Phase 9's dedup hand-off was broken on two layers, both surfaced by the S22
dogfood: (a) plan-critic + scope-guardian (Read/Glob/Grep, no Write) were told
to write /tmp/*-out.json the dedup helper reads — they cannot; (b) even with
Write, their Output format emits markdown, not the helper's
{agent,findings:[{file,line,rule_key,text}]} schema. readJsonOrNull then
swallowed the absent files -> a silent empty merge that discarded every finding.
Fix (operator-chosen A'): keep the reviewers read-only; make the hand-off run.
- plan-review-dedup.mjs gains a --stdin mode reading {plan_critic,scope_guardian};
malformed stdin exits non-zero so a broken hand-off surfaces loudly instead of
collapsing into a silent empty merge. File mode + its tests are untouched.
- plan-critic.md + scope-guardian.md now emit a trailing machine-readable `json`
findings block (the inline hand-off; no Write tool needed).
- trekplan.md + planning-orchestrator.md Phase 9 rewritten in lockstep: extract
both blocks, pipe via heredoc into --stdin. No temp files, portable, no
pathguard dependency.
TDD: malformed-stdin test failed first (CLI ignored stdin -> exit 0 = the bug),
green after impl. New S23 doc-pin asserts both docs use --stdin (not the dead
/tmp paths) and both agents declare the json block. Suite 724 (722/2/0); live
HEAD baseline was 720, not the stale 705 STATE carried forward.

Flip model: sonnet → model: opus across 20 agent files, 4 prose references
in commands (trekplan, trekresearch), trekendsession command frontmatter,
and CLAUDE.md tables. Aligns CLAUDE.md premium-profile row to actual
premium.yaml content (all-opus, which has been the case since v4.1.0 but
the doc was drift). Companion to VOYAGE_PROFILE=premium env-var (set in
~/.zshenv same day) — env-var governs orchestrator phase model; this
commit governs sub-agent models which are frontmatter-pinned and not
reachable by the profile resolver.
npm test: 516 pass, 0 fail, 2 skipped (unchanged from baseline).
Operator rationale: complete Opus coverage across all Voyage activity,
including the 20 sub-agents that the profile system does not control
(architecture-mapper, task-finder, plan-critic, scope-guardian,
brief-reviewer, code-correctness-reviewer, brief-conformance-reviewer,
review-coordinator, session-decomposer, plus the 6 researcher agents,
plus the 5 codebase-analysis agents).
Cost implication: sub-agent runs ~5x more expensive vs sonnet. Accepted.
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.
