Add v2.4.0 CHANGELOG entry documenting the background-mode removal
rationale (harness does not expose Agent tool to sub-agents per
github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/19077). Update plugin CLAUDE.md
architecture sections to drop background-transition phases and redefine
the three orchestrator agents as inline reference. Update plugin README
mode tables for /ultraresearch-local, /ultra-cc-architect-local,
/ultraplan-local — --fg is now a no-op alias. Update marketplace root
README with a v2.4.0 paragraph above the v2.3 changelog summary.
Closes the docs portion of the v2.4.0 rollout. Version-sync follows in
the next commit.

skill-drafter now reads {catalog_root}/<slug>.md before writing its
draft and prepends a warning block to its confirmation output when
an existing skill would be overwritten during manual `mv` promotion.
The draft is still written to .drafts/<slug>.md — the check is a
hint, not a block.
Closes v2.3.0 dogfood finding (post_dogfood_findings[0]): the
drafter produced .drafts/hooks-pattern.md when an approved
hooks-pattern.md seed already existed, giving no signal that `mv`
during promotion would silently overwrite the seed. v2.3.1
introduced the qualified-slug mechanism to resolve such collisions;
v2.3.2 surfaces them at the right moment — before promotion.
Changes:
- agents/skill-drafter.md — new Step 2 between slug computation and
source reading. Reads {catalog_root}/<slug>.md, inspects
review_status, derives a kebab-case qualifier from the concept
handle (or source basename fallback). Subsequent steps renumbered
3→7. Output format gains Collision: field and optional warning
block. New Hard Rule.
- tests/fixtures/skill-drafter/slug-collision-expected.md — reference
fixture documenting expected confirmation shape across four
scenarios (no collision, approved collision, soft pending
collision, collision with no good qualifier). Skill-drafter is
prompt-driven; fixture anchors shape for human verification and
downstream parsers.
- CHANGELOG [2.3.2], plugin.json 2.3.1→2.3.2, README badge, plugin
CLAUDE.md slug-convention Collision-hint bullet, marketplace root
README summary, marketplace root CLAUDE.md plugin table.
Non-breaking. No frontmatter/drafts-layout/tool-scope/regex changes.
Existing pipelines see one extra field and an optional warning —
both purely additive.

Resolves v2.3.0 dogfood collision: skill-factory produced a
specialized hooks-pattern.md draft that would have overwritten the
generic seed. Qualified slugs let one feature host multiple named
patterns at different abstraction levels.
Slug convention: <cc_feature>[-<qualifier>]-<layer>.md. Unqualified =
canonical baseline. Qualified = sub-pattern (e.g., hooks-observability-
pattern.md) that does not displace the baseline.
Changes:
- SKILL.md: slug convention section, coverage-table qualified column,
matcher logic for N patterns per feature, modification rules cover
qualified-vs-canonical choice and collision handling.
- feature-matcher: catalog map is cc_feature -> {layer -> [skills]};
selection rules (baseline by default, qualified when justified,
multi-skill when non-overlapping); supporting_skill accepts list.
- gap-identifier: adds pattern_count[cc_feature] to coverage audit.
- architecture-critic: supporting-skill verification — every cited
skill name must exist in the catalog (blocker severity).
- First qualified skill: hooks-observability-pattern.md (promoted from
.drafts/, source ai-psychosis/README.md, ngram-overlap 0.01).
- Version bump 2.3.0 -> 2.3.1 across plugin.json, badges, table, root
CLAUDE.md, CHANGELOG.
Non-breaking: existing unqualified slugs keep working, no cc_feature
taxonomy changes, hallucination gate unchanged.
Replace hardcoded Q1-Q8 in /ultrabrief-local with a section-driven
completeness loop (Phase 3) and a draft/review/revise loop with
brief-reviewer as stop-gate (Phase 4). Quality drives the interview,
not a question counter.
brief-reviewer now emits a machine-readable JSON block with per-dimension
scores (1-5) and detail arrays alongside the existing prose report;
planning-orchestrator continues to consume the prose verdict unchanged.
Phase 4 gate: all dimensions >= 4 AND research_plan = 5. On fail, a
targeted follow-up is generated from the weakest dimension's detail
field and the draft is re-reviewed. Max 3 review iterations bound cost;
exhaustion writes brief.md with brief_quality: partial and an explicit
Brief Quality section. Force-stop surfaces per-dimension findings before
the user chooses continue or partial.
Not breaking. /ultrabrief-local [--quick] <task> interface unchanged.
--quick now means compact start with escalation, not a max-N cap.

Opus 4.7 reads agent instructions more literally than 4.6. The v1.7
planning-orchestrator described the Step+Manifest schema via prose +
procedural rules, which 4.6 inferred correctly but 4.7 sometimes
rendered as narrative "Fase N" prose — producing plans ultraexecute
Phase 2 rejected. First observed 2026-04-17 during llm-security v6.2.0
planning.
v1.8.0 closes the gap:
- planning-orchestrator Phase 5 embeds a literal copyable Step+Manifest
example (JWT middleware) replacing "read the template" prose
- Explicit forbidden-format clause: ## Fase N, ### Phase N, ### Stage N,
and any non-"### Step N:" heading are denied
- Phase 5.5 schema self-check: grep-verify canonical Step count matches
Manifest count and narrative heading count is zero, before handing to
plan-critic
- ultraexecute-local --validate mode: schema-only check that parses
steps + manifests, reports READY/FAIL with actionable error hints,
no security scan, no execution. Fast sanity check between
/ultraplan-local and full execution.
Static verification: 17/17 PASS.

Add Security hardening section to ultraplan-local README covering all 4
defense layers. Update architecture tree to include hooks directory.
Update root marketplace README with security summary and hook count.
Update CLAUDE.md architecture section with Phase 2.4 and --allowedTools.

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.
