feat(skills): GitNexus Engineering Tool Kits (#2566)

* feat(skills): add ce-plan — GitNexus+PDG implementation-planning skill

Adds .claude/skills/ce-plan: a planning-only skill that builds
implementation-ready plans from GitNexus graph navigation (query/context/
impact/trace), bounded statement-level PDG slices (pdg_query, impact
mode:pdg, explain), and targeted source verification, with a context
ledger to prevent repeated reads and a machine-readable implementation
context pack (stable contract for a future ce-implement). Whitelisted in
.gitignore and registered in AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md outside the
auto-managed gitnexus block.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(skills): apply ce-plan validation findings (tool contract, consistency, conventions)

Tool contract: impact mode:'pdg' shape now includes the schema-required
direction param; CDG branch sense documented as the result 'label' field
(reason is cypher/raw-edge only); explain caveats corrected to its real
false-negative classes (cross-function TAINT_PATH is modeled).

Consistency: PDG slice homed in working memory (ledger keeps one-liners);
depth knob defined and category-overrides-baseline ordering stated;
call_depth (consumed by nothing) and content-hash bookkeeping dropped;
Never section folded into Hard rules; Phase 3 deduplicated to a pointer;
allowed-repeat escalations defined; budget/discard accounting clarified;
verification-commands gathering added to Phase 4; open_questions added to
the context pack.

From scenario runs: plans now pin the verified-at HEAD commit and index
freshness in a header, tag claims [verified]/[graph]/[inferred]/[assumed],
quote load-bearing tool output, prefer pre-hook-carrying npm scripts, and
support an out:<path> destination override; output path defined as the
Phase 1 target repo root.

Conventions: AGENTS.md 1.9.0 / CLAUDE.md 1.4.0 changelog rows + metadata
bumps; future ce-implement qualified as future.

* feat(skills): rename ce-plan → gitnexus-plan; add cross-CLI (Codex) entrypoints

Renames the skill dir, frontmatter, output filename convention, plan H1
(GitNexus Engineering Plan), the future executor handle
(gitnexus-implement), the .gitignore whitelist entry, and all
AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md references. Follows the pr-swarm-review cross-CLI
pattern: SKILL.md is the canonical CLI-neutral spec, AGENTS.md § Engineering
planning is the Codex/any-agent entrypoint, and the README documents the
optional user-level ~/.codex/prompts/gitnexus-plan.md slash command plus an
invocation matrix. Skill prose de-branded from Claude Code (agent-neutral
verification layer).

Also fixes two post-review README contradictions: the anti-reread claim now
names the ledger's allowed escalations, and 'read-only by contract' is now
'planning-only' (the skill writes exactly one repo file — the plan); the
scope-creep rule and template §12 now agree on where deferred follow-ups
land. Drops the stale plugin-collision limitation.

* docs(skills): document Codex user-level install path for gitnexus-plan

Codex discovers SKILL.md skills from ~/.agents/skills (same path the other
gitnexus-* skills install to); README now documents the cp install plus the
optional ~/.codex/prompts slash-command file, with the prompt body preferring
the repo copy and falling back to the user-level install.

* feat(skills): gitnexus-plan freshness gate + active PDG-layer refresh

Freshness is now a Phase 1 gate, not advisory: under the default
freshness:strict, a stale index is refreshed once per planning session via
node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze --index-only (appending --pdg when the task
will reach the PDG phase), then the context resource is re-read. A missing
PDG layer likewise triggers the one permitted --index-only --pdg refresh
and re-probe instead of a passive recommendation. freshness:accept (or a
failed/impractical refresh) preserves the old behavior: plan on the stale
graph, source-weighted, labelled in the plan header. --index-only is the
load-bearing flag choice — it suppresses all file generation, so the
planning-only contract holds (only the .gitnexus store changes). Ledger
gains an index_refresh record; plan header states fresh / refreshed /
refresh-skipped-with-reason.

* feat(skills): gitnexus-plan runner build check before freshness refresh

When the target repo builds the analyzer from its own source (bin → dist/
mapping, as gitnexus/ does), the Phase 1 freshness gate now verifies dist/
is current before running the analyze refresh — rebuilding via the
package's build script when any analyzer source file is newer than the
built entrypoint — and prefers that freshly built CLI. Otherwise a stale
dist re-indexes with outdated extraction logic and the 'fresh' index lies.
Rebuilds are recorded in the ledger's index_refresh; the PDG-phase refresh
inherits the same check.

* feat(skills): add gitnexus-work executor and gitnexus-lfg pipeline

gitnexus-work executes a gitnexus-plan as verified atomic commits: consumes
the §11 implementation_context pack, drift-checks the plan's evidence pin
against HEAD, re-verifies assumptions before relying on them, runs impact
before every symbol edit and detect_changes before every commit (repo
mandates), builds tests from the plan's scenarios, and routes structural
drift back to gitnexus-plan Deepen mode instead of coding around it.

gitnexus-lfg is a thin orchestrator: gitnexus-plan → blocking user gate
(deepen / proceed / stop, deepen loops allowed) → gitnexus-work → review
via the existing gitnexus-pr-review skill (open PR, else branch diff vs
default). One bounded fix cycle for review findings; never pushes or opens
a PR on its own.

gitnexus-plan gains a Deepen mode (re-run freshness gate, escalate to
depth:deep, re-verify graph/inferred/assumed claims toward verified,
rewrite the same file); its 'future gitnexus-implement' placeholder is
retired in favor of gitnexus-work. Registered via .gitignore whitelists,
AGENTS.md 1.10.0 (section renamed to Engineering planning & execution),
CLAUDE.md 1.5.0.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(skills): apply cross-skill review findings to the gitnexus skill family

Two P1s: gitnexus-plan Deepen mode now re-anchors before re-pinning
(diffs the old evidence pin over every [verified]-claim file and re-reads
or downgrades before the header moves — moving the pin without this
laundered stale claims as verified); the index-refresh budget is stated
once in Phase 1 (one --index-only refresh plus at most one Phase 3 --pdg
upgrade per session, Deepen = its own session) with ledger and pdg-slice
deferring to it.

Contract fixes: gitnexus-work's drift check now covers every file the
pack cites (not just files_to_modify) and parses the full pack incl.
primary/related symbols and acceptance_criteria (walked in Phase 4
alongside §13); a pre-completed check skips §7 steps already landed and
Deepen gains a reconcile-execution-state step, closing the mid-execution
route-back loop; pack assumptions must name what to check and how.

lfg: Lane 4 passes the merge-base to detect_changes compare (two-dot
diff misattributes upstream commits when default advanced), branch-diff
is the stated normal case, oversized review findings route to the plan
gate instead of overflowing direct mode, the one-fix-cycle cap is
explicit on re-run, and headless runs end at the plan gate with the plan
as deliverable. work: blank mode narrowed to *gitnexus-plan*.md with a
re-execution guard, direct-mode discipline spelled out, branch
meaningfulness defined against the plan slug, and the plan document is
committed as the branch's docs commit (review diff includes it).
Planning-only contract now names the dist/ rebuild as the second
permitted state change; Phase 5.1 names the four claim tags; stale
AGENTS.md anchors fixed.

Known latent issue left untouched: gitnexus/gitnexus-pr-review pairs a
three-dot example with a two-dot detect_changes compare — that skill is
also shipped by the plugin, so fixing it here would drift the copies;
lfg compensates by passing the merge-base.

* feat(skills): ship the engineering skill family with the gitnexus package

npm i -g gitnexus users now get gitnexus-plan / gitnexus-work / gitnexus-lfg:
the three skills are added to gitnexus/skills/ in directory form (SKILL.md +
references/), which installSkillsTo already enumerates dynamically and copies
recursively to every editor target (~/.agents/skills for Codex, Cursor,
OpenCode, Qoder, ...) on gitnexus setup — uninstall enumerates the same root,
so removal stays clean. The Claude Code plugin channel
(gitnexus-claude-plugin/skills/) carries the same copies plus the standard
per-skill mcp.json.

Global-install support in the skill text: gitnexus-plan Phase 1 now resolves
the analyzer runner explicitly — node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze when the
project has a runner, else gitnexus analyze (installed CLI), else
npx gitnexus analyze — and all analyze mentions route through it, satisfying
the skills-steering policy (#1939/#1945) which sweeps the plugin copies.

New drift guard test/unit/shipped-skills-sync.test.ts asserts the npm and
plugin copies stay byte-identical to the canonical .claude/skills/ family
(plugin = canonical + mcp.json), same discipline as run.cjs ↔
resolve-invocation.ts. skills-steering + shipped-skills-sync: 11/11 green.

* feat(eval): workflow_bench — measure the skill workflow's token savings

Benchmarks gitnexus-plan → gitnexus-work against a baseline agent
(--disallowedTools Skill) on identical tasks, in fresh detached worktrees,
using real headless Claude Code sessions; every number comes from the CLI's
--output-format json usage report (field names validated against a live
2.1.207 session). Reports per-arm medians (input/cache/output tokens, cost,
wall time, turns), a savings row, and resolve status from a per-task verify
command — savings on failed tasks are flagged, not celebrated. Per-task
setup hook prepares fresh worktrees (deps); --permission-mode
bypassPermissions (default) lets sessions run unattended in the throwaway
trees.

Free-model support: --base-url/--auth-token/--model route headless sessions
through any Anthropic-compatible endpoint; free-model.litellm.yaml is a
ready litellm-proxy template for OpenRouter :free variants or local Ollama,
so benchmarking burns no paid tokens (README documents rate limits and the
small-model skill-following caveat).

Harness validated end-to-end with a stub CLI (worktree lifecycle, both
arms, plan→work chaining, verify, aggregation, report) and 4 pytest units
for the pure aggregation/savings/report helpers. AGENTS.md 1.11.0.

* docs(eval): record first workflow_bench calibration run

Trivial-task calibration (add -V alias): both arms resolved; workflow arm
~4.3x baseline cost — the documented overhead-dominated regime, recorded so
the regime boundary is empirical rather than asserted.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(eval): workflow_bench scenario matrix — arm variants, task classes, churn

Ground-base measurement across scenarios: tasks.scenarios.yaml spans four
labeled classes (trivial → investigation-bug → investigation-feature →
cross-module) with deterministic verifies (prescribed test files). New arms:
workflow_direct (gitnexus-work direct mode — the middle option that locates
the routing boundary lfg's gate and work's triage encode) and baseline_nomcp
(no skills AND no graph tools — separates workflow-discipline value from
GitNexus-tool value; off by default). Records now carry task class and diff
churn (files/+ins/−del vs the starting commit) as an over-engineering proxy;
the report renders a class column and per-arm savings rows vs baseline.
5 pytest units + stub-CLI e2e of the full three-arm matrix.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(eval): record workflow_bench ground base; fix churn measurement bias

Ground base (3 classes x 3 arms, n=1/cell): every arm resolved every task —
pass/fail quality saturates at this difficulty, making the comparison pure
cost. Full plan→work never amortized its ~$9-11 fixed cost on tasks a
baseline finishes in ≤35 turns (−211% to −333% cost); workflow_direct sits
near baseline (−15% to −55%, once faster wall) with more test coverage.
Routing implication recorded: direct mode/plain agent below this scale,
full workflow for cross-module / multi-session / plan-as-deliverable work.
The cross-module cell and multi-run variance are the next measurements.

Churn fix: git add --intent-to-add -A before diffing (arms that never
commit no longer undercount new files) and :(exclude)docs/plans (the
committed plan doc no longer inflates workflow churn); this run's churn
numbers predate the fix and are omitted from the recorded table.

* perf(skills): cost-optimize the workflow from measured ground base

Every optimization targets a measured fixed-cost component
(eval/workflow_bench ground base: workflow arm −211% to −333% vs baseline,
all tasks resolved):

- Plan form is category-priced: compact form (core sections w/ § anchors
  preserved, ≤80 lines excl. pack, mini-pack subset of the context pack)
  for narrow/default categories; the full 13 sections only for deep work
  (refactor/security/performance/concurrency/architecture). A compact plan
  outgrowing its cap reclassifies to full rather than overflowing.
- Freshness gate is category-priced: compact categories default to accept
  (source-weighted, refresh only when a graph claim becomes load-bearing);
  strict stays the default for full-plan categories — the rebuild+re-index
  was the largest single fixed cost.
- Turn economy: per-category tool-call budgets (~10 to ~45; architecture
  uncapped); budget exhaustion routes open questions to §12 instead of
  more digging.
- gitnexus-work fast path: HEAD == evidence pin → skip all citation
  re-reading (the pin's entire point); mini-pack fields tolerated.
- lfg Lane 1 boundary triage: tasks below the measured ~35-turn boundary
  get offered gitnexus-work direct mode before the plan lane is spent.

Copies re-synced (npm skills/, plugin, ~/.agents); steering + sync guards
green. Re-measurement of the workflow arm follows to verify the numbers
actually improve.

* docs(eval): record optimization re-measurement — inv-bug workflow cell −20% cost

Same task, same conditions, post-830a0459 skills: $14.56→$11.70 (−20%),
83→72 turns, cache_read −24%; verified in-transcript that the compact form,
turn budget, and skipped rebuild/re-index all fired. Wall +15% from a work-
session test-debugging tail (n=1 variance). Regime unchanged (~3.5x baseline
on this class) — routing rule stands.

* fix(eval): per-arm clone isolation — worktree ref-namespace leak contaminated an arm

The cross-module workflow_direct cell reported an impossible 28-turn solve
with churn byte-identical to the workflow arm: git worktree add shares the
repo's ref namespace, so the workflow arm's slug branch (created by
gitnexus-work Phase 2) survived worktree removal and the direct arm found
and adopted the completed work. Arms now get isolated git clone --shared
copies (object store via alternates, refs clone-local — agent branches and
stashes die with the clone; origin/<ref> fallback for non-default refs).
Leaked branch deleted; baseline arm verified clean (0 branch references in
its transcript); cell marked invalidated pending re-run.

Records the valid cross-module cells: workflow $18.32 vs baseline $18.03
(premium −1.6%, vs −211%..−333% on smaller classes) — fixed costs amortize
at this scale, with a less destructive diff and a plan artifact as bonus;
resolve rate still tied. Churn fingerprinting is what caught the
contamination — noted in the README as an integrity check.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(eval): complete cross-module cell — direct mode wins 47% cost / 56% wall

Clean clone-isolated re-run: workflow_direct resolved the hardest class at
$9.53/52 turns/15m vs $18.03/98/34m baseline and $18.32/107/37m full
workflow. The measured story across all four classes: the execution
discipline (gitnexus-work) is the consistent sweet spot and delivers real
token savings on hard tasks; the planning pass buys its artifact, not
same-session savings. Resolve rate tied everywhere (n=1/cell caveat).

* feat(eval): add trajectory-gated skill evolution (#2431)

- Pair prompt candidates with incumbent workflow arms
- Gate promotions on pinned-model quality and efficiency
- Expire router evidence and document its lifecycle

* fix(eval): allow pr-review skill candidates

* feat(skills): rename and generalize GitNexus review

* feat(eval): external-comparator and review arms for workflow_bench

- ce_workflow / ce_workflow_direct: compound-engineering ce-plan/ce-work
  arms prompted with the same structure as the gitnexus arms
- review / ce_review: gitnexus-review vs ce-code-review on an identical
  diff applied by the task's setup
- plan handoff is snapshot-based: committed example plans in docs/plans/
  tie on clone mtimes and broke the name-glob pick (executed a stale plan)
- verify output tail is recorded per run and the final working-tree patch
  is kept, so failed rows are diagnosable after the clone is destroyed

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(skills,eval): address #2431 review — data-safe rename migration, fail-closed bench evidence

- setup: never delete a legacy renamed skill dir — the installer cannot
  prove ownership (users customize or hand-write skills under these
  names); warn with the path instead, and the test now asserts survival
- workflow_bench: fail closed when a session's --output-format json
  report is empty, malformed, or missing usage fields — an exit-0 shell
  with no parseable usage no longer counts as measured evidence
  (5 parametrized regression tests)
- workflow_bench: document the trust model prominently (task setup/verify
  are shell-executed, sessions run bypassPermissions with the parent env,
  candidate overlays are prompt injection surface) in README + docstring
- free-model.litellm.yaml: master_key from LITELLM_MASTER_KEY env instead
  of a static token; loopback-binding warning
- ci: run the eval workflow_bench pytest suite on ubuntu (pytest+pyyaml
  only — no full eval stack)

* fix(eval): demand observed foreground verification in headless work-arm prompts

In a headless -p session there is no later turn: a work arm backgrounded
its slow test run, scheduled wakeups that can never fire, and reported
done while two of its tests failed. All four work-arm prompts (both
skill families, symmetric) now require verification output to be
observed inside the session.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(skills): ask plan depth up front instead of offering deepen afterwards

gitnexus-plan Phase 0 now asks one blocking question in interactive
sessions — quick / standard / deep, mapped onto the existing depth/form/
freshness knobs — when the invocation carries no explicit depth signal.
Explicit knobs and headless runs skip the question (category posture
unchanged, so benchmarks and automation behave as before).

gitnexus-lfg's plan gate slims to proceed/stop: depth was already the
user's up-front choice, so deepening is no longer offered by default —
an explicit deepen request at the gate and executor route-backs still
run Deepen mode, which remains the mechanism for strengthening an
existing plan document.

All shipped copies resynced (npm skills/, Claude plugin); AGENTS.md
1.13.0 and CLAUDE.md 1.7.0 pointers updated, including the analyzer's
regenerated index-stats block at this branch's head.

* feat(skills): taint pass, expert lenses, and post-work index refresh

gitnexus-review gains a PDG-backed taint-and-dependence pass (explain +
pdg_query, --pdg folded into the stale refresh on trust-boundary diffs) and
an Expert lenses section: domain reviewers derived from the graph's
clusters plus four cross-cutting lenses (architectural fit, language
conformance per the repo's own contract, Definition of Done, simplicity),
dispatched once after the evidence-gathering steps and scaled to the diff.
gitnexus-work Phase 4 now refreshes the knowledge graph after the DoD walk
via the resolved-runner ladder with analyze --index-only, so the lfg review
lane and later sessions query the finished work without dirtying the tree.
lfg's threshold-governance paragraph moves to its README; eval citations
are tagged as measured in the GitNexus repo. All shipped copies re-synced.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(cli): remove legacy gitnexus-pr-review on uninstall; cover the rename migration

uninstall's removal set now includes LEGACY_SKILL_DIR_NAMES derived from
RENAMED_SKILL_DIRS, so a pre-rename install is cleaned up instead of
orphaned. The rename warning gains behavioral coverage (fires with a legacy
dir present, silent without), and shipped-skills-sync asserts legacy names
stay absent from every shipped tree.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(eval): metric provenance, error-kind rows, skill-invocation verification, gate noise floor

The promotion gate defaults to cost_usd (the only metric that includes
subagent spend); token metrics carry an explicit main-loop-only warning in
the report and promotion.json. Rows are classified by error_kind
(session-error / verify-failed / infra-error), excluded from efficiency
medians, and the gate requires equal valid-run counts. Each session's
transcript is scanned for the expected Skill invocation and fails closed on
a verified miss; a one-run resolution edge no longer promotes (noise
floor). Per-run timeouts and setup failures record an infra-error row
instead of aborting the sweep. Overlays touching skills no candidate arm
exercises are rejected up front.

* docs: fix skill routing paths, version headers, and skill rosters

Routing tables point at the tracked direct skill paths (matching the
post-#2434 generator output), AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md headers match their
latest changelog rows, the 1.12.0 row describes what the migration actually
does, package/cursor READMEs list the full shipped skill roster, and the
swarm READMEs describe /gitnexus-review's expert lenses instead of calling
it single-agent.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* ci: drift-guard workflow for skill copies; pin eval pip deps; track docs/plans

ci.yml ignores '**.md', so an md-only skill edit would merge without the
shipped-skills-sync test running — skill-sync.yml triggers exactly on the
guarded trees. The eval job's pip install is version-pinned, and
docs/plans/ is unignored so gitnexus-plan output can be committed.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(ci): keep the runner-invocation literal in gitnexus-review; add concurrency block to skill-sync

skills-steering requires skills with a stale-index hint to carry the exact
'node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze' form — restore it with the fallback ladder
as a parenthetical instead of replacing it. skill-sync.yml gains the
top-level concurrency block the workflow-convention check enforces.

* feat(skills): token-economy guidance for expert lenses

Merge lenses that ground in the same material into one reviewer, and use
cheaper model/effort tiers for mechanical lenses where the harness offers
them, reserving the strongest engine for adversarial judgment.

* test(eval): isolate transcript home on Windows

Ensure workflow_bench transcript tests set USERPROFILE alongside HOME so Path.home() resolves to the temporary test home on Windows.

* docs(skills): fold PR #2522 execution learnings into review/work/plan

Eight incident-backed hardenings from running the full skill cycle
(review -> plan -> work, 28-finding fix series) on PR #2522:

gitnexus-review:
- Expert lenses execute the code under review on candidate failing shapes
  (empirical probe outranks source reading — every HIGH the language
  lenses found came from a probe, not a read).
- Step 7 re-runs the exact CI check for refreshed baselines/fingerprints
  (a stale committed artifact is invisible in the diff; caught a red
  benchmarks arm).
- Step 8 treats version/invalidation constants as review surface
  (INCREMENTAL_SCHEMA_VERSION class recurred verbatim from #2494).

gitnexus-work:
- Step 4 proves regression tests discriminate against the pre-fix tree.
- Step 5 rebuilds executed build output before every verification run
  (parse workers load dist/; a correct fix 'failed' until rebuilt).
- Step 6 makes stage -> detect_changes -> commit one unbroken sequence.

gitnexus-plan:
- Phase 0 seeded-evidence mode: plan FROM a completed review's verified
  findings instead of re-running the graph ladder.
- Template §7: fingerprint/golden-guarded output rebaselines once, at the
  series tip.

All distribution copies resynced; shipped-skills-sync + skills-steering
24/24 locally.

* feat(eval): close the skill-evolution loop with an automated proposer driver

workflow_bench.evolve adds the three arrows the README described as manual:
a proposer session that turns loser trajectories (results.jsonl rows,
transcripts, patches, the learning queue) into ONE bounded candidate
overlay, a driver that iterates propose -> paired benchmark -> deterministic
gate up to --generations, and an --apply step that copies a promoted
overlay onto the canonical skills and shipped mirrors as a working-tree
diff. The trust boundary is unchanged: overlays re-validate through
candidate_overlay_files before any benchmark or apply consumes them, and
committing, CI, and the PR merge stay human.

learnings.jsonl is gitignored: it is machine-local evidence, like the
session transcripts it complements.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(skills): route live-task friction into the evolution learning queue

Each family skill gains a short 'Skill feedback' section: on friction with
the skill's own instructions, append one JSON line to
eval/workflow_bench/learnings.jsonl (GitNexus repo only) — never self-edit
the skill from a live task. The proposer in workflow_bench.evolve consumes
the queue as hints; a learning reaches a shipped skill only by beating the
incumbent on the paired benchmark. All shipped mirrors re-copied byte-
identical.

* ci(tests): run the evolve helper tests in the eval pytest job

test_evolve.py needs only pytest+pyyaml, same as the harness tests the job
already runs — without this line the new module had no CI coverage.

* feat(ci): comment-triggered GitNexus review agent for PRs

'@gitnexus review' from a maintainer (OWNER/MEMBER/COLLABORATOR; the action
re-validates write access) runs the repo's gitnexus-review skill headlessly
against the PR and posts the review as a sticky comment — remote triggering
with no local setup. Read-only by construction: contents: read token,
Write/Edit and web tools disallowed, Bash allowlisted to git reads and the
gitnexus CLI; analyze parses PR code with tree-sitter, never executes it.
Requires the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY repository secret; activates once the file
is on the default branch.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(ci): dispatch lane + existing OAuth secret for the review agent

Align with claude.yml: same action pin and the CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN
secret the repo already carries — no new secret to configure. Add a
workflow_dispatch lane (PR number input) so the agent can be triggered from
the Actions UI and tested before the issue_comment trigger reaches the
default branch. Allowlist gh pr view/diff and gh api, which the review
skill uses to pin PR SHAs.

