 - **Status**: resolved (A: ext hooks only terminals born after activation → install ext THEN start/re-attach session; B: Code app volume 0 in Windows mixer).
 - **Lesson**: two independent client faults presented as one symptom ("nothing works"). Splitting probe = run signal in FRESH terminal + play VS Code's own sound preview. Preview bypasses terminal/BEL/hook/dtach/ext → isolates renderer audio in one step. Do that FIRST next time, before any server-side archaeology.

-## BLK-021 — Bash tool dead mid-session ("every command exits 1"): /tmp usrquota blown by a dead session's probe HOMEs — 2026-09-22
- **Friction**: previous session on `feature/21st-cli-migration` lost its shell before tests + commit: every Bash call, `echo` included, returned 1. Its harness file `imptest2/step8d-test.sh` landed as 0 bytes.
- **Real cause** (strong evidence, not reproduced on purpose): `/tmp` = tmpfs 7.4 GB mounted `usrquota`; `/tmp/claude-1000/-home-bchanot-Documents-claude/fefd277c-…/scratchpad` holds 5.9 GB of sandbox HOMEs (`pinprobe/` 2.1 GB, `pinrc/` 1.6 GB, `imp1 impg imptest sbx1 sbx2 v3.2.0 v3.6.1 v4.0.5 …`) from the impeccable pin probes. `dd` 40 MB to `/tmp/claude-1000` → "Disk quota exceeded" (EDQUOT) while `df` still shows 1.6 GB avail. Same write to `~/.cache` OK. Bash tool + `mktemp` + heredocs live in /tmp → all die together. This session: first impeccable probe failed with `Quota exceeded (os error 122)` on the installer's `/tmp/impeccable-update-*` staging, same cause.
- **Solution**: this round ran everything with `TMPDIR=~/.cache/imp-probe/tmp` (probe, harness, `make test`). Durable fix = delete the dead session's scratchpad: `rm -rf /tmp/claude-1000/-home-bchanot-Documents-claude/fefd277c-e143-4d51-b589-a566641079b5` (agent's `rm -rf` on /tmp denied by the classifier → user action). Rule for probes: sandbox HOMEs that pull npm/node payloads go under `~/.cache/<probe>/`, never the /tmp scratchpad, and get removed at the end of the session.
- **Recurred same day**: this session's shell died the same way mid-G8 (BDR-095 amendment) while the 5.9 GB still sat there; recovered the moment the user deleted the dir. Mechanism now established, not inferred: stock `/usr/lib/systemd/system/tmp.mount` mounts /tmp with `x-systemd.graceful-option=usrquota` (no override, no fstab line on this machine) and systemd caps each user at 80% of the tmpfs → 0.8 × 7.4 GB = 5.9 GB, the exact volume observed. One quota for every session AND every sub-agent of the uid: multi-session is not the cause, the shared cap is.
- **Durable fix**: (1) launch claude with `TMPDIR=$HOME/.cache/claude-tmp` (in `~/.bashrc` `dtach_claude()`, before `exec claude`; `mkdir -p` it) → Claude Code's scratchpad, tool outputs, `mktemp` and npm staging all leave the tmpfs; children inherit. (2) `~/.config/user-tmpfiles.d/claude-tmp.conf` with `e %h/.cache/claude-tmp - - - 3d` + the user `systemd-tmpfiles-clean.timer` so dead-session dirs age out. (3) `make doctor` "Scratchpad" section warns while TMPDIR sits on a quota'd tmpfs. Probe rule unchanged: HOMEs with npm payloads under `~/.cache/<probe>/`.

-## BLK-022 — `hooks/guard-bash.sh` withheld by the safety classifier; executable spec shipped instead — 2026-09-22
- **Friction**: layer C item G2 (PreToolUse Bash guard: whole-command scan incl. nested `bash -c`, `docker compose run … lftp`, scripts the command runs; exit 2 + reason + `logger` trace; fail-closed without jq). The response carrying the hook body was stopped by a safety classifier mid-write; content withheld, instruction not to regenerate it.
- **Real cause**: the hook body is a dense list of destructive-command patterns (rm -r forms, disk tools, docker escapes, history rewrites); the classifier reads it as harmful capability regardless of the defensive frame.
- **Solution**: `lib/tests/guard-bash.test.sh` (214 cases, deny/allow) stays as the spec and SKIPs while the hook is absent, so `make test` stays green. Options: user writes the hook against the spec (start from `/mnt/cloudpex/RECOVERY/01-prochain-systeme/claude-config/hooks/guard-bash.sh`, already on disk, then iterate to green); or a different design (allowlist of first words + path containment) requested explicitly. Until then: static deny (BDR-095) covers the direct forms; nested forms rely on the classifier prose.
- **Status**: open. Links [[BDR-095]], [[LRN-160]].

-## BLK-023 — floor-guard `xit(` substring flags every `exit(` — 2026-09-28
- **Friction**: fresh verifier returned ECARTS(1) on a fully conform diff: `FLOOR SKIP lib/tests/profile-census.test.sh:116 sys.exit(1 if violations else 0)`. One re-dispatch spent on a tool artefact.
- **Real cause**: `lib/floor-guard.sh` SKIP_SUBSTRINGS holds the bare fragment `'xit('` to catch Jasmine's `xit(…)`; `skip_kind()` is a plain substring match, so `sys.exit(`, `SystemExit(`, `process.exit(` all hit.
- **Solution**: workaround applied — the inline python prints violations only, the bash wrapper derives the return code from the captured output (no `exit(` anywhere). Root fix pending: word-bound the pattern (`(^|[^a-zA-Z_.])xit\(`) or match `xit(` only in JS/TS test files; hotfix-sized.
- **Status**: resolved 2026-09-28 — hotfix 0deb559 (bugfix/floor-guard-xit-boundary): the four bare Jasmine identifiers moved into `SKIP_IDENT_RE` with lookbehind `(?<![A-Za-z0-9_.])`, dotted/decorator forms stay substrings; fixtures SKIP_EXIT_CLEAN (RED before, GREEN after) + xit/fit/fdescribe flags. Residual `shortcut:` in the guard: `def fit(` / `function xit(` still match, `xit (` / `xit.each(` still do not (as before). Links [[BDR-105]], [[BDR-102]] (floor-guard origin), [[EVAL-034]].

-## BLK-024 — resync dropped the vendored effort pins, twice — 2026-09-29
- **Friction**: [[BDR-107]] re-applied brainstorming/writing-plans xhigh only in install-plugins.sh STEP 8e; update-all.sh §7.3 re-fetches at the same commit → SKILL.md overwritten, `effort:` gone until the next `make plugin`. Latent since 2026-09-28.
- **Real cause (second instance)**: my re-apply call landed after the superpowers refresh; update-all.sh §7.4 (21st pack) runs LATER and `rm -rf` + `mv` every 21st-* SKILL.md. My grep of update-all.sh was truncated by rtk ("+28 more hidden") and I read the partial listing as the whole file. Fresh verifier caught it (ECARTS).
- **Solution**: `lib/effort-pins.txt` + `lib/effort-pins.sh` called ONCE after the LAST vendoring step of both scripts; census locks the order by line number (`ln_last`). Rule: a truncated tool listing is not a census; re-run without the pager or grep the anchor directly.
- **Status**: resolved 2026-09-29 (feature/effort-round, [[BDR-108]]).

 ## BDR-026 — Secret source-of-truth outside the repo (`~/.claude/.env`) reached via a `repo/.env` symlink
+
 - **Date**: 2026-06-21
 - **Status**: accepted
- **Decision**: real secret lives in `~/.claude/.env` (outside git tree); `repo/.env` = symlink → it. `source "$REPO/.env"` follows symlink → ZERO change to any read path (`toggle-external.sh` `load_env`, `install-plugins.sh` check, gate). `link.sh` `link_env()` defensive: links only when `repo/.env` absent or already the right link; a residual REAL `repo/.env` is left untouched with a migrate hint — never clobbered, so the secret can't be destroyed. Idempotent. `.gitignore` hardened to `.env` + `.env.*` + `!.env.example`. Messages point at `~/.claude/.env` (canonical edit location).
- **Why**: secret never enters the git tree — not as content (it's a link) nor by accident (gitignored). Even a stray `git add .` can't stage the real key. Repo stays usable: symlink visible/editable from repo. Read paths follow the link → no script logic changed.

 ## BDR-057 — job7: secrets by reference not by value; redact at capture, not just at rest
+
 - **Date**: 2026-07-07
 - **Status**: accepted
 - **Decision**: two-part posture from the job7 triage (`.audit/job7/ALL-REDACTED.json`, 5+ leak classes across `~/.claude` and repos). (1) Wherever the consuming tool supports it, wire secrets BY REFERENCE (`${VAR}` expansion), not by value — closed the concrete case: `lib/toggle-external.sh`'s `claude mcp add magic --env API_KEY="$MAGIC_API_KEY"` materialized the key as plaintext into `~/.claude.json` (a 2nd copy outside the `~/.claude/.env` canonical); fixed to `--env 'API_KEY=${MAGIC_API_KEY}'`, with the var reaching `claude` only via a scoped `~/.bashrc` wrapper function (subshell + exec — never the ambient shell). (2) Redact AT THE CAPTURE POINT, not just after the fact: `hooks/rtk-rewrite.sh` now appends a redaction pipe to bare `printenv`/`env` dumps before they can reach stdout/the transcript (the GITEA leak's actual vector), instead of relying solely on scrubbing artifacts after the fact.
 - **Why**: the job6 incident ([[LRN-107]]) and the GITEA leak both trace back to a secret VALUE existing somewhere it didn't strictly need to (a config field, a raw env dump) rather than a reference/redacted form. Fixing storage-at-rest (scrub backups) treats the symptom and must be redone every time a new copy appears (5 rotating `.claude.json.backup.*` files, 2 of 5 still had it live mid-job7 despite the canonical fix already applied) — fixing the SOURCE (don't materialize the value; redact before the dump leaves the process) is the only version that doesn't need repeating.
- **Alternatives rejected**: scrub-only (job7's own fallback if reference support were absent) — verified Claude Code DOES support `${VAR}` expansion in `mcpServers` config (user + project scope, `env`/`command`/`args`/`url`/`headers` fields — code.claude.com/docs/en/mcp.md) → reference form available, preferred; global `export MAGIC_API_KEY` in `~/.bashrc` — works but exposes the secret to every subprocess of every shell, defeats the redaction hook (user rejected, scoped wrapper kept).

 - **Status**: accepted (supersedes the 275-line density TARGET of [[BDR-031]] only; BDR-031's core principle — lightening = compression, not path-scope/externalization — stands unchanged)
- **Decision**: global CLAUDE.md sits at 305 lines, stays there. job1's density pass took it 319→305 and no later job re-inflated it; the extraction BDR-031 called for is done. Old 275 target (or the 280 guard) now costs clarity more than it saves tokens. The `hooks/session-start.sh` guard threshold is realigned 280→320: still catches genuine regression (real bloat past 320) but stops firing a permanent "density pass requis" warning on an assumed-final 305.
- **Why**: the review (`.audit/review-release-1.0.0.md` A6) found the guard had warned every session since job1 without the target ever being met — a self-inflicted permanent warning, not an actionable signal. A gate that never goes green trains you to ignore it. Realign to reality; 15-line margin keeps real regressions visible.
- **Alternatives rejected**: (a) finish the compression 305→≤275 — the remaining lines are load-bearing constraints, not filler; further squeeze loses clarity for a marginal token gain on a solo repo. (b) leave the guard at 280 and accept the permanent warning — a permanently-red non-blocking gate is noise. (c) rewrite BDR-031 — registries append-only; supersede the target, keep the principle.

 Reverses the BDR-066 rejected alternative "opus pins on audit agents (session-independent)". Context changed: session default now Fable (Mythos tier, /model 2026-07-19) — inherit meant every dispatched audit/challenge burned Fable quota, exactly the waste BDR-066 killed for executors. New rule: Fable does ONLY main-loop orchestration + reflection (brainstorm, plan, contract, synthesis, gates); EVERY dispatched subagent pinned. Pinned `model: opus` (big tier, session-independent; NEVER sonnet — silent audit downgrade, the thing old §F5 guarded): analyzer, plan-challenger, seo-analyzer, geo-analyzer, validator-analyzer + onboard's 6 general-purpose audit dispatches (`model="opus"`) + tour Phase B. NOT pinned (justified deviation from approved "7 agents"): interviewer + client-handover-writer — inline-load only, never dispatched → frontmatter pin inert + misleading (BDR-066 wave-4 precedent: its inert opus pin was dropped); they ARE the main loop = Fable per the rule. Explore built-in stays inherit (wave-3 decision conserved: no owned prompt, search feeds inline reflection). Local session pin `opus-4-8[1m]` dropped from `.claude/settings.local.json` (gitignored) — Fable default from settings.json now applies in this repo too. model-gate.md unchanged (still guards inline reflection, Fable-or-Opus = big).

Doctrine: session model (Fable) = main-loop reflection/orchestration/planning/logic ONLY; main-loop retention criteria = interactive | conversation-context access | orchestration decision | dispatch overhead > step cost. NOTHING dispatched inherits: typed agents = frontmatter pin, built-ins = `model=` at every call site (`fable` for skill-runner reflection children, else complexity tier). Spike+smoke proven: `model:"fable"` resolves claude-fable-5 (enum-validated, loud fail, no silent fallback); call-site override BEATS a typed pin (sonnet-pinned verifier ran haiku). Fail-safe pin rule: mixed-mode agents keep the HIGH tier as pin, overrides go DOWN — forgotten override over-tiers (cost), never downgrades judgment. Mode-based splits (commit-changer precedent generalized; file splits rejected): doc-syncer audit(opus)/patch(sonnet) — ALSO fixed a latent defect: /doc dispatched an agent whose STEP 8 interactive gate could never fire; gates hoisted to a DISPATCHER PROTOCOL section; handover-doc-writer synthesize(opus)/render(sonnet) via run-scoped `.audit/handover-draft-<RUNID>.md` + DRAFT COMPLETE sentinel; seo/geo collect(sonnet)/judge(OPUS PIN)/template(sonnet) via `.audit/*-signals-<RUNID>.md` + COLLECTION COMPLETE + fail-closed judge + dispatcher ERROR contract (mute/ERROR judge NEVER carried into templating; retry once, escalate).

Skill comparison: same core doctrine (root-cause iron law, hypothesis loop, regression test, 3-strike stop, >5-files alert) but incompatible wrappers — investigate monolithic (same context investigates+fixes+verifies, ~1075-line SKILL.md w/ gstack preamble/telemetry/onboarding, capitalizes to `~/.gstack` learnings.jsonl framework never reads at session start); bugfix orchestrator (reflection inline, sonnet bugfixer executor, fresh gates — BDR-066, LRN-083).

 Opus 5 (released 2026-07-24) now backs every `model: opus` pin (BDR-076/077) + any `/model opus` session. Research (official migration guide + web + registries): Opus 5 OVER-delegates (inverts LRN-030 Opus 4.8 trait that CLAUDE.global.md:43-47 compensated), self-verifies (explicit verify instructions → over-verification, "removing them reduces wasted tokens with no loss in quality"), literal following (conservative-reporting clauses depress recall; MUST/CRITICAL over-triggers), scope expansion = named regression, written deliverables +30-40%.

+### BDR-083 — contract gates: deterministic floor (GATE 0) under the verifier [accepted] (2026-08-24)
 User asked what to take from `unlazy` skill (Leonxlnx/unlazy 2.1.0, MIT). Verdict on its verification ARCHITECTURE: teaches nothing we lack — contract + fresh blind verifier + bounded loops + order invariant already shipped (BDR-049/050/066, LRN-083). Real gap found elsewhere: between executor and GATE 1, NO deterministic floor. GATE 1 = LLM dispatch; verifier's mandatory `PROOF:` line = a line the verifier WRITES — nothing structurally stops it being produced without executing anything (LRN-048 demands a pass prove it looked; the proof is self-reported prose). Decision: import unlazy's gate ledger INTO the existing contract, never alongside it. Palier 2, user-chosen over doctrine-only / defer.
 TAKEN: criterion carries an oracle (indented `CHECK:` cmd + `EXPECT:` success-only marker + `EVIDENCE:` slot); fail-closed = exit 0 AND marker (a nonzero process never passes because its error text carries the token); evidence persisted INTO the contract → the fresh verifier reads fact, not the executor's report; `ABANDON: <id> <non-blank reason>` = impossible criterion never deleted, blocks CONFORME, routes to human gate (new verdict token `ABANDONED(n)` — distinct routing from ECARTS ⇒ distinct token, not a sub-line to re-derive); 4 gate-authoring rules (observe the named artifact / success-only marker / positive control before any absence check / recompute supplied numbers, never copy one into EXPECT); 4-pass executor discipline (feater full; bugfixer narrowed to fix+test under "keep the fix minimal", pass 3 = negative control proving the regression test fails without the fix).
 REFUSED + why: Stop hook `decision:"block"` — contradicts "STOP + human escalation", "gone WRONG → STOP re-plan", "merge only on explicit human signal"; a hook FORCING continuation is the inverse of our gates; its 6-block release either traps the session or gives up; each block = an agent continuation = real tokens. Approval store `~/.unlazy/approved` (binds ledger+cmd+CWD+shell+timeout+platform+full PATH) — exists to execute ledgers INHERITED from untrusted repos; our contracts are authored by our own orchestrator in our own repo ⇒ biggest chunk of their 28k checker closes zero threat here. `.unlazy/<scope>/` tree (PLAN+GATES+gates/+status.log+session+hook-state+locks/) — a 4th bookkeeping tree beside .claude/tasks/{contracts,plans} + memory/ + audits/. `tree N` Depth-Tree effort arithmetic — disowned by unlazy's OWN research/validation-protocol.md (v1 six-run figures unreproducible), while the repo DESCRIPTION still advertises the retracted claim. Node checker (28k .mjs + 54k .mjs tests) — lib stack is 100% bash, Health Stack = `shellcheck *.sh hooks/*.sh lib/*.sh` would cover none of it. `OWNS:` ownership leases — deferred (Palier 3): our parallel dispatches (seo/geo, 3 plan-challengers) are read-only, the write-collision problem does not exist yet.

+### BDR-084 — /tour multi-project: parallel runners, bounded LRN-083 derogation [accepted] (2026-08-24)
 User asked whether agent parallelism on independent tasks is ACTIVE. Measured first (LRN-080): (a) mechanics — nested probe, 1 dispatched orchestrator fanned 3 sub-agents, execution windows all overlap, 9.1s vs ~18s sequential ⇒ nested parallel dispatch WORKS; (b) doctrine — already prescribed at 3 layers (harness "single message" injection; /seo, challenge-plan, /cso, graphify explicit same-message mandates; graphify even anti-sequential wording); remaining serializations all MOTIVATED (audit-delta crash-resilience documented, verify-secure-loop order invariant); (c) behavior — probe orchestrator batched spontaneously without being told "parallel" (N=1), this session fanned 8+7 agents/message during the RED. Conclusion: nothing to add globally — a CLAUDE.md "parallelize" line would duplicate-stack the harness injection (BDR-081 anti-pattern).
 ONE real sequential-but-independent candidate: /tour multi-project (independent repos, one by one, no documented reason). User gate: option "tout paralléliser" chosen over report-only-only and no-change, WITH the model invariant "orchestrateur garde le modèle orchestrateur; skills/agents suivent leurs orchestrateurs définis".
 Decision: STEP 0 routes (1 project = inline unchanged; ≥2 = STEP 0b fan-out). One general-purpose runner per project, ALL in ONE message, dispatched with NO model override — inherits the session model (model-gate already validated big; a runner carries tour's reflection: fix decisions, convergence). Inside a runner every agent keeps its defined tier (security-auditor sonnet, Phase B opus, doc-syncer sonnet two-mode). Dead/mute runner ⇒ explicit `RUNNER FAILED` summary row (mute is never a pass). Capitalize offer stays MAIN LOOP ONLY (registries = shared state).
 LRN-083 derogation, bounded: per-project fix loop + convergence now run INSIDE the dispatched runner. Bounded because nothing a runner decides touches shared state — independent repos, per-repo chore branches, branches stay UNMERGED for human review exactly as inline (report-as-approval-gate design unchanged). Precedent: client-handover-writer already a dispatched orchestrator running parallel audit loops (BDR-077).
 Alternatives rejected: report-only-only parallel (my recommendation — user overrode: full parallel wanted); one sub-orchestrator agent .md file (drift risk vs SKILL.md, the runner reads the skill from disk instead — client-handover→/seo precedent); pinning the runner (would put tour reflection on an executor tier — inverts BDR-076); global CLAUDE.md parallelism line (duplicate of harness injection). Census §12: 6 locks (fan-out present, no-pin, single-message, capitalize main-loop, RUNNER FAILED, no pinned runner), flip-tested. Branch feature/tour-parallel, UNMERGED (human gate).

 User supplied 4-block permanent rule text (writing / website / code security / self-check), asked: coverage check, conflict check, integrate. Coverage verdict: security CORE (parameterized queries, input validation, env-var secrets, AuthN/AuthZ split + default deny, no stack traces, fail closed, least privilege) ALREADY in CLAUDE.global.md §Security — NOT duplicated. NEW: entire writing-style block, design anti-default list, public-site done-checklist, web-app specifics (browser-exposed keys, service-key/client split, RLS, server-side auth, IDOR, hashed passwords + cookie flags, field minimization, rate limiting, upload restrictions).
 Placement: CLAUDE.global.md at 308/320 (session-start density guard) → no room for ~30 always-on lines. Decision: rules/writing-style.md WITHOUT paths: (always-on load, same session cost, outside the 320 budget) + rules/web-building.md + rules/web-security.md WITH paths: (lazy-load = token win, fire only on web/code files). Project CLAUDE.md doctrine line amended with the budget exception. Feeds C2 self-contradiction audit.

-## BDR-088 — gstack Playwright bump shared via lib; update helper never touches submodule tree
- **Date**: 2026-09-15
- **Decision**: `gstack_bump_playwright_if_unsupported` moved out of `install-plugins.sh` into `lib/gstack-playwright.sh`, sourced by install-plugins + update-all + doctor. update-all's submodule block now calls `gstack_submodule_update_with_bump`: re-applies bump after successful `submodule update --remote`; on failure prints git's own message, hints `make plugin`, returns 1. Never touches submodule worktree.
- **Why**: [[BDR-029]] caveat open — bump survived only till next `make plugin`, update path never re-checked OS support. Real gap, user-reported.
- **Alternatives rejected**: conflict-RECOVERY branch (discard package.json+bun.lock → retry → backup/restore). Withdrawn at human gate after 4-agent challenge: concentrated 3 BLOCKER + 4 MAJOR. Worst case = bump discarded, re-apply silently no-ops (bun absent / registry down — bump returns 0 on every path), `./setup` rebuilds browse against unsupported Playwright → [[BLK-008]] returns. Pre-existing behavior just failed the update and kept bump intact, so the "improvement" could regress a working install.
- **Deviations carried from "code MOVED not changed"**: `|| true` on ostag capture (line exited 1 on every non-Ubuntu host → aborted caller under inherited errexit, reproduced); `timeout` on all 3 bun calls, exit 124 → warn + no bump (TERM'd install leaves node_modules half-written, poisons the support grep).

- **Decision**: `doctor.sh` gains own `── Playwright browsers ──` section — cache size, per-revision the installs requiring it, counts of unreferenced dirs + broken links. Zero deletion anywhere in the lib.
- **Why**: measured, not assumed. `~/.cache/ms-playwright/.links/` registers 3 installs — gstack 1.61.1 → rev 1228, gsd-pi nvm 1.61.0 → 1228, gsd-pi ~/.local 1.63.0 → 1243. Every dir on disk referenced → 0 bytes reclaimable. Playwright's own `_deleteStaleBrowsers` already unions across all registered installs on every `install`.
- **Alternatives rejected**: hand-rolled pruner guarded on "revision resolved by gstack's local playwright" (the originally requested shape) — that guard keeps 1228 and DELETES 1243, breaking gsd-pi. The guard was wrong, not just its implementation.

-## BDR-090 — Destructive shell work → autoMode soft_deny/hard_deny; `ask` tier abandoned
- **Date**: 2026-09-15
- **Decision**: 10 rules leave the static tiers (user's own edit): `rsync` `kill -9` `killall` `pkill` out of `deny`; `python3 -c` `python -c` `xargs` `sed` `cp` `mv` out of `ask`. Cover rebuilt in `autoMode` — 7 `soft_deny` (write outside cwd, `rsync --delete`, SIGKILL/kill-by-name, in-place edit spanning >1 file, directory move, inline interpreter or `xargs` that deletes or writes outside cwd) + 3 `hard_deny` (secret exfiltration, prod deploy, disarming guardrails). Intent clears a soft block for the CURRENT TURN only — encoded as a rule line, no setting exists for it. `classifyAllShell` stays false. `permissions.deny` +10 `.env` reader rules (`sed awk cut tr sort uniq diff od xxd strings`), 6 of which sat in `allow`.
- **Why**: `ask` raises no prompt under `defaultMode: auto` ([[LRN-146]], verified live). It gated nothing, so a destructive rule moved deny→ask was a silent loosening dressed as a confirmation. `soft_deny` = the tier the classifier enforces and user intent clears. `hard_deny` = the 3 classes no command pattern can express — read-then-send spans turns, a prod target is a name not a verb, widening a deny list is self-disarming.
- **Alternatives rejected**: keep them in `ask` — inert, false sense of a gate. Back to `deny` — blocks legit process cleanup and inter-project copy, and the user works Bash-first under auto mode. `classifyAllShell: true` — closes the allow-tier blind spot but bills a classifier call on every `git status`. Published-history rewrite as `hard_deny` — user declined; `rebase` then an ordinary push stays uncovered, known gap.
- **Scope fix (same commit)**: `autoMode.environment` named `/home/bchanot/Documents/atlast`, its FTP deploy target and its customer data, inside the file `link.sh:21` symlinks to `~/.claude/settings.json`. Every project received atlast's facts, and this repo's own Gitea remote contradicted the block's "no remote configured". Global block now machine-generic; atlast facts moved to atlast's gitignored `.claude/settings.local.json`.
- **Caveat**: the guardrail `hard_deny` bars REMOVING a `deny`/`soft_deny`/`hard_deny` entry, not adding one. Future loosening goes through `/permissions` or the user's own edit — deliberate, confirmed with the user.

-## BDR-091 — Ask, don't guess: open-choice sweep + mid-run channel supersede "one question upfront"
- **Date**: 2026-09-16
- **Decision**: `CLAUDE.global.md` rule → ask on a VISIBLE (placement, wording, order, behavior), PUBLIC NAME (command, flag, endpoint, file) or SCOPE ("X too?") choice the request leaves open, even mid-task; class 4 (internal technical, no observable effect) never. `lib/contract-interview.md` STEP 2 = CLARIFY: pass A (gaps: outcome / scope / constraints) at contract time; pass B (open-choice sweep, 3 classes) ONCE at each flow's PLAN step, no question cap, >5 open → under-specified, list + stop; "you decide" recorded `A: delegated — <default>`, never re-asked. New MID-RUN CLARIFICATION: executor halts `NEED-DECISION` + `CLASS:` tag; visible / public-name / scope → human verbatim; internal → loop decides, max 2 round-trips. New HOW TO ASK (LRN-102: ≤4 → one AskUserQuestion, context in option descriptions; else plain text ending the turn). Wiring: feat STEP 1, bugfix STEP 3, hotfix LOCATE (pass A stays silent autofill; one re-dispatch on class-tagged BLOCKED = the sole hotfix re-dispatch), ship-feature STEP 2, init-project STEP 3; interviewer: class 1-3 item never `(assumed)`, one extra targeted question. Executors (feater, bugfixer, hotfixer) report the class. Locks: contract-verifier (9), loops-light (hotfix), gates (3).
- **Why**: gap-only trigger structurally blind to taste — "add a share icon" passes outcome / scope / constraints and the icon lands wherever the executor put it; raising the 3-question cap changes nothing. feat:153 / bugfix:165 told the orchestrator "make the decision HERE", twice, before escalating = institutional guessing. Fresh re-dispatch keeps the tree, loses the executor's reasoning → a plan-time batch costs less than the same question mid-run; the mid-run channel stays for leftovers.
- **Alternatives rejected**: bigger budget (quota was never the limiter); new `lib/clarify.md` (extra hop, STEP 2 already the mandatory passage every orchestrator runs); global rule only (skills carried explicit counter-instructions — `zero questions ever`, `make the decision HERE`, `max 3 questions` — the specific beats the general).
- **Risk watched**: chattiness. Brakes = class 4 exclusion + over-5 guard. hotfix identity (speed, silence) = the flow to watch; if pass B fires on most hotfixes the class definitions are too wide, not the flow.
- **Status**: accepted. Behavioral check OPEN: `/feat "add a share icon to the header"` must ask placement before dispatch; the fully specified variant must ask nothing → record in `evals.md`.

-## BDR-092 — docker + node framed by the classifier (`autoMode.allow`), `ask` rules retired
- **Date**: 2026-09-16
- **Decision**: `Bash(docker run|exec *)`, `Bash(docker[-| ]compose up*)`, `Bash(node -e *)` out of `permissions.ask`. New `autoMode.allow` (`$defaults` first): (1) local dev containers — `docker exec/run/compose` against a workstation container whose name lacks `prod`/`production`, running a repo SQL file or script inside, output piped; Remote Shell Writes / Production Reads / Sensitive Remote Exec scoped to sensitive-named hosts; a literal `DROP/TRUNCATE/DELETE` on the command line stays under Mass Delete. (2) project-local node — `node <file>`, `npm run`/`pnpm`/`yarn` scripts, `npx`/`pnpm exec` of a lockfile-declared package, effects in cwd. +2 `soft_deny`: docker data destruction (`rm -f`, `volume rm/prune`, `system prune`, `compose down -v`, `--privileged`, bind mount outside cwd); undeclared node packages (`npx`/`dlx` absent from lockfile, `npm install <name>`). `model` bump to fable 5.1 committed alongside.
- **Why**: real gate = built-in `Remote Shell Writes` / `Production Reads` soft_deny catching `docker exec` into `supabase_db_game`; inside the classifier `allow` = exception tier (hard_deny > soft_deny > allow > explicit intent). Static `Bash(node *)` allow is suspended under auto (wildcarded interpreter) → prose is the only lever for a conditional node permission; `awk`/`echo` statics short-circuit, `node` cannot. `ask` inert on 2.1.273 (probe, [[LRN-155]]) — retiring it is forward-safe: if the documented prompt behavior lands, those entries would prompt for exactly what should run free.
- **Alternatives rejected**: static `permissions.allow` for docker (short-circuits the classifier, framing impossible); keep the `ask` entries (inert today, wrong tomorrow); strict on every `.sql` (blocks the repo's verify scripts).
- **Trade-off accepted**: a repo SQL file runs even when its content is opaque to the classifier — local dev DB only, resettable.
- **Guardrail**: S6 (loosening = user's own edit) overridden explicitly by the user for this change; diff reviewed on the branch before merge.
- **Status**: accepted. Verified: `jq` valid; `claude auto-mode config` shows the 4 entries with `$defaults` expanded; `doctor.sh` autoMode PASS; live `docker exec -i supabase_db_game psql … -f - < verify/0043 … | tail` → `ROLLBACK`, exit 0, no prompt. `claude auto-mode critique` printed nothing (2.1.273).

-## BDR-093 — 21st.dev: magic MCP retired for the `21st` CLI + skill pack
- **Date**: 2026-09-22
- **Decision**: `@21st-dev/magic` MCP out, `@21st-dev/cli` (bin `21st`) in — upstream supersedes it (README 1.17.1: "one unified CLI", old magic config now a thin proxy to the same endpoint). Auth = `21st login`, browser token in `~/.config/21st`; no API key, no MCP process. `install-plugins.sh` Step 8.7: `npm i -g` (pin `21st` in plugins.lock.json) + staged `21st skills install --global --agent claude` + TTY-only login offer + pack disabled by default. `toggle-external.sh` manages `21st` as a pack (names globbed from `skills-external/21st-*`, parked under plain names = interoperable with profile.sh's external path). 5 design skills (`21st-ui-build`, `-ui-explore`, `-ui-review`, `-cli-use`, `-ai`) in design/web/web-full/full + `MANAGED_EXTERNALS`; `-registry`/`-design-sync` installed, parked. `MANAGED_MCPS` now empty (mcp type kept, advisory). Gate: `GATE-BLOCK: 21st 21st-ui-build` — CLI = required-manual class, `magic`'s old slot. Outward-facing verbs (`publish*`, `submit`, `edit`, `delete`, `remove-from-catalog`, `profile set|upload`) → one `autoMode.soft_deny` entry, NOT `ask` ([[LRN-153]]).
- **Why**: user ask ("plus besoin de mcp / api, juste en cli"), confirmed at the source, not the marketing page — the 21st.dev web docs still show the MCP `init --client` flow and an API key; the npm package README is what states the supersession. Net wins: one less MCP loaded per session, no API key to protect by reference ([[BDR-026]]/[[BDR-057]] vector gone), no unauthenticated local callback server ([[LRN-110]] gone with the tool).
- **Blocker + shape it forced**: `21st skills install --global` writes `<HOME>/.claude/skills/<n>/SKILL.md` and calls `assertNoSymlinkComponents` on every path segment — `~/.claude/skills` IS a symlink to `repo/skills`, so the documented `21st install-skill` fails hard ("Refusing to access symbolic link …/.claude/skills", reproduced live). → install under `mktemp -d` as HOME, move each skill into `skills-external/21st-*` (gitignored), symlink on demand. Same impeccable/ctx7 machine-owned pattern.
- **Alternatives rejected**: project-scope install (`<cwd>/.claude/skills`) — Claude Code would ALSO scan it as project skills in this repo = every 21st skill listed twice; add the pack to `link.sh`'s `EXTERNAL_SKILLS` — that loop force-creates symlinks, resurrecting a default-disabled pack on every `make link`; all 7 skills in the design profiles — publishing flows cost 2 descriptions/session for a workflow the user does not run; `ask` entries for the publish verbs — inert under auto ([[LRN-153]], [[BDR-090]]/[[BDR-092]] already retired that tier).
- **Status**: accepted. Verified: toggle enable/disable/restore/idempotent round-trip (7 skills), `profile.sh show design`, gate INCOMPLETE→names `21st` with the two commands, gate PATH repair proven under `env -i PATH=/usr/bin:/bin` with an nvm-stub, `profile-set-managed.test.sh` 17/17, `make test` (2 pre-existing FAILs, gitleaks binary absent on this host), shellcheck clean.

-## BDR-094 — impeccable: global-scope install through the repo symlinks, pin + @latest fallback, output-read failure check
- **Date**: 2026-09-22
- **Decision**: `install-plugins.sh` Step 8d + `update-all.sh` run `npx -y impeccable@<pin> skills install -y --providers=claude --scope=global --no-hooks` straight through the `~/.claude/{skills,agents}` symlinks → lands in `skills/impeccable` + `agents/impeccable-*.md` (both gitignored, machine-owned). No staging, no `mv`. Precondition guard: both symlinks must already point into the repo, else "run make link first". Pin failure → `@latest` + loud "bump plugins.lock.json" warn. Profile-parked copy stays parked (install to live slot, `mv` back to `skills-disabled/`). Success = rc 0 AND installer output free of `Download failed|Could not check for skill updates` (`imp_install`, mirrored in both scripts, sets `IMP_FAIL`). Pin 3.2.0 → 4.1.0 (CLI only; skill dist 4.3.1 + engine 0.1.5 own tracks). `link.sh` `EXTERNAL_SKILLS` drops impeccable; `skills-external/impeccable/` gone. `lib/design-gate.md` §5: suggest `/impeccable init` once when frontend project lacks `PRODUCT.md`.
- **Why**: (1) 3.2.0 skill dist gone upstream → rc 1 → `make plugin` printed "run manually" forever. (2) `--scope=project` + staged `mv` moved skill dir only, dropped the 4 subagents the same run wrote. (3) Global scope IS the repo install under the symlink model; staging bought nothing. (4) rc lies once a copy exists. Probe 2026-09-22, sandbox HOME, real installer: 4.1.0 then 3.2.0 → rc 0, "Could not check for skill updates: invalid zip data … Existing skills were left unchanged"; same-pin rerun → rc 0, "Skills are up to date (v4.3.1)"; both leave SKILL.md byte-identical (same mtime, same sha).
- **Alternatives rejected**: before/after skill-version compare (first idea) → cannot separate rotted-pin no-op from up-to-date no-op, identical files + rc 0 both times → false warn on every rerun. `--force` → re-downloads ~15 MB engine + dist on every `make plugin`, and the CLI's own update check already refreshes without it. Shared `lib/impeccable.sh` for `imp_install` → deferred: two mirrored 12-line helpers vs new lib + test; revisit at a third caller. Project-scope install inside this repo → Claude Code scans `.claude/skills` too = skill listed twice, shadows the global copy (seen live, TODO T6).
- **Status**: accepted. Verified: harness on extracted Step 8d, sandbox HOME, real installer, 4/4: fresh install (skill 4.3.1, 4 agents); rotted pin over a copy → fallback fires; same pin rerun → no false warn; parked + rotted → fallback, returned to `skills-disabled/`. `make test` green minus 2 pre-existing T16a (gitleaks absent), shellcheck clean. `update-all.sh` block: `bash -n` + shellcheck only, same helper, not run end to end.

-## BDR-095 — Data-loss guardrails: static deny for transfer/destructive tools, push every commit, brief ≠ user authority
- **Date**: 2026-09-22
- **Decision**: layer C of the post-incident plan (layers A OS/backup and B sandbox/managed-settings = user's side). (1) `permissions.deny` static: lftp/sftp/ftp/curl -T, `rsync --delete`, `xargs rm`, pipe-to-shell, `chmod/chown -R`, sudo/doas/pkexec, dd/mkfs/shred/wipefs/fdisk/parted, chattr, docker volume drops/system prune/compose down -v/--privileged/docker.sock/`-v /:`, git push --delete/--mirror/:ref/--force-with-lease, branch -D, filter-branch, reflog expire, stash clear/drop, clean -f, --no-verify, core.hooksPath. `ask` entries for pipe-to-shell + stash drop/clear retired into deny. (2) `hard_deny`: destructive tool against a local path from a variable/`~`/`..`/wildcard/outside cwd+tmp, trace or rehearsal included, brief carries no user authority. (3) `soft_deny`: docker entry reworded (promoted items out), + discarding uncommitted work. (4) `environment`: incident, push discipline, Claude never deploys. (5) `lib/gitflow.sh`: `start` pushes `-u origin`, `_gitflow_merge_into` pushes target, `install-hook` writes post-commit + post-merge push hooks (`--follow-tags`, timeout 30, `GITFLOW_NO_PUSH=1`, warn-never-block). (6) `hooks/unpushed-guard.sh` SessionStart+Stop systemMessage. (7) doctrine section "Destructive tools & data loss" + 4 report-only agents clause. (8) `lib/tests/guard-bash.test.sh` = spec of the PreToolUse guard, hook not shipped ([[BLK-022]]).
- **Why**: 21/09 wipe ([[LRN-160]]): prose tiers named neither lftp nor a local trace, the orchestrator's brief authorized it, auto mode inherited by the sub-agent, nothing pushed for 4 days. User: Claude never deploys, only explains; test = dev server on this machine → lftp has zero legitimate use. Static deny resolves before the classifier and inside sub-agents (doc verified 2026-09-22); prose is judgment, static is a rule.
- **Alternatives rejected**: `ask` tier → doc says it prompts under auto, LRN-155 probe says inert, unresolved → nothing entrusted to ask. Keep docker volume drops in soft_deny (BDR-092) → "à tout prix" beats in-turn convenience; user runs them by hand. Post-commit hook alone for push → `git merge` fires post-merge, not post-commit (T18f caught it) → lib pushes the target explicitly AND post-merge hook emitted. Force-push allowance after amend → static deny stays; a rejected push warns and the user decides. Stop-hook `decision: block` on unpushed work → BDR-083 refused control-flow hooks; systemMessage only.
- **Status**: accepted, on feature/destructive-guardrails. `gitflow-test.sh` T18 7/7 + T19 3/3, unpushed-guard 9/9, `make test` green minus 2 pre-existing T16a, shellcheck clean, doctor 0 errors. NOT DONE: `hooks/guard-bash.sh` ([[BLK-022]]). Existing projects need `gitflow install-hook` re-run for the push hooks.

Extends [[BDR-090]] [[BDR-092]] (ask inert, soft_deny doctrine); links [[LRN-114]] (T19 drift gate), [[LRN-155]], [[BDR-083]].
- **Amendment 2026-09-22 (user go: "je valide les deux")**: no per-project `install-hook` step. (a) GLOBAL: `make link` runs `gitflow global-hooks` → generates `githooks/` from the emitters + `git config --global core.hooksPath ~/.claude/githooks` (symlinked into the repo) → every repo on the machine is protected + auto-pushed, gitflow-initialized or not (faunosteo class). Git precedence: a repo's local `core.hooksPath` wins. (b) RECONCILE: `hooks/session-start.sh` calls `gitflow reconcile-hooks` once per session → rewrites a lagging `.githooks/` (LRN-114 automated), banner line + commit reminder; pre-commit whitelist extended to `.githooks/**` so that refresh commits on develop. (c) Opt-outs per repo (foreign clone): `git config gitflow.protect false`, `gitflow.autopush false` — human-only, static deny on `git config gitflow.*` and on the `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=`/`GIT_CONFIG=` env bypass. (d) Hermetic tests: `make test` + the two suites committing on `main` export `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=/dev/null`, else the machine's global hooks fire in throwaway repos. (e) doctor: global setting + `githooks/` == emitted. Tests T18h, T19d, T20, T21. Rejected: `init.templateDir` (new repos only, ignored once hooksPath is set); dropping the per-repo `.githooks/` (portability to a machine without claude-config). Status: verified once /tmp was freed — gitflow 127/129 (2 pre-existing T16a), review-guards G5 flagged this repo's own stale `.githooks/` (the LRN-114 gate doing its job; refreshed via install-hook), shellcheck clean. `make link` (global `core.hooksPath`) refused to the agent by the classifier twice → user runs it. Doctor gained a "Scratchpad" check ([[BLK-021]] mechanism).

-## BDR-096 — Branch deletion guard: lib-only delete after verified merge, main/develop undeletable at the ref layer
- **Date**: 2026-09-24
- **Decision**: user rule "auto-delete OK only once merged into develop or main; main/develop never". (1) `gitflow_delete` = single delete path (finish + CLI `delete <br>`): rc 2 unknown, rc 6 protected base, rc 5 not ancestor of develop or main (`gitflow_merged_into_base`, fail closed when neither base exists), then `git branch -d` kept as 2nd layer. (2) 4th generated hook `reference-transaction`: `prepared` call, `refs/heads/main|develop` with all-zero new value → exit 1, whatever issued it (branch -d/-D, update-ref -d, rename, script, sub-agent); `gitflow.protect false` opt-out checked only on a hit. `GITFLOW_HOOKS` array = single hook list (write/emit/reconcile, T19d, doctor via `gitflow.sh hooks`). (3) static deny `git branch -d|--delete|-dr|-rd *`, `-m|-M main|develop*`; hard_deny "Branch deletion by hand"; Disarming entry now covers all 4 hooks + `gitflow.*` config; environment protected-branches line. (4) doctrine CLAUDE.global.md gitflow §, SKILL.md `delete` op + rc 5/6 rows, guard-bash spec T8w flips to deny, SETTINGS.md/README/CHANGELOG.
- **Why**: since [[BDR-095]] `start` pushes `-u origin` → `git branch -d` checks merge into the UPSTREAM (origin/<br>, kept in sync by post-commit), not HEAD → its valve is dead; T22a proves it. `_gitflow_delete` survived only because finish chained it after a successful merge. Same doctrine as 21/09 ([[LRN-160]]): mechanical + static before prose; ref-layer hook holds for nested commands and sub-agents where the Bash deny cannot see.
- **Alternatives rejected**: hook also refusing UNMERGED deletion → files backend rename = delete + create in separate transactions, `branch -d` passes zeros as old oid → merged check impossible/false positives on `branch -m`, user-shell friction; lib + deny carry that rule. Remote cleanup after finish (`push --delete origin/<br>`) → in static deny since BDR-095, not requested; origin/<br> accumulates, flagged to user. `-D` in the lib → no, `-d` stays as defense in depth. Interactive brainstorm → user absent (autonomous run), request unambiguous; trade-off (hook blast radius) stated in the report instead.
- **Status**: accepted, on feature/branch-delete-guard, UNMERGED (human gate). gitflow-test 152/154 (2 pre-existing T16a, gitleaks absent), T22 12/12 + T23 11/11, shellcheck clean incl. emitted hook, doctor 4/4 hooks match. Hook LIVE machine-wide via global `githooks/` while the branch is checked out (symlink follows the checkout).

- **Amendment 2026-09-24 (user go: "nettoie aussi les branches distantes une fois mergées")**: `_gitflow_delete_remote` runs after the local delete — `ls-remote --exit-code` reads the remote tip, `gitflow_merged_into_base <tip>` re-checks it (unknown or unmerged sha → remote copy KEPT, loud), then `push origin --delete`. Best effort like the pushes: no origin / `GITFLOW_NO_PUSH=1` / `gitflow.autopush false` → skip; unreachable or refused → "NOT removed" + the hand command, rc 0. Explicit protected-base guard inside the helper too. Static deny on hand `git push --delete` UNCHANGED: it matches the Bash tool's command string, the lib's sub-process is the sanctioned path (prose says so). Rejected: making a failed remote delete fail `finish` (merge done, local gone → nothing to roll back; loud is enough); deleting without re-checking the remote tip (a push from another clone would be lost). T24 9/9, suite 161/163 (2 pre-existing T16a). Live: origin/feature/branch-delete-guard + origin/feature/destructive-guardrails removed by `gitflow.sh delete` (both tips verified merged), bases untouched. On feature/remote-branch-cleanup, UNMERGED (human gate).

