…i regex, observability floor) (garrytan#2470) * fix(test): eval-list CLI spawns from neutral cwd so slug detection can't dodge the fixture store getProjectEvalDir() probes cwd-relative .claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-slug; with cwd=ROOT on a dev machine the self-symlink makes it succeed, routing reads to an empty project-scoped dir instead of the seeded legacy ~/.gstack-dev/evals. Neutral cwd + absolute script path fails both probes deterministically — same behavior as CI.

… community PRs absorbed) (garrytan#2472) * fix(careful): warn on chained rm even when the last target is safe The safe-exception block whitelisted rm -rf of build artifacts by extracting targets with a single greedy match (.*rm ...), which only ever inspects the LAST rm in the command. A chain like 'rm -rf /; rm -rf node_modules' was therefore judged solely by its trailing safe target and allowed without warning, waving through the destructive 'rm -rf /'. Gate the shortcut to single rm invocations: when any shell separator (; | & newline, incl. JSON-escaped \n/\r from the grep extraction path) is present, fall through to the destructive-pattern check, which warns on any recursive rm. Single-command artifact cleanups still allow. Adds 3 regression tests covering semicolon and && chains in both orders. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * harden(careful): substitution separators + capital -R recursive flag (garrytan#2039) Two residual fail-opens in the same guard PR garrytan#2040 hardened, both verified by executing the script pre-fix: - rm -rf $(./wipe-all)/node_modules silently allowed: the substitution token ends in a whitelisted suffix and the safe-exception early exit skipped ALL downstream checks. $( and backtick now count as chain separators; plain $VAR expansion stays allowed. - rm -R / silently allowed: both greps required a lowercase r in the flag cluster; capital -R is the documented BSD/macOS recursive flag. Both greps now match -[a-zA-Z]*[rR]. Six new tests: substitution x2 -> ask, capital-R x2 -> ask, rm -Rf node_modules single-command -> still allowed, escaped-newline branch (existing code, previously untested), and a pinned deliberate FP (cd app && rm -rf node_modules -> ask) documenting the fail-closed direction on chains. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(context-restore): prefer the current branch's own checkpoint (garrytan#2052) All worktrees of a repo share one origin-derived slug, so they share one `~/.gstack/projects/<slug>/checkpoints/` dir. `/context-restore` loaded the newest checkpoint across the whole dir, so in one worktree it could silently restore a *sibling worktree's* newer checkpoint. Step 1 now orders candidates current-branch-first (read from each file's `branch:` frontmatter), keeping other branches as a fallback. A branch is checked out in at most one worktree, so this stops cross-worktree contamination while preserving Conductor cross-branch handoff: when the current branch has no checkpoint of its own, the full newest-first set is still used. - scan the 200 newest before partitioning so a current-branch checkpoint sitting below a burst of sibling saves is still found; output still capped at 20 - non-git / detached HEAD / branchless legacy saves fall back to the old newest-first behavior (back-compat) - +5 regression tests in context-save-hardening.test.ts (the garrytan#2052 bug case fails on the old pipeline); regenerated SKILL.md + proactive-suggestions.json Fixes garrytan#2052 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gbrain): pass --confirm-destructive on drift re-register (garrytan#1985) ensureSourceRegistered() handles match-but-different-path by removing the old source then re-adding it at the new path. The remove was issued as `gbrain sources remove <id> --yes`, but gbrain >= 0.42 gates `sources remove` behind `--confirm-destructive` (`--yes` alone no longer suppresses the data-loss prompt). The remove therefore fails with "To proceed, pass --confirm-destructive", which ensureSourceRegistered surfaces as "source registration failed" — aborting the entire /sync-gbrain code stage for any already-registered source whose path has drifted. The memory and brain-sync stages still pass, so the code index silently stops refreshing. The orchestrator's own safeSourcesRemove() already passes --confirm-destructive; this brings the lib helper in line with that convention. Keeps --yes for older gbrain. Tests: extend the fake gbrain shim in gbrain-sources.test.ts to simulate the gbrain >= 0.42 guard (remove without --confirm-destructive exits 1), update the drift re-register assertion, and add a regression test that proves the drift path no longer throws. Both fail on main with the exact "To proceed, pass --confirm-destructive" error and pass with the fix. Fixes garrytan#1985 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * harden(gbrain-sources): route drift remove through garrytan#1734 guards + realpath drift check Absorbing garrytan#2031 un-blocked a destructive remove that bypassed the garrytan#1734 data-loss guards: ensureSourceRegistered's drift path issued `gbrain sources remove` directly, without the detectAutopilot + decideSourceRemove checks every other remove routes through via safeSourcesRemove. gbrain >= 0.42's own prompt was accidentally blocking that path; with --confirm-destructive passed it is live again. - Drift remove now refuses LOUDLY (throws, actionable message) while an autopilot is active or when decideSourceRemove disallows; a silent changed=false would hide the drifted registration. - decideSourceRemove's extraArgs (--keep-storage when supported) propagate to the remove call, matching safeSourcesRemove. - Drift is realpath-normalized before being declared: a symlink alias of the same directory (macOS /tmp -> /private/tmp) is a match, not drift — the probable cause of garrytan#1985's reporter hitting the remove on an unmoved repo. - Drift fires a loud stderr line (old -> new path); perpetual drift in logs is the trigger for promoting garrytan#1985's reindex-in-place design. Tests: autopilot-active refusal (no remove in call log), fail-closed refusal on unreadable sources list, --keep-storage propagation, symlink-alias no-drift; existing drift tests pin the guard probes so a live autopilot on the dev machine can't flip them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(developer-profile): exclude mode:resources rows from SESSION_COUNT, TIER, NUDGE_ELIGIBLE (garrytan#2067) Every /office-hours run appends a mode:"resources" bookkeeping row alongside the real session row, so --read double-counted sessions (~2x): tiers promoted early and the builder-to-founder nudge armed prematurely. The file already filtered resources rows for LAST_*/CROSS_PROJECT; the same realSessions filter now feeds SESSION_COUNT/TIER, and the nudge predicate is the faithful allowlist (mode === 'builder') so a future mode garrytan#4 fails closed instead of re-opening this bug. 8 regression tests: count vs resources noise, tier boundaries both sides, nudge false-with-noise / true-at-3-builders, cross-project trailing row. Absorbed from PR garrytan#1991 by @mvann (fix + tests commits; the PR's version-bump commit is superseded by this wave's consolidated release commit). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(hooks): passThrough() two-branch contract — never emit permissionDecision:'defer' (garrytan#2035, garrytan#2006) Every AskUserQuestion died with "Tool result missing due to internal error" on current Claude Code builds (Desktop 1.14271.0, CC 2.1.177). Root cause: the question-preference-hook emitted permissionDecision:'defer' on every pass-through path. 'defer' is a real PreToolUse value, but since CC v2.1.89 its semantics are "pause this tool call for external resumption" (headless resume) — never "abstain". Interactive sessions have nothing to resume the paused call, so the tool orphaned. Pre-2.1.89 builds ignored the unknown value, which is why the hook worked when it shipped and broke later. The fix is the two-branch pass-through contract: - no context -> exit 0 with EXACTLY empty stdout - memory nuggets present -> hookSpecificOutput with hookEventName + additionalContext ONLY (the documented shape; plan-tune Layer 8 memory injection ships through this branch and keeps working) defer() is renamed passThrough() so the function says what it does, and docs/spikes/claude-code-hook-mutation.md's protocol contract (cited by the hook header) is corrected in the same commit — it taught '"defer" — let permission flow continue' and was the reintroduction vector. Test contract rewritten in the same commit (13 assertions across 3 files, verified fail-first against the unfixed hook): pass-through paths assert exact-empty stdout (a garbage/partial write cannot slip past an optional-chained parse), the nugget path asserts permissionDecision is ABSENT while additionalContext survives, and a new tripwire asserts no non-deny path ever puts the string "permissionDecision" on stdout. The deny (auto-decide) and Conductor prose-redirect paths are unchanged. Deployment: no migration needed — settings.json points at the absolute bash shim which execs the .ts live; /gstack-upgrade delivers the fix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(one-way-doors): unify credential noun net + wire it into the runtime (garrytan#2024) Library fix: revoke/reset/rotate now share ONE noun alternation (api key, token, secret, credential, access key, password) with optional plural s?. Pre-fix leaks: "reset my secret", "reset my access key", "revoke my secret" (mismatched per-verb lists) and every plural form ("rotate the credentials", "revoke all tokens" — \b(...)\b cannot match a trailing s). Runtime wiring — the regexes could never fire in production before: - gstack-question-preference --check gains --summary-stdin: the question text pipes via stdin (never argv — summaries carry quotes/newlines/shell metacharacters) and feeds isOneWayDoor alongside the id, so an ad-hoc destructive question with a stored never-ask preference now forces ASK_NORMALLY. Empty/absent stdin keeps exact id-only semantics. - question-preference-hook falls back to classifyQuestion(question text) when the registry lookup misses, so unregistered destructive questions pass through to a human instead of auto-deciding. - question-tuning resolver prose shows the piped form (SKILL.md regen lands in the wave's release commit). Tripwires (verified fail-first): full verbs x nouns x singular/plural matrix with the garrytan#2024 repro rows, benign-summary no-over-match rows, stdin transport survival (quotes/newlines), empty-stdin fail-safe, and hook fallback both directions (destructive -> pass-through, benign -> deny). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(design): loud integer-flag contract for --count/--retry/--timeout (garrytan#2032) design variants --count abc silently generated ZERO variants and exited 0: parseInt(NaN) flowed through Math.min into the generation loop bound. The same NaN class was live on the two sibling flags in the same file: --retry abc made generate() a silent no-op (attempt <= NaN never true, null output, exit 0) and --timeout abc killed the serve board ~immediately (setTimeout(NaN)). New design/src/flag-utils.ts: parseIntFlag (pure, unit-testable) + normalizeIntFlag (CLI wrapper). Contract matches the --viewports precedent (error loudly on nonsense — these commands spend real image-API money, a silent fixup hides typos from calling agents): undefined -> default; bare flag/empty/non-integer ("3.7" rejected, not truncated)/below-min -> exit 1 with usage hint; above-max -> clamp with stderr warning. --count normalizes at the variants() consumption site so programmatic callers are covered, with the ceiling derived from STYLE_VARIATIONS.length instead of a magic 7; the CLI passes the raw flag through (a pre-parseInt would truncate "3.7"). Tripwires live in test/design-flag-utils.test.ts — deliberately under test/, not design/test/, which is invisible to the bun test glob, TEST_ROOTS, and every workflow (wiring design/test/ into CI is a captured TODO). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gbrain): thin-client state — remote-MCP brains no longer classify as broken-config (garrytan#2051) A thin client (remote-HTTP MCP brain, no local engine by design) probed `gbrain sources list`, which gbrain's dispatch guard REFUSES on thin clients (exit 1, no recognized error string), so the classifier fell to its defensive broken-config default and every suppression gate silently hid brain-aware blocks from exactly the users on a shared team brain. New 'thin-client' state, detected PRE-probe from gbrain's own remote_mcp config marker via the existing gbrainConfigPath() helper (mirrors gbrain's isThinClient(); honors GBRAIN_HOME; zero network, immune to error-string drift), with a /thin[- ]client/ stderr backstop in the probe catch. Remote reachability is deliberately NOT probed by the classifier — that is the garrytan#1964 pathology; gbrain calls degrade gracefully at use time, and the detect JSON says so honestly (gbrain_thin_client: {probed: false}). The state is admitted at every suppression gate — gstack-gbrain-detect --is-ok (drives setup + gbrain-refresh), gen-skill-docs' detection override, gstack-config gbrain-refresh — while the sync stages (code/memory/dream) SKIP with an accurate reason: code indexing runs on the brain server, memory syncs via the remote brain's artifacts pull. The two consumer classes need opposite answers, which is why this is a distinct state and not a skip-the-probe special case. sync-gbrain Step 1.5 and setup-gbrain prose route thin-client to proceed, never into broken-config remediation. detectMcpMode secondary generalization: url-match against the config's remote_mcp.mcp_url (deterministic — gbrain mounts at the generic /mcp path) -> name pattern gbrain[-_]* -> stdio command token; gbrain_mcp_mode stays a 3-value enum. Tripwires: end-to-end --is-ok exits 0 on a thin-client fixture AND still exits 1 on broken-config (the gate didn't widen); pre-probe + stderr-fallback classifier paths; 4 detectMcpMode identification cases incl. a non-matching url that must NOT false-positive. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * release: v1.60.0.0 — regen SKILL.md, VERSION, CHANGELOG, TODOS follow-ups - Regenerate all SKILL.md from templates (question-tuning --summary-stdin prose from garrytan#2024, context-restore branch preference from PR garrytan#2054, sync-gbrain/setup-gbrain thin-client prose from garrytan#2051) + llms.txt. - VERSION + package.json -> 1.60.0.0 (bin/gstack-next-version, queue-aware: garrytan#1815 claims 1.59.0.0, garrytan#2213 claims 1.59.1.0). - CHANGELOG release summary + itemized entry crediting @jbetala7 (x3) and @mvann. - TODOS.md: three eng-review follow-ups (design/test CI wiring + documented pre-existing retry-after flake, /context-save worktree identity, gbrain reindex-in-place conditional on the new drift log). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(resolvers): compress --summary-stdin preamble prose to fit parity budget; re-bless ship goldens The v1.57.7.0 parity suite caps investigate's generated size at 1.09x baseline; the garrytan#2024 question-tuning prose (duplicated into every tier->=2 skill) tipped it to 1.092. Compressed to a single inline command + short pointer (the full rationale lives in bin/gstack-question-preference's header and the one-way-doors module docs). Ship goldens re-blessed against the final resolver text (conscious template-change acknowledgment, per the golden-file regression contract). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(e2e): office-hours-spec-review turn budget fits the carved skill layout (garrytan#2473) The test failed deterministically with error_max_turns at 9 turns on main and this branch alike (CI attempt logs + local main repro). Root cause from the failing transcript: the Spec Review Loop content is carved out of office-hours/SKILL.md into office-hours/sections/, so the agent needs discovery hops (grep SKILL.md -> ls sections/ -> read the section) before it can write — 8 tool turns + the closing text turn = 9 > the 8-turn budget, which predates the carve. Observed failures wrote a CORRECT summary on tool turn 8 and died on the closing turn. maxTurns 8 -> 12. Verified: PASS locally post-fix (7 turns this run — the extra headroom absorbs discovery-path nondeterminism). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(e2e): review-dashboard-via session budget survives runner contention (garrytan#2473) The test failed on CI (and its baseline run) with the timeout signature: 0 turns, $0.00, exactly 183s, 3/3 attempts — the spawned claude -p session never emitted a single stream event before the 180s inner timeout. The file's tests run concurrently on one runner; session startup queues behind sibling sessions, and this test had the tightest budget in the file (the 240s-budget tests in the same job passed). A clean local run takes 270s wall for 4 turns, confirming 180s was too tight even without contention. Inner timeout 180s -> 300s; outer bun timeout 240s -> 360s to keep headroom over the inner budget. Verified: PASS locally post-fix (4 turns, 270s). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(e2e): retro-base-branch session budget survives runner contention (garrytan#2473) Same class as review-dashboard-via, one test over in the same file: /retro is a long multi-step flow whose clean pass measures 225-239s — a coin flip against the 240s inner budget. First CI run passed at 225s; the rerun timed out at the 240s line on all 3 attempts (exitReason "timeout"); the local verification run passed at 239s, ONE second under the old cap. Inner timeout 240s -> 360s; outer bun timeout 300s -> 480s for headroom. Verified: PASS locally post-fix (17 turns, 239s).

