Two hermeticity holes surfaced by the wave's final gate. (1) The three T6
tripwires (branch-slug, codex-flag, empty-find) enumerated the whole tree
including the workspace-local .claude/ install, which is not generated
output and can carry dangling symlinks from unrelated sessions — one ENOENT
there failed all three. They now scan repo sources only. (2)
browse/test/cdp-e2e.test.ts mutated process.env.GSTACK_HOME at module scope
without restore; in one-process shard runs that leaks into every later test
file — observed baking cdp-e2e's temp render path into artifacts that
outlived it (53 dangling SKILL.md symlinks in a workspace install). The
original value is now restored in afterAll. The exact test that performed
the polluted relink remains unattributed; both known leak vectors are
closed and the workspace was repaired via an explicit gstack-relink.

Completes the #2582 split (ENG-OV8). puppeteer-core had ZERO imports
repo-wide — a dead direct dependency whose only footprint was its CVE-prone
transitive chain (puppeteer-core > @puppeteer/browsers > proxy-agent >
get-uri > basic-ftp) and the pin test + basic-ftp override that existed
solely to guard it. Removing the dependency removes the surface: the
basic-ftp override and test/basic-ftp-security-pin.test.ts retire with it
(the lockfile resolves zero basic-ftp copies now). transformers ^4.2.0,
marked ^18.0.9, socks ^2.8.9 land per the dependabot group, gated on the
ONNX sidecar load+classify smoke passing with the bumped transformers
(28/28 sidecar+classifier+security tests green post-bump).

Fixes#2341. classifyDreamOutcome matched the bare phrase "does not declare
this phase", but gbrain's only emitters are the CONTENT phases
(extract_atoms, synthesize_concepts) — which the default base packs
legitimately skip while resolve_symbol_edges still runs. Every base-pack
brain therefore got the pack-capability WARN with its wrong, costly
remediation ("switch schema packs"), masking real graph problems. The match
now anchors to the graph phase (resolve_symbol_edges/extract_code_symbols);
a base-pack run with a built graph is clean, and a resolved-0 run gets the
honest 0-edge diagnosis.

Three contracts moved under this theme and the assertions pinned the old
shapes:
- The routing-probe assertion expected the single-file
'grep ... CLAUDE.md' shape; #2500 made the probe iterate CLAUDE.md AND
AGENTS.md, so it now asserts the for-loop + quoted $_RF shape.
- The three Claude-output Codex-path bans tripped on ~/.codex/config.toml,
which the shared codexPreflight's model_unusable branch (#2477) now
documents in rendered output. That path is the Codex CLI's own config
file — the same user-facing class as the already-exempt
~/.codex/sessions/ — so it is scrubbed before the host-path ban, with the
reasoning recorded next to the existing exemptions.

/review executed inside a Codex host spawned the codex specialist passes
anyway — the same model reviewing itself, at multiplied cost (observed:
15M tokens for a single /review).
Detection per maintainer decision 7: a presence probe of the Codex session
env. A live Codex session exports CODEX_THREAD_ID and CODEX_SANDBOX into
every shell it spawns — verified during implementation against a live
`codex exec 'env | grep -i codex'` capture on codex 0.147.0
(CODEX_THREAD_ID, CODEX_SANDBOX=seatbelt, CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED=1,
CODEX_CI=1). The shared codexPreflight in scripts/resolvers/constants.ts
(consumed by all three review.ts army blocks: adversarial, codex plan
review, codex doc review) now yields CODEX_MODE=under_codex and instructs
exactly one printed notice — '[running under Codex — nested codex passes
skipped; set GSTACK_FORCE_CODEX_REVIEW=1 to force]'. The override env var
forces the nested passes for users who really want them. codex/SKILL.md.tmpl
Step 0.5 gains the same probe: /codex under a Codex host stops with a
one-line notice, since its whole value is a SECOND model's opinion.
test/codex-under-codex-detection.test.ts runs the rendered preflight bash
under all four env combinations (thread-id only, sandbox only, forced,
clean) and asserts the probe + notice render in the three preflight
consumers and the codex skill.

The auth probe accepts 'auth exists' as readiness, but a ChatGPT account
with a stale model pin in ~/.codex/config.toml passes it and then EVERY
mode dies with an HTTP 400 ('The <model> model is not supported when using
Codex with a ChatGPT account') and no pointer to where the model came from
— one report burned ~40 minutes and four invocations plus a strings dump
of the binary before finding the one-line config fix.
bin/gstack-codex-probe gains _gstack_codex_model_probe: a short
codex exec 'reply OK' round trip with the configured model, gated behind
the cheap auth probe at all three preflight sites (codex Step 0.5, the
shared codexPreflight in scripts/resolvers/constants.ts — which grows a
model_unusable CODEX_MODE branch — and autoplan's availability chain).
Verdicts: MODEL_OK (cached 1h, keyed on config.toml + auth.json mtimes so
a pin edit or re-login re-probes immediately), MODEL_UNUSABLE (exit 1,
prints the rejection plus HINTs at the model= pin and the
[notice.model_migrations] table), MODEL_PROBE_INCONCLUSIVE (timeout or
transient: FAIL-OPEN so network luck never wedges codex mode).
The 'Model not supported (HTTP 400)' Error Handling entry already shipped
in v1.64.0.0; Step 0.5's prose now routes MODEL_UNUSABLE to it.
test/codex-model-probe.test.ts drives all four behaviors against a stubbed
codex binary (invocation-counted cache hit, hint content, fail-open
polarity, mtime invalidation).

The pre-landing review committed its fixes, then STOPPED and told the user
to run /ship again — 5-10 manual invocations on a branch with a few
auto-fixable findings, violating /ship's fully-automated contract. There is
no user decision between those invocations; each rerun just repeats the
workflow until a review pass produces no fixes.
ship/sections/review-army.md.tmpl item 7 now makes the loop explicit: after
committing fixes, re-run the test suite (Step 5) and this review (Step 9
items 2-6) in the SAME invocation, repeating until one full pass applies
zero fixes, then continue to Step 12. Bounded at 3 fix cycles — a review
that will not converge STOPs with a report of which findings keep
reappearing (a genuine blocker), never with a rerun request.
test/ship-review-loop.test.ts asserts no rendered ship surface (section +
all three host goldens) carries the STOP-and-rerun shape and that the
bounded loop language renders.

Branch-name-to-filename had incompatible rules across writer and readers:
gstack-review-log WRITES <branch>-reviews.jsonl with the gstack-slug
canonical form (tr '/' '-' then tr -cd 'a-zA-Z0-9._-', bin/gstack-slug:178),
but Context Recovery PROBED it with raw $_BRANCH from git branch
--show-current — so for any branch containing a '/' the REVIEWS line never
fired (#1851's reader half of #1127). The probe now uses ${BRANCH:-unknown},
the canonical value the gstack-slug eval on the block's first line already
sets. review.ts's plan content-search BRANCH gains the missing tr -cd half
so it matches the same canonical pipeline.
Full audit of the 5 raw $_BRANCH interpolation sites in scripts/resolvers/
(E3): generate-context-recovery.ts:16 (reviews.jsonl path) -> canonical
BRANCH; :19/:21 (timeline.jsonl content greps) KEEP raw $_BRANCH because the
timeline writer (preamble's gstack-timeline-log call) stores the raw branch
in the "branch" field — slugging the reader would break that pairing;
generate-preamble-bash.ts:29 (display echo) and :97 (timeline data write)
keep raw by design. The *-$BRANCH-design-*.md family (review.ts:313 + 3
plan-review templates) is a consistent tr '/' '-' writer/reader pair and is
deliberately untouched.
test/branch-slug-hygiene.test.ts pins the discipline: a rendered-output
sweep forbids raw $_BRANCH adjacent to a path separator or as a filename
prefix in ANY generated SKILL.md/section, and a live round-trip on a
feat/slash branch proves gstack-review-log's write is found by the rendered
probe (with the raw-form shape as a negative control).

