fix: scale context meter to usable window respecting CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_COMPACT_WINDOW (#2219)

The autocompact buffer percentage was hardcoded to 16.5%. Users who set
CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_COMPACT_WINDOW to a custom token count (e.g. 400000 on
a 1M-context model) saw a miscalibrated context meter and incorrect
warning thresholds in the context-monitor hook (which reads used_pct from
the bridge file the statusline writes).

Now reads CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_COMPACT_WINDOW from the hook env and computes:
  buffer_pct = acw_tokens / total_tokens * 100
Defaults to 16.5% when the var is absent or zero, preserving existing
behavior.

Also applies the renameDecimalPhases zero-padding fix for clean CI.

+# Plan: Fix Install Process Issues (#1755 + Full Audit)
+
+## Overview
+Full cleanup of install.js addressing all issues found during comprehensive audit.
+All changes in `bin/install.js` unless noted.
+
+## Changes
+
+### Fix 1: Add chmod +x for .sh hooks during install (CRITICAL)
+**Line 5391-5392** — After `fs.copyFileSync`, add `fs.chmodSync(destFile, 0o755)` for `.sh` files.
+
+### Fix 2: Fix Codex hook path and filename (CRITICAL)
+**Line 5485** — Change `gsd-update-check.js` to `gsd-check-update.js` and fix path from `get-shit-done/hooks/` to `hooks/`.
+**Line 5492** — Update dedup check to use `gsd-check-update`.
+
+### Fix 3: Fix stale cache invalidation path (CRITICAL)
+**Line 5406** — Change from `path.join(path.dirname(targetDir), 'cache', ...)` to `path.join(os.homedir(), '.cache', 'gsd', 'gsd-update-check.json')`.
+
+### Fix 4: Track .sh hooks in manifest (MEDIUM)
+**Line 4972** — Change filter from `file.endsWith('.js')` to `(file.endsWith('.js') || file.endsWith('.sh'))`.
+
+### Fix 5: Add gsd-workflow-guard.js to uninstall hook list (MEDIUM)
+**Line 4404** — Add `'gsd-workflow-guard.js'` to the `gsdHooks` array.
+
+### Fix 6: Add community hooks to uninstall settings.json cleanup (MEDIUM)
+**Lines 4453-4520** — Add filters for `gsd-session-state`, `gsd-validate-commit`, `gsd-phase-boundary` in the appropriate event cleanup blocks (SessionStart, PreToolUse, PostToolUse).
+
+### Fix 7: Remove phantom gsd-check-update.sh from uninstall list (LOW)
+**Line 4404** — Remove `'gsd-check-update.sh'` from `gsdHooks` array.
+
+### Fix 8: Remove dead isCursor/isWindsurf branches in uninstall (LOW)
+Remove the unreachable duplicate `else if (isCursor)` and `else if (isWindsurf)` branches.
+
+### Fix 9: Improve verifyInstalled() for hooks (LOW)
+After the generic check, warn if expected `.sh` files are missing (non-fatal warning).
+
+## New Test File
+`tests/install-hooks-copy.test.cjs` — Regression tests covering:
+- .sh files copied to target dir
+- .sh files are executable after copy
+- .sh files tracked in manifest
+- settings.json hook paths match installed files
+- uninstall removes community hooks from settings.json
+- uninstall removes gsd-workflow-guard.js
+- Codex hook uses correct filename
+- Cache path resolves correctly

CHANGELOG.md

@@ -6,9 +6,147 @@ Format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/).
 
 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Fixed
+- **Shell hooks falsely flagged as stale on every session** — `gsd-phase-boundary.sh`, `gsd-session-state.sh`, and `gsd-validate-commit.sh` now ship with a `# gsd-hook-version: {{GSD_VERSION}}` header; the installer substitutes `{{GSD_VERSION}}` in `.sh` hooks the same way it does for `.js` hooks; and the stale-hook detector in `gsd-check-update.js` now matches bash `#` comment syntax in addition to JS `//` syntax. All three changes are required together — neither the regex fix alone nor the install fix alone is sufficient to resolve the false positive (#2136, #2206, #2209, #2210, #2212)
+
+## [1.36.0] - 2026-04-14
+
+### Added
+- **`/gsd-graphify` integration** — Knowledge graph for planning agents, enabling richer context connections between project artifacts (#2164)
+- **`gsd-pattern-mapper` agent** — Codebase pattern analysis agent for identifying recurring patterns and conventions (#1861)
+- **`@gsd-build/sdk` — Phase 1 typed query foundation** — Registry-based `gsd-sdk query` command with classified errors and unit-tested handlers for state, roadmap, phase lifecycle, init, config, and validation (#2118)
+- **Opt-in TDD pipeline mode** — `tdd_mode` exposed in init JSON with `--tdd` flag override for test-driven development workflows (#2119, #2124)
+- **Stale/orphan worktree detection (W017)** — `validate-health` now detects stale and orphan worktrees (#2175)
+- **Seed scanning in new-milestone** — Planted seeds are scanned during milestone step 2.5 for automatic surfacing (#2177)
+- **Artifact audit gate** — Open artifact auditing for milestone close and phase verify (#2157, #2158, #2160)
+- **`/gsd-quick` and `/gsd-thread` subcommands** — Added list/status/resume/close subcommands (#2159)
+- **Debug skill dispatch and session manager** — Sub-orchestrator for `/gsd-debug` sessions (#2154)
+- **Project skills awareness** — 9 GSD agents now discover and use project-scoped skills (#2152)
+- **`/gsd-debug` session management** — TDD gate, reasoning checkpoint, and security hardening (#2146)
+- **Context-window-aware prompt thinning** — Automatic prompt size reduction for sub-200K models (#1978)
+- **SDK `--ws` flag** — Workstream-aware execution support (#1884)

+- **Agent specs standardization** — Standardized `required_reading` patterns across agent specs (#2176)
+- **CI upgrades** — GitHub Actions upgraded to Node 22+ runtimes; release pipeline fixes (#2128, #1956)
+- **Branch cleanup workflow** — Auto-delete on merge + weekly sweep (#2051)
+- **PR #2179 maintainer review (Trek-e)** — Scoped SDK to Phase 2 (#2122): removed `gsd-sdk query` passthrough to `gsd-tools.cjs` and `GSD_TOOLS_PATH` override; argv routing consolidated in `resolveQueryArgv()`. `GSDTools` JSON parsing now reports `@file:` indirection read failures instead of failing opaquely. `execute-plan.md` defers Task Commit Protocol to `agents/gsd-executor.md` (single source of truth). Stale `/gsd:` scan (#1748) skips `.planning/` and root `CLAUDE.md` so local gitignored overlays do not fail CI.
+- **SDK query registry (PR #2179 review)** — Register `summary-extract` as an alias of `summary.extract` so workflows/agents match CJS naming. Correct `audit-fix.md` to call `audit-uat` instead of nonexistent `init.audit-uat`.
+- **`gsd-tools audit-open`** — Use `core.output()` (was undefined `output()`), and pass the artifact object for `--json` so stdout is JSON (not double-stringified).
+- **SDK query layer (PR review hardening)** — `commit-to-subrepo` uses realpath-aware path containment and sanitized commit messages; `state.planned-phase` uses the STATE.md lockfile; `verifyKeyLinks` mitigates ReDoS on frontmatter patterns; frontmatter handlers resolve paths under the real project root; phase directory names reject `..` and separators; `gsd-sdk` restores strict CLI parsing by stripping `--pick` before `parseArgs`; `QueryRegistry.commands()` for enumeration; `todoComplete` uses static error imports.
+- **`gsd-sdk query` routing (Phase 2 scope)** — `resolveQueryArgv()` maps argv to registered handlers (longest-prefix match on dotted and spaced command keys; optional single-token dotted split). Unregistered commands are rejected at the CLI; use `node …/gsd-tools.cjs` for CJS-only subcommands. `resolveGsdToolsPath()` probes the SDK-bundled copy, then project and user `~/.claude/get-shit-done/` installs (no `GSD_TOOLS_PATH` override). Broader “CLI parity” passthrough is explicitly out of scope for #2122 and tracked separately for a future approved issue.
+- **SDK query follow-up (tests, docs, registry)** — Expanded `QUERY_MUTATION_COMMANDS` for event emission; stale lock cleanup uses PID liveness (`process.kill(pid, 0)`) when a lock file exists; `searchJsonEntries` is depth-bounded (`MAX_JSON_SEARCH_DEPTH`); removed unnecessary `readdirSync`/`Dirent` casts across query handlers; added `sdk/src/query/QUERY-HANDLERS.md` (error vs `{ data.error }`, mutations, locks, intel limits); unit tests for intel, profile, uat, skills, summary, websearch, workstream, registry vs `QUERY_MUTATION_COMMANDS`, and frontmatter extract/splice round-trip.
+- **Phase 2 caller migration (#2122)** — Workflows, agents, and commands prefer `gsd-sdk query` for registered handlers; extended migration to additional orchestration call sites (review, plan-phase, execute-plan, ship, extract_learnings, ai-integration-phase, eval-review, next, profile-user, autonomous, thread command) and researcher agents; dual-path and CJS-only exceptions documented in `docs/CLI-TOOLS.md` and `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md`; relaxed `tests/gsd-tools-path-refs.test.cjs` so `commands/gsd/workstreams.md` may document `gsd-sdk query` without `node` + `gsd-tools.cjs`. CJS `gsd-tools.cjs` remains on disk; graphify and other non-registry commands stay on CJS until registered. (#2008)
+- **Phase 2 docs and call sites (follow-up)** — `docs/USER-GUIDE.md` now explains `gsd-sdk query` vs legacy CJS and lists CJS-only commands (`state validate`/`sync`, `audit-open`, `graphify`, `from-gsd2`). Updated `commands/gsd` (`debug`, `quick`, `intel`), `agents/gsd-debug-session-manager.md`, and workflows (`milestone-summary`, `forensics`, `next`, `complete-milestone`, `verify-work`, `discuss-phase`, `progress`, `verify-phase`, `add-phase`/`insert-phase`/`remove-phase`, `transition`, `manager`, `quick`) for `gsd-sdk query` or explicit CJS exceptions (`audit-open`).
+- **Phase 2 orchestration doc pass (#2122)** — Aligned `commands/gsd` (`execute-phase`, `code-review`, `code-review-fix`, `from-gsd2`, `graphify`) and agents (`gsd-verifier`, `gsd-plan-checker`, `gsd-code-fixer`, `gsd-executor`, `gsd-planner`, researchers, debugger) so examples use `init.*` query names, correct `frontmatter.get` positional field, `state.*` positional args, and `commit` with positional file paths (not `--files`, except `commit-to-subrepo` which keeps `--files`).
+- **Phase 2 `commit` example sweep (#2122)** — Normalized `gsd-sdk query commit` usage across `get-shit-done/workflows/**/*.md`, `get-shit-done/references/**/*.md`, and `commands/gsd/**/*.md` so file paths follow the message positionally (SDK `commit` handler); `gsd-sdk query commit-to-subrepo … --files …` unchanged. Updated `get-shit-done/references/git-planning-commit.md` prose; adjusted workflow contract tests (`claude-md`, forensics, milestone-summary, gates taxonomy CRLF-safe `required_reading`, verifier `roadmap.analyze`) for the new examples.

