Reroute hotfix's deeper-bug escalation to the /bugfix skill (bugfixer is now a
pure executor, not loadable standalone). loops-light locks repointed to the
bugfix orchestrator + bugfixer-executor shape.
lib/tests/run-review-guards.sh — 5 whole-surface guards that RED if a banned
pattern subsists anywhere, auto-run by make test (run-*.sh glob):
G1 trailer (A1), G2 false CLAUDE.md attribution (A5), G3 strict-YAML frontmatter
(A4), G4 reconcile hermeticity (job3 B1), G5 hook-drift installed==emit (A2).
This is the check that would have caught A1/A4/A5/A2 at make-test time instead of
an adversarial review — the series' recurring failure was fixing one instance and
leaving twins. G3/G5 degrade to SKIP if pyyaml/emit-hook absent (portability).
Teeth verified: a planted trailer in a real agent REDs G1. Review fil rouge.
Any single-pipeline printenv/env dump now gets a redaction pipe appended
before it can reach stdout/transcript; `env VAR=x cmd` (legitimate
subprocess launch) is left intact. Compound commands (;, &, ||) bail
untouched — appending the pipe at the end would attach to the wrong
segment.
Discovered mid-implementation: rtk rewrite classifies any command
containing "env" as exit-code 2 ("deny"), with no settings.json rule
backing it — the command still reaches native evaluation and can run.
Adjusted case 2/1 handling so the redaction check runs regardless.
lib/deploy-commit.sh: a rejected `git commit` (pre-commit hook,
protected branch, signing failure) now exits 6 (loud stderr, distinct
from rc 1's "nothing to do") instead of sharing rc 1 with the no-op
cases. Header comment documents the full 0/1/2/3/4/5/6 taxonomy.
Closes J4-22 (UNTESTABLE): at client repos, a failed deploy-state
commit was indistinguishable BY EXIT CODE from "nothing to do" (rc 1
was shared 3 ways); exit-code-only callers couldn't disambiguate
(stderr-parsing callers already could).
Caller census (per report's explicit gate): skills/deploy/SKILL.md
documents and parses this exit-code contract in TWO places (bootstrap
commit + incident-recovery commit). Flagged to the user before
committing; confirmed GO to add rc 6 there too (additive — no existing
code's meaning changes) so the documented contract stays accurate for
live deploy runs.
New T10 in lib/tests/deploy-commit.test.sh (+3 assertions, 13→16):
rejecting pre-commit hook sandbox — asserts rc 6, empty stdout (no
stale hash), HEAD unmoved.
GREEN: full `make test` exit 0 (deploy-commit 16/16 incl. T10).
shellcheck clean, bash -n clean.
install-plugins.sh: mktemp failure building CFG_SNAPSHOT now aborts
the install loudly (err + exit 1) instead of warning and continuing
UNGUARDED — a failed guard used to mean CLAUDE.md/.claude/settings.json/
settings.json could be silently rewritten by graphify's installer for
the rest of that run. Closes §3.4.
Added T5 to lib/tests/curated-config-guard.test.sh: extracts the
WIDER header block (GUARDED_CONFIGS through the closing `fi` — the
fail-closed logic lives in the top-level if/else, outside
restore_curated_configs(), so it needs its own awk range) in a
subshell with a stubbed `mktemp` forced to fail; asserts exit 1 and a
loud "mktemp failed" message. +2 assertions (4→6).
Verified: bash -n clean, shellcheck clean (both files), full `make
test` exit 0.
New lib/tests/toggle-external-repo-resolution.test.sh: sandbox
replicating the real ~/.claude/lib -> <repo>/lib symlink layout,
invokes toggle-external.sh THROUGH the symlinked path and asks
`status emil-design-eng` (marked enabled in the physical repo tree).
Demonstrates J4-20 (UNTESTABLE + latent bug) against the CURRENT code,
on purpose — this commit is RED: reports "missing" instead of
"enabled", because toggle-external.sh:34's logical `cd` (no -P)
resolves REPO to the symlink's logical parent instead of the physical
repo root, so SKILLS_DIR/DISABLED_DIR point at the wrong tree. Same
BLK-006 bug class as profile.sh's historical breaks, un-ported here —
latent today (no in-repo caller hits direct `~/.claude/lib/...`
invocation), but reachable.
This intentionally reds `make test`. Next commit fixes it.
New T8 in lib/tests/run-deterministic.sh: pre-commit hook that always
rejects (exit 1), then attempts a memory-commit. Demonstrates J4-04
(UNTESTABLE, consequence CRITICAL) against the CURRENT code, on
purpose — this commit is RED: rc=0 (expected 5), stdout leaks the
stale (unchanged) HEAD hash instead of staying empty. `set -uo
pipefail` (no -e) means a rejected `git commit` doesn't stop the
function — it falls through to `git rev-parse --short HEAD`, which
prints the PREVIOUS HEAD and succeeds, so the caller sees what looks
like a valid hash for a commit that never happened. HEAD itself is
correctly unmoved (git did block it) — only the reporting is masked.
This intentionally reds `make test` (memory-commit.sh not yet fixed).
Next commit fixes it.
New T18-T20 in lib/tests/config-protection.test.sh (+4 assertions,
20→24). T18 Write payload, T19 MultiEdit payload → both exit 2 (pass
trivially today — the extraction is tool-name-agnostic — but lock
against a future narrowing to Edit-only; stated honestly, per report).
T20 sentinel containing ONLY whitespace bytes (" \n\t", not literally
empty) → exit 2 AND consumed — exercises config-protection.sh:44-46's
`grep -q '[^[:space:]]'` check specifically, which the pre-existing
T17 (zero-byte file) doesn't reach. Closes J4-07 (WEAK): every payload
in this suite said "Edit", so a future Edit-only narrowing (or a
weaker sentinel-emptiness check) would have failed open with no red.
DOUBLY GATED per report §3.5 (edits config-protection's own test) +
user's stated exception (STOP and show the exact draft before writing,
even though the formal AUTHORIZATION line said AUTHORIZED) — drafted
inline, user confirmed "proceed as drafted" before the sentinel/edit.
Mutations (lean scratch copy — only hooks/config-protection.sh + this
test file, not the whole repo/.git), one at a time, each reverted
before the next:
- T18/T19: gated the file_path extraction on `tool_name == "Edit"`
(python3 tool_name check + if/else) → both red alone, everything
else (incl. T1-T17) unaffected.
- T20: swapped the whitespace-aware `grep -q '[^[:space:]]'` for
`[ -n "$reason" ]` (byte-count only) → T20 reds alone; T17 (the
zero-byte case) stays green either way, confirming T20 tests
something T17 structurally cannot.
GREEN: real repo unmutated, 24/24 passed, shellcheck clean.
New S11-S13 in lib/tests/run-doc-shape.sh (+4 assertions, 19→23) +
truncate_last_n() helper (removes exactly N lines from the END of a
committed file — pure removal, 0 added lines, no heading, so the
ADDED-envelope and heading checks at doc-shape.sh:70/78 can't fire
first). Baseline = 40 plain committed lines, then truncated. S11
remove exactly 20 (== default DOC_SHAPE_MAX_REMOVED, `-gt` boundary)
→ within (0). S12 remove 30 → exceeds (1), stderr names the path. S13
DOC_SHAPE_MAX_REMOVED=5 override + 6-line removal → exceeds (1).
Closes J4-08 (WEAK): the REMOVED branch was never driven over
threshold by any existing case (S4 only removes 2 lines) — a
regression here mislabels a large doc deletion MINOR and doc-syncer's
auto-commit flow would swallow it silently (the exact RISK-1 BDR-040's
oracle exists for).
Mutation (lean scratch copy — only doc-shape.sh + run-doc-shape.sh,
not the whole repo/.git): changed `-gt "$DOC_SHAPE_MAX_REMOVED"` to
