feat(brief): ceremony by size, one question round, logged and committed approvals
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.

# Voyage — Command flag reference
Per-command flag tables, imported from `CLAUDE.md` via pointer.
## /trekbrief modes
| Flag | Behavior |
|------|----------|
| _(default)_ | Question round sized by class (`small` / `bounded` / `architectural`), brief-review gate, approval → brief.md with research plan |
| `--quick` | Proposes `small` as the class (still said aloud, overridable, raised when the task proves bigger) → brief.md with research plan |
| `--gates {true\|false}` | (v3.4.0) Boolean autonomy-gate flag; present → gating on. Policy (`gates_mode`) detailed under `## Autonomy mode` in `docs/operations.md`. |
| `--profile <name>` | (v4.1.0) Model profile: `economy` / `balanced` / `premium` / `fable` / `<custom>`. Sets `phase_models` for the brief phase. See `## Profile system` in `docs/operations.md`. |
| `--approve <project-dir \| brief-file>` | (veikart steg 1) No interview: show the existing brief's `## Intent` + `## Goal` verbatim, ask the operator to approve, and on "Approve" stamp `intent_approved_hash` + `intent_approved_at`, emit `brief-approved`, and write the trekbrief stats record (`"mode": "approve"`). The remedy `/trekplan` names when it halts on `BRIEF_INTENT_NOT_APPROVED` / `BRIEF_INTENT_APPROVAL_STALE`. |
Always interactive. Phase 3 puts the task in a size class (`ceremony:`, K1; heaviest in doubt, said aloud, overridable, only moved up) and asks one round of questions within the class budget (`small` 4, `bounded` 8, `architectural` 12 per round), recommendation first, facts looked up instead of asked, a visible Deferred list; it also asks where the brief is stored (`artifact_store: git | local`). Phase 4 runs a `brief-reviewer` stop-gate with 1 / 2 / 3 review iterations by class. Phase 4h takes only an explicit "Approve" («høres bra ut» and an empty answer are refused by `lib/util/approval-log.mjs answer`), stamps the brief, appends the approval to the target repo's log (`approval-log.mjs append`, K2) and commits it (`lib/util/artifact-commit.mjs`: the log always, the brief when `git`). After that, asks the user to choose manual (print commands) or auto (Claude runs research + plan in foreground).
## /trekresearch modes
| Flag | Behavior |
|------|----------|
| _(default)_ | Interview + research (local + external) + synthesis + brief (foreground) |
| `--project <dir>` | Write brief to `{dir}/research/{NN}-{slug}.md` (auto-incremented) |
| `--quick` | Interview (short) + inline research (no agent swarm) |
| `--local` | Only codebase analysis agents (skip external research) |
| `--external` | Only external research agents (skip codebase analysis) |
| `--fg` | No-op alias (foreground is default since v2.4.0) |
| `--gates {true\|false}` | (v3.4.0) Boolean autonomy-gate flag; present → gating on. Policy (`gates_mode`) detailed under `## Autonomy mode` in `docs/operations.md`. |
| `--min-brief-version <ver>` | (S18) Warn — never block — if an attached `--project` brief declares a version below `<ver>` (e.g. `2.2`), i.e. sidesteps framing enforcement |
| `--profile <name>` | (v4.1.0) Model profile for the research phase. |
| `--engine {swarm\|deep-research}` | (deep-research-engine) Opt-in external-research engine; `deep-research` delegates the external phase to Claude Code's built-in `/deep-research` workflow, which only works on `2.1.154 <= CC < 2.1.218` — from **2.1.218** `/deep-research` is operator-invoked only (the Skill tool refuses with `disable-model-invocation`), so the engine always falls back to `swarm`. Never hard-fails. Default `swarm`. |
Flags combine: `--project <dir> --local`, `--external --quick`.
### Bounded conversation loop (Phase 4.5 + Phase 5) — env-vars
Dimension discovery and the multi-turn follow-up loop are **default-off** and
have no flag; they are environment-gated, because turning them on costs turns.
They run only at `effort: high` (resolved from the brief's `phase_signals`).
| Env-var | Default | Behavior |
|---------|---------|----------|
| `VOYAGE_STORM_ENABLED` | _(unset — default-off)_ | `=1` grants the Phase 5 loop a non-zero turn budget and is the second condition on Phase 4.5's skip-guard. Unset, `research-loop-cap.mjs` grants 0 turns and **both** phases are inert: doing nothing keeps the whole mechanism off. |
| `TREKRESEARCH_MAX_CONV_TURNS` | `3` | Max turns per under-illuminated dimension. Budget = this × `maxDimensions` (8, `settings.json:16`). Empty, non-numeric, zero, negative, `Infinity`, or any fraction that floors below `1` (`0.5`, `0.9`) fall back to `3` — never to unbounded, and never to `0`. A fraction at or above `1` floors (`2.7` → `2`). |
| `VOYAGE_DISABLE_CAP_HOOK` | _(unset)_ | `=1` disables `hooks/scripts/pre-agent-cap.mjs`, the `PreToolUse` enforcement of the turn budget. The cap primitive still applies; only the second gate is switched off. |
Adoption of the loop as a default is gated on a pre-registered measurement —
protocol, thresholds, and the exact commands in
[`docs/storm-measurement.md`](storm-measurement.md).