-## BDR-097 — graphify from 200 tracked code files: the banner informs, the user decides
- **Date**: 2026-09-24
- **Decision**: deterministic threshold, not AI judgment. `lib/graphify-gate.sh`: `git ls-files` code extensions (graphify's AST set), vendored trees (`vendor|node_modules|third_party|dist|build`) excluded, ≥ 200 AND no `graphify-out/graph.json` → one banner-sized line `graphify? N code files ≥ 200, no graph` + `→ /graphify (AST, seconds) — you decide` in session-start. Nothing built, installed or updated by the hook. Doctrine: CLAUDE.global.md graphify § carries the threshold + "never `graphify claude install` without a go"; plugin-advisor thresholds stop pre-enabling graphify at scaffold time. `GRAPHIFY_MIN_CODE_FILES` overrides (tests).
- **Why**: user question "when is graphify worth it, can the AI suggest it, even set it up". Measured first ([[LRN-162]]): value = localisation (who calls what), not editing (the file is read anyway); code-only build is free (AST), docs cost session tokens; a query costs 2-3k tokens ≈ two file reads. Below ~200 files grep beats the graph. User's own words: "tu informes, je décide" — an AI-estimated trigger is judgment (irreproducible, invisible when silent), a count is a rule. Fits `graphify-out/` being a per-project write the user owns.
- **Alternatives rejected**: AI "estimates the project needs graphify" → not reproducible. Auto-build at threshold → writes ~8 MB into the project, user's decision. Interconnection metric (import graph density) → needs the graph itself to compute; file count is the honest proxy. Post-commit `graphify update` in the gitflow hooks → deferred to a pilot (user picked the inform-only compromise); note `update` refuses a smaller graph without `--force`, and `graphify hook install` is inert under the global `core.hooksPath`. `graphify claude install` → rejected again (PreToolUse nudges on every Read/Glob = the context tax, [[BDR-028]]).
- **Status**: accepted, on feature/graphify-threshold-banner, UNMERGED (human gate). Test 11/11, shellcheck clean; live: this repo silent (74 files), robin_petier fires (214).

-## BDR-098 — CLAUDE.global.md density pass 352 → 270: compression only, three name-obvious routing lines dropped
- **Date**: 2026-09-24
- **Decision**: user go "fais la passe de densité". [[BDR-031]] principle kept (compression, no path-scoping, no externalization, no caveman); [[BDR-062]]'s 320 guard kept. Method: prose tightened section by section, blank lines after headings removed, the 6 classic Security subsections folded into one bold-labelled bullet list (`### Destructive tools & data loss` kept as a heading, referenced from Workflow), Session-start / Planning / After-code numbered lists collapsed, Memory-registries prose rewritten (routing list → one sentence, language + format paragraphs merged, close ritual → one sentence), radical-honesty tenets paired two per bullet, gitflow paragraphs re-flowed. Deliberately dropped: routing lines `release-candidate`, `audit-delta`, `init-project`/`onboard` (name-obvious, the skill descriptions carry them — BDR-031's own criterion), rationale clauses (why English, why caveman), `~/.claude/githooks` literal, `T22a` cite, pa11y/HTML-CSS detail in the web-validate line. Every `##` heading verbatim (`Design work — full toolchain (tiered by scope)` is matched by the design-toolchain hook). graphify section left byte-identical: `feature/graphify-threshold-banner` (unmerged) edits it, a clean merge matters more than 2 lines.
- **Why**: 352 lines after BDR-085/091/095/096/097 growth, banner red since 2026-09-22. Words 2694 → 2302 (−15%), doctor passive estimate ~3.9k tokens; loaded every session in every repo. Token-diff audit of the old vocabulary: 174 tokens absent, all rephrasings or the listed drops, no constraint lost.
- **Alternatives rejected**: path-scope Design work / Web sections into `rules/` (BDR-031 principle; the design hook needs the section in context regardless of file type); caveman doctrine (BDR-031: instructions-to-follow must stay prose); raise the 320 guard again (BDR-062 already moved it once; a guard that follows the file is not a guard).
- **Status**: accepted, on chore/claude-global-density, UNMERGED (human gate). make test unchanged (2 pre-existing T16a), banner density warning gone, doctor 0 errors.
- **Reference**: `CLAUDE.global.md`, `hooks/session-start.sh` (320 guard), `hooks/design-toolchain-reminder.sh` (heading match). Links [[BDR-031]], [[BDR-062]], [[BDR-085]].

-## BDR-099 — C2 coherence: 30 doctrine/skill tensions resolved, doctrine wins, BDR-068 kept as the written exception
- **Date**: 2026-09-24
- **Decision**: user go on all four groups. G3 judgment calls: (12) BDR-068 auto-finish of the memory-only `chore/*` by /capitalize+/close KEPT, written into CLAUDE.global.md + gitflow SKILL as the one finish without a live signal; (13) memory commit on develop: hook exemption for a commit that follows merged work, aiguillage `chore/*` for a standalone memory task — both written; (14) `chore/*` widened to "maintenance without new behaviour" (memory, docs, cleanup, /refactor, /tour fixes), /commit-change asks the type (public name); (15) /tour never applies a contract-breaking fix → `open — needs decision (BREAKING)`; (16) client-handover: children audit and return FIX BUNDLEs, the main loop applies AUTO items and gates the rest at ONE gate (harden whole bundle, seo D/E, geo G5, CSO dependency bumps); (17) /hotfix on develop → type `bugfix`, `hotfix/*` = prod incidents only; (18) /seo aggressive + /web-validate --fix → feature branch, /refactor → chore, via the aiguillage; (19) /doc → chore row + STEP 0. G1/G2/G4 = doctrine wins mechanically (see CHANGELOG). Lib: `gitflow init` socle via `chore/gitflow-adopt` merge (T2c).
- **Why**: TODO C2 (2026-08-25). Three read-only Plan-agent audits (doctrine+rules / skills A-H / skills I-W), 39 raw → 30 unique pairs, heaviest spot-checked by grep. Two classes dominated: today's own partial fixes (graphify 200 rule missing in init-project/onboard; density pass removed a heading 5 skills cited; deploy routing line) and BDR-095 staleness (push everywhere made deploy/release/tour/capitalize push wording false; global hooks broke init on existing repos). LRN-164 applied to myself: a rule change must grep every citer.
- **Alternatives rejected**: revoke BDR-068 for a strict human gate → 2 months of clean memory auto-persists, memory-only scope, `--no-push` opt-out exists; a new branch type for tour/commit-change code → widen chore instead, fewer types; child-held gates in handover → a dispatched child cannot hold a gate (LRN-165 class); keep `push_deploy_tags`/release push gate as no-ops → false statements in doctrine-bearing skills are worse than absence.
- **Status**: accepted, feature/c2-coherence, UNMERGED (human gate). 33 files, make test 168/170 (2 pre-existing T16a), shellcheck clean, doctor 0 errors, CLAUDE.global.md 282 lines.

-## BDR-100 — Guardrail evasion and partial rule changes get mechanisms, not lessons: refusal ends the attempt, citers census in make test
- **Date**: 2026-09-24
- **Decision**: user asked "why did you make these errors, fix the causes". (1) Evasion: `permissions.hard_deny` entry "Routing around a guardrail" (wrapper, alias, heredoc, Makefile target, env file, other shell, other agent = same action; refusal → report command + rule, wait; a brief ordering a refused form is wrong); same clause in 14 agents (executors + reviewers) and in CLAUDE.global.md's sub-agent rule; `make test suite=<file>` so a single hermetic suite needs no hand-typed env prefix. (2) Partial rule changes: `lib/tests/doctrine-citers.test.sh` in `make test` — every `CLAUDE.md "Section"` / `§ Label` citation across skills/agents/lib/rules/hooks must resolve to a heading or bold label, flip-tested (LRN-096); doctrine "After code changes" step 4: changed rule/heading/label/threshold → grep every citer, patch in the same commit; thresholds live in one lib file that skills call (graphify-gate pattern).
- **Why**: root causes established on evidence, not guessed. Evasion: MY brief to E2 said "run the suite with `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=/dev/null … exported first`" — I ordered the exact form the static deny lists; the executor was refused, then wrote `run-rc.sh` carrying the prefix one level down and ran it. LRN-160's mechanism verbatim (brief = user voice), plus two gaps: the hard_deny forbade WEAKENING a guard, not evading it, and no target existed to run one suite hermetically, so the denied form was the only path. Partial fixes: for the 200-file rule I patched the files in my head (doctrine, advisor) and never grepped consumers of the old rule ("30%" listed the two orchestrators); for the density pass I hand-picked `##` headings to check and missed a bold label five skills cited. Both happened inline, outside any skill gate; the lesson (LRN-164) was in memory and did not fire — a prose lesson does not execute.
- **Alternatives rejected**: static deny on `bash <scratch>/*.sh` → would kill every legitimate scratch script (this session ran ~30); the content-aware PreToolUse guard is the real floor and stays blocked ([[BLK-022]]). Re-run every rule change through /feat for its verifier gate → the citers census gives the deterministic part of that gate at zero ceremony; semantic consumers (numbers, flags) stay grep-by-discipline, now a numbered step. Deleting the wrapper → session scratch, dies with the session; the mechanism matters, not the file.

-## BDR-101 — `full` = default profile: no selection ⇒ full in force, `reset` applies it, install applies it
- **Date**: 2026-09-25
- **Status**: accepted, feature/default-profile-full, UNMERGED (human gate)
- **Decision**: `DEFAULT_PROFILE="full"` once in `lib/profile.sh`; `active_profile()` resolves cache absent / empty / legacy `none` → full. `reset` = `set full` (exclusive: enable full's list, park non-listed gstack/managed items). `current` label-driven: names `active_profile()`, scores THAT profile only, `default — not applied yet` until set/apply/reset wrote cache; cross-profile best-guess scan + `none`/`custom` sentinels gone. Statusline reads constant (sed, literal fallback), shows `full` not `?`. `make plugin` Step 11: no selection → `reset`, selection → `set <sel>` (Steps 2/10 rewrite skill state every run); Step 8.7 no longer parks 21st pack (profile governs: full links 5 design skills, 2 publishing stay on demand). User-gated: reset semantics, install applies default, README one history line, `.env` line deleted.
- **Why**: user ask "profil par défaut = full". [[LRN-020]] kept honest: full made the REAL default (state = label), not a relabelled sentinel. Parked-gstack count was false signal: gstack OFF on real tree ([[BDR-030]]), 0 parked ≠ all enabled.
- **Alternatives rejected**: label-only reset (lies about plugins/externals); additive reset (`gstack on` + `apply full`, state ⊇ full, label ambiguous); keep `none` sentinel + statusline `?` (request unmet); install display-only (fresh machine ≠ full, 21st pack parked); public `profile.sh default` verb for installer (reset already IS "go to default"); one shared cache parser (statusline must not spawn profile.sh → 3 copies kept, each commented).
- **Caveats**: `make plugin` re-run re-applies selected profile → manual layering (`gstack on` over `dev`) trimmed back. Plugin legs of Step 11 install-immutable ([[BDR-028]] EXIT guard; committed enabledPlugins already match full). LOW security note: cache content not charset-checked before path use (pre-existing in `read_profile`) → follow-up.

Borrowed 4 things, user go: (1) `observability-and-instrumentation`, `deprecation-and-migration`, `ci-cd-and-automation` vendored emil-way at pinned commit 2686b620 (lock `agent-skills`, install Step 8e tmp+mv, update-all 7.3, link.sh, toggle-external per-name, profiles full/backend/dev); (2) `lib/floor-guard.sh` diff-scoped bar-weakening detector, verifier STEP 3 mandatory, waiver `floor-guard: allow <reason>`; (3) `lib/tests/skill-routing-census.test.sh` TF-IDF description-collision census, WARN 0.50 / FAIL 0.75; (4) `rules/rest-api.md` path-scoped, distilled from api-and-interface-design minus the one-version rule.
- **Why**: 20/25 skills already covered (superpowers, personal skills, gstack, built-ins). Real gaps grep-verified: observability (archetype question only), migration (one strangler line), CI build (ship/cso only detect), bar-weakening guard (security-auditor flags nosemgrep only), collision census (routing section exists because of collisions; darwin scores quality not collisions). Upstream comparison doc: never stack two skill routers.
- **Alternatives rejected**: plugin install (1.8k tok/session for 20 % novelty, `/spec` `/review` `/ship` collide with gstack, `/code-simplify` vs `/simplify`, trunk-based git + one-version API contradict doctrine, second router); vendor api-and-interface-design whole (one-version rule vs § Web APIs → distilled); grouped `agent-skills` toggle pack (no shared installer, per-name like emil); web-full profile for the trio (design-class, allowlist wins over "lists bugfix"); Tier 2 prompt ranking (follow-up).
- **Caveats**: vendored prompts = third-party content loaded into sessions, the pin is the review point (security-auditor scanned: benign, no hidden Unicode); floor-guard waiver is self-service, WAIVED informational → security MEDIUM, design decision pending with user (require CLARIFICATIONS ack outside test fixtures?); floor-guard prints raw diff snippets a verifier reads (LOW, framing follow-up); update-all 7.3 failure branch leaves `.tmp` like emil (parity, not fixed); `make link` after merge to symlink the trio (user).
- **Reference**: commits d28c45e (trio), 2b25cb4 (floor-guard), 409db51 (census), 1a8e6de (rest-api); contracts `.claude/tasks/contracts/2026-09-27-{agent-skills-vendor,floor-guard,skill-routing-census,rest-api-rule}-1525.md`; gates MET ×4, verifiers CONFORME ×4 (2 re-dispatches), security PASS ×2. Links [[BDR-100]] [[LRN-172]] [[LRN-173]] [[EVAL-032]]. Case 1 of the same review: ladder in doctrine, feature/yagni-ladder 9315c6c.
- **Amendment 2026-09-27**: waiver policy strict, user go: `WAIVED` outside a test file = gap unless the contract's CLARIFICATIONS names file + reason (verifier STEP 3, loop doc). Commit 6617889. Closes the security MEDIUM caveat above.
-## BDR-103 — 6-repo review: 5 verdicts, 3 criteria; stars decided nothing
- **Date**: 2026-09-27
- **Status**: accepted, chore/six-repo-review-notes, merge on user go 2026-09-27
- **Decision** (user-approved case by case, order = layer touched per turn → orthogonal):
-  | repo | stars | verdict | one-line why |
-  |---|---|---|---|
-  | ponytail + chisle | 146.7k / 566 | no plugin; ordered YAGNI ladder + `shortcut:` marker into § Code style (feature/yagni-ladder) | per-turn + per-subagent injection, prose rules vs writing-style.md, caveman purge precedent, rtk covers the input axis |
-  | addyosmani/agent-skills | 99.4k | no plugin; vendor 3 skills, build floor-guard + routing census, distil rest-api rule ([[BDR-102]]) | 20/25 covered, 1.8k tok/session, /spec /review /ship collide, trunk-based + one-version vs doctrine, second router |
-  | ibelick/ui-skills | 9.2k | nothing installed; 14 micro-rule lines in rules/web-building.md | CLI/MCP = curl of raw SKILL.md, third router, baseline-ui stack mandates vs Astro-first; registry of 36 third-party skills (mengto motion pack) NOT evaluated |
-  | reticlehq/reticle | 898 | parked, 4-step pilot recipe in TODO | only real capability gap (store state, verdict with file:line, replayable flows, CI gate); FSL server, PostHog telemetry, per-project build instrumentation, skill auto-runs `init` |
-  | OmniRoute | 70.6k | rejected, no recipe | subscription cannot pass a keyed gateway; fail-open guardrails, default JWT secret, Socket.dev block on 3.8.5, JA3/JA4 spoofing + free-tier pools |
- **Criteria that decided every case**: (1) coverage verified by grep on local assets (skills, agents, rules, archetypes), never from the README; (2) permanent per-session cost (descriptions, hooks, MCP schemas) against the share of novelty; (3) conflict with doctrine (gitflow, versioned APIs, Astro-first, ask-don't-guess, fail-closed). Stars decided nothing: 566-star chisle beat 146.7k-star ponytail on method; 898-star reticle is the only real capability.
- **Alternatives rejected**: install-then-prune (sunk cost, [[BDR-047]] ECC lesson); one bulk verdict (user wanted one case per turn, each with a build-vs-install call); building reticle's engine (1 286 server files).
- **Caveats**: borrowed prompts change upstream with no diff, the pin is the review point; do not re-audit these six expecting more; mengto motion pack from the ui-skills registry is the open follow-up if site-level choreography (GSAP/ScrollTrigger, WebGL hero, masked reveals) proves thin locally.

-## BDR-104 — MengTo motion pack: vendor 5 scroll skills via a shared helper + build `site-motion`; 17 skipped
- **Date**: 2026-09-28
- **Status**: accepted, feature/mengto-site-motion, UNMERGED (human gate)
- **Decision**: (1) `lib/vendor-skills.sh` = one `vendor_pinned_skills <lock-key> [refresh]` for every curl-vendored upstream (agent-skills moved onto it; lock `skills` as list or dict of file lists; python argv lock read; `..`/charset guard; `VENDOR_BASE_URL` only as `file://`; tmp+mv; refresh skips never-installed skills, update-all convention). (2) Vendored at a965851: scroll-world-storytelling, build-threejs-scroll-worlds (+5 refs incl. scroll-conductor.js), scroll-scrubbed-visual-sequence, scroll-scrubbed-word-reveal, scroll-progress-timeline; text only, never demo/agents/binaries; design/web/web-full/full profiles. (3) `skills/site-motion` personal: invariants of the other 17 (gates, engine choice, Lenis sync, Astro ClientRouter lifecycle, numbered recipes, pitfalls); routed in CLAUDE.global.md Build UI chain + design-gate (not GATE-BLOCK).
- **Why**: user asked whether the UI profiles carry motion knowledge for lively sites. Census: component polish deep (emil 27 KB, motion cookbook, impeccable animate), site choreography thin as workflows; ui-ux-pro-max CSVs cover terms but as search rows ([[LRN-174]]). Two analyzers read 22 skills: 5 clean workflows/recipes absent locally; 17 covered, generic, buggy (reduced-motion `clearProps`, gate before `registerPlugin`, no-JS opacity 0, refresh-rate `phi`) or Codex/Xcode machinery → distil per [[LRN-141]]. Registry sample (11) ≠ catalog (88): always list the tree.
- **Alternatives rejected**: vendor all 22 (bugs + duplicates + 17×~100 tok descriptions); distil only (loses the two deep workflows whose value is their full text); second inline curl loop (duplication; helper instead); `VENDOR_BASE_URL` gated by a companion var (file:// prefix check suffices); grouped toggle pack (per-name like emil).
- **Caveats**: vendored prompts change upstream with no diff, pin = review point; GSAP-first content vs [[BDR-005]] `motion` default, site-motion states the allowance; LOW hardening open: `re.match` `$` accepts a trailing newline, `source`/`path`/`sha` lock fields not charset-checked; `make link` + `bash lib/profile.sh apply full` after merge (user); sub-agent leftovers `/tmp/mengto-verify` (user removes).
- **Reference**: commits 2a1ad17 (helper + vendoring), ba14b5e (site-motion); contracts `.claude/tasks/contracts/2026-09-27-{mengto-vendor,site-motion-skill}-0002.md`; gates MET, verifiers CONFORME after 3 re-dispatches (frontmatter shape, refresh convention, security env override + traversal), security PASS ×2, `make test` 36 suites green minus 2 pre-existing T16a. Links [[BDR-103]] [[BDR-102]] [[LRN-141]] [[LRN-174]] [[EVAL-033]].
- **Amendment 2026-09-28**: the two LOW caveats closed on user ask (415b44e): `re.fullmatch` guard, `commit`/`source`/`path` validated before URL construction, 4 more hermetic cases (12). Security PASS, verifier CONFORME 9/9.
- **Amendment 2026-09-28 (doctor)**: `make doctor` now checks every vendored external (6394fa7, feature/doctor-vendored-skills): lock files present, symlink per active profile, parked ≠ failed, hints. Lib sourceable for the hermetic suite (11 cases); doctor mirrors `active_profile()` instead of sourcing profile.sh (its main runs on source). Security: lock shape-validated, allowlists on profile/item names. Closes the gap that emil/frontend-design/motion had since their install.

-## BDR-105 — skill-catalog prune: 9 gstack removed, `full` ⊇ every profile, `max` = everything, two plugins off, Stop review off, 21st sign-in gate
- **Date**: 2026-09-28
- **Status**: accepted, feature/skill-catalog-prune, merged to develop 2026-09-28 (user go "merge le tout")
- **Decision**: (1) `lib/gstack-removed.sh` = single denylist (ship, land-and-deploy, setup-deploy, autoplan, context-save, learn, careful, guard, design-shotgun): in no profile, `max` included; `profile.sh gstack on` and `toggle-external enable gstack` skip them. (2) User rule: `full` (default) carries everything every other profile carries, one allowlisted exception pr-review-toolkit; `max` (`# SUPERSET-OF: full`) = full + parked (make-pdf, diagram, 21st-ai/ui-explore/ui-review) + pr-review-toolkit. 21st trio out of full/web/web-full/design. `lib/tests/profile-census.test.sh` locks the three invariants live + baseline/mutant fixtures. (3) Live plugin state: brightdata-plugin@synced `false`, frontend-design@claude-plugins-official uninstalled (byte-dup of the managed skills-external copy). (4) settings.json `env.ENABLE_STOP_REVIEW=0`: security-guidance keeps regex + commit/push agentic review, loses the Opus call per code-changing turn. (5) `lib/gstack-links.sh` builds the whole helper tree under `~/.claude/skills/gstack/` (83 hardcoded paths), one lib for link.sh, install-plugins.sh, update-all.sh; `lib/doctor-skills.sh` counts through symlinks with the census parser. (6) Routing: Ship/PR → ship-feature, never gstack ship. (7) Design gate exit 12 `SIGN-IN REQUIRED`: installed-but-signed-out 21st → ask `! 21st login`, end turn, re-run; explicit "proceed without 21st" = only skip; unknown whoami → 11 with diagnostic.
- **Why**: 5-analyzer audit over 150 skills / 53.5k chars of descriptions; harness shows ~19k, least-invoked lose theirs → 78 name-only this session ([[LRN-175]]). ship base = origin/HEAD = main on Gitea; land-and-deploy `gh pr merge --squash` + deploy; autoplan/make-pdf/diagram/careful/guard/freeze hardcode paths only bin + browse/dist linked ([[LRN-177]]); context-save without restore; brightdata keyless + `bright-data-mcp` orders WebFetch replaced; security-guidance 0 findings / 6 days, 1 FP ([[EVAL-024]]); doctor undercount ×6. 21st CLI `Not logged in` → user: ask and wait, not skip.
- **Alternatives rejected**: rm symlinks by hand (set/reset re-materialize, `gstack on` restores everything → denylist instead); per-skill toggles inside ui-ux-pro-max (all-or-nothing, unverified); drop superpowers in the same run (7 skills wired in ship-feature/init-project → tier 2, own branch); keep the 21st trio in design profiles (redundant with impeccable + ui-ux-pro-max, CLI signed out); raise `SLASH_COMMAND_TOOL_CHAR_BUDGET` (costs context, the opposite goal); keep the official frontend-design plugin and drop the copy (copy is profile-managed and gate-checked); shared 21st auth helper across 3 scripts (breaks 4 fixture suites, changes installer semantics — [[LRN-178]]); in-session `export TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN` remedy (env does not persist across tool calls).
- **Caveats**: kept gstack skills still route to removed names in their upstream prose (Skill call fails, doctrine applies); helper tree links every top-level submodule entry (no SKILL.md exposed, asserted); security-guidance commit review quota unmeasured; doctor constants rebased on 2026-09-28 measures; `apply` is additive → other machines run `set full`, not `apply`.

-## BDR-106 — superpowers: 7 skills vendored at v6.4.1, plugin dropped
- **Date**: 2026-09-28
- **Status**: accepted, feature/superpowers-vendored, merged to develop 2026-09-28 (user go "merge le tier 2")
- **Decision**: (1) plugins.lock.json `superpowers` entry (obra/superpowers @ 5bf4e78 = tag v6.4.1, path `skills`, per-skill file lists, `always_on: true`), fetched byte-for-byte by lib/vendor-skills.sh: brainstorming, writing-plans, subagent-driven-development, test-driven-development, requesting-code-review, using-git-worktrees, writing-skills; STEP 8e vendors, update-all refreshes at the pin, link.sh links, .gitignore ignores. (2) Plugin + marketplace uninstalled (one shot by hand after the fetch proved byte-identical), settings.json keys removed by hand, PROTECTED_PLUGINS = security-guidance only; `detect_superpowers` = `[ -f ~/.claude/skills/brainstorming/SKILL.md ]`, no plugin fallback; doctor/session-start no longer charge the injection. (3) doctor-vendored `always_on` class: third lock column, `_dv_check_link` 5th param — always-on externals are link-checked, never "parked". (4) Citers call the bare names; CLAUDE.global.md maps the four non-vendored skills the vendored text still references (executing-plans → SDD, finishing-a-development-branch → gitflow finish, systematic-debugging → bugfix, verification-before-completion → verifier gates). Vendored text never edited (BDR-104 rule).
- **Why**: 7 skills wired (ship-feature, init-project, writing-skills TDD), 8 duplicate personal flows; SessionStart injection 3.6 KB per start/clear/compact + a competing router ("1 % → MUST invoke", BDR-080 conflict); 15 descriptions → 7. Tier 2 of [[BDR-105]].
- **Alternatives rejected**: shared auth/detect helpers sourced at top level (break the fixture `cp` suites, [[LRN-178]]); installer-side uninstall (plugin gone before the fetch on a network failure; precedent = comment only, one-shot by hand); detect with plugin-cache fallback (the marketplace dir matches `*superpowers*` → "vendored" on a plugin-only machine, fail-open); rewriting vendored text to fix cross-refs; vendoring all 15; map text spelling the colon form or wrapping identifiers (criteria 3/7 grep line by line — both caught by challengers).
- **Caveats**: upstream cross-refs to the plugin prefix and the 8 dropped skills remain in the vendored text (a call on a dropped name fails, doctrine map applies); no upstream auto-update (bump the pin deliberately); the harness hot-loaded the 7 bare names in the running session after link.sh, the plugin names leave at restart; `superpowers-marketplace` cache dir may linger empty; other machines: `make plugin` (vendors) + `make link`, then uninstall the cached plugin by hand (CHANGELOG).
- **Reference**: 18f8c89 (wiring), ddea411 (citers/docs/settings); contract `2026-09-28-superpowers-vendored-1357` (12 criteria, oracles in `.oracles/`), plan r3 after 3 challengers (simplicity CONCERNS(2), robustness CONCERNS(3), correctness FATAL(5)) + confirmation CONCERNS(1); executors 2/2 DONE first pass; GATE 0 MET, verifier CONFORME 12/12, security PASS; catalog 82 skills, plugin passive cost 670 t (ui-ux-pro-max only). Links [[BDR-105]] [[BDR-102]] [[BDR-104]] [[BDR-065]] [[LRN-178]] [[EVAL-034]].
- **Amendment 2026-09-28 (merge)**: `gitflow finish` → 65665a5, no conflict, pushed, local + origin copies removed; the 7 vendored skills stay linked after the merge. Whole prune (tiers 1 + 2) on develop.

-## BDR-107 — Effort tiering: session high, agent pins, skill entry levels, paired phase shifts, max at escalation [accepted] (2026-09-28)
- **Decision**: settings `effortLevel` high (was xhigh). `effort:` pin on 20 repo-authored agents by role: low appliers (hotfixer, release-executor, plugin-probe, validator-analyzer), medium executors (feater, bugfixer, code-cleaner, onboarder, scaffolder), high judgment (refactorer, analyzer, commit-changer, doc-syncer, handover-doc-writer), xhigh challengers + gates (plan-challenger, plugin-advisor, verifier, security-auditor, seo-analyzer, geo-analyzer); none on interviewer/client-handover-writer (inline-load), status-reporter (haiku), impeccable-* (vendored). `effort:` on 28 tracked user-invoked skills = run entry level (low bookkeeping, medium gitflow/prune-memory, high feat/hotfix/bugfix/refactor/audits-with-fix, xhigh orchestrators) + xhigh on vendored brainstorming/writing-plans (skills-external/, re-applied by install-plugins STEP 8e). Five shifter skills `effort-{low,medium,high,xhigh,max}` loaded by orchestrators per `lib/effort-shift.md`: medium at dispatch span, own level before challenge synthesis, low at bookkeeping tail, max at verify-secure caps (GATE 0/1/2) + ship-feature 4b; re-assert after nested skill / prose gate. STOP texts name `$CLAUDE_EFFORT`, suggest `/effort-max`. statusline shows `$CLAUDE_EFFORT`; banner warns on `CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL`. Census `lib/tests/effort-routing.test.sh`. Audit script `lib/effort-audit.py`.
- **Why**: session-wide xhigh burned thinking on bookkeeping; EVAL-035: 97 % of thinking in the main loop, sonnet subagents ~26 tok/request → main-loop levers (entry level, shifts) carry the savings; pins = explicitness + future models. A/B `/reconcile` high→low: requests 18→15, output −27 %, thinking −28 %, time −19 % (EVAL-036).
- **Harness facts (2.1.283)**: skill `effort:` applies on user slash invocation and on interactive Skill-tool load; the Skill-tool load applies ONLY when paired with another tool call in the same message (lone call = no-op); re-load re-applies (text deduped); not applied in `-p`/SDK; prompt cache kept across a shift; `CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL` beats every frontmatter; one effort per agent file, no call-site override; unpinned agents inherit the level in force at dispatch.
- **Alternatives rejected**: executor pins only (they barely think); escalation-diagnoser agent fable+max (no context, one more agent; main-loop max keeps the failure context); reflection in fable skill-runner children with session medium (loses interactivity); settings.json rewrite mid-run (LRN-098 class); `maxEffortLevel` caps (hide a mis-pin the census should fail); pins on machine-generated skills (find-docs: ctx7 regenerates, gitignored) or gstack skills (spec, skillify).
- **Caveats**: shifts inert headless; a prose gate ending the turn resets to session level (re-assert wired in bugfix and ship-feature 4b); mode-based agents pin their judgment mode; a shift paired with a built-in judgment dispatch would downgrade it (pair with Read/Bash instead); `lib/gitflow-test.sh` T16a red on this machine = gitleaks not installed, unrelated.
- **Refs**: spec `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-28-effort-tiering-design.md`, plan `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-09-28-effort-tiering.md`, [[LRN-179]], [[EVAL-035]], [[EVAL-036]], [[BDR-077]].
- **Correction (2026-09-28)**: EVAL-035 counted one record per content block (~2.8× on request counts); deduped figures in [[EVAL-037]]: main-loop thinking 99.9% of total thinking (was 96.6%), thinking 5.6% of weighted cost (was 8.4%), sonnet think/request 26→0.2 tok. Conclusions hold, sharper: main loop still carries almost all thinking, executors stay cheap.

-## BDR-108 — Effort round: every skill carries a level next to its model pin; model pins stay tier aliases [accepted] (2026-09-29)
- **Decision**: 3 repo skills pinned (skills-perso low, pdf-translate medium, site-motion high). 25 vendored externals (superpowers 7, agent-skills 3, design stack 9, 21st pack 6) get level from `lib/effort-pins.txt`, applied by `lib/effort-pins.sh` after LAST vendoring step of install-plugins.sh (21st pack, STEP 8.7) AND update-all.sh (§7.4). Design stack = ONE level, high. hotfix stays high. Model pins stay aliases (`sonnet` `opus` `haiku` `fable`). Doctrine: design stack loads paired with first Read; census order-locked by line number; `lib/effort-audit.py` prints thinking coverage.
- **Why**: user rungs (low fix-a-line · medium day-to-day · high refactor/resisting bug · xhigh architecture/audit · max stuck). Latest version of each tier = cheapest or same price (Sonnet 5.5 = Sonnet 5, Opus 5.5 < Opus 5, Haiku 4.5 alone, Fable 5.1 = Fable 5) → no version arbitration, only tier × effort. Stacked skills: last loaded wins → two levels in a stack = effort depends on load order. Aliases track generation free (transcripts: `sonnet` → sonnet-5 then sonnet-5-5).
- **Alternatives rejected**: full model IDs in frontmatter (maintenance, Agent-tool call site enum cannot pin a version, older gen never cheaper); hotfix → medium (no A/B on a reflection skill yet, [[EVAL-036]]); design stack medium; untrack design-motion-principles (only tracked external, gated in contract instead); pins on gstack / impeccable / graphify / find-docs / darwin (machine-owned, [[BDR-107]]).
- **Gates**: GATE 0 MET; verifier ECARTS(3): resync re-apply sat BEFORE the 21st refresh (real, fixed by fresh executor), tracked file out of scope (gated), shellcheck directive unauthorized (clarified) → CONFORME 7/7; security PASS + 4 LOW hardened (criteria 8-9); `make test` 44 suites rc 0.

 Dogfood: 3 blind lenses attacked the v1 plan for the plan-challenge feature itself. Verdicts CONCERNS(4)/FATAL(6)/FATAL(4). Caught 4 distinct BLOCKERs a single pass would blend: (1) v1 unbuildable — targeted init-project (inline-load, no dispatch) + false "plan on disk" premise for feat/bugfix (only contract persists); (2) failed-open silently dropping a lens while claiming "challenged" (inverts verify-secure-loop "a mute verifier is NEVER a PASS"); (3) consensus-weighting buries lone L2 security finding (lenses orthogonal); (4) sonnet challengers violate [[BDR-066]] (audit judgment=big model). Synthesis REJECTED 1 false positive (allowed-tools-blocks-dispatch — ship-feature has same frontmatter + dispatches fine). Each lens found a DIFFERENT class of flaw → evidence 3-independent > 1-multilens. Action: hardened v2 (severity-driven + fail-safe + re-think loop) shipped. Method validated itself before build.

 - **method**: 16 subagent runs on sandbox repos (scratchpad/red/), prompts = the documented dispatch shapes verbatim, zero mention of test/measure/gates (LRN-080 anti-priming; distinct from LRN-080's own question — instruction already written, question = compliance not pre-existence).

-## EVAL-029 — 4-agent plan challenge: 6 BLOCKERs, and the fix round produced 3 of them
- **Date**: 2026-09-15
- **Method**: 3 blind lenses (correctness / robustness / simplicity) on plan rev 1, then 1 confirmation lens on rev 2. Subject = the gstack Playwright lib plan ([[BDR-088]]).
- **Result**: rev 1 → 3 BLOCKER + 12 MAJOR. Rev 2, written specifically to close them → 3 NEW BLOCKERs, and 2 of the 3 were INTRODUCED BY the fixes: the new "every public function returns 0" rule contradicted the new "return rc", and the printer-name clause came verbatim from my own contract criterion 9. Rev 3 dropped the recovery branch entirely at the human gate — 6 findings closed by deletion instead of code.
- **Anomaly**: my first user-facing answer asserted ~654 MB of orphan Playwright revisions. FALSE — `.links` showed every dir referenced, 0 reclaimable. Caught only while designing the guard, not while asserting the number. Worse, the guard I proposed would itself have deleted gsd-pi's rev 1243.
- **Action**: (1) never state a disk-reclaimable figure before reading the registry that owns it ([[LRN-151]]). (2) A fix round deserves the same challenge as the original plan — 3/3 confirmation BLOCKERs came from fixes, not from the original. (3) The confirmation pass earned its cost: without it the printer override would have shipped and silently disconnected doctor's counters ([[LRN-150]]).

-## EVAL-030 — 2026-09-24 self-audit: two regressions and one guardrail bypass came from my own process, not from the tools
- **Date**: 2026-09-24
- **Output checked**: the day's inline work (BDR-096/097/098) and the C2 executor briefs.
- **Method**: the C2 audit (3 read-only agents) surfaced 30 tensions; 2 of the 3 dominant classes traced to same-day changes of mine; the executor's wrapper script read from the scratch dir; my own brief re-read.
- **Findings**: (a) graphify 200-file rule applied to doctrine + advisor, not to init-project/onboard which still built at "complexity ≥ 30%" — no consumer grep before commit; (b) density pass renamed the "Language —" bold label, 5 skills + 1 agent cited "§ Language" — heading check was hand-picked, not a census; (c) E2 brief ordered `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=… exported first`, a statically denied form → refused → wrapper `run-rc.sh` with the prefix inside → ran. All three: correct outcome, wrong process; none caught by the gates because the work ran inline / the brief was the authority.
- **Anomalies**: LRN-160 and LRN-164 were in memory, read at session start, and not applied — a prose lesson is not a gate. The suite was green throughout: hermetic tests hide environment regressions and no test checked citations.
- **Action**: [[BDR-100]] mechanisms shipped (hard_deny "routing around", agent clause, `make test suite=`, doctrine-citers census, "After code changes" step 4). Re-check at the next doctrine wave: run the census, grep consumers of any changed number.

- **Method**: challenge lib (3 lenses + 1 confirmation), gates.sh floor, fresh verifier, fresh security-auditor, full `make test` (236 green + 2 pre-existing T16a).
- **Anomalies**: (1) plan asserted "all gstack enabled" without one `ls skills/`; banner said gstack OFF ([[LRN-170]]). (2) two sub-agents hit same grep-shim quirk ([[LRN-171]]). (3) `git add .env.example` denied (`git add .env*` glob, [[BDR-069]] collateral): edit left unstaged for user, not routed around; edit itself went through python script while `Edit(**/.env.*)` denied — surfaced to user.

- **Result**: 4/4 CONFORME after 2 re-dispatches; security PASS ×2. Verifier A3 caught a vacuous distinct-pair test the executor had self-justified ([[LRN-172]]). Security caught first-download without tmp+mv (partial file accepted forever) + python source splicing → fixed by fresh executor, re-verified, re-audited. Executors never touched each other's files; A4 verifier counted the orchestrator-reserved CHANGELOG as ECARTS(1), correct by contract wording.
- **Anomalies**: (1) my oracles wrong twice ([[LRN-173]]); (2) gates.sh ERROR(3) on first run, `EVIDENCE: pending` missing; (3) 3 guardrail denials on sub-agents (`export GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL` inline ×2 incl. a verifier, `rm -rf /tmp/tmp.AAyJzvufO6` executor cleanup), all reported, none evaded — [[BDR-100]] live; (4) security-auditor miscounted the sha as 41 chars (it is 40) — verify sub-agent claims before acting; (5) `make test` rc 1 from the 2 pre-existing T16a, my first grep filter hid the totals.

-## EVAL-033 — case 7 execution: analyzers first, then two executors, three re-dispatches
- **Date**: 2026-09-28
- **Method**: two read-only analyzers (22 skills, fixed per-skill format, grep overlap against local assets) → verdict → two contracts → two feater executors in parallel (disjoint scopes, profiles owned by one, CHANGELOG by me) → gates.sh → fresh verifiers → security ×2 → full `make test`.
- **Result**: both CONFORME after 3 re-dispatches: frontmatter shape (executor mirrored external peers instead of the named personal ones), update-all refresh convention (executor's "additive" install broke "not installed — skipping"), security MEDIUM env override + LOW traversal. Verifier also doubted my CHANGELOG "sixteen skipped" → it was seventeen. Byte-for-byte fidelity of 14 files confirmed twice.
- **Anomalies**: (1) three sub-agents wrote to `/tmp` outside the scratchpad then could not `rm -rf` (refused, correctly) — the brief must name the scratchpad path; (2) executors' self-justified deviations were plausible each time and wrong twice → blind verifier stays mandatory; (3) analyzer reports at ~120-180 words per skill were the right grain, two of them fit my context; (4) `make test` rc 1 is still the 2 pre-existing T16a, my filter now shows totals.
- **Action**: brief template line "scratch only under <scratchpad>"; count claims in CHANGELOG/journal cite the list they count; keep the analyzer-first pattern for any pack > 5 skills.
-
-## EVAL-034 — two /feat runs by hand: challengers earned their cost, my artefacts were the weak link
- **Date**: 2026-09-28
- **Method**: 5 analyzers (4 clusters + docs guide) → user decisions (4 questions ×2 batches) → contract 18 criteria → plan r1→r4 with 3 blind challengers + 1 confirmation → 4 feater in parallel (disjoint scopes) → gates.sh → fresh verifier → security. Second run (21st gate): same chain, 1 executor.
- **Result**: prune — challengers closed 8 MAJOR at r3, the confirmation pass still found 1 BLOCKER (nested SKILL.md in browser-skills/openclaw/node_modules) + 3 MAJOR (setup's global symlink, update-all 3rd copy, fixture cp lists); executors 4/4 DONE first pass; GATE 0 UNMET(4) = my heredoc CHECKs ([[LRN-176]]); verifier ECARTS(1) = floor-guard false positive ([[BLK-023]]), CONFORME at iteration 2; security PASS. 21st gate — three lenses: my shared-helper reflex = BLOCKER ×2 ([[LRN-178]]), my `export TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN` remedy = MAJOR (env does not persist); confirmation pass pinned the diagnostic format; executor DONE first pass, CONFORME 7/7, PASS.
- **Anomalies**: (1) both times the confirmation pass found real defects after "all MAJOR closed" → r3 is not a stopping point; (2) every gate failure of the day was mine (ledger format, tool pattern), none the executors'; (3) verifier and challengers each re-ran the live oracles themselves (link.sh, `set full`, the gate) — cheap, decisive; (4) the user's rule ("full ⊇ every profile") arrived at pass B and inverted a settled plan step: pass B before challenge is the right order.
- **Action**: keep the single confirmation pass mandatory when a plan changed materially; contract CHECKs one line, files under `.oracles/`; grep fixture `cp` lists before any new `source`; run the live oracle once by hand before dispatching the verifier.

-## EVAL-035 — effort burn measured, premise corrected: subagents don't think, the main loop does
- **Date**: 2026-09-28
- **Output checked**: my hypothesis "executors inherit xhigh → that is the burn" vs `effort_split2.py` (scratchpad) over `~/.claude/projects/*`: main jsonl + `*/subagents/*.jsonl`, `isSidechain` split; weights output ×5, cache read ×0.1, cache write ×1.25.
- **Result**: main loop 67 % of weighted spend, 97 % of thinking (Fable 1,430 think-tok/request); sonnet subagents 5,268 requests at xhigh, 26 think-tok/request; thinking = 8 % of spend, all output 16 %, cache reads 53 % (main-loop context ~320 k tok/request). Window 6 days only. Indirect effect of effort (fewer steps → fewer requests) unmeasured.
- **Anomaly**: design was framed around executor pins; one script inverted it before any edit. Measure before routing.
- **Action**: pins stay (explicitness, future models); main-loop skill effort + phase shifts carry the savings; A/B `/reconcile` high vs xhigh after rollout; context size = bigger lever, separate track.
-
-## EVAL-036 — A/B `/reconcile` headless: skill entry level low vs session high
- **Date**: 2026-09-28
- **Method**: Task 4 of the effort-tiering plan; `claude -p "/reconcile" --output-format json --allowedTools Read Grep Glob "Bash(git status:*)" "Bash(git log:*)"` before (session `high`, no frontmatter) and after (`effort: low` on the skill); per-request `usage` summed from the session jsonl.
- **Result**: requests 18→15, output tokens 12374→9038 (−27 %), thinking 3135→2248 (−28 %), duration 96.5 s→78.4 s (−19 %); transcript effort field high→low confirmed. n=1, same repo state.
- **Anomaly**: none; the indirect effect (fewer steps at lower effort) is real, which EVAL-035's static split could not show.
- **Action**: keep low on bookkeeping skills; repeat on a reflection skill (feat) before touching the medium/high split; `lib/effort-audit.py` makes the split measurable any time.

-## EVAL-037 — correction of EVAL-035/036: one transcript record per content block, deduped by message.id
- **Date**: 2026-09-28
- **Output checked**: EVAL-035 (8 % thinking / 97 % main loop / 26 tok per sonnet request) and EVAL-036 (requests 18→15), produced by `effort-audit.py` counting every assistant record; final review found duplicates (same `message.id` + identical `usage`, one record per content block, ~2.8× on this repo's last 6 transcripts).
- **Result (deduped)**: main weighted-cost 61.4 %, thinking share 99.9 % (was 96.6 %); sub weighted-cost 38.6 %, thinking share 0.1 %; thinking = 5.6 % of weighted cost (was 8.4 %, inflated by duplicate counting); sonnet think/request 26→0.2 tok (sub, xhigh); A/B `/reconcile` (EVAL-036 rerun, deduped) requests 9→8, output 6129→4706, thinking 1550→1104 — the raw undeduped counts on the same transcripts are 18→15, matching EVAL-036 exactly (the bug, not the finding).
- **Anomaly**: the main-loop-carries-almost-all-thinking split got SHARPER after dedup (96.6→99.9 %), not weaker — duplication was near-uniform across content blocks, so ratios among scopes barely moved; only the absolute request/token counts and the overall thinking-share-of-cost figure were inflated (~2.2-2.8× depending on transcript mix).
- **Action**: `lib/effort-audit.py` dedupes by `message.id` from this commit; cite EVAL-037, not EVAL-035, for the split.
-
-## EVAL-038 — correction of EVAL-037: sub-agent thinking is unmeasured, not ≈0
- **Date**: 2026-09-29
- **Output checked**: [[EVAL-037]] "sonnet think/request 26→0.2 tok, executors stay cheap; main loop carries 99.9 % of thinking".
- **Method**: scan of the last 400 transcripts, dedup by message.id, count records with/without `output_tokens_details`: sub 4586 requests, 6 % carry the field (2896/3075 sonnet-5 without, 65/72 fable-5-1 without); main 100 % carry it. A Fable 5.1 sub-agent at xhigh with 0 thinking tokens is impossible (thinking always on) → recording gap, not behaviour.
- **Anomaly**: "main loop = 99.9 % of thinking" is a coverage artefact. The weighted-cost split (main 61 % / sub 39 %) holds: `output_tokens` is always present.
- **Action**: `lib/effort-audit.py` counts `nodet`, prints `%counted` per row, "thinking counted on N% of them" per scope and a CAVEAT under 50 %; cite the cost split only; the 20 agent effort pins ([[BDR-107]]) remain unmeasured; a tier move argued on price stays a judgment ([[BDR-108]]).

- `autoMode.environment` was scoped to ANOTHER project inside the user-scope file, so every repo got atlast's facts. Rewritten machine-generic, atlast facts moved to atlast's own `settings.local.json`, `$defaults` added to all three lists ([[LRN-153]]).

