feat: await support in browse js/eval + contributor mode v2 (#104)

* feat: support await in $B js and eval commands

Auto-wrap await expressions in async IIFE context so
$B js "await fetch(...)" works without SyntaxError.

- hasAwait() strips comments before detection
- js: expression wrapping (async()=>(expr))()
- eval: smart wrapping — single-line=expression, multi-line=block
- 6 new unit tests covering async, false-positive, and return semantics

* feat: redesign contributor mode — periodic reflection with 0-10 rating

Replace passive "report when things break" with active reflection:
- Rate gstack experience 0-10 at workflow step boundaries
- Historical calibration example (await bug) anchors the reporting bar
- "What would make this a 10" field focuses on actionable improvements
- Removed category lists in favor of judgment-based assessment

* test: add deterministic contributor mode preamble validation

40 new skill-validation tests (4 checks × 10 skills) verify:
- 0-10 rating scale present
- Calibration example present
- "What would make this a 10" field present
- Periodic reflection (not per-command)

Update existing E2E contributor eval for new report format.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.4.2)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: improve contributor mode + qa-quick E2E reliability

Contributor mode:
- Add "do not truncate" directive to template — agent was stopping
  after "My rating" without completing Steps/Raw output/What would
  make this a 10 sections
- Restore assertions for Steps to reproduce and Date footer

QA quick:
- Make test server URL prominent: top of prompt, explicit "already
  running" and "do NOT discover ports" instructions
- Bump session timeout 180s→240s and test timeout 240s→300s
- Set B= at top of prompt (was buried in prose)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: use flexible assertions for contributor mode E2E

Agent writes thorough reports with creative section names
("Repro Steps" vs "Steps to reproduce"). Match intent not formatting:
- /repro|steps to reproduce/ for reproduction steps
- /date.*2026/ for date footer presence

* docs: add E2E eval failure blame protocol

"Not related to our changes" is an extraordinary claim that requires
extraordinary proof. When evals fail during /ship:

1. Run the same eval on main — prove it fails there too
2. If it passes on main, it IS your change — trace the blame
3. If you can't verify, say "unverified" not "pre-existing"

Added to CLAUDE.md and as a comment in skill-e2e.test.ts.

* docs: update CONTRIBUTING.md and BROWSER.md for v0.4.2

CONTRIBUTING.md: update contributor mode description — now describes
periodic 0-10 reflection loop instead of passive friction detection.

BROWSER.md: add js/eval async documentation — await expressions are
auto-wrapped in async context, single-line eval returns values directly.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: restore v0.4.2 changelog entries lost during cherry-pick conflict

The base branch detection entries from main were dropped when resolving
the CHANGELOG conflict — should have merged both sets, not replaced.

fix: dynamic base branch detection across all SKILL templates (v0.3.10) (#81)

* feat: add {{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}} resolver to gen-skill-docs

DRY placeholder for dynamic base branch detection across PR-targeting
skills. Detects via gh pr view (existing PR base) → gh repo view
(repo default) → fallback to main.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: ship skill detects base branch instead of hardcoding main

Replaces ~14 hardcoded 'main' references with dynamic detection via
{{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}}. Fixes stacked branches and Conductor workspaces
targeting non-main branches. Adds --base <base> to gh pr create.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: review, qa, plan-ceo-review detect base branch dynamically

Same pattern as ship: replaces hardcoded 'main' with {{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}}.
Also cleans up qa bash-isms (REPORT_DIR variable, port chaining).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: retro detects default branch instead of hardcoding origin/main

Retro queries commit history (not PR targets), so uses simpler detection:
gh repo view defaultBranchRef. Replaces ~11 origin/main refs with
origin/<default>.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: add explicit cross-step references in gstack-upgrade template

Bash blocks are self-contained, but cross-block variable references
(INSTALL_DIR from Step 2) were implicit. Adds prose making them explicit.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs+test: SKILL authoring guidance + regression tests

Adds "Writing SKILL templates" section to CLAUDE.md explaining that
templates are prompts, not scripts. Adds validation test catching
hardcoded 'main' in git commands, and resolver content test.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: update ARCHITECTURE + CONTRIBUTING for new placeholders

Add {{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}} to ARCHITECTURE.md placeholder list.
Cross-reference CLAUDE.md template authoring guidance from CONTRIBUTING.md.

