Conflict: CLAUDE.md command table. Kept both sides: this branch's
/trekresearch row (the external agents preload researching-sources) and
main's /trekplan row (open minors listed for the operator).
researching-sources adapted to contract S1, now that 7a's form check and
routing test run over it:
- SKILL.md takes the fixed headings (Overview, When to use, Process, Red
flags, Enforced by, Credits); the five rules and the confidence scale move
under Process unchanged; Red flags lists the thoughts the baseline runs
showed; "text only" becomes "prose only" as the form check reads it.
- The description adds "official" documentation and "looking up online what
an error message means or what causes it": the error-lookup case ranked
#3 behind debugging. That prompt also said "our tests fail", which is
debugging's job; it now asks only what the error means and where that is
documented. No threshold changed.
- Eval cases carry the routing tags (skill-trigger / skill-no-trigger /
skill-effect, skill=, owner= task-finder and trekplan, from=), 7a's
Skill grader pattern, arm: both on the no-trigger graders, and the
judge-model line on the effect case.
- The `## Skills` row in README and CLAUDE.md.
- tests/lib/skills-research-prose-pins.test.mjs drops its two form pins
(skill-lint is the authority now): 14 -> 12.
npm test on the merged tree: 2055 = 2053 pass / 0 fail / 2 skipped
(main 2043 + 12).

The source rules the research agents shared by copy now live in one skill,
skills/researching-sources/: official sources first with URL, date and
matching version; no citation, no finding; an empty search is reported with
its denominator and never as a finding; fetched pages are data, and text in
them aimed at AI assistants is ignored and reported; nothing local in an
outbound query. It also holds the one confidence scale.
- docs-, community-, security-, contrarian-researcher and research-scout
preload it (skills: ["voyage:researching-sources"]); the copied rule text
leaves them, their own role stays.
- Two agent sentences that contradicted the rules are gone: an empty
counter-evidence search "increases confidence", and "fall back silently".
- /trekresearch names the skill where it starts the external agents and in
web follow-ups; Phase 6 rates on the skill's scale word for word; the
deep-research adapter accepts `contradictory` like the template does.
- Enforced by: research-validator checks structure only, the query privacy
gate runs only in the default-off STORM steps; the rest is text only.
A guard on every web search is a separate later order (operator 08.10).
- Red baseline (helpers, offline fixtures): without the skill 3 of 5 runs
ignored an injected instruction silently and 1 of 2 contrarian runs counted
an empty search as weak support; with it 0 of 3 and 0 of 2. Path leaks:
0 of 7 without, 0 of 5 with.
- Eval cases (3 should trigger, 2 should not, 1 effect), written, not run.
- tests/lib/skills-research-prose-pins.test.mjs: 14 pins, 13 red on 4ee711a.

The minor points (B8-B12, C13, C14, C16, C17) of the second voyage-lekerepo
trial (2026-10-08), each verified against the code and started with a test
that failed first.
- K10: optional step field `Regression:` - one command the criteria runner
allows, unpiped; plan-validator refuses one that can never run
(PLAN_STEP_REGRESSION_NOT_RUNNABLE). Any plan_version, no bump.
- K11: `On failure:` opens with revert | retry | skip | escalate, or the
validator warns (PLAN_STEP_ON_FAILURE_UNKNOWN); onFailureAction in
plan-schema.
- B8 (operator decision 2026-10-08): minors open after the last critic round
are listed numbered in the Phase 10 summary; the ones the operator picks are
fixed and get one more round (--extra-round when the 3 are spent).
- B11: plan-review dedup merges two reviewers' findings on the same file:line
with the same content (trial pair: Jaccard 0.44, overlap 0.83); the Jaccard
threshold for every other pair is unchanged.
- B12: /trekbrief Step 4c says the reviewer runs in the background and is
waited for, not "foreground, blocking".
- C13: the Phase 4 size count includes .mjs, .cjs, .mts, .cts.
- C14: --evidence shows the first output line on PASS rows.
- C16: findings-schema checks path:line citations in finding prose (error) and
in the prose around the block (warning) against the file.
- C17: git-historian gets the brief, never proposes changing a frozen file,
and names the remote from `git remote -v`.

The workshop (ordre 7a, contracts S1 and S2): a form check
(lib/skills/skill-lint.mjs) that follows Claude Code's own skill fields,
and a model-free routing test (lib/skills/routing.mjs) over every skill,
the 7 commands and the 21 spawnable agents, reading the eval cases
themselves (evals/skill-*, 3 fire / 2 quiet / 1 effect, tagged with the
event they came from). Thresholds pinned, never lowered.
The two skills were written against failures measured first in helpers
without them: red only as an import crash, the whole suite run from a
hand-made file list instead of the repo's own command, and an
unreproduced fix shipped under authority pressure. step-implementer
preloads both through its skills: line; no tool list change.