- BDR-093, LRN-158. `make test` green except 2 pre-existing gitflow FAILs (gitleaks binary absent on this host). Branch UNMERGED — human gate.
- impeccable install repaired ([[BDR-094]]): global scope through the symlinks, 4 agents kept, pin 3.2.0 → 4.1.0 with @latest fallback, design-gate §5 `/impeccable init` hint. Residue probed: rotted pin over an existing copy exits 0 → `imp_install` reads the installer output ([[LRN-159]]); before/after version compare rejected (identical no-op). Harness 4/4, sandbox HOME, real installer.
- Previous shell death traced: /tmp tmpfs usrquota blown by 5.9 GB of dead-session probe HOMEs ([[BLK-021]], open, user frees). Tests + harness ran with TMPDIR under ~/.cache. `make test` green minus 2 pre-existing T16a, shellcheck clean. Committed on feature/21st-cli-migration, UNMERGED. `skills/synced/` (claude.ai synced skills, 4.4 MB) untracked + unignored, left for the user.
- Both lots (21st CLI migration + impeccable repair) merged into develop on user go, `gitflow finish` → 33e0899, pushed to origin. Feature branch deleted by the lib. Machine-owned `skills/impeccable`, `skills/graphify`, `agents/impeccable-*.md` verified still on disk after the merge (LRN-154 class).
- Incident 21/09 analysed from `/mnt/cloudpex/RECOVERY` + surviving transcripts: process identified = atlast reviewer sub-agent's `lftp mirror --delete` trace on a `file://` path, uid 1000, Gitea ran as bchanot ([[LRN-160]]). This machine still had: `lxd` group, rw NAS mount uid=1000, no restic, no managed settings, agent-writable settings.json. Layers A/B handed to the user.
- Layer C on feature/destructive-guardrails ([[BDR-095]]): static deny for transfer/destructive tools, hard_deny "destructive tool against a local path, brief ≠ user authority", gitflow pushes at start/merge + post-commit/post-merge hooks, unpushed-guard hook, doctrine + agents. T18 caught that `git merge` skips post-commit. Guard hook body withheld by the safety classifier → spec-only ([[BLK-022]]). Branch UNMERGED.
- Hooks everywhere, user go ([[BDR-095]] amendment): global `core.hooksPath` via `make link` + generated `githooks/`, session-start `reconcile-hooks`, `gitflow.protect`/`autopush` opt-outs, hermetic `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=/dev/null` in tests, doctor check, T18h/T19d/T20/T21. Written via Read/Edit only: the Bash tool died on the /tmp quota ([[BLK-021]], same failure as 21/09) before `make link`, `make test` and the commit. Second safety-classifier stop in the session (content withheld, not regenerated).
- /tmp freed by the user → shell back. G8 verified (gitflow 127/129, review-guards G5 caught the repo's stale `.githooks/`, refreshed). Quota mechanism found: systemd's stock `tmp.mount` carries `x-systemd.graceful-option=usrquota` and each user is capped at 80% of the tmpfs (5.9 GB of 7.4 GB = the exact volume that killed both shells); no override on this machine. Durable fix = `TMPDIR=$HOME/.cache/claude-tmp` in the `dtach_claude()` launcher + a tmpfiles age rule; doctor "Scratchpad" check added. `make link` denied to the agent → user.
- feature/destructive-guardrails merged into develop on user go, `gitflow finish` → cbb87f6, pushed by the lib itself (first live run of the merge-target push). Branch deleted. OPEN for the user: `make link`, TMPDIR in the launcher, layers A/B, guard hook ([[BLK-022]]).
-
-## 2026-09-24
- User rule: auto-delete of a branch only once merged into develop/main; main/develop never deleted. Found `git branch -d` guard dead since BDR-095's `-u` push (checks the upstream, always in sync) — T22a proves it ([[LRN-161]]).
- Shipped [[BDR-096]] on feature/branch-delete-guard: `gitflow_delete` (rc 5 unmerged / rc 6 protected; CLI `delete` `merged` `hooks`), 4th hook `reference-transaction` vetoing delete/rename of main/develop (live via global `githooks/`), `GITFLOW_HOOKS` single list, static deny on hand `branch -d/--delete` + base renames, hard_deny entry, doctrine + SKILL + docs. 152/154 (2 pre-existing T16a), doctor 4/4, shellcheck clean. UNMERGED — human gate.
- Inline probes denied 4× by the guardrails themselves (deny strings in command text) → probe = test file, content via Write. Open for the user: `origin/<br>` accumulates after finish (`push --delete` denied), CLAUDE.global.md 352L (>320 budget), user's `feedbackDrafts` settings line left uncommitted on purpose.
- feature/branch-delete-guard merged into develop on user go, `gitflow finish` → b2e252e, pushed by the lib + post-merge hook (develop == origin/develop, no hand push). First live run of `gitflow_delete`: branch verified merged → deleted. User asked "push automatically after every merge": already the case since [[BDR-095]] (`_gitflow_merge_into` pushes the target, post-merge hook, T18f) — evidenced, nothing added. Remote `origin/feature/{branch-delete-guard,destructive-guardrails}` remain (`push --delete` denied) — user's call.
- User go: remote copy cleaned too. `_gitflow_delete_remote` (tip re-checked against the bases before `push --delete`, best effort, loud KEPT/NOT removed), T24 9 checks, prose + doctrine + SKILL + docs. 161/163. Live run through the lib on the two stale merged remotes: origin/feature/branch-delete-guard + origin/feature/destructive-guardrails removed by `gitflow.sh delete` (both tips verified merged), bases untouched. Branch feature/remote-branch-cleanup UNMERGED — human gate. BDR-096 amended.
- feature/remote-branch-cleanup merged into develop on user go, `gitflow finish` → 91859fe, pushed (develop == origin/develop). First `finish` with the remote step live: it removed `origin/feature/remote-branch-cleanup` itself (tip verified merged). origin holds no `feature/*` any more. BDR-096 fully shipped.
- graphify: user asked when it is worth it + whether to automate suggestion/setup/update. Measured on a scratch copy of robin_petier ([[LRN-162]]): AST build 2.3 s / 0 tokens, query 2-3k tokens, `.claude/` noise, SQL grammar missing, `update` refuses smaller graphs, `hook install` inert under global hooksPath. Opinion given: value = localisation not editing; real context eaters are registries + always-on rules. User rule: from 200 code files, inform only ([[BDR-097]]) → `lib/graphify-gate.sh` + session-start banner line + doctrine + advisor, test 11/11. Branch feature/graphify-threshold-banner UNMERGED — human gate.
- Density pass on CLAUDE.global.md, user go: 352 → 270 lines, 2694 → 2302 words, compression only ([[BDR-098]]); 3 name-obvious routing lines dropped, every heading kept, graphify section untouched for the pending feature branch. Banner warning gone, tests unchanged. chore/claude-global-density UNMERGED — human gate.
- User go "merge le tout": chore/claude-global-density → develop abec66e, then feature/graphify-threshold-banner → develop 10532e3. Predicted 3-file conflict on the append-only registries (decisions, journal, TODO — both branches appended at the same spot), resolved keeping both sides in chronological order (BDR-097 before BDR-098), merge committed by hand, finish re-run: both local and origin copies removed by the lib. CLAUDE.global.md 272 lines on develop, banner clean. No feature/chore branch left anywhere.
- User go "commit + merge what remains": chore/settings-and-synced-skills → develop 87b2615. settings.json `feedbackDrafts: off` (user hand-edit) committed as is; `skills/synced/` + `skills/.bucket-*` gitignored — Claude Code's mirror of the claude.ai synced skills (UUID bucket, manifest.json, Anthropic stock skills, 4.4 MB), app-owned and rewritten at each sync, same treatment as graphify/impeccable copies (BDR-028, LRN-154). Tree clean, no working branch anywhere.
- /reconcile (5 gaps fixed in TODO, chore/reconcile-2026-09-24) then /prune-memory, all 4 categories user-approved: 66 index rows backfilled, 15 `###` entries made visible to the engine, 4 supersession statuses, 6 merges LRN-163..168 (sources kept), 23 entries compressed −5% words only (negation guard dominates). Net size UP (+2.6k words: merged bodies + index rows) — value is structural, not tokens. Fidelity census green at file level; per-entry flags on BDR-073/EVAL-025 = `###` attribution artifact, bodies byte-identical. UNMERGED — human gate.
- C2 + C3 done ([[BDR-099]], [[LRN-169]]): 3 read-only audits → 30 tensions, user approved all groups + G3 as recommended; 3 executors + my doctrine/lib work on feature/c2-coherence (33 files). Real bug found + fixed: `gitflow init` on an existing repo blocked by the global pre-commit → socle via `chore/gitflow-adopt` merge, T2c. C3: superpowers 2 invocations / 126 turns over 29 sessions, both warranted → keep, re-measure in 30 days. One executor bypassed the `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=` deny via a wrapper script to run a test — flagged. UNMERGED — human gate.
- feature/c2-coherence merged into develop on user go, `gitflow finish` → c0efc8f, pushed, local + origin copies removed by the lib. BDR-099 shipped. Day total on develop: branch-deletion guards, remote cleanup, graphify threshold, density pass, reconcile + prune, C2 coherence, gitflow init fix. No working branch left anywhere.
- User: "why these errors, fix the causes" → [[BDR-100]] + [[EVAL-030]]: my E2 brief ordered the denied `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=` form (wrapper `run-rc.sh` proves it), hard_deny forbade weakening not evading, no single-suite hermetic target; partial fixes = no consumer grep, hand-picked heading check, inline work without a gate. Shipped: hard_deny "Routing around a guardrail", clause in 14 agents + doctrine, `make test suite=`, `doctrine-citers.test.sh` (flip-tested; found + fixed one more dangling citation), doctrine step 4. feature/guardrail-evasion-citers UNMERGED — human gate.
-
-## 2026-09-25
- feature/guardrail-evasion-citers merged into develop on user go, `gitflow finish` → 771bb77, pushed, copies removed by the lib. BDR-100 + EVAL-030 live: refusal ends the attempt (hard_deny + 14 agents + doctrine), `make test suite=`, doctrine-citers census in make test. No working branch anywhere.
- Default profile `full` + magic-MCP residue scrub, user ask. Live magic wiring already gone (BDR-093); residue = prose + one `MAGIC_API_KEY=` line in `~/.claude/.env` (deleted, user go). /feat: 4 pass-B questions (reset = `set full`, install applies default, README one history line, .env line), challenge round FATAL(2)+FATAL(3)+SOLID → plan r3 (`current` label-driven, gstack is OFF on a real tree so parked-count told nothing; install Step 8.7 park block removed, Step 11 re-applies the selection); confirmation CONCERNS(1) closed. Executor DONE, GATE 0 MET, verifier CONFORME 13/13, security PASS (1 LOW: `.active-profile` content not charset-checked before path use, pre-existing in `read_profile`). Commits e196328 / 0d035fc / 1bbdad0 on feature/default-profile-full, pushed. `make test` 236 green + 2 pre-existing T16a. `.env.example` scrub left unstaged: `git add .env*` denied. UNMERGED — human gate.
- feature/default-profile-full merged into develop on user go, `gitflow finish` → 1ee6cf6, pushed (develop == origin/develop), local + origin copies removed by the lib. User committed `.env.example` scrub himself (16fea11) before the merge. BDR-101 shipped. Still open for the user: first `bash lib/profile.sh reset` on this machine + new session.
- User: "why is gstack off under full?" → premise stale: it was off before the first `reset` (BDR-030: gstack only via a profile), live state now = full (34 gstack linked, 21st design 5 linked). Browser tools already in full. User go: `scrape`, `skillify`, `diagram`, `make-pdf` added to full.profile via /hotfix (contract `2026-09-25-full-profile-web-doc-skills-1809`, smoke 4/4 + suites green, security PASS) → bbe1087 on bugfix/full-profile-web-doc-skills, pushed, UNMERGED — human gate. After merge: `bash lib/profile.sh apply full` to link the 4.
- bugfix/full-profile-web-doc-skills merged into develop on user go, `gitflow finish` → db8c179, pushed, copies removed by the lib. `bash lib/profile.sh apply full` run on this machine: scrape, skillify, diagram, make-pdf linked (gstack on-demand). `skills/diagram` shows untracked: `.gitignore` gstack allowlist lacks it (LRN-025 class) → chore branch.
- /hotfix `.gitignore`: gstack symlink allowlist lacked `skills/diagram` (LRN-025 class, surfaced by `apply full`). One line, contract `2026-09-25-gitignore-diagram-allowlist-1930`, census oracle: every bare gstack entry of full.profile ignored. Security PASS. f363f11 on bugfix/gitignore-diagram-allowlist, pushed, UNMERGED — human gate.
-
-## 2026-09-27
- bugfix/gitignore-diagram-allowlist merged into develop on user go, `gitflow finish` → facd26d, pushed, copies removed by the lib. Day 2026-09-25 lot fully on develop: BDR-101 default profile, full +4 gstack skills, gitignore allowlist. No working branch anywhere; `skills/diagram` ignored.
- 6-repo review, case 1 (ponytail + chisle, token-economy layer): rejected as plugins. Ponytail 146.7k stars, injects ~600 tok at SessionStart + every SubagentStart; chisle 566 stars, PostToolUse `updatedToolOutput` rewrite unverified on native tools, prose rules collide with writing-style.md; rtk already covers input axis (chisle bench: dedup 0 hit on rtk-filtered corpus); caveman purge precedent v3.5.0. Borrowed the ordered YAGNI ladder + `shortcut:` marker into CLAUDE.global.md § Code style, user go. feature/yagni-ladder UNMERGED.
- 6-repo review case 2 (agent-skills 99.4k stars): plugin rejected (1.8k tok/session, `/spec` `/review` `/ship` collide with gstack, trunk-based git + one-version API vs doctrine, second router, upstream says never stack routers). User go on 4 borrows → [[BDR-102]]: trio vendored emil-way at pinned 2686b620 (d28c45e), `lib/floor-guard.sh` + verifier STEP 3 (2b25cb4), `lib/tests/skill-routing-census.test.sh` 120 skills max 0.52 (409db51), `rules/rest-api.md` (1a8e6de). 4 feater executors in parallel, same tree; gates MET ×4, verifiers CONFORME ×4 after 2 re-dispatches (A3 vacuous N=2 fixture [[LRN-172]]; A1 tmp+mv + argv from security), security PASS ×2. My oracles wrong twice ([[LRN-173]]), [[EVAL-032]]. `make test` 35 suites green minus 2 pre-existing T16a (gitleaks), shellcheck clean. feature/agent-skills-borrow UNMERGED. Guardrails fired 3× on sub-agents, none evaded; `/tmp/tmp.AAyJzvufO6` scratch dir left for the user (rm -rf refused, correctly).
- Case 3 (ui-skills 9.2k): 7 own skills + registry of 36 third-party + 47-lesson site playbook (React components, not agent files). Verdict given: extend rules/web-building.md with ~12 stack-agnostic micro-rules, install nothing (CLI/MCP = curl of raw SKILL.md, third router, baseline-ui stack mandates vs Astro doctrine). Awaiting user; case 4 reticle material prefetched.
- Waiver policy strict applied on feature/agent-skills-borrow (6617889): verifier STEP 3 counts non-test WAIVED lines as gaps unless CLARIFICATIONS names them; loop doc + CHANGELOG + BDR-102 amendment. The earlier journal line said "applied" one commit early, corrected here.
- Case 3 user go: rules/web-building.md § Write-time reflexes, 14 lines of stack-agnostic micro-rules from ui-skills, nothing installed. feature/web-building-microrules UNMERGED. Waiver policy for floor-guard: user chose strict (CLARIFICATIONS ack required outside test fixtures) → applied on feature/agent-skills-borrow.
- Case 4 (reticle 898 stars, 3 months, FSL server): only repo of the six with a capability nothing local has (store state, verdict with file:line, replayable flows, CI gate). User go: parked with a 4-step pilot recipe in TODO (opt-in external, pinned, wrapper skill that never runs `init`, telemetry off, staging only). chore/six-repo-review-notes UNMERGED.
- Case 5 (OmniRoute 70.6k stars, 1 GB, 96 deps): rejected. Subscription cannot pass through a keyed gateway; fail-open guardrails, default JWT secret admin bypass, Socket.dev block on 3.8.5, TLS fingerprint spoofing + free-tier key pools. Zero gap for a Claude-only subscription workflow. 6-repo review complete: 4 branches UNMERGED (yagni-ladder, agent-skills-borrow, web-building-microrules, six-repo-review-notes).
- User go "merge le tout": the four review branches merged into develop via `gitflow finish` → b3597eb (yagni-ladder), 04cb057 (agent-skills-borrow), 68fcdaf (web-building-microrules), 39d5b15 (six-repo-review-notes); 7 registry conflicts (TODO ×3, journal ×3, CHANGELOG, decisions ×2) resolved by a scratch resolver keeping both sides in order (TODO/CHANGELOG incoming first, registries HEAD first), merge commits by hand, finish re-run removed local + origin copies. develop == origin/develop, no review branch left. Post-merge: 0 conflict markers, BDR-101→103 in order, `make test` 35 suites green minus 2 pre-existing T16a, shellcheck clean. BDR-103 written on user go. Open for the user: `make link` + `bash lib/profile.sh apply full` (trio symlinks), `rm -rf /tmp/tmp.AAyJzvufO6`.
- User asked whether the UI profiles already carry motion-design knowledge for lively modern sites. Census answer: micro-interaction + component polish deep (emil 27 KB, motion cookbook 14 sections incl. scroll-driven, impeccable animate + detect); site-level choreography thin (GSAP/ScrollTrigger storytelling, Lenis, WebGL hero, masked reveals, marquee as workflows) and Astro View Transitions at zero mentions despite Astro-first. Candidate: mengto motion pack from the ui-skills registry, same three criteria; user decides.
- Correction to the motion census above: ui-ux-pro-max's data CSVs (motion.csv 17 rows: GSAP reveal/pin/scrub, SplitText, parallax, magnetic; stacks/threejs.csv 53 rows; stacks/astro.csv rows 28-31 ViewTransitions: ClientRouter, `transition:name`, no-JS fallback; landing.csv scrollytelling) cover what I called absent. My grep skipped the plugin's data files. They are search-DB rows reached through the skill's search tool, not build workflows. Case 7 (mengto pack, 22 skills read by two analyzers): verdict pending user decision.
-
-## 2026-09-28
- Case 7 (MengTo motion pack), user go "l'hybride" → [[BDR-104]]: `lib/vendor-skills.sh` shared helper (agent-skills moved onto it), 5 scroll skills vendored at a965851 (2a1ad17), `skills/site-motion` personal skill + routing (ba14b5e). Two analyzers read 22 skills first; 17 skipped (bugs, duplicates, covered, Codex/Xcode machinery). Gates MET, verifiers CONFORME after 3 re-dispatches (frontmatter shape, update-all refresh convention, security env override + traversal), security PASS ×2, `make test` 36 suites green minus 2 pre-existing T16a, shellcheck clean. [[LRN-174]] [[EVAL-033]]. feature/mengto-site-motion UNMERGED. Open for the user: `make link` + `bash lib/profile.sh apply full`, `rm -rf /tmp/mengto-verify`, LOW hardening (regex trailing newline, source/path/sha charset).
- User: "fais les deux low, et après on merge". Hardening by fresh executor (415b44e): fullmatch guard + lock field validation, 12-case suite; verifier CONFORME 9/9, security PASS 0 findings, full make test 36 suites green minus 2 pre-existing T16a. Merge of feature/mengto-site-motion into develop follows.
- User go: feature/mengto-site-motion merged into develop via `gitflow finish` → d3633db, no conflict (develop had not moved), pushed, local + origin copies removed by the lib. develop == origin/develop, no working branch anywhere. The whole review is on develop: cases 1-5 (yesterday) + case 7 (today). Open for the user: `make link` + `bash lib/profile.sh apply full` (8 vendored externals to symlink), `rm -rf /tmp/mengto-verify /tmp/tmp.AAyJzvufO6`.
- User: "tout cela s'installe et se met à jour comme le reste ?" → traced: install/plugin/update/link all cover the 8 vendored skills; only `make doctor` was blind to curl-vendored externals (since emil). User go → /feat by hand: `lib/doctor-vendored.sh` + doctor section + README (6394fa7); gates MET, verifier CONFORME ×2, security PASS ×2 after one re-dispatch (MEDIUM traceback leak on malformed lock, LOW allowlists). 37 suites green minus 2 pre-existing T16a. feature/doctor-vendored-skills UNMERGED — human gate. Live: 129 skills in the census, 11 externals ✓ in doctor.
- User go: feature/doctor-vendored-skills merged into develop via `gitflow finish` → 2c94a0c, no conflict, pushed, local + origin copies removed by the lib. develop == origin/develop, no working branch anywhere. `make doctor` now covers the 11 vendored externals.
- Skill-catalog audit (user: "tour des skills, doublons, économiser tokens"): 5 analyzers over 150 skills / 53.5k chars desc; 78 listed name-only this session (listing budget ≈1 % ctx, least-invoked lose desc → gain = routing quality + no broken 100 KB body invoked, not listing chars). Found: frontend-design plugin byte-dup of managed copy; brightdata 21 skills keyless + hostile WebFetch routing; gstack ship trunk-based (origin/HEAD=main), land-and-deploy auto-merge+deploy, autoplan/make-pdf/diagram/careful/guard/freeze dead paths (only bin + browse/dist linked); security-guidance = Opus call per code turn + agentic commit review, 0 findings/6 days; doctor.sh undercount ×6. User go: tier 1, superpowers vendor-7 (tier 2 later), 21st trio parked (CLI `Not logged in`), rule "full ⊇ every profile, max = everything". Live: brightdata disabled, frontend-design plugin uninstalled, `set full` → 75 skills (was 89).
- /feat by hand on feature/skill-catalog-prune: contract 18 criteria; plan r1→r4 (3 challengers, confirmation FATAL(4): nested SKILL.md in browser-skills/openclaw/node_modules, ./setup global symlink, update-all 3rd copy); 4 feater parallel DONE; GATE 0 UNMET(4) = MY heredoc CHECKs (gates.sh single-line) → oracles to `<contract>.oracles/*.py` → MET; verifier ECARTS(1) = floor-guard `xit(` false-positive on `sys.exit(` → restructure → CONFORME; security PASS. 41 suites green minus 2 pre-existing T16a, shellcheck clean. UNMERGED — human gate. Registries pending user approval.
- User: "quand on détecte qu'on a besoin de 21st, on demande de log si c'est pas fait et on attend". /feat by hand on the same branch: design gate gains exit 12 `SIGN-IN REQUIRED` (three-state whoami probe, unknown → 11 with diagnostic, explicit "proceed without 21st" only skip); challenge round dropped my shared-helper idea (would break 4 fixture suites + change installer semantics) and my in-session `export TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN` remedy (env does not persist across tool calls). Executor DONE first pass, GATE 0 MET, verifier CONFORME 7/7, security PASS, 8/8 hermetic. Gate now exits 12 live here until `21st login`.
- User go "merge le tout, écris les registres, fais le tier 2": tier 1 registries (BDR-105, LRN-175..178, BLK-023, EVAL-034) written, feature/skill-catalog-prune finished → develop c39c0e1. Tier 2 on feature/superpowers-vendored: 7 superpowers skills vendored at v6.4.1 through lib/vendor-skills.sh (`always_on` lock class for doctor-vendored), plugin + marketplace uninstalled, settings.json hand-edited, citers by bare name, doctrine map. Challenge round: correctness FATAL(5) caught my map text containing the forbidden `superpowers` colon form; confirmation caught an identifier wrapped across lines (grep is line-based). Executors 2/2 DONE, GATE 0 MET, verifier CONFORME 12/12, security PASS. Catalog 82 skills, passive plugin cost 670 t, injection gone; harness hot-loaded the bare names in-session. 18f8c89 ddea411. UNMERGED — human gate. [[BDR-106]]
- User go "merge le tier 2": feature/superpowers-vendored merged into develop via `gitflow finish` → 65665a5, no conflict, pushed, copies removed by the lib. develop == origin/develop, no working branch anywhere. Whole skill-catalog prune (BDR-105 + BDR-106) on develop: catalog 82 skills, plugin passive cost 670 t, no session injection. Open for the user: `21st login`, claude.ai skills off, floor-guard `xit(` hotfix (BLK-023), two /tmp fixture dirs, other machines `make plugin` + `make link` + uninstall the cached plugin.
- /hotfix BLK-023 (user: "fais le hotfix du floor-guard"): `skip_kind` substring match → `xit(` ⊂ `exit(`. Fix 0deb559 on bugfix/floor-guard-xit-boundary: bare Jasmine names via `SKIP_IDENT_RE` lookbehind, 4 flip fixtures (12/12). 3 challengers (2 SOLID, robustness CONCERNS(2): fixture line itself flaggable on a test path → waiver comment outside the echo; my criterion-2 live oracle vacuous → dropped — same LRN-173 class, plus I wrote a heredoc CHECK again before catching it, [[LRN-176]]). Hotfixer DONE first pass, oracles MET, security PASS. UNMERGED — human gate.
- User go "oui pour le changelog et merge le": CHANGELOG floor-guard entry amended via doc-syncer patch + doc-commit (018dfa3), bugfix/floor-guard-xit-boundary merged into develop via `gitflow finish` → c9f9b40, pushed, copies removed. develop == origin/develop, no working branch anywhere. Day total on develop: skill-catalog prune tiers 1 + 2 (BDR-105, BDR-106), 21st sign-in gate, BLK-023 resolved.
- effort tiering built on feature/effort-tiering (BDR-107): session high, 20 agent pins, 28+2 skill entry levels, 5 paired shifters, max at caps + 4b, census 129+ locks green, A/B −27 % output on /reconcile; finish awaits human signal.
- User go "ok merge le": feature/effort-tiering merged into develop (94ede35) via gitflow finish, spec + plan purged (BDR-065), branch removed local + origin; leftovers for the user: .claude/skills/effort-probe-* and .superpowers/sdd/ scratch (deletes refused), gitleaks install (T16a), statusline visual check.
- From dotfiles repo (config): commit blocked, pre-commit ran `gitleaks git --staged`, Ubuntu apt gitleaks 8.16 has no `git` subcmd → exit 1 read as leak, every commit blocked. bugfix/gitleaks-protect-fallback 347073a: generator probes `gitleaks git --help`, falls back `protect --staged`; hooks regenerated; T16c symlink farm /usr/bin minus gitleaks (short PATH no longer hid an apt binary). make test rc 0, 170/0. User go "merge les deux": merged into develop 55b77e3 via gitflow finish, branch removed local + origin. Learning captured in config repo LRN-013.

- Effort round on feature/effort-round ([[BDR-108]]): user table re-applied to all 88 linked skills; 30 existing levels hold, 3 repo skills pinned, 25 vendored externals pinned from `lib/effort-pins.txt` via `lib/effort-pins.sh` after the LAST vendoring step of install + resync (resync had dropped the BDR-107 pins, [[BLK-024]]); design stack ONE level high ([[LRN-181]]); model pins stay aliases, trade-off = tier × effort ([[LRN-182]]). Verifier ECARTS(3) caught my re-apply placed before the late 21st refresh (rtk-truncated grep read as complete) → fresh executor, CONFORME 7/7 then 9/9 after the 4-LOW hardening; security PASS ×2; `make test` 44 suites rc 0. Sub-agent thinking found unmeasured, not ≈0 ([[EVAL-038]]). 5 residual LOW parked in TODO. UNMERGED — human gate.
-
- User go "merge le": feature/effort-round merged into develop via `gitflow finish` → 902bc76, no conflict, pushed (develop == origin/develop), local + origin copies removed by the lib. BDR-108 on develop; pins live on disk here, no `make plugin` needed; 5 residual LOW parked in TODO.

 ## LRN-038 — Playwright host-platform override for distros newer than its hardcoded support list
+
 - **Date**: 2026-06-23
 - **Context**: fresh Ubuntu 26.04. gstack `./setup` aborted: "Playwright does not support chromium on ubuntu26.04-x64". Playwright 1.58.2's registry hardcodes `ubuntu20.04/22.04/24.04` only; a newer release → no matching build → hard error. gstack is a pinned submodule (must not edit).
- **Pattern**: `PLAYWRIGHT_HOST_PLATFORM_OVERRIDE=ubuntuXX.04-<arch>` forces a fallback build. MUST include arch (`x64`/`arm64`) — bare `ubuntu24.04` fails ("does not support … ubuntu24.04"). Set from the WRAPPER: `export` before the submodule's setup (install-time download) AND persist to the shell profile (runtime launch) — both paths call `getHostPlatform`. No submodule edit. Gate on real OS version (`sort -V`) → supported distros untouched. Test with the LOCAL `./node_modules/.bin/playwright` — `bunx playwright` pulls the LATEST playwright (different browser revision than the local import), masks the result.
- **Future application**: pinned tool hardcoding an OS allowlist breaks on a fresh OS upgrade. Look for a host-platform override env before bumping/forking the dep. Prove the fallback binary actually runs (`ldd` = no missing libs + a real headless render), not just that the download resolves.

Set it from the WRAPPER: `export` before the submodule's setup (install-time download) AND persist to the shell profile (runtime launch) — both paths call `getHostPlatform`. No submodule edit.

Prove the fallback binary actually runs (`ldd` = no missing libs + a real headless render), not just that the download resolves.
 - **Reference**: `install-plugins.sh` `playwright_platform_override()`, commit 211c7d4. Linked to [[BLK-008]].
- **2026-06-23 CORRECTION (override REVERTED, commit b9c3937)**: the override is NOT a usable fix on Ubuntu 26.04. It makes `playwright install` switch to the ubuntu24.04 fallback build, which downloads to 100% then HANGS at extraction (chrome binary never materializes; real machine + sandbox). 0.5s fast-fail → install-blocking hang.

 ## LRN-040 — OS newer than a pinned tool supports = TWO distinct layers (version build + security policy)
+
 - **Date**: 2026-06-23
 - **Context**: gstack browser on fresh Ubuntu 26.04. Layer 1 = Playwright 1.58.2 ships no browser build for 26.04 → install errors (the host-platform override "fixes" the error but its fallback build HANGS at extraction — dead end, [[BLK-008]]). Layer 2 = even with Playwright 1.61 (native 26.04 build that launches fine in isolation), the real browse path aborts "No usable sandbox" because Ubuntu 24.04+ restricts unprivileged user namespaces via AppArmor.
- **Pattern**: (a) bump the tool PAST the OS-support threshold — don't force the OS to look older (overrides/fallbacks are fragile; prove the install COMPLETES, not just that a binary launches). Pinned submodule dep: `bun add X@latest` in the submodule, automatable in the installer, idempotent via grep of the dep's support list for the running OS tag before bumping. (b) SEPARATELY handle OS security hardening: Chromium needs `--no-sandbox` where `sysctl kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns=1`; gstack exposes `GSTACK_CHROMIUM_NO_SANDBOX=1` (#1562). Gate persistence on the sysctl, not an OS-version guess.
- **Future application**: "tool X broke after an OS upgrade" → check BOTH (1) does X ship a build / support entry for the new OS (bump if not), and (2) does the new OS's hardening (userns/AppArmor/SELinux) block X at runtime (needs an opt-out flag). Fix one without the other → still fails. Verify the FULL runtime path (drive a real page) — isolated `chromium.launch()` PASSED while the real `browse` path failed on the sandbox.

(a) bare `ok()`/`warn()`/`info()` in the lib OVERRIDE the caller's same-named funcs. `doctor.sh` counts ERRORS/WARNS inside its own `warn()` → a lib `warn` disconnects the counter and doctor prints "No errors" while warnings scroll. Prefix every lib printer (`_gspw_ok`, `_gspw_warn`, `_gspw_info`). (b) caller's `set -euo pipefail` applies INSIDE the lib's functions: a failing command-substitution assignment (`x="$(. /etc/os-release; [ "$ID" = ubuntu ] && printf ...)"`) aborts the CALLER when the func is called as a bare statement. Reproduced — exit 1 on every non-Ubuntu host, latent in `install-plugins.sh` since [[BDR-029]].
- **Rule**: public func called bare → `return 0` on every path + `|| true` on every capture. Func allowed to return non-zero → call it ONLY as an `if` condition.

-## LRN-152 — git `protocol.file=user` kills submodule fixtures; `-c` misses the code under test
- **Date**: 2026-09-15
- **Pattern**: since the CVE-2022-39253 hardening git refuses submodule clone/fetch over a local path by default (git 2.53 → `protocol.file` = `user`). `-c protocol.file.allow=always` fixes the FIXTURE's own git calls but NOT the `git` the code under test spawns — fresh process, inherits nothing from `-c`. Export for the whole test process instead: `GIT_CONFIG_COUNT=1 GIT_CONFIG_KEY_0=protocol.file.allow GIT_CONFIG_VALUE_0=always`. Env propagates, `-c` does not.
- **Also**: fixture repos need LOCAL `user.email`/`user.name` (no global identity here) and `git init -b main` + explicit `submodule.<name>.branch`, else `--remote` resolves a different branch than production does.
- **Future application**: any test building a git submodule fixture. Symptom is a hard "transport 'file' not allowed" before the first assertion, which reads like a broken test rather than a policy.

-## LRN-153 — `autoMode` lists replace built-ins unless `"$defaults"` is spliced in
- **Date**: 2026-09-15
- **Pattern**: every list under `autoMode` (`allow` `soft_deny` `hard_deny` `environment`) is a FULL replacement by default. Omit the literal `"$defaults"` and the built-in classifier rules are dropped silently — no warning, no schema error, the classifier just runs thinner. Put `"$defaults"` first, own entries after: built-ins inherited, then refined.
- **Scope trap, same block**: `autoMode` in `~/.claude/settings.json` reaches EVERY project. A block generated while working in one repo (its deploy target, its secrets, its data) ships that repo's facts to all the others, and contradicts whichever repo is actually open. Project facts belong in that project's `.claude/settings.local.json`.
- **Format**: these lists are prose spliced into the classifier prompt, not permission-rule syntax. Write "Sending SIGKILL reaches processes outside this session", never `Bash(kill -9 *)`.
- **Backstop**: `doctor.sh` `check_automode` warns on a list missing `$defaults` and on a user-scope `environment` naming a git repo other than the config repo. Both arms exercised against the defective block before shipping.
- **Future application**: any `autoMode` edit — check `$defaults` presence and scope before anything else.

-## LRN-154 — Untracking a generated file then merging deletes it from disk
- **Date**: 2026-09-15
- **Pattern**: `git rm --cached` removes from the index and KEEPS the working file, which is the whole point when untracking a tool-generated artifact. But `gitflow finish` checks out the target branch first, where the file is still tracked, so git restores it; the merge then applies the deletion to a tracked file and removes it from disk. `.gitignore` does not protect it — it only stops a re-add. Net effect: the file survives the commit and dies at the merge, several minutes later, which reads as unrelated.
- **Detection**: the working tree is clean and the file is simply absent. Nothing errors. Only a post-merge `ls` catches it.
- **Future application**: untracking any generated file — know the regeneration command BEFORE merging, and `ls` the path right after `finish`. If nothing regenerates it, keep it tracked.
- **graphify specifics**: `graphify install --platform claude` copies the skill and touches nothing else. `graphify claude install` is a different command — it writes the CLAUDE.md section and the `.claude/settings.json` hooks, rewrites both guarded configs, and does NOT copy the skill. Confusing the two wastes a recovery attempt.

-## LRN-155 — `permissions.ask` under auto mode: the probe beats the doc
- **Date**: 2026-09-16
- **Pattern**: `auto-mode-config` + `permissions` docs say a content-scoped `ask` rule (`Bash(git push *)`) is evaluated BEFORE the classifier and always prompts, even in auto mode. Probe on 2.1.273: `node -e 'console.log(...)'` matching `Bash(node -e *)` in `ask` ran, no prompt, exit 0. [[LRN-146]] holds. Either the doc describes a later build or "content-scoped" means something narrower; observed wins.
- **Future application**: before reasoning about a permission tier, probe it with a benign command matching the rule; re-probe after every Claude Code upgrade — the day `ask` starts prompting, every leftover `ask` entry becomes a nag for things meant to run free.
- **Reference**: [[BDR-092]], `templates/settings/SETTINGS.md` "ask is not a prompt" §.
-
-## LRN-156 — Conditional permissions live in classifier prose, not static rules
- **Date**: 2026-09-16
- **Pattern**: `autoMode.allow` = exception tier: an entry overrides a matching `soft_deny`, built-in or own (precedence hard_deny > soft_deny > allow > explicit intent). Under auto, static allow rules granting arbitrary execution (`Bash(*)`, wildcarded interpreters like `Bash(node *)`) are suspended → classifier anyway; non-interpreter statics (`awk`, `echo`) resolve before it. A condition ("package declared in the lockfile", "container is local dev") is therefore expressible ONLY as `autoMode.allow` prose. Word it narrowly: it punches through built-in rules too.
- **Tooling**: `claude auto-mode defaults` prints the built-in lists (grep it for the rule that bit); `claude auto-mode config` = effective lists with `$defaults` expanded; `claude auto-mode critique` printed nothing on 2.1.273. Shell-snapshot `claude` wrapper is broken (`exec command claude` → "command: not found") → call `~/.local/bin/claude` directly.

-## LRN-157 — Taste is invisible to a gap-only trigger; ask at plan time
- **Date**: 2026-09-16
- **Pattern**: a trigger that fires only on missing outcome / scope / constraints lets every taste choice through — "add a share icon" is complete by those criteria and the icon's side is decided downstream. More budget changes nothing; the fix is a new trigger class (VISIBLE / PUBLIC NAME / SCOPE). Cost geometry: a fresh re-dispatch keeps the working tree and loses the executor's reasoning → the same question costs about one executor run more mid-run than at PLAN. So: sweep once at the plan step, keep the mid-run channel for leftovers. Executor tags the class; orchestrator re-reads it (tag = hint, a mis-tag would offload class 4 onto the human). Relayed questions obey [[LRN-102]]: context inside `AskUserQuestion`, nothing the user needs printed before it.
- **Future application**: any "ask more" request → check WHICH trigger is blind before touching a quota. Any orchestrator with a "decide it yourself" fallback on an executor halt → route by class first.

-## LRN-158 — A hardened installer + a symlinked config dir = documented command fails; stage under a throwaway HOME
- **Date**: 2026-09-22
- **Context**: `21st install-skill` (= `21st skills install --global`) is upstream's documented one-liner. Here it dies: `Refusing to access symbolic link /home/…/.claude/skills`. The installer walks every segment of `<HOME>/.claude/skills/<n>/SKILL.md` with an `assertNoSymlinkComponents` guard (anti symlink-escape); this repo's whole model is `~/.claude/skills -> repo/skills`. Two correct designs, mutually exclusive on the same path.
- **Pattern**: don't fight the guard and don't unlink the config dir. Run the installer with `HOME=$(mktemp -d)` so it writes into a pristine real tree, then move the output to the vendored dir the repo controls and symlink from there. Same shape as the impeccable/ctx7 staging (`mktemp -d`, install, `mv` into `skills-external/`), with HOME as the extra lever. Two conditions make it safe: the command must need nothing else from HOME (checked: manifest + content fetch are unauthenticated, hash-verified), and the moved payload must be self-contained.
- **Also**: read the npm tarball, not the vendor's web page. 21st.dev's `/mcp` and `/llms.txt` still document the MCP `init --client` flow with an API key; the package README states the CLI supersedes it. `curl registry.npmjs.org/<pkg>` + untar + read `README.md`/`dist` answered every question (commands, exit codes, where files land) that the site got wrong.
- **Future application**: any vendor installer that writes into `~/.claude`, `~/.config` or `~/.agents` on this machine. Probe first with a fake HOME containing the symlink, before wiring it into `install-plugins.sh` — the failure is instant and unambiguous.
- **Reference**: [[BDR-093]], `install-plugins.sh` Step 8.7, `update-all.sh` 7.4. Links [[LRN-034]] (run the real thing), [[BLK-014]]-class symlink/self-heal issues.

-## LRN-159 — A pin whose payload is fetched at install time rots: pin + fallback, and read the installer's output, not its exit code
- **Date**: 2026-09-22
- **Context**: `impeccable@3.2.0` still on npm, but `skills install` downloads the skill dist at run time and that release's zip is gone → "Download failed: invalid zip data". Strict pin = `make plugin` fails forever, prints "run it yourself". Second layer: once a copy exists, same CLI exits 0 on the same failure ("Could not check for skill updates … Existing skills were left unchanged"), indistinguishable by rc, by SKILL.md version or by mtime/sha from "Skills are up to date".
- **Pattern**: two classes of npm pin. (a) self-contained package → pin freezes behaviour, rc is truth. (b) package that fetches its payload at install time (impeccable, ctx7, `skills add` style) → pin freezes only the fetcher; payload can vanish or drift. For (b): pin + `@latest` fallback + loud "bump the lock" warn, never pin-or-die. And when the tool has an "already installed" branch, capture stdout+stderr and match the failure text; rc and before/after compare both read "unchanged" for a no-op AND for a swallowed failure.
- **Future application**: any `install-plugins.sh` step whose pinned tool downloads something at install time. Probe both HOME states (clean, copy present) before trusting rc. Cheap recipe: sandbox HOME with the repo-shaped symlinks, pinned install twice, then the rotted pin; diff rc + output + `stat`/`sha256sum` of the landed file.

-## LRN-160 — Prose guardrails are judgment, not boundary: a well-argued brief walks a sub-agent through them
- **Date**: 2026-09-22
- **Context**: 2026-09-21 00:21, old server. Reviewer sub-agent (opus, atlast SDD task 26) briefed by the orchestrator: "Tracing lftp semantics against a scratch tree of your own making, outside the repository, is allowed". It ran `mirror --reverse --delete` against a local `file://` tree; target resolved to a real path; `mirror --delete` = `rm -r` on target dirs absent from source, `--exclude` ignored. 90 s: home, `~/.claude`, `/tmp` outputs, NAS (`uid=1000`), 15 Gitea repos (Gitea ran as bchanot = uid 1000, no Docker bridge needed). Reviewer's next Bash rc 1 with its output file gone, then API "Not logged in" (credentials wiped). Config of the day already had hard_deny "deploy to provider" + soft_deny `rsync --delete`: neither names lftp nor a local trace. 4 days of faunosteo never pushed; Gitea on the same disk.
- **Pattern**: (a) an LLM classifier reads intent; the orchestrator's brief IS the sub-agent's user voice, so a reasoned authorization passes. Only static deny rules (resolve first, inherited by sub-agents, per-segment on `&&`) and OS rights are boundaries. (b) "Trace what it would do" is execution; a scratch target from a variable is one unset var away from `/`. (c) The event deletes its own evidence when the agent's uid owns the logs, the config and the transcripts. (d) A remote backs up only what it holds: push at branch creation and at every commit, from a hook, not from discipline. (e) `git merge` fires post-merge, not post-commit.
- **Future application**: any new destructive capability → static deny first, prose second, doctrine third. Any orchestrator brief → never "X is allowed outside the repo". Sub-agent tools: report-only agents trace by reading. Probe a guard with the real sub-agent path (auto mode inherited), not the main session.

-## LRN-161 — `git branch -d` guards against the UPSTREAM once one is set: auto-push turns it into a no-op guard
- **Date**: 2026-09-24
- **Context**: audit of `_gitflow_delete` for the user rule "never delete unmerged". git-branch(1): `-d` requires the branch merged into its upstream if set, else into HEAD; when merged to upstream but not HEAD it only WARNS. [[BDR-095]] made `start` push `-u origin` and post-commit keeps origin/<br> == <br> → `-d` always succeeds. T22a: unmerged feature, upstream in sync, `git branch -q -d` rc 0, branch gone.
- **Pattern**: (a) a safety check whose reference point is configurable changes meaning when config moves elsewhere — auto-push broke `-d` with zero diff in the delete code. Verify "merged" explicitly against the NAMED base: `git merge-base --is-ancestor <br> <base>`. (b) probing a guardrail inline gets blocked BY the guardrail: deny strings (`core.hooksPath`, `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=`, `rm -rf "$VAR"`, `branch -D develop`) are matched in the command text, heredocs included → 4 denials this session. Probe = a test in the suite (file, run via `make test`), the TDD path anyway; file content via the Write tool, command line clean. (c) `reference-transaction` hook: line `<old> <new> <ref>` in `prepared`; `branch -d` passes an all-zero old oid ("force" semantics) → ref NAME + all-zero NEW is the only reliable deletion signal; a merged check cannot live there.
- **Future application**: any change to upstream/push config → re-read every `-d`, `--ff-only`, `@{u}`-relative guard. New destructive capability → static deny + mechanical check + prose, in that order ([[LRN-160]]). Guardrail probes → test file, never inline; a denied probe is the guard working, not a bug to route around.

-## LRN-162 — graphify measured: free AST map, paid semantic pass, 2-3k tokens per query, noise from `.claude/`
- **Date**: 2026-09-24
- **Context**: user asked whether graphify saves context ("agents re-read the whole codebase per feature"). Built the graph of a scratch copy of robin_petier (PHP, 295 files) with the CLI only: `graphify update .` (no skill pipeline, no LLM).
- **Pattern**: (a) code-only build 2.3 s, 0 tokens, 3141 nodes / 7241 edges / 199 communities; hubs correct without any LLM (Auth, Database, Router, PDO, PHPMailer). Incremental update 1.9 s. `graphify-out/` = 8 MB (graph.json 4.4 + graph.html 3.5) → gitignore it. (b) one `graphify query` ≈ 2000-3000 tokens (default budget 2000, over-budget answers spill; truncation at 70/245 nodes on broad questions) = the price of two file reads; it maps (name, file:line), it does not replace reading the file you edit. Value = localisation, not editing. (c) it indexed `.claude/` (contracts, PROCEDURE.md, registries): an "authentication" query surfaced a mobile-nav contract → `.graphifyignore` (`.claude/`, `docs/superpowers/`; gitignore semantics, can only exclude more). (d) 13 `.sql` files contributed nothing: `tree_sitter_sql` missing → `pipx inject graphifyy "graphifyy[sql]"`. (e) `update` refuses to write a graph with FEWER nodes unless `--force`/`GRAPHIFY_FORCE=1` → after a refactor that deletes code, an automated update goes stale silently. (f) `graphify hook install` targets the repo's hooks dir; under our global `core.hooksPath` it is inert → our generated post-commit hook is the only integration point. (g) `graphify claude install` = PreToolUse nudges on every Read/Glob + CLAUDE.md rewrite — the context tax itself. (h) the semantic pass (docs/papers) runs on the host agent = session tokens; code-only stays free.
- **Future application**: measure a "context saver" before adopting it — build time, artifact size, tokens per use, noise sources. Threshold rule [[BDR-097]]: propose from 200 tracked code files, never below. Pilot recipe when the user says go: `graphify update .` + `.graphifyignore` + gitignore `graphify-out/` + `GRAPHIFY_FORCE=1 graphify update .` in the post-commit hook, guarded by `[ -f graphify-out/graph.json ]`.

