feat: /plan-devex-review + /devex-review — DX review skills (v0.15.3.0) (#784)

* feat: add DX framework resolver for shared principles and scoring rubric

New {{DX_FRAMEWORK}} resolver provides compact (~150 lines) shared content
for /plan-devex-review and /devex-review: Addy Osmani's 8 DX principles,
7 characteristics table, 10 cognitive patterns, scoring rubric, and TTHW
benchmarks. Hall of Fame examples loaded on-demand per pass to avoid bloat.

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

* feat: add DX Review row to review dashboard

Adds plan-devex-review and devex-review schema entries to the review
dashboard resolver and placeholder table in the preamble. All existing
SKILL.md files regenerated to include the new DX Review row.

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

* feat: /plan-devex-review skill — DX plan review with Osmani framework

Plan-stage developer experience review. Rates 8 DX dimensions 0-10:
getting started, API/CLI/SDK design, error messages, docs, upgrade path,
dev environment, community, and DX measurement. Includes developer empathy
simulation, auto-detect product type with applicability gate, DX scorecard
with trend tracking, and a conditional Claude Code Skill DX checklist.
Hall of Fame examples loaded on-demand per pass from dx-hall-of-fame.md.

* feat: /devex-review skill — live DX audit with browse

Live-system developer experience audit using browse tool. Tests all 8
dimensions aligned with /plan-devex-review for boomerang comparison
(plan said 3 min TTHW, reality says 8). Each dimension marked TESTED,
INFERRED, or N/A with evidence. Scope-aware: declares what browse can
and cannot test, falls back to file artifacts for untestable dimensions.

fix: setup runs pending migrations so git pull + ./setup works (#774)

* fix: setup runs pending migrations so git pull + ./setup works

Previously, version migrations only ran during /gstack-upgrade (Step 4.75).
Users who updated via git pull + ./setup never got migrations applied,
leaving stale skill directory structures in place. Now setup tracks the
last-run version in ~/.gstack/.last-setup-version and runs any pending
migrations automatically. Idempotent — safe to run multiple times.

feat: voice-friendly skill triggers for AquaVoice (v0.14.6.0) (#732)

* feat: voice-friendly skill triggers for speech-to-text input

Add voice-triggers YAML field to 10 SKILL.md.tmpl files with natural-language
aliases (e.g. "see-so" for /cso, "tech review" for /plan-eng-review).
gen-skill-docs preprocesses voice triggers before transformFrontmatter,
folding them into the description and stripping the field from output.
Includes unit tests, README voice input section, and CONTRIBUTING.md update.

fix: top-level skill dirs so Claude discovers unprefixed names (#761)

* fix: top-level skill dirs so Claude discovers unprefixed names

Replace directory symlinks (gstack/qa → qa) with real directories
containing a SKILL.md symlink. Claude Code auto-prefixes skills nested
under a parent dir symlink, so /plan-ceo-review became "Unknown skill"
even with skill_prefix=false. Real dirs fix this.

Also syncs package.json version to match VERSION file and updates
test assertions to match the new mkdir + ln approach.

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

* docs: update symlink references to new top-level directory pattern

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

* test: regression tests for top-level skill directory structure

Verifies the invariant that setup/relink creates real directories (not
symlinks) at the top level, with SKILL.md symlinks inside. This prevents
Claude Code from auto-prefixing skills with gstack- when using --no-prefix.

Tests added:
- unprefixed skills must be real dirs with SKILL.md symlinks
- prefixed skills must also be real dirs with SKILL.md symlinks
- old directory symlinks get upgraded to real directories
- cleanup functions handle both old symlinks and new dir pattern
- link function removes old directory symlinks before mkdir

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

* test: namespace isolation tests for first install + mode switching

Verifies the core invariant: when you pick a prefix mode, ONLY that
mode's entries exist. Zero pollution from the other mode.

- first install --no-prefix: only flat names, zero gstack-* leaks
- first install --prefix: only gstack-* names, zero flat leaks
- non-TTY defaults to flat names
- switching prefix→no-prefix removes ALL gstack-* entries
- switching no-prefix→prefix removes ALL flat entries

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

* feat: upgrade migration system — versioned fix scripts for broken state

Adds gstack-upgrade/migrations/ directory with version-keyed bash scripts
that run automatically during /gstack-upgrade (Step 4.75, after ./setup).
Each script is idempotent and handles state fixes that setup alone can't
cover. First migration: v0.15.2.0.sh runs gstack-relink to fix stale
directory symlinks from pre-v0.15.2.0 installs.