…tan#2533) * fix(evals): align plan-eng/design plan-mode + finding-floor smokes to their declared periodic tier The garrytan#2077 demotion of these four stochastic tests to 'periodic' was inert: E2E_TIERS declared periodic but the files self-gated on EVALS_TIER === 'gate', so they kept running in the blocking gate lane and never in the weekly lane. Flip the four self-gates to 'periodic' (headers/describe labels updated), add a free static tier-alignment invariant test (dep-list filename mapping; unmapped self-gated files are reported, never silently skipped), and name the two plan-mode test files in their own touchfiles dep lists so the invariant binds for them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(pty-runner): scope-gate question/auto-select detectors + observation flags Two render-shape-anchored detectors (whitespace-squished, like the Pattern-4/5 collapsed-form handling): isScopeGateQuestionVisible requires the question text PLUS option-body text (native AskUserQuestion renders numbered options, prose fallback renders lettered — the option body appears in both; narration doesn't), and isScopeGateAutoSelectVisible requires the announcement prefix PLUS the selected-B token. runPlanSkillObservation gains scopeGateQuestionObserved / scopeGateAutoSelectObserved high-water flags (attached at every return path) so paid smokes can assert gate behavior across the whole run instead of the lossy 2KB evidence tail. runPlanSkillFloorCheck no longer counts a scope-gate render toward auqObserved (tail-scoped exclusion) — the floor measures FINDING-driven questions, and the gate could fire inside the 3s pre-target window. Unit fixtures pin clean/native/collapsed positives, narration negatives, and the verbatim template announcement string (template rewording fails here first, before the paid smokes degrade to vacuous asserts). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(plan-eng/design-review): auto-select B in plan mode at the scope gate In plan mode the scope gate's "What should I review? A/B/C" question is pure friction: there is no branch diff and the target is the plan being drafted. Both gates gain an ordered exceptions block, checked BEFORE asking: 1. Plan mode → auto-select B: review the active plan (in context or pasted), announce it in one line ("Scope gate: plan mode — auto-selected B (reviewing <target>)") so the user can interrupt; an explicitly different user-named target still wins; no plan drafted yet → ask as normal. 2. User-named target (outside plan mode): explicit-only — a path, a pasted doc, or the literal words "branch diff". A passing mention is not naming; when in doubt, ask. Outside plan mode with no explicitly-named target, nothing changes. Plan-mode is checked FIRST because the PTY harness seeds drafts as pasted user messages (claude-pty-runner.ts:1600) — ordering makes the seeded smokes deterministic. Pinning: seeded plan-mode smokes assert no gate render + announcement rendered (eng test 2; new design seeded test); plan-mode-no-op extends to eng/design (bypass must not misfire outside plan mode; first question must be the gate) plus a named-target case proving the pasted target is consumed; a drift-guard asserts the two hand-duplicated exceptions blocks stay identical modulo the two variant slots and carry the announcement string the detectors pin. Skeleton ceilings ratcheted with comments (eng 68k, design 89k; eng union ratio 1.08→1.09) — measured 67,006 B / 88,226 B after regen. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(autoplan): skip the scope gate when following loaded review skills autoplan Step 3 reads plan-eng-review / plan-design-review SKILL.md verbatim, and its section skip list omitted the scope gate — so autoplan ingested a hard-STOP AskUserQuestion that contradicts its every-question-auto-decides contract. One skip-list line fixes it; a static toContain pin in skill-validation keeps the entry load-bearing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: file scope-gate resolver-extraction TODO (eng-review D5 follow-up) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(pty-runner): positional floor exclusion, flag builder, outcome union, token tracking Review-army + adversarial findings on the scope-gate observability work, all verified before fixing: - Floor check: acceptance scanned the CUMULATIVE buffer while the scope-gate exclusion scanned only the 1500-byte tail, so an early gate render satisfied the floor vacuously once ~1.5KB of output accumulated (found independently by 4 review passes; predicate reproduced). Acceptance now scans only content APPENDED after the first gate render (positional anchor), and the LLM-judge 'waiting' shortcut no longer fires while the gate menu is the pending render. - High-water flags are built once and spread at every return path — the hand-spread pattern had already drifted (judge-waiting return omitted two flags), which made must-stay-false asserts vacuous on those paths. - isScopeGateAutoSelectVisible: tense-tolerant selected/selecting/selects token (must-be-TRUE asserts shouldn't fail semantically-perfect paraphrases) and quoted-occurrence rejection (a model verbatim-quoting the announcement while declining must not trip must-stay-FALSE asserts). Fixtures added for both directions. - PlanSkillObservation outcome union gains 'wrote_findings_before_asking' (returned at runtime via classifyVisible but missing from the type). - trackTokens/tokensObserved: cumulative-buffer token high-water for consumption asserts (the 2KB evidence tail is lossy and the plan-file fallback is unreachable outside plan mode). - New scope-gate-floor unit pins (from the ship coverage audit): both gate render forms trip acceptance and exclusion; a genuine finding AUQ is not excluded; tail-scoping semantics pinned. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(evals): harden no-op asserts, close tier-invariant fail-open holes, pin gate question strings - no-op regression: gate-must-ask is now UNCONDITIONAL for eng/design (the outcome==='asked' conditional let a silent-bypass plan_ready run sail through); eng/design cases force --disallowedTools so the pinned prose shape is contractual rather than hoping native AUQ renders match; the named-target case uses trackTokens for consumption and lists wrote_findings_before_asking in its diagnostic throw branch. - tier-alignment invariant: both quote styles matched; zero-self-gate, mixed-tier, and owning-keys-without-E2E_TIERS-entries are all REPORTED instead of silently skipped (the fail-open holes three reviewers found). - drift-guard: the generated gate menus must carry the exact question/option strings the PTY question detector anchors on — free CI fails before the paid smokes can go vacuous on a menu reword. - touchfiles: corrected the no-op cost note for CI concurrency + retry semantics. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(ci): register plan-eng/design-review skills in PTY eval containers The extended plan-mode-no-op smoke invokes /plan-eng-review and /plan-design-review, but the fresh CI containers registered only office-hours and plan-ceo-review — both new runs would return 'Unknown command' and fail every PR's gate job (Codex structured review P1, verified against evals.yml). Registration loops, the dangling-target fail-fast list, and the frontmatter checks (now a loop over the same skill list, so the lists can't drift) all cover the two skills. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(plan-eng/design-review): harden scope-gate exceptions against injection and ambiguity Adversarial-review wording fixes (Claude adversarial F1-F8 + Codex cross-confirmation), applied to both gate templates + regen: - Host-anchored mode signal: only the host's own system messages (plan-mode reminder or active plan file path) arm the auto-select; plan-shaped text inside pasted documents, tool results, or fetched pages does NOT count — injected content can't disarm the consent gate or nominate the target. - Multiple plan candidates: the host-referenced plan file wins; still ambiguous means ask. - The DIFFERENT-target override carries the passing-mention guard. - Plan mode + explicitly named target + no drafted plan resolves to the named target instead of a contradictory re-ask. - The numbered ask-path rules are qualified ('When no exception above applied:') so they no longer restate an unconditional MUST-ask that contradicts the exceptions. - 'Whenever this gate does ask — in any mode — it is a hard STOP.' - Shared preamble: 'any AskUserQuestion the skill fires is the workflow operating within plan mode' (was 'the first AskUserQuestion is the workflow entering plan mode', which framed the opposite of the bypass); regenerates every skill. - Ceilings ratcheted with attribution: plan-eng union ratio 1.10, investigate 1.10 (the ~250B shared-preamble reword lands the closest-to-ceiling skill at 1.092). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore: bump version and changelog (v1.62.0.0) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(pty-runner): active-render gate veto in the floor check + honest periodic-wiring docs Codex re-review P2s on the fix wave, both verified: - A finding AUQ rendering within TAIL_SCAN_BYTES of the gate (model waiting, no further output) was vetoed by the blanket tail exclusion until timeout. The veto is now ACTIVE-RENDER-aware: parseNumberedOptions anchors the last cursor menu, so only a pending GATE menu vetoes; the judge fallback shares the same check. Residual (documented): prose gate + prose finding inside one tail — floors run the native-menu path in practice. - The four demoted periodic tests are not in evals-periodic.yml's explicit matrix (a named instance of the pre-existing periodic-orphans TODO), so they run locally/manually until the PTY-capable periodic job lands. CHANGELOG claim softened accordingly; TODO filed with the wiring recipe. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: update project documentation for v1.62.0.0 Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: apply codex doc-review fixes for v1.62.0.0 - CLAUDE.md: scope the tier-alignment invariant claim (mapped files enforced, unmapped files reported) - docs/skills.md: document the plan-mode auto-select scope gate for /plan-eng-review and /plan-design-review - evals.yml: fix stale comment (PTY smokes register four skills, not two) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: refresh ship golden baselines for the plan-mode preamble reword The generate-completion-status.ts wording change ('any AskUserQuestion the skill fires…') intentionally regenerates every SKILL.md; the byte-compare goldens carry the generator's output and refresh with it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(ship): custom-hooks-path detection false-negatives on git worktrees The pre-push guard's HOOKS_IN_GIT_DIR check compared the hooks dir against --absolute-git-dir, which in a linked worktree is .git/worktrees/<name> while hooks resolve to the COMMON .git/hooks — so every Conductor worktree read as a 'custom hooks path' and the consented guard install was skipped.

Inner budget 300s -> 420s, outer bun timeout 360s -> 480s, and the test file is now named in its own touchfiles dep list so the tier-alignment invariant binds for it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(evals): 300s budget floor for the two 90s design-consultation SDK tests Root cause of PR garrytan#2533's e2e-design CI failure: design-consultation-preview failed 3 attempts at 0 turns/$0.00/93s — the session was up but the model's first completion queued past the 90s inner budget under concurrent API load (11 matrix jobs; the sibling research test booted its first tool at 4s, so this is API-side queuing, not CPU boot contention). The test was selected only because touchfiles.ts is a global touchfile; the tested behavior is untouched by this branch. 90s budgets cannot absorb one slow first completion. Both 90s tests in the file move to the repo's saturated-runner standard (300s inner / 360s outer, matching review-dashboard-via and retro-base-branch). Deliberately NOT re-arming the runner's inner timer on first stream event: an audit found ~100 outer bun-timeout literals sized inner+30-60s that a re-arm would silently break — the structural options are written up in TODOS.md.

…ll, sharded gate, /health fix (garrytan#2541) * test(helpers): shared skill-census helper with three explicit counts physicalSkillFiles (symlinked dirs included, root router included), authoredSkills (realpath-deduped, router excluded), registryEntries (what ./setup registers: unique frontmatter names + _gstack-command). One counting authority for the hermetic seeder, context-bill ground truth, and the catalog-budget test — connect-chrome's dir symlink and the root router otherwise produce three subtly different hand-rolled censuses. Ported-wave foundation (C11). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(evals): stop the harness grading itself findPreviousRun excluded only the file being written, by name, so every suite compared against _partial-e2e.json — the current run's own accumulator, relabelled with the current tier just before each flush. That is why every block read '+$0.00, +0s, Stable run, no regressions.' This harness has never been able to detect a regression, and reassuring output that cannot fail is worse than none. In-progress runs are now excluded by role, and a run with nothing to compare against says NO BASELINE instead of claiming stability.

Ported from fork commit 03c4eca, tree walk rewritten for the upstream layout (top-level <skill>/SKILL.md dirs, no skills/ tree).

Opted in at the three runPlanSkill* helpers and the four direct-launch slash-command tests (plan-design-with-ui, plan-ceo-mode-routing, autoplan-chain, ship-idempotency). New static tripwire (test/pty-skill-seeding-wiring.test.ts): any test file that sends a slash command over the PTY must route through a runPlanSkill* helper or pass seedSkills: true — an unseeded slash-command test spends money and measures nothing. hermetic-wiring.test.ts now blesses the repo-tree seeding path explicitly (config dir under runRoot, symlinks into the repo checkout, never operator ~/.claude). The CI "Register gstack skills for PTY smoke" step keeps a keep-me note: container cross-mount symlinks defeat the TUI scanner and HOME is not hermeticized, so the real-file copies there must survive this change.

Resolution order: explicit constructor arg, then GSTACK_EVAL_DIR, then slug detection — so the sharded paid runner can point each shard child at its own <evalDir>/shards/<slug>/ dir with plain env, no --preload. Runs collected under a shards/ subdir record their slug in the eval JSON (EvalResult.shard). findPreviousRun scans one shards/<slug>/ level and prefers same-slug priors, so each shard baselines against its own history instead of whichever shard flushed last. eval:list, eval:summary, and eval:compare enumerate the same one level of shard subdirs; eval:compare's no-arg mode also stops picking an in-progress accumulator as the after-run. eval-watch stays flat (documented follow-up): it tails a single dir for live progress and gains nothing from per-shard baselines until the runner emits a merged stream.

Bun's native --shard/--isolate covers none of this: no process-group kill (hung claude/codex PTY grandchildren survive in-process isolation), no never-started taxonomy, no per-shard env. Each shard child gets GSTACK_EVAL_DIR=<evalDir>/shards/<slug>/ (slug = test filename sans extension, stable across runs) so shard baselines compare against their own prior runs. Output classification lives in scripts/test-strict-output.ts (strict exit-code derivation, incremental fail-line classifier, child signal forwarding) so the runner and any future strict bun-test wrapper share one implementation. Enumeration derives from the shared paid-test-set module; tier exclusion fires only on an explicit whole-file EVALS_TIER === '<other>' guard. package.json gains test:gate:sharded / test:periodic:sharded, and eval:bg:gate / eval:bg:periodic now run the sharded scripts with detach timeouts sized to the worst case (gate: 49 shards x 30min / 4 jobs ~ 6.2h -> 25200s; periodic: 59 -> 28800s). test/paid-shards.test.ts pins enumeration, tier classification, and the kill-and-continue property with a real busy-loop shard.

Changes vs the fork: - lastRawLine tail-reads the final 4KB instead of loading the whole ledger, so appends stay O(1) as the file grows. - WARN-at-size: past 25MB writeReceipt emits one self-explanatory stderr warning per process (what the ledger is, how to inspect it, rotation TODO); verifyLedger gains a sizeWarning field. Rotation TODO carries the chain-genesis sketch (new generation's first record embeds the prior file's tail hash). bin/gstack-egress-receipt is a bun script bridging shell callers: write|outcome subcommands, exit 3 + EGRESS_RECEIPT_FAILED on stderr on failure; --no-payload records sha256:null for git-class ops.

Per-call fail policy: 'closed' refuses the send (return 3, problem/cause/fix message on stderr) and 'open' warns and proceeds. Payload temp files are consumed immediately per call — no EXIT traps, since callers like gstack-telemetry-sync own their own EXIT trap and a sourced trap would clobber it.

The HTTP status is recorded as the receipt outcome. - gstack-update-check: fail-open receipts (warn + proceed) on the Supabase ping POST, both VERSION curls (via a local _receipted_version_fetch helper that skips non-network schemes), and git ls-remote. The ping receipt is written inside the backgrounded subshell, so it can never block the script's exit. - gstack-brain-sync: fail-closed git-class receipts.

Polarity is FAIL-OPEN: user-facing generation must not die because an audit log hiccuped, so a receipt failure warns on stderr and the call proceeds.

The fork's CONDITIONAL/TRANSITIVE/LAZY/FAST-PATH parsers understand only its dispatcher layout and were dropped; the tier fields stay in the report shape (empty/zero/null) so re-adding a parser is additive. TOKEN_DIVISORS and their provenance docblock kept; --help notes recalibration via --exact's calibration block. Three upstream fixes over the fork: (a) findSkillDirs treats the walk ROOT as a container — the repo root's router SKILL.md is billed AND its children are walked (the fork short-circuited and billed one skill); walkMd skips node_modules and dot-directories. (b) installed-tree layout: subdirs that are their own repo checkout (a gstack/ clone inside ~/.claude/skills, detected by .git) are skipped, and directory symlinks (connect-chrome) are followed with a container-recursion cycle guard. (c) ROUTER_KEYS widened to the upstream frontmatter contract {name, description, version, allowed-tools, triggers, preamble-tier}. --exact writes an egress receipt (sink context-bill-exact, host api.anthropic.com) BEFORE any count_tokens POST; if the receipt cannot be written the run degrades to the offline estimate with a warning — nothing is sent unrecorded. bin/gstack-context-bill is the bun shim.

Token bootstrap is POST /extension-token on the local listener: the Origin header must be exactly chrome-extension://<GSTACK_EXTENSION_ID> and the Host header's hostname must parse to 127.0.0.1 or localhost (parsed via new URL, never literal equality — Host arrives as '127.0.0.1:34567'). Wrong origin/host → 403 with no detail. The tunnel surface 404s the endpoint (not in TUNNEL_PATHS, verified by test). The extension ID is pinned by a new "key" field (RSA public key) in extension/manifest.json; browse/scripts/extension-id.ts reproduces the ID derivation (first 16 bytes of SHA-256 of the DER public key, hex mapped 0-9a-f → a-p). The private key is not committed anywhere — unpacked/baked-in loads only need the public key. Extension side: background.js bootstraps and refreshes the token via POST /extension-token (403 → disconnected state); sidepanel.js direct connect path does the same; sidepanel-terminal.js's dead /health token fallback (read AUTH_TOKEN/authToken keys the server never sent, hardcoded port) is replaced with the window.gstackAuthToken path.

