Bo 6abc480bc1 feat(agy): package core skills for Antigravity (#805)
## Summary
- Add .agy-plugin as the Antigravity packaging unit for the 27 CORE
AgentOps skills.
- Include plugin.json, mcp_config.json, hooks.json, and bundled portable
SKILL.md files.
- Add scripts/validate-agy-plugin.sh to verify AGY CLI validation, Agent
Mail MCP config, hook sidecars, skill count, and source/bundle drift.

## Validation
- bash scripts/validate-agy-plugin.sh
- shellcheck --severity=error scripts/validate-agy-plugin.sh
- jq empty .agy-plugin/plugin.json .agy-plugin/mcp_config.json
.agy-plugin/hooks.json
- git diff --check
- bash scripts/regen-all.sh --check
- bash scripts/validate-manifests.sh
- PRE_PUSH_SKIP_MKDOCS=1 bash scripts/pre-push-gate.sh --fast (passes;
existing warn-only executable-spec drift remains: scenarios --lint,
trace --orphans)

non-CLI providers
- switch compile auto-detect/default headless CLI runtime from
claude-cli to codex-cli
- fix two shellcheck blockers from the merged skill corpus and refresh
generated docs/hash metadata

Bo 6d5d111faf feat(skills): land four-vendor skill corpus (#803)
## Summary
- Lands the AgentOps skill corpus across source and Codex wrappers,
including Gemini image targets.
- Integrates the skill branch onto current origin/main and refreshes
generated manifests/catalogs.
- Normalizes local next-work queue enum drift and fixes shellcheck in
alias-collision validation.

## Validation
- bash scripts/regen-all.sh --check
- bash scripts/validate-skill-schema.sh
- bash tests/skills/test-token-budgets.sh

- bash scripts/audit-codex-parity.sh && bash

MkDocs strict remains skipped locally via the documented
PRE_PUSH_SKIP_MKDOCS=1 override because the repo currently emits
repo-wide strict-link warnings unrelated to this landing; CI remains
authoritative.

Bo 65a986c691 fix(skill-eval): constrain backtick safe-paths exemption to known file extensions (ag-eatf follow-up) (#801)
## Why (quorum remediation)
#767 (via an autonomous resolver, **merged without quorum**) broadened
the ag-eatf safe-paths false-positive filter to strip **any**
backtick-wrapped `../path`. Side effect: a backtick-wrapped
`../../../../etc/passwd` in a SKILL.md would be treated as a safe
doc-reference and **bypass the safe-paths gate**.

Cross-model quorum on the as-merged change: **Codex = REVISE**
("unacceptable bypass… constrain to repo-internal + approved extensions,
else revert"). (agy/Gemini was unreachable this round — timeouts.)
Tightening a gate back toward its documented intent is the safe
direction, so this lands the constrained version.

## Fix
Backtick strip now requires a **known repo-file extension**:
`md|markdown|mdx|txt|rst|json|yaml|toml|sh|go|py|ts|rs`. Legit
inline-code refs (``../../schemas/x.json``, ``../scripts/y.sh``) stay
exempt; an extension-less traversal (``../../../../etc/passwd``) no
longer matches → still **BLOCKS**.

## Evidence
`bats tests/scripts/skill-eval.bats` → 14/14 (2 new:
backtick-`/etc/passwd` blocks; backtick-`.json` ref passes; the
bare-traversal-blocks test still green).

Bo bdd62816ea docs(skills): add trigger markers to judgment-tier skills (ag-okfu #judgment-wave) (#767)
## What

Wave 1 of **ag-okfu** — adds an explicit `Use when:` discovery trigger
clause to the 8 **judgment-tier** skills: `council`, `design`,
`post-mortem`, `pre-mortem`, `red-team`, `review`, `validate`, `vibe`.

`scan_descriptions.py` flagged 73/81 skills with no trigger marker — a
silent skill-selection risk since runtime discovery is pure LLM
reasoning over the `description` field. The judgment tier ships first
because mis-selection there (e.g. grabbing `review` when you needed
`validate`) is the most costly.

## Why this slice

The bead says *"wave by metadata.tier."* This is one coherent wave = one
PR with a single rollback semantic. Remaining tiers (execution 22,
knowledge 8, meta 8, session 6, background 5, product 5, contribute 4,
cross-vendor 3, library 3, orchestration 1) ship as follow-on waves.

## Evidence

- Corpus missing-trigger count: **73 → 65** (the 8 judgment skills now
pass).
- `python3 skills/skill-builder/scripts/scan_descriptions.py skills
--strict` — all 8 judgment skills report `has_trigger=True`.
- `bash scripts/generate-registry.sh --check` → `OK: registry.json is up
to date` (regenerated, descriptions embedded).
- `markdownlint` clean on all 8 changed SKILL.md files.

## Notes

- Does **not** close ag-okfu — the `--strict` gate stays red until all
tiers are done. Advances the bead; unblocks nothing yet (ag-cx7d ratchet
waits on full corpus clean).

Bo b84dcf3ca2 docs(hookless): close cold-start orientation drift (soc-qh2g1 #cold-start-orientation-coherence) (#795)
## Summary

Close the hookless cold-start orientation gap for `soc-qh2g1` by making
the live startup docs and skills point at explicit `ao session
bootstrap` plus pulled context (`ao inject` / `ao lookup`) instead of
hidden SessionStart behavior.

## Changes

- Reframes live docs that still implied automatic startup/handoff
injection to the hookless explicit-command path.
- Updates source and Codex skill mirrors for `quickstart`, `inject`,
`using-agentops`, `recover`, `bug-hunt`, and `session-bootstrap`.
- Expands the cold-start and docs drift gates so `SessionStart hook`,
`startup hooks`, and `auto-inject ... hook` promises fail unless
explicitly hedged as opt-in, removed, or historical.
- Refreshes scoped Codex skill hashes for the touched mirrors.

## Test plan

- [x] `bash scripts/check-hookless-cold-start.sh`
- [x] `bash scripts/check-doc-hooks-drift.sh`
- [x] `bats tests/scripts/check-hookless-cold-start.bats

Bo 3bab897009 test(cli): migrate dedup_test.go to t.Chdir + lock isolation ratchet 163->151 (ag-4nif #dedup-tchdir) (#773)
## What

Migrate `dedup_test.go`'s 6 manual `origDir, _ := os.Getwd();
os.Chdir(tmp); defer os.Chdir(origDir)` blocks to Go 1.20+
`t.Chdir(tmp)` — auto-restores cwd **and** refuses `t.Parallel`,
pre-empting the latent flake class flagged by **ag-4nif** / **ag-k38x**
(raw forms mutate process-global cwd). No `t.Parallel` in the file;
behavior-preserving.

Each block held two `os.Chdir(` references (the call + the defer
restore), so 6 blocks drop the repo-wide test-isolation count by **12
(163→151)**. I lowered `BASELINE_CHDIR` in
`scripts/check-test-isolation.sh` to **lock the gain** (the ratchet is
only-goes-down).

## Scope / no-collision note

`os.Chdir` only. The 3 redundant `os.Setenv` restores in
`rpi_reliability_test.go` are **already handled by the open PR #772
(ag-k38x)** — I deliberately do **not** touch that file here, to avoid a
merge collision (an earlier draft of this branch did; it was reverted).
**ag-k38x is the canonical tracker; ag-4nif/ag-y4ac are duplicates** —
worth closing as dup-of-ag-k38x during triage.

## Evidence

```
bash scripts/check-test-isolation.sh        # PASS (os.Chdir=151/151, os.Setenv=22/22)
cd cli
go build ./...                              # OK

gofmt -l                                     # clean
```

Net: −19 / +8 across `dedup_test.go` + the ratchet baseline.

Bo 2a33a64bb3 chore(ci): CLI surface count regen script + fast pre-flight (ag-lkxx #cli-surface-regen) (#760)
## Summary
- New `scripts/update-cli-surface-counts.sh` with `--check` (default)
and `--fix` modes to synchronize CLI heading counts across the smoke
script and canary matrix JSON
- Wires fast pre-flight count-check into contracts-sync CI (catches
drift in ms before the 180s canary build)
- Adding a new ao CLI command is now: add Go code →
`generate-cli-reference.sh` → `update-cli-surface-counts.sh --fix` →
push

## Test plan
- [x] Script passes in check mode with current counts (75/188/263)
- [x] Script detects simulated drift (exit 1 + clear error message)
- [x] `--fix` mode correctly updates smoke script and matrix JSON
- [x] Fixed files are byte-identical to originals (round-trip verified)
- [x] `bash -n` syntax check passes
- [x] Go build passes in worktree
- [ ] CI contracts-sync passes with new pre-flight step

Bo a999bcbe62 fix(embedded): restore emptied standards embeds — main hotfix (ag-arpk follow-up) (#799)
## Main is red — hotfix

`cli/embedded/skills/standards/references/{go,test-pyramid}.md` were
**empty (0 bytes)** on main HEAD; #776's merge truncated them.
`contracts-sync` / `correctness` run the full embedded-sync check on
main-push (changed-files-scoped on PRs, so it slipped through during the
batch drain) → main Validate failed (run on 3df599df, def8fc9b).

## Fix
- Re-synced both embedded files from their sources via the
`cli/Makefile` recipe (`cp ../skills/standards/references/*`).
`scripts/validate-embedded-sync.sh` now reports **All embedded files are
in sync**.
- Corrected that script's stale fix hint: `make sync-embedded` (no such
target) → `make sync-hooks` (the real recipe).

## Evidence
`bash scripts/validate-embedded-sync.sh` → "All embedded files are in
sync."

Bo cfcca74773 fix(scripts): port skill-catalog generator off gawk-only awk -v (ag-mm6q #bsd-awk-portability) (#784)
## What

`scripts/generate-skill-catalog.sh` passed the YAML frontmatter into awk
via `awk -v fm="$fm"`. A literal newline inside a `-v var=value`
assignment is accepted **only by GNU awk**; BSD/POSIX awk (macOS without
gawk) errors with `awk: newline in string ...` and emits no catalog — so
the catalog (and its drift gate `check-skill-catalog-drift.sh`) could
only run inside Linux CI.

## Fix

Feed the frontmatter on **stdin** and accumulate input lines into
`lines[]` (processed in `END` exactly as before) instead of `-v` +
`split()`. Pure input-mechanism change — the parse logic is untouched.

## Evidence (macOS BSD awk, version 20200816)

- **Before:** `bash scripts/generate-skill-catalog.sh --stdout` → `awk:
newline in string name: agent-native` (no output).
- **After:** valid JSON for all 81 skills; lists, `context_rel`, and
quoted descriptions parse correctly (e.g. `deps` → `context_rel: [{kind:
supplier-to, with: vibe}]`, matching the source SKILL.md).
- Added an explicit BSD/POSIX-awk regression test (`multi-line
frontmatter parses ... without 'newline in string'`). Full bats suite
**15/15 green** on macOS.
- `shellcheck` clean.

