Journal

2026-04-23

  • Restructured tree: tasks/ → .claude/tasks/, created .claude/memory/ (5 registries) + .claude/audits/.
  • Adapted CLAUDE.md + skills onboard, init-project + agent onboarder + lib/project-archetypes/dotfiles-meta.md.
  • Added CAPITALIZE step in ship-feature, bugfix, hotfix, feat, commit-change + created /close skill for session-end ritual.
  • 2nd user verify-gate caught bugs: .gitignore broke tracking (fixed BDR-003); harden/validate dispatcher bash broken after audit move (LRN-002).
  • Audits routed to .claude/audits/ (seo/geo/harden/validate/code-clean) + MIGRATION.md written for existing projects.
  • 9 atomic commits (c721a36..a9606aa) via /commit-change — first real exec of Phase 4 CAPITALIZE.
  • Decisions logged: BDR-002, BDR-003. Learnings: LRN-002. Blockers: BLK-002.
  • English-only rule enforced in all CAPITALIZE specs (commit bfcca72); 9 existing entries retrofitted to English in follow-up commit.

2026-04-27

  • Settings: switched permissions.defaultMode from "default" to "auto" and dropped disableAutoMode: "disable" (BDR-004); reorganised top-level keys + added effortLevel: "xhigh"; removed stale root TODO.md (already migrated to .claude/tasks/TODO.md).
  • Learning: Claude Code disable* settings use sentinel string "disable", not boolean (LRN-003).
  • 3 atomic commits (f7f033f..1421578) via /commit-change.
  • Animation lib autoflow added: new helper lib/animation-lib-check.sh + STEP 5e in /init-project (auto-install) + STEP 2.5 in /onboard (opt-in) + read-only detection in plugin-advisor PHASE 1/2/3 + signal in lib/design-gate.md + scaffolder note. motion chosen over legacy framer-motion (BDR-005, LRN-004).

2026-05-03

  • Added JuliusBrussee/caveman as 4th always-on plugin (BDR-006). Full install: plugin + standalone hooks + caveman-shrink MCP scaffold (snippet only, not auto-registered — proxy needs upstream wrapper, LRN-006).
  • Discovered two co-masking bugs: claude plugin install doesn't enable (LRN-005) + session-start.sh hardcoded "✅ ON: security-guidance rtk superpowers" regardless of actual state. Added enable_plugin() helper + plugin_enabled() detector reading enabledPlugins from settings.json. Banner now reflects reality.
  • Side fix: doctor.sh exited under set -euo pipefail when gstack/skills/ missing — wrapped find in brace + || true.
  • 3 atomic commits (0184818..2ec7935).

2026-05-04

  • Built skill profile system (BDR-007): lib/profile.sh + lib/profiles/{design,dev,qa,audit,minimal}.profile partition gstack + personal skills by purpose. Activation toggles symlinks skills/ ↔ skills-disabled/.
  • Wired into agents/plugin-advisor.md (DETECT call to profile.sh current + new PROFILE line in OUTPUT + new "Skill profiles" subsection in TOGGLING EXTERNAL TOOLS), lib/toggle-external.sh (header pointer), Makefile (4 targets), skills/profile/SKILL.md (/profile slash command).
  • cmd_current honestly reports "full" when no gstack__* entry exists in skills-disabled/ — avoids "100% match" trap when full gstack on.
  • Tested end-to-end: list/show/current/diff/set/reset/apply all green; shellcheck clean; symlink state restored after reset.
  • Profile system v2 (BDR-008): extended profile.sh to toggle Claude plugins (claude plugin enable|disable) + MCP servers (magic via lib/toggle-external.sh). Added 4 new profiles: web, seo, web-full, backend. Refined existing profiles to use plugin@<marketplace> syntax + cli entries. Always-on plugins protected by MANAGED_PLUGINS allowlist + PROTECTED_PLUGINS denylist.
  • Verified: set web enables ui-ux-pro-max + magic; set seo disables ui-ux-pro-max; set minimal disables ui-ux-pro-max but spares caveman/security-guidance/superpowers. current heuristic respects ties (web-full beats web at 100%).

