where no release ever comes; and record the concurrent-sibling arm of the

The 45-minute wait is a total queueing budget in the skill too; the lease
promises the holder's release, not every waiter's acquisition; and what it
removes is gate-on-gate contention, for as many starts as fit the budget.

Every stage description now matches the scripts on v2/main: the quiet-gate
baseline figures, the CI job budgets (#2333), the smoke-helper budgets that
are named constants or stated defaults, the maxWorkers decision (#2336), the
Storybook forced pre-bundle (#2340), the gate-lease test suite (#2339/#2346),
and a local:storybook row. Adds the multi-agent section at the end: what the
lease does, why a queue rather than a load wait or a worker cap, what it means
for capacity, and what it does not do.

- The holder-record removal is best-effort and can no longer throw past
release(); ERELEASED on release is the library having already dropped a
taken-over lock, so it is ignored rather than described as a lock that
"goes stale on its own".
- The signal test's stand-in now spawns a descendant of its own, so the
whole-process-group guarantee is what the test asserts: a regression to
child.kill() or a non-detached spawn leaves the descendant alive and fails.
- The three docs no longer claim a dead holder is always recovered in 30s:
a stale lock directory that cannot be removed runs the wait to its
45-minute cap and names the path.

`npm run local:gate` now runs its stages under `scripts/gate-lease.mjs`, a
`proper-lockfile` lease under `os.tmpdir()` (or `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`), so a gate
started in a second worktree waits for the first instead of overlapping it.
Measured on v2/main @ aa56551b: a quiet gate is 257s green; two started
together had one fail at 279s (`smoke:web:chromium` found port 6298 held by
the other gate's smoke) and the survivor take 338s. Under the lease, three
gates started within seconds ran back to back (259s, then 262s, then the
third), each green with zero timeouts.
The lease grants rather than polls a threshold, so two waiters cannot
deadlock on each other; a holder that dies stops refreshing and is taken over
after 30s; a signal to the wrapper stops the whole process group, releases,
and exits 128+signal; the wait names the holder's pid and worktree and gives
up after 45 minutes. `INSPECTOR_SKIP_GATE_LEASE=1` bypasses it. A lock that
cannot be created runs the gate unleased with a warning.
`scriptChainRuns` looks through the wrapper (and only it) so the existing
vouches about what `local:gate` runs keep reading the real chain.

`local:gate` ran every client's unit suite bare inside `validate` and
again instrumented inside `coverage` — ~80s of a ~370s run re-executing
exactly the files the coverage pass runs a few minutes later. CI pays
nothing for that duplication because its two jobs run in parallel; the
gate runs serially, so it paid all of it.
The gate's first stage is now `local:validate`: the same `validate:guards`
and `validate:core`, then each client's new `check` script (`format:check`
+ `lint` + `typecheck` + `build`) instead of its `validate`, which is now
literally `check && test`. `npm run validate` and both CI jobs are
unchanged; `local:validate` sits in the `local:` namespace so the
workflow guard keeps it out of CI by construction.
The "strict superset" claim in AGENTS.md is reworded to what is now
true — every CI *check*, not every CI *invocation* — with the reasoning:
`@vitest/coverage-v8` reads V8's precise-coverage profiler and rewrites
no source, so the instrumented pass runs byte-identical code and is only
slower, the stricter direction for the failure class this repo sees.
Measured on the same worktree: 370s -> 262s wall (EXIT=0 both), the
four removed legs summing to 78.5s in the baseline run's own profile.