`-gt 2000` (doc-shape.sh:82). RED: S12 fails both assertions (30
removed no longer exceeds) and S13 fails (the hardcoded literal also
kills the env-override contract — DOC_SHAPE_MAX_REMOVED=5 no longer
has any effect). S11 stays green (20 removed was always within,
mutation-invariant). 3/3 reds land exactly where expected.
GREEN: real repo unmutated, 23/23 passed, shellcheck clean.
New lib/tests/curated-config-guard.test.sh (+4 assertions). Extracts
restore_curated_configs() from install-plugins.sh AT TEST RUNTIME via
awk '/^restore_curated_configs\(\) \{/,\/^\}/' (verified single-
occurrence, column-0 closing brace) so drift in the real script
propagates into the test instead of testing a frozen copy. Harness
defines GUARDED_CONFIGS/CFG_SNAPSHOT/REPO/info() itself (the array
literal at install-plugins.sh:41 is outside the extracted range).
Sandbox REPO with the 3 fake guarded files + a pre-populated
CFG_SNAPSHOT; mutates CLAUDE.md only (simulated installer drift);
asserts: mutated file restored byte-identical (cmp -s), the other two
guarded files' content unchanged (not touched by the restore loop),
snapshot dir removed. Closes J4-03 (CRITICAL): the guard against
graphify's installer clobbering CLAUDE.md/settings.json had zero test
coverage.
Mutation (copy of install-plugins.sh, lean scratch — only that one
file, not the whole repo/.git): inverted the cmp condition
(`! cmp -s` → `cmp -s`) at the line the report names. RED: T1 fails
(the mutated file no longer gets restored — the inverted condition
only copies when already identical, a no-op, and skips restoration
exactly when it's needed). T2/T3/T4 stay green, confirming the
mutation is localized to the restore path.
GREEN: real repo unmutated, PASS=4 FAIL=0, shellcheck clean.
Deleted T4e + its coupled echo note in lib/tests/run-reconcile.sh and
the fixtures/real-state.snapshot it read — superseded by SPEC-08's T7,
which actually DRIVES the tree_clean/pushed/msg_committed oracles
instead of miming them via a static line-count regex. Closes J4-09
(WEAK+drift): T4e only counted fixture line-suffixes matching
`=(true|resolved|present)$`; the snapshot itself was stale
(BLK-009=open contradicted blockers-snapshot.md's already-resolved
status) and unowned, and the drift was inert (`=open` doesn't even
match the count regex) — the assertion could never have caught
anything.
Updated skills/reconcile/SKILL.md:53's hardcoded "20/20" claim to the
new total (unguarded file, same logical step, ordered after SPEC-08+
SPEC-10 per the report).
grep -c 'real-state.snapshot' lib/tests/run-reconcile.sh == 0
(verified). No red demo (deletion, per spec) — gate is the green run
+ that grep. GREEN: 25/25 passed, shellcheck clean.
New lib/tests/fixtures/decisions-snapshot.md (neutral name, LRN-077
style): carries a --help token (so reconcile_contradiction_candidates
still surfaces the BDR-001 ⇄ --help-chantier candidate against
todo-snapshot.md), a "one-line ticket" line, and representative
OUT-OF-SCOPE/DEFERRED/follow-up context. T3 and T5 in run-reconcile.sh
now read this fixture instead of the LIVE $MEM/decisions.md; deleted
the $MEM variable definition and its stale comment. Closes J4-10
(FIXTURE-DRIFT): T3/T5 were the last live-registry reads in this
suite (T2 was fixed in job3-B1) — any legitimate prune/reword of the
real decisions.md would have reded the suite for a reason unrelated
to the reconcile engine itself.
grep -c '$MEM' lib/tests/run-reconcile.sh == 0 (verified).
GREEN: real repo, 26/26 passed (all 4 T3 markers + T5 candidate found
via the fixture).
Red demo (per spec — no code mutation, this is a fixture-substitution
spec): lean scratch copy, pointed T3's decisions-arg at /dev/null
transiently → "one-line ticket" (the only marker living solely in the
decisions-side fixture, not in todo-snapshot.md) goes missing, RED;
the other 3 markers stay green (satisfied by todo-snapshot.md alone).
Proves the assertions actually read the fixture rather than passing
vacuously.
New T7 block in lib/tests/run-reconcile.sh (+6 assertions, 20→26):
a throwaway git repo under mktemp with a LOCAL BARE origin drives the
3 previously-unexercised oracles live: tree_clean (dirty→rc≠0, clean→
rc0), pushed (pushed to origin FIRST so origin/main exists — else
rev-list is vacuously empty — then rc0 when synced, rc≠0 once 1 ahead),
msg_committed (rc0 for a present commit message, rc≠0 for an absent
one). Closes J4-12 (DEGRADED, prerequisite of SPEC-09/10): these 3
oracles backed report-only /reconcile output with zero test coverage —
a silent inversion would mis-report open-work state.
Mutation (lean scratch copy — only lib/reconcile.sh + lib/tests/
run-reconcile.sh + its fixtures + .claude/memory/decisions.md, not the
whole repo/.git, per the /tmp-exhaustion lesson from SPEC-01/02/04):
inverted tree_clean's rc (`-z` → `-n` on the porcelain-status check;
the report's literal "--quiet → negated" wording doesn't match this
function's actual `[ -z ... ]` shape, so applied the equivalent
semantic inversion). RED: both T7a assertions fail (dirty reads as
clean and vice versa); T7b/T7c stay green, confirming the mutation is
localized. (T6a/b/c red in the lean copy too, expected — no real git
history / skills dir there — unrelated to the mutation.)
GREEN: real repo unmutated, 26/26 passed (T7 included).
skills/reconcile/SKILL.md:53 claimed "20/20, shellcheck clean" but the
suite read .claude/memory/blockers.md live, so closing BLK-009
(d1e7423) turned T2b/T2c red for a correct reason unrelated to the
engine. Froze a post-BLK-009 snapshot (lib/tests/fixtures/
blockers-snapshot.md) and pointed T2 at it instead of the live file —
same approach the other T1/T3/T4 fixtures already use. Updated T2b/T2c
expectations to match (BLK-009 resolved, open = {001,003}). Suite is
back to 20/20 GREEN, shellcheck clean, matching the skill's own claim.
ship-feature: STEP 0e CONTRACT (request verbatim) → ENRICHED at the STEP 3
validation gate (design criteria appended [gated <date>], the human
micro-gate) → STEP 5 VERIFY+SECURE judges the branch against the ENRICHED
contract via the shared include. Distinct axis from STEP 6 code review, both
run (LRN-095).
init-project: contract seeded from the PROJECT BRIEF (V1 features → criteria)
→ ENRICHED at VALIDATION GATE #1 → STEP 9 VERIFY+SECURE. Adds the security
gate init-project previously lacked (was deferred to a later /onboard).
onboard: explicit NO verify-loop — it produces an audit report, not a change
to verify against a request; contract is scope-only, security-auditor runs
MODE audit (report-only), never a gate. Documented to prevent a misplaced
symmetry loop (BDR-050: dev pipeline != audit).
lib/tests/no-vacuous-locks.test.sh: deterministic backstop for LRN-093 (2nd
recurrence in this chantier → the advisory alone did not hold). Refuses a
literal \n in any grep/tf/tr_/tn pattern across lib/tests/*.test.sh;
flip-tested against a synthetic offender so the guard proves it bites.
lib/tests/loops-heavy.test.sh: 18 structure locks green.
Behavioral dogfood (both vigilance points, real): (1) enrichment — a fresh
verifier reads and checks a [gated] design criterion (ECARTS naming it
precisely); (2) escalation — 3 consecutive ECARTS on the same criterion →
orchestrator STOPs at the max-3 bound + presents the CONTRACT-vs-REALIZED
table, no 4th loop, no commit. First real exercise of the infinite-loop guard.