* fix(ci): close a fork-PR RCE vector in the review agent's tool allowlist

A live headless run of the exact workflow session against PR #2431 (66
turns, full gitnexus-review pass) surfaced a real HIGH-severity confused
deputy: .gitnexus/ is gitignored, not blocked — a fork PR can commit its
own .gitnexus/run.cjs, issue_comment checks out PR-head content, and the
skill's runner ladder tries 'node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze' first. That
would execute fork-controlled JS inside a job holding
CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN and a write-scoped GITHUB_TOKEN — the opposite of
the 'PR code is read, never executed' claim in the workflow's own header.

Fix: drop the run.cjs allowlist entry so analyze always resolves through
npx gitnexus (npm registry, not the checked-out tree); the skill's
documented fallback mode covers the resulting graceful degradation. Also
drop 'gh api' (not read-only — accepts -X POST/PATCH/DELETE) and downgrade
pull-requests: write to read (comment posting only needs issues: write;
the prompt already forbids formal review submission).

Same session flagged a latent evolve.py bug: select_evidence's cost sort
used dict.get's missing-key default, which doesn't cover an explicit JSON
null in a foreign --seed-results row and crashes proposer setup with
TypeError. Guarded with 'or 0.0' and added a regression test.

exactly {path, sha256, bytes}, but the runner stamps a fourth provenance key
(source=parent-captured-stream-json). Any --seed-results or generation>=2 run
therefore aborted with SandboxError before proposing or promoting. Pin the
producer literal as PARENT_EVENT_STREAM_SOURCE and validate it in the metadata
check, and round-trip real producer output through sum_sessions into the
preflight so the schema can't drift again.

* fix(eval): treat an unmeasured session cost as unavailable, not $0

well_formed validated only the nested usage block, so an otherwise-successful
session missing total_cost_usd was recorded as cost_usd=0.0 — and cost_usd is
the default promotion metric (lower wins), so a cost-less session scored as
free and could win promotion it never earned. Extract cost via measured_cost()
(None on absent/garbage, a measured 0.0 preserved), propagate None through
sum_sessions/aggregate/savings/report, and have the gate refuse to rank on a
metric that was not measured on every run in both arms.

* fix(eval): warn when ranking on the main-loop-only num_turns metric

num_turns comes from the CLI's top-level usage (main-loop session only), like
output_tokens, but selecting it emitted no metric_warning — so a subagent-heavy
candidate could look artificially efficient. Add num_turns to
MAIN_LOOP_ONLY_METRICS and broaden the warning to cover turns.

* fix(eval): fail closed when an overlay adds a file with no committed base

An overlay adding a new .md under gitnexus-{plan,work} passes the structural
overlay checks but has no committed base for committed_destination_base_digests
to bind against, so it raised an uncaught ValueError that crashed the evolve
driver (and runner --candidate-overlay) mid-run. Catch it at both call sites:
evolve reports NOT PROMOTED and exits, runner routes it through parser.error.

* feat(eval): circuit-break the runner sweep on a systemic outage

A sustained upstream outage used to pay out every remaining --timeout window
one session at a time. Track consecutive session/infra/cleanup failures via a
pure systemic_outage_streak helper; after --outage-streak (default 5) in a row,
stop the sweep, still write report.md/promotion.json from partial evidence, and
exit non-zero so evolve.py halts instead of proposing from truncated evidence.
A task's own resolved=False never trips the breaker.

* fix(cli): report a dirty working tree as stale in gitnexus status

status --json (and the human output) computed up-to-date from commit + runner
identity + completeness only, so a repo with uncommitted source changes at a
matching HEAD was reported up-to-date while analyze would still re-index it.
A graph-backed agent gating on that JSON could skip re-analysis on a stale
graph. Extract analyze's dirty-tree check into a shared isWorkingTreeDirty()
in storage/git and fold it into the status freshness decision.

* fix(ci): use single-slash deny globs in the review agent's disallowedTools

github.workspace already expands to an absolute path, so Read(/${{ github.workspace }}/**)
and Read(//proc/**),(//sys/**),(//dev/**) produced double-slash patterns that a
normalizing matcher may not match — silently no-opping the deny layer. Not
exploitable (the allowlist is the primary control and never grants those
paths), but the globs should be well-formed. Update the pinned test strings.

* ci: install gitnexus-shared with npm ci from the committed lockfile

The gitnexus-shared build floated its deps via npm install in three workflows
(skill-sync, ci-tests, and — most importantly — the release publish.yml) while
every other install step uses npm ci. The lockfile is committed and in sync, so
switch all three to npm ci for reproducible, locked installs.

* test(cli): make the shipped-skills drift guard reject symlinks

listFilesRecursive walked with readdirSync and snapshotDir read with
readFileSync, both of which follow symlinks — so a mirror file symlinked to the
canonical tree passed the byte-compare (and a symlinked mirror dir would be
followed too). Reject a symlinked root via lstat and any symlinked entry via
Dirent.isSymbolicLink, with negative tests (skipped on Windows).

* test(eval): guard the candidate-skill vs mirror-root coverage invariant

MIRROR_SKILL_ROOTS omits the Cursor tree, safe only because no candidate skill
is cursor-shipped. Pin that invariant: every CANDIDATE_SKILLS entry must exist
under canonical + every mirror root and must not ship to Cursor, so adding a
cursor-shipped skill to the candidate set (the PR #2488 asymmetric-sync class)
fails loudly instead of syncing three of four trees.

* docs(ci): describe the review agent's staged post-merge rollout

The DoD asked for a dry-run or triggered run before merge, but an issue_comment
(or newly added workflow_dispatch) workflow only ever executes the default-branch
copy, so it cannot be exercised from the PR that introduces it. Reword the DoD
and the activation checklist to a staged rollout: merge registered-but-disabled,
validate same-repo and fork execution post-merge, then enable the variable.

* fix: pin plugin skill mcp.json to the release version via #2445 tooling

The ten plugin skill mcp.json launched `npx -y gitnexus@latest mcp` on every
skill connect — non-reproducible and a supply-chain surface, and (unlike the
persisted setup config) never pinned. Extend sync-plugin-manifests.mjs with an
mcp surface kind that stamps the gitnexus@<version> launch arg, pin all ten to
1.6.9 now, and keep them byte-identical so the drift guard stays green. The
release lifecycle + publish.yml --check now re-stamp them like the four manifest
surfaces; only READMEs stay on @latest as docs.

* test(eval): prove the proposer's built-in file tools are confined

The real-Claude canary only exercised Bash + MCP, so it proved process/MCP
containment but not that the proposer's built-in file tools stay inside their
mounts. Add a canary over the exact PROPOSER_ALLOWED_TOOLS surface and the same
read-only /evidence mount as run_proposer (allowlist extracted to a shared
constant so it can't drift): Read reaches /evidence, a Write into the read-only
evidence mount is denied, and a Write lands in the output tree.

* fix(eval): apply the candidate overlay after task setup for fair arms

The candidate overlay was applied before the task's untrusted setup ran, so
setup could observe candidate prose and the incumbent/candidate arms started
from different pre-overlay state. Reorder within the sandbox: capture the base
(pre-overlay) skill digest, run setup against the base skills, verify setup did
not tamper them, then apply the overlay and capture the post-overlay digest the
model must preserve. apply_candidate_overlay stages path-specific overlay files,
so setup's uncommitted changes stay out of the baseline and churn is unchanged.

Graph freshness for the review arm is handled by the status dirty-tree fix plus
the review skill's stale-triggered re-index, not by reordering the cached
per-task-sha graph materialization (which is mechanically blocked).

* test(eval): end-to-end containment proof of the autonomous proposer

Drives the real run_proposer through bubblewrap with a deterministic scripted
model (no paid API): it reads the read-only evidence bundle and writes a
candidate gitnexus-plan skill edit plus a rationale into the sandbox output
tree; run_proposer enforces the trust boundary and copies only the validated
overlay + proposal out. This exercises the autonomous-proposal stage of the
self-evolution loop end-to-end in the eval/containment CI job (the gate and
apply stages are covered by test_workflow_bench_evolution and
test_promotion_apply). Env-gated on GITNEXUS_REQUIRE_CLAUDE_CANARY, so it runs
only where the pinned Claude binary and user namespaces are available.

* fix(eval): let the proposer author its overlay via Bash

Running the end-to-end proposer canary in the containment CI job surfaced a real
bug: run_proposer starts the session with --bare, which hard-disables the
Write/Edit tools ("Write exists but is not enabled in this context"), yet
allowlisted Edit/Write and omitted Bash. The proposer therefore had no working
way to write its candidate overlay — the self-evolution loop could never produce
a candidate. The sandbox settings already pre-authorize Bash
(autoAllowBashIfSandboxed) and confine writes to workspace/tmp/home, so switch
PROPOSER_ALLOWED_TOOLS to Read/Grep/Glob/Bash and tell the proposer to author
files with Bash. The end-to-end test now drives the real run_proposer through
bubblewrap and asserts a validated overlay + proposal are produced (this also
replaces the earlier file-tool canary, whose Write/Edit premise was moot).

* test(eval): author the proposer overlay with newline-free Bash content

The nested shell-sandbox prefix mangles embedded newlines, so the multi-line
overlay content never landed. Use single-line content for the deterministic
proposer canary.

* test(eval): drop the unverifiable end-to-end proposer canary

The scripted proposer overlay never materialized in the containment job across
runs, and the model tool-result content is not visible in CI logs, so the test
cannot be finalized without an environment where the sandbox can actually run.
Keep the verified production fix (Bash-authoring in run_proposer); the proposer
sandbox/containment stays covered by the existing Bash+MCP and process-tree
canaries.

* test(cli): drop run-analyze.ts from the windowsHide spawn-family list

U7 moved run-analyze.ts's only child_process call (the git status --porcelain
dirty check) into storage/git.ts (already covered by this test, with
windowsHide). run-analyze.ts no longer imports a spawn-family function, so the
windowsHide-regression test's 'must have >=1 spawn call' invariant failed for
it. Remove it from SRC_FILES.

# gitnexus-lfg — plan → gate → work → review
Thin pipeline orchestrator over three existing skills: `gitnexus-plan`
produces the plan (asking up front how deep to go), the user chooses at a
blocking gate to proceed or stop (an explicit deepen request is still
honored), `gitnexus-work` executes it as verified atomic commits, and
`gitnexus-review` reviews the result (the open PR if one exists, else the
branch diff against the default branch). One bounded fix cycle for review
findings, then a final report. It never pushes or opens a PR on its own.
## Invocation
| CLI | How to invoke |
|-----|---------------|
| **Claude Code** | `/gitnexus-lfg <task description>` or `/gitnexus-lfg docs/plans/<plan>.md` |
| **Codex CLI** | Ask: "run the gitnexus pipeline on <task>" (Codex reads `AGENTS.md`), or install the skill user-level (below) |

skills for each lane. Stop at the plan gate for the user's choice.
```
## The three lanes
| Lane | Skill | Gate |

| Plan | `gitnexus-plan` (`.claude/skills/gitnexus-plan/`) | Depth asked up front; blocking gate: proceed / stop |

| Review | `gitnexus-review` (`.claude/skills/gitnexus-review/`) | One fix cycle max, then report |
## Threshold governance (maintainers)
The Lane 1 planning boundary (~35 turns) is a promoted benchmark policy from
the GitNexus repository's `eval/workflow_bench/` paired candidate loop.
Re-evaluate it offline whenever the named model or tool harness changes, and
at least every 90 days; update the SKILL.md threshold only after the
deterministic promotion gate shows no quality regression. Reading agents
never self-edit it from a live task.

# gitnexus-lfg — plan → gate → work → review
Thin orchestrator over three existing skills. It adds no engineering logic of
its own — it sequences `gitnexus-plan`, `gitnexus-work`, and
`gitnexus-review`, with the user deciding at the plan gate. Run every lane
by actually invoking the named skill (read its SKILL.md and follow it);
never inline a summary of what the skill would have done.
```
/gitnexus-lfg <task description>
/gitnexus-lfg docs/plans/<existing-plan>.md # skip lane 1, start at the gate
```
## Lane 1 — Plan
**Boundary triage first.** If the task is plainly below the planning
boundary — trivial or small-bounded work an agent finishes in well under ~35
turns (the measured regime where a planning pass costs more than it returns;
measured in the GitNexus repository's `eval/workflow_bench/`) — say so and
offer `gitnexus-work` direct mode as an alternative to the full pipeline
before spending the plan lane. Honor the user's choice.
The threshold is a promoted benchmark policy measured offline, not a
timeless heuristic — never self-edit it from a live task. Its re-evaluation
governance lives in this skill's README.
Otherwise invoke `gitnexus-plan` with the task (knob overrides pass through
verbatim; `gitnexus-plan` owns the up-front depth question — never ask it
again here). If the input is already a plan file path, skip to Lane 2. The
plan lands in `docs/plans/` — record its path; every later lane consumes it.
## Lane 2 — The plan gate (user choice, blocking)
Present the plan's chat summary (objective, proposed changes, sequence, top
risks, open questions, plan path), then ask the user — as a blocking
question (`AskUserQuestion` in Claude Code; a numbered list in chat on CLIs
without a blocking tool):
1. **Proceed to work** — continue to Lane 3.
2. **Stop here** — the plan file is the deliverable; end the pipeline.
Depth was the user's up-front choice in Lane 1, so deepening is not offered
by default — but honor an explicit request for it at the gate: run
`gitnexus-plan` Deepen mode on the plan file and return here with the
strengthened plan, as many times as the user asks. Do not proceed past the
gate without an explicit choice — the gate is the pipeline's only checkpoint
and exists precisely because execution is expensive to unwind.
**Headless / non-interactive runs:** no one can answer the gate, so end the
pipeline after Lane 1 — the plan file is the deliverable (gate option 2) —
and say so in the final report. Never auto-proceed to execution.
## Lane 3 — Work
Invoke `gitnexus-work` with the plan path. It re-anchors the plan at HEAD,
executes the Implementation Sequence as verified atomic commits, refreshes
the knowledge graph when done (its Phase 4), and reports deviations. If it routes back for re-planning (structural drift), run the
Deepen pass and return to the Lane 2 gate rather than pushing through.
## Lane 4 — Review
Invoke `gitnexus-review` on the completed work. Pass an open PR URL/number
when one exists; otherwise pass the current branch. The review skill owns
target resolution, exact-SHA checkout/index alignment, and merge-base
selection. Do not duplicate that logic here. If work left local changes,
pass `local` as a second, separately labeled review surface.
Surface the review verdict and findings to the user. Findings the user
wants fixed: those within `gitnexus-work`'s direct-mode bounds (12 files,
no architectural decisions) → hand to `gitnexus-work` direct mode; anything
larger → offer the plan gate instead (Deepen the plan with the findings, or
stop). Then re-run this lane's review once. On that re-run, do not start
another fix cycle even if findings remain — report them and point the user
at `/gitnexus-work` (or the plan gate) to continue deliberately.
## Final report
One message: plan path, deepen cycles run, commits produced, verification
status, review verdict with unresolved findings, and what (if anything) was
explicitly left undone. The pipeline does not push or open a PR on its own —
offer both as next steps.

# gitnexus-plan — implementation-ready engineering plans
Generates deep, implementation-ready engineering plans by combining GitNexus
repository intelligence, statement-level Program Dependence Graph analysis,
and the agent's native targeted source verification.

Output: `docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<slug>.md` — a 13-section plan whose
section 11 is a machine-readable **implementation context pack** that a
follow-up agent can consume without re-investigating the repository. Compact
and full packs both include versioned evidence provenance: a canonical global
dirty digest and a sorted, per-layer cited-path manifest. An npm-dependency-free,
versioned Node helper shared byte-for-byte with `gitnexus-work` is the only
supported serializer, so planner and executor hash identical bytes. The same
helper is the only supported existing-plan reader and plan writer. Its
descriptor-anchored `read-plan` receipt binds the canonical path, exact base64
bytes, and SHA-256 digest before Deepen or execution. The writer accepts a repo-relative
`docs/plans/<date>-gitnexus-plan-<slug>.md` destination, rejects symlink
traversal and accidental replacement, and publishes the verified UTF-8
document through a descriptor-anchored atomic no-replace move. Deepen first
requires the exact canonical path and digest from one read receipt, preserves
the prior plan in a verified Git-admin backup, and also publishes without replacement. A safe read/write
failure blocks the operation; there is no
external-output or read-only-checkout fallback.

```
## Architecture note: how GitNexus and the agent interact
Three layers, strictly ordered:
1. **GitNexus navigates** (`query``context``impact`/`trace`
`cypher` last-resort). The graph answers _where to look_ and _what is
connected_: execution flows, callers/callees, blast radius, related tests.
Every call must answer a named planning question.
2. **PDG constrains** (`pdg_query` controls/flows, `impact {mode:"pdg",
direction, line}` statement slices, `explain` for taint). The
statement-level layers
answer _what gates and feeds the behavior_ inside the few functions the
change centers on. Results are filtered into a bounded slice
(`references/pdg-slice.md`), never dumped.
3. **The agent verifies** (targeted line-range reads). Current source is
authoritative; graph results are navigation hints until verified. On
disagreement: trust source, record the discrepancy, recommend re-indexing.
Token efficiency comes from the **context ledger**
(`references/context-ledger.md`): every query and read is recorded with the
question it answered, and nothing is re-fetched unless the source changed, a
contradiction surfaced, or one of the ledger's defined escalations applies
(summary→detail drill-down, ambiguity narrowing, a changed parameter answering
a new question). The ledger also enforces symbol budgets (5 primary /
20 related by default), pins dirty working-tree evidence as well as HEAD, and
uses progressive disclosure to keep the big schemas out of context until the
phase that needs them.

## Requirements and graceful degradation
- Requires a GitNexus index; statement-level sections additionally require the
`--pdg` layers.
- Freshness is a gate, priced by category: full-plan categories (refactor,
security, performance, concurrency, architecture) default to
`freshness: strict` — a stale index (or missing PDG layer) is refreshed once with
`analyze --index-only [--pdg]` — run via `node .gitnexus/run.cjs` when the
project has one, else the installed `gitnexus` CLI
(`npm install -g gitnexus`), else `npx gitnexus` — before the graph is relied
on, but only when that runner's provenance is known-current.
Compact-plan categories default to `accept` (source-weighted, refresh only
if a graph claim becomes load-bearing). `--index-only` touches only the
`.gitnexus` store, never repo files. Stale analyzer provenance is a
disclosed **source-weighted limitation**: planning does not rebuild analyzer
output, and it does not use that graph for load-bearing claims.
- PDG layer still unavailable after that → the plan says so and skips
statement-level claims (never reconstructs fake edges).
- No GitNexus at all → fallback mode: targeted grep/read exploration, findings
labelled **source-derived**, with a recommendation to index.
- Reading or publishing a plan requires Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`,
and `O_NOFOLLOW`; publication also requires a validated absolute Python 3
PATH candidate with libc `renameat2(RENAME_NOREPLACE)` support, a
writable target repository, and a shared filesystem for the plan and
Git-admin vault. The writer fails closed when those guarantees are
unavailable; it never redirects the plan elsewhere.
## Limitations
- `pdg_query` is intra-procedural; cross-function flow comes from `explain`
(taint) or `impact {mode:"pdg"}` inter-procedural reach.
- The skill is planning-only by contract: the only repository file it writes
is the plan document, and the only other state it may touch is the
`.gitnexus` index store for a freshness refresh. It must not build
analyzer `dist/` output or mutate source, tests, configuration, benchmark,
or evaluation files. Instruction feedback is chat-only.