+
+## [1.35.0] - 2026-04-10
+
+### Added
+- **Cline runtime support** — First-class Cline runtime via rules-based integration. Installs to `~/.cline/` or `./.cline/` as `.clinerules`. No custom slash commands — uses rules. `--cline` flag. (#1605 follow-up)
+- **CodeBuddy runtime support** — Skills-based install to `~/.codebuddy/skills/gsd-*/SKILL.md`. `--codebuddy` flag.
+- **Qwen Code runtime support** — Skills-based install to `~/.qwen/skills/gsd-*/SKILL.md`, same open standard as Claude Code 2.1.88+. `QWEN_CONFIG_DIR` env var for custom paths. `--qwen` flag.
+- **`/gsd-from-gsd2` command** (`gsd:from-gsd2`) — Reverse migration from GSD-2 format (`.gsd/` with Milestone→Slice→Task hierarchy) back to v1 `.planning/` format. Flags: `--dry-run` (preview only), `--force` (overwrite existing `.planning/`), `--path <dir>` (specify GSD-2 root). Produces `PROJECT.md`, `REQUIREMENTS.md`, `ROADMAP.md`, `STATE.md`, and sequential phase dirs. Flattens Milestone→Slice hierarchy to sequential phase numbers (M001/S01→phase 01, M001/S02→phase 02, M002/S01→phase 03, etc.).
+- **`/gsd-ai-integration-phase` command** (`gsd:ai-integration-phase`) — AI framework selection wizard for integrating AI/LLM capabilities into a project phase. Interactive decision matrix with domain-specific failure modes and eval criteria. Produces `AI-SPEC.md` with framework recommendation, implementation guidance, and evaluation strategy. Runs 3 parallel specialist agents: domain-researcher, framework-selector, ai-researcher, eval-planner.
+- **`/gsd-eval-review` command** (`gsd:eval-review`) — Retroactive audit of an implemented AI phase's evaluation coverage. Checks implementation against `AI-SPEC.md` evaluation plan. Scores each eval dimension as COVERED/PARTIAL/MISSING. Produces `EVAL-REVIEW.md` with findings, gaps, and remediation guidance.
+- **Review model configuration** — Per-CLI model selection for /gsd-review via `review.models.<cli>` config keys. Falls back to CLI defaults when not set. (#1849)
+- **Statusline now surfaces GSD milestone/phase/status** — when no `in_progress` todo is active, `gsd-statusline.js` reads `.planning/STATE.md` (walking up from the workspace dir) and fills the middle slot with `<milestone> · <status> · <phase> (N/total)`. Gracefully degrades when fields are missing; identical to previous behavior when there is no STATE.md or an active todo wins the slot. Uses the YAML frontmatter added for #628.
+- **Qwen Code and Cursor CLI peer reviewers** — Added as reviewers in `/gsd-review` with `--qwen` and `--cursor` flags. (#1966)
+
+### Changed
+- **Worktree safety — `git clean` prohibition** — `gsd-executor` now prohibits `git clean` in worktree context to prevent deletion of prior wave output. (#2075)
+- **Executor deletion verification** — Pre-merge deletion checks added to catch missing artifacts before executor commit. (#2070)
+- **Hard reset in worktree branch check** — `--hard` flag in `worktree_branch_check` now correctly resets the file tree, not just HEAD. (#2073)
+
+### Fixed
+- **Context7 MCP CLI fallback** — Handles `tools: []` response that previously broke Context7 availability detection. (#1885)
+- **`Agent` tool in gsd-autonomous** — Added `Agent` to `allowed-tools` to unblock subagent spawning. (#2043)
+- **`intel.enabled` in config-set whitelist** — Config key now accepted by `config-set` without validation error. (#2021)
+- **`writeSettings` null guard** — Guards against null `settingsPath` for Cline runtime to prevent crash on install. (#2046)
+- **Shell hook absolute paths** — `.sh` hooks now receive absolute quoted paths in `buildHookCommand`, fixing path resolution in non-standard working directories. (#2045)
+- **`processAttribution` runtime-aware** — Was hardcoded to `'claude'`; now reads actual runtime from environment.
+- **`AskUserQuestion` plain-text fallback** — Non-Claude runtimes now receive plain-text numbered lists instead of broken TUI menus.
+- **iOS app scaffold uses XcodeGen** — Prevents SPM execution errors in generated iOS scaffolds. (#2023)
+- **`acceptance_criteria` hard gate** — Enforced as a hard gate in executor — plans missing acceptance criteria are rejected before execution begins. (#1958)
+- **`normalizePhaseName` preserves letter suffix case** — Phase names with letter suffixes (e.g., `1a`, `2B`) now preserve original case. (#1963)
+
+## [1.34.2] - 2026-04-06
+
+### Changed
+- **Node.js minimum lowered to 22** — `engines.node` was raised to `>=24.0.0` based on a CI matrix change, but Node 22 is still in Active LTS until October 2026. Restoring Node 22 support eliminates the `EBADENGINE` warning for users on the previous LTS line. CI matrix now tests against both Node 22 and Node 24.
+
+## [1.34.1] - 2026-04-06
+
+### Fixed
+- **npm publish catchup** — v1.33.0 and v1.34.0 were tagged but never published to npm; this release makes all changes available via `npx get-shit-done-cc@latest`
+- Removed npm v1.32.0 stuck notice from README
+
+## [1.34.0] - 2026-04-06

+### Added
+- **Gates taxonomy reference** — 4 canonical gate types (pre-flight, revision, escalation, abort) with phase matrix wired into plan-checker and verifier agents (#1781)
+- **Post-merge hunk verification** — `reapply-patches` now detects silently dropped hunks after three-way merge (#1775)
+- **Execution context profiles** — Three context profiles (`dev`, `research`, `review`) for mode-specific agent output guidance (#1807)
+
+### Fixed
+- **Shell hooks missing from npm package** — `hooks/*.sh` files excluded from tarball due to `hooks/dist` allowlist; changed to `hooks` (#1852 #1862)
+- **detectConfigDir priority** — `.claude` now searched first so Claude Code users don't see false update warnings when multiple runtimes are installed (#1860)
+- **Milestone backlog preservation** — `phases clear` no longer wipes 999.x backlog phases (#1858)
+
 ## [1.33.0] - 2026-04-05
 
 ### Added
+- **Queryable codebase intelligence system** -- Persistent `.planning/intel/` store with structured JSON files (files, exports, symbols, patterns, dependencies). Query via `gsd-tools intel` subcommands. Incremental updates via `gsd-intel-updater` agent. Opt-in; projects without intel store are unaffected. (#1688)
 - **Shared behavioral references** — Add questioning, domain-probes, and UI-brand reference docs wired into workflows (#1658)
 - **Chore / Maintenance issue template** — Structured template for internal maintenance tasks (#1689)

+> If you're returning to GSD after the recent Anthropic Terms of Service changes — welcome back. We kept building while you were gone.
+>
+> **To re-import an existing project into GSD:**
+> 1. Run `/gsd-map-codebase` to scan and index your current codebase state
+> 2. Run `/gsd-new-project` to initialize a fresh GSD planning structure using the codebase map as context
+> 3. Review [docs/USER-GUIDE.md](docs/USER-GUIDE.md) and the [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for updates — a lot has changed since you were last here
+>
+> Your code is fine. GSD just needs its planning context rebuilt. The two commands above handle that.

-- **STATE.md consistency gates** — `state validate` detects drift between STATE.md and filesystem; `state sync` reconstructs from actual project state
-- **`--to N` flag** — Stop autonomous execution after a specific phase
-- **Research gate** — Blocks planning when RESEARCH.md has unresolved open questions
-- **Verifier milestone scope filtering** — Gaps addressed in later phases marked as deferred, not gaps
-- **Read-before-edit guard** — Advisory hook prevents infinite retry loops in non-Claude runtimes

+# Versioning & Release Strategy
+
+GSD follows [Semantic Versioning 2.0.0](https://semver.org/) with three release tiers mapped to npm dist-tags.
+
+## Release Tiers
+
+| Tier | What ships | Version format | npm tag | Branch | Install |
+|------|-----------|---------------|---------|--------|---------|
+| **Patch** | Bug fixes only | `1.27.1` | `latest` | `hotfix/1.27.1` | `npx get-shit-done-cc@latest` |
+| **Minor** | Fixes + enhancements | `1.28.0` | `latest` (after RC) | `release/1.28.0` | `npx get-shit-done-cc@next` (RC) |
+| **Major** | Fixes + enhancements + features | `2.0.0` | `latest` (after beta) | `release/2.0.0` | `npx get-shit-done-cc@next` (beta) |
+
+## npm Dist-Tags
+
+Only two tags, following Angular/Next.js convention:
+
+| Tag | Meaning | Installed by |
+|-----|---------|-------------|
+| `latest` | Stable production release | `npm install get-shit-done-cc` (default) |
+| `next` | Pre-release (RC or beta) | `npm install get-shit-done-cc@next` (opt-in) |
+
+The version string (`-rc.1` vs `-beta.1`) communicates stability level. Users never get pre-releases unless they explicitly opt in.
+
+## Semver Rules
+
+| Increment | When | Examples |
+|-----------|------|----------|
+| **PATCH** (1.27.x) | Bug fixes, typo corrections, test additions | Hook filter fix, config corruption fix |
+| **MINOR** (1.x.0) | Non-breaking enhancements, new commands, new runtime support | New workflow command, discuss-mode feature |
+| **MAJOR** (x.0.0) | Breaking changes to config format, CLI flags, or runtime API; new features that alter existing behavior | Removing a command, changing config schema |
+
+## Pre-Release Version Progression
+
+Major and minor releases use different pre-release types:
+
+```
+Minor: 1.28.0-rc.1  →  1.28.0-rc.2  →  1.28.0
+Major: 2.0.0-beta.1 →  2.0.0-beta.2 →  2.0.0
+```
+
+- **beta** (major releases only): Feature-complete but not fully tested. API mostly stable. Used for major releases to signal a longer testing cycle.
+- **rc** (minor releases only): Production-ready candidate. Only critical fixes expected.
+- Each version uses one pre-release type throughout its cycle. The `rc` action in the release workflow automatically selects the correct type based on the version.
+
+## Branch Structure
+
+```
+main                              ← stable, always deployable
+  │
+  ├── hotfix/1.27.1               ← patch: cherry-pick fix from main, publish to latest
+  │
+  ├── release/1.28.0              ← minor: accumulate fixes + enhancements, RC cycle
+  │     ├── v1.28.0-rc.1          ← tag: published to next
+  │     └── v1.28.0               ← tag: promoted to latest
+  │
+  ├── release/2.0.0               ← major: features + breaking changes, beta cycle

+  ├── feat/925-feature-name       ← feature branch (merges to main)
+  └── chore/1206-maintenance      ← maintenance branch (merges to main)
+```
+
+## Release Workflows
+
+### Patch Release (Hotfix)
+
+For critical bugs that can't wait for the next minor release.
+
+1. Trigger `hotfix.yml` with version (e.g., `1.27.1`)
+2. Workflow creates `hotfix/1.27.1` branch from the latest patch tag for that minor version (e.g., `v1.27.0` or `v1.27.1`)
+3. Cherry-pick or apply fix on the hotfix branch
+4. Push — CI runs tests automatically
+5. Trigger `hotfix.yml` finalize action
+6. Workflow runs full test suite, bumps version, tags, publishes to `latest`
+7. Merge hotfix branch back to main
+
+### Minor Release (Standard Cycle)
+
+For accumulated fixes and enhancements.
+
+1. Trigger `release.yml` with action `create` and version (e.g., `1.28.0`)
+2. Workflow creates `release/1.28.0` branch from main, bumps package.json
+3. Trigger `release.yml` with action `rc` to publish `1.28.0-rc.1` to `next`
+4. Test the RC: `npx get-shit-done-cc@next`
+5. If issues found: fix on release branch, publish `rc.2`, `rc.3`, etc.
+6. Trigger `release.yml` with action `finalize` — publishes `1.28.0` to `latest`
+7. Merge release branch to main
+
+### Major Release
+
+Same as minor but uses `-beta.N` instead of `-rc.N`, signaling a longer testing cycle.
+
+1. Trigger `release.yml` with action `create` and version (e.g., `2.0.0`)
+2. Trigger `release.yml` with action `rc` to publish `2.0.0-beta.1` to `next`
+3. If issues found: fix on release branch, publish `beta.2`, `beta.3`, etc.
+4. Trigger `release.yml` with action `finalize` -- publishes `2.0.0` to `latest`
+5. Merge release branch to main
+
+## Conventional Commits
+
+Branch names map to commit types:
+
+| Branch prefix | Commit type | Version bump |
+|--------------|-------------|-------------|
+| `fix/` | `fix:` | PATCH |
+| `feat/` | `feat:` | MINOR |
+| `hotfix/` | `fix:` | PATCH (immediate) |
+| `chore/` | `chore:` | none |
+| `docs/` | `docs:` | none |
+| `refactor/` | `refactor:` | none |
+
+## Publishing Commands (Reference)
+
+```bash
+# Stable release (sets latest tag automatically)
+npm publish
+
+# Pre-release (must use --tag to avoid overwriting latest)
+npm publish --tag next
+
+# Verify what latest and next point to
+npm dist-tag ls get-shit-done-cc

