Round 9 (0f400d3..a10018f, WARN: 0 BLOCKER, 12 MAJOR): seven findings and
three brief notes, by operator choice. Each finding began with a test that
failed on a10018f on its assertion; suite 2230 (2228/0/2).
- A check refused for its comment (a quote, $, backtick or backslash) keeps
its command and its reason, and every reader refuses it out loud: a nested
## Verification bullet stays a criterion (PLAN_VERIFICATION_NOT_RUNNABLE)
and a brief SC warns (BRIEF_SC_NOT_RUNNABLE). It was folded into a
sub-point or read as prose, a regression from a10018f. Readers that took a
command as runnable (the end-to-end lists) skip a refused one.
- The verdict gate reads the last fenced block's info string and body from
one reading, and exits 2 unless the info string is exactly json: a last
block opened as ```json {x} held a BLOCKER the gate passed with exit 0
(also in 6.3.0). A last block never closed is exit 2 too.
- One fence reader (findings-schema fencedBlocks) for the gate and every
trailing-json reader: a fence closes only on a run at least as long as its
opener, as in Markdown, so a four-backtick example of a json block is one
block; CRLF and an indented fence read alike in the gate and the readers.
- Files: a description runs on past a comma and onto the next line until a
new entry starts (a list item on a new line, or a backticked path), and a
plain path followed by a colon starts its description. Measured over all
939 Files: fields in the .md files under the marketplace and the test repo
(560 of them in the 48 plan.md files outside worktrees): 0 read
differently, tests-only changed in 0.
- The test lock compares --cmd by its words, so other blanks between the
same words are the step's command.
- release-check decides "two files" on real paths: one review.md reached
through a symlinked --repo is one file.
- Brief notes: red proof's stopped control run has its own test (green at
once, red with the branch deleted); the two tests that assumed jest is not
installed run with a PATH that finds only git (red on a10018f with a jest
on PATH, green now); the Files: reader's doc states the measured counts
(520 fields in 48 plan files at rounds 7-8, not "182 plans"; 560 now).
Not in this round (operator 2026-10-11): a144e9ce, 1dc2e785, dc3a467e,
2fa88853, 26873fa5.

Round 8 (0f400d3..29b4ac9, BLOCK: 1 BLOCKER, 12 MAJOR, 1 MINOR). Each fix
began with a test that failed on 29b4ac9 (13 tests, all red there); suite
2221 (2219/0/2).
- BLOCKER: a backticked check whose trailing comment holds a quote, $,
backtick or backslash is refused, not dropped. The comment was never
screened, while the executor hands the Verify span as written to red
proof, the test lock and the done line inside --cmd "...", where a $(...)
runs and a quote ends the argument. trekplan's text and the reviewer's
NOT RUN table say so.
- A span that is only a comment is not-a-command, not a placeholder. The
dropComment text says the allowlist still refuses a word with a # in it.
- The criteria runner, comparison-gate and end-state-gate use isMain: they
did nothing and exited 0 under a symlinked path. The test now refuses any
process.argv[1] comparison outside lib/util/is-main.mjs.
- Files: in a field with backticked paths, a plain word counts only before
the entry's description (a dash, or a colon after the path); a name with
no slash only first in its entry or after and/or/+/&. "mocks
fs.readFileSync", "runs on Node.js 22.x" or "no change to package.json"
no longer make a tests-only step look like it builds something.
Lowercase makefile, rakefile and justfile are build files. Measured on the
520 Files: fields in 48 plans of the marketplace and the test repo:
3 fields read differently (two notes no longer read as files, one
duplicate name dropped), tests-only changed in 0.
- The test lock compares --cmd without its trailing comment, and the test
lock and the done line read a stop with stoppedBy, the one reading.
red-proof drops its second reading, spawnError.
- release-check reads a relative --review in --repo or, when only that one
exists, from the current directory as 6.3.0 did; two different files are
exit 2, never guessed. The runbook says so.
- One trailing-json reader: a closing fence may be longer than three
backticks, in the block reader and the verdict gate alike, and the review
validator and the synthesis digest use it, so three backticks inside a
JSON string no longer hide a BLOCKER from the remediation-step check.

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.