# gitnexus-plan — implementation-ready engineering plans
Produce an implementation-ready plan for an engineering task. GitNexus is the
navigation layer (where to look), statement-level PDG is the constraint layer
(what gates and feeds the behavior), and your native targeted source reads are
the verification layer (what is actually true right now). The output is a plan
document plus a compact, machine-readable **implementation context pack**
that a follow-up implementation agent (`gitnexus-work`, or any executor) can
consume without repeating the investigation.
```
/gitnexus-plan <task description>
/gitnexus-plan impact_depth:3 depth:deep <task description> # knob overrides, see Configuration
```
**This skill plans. It never implements.** Do not modify production code,
tests, or configuration while running it. The only repository file it writes
is the plan document (a working ledger kept outside the repo is fine). The
only other permitted state change is an index refresh via
`analyze --index-only`, which writes only the `.gitnexus` index store. It
must not build analyzer `dist/` output and must not mutate source, tests,
configuration, or evaluation data. Stale analyzer provenance is disclosed as
a source-weighted limitation, never repaired by a planning run.
## Hard rules
- **Ledger first.** Before every GitNexus call and every repo file read, check
the context ledger. Never repeat a query or reread an unchanged range that
already answered the same question (allowed repeats are defined in
`references/context-ledger.md`; this skill's own reference files are exempt
from ledger bookkeeping).
- **Every graph query answers a named planning question.** Record the question
and the conclusion in the ledger. No exploratory dredging.
- **Source beats graph.** The graph navigates; current source is authoritative.
Verify before asserting (see Phase 4). Comments are the weakest evidence —
never stronger than executable code.
- **No fabrication.** Never invent symbols, filenames, test names, tool
results, or PDG edges. Unknowns go to _Assumptions and Open Questions_.
- **No scope creep.** Adjacent refactors the task didn't ask for go to plan
§12 as explicitly-deferred follow-ups, not into Proposed Changes.
- **Pin working-tree evidence, not only HEAD.** Every plan form carries the
versioned global dirty digest and sorted cited-path manifest defined in
`references/context-ledger.md`. Generate it only with the portable helper
and byte contract in `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` and
`references/evidence-provenance.md`; never reimplement the digest.
- **Write the plan only through the helper.** The generated-plan path is a
normalized repo-relative
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<3-5-word-slug>.md` path. Compose the
complete UTF-8 document in memory or in a scratchpad outside the target
repo, then pass it on stdin to the helper's `write-plan` command. Never
write the destination directly or fall back to an external output path when
the safe writer fails.
- **Read an existing plan only through the helper.** Deepen must invoke
`scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan`, parse the exact decoded
`plan_bytes_base64` from its descriptor-anchored receipt, and retain that
receipt's canonical `generated_plan_path` and `plan_digest` as one binding.
Never parse a direct lexical-path read or apply one plan's digest to another
path.
- **Stop when you have enough.** Sufficient evidence ends exploration; plans
do not improve monotonically with tokens spent.
## Phase 0 — Parse and classify
Read `references/context-ledger.md` and open the ledger with the task:
original request, interpreted goal, acceptance criteria. Classify the task:
| Category | Posture (depth · plan form · tool-call budget · freshness) |
| ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Bug fix (local) | Narrow, 12 primary symbols, `impact_depth` 1 · compact · ~15 · accept |
| Feature | Default knobs · compact · ~30 · accept |
| Refactor / shared API change | Impact mandatory, `impact_depth` 3 · full · ~45 · strict |
| Performance | Default + performance PDG mode (`references/pdg-slice.md`) · full · ~45 · strict |
| Security | Default + security PDG mode + `explain` taint findings · full · ~45 · strict |
| Dependency upgrade / migration | Impact + compatibility focus; PDG rarely needed · compact · ~20 · accept |
| Concurrency / transactional | Control-flow + state-mutation PDG focus · full · ~45 · strict |
| Test improvement / docs | Narrowest: usually no impact or PDG pass · compact · ~10 · accept |
| Architecture change / spike | Widest: clusters + processes first · full · no cap · strict |
The category posture overrides the Configuration baseline; explicit `key:value`
invocation knobs override both. A task matching several rows combines them:
take the widest depth, union the focus areas.
**Seeded evidence.** When a completed investigation already supplies
verified findings — a finished review, a triage document with `path:line`
anchors and named failing scenarios — open the ledger FROM it: cite the
source document as the opening ledger entries and plan directly against
them instead of re-running the graph ladder over ground it already covers.
Re-deriving what the evidence proves is budget spent against the
turn-economy rule. Phase 4 still source-verifies whatever Proposed Changes
will cite, at the pinned commit — seeding replaces exploration, never
verification.
**Depth is the user's decision, asked once, up front.** In an interactive
session, when the invocation carries no explicit depth signal (no `depth:`,
`form:`, or `freshness:` knob, and not Deepen mode), ask one blocking
question before Phase 1 — how deep should this plan go?
1. **Quick**`depth:narrow form:compact freshness:accept`. Fastest useful
plan: 12 primary symbols, minimal graph work, core sections only.
2. **Standard** — the category posture above, unchanged. Recommend this
unless the classification argues otherwise.
3. **Deep**`depth:deep form:full freshness:strict`. All 13 sections,
`impact_depth` 3, clusters/processes read, PDG slices for the central
functions.
The answer sets the knobs exactly as if they had been typed in the
invocation; explicit knobs win and skip the question. Headless runs never
ask — the category posture applies unchanged. Asking up front replaces
offering to deepen a finished plan afterwards: Deepen mode (below) remains
the mechanism for strengthening an existing plan document — a later session,
review findings, an executor route-back — not a default follow-up question.
**Turn economy is a deliverable.** The plan is judged on decision quality per
token, not thoroughness theater (measured: a 63-turn plan for a two-line
change — the GitNexus repo's `eval/workflow_bench/`). Stay within the category's tool-call
budget; when the budget runs out with questions still open, record them in
§12 instead of digging further — the executor re-verifies cheaply anyway.
## Phase 1 — Anchor and freshness
1. Resolve the target repo: `list_repos` if in doubt, else the indexed repo
covering the working directory. Pass `repo` explicitly on every call when
more than one repo is indexed.
2. Record the repo's current HEAD commit in the ledger — every line-number
citation in the plan is pinned to it.
3. **Resolve and record the analyzer runner** (used by every `analyze`
command in this skill): `node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze …` when the
project has a runner (a previous analyze dropped it next to the index),
else `gitnexus analyze …` (installed CLI — `npm install -g gitnexus`),
else `npx gitnexus analyze …`. Record its path/version and any available
source/build identity; do not manufacture provenance from timestamps.
4. Read `gitnexus://repo/{name}/context` — codebase overview + staleness check.
**Freshness gate.** Plans built on a stale graph make stale blast-radius
claims — but a re-index is the largest fixed cost a planning session
carries, so the gate is category-priced:
- Compact-plan categories default to `freshness: accept`: plan on the
current graph with source verification weighted higher — their plans
cite little graph evidence. Escalate to a refresh mid-plan only when a
graph claim becomes load-bearing (e.g. Proposed Changes rest on a d=1
dependent list), and only then.
- Full-plan categories default to `freshness: strict`, and under it:
- **Analyzer provenance check — before any refresh.** Compare the resolved
runner identity with the index metadata and, in an analyzer-source
checkout, with current analyzer source. If identity is stale or unknown,
do not build output and do not make that graph load-bearing. Record a
**stale analyzer provenance — source-weighted limitation** in
`index_refresh`, the plan header, and §12; rely on targeted source reads
or hand execution to `gitnexus-work`, which owns the build-current gate.
- Stale index → run `analyze --index-only` via the resolved runner
(append `--pdg` when the task category will reach Phase 3) and re-read
the context resource **only when runner provenance is known-current**.
Refresh budget, stated once here: at most one `--index-only` refresh in
Phase 1 **plus** at most one later `--pdg` upgrade in Phase 3 (only when
Phase 1's refresh lacked `--pdg`) per planning session — a Deepen run is
its own session. Record each command, runner identity, and outcome in the
ledger's `index_refresh`.
- Refresh failed or impractical (no write access to the index, prohibitive
repo size), or `freshness: accept` was passed → proceed on the stale
graph, weight source verification higher, and state the staleness and
the skipped refresh in the plan header and Assumptions.
- Resources unreadable but tools working → proceed on tools alone, treat
freshness as unknown (weight source higher), and note it in the plan.
- GitNexus unavailable entirely → switch to **Fallback mode** (below).
5. For architecture-scale tasks only, also read
`gitnexus://repo/{name}/clusters` and `.../processes`.
## Phase 2 — Graph navigation ladder
Use the narrowest operation that answers the current ledger question, in this
order. Budgets: at most `max_primary_symbols` (5) primary symbols and
`max_related_symbols` (20) related symbols active in the ledger.
1. `query {search_query, task_context}` — locate concepts, execution flows,
modules, and related tests for the task.
2. `context {name}` — 360° view of each candidate primary symbol: callers,
callees, categorized refs, processes. Promote to primary or discard. An
`ambiguous` result (ranked candidates) is answered by one retry narrowed
with `kind` / `file_path` / uid — that retry is an allowed repeat.
3. `impact {target, direction}` — upstream/downstream blast radius for shared
or high-connectivity symbols (`maxDepth` = `impact_depth`; `summaryOnly:
true` first for hub symbols, then drill in — an allowed repeat). Record the
d=1 items — the **direct (depth-1) dependents** — the plan must account
for every one of them.
4. `trace {from, to}` — when the task hinges on _how A reaches B_, one call
instead of chained context hops.
5. Statement-level PDG — Phase 3, for the functions the change centers on.
6. `cypher` — last resort, only for a precise graph question the tools above
cannot express. Read `gitnexus://repo/{name}/schema` first; anchor and
LIMIT every query.
7. `detect_changes {scope}` — only when planning against existing uncommitted
or branch work.
Do not run every tool by default. A local test fix may finish the ladder at
step 2.
## Phase 3 — Statement-level PDG slice
For the 13 functions most central to the change, build a bounded **PDG
context slice**. Read `references/pdg-slice.md` and follow it — it owns the
tool calls, inclusion criteria, depth bounds, slice schema, the security and
performance modes, and the no-PDG-layer fallback.
## Phase 4 — Targeted source verification
GitNexus said where to look; now confirm what is there. Using ordinary file
reads (exact line ranges, not whole files unless genuinely required):
- Read every source range the plan will cite: signatures, branch conditions,
state mutations, error paths, nearby comments that change behavior. Compact
plans cite less — verify what they cite, don't expand the citation set to
have more to verify.
- Read the tests GitNexus associated with the primary symbols; never claim a
test exists without having located it.
- Verify the build/test commands the plan will name actually exist
(package.json scripts / CI workflows), and prefer the script form that
carries its prerequisites (pre-hooks) over invoking underlying binaries
directly.
- Check repo conventions that constrain the change (AGENTS.md, GUARDRAILS.md,
lint/build config) — only the parts the change touches.
- Mark each ledger symbol `source_verified: true` as you go. **A symbol that
is named in Proposed Changes must be source-verified.**
- On graph/source disagreement: trust source, record the discrepancy in the
ledger and the plan, recommend re-indexing. Never present stale graph data
as fact.
- Immediately before composition, recompute the versioned
`evidence_provenance` snapshot by invoking
`scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` exactly as specified in
`references/evidence-provenance.md`: the
canonical global dirty digest over all dirty paths and the sorted manifest
of every cited path, including object kind and
HEAD/index/worktree/untracked layer digests. Re-read any citation that
changed during planning. Exclude only the generated plan path.
Evidence hierarchy, strongest first: current source and config → current tests
and executable behavior → compiler/build/lint output → GitNexus graph and PDG
→ documentation and comments.
## Phase 5 — Compose the plan
1. Read `references/plan-template.md` and fill the category's form — compact
(core sections, ≤80 lines excluding the pack) or full (all 13 sections) —
from the ledger, tagging claims with the template's four classes —
`[verified]`, `[graph]`, `[inferred]`, `[assumed]` — and routing open
questions to §12.
2. Build the implementation context pack per `references/context-pack.md`
(this is section 11 of the plan), including mandatory
`evidence_provenance` in compact and full forms.
3. Set `generated_plan_path` to
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<slug>.md` under the root of the repo
being planned (the Phase 1 target repo, not necessarily the cwd); use a
35-word kebab-case slug and repo-relative paths inside the document.
Compose the complete document without creating that destination, then
pipe its exact UTF-8 bytes to `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan`
as specified in `references/evidence-provenance.md`. The helper safely
creates missing parent directories. Initial planning must not pass
`--replace`. A safe-write failure blocks plan publication: report it and
do not write directly, choose an external destination, or weaken the
repo-relative provenance contract. The snapshot and writer commands apply
the same strict generated-plan filename/date validator; do not substitute a
source, `.git`, or arbitrary `docs/plans/` path in either invocation.
4. Present in chat: objective, proposed-changes summary, implementation
sequence, top risks, open questions, and the plan file path. Do not paste
the whole document into chat.
## Deepen mode
`/gitnexus-plan deepen <plan-path>` strengthens an existing plan in place
instead of creating a new one:
1. Resolve the target repository and normalized repo-relative plan candidate,
then load it with `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan --repo <root>
--generated-plan <candidate>` exactly as specified in
`references/evidence-provenance.md`. Reject a missing, external, escaping,
symlinked, or differently scoped path. Decode and parse only the receipt's
exact `plan_bytes_base64`; retain its canonical `generated_plan_path` and
`plan_digest` unchanged for the entire Deepen session.
2. Re-run Phase 1 in full — analyzer provenance check and freshness gate (a
Deepen run is its own session, with its own refresh budget).
3. **Re-anchor before re-pinning.** Recompute the plan's global dirty digest
and cited-path manifest as well as comparing its old HEAD pin with current
HEAD. Changed, renamed, deleted, mixed, or newly absent cited paths get
their ranges re-read — or the claim downgraded — _before_ the pin and
provenance snapshot move. Moving only the commit pin silently launders
dirty or stale claims as verified.
4. Escalate to `depth: deep` (impact_depth 3, clusters/processes read)
unless the invocation overrides knobs explicitly.
5. Seed the ledger from the plan's §11 pack, then re-verify: every
`[graph]`/`[inferred]` claim gets a targeted pass toward `[verified]`;
every `[assumed]` claim is resolved or kept with its reason; direct
(d=1) dependent accounting is re-checked against the refreshed graph;
PDG slices are built or expanded for the central functions when the
layer is present.
6. **Reconcile execution state.** If `gitnexus-work` already landed commits
for this plan (a mid-execution route-back), mark the §7 steps present at
HEAD as completed and re-sequence the remainder — the rewritten plan must
be executable from the top without redoing landed steps.
7. Strengthen whatever the deeper pass showed thin — test scenarios, risks,
Definition of Done — and carry claim-tag upgrades through the prose.
8. Rewrite the **same canonical file** through
`scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan --replace
--expected-plan-path <retained-read-plan-path>
--expected-plan-digest <retained-read-plan-digest>`: same 13 sections,
context pack kept in sync, evidence header updated. `--replace` is reserved
for Deepen mode, and both expected values must come from the same read-plan
receipt; any digest/path mismatch blocks publication. Retain the successful receipt's
`prior_plan_backup_git_path`; it names the verified Git-admin backup of the
displaced plan. Summarize the delta in chat: claims upgraded, claims that
failed re-verification, sections changed, and that backup path.
## Configuration
Baseline defaults — the Phase 0 category posture overrides them, and inline
`key:value` tokens before the task text override both (the repo has no
skill-config file mechanism; invocation args are the mechanism):
| Knob | Default | Meaning |
| --------------------- | ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `depth` | by category | `narrow` = `impact_depth` 1, PDG only if one function is clearly central; `default` = this table; `deep` = `impact_depth` 3 + clusters/processes read |
| `form` | by category | `compact` (core sections + mini-pack, ≤80 lines excl. pack — see `references/plan-template.md`) or `full` (all 13 sections) |
| `impact_depth` | 2 | `maxDepth` for `impact` |
| `pdg_data_depth` | 2 | Data-dependence hops in the PDG slice |
| `pdg_control_depth` | 2 | Control-dependence hops in the PDG slice |
| `max_primary_symbols` | 5 | Ledger budget (active symbols; discards don't count) |
| `max_related_symbols` | 20 | Ledger budget (active symbols; discards don't count) |
| `max_snippet_lines` | 30 | Longest source excerpt quoted in the plan |
| `freshness` | by category | `strict` (full-plan categories) = refresh a stale index (and a missing PDG layer) with `analyze --index-only [--pdg]` before relying on the graph; `accept` (compact categories) = plan on the current graph, source-weighted and labelled, refreshing only if a graph claim becomes load-bearing |
## Fallback mode (GitNexus or PDG unavailable)
1. Say so, first thing, in chat and in the plan.
2. Use targeted repo exploration (grep/glob/reads) to approximate callers,
dependencies, execution flow, state changes, and related tests.
3. Label every such finding **source-derived** in the plan — never present it
as graph-derived, and never fabricate statement-level edges.
4. Recommend `analyze --index-only` (add `--pdg` for the PDG layers) via
the resolved runner — `node .gitnexus/run.cjs`, installed `gitnexus`, or
`npx gitnexus` — when it would materially raise confidence.
## Skill feedback
If this run exposed friction in the instructions, include concise feedback in
the final response. Feedback is chat-only: do not append evaluation learnings,
edit benchmark data, or modify this skill during a live planning task.

# Context ledger
The ledger is gitnexus-plan's working memory. It exists to make repeated
investigation impossible-by-discipline: **before every GitNexus call and
every repo file read, check it.** Keep it as structured notes in your working
context (or a scratchpad file _outside the repo_ for very long sessions); it
is never published verbatim — the plan and context pack are distilled from
it. This skill's own reference files are exempt from ledger bookkeeping.

## Evidence provenance
`context-pack.md` is the sole normative emitted field schema, and
`evidence-provenance.md` plus `../scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` are the
normative byte contract and implementation. Keep the helper's exact schema-2
output in the ledger; do not redefine, abbreviate, or independently reproduce
its canonicalization here.
Build `evidence_provenance` immediately before composing the plan, after all
source verification, by invoking the helper exactly as described in
`evidence-provenance.md`. It is a versioned, canonical snapshot of both the
whole working tree and every path that supports a plan citation:
- `global_dirty_digest` is SHA-256 over the helper's versioned, NUL-framed
records for
**every dirty repo-relative path**, not only cited paths. Each record includes
path, state, object kind, every available layer digest, and both endpoints of
a rename. Overlapping porcelain facts for one path are merged; for example,
a staged deletion plus a recreated untracked file is `mixed` and retains
both its Git-backed and untracked layers. States are `staged`, `unstaged`,
`untracked`, `deleted`, `renamed`, or `mixed`. Exclude only this run's
normalized repo-relative generated plan path so writing the plan cannot
invalidate its own evidence; do not exclude the rest of `docs/plans/`.
- `cited_path_manifest` is sorted by normalized repo-relative path and
includes every path cited by a `[verified]` claim or named as evidence in
the context pack. Record clean paths too. A path entry has this shape:
```yaml
- path: 'src/example.ts'
object_kind: # each layer: regular | symlink | gitlink | directory | absent
head: 'regular'
index: 'regular'
worktree: 'regular'
untracked: 'absent'
state: 'clean | staged | unstaged | untracked | deleted | renamed | mixed | absent'
rename_from: null
rename_to: null
head_digest: 'sha256:<hex> | absent'
index_digest: 'sha256:<hex> | absent'
worktree_digest: 'sha256:<hex> | absent'
untracked_digest: 'sha256:<hex> | absent'
```
Use Git object contents for HEAD and index digests and filesystem bytes for
worktree/untracked digests; never confuse an absent layer with an empty file.
Hash symlink targets as link text and gitlinks as object IDs. If a cited path
cannot be classified or read, the plan must mark the evidence unavailable
instead of emitting a digest it did not prove.
## Reread rules
Do **not** repeat a query or reread a source range unless one of:
- the previous result was incomplete for the question at hand;
- the source is known to have changed (an edit happened);
- validation exposed a contradiction between graph and source.
**Allowed repeats** (deliberate escalations, not violations):
- `summaryOnly: true` → full drill-down on the same `impact` target;
- an `ambiguous` result retried once with `kind` / `file_path` / uid narrowing;
- the same tool re-run with a changed parameter that answers a _new_ planning
question (e.g. `pdg_query` `controls` then `flows` on one function).
When a repeat is justified, note in the ledger _why_ the earlier entry was
insufficient. A ledger full of near-duplicate queries is the failure signal —
stop and plan with what is established.
## Discarding
Symbols and queries that turned out irrelevant stay in the ledger marked
`discarded` with a one-line reason. That is what prevents re-walking dead
ends later in the session.

# Implementation context pack
Section 11 of the plan. The stable, machine-readable contract a follow-up
implementation agent (`gitnexus-work`, or any executor) consumes to start
work **without repeating the investigation**. Distilled from the ledger;
every entry traceable to verified evidence.
**Compact plans emit the mini-pack** — only: `task_summary`,
`evidence_provenance`, `files_to_modify`, `tests`,
`verification_commands`, `pdg_constraints` (only when a slice actually
ran), `assumptions`, `open_questions`, `avoid`. Full plans emit every
field. Field semantics are identical in both; `evidence_provenance` is
mandatory in both forms. `gitnexus-work` treats absent optional fields as
empty, not as errors.
## Schema
This is the sole normative emitted `evidence_provenance` field schema. The
portable byte contract and executable serializer live in
`evidence-provenance.md` and `../scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs`; sibling
documents must reference them rather than reimplementing canonical bytes.

## Stability contract
Field names above are the interface consumed by `gitnexus-work` (fields it
does not act on directly travel as executor context). Add fields
freely; do not rename or repurpose existing ones. `assumptions` and `avoid`
are load-bearing: an executor treats `assumptions` as things to re-verify
cheaply before relying on them, and `avoid` as hard constraints.
`evidence_provenance` is also load-bearing: its version, global digest, and
sorted cited-path manifest let the executor distinguish commit drift from
staged, unstaged, untracked, deleted, renamed, mixed, or absent working-tree
evidence. Legacy packs that lack it or use schema 1 require a conservative
schema-2 re-anchor; they are not interpreted as a clean tree.
`generated_plan_path` is always normalized, relative to the target repo, and
scoped to the generated-plan filename shape under `docs/plans/`; schema 2 has
no external-output representation. An executor must load the plan with the
helper's descriptor-anchored `read-plan` command and require this field to
equal the receipt's canonical target-repo-relative path byte-for-byte.

# Evidence provenance serializer v2 and safe plan writer
This file is the normative byte contract for `evidence_provenance` schema 2.
The adjacent `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` is its executable definition.
`gitnexus-plan` and `gitnexus-work` carry byte-identical copies so either skill
can produce the same snapshot without relying on the other skill's install.
It is also the only supported write boundary for a generated plan. Never
recreate the digest with an ad-hoc shell pipeline or write the plan destination
directly.
## Invocation
From the target repository root, run the helper belonging to the active skill:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md
```
`read-plan` is the only supported way to load an existing plan for Deepen or
execution. It emits a JSON receipt with the canonical `generated_plan_path`,
`bytes_read`, exact `plan_bytes_base64`, and `plan_digest` (`sha256:<hex>`).
Decode and consume those exact bytes; do not reopen the lexical path. Retain
the canonical path and digest together for the complete Deepen session; a
receipt for one path never authorizes another, even when their bytes match.
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs snapshot \
--repo "$PWD" \
--schema-version 2 \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--cited src/one.ts \
--cited test/one.test.ts
```
Pass one `--cited` argument for every cited path. The helper emits the complete
JSON value for `evidence_provenance`; copy that value without rewriting fields.
`gitnexus-work` passes the plan's `schema_version`, `generated_plan_path`, and
every path in `cited_path_manifest`. Schema 1 is legacy and deliberately
rejected, so the executor must conservatively re-anchor it under schema 2.
After the snapshot is in the fully composed document, publish its exact UTF-8
bytes through the same helper:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
< /path/to/outside-repo-scratch-plan.md
```
For Deepen only:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--replace \
--expected-plan-path docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--expected-plan-digest 'sha256:<digest-from-read-plan>' \
< /path/to/outside-repo-scratch-plan.md
```
Initial planning never passes `--replace`; an existing destination is an
error. Deepen mode rewrites the same path by adding `--replace`,
`--expected-plan-path <generated_plan_path-from-read-plan>`, and
`--expected-plan-digest <plan_digest-from-that-same-receipt>`. Standard input must be
valid UTF-8 and at most 16 MiB. A successful write prints a JSON receipt with
the normalized `generated_plan_path` and `bytes_written`. A successful Deepen
write also returns `prior_plan_backup_git_path`, a durable Git-admin path for
the displaced plan. The CLI rejects every option that does not apply to its
selected command; the direct API likewise requires literal booleans and exact
digest strings rather than truthy coercion.
## Path contract
Every Git path and CLI path must be valid UTF-8, already normalized to Unicode
NFC, and a nonempty POSIX repo-relative path. NUL, backslash, absolute/drive
paths, empty components, and `.` or `..` components are rejected. The helper
does not silently repair or alias them. Invalid UTF-8 from Git, non-NFC names,
unmerged index stages, unsupported Git modes, sockets/devices/FIFOs, unreadable
objects, symlink traversal in a parent path component, or a repository mutation
observed during the snapshot fail closed.
The generated-plan path is always repo-relative under schema 2. Snapshot
exclusion and writing require exactly
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<3-5-word-kebab-slug>.md`, including a
valid calendar date; they cannot target `.git`, source, configuration, or an
arbitrary repo file. For compatibility with documented and legacy plans,
`read-plan` accepts normalized files matching `docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md`,
while retaining the same descriptor-anchored containment checks. That read
compatibility does not widen the writer. External output has no schema-2
representation. The snapshot exclusion is one exact normalized path
comparison. No glob, directory, basename, or `docs/plans/`-wide exclusion is
permitted. If the exact path is a rename endpoint, only that endpoint record is
excluded.
## Safe existing-plan read contract
`read-plan` fails closed unless Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`, and
`O_NOFOLLOW` are available. It resolves the exact Git top-level, opens the
repository root and every plan parent as held no-follow directory descriptors,
rejects missing, symlink, non-directory, and escaping parents, and opens the
leaf with `O_NOFOLLOW`. It reads at most 16 MiB from that held file descriptor,
requires valid UTF-8, hashes the exact bytes, then proves both the parent chain
and lexical leaf still name the same held objects before returning its receipt.
Neither Deepen nor work may parse bytes obtained before or outside this receipt.
## Safe generated-plan write contract
The writer fails closed unless Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`,
`O_NOFOLLOW`, and Python 3 with libc `renameat2(RENAME_NOREPLACE)` support are
available. Python may live in `/usr/local`, a Nix profile, or another absolute
PATH directory, but the helper accepts only a resolved executable and
containing directory owned by root or the current user and not writable by
group/other. The resolved executable is opened without following links and
invoked through that held descriptor. Relative PATH entries are ignored. The plan parent and the
repository's Git-admin directory must also share a filesystem. It resolves
the target repository's exact Git top-level, opens that root and every
destination parent as held no-follow directory descriptors, creates missing
parents relative to those descriptors, and proves the descriptor and lexical
chains still identify the same directories at the write boundary. A symlink
or non-directory parent, an escaping resolved path, a symlink/non-regular final
target, or a parent swap is an error.
The writer creates a random exclusive temporary file relative to the held final
parent descriptor and keeps its no-follow descriptor open. It writes and
flushes the bytes, binds the temporary name to the opened inode, and hashes the
open file before publication. Immediately before publication it revalidates
the parent and the temporary path, inode, size, and digest. Publication uses an
atomic no-replace move relative to the held directory descriptor. Initial mode
therefore cannot overwrite a destination that appears after the absent check.
The writer then flushes the directory and revalidates the committed path by
opening it with `O_NOFOLLOW`, hashing both the original temporary fd and the
path-bound fd, and performing a second descriptor-anchored path identity check
after hashing. A detected mutation or replacement aborts instead of accepting
mixed-era output.
`--replace` accepts only a pre-existing regular file and is reserved for
Deepen; without it, accidental overwrite is rejected. It also requires the
exact canonical `generated_plan_path` and `plan_digest` from the same session's
`read-plan` receipt. The expected path must exactly equal the write
destination, so identical bytes from one plan cannot authorize another plan.
Immediately before
preservation, the writer hashes the still-held prior-plan fd and rejects any
digest, inode, or path mismatch, including same-inode edits and changes between
read and write. It then atomically moves the current destination without
replacement to a random `gitnexus-plan-backups/` file under the resolved
Git-admin directory and verifies the moved inode and digest against that held
fd. Only then does it publish the new plan with the same atomic no-replace
primitive. A destination that reappears at either boundary is left untouched.
Every newly created plan or vault directory is fsynced and then fsynced into
its containing directory. Every cross-directory preservation move fsyncs both
its source and destination directories before success or a recovery path is
reported. After temporary bytes exist, a failed publication or verification preserves
every available prior, displaced, unpublished, or intended plan in that
Git-admin vault before reporting failure. Each reported recovery is reopened
from a freshly resolved Git root and verified before the error names it as
`git-path:gitnexus-plan-backups/<random-name>`. Resolve that value with
`git rev-parse --git-path gitnexus-plan-backups/<random-name>`; never interpret
it as a repo-relative working-tree path. This remains valid if the held plan
parent was renamed after publication. The writer never reports recovery
through a stale lexical parent and never performs an identity-check-then-unlink
rollback that could delete a racer's replacement. Read-only or unsupported
checkouts produce a blocking error. Callers must not bypass the helper,
redirect to an external path, or weaken these checks.
## Canonical bytes
The `global_dirty_digest.value` is lowercase SHA-256 (without a `sha256:`
prefix) over this byte stream. All textual values are their exact UTF-8 bytes.
`NUL` below is one `0x00` byte.
1. Prefix fields, each followed by NUL, then one additional NUL:
`gitnexus-evidence-provenance`, `schema_version`, `2`.
2. Zero or more records sorted by unsigned lexicographic comparison of the
normalized path's UTF-8 bytes. Locale and filesystem order are forbidden.
3. Each record is `record` + NUL, then the following fixed-order sequence of
`field-name` + NUL + `field-value` + NUL pairs, then one additional NUL:
`path`, `state`, `head_kind`, `index_kind`, `worktree_kind`,
`untracked_kind`, `rename_from`, `rename_to`, `head_digest`,
`index_digest`, `worktree_digest`, `untracked_digest`.
4. The literal `absent` represents every unavailable rename endpoint, object
kind, and layer digest in canonical bytes. It is never an empty string.
The schema's canonicalization literal is exactly
`gitnexus-evidence-provenance-v2 NUL-framed UTF-8 records`. The fixed field
count plus the extra NUL after prefix/record makes framing unambiguous; values
cannot contain NUL. Duplicate normalized paths are rejected.
## Records, renames, and states
The raw dirty set comes from Git porcelain v2 with NUL termination, all
untracked files, submodule inspection enabled, a fixed 50% rename threshold,
and both `diff.renameLimit=0` and `status.renameLimit=0`, so repository config
cannot cap rename candidates. Raw porcelain facts that share a path are merged
into one canonical record. A rename contributes two endpoint facts:
- old endpoint: `path=<old>`, `rename_from=absent`, `rename_to=<new>`;
- new endpoint: `path=<new>`, `rename_from=<old>`, `rename_to=absent`.
Both normally have state `renamed`; record sorting, not old/new role,
determines order. A worktree-dirty rename destination or any endpoint that also
has another fact is `mixed`, with rename metadata retained. When either endpoint
is cited, the cited manifest expands to include both.
Ordinary `XY` status maps to `mixed` when index and worktree columns are both
dirty, otherwise `deleted` for a deletion, `staged` for index-only change, and
`unstaged` for worktree-only change. `?` is `untracked`. Multiple distinct
facts for the same path become `mixed`; a staged deletion plus a recreated file
therefore retains HEAD/index facts while the filesystem object is recorded in
the untracked layer. `? child/` is Git's embedded-directory marker: the trailing
slash is removed before path normalization and `child` is materialized as one
bounded directory object. A cited path outside the dirty set is `clean`,
`untracked` when it exists only outside Git layers, or `absent` when no layer
exists.
## Object and digest rules
Every present layer digest is `sha256:<lowercase-hex>`:
- HEAD regular/symlink: SHA-256 of the exact Git blob bytes. HEAD directory:
SHA-256 of the exact raw Git tree bytes. HEAD gitlink: SHA-256 of the ASCII
object ID stored by the tree.
- Index regular/symlink: SHA-256 of the stage-0 Git blob bytes. Index gitlink:
SHA-256 of its ASCII object ID. The index has no directory layer. Any
non-stage-0 entry is rejected.
- Tracked worktree regular: raw file bytes, opened without following symlinks.
Symlink: raw link-target bytes. Gitlink: ASCII object ID at the checked-out
nested HEAD, but only after `rev-parse --show-toplevel` proves that the
directory itself is the nested repository root, `HEAD` resolves there, and
porcelain v2 reports no staged, unstaged, untracked, or ignored nested changes. The
same root, HEAD, and clean-status proof is repeated by the mutation guard. A
dirty, empty, uninitialized, or parent-falling-through gitlink fails closed.
Directory: the v1 directory stream described below.
- A path absent from both HEAD and index places the filesystem object in the
`untracked` layer and marks `worktree` absent. A Git-backed path places it in
`worktree` and marks `untracked` absent. A missing layer uses literal
`absent` for both kind and digest; an empty file is the SHA-256 of zero bytes.
Filesystem directory bytes use prefix fields
`gitnexus-evidence-directory`, `schema_version`, `1`, the same NUL framing,
and recursive entries sorted by unsigned UTF-8 relative-path bytes. Each entry
has fixed fields `path`, `kind`, `digest`. A single bottom-up filesystem walk
visits each node once and returns each child digest plus the flattened subtree
needed to preserve those canonical bytes; links are never followed. When the
directory is proven to be an exact nested Git top-level, only its administrative
`.git` entry is excluded. Every other child, including working files and nested
directories, remains evidence.
Each directory object is bounded to 10,000 visited entries, depth 256, and 256
MiB of regular-file content. Exceeding a bound fails closed. These bounds apply
independently to each top-level directory object materialized by a record.
HEAD objects are read only from the full object ID captured at snapshot start;
the symbolic `HEAD` name is never re-resolved for layers. Index layers are
parsed from one captured stage-0 listing. The helper guards the corresponding
HEAD/ref/reflog controls and raw index file, compares the captured listing at
the end, and rejects ordinary A-to-B-to-A mutations instead of accepting
mixed-era layers.
Regular files are read through an `O_NOFOLLOW` descriptor with before/after
identity checks. Symlinks use lstat/readlink/lstat; directories record identity
before and after their inventory. The helper also compares raw porcelain-v2
status and HEAD at the start and end, then rechecks filesystem guards. An
absent cited path holds a no-follow descriptor for the nearest existing parent
and records the first missing component or leaf; that anchored absence is
checked both before and after the final Git status pass, so a newly created
ignored path cannot evade porcelain. Any observed race rejects the snapshot
rather than emitting mixed-era evidence.