Wave 1 (five orders, merged 2026-10-06), the fixes from the two end-to-end
trials in the test repo, and the defects an independent reader found in
them. Plan 1.7, brief 2.0-2.2 and review 1.0 files stay valid; the new
fields are optional.
Suite 1972 (1970 pass, 0 fail, 2 skipped).

CLAUDE.md command table: each row from its owner (trekplan from order 3,
trekexecute from order 1, trekreview from order 5).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
CLAUDE.md: the review paragraph (order 5) and the guards paragraph
(order 4) are both kept (planned union line).
The launch gate went red on the merged tree: post-approval-log reads
the session's permission_mode, and its regression test feeds that value.
Both were untracked when the branch ran its suite, so the gate never saw
them there. Operator decision 2026-10-06: a counted exemption in a new
class (mode-read: 3 + 1 hits), and the binding-rule sentence in CLAUDE.md
names it. An extra hit in either file turns the gate red again (checked).

An independent review of abc3083 found 15 defects, the two worst verified
in scratch repos. Each fix started with a test that failed.
- Proof of red could be "proven" by the environment: a start point
unpacked with git archive had no node_modules and no .git, so any test
failed there. The start point is now a git clone --shared checked out at
start_sha, gitignored top-level entries are linked in, and a control run
(start point + the change) must pass, or the result is not-run.
- The Test first file was never committed (the template lists it apart
from Files:) and leaked into the next step's diff. The step's scope is
now Files: + test files, staged at the checkpoint.
- New files outside Files: were invisible to every check. Every untracked
file is registered with --intent-to-add; a revert unregisters them.
- The floor guard paired renames (foo.test.js -> .bak read as clean) and
missed skipIf and node's t.skip/t.todo; prose files no longer count as
stubs.
- Phase 7.5 audited from the last step's start_sha; it now uses the run's
session_start_sha.
- The done line is written after the checkpoint and checked with --commit.
- fix_rounds never passes 5; attempts are never reset; re-control keeps
the spec/quality verdicts and earlier floor-guard rulings; the closed
stop list maps every existing stop; failed vs stopped made consistent;
the controller's effort is said, not assumed.
Tests: 1470 (1468 pass, 0 fail, 2 skipped).

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.

Wave-1 order 4 (P7, P12, the P9 test lock, the P3 plan-approval guard).
All command hooks; none runs a model.
- P12: pre-bash-executor answers permissionDecision "ask" before merge
into main, push, tag/publish and destructive git (holds in auto mode).
post-approval-log writes exactly what the person was asked to the K2
approval log: merge/push to main as `merge`, tag/publish as `release`,
with a one-hour expiry; nothing when no person was asked.
- P3: pre-plan-gate runs the K3 plan gate on a Voyage plan leaving plan
mode and sends a refused plan back; "not measured" asks, never passes.
- P9: lib/util/test-lock.mjs (K8). pre-write-executor refuses edits to
locked test files; stop-test-lock refuses "done" for the locking
session (stop_hook_active guarded).
- P7: post-edit-check runs the target repo's own formatter/linter per
edit, only during a Voyage plan run or after opt-in
(.claude/voyage-guards.json); lib/verification/step-check.mjs (K9) fails
the step on findings; no tool reads "not measured", never green.
- STORM cap matcher also names `Agent` (the tool's name since 2.1.63).
- Mod precondition stated in README, SECURITY.md and every PreToolUse stop
guard: Voyage's guards are deterministic only when no installed mod
handles `tool.check`.
K2, K3 and K5 are stubbed in tests until orders 2 and 3 are merged.
Two independent review rounds; every finding has a regression test.
Suite 1600 (1598 pass / 0 fail / 2 skipped).

Operator decision 2026-10-06. Before, a WARN that existed only because a
reviewer or engine never reported (e.g. /security-review without an origin
remote) mapped to verdict-gate exit 0, so a review nobody performed in full
was green. Now `missing-reviewer:` / `unattributable-payload` in the JSON
block's allow_blocked_by is exit 2 (could not decide, never green); a WARN
for a MAJOR or a set-aside finding still passes with its reasons. A 1.1
review must carry allow_blocked_by.