2026-05-05

  • Mandated caveman format on all .claude/memory/*.md writes (BDR-009). Rule added to CLAUDE.md "Memory registries" section. Self-applied: CLAUDE.md prose compressed in same pass.
  • Compressed 5 existing registries via /caveman:compress (decisions, learnings, blockers, journal, evals) — ~40% input-token reduction per session-start load.
  • Side chores: disabled example-skills@anthropic-agent-skills plugin in settings.json; gitignored *.original.md compress backups (recoverable via git history).
  • 4 atomic commits (0275eed..639486a) via /commit-change.

2026-05-06

  • darwin-skill round 1 across 18 personal skills. Mean 83.4 → 88.7 (+5.3). 16 keeps, 2 reverts (code-clean, doc — D2 dry_run noise). Branch auto-optimize/skills-20260506-1730. 22 commits, 35 files changed.
  • Top gains (analyze +18.5, skills-perso +11.9, refactor +11.0, hotfix +9.0) all from same shape: edge-case table in agent file. Captured as LRN-008.
  • LRN-009: dry_run ratchet too strict for skills already >91; LRN-010: ~/.claude/skills,agents symlink to Documents/claude — git operations must run from there.
  • Audit report .claude/audits/DARWIN-SKILL-OPTIMIZATION.md. Eval log ~/.agents/skills/darwin-skill/results.tsv (38 rows). Branch awaits manual review before merge.

2026-05-07

  • /client-handover gates SEO classique + GEO (IA) independently at ≥17/20 (BDR-010). Was: combined display only, gate fired on SEO alone. Now: 4-axis gate (SEO, GEO, HARDEN, VALIDATE), axis-aware fix loop, per-axis override transparency.
  • Pattern captured as LRN-011: single subagent emits N gated scores → labeled extraction + axis-aware loop + per-axis escalation. Generalizes to future multi-metric audits (e.g. /harden split TLS/headers/redirects).
  • 1 atomic commit 5569a80 (feat(client-handover): split SEO + GEO scores, gate GEO at ≥17/20). Bash unit tested extract_score_labeled on 4 cases (new format, /100 normalize, legacy fallback, GEO UNKNOWN strict) — all OK.
  • /client-handover deliverable refactor (BDR-011): 4-chapter structure (brief+pourquoi / fait ≤300w sans jargon / actions client / détails techniques) + branded HTML+PDF via ZenQuality identity (greens #1A3A25/#2D5A3D/#4A7C59/#87A878, Inter+Playfair Display, cover page logo+tagline). Cascade renderer: MD→HTML (pandoc>python markdown>npx marked) then HTML→PDF (weasyprint>wkhtmltopdf>chromium).
  • STEP 15 hard gates: chapter 2 word count ≤300 (wc -w) + forbidden-token grep (no /seo, /harden, /validate, SEO.md, SCORE_* etc. in chapters 1–3). Chapter 4 may use them in glossary.
  • LRN-012 captured: bash heredoc + stdin pipe collision (printf | python3 - <<'PY' ... PY) silently drops piped data — heredoc wins stdin. Diagnose via bash -x. Fix: pass via env var or file path, never via stdin combined with heredoc. Hit during v1 handover-to-pdf.sh, fixed before commit.
  • 1 atomic commit e06b52a (feat(client-handover): 4-chapter doc structure + branded HTML/PDF rendering). End-to-end tested with synthetic boulangerie handover (179w chapter 2, no leaks, HTML 11KB + PDF 33KB via weasyprint).

2026-05-07 — /client-handover PDF rendering bugfix

  • Fixed 3 bugs in /client-handover PDF generation reported on LIVRAISON.pdf test render.
  • Bug 1 (critical): MD→HTML converter chain — host had no pandoc, no python-markdown, fell to npx marked < "$src" which dumped marked CLI's own cli.js source instead of converting (marked 16.x stdin regression). PDF was 2 pages of marked binary source. Fix: npx --yes marked --gfm -i "$src". → LRN-013.
  • Bug 2: cover bg was cream #F5F0EB with 8mm green stripe — washed out. Final state after iteration: --white-pure bg + subtle radial sage/forest tints + --black-deep text + --green-forest accents (eyebrow/meta labels/footer/border). Solid green-dark tried first then rejected (too heavy for long client doc). → BDR-012.
  • Bug 3: SVG logo logo-horizontal.svg blended into cream bg. Default LOGO_URL switched to https://zenquality.fr/assets/logo-horizontal-1024.png (URL provided by user). High contrast on white bg.
  • Verified: regenerated LIVRAISON.pdf → 164 KB, 19 pages, full content rendered, white cover with black title + green-forest accents + visible PNG logo.
  • Files touched: skills/client-handover/scripts/handover-to-pdf.sh, skills/client-handover/resources/branding/zenquality.css, agents/client-handover-writer.md.