## Scope note

The committed `skills/catalog.json` is **independently stale** (75 vs 81
skills — drift predates this change, since the generator never ran
off-Linux). Regenerating it is deliberately left to the Linux-CI drift
path (the `check skill catalog drift` job is **I0 advisory /
non-blocking**) to avoid committing a glob-order-sensitive artifact
generated off-CI.

Bo 7265fda1b1 chore(test): migrate redundant os.Setenv to t.Setenv; lower isolation ratchet 22->12 (ag-k38x #bulk-migration-setenv) (#772)
## What

Advances the test-isolation ratchet (`scripts/check-test-isolation.sh`,
shipped in #699) by driving the `os.Setenv` baseline from **22 → 12**.
Pure test-hygiene; no production-code change.

`t.Setenv` auto-restores on cleanup **and** fails fast under
`t.Parallel` — the raw `os.Setenv` form is the latent-flake landmine the
ratchet exists to retire (cf. ag-jfzs).

## Sites migrated (10 eliminated)

| File | Δ | How |
|---|---|---|
| `internal/config/config_test.go` | -6 | Collapse the `origX :=
os.Getenv(...)` + `defer os.Setenv(... restore)` block into 3×
`t.Setenv` |
| `internal/goals/measure_test.go` | -1 | Delete the redundant
`origPath`/`defer os.Setenv` — the existing `t.Setenv("PATH","")`
already auto-restores |
| `cmd/ao/rpi_reliability_test.go` | -3 | Delete 3 redundant
restore-defers wrapped around existing `t.Setenv` calls |

## The remaining 12 are intentional (not migratable)

Documented inline in the ratchet script. They cannot use `t.Setenv`:
- **TestMain** (`cmd/ao/main_test.go`,
`internal/doctor/doctor_testmain_test.go`) — no `*testing.T` in scope
(4)
- **String-literal fixtures** (`internal/doctor/fix_cliconfig_test.go`)
— `os.Setenv` appears inside generated test-program source, not a real
call (2)
- **Unset-semantics helpers** (`cmd/ao/handoff_test.go`,
`internal/lifecycle/repo_readiness_test.go`,
`internal/wiki/locator_test.go`) — these `os.Unsetenv`+restore vars;
`t.Setenv` has no unset form (6)

## Verification

- `bash scripts/check-test-isolation.sh` → `PASS … os.Setenv=12/12`
- `go build ./...` ✓ · `go vet` (touched pkgs) ✓
- `go test ./internal/config/ ./internal/goals/` → 526 passed; touched

Bo cb8161c806 feat(ratchet): enforce R3 'no learning without a constraint' as a script gate (ag-maaa #r3-constraint-gate) (#768)
## What

Makes the Brownian-Ratchet rule **R3 — "no learning without a
constraint"** self-enforcing. Previously it was prose only
(`docs/architecture/operating-loop.md` promotion table: *"Must never
regress → add a validation gate"*): a learning could be promoted to a
durable maturity tier without ever compiling into a gate/test/rule. The
mechanism existed (`cli/internal/ratchet/`) but R3 was a manual operator
decision with no check.

## How

`scripts/check-ratchet-r3-constraint.sh` scans the learnings corpus and
flags any **durable-tier** learning
(`candidate`/`established`/`canonical`/`stable`/`promoted`) that cites
**no constraint** — a `scripts/`/`.github/workflows/` gate, a
`_test.go`/`tests/` reference, a `skills/**/SKILL.md` step, or a
`constraint:`/`enforced_by:` frontmatter field. Provisional learnings
are exempt (still forming).

- **Warn-first → blocking**, mirroring the ratchet's own warn-then-fail
ladder: warn-only by default (exit 0); `--strict` or
`RATCHET_R3_BLOCKING=true` makes the same gaps blocking (exit 1).

## Why a script, not a CI path-filter gate

`.agents/learnings/**` is **gitignored** (0 tracked). A CI path-filter
gate on it would be dead-by-design — the exact reason the
`learning-coherence` CI job was retired (2026-05-19). So R3 runs at
ratchet/flywheel time against the **live local corpus**; the script's
own correctness is gated in CI by the committed bats test
(`tests/scripts/*.bats` runs in `validate.yml`).

## Verification

- `tests/scripts/check-ratchet-r3-constraint.bats` — 11 hermetic tests
on a synthetic fixture (warn-first, --strict, env-var parity,
provisional exemption, empty-field rejection, gate/test/SKILL citation
forms, count accuracy). All pass.
- `shellcheck` clean.
- Dry-run against the real local corpus: 639 scanned, 7 durable-tier, 5
flagged — warn-only, exit 0 (honest; does not break on existing corpus).

Bo fec947be0d fix(skill-eval): filter safe-paths false-positives on markdown doc-link ../ (ag-eatf #safe-paths-doclink-filter) (#796)
## What

`scripts/skill-eval.sh` treated ms's `safe-paths` rule as blocking on
**every** `../`. That rule is a blunt regex, and `../` relative markdown
doc-links are the repo-wide SKILL.md convention (47+ skills, e.g.
`[x](../other/SKILL.md)`, `../../docs/...md`). SKILL.md is
documentation, not executed code, so those are false positives — they
redded `skill-eval` → `summary` on **every skills-touching PR** (blocked
#776; gated #759/#764/#767 in this session's drain).

## Fix

Added a file-level filter: `safe-paths` stays **blocking only when a
`../` survives stripping (1) markdown inline-link targets `](...)` and
(2) relative doc-path tokens (`*.md/.markdown/.mdx/.txt/.rst`)** — i.e.
a real, non-doc `../`. Otherwise the findings downgrade to advisory
annotations (announced, not silenced).

Net effect: **purely removes false positives; real protection is
preserved.** A genuine traversal (e.g. `../../../../etc/passwd` in a
description) still blocks — verified. No regression to the other
blocking rules.

## Evidence

- `bats tests/scripts/skill-eval.bats` → 12/12 pass (10 prior + 2 new
ag-eatf cases: doc-links downgrade→PASS; real non-doc `../`→BLOCK).
- Manual: `agent-native` and `domain` skills (previously red on
safe-paths) now PASS; a mixed real-threat fixture BLOCKs.

Bo 463a6b31b1 chore(ci): guard author≠judge convergence on liveness.Disjoint (DRIFT #149 gate) (#746)
## What
The empty-ID self-grade bypass **recurred** — #737 (PG3/PG4) → #741
(citation reward) — because the author≠judge invariant had been
reimplemented in divergent places. #744 + #741 converged the 3 sites
onto `liveness.Disjoint`. This is the **2nd-occurrence gate** that keeps
them converged.

`scripts/check-author-judge-convergence.sh` flags any Go site doing its
own `author == judge` / `EqualFold(author, judge)` / `judge_id ==
author_id` equality **outside** `liveness.Disjoint`
(`cli/internal/liveness/guards.go`). Comments and `*_test.go` are
excluded.

## Why
This completes the no-self-grade invariant to its full form —
**converged + locked + gated**:
- **Converged** — #744 (`evidencedturn`) + #741 (`citation`) collapse
the 3 impls onto one `Disjoint`.
- **Locked** — #744's `TestAuthorNeqValidator_AgreesWithDisjoint` fails
CI if impl-#2 re-diverges.
- **Gated (this PR)** — catches a *new* 4th divergent impl **anywhere**,
in the gate every cluster agent runs pre-push.

Catch → encode → never-again. A failure that recurred twice mandates a
durable gate, not a third per-site patch.

## Validation
- Passes clean on current `main` (post-convergence: **zero** divergent
sites).
- 5 bats specs: pass-on-converged, flag-equality, flag-`EqualFold`,
skip-comment, skip-`_test.go`.
- Wired into `pre-push-gate.sh` always-on (fast grep, ~ms) — verified
`ok author!=judge convergence` in a full gate run. shellcheck clean (the
2 SC2317 infos are pre-existing in pre-push-gate.sh, not this change).
- Scope: 3 files, +96/−0 (guard script + bats + gate wiring). No
production code.

> Follow-up: mirror as a `validate.yml` CI step once the validate.yml
merge-churn settles (low-collision now via the pre-push gate). DRIFT

Bo 419bda7532 feat(memory): classify bd remember notes (ag-u1zi) (#745)
## Summary

Implements ag-u1zi W4.1: a deterministic classifier for migrating `bd
remember` notes into the memory architecture without promoting
bead-local operational chatter into pull-learning memory.

Changes:
- adds `scripts/classify-bd-remember.py` with JSON/markdown output,
`--input`, `--expected-count`, and `--generated-at` options
- adds fixture and Bats coverage for classification coverage, lineage
preservation, markdown manifest, and expected-count mismatch
- adds `docs/contracts/bd-remember-migration-manifest.md` plus
documentation-index entry

Classification policy:
- `bead`: bead-linked, session-local, one-off, or tracker-operational
notes
- `pull-learning`: reusable project learning candidates, emitted as
`reach=pull`, `maturity=provisional`, `source=migrated-bd-remember`
- `discard`: empty/stale/deprecated/obsolete notes

Dolt/bd caveat: `bd update ag-u1zi --claim` and `bd ready` are failing
via the known Dolt/MySQL write/read path (`context canceled` / invalid
connection), so claim/provenance is recorded in Agent Mail rather than
bd state.

## Validation

Focused:
- `bats tests/scripts/bd-remember-classifier.bats` PASS
- `python3 -m py_compile scripts/classify-bd-remember.py` PASS
- `bash scripts/check-contracts-structural-floor.sh` PASS after indexing

added/removed/renamed, these surfaces must update in lockstep — the
multi-surface tax that bit #720 (ag-sz3h, ~4 extra CI rounds):

`cli/cmd/ao/cobra_commands_test.go`
- the `cli-command-surface` heading counts:
`evals/agentops-core/fixtures/cli-command-surface-smoke.sh` +
`evals/agentops-core/cli-command-surface-matrix.json`

## How

- **Single source of truth for the command set**: the LIVE cobra tree,
dumped by the new `TestDumpRegisteredTopLevelCommands` (set
`AO_DUMP_REGISTERED_CMDS=1`). It walks `rootCmd.Commands()` (sorted,
`help` excluded) — exactly the membership the two `expectedCmds`
literals must match. A *test*, not a subcommand, so emitting the list
does not itself add a registered command (which would be circular).
- **Single source of truth for the counts**: `cli/docs/COMMANDS.md`
(itself generated from the cobra tree). `top = ### \`ao `, `sub = ####
\`ao `, `all = #{3,4} \`ao `.
- Rewrites all three derived surfaces deterministically. The
`expectedCmds` literals are reformatted one-element-per-line
(gofmt-stable) so output is canonical forever — **membership is
identical to before (pure reformat)**.
- **Idempotent**: a no-change tree is a no-op; `--check` fails on drift
without writing.
- Wired into `regen-all.sh` (both regen + `--check`) right after the
COMMANDS.md step.

## Deletion ⊃ Addition (completeness note)

Removing/renaming a command is a SUPERSET of adding one. This
regenerator covers the ADD surfaces. A delete/rename ALSO disturbs
surfaces it does NOT auto-regenerate — these need manual/quorum
attention:

- (a) codex-contract gates that hardcode command literals
(`validate-codex-rpi-contract.sh`)
- (b) skills-codex twins/overrides (`export-claude-skills-to-codex` +
`regen-codex-hashes`)
- (c) VERBATIM-PRESERVE template SHAs (`cron-loop-mode.md` frontmatter)

A "deletion ⊃ addition" note is present in the regenerator header
comment AND the `regen-all.sh` operator reminder.