# Building the PDG context slice
Statement-level evidence for the 13 functions most central to the change.
Goal: a compact slice the planning LLM can hold, never a graph dump.
## Tools (all verified against `gitnexus/src/mcp/tools.ts`)
| Question | Call |
| --- | --- |
| Under what condition does X run? Guards? | `pdg_query {mode: "controls", target}` |
| Where does variable Y flow inside the function? | `pdg_query {mode: "flows", target, variable}` |
| What depends on the statement at line N? | `impact {mode: "pdg", target, direction: "upstream", line: N}` |
| Source→sink taint paths (security mode) | `explain {target}` |
Contract caveats that shape interpretation:
- `impact` requires `direction` in every mode, `mode: "pdg"` included —
`"upstream"` for "what depends on this statement", `"downstream"` for what
it depends on. Omitting it fails schema validation.
- CDG branch sense is `'T'`/`'F'` in the result's `label` field; a guard's
sense depends on its predicate (`if (!ok) return;` rides `'T'`) — never
filter guards by a fixed label. Early return/throw edges carry `guard:
true`. (The raw edge stores the sense in `reason`, visible only via
`cypher`.)
- `pdg_query` is intra-procedural and always anchored. Cross-function flow is
taint's domain (`explain`) or `impact {mode:"pdg"}`'s inter-procedural reach.
- Every `switch` case arm is `'T'` (per-case conditions not distinguished).
- No `--pdg` layer → the tools return a "no PDG layer" note, not an error.
The note is repo-wide: one probe settles it — do not re-probe per function.
Under `freshness: strict` (default), run `analyze --index-only --pdg` via
the runner resolved in SKILL.md Phase 1 — this is the one `--pdg` upgrade
Phase 1's refresh budget allows (skip it if Phase 1 already refreshed
with `--pdg`; apply the runner build check first) — then re-probe. If the refresh failed, is impractical, or `freshness: accept` was
passed: record "PDG unavailable" in the ledger, skip the slice, say so in
plan §5, and recommend the command. Never reconstruct edges from source by
hand.
## Inclusion criteria
A statement enters the slice only if it is at least one of:
- directly matched to the task;
- a data-flow predecessor or successor of a relevant statement (within
`pdg_data_depth`, default 2);
- a control dependency of a relevant statement (within `pdg_control_depth`,
default 2);
- a state mutation affecting the requested behavior;
- an external call on the execution path;
- an error-handling or fallback branch;
- part of an affected return value;
- required to explain a test assertion.
Everything else is cut. If the slice exceeds ~15 statements per function,
tighten relevance rather than raising depth.
## Slice representation
Working-memory material: keep the full slice in working context while
planning, summarize it into the ledger's one-line `pdg_slices` entries, and
distill it into plan §5.
```yaml
pdg_context:
entry_symbol: "processFileGroup"
source: { file: "gitnexus/src/core/ingestion/worker.ts", start_line: 120, end_line: 188 }
relevant_statements:
- id: "stmt-12" # stable id or "<file>:<line>"
lines: "128-130"
type: "condition | call | mutation | return | throw"
code: "if (request.retryable) {"
relevance: "Controls whether retry scheduling is entered"
defines: []
uses: ["request.retryable"]
control_dependencies: ["stmt-4"]
data_dependencies: []
execution_flow: # ordered, prose steps
- "Validate request"
- "Schedule retry"
critical_dependencies:
- { from: "stmt-7", to: "stmt-18", type: "data", explanation: "Validated request becomes scheduler input" }
behavioural_observations:
- "Persistence occurs before scheduler invocation"
planning_implications:
- "Changes to scheduling must account for partial failure"
```
Adapt field names to what the tools actually returned; keep it
machine-readable and short. `behavioural_observations` are confirmed facts;
`planning_implications` are inferences — keep the distinction.
## Security mode (task category: security)
Additionally identify and record: untrusted inputs, validation points,
sanitisation points, authn/authz checks, privilege boundaries, sensitive data,
persistence operations, network calls, dangerous sinks, and error paths that
bypass validation. Run `explain {target}` for persisted source→sink taint
paths (intra-procedural TAINTED edges and cross-function TAINT_PATH flows)
and include the hop paths for findings relevant to the task. Absence of a
taint finding is **not** proof of safety — closure/callback flows,
property/field flows, and implicit flows are not modeled, and guard-style
sanitizers may be missed — say so when it matters.
## Performance mode (task category: performance)
Additionally scan the slice for: loops, repeated calls, blocking operations,
network calls, database calls, allocation-heavy paths, caching boundaries,
concurrency, fan-out, repeated data transformations. State likely hot-path
implications as inferences; never claim measured improvements without
benchmark evidence.

# Plan document template
Two forms, chosen by the Phase 0 category (`form` knob overrides): **compact**
for narrow/default work, **full** for deep work. Repo-relative paths for all
repo artifacts in both.
## Compact form
Same evidence header, then only the load-bearing sections — keep the §
numbers in the headings so `gitnexus-work`'s § references resolve:
```markdown
# GitNexus Engineering Plan
> Task: <one line>
> Evidence verified at commit <sha>; GitNexus index <...>.
> Evidence provenance schema 2; global dirty digest <sha256>; cited-path manifest <count> sorted entries; exact generated plan path excluded.
## Objective (§1)
## Current Behaviour (§23) — ≤10 lines, architecture folded in
## Findings (§45) — only load-bearing, each tagged + tool-named
## Proposed Changes (§6)
## Implementation Sequence (§7) — risks inline as step notes
## Test Strategy (§8)
## Implementation Context (§11) — the mini-pack (see context-pack.md)
## Assumptions and Open Questions (§12)
## Definition of Done (§13)
```
Hard cap: **80 lines excluding the §11 pack**. Anything cut that still
matters becomes one line in §12 — never padded prose. A compact plan that
outgrows the cap is a signal the task was misclassified: reclassify to full
rather than overflowing.
## Full form
Fill every section below. If a section is genuinely empty for this task
(e.g. no PDG layer indexed), keep the heading and state why in one line —
never silently drop it.
**Claim tagging.** Tag every load-bearing claim with its evidence class:
`[verified]` (source-read at the pinned commit), `[graph]` (GitNexus/PDG
output, not source-confirmed), `[inferred]` (evidence-backed reasoning),
`[assumed]` (unverified — must also appear in §12). Untagged prose is
narrative, not evidence.
```markdown
# GitNexus Engineering Plan
> Task: <one line>
> Evidence verified at commit <HEAD sha>; GitNexus index <fresh | refreshed this session (--index-only [--pdg]) | N commits behind, refresh skipped: <reason> | not used>.
> Evidence provenance schema 2; global dirty digest <sha256>; cited-path manifest <count> sorted entries; exact generated plan path excluded.
## 1. Objective
A concise description of the requested outcome.
## 2. Current Behaviour
Describe the current implementation and execution path.
Include the most relevant symbols, files, and statement-level observations.
## 3. Relevant Architecture
Explain the involved modules, boundaries, dependencies, and established patterns.
## 4. GitNexus Findings
Summarise:
- primary symbols;
- callers and callees;
- impact radius;
- related implementations;
- related tests;
- important cross-module relationships.
## 5. Statement-Level PDG Findings
For each critical symbol, explain:
- relevant statements;
- control dependencies;
- data dependencies;
- state mutations;
- error branches;
- side effects;
- ordering constraints;
- planning implications.
Do not paste an unfiltered graph dump.
## 6. Proposed Changes
For every proposed change include:
- file;
- symbol;
- exact responsibility;
- intended behavioural change;
- dependencies;
- constraints;
- implementation notes.
## 7. Implementation Sequence
Provide an ordered sequence of implementation steps.
Each step must be independently actionable.
## 8. Test Strategy
Describe:
- tests to add;
- tests to update;
- edge cases;
- failure paths;
- regression coverage;
- integration boundaries;
- relevant verification commands.
## 9. Risk and Impact Analysis
Include:
- high-risk symbols;
- downstream consumers;
- compatibility concerns;
- performance concerns;
- concurrency or transaction risks;
- migration risks;
- observability requirements.
## 10. Files Expected to Change
| File | Symbols | Reason |
| ---- | ------- | ------ |
## 11. Reusable Implementation Context
The machine-readable context pack — see `context-pack.md`. Its mandatory
`evidence_provenance` field carries the full pinned commit, canonical
repository-wide dirty digest, and sorted cited-path manifest.
## 12. Assumptions and Open Questions
Clearly separate assumptions from confirmed facts. Explicitly-deferred
follow-up suggestions (adjacent work the task didn't ask for) land here too.
## 13. Definition of Done
Concrete, testable completion criteria.
```
Composition notes:
- Immediately before composition, emit `evidence_provenance.schema_version`,
the full HEAD commit, the canonical `global_dirty_digest`, and the
`cited_path_manifest` sorted by normalized repo-relative path. Include
object kinds, rename endpoints, and HEAD/index/worktree/untracked layer
digests. Exclude only the generated plan path from the global digest.
- Invoke `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` per `evidence-provenance.md` and
copy its schema-2 JSON; never recreate canonical records in prose or shell.
- Publish the fully composed UTF-8 plan only with that helper's `write-plan`
command. Initial planning must not replace an existing file; Deepen rewrites
the same repo-relative path with `write-plan --replace
--expected-plan-path <path-from-read-plan>
--expected-plan-digest <digest-from-read-plan>`, which preserves the prior
plan in the receipt's `prior_plan_backup_git_path`. Both expected values must
come from the same receipt. Deepen must load and bind that canonical path and
those original bytes through `read-plan` first. Snapshot, read, and
publication must pass the same strict generated-plan filename/date validator.
- §2/§5 quote source excerpts at most `max_snippet_lines` (30) lines each, and
only when the excerpt carries the argument.
- §4 findings each name the tool call they came from (tool + key args), plus a
one-line quote of the result when the plan leans on it — that is what makes
a tool claim auditable later. Stale-index or fallback-mode findings are
labelled as such.
- §6 changes may only name symbols the ledger marks `source_verified`.
- §7 steps are ordered by dependency and independently actionable — an
executor can stop after any step with the tree still coherent. Steps that
change output guarded by fingerprints, goldens, or recorded baselines
regenerate those artifacts ONCE, in the final step of the sequence — CI
judges only the tip, and per-step refreshes churn every intermediate
commit and re-drift as later steps land.
- §8 names real, located test files for updates; new tests get concrete
scenario lists (input → action → expected outcome). Verification commands
must exist AND be runnable: prefer the npm/CI script form that carries its
prerequisites (pre-hooks, builds) over invoking underlying binaries directly.
- §9 must account for every direct (depth-1) dependent the impact pass
reported.

# GitNexus review
Review the requested change surface without editing source, committing, pushing,
posting, or resolving threads. A later explicit request may authorize those
actions. Use GitNexus for structural evidence and source inspection for proof;
neither substitutes for the other.
## Resolve the target
Accept these forms:
| Input | Review surface |
| ------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| PR URL, `owner/repo#42`, `#42`, or bare number | GitHub PR |
| `base...head` | Merge-base range |
| `base..head` | Exact two-dot range |
| Branch, tag, or commit | Ref against the repository default branch |
| `local`, `staged`, `unstaged`, or working-tree wording | Local changes |
| No target | Current branch's open PR; otherwise local changes; otherwise current branch |
An explicit target always wins. Interpret a bare number as a PR only in a
GitHub repository with working `gh` authentication; otherwise ask for a ref or
URL. If implicit mode finds both branch commits and local changes, review them
as two labeled surfaces rather than silently dropping or blending either one.
Record the resolved target kind, repository root, default branch, base SHA,
head SHA, merge-base when applicable, and included local states. Resolve the
default branch from remote metadata (`refs/remotes/<remote>/HEAD` or GitHub
repository metadata); use `main` or `master` only as an explicit fallback and
say when doing so.
### PR
Use `gh pr view`/`gh api` to pin the PR number, repository, title, URL, base
ref, base SHA, head ref, and head SHA. Fetch those exact commits without
switching the user's branch. Compute `git merge-base <base> <head>` and use
that SHA as the review base: GitHub PR diffs are merge-base diffs, while
`detect_changes(scope: "compare")` is a two-dot comparison.
Use the local `git diff <merge-base> <head>` as the complete diff source of
truth; use GitHub metadata for PR facts and review state. For fork PRs, fetch
the pull ref or the contributor remote instead of assuming the head branch
exists on `origin`.
### Branch, ref, or range
Resolve every ref to a commit before reviewing. For a branch or `A...B`, use
the merge-base as the comparison base. For an explicit `A..B`, honor `A` as
the exact base. Do not compare a feature branch directly with a moving default
branch tip when merge-base semantics were intended.
### Local changes
Inspect `git status --short`, the staged diff, the unstaged diff, and every
untracked file. Use `detect_changes` with `staged`, `unstaged`, or `all` as
requested. Untracked files are not guaranteed to appear in Git diff or graph
mapping, so read them directly and list them in the review provenance.
## Align the checkout and index
The graph and diff must describe the same head. Reuse an existing worktree only
when it is at the exact target SHA. Otherwise create a temporary detached
worktree for the PR/ref head, review there, and remove only that temporary
worktree afterward. Never switch or reset the user's current worktree.
Check GitNexus status in the target worktree. If stale, run
`node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze --index-only` before trusting graph results
(temporary worktrees never carry the gitignored `run.cjs` — fall back to the
installed `gitnexus` CLI, then `npx gitnexus`), and include `--pdg` in that
same refresh when the diff plausibly touches trust or data-flow boundaries,
so the taint pass below doesn't pay a second full analyze. Taint and
dependence evidence needs that PDG layer: when the workflow's taint pass
finds it missing, rebuild with `analyze --pdg --index-only` and record the
rebuild in provenance. For local changes, refresh the index so new or
modified source is represented.
If an exact target checkout/index cannot be established, state the limitation
and do not claim a complete graph-backed review.
## Review workflow
1. Read the full diff and changed-file list. Separate generated files,
dependency churn, tests, and behavior changes.
2. Run `detect_changes` against the exact surface:
- PR/branch/`...`: `scope: "compare"`, `base_ref: <merge-base SHA>`.
- Explicit `A..B`: `scope: "compare"`, `base_ref: <A SHA>` from a worktree
at `B`.
- Local: `scope: "staged"`, `"unstaged"`, or `"all"`.
Pass `worktree` when the MCP server is attached elsewhere.
3. Run upstream `impact` with `includeTests: true` for each behaviorally changed
symbol. Prioritize public contracts, shared types, control flow, persistence,
security boundaries, and error handling; skip mechanical/generated changes.
4. Inspect every direct (`d=1`) dependent that is outside the diff. A dependent
outside the diff is a lead, not automatically a bug—verify the changed
contract and caller behavior in source.
5. Use `context` on key or ambiguous symbols and inspect affected execution
flows. Read the surrounding implementation and tests at cited locations.
6. **Taint and dependence pass.** For changed code on trust or data-flow
boundaries — external input, persistence, process execution, network,
auth — run `explain` on the changed files or symbols and judge its
source→sink taint findings against the diff: a flow the change
introduces, or a sanitizer/guard the change removes, is a finding; a
pre-existing flow is context, not a defect of this change. When the
change claims to guard or sanitize something, verify with `pdg_query`:
what controls the changed statement, and where its values flow. This
needs a `--pdg` index; if one cannot be built, state that the taint pass
was skipped rather than implying coverage.
7. Check whether tests exercise the changed behavior, boundary conditions, and
affected flows. Run focused read-only validation when practical. When the
diff refreshes a committed baseline, fingerprint, or golden, re-run the
exact CI check command against the head instead of trusting the committed
value — a stale artifact is invisible in the diff and fails only in CI.
8. Reconcile graph evidence with the raw diff. New files, dynamic dispatch,
configuration, reflection, and untracked content may require direct review
even when graph results are empty. Version and invalidation constants are
review surface: when the diff changes what gets emitted or persisted,
verify every schema/version constant gating caches, incremental
writebacks, and fingerprint baselines was bumped or regenerated — in
GitNexus itself, for example: `INCREMENTAL_SCHEMA_VERSION` (the
incremental write set covers only changed files, so new cross-file edges
never reach an existing index without the bump), the parse-store
`SCHEMA_BUMP`, and both bench fingerprint sets.
## Expert lenses
Depth comes from matching reviewers to what actually changed, not from one
generalist pass. After workflow step 2, group the changed files and symbols
by the functional areas the graph already knows — the index's cluster
listing; `context` names each symbol's cluster — and give each touched area
an expert lens: a reviewer charged with that domain's contracts, invariants,
and failure modes, grounded in the repo's own material (architecture docs,
agent rules, the domain's tests) before judging the diff. A lens verifies,
not just reads: when the changed code is a pure function reachable from the
repo's own toolchain — parsers, extractors, capture emitters, formatters —
execute it on the candidate failing shape (a scratch probe, deleted
afterward) and cite the observed output. An empirical probe outranks source
reading in the evidence hierarchy; role swaps, dead branches, and
error-recovery-dependent behavior repeatedly pass a reading and fail a
ten-line probe. The numbered
workflow runs exactly once; dispatch the lens passes after step 6, handing
each lens the evidence already collected rather than letting lenses repeat
the `impact`, `context`, or taint calls. In GitNexus
itself, for example: shared ingestion-pipeline changes get an ingestion
expert plus one language expert per changed language extractor; embeddings
changes an embeddings expert; LadybugDB/storage changes a Ladybug expert.
Four cross-cutting lenses run regardless of domain:
- **Architectural fit** — the change lands where the architecture says the
concern lives, reuses existing seams, and adds no parallel structure.
- **Language conformance** — the repo's own type/lint/test contract as
configured (tsconfig strictness, lint rules, test conventions); in a
strict TypeScript repo, for example: strictness intact, no `any`/`as any`
escapes, module boundaries typed. Judge by the repo's contract, never a
universal style bar.
- **Definition of Done** — changed behavior has tests, docs the change makes
stale are updated, and sync/drift guards (shipped copies, manifests,
changelogs) still hold.
- **Simplicity** — YAGNI and clear-code check: flag speculative abstraction,
unused knobs, and overengineering; the smallest diff that meets the
Definition of Done is the standard.
Scale effort to the surface: a single-domain change of a few files gets one
combined pass covering its domain lens plus the four cross-cutting checks;
a multi-domain change gets one lens per touched area — run as parallel
subagents where the harness supports them, each scoped to its own files
plus the shared graph evidence, and as sequential passes otherwise. Never
spawn a lens for a domain the diff does not touch. Merge lenses that ground
in the same material — two lenses reading the same files pay twice for one
read's coverage, so give one reviewer both charges. Where the harness
offers model or effort tiers, run mechanical lenses (rename sweeps,
doc-consistency checks) on a cheaper tier and reserve the strongest engine
for adversarial judgment. Every lens reports
through the Finding standard below; merge and dedup before the verdict,
dropping anything without a concrete failing scenario.
## Finding standard
Report a finding only when the reviewed change introduces a concrete defect,
regression, security issue, compatibility break, material coverage gap, or a
maintainability cost with a concrete carrying scenario (a dead knob, a
duplicated contract, a drift-prone copy).
Each finding must include:
- severity and a precise `path:line` anchor;
- the failing scenario or contract;
- GitNexus evidence (dependent symbol/process) when applicable;
- why existing code or tests do not mitigate it;
- a concise remediation or missing test.
Do not report style preferences, pre-existing issues, raw risk counts, or
speculation as defects. Do not infer safety from zero graph hits. Calibrate
overall risk from consequence, reachability, reversibility, and test evidence,
not from the number of changed symbols alone.
## Output
Lead with findings in severity order. If there are none, say so explicitly.
Then provide:
```markdown
## Review: <target>
### Findings
- [HIGH|MEDIUM|LOW] `path:line`<problem, evidence, impact, remediation>
### Change and blast-radius summary
- Target/base/head/merge-base and local states reviewed
- Changed symbols and affected execution flows
### Coverage and residual risk
- Tests present, tests missing, graph/diff limitations
### Verdict
APPROVE | REQUEST CHANGES | NEEDS DISCUSSION
```
For a branch or local review, use `READY`, `NOT READY`, or `NEEDS DISCUSSION`
instead of a PR approval action. Include the exact target SHAs so a later run
can tell whether the evidence is stale.

