Two or more project paths dispatch one general-purpose runner per repo,
all in a single message, instead of processing repos one by one. The
runner inherits the session model — no pin, it carries tour's reflection
(fix decisions, convergence) — and every agent inside keeps its defined
tier (security-auditor sonnet, Phase B opus, doc-syncer sonnet). A dead
or mute runner becomes an explicit RUNNER FAILED summary row; the gated
capitalize offer stays in the main loop, never in a runner.
Bounded LRN-083 derogation recorded in BDR-084: the per-project fix loop
moves into its runner, but nothing a runner decides touches shared state
— independent repos, per-repo chore branches, branches left unmerged for
human review exactly as inline. Mechanics proven before building: nested
probe, 3 sub-agent windows all overlapping, 9.1s vs ~18s sequential.
Census §12: 6 locks, flip-tested. Single-project path unchanged.
The include is authoritative, but feat/bugfix/ship-feature/init-project
each restate the verify loop inline — an orchestrator following the
restatement alone would have skipped the floor. Each now carries the
GATE 0 bullet ahead of GATE 1 (4 new structure locks, flip-tested).
The contract-interview weight table stops promising a hotfix oracle
nothing executes: hotfix runs no floor, the hotfixer runs the suite
itself. CHANGELOG extended with the wiring + the RED result.
BDR-083 records what was taken from unlazy and, more usefully, what was
refused and why. LRN-141: an external skill's machinery encodes its threat
model, not yours — take the invariants, refuse the machinery. LRN-142:
structure locks are fixed-string, so reflowing a doctrine paragraph reds
them; fix the doc, not the lock.
GATE 1 is an LLM dispatch and the verifier's mandatory PROOF: line is a line
the verifier writes — nothing structurally stops it being produced without
anything being executed. Nothing deterministic sat between the executor and
that dispatch.
An acceptance criterion can now carry an oracle: indented CHECK: (command),
EXPECT: (success-only marker), EVIDENCE: (slot). lib/gates.sh runs them
fail-closed — MET requires exit 0 AND the marker, so a nonzero process never
passes on its error text carrying the token — and writes the outcome back
into the contract, so the fresh verifier reads evidence as fact rather than
trusting the executor's report.
GATE 0 runs that floor before any verifier is dispatched; a red build sends
the executor back for free, on its own iteration budget. ABANDON: <id>
<reason> turns an impossible criterion into a visible handoff that blocks
CONFORME and routes to the human gate, via the new ABANDONED(n) verdict —
a distinct token because it routes distinctly, never a dev loop. feater and
bugfixer gain a four-pass completion discipline, scoped so a pass can never
widen the contract.
The runner's parse fails closed on partial oracles, duplicate ids,
unindented attributes and runnable criteria with no EVIDENCE: line, and
executes nothing at all when the ledger is malformed. status never executes
and never writes; run always re-executes, since trusting written evidence is
the failure being closed.
Adapted from the unlazy skill (Leonxlnx/unlazy, MIT). Its Stop hook,
approval store, .unlazy/ tree, depth-tree arithmetic and Node checker were
deliberately refused — BDR-083 records each reason.
64 assertions in lib/tests/gates.test.sh, non-execution proved by sentinel
with its own positive control asserted first.
skills-external/emil-design-eng/SKILL.md is curl'd from emilkowalski/skill
by install-plugins.sh when absent and re-fetched unconditionally by every
update-all.sh run, so tracking it produced a repo diff on each upstream edit
(latest: Radix vars dropped for Base UI). Same category as frontend-design/
and impeccable/, already ignored on that rationale — a fresh clone re-fetches
it, so no offline copy is needed and nothing was pinned here anyway.
design-motion-principles/ has the same overwrite-on-update behaviour but NOT
the same bootstrap: install-plugins.sh only warns instead of cloning it, so it
stays tracked until that gap is closed.
Opus 5 follows conservative-reporting clauses literally; 'a manufactured
concern is a failure' risked suppressing real low-confidence findings.
In-place reword: ungrounded stays noise, grounded-but-uncertain files as
[MINOR] with the uncertainty in WHY:. OUTPUT grammar byte-identical;
census row added.
3rd tightening pass (series LRN-1005/1007): bare "ux" matched inside
French prose (2 logged FPs, both FR — latest "changement ux vu").
\bui\b kept: zero logged FP, one logged true positive, now locked by a
must-fire test row. Flip-tested: quiet row fired pre-change.
BDR-065 delete-side now automated (lib/gitflow.sh _gitflow_purge_transient).
LRN-138: gitignore != delete for run-time artifacts read from disk — use
commit-during-run + auto-delete at the integration boundary. TODO checked,
journal line.
_gitflow_purge_transient removes docs/superpowers/{specs,plans} on the
feature/bugfix branch just before the directed merge, so develop's tip
lands clean while the feature commits stay reachable as the archive
(git show <sha>:...). Best-effort: never aborts a finish (no-op when
absent, skip on dirty paths, restore index+tree on commit failure).
Opt-out GITFLOW_PURGE_TRANSIENT=0; purge-transient CLI verb. Automates
the manual post-merge cleanup BDR-065 left as doctrine (slipped once,
655e364). Universal via the ~/.claude/lib symlink. gitflow-test T17 a-d;
shellcheck clean; make test exit 0.
- Fresh-install block: clone URL → github.com/bchanot/claude, bash
install.sh/doctor.sh → make install / make doctor (user pass)
- magic MCP example: placeholder key line instead of WRONG/RIGHT contrast
- new subsection: SEO data layer needs GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID/SECRET +
CRUX_API_KEY in ~/.claude/.env (GCP steps, make seo-connect, graceful
degradation) — mirrors .env.example
- docs/plans + docs/specs (deploy-skill 2026-06-27): predate the BDR-065
lifecycle codification, never swept
- docs/superpowers/{plans,specs} (model-routing 2026-07-15): 6-wave
chantier — final W6 merge closed it without the purge step
Git history at the feature commits is the archive (BDR-065).
- MANAGED_EXTERNALS (emil-design-eng, frontend-design,
design-motion-principles, impeccable) + MANAGED_MCPS (magic):
cmd_set now trims both when the profile does not list them —
design leftovers no longer survive a 'set backend'
- cmd_set refactored to 4 symmetric trim helpers; nothing outside
the MANAGED_* allowlists is ever auto-toggled (darwin-skill manual)
- enable_skill external: from-source fallback (ln -sf
skills-external/<name>), mirrors toggle-external.sh
- stale usage() NOTE + SKILL.md updated to the both-ways reality
- hermetic test: 16 checks, fixture repo + fake claude shim (gstack
on-demand, from-source, park/restore, magic add/remove, non-managed
untouched); shellcheck + full make test green