## Verification

- `scripts/regen-command-surfaces.sh` → no-op on clean tree; `--check`
green.
- `go build ./cmd/ao`, `go vet ./cmd/ao`, `go test ./cmd/ao` (full
package) all pass; `gofmt -l` clean.
- `cli-command-surface-matrix` canary: pass. Smoke fixture: pass.
- Pre-push gate's only reds are pre-existing, unrelated canaries
(`context-packet-ab-wave0`, `agentops-core.pre-push-gate-governance`
bats) — not touched by this diff.

Bo 015bb52286 ci(ci): wire scan_descriptions --probe as I0-informational receipt lane (ag-iyu4 #probe-i0) (#738)
Wires `scripts/skill-probe-i0.sh` — the deterministic lexical trigger
ranker (`scan_descriptions.py --probe`, ag-7led) — as an
**I0-INFORMATIONAL** step inside the `skill-eval` job.

## What it does
- Runs the probe over every `trigger_probes:` phrase in the corpus,
writes a per-skill JSON receipt to `.agents/ao/skill-eval/<id>.json`,
and uploads it as the `skill-retrieval-probe-receipts` workflow
artifact.
- Asserts byte-stable **determinism** across two runs; a
non-deterministic probe is surfaced as a `::warning::` only.
- **Not a PR check:** `continue-on-error: true` lives INSIDE the
existing `skill-eval` job, so no new GitHub check is created and the
step can never block (or even advisory-fail) a merge. I0 =
informational.
- No-ops cleanly (exit 0, no receipts) until a skill opts in with
`trigger_probes:`.

## Acceptance
- Probe emits the JSON-receipt artifact AND no new PR check appears
(verify absent from `gh pr checks`).
- A deliberately non-deterministic probe input is caught by the
determinism assertion before it could become a gate —
`tests/scripts/skill-probe-i0.bats` (3 specs, all green).

## 2-week stability baseline
Documented in three places (validate.yml comment,
`docs/contracts/ci-jobs.yaml` skill-eval entry,
`skills/skill-builder/SKILL.md` trigger_probes note): keep `--probe`
I0-only until the receipt lane runs green + byte-stable across the
corpus for a 2-week baseline of merges before any blocking-gate
promotion.

Bo 8ad6747913 chore(ao): delete the ao evolve CLI surface (ag-llni slice 1) (#724)
**Slice 1 of ag-llni** — retire `ao rpi`/`ao evolve` (orchestration is
no longer an in-CLI engine). This PR removes the **`ao evolve`** half;
the `rpi*.go` + phased web is slice 2.

**Architecture (operator-confirmed 2026-06-04):** orchestration is
two-tier — *inner loop* (one session) = skills/CLIs/native-subagents +
**Workflows** (`.claude/workflows/operating-loop.js` + `bead-crank.js` —
the Claude encoding of inner-orchestration that was mis-shaped as
`rpi`/`evolve`); *outer loop* (many sessions) = **NTM +
mcp-agent-mail**. Codex inner-loop = NTM + agent-mail for now. Leaf CLIs
(`corpus`/`goals`/flywheel/knowledge loops = BC1 corpus), NTM, and
agent-mail all stay.

### Changes
- Deleted `ao evolve` + 4 subcommands (`config`, `next-work`, `blocked`,
`write-stop-marker`) — 10 files.
- Relocated the one non-evolve coupling, `countCronHistoryRows`, into
its sole consumer `cron_self_adjust.go`.
- Removed `evolve` from the `cobra_commands_test.go` golden
`expectedCmds` list (2 sites).
- Regenerated `cli/docs/COMMANDS.md` (−125 lines) +
`docs/cli-skills-map.md`.

### Verification
- `go build ./...` green · `go vet ./cmd/ao` clean · **`go test
./cmd/ao` = 9251 pass**.
- Net: 13 files, −2192 LOC.

Bo 092b99dad9 feat(skills): add skill-eval.sh ms-backed quality gate (ag-yzoz #skill-eval) (#726)
## What

Adds `scripts/skill-eval.sh` — a thin gate that runs one skill's
`SKILL.md` through Jeff Emanuel's `ms` (meta_skill) `lint` + `validate`.
The wrapper decides the gate purely on whether a **blocking** `rule_id`
appears (ms's own severity/exit is not trusted):

- Blocking: `no-secrets`, `no-injection`, `safe-paths`,
`required-metadata`, `no-cycle`, `valid-version` → non-zero exit.
- Everything else → annotated only (`::warning::`), never fails.
- `ms` not on PATH (or `MS_BIN` missing) → **loud `::error::` hard-fail
(exit 3)**, never skip-and-pass — a silent skip would recreate the
no-evaluation gap this gate closes.

Planted `skills/_fixtures/{bad,good}-skill/SKILL.md` fixtures +
`tests/scripts/skill-eval.bats` (10 tests) exercise the
bad/good/ms-absent contracts.

## Fixture scoping

`skills/_fixtures/` is non-skill scaffolding (planted fixtures). The
skill-enumerating gates/generators are taught to skip `skills/_*` so the
fixtures never inflate the skill count (stays 82) or fail registry /
schema / wiring / runtime / count gates. Touched enumerators:
`generate-registry`, `validate-skill-schema`, `sync-skill-counts`,
`validate-skill-count`, `generate-skill-catalog`,
`generate-context-map`, `validate-manifests`, `check-wiring-closure`,
`validate-headless-runtime-skills`, `lib/sku_catalog.py`,
`check-alias-collisions`, `run-all`, `test-runtime-opencode-smoke`,
`release-smoke-test`, `smoke-test`, `validate-skill`.

Does **not** touch `validate.yml` — wiring skill-eval.sh into CI is a
separate bead.

Epic: ag-czzf

## Verification

- `bats tests/scripts/skill-eval.bats` → 10/10 pass (ms 0.1.2 on PATH)
- `shellcheck scripts/skill-eval.sh` → clean
- `check-registry-drift`, `validate-skill-schema`, `sync-skill-counts`,
`run-all`, opencode-smoke → all PASS with fixtures present, skill count
= 82 (fixtures excluded)

Bo 3d99d4bf69 fix(corpus): unify secret redaction + compile/CI git-safety (ag-sz3h ag-zi90 ag-y2xy #w1-git-safety) (#720)
Completes the **W1 git-safety arc** of epic ag-lhu0 (memory-system
re-architecture) — three beads, one coherent surface, after #719 wired
scrub-on-write into corpus_fs.

- **ag-zi90 (dedup):** `redactContent` (`ao context assemble`) now runs
canonical `llm.Redact` first — a single source of truth for credential
patterns (AWS / GitHub / GitLab / Slack / GCP / PEM, previously
uncovered in this path) — then keeps the supplements `llm.Redact` does
*not* cover: 2-segment app JWTs, sensitive env-var assignments,
high-entropy strings.
- **ag-sz3h (compile chokepoint):** new `ao redact` (stdin→stdout
canonical scrub) bridges the shell compile path; `compile.sh` pipes
every rendered article through it before `os.WriteFile` (loud fallback
if `ao` absent).
- **ag-y2xy (CI backstop):** `check-corpus-secret-scan.sh` scans
**git-tracked** (committed/allowlisted) `.agents` corpus + canon only —
repo-root `.agents` is local-only by policy, so scrub-on-write (#719 +
`ao redact`) is the primary defense and this is the backstop. Wired into
`validate.yml`; bats covers clean / leak-with-file:line /
untracked-not-scanned.

Scrub-on-write is primary; CI is the backstop. Verified: go
build/vet/test (incl. `TestRunRedact`, JWT-dedup regression test green),
bats 3/3, shellcheck clean, conformance regenerated.

Bo d4d92c8dfb chore(gates): gate ASCII-diagram skill counts + drop dead hooks/ scan (ag-c4wn #lk80-papercuts) (#715)
Three low-severity **ag-lk80** post-mortem papercuts, one chore arc
(single rollback semantic).

## 1. ASCII-diagram skill-count drift guard — `sync-skill-counts.sh`
`docs/agentops-system-map.md` and `docs/agentops-brief.md` hardcode the
skill count inside box-drawing borders whose column widths are
alignment-sensitive. `patch_file` deliberately won't auto-rewrite them
(a digit-width change, e.g. `99→100`, silently breaks the box). Added
the sanctioned **tolerant check**: every `<N> [shared] skills` token
must equal the on-disk skill TOTAL, else FAIL so a human re-pads the
box. Closes the drift class auto-patch left open. Works in both
`--check` and apply modes (reuses the existing `errors` counter).

## 2. `bd hooks` commit noise — not repo-actionable
The help-text dumped on every commit comes from `.git/hooks/*`
bd-installed shims (**local, untracked git state**) — fixable only by a
bd-tool change or a local `bd hooks` reinstall, nothing committable in
agentops. Documented as resolved-here-not-applicable (the dump even
appears in this PR's own commit step).

## 3. Drop dead `hooks/` scan — `check-agents-write-surfaces.sh`
`hooks/` doesn't exist post-3.0-teardown, so the `[[ -d hooks ]]` scan
was a guaranteed no-op. Removed it + its comment. **Kept**
`writer["hooks"]` — `hooks` remains a valid *opt-in* writer-surface
label per `docs/contracts/agents-write-surfaces.md` (only the dead
directory scan was vestigial, not the classifier vocabulary).

## Verification
- `sync-skill-counts.sh --check` → PASS; guard FAILs on an injected
`82→99` drift (confirmed it bites)
- `check-agents-write-surfaces.sh` → PASS (68 referenced subdirs, all
documented); **24/24 bats green**
- `shellcheck` clean on both scripts

Bo e74d8899fd feat(ci): gate live-hooks reintroduction in docs/ (ag-rryf #doc-hooks-drift-gate) (#713)
## What

Adds `scripts/check-doc-hooks-drift.sh` — a CI regression guard that
fails when a **live-facing** doc reintroduces a live hooks runtime after
the 3.0 hookless teardown:

- `hooks/hooks.json` (retired manifest), a `hooks/<name>.sh` runtime
path,
- `ao hooks` (not a registered command — verified absent from
`cli/cmd/ao/`),
- a bare `session-{start,end,autostart}*.sh` hook-file ref

…unless the **same line** hedges it as hookless / opt-in / historical /
removed / a git-hook. Companion to `sync-skill-counts.sh` (skill-count
drift) and `check-hookless-cold-start.sh` (fixed-list cold-start gate).

## Scope (and why the exclusions)

`docs/` **minus** surfaces that legitimately/archivally name hooks:
- **archival history** — `CHANGELOG.md`, `releases/`, `learnings/`,
`plans/`, `adr/`, `convergence/`, `sovereignty-proof/` (document the
past / the removal itself)
- **opt-in subsystem** — `contracts/` (hooks-authoring opt-in specs),
`runbooks/` (diagnostic enumeration), `code-map/` (point-in-time audits)

The gate keeps the onboarding / operator / architecture narrative
hookless.