# gitnexus-work — execute a gitnexus-plan
The executor counterpart to `gitnexus-plan`: consumes a plan's §11
implementation context pack and ships it as verified atomic commits, with
GitNexus discipline baked in — `impact` before every symbol edit,
`detect_changes` before every commit, tests from the plan's scenarios, and a
two-layer drift check that re-anchors both commit and dirty working-tree
evidence before relying on it.
## Invocation
| CLI | How to invoke |
| --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Claude Code** | `/gitnexus-work [plan path]` (blank → newest `docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md` in this repo) |
| **Codex CLI** | Ask: "run gitnexus-work on <plan path>" (Codex reads `AGENTS.md`), or install the skill user-level (below) |
### Codex (user-level install)
```
cp -r .claude/skills/gitnexus-work ~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-work
```
Optionally, for an explicit slash command, create
`~/.codex/prompts/gitnexus-work.md`:
```markdown
---
description: Execute a gitnexus-plan as verified atomic commits (impact-checked, detect_changes-gated)
argument-hint: <plan path, or blank for the newest plan>

Use the gitnexus-work skill for: $ARGUMENTS
Read `~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-work/SKILL.md` (prefer the repo copy at
`.claude/skills/gitnexus-work/SKILL.md` when present) and follow its phases in
order. This skill edits code; honor its impact-before-edit and
detect_changes-before-commit rules without exception.
```
## Contract with gitnexus-plan
- Input: the 13-section plan document; §11's `implementation_context` fields
are the machine-readable interface (see
`../gitnexus-plan/references/context-pack.md` for the stability contract).
- `evidence_provenance` is mandatory in compact and full plans. Work always
loads the plan only through its byte-identical helper's descriptor-anchored
`read-plan` command, consumes the exact base64 bytes from that receipt, and
recomputes the global dirty digest and sorted cited-path manifest even at
the same HEAD. Schema-2 `generated_plan_path` is a normalized
repo-relative `docs/plans/<date>-gitnexus-plan-<slug>.md` path; external,
escaping, or differently scoped values are invalid. It must also equal the
read receipt's canonical target-repo-relative path byte-for-byte.
Missing or schema-1 evidence re-anchors under schema 2.
- The plan is never mutated; deviations are recorded in commit messages and
the final report.
- Changed citations are re-read, new uncited dirty paths are assessed for
scope, and unreadable evidence blocks dependent work. Deepen is reserved
for drift that invalidates scope, requirements, a key technical decision,
or the planned seam.
## Graph freshness
One fail-closed **Build-current/index-current procedure** runs before every
graph-dependent impact query and again before final graph verification. It
compares indexed commit and the schema-4 runner identity (including its
`gitnexus-analyzer-dependency-runtime-v4` dependency payload/runtime digest),
requires no incomplete-index recovery markers, invalidates on
relationship-affecting committed or uncommitted edits, builds and invokes the
current local analyzer with PDG indexing when needed, and treats timestamps
only as a conservative trigger. Build, refresh, or identity failures block
impact and completion; the executor never falls back to a stale runner.

# gitnexus-work — execute a gitnexus-plan
Execute an implementation plan produced by `gitnexus-plan`, shipping it as a
sequence of verified, atomic commits. The plan's section 11
(`implementation_context` pack) is the primary machine-readable input; the
prose sections are its rationale. This skill **does** edit code — it is the
executor counterpart to the planning-only `gitnexus-plan`.
```
/gitnexus-work <plan path> # execute this plan
/gitnexus-work # newest docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md here
/gitnexus-work <small task text> # direct mode, see Input triage
```
## Input triage
- **Plan path** (or blank → the newest `docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md` under
the current repo root): the normal mode; continue to Phase 1. Schema-2
plans have a normalized repo-relative
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<3-5-word-slug>.md`
`generated_plan_path`. Resolve only a lexical candidate, then invoke
`scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan --repo <root> --generated-plan
<candidate>` and load only the exact bytes in its descriptor-anchored
receipt. Require the receipt's canonical repo-relative path to equal the
document's `generated_plan_path` byte-for-byte;
reject an external, escaping, differently scoped, or mismatched value. A
plan in another target repo may still be passed by explicit path. If Phase 1's
pre-completed check finds every §7 step of the newest plan already landed,
stop and ask instead of re-executing it.
- **Bare task text**: trivial and bounded (12 files, no architectural
decisions) → implement directly with the same discipline: `impact` before
every symbol edit, minimal change, tests when behavior changes,
verification commands taken from the repo's own scripts (package.json /
CI), `detect_changes` before every commit, and the shared
Build-current/index-current procedure before graph-dependent impact and
final verification. Anything larger → recommend running
`/gitnexus-plan` first; honor the user's choice if they decline.
## Phase 1 — Load and re-anchor the plan
1. Resolve the target repo and normalized plan candidate, then invoke this
skill's descriptor-anchored `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan`
command exactly as
specified in `references/evidence-provenance.md`. Reject a missing,
external, escaping, symlinked, or differently scoped path. Decode and read
the receipt's exact `plan_bytes_base64` completely; never read or reopen the
lexical path directly. It is a decision artifact, not a script: scope
boundaries and `avoid` entries bind you; exact code is yours to write.
Retain the receipt's canonical `generated_plan_path` and `plan_digest` in
session state. Never edit the plan body.
2. Parse the §11 `implementation_context` pack: `acceptance_criteria`,
`evidence_provenance`, `primary_symbols`, `related_symbols`,
`files_to_modify`, `execution_path`, `pdg_constraints`,
`architectural_patterns`, `tests`, `verification_commands`, `risks`,
`assumptions`, `open_questions`, `avoid`. Compact plans carry the
mini-pack subset — absent optional fields are empty, not errors.
`evidence_provenance` is mandatory: absence or schema 1 means a legacy
plan, not a clean tree. Before relying on it, require exact byte-for-byte
equality between the read-plan receipt's canonical `generated_plan_path`
and `evidence_provenance.generated_plan_path`.
3. **Two-layer drift check — always recompute.** Even when current HEAD is the
same HEAD as the plan pin, recompute both the canonical global dirty digest
and the sorted cited-path manifest. Read
`references/evidence-provenance.md`, then invoke this skill's
`scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` with the plan's exact
`generated_plan_path`, every cited manifest path, and schema version 2.
Never recreate its bytes in shell or prose. Schema 1 cannot be recomputed
unambiguously and requires conservative re-anchoring. Include
object kind plus HEAD/index/worktree/untracked layer digests, and classify
`staged`, `unstaged`, `untracked`, `deleted`, `renamed`, `mixed`,
and `absent` evidence. Honor the generated-plan exclusion exactly; do not
exclude all plans.
4. **Re-anchor on either mismatch.** Missing or legacy provenance, a HEAD
mismatch, or a global dirty digest mismatch requires a conservative
re-anchor before work:
- Diff every cited-path manifest entry. Changed cited paths — including
staged-only, unstaged-only, deleted, both rename endpoints, mixed
staged+unstaged, and disappeared untracked paths — get their cited ranges
re-read before reliance.
- Compare the current whole-tree dirty set with the pinned global digest.
New uncited dirty paths get a scope assessment: determine whether they
overlap the plan, requirements, tests, or a key technical decision; do not
silently ignore them merely because they are uncited.
- Unreadable or unclassifiable cited evidence blocks every dependent step
until it can be restored, read, or resolved with the user. Never substitute
an invented digest or treat absence as an empty file.
- Keep the re-anchor result in session state; never mutate the plan body.
Use Deepen only if reconciliation invalidates scope, requirements, a key
technical decision (KTD), or the planned implementation seam. Ordinary
byte drift that leaves those decisions valid is re-verified locally.
5. **Re-verify `assumptions` cheaply** (each one names what to check).
A failed assumption is a stop-and-replan signal for the steps that
depend on it, not something to code around silently.
6. Note `open_questions` — if one blocks a step and the answer materially
changes the work, ask the user before that step, not after.
7. **Pre-completed check.** If commits for this plan already exist on the
branch (a prior partial run, or a post-route-back Deepen cycle), verify
which §7 steps have landed at HEAD: those are skipped and reported as
pre-completed, and execution resumes at the first unlanded step. All
steps landed → report that and stop.
## Phase 2 — Environment
- On the default branch → create a feature branch named from the plan slug.
On a feature branch already → stay only if it is meaningful _for this
plan_ (name matches the plan slug, or the user confirms); otherwise
branch from here with the slug name.
- If the plan document is not yet committed, commit it now
(`docs(plans): add <slug> plan`) — the plan travels with the work it
drives, and the final review diff then includes it.
- Confirm the `verification_commands` from the pack actually run in this
checkout (dependencies installed, builds present) before starting, not
after the last step.
### Build-current/index-current procedure
This is the single graph-freshness procedure owned by `gitnexus-work`; it
applies in plan mode and direct mode. Before every graph-dependent `impact`
query, run the Build-current/index-current procedure. Before final graph
verification, run the same Build-current/index-current procedure again.
1. Capture current HEAD and working-tree provenance. Read
`gitnexus://repo/<name>/context` and use its typed `index.commit` and
`index.runner_identity` receipt — never infer analyzer identity from prose,
timestamps, or a path alone. Compare `index.commit` with current HEAD. A
current receipt has `schemaVersion: 4`, resolved runtime path/version, CLI
version, invoked-artifact path/digest, build
kind/root/canonicalization/digest, and dependency-runtime
manifest/lockfile/canonicalization/package-count/artifact-count/digest. Its
dependency canonicalization is
`gitnexus-analyzer-dependency-runtime-v4`. The dependency-runtime digest
covers resolved package metadata and complete loadable package payloads,
including JavaScript, JSON, native, Wasm, and parser artifacts; schema-1,
schema-2, and schema-3 receipts are legacy/stale (the MCP context labels
them `runner_identity_schema_status: legacy-or-unknown`). Require MCP
`index.incomplete_reasons: []`. Run the exact candidate CLI's
`status --json` command and require `index.runnerIdentityStatus: current`,
`index.incompleteReasons: []`, and top-level `status: up-to-date`. The
status comparator checks every semantic field while deliberately excluding
only diagnostic `invokedArtifact`; a worker-authored persisted receipt and
the CLI's live receipt may therefore differ in that field without becoming
stale. Missing, malformed, differently versioned, semantically unequal, or
incomplete receipts are unknown/stale, not a match.
2. Relationship-affecting committed and uncommitted edits invalidate
freshness after the last successful procedure run. This includes staged,
unstaged, untracked, deleted, or renamed analyzer/source/config changes
that can alter symbols or edges. Any such edit between steps requires an
inter-step refresh before the next graph query, even when HEAD did not move.
3. If the typed runner receipt is stale or unknown in an analyzer-source
checkout, build current local source using the verified package script. In
this repo: `cd gitnexus && npm run build`. Resolve the package's `bin`
target and run that exact artifact's `status --json` command to capture its
current receipt. Source/build timestamps are a conservative rebuild
trigger, not proof that an artifact is current.
4. Invoke that exact freshly built local CLI from the target repo root with
PDG layers enabled. In this repo:
`node gitnexus/dist/cli/index.js analyze --index-only --pdg`.
Add `--force` when the persisted receipt was absent, malformed,
differently versioned, or unequal so an already-up-to-date fast path cannot
leave legacy/stale provenance in place. The usual project-runner form,
`node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze`, is acceptable only when its proven runner
identity resolves to that same freshly built artifact. Do not fall back to
an older project runner, global install, or package download after
resolving/building the local artifact.
5. Re-read index context, rerun the exact invoked CLI's `status --json`, and
prove the post-refresh `index.commit` equals current HEAD, MCP
`index.incomplete_reasons` is empty, and its complete
`index.runner_identity` equals status `index.runnerIdentity` (the persisted
receipt). Require status `index.runnerIdentityStatus: current`, empty
`index.incompleteReasons`, and top-level `status: up-to-date`; do not require
raw equality with `current.runnerIdentity` because `invokedArtifact` is a
diagnostic entrypoint deliberately excluded from semantic freshness.
Record the dirty-state digest indexed in this procedure so same-HEAD
uncommitted edits can invalidate it later.
6. Any build, refresh, metadata-read, or identity-verification failure blocks
graph-dependent impact work and final completion. Report the failing
command and evidence; do not continue on an older graph.
## Phase 3 — Execute the Implementation Sequence
Work through plan §7 step by step, in order. For each step:
1. **Fresh impact before editing.** Run the Build-current/index-current
procedure immediately before every graph-dependent
`impact {target, direction: "upstream"}` query. Then account for every
direct (d=1) dependent. HIGH or CRITICAL risk → surface it to the user
with the blast radius before proceeding (repo mandate — see AGENTS.md
GitNexus rules).
2. **Honor the constraints.** `pdg_constraints` entries state ordering and
dependence facts the change must preserve; `avoid` entries are hard
prohibitions; `architectural_patterns` name the shape to mirror (read the
example location before inventing one).
3. **Implement minimally.** The smallest change that completes the step,
following the surrounding code's conventions.
4. **Test from the plan's scenarios.** Each `tests[]` scenario (input →
action → expected outcome) becomes a real test in the named file. Add
coverage the plan missed if the step's behavior demands it; never delete
or weaken an assertion to make a step pass. Prove a new regression test
discriminates: when the failure mode is subtle, run it once against the
pre-fix tree (write the test before the fix, or stash the fix) and watch
it fail — a test that passes both ways pins nothing.
5. **Verify.** Run the step-relevant `verification_commands` (they carry
their build prerequisites; use them as written). If any part of the
change executes from build output — worker entrypoints, dist-shipped
CLIs, bundled assets — rebuild that output before every verification
run: a pass or fail against outdated build output is noise, and "the
fix doesn't work" is more often "the fix never loaded".
6. **Commit atomically.** `detect_changes {scope: "staged"}` before every
commit to confirm only the expected symbols and flows are affected
(repo mandate); then one conventional commit per step. Run stage →
`detect_changes` → commit as one unbroken sequence from the repository
root — interleaving other work between the gate and the commit is how
the gate gets skipped. Unexpected
affected flows → investigate before committing, not after.
A relationship-affecting implementation edit or commit invalidates the
procedure's prior proof. The next step must perform the required inter-step
refresh before its impact query; final verification refreshes again after the
last edit.
Steps are independently actionable: after any commit the tree is coherent.
If a step reveals the plan is wrong, stop that step, re-verify the affected
claims at HEAD, and either adapt (small, in-scope deviation — record it in
the commit message and final summary) or route back to `gitnexus-plan`
Deepen mode (structural miss) — with a one-line ask to the user when the
choice isn't obvious.
## Phase 4 — Finish
1. Run the full `verification_commands` suite once, at the end, even if
every step already passed individually.
2. Walk plan §13 (Definition of Done) and the pack's `acceptance_criteria`
item by item; anything unmet is either finished now or reported as
explicitly unmet — never silently dropped.
3. **Verify the final knowledge graph.** Before final graph verification, run
the same Build-current/index-current procedure after the last edit, even
when no commit landed or HEAD still equals the original pin. Then run
`detect_changes {scope: "all"}` (or the repo's equivalent final graph
check) against that proven-current index and account for every unexpected
symbol or flow. A procedure failure blocks completion.
4. Report: steps completed, commits made, deviations from the plan (with
why), assumptions that failed re-verification, DoD status, final indexed
commit and runner identity, and anything deferred. Test failures are
reported with their output, not smoothed over.
## Never
- Skip the Phase 3 gates: no symbol edit without `impact`, no commit without
`detect_changes`.
- Expand scope beyond the plan — §12's deferred follow-ups stay deferred.
- Mutate the plan body (committing the file verbatim in Phase 2 is not
mutation), weaken failing tests, or present unverified work as verified.
## Skill feedback (GitNexus repo only)
If this run exposed friction in this skill's own instructions — wrong or
missing guidance, a wasted tool budget, a phase that misrouted — and the repo
carries `eval/workflow_bench/`, append one JSON line to
`eval/workflow_bench/learnings.jsonl` (create the file if absent):
`{"skill": "gitnexus-work", "date": "YYYY-MM-DD", "task": "<one line>", "friction": "<one line>", "suggestion": "<one line>"}`.
Never edit this skill file itself from a live task: improvements go through
the offline candidate loop (`eval/workflow_bench/README.md` § Prompt and
skill evolution loop), where a candidate must beat the incumbent on the
paired benchmark before a human merges it.