lib/verify-secure-loop.md: shared main-loop include. GATE 1 fresh verifier
(blind, contract from disk) → CONFORME straight to GATE 2, ECARTS loop max
3; GATE 2 fresh security-auditor (MODE gate) → PASS to commit, BLOCK loop
max 3 with re-verify-request-FIRST order invariant. Mute agent never a PASS.
feater.md: STEP 0.7 CONTRACT (proportional, silent on a clear feature) +
STEP 3 VERIFY+SECURE via the include. Nominal = one verifier + one security
dispatch; the loop only costs when it loops.
bugfixer.md: STEP 3.5 CONTRACT fed by the DIAGNOSIS (bug report verbatim +
reproduced-then-gone + regression test criteria) + STEP 5 fresh gates via
the include. Renumbered STEP 5 sub-steps (gates before the commit gate).
hotfixer.md: STEP 1.7 CONTRACT (silent autofill, zero questions) + STEP 3
security gate whose FAILURE REVERTS (git restore to pre-flight SHA + escalate
to /bugfix), never loops — the 1-attempt model preserved. No fresh verifier
at hotfix weight (the smoke-check verifies the trivial contract). Adds the
Agent tool to hotfixer.md + hotfix/SKILL.md for the security dispatch.
lib/tests/loops-light.test.sh: 27 structure locks green, shellcheck clean.
Behavioral pipeline dogfood on a fixture (feat adding a feature WITH a SQLi):