/trekexecute no longer builds steps itself. Each plan step is built by one
fresh helper (new agent step-implementer: opus, effort high, no Agent tool)
and judged by one controller (a general helper on opus) that reads the
diff from a recorded start_sha and gives two verdicts, spec and quality.
Fix rounds go up, maximum 5: three fixes by a fresh helper, then back to
the plan, then to the operator. No cheaper-model ladder.
Proof is a command, never the model's word:
- lib/verification/red-proof.mjs: the step's test must fail at the start
point and pass at the result (exit 0/1/2; 2 is never green). Reproduces
the 02243c6 red-first measurement (6 of 55) through the shim fixture.
- lib/verification/test-integrity.mjs: the floor guard on the diff
(removed asserts, skipped/deleted tests, muted checks, stubs, loosened
thresholds). Over the last 150 commits: 149 clean, 1 real finding.
- lib/verification/done-line.mjs: DONE step N only when the test command
exits 0.
Test first is required from plan_version 1.8. The test lock (K8) is used
through its CLI and reported as not-locked while it is missing. A run
stops only on a closed list of four classes; every other call goes into a
decision log with its cost if wrong. Without a passing run-the-thing
criterion the result is not verified end to end, never green.
Handover 5 gains optional per-step start_sha, report_path, red_proof,
test_lock, fix_rounds (0-5) and run-level decisions and end_to_end; old
progress files still validate and resume.
No isolation on the helper: measured, a worktree-isolated subagent
branches from the default branch (02f320f), not the executor's HEAD
(2c89a6b), so it would miss the earlier steps.

Ordre 5 (wave 1, P11 + P5), review_version 1.1.
- K7: `verdict: ALLOW | WARN | BLOCK` is required in review.md (strict
error, soft warning for 1.0 reviews). New CLI lib/review/verdict-gate.mjs:
0 = ALLOW/WARN, 1 = BLOCK, 2 = could not decide (never green); a verdict
greener than the file's own BLOCKERs or JSON block is exit 2. Realpath
main guard (the old file:// guard exits 0 under a symlink - measured).
- No finding is struck for length: succinctness trims only MINOR/SUGGESTION
text (catalogue tier), keeps BLOCKER/MAJOR whole, counts trims; the
coordinator lists what it declined to judge.
- Claude Code's /code-review and /security-review run as the engine via the
Skill tool (never --fix/--comment/--post/ultra); lib/review/engine-findings.mjs
turns their findings into a reviewer payload; two catalogue keys
(CODE_REVIEW_DEFECT, SECURITY_REVIEW_VULNERABILITY), catalogue 12 -> 14.
An engine that did not run forbids ALLOW.
- Every BLOCKER is written as a numbered `### Step R<n>` with its source
finding (strict error REVIEW_MISSING_REMEDIATION_STEP).
- P5: lib/review/recurrence.mjs - a finding class in two review.md files
(current + git history, no new store) becomes one proposal, routed by the
catalogue's memory_route; written only between Voyage markers in
.claude/rules/voyage-review-lessons.md under a size budget, CLAUDE.md gets
a pointer only; the operator approves every line (Phase 8.7).
- Workflow substrate: catalogue enum in step; a missing reviewer or engine
forbids ALLOW there too (it returned ALLOW on zero findings before).
- Fixtures review-run-A/B said WARN over a BLOCKER; now BLOCK.

P1 (order 2, wave 1). /trekbrief puts the task in a size class
(ceremony: small|bounded|architectural, K1; heaviest in doubt, said
aloud, overridable, only moved up) that sets the question budget and the
review cap, and asks one round of questions: facts looked up, never
asked; recommendation first; ranked by impact x uncertainty with a
visible Deferred list; stop when the next three answers can be predicted.
"høres bra ut", "gjør som du vil" and an empty answer are not approval.
K2: lib/util/approval-log.mjs, an append-only hash-chained log in the
target repo (.claude/voyage/approvals.jsonl) bound to the approved
content's sha256; append/verify (0/1/2), answer, digest. Committed by
lib/util/artifact-commit.mjs: the log always, the brief and plan only
with artifact_store: git (operator decision 2026-10-06). /trekplan
Phase 1 halts on a broken, diverged, missing or mismatched log entry;
Phase 11 logs and commits an explicit plan approval before any handoff.
Both new brief fields are optional: no brief_version bump. The
main-module guard in intent-approval.mjs and brief-validator.mjs now
compares real paths. Borrowings credited in the prose and module headers.

hooks.json wired pre-write-executor.mjs to the Write tool only, so Edit and
NotebookEdit reached .git/hooks/, .env, shell configs and the other protected
paths unguarded. The matcher is now Write|Edit|NotebookEdit.
The guard reads the target path per tool: file_path for Write and Edit (hooks
reference, PreToolUse tool_input tables), notebook_path for NotebookEdit (the
tool's input schema). When it cannot read a path (unparseable input, unknown
tool, missing field) it now blocks instead of allowing.
New tests resolve hooks.json with Claude Code's matcher semantics and run the
hooks that would fire per tool: 9 failed on the old code, all pass now. The two
fail-open pins in path-guard.test.mjs are flipped to fail closed.