Round 6 (v6.2.0..c3641ff, WARN: 11 MAJOR, 3 MINOR; 0 BLOCKER). The round-5
fixes hold (code-correctness-reviewer); three of the new MAJOR were side
effects of running checks with no shell. Each fixed behind a test that
failed first on c3641ff.
- git checks stay in the repo too: no path that climbs out with .., starts
at / or reads <rev>:../x, and no --no-index (both reviewers).
- A trailing `# comment` on a shell-fence line is dropped: with no shell,
its words made an honest check NOT RUN, among them the first check of the
shipped example plan.
- A glob reaches `node --test` only on Node 21 and later, which expands it
itself; on an older Node it is refused with that reason (engines >=18).
- With no shell, exit 126/127 is the test program's own: red proof reads it
as a red (the control run still tells an environment fault apart), the
done line and the test lock as a failure.
- A runner that could not start (not installed) is NOT RUN in the criteria
runner and not-run (exit 2) in regression-check, as red-proof and
done-line already said; never a red suite.
- Tests-only: a backticked `Makefile` alone in its entry is a path, and red
proof confirms the plan's tests-only reading against the step's own diff
(the altitude finding: the diff is a fact, the Files: prose is not).
- release-check stops a suite that never ends (15 minutes) and reads it as
not measured (exit 2).
- The two lines this release added to pre-bash-executor.mjs are ASCII.
- MINOR: git and the other runners share one plain-word pattern.
Not in this round: MINOR f00a2eb8 (shared norm/ticked-path and isMain
helpers) and MINOR on plan-review-dedup's repeated tokenizing.
Suite 2194 (2192/0/2).

Round 5 (v6.2.0..d37e538, WARN: 11 MAJOR, 2 MINOR). The patching did not
converge (the same two places every round), so the operator chose a
structural fix on 2026-10-11. Each change behind a test that failed first.
- A check runs with no shell. criteria-runner's runCommand starts the runner
with the very words the screen checked (spawnSync(words[0], words.slice(1)),
without NODE_TEST_CONTEXT); Phase 7 criteria, Regression: (its exec copy is
gone, MINOR 0e98d5c7), proof of red, the done line and the test lock all
run through it. No quote, glob, tilde or variable can rewrite a checked
word any more. The screen stays and says why: a word that means something
else in a shell (quote, backslash, $, brace, leading ~) is refused; a glob
reaches only node --test, which expands its own patterns (sh read
`tests/.?/` as `tests/../`); no path climbs out with .. or starts at /;
a word starting with @ is refused (pytest reads @file as more arguments).
- The K6 plan-file sweep has v6.2.0's own Files: reader again (516dffa):
backticked paths, and plain words only in a field without them. The
shared reader from round 3 planned directories a description named and
dropped paths v6.2.0 planned. fieldPaths stays for the tests-only check,
with a path test on spans (`parse()`, `p.parse()` are no paths), plain
descriptions ignored when the field has backticked paths, dotfiles,
backslash paths and glued spans read.
- Skill frontmatter reads a value as YAML does: trailing space is nothing,
and a comment ends a plain value, a flow list or a block indicator
(`model: opus # pinned`). A comment that cuts a plain description, or is
the whole value, is still a hazard.
- release-check reads the diff with --no-renames: a test moved into an
allowed place after the review shows as removed.
- The example plan's step 2 heading no longer says "must FAIL initially";
steps 1-2 keep the tests-only warning (operator 2026-10-09, 73262b6).
Open: MINOR c1fef1ad (one shared isMain helper) is not in this round.
Measured: 0 of 463 Files: fields with backticked paths (520 fields in 182
plans across the marketplace repos) carry another path-like word.
Suite 2185 (2183/0/2).

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 7, operator decision 2026-10-08
(«grønt merke på låsen»): the stop guard blocked Stop three times while the
executor waited for the controller, with the step's test already green.
- test-lock.mjs green --cmd "<Verify>" runs the step's test command (same
allowlist + denylist as done-line) and records green_at only on exit 0;
pending clears it; a new lock starts without it.
- stop-test-lock lets a green-marked lock stop; the write guard still
refuses the locked test files.
- trekexecute: D1 marks green after a PASS; each fix round marks pending.

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).