The Question Tuning preamble pointed agents at a RELATIVE
scripts/question-registry.ts in the same sentence whose ${bin} path renders
absolute. Agents run with cwd in the USER'S project — the relative lookup
never resolves, silently fails, and the documented {skill}-{slug} fallback
fabricates a singleton question_id every time (one observed
/plan-eng-review session: 21/21 unregistered ids, so no per-question
preference can ever attach).
The resolver now interpolates ctx.paths.skillRoot the way sibling resolvers
interpolate bin paths: ~/.claude/skills/gstack/scripts/question-registry.ts
on Claude, $GSTACK_ROOT/scripts/question-registry.ts on env-var hosts.
test/question-tuning-registry-path.test.ts asserts the rendered path per
host, forbids the bare relative shape, and checks the target file exists in
the install tree.

codex >=0.144 deprecates the legacy --enable-based web_search_cached
spelling (web search is on by default; --enable <FEATURE> now means
-c features.<name>=true, verified against codex 0.147.0's exec --help).
Every gstack codex invocation now passes -c 'web_search="cached"' instead.
The flag previously lived inline at 19 raw sites. Per ENG-OV11a the 10
template-inline sites (autoplan/SKILL.md.tmpl x4, codex/SKILL.md.tmpl x6)
convert to a shared {{CODEX_WEB_SEARCH_FLAG}} token first, so ONE resolver
constant (CODEX_WEB_SEARCH_FLAG in scripts/resolvers/constants.ts) now
covers all sites: review.ts x5, design.ts x3, the token resolver in
utility.ts, and the tool-map helper comment.
codex/SKILL.md.tmpl's web-search prose guarantee is corrected: the -c form
explicitly overrides a top-level web_search config (the legacy flag yielded
to it), and native codex review disables web search regardless of
configuration, so the flag is a no-op on the default Review path.
test/codex-web-search-flag.test.ts is the safety net: repo-wide grep
tripwires assert NO rendered SKILL.md/section/golden and NO source file
carries the deprecated spelling, and that the token resolves in rendered
output.

find ... | xargs ls -t runs ls with NO operands when find matches nothing —
GNU xargs still invokes the command once, and ls -t with no operands lists
the current directory. Three sites misfired on fresh installs (no ceo-plans /
checkpoints / plans yet), exactly where a wrong answer is least likely to be
recognized: review.ts's plan fallback silently adopted a random cwd .md as
"the plan", and Context Recovery listed unrelated cwd files as RECENT
ARTIFACTS / LATEST_CHECKPOINT.
All three now use xargs -r ls -t, mirroring the shape the sibling
bin/gstack-codex-session-import fix (#2482) landed with: -r pins the BSD
skip-on-empty behavior on GNU too, and BSD xargs accepts -r as a no-op.
test/empty-find-fallthrough.test.ts pins it four ways: no bare xargs ls -t
in scripts/ or bin/, both rendered Context Recovery sites guarded, a live
execution proving an empty checkpoints dir yields no checkpoint (not a decoy
cwd file), and a rendered-SKILL.md sweep.

The HAS_ROUTING preamble probe only checked CLAUDE.md, so repos that route
skills via AGENTS.md (the cross-harness convention for Codex, Cursor, and
generic agent hosts) reported HAS_ROUTING: no and got nagged to create
CLAUDE.md. The probe now iterates CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md.
gstack-team-init's required-mode enforcement (the CLAUDE.md verification
snippet and the generated .claude/hooks/check-gstack.sh) hardcoded
~/.claude/skills/gstack, false-blocking installs living at any other host's
global root or the migrated ~/.gstack/repos/gstack location. Both sites now
resolve the install root: GSTACK_ROOT env first, then every registered
host's globalRoot, then the migrated repo path. Install instructions keep
pointing at the canonical Claude location.
test/routing-probe.test.ts pins both: rendered-preamble assertions plus a
live execution of the extracted probe block (AGENTS.md-only repo => yes),
and a drift test that requires every hosts-registry globalRoot to appear in
team-init's probe list.

Re-derive of PR #2414 (SYKhayyat) onto current main. Most of the PR already
landed in earlier waves: the tick-derived RESPAWN_GUARD_WINDOW_MS, the
spawnTerminalAgent windowsHide flag, the process-liveness regression tests,
and the browse/test import.meta.path sweep are all on main. Two pieces
remained:
1. isProcessAlive EPERM semantics (error-handling.ts): on the signal-0 path,
EPERM means the process EXISTS but we lack rights to signal it — that is
ALIVE. Returning false made callers that validate liveness before killing
(killAgentByRecord, the terminal-agent watchdog) skip the kill and respawn
around a survivor — the self-reinforcing one-leak-per-tick chain from
#2414/#2295. Matters for cross-user PID checks.
2. Six test/ files ADDED SINCE the PR reintroduced the exact Windows bug its
second commit fixed: `new URL(import.meta.url).pathname` yields
`/C:/Users/...` on Windows, so path.resolve prepends the cwd drive and
every tripwire ENOENTs instead of asserting anything (egress-receipt,
egress-lib, egress-receipt-wiring, gstack-egress-cli,
pty-skill-seeding-wiring, skill-census). All six now use
import.meta.path — Bun's absolute native path, identical arity.
The remaining #2414 piece — replacing the Windows tasklist probe with
signal-0 — lands as its own commit (#1952) on top of this shape.
Tests: the 6 touched test files 47 pass; process-liveness-windows +
error-handling 13 pass.

#2573: after `git rebase origin/main`, the feature branch's remote tip
still exists locally (the pre-rebase tip) but is no longer an ancestor of
HEAD, so the old `remoteSha..localSha` range swept in every upstream
commit rebased onto — 1.14 MiB scanned instead of 0.27 MiB on the
reported repo, tripping the engine's 1 MiB cap and blocking the push
with engine.input_too_large (a HIGH that meant "the engine never ran",
not a finding).
The catch-up-merge narrowing (`rev-list localSha --not remoteSha
--remotes`) covers this shape too: the upstream commits are reachable
from origin/main's remote-tracking ref, which exists by construction —
you cannot have rebased onto origin/main without it. No residual gap
found; this lands the proof alone, end-to-end through the actual hook
binary with the real pre-push stdin protocol:
- fixture sanity: the pre-rebase tip exists locally, is NOT an ancestor,
and the OLD two-dot range would have swept in the upstream credential
- a clean rebased force-push passes — someone else's already-published
HIGH-shaped fixture no longer blocks it
- coverage is not narrowed: a HIGH in a rebased commit of our own still
blocks
- the scanned commit set is exactly the rebased own commits, so scan
size is proportional to OUR work, not to how busy main was
Analyzed non-gap, recorded in the test header: upstream commits in NO
remote-tracking ref cannot arise from the standard flow — rebasing onto
origin/<branch> requires the tracking ref, and rebasing onto a purely
local branch means the "upstream" content was never published, so
scanning it is correct.

