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.

The DIS scanner collapsed Tool(param) rules to the bare tool name, so
Agent(model:opus) deny + Agent(model:sonnet) allow (and the same for
WebFetch(domain:...)) were flagged as dead config — a false positive now
that CC 2.1.178 matches Tool(param:value) and 2.1.172 adds domain rules.
The conflict-detector shared the blind spot from the other side: a
wildcard deny like WebFetch(domain:*) did not cover a
WebFetch(domain:good.com) allow, so a genuine cross-scope conflict was
missed (false negative).
New shared scanners/lib/permission-rules.mjs:
- parseRule / paramMatches (glob)
- dominates(deny, allow) -> DIS dead-allow (deny fully covers allow)
- rulesIntersect(a, b) -> CNF cross-scope conflict (match sets intersect)
DIS now delegates to dominates; conflict-detector :156 delegates to
rulesIntersect. A bare deny still covers all params, so true positives
are preserved (Bash deny + Bash(npm:*) allow still flagged).
Re-seeded the marketplace-medium snapshots: the false-positive CA-DIS
finding (Read(src/**) allow + Read(./.env) deny) is correctly gone. This
changes snapshot CONTENT only — envelope schema is unchanged, so --json
and --raw stay byte-stable.
Full suite: 837/837 green (+25). self-audit PASS, A(100)/A(97).
The COL collision-scanner and the CLAUDE.md cascade resolve ~/.claude from
process.env.HOME (active-config-reader). Snapshot/byte CLIs were spawned with
the developer's real HOME, so they picked up installed plugins/skills and the
user CLAUDE.md — making the v5.0.0 + default-output snapshots machine- and
time-dependent. They were seeded 2026-05-01 with COL=1 (a real ~/.claude skill
collision) and drifted to COL=0 after the polyrepo split: 26 pre-existing
failures unrelated to Batch 1.
Fix (test-only, no production change):
- tests/helpers/hermetic-home.mjs — empty temp HOME, mirroring the pattern
collision.test.mjs already uses for the COL unit test.
- 7 harnesses spawn CLIs (or call lint()) under the hermetic HOME, so output
depends only on committed fixtures. Determinism verified across runs.
- Re-seeded all snapshots under hermetic HOME via SEED_SNAPSHOT/UPDATE_SNAPSHOT
(added a SEED guard to the frozen v5.0.0 byte tests). Snapshots now reflect
the fixture alone (COL=0, fixture-only activeConfig counts).
- Also re-seeded the unused env-aware snapshots (manifest/whats-active/
plugin-health), which had baked dozens of real ~/.claude skill/plugin names
into the committed repo — privacy cleanup.
Full suite: 812/812 green, stable across 3 runs.
Step 12 of v5.1.0 humanizer Wave 4. Adds tests/snapshot-default-output
.test.mjs and seeds three snapshots in tests/snapshots/default-output/
that capture humanized default-mode output for representative CLIs.
Coverage:
- scan-orchestrator: stdout JSON envelope (humanized findings); time
fields normalized.
- token-hotspots-cli: stdout JSON envelope (humanized payload.findings);
duration_ms normalized.
- posture: stderr humanized scorecard; (Xms) durations normalized.
Snapshot envelope is uniform on disk: { kind: 'json', payload: ... }
for JSON streams and { kind: 'text', payload: '...' } for stderr text.
This keeps the snapshot files self-describing and easy to read.
Re-seeding requires UPDATE_SNAPSHOT=1 — drift fails the test by design,
so any humanizer prose change is intentional and re-approved.
Tests: 764 to 767 (+3 SC-5 cases). Full suite passes.