## Also: finishes the ag-t1ca residue the gate flags

The ag-t1ca de-hooking missed 8 live-facing lines (gate caught them);
each is reframed:
- stale `ao hooks` command/smoke refs → removed / `ao doctor`
(`cli-skills-map`, `UPGRADING`, `release-e2e-checklist`,
`contracts/release-readiness`)
- present-tense hooks-as-rules → CI gates (`strategic-direction`)
- hook-runtime mentions → `ao curate constrain` / opt-in framing
(`curation-pipeline`, `leverage-points`, `SCHEMAS` legacy-manifest
label, `workflows/session-lifecycle`)

## Verification

- `scripts/check-doc-hooks-drift.sh` → PASS on this branch (FAILed on
all 8 before the reframes)
- `tests/scripts/check-doc-hooks-drift.bats` → 8/8 (positive /
negative×3 / hedge×2 / exclusion / no-docs error)
- `shellcheck` clean · `markdownlint` 0 errors (9 docs) ·
`validate-cli-skills-map.sh` PASS · `generate-ci-jobs-table.sh --check`
PASS · existing `check-hookless-cold-start.sh` still green
- Wired into `validate.yml` lint/contracts (gated on docs/ci/shell
changes) + auto-run via the bats suite

Bo 02659e7b44 docs: fix GLOSSARY skill count (66→82, gated) + portable test-debt path (ag-j4tw #counts) (#709)
## What

Verified-clean subset of the second-wave counts/misc bead (ag-j4tw).

- **GLOSSARY.md:170** "ships 66 shared skills" → 82, and **extended
`sync-skill-counts.sh`** to cover the call-site so it self-heals and CI
catches future drift (same gate pattern as ag-bcl4).
- **test-architecture-debt-analysis.md:3** hardcoded Mac path
`/Users/fullerbt/…/cli/cmd/ao/` → repo-relative `cli/cmd/ao/`.

## Verify-first dropped FALSE POSITIVES
Applying the session's recurring lesson (audit agents over-flag):
- ENV-VARS `COUNCIL_EXPLORER_MODEL/TIMEOUT`, `COUNCIL_R2_TIMEOUT` are
**live** (consumed by `skills/council/`, not `cli/` — the audit only
grepped cli/).
- `MEMRL_MODE` exists (3 files); `rg-optimized.md:70` is blank; ROADMAP
"hookless S2–S5" is a real follow-on; `ao inject` is live.

## Still open (ag-j4tw stays open)
- agentops-brief.md / agentops-system-map.md counts are entangled in
**hook-diagram lines** → handle with ag-t1ca.
- TESTING.md `tests/hooks/` (hooks) + testing-skills.md
`tests/_quarantine/claude-code` → `tests/claude-code` (larger path
rework).

Bo 1b3ab1c892 docs(governance): remove the hooks dimension from cli-skills-map.md (ag-xhhf #dehooks) (#707)
## What

`cli-skills-map.md` was pervasively built on the pre-3.0 runtime hook
surface — title "CLI ↔ Skills/**Hooks** Wiring Map", a "Hook Callers"
column on every CLI row, a "## Hooks → Commands" section, a
hook-chaining "Session Lifecycle Flow", the `hooks.json` source note,
and a `hooks/finding-compiler.sh` reference. AgentOps 3.0 ships zero
hooks, so all of that documented a removed runtime. Decomposed from
ag-xa2b (the phantom-skill fix shipped in #705).

## Changes
- Retitled → "CLI ↔ Skills Wiring Map"; dropped hooks framing (header,
`hooks.json` note, "12 runtime hook event sections").
- Removed the "Hook Callers" column; the two rows with **only** hook
callers (`ao memory`, `ao extract`) moved to Orphan Commands (still
valid direct commands).
- Replaced "## Hooks → Commands" + hook-chaining lifecycle with a
"Session Lifecycle Flow (hookless)" section (the Codex ensure-start/stop
model).
- `validate-cli-skills-map.sh`: removed the now-impossible
SessionStart-hook-table assertion (the required section no longer
exists). Count-line + phantom-subcommand checks unchanged.

## Verification
- `scripts/validate-cli-skills-map.sh` → **PASS** (76 generated CLI
command headings)
- `tests/docs/validate-doc-release.sh` → **PASS**
- No residual `hooks/` / `hooks.json` / "Hook Callers" refs in the doc

## What

Two verified bd-command doc/contract bugs discovered while executing the
ag-lk80 doc-staleness epic.

| Bead | Fix |
|---|---|
| ag-55m0 | `bd worktree create --branch <branch>` (4 sites: CLAUDE.md
×2, AGENTS-WORKFLOW.md ×2) omits bd 1.0.5's **required positional
`<name>`** — the documented form prints help and creates nothing. Now
`bd worktree create wt-<bead-id> --branch <branch>`. |
| ag-6jzv | `validate-bd-closeout-contract.sh` required the `bd dolt
push` conditional wording in **AGENTS.md**, but the tiered split
(soc-vuu6.3) moved that content to **AGENTS-WORKFLOW.md** (lines
150/277). Repointed the validator where the wording actually lives. |

## Verification
- `bd worktree create --help` → confirms the positional `<name>`
requirement (hit live this session)
- `scripts/validate-bd-closeout-contract.sh` → **PASS** (was failing on
AGENTS.md on pristine main)
- No `bd worktree create --branch` without a positional name remains in

Bo b8731a4378 docs(audit): remediate stale root + key docs — hookless refs, skill counts, retired CI jobs (ag-lk80 #staleness-fixes) (#705)
## What

Remediates verified staleness from the 2026-06-03 doc audit of root
governance/product docs + the key `docs/` cluster. Two systemic rot
patterns drove almost every finding: **skill-count drift** (73/78/~80 vs
truth 82) and **hooks references that survived the 3.0 hookless
teardown**.

All fixes independently verified against `cli/**`, `scripts/**`,
`.github/workflows/validate.yml`, and `skills/**`.

## Changes (by bead)

| Bead | Sev | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| ag-swi1 | CRIT | `newcomer-guide.md`: removed hooks-as-runtime-layer
framing (3.0 ships zero hooks); 5→4 layers; fixed dead
`scripts/install-dev-hooks.sh` ref; reframed hooks as opt-in via
`hooks-authoring` skill |
| ag-99xv | CRIT | `index.md`: skill count 73→82. **The "broken catalog
link" was a false positive** — `docs/skills/catalog.md` is generated at
build by `gen_skill_pages.py`; link left unchanged |
| ag-xa2b | CRIT | `cli-skills-map.md`: removed 5 phantom skills
(`pr-plan`, `pr-retro`, `update`, `readme`, `oss-docs`) an agent could
mis-invoke. Deep hooks-decoupling of this file (title, "Hook Callers"
column, "Hooks → Commands" section) **decomposed to a follow-up** —
half-editing leaves it internally inconsistent |
| ag-w4t8 | CRIT | `AGENTS-CI.md`: dropped retired advisory rows
`practice-citations` (RETIRED 2026-05-19) and
`factory-claim-ledger-strict` (no such job; references nonexistent file)
|
| ag-bcl4 | HIGH | `index.md` + `documentation-index.md`: counts → 82,
**and extended `sync-skill-counts.sh`** to cover both call-sites so the
count self-heals and CI (`validate-doc-release.sh` → `sync --check`)
catches future drift — the durable fix, not just retyping the number |
| ag-p7zg | HIGH | `CLAUDE.md`: aligned Ship-phase pre-push command to
`scripts/pre-push-gate.sh --fast`, matching `AGENTS-WORKFLOW.md` |
| ag-y5ii | MED | `documentation-index.md`: dropped stale "hooks" from
the how-it-works description |

## Deferred (filed as follow-up beads, not in this PR)

- PRODUCT.md "April 2026 Claude Code source analysis" reframe — product
positioning, operator's call
- Full hooks-decoupling of `cli-skills-map.md` — structural rework,
needs its own verification
- `bd worktree create --branch` syntax is wrong in
CLAUDE.md/AGENTS-WORKFLOW.md (needs a positional name) — discovered this
session
- `validate-bd-closeout-contract.sh` requires `bd dolt push` conditional
wording in AGENTS.md that the AGENTS split dropped (pre-existing main
red, local-only gate)
- Second-wave sweep of the remaining ~80 `docs/` files (ag-bz8n)

## Verification

covered)
- `scripts/validate-cli-skills-map.sh` → PASS
- `tests/docs/validate-doc-release.sh` → PASS
- No residual `hooks/` / `hooks.json` runtime refs in

Bo 215fcef720 feat(eval): held corpus-delta tasks cd-ci-1 + cd-ci-4 (ag-nfux #approved-tasks-ci1-ci4) (#703)
## What
Materializes the **two operator-vetted** W1b tasks (the only 2 the
adversarial audit passed as clean: `.agents/`-grounded,
principle-not-answer, deterministically gradeable).

- **cd-ci-1** — author an advisory-tier guard gate. Grounds in
`.agents/learnings/2026-05-17-ci-advisory-killed.md`; the agent must
build `check-no-advisory-tier.sh`.
- **cd-ci-4** — author a removed-job assertion pre-flight gate. Grounds
in `.agents/learnings/2026-05-17-delete-grep-asserts.md`; the agent must
build `check-removed-job-assertions.sh`.

Each task ships `prompt.md` + `setup.sh` + `score.sh` (deterministic,
no-LLM grader) + a `golden-solution.sh` reference (**not** given to the
agent). The grounding learning lives in `.agents/`, so the W1a sandbox
(ag-5apc) surfaces it in `context_on` and strips it in `context_off` → a
real delta.

## Grader-discrimination test
The task fixtures' own validity: each grader scores the **golden
solution PASS** and an **empty workspace FAIL** — a grader that can't
tell the difference would make the A/B meaningless. 5/5 bats pass;
shellcheck clean on all 6 task scripts.

## N note
This is the honest **N=2** starting set. The adversarial audit showed
N≥10 isn't reachable from the first drafting slate without a second
`.agents/`-only pass; a rigorous small-N beats a large rigged one (per
the product panel). **ag-nfux stays open** for N expansion.

Bo e6ec5561df fix(eval): strip always-loaded roots in context_off (ag-5apc #strip-always-loaded) (#702)
## What
Fixes the contamination flaw the W1b adversarial audit surfaced:
isolating `AO_AGENTS_DIR` alone is **insufficient** — the agent also
auto-loads knowledge from **always-loaded roots** (repo-root
`CLAUDE.md`, `.claude/rules/*`, user-global `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md`,
auto-memory `MEMORY.md`), read in **both** arms → no delta to measure (6
of 12 W1b candidates were invalidated by this).

