An unreadable ledger returned 0 from countTurns in BOTH the primitive and
the hook, so a run whose ledger existed but could not be read (EISDIR,
EACCES, EIO) was handed the full budget again on every call - unbounded.
research-loop-cap.mjs argues against exactly that three lines above the
code that did it, and its missing-DIRECTORY case already failed closed.
The unreadable-FILE case now agrees with it.
Only ENOENT still counts as zero turns spent: that is the legitimate
first-turn state, and the reason this cannot just throw on any read
failure.
The hook no longer carries its own countTurns. It imports the primitive's
exported readLedger(), the same way it already resolves the data root
through resolveDataRoot() - a reader and a writer with private copies of
the counting rule is how a hook ends up enforcing a different bound than
the gate it backs. In scope + cannot count now exits 2 with a message
that says counting failed, not that the budget is spent.
Fail-closed stays scoped to the loop: a test pins that an unreadable
ledger in an OUT-of-scope session still exits 0, because a PreToolUse
hook that over-blocks bricks every session on the box.
Also dropped the existsSync pre-check before the read - readFileSync's
own ENOENT carries the same information without a second syscall that
can disagree with the read that follows it.

A fractional TREKRESEARCH_MAX_CONV_TURNS below 1 cleared the `n <= 0`
guard on its raw value and only then floored, so '0.5' and '0.9' became
0 and the budget became 0 x MAX_TOTAL_DIMENSIONS = 0: every turn denied,
the loop silently dead rather than bounded.
README.md:229 and docs/architecture.md:15 both promise that invalid
values fall back to 3. docs/command-modes.md:42 enumerated "empty,
non-numeric, zero, or negative" and happened to sidestep the case; the
enumeration is now exhaustive about it.
Measured before: '0.5' -> 0, '0.9' -> 0, '2.7' -> 2, '' / 'abc' / '-2'
/ '0' -> 3. Measured after: '0.5' -> 3, '0.9' -> 3, '2.7' -> 2, and
'Infinity' -> 3 (it is not a cap either).
A cap of 0 is not a narrower cap, it is an off switch. The tests pin
both directions: the fraction falls back, and allowTurn cannot report a
budget of 0 under it.

CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA is empty in the Bash tool's process env, and the Phase 5
bash snippet is the cap's only caller. resolveLedgerPath() returned null there
and allowTurn() failed closed, so the budget gate denied turn 1 of every real
run: the loop this delivery exists to bound could never spend a turn, and the
pre-registered measurement could not be run at all.
resolveDataRoot() is now the single root for everything the loop writes --
CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA when the harness sets it, ~/.claude/voyage when it does
not. Three consumers resolve through it, which is the point: the cap ledger,
the PreToolUse hook's scope-marker lookup, and the command's bash snippets.
A writer and a reader that resolved the root separately are what made the
enforcement hook allow unconditionally in every real run while CLAUDE.md and
docs/architecture.md called it enforcing.
Same root cause, same commit:
- Marker write and remove now share ONE absolute-path guard and one root; the
write requires a non-empty CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID before composing the path
(unset, the marker was named `.json`, which no lookup matches and no TTL
sweep cleans up).
- The per-turn gates resolve VOYAGE_ROOT with a plugin-cache fallback and
reserve exit 2 for "gate could not run". Interpolating an empty
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} ran `node /lib/...` -> exit 1, which the contract read
as "privacy gate says no" -- an unsatisfiable rewrite loop no query could
clear.
Two now-unreachable deny branches are removed rather than left as dead safety
claims (allowTurn's no_plugin_data_dir; the hook's uncountable-ledger deny).
The fail-closed stance stays where it is still real: a ledger that cannot be
WRITTEN denies the turn.
Verified end-to-end through the real bash snippets and the real hook with both
variables stripped and HOME sandboxed: marker written under the fallback root,
8 turns spent, 9th denied, hook exits 2, and exits 0 again after removal.
Note: the fallback exit-2 branch fires against the installed v5.9.1 cache,
which predates lib/util/research-loop-cap.mjs -- correct behaviour, and it
clears when the plugin is reinstalled.

Scores committed agent-run fixtures against the golden corpus at
(file, rule_key) granularity, building on the deterministic coordinator
contract (4a). Offline: committed reviewer payloads, no live agent spawn,
no LLM, no network (the LLM-in-the-loop grading is the separate 4c tier).
- lib/review/gold-scorer.mjs: scoreFindings (precision/recall/f1 at
(file,rule_key) granularity, line+severity ignored) + scoreVerdict; pure,
with documented vacuous-set conventions.
- tests/fixtures/bakeoff-rich/runs/run-perfect.json: committed run that
reproduces all 5 seeded gold findings through runContract.
- tests/lib/gold-eval.test.mjs: the scoring RUN (precision/recall/f1 = 1.0,
verdict == expected_verdict BLOCK, nothing suppressed/skipped).
- lib/util/test-census.mjs: third census category (goldEval) — a scoring run
is neither behavior coverage nor a doc-pin; honest-count invariant now 3-way.
- docs/eval-corpus/README.md: 4b moved from Future hardening to implemented.
Suite 809 -> 822 (820/0/2). gold-scorer covers TP+FP+FN+degenerate paths.

