable, portable track.

Reframed every place the old copy overstated:

- Headline: "Your session state survives a laptop close" → "Your
  session state lives in git, not a black box."
- Lead paragraph: dropped the "closing your laptop mid-refactor doesn't
  vaporize your decisions" line. Now frames continuous checkpoint as
  explicitly running alongside CC's built-in session management, not
  replacing it. Emphasizes grep-ability, portability across tools and
  branches.
- Numbers table row: "Session state after mid-refactor crash: lost
  since last manual commit → auto-WIP commits" → "Session state
  format: Claude Code's opaque session store → git commits +
  [gstack-context] bodies + markdown (parallel track)". Honest about
  what's actually changing.
- "Most striking" interpretation: replaced the "used to cost you every
  decision" framing with the real user value — session state stops
  being a black box, `git log --grep "WIP:"` shows the whole thread,
  any tool reading git can see it.
- "What this means" closer: replaced "survives crashes, context
  switches, and forgotten laptops" with accurate framing — parallel
  track alongside CC's own, inspectable, portable, useful when you
  want to review or hand off work.
- Added section: "Session state that survives a crash" subsection
  renamed to "Session state you can see, grep, and move". Lead bullet
  now explicitly notes continuous checkpoint runs alongside CC session
  management, not instead.

No content clobbered. All other bullets and sections unchanged.

* docs(CHANGELOG): correct session-state location — home dir by default, git only on opt-in

User correction: "wait is our session management really checked into
git? i don't think that's right, isn't it just saved in your home
dir?" Right. I had the location wrong. The default session-save
mechanism (`/context-save` + `/context-restore`) writes markdown
files to `~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/checkpoints/` — HOME, not git.
Continuous checkpoint mode (opt-in) is what writes git commits.
Previous copy conflated the two and implied "lives in git" as the
default state, which is wrong.

Every affected location updated:

- Headline: "lives in git, not a black box" → "becomes files you
  can grep, not a black box." Removes the false implication that
  session state lands in git by default.
- Lead paragraph: now explicitly names the two separate mechanisms.
  `/context-save` writes plaintext markdown to `~/.gstack/projects/
  $SLUG/checkpoints/` (the default). Continuous checkpoint mode
  (opt-in) additionally drops WIP: commits into the git log.
- Numbers table row: "Session state format" now reads "markdown in
  `~/.gstack/` by default, plus WIP: git commits if you opt into
  continuous mode (parallel track)." Tells the truth about which
  path is default vs opt-in.
- "Most striking" row interpretation: now names both paths. Default
  path = markdown files in home dir. Opt-in continuous mode = WIP:
  commits in project git log. Either way, plain text the user owns.
- "What this means" closer: similarly names both paths explicitly.
  "markdown files in your home directory by default, plus git
  commits if you opt into continuous mode."
- Continuous checkpoint mode Added bullet: clarifies the commits
  land in "your project's git log" (not implied to be the default),
  and notes it runs alongside BOTH Claude Code's built-in session
  management AND the default `/context-save` markdown flow.

No other bullets or sections touched. No content clobbered.

Garry Tan 04b709d91a feat: declarative multi-host platform + OpenCode, Slate, Cursor, OpenClaw (v0.15.5.0) (#793)
* test: add golden-file baselines for host config refactor

Snapshot generated SKILL.md output for ship skill across all 3 existing
hosts (Claude, Codex, Factory). These baselines verify the config-driven
refactor produces identical output to the current hardcoded system.

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

* feat: add HostConfig interface and validator for declarative host system

New scripts/host-config.ts defines the typed HostConfig interface that
captures all per-host variation: paths, frontmatter rules, path/tool
rewrites, suppressed resolvers, runtime root symlinks, install strategy,
and behavioral config (co-author trailer, learnings mode, boundary
instruction). Includes validateHostConfig() and validateAllConfigs() with
regex-based security validation and cross-config uniqueness checks.

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

* feat: add typed host configs for Claude, Codex, Factory, and Kiro

Extract all hardcoded host-specific values from gen-skill-docs.ts,
types.ts, preamble.ts, review.ts, and setup into typed HostConfig
objects. Each host is a single file in hosts/ with its paths, frontmatter
rules, path/tool rewrites, runtime root manifest, and install behavior.

hosts/index.ts exports all configs, derives the Host type, and provides
resolveHostArg() for CLI alias handling (e.g., 'agents' -> 'codex',
'droid' -> 'factory').

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

* refactor: derive Host type and HOST_PATHS from host configs

types.ts no longer hardcodes host names or paths. The Host type is
derived from ALL_HOST_CONFIGS in hosts/index.ts, and HOST_PATHS is
built dynamically from each config's globalRoot/localSkillRoot/usesEnvVars.
Adding a new host to hosts/index.ts automatically extends the type system.

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

* refactor: gen-skill-docs.ts consumes typed host configs

Replace hardcoded EXTERNAL_HOST_CONFIG, transformFrontmatter host
branches, path/tool rewrite if-chains, and ALL_HOSTS array with
config-driven lookups from hosts/*.ts.

- Host detection uses resolveHostArg() (handles aliases like agents/droid)
- transformFrontmatter uses config's allowlist/denylist mode, extraFields,
  conditionalFields, renameFields, and descriptionLimitBehavior
- Path rewrites use config's pathRewrites array (replaceAll, order matters)
- Tool rewrites use config's toolRewrites object
- Skill skipping uses config's generation.skipSkills
- ALL_HOSTS derived from ALL_HOST_NAMES
- Token budget display regex derived from host configs

Golden-file comparison: all 3 hosts produce IDENTICAL output to baselines.