Each arm now runs in an isolated **sandbox** (HOME + workspace). Those
surfaces are treated as **corpus** — populated in `context_on`, absent
from `context_off`:
- `build_arm_sandbox()` — ON copies project CLAUDE.md + .claude/rules +
user CLAUDE.md + auto-memory + the .agents corpus; OFF leaves them out
(and strips any base-carried context).
- `CORPUS_DELTA_HOME_BASE` seeds auth/settings into both arms **before**
context, so a real agent keeps credentials while OFF stays context-clean
(off = base − context, on = base + context).
- Runner now gets `HOME` + `AO_AGENTS_DIR` + `CORPUS_DELTA_WORKSPACE`; a
real agent MUST run with that HOME + cwd=workspace.

## Contamination self-test (the bead's success criterion)
A marker seeded into **every** always-loaded root reaches `context_on`
but **NOT** `context_off` (delta=1); a separate test proves auth
(`HOME_BASE`) survives both arms while base-carried context is stripped
from off.

## Verification
7/7 bats pass; shellcheck clean. No `ao` surface; no derived-surface
regen. Unblocks honest W1b/W1c.

Bo 8ad336122f feat(eval): corpus-delta A/B side-harness (ag-u6jh #harness) (#701)
## What
Wave-1a of the corpus-delta proof (ag-8p8o) — the runnable arm.

The deterministic eval runner rejects non-shell runtimes ("out of
deterministic scope", `cli/internal/eval/io.go`) and is CI-locked, so
this is a **side harness** — *not* an extension of that runner, and
**not a new `ao` subcommand** (no CLI surface growth, per the
minimalist/competitive lenses).

- **`scripts/corpus-delta-harness.sh`** — runs one task in two context
arms: `context_off` (isolated **empty** `AO_AGENTS_DIR`) vs `context_on`
(organic `--corpus` root), K seeds each → a
`ContextDeltaScorecard`-shaped JSON (matches the Go struct fields). The
agent runner is **injectable** (`CORPUS_DELTA_RUNNER`, default
`eval-agent-harness.sh --agent claude|codex`) so it's testable **without
LLM calls**.
- **`tests/scripts/corpus-delta-harness.bats`** — 5 cases via a stub
runner: off(empty)→fail, on(corpus)→pass, delta=1.0; no-delta when arms
match; scorecard shape; `--out`; arg validation.

## Honesty guard (baked in)
The script header, test comments, and `evidence_kind:
"harness_plumbing"` all state: **a stub/plumbing run is NOT evidence of
the corpus delta.** The real claim needs a real agent + held
non-engineered tasks + K seeds (ag-nfux W1b, ag-epgk W1c). This
explicitly avoids repeating the wave0 confusion of citing plumbing as
proof.

## Verification
5/5 bats pass; shellcheck clean. No ao is the CLI for AgentOps, a
software-factory control plane for repo-native agent work.

Bo 81aec49b1c chore(tests): test-isolation ratchet + migrate testutil chdir helpers to t.Chdir (ag-k38x #lint-ratchet) (#699)
## What
Lands the durable mechanism for ag-k38x (codebase-audit P2-1/P2-2): raw
`os.Chdir`/`os.Setenv` in tests mutate process-global cwd/env — a latent
flake landmine once any test opts into `t.Parallel` (cf. **ag-jfzs**,
the memory-sync flake of exactly this class).

The repo has ~163 `os.Chdir` + 22 `os.Setenv` inline sites across 34
files in **non-uniform patterns** (`defer` / `t.Cleanup` / `defer
func(){}()` with reversed order) — a blind sweep would break the suite.
So this ships the **durable gate + the canonical lever**, not a risky
80-site mass-edit:

- **`scripts/check-test-isolation.sh`** — a baseline ratchet (163/22)
wired into the **process-hygiene** job: raw `os.Chdir`/`os.Setenv` in
`*_test.go` may not **grow**; new code must use `t.Chdir`/`t.Setenv` or
the testutil helpers. This pre-empts the flake class from spreading.
- **`testutil_test.go`** — `chdirTemp`/`chdirTo` migrated from
`os.Chdir`+`t.Cleanup` to `t.Chdir` (the shared helpers most tests
delegate to; canonical example).

## Follow-up
The bulk inline-site migration drives the baseline toward zero
incrementally — **ag-k38x stays open** for it (scenario
`#bulk-migration`). Decomposing an ~80-site, non-uniform migration into
*gate-the-growth now + reduce-incrementally* is the responsible path; a
one-shot sed would be the reckless one.

## Verification
Ratchet PASSes at baseline AND catches a synthetic increase; shellcheck
+ `validate-ci-policy-parity` green; `go vet` clean; chdir-helper-caller
tests pass under `-race`.

Bo 6685eac0c9 feat(skills): bd-first memory migration — Phase 2 migrate (ag-5u50 #phase2-migrate) (#692)
## Phase 2 — migrate salvaged memory onto bd (epic `ag-5u50`)

**Stacked on #691 (Phase 1).** Review/merge that first; this PR's diff
is Phase-2-only.

Second arc of the **bd-first-memory-migration** skill: take the Gate-A
keepers and stand up bd as the single source of truth — typed memories
with provenance, decay-ranked recall, a generated MEMORY.md cache, and
one unified write path.

### What's in it (beads ag-5u50.10–.14)
- **`.11` `mem.py`** — typed wrapper over bd keys (fenced `<!--mem-->`
header), injectable `BdStore`/`FakeStore` adapter, `parse`/`render` +
**decay-rank** per DATA-MODEL.
- **`.12` `recall.py`** — decay-ranked, token-budgeted recall; bumps
`access_count` (the read signal feeding utility/promotion).
- **`.14` `gen_memory_md.py`** — regenerate the thin, read-only
MEMORY.md cache from bd (permanently fixes the bloat mode).
- **`.13` `remember.py`** — unified write entrypoint (all harnesses →
bd).
- **`.10` `import_memories.py`** — idempotent salvage import with
provenance + import-ledger, **write-paced** (bd auto-commit OOM guard),
`--dry-run`.

### Verification
- **11 hermetic L2 tests** (`tests/test_phase2_migrate.py`), no
`bd`/`ao` dependency — round-trip, decay ordering, supersede exclusion,
episodic-vs-feedback decay, access bump, idempotent import, dry-run,
write-path provenance — all green (17 total with Phase 1).
- **7 Gherkin scenarios** (`references/migrate.feature`).
- Scripts 100-col clean; codex twin hashes refreshed; full local gate
sweep green (skill-lint, codex artifacts/coverage, registry,
context-map, counts, three-gap).

> **CI note:** opened on **local-green** — GitHub Actions stopped
dispatching workflow runs repo-wide ~20:20 (a GitHub-side outage/quota
issue, not this code). All gates verified locally; cloud CI will run
once dispatch recovers.

### Scope guardrails
Writes to bd only — no Phase-3 GC/retire here (that's gated behind the
rollback test). The destructive dogfood on the live box stays
human-gated (Gate C).

Bo eba83ad11b feat(ci): committed reconcile-pr + no-epic-close-with-open-child gate (ag-9gac #reconcile-helper-epic-gate) (#669)
Promotes the ephemeral `/tmp` bead-crank reconcile engine (ran ~20x this
session) to committed, **tested, enforced** scripts. Turns S3's advisory
prose into executable gates.

## What lands
- **`scripts/reconcile-pr.sh <pr> <bead> [--epic <epic>]`** — polls
checks until terminal, reruns the lone `correctness (ubuntu-latest)`
tar-cache flake **once**, treats only substantive non-`claude-review`
fails as blocking, `gh pr merge --squash --admin` when clean, confirms
`gh pr view --json state == MERGED`, then `bd update <bead> --status
closed` (bd close has a dolt blocker-query glitch). `--epic` mode calls
the gate before closing the epic.
- **`scripts/check-epic-children-closed.sh <epic>`** — the
**no-epic-close-with-open-child** gate: exit 1 naming any
open/in_progress child, exit 0 when all closed.
- **15 hermetic bats** (`gh`+`bd` stubbed via PATH shims) — prove
merge+close on green, BLOCK (exit 2) on a substantive fail,
rerun-once-then-merge on the lone flake, no-close when state != MERGED,
gate rejects+names an open child, passes when all closed. shellcheck -S
warning clean.
- **crank/evolve SKILL.md** prose now points to the committed scripts
(tiny edits).

## Exit-code contract (asserted in tests)
`0` merged+closed · `1` epic-gate fail (open child) · `2` blocked
(substantive fail) · `3` merge attempted but state != MERGED · `4`
usage/dep error.

## Gates
- shellcheck -S warning: CLEAN (both scripts)
- `bats tests/scripts/{reconcile-pr,check-epic-children-closed}.bats`:
15/15 pass
- `scripts/regen-all.sh --check --skills crank,evolve`: ALL GATES GREEN
- Diff scope-only: 2 scripts + 2 bats + 2 skill pointers + 3 codex hash
files (source_hash bumps). Pre-existing `docs/cli-surface.*` main drift
reverted, not swept in.

Orchestrator helpers (not necessarily CI jobs) — wired as enforcement
for the crank/evolve close discipline.

Bo 7c10303184 chore(ci): regen-codex-hashes --only scoping + regen-all passthrough (ag-fbe9 #regen-scoping) (#664)
## What

Adds `--only <skill[,skill,...]>` to `scripts/regen-codex-hashes.sh` and
threads it through `scripts/regen-all.sh` (`--skills` arg /
`REGEN_SKILLS` env), so an agent can regenerate codex hashes for **only
the skills it touched**.

## Why

From `.agents/retro/2026-05-31-bead-crank-postmortem.md` §5 (#1-2): the
codex hash regen rewrites every drifted manifest entry, sweeping ~8-9
pre-existing drifts into every skill PR and forcing a manual
`jq`-splice. Scoping the loop kills that toil.

## Changes

- **`regen-codex-hashes.sh`**: `--only` parses a skill set; the
per-skill loop `continue`s when a skill isn't in the set. `--check`
honors the same scope. Default (no flag) = all skills, unchanged.
`SKILLS_ROOT` is now env-overridable (enables hermetic testing).
- **`regen-all.sh`**: `--skills a,b` / `REGEN_SKILLS=a,b` threads
`--only` into the codex-hash step in both regen and `--check` modes;
trailing NOTE instructs passing scope when only some skills changed.
- **`tests/scripts/regen-codex-hashes-only.bats`**: hermetic — `--only
foo` regenerates only foo and leaves a simulated pre-existing-drift
sibling untouched; no-`--only` regenerates all; `--check` scoping;
comma-list; arg-required.

## Verification

- `bats tests/scripts/regen-codex-hashes-only.bats` — 5/5 pass
- `shellcheck -S warning` clean on both scripts
- `git diff origin/main --stat` scope-only (2 scripts + 1 bats)
- The 9 manifest drifts on `main` (deps, post-mortem, provenance,
red-team, release, scenario, ship-loop, skill-builder, trace) are
**pre-existing**; this PR touches zero `skills-codex/` files.

Bo 0dcbae450c fix(loop): re-enforce session-PR-scope hooklessly + fix stale hook refs (ag-o5xp #session-pr-scope) (#661)
## Problem

The session-PR-scope guardrail shipped as a PreToolUse hook
(`hooks/session-pr-counter.sh`, PR #362), but **PR #511 (the 3.0
hookless teardown) deleted all hooks**. Six workflow-discipline surfaces
were never updated — they still advertise the hook as a live, shipping
mechanism. That's a **stale active-surface promise + a lost reliability
guardrail** (surfaced by the ag-4hf7 Google-SRE audit:
"explainability/trust" turned inward).