* fix: add missing blank line between resolver functions

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: add 3 E2E smoke tests for base branch detection

- /review: verifies Step 0 detection + git diff against detected base
- /ship: truncated dry-run (Steps 0-1 only, no push/PR), asserts no
  destructive actions
- /retro: verifies default branch detection for git log queries

Covers the {{BASE_BRANCH_DETECT}} resolver path (review), the ship
template's dual abort check, and retro's inline detection pattern.

feat: contributor mode, session awareness, recommendation format (#90)

* feat: contributor mode, session awareness, universal RECOMMENDATION format

- Rename {{UPDATE_CHECK}} → {{PREAMBLE}} across all 10 skill templates
- Add session tracking (touch ~/.gstack/sessions/$PPID, count active sessions)
- ELI16 mode when 3+ concurrent sessions detected (re-ground user on context)
- Contributor mode: auto-file field reports to ~/.gstack/contributor-logs/
- Universal AskUserQuestion format: context → question → RECOMMENDATION → options
- Update plan-ceo-review and plan-eng-review to reference preamble baseline
- Add vendored symlink awareness section to CLAUDE.md
- Rewrite CONTRIBUTING.md with contributor workflow and cross-project testing
- Add tests for contributor mode and session awareness in generated output
- Add E2E eval for contributor mode report filing

* feat: add Enum & Value Completeness to /review critical checklist

New CRITICAL review category that traces new enum values, status strings,
and type constants through every consumer outside the diff. Catches the
class of bugs where a new value is added but not handled in all switch/case
chains, allowlists, or frontend-backend contracts.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: rewrite v0.4.1 changelog to be user-facing and sell the features

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: add evals for RECOMMENDATION format, session awareness, and enum completeness

Free tests (Tier 1): RECOMMENDATION format + session awareness in all
preamble SKILL.md files, enum completeness checklist structure and CRITICAL
classification.

E2E eval: /review catches missed enum handlers when a new status value
is added but not handled in case/switch and notify methods.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: add E2E eval for session awareness ELI16 mode

Stubs _SESSIONS=4, gives agent a decision point on feature/add-payments
branch, verifies the output re-grounds the user with project, branch,
context, and RECOMMENDATION — the ELI16 mode behavior for 3+ sessions.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: contributor mode eval marked FAIL due to expected browse error

The test intentionally runs a nonexistent binary to trigger contributor
mode. The session runner's browse error detection catches "no such file
or directory...browse" and sets browseErrors, causing recordE2E to mark
passed=false. Override passed to check only exitReason since the browse
error is the expected scenario.

feat: QA restructure, browser ref staleness, eval efficiency metrics (v0.4.0) (#83)

* feat: browser ref staleness detection via async count() validation

resolveRef() now checks element count to detect stale refs after page
mutations (e.g. SPA navigation). RefEntry stores role+name metadata
for better diagnostics. 3 new snapshot tests for staleness detection.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: qa-only skill, qa fix loop, plan-to-QA artifact flow

Add /qa-only (report-only, Edit tool blocked), restructure /qa with
find-fix-verify cycle, add {{QA_METHODOLOGY}} DRY placeholder for
shared methodology. /plan-eng-review now writes test-plan artifacts
to ~/.gstack/projects/<slug>/ for QA consumption.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: eval efficiency metrics — turns, duration, commentary across all surfaces

Add generateCommentary() for natural-language delta interpretation,
per-test turns/duration in comparison and summary output, judgePassed
unit tests, 3 new E2E tests (qa-only, qa fix loop, plan artifact).

feat: smart update check with auto-upgrade, snooze backoff, config CLI (v0.3.9) (#62)

* feat: add bin/gstack-config CLI for reading/writing ~/.gstack/config.yaml

Simple get/set/list interface for persistent gstack configuration.
Used by update-check and upgrade skill for auto_upgrade and update_check settings.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: smart update check with 12h cache, snooze backoff, config disable