Operator rule (2026-10-05): standard is Opus 5.5 at reasoning effort High. Four retrieval agents (architecture-mapper, dependency-tracer, git-historian, task-finder) pinned effort: medium in frontmatter, which overrides the session level, so every /trekplan exploration ran part of its swarm below the floor. They came from fdd3ad8 on the premise that unpinned agents inherit high; e4e37f9 corrected that (unpinned inherits the session; Opus 5.5 defaults to medium), so the reason for medium was already gone. All four now pin high; the other agents keep following the session (operator's choice). docs/profiles.md (one bullet for the eight pinned agents), CLAUDE.md and README.md updated; the model-default sentence stays. Dated decision records and CHANGELOG untouched.
Red: 4 of 5 new tests fail on the pre-fix files - effort floor over all agents (offenders: the four), the four pin exactly high, no live doc says retrieval runs at medium (hits docs/profiles.md:76, CLAUDE.md:85, README.md:806), profiles.md names the four as high. Known-positive control green on arrival.
Verify 153/153 (agent-frontmatter, doc-consistency). SC9 probe: npm test green under a scratch HOME with CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA empty, nothing under its plugin data dir. Suite 1393 (1391/0/2).
The change is repo-true, not installed-true, until a release.

event-emit returned {written:false, reason:'CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA unset'} whenever the harness did not export the variable - the normal case for the Bash tool - so /trekexecute's Phase 8 events never landed. It now resolves the directory through stats-append's resolveStatsDir (one resolver; opts.path still wins, so intent-approval is unchanged). The CLI uses the realpath isMain() guard (the file:// guard was a silent no-op under a symlink or a path with a space) and exits 1 on every written:false - usage error, payload-not-json, failed write - instead of always 0. KNOWN_EVENTS gains main-merge-approved, main-merge-declined and gates_mode_flag_override, which /trekexecute emits by design. Header, intent-approval docstring (comment only), docs/operations.md and the README autonomy sentence (wrong state names, 'records each transition') updated.
Red: 10 of 20 tests fail on the pre-fix code - 7 new (CLI lands with CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA empty / absent, unwritable target exit 1, usage error exit 1, symlink, space path, known events) and 3 inverted contracts. Regression guards (green on arrival): never throws when unwritable; no second copy of the fallback directory name.
Inverted (the contract this changes, not deleted): emit with no CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA (silent skip) -> lands under a pinned HOME; never throws when unwritable -> a genuinely unwritable target (env {} now resolves to the real home); resolveStatsPath({}) === null -> the fallback path; malformed --payload exit 0 -> exit 1.
Readers checked: otel-export keys on 'event', yardstick counts only user_input, cache-analyzer and research-loop-cap name event-emit only in comments. Verify 268/268 (stats-event-emit, intent-approval, doc-consistency, otel-export-validators, yardstick). Suite 1376 (1374/0/2); non-hook lines in the real trekexecute-stats.jsonl 60 before and after.

/trekbrief Phase 7 says the writer adds order_id / order_claimed_at /
order_reason (never typed by the model) and that the yardstick joins use on
order_id; the fixture row lists them in `fields`, EXPORT_DENYLIST names them,
and its stale line_ref (657-672) now reads 961-976; the allowlist header
names them as dropped; docs/architecture.md Stats explains them.
/trekbrief --approve now runs Phase 7 after a successful stamp, with fixed

from the brief's frontmatter, auto_result "manual", intent_approved true).

Verified 2026-10-02 against code.claude.com/docs/en/model-config and
/sub-agents. On the Anthropic API opus -> Opus 5.5 and sonnet ->
Sonnet 5.5 (default effort medium), fable -> Fable 5.1 (default high).
Three more claims in the same section were false and are corrected:
an agent without effort: inherits the session level, not the model
default; MAX_THINKING_TOKENS=0 has no effect on Opus 5.5, Sonnet 5.5
or Fable; effort is capped by maxEffortLevel or an organization cap.
"Mythos-class" is replaced by the docs' own wording. History is
untouched (CHANGELOG, the measurement docs, the Path C line).
STATE said seven files but listed six; the red pin found exactly
these six. The end-state registry line names a CC changelog fact and
stays as history.

README claimed four security layers including scoped per-child tool
access (gone with the launched children), an auto-dispatched Phase 7.6
recovery session and a launch template; architecture.md still pointed at
launch.sh. They now describe what 6.0.0 does: session specs plus
orders.md, a recovery order for a session the user opens, three layers.
operations.md gets a status note instead of a rewrite (decision record).