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

* test: migration script validation + v0.15.2.0 end-to-end fix test

Tests that migration scripts are executable, parse without syntax errors,
follow the v{VERSION}.sh naming convention, and that v0.15.2.0 actually
fixes stale directory symlinks by converting them to real directories.

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

* docs: upgrade migration guide in CONTRIBUTING.md + CLAUDE.md pointer

CONTRIBUTING.md: new "Upgrade migrations" section documenting when and
how to add migration scripts for broken on-disk state.

CLAUDE.md: added note under vendored symlink awareness pointing to
CONTRIBUTING.md's migration section when worried about broken installs.

feat: Session Intelligence Layer — /checkpoint + /health + context recovery (v0.15.0.0) (#733)

* feat: session timeline binaries (gstack-timeline-log + gstack-timeline-read)

New binaries for the Session Intelligence Layer. gstack-timeline-log appends
JSONL events to ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/timeline.jsonl. gstack-timeline-read
reads, filters, and formats timeline data for /retro consumption.

Timeline is local-only project intelligence, never sent anywhere. Always-on
regardless of telemetry setting.

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

* feat: preamble context recovery + timeline events + predictive suggestions

Layers 1-3 of the Session Intelligence Layer:
- Timeline start/complete events injected into every skill via preamble
- Context recovery (tier 2+): lists recent CEO plans, checkpoints, reviews
- Cross-session injection: LAST_SESSION and LATEST_CHECKPOINT for branch
- Predictive skill suggestion from recent timeline patterns
- Welcome back message synthesis
- Routing rules for /checkpoint and /health

Timeline writes are NOT gated by telemetry (local project intelligence).

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

* feat: /checkpoint + /health skills (Layers 4-5)

/checkpoint: save/resume/list working state snapshots. Supports cross-branch
listing for Conductor workspace handoff. Session duration tracking.

/health: code quality scorekeeper. Wraps project tools (tsc, biome, knip,
shellcheck, tests), computes composite 0-10 score, tracks trends over time.
Auto-detects tools or reads from CLAUDE.md ## Health Stack.

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

* chore: regenerate SKILL.md files + add timeline tests

9 timeline tests (all passing) mirroring learnings.test.ts pattern.
All 34 SKILL.md files regenerated with new preamble (context recovery,
timeline events, routing rules for /checkpoint and /health).

* docs: update self-learning roadmap post-Session Intelligence

R1-R3 marked shipped with actual versions. R4 becomes Adaptive Ceremony
(trust as separate policy engine, scope-aware, gradual degradation). R5
becomes /autoship (resumable state machine, not linear chain). R6-R7
unbundled from old R5. Added State Systems reference, Risk Register
(Codex-reviewed), and validation metrics for R4.

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

* test: E2E tests for Session Intelligence (timeline, recovery, checkpoint)

3 gate-tier E2E tests:
- timeline-event-flow: binary data flow round-trip (no LLM)
- context-recovery-artifacts: seeded artifacts appear in preamble
- checkpoint-save-resume: checkpoint file created with YAML frontmatter

Also fixes package.json version sync (0.14.6.0 → 0.15.0.0).

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.

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

* 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

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

* 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.

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

* 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.

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

* 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.

fix: ship idempotency + skill prefix name patching (v0.14.3.0) (#693)

* fix: add idempotency guards to /ship Steps 4, 7, 8 (#649)

If git push succeeds but gh pr create fails, re-running /ship would
double-bump VERSION and duplicate CHANGELOG entries. Now:
- Step 4: check if VERSION already differs from base branch
- Step 7: fetch only the specific branch, skip push if already up to date
- Step 8: if PR exists, update body via gh pr edit instead of creating duplicate

No CHANGELOG guard needed — Step 5 is already idempotent by design
("replace existing entries with one unified entry").

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

* fix: patch name: in SKILL.md frontmatter for prefix mode (#620, #578)

./setup --prefix creates gstack-* symlinks but SKILL.md still says
name: qa, so Claude Code ignores the prefix. Now:
- New bin/gstack-patch-names shared helper patches name: field via sed
- setup calls it after link_claude_skill_dirs
- gstack-relink calls it after symlink loop
- gen-skill-docs.ts prints warning when skill_prefix is true

Edge cases: gstack-upgrade not double-prefixed, root gstack skill
never prefixed, prefix removal restores original names, SKILL.md
without frontmatter is a safe no-op.