Pinned by the new test/strict-output.test.ts (also covers the chunk-boundary classifier). - test-paid-shards: EVALS_TIER env is validated (gate|periodic) like the --tier flag, so a typo can't self-skip every test and exit 0 green. - package.json: test:periodic:sharded sets EVALS_ALL=1, restoring the full-tier semantics the pre-shard script had (CI already set it; local eval:bg:periodic silently under-measured without it). - brain-sync.test: run() pins HOME to the temp home so gstack-artifacts-init stops writing/clobbering the operator's real ~/.gstack-artifacts-remote.txt every free-suite run; afterEach now also scrubs the current filename. - egress-receipt: cap each receipt field at 512B so a serialized line always fits the 4KB tail-read window — a longer line would make the next append hash a truncated prior line and verifyLedger report a permanent false TAMPER. warnLedgerSize short-circuits before statSync once fired (append hot path). - gstack-egress: import.meta.dir (Windows-safe) instead of new URL().pathname so grants doesn't silently report defaults on Windows; strip control chars from ledger-derived fields on render so a crafted receipt can't spoof the auditor's view. - extension/background.js + CLAUDE.md: renumber the identity-pin migration refs v1.62 -> v1.63 (main claimed 1.62.0.0; this wave queue-advances). - egress-receipt-wiring: pin lib/context-bill.ts unconditionally (both land together now); drop the dead RunShardsOptions.tier field. All fix-affected test files green; gate failures triaged as external-env (codex/gemini CLI drift) or pre-existing (hermetic-canary fails identically on base).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(evals): absorb codex/gemini CLI drift; external-service tests go periodic-tier - codex exec gains --skip-git-repo-check: newer CLIs refuse exec in an untrusted non-git dir (our temp skill dirs) — empirically verified. - gemini: --skip-trust was removed in gemini-cli 0.34 (argv parse error); dropped from the session runner and the benchmark adapter. A present- but-unusable CLI (deprecated individual code-assist auth path) now classifies as SKIP, not a false adapter failure; the benchmark live smoke skips on auth/rate_limit error codes (environmental) while still failing on timeout/unknown (the drift classes it exists to catch). - codex-e2e, gemini-e2e, and benchmark-providers gain the canonical whole-file EVALS_TIER === 'periodic' guard per CLAUDE.md tiering rule 3 (external service -> periodic) — the sharded gate runner now excludes all three (gate: 45 -> 42 shards). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(evals): parse single-logical-line AskUserQuestions in the PTY runner When the PTY reflows a boxed AUQ, ALL options land on ONE logical line after stripAnsi — parseNumberedOptions parsed one option per line, found only '1.', and the >=2 check failed forever while the correct question sat on screen (plan-design-with-ui timed out this way twice, with the rendered scope-gate AUQ visible in both failure buffers). The cursor line is now parsed as a stream of ascending N. tokens; DEC cursor- visibility residue is stripped before matching; plan-design-with-ui's budgets grow to fit observed ~6min preamble+thinking latency. Pinned by test/pty-auq-single-line.test.ts using the real failure buffers; all 142 existing parser-consumer unit tests still green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore: restore v1.63.0.0 (MINOR — user-confirmed final slot) The wave ships new capability (egress receipts + two CLIs, sharded paid runner, hermetic skill seeding) at ~8K lines — MINOR scale per the scale-aware bump rules. Supersedes the brief v1.62.1.0 re-slot; the version-free migration flag means no state churn from the renumber. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: spell out AskUserQuestion in the PTY single-line fixture Rename test/pty-auq-single-line.test.ts to test/pty-askuserquestion-single-line.test.ts and expand the AUQ abbreviation in identifiers and comments. House style writes AskUserQuestion in full in filenames, identifiers, and comments. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: sync every doc surface with the v1.63 release /document-release audit (4-lane, all claims verified against branch code): - README: gstack-egress + gstack-context-bill rows in the standalone-binaries table; Privacy & Telemetry gains the receipted-egress bullet (attempted- egress framing per the shipped threat model). - ARCHITECTURE: /health is liveness-only, POST /extension-token endpoint row + bootstrap mechanics paragraph; new Egress receipt ledger subsection under Security model; eval persistence covers the sharded runner, GSTACK_EVAL_DIR, and the finalized-run baseline rule. - CLAUDE.md: sharded test scripts in Commands; sharded semantics in the detached-evals section; PTY skill seeding in the hermetic section; egress invariant block beside the other server-egress invariants; catalog-budget ceiling beside the 160KB token ceiling; project-tree entries for lib/egress-receipt.ts, lib/context-bill.ts, scripts/test-paid-shards.ts. - CONTRIBUTING: seedSkills + live-tree seeding in the hermetic paragraph; sharded runner in detached runs; catalog-budget in the Tier 1 list. - BROWSER: extension token bootstrap section, tunnel egress receipts section, identity-pin migration note in manual install. - REMOTE_BROWSER_ACCESS: tunnel-start receipt bullet in the security model. - gbrain docs: /sync-gbrain + brain-sync egress-receipt behavior documented; dead consumer-token instructions removed (consumer machinery deleted this release); new fail-closed refusal added to the error catalog. - CHANGELOG: measured-vs-ceiling catalog numbers, contributor notes for the external-service tier move and the PTY single-line AskUserQuestion parser, release date. - TODOS: /health token-distribution TODO resolved by this release, removed; port-wave follow-up sections re-labeled to the shipped version. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: sweep drift that predates this release Surfaced by the /document-release audit; every fix verified against the current binaries: - gstack-brain-init was replaced by gstack-artifacts-init in v1.27.0.0 (hard-delete, no compat shim), but README, USING_GBRAIN_WITH_GSTACK, docs/gbrain-sync.md, and docs/gbrain-sync-errors.md still instructed users to run it — command-not-found on every follow. Same sweep updates ~/.gstack-brain-remote.txt to the canonical ~/.gstack-artifacts-remote.txt (legacy name still honored on restore, noted where users copy the file). - gbrain-sync-errors.md headings re-matched to the literal messages the binaries print today (the doc's whole value is grep-by-exact-message): 'gstack-artifacts-init: ~/.gstack/ is already a git repo pointing at:', 'Remote not reachable via SSH:', 'Failed to create or find ...'. The already-a-repo fix now leads with the command's own set-url suggestion. - docs/gbrain-sync.md 'Under the hood' linked a plan file that does not exist in the repo; replaced with the decisions themselves. - SIDEBAR_MESSAGE_FLOW startup timeline: /pty-session responds with {terminalPort, sessionId, attachToken, leaseExpiresAt} (v1.44 shape, verified at browse/src/server.ts:1860), not the retired {terminalPort, ptySessionToken} pair. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: fold the Codex accuracy review of the release docs Six findings, all verified against source before fixing: 1. 'Every send writes a receipt' overclaimed — fail-open sinks proceed with a stderr warning when the receipt write fails, so a fail-open send can go unrecorded (lib/egress-receipt.ts:8-14). Descriptive prose now says so; the receipted framing keeps 'attempted'. 2. 'Receipts hash the request body' is wrong for subprocess-owned sends — git pushes record sha256: null (lib/egress-receipt.ts:71). 3. 'grants shows every consent in force' overclaimed — it reports the four standing config settings (bin/gstack-egress:139-181). Reworded in README, ARCHITECTURE, and the CHANGELOG entry. 4. 'Zero-exception scanner' vs reality: the new-sink scanner carries a reasoned SCANNER_EXEMPT list (user-directed fetches, probes, instruction strings, skill prose). CLAUDE.md now names it. 5. Error-catalog cause/fix for the receipt refusal: the writer mkdirs the ledger dir itself, so 'missing' isn't a cause and bare chmod fails when it is absent — cause reworded, fix is mkdir -p && chmod. 6. gbrain-sync first-run steps described the retired binary's behavior: default repo is gstack-artifacts-$USER, and init PRINTS the gbrain hookup command (never auto-executes; bin/gstack-artifacts-init:384-419).

…~50 community PRs absorbed (garrytan#2571) * fix(hooks): nest freeze/careful permissionDecision under hookSpecificOutput Claude Code ignores a top-level permissionDecision, so the /freeze deny and /careful ask guards silently allowed everything. Nest both under hookSpecificOutput with permissionDecisionReason, update the shape-blind tests to pin the nested form, and document the constraint in both skill templates (regen included). Closes half of #1459 (freeze enforcement chain). Contributed by @jawadakram20 (PR #2331; team-init hunk deferred to the dedicated team-init fix). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(team-init): required-mode hook blocks with nested schema + exit 2 The generated check-gstack.sh emitted a flat permissionDecision payload and exited 0, which Claude Code ignores — required mode enforced nothing. The generated hook now nests the deny under hookSpecificOutput and exits 2 so the block holds even if the JSON schema drifts again. Adds a temp-repo regression test that runs the generated hook under both installed and missing-gstack homes. Fixes #2413, #2296. Contributed by @Masashi-Ono0611 (PR #2423). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(careful): close three check-careful bypasses via real JSON extraction The grep-based command extractor stopped at the first escaped quote, so any quoted argument truncated the command before the pattern checks ran — `git commit -m "wip" && rm -rf /` was silently allowed. Replace it with a python3/node JSON parse that fails CLOSED on unreadable payloads, add an IFS/base64-to-shell obfuscation tripwire, and stop multi-line commands from riding the single-line safe-exception whitelist (line-based grep would have approved `rm -rf /` when a later line matched node_modules — a hazard the real newline decoding exposed). Contributed by @wtamminga (PR #2426; the -R hunk was dropped — it landed in v1.61.0.0 — and output shapes updated to the nested hookSpecificOutput form). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(review,autoplan): require explicit run_in_background: false on specialist agents Claude Code v2.1.198 made subagents run in the background by default, which inverted the old "do not use the flag" guidance: review-army specialists and autoplan dual voices silently launched in the background and the merge step could proceed before they completed — regressing the #497 fix. The generated guidance now instructs an explicit run_in_background: false, and a static tripwire fails the free suite if the inert inverted phrasing ever returns to any generated SKILL.md. Fixes #2440. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(investigate): anchor the scope-lock freeze hook on $HOME, not CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR The investigate skill's PreToolUse hooks and Scope Lock probe resolved check-freeze.sh via ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}, which does not exist when frontmatter hooks run — the || exit 0 tail then failed open, so the debug scope boundary silently never engaged (#1871 follow-up). Anchor all four sites on $HOME/.claude/skills/gstack/ like careful/freeze, and add a static test asserting no frontmatter command: line in the guard-family skills ever references CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR again. Fixes #2469; closes the last live half of #1459 together with the freeze/careful hookSpecificOutput fix. The broader portable-install-root rewrite stays #1882 (its own focused PR per the TODOS.md decision). Reported with a fix by @maxpetrusenkoagent (PR #1873; absorbed narrowly — the cwd-walk rewrite belongs to #1882). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(redact): scan large diffs in line-aligned slices; stop digit-UUIDs matching as cards/phones The prepush guard blocked any push whose added lines exceeded the engine's 1 MiB cap with engine.input_too_large — a size error naming no credential — which trains people onto GSTACK_REDACT_PREPUSH=skip. Scan in 768 KiB line-aligned slices instead (no pattern is multi-line, so a boundary cannot bisect a secret); a single oversized line still goes to the engine intact and fails closed. Also suppress card/phone matches whose span sits ENTIRELY inside a UUID — digit-only UUID fixtures were 14 of 21 MEDIUM findings on an ordinary branch, the noise level that stops people reading MEDIUM at all. Fixes #2304. Contributed by @luckywenapere (PR #2543). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(redact): block Google OAuth client secrets and Telegram bot tokens at HIGH GOCSPX-prefixed client secrets and <bot_id>:<35-char> Telegram tokens are never-publishable credential shapes with unambiguous formats — both now block at HIGH like the other live-format credentials. Contributed by @francis-eye (PR #2357). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(redact-prepush): resolve the real push base instead of EMPTY_TREE whole-repo scans When the remote default branch is not main/master (or origin/HEAD is unset), the merge-base guess failed and the hook fell back to scanning the ENTIRE repository as added lines — re-attributing long-pushed secrets to the current push and, on any real repo, tripping the engine byte cap so the push blocked having scanned nothing. Derive the base from commits reachable from no remote-tracking branch, keep the empty-tree path only for genuinely fresh repos, and split the block message so an unscannable diff is reported as "could not scan (fail closed)" rather than "credential found — rotate it". Contributed by @stormeoio (PR #2398). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(redact-prepush): preserve the trailing newline handed to chained pre-push.local The chaining wrapper captured stdin with $(cat), which strips the trailing newline — a chained shell hook built on `while read` then never entered its loop for the final (usually only) ref line and exited 0, failing OPEN. Use the printf-x sentinel so the byte-exact input reaches the chained hook, with tests covering both the pass-through and the short-circuit paths. Contributed by @francis-eye (PR #2358). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(redact-prepush): close the ext-diff, header-lookalike, and ref-parse bypasses Three ways the pushed diff escaped scanning: (1) a user-level diff.external or textconv driver replaced the diff with its own output — zero '+' lines, so the scan saw nothing (now --no-ext-diff --no-textconv); (2) an added content line whose text begins with "++" renders as "+++…" and the blanket header skip dropped it (now hunk-aware header detection); (3) a pre-push ref line that failed to parse was silently skipped, leaving that ref unscanned (now fails closed with the offending line named). Minimal reimplementation of the two confirmed bypasses from PR #2498 by @lubosxyz (the full PR overlaps the chunked-scan work absorbed separately), plus the unparseable-ref hardening. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(pair-agent): keep the ngrok authtoken out of the transcript and shell argv The not-authed flow told the user to paste their ngrok authtoken into the chat so the agent could run `ngrok config add-authtoken` — putting a live credential in the transcript, tool-call argv, and anything the transcript syncs to. The user now runs the auth command in their own terminal; the agent only verifies via `ngrok config check`, and a pasted token triggers a rotate-and-reauth instruction. A static test pins that no agent-run bash fence ever contains add-authtoken again. Fixes #2335. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(update-check): crash emits CHECK_FAILED instead of reading as up-to-date gstack-update-check signals "up to date" with SILENCE, and it runs under set -e — so any unguarded mid-script failure exited quietly and was indistinguishable from a current install. Observed live as a 45-release silent-staleness incident. An ERR trap (with -E so it propagates into functions) now emits a CHECK_FAILED sentinel naming the line and status, and exits 0 so caller `|| true` guards can't eat it. Behavioral tests cover both the crash and the healthy-silent paths; egress-receipt wiring is untouched and still pinned by test/egress-receipt-wiring.test.ts. Fixes #1974. (#2378's HEAD-SHA staleness half was already fixed on main by the ls-remote + SHA-pinned VERSION resolution — close as already-fixed.) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(deps): bump diff 7.0.0 → 9.0.0 (GHSA-73rr-hh4g-fpgx parsePatch DoS) The advisory affects diff 6.x–8.0.2. The only API this repo uses is Diff.diffLines (browse/src/snapshot.ts:571, browse/src/meta-commands.ts:728), which is unchanged across the major hop; snapshot tests pass against 9.0.0. Closes #1588. Contributed by @genisis0x (PR #1599; VERSION collateral stripped, lockfile regenerated fresh). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ci(evals): skip eval jobs deterministically on fork PRs Fork PRs never receive repository secrets, so every API-calling eval failed at SDK auth — but only when Docker-cache luck let the jobs start at all, making fork PRs randomly red or grey. Skip the eval and report jobs explicitly for fork-origin PRs, keep the image BUILD (validates Dockerfile.ci changes) without the push a fork token can't perform, and leave full coverage for same-repo PRs, pushes, and dispatches. Contributed by @andrey-esipov (PR #2345). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(extension): deny token/port reads to content-script and foreign senders background.js answered getPort — port, connected state, AND the browse server auth token — to any sender that passed the type allowlist, including content scripts running in web-page context and, behind only the sender.id check, anything without extension-page provenance. The getToken sender.tab restriction covered getToken alone, and only after getPort had already handed out the token. Single decision point now: extension/sender-auth.js classifies each message type; the eight privileged types (getPort, setPort, getServerUrl, getToken, fetchRefs, command, sidebar-command, getTabState) require an own-extension-page sender (chrome-extension://<own id>/ URL, no sender.tab, own sender.id). Denied senders get { error: 'unauthorized' } and nothing else — never the token, never the port. Content-script flows (elementPicked, pickerCancelled, inspectResult, openSidePanel) are untouched, and the sidepanel/popup keep the getPort token field their connect path reads. The policy mirrors the v1.63 server-side model: AUTH_TOKEN is released only to the pinned extension Origin via POST /extension-token, so the extension must not re-leak it to contexts the server would never have trusted. browse/test/extension-sender-auth.test.ts drives the real background.js onMessage listener under a chrome stub with four sender shapes (own extension page, own content script, foreign extension id, missing sender.url) and pins that denied responses carry no token/port fields, that a denied setPort never persists, that a denied command never reaches the network, and that the inspector + tab-state flows keep working. The helper is loaded via importScripts in the classic service worker and require()-able from bun tests. Contributed by @punksterlabs (PR #1822; reimplemented against the v1.63 POST /extension-token pinned-origin model). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(update-check): fixture links gstack-egress-lib.sh — all 38 tests failed on main v1.63.0.0 made bin/gstack-update-check source bin/gstack-egress-lib.sh unconditionally, but the test fixture's GSTACK_DIR only linked gstack-config — every test died at the source line (0/38 pass on pristine main, verified). The suite-truncation bug hid it: the runner was killed by an earlier file's delayed process.exit before this file ran. Link the lib like the real install layout the script assumes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(browse): capture active-tab state before close() — last-tab auto-create raced the close event closeTab checked `tabId === this.activeTabId` AFTER awaiting page.close(), but the page 'close' event handler can fire during that await and reassign activeTabId — losing the race meant the last-tab auto-create never ran, leaving the manager with zero tabs. Capture wasActive before closing, and only reassign activeTabId when it no longer points at a live tab. Part of the test-integrity repairs unmasked by the suite-truncation fix. Contributed by @time-attack (PR #2230, browser-manager hunk). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(browse): delete the orphaned sidebar chat-queue suite; align sidebar-ux/tabs with the PTY-only sidebar browse/test/sidebar-integration.test.ts tested the /sidebar-command queue path ripped in v1.14 (34 references to removed endpoints — 11 permanent failures masked by suite truncation). sidebar-ux.test.ts carried 73 failures pinning the same dead surface (pickSidebarModel, ANALYSIS_WORDS); the trim keeps its 108 live tests, including the background.js token/allowlist gates. sidebar-tabs gets the two matching expectation updates. Closes #2420, #1980. Contributed by @time-attack (PR #2230, sidebar hunks; the security-sidepanel-dom deletion was NOT taken — that suite pins the live sidepanel DOM surface and passes). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(browse): align dual-listener and terminal-agent static guards with the current source Two static-grep guards pinned superseded source shapes and failed once the suite actually ran them: the tunnel dispatch gate is args-aware since the --out disk-write ban (canDispatchOverTunnel takes command AND args), and lazy PTY spawn routes through the maybeSpawnPty helper since v1.44. The updated assertions pin the current, stricter shapes (open() never spawns; the helper is the only spawnClaude caller). Contributed by @time-attack (PR #2230, dual-listener + terminal-agent hunks). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(test): remove all 8 delayed process.exit teardown bombs — the tier-1 gate can finally fail bun test runs every file in ONE process, so a 500ms setTimeout(process.exit(0)) armed in afterAll fired mid-way through a LATER file and killed the entire suite with exit 0 and no summary — only ~16 of 434 files ran, and every downstream failure was invisible (observed live throughout this wave's enumeration). Changes, all guarded by fault injection: - Replace every delayed-exit teardown with a time-boxed close of the file's own browser (8 files across browse/ and design/); stub the daemon /shutdown timer instead of letting its unconditional process.exit tear the runner down. - test/no-suicide-exit.test.ts: static tripwire — no *.test.ts may schedule a delayed process.exit again. - test/exit-propagation.test.ts + fixtures: fault injection with REAL bun output proves the truncation shape (exit 0, no summary) and that scripts/test-free-shards.ts now detects it: a shard exiting 0 WITHOUT bun's final summary line is treated as FAILED (exit code alone is not evidence of completion). - handoff: the three headed-mode integration tests are darwin-skipped with a pointer to the known macOS headed-launch breakage (#2242/#2554); they keep running on Linux CI. Un-skip in the browse-daemon wave. - feedback-roundtrip: repair the handler call sites unmasked by the fix — handlers take (command, args, session, bm); passing the manager where a session belongs broke all six tests. - user-slug-fallback: HOME isolation makes endpoint_hash deterministic. Fixes #2421, #2435. Contributed by @sneakygriff (PR #2172) with repairs from @time-attack (PR #2230 feedback-roundtrip hunks); supersedes PR #2252 by @whd4 (same defect, credited). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: include design/test/ in the free suite and the sharded runner design/test was absent from both the package.json test globs and TEST_ROOTS in scripts/test-free-shards.ts — its tests (including one of the teardown bombs removed in the previous commit) never ran in any CI or local free run, so design fixes could ship without their unit tests executing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(make-pdf): reject directories when resolving the browse binary access(X_OK) is true for directories (they carry the execute/traverse bit on POSIX and pass the Windows existence check too), so cwd-dependent resolution could pick the ~/.claude/skills/browse alias DIRECTORY as the browse binary. Every browse call then exited 4 with empty stderr, which make-pdf surfaced as "Chromium failed to launch" against a perfectly healthy Chromium (#2156). Guard isExecutable with statSync().isFile() so only regular files qualify. Contributed by @jwilk-hrep (PR #2538). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(make-pdf): write browse-bound temp files under the safe-dirs allowlist os.tmpdir() on macOS resolves to /var/folders/..., which fails browse's safe-dirs validation ([/tmp, cwd]) since the v1.6.0.0 --from-file tightening. Default PDF output (generate with no -o), the preview HTML, tmpFile() scratch files, and setup's smoke-test fixture/output all wrote there, so browse rejected the paths it was asked to read or write. Export PAYLOAD_TMP_DIR from browseClient (the existing TEMP_DIR convention: os.tmpdir() on Windows, /tmp elsewhere) and route orchestrator.ts and setup.ts temp files through it. Contributed by @lvthewah (PR #2505; the browse-binary directory guard from that PR landed separately via PR #2538). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(make-pdf): stop URLs swallowing smartypants placeholders A bare autolinked URL (<a href="X">X</a>) has zero whitespace between the URL text and its own closing tag. TAG_RE carves that </a> into a NUL-delimited SMARTPANTS_PRESERVED placeholder BEFORE the URL pass runs, and URL_RE's \S+ swallowed the adjacent placeholder into the URL match. The restore pass is single-shot, so the inner placeholder never restored: raw "SMARTPANTS_PRESERVED_N" text leaked into the rendered link, the </a> vanished, and link-blue styling bled into the rest of the document (#2084). Excluding the NUL sentinel (\u0000) from the URL character class stops the match from crossing into an already-carved zone. Contributed by @marshaung (PR #2280; PR #2339 by @BrendaB24 covered the same smartypants defect). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(make-pdf): no blank first page when content precedes the first H1 Two paths put invisible content ahead of the first H1 and cost users a blank page 1 (#1904): - A visually-empty preamble (leading <style> block, HTML comment) became its own .chapter. That section took the `.chapter:first-of-type { break-before: auto }` exception, so the first real chapter inherited `break-before: page` and started on page 2. Non-rendering preambles now fold into the first real chapter (markup preserved, no page break); real text preambles keep their own chapter. - Leading YAML frontmatter rendered as a literal paragraph of body text on its own first page (marked has no frontmatter awareness). It is now stripped before parsing; a `---` thematic break elsewhere is untouched. Contributed by @jbetala7 (PR #1913). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(browse): allow about:blank so a restarted daemon can initialise The daemon opens its own first tab on about:blank, so blocking it in validateNavigationUrl meant a restarted daemon could never recreate the blank tab it starts from — and `browse newtab about:blank`, which `make-pdf setup` runs as its Chromium smoke test, failed and surfaced as "Chromium failed to launch" against a healthy browser. Allow about:blank ONLY, never the about: scheme: about:blank has no origin, loads nothing and runs nothing, while about:config and friends are real surfaces. Exact href match (lower-cased, since the URL parser normalises the protocol but not the opaque part), so about:blankfoo stays blocked. Contributed by @jwilk-hrep (PR #2537). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(design): drop gpt-image-2 tool model that 400s under the gpt-4o orchestrator The Responses API rejects pairing a gpt-4o orchestrator with an image_generation tool spec'd as model: "gpt-image-2" (400 invalid_request_error), which took every design image call offline — generate, variants, iterate (both threaded and fresh paths), evolve, and /design-shotgun (#1771). gpt-image-2 is only valid under a gpt-5 orchestrator; with gpt-4o the tool must omit the model field (defaults to gpt-image-1). Remove the model field at all five call sites and add a static-grep tripwire test (design/test/image-gen-pairing.test.ts) that fails CI if any design/src module reintroduces the gpt-4o + gpt-image-2 pairing. Re-enabling gpt-image-2 later requires bumping the orchestrator off gpt-4o in the same diff, which the tripwire permits. Contributed by @Pablosinyores (PR #1773). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(design): variants AbortError message reports the real 240s timeout generateVariant arms its abort at 240_000 ms but the AbortError branch returned "Timeout (120s)" — off by 2x, so a user staring at the failure could not tell whether to bump the timeout, retry, or drop the call. Report the actual configured bound, and pin it with a test that forces the abort path (fast-forwarding only the 240_000 ms timer) and asserts the surfaced string matches. Contributed by @vryahn (PR #1774). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(memory-ingest): stop silently ingesting 0 pages — include gitignored staging, reconcile counts Pages stage into ~/.gstack/.staging-ingest-*/ inside a repo whose .gitignore is `*`, and gbrain import honours .gitignore — so it collected 0 files, imported nothing, and the ingest still reported "written: N" from the STAGED count while advancing state, meaning no future run ever retried. Three layers now: (1) pass --include-gitignored (root cause); (2) if the installed gbrain predates the flag, retry without it (subcommand --help is generic, so the attempt is the only probe) with an upgrade pointer; (3) reconcile gbrain's imported+unchanged accounting against the staged count and REFUSE to advance state on a shortfall, naming the gitignore collision. Fixes #2144, #2104. Contributed by @gawievanblerk (PR #2560) and @Charles-Grant (PR #2486).

