Syklus 2 of Fase 4 Items 2+3. Flags when the sum of active skill
descriptions exceeds the listing budget (~2% of context, CC 2.1.32).
Design (operator-confirmed "fact-first, 200k anchor"):
- low severity (estimate) vs medium for the verified 1,536-char cap
- each description counted up to the 1,536 cap (what actually loads in
the listing) — avoids double-counting the tail CA-SKL-001 flags
- fires when sum > 2% x 200k = 4000 tok; evidence leads with the measured
sum + a calibration note that the budget scales 5x on 1M-context models
- aggregate emitted after the per-skill loop so the common case reads
001=cap, 002=aggregate (finding IDs are a sequential counter, not stable
semantic IDs — tests match on title, never NNN)
Also:
- tailored humanizer static entry for the aggregate title
- fix latent HOME leak in posture-grade-stability.test.mjs: it spawned
posture.mjs without hermeticEnv(), so a real ~/.claude leaked HOME-scoped
SKL/COL findings into the baseline grade (Token Efficiency A->B). Now
isolated like the 8 other CLI-spawning tests.
- docs sync: test count 868->875, scanner-internals, gap-matrix, plan status
Suite 875/875, no snapshot drift, self-audit clean.

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.

Fase 4 token-opt, Item 1 of gap-review NEXT STEP #2. The prompt-cache pattern corpus + TOK scanner were frozen at an "Opus 4.7" framing after CC shipped Opus 4.8 (default, 2.1.154) and Fable 5 (2.1.170). Model-era facts re-verified against the official changelog cache before editing.
The patterns are properties of prompt-caching, not of any model, so mechanic text is now model-neutral with a single "current default: Opus 4.8" anchor — preventing a re-freeze at the next model bump.
- rename knowledge/opus-4.7-patterns.md -> prompt-cache-patterns.md (git mv, history preserved); 6 reference sites updated
- TOK scanner: line-318 finding text (human-facing) made model-neutral; header + cache-prefix-scanner + CLI comments refreshed
- configuration-best-practices.md body + footnote 4.7 -> 4.8
- human-facing docs: commands/{tokens,help,manifest}.md, project CLAUDE.md, README, docs/scanner-internals.md
- gap-matrix row marked DONE; future Items 2/3 retargeted to new filename
Failing-test-first (Iron Law): +2 knowledge staleness guards (era-anchor + no-refreeze) +1 scanner assertion (no stale model anchor in finding text). Suite 853 -> 856 green; zero snapshot drift; self-audit A(97) PASS. CHANGELOG / v5 plan / ratified gap-plan keep historical opus-4.7-patterns refs (correct record of past state).

- Plugin README: add "What's New in v5.1.0" section with humanizer overview,
before/after example, plain-language vocabulary table, --raw flag docs.
Bump version badge 5.0.0 → 5.1.0. Add Version History row.
- Plugin CLAUDE.md: add humanizer.mjs + humanizer-data.mjs to Scanner Lib
table. Add "Plain-Language Output (v5.1.0)" section documenting output
modes, vocabularies, and Wave 5 lessons. Bump test count 635 → 792 across
52 test files.
- Marketplace root README: bump config-audit entry 5.0.0 → 5.1.0, update
one-line description to mention plain-language UX, add bullet for the
v5.1.0 humanizer, bump test count 635+ → 792+.
Test-normalizer hardening (consequence of growing CLAUDE.md):
walkClaudeMdCascade walks upward from the marketplace-medium fixture into
this plugin's own CLAUDE.md, so any docs edit ripples into
`scanners[*].activeConfig.claudeMdEstimatedTokens`. The v5.0.0 byte-stability
contract is about scanner internals being unchanged, not ancestor input
content being frozen. Normalizers in json-backcompat, raw-backcompat,
posture-humanizer, scan-orchestrator-humanizer, and snapshot-default-output
now strip claudeMdEstimatedTokens to <ANCESTOR_DERIVED>. The
default-output snapshot for scan-orchestrator was re-seeded via
UPDATE_SNAPSHOT=1 (intent: Wave 6 docs additions; humanizer prose
unchanged).
Verify:
- grep -E "5\.1\.0|v5\.1\.0" README.md CLAUDE.md ../../README.md | wc -l = 12
- node --test 'tests/**/*.test.mjs' = 792/792 pass
- self-audit configGrade A (97), pluginGrade A (100), readmeCheck.passed true
New read-only command that shows everything Claude Code actually loads for a
given repo — plugins, skills, MCP servers, hooks, CLAUDE.md cascade — with
source attribution (user/project/plugin) and rough token estimates. Helps
identify candidates for disabling without guessing.
Added:
- scanners/lib/active-config-reader.mjs — pure async helper: readActiveConfig,
detectGitRoot, walkClaudeMdCascade, readClaudeJsonProjectSlice (longest-prefix
matching for .claude.json projects), enumeratePlugins, enumerateSkills,
readActiveHooks, readActiveMcpServers, estimateTokens (markdown 4 c/tok,
json 3.5 c/tok, frontmatter cap 150 tokens, item flat 15)
- scanners/whats-active.mjs — thin CLI shim: --json, --output-file, --verbose,
--suggest-disables
- commands/whats-active.md — renders tables via Read tool; honors UX rules
- tests/lib/active-config-reader.test.mjs — 36 tests, all green (integration
fixture built in tmpdir with fake HOME, .claude.json prefix matching,
plugin discovery, hook/MCP merge from all scopes)
Verified:
- Performance budget: <2s wall-clock (smoke test: 102ms on real repo)
- Token estimates within ±20% of hand-computed values
- Read-only: no writeFile/mkdir/unlink in production code
- Self-audit: Plugin Health scanner reports 0 findings (Grade A)
- Full test suite: 522 tests, 512 pass (10 pre-existing conflict-detector
failures on main — unrelated to this change, reproducible on clean HEAD)

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.