# Evidence provenance serializer v2 and safe plan writer
This file is the normative byte contract for `evidence_provenance` schema 2.
The adjacent `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` is its executable definition.
`gitnexus-plan` and `gitnexus-work` carry byte-identical copies so either skill
can produce the same snapshot without relying on the other skill's install.
It is also the only supported write boundary for a generated plan. Never
recreate the digest with an ad-hoc shell pipeline or write the plan destination
directly.
## Invocation
From the target repository root, run the helper belonging to the active skill:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md
```
`read-plan` is the only supported way to load an existing plan for Deepen or
execution. It emits a JSON receipt with the canonical `generated_plan_path`,
`bytes_read`, exact `plan_bytes_base64`, and `plan_digest` (`sha256:<hex>`).
Decode and consume those exact bytes; do not reopen the lexical path. Retain
the canonical path and digest together for the complete Deepen session; a
receipt for one path never authorizes another, even when their bytes match.
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs snapshot \
--repo "$PWD" \
--schema-version 2 \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--cited src/one.ts \
--cited test/one.test.ts
```
Pass one `--cited` argument for every cited path. The helper emits the complete
JSON value for `evidence_provenance`; copy that value without rewriting fields.
`gitnexus-work` passes the plan's `schema_version`, `generated_plan_path`, and
every path in `cited_path_manifest`. Schema 1 is legacy and deliberately
rejected, so the executor must conservatively re-anchor it under schema 2.
After the snapshot is in the fully composed document, publish its exact UTF-8
bytes through the same helper:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
< /path/to/outside-repo-scratch-plan.md
```
For Deepen only:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--replace \
--expected-plan-path docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--expected-plan-digest 'sha256:<digest-from-read-plan>' \
< /path/to/outside-repo-scratch-plan.md
```
Initial planning never passes `--replace`; an existing destination is an
error. Deepen mode rewrites the same path by adding `--replace`,
`--expected-plan-path <generated_plan_path-from-read-plan>`, and
`--expected-plan-digest <plan_digest-from-that-same-receipt>`. Standard input must be
valid UTF-8 and at most 16 MiB. A successful write prints a JSON receipt with
the normalized `generated_plan_path` and `bytes_written`. A successful Deepen
write also returns `prior_plan_backup_git_path`, a durable Git-admin path for
the displaced plan. The CLI rejects every option that does not apply to its
selected command; the direct API likewise requires literal booleans and exact
digest strings rather than truthy coercion.
## Path contract
Every Git path and CLI path must be valid UTF-8, already normalized to Unicode
NFC, and a nonempty POSIX repo-relative path. NUL, backslash, absolute/drive
paths, empty components, and `.` or `..` components are rejected. The helper
does not silently repair or alias them. Invalid UTF-8 from Git, non-NFC names,
unmerged index stages, unsupported Git modes, sockets/devices/FIFOs, unreadable
objects, symlink traversal in a parent path component, or a repository mutation
observed during the snapshot fail closed.
The generated-plan path is always repo-relative under schema 2. Snapshot
exclusion and writing require exactly
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<3-5-word-kebab-slug>.md`, including a
valid calendar date; they cannot target `.git`, source, configuration, or an
arbitrary repo file. For compatibility with documented and legacy plans,
`read-plan` accepts normalized files matching `docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md`,
while retaining the same descriptor-anchored containment checks. That read
compatibility does not widen the writer. External output has no schema-2
representation. The snapshot exclusion is one exact normalized path
comparison. No glob, directory, basename, or `docs/plans/`-wide exclusion is
permitted. If the exact path is a rename endpoint, only that endpoint record is
excluded.
## Safe existing-plan read contract
`read-plan` fails closed unless Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`, and
`O_NOFOLLOW` are available. It resolves the exact Git top-level, opens the
repository root and every plan parent as held no-follow directory descriptors,
rejects missing, symlink, non-directory, and escaping parents, and opens the
leaf with `O_NOFOLLOW`. It reads at most 16 MiB from that held file descriptor,
requires valid UTF-8, hashes the exact bytes, then proves both the parent chain
and lexical leaf still name the same held objects before returning its receipt.
Neither Deepen nor work may parse bytes obtained before or outside this receipt.
## Safe generated-plan write contract
The writer fails closed unless Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`,
`O_NOFOLLOW`, and Python 3 with libc `renameat2(RENAME_NOREPLACE)` support are
available. Python may live in `/usr/local`, a Nix profile, or another absolute
PATH directory, but the helper accepts only a resolved executable and
containing directory owned by root or the current user and not writable by
group/other. The resolved executable is opened without following links and
invoked through that held descriptor. Relative PATH entries are ignored. The plan parent and the
repository's Git-admin directory must also share a filesystem. It resolves
the target repository's exact Git top-level, opens that root and every
destination parent as held no-follow directory descriptors, creates missing
parents relative to those descriptors, and proves the descriptor and lexical
chains still identify the same directories at the write boundary. A symlink
or non-directory parent, an escaping resolved path, a symlink/non-regular final
target, or a parent swap is an error.
The writer creates a random exclusive temporary file relative to the held final
parent descriptor and keeps its no-follow descriptor open. It writes and
flushes the bytes, binds the temporary name to the opened inode, and hashes the
open file before publication. Immediately before publication it revalidates
the parent and the temporary path, inode, size, and digest. Publication uses an
atomic no-replace move relative to the held directory descriptor. Initial mode
therefore cannot overwrite a destination that appears after the absent check.
The writer then flushes the directory and revalidates the committed path by
opening it with `O_NOFOLLOW`, hashing both the original temporary fd and the
path-bound fd, and performing a second descriptor-anchored path identity check
after hashing. A detected mutation or replacement aborts instead of accepting
mixed-era output.
`--replace` accepts only a pre-existing regular file and is reserved for
Deepen; without it, accidental overwrite is rejected. It also requires the
exact canonical `generated_plan_path` and `plan_digest` from the same session's
`read-plan` receipt. The expected path must exactly equal the write
destination, so identical bytes from one plan cannot authorize another plan.
Immediately before
preservation, the writer hashes the still-held prior-plan fd and rejects any
digest, inode, or path mismatch, including same-inode edits and changes between
read and write. It then atomically moves the current destination without
replacement to a random `gitnexus-plan-backups/` file under the resolved
Git-admin directory and verifies the moved inode and digest against that held
fd. Only then does it publish the new plan with the same atomic no-replace
primitive. A destination that reappears at either boundary is left untouched.
Every newly created plan or vault directory is fsynced and then fsynced into
its containing directory. Every cross-directory preservation move fsyncs both
its source and destination directories before success or a recovery path is
reported. After temporary bytes exist, a failed publication or verification preserves
every available prior, displaced, unpublished, or intended plan in that
Git-admin vault before reporting failure. Each reported recovery is reopened
from a freshly resolved Git root and verified before the error names it as
`git-path:gitnexus-plan-backups/<random-name>`. Resolve that value with
`git rev-parse --git-path gitnexus-plan-backups/<random-name>`; never interpret
it as a repo-relative working-tree path. This remains valid if the held plan
parent was renamed after publication. The writer never reports recovery
through a stale lexical parent and never performs an identity-check-then-unlink
rollback that could delete a racer's replacement. Read-only or unsupported
checkouts produce a blocking error. Callers must not bypass the helper,
redirect to an external path, or weaken these checks.
## Canonical bytes
The `global_dirty_digest.value` is lowercase SHA-256 (without a `sha256:`
prefix) over this byte stream. All textual values are their exact UTF-8 bytes.
`NUL` below is one `0x00` byte.
1. Prefix fields, each followed by NUL, then one additional NUL:
`gitnexus-evidence-provenance`, `schema_version`, `2`.
2. Zero or more records sorted by unsigned lexicographic comparison of the
normalized path's UTF-8 bytes. Locale and filesystem order are forbidden.
3. Each record is `record` + NUL, then the following fixed-order sequence of
`field-name` + NUL + `field-value` + NUL pairs, then one additional NUL:
`path`, `state`, `head_kind`, `index_kind`, `worktree_kind`,
`untracked_kind`, `rename_from`, `rename_to`, `head_digest`,
`index_digest`, `worktree_digest`, `untracked_digest`.
4. The literal `absent` represents every unavailable rename endpoint, object
kind, and layer digest in canonical bytes. It is never an empty string.
The schema's canonicalization literal is exactly
`gitnexus-evidence-provenance-v2 NUL-framed UTF-8 records`. The fixed field
count plus the extra NUL after prefix/record makes framing unambiguous; values
cannot contain NUL. Duplicate normalized paths are rejected.
## Records, renames, and states
The raw dirty set comes from Git porcelain v2 with NUL termination, all
untracked files, submodule inspection enabled, a fixed 50% rename threshold,
and both `diff.renameLimit=0` and `status.renameLimit=0`, so repository config
cannot cap rename candidates. Raw porcelain facts that share a path are merged
into one canonical record. A rename contributes two endpoint facts:
- old endpoint: `path=<old>`, `rename_from=absent`, `rename_to=<new>`;
- new endpoint: `path=<new>`, `rename_from=<old>`, `rename_to=absent`.
Both normally have state `renamed`; record sorting, not old/new role,
determines order. A worktree-dirty rename destination or any endpoint that also
has another fact is `mixed`, with rename metadata retained. When either endpoint
is cited, the cited manifest expands to include both.
Ordinary `XY` status maps to `mixed` when index and worktree columns are both
dirty, otherwise `deleted` for a deletion, `staged` for index-only change, and
`unstaged` for worktree-only change. `?` is `untracked`. Multiple distinct
facts for the same path become `mixed`; a staged deletion plus a recreated file
therefore retains HEAD/index facts while the filesystem object is recorded in
the untracked layer. `? child/` is Git's embedded-directory marker: the trailing
slash is removed before path normalization and `child` is materialized as one
bounded directory object. A cited path outside the dirty set is `clean`,
`untracked` when it exists only outside Git layers, or `absent` when no layer
exists.
## Object and digest rules
Every present layer digest is `sha256:<lowercase-hex>`:
- HEAD regular/symlink: SHA-256 of the exact Git blob bytes. HEAD directory:
SHA-256 of the exact raw Git tree bytes. HEAD gitlink: SHA-256 of the ASCII
object ID stored by the tree.
- Index regular/symlink: SHA-256 of the stage-0 Git blob bytes. Index gitlink:
SHA-256 of its ASCII object ID. The index has no directory layer. Any
non-stage-0 entry is rejected.
- Tracked worktree regular: raw file bytes, opened without following symlinks.
Symlink: raw link-target bytes. Gitlink: ASCII object ID at the checked-out
nested HEAD, but only after `rev-parse --show-toplevel` proves that the
directory itself is the nested repository root, `HEAD` resolves there, and
porcelain v2 reports no staged, unstaged, untracked, or ignored nested changes. The
same root, HEAD, and clean-status proof is repeated by the mutation guard. A
dirty, empty, uninitialized, or parent-falling-through gitlink fails closed.
Directory: the v1 directory stream described below.
- A path absent from both HEAD and index places the filesystem object in the
`untracked` layer and marks `worktree` absent. A Git-backed path places it in
`worktree` and marks `untracked` absent. A missing layer uses literal
`absent` for both kind and digest; an empty file is the SHA-256 of zero bytes.
Filesystem directory bytes use prefix fields
`gitnexus-evidence-directory`, `schema_version`, `1`, the same NUL framing,
and recursive entries sorted by unsigned UTF-8 relative-path bytes. Each entry
has fixed fields `path`, `kind`, `digest`. A single bottom-up filesystem walk
visits each node once and returns each child digest plus the flattened subtree
needed to preserve those canonical bytes; links are never followed. When the
directory is proven to be an exact nested Git top-level, only its administrative
`.git` entry is excluded. Every other child, including working files and nested
directories, remains evidence.
Each directory object is bounded to 10,000 visited entries, depth 256, and 256
MiB of regular-file content. Exceeding a bound fails closed. These bounds apply
independently to each top-level directory object materialized by a record.
HEAD objects are read only from the full object ID captured at snapshot start;
the symbolic `HEAD` name is never re-resolved for layers. Index layers are
parsed from one captured stage-0 listing. The helper guards the corresponding
HEAD/ref/reflog controls and raw index file, compares the captured listing at
the end, and rejects ordinary A-to-B-to-A mutations instead of accepting
mixed-era layers.
Regular files are read through an `O_NOFOLLOW` descriptor with before/after
identity checks. Symlinks use lstat/readlink/lstat; directories record identity
before and after their inventory. The helper also compares raw porcelain-v2
status and HEAD at the start and end, then rechecks filesystem guards. An
absent cited path holds a no-follow descriptor for the nearest existing parent
and records the first missing component or leaf; that anchored absence is
checked both before and after the final Git status pass, so a newly created
ignored path cannot evade porcelain. Any observed race rejects the snapshot
rather than emitting mixed-era evidence.

# PR Review with GitNexus
## When to Use
- "Review this PR"
- "What does PR #42 change?"
- "Is this safe to merge?"
- "What's the blast radius of this PR?"
- "Are there missing tests for this PR?"
- Reviewing someone else's code changes before merge
## Workflow
```
1. gh pr diff <number> → Get the raw diff
2. detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"}) → Map diff to affected flows
3. For each changed symbol:
impact({target: "<symbol>", direction: "upstream"}) → Blast radius per change
4. context({name: "<key symbol>"}) → Understand callers/callees
5. READ gitnexus://repo/{name}/processes → Check affected execution flows
6. Summarize findings with risk assessment
```
> If "Index is stale" → run `node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze` in terminal before reviewing.
## Checklist
```
- [ ] Fetch PR diff (gh pr diff or git diff base...head)
- [ ] detect_changes to map changes to affected execution flows
- [ ] impact on each non-trivial changed symbol
- [ ] Review d=1 items (WILL BREAK) — are callers updated?
- [ ] context on key changed symbols to understand full picture
- [ ] Check if affected processes have test coverage
- [ ] Assess overall risk level
- [ ] Write review summary with findings
```
## Review Dimensions
| Dimension | How GitNexus Helps |
| --- | --- |
| **Correctness** | `context` shows callers — are they all compatible with the change? |
| **Blast radius** | `impact` shows d=1/d=2/d=3 dependents — anything missed? |
| **Completeness** | `detect_changes` shows all affected flows — are they all handled? |
| **Test coverage** | `impact({includeTests: true})` shows which tests touch changed code |
| **Breaking changes** | d=1 upstream items that aren't updated in the PR = potential breakage |
## Risk Assessment
| Signal | Risk |
| --- | --- |
| Changes touch <3 symbols, 0-1 processes | LOW |
| Changes touch 3-10 symbols, 2-5 processes | MEDIUM |
| Changes touch >10 symbols or many processes | HIGH |
| Changes touch auth, payments, or data integrity code | CRITICAL |
| d=1 callers exist outside the PR diff | Potential breakage — flag it |
## Tools
**detect_changes** — map PR diff to affected execution flows:
```
detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"})
→ Changed: 8 symbols in 4 files
→ Affected processes: CheckoutFlow, RefundFlow, WebhookHandler
→ Risk: MEDIUM
```
**impact** — blast radius per changed symbol:
```
impact({target: "validatePayment", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1 (WILL BREAK):
- processCheckout (src/checkout.ts:42) [CALLS, 100%]
- webhookHandler (src/webhooks.ts:15) [CALLS, 100%]
→ d=2 (LIKELY AFFECTED):
- checkoutRouter (src/routes/checkout.ts:22) [CALLS, 95%]
```
**impact with tests** — check test coverage:
```
impact({target: "validatePayment", direction: "upstream", includeTests: true})
→ Tests that cover this symbol:
- validatePayment.test.ts [direct]
- checkout.integration.test.ts [via processCheckout]
```
**context** — understand a changed symbol's role:
```
context({name: "validatePayment"})
→ Incoming calls: processCheckout, webhookHandler
→ Outgoing calls: verifyCard, fetchRates
→ Processes: CheckoutFlow (step 3/7), RefundFlow (step 1/5)
```
## Example: "Review PR #42"
```
1. gh pr diff 42 > /tmp/pr42.diff
→ 4 files changed: payments.ts, checkout.ts, types.ts, utils.ts
2. detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"})
→ Changed symbols: validatePayment, PaymentInput, formatAmount
→ Affected processes: CheckoutFlow, RefundFlow
→ Risk: MEDIUM
3. impact({target: "validatePayment", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1: processCheckout, webhookHandler (WILL BREAK)
→ webhookHandler is NOT in the PR diff — potential breakage!
4. impact({target: "PaymentInput", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1: validatePayment (in PR), createPayment (NOT in PR)
→ createPayment uses the old PaymentInput shape — breaking change!
5. context({name: "formatAmount"})
→ Called by 12 functions — but change is backwards-compatible (added optional param)
6. Review summary:
- MEDIUM risk — 3 changed symbols affect 2 execution flows
- BUG: webhookHandler calls validatePayment but isn't updated for new signature
- BUG: createPayment depends on PaymentInput type which changed
- OK: formatAmount change is backwards-compatible
- Tests: checkout.test.ts covers processCheckout path, but no webhook test
```

in the canonical files, never in the wrappers. The review is read-only — it never edits,
commits, or posts.
## Engineering planning & execution (`/gitnexus-plan` · `/gitnexus-work` · `/gitnexus-review` · `/gitnexus-lfg`)
Four canonical, CLI-neutral skill specs under `.claude/skills/` (Claude Code invokes
them as slash commands; Codex or any other agent reading this file should read the
named SKILL.md and follow it directly — user-level Codex prompts are documented in the
plan/work/lfg skill READMEs):
- **`gitnexus-plan/SKILL.md`** — deep, implementation-ready plan for a code change:
GitNexus graph intelligence for navigation, statement-level PDG slices for behavioral
constraints, targeted source reads for verification. Output lands in `docs/plans/`
with a reusable implementation context pack (section 11). Planning-only — it never
edits code (index freshness refreshes via `analyze --index-only` are the one
permitted state change). Interactive runs ask up front how deep to go
(quick / standard / deep); Deepen mode strengthens an existing plan in place.
- **`gitnexus-work/SKILL.md`** — executes a gitnexus-plan as verified atomic commits:
drift-checks the plan's evidence pin against HEAD, `impact` before every symbol
edit, tests from the plan's scenarios, `detect_changes` before every commit.
- **`gitnexus-review/SKILL.md`** — read-only GitNexus review of a PR URL/number,
branch or commit range, or local staged/unstaged/untracked changes. It pins exact
SHAs, aligns the graph and checkout, runs a PDG-backed taint pass on trust-boundary
diffs, scales to per-domain expert lenses from the graph's clusters, and reports
evidence-backed findings.
- **`gitnexus-lfg/SKILL.md`** — pipeline orchestrator: plan (depth asked up front) →
blocking user gate (proceed or stop) → work → `gitnexus-review`.
The family ships with the npm package (`gitnexus/skills/`, installed to editor targets
by `gitnexus setup`) and the Claude Code plugin; review also has a standalone Cursor
mirror. `gitnexus/test/unit/shipped-skills-sync.test.ts` guards the copies. Token savings of the workflow are measurable with
`eval/workflow_bench/` (real headless CLI runs, free-model routing supported — see its README).
## Changelog
| Date | Version | Change |
|------|---------|--------|
| 2026-07-16 | 1.13.0 | `gitnexus-plan` asks plan depth up front (quick/standard/deep) in interactive runs; `gitnexus-lfg` gate slimmed to proceed/stop (Deepen stays as the route-back mechanism). |
| 2026-07-16 | 1.12.0 | Renamed `gitnexus-pr-review` to `gitnexus-review`; added PR URL/number, branch/range, and local-change targets plus install migration (setup warns on a legacy `gitnexus-pr-review` dir and leaves it in place; uninstall removes it). |
| 2026-07-11 | 1.11.0 | Skill family shipped via npm skills/ + plugin (sync-guarded); added eval/workflow_bench token-savings benchmark. |
| 2026-07-11 | 1.10.0 | Added `gitnexus-work` (plan executor) and `gitnexus-lfg` (plan → deepen/work gate → review pipeline) skills; section renamed to Engineering planning & execution. |
| 2026-07-11 | 1.9.0 | Added Engineering planning (`/gitnexus-plan`) section; registered the `gitnexus-plan` skill (`.claude/skills/gitnexus-plan/`). |
| 2026-05-22 | 1.8.0 | Kotlin added to `MIGRATED_LANGUAGES` (registry-primary call resolution by default). Closes #1756 (companion-vs-instance dispatch) and #1757 (lambda scopes); refs #1746. RFC §6.4 corpus criterion waived (corpus-mode wiring is #927-scope); fixture criterion met. |
| 2026-04-23 | 1.7.0 | TypeScript added to `MIGRATED_LANGUAGES` (registry-primary call resolution by default). |
| 2026-04-20 | 1.6.0 | Added scope-resolution pipeline pointer (RFC #909 Ring 3); Python migrated to registry-primary. |

- **MUST warn the user** if impact analysis returns HIGH or CRITICAL risk before proceeding with edits.
- When exploring unfamiliar code, use `query({search_query: "concept"})` to find execution flows instead of grepping. It returns process-grouped results ranked by relevance.
- When you need full context on a specific symbol — callers, callees, which execution flows it participates in — use `context({name: "symbolName"})`.