2026-05-11

  • Personal-skills orchestrator audit via /darwin-skill. 18 skills classified: 5 true orchestrators (ship-feature, seo, init-project, onboard, client-handover) + 12 single-delegation (justified — 6 agents reused multi-place) + 1 self-contained (skills-perso). All orchestrators verified doing real multi-agent dispatch.
  • client-handover pattern is skill→1 agent→subagents (3-level indirection) vs other 4 orchestrators' skill→multi-agent (2-level). Justified by agent complexity (1703 lines) — moving orchestration into SKILL.md would bloat. Description updated to make orchestrator role explicit.
  • /seo, /harden, /validate execution verified inside client-handover-writer agent — dispatches general-purpose subagents reading the target skill files. Real parallelization, not sequential.
  • Description CSO fix per /writing-skills: 5 skills had frontmatter >1024 chars (client-handover 1920, doc 1390, seo 1378, geo 1189, validate 1050) — all compressed under spec. 3 orchestrators (ship-feature, init-project, onboard) had workflow-summary descriptions (shortcut risk) — rewritten to "Use when [triggers]…" pattern. Captured as BDR-014.
  • client-handover deliverable restructured 4→6 chapters (BDR-013 supersedes BDR-011): scores promoted to §2 for 30s visual-proof-of-impact, NAP table promoted to §4 as prerequisite before §5 todos. Pandoc bumped to gfm+gfm_auto_identifiers for internal anchor links (LRN-014).
  • NAP checklist polish (commit abd2612): added "Description courte" field + replaced retired BrightLocal Free Tools with Moz Local Citation Checker (LRN-015).
  • CSS bugfix (commit 465fe9e): pandoc GFM checkbox markup <li><input ...> text…</li> has no wrapper class, adjacent-sibling rule li input + * yanks <a>/<code> siblings out of flow. Fixed by targeting li > input[type="checkbox"] directly. Captured as LRN-016.
  • 4 atomic commits b15b275..1da6a31 via /commit-change. Decisions BDR-013, BDR-014 + learnings LRN-014, LRN-015, LRN-016 capitalized. Pre-existing BDR-012 + LRN-013 Index rows backfilled (prior session entries existed in body but missing from Index).

2026-05-12

  • Ran /darwin-skill full pipeline on cwd repo (real skill source, not ~/.claude/skills/ runtime mirror). Baseline scored 23 personal skills + 5 broken gstack symlinks excluded. Avg baseline 75.6.
  • Phase 2 round 1 on bottom 5: status 45.3→76.2 (+30.9), refactor 48.4→74.3 (+25.9), plugin-check 59.2→76.8 (+17.6), skills-perso 66.4→80.1 (+13.7), commit-change 69.6→83.5 (+13.9). All KEEP. Avg 58.0→78.2 (+20.2/skill).
  • Rounds 2-3 skipped — diminishing returns past round 1 on dispatcher pattern. graphify (29.0, 62KB SKILL.md) deferred to Phase 2.5 exploratory rewrite per user.
  • Pattern observed: thin-dispatcher round-1 invariant = fallback + frontmatter triggers. Replicable across the 4 dispatchers tested. Captured as LRN-017.
  • Methodology gotcha: darwin eval subagents drift on total math (factor-10 errors, D8 weight 7 vs 25). Direction reliable, magnitude noisy. Captured as LRN-018. Recompute totals in main thread going forward.
  • BDR-015: broken gstack symlinks (5 dirs) excluded from darwin scope — external ownership + missing targets.
  • BLK-003: scripts/screenshot.mjs hardcoded macOS path → PNG cards skipped on Linux. Markdown report + 5 new test-prompts.json + 5 optimized SKILL.md only. Upstream issue, workaround in place.
  • Branch auto-optimize/20260512-1319 merged via --no-ff to master. 6 commits land. Report at .claude/audits/DARWIN-SKILL-2026-05-12.md. results.tsv at ~/.agents/skills/darwin-skill/results.tsv (33 rows).
  • Pre-existing uncommitted agents/doc-syncer.md (mtime 15:33, before session) NOT touched — left for the work session that owns it.