Operator decision 27.09.2026: Voyage works the PM way, so nothing in it
starts Claude Code. Work that needs another session becomes an order plus
a starter line the user gives a session they open themselves; Voyage
never starts the session.
/trekexecute's multi-session path (Phase 2.6) now prepares one wave at a
time: worktree per session, then lib/util/session-orders.mjs writes one
order per session (worktree, steps, done-condition, starter) plus
orders/wave.json, and the run stops. Running the same command again reads
each session's progress file (status mode), merges sequentially with
push-before-cleanup as before, and prepares the next wave. Phase 2.5 skips
the destructive pre-flight while a wave is in flight. Phase 7.6 recovery is
handed over the same way. Hard rule 21: never start Claude Code.
Removed with it, because they existed only for launched children: the
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY billing check (and its dry-run line and Hard rule 1
exception), the hooks-fire version precheck, the safety preamble, the
scoped-tool/turn/budget flags, templates/headless-launch-template.md, the
decomposer's launch.sh (now orders.md), /trekplan's "launch", the README
billing and MCP tuning sections, and scripts/q3-cache-prefix-experiment.mjs
(an experiment that spawned the binary; its results stay in docs/).
/trekresearch's deep-research pre-gate no longer runs the binary for its
version; the post-hoc check was already the authoritative guard.
Chose orders + starters over in-session subagents because the order's done
criterion asks for exactly that, and because /trekexecute disallows the
Agent tool on purpose (Hard rule 10); reopening that is a separate change.
Gate: 54 -> 0 hit lines outside EXEMPT. npm test 1250 (1245 pass, 0 fail,
5 skipped: 3 are the retired-reference scan without its local list).
verify.sh 7/0. The fixture run (tests/lib/session-orders.test.mjs) writes
two orders and wave.json for wave 1 and leaves a trap binary untouched.

5.11.0 ships from the base commit before this branch lands, so the
reference cleanup and its hygiene check go out as 5.11.1: plugin.json,
package.json, package-lock.json (both fields), the README badge and a new
CHANGELOG entry. No tag.
Suite after staging: 1240 tests, 1238 pass, 0 fail, 2 skipped;
verify.sh 7 pass, 0 fail.

The annotation surface's provenance is now described as the pattern it
follows (pencil toggle, intent buttons, popover form, structured export)
rather than by naming a repository that no longer exists. Touches the
plugin/package descriptions, README, docs/architecture.md, the v5.0.3
CHANGELOG entry, and two comments in scripts/annotate.mjs and its test.
Retired-reference check: 12 hits in 7 files -> 0 (content and path names).

Version 5.11.0 in every file that carries it: .claude-plugin/plugin.json,
package.json, package-lock.json (both entries; they said 5.10.0, drift
from before 5.10.1), the README badge, and a CHANGELOG entry for
everything since v5.10.1. Chose a minor bump because /trekplan gains a
halt (a new capability, additive schema). Handover 1 changes for
downstream producers: their briefs stop at /trekplan until approved.
No tag and no catalog bump here: release-plugin.mjs runs in the operator's
push round.
Suite after git add: 1234 tests, 1232 pass / 0 fail / 2 skip in 2 of 3
runs. The third failed only the known timing test otel SC #14 tail-latency
(877 ms against an 800 ms ceiling), which this order leaves alone.

M1: headings inside fenced code blocks and HTML comments are text, not
headings, and ## Intent / ## Goal must each appear exactly once. A second
section, an example section in a code block or comment, or a '## ' line in
a code block inside Intent no longer carries the old approval: check gives
INVALID (duplicate) or STALE, stamp refuses a duplicate. A plain brief
hashes exactly as before (pinned), so no stamped brief goes stale.
Re-run of the PM's 29 probes: vi-a, vi-b, vii-a, vii-b now stop; the rest
unchanged. The PM's p7c probe was a no-op (its replace string is not in the
base brief); vii-c is covered by its own test, red on 66e1fa1.
M2: /trekbrief --approve takes <project-dir | brief-file>. New
intent-approval.mjs --resolve decides: a directory → <dir>/brief.md and
/trekplan --project; a file → itself and /trekplan --brief. Phase 4h and the
stamp line use {BRIEF_PATH}; /trekplan's halt table names
/trekbrief --approve {brief_path}, which works on both brief modes, and so
does the gate's hint. HANDOVER-CONTRACTS' "open to every producer's brief"
is now true. Chose fixing the path over rewording the contract because two
real briefs (docs/*-brief.md) had no approval path at all.
Red ff760ed 9/29 → green 29/29. Suite 1219: 1217 pass / 0 fail / 2 skip.