A county tax-map parcel ID (APN) reads as a national-format phone number
to `pii.phone.e164` — the same collision class as the digit-only UUID
that `insideUuid` already guards. `12-3456789.000` matches, and so does
its normalized `123456789000`.
This is not a rare edge. Land, title and property-tax repos carry APNs
by the hundred; a single title branch pushed 2 MEDIUM findings, and the
same shape recurs in every fixture, mart and smoke in the domain. A
guardrail that cries wolf on the domain's primary identifier is one
people learn to wave through, which is how a real HIGH finding
eventually gets ignored.
The guard is deliberately narrow, in two tiers:
1. The DOTTED form is exempt on its own shape. No phone convention puts
a dot before a trailing 3-4 digit group after a 4-8 digit middle.
Hyphen-only variants (22-0001-000) are NOT shape-exempted — those
genuinely are phone-shaped.
2. A DIGITS-ONLY span is phone-shaped in isolation, so it earns the
exemption only by evidence: it must be the exact digit-normalization
of a punctuated APN within the surrounding window. Fixtures and marts
carry the pair; a real phone number has no such twin. This reads the
document's own evidence instead of guessing from digits.
Verified against the unmodified engine over inputs spanning every rule
family (AWS, PEM, GitHub PAT, email, IP, credit card, SSN, timestamp,
UUID, nine phone formats): exactly one behavior changed, the APN pair.
The new test pins both directions and was proven red under mutation —
stubbing the guard to `return true` (the dangerous blanket-exemption
failure) fails 12 of 15; `return false` fails 3.
Absorbs PR #2591 by @Two-Six-Alpha-1115 (applied via git am -3; 96 tests

`remoteSha..localSha` is "everything new on this branch", which is not the
same as "everything new to the remote". Merge origin/main into a feature
branch and every commit main gained since that branch's last push becomes
an added line — content that is already published, already scanned, and
not this push's doing.
Two consequences, both observed:
· FALSE HIGH FINDINGS. A placeholder connection string in a fixture
someone else had already merged blocked an unrelated push as
db.url_with_password, telling the operator to rotate a credential
over a file they never touched. A guard that cries wolf on catch-up
merges is one people learn to bypass reflexively — which is exactly
how a real secret gets through.
· OVERSIZED SCANS. The SCAN_CHUNK_BYTES comment already records a
1,146,782-byte diff from "a feature branch catching up to a busy
main" blowing the engine's 1 MiB cap. Same root cause, treated there
as a size problem. Narrowing the range fixes the size too.
A two-dot range cannot express this: after merging main, neither the
remote tip nor the merge-base with main is an ancestor of the other, so
no single base excludes both.
The narrowed range is `rev-list localSha --not remoteSha --remotes`.
remoteSha STAYS the base — it is what git tells us the remote has, and is
authoritative in a way --remotes is not, since tracking refs can be
absent or stale. Using --remotes alone excludes nothing in a repo without
them, so every commit ever made reads as new. That is the same false
positive from the other direction, and it is what the existing test
"only NEW content is scanned (remote..local), not pre-existing" catches.
When excluding tracking refs changes nothing, this push has no catch-up
commits and the plain range already describes it exactly — so we defer to
it. That keeps every non-catch-up push on the original gitStrict diff
path, which is what #1946's fail-closed regression test exercises. A
narrowing that silently retired that test would be a worse trade than the
false positives it set out to fix.
Each commit is diffed alone. A merge's combined diff shows only content
present in no parent, so a secret introduced while resolving a conflict
is still caught while an ordinary merge contributes nothing.
Tests: 22/22 existing prepush tests still pass (two of them fail without
the remoteSha base and the defer-to-plain-range guard respectively —
verified by mutation). 5 new tests build real repositories on disk and
pin both directions: a catch-up merge no longer re-scans published
content, and secrets in new commits, in merge resolutions, and in
repos with no remote are all still scanned.
Absorbs PR #2592 by @Two-Six-Alpha-1115 (applied via git am -3; 5 new
tests pass in test/redact-prepush-scan-range.test.ts). Also narrows the
range for the rebased-force-push shape reported in #2573 — proven by the
follow-up regression test.

Three silent-skip classes in bin/gstack-diff-scope, each of which quietly
disabled scope-gated reviewers in /ship and /review:
1. Pattern gaps (#2526, #2455). `*/api/*` required a path segment BEFORE
api/, so a root-level api/ layout (Vercel serverless, Next.js pages/api
at root) never set SCOPE_API — 63 serverless functions in the
reporter's payments repo, none ever classified, the API-contract
specialist silently skipped on every payment PR (it found a CRITICAL
when run by hand). Same for root-level migrations/. And the Rails
data_migrate gem's db/data/ data migrations — arbitrary Ruby run
unattended against production data — fell through to plain BACKEND, so
the [NEVER_GATE] data-migration specialist never got the chance to
run. Added: api/*, migrations/*, db/data/*, data_migrations/*.
2. All-false was indistinguishable from "could not look" (#2526). New
contract: empty change set → all false exit 0; >=1 match → flags
exit 0; changed files with ZERO matches → SCOPE_ERROR=unmatched + the
unmatched paths as comment lines + exit 2 (a new top-level layout now
trips loudly instead of invisibly disabling reviewers); unresolvable
base ref (shallow CI checkout) → SCOPE_ERROR=no_base + exit 2 instead
of a green that means "we could not look". Every output line stays a
shell-safe assignment or comment for sourcing consumers, which
tolerate the nonzero exit today (source ... || true / eval).
3. Uncommitted work was invisible (#2299). /ship detects scope in Step 9,
BEFORE it commits in Step 15, so the common start-work-then-ship flow
ran the classifier against an empty diff and skipped every reviewer.
The change set is now the UNION of committed diff + working tree +
untracked files. Also from #2299: the single first-match-wins case
made the nine flags mutually exclusive (Button.test.jsx set FRONTEND
but not TESTS; util.test.ts the opposite) — each category now gets its
own case, with BACKEND deliberately still excluding frontend
component/view files. And file listing is NUL-safe (git diff -z), so
non-ASCII paths no longer defeat extension globs via octal quoting.
Deliberate behavior change (flagged in #2299): with independent flags, a
backend test file sets BACKEND and TESTS, which can trip the security
specialist's SCOPE_BACKEND gate on test-only PRs — errs toward more
review, not less.
Table-driven tests cover every glob class (root api/, nested api/,
controllers, openapi, root/nested/prisma/db-migrate/db-data migrations,
dual-category test files, auth, prompts, docs, plain classes), the
four-state exit contract, dirty-tree + untracked visibility, and the
non-ASCII path case (39 pass in test/diff-scope.test.ts).

cmdClassify's current-version read already resolved the
.gstack/version-path pin, but versionRel — the repo-relative path fed to
`git show origin/<base>:<path>` — was derived from the CLI flag alone
(`argVal(args, "--version-path") ?? "VERSION"`). In a pinned repo with no
explicit flag, base and current therefore read DIFFERENT files: current
from the pinned file, base from the root VERSION. On a repo with no root
VERSION, the base always read 0.0.0.0 — and the pinned-JSON handling
never engaged, so a pinned package.json was read as raw text
(currentVersion 0.0.0.0) and `write` would have overwritten the manifest
with a bare version string.
New resolveVersionRel() resolves the pin's REPO-RELATIVE form once
(flag → .gstack/version-path first line → "VERSION"); classify, write,
and repair all derive both the relative and absolute paths from it, so
base and current reads can no longer diverge. The old resolveVersionPath
(which returned an absolute path `git show` cannot use) is folded in.
Unit tests (the ENG-OV6 spec case plus write/repair coverage): pin set +
no flag → classify reads base AND current from the SAME pinned file
(plain-text sub/VERSION and pinned frontend/package.json, both against a
real git base with NO root VERSION anywhere), write updates the pinned
manifest in place without inventing a root VERSION, repair treats the
pinned JSON as single-source, and the explicit flag still overrides the
pin (38 pass in test/gstack-version-bump.test.ts).
Re-spec'd per ENG-OV6 from the report in #2462 (the originally-filed
classify-read hypothesis was already handled; the live bug was the :138
versionRel derivation). Same fix shape independently identified in

When the host query (gh/glab) failed, gstack-next-version returned
offline:true with an EMPTY claim set, and /ship's documented fallback was
local BUMP_LEVEL arithmetic. Local arithmetic cannot see a sibling's
claim, so the fallback allocated a version another open PR already held —
observed in a downstream repo where two merged PRs both read v0.1.57.0
(and an audit found four such duplicate pairs over three weeks).
New fetchGitClaimed() degrades the QUEUE VIEW without degrading the
ALLOCATION: git already knows what the API was asked for. It reads every
remote-tracking branch's pinned version file (through extractVersion, so
JSON version-paths resolve on remote refs too and each branch's own digit
width is preserved) plus the versions already shipped in the base's last
400 commit subjects (3- or 4-digit; the cap announces itself in warnings
when it truncates). The fallback runs only when the host told us nothing
— the online path is untouched — and the output gains a load-bearing
`fallback: "git" | null` field that /ship can branch on, plus explicit
warnings for both the recovered-from-git and the nothing-found cases.
Tests: end-to-end stub-gh offline contract (fallback:'git' + a valid
version + the warning), sibling-claim discovery from remote-tracking
refs, the pick advancing past the sibling's claim, shipped-subject
scanning, JSON version-path claims on remote refs, and non-repo
degradation to a warning (45 pass in test/gstack-next-version.test.ts).

