Garry Tanandcapy-ai[bot] 3e4240a76f v1.91.276.0 feat(preamble): tier 2+ skills load the shared preamble once per session (GSTA-96) (#3434)
* fix(preamble): completeness means complete coverage with minimal code (GSTA-96)

* feat(preamble): tier 2+ skills load the shared preamble once per session (GSTA-96)

Every tier 2+ SKILL.md inlined the same ~23 KB preamble. It now renders once
per host into sections/preamble.md beside each tier 2+ SKILL.md; the SKILL.md
keeps a pointer that asks for the Read only when the file's id is not already
in context. Only sections byte-identical to the shared render move, so every
skill keeps exactly its pre-hoist paragraphs (verified across all 41 skills).

Parity caps for ten skills raised to their measured unions (owner-approved,
Garry 2026-10-25: "do it"); 63 size pins lowered and 26 deleted.

* fix(paid-select): a generated sections/preamble.md takes its skill template's identity in the PR planner (GSTA-96)

screen-summary failed on #3434 with 'PR profile requires full validation' for nine
skills whose only paid coverage is periodic: their new sections/preamble.md had no
dependency identity, while the SKILL.md beside it inherits its template's.

* test(section-manifest): the shared sections/preamble.md renders from the hoist resolver, not a section template (GSTA-96)

* fix: pre-landing review fixes (CHANGELOG says 3 characters shorter; model-overlays guards the coverage half)

The completeness section shrank by 3 characters (5 bytes), matching the 89 pins lowered by 3. The default-copy test pinned only the minimal-code half; an expectMentions check now fails if the full-coverage or never-excuses-a-gap clause is dropped.

* fix: pre-landing review fixes (model-overlays binds smaller diff to equal coverage)

The default-copy check now also fails if 'on equal coverage' is dropped from the smaller-diff rule (which would tell models to prefer the smaller diff unconditionally) or if the no-impossible-state-checks clause is removed.

* docs: CHANGELOG lists the model-overlays coverage checks

The [Unreleased] Tests bullet now says the default-copy test checks both halves of the rule (full coverage of the requirement; smaller diff only at equal coverage; no impossible-state checks; never excuses a gap), matching 88e3cc0 and 44eacaf.

* test: cover the shared-preamble hoist (ship Step 7)

Adds test/preamble-hoist.test.ts (tier 1 unchanged; tier 2+ SKILL.md plus
sections/preamble.md reproduces the pre-hoist preamble; pointer position and id)
and two gen-skill-docs-checks cases (one shared preamble per host, beside every
pointer and named by its id; preamble artifact kind).

* fix: pre-landing review fixes (ship Step 9.4)

- setup: follow a symlinked sections/ dir in the carved-pointer status check
- touchfiles: select preamble-hoist.ts alongside every preamble.ts entry
- section-manifest: exempt sections/preamble.md only for skills whose SKILL.md
  carries the shared-preamble pointer
- skill-size-budget: growth ceiling measures SKILL.md plus its shared preamble
- host-conformance: tolerate a missing sections/ dir, as setup does
- skill-validation: read bin/gstack-skill-start directly
- skill-fixture: error messages and docblocks name the actual boundary
  (harness-version non-behavioral note updated)

* fix: describe the size-budget growth check's startup measure (ship Step 9.4, pass 2)

The growth ceiling now measures SKILL.md plus the shared preamble, the same
measure as the shrink floor; the docblock said SKILL.md only.

* test: cover the symlinked sections/ status check and the ETHOS house-rule quote (ship Step 7)

host-conformance: --status still finds a broken bare sections/ pointer when a
carved Claude skill's installed sections/ is a directory symlink (fails at the
pre-repair 0e5d11fd9). gen-skill-docs: the house rule review/specialists/
simplification.md quotes from ETHOS.md still appears in ETHOS.md.

* fix: the shared-preamble skip needs the skill's own Read; digest and first-run intro say complete coverage, minimal code (GSTA-96)

The pointer skipped the shared file when any text carrying its id was in context, so a
page or file with that heading could stand in for the anti-spoofing rules (security,
red team and adversarial review, ship run 2). It now requires the skill's own earlier
Read. The digest's Boil the Ocean bullet and the first-run intro still said 'AI makes
completeness cheap, so do the complete thing' (docs audit blocker); both now carry
Garry's 'complete coverage, minimal code' (2026-10-25: '1/ yes fix this').