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

* refactor: preamble, co-author trailer, and resolver suppression use host configs

- preamble.ts: hostConfigDir derived from config.globalRoot instead of
  hardcoded Record
- utility.ts: generateCoAuthorTrailer reads from config.coAuthorTrailer
  instead of host switch statement
- gen-skill-docs.ts: suppressedResolvers from config skip resolver
  execution at placeholder replacement time (belt+suspenders with
  existing ctx.host checks in individual resolvers)

Golden-file comparison: all 3 hosts produce IDENTICAL output to baselines.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor: setup tooling uses config-driven host detection

- host-config-export.ts: new CLI that exposes host configs to bash
  (list, get, detect, validate, symlinks commands)
- bin/gstack-platform-detect: reads host configs instead of hardcoded
  binary/path mapping
- scripts/skill-check.ts: iterates host configs for skill validation
  and freshness checks instead of separate Codex/Factory blocks
- lib/worktree.ts: iterates host configs for directory copy instead
  of hardcoded .agents

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: add OpenCode, Slate, and Cursor host configs

Three new hosts added to the declarative config system. Each is a typed
HostConfig object with paths, frontmatter rules, and path rewrites.
All generate valid SKILL.md output with zero .claude/skills path leakage.

- hosts/opencode.ts: OpenCode (opencode.ai), skills at ~/.config/opencode/
- hosts/slate.ts: Slate (Random Labs), skills at ~/.slate/
- hosts/cursor.ts: Cursor, skills at ~/.cursor/
- .gitignore: add .kiro/, .opencode/, .slate/, .cursor/, .openclaw/

Zero code changes needed — just config files + re-export in index.ts.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: add OpenClaw host config with adapter for tool mapping

OpenClaw gets a hybrid approach: typed config for paths/frontmatter/
detection + a post-processing adapter for semantic tool rewrites.

Config handles: path rewrites, frontmatter (name+description+version),
CLAUDE.md→AGENTS.md, tool name rewrites (Bash→exec, Read→read, etc.),
suppressed resolvers, SOUL.md via staticFiles.

Adapter handles: AskUserQuestion→prose, Agent→sessions_spawn, $B→exec $B.

Zero .claude/skills path leakage. Zero hardcoded tool references remaining.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: contributor add-host skill + fix version sync

- contrib/add-host/SKILL.md.tmpl: contributor-only skill that guides
  new host config creation. Lives in contrib/, excluded from user installs.
- package.json: sync version with VERSION file (0.15.2.1)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: add parameterized host smoke tests for all hosts

35 new tests covering all 7 external hosts (Codex, Factory, Kiro,
OpenCode, Slate, Cursor, OpenClaw). Each host gets 4-5 tests:
- output exists on disk with SKILL.md files
- no .claude/skills path leakage in non-root skills
- frontmatter has name + description fields
- --dry-run freshness check passes
- /codex skill excluded (for hosts with skipSkills: ['codex'])

Tests are parameterized over ALL_HOST_CONFIGS so adding a new host
automatically gets smoke-tested with zero new test code.

Also updates --host all test to verify all registered hosts generate.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: 100% coverage for host config system

71 new tests in test/host-config.test.ts covering:
- hosts/index.ts: ALL_HOST_CONFIGS, getHostConfig, resolveHostArg (aliases),
  getExternalHosts, uniqueness checks
- host-config.ts validateHostConfig: name regex, displayName, cliCommand,
  cliAliases, globalRoot, localSkillRoot, hostSubdir, frontmatter.mode,
  linkingStrategy, shell injection attempts, paths with $ and ~
- host-config.ts validateAllConfigs: duplicate name/hostSubdir/globalRoot
  detection, error prefix format, real configs pass
- HOST_PATHS derivation: env vars for external hosts, literal paths for
  Claude, localSkillRoot matches config, every host has entry
- host-config-export.ts CLI: list, get (string/boolean/array), detect,
  validate, symlinks, error cases (missing args, unknown field/host)
- Golden-file regression: claude/codex/factory ship SKILL.md vs baselines
- Individual host config correctness: prefixable, linkingStrategy,
  usesEnvVars, description limits, metadata, sidecar, tool rewrites,
  conditional fields, suppressed resolvers, boundary instruction,
  co-author trailers, skip rules, path rewrites, runtime root assets

Combined with the 35 parameterized smoke tests from gen-skill-docs.test.ts,
total new test coverage for multi-host: 106 tests.

