Kjell Tore Guttormsen e3b044a476 feat(ost): v5.6 C — output-style scanner (CA-OST, count 13→14)
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.

# Config-Audit — Plain-language output (v5.1.0)
Imported from `CLAUDE.md` via pointer.
Default output of all 18 commands routes through `humanizeEnvelope` from `lib/humanizer.mjs`. Findings are decorated with three additive fields and may have title/description/recommendation replaced when a translation exists.
## Output modes
| Flag | Behavior |
|------|----------|
| (default, no flag) | Plain-language: humanizer applied, findings group by user-impact, titles lead with prose. Self-audit terminal render also humanized. |
| `--raw` | Byte-stable v5.0.0 verbatim — humanizer bypassed, technical IDs and severity-only labels. For tooling that scrapes stderr from v5.0.0. |
| `--json` | Unchanged from v5.0.0 — humanizer bypassed, byte-stable JSON envelope. Always preferred for programmatic consumption over `--raw`. |
| `--output-file <path>` | Writes raw v5.0.0-shape JSON (humanizer bypassed). Posture-specific. |
`--raw` is threaded through every CLI: `posture.mjs`, `scan-orchestrator.mjs`, `token-hotspots-cli.mjs`, `manifest.mjs`, `whats-active.mjs`, `fix-cli.mjs`, `drift-cli.mjs`, `self-audit.mjs`.
## Vocabularies
User-impact category (added to each finding as `userImpactCategory`, derived from scanner prefix):
| Label | Scanners |
|-------|----------|
| Configuration mistake | CML, SET, HKV, RUL, MCP, IMP, PLH, OST |
| Conflict | CNF, COL |
| Wasted tokens | TOK, CPS |
| Dead config | DIS |
| Missed opportunity | GAP |
Action language (added to each finding as `userActionLanguage`, derived from severity):
| Severity | Phrase |
|----------|--------|
| critical | Fix this now |
| high | Fix soon |
| medium | Fix when convenient |
| low | Optional cleanup |
| info | FYI |
Relevance context (added to each finding as `relevanceContext`, computed from finding's file path):
| Value | When |
|-------|------|
| `test-fixture-no-impact` | Path contains `/tests/fixtures/` or `/test/fixtures/` |
| `affects-this-machine-only` | Basename matches `*.local.*` (e.g., `settings.local.json`) |
| `affects-everyone` | Default — assumed shared/committed config |
## Wave 5 lessons
- Posture's stderr scorecard is rendered prose-side and is not part of the JSON envelope; `humanized.areas[].titleHumanized` referenced by command templates lives only in the prose render.
- Posture's `--output-file` writes raw v5.0.0-shape JSON because `posture.mjs` does not call `humanizeEnvelope`. If session-files should later be humanized, posture needs its own humanize pass — out of v5.1.0 scope.
- The default-output snapshot at `tests/snapshots/default-output/posture.json` is frozen — change requires `UPDATE_SNAPSHOT=1` plus intent confirmation.