Two gaps in gstack-version-bump's manifest handling, resolved to the wave
plan's version-tooling end-state spec (decision 11):
1. Subdirectory manifests. A repo whose only Node package lives in web/,
app/, or frontend/ has no ROOT package.json, so join(cwd,
"package.json") reported pkgExists:false and every bump silently wrote
VERSION alone — leaving the manifest to be bumped by hand, which is
exactly the drift this tool exists to prevent, in the one layout where
it silently did nothing. All three subcommands now resolve the
manifest as --package-json-path → .gstack/package-json-path →
./package.json (mirroring resolveVersionPath).
2. npm-valid mirror. VERSION is 4-digit MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.MICRO; npm's
semver is 3-component and rejects a fourth, so mirroring the raw form
breaks `npm ci` in any repo npm actually manages. The manifest and its
lockfiles now carry the npm-valid 3-digit translation (1.67.0.0 →
1.67.0) via npmVersion() in lib/version-source.ts. VERSION stays the
4-digit source of truth. classify judges drift against the TRANSLATED
form — a correctly-synced `0.1.25` no longer reads as eternal drift
against `0.1.25.0` — and grandfathers the pre-v1.67 1:1 four-digit
mirror as in-sync (flagging it DRIFT_UNEXPECTED would hard-stop /ship
on every existing repo on upgrade day; the next write migrates the
manifest to the translated form). Lockfiles are synced beside the
resolved manifest — including beside a pinned JSON version-path — and
only when they already exist.
classify output gains pkgPath and expectedPkgVersion for observability;
write/repair report packageJsonPath + packageJsonVersion. The /ship Step
12 prose (ship/SKILL.md.tmpl) documents the resolution chain and the
translation; SKILL.md files regenerated and ship golden fixtures
refreshed in this commit.
Tests: subdirectory pin + --package-json-path override, translated-form
classify (FRESH/ALREADY_BUMPED, no false drift), grandfathered 1:1
mirror, genuine divergence still drifts, repair to the npm-valid form
(33 pass in test/gstack-version-bump.test.ts; 526 pass across the five
affected files including goldens and parity).
Re-derived from PR #2531 by @CarringtonCreative on top of the 3-digit/
JSON version-source work, under decision 11 (which resolves the PR's
lockfile-gated translation in favor of an unconditional npm-valid
mirror).

npm records the package version twice in its lockfiles — top-level
`version` and, in lockfileVersion >= 2, `packages[""].version` (the entry
describing the root package itself) — and `npm install` keeps both in
step. gstack-version-bump write/repair updated VERSION + package.json but
left the lockfile behind, so every /ship bump in an npm repo drifted one
field per release until someone ran npm, dirtying the tree on the next
`npm install` far from the cause.
write and repair now mirror the version into package-lock.json AND
npm-shrinkwrap.json (which shares the format and, when present, is what
npm actually honors) as a pure JSON edit — no npm spawn, no
dependency-tree churn, dependency entries untouched. Per the wave plan's
version-tooling end-state spec (decision 11): synced ONLY when the file
already exists, never created (gstack itself is bun-only). A failed
manifest/lockfile write keeps the existing exit-3 half-write semantics so
classify reports DRIFT_STALE_PKG on re-run instead of hiding the drift.
Tests: 5 new cases in test/gstack-version-bump.test.ts — both lockfile
version fields synced with deps untouched, repair heals a stale lockfile,
lockfileVersion 1 (no packages map) doesn't crash, npm-shrinkwrap.json
synced without inventing a package-lock.json, malformed lockfile exits 3
loudly (26 pass total in the file).

Two version-source shapes failed CLOSED in a way that silently disabled
/ship's queue-collision check:
1. A --version-path / .gstack/version-path target that is a package.json
was read as raw text: the whitespace strip turned the JSON into
'{"name":"frontend",... which parseVersion rejected, so every read —
local, `git show`, and rival PRs' claims through the GitHub/GitLab
Contents APIs — fell back to 0.0.0.0 and competing claims were dropped
as "malformed".
2. parseVersion required exactly four components, so gstack-next-version
exited 2 on EVERY invocation in a 3-digit repo. That CLI IS the
queue-collision check; /ship then took its documented offline path of
naive local arithmetic, two branches cut from the same base picked the
same version, and git merged the duplicate without a conflict.
New lib/version-source.ts holds the shared semantics so both CLIs agree
by construction: parseVersion accepts 3- or 4-digit (3 pads the micro
slot for uniform comparison), versionWidth/fmtVersion keep a 3-digit repo
3-digit through bumping and formatting, micro coerces to patch on 3-digit
repos (with a warning in the output), and extractVersion reads a .json
version-path as JSON (.version) from any byte source. gstack-version-bump
treats a package.json version-path as that repo's single source of truth
(written in place, DRIFT_* states can't arise — no second file to drift
from). Detection is by shape, not new configuration.
Scope per the wave plan's version-tooling end-state spec (decision 11,
ENG-OV1): this is the READING capability + 3-digit acceptance ONLY.
gstack's own VERSION file stays the 4-digit source of truth; nothing here
flips authority to package.json. The PR's bundled fix for the
.gstack/version-path pin being ignored by classify's base read lands
separately (#2462) — these tests drive the JSON version-path through the
explicit --version-path flag.

/sync-gbrain always derived a new worktree-scoped source ID, even when
the repository already carried a valid .gbrain-source pin created through
the native GBrain source workflow — silently bypassing the selected
source boundary, registering a duplicate federated source, and routing
later dream/cycle checks to the wrong source.
Now a local pin is reused when it passes the fail-closed identity checks:
the ID is syntactically valid, the source is registered, and the
registered path realpath-resolves to the current checkout (so a stale or
copied dotfile can't redirect a sync into another repo's source). A
confirmed pin is treated as user-managed — synced and attached without
add/remove, legacy migration, or federation changes. Dry-run stays
spawn-free (reads only the local marker for previews). Missing, invalid,
stale, or unreadable pins fall back to the existing generated source ID.
Absorbs PR #2417 by @exGeni (applied via git am -3; 42 tests pass in
test/gstack-gbrain-sync.test.ts including the new pin-respecting
coverage: spawn-free dry-run, symlink-equivalent registered paths,
non-dry-run sync/attach with no add/remove, dream routing, unreadable
markers, config-backed env use).