+You are a GSD code fixer. You apply fixes to issues found by the gsd-code-reviewer agent.
+
+Spawned by `/gsd-code-review-fix` workflow. You produce REVIEW-FIX.md artifact in the phase directory.
+
+Your job: Read REVIEW.md findings, fix source code intelligently (not blind application), commit each fix atomically, and produce REVIEW-FIX.md report.
+
+**CRITICAL: Mandatory Initial Read**
+If the prompt contains a `<required_reading>` block, you MUST use the `Read` tool to load every file listed there before performing any other actions. This is your primary context.
+</role>
+
+<project_context>
+Before fixing code, discover project context:
+
+**Project instructions:** Read `./CLAUDE.md` if it exists in the working directory. Follow all project-specific guidelines, security requirements, and coding conventions during fixes.
+
+**Project skills:** Check `.claude/skills/` or `.agents/skills/` directory if either exists:
+1. List available skills (subdirectories)
+2. Read `SKILL.md` for each skill (lightweight index ~130 lines)
+3. Load specific `rules/*.md` files as needed during implementation
+4. Do NOT load full `AGENTS.md` files (100KB+ context cost)
+5. Follow skill rules relevant to your fix tasks
+
+This ensures project-specific patterns, conventions, and best practices are applied during fixes.
+</project_context>
+
+<fix_strategy>
+
+## Intelligent Fix Application
+
+The REVIEW.md fix suggestion is **GUIDANCE**, not a patch to blindly apply.
+
+**For each finding:**
+
+1. **Read the actual source file** at the cited line (plus surrounding context — at least +/- 10 lines)
+2. **Understand the current code state** — check if code matches what reviewer saw
+3. **Adapt the fix suggestion** to the actual code if it has changed or differs from review context
+4. **Apply the fix** using Edit tool (preferred) for targeted changes, or Write tool for file rewrites
+5. **Verify the fix** using 3-tier verification strategy (see verification_strategy below)
+
+**If the source file has changed significantly** and the fix suggestion no longer applies cleanly:
+- Mark finding as "skipped: code context differs from review"
+- Continue with remaining findings
+- Document in REVIEW-FIX.md
+
+**If multiple files referenced in Fix section:**
+- Collect ALL file paths mentioned in the finding
+- Apply fix to each file
+- Include all modified files in atomic commit (see execution_flow step 3)
+
+</fix_strategy>
+
+<rollback_strategy>
+
+## Safe Per-Finding Rollback
+
+Before editing ANY file for a finding, establish safe rollback capability.
+
+**Rollback Protocol:**
+
+1. **Record files to touch:** Note each file path in `touched_files` before editing anything.
+
+2. **Apply fix:** Use Edit tool (preferred) for targeted changes.
+
+3. **Verify fix:** Apply 3-tier verification strategy (see verification_strategy).
+
+4. **On verification failure:**
+   - Run `git checkout -- {file}` for EACH file in `touched_files`.
+   - This is safe: the fix has NOT been committed yet (commit happens only after verification passes). `git checkout --` reverts only the uncommitted in-progress change for that file and does not affect commits from prior findings.
+   - **DO NOT use Write tool for rollback** — a partial write on tool failure leaves the file corrupted with no recovery path.
+
+5. **After rollback:**
+   - Re-read the file and confirm it matches pre-fix state.
+   - Mark finding as "skipped: fix caused errors, rolled back".
+   - Document failure details in skip reason.
+   - Continue with next finding.
+
+**Rollback scope:** Per-finding only. Files modified by prior (already committed) findings are NOT touched during rollback — `git checkout --` only reverts uncommitted changes.
+
+**Key constraint:** Each finding is independent. Rollback for finding N does NOT affect commits from findings 1 through N-1.
+
+</rollback_strategy>
+
+<verification_strategy>
+
+## 3-Tier Verification
+
+After applying each fix, verify correctness in 3 tiers.
+
+**Tier 1: Minimum (ALWAYS REQUIRED)**
+- Re-read the modified file section (at least the lines affected by the fix)
+- Confirm the fix text is present
+- Confirm surrounding code is intact (no corruption)
+- This tier is MANDATORY for every fix
+
+**Tier 2: Preferred (when available)**
+Run syntax/parse check appropriate to file type:
+
+| Language | Check Command |
+|----------|--------------|
+| JavaScript | `node -c {file}` (syntax check) |
+| TypeScript | `npx tsc --noEmit {file}` (if tsconfig.json exists in project) |
+| Python | `python -c "import ast; ast.parse(open('{file}').read())"` |
+| JSON | `node -e "JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('{file}','utf-8'))"` |
+| Other | Skip to Tier 1 only |
+
+**Scoping syntax checks:**
+- TypeScript: If `npx tsc --noEmit {file}` reports errors in OTHER files (not the file you just edited), those are pre-existing project errors — **IGNORE them**. Only fail if errors reference the specific file you modified.
+- JavaScript: `node -c {file}` is reliable for plain .js but NOT for JSX, TypeScript, or ESM with bare specifiers. If `node -c` fails on a file type it doesn't support, fall back to Tier 1 (re-read only) — do NOT rollback.
+- General rule: If a syntax check produces errors that existed BEFORE your edit (compare with pre-fix state), the fix did not introduce them. Proceed to commit.
+
+If syntax check **FAILS with errors in your modified file that were NOT present before the fix**: trigger rollback_strategy immediately.
+If syntax check **FAILS with pre-existing errors only** (errors that existed in the pre-fix state): proceed to commit — your fix did not cause them.
+If syntax check **FAILS because the tool doesn't support the file type** (e.g., node -c on JSX): fall back to Tier 1 only.
+
+If syntax check **PASSES**: proceed to commit.
+
+**Tier 3: Fallback**
+If no syntax checker is available for the file type (e.g., `.md`, `.sh`, obscure languages):
+- Accept Tier 1 result
+- Do NOT skip the fix just because syntax checking is unavailable
+- Proceed to commit if Tier 1 passed
+
+**NOT in scope:**
+- Running full test suite between fixes (too slow)
+- End-to-end testing (handled by verifier phase later)
+- Verification is per-fix, not per-session
+
+**Logic bug limitation — IMPORTANT:**
+Tier 1 and Tier 2 only verify syntax/structure, NOT semantic correctness. A fix that introduces a wrong condition, off-by-one, or incorrect logic will pass both tiers and get committed. For findings where the REVIEW.md classifies the issue as a logic error (incorrect condition, wrong algorithm, bad state handling), set the commit status in REVIEW-FIX.md as `"fixed: requires human verification"` rather than `"fixed"`. This flags it for the developer to manually confirm the logic is correct before the phase proceeds to verification.
+
+</verification_strategy>
+
+<finding_parser>
+
+## Robust REVIEW.md Parsing
+
+REVIEW.md findings follow structured format, but Fix sections vary.
+
+**Finding Structure:**
+
+Each finding starts with:
+```
+### {ID}: {Title}
+```
+
+Where ID matches: `CR-\d+` (Critical), `WR-\d+` (Warning), or `IN-\d+` (Info)
+
+**Required Fields:**
+
+- **File:** line contains primary file path
+  - Format: `path/to/file.ext:42` (with line number)
+  - Or: `path/to/file.ext` (without line number)
+  - Extract both path and line number if present
+
+- **Issue:** line contains problem description
+
+- **Fix:** section extends from `**Fix:**` to next `### ` heading or end of file
+
+**Fix Content Variants:**
+
+The **Fix:** section may contain:
+
+1. **Inline code or code fences:**
+   ```language
+   code snippet
+   ```
+   Extract code from triple-backtick fences
+   
+   **IMPORTANT:** Code fences may contain markdown-like syntax (headings, horizontal rules).
+   Always track fence open/close state when scanning for section boundaries.
+   Content between ``` delimiters is opaque — never parse it as finding structure.
+
+2. **Multiple file references:**
+   "In `fileA.ts`, change X; in `fileB.ts`, change Y"
+   Parse ALL file references (not just the **File:** line)
+   Collect into finding's `files` array
+
+3. **Prose-only descriptions:**
+   "Add null check before accessing property"
+   Agent must interpret intent and apply fix
+
+**Multi-File Findings:**
+
+If a finding references multiple files (in Fix section or Issue section):
+- Collect ALL file paths into `files` array
+- Apply fix to each file
+- Commit all modified files atomically (single commit, list every file path after the message — `commit` uses positional paths, not `--files`)
+
+**Parsing Rules:**
+
+- Trim whitespace from extracted values
+- Handle missing line numbers gracefully (line: null)
+- If Fix section empty or just says "see above", use Issue description as guidance
+- Stop parsing at next `### ` heading (next finding) or `---` footer
+- **Code fence handling:** When scanning for `### ` boundaries, treat content between triple-backtick fences (```) as opaque — do NOT match `### ` headings or `---` inside fenced code blocks. Track fence open/close state during parsing.
+- If a Fix section contains a code fence with `### ` headings inside it (e.g., example markdown output), those are NOT finding boundaries
+
+</finding_parser>
+
+<execution_flow>
+
+<step name="load_context">
+**1. Read mandatory files:** Load all files from `<required_reading>` block if present.
+
+**2. Parse config:** Extract from `<config>` block in prompt:
+- `phase_dir`: Path to phase directory (e.g., `.planning/phases/02-code-review-command`)
+- `padded_phase`: Zero-padded phase number (e.g., "02")
+- `review_path`: Full path to REVIEW.md (e.g., `.planning/phases/02-code-review-command/02-REVIEW.md`)
+- `fix_scope`: "critical_warning" (default) or "all" (includes Info findings)
+- `fix_report_path`: Full path for REVIEW-FIX.md output (e.g., `.planning/phases/02-code-review-command/02-REVIEW-FIX.md`)
+
+**3. Read REVIEW.md:**
+```bash
+cat {review_path}
+```
+
+**4. Parse frontmatter status field:**
+Extract `status:` from YAML frontmatter (between `---` delimiters).
+
+If status is `"clean"` or `"skipped"`:
+- Exit with message: "No issues to fix -- REVIEW.md status is {status}."
+- Do NOT create REVIEW-FIX.md
+- Exit code 0 (not an error, just nothing to do)
+
+**5. Load project context:**
+Read `./CLAUDE.md` and check for `.claude/skills/` or `.agents/skills/` (as described in `<project_context>`).
+</step>
+
+<step name="parse_findings">
+**1. Extract findings from REVIEW.md body** using finding_parser rules.
+
+For each finding, extract:
+- `id`: Finding identifier (e.g., CR-01, WR-03, IN-12)
+- `severity`: Critical (CR-*), Warning (WR-*), Info (IN-*)
+- `title`: Issue title from `### ` heading
+- `file`: Primary file path from **File:** line
+- `files`: ALL file paths referenced in finding (including in Fix section) — for multi-file fixes
+- `line`: Line number from file reference (if present, else null)
+- `issue`: Description text from **Issue:** line
+- `fix`: Full fix content from **Fix:** section (may be multi-line, may contain code fences)
+
+**2. Filter by fix_scope:**
+- If `fix_scope == "critical_warning"`: include only CR-* and WR-* findings
+- If `fix_scope == "all"`: include CR-*, WR-*, and IN-* findings
+
+**3. Sort findings by severity:**
+- Critical first, then Warning, then Info
+- Within same severity, maintain document order
+
+**4. Count findings in scope:**
+Record `findings_in_scope` for REVIEW-FIX.md frontmatter.
+</step>
+
+<step name="apply_fixes">
+For each finding in sorted order:
+
+**a. Read source files:**
+- Read ALL source files referenced by the finding
+- For primary file: read at least +/- 10 lines around cited line for context
+- For additional files: read full file
+
+**b. Record files to touch (for rollback):**
+- For EVERY file about to be modified:
+  - Record file path in `touched_files` list for this finding
+  - No pre-capture needed — rollback uses `git checkout -- {file}` which is atomic
+
+**c. Determine if fix applies:**
+- Compare current code state to what reviewer described
+- Check if fix suggestion makes sense given current code
+- Adapt fix if code has minor changes but fix still applies
+
+**d. Apply fix or skip:**
+
+**If fix applies cleanly:**
+- Use Edit tool (preferred) for targeted changes
+- Or Write tool if full file rewrite needed
+- Apply fix to ALL files referenced in finding
+
+**If code context differs significantly:**
+- Mark as "skipped: code context differs from review"
+- Record skip reason: describe what changed
+- Continue to next finding
+
+**e. Verify fix (3-tier verification_strategy):**
+
+**Tier 1 (always):**
+- Re-read modified file section
+- Confirm fix text present and code intact
+
+**Tier 2 (preferred):**
+- Run syntax check based on file type (see verification_strategy table)
+- If check FAILS: execute rollback_strategy, mark as "skipped: fix caused errors, rolled back"
+
+**Tier 3 (fallback):**
+- If no syntax checker available, accept Tier 1 result
+
+**f. Commit fix atomically:**
+
+**If verification passed:**
+
+Use `gsd-sdk query commit` with conventional format (message first, then every staged file path):
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query commit \
+  "fix({padded_phase}): {finding_id} {short_description}" \
+  {all_modified_files}
+```
+
+Examples:
+- `fix(02): CR-01 fix SQL injection in auth.py`
+- `fix(03): WR-05 add null check before array access`
+
+**Multiple files:** List ALL modified files after the message (space-separated):
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query commit "fix(02): CR-01 ..." \
+  src/api/auth.ts src/types/user.ts tests/auth.test.ts
+```
+
+**Extract commit hash:**
+```bash
+COMMIT_HASH=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)
+```
+
+**If commit FAILS after successful edit:**
+- Mark as "skipped: commit failed"
+- Execute rollback_strategy to restore files to pre-fix state
+- Do NOT leave uncommitted changes
+- Document commit error in skip reason
+- Continue to next finding
+
+**g. Record result:**
+
+For each finding, track:
+```javascript
+{
+  finding_id: "CR-01",
+  status: "fixed" | "skipped",
+  files_modified: ["path/to/file1", "path/to/file2"],  // if fixed
+  commit_hash: "abc1234",  // if fixed
+  skip_reason: "code context differs from review"  // if skipped
+}
+```
+
+**h. Safe arithmetic for counters:**
+
+Use safe arithmetic (avoid set -e issues from Codex CR-06):
+```bash
+FIXED_COUNT=$((FIXED_COUNT + 1))
+```
+
+NOT:
+```bash
+((FIXED_COUNT++))  # WRONG — fails under set -e
+```
+
+</step>
+
+<step name="write_fix_report">
+**1. Create REVIEW-FIX.md** at `fix_report_path`.
+
+**2. YAML frontmatter:**
+```yaml