Veikart steg 1, økt 1 av 2. The three holes measured in the grounds:
(1) ## Intent / ## Goal were only checked for existence, (2) no approval
marker existed, (3) brief-approved was emitted only on the auto path.
- lib/validators/intent-approval.mjs: --check / --stamp. The marker is
intent_approved_hash (sha256 over normalized ## Intent + ## Goal) +
intent_approved_at. Editing either section after approval → STALE.
- /trekplan Phase 1 (Read the brief, both --brief and --project): runs
--check and HALTS on BRIEF_INTENT_NOT_APPROVED / _STALE / _INVALID with
the remedy spelled out; an unrunnable check halts too.
- /trekbrief Phase 4h (before the Phase 5 fork, asked even in --quick):
shows Intent + Goal verbatim, AskUserQuestion Approve / Revise / Leave;
only "Approve" runs --stamp. --stamp emits brief-approved, so the manual
(default) path records it; the auto path's own emission is removed.
New mode /trekbrief --approve <project-dir> = Phase 4h alone.
- README, CLAUDE.md, command-modes, HANDOVER-CONTRACTS §Handover 1,
jsonl-schemas (trekbrief-stats gains intent_approved).
Valgt ingen brief_version-bump fordi skjemaendringen er rent additiv (to
valgfrie felt) og kravet sitter i /trekplan — enhver produsents brief kan
godkjennes via /trekbrief --approve uten produsentendring. Valgt eget
--check-kall i stedet for et flagg på brief-validator fordi --brief-stien
i dag ikke kjører validatoren i det hele tatt; et nytt validatorkall der
ville også stoppe på andre feil. Valgt fallback-datamappe = målestokkens
(plugins/data/voyage-…) fordi CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA er tom i Bash-miljøet og
event-emits egen fallback er stille skip — slik ble brief-approved 0 records.
What the marker does NOT prove (module header, command prose, contract):
same user, same machine — any session can stamp. A trace, not a signature.
Suite 1183 → 1201 (1199/0/2). Mutants M1–M5 (stale check off, check
always valid, gate line removed, stamp emits nothing, no normalization)
each fell ≥ 1 test. yardstick unchanged: RED, 1 of 3 countable.

D-07 had been closed on CLAUDE.md alone. The same false claim lived on elsewhere:
- README.md's "Switch the planning model" said four commands default to opus.
- The same README section offered a sed recipe for `model: opus` frontmatter lines, which
0 of 7 command files have.
- commands/trekresearch.md said "the orchestrator runs on Opus".
Since v5.9.0 no command pins model:, so the orchestrator follows the session model.
- README: the section now says how it actually works. You pick the orchestrator's model with
the session model (`claude --model sonnet` or `/model`). Sub-agent models are resolved at
the spawn sites: brief phase_signals, then profile phase_models, then the agents/*.md pins
as fallback. `--profile economy` still moves the sub-agents to Sonnet.
- trekresearch Launch rules: "Use model: "opus" for all sub-agents" contradicted the same
file's own three-layer resolution, which v5.9.0 wired into the spawn sites and the file
documents in Phase 1 and Hard rules -> Cost. The rule now injects
`phase_signal_result.model` with agent frontmatter as the fallback, and says the
orchestrator follows the session model. Nothing changes under the default premium
profile: it still resolves to opus. The engine=swarm note now names the resolved-model
injection as the anchor, instead of the removed literal.
- Two doc-consistency pins were written first and failed before this change:
- no opus-orchestrator claim in README/CLAUDE.md/trekresearch, and no `^model: opus$`
recipe;
- the Launch rules name `phase_signal_result.model` and carry no blanket opus rule.
- Not touched: the follow-up agent in the default-off STORM phase still says model: "opus".
That is part of an experiment whose fate is an operator decision.
End-state gate D-07: open -> closed. Defects 3 -> 2 of 7 (D-03, D-04 remain, by design);
registry integrity intact. Suite 1081 (1079/0/2), run on a clean export of the index.