Claude Code registers MCP servers at two scopes in ~/.claude.json: user
scope (.mcpServers) and project scope (.projects["/abs/path"].mcpServers
— what `claude mcp add` WITHOUT --scope user writes). Every gbrain
detection site read only user scope, so a correctly configured
project-scoped brain was invisible: brain-aware blocks suppressed,
remote-mode artifacts sync never recognised, and detectEndpointHash fell
through to the 'local' literal — two different project-scoped brains
hashed identically, so switching between them never invalidated the
cache, the exact scenario the function's docstring says it exists to
catch. Nothing errored; the features just quietly were not there.
Two sites fixed:
- scripts/resolvers/preamble/generate-brain-sync-block.ts: the shared
detection block (rendered into every tier-2+ SKILL.md) now resolves the
gbrain entry ONCE into _GBRAIN_MCP_ENTRY — user scope first, then the
nearest-ancestor project entry for $PWD that actually carries a gbrain
server (longest matching key with a path-boundary check: /a/repo never
matches /a/repo2; a nested project WITHOUT gbrain doesn't shadow its
parent's registration). _GBRAIN_MCP_TYPE and _GBRAIN_HOST extract from
the resolved entry, so claude.json is parsed once per skill start. All
SKILL.md files regenerated in this commit; the ship golden fixtures and
three carve-guard skeleton caps (plan-eng-review, plan-devex-review,
office-hours; ~1.5KB rendered growth per skill) are refreshed with
measured values.
- bin/gstack-brain-cache detectEndpointHash: same resolution order in TS
(user scope, else nearest-ancestor project entry by cwd, both path
separators for Windows keys).
Tests: rendered-output tests in test/gen-skill-docs.test.ts pin the
regenerated block (static markers + a FUNCTIONAL run of the exact
rendered lines against a fixture ~/.claude.json with only a
project-scoped registration, plus an outside-cwd discriminator);
detectEndpointHash unit tests in test/brain-cache-roundtrip.test.ts cover
project-scope resolve, path-boundary, nearest-ancestor distinct hashes,
and user-scope precedence.

gstack treated GBRAIN_HOME as the config directory; gbrain's configDir()
treats it as the PARENT and always appends `.gbrain` itself (the contract
is explicit in gbrain's source: GBRAIN_HOME=/tmp/x → /tmp/x/.gbrain/
config.json). With GBRAIN_HOME set, gstack classified engine status from
a file gbrain never reads — the probe's two halves (file checks vs the
spawned `gbrain sources list`) looked at DIFFERENT installs, so any
resulting status was arbitrary: missing-config/broken-config against
healthy installs, or a thin-client marker gstack saw that gbrain itself
reported as "No brain configured".
New shared resolver `gbrainConfigDir()` in lib/gbrain-exec.ts is the
single source of truth. All seven gstack sites route through the contract:
- lib/gbrain-local-status.ts gbrainConfigPath (the classifier's file half)
- bin/gstack-gbrain-detect GBRAIN_CONFIG + readRemoteMcpUrl
- lib/gbrain-exec.ts buildGbrainEnv (the probe's DATABASE_URL seed —
fixing only the classifier would have left the split-brain in the
spawn half, flagged by the reporter)
- lib/gbrain-guards.ts gbrainHome (clones-dir + autopilot-lock paths)
- lib/gstack-memory-helpers.ts gbrainConfigPath (engine-tier fallback)
- bin/gstack-gbrain-install pre-doctor config check (shell)
Unit tests cover GBRAIN_HOME set (config found at $GBRAIN_HOME/.gbrain),
the old flat layout explicitly NOT read (both classifier and
buildGbrainEnv), and unset (~/.gbrain unchanged). Existing fixtures that
encoded the deviant flat layout are updated to gbrain's contract.
Root-cause analysis by @d-danielsun in #2521.
Deviation from the 3-site plan spec: the same deviant resolution existed
in four more sites (buildGbrainEnv, gbrain-guards, memory-helpers,
gbrain-install); fixing only three would have left gstack disagreeing
with itself as well as with gbrain, so the whole class moved to the
shared resolver in one change.

The #2051 thin-client fix keys detection on the remote_mcp marker in
~/.gbrain/config.json — but that marker is only written by the OAuth path
(gbrain init --mcp-only). Bearer-token installs (gbrain connect <url>
--token, gbrain's own recommended default for local/personal use) never
touch config.json, so they fell through to the local probe, failed against
the dead-or-absent local engine, and landed on missing-config / broken-db /
broken-config / engine-locked — silently suppressing brain blocks for a
fully-working remote brain.
New evidence source: hasRemoteOnlyGbrainMcp() reads ~/.claude.json MCP
registrations (user scope AND project scope) with the same classification
rules as gstack-gbrain-detect's tier-3 fallback. File-read only — no
subprocess, no network (a classifier network probe is the #1964 pathology).
Wired at two sites in freshClassify:
- missing-config branch: a bearer thin client may never have run a local
init; if the host's only gbrain registration is remote-HTTP, that
registration IS the brain → thin-client.
- post-probe-failure demotion: broken-db / broken-config / engine-locked
reclassify to thin-client when the only gbrain registration is remote.
A local-stdio sibling registration blocks the demotion (federation
guard: a user running a local engine plus a remote team brain keeps
precise local statuses). "timeout" is excluded — already usable, and
may be a genuinely healthy slow local engine.
7 new unit tests in test/gbrain-local-status.test.ts: user-scope, project-
scope, engine-locked/broken-db demotion, federation guard, no-registration
discriminator, end-to-end --is-ok gate (35 pass total in the file).

#2194 taught the classifier to report a PGLite lock held by a live
\`gbrain serve\` as engine-locked instead of broken-config, but none of the
three "is gbrain usable?" gates accepted the new status — so the symptom
moved from a wrong error to a quieter wrong suppression: gbrain-refresh
stripped GBRAIN_CONTEXT_LOAD / GBRAIN_SAVE_RESULTS blocks out of every
generated SKILL.md after every upgrade, on the RECOMMENDED /setup-gbrain
default (PGLite + local-stdio MCP spawns gbrain serve at session start).
engine-locked is the same class as timeout (#1964): the engine is
installed and healthy, a legitimate holder has the lock. All three gates
now agree:
- bin/gstack-gbrain-detect --is-ok exits 0 on engine-locked
- bin/gstack-config gbrain-refresh case arm renders instead of suppressing
- scripts/gen-skill-docs.ts --respect-detection treats it as detected
Test mirrors the existing timeout case in
test/gbrain-detection-override.test.ts (engine-locked renders brain
blocks; the sibling no-cli case still proves suppression works).
Applies the reporter's patch + test from the issue.

Integration drift from the T3 lane: three static assertions pinned the OLD
implementation shapes that T3 legitimately replaced — the gbrain-refresh
branch no longer self-documents a reset --hard cycle (#2569 renders to an
untracked out-dir instead; the test now pins THAT), setup's regen block
renamed to the render form (re-anchored, same exit-code-propagation
invariant), and sections/ linking generalized into _link_skill_runtime_assets
(the _link_or_copy routing assertion moved into the helper). Fourth: the
uninstall neutral-target test asserted against os.tmpdir(), which reads
$TMPDIR at call time — a shard neighbor can leave it gstack-containing,
making the "neutral" symlink target match the provenance substring; the test
now falls back to a fixed neutral root and asserts neutrality explicitly.

/setup-gbrain's transcript-ingest steps told the agent to run
bin/gstack-memory-ingest and bin/gstack-gbrain-sync by BARE name. Neither
exists — only the .ts files ship (mode 644, no bin alias) — so the agent
dutifully reported 'script missing at install root' and the ingest/full-
sync steps dead-ended on every host (hit live under Codex; the Claude
render carries the same text).
All four template sites (probe, silent-bulk, post-answer full sync, the
preamble-hook incremental mention) and the four memory.md reference-doc
sites now use the repo's established form: 'bun run <path>/gstack-memory-
ingest.ts …' / 'bun run <path>/gstack-gbrain-sync.ts …' — matching what
sync-gbrain already does. Generated SKILL.md regenerated from the template
in the same commit.
Re-derived from PR #2409 by @SomSamantray per the wave's screening rule
(the PR edited the generated SKILL.md directly; the generated file must
come from gen:skill-docs). The contributor's structural test rides along
as-is: bare-invocation regexes with negative .ts lookahead and backslash-
continuation coverage pin every site, so the drift can't return. The
referenced-paths ratchet in test/setup-claude-skill-assets.test.ts drops
its two #2250 known-broken entries — the class-2 assertion now guards
these paths again.
Verified against #2250's site list (template lines 690/735/784-area, all
covered) plus a fresh grep: zero bare invocations remain in the template
or memory.md; the one prose mention ('gstack-memory-ingest now persists…')
is not an invocation and stays.