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

* test: add name patching + ship idempotency tests (#620, #649)

- 4 unit tests for name: patching in relink.test.ts (prefix on/off,
  gstack-upgrade not double-prefixed, no-frontmatter no-op)
- 2 tests for gen-skill-docs prefix warning
- 1 E2E test for ship idempotency (periodic tier)
- Updated setupMockInstall to write SKILL.md with proper frontmatter
- Added ship-idempotency touchfiles + tier classification

* fix: PR idempotency checks open state, dedupe touchfiles, sync package.json

- Step 8 PR guard now checks state==OPEN so closed PRs don't prevent
  new PR creation (adversarial review finding)
- Remove duplicate ship-idempotency entry in E2E_TOUCHFILES
- Sync package.json version to 0.14.3.0

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

* fix: patch name: before creating symlinks to fix --no-prefix ordering bug

gstack-patch-names must run BEFORE link_claude_skill_dirs so symlink
names reflect the correct (patched) name: values. Previously, switching
from --prefix to --no-prefix would read stale gstack-* names from
SKILL.md and create wrong symlinks. (Codex adversarial finding)

feat: Review Army — parallel specialist reviewers for /review (v0.14.3.0) (#692)

* feat: extend gstack-diff-scope with SCOPE_MIGRATIONS, SCOPE_API, SCOPE_AUTH

Three new scope signals for Review Army specialist activation:
- SCOPE_MIGRATIONS: db/migrate/, prisma/migrations/, alembic/, *.sql
- SCOPE_API: *controller*, *route*, *endpoint*, *.graphql, openapi.*
- SCOPE_AUTH: *auth*, *session*, *jwt*, *oauth*, *permission*, *role*

* feat: add 7 specialist checklist files for Review Army

- testing.md (always-on): coverage gaps, flaky patterns, security enforcement
- maintainability.md (always-on): dead code, DRY, stale comments
- security.md (conditional): OWASP deep analysis, auth bypass, injection
- performance.md (conditional): N+1 queries, bundle impact, complexity
- data-migration.md (conditional): reversibility, lock duration, backfill
- api-contract.md (conditional): breaking changes, versioning, error format
- red-team.md (conditional): adversarial analysis, cross-cutting concerns

All use standard header with JSON output schema and NO FINDINGS fallback.

* feat: Review Army resolver — parallel specialist dispatch + merge

New resolver in review-army.ts generates template prose for:
- Stack detection and specialist selection
- Parallel Agent tool dispatch with learning-informed prompts
- JSON finding collection, fingerprint dedup, consensus highlighting
- PR quality score computation
- Red Team conditional dispatch

Registered as REVIEW_ARMY in resolvers/index.ts.

* refactor: restructure /review template for Review Army

- Replace Steps 4-4.75 with CRITICAL pass + {{REVIEW_ARMY}}
- Remove {{DESIGN_REVIEW_LITE}} and {{TEST_COVERAGE_AUDIT_REVIEW}}
  (subsumed into Design and Testing specialists respectively)
- Extract specialist-covered categories from checklist.md
- Keep CRITICAL + uncovered INFORMATIONAL in main agent pass

* test: Review Army — 14 diff-scope tests + 7 E2E tests

- test/diff-scope.test.ts: 14 tests for all 9 scope signals
- test/skill-e2e-review-army.test.ts: 7 E2E tests
  Gate: migration safety, N+1 detection, delivery audit,
        quality score, JSON findings
  Periodic: red team, consensus
- Updated gen-skill-docs tests for new review structure
- Added touchfile entries and tier classifications

* docs: update SELF_LEARNING_V0.md with Release 2 status + Release 2.5

Mark Release 2 (Review Army) as in-progress. Add Release 2.5 for
deferred expansions (E1 adaptive gating, E3 test stubs, E5 cross-review
dedup, E7 specialist tracking).

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

* feat: CDP inspector module — persistent sessions, CSS cascade, style modification

New browse/src/cdp-inspector.ts with full CDP inspection engine:
- inspectElement() via CSS.getMatchedStylesForNode + DOM.getBoxModel
- modifyStyle() via CSS.setStyleTexts with headless page.evaluate fallback
- Persistent CDP session lifecycle (create, reuse, detach on nav, re-create)
- Specificity sorting, overridden property detection, UA rule filtering
- Modification history with undo support
- formatInspectorResult() for CLI output

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

* feat: browse server inspector endpoints + inspect/style/cleanup/prettyscreenshot CLI

Server endpoints: POST /inspector/pick, GET /inspector, POST /inspector/apply,
POST /inspector/reset, GET /inspector/history, GET /inspector/events (SSE).
CLI commands: inspect (CDP cascade), style (live CSS mod), cleanup (page clutter
removal), prettyscreenshot (clean screenshot pipeline).