2026-05-15

  • /commit-change over working tree: 2 commits land. 7ee9b42 feat(doc-syncer): README mandatory + 14-section prod-only DEPLOY.md reworks STEP 5/6/8/A4 — README AUTO+unconditional, DEPLOY.md prod-only, 14-section VPS template. f57a7f2 chore(settings): enable ui-ux-pro-max skill toggles ui-ux-pro-max@ui-ux-pro-max-skill false → true.
  • BDR-016 capitalized — README AUTO+unconditional + DEPLOY prod-only is design decision: opt-out makes repo look abandoned, mixed dev/prod DEPLOY = drift source. README has only yes/edit at validation gate, no skip.
  • LRN-019 capitalized — doc split by audience (README=dev, DEPLOY=ops) generalizes across deployable projects. 14-section VPS template = ceiling not floor, drop sections that don't apply. Audience test: junior dev → README, on-call SRE → DEPLOY.
  • Skipped: skills-external/gstack (submodule pointer unchanged, only .gbrain/+.hermes/ untracked inside), Screenshot from 2026-05-09 02-40-42.png (binary, default-exclude).

2026-05-18

  • /feat adds lib/profiles/full.profile — superset of web-full + plan + dev + audit + deploy + session hygiene. Use case: /profile set full before /init-project to have brainstorm → design → architecture review → scaffold → implement → ship → audit pipeline in one session.
  • BDR-017 capitalized — full profile rationale: init-project covers 13 steps touching all skill families; existing profiles slice (web-full = website, dev = code, audit = audit). One named profile beats apply web-full && apply dev && apply audit.
  • LRN-020 capitalized — sentinel/identifier collision pattern: cmd_current's "full (no profile set)" literal collided with new profile name. Rule: sentinels must be outside the entity namespace. Renamed to "none".
  • Commit feat(profile): add full profile — 3 files (+86 -1).

2026-05-20

  • /bugfix on /ship-feature blocker — orphan wrapper at ~/.claude/commands/ship-feature.md referenced 6 agent files; 5 deleted by refactor commits 0241e1d + 21960e0. Removed wrapper; skill at ~/.claude/skills/ship-feature/SKILL.md is sole /ship-feature resolver.
  • BLK-004 capitalized — wrapper survived refactor because untracked in ~/.claude git repo + never sweep-audited post-migration.
  • LRN-021 capitalized — post-refactor sweep rule: grep -rln "agents/foo.md" ~/.claude/commands/ after any orchestrator migration. Add to /onboard + /init-project audit phase.

2026-05-21

  • /hotfix on /profile set full warning — ⚠ missing: checkpoint — try: bash link.sh despite link.sh reporting all symlinks up to date. Root cause: gstack upstream renamed checkpoint skill to context-save (shadow conflict with Claude Code native /checkpoint rewind alias). Five profile files (dev, backend, full, web, web-full) + CLAUDE.md routing line referenced dead checkpoint name. link.sh can't materialize a skill that no longer exists upstream → misleading next-step hint.
  • Fixed: s/checkpoint/context-save/ in 5 profiles (commit 69c5ded). CLAUDE.md:193 routing line also updated locally but left uncommitted — file carries unrelated in-progress graphify section rewrite.
  • BLK-005 capitalized — gstack submodule bump can silently break profile entries; status: resolved.
  • LRN-022 capitalized — post-submodule-bump audit rule: diff skills-external/gstack/ skill list against lib/profiles/*.profile entries before pushing.
  • /hotfix follow-up — bash "$HOME/.claude/lib/profile.sh" current falsely reported none (all gstack skills enabled — no profile set) even with profile applied + 14 gstack__* entries in repo's skills-disabled/. Root cause: lib/profile.sh:43 used cd "$(dirname $BASH_SOURCE)/.." — default bash cd preserves symlinks, so $REPO resolved to /home/bchanot-ubuntu/.claude (symlink dir) instead of real repo path. $DISABLED_DIR then pointed at near-empty ~/.claude/skills-disabled/ (2 stale npx symlinks only). Fixed by adding -P to cd (commit a4558ee). cmd_current now correctly reports full (100% match, 14 gstack skills disabled).
  • BLK-006 capitalized — cmd_current false-negative when invoked via ~/.claude/lib/profile.sh symlink; status: resolved.
  • LRN-023 capitalized — $REPO="$(cd -P "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/.." && pwd)" mandatory pattern for any script meant to be invoked via a symlink into the install location.