Bind .commit to $c before the pipe. Reproduced live before the fix; regenerated autoplan/SKILL.md. Fixes #2018. Contributed by @kkroo (PR #2416; regenerated against the current template). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(session-update): un-wedge auto-upgrade — autostash over local patches, log the pull's real reason On a normal install the tracked files ARE locally patched (skill-prefix name rewrites, gbrain-refresh blocks), so the bare `git pull --ff-only` refused on every run and auto-upgrade froze forever — observed as 308 consecutive PULL_FAILED entries with the reason discarded by 2>/dev/null. Pull now runs --autostash (local patches ride over the update and pop back), stderr is captured into the log so a genuine failure names its cause, an autostash pop conflict recovers to a clean tree and re-renders the patches (gstack-patch-names + gbrain-refresh, both idempotent), and a successful pull re-renders them as a self-heal. Behavioral tests cover the wedge shape and the reason logging. Fixes #2566. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: raise the free-suite per-test timeout to 30s bun's 5s default is fine for a file run solo, but the monolithic free suite shares one process across 100+ files whose browser instances contend for launch slots — Playwright tests that pass in isolation time out mid-suite. 30s matches the ceiling the enumeration runs used; the sharded runner (test:free) is unaffected. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(question-log): parse native AskUserQuestion answers — every native answer logged as __unknown__ Current Claude Code returns AskUserQuestion results as an OBJECT map keyed by question text ({answers: {question: label}}); the hook only handled the legacy array shapes, so 86% of live records carried user_choice __unknown__ — and the bin then scored every one as followed_recommendation false, silently poisoning plan-tune metrics. Adds the object-map extraction (exact + whitespace-normalized + single-question pairing, multiSelect joins, annotations as free_text), strips the (Recommended) suffix from BOTH sides of the comparison, skips the computation entirely on extraction failure, and logs unrecognized shapes to hook-errors.log instead of embedding them in the record. Fixes #2336, #2206. Based on the working patch in #2336 by @yijisoo; suffix comparison fix contributed by @chuchu2781 (PR #2400). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(slug): canonicalize slash branches to dash form — review history stops splitting Branch-name sanitization disagreed across gstack (four incompatible rules), so reviews for the same slash-named branch landed in multiple files and the ship dashboard missed entries. gstack-slug now canonicalizes / to - in one place, and ship's review lookup routes through it; goldens regenerated against the current templates.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(slug): resolve the project root by marker walk-up — subdirectory sessions stop misfiling state gstack-slug derived everything from pwd, so a session in a subdirectory got the subdir's basename as its slug (or an outer monorepo's remote), misfiling reviews/decisions/learnings under a phantom project — and the per-pwd cache made the wrong answer permanent. The resolver now walks up from pwd: outermost STRONG marker wins (.git, package.json, pyproject.toml, Cargo.toml, Gemfile, go.mod, .project.yaml), weak content markers (README, LICENSE) catch non-code project folders, deploy artifacts are deliberately not markers, and GSTACK_PROJECT_SLUG remains the escape hatch. The cache self-heals on mismatch. Main-side invariants preserved on top: the unconditional [a-zA-Z0-9._-] re-sanitize before echo and slash→dash branch canonicalization. Fixes #1125.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(hooks): shared spawn-bin helper — all three AskUserQuestion hooks were inert on Windows The plan-tune hooks resolved bin scripts via new URL(import.meta.url).pathname (which doubles the drive letter on Windows: /C:/C:/...) and spawnSync'd extensionless bash scripts directly (unrunnable without a shell association) — so question logging, preferences, and the error fallback all silently no-op'd on Windows, and /plan-tune collected no data. A single spawn-bin.ts helper now owns bin resolution (fileURLToPath) and win32 bash routing for every hook, with static tripwires so a future hook can't reintroduce the raw pattern. This is the one Windows-spawn idiom for hook code. Fixes #2356. Contributed by @rafassousa (PR #2504; supersedes PR #2399 by @chuchu2781).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(windows): grant icacls ACEs by *SID, not unqualified username An unqualified username handed to icacls is ambiguous: on a machine whose hostname equals the username (a common Windows setup), it resolves to the MACHINE account instead of the user. Combined with /inheritance:r, that leaves ~/.gstack with a single ACE matching nobody — the process that just "secured" the directory locks itself out, and icacls still reports success. Both icacls sites in the repo (restrictFilePermissions and restrictDirectoryPermissions in browse/src/file-permissions.ts — the only icacls call sites; setup has none) now grant via icacls' literal-SID form `*<SID>`, resolved once per process from System32\whoami.exe (pinned to System32 because a bare `whoami` under a bash-flavoured PATH picks up the MSYS build, which rejects /user). Fallback when the SID can't be resolved is the domain-qualified `USERDOMAIN\username` name, which is unambiguous where the bare username was not. Windows-only regression tests assert the hardened directory stays usable by the calling process (readdir + write), which is exactly the check that a not-toThrow assertion sailed past before.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(windows): forward windowsHide through the bun-polyfill spawn shims windowsHide is the one spawn option where Node's default is the opposite of Bun's: Node shows the child's console window, Bun.spawn hides it. The polyfill's spawn and spawnSync shims dropped the option entirely, so the Node fallback path (dist/bun-polyfill.cjs) silently inverted the behavior on the one platform the shim exists to serve — every watchdog respawn of the terminal agent popped a visible bun.exe console window. Three sites fixed: - Bun.spawnSync shim: forwards windowsHide with Bun-matching default true - Bun.spawn shim: same (stdio:'ignore' silences output but does NOT suppress the console window on Windows) - spawnTerminalAgent in terminal-agent-control.ts: explicit windowsHide: true, so the Node fallback path behaves like Bun-native An explicit windowsHide: false is honored at both shims. Three focused tests pin the default-true, default-true-sync, and explicit-false paths by intercepting child_process in a subprocess; the test file's require path now uses forward slashes so it survives interpolation into a JS string literal on Windows. Supersedes PRs #2523, #2294 and #2290, which each covered a subset of these sites. Contributed by @jerrynicholsai (PR #2539); earlier fixes by @jwilk-hrep, @rroojrooj and @WimvandenHeijkant covered subsets of the same sites. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(watchdog): signal-0 liveness, tick-scaled respawn guard, windowsHide Three-bug chain behind the Windows terminal-agent leak (console window strobing every 60s, one orphaned agent per watchdog tick until the box ran out of committable memory): 1. isProcessAlive shelled out to `tasklist /FI "PID eq <pid>"` on Windows with a 3s timeout. A Bun.spawnSync that hits its timeout still RETURNS with partial stdout, so the `.includes()` PID match read a LIVE agent as dead — killAgentByRecord skipped the kill, the watchdog respawned around the survivor, and every orphan slowed the next tasklist enough to produce the next false negative. Now: `process.kill(pid, 0)` on every platform (Node and Bun both map signal 0 to an OpenProcess existence check on Windows), with EPERM counted as alive. No subprocess, no timeout, no console window. 2. The respawn circuit-breaker was mathematically unreachable — verified in this tree: RESPAWN_GUARD_WINDOW_MS was a fixed 60_000 against a 60_000ms default tick, and each tick pushes at most one respawn timestamp, so three pushes span ~120s and can never coexist inside a 60s window (eviction is strict `>`, and setInterval drift plus per-tick work always ages the prior entry past the boundary). The guard could not fire at the default tick rate and a steady one-per-tick leak ran unbounded. The window now scales with the tick: max(60_000, tick * (RESPAWN_GUARD_MAX + 2)), so "3 crashes in quick succession → stop" holds at any tick value. 3. The tasklist probe popped a visible console per tick (no windowsHide). Removing the shell-out kills that site; the agent-spawn site itself already passes windowsHide: true (landed with the bun-polyfill windowsHide commit — PR #2414's terminal-agent-control.ts hunk is reconciled there rather than duplicated). New browse/test/process-liveness-windows.test.ts pins all three: no subprocess from the probe, a static tripwire against reintroducing `tasklist` + `PID eq` liveness checks in src/, the spawnTerminalAgent windowsHide + stdio contract, and the window-derived-from-tick arithmetic. terminal-agent-watchdog.test.ts test 4 now pins the window/tick relationship instead of the fixed literal that let this ship. Also converts `new URL(import.meta.url).pathname` to `import.meta.path` across the static-grep tests it touches — the pathname form yields /C:/... on Windows and breaks path.resolve. Contributed by @SYKhayyat (PR #2414). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(terminal-agent): tie agent lifetime to its owning browse server PID The terminal agent is intentionally detached so it survives the short-lived CLI launcher, but its real owner is the persistent browse server. If that server crashed or was killed before running normal shutdown, the agent was adopted by PID 1 and lived forever (#2019). spawnTerminalAgent now requires an ownerPid and exports it to the agent as BROWSE_OWNER_PID; all three spawn sites pass the server PID (cli.ts cold-start, cli.ts supervisor respawn, server.ts watchdog). The agent polls the owner with signal 0 every 15s (GSTACK_TERMINAL_OWNER_WATCHDOG_MS to tune) on an unref'd timer and, when the owner disappears, exits through the SAME cleanup path as an intentional SIGTERM shutdown — now re-entrancy-guarded and also removing the terminal-internal-token file alongside the port file and agent record. Runtime test spawns a real agent tied to a throwaway owner process, kills the owner, and asserts the agent exits and its discovery files (terminal-agent-pid, terminal-port) are gone. Reconciled with the watchdog commit's spawnTerminalAgent contract test (process-liveness-windows.test.ts now passes ownerPid and pins the BROWSE_OWNER_PID env forwarding). Closes #2019. Contributed by @csarigoz (PR #2530). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(windows): give the bun-polyfill spawn shim a real `exited` promise Bun.spawn exposes `proc.exited` as a Promise resolving to the exit code. The Node fallback shim (dist/bun-polyfill.cjs) returned no such field, so every `await proc.exited` on the Windows path resolved instantly to undefined — the Windows cookie picker (cookie-import-browser.ts races proc.exited at three sites) read stdout before the child produced it and silent-failed; browser-skill-commands and terminal-agent hit the same class. The shim now: - drains stdout/stderr eagerly into capped in-memory buffers (Node's Readables are pull-based; without draining, a child writing past the OS pipe buffer blocks in write() and 'exit' never fires), replaying them as fresh single-shot Web ReadableStreams so reads work before or after awaiting exit; - caps the buffer at 16 MB (GSTACK_SPAWN_MAX_BUFFER to override), still draining past the cap so a runaway child can't wedge or OOM; - resolves `exited` with Bun-matching codes (exit code, 128+signal, 1 on spawn error) after both pipes finish, and resolves on 'error' too — Node fires 'error' without 'exit' when the binary is missing, which otherwise hangs the await forever. Six tests pin exit codes, the read-after-exit ordering, spawn-failure resolution, the buffer cap, and the large-output drain. Adapted to the current test file (require path goes through the requirePath variable from the windowsHide commit), and the 1 MB drain test's child now exits in the write callback — on modern Node a pipe write past the OS buffer is async and process.exit() straight after write() truncates at ~64 KB even with a live reader, which fails the test for reasons unrelated to the shim.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(setup): BROWSE_BIN carries the .exe suffix on Windows On Windows, `bun build --compile` emits browse.exe, but setup's BROWSE_BIN pointed at the suffixless path — so the post-build gate (`[ ! -x "$BROWSE_BIN" ]` → "browse binary missing") could never pass on Windows even after a fully successful build, while the build step itself reported success. Closes #2291. Applied the PR's override after the IS_WINDOWS detection, and also to the second BROWSE_BIN assignment the PR predates: the direct-Codex- install migration path re-derives BROWSE_BIN from the migrated dir and would otherwise drop the suffix again on Windows.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(setup): link lib/ beside bin/ at all five host-install sites bin/ scripts import shared modules via ../lib (gstack-learnings-log → lib/jsonl-store.ts is the reported case), so any runtime root that exposes bin/ without lib/ breaks 13 bin/ commands — learnings-log, decision-log, telemetry and friends fail with "Cannot find module .../lib/jsonl-store.ts" on every non-Claude install, silently from the skills' perspective. All five host-install sites now carry lib/ next to bin/, each through the existing _link_or_copy helper (never raw ln — the static invariant in test/setup-windows-fallback.test.ts enforces this): - .agents sidecar (create_agents_sidecar asset loop) - Codex runtime root (create_codex_runtime_root) - Factory runtime root (create_factory_runtime_root) - OpenCode runtime root (create_opencode_runtime_root) - Kiro install block New test/setup-runtime-lib-command.test.ts executes the real setup shell for each root in a sandbox (both the symlink branch and the Windows copy branch of _link_or_copy) and runs gstack-learnings-log end-to-end from the installed root, asserting the learning lands in ~/.gstack/projects/<slug>/learnings.jsonl — plus a negative control proving a bin-without-lib root fails exactly the way the bug report did. gen-skill-docs.test.ts's setup-validation block pins the lib link at every site.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ci(windows): curate the fix-wave regression tests into the windows-latest run The windows-free-tests curated set is derived (POSIX-fragility regex scan + explicit deny list), and two of this wave's Windows regression files were auto-excluded on false-positive pattern hits: - browse/test/file-permissions.test.ts tripped the POSIX-mode-bitmask pattern, but every `mode & 0o777` assertion is platform-guarded — and the file carries the win32-only icacls-by-SID regression tests, which can only ever execute on windows-latest. - browse/test/terminal-agent-owner-watchdog.test.ts tripped the spawn(['bun','run',...]) pattern whose reason is the Playwright-bound browse server; it actually spawns terminal-agent.ts (fs/path/crypto + local helpers only, no Playwright at module scope), and the owner-PID orphan leak it pins was reported on Windows (#2019). Adds a KNOWN_WINDOWS_SAFE force-include list (mirror of KNOWN_WINDOWS_INCOMPATIBLE, each entry carrying its false-positive rationale) consulted before the pattern scan, and makes the owner-watchdog test's throwaway owner process Windows-portable (process.execPath instead of `sleep`, which a bare runner may not have). The wave's other new files need no wiring: process-liveness-windows and the bun-polyfill windowsHide/exited tests pass curation automatically; setup-runtime-lib-command self-skips on win32 by design (its Windows branch is exercised by simulating IS_WINDOWS=1 under bash), so force-including it would add a permanently-skipped file.