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

* feat: sidebar CSS inspector — element picker, box model, rule cascade, quick edit

Extension changes for the visual CSS inspector:
- inspector.js: element picker with hover highlight, CSS selector generation,
  basic mode fallback (getComputedStyle + CSSOM), page alteration handlers
- inspector.css: picker overlay styles (blue highlight + tooltip)
- background.js: inspector message routing (picker <-> server <-> sidepanel)
- sidepanel: Inspector tab with box model viz (gstack palette), matched rules
  with specificity badges, computed styles, click-to-edit quick edit,
  Send to Agent/Code button, empty/loading/error states

browser-manager.ts changes:
- context.on('page') listener: automatically tracks tabs opened by the user
  (Cmd+T, right-click open in new tab, window.open). Previously only
  programmatic newTab() was tracked, so user tabs were invisible.
- page.on('close') handler in wirePageEvents: removes closed tabs from the
  pages map and switches activeTabId to the last remaining tab.
- syncActiveTabByUrl: match Chrome extension's active tab URL to the correct
  Playwright page for accurate tab identity.

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

* feat: per-tab agent isolation via BROWSE_TAB environment variable

Prevents parallel sidebar agents from interfering with each other's tab context.

Three-layer fix:
- sidebar-agent.ts: passes BROWSE_TAB=<tabId> env var to each claude process,
  per-tab processing set allows concurrent agents across tabs
- cli.ts: reads process.env.BROWSE_TAB and includes tabId in command request body
- server.ts: handleCommand() temporarily switches activeTabId when tabId is present,
  restores after command completes (safe: Bun event loop is single-threaded)

Also: per-tab agent state (TabAgentState map), per-tab message queuing,
per-tab chat buffers, verbose streaming narration, stop button endpoint.

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

* feat: sidebar per-tab chat context, tab bar sync, stop button, UX polish

Extension changes:
- sidepanel.js: per-tab chat history (tabChatHistories map), switchChatTab()
  swaps entire chat view, browserTabActivated handler for instant tab sync,
  stop button wired to /sidebar-agent/stop, pollTabs renders tab bar
- sidepanel.html: updated banner text ("Browser co-pilot"), stop button markup,
  input placeholder "Ask about this page..."
- sidepanel.css: tab bar styles, stop button styles, loading state fixes
- background.js: chrome.tabs.onActivated sends browserTabActivated to sidepanel
  with tab URL for instant tab switch detection

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

* test: per-tab isolation, BROWSE_TAB pinning, tab tracking, sidebar UX

sidebar-agent.test.ts (new tests):
- BROWSE_TAB env var passed to claude process
- CLI reads BROWSE_TAB and sends tabId in body
- handleCommand accepts tabId, saves/restores activeTabId
- Tab pinning only activates when tabId provided
- Per-tab agent state, queue, concurrency
- processingTabs set for parallel agents

sidebar-ux.test.ts (new tests):
- context.on('page') tracks user-created tabs
- page.on('close') removes tabs from pages map
- Tab isolation uses BROWSE_TAB not system prompt hack
- Per-tab chat context in sidepanel
- Tab bar rendering, stop button, banner text

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

* fix: resolve merge conflicts — keep security defenses + per-tab isolation

Merged main's security improvements (XML escaping, prompt injection defense,
allowed commands whitelist, --model opus, Write tool, stderr capture) with
our branch's per-tab isolation (BROWSE_TAB env var, processingTabs set,
no --resume). Updated test expectations for expanded system prompt.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.13.9.0)

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

* fix: add inspector message types to background.js allowlist

Pre-existing bug found by Codex: ALLOWED_TYPES in background.js was missing
all inspector message types (startInspector, stopInspector, elementPicked,
pickerCancelled, applyStyle, toggleClass, injectCSS, resetAll, inspectResult).
Messages were silently rejected, making the inspector broken on ALL pages.

Also: separate executeScript and insertCSS into individual try blocks in
injectInspector(), store inspectorMode for routing, and add content.js
fallback when script injection fails (CSP, chrome:// pages).