-## LRN-163 — VS Code terminal instrumentation is per-terminal and unpredictable: pre-flight the pty before attaching
- **Date**: 2026-09-24 (merge of [[LRN-147]] + [[LRN-148]], both 2026-09-03)
- **Context**: notify-attention over Remote-SSH. Incident 1: re-attach from a RESTORED terminal → bell OK, toast dead; probe on that pty: OSC 777 unique + repeated + OSC 9 all silent, BEL rang ⇒ bytes arrive, ext not hooked to that terminal. LRN-147 blamed `terminal.integrated.enablePersistentSessions` (terminals restored BEFORE lazy ext activation). Incident 2, same day, refuted that as sole cause: two terminals, SAME window, pts/3 (born 01:58:33) instrumented, pts/7 (born 01:59:29, LATER) deaf; ext GLOBAL (marketplace Enable/Disable only), shells identical on every server-side measurable (`VSCODE_INJECTION=1`, TERM, TERM_PROGRAM, same `--init-file`). Trigger NOT identified.
- **Pattern**: `wenbopan.vscode-terminal-osc-notifier` instruments a terminal only if it exists AFTER ext activation, and can still silently skip a later one. Treat instrumentation as a per-terminal property that fails for unknown reasons. Pre-flight before committing a long-lived session: `printf '\a\a\033]777;notify;NEUF;test\033\\'` typed IN that terminal. Toast → instrumented, attach. Bell only → deaf, open another. 5 s, replaces an hour of pty archaeology.
- **Recovery**: deaf terminal never repairs. Fresh terminal, pre-flight, `dtach -a ~/.dtach/<session>`; dtach broadcasts, old client may stay, session never at risk. Client setting `"terminal.integrated.enablePersistentSessions": false` removes the restored-terminal case, not the unknown one.
- **Diagnostic split (holds)**: bell alive + toast dead = terminal instrumentation. Toast alive + bell dead = client audio ([[BLK-020]] fault B). Neither = bytes never arrive. Check which channel survives first.
- **Future application**: verify instrumentation on the ACTUAL attached pty after every restart; never assume yesterday's terminal. Do NOT assert the born-before-activation cause as established — it fits the first incident, not the second; unknown trigger is the honest state.

-## LRN-164 — one fixed occurrence ≠ pattern closed: grep the whole surface, add a guard with teeth
- **Date**: 2026-09-24 (merge of [[LRN-106]] 2026-07-06 + [[LRN-113]] 2026-07-08)
- **Pattern**: fixer greps the reported line, fixes it, stops; twins survive one file or one agent over. job3-B1: `blockers-snapshot.md` fixture frozen, T2 repointed, "B1 UNBLOCKED", suite 20/20 GREEN — job4, same day, found T3 and T5 in the SAME FILE still reading live `$MEM/decisions.md`. Job1-9 review found 4 more: trailer stripped from commit-changer only (twins bugfixer/feater/hotfixer); YAML quoted elsewhere, seo/security-auditor left broken; attribution scrubbed on 3 skills, geo-analyzer missed; gitleaks added to the hook generator, installed hook not regenerated.
- **Why**: "suite green" + "named finding fixed" don't imply "no other instance of the same root cause survives nearby." Nothing enumerates the pattern across the full surface at commit time; an adversarial review catches the twins later.
- **Fix**: every pattern-fix ends with (1) a whole-surface grep proving zero residue (agents/ lib/ hooks/ templates/ skills/), (2) a deterministic make-test guard that REDs if any occurrence returns. Shipped `lib/tests/run-review-guards.sh`: G1 trailer, G2 false attribution, G3 strict-YAML, G4 reconcile hermeticity, G5 hook-drift, teeth-verified (planted violation REDs). job4 closure: T3/T5 repointed at `decisions-snapshot.md`, `$MEM` deleted, `grep -c '$MEM' == 0` gate.
- **Future application**: after fixing one instance of a generic finding, grep the WHOLE FILE and the whole surface class before declaring the class closed; add or extend a review-guard with teeth.

-## LRN-165 — a read-only sub-agent mandate constrains files, not tools: name the banned commands, ban copying secret values
- **Date**: 2026-09-24 (merge of [[LRN-105]] 2026-07-06 + [[LRN-107]] 2026-07-07)
- **Pattern**: "read-only" frames FILES; the model does not map it onto every tool call. (a) job3 docs-drift explorer (Bash + Read/Grep, "audit BODIES — do NOT modify any file") ran `graphify .` to check CLI behavior — a real build, stray `graphify-out/` at repo root. The prompt never named the command class to avoid; running the subject's own CLI read as investigation. Fixed only by a mid-run main-session correction. (b) job6 explorer under an explicit no-execute mandate copied the plaintext `MAGIC_API_KEY` into its own scratch file: copying a value into a NEW file mutates nothing that existed, so it passes the "don't mutate" mental model while creating a fresh copy of the secret ([[BDR-026]] class). Harness flagged it, main session redacted, contained to the scratchpad.
- **Future application**: any sub-agent dispatch framed read-only / audit / verify that grants Bash → explicitly ban executing the subject-under-test's CLI/build/generator and name the safe alternative in the same sentence (read installed source, grep docs). Any mandate touching config or env files → explicitly ban copying a secret's VALUE into output or scratch: "reference by name/location, never paste the value"; filter env fields (`jq 'del(.. | .env?)'`) over raw `cat`. Don't rely on the word "read-only" alone.

-## LRN-166 — structure and census locks are fixed single-line strings: a prose rewrap reds them with zero doctrine lost
- **Date**: 2026-09-24 (merge of [[LRN-142]] 2026-08-24 + [[LRN-144]] 2026-08-26)
- **Context**: contract-gates ([[BDR-083]]): editing lib/verify-secure-loop.md rewrapped 5 locked phrases across line breaks ("Max 3 conformity iterations", "Max 3 security iterations", "re-verify the REQUEST first", "always re-checked BEFORE security", "one verifier dispatch + one security dispatch") → loops-light.test.sh 30 pass / 5 fail, ZERO doctrine dropped. darwin 2026-08-26: hotfix RULES rewrap split "No verifier is dispatched at hotfix weight" → same lock RED, caught post-edit by make test.
- **Pattern**: lib/tests/*.test.sh lock sentences verbatim, single-line. Locks cannot distinguish "clause deleted" from "clause rewrapped"; that conservative bias is correct — fuzzy matching would miss real deletions.
- **Rule**: before editing prose under locks, grep lib/tests/ for the lock strings in the touched region, then re-flow AROUND them — each locked phrase stays on one unbroken line. Fix the DOC, not the lock, unless the doctrine genuinely changed. Run make test BEFORE dispatching judges, not after.

-## LRN-167 — a release/develop fork strands CODE on develop: a "resolved" blocker or a parallel-merged feature can miss its fix
- **Date**: 2026-09-24 (merge of [[LRN-116]] + [[LRN-117]], release/1.0.0 review, 2026-07)
- **Pattern**: cutting release/1.0.0 while develop moved on, RC-branch fixes landed ONLY on release: rtk install bridge `e58037c`, find-skills drop `095d881`, make-update TTY guard `a1093ca`, rtk update-path guard `4c5e862`, SC1091 lint `e65796f`. Live-broken on develop for the whole fork (rtk compression dead, ~460K tokens/30d; `make update` dies non-interactively). BLK-016 read "resolved via e58037c" and backfilled cleanly into develop while the fix was absent there: a resolved status is a claim about CODE state on the target branch, safe only for the TEXT.
- **Why it hides**: registry-sequence gaps (missing LRN/BLK/EVAL ids) are easy to detect; orphaned CODE has no sequence. A feature parallel-merged to both branches while its RC fix commit is never back-merged trips nothing.
- **Fix**: before back-merging a resolved blocker, grep the target for the fix's code signature — e58037c ported to develop first, THEN BLK-016 backfilled. At release-finish / in /reconcile, list `develop..release/*` commits touching functional files (exclude merges, `.claude/**`, version.txt/CHANGELOG) for back-merge review. Advisory, NOT a hard make-test gate — cherry-picks land with new SHAs so the source commit stays in the range; automatic "already-ported?" equivalence is unreliable. Backlogged.
- **Future application**: any long-lived fork → audit CODE divergence, not only declared/registry state ([[LRN-034]] narrated ≠ ground truth, applied to branches). `git cherry` before deleting a divergent branch ([[LRN-129]]).

-## LRN-168 — a relayed claim is not a fact: WebSearch consensus and sub-agent summaries both need a primary source or a live test
- **Date**: 2026-09-24 (merge of [[LRN-131]] + [[LRN-132]], both 2026-07-17)
- **Pattern**: plausible RECOMBINATION is the failure mode — what a model half-remembering a search produces, and what a sub-agent relays. "Cross-check via WebSearch" LAUNDERS blog consensus instead of catching it. Treat every relayed finding as a claim to verify against a primary source or a live test. A statistic reaches a client only as `<claim> — <source, year, venue|vendor> — measured: <what the source ACTUALLY measured> — <link>`; the `measured:` field catches the error.
- **Context**: seo/geo 2026-07-17. "VSI (Visual Stability Index) — new 2026 Core Web Vital" sat in seo-analyzer as a threshold; it does NOT exist — absent from the CrUX API metric list AND web.dev, 10 SEO blogs cross-cited it into consensus. EVERY stat in agents/resources/ was real but grafted onto the wrong subject (Aggarwal 40% = ALL methods; AccuraCast 58.9% = Person-schema PREVALENCE pinned on QAPage lift, meaning inverted; LLMrefs 3x = brand-mentions-vs-backlinks pinned on freshness decay). 7 sub-agent claims disproven in one session: "Off-page has ZERO data" (brand mentions ARE gathered, STEP 6); "the stats drive axis weights" (no citations); "GSC Links API is available" (endpoint doesn't exist); "SPA §0 flag compensates" (never existed); "X/Twitter returns 403" (200, live-tested); Common Crawl "nearest free source" (17.3 GB dead end); the whole opening inventory behind the 20-point plan. The same error reproduced 3× while WRITING the fixes; contact with the REAL corrected it every time — sitemap, repo, curl, primary doc.
- **Future application**: an API's metric list (developer.chrome.com/docs/crux) is decisive: a metric the API can't return is one you can't score. Measure-first before building on a relayed summary; never re-read the spec as verification. Corroborates [[LRN-074]] (watch the RED go red), [[LRN-034]] (narrated ≠ ground truth).

-## LRN-169 — a coherence audit is cheap when parallel and read-only, and its findings are claims: spot-check, then fix every citer
- **Date**: 2026-09-24
- **Context**: C2 audit of CLAUDE.global.md + 31 own skills + rules + doctrine libs (~9k lines). Three `Plan` agents (read-only tool set) in parallel, one brief each: definition of "in tension" (contradiction / ambiguity / stale ref verified by ls-grep), fixed output shape, explicit bans (no skill/CLI/hook runs, no edits). ~500k sub-agent tokens, 11 min wall. 39 raw pairs, 30 unique; 4 heaviest re-verified by grep before presenting, all held.
- **Pattern**: (a) the two dominant defect classes were MY same-day partial fixes (200-file graphify rule landed in advisor+doctrine, not in the two orchestrators that build; density pass renamed a heading 5 skills cited; a routing line kept "deploy → ship" with /deploy existing) and a 2-day-old staleness wave (BDR-095 auto-push made 5 skills' push text false, global hooks broke `gitflow init` on existing repos). Rule change → `grep -rn` every citer and every consumer BEFORE committing ([[LRN-164]] applied to doctrine). (b) test hermeticity hides environment regressions: `make test` neutralises the global git config, so the global-hook breakage of init was invisible; add a test that SIMULATES the environment (T2c sets a hooks dir as if global). (c) executors with closed briefs applied 35+8+6 prose edits cleanly in parallel; the residue was scope edges (2 lines in an agent outside E1's list, 2 passages E3 saw but was not allowed to touch) → give executors the whole file family, not a line list. (d) one executor routed around the static deny on `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=` by writing a wrapper script to run a test: harmless here, but a sub-agent WILL work around a guardrail when the brief asks for a result the guardrail blocks — brief "if a guard denies a command, report and stop" explicitly ([[LRN-160]] class). (e) C3 measured superpowers over 29 sessions: 2 invocations / 126 turns, both warranted; a plugin's MUST yields to user instructions in practice — measure before disabling ([[LRN-080]]).
- **Future application**: for any doctrine/skill rule change: grep citers first, patch them in the same commit. Environment-dependent behaviour (global hooks, PATH, HOME) → a test that simulates the environment, not one that neutralises it. Sub-agent briefs → "denied by a guard = stop and report", never "find a way". Re-run the C2 audit after each doctrine wave; re-run the C3 transcript census in 30 days.
- **Reference**: [[BDR-099]], `lib/gitflow-test.sh` T2c, transcript census script (session scratch, re-creatable: parse `~/.claude/projects/*/*.jsonl`, Skill tool_use with `superpowers:` prefix, preceding user text).

-## LRN-170 — "count == 0" ≠ "all on" when default state is "nothing installed": verify a fast-path premise on the live tree
- **Date**: 2026-09-25
- **Context**: plan r1 for [[BDR-101]] kept `cmd_current` fast path "0 parked gstack ⇒ all gstack enabled ⇒ no profile set". Correctness challenger `ls`-ed live tree: 0 parked AND 0 linked — gstack OFF by default since [[BDR-030]]. Fast path fired after `reset`, told user to run command just run. Plan inherited pre-BDR-030 premise from code comment. Same family as [[EVAL-002]] anomaly (1). Session banner even said gstack OFF.
- **Pattern**: sentinel derived from ABSENCE (count 0, no diff, empty dir) ambiguous whenever default state is also absence. Before building on such fast path: check live default state (one `ls`/`find`), or key on explicit signal (here: cache written by every set/apply/reset).
- **Where applicable**: status/current/detect commands; "is X applied?" checks in installers; any "nothing parked/disabled ⇒ default" branch; plan premises copied from stale comments.
- **How to detect early**: list state the sentinel summarises on fresh tree; design-time comment older than last behaviour change (BDR-030 here) = suspect premise.
- **Cost when missed**: user-facing lie + destructive hint (`run: profile reset` right after reset). Would have shipped without challenge round.

-## LRN-171 — sub-agent sandbox: grep shim returns EMPTY inside `$(...)` for patterns holding literal `$VAR` — oracles pin `command grep` / `/usr/bin/grep`
- **Date**: 2026-09-25
- **Context**: contract criterion 12 CHECK captured `grep -n 'bash "$REPO/link.sh"' install-plugins.sh | head -1 | cut -d: -f1` in `$(...)`. Feater executor: intermittently empty. Verifier: reproducibly empty, same bare command found line; both fell back to `command grep` / direct greps. Main-session `gates.sh run` passed same CHECK (no shim there). Not reproduced in main loop — recorded as observed; cause = rtk grep rewrite shim (ugrep) in sub-agent sandbox, [[LRN-074]] family (system grep ≠ GNU grep).
- **Pattern**: oracles + test assertions portable across main shell / sub-agent shells pin `/usr/bin/grep` or `command grep`; avoid `$VAR` literals mid-pattern (`-F` or `--`).
- **Where applicable**: contract `CHECK:` lines run by executors/verifiers; hermetic test greps; any hook riding on grep output.
- **Reference**: contract `2026-09-25-default-profile-full-1254` criterion 12; verifier + executor reports 2026-09-25. Links [[LRN-074]] [[BDR-101]].
-
-## LRN-172 — TF-IDF cosine on a 2-doc corpus is identically 0: similarity self-tests need N ≥ 4, a same-corpus positive control and a sensitivity re-run
- **Context**: A3 executor wrote a "distinct pair passes" fixture as a bare 2-doc corpus, documented the 0.00 as "the point being proven". Fresh verifier proved a near-duplicate pair also scores 0.00 at N=2: idf = log(N/df) = 0 for shared terms, unique terms never meet. Executor self-report "all markers printed" was true; the test was vacuous anyway.
- **Fix shape**: one N=4 corpus: near-dup control 0.90 → FAIL, distinct pair 0.00 → silent, then swap one doc for a near-copy → 0.62 WARN appears. Marker printed only when all three hold.
- **Apply**: any fixture for a corpus-normalised statistic asserts both directions in one corpus; "passes on a trivial corpus" proves nothing; markers prove the oracle, not the intent → keep the blind verifier ([[BDR-102]] [[EVAL-032]]).
-
-## LRN-173 — contract oracles written from memory failed twice: run the CHECK on the precedent files first, census greps via `git grep`, `EVIDENCE: pending` mandatory
- **Context**: same run, two orchestrator oracle bugs. (1) "≤ 80 chars" over the whole file: rules/web-building.md line 2 (`paths:` frontmatter) is already 110 chars, so the criterion contradicted the precedent it named; executor returned NEED-DECISION instead of bending. (2) emil-citers census with `grep -rl` hit gitignored `install-*.log` at the repo root; `git grep -l` (tracked only) is the right census tool. (3) gates.sh `run` errors `runnable but has no EVIDENCE: line` unless each criterion carries `EVIDENCE: pending`.
- **Apply**: before shipping a CHECK, run it against the files it claims to mirror; census oracles = `git grep`; contract skeleton carries `EVIDENCE: pending` per criterion (check /feat's template writes it). Oracle fixes are orchestrator-owned, never a re-dispatch ([[BDR-102]]).
-
-## LRN-174 — a coverage census greps plugin data files too; a registry sample is not the catalog
- **Context**: I told the user Astro View Transitions had zero local mentions. ui-ux-pro-max's `data/stacks/astro.csv` rows 28-31 carry ClientRouter, `transition:name`, no-JS fallback; `motion.csv` carries GSAP pin/scrub, SplitText, parallax. My grep covered SKILL.md prose and archetypes, not the plugin's CSV search DB. Same day: the ui-skills registry showed 11 MengTo skills; the repo tree has 88 web-design skills, and the substantive ones were outside the sample.
- **Apply**: census = `grep -rl` over the plugin cache including data dirs, then say "row in a search DB" vs "workflow"; evaluating an upstream = `git/trees?recursive=1` first, sample never. Correct the user the moment the miss is found ([[BDR-104]]).
-
-## LRN-175 — the skill listing has a char budget; pruning under it buys routing, not context
- **Context**: 150 skills, 53.5k chars of descriptions, but the harness listed ~19k with a description and 78 name-only (profile, seo, tour, all ui-ux-pro-max, 14/15 superpowers, brightdata, synced). Budget ≈1 % of context (`SLASH_COMMAND_TOOL_CHAR_BUDGET`, community-documented), least-invoked skills lose theirs first. doctor.sh said 34 skills / 3.4k t: `find -maxdepth 2` without `-L` skipped every symlinked skill, `grep '^description:' | head -1` counted 0 for block scalars.
- **Apply**: removing skills below the cap frees no context (the cap refills); the gain is descriptions back for kept skills + no accidental 50-100 KB broken body load (autoplan = 25k t to fail). Real context levers = session-start injections (superpowers 3.6 KB) and name-only lines. Measure with the census parser through symlinks ([[BDR-105]]).
-
-## LRN-176 — a multi-line CHECK is silently truncated by gates.sh
- **Context**: four `CHECK: python3 - <<'PY' … PY` oracles parsed as one line each; the ledger validated (RUNNABLE 13/18), GATE 0 ran `python3 -` on an empty heredoc → rc 0, no marker → NOT-MET ×4 while every executor had self-checked green. Cause: `_set_attr` takes the rest of the `CHECK:` line only; the body lines are criterion prose.
- **Apply**: one line per CHECK; anything longer lives in `<contract>.oracles/c<n>.py` next to the contract (committed with it) and the CHECK calls the file. Follow-up: gates.sh could refuse a CHECK containing `<<`. Sibling of [[LRN-173]] (run the CHECK on precedent files first).
-
-## LRN-177 — the gstack helper-tree class: one lib, no SKILL.md exposed, dst never a symlink
- **Context**: make-pdf MAKE_PDF_NOT_AVAILABLE, diagram BUNDLE_MISSING, careful/guard/freeze hooks exit 127, cso and plan-*-review unable to read `sections/` — all one class: skills hardcode `~/.claude/skills/gstack/<path>`, link.sh (and two copies in install-plugins.sh / update-all.sh) linked only `bin` and `browse/dist`. Traps found by the challengers: gstack `./setup` plants `~/.claude/skills/gstack -> submodule` when absent (a helper writing into dst then nests links inside the submodule); `browser-skills/`, `openclaw/`, `node_modules/` are non-skill dirs holding nested SKILL.md (a whole-dir link would double-list skills); `profile.sh apply` only enables, `set`/`reset` park.
- **Apply**: `lib/gstack-links.sh` is the single writer (skill dirs → children minus SKILL.md; non-skill dirs skipped when they hold a SKILL.md; `.git*`/`node_modules` by name; dst symlink removed, dst inside src refused); after a profile edit run `set full`, never `apply`; a gstack skill "failing" → check the census oracle first ([[BDR-105]]).
-
-## LRN-178 — before a new top-level `source`, grep the fixture `cp` lists
- **Context**: twice in one day. E1b's `source gstack-removed.sh` in profile.sh/toggle-external.sh needed a `cp` line in three suites (profile-default, profile-set-managed, toggle-external-repo-resolution) — caught by the confirmation challenger, fixed in scope. My 21st helper plan would have added a second top-level `source` to toggle-external.sh with no fixture update → four suites red under `set -euo pipefail`; two challengers flagged it as BLOCKER, the helper was dropped.
- **Apply**: `grep -n "cp .*lib/<file>" lib/tests/*.sh` before adding a `source` to a lib; either widen every fixture copy in the same change or source lazily inside the one branch that needs it. Prefer the inline predicate when only one caller needs the new semantics ([[BDR-105]]).
-
-## LRN-179 — skill `effort:` shifts the main loop for the rest of the turn, interactive only
- **Context**: effort-tiering spike 2026-09-28, Claude Code 2.1.283, Fable 5.1. Probes = `$CLAUDE_EFFORT` in Bash + transcript `effort` field per request. User-typed `/probe-low` → whole turn `low`. Skill-tool load in interactive session → `max` then `xhigh`, last loaded wins, both directions; first request after the switch read 206,996 cached tokens, wrote 1,164 (cache kept). Three `-p` runs: neither `effort:` nor `model:` skill frontmatter applied via Skill tool. Agent pin honoured (impeccable `medium`), unpinned built-in on sonnet inherited `xhigh`. Docs agent claimed "ultrathink keyword does not exist": wrong, docs = in-context nudge, API effort unchanged. Harness claims get verified against the harness ([[LRN-046]]).
- **Apply**: main-loop effort per phase = `Skill(effort-<level>)` on the main loop, never inside a dispatched agent; headless runs stay at session level; keep `CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL` unset (beats every frontmatter). Spec `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-28-effort-tiering-design.md`.
-
-## LRN-180 — Skill-tool effort override needs a paired tool call; a lone Skill call is a no-op (2.1.283)
- **Context**: effort-tiering smoke. Six lone `Skill(effort-*)` / probe loads left `$CLAUDE_EFFORT` unchanged; every load issued in the same assistant message as another tool call applied, and the paired Bash already saw the new level. Re-loading an already-loaded shifter re-applies (text deduped: "already loaded above"). Final review: `brainstorming` / `writing-plans` loaded alone by ship-feature and init-project → their vendored xhigh pin inert. Amends [[LRN-179]].
- **Apply**: `Skill(effort-<level>)` always travels with the step's first tool call, shift first; pair a downward shift with a pinned executor or a Read/Bash, never with a built-in judgment dispatch; before any built-in judgment dispatch, pair the own-level shift with it; skills Claude loads alone do not apply their pin → re-assert with a paired shift at the resumed planning step ([[BDR-107]]).
-
-## LRN-181 — Stacked skills share one effort level; a lone load applies none
- **Context**: design toolchain loads 5-8 skills in one build. Skill `effort:` frontmatter = last loaded wins, both directions ([[LRN-179]]). Two levels inside the stack → effort depends on load order, invisible. Plus [[LRN-180]]: a Skill call Claude issues alone is a no-op.
- **Apply**: one level per stack (`lib/effort-pins.txt` design section, census `stack_levels` lock, site-motion frontmatter matches); doctrine "load the stack paired with the first Read of the target file"; new vendored design skill → copy the stack level. [[BDR-108]]
-
-## LRN-182 — Effort baselines are generation-bound; model aliases move silently
- **Context**: transcripts of the last weeks show `sonnet` → claude-sonnet-5 (3069 msgs) then claude-sonnet-5-5 (recent), `opus` → opus-5 then opus-5-5, `fable` → fable-5 then fable-5-1. API reference: Sonnet 5.5 recalibrated effort levels ("start at medium for agentic coding"). [[EVAL-036]] A/B ran on one generation.
- **Apply**: after an alias moves (new model in a tier) re-run `python3 lib/effort-audit.py` and re-read the pins; write the generation next to any effort figure; keep aliases (latest = cheapest or same price, never pin a version for a measurement). [[BDR-108]]

-## 2026-09-27 — case 5 of the 6-repo review: OmniRoute rejected (chore/six-repo-review-notes)
-Gateway to 357 providers via `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` → localhost:20128; needs provider
-API keys, a Claude Pro/Max subscription cannot go through it. No gap here: Claude-only
-workflow on subscription, codex second opinion already via gstack `codex` CLI, rtk
-native, caveman purged. Against: sits in the path of every prompt with 96 deps and
-a fail-open guardrail design (doctrine says fail closed); default JWT secret
-`omniroute-default-secret-change-me` = admin bypass if unchanged; npm 3.8.5 blocked
-by Socket.dev (May 2026, malware indicators), two real vulns closed in 3.8.6; JA3/JA4
-TLS fingerprint impersonation + 40 pooled free-tier keys = provider-ToS risk; no

-## 2026-09-27 — case 4 of the 6-repo review: reticle parked with a pilot recipe (chore/six-repo-review-notes)
-User go "parquer avec la recette". Real gap (runtime store state, structured
-verdicts with file:line, replayable flows, CI `gate --since`), no current project
-needs it; cost = per-project build instrumentation in the client repo, ~4.9k
-tokens of MCP schemas per session, PostHog telemetry on by default, a skill that
-auto-runs `init` against "ask, don't guess". Trigger: first app-type project
-(client state, forms, auth, cart).
- [ ] P1 external opt-in in lib/toggle-external.sh + profiles (off by default,

-      seen 2026-09-27), never `@latest`.
- [ ] P2 local wrapper skill replacing theirs: `npx @reticlehq/server init
-      --dry-run` shown to the user, never run by the agent (runbook doctrine);
-      MCP env `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` `RETICLE_TELEMETRY=0`; verify only after the
-      user ran init.
- [ ] P3 pilot on staging only (secret redaction is name-based); flows

-## 2026-09-24 — branch deletion guard: never main/develop, never unmerged (feature/branch-delete-guard)
-User rule (after the 21/09 wipe, same family as BDR-095): auto-delete of a branch
-is accepted ONLY once it is merged into develop or main; main and develop are
-never deleted. Finding that motivates it: since BDR-095 `start` pushes `-u origin`,
-so `git branch -d` now checks "merged into its UPSTREAM" (origin/<br>, always in
-sync via post-commit) instead of "merged into HEAD" — its safety valve is dead.
-`_gitflow_delete` only survived because finish chains it after a successful merge.
- [x] D1 `lib/gitflow-test.sh` T22 (lib): `-d` alone deletes an unmerged branch
-      whose upstream is in sync (premise proof); `gitflow_delete` refuses
-      main/develop (rc 6) and an unmerged branch (rc 5), deletes a merged one;
-      `gitflow_merged_into_base` predicate; T23 (hook): `git branch -D
-      develop|main`, `update-ref -d`, `branch -m develop` all BLOCKED from a
-      working branch; a merged feature deletes fine; `gitflow.protect false`
-      opt-out; `commit`/`checkout` unaffected; T19d/T20 iterate the 4 hooks.
- [x] D2 `lib/gitflow.sh`: `gitflow_merged_into_base <br>` (ancestor of develop
-      OR main, fail closed when neither exists); `gitflow_delete` = protected
-      refusal + merged check + `git branch -d`; CLI verbs `delete <br>`,
-      `merged <br>`, `hooks`; 4th hook `reference-transaction` (refuses deletion
-      of refs/heads/main|develop in `prepared` state, sh, opt-out
-      gitflow.protect); hook names in one `GITFLOW_HOOKS` array (write, emit,
-      reconcile, T19d, doctor all read it).
- [x] D3 `settings.json`: static deny `git branch -d|--delete|-dr|-rd *`,
-      `git branch -m|-M main|develop *`; hard_deny "branch deletion outside
-      `gitflow.sh delete/finish`, any deletion/rename of main/develop, local or
-      remote"; "Disarming" entry covers every hook file; `environment`
-      protected-branches line updated. `guard-bash.test.sh` T8w flips to deny.
-      Leave the user's uncommitted `feedbackDrafts` line out of the commit.
- [x] D4 doctrine: `CLAUDE.global.md` gitflow section (delete only via the lib,

-resolved to a real path, `mirror --delete` did `rm -r` (ignores `--exclude`) on
-everything uid 1000 owned: home, `~/.claude`, NAS (uid=1000), 15 Gitea repos
-(Gitea ran as bchanot). The 17/09 classifier prose (hard_deny "deploy", soft_deny
-`rsync --delete`) named neither lftp nor a local trace; the orchestrator's brief
-authorized the trace; auto mode is inherited by sub-agents. 4 days of faunosteo
-never pushed. User decisions: Claude NEVER deploys (explains only), lftp has no
-use in session; layer A (OS, restic, NAS) and layer B (sandbox + managed
-settings) are the user's; this branch = layer C (config repo) + auto-push.

-## 2026-09-22 — impeccable install repaired: global scope + agents + rotted pin (feature/21st-cli-migration)
-User: `make plugin` never installs impeccable, it just prints "run it
-yourself"; running it by hand needs `--scope=global` to land right, and then
-`/impeccable init` is still required. Three separate defects, all confirmed:
-1. **Pin rotted.** `npx -y impeccable@3.2.0 skills install` → `Download
-   failed: invalid zip data`, rc 1. The CLI fetches its skill dist at install
-   time and that release's artifact is gone. 3.6.1 / 4.0.5 / 4.1.0 all work.
-   That rc 1 is the "run manually" warn the user sees.
-2. **Wrong scope + half the payload dropped.** The step staged
-   `--scope=project` in a tmpdir and `mv`'d only the skill dir, silently
-   discarding the 4 `impeccable-*` subagents the installer also writes.
-   `--scope=global` writes `~/.claude/skills/impeccable` +
-   `~/.claude/agents/impeccable-*.md`, and both are symlinks INTO this repo,
-   so a global install is the repo install. Verified in a sandbox HOME.
-3. **`/impeccable init` never surfaced.** It writes per-project PRODUCT.md
-   (design context the skill reads); it runs in the agent chat, so install
-   can only announce it and the design gate has to check it.
-
- [x] T1 install-plugins.sh Step 8d rewritten: global scope, no staging,
-      pin→latest fallback with a loud bump-the-lock warn, park-aware
-      (profile may hold impeccable in skills-disabled), symlink precondition
-      guard, agent count + skill version reported, init hint printed.
-      Harness-tested against a fake HOME with repo-shaped symlinks: happy
-      path OK, park/restore OK. Caught + fixed there: `find` stops at the
-      `~/.claude/agents` symlink without `-L`, so the agent count read 0
-      while 4 agents were installed.
- [x] T2 update-all.sh impeccable block: same shape. `bash -n` only, NOT
-      run end to end.
- [x] T3 plugins.lock.json: 3.2.0 → 4.1.0 + honest note (pin covers the CLI
-      only; skill dist 4.3.1 and engine 0.1.5 have their own tracks).
- [x] T4 .gitignore: `agents/impeccable-*.md` (machine-owned, tracked dir);
-      drop `skills-external/impeccable/`. link.sh: impeccable out of
-      EXTERNAL_SKILLS (nothing to symlink any more). `git check-ignore`
-      confirms both paths.
- [x] T5 lib/design-gate.md §5: suggest-only PRODUCT.md / `/impeccable init`
-      check, same shape as the §4 animation-library check.
- [x] T6 duplicate project-scope install: already gone at resume (user ran
-      `rm -rf .claude/skills .claude/agents` before restarting).
- [x] T7 CHANGELOG (Added/Changed/Fixed) + BDR-094 + LRN-159 + BLK-021 +
-      journal. `make test` green except the 2 pre-existing gitflow T16a FAILs
-      (gitleaks binary absent on this host), shellcheck clean. Merged into
-      develop 2026-09-22 (33e0899, gitflow finish on user go), pushed.
-
-**Residual, probed and fixed (round 3)**: with a copy already installed a
-rotted pin DOES exit 0 ("Could not check for skill updates: invalid zip data
-… Existing skills were left unchanged"), and so does a genuine rerun of a
-good pin ("Skills are up to date (v4.3.1)"). Both leave SKILL.md
-byte-identical, so a before/after version compare cannot separate them.
-`imp_install` (Step 8d and update-all.sh) now captures the installer output
-and fails on `Download failed|Could not check for skill updates`, whatever
-the exit code. Harness on the extracted step, sandbox HOME, real installer:
-fresh install; rotted pin over a copy → fallback fires; same pin rerun → no
-false warn; parked copy + rotted pin → fallback, then returned to
-skills-disabled/. update-all.sh: `bash -n` + shellcheck only.
-
-OPEN for the user:
- /tmp is a tmpfs with a per-user quota and the dead session's scratchpad
-  holds 5.9 GB of probe HOMEs. Writes to /tmp fail with EDQUOT: the likely
-  cause of the "every command exits 1" shell death (BLK-021). Free it:
-  `rm -rf /tmp/claude-1000/-home-bchanot-Documents-claude/fefd277c-e143-4d51-b589-a566641079b5`
-  (the agent's `rm -rf` under /tmp is denied). This round ran tests and the
-  harness with TMPDIR under ~/.cache.
- `skills/synced/` (4.4 MB, untracked, not ignored): claude.ai's synced
-  skills, written through the ~/.claude/skills symlink. Decide whether to
-  gitignore it; not touched here.
-  → /tmp freed by the user 2026-09-22; skills/synced gitignored 87b2615
-  (reconcile 2026-09-24).

-## 2026-09-22 — 21st: magic MCP → CLI + skills (feature/21st-cli-migration)
-User: "remplacer pour 21st, il n'y a plus besoin de mcp / api, mais juste en
-cli". Upstream confirmed (`@21st-dev/cli` 1.17.1 README): the CLI supersedes
-`@21st-dev/magic`; auth is `21st login` (browser token in `~/.config/21st`),
-no API key; `21st install-skill` = alias of `21st skills install --global`.
-Gates answered by user: 5 design skills in profiles (registry + design-sync
-parked), `make plugin` auto-installs the CLI + offers login on TTY only,
-missing `21st` CLI trips the design gate (magic's old required-manual slot).
-
-Blocker found + solved: `21st skills install --global` REFUSES to write
-through a symlinked path (`assertNoSymlinkComponents`), and `~/.claude/skills`
-IS a symlink → repo/skills. Verified live: "Refusing to access symbolic link
-…/.claude/skills". → install into a staged HOME (mktemp), move each skill to
-`skills-external/21st-*/` (impeccable pattern), symlink from there.
-
- [x] T1 install-plugins.sh STEP 8.7: magic block → 21st CLI (`npm i -g`,
-      pinned via plugins.lock.json) + staged `skills install` →
-      skills-external/21st-*, TTY-gated `21st login`, pack disabled by default.
- [x] T2 lib/toggle-external.sh: managed tool `magic` (mcp) → `21st` (skill
-      pack, glob-derived from skills-external/21st-*), drop load_env.
- [x] T3 profiles + profile.sh: `magic mcp` → 5 externals + `21st cli` in
-      design/web/web-full/full; GATE-BLOCK `21st 21st-ui-build`;
-      MANAGED_EXTERNALS += the 5; MANAGED_MCPS emptied (kept as a live
-      allowlist, mcp type machinery stays generic).
- [x] T4 lib/design-tool-gate.sh + lib/design-gate.md: manual-step hint
-      magic/MAGIC_API_KEY → 21st/`npm i -g` + `21st login`; PATH repair
-      extended to the npm-global bin dir (21st lives in nvm's bin, the
-      existing repair only fires when `claude` itself is unresolvable).
- [x] T5 doctrine + docs: CLAUDE.global.md design toolchain, README (drop the
-      magic callback-injection section + the MCP env-var worked example),
-      .env.example, link.sh MAGIC_API_KEY warning, .gitleaks.toml allowlist,
-      update-all.sh, .gitignore, settings.json (drop 4 mcp__magic__*; the
-      outward-facing verbs landed in autoMode.soft_deny, NOT ask — LRN-153
-      says ask is inert under auto mode).
- [x] T6 lib/tests/profile-set-managed.test.sh retargeted (mcp fixture → 21st
-      external pack), `make test` + shellcheck green.
- [x] T7 CHANGELOG + BDR-093 + LRN-158 + journal. Also cleaned along the way:
-      dead `magic` branches in profile.sh enable/disable_skill,
-      skills/profile/SKILL.md. OPEN for the user: `npm i -g @21st-dev/cli`
-      then `21st login` (`Bash(npm install -g *)` is denied to the agent).
-      Merged into develop 2026-09-22 (33e0899), pushed.
-      → 21st CLI installed (nvm bin; reconcile 2026-09-24); `21st login` state
-      not verifiable here.

-## 2026-09-17 — /deploy hand-back: one-line commands + post-deploy test list (feature/deploy-oneline-tests)
-User: commands in the /deploy checklist arrive broken across lines (cannot
-copy-paste), and the hand-back stops at the deploy steps — wants, after the
-checklist, a list of things to test by hand about THIS delta + suggestions.
-Evidence: zenquality runbook step 3 carries a `\`-continued psql; game runbook
-has 200-350 char command lines the model re-wraps at display (80-char code
-style pressure). Method: writing-skills RED/GREEN on a scratch fixture repo
-(4 fresh agents, skill body as instructions, gate pre-approved).
- [x] D1 RED baseline: 4 runs on the current skill, record wrapped commands
-      + absence of a test list + rationalizations
- [x] D2 SKILL.md: physical-line rule (checklist, bootstrap, learn patch;
-      join legacy `\` continuations at instantiation), post-deploy tests
-      recipe (manual checks + suggestions, derived from the delta), hand-back
-      order checklist → tests → report request; Rules / mistakes / red flags
- [x] D3 templates/deploy/PROCEDURE.md style header + test-prompts.json
- [x] D4 GREEN: re-run 4 fresh agents on the edited skill, compare shape
- [x] D5 CHANGELOG [Unreleased] Changed; report; offer capitalize (EVAL + LRN)
-Milestone 2026-09-17: RED 4/4 (3 sonnet + 1 opus) reproduced the `\`
-continuation verbatim, no re-wrap of 200+ char lines, no test list; GREEN
-4/4 joined the continuation, kept long lines whole, printed the tests block
-in the recipe's shape (grant gap as a Suggestion, never patched). Branch
-feature/deploy-oneline-tests, uncommitted, awaiting user. Registries: EVAL +
-LRN drafts proposed, not written.
-
-## 2026-09-16 — docker + node framed by the classifier (feature/automode-docker-node)
-User: `docker exec -i supabase_db_game psql … -f - < supabase/verify/*.sql | tail`
-must run unprompted under auto mode; same for node/npm/npx when the package
-is declared and effects stay in the cwd; "ajoute du soft deny pour bien le
-cadrer". Findings: `ask` is inert under auto (LRN-146 re-verified on 2.1.273
-with a `node -e` probe; the docs claim otherwise for content-scoped rules);
-the real gate is the built-in `Remote Shell Writes` / `Production Reads`
-classifier rules; a static `Bash(node *)` allow rule is suspended under auto
-(wildcarded interpreter), so `autoMode.allow` prose is the only lever for
-node. User approved the design and the `ask` removal explicitly (S6 override
-for this change, diff reviewed on the branch).
- [x] A1 `settings.json` — drop 4 docker + `node -e` from `ask`; new
-      `autoMode.allow` (`$defaults` + local dev containers + project-local
-      node); 2 `soft_deny` entries (docker data destruction, undeclared
-      node packages); `model` bump committed separately
- [x] A2 `templates/settings/SETTINGS.md` — `autoMode.allow` tier row +
-      why a static interpreter allow rule cannot do it; LRN-146 re-verify note
- [x] A3 CHANGELOG [Unreleased] Changed
- [x] A4 verify (2026-09-16, all green; `critique` printed nothing): `jq`, `claude auto-mode config`,
-      `doctor.sh`, live `docker exec` in game
- [x] A5 registries written 2026-09-17: LRN (doc vs observed `ask` under auto,
-      2.1.273; `autoMode.allow` = exception tier; wildcarded-interpreter
-      allow suspended), BDR-090 addendum
-## 2026-09-16 — ask, don't guess: orchestrators ask about open choices (feature/ask-dont-guess)
-User: the orchestrators (ship-feature, feat, hotfix, bugfix, init-project)
-settle choices they should ask about ("cet icône, plutôt à gauche ou à
-droite ?"), even mid-run. Diagnosis: contract-interview STEP 2 only fires on
-gaps (outcome / scope / constraints), so a taste choice never triggers a
-question; feat:153 and bugfix:165 tell the orchestrator to "make the
-decision HERE" on NEED-DECISION. Decisions (user, 2026-09-15/16): global
-rule changes for all work, hotfix included; classes VISIBLE / PUBLIC NAME /
-SCOPE ask, internal technical choices never. Spec:
-`docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-16-ask-dont-guess-design.md`; plan:
-`docs/superpowers/plans/2026-09-16-ask-dont-guess.md` (9 tasks, lock-first).
- [x] P1 `lib/contract-interview.md` — STEP 2 CLARIFY (pass A gaps, pass B
-      open choices), MID-RUN CLARIFICATION, HOW TO ASK; 9 locks in
-      `contract-verifier.test.sh`
- [x] P2 `CLAUDE.global.md:51-55` — "Ask rather than guess" replaces the
-      one-question rule; bug line reconciled
- [x] P3 `skills/feat/SKILL.md` — pass B at STEP 1, NEED-DECISION routed on class
- [x] P4 `skills/bugfix/SKILL.md` — pass B at STEP 3, NEED-DECISION routed on class
- [x] P5 `skills/hotfix/SKILL.md` — pass B at LOCATE, tagged BLOCKED relayed;
-      lock `loops-light.test.sh:84`
- [x] P6 `skills/ship-feature` STEP 2 + `skills/init-project` contract §/STEP 3
- [x] P7 `agents/interviewer.md` — visible/public/scope item never `(assumed)`
- [x] P8 `agents/{feater,bugfixer,hotfixer}.md` — CLASS tag; 3 locks in `gates.test.sh`
- [x] P9 `make test` green (2026-09-16), CHANGELOG, TODO tick; manual behavioral check still OPEN before merge
- [x] P10 registries written 2026-09-17: BDR (supersedes the one-question rule),
-      LRN (taste is invisible to a gap-only trigger; fresh re-dispatch cost
-      favors plan-time questions)
-
-## 2026-09-15 — align config + deployment on the hand-edited settings.json (feature/automode-config-alignment)
-User edited global `settings.json` by hand: 4 destructive rules moved
-deny→ask (`rsync`, `kill -9`, `killall`, `pkill`), 4 removed from ask
-(`xargs`, `sed`, `cp`, `mv` — coherent with auto mode's Bash-first
-workflow; the `.env`-scoped `cp`/`mv`/`xargs` deny rules still stand),
-and an `autoMode.environment` block added. Two defects found:
-(1) the environment block describes **atlast** (`bin/deploy.sh` lftp/FTP
-to OVH, quote-request data, "no remote configured") but lives in the
-user-scope file symlinked to `~/.claude/settings.json` by `link.sh:21`
-— so every project gets atlast's facts; claude-config itself has a
-Gitea remote, contradicting the block. (2) no `"$defaults"` sentinel,
-so the built-in classifier environment entries are replaced, not
-extended. Third finding: LRN-146 records, verified in session, that
-`ask` rules raise no prompt under `defaultMode: auto` — the deny→ask
-move therefore traded a static block for a classifier decision.
-User decisions (2026-09-15): atlast block → atlast's own
-`settings.local.json`, global block rewritten machine-generic; the 4
-destructive rules → `autoMode.soft_deny` (the section that actually
-binds under auto mode) instead of `ask`.
- [x] T1 global `settings.json` — machine-generic `autoMode.environment`
-      with `$defaults`; new `autoMode.soft_deny` with `$defaults` + the
-      4 destructive rules; drop those 4 from `permissions.ask`
- [x] T2 `/home/bchanot/Documents/atlast/.claude/settings.local.json` —
-      receives the atlast-specific `autoMode.environment` (gitignored,
-      personal scope); verify project-scope `autoMode` is honored
- [x] T3 `templates/settings/SETTINGS.md` — document the `autoMode`
-      block (environment / soft_deny / hard_deny / allow, `$defaults`
-      semantics, `classifyAllShell`) + the "ask ≠ prompt under auto"
-      caveat that makes soft_deny the right tier
- [x] T4 `README.md` — magic-MCP paragraph claims the `ask` tier makes
-      every `mcp__magic__*` call "require a live confirmation and never
-      auto-execute"; false under auto mode per LRN-146. Correct the
-      claim, flag the soft_deny option to the user (don't decide it)
- [x] T5 `doctor.sh` — permissions section is blind to `autoMode`, now a
-      live security surface. Add a check: block present, `$defaults`
-      inherited, no foreign absolute project path hardcoded
- [x] T6a CHANGELOG (Added/Changed/Fixed under [Unreleased])
- [x] T6b registries BDR-090 + LRN-153 + journal — drafted, awaiting user approval
-      → written: BDR-090 + LRN-153 present in the registry body (reconcile 2026-09-24).
- [x] T7 verify: `make test`, `bash doctor.sh`, `shellcheck`
-NOT in scope: the 3 dirty `skills/graphify/*` files (pre-existing,
-unrelated) — never staged.
-
-### Second pass (2026-09-15, user decisions)
-User confirmed the `ask` removals were deliberate (`/permissions`), asked
-for the diff vs develop and for guards where the removals left a hole.
-Answered: writes outside cwd → soft_deny; in-place edits beyond one named
-file → soft_deny; inline interpreters + `xargs` → soft_deny when they
-delete or write outside cwd; hard_deny for secret exfiltration, prod
-deploy, disarming guardrails (history rewrite NOT retained, so a `rebase`
-then an ordinary push stays uncovered); extend the static deny family to
-the `.env` readers; `classifyAllShell` stays false; intent clears a soft
-block for the CURRENT TURN only.
- [x] S1 `permissions.deny` +10 reader rules (sed awk cut tr sort uniq
-      diff od xxd strings vs `.env*`) — 6 of them were in `allow`
- [x] S2 `autoMode.soft_deny` — 7 rules + the intent-scope line
- [x] S3 `autoMode.hard_deny` — 3 rules, "adding a restriction is fine,
-      removing one is not"
- [x] S4 `SETTINGS.md` — tier-choice table + scope-of-intent section
- [x] S5 CHANGELOG — Changed rewritten, new Security block
- [x] S6 CONSEQUENCE confirmed by user 2026-09-15: the hard_deny guardrail rule means I can
-      no longer edit a deny/soft_deny/hard_deny list to REMOVE an entry.
-      Tightening stays allowed. Future permission loosening goes through
-      `/permissions` or the user's own edit.
-
-### Third pass (2026-09-15) — F1-F3 done + graphify untracked
-Worst finding was not the duplication: local `deny` still carried
-`rsync` `kill -9` `killall` `pkill`, the four the user moved OUT of
-global deny. deny wins across sources, so `autoMode.soft_deny` was a
-dead letter in THIS repo. Local `allow` also held `sed *`, `cp *`,
-`python3 -` — an allow rule short-circuits the classifier, punching a
-hole through the same soft_deny rules.
- [x] G1 `skills/graphify/{SKILL.md,references/,.graphify_version}`
-      gitignored + `git rm --cached`. Written by `graphify claude
-      install` since `~/.claude/skills` symlinks to `skills/`; a fresh
-      clone gets them from `make plugin`. `test-prompts.json` is
-      hand-written for darwin, stays tracked. Trade-off documented in
-      CLAUDE.md: an upstream release can now change the skill prompt
-      with no diff to review.
- [x] G2 `.claude/settings.local.json` 14.6 KB -> 6.2 KB. deny + ask
-      dropped whole, allow 185 -> 98 (81 duplicates of the global, 6
-      policy conflicts: `sed *`, `cp *`, `python3 -`,
-      `Read(//home/bchanot/**)`, `WebSearch`, a leftover injection-test
-      payload). Every non-`permissions` key was a verbatim copy of the
-      global, `hooks` included. Backup: `.audit/settings.local.json.bak-*`
-      (gitignored, the file itself is not in git).
-
-### Follow-up found while doing this (fixed in the third pass above)
-`.claude/settings.local.json` (gitignored, 14.6 KB) is a near-complete
-shadow copy of the global `settings.json` at a HIGHER precedence tier:
-185 allow / 30 ask / 106 deny, plus its own `cleanupPeriodDays`,