## Hookless re-enforcement (the decision)

- **The mandatory layer already survives**: the `/evolve` post-mortem
checkpoint #6 (council-gated, cannot be bypassed) enforces session-scope
for autonomous loops — the actual failure mode. It only lacked a
canonical count source.
- **New `scripts/session-pr-scope.sh`** — the reusable hookless count +
verdict (`OK`/`WARN`/`BLOCK`), fail-open, robot-friendly
(`--json`/`--count`). It is now:
  - the checkpoint's `$session_pr_count` source, and
- the one-liner an **opt-in** hook wraps (re-author via the
hooks-authoring skill — AgentOps ships none).
- 8 bats cases (thresholds, block-mode exit code, fail-open); shellcheck
clean.

## Stale-doc truth (6 surfaces, all hedged)

CLAUDE.md · AGENTS-WORKFLOW.md · skills/ship-loop/SKILL.md · the evolve
postmortem-checkpoint (skills/, skills-codex/, packs overlay — kept in
parity; codex hashes regenerated for **evolve + ship-loop only**, the 7
pre-existing drifts left untouched).

## Ratchet (knowledge → a constraint)

Extend `check-hookless-cold-start.sh` to cover these workflow-discipline
surfaces — reversing the now-stale CLAUDE.md carve-out — so this exact
drift class **cannot recur**. Gate scope 5 → 10 surfaces; its bats test
stays green. (This is the "knowledge becomes a constraint" invariant the
whole ag-4hf7 thread identified as our edge — applied to the very gap
that thread surfaced.)

## Verification

- `bats tests/scripts/session-pr-scope.bats` → 8/8
- `bash scripts/check-hookless-cold-start.sh` → PASS (10 surfaces)
- `check-hookless-cold-start.bats` → 5/5 ·
`validate-codex-generated-artifacts.sh --scope head` → pass ·
wiring-closure → pass · shellcheck clean · overlay ≡ source

Bo 81c9f305ac feat(ci): witness Dolt->JSONL re-derive + hash-compare (ag-lmdx.3 #witness-crosscheck) (#656)
## What

The **watcher that watches the watcher** (ag-lmdx.3). A blocking CI gate
that re-derives the hash-chained JSONL witness **from the Dolt
projection** and hash-compares it against the git-committed witness
ledger — proving Dolt is a *faithful projection* of the canonical event
log.

This is the **inverse** of drrebuild (#646): drrebuild rebuilds the Dolt
context graph FROM the witness (JSONL + git blobs); this rebuilds the
witness FROM Dolt rows. Together they pin both ends of the projection.
Dolt history is rewritable (reset/--force/root) so it is NOT
tamper-evidence; the git-anchored JSONL witness is. A Dolt rewrite that
did not also rewrite the committed witness is caught here, and nowhere
else.

## How

- `cli/internal/drwitness/` — re-derive + cross-check core. Reuses
drrebuild's exact hash discipline (`ComputeEventHashes`: payload_hash =
sha256(canonical-JSON), hash = sha256(payload_hash + "\n" + prev_hash))
and canonical edge ordering. Re-derivation is order-independent
(canonical sort then re-seal), which is what makes the hash-compare
meaningful.
- `cli/cmd/witness-crosscheck/` — standalone helper main (like
`cmd/skill-frontmatter-json`), **NOT** an `ao` subcommand (no CLI
surface added).
- `scripts/witness-dolt-jsonl-crosscheck.sh` — hermetic CI gate. CI has
no live Dolt, so it drives committed fixtures through the helper and
asserts the gate fires correctly.
- `tests/scripts/` + `tests/fixtures/witness/` — bats behavioral proof.

## Scenarios (acceptance)

- **Clean state passes** — the faithful Dolt projection re-derives to
the committed witness; gate exits 0.
- **Tampered Dolt fails** — a rewritten Dolt row no longer matches the
committed witness head; helper reports `DIVERGED`, gate exits non-zero.

## Verification

- `go build ./... && go vet ./... && go test ./...` (full suite: 11948
passed / 71 pkgs; drwitness: 7/7)
- `bats tests/scripts/witness-dolt-jsonl-crosscheck.bats` — 6/6
- `shellcheck -S warning` — clean
- `scripts/validate-ci-policy-parity.sh` — PASS

Bo 46f0768ed8 feat(swarm): wave pre-gate node-state ownership disjoint (ag-lmdx.6 #wave-ownership-disjoint) (#655)
## What

Adds `scripts/check-wave-ownership-disjoint.sh` — a wave **pre-gate**
that, before spawning a parallel wave of agents, asserts each slice's
owned **node-state** set is pairwise-disjoint. Overlap means two agents
would concurrently transition the same artifact's state — a genuine Dolt
cell conflict on the `context_artifact` state projection / append-only
`state_transition` log (the real convergence invariant from the ag-lmdx
Dolt-expert review). File-disjointness
(`check-file-manifest-overlap.sh`) is only the weak textual shadow of
this.

## Behavior

Input: JSON array of `{id, subject, owns[]}` slices (file arg or stdin).
- **Overlap** → exit 1, names the contended node-state and the
conflicting slice pair, "wave NOT spawned" (Scenario: *Overlapping node
ownership blocks the wave*).
- **Disjoint** → exit 0, "wave may spawn" (Scenario: *Disjoint ownership
proceeds*).
- Slice with no declared ownership → blocked (cannot prove
disjointness).
- Bad usage/input → exit 2. Missing `jq`/old bash → soft skip.

## Tests / gates

- `tests/scripts/check-wave-ownership-disjoint.bats` — 11 hermetic tests
(both scenarios + exact exit codes 0/1/2, stdin, empty, undeclared,
duplicate-within-slice, three-slice).
- `shellcheck -S warning` clean; `bash -n` clean.

Scope is two new files; no `validate.yml`/skill wiring (follow-up).

Bo a6336b7c34 feat(provenance): ao provenance trace --orphans --strict gate (ag-x31t.6 #provenance-orphan-gate) (#653)
## What

Adds `ao provenance trace --orphans --strict`: detects provenance
orphans — artifact nodes with **no inbound authored/inferred edge** — by
generalizing the `goals_trace_orphans` no-inbound chain-gap detection
onto the provenance graph. Wires it as a blocking CI gate.

## How

- **`cli/internal/provenancegraph/orphans.go`** — `ReadGraphRecords`
(parses the goalstrace `Node`/`Edge` JSONL contract that the seeded
fixtures use) + `FindOrphans` (an artifact node is an orphan iff no
edge's `to_id` targets it; it flips green the moment any inbound edge is
added).
- **`cli/cmd/ao/provenance_trace.go`** — the `trace --orphans [--strict]
[--json] [--graph <path>]` subcommand. `--strict` exits non-zero when
orphans exist; `--json` emits one finding per line.
- **`scripts/check-provenance-orphans.sh`** + a new **blocking** step in
`.github/workflows/validate.yml` (in the existing goals/spec-linkage
job, right after the warn-only `ao goals trace --orphans`). The gate
asserts the strict audit **catches** each seeded orphan fixture and
**passes** once an inbound edge wires the artifact back to a directive —
so it is deterministically green while proving the detector is wired.

## Tests (TDD-first)

- `cli/cmd/ao/provenance_trace_test.go` (L2): drives the real
`tests/fixtures/provenance/` fixtures against `expected-orphans.json` —
`--strict` catches each of the 3 seeded orphans

Bo 03e365bb92 feat(validate): generate+check tests-from-scenarios coverage (ag-9jle.4 #tests-from-scenarios) (#648)
## What

Adds the C2 "tests-from-scenarios" leaf gate (ag-9jle.4): a per-bead,
forward-from-Gherkin scenario→test coverage check, plus wiring into the
leaf validators `/vibe` and `/test`.

`scripts/check-bead-scenario-coverage.sh` parses a bead's `## Scenarios`
block (via `--bead <id>`), a `.feature` file, or stdin, and **FAILS if
any scenario lacks a `@covered-by:<test-path>` link**. With `--run` it
also executes each covering test and requires it to PASS — not merely
exist. This is the distinction the bead calls out: "tests exist" or a
coverage percentage is not sufficient.

This is the **per-slice sibling** of the existing corpus-wide
`scripts/check-scenario-test-linkage.sh` (which sweeps every `.feature`
under `skills/*/references/` in CI). They share the `@covered-by:`
convention so a scenario authored once carries linkage to both. No new
`ao` subcommand (avoids cli-command-surface churn); no symlinks (codex
twins copied).

## Why

Audit ag-9jle.1 found C2 weak: vibe/validate check test-pyramid
*presence*, `test` checks coverage %, review uses a checkbox; only
`/validation` enforced scenario→passing-test mapping and only at the
bypassable roll-up. This makes the check mechanical and moves it to the
leaf (vibe Step 2g.1, test Step 0a), working forward from behavior.

## How it's tested

`tests/scripts/check-bead-scenario-coverage.bats` — 19 hermetic cases:
M>=N gate, bead-body + `.feature` inputs, `--run` pass vs fail, dangling
`@covered-by`, `::Name` resolution, threshold override, `--json`, stdin,
`## Scenarios`-block scoping, misuse exits. The gate is dogfooded: it
passes on its own bead ag-9jle.4 (`--run` executes this very bats file).

## Gates

- `bats tests/scripts/check-bead-scenario-coverage.bats` — 19/19 pass
- `shellcheck scripts/check-bead-scenario-coverage.sh` — clean
- `bash scripts/check-codex-parity-drift.sh` — no drift (codex twins
mirrored)
- `bash tests/skills/run-all.sh` — 87/0 pass

Bo 2c5d93e16b feat(ci): scripts/check-proof-coherence.sh (soc-57hbj #proof-coherence) (#647)
## What

Proof-coherence gate for the reconciliation engine (Wave 3C). Two axes
(plan: `.agents/plans/2026-05-07-reconciliation-engine-full-arc.md`):
claim coherence (advisory) and **proof coherence** (claim-ledger row →
daemon criterion-verdict event, **blocking for L2/L3 claims**). This PR
ships proof coherence.

## Coherence predicate

For every L2/L3 claim-ledger row, each `evidence_event_refs[]` entry
must:
1. resolve to a daemon event matching `event_type`+`run_id`
(+`criterion_id` if named) — else **DANGLING**;
2. carry `verdict: pass` — else **FAILED** (demote).

An L2/L3 row with zero refs is **UNBACKED**. L0/L1 rows are not gated.

## Forward-compatible

Wave 1's claim ledger and Wave 3B's `evidence_event_refs` schema haven't
landed, so with no ledger present the gate is a **PASS no-op** — it
lands as blocking CI surface now and becomes load-bearing automatically
once L2/L3 rows appear. Inputs auto-discover
(`docs/contracts/factory-claim-ledger{,.example}.json`,
`cli/.agents/daemon/ledger.jsonl`), overridable via
`--ledger`/`--events`.