Round 8 of the review asked for an AST. That was the right diagnosis of the
wrong problem: the question was never which parser to use, it was why a
test-timeout guard was parsing JavaScript at all.
It got there one reasonable step at a time. The guard enforces two rules no
Vitest config can report — a per-test `retry`, and Testing Library's
`asyncUtilTimeout` — so it read them out of source text, and the review found a
new valid spelling it missed in five consecutive rounds: a trailing comment,
nested parens in `it.each([makeCase()])`, a member-access prefix, the shorthand
`{ retry }`, an aliased import, a non-literal title. Each fix was correct and
each made it more parser-shaped, until it carried eight helpers doing quote
tracking and bracket balancing.
Both rules are observable at runtime, exactly:
- `vitest.setup.shared.mts` is loaded by all six projects and reads
`ctx.task.retry` — the value Vitest resolved for the test. That covers
strictly more than the scan did: a per-test option, a `describe` option
inherited by children, a project-level setting, and a `--retry` flag typed at
a command line, which the scan could never see since it only read npm scripts.
- `clients/web/src/test/asyncUtilTimeout.test.ts` asserts
`getConfig().asyncUtilTimeout`, the value this project's own waitFors read.
Neither has a spelling to anticipate, so neither can be outrun by a new one.
Both were observed firing before being trusted.
The guard keeps only what it can answer by asking Vitest: resolved budgets,
project-level retry, config discovery, and that each project still loads the
setup file — the one thing about the runtime assertion a config CAN report.
868 lines to 361, every scanner helper gone, and 33 of 48 unit tests deleted
because they pinned edge cases of a thing that no longer exists.
storybookSetup.ts goes with it. At the library's own value its configure() call
was a no-op, and the assertion is what pins the number.
AGENTS.md gains the general rule: a rule about what the code DOES is asserted at
runtime, not read out of the source — reach for a verify:* guard when the
question is about configuration, which a tool can be asked to resolve.

Both findings are the same shape as round 2's: a guard that documents an
invariant while checking one narrow expression of it.
`retry` was only rejected at the project level, so `it("x", { retry: 2 })` and a
`--retry` flag in an npm script both walked through a guard whose own header
said "no retry anywhere". Enforcement is extended rather than the claim
narrowed, because the decision is about the behavior, not about a config key —
all three places Vitest accepts one are now scanned, and the header names the
one that remains out of reach (a human typing --retry into their own shell),
rather than overclaiming.
The test-definition scan is deliberately positional: the retry must sit in an
options object following the test name, which is the only place Vitest reads it
from. A bare word match would fire on fixture data, on `client.retry`, on an
unrelated helper's options and on a mock — all of which exist here, and a guard
that cries wolf gets disabled. Both directions are tested. The first pattern
also missed `it.each([...])("name", { retry })` entirely, so every parameterized
suite was a blind spot; the table argument is now part of the pattern.
Config discovery named only the two `.ts` spellings this repo happens to use,
while Vitest loads twelve. A `clients/foo/vitest.config.mts` was therefore
invisible, and an invisible config yields no project to reject — the same hole
round 1 found in the hand-written CONFIG_ROOTS, one level down. Both discovery
and resolution now use the full set, ordered as Vitest orders it.
Both checks were observed firing before being trusted: a planted retry in a
launcher test and a planted vitest.config.mts each fail the guard.

The comment stripper had a real hole: the line-comment regex was anchored, so it
only removed `//` at the start of a line and a call disabled after code —
`const disabled = true; // configure({ asyncUtilTimeout: 1000 });` — survived it
and the guard passed with no effective configuration. Replaced with a scanner,
because a regex gets this wrong in both directions: it has to strip a comment
that follows code, and it must NOT treat the `//` inside a string literal as one,
which would silently truncate any line holding a URL. Quote tracking (with
escapes) is the only way to have both. Three regression tests.
Two documentation claims were also wrong. The guard header and quality-gate.md
cited #2278 and #2250 as instances of a budget nobody chose; they were not —
#2278 was a missing condition wait around a geometry read and #2250 a real race
in a test's own timing, both fixed by making the test wait for the right thing.
Presenting a race fix as evidence for a larger ceiling argues against #1596,
which this guard exists to uphold. Only the budget and poll-ceiling cases are
cited now, and both files say explicitly why those two are excluded.
And browser-timeouts.mjs overstated its own behavior twice: `bestEffort` can
spend its full budget on an otherwise passing smoke precisely because its expiry
is caught, and raising any budget does delay the report when the thing waited on
never arrives. The diagnostics improve the eventual message; they do not make
the wait shorter. Both now stated plainly, so the header is something to weigh a
change against rather than a reassurance.

