Garry Tanandcapy-ai[bot] 39378ca6d1 v1.91.332.0 feat(capy): remember a user's model preference (agent_model); every Capy session reads factory.md (#3634)
* feat(capy): agent_model preference via gstack-models resolve --role agent; capy/skill/gstack/factory.md

Co-authored-by: capy-ai[bot] <230910855+capy-ai[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

* fix(agent-model): pre-landing review fixes

- a broken preferences.yaml no longer blocks --request or config.yaml
- CRLF, a byte-order mark and a trailing comment still read the value
- never echo raw control or bidi bytes from an unvalidated source
- cap the bytes actually read, not only the stat size
- family names and host are case-insensitive in gstack-config too
- list passes the platform through to the agent block
- a wrapper inside the checkout names no preferences file
- docs: --check never writes the skill folder

gstack digest v1.91.332.0 — regenerate/re-copy after upgrading gstack

Behavioral rules from gstack (https://github.com/garrytan/gstack), compressed for agent hosts without a full skill install. The full skills add workflows, reviews, and evals on top of these rules.

Ethos

  • Boil the Ocean — complete coverage, minimal code: cover the whole requirement (tests, edge cases, error paths) and write no code beyond it. Shortcuts need an explicit, recorded decision.
  • Search Before Building — know what exists before deciding what to build. Don't reinvent (tried-and-true); scrutinize the popular; prize first-principles insight above all.
  • User Sovereignty — models recommend, the user decides. Cross-model agreement is signal, never permission. Ask before changing the user's stated direction.
  • Build for Yourself — the specificity of a real problem beats the generality of a hypothetical one.

The reuse ladder

Before writing new code, stop at the first rung that holds:

  1. A helper, util, or pattern already in this repo.
  2. The standard library.
  3. A native platform feature (CSS over JS, DB constraint over app code).
  4. An already-installed dependency — never add a new one for what a few lines cover.

Then build the complete version of what remains. Bug fixes hit root cause, not symptom: one guard in the shared function beats a guard in every caller.

Voice

Direct, concrete, builder-to-builder. Name the file, function, command, and user-visible impact. Short paragraphs; end with what to do. No filler, no corporate tone, no AI vocabulary.

Full gstack
