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.

Wave 1 of a 6-session parallel build revealed three failure modes:
(1) hallucinated completion (status=completed after 2/5 steps, last
tool call was an arbitrary file review), (2) fail-late bash (3/6
sessions had push blocked inside sub-agent sandbox after all work
was done), (3) no objective verification (plans were prose).
v1.7 closes all three by making the plan an executable contract.
Per-step YAML manifest (expected_paths, commit_message_pattern,
bash_syntax_check, forbidden_paths, must_contain) is the objective
completion predicate. Plan-critic dimension 10 (Manifest quality)
is a hard gate. Session decomposer propagates manifests verbatim
and emits an obligatory Step 0 pre-flight (git push --dry-run,
exit 77 sentinel) in every session spec.
ultraexecute-local gets Phase 7.5 (independent manifest audit from
git log + filesystem, ignoring agent bookkeeping) and Phase 7.6
(bounded recovery dispatch, recovery_depth ≤ 2). Hard Rule 17
forbids marking a step passed without manifest verification. Hard
Rule 18 forbids ending on an arbitrary tool call before reporting.
Division of labor is made explicit:
- /ultraresearch-local gathers context (no build decisions)
- /ultraplan-local produces an executable contract (manifests,
plan-critic gate)
- /ultraexecute-local executes disciplined (does NOT compensate
for weak plans — escalates)
Code complete. Docs partial (Arbeidsdeling table + manifest section
added to plugin + marketplace READMEs). Verification tests
(10-sequence) pending — see REMEMBER.md.
Backward compat: v1.6 plans without plan_version marker get
legacy mode with synthesized manifests and legacy_plan: true in
progress file. Plan-critic emits advisory, not block.

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.