* test: pin the shared-preamble provenance skip and the new Boil the Ocean wording (ship Step 7)

preamble-hoist: on every host, tier and render option the pointer allows the
skip only when the skill's own Read is in context. agents-digest and
gstack-skill-start: the digest bullet and the lake intro say complete
coverage, minimal code, never the retired phrasing. Each fails at 9af36d010.

* fix: describe the provenance skip where the docs still described the id-only one (ship Step 9.4)

The preamble-hoist.ts docblock and ARCHITECTURE.md still said the shared
preamble is re-read only when its id is absent; since 2acf1a44a the pointer
requires the skill's own earlier Read of the file.

* revert(digest): keep the agents digest at main's bytes; an unstamped head cannot change a release output (GSTA-96)

CI 'Check VERSION is not stale vs queue' classified #3434 as stamped because it touched
agents-digest/gstack-AGENTS.md (a release_outputs path), while regenerating only the
generator fails the digest freshness test. The first-run intro rewording stays.

The 1a4dcaf07 merge resolved test/fixtures/golden/claude-ship-SKILL.md to
main's pre-hoist bytes. The golden is a copy of ship/SKILL.md; regenerated
with bun scripts/gen-ship-goldens.ts (pregate regen: REGEN_STALE).

* test: pr-dependencies' unplaceable-file example uses SECURITY.md now that ETHOS.md is mapped

6183ca8ae registered ETHOS.md on its reader cases in touchfiles-data.ts, so a
PR touching only ETHOS.md plans in pr mode and no longer restores the full gate.
The fail-closed test and the real-unknown label check now use SECURITY.md, which
is tracked and unmapped; the assertions are unchanged. CHANGELOG names the
third test file. (CI free shard 7 at 7c21720ac; remote pregate shard 6.)

* test: host path-leak checks read the moved shared preamble too; name SHARED_PREAMBLE_FILE (ship review pass 2)

The external-host path-leak assertions in gen-skill-docs.test.ts (Codex,
Factory) and host-config.test.ts (Copilot, Antigravity) read SKILL.md
alone, so a Claude path that moved into sections/preamble.md with the
hoist went unchecked. They now read the skill's startup text through
readSkillStartup. workflow-judge-input and host-conformance use the
SHARED_PREAMBLE_FILE constant instead of a bare 'preamble.md' literal,
and preamble.ts's header describes the hoisted composition.

* docs: CHANGELOG token savings name the per-skill skip and the autoplan follow-up (ship review pass 2)

The pointer's skip is bound to the skill's own copy of sections/preamble.md,
so "every later one saves about 5,800" holds per skill, not per session, and
/autoplan's skip list and the inline /office-hours loader do not yet skip the
pointer section. The entry now says so instead of claiming the full /autoplan
saving. Adding the skip entry grows size-pinned skills, so it is a follow-up.

* test: corpus budget measures startup bytes; carve-safety counts shared preamble as uncarved (ship review pass 2)

skill-size-budget's growth ceiling and shrink floor already measured
SKILL.md plus sections/preamble.md, but the total-corpus check still summed
hoisted SKILL.md bytes against the pre-hoist baseline, hiding about 0.9 MB
of headroom. It now sums the same startup bytes (3,114,885 -> 2,590,484,
x0.832); the unreachable SKILL.md-missing fallback is gone.

auq-format-always-loaded's carve-safety guard treated any sections/ dir as
carved, so every skill with only the shared preamble ran it and its sanity
check passed on preamble.md. It now uses setup --status's rule: a section
other than the shared preamble. Those skills keep the per-skill checks.

* test: remaining SKILL.md-only negatives read the shared preamble too (ship review pass 3)

The parameterized external-host path-leak smoke test, the two Codex
.claude path checks and both vestigial-handshake negatives read SKILL.md
alone, so text that moved into sections/preamble.md went unchecked. They
now read readSkillStartup. preamble.ts's header no longer says tier 1
renders through generatePreamble().

* test: ratchet skeleton caps and eager context ceilings down after the hoist (ship review pass 3)

The hoist moved about 22 KB out of every tier 2+ SKILL.md, which left
each hoisted maxSkeletonBytes cap and each eagerPerInvocation ceiling
roughly 22 KB / 5-6K tokens slack. The 20 hoisted skeleton caps now sit at
the post-hoist skeleton plus their pre-hoist headroom, and 42 context-budget
ceilings take the recaptured (lower) values. Nothing was raised: the four
ceilings the recapture would have raised keep their old values.