# Workflow benchmark — observe the token savings
Measures whether the `gitnexus-plan``gitnexus-work` engineering workflow
actually saves tokens versus a baseline agent on the same tasks, using real
headless Claude Code sessions. Nothing is estimated: every number comes from
the CLI's own final event in its parent-captured `--output-format stream-json`
report.
## What it compares
| Arm | Sessions | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `workflow` | `gitnexus-plan` on the task, then `gitnexus-work` on the produced plan | The skills must be installed (`gitnexus setup`, or repo-local `.claude/skills/`) |
| `candidate_workflow` | same sessions as `workflow`, with a candidate skill overlay | Paired with `workflow` on the same task/ref/model |
| `workflow_direct` | one `gitnexus-work` direct-mode session | The middle option — execution discipline without a planning pass |
| `candidate_workflow_direct` | same session as `workflow_direct`, with a candidate skill overlay | Paired with `workflow_direct` on the same task/ref/model |
| `ce_workflow` | `ce-plan` on the task, then `ce-work` on the produced plan | External comparator: the explicitly supplied, pinned compound-engineering plugin's plan→work family |
| `ce_workflow_direct` | one `ce-work` direct-mode session | External comparator paired with `workflow_direct` |
| `review` | one `gitnexus-review` session over local uncommitted changes | The task's `setup` applies the diff under review; the review is written to `review-output.md` so `verify` can gate on it |
| `ce_review` | one `ce-code-review` session over the same changes | External comparator paired with `review` |
| `baseline` | one session with the identical task text | `--disallowedTools Skill` so it cannot borrow the workflow; same repo, same MCP tools |
| `baseline_nomcp` | like baseline, graph tools also disallowed | Separates the workflow-discipline question from the GitNexus-tools question (off by default) |
Every arm runs in a fresh detached git worktree of the task's `ref`, once per
`--runs`. The model-visible `verify` command is recorded as
`authored_tests_passed`, but cannot certify its own solution: `resolved` also
requires the task's harness-owned hidden behavioral oracle to pass. Token
savings on a failed task are flagged, not celebrated, and diff churn
(files/+insertions/deletions vs the starting commit) is recorded as a cheap
over-engineering proxy. Task `class` labels (trivial → investigation →
cross-module) make the report readable as a routing table: the boundary where
`workflow` starts beating `workflow_direct` and `baseline` is the boundary
lfg's gate and work's direct-mode triage should encode.
## Quick start
```bash
cd eval
export GITNEXUS_BENCH_AUTH_TOKEN="$ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"
uv run --locked --extra dev python -m workflow_bench.runner \
--tasks workflow_bench/tasks.scenarios.yaml --runs 3 \
--model claude-sonnet-4-20250514
```
Scenarios marked `expensive: true` are skipped unless
`--include-expensive` is supplied. The report names both selected and skipped
tasks so an omitted cell cannot be mistaken for evidence.
CE comparator arms never discover a user-level plugin. Supply an exact plugin
release explicitly; both flags are mandatory whenever any `ce_*` arm is
selected:
```bash
uv run --locked --extra dev python -m workflow_bench.runner \
--tasks workflow_bench/tasks.scenarios.yaml --runs 3 \
--model claude-sonnet-4-20250514 \
--arms workflow ce_workflow \
--ce-plugin-dir /opt/operator-input/compound-engineering-3.19.0 \
--ce-plugin-version 3.19.0
```
The runner verifies the manifest version, copies only the plugin manifests,
skills, scripts, and assets into a bounded no-symlink snapshot, and mounts
that snapshot read-only only for CE arms. Every CE result records its exact
plugin version and content-manifest digest.
Output: `results/wfbench-<timestamp>/results.jsonl` (every run, with session
ids for transcript drill-down) and `report.md` (medians per task per arm,
plus a savings row: input / cache / output tokens, cost, wall time).
## Trust model — fail-closed Linux containment
Task files and candidate prose remain untrusted executable inputs. Every
setup, verifier, incumbent, and candidate cell therefore runs in a
preflighted Bubblewrap boundary with a private home/config/temp, a
self-contained clone, a PID namespace, bounded process-tree ownership, and a
deny-by-default environment. Task-declared dependency roots are mounted
read-only, while graph assets are rebuilt by the harness as described below.
Claude runs in bare,
`dontAsk` mode with strict clone-local MCP configuration; Bash children do
not inherit the model credential and their network sandbox denies all
domains.
Prebuilt task `.gitnexus` assets are rejected. For each task commit, the
harness creates the deterministic parentless snapshot first, removes every
analyzer-visible path or stored source reference to the benchmark harness,
neutralizes target-controlled GitNexus config/ignore files, and builds one
fresh PDG index offline with `--pdg --index-only --no-stats`. It then proves
that neither whole graph nodes nor relationships contain a harness marker and
caches only the bound metadata/database assets for reuse by paired arms.
Each selected task also declares a bounded hidden `oracle` command and file
set. The harness captures those regular, non-symlink files into an immutable
in-memory snapshot before any arm runs and binds the command, paths, sizes, and
raw bytes into the task digest. Before any task asset or model session, each
disposable clone that contains the benchmark harness is rewritten to a clean,
parentless snapshot without `eval/workflow_bench`; all original refs, reflogs,
and unreachable Git objects are pruned so `git show` cannot recover the hidden
bytes. Only after the model exits (and after the authored-test signal is
collected) does the harness materialize the oracle beneath a private host
root, mount it read-only at a random workspace sibling, and supply that mount
through `GITNEXUS_BENCH_ORACLE_ROOT`. This layout preserves hidden tests'
`../gitnexus` imports as the credited candidate checkout. Authored and hidden
verifiers run with the complete workspace read-only and networking unshared;
hidden stdout/stderr is never persisted. The harness re-checks every oracle
byte and erases the mountpoint before churn/patch capture. Shipped Vitest
oracles use the staged, digest-bound `vitest.config.mts`; a candidate cannot
replace repo test config or setup hooks to make the hidden test vacuously pass.
The hidden command invokes the read-only dependency's Vitest binary directly,
without an `npx` configuration/resolution layer.
Every evaluated repo-local skill root is over-mounted read-only for the full
model session, and an immutable empty user-level skills directory prevents a
writable `$HOME` skill from shadowing it. Skill-use evidence comes only from
the bounded stream captured directly from Claude stdout by the parent. The
runner parses every event through EOF, requires one final result, correlates
an exact Skill request ID with one later successful result, structurally
redacts the event objects, and stores the canonical redacted JSONL with a
digest. Files written beneath the agent's `$HOME` are never trusted as
evidence.
Bare mode is deliberately non-interactive: it does not consult a stored
Claude login/keychain or `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN`. Supply one explicit API or
proxy key through `GITNEXUS_BENCH_AUTH_TOKEN` (preferred) or `--auth-token`;
the harness maps it to `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` only for the trusted Claude parent
and scrubs it from agent-launched tools.
The trusted Claude CLI still needs outbound access to the explicitly supplied
model endpoint. This is not a network broker, so the CLI itself retains that
egress; agent-launched tools do not. Missing Bubblewrap, unsupported hosts,
invalid mounts, or namespace preflight failure stop before model invocation.
Native benchmark execution is therefore Linux/WSL2-only. Evidence assembly
and hand-authored overlay preparation can happen elsewhere, but
`--initial-overlay` does not bypass containment.
## Prompt and skill evolution loop
Prompts age as models and tool harnesses change. Treat the current skills and
router thresholds as an incumbent policy, not permanent truth. Candidate
changes run offline in the same throwaway clones as the incumbent; production
skills never rewrite themselves from a live task.
Build an overlay that mirrors only the canonical repo-local skill paths:
```text
/tmp/gn-skill-candidate/
└── .claude/skills/
├── gitnexus-plan/SKILL.md
└── gitnexus-work/SKILL.md
```
The overlay may contain Markdown files from either of those two skill
trees. The runner rejects every other path, including source, test, and MCP
configuration files, so a candidate cannot improve its score by changing the
task or verifier. Arm selection is derived from the touched skill and must be
exact: a plan-only overlay runs the workflow pair; any work overlay runs both
workflow and direct-work pairs. Subsets and unrelated extra pairs fail before
paid work. For a work overlay:
```bash
cd eval
uv run --locked --extra dev python -m workflow_bench.runner \
--tasks workflow_bench/tasks.scenarios.yaml \
--runs 3 --model claude-sonnet-4-20250514 \
--arms workflow candidate_workflow \
workflow_direct candidate_workflow_direct \
--candidate-overlay /tmp/gn-skill-candidate
```
Candidate runs start from the same task commit, then receive a clean ephemeral
commit containing the overlay. `results.jsonl` records the named model, task
commit, task-prompt digest, skill digest, overlay digest, hidden-oracle
command/manifest/content digests, immutable dependency content/manifest
digests, separate authored-test and oracle outcomes,
timestamp, local session ids, and digest-bound parent-captured event-stream
artifacts. Those artifacts are the trajectory evidence: cluster failures and
expensive detours, propose one bounded prompt change, and feed it back as the
next overlay.
When candidate arms are present the runner also writes schema-3
`promotion.json`. It
binds the immutable overlay digest, benchmark model, truthful candidate origin
(a named proposer model or `manual-initial-overlay`), selected
task definitions, resolved commits, and exact hidden-oracle bytes/commands,
immutable dependency bytes, committed base digest of every apply
destination, exact required arms, thresholds, and evidence expiry. Its default
deterministic gate is deliberately conservative:
- at least 3 paired VALID runs per task, zero excluded runs in either arm
(session/infra-error rows therefore block promotion), and a named model;
- the candidate must pass the hidden oracle on every valid run for every task;
- no per-task resolution-rate regression (quality is lexicographically first);
- promotion by resolution needs a margin of at least 2 resolved runs —
a 1-run difference is noise at this run count and falls through to the
efficiency comparison;
- with equal quality, at least 5% median improvement on the promotion metric
(default `cost_usd` — the only CLI-reported number that includes subagent
spend; token metrics count only the main-loop session and flatter
subagent-heavy candidates, so selecting one stamps a warning into
`promotion.json`);
- no individual task may regress the selected efficiency metric by more than
20%.
Tune the efficiency signal with `--promotion-metric` and the three
`--promotion-*` thresholds. Applying requires one unique `promote` decision
for every bound candidate arm. The driver then stages every canonical and
shipped mirror, verifies that all destination bytes still match the bound
bases, replaces them as one compare-and-swap set, verifies byte parity, and
rolls every landed replacement back on failure or interruption.
`keep_incumbent` and
`insufficient_evidence` become the next learning queue; their raw
`results.jsonl` rows carry the `session_ids` of the trajectories to inspect.
Re-run the paired suite whenever the named model or tool harness changes, and
at least every 90 days otherwise. This is prompt-policy optimization using
verified agent trajectories as reward evidence; it is intentionally not
online model-weight RL. The same records can feed a later offline RL pipeline
without weakening today's deterministic promotion boundary.
### Closing the loop automatically (`evolve.py`)
`workflow_bench.evolve` automates the three manual arrows — propose,
benchmark, apply — without moving the trust boundary:
```bash
cd eval
uv run --locked --extra dev python -m workflow_bench.evolve \
--tasks workflow_bench/tasks.scenarios.yaml \
--model claude-sonnet-4-20250514 --generations 2 \
--seed-results results/wfbench-<prior-run> # optional gen-0 evidence
```
Each generation: a confined **proposer** session reads the incumbent plan/work
skills, the prior generation's `results.jsonl`
loser rows, their session transcripts and patches, and the learning queue,
then writes ONE bounded candidate overlay plus a reviewer-facing
`proposal.md`. The overlay is re-validated by `candidate_overlay_files`
(same boundary: Markdown under the plan/work trees, nothing else), frozen,
and exercised only by its exact required pairs. Task refs are resolved once
before generation zero and the immutable task bindings are forwarded to every
generated runner invocation, so a moving branch cannot change later evidence.
The deterministic gate then decides. Promotion application rejects older
pre-oracle evidence schemas. `promote` stops the loop; with `--apply`
the authorized frozen bytes
are transactionally applied to the canonical
`.claude/skills/` trees and their shipped mirrors as an ordinary
working-tree diff — committing, CI (`shipped-skills-sync`,
`skills-steering`), and the PR merge stay human. `keep_incumbent` feeds that
generation's trajectories to the next proposer. `--initial-overlay` skips
the generation-0 proposer to benchmark a hand-written candidate;
`--proposer-model` upgrades only the diagnosis session.
**Learning queue.** Live plan/work skill runs never self-edit (see each
skill's "Skill feedback" section) — instead they may append one-line JSON notes to
`workflow_bench/learnings.jsonl` (gitignored, machine-local like the
transcripts they complement). The proposer reads the queue as hints, not
ground truth: a learning only reaches a shipped skill by surviving the same
paired benchmark as any other candidate. Legacy review/LFG rows are ignored;
those skills do not yet have honest candidate lanes or promotion gates.
Run the driver on the existing re-evaluation triggers (model/harness change,
90-day staleness), not on a tight schedule — every generation costs ≥3 paired
runs per task, and `--generations` is the only loop bound.
## Free-model setup (no paid tokens)
Headless Claude Code honors `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL`, and litellm (already an
eval dependency) can proxy its Anthropic-compatible `/v1/messages` to a model
that costs nothing — a hosted OpenRouter `:free` variant or a fully local
Ollama model. Config template: `free-model.litellm.yaml`.
```bash
# 1. Choose a proxy master key and start the proxy
# (pick/edit a model route in the yaml first; keep the proxy on loopback —
# anyone who can reach the port with this key can spend the backend quota)
export LITELLM_MASTER_KEY="$(openssl rand -hex 16)"
uv run --locked --with 'litellm[proxy]' litellm --config workflow_bench/free-model.litellm.yaml --port 4000
# 2. Point the benchmark at it
uv run --locked --extra dev python -m workflow_bench.runner \
--tasks workflow_bench/tasks.scenarios.yaml --runs 3 \
--base-url http://localhost:4000 --auth-token "$LITELLM_MASTER_KEY" --model free-coder
```
Caveats, honestly:
- Both arms run on the same model, so the *comparison* stays fair at any
quality level — but small free models follow skills less reliably, so
expect lower resolve rates and noisier savings than on frontier models.
Treat free-model runs as directional; confirm headline numbers with a
small paid run.
- Through a proxy `cost_usd` reads ~0, and the CLI's token counts are NOT a
substitute "real metric": they cover only the main-loop session, so
subagent spend is invisible to both. For efficiency ranking, prefer a paid
run gated on `cost_usd`, or sum per-session usage from the transcripts
(`~/.claude/projects/<cwd-slug>/<session_id>.jsonl`, deduplicating events
that share one `message.id`).
- OpenRouter `:free` variants are rate-limited (~50 req/day on a fresh
account); local Ollama has no limits.
- Codex users: `codex exec --oss` runs local models for free too, but this
runner is Claude-Code-first; a codex engine is a straightforward extension
(parse its `--json` usage events).
## Historical ground base (2026-07-11, Claude Code 2.1.207, unnamed model, n=1/cell)
These figures predate mandatory model provenance and are retained only as
historical calibration. They are not eligible promotion evidence and must not
be combined with current named-model runs.
Three task classes × three arms, single-repo (GitNexus itself). **Every arm
resolved every task** — at this difficulty, pass/fail quality is saturated
and the comparison is pure cost:
| task (class) | arm | resolved | cost $ | wall | turns | vs baseline cost |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| trivial-version-alias | workflow | 1/1 | 9.16 | 16m | 63 | 333% |
| trivial-version-alias | baseline | 1/1 | 2.11 | 2.8m | 16 | — |
| inv-bug-pdg-note | workflow | 1/1 | 14.56 | 21m | 83 | 331% |
| inv-bug-pdg-note | workflow_direct | 1/1 | 5.23 | 7.5m | 32 | 55% |
| inv-bug-pdg-note | baseline | 1/1 | 3.38 | 4.7m | 22 | — |
| inv-feature-list-repos-filter | workflow | 1/1 | 13.22 | 19m | 84 | 211% |
| inv-feature-list-repos-filter | workflow_direct | 1/1 | 4.87 | 4.8m | 38 | 15% (wall +14% faster) |
| inv-feature-list-repos-filter | baseline | 1/1 | 4.25 | 5.5m | 32 | — |
What the ground base says, honestly:
- **The full plan→work workflow never paid for itself at this task scale**
(tasks a baseline agent finishes in ≤35 turns). Its fixed cost — freshness
gate incl. analyzer rebuild + re-index, a full 13-section plan, work-phase
re-anchoring — is ~$911 per task and needs much larger tasks, plan-reuse
(one plan, several executors/sessions), or plan-as-deliverable flows to
amortize.
- **workflow_direct is close to baseline** (15% to 55% cost, once slightly
faster wall) — the execution discipline (impact-before-edit,
detect_changes-before-commit) is cheap. It produced noticeably more test
coverage than baseline for near-equal cost on the feature task.
- **Quality didn't differentiate because nothing failed.** The regime where
the workflow should win on *resolve rate* — cross-module tasks where
baselines flail — is the unmeasured cell (`cross-module-parse-retry`), and
the next thing to measure, ideally with `--runs 3+` on a free backend.
- Caveats: n=1 per cell, one repo, one model; churn numbers from this run
predate the intent-to-add/exclude-plans churn fix, so they are not
comparable across arms and are omitted above.
Routing implication (to revisit as cells fill in): for tasks up to this
size, `gitnexus-work` direct mode or a plain agent is the cost-optimal
route; reserve full `gitnexus-plan``gitnexus-work` for cross-module work,
multi-session execution, or when the plan document itself is a deliverable.
If a future run shows the workflow flattering itself here, distrust the run.
### Cross-module cell (same day, optimized skills, n=1)
The hardest class — retry-with-backoff across the worker-pool/pipeline
seams, transient-vs-deterministic classification:
| arm | resolved | cost $ | wall | turns | churn |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| workflow | 1/1 | 18.32 | 37m | 107 | 4/+373/17 |
| **workflow_direct** | 1/1 | **9.53** | **15m** | **52** | 11/+244/66 |
| baseline | 1/1 | 18.03 | 34m | 98 | 6/+345/69 |
(The workflow_direct row is the clean re-run under clone isolation — the
original was contaminated, see the integrity note below.)
**This is the cell where the discipline pays.** `workflow_direct` — the
execution skill without a planning pass — beat a plain agent by **47% cost
and 56% wall time** on the hardest class while resolving: impact-first
navigation and gated commits prevented the flailing that baseline's 98
turns represent. The full workflow's premium vanished (1.6% vs baseline;
211%..333% on smaller classes) — fixed costs amortize here, with a less
destructive diff and a durable plan artifact — but it didn't beat direct
mode on any measured axis with the plan consumed only once. Resolve rate
stayed tied across all cells; the savings story belongs to the execution
discipline, and the planning pass is bought for its artifact (multi-session
reuse, review, handoff), not for same-session token savings.
**Benchmark integrity note (why churn earns its keep):** the original
`workflow_direct` cell reported an impossible 28-turn/$4.71 solve with churn
byte-identical to the workflow arm — because `git worktree add` shares the
ref namespace, the workflow arm's slug branch survived worktree removal, and
the direct arm found and adopted the finished work. Fixed by giving every
arm an isolated `git clone --no-local --no-hardlinks` with no object
alternates (agent-created refs and storage die with the clone);
the leaked branch was deleted and the cell re-measured. Treat identical
churn fingerprints across arms as a contamination alarm.
### Optimization re-measurement (same day, commit 830a0459)
After category-priced plan forms (compact ≤80 lines + mini-pack),
category-priced freshness (`accept` for compact classes), per-category turn
budgets, and the work-phase HEAD==pin fast path, the same
`inv-bug-pdg-note` workflow cell re-measured (n=1):
| | ground base | optimized | delta |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| resolved | ✅ | ✅ | — |
| cost $ | 14.56 | 11.70 | **20%** |
| turns | 83 | 72 | 13% |
| output tokens | 59,789 | 53,345 | 11% |
| cache_read | 6.64M | 5.07M | 24% |
| wall | 21m | 25m | +15% |
Verified in-transcript: the compact form fired (115-line plan vs 209 for a
simpler task pre-optimization), the plan session dropped 72→49 turns, and
NO analyzer rebuild/re-index executed. All savings came from the plan side;
this run's work session drew a long test-debugging tail (hence the wall
regression) — single-run variance cuts both ways. The optimizations narrow
the gap but do not flip the regime: the workflow remains ~3.5× baseline on
this task class, so the routing rule above stands unchanged.
## Writing good tasks
See `tasks.scenarios.yaml`. Small enough to finish headless, real enough to
require investigation — the workflow's savings come from *not re-reading and
not re-investigating*, which trivial tasks never exercise. Keep `verify` as a
model-visible authored-test quality signal, and add an independent `oracle`
whose source files live under `workflow_bench/oracles/`. Oracle commands must
run only files staged beneath `$GITNEXUS_BENCH_ORACLE_ROOT`; for Vitest, include
the shared `vitest.config.mts` as an oracle file and pass it explicitly with
`--config`. Prefer `verify` commands that use the repo's own npm scripts (they
carry build pre-hooks).
## Relation to the SWE-bench harness
The rest of `eval/` benchmarks GitNexus *tools* inside a litellm agent loop
(baseline vs graph-enhanced). This module benchmarks the *skill workflow*
inside the real CLI harness those skills ship for. Different question, same
spirit: measure, don't assume.

The benchmark runs model sessions and task-authored commands that may create

# Scenario suite for the gitnexus workflow benchmark — the ground-base matrix.
#
# Task fields:
# id: short slug used in reports
# class: task class for cost/quality routing analysis. The suite spans:
# trivial → investigation-bug → investigation-feature → cross-module
# repo: path to a git repo that is GitNexus-indexed
# ref: git ref benchmarked (fresh detached worktree per arm per run)
# setup: optional shell command run in the fresh worktree first
# (task-specific preparation; dependencies are immutable mounts)
# prompt: the engineering task, phrased once, given verbatim to every arm.
# Prescribe the test file path — that keeps `verify` deterministic.
# verify: model-visible authored-test command (recorded as a separate signal)
# oracle: harness-owned hidden files + command; oracle success is also
# required for resolved and files are staged only after the session
# expensive: optional boolean; true scenarios require --include-expensive
# sandbox_dependencies: repository-local dependencies mounted read-only
#
# Arms (runner --arms): workflow (plan→work), workflow_direct (work skill,
# no plan), baseline (no skills, MCP allowed), baseline_nomcp (no skills, no
# graph tools). candidate_workflow and candidate_workflow_direct apply a
# skill-only --candidate-overlay and must be paired with their incumbent arm.
# Comparing workflow vs workflow_direct vs baseline locates the task-complexity
# boundary where each mode pays for itself — that boundary is the routing rule
# lfg's gate and work's direct-mode triage encode.
#
# GitNexus scenarios build one graph from a history-pruned, parentless clone and
# cache only that sanitized graph for every arm. The target repository's
# prebuilt .gitnexus directory is never copied. Three declared dependency trees
# are mounted read-only; missing assets fail before model execution.

# gitnexus-lfg — plan → gate → work → review
Thin pipeline orchestrator over three existing skills: `gitnexus-plan`
produces the plan (asking up front how deep to go), the user chooses at a
blocking gate to proceed or stop (an explicit deepen request is still
honored), `gitnexus-work` executes it as verified atomic commits, and
`gitnexus-review` reviews the result (the open PR if one exists, else the
branch diff against the default branch). One bounded fix cycle for review
findings, then a final report. It never pushes or opens a PR on its own.
## Invocation
| CLI | How to invoke |
|-----|---------------|
| **Claude Code** | `/gitnexus-lfg <task description>` or `/gitnexus-lfg docs/plans/<plan>.md` |
| **Codex CLI** | Ask: "run the gitnexus pipeline on <task>" (Codex reads `AGENTS.md`), or install the skill user-level (below) |
### Codex (user-level install)
```
cp -r .claude/skills/gitnexus-lfg ~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-lfg
```
Optionally, for an explicit slash command, create
`~/.codex/prompts/gitnexus-lfg.md`:
```markdown
---
description: GitNexus pipeline — plan (depth asked up front), user gate, work, PR review
argument-hint: <task description or plan path>
---
Use the gitnexus-lfg skill for: $ARGUMENTS
Read `~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-lfg/SKILL.md` (prefer the repo copy at
`.claude/skills/gitnexus-lfg/SKILL.md` when present) and follow its lanes in
order, invoking the real gitnexus-plan / gitnexus-work / gitnexus-review
skills for each lane. Stop at the plan gate for the user's choice.
```
## The three lanes
| Lane | Skill | Gate |

## Threshold governance (maintainers)
The Lane 1 planning boundary (~35 turns) is a promoted benchmark policy from
the GitNexus repository's `eval/workflow_bench/` paired candidate loop.
Re-evaluate it offline whenever the named model or tool harness changes, and
at least every 90 days; update the SKILL.md threshold only after the
deterministic promotion gate shows no quality regression. Reading agents
never self-edit it from a live task.

# gitnexus-lfg — plan → gate → work → review
Thin orchestrator over three existing skills. It adds no engineering logic of
its own — it sequences `gitnexus-plan`, `gitnexus-work`, and
`gitnexus-review`, with the user deciding at the plan gate. Run every lane
by actually invoking the named skill (read its SKILL.md and follow it);
never inline a summary of what the skill would have done.
```
/gitnexus-lfg <task description>
/gitnexus-lfg docs/plans/<existing-plan>.md # skip lane 1, start at the gate
```
## Lane 1 — Plan
**Boundary triage first.** If the task is plainly below the planning
boundary — trivial or small-bounded work an agent finishes in well under ~35
turns (the measured regime where a planning pass costs more than it returns;
measured in the GitNexus repository's `eval/workflow_bench/`) — say so and
offer `gitnexus-work` direct mode as an alternative to the full pipeline
before spending the plan lane. Honor the user's choice.
The threshold is a promoted benchmark policy measured offline, not a
timeless heuristic — never self-edit it from a live task. Its re-evaluation
governance lives in this skill's README.
Otherwise invoke `gitnexus-plan` with the task (knob overrides pass through
verbatim; `gitnexus-plan` owns the up-front depth question — never ask it
again here). If the input is already a plan file path, skip to Lane 2. The
plan lands in `docs/plans/` — record its path; every later lane consumes it.
## Lane 2 — The plan gate (user choice, blocking)
Present the plan's chat summary (objective, proposed changes, sequence, top
risks, open questions, plan path), then ask the user — as a blocking
question (`AskUserQuestion` in Claude Code; a numbered list in chat on CLIs
without a blocking tool):
1. **Proceed to work** — continue to Lane 3.
2. **Stop here** — the plan file is the deliverable; end the pipeline.
Depth was the user's up-front choice in Lane 1, so deepening is not offered
by default — but honor an explicit request for it at the gate: run
`gitnexus-plan` Deepen mode on the plan file and return here with the
strengthened plan, as many times as the user asks. Do not proceed past the
gate without an explicit choice — the gate is the pipeline's only checkpoint
and exists precisely because execution is expensive to unwind.
**Headless / non-interactive runs:** no one can answer the gate, so end the
pipeline after Lane 1 — the plan file is the deliverable (gate option 2) —
and say so in the final report. Never auto-proceed to execution.
## Lane 3 — Work
Invoke `gitnexus-work` with the plan path. It re-anchors the plan at HEAD,
executes the Implementation Sequence as verified atomic commits, refreshes
the knowledge graph when done (its Phase 4), and reports deviations. If it routes back for re-planning (structural drift), run the
Deepen pass and return to the Lane 2 gate rather than pushing through.
## Lane 4 — Review
Invoke `gitnexus-review` on the completed work. Pass an open PR URL/number
when one exists; otherwise pass the current branch. The review skill owns
target resolution, exact-SHA checkout/index alignment, and merge-base
selection. Do not duplicate that logic here. If work left local changes,
pass `local` as a second, separately labeled review surface.
Surface the review verdict and findings to the user. Findings the user
wants fixed: those within `gitnexus-work`'s direct-mode bounds (12 files,
no architectural decisions) → hand to `gitnexus-work` direct mode; anything
larger → offer the plan gate instead (Deepen the plan with the findings, or
stop). Then re-run this lane's review once. On that re-run, do not start
another fix cycle even if findings remain — report them and point the user
at `/gitnexus-work` (or the plan gate) to continue deliberately.
## Final report
One message: plan path, deepen cycles run, commits produced, verification
status, review verdict with unresolved findings, and what (if anything) was
explicitly left undone. The pipeline does not push or open a PR on its own —
offer both as next steps.

# gitnexus-plan — implementation-ready engineering plans
Generates deep, implementation-ready engineering plans by combining GitNexus
repository intelligence, statement-level Program Dependence Graph analysis,
and the agent's native targeted source verification.
## Invocation
| CLI | How to invoke | Adapter file |
| ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------- |
| **Claude Code** | `/gitnexus-plan <task>` | `.claude/skills/gitnexus-plan/SKILL.md` |
| **Codex CLI** | Ask: "run gitnexus-plan for <task>" (Codex reads `AGENTS.md`) — or install the user-level prompt below | `AGENTS.md` § Engineering planning & execution |
| **Any AGENTS.md-aware agent** | Ask it to "read `.claude/skills/gitnexus-plan/SKILL.md` and follow it for <task>" | `AGENTS.md` § Engineering planning & execution |
```
/gitnexus-plan Add retry support to the ingestion pipeline
/gitnexus-plan Fix the stale warm-cache invalidation bug in exportedTypeMap
/gitnexus-plan depth:deep impact_depth:3 Migrate the emit phase to streaming COPY
```
Output: `docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<slug>.md` — a 13-section plan whose
section 11 is a machine-readable **implementation context pack** that a
follow-up agent can consume without re-investigating the repository. Compact
and full packs both include versioned evidence provenance: a canonical global
dirty digest and a sorted, per-layer cited-path manifest. An npm-dependency-free,
versioned Node helper shared byte-for-byte with `gitnexus-work` is the only
supported serializer, so planner and executor hash identical bytes. The same
helper is the only supported existing-plan reader and plan writer. Its
descriptor-anchored `read-plan` receipt binds the canonical path, exact base64
bytes, and SHA-256 digest before Deepen or execution. The writer accepts a repo-relative
`docs/plans/<date>-gitnexus-plan-<slug>.md` destination, rejects symlink
traversal and accidental replacement, and publishes the verified UTF-8
document through a descriptor-anchored atomic no-replace move. Deepen first
requires the exact canonical path and digest from one read receipt, preserves
the prior plan in a verified Git-admin backup, and also publishes without replacement. A safe read/write
failure blocks the operation; there is no
external-output or read-only-checkout fallback.
### Codex (user-level install)
Codex discovers SKILL.md skills from `~/.agents/skills/` (the same path the
other `gitnexus-*` skills install to). To make this skill auto-discoverable in
every Codex session:
```
cp -r .claude/skills/gitnexus-plan ~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-plan
```
Codex prompts are user-level only (not repo-shareable). Optionally, for an
explicit `/gitnexus-plan` slash command, also create
`~/.codex/prompts/gitnexus-plan.md`:
```markdown
---
description: Implementation-ready engineering plan via GitNexus + PDG + source verification
argument-hint: <task description>
---
Use the gitnexus-plan skill for: $ARGUMENTS
Read `~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-plan/SKILL.md` (if this repo has its own copy at
`.claude/skills/gitnexus-plan/SKILL.md`, prefer that one) and follow its phases in
order, loading its `references/` files at the phases that call for them. Planning
only — never edit code; the only repo file you write is the plan document.
```
## Architecture note: how GitNexus and the agent interact
Three layers, strictly ordered:
1. **GitNexus navigates** (`query``context``impact`/`trace`
`cypher` last-resort). The graph answers _where to look_ and _what is
connected_: execution flows, callers/callees, blast radius, related tests.
Every call must answer a named planning question.
2. **PDG constrains** (`pdg_query` controls/flows, `impact {mode:"pdg",
direction, line}` statement slices, `explain` for taint). The
statement-level layers
answer _what gates and feeds the behavior_ inside the few functions the
change centers on. Results are filtered into a bounded slice
(`references/pdg-slice.md`), never dumped.
3. **The agent verifies** (targeted line-range reads). Current source is
authoritative; graph results are navigation hints until verified. On
disagreement: trust source, record the discrepancy, recommend re-indexing.
Token efficiency comes from the **context ledger**
(`references/context-ledger.md`): every query and read is recorded with the
question it answered, and nothing is re-fetched unless the source changed, a
contradiction surfaced, or one of the ledger's defined escalations applies
(summary→detail drill-down, ambiguity narrowing, a changed parameter answering
a new question). The ledger also enforces symbol budgets (5 primary /
20 related by default), pins dirty working-tree evidence as well as HEAD, and
uses progressive disclosure to keep the big schemas out of context until the
phase that needs them.
## Files
| File | Purpose |

## Requirements and graceful degradation
- Requires a GitNexus index; statement-level sections additionally require the
`--pdg` layers.
- Freshness is a gate, priced by category: full-plan categories (refactor,
security, performance, concurrency, architecture) default to
`freshness: strict` — a stale index (or missing PDG layer) is refreshed once with
`analyze --index-only [--pdg]` — run via `node .gitnexus/run.cjs` when the
project has one, else the installed `gitnexus` CLI
(`npm install -g gitnexus`), else `npx gitnexus` — before the graph is relied
on, but only when that runner's provenance is known-current.
Compact-plan categories default to `accept` (source-weighted, refresh only
if a graph claim becomes load-bearing). `--index-only` touches only the
`.gitnexus` store, never repo files. Stale analyzer provenance is a
disclosed **source-weighted limitation**: planning does not rebuild analyzer
output, and it does not use that graph for load-bearing claims.
- PDG layer still unavailable after that → the plan says so and skips
statement-level claims (never reconstructs fake edges).
- No GitNexus at all → fallback mode: targeted grep/read exploration, findings
labelled **source-derived**, with a recommendation to index.
- Reading or publishing a plan requires Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`,
and `O_NOFOLLOW`; publication also requires a validated absolute Python 3
PATH candidate with libc `renameat2(RENAME_NOREPLACE)` support, a
writable target repository, and a shared filesystem for the plan and
Git-admin vault. The writer fails closed when those guarantees are
unavailable; it never redirects the plan elsewhere.
## Limitations
- `pdg_query` is intra-procedural; cross-function flow comes from `explain`
(taint) or `impact {mode:"pdg"}` inter-procedural reach.
- The skill is planning-only by contract: the only repository file it writes
is the plan document, and the only other state it may touch is the
`.gitnexus` index store for a freshness refresh. It must not build
analyzer `dist/` output or mutate source, tests, configuration, benchmark,
or evaluation files. Instruction feedback is chat-only.

