CC 2.1.226's /doctor Check 8 covers auto mode with usage-weighted judgement.
The binding positioning forbids carrying a feature whose whole value is
duplicating a /doctor check, so the "adopt this feature" nudge goes. The
deterministic side stays: SET still validates autoMode structure and still
flags it as dead config in shared project settings. GAP dimensions 25 -> 24.
The title lived in FOUR tables, not the two the removal was scoped against:
the dimension list, scoring TITLE_TO_ID, the humanizer's static translations,
and the scoring denominators (TIER_COUNTS t3 8->7, TOTAL_DIMENSIONS 25->24,
MAX_WEIGHTED 42->41) -- the one that moves a user-visible number. findGapId
falls back to 'unknown' silently, so a partial removal would have degraded
without failing. A blanket sync invariant now asserts all four against
GAP_CHECKS instead of comparing occurrences pairwise; each arm was verified
red against its own defect (denominator drift, orphaned humanizer entry,
resurrected dimension).
Frozen tests/snapshots/v5.0.0/ stays untouched. strip-retired-gap.mjs is the
removal twin of strip-added-scanner.mjs: it strips the retired dimension from
whichever side still carries it and re-derives GAP IDs, since retiring a
dimension from mid-list shifts every later ID by one. Derived utilization
figures are dropped from comparison rather than recomputed -- recomputing them
in a test helper would assert the new arithmetic against itself, and
scoring.test.mjs already pins them exactly. Re-seeding was rejected: it would
silently bake in any other drift across every scanner those four files cover.
risk_score, risk_band, verdict, overallGrade, maturity and segment are
byte-identical across the change (severity info carries zero risk weight; GAP
is excluded from the overall grade). Utilization shifts 43 -> 44 on the fixture.
D2 (CA-SKL-002) is NOT removed. Verified against the primary source first: the
CC changelog carries exactly one budget-fraction statement (L3786, 2.1.32) and
nothing supersedes it, so our 2% is current and 002 is not a duplicate with a
stale figure. /doctor's ~1% could not be reconciled from the changelog and it
discloses its own numbers as disk estimates, so it is recorded, not adopted.
Left explicitly unverified in a code note: L3786 says "character budget" while
we express tokens -- a 4x difference nobody can settle from the wording.
Suite 1531 -> 1535, all green.

New AGT scanner flags the aggregate always-loaded cost of the agent listing
(every active agent's name+description is injected each turn so the model
knows what it can delegate to). Mirrors the SKL skill-listing pattern but
encodes the key honesty caveat: the agent-listing mechanism is INFERRED
(agents are absent from Claude Code's documented context breakdown), so the
token figure is an UPPER-BOUND estimate and the aggregate budget is a
config-audit heuristic anchored on 200k — not a CC-documented allotment.
- scanners/agent-listing-scanner.mjs + scanners/lib/agent-listing-budget.mjs
- 8 TDD tests (tests/scanners/agent-listing-scanner.test.mjs)
- AGT folds into the Token Efficiency health area (scoring.mjs)
- byte-stability: AGT added to strip-added-scanner (frozen v5.0.0 baselines
left untouched, same as OST/OPT); SC-5 default-output snapshot refreshed
- suite 1168 -> 1176 green

First detector of the 'is the config OPTIMAL?' axis (vs the existing 'correct?' scanners). New orchestrated scanner family CA-OPT (count 14->15), the deterministic half of the hybrid optimization lens.
CA-OPT-001 (low, Missed opportunity): a multi-step procedure in CLAUDE.md (>=6 consecutive numbered steps) that belongs in a skill. Reads recommendation + provenance from the best-practices register (BP-MECH-003). Conservative by design; the negative corpus proves null false-positives. Prose-judgment cases (lifecycle->hook, 'never'->permission) are deferred to the Chunk 2b opus analyzer.
Wiring mirrors OST: orchestrator entry, humanizer (OPT->'Missed opportunity' + family), scoring (OPT->'CLAUDE.md', existing area -> no new posture row -> byte-stable), strip-helper (OST,OPT), SC-5 regenerated under hermetic HOME (additive OPT entry only). 10 new tests; suite 1045->1055, self-audit A/A, readmeCheck passed (all verified with a clean HOME).
Note: the pre-existing TOK test reads the real ~/.claude (non-hermetic) -> run the suite with a clean HOME for deterministic results. Tracked as a separate follow-up.