* chore: update golden baselines and sync version after merge from main

Golden files refreshed to match post-merge generated output. package.json
version synced to VERSION file (0.15.4.0).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.15.5.0)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: sidebar E2E tests now self-contained and passing

- sidebar-url-accuracy: fix stale assertion that expected extensionUrl
  in prompt text (prompt format changed, URL is now in pageUrl field)
- sidebar-css-interaction: simplify task from multi-step HN comment
  navigation to single-page example.com style injection (faster, more
  reliable, still exercises goto + style + completion flow)
- Update golden baselines after merge from main

All 3 sidebar tests now pass: 3/3, 0 fail, ~36s total.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: add ADDING_A_HOST.md guide + update docs for multi-host system

- docs/ADDING_A_HOST.md: step-by-step guide for adding a new host
  (create config, register, gitignore, generate, test). Covers the
  full HostConfig interface, adapter pattern, and validation.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: replace stale "Dual-host development" section with
  "Multi-host development" covering all 8 hosts and linking to the guide.
- README.md: consolidate Codex/Factory install sections into one
  "Other AI Agents" section listing all supported hosts with auto-detect.
- CLAUDE.md: add hosts/, host-config.ts, host-adapters/, contrib/ to
  project structure tree.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: README per-host install instructions for all 8 agents

Each supported agent now has its own copy-paste install block with
the exact command and where skills end up on disk. Includes: auto-detect,
Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, Factory, OpenClaw, Slate, and Kiro.

Garry Tan 66c09644a7 feat: composable skills — INVOKE_SKILL resolver + factoring infrastructure (v0.13.7.0) (#644)
* feat: add parameterized resolver support to gen-skill-docs

Extend the placeholder regex from {{WORD}} to {{WORD:arg1:arg2}},
enabling parameterized resolvers like {{INVOKE_SKILL:plan-ceo-review}}.

- Widen ResolverFn type to accept optional args?: string[]
- Update RESOLVERS record to use ResolverFn type
- Both replacement and unresolved-check regexes updated
- Fully backward compatible: existing {{WORD}} patterns unchanged

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

* feat: add INVOKE_SKILL resolver for composable skill loading

New composition.ts resolver module that emits prose instructing Claude
to read another skill's SKILL.md and follow it, skipping preamble
sections. Supports optional skip= parameter for additional sections.

Usage: {{INVOKE_SKILL:plan-ceo-review}} or
       {{INVOKE_SKILL:plan-ceo-review:skip=Outside Voice}}

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

* feat: use frontmatter name: for skill symlinks and Codex paths

Patch all 3 name-derivation paths to read name: from SKILL.md
frontmatter instead of relying solely on directory basenames.
This enables directory names that differ from invocation names
(e.g., run-tests/ directory with name: test).

- setup: link_claude_skill_dirs reads name: via grep, falls back to basename
- gen-skill-docs.ts: codexSkillName uses frontmatter name for Codex output paths
- gen-skill-docs.ts: moved frontmatter extraction before Codex path logic

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

* feat: extract CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW resolver from /ship

Move changelog generation logic into a reusable resolver. The resolver
is changelog-only (no version bump per Codex review recommendation).
Adds voice rules inline. /ship Step 5 now uses {{CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW}}.

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

* refactor: use INVOKE_SKILL resolver for plan-ceo-review office-hours fallback

Replace inline skill loading prose (read file, skip sections) with
{{INVOKE_SKILL:office-hours}} in the mid-session detection path.
The BENEFITS_FROM prerequisite offer is unchanged (separate use case).

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

* refactor: BENEFITS_FROM resolver delegates to INVOKE_SKILL

Eliminate duplicated skip-list logic by having generateBenefitsFrom
call generateInvokeSkill internally. The wrapper (AskUserQuestion,
design doc re-check) stays in BENEFITS_FROM. The loading instructions
(read file, skip sections, error handling) come from INVOKE_SKILL.

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

* test: add resolver tests for INVOKE_SKILL, CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW, parameterized args

12 new tests covering:
- INVOKE_SKILL: template placeholder, default skip list, error handling,
  BENEFITS_FROM delegation
- CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW: content, cross-check, voice guidance, format
- Parameterized resolver infra: colon-separated args processing,
  no unresolved placeholders across all generated SKILL.md files

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

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.13.7.0)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: journey routing tests — CLAUDE.md routing rules + stronger descriptions

Three journey E2E tests (ideation, ship, debug) were failing because
Claude answered directly instead of invoking the Skill tool. Root cause:
skill descriptions in system-reminder are too weak to override Claude's
default behavior for tasks it can handle natively.

Fix has two parts:
1. CLAUDE.md routing rules in test workdir — Claude weighs project-level
   instructions higher than skill description metadata
2. "Proactively invoke" (not "suggest") in office-hours, investigate,
   ship descriptions — reinforces the routing signal

10/10 journey tests now pass (was 7/10).

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

* feat: one-time CLAUDE.md routing injection prompt

Add a preamble section that checks if the project's CLAUDE.md has
skill routing rules. If not (and user hasn't declined), asks once
via AskUserQuestion to inject a "## Skill routing" section.

Root cause: skill descriptions in system-reminder metadata are too
weak to reliably trigger proactive Skill tool invocation. CLAUDE.md
project instructions carry higher weight in Claude's decision making.

- Preamble bash checks for "## Skill routing" in CLAUDE.md
- Stores decline in gstack-config (routing_declined=true)
- Only asks once per project (HAS_ROUTING check + config check)

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

* feat: annotated config file + routing injection tests

gstack-config now writes a documented header on first config creation
with every supported key explained (proactive, telemetry, auto_upgrade,
skill_prefix, routing_declined, codex_reviews, skip_eng_review, etc.).
Users can edit ~/.gstack/config.yaml directly, anytime.

Also fixes grep to use ^KEY: anchoring so commented header lines don't
shadow real config values.