## /trekplan modes
| Flag | Behavior |
|------|----------|
| `--project <dir>` | **Required path A** — read `{dir}/brief.md`, auto-discover `{dir}/research/*.md`, write `{dir}/plan.md` |
| `--brief <path>` | **Required path B** — plan from a specific brief file; write to `.claude/plans/trekplan-{date}-{slug}.md` |
| `--research <brief> [brief2]` | Enrich with extra research briefs beyond what is in `{project_dir}/research/` |
| `--fg` | No-op alias (foreground is default since v2.4.0) |
| `--quick` | Plan directly (no agent swarm) |
| `--min-brief-version <ver>` | (S18) Warn — never block — if the brief declares a version below `<ver>` (e.g. `2.2`), i.e. sidesteps framing enforcement |
| `--export headless <plan>` | Legacy alias for `--decompose` — the only remaining export format (the `pr` / `issue` / `markdown` variants were removed; Claude reformats a plan ad-hoc on request) |
| `--decompose <plan>` | Split plan into self-contained session specs + `orders.md` (one starter line per session) |
| `--gates {true\|false}` | (v3.4.0) Boolean autonomy-gate flag; present → gating on. Policy (`gates_mode`) detailed under `## Autonomy mode` in `docs/operations.md`. |
| `--profile <name>` | (v4.1.0) Model profile for the plan phase (and others, since plan emits `profile:` to plan.md frontmatter). |
**Breaking change (v2.0):** one of `--brief` or `--project` is required. There is no interview inside `/trekplan`. The `--spec` flag has been removed — use `/trekbrief` to produce a brief instead.
**Approval gates (no flag turns them off).** Phase 1 halts unless the brief's intent marker is current (`intent-approval.mjs --check`) AND the target repo's approval log is intact and holds that intent (`approval-log.mjs verify --kind intent`; `broken`, `diverged`, `not-logged` or `mismatch` halt; remedy `/trekbrief --approve`). Phase 1 also reads `ceremony` (absent = `architectural`) and `artifact_store` (absent = `local`). Phase 11 asks for an explicit plan approval before any handoff, logs it bound to `plan.md`'s sha256 and commits it (the plan itself only when `artifact_store: git`); "execute" does not start on "Not yet".
If `{project_dir}/architecture/overview.md` exists (typically produced by an opt-in upstream architect plugin, not bundled), the plan command auto-discovers it and treats `cc_features_proposed` as priors. Missing file is fine — discovery is additive, not required.
## /trekexecute modes
| Flag | Behavior |
|------|----------|
| _(default)_ | Execute plan — auto-detects Execution Strategy for multi-session |
| `--project <dir>` | Read `{dir}/plan.md`, write `{dir}/progress.json` |
| `--resume` | Resume from last progress checkpoint |
| `--dry-run` | Validate plan structure without executing |
| `--validate` | Schema-only check — parse steps + manifests, report `READY \| FAIL`, no execution |
| `--step N` | Execute only step N |
| `--fg` | Force foreground — run all steps sequentially, ignore Execution Strategy |
| `--session N` | Execute only session N from plan's Execution Strategy |
| `--gates {true\|false}` | (v3.4.0) Boolean autonomy-gate flag; present → gating on. Policy (`gates_mode`) detailed under `## Autonomy mode` in `docs/operations.md`. |
| `--profile <name>` | (v4.1.0) Model profile for the execute phase. Inherited from plan.md frontmatter `profile:` if present. |
## /trekreview modes
| Flag | Behavior |
|------|----------|
| _(default)_ | Run brief-conformance + code-correctness reviewers in parallel, coordinator dedup + verdict, write `{project_dir}/review.md` |
| `--project <dir>` | **Required.** Path to trekplan project folder containing `brief.md`. Review is written to `{dir}/review.md` |
| `--since <ref>` | Override "before" SHA for the diff range. Validated via `git rev-parse --verify` |
| `--quick` | Skip brief-conformance reviewer; skip coordinator's reasonableness filter — fast correctness-only pass |
| `--validate` | Schema-only check on existing `{dir}/review.md`. No LLM calls |
| `--dry-run` | Print discovered scope + triage map; skip writes |
| `--fg` | No-op alias (foreground is default) |
| `--workflow` | (opt-in, NW2) Run Phase 5–6 on the bake-off-validated Workflow substrate (`scripts/trekreview-armB.workflow.mjs`) instead of the default prose path. Default stays prose; requires **Claude Code 2.1.154+** (raises the consumer floor — opt-in for portability). Fidelity-equivalent per `docs/T2-bakeoff-results.md` |
| `--profile <name>` | (v4.1.0) Model profile for the review phase. |
## /trekcontinue modes
| Flag | Behavior |
|------|----------|
| _(default)_ | Auto-discover active project's `.session-state.local.json` and resume |
| `<project-dir>` | Resume the next session of an explicit project directory |
| `--profile <name>` | (v4.1.0) Model profile for the resumed session. Inherited from the previous session's plan.md frontmatter when absent. |
The triage gate is deterministic — path-pattern classifier produces `{file → deep-review|summary-only|skip}`. Hard refuse-with-suggestion above 100 files / 100K diff tokens.