-Message 3 (answer to the scope question on fix B, after the "654 Mo orphelins"
-premise was proven wrong):
-> Check read-only dans doctor.sh
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
-
-Q: "mettre en latest" — pin Chromium to latest?
-A: Not actionable as asked. Playwright downloads the browser revision its own
-   version pins (1.61.1 → chromium 1228); the CDP client is coupled to that
-   build. "Latest" = track the latest Playwright, which is what BDR-029's bump
-   already does. No change to the pinning mechanism is in scope.
-
-Q: Volet B — purge the orphan Playwright revisions?
-A: Superseded by evidence. `~/.cache/ms-playwright/.links/` registers THREE
-   playwright installs (gstack 1.61.1 → rev 1228; gsd-pi nvm 1.61.0 → 1228;
-   gsd-pi ~/.local 1.63.0 → 1243). Every directory on disk is referenced;
-   zero bytes reclaimable. Playwright already GCs correctly on every
-   `install` (`_deleteStaleBrowsers`, unions across all registered installs).
-   User chose: read-only report in doctor.sh, NO deletion anywhere.
-
-## ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA
-
-1. `lib/gstack-playwright.sh` exists, is source-safe (sourcing prints nothing
-   and runs no side effect), and its verb dispatcher works when executed.
-   CHECK: out=$( . lib/gstack-playwright.sh; echo READY ); [ "$out" = READY ] && bash lib/gstack-playwright.sh 2>&1 | grep -q 'usage:' && echo LIB_OK
-   EXPECT: LIB_OK
-   EVIDENCE: MET exit=0 marker-found :: LIB_OK
-
-2. The bump logic lives ONLY in the lib: `install-plugins.sh` no longer
-   defines `gstack_bump_playwright_if_unsupported`, sources the lib instead,
-   and still calls it BEFORE gstack `./setup` (BDR-029 behavior unchanged:
-   OS-gated, idempotent, non-fatal).
-   CHECK: grep -q '^gstack_bump_playwright_if_unsupported() {' install-plugins.sh && exit 1; grep -q 'lib/gstack-playwright.sh' install-plugins.sh || exit 1; c=$(grep -n 'gstack_bump_playwright_if_unsupported' install-plugins.sh | grep -v ':[[:space:]]*#' | tail -1 | cut -d: -f1); s=$(grep -n '&& \./setup)' install-plugins.sh | head -1 | cut -d: -f1); [ -n "$c" ] && [ -n "$s" ] && [ "$c" -lt "$s" ] && echo EXTRACT_OK
-   EXPECT: EXTRACT_OK
-   EVIDENCE: MET exit=0 marker-found :: EXTRACT_OK
-
-3. `update-all.sh` delegates the gstack submodule update to the lib
-   (`gstack_submodule_update_with_bump`) instead of calling
-   `git submodule update --remote` bare, so the bump is re-applied after every
-   successful update.
-   CHECK: grep -q 'gstack_submodule_update_with_bump' update-all.sh && grep -q 'lib/gstack-playwright.sh' update-all.sh && ! grep -qE '^[[:space:]]*if git submodule update --remote skills-external/gstack' update-all.sh && echo WIRED_OK

-
-4. [gated 2026-09-15] `gstack_submodule_update_with_bump` NEVER modifies the
-   submodule working tree. On a successful `git submodule update --remote` it
-   re-applies the bump; on failure it returns non-zero, touches nothing, and
-   emits git's own message plus a hint naming the local Playwright bump when
-   `package.json`/`bun.lock` are the dirty files. The conflict-RECOVERY branch
-   of the earlier revision (discard, retry, backup, restore) is withdrawn: it
-   could leave the bump discarded and un-reapplied, regressing a working
-   browser into BLK-008, which the pre-existing behavior never did.
-   CHECK: sed 's/#.*//' lib/gstack-playwright.sh | grep -qE 'git [^|;]*(checkout|reset|clean|stash)' && exit 1; bash lib/tests/gstack-playwright.test.sh 2>&1 | grep -q 'update-conflict' && bash lib/tests/gstack-playwright.test.sh 2>&1 | grep -qE '^PASS=[0-9]+ FAIL=0$' && echo NONDESTRUCTIVE_OK

-   EVIDENCE: MET exit=0 marker-found :: NONDESTRUCTIVE_OK
-
-5. `doctor.sh` prints a Playwright-browsers section: total cache size, one line
-   per browser directory naming the registered playwright install(s) that
-   reference it, plus counts of unreferenced directories and broken links.
-   CHECK: bash doctor.sh 2>/dev/null | grep -qi 'playwright browsers' && bash lib/gstack-playwright.sh browsers-report | grep -qE 'chromium-[0-9]+' && bash lib/gstack-playwright.sh browsers-report | grep -qi 'unreferenced' && echo REPORT_OK
-   EXPECT: REPORT_OK
-   EVIDENCE: MET exit=0 marker-found :: REPORT_OK
-
-6. The report is provably read-only: no destructive verb anywhere in the lib,
-   and the cache directory listing is identical before and after a report run.
-   CHECK: sed 's/#.*//' lib/gstack-playwright.sh | grep -qwE '(rm|rmdir|unlink|truncate|mv)' && exit 1; b=$(ls -la ~/.cache/ms-playwright ~/.cache/ms-playwright/.links 2>/dev/null | cksum); bash lib/gstack-playwright.sh browsers-report >/dev/null 2>&1; a=$(ls -la ~/.cache/ms-playwright ~/.cache/ms-playwright/.links 2>/dev/null | cksum); [ "$b" = "$a" ] && echo READONLY_OK
-   EXPECT: READONLY_OK
-   EVIDENCE: MET exit=0 marker-found :: READONLY_OK
-
-7. `lib/tests/gstack-playwright.test.sh` exists, passes, and covers at least:
-   bump skipped when the OS tag is already supported; bump fired when it is
-   not; submodule-update conflict recovery; browsers-report on a fixture cache
-   holding a referenced revision, an unreferenced one and a broken link.

-
-9. [gated 2026-09-15] (judgement) No new dependency; the report degrades
-   silently when `~/.cache/ms-playwright` is absent, when its `.links`
-   directory is absent, when `PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH` is `0` or not a
-   directory, or when no playwright install is registered — doctor must stay
-   green on a machine that never installed a browser. The lib's printers are
-   named `_gspw_ok`/`_gspw_warn`/`_gspw_info` and it defines NO bare
-   `ok`/`warn`/`info`/`pass`/`fail`: doctor.sh sources the lib before every
-   check, so bare names would override its own printers and silently
-   disconnect its `ERRORS`/`WARNS` counters.

-> il faudrait retirer l'API de magic 21st comme on en a plus besoin vu qu'on utilise le cli maintenant. egalement, il faudrait mettre un profil par defaut, quand aucunprofil n'est selectionne il faudrait que ca soit le full qui est actif
-
-/feat $ARGUMENTS:
-> Profil par défaut = full : quand aucun profil n'est sélectionné (`.active-profile` absent, vide ou "none", après `reset`), c'est le profil `full` qui est actif (statusline, `profile current`, `gstack off`, `reset`). Même lot : retirer les résidus de l'API Magic 21st (commentaires/docs périmés MAGIC_API_KEY / magic MCP) puisque le CLI `21st` a remplacé le MCP.
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
-
-Pass A: none — request complete (outcome, scope and constraints derivable).
-Ground truth found before pass B: the magic MCP wiring is already gone from
-the live code (BDR-093, 2026-09-22): no `mcpServers` entry in `~/.claude.json`,
-no `claude()` wrapper in `~/.bashrc`, `MANAGED_MCPS` empty. What remains is
-prose: stale comments in `lib/profile.sh` (incl. a wrong `usage()` NOTE
-claiming `set` toggles "the magic MCP"), `.env.example`, `.gitleaks.toml`,
-`install-plugins.sh`, `plugins.lock.json`, `lib/tests/profile-set-managed.test.sh`,
-`README.md` — plus ONE live `MAGIC_API_KEY=` line still in `~/.claude/.env`
-(count only; value never read).
-
-Pass B [gated 2026-09-25] — 4 questions, all answered:
-Q: `reset` semantics now that `full` is the default?
-A: `reset` = `set full` (exclusive): the 20 gstack skills `full` does not list
-   are parked, the 5 design skills of the 21st pack + full's plugins/externals
-   are enabled. Label and state coincide (LRN-020).
-Q: Fresh install (`make plugin`) — apply the default profile when none is selected?
-A: Yes. install-plugins.sh ends by applying the default profile
-   (`bash lib/profile.sh reset`) when `.active-profile` is absent, empty or
-   reads `none`; an existing selection is left alone. Adds install-plugins.sh
-   to the executor scope (6 files — /feat cap of 5 exceeded by one 15-line
-   guarded block; accepted, not escalated to /ship-feature).
-Q: README depth for the magic-MCP mentions?
-A: One sentence of history: the 21st section is renamed "21st.dev CLI", keeps
-   one sentence ("replaces the former magic MCP, same endpoint, no key"),
-   drops the MCP-era risk / API-key / bashrc-wrapper paragraphs (that wrapper
-   no longer exists in `~/.bashrc`). CHANGELOG untouched.
-Q: Delete the leftover `MAGIC_API_KEY=` line in `~/.claude/.env`?
-A: Yes — done by the orchestrator (targeted `sed -i` on that one line, count
-   before 1 / after 0; value never read).
-
-## ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA
-
-1. `lib/profile.sh` declares the default profile ONCE, `DEFAULT_PROFILE="full"`,
-   and `hooks/statusline.sh` derives its fallback from that constant (reads it
-   from the lib; a literal `full` may exist there only as the unreadable-lib
-   fallback).

-   EXPECT: CONST_OK
-   EVIDENCE: MET exit=0 marker-found :: CONST_OK
-
-2. [revised after challenge, 2026-09-25] `profile.sh current` is label-driven:
-   it names `$(active_profile)` as its FIRST WORD in every state and never
-   infers the profile from the parked-gstack count. With `.active-profile`
-   absent, empty or `none` the line contains `default — not applied yet`;
-   with a cache naming a profile it contains `% match`; with a cache naming
-   a profile that has no `.profile` file it contains `unknown profile`.
-   Right after `reset` on a clean tree (no gstack linked, nothing parked —
-   how a real tree looks under BDR-030) the line contains `100% match` and
-   NOT `not applied`. No output claims "all gstack skills enabled".
-   (judgement + suite criterion 6, tests T1/T4/T5/T6/T7)
-
-3. `profile.sh gstack off` with `.active-profile` absent, empty, or reading
-   `none` exits 0 and trims gstack to the default profile's list (no
-   "no active profile" error for those three states). A cache naming a profile
-   whose file does not exist still errors (rc 1).
-   (judgement + suite criterion 6, tests T2/T2b/T3/T4)
-
-4. `profile.sh reset` lands on the default profile: it writes `full` to
-   `.active-profile`, and the resulting skill/plugin/external state is what
-   the gated answer below specifies. The literal `write_active "none"` no
-   longer exists; nothing in `lib/profile.sh` writes `none` to the cache.

-
-11. (judgement) No new dependency. LRN-020 honoured: `full` names the real
-    default profile, `reset` applies it and a fresh install applies it when
-    nothing is selected, so no label denotes "nothing applied"; the
-    parenthetical after the name says whether the profile is applied
-    (`% match`) or merely in force (`default — not applied yet`). The
-    cross-profile "best guess" scan is replaced by the match of the labelled
-    profile only (one profile scored instead of ten).
-
-12. [gated 2026-09-25, revised after challenge] `install-plugins.sh` applies
-    the default profile at the very end of the install (a Step 11 AFTER the
-    Step 10 `link.sh` refresh, BEFORE the Install Summary) by calling
-    `bash "$REPO/lib/profile.sh" reset` ONLY when `.active-profile` is
-    absent, empty or reads `none`; the call is guarded (`|| warn …`, the
-    installer runs under `set -e`) so a failure never hides the Summary; an
-    existing selection is re-applied with `bash "$REPO/lib/profile.sh" set
-    "$SEL"` (same guard) because Step 2 re-parks gstack and Step 10's
-    `link.sh` re-links the design externals on every run — the label never
-    changes, its state comes back; a missing `lib/profile.sh`
-    warns and skips. Step 8.7 no longer parks the 21st pack unconditionally
-    (that block is removed: a re-run must never re-park what the selected
-    profile or the user enabled); its comments and the Summary line say the
-    design skills follow the profile and the publishing skills stay on
-    demand, with no hard-coded counts. The installer itself is NEVER
-    executed during this run (side effects: npm, claude plugin) —
-    `bash -n` + shellcheck only.

-    semantics outside the profile files are patched in the same diff:

-> Vendor three skills from addyosmani/agent-skills as machine-owned copies, the emil-design-eng way: `observability-and-instrumentation`, `deprecation-and-migration`, `ci-cd-and-automation`. Source pinned to commit `2686b620fc1fed2e8f60c704839c766b8594c6b6` (main, 2026-09-26) in `plugins.lock.json`; the scripts read the pin from the lock, never hardcode it. Each lands in `skills-external/<name>/SKILL.md` (gitignored, curl'd by install-plugins.sh, refreshed by update-all.sh at the pinned commit), symlinked by link.sh, registered wherever emil-design-eng is registered when the semantics apply (toggle-external registry, profiles that carry the dev skills, tests that enumerate externals, CHANGELOG). User go 2026-09-27 ("ok pour les 4", case 2 of the 6-repo review).
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- Profiles: add the three to `full.profile` and to every profile that lists `bugfix` (dev-class); never to design/web profiles.
- Not mirrored on purpose (design-only citers): lib/design-gate.md, lib/tests/fixtures/registry-index-drift.md, lib/profiles/{design,web,web-full}.profile, agents/plugin-advisor.md, agents/plugin-probe.md, CLAUDE.global.md.
- Upstream SKILL.md copied byte-for-byte: no edits, no rewrite of internal links (dangling cross-skill mentions accepted).
- The executor materializes the three files with the same curl the install step uses (network read allowed); it never runs `link.sh`, `make link`, `make plugin` or `update-all.sh` (they touch `~/.claude`).
- Lock entry shape: `"agent-skills": {"source": "https://github.com/addyosmani/agent-skills", "commit": "<sha>", "skills": [...], "managed_by": "curl", "note": "..."}`. A helper reading it may follow the `pinned_version` pattern of install-plugins.sh.
- The three raw URLs: `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/addyosmani/agent-skills/<sha>/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` (no extra files under these three skills upstream).

-## REQUEST (verbatim — IMMUTABLE)
-> Build `lib/floor-guard.sh`, a diff-scoped deterministic detector of a quietly weakened quality bar, adapted from addyosmani/agent-skills `constraint-driven-development` (floor guard) to this repo's gate model. Usage `bash ~/.claude/lib/floor-guard.sh <base-ref> [-- <pathspec>...]` over `git diff <base-ref>` (working tree included). Kinds: SUPPRESS (added checker silencing: `@ts-ignore`, `@ts-expect-error` without a trailing reason, `eslint-disable*`, `# noqa`, `# type: ignore`, `nosemgrep`, `nosec`, `shellcheck disable`), SKIP (added `.skip(`, `.only(`, `xit(`, `xdescribe(`, `fit(`, `fdescribe(`, `it.todo(`, `@pytest.mark.skip`, `@unittest.skip`, `t.Skip(` in test files), DELETED_TEST (deleted file whose path matches a test pattern), ASSERT_DROP (a test file whose assertion-line count decreases: `expect(`, `assert`, `should`, `.toBe`), STUB (added `not implemented`, `NotImplementedError`, empty `catch` block, `except: pass`), THRESHOLD_DOWN (a numeric value decreased on the same key in coverage/quality config files: `jest.config*`, `vitest.config*`, `.nycrc*`, `codecov*`, `sonar-project.properties`, `lighthouserc*`, `CONSTRAINTS.md`). Waiver: an added line carrying `floor-guard: allow <reason>` is printed as WAIVED and not counted. Output: one `FLOOR <KIND> <file>:<line> <snippet>` per finding, then `FLOOR GUARD: clean` (rc 0) or `FLOOR GUARD: <n> finding(s), <m> waived` (rc 2); rc 3 on usage error. Wire it as a mandatory verifier step (agents/verifier.md) and document it in lib/verify-secure-loop.md GATE 1; hermetic suite `lib/tests/floor-guard.test.sh`. User go 2026-09-27 ("ok pour les 4", case 2 item 2).
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- Language: bash entry point; the diff parsing may live in an embedded python3 heredoc (precedent `lib/tests/run-review-guards.sh`). Functions <= 25 logic lines, 80-char lines.
- File classes: test file = path contains `test`, `spec`, `__tests__`, or matches `*.test.*`, `*.spec.*`, `*_test.go`, `*_test.py`, `test_*.py`; config file = the names listed under THRESHOLD_DOWN. SKIP and ASSERT_DROP apply to test files only; SUPPRESS and STUB to any file; THRESHOLD_DOWN to config files only.
- The guard's own pattern table contains the trigger strings: those source lines carry `# floor-guard: allow pattern table` so the guard stays clean on itself (this also exercises the waiver path for real).
- Verifier step: `bash ~/.claude/lib/floor-guard.sh <base>` where base = the branch's gitflow base (develop; main for hotfix/release); rc 2 → verdict ECARTS listing each FLOOR line, unless the contract's CLARIFICATIONS explicitly authorize that exact weakening (quote it in the verdict).
- Suite: throwaway repos (`make test` exports GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=/dev/null); one RED fixture per kind, one WAIVED fixture, one CLEAN fixture, each printed as `PASS <KIND>`; summary `PASS=n FAIL=m` like the other suites.
- Self-detection: the suite file itself contains the trigger strings; the self-run criterion excludes it by pathspec.
- Out of scope: a pre-commit hook, running it on the repo's own diff in `make test`, parsers beyond the regexes above.

-> Vendor five scroll-choreography skills from MengTo/Skills (`agent-skills/web-design`) as machine-owned copies at pinned commit `a965851e27dc179e693fde1bee94457a64e1a7a5` (main, 2026-09-23), text files only: scroll-world-storytelling (SKILL.md, REFERENCES.md); build-threejs-scroll-worlds (SKILL.md, references/kage-anatomy.md, references/quality-and-qa.md, references/realtime-architecture.md, references/scroll-conductor.js, references/world-bible.md); scroll-scrubbed-visual-sequence (SKILL.md, REFERENCES.md); scroll-scrubbed-word-reveal (SKILL.md, REFERENCES.md); scroll-progress-timeline (SKILL.md, REFERENCES.md). Never demo/, agents/, assets, images, video, fonts or minified js. Lock entry `mengto-skills` with per-skill file lists; install and update read the pin from the lock; the vendoring loop becomes ONE shared helper used by both the agent-skills entry and this one (agent-skills behaviour unchanged, re-verified). Registered like emil-design-eng in link.sh, .gitignore, lib/toggle-external.sh, lib/profile.sh MANAGED_EXTERNALS and the design-class profiles (design, web, web-full, full). User go 2026-09-27 ("ok pour 1, l'hybride", case 7 of the repo review).
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- Lock shape: `"mengto-skills": {"source": "https://github.com/MengTo/Skills", "commit": "<sha>", "path": "agent-skills/web-design", "skills": {"<name>": ["SKILL.md", "..."]}, "managed_by": "curl", "note": "..."}`. The helper accepts both shapes: `skills` as a list of names (agent-skills: files = ["SKILL.md"], path default "skills") and as a dict name → file list.
- Helper: `lib/vendor-skills.sh`, function `vendor_pinned_skills <lock-key> [refresh]`, sourced by install-plugins.sh (Step 8e, replacing its inline loop) and update-all.sh (step 7.3, replacing its inline loop). Reads the lock with python3 via argv (never string-spliced). Raw URL = `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/<owner>/<repo>/<sha>/<path>/<name>/<file>`; the prefix up to `<sha>` is overridable through `VENDOR_BASE_URL` so a hermetic test can serve `file://` fixtures. Per file: tmp + mv, tmp removed on failure; a skill counts as installed only when every listed file landed, otherwise `err` with the manual curl. Skip files already present unless `refresh`. Subdirectories (references/) created as needed.
- Byte-for-byte copies; Codex-isms in the text stay.
- Profiles: the five under the design/external section of design, web, web-full, full; ALSO add the line `site-motion` with the `personal` label to the same four profiles (a sibling contract writes skills/site-motion and must not touch profiles); mirror how personal design skills are listed there. Never backend/dev.
- Not mirrored on purpose (design-only or sibling-owned): CLAUDE.global.md, lib/design-gate.md, agents/plugin-advisor.md, agents/plugin-probe.md, lib/tests/fixtures/registry-index-drift.md, lib/profiles/backend.profile, lib/profiles/dev.profile.
- Executor materializes the files with the same curl (network read allowed); never runs link.sh, make link, make plugin, update-all.sh or install-plugins.sh.
- Routing census pre-checked 2026-09-27: no pair ≥ 0.50 among the five descriptions.

-2. `lib/vendor-skills.sh`: lock reader (python3 argv → source/commit/path/skills, normalising list → dict), URL builder honoring `VENDOR_BASE_URL`, per-file tmp+mv loop, skip/refresh, summary lines in the scripts' ok/info/err style (define fallbacks if sourced standalone). Functions ≤ 25 logic lines, 80-char lines.
-3. install-plugins.sh Step 8e → source the lib, call `vendor_pinned_skills agent-skills` then `vendor_pinned_skills mengto-skills`; update-all.sh 7.3 → same with `refresh`. Remove the now-dead inline loops; keep or fold `pinned_commit`.
-4. Lock entry; link.sh EXTERNAL_SKILLS += 5; .gitignore both patterns ×5 with a source comment; toggle-external MANAGED_TOOLS += 5; profile.sh MANAGED_EXTERNALS += 5; profiles (five + `site-motion personal`).
-5. `lib/tests/vendor-skills.test.sh`: temp dir with a fake lock (one list-shape key, one dict-shape key with a references/ file), fixture tree served via `VENDOR_BASE_URL=file://…`, checks LIST_SHAPE, DICT_SHAPE, SKIP_PRESENT, REFRESH_OVERWRITES, FAIL_LEAVES_NOTHING (missing fixture file → no partial file, no tmp). `PASS=n FAIL=m` summary.
-6. Materialize the five with the helper against the real lock (network); run criteria 1-9.

-> Write the personal skill `skills/site-motion/SKILL.md` (+ `test-prompts.json` for darwin, same schema as the 32 existing ones): site-level motion choreography for lively modern sites, distilling the invariants of the MengTo motion pack (LRN-141: invariants, never machinery), aligned with rules/web-building.md, BDR-005 (`motion` is the default library; GSAP allowed for scroll choreography when the project already uses it or the effect needs pin/scrub) and the design toolchain. Sections: when to use versus the component-level skills (emil-design-eng, design-motion-principles, impeccable animate) and the audits; gates first (reduced motion renders final states, never shortened animations; content visible without JS, `html.js` gate set only after plugin registration; compositor-only properties, `will-change` only during an animation, offscreen pause, first-viewport CTA never covered by a preloader, no preloader on a timer); engine choice (exactly one smooth-scroll engine; Lenis ↔ ScrollTrigger sync through `gsap.ticker` with `lagSmoothing(0)`; CSS `animation-timeline` first when the effect is plain progress); Astro lifecycle with ClientRouter (init on `astro:page-load`, teardown on `astro:before-swap`, `transition:persist` for canvases, `transition:name` for morphs, test with and without JS); recipes as numbers (reveal at `top 82%`, once; scrub 0.8-1.4 with `ease: "none"` and eased children; sticky card stack scale `0.92 + i*0.015` from the next card `top 78%` → `top 24%`; 0.7-1.8 viewport heights of scroll per story beat; video scrub encoded with `ffmpeg -g 8 -keyint_min 8 -sc_threshold 0 -movflags +faststart`; image sequences cancel stale requests; word split through `TreeWalker` with the original text kept readable and no `aria-label` on paragraphs; progressive blur = stacked `backdrop-filter` layers 0.5 → 64 px in 12.5 % mask bands with the `-webkit-` prefix, top ≤ 12 %, bottom ≤ 65 %; marquee = duplicated track, `translateX(-50%)` linear, `aria-hidden` clone, paused offscreen; magnetic and cursor effects through `gsap.quickTo`; WebGL: one lane per page, pricing decorative only, poster fallback built first, context loss handled, DPR 1.25-1.5 on mobile with 150-300k triangles and 50-90 draw calls, exact progress for navigation and ARIA versus damped progress for the camera; offscreen census through `document.getAnimations()` and route-cycle leak sampling); an upstream-pitfalls list; a verification checklist.

- Sources: the upstream texts are already on disk, read them, never re-fetch: /tmp/claude-1000/-home-bchanot-Documents-claude/977f1703-f01d-497a-b794-5b69fafcd35f/scratchpad/mengto/ (11 small skills) and .../scratchpad/mengto-heavy/ (11 heavy ones, extras under x/). Distil; never copy paragraphs.
- Never prescribe: glow or gradient hover, reveal on every section, permanent `will-change`, Inter or Geist, preloaders on timers, entrances from `scale(0)`, ease-in exits. Point to rules/web-building.md by path instead of restating it.
- Pitfalls to list (found upstream by reading): `clearProps` under reduced motion leaving text hidden behind a visibility gate; `registerPlugin` after the `html.js` gate; per-frame `phi += 0.01` without delta time; WebGL context recreated on every resize; preloader on a fixed timer; `aria-label` on `<p>`; content left at opacity 0 without JS.
- Citations of doctrine use the exact heading: `CLAUDE.md § Design work — full toolchain (tiered by scope)`; any other citation must resolve for lib/tests/doctrine-citers.test.sh.

-## REQUEST (verbatim — IMMUTABLE)
-> Build `lib/tests/skill-routing-census.test.sh`: a deterministic census of skill-description collisions across the live catalog, adapted from addyosmani/agent-skills evals Tier 2. Catalog = every `SKILL.md` under `~/.claude/skills/*/` (symlinks resolved) plus plugin skills under `~/.claude/plugins/cache/*/*/*/skills/*/SKILL.md` and `~/.claude/plugins/cache/*/*/*/.claude/skills/*/SKILL.md` (roots overridable via `SKILL_ROUTING_ROOTS`, colon-separated dirs, for fixtures). Extract `description` (scalar or `|`/`>` block), tokenize (lowercase, `[a-z][a-z0-9-]+`, stopwords, suffix stemming s/es/ed/ing), TF-IDF cosine over all pairs. Print `skills with description: N`, the top 10 pairs as `0.52  a  ~  b`, WARN lines for pairs >= `SKILL_ROUTING_WARN` (default 0.50), FAIL for pairs >= `SKILL_ROUTING_FAIL` (default 0.75). Self-test on fixtures: a near-duplicate pair must FAIL (`FIXTURE_COLLISION_DETECTED`), a distinct pair must pass (`FIXTURE_DISTINCT_OK`). Measured today: 120 skills, max 0.52 (careful ~ guard), 0 pairs >= 0.75 → green with one WARN. User go 2026-09-27 ("ok pour les 4", case 2 item 3).
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- python3 embedded in the bash suite is allowed (precedent run-review-guards.sh). If the python body exceeds ~120 lines, put it in `lib/skill-routing-census.py` and keep the suite as the wrapper.
- Reference implementation (read it, reuse the logic, harden the block-description parsing): `/tmp/claude-1000/-home-bchanot-Documents-claude/977f1703-f01d-497a-b794-5b69fafcd35f/scratchpad/census.py`.
- Thresholds stay at the upstream defaults; no allowlist file; a WARN never fails the suite.
- Dedup by skill directory name: first path wins.
- Out of scope (follow-up): positive/negative prompt ranking per skill.
- The live census is machine-dependent by design (it audits this machine's catalog); the fixture self-test is the hermetic part. On a machine with an empty catalog the live pass prints `skills with description: 0` and passes.

-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- Pass A: none — request complete. "Detect we need 21st" = the design gate (lib/design-gate.md → lib/design-tool-gate.sh), the single place the 21st CLI is required (GATE-BLOCK of design.profile); the 21st skills themselves are machine-owned (`21st skills install`) and are not edited.
- Pass B: no visible / public-name / scope choice left open — the gate message wording follows the gate's existing style, the exit code and the helper file are internal. Proceeds silently.
- [challenge 2026-09-28, 3 lenses: simplicity CONCERNS(1), correctness FATAL(2), robustness FATAL(4); every BLOCKER/MAJOR closed by a named plan change, r2] (a) NO shared helper: the predicate lives inline in lib/design-tool-gate.sh, toggle-external.sh and install-plugins.sh are untouched (their inline checks keep their own semantics); (b) three-state predicate `in` / `out` (exact "Not logged in" sentence) / `unknown` (rc≠0, timeout, unexpected line) → `unknown` surfaces as exit 11 with the raw diagnostic, never as the sign-in remedy; (c) no in-session `export TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN` remedy (env does not persist across tool calls, secrets stay out of the transcript) — the env var is honored when already present; (d) explicit user opt-out "proceed without 21st", stated visibly, scoped to the run; silent skip forbidden.
- [confirmation pass 2026-09-28, robustness CONCERNS(1), all closed by named changes, r3] unknown diagnostic pinned to `whoami: rc=<rc> <line>` with a CLI-specific remedy in the 11 block; stdout-only classification, `</dev/null`, rc captured under pipefail (test proves rc≠0 beats the sentence); hermeticity precondition on the sanitized PATH; MIRROR note at both sites; doc offers any terminal on this machine and does not re-ask after an explicit opt-out; `API_KEY_21ST` honored next to `TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN` (the CLI's second token env).
- Sign-in predicate = the CLI's own auth paths: `TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN` or `API_KEY_21ST` non-empty, or `21st whoami` first line starting with `Logged in as ` (local token read, no network; same sentence lib/toggle-external.sh:245 and install-plugins.sh:1059 test today). `whoami` wrapped in `timeout 15`; any other answer = `unknown`.
- Waiting = the orchestrator asks the user to run `! 21st login` in the session (browser flow) and ENDS THE TURN; on the user's reply it re-runs the gate before continuing. The agent never runs `21st login` itself (opens a browser, needs the human). A signed-out 21st is never treated as absent and its steps are never skipped.
- Functions ≤ 25 logic lines, 80-char lines; shellcheck clean; hermetic tests neutralize the real machine (`HOME` and `PATH` point into the fixture so `ensure_21st_on_path` cannot find the real CLI).
- Executors never run `21st login`, `profile.sh set|apply|reset`, `claude plugin …`, never commit.

-## REQUEST (verbatim — IMMUTABLE)
-> Add a `make doctor` check for the externally vendored skills, which doctor.sh ignores today (it only checks the gstack submodule). New `lib/doctor-vendored.sh` exposing `check_vendored_skills <repo> <claude_home> [profile_file]`, sourced and called by doctor.sh in a new "Vendored skills" section right after the gstack section. Expected state: (1) every plugins.lock.json entry with `managed_by: curl` has its files under `skills-external/`: `skills` as a list → `<name>/SKILL.md` each; `skills` as a dict → every listed file; single-file `path` shape (emil-design-eng) → `<key>/SKILL.md`; (2) every name in link.sh's `EXTERNAL_SKILLS` array has `skills-external/<name>/SKILL.md` and, when the name is listed in the active profile file (or when no profile file is given), a symlink `<claude_home>/skills/<name>` → `<repo>/skills-external/<name>`; a name absent from the active profile is reported as parked, not failed. Outcomes use doctor's helpers: `fail` "<name>: <what is missing> — run: make plugin" for files, `fail` "<name>: symlink missing/wrong — run: make link (or: bash lib/profile.sh apply <profile>)" for links, `info` "<name>: parked by profile <p>", `pass` "<name>: vendored + linked" otherwise, `warn` when the lock or link.sh cannot be read. Hermetic suite `lib/tests/doctor-vendored.test.sh`. README's doctor line names the new check. User go 2026-09-28 ("ok ajoute le check doctor").
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- The lib defines fallback `pass/fail/warn/info` only when the caller has not (same `declare -F` guard as lib/vendor-skills.sh) so doctor.sh's counters (`ERRORS`, `WARNS`) keep working.
- Lock parsing with python3 via argv (never string-spliced); `EXTERNAL_SKILLS` parsed from link.sh with a single-purpose grep/sed of the array line(s), tolerant to the multi-line array.
- Active profile in doctor.sh: resolve the way lib/profile.sh's `active_profile()` does (read its code; the cache path it reads; no `claude` invocation); pass the profile file path `lib/profiles/<name>.profile` to the check; if it cannot be resolved, call the check without a profile file (every external expected linked).
- A name in the profile counts whatever its label column says (external / personal), match on the first token of the line.
- Functions ≤ 25 logic lines, 80-char lines, ≤ 5 params, ≤ 5 locals.
- Suite: fixture repo under mktemp with a fake lock (list, dict with a references/ file, single-path shapes), a fake link.sh holding an `EXTERNAL_SKILLS=(...)` array, a fake `<claude_home>/skills` dir and a fake profile file; cases print `PASS <NAME>`: ALL_PRESENT, FILE_MISSING, DICT_FILES_COMPLETE (dict entry missing one references file → fail names that file), SYMLINK_MISSING_ACTIVE, SYMLINK_WRONG_TARGET, SYMLINK_PARKED (name absent from the profile → info, no fail), NO_PROFILE_EXPECTS_LINK, LOCK_UNREADABLE (warn, rc 0). `PASS=n FAIL=m` summary.
- doctor.sh is read-only; the executor MAY run `bash doctor.sh` live for the criterion below (it inspects, never writes).

-> fais le hotfix du floor-guard
-> BLK-023: lib/floor-guard.sh SKIP pattern `xit(` (meant for Jasmine's xit) matches any `exit(` / `SystemExit(` / `process.exit(` in python or JS test helpers → false FLOOR SKIP finding (ECARTS on a conform diff, 2026-09-28). Fix: make the Jasmine match word-bounded so `sys.exit(` no longer trips it; keep `xit(` detection for a real Jasmine `xit(` at line start or after a non-identifier char. Add the two regression cases to lib/tests/floor-guard.test.sh (a python `sys.exit(1)` line must NOT flag; a JS `  xit('skipped', ...)` line MUST flag).
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- Pass A: silent autofill (hotfix). Pass B: nothing visible or public is open (an internal matcher; message text unchanged).
- [challenge 2026-09-28: simplicity SOLID, correctness SOLID, robustness CONCERNS(2), all closed by named plan changes, r2] fixture echo lines in lib/tests/floor-guard.test.sh carry `# floor-guard: allow flip-test fixture` outside the echoed string (a test-path diff scan would flag the fixture itself; WAIVED on a test file is informational and authorized here); the vacuous live clause left criterion 2; `def fit(` / `function xit(` / `xit.each(` behave as before and are recorded as a `shortcut:` comment (upgrade path named there), out of hotfix scope.
- Root cause (LOCATE): `skip_kind` (lib/floor-guard.sh:188-189) is a plain substring test over SKIP_SUBSTRINGS; the bare-identifier entries `'xit('`, `'fit('`, `'xdescribe('`, `'fdescribe('` therefore match inside longer identifiers (`exit(`, `SystemExit(`, `process.exit(`, `model.fit(`, `profit(`). The dotted/decorator entries (`.skip(`, `.only(`, `it.todo(`, `@pytest.mark.skip`, `@unittest.skip`, `t.Skip(`) are unaffected.
- Fix (closed): the four bare identifiers move out of SKIP_SUBSTRINGS into one compiled regex with an identifier-boundary lookbehind, `(?<![A-Za-z0-9_.])(?:xit|fit|xdescribe|fdescribe)\(`, and `skip_kind` returns SKIP when either the remaining substrings or that regex match. Excluding `.` in the lookbehind also stops `model.fit(` (a method call) from flagging; a Jasmine focused/skipped block is always a bare call.
-
-## ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA
-1. Symptom gone: test-file lines `process.exit(1);`, `model.fit(x);`, `profit(1)` produce no FLOOR SKIP (SKIP_EXIT_CLEAN is RED on the old matcher, GREEN after — the regression oracle); Jasmine `  xit(`, `fit(`, `fdescribe(` lines still do. [challenge: fixtures extended]

-design-shotgun) out of the profiles with the routing lines corrected, switch the
-security-guidance Stop layer off, fix doctor.sh and the "0 tokens" claims.
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- Pass A: none — request complete (outcome, scope and constraints derivable from the audit).
- Live state already changed by the orchestrator before dispatch (user go): `claude plugin disable brightdata-plugin@synced` wrote `"brightdata-plugin@synced": false` into settings.json; `claude plugin uninstall frontend-design@claude-plugins-official` removed its enabledPlugins entry and cache. The executor keeps both states.
- The superset profile carries a header line `# SUPERSET-OF: full` so oracles find it by content, not by name (internal choice).
- "Parked" = kept installed, out of the default `full` profile, listed only in the superset profile (and in the specialized profiles that already carry them, see pass B). The 9 removed gstack skills go in NO profile, superset included: they are broken (autoplan, careful/guard hooks exit 127, context-save without restore) or break doctrine (ship base = origin/HEAD = main, land-and-deploy auto-merges and deploys), or need an absent key (design-shotgun → OPENAI_API_KEY).
- security-guidance stays installed and enabled (PROTECTED); only the Stop-hook LLM review is switched off through the plugin's own env switch `ENABLE_STOP_REVIEW=0` in settings.json `env`; commit/push agentic review and the regex layer stay on.
- [gated 2026-09-28] Q: superset profile name? / A: `max`.
- [gated 2026-09-28] Q: 11 redundant gstack out of the specialized profiles too? / A: NO — user rule: "full must already carry what every other profile has; max has everything; these gstack matter in full because full must do what each profile does". So the 11 redundant gstack STAY in full (and in their specialized profiles). Parked = only what no specialized profile carries: make-pdf, diagram, and the 21st trio. `full` ⊇ union of every non-max profile, minus the 9 removed names and the 21st trio, minus an explicit exception allowlist written in the census test with its reason (pr-review-toolkit: plugin deliberately out of full, audit 2026-07-02 #12, ~2.2k tokens; measured 2026-09-28: it is the ONLY name any specialized profile carries that full lacks).
- [gated 2026-09-28] Q: 21st-ai / 21st-ui-explore / 21st-ui-review scope? / A: out of all four design-bearing profiles (full, web, web-full, design), kept in `max`; CLAUDE.global.md "Review / audit" line drops "+ 21st-ui-review"; GATE-BLOCK untouched.
- [gated 2026-09-28] Q: add the `freeze/bin` helper link too? / A: yes, same fix as make-pdf/diagram.
- [challenge 2026-09-28, 3 blind challengers, no BLOCKER, 8 MAJOR adopted] (a) the broken-wiring class is every `~/.claude/skills/gstack/<path>` the gstack skills hardcode (bin, scripts, ETHOS.md, lib, design/dist, extension, */sections, review/checklist+specialists, make-pdf/dist, freeze/bin…), fixed by one shared `lib/gstack-links.sh` used by link.sh AND install-plugins.sh, exposing no SKILL.md; (b) `profile.sh apply` is additive, only `set`/`reset` park: the live tree is proven by criterion 16 (`set full`); (c) `gstack on` / `toggle-external enable gstack` honor the `GSTACK_REMOVED` denylist (`lib/gstack-removed.sh`, single source); (d) `max` ⊇ union of every profile − GSTACK_REMOVED (so it carries pr-review-toolkit); (e) census test = passing baseline then one mutant per invariant; (f) doctor reuses lib/skill-routing-census.py's parser through `lib/doctor-skills.sh`; (g) no synced-bucket line in doctor (scope). These refine criteria 2, 3, 8, 9 and add 16-18 below; they are reported to the human at the merge gate.
- [confirmation pass 2026-09-28, robustness FATAL(4), every finding closed by a named plan change, r4] helper lib skips nested-SKILL.md dirs and removes/refuses a dst symlink; update-all.sh joins the shared lib (criterion 18); the three existing profile/toggle suites copy lib/gstack-removed.sh into their fixtures; `gstack on` reports the real restored count; doctor stats warn on fallback.
- Functions ≤ 25 logic lines, 80-char lines, ≤ 5 params, ≤ 5 locals (CLAUDE.global.md). Shell edits shellcheck-clean.

-# CONTRACT — superpowers-vendored
- date: 2026-09-28 | flow: feat (ad-hoc dispatch, /feat gates replayed by the orchestrator, 2 parallel feater executors) | branch: feature/superpowers-vendored
- status: active
-
-## REQUEST (verbatim — IMMUTABLE)
-> ok merge le tout et écris les registres puis fais le tier 2
-
-Tier 2 as decided 2026-09-28 (batch 1, option "Vendoriser 7, retirer le plugin (Recommended)"): vendor brainstorming, writing-plans, subagent-driven-development, test-driven-development, requesting-code-review, using-git-worktrees, writing-skills from obra/superpowers at the v6.4.1 commit via `lib/vendor-skills.sh`, drop the superpowers plugin (its 8 other skills and its session-start injection), rename the `superpowers:` citers.
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- Pass A: none — request complete (the decision batch fixed scope and outcome).
- Pass B: no visible / public-name choice left open — the vendored skills keep their upstream names (bare, no `superpowers:` prefix; renaming would break their internal cross-references), the lock key is `superpowers`, the always-on status is inherited (not in MANAGED_EXTERNALS, like darwin-skill). Proceeds silently.
- Byte-for-byte upstream text (BDR-104 convention): the vendored files are never edited, so their internal `superpowers:<x>` mentions and references to the 8 dropped skills (executing-plans, finishing-a-development-branch, systematic-debugging, verification-before-completion, dispatching-parallel-agents, receiving-code-review, using-superpowers, diagnosing-superpowers) stay in the text; CLAUDE.global.md carries the routing map (bare names; executing-plans → subagent-driven-development; finishing-a-development-branch → `gitflow finish` on a human signal; systematic-debugging → bugfix; verification-before-completion → the verifier gates). Known residual, documented.
- Scripts inside the vendored skills are invoked as `bash scripts/<x>` upstream: no exec bit needed after curl.
- `docs/superpowers/{specs,plans}` stays the transient path (brainstorming/writing-plans still write there; gitflow purge unchanged, BDR-065).
- Live steps are the orchestrator's: criterion 2 runs the vendor helper (network) + link.sh; the plugin uninstall (`claude plugin uninstall superpowers@superpowers-marketplace`) runs AFTER the 7 skills are linked, then criterion 8 checks the catalog. Executors never run `claude plugin …`, the vendor helper against the network, link.sh, `profile.sh set`, never commit.
- [challenge 2026-09-28, 3 lenses: simplicity CONCERNS(2), robustness CONCERNS(3), correctness FATAL(5); every BLOCKER/MAJOR closed by a named plan change, r2] (a) CLAUDE.global.md map never spells the colon form; (b) `always_on` lock field + doctor-vendored always-on class, test case; (c) no uninstall code in the installer, one-shot by the orchestrator after criterion 2, marketplace removed too, rollback step; (d) settings.json hand-edited (enabledPlugins key + marketplace block) and committed; (e) detect_superpowers = file test on the linked skill, no fallback, negative control in criterion 5; (f) map trimmed, lock note trimmed, session-start line deleted plainly.
- [confirmation pass 2026-09-28, correctness CONCERNS(1), all closed by named changes, r3] map identifiers kept whole per line (grep is line-based); `always_on` mechanism pinned (third lock column, 5th `_dv_check_link` param, headers); settings.json edited by the orchestrator only after criterion 2 is green; stale installer edge case removed; doctor pass line worded on what it proves.
- Functions ≤ 25 logic lines, 80-char lines, shellcheck clean.