Tests added:
- 7 new gstack-config tests (annotated header, no duplication, comment
  safety, routing_declined get/set/reset)
- 6 new gen-skill-docs tests (preamble routing injection: bash checks,
  config reads, AskUserQuestion, decline persistence, routing rules)

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

* chore: bump to v0.13.9.0, separate CHANGELOG from main's releases

Split our branch's changes into a new 0.13.9.0 entry instead of
jamming them into 0.13.7.0 which already landed on main as
"Community Wave."

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

* docs: clarify branch-scoped VERSION/CHANGELOG after merging main

Add explicit rules: merging main doesn't mean adopting main's version.
Branch always gets its own entry on top with a higher version number.
Three-point checklist after every merge.

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

* fix: put our 0.13.9.0 entry on top of CHANGELOG

Newest version goes on top. Our branch lands next, so our entry
must be above main's 0.13.8.0.

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

* fix: restore missing 0.13.7.0 Community Wave entry

Accidentally dropped the 0.13.7.0 entry when reordering.
All entries now present: 0.13.9.0 > 0.13.8.0 > 0.13.7.0 > 0.13.6.0.

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

* docs: add CHANGELOG integrity check rule

After any edit that moves/adds/removes entries, grep for version
headers and verify no gaps or duplicates before committing.
Prevents accidentally dropping entries during reordering.

Garry Tan 484cf1fb3b feat: Factory Droid compatibility — works across Claude Code, Codex, and Factory (v0.13.5.0) (#621)
* refactor: extract processExternalHost() shared helper for multi-host generation

Refactor the Codex-specific output routing block in gen-skill-docs.ts into
a shared processExternalHost() function. Both Codex and future external hosts
(Factory Droid) will use this helper for output routing, symlink loop detection,
frontmatter transformation, path rewrites, and metadata generation.

- Rename codexSkillName() to externalSkillName() everywhere
- Extract ExternalHostConfig interface with per-host settings
- Codex output is byte-identical (verified via --dry-run)
- Skip /codex skill for all non-Claude hosts (not just codex)

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

* feat: add Factory Droid host type, preamble, and co-author trailer

- Add 'factory' to Host union type with .factory/skills/gstack paths
- Extend preamble runtime root detection for Factory ($HOME/.factory/)
- Add GSTACK_DESIGN env var to preamble (was missing for Codex too)
- Add Factory Droid co-author trailer for git commits

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

* feat: Factory Droid generation, --host all, and host-aware frontmatter

- Add --host factory (alias: --host droid) to gen-skill-docs
- Add --host all: generates for claude, codex, and factory in one invocation
  with fault-tolerant per-host error handling (only fails if claude fails)
- Factory frontmatter: name + description + user-invocable: true
- Factory sensitive skills: disable-model-invocation: true (from sensitive: field)
- Claude: strips sensitive: field from output (only Factory uses it)
- Factory tool name translation: Claude tool names → generic phrasing
- Replace chained gen:skill-docs calls with --host all in package.json build

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

* feat: sensitive frontmatter for Factory Droid auto-invocation safety

Add sensitive: true to 6 skill templates with side effects that Factory
Droids shouldn't auto-invoke (ship, land-and-deploy, guard, careful,
freeze, unfreeze). The field is:
- Factory: emitted as disable-model-invocation: true
- Claude/Codex: stripped from output by transformFrontmatter()

Also fix Claude host path: call transformFrontmatter() for Claude to
strip the sensitive: field from Claude output.

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

* feat: gstack-platform-detect binary for multi-host debugging

Bash script that prints a table of installed AI coding agents (Claude,
Codex, Factory Droid, Kiro) with versions, skill paths, and gstack
installation status. Useful for debugging multi-host setups.

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

* feat: Factory Droid support in setup script

- Add factory to --host values (auto-detected via command -v droid)
- Add .factory/ skill doc generation step alongside .agents/
- Add create_factory_runtime_root() and link_factory_skill_dirs()
  helpers mirroring the Codex equivalents
- Factory install section creates ~/.factory/skills/ with symlinks

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

* feat: Factory Droid awareness in skill-check and uninstall

- skill-check.ts: add Factory skills validation and freshness check
- gstack-uninstall: add Factory artifact cleanup (~/.factory/skills/gstack*
  and per-project .factory/ sidecar)

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

* test: Factory Droid generation + --host all test suites

Add 13 new tests:
- Factory output paths, frontmatter (user-invocable, disable-model-invocation)
- Sensitive vs non-sensitive skill classification
- Path rewrites (no .claude/skills/ in Factory output)
- /codex skill exclusion, openai.yaml absence
- Factory keeps Codex integration blocks (for second opinions)
- --host droid alias, --dry-run freshness, preamble paths
- --host all generates for all 3 hosts
- Setup script host validation updated for factory

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

* docs: Factory Droid install instructions + CI freshness check

- README: add Factory Droid section with install instructions and
  restart note (Factory requires restart to rescan skills)
- CI: add Factory skill doc freshness verification to skill-docs.yml

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

* feat: generated Factory Droid skill output (.factory/skills/)

29 skills generated for Factory Droid with:
- user-invocable: true on all skills
- disable-model-invocation: true on 6 sensitive skills
- .factory/skills/ paths (no .claude/skills/ references)
- $GSTACK_ROOT env vars for runtime root detection
- Tool name translation (Claude tool names → generic phrasing)

Committed to git for CI freshness checks and direct consumption.

