Annotate every ranked TOK hotspot with the load-pattern triple
(loadPattern/survivesCompaction/derivationConfidence):
- hotspotLoadPattern() maps each discovery `type` → a deriveLoadPattern kind.
Rules reuse activeConfig.rules for precise `scoped` handling; claude-md maps
by scope. Two new deriveLoadPattern kinds back the rest: `command`
(on-demand — body loads on /invoke) and `harness-config` (external —
settings/keybindings/.mcp.json/hooks.json/plugin.json configure the CLI, not
the model context, so they cost no per-turn context tokens). Honest split:
the .mcp.json FILE is external; the MCP server's tool schemas are a separate
`always` hotspot.
Byte-stability — the opposite of B1's manifest. token-hotspots IS a byte-equal
SC-6/SC-7 CLI, and its hotspots ride inside scan-orchestrator + posture, so the
change touched SIX frozen-v5.0.0 comparisons across five test files. Resolved by
preserving the frozen baselines: a shared tests/helpers/strip-hotspot-load-pattern.mjs
strips the additive triple before each byte-equal compare (proves the original
schema is byte-identical). SC-5 default-output snapshots (scan-orchestrator +
token-hotspots) regenerated — diff reviewed as additive-only.
Tests 1008→1012. Self-audit A/A, scanner count unchanged at 13 (C bumps to 14).
Completes v5.6 B (B1 manifest + B2 token-hotspots).

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.