2026-06-02

  • Added profile gstack on|off verb to lib/profile.sh. on = re-enable all parked gstack keeping .active-profile label intact (vs reset which clears to "none"); off = disable gstack not in active profile (errors if none). User wanted centralized toggle without losing profile context.
  • Extracted 3 helpers (enable_all_gstack/disable_gstack_not_in/parked_gstack_count); refactored cmd_reset+cmd_set to reuse — behavior preserved, 6-case test + exact state-restore assertion PASS, shellcheck CLEAN. Doc: SKILL.md argument-hint + examples + output-policy. Makefile generic make profile cmd="gstack on" already covers it.
  • Corrected own false flag: full.profile omitting ios-*/spec is curation by design (BDR-017 caveat), NOT a bug — caught before any edit. Surfaced real gap: 6 gstack source skills unlinked post-submodule-bump → BLK-007 (open, gstack ./setup domain, not auto-fixed).
  • Backfilled index drift: decisions (BDR-017), blockers (BLK-005/006).
  • BDR-018 + LRN-024 + BLK-007 + EVAL-002 capitalized.
  • Treated BLK-007 (resolved). Root: gstack submodule bump added spec (v1.47) + iOS device-farm 5 skills (v1.43); gstack ./setup not re-run → 6 source-only, unlinked. Decision: linked spec only (surgical symlink matching setup:440-476), added to full+web-full profiles; iOS NOT linked (Linux host, needs Mac daemon+Tailscale = dead skills). Completed .gitignore gstack allowlist (12 missing added incl. 6 parked that would noise on gstack on, stale checkpoint removed). Verified: spec enabled, allowlist drift EMPTY, profile.sh parses.
  • LRN-025 capitalized — .gitignore allowlist must cover ALL toggleable gstack skills (parked too), else gstack on surfaces untracked symlinks; reconcile profiles + gitignore + link/no-link per platform after every submodule bump.

2026-06-09

  • Built /capitalize skill (skills/capitalize/) — pre-/clear//compact flush: scan conversation → dedup vs registries → propose only NEW + uncaptured → approval gate → write all 5 registries. Distinct from /close (no dedup) + /prune-memory (curation).
  • Baseline-tested per superpowers:writing-skills: RED (no skill) double-logged one incident across LRN+BLK; GREEN (skill) passed clean on isolated fixture (2 new written, 2 dups dropped, trivial skipped, correct IDs, append-only). REFACTOR added "one incident → one primary registry" counter. Dedup half inconclusive (toy fixture eyeball-able — value shows at real registry scale).
  • Removed disable-model-invocation from all 19 editable skills (8 true blocked model+orchestrator routing incl ship-feature; 11 false were no-op noise). Aligns with CLAUDE.md routing — model/orchestrator can now self-route. Conceded own wrong "destructive" framing; real guard = careful/guard hooks.
  • BDR-019 + LRN-026 capitalized.

2026-06-11

  • Built /audit-delta skill (skills/audit-delta/) — recurring multi-axis audit (conformity CLAUDE.md / errors / deadcode / security), checkbox selection, scope = delta since last run via per-axis SHA markers in .claude/audits/audit-delta-state.json. Per axis: read-only audit → approval gate → fix → mandatory re-verify (same-axis re-audit + project checks) → marker advance. Answered user need: no existing skill covered "since last run" (health re-scans all, retro time-window, code-review branch-only).
  • TDD per superpowers:writing-skills, 4 worktree-isolated subagent tests: RED baseline 7 gaps (file-date boundary guess, prose checkpoint, single marker, no gate under "fix + meeting" pressure, lint=verify, mixed pass, auto registry writes); GREEN passed under same pressure (gate held, 0 fixes); REFACTOR found + patched unreachable-first-run hole (default full report-only, never from-HEAD); re-test pass. Worktrees cleaned.
  • BDR-020 + LRN-027 capitalized. Uncommitted — /commit-change pending.
  • Darwin run on audit-delta: 87.5 → 89.9, 2 rounds kept (0d2ece7 unreachable-user branches, 9fc93fa contradiction + corrupted-JSON + fail-closed revert), 8 live fixture tests + 4/4 blind-judge consensus, HL-4 stop, ff-merged to master. Result card generated. LRN-028 (baseline contamination) + LRN-029 (judges catch self-review misses) + EVAL-003 capitalized.
  • Darwin eval 26 perso skills: 5 judges structure (33.5–66.8/76), 5 full_tests. Stubs score low but execute great (substance in agents/*.md) — judge system not file. 4 confirmed bugs fixed + merged (geo headless gate ★, init-project broken ref, analyzer contradiction, onboard frontmatter); geo re-test 0 source edits, judges 2/2. Overwrote 5 existing test-prompts.json by mistake — restored. EVAL-004.