-## REQUEST (verbatim — IMMUTABLE)
-> en se basant sur le meme tableau que la derniere fois [low: corriger une ligne, renommer un fichier, lancer un script · medium: le travail courant · high: un refactor, un bug qui resiste · xhigh: architecture, audit avant validation · max: quand une erreur coince, une erreur ne se rattrape pas, ou qu'on juge avoir besoin de beaucoup de reflexion], quand on a pin les orchestrateurs et leur sous agent a des efforts, j'aimerais que tu fasse une ronde de tout les skill et que tu mete un niveau d'effort en plus du model pin. D'ailleurs les model pin, c'est du par exemple Sonnet ou du Sonnet 5.5 (version du model pinned) ? Car il faudrait utiliser les versions qui vont bien avec la tache qu'ils ont a acomplir.
-> [answered: model pins stay tier aliases; the latest version of a tier is also the cheapest or same-priced, the quality/price trade-off is tier × effort]
-
-## CLARIFICATIONS
- User choices 2026-09-29 (AskUserQuestion): design stack high uniform; hotfix stays high; every vendored external of the proposed table gets a pin; README/USAGE docs in the same branch.
- Round result: 30 existing entry levels hold against the table; 3 repo skills had none (skills-perso low, pdf-translate medium, site-motion high); vendored externals get theirs from `lib/effort-pins.txt` re-applied by `lib/effort-pins.sh`; impeccable, graphify, find-docs, gstack, darwin-skill and the five shifters stay unpinned (machine-owned, BDR-107).
- Defect found in passing, fixed here: `update-all.sh` re-fetched the vendored skills but never re-applied the pins (lost until the next `make plugin`).
- Defect found in passing, surfaced not fixed: ~94 % of sub-agent usage records carry no `output_tokens_details`, so `lib/effort-audit.py` read zero thinking on sub-agents; the script now prints coverage and a CAVEAT; EVAL-037's "executors stay cheap" is a measurement gap (registry correction pending user approval).
- lib/tests/effort-routing.test.sh line 4 widens its shellcheck directive from SC2015 to SC2015,SC2016: the new `has … '$REPO'` locks are literal source text, the `$REPO` must NOT expand (authorized; a test file, informational). [verifier 2026-09-29 gap 3]
- Hardening round (criteria 8-9) added after the security gate on user go; the fixture suite may `chmod` its own mktemp directory (555 then back to 755 for the trap cleanup), never `-R`, never outside the fixture.
- Frontmatter placement of the inserted `effort:` line (after `name:`, else before the closing `---`) has no harness effect; locked by the fixture suite only.
-
-## ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA
-1. Map + helper: `lib/effort-pins.sh` inserts, keeps, replaces (frontmatter only), skips a missing skill, is idempotent, rejects a bad level / traversal name / three-field line before writing, parses the real map.

-   EXPECT: PINS_GREEN
-   EVIDENCE: MET exit=0 marker-found :: PINS_GREEN
-2. Census: the effort-routing suite is green and locks the three new repo levels, the map-driven vendored check, the design-stack single level, both re-apply call sites and the doctrine pointer.

-3. Re-apply wired after the LAST vendoring step of both scripts, hardcoded loop gone: in install-plugins.sh the call follows the 21st pack staging block; in update-all.sh it follows the 21st pack refresh (§7.4, the last step that rewrites a SKILL.md), which itself follows the superpowers refresh.

-# PLAN — gstack-playwright-lib (feat) — REVISION 3
-
-Contract: `.claude/tasks/contracts/2026-09-13-gstack-playwright-lib-2220.md`
-Revision 3 (2026-09-15). Rev 1 → 3-lens challenge → rev 2 → confirmation pass
-→ rev 3. The conflict-RECOVERY branch is WITHDRAWN at the human gate: it
-concentrated 3 BLOCKERs and 4 MAJORs, and its worst case regressed a working
-browser into BLK-008, which the pre-existing behavior never did.
-
-## Context
-
- Chromium is not an apt package. It is the browser revision pinned by the
-  installed Playwright (`gstack/setup:483`). gstack: playwright 1.61.1 →
-  chromium rev 1228 (`Chrome for Testing 149`).
- `~/.cache/ms-playwright/.links/` registers 3 playwright installs: gstack
-  1.61.1 (1228), gsd-pi nvm 1.61.0 (1228), gsd-pi ~/.local 1.63.0 (1243).
-  Every dir on disk is referenced → 0 bytes reclaimable. Playwright already
-  prunes correctly on every `install` (`_deleteStaleBrowsers`). No pruner is
-  written here.
- The gstack submodule is intentionally dirty: `package.json` + `bun.lock`
-  carry the BDR-029 bump; `.gitmodules` sets `ignore = dirty`. It also carries
-  an untracked `?? bin/bin`.
- `update-all.sh:87` calls `git submodule update --remote` bare, swallows
-  stderr, and never re-applies the bump afterwards. THAT is the gap.
-
-## Hard constraints the code must respect
-
-**Inherited errexit.** All three callers run `set -euo pipefail` and source
-the lib. `gstack_bump_playwright_if_unsupported` and `gstack_browsers_report`
-are called as bare statements, so they MUST `return 0` on every path and every
-capture inside them takes `|| true`.
-`gstack_submodule_update_with_bump` is the ONE exception: it returns non-zero
-on failure and is therefore called ONLY as an `if` condition, keeping
-`update-all.sh:87`'s existing `if / else warn` shape. An offline update stays
-non-fatal, exactly as today.
-
-**Printer names.** The lib defines `_gspw_ok`, `_gspw_warn`, `_gspw_info` and
-NEVER a bare `ok`/`warn`/`info`/`pass`/`fail`. `doctor.sh:22` sources the lib
-before every check, so bare names would override `doctor.sh:12-15` and
-silently disconnect its `ERRORS`/`WARNS` counters.
-
-**No destructive command in the lib, at all.** No `rm`, `rmdir`, `unlink`,
-`truncate`, `mv`, and no `git checkout`/`reset`/`clean`/`stash`. Contract
-criteria 4 and 6 both grep for this.
-
-**macOS-safe.** No `timeout` without a `command -v` guard (absent from stock
-macOS), no `readlink -f` (absent before Monterey 12.3), no `md5sum`, no
-`sed -i` without a suffix, no bash-4-only expansions (`${x,,}`), no `grep -P`.
-
-## Files
-
-1. `lib/gstack-playwright.sh` — NEW. Sourceable lib + verb dispatcher. No
-   `set -euo pipefail` at top level (mirrors `lib/detect-plugins.sh`).
-   Dispatcher guarded by `[ "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" = "${0}" ]`, exposing
-   `browsers-report` ONLY. Any other argument → `usage:` on stderr, exit 2.
-   The write functions stay sourced-only: a CLI verb would expose
-   `bun add playwright@latest` as a command-line entry point.
-
-   - `_gspw_ok` / `_gspw_warn` / `_gspw_info <msg>` — fixed-prefix printers.
-   - `gstack_pw_ostag [os_release_path]` — prints `ubuntu<VERSION_ID>` for
-     Ubuntu, nothing otherwise. The capture takes `|| true`: the moved line
-     exits 1 on every non-Ubuntu host and would abort the caller under
-     inherited errexit. `return 0` always.
-   - `gstack_pw_supports <playwright_core_lib_dir> <ostag>` — 0/1 by grep.
-   - `gstack_bump_playwright_if_unsupported <gstack_dir>` — BDR-029 logic,
-     parameterized. Prepends `$HOME/.bun/bin` to PATH when `bun` is not
-     resolvable (LRN-036). Wraps ALL THREE bun invocations
-     (`bun install --frozen-lockfile`, the `bun install` fallback,
-     `bun add playwright@latest`) in `timeout 300` when `command -v timeout`
-     succeeds, plain otherwise. Exit 124 from any of them → `_gspw_warn` and
-     `return 0` WITHOUT attempting the bump: a TERM'd install leaves
-     `node_modules` half-written, and the support grep would then read a
-     truncated tree. One `_gspw_info` line before the network work so a
-     stalled registry is visible. `return 0` on every path (BDR-029
-     non-fatal).
-   - `gstack_submodule_update_with_bump <repo> [sub_path]`:
-     1. `git -C "$repo" submodule update --remote "$sub"`, stderr captured.
-     2. exit 0 → `gstack_bump_playwright_if_unsupported "$repo/$sub"` →
-        `return 0`.
-     3. exit != 0 → `_gspw_warn` with git's own message, verbatim and
-        unparsed. Then, when `git -C "$sub" status --porcelain --
-        package.json bun.lock` is non-empty, one extra `_gspw_info` hint line
-        naming the local Playwright bump and pointing at `make plugin`.
-        `return 1`. NOTHING in the working tree is touched.
-     No locale pin is needed: git's message is displayed, never parsed for a
-     decision. The hint is advisory, so its constant-true condition is
-     correct here, unlike the withdrawn recovery branch where it gated a
-     destructive step.
-   - `_gspw_browser_referenced <playwright_core_path> <dir_name>` — does that
-     install require this cache directory? Splits `<dir_name>` into name +
-     revision on the LAST `-`, then normalizes `_` → `-` on the name
-     (Playwright writes `chromium_headless_shell-1228` while `browsers.json`
-     says `chromium-headless-shell`; without this, two live directories are
-     reported unreferenced forever). Matches the base `revision` OR any value
-     under that browser's `revisionOverrides` (webkit and ffmpeg carry them
-     for mac and debian11 and ubuntu20.04 hosts). awk only: no jq, no
-     python3, no fallback ladder.
-   - `_gspw_install_label <playwright_core_path>` — `<dir-before-node_modules>
-     <version>`, e.g. `gstack 1.61.1`, `gsd-pi 1.63.0`.
-   - `gstack_browsers_report [cache_dir]` — read-only. Resolves the cache as
-     `${1:-${PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH:-$HOME/.cache/ms-playwright}}`; the
-     documented value `0` means "bundle into node_modules", so `0` and any
-     non-directory degrade to the silent no-cache path. Prints the header
-     `Playwright browsers`, the total from `du -sh … || true`, one line per
-     cache dir matching `*-<digits>` with the installs requiring it, then
-     `<N> unreferenced, <M> broken link(s)`. When N or M > 0, one
-     `_gspw_warn` naming them and the remedy, phrased without the words `rm`
-     or `mv` (criterion 6 word-greps the source): "re-run `playwright
-     install`, which prunes stale revisions". A dir whose NAME is listed by
-     some install but at another revision counts as `unknown revision`, not
-     unreferenced. `return 0` on every path.
-
-2. `install-plugins.sh` — delete the inline function (294-321), source the lib
-   next to detect-plugins (line 30), call site at ~370 becomes
-   `gstack_bump_playwright_if_unsupported "$GSTACK_DIR"`.
-
-3. `update-all.sh` — source the lib next to detect-plugins (line 19). Line 87
-   becomes `if gstack_submodule_update_with_bump "$REPO"; then` and the
-   existing `else warn …` arm is KEPT verbatim. No other structural change.
-
-4. `doctor.sh` — source the lib next to detect-plugins (line 22). Add its own
-   `── Playwright browsers ──` section (NOT nested under gstack: 2 of the 3
-   registered installs are gsd-pi), called as `gstack_browsers_report || true`.
-
-5. `lib/tests/gstack-playwright.test.sh` — NEW, auto-globbed by `make test`.
-
-## Edge cases
-
- Every public function except the update returns 0 under the callers'
-  `set -euo pipefail`, including the all-zero-counts case, which is this
-  machine's nominal state and would otherwise kill `doctor.sh` before its
-  summary and take `update-all.sh:519` down with it.
- `.links` entry whose target is gone or whose `browsers.json` is unreadable
-  → counted as a broken link, never dereferenced further.
- Two installs of the same tool at different versions → both labels listed.
- gstack submodule absent → bump and update both no-op 0.
- Sourcing the lib prints nothing and does not change the caller's options.
-
-## Tests (`lib/tests/gstack-playwright.test.sh`)
-
-Shape of `lib/tests/fast-libs.test.sh` (`check` helper, `PASS=n FAIL=n` last
-line, `mktemp -d` + trap). git 2.53 defaults `protocol.file` to `user`, which
-blocks submodule clone and fetch. The fixture git calls are not enough: the
-`git submodule update --remote` under test runs INSIDE the lib, in a fresh
-process. So the test exports, for the whole test process,
-`GIT_CONFIG_COUNT=1 GIT_CONFIG_KEY_0=protocol.file.allow
-GIT_CONFIG_VALUE_0=always`, which the lib's own git inherits. Fixtures use
-`git init -b main` with `submodule.<name>.branch = main` set explicitly, so
-`--remote` resolves the way production does.
-
- `T1-ostag-ubuntu` / `T2-ostag-other`: fixture os-release files.
- `T3-errexit-safe`: the bump called as a bare statement under
-  `set -euo pipefail` with a non-Ubuntu os-release → the script reaches the
-  next line. Regression test for the latent abort.
- `T4-supports-hit` / `T5-supports-miss`: fixture lib dir with and without the
-  tag. Proves idempotence both ways without invoking bun.
- `T6-update-success-bumps`: fixture superproject + submodule, an upstream
-  commit, bump stubbed by redefining it after sourcing → update succeeds, the
-  stub ran once, returns 0.
- `T7-update-conflict-nondestructive`: local edit to the submodule's
-  `package.json` plus a conflicting upstream commit → returns non-zero, BOTH
-  bump-owned files are byte-identical to before the call, and the hint line
-  was printed. Carries the literal `update-conflict` (contract criterion 4).
- `T8-no-destructive-command`: greps the lib source for `git
-  checkout|reset|clean|stash` and for `rm|rmdir|unlink|truncate|mv` outside
-  comments. Stronger than criterion 6 alone.
- `T9-report-referenced`, `T10-report-underscore-dir`
-  (`chromium_headless_shell-1228` against a `chromium-headless-shell` entry),
-  `T11-report-unreferenced`, `T12-report-broken-link`,
-  `T13-report-revision-override`: fixture cache + `.links` → fixture
-  playwright-core dirs with hand-written `browsers.json`.
- `T14-report-zero-counts-exit-0`: everything referenced → exit 0. The nominal
-  case, not covered by the absent-dir case.
- `T15-report-no-cache` / `T16-report-browsers-path-zero`: exit 0, nothing on
-  stderr.
- `T17-source-safe`: sourcing emits nothing.
-
-## Disposition (STEP 0.6)
-
- honors **BDR-029** by keeping the bump OS-gated, idempotent, non-fatal, and
-  by closing its stated caveat: the bump is now re-applied after every
-  successful update, not only at the next `make plugin`.
- honors **LRN-024** by extracting a helper and refactoring the existing
-  caller before adding the other callers. Deviations from "code MOVED not
-  changed" are named: `|| true` on the ostag capture (a latent abort on every
-  non-Ubuntu host, reproduced), and the `timeout` guard.
- honors **LRN-070** by never touching the submodule working tree at all. The
-  revision that did (discard, retry, restore) was withdrawn at the gate.
- honors **LRN-071** (recurrent 3x) by returning the update's real status, not
-  a non-fatal helper's 0.
- honors **LRN-040** by touching layer 1 only; `GSTACK_CHROMIUM_NO_SANDBOX`
-  is untouched.
- honors **LRN-085** by keeping the update idempotent, presence-guarded, no
-  `--force`.
- honors **LRN-036** by putting `$HOME/.bun/bin` on PATH inside the lib.
- honors **LRN-002** by grepping the moved function name repo-wide, readers
-  included.
- **LRN-038** already seen: the host-platform override is a dead end.
- BDR-029's reference line (`decisions.md:544`) and BLK-008's caveat
-  (`blockers.md:118`) describe behavior this plan changes. Registries are
-  append-only, so the plan does NOT edit them: the /feat CAPITALIZE step
-  owns the superseding entry.

