Layer C of the plan written after the 2026-09-21 wipe (BDR-095): a reviewer
sub-agent traced `lftp mirror --delete` against a local file:// tree, the
prose tiers named neither lftp nor a local trace, the brief had authorized
it, and four days of commits had never left the machine.
- gitflow: `start` pushes the branch with its upstream, merge targets are
pushed after each merge, and `init`/`install-hook` write post-commit and
post-merge hooks that push every commit as it lands (warn, never block;
GITFLOW_NO_PUSH=1 for throwaway repos). T18 + T19 (installed == emitted).
- hooks/unpushed-guard.sh on SessionStart and Stop: branch ahead of its
upstream, no upstream, or no origin. Non-blocking systemMessage.
- settings.json: static deny for transfer and mirror tools, rsync --delete,
xargs rm, pipe-to-shell, chmod/chown -R, sudo/doas/pkexec, disk tools,
chattr, docker volume drops/prune/--privileged/socket/-v /:, git history
destruction, --no-verify and core.hooksPath; new hard_deny "destructive
tool against a local path, brief carries no user authority"; soft_deny
reworded + discarding uncommitted work; environment records the incident.
- CLAUDE.global.md "Destructive tools & data loss"; the four report-only
agents trace by reading, never by running, whatever the brief says.
- lib/tests/guard-bash.test.sh: executable spec of the PreToolUse guard
(214 cases). The hook itself is not shipped (BLK-022); the spec skips.
Opus 5 follows conservative-reporting clauses literally; 'a manufactured
concern is a failure' risked suppressing real low-confidence findings.
In-place reword: ungrounded stays noise, grounded-but-uncertain files as
[MINOR] with the uncertainty in WHY:. OUTPUT grammar byte-identical;
census row added.
Reverses the BDR-066 rejected alternative (opus pins on audit agents):
session default is now Fable, so inherit burned Fable quota on every
dispatched audit/challenge. analyzer, plan-challenger, seo/geo/
validator-analyzer pinned model: opus; onboard's 6 general-purpose
audit dispatches carry model="opus"; tour Phase B repointed.
interviewer + client-handover-writer stay unpinned (inline-load only,
a pin there is inert). settings.json default: claude-fable-5[1m].
Census flipped: model-routing §3 + new §11 (61 pass), loops-light 35,
full make test green.
After a plan/reflection is elaborated and before it executes, three fresh blind
sub-agents (correctness / robustness / simplicity) attack it on the big model;
the main loop RE-THINKS every aspect a BLOCKER lands (a named plan change, or
[deferred]) and re-challenges once if the plan materially changed. Advisory into
each skill's existing human gate — the human stays the decider.
- lib/challenge-plan.md — reusable phase: fail-safe (never fail open),
severity-driven (any single-lens BLOCKER = must-address), RE-THINK loop
- agents/plan-challenger.md — challenger role (read-only, big-model per BDR-066)
- lib/tests/plan-challenger.test.sh — 41-assertion structure lock
- wired into 11 orchestrators: ship-feature/init-project/feat/bugfix (build-plan),
onboard/audit-delta/code-clean (proposals), seo/geo/harden/web-validate (fix-bundle)
Hardened by dogfooding: 3 blind challengers reviewed this feature's own v1 plan
and caught 4 BLOCKERs (fail-open, consensus-buries-lone-finding, wrong model
tier vs BDR-066, false on-disk-plan premise) — all fixed here.