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

* feat: basic element picker in content.js for CSP-restricted pages

When inspector.js can't be injected (CSP, chrome:// pages), content.js
provides a basic picker using getComputedStyle + CSSOM:
- startBasicPicker/stopBasicPicker message handlers
- captureBasicData() with ~30 key CSS properties, box model, matched rules
- Hover highlight with outline save/restore (never leaves artifacts)
- Click uses e.target directly (no re-querying by selector)
- Sends inspectResult with mode:'basic' for sidebar rendering
- Escape key cancels picker and restores outlines

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

* feat: cleanup + screenshot buttons in sidebar inspector toolbar

Two action buttons in the inspector toolbar:
- Cleanup (🧹): POSTs cleanup --all to server, shows spinner, chat
  notification on success, resets inspector state (element may be removed)
- Screenshot (📸): POSTs screenshot to server, shows spinner, chat
  notification with saved file path

Shared infrastructure:
- .inspector-action-btn CSS with loading spinner via ::after pseudo-element
- chat-notification type in addChatEntry() for system messages
- package.json version bump to 0.13.9.0

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

* test: inspector allowlist, CSP fallback, cleanup/screenshot buttons

16 new tests in sidebar-ux.test.ts:
- Inspector message allowlist includes all inspector types
- content.js basic picker (startBasicPicker, captureBasicData, CSSOM,
  outline save/restore, inspectResult with mode basic, Escape cleanup)
- background.js CSP fallback (separate try blocks, inspectorMode, fallback)
- Cleanup button (POST /command, inspector reset after success)
- Screenshot button (POST /command, notification rendering)
- Chat notification type and CSS styles

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

* docs: update project documentation for v0.13.9.0

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

* feat: cleanup + screenshot buttons in chat toolbar (not just inspector)

Quick actions toolbar (🧹 Cleanup, 📸 Screenshot) now appears above the chat
input, always visible. Both inspector and chat buttons share runCleanup() and
runScreenshot() helper functions. Clicking either set shows loading state on
both simultaneously.

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

* test: chat toolbar buttons, shared helpers, quick-action-btn styles

Tests that chat toolbar exists (chat-cleanup-btn, chat-screenshot-btn,
quick-actions container), CSS styles (.quick-action-btn, .quick-action-btn.loading),
shared runCleanup/runScreenshot helper functions, and cleanup inspector reset.

* feat: aggressive cleanup heuristics — overlays, scroll unlock, blur removal

Massively expanded CLEANUP_SELECTORS with patterns from uBlock Origin and
Readability.js research:
- ads: 30+ selectors (Google, Amazon, Outbrain, Taboola, Criteo, etc.)
- cookies: OneTrust, Cookiebot, TrustArc, Quantcast + generic patterns
- overlays (NEW): paywalls, newsletter popups, interstitials, push prompts,
  app download banners, survey modals
- social: follow prompts, share tools
- Cleanup now defaults to --all when no args (sidebar button fix)
- Uses !important on all display:none (overrides inline styles)
- Unlocks body/html scroll (overflow:hidden from modal lockout)
- Removes blur/filter effects (paywall content blur)
- Removes max-height truncation (article teaser truncation)
- Collapses empty ad placeholder whitespace (empty divs after ad removal)
- Skips gstack-ctrl indicator in sticky removal

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

* fix: disable action buttons when disconnected, no error spam

- setActionButtonsEnabled() toggles .disabled class on all cleanup/screenshot
  buttons (both chat toolbar and inspector toolbar)
- Called with false in updateConnection when server URL is null
- Called with true when connection established
- runCleanup/runScreenshot silently return when disconnected instead of
  showing 'Not connected' error notifications
- CSS .disabled style: pointer-events:none, opacity:0.3, cursor:not-allowed

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

* test: cleanup heuristics, button disabled state, overlay selectors

17 new tests:
- cleanup defaults to --all on empty args
- CLEANUP_SELECTORS overlays category (paywall, newsletter, interstitial)
- Major ad networks in selectors (doubleclick, taboola, criteo, etc.)
- Major consent frameworks (OneTrust, Cookiebot, TrustArc, Quantcast)
- !important override for inline styles
- Scroll unlock (body overflow:hidden)
- Blur removal (paywall content blur)
- Article truncation removal (max-height)
- Empty placeholder collapse
- gstack-ctrl indicator skip in sticky cleanup
- setActionButtonsEnabled function
- Buttons disabled when disconnected
- No error spam from cleanup/screenshot when disconnected
- CSS disabled styles for action buttons

* feat: LLM-based page cleanup — agent analyzes page semantically

Instead of brittle CSS selectors, the cleanup button now sends a prompt to
the sidebar agent (which IS an LLM). The agent:
1. Runs deterministic $B cleanup --all as a quick first pass
2. Takes a snapshot to see what's left
3. Analyzes the page semantically to identify remaining clutter
4. Removes elements intelligently, preserving site branding

This means cleanup works correctly on any site without site-specific selectors.
The LLM understands that "Your Daily Puzzles" is clutter, "ADVERTISEMENT" is
junk, but the SF Chronicle masthead should stay.