agents/security-auditor.md: fresh read-only-on-code SAST gate. Pinned
rulesets p/security-audit + p/secrets + p/owasp-top-ten (owasp REQUIRED —
measured: the 2-ruleset baseline misses SQLi + path-traversal entirely on
realistic Flask code), never --config auto, never auto login (BDR-048).
Severity map: secrets ERROR → CRITICAL, other ERROR → HIGH (block),
WARNING/INFO → reported. gate mode (diff, no Write) vs audit mode (Write
only to REPORT, rule-locked). DEGRADED (semgrep absent) still runs the
checklist and still blocks — never a vacuous pass (LRN-048). Anti-gaming:
a new un-gated nosemgrep suppression is BLOCKING. PROOF mandatory, mute
auditor never a PASS, blind (no iteration history), blocks HIGH/CRITICAL
only (LRN-047).
Grafts: onboard STEP 6 L3a dispatches it in audit mode (report
.onboard-audit/semgrep.md) in BOTH gstack branches — complement to cso
(cso is a gstack submodule, unmodifiable); synthesis picks it up via the
existing .onboard-audit/ sweep. audit-delta security axis runs the SAST
pass first, folds findings into the existing gate/fix/re-verify flow.
lib/tests/security-auditor.test.sh: 28 structure locks green, shellcheck
clean. Behavioral dogfood (fresh agents on a planted fixture):
BLOCK(9) on the vuln commit (2 secrets→CRITICAL, semgrep+checklist
complementarity — checklist caught the 6 semgrep missed off-context);
BLOCK(1) on a new nosemgrep suppression (understood semgrep's 0 was the
mask); DEGRADED → BLOCK(7) on grep-detectable secrets with semgrep hidden.
FP measured on real repos (faunosteo, game): owasp adds only hygiene
findings, contained by diff-scoping.