New orchestrated scanner output-style-scanner.mjs — first new family since
SKL. Three findings, each pinned to a CONFIRMED V-row of the steering-model
plan + re-verified against code.claude.com/docs/en/output-styles:
- CA-OST-001 (medium, V10): user/project custom style missing
keep-coding-instructions:true (default false) → silently strips built-in
software-engineering instructions when active. Scoped to user/project.
- CA-OST-002 (low, V11): plugin style with force-for-plugin:true overrides the
user's selected outputStyle. Verifiseringsplikt correction — the plan bullet
said "project/user style," but force-for-plugin is plugin-styles-only per the
docs, so the check keys on source==='plugin'.
- CA-OST-003 (medium): settings outputStyle matching no built-in
(Default/Explanatory/Learning/Proactive, case-insensitive) nor discovered
custom style → dead config.
Byte-stability — a scanner addition, not a field addition. Growing the
scanners array + scanners_ok cannot be hidden by a field strip, but re-seeding
frozen v5.0.0 (the SKL precedent) would now bake in B2's hotspot triple +
claudeMd drift. So, per the B2 lesson, frozen v5.0.0 snapshots are PRESERVED
and the OST entry is stripped at compare time via new
tests/helpers/strip-added-scanner.mjs (wired into json/raw-backcompat + the
Step 5/6 humanizer tests); only SC-5 default-output is regenerated (additive
OST entry, diff reviewed). OST is fixture-gated (no output styles on
marketplace-medium / hermetic HOME → silent).
Wiring: orchestrator; humanizer (OST→Configuration mistake) + humanizer-data
OST family (title-coupled); scoring (OST→Settings, keeps 10 areas). Suite
1012→1023 (+11). Badges: scanners 14, tests 1023, TRANSLATIONS families 15.
Lore swept: README, CLAUDE.md, scanner-internals, humanizer.md. self-audit A/A.

Fase 4 Items 2+3 (CC 2.1.114→181 gap-review). New orchestrated scanner
`skill-listing-scanner.mjs` (prefix SKL) flags every active skill whose
description exceeds the verified 1,536-char listing cap (CC 2.1.105, changelog
L1502). Past the cap, Claude Code silently truncates the description the model
reads to route skill invocation — dropping the trigger phrases at the tail.
HOME-scoped over all user + plugin skills via enumerateSkills (COL is the model).
- CA-SKL-001 (medium): description > 1,536 chars. Remediation folds in Item
2(b) — recommends disableBundledSkills + skillOverrides + trimming
(designvalg A: no standalone GAP-check, which would fire for nearly everyone).
- Designvalg B: v1 ships the verified cap ONLY. The aggregate 2%-of-context
listing budget is deferred — it needs a context-window assumption that would
turn a verified fact into a guess (would carry a CALIBRATION_NOTE if added).
- Choice C: recognize the skillOverrides settings key (CC 2.1.129) in
KNOWN_KEYS. Left OUT of TYPE_CHECKS — the value is a per-skill object
(off/user-invocable-only/name-only), not a string; a 'string' check (as the
plan sketched) would create a NEW false positive. Verify-first deviation.
Registration: scan-orchestrator (13th scanner), humanizer (SKL → 'Wasted
tokens' + static/_default translations), scoring SCANNER_AREA_MAP (→ Token
Efficiency; no 11th area), README badge 12→13, CLAUDE.md (finding-id +
test-count), docs/scanner-internals.md, gap-matrix + plan status notes.
Snapshots reseeded hermetically (SEED_SNAPSHOT/UPDATE_SNAPSHOT): SKL entry with
0 findings in empty HOME, scanners_ok 11→12, claudeMdEstimatedTokens bump from
the CLAUDE.md edits flowing through the cascade. Contamination grep clean.
Suite 868/868 (856 baseline + 11 SKL + 1 skillOverrides). RED→GREEN logged
per cycle.

Step 8 of v5.1.0 humanizer Wave 4. Adds tests/lint-default-output.mjs
runner and tests/scanners/lint-default-output.test.mjs wrapper that
exercise SC-3 against the 6 prose CLIs (scan-orchestrator, posture,
token-hotspots-cli, plugin-health-scanner, drift-cli, fix-cli) running
in default (humanized) mode against tests/fixtures/marketplace-medium.
Lint scope is stderr only — JSON envelope keys ("scanner", "severity")
are structural, not prose. Humanized prose fields embedded inside JSON
are already covered by tests/lib/humanizer-data.test.mjs tier1/tier3
checks. Code references inside backticks pass the lint
(stripBacktickSpans) so technical identifiers can appear when wrapped.
Default-mode prose fixes to land lint at zero violations:
- scan-orchestrator: top banner switches to "Config-Audit v2.2.0" and
per-scanner progress wraps "[XXX] Label" in backticks. --raw and
--json paths preserve the v5.0.0 verbatim banner via new
opts.humanizedProgress flag on runAllScanners.
- plugin-health-scanner: top banner switches to "Plugin Health v2.1.0"
in default mode; --raw/--json keep "Plugin Health Scanner v2.1.0".
- scoring.mjs generateHealthScorecard humanized branch: area names
(CLAUDE.md, Hooks, MCP, Settings, Rules, Imports, Conflicts, Token
Efficiency, Plugin Hygiene) are wrapped in backticks; dot-padding
compensates so column alignment matches v5.0.0 layout.
- posture / drift-cli / fix-cli: thread humanizedProgress flag through
their runAllScanners calls so default mode emits humanized progress
and --raw/--json preserve the v5.0.0 stderr snapshot.
Test infrastructure only — user-facing docs land in Wave 5/6 once
commands and agents consume the humanized payload.
Tests: 735 to 736 (+1 SC-3 wrapper). Full suite passes.