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

* feat: aggressive cleanup heuristics + preserve top nav bar

Deterministic cleanup improvements (used as first pass before LLM analysis):
- New 'clutter' category: audio players, podcast widgets, sidebar puzzles/games,
  recirculation widgets (taboola, outbrain, nativo), cross-promotion banners
- Text-content detection: removes "ADVERTISEMENT", "Article continues below",
  "Sponsored", "Paid content" labels and their parent wrappers
- Sticky fix: preserves the topmost full-width element near viewport top (site
  nav bar) instead of hiding all sticky/fixed elements. Sorts by vertical
  position, preserves the first one that spans >80% viewport width.

Tests: clutter category, ad label removal, nav bar preservation logic.

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

* test: LLM-based cleanup architecture, deterministic heuristics, sticky nav

22 new tests covering:
- Cleanup button uses /sidebar-command (agent) not /command (deterministic)
- Cleanup prompt includes deterministic first pass + agent snapshot analysis
- Cleanup prompt lists specific clutter categories for agent guidance
- Cleanup prompt preserves site identity (masthead, headline, body, byline)
- Cleanup prompt instructs scroll unlock and $B eval removal
- Loading state management (async agent, setTimeout)
- Deterministic clutter: audio/podcast, games/puzzles, recirculation
- Ad label text patterns (ADVERTISEMENT, Sponsored, Article continues)
- Ad label parent wrapper hiding for small containers
- Sticky nav preservation (sort by position, first full-width near top)

* fix: prevent repeat chat message rendering on reconnect/replay

Root cause: server persists chat to disk (chat.jsonl) and replays on restart.
Client had no dedup, so every reconnect re-rendered the entire history.
Messages from an old HN session would repeat endlessly on the SF Chronicle tab.

Fix: renderedEntryIds Set tracks which entry IDs have been rendered. addChatEntry
skips entries already in the set. Entries without an id (local notifications)
bypass the check. Clear chat resets the set.

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

* fix: agent stops when done, no focus stealing, opus for prompt injection safety

Three fixes for sidebar agent UX:
- System prompt: "Be CONCISE. STOP as soon as the task is done. Do NOT keep
  exploring or doing bonus work." Prevents agent from endlessly taking
  screenshots and highlighting elements after answering the question.
- switchTab(id, opts): new bringToFront option. Internal tab pinning
  (BROWSE_TAB) uses bringToFront: false so agent commands never steal
  window focus from the user's active app.
- Keep opus model (not sonnet) for prompt injection resistance on untrusted
  web pages. Remove Write from allowedTools (agent only needs Bash for $B).

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

* test: agent conciseness, focus stealing, opus model, switchTab opts

Tests for the three UX fixes:
- System prompt contains STOP/CONCISE/Do NOT keep exploring
- sidebar agent uses opus (not sonnet) for prompt injection resistance
- switchTab has bringToFront option, defaults to true (opt-out)
- handleCommand tab pinning uses bringToFront: false (no focus steal)
- Updated stale tests: switchTab signature, allowedTools excludes Write,
  narration -> conciseness, tab pinning restore calls

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

* test: sidebar CSS interaction E2E — HN comment highlight round-trip

New E2E test (periodic tier, ~$2/run) that exercises the full sidebar
agent pipeline with CSS interaction:
1. Agent navigates to Hacker News
2. Clicks into the top story's comments
3. Reads comments and identifies the most insightful one
4. Highlights it with a 4px solid orange outline via style injection

Tests: navigation, snapshot, text reading, LLM judgment, CSS modification.
Requires real browser + real Claude (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY).

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

* fix: sidebar CSS E2E test — correct idle timeout (ms not s), pipe stdio

Root cause of test failure: BROWSE_IDLE_TIMEOUT is in milliseconds, not
seconds. '600' = 0.6 seconds, server died immediately after health check.
Fixed to '600000' (10 minutes).