* fix: preamble-hoist's section splitter closes a fence only on a bare delimiter (ship Step 11)

Inside an open fence, a line such as "```bash" is content in CommonMark,
but splitSections treated it as the closing fence, so a later "## " line in
the same block could split a section mid-code-block and hoist half of it.
A closing delimiter now needs nothing but whitespace after it. Every host's
render is unchanged (gen-skill-docs --dry-run FRESH on all twelve hosts).

* test: skill-startup.ts is a global, pinned harness file like skill-fixture.ts (ship review pass 3)

skill-fixture.ts is a global touchfile pinned in scripts/harness-version.json
because it reshapes the skill content most E2E suites read, and it now
builds that content through test/helpers/skill-startup.ts. That helper was
in neither list, so a later edit to it would change fixture inputs without
the harness-version guard and select only 27 keys. It is now global and
pinned, recorded non-behavioral (its fixtures are byte-identical to the
pre-hoist output). ARCHITECTURE.md and the CHANGELOG stop calling the
pointer id a content id: it hashes the shared text before host rewrites.

* docs: CHANGELOG matches the merged skip lists and the baseline diff (ship review, run 4)

The headline still called the autoplan and inline /office-hours skip
entries a follow-up, but the main merge added them; it now says the loaded
skills skip their shared Read. The #3451 sentence is dropped, because that
fix shipped in v1.91.237.0 and is recorded there. The typecheck baseline
line says the TS2769 entry was re-keyed for the 'preamble' artifact kind
with its count unchanged, not fixed and lowered.

* test: pin the pointer entry in the loader skip lists; drop a carve-safety tautology (ship review, run 4)

A new INVOKE_SKILL test checks that plan-ceo-review's inline /office-hours
skip list and autoplan's section skip list both name the shared-preamble
pointer heading, and that office-hours and the four plan reviews carry it.
The carve-safety "sanity" assertion repeated the predicate discoverSkills()
now uses to set sectionsDir, so it could never fail; it is removed.

* fix: gstack-doctor finds the Codex model patch in the hoisted shared preamble (ship Step 11, run 4)

The doctor's patch row grepped only the Codex review SKILL.md for the
"Model-Specific Behavioral Patch (" heading. The hoist moves that section
into sections/preamble.md, so the required row (for ship, review, the plan
reviews, office-hours, investigate and more) would fail on every correct
post-hoist Codex install and block install.sh's "gstack: ok". It now checks
the SKILL.md and then its shared preamble and names the file it found. A
new doctor test covers a hoisted render.

preamble-hoist's variantSubsections also returns null when no subsection
differs, instead of emitting a replacing heading with no subsections.
Every host's render is unchanged.

* test(docsync): fixtureDocs installs the generated sections/preamble.md (hunk taken from #3472)

A generated skill that loads the shared preamble names sections/preamble.md
as a required asset before skill start, and a spawned document-release child
blocks on its absence, so docsync-spawned stayed red on every #3434 screen.
fixtureDocs now copies that file when the generated skill has it.

This single hunk is taken unchanged from gstack#3472 (head 2e3f7ba1,
GSTA-107), which trains ahead of #3434, so the train merge sees identical
lines. Nothing else from #3472 is included.

# Absorbs the bash that every generated SKILL.md used to inline twice over
# (the "Preamble (run first)" bootstrap fence and the "Artifacts Sync" fence,
# ~13KB per skill x 50 skills). The generated skill now carries a one-line

# Enumerated divergences from the inline original (plan EOV5):
# - Paths resolve $0-relative (works for every host + install layout) instead
# of gen-time interpolation.
# - Session identity is the HARNESS pid, derived here: the nearest non-shell
# ancestor ($PPID inside this script is the ephemeral tool-call shell —
# wrong identity). --parent-pid still overrides it. The rendered command
# passes no "$PPID" (#2763: worktree-isolated Claude Code sessions refuse
# variables and fallbacks in the start command).
# - State paths honor ${GSTACK_HOME} (EOV7); the inline original hardcoded
# ~/.gstack in the bootstrap half.
# - SESSION_ID / TEL_START are echoed (the inline shell vars never survived
# across Bash tool calls, so skill-end durations were already broken; the
# echo makes them real).
# - SKILL_START_PROTO handshake (OV5): prose treats a missing/unexpected
# proto as a degraded install and applies safe defaults.
# - Passthrough sub-command output is sanitized (OV4): GSTACK_INSTRUCTION
# markers cannot be injected into the blessed tool result by learnings,