- Reduce cache TTL from 24h to 12h for faster update detection
- Add exponential snooze backoff: 24h → 48h → 1 week (resets on new version)
- Add update_check: false config option to disable checks entirely
- Clear snooze file on just-upgraded
- 14 new tests covering snooze levels, expiry, corruption, and config paths

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: upgrade skill with auto-upgrade, 4-option prompt, vendored sync

- Auto-upgrade mode via config or GSTACK_AUTO_UPGRADE=1 env var
- 4-option AskUserQuestion: upgrade once, always, not now, never
- Step 4.5: sync local vendored copy after upgrading primary install
- Snooze write with escalating backoff on "Not now"
- Update preamble text in gen-skill-docs for new upgrade flow
- Regenerate all SKILL.md files

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: simplify upgrade instructions, move auto-upgrade to completed

README now points to /gstack-upgrade instead of long paste commands.
Auto-upgrade TODO moved to Completed section (v0.3.8).

Merge pull request #55 from garrytan/v0.3.6-qa-upgrades

feat: E2E observability + eval infrastructure + all skills templated

feat: template-ify all skills + E2E tests for plan-ceo-review, plan-eng-review, retro

- Convert gstack-upgrade to SKILL.md.tmpl template system
- All 10 skills now use templates (consistent auto-generated headers)
- Add comprehensive template validation tests (22 tests):
  every skill has .tmpl, generated SKILL.md has header, valid frontmatter,
  --dry-run reports FRESH, no unresolved placeholders
- Add E2E tests for /plan-ceo-review, /plan-eng-review, /retro
- Mark /ship, /setup-browser-cookies, /gstack-upgrade as test.todo (destructive/interactive)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

fix: update check preamble exits 1 when up to date — convert all skills to .tmpl

The `[ -n "$_UPD" ] && echo "$_UPD"` line in 5 skills was missing `|| true`,
causing exit code 1 when the update check finds no update (empty $_UPD).

Fix: convert ship/, review/, plan-ceo-review/, plan-eng-review/, retro/ to
.tmpl templates using {{UPDATE_CHECK}} placeholder (same as browse/qa/etc).
All 9 skills now generated from templates — preamble changes propagate everywhere.

Also: regenerates qa/SKILL.md which had drifted from its template, adds 12 tests
validating the update check preamble exits 0 in all skills, removes completed TODO.

Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/main' into v0.3.6-qa-upgrades

# Conflicts:
#	test/skill-e2e.test.ts

fix: browse binary discovery broken for agents (v0.3.5) (#44)

* fix: replace find-browse with direct path in SKILL.md setup blocks

Agents were skipping the find-browse binary and guessing bin/browse
(wrong path). Now the setup block explicitly checks browse/dist/browse
with workspace-local priority, global fallback.

Also adds || true to update check to prevent misleading exit code 1.

Adds {{UPDATE_CHECK}} and {{BROWSE_SETUP}} template placeholders to
gen-skill-docs.ts so all skills share a single source of truth.

* refactor: convert qa/ and setup-browser-cookies/ to .tmpl templates

Replaces hardcoded update check and find-browse blocks with
{{UPDATE_CHECK}} and {{BROWSE_SETUP}} placeholders. Both skills
are now generated from templates via gen-skill-docs.

* test: add e2e and LLM eval tests for SKILL.md setup block

- 3 Agent SDK e2e tests: happy path, NEEDS_SETUP, non-git-repo
- LLM eval: setup block clarity + actionability >= 4
- New error pattern: 'no such file or directory.*browse'

These tests catch the exact failure mode where agents can't discover
the browse binary via SKILL.md instructions.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.3.5)

Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/main' into v0.3.5-qa-upgrades

fix: enrich SKILL.md docs to pass LLM evals, upgrade judge to Sonnet 4.6 (#43)

* fix: enrich command descriptions and snapshot flags for LLM eval quality

14 command descriptions enriched with specific arg formats, valid values,
error behavior, and return types. Fixed header usage from <name> <value>
to <name>:<value>. Added cookie usage syntax. Snapshot flags now show
long names, ref numbering, and output format examples.

* refactor: auto-generate server.ts help text from COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS

Replace hand-maintained help block with generateHelpText() that reads
from COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS and SNAPSHOT_FLAGS. Eliminates help text
drift from source of truth.

