`.mcp.json` has no per-server `trust` key — verified 2026-06-18 against
code.claude.com/docs/en/mcp + /settings. MCP server approval is
dialog/settings-based (enableAllProjectMcpServers / enabledMcpjsonServers /
disabledMcpjsonServers), never a JSON field. The scanner's "Missing trust
level" (CA-MCP-001, medium) and "Invalid trust level" (high) were false
positives flagging a field that does not exist.
- scanner: delete both trust checks + VALID_TRUST_LEVELS; drop `trust` from
VALID_SERVER_FIELDS so a stray `trust` is now flagged as an unknown field
- humanizer: remove the two trust-level entries
- knowledge (5 files): point to the real approval mechanism, not a trust field
- fixtures: scrub `trust` (incl. the invalid "local" in optimal-setup)
- tests: flip assertions (no trust-level finding; stray trust -> unknown
field) + add knowledge-staleness re-freeze guards
- snapshots: reseed (marketplace-medium .mcp.json -8 tokens, hermetic)
- gap-matrix: mark the trust verify-first item DONE
Suite: 853/853 green.

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.