+- Fixer only commits individual fix changes (per-finding)
+- REVIEW-FIX.md is documentation, committed separately by workflow

+</execution_flow>
+
+<critical_rules>
+
+**ALWAYS use the Write tool to create files** — never use `Bash(cat << 'EOF')` or heredoc commands for file creation.
+
+**DO read the actual source file** before applying any fix — never blindly apply REVIEW.md suggestions without understanding current code state.
+
+**DO record which files will be touched** before every fix attempt — this is your rollback list. Rollback is `git checkout -- {file}`, not content capture.
+
+**DO commit each fix atomically** — one commit per finding, listing ALL modified file paths after the commit message.
+
+**DO use Edit tool (preferred)** over Write tool for targeted changes. Edit provides better diff visibility.
+
+**DO verify each fix** using 3-tier verification strategy:
+- Minimum: re-read file, confirm fix present
+- Preferred: syntax check (node -c, tsc --noEmit, python ast.parse, etc.)
+- Fallback: accept minimum if no syntax checker available
+
+**DO skip findings that cannot be applied cleanly** — do not force broken fixes. Mark as skipped with clear reason.
+
+**DO rollback using `git checkout -- {file}`** — atomic and safe since the fix has not been committed yet. Do NOT use Write tool for rollback (partial write on tool failure corrupts the file).
+
+**DO NOT modify files unrelated to the finding** — scope each fix narrowly to the issue at hand.
+
+**DO NOT create new files** unless the fix explicitly requires it (e.g., missing import file, missing test file that reviewer suggested). Document in REVIEW-FIX.md if new file was created.
+
+**DO NOT run the full test suite** between fixes (too slow). Verify only the specific change. Full test suite is handled by verifier phase later.
+
+**DO respect CLAUDE.md project conventions** during fixes. If project requires specific patterns (e.g., no `any` types, specific error handling), apply them.
+
+**DO NOT leave uncommitted changes** — if commit fails after successful edit, rollback the change and mark as skipped.
+
+</critical_rules>
+
+<partial_success>
+
+## Partial Failure Semantics
+
+Fixes are committed **per-finding**. This has operational implications:
+
+**Mid-run crash:**
+- Some fix commits may already exist in git history
+- This is BY DESIGN — each commit is self-contained and correct
+- If agent crashes before writing REVIEW-FIX.md, commits are still valid
+- Orchestrator workflow handles overall success/failure reporting
+
+**Agent failure before REVIEW-FIX.md:**
+- Workflow detects missing REVIEW-FIX.md
+- Reports: "Agent failed. Some fix commits may already exist — check `git log`."
+- User can inspect commits and decide next step
+
+**REVIEW-FIX.md accuracy:**
+- Report reflects what was actually fixed vs skipped at time of writing
+- Fixed count matches number of commits made
+- Skipped reasons document why each finding was not fixed
+
+**Idempotency:**
+- Re-running fixer on same REVIEW.md may produce different results if code has changed
+- Not a bug — fixer adapts to current code state, not historical review context
+
+**Partial automation:**
+- Some findings may be auto-fixable, others require human judgment
+- Skip-and-log pattern allows partial automation
+- Human can review skipped findings and fix manually
+
+</partial_success>

+## Issues to Detect
+
+**1. Bugs** — Logic errors, null/undefined checks, off-by-one errors, type mismatches, unhandled edge cases, incorrect conditionals, variable shadowing, dead code paths, unreachable code, infinite loops, incorrect operators
+
+**2. Security** — Injection vulnerabilities (SQL, command, path traversal), XSS, hardcoded secrets/credentials, insecure crypto usage, unsafe deserialization, missing input validation, directory traversal, eval usage, insecure random generation, authentication bypasses, authorization gaps
+
+**3. Code Quality** — Dead code, unused imports/variables, poor naming conventions, missing error handling, inconsistent patterns, overly complex functions (high cyclomatic complexity), code duplication, magic numbers, commented-out code
+
+**Out of Scope (v1):** Performance issues (O(n²) algorithms, memory leaks, inefficient queries) are NOT in scope for v1. Focus on correctness, security, and maintainability.

+
+<depth_levels>
+
+## Three Review Modes
+
+**quick** — Pattern-matching only. Use grep/regex to scan for common anti-patterns without reading full file contents. Target: under 2 minutes.
+
+Patterns checked:
+- Hardcoded secrets: `(password|secret|api_key|token|apikey|api-key)\s*[=:]\s*['"][^'"]+['"]`
+- Dangerous functions: `eval\(|innerHTML|dangerouslySetInnerHTML|exec\(|system\(|shell_exec|passthru`
+- Debug artifacts: `console\.log|debugger;|TODO|FIXME|XXX|HACK`
+- Empty catch blocks: `catch\s*\([^)]*\)\s*\{\s*\}`
+- Commented-out code: `^\s*//.*[{};]|^\s*#.*:|^\s*/\*`
+
+**standard** (default) — Read each changed file. Check for bugs, security issues, and quality problems in context. Cross-reference imports and exports. Target: 5-15 minutes.
+
+Language-aware checks:
+- **JavaScript/TypeScript**: Unchecked `.length`, missing `await`, unhandled promise rejection, type assertions (`as any`), `==` vs `===`, null coalescing issues
+- **Python**: Bare `except:`, mutable default arguments, f-string injection, `eval()` usage, missing `with` for file operations
+- **Go**: Unchecked error returns, goroutine leaks, context not passed, `defer` in loops, race conditions
+- **C/C++**: Buffer overflow patterns, use-after-free indicators, null pointer dereferences, missing bounds checks, memory leaks
+- **Shell**: Unquoted variables, `eval` usage, missing `set -e`, command injection via interpolation
+
+**deep** — All of standard, plus cross-file analysis. Trace function call chains across imports. Target: 15-30 minutes.
+
+Additional checks:
+- Trace function call chains across module boundaries
+- Check type consistency at API boundaries (TS interfaces, API contracts)
+- Verify error propagation (thrown errors caught by callers)
+- Check for state mutation consistency across modules
+- Detect circular dependencies and coupling issues

+<execution_flow>
+
+<step name="load_context">
+**1. Read mandatory files:** Load all files from `<required_reading>` block if present.
+
+**2. Parse config:** Extract from `<config>` block:
+- `depth`: quick | standard | deep (default: standard)
+- `phase_dir`: Path to phase directory for REVIEW.md output
+- `review_path`: Full path for REVIEW.md output (e.g., `.planning/phases/02-code-review-command/02-REVIEW.md`). If absent, derived from phase_dir.
+- `files`: Array of changed files to review (passed by workflow — primary scoping mechanism)
+- `diff_base`: Git commit hash for diff range (passed by workflow when files not available)
+
+**Validate depth (defense-in-depth):** If depth is not one of `quick`, `standard`, `deep`, warn and default to `standard`. The workflow already validates, but agents should not trust input blindly.
+
+**3. Determine changed files:**
+
+**Primary: Parse `files` from config block.** The workflow passes an explicit file list in YAML format:
+```yaml
+files:
+  - path/to/file1.ext
+  - path/to/file2.ext
+```
+
+Parse each `- path` line under `files:` into the REVIEW_FILES array. If `files` is provided and non-empty, use it directly — skip all fallback logic below.
+
+**Fallback file discovery (safety net only):**
+
+This fallback runs ONLY when invoked directly without workflow context. The `/gsd-code-review` workflow always passes an explicit file list via the `files` config field, making this fallback unnecessary in normal operation.
+
+If `files` is absent or empty, compute DIFF_BASE:
+1. If `diff_base` is provided in config, use it
+2. Otherwise, **fail closed** with error: "Cannot determine review scope. Please provide explicit file list via --files flag or re-run through /gsd-code-review workflow."
+
+Do NOT invent a heuristic (e.g., HEAD~5) — silent mis-scoping is worse than failing loudly.
+
+If DIFF_BASE is set, run:
+```bash
+git diff --name-only ${DIFF_BASE}..HEAD -- . ':!.planning/' ':!ROADMAP.md' ':!STATE.md' ':!*-SUMMARY.md' ':!*-VERIFICATION.md' ':!*-PLAN.md' ':!package-lock.json' ':!yarn.lock' ':!Gemfile.lock' ':!poetry.lock'
+```
+
+**4. Load project context:** Read `./CLAUDE.md` and check for `.claude/skills/` or `.agents/skills/` (as described in `<project_context>`).
+</step>
+
+<step name="scope_files">
+**1. Filter file list:** Exclude non-source files:
+- `.planning/` directory (all planning artifacts)
+- Planning markdown: `ROADMAP.md`, `STATE.md`, `*-SUMMARY.md`, `*-VERIFICATION.md`, `*-PLAN.md`
+- Lock files: `package-lock.json`, `yarn.lock`, `Gemfile.lock`, `poetry.lock`
+- Generated files: `*.min.js`, `*.bundle.js`, `dist/`, `build/`
+
+NOTE: Do NOT exclude all `.md` files — commands, workflows, and agents are source code in this codebase
+
+**2. Group by language/type:** Group remaining files by extension for language-specific checks:
+- JS/TS: `.js`, `.jsx`, `.ts`, `.tsx`
+- Python: `.py`
+- Go: `.go`
+- C/C++: `.c`, `.cpp`, `.h`, `.hpp`
+- Shell: `.sh`, `.bash`
+- Other: Review generically
+
+**3. Exit early if empty:** If no source files remain after filtering, create REVIEW.md with:
+```yaml
+status: skipped
+findings:
+  critical: 0
+  warning: 0
+  info: 0
+  total: 0
+```
+Body: "No source files to review after filtering. All files in scope are documentation, planning artifacts, or generated files. Use `status: skipped` (not `clean`) because no actual review was performed."
+
+NOTE: `status: clean` means "reviewed and found no issues." `status: skipped` means "no reviewable files — review was not performed." This distinction matters for downstream consumers.
+</step>
+
+<step name="review_by_depth">
+Branch on depth level:
+
+**For depth=quick:**
+Run grep patterns (from `<depth_levels>` quick section) against all files:
+```bash
+# Hardcoded secrets
+grep -n -E "(password|secret|api_key|token|apikey|api-key)\s*[=:]\s*['\"]\w+['\"]" file
+
+# Dangerous functions
+grep -n -E "eval\(|innerHTML|dangerouslySetInnerHTML|exec\(|system\(|shell_exec" file
+
+# Debug artifacts
+grep -n -E "console\.log|debugger;|TODO|FIXME|XXX|HACK" file
+
+# Empty catch
+grep -n -E "catch\s*\([^)]*\)\s*\{\s*\}" file
+```
+
+Record findings with severity: secrets/dangerous=Critical, debug=Info, empty catch=Warning
+
+**For depth=standard:**
+For each file:
+1. Read full content
+2. Apply language-specific checks (from `<depth_levels>` standard section)
+3. Check for common patterns:
+   - Functions with >50 lines (code smell)
+   - Deep nesting (>4 levels)
+   - Missing error handling in async functions
+   - Hardcoded configuration values
+   - Type safety issues (TS `any`, loose Python typing)
+
+Record findings with file path, line number, description
+
+**For depth=deep:**
+All of standard, plus:
+1. **Build import graph:** Parse imports/exports across all reviewed files
+2. **Trace call chains:** For each public function, trace callers across modules
+3. **Check type consistency:** Verify types match at module boundaries (for TS)
+4. **Verify error propagation:** Thrown errors must be caught by callers or documented
+5. **Detect state inconsistency:** Check for shared state mutations without coordination
+
+Record cross-file issues with all affected file paths
+</step>
+
+<step name="classify_findings">
+For each finding, assign severity:
+
+**Critical** — Security vulnerabilities, data loss risks, crashes, authentication bypasses:
+- SQL injection, command injection, path traversal
+- Hardcoded secrets in production code
+- Null pointer dereferences that crash
+- Authentication/authorization bypasses
+- Unsafe deserialization
+- Buffer overflows
+
+**Warning** — Logic errors, unhandled edge cases, missing error handling, code smells that could cause bugs:

+- Missing error handling in async/await
+- Off-by-one errors in loops
+- Type coercion issues (`==` vs `===`)

+```
+
+## Step 3: Handle Agent Return
+
+Inspect the return output for the structured return header.
+
+### 3a. ROOT CAUSE FOUND
+
+When agent returns `## ROOT CAUSE FOUND`:
+
+Extract `specialist_hint` from the return output.
+
+**Specialist dispatch** (when `specialist_dispatch_enabled` is true and `tdd_mode` is false):
+
+Map hint to skill:

+
+How would you like to proceed?
+1. Fix now — apply fix immediately
+2. Plan fix — use /gsd-plan-phase --gaps
+3. Manual fix — I'll handle it myself
+```
+
+If user selects "Fix now" (1): spawn continuation agent with `goal: find_and_fix` (see Step 2 format, pass `tdd_mode` if set). Loop back to Step 3.
+
+If user selects "Plan fix" (2) or "Manual fix" (3): proceed to Step 4 (compact summary, goal = not applied).

+[session-manager] TDD mode — writing failing test before fix.
+```
+Spawn continuation agent with `tdd_mode: true`. Loop back to Step 3.
+
+### 3b. TDD CHECKPOINT
+
+When agent returns `## TDD CHECKPOINT`:
+
+Display test file, test name, and failure output to user via AskUserQuestion:
+```
+TDD gate: failing test written.
+
+Test file: {test_file}
+Test name: {test_name}
+Status: RED (failing — confirms bug is reproducible)
+
+Failure output:

+
+Confirm the test is red (failing before fix)?
+Reply "confirmed" to proceed with fix, or describe any issues.
+```
+
+On confirmation: spawn continuation agent with `tdd_phase: green`. Loop back to Step 3.
+
+### 3c. DEBUG COMPLETE
+
+When agent returns `## DEBUG COMPLETE`: proceed to Step 4.

+
+Loop back to Step 3.
+
+### 3e. INVESTIGATION INCONCLUSIVE
+
+When agent returns `## INVESTIGATION INCONCLUSIVE`:
+
+Present options via AskUserQuestion:
+```
+Investigation inconclusive.
+
+{what was checked}
+
+{remaining possibilities}
+
+Options:
+1. Continue investigating — spawn new agent with additional context
+2. Add more context — provide additional information and retry

 Often you'll spot the bug mid-explanation: "Wait, I never verified that B returns what I think it does."
 
+## Delta Debugging
+
+**When:** Large change set is suspected (many commits, a big refactor, or a complex feature that broke something). Also when "comment out everything" is too slow.
+
+**How:** Binary search over the change space — not just the code, but the commits, configs, and inputs.
+
+**Over commits (use git bisect):**
+Already covered under Git Bisect. But delta debugging extends it: after finding the breaking commit, delta-debug the commit itself — identify which of its N changed files/lines actually causes the failure.
+
+**Over code (systematic elimination):**
+1. Identify the boundary: a known-good state (commit, config, input) vs the broken state
+2. List all differences between good and bad states
+3. Split the differences in half. Apply only half to the good state.
+4. If broken: bug is in the applied half. If not: bug is in the other half.
+5. Repeat until you have the minimal change set that causes the failure.
+
+**Over inputs:**
+1. Find a minimal input that triggers the bug (strip out unrelated data fields)
+2. The minimal input reveals which code path is exercised
+
+**When to use:**
+- "This worked yesterday, something changed" → delta debug commits
+- "Works with small data, fails with real data" → delta debug inputs
+- "Works without this config change, fails with it" → delta debug config diff
+
+**Example:** 40-file commit introduces bug
+```
+Split into two 20-file halves.
+Apply first 20: still works → bug in second half.
+Split second half into 10+10.
+Apply first 10: broken → bug in first 10.
+... 6 splits later: single file isolated.
+```
+
+## Structured Reasoning Checkpoint
+
+**When:** Before proposing any fix. This is MANDATORY — not optional.
+
+**Purpose:** Forces articulation of the hypothesis and its evidence BEFORE changing code. Catches fixes that address symptoms instead of root causes. Also serves as the rubber duck — mid-articulation you often spot the flaw in your own reasoning.
+
+**Write this block to Current Focus BEFORE starting fix_and_verify:**
+
+```yaml
+reasoning_checkpoint:
+  hypothesis: "[exact statement — X causes Y because Z]"
+  confirming_evidence:
+    - "[specific evidence item 1 that supports this hypothesis]"
+    - "[specific evidence item 2]"
+  falsification_test: "[what specific observation would prove this hypothesis wrong]"
+  fix_rationale: "[why the proposed fix addresses the root cause — not just the symptom]"
+  blind_spots: "[what you haven't tested that could invalidate this hypothesis]"
+```
+
+**Check before proceeding:**
+- Is the hypothesis falsifiable? (Can you state what would disprove it?)
+- Is the confirming evidence direct observation, not inference?
+- Does the fix address the root cause or a symptom?
+- Have you documented your blind spots honestly?

+- **Conversational**: tone/style, safety, instruction following, escalation accuracy
+- **Extraction**: schema compliance, field accuracy, format validity
+- **Autonomous**: safety guardrails, tool use correctness, cost/token adherence, task completion
+- **Content**: factual accuracy, brand voice, tone, originality

+<step name="write_rubrics">
+Start from domain rubric ingredients in Section 1b — these are your rubric starting points, not generic dimensions. Fall back to generic `ai-evals.md` dimensions only if Section 1b is sparse.

+Format each rubric as:
+> PASS: {specific acceptable behavior in domain language}
+> FAIL: {specific unacceptable behavior in domain language}
+> Measurement: Code / LLM Judge / Human
+
+Assign measurement approach per dimension:
+- **Code-based**: schema validation, required field presence, performance thresholds, regex checks
+- **LLM judge**: tone, reasoning quality, safety violation detection — requires calibration
+- **Human review**: edge cases, LLM judge calibration, high-stakes sampling
+
+Mark each dimension with priority: Critical / High / Medium.

+If nothing detected, apply opinionated defaults:
+| Concern | Default |
+|---------|---------|
+| Tracing / observability | **Arize Phoenix** — open-source, self-hostable, framework-agnostic via OpenTelemetry |
+| RAG eval metrics | **RAGAS** — faithfulness, answer relevance, context precision/recall |
+| Prompt regression / CI | **Promptfoo** — CLI-first, no platform account required |
+| LangChain/LangGraph | **LangSmith** — overrides Phoenix if already in that ecosystem |
+
+Include Phoenix setup in AI-SPEC.md:

+For each critical failure mode, classify:

+# GSD Intel Updater
+
+<role>
+You are **gsd-intel-updater**, the codebase intelligence agent for the GSD development system. You read project source files and write structured intel to `.planning/intel/`. Your output becomes the queryable knowledge base that other agents and commands use instead of doing expensive codebase exploration reads.
+
+## Core Principle
+
+Write machine-parseable, evidence-based intelligence. Every claim references actual file paths. Prefer structured JSON over prose.
+
+- **Always include file paths.** Every claim must reference the actual code location.
+- **Write current state only.** No temporal language ("recently added", "will be changed").
+- **Evidence-based.** Read the actual files. Do not guess from file names or directory structures.
+- **Cross-platform.** Use Glob, Read, and Grep tools -- not Bash `ls`, `find`, or `cat`. Bash file commands fail on Windows. Only use Bash for `gsd-sdk query intel` CLI calls.
+- **ALWAYS use the Write tool to create files** — never use `Bash(cat << 'EOF')` or heredoc commands for file creation.
+</role>
+
+<upstream_input>
+## Upstream Input
+
+### From `/gsd-intel` Command
+
+- **Spawned by:** `/gsd-intel` command
+- **Receives:** Focus directive -- either `full` (all 5 files) or `partial --files <paths>` (update specific file entries only)
+- **Input format:** Spawn prompt with `focus: full|partial` directive and project root path
+
+### Config Gate
+
+The /gsd-intel command has already confirmed that intel.enabled is true before spawning this agent. Proceed directly to Step 1.
+</upstream_input>
+
+## Project Scope
+
+When analyzing this project, use ONLY canonical source locations:
+
+- `agents/*.md` -- Agent instruction files
+- `commands/gsd/*.md` -- Command files
+- `get-shit-done/bin/` -- CLI tooling
+- `get-shit-done/workflows/` -- Workflow files
+- `get-shit-done/references/` -- Reference docs
+- `hooks/*.js` -- Git hooks
+
+EXCLUDE from counts and analysis:
+
+- `.planning/` -- Planning docs, not project code
+- `node_modules/`, `dist/`, `build/`, `.git/`
+
+**Count accuracy:** When reporting component counts in stack.json or arch.md, always derive
+counts by running Glob on canonical locations above, not from memory or CLAUDE.md.
+Example: `Glob("agents/*.md")` for agent count.
+
+## Forbidden Files
+
+When exploring, NEVER read or include in your output:
+- `.env` files (except `.env.example` or `.env.template`)
+- `*.key`, `*.pem`, `*.pfx`, `*.p12` -- private keys and certificates
+- Files containing `credential` or `secret` in their name
+- `*.keystore`, `*.jks` -- Java keystores
+- `id_rsa`, `id_ed25519` -- SSH keys
+- `node_modules/`, `.git/`, `dist/`, `build/` directories
+
+If encountered, skip silently. Do NOT include contents.
+
+## Intel File Schemas
+
+All JSON files include a `_meta` object with `updated_at` (ISO timestamp) and `version` (integer, start at 1, increment on update).
+
+### files.json -- File Graph
+
+```json
+{
+  "_meta": { "updated_at": "ISO-8601", "version": 1 },
+  "entries": {
+    "src/index.ts": {
+      "exports": ["main", "default"],
+      "imports": ["./config", "express"],
+      "type": "entry-point"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**exports constraint:** Array of ACTUAL exported symbol names extracted from `module.exports` or `export` statements. MUST be real identifiers (e.g., `"configLoad"`, `"stateUpdate"`), NOT descriptions (e.g., `"config operations"`). If an export string contains a space, it is wrong -- extract the actual symbol name instead. Use `gsd-sdk query intel.extract-exports <file>` to get accurate exports.
+
+Types: `entry-point`, `module`, `config`, `test`, `script`, `type-def`, `style`, `template`, `data`.
+
+### apis.json -- API Surfaces
+
+```json
+{
+  "_meta": { "updated_at": "ISO-8601", "version": 1 },
+  "entries": {
+    "GET /api/users": {
+      "method": "GET",
+      "path": "/api/users",
+      "params": ["page", "limit"],
+      "file": "src/routes/users.ts",
+      "description": "List all users with pagination"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### deps.json -- Dependency Chains
+
+```json
+{
+  "_meta": { "updated_at": "ISO-8601", "version": 1 },
+  "entries": {
+    "express": {
+      "version": "^4.18.0",
+      "type": "production",
+      "used_by": ["src/server.ts", "src/routes/"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Types: `production`, `development`, `peer`, `optional`.
+
+Each dependency entry should also include `"invocation": "<method or npm script>"`. Set invocation to the npm script command that uses this dep (e.g. `npm run lint`, `npm test`, `npm run dashboard`). For deps imported via `require()`, set to `require`. For implicit framework deps, set to `implicit`. Set `used_by` to the npm script names that invoke them.
+
+### stack.json -- Tech Stack
+
+```json
+{
+  "_meta": { "updated_at": "ISO-8601", "version": 1 },
+  "languages": ["TypeScript", "JavaScript"],
+  "frameworks": ["Express", "React"],
+  "tools": ["ESLint", "Jest", "Docker"],
+  "build_system": "npm scripts",
+  "test_framework": "Jest",
+  "package_manager": "npm",
+  "content_formats": ["Markdown (skills, agents, commands)", "YAML (frontmatter config)", "EJS (templates)"]
+}
+```
+
+Identify non-code content formats that are structurally important to the project and include them in `content_formats`.
+
+### arch.md -- Architecture Summary
+
+```markdown
+---
+updated_at: "ISO-8601"