* test: add usage consistency and pipe guard tests

Usage consistency test cross-checks Usage: patterns in implementation
against COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS using structural skeleton comparison.
Pipe guard test ensures descriptions don't contain | which would break
markdown table rendering.

* chore: upgrade eval judge to Sonnet 4.6, update changelog

Switch LLM-as-judge evals from Haiku to Sonnet 4.6 for more stable,
nuanced scoring. Add changelog entry for all eval improvements.

feat: SKILL.md template system, 3-tier testing, DX tools (v0.3.3) (#41)

* refactor: extract command registry to commands.ts, add SNAPSHOT_FLAGS metadata

- NEW: browse/src/commands.ts — command sets + COMMAND_DESCRIPTIONS + load-time validation (zero side effects)
- server.ts imports from commands.ts instead of declaring sets inline
- snapshot.ts: SNAPSHOT_FLAGS array drives parseSnapshotArgs (metadata-driven, no duplication)
- All 186 existing tests pass

* feat: SKILL.md template system with auto-generated command references

- SKILL.md.tmpl + browse/SKILL.md.tmpl with {{COMMAND_REFERENCE}} and {{SNAPSHOT_FLAGS}} placeholders
- scripts/gen-skill-docs.ts generates SKILL.md from templates (supports --dry-run)
- Build pipeline runs gen:skill-docs before binary compilation
- Generated files have AUTO-GENERATED header, committed to git

* test: Tier 1 static validation — 34 tests for SKILL.md command correctness

- test/helpers/skill-parser.ts: extracts $B commands from code blocks, validates against registry
- test/skill-parser.test.ts: 13 parser/validator unit tests
- test/skill-validation.test.ts: 13 tests validating all SKILL.md files + registry consistency
- test/gen-skill-docs.test.ts: 8 generator tests (categories, sorting, freshness)

* feat: DX tools (skill:check, dev:skill) + Tier 2 E2E test scaffolding

- scripts/skill-check.ts: health summary for all SKILL.md files (commands, templates, freshness)
- scripts/dev-skill.ts: watch mode for template development
- test/helpers/session-runner.ts: Agent SDK wrapper for E2E skill tests
- test/skill-e2e.test.ts: 2 E2E tests + 3 stubs (auto-skip inside Claude Code sessions)
- E2E tests must run from plain terminal: SKILL_E2E=1 bun test test/skill-e2e.test.ts

* ci: SKILL.md freshness check on push/PR + TODO updates

- .github/workflows/skill-docs.yml: fails if generated SKILL.md files are stale
- TODO.md: add E2E cost tracking and model pinning to future ideas

* fix: restore rich descriptions lost in auto-generation

- Snapshot flags: add back value hints (-d <N>, -s <sel>, -o <path>)
- Snapshot flags: restore parenthetical context (@e refs, @c refs, etc.)
- Commands: is → includes valid states enum
- Commands: console → notes --errors filter behavior
- Commands: press → lists common keys (Enter, Tab, Escape)
- Commands: cookie-import-browser → describes picker UI
- Commands: dialog-accept → specifies alert/confirm/prompt
- Tips: restore → arrow (was downgraded to ->)

* test: quality evals for generated SKILL.md descriptions

Catches the exact regressions we shipped and caught in review:
- Snapshot flags must include value hints (-d <N>, -s <sel>, -o <path>)
- is command must list all valid states (visible/hidden/enabled/...)
- press command must list example keys (Enter, Tab, Escape)
- console command must describe --errors behavior
- Snapshot -i must mention @e refs, -C must mention @c refs
- All descriptions must be >= 8 chars (no empty stubs)
- Tips section must use → not ->

* feat: LLM-as-judge evals for SKILL.md documentation quality

4 eval tests using Anthropic API (claude-haiku, ~$0.01-0.03/run):
- Command reference table: clarity/completeness/actionability >= 4/5
- Snapshot flags section: same thresholds
- browse/SKILL.md overall quality
- Regression: generated version must score >= hand-maintained baseline

Requires ANTHROPIC_API_KEY. Auto-skips without it.
Run: bun run test:eval (or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-... bun test test/skill-llm-eval.test.ts)