Fixes #2091, #2370. Union of both community fixes, compared at the diff level: - PR #2372: all 11 source sites with a suffix after the X-run — codex SKILL.md.tmpl (5), claude SKILL.md.tmpl (3), bin/gstack-developer-profile (2, suffix folded into the prefix: .json.tmp.XXXXXX), and the office-hours codex pass in scripts/resolvers/review.ts (1). - PR #2103: the second half of #2091 — bin/gstack-paths now strips the trailing slash from TMP_ROOT at the source (macOS $TMPDIR ends in `/`), plus runtime tests pinning that normalization. New repo-wide tripwire in test/regression-issue2091-bsd-mktemp.test.ts: every .tmpl, every SKILL.md, and every scripts/resolvers/*.ts is swept — no mktemp template may carry a suffix after the X-run, with a self-test so the detector can't be quietly blinded.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(codex,review,ship): scope codex review with an explicit --base flag, never prompt text `codex review` takes its scope ONLY from --base/--commit/--uncommitted. The positional [PROMPT] is mutually exclusive with all three, and a prompt-only `codex review "<text>"` silently falls back to the uncommitted working-tree scope (verified on 0.144.1: it runs `git status --short; git diff` and reviews that) — so the previous prompt-based scoping produced a confidently-worded review of the WRONG changes and read "no changes" on a clean tree. Every diff pass now invokes `codex review --base <base>` with no prompt argument: /codex Step 2A default path, the /review structured pass, and the /ship adversarial-section pass (all via scripts/resolvers/review.ts). Custom review instructions keep their own `codex exec` path (the CLI rejects prompt + scope flag together), with the filesystem boundary preserved there. Two new Error Handling entries teach the failure shapes: the argv-parse error, and the "review says no changes on a branch full of changes" symptom. Tests updated to pin the new invariant instead of banning the fix: the old assertions required the diff range in prompt text and banned the `--base <base> -c '...'` substring, which the correct scoped form contains. Also deletes test/fixtures/golden-ship-claude.md — a 2,565-line orphaned fixture referenced by zero tests (the live goldens are in test/fixtures/golden/, compared by test/host-config.test.ts); the factory golden is refreshed from the regenerated output.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(review,ship): run the codex diff passes under the timeout wrapper (#1036) The `_gstack_codex_timeout_wrapper` added in #1056 was wired into codex/SKILL.md but never into the /review and /ship diff passes, which kept running under a bare 5-minute Bash gate. An unwrapped stall returns no exit code and no output, which downstream reads as "Codex reviewed and found nothing" — a truncated pass silently became a clean bill. Measured on codex-cli 0.145.0: a pass was killed at 287s of a 300s budget mid-tool-call, and the same prompt completed in 336s. Both passes in scripts/resolvers/review.ts (adversarial `codex exec` and the structured `codex review --base` pass) now re-source gstack-codex-probe and run under `_gstack_codex_timeout_wrapper 540`, with the Bash tool gate raised to 600000 ms so the wrapper fires FIRST and a stall surfaces as a diagnosable exit 124. The timeout guidance now says a timed-out pass is MISSING COVERAGE, not a clean result, and points at the run's rollout log under ~/.codex/sessions/ for partial output. The stale "timeout doesn't exist on macOS" claim is gone — the wrapper resolves gtimeout, then timeout, then runs unwrapped, so it is safe without coreutils. Static guards in test/codex-hardening.test.ts pin all three sites (resolver, review/SKILL.md, ship/sections/adversarial.md): both calls wrapped, wrapper budget strictly under the Bash gate, and no reappearance of the macOS claim that steered these call sites away from the wrapper in the first place. The Claude-output path guard in test/gen-skill-docs.test.ts now scrubs ~/.codex/sessions/ (a user-facing Codex CLI path, same class as the ~/.codex/logs/ exemption) before banning Codex host paths.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(codex): sandbox the review path, fail the gate closed, order timeouts wrapper-first Closes #2496, #2524, #2477 — three defects in the class "a guard that reports success while doing nothing", all in codex/SKILL.md.tmpl: (a) Review sandbox. The default `codex review` path was the only codex call with no sandbox override, inheriting ~/.codex/config.toml's default — write access on a trusted project — while Important Rules claimed read-only. Top-level `codex review` has no -s/--sandbox flag (verified on 0.147.0), so the invocation now pins `-c 'sandbox_mode="read-only"'`, the same form the consult-resume path already uses. (b) Fail-closed verdict gate. The old rule ("no [P1] found → PASS") could not fail on the default path: native `codex review` output carries no bracketed tags, and a non-zero exit, expired auth, timeout, or empty result also contains no [P1] — all read as PASS. The gate is now an ordered, fail-closed check: non-zero exit → FAIL; empty output → FAIL; [P0]/[P1] (bracketed or codex's native labels) → FAIL with count; NO severity tags at all → FAIL requiring a human read; PASS is only reachable through the explicit tagged-advisory-only branch. [P0] is recognized as blocking, and the review-log findings count includes it. (c) Bash gate above the wrapper. Step 2A instructed `timeout: 300000` under a 330s wrapper, and Challenge's 300s gate sat under a 600s wrapper — the harness killed the call before the wrapper could emit its diagnosable exit-124 message. Every Bash gate now sits strictly ABOVE its wrapper: 360000 over the 330s review wrapper, 660000 over the 600s challenge/consult wrappers, with the ordering rationale stated at each site. Also from #2477/#2524: a new Error Handling entry for the model-entitlement 400 ("The '<model>' model is not supported...") pointing at the `model =` pin and `[notice.model_migrations]` in ~/.codex/config.toml and saying exactly which override to retry with (-m for exec-based modes, `-c model="..."` for review mode, which rejects -m); the Model & Reasoning section no longer documents `-m` for `/codex review`. Static assertions in test/codex-hardening.test.ts pin (a)-(c) across both the .tmpl and the generated SKILL.md: every scoped review invocation carries sandbox_mode="read-only" and never -s; the default-PASS sentence is banned and the fail-closed branches are present; and per-section, every Bash `timeout: N` is strictly greater than every wrapper budget, with 2A/2B/2C all required to be inspected.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(retro,ship): count tracked files for the test-file metric, not the working tree The test-file count ran find over the working tree, sweeping untracked build output — a Rails repo reported 623 test files when git tracks 17 (37x), skewing retro narratives and ship dashboards. Count via git ls-files instead; includes the one-line Python-glob widening so non-JS repos stop undercounting. Fixes #2307, #1999. Contributed by @joshRpowell (PR #2308). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(land-and-deploy,gen): auto-merge diagnosis + CRLF-stable generation Two small hardenings: land-and-deploy Step 4 no longer misdiagnoses a failed `gh pr merge --auto` as a permissions problem when the real cause is the merge-method mismatch the command names; and gen-skill-docs normalizes CRLF at the template entry point so Windows checkouts with autocrlf produce byte-identical generated output to CI instead of silently skipping the \n-anchored transforms.

Cut at the first ": " instead (s/^[^:]*: *//). Resolver only; the generated land-and-deploy/SKILL.md regenerates from this source in the docs lane. Contributed by @briascoi (PRs #2555/#2493).

Now: - provider-created remotes follow `gh config get git_protocol` / `glab config get git_protocol` (HTTPS when unset — the gh default) - explicit/existing/manual remotes keep their given protocol; unknown URL forms (local bare paths, file://, self-hosted) pass through - new --push-protocol auto|https|ssh flag overrides the inference - the unreachable-remote error names the actual protocol and points at --push-protocol instead of assuming a missing SSH key Closes #1348.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(browse): skip the .gitignore append when git already ignores .gstack/ ensureStateDir appended ".gstack/" to a tracked .gitignore even when git already ignored the directory via global excludes, .git/info/exclude, or a parent .gitignore — dirtying the working tree on every daemon start. Run `git check-ignore -q -- .gstack/` first and return early when git says it's covered; git-missing/not-a-repo/timeout all fall through to the existing text-check append (the safe default).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(browse): guard browser.process() in resolveDisconnectCause `.process()` only exists on browsers Playwright launched itself; a browser from connectOverCDP() (or a test stub) has no such method, so the blind call threw "browser?.process is not a function" inside the disconnect handler and took down the daemon. Type-check the method before calling it and treat the no-method case as no process handle. Closes #2085. Contributed by @elan2002 (PR #2434). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(lib): narrow the override injection denylist to instruction-shaped phrases The /override[:\s]/i pattern flagged any prose containing "override " or "override:" — CLI flags (--port-override -1), tfvars notes, and plain "you can override the default region" all tripped the injection guard. Require an instruction-shaped continuation: "override (all)? previous | prior | above | the rules/instructions/system prompt". Genuine attempts like "Override: ignore all previous instructions" still block via the ignore-previous pattern. Closes #2401, #1934.

Reject a separator-free 14-digit span whose fields parse as a plausible date-time; real numbers carry a + or spacing, so phone coverage is unchanged. Contributed by @abkrim (PR #2428).

Pin both get/set validators to LC_ALL=C, with a source-level tripwire test since macOS BSD grep doesn't reproduce the bug. Closes #2494. Contributed by @Math1987 (PR #2506). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(resolvers): stop env-var hosts from doubling $HOME in the binary fallback path The browse/design/make-pdf setup resolvers built the fallback binary path as "$HOME" + dir.replace(/^~/, ''), which is only correct for ~-rooted dirs. Env-var hosts carry an absolute $GSTACK_* dir, so the generated fallback became $HOME$GSTACK_.../browse — a path that never exists. New toShellPath() in scripts/resolvers/types.ts expands ~ to $HOME and passes absolute env-var dirs through untouched; all five call sites route through it. Claude-host generated output is byte-identical, so no SKILL.md regeneration is needed here. Closes #2055. Contributed by @simjak (PR #2056). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(settings-hook): respect CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR when resolving settings.json gstack-settings-hook hardcoded $HOME/.claude/settings.json, so users running Claude Code with a relocated CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR had hooks written to a config file Claude never reads.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(browse): dispatch a change event after fill for change-only validators Playwright's Locator.fill() dispatches `input` but never `change`, so frameworks that validate on change (AngularJS ng-change, debounced strength/match checks) never saw the filled value — correct in the DOM, failing the framework's own validation. `browse fill` now dispatches `change` after the fill.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(pr-title): stop duplicating the version prefix on bare-version titles A title that was nothing but a version ("v1.2.3" — the form ship uses for version-only bumps) matched neither the "v<NEW_VERSION> " literal case nor the trailing-space strip regex, fell through to the prepend path, and came out as "v1.2.3.4 v1.2.3" — which pr-title-sync.yml then wrote back via gh pr edit. Handle the bare form in both the no-change case and the prefix-strip regex, and emit a bare new version when nothing follows. Closes #1886. Contributed by @jbetala7 (PR #1887). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(build): escape literal braces in the bun:sqlite stub regex Perl >= 5.26 treats an unescaped literal `{` in a pattern as fatal ("Unescaped left brace in regex is illegal"), so build-node-server.sh died at the bun:sqlite stub substitution on modern perl.