The inline finding was a real bug: main() never called the discovery check, so
the deny-by-default claim rested on test:scripts happening to run the same
comparison — a different command, which `npm run verify:test-timeouts` does not
invoke. `failures` is now seeded from it, and a probe config under clients/ was
observed to fail the guard.
Three suppressed findings, all correct. The afterEach in oauth-interactive
restated the shared hookTimeout and labelled it as a round trip, when it only
stops a server and unlinks a file; it now carries no budget. The file-lock
constants were named for the opposite of what they bound — 90s covers retries
running out against a holder that never yields, 60s covers the stale-lock
takeover that succeeds — so they are LOCK_RETRIES_EXHAUSTED_MS and
STALE_LOCK_TAKEOVER_MS. The browser-timeouts header said 15 budgets; it is 19.
Separately, and more importantly: the asyncUtilTimeout raise is reverted, on
measurement. Verifying round 2 turned up intermittent 15s timeouts across
unrelated unit files, so three arms of three full unit runs were taken in this
worktree at comparable load — unmodified v2/main 3/3 green, this change with
5000 producing 1, 4 and 0 timing-out files, and the same change with that one
line reverted 3/3 green. A wait that is MEANT to expire spends its whole budget
on the happy path, so a 5x raise is a 5x cost on exactly those tests and
saturates the worker pool, starving tests that were never slow.
Both web setup files therefore state asyncUtilTimeout at the library's own
value rather than raising it, which is what #2323's rule actually asks for: a
budget nobody chose is the defect, not a budget that is small. The tests that
assert absence by letting a wait expire are the real problem and are #2335.

Three of the six Vitest projects ran on Vitest's own testTimeout: 5000 and
five on its hookTimeout/teardownTimeout: 10000, and all 788 Testing Library
waits in the web unit project ran on asyncUtilTimeout: 1000. None of those
numbers was chosen here, and all of them were sized for an idle machine rather
than for three or four concurrent worktree sessions each running a full
local:gate on eight cores. #2292, #2278, #2250, #1942 and #1742 were each that
class, diagnosed one site at a time.
This is the complement of #1596, not a retreat from it: every fix that issue
produced stands, and no race is hidden here. What changes is that a correct,
deterministic test is no longer cut off by a budget nobody picked.
- vitest.shared.mts exports frozen TIMEOUTS / INTEGRATION_TIMEOUTS; all six
projects spread one of them, clients/launcher importing the shared module for
the first time to do so.
- Both web projects configure Testing Library's asyncUtilTimeout. The storybook
one needs its own setup file, deliberately outside .storybook/ and free of
setProjectAnnotations so the automatic preview-annotation provisioning
(#1898) is untouched.
- 28 per-suite restatements of the integration project's own budget are gone,
so raising the shared value now moves every site under it. The handful that
genuinely differ — cross-process lock contention, a full OAuth round trip —
keep their budget as a named constant that says why.
- AppRenderer's waitFor no longer asks for exactly its enclosing budget, which
it could never win (#2292's shape); cli's e2e child timer drops below the
project budget so the bound carrying the diagnostic is the one that fires.
- The transition auto-settle's slack term is named RAF_SLACK_MS and raised;
the term derived from HEADER_ANIM_MS is untouched. The two answer to
different things and must not be scaled as one number.
- The 19 Playwright budgets scattered across three web smokes become four
named constants in scripts/lib/browser-timeouts.mjs.
scripts/verify-test-timeouts.mjs resolves each project through Vitest itself
and asserts the budgets, the asyncUtilTimeout sites, and that retry stays
unset. It was observed red against the pre-change config: unit/tui/launcher at
testTimeout 5000, five projects at hookTimeout 10000, both asyncUtilTimeout
sites unmet.

`pack:verify` rows below it would have rendered as pipe-delimited text.

third. Both now name all three, and the header says which field is
excluded and points at the reason.
- `AGENTS.md`: "Nothing keeps the surviving copies aligned, and nothing

- Include `optionalDependencies` in the declared tier's candidate union. A
peer range constrains the consumer's host; an optional range is a direct
declaration npm attempts to install, so omitting it left an optional-only
package free to skew unseen. `peerDependencies` stays excluded, with the
reason stated.
- Make the end-to-end fixture's client copy UNDECLARED — only the root
manifest names `solo`, while `clients/web` merely holds a top-level copy.
That is #2226's defining shape, and it is what makes the candidate set a
union across installs rather than a per-install intersection; the old
fixture would have passed a per-install implementation. Adds the mirror
case (declared only by a client, held by the root) so the union is pinned
in both directions.
- Update the two docs that still described the single-tier guard:
`.claude/skills/local-dev/SKILL.md` said "nothing gates either of those,
and `verify:dep-lockstep` is not it" and cited the live `@types/node`
drift in the present tense; `docs/quality-gate.md` described only the
program tier. Both now state what each tier covers and the two limits
that remain.