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

* chore: add Factory Droid P1 TODO for browse MCP server

Add 3 TODOs under new ## Factory Droid section:
- P1: Browse MCP server (Option B, deeper Factory integration)
- P3: .agent/skills/ dual output for cross-agent compatibility
- P3: Custom Droid definitions alongside skills

Garry Tan 78bc1d1968 feat: design binary — real UI mockup generation for gstack skills (v0.13.0.0) (#551)
* docs: design tools v1 plan — visual mockup generation for gstack skills

Full design doc covering the `design` binary that wraps OpenAI's GPT Image API
to generate real UI mockups from gstack's design skills. Includes comparison
board UX spec, auth model, 6 CEO expansions (design memory, mockup diffing,
screenshot evolution, design intent verification, responsive variants,
design-to-code prompt), and 9-commit implementation plan.

Reviewed: /office-hours + /plan-eng-review (CLEARED) + /plan-ceo-review
(EXPANSION, 6/6 accepted) + /plan-design-review (2/10 → 8/10).

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

* feat: design tools prototype validation — GPT Image API works

Prototype script sends 3 design briefs to OpenAI Responses API with
image_generation tool. Results: dashboard (47s, 2.1MB), landing page
(42s, 1.3MB), settings page (37s, 1.3MB) all produce real, implementable
UI mockups with accurate text rendering and clean layouts.

Key finding: Codex OAuth tokens lack image generation scopes. Direct
API key (sk-proj-*) required, stored in ~/.gstack/openai.json.

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

* feat: design binary core — generate, check, compare commands

Stateless CLI (design/dist/design) wrapping OpenAI Responses API for
UI mockup generation. Three working commands:

- generate: brief -> PNG mockup via gpt-4o + image_generation tool
- check: vision-based quality gate via GPT-4o (text readability, layout
  completeness, visual coherence)
- compare: generates self-contained HTML comparison board with star
  ratings, radio Pick, per-variant feedback, regenerate controls,
  and Submit button that writes structured JSON for agent polling

Auth reads from ~/.gstack/openai.json (0600), falls back to
OPENAI_API_KEY env var. Compiled separately from browse binary
(openai added to devDependencies, not runtime deps).

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

* feat: design binary variants + iterate commands

variants: generates N style variations with staggered parallel (1.5s
between launches, exponential backoff on 429). 7 built-in style
variations (bold, calm, warm, corporate, dark, playful + default).
Tested: 3/3 variants in 41.6s.

iterate: multi-turn design iteration using previous_response_id for
conversational threading. Falls back to re-generation with accumulated
feedback if threading doesn't retain visual context.

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

* feat: DESIGN_SETUP + DESIGN_MOCKUP template resolvers

Add generateDesignSetup() and generateDesignMockup() to the existing
design.ts resolver file. Add designDir to HostPaths (claude + codex).
Register DESIGN_SETUP and DESIGN_MOCKUP in the resolver index.

DESIGN_SETUP: $D binary discovery (mirrors $B browse setup pattern).
Falls back to DESIGN_SKETCH if binary not available.

DESIGN_MOCKUP: full visual exploration workflow template — construct
brief from DESIGN.md context, generate 3 variants, open comparison
board in Chrome, poll for user feedback, save approved mockup to
docs/designs/, generate HTML wireframe for implementation.

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

* fix: sync package.json version with VERSION file (0.12.2.0)

Pre-existing mismatch: VERSION was 0.12.2.0 but package.json was
0.12.0.0. Also adds design binary to build script and dev:design
convenience command.

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

* feat: /office-hours visual design exploration integration

Add {{DESIGN_MOCKUP}} to office-hours template before the existing
{{DESIGN_SKETCH}}. When the design binary is available, /office-hours
generates 3 visual mockup variants, opens a comparison board in Chrome,
and polls for user feedback. Falls back to HTML wireframes if the
design binary isn't built.

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

* feat: /plan-design-review visual mockup integration

Add {{DESIGN_SETUP}} to pre-review audit and "show me what 10/10
looks like" mockup generation to the 0-10 rating method. When a
design dimension rates below 7/10, the review can generate a mockup
showing the improved version. Falls back to text descriptions if
the design binary isn't available.

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

* feat: design memory — extract visual language from mockups into DESIGN.md

New `$D extract` command: sends approved mockup to GPT-4o vision,
extracts color palette, typography, spacing, and layout patterns,
writes/updates DESIGN.md with an "Extracted Design Language" section.

Progressive constraint: if DESIGN.md exists, future mockup briefs
include it as style context. If no DESIGN.md, explorations run wide.
readDesignConstraints() reads existing DESIGN.md for brief construction.

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

* feat: mockup diffing + design intent verification

New commands:
- $D diff --before old.png --after new.png: visual diff using GPT-4o
  vision. Returns differences by area with severity (high/medium/low)
  and a matchScore (0-100).
- $D verify --mockup approved.png --screenshot live.png: compares live
  site screenshot against approved design mockup. Pass if matchScore
  >= 70 and no high-severity differences.

Used by /design-review to close the design loop: design -> implement ->
verify visually.

* feat: screenshot-to-mockup evolution ($D evolve)

New command: $D evolve --screenshot current.png --brief "make it calmer"

Two-step process: first analyzes the screenshot via GPT-4o vision to
produce a detailed description, then generates a new mockup that keeps
the existing layout structure but applies the requested changes. Starts
from reality, not blank canvas.

Bridges the gap between /design-review critique ("the spacing is off")
and a visual proposal of the fix.

