The 21st pack refresh (update-all 7.4) rewrites every 21st-* SKILL.md after
the superpowers refresh; the re-apply now sits after it, the census locks
the order in both scripts. Contract: criterion 3 anchor, shellcheck
directive authorized, tracked design-motion-principles copy gated.
- lib/effort-pins.txt (map) + lib/effort-pins.sh (idempotent re-apply)
replace the hardcoded brainstorming/writing-plans loop; called after the
last vendoring step of install-plugins.sh AND update-all.sh (the resync
dropped the pins until the next make plugin)
- design stack high uniform (last loaded wins), superpowers, agent-skills,
21st pack pinned from the map; skills-perso low, pdf-translate medium,
site-motion high
- doctrine: design stack loads paired with the first Read; one level per
stack (CLAUDE.global.md, lib/effort-shift.md)
- lib/effort-audit.py prints thinking coverage per scope (sub-agent records
carry no thinking count on ~94 % of requests)
- census map-driven + fixture suite lib/tests/effort-pins.test.sh; docs
README/USAGE/CHANGELOG; contract + TODO plan
Ubuntu's gitleaks 8.16 package has no git subcommand, so the hook's
"unknown command" exit 1 blocked every commit as a leak. Probe
gitleaks git --help once, fall back to protect --staged; regenerate the
installed hooks. T16c simulates a missing binary with a /usr/bin symlink
farm minus gitleaks instead of a shorter PATH.
skip_kind matched SKIP_SUBSTRINGS as plain substrings, so 'xit(' hit
exit(, SystemExit( and process.exit(, and 'fit(' hit model.fit( and
profit(, flagging FLOOR SKIP on ordinary test-file lines (BLK-023). The
four bare identifiers (xit, fit, xdescribe, fdescribe) now match through
SKIP_IDENT_RE with an identifier-boundary lookbehind; the dotted and
decorator forms stay substrings. Flip-test fixtures cover the false
positive (RED before, GREEN after) and the three focus/skip calls.
Every superpowers-prefixed skill call in ship-feature, init-project, tour,
deploy, audit-delta, plugin-advisor and lib/analyze-before-plan now names
the vendored skill directly. finishing-a-development-branch is described
as the upstream skill this config does not vendor (gitflow finish is the
integration path). CLAUDE.global.md Skill routing maps the four
non-vendored skills the vendored text still references. settings.json
loses the plugin key and its marketplace block; README, USAGE,
plugin-advisor and the profile skill describe superpowers as vendored
skills, always on, zero plugin cost. CHANGELOG entry with a known
residual.
plugins.lock.json gains a superpowers entry (obra/superpowers @ 5bf4e78,
path skills, per-skill file lists, always_on) that lib/vendor-skills.sh
fetches byte-for-byte: brainstorming, writing-plans,
subagent-driven-development, test-driven-development,
requesting-code-review, using-git-worktrees, writing-skills. install-plugins
STEP 8e vendors it, update-all refreshes it at the pin, link.sh links the
seven, .gitignore ignores them. The plugin is no longer installed or
protected: its 8 other skills duplicated personal flows and its
SessionStart injection cost ~900 tokens per start, clear and compact.
detect_superpowers is one file test on the linked skill; doctor and
session-start stop charging the injection. doctor-vendored gains an
always_on class (third lock column) so always-on externals are
link-checked instead of reported parked.
The design gate checked the 21st CLI with command -v only, so an
installed-but-signed-out CLI read as READY and every 21st step failed
downstream. tool_active now probes 21st whoami through a three-state
function: signed in (TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN or API_KEY_21ST set, or 'Logged in
as'), signed out (exact 'Not logged in'), unknown (rc != 0, timeout,
unexpected output). Signed out is a new verdict, SIGN-IN REQUIRED, exit
12: design-gate.md tells the orchestrator to ask the user to run
! 21st login, end the turn, re-run the gate on their reply, and to skip
21st only on an explicit 'proceed without 21st', never silently. Unknown
surfaces as exit 11 with the whoami diagnostic and a CLI-runtime remedy,
so a node/PATH failure can never loop on a sign-in prompt. INCOMPLETE
still wins. Hermetic suite lib/tests/design-tool-gate.test.sh (stub CLI,
fixture repo through DESIGN_GATE_REPO_OVERRIDE) covers every state.
settings.json: ENABLE_STOP_REVIEW=0 (the plugin's own switch: no more
Opus call on every turn that changes code, 0 findings in 6 days, 1
recorded false positive; the regex layer and the commit/push agentic
review stay on), brightdata-plugin@synced false (keyless-useless, its MCP
skill would hijack WebFetch/WebSearch), frontend-design official plugin
entry gone (uninstalled: byte-identical to the managed copy).
CLAUDE.global.md routes Ship/PR to ship-feature (gstack ship takes
origin/HEAD = main as base), drops ship/context-save from the gstack-off
list and 21st-ui-review from the design review line (trio is max-only).
deploy's table no longer points at land-and-deploy/setup-deploy.
plugin-advisor.md describes security-guidance's real mechanics. CHANGELOG
Unreleased entry with a Known residual section.
gstack skills hardcode ~/.claude/skills/gstack/<path> for 83 shared assets
(bin, scripts/jargon-list.json, ETHOS.md, */sections, review/specialists,
make-pdf/dist, lib/diagram-render/dist, freeze/bin...) but only bin and
browse/dist were linked: make-pdf and diagram failed on every run, cso and
plan-*-review could not read their sections, the freeze hook exited 127.
lib/gstack-links.sh links every top-level entry except SKILL.md, skips
non-skill dirs holding a nested SKILL.md (browser-skills, openclaw,
node_modules), removes the global symlink gstack ./setup plants and refuses
a destination inside the submodule. link.sh, install-plugins.sh and
update-all.sh all call it (three hand-copied blocks gone).
doctor.sh counted 34 skills (find without -L) and zero chars for block
scalar descriptions; lib/doctor-skills.sh reuses the census parser and
counts through the symlinks. Plugin constants re-based on measured values;
install-plugins.sh notes why frontend-design@claude-plugins-official and
brightdata-plugin@synced stay off and describes security-guidance truthfully.