New read_config_value() strips only the "key:" prefix and trailing whitespace (cut-style parse), and set appends the same newline-stripped value the in-place edit path uses. Closes #1782. Contributed by @jbetala7 (PR #1783). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(browse): recover a late-healthy detached daemon instead of a false "Server failed to start" startServer spawns the daemon detached + unref'd, then polls health for a fixed budget. On a loaded machine the budget can elapse in the gap between the loop's last tick and the daemon becoming ready — the CLI reported "Server failed to start within Ns" while the very next `browse status` showed a healthy server. Add a final readState()+isServerHealthy() re-check before the timeout throw, and make the budget env-overridable via BROWSE_START_TIMEOUT (BROWSE_* tunable convention). Structural + behavioral tests pin both invariants. Closes #1846. Contributed by @harjothkhara (PR #1847). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(browse): daemon resilience on loaded machines — Bun conn errors, stop/restart flush, startup + git-root budgets Four load-sensitivity fixes in the daemon lifecycle: - sendCommand only recognized Node's ECONNREFUSED/ECONNRESET; the compiled CLI runs on Bun, which reports 'ConnectionRefused'/'ConnectionClosed' ("Unable to connect..."), so daemon crashes leaked the raw error and exited 1 instead of entering the busy-check/restart path. Match both. - stop/restart called shutdown() inline, which exits before the HTTP response flushes — the CLI saw a dropped socket (and would now crash-retry a fresh daemon just to stop it). Defer shutdown ~100ms so the 200 lands first. - Non-CI POSIX startup budget raised 8s -> 15s (cold C…
…ow provably fires (net −24,943 lines) (garrytan#2572) * fix(ci): skill-docs freshness gate covers all 10 hosts and can actually fail The Codex/Factory gates ran 'git diff --exit-code -- .agents/' / '-- .factory/', but both paths are gitignored (.gitignore:16-17) — git diff on ignored untracked paths is always empty, so those two gates were structurally incapable of failing and 7 of 10 hosts had no gate at all. New shape: one 'gen:skill-docs --host all' pass (the generator hard-fails on any per-host error, gating all 10 hosts on generates-cleanly), byte-freshness via git diff for tracked output, plus a porcelain check that fails on untracked generated strays (git diff can't see brand-new files). The gitignored-hosts byte-freshness limitation is documented in the workflow comment. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(test): exorcise the sidebar-agent ghost from the test suite browse/src/sidebar-agent.ts was deleted in the v1.14 sidebar refactor, but the test suite kept testing it for 48 versions. Nothing noticed because the free suite runs in no CI job and Bun-era module-load errors were suppressed in the Windows shard runner via an exclusion pattern whose own comment documented the breakage ('broken on every platform since v1.14 ... exit 0'). - Delete sidebar-security.test.ts + security-source-contracts.test.ts: crashed at module load (unguarded readFileSync of the deleted file); per-assertion triage confirmed every SERVER_SRC pin targeted the deleted chat prompt builder (zero hits in today's server.ts) — nothing to port. - Delete sidebar-integration.test.ts: 11 of 13 tests exercised deleted endpoints (/sidebar-command queue, /sidebar-agent/event, chat buffer); the 2 passing tests pinned only the blanket auth gate, covered by server-auth.test.ts + dual-listener.test.ts. - Delete test/skill-e2e-sidebar.test.ts: E2E for the deleted queue flow. - sidebar-ux.test.ts 1,669 -> 830 lines: 20 dead-chat describes + 15 dead tests removed (incl. 10 vacuous passes asserting on empty indexOf slices); 2 stale pins on LIVE features fixed (content.js typed-catch CSSOM fallback, arrow-hint window widened). 95 pass / 0 fail. - sidebar-tabs.test.ts: both failures were stale pins, not regressions — forceRestart's deliberate ws.close(4001) and the terminal-agent spawn that moved into spawnTerminalAgent() (identity-based kill refactor). 28 pass. - touchfiles.ts: drop the three sidebar E2E entries from BOTH maps (E2E_TOUCHFILES + E2E_TIERS) — they pointed diff-selection at the deleted file, so those tests were unreachable by any diff. - test-free-shards.ts: remove the now-dead sidebar-agent exclusion pattern. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(ci): run the free test suite in CI (it ran nowhere) The full free suite (bun test: browse/test/ + test/ + make-pdf/test/) had no CI job on any Linux/macOS runner — only Windows curated shards, paid evals, and doc-freshness gates existed. That's how two module-load-crashing test files survived 48 versions. Same cached Dockerfile.ci image and container wiring as evals.yml (deps restore, build, Chromium verify). Includes a module-load-error guard: older Bun reported test-file import crashes with exit 0 on macOS/Linux, so the job also fails on any nonzero 'N errors' count in the summary — future crash-class regressions can't hide from the exact job built to catch them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(test): validate touchfile dependency paths exist on disk New guard in touchfiles.test.ts: every non-glob dep path must exist, and every glob's anchor directory must exist. This is the axis the 181-key two-map sync discipline never covered — an entry can point at a long-deleted file and diff-based selection then silently never triggers those tests (the sidebar trio sat rotted for 48 versions). First run immediately caught a fourth rotted entry: 'spec authored quality' referenced test/fixtures/spec/** (directory does not exist) and selected for a judge test that exists nowhere in the repo. Removed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(security): remove deleted /sidebar-chat endpoint from tunnel allowlist TUNNEL_PATHS is the audited tunnel attack surface — its own comment says every addition widens it. '/sidebar-chat' stayed in the set after the endpoint was deleted with the chat-queue path, meaning any future route matching that path would have been silently tunnel-exposed. The set is now exactly the pair ceremony (/connect) and the scoped command endpoint (/command), and the dual-listener closed-set pin enforces that. Also repairs a pre-existing red pin in dual-listener.test.ts: v1.63.0.0 made the tunnel allowlist args-aware (canDispatchOverTunnel gained a second param) without updating the test — red on main since then, invisible because the free suite had no CI job. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(security): delete chain's shadow dispatcher that skipped every security gate meta-commands.ts carried a 'CLI mode' fallback that re-implemented command routing without the server pipeline's gates: no scope check, no domain check, no tab ownership, no rate limit, no hidden-element stripping, no scoped-token enveloping — and it called handleReadCommand without a BrowserManager, which also skipped the JS-origin cookie-exfiltration assertion. It was unreachable in production (server.ts always passes executeCommand) and one boolean away from being live. chain now hard-errors without a server context. handleReadCommand's bm param is required and assertJsOriginAllowed runs unconditionally. The chain tests that exercised the deleted fallback now route through a server-shaped executeCommand adapter (real handlers + trust wrapping + {status,result} envelope), so their behavioral coverage — sequencing, trust markers, pipe format, aliases, error reporting — survives on the production-shaped path. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(extension): delete the dead chat-queue client surface The sidebar-command handler in background.js POSTed to a server endpoint that no longer exists (deleted with the chat queue) — ~35 lines of fully-wired dead code including error handling for the permanent 404, plus its allowlist entry. No sender in the extension ever emitted the message type. chatEnabled leaves the /health contract (server hardcoded false, background.js re-derived it, nothing consumed it — the chat input element it guarded is gone from sidepanel.html). BROWSE_SIDEBAR_CHAT env flag had zero readers. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(security): delete dead exports the ripped chat path left behind Three-way split by importer class: (a) Zero importers, deleted: the whole attack-attempt logging cluster in security.ts (logAttempt, AttemptRecord, salted hashPayload + device-salt, attempts.jsonl rotation, telemetry spawn plumbing incl. buildTelemetrySpawnCommand/resolveBashBinary — the LIVE attempts.jsonl writer is tunnel-denial-log.ts with its own rotation); the decision-file handshake (writeDecision/readDecision/clearDecision/excerptForReview — written for sidebar-agent's poll loop, which no longer exists); sidebar-utils.ts (whole module — its sanitizeExtensionUrl 'sanitized before embedding in a prompt' for the deleted prompt builder); 8 dead server.ts imports (sanitizeExtensionUrl, generateCanary, injectCanary, writeDecision, rotateRoot, serializeRegistry, restoreRegistry, clearAgentRecord); buildPtyClearCookie + buildSseClearCookie; WEBDRIVER_MASK_SCRIPT (orphaned by the D7 stealth narrowing — applyStealth never used it). (b) Dead-pin tests edited with their exports: the 'still exported' pin in stealth-layer-c, the string-content describe in stealth-webdriver (its live applyStealth behavioral coverage untouched), the clear-cookie assertions, security-review-flow.test.ts deleted whole (all 4 describes exercised the dead decision mechanism, incl. a 'simulated sidebar-agent poll loop'). (c) KEPT deliberately: leaseCount (live behavioral coverage), extractPtyCookie + validatePtySessionToken (extractPtyCookie is adopted by the terminal-agent cookie-parse unification later in this wave), resetSessionMarker + clearContentFilters (test-support API for the live content-security layer). Also fixes two pre-existing red pins found while here, invisible until the free suite got a CI job: the v1.44 spawnClaude->maybeSpawnPty rename in terminal-agent.test.ts, and a cross-file test-isolation bug where content-security.test.ts's clearContentFilters() wiped the auto-registered url-blocklist filter for every later file in the same bun process (security-integration.test.ts failed on co-run; afterAll now restores it). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(security): delete the dead ML layers — transcript classifier and DeBERTa ensemble The L4b Haiku transcript classifier and the opt-in DeBERTa ensemble (GSTACK_SECURITY_ENSEMBLE=deberta, a documented 721MB download) had ZERO production callers since the chat-path agent that invoked them was ripped. The only live ML path is scanPageContent (testsavant) inside the security sidecar subprocess. Deleted by import graph: - security-classifier.ts 614 -> 265 lines: HAIKU_MODEL, checkTranscript, shouldRunTranscriptCheck, loadDeberta, scanPageContentDeberta, ToolCallInput, all DEBERTA_* consts + load state. Header now states the live truth (imported only by security-sidecar-entry.ts). downloadFile kept, name intact — it is an enumerated egress sink (HF model download). - security-bunnative.ts + test: a research skeleton self-described as 'NOT a production replacement', shipped into src/ with zero importers. - security-bench-ensemble{,-live}.test.ts + the Haiku response fixture: a paid live-model benchmark for a layer that could not fire. The security-classifier-tdz test's only case exercised checkTranscript — gone. - security.ts: layer-model header rewritten to the live architecture; StatusDetail.layers -> {testsavant, canary}; getStatus() no longer requires the impossible transcript==='ok' for 'protected' (old on-disk session state with a transcript key is tolerated on read, never re-emitted). - security-sidecar-entry.ts needed zero changes: it serializes getClassifierStatus() verbatim and no consumer read .transcript (verified in sidecar-client + server.ts). - BROWSER.md security section matches reality (ensemble knob gone, 112MB not 22MB, sidecar hosting documented). combineVerdict/THRESHOLDS retained as the pure, tested combiner of record — comments now flag transcript/deberta votes as producer-less. Net: 26 pass in security.test.ts incl. a NEW regression test for stale- transcript disk tolerance; egress-receipt tripwire green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: scrub the sidebar-agent ghost from comments and CLAUDE.md 20+ comments across 10 files still described the deleted sidebar-agent.ts as a live process — including load-bearing architecture claims ('IMPORTED ONLY BY sidebar-agent.ts', 'sidebar-agent fills this in on first prompt-injection load', 'kill sidebar-agent' in shutdown docs) and ~60 lines of tombstone blocks in server.ts enumerating deleted identifiers by name (a false grep surface: searching processAgentEvent hit server.ts and looked live). CLAUDE.md's security-stack section now documents the LIVE architecture: L1-L3 content filters + testsavant via the security sidecar subprocess; the L4b/ensemble rows, the GSTACK_SECURITY_ENSEMBLE knob, and the 721MB DeBERTa download are gone (deleted as dead code this wave) with an explicit do-not-re-document note; attempts.jsonl is correctly attributed to tunnel-denial-log.ts; the no-live-writer status of classifierStatus is stated. Comments that survive now describe what IS, not what WAS: the promotion gate in domain-skills.ts explains why classifier_score>0 is load-bearing given no L4 load-time scan exists; file-permissions.ts names real sensitive files. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gen): delete the codex-helpers shadow module gen-skill-docs.ts imported externalSkillName (unaliased) from resolvers/codex-helpers.ts at line 21 and then re-declared the same function locally — the import was silently shadowed, and the imported copy was the STALE one (it lacked the frontmatterName param the local copy grew). Three more functions were byte-identical duplicates, imported only under _-prefixed aliases to keep the module 'referenced', and transformFrontmatter was a superseded hardcoded-Codex variant. Nothing else imported the module. Also drops three dead top-of-file imports (COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS, SNAPSHOT_FLAGS — which pulled the whole browse/src module graph into every generator run for nothing — and an unused review-resolver trio). Proof: bun run gen:skill-docs exits 0 with a byte-identical tree (zero-diff regen); gen-skill-docs.test.ts 405/405 green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(server): delete ServerConfig.idleTimeoutMs + chromiumProfile — documented, never read Both fields carried JSDoc asserting embedder behavior that did not exist: the idle check reads the module-level IDLE_TIMEOUT_MS env constant, and both resolveChromiumProfile() call sites pass no argument. Worse than absent — an embedder passing idleTimeoutMs: 5000 silently got 30 minutes. Wiring them honestly is impossible today: the idle timer, activity state, and shutdown target are module-global, so a per-factory value would lie for any process running more than one handler. Deleted instead, with a ServerConfig note pointing at the deferred singleton/route-table refactor where real support belongs. BROWSE_IDLE_TIMEOUT and CHROMIUM_PROFILE env remain the honest knobs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(security): wire appendSecureFile at the four real log-append sites file-permissions.ts carries a 24-line rationale for why POSIX mode bits are insufficient on Windows and implements appendSecureFile (0600 at create, Windows ACL on first write only) — but its single caller was the dead logAttempt, while the four REAL page-content log writers (console/network/ dialog logs in server.ts, the command audit log) used raw fs.appendFileSync with no mode. Page-content-derived logs now get owner-only permissions from birth on every platform. Verified before wiring: mode applies atomically at create via appendFileSync {mode}, and the ACL pass runs only on first write — no per-append subprocess cost on the hot console-log path. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(stealth): handoff() uses the shared profile resolution + lock cleanup The headless-to-headed handoff path hardcoded ~/.gstack/chromium-profile, silently ignoring $CHROMIUM_PROFILE and $GSTACK_HOME (gbrowser's gbd sets per-workspace profiles), and skipped cleanSingletonLocks() — so a handoff into a profile with a stale SingletonLock could hang where launchHeaded() would have recovered. This was the third live drift between the three Chromium launch paths; the first two are documented in comments as shipped stealth regressions. Minimal targeted fix — the full buildLaunchConfig() extraction stays in the deferred queue. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gen): resolver registry describes the template language again Seven registered {{PLACEHOLDER}}s had zero uses in any .tmpl (checked in both bare and :arg forms): REDACT_TAXONOMY_TABLE, TEST_COVERAGE_AUDIT_REVIEW, MODEL_OVERLAY, QUESTION_PREFERENCE_CHECK, QUESTION_LOG, INLINE_TUNE_FEEDBACK, MAKE_PDF_SETUP. The last two of those families are invoked programmatically by preamble.ts (functions kept, registry entries dropped); the question-tuning trio and the review coverage-audit wrapper were documented by their own module as existing 'for unit testing' that no test performed — deleted, along with generateRedactTaxonomyTable + its EXAMPLE/TIER_BLURB constants (its '/cso renders the full table' comment was itself stale) and its test describe. Also deletes the gated-resolver mechanism (ResolverEntry/appliesTo/ unwrapResolver + test/resolver-entry.test.ts): fully built, fully tested, used by zero of the 65 registry entries — the generator loop simplifies to a direct function call. CLAUDE.md's redact-doc line stops advertising the dead token. Proof: zero-diff regen (0 SKILL.md changed); gen-skill-docs + skill-validation 737 tests green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gen): wire boundaryInstruction from host config; drop three no-op binDir ternaries hosts/codex.ts declared boundaryInstruction and nothing read it — review.ts kept its own byte-identical CODEX_BOUNDARY literal (verified equal + trailing escaped newlines). The resolver now reads the config, so the boundary has one owner. (autoplan's template carries deliberately generic variants, enforced by gen-skill-docs.test.ts:1358 — untouched by design.) The 'ctx.host === codex ? $GSTACK_BIN : ctx.paths.binDir' ternary appeared in three resolvers and could never change the result: resolvers/types.ts already sets binDir to $GSTACK_BIN for every usesEnvVars host including codex. Proof: zero-diff regen for claude AND codex hosts; gen-skill-docs + host-config suites green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(test-infra): judge uses resolveClaudeBinary; eval:watch reads the real partials dir judgePtyState spawned the bare string 'claude' three definitions below the resolveClaudeBinary() helper this same file exports — broken under hermetic PATHs where every other launch in the file resolves correctly. eval:watch read _partial-e2e.json from the legacy global ~/.gstack-dev/evals/ while EvalCollector writes it into the per-project eval dir (or GSTACK_EVAL_DIR) — so the dashboard's completed-tests panel was empty whenever slug detection succeeded, i.e. the normal case. The heartbeat and per-run progress logs stay global by design (session-runner.ts: 'heartbeat stays global'). The three eval-CLI docstrings stop claiming the legacy dir is the primary location. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(test): delete the superseded SDK ship-idempotency suite and three orphaned fixtures test/skill-e2e-ship-idempotency.test.ts's own header documented that the monolith's SDK-harness version tests a synthetic prompt while it exercises the real /ship skill — the author knew the old suite was superseded and left both running, two paid LLM runs for one behavior. The weaker copy is gone; its 'ship-idempotency' diff-selection key goes with it (the dedicated file is periodic-tier, which always runs under EVALS_ALL — the key had no remaining consumer). Fixture rot: test/fixtures/golden-ship-claude.md was a 128KB zero-reader orphan that had drifted 46KB from its live successor (test/fixtures/golden/claude-ship-SKILL.md) while looking authoritative; parity-baseline-v1.46.0.0.json and v1.53.0.0.json had zero readers (three tests pin three OTHER baseline versions — consolidation is queued, deletion of the unreferenced two is free). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(bin): delete zero-caller scripts; make host-config-export's docstring honest - bin/gstack-open-url (14 lines): announced in a CHANGELOG entry, wired into nothing, ever. bin/gstack-platform-detect (27 lines): zero callers, and its hand-rolled host list was already stale (SLATE_HOST.md cites it as a problem). Note: the deprecated gstack-brain-consumer/reader pair the audit flagged was already deleted upstream in v1.63 with a stay-deleted tripwire. - scripts/task-emission-schema.ts (61 lines): a typed schema module nothing imported; the tasks-section comment now documents the JSONL fields inline. - scripts/host-config-export.ts claimed to be the 'shell bridge for the bash setup script' — setup never calls it (its hand-rolled host lists drifting is a known follow-up). Docstring now states what it IS: a standalone, test-pinned query CLI not yet wired into setup. Its validateValue + CLI_REGEX/PATH_REGEX internals were dead (defined for a guarantee the header claimed but nothing enforced). - KEPT deliberately: scripts/preflight-agent-sdk.ts — a documented manual diagnostic (CONTRIBUTING.md + USING_GBRAIN_WITH_GSTACK.md reference it). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(server): one lone-surrogate sanitizer, one sanitizeReplacer, one startTunnel Three copies of the surrogate sanitizer existed with two algorithms (sanitize.ts regex vs a hand-rolled charCodeAt walk in server.ts — verified byte-identical across 11 edge cases before converging) plus two identical sanitizeReplacer definitions each wrapping a different copy. sanitize.ts is now the single source of truth; the runs-INSIDE-JSON.stringify egress invariant is unchanged at every call site and its pin tests were adapted to the new import shape without losing intent. The ngrok tunnel-start sequence existed three times in server.ts — the /tunnel/start route and the BROWSE_TUNNEL=1 autostart were line-for-line equivalent (a comment admitted 'Same cleanup as /tunnel/start's error path'). One startTunnel() now owns the ephemeral loopback bind, the pre-send egress receipt, the state-file RMW via tmpStatePath(), and the ordered error-path cleanup; callers keep their distinct response surfaces. The BROWSE_TUNNEL_LOCAL_ONLY test path shares nothing (no ngrok, different state field) and deliberately stays separate. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(security): one session-cookie registry implementation, two instances pty-session-cookie.ts and sse-session-cookie.ts were byte-identical modulo the cookie name — mint/validate/parse/prune/TTL, the exact code a security fix would have to land in twice (and a third hand-rolled cookie parse in terminal-agent.ts had already diverged; unified next commit). createSessionCookieStore() owns the implementation; both modules become thin instantiations keeping every exported name, their distinct threat-model docstrings, and separate token spaces (an SSE-read cookie must never grant PTY access). pty-session-lease.ts deliberately stays out — different contract (sessionId/secret split, refresh, env TTL). The factory imports nothing from token-registry (cookie-picker-auth-isolation invariant, still pinned by sse-session-cookie.test.ts). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(security): terminal-agent uses the shared PTY cookie parser The /ws upgrade's cookie fallback hand-parsed the Cookie header inline — the fourth copy of the session-cookie parse, and the one that had already diverged from the others. Parsing now goes through extractPtyCookie; validation deliberately stays against the agent's own in-process validTokens map (the server's registry lives in a different process). The ws-handler pin test now pins the shared-parser call instead of the raw cookie-name literal. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(hosts): defineHost() factory — 10 copy-paste host files become declarations hosts/*.ts were ten copies of one file: runtimeRoot byte-identical in 9/10, pathRewrites mechanically derivable from the host name for 7/10, the 11-entry toolRewrites map byte-identical between openclaw and gbrain, and every asset change a 10-file edit (cursor and slate had already fallen out of three other hand-maintained lists). defineHost() owns the defaults; each host file now declares only what makes it different (slate/cursor: 8 lines each). Shared constants: CROSS_MODEL_RESOLVERS, GBRAIN_RESOLVERS, EXEC_STYLE_TOOL_REWRITES. Genuinely-different things stayed explicit: codex/factory $GSTACK_ROOT rewrites, hermes's tool vocabulary, claude's denylist+prefixable install, opencode's wider runtimeRoot. Proof: JSON.stringify(ALL_HOST_CONFIGS) dump-diff before/after EMPTY (and a runtime walk confirmed no function-valued or undefined-keyed fields, so the JSON diff is complete); gen:skill-docs --host all zero-diff; host-config + gen-skill-docs + idempotency suites 485/485. Host files 595 -> 285 lines. docs/ADDING_A_HOST.md teaches the factory pattern. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(lib): fs-atomic — one atomic-write implementation, with the race actually fixed Atomic tmp-write-then-rename was reimplemented ~20 times across lib/, bin/, and browse/src with three tmp-suffix conventions. One of them was a latent bug this commit closes: lib/worktree.ts used a bare '.tmp' suffix — the deterministic-tmp collision race browse/src/server.ts documents having hit in production (its fix, pid+random, was trapped in a comment at one site). lib/fs-atomic.ts: atomicWriteSync (always throws, best-effort tmp cleanup, pid+random suffix, optional mode applied at tmp creation so the file never exists with looser permissions) + atomicWriteQuiet (shutdown paths only). Unit tests pin the throw/quiet contracts, 0600 mode, tmp-name uniqueness (captured via the read-only-dir failure path — Bun's fs exports are readonly, no monkeypatching), and no-stray-tmp cleanup. Migrated: lib/worktree.ts (the bare-.tmp bug), lib/gstack-decision.ts (snapshot + compact log), lib/gbrain-local-status.ts (probe cache). browse sites follow separately. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(lib): jsonl-store's docstring stops lying; mode option added; lib bypasses adopted The header claimed 'single source of truth... the ONLY copy' with write-time injection REJECTION — while appendJsonl never screened anything, only 1 of ~10 JSONL stores imported it, and a bypass appender lived in the same directory. Now: the contract is explicit (screening is the CALLER's job via hasInjection/firstInjectionMatch; the enforcing callers are named), a option applies 0600 at create for sensitive stores, and the lib bypasses are adopted (gstack-memory-helpers ×2, redact-audit-log — which keeps its chmod backstop for files created looser by pre-mode versions). browse/src keeps its own appenders by design (compiled-binary surface, own secure-append helper) and the header now says so. gstack-decision's batched archive append stays deliberate (single-write crash-window semantics appendJsonl's one-record contract can't express). New pins: 0600-at-create, and a test that documents appendJsonl does NOT self-screen — so nobody can re-document it as self-screening without making it true. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(browse): migrate hand-rolled atomic writes to lib/fs-atomic Seven sites, each audited for its existing throw-vs-swallow contract before migrating: writeSessionState + the four fire-and-forget tab/state writers use atomicWriteQuiet (they swallowed before); writeAgentRecord + the boot-time port-file write use atomicWriteSync (they threw before — and writeAgentRecord previously leaked its tmp file on rename failure, which the helper cleans). All carry {mode: 0o600} plus restrictFilePermissions after successful writes, preserving the Windows ACL hardening that writeSecureFile provided (mode bits are POSIX-only). server.ts untouched: its three state writes route through tmpStatePath(), pinned by server-tmp-state-path.test.ts. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(hosts): delete five dead HostConfig fields metadataFormat (generator hardcodes openai.yaml), sidecar (behavior lives in setup's create_agents_sidecar — knowledge preserved as a comment in codex.ts), install.prefixable (skill_prefix is implemented entirely in bin/gstack-config), staticFiles (docstring cited a SOUL.md that never existed anywhere), and adapter (its only would-be consumer, openclaw-adapter.ts, was fully dead — with a test asserting the field was undefined). Kept: learningsMode (wired next), linkingStrategy (validation reads it), coAuthorTrailer (consumed by resolvers/utility.ts). Proof: JSON dump diff shows ONLY the deleted keys vanishing; zero-diff regen across all 10 hosts; host-config + gen-skill-docs suites green. Note: this commit also carries chunk-23 edits to the shared hosts/claude.ts + define-host.ts + host-config.test.ts files (skipSkills collapse, stale line-number comment drops) — pathspec commits, concurrent prep. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gen): preamble tiers are explicit; silent ?? 4 default becomes an error; spec stops rendering its preamble twice Eight skills (scrape, diagram, spec, skillify, pair-agent, landing-report, open-gstack-browser + its connect-chrome symlink) silently received the HEAVIEST tier-4 preamble because a missing frontmatter field defaulted to 4. Tiers are now declared in every {{PREAMBLE}} template's frontmatter and a missing declaration throws at generation time with the template path (the 5 templates without {{PREAMBLE}} never invoke the resolver). The stale hand-written tier-map comment (wrong in 3 of 4 rows) is gone. Bonus bug fixed: spec/SKILL.md.tmpl mentioned {{PREAMBLE}} in prose, so the generator inlined the ENTIRE preamble a second time — spec/SKILL.md shrinks 127,462 -> 80,924 bytes (-46,538) from de-duplication alone. skill-size-budget gains a reasoned INTENTIONAL_SHRINKS entry (its frozen baseline had measured the doubled-preamble bug). New tests: missing-tier throw carries the path; every {{PREAMBLE}} template declares a tier. (Carries chunk-23 edits in the shared test/gen-skill-docs.test.ts.) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gen): learningsMode is read from host config, not a hardcoded host name resolvers/learnings.ts branched on ctx.host === 'codex' while every host declared learningsMode — the field was decorative, and the 7 hosts configured 'basic' (cursor, slate, kiro, opencode, openclaw, hermes, gbrain) silently received the 'full' cross-project flow their runtimes can't execute (it depends on AskUserQuestion + gstack-config plumbing). Output now matches declaration: basic hosts get the project-scoped search block. Blast radius proof: all committed Claude SKILL.md files and the three golden fixtures are byte-identical; the behavior diff lands only in the gitignored external-host trees (hand-verified: .cursor review's learnings section swaps the cross-project AskUserQuestion block for the project-scoped search). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(gen): small config scrubs — openclaw blobs to real files, setup host drift, dead artifacts - The three openclaw markdown blobs hardcoded inside gen-skill-docs.ts (which silently reverted any hand edit to their tracked outputs on regen) move to openclaw/templates/*.md source files; output shasums byte-identical. - setup's --host allowlists gain cursor + slate — both fully registered hosts with generated output, but './setup --host cursor' exited 1 because two hand-rolled lists in setup had drifted from hosts/index.ts. - scripts/proactive-suggestions.json deleted: 31KB regenerated on every run, read by nobody (the catalog-trim design's reader was never built); its emitter and three determinism tests (which guaranteed a file nothing reads didn't churn) retired with stays-retired pins. - claude/SKILL.md.tmpl deleted: a complete 8.9KB skill that never generated output (directory name collides with the host id 'claude'), in no registry. Recoverable from git if ever wanted under a non-colliding name. - openclaw's frozen extraFields.version '0.15.2.0' stamp dropped; includeSkills: [] no-ops omitted (the generator treats [] as absent); llms.txt 55 -> 54 skills. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(gen): correct preamble tiers for the 8 silently-heaviest skills With tiers now explicit, set them RIGHT by analogy to the tiered population: scrape/diagram/open-gstack-browser (+ the connect-chrome symlink) -> tier 1 (launchers and artifact generators, like browse and make-pdf); landing-report/pair-agent/skillify -> tier 2 (dashboards and session tools, like health and canary); spec -> tier 3 (interactive planning, like the plan-*-review family). Each tier-1 skill sheds 271 lines of onboarding prose it never needed; tier-2 shed 20 each. Verification per the review protocol: regen diff reviewed (pure section-removal), skill-validation + size-budget + catalog-budget + v0-dormancy suites green (822 tests), and live smoke of the tier-corrected skills confirms the preamble renders the intended sections at each tier. These skills have ~no eval coverage — stated honestly; the wave's gate-tier eval run is the backstop. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(test): e2e-gate — one tier-gate implementation, side-effect-free, with the trap pinned The EVALS/EVALS_TIER gate was copy-pasted into ~40 test files and had drifted into six different predicates — the drift that made 'eval:bg:all runs everything' silently false. test/helpers/e2e-gate.ts owns the semantics now: describeE2ETier(tier) + e2eTierEnabled(tier), env read at call time, zero side effects (the existing e2e-helpers module runs a ~30s claude ping at import under EVALS=1, so the gate lives in its own module; purity is pinned by tests that scan imports and comment-stripped source). The unit matrix pins all four env combos — including EVALS=1 with EVALS_TIER unset -> SKIP, the exact trap that made eval:bg:all a non-run. The tier-alignment tripwire gains a second regex for the helper shape (old shape still detected — stragglers can't hide), and the sharded paid runner's PRE-SPAWN tier classifier learns the helper shape too: without that, every gate-sharded run would have spawned all 28 periodic shards just to skip them, each paying the e2e-helpers import ping (~15 min of dead wall clock in the CI-blocking lane). Verified: gate runs exclude the 29 periodic files, periodic excludes the 8 gate files — identical to pre-migration. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(test): migrate the 36 tier-gated eval files to describeE2ETier Mechanical two-liner swap in 34 files (each keeping its declared tier — all 36 predicates verified against E2E_TIERS before migrating); the two files with compound gates (overlay-harness's EvalCollector feed, codex-e2e's CODEX_AVAILABLE) keep their extra conditions via e2eTierEnabled. Tier rationale comments preserved. codex-e2e/gemini-e2e/benchmark-providers keep their distinct stderr-message gate shapes by design. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(test): skill-e2e + skill-llm-eval adopt the shared selection machinery Both files re-implemented the diff-selection machinery e2e-helpers already exported. The helper gained computeDiffSelection() (extracted, identical behavior) and a trailing optional selection param on the *IfSelected helpers (defaults preserve all 30+ existing importers). skill-e2e.test.ts drops ~120 duplicated lines; skill-llm-eval keeps its LLM_JUDGE_TOUCHFILES selection and test.concurrent semantics via testConcurrentIfSelected. Deliberate deltas, stated: skill-e2e.test.ts now honors the EVALS_TIER intersection its local copy lacked (affects only direct bun test invocations of that file — it matches no eval-script glob); its recordE2E gains the helper's three diagnostic fields; skill-llm-eval sharded solo now runs e2e-helpers' module-scope preflight it already ran in combined processes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(test): kill the silent-truncation race; exempt the tier-corrected shrinks The full-suite shakeout (budgeted by the plan) surfaced both immediately: 1. server-embedder-terminal-port.test.ts stubbed process.exit and restored the REAL exit in its finally — but shutdown() schedules async work that can call process.exit AFTER restoration, killing the entire bun process mid-suite with exit 0 and NO summary. This is the silent-truncation class the new free-suite CI job guards against, reproduced locally on the first full run. Exit now stays a logging no-op between tests (late async exits become visible stderr lines, not process death); the true exit returns in afterAll. 2. The 80%-of-baseline shrink guard correctly flagged the six tier-corrected skills — their baseline was measured at the silent tier-4 default. Added to INTENTIONAL_SHRINKS with the reason, joining spec's double-preamble entry. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * release: v1.64.0.0 — the code-smell fix wave 35 commits, one PR: guard repairs (free suite in CI per-file, all-host freshness gates, tunnel allowlist, diff-selection validation), the sidebar-agent ghost exorcism (dead ML layers, dead endpoints, dead exports, ghost comments), config honesty (defineHost factory, dead fields deleted, preamble tiers explicit, spec double-render fixed), and dedup with safety nets (session-cookie factory, fs-atomic, jsonl-store contract, one eval tier-gate). Net -24,943 lines across 183 files. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(ci): free-tests step runs under bash (container sh rejects pipefail) Maiden-voyage shakeout, exactly as budgeted: the CI container's default shell is dash, which errors on 'set -o pipefail' before the first test ran. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(ci): free-tests curates 8 container-incompatible files with reasons Second maiden-voyage shakeout round: 376 of 384 files ran green in the container on the first completed pass. The 8 that can't run there yet are excluded the same way the Windows shards curate POSIX-bound files — each with its reason inline (headed-Chrome handoff, real-PTY round-trip, X server management, extension-origin identity, the job's own TMPDIR override, and three pre-existing env failures that fail on dev machines too). Anything outside the list that fails still fails the job; trimming the list is tracked follow-up. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(test): gstack-config-key-locale — suppress the skill_prefix auto-relink side effect The test invokes the repo's own bin/gstack-config, whose 'set skill_prefix' auto-runs $(dirname $0)/gstack-relink — resolving the install dir to the repo itself. In any environment where the loop shares a working tree (the free-tests CI container, a fresh-HOME run), gstack-patch-names rewrote all 52 tracked SKILL.md names to gstack- prefixed, poisoning five unrelated suites downstream (hermetic-skills-seeding, host-config golden, skill-census, skill-validation, spec-template-sync). GSTACK_SETUP_RUNNING=1 is the documented suppression; relink behavior stays covered by relink.test.ts's mock install. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(bin): gstack-codex-session-import — empty sessions dir exits 0 on Linux GNU xargs runs 'ls -t' once even on empty input, listing the cwd and producing a bogus LATEST from the repo root; BSD xargs (macOS) skips the run, which is why the NO_SESSIONS path only broke on Linux. xargs -r pins the BSD behavior on both platforms. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(parity): rebaseline v1.57.7.0 → v1.64.1.0 + skeleton-cap headroom The two parallel v1.64 waves (code-smell fix wave + main's garrytan#2571) each added shared-preamble prose, pushing document-release / design-consultation / cso past their size ratios on the v1.57.7.0 anchor and four carved skeletons (plan-ceo-review, plan-eng-review, office-hours, design-consultation) 22-280 B over their absolute caps. New baseline is union-normalized (skeleton + sections/*.md, matching what the harness measures); caps get +~1 KB headroom each with per-cap rationale. The v1.57.7.0 fixture stays in test/fixtures/ for the audit trail, and capture-parity-baseline.ts now documents the union-normalization step so the next rebaseline doesn't re-trip on it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(ci): free-tests container parity — tools, pinned bun, git identity, mutation tripwire - Dockerfile.ci: add python3 (gstack-jsonl-merge/brain-sync/detach shell out to it), file (skill-validation's binary check), poppler-utils (make-pdf e2e gates hard-require pdftotext/pdffonts/pdfinfo), fonts-noto-color-emoji (emoji render gate, mirrors make-pdf-gate.yml). Fix the bun pin: the bun.sh installer ignores a BUN_VERSION env var, so the old form silently installed latest on every rebuild (observed 1.3.13/1.3.14 drift vs the 1.3.10 devs run locally); pass the version as the positional arg. - free-tests.yml: git identity + safe.directory for the git-exercising tests (container checkout is owned by a different uid than runner); post-loop tree-mutation tripwire that names a tracked-file-mutating test instead of letting downstream collateral confuse the report; skip the documented variants-retry-after timing flake. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(bin): gstack-session-update — detached updater owns its stdio (SIGPIPE) The backgrounded update subshell inherited the session hook's stdout/stderr pipes. Once the hook exits and the caller closes them, any child that writes — git pull's autostash notice, setup output — dies of SIGPIPE, logged as PULL_FAILED exit=141 with an empty stderr capture (observed in the free-tests container, and reachable by any production hook runner that closes stdio promptly). Redirect the fork to /dev/null; all observability already flows through the session-update log file. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(test): gstack-decision-bins — explicit branch context for the scope filter CI checks out a detached HEAD, where gitBranch() returns undefined on both the log and search sides, so an implicitly branch-scoped decision can never surface (filterByScope requires a matching non-empty ctx.branch). Pass the branch explicitly on both sides — the filter logic is what's under test, not git branch detection. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(test): ring-buffer lease interplay — same TTL window, not same millisecond Two back-to-back mintLease() calls each stamp Date.now() + TTL; when they straddle a millisecond boundary the exact-equality assertion flakes (observed in CI: expiries of ...525 vs ...526). Assert the expiries are within a 50 ms window instead — the invariant under test is that leases share a TTL policy, not that they mint in the same clock tick.

