feat: recursive self-improvement — operational learning + full skill wiring (v0.13.8.0) (#647)
* refactor: remove dead contributor mode, replace with operational self-improvement slot
Contributor mode never fired in 18 days of heavy use (required manual opt-in
via gstack-config, gated behind _CONTRIB=true, wrote disconnected markdown).
Removes: generateContributorMode(), _CONTRIB bash var, 2 E2E tests, touchfile
entry, doc references. Cleans up skip-lists in plan-ceo-review, autoplan,
review resolver, and document-release templates.
The operational self-improvement system (next commit) replaces this slot with
automatic learning capture that requires no opt-in.

* feat: operational self-improvement — every skill learns from failures
Adds universal operational learning capture to the preamble completion protocol.
At the end of every skill session, the agent reflects on CLI failures, wrong
approaches, and project quirks, logging them as type "operational" to the
learnings JSONL. Future sessions surface these automatically.
- generateCompletionStatus(ctx) now includes operational capture section
- Preamble bash shows top 3 learnings inline when count > 5
- New "operational" type in generateLearningsLog alongside pattern/pitfall/etc
- Updated unit tests + operational seed entry in learnings E2E

* feat: wire learnings into all insight-producing skills
Adds LEARNINGS_SEARCH and/or LEARNINGS_LOG to 10 skill templates that
produce reusable insights but were previously disconnected from the
learning system:
- office-hours, plan-ceo-review, plan-eng-review: add LOG (had SEARCH)
- plan-design-review: add both SEARCH + LOG (had neither)
- design-review, design-consultation, cso, qa, qa-only: add both
- retro: add SEARCH (had LOG)
13 skills now fully participate in the learning loop (read + write).
Every review, QA, investigation, and design session both consults prior
learnings and contributes new ones.

* test: add operational-learning E2E test (gate-tier)
Validates the write path: agent encounters a CLI failure, logs an
operational learning to JSONL via gstack-learnings-log. Replaces the
removed contributor-mode E2E test.
Setup: temp git repo, copy bin scripts, set GSTACK_HOME.
Prompt: simulated npm test failure needing --experimental-vm-modules.
Assert: learnings.jsonl exists with type=operational entry.

* fix: learnings-show E2E slug mismatch — seed at computed slug, not hardcoded
The test seeded learnings at projects/test-project/ but gstack-slug computes
the slug from basename(workDir) when no git remote exists. The agent's search
looked at the wrong path and found nothing.
Fix: compute slug the same way gstack-slug does (basename + sanitize) and
seed the learnings there.

feat: always-on adversarial review + scope drift + plan mode design tools (v0.14.3.0) (#694)
* feat: always-on adversarial review + scope drift resolver + cross-model tension format
Rewrite generateAdversarialStep() to remove LOC-based tier skipping. Every review
now runs both Claude adversarial subagent and Codex adversarial challenge. OLD_CFG
only gates Codex passes, not Claude. Add generateScopeDrift() shared resolver.
Fix cross-model tension AskUserQuestion to include RECOMMENDATION + Completeness.
* feat: add scope drift to /ship, extract from /review template
/ship gets {{SCOPE_DRIFT}} at Step 3.48 + PR body slot. /review replaces
hardcoded scope drift with {{SCOPE_DRIFT}} + {{PLAN_COMPLETION_AUDIT_REVIEW}}.
* feat: plan mode safe operations — browse, design, codex allowed in plan mode
Add preamble section declaring $B, $D, codex, and ~/.gstack/ writes as
plan-mode-safe. Unblocks design skills during planning.
* test: update adversarial + add scope drift assertions
Rename adversarial tests to reflect always-on behavior. Remove tier
threshold assertions. Add scope drift content assertions for both
/review and /ship generated SKILL.md files.
* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.14.3.0)

feat: /design-html skill — Pretext-native HTML from approved mockups (v0.14.0.0) (#653)
* feat: /design-html skill — Pretext-native HTML from approved mockups
New skill that takes approved design-shotgun mockups and generates
production-quality HTML with Pretext for computed text layout. Text
reflows on resize, heights adjust to content, zero hardcoded CSS.
Includes vendored Pretext bundle (30KB), smart API routing per design
type, AskUserQuestion refinement loop, framework detection, and
3-viewport verification screenshots.

* feat: integrate /design-html into design skill pipeline
- design-shotgun: Step 6 option B now chains to /design-html
- design-consultation: suggests /design-html after shipping DESIGN.md
(conditional on screen-level output, not tokens-only)
- plan-design-review: expanded chaining to include /design-shotgun
and /design-html alongside review skills

* test: update plan-design-review chaining test for design skills
plan-design-review now chains to /design-shotgun and /design-html
in addition to review skills. Update the assertion to match.