A presented sheet sits AFTER the screen it covers in window.subviews, so
the elements walk emitted the covered screen first — a client taking the
first match for a label activated a control the user cannot reach, and
the agent saw a success (measured on a real app: the sheet's 'Create'
button ranked 210th behind 35+ covered-screen entries). Menus, alerts and
action sheets were worse: each gets its OWN UIWindow, so keying off
isKeyWindow missed them entirely — absent from /elements, dropped from
/screenshot, untappable via /tap.
Re-derived from PR #2397 by @IDSTUK onto the current bridge templates
(the SwiftUI tap-reliability rework had moved underneath the PR):
ScreenshotBridgeImpl gains orderedWindows(in:) (visible windows front-most
first by windowLevel then insertion order, PassThroughWindow overlays
still filtered), frontmostWindow(), and searchRoots() (per window, the
top-most presented view controller's view before the window itself).
/elements walks those roots in order through the existing shared
visited-set + budget, so overlapping roots emit each view once at its
front-most position; /tap targets frontmostWindow() for both the
accessibility-activation and synthesized-touch paths; /type and /swipe
search the roots in order; /screenshot composites every window
back-to-front at the existing 1x scale. The two now-dead private
activeScene/activeKeyWindow copies in ElementsBridgeImpl and
MutationBridgeImpl are removed.
Fixture mirror synced byte-for-byte; verified with a full
'xcodebuild build -scheme FixtureApp-Package -destination
generic/platform=iOS Simulator' (BUILD SUCCEEDED, DEBUG guard from the
previous commit included).

The preamble writes event:'started' to the project timeline at every skill
start, but the matching 'completed' write lives in prose at the END of the
skill workflow — unenforceable. An interrupted session, a context blowout,
or an agent that simply stops leaked started > completed forever, and the
leak was unrepairable after the fact (observed live in #2553).
New hosts/claude/hooks/timeline-stop-hook (+ .ts, question-log-hook shim
pattern): on Claude Code's Stop event it appends event:'completed' with
outcome 'unknown' and source 'stop-hook' for every 'started' entry in the
project timeline that has no matching completion. setup registers it via
gstack-settings-hook add-event (Stop was already an accepted event) under
its own source tag, idempotently; --no-team and gstack-uninstall remove it.
FAIL-OPEN contract (F5), pinned by tests: ALWAYS exits 0 — corrupt
timeline (bad lines skipped individually, valid ones still repaired),
missing timeline, garbage/empty stdin, bun missing from PATH (the shim
'|| true's), and an over-cap timeline (10MB skip) all repair nothing and
block nothing; errors land in ~/.gstack/hook-errors.log best-effort. The
write path is append-only with a ~2s internal budget, and a second Stop is
a no-op (already-closed entries never re-close). Correlation is
project-scoped by design — the preamble's session id is shell-local, so a
concurrent same-project session's entry may close early as a traceable
source:'stop-hook' row rather than a silent leak; the header documents the
trade-off.

Two of #1946's reported gaps were still open after the v1.64 fail-closed
work (the git-error and oversized-diff paths in bin/gstack-redact-prepush
are already strict, chunked, and pinned by tests):
1. Detection fail-open: env.kv required an UPPERCASE name with an '='
assignment, so 'api_key=…', 'apiKey: "…"', and 'password: …' — the
most common real config shapes — produced NO finding at all. The pattern
is now case-insensitive, accepts ':' (YAML/JSON) as well as '='
assignment, and handles quoted JSON keys. It stays MEDIUM and
entropy-gated per the calibration rule (a generic net that cries wolf
gets bypassed), with pinned cases for each closed shape plus the
placeholder/entropy negatives.
2. Install fail-open: nothing ever offered the guard, so a plain 'git
push' scanned nothing and users believing themselves protected weren't.
setup now asks ONCE for consent on a real interactive terminal
(maintainer decision 6): an explicit answer is recorded to the existing
redact_prepush_hook key and never re-asked; a timeout or non-interactive
run changes nothing and keeps the hint-only posture. Default stays
FALSE, and setup still never installs the hook itself — /ship owns the
per-repo install (the wrong-repo invariant is pinned by the existing
'setup carries the hint only' test).
Tests: per-shape pattern cases, prompt gating statics (key-absence + TTY +
timed default-N read), timeout-persists-nothing, non-interactive stays
hint-only with no key write, and recorded-answer-is-silent behavior runs.
Contributes to #1946 (the pre-push guard's fail-closed scan paths landed
in earlier releases; this closes the coverage and consent gaps it names).

On a global-git install with gbrain, ./setup and 'gstack-config
gbrain-refresh' ran gen:skill-docs:user IN PLACE inside the install
checkout, rewriting ~16 TRACKED SKILL.md files. The checkout stayed
permanently dirty, every /gstack-upgrade 'git stash' saved a redundant
snapshot of generated content, and the growing stash list invited a 'git
stash pop' that would lay stale instruction markdown from an older gstack
over the current version — a quiet wrong-rules failure mode.
Fix, wired through machinery that already existed (gen-skill-docs
--out-dir + the symlink install layer): brain-aware SKILL.md now renders
into the untracked ~/.gstack/render/claude, and both Claude installers
serve the render when present — setup's link_claude_skill_dirs prefers
$GSTACK_HOME/render/claude/<skill>/SKILL.md, and bin/gstack-relink does
the same so a later config change can't silently flip skills back to the
blockless canonical source. setup wipes and rebuilds the render each run,
repoints installed skills after a successful render, and removes a stale
render (re-linking canonical) when gbrain is gone. gbrain-refresh renders
to the out-dir and repoints via relink; its 'this dirties the install's
git tree' caveat is retired because it no longer does.
A one-time upgrade migration (gstack-upgrade/migrations/v1.67.0.0.sh, F12)
restores the legacy dirt: unstaged modifications to SKILL.md / sections/
*.md files in the install checkout are git-checkout'd back to canonical;
anything outside that footprint (user edits, untracked files, staged work)
is left alone and reported. Idempotent, non-fatal, symlinked installs
skipped.
Tests: render-preference behavior for both installers, static pins that
every executable :user invocation carries --out-dir and the caveat text is
gone, migration fixture (restore/leave/idempotent/no-op matrix), and the
existing out-dir render test now asserts 'git status --porcelain' gains
zero new entries across a full :user render.

'./setup --host cursor' was accepted by the flag parser and then did
nothing: no INSTALL_CURSOR branch existed, so the script built binaries,
printed no 'ready' line, and installed zero skills — Cursor users had no
way to install gstack at all.
Full install slice, re-derived from PR #2547 by @szsunyuan onto the
current installers: generate .cursor/ skill docs (host config already
existed), create a minimal ~/.cursor/skills/gstack runtime root (root
SKILL.md + bin/lib/browse assets + review checklist pair + ETHOS.md +
supabase config — bin and lib travel together because bin scripts import
../lib), link the generated gstack-* skills, and plant the repo-local
.cursor/skills/gstack sidecar WITHOUT ever wiping the generated SKILL.md
files it shares a directory with (link-before-sidecar ordering keeps the
generation fallback alive). Auto mode detects Cursor via the cursor
binary or the ~/.cursor footprint. gstack-uninstall removes
~/.cursor/skills/gstack* and per-project .cursor/skills/gstack* — and
never rmdir's .cursor itself, where Cursor stores user rules.
Re-derivation deltas from the PR: the link guards carry the #2444
IS_WINDOWS bypass (re-runs refresh real-dir copies), lib/ and
supabase/config.sh ride along like every other runtime root, and the
hosts/cursor.ts sidecar field is omitted (HostConfig no longer carries
one — sidecar behavior lives in setup).