## Output / exit codes

Text (default) + `--json`. Exit `0` coherent / no ledger · `1`
incoherent · `2` usage|env.

## Tests

`tests/scripts/check-proof-coherence.bats` — 13 hermetic cases, exact
exit codes + messages, both drift directions (missing event + failed
verdict), unbacked L2/L3, L0/L1 ungated, no-ledger no-op, JSON
pass/fail, malformed-ledger + bad-flag env errors.

## Gates

- `shellcheck -S warning scripts/check-proof-coherence.sh` — clean.
- `bats tests/scripts/check-proof-coherence.bats` — 13/13 pass.
- `git diff origin/main --stat` — scope-only (the two intended files).

## Scope note

validate.yml wiring deferred: a no-op until the ledger ships (Wave 1/3B
precondition); wiring lands with the first L2/L3 ledger row.

Bo 0bc1b5a7ee chore(ci): enforce worktree-disposition discipline + prune gate (ag-4oj9.2 #worktree-disposition) (#642)
## What

Closes the CI-gate gap in the worktree-disposition discipline
(ag-4oj9.2). The repo's `bd worktree create` flow accumulates abandoned
tmp worktrees; detection + prune already existed (`gc-stale-worktrees.sh
--apply`, live `check-worktree-disposition.sh`), but nothing **gated**
against an undisposed worktree that gets *committed* into the tree.

- **New `--check-committed` mode** on `scripts/gc-stale-worktrees.sh`:
scans tracked paths (`git ls-files`) for committed tmp-worktree
artifacts — `agentops-*-{merge,rpi*,wt}`, `*-wt/`, `.codex/worktrees/` —
and fails non-zero. Read-only: never touches the working tree, never
removes anything. Uses the existing `--git-common-dir` parent (never
`--show-toplevel`) for main-checkout safety.
- **Wired into `scripts/pre-push-gate.sh`** (step 7a), unconditionally —
it inspects only tracked paths so it is cheap and CI-safe (the live
worktree list is empty on a fresh CI checkout; this catches what CI
*can* see). Auto-runs in CI via the existing `bats tests/scripts/*.bats`
step.
- **Bats coverage**: pass-on-clean, fail-on-committed-tmp-tree (two
naming families), no-false-positive on ordinary source, and a
read-only/no-mutation assertion against the main checkout.

## Why

Undisposed worktrees are statelessness entropy — branch state no agent
owns. The disposition contract (AGENTS-RUNTIME.md) was documented but
not gated against the committed-artifact case. This makes it impossible
for a tmp worktree to land on `main`.

## Gates
- `shellcheck -S warning` — PASS (both scripts)
- `bats tests/scripts/gc-stale-worktrees.bats` — 18/18 PASS
- `scripts/validate-ci-policy-parity.sh` — PASS (no
validate.yml/manifest change; new bats picked up by existing step)
- `git diff origin/main --stat` — scope-only (3 files)

Bo 004fcbc249 feat(provenance): agentops-sdlc-provenance.v1 ledger-event schema (ag-x31t.2 #provenance-schema) (#637)
## What

Adds `schemas/agentops-sdlc-provenance.v1.schema.json` — the JSON Schema
(draft-07) that formally defines one event of the committed, per-record
hash-chained provenance ledger at `docs/provenance/ledger.jsonl` (schema
id `agentops-sdlc-provenance.v1`, referenced by CLAUDE.md and the
ag-x31t council architecture).

Each event = one typed provenance edge `{from_id, from_type, to_id,
to_type, relation, evidence_ref, trust_tier(authored|inferred|mined),
ts}` plus export-time hash-chain fields `{prev_hash, payload_hash,
hash}` mirroring `cli/internal/rpi/ledger.go` chaining semantics
(`payload_hash` = sha256 over the edge payload; `hash` =
sha256(payload_hash + "\n" + prev_hash)).

## Acceptance (ag-x31t.2)

> First failing test: validates a `decision_produces_artifact` edge,
rejects one missing `trust_tier`.

- `scripts/validate-provenance-ledger.sh` — python `jsonschema` (Draft7)
validator with `--selftest` and `--jsonl` modes, mirroring
`validate-outcomes-rubric.sh`; SKIPs gracefully when jsonschema is
unavailable.
- `tests/scripts/validate-provenance-ledger.bats` — 12 checks. A
`decision_produces_artifact` edge VALIDATES; an otherwise-identical edge
missing `trust_tier` is REJECTED. Structural-JSON checks are the
always-on guard (run without jsonschema).
-
`tests/fixtures/provenance/{valid-decision-produces-artifact,invalid-missing-trust-tier}.json`
— fixtures with real sha256 chain hashes.

TDD verified: the selftest FAILS when the schema is edited to drop the
`trust_tier` requirement, PASSES when restored.

## Scope

Schema + validator + test only. Does **not** create/edit
`docs/provenance/ledger.jsonl`, the write-model (ag-x31t.4), export
(ag-x31t.5), or gate (ag-x31t.6). No symlinks. No holdout data.

Bo d82adc3717 fix(evolve): sync local main to origin/main before discovery (ag-6jt #discovery-origin-main) (#636)
## What

The evolve-cron-rpi loop's phase-1 discovery diffed candidate slices
against a **stale local `main`** (the rpi worktree's local main lags
`origin/main`), so work already merged to `origin/main` read as "open"
and got re-seeded as duplicate beads/PRs (ag-b8m≈ag-jov, ag-6kw≈ag-c2i —
4th recurrence). The `work-selection-ladder` reference *claimed* "the
cron syncs local main to origin/main before discovery" but no code
actually did it.

## Change

- **`skills/evolve/scripts/sync-main-to-origin.sh`** (new): `git fetch
origin`, then fast-forward local `main` to `origin/main` (never forced),
emitting `DIFF_BASE: origin/main <sha>` as the authoritative diff base.
A divergence is refused, never force-moved.
- **`scripts/overnight-evolve.sh`**: runs the sync before the loop's
discovery phase. Non-fatal on warning (loop proceeds with origin/main as
the base).
- **`skills/evolve/references/work-selection-ladder.md`**: the claimed
sync now points at the real, runnable script.
- **`tests/scripts/sync-main-to-origin.bats`** (new): hermetic bare-repo
tests pin the diff base = origin/main after fetch (not stale local
main), local main fast-forwards, divergence is refused, and a custom
remote is respected.

Pairs with the grep-existing-beads guard (`duplicate-work-guard.sh`,
#582) to cover both halves of the bead.

## Gates
- `shellcheck --severity=error` clean on both modified scripts.
- `bats tests/scripts/sync-main-to-origin.bats` — 5/5 pass.
- `git diff origin/main --stat` — scope-only (4 files,

Bo 0f16a574bc feat(eval): outcomes-rubric projection contract + schema (ag-hguuf #outcomes-rubric) (#624)
## What

Defines the machine-checkable contract for projecting the **locked eval
substrate** into an **Outcomes-style grading payload** (Anthropic
Managed Agents Outcomes analog) — holdout-safe by construction *and* by
schema.

The schema validates the **actual** output of `ao eval outcomes compile`
(`evalsubstrate.Rubric`), not the bead's pre-implementation prose sketch
(which imagined `suite_id`/`metric`/`decision_rule`/`split`). Per
source-of-truth precedence (executable > narrative), the shipped
projection deliberately emits *fewer* fields — a smaller cloud boundary
is a smaller leak surface. The "deliberately NOT projected" rationale is
documented in the contract.

## The load-bearing invariant

**Managed Agents are not ZDR** — a rubric crossing the cloud boundary
must never carry a ground-truth answer / holdout value / `target` /
`expected_output`. Enforced three ways:
1. **By construction** — `ProjectRubric` can't copy ground truth
(existing).
2. **By re-scan** — `Rubric.ContainsAny` guard (existing).
3. **By schema (this PR)** — `additionalProperties:false` at **every
nesting level** → a malformed compiler emission that smuggles a leak
field **fails schema validation**, not merely a code check.

## Files
- `schemas/outcomes-rubric.v1.schema.json` — the contract schema
-
`tests/fixtures/outcomes-rubric/{valid-dev,valid-holdout-criteria-only,invalid-contains-target}.json`

Bo a5ecfa7818 fix(ci): suppress false-positive SC2088 in lint-codex-native.sh (ag-nrn7 #shellcheck-sc2088) (#623)
## What

`scripts/lint-codex-native.sh` line 145 (`Check 3`) runs `grep -n
'~/\.claude/' "$skill_file"` — the `~/.claude/` is a **literal grep
pattern** (the check detects non-portable `~/.claude/` strings inside
codex skill files), not a path meant to expand. shellcheck SC2088 flags
it as a non-expanding tilde, which is a false positive here. This was 1
of the 8 `pre-push-gate.sh` failures triaged in ag-nrn7.

## Fix

Add a scoped `# shellcheck disable=SC2088` with a rationale comment
directly above the line. 3 lines, single file.

## Test

- `shellcheck scripts/lint-codex-native.sh` → **exit 0, 0 findings**
(was: 1 SC2088 warning → gate FAIL).
- `bash -n` syntax OK; the grep pattern is unchanged so Check 3 behavior
is identical.
- `bats tests/scripts/pre-push-shellcheck-unconditional.bats` → green
(no regression).

Closes the **last actionable** item in ag-nrn7's full-gate triage. The
remaining ag-nrn7 failures are tolerate (mkdocs-venv; CI venv passes),
elsewhere (distribution-install-update canary → soc-3csze), or

Bo 9e311c7e61 fix(ci): pre-push-gate skips intentionally-removed hookless-3.0 scripts (ag-nrn7 #hookless-gate-skips) (#622)
## What

The full (non-fast) `scripts/pre-push-gate.sh` exits BLOCKED on pristine
origin/main, partly because 3 hook-validation scripts it references were
**intentionally deleted in the hookless-first migration** (#511):
`audit-codex-hooks.sh`, `validate-hook-preflight.sh`,
`validate-hooks-doc-parity.sh`. Their gate branches still ran `fail
"missing executable"` when a hook diff triggered `needs_check hook` — 3
of the 8 failures in the release-readiness gate (ag-nrn7 triage).

## Fix

Convert each `else fail` → `skip` with a hookless-3.0 rationale.
**Forward-compatible** (if a script is ever restored, the `[[ -x ]]`
branch still runs it) and **honest** (intentionally-absent ≠ broken). 3
lines changed.

## Test

Added a regression test: the bats setup stubs every helper script
present (per f-2026-04-27-002), masking the absent-script path. The new
`ag-nrn7` case removes the 3 stubs, triggers a hook diff, and asserts
the gate **skips** (no `missing executable`) rather than fails.

- `bats tests/scripts/pre-push-gate.bats` → 56/56 ok (new case green;
red before the fix on the `audit-codex-hooks.sh` assertion).
- `shellcheck -S error scripts/pre-push-gate.sh` → clean.

Removes 3 of the 8 `pre-push-gate.sh` failures triaged in ag-nrn7;
advances soc-z3jft 3.0 release readiness.