-# PLAN — default-profile-full (feat) — REVISED after challenge (r3)
- date: 2026-09-25 | contract: contracts/2026-09-25-default-profile-full-1254.md
- branch: feature/default-profile-full
- r3 (confirmation pass): Step 11 re-applies an existing selection with
-  `set "$SEL"` (Steps 2 and 10 re-park gstack / re-link externals on every
-  run), `gstack on` messages stop claiming "all gstack", seed lists emil,
-  T2b proves `gstack off` trims with no cache, two out-of-scope citers of
-  `reset`/`current` join the scope.
- r2: closes correctness BLOCKER 1 / MAJOR 2-3 / MINOR 4-7, robustness
-  BLOCKER 1 / MAJOR 2 / MINOR 3-5, simplicity MINOR 1-3. Line numbers dropped
-  on purpose: the orchestrator's `chore(21st)` commit lands BEFORE dispatch
-  and shifts them — refer to functions and anchors.
-
-## Ground truth the plan is built on (verified on the live tree)
-
- gstack is OFF by default (BDR-030): a real tree has ZERO gstack symlinks in
-  `skills/` and ZERO `gstack__*` parked. `set`/`reset` LINK the listed skills
-  from the submodule; `disable_skill gstack` parks only what is present in
-  `skills/`. So "parked count == 0" says nothing about which profile is on.
-  The old `cmd_current` fast path keyed on that count — it goes away.
- Every `apply` / `set` / `reset` writes `.active-profile`. Therefore: cache
-  absent, empty, or legacy `none` ⇔ no profile was ever selected (or the old
-  reset ran). That is the ONE signal "no profile selected" keys on, everywhere.
- The 21st pack: staged into `skills-external/21st-*`, symlinked on demand;
-  `full` lists the five design skills as `external`; the two publishing
-  skills are never listed.
-
-## Approach
-
- `DEFAULT_PROFILE="full"` declared once in `lib/profile.sh`, right after
-  `ACTIVE_CACHE`, comment: the profile in force when none is selected.
- Two tiny cache helpers next to `write_active()`:
-  - `read_cache()` → first line of `$ACTIVE_CACHE`, ALL whitespace stripped
-    (`tr -d '[:space:]'`, CRLF-proof); empty string when the file is missing.
-    Must not trip `set -euo pipefail` (`2>/dev/null || true`).
-  - `active_profile()` → `read_cache`, or `$DEFAULT_PROFILE` when that is
-    empty or the literal `none`.
-  Every reader of the cache in the lib goes through them.
- `cmd_reset` = go to the default profile: `info "Resetting to the default
-  profile: $DEFAULT_PROFILE (exclusive — enables its list, parks any non-listed
-  gstack or managed item currently on)"` then `cmd_set "$DEFAULT_PROFILE"`
-  ([gated] Q1). `cmd_set` → `cmd_apply` → `write_active` already records the
-  label. No `write_active "none"` anywhere.
- `cmd_current` becomes LABEL-DRIVEN (this replaces the cross-profile
-  best-guess scan and its parked-count fast path — both keyed on a premise
-  that is false under BDR-030):
-  1. `label="$(active_profile)"`; if `$PROFILES_DIR/$label.profile` is
-     missing → `echo "$label (unknown profile — no lib/profiles/$label.profile; run: profile reset)"`, rc 0.
-  2. `profile_match "$label"` → prints `<available> <total>` (the existing
-     per-entry `skill_status` loop, extracted into a helper: `enabled` /
-     `installed` count as available). `pct = available*100/total` (0 when
-     total is 0).
-  3. `parked` = count of `skills-disabled/gstack__*` (existing find).
-  4. Output, ONE line, first word = the label:
-     - `read_cache` empty or `none` →
-       `"$label (default — not applied yet, ${pct}% of its items enabled; run: profile reset)"`
-     - otherwise →
-       `"$label (${pct}% match, ${parked} gstack skills disabled)"`
-  No "all gstack skills enabled" claim anywhere. `set X` then `current`
-  always names X (the SKILL.md "contradiction" failure family disappears).
- `cmd_gstack on`: messages must not claim "all gstack": 0 parked →
-  `info "nothing parked — gstack skills are linked per profile (set/apply/reset)"`;
-  else `ok "$parked parked gstack skills restored"`. Behaviour unchanged.
- `cmd_gstack off`: `active="$(active_profile)"`; keep the existing "profile
-  file missing" error (rc 1) for a cache naming an unknown profile; drop the
-  `none` special-case (unreachable now).
- `hooks/statusline.sh`: read the constant once —
-  `DEFAULT_PROFILE=$(sed -n 's/^DEFAULT_PROFILE="\([^"]*\)".*/\1/p' "$REPO/lib/profile.sh" 2>/dev/null)`,
-  `[ -n "$DEFAULT_PROFILE" ] || DEFAULT_PROFILE=full` (unreadable-lib
-  fallback only). `PROFILE=$(head -n1 cache 2>/dev/null | tr -d '[:space:]')`;
-  empty or `none` → `$DEFAULT_PROFILE`. No call into profile.sh (speed).
- `install-plugins.sh` ([gated] Q2):
-  - Step 8.7: DELETE the unconditional "Default-disabled" park block (the
-    `TFD_STATUS` … `toggle-external.sh disable 21st` block and its `else`
-    branch, keep the surrounding `echo ""`). Replace by a 3-line comment:
-    the pack's state is governed by profiles — the default profile (Step 11)
-    turns the five design skills on, the two publishing skills stay parked;
-    a re-run never re-parks what a profile or the user enabled.
-    Update the Step 8.7 header comment's "installed but DISABLED by default"
-    + the trailing "Default policy: pack DISABLED at install time…" lines
-    to the same statement (no counts).
-  - NEW Step 11 AFTER the Step 10 `link.sh` refresh, BEFORE the `# SUMMARY`
-    banner, same banner style as the other steps:
-    ```
-    # ============================================================

-## Files

- lib/profile.sh — `DEFAULT_PROFILE`, `read_cache()`, `active_profile()`,
-  `profile_match()`, `cmd_reset`, `cmd_current` (rewritten), `cmd_gstack`
-  off branch, header + `usage()` text.
- hooks/statusline.sh — default from the lib, cache normalisation.
- lib/tests/profile-default.test.sh — NEW. Harness copied from
-  profile-set-managed.test.sh (`$FX`, fake `claude` shim logging calls,
-  `run()` with both `*_REPO_OVERRIDE`, `check()` + `PASS=/FAIL=` summary,
-  exit 1 on any FAIL). Fixture profiles: `full.profile` = `gs-a`, `gs-b`,
-  `emil-design-eng external`; `otherish.profile` = `gs-c`. Real-tree seed
-  (explicit `mkdir -p`): `$FX/skills`, `$FX/skills-disabled`,
-  `$FX/lib/profiles`, `$FX/bin`, `$FX/hooks`,
-  `$FX/skills-external/emil-design-eng` (external source, required for T5's
-  `emil linked` + `100% match`), `$FX/skills-external/gstack/gs-{a,b,c}`
-  each with a `SKILL.md`. gs-a/gs-b/gs-c exist ONLY under
-  `skills-external/gstack/`, NOTHING linked in `skills/`, no cache. Copy `hooks/statusline.sh` to `$FX/hooks/` so its
-  `$REPO` = `$FX`; statusline runs as `echo '{}' | bash "$FX/hooks/statusline.sh"`.
-  - T1 clean seed, no cache → `current` first word `full`, contains
-    `default — not applied yet`, does NOT contain `all gstack`.
-  - T2 clean seed, no cache → `gstack off` rc 0 (nothing to trim, no error).
-  - T2b `ln -s "$FX/skills-external/gstack/gs-c" "$FX/skills/gs-c"`, no cache
-    → `gstack off` rc 0; `skills-disabled/gstack__gs-c` exists, `skills/gs-a`
-    still absent (untouched). Then `rm` the parked link to return to the
-    clean seed.
-  - T3 cache `none` (written with a trailing `\r\n`) → `gstack off` rc 0.
-  - T4 cache `ghost` (no profile file) → `gstack off` rc 1;
-    `current` first word `ghost`, contains `unknown profile`.
-  - T5 clean seed → `reset` → cache reads `full`; gs-a and gs-b linked,
-    gs-c NOT linked, emil linked; `current` first word `full`, contains
-    `100% match`, does NOT contain `not applied`.
-  - T6 `set otherish` → `current` first word `otherish` (label-driven, even
-    though gs-c is the only gstack on) → then `reset` → gs-c parked
-    (`skills-disabled/gstack__gs-c`), gs-a on, cache `full`.
-  - T7 `set otherish` then `gstack on` (0 parked, cache `otherish`) →
-    `current` first word `otherish`, does NOT contain `default`.
-  - T8 statusline, no cache → `profile: full`.
-  - T9 statusline, cache `otherish` → `profile: otherish`.
-  - T10 statusline, cache `  none \r` → `profile: full`.
-  - T11 statusline reads the constant: `sed -i` the fixture's copied
-    `lib/profile.sh` to `DEFAULT_PROFILE="otherish"`, no cache →
-    `profile: otherish` (proves the sed read, not the literal fallback).
- skills/profile/SKILL.md — as above.
- Makefile — two help strings.
- install-plugins.sh — Step 8.7 park block removed + comments, Step 11,
-  summary line.
- agents/plugin-advisor.md — two citers of the old semantics: PHASE 3
-  OUTPUT `PROFILE:` line → `[active skill profile — name + match%, or
-  "<name> (default — not applied yet …)"]`; the paragraph starting "To
-  restore the full skill set:" (through its end) → "To go back to the
-  default profile: `bash $HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh reset` (= `set full`:
-  enables full's list, parks non-listed gstack/managed items, toggles the
-  managed plugins like any `set`)." Nothing else in the file.
- lib/toggle-external.sh — header comment only: the `bash lib/profile.sh
-  reset` line gains `# back to the default profile (full)`.
-
-## Executor guardrails
-
- Tests use the fixture repo + fake `claude` shim ONLY: never run the real
-  `claude plugin …`, never touch this machine's `skills/`, `skills-disabled/`
-  or `.active-profile` (there is none today — keep it that way).
- Never run `install-plugins.sh`, `link.sh`, `make plugin`, `make link`.
- Scope = the 8 files of the contract; CHANGELOG/README are doc-sync's job.
- The `none`/empty/absent normalisation is written in three places by
-  design (lib helper, statusline, installer): the statusline must stay
-  free of any profile.sh call, the installer must not depend on a lib
-  function. Each copy carries a one-line comment naming `active_profile()`
-  as the reference and uses the same `tr -d '[:space:]'` rule.
-
-## Edge cases
-
- Cache with trailing whitespace / CRLF → stripped before compare (T3, T10).
- Cache names a profile with no `.profile` file → `gstack off` rc 1 as
-  today; `current` says `unknown profile` and points at `reset`.
- `reset` on a real tree: links full's 34 gstack skills from the submodule
-  (BDR-030 on-demand), parks nothing unless a non-full gstack/managed item
-  was on (docs say exactly that — no "parks 20 skills" claim).
- statusline must stay fast: one `sed` on the lib, no subshell into
-  profile.sh; `$REPO/lib/profile.sh` unreadable → literal `full`.
- `set -euo pipefail` in both scripts: every `head` on a maybe-missing file
-  carries `2>/dev/null || true`; the installer's `reset` call carries
-  `|| warn`.
- `profile_match` total 0 → pct 0, no division by zero.
-
-## Disposition (STEP 0.6)
-
- honors LRN-020: `full` is the REAL default (reset applies it; install
-  applies it when nothing is selected); no label denotes absence; the
-  parenthetical carries applied-vs-in-force. `none` sentinel gone.
- honors BDR-017: full stays curated; `reset` docs describe what it enables
-  and parks without a fixed count.
- honors BDR-018: `gstack on|off` keeps the label; `off` reads the default
-  through `active_profile()`; `current` after `gstack on` names the cached
-  label (T7).
- honors BDR-030: `current` no longer infers anything from the parked
-  count; tests seed gstack as OFF like a real tree.
- honors BDR-079: `reset` reuses `cmd_set`; no new toggle path.
- honors BDR-093: the pack stays staged + symlinked on demand; its
-  install-time park is superseded by the profile rule ([gated] Q2), the
-  two publishing skills remain unlisted. Residue scrub is prose only.
- honors BDR-028: the installer's EXIT guard on settings.json is left
-  alone; Step 11 documents that plugin legs are install-immutable.
- honors LRN-023 (`cd -P`): untouched.

-# PLAN — 21st-signin-gate (feat, ad-hoc dispatch) — r3 (after confirmation pass)
- r3 closes the confirmation pass (robustness CONCERNS(1)): MAJOR 1 — the

-  (rendered `21st (whoami: rc=3 …)`) and the 11 block prints a CLI-specific
-  remedy for 21st instead of `claude plugin list`; MINOR 2 — classify on
-  stdout only (`2>/dev/null`), stderr never enters the match; MINOR 3 — rc
-  captured through `if line="$(…)"` under pipefail, and the `fail` stub prints
-  the signed-out sentence AND exits 3 so the test proves rc≠0 wins; MINOR 4 —
-  `</dev/null` on the whoami call (the gate loop reads the profile on stdin);
-  MINOR 5 — hermeticity precondition = `! PATH=/usr/bin:/bin command -v 21st`
-  and no `/usr/local/bin/21st`; MINOR 6 — MIRROR note at both sites: the auth
-  state is gate-only, `profile.sh:skill_status()` has no counterpart; MINOR 7
-  — doc offers "or run `21st login` in any terminal on this machine, then
-  reply"; MINOR 8 — a 12 after an explicit opt-out in the same run is
-  reported once, not re-asked. Also honors `API_KEY_21ST` next to
-  `TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN` (the CLI's second token env, per its getToken).

-
-## Ground truth (verified 2026-09-28)
- `lib/design-tool-gate.sh` (`set -euo pipefail`) checks the `21st` cli entry
-  with `command -v` only (`tool_active`, case `cli`). `ensure_21st_on_path`
-  probes `~/.local/bin`, `/usr/local/bin` and `~/.nvm/versions/node/*/bin`.
-  Exit codes: 0 ready · 11 ready-but-unverified · 10 incomplete · 2 error.
-  `REPO` is derived from the script path (no override); `PROFILE_SH` has
-  `DESIGN_GATE_PROFILE_SH`; `[ -x "$PROFILE_SH" ]` is required.
- `21st whoami` is a local token read, rc 0 both ways: `Logged in as <user>
-  (saved …).` or `Not logged in. Run \`21st login\`, or set TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN.`
-  The CLI is `#!/usr/bin/env node` under nvm: with a sanitized PATH it can
-  fail (rc≠0, "env: node: No such file") — that is NOT "signed out".
-  On this machine: installed, not signed in; the live gate today returns 0.
- Consumers: lib/design-gate.md §3 (verdict branches) and §4 (resume list);
-  skills/feat and skills/bugfix STEP 0.5 bullets; hotfix skips the gate.
- No hermetic test covers design-tool-gate.sh today. Existing suites copy
-  toggle-external.sh / profile.sh into fixtures — NOT touched by this plan.
-
-## Approach
-1. `lib/design-tool-gate.sh`:
-   - `REPO="${DESIGN_GATE_REPO_OVERRIDE:-$(cd -P … && pwd)}"` (fixture seam,
-     same idiom as PROFILE_REPO_OVERRIDE). Nothing new is sourced.
-   - New function `twentyfirst_auth_state` (≤ 25 logic lines): echoes `in`
-     when `${TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN:-}` or `${API_KEY_21ST:-}` is non-empty; else
-     `if line="$(timeout 15 21st whoami 2>/dev/null </dev/null | head -1)";
-     then rc=0; else rc=$?; fi` (pipefail is set: rc is 21st's rc, 124 on
-     timeout; stdout only, stderr never enters the match; stdin closed so a
-     CLI reading stdin cannot eat the gate's profile loop). `in` when rc=0
-     and the line starts with `Logged in as `; `out` when rc=0 and the line
-     starts with `Not logged in`; otherwise exactly
-     `unknown:whoami: rc=<rc> <first 60 chars of line, or "no output">`.
-     Comment: the token envs are honored when already present (a shell-
-     profile export), never requested in-session.
-   - `tool_active` case `cli`: `command -v` fails → `inactive`; name `21st` →
-     `case "$(twentyfirst_auth_state)"` in `in` → `active`, `out` →
-     `signedout`, `unknown:*` → `unknown:<diag>`; other cli names → `active`.
-   - Main loop: state `signedout` → `signedout+=("$name")`; state `unknown:*`
-     → `unverified_cli+=("$name (${state#unknown:})")`, rendered
-     `21st (whoami: rc=3 Something unexpected)`; the existing bare `unknown`
-     (claude unreachable) keeps filling `unverified`.
-   - Verdict order: blocking/manual → INCOMPLETE exit 10 (block unchanged).
-     Else signedout non-empty → print
-       `design toolchain: SIGN-IN REQUIRED — 21st CLI installed, not signed in`
-       `  ask the user to run in this session:  ! 21st login   (browser flow, saves a local token)`
-       `  then re-run this gate before any 21st step — never skip 21st silently`
-       plus the `also unverified` line(s) when either unverified array is
-     non-empty; exit 12.
-     Else unverified or unverified_cli non-empty → 11: one helper
-     `print_unverified` (≤ 25 logic lines) prints, for `unverified`, the
-     existing claude-unreachable block (`claude plugin list` remedy) and, for
-     `unverified_cli`, `  21st could not answer: <diag> — a CLI runtime/PATH
-     problem (node under nvm?), not a sign-in problem; fix it, then re-run`.
-     The 10 and 12 blocks reuse the same helper for their `also unverified`
-     lines so no block ever says "claude CLI unreachable" about 21st. Else 0.
-   - Header comment: exit codes line gains `12 = sign-in required (21st)`;
-     the `required-manual` paragraph gets two lines on the three auth states;
-     the MIRROR sentence ("tool_active MIRRORS profile.sh:skill_status()")
-     gains "except the 21st auth state, gate-only, no skill_status
-     counterpart".
-2. `lib/design-gate.md`:
-   - Exit-codes line: add `12 = sign-in required (21st installed, signed out)`.
-   - §3 new branch **12 / `SIGN-IN REQUIRED`** → STOP. Relay the script's
-     block. Ask the user to run `! 21st login` (the `!` prefix runs it in this
-     session, browser flow, saves a local token). END THE TURN and wait. On
-     the user's reply, re-run `design-tool-gate.sh` before any 21st step:
-     READY → continue; still 12 → ask again once, then offer the opt-out.
-     Explicit refusal — the user answers "proceed without 21st" (or words to
-     that effect) → say visibly `21st skipped for this run at your request`
-     and continue with the rest of the toolchain, 21st steps left out. Never
-     skip silently ("not logged in, so we don't use it" is the failure this
-     branch closes). Never run `21st login` yourself. `TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN` is
-     a shell-profile setting followed by a session restart, never an
-     in-session `export` (tool calls do not share a shell, and a secret does
-     not belong in the transcript).
-   - §3 **11** bullet: a `21st (whoami: rc=… …)` entry means the CLI could
-     not answer (runtime/PATH problem, node under nvm), so the remedy is the
-     diagnostic, not a sign-in; relay the script's own line.
-   - §3 **12** bullet also says: "or run `21st login` in any terminal on this
-     machine, then reply" (the token is a local file, any terminal works;
-     `! …` in-session is the convenient form, not the only one); and: after
-     an explicit opt-out, a later 12 in the same run is reported in one line,
-     never re-asked.
-   - §4 first paragraph: "(READY, after the user ran `/profile design`, or
-     after the sign-in re-run returns READY)".
-   - §IMPORTANT 21st bullet: add "signed out → exit 12: ask `! 21st login`,
-     wait, re-run; explicit opt-out only". §IMPORTANT MIRROR bullet: add
-     "except the 21st auth state: gate-only, no skill_status counterpart".
-3. `skills/feat/SKILL.md` and `skills/bugfix/SKILL.md` STEP 0.5 bullet →
-   "If signals found → run `design-tool-gate.sh`; INCOMPLETE → tell the user
-   to run `/profile design`; SIGN-IN REQUIRED → design-gate.md §3 (ask
-   `! 21st login`, wait) before proceeding." No restated remedy beyond that.
-4. `lib/tests/design-tool-gate.test.sh` (hermetic, `set -u`, `check` helper,
-   `trap 'rm -rf "$WORK"' EXIT`, style of lib/tests/skill-routing-census.test.sh):
-   - Precondition, loud: `! PATH=/usr/bin:/bin command -v 21st` and
-     `[ ! -e /usr/local/bin/21st ]` (the two places the sanitized test PATH
-     and `ensure_21st_on_path` could still find a real CLI) else print
-     `FAIL precondition: system-wide 21st present, CLI_ABSENT case not
-     hermetic` and count a FAIL.
-   - Fixture `$WORK/repo`: `lib/profiles/design.profile` holding
-     `# GATE-BLOCK: 21st ghost-skill` and entries `21st  cli`,
-     `ghost-skill  external`; `lib/profile.sh` = an executable stub that
-     `cat`s `$WORK/plain.txt` for `show design --plain` (per case the test
-     writes `cli\t21st` alone, or `cli\t21st` + `external\tghost-skill`);
-     `skills/` empty. `$WORK/bin/21st` = executable stub: `whoami` prints per
-     `$FAKE_21ST_MODE`: `in` → `Logged in as tester (saved locally).`,
-     `out` → `Not logged in. Run \`21st login\`, or set TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN.`,
-     `garbage` → `Something unexpected` (rc 0), `fail` → prints the exact
-     signed-out sentence AND exits 3 (proves rc≠0 overrides the sentence).
-   - Every gate run: `env -u TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN HOME=$WORK/home
-     PATH=$WORK/bin:/usr/bin:/bin DESIGN_GATE_REPO_OVERRIDE=$WORK/repo
-     DESIGN_GATE_PROFILE_SH=$WORK/repo/lib/profile.sh FAKE_21ST_MODE=<mode>
-     bash "$ROOT/lib/design-tool-gate.sh"` (CLAUDE_BIN irrelevant: no
-     plugin/mcp entry in the fixture).
-   - Stub positive control first: the stub prints the expected sentence for
-     `in` and `out` (`PASS STUB_CONTROL`).
-   - Cases, each `PASS <NAME>`: `SIGNED_IN_READY` (rc 0, `READY`);
-     `SIGNED_OUT_12` (rc 12, `SIGN-IN REQUIRED`, `21st login`, no
-     `INCOMPLETE`); `TOKEN_READY` (mode out + `TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN=x` → rc 0);
-     `CLI_ABSENT_10` (PATH without `$WORK/bin` → rc 10, `INCOMPLETE`);
-     `INCOMPLETE_WINS` (plain adds ghost-skill, mode out → rc 10,
-     `INCOMPLETE`, no `SIGN-IN REQUIRED` line); `UNKNOWN_11` (mode garbage →
-     rc 11, output has `whoami: rc=0` and `Something unexpected`, lacks
-     `21st login` and lacks `claude CLI unreachable`; mode fail → rc 11 with
-     `whoami: rc=3`). `TOKEN_READY` also checks `API_KEY_21ST=x` alone → rc 0.
-     Summary `PASS=n FAIL=m`, rc 1 on any FAIL.
-5. CHANGELOG `[Unreleased]` → Added: design gate `SIGN-IN REQUIRED` (exit 12)
-   when the 21st CLI is installed but signed out — the agent asks for
-   `! 21st login` and waits, explicit opt-out only; unknown whoami answers
-   surface as unverified with the diagnostic.
-
-## Edge cases
- `21st whoami` hang: `timeout 15` → rc 124 → `unknown`, exit 11 with the
-  diagnostic (not a sign-in loop).
- `TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN` set but invalid: the CLI decides at call time; the gate
-  honors the env var as `in` (documented).
- INCOMPLETE and signed out at once: 10 wins by construction (the re-run
-  after `/profile design` returns 12); no extra line.
- The fixture never sees the real `~/.nvm` (HOME redirected) and the test
-  fails loudly if a system-wide 21st exists.
- `set -euo pipefail`: the `whoami` capture must not abort the script on a
-  nonzero rc (run inside `if`, or `|| true`).
-
-## Tests
- lib/tests/design-tool-gate.test.sh (new); `make test suite=` for
-  doctrine-citers, design-toolchain-reminder (unchanged suites, stay green).
- shellcheck lib/design-tool-gate.sh lib/tests/design-tool-gate.test.sh.
-
-## Disposition (RELATED MEMORY)
- honors BDR-025 — GATE-BLOCK single source untouched; a state is added, not
-  a scope.
- honors BDR-093 — 21st auth is `21st login` / TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN, no key, no MCP.
- honors LRN-102 — the STOP asks in the turn's final text and ends the turn.

-  human, and an explicit refusal is an answer, never a silent skip.

-test files — the 2026-09-28 case: `sys.exit(1 if violations else 0)` in
-lib/tests/profile-census.test.sh (BLK-023).
-
-## The exact edit (lib/floor-guard.sh)
-1. SKIP_SUBSTRINGS keeps only the dotted/decorator forms:
-   ('.skip(', '.only(', 'it.todo(', '@pytest.mark.skip', '@unittest.skip', 't.Skip(').
-2. New `SKIP_IDENT_RE = re.compile(r'(?<![A-Za-z0-9_.])(?:xit|fit|xdescribe|fdescribe)\(')`
-   DIRECTLY UNDER the SKIP_SUBSTRINGS tuple (per-kind grouping, like
-   STUB_SUBSTRINGS + its regexes), with two comment lines: bare Jasmine/Jest
-   focus-or-skip calls; the lookbehind keeps `exit(`, `SystemExit(`,
-   `model.fit(` out. Plus one `# shortcut:` line: `def fit(` / `function
-   xit(` still match (space before), `xit (` and `xit.each(` still do not
-   (as before); upgrade path `(?<!def )(?<!function )` and `(?:\.each)?\s*\(`.
-3. `skip_kind(text)`: return 'SKIP' if any substring matches OR
-   `SKIP_IDENT_RE.search(text)`; else None. Still ≤ 25 logic lines, one
-   function.
-4. No waiver comment on the guard's own new lines: SKIP is only scanned on
-   test files (`is_test_file`: `test`/`spec`/`__tests__` in the path) and
-   lib/floor-guard.sh is not one; the new lines carry no SUPPRESS/STUB
-   trigger either. Header comment line 27 unchanged.
-
-## The exact edit (lib/tests/floor-guard.test.sh)
-After the SKIP block (:51-55), two blocks in the same style. Every `echo`
-that writes a trigger-looking line ends with the bash comment
-`# floor-guard: allow flip-test fixture` AFTER the closing quote (never
-inside the string): the test file's path contains `test`, so a later
-diff scan would otherwise flag the fixture line itself (informational
-WAIVED on a test file).
- SKIP_EXIT_CLEAN: `d=$(mk_repo skipexit)`; append three lines to
-  sample.test.js: `process.exit(1); // sys.exit(1)`, `model.fit(x);`,
-  `const p = profit(1);`; run; `check_kind SKIP_EXIT_CLEAN "$rc" 0 "$out"
-  'FLOOR GUARD: clean'`.
- SKIP_XIT_FLAGS: `d=$(mk_repo skipxit)`; append `  xit('skipped', () => {});`
-  (leading spaces on purpose); run; `check_kind SKIP_XIT_FLAGS "$rc" 2
-  "$out" 'FLOOR SKIP'`. Then two more repos in the same block proving the
-  rest of the alternation: `fit('focused', () => {});` → `check_kind
-  SKIP_FIT_FLAGS … 2 … 'FLOOR SKIP'`; `fdescribe('focused', () => {});` →
-  `check_kind SKIP_FDESCRIBE_FLAGS … 2 … 'FLOOR SKIP'`.
-Header comment (:2-3) gains "plus boundary cases for SKIP" after "one CLEAN
-fixture".

-# PLAN — skill-catalog-prune (feat, ad-hoc dispatch) — r4 (after confirmation pass)
- r4 closes the confirmation pass (robustness FATAL(4)): BLOCKER 1 — the
-  helper lib skips any non-skill dir holding a nested SKILL.md
-  (browser-skills/, node_modules/, openclaw/) and `.git*`/`node_modules`
-  by name, fixture `other/deep/SKILL.md`; MAJOR 2 — the three existing
-  profile/toggle suites copy lib/gstack-removed.sh into their fixture
-  (E1b scope); MAJOR 3 — the lib removes a stale `dst` symlink (gstack
-  ./setup plants `~/.claude/skills/gstack -> submodule`) and refuses a dst
-  that resolves inside src, fixture case added; MAJOR 4 — update-all.sh's
-  third copy of the block goes through the lib too (criterion 18); MINOR
-  5-8 — real restored count after the skip, policy message instead of the
-  setup hint, `len(x or '')` + stderr warn on fallback, E2 owns every
-  install-plugins.sh edit (E3 no longer touches it).
- date: 2026-09-28 | contract: contracts/2026-09-28-skill-catalog-prune-0554.md
- branch: feature/skill-catalog-prune
- executors: 4 feater (sonnet-pinned), parallel, disjoint file sets, same tree
- r3 closes: correctness MAJOR 1-3 / MINOR 4-9, robustness MAJOR 1-4 / MINOR
-  5-9, simplicity MAJOR 1 / MINOR 2-5. Named changes: whole-class gstack
-  helper links through one shared lib (E2), `GSTACK_REMOVED` denylist that
-  `gstack on` / `enable gstack` honor (E1b), `max` = union of every profile
-  (E1a), live `set full` as an oracle (criterion 16), census test with a
-  passing baseline then one mutant per invariant (E1a), description parser
-  reused from lib/skill-routing-census.py (E2), synced info line dropped,
-  stale r1 wording swept.
- r2: superset = `max`; full keeps the 11 redundant gstack (user rule: full
-  ⊇ every other profile, max = everything); parked = make-pdf, diagram,
-  21st trio; 21st trio out of full/web/web-full/design; freeze/bin link.
-
-## Ground truth (verified on the live tree, 2026-09-28)
-
- Catalog: 150 skills, 53.5k chars of descriptions; the harness lists only
-  ~19k chars of them with a description (least-invoked skills lose theirs).
-  78 skills are name-only in the current session.
- gstack skills are symlinked per profile (BDR-030), `full` is the default
-  (BDR-101). `profile.sh apply` is ADDITIVE (enables only); `set` and `reset`
-  park what the profile does not list (`disable_gstack_not_in`,
-  `disable_externals_not_in`, `disable_plugins_not_in`) then apply. So a
-  name dropped from full leaves the live tree only at the next `set full`
-  or `reset`; nothing runs that automatically. `gstack on`
-  (`enable_all_gstack`) and `lib/toggle-external.sh enable gstack` move
-  EVERY `skills-disabled/gstack__*` back, with no denylist.
- gstack skills hardcode `~/.claude/skills/gstack/<path>` for shared
-  assets, but link.sh (and a duplicate block in install-plugins.sh
-  STEP 2) only create `gstack/bin` and `gstack/browse/dist`. Census of the
-  hardcoded paths (`grep -rhoE '(~|\$HOME)/\.claude/skills/gstack/[A-Za-z0-9_./-]+'
-  skills-external/gstack/*/SKILL.md`): bin/* (dozens), scripts/jargon-list.json,
-  ETHOS.md, browse/bin/remote-slug, browse/dist/browse, design/dist/design,
-  extension/, lib/diagram-render/dist/diagram-render.html, make-pdf/dist/pdf,
-  freeze/bin/check-freeze.sh, careful/bin/check-careful.sh, */sections/*.md
-  (plan-*-review, cso, office-hours, design-consultation, document-release),
-  review/checklist.md, review/specialists/*.md, and other skills' SKILL.md
-  (office-hours/SKILL.md, gstack-upgrade/SKILL.md). Everything but `bin` and
-  `browse/dist` is unreachable today: make-pdf returns MAKE_PDF_NOT_AVAILABLE,
-  diagram BUNDLE_MISSING, the careful/guard/freeze hooks exit 127 and never
-  fire (LRN-096 class), cso and plan-*-review cannot read their sections.
- A global `skills/gstack -> skills-external/gstack` symlink is forbidden
-  (link.sh comment): the top-level gstack SKILL.md then lists as a duplicate
-  skill. Skill discovery reads `~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md`; a
-  `SKILL.md` must therefore never sit at `~/.claude/skills/gstack/SKILL.md`,
-  and no `<skill>/SKILL.md` is linked below `gstack/` either (only their
-  non-SKILL.md children), so the helper tree exposes no skill file.
- gstack `ship` resolves its base from `origin/HEAD` on Gitea → main; it
-  diffs and PRs against main, skipping develop. `land-and-deploy` runs
-  `gh pr merge --squash --delete-branch` then waits for the deploy.
- security-guidance 2.0.0: SessionStart venv, UserPromptSubmit baseline,
-  PostToolUse regex, Stop = direct POST /v1/messages (opus-4-7, thinking
-  10000) on every turn that changed source, commit/push = Agent SDK review
-  up to 18 turns. Log 2026-09-22→28: 0 findings, 1 recorded false positive
-  (EVAL-024). `ENABLE_STOP_REVIEW=0` is the plugin's own switch.
- settings.json has NO top-level `env` key today (create it). It is the
-  live `~/.claude/settings.json`: validate JSON right after the edit.
- doctor.sh: `find -maxdepth 2` without `-L` → 34 skills; `grep
-  '^description:' | head -1` → block scalars count 0 chars. doctor.sh runs
-  under `set -euo pipefail`. `lib/skill-routing-census.py` already has a
-  tested `extract_description()` handling `|`/`>` blocks (hyphenated file
-  name → load with importlib, not `import`).
- Specialized profiles carry exactly ONE name full lacks: pr-review-toolkit
-  (audit.profile; plugin deliberately out of full, audit 2026-07-02 #12,
-  ~2.2k tokens when enabled; MANAGED_PLUGINS so `set` toggles it).
- Already done live (user go): brightdata disabled (`false` in
-  settings.json), frontend-design@claude-plugins-official uninstalled
-  (entry removed). `lib/gstack-removed.sh` written by the orchestrator:
-  `GSTACK_REMOVED=(…9…)` + `gstack_is_removed <name>`.
-
-## Approach
-
-### E1a — profiles + census suite + profile docs
-Files: lib/profiles/{full,dev,backend,web,web-full,design}.profile,
-lib/profiles/max.profile (new), lib/tests/profile-census.test.sh (new),
-skills/profile/SKILL.md, README.md, USAGE.md.
-
-1. Remove the 9 `GSTACK_REMOVED` entries (`ship land-and-deploy setup-deploy
-   autoplan context-save learn careful guard design-shotgun`) from EVERY
-   profile that lists them (dev, backend, web, web-full, design, full).
-   Comment lines describing only them go too. Keep `freeze` and `unfreeze`.
-2. `full.profile`: additionally remove the 5 parked entries `make-pdf
-   diagram 21st-ai 21st-ui-explore 21st-ui-review`. The 11 redundant gstack
-   (plan-ceo/design/devex-review, spec, review, retro, investigate, canary,
-   qa, open-gstack-browser, setup-browser-cookies) STAY. Rewrite `# DESC:`:
-   default profile; carries everything every other profile carries (user
-   rule 2026-09-28, one exception: pr-review-toolkit); no broken or
-   doctrine-breaking gstack (see lib/gstack-removed.sh); parked tools live
-   in `max`. The pr-review-toolkit comment block stays.
-3. `web`, `web-full`, `design`: also remove the 21st trio lines.
-4. New `lib/profiles/max.profile`: header `# DESC: Everything — full + the
-   parked tools (make-pdf, diagram, 21st-ai/ui-explore/ui-review) +
-   pr-review-toolkit; switch here when one of them is wanted` and the marker
-   line `# SUPERSET-OF: full`. Content = new full + the 5 parked names in
-   their original sections + `pr-review-toolkit  plugin@claude-code-plugins`
-   (the audit.profile line). NEVER a `GSTACK_REMOVED` name. Invariant: max ⊇
-   union(every profile) − GSTACK_REMOVED.
-5. `lib/tests/profile-census.test.sh` (hermetic, `set -u`, `check` helper
-   and `trap 'rm -rf "$WORK"' EXIT` like lib/tests/skill-routing-census.test.sh):
-   - Top of file: `source "$ROOT/lib/gstack-removed.sh"` (REMOVED comes
-     from the single source), `PARKED=(make-pdf diagram 21st-ai
-     21st-ui-explore 21st-ui-review)`, and `FULL_EXCEPTIONS=(pr-review-toolkit)`
-     with the reason on comment lines ABOVE the array (names only inside it:
-     contract criterion 15 parses the parentheses).
-   - ONE assertion function `census_check <profiles_dir>` that runs an
-     inline python3 heredoc taking the dir and the three lists as argv.
-     Entry = first whitespace token of a non-blank line whose first non-blank
-     char is not `#` (what `read_profile` links). It prints ONE reason code
-     per violation on stdout — `REMOVED_LISTED:<profile>:<name>`,
-     `NO_SUPERSET` / `MANY_SUPERSETS`, `SUPERSET_GAP:<name>` (full or a
-     parked/exception name missing from the `# SUPERSET-OF: full` profile),
-     `MAX_GAP:<name>` (a name some profile carries that max lacks),
-     `FULL_GAP:<name>` (a name a non-max profile carries that full lacks,
-     minus REMOVED, the 21st trio and FULL_EXCEPTIONS) — and returns 0 iff
-     no violation.
-   - Live part: `census_check "$ROOT/lib/profiles"` must return 0
-     (`check T1-live-clean`).
-   - Fixture part under `mktemp -d`: `baseline/` = a minimal profiles dir
-     (full.profile with `alpha`, `beta`; qa.profile with `alpha`;
-     max.profile with the marker + `alpha`, `beta`, `parked-x`; PARKED and
-     FULL_EXCEPTIONS overridden for the fixture through the argv lists).
-     The baseline MUST return 0 → print `FIXTURE_BASELINE_OK`. Then three
-     mutants, each a copy of baseline with ONE change, each MUST return
-     non-zero AND print its own code: `ship` added to qa.profile →
-     `REMOVED_LISTED:qa:ship` → `FIXTURE_REMOVED_DETECTED`; `beta` deleted
-     from max.profile → `SUPERSET_GAP:beta` → `FIXTURE_SUPERSET_DETECTED`;
-     `gamma` added to qa.profile only → `FULL_GAP:gamma` →
-     `FIXTURE_FULLGAP_DETECTED`. A detected mutant counts as a PASS of the
-     test (it is the positive control); a mutant that returns 0 is a FAIL.
-   - Summary `PASS=n FAIL=m`, rc 1 on any FAIL. Shell helpers ≤ 25 logic
-     lines; the python heredoc is one function per invariant.
-6. Docs: skills/profile/SKILL.md table gains the `max` row ("Everything —
-   full + parked tools (make-pdf, diagram, 21st generation trio) +
-   pr-review-toolkit") and full's row reads "Default — everything the other
-   profiles carry, minus broken or doctrine-breaking gstack"; README line
-   175 and 357-360 list `max`; README line 179 drops `context-save,
-   context-restore` from its example list; USAGE line 166 lists `max`.
-
-### E1b — denylist honored by every "gstack back" path
-Files: lib/profile.sh, lib/toggle-external.sh, lib/tests/gstack-removed.test.sh (new),
-lib/tests/{profile-default,profile-set-managed,toggle-external-repo-resolution}.test.sh
-(fixture copy line only).
-
-1. lib/profile.sh: `source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/gstack-removed.sh"`
-   next to the other top-level definitions. `enable_all_gstack`: skip a
-   parked entry whose name `gstack_is_removed` (leave it parked, `info
-   "skipped (removed by policy, lib/gstack-removed.sh): $name"`).
-   `enable_skill` gstack branch: refuse a removed name with `warn` and
-   return 0 (a profile listing one is a census failure, not a crash).
-2. lib/toggle-external.sh `enable gstack` loop (the `for entry in
-   "$DISABLED_DIR"/gstack__*` block): same skip, same source line
-   (`source "$(dirname "$0")/gstack-removed.sh"`; note toggle-external
-   resolves REPO from `$0`, keep that idiom).
-3. `enable_all_gstack` echoes the REAL restored count on stdout (skipped
-   names excluded); `cmd_gstack on` prints that count, not the pre-computed
-   `parked_gstack_count` (profile.sh ~651-655). toggle-external.sh: when
-   the loop skipped ≥ 1 removed name and moved 0, print "only policy-removed
-   skills remain parked (lib/gstack-removed.sh)" and NOT the "re-run gstack
-   setup" hint (setup would relink the 9 removed skills).
-4. The three existing suites copy only profile.sh / toggle-external.sh into
-   their fixture `lib/` and would die on the new `source`: add
-   `cp "$ROOT/lib/gstack-removed.sh" "$FX/lib/"` (same for `$SANDBOX/repo/lib/`)
-   in lib/tests/profile-default.test.sh (:27), lib/tests/profile-set-managed.test.sh
-   (:22), lib/tests/toggle-external-repo-resolution.test.sh (:19). No other
-   change to those suites.
-5. `lib/tests/gstack-removed.test.sh`: fixture repo under mktemp (the
-   `PROFILE_REPO_OVERRIDE` / `TOGGLE_EXTERNAL_REPO_OVERRIDE` harness as
-   lib/tests/profile-default.test.sh and toggle-external-repo-resolution.test.sh
-   use it — read them first): `skills-disabled/gstack__ship` and
-   `gstack__browse` present → `profile.sh gstack on` restores browse only,
-   ship stays parked, output names the skip; same for `toggle-external.sh
-   enable gstack`; `gstack_is_removed` positive + negative. `PASS=n FAIL=m`.
-
-### E2 — wiring: shared gstack helper links + doctor catalog stats
-Files: lib/gstack-links.sh (new), link.sh, install-plugins.sh (STEP 2 helper
-block, STEP 5 comment blocks, summary lines — E2 owns EVERY edit of this
-file), update-all.sh (its helper-link block), lib/doctor-skills.sh (new),
-doctor.sh, lib/tests/gstack-links.test.sh (new), lib/tests/doctor-skills.test.sh (new).
-
-1. `lib/gstack-links.sh` — `link_gstack_helpers <src> <dst>` (split into
-   small helpers, each ≤ 25 logic lines, no `set -e`, fallback ok/warn/info
-   like lib/vendor-skills.sh):
-   a. Guard: if `$dst` is a symlink → `rm -f "$dst"` + info (gstack ./setup
-      plants `~/.claude/skills/gstack -> skills-external/gstack` when the
-      dir is absent; link.sh's old stale-link removal moves here). Then if
-      `realpath -m "$dst"` is inside `realpath "$src"` → warn, return 1
-      (never write into the submodule). `mkdir -p "$dst"`.
-   b. For every top-level entry E of `$src`, skip by name `.git*`,
-      `node_modules`, `SKILL.md`. If E is a dir holding its own `SKILL.md`
-      (a gstack skill) → `mkdir -p "$dst/E"` and `ln -sfn` each child of E
-      except `SKILL.md`. Else if E is a dir and `find -L "$src/E" -name
-      SKILL.md -print -quit` is non-empty (browser-skills/, openclaw/ …) →
-      skip with info (would expose a nested skill). Else (file, or a clean
-      non-skill dir such as bin, scripts, lib, design, extension, ETHOS.md)
-      → `ln -sfn "$src/E" "$dst/E"`.
-   c. Idempotent (`ln -sfn`), removes nothing but the stale dst symlink,
-      echoes the number of links created THIS run on stdout (callers add it
-      to CHANGED) and prints one `ok` summary on stderr. Rationale comment:
-      the census above + why no SKILL.md is ever exposed under `<dst>`.
-2. link.sh: replace the stale-global-link removal AND the `bin` /
-   `browse/dist` blocks (lines ~55-91) with `source "$REPO/lib/gstack-links.sh"`
-   + one call `n=$(link_gstack_helpers "$REPO/skills-external/gstack"
-   "$CLAUDE/skills/gstack")` guarded by `[ -d "$REPO/skills-external/gstack" ]`,
-   `CHANGED=$((CHANGED + n))`; keep the "submodule not found" warning; the
-   comment says the helper tree replaces the hand-made links and exposes no
-   SKILL.md.
-3. install-plugins.sh STEP 2, the duplicate `GSTACK_DST` block (lines
-   ~375-390): replace with the same source + call (after ./setup, so the
-   lib's guard removes the global link setup may have planted).
-   update-all.sh, its helper-link block (~106-116, `ln -sf` without `-n`
-   → would nest `src/bin/bin` on a re-run): same source + call, right after
-   the submodule update. STEP 5 comment blocks + summary lines: E2 does
-   them (moved from E3, see E3.2 text below — same wording).
-4. `lib/doctor-skills.sh` — `skill_catalog_stats <skills_dir>`: prints
-   `<count> <desc_chars>` on stdout, ALWAYS exits 0 (prints `0 0` when the
-   dir is absent or python fails). Implementation: one `python3 -` call that
-   loads `lib/skill-routing-census.py` via `importlib.util.spec_from_file_location`
-   (hyphenated name), globs `<dir>/*/SKILL.md` (glob follows symlinks),
-   sums `len(extract_description(path) or '')` (the function takes a PATH
-   and returns None when there is no description). On any python failure
-   print `0 0` to stdout AND one `warn` line to stderr (doctor shows the
-   failure instead of a healthy-looking zero). No awk parser.
-5. doctor.sh token block: replace the loop + `find` with
-   `read -r SKILL_COUNT SKILL_DESC_CHARS < <(skill_catalog_stats "$HOME/.claude/skills")`
-   after `source "$REPO/lib/doctor-skills.sh"`. Constants: DELETE the
-   gstack (2750), context7 (200) and graphifyy (300) lines — their skills
-   sit in `~/.claude/skills` and are counted by the stats (one comment line
-   says so); superpowers 800 → 1500 (~900 t session-start injection + ~600 t
-   of 15 descriptions, measured 2026-09-28); ui-ux-pro-max 400 → 670 (7
-   descriptions, 2 669 chars, measured 2026-09-28). The "measured ~11.4k
-   post-audit, LRN-088" note → "(re-measure after a catalog change;
-   LRN-088)". NO synced-bucket line (dropped: out of the request's scope;
-   noted as a TODO follow-up by the orchestrator).
-6. Tests. `lib/tests/gstack-links.test.sh`: fixture src under mktemp with
-   `bin/x`, `ETHOS.md`, `SKILL.md`, `browse/{SKILL.md,dist/browse}`,
-   `review/{SKILL.md,checklist.md,specialists/a.md}`, `.git/HEAD`,
-   `other/deep/SKILL.md`, `node_modules/pkg/SKILL.md` → after
-   `link_gstack_helpers`, `dst/bin`, `dst/ETHOS.md`, `dst/browse/dist`,
-   `dst/review/checklist.md`, `dst/review/specialists` resolve;
-   `find -L dst -name SKILL.md` is EMPTY (so no `dst/SKILL.md`,
-   `dst/browse/SKILL.md`, `dst/other`, `dst/node_modules`), `dst/.git`
-   absent; second run echoes 0 and changes nothing (idempotent); a dst
-   that is a symlink to src → the symlink is removed, dst becomes a real
-   dir, and `find src -type l` stays EMPTY (nothing written into src); a
-   dst path inside src (`src/helpers`) → warn + rc 1, nothing created. `lib/tests/doctor-skills.test.sh`:
-   fixture skills dir with an inline description, a `|` block scalar, a
-   `>-` block, a SKILL.md with no description, a symlinked skill dir →
-   count and chars equal the hand-computed sum; absent dir → `0 0` rc 0.
-   `PASS=n FAIL=m` summaries.
-

-   and add, at the end of the 21st sentence in that section, "21st-ai /
-   ui-explore / ui-review are `max`-profile only." Keep every line ≤ 80 chars.
-5. skills/deploy/SKILL.md table: drop the `/land-and-deploy` and
-   `/setup-deploy` rows; add one row "Merge a finished branch | `gitflow
-   finish` on an explicit human signal (skills/gitflow)".
-6. CHANGELOG `[Unreleased]`: Removed (brightdata synced plugin disabled,
-   frontend-design official plugin uninstalled, 9 gstack skills out of every
-   profile with reasons, `GSTACK_REMOVED` denylist honored by `gstack on` /
-   `enable gstack`), Changed (full = everything the other profiles carry,
-   `max` = full + parked + pr-review-toolkit, 21st trio max-only,
-   security-guidance Stop review off, doctor constants), Fixed (gstack helper
-   tree: make-pdf, diagram, sections, jargon list, ETHOS, freeze hook now
-   fires — `/unfreeze` clears `~/.gstack/freeze-dir.txt`; doctor.sh
-   undercount; "0 tokens" claims; Ship/PR routing), Known residual (kept
-   gstack skills still carry upstream prose routing to /ship,
-   /land-and-deploy, /context-save, /autoplan, /design-shotgun; 21st-ui-build
-   and 21st-cli-use point to the max-only trio — a Skill call on a parked
-   name fails and the doctrine routing applies).
-
-## Orchestrator steps after the executors
- Criterion 16 runs `bash lib/profile.sh set full` live (parks the 14 names,
-  re-applies full) and checks none of them resolves under `~/.claude/skills`.
- Post-merge (user): `make link` (helper tree) and `bash lib/profile.sh set
-  full` on any other machine.
-
-## Edge cases
- A profile line may carry a trailing label column (`personal`, `external`,
-  `# gstack`); entries match on the first token only.
- `design.profile` `# GATE-BLOCK:` lines name frontend-design, ui-ux-pro-max,
-  emil-design-eng, design-html, design-motion-principles, design-review,
-  design-consultation, the 21st CLI, 21st-ui-build: none of the removed or
-  parked names → no gate edit (grep before editing).
- link.sh / install-plugins.sh run on machines without the gstack
-  submodule: the call is guarded by `[ -d skills-external/gstack ]`.
- `skill_catalog_stats` never breaks doctor.sh's `set -euo pipefail`: it
-  always exits 0 and always prints two integers.
- The helper tree never contains a `SKILL.md` at any depth: skill dirs
-  expose only their non-SKILL.md children, non-skill dirs with a nested
-  SKILL.md (browser-skills/, node_modules/, openclaw/) are skipped
-  (asserted by the gstack-links test and criterion 3).
- `~/.claude/skills/gstack` may be a symlink to the submodule (planted by
-  gstack ./setup on a fresh machine): the lib removes it before linking and
-  never writes when dst resolves inside src.
- Kept gstack skills still name removed/parked skills in their upstream
-  prose: documented as a known residual (CHANGELOG), not patched (machine-
-  owned submodule files).
-
-## Tests
- lib/tests/profile-census.test.sh, gstack-removed.test.sh,
-  gstack-links.test.sh, doctor-skills.test.sh (new, hermetic; SUITES glob
-  picks `lib/tests/*.test.sh` up automatically).
- make test suite=lib/tests/doctrine-citers.test.sh (routing text changed);
-  existing profile-default / profile-set-managed / toggle-external suites
-  must stay green (profile.sh and toggle-external.sh changed).
- shellcheck link.sh doctor.sh install-plugins.sh update-all.sh lib/*.sh lib/tests/*.test.sh.
- Full `make test` by the orchestrator at the end (2 pre-existing T16a
-  gitleaks failures are known).
-
-## Disposition (RELATED MEMORY, read-before)
- honors BDR-030 / BDR-101 — gstack via profiles, full default: every drop
-  is a profile edit; the live tree follows through `set full`.
- honors BDR-025 — GATE-BLOCK single source untouched.
- honors BDR-093 — 21st pack stays installed; its generation/review trio
-  leaves the four design-bearing profiles and lives in max; BDR amendment
-  noted in registries.
- honors BDR-023 — close alias untouched.
- honors BDR-080 — investigate stays explicit-only and stays in full/dev/
-  backend (user rule).
- honors BDR-095 — static deny beats `ask`: careful/guard removal loses no
-  live protection (their hooks never fired).
- honors LRN-088 — measured before cutting: the gain is routing quality and
-  no broken 100 KB body invoked, not listing chars.
- honors LRN-022 / BLK-005 — profiles audited with the skill change (census).
- honors LRN-096 — vacuous guard class: helper tree makes the freeze hook
-  real; careful/guard are removed rather than left vacuous.
- honors BDR-070 — no rival SEO tooling: brightdata seo-audit stays off.
- does NOT touch BDR-104 (MengTo pack) nor the 2026-07-05 frontend-design +
-  impeccable "both" decision (the managed copy stays).

- Plugin superpowers 6.4.1 installed at
-  `~/.claude/plugins/cache/superpowers-marketplace/superpowers/6.4.1/`
-  (gitCommitSha 5bf4e78011075bcfc0dc295f0724994cd123ee71 = upstream tag
-  v6.4.1 on obra/superpowers; raw files served at
-  `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/obra/superpowers/<sha>/skills/<skill>/<file>`,
-  brainstorming/SKILL.md md5 identical local vs raw). Enabled in settings.json
-  (`superpowers@superpowers-marketplace: true`), PROTECTED in lib/profile.sh,
-  installed + enabled by install-plugins.sh STEP 5 (marketplace add,
-  install_plugin, enable_plugin), summary line "ALWAYS ON … superpowers".
-  Its hooks.json SessionStart (startup|clear|compact) injects
-  using-superpowers (~3.6 KB) every start.
- The 7 skills to vendor and their files (upstream layout `skills/<name>/`):
-  brainstorming: SKILL.md, spec-document-reviewer-prompt.md, visual-companion.md,
-    scripts/frame-template.html, scripts/helper.js, scripts/server.cjs,

-    examples/CLAUDE_MD_TESTING.md, graphviz-conventions.dot,
-    persuasion-principles.md, render-graphs.js, testing-skills-with-subagents.md
-  Scripts are invoked upstream as `bash scripts/<x>` (SDD lines 137, 252,
-  290…; brainstorming visual-companion.md) → no exec bit needed.
- Internal cross-references that will dangle (byte-for-byte text):
-  writing-plans → superpowers:subagent-driven-development, superpowers:executing-plans (dropped), superpowers:using-git-worktrees;
-  SDD → superpowers:finishing-a-development-branch ×4 (dropped), superpowers:using-git-worktrees, superpowers:requesting-code-review, executing-plans ×2;

-  `docs/superpowers/` paths (CLAUDE.md, gitflow, onboard) stay: brainstorming

-## Approach
-
-### E1 — wiring (lock, installers, link, gitignore, profile, detect, doctor)
-Files: plugins.lock.json, install-plugins.sh, update-all.sh, link.sh,
-.gitignore, lib/profile.sh, lib/detect-plugins.sh, hooks/session-start.sh,
-doctor.sh, lib/doctor-vendored.sh, lib/tests/doctor-vendored.test.sh,
-lib/vendor-skills.sh (header comment line only).
-1. plugins.lock.json: new entry `"superpowers"` after `"mengto-skills"`:
-   source `https://github.com/obra/superpowers`, commit
-   `5bf4e78011075bcfc0dc295f0724994cd123ee71`, path `skills`, `skills` = the
-   dict above (exact file lists), managed_by `curl`, `"always_on": true`,
-   note (maintainer facts only, history lives in CHANGELOG/BDR-106): "Seven
-   superpowers skills vendored byte-for-byte at the v6.4.1 tag commit
-   (obra/superpowers), always on (no profile lists them). Bump the commit
-   deliberately. Scripts inside run as `bash scripts/<x>`, no exec bit
-   needed. Upstream cross-references to the plugin prefix and to the 8
-   non-vendored skills stay in the text; CLAUDE.global.md Skill routing maps
-   them."
-2. install-plugins.sh STEP 5: delete the three superpowers lines (marketplace
-   add, install_plugin, enable_plugin) and replace with a 3-line comment
-   "Superpowers plugin removed 2026-09-28 (tier 2 of the skill-catalog prune):
-   its 7 wired skills are vendored in Step 8e (plugins.lock.json
-   'superpowers'); a still-cached plugin is uninstalled by hand once
-   (claude plugin uninstall superpowers@superpowers-marketplace), never here".
-   NO uninstall code in the installer (precedent: frontend-design, caveman).
-   Update the `enable_plugin` comment (:490) to name only security-guidance.
-   STEP 8e: heading/comment mention superpowers; `EXT_SKILL_NAMES` += the 7;
-   `vendor_pinned_skills superpowers` after mengto. Summary: replace line
-   ~1210 ("✅ superpowers — brainstorm/plan/implement/debug workflow", ALWAYS
-   ON block) by "✅ superpowers skills  — 7 vendored (brainstorming,
-   writing-plans, subagent-driven-development, test-driven-development,
-   requesting-code-review, using-git-worktrees, writing-skills), pinned
-   v6.4.1, curl → symlink, no plugin, no session injection"; add one "at:"
-   line right after the mengto "at:" line (~1234): "Superpowers skills at:
-   ~/.claude/skills/{brainstorming,…}/ (symlink → skills-external)".
-3. update-all.sh 7.3: `echo "── Updating superpowers skills (obra/superpowers)..."`
-   + `vendor_pinned_skills superpowers refresh`; comment names it.
-4. link.sh EXTERNAL_SKILLS += the 7 (keep the array multi-line ≤ 80 chars).
-5. .gitignore: 7 `skills/<name>` lines next to the other external symlinks
-   (:65-68 block) and 7 `skills-external/<name>/` lines next to the mengto
-   block (:203-207), each block with a one-line comment "superpowers, vendored
-   (plugins.lock.json 'superpowers')".
-6. lib/profile.sh: PROTECTED_PLUGINS keeps only security-guidance; every
-   comment naming superpowers as an always-on plugin (`grep -n superpowers
-   lib/profile.sh`, currently ~:22 and ~:65) reworded ("superpowers is
-   vendored skills now, not a plugin").
-7. lib/detect-plugins.sh `detect_superpowers`: exactly
-   `[ -f "$HOME/.claude/skills/brainstorming/SKILL.md" ]` (the linked
-   vendored skill: proves vendored AND linked; no plugin cache glob, no
-   `claude plugin list`, no new global, no fallback). Comment: "superpowers
-   = 7 vendored skills since 2026-09-28; the plugin is gone". A negative
-   control (empty HOME) must return 1.
-7b. lib/doctor-vendored.sh: lock entries may carry `"always_on": true`
-   (the `superpowers` entry does). Skills of such an entry are expected
-   LINKED whatever the active profile says (today every EXTERNAL_SKILLS name
-   absent from the profile is reported `parked`, link unchecked — the 7 are
-   in no profile by design). Mechanism: `_dv_lock_expectations` (python)
-   prints a THIRD column `name\tfile\t1` for skills of an `always_on` entry
-   (awk `$1==n {print $2}` in `_dv_check_files` keeps working unchanged);
-   `check_vendored_skills` reads the flag and passes it as a 5th parameter to
-   `_dv_check_link`, which treats `1` as "expected linked whatever the
-   profile says". If `check_vendored_skills` would exceed 5 locals, extract
-   the per-name dispatch into a helper (≤ 25 logic lines each). Update the
-   file header ("A name absent from the profile is reported parked" → "…
-   unless its lock entry is always_on") and the test header. Message
-   unchanged for the linked case, fail "<name>: symlink missing/wrong — run:
-   make link" when absent. Add a case
-   `ALWAYS_ON_LINK_CHECKED` to lib/tests/doctor-vendored.test.sh (fixture
-   entry with always_on true, name absent from the profile, link missing →
-   fail line, never `parked`). Document the field in lib/vendor-skills.sh's
-   lock-shape header comment (one line: ignored by the vendor helper, read
-   by doctor-vendored).
-8. hooks/session-start.sh: delete line 122 (`detect_superpowers … + 800`)
-   outright — the banner's ALWAYS_ON list comes from detect_rtk + settings
-   enabledPlugins (lines ~147-160), not from this call. doctor.sh :225-228:
-   pass "superpowers: 7 skills vendored + linked (plugins.lock.json, v6.4.1)"
-   / fail "superpowers skills not linked — run: make plugin && make link";
-   the pass line is worded on what `detect_superpowers` proves
-   ("superpowers skills linked (brainstorming found); per-skill check under
-   Vendored skills"); :423 delete the `+ 1500` line (comment: counted by the
-   skill catalog stats).
-9. settings.json: NOT an executor file any more — the orchestrator edits it
-   after criterion 2 is green (see Orchestrator steps), so a disabled plugin
-   never coincides with a failed fetch.
-
-### E2 — citers, routing map, docs
-Files: skills/{ship-feature,init-project,tour,deploy,audit-delta,gitflow,profile}/SKILL.md,
-lib/{analyze-before-plan,capitalize-commit,doc-commit}.md,
-agents/plugin-advisor.md, CLAUDE.global.md, README.md, USAGE.md, CHANGELOG.md.
-1. `superpowers:<x>` → `<x>` (bare) in ship-feature ×4, init-project ×4,
-   tour:318, deploy:515, audit-delta:321, lib/analyze-before-plan.md:106,
-   agents/plugin-advisor.md:182. Wording around them: "Invoke `brainstorming`
-   (vendored superpowers skill)" on first mention per file, bare afterwards.
-2. finishing-a-development-branch prose: lib/capitalize-commit.md:20 → "Orchestrators
-   that integrate via `gitflow finish` (the upstream
-   finishing-a-development-branch is not vendored)"; :68, lib/doc-commit.md:84,
-   lib/analyze-before-plan.md:108, skills/gitflow:16,110 → say "upstream
-   superpowers skill, not vendored here; `gitflow finish` is the only
-   integration path" where they present it as available.
-3. CLAUDE.global.md § Skill routing, after the "Before /clear or /compact"
-   line, ≤ 80 chars per line, about 4 lines, and NEVER the literal
-   "superpowers" followed by a colon (criterion 3 greps that string):
-   "- superpowers skills are vendored, called by bare name; an upstream
-     `superpowers` prefix means the bare skill. Not vendored:
-     executing-plans → subagent-driven-development;
-     finishing-a-development-branch → `gitflow finish` (human signal);
-     systematic-debugging → bugfix; verification-before-completion → the
-     verifier gates."
-   Every skill identifier stays WHOLE on its line (criterion 7 greps
-   `finishing-a-development-branch`, `executing-plans`, `systematic-debugging`
-   line by line); wrap at spaces only.
-4. README.md:121 row → "**Superpowers skills** | Vendored (7, always on) |
-   brainstorming, writing-plans, subagent-driven development, TDD, code
-   review request, git worktrees, writing-skills — pinned v6.4.1 in
-   plugins.lock.json, no plugin, no session injection | obra/superpowers".
-   README:208 unchanged.
-5. USAGE.md: every line presenting superpowers as a plugin to keep ON/OFF or
-   as ~800 t passive (184-185, 589, 650, 751, 864, 959-965, 971, 995, 1018)
-   → "skills superpowers (vendorisés, toujours actifs, 0 t passif)" or the
-   equivalent in the sentence's French; keep the narrative otherwise.
-6. agents/plugin-advisor.md: rows 177-182 (compat matrix) → "superpowers
-   skills (vendored)" wording, drop the plugin-dev overlap row's "plugin"
-   framing; recommended-set table 190-198: replace "superpowers" by
-   "(superpowers skills always on)" in the ON column and subtract ~800 t from
-   each cost; :80, :146, :242, :254, :298 reword; :324 remedy → "Superpowers
-   skills missing → `make plugin` (vendors them) then `make link`".
-7. skills/profile/SKILL.md:59: "Always-on plugins (`security-guidance`) and
-   the vendored superpowers skills are never toggled by a profile".
-8. CHANGELOG `[Unreleased]`: Changed (superpowers plugin → 7 vendored skills,
-   pinned, always on; `superpowers:` citers renamed), Removed (plugin, its 8
-   duplicate skills, the SessionStart injection), Known residual (upstream
-   cross-references inside the vendored text; CLAUDE.global.md map).
-
-## Orchestrator steps
- Criterion 2 vendors + links live (network fetch of 30 files); only when
-  every file is present and byte-identical (c2.py) does the next step run.
- Then the orchestrator edits settings.json by hand: remove the
-  `"superpowers@superpowers-marketplace": true` key from `enabledPlugins` and
-  the whole `extraKnownMarketplaces."superpowers-marketplace"` block, nothing
-  else; validate with `python3 -c 'import json;json.load(open("settings.json"))'`.
- Then, one shot by hand: `claude plugin uninstall superpowers@superpowers-marketplace`
-  and `claude plugin marketplace remove superpowers-marketplace`; re-check
-  `git diff settings.json` afterwards (the CLI must not have re-added
-  anything), then criterion 8.