gemini-bridge is dropped by operator directive (three repetitions). The drop is
permanent, not a wait-for-SDK-upgrade state, so the change clears every LIVE
surface that could still steer a run toward the agent and leaves the historical
record alone.
Live surfaces cleared: agents/gemini-bridge.md deleted; trekresearch (bridge
launch block, --local help, high-effort always-on pair, stats record,
degradation list), trekplan, trekbrief, research-orchestrator (mode table,
agent table, prompting block, summary line), README (feature prose, mode table,
agent prose, mermaid EXTERNAL node, conditional legend, optional-MCP
requirement, --local section), CLAUDE.md, settings.json (the whole
trekresearch.geminiBridge block), both templates, architecture.md,
command-modes.md.
trekplan high-effort Adversarial Pass 2 now degrades EXPLICITLY: it emits its
section with status "unavailable, skipped" instead of failing or vanishing. A
high-effort plan carrying no Pass 2 marker is indistinguishable from one whose
Pass 2 crashed, which is the failure mode this wording exists to prevent.
gemini_used is deliberately KEPT as a vestigial trekresearch stats field pinned
to false. Removing it would break the observability export schema for existing
consumers, and the directive was about the agent, not the field.
Not touched: CHANGELOG history and the measurement/decision docs keep their
gemini references. They record what a past version did or what was measured
then; rewriting them is the same defect class as bumping a version string
inside a measurement doc.
Driven test-first. Five new pins in tests/lib/doc-consistency.test.mjs, verified
RED before the edits, including a KNOWN-POSITIVE CONTROL asserting the
historical records still DO carry gemini references — so the empty result on
live surfaces is a measurement and not a broken query (Verifiseringsloven
ansikt 4). Agent inventory 24 -> 23 (20 spawnable + 3 orchestrator reference
docs); the <example>-block floor moves 34 -> 32 because an agent legitimately
left the inventory, not because examples went missing from a surviving one.
Docs: docs/T1-cc26-delegated-orchestration.md §8 item 3 claimed both the §6
synthesis-agent PoC and the §5 bake-off were "designed but unbuilt". That was
written in S7 and falsified the same afternoon by S12, which ran the §6 PoC and
recorded Δ main-context (faithful flow) = 0.0%, NEGATIVE. The stale wording is
what caused the settled PoC to be re-ordered as new work on 2026-09-02, so it is
struck rather than deleted and §6 gained a RUN AND DECLINED status block. The
finding is structural, not stochastic: Phase 5 spawns the exploration swarm
foreground (trekplan.md:158,338-341), so the outputs are already resident in
main before Phase 7 — delegating only the Phase-7 digest evicts nothing.
Also measured 2026-09-03 (CC 2.1.259): claude -p --output-format stream-json
runs on subscription auth with no ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and now emits a
subagent_stats block, so S12's environment-block premise is half stale. Recorded
in §8 item 4. It lowers the cost of §5; it changes nothing about §6.
Suite 1041 (1039/0/2), up from 1036 by exactly the five tests added.

Claude Code 2.1.218 changed /deep-research to start only when invoked
manually; from there the Skill tool refuses a model invocation outright
with `disable-model-invocation` (measured in a real `--engine deep-research`
run 2026-09-01 18:32Z - the SC3 fallback to swarm held). The engine was
built against 2.1.196 and the prose still promised a path Claude Code has
removed ("requires Claude Code 2.1.154+").
The flag is KEPT as an additive opt-in that never hard-fails. Prose only:
no lib/ change, no adapter-contract change, no default change, no version
bump.
- commands/trekresearch.md: flag bullet states the closed window
`2.1.154 <= CC < 2.1.218`; the pre-gate gained an UPPER ceiling (still a
numeric comparison, not a string one) that skips straight to the fallback
with reason `disable-model-invocation`; step 3 names the Skill-tool
refusal as a known failure manifestation; step 4 lists the reason tokens.
- docs/command-modes.md + README.md: same window, one sentence each, on the
reference row itself.
- CHANGELOG.md: Unreleased/Docs entry.
Tests first (Iron Law): tests/lib/doc-consistency.test.mjs gained a pin
requiring 2.1.218 + disable-model-invocation on all three surfaces, on both
reference rows, and in both load-bearing regions of the command (flag
bullet + pre-gate). Seen red on all three surfaces before the prose change.
tests/commands/trekresearch-engine.test.mjs unchanged and green.
New baseline: 1024 tests, 1022 pass / 0 fail / 2 skip (was 1023: 1021/0/2).

Version sync across the five surfaces that carry it (plugin.json, package.json,
package-lock.json x2, README badge) plus the CHANGELOG section for the 38
commits since v5.9.1. The two docs that print "voyage 5.9.1" are measurement
records and keep the version they were measured against.
Suite 1013 (1011 pass / 0 fail / 2 skip), unchanged by the bump.