Bo 0c42512fdd feat(ci): agent-output-validate.yml — reusable authoritative gate on agent output (ag-mptr #agent-output-validate) (#617)
## What

Reusable, authoritative CI gate over **agent-produced output** — the
hookless guardrail for out-of-session agents (Claude Managed Agent,
Agent SDK loop, or NTM/Codex swarm). A `workflow_call` job runs `ao
validate --gate` (the umbrella composing ratchet/standards/scenario)
against an agent's PR/artifact and propagates PASS/WARN/FAIL to the job
exit code. **CI is the gate, not a ported hook** (AgentOps 3.0 is
hookless).

Second child of epic **ag-7s9fo** (Make Managed/SDK agents
AgentOps-native), after ag-2wln `/agent-native` (#616). Inherits the
richer spec absorbed from superseded ag-toat4; the optional SDK hook
adapter was split out to ag-50m3.

## Files (3, +184/−0)

- `scripts/agent-output-validate.sh` — testable gate logic. Resolves
`ao` (`AO_BIN` override), runs `ao validate --gate "$@"`, propagates
exit (0 pass/warn, 1 fail, 2 error). **Fails loudly if `ao` is missing**
— a missing gate never reads as a clean pass.
- `.github/workflows/agent-output-validate.yml` — `workflow_call`
wrapper (inputs: `changes`, `strict`); builds `ao`, runs the script.
Runtime-agnostic (serves Managed-Agent + NTM-swarm PRs).
`workflow_call`-only **by design** — it's adopted by a caller, not
triggered standalone, so it does not run on this PR.
- `tests/scripts/agent-output-validate.bats` — 7 cases. The
**passing+failing fixture evidence** the bead requires, exercised
deterministically via an injectable fake `ao` (exit 0/1/2), plus
scope-flag forwarding, missing-binary, strict-mode, and workflow-wiring
assertions.

## Evidence

- `bats tests/scripts/agent-output-validate.bats` → **7/7 green**
- `shellcheck scripts/agent-output-validate.sh` → clean (severity=error)
- Real-`ao` smoke: against the live binary the script faithfully
propagates the gate verdict (an empty dir yields ao's exit-2 "no
artifacts" → ERROR, proving no silent pass)
- yaml parses valid

## Note for review

The workflow is `workflow_call`-only, so CI here can't execute it
(nothing `uses:` it yet). The **bats suite is the regression proof** for
the gate logic; the yaml is the thin Actions wrapper a caller adopts.
Bare invocation (no `changes`/`bead`) intentionally surfaces ao's exit-2
— callers scope the gate via the `changes` input.

Bo 03d2aaa8d7 feat(skills): add /agent-native — make out-of-session agents AgentOps-native, hooklessly (ag-2wln #agent-native) (#616)
## What

First child of **ag-7s9fo** (Make Managed/SDK agents AgentOps-native).
Adds the **/agent-native** dual-runtime skill documenting the **hookless
reframe** of the retired "port the ~50 hooks" idea.

An out-of-session Claude (Managed Agent / Agent SDK loop / self-hosted
sandbox) becomes AgentOps-native via three things — **never hooks**:
1. **Bundle AgentOps skills** into the Agent definition (same `skills/`
files, no fork).
2. **Expose the `ao` CLI as a callable tool** (MCP/shell-tool) so the
loop self-bootstraps + self-validates.
3. **Gate outputs through the SAME CI** as interactive work.

Extends `standards` + `converter`. The SDK hooks become an *optional
thin adapter*, never the enforcement boundary. Managed Agents are NOT
ZDR → no holdout/PII in the agent definition.

## How

Built through the hardened scaffold (ag-cw2y → ag-ekyq → ag-j4l1) — all
6 derived surfaces regenerated in one shot (registry, domain-map,
context-map, counts, codex twin+manifest+marker, dispositions
BC5-Runtime, SKILL-TIERS, using-agentops catalog, embedded sync).
Reverted the swept-in pre-existing drift (6 codex hashes + cli-surface)
per the changed-files-scoped triage.

Caught + fixed an `INVALID_AO_CMD` heal finding: `ao standards` isn't a
command — `standards` is a loaded checklist enforced via `ao validate` +
CI (corrected the references).

## Scope note

The skill documents the *intended* `ao agent bundle` / `ao mcp serve` /
`agent-output-validate.yml` surfaces — those are the sibling child beads
(ag-jspr, ag-higd, ag-mptr). This PR is the skill-doc slice only.

Bo 0023aa5acf feat(skills): skill-builder scaffolds codex override-catalog entry (ag-cw2y item 4) (#611)
## What
**ag-cw2y item 4** — the 4th and last new-skill gate that cost
`/burndown` #600 a CI round. A new skill previously tripped
`validate-codex-override-coverage` ("source skill missing from Codex
catalog"). skill-builder now adds the catalog entry automatically.

## How
- **`scripts/append-codex-override-entry.sh`** — idempotent, JSON-aware:
appends a `parity_only` entry
(`name`/`treatment`/`wave=catalog-parity`/`reason`) to
`skills-codex-overrides/catalog.json` if the skill is absent.
`parity_only` is correct for skill-builder's canonical-derived codex
form; author flips to `bespoke` + scaffolds the override dir only if a
Codex-only divergence is needed. Repo-root-injectable.
- **`init.sh`** — calls it in the new-skill plumbing block alongside the
dispositions row (#609/#610) and `--fix-counts` (#610). All three gates
now pre-empted at scaffold time.

## Tests (TDD, red→green)
`tests/scripts/append-codex-override-entry.bats` — appends parity_only /
stays valid JSON / idempotent / no-dup-on-existing. 4/4 green.
shellcheck clean.

## Codex artifact
Refreshed **only skill-builder's** hash (6 unrelated pre-existing `main`
drifts untouched). PR-scope codex validation passes.

## ag-cw2y status after this
Item 1 (#609 check + #610 scaffold) ✅ · Item 2 (#610) ✅ · **Item 4

Bo 5918fd559f feat(skills): skill-builder scaffolds dispositions row + narrative counts (ag-cw2y items 1-scaffold + 2) (#610)
## What

Completes **ag-cw2y item 1's scaffold-half + item 2**. A
newly-scaffolded skill is now one-shot-green against the two gates that
silently tripped `/burndown` #600:
1. missing `skill-dispositions.yaml` row → `heal.sh` Check 12
(`MISSING_DISPOSITION`, shipped #609)
2. stale `"N checked-in skills"` narrative counts →
`check-registry-drift`

## How
- **`scripts/append-skill-disposition.sh`** — idempotent helper that
appends a dispositions row (valid `BC4 Factory` placeholder + TODO
rationale, so `check-bounded-contexts-drift` passes; author refines
during content fill). Repo-root-injectable → fixture-testable.
- **`init.sh`** — after scaffolding, calls the helper *and* runs
`check-registry-drift.sh --fix-counts` to bump the narrative skill-count
tokens. Both calls are guarded + WARN-on-failure so they never break the
scaffold.

## Discovery (scope-narrowing)
Item 2's **check + `--fix-counts` already existed** and were wired into
both the fast pre-push gate (line 1330) and CI (line 803). The only gap
was that **skill-builder never invoked them** — so the fix is wiring,
not a new check.

## Tests (TDD, red→green)
`tests/scripts/append-skill-disposition.bats` — appends row / valid BC +
TODO / idempotent / no-dup-on-existing. 4/4 green. shellcheck clean.

## Codex artifact
Refreshed **only skill-builder's** source/generated hash (6 unrelated
pre-existing `main` drifts left untouched). PR-scope
`validate-codex-generated-artifacts --scope head` passes.

## ag-cw2y remaining
Item 1 (check #609 + scaffold here) ✅ · Item 2 (here) ✅ · **Item 3**
(codex desc budget / `ag-vzbt`) and **Item 4** (override-catalog
scaffold + `test-codex-override-coverage`) remain — then `ag-hdqu0.8`
and `/burndown` #600 are fully one-shot-green.

Bo fe731d12b9 feat(skills): skill-flow connectivity gate + closed consumes vocabulary (#597)
## Do all skills flow together?

**No — not until this PR.** Investigating the question surfaced a
structural gap: skill dependencies are declared across **three
overlapping frontmatter fields that drifted apart and were never
reconciled**, and nothing enforced connectivity or constrained the
`consumes` vocabulary.

| Field | Meaning | Read by context-map? |
|-------|---------|----------------------|
| `consumes` | upstream inputs | yes (data-flow table) |
| `context_rel` | DDD relationship | yes (mermaid) |
| `metadata.dependencies` | upstream skill slugs | **no** |

Findings (76 skills):
- **33 skills** where `consumes` (skills) ≠ `metadata.dependencies` —
the two skill-slug fields disagree.
- The generated `context-map.md` **ignored `metadata.dependencies`
entirely** (34 skills, the richest layer).
- Counting all three layers, **16 true orphans** (incl. core skills like
`push`, `session-bootstrap`) with zero skill-to-skill edges — silently.
- `consumes` was an **open free-text field**: no check that a token
resolves to anything.

`scripts/audit-skill-metadata.sh` already flagged the
`consumes`-vocabulary and connectivity checks as *"discovered
follow-ups, not enforced."* This is that follow-up.

## What this PR does

**1. Connectivity gate** — `scripts/validate-skill-flow.sh` (+
`validate-skill-flow` CI job):
- **Closed `consumes` vocabulary**: every token must resolve to a skill
slug, a whitelisted external input (`repo-context`, `external-api`,
`bd`, `github-pr`, `onboard`), or an artifact some skill produces.
Catches typos/undeclared deps.
- **`metadata.dependencies` resolution**: every entry must name a real
skill.
- **Orphan detection** across all three edge layers; un-allowlisted
orphans fail.
- Reports (non-fatal): cross-layer disagreement + dead-end artifacts, so
they can be reconciled later.

**2. Wire the genuine-gap edges** — added `context_rel` for 6
disconnected skills and regenerated `context-map.md`:
- `deps` → `vibe`, `red-team` → `vibe` (mirrors
`security`/`security-suite`)
- `provenance` ↔ `trace`
- `scenario` → `validation`
- `release` → `ship-loop`

**3. Close the vocabulary** — the closed `consumes` namespace is
enforced by the gate and documented in `docs/contracts/skill-flow.md`
(linked in `documentation-index.md`). 14 intentionally-standalone leaves
are allowlisted in `scripts/skill-flow-standalone.txt` with a rationale
per entry.

## Verification

```
$ bash scripts/validate-skill-flow.sh
validate-skill-flow: 76 skill(s), 121 skill-to-skill edge(s)
  orphans: 14 (allowlisted standalone: 14)
OK: skill flow is connected and the consumes vocabulary is closed.
```

- `validate-skill-flow.sh`: exit 0 ✅
- `validate-context-map-drift.sh`: exit 0 ✅
- `check-contracts-structural-floor.sh`: PASS (contract cataloged) ✅
- 11 acceptance tests in `tests/scripts/validate-skill-flow.bats` (bats
not installed locally; exercised via manual smoke + will run in CI
`bats-tests`).

Bounded-context: BC1-Corpus
Evidence: OK: skill flow is connected and the consumes vocabulary is
closed.