Never code, file paths, prompts, repo or branch names. Your repo and branch are also logged on this machine (analytics/skill-usage.jsonl) and stripped before upload; off logs nothing. Not covered by this answer: the update check asks GitHub for the latest version about hourly (\`gstack-config set update_check false\`), and outside reviews send code to Codex or Claude Code (\`gstack-config set codex_reviews disabled\`). Details: README "Privacy & Telemetry".
Options:
- A) Help gstack get better! (recommended)
- B) No thanks
If A: run \`$_BIN/gstack-config set telemetry community\`. If B, ask the follow-up:

## Skill routing
When the user's request matches an available skill, invoke it via the Skill tool. Route only to skills in the session's available-skills list; answer directly for quick questions or small scoped edits.
Key routing rules:
- Product ideas/brainstorming → invoke /office-hours
- Strategy/scope → invoke /plan-ceo-review
- Architecture → invoke /plan-eng-review
- Design system/plan review → invoke /design-consultation or /plan-design-review
- Full review pipeline → invoke /autoplan
- Bugs/errors → invoke /investigate, unless one read-only check confirms the cause and a narrow fix (then fix it and run the focused test)
- QA/testing site behavior → invoke /qa or /qa-only
- Code review/diff check → invoke /review
- Visual polish → invoke /design-review
- Ship/deploy/PR → invoke /ship or /land-and-deploy
- Save progress → invoke /context-save
- Resume context → invoke /context-restore
- Author a backlog-ready spec/issue → invoke /spec
If B: run `__BIN__/gstack-config set routing_declined true` and say they can re-enable with `__BIN__/gstack-config set routing_declined false`. This only happens once per project.

_emit_block unattended-session <<EOI
You are running unattended: a parent agent started this run and reads its record, not your prose (docs/unattended.md names each skill's record). Rules: do NOT call AskUserQuestion and do NOT render prose decision briefs. At every question take the option marked (recommended). A question with no recommendation, any consent, any destructive or irreversible option, and the final approval gate stay pending: never choose them. You never approve a gate, never mark a plan APPROVED, never publish, push, sync or send data off this machine, and never record a consent; the only exception is the one named in your skill's record rule below. $_UA_RECORD Skip every onboarding, upgrade, telemetry, routing and lake instruction. Host adaptation: there may be no Skill tool, no slash commands and no hooks here; read the skill file with your file-reading tool, run its bash blocks as written, treat each bash block's printed STATUS lines as the only source of session facts, and write results to files the parent names rather than relying on chat text being read.

_emit_block capy-asks <<EOI
You run under Capy. Every decision this workflow cannot take itself (a pending gate item, a consent, an unrecommended question, a plan approval) goes through Capy's messaging, never as a bare question or gate codes: in a crew thread, a needs-you report to your Captain; with no Captain, a Capy question to the person. Write it in plain language: what it is, why it matters, what each answer does and costs, your pick, and the one-word reply. A plan approval is rendered with \`gstack-owner-brief render --captain --out <run dir>\` (before -> after, why it matters, what caused this work, big decisions, what we need) and relayed whole; fix the plan first if it exits CAPTAIN_BRIEF_INCOMPLETE. Record every answer with the person's exact words: \`gstack-approvals add\` (or \`gstack-approvals import --autoplan <run dir>\` after an autoplan answer). Cite standing approvals your Captain lists instead of asking again; always ask fresh for a product or behaviour decision, spend over a stated cap, anything published outside the repository, a threshold, budget or trial-count change, closing someone's contribution without landing it, and anything destructive. A pull request opened by /ship follows its Capy section (What changed with before/after images, Why, Approvals). The launch environment reaches a command, your own or a child's, through \`. <the GSTACK_LAUNCH_FILE the installer printed>\` in the shell that runs it; never \`export \$(...)\`, \`env\`, \`printenv\` or a bare \`set\` in a tool fence: a bare \`export\` prints every variable, credentials included.