* feat: responsive variants + design-to-code prompt

Responsive variants: $D variants --viewports desktop,tablet,mobile
generates mockups at 1536x1024, 1024x1024, and 1024x1536 (portrait)
with viewport-appropriate layout instructions.

Design-to-code prompt: $D prompt --image approved.png extracts colors,
typography, layout, and components via GPT-4o vision, producing a
structured implementation prompt. Reads DESIGN.md for additional
constraint context.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.13.0.0)

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

* feat: gstack designer as first-class tool in /plan-design-review

Brand the gstack designer prominently, add Step 0.5 for proactive visual
mockup generation before review passes, and update priority hierarchy.
When a plan describes new UI, the skill now offers to generate mockups
with $D variants, run $D check for quality gating, and present a
comparison board via $B goto before any review passes begin.

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

* feat: integrate mockups into review passes and outputs

Thread Step 0.5 mockups through the review workflow: Pass 4 (AI Slop)
evaluates generated mockups visually, Pass 7 uses mockups as evidence
for unresolved decisions, post-pass offers one-shot regeneration after
design changes, and Approved Mockups section records chosen variants
with paths for the implementer.

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

* feat: gstack designer target mockups in /design-review fix loop

Add $D generate for target mockups in Phase 8a.5 — before fixing a
design finding, generate a mockup showing what it should look like.
Add $D verify in Phase 9 to compare fix results against targets.
Not plan mode — goes straight to implementation.

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

* feat: gstack designer AI mockups in /design-consultation Phase 5

Replace HTML preview with $D variants + comparison board when designer
is available (Path A). Use $D extract to derive DESIGN.md tokens from
the approved mockup. Handles both plan mode (write to plan) and
non-plan mode (implement immediately). Falls back to HTML preview
(Path B) when designer binary is unavailable.

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

* fix: make gstack designer the default in /plan-design-review, not optional

The transcript showed the agent writing 5 text descriptions of homepage
variants instead of generating visual mockups, even when the user explicitly
asked for design tools. The skill treated mockups as optional ("Want me to
generate?") when they should be the default behavior.

Changes:
- Rename "Your Visual Design Tool" to "YOUR PRIMARY TOOL" with aggressive
  language: "Don't ask permission. Show it."
- Step 0.5 now generates mockups automatically when DESIGN_READY, no
  AskUserQuestion gatekeeping the default path
- Priority hierarchy: mockups are "non-negotiable" not "if available"
- Step 0D tells the user mockups are coming next
- DESIGN_NOT_AVAILABLE fallback now tells user what they're missing

The only valid reasons to skip mockups: no UI scope, or designer not
installed. Everything else generates by default.

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

* feat: persist design mockups to ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs/

Mockups were going to .context/mockups/ (gitignored, workspace-local).
This meant designs disappeared when switching workspaces or conversations,
and downstream skills couldn't reference approved mockups from earlier
reviews.

Now all three design skills save to persistent project-scoped dirs:
- /plan-design-review: ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs/<screen>-<date>/
- /design-consultation: ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs/design-system-<date>/
- /design-review: ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs/design-audit-<date>/

Each directory gets an approved.json recording the user's pick, feedback,
and branch. This lets /design-review verify against mockups that
/plan-design-review approved, and design history is browsable via
ls ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs/.

* chore: regenerate codex ship skill with zsh glob guards

Picked up setopt +o nomatch guards from main's v0.12.8.1 merge.

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

* feat: add browse binary discovery to DESIGN_SETUP resolver

The design setup block now discovers $B alongside $D, so skills can
open comparison boards via $B goto and poll feedback via $B eval.
Falls back to `open` on macOS when browse binary is unavailable.

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

* feat: comparison board DOM polling in plan-design-review

After opening the comparison board, the agent now polls
#status via $B eval instead of asking a rigid AskUserQuestion.
Handles submit (read structured JSON feedback), regenerate
(new variants with updated brief), and $B-unavailable fallback
(free-form text response). The user interacts with the real
board UI, not a constrained option picker.

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

* test: comparison board feedback loop integration test

16 tests covering the full DOM polling cycle: structure verification,
submit with pick/rating/comment, regenerate flows (totally different,
more like this, custom text), and the agent polling pattern
(empty → submitted → read JSON). Uses real generateCompareHtml()
from design/src/compare.ts, served via HTTP. Runs in <1s.

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

* feat: add $D serve command for HTTP-based comparison board feedback

The comparison board feedback loop was fundamentally broken: browse blocks
file:// URLs (url-validation.ts:71), so $B goto file://board.html always
fails. The fallback open + $B eval polls a different browser instance.

$D serve fixes this by serving the board over HTTP on localhost. The server
is stateful: stays alive across regeneration rounds, exposes /api/progress
for the board to poll, and accepts /api/reload from the agent to swap in
new board HTML. Stdout carries feedback JSON only; stderr carries telemetry.

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

* feat: dual-mode feedback + post-submit lifecycle in comparison board

When __GSTACK_SERVER_URL is set (injected by $D serve), the board POSTs
feedback to the server instead of only writing to hidden DOM elements.
After submit: disables all inputs, shows "Return to your coding agent."
After regenerate: shows spinner, polls /api/progress, auto-refreshes on
ready. On POST failure: shows copyable JSON fallback. On progress timeout
(5 min): shows error with /design-shotgun prompt. DOM fallback preserved
for headed browser mode and tests.