lib/contract-interview.md: mandatory upstream passage for all orchestrators.
Verbatim REQUEST (immutable), proportional questions (complete request =
zero, max 3 one batch), testable criteria + file scope, written to disk
immediately (.claude/tasks/contracts/<date>-<slug>-<HHMM>.md — a context-only
contract dies at compaction). Lifecycle: enrichment only at human gates
([gated] marker, scope micro-gate), supersedes for re-scope, aborted runs
deleted or committed status:aborted — never left dirty. Hand-off = path,
not restatement.
agents/verifier.md: fresh read-only verifier. Reads the contract from disk,
renders VERIFY — VERDICT: CONFORME | ECARTS(n) | ERROR. Blind: never
receives iteration history. PROOF line mandatory (LRN-048), UNVERIFIABLE
never MET, mute verifier never a PASS (retry once fresh, 2nd structural
failure = human escalation). Orchestrator protocol documented in-file
(max 3 iterations, re-verify request before security).
lib/tests/contract-verifier.test.sh: 31 deterministic structure locks on

Behavioral dogfood (2 fresh subagents on a planted fixture): gap case →
ECARTS(2) exactly as planted (NOT-MET located + out-of-scope flagged);
conform case with injected fake iteration history → CONFORME, noise
ignored, real python spot-check as evidence. Both outputs parse-clean.

The 07-02 tightening left bare tokens common in non-UI talk (design, component, theme, transition, frontend, palette) -> ~6 false-fires/session during the ECC config audit. Dropped them; dashboard now word-boundary matched (kills the ecc_dashboard.py filename match, keeps 'admin dashboard'); kept animation; added 'front-end design' bigram. Each fire now logs time+token+excerpt to a light file so 're-firing?' is measured, not argued. Regression test 18/18, shellcheck clean.

