New CPS scanner walks CLAUDE.md cascade and flags volatile content
between lines 31 and 150 — the cache-prefix window beyond TOK Pattern
A's top-30 territory. Volatile content anywhere in the cached prefix
forces a fresh cache write from that line down on every turn.
Volatile-pattern set extends TOK Pattern A with:
- shell-exec lines (! prefix) — common in CLAUDE.md to inject git/date
- ${VAR} substitutions — vary per-shell, defeat cache reuse
Severity: medium per finding. Skips lines 1-30 to avoid duplicating
Pattern A's range; CPS' value is in the 31-150 zone.
Wired into scan-orchestrator + scoring SCANNER_AREA_MAP. CPS shares
the "Token Efficiency" area with TOK; scoreByArea now deduplicates by
area name and combines counts across scanners contributing to the
same area, so the 9-area scorecard contract holds.
Fixtures volatile-mid-section/{volatile-line-60, volatile-line-200}
verify both positive (line 60) and out-of-window (line 200) cases.
[skip-docs] reason: v5 plan fences off README/CLAUDE.md badge updates
to Session 5; Forgejo pre-commit-docs-gate hook requires this tag.
Tests: 604 → 611 (+7).

Two MCP enumeration paths in readActiveMcpServers now pass kind='mcp'
to estimateTokens with optional toolCount derived from def.tools array
(populated when callers cache MCP discovery — Step 14 wires that up).
Hook callers keep kind='item' (no schema overhead).
Visible effect: every active MCP server jumps from estimatedTokens=15
to >= 500 (or higher when toolCount is known). The whats-active output
and TOK hotspots now reflect actual MCP cost.
Tests: assert mcpServers[].estimatedTokens >= 500 in fixture.
Replace count-based pass-rate with severity-weighted penalty:
- penalty = sum(count[s] * WEIGHTS[s])
- maxBudget = max(10, findingCount * 4)
- passRate = max(0, 100 - penalty / maxBudget * 100)
A few lows no longer crater an area's grade; a single high or critical
consumes a large fraction of budget. Mirrors the operator intuition that
severity, not count, is the signal.
BREAKING (intentional): scoring semantics differ from v4 for non-clean
configs. Add scoringVersion: 'v5' to the returned struct so consumers
can detect the version. baseline-all-a remains all-A (no critical/high
on that fixture).
Tests: +6 cases for severity weighting; existing "many findings" test
updated to use highs (where v5 still drops the grade as expected).
Promote WEIGHTS const to named export with Object.freeze for downstream
use in scoring.mjs (severity-weighted scoreByArea, F3).
Tests: +2 cases asserting WEIGHTS shape.
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)