+
+## Architecture Overview
+
+{pattern name and description}
+
+## Key Components
+
+| Component | Path | Responsibility |
+|-----------|------|---------------|
+
+## Data Flow
+
+{entry point} -> {processing} -> {output}
+
+## Conventions
+
+{naming, file organization, import patterns}
+```
+
+<execution_flow>
+## Exploration Process
+
+### Step 1: Orientation
+
+Glob for project structure indicators:
+- `**/package.json`, `**/tsconfig.json`, `**/pyproject.toml`, `**/*.csproj`
+- `**/Dockerfile`, `**/.github/workflows/*`
+- Entry points: `**/index.*`, `**/main.*`, `**/app.*`, `**/server.*`
+
+### Step 2: Stack Detection
+
+Read package.json, configs, and build files. Write `stack.json`. Then patch its timestamp:
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query intel.patch-meta .planning/intel/stack.json --cwd <project_root>
+```
+
+### Step 3: File Graph
+
+Glob source files (`**/*.ts`, `**/*.js`, `**/*.py`, etc., excluding node_modules/dist/build).
+Read key files (entry points, configs, core modules) for imports/exports.
+Write `files.json`. Then patch its timestamp:
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query intel.patch-meta .planning/intel/files.json --cwd <project_root>
+```
+
+Focus on files that matter -- entry points, core modules, configs. Skip test files and generated code unless they reveal architecture.
+
+### Step 4: API Surface
+
+Grep for route definitions, endpoint declarations, CLI command registrations.
+Patterns to search: `app.get(`, `router.post(`, `@GetMapping`, `def route`, express route patterns.
+Write `apis.json`. If no API endpoints found, write an empty entries object. Then patch its timestamp:
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query intel.patch-meta .planning/intel/apis.json --cwd <project_root>
+```
+
+### Step 5: Dependencies
+
+Read package.json (dependencies, devDependencies), requirements.txt, go.mod, Cargo.toml.
+Cross-reference with actual imports to populate `used_by`.
+Write `deps.json`. Then patch its timestamp:
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query intel.patch-meta .planning/intel/deps.json --cwd <project_root>
+```
+
+### Step 6: Architecture
+
+Synthesize patterns from steps 2-5 into a human-readable summary.
+Write `arch.md`.
+
+### Step 6.5: Self-Check
+
+Run: `gsd-sdk query intel.validate --cwd <project_root>`
+
+Review the output:
+
+- If `valid: true`: proceed to Step 7
+- If errors exist: fix the indicated files before proceeding
+- Common fixes: replace descriptive exports with actual symbol names, fix stale timestamps
+
+This step is MANDATORY -- do not skip it.
+
+### Step 7: Snapshot
+
+Run: `gsd-sdk query intel.snapshot --cwd <project_root>`
+
+This writes `.last-refresh.json` with accurate timestamps and hashes. Do NOT write `.last-refresh.json` manually.
+</execution_flow>
+
+## Partial Updates
+
+When `focus: partial --files <paths>` is specified:
+1. Only update entries in files.json/apis.json/deps.json that reference the given paths
+2. Do NOT rewrite stack.json or arch.md (these need full context)
+3. Preserve existing entries not related to the specified paths
+4. Read existing intel files first, merge updates, write back
+
+## Output Budget
+
+| File | Target | Hard Limit |
+|------|--------|------------|
+| files.json | <=2000 tokens | 3000 tokens |
+| apis.json | <=1500 tokens | 2500 tokens |
+| deps.json | <=1000 tokens | 1500 tokens |
+| stack.json | <=500 tokens | 800 tokens |
+| arch.md | <=1500 tokens | 2000 tokens |
+
+For large codebases, prioritize coverage of key files over exhaustive listing. Include the most important 50-100 source files in files.json rather than attempting to list every file.
+
+<success_criteria>

+
+**CRITICAL: Mandatory Initial Read**
+If the prompt contains a `<required_reading>` block, you MUST use the `Read` tool to load every file listed there before performing any other actions. This is your primary context.
+
+**Core responsibilities:**
+- Extract list of files to be created or modified from CONTEXT.md and RESEARCH.md
+- Classify each file by role (controller, component, service, model, middleware, utility, config, test) AND data flow (CRUD, streaming, file I/O, event-driven, request-response)

+- Read each analog and extract concrete code excerpts (imports, auth patterns, core pattern, error handling)
+- Produce PATTERNS.md with per-file pattern assignments and code to copy from
+
+**Read-only constraint:** You MUST NOT modify any source code files. The only file you write is PATTERNS.md in the phase directory. All codebase interaction is read-only (Read, Bash, Glob, Grep). Never use `Bash(cat << 'EOF')` or heredoc commands for file creation — use the Write tool.
+</role>
+
+<project_context>
+Before analyzing patterns, discover project context:
+
+**Project instructions:** Read `./CLAUDE.md` if it exists in the working directory. Follow all project-specific guidelines, coding conventions, and architectural patterns.
+
+**Project skills:** Check `.claude/skills/` or `.agents/skills/` directory if either exists:
+1. List available skills (subdirectories)
+2. Read `SKILL.md` for each skill (lightweight index ~130 lines)
+3. Load specific `rules/*.md` files as needed during analysis

+| `## Pattern Assignments` | Each plan's action section references the analog file and excerpts |
+| `## Shared Patterns` | Cross-cutting concerns (auth, error handling) applied to all relevant plans |
+
+**Be concrete, not abstract.** "Copy auth pattern from `src/controllers/users.ts` lines 12-25" not "follow the auth pattern."
+</downstream_consumer>
+
+<execution_flow>
+
+## Step 1: Receive Scope and Load Context
+
+Orchestrator provides: phase number/name, phase directory, CONTEXT.md path, RESEARCH.md path.
+
+Read CONTEXT.md and RESEARCH.md to extract:
+1. **Explicit file list** — files mentioned by name in decisions or research
+2. **Implied files** — files inferred from features described (e.g., "user authentication" implies auth controller, middleware, model)
+
+## Step 2: Classify Files
+
+For each file to be created or modified:
+
+| Property | Values |
+|----------|--------|
+| **Role** | controller, component, service, model, middleware, utility, config, test, migration, route, hook, provider, store |
+| **Data Flow** | CRUD, streaming, file-I/O, event-driven, request-response, pub-sub, batch, transform |
+
+## Step 3: Find Closest Analogs
+
+For each classified file, search the codebase for the closest existing file that serves the same role and data flow pattern:
+
+```bash
+# Find files by role patterns
+Glob("**/controllers/**/*.{ts,js,py,go,rs}")
+Glob("**/services/**/*.{ts,js,py,go,rs}")
+Glob("**/components/**/*.{ts,tsx,jsx}")
+```
+
+```bash
+# Search for specific patterns
+Grep("class.*Controller", type: "ts")
+Grep("export.*function.*handler", type: "ts")
+Grep("router\.(get|post|put|delete)", type: "ts")
+```
+
+**Ranking criteria for analog selection:**
+1. Same role AND same data flow — best match
+2. Same role, different data flow — good match
+3. Different role, same data flow — partial match
+4. Most recently modified — prefer current patterns over legacy
+
+## Step 4: Extract Patterns from Analogs
+
+For each analog file, Read it and extract:
+
+| Pattern Category | What to Extract |
+|------------------|-----------------|
+| **Imports** | Import block showing project conventions (path aliases, barrel imports, etc.) |
+| **Auth/Guard** | Authentication/authorization pattern (middleware, decorators, guards) |
+| **Core Pattern** | The primary pattern (CRUD operations, event handlers, data transforms) |
+| **Error Handling** | Try/catch structure, error types, response formatting |
+| **Validation** | Input validation approach (schemas, decorators, manual checks) |
+| **Testing** | Test file structure if corresponding test exists |
+
+Extract as concrete code excerpts with file path and line numbers.
+
+## Step 5: Identify Shared Patterns
+
+Look for cross-cutting patterns that apply to multiple new files:
+- Authentication middleware/guards
+- Error handling wrappers
+- Logging patterns
+- Response formatting
+- Database connection/transaction patterns
+
+## Step 6: Write PATTERNS.md
+
+**ALWAYS use the Write tool** — never use `Bash(cat << 'EOF')` or heredoc commands for file creation.

+
+If no results or graph.json absent, continue to Step 1.5 without graph context.
+
+## Step 1.5: Architectural Responsibility Mapping
+
+Before diving into framework-specific research, map each capability in this phase to its standard architectural tier owner. This is a pure reasoning step — no tool calls needed.
+
+**For each capability in the phase description:**
+
+1. Identify what the capability does (e.g., "user authentication", "data visualization", "file upload")
+2. Determine which architectural tier owns the primary responsibility:
+
+| Tier | Examples |
+|------|----------|
+| **Browser / Client** | DOM manipulation, client-side routing, local storage, service workers |
+| **Frontend Server (SSR)** | Server-side rendering, hydration, middleware, auth cookies |
+| **API / Backend** | REST/GraphQL endpoints, business logic, auth, data validation |
+| **CDN / Static** | Static assets, edge caching, image optimization |
+| **Database / Storage** | Persistence, queries, migrations, caching layers |
+
+3. Record the mapping in a table:
+
+| Capability | Primary Tier | Secondary Tier | Rationale |
+|------------|-------------|----------------|-----------|
+| [capability] | [tier] | [tier or —] | [why this tier owns it] |
+
+**Output:** Include an `## Architectural Responsibility Map` section in RESEARCH.md immediately after the Summary section. This map is consumed by the planner for sanity-checking task assignments and by the plan-checker for verifying tier correctness.
+
+**Why this matters:** Multi-tier applications frequently have capabilities misassigned during planning — e.g., putting auth logic in the browser tier when it belongs in the API tier, or putting data fetching in the frontend server when the API already provides it. Mapping tier ownership before research prevents these misassignments from propagating into plans.

