Round 7 (516dffa..45aa9e1, WARN: 12 MAJOR, 0 BLOCKER) and the fence defect
found while writing its review.md. Each fix began with a test that failed on
0f400d3 (v6.3.0); suite 2208 (2206/0/2), 14 tests more.
- Tests-only (operator 2026-10-11): the plan's Files: alone decides, and the
text says so (red-proof, trekexecute Sub-step B, step-implementer,
HANDOVER-CONTRACTS). red-proof no longer reads the step's diff, so a change
already in the tree when the step began no longer counts against it, and a
plan placed outside .claude/ reads the same. The round-6 test that had the
diff overrule the plan is rewritten to the new rule.
- The Files: reader keeps a plain file beside a backticked path
(", Dockerfile", "the CLI entry src/cli.mjs", "and Makefile"). Measured on
the 520 Files: fields in 182 plans: no field reads differently.
- Red proof reports a command its timeout killed as killed after the timeout,
not "could not start"; the release check tells a timeout from output past
its buffer and from another signal. One reading of a stop
(criteria-runner stoppedBy) for red proof, the criteria runner and the
release check.
- A trailing `# comment` is dropped in a backticked check too, and in a
command passed as written, so the words screened are the words run.
- The release check reads a relative --review in --repo.
- The 15-minute timeout is defined once (criteria-runner.mjs).
- The findings check reads each cited file once per validation.
- One isMain helper (lib/util/is-main.mjs) for every CLI: the 31 copies of
the realpath guard and the 20 modules still on the file:// guard, which
exited 0 having done nothing under a symlink or a path with a space.
- The Bash guard writes its no-one-to-ask refusal once, on a direct condition.
- The findings check ends a ```json block only at a fence on its own line, so
three backticks inside a JSON string no longer end it (also in 6.2.0).
- Brief-conformance notes: a test for test-lock green on exit 127 (it
passed at once; it fails when 127 is read as could-not-run); the prose now
names the git revision `@~1` as the one leading-@ exception.
Not changed: the example plan's steps 1-2 keep their tests-only warning
(operator decision 2026-10-09; the r5 test records it). Brief note 4 (a
Regression: whose runner is not installed goes to the fix rounds) is a
routing question for the operator.

Independent read-only review of c56f852..2d29966 (2026-10-08), each defect
reproduced by the reviewer; each new test fails on that code.
- test-lock green ran ANY allowlisted command: `green --cmd "git status"`
marked a red step green and the stop guard let it stop. The lock now
stores the step's test command (`lock --cmd`); `green` runs only that
one (a different --cmd, or a lock without one, exits 2). trekexecute D1
calls `green` with no command, which also removes the quoting hazard.
- plan-gate --accept-open worked at round 1 and passed the gate; it now
refuses while rounds are left.
- findings-schema --repo-root swallowed a following flag, or took a root
that does not exist, and silently skipped the line check: exit 2.
- brief-review-stamp hashed only the body, so a changed `framing` or
`research_topics` stayed "current"; it now covers the reviewed
frontmatter too (only the post-review stamps are left out).
- red-proof red_kind read an assertion message naming SyntaxError as a
load error; the signatures are now specific.

voyage-lekerepo trial (2026-10-06) point 6, operator decision 2026-10-08
(«samme skala, og du spør»): the critics rated a non-discriminating test
minor in round 3, there was no way to fix it after the last round, it was
built, and /trekreview called the same weakness MAJOR (MISSING_TEST).
- plan-critic, scope-guardian: rate on the review catalogue's tiers; a test
that cannot fail on a wrong implementation is major, never minor.
- plan-gate: an open MAJOR stops (PLAN_GATE_OPEN_MAJOR: revise and run the
next round; PLAN_GATE_OPEN_MAJOR_FINAL after the last round: ask the
operator). --accept-open records "build as is" after their yes, bound to
the round and the plan hash; never for a blocker.
- trekplan Phase 9: REVISE after the last round asks fix now (one extra
round) or build as is, instead of carrying the majors silently.

Wave 1, order 3 (P3 plan mode as the start, P2 design as its own part, P9
plan side). Contracts K3-K6 for the later merges.
- plan_version 1.8 (1.7 plans stay valid): Test first on every step, one
End-to-end ("run the thing") step, optional Interface in / Interface out /
Review focus fields, a ceremony class in the header (absent =
architectural), and for architectural plans a ## Design part: module map
without cycles, architecture rules that name their enforcer and the step
that proves them, a requirements check asked as keep / change.
- K3 lib/validators/plan-gate.mjs: the critic verdict is recorded INSIDE the
plan (Claude Code's plan approval hands a hook only the plan file's text),
bound to the hash taken before the reviewers read it; 0 go / 1 stop / 2
could not run; at most 3 critic rounds, then stop and ask.
- K5 lib/verification/arch-rules.mjs: runs the target repo's own
dependency-cruiser or import-linter (installs nothing; 2 = not measured,
never green); --prove --rule shows pass -> fail on a planted violation of
that rule -> pass. Verified against dependency-cruiser 18.5.0 and
import-linter 2.15; madge 8.0.0 left out (missed a planted .mjs cycle).
- K6 lib/verification/plan-scope-sweep.mjs: changed files no step names.
- /trekplan Phases 8-10: design part, bounded critic loop, the gate before
"execute", a plan-mode path through ExitPlanMode (not yet run end to end
inside plan mode). plan-critic 10 -> 12 dimensions; scope-guardian checks
the ceremony.
- Fixed on the way: plan-validator and plan-review-dedup used the
file://argv[1] main guard (no-op under a symlink or a space); CRLF plans
failed every manifest; the dedup dropped finding severity.
