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.

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).

Consume the v5.6 Foundation enumeration in buildManifest:
- Component-level sources: drop the coarse `kind:'plugin'` roll-up (it
double-counted skills/rules/agents already enumerated once). Kinds are now
claude-md/skill/rule/agent/output-style/mcp-server/hook.
- Every source carries loadPattern/survivesCompaction/derivationConfidence.
Rules/agents/output-styles propagate the foundation-derived values; CLAUDE.md
maps scope→kind (all cascade files always-loaded); skills are tagged on-demand
(skill-body) so the body cost does not inflate the always-loaded subtotal.
- New `summary` (always/onDemand/external/unknown {tokens,count}); the
always-loaded subtotal — "tokens that enter context every turn" — is the headline.
manifest is an environment-aware CLI → SC-6/SC-7 verify it by mode-equivalence,
not byte-equal, and it is not in SC-5. Adding fields in place keeps all snapshots
green with no regen (verified). `total` changes (de-duped) — intended correctness fix.
TOK's load-pattern column (byte-equal SC-6) is deferred to the next chunk (B2).
Tests 996→1008 (deterministic buildManifest unit test + CLI presence checks).
Self-audit A/A, scanner count unchanged at 13.

Foundation chunk of v5.6 "steering-model II" (internal plumbing for B/C;
no command-output change, so --json/--raw/SC-5/6/7 stay byte-stable, count
stays 13).
active-config-reader.mjs:
- deriveLoadPattern(kind,{scoped}) — pure helper mapping each source kind to
loadPattern {always,on-demand,external} + survivesCompaction {yes,no,n/a}
+ derivationConfidence {confirmed,inferred}, traced to the published
loading model (V-rows in docs/v5.5-steering-model-plan.md).
- enumerateRules / enumerateAgents / enumerateOutputStyles — the three
source kinds previously unenumerated (mirror enumerateSkills). Output-style
discovery is direct (not a new file-discovery type) to keep the discovery
surface stable.
- readActiveConfig now exposes rules/agents/outputStyles arrays + totals
counts/subtotals (folded into grandTotal).
yaml-parser.mjs:
- parseSimpleYaml now reads YAML block sequences (paths:\n - a), not just
inline paths:. An empty-valued key with no `- ` items stays null
(backcompat). Resolves a pre-existing RUL false-positive (a block-seq-scoped
rule was misread as unscoped) — fix flows through unchanged RUL code.
Tests +35 (961 -> 996): block-seq parser cases, RUL block-seq regression
(no-misflag + durability-fires), deriveLoadPattern table, three enumerators
(positive+negative). Amended two existing ACR asserts (top-level key shape +
grandTotal sum). self-audit A/A, readmeCheck passed, mismatches []. tests
badge 961+->996+; README testing prose de-staled (635/36 -> 996/56);
CLAUDE.md Foundation note.
B (manifest/tokens render + snapshot regen) and C (CA-OST, count->14)
deferred to their own sessions/GO.

A (RUL+CML durability) and E (PLH plugin-agent dead-config) implemented
and committed. Foundation moved to v5.6 (A/E are additive and don't
consume it). STATE + plan updated; v5.5.0 release-cut is a separate GO.

GO granted to implement v5.5.0 in a fresh session. STATE now opens
directly into the task with ordered, concrete first steps (Foundation
enumeration → A durability → E plugin-agent dead-config), the brief
pointer, and the impl-critical gotchas.

Stop gitignoring STATE.md (remove from .gitignore) and commit it. Per the
updated ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md continuity rule, STATE.md is now tracked in every
repo and pushed to private Forgejo (never GitHub/public) — it survives fresh
clones, git clean, and branch switches instead of living only on disk.