2026-06-12

  • Fable 5 audit global CLAUDE.md → refactor e7e9dac: 4 contradictions (graphify x2 stale, plan-skip, deviations, append-only), 3 dead refs, restructure (Tooling & skills + This-repo-only sections), routing +8 skills + gstack-OFF rule, caveman compress non-critical only (-1471 chars net). Security/Architecture verbatim by design. BDR-021.

2026-06-18

  • Explained claude-agent-sdk = lib to build YOUR own agent programs (NOT a powers-boost for the running Claude Code); pipx --include-deps wrong for a library (polluted PATH w/ 6 CLIs + jsonschema collision), venv is right home. Install deferred pending user's intended use.
  • Added CLAUDE.md ## Workflow subagent-delegation rule (fan-out → delegate, not serial) countering Opus 4.8 under-delegate trait. 2 commits: bc7f657 (settings model-pin removal), 02a0ba0 (CLAUDE.md). LRN-030 capitalized.
  • Note: learnings.md Index missing LRN-028/029 rows (pre-existing gap, left untouched — out of scope).
  • Rewrote agents/doc-syncer.md (commit edff761): scope = public docs only; .claude/ + CLAUDE.md read-only context (never target, never copied into public doc); added CONVENTIONS (Standard-Readme/Diátaxis/Keep-a-Changelog+SemVer/Conventional Commits), lean README, CLEAN mode. Conserved stack/DEPLOY-14/gate/AUTO-MODE. BDR-022 capitalized. decisions.md Index also missing BDR-021 row (same pre-existing gap).

2026-06-19

  • Merged /close into /capitalize — 2 modes (default flush + --ritual reflection), new STEP 2B TODO reconcile (PASS A restraint-only, PASS B explicit-capture + anti-noise filter + orientation→BDR routing), STEP 3 gate gains separate TODO block. /close now thin alias → /capitalize --ritual. BDR-023.
  • Built via superpowers:writing-skills TDD: RED v1 baseline too easy (passed) → strengthened to RED v2 (pressured) which failed on anti-noise + invented subtask + no gate → GREEN passed. Gate STOP itself untested (non-interactive harness) — flagged as skill Red flag.
  • LRN-031: skill value = gate + anti-noise + determinism, NOT re-coding what a capable agent does free; if RED baseline passes, harden the fixture before writing.
  • Docs routing synced (CLAUDE.md table + README + USAGE) in separate commit; caveman-purge WIP in those files left unstaged. Commits 9dc2b83, be0f047, 765e9d7.

2026-06-23

  • Reverted commit 1ddeed1 (centralized lib/install-prereqs.sh) — over-engineered for the real blocker. Replaced with minimal npm-via-nvm fallback in install.sh (b6cc8b1). Re-added jq prereq inline + doctor.sh fail-level (2194b11). BDR-027.

  • Diagnosed gstack chromium fail on Ubuntu 26.04: Playwright 1.58.2 doesn't list 26.04. Fix = gated PLAYWRIGHT_HOST_PLATFORM_OVERRIDE=ubuntu24.04-x64, wrapper-only (no submodule edit), install + runtime (211c7d4). Verified ldd + headless render on 26.04. BLK-008, LRN-038.

  • Fresh-install audit: make install drifted 4 repo files. Root-caused each: graphify installer clobbers CLAUDE.md (deletes # This repo only header) + injects MANDATORY hooks in .claude/settings.json; claude plugin install flips example-skills→true + adds plugin-dev in settings.json; example-skills cp churns frontend-design; npx skills add pollutes repo .agents/ + skills-lock.json.

  • Fix: reverted current drift (git checkout 3 configs); added snapshot+trap-restore guard in install-plugins.sh (curated config now install-immutable); de-vendored frontend-design + gitignored /.agents/ + /skills-lock.json (anchored so agents/ stays tracked). Guard tested drift→restore. Commits 51afe9b / 7de8761. BDR-028, LRN-039.