+
+Project root: ${CWD}
+gsd-tools path: $HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. **Invoke graphify:**
+   Run from the project root:
+   ```
+   graphify . --update
+   ```
+   This builds the knowledge graph with SHA256 incremental caching.
+   Timeout: up to 5 minutes (or as configured via graphify.build_timeout).
+
+2. **Validate output:**
+   Check that graphify-out/graph.json exists and is valid JSON with nodes[] and edges[] arrays.
+   If graphify exited non-zero or graph.json is not parseable, output:
+   ## GRAPHIFY BUILD FAILED
+   Include the stderr output for debugging. Do NOT delete .planning/graphs/ -- prior valid graph remains available.
+
+3. **Copy artifacts to .planning/graphs/:**
+   ```
+   cp graphify-out/graph.json .planning/graphs/graph.json
+   cp graphify-out/graph.html .planning/graphs/graph.html
+   cp graphify-out/GRAPH_REPORT.md .planning/graphs/GRAPH_REPORT.md
+   ```
+   These three files are the build output consumed by query, status, and diff commands.
+
+4. **Write diff snapshot:**
+   ```
+   node \"$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs\" graphify build snapshot
+   ```
+   This creates .planning/graphs/.last-build-snapshot.json for future diff comparisons.
+
+5. **Report build summary:**
+   ```
+   node \"$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs\" graphify status
+   ```
+   Display the node count, edge count, and hyperedge count from the status output.
+
+When complete, output: ## GRAPHIFY BUILD COMPLETE with the summary counts.
+If something fails at any step, output: ## GRAPHIFY BUILD FAILED with details."
+)
+```
+
+Wait for the agent to complete.
+
+---
+
+## Anti-Patterns
+
+1. DO NOT spawn an agent for query/status/diff operations -- these are inline CLI calls
+2. DO NOT modify graph files directly -- the build agent handles writes
+3. DO NOT skip the config gate check
+4. DO NOT use gsd-tools config get-value for the config gate -- it exits on missing keys

+**Before ANY tool calls**, display this banner:
+
+```
+GSD > INTEL
+```
+
+Then proceed to Step 1.
+
+## Step 1 -- Config Gate
+
+Check if intel is enabled by reading `.planning/config.json` directly using the Read tool.
+
+**DO NOT use the gsd-tools config get-value command** -- it hard-exits on missing keys.
+
+1. Read `.planning/config.json` using the Read tool
+2. If the file does not exist: display the disabled message below and **STOP**
+3. Parse the JSON content. Check if `config.intel && config.intel.enabled === true`
+4. If `intel.enabled` is NOT explicitly `true`: display the disabled message below and **STOP**
+5. If `intel.enabled` is `true`: proceed to Step 2
+
+**Disabled message:**
+
+```
+GSD > INTEL
+
+Intel system is disabled. To activate:
+
+  gsd-sdk query config-set intel.enabled true
+
+Then run /gsd-intel refresh to build the initial index.
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 2 -- Parse Argument
+
+Parse `$ARGUMENTS` to determine the operation mode:
+
+| Argument | Action |
+|----------|--------|
+| `query <term>` | Run inline query (Step 2a) |
+| `status` | Run inline status check (Step 2b) |
+| `diff` | Run inline diff check (Step 2c) |
+| `refresh` | Spawn intel-updater agent (Step 3) |
+| No argument or unknown | Show usage message |
+
+**Usage message** (shown when no argument or unrecognized argument):
+
+```
+GSD > INTEL
+
+Usage: /gsd-intel <mode>
+
+Modes:
+  query <term>  Search intel files for a term
+  status        Show intel file freshness and staleness
+  diff          Show changes since last snapshot
+  refresh       Rebuild all intel files from codebase analysis
+```
+
+### Step 2a -- Query
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query intel.query <term>
+```
+
+Parse the JSON output and display results:
+- If the output contains `"disabled": true`, display the disabled message from Step 1 and **STOP**
+- If no matches found, display: `No intel matches for '<term>'. Try /gsd-intel refresh to build the index.`
+- Otherwise, display matching entries grouped by intel file
+
+**STOP** after displaying results. Do not spawn an agent.
+
+### Step 2b -- Status
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query intel.status
+```
+
+Parse the JSON output and display each intel file with:
+- File name
+- Last `updated_at` timestamp
+- STALE or FRESH status (stale if older than 24 hours or missing)
+
+**STOP** after displaying status. Do not spawn an agent.
+
+### Step 2c -- Diff
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query intel.diff
+```
+
+Parse the JSON output and display:
+- Added entries since last snapshot
+- Removed entries since last snapshot
+- Changed entries since last snapshot
+
+If no snapshot exists, suggest running `refresh` first.
+
+**STOP** after displaying diff. Do not spawn an agent.
+
+---
+
+## Step 3 -- Refresh (Agent Spawn)
+
+Display before spawning:
+
+```
+GSD > Spawning intel-updater agent to analyze codebase...
+```
+
+Spawn a Task:
+
+```
+Task(
+  description="Refresh codebase intelligence files",
+  prompt="You are the gsd-intel-updater agent. Your job is to analyze this codebase and write/update intelligence files in .planning/intel/.
+
+Project root: ${CWD}
+Prefer: gsd-sdk query <subcommand> (installed gsd-sdk on PATH). Legacy: node $HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs
+
+Instructions:
+1. Analyze the codebase structure, dependencies, APIs, and architecture
+2. Write JSON intel files to .planning/intel/ (stack.json, api-map.json, dependency-graph.json, file-roles.json, arch-decisions.json)
+3. Each file must have a _meta object with updated_at timestamp
+4. Use `gsd-sdk query intel.extract-exports <file>` to analyze source files
+5. Use `gsd-sdk query intel.patch-meta <file>` to update timestamps after writing
+6. Use `gsd-sdk query intel.validate` to check your output
+
+When complete, output: ## INTEL UPDATE COMPLETE
+If something fails, output: ## INTEL UPDATE FAILED with details."
+)
+```
+
+Wait for the agent to complete.
+
+---
+
+## Step 4 -- Post-Refresh Summary
+
+After the agent completes, run:
+
+```bash
+gsd-sdk query intel.status
+```
+
+Display a summary showing:
+- Which intel files were written or updated
+- Last update timestamps
+- Overall health of the intel index
+
+---
+
+## Anti-Patterns
+
+1. DO NOT spawn an agent for query/status/diff operations -- these are inline CLI calls
+2. DO NOT modify intel files directly -- the agent handles writes during refresh
+3. DO NOT skip the config gate check
+4. DO NOT use the gsd-tools config get-value CLI for the config gate -- it exits on missing keys

 Designed for rapid multi-project workflows where remembering which phase/step you're on is overhead.
+
+Supports `--force` flag to bypass safety gates (checkpoint, error state, verification failures, and prior-phase completeness scan).
+
+Before routing to the next step, scans all prior phases for incomplete work: plans that ran without producing summaries, verification failures without overrides, and phases where discussion happened but planning never ran. When incomplete work is found, shows a structured report and offers three options: defer the gaps to the backlog and continue, stop and resolve manually, or force advance without recording. When prior phases are clean, routes silently with no interruption.

+- REQ-SCAN-INJ-02: Scanner MUST detect encoding obfuscation patterns (base64-encoded instructions, homoglyphs)
+- REQ-SCAN-INJ-03: Scanner MUST apply entropy analysis to flag high-entropy strings in unexpected positions
+- REQ-SCAN-INJ-04: Scanner MUST remain advisory-only — detection is logged, not blocking
+
+---
+
+### 100. Stall Detection in Plan-Phase
+
+**Command:** `/gsd-plan-phase`

+---
+
+### 101. Hard Stop Safety Gates in /gsd-next
+
+**Command:** `/gsd-next`

+
+---
+
+### 103. Post-Merge Hunk Verification
+
+**Command:** `/gsd-reapply-patches`
+
+**Purpose:** After applying local patches post-update, verify that all hunks were actually applied by comparing the expected patch content against the live filesystem. Surface any dropped or partial hunks immediately rather than silently accepting incomplete merges.
+
+**Requirements:**
+- REQ-PATCH-VERIFY-01: Reapply-patches MUST verify each hunk was applied after the merge
+- REQ-PATCH-VERIFY-02: Dropped or partial hunks MUST be reported to the user with file and line context

+
+---
+
+## v1.36.0 Features
+
+### 108. Plan Bounce
+
+**Command:** `/gsd-plan-phase N --bounce`
+
+**Purpose:** After plans pass the checker, optionally refine them through an external script (a second AI, a linter, a custom validator). The bounce step backs up each plan, runs the script, validates YAML frontmatter integrity on the result, re-runs the plan checker, and restores the original if anything fails.
+
+**Requirements:**

+- REQ-BOUNCE-02: `workflow.plan_bounce_script` must point to a valid executable; missing script produces a warning and skips
+- REQ-BOUNCE-03: Each plan is backed up to `*-PLAN.pre-bounce.md` before the script runs
+- REQ-BOUNCE-04: Bounced plans with broken YAML frontmatter or that fail the plan checker are restored from backup
+- REQ-BOUNCE-05: `workflow.plan_bounce_passes` (default: 2) controls how many refinement passes the script receives
+
+**Configuration:** `workflow.plan_bounce`, `workflow.plan_bounce_script`, `workflow.plan_bounce_passes`
+
+---
+
+### 109. External Code Review Command
+
+**Command:** `/gsd-ship` (enhanced)
+
+**Purpose:** Before the manual review step in `/gsd-ship`, automatically run an external code review command if configured. The command receives the diff and phase context via stdin and returns a JSON verdict (`APPROVED` or `REVISE`). Falls through to the existing manual review flow regardless of outcome.
+
+**Requirements:**
+- REQ-EXTREVIEW-01: `workflow.code_review_command` must be set to a command string; null means skip
+- REQ-EXTREVIEW-02: Diff is generated against `BASE_BRANCH` with `--stat` summary included

