Previously, `LLM_SECURITY_TRIFECTA_MODE=block` only exited 2 when the
detected trifecta was MCP-concentrated (all three legs via the same MCP
server) or involved sensitive-path + exfil. Distributed trifectas —
three legs originating from different tools, with a non-sensitive data
path and a non-sensitive exfiltration sink — were detected and warned
but not blocked. This mismatched the documented semantics of block mode
and gave operators a false sense of enforcement.
Change: remove the `(mcpInfo.concentrated || sensitiveExfil)` AND-gate
in the `TRIFECTA_MODE === 'block'` branch so any detected trifecta
blocks in block mode. Audit event `severity` still differentiates
critical (concentrated / sensitive-exfil) from high (distributed); the
blocked stderr message now explicitly names "Distributed trifecta:
three legs from different sources" when the confidence sub-signals
are absent.
Addresses critical review 2026-04-20 §2 B2 (HIGH) and §9 row 1
("enforces the Rule of Two").
Tests: 1 added (distributed trifecta in block mode now exits 2).
All 1495 tests pass.
The previous ENV regex `/[\\/]\.env\.[a-z]+$/` only matched a single
lowercase segment after `.env`. Multi-segment and mixed-case variants
such as `.env.production.local.backup`, `.env.stage-1.local`, and
`.env.CI.secret` slipped past the hook. Replaced with
`/[\\/]\.env(\.[A-Za-z0-9._-]+)*$/` which matches `.env` plus any
number of dot-separated alphanumeric/dot/hyphen/underscore segments.
`.envrc` (direnv config, no dot separator) is still allowed.
Addresses critical review 2026-04-20 §2 B1 (HIGH).
Tests: 7 added (6 new multi-segment BLOCK cases + 1 .envrc ALLOW).
All 1494 tests pass.
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.