Also: use 'pipe' stdio instead of file descriptors (closing fds kills child
on macOS/bun), catch ConnectionRefused on poll retry, 4 min poll timeout
for the multi-step opus task.

Test passes: agent navigates to HN, reads comments, identifies most
insightful one, highlights it with orange CSS, stops. 114s, $0.00.

fix: force comparison board as default variant chooser (v0.14.1.0) (#658)

* fix: force comparison board as default variant chooser

The comparison board ($D compare --serve) was being skipped in favor of
showing variants inline + AskUserQuestion "which do you prefer?" — a
degraded experience missing rating controls, comments, and remix buttons.

Changes:
- Replace "show inline" instruction with "do NOT show inline, proceed to
  comparison board" in plan-design-review/SKILL.md.tmpl
- Add CRITICAL RULE: never use AskUserQuestion as the variant chooser
- Change DESIGN_SHOTGUN_LOOP resolver to AskUserQuestion-first wait with
  polling fallback (affects all 3 consumer skills)
- Fix board URL from /design-board.html (404) to / (correct)
- Improve serve-failure fallback to show variants inline via Read tool

* 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.

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

* 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

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

feat: composable skills — INVOKE_SKILL resolver + factoring infrastructure (v0.13.7.0) (#644)

* feat: add parameterized resolver support to gen-skill-docs

Extend the placeholder regex from {{WORD}} to {{WORD:arg1:arg2}},
enabling parameterized resolvers like {{INVOKE_SKILL:plan-ceo-review}}.

- Widen ResolverFn type to accept optional args?: string[]
- Update RESOLVERS record to use ResolverFn type
- Both replacement and unresolved-check regexes updated
- Fully backward compatible: existing {{WORD}} patterns unchanged

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

* feat: add INVOKE_SKILL resolver for composable skill loading

New composition.ts resolver module that emits prose instructing Claude
to read another skill's SKILL.md and follow it, skipping preamble
sections. Supports optional skip= parameter for additional sections.

Usage: {{INVOKE_SKILL:plan-ceo-review}} or
       {{INVOKE_SKILL:plan-ceo-review:skip=Outside Voice}}

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

* feat: use frontmatter name: for skill symlinks and Codex paths

Patch all 3 name-derivation paths to read name: from SKILL.md
frontmatter instead of relying solely on directory basenames.
This enables directory names that differ from invocation names
(e.g., run-tests/ directory with name: test).

- setup: link_claude_skill_dirs reads name: via grep, falls back to basename
- gen-skill-docs.ts: codexSkillName uses frontmatter name for Codex output paths
- gen-skill-docs.ts: moved frontmatter extraction before Codex path logic

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

* feat: extract CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW resolver from /ship

Move changelog generation logic into a reusable resolver. The resolver
is changelog-only (no version bump per Codex review recommendation).
Adds voice rules inline. /ship Step 5 now uses {{CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW}}.

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

* refactor: use INVOKE_SKILL resolver for plan-ceo-review office-hours fallback

Replace inline skill loading prose (read file, skip sections) with
{{INVOKE_SKILL:office-hours}} in the mid-session detection path.
The BENEFITS_FROM prerequisite offer is unchanged (separate use case).

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

* refactor: BENEFITS_FROM resolver delegates to INVOKE_SKILL

Eliminate duplicated skip-list logic by having generateBenefitsFrom
call generateInvokeSkill internally. The wrapper (AskUserQuestion,
design doc re-check) stays in BENEFITS_FROM. The loading instructions
(read file, skip sections, error handling) come from INVOKE_SKILL.

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

* test: add resolver tests for INVOKE_SKILL, CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW, parameterized args

12 new tests covering:
- INVOKE_SKILL: template placeholder, default skip list, error handling,
  BENEFITS_FROM delegation
- CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW: content, cross-check, voice guidance, format
- Parameterized resolver infra: colon-separated args processing,
  no unresolved placeholders across all generated SKILL.md files

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.13.7.0)

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

* fix: journey routing tests — CLAUDE.md routing rules + stronger descriptions

Three journey E2E tests (ideation, ship, debug) were failing because
Claude answered directly instead of invoking the Skill tool. Root cause:
skill descriptions in system-reminder are too weak to override Claude's
default behavior for tasks it can handle natively.

