New COL scanner detects skill-name collisions across plugins and
between user-level skills (~/.claude/skills/) and plugin-bundled
skills. Skill identity is the directory basename — matches how
enumerateSkills resolves names.
Detection rules (per docs/v5-namespace-research.md, confidence: medium):
- Plugin-vs-plugin same skill name → severity low (CA-COL-001)
- User-vs-plugin same skill name → severity medium (CA-COL-001)
- Plugin-vs-built-in collisions: out of scope for v5.0.0 (insufficient
verification — recorded for v5.0.1 follow-up).
Findings carry details.namespaces array with {source, name, path} for
every conflicting source — supports per-collision reporting downstream.
output.mjs: finding() helper now passes through optional `details`
field (scanner-specific structured payload).
scoring.mjs: COL → "Plugin Hygiene" (new area, 10 total). Posture test
updated from 9 → 10 area scores.
.gitignore: docs/v5-namespace-research.md is local-only (Step 22a
research output, gitignored per plan).
Fixture collision-plugins/fake-home/ has user skill `review` colliding
with plugin-a + plugin-b's `review` (medium severity), plus plugin-c's
unique `summarize` (no collision).

New DIS scanner detects tools that appear in BOTH permissions.deny
and permissions.allow within the same settings.json file. The deny
list wins, so allow entries are dead config but still load on every
turn and confuse intent.
Tool identity = bare name (everything before "("). `Bash(npm:*)` and
`Bash` are treated as the same tool, so a deny on `Bash` flags any
`Bash(...)` allow entry.
Severity: low. Wired into scan-orchestrator + scoring (area: Settings).
Fixture denied-tools-in-schema has Bash in both arrays; healthy-project
serves as the negative case.

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.

Adds detectMcpToolBudget detection block in TOK scanner. Tiered severity
per project-local .mcp.json server based on toolCount:
- < 20: no finding
- 20-49: low
- 50-99: medium
- 100+: high
- null (manifest unparseable): low + "tool count unknown" message
Scoped to source==='.mcp.json' to keep findings actionable for the
audited path; plugin/user-level MCP servers are surfaced by the
manifest scanner (Step 19 / N2).
5 fixtures (mcp-budget/{14,25,60,120,unknown}-tools) use inline `tools`
arrays in .mcp.json — no node_modules needed for these tests.
Tests assert title+severity (not exact ID) since TOK IDs are sequential
per scan, not semantic per pattern.

feat commits without doc changes.

Filesystem counts are the source of truth; README badges parsed via
line-anchored substring (badge/<kind>-<N>-...). Emits readmeCheck object
with counts/badges/mismatches.
CLI: node scanners/self-audit.mjs --check-readme [--json]
API: runSelfAudit({ checkReadme: true }) → result.readmeCheck
Helper: checkReadmeBadges(pluginDir) for per-fixture testing
New fixture: readme-desynced/ (commands/foo + bar, README claims 1).
Note: alpha phase does NOT require result.readmeCheck.passed === true.
Self-test of real plugin currently fails (scanners 10 vs 9, tests 31 vs 543);
will be reconciled in Session 5 Step 28 (README sync).
582 → 586 tests, all green.
The mcp-tool-heavy fixture relies on node_modules/mcp-heavy/package.json
being committed so the v5 M1 tool-count detection test runs deterministically.
Add an unignore rule for tests/fixtures/**/node_modules/.
- New Pattern F in TOK: low-severity finding when SKILL.md description > 500 chars
- Scoped to discovery.files (project-local) — activeConfig.skills walk would
pull in user/plugin skills out of project scope
- New fixtures: skill-bloated (594-char desc) + skill-tight (46-char baseline)
574 → 576 tests, all green.
- New Pattern E in TOK: emits medium finding when activeConfig.claudeMd.estimatedTokens > 10_000
- Uses cascade tokens, file count, and calibration note as evidence
- New fixtures: large-cascade (37k bytes / 14475 cascade tokens) + small-cascade (5k baseline)
572 → 574 tests, all green.
Removes the v4 'void readActiveConfig' placeholder and wires the
active-config snapshot into the TOK scanner.
Per-turn behavior changes:
- Each enabled MCP server becomes its own hotspot entry (richer than
the parent .mcp.json file alone)
- total_estimated_tokens now includes MCP server cost
- result.activeConfig exposes a small summary
(claudeMdEstimatedTokens, mcpServerCount, pluginCount, skillCount)
Failures of readActiveConfig are non-fatal — the scanner falls back
to the discovery-only path used in v4.
Tests: +3 cases on the new tok-active-config fixture
(.mcp.json with 2 servers, CLAUDE.md, plugin skeleton).