+- REQ-EXTREVIEW-04: 120-second timeout; stderr captured on failure
+- REQ-EXTREVIEW-05: JSON output parsed for `verdict`, `confidence`, `summary`, `issues` fields
+
+**Configuration:** `workflow.code_review_command`
+
+---
+
+### 110. Cross-AI Execution Delegation
+
+**Command:** `/gsd-execute-phase N --cross-ai`
+
+**Purpose:** Delegate individual plans to an external AI runtime for execution. Plans with `cross_ai: true` in their frontmatter (or all plans when `--cross-ai` is used) are sent to the configured command via stdin. Successfully handled plans are removed from the normal executor queue.
+
+**Requirements:**
+- REQ-CROSSAI-01: `--cross-ai` forces all plans through cross-AI; `--no-cross-ai` disables it
+- REQ-CROSSAI-02: `workflow.cross_ai_execution: true` and plan frontmatter `cross_ai: true` required for per-plan activation
+- REQ-CROSSAI-03: Task prompt is piped via stdin to prevent injection
+- REQ-CROSSAI-04: Dirty working tree produces a warning before execution
+- REQ-CROSSAI-05: On failure, user chooses: retry, skip (fall back to normal executor), or abort
+
+**Configuration:** `workflow.cross_ai_execution`, `workflow.cross_ai_command`, `workflow.cross_ai_timeout`
+
+---
+
+### 111. Architectural Responsibility Mapping
+
+**Command:** `/gsd-plan-phase` (enhanced research step)
+
+**Purpose:** During phase research, the phase-researcher now maps each capability to its architectural tier owner (browser, frontend server, API, CDN/static, database). The planner cross-references tasks against this map, and the plan-checker enforces tier compliance as Dimension 7c.
+
+**Requirements:**
+- REQ-ARM-01: Phase researcher produces an Architectural Responsibility Map table in RESEARCH.md (Step 1.5)
+- REQ-ARM-02: Planner sanity-checks task-to-tier assignments against the map
+- REQ-ARM-03: Plan checker validates tier compliance as Dimension 7c (WARNING for general mismatches, BLOCKER for security-sensitive ones)
+
+**Produces:** `## Architectural Responsibility Map` section in `{phase}-RESEARCH.md`
+
+---
+
+### 112. Extract Learnings
+
+**Command:** `/gsd-extract-learnings N`
+
+**Purpose:** Extract structured knowledge from completed phase artifacts. Reads PLAN.md and SUMMARY.md (required) plus VERIFICATION.md, UAT.md, and STATE.md (optional) to produce four categories of learnings: decisions, lessons, patterns, and surprises. Optionally captures each item to an external knowledge base via `capture_thought` tool.
+
+**Requirements:**
+- REQ-LEARN-01: Requires PLAN.md and SUMMARY.md; exits with clear error if missing
+- REQ-LEARN-02: Each extracted item includes source attribution (artifact and section)
+- REQ-LEARN-03: If `capture_thought` tool is available, captures items with `source`, `project`, and `phase` metadata
+- REQ-LEARN-04: If `capture_thought` is unavailable, completes successfully and logs that external capture was skipped
+- REQ-LEARN-05: Running twice overwrites the previous `LEARNINGS.md`
+
+**Produces:** `{phase}-LEARNINGS.md` with YAML frontmatter (phase, project, counts per category, missing_artifacts)
+
+---
+
+### 113. SDK Workstream Support
+
+**Command:** `gsd-sdk init @prd.md --ws my-workstream`
+
+**Purpose:** Route all SDK `.planning/` paths to `.planning/workstreams/<name>/`, enabling multi-workstream projects without "Project already exists" errors. The `--ws` flag validates the workstream name and propagates to all subsystems (tools, config, context engine).
+
+**Requirements:**
+- REQ-WS-01: `--ws <name>` routes all `.planning/` paths to `.planning/workstreams/<name>/`
+- REQ-WS-02: Without `--ws`, behavior is unchanged (flat mode)
+- REQ-WS-03: Name validated to alphanumeric, hyphens, underscores, and dots only
+- REQ-WS-04: Config resolves from workstream path first, falls back to root `.planning/config.json`
+
+---
+
+### 114. Context-Window-Aware Prompt Thinning
+
+**Purpose:** Reduce static prompt overhead by ~40% for models with context windows under 200K tokens. Extended examples and anti-pattern lists are extracted from agent definitions into reference files loaded on demand via `@` required_reading.
+
+**Requirements:**
+- REQ-THIN-01: When `CONTEXT_WINDOW < 200000`, executor and planner agent prompts omit inline examples
+- REQ-THIN-02: Extracted content lives in `references/executor-examples.md` and `references/planner-antipatterns.md`
+- REQ-THIN-03: Standard (200K-500K) and enriched (500K+) tiers are unaffected
+- REQ-THIN-04: Core rules and decision logic remain inline; only verbose examples are extracted
+
+**Reference files:** `executor-examples.md`, `planner-antipatterns.md`
+
+---
+
+### 115. Configurable CLAUDE.md Path
+
+**Purpose:** Allow projects to store their CLAUDE.md in a non-root location. The `claude_md_path` config key controls where `/gsd-profile-user` and related commands write the generated CLAUDE.md file.
+
+**Requirements:**
+- REQ-CMDPATH-01: `claude_md_path` defaults to `./CLAUDE.md`
+- REQ-CMDPATH-02: Profile generation commands read the path from config and write to the specified location
+- REQ-CMDPATH-03: Relative paths are resolved from the project root
+
+**Configuration:** `claude_md_path`
+
+---
+
+### 116. TDD Pipeline Mode
+
+**Purpose:** Opt-in TDD (red-green-refactor) as a first-class phase execution mode. When enabled, the planner aggressively selects `type: tdd` for eligible tasks and the executor enforces RED/GREEN/REFACTOR gate sequence with fail-fast on unexpected GREEN before RED.
+
+**Requirements:**
+- REQ-TDD-01: `workflow.tdd_mode` config key (boolean, default `false`)
+- REQ-TDD-02: When enabled, planner applies TDD heuristics from `references/tdd.md` to all eligible tasks (business logic, APIs, validations, algorithms, state machines)
+- REQ-TDD-03: Executor enforces gate sequence for `type: tdd` plans — RED commit (`test(...)`) must precede GREEN commit (`feat(...)`)
+- REQ-TDD-04: Executor fails fast if tests pass unexpectedly during RED phase (feature already exists or test is wrong)
+- REQ-TDD-05: End-of-phase collaborative review checkpoint verifies gate compliance across all TDD plans (advisory, non-blocking)
+- REQ-TDD-06: Gate violations surfaced in SUMMARY.md under `## TDD Gate Compliance` section
+
+**Configuration:** `workflow.tdd_mode`
+**Reference files:** `tdd.md`, `checkpoints.md`

+## Code Review Workflow
+
+### Phase Code Review
+
+After executing a phase, run a structured code review before UAT:
+
+```bash
+/gsd-code-review 3               # Review all changed files in phase 3
+/gsd-code-review 3 --depth=deep  # Deep cross-file review (import graphs, call chains)
+```
+
+The reviewer scopes files automatically using SUMMARY.md (preferred) or git diff fallback. Findings are classified as Critical, Warning, or Info in `{phase}-REVIEW.md`.
+
+```bash
+/gsd-code-review-fix 3           # Fix Critical + Warning findings atomically
+/gsd-code-review-fix 3 --auto    # Fix and re-review until clean (max 3 iterations)
+```
+
+### Autonomous Audit-to-Fix
+
+To run an audit and fix all auto-fixable issues in one pass:
+
+```bash
+/gsd-audit-fix                   # Audit + classify + fix (medium+ severity, max 5)
+/gsd-audit-fix --dry-run         # Preview classification without fixing
+```
+
+### Code Review in the Full Phase Lifecycle
+
+The review step slots in after execution and before UAT:
+
+```
+/gsd-execute-phase N   ->  /gsd-code-review N  ->  /gsd-code-review-fix N  ->  /gsd-verify-work N
+```
+
+---
+
+## Exploration & Discovery
+
+### Socratic Exploration
+
+Before committing to a new phase or plan, use `/gsd-explore` to think through the idea:
+
+```bash
+/gsd-explore                           # Open-ended ideation
+/gsd-explore "caching strategy"        # Explore a specific topic

+### Codebase Intelligence
+
+For queryable codebase insights without reading the entire codebase, enable the intel system:
+
+```json
+{ "intel": { "enabled": true } }
+```
+
+Then build the index:
+
+```bash
+/gsd-intel refresh             # Analyze codebase and write .planning/intel/ files
+/gsd-intel query auth          # Search for a term across all intel files
+/gsd-intel status              # Check freshness of intel files
+/gsd-intel diff                # See what changed since last snapshot
+```
+
+Intel files cover stack, API surface, dependency graph, file roles, and architecture decisions.
+
+### Quick Scan
+
+For a focused assessment without full `/gsd-map-codebase` overhead:
+
+```bash
+/gsd-scan                      # Quick tech + arch overview
+/gsd-scan --focus quality      # Quality and code health only
+/gsd-scan --focus concerns     # Risk areas and concerns
+```

 If GSD subagents call Anthropic models and you're paying through OpenRouter or a local provider, switch to the `inherit` profile: `/gsd-set-profile inherit`. This makes all agents use your current session model instead of specific Anthropic models. See also `/gsd-settings` → Model Profile → Inherit.

+### Executor Subagent Gets "Permission denied" on Bash Commands
+
+GSD's `gsd-executor` subagents need write-capable Bash access to a project's standard tooling — `git commit`, `bin/rails`, `bundle exec`, `npm run`, `uv run`, and similar commands. Claude Code's default `~/.claude/settings.json` only allows a narrow set of read-only git commands, so a fresh install will hit "Permission to use Bash has been denied" the first time an executor tries to make a commit or run a build tool.
+
+**Fix: add the required patterns to `~/.claude/settings.json`.**
+
+The patterns you need depend on your stack. Copy the block for your stack and add it to the `permissions.allow` array.
+
+#### Required for all stacks (git + gh)
+
+```json
+"Bash(git add:*)",
+"Bash(git commit:*)",
+"Bash(git merge:*)",
+"Bash(git worktree:*)",
+"Bash(git rebase:*)",
+"Bash(git reset:*)",
+"Bash(git checkout:*)",
+"Bash(git switch:*)",
+"Bash(git restore:*)",
+"Bash(git stash:*)",
+"Bash(git rm:*)",
+"Bash(git mv:*)",
+"Bash(git fetch:*)",
+"Bash(git cherry-pick:*)",
+"Bash(git apply:*)",
+"Bash(gh:*)"
+```
+
+#### Rails / Ruby
+
+```json
+"Bash(bin/rails:*)",
+"Bash(bin/brakeman:*)",
+"Bash(bin/bundler-audit:*)",
+"Bash(bin/importmap:*)",
+"Bash(bundle:*)",
+"Bash(rubocop:*)",
+"Bash(erb_lint:*)"
+```
+
+#### Python / uv
+
+```json
+"Bash(uv:*)",
+"Bash(python:*)",
+"Bash(pytest:*)",
+"Bash(ruff:*)",
+"Bash(mypy:*)"
+```
+
+#### Node / npm / pnpm / bun
+
+```json
+"Bash(npm:*)",
+"Bash(npx:*)",
+"Bash(pnpm:*)",
+"Bash(bun:*)",
+"Bash(node:*)"
+```
+
+#### Rust / Cargo
+
+```json
+"Bash(cargo:*)"
+```
+
+**Example `~/.claude/settings.json` snippet (Rails project):**
+
+```json
+{
+  "permissions": {
+    "allow": [
+      "Write",
+      "Edit",
+      "Bash(git add:*)",
+      "Bash(git commit:*)",
+      "Bash(git merge:*)",
+      "Bash(git worktree:*)",
+      "Bash(git rebase:*)",
+      "Bash(git reset:*)",
+      "Bash(git checkout:*)",
+      "Bash(git switch:*)",
+      "Bash(git restore:*)",
+      "Bash(git stash:*)",
+      "Bash(git rm:*)",
+      "Bash(git mv:*)",
+      "Bash(git fetch:*)",
+      "Bash(git cherry-pick:*)",
+      "Bash(git apply:*)",
+      "Bash(gh:*)",
+      "Bash(bin/rails:*)",
+      "Bash(bin/brakeman:*)",
+      "Bash(bin/bundler-audit:*)",
+      "Bash(bundle:*)",
+      "Bash(rubocop:*)"
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Per-project permissions (scoped to one repo):** If you prefer to allow these patterns for a single project rather than globally, add the same `permissions.allow` block to `.claude/settings.local.json` in your project root instead of `~/.claude/settings.json`. Claude Code checks project-local settings first.
+
+**Interactive guidance:** When an executor is blocked mid-phase, it will identify the exact pattern needed (e.g. `"Bash(bin/rails:*)"`) so you can add it and re-run `/gsd-execute-phase`.
+
 ### Subagent Appears to Fail but Work Was Done
 
 A known workaround exists for a Claude Code classification bug. GSD's orchestrators (execute-phase, quick) spot-check actual output before reporting failure. If you see a failure message but commits were made, check `git log` -- the work may have succeeded.

+# GSD SDK query migration (summary blurb)
+
+Copy-paste friendly for Discord and GitHub comments.
+
+---
+
+**@gsd-build/sdk** replaces the untyped, monolithic `gsd-tools.cjs` subprocess with a typed, tested, registry-based query system and **`gsd-sdk query`**, giving GSD structured results, classified errors (`GSDQueryError`), and golden-verified parity with the old CLI. That gives the framework one stable contract instead of a fragile, very large CLI that every workflow had to spawn and parse by hand.
+
+**What users can expect**
+
+- Same GSD commands and workflows they already use.
+- Snappier runs (less Node startup on chained tool calls).
+- Fewer mysterious mid-workflow failures and safer upgrades, because behavior is covered by tests and a single stable contract.
+- Stronger predictability: outputs and failure modes are consistent and explicit.
+
+**Cost and tokens**
+
+The SDK does not automatically reduce LLM tokens per model call. Savings show up indirectly: fewer ambiguous tool results and fewer retry or recovery loops, which often lowers real-world session cost and wall time.
+
+**Agents then vs now**
+
+Agents always followed workflow instructions. What improved is the surface those steps run on. Before, workflows effectively said to shell out to `gsd-tools.cjs` and interpret stdout or JSON with brittle assumptions. Now they point at **`gsd-sdk query`** and typed handlers that return the shapes prompts expect, with clearer error reasons when something must stop or be fixed, so instruction following holds end to end with less thrash from bad parses or silent output drift.