Fix has two parts:
1. CLAUDE.md routing rules in test workdir — Claude weighs project-level
   instructions higher than skill description metadata
2. "Proactively invoke" (not "suggest") in office-hours, investigate,
   ship descriptions — reinforces the routing signal

10/10 journey tests now pass (was 7/10).

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

* feat: one-time CLAUDE.md routing injection prompt

Add a preamble section that checks if the project's CLAUDE.md has
skill routing rules. If not (and user hasn't declined), asks once
via AskUserQuestion to inject a "## Skill routing" section.

Root cause: skill descriptions in system-reminder metadata are too
weak to reliably trigger proactive Skill tool invocation. CLAUDE.md
project instructions carry higher weight in Claude's decision making.

- Preamble bash checks for "## Skill routing" in CLAUDE.md
- Stores decline in gstack-config (routing_declined=true)
- Only asks once per project (HAS_ROUTING check + config check)

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

* feat: annotated config file + routing injection tests

gstack-config now writes a documented header on first config creation
with every supported key explained (proactive, telemetry, auto_upgrade,
skill_prefix, routing_declined, codex_reviews, skip_eng_review, etc.).
Users can edit ~/.gstack/config.yaml directly, anytime.

Also fixes grep to use ^KEY: anchoring so commented header lines don't
shadow real config values.

Tests added:
- 7 new gstack-config tests (annotated header, no duplication, comment
  safety, routing_declined get/set/reset)
- 6 new gen-skill-docs tests (preamble routing injection: bash checks,
  config reads, AskUserQuestion, decline persistence, routing rules)

jamming them into 0.13.7.0 which already landed on main as
"Community Wave."

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

* docs: clarify branch-scoped VERSION/CHANGELOG after merging main

Add explicit rules: merging main doesn't mean adopting main's version.
Branch always gets its own entry on top with a higher version number.
Three-point checklist after every merge.

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

* fix: put our 0.13.9.0 entry on top of CHANGELOG

Newest version goes on top. Our branch lands next, so our entry
must be above main's 0.13.8.0.

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

* fix: restore missing 0.13.7.0 Community Wave entry

Accidentally dropped the 0.13.7.0 entry when reordering.

* fix: content trust boundary markers in browse output

Wrap page-content commands (text, html, links, forms, accessibility,
console, dialog, snapshot) with --- BEGIN/END UNTRUSTED EXTERNAL CONTENT ---
markers. Covers direct commands (server.ts), chain sub-commands, and
snapshot output (meta-commands.ts).

Adds PAGE_CONTENT_COMMANDS set and wrapUntrustedContent() helper in
commands.ts (single source of truth, DRY). Expands the SKILL.md trust
warning with explicit processing rules for agents.

Clears Snyk W011 (third-party content exposure).

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

* fix: harden trust boundary markers against escape attacks

- Sanitize URLs in markers (remove newlines, cap at 200 chars) to prevent
  marker injection via history.pushState
- Escape marker strings in content (zero-width space) so malicious pages
  can't forge the END marker to break out of the untrusted block
- Wrap resume command snapshot with trust boundary markers
- Wrap diff command output with trust boundary markers
- Wrap watch stop last snapshot with trust boundary markers

when skill_prefix changes. Setup guards against recursive calls
with GSTACK_SETUP_RUNNING env var.

* feat: add feature signal detection to version bump heuristic (#573)

/ship Step 4 now checks for feature signals (new routes, migrations,
test+source pairs, feat/ branches) when deciding version bumps.
PATCH requires no feature signals. MINOR asks the user if any signal
is detected or 500+ lines changed.

* feat: sidebar Write tool, stderr capture, cross-platform URL opener (#584)

Add Write to sidebar allowedTools (both sidebar-agent.ts and server.ts).
Write doesn't expand attack surface beyond what Bash already provides.
Replace empty stderr handler with buffer capture for better error
diagnostics. New bin/gstack-open-url for cross-platform URL opening.

Does NOT include Search Before Building intro flow (deferred).

* fix: update sidebar-security test for Write tool addition

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.13.5.0)

* fix: prevent gstack-relink from double-prefixing gstack-upgrade

gstack-relink now checks if a skill directory is already named gstack-*
before prepending the prefix. Previously, setting skill_prefix=true would
create gstack-gstack-upgrade, breaking the /gstack-upgrade command.

Matches setup script behavior (setup:260) which already has this guard.

* chore: remove .factory/ from git tracking and add to .gitignore

Generated Factory Droid skills are build output, same as .agents/.
They should not be committed to the repo.