On Windows, setup installs skills as REAL directory copies (cp -R via
_link_or_copy). gstack-uninstall's per-skill loop filtered on [ -L ], so
every copy was skipped: --force exited 0 and printed 'gstack uninstalled.'
while leaving ~52 gstack-* directories plus _gstack-command/ behind in
~/.claude/skills. The same filter also missed the standard Unix shape (real
dir + symlinked SKILL.md), which was left as a dangling-symlink husk.
Fix: the loop now handles all three install shapes. Symlink entries keep
the existing readlink check. Real dirs with a SYMLINKED SKILL.md are removed
when the link points into gstack (same semantics as setup's cleanup
helpers). Real dirs with a REAL-FILE SKILL.md — the Windows copy shape — are
removed ONLY when both provenance gates pass (F8): (a) the directory name is
in gstack's skill inventory (source dir names, frontmatter names, gstack-
prefixed variants, and the alias dirs), and (b) the SKILL.md carries the
existing generated banner '<!-- AUTO-GENERATED from' (ENG-OV10: every
pre-v1.67 copy already carries it; a NEW marker would refuse to delete
legitimate old installs, recreating the bug). Anything failing a gate is
listed to stderr and never deleted — a user's own skill that happens to
share a name with a gstack skill survives.
Tests: a fake-tree fixture covers removed/kept/listed for every shape
(including the F8 name-collision row), and a census test asserts every
installable skill's generated SKILL.md carries the banner so the gate can't
strand a bannerless skill. Registered in the Windows-safe curated list —
the copy shape is exactly what windows-latest exercises.

On Windows (Git Bash / MSYS2, no Developer Mode), _link_or_copy installs
REAL directory copies. The install guards in link_codex_skill_dirs,
link_factory_skill_dirs, link_opencode_skill_dirs, and create_agents_sidecar
only ran the copy when the target was a symlink or missing — true on the
first install, never again. Every subsequent ./setup after a git pull
reported 'gstack ready (codex).' and exited 0 while silently refreshing
nothing: users ran stale SKILL.md forever. (link_claude_skill_dirs already
handled this; the other hosts never got the treatment.)
Fix: all five guard sites bypass the symlink-or-missing check when
IS_WINDOWS=1 — _link_or_copy rm -rf's the destination first, so the real-dir
copy refreshes in place. Unix behavior is unchanged (symlinks still pass the
guard via -L and serve updates without re-copying).
The new bash-fixture test drives the REAL extracted functions through the
install → upstream change → re-run cycle under IS_WINDOWS=1 (v1 must become
v2), pins the sidecar-skip behavior, checks the Unix path stayed a symlink,
and statically asserts the bypass at all five sites so factory/opencode
can't regress. Registered in the Windows-safe curated list
(KNOWN_WINDOWS_SAFE) so it actually runs on the windows-latest CI lane —
the 'bin/' pattern hit is a fixture path segment, not a shebang spawn.

The two back-compat alias dirs — _gstack-command (root router) and
connect-chrome (→ open-gstack-browser) — symlinked the canonical SKILL.md
verbatim, so each alias re-served the canonical frontmatter name:. Claude
Code keys skills on that name and requires global uniqueness: the
connect-chrome duplicate silently shadowed /open-gstack-browser (whichever
readdir returned first won), and the _gstack-command duplicate could drop
the ENTIRE personal-skills set — every /gstack command vanished until the
user hand-deleted the alias dirs, and the next setup re-broke it.
Fix: copy-then-rewrite. A shared _install_alias_skill_md helper reads the
SOURCE SKILL.md and writes a fresh copy with name: rewritten to the alias
dir's own name (_gstack-command / connect-chrome / gstack-connect-chrome).
sed never edits in place: on Unix the old install was a symlink into the
repo, and an in-place rewrite through it would have corrupted the generated
source (eng review E2). bin/gstack-relink gets the same treatment for its
root-alias helper, and its discovery loop now skips symlinked source dirs
so the connect-chrome repo symlink can't re-mint the duplicate.
Tests assert: installed aliases are NOT symlinks, carry their own unique
names, all installed frontmatter names are globally unique, re-runs refresh
cleanly, legacy symlinked aliases are replaced not written through, and the
source files stay byte-intact.

On a fresh Claude install, link_claude_skill_dirs installed only SKILL.md
(+ sections/) per skill. Every skill that reads a sibling runtime file at
.claude/skills/<name>/<file> was broken out of the box: /review stopped at
'Read .claude/skills/review/checklist.md' (file never installed), and qa's
templates/references, plan-devex-review's dx-hall-of-fame.md,
gstack-upgrade's migrations/, and careful/freeze's bin/ hooks were all
silently missing. Codex/Factory/OpenCode/Kiro installers already copied
these; the primary host never did.
Fix: a shared _link_skill_runtime_assets helper installs EVERYTHING a skill
ships next to its SKILL.md, with an explicit exclusion list (F7):
node_modules, dist, test, *.tmpl, hidden files. Exclusion-list polarity
means a newly added asset installs by default instead of being silently
dropped. Assets refresh unconditionally on re-run (rm + relink/copy), so
Windows real-dir copies pick up changes after git pull.
New free test runs the real installer functions against the live repo into
a temp skills dir with a TWO-CLASS referenced-paths assertion (ENG-OV7):
alias-relative refs (.claude/skills/<name>/<path>) must exist under the
install; repo-anchored refs (~/.claude/skills/gstack/<path>) must exist in
the tree modulo an explicit built-artifact allowlist (browse/design/
make-pdf dist + the compiled gstack-global-discover). Known-broken class-2
refs (#2250 bare bin names) are ratcheted: the test fails if they quietly
start existing without the entry being removed.

The #2588 absorb refreshed all three ship goldens, but `bun run
gen:skill-docs` regenerates the CLAUDE host only — the codex/factory goldens
were copied from artifacts rendered before the resolver change and failed
against a fresh external-host regen in the serial test phase. Re-rendered
with --host codex / --host factory and re-copied.

Fixes#2105. Codex rollout JSONL moved to
{ type: 'response_item', payload: { type: 'message', role, content: [...] } };
the parser's legacy payload.message branch never fired on it, so every Codex
session imported as an empty shell (message_count: 0 — 243/243 sessions on
the reporting machine). Both shapes now parse; non-message response_items
(reasoning etc.) are ignored. parseTranscriptJsonl exported for direct unit
tests (CLI path unchanged — import.meta.main guard).
Note: #2104's staging-in-gitignored-tree half is already defended on main
(--include-gitignored + GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES, #2144, plus the #2486
reconcile guard) — verified, no change needed; it moves to the close-only
roster.

The rebuild path refreshes every per-project entity against the real gbrain
CLI; with an unreachable brain each spawn runs to its own timeout, and under
machine load the stack exceeds bun's 5s default (observed 5.2-5.4s,
identically on pre-#2587 binaries — a load flake, not a regression). 30s
budget matches the sibling brain-sync suite's convention.