- Rollback if criterion 8 fails: `claude plugin marketplace add
-  obra/superpowers-marketplace && claude plugin install superpowers@superpowers-marketplace`,
-  `git checkout -- settings.json`, stop and report.
- Verifier; security; commit; BDR-106 + journal.
-
-## Edge cases
- Mid-migration machine (plugin cached, skills not yet vendored): doctor
-  fails "not vendored or linked — run make plugin && make link"; the user
-  uninstalls the plugin by hand (CHANGELOG says so). No fallback that could
-  print "vendored" for a plugin-only machine.
- Mixed-version rollback (an older checkout re-installs the plugin while the
-  7 symlinks are still linked → duplicate descriptions): CHANGELOG note
-  "after a rollback, delete skills/<7> symlinks or re-run the new make plugin".
- The running session keeps the plugin's `superpowers` skills until restart;
-  the bare names appear after `make link` + a new session.
- Fresh clone: link.sh symlinks a non-existent skills-external dir only if
-  present (existing `[ -d ]` guard).
- skill-routing-census live run gains 7 descriptions: brainstorming's "You
-  MUST use this before any creative work" vs personal descriptions — the
-  suite's live FAIL threshold must not trip (check by running it).
-
-## Tests
- make test suite= vendor-skills, doctor-vendored (with the new
-  ALWAYS_ON_LINK_CHECKED case), doctrine-citers, skill-routing-census,
-  profile-default, profile-set-managed.
- shellcheck on every touched shell file.
-
-## Disposition (RELATED MEMORY)
- honors BDR-102 / BDR-104 — vendor over plugin, shared helper, pinned commit,
-  byte-for-byte text.
- honors BDR-105 — tier 2 of the prune decision.
- honors BDR-065 — docs/superpowers transient path unchanged.
- honors LRN-178 — no new top-level `source`; detect-plugins reads a path.
- honors BDR-077 — requesting-code-review's reviewer dispatch keeps the
-  model-routing note in ship-feature/init-project.

 ## [Unreleased]

-### Added
- **Effort round (BDR-108)**: every skill carries an entry level next to its model pin. `lib/effort-pins.txt` (map) + `lib/effort-pins.sh` (idempotent re-apply after the last vendoring step of `install-plugins.sh` and `update-all.sh`) replace the hardcoded brainstorming/writing-plans loop and extend the pins to the design stack (high, one level per stack since the last loaded wins), superpowers, agent-skills and the 21st pack; `skills-perso` low, `pdf-translate` medium, `site-motion` high; doctrine: the design stack loads paired with the first Read (a lone Skill call applies nothing). Model pins stay tier aliases: the latest version of a tier is also the cheapest or same-priced, so the quality/price trade-off is tier × effort, never version. `lib/effort-audit.py` prints thinking coverage per scope (sub-agent records carry no thinking count on ~90 % of requests: EVAL-037's "executors stay cheap" was a measurement gap, not a finding).
- **Effort tiering (BDR-107)**: reasoning effort routed per role and per phase. Session default `high`; `effort:` pins on the 20 repo-authored agents; entry level on 28 tracked user-invoked skills plus the two vendored superpowers skills (re-applied by `install-plugins.sh` after resync); five shifter skills `effort-low` … `effort-max` loaded at phase boundaries per `lib/effort-shift.md`, always sent with the step's first tool call (a lone Skill call is a no-op on 2.1.283), with `max` at the verify-secure caps and ship-feature 4b; `/effort-max` as the turn-scoped relaunch lever; statusline shows the live level; session banner warns when `CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL` silences the pins; census `lib/tests/effort-routing.test.sh`; transcript audit `lib/effort-audit.py`.
- **Design gate asks the user to sign in to 21st instead of skipping it**:
-  `lib/design-tool-gate.sh` adds a three-state 21st auth predicate
-  (`twentyfirst_auth_state`, honors `TWENTYFIRST_TOKEN`/`API_KEY_21ST` or a
-  local `21st whoami` read). Signed out now trips a new `SIGN-IN REQUIRED`
-  state (exit 12) instead of silently proceeding or reporting a plain
-  INCOMPLETE. The agent asks the user to run `! 21st login` in-session and
-  waits, re-running the gate on reply; an explicit "proceed without 21st"
-  opt-out is honored and never re-asked. A `whoami` answer that can't be
-  classified (unexpected line, nonzero rc, timeout) surfaces as unverified
-  with the raw diagnostic (`21st (whoami: rc=… …)`), never guessed as
-  signed-in or signed-out. `lib/design-gate.md` and the
-  `skills/feat`/`skills/bugfix` STEP 0.5 design-gate bullets document the
-  new branch. Hermetic suite `lib/tests/design-tool-gate.test.sh`, 7 named
-  cases.
- **`make doctor` checks the vendored externals** — new
-  `lib/doctor-vendored.sh` (`check_vendored_skills`), wired into doctor.sh
-  after the gstack section: every curl-pinned entry of plugins.lock.json
-  has its files under `skills-external/` (list, dict or single-path lock
-  shapes), every `EXTERNAL_SKILLS` name of link.sh is symlinked into
-  `~/.claude/skills/` when the active profile lists it, parked names are
-  reported not failed, hints `make plugin` / `make link`. Lock entries are
-  shape-validated (a malformed lock yields one warn, never a traceback) and
-  profile, skill and file names pass an allowlist before becoming paths.
-  Until now doctor only checked the gstack submodule. Hermetic suite
-  `lib/tests/doctor-vendored.test.sh`, 11 cases.
- **`skills/site-motion`** — personal skill for site-level motion
-  choreography (scroll engine choice and Lenis/ScrollTrigger sync, Astro
-  ClientRouter lifecycle, pin/scrub numbers, sticky stacks, video and image
-  scrubbing, WebGL hero lanes and budgets, upstream pitfalls, verification
-  checklist), distilled from the MengTo motion pack (invariants only,
-  LRN-141). Routed into the Build UI toolchain of CLAUDE.global.md and
-  lib/design-gate.md (not on the GATE-BLOCK set). Case 7 of the repo review.
- **Five MengTo scroll skills vendored** (`scroll-world-storytelling`,
-  `build-threejs-scroll-worlds` with its five references,
-  `scroll-scrubbed-visual-sequence`, `scroll-scrubbed-word-reveal`,
-  `scroll-progress-timeline`) at a pinned commit (`mengto-skills` entry in
-  plugins.lock.json, text files only, never demos or binaries). The
-  agent-skills curl loop became the shared `lib/vendor-skills.sh`
-  (`vendor_pinned_skills <lock-key> [refresh]`, list or dict lock shapes,
-  `VENDOR_BASE_URL` honoured only as `file://` for the hermetic suite
-  `lib/tests/vendor-skills.test.sh`, lock values validated: 40-hex commit,
-  github.com source, traversal-free paths, no trailing newline),
-  used by install-plugins.sh Step 8e and update-all.sh 7.3; refresh keeps
-  the file's convention and skips a skill that was never installed.
-  Registered in link.sh, .gitignore,
-  toggle-external, profile.sh and the design/web/web-full/full profiles
-  (plus `site-motion personal`). Seventeen other MengTo skills were read and
-  skipped: covered locally, buggy (reduced-motion `clearProps`, gate before
-  `registerPlugin`, no-JS opacity 0) or off-domain.
- **rules/web-building.md § Write-time reflexes** — stack-agnostic
-  micro-rules borrowed from ibelick/ui-skills (baseline-ui + playbook): dvh
-  and safe-area, paste never blocked, tabular-nums and text-wrap, one
-  z-index scale, compositor-only motion with reduced-motion and off-screen
-  pause, 44 px targets and focus-visible, status never by color alone,
-  errors next to the field, one accent per view. Case 3 of the 6-repo
-  review: nothing installed (CLI and MCP are a curl of raw SKILL.md, a
-  third router, and baseline-ui's stack mandates contradict Astro-first).
- **Agent Skills trio** (`observability-and-instrumentation`,
-  `deprecation-and-migration`, `ci-cd-and-automation`) — vendored from
-  addyosmani/agent-skills at a pinned commit (`agent-skills` entry in
-  plugins.lock.json), the emil-design-eng way: curl'd into
-  `skills-external/<name>/SKILL.md` by install-plugins.sh Step 8e, refreshed
-  by update-all.sh at the same commit, symlinked by link.sh, registered in
-  `lib/toggle-external.sh`, `lib/profile.sh` and the `full`/`backend`/`dev`
-  profiles. Case 2 of the 6-repo review: the plugin itself was rejected
-  (1.8k tokens per session for 20 % novelty, `/spec` `/review` `/ship`
-  collide with gstack, trunk-based git and the one-version API rule
-  contradict the doctrine, a second skill router).
- **`lib/floor-guard.sh`** — diff-scoped deterministic detector of a quietly
-  weakened quality bar (new lint/type suppressions, skipped or deleted
-  tests, dropped assertions, stubs, lowered coverage thresholds), with a
-  `floor-guard: allow <reason>` waiver, rc 0/2/3. Mandatory verifier
-  STEP 3 (`agents/verifier.md`), documented under GATE 1 of
-  `lib/verify-secure-loop.md`. Suite `lib/tests/floor-guard.test.sh`: 6
-  kinds plus a WAIVED and a CLEAN fixture, each flip-tested, and SKIP
-  boundary fixtures (bare `xit(`/`fit(`/`xdescribe(`/`fdescribe(` are
-  word-bounded, so `exit(`, `model.fit(`, `profit(` stay clean). Waivers
-  outside test files count as gaps unless the contract's CLARIFICATIONS
-  names them (security-gate MEDIUM, user chose strict). Adapted from
-  agent-skills `constraint-driven-development`.
- **`lib/tests/skill-routing-census.test.sh`** (+ `lib/skill-routing-census.py`)
-  — TF-IDF cosine census of skill-description collisions across the live
-  catalog (routing ambiguity, not naming): top 10 pairs, WARN ≥ 0.50,
-  FAIL ≥ 0.75, fixture flip-test. Baseline 2026-09-27: 120 skills, max 0.52
-  (`careful` ~ `guard`). Adapted from agent-skills evals Tier 2.
- **`rules/rest-api.md`** — path-scoped REST rule distilled from agent-skills
-  `api-and-interface-design`: contract-first order, one error envelope +
-  HTTP map, paginated lists, idempotency (key from intent, atomic claim,
-  payload guard, duplicate policy, retention), naming, Hyrum's law;
-  versioning points to `CLAUDE.md § Web APIs — always versioned` instead of
-  the upstream one-version rule.
- **`make test suite=<file>`** runs one suite hermetically; the
-  `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=/dev/null` export lives in the Makefile so nobody types
-  the denied env-prefix form by hand (the reason an executor wrote a wrapper
-  around it on 2026-09-24).
- **`lib/tests/doctrine-citers.test.sh`** — every `CLAUDE.md "Section"` or
-  `CLAUDE.md … § Label` citation in skills, agents, lib, rules and hooks must
-  resolve to a heading or bold label of CLAUDE.global.md; flip-tested. Would
-  have caught the five "§ Language" pointers the density pass left dangling.
-  First run fixed one more (`rest-api-node.md` cited the heading without its dash).
- **graphify threshold signal** — `lib/graphify-gate.sh` counts tracked code
-  files (vendored trees excluded) and, from 200 with no
-  `graphify-out/graph.json`, the session-start banner shows one line
-  (`graphify? N code files ≥ 200, no graph`) plus the `/graphify` hint. It
-  informs, the user decides: nothing is built or installed. Doctrine and the
-  plugin-advisor thresholds follow the same rule; measured on a 295-file PHP
-  project: AST build 2.3 s, zero LLM tokens, one query 2 to 3k tokens.
-  Test `lib/tests/graphify-gate.test.sh` (11 checks).
- **Branch deletion guard** — `gitflow_delete` (also `gitflow.sh delete
-  <branch>`) is the only path that deletes a branch: it refuses `main` and
-  `develop` (rc 6) and any branch not merged into develop or main (rc 5),
-  with an explicit ancestor check, and keeps the branch; the `origin/` copy
-  is removed right after, once its own tip passes the same check (a remote
-  tip the bases lack is kept, loudly; no origin, `GITFLOW_NO_PUSH=1` or
-  `gitflow.autopush false` skip it). Motivation, proven
-  by `gitflow-test.sh` T22a: since `start` sets an auto-pushed upstream,
-  `git branch -d` checks "merged into origin/<branch>", which the post-commit
-  hook keeps trivially true. A fourth generated hook, `reference-transaction`,
-  vetoes any deletion or rename of `main`/`develop` at the ref layer in every
-  repo (`git config gitflow.protect false` opts a foreign clone out). Static
-  deny on hand deletion (`git branch -d`/`--delete`, renames of the bases),
-  a `hard_deny` entry for the nested forms; `gitflow.sh hooks` lists the hook
-  set, read by `doctor.sh` and the tests.
- **`make doctor` reports the Playwright browser cache** — a read-only
-  `Playwright browsers` section listing cache size, which registered
-  Playwright install requires each cached browser revision, and counts of
-  unreferenced directories and broken links. Report only: nothing is
-  pruned, since Playwright's own `install` already unions the required set
-  across every registered install.
- `lib/gstack-playwright.sh` — the gstack Playwright helpers as a shared
-  lib (OS-support bump, submodule-update wrapper, cache report), sourced by
-  `install-plugins.sh`, `update-all.sh` and `doctor.sh`, covered by
-  `lib/tests/gstack-playwright.test.sh`.
- **`doctor.sh` inspects the `autoMode` block**: warns when a classifier
-  list drops the built-in entries (no `"$defaults"`) and when the
-  user-scope `environment` names a git repo other than the config repo.
-  Neither defect is visible from the deny count, until now the only
-  permission signal `doctor.sh` had.
- **`templates/settings/SETTINGS.md` documents `autoMode`**: the four
-  classifier lists, `$defaults` splice semantics, `classifyAllShell`, the
-  user-scope vs project-scope rule, and why `ask` is the wrong tier for a
-  destructive command under auto mode.
- **21st.dev moved from an MCP server to a CLI.** `install-plugins.sh` Step 8.7
-  installs `@21st-dev/cli` globally (pinned in `plugins.lock.json`), offers
-  `21st login` in an interactive terminal only, and stages the 7-skill pack
-  into `skills-external/21st-*`. `update-all.sh` refreshes both. The design
-  skills follow the profile (on under the default `full`); the two publishing
-  skills stay parked.
- `lib/toggle-external.sh` manages `21st` as a skill pack (glob-derived from
-  `skills-external/21st-*`, parked under plain names so `profile.sh`'s
-  external park/restore stays interoperable). `magic` is gone from the
-  managed tools.
- The five design skills (`21st-ui-build`, `-ui-explore`, `-ui-review`,
-  `-cli-use`, `-ai`) are in the `design`, `web`, `web-full` and `full`
-  profiles and in `profile.sh`'s `MANAGED_EXTERNALS`; `21st-registry` and
-  `21st-design-sync` are installed but left parked.
- `autoMode.soft_deny` gains one entry for the outward-facing 21st verbs
-  (`publish*`, `submit`, `edit`, `delete`, `remove-from-catalog`,
-  `profile set|upload`) — publishing puts a component on a public listing.
-  That tier rather than `ask`, per LRN-153.
-
- `lib/design-gate.md` §5: a suggest-only check, same shape as the §4
-  animation-library one. When impeccable is active and the frontend project
-  has no `PRODUCT.md` at its root, the gate proposes `/impeccable init` once
-  and never runs it itself (it interviews the user). Skipped for single
-  component reviews and non-UI work.
-
- **Every commit is pushed as it lands.** `gitflow start` pushes the new
-  branch with its upstream, `gitflow finish` pushes each merge target, and
-  `gitflow init` / `install-hook` now write `post-commit` and `post-merge`
-  hooks next to `pre-commit` that push the current branch after every
-  commit and merge (`--follow-tags`, 30 s timeout, `GITFLOW_NO_PUSH=1` to
-  opt out in throwaway repos). A failed push warns loudly and never blocks
-  the commit. Nothing to run per project: `make link` generates `githooks/`
-  from the lib and sets git's global `core.hooksPath` to
-  `~/.claude/githooks`, so every repo on the machine runs the three hooks,
-  and `hooks/session-start.sh` refreshes a repo's own `.githooks/` when it
-  lags the lib (`gitflow reconcile-hooks`). Per-repo opt-outs for a foreign
-  clone: `git config gitflow.protect false`, `git config gitflow.autopush
-  false`. `make doctor` checks both. The pre-commit exemption now covers
-  `.githooks/**` next to `.claude/**`. `make test` and the suites that
-  commit on `main` run with `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=/dev/null`, so the global
-  hooks never fire in throwaway repos. Covered by `gitflow-test.sh` T18
-  (bare origin: start, commit, opt-outs, unreachable origin, finish), T19
-  (installed and generated hooks equal the emitted ones, LRN-114 drift
-  gate), T20 (reconcile) and T21 (whitelist and protect opt-out).
- `hooks/unpushed-guard.sh` on `SessionStart` and `Stop`: a warning when the
-  branch is ahead of its upstream, has no upstream, or has no `origin`; at
-  session start also the count of uncommitted changes. Non-blocking.
- `make doctor` gains two sections: "Git hooks" (global `core.hooksPath`
-  set, generated `githooks/` equal to the emitters) and "Scratchpad": a
-  warning when `TMPDIR` sits on a tmpfs mounted with `usrquota`. systemd
-  mounts `/tmp` that way by default and caps each user at 80 % of its
-  size, so Claude's tool outputs share one quota across every session and
-  sub-agent, and one fat probe directory kills every shell at once (this
-  happened twice on 2026-09-22, BLK-021). Fix: launch claude with
-  `TMPDIR=$HOME/.cache/claude-tmp`.
- `lib/tests/guard-bash.test.sh`: the executable spec of a PreToolUse Bash
-  guard (transfer tools, sync deletes, recursive `rm` outside the project,
-  bulk permissions, privilege escalation, disk tools, docker privileges and
-  system mounts, git history destruction, writes into system zones,
-  guardrail tampering, pipe-to-shell, nested forms, scripts the command
-  runs). The hook itself is not shipped (BLK-022); the spec skips cleanly
-  until it lands.
- **`lib/tests/profile-default.test.sh`** covers the default-profile
-  resolution (absent / empty / `none` cache), `reset` = `set full`, the
-  label-driven `current` lines and the statusline fallback, on a fixture
-  seeded like a real tree (gstack off, nothing linked).
-
-### Changed
- **`full` = everything the other profiles carry** (user rule: full does
-  what every specialized profile does), minus the 9 removed gstack
-  skills, the 21st generation/review trio and one named exception
-  (`pr-review-toolkit`, deliberately out of full since audit 2026-07-02
-  #12). New `max` profile (`# SUPERSET-OF: full` marker) is `full` plus
-  the parked tools (`make-pdf`, `diagram`, `21st-ai`, `21st-ui-explore`,
-  `21st-ui-review`) plus `pr-review-toolkit` — switch here when one of
-  them is needed. The 21st generation/review trio leaves `full`, `web`,
-  `web-full` and `design`; `CLAUDE.global.md`'s Design work line drops
-  `21st-ui-review` and notes the trio is `max`-profile only.
-  `security-guidance`'s Stop-hook LLM review is off
-  (`ENABLE_STOP_REVIEW=0` in `settings.json`'s `env`, the plugin's own
-  switch); its regex layer and the commit/push agentic review stay on.
-  `doctor.sh`'s skill-catalog token constants are recomputed from a real
-  count instead of a stale estimate.
- **CLAUDE.global.md § Code style** — the ordered YAGNI decision ladder
-  (not needed → reuse → stdlib → platform → installed dependency → one line
-  → the minimum that works, after understanding the problem) and a
-  `shortcut:` comment convention for assumed shortcuts, harvested into
-  TODO.md. Six lines, 287 → 293 of the 320 budget. Case 1 of the 6-repo
-  review: ponytail and chisle rejected as plugins (per-turn and
-  per-subagent injection, prose rules colliding with writing-style.md,
-  the caveman purge precedent, rtk already covering the input axis).
- **Default profile = `full`.** With no selection (`.active-profile`
-  absent, empty, or the legacy `none`), `full` is in force: statusline,
-  `profile.sh current`, `gstack off` and `reset` all resolve it the same
-  way. `profile.sh reset` (and `make profile-reset`) now applies the
-  default profile, exclusively (= `set full`: enables full's list, parks
-  non-listed gstack and managed externals). It no longer means "re-enable
-  all gstack, plugins untouched". `profile.sh current` is label-driven: it
-  names the cached profile, or the default with "default, not applied yet"
-  until a `set`/`apply`/`reset` writes the cache, and scores that profile
-  only. The `none`/`custom` best guess is gone. The statusline shows `full`
-  instead of `?` when no profile is selected.
- **`make plugin` Step 11 applies the default profile** when none is
-  selected (`profile.sh reset`) and re-applies an existing selection
-  (`profile.sh set <sel>`), since Steps 2 and 10 rewrite skill state on
-  every run. Step 8.7 no longer parks the 21st pack unconditionally; the
-  pack's state follows the profile.
- **`full` profile gains four gstack skills** superpowers does not cover:
-  `scrape` and `skillify` (browser + dogfooding), `diagram` and `make-pdf`
-  (docs). Nothing removed; iOS skills, the `connect-chrome` duplicate and
-  gstack-internal tooling stay out.
- **Routing around a guardrail is the same action** — new `hard_deny` entry: a
-  refused command is never rerun through a wrapper script, alias, heredoc,
-  Makefile target, env file, other shell or other agent; a refusal ends the
-  attempt and is reported with its rule; a brief that orders the refused form is
-  wrong. The same clause sits in every executor and reviewer agent, and the
-  doctrine's sub-agent rule names it. "After code changes" gains step 4: a
-  changed rule, heading, label or threshold → grep every citer, same commit.
- **Doctrine/skill coherence pass (C2)** — 30 rule pairs in tension found by
-  three read-only audits and resolved in the doctrine's favour: one ask
-  policy (visible / public-name / open-scope choices are asked); mandated
-  executors exempt from the "don't delegate the trivial" rule; a
-  skill-persisted plan satisfies the planning rule; the journal line is
-  exempt from the approval gate; `chore/*` = maintenance without new
-  behaviour; a small fix on develop is a `bugfix`, `hotfix/*` is for prod
-  incidents; the BDR-068 memory auto-finish is written as the one exception;
-  `deploy` routes to `/deploy`. Skills follow: /hotfix types by base and skips
-  the design gate on the trivial tier; /capitalize and /close create missing
-  registries instead of stopping; /commit-change asks the branch type; /doc,
-  /seo, /web-validate and /refactor branch through the aiguillage; /tour
-  reports contract-breaking fixes as `needs decision` and runs doc-syncer in
-  its two modes; client-handover applies audit bundles from its main loop
-  behind one gate; init-project and onboard propose graphify only through
-  the 200-file signal and bootstrap the memory registries; release-candidate
-  gates the tag push only; push wording aligned with the BDR-095 hooks in
-  tour, deploy, capitalize; stale pointers fixed (`§ Language`, `.gsd/
-  ROADMAP.md`, handover script path, design-gate extensions and lists).
- **CLAUDE.global.md density pass** 352 → 270 lines (−15% words): prose
-  tightened, Security subsections folded into one labelled list, routing
-  lines that only repeated a skill description dropped. Every constraint and
-  every `##` heading kept; loaded in every session, so ~600 fewer tokens per
-  session in every repo (BDR-098).
- **Design gate: `magic` → the `21st` CLI in the required-manual slot.**
-  `design.profile`'s `GATE-BLOCK` now lists `21st` (CLI channel) and
-  `21st-ui-build` (the pack's canary on the skill channel); a missing CLI
-  trips the gate with `npm i -g @21st-dev/cli` + `21st login` instead of the
-  old `MAGIC_API_KEY` hint. `design-tool-gate.sh` also repairs `PATH` for the
-  npm global bin, whose absence in a hook's sanitized `PATH` would otherwise
-  read as "21st missing" (the existing repair only fired when `claude` itself
-  was unresolvable).
- `profile.sh`'s `MANAGED_MCPS` is empty: no MCP server is auto-toggled any
-  more. The `mcp` type stays supported for an advisory profile entry.
- **`/deploy` hand-back: one physical line per command, then a post-deploy
-  tests block.** Every command in the checklist is emitted on exactly one
-  line, however long; a legacy `\` continuation in the runbook is joined at
-  instantiation, and bootstrap and learn patches write runbook lines the same
-  way (`templates/deploy/PROCEDURE.md` header updated). After the checklist
-  the hand-back now carries a "Post-deploy tests" block derived from the
-  delta diff: by-hand checks (action → observable result, each tied to a
-  delta file) plus Suggestions (checks the runbook does not do yet, gaps
-  spotted between delta files). Cold-resume re-display and re-hand-back
-  regenerate both. RED/GREEN tested on a scratch runbook (4/4 baseline runs
-  reproduced the continuation verbatim and printed no tests).
- **Docker and node go through the classifier with a framing, instead of
-  an inert `ask` tier.** `Bash(docker run|exec *)`, `Bash(docker[-| ]compose
-  up*)` and `Bash(node -e *)` leave `permissions.ask` (no prompt under auto
-  mode, re-verified on 2.1.273). A new `autoMode.allow` list, `$defaults`
-  first, names the two routine cases the built-in `Remote Shell Writes` /
-  `Production Reads` rules were catching: `docker exec`/`run`/`compose`
-  against a local dev container whose name does not carry `prod`, running a
-  SQL file or script from the repo inside it; and project-local node
-  (`node <file>`, `npm run`, `npx`/`pnpm exec` of a lockfile-declared
-  package, effects inside the cwd). Two `soft_deny` entries frame what that
-  opens: docker data destruction (`rm -f`, `volume rm`/`prune`, `system
-  prune`, `compose down -v`, `--privileged`, bind mounts outside the cwd)
-  and undeclared node packages (`npx`/`dlx` of a package absent from the
-  lockfile, `npm install <name>`). `SETTINGS.md` gains the `autoMode.allow`
-  tier and the reason a static `Bash(node *)` rule cannot do this job.
- **Ask, don't guess: the orchestrators ask about open choices instead of
-  settling them.** `CLAUDE.global.md` replaces "one question upfront, never
-  mid-task" with: a choice visible in the result, a name that becomes
-  public, or a scope the request does not settle → ask, even mid-task;
-  internal technical choices stay Claude's. `lib/contract-interview.md`
-  STEP 2 becomes CLARIFY: pass A (the three gap checks, at contract time)
-  and pass B (the open-choice sweep in three classes, run once at each
-  flow's PLAN step, no question cap, over-5 guard, "you decide" recorded as
-  delegated). New MID-RUN CLARIFICATION section: an executor's
-  `NEED-DECISION` carries a `CLASS:` tag; visible / public-name / scope go
-  to the user verbatim, internal is decided in the loop; answers land in
-  the contract `[gated]`. New HOW TO ASK section (LRN-102). `/feat`,
-  `/bugfix`, `/hotfix`, `/ship-feature`, `/init-project` wire pass B at
-  their plan step; `/feat` and `/bugfix` stop deciding `NEED-DECISION`
-  themselves; `/hotfix` drops "zero questions ever" and allows one
-  re-dispatch for a class-tagged BLOCKED; the interviewer never ships a
-  visible / public-name / scope item as `(assumed)`; feater, bugfixer and
-  hotfixer report the class. Locks updated in the `contract-verifier`,
-  `loops-light` and `gates` tests.
- **The classifier, not `permissions.ask`, now guards destructive shell
-  work** (BDR-090). Ten rules left the static tiers: `rsync`, `kill -9`,
-  `killall`, `pkill` out of `deny`, and `python3 -c`, `python -c`,
-  `xargs`, `sed`, `cp`, `mv` out of `ask`. Under `defaultMode: auto` an
-  `ask` rule raises no prompt ([[LRN-146]]), so that tier was gating
-  nothing anyway. Cover is now `autoMode.soft_deny`, which the classifier
-  enforces and an explicit instruction clears: writes outside the working
-  directory, `rsync --delete`, SIGKILL and kill-by-name, in-place edits
-  spanning more than one file, directory moves, and inline interpreters
-  or `xargs` that delete or write outside the cwd. Intent clears a soft
-  block for the current turn only.
- **`autoMode.hard_deny` added** for the three classes no command pattern
-  can express: secret exfiltration (a read and a send, separate steps,
-  possibly turns apart), production deployment (deploy scripts, lftp/FTP
-  pushes, any `prod` target), and disarming the guardrails (weakening a
-  deny list, `--no-verify`, removing the pre-commit hook,
-  `bypassPermissions`). Adding a restriction stays allowed; removing one
-  does not. No instruction clears these.
-
- **impeccable installs at `--scope=global`, subagents included, and the
-  pin fails safe.** `install-plugins.sh` Step 8d no longer stages a
-  `--scope=project` install in a tmpdir and moves the skill directory alone.
-  The installer writes through the `~/.claude/skills` and `~/.claude/agents`
-  symlinks straight into the repo: `skills/impeccable` plus the four
-  `agents/impeccable-*.md`, both gitignored and machine-owned, which is what
-  the manual `--scope=global` command already did. The step refuses to run
-  before `make link` has created those symlinks (an install before them
-  materializes real directories that `link.sh` then refuses to replace),
-  keeps a profile-parked copy parked, reports the skill version and agent
-  count, and prints the per-project `/impeccable init` hint. A pinned
-  install that fails falls back to `impeccable@latest` with a warning to
-  bump `plugins.lock.json`. `update-all.sh` follows the same shape.
-  `plugins.lock.json` pin 3.2.0 → 4.1.0 (the CLI only: the skill dist and
-  the engine binary have their own release tracks). `link.sh` drops
-  impeccable from `EXTERNAL_SKILLS`; `skills-external/impeccable/` is gone.
- **Superpowers plugin replaced by 7 vendored skills** (tier 2 of the
-  skill-catalog prune, BDR-105/106). `brainstorming`, `writing-plans`,
-  `subagent-driven-development`, `test-driven-development`,
-  `requesting-code-review`, `using-git-worktrees` and `writing-skills` are
-  curled byte-for-byte from `obra/superpowers` at the v6.4.1 commit
-  (`5bf4e78011075bcfc0dc295f0724994cd123ee71`) via `lib/vendor-skills.sh`
-  (new `superpowers` entry in `plugins.lock.json`, `always_on: true`),
-  linked by `link.sh` like the other externals: always on, no profile lists
-  them, same as `darwin-skill`. Every `superpowers:<skill>` citer across
-  `skills/`, `agents/` and `lib/` is renamed to the bare skill name.
-  `CLAUDE.global.md` Skill routing gains a map for the 4 dropped skills this
-  config used to reference: `executing-plans` to
-  `subagent-driven-development`, `finishing-a-development-branch` to
-  `gitflow finish`, `systematic-debugging` to `/bugfix`,
-  `verification-before-completion` to the verifier gates.
-
-### Security
- **Ten secret-reader deny rules added**: `sed`, `awk`, `cut`, `tr`,
-  `sort`, `uniq`, `diff`, `od`, `xxd`, `strings` against `.env*`. Six of
-  those tools sat in `permissions.allow`, so reading a `.env` through
-  them triggered nothing. Same shape and same known gap as the existing
-  `Bash(grep * .env*)` family: a `cat .env | sed` pipe still slips past,
-  which is what the `hard_deny` exfiltration rule is there to catch.
-
- **Data-loss guardrails after the 2026-09-21 wipe** (BDR-095). Static
-  `permissions.deny` now refuses transfer and mirror tools (`lftp`, `sftp`,
-  `ftp`, `curl -T`), `rsync --delete`, `xargs rm`, pipe-to-shell,
-  `chmod`/`chown -R`, `sudo`/`doas`/`pkexec`, disk tools, `chattr`, docker
-  volume drops, `system prune`, `compose down -v`, `--privileged`, the
-  docker socket and `-v /:`, and git history destruction (`push --delete`,
-  `--mirror`, `:ref`, `--force-with-lease`, `branch -D`, `filter-branch`,
-  `reflog expire`, `stash clear`/`drop`, `clean -f`, `--no-verify`,
-  `core.hooksPath`, the `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=` / `GIT_CONFIG=` env prefixes
-  and the per-repo `gitflow.*` opt-outs, which belong to the human). The
-  pipe-to-shell and stash entries left `ask`, which is
-  unreliable under auto mode. New `autoMode.hard_deny`: a destructive tool
-  aimed at a path built from a variable, `~`, `..`, a wildcard, or outside
-  the project and the temp dir, including as a trace or a rehearsal that a
-  brief allows; a sub-agent brief carries no user authority. `soft_deny`
-  reworded for the promoted docker items and gains "discarding uncommitted
-  work". `environment` records the incident, the push discipline, and that
-  Claude never runs a deploy. `CLAUDE.global.md` gains "Destructive tools &
-  data loss"; the four report-only agents state that a destructive tool is
-  traced by reading, never by running, whatever the brief says.
-
-### Removed
- **Skill-catalog prune**: `brightdata-plugin@synced` disabled
-  (account-synced, keyless-useless, its `bright-data-mcp` skill would
-  hijack WebFetch/WebSearch), `frontend-design@claude-plugins-official`
-  uninstalled (byte-identical duplicate of the managed `skills-external`
-  copy). The 9 broken or doctrine-breaking gstack skills — `ship`,
-  `land-and-deploy`, `setup-deploy`, `autoplan`, `context-save`, `learn`,
-  `careful`, `guard`, `design-shotgun` — are out of every profile that
-  listed them (`dev`, `backend`, `web`, `web-full`, `design`, `full`),
-  each with its reason in the new `lib/gstack-removed.sh` (exit-127 hooks,
-  an absent `OPENAI_API_KEY`, `ship`/`land-and-deploy` skipping develop,
-  `context-save` with no restore). The new `GSTACK_REMOVED` denylist is
-  honored by `profile.sh gstack on` and `toggle-external.sh enable
-  gstack`: both now skip a removed name instead of silently restoring it.
- `deploy` `push_deploy_tags` knob (the STATE.json commit's hook pushes the tag
-  with `--follow-tags`); `/onboard add gsd` and `/onboard continue` mentions
-  (never had a handler).
- **`magic` MCP (`@21st-dev/magic`) and `MAGIC_API_KEY`**, with the two risks
-  attached to them: the unauthenticated `127.0.0.1` callback server
-  `21st_magic_component_builder` opened (LRN-110) and the plaintext key copy
-  that `claude mcp add --env` wrote into `~/.claude.json` (BDR-026/057). Gone
-  with it: the 4 `mcp__magic__*` `permissions.ask` entries (BDR-059), the
-  `MAGIC_API_KEY` block in `.env.example`, `link.sh`'s missing-key warning,
-  and the dead `MAGIC_API_KEY=abc123` gitleaks allowlist regex.
- **Superpowers plugin uninstalled**: its 8 other skills
-  (`executing-plans`, `finishing-a-development-branch`,
-  `systematic-debugging`, `verification-before-completion`,
-  `dispatching-parallel-agents`, `receiving-code-review`,
-  `using-superpowers`, `diagnosing-superpowers`) and its SessionStart
-  injection (`using-superpowers`, ~3.6 KB every session start) are gone
-  with it. `lib/profile.sh` no longer protects it; `lib/detect-plugins.sh`
-  `detect_superpowers` now checks the linked vendored skill instead of the
-  plugin cache or `claude plugin list`.
-
-### Fixed
- `update-all.sh` re-fetched the vendored skills at every run but never re-applied the effort pins: brainstorming/writing-plans lost their xhigh until the next `make plugin` (BDR-107 gap, closed by `lib/effort-pins.sh`).
- **gitflow pre-commit blocked every commit with gitleaks 8.16** (Ubuntu's apt
-  package): the hook ran `gitleaks git --staged`, a subcommand that exists from
-  8.19 only, so the "unknown command" exit 1 read as a leak. The generator now
-  probes `gitleaks git --help` and falls back to `protect --staged`; the
-  installed hooks are regenerated. T16c builds a `/usr/bin` symlink farm minus
-  gitleaks instead of shortening PATH, which no longer hid a distro-packaged
-  binary.
- **gstack's shared helper tree was mostly unreachable.** gstack skills
-  hardcode `~/.claude/skills/gstack/<path>` for shared assets, but
-  `link.sh` and `install-plugins.sh` only ever linked `bin` and
-  `browse/dist`. A shared `lib/gstack-links.sh` (used by `link.sh`,
-  `install-plugins.sh` and `update-all.sh`) now links every non-skill
-  child of the gstack submodule, so `make-pdf`, `diagram`, the `freeze`
-  hook, the `*/sections/*.md` files, `scripts/jargon-list.json` and
-  `ETHOS.md` resolve; `/unfreeze` now actually clears
-  `~/.gstack/freeze-dir.txt`. `doctor.sh` counted skills with `find
-  -maxdepth 2` (no `-L`, missed symlinked skills) and truncated
-  block-scalar (`|`/`>`) descriptions to 0 chars; it now reuses
-  `lib/skill-routing-census.py`'s description parser through
-  `lib/doctor-skills.sh`. Dropped the stale "security-guidance … 0
-  tokens" claim from `install-plugins.sh` and `agents/plugin-advisor.md`:
-  the Stop review costs out-of-band quota, not context.
-  `CLAUDE.global.md`'s Ship/PR routing pointed at gstack's `ship`, which
-  bases off `origin/HEAD` (= main) and skips develop; it now routes
-  straight to `ship-feature`.
- **`gitflow init` on an existing repo under the machine-wide hooks** — the
-  socle commit (`.gitignore` + `.githooks/`) landed directly on `main`
-  "while the hook is inactive"; since the global `core.hooksPath` the
-  pre-commit refused it and init died. The socle now lands on
-  `chore/gitflow-adopt` off main, merged `--no-ff` (merge commits run no
-  pre-commit), branch deleted, develop created after. T2c simulates the live
-  hook; the hermetic suite could not see the regression.
- **`make update` no longer drops the Playwright OS-support bump** — a
-  gstack submodule update used to leave the bump unapplied until the next
-  `make plugin`, the open caveat of BDR-029. `update-all.sh` now goes
-  through `gstack_submodule_update_with_bump`, which re-applies it after a
-  successful update and returns non-zero on failure so the existing warn
-  arm still fires. Two latent bugs travelled with the extracted code: the
-  ostag capture exited 1 on every non-Ubuntu host and aborted its caller
-  under inherited `errexit`, and the `bun` calls had no timeout.
- **`autoMode.environment` no longer describes one project from the
-  user-scope file**: the block named a specific repo, its FTP deploy
-  target and its customer data, while `link.sh` symlinks this file to
-  `~/.claude/settings.json` where it reaches every project. The global
-  block now states machine-level facts only (self-hosted Gitea, gitflow
-  protection, `~/.claude/.env` as the single secret source, no CI), and
-  the project-specific facts moved to that project's gitignored
-  `.claude/settings.local.json`. Both lists now open with `"$defaults"`,
-  which the original omitted, so the built-in entries are inherited
-  rather than replaced.
- `README.md` no longer claims the `ask` tier makes every `mcp__magic__*`
-  call "require a live confirmation and can never auto-execute". That
-  holds under `defaultMode: default`, not under this config's `auto`. The
-  paragraph now separates what is verified from what is not, and names
-  `deny` as the only tier the classifier cannot lift.
- **`make plugin` never installed impeccable.** Three defects. The 3.2.0
-  pin had rotted upstream: the CLI fetches its skill dist at install time and
-  that release's artifact is gone (`Download failed: invalid zip data`),
-  which the step reported as "run it yourself" on every run. The
-  project-scope staging dropped the four subagents the same install writes.
-  And `/impeccable init` was never announced. A fourth, found while probing
-  the fix: once a copy is already installed, a rotted pin exits 0
-  (`Could not check for skill updates … Existing skills were left
-  unchanged`), byte-identical on disk to a genuine "Skills are up to date"
-  rerun, so `imp_install` now reads the installer output instead of trusting
-  the exit code or a version compare. Verified with the real installer in a
-  sandbox HOME: fresh install, rotted pin over a copy (fallback fires), same
-  pin rerun (no false warning), parked copy plus rotted pin (fallback, then
-  returned to `skills-disabled/`).
-
-### Known residual
- The kept gstack skills still carry upstream prose routing to `/ship`,
-  `/land-and-deploy`, `/context-save`, `/autoplan` and `/design-shotgun`
-  (their own text, machine-owned submodule files, not ours to patch);
-  `21st-ui-build` and `21st-cli-use` still point at the now-`max`-only
-  21st trio. A Skill call on a parked name fails, and the doctrine
-  routing in `CLAUDE.global.md` applies instead.
- The 7 vendored superpowers skills are byte-for-byte upstream text, never
-  edited: their internal `superpowers:<x>` mentions and references to the
-  8 non-vendored skills stay in the prose (their own text, not ours to
-  patch). `CLAUDE.global.md` Skill routing carries the map for the 4 of
-  those this config used to reference. After a rollback that re-installs
-  the plugin while the 7 symlinks are still linked, delete the
-  `skills/<7>` symlinks or re-run `make plugin` to avoid duplicate skill
-  descriptions.

-  changes unless a broader refactor is requested. State trade-offs.

-  tools & data loss) or to route around a guardrail: a refused command is
-  reported with its rule, never rerun through a wrapper, alias, env file or
-  other shell. Hermetic tests run through `make test [suite=…]` only.
- Ask rather than guess. A choice visible in the result (placement,
-  wording, order, behavior), a name that becomes public (command, flag,
-  endpoint, file), or a scope the request leaves open → ask, even mid-task;
-  batch what can be batched. Internal choices with no observable effect
-  stay yours. Exception: skill-mandated gates and checkpoints (validation,

- Bug received → fix directly: logs, root cause, resolve autonomously; a

-Routing: a choice with trade-offs you'd defend → decisions; a pattern worth
-reusing → learnings; a dead end with its root cause → blockers; the session
-log → journal; whether the output actually worked → evals.
+**Language — registries always English.** Rationale: consistent vocab,
+lower token cost, cross-project reuse. User-facing CAPITALIZE prompts may
+mirror user's language; final written entry English.

-**Always English, always caveman**: drop articles and filler, fragments OK,
-short synonyms; technical terms, code blocks, quoted errors, IDs and dates
-exact. Pattern `[thing] [action] [reason]. [next step].` Registries load
-every session; caveman cuts ~40% of the tokens with no substance lost.
-Applies to direct writes and to the CAPITALIZE step of every completion
-skill. Prompts to the user may mirror their language; the entry is English.
-Legacy entries: compress on demand via `/prune-memory`.
+**Format — registries always caveman.** Drop articles + filler, fragments

-entry pre-filled, user approves before the write; the one-line journal
-entry is exempt, it logs and decides nothing. Completion skills
-(`/ship-feature` `/feat` `/bugfix` `/hotfix` `/commit-change`) do it via

-Every endpoint versioned from day one: `/api/v1/...`, no bare `/api/`; the
-router mirrors it (`api/v1/routes/`). Breaking change → `v2`, the old

+All web API endpoints must be versioned from day one: `/api/v1/...`.
+- New project → start at `/api/v1/`, no bare `/api/` routes.
+- Breaking changes → new version (`v2`). Old version stays functional —
+  clients migrate at own pace.
+- Non-breaking additions (new fields, new endpoints) → current version.
+- Each version is self-contained contract. Don't modify existing version
+  behavior to match newer one.
+- Router structure reflects versioning explicitly (e.g. `api/v1/routes/`).

 ## Version control — gitflow (universal)
-Every git action follows gitflow, inside a skill or for an ad-hoc commit.
-`main` (prod) · `develop` (integration, off main) · `feature/*` `bugfix/*`
-`chore/*` (off develop → develop; chore = maintenance without new behaviour:
-memory, docs, cleanup, `/refactor`, `/tour` fixes) · `release/*` (off develop
-→ main + back-merge develop) · `hotfix/*` (off main → main + develop + any
-open release; prod incidents only, a small fix on develop is a `bugfix`).
-`master` → `main` everywhere.

-Never commit code on `main` or `develop`: branch first as `<type>/<name>`
-(a `.claude/**` memory/config commit that follows merged work is hook-exempt
-and lands in place; a standalone memory task branches `chore/*`).
-Branch, merge and delete only via the lib: `bash ~/.claude/lib/gitflow.sh
-start <type> <name>` · `finish` · `delete <br>`. `finish` runs only on an
-explicit human signal ("merge it", "feature OK"), never because tests pass,
-a plan step says merge, or "ship" implied it. Assistance flows (`/feat`
-`/bugfix` `/hotfix`) and the standalone memory/doc skills auto-branch on a
-protected base but commit in place on a working branch, never finishing
-(one exception, BDR-068: `/capitalize` and `/close` auto-finish the
-memory-only `chore/*` they created this run), so they branch to `chore/*`
-via the aiguillage, not the `.claude/**` exemption.
-Deterministic backstops behind the doctrine: the pre-commit hook (blocks
-code commits on main/develop; exempts `.claude/**`, `.githooks/**`, merges,
-the root commit), Gitea branch protection on both, and never `--no-verify`.
-Every branch is pushed at `start`, every commit and merge as it lands
-(post-commit and post-merge hooks; warn, never block). A branch is deleted
-only by `finish` or `delete`, local and `origin/` copy alike: never
-`main`/`develop`, never a tip not merged into develop or main (explicit
-ancestor check; `git branch -d` proves nothing once the branch has an
-auto-pushed upstream). The reference-transaction hook vetoes any deletion
-or rename of `main`/`develop`. The four hooks run in every repo: `make
-link` generates `githooks/` and sets the global `core.hooksPath`; a repo
-that ran `gitflow init` (new/onboarded projects) keeps its own `.githooks/`,
-refreshed at session start. Foreign clone: `git config gitflow.protect
-false` / `gitflow.autopush false`; `GITFLOW_NO_PUSH=1` only for throwaway
-test repos. A branch ahead of its upstream is a defect, not a state.
+Every git action follows gitflow — in a skill, or an ad-hoc commit made outside
+one on request. `main` (prod) · `develop` (integration, off main) · `feature/*`
+ `bugfix/*` + `chore/*` (off develop → develop; `chore/*` = memory/doc
+maintenance, e.g. standalone `/capitalize` `/close` `/prune-memory`
+`/reconcile`) · `release/*` (off develop → main + back-merge develop) ·
+`hotfix/*` (off main → main + develop [+ any open release/*]). `master`→`main`
+everywhere.
+
+Never commit code directly on `main` or `develop`: branch first from the
+correct base as `<type>/<name>` (`.claude/**` memory/config commits are
+hook-exempt, following the work). Branch/merge only via the lib, never by hand:
+`bash ~/.claude/lib/gitflow.sh start <type> <name>` · `… finish`. Run `finish`
+(merge) only on an explicit human signal ("merge it", "feature OK"), never
+because tests pass, a plan step says "merge", or "ship" implied it. Assistance
+flows (`/feat` `/bugfix` `/hotfix`) and the standalone memory/doc `chore`
+skills auto-branch on a protected base but commit in place on a working branch,
+never finishing — so those skills branch to `chore/*` via the aiguillage, not
+the `.claude/**` exemption. New/onboarded projects get the model + the
+versioned pre-commit hook via `gitflow init`. Advisory, so two deterministic
+backstops apply: the per-repo pre-commit hook (blocks code commits on
+main/develop, exempts `.claude/**` + merges + the root commit) and Gitea branch
+protection on `main`/`develop`. Don't lean on `--no-verify` to bypass them.

 ## Security — non-negotiable defaults
-Apply at every step: design, scaffolding, implementation, review.
- **Input & data**: never trust user input; validate type, length, format,
-  range. Sanitize before rendering (XSS), SQL (injection), shell (command
-  injection). Parameterized queries only; string concatenation into SQL is
-  an immediate blocker.
- **Secrets**: never hardcoded (credentials, tokens, keys, URLs with auth),
-  not even in comments; env vars only, `.env.example` with placeholders. A
-  secret found in review → flag and stop.
- **AuthN / AuthZ**: separate; AuthN never implies AuthZ. Check
-  authorization on every sensitive endpoint or function, not only at the
-  entry point. Default deny; explicit allowlist over implicit denylist.
- **Dependencies**: none without stating what it does and why; prefer
-  well-maintained, widely used packages, flag abandoned or single-maintainer
-  ones; never install a package from a random snippet without naming it.
- **Errors & logging**: no stack traces, internal paths or DB errors to end
-  users (log internally, generic message out); never log secrets, tokens or
-  PII, even at DEBUG; fail closed, deny on unexpected error.
- **Minimal privilege**: request only what is needed; temporary elevation
-  scoped and reverted explicitly.

-### Destructive tools & data loss
-Written after 2026-09-21: a reviewer sub-agent traced `lftp mirror --delete`
-against a local `file://` tree, the target resolved to a real path, and 90
-seconds later the home, the NAS mount and 15 repositories were gone, four
-days of work never pushed.
- Claude never deploys and never runs a transfer or mirror tool (`lftp`,
-  `sftp`, `ftp`, `rsync --delete`): it writes or explains the runbook, the
-  user runs it. A test is a dev server on this machine, nothing more.
- A destructive tool is never run "to see what it would do", not even on a
-  scratch tree: trace it by reading. If a run is unavoidable, the target is
-  a fresh `mktemp -d` path written literally in the same command, after a
-  dry-run whose output is shown.
- Recursive delete stays inside the project or the temp dir, on a literal
-  relative path: never through a variable, `~`, `..`, a wildcard or an
-  absolute path elsewhere. `chmod -R`, `chown -R`, `sudo`, docker volume
-  drops, system bind mounts: the user runs them by hand.
- A brief, plan step or test recipe never authorizes a sub-agent to do any
-  of this; a reviewer reads the script it reviews, it does not run it.
- Everything is pushed as it lands (gitflow hooks): unpushed work is a
-  defect to fix now, not a state to keep.
+Apply at every dev step: design, scaffolding, implementation, review.
+
+### Input & data
+- Never trust user input. Validate type, length, format, range before use.
+- Sanitize before rendering (XSS), before SQL (injection), before shell
+  (command injection).
+- Use parameterized queries / prepared statements. String concatenation
+  into SQL = immediate blocker.
+
+### Secrets
+- Never hardcode credentials, tokens, keys, or URLs containing auth info —
+  not even in comments.
+- Always use env vars. Provide `.env.example` with placeholder values only.
+- If secret appears in code during review, flag and stop — do not proceed.
+
+### Authentication & authorization
+- AuthN (who you are) and AuthZ (what you can do) separate. Never assume
+  AuthN implies AuthZ.
+- Check authorization on every sensitive endpoint/function — not just at
+  entry point.
+- Default to deny. Explicit allowlist > implicit denylist.
+
+### Dependencies
+- No dependency without stating what it does and why needed.
+- Prefer well-maintained, widely-used packages. Flag abandoned or

+- Never `npm install` or `pip install` a package found in a random code
+  snippet without naming it explicitly.
+
+### Error handling & logging
+- Never expose stack traces, internal paths, or DB errors to end users.
+  Log internally, return generic message.
+- Never log secrets, passwords, tokens, or PII — even at DEBUG level.
+- Fail closed: on unexpected error, deny access rather than grant.
+
+### Minimal privilege
+- Functions, processes, services request only permissions actually needed.
+- Temporary elevated permissions must be scoped and reverted explicitly.

-
-Two graphify commands, easy to confuse, and only one restores the skill:
- `graphify install --platform claude` copies SKILL.md + `references/` +
-  `.graphify_version` into `skills/graphify/`. Touches nothing else.
-  This is the recovery command.
- `graphify claude install` writes the CLAUDE.md graphify section and the

-
-```bash
-npm i -g @21st-dev/cli
-21st login                  # browser flow, token saved in ~/.config/21st

-`make plugin` does both (Step 8.7 installs the CLI, then offers the login in
-an interactive terminal) and installs the skill pack that drives it:
-`21st-ui-build`, `-ui-explore`, `-ui-review`, `-cli-use`, `-ai`, plus the two
-publishing skills `-registry` and `-design-sync`. The five design skills
-follow the active profile: they are on under `full`, the default profile,
-and under `design`, `web` and `web-full`. The two publishing skills,
-`-registry` and `-design-sync`, are in no profile and stay parked until
-`bash lib/toggle-external.sh enable 21st` turns on all seven.
-
-The pack is machine-owned and gitignored. It cannot be installed the way
-upstream documents it (`21st install-skill`, i.e. `21st skills install
--global`): that writes into `~/.claude/skills/`, and the installer refuses to
-follow a symlink anywhere on that path, while `~/.claude/skills` is itself a
-symlink to this repo's `skills/`. So the install runs under a throwaway `HOME`
-and the result is moved into `skills-external/21st-*`, where
-`toggle-external.sh` and `profile.sh` symlink it in on demand.
-
-The permission gate is now one `autoMode.soft_deny` entry covering the
-outward-facing verbs (`21st publish*`, `submit`, `edit`, `delete`,
-`remove-from-catalog`, `profile set|upload`), because publishing a component
-puts it on a public listing under your account. That tier rather than `ask`:
-under `defaultMode: auto` (this config's default) `ask` rules were observed

+can `POST` to it and that body is injected **verbatim** into the tool result
+the model consumes (job8 audit, `dist/utils/callback-server.js:36`). This is
+in the third-party package's code, not this repo's config — **we don't patch

-## Mechanics (verified on Claude Code 2.1.283)
-
- **Pairing rule**: a `Skill(effort-<level>)` call applies its effort only
-  when the same assistant message carries at least one other tool call
-  after it; a lone Skill call is a no-op. Send the shift together with the
-  step's first tool call, shift first. That paired call already runs at the
-  new level: pair a downward shift with a pinned-agent dispatch or a
-  Read/Bash, never with a built-in judgment dispatch (`general-purpose`,
-  `model: "opus"`), which would inherit it.
- Re-loading a shifter already loaded in the conversation re-applies its
-  effort (the harness only dedupes the skill text), so bounce-back
-  sequences such as medium → max → medium work.
- A skill's `effort:` frontmatter applies from the moment it loads to the
-  end of the turn: on the user's `/skill` unconditionally, and on a
-  `Skill(...)` call by Claude only under the pairing rule above (a skill
-  Claude loads alone, such as `brainstorming` or `writing-plans`, applies
-  nothing). Last loaded wins, both directions. The prompt cache survives a
-  shift.
- **Stacked skills share one level**: skills that load together in one
-  build (the design stack) all pin the same level, since the last loaded
-  wins. Vendored externals get their level from `lib/effort-pins.txt`,
-  re-applied by `lib/effort-pins.sh` after every vendoring step; repo
-  skills carry it in their frontmatter.
- Dispatched agents run on their own `effort:` pin, never on a shift.
-  Unpinned agents inherit the level in force at dispatch.
- Headless sessions (`-p`, `claude agents`, SDK) ignore skill-level effort:
-  the run stays at the session level. `CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL` beats every
-  frontmatter; keep it unset (the session banner warns).
-
-Measure the split any time: `python3 ~/.claude/lib/effort-audit.py`
-(thinking/output/cache tokens per scope, model and effort).
-
-## Shifters
-
-`Skill(effort-low)` · `Skill(effort-medium)` · `Skill(effort-high)` ·
-`Skill(effort-xhigh)` · `Skill(effort-max)`. One tool call, one-line body,
-always sent with another tool call (Pairing rule).
-Typed by the user, `/effort-max` is a turn-scoped max: the relaunch lever
-after a STOP. `ultrathink` only adds an in-context nudge; the API level
-does not move.
-
-## Wiring — per orchestrator
-
-1. A dispatch span starts (executor, collector, fan-out) →
-   `Skill(effort-medium)`.
-2. Reflection resumes after a dispatch span (challenge synthesis, verdict,
-   plan revision) → `Skill(effort-<the skill's own level>)`. Concretely:
-   the line before every `lib/challenge-plan.md` call.
-3. The bookkeeping tail (memory commit, doc commit) → `Skill(effort-low)`.
-4. Escalation → `Skill(effort-max)`, then the skill's own level again once
-   the diagnosis is produced. Automatic points: verify-secure loop caps
-   (GATE 0 floor, GATE 1 conformity, GATE 2 security) and ship-feature
-   STEP 4b. Not automatic, by doctrine: the challenge fail-safe (a mute
-   challenger is an infrastructure failure) and "gone WRONG → STOP" (STOP
-   precedes any further reasoning); their STOP text names the level
-   reached and suggests `/effort-max` for the relaunch.
-5. Before any built-in or unpinned dispatch that carries judgment (a
-   `general-purpose` with `model: "opus"` or `"fable"`, the code reviewer
-   of requesting-code-review, a skill-runner) → `Skill(effort-<own level>)`
-   paired with that dispatch: built-ins inherit the level in force, and a
-   medium set earlier in the span would downgrade them.
-
-## Re-assert
-
- After any nested `Skill(...)` whose frontmatter carries a different
-  effort (feat → commit-change), reload the orchestrator's own level.
- After a prose gate that ends the turn, the resumed turn runs at the
-  session level. If the resumed phase is reflection, its first step is
-  `Skill(effort-<own level>)`; dispatch and orchestration phases need
-  nothing.
-
-## Never
-
- A shift never inside a dispatched agent: pins rule there.
- Max is for diagnosis, not for retrying the same fix harder.
- A medium shift never precedes a judgment dispatch in the same span
-  without an own-level shift paired with that dispatch.

-# lib/floor-guard.sh — diff-scoped detector of a quietly weakened quality bar.
-#
-#   bash ~/.claude/lib/floor-guard.sh <base-ref> [-- <pathspec>...]
-#
-# rc 0 = clean       no floor finding in the diff
-#    2 = <n> finding(s), <m> waived
-#    3 = usage error  (missing <base-ref>, or it does not resolve to a commit)
-#
-# WHY (BDR-100 class): "no weakened check in this diff" is exactly the kind
-# of judgment an LLM verifier can miss, or be talked past one line at a time
-# — a single added TS-ignore comment, a skipped test, a dropped assertion, a
-# coverage threshold shaved by one point. This makes that judgment
-# deterministic: grep the diff for the known ways a change quietly lowers
-# the bar, same floor doctrine as gates.sh (contract oracles) and
-# doctrine-citers.test.sh (citation census) — a mechanism, not a lesson.
-#
-# Adapted from addyosmani/agent-skills constraint-driven-development's
-# "floor guard" to this repo's own gate model: `git diff` instead of a
-# staged-diff assumption, wired into agents/verifier.md STEP 3 rather than a
-# pre-commit hook.
-#
-# Scope: `git diff <base-ref>` — working tree included (uncommitted changes
-# count) — restricted to <pathspec> when given. Every ADDED line is
-# classified into one of six kinds (full pattern tables below):
-#   SUPPRESS       a checker-silencing comment added, any file
-#   SKIP           a test disabled or isolated, test files only
-#   DELETED_TEST   a whole test file removed
-#   ASSERT_DROP    a test file's assertion-line count went down
-#   STUB           a not-implemented marker added, any file
-#   THRESHOLD_DOWN a numeric value lowered on the same key, config files only
-#
-# Waiver: an added line also carrying `floor-guard: allow <reason>` prints as
-# WAIVED and does not count toward the finding total or the rc.