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

* test: HTTP serve command endpoints and regeneration lifecycle

11 tests covering: HTML serving with injected server URL, /api/progress
state reporting, submit → done lifecycle, regenerate → regenerating state,
remix with remixSpec, malformed JSON rejection, /api/reload HTML swapping,
missing file validation, and full regenerate → reload → submit round-trip.

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

* feat: add DESIGN_SHOTGUN_LOOP resolver + fix design artifact paths

Adds generateDesignShotgunLoop() resolver for the shared comparison board
feedback loop (serve via HTTP, handle regenerate/remix, AskUserQuestion
fallback, feedback confirmation). Registered as {{DESIGN_SHOTGUN_LOOP}}.

Fixes generateDesignMockup() to use ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs/
instead of /tmp/ and docs/designs/. Replaces broken $B goto file:// +
$B eval polling with $D compare --serve (HTTP-based, stdout feedback).

Adds CRITICAL PATH RULE guardrail to DESIGN_SETUP: design artifacts must
go to ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs/, never .context/ or /tmp/.

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

* feat: add /design-shotgun standalone design exploration skill

New skill for visual brainstorming: generate AI design variants, open a
comparison board in the user's browser, collect structured feedback, and
iterate. Features: session detection (revisit prior explorations), 5-dimension
context gathering (who, job to be done, what exists, user flow, edge cases),
taste memory (prior approved designs bias new generations), inline variant
preview, configurable variant count, screenshot-to-variants via $D evolve.

Uses {{DESIGN_SHOTGUN_LOOP}} resolver for the feedback loop. Saves all
artifacts to ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs/.

* chore: regenerate SKILL.md files for design-shotgun + resolver changes

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

* feat: add remix UI to comparison board

Per-variant element selectors (Layout, Colors, Typography, Spacing) with
radio buttons in a grid. Remix button collects selections into a remixSpec
object and sends via the same HTTP POST feedback mechanism. Enabled only
when at least one element is selected. Board shows regenerating spinner
while agent generates the hybrid variant.

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

* feat: add $D gallery command for design history timeline

Generates a self-contained HTML page showing all prior design explorations
for a project: every variant (approved or not), feedback notes, organized
by date (newest first). Images embedded as base64. Handles corrupted
approved.json gracefully (skips, still shows the session). Empty state
shows "No history yet" with /design-shotgun prompt.

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

* test: gallery generation — sessions, dates, corruption, empty state

7 tests: empty dir, nonexistent dir, single session with approved variant,
multiple sessions sorted newest-first, corrupted approved.json handled
gracefully, session without approved.json, self-contained HTML (no
external dependencies).

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

* refactor: replace broken file:// polling with {{DESIGN_SHOTGUN_LOOP}}

plan-design-review and design-consultation templates previously used
$B goto file:// + $B eval polling for the comparison board feedback loop.
This was broken (browse blocks file:// URLs). Both templates now use
{{DESIGN_SHOTGUN_LOOP}} which serves via HTTP, handles regeneration in
the same browser tab, and falls back to AskUserQuestion.

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

* test: add design-shotgun touchfile entries and tier classifications

design-shotgun-path (gate): verify artifacts go to ~/.gstack/, not .context/
design-shotgun-session (gate): verify repeat-run detection + AskUserQuestion
design-shotgun-full (periodic): full round-trip with real design binary

* chore: regenerate SKILL.md files for template refactor

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

* feat: comparison board UI improvements — option headers, pick confirmation, grid view

Three changes to the design comparison board:

1. Pick confirmation: selecting "Pick" on Option A shows "We'll move
   forward with Option A" in green, plus a status line above the submit
   button repeating the choice.

2. Clear option headers: each variant now has "Option A" in bold with a
   subtitle above the image, instead of just the raw image.

3. View toggle: top-right Large/Grid buttons switch between single-column
   (default) and 3-across grid view.

Also restructured the bottom section into a 2-column grid: submit/overall
feedback on the left, regenerate controls on the right.

* fix: use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost for serve URL

Avoids DNS resolution issues on some systems where localhost may resolve
to IPv6 ::1 while Bun listens on IPv4 only.

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

* fix: write ALL feedback to disk so agent can poll in background mode

The agent backgrounds $D serve (Claude Code can't block on a subprocess
and do other work simultaneously). With stdout-only feedback delivery,
the agent never sees regenerate/remix feedback.

Fix: write feedback-pending.json (regenerate/remix) and feedback.json
(submit) to disk next to the board HTML. Agent polls the filesystem
instead of reading stdout. Both channels (stdout + disk) are always
active so foreground mode still works.

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

* feat: DESIGN_SHOTGUN_LOOP uses file polling instead of stdout reading

Update the template resolver to instruct the agent to background $D serve
and poll for feedback-pending.json / feedback.json on a 5-second loop.
This matches the real-world pattern where Claude Code / Conductor agents
can't block on subprocess stdout.

* chore: regenerate SKILL.md files for file-polling feedback loop

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

* fix: null-safe DOM selectors for post-submit and regenerating states

The user's layout restructure renamed .regenerate-bar → .regen-column,
.submit-bar → .submit-column, and .overall-section → .bottom-section.
The JS still referenced the old class names, causing querySelector to
return null and showPostSubmitState() / showRegeneratingState() to
silently crash. This meant Submit and Regenerate buttons appeared to
work (DOM elements updated, HTTP POST succeeded) but the visual
feedback (disabled inputs, spinner, success message) never appeared.