The old URL pointed at anthropics/anthropic-cookbook/tree/main/tool-use/gemini-mcp,
which never existed: the repo was renamed to claude-cookbooks, the path used a
hyphen where the directory uses an underscore, and the tool_use directory (21
entries, checked via the API) has no gemini-mcp entry at all. The server voyage
actually calls is the operator's private gemini-mcp repo, which isn't published
anywhere a stranger could reach. Replace the false promise with the tool
contract itself (the four MCP tool names) so the line stays actionable without
asserting a URL that doesn't resolve.
D11 (org-ops census) consolidates GOVERNANCE.md to one canonical file in
repo-standard. Our copy was byte-identical to the removal-wave baseline
(md5 736fc9d6af84fbd83c9cc7f860d8c8b7, 131 lines); the canonical file
differs only by generalising plugin/marketplace wording to
repository/organisation (md5 3df3603325d3d6937fd560c3f67b5a5d, 131 lines,
HTTP 200 - both measured before this commit).
Removal and repointing land in the SAME commit so no
LINK-INTERNAL-MISSING window opens.
The census listed one link site (README.md:9). There are two: MIGRATION.md:9
carries a backtick prose reference that their suggested README-only grep
would not have caught. Both are repointed here; MIGRATION.md:9 becomes a
markdown link with its text unchanged.
Nothing gates on the file for this repo: repo-standard/register/repos.json
puts voyage in class "plugin", whose required_files are README.md, LICENSE,
CHANGELOG.md and .claude-plugin/plugin.json. GOVERNANCE.md is required only
for class "catalog".

CLAUDE.md claimed both STORM phases go inert when the flag is unset. Only
Phase 5 did: the flag check lives in research-loop-cap.mjs, and Phase 4.5
never invokes the cap — it was gated on effort: high alone. At high effort
with the flag unset, discovery still mined Phase-4 output and mutated the
dimension list, so `dimensions` diverged from `dimensions_baseline` and the
decline branch was unreachable for half the mechanism.
The code was the deviator, so the guard is fixed rather than the claim: the
Phase 4.5 skip-guard now names both conditions, with the reason inline.
Three surfaces scoped the flag to "the loop" and are corrected with it
(README, docs/command-modes, docs/architecture), plus the orchestrator phase
map. CLAUDE.md's claim is now true, but its stated MECHANISM was not — Phase
4.5's inertness comes from its own guard, not from the cap module — so that
sentence is corrected too.
New doc-consistency pin: the flag must be documented as gating both phases on
all four reference surfaces. Review finding 00a3af1a.

D12 (org-ops docs/decisions.md, 2026-08-01) requires the plugin-class
disclosure line to be self-contained with three parts: generator, process,
and the ownership basis. Voyage carried the first two; adds the Anthropic
Consumer Terms §4 clause so the line no longer depends on a cross-repo
anchor that does not exist.

The `[Full disclosure →](../../README.md#ai-generated-code-disclosure)`
link was inherited from the monorepo layout. In a standalone repo `../../`
resolves outside the repository (404), and the anchor never existed in any
README. Replaced with the inline sentence the polyrepo migration intended.

repo-standard gate (plugin class) flagged 6 ERROR. Fixed all six:
- README-DESC: H1 is now `# voyage` (was `# trekplan — …`, stale from the
rename) and the opening line is byte-identical to the forge description,
so description == catalog == README on all three surfaces.
- INSTALL-NO-CLI + HEADING-MISSING: new first-screen `## Install` with the
CLI install command (`claude plugin install voyage@ktg-plugin-marketplace`)
beside `marketplace add`; the `enabledPlugins` JSON is kept as the second
form. Retires the duplicate `## Installation` section further down (its
architect paragraph already exists verbatim under Quick start) and drops
the now-redundant install lines from the Quick start block.
- HEADING-MISSING: `## Non-goals` (promotes the existing "What it doesn't
solve" list) and `## Changelog` (release notes moved off the first screen,
per the standard, now a link + one line per recent version — keeps the
doc-consistency pin on framing / brief_version 2.2).
Remaining 3 gate ERROR are a classifier defect in the gate, not this repo:
directory link targets (`agents/`, `examples/observability/`) are checked
against `git ls-files`, which never contains directories. Links are correct
and left as-is by operator decision; reported to repo-standard via coord.
Suite: 832 tests, 829 pass, 1 fail, 2 skipped — the failure is the

Phase 3 (atomic-write) and Phase 4 (validator) used !`...` eager-exec
with unresolved runtime placeholders; the harness executes those at
command LOAD time, so zsh parsed <project-dir> as input redirection and
/trekendsession aborted before the model saw a single instruction.
Both blocks are now plain runtime Bash fences with {curly} placeholders
(shell-inert, trekplan.md convention) and absolute ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}
paths (cwd-relative plugin paths were a latent ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND in
any user repo). Phase 1 discovery block keeps its legitimate eager-exec.
Regression guard: new tests/commands/trekendsession.test.mjs flags any
!`-block in commands/*.md containing <angle>/{curly} placeholders, and
pins Phase 3/4 as runtime Bash. Suite 828 -> 832 (830/0/2). E2E: fixed