generateHealthScorecard signature: 2-arg → 3-arg (areaScores, opportunityCount,
options = {}). options.humanized=true renders friendlier title, grade-context
line per overall grade, and rephrased opportunity line. options.humanized=false
(or 2-arg call) preserves v5.0.0 verbatim output for backwards-compat.
topActions also gets an optional options.humanized that swaps recommendations
through humanizeFinding lookup.
posture.mjs main():
--json → write JSON to stdout, suppress stderr scorecard
--raw → write JSON to stdout (byte-identical to --json), write v5.0.0
verbatim scorecard to stderr
default → humanized scorecard to stderr, no stdout
posture.test.mjs scorecard-prose assertions re-anchored to --raw mode (the
explicit v5.0.0 path) — Wave 0 audit only covered finding-title strings;
scorecard prose surfaces here for the first time.

New COL scanner detects skill-name collisions across plugins and
between user-level skills (~/.claude/skills/) and plugin-bundled
skills. Skill identity is the directory basename — matches how
enumerateSkills resolves names.
Detection rules (per docs/v5-namespace-research.md, confidence: medium):
- Plugin-vs-plugin same skill name → severity low (CA-COL-001)
- User-vs-plugin same skill name → severity medium (CA-COL-001)
- Plugin-vs-built-in collisions: out of scope for v5.0.0 (insufficient
verification — recorded for v5.0.1 follow-up).
Findings carry details.namespaces array with {source, name, path} for
every conflicting source — supports per-collision reporting downstream.
output.mjs: finding() helper now passes through optional `details`
field (scanner-specific structured payload).
scoring.mjs: COL → "Plugin Hygiene" (new area, 10 total). Posture test
updated from 9 → 10 area scores.
.gitignore: docs/v5-namespace-research.md is local-only (Step 22a
research output, gitignored per plan).
Fixture collision-plugins/fake-home/ has user skill `review` colliding
with plugin-a + plugin-b's `review` (medium severity), plus plugin-c's
unique `summarize` (no collision).
[skip-docs] reason: v5 plan fences off README/CLAUDE.md badge updates

New DIS scanner detects tools that appear in BOTH permissions.deny
and permissions.allow within the same settings.json file. The deny
list wins, so allow entries are dead config but still load on every
turn and confuse intent.
Tool identity = bare name (everything before "("). `Bash(npm:*)` and
`Bash` are treated as the same tool, so a deny on `Bash` flags any
`Bash(...)` allow entry.
Severity: low. Wired into scan-orchestrator + scoring (area: Settings).
Fixture denied-tools-in-schema has Bash in both arrays; healthy-project
serves as the negative case.

New CPS scanner walks CLAUDE.md cascade and flags volatile content
between lines 31 and 150 — the cache-prefix window beyond TOK Pattern
A's top-30 territory. Volatile content anywhere in the cached prefix
forces a fresh cache write from that line down on every turn.
Volatile-pattern set extends TOK Pattern A with:
- shell-exec lines (! prefix) — common in CLAUDE.md to inject git/date
- ${VAR} substitutions — vary per-shell, defeat cache reuse
Severity: medium per finding. Skips lines 1-30 to avoid duplicating
Pattern A's range; CPS' value is in the 31-150 zone.
Wired into scan-orchestrator + scoring SCANNER_AREA_MAP. CPS shares
the "Token Efficiency" area with TOK; scoreByArea now deduplicates by
area name and combines counts across scanners contributing to the
same area, so the 9-area scorecard contract holds.
Fixtures volatile-mid-section/{volatile-line-60, volatile-line-200}
verify both positive (line 60) and out-of-window (line 200) cases.

Replace count-based pass-rate with severity-weighted penalty:
- penalty = sum(count[s] * WEIGHTS[s])
- maxBudget = max(10, findingCount * 4)
- passRate = max(0, 100 - penalty / maxBudget * 100)
A few lows no longer crater an area's grade; a single high or critical
consumes a large fraction of budget. Mirrors the operator intuition that
severity, not count, is the signal.
BREAKING (intentional): scoring semantics differ from v4 for non-clean
configs. Add scoringVersion: 'v5' to the returned struct so consumers
can detect the version. baseline-all-a remains all-A (no critical/high
on that fixture).
Tests: +6 cases for severity weighting; existing "many findings" test
updated to use highs (where v5 still drops the grade as expected).
Add /ultraresearch-local for structured research combining local codebase
analysis with external knowledge via parallel agent swarms. Produces research
briefs with triangulation, confidence ratings, and source quality assessment.
New command: /ultraresearch-local with modes --quick, --local, --external, --fg.
New agents: research-orchestrator (opus), docs-researcher, community-researcher,
security-researcher, contrarian-researcher, gemini-bridge (all sonnet).
New template: research-brief-template.md.
Integration: --research flag in /ultraplan-local accepts pre-built research
briefs (up to 3), enriches the interview and exploration phases. Planning
orchestrator cross-references brief findings during synthesis.
Design principle: Context Engineering — right information to right agent at
right time. Research briefs are structured artifacts in the pipeline:
ultraresearch → brief → ultraplan --research → plan → ultraexecute.