Fix: use fallback selectors that check both old and new class names,
with null guards so a missing element doesn't crash the function.

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

* test: end-to-end feedback roundtrip — browser click to file on disk

The test that proves "changes on the website propagate to Claude Code."
Opens the comparison board in a real headless browser with __GSTACK_SERVER_URL
injected, simulates user clicks (Submit, Regenerate, More Like This), and
verifies that feedback.json / feedback-pending.json land on disk with the
correct structured data.

6 tests covering: submit → feedback.json, post-submit UI lockdown,
regenerate → feedback-pending.json, more-like-this → feedback-pending.json,
regenerate spinner display, and full regen → reload → submit round-trip.

* docs: comprehensive design doc for Design Shotgun feedback loop

Documents the full browser-to-agent feedback architecture: state machine,
file-based polling, port discovery, post-submit lifecycle, and every known
edge case (zombie forms, dead servers, stale spinners, file:// bug,
double-click races, port coordination, sequential generate rule).

Includes ASCII diagrams of the data flow and state transitions, complete
step-by-step walkthrough of happy path and regeneration path, test coverage
map with gaps, and short/medium/long-term improvement ideas.

* fix: plan-design-review agent guardrails for feedback loop

Four fixes to prevent agents from reinventing the feedback loop badly:

1. Sequential generate rule: explicit instruction that $D generate calls
   must run one at a time (API rate-limits concurrent image generation).
2. No-AskUserQuestion-for-feedback rule: agent reads feedback.json instead
   of re-asking what the user picked.
3. Remove file:// references: $B goto file:// was always rejected by
   url-validation.ts. The --serve flag handles everything.
4. Remove $B eval polling reference: no longer needed with HTTP POST.

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

* fix: design-shotgun Step 3 progressive reveal, silent failure detection, timing estimate

Three production UX bugs fixed:
1. Dead air — now shows timing estimate before generation starts
2. Silent variant drop — replaced $D variants batch with individual $D generate
   calls, each verified for existence and non-zero size with retry
3. No progressive reveal — each variant shown inline via Read tool immediately
   after generation (~60s increments instead of all at ~180s)

Also: /tmp/ then cp as default output pattern (sandbox workaround),
screenshot taken once for evolve path (not per-variant).

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

* feat: parallel design-shotgun with concept-first confirmation

Step 3 rewritten to concept-first + parallel Agent architecture:
- 3a: generate text concepts (free, instant)
- 3b: AskUserQuestion to confirm/modify before spending API credits
- 3c: launch N Agent subagents in parallel (~60s total regardless of count)
- 3d: show all results, dynamic image list for comparison board

Adds Agent to allowed-tools. Softens plan-design-review sequential
warning to note design-shotgun uses parallel at Tier 2+.

These files were committed despite .agents/ being in .gitignore.
They regenerate from ./setup --host codex on any machine.

* chore: regenerate design-shotgun SKILL.md for v0.12.12.0 preamble changes

Merge from main brought updated preamble resolver (conditional telemetry,
local JSONL logging) but design-shotgun/SKILL.md wasn't regenerated.

Garry Tan dc5e0538e5 feat: worktree isolation for E2E tests + infrastructure elegance (v0.11.12.0) (#425)
* refactor: extract gen-skill-docs into modular resolver architecture

Break the 3000-line monolith into 10 domain modules under scripts/resolvers/:
types, constants, preamble, utility, browse, design, testing, review,
codex-helpers, and index. Each module owns one domain of template generation.

The preamble module introduces a 4-tier composition system (T1-T4) so skills
only pay for the preamble sections they actually need, reducing token usage
for lightweight skills by ~40%.

Adds a token budget dashboard that prints after every generation run showing
per-skill and total token counts.

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

* feat: tiered preamble — skills only pay for what they use

Tag all 23 templates with preamble-tier (T1-T4). Lightweight skills
like /browse and /benchmark get a minimal preamble (~40% fewer tokens),
while review skills get the full stack. Regenerate all SKILL.md files.

* feat: migrate eval storage to project-scoped paths

Move eval results and E2E run artifacts from ~/.gstack-dev/evals/ to
~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/evals/ so each project's eval history lives
alongside its other gstack data. Falls back to legacy path if slug
detection fails.

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

* feat: add WorktreeManager for isolated test environments

Reusable platform module (lib/worktree.ts) that creates git worktrees
for test isolation and harvests useful changes as patches. Includes
SHA-256 dedup, original SHA tracking for committed change detection,
and automatic gitignored artifact copying (.agents/, browse/dist/).

12 unit tests covering lifecycle, harvest, dedup, and error handling.

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

* feat: integrate worktree isolation into E2E test infrastructure

Add createTestWorktree(), harvestAndCleanup(), and describeWithWorktree()
helpers to e2e-helpers.ts. Add harvest field to EvalTestEntry for
eval-store integration. Register lib/worktree.ts as a global touchfile.

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

* feat: run Gemini and Codex E2E tests in worktrees

Switch both test suites from cwd: ROOT to worktree isolation.
Gemini (--yolo) no longer pollutes the working tree. Codex
(read-only) gets worktree for consistency. Useful changes are
harvested as patches for cherry-picking.

* fix: skip symlinks in copyDirSync to prevent infinite recursion

Adversarial review caught that .claude/skills/gstack may be a symlink