Closes devils-advocate audit §Top changes #8 (MINOR×MED). Reports the
behavior-test count separately from the doc-consistency prose-pin count so the
cited total no longer oversells behavior coverage, and removes the clearest
reword-fragile redundancies. Conservative scope (operator-chosen): no genuine
regression guard dropped.
1. Suite census (report separately). lib/util/test-census.mjs +
tests/lib/test-census.test.mjs walk tests/**/*.test.mjs and bucket top-level
test() declarations into behavior vs doc-consistency-pins (bucket per file,
regex PIN_FILE_RE), asserting the two sum to the total so neither can drift
silently. Split emitted as a t.diagnostic: behavior=601 doc-consistency-pins=69.
Metric = top-level declarations; node:test's runtime total counts subtests
too and is therefore >= it.
2. Conservative prune (3 tests, each provably subsumed):
- "trekexecute.md still parses v1.7 plan schema" — tautological OR-chain;
real coverage = the plan_version:1.7 template pin + plan-validator /
plan-schema behavior tests.
- "CLAUDE.md mentions all six pipeline commands" — hardcoded six-string list
subsumed by the filesystem-driven "commands table mentions every
commands/*.md file" structural pin.
- "CLAUDE.md mentions /trekcontinue command" — same subsumption.
Each removal leaves an in-place note (why + where coverage lives).
3. doc-consistency.test.mjs header now documents the structural-invariant vs
prose/existence-pin distinction so new pins land in the right kind.
TDD: census test written failing-first (ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND before
lib/util/test-census.mjs existed). Suite 699->698 (696 pass / 2 skip / 0 fail):
-3 prune +2 census. plugin validate passes (1 accepted warning).

The v4.2/v4.3 bespoke playground SPA (~388 KB), the /trekrevise command,
Handover 8 (annotation → revision), the supporting lib/ modules
(anchor-parser, annotation-digest, markdown-write, revision-guard), the
Playwright e2e suite, and the @playwright/test / @axe-core/playwright
devDeps are removed. A browser walkthrough found the playground borderline
unusable, and it duplicated the official /playground plugin's
document-critique / diff-review templates.
In their place: scripts/render-artifact.mjs — a small, zero-dependency
renderer that turns a brief/plan/review .md into a self-contained,
design-system-styled, zero-network .html (frontmatter folded into a
<details> block). /trekbrief, /trekplan, and /trekreview call it on their
last step and print the file:// link; to annotate, run /playground
(document-critique) on the .md and paste the generated prompt back.
Resolves the v4.3.1-deferred findings as moot (their target files are
deleted). npm test green: 509 tests, 507 pass, 0 fail, 2 skipped.

Step 9 of v3.4.1 plan.
lib/util/cleanup.mjs (new):
- cleanupProject(projectDir, {dryRun, confirm}) reads
.session-state.local.json via validateSessionState; refuses unless the
parsed status is strictly equal to 'completed' (per risk-assessor
Critical 2 — no soft-match on similar statuses).
- Default dryRun: true; refuses dryRun: false without explicit
confirm: true (CLEANUP_REQUIRES_CONFIRM).
- Removes .session-state.local.json + NEXT-SESSION-PROMPT.local.md
candidates; ENOENT counts as "already absent" so the function is
idempotent.
- No CLI shim — invoked from /ultracontinue --cleanup via inline ESM
(Step 10 wires this in).
tests/lib/cleanup.test.mjs (new):
- 7 cases: dry-run lists candidates without deleting; confirm-mode
deletes both files; idempotent re-run signals CLEANUP_NO_STATE_FILE
after fully cleaned; refuses on status: in_progress
(CLEANUP_NOT_COMPLETED); refuses dryRun: false without confirm
(CLEANUP_REQUIRES_CONFIRM); defaults to dry-run; missing state file
returns CLEANUP_NO_STATE_FILE.
Internal scaffolding consumed by Step 10 (Phase 0.5 wire-up). User-facing
docs land with Step 14.
Tests 348 -> 355 (+7).

Three changes in one commit:
1. NEW lib/util/atomic-write.mjs — exports atomicWriteJson(path, obj),
the canonical tmp+rename pattern. Reused by pre-compact-flush.mjs and
(in subsequent steps) by the new session-state writer.
2. NEW tests/lib/atomic-write.test.mjs — 4 unit tests covering
round-trip, no-orphan-tmp, overwrite-atomic, pretty-print formatting.
3. REFACTOR hooks/scripts/pre-compact-flush.mjs — replace the inline
atomicWrite() with the imported atomicWriteJson(). Also fixes a
pre-existing syntax error (leading whitespace + stray --resume token
outside the comment block) that silently broke the hook from v3.1.0
onward — PreCompact runtime is fail-open and swallowed the error.
File reformatted with standard zero-indent JS.
163 → 167 tests, 0 fail.
Step 2 of /ultracontinue v3.3.0 (project 2026-05-01-ultracontinue).
Step 1 of v2.0 plan. Hard cut from commands/ to skills/ per Anthropic
recommendation for new plugins. Frontmatter sets disable-model-invocation:
true and pins model: claude-sonnet-4-6. Docs (README, CLAUDE.md, root
README) deferred to Step 9 per plan.