…bles skills, brain-cache honest-missing fix, ship v1.1.0 lint gate Re-port of the pre-upgrade local commits (preserved at local-fixes-pre-1.64) onto upstream v1.64.1.0, final-state port + regen rather than cherry-picks: - autobuilder-loop/ and plan-deliverables/ SKILL.md.tmpl at their final pre-upgrade state (v1.6.1 / v1.2.0, both preamble-tier: 3), including the adversarial-forum effort ladders and error-class-aware retry - bin/gstack-brain-cache: local decisions.active.json ledger for recent-decisions; honest 'missing' instead of fabricated-empty on gbrain failure (upstream never touched the file — clean port) - ship v1.1.0: lint+typecheck gate in Steps 5/16, hardened bin/gstack-lint-touched + contract test (heals the live PostToolUse hook in ~/.claude/settings.json that dangled since the reset) - v1.64.1.0-era registrations the old commits predate: skill-coverage-matrix entries, AGENTS.md + docs/skills.md doc-inventory rows, catalog-budget ratchet 1150 -> 1250 (measured 1203; derivation comment updated per RATCHET_PROTOCOL). proactive-suggestions.json hunks dropped (retirement is CI-pinned). - preamble carve (5422e28) deliberately NOT ported in this wave.

… + Grok, union gate FAIL -> all P1s fixed)
Adversarial review of the restoration commit by both external CLIs per the
autobuilder-loop forum recipe. Every [P1] fixed, cheap [P2]s included:
P1 (found by both models independently):
- plan-deliverables: {{BENEFITS_FROM}} prose reference expanded the whole
Prerequisite Skill Offer block mid-sentence in generated output,
contradicting the surrounding stop-if-no-design-doc rule -> braces dropped
- brain-cache: local decisions ledger rendered decision/scope/date into the
planning-skill digest without datamark() (gstack-decision.ts documents
snapshot reads as datamark-required) -> datamark at render + regression test
- config gates compared against literal 'on'/'off' while gstack-config's
vocabulary is enabled/disabled (unset keys return empty, exit 0) -> both
members self-classified ABSENT on every default install; now explicit-
negative gating in both skills' recipes
P1 (Codex): plan-deliverables gap-check had the agent paste doc-derived text
inside a quoted heredoc — a doc line equal to the terminator executes the
rest as shell -> untrusted text now travels as a Write-tool file; only the
agent-chosen path is substituted into the script; skip-guard keys on the
appended fences
P1 (Grok) / P2 (Codex): autobuilder-loop {{REVIEW_ARMY}} prose reference
pasted the full Review Army dispatch into the SKIP-instruction parenthetical
P2 hardening: lint-touched array-built command (spaces in ROOT), leading-dash
file_path guard, biome >=2 crash fail-open parity; brain-cache Array.isArray
payload guard + slug traversal reject; /autobuilder-loop registered in
CLAUDE.md tree+routing and README (gap in the original July commits).
Deferred (design-level, documented in session report): ledger-priority vs
brain-cache-spec drift, ship Step 5 bunx/script-detect/exit-join, autobuilder

…~/.claude ban The skill-seeding tripwire asserted every seeded symlink target must NOT start with ~/.claude — but on the default global-git install the repo itself lives at ~/.claude/skills/gstack, so every CORRECT symlink (which must resolve into the live repo tree, as the very next assertion requires) carried the banned prefix. The test could never pass on a default install: pristine v1.64.1.0 (c118e24) fails it in any worktree under ~/.claude/skills/ and passes elsewhere (verified 2026-08-15). Exempt targets that realpath into the resolved repo ROOT before applying the operatorClaude ban — realpath both sides so a symlinked HOME can't dodge the tripwire. Genuine escapes (a target under ~/.claude but outside the repo) still fail with the escape message. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…efactors All three failed deterministically on PRISTINE v1.64.1.0 (c118e24) on any machine that actually runs them; upstream CI never sees the first because it skips without Playwright chromium installed. - compare-board.test.ts: the v1.64 signature-bridge wrapper for handleReadCommand dropped its 4th argument (the BrowserManager), so the now-unconditional JS-origin assertion TypeError'd on bm.hasCookieImports() — all 16 tests. The sibling write bridge two lines down had it right. - extension-sender-auth.test.ts: the behavioral 'gate answers' loops iterated 'sidebar-command', which background.js no longer routes (dropped from ALLOWED_TYPES with the chat rip) — the listener goes silent on unknown types BEFORE the sender gate. Routed types keep the answers assertion; 'sidebar-command' keeps a nothing-usable-leaks check. - security-sidepanel-dom.test.ts: five tests drove the shield/banner off the ripped chat path; the first waited 15s for a data-status that never arrives, and bun's timeout handler SIGTERM'd the SHARED beforeAll browser (exit 143), cascading 'browser has been closed' into the rest. Replaced with pins of the current contract (shield exists, stays hidden, stays undriven) plus a tombstone for resurrecting the old cases if the shield is ever re-driven.

…y preamble sections, Claude host only Full port of the shared-preamble carve (5422e28, preserved on local-fixes-pre-1.64) per the restoration audit's file map. Upstream v1.62-v1.64.1 never built an equivalent: main still composed the full inline preamble per skill. Mechanism: tier-2+ Claude-host skills get a '## Preamble Section Index' pointing at shared preamble/sections/{onboarding,ask-user-questions, artifacts-sync}.md (one copy for the whole suite, read on demand via {{PREAMBLE_SECTION:id}} / carved-sections.ts). Every other host keeps the full inline preamble. bin/gstack-artifacts-preamble carries the always-run artifacts-sync bash (KEEP-IN-SYNC with generate-brain-sync-block.ts). Ported with the audit's adaptations: - KEPT upstream's mandatory preamble-tier throw (no '?? 4' fallback) - brain-sync arithmetic guard + _GBRAIN_HOST sanitize applied on top of upstream's quoteSafePath (also PR'd upstream separately as garrytan#2588) - toYamlInlineScalar '...' quoting + catalog-trim coverage (also garrytan#2589) - deleted dead generate-writing-style-migration (WRITING_STYLE_PENDING was never echoed); migration v1.0.0.0.sh rewritten to a one-line notice - bin/gstack-config explain_level honesty block re-anchored into the refactored set path - autoplan lazy per-phase review-skill loading merged with upstream's scope-gate skip line - carve-guards floors re-derived from the post-carve regen (design- consultation 52k/69k, cso 58k/68k measured 2026-08-15), NOT copied - fresh parity baseline parity-baseline-v1.64.1.0-carve.json captured and union-normalized for the 9 carved skills; skill-size-budget and parity-suite repointed - ship goldens re-blessed; regen verified 0 STALE across all 10 hosts; non-Claude hosts confirmed inline (with the arithmetic guard); tier-1 index confirmed AUQ-row-free, tier-3 carries it Verification: 638 carve-critical + 778 adjacent tests green.

…ough _receipted_git The garrytan#48 carve port moved the daily GSTACK_HOME fetch out of agent-executed skill prose (exempt: agent-typed) into a real auto-run binary — a genuine egress sink the NEW-SINK SCANNER correctly flagged. Wired fail-closed with brain-sync's own sink name and polarity (same operation, relocated); the --ff-only merge now runs only after a successful receipted fetch. Registered in SHELL_SINKS per the test's protocol; the prose exemption note narrowed to non-Claude hosts. Found by the CI-parity per-file suite (shard 9) during carve-port verification.

…handleReadCommand bridge (same class as compare-board) Upstream v1.64.1.0 changed handleReadCommand's signature to (command, args, session, bm), but this file's local bridge still called it with the old 3-arg shape, leaving bm undefined. read-commands.ts:186's now-unconditional JS-origin assertion then TypeErrors on bm.hasCookieImports(), which is exactly the bug already fixed in compare-board.test.ts (8a37d90).

…r rides milestone commits; lint-touched detects flat eslint configs - autobuilder-loop/SKILL.md.tmpl: add a one-time Worktree preflight gate at loop kickoff (step 0, before any milestone work). If `git status --porcelain` is non-empty, AskUserQuestion ONCE — stash unrelated changes (recommended), proceed with explicit consent, or abort — so a dirty worktree's unrelated/secret files never ride the loop's first `git add -A` milestone commit into review/ship. Adds a reconciling sentence at the milestone-commit site: the preflight-clean start is what makes `-A` safe there; the general rule against blind `git add -A` elsewhere still holds. - bin/gstack-lint-touched: fix eslint config detection. `ls "$ROOT"/.eslintrc* "$ROOT"/eslint.config.*` exited non-zero whenever EITHER glob had no match (the unmatched glob passes through literally and ls errors on it), so a repo with only flat config (eslint.config.js — the modern majority) silently skipped linting. Now detects each config family independently via a bash-3.2-safe loop. - test/gstack-lint-touched.test.ts: add a regression case — a repo with only eslint.config.js (+ an executable node_modules/.bin/eslint stub) must run the linter.

…amble + brain-sync prose (control-line forgery) P1: _BRAIN_LAST_PUSH and _BRAIN_NEW_URL in bin/gstack-artifacts-preamble were interpolated into agent-consumed ARTIFACTS_SYNC control lines with no defense against multi-line/control-char values from the git-synced ~/.gstack tree; first-line-only + charset/length caps now apply, plus a numeric guard on _BRAIN_QUEUE_DEPTH. Mirrored into the KEEP-IN-SYNC prose twin (generate-brain-sync-block.ts) since non-Claude hosts execute that rendered bash and share the same forgery surface. P2-a: the last-pull cooldown stamp now only writes on a successful receipted fetch, so one failed fetch no longer silences pulls for 24h. P2-b: the GBrain-tip grep -c pattern no longer doubles its own "0" output via a redundant `|| echo 0`, which broke the numeric comparison. P2-c: bin/gstack-brain-cache now datamark()s free-text title/slug fields and projectSlug digest headers in fetchGoals/fetchRecentDecisions/fetchSalience's gbrain-served content before it lands in agent context.

Summary
Fixes GitHub issue #48 ("token overhead: ~44 KB of identical preamble inlined into all 56 skills), plus the branch's two new skills and supporting fixes.
Preamble carve (the headline) — the runtime-conditional preamble mass (full AskUserQuestion spec, one-time onboarding chain, artifacts-sync rare paths) moved from inlined-in-every-
SKILL.mdinto sharedpreamble/sections/files read on demand. Claude-host only; every other harness keeps its full inline preamble. A compact always-loaded AskUserQuestion contract stays inline so a question firing before the full spec loads still renders a compliant brief./autoplanloads each review skill at the start of its own phase (UI/DX scope gates loading, not just running): 421 KB → 84 KB upfront.gstack-config set explain_levelnow states it is a runtime switch and prints the rebuild command; three terse-gated headings self-describe.New skills (committed earlier on the branch):
/autobuilder-loop(drives an approved plan to completion, model-routed subagents per milestone, Docker verification) and/plan-deliverables(turns a plan into per-milestone acceptance criteria the build loop consumes).Also on the branch: brain-cache F10 fix (local decisions ledger + honest "missing" instead of fabricated-empty),
/shiplint+typecheck gate, adversarial-forum retry hardening.Test Coverage
AI-assessed coverage 65% (above the 60% gate). Gaps were concentrated in new executable bash and the brain-cache F10 path. The two security-critical fixes got dedicated regression tests this ship (
test/artifacts-preamble.test.ts,test/gstack-lint-touched.test.ts);toYamlInlineScalarand the autoplan lazy-load structure got unit/structural pins. Remaining gaps (brain-cache F10, skill-check host-aware branch) are filed as P3 follow-ups — the coverage-gen subagents hit the account spend limit before writing them.Free deterministic suite: 442 files, 6945 tests ran to completion. The daemon test-suite-suicide bug (below) was masking failures in earlier runs; with it fixed the suite runs whole.
Pre-Landing Review
Full pass: 4 specialists (testing, maintainability, security, performance) + checklist + adversarial review. Real issues found and fixed:
.brain-last-pullfed into$(( ))— the file lives in the git-synced~/.gstacktree, so a compromised artifacts remote could plant code that runs at the next skill start. Numeric-validated before evaluation, in both the Claude script and the non-Claude inline source. Regression test added.bin/gstack-lint-touchedran unboundedbunx eslintper edit (verified live downloading 166 packages) and executed repo-controlled config. Hardened: repo-local binaries only, no networkbunx, fail-open on tool crash/timeout, JSON-first path extraction. Regression test added.design/test/daemon.test.tsrestored the realprocess.exitbefore its armed shutdown timers fired — an assertion failure there killed the wholebun testrun with exit 0 and no summary. Drained insidefinally; the staticno-suicide-exitguard widened to catch every spelling.ARTIFACTS_SYNCstatus lines into trusted output — sanitized. Regression test added.(npm run lint || bun run lint)re-run pattern, AUQ format-block duplication (now a shared constant), dead-anchor docs, stale comments — all fixed.Two items deferred to follow-ups by decision: the lint hook's PostToolUse install (a standing-config change deserving explicit opt-in — hook ships hardened but dormant), and the codex forum member's read-only sandbox flag (unverified on
codex review; could break a paid call).Design Review
No frontend files changed — design review skipped.
Plan Completion
Issue garrytan#48: 4 of 5 fixes delivered (the token-overhead carve). Fix garrytan#5 (repo-file hygiene: CHANGELOG/TODOS/CLAUDE.md size) deliberately deferred to a follow-up PR to keep this diff reviewable. The branch's committed work (autobuilder-loop, plan-deliverables, ship lint gate) has no separate plan file — audited against commit messages.
TODOS
Marked the pre-existing "carve the preamble reference blocks" P3 as done (v1.61.0.0). Filed follow-ups: garrytan#48 fix 5 (repo hygiene, P2), lint-hook install (P3), brain-cache/skill-check regression tests (P3), codex forum read-only sandbox (P4).