  • gstack chromium fix BACKFIRED: the PLAYWRIGHT_HOST_PLATFORM_OVERRIDE=ubuntu24.04-x64 pin made make plugin HANG at extraction on real 26.04 (download hits 100%, chrome never extracts) — worse than the original 0.5s fast-fail. Reverted (b9c3937). Root: isolated ldd+render proof used a sibling already-extracted build (rev 1228), masking the rev-1208 install-path hang. gstack browser stays unavailable on 26.04 (OFF by default); real fix upstream. Corrected BLK-008 + LRN-038.

  • gstack browser FIXED on Ubuntu 26.04 (full saga). git submodule update would NOT help (latest gstack still pins playwright 1.58.2). Two layers: (1) bumped Playwright→1.61 in submodule (native 26.04 build), (2) GSTACK_CHROMIUM_NO_SANDBOX=1 for AppArmor userns block. Both automated in install-plugins.sh (auto-bump gated on dep support-list grep; env gated on apparmor sysctl) + env to .bashrc. Verified browse drives a real page (200). Discovered user's .bashrc is hand-managed (installer's env lines had been wiped by a restore). Commit 3b8ffb1. BDR-029, LRN-040, BLK-008 resolved.

  • Fixed MAGIC_API_KEY false-negative: check grep'd repo/.env (symlink), never created because ~/.claude/.env was made AFTER link.sh on the fresh machine (and make plugin skips link.sh). install-plugins.sh now self-heals the symlink + both scripts use a tolerant regex (export/whitespace/non-empty). Immediate fix: make link. Sandbox blocked all .env* reads → diagnosed via dir listing + synthetic-line regex tests. Commit 1b028cb. LRN-041.

  • Removed obsolete alias claude='claude --effort max' from install Step 9 — settings.json effortLevel: xhigh is the source of truth and the CLI alias would override it (forcing max over xhigh). Step 9 now also strips the alias + old CLAUDE_EFFORT from the profile if present. A dtach cc launcher was prototyped then dropped — deferred to a later sprint (per user). Why missed earlier = EVAL-005 (never cross-audited existing Step 9 lines vs settings.json).

  • Made install self-sufficient + gstack on-demand per profile (user: "make install doit TOUT installer"). 3 root causes via install log: (A) install.sh ran link.sh BEFORE install-plugins.sh which never re-linked → npx-skill symlinks never created on fresh run; (B) npx skills add + gstack ./setup resolve target relative to CWD → darwin-skill landed in $REPO/.agents/skills+$REPO/.claude/skills, not $HOME/.agents/skills (self-reinforcing once $REPO/.agents exists); (C) profile.sh set full → 35 "missing — try bash link.sh" (wrong remedy) because gstack OFF + skills never in skills/. Fixes: install-plugins.sh runs npx from $HOME + cleans parasites + Step 10 final re-link; update-all.sh same npx fix; profile.sh enable_skill gstack symlinks on-demand from submodule (gstack OFF default, ON per profile). Verified live: link.sh → darwin OK; set full → 0 missing / 35 on-demand; minimal↔full cycle re-parks/restores; git clean. Residual: $REPO/.claude/skills/darwin-skill rm blocked by .claude/ permission guard → auto-cleaned next make plugin. BDR-030, LRN-042.

  • Probe #21858: user-level path-scoped rules (paths: frontmatter in ~/.claude/rules/) don't load in CC 2.1.190. 3-file probe → control (no-paths) PRESENT, path-scoped ABSENT. Native auto-memory on but empty (fresh machine). Probe files cleaned. BLK-009.
  • Compressed global CLAUDE.md 317→275 (−42, loaded every session): routing (cut name-obvious lines, keep non-derivable signal + dense catch-all; restored validate/plan-eng-review, feat/hotfix pointer), design (+ explicit FILE signal), graphify, then decorative --- + blank rognage. Caveman→250 declined (readability + instruction-fidelity). Commits ba743cf, 990318c. BDR-031, LRN-043.
  • Edit/Write refuse write-through-symlink → resolve real path (readlink -f); ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md → repo. LRN-044.
  • Inspected dirty gstack submodule (parent showed m): package.json+bun.lock = the Playwright 1.58.2→1.61 bump (BDR-029/BLK-008), NOT restore noise → left intact, NOT cleaned, NOT committed (submodule ref stays at clean 070722ace; local patch re-applied by installer by design).