/release-candidate cuts a release by orchestrating the existing gitflow
release mechanic (start from develop; finish fan-out main+develop+delete)
and adding the one piece the lib lacks: the version tag.
- skills/release-candidate/SKILL.md: thin orchestrator — preconditions →
gitflow start release → prep (version.txt + CHANGELOG, breaking doc'd) →
run-tests gate → human WHEN-to-release gate → gitflow finish → git tag -a
vX.Y.Z (in the skill, lib untouched) → push (gated).
- lib/tests/run-release-candidate.sh: throwaway-repo flow replay. RC_TAG=0
reds the tag (gitflow fans out but never tags); RC_TAG=1 → 5/5.
- CLAUDE.md: Skill routing line. CHANGELOG [Unreleased]: /reconcile +
/release-candidate under Added (so the eventual v4.0.0 captures them).

/reconcile confronts declarative sources (TODO checkboxes, registry
statuses, ## Index) against real git/fs state and surfaces the gaps,
in 4 categories + contradiction candidates.
- lib/reconcile.sh: engine — body-only enumeration (never the Index),
git/fs oracles, BLK last-block-wins status, lexical deferral sweep,
contradiction candidates, pure reconcile_verdict kernel.
- lib/tests/run-reconcile.sh + fixtures (neutral-named): 20/20;
recursive-coherence T1 reds if the engine reads the Index (teeth).
- skills/reconcile/SKILL.md: thin orchestration + A/B/C write-back gate,
honest limits (lexical deferrals, contradictions surfaced not asserted).
- CLAUDE.md: Skill routing line.
Founding principle: never trust a declarative source as an oracle — the
skill practices what it preaches (tested). Built via writing-skills TDD.

(1) lib/doc-shape.sh — deterministic shape oracle re-checks each LLM-classified
MINOR patch before the silent auto-commit; a shape-suspect patch (added heading
/ oversize / new file / non-doc) escalates to the EXISTING SIGNIFICANT gate.
Genuine MINOR still auto-commits (zero friction, BDR-036 preserved). A structural
floor under the LLM call, not a semantic SIGNIFICANT-detector (BDR-040).
(2) lib/doc-commit.sh — guard the commit itself: a rejected git commit (pre-commit
hook / protected branch / signing) now fails loud with exit 5 + empty stdout,
instead of a false "committed" + the previous HEAD's hash + exit 0 that left docs
silently uncommitted (LRN-071, 3rd occurrence of the swallowed-commit pattern
after LRN-066 and LRN-068/BLK-012).
Wired doc-syncer STEP A4 (whole-set escalation: no=revert all, select=keep subset)

lib/tests/run-doc-behavioral.md — in-vivo whole-chain check (twin of run-behavioral.md for memory). Scenario A: doc-syncer patches a public doc, the include commits it surgically with dangling code present (coupled + surgical). Scenario B: a forbidden .claude/ path in PATCHED_FILES → helper refuses (rc 4), nothing half-committed, offender named (fail-closed + loud). Complements the 28-assertion deterministic suite (run-doc-commit.sh).

doc-syncer now emits PATCHED_FILES — every public-doc file created/modified this run, ONE PATH PER LINE — in both STEP 9 OUTPUT (full audit) and AUTO MODE STEP A4 (the path orchestrators call). NONE stays silent (no line → doc-commit sees empty → no-ops). Additive: detection/patching logic and the `auto-mode scope:` input contract are unchanged → callers unaffected.
Separator contract, producer↔consumer aligned + proven: newline is doc-syncer's OUTPUT format (paths carry no newlines); the agent splits on newline and passes EACH path as a SEPARATE argv element to lib/doc-commit.sh. The helper takes argv (no in-band separator) → a path with spaces survives as one argument. lib/doc-commit.md spells this out (never flatten to a space-joined string + re-split, which would mis-split a spaced path the helper then silently drops). New test T7 PROVES it on real git: 'docs/My Guide.md' → committed as one file (28/28, shellcheck clean).

Foundation for the coupled-capitalize invariant (Frame 2): commit ONLY
.claude/memory + .claude/tasks, never `git add -A`. Safety lives in the
pathspec because automation removes the human diff review.
Proven on real git behavior, not assumed:
- T1/T2: dangling code (untracked or pre-staged) never embarked.
- T2-bis: `git commit -- pathspec` takes the working tree, not a stale index.
- T3 idempotent, T4 fail-closed on broken state, T5 TODO.md in scope.
_changed_paths filters to paths with real changes: `git commit -- pathspec`
aborts the whole commit on a no-match pathspec (e.g. empty .claude/tasks),
unlike `git add` which tolerates it.