- `.github/copilot-instructions.md` — modify/delete again. Kept deleted; the

- `AGENTS.md` — two of the three incoming hunks merged cleanly, both of them

`error` in every React scope including `core/react/**`, and
`set-state-in-effect` now covers `core/react/` with `clients/tui` called out
as the exception. The third was a `validate:core` bullet inside the pre-push
gate section this PR moved wholesale to docs/quality-gate.md, so its mechanism
went there instead — including why the plugin has to be a ROOT devDependency
(Node resolution walks up, not down, so a client-local copy is unreachable).
- `README.md` — the incoming paragraph was added to the quality-gate section
this README no longer carries. Moved verbatim to docs/quality-gate.md, beside
the type-aware-lint paragraph it belongs with.

`core.autocrlf` has `---\r\n`, the fence is still the first line, and the
authoritative validator accepts it — so `npm run validate` was failing a valid
manifest, and failing it *before* that validator ever ran. The closing fence
now strips a preceding CR too, so the YAML handed to the parser is clean.
Regression cases for CRLF, mixed endings, and CRLF-with-no-body, plus cases
proving the first-line rule and the whole-line terminator rule still hold with
CRLF. Verified by mutation.
- docs/quality-gate: `verify:skills` requires eval cases only from model-invoked
skills; the seven name-only ones intentionally have none, and the summary read
as an instruction to add them everywhere.

the EXACT pinned CLI. `local:gate` runs `validate` before the pinned
`verify:skills:cli` step, so a newer local CLI could reject skills that CI's
pinned validator accepts — and the gate would exit there, never reaching the
reproducible check. One schema everywhere, or none.
- Dropped `PLUGIN_VALIDATE_MIN_VERSION`: with both validators on the exact pin
it was read only by its own test, and a constant nothing enforces is a claim
nothing enforces. Its test now pins what actually matters — that equality is
distinguishable from newer as well as older.

floor let a maintainer on a newer CLI validate against a different schema than

pin exists to prevent.
- verify-skills-cli: extract `runValidator({probe, spawn, log, error})` and
cover the orchestration — validator accepts, validator rejects, spawn fails,
and the three unusable-probe shapes. On a machine with a working CLI an actual
run only ever walks the happy path.
- pr-flow: stop putting the `gh` token in curl's argv, where any local process
can read it off the process table. Feed the header through `curl --config -`.

- verify:skills:cli — the authoritative validator is now a GUARANTEED step in
`local:gate` and CI, not a best-effort hand-off. It resolves the CLI itself
(an installed one at 2.1.233+, else a pinned `npx -y`), so both tiers run the
same script and cannot drift. `verify:skills` keeps skipping when the CLI is
absent, which is right for `validate`: fast, offline, no Claude Code required.
- skill-manifest: the 1,536-char listing-entry cap covers `description` +
`when_to_use` together; checking the description alone passed an over-cap
entry. `when_to_use` is now parsed, validated and counted, with boundary tests
at 1,536/1,537.
- verify-skills: report the budget as *this repo's contribution*. The real
listing budget is shared with bundled skills and the contributor's own
~/.claude/skills, none of which is visible from here, so the number was
claiming more than it measured.
- skill-eval: a negative case now means "no skill OF THIS REPO'S fired". It
failed on any Skill invocation, so a contributor with an unrelated global
skill got a false failure about their environment rather than these skills.
- docs/architecture + local-dev: the Node backend runner gets its
`@inspector/core` alias from `clients/web/tsup.runner.config.ts`, not from
Vite. The old text sent runner work to the wrong config.
- local-dev: the tarball does not ship "only each client's build/" — the
allowlist also carries `clients/web/dist`, `clients/web/static` and the
install helper. States the invariant that actually matters instead.
- issue-triage: the test for needing triage is "no board card". Adding "and no
milestone" would skip the approved-but-unboarded case the same section then
handles. Also corrected the `$M` note: the lookup is `--state all`, so closed
issues DO have entries — `isopen` is about the invariants, not the lookup.
- issue-create: replaced "all five" with a per-version table. Steps 3 and 6
(milestone, Priority) do not exist for v1, so the old list opened with a rule
the same skill later tells you to violate.