Fixes#2549 (P0 data loss). Every drain exit previously truncated the WHOLE
queue (six `: > "$QUEUE"` sites), which (a) destroyed privacy/mode-held
entries while misattributing them as "no allowlisted changes", (b) destroyed
entries enqueued concurrently during the drain, and (c) left push-failed
commits stranded locally with nothing ever re-pushing them until unrelated
new work arrived.
Now: compute_paths_to_stage classifies every entry (stageable / retained
privacy-held / dropped skipped-invalid-unmatched-missing); rewrite_queue
re-reads the LIVE queue at mv time and removes only this drain's processed
paths (retained + concurrent appends + unparseable lines survive; atomic
tmp+mv); an unpushed-commit detector at run start re-pushes stranded local
commits (receipted fail-closed; a receipt refusal skips the retry rather
than wedging the drain; guards missing origin/<branch>; runs inside the
existing lock). Status lines carry counts; full drop paths go to a 0600
sidecar (.brain-sync-drops.json) so filenames stay out of transcripts.
--drop-queue remains the one intentional truncation.
Matrix added: privacy retention, unmatched/missing counted drops + sidecar
mode, unparseable-line preservation, surgical same-drain retention, push-fail
commit retention + detector re-delivery on an EMPTY queue, receipt-refusal
skip. 35/35 in test/brain-sync.test.ts.

Fixes#2471. With shell:true on Windows, node/bun join argv into one cmd.exe
string without quoting, so a repo path with a space — the default
C:\Users\First Last\ layout — split into two arguments and every gbrain call
carrying a path silently targeted the wrong location (worst: `sources add
--path`). All gbrain CLI invocations now build their (cmd, argv, shell)
triple through gbrainInvocation(), which quotes risky arguments for cmd.exe's
re-parse (embedded quotes doubled). The four direct spawn sites in
lib/gbrain-sources.ts route through the seam; the #1731 static invariant is
upgraded for seamed files (any direct "gbrain" opener is the violation) and
kept as-is for lib/gbrain-local-status.ts. POSIX behavior unchanged
(shell:false, passthrough argv).

The brain-sync stage failed on EVERY Windows run with "is not
recognized as an internal or external command", so /sync-gbrain always
reported ERR brain-sync among otherwise green stages.
#1731 gave these spawns shell: NEEDS_SHELL_ON_WINDOWS. That is correct
for the gbrain.cmd shim and does nothing here: shell:true routes through
cmd.exe, which resolves .cmd/.bat via PATHEXT but has no concept of a
shebang, so an extension-less bash script is rejected outright. A .cmd
shim needs a shell; a shebang script needs an interpreter. The two cases
look identical and are not.
The failure was quiet rather than loud. artifacts_sync_mode defaults to
pushing curated artifacts to git, so a Windows user's learnings piled up
uncommitted in ~/.gstack indefinitely while the sync report showed one
red line out of four.
New bashScriptInvocation() resolves Git for Windows' bash explicitly and
passes the script as argv[0]. It prefers Git bash over a bare `bash` on
PATH because WindowsApps ships a bash.exe that is the WSL launcher, which
would read C:\... as a Linux path; GSTACK_BASH overrides for unusual
installs; forward slashes because bash treats backslashes as escapes; and
it returns null when no bash exists so the stage says so plainly instead
of surfacing an unactionable spawn error.
The #1731 tripwire asserted the shape that does not work, so it now
asserts the opposite (never a raw spawnSync(brainSyncPath, ...)) and six
unit tests cover the resolver.
Verified on Windows: the stage now reports "OK brain-sync curated
artifacts pushed (4.2s)" and the artifacts repo committed + pushed on its
own. Affected-test set unchanged at 14 pre-existing failures before and
after, with 6 new passing tests.
Re-derived from PR #2588 under the generated-file screening rule (resolver
hunks taken; SKILL.md files regenerated, not accepted). A poisoned
.brain-last-pull could reach bash arithmetic ($(( ))) — a code-execution
vector from a writable state file; the timestamp is now validated numeric
before use. _GBRAIN_HOST from ~/.claude.json is clamped to hostname-safe
characters before echo. Ship goldens refreshed to the regenerated output.

bin/gstack-slug is a `#!/usr/bin/env bash` script with no file extension. Windows
honors neither the shebang nor PATHEXT for an explicit path, so spawnSync fails
ENOENT and resolveSlug returned its literal fallback, "unknown".
Every decision on the machine was therefore filed under
~/.gstack/projects/unknown/ -- one bucket shared by every project -- while the
bash-side Context Recovery preamble resolved the real slug, found no
decisions.active.json there, and skipped through a bare `if [ -f ... ]` with no
else.
Nothing failed. Both decision bins (log and search) missed identically, so writes
and searches stayed consistent with each other, and the only component that
resolved correctly was silent by design. Measured on one machine: 62 decisions
accumulated over 10 days and 170 skill runs, surfaced zero times.
shell:true is not the fix here, unlike #1731 -- cmd.exe cannot run a bash script
either. Nor is re-spawning through `bash`: on Windows that frequently resolves to
WSL, whose $HOME and /mnt/c paths yield a different slug AND a different cache
directory, trading one split store for another.
Instead, port gstack-slug's own three steps (cache -> git remote -> basename),
keeping its alphabet and its MSYS-form cache key so both paths agree. The
fallback is win32-gated, so POSIX behaviour is byte-identical.
Tests exercise the fallback on every platform (only the gating is win32-specific),
so POSIX CI catches a regression that would otherwise surface only on a Windows
user's disk, plus a static gate pinning the platform check.
gstack-decision-log enqueues projects/<slug>/decisions.jsonl after every write,
but none of the 16 managed globs matched it, so compute_paths_to_stage rejected
every one at its "must match at least one allowlist glob" check.
The writer and the syncer disagreed silently: enabling artifacts sync backed up
learnings, plans, designs and timelines -- everything except the durable decision
ledger -- and nothing reported a miss, because a dropped path prints exactly what
a synced one does when the queue is otherwise empty.
Add the three decisions.* globs and class them artifact so they also sync in
artifacts-only mode.
The test reads the heredocs out of the script rather than executing it:
gstack-artifacts-init.test.ts drives the real script through #!/bin/bash shims and
a colon-separated PATH, so it cannot run on Windows -- the platform where the
companion slug bug bit.
`test/redact-prepush-hook.test.ts` shadows `git` with a stub by prepending a
temp dir to PATH, built as `${stubDir}:${process.env.PATH}`. On Windows the
separator is `;`, so that produces one unparseable entry, the stub is never
found, and the REAL git runs — the diff succeeds, `gitStrict` never throws, and
the hook exits 0 where the test expects 1. It fails as a wrong assertion rather
than as a portability problem, which is what made it hard to place.
Replace it with a `prependPath` helper mirroring the one already in
test/gstack-brain-context-load.test.ts, which handles both platform details:
`path.delimiter`, and a case-insensitive lookup of the existing env key —
Windows commonly spells it `Path`, and adding a second `PATH` alongside an
inherited `Path` leaves the winner up to the spawn implementation.
On POSIX the helper resolves to `{ PATH: binDir + ":" + process.env.PATH }`,
byte-identical to the expression it replaces, so behaviour there is unchanged.
Fixing the separator alone does not make the test pass on Windows, and it
cannot: the premise is that a signal-killed child yields `spawnSync`
status === null, and Windows has no equivalent (a force-killed process reports
a non-zero exit code). The stub is also a `#!/bin/sh` file named `git`, which
Windows will not execute, since process creation resolves through PATHEXT and
ignores the shebang. A Windows variant would assert the non-zero-exit branch
instead — a different branch than the test name claims — so the test is gated
with test.skipIf(process.platform === "win32"), matching
test/session-runner-timeout.test.ts and test/setup-emoji-font.test.ts.
Windows before: 14 pass, 1 fail. After: 14 pass, 1 skip, 0 fail (3 consecutive
runs). Unchanged on POSIX, where it should still run and pass — worth
confirming in CI, since I can only verify the Windows half here.