- CI now installs a pinned `claude` CLI and runs `claude plugin validate` as its
own step. The guard skips the authoritative validator when the CLI is absent,
which without this meant "always, in CI" — so the acceptance criterion was
aspirational. Verified it needs no authentication (clean HOME).
- skill-eval: classify a run from its terminal `result` event, not its exit
code. With `--max-turns 1` a run in which a skill FIRES necessarily hits the
limit and the CLI exits 1 (`error_max_turns`, `num_turns: 2`), so last round's
blanket nonzero rejection threw away exactly the observations the eval counts.
A run with no terminal `result`, or an unusable subtype, still rejects.
- skill-eval: fail collection on a skill that does not parse, a model-invoked
skill with no eval file, unreadable JSON, or invalid cases. Skipping them let
`skills:eval` exit 0 while silently omitting the skill just broken.
- verify-skills: `main()` takes an optional skills directory, and
`verify-skills.main.test.mjs` drives it over fixtures — missing SKILL.md,
malformed frontmatter, undeclared invocation mode, missing/invalid evals,
budget overflow (and that name-only skills do not count toward it), and
multi-offender reporting. Matches the sibling guards' *.main.test.mjs
precedent; without it the gate could stop enforcing while the parser tests
stayed green.
- issue-create: the note claimed an issue arrives unlabeled, contradicting
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE — blank issues are disabled, the bug form applies
`bug`, the feature form applies `enhancement` + `v2`. Now a table of what each
form sets and what triage still has to add.

- skill-manifest: the closing `---` fence must occupy a whole line. `---oops`
was accepted as a terminator, silently truncating the frontmatter and passing
validation — the exact failure the guard exists to catch. Regression cases
added (prefix, trailing whitespace, EOF, CRLF).
- skill-eval: reject a nonzero `claude -p` exit instead of resolving it as an
empty observation. An auth error or rate limit was scoring as "no skill
invoked", which passes every negative case and reads as a trigger miss on
every positive one.
- skill-eval: extract `collectSkillInvocations` / `sampleHit` behind a `main()`
guard and cover them in `skill-eval.test.mjs` — the stream parsing and the
process-outcome handling are unreachable from an eval run's happy path.
- docs/test-servers: annotate the era on every catalogue row. Six legacy rows
carried no annotation under a "unless noted, Modern" default, so the doc sent
readers to the wrong era for the feature they were trying to see.
- docs/quality-gate: `validate` runs four guards, not three; add the
`verify:skills` row and the two new `test:scripts` suites; fix the `#publishing`
fragment left dangling by the split.
- issue-create / pr-flow: delegate the card steps to `/board-ops` rather than
restating its option IDs, which are explicitly unstable.
- issue-triage: the audit counted presence, not cardinality — an issue carrying
both `v1` and `v2` passed a check that claims "exactly one". Same for the five
type labels. Also scope the two milestone checks to board #28.
- AGENTS.md: codify the v1 milestone exception. Every milestone is a v2 release
bucket, so a v1 issue has none to take and the Incoming-milestone invariant
cannot apply to board #11.
- clients/launcher/README: its pointer promised an explanation of why the cli/tui
manifests ship, which the extracted guide does not make.

Closes#2163
`AGENTS.md` was one 1,223-line contract loaded in full on every turn, whether
the task was a one-line CSS fix or a release cut. This splits it: rules stay
resident, procedures move to `.claude/skills/`.
- Ten skills under `.claude/skills/`, seven `disable-model-invocation: true`
(invoked by name only, so they cost no listing context and have no trigger
question) and three model-invoked with committed eval cases.
- `AGENTS.md` 1,223 → 380 lines: rules, a skills index, and a project tree
reduced to one line per entry. The removed recipes are not duplicated.
- `README.md` 811 → 105 lines, split into `docs/{architecture,quality-gate,
test-servers,publishing,docker}.md`, and dropped from `CLAUDE.md`'s auto-load.
- `.github/copilot-instructions.md` and its mirroring rule removed — Copilot
reads `AGENTS.md`.
- `npm run verify:skills` (in `validate`, so in `local:gate` and CI) parses each
SKILL.md the way Claude Code does, requires an explicit invocation mode and
eval cases for model-invoked skills, and budgets the listing.
- `npm run skills:eval` runs the committed trigger cases headless.