# gitnexus-plan — implementation-ready engineering plans
Produce an implementation-ready plan for an engineering task. GitNexus is the
navigation layer (where to look), statement-level PDG is the constraint layer
(what gates and feeds the behavior), and your native targeted source reads are
the verification layer (what is actually true right now). The output is a plan
document plus a compact, machine-readable **implementation context pack**
that a follow-up implementation agent (`gitnexus-work`, or any executor) can
consume without repeating the investigation.
```
/gitnexus-plan <task description>
/gitnexus-plan impact_depth:3 depth:deep <task description> # knob overrides, see Configuration
```
**This skill plans. It never implements.** Do not modify production code,
tests, or configuration while running it. The only repository file it writes
is the plan document (a working ledger kept outside the repo is fine). The
only other permitted state change is an index refresh via
`analyze --index-only`, which writes only the `.gitnexus` index store. It
must not build analyzer `dist/` output and must not mutate source, tests,
configuration, or evaluation data. Stale analyzer provenance is disclosed as
a source-weighted limitation, never repaired by a planning run.
## Hard rules
- **Ledger first.** Before every GitNexus call and every repo file read, check
the context ledger. Never repeat a query or reread an unchanged range that
already answered the same question (allowed repeats are defined in
`references/context-ledger.md`; this skill's own reference files are exempt
from ledger bookkeeping).
- **Every graph query answers a named planning question.** Record the question
and the conclusion in the ledger. No exploratory dredging.
- **Source beats graph.** The graph navigates; current source is authoritative.
Verify before asserting (see Phase 4). Comments are the weakest evidence —
never stronger than executable code.
- **No fabrication.** Never invent symbols, filenames, test names, tool
results, or PDG edges. Unknowns go to _Assumptions and Open Questions_.
- **No scope creep.** Adjacent refactors the task didn't ask for go to plan
§12 as explicitly-deferred follow-ups, not into Proposed Changes.
- **Pin working-tree evidence, not only HEAD.** Every plan form carries the
versioned global dirty digest and sorted cited-path manifest defined in
`references/context-ledger.md`. Generate it only with the portable helper
and byte contract in `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` and
`references/evidence-provenance.md`; never reimplement the digest.
- **Write the plan only through the helper.** The generated-plan path is a
normalized repo-relative
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<3-5-word-slug>.md` path. Compose the
complete UTF-8 document in memory or in a scratchpad outside the target
repo, then pass it on stdin to the helper's `write-plan` command. Never
write the destination directly or fall back to an external output path when
the safe writer fails.
- **Read an existing plan only through the helper.** Deepen must invoke
`scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan`, parse the exact decoded
`plan_bytes_base64` from its descriptor-anchored receipt, and retain that
receipt's canonical `generated_plan_path` and `plan_digest` as one binding.
Never parse a direct lexical-path read or apply one plan's digest to another
path.
- **Stop when you have enough.** Sufficient evidence ends exploration; plans
do not improve monotonically with tokens spent.
## Phase 0 — Parse and classify
Read `references/context-ledger.md` and open the ledger with the task:
original request, interpreted goal, acceptance criteria. Classify the task:
| Category | Posture (depth · plan form · tool-call budget · freshness) |
| ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Bug fix (local) | Narrow, 12 primary symbols, `impact_depth` 1 · compact · ~15 · accept |
| Feature | Default knobs · compact · ~30 · accept |
| Refactor / shared API change | Impact mandatory, `impact_depth` 3 · full · ~45 · strict |
| Performance | Default + performance PDG mode (`references/pdg-slice.md`) · full · ~45 · strict |
| Security | Default + security PDG mode + `explain` taint findings · full · ~45 · strict |
| Dependency upgrade / migration | Impact + compatibility focus; PDG rarely needed · compact · ~20 · accept |
| Concurrency / transactional | Control-flow + state-mutation PDG focus · full · ~45 · strict |
| Test improvement / docs | Narrowest: usually no impact or PDG pass · compact · ~10 · accept |
| Architecture change / spike | Widest: clusters + processes first · full · no cap · strict |
The category posture overrides the Configuration baseline; explicit `key:value`
invocation knobs override both. A task matching several rows combines them:
take the widest depth, union the focus areas.
**Seeded evidence.** When a completed investigation already supplies
verified findings — a finished review, a triage document with `path:line`
anchors and named failing scenarios — open the ledger FROM it: cite the
source document as the opening ledger entries and plan directly against
them instead of re-running the graph ladder over ground it already covers.
Re-deriving what the evidence proves is budget spent against the
turn-economy rule. Phase 4 still source-verifies whatever Proposed Changes
will cite, at the pinned commit — seeding replaces exploration, never
verification.
**Depth is the user's decision, asked once, up front.** In an interactive
session, when the invocation carries no explicit depth signal (no `depth:`,
`form:`, or `freshness:` knob, and not Deepen mode), ask one blocking
question before Phase 1 — how deep should this plan go?
1. **Quick**`depth:narrow form:compact freshness:accept`. Fastest useful
plan: 12 primary symbols, minimal graph work, core sections only.
2. **Standard** — the category posture above, unchanged. Recommend this
unless the classification argues otherwise.
3. **Deep**`depth:deep form:full freshness:strict`. All 13 sections,
`impact_depth` 3, clusters/processes read, PDG slices for the central
functions.
The answer sets the knobs exactly as if they had been typed in the
invocation; explicit knobs win and skip the question. Headless runs never
ask — the category posture applies unchanged. Asking up front replaces
offering to deepen a finished plan afterwards: Deepen mode (below) remains
the mechanism for strengthening an existing plan document — a later session,
review findings, an executor route-back — not a default follow-up question.
**Turn economy is a deliverable.** The plan is judged on decision quality per
token, not thoroughness theater (measured: a 63-turn plan for a two-line
change — the GitNexus repo's `eval/workflow_bench/`). Stay within the category's tool-call
budget; when the budget runs out with questions still open, record them in
§12 instead of digging further — the executor re-verifies cheaply anyway.
## Phase 1 — Anchor and freshness
1. Resolve the target repo: `list_repos` if in doubt, else the indexed repo
covering the working directory. Pass `repo` explicitly on every call when
more than one repo is indexed.
2. Record the repo's current HEAD commit in the ledger — every line-number
citation in the plan is pinned to it.
3. **Resolve and record the analyzer runner** (used by every `analyze`
command in this skill): `node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze …` when the
project has a runner (a previous analyze dropped it next to the index),
else `gitnexus analyze …` (installed CLI — `npm install -g gitnexus`),
else `npx gitnexus analyze …`. Record its path/version and any available
source/build identity; do not manufacture provenance from timestamps.
4. Read `gitnexus://repo/{name}/context` — codebase overview + staleness check.
**Freshness gate.** Plans built on a stale graph make stale blast-radius
claims — but a re-index is the largest fixed cost a planning session
carries, so the gate is category-priced:
- Compact-plan categories default to `freshness: accept`: plan on the
current graph with source verification weighted higher — their plans
cite little graph evidence. Escalate to a refresh mid-plan only when a
graph claim becomes load-bearing (e.g. Proposed Changes rest on a d=1
dependent list), and only then.
- Full-plan categories default to `freshness: strict`, and under it:
- **Analyzer provenance check — before any refresh.** Compare the resolved
runner identity with the index metadata and, in an analyzer-source
checkout, with current analyzer source. If identity is stale or unknown,
do not build output and do not make that graph load-bearing. Record a
**stale analyzer provenance — source-weighted limitation** in
`index_refresh`, the plan header, and §12; rely on targeted source reads
or hand execution to `gitnexus-work`, which owns the build-current gate.
- Stale index → run `analyze --index-only` via the resolved runner
(append `--pdg` when the task category will reach Phase 3) and re-read
the context resource **only when runner provenance is known-current**.
Refresh budget, stated once here: at most one `--index-only` refresh in
Phase 1 **plus** at most one later `--pdg` upgrade in Phase 3 (only when
Phase 1's refresh lacked `--pdg`) per planning session — a Deepen run is
its own session. Record each command, runner identity, and outcome in the
ledger's `index_refresh`.
- Refresh failed or impractical (no write access to the index, prohibitive
repo size), or `freshness: accept` was passed → proceed on the stale
graph, weight source verification higher, and state the staleness and
the skipped refresh in the plan header and Assumptions.
- Resources unreadable but tools working → proceed on tools alone, treat
freshness as unknown (weight source higher), and note it in the plan.
- GitNexus unavailable entirely → switch to **Fallback mode** (below).
5. For architecture-scale tasks only, also read
`gitnexus://repo/{name}/clusters` and `.../processes`.
## Phase 2 — Graph navigation ladder
Use the narrowest operation that answers the current ledger question, in this
order. Budgets: at most `max_primary_symbols` (5) primary symbols and
`max_related_symbols` (20) related symbols active in the ledger.
1. `query {search_query, task_context}` — locate concepts, execution flows,
modules, and related tests for the task.
2. `context {name}` — 360° view of each candidate primary symbol: callers,
callees, categorized refs, processes. Promote to primary or discard. An
`ambiguous` result (ranked candidates) is answered by one retry narrowed
with `kind` / `file_path` / uid — that retry is an allowed repeat.
3. `impact {target, direction}` — upstream/downstream blast radius for shared
or high-connectivity symbols (`maxDepth` = `impact_depth`; `summaryOnly:
true` first for hub symbols, then drill in — an allowed repeat). Record the
d=1 items — the **direct (depth-1) dependents** — the plan must account
for every one of them.
4. `trace {from, to}` — when the task hinges on _how A reaches B_, one call
instead of chained context hops.
5. Statement-level PDG — Phase 3, for the functions the change centers on.
6. `cypher` — last resort, only for a precise graph question the tools above
cannot express. Read `gitnexus://repo/{name}/schema` first; anchor and
LIMIT every query.
7. `detect_changes {scope}` — only when planning against existing uncommitted
or branch work.
Do not run every tool by default. A local test fix may finish the ladder at
step 2.
## Phase 3 — Statement-level PDG slice
For the 13 functions most central to the change, build a bounded **PDG
context slice**. Read `references/pdg-slice.md` and follow it — it owns the
tool calls, inclusion criteria, depth bounds, slice schema, the security and
performance modes, and the no-PDG-layer fallback.
## Phase 4 — Targeted source verification
GitNexus said where to look; now confirm what is there. Using ordinary file
reads (exact line ranges, not whole files unless genuinely required):
- Read every source range the plan will cite: signatures, branch conditions,
state mutations, error paths, nearby comments that change behavior. Compact
plans cite less — verify what they cite, don't expand the citation set to
have more to verify.
- Read the tests GitNexus associated with the primary symbols; never claim a
test exists without having located it.
- Verify the build/test commands the plan will name actually exist
(package.json scripts / CI workflows), and prefer the script form that
carries its prerequisites (pre-hooks) over invoking underlying binaries
directly.
- Check repo conventions that constrain the change (AGENTS.md, GUARDRAILS.md,
lint/build config) — only the parts the change touches.
- Mark each ledger symbol `source_verified: true` as you go. **A symbol that
is named in Proposed Changes must be source-verified.**
- On graph/source disagreement: trust source, record the discrepancy in the
ledger and the plan, recommend re-indexing. Never present stale graph data
as fact.
- Immediately before composition, recompute the versioned
`evidence_provenance` snapshot by invoking
`scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` exactly as specified in
`references/evidence-provenance.md`: the
canonical global dirty digest over all dirty paths and the sorted manifest
of every cited path, including object kind and
HEAD/index/worktree/untracked layer digests. Re-read any citation that
changed during planning. Exclude only the generated plan path.
Evidence hierarchy, strongest first: current source and config → current tests
and executable behavior → compiler/build/lint output → GitNexus graph and PDG
→ documentation and comments.
## Phase 5 — Compose the plan
1. Read `references/plan-template.md` and fill the category's form — compact
(core sections, ≤80 lines excluding the pack) or full (all 13 sections) —
from the ledger, tagging claims with the template's four classes —
`[verified]`, `[graph]`, `[inferred]`, `[assumed]` — and routing open
questions to §12.
2. Build the implementation context pack per `references/context-pack.md`
(this is section 11 of the plan), including mandatory
`evidence_provenance` in compact and full forms.
3. Set `generated_plan_path` to
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<slug>.md` under the root of the repo
being planned (the Phase 1 target repo, not necessarily the cwd); use a
35-word kebab-case slug and repo-relative paths inside the document.
Compose the complete document without creating that destination, then
pipe its exact UTF-8 bytes to `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan`
as specified in `references/evidence-provenance.md`. The helper safely
creates missing parent directories. Initial planning must not pass
`--replace`. A safe-write failure blocks plan publication: report it and
do not write directly, choose an external destination, or weaken the
repo-relative provenance contract. The snapshot and writer commands apply
the same strict generated-plan filename/date validator; do not substitute a
source, `.git`, or arbitrary `docs/plans/` path in either invocation.
4. Present in chat: objective, proposed-changes summary, implementation
sequence, top risks, open questions, and the plan file path. Do not paste
the whole document into chat.
## Deepen mode
`/gitnexus-plan deepen <plan-path>` strengthens an existing plan in place
instead of creating a new one:
1. Resolve the target repository and normalized repo-relative plan candidate,
then load it with `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan --repo <root>
--generated-plan <candidate>` exactly as specified in
`references/evidence-provenance.md`. Reject a missing, external, escaping,
symlinked, or differently scoped path. Decode and parse only the receipt's
exact `plan_bytes_base64`; retain its canonical `generated_plan_path` and
`plan_digest` unchanged for the entire Deepen session.
2. Re-run Phase 1 in full — analyzer provenance check and freshness gate (a
Deepen run is its own session, with its own refresh budget).
3. **Re-anchor before re-pinning.** Recompute the plan's global dirty digest
and cited-path manifest as well as comparing its old HEAD pin with current
HEAD. Changed, renamed, deleted, mixed, or newly absent cited paths get
their ranges re-read — or the claim downgraded — _before_ the pin and
provenance snapshot move. Moving only the commit pin silently launders
dirty or stale claims as verified.
4. Escalate to `depth: deep` (impact_depth 3, clusters/processes read)
unless the invocation overrides knobs explicitly.
5. Seed the ledger from the plan's §11 pack, then re-verify: every
`[graph]`/`[inferred]` claim gets a targeted pass toward `[verified]`;
every `[assumed]` claim is resolved or kept with its reason; direct
(d=1) dependent accounting is re-checked against the refreshed graph;
PDG slices are built or expanded for the central functions when the
layer is present.
6. **Reconcile execution state.** If `gitnexus-work` already landed commits
for this plan (a mid-execution route-back), mark the §7 steps present at
HEAD as completed and re-sequence the remainder — the rewritten plan must
be executable from the top without redoing landed steps.
7. Strengthen whatever the deeper pass showed thin — test scenarios, risks,
Definition of Done — and carry claim-tag upgrades through the prose.
8. Rewrite the **same canonical file** through

--expected-plan-path <retained-read-plan-path>

for Deepen mode, and both expected values must come from the same read-plan
receipt; any digest/path mismatch blocks publication. Retain the successful receipt's
`prior_plan_backup_git_path`; it names the verified Git-admin backup of the
displaced plan. Summarize the delta in chat: claims upgraded, claims that
failed re-verification, sections changed, and that backup path.
## Configuration
Baseline defaults — the Phase 0 category posture overrides them, and inline
`key:value` tokens before the task text override both (the repo has no
skill-config file mechanism; invocation args are the mechanism):
| Knob | Default | Meaning |
| --------------------- | ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `depth` | by category | `narrow` = `impact_depth` 1, PDG only if one function is clearly central; `default` = this table; `deep` = `impact_depth` 3 + clusters/processes read |
| `form` | by category | `compact` (core sections + mini-pack, ≤80 lines excl. pack — see `references/plan-template.md`) or `full` (all 13 sections) |
| `impact_depth` | 2 | `maxDepth` for `impact` |
| `pdg_data_depth` | 2 | Data-dependence hops in the PDG slice |
| `pdg_control_depth` | 2 | Control-dependence hops in the PDG slice |
| `max_primary_symbols` | 5 | Ledger budget (active symbols; discards don't count) |
| `max_related_symbols` | 20 | Ledger budget (active symbols; discards don't count) |
| `max_snippet_lines` | 30 | Longest source excerpt quoted in the plan |
| `freshness` | by category | `strict` (full-plan categories) = refresh a stale index (and a missing PDG layer) with `analyze --index-only [--pdg]` before relying on the graph; `accept` (compact categories) = plan on the current graph, source-weighted and labelled, refreshing only if a graph claim becomes load-bearing |
## Fallback mode (GitNexus or PDG unavailable)
1. Say so, first thing, in chat and in the plan.
2. Use targeted repo exploration (grep/glob/reads) to approximate callers,
dependencies, execution flow, state changes, and related tests.
3. Label every such finding **source-derived** in the plan — never present it
as graph-derived, and never fabricate statement-level edges.
4. Recommend `analyze --index-only` (add `--pdg` for the PDG layers) via
the resolved runner — `node .gitnexus/run.cjs`, installed `gitnexus`, or
`npx gitnexus` — when it would materially raise confidence.
## Skill feedback
If this run exposed friction in the instructions, include concise feedback in
the final response. Feedback is chat-only: do not append evaluation learnings,
edit benchmark data, or modify this skill during a live planning task.

# Context ledger
The ledger is gitnexus-plan's working memory. It exists to make repeated
investigation impossible-by-discipline: **before every GitNexus call and
every repo file read, check it.** Keep it as structured notes in your working
context (or a scratchpad file _outside the repo_ for very long sessions); it
is never published verbatim — the plan and context pack are distilled from
it. This skill's own reference files are exempt from ledger bookkeeping.

## Evidence provenance
`context-pack.md` is the sole normative emitted field schema, and
`evidence-provenance.md` plus `../scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` are the
normative byte contract and implementation. Keep the helper's exact schema-2
output in the ledger; do not redefine, abbreviate, or independently reproduce
its canonicalization here.
Build `evidence_provenance` immediately before composing the plan, after all
source verification, by invoking the helper exactly as described in
`evidence-provenance.md`. It is a versioned, canonical snapshot of both the
whole working tree and every path that supports a plan citation:
- `global_dirty_digest` is SHA-256 over the helper's versioned, NUL-framed
records for
**every dirty repo-relative path**, not only cited paths. Each record includes
path, state, object kind, every available layer digest, and both endpoints of
a rename. Overlapping porcelain facts for one path are merged; for example,
a staged deletion plus a recreated untracked file is `mixed` and retains
both its Git-backed and untracked layers. States are `staged`, `unstaged`,
`untracked`, `deleted`, `renamed`, or `mixed`. Exclude only this run's
normalized repo-relative generated plan path so writing the plan cannot
invalidate its own evidence; do not exclude the rest of `docs/plans/`.
- `cited_path_manifest` is sorted by normalized repo-relative path and
includes every path cited by a `[verified]` claim or named as evidence in
the context pack. Record clean paths too. A path entry has this shape:
```yaml
- path: 'src/example.ts'
object_kind: # each layer: regular | symlink | gitlink | directory | absent
head: 'regular'
index: 'regular'
worktree: 'regular'
untracked: 'absent'
state: 'clean | staged | unstaged | untracked | deleted | renamed | mixed | absent'
rename_from: null
rename_to: null
head_digest: 'sha256:<hex> | absent'
index_digest: 'sha256:<hex> | absent'
worktree_digest: 'sha256:<hex> | absent'
untracked_digest: 'sha256:<hex> | absent'
```
Use Git object contents for HEAD and index digests and filesystem bytes for
worktree/untracked digests; never confuse an absent layer with an empty file.
Hash symlink targets as link text and gitlinks as object IDs. If a cited path
cannot be classified or read, the plan must mark the evidence unavailable
instead of emitting a digest it did not prove.
## Reread rules
Do **not** repeat a query or reread a source range unless one of:
- the previous result was incomplete for the question at hand;
- the source is known to have changed (an edit happened);
- validation exposed a contradiction between graph and source.
**Allowed repeats** (deliberate escalations, not violations):
- `summaryOnly: true` → full drill-down on the same `impact` target;
- an `ambiguous` result retried once with `kind` / `file_path` / uid narrowing;
- the same tool re-run with a changed parameter that answers a _new_ planning
question (e.g. `pdg_query` `controls` then `flows` on one function).
When a repeat is justified, note in the ledger _why_ the earlier entry was
insufficient. A ledger full of near-duplicate queries is the failure signal —
stop and plan with what is established.
## Discarding
Symbols and queries that turned out irrelevant stay in the ledger marked
`discarded` with a one-line reason. That is what prevents re-walking dead
ends later in the session.

# Implementation context pack
Section 11 of the plan. The stable, machine-readable contract a follow-up
implementation agent (`gitnexus-work`, or any executor) consumes to start
work **without repeating the investigation**. Distilled from the ledger;
every entry traceable to verified evidence.
**Compact plans emit the mini-pack** — only: `task_summary`,
`evidence_provenance`, `files_to_modify`, `tests`,
`verification_commands`, `pdg_constraints` (only when a slice actually
ran), `assumptions`, `open_questions`, `avoid`. Full plans emit every
field. Field semantics are identical in both; `evidence_provenance` is
mandatory in both forms. `gitnexus-work` treats absent optional fields as
empty, not as errors.
## Schema
This is the sole normative emitted `evidence_provenance` field schema. The
portable byte contract and executable serializer live in
`evidence-provenance.md` and `../scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs`; sibling
documents must reference them rather than reimplementing canonical bytes.

## Must not contain
- full files;
- the repository-wide raw dirty-path manifest (store only its canonical
`global_dirty_digest`; detailed entries are bounded to cited paths);
- large raw GitNexus responses;
- unfiltered PDG dumps;
- duplicate code excerpts (cite `file:line`, don't re-quote);
- speculative implementation details presented as facts.
## Stability contract
Field names above are the interface consumed by `gitnexus-work` (fields it
does not act on directly travel as executor context). Add fields
freely; do not rename or repurpose existing ones. `assumptions` and `avoid`
are load-bearing: an executor treats `assumptions` as things to re-verify
cheaply before relying on them, and `avoid` as hard constraints.
`evidence_provenance` is also load-bearing: its version, global digest, and
sorted cited-path manifest let the executor distinguish commit drift from
staged, unstaged, untracked, deleted, renamed, mixed, or absent working-tree
evidence. Legacy packs that lack it or use schema 1 require a conservative
schema-2 re-anchor; they are not interpreted as a clean tree.
`generated_plan_path` is always normalized, relative to the target repo, and
scoped to the generated-plan filename shape under `docs/plans/`; schema 2 has
no external-output representation. An executor must load the plan with the
helper's descriptor-anchored `read-plan` command and require this field to
equal the receipt's canonical target-repo-relative path byte-for-byte.

# Evidence provenance serializer v2 and safe plan writer
This file is the normative byte contract for `evidence_provenance` schema 2.
The adjacent `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` is its executable definition.
`gitnexus-plan` and `gitnexus-work` carry byte-identical copies so either skill
can produce the same snapshot without relying on the other skill's install.
It is also the only supported write boundary for a generated plan. Never
recreate the digest with an ad-hoc shell pipeline or write the plan destination
directly.
## Invocation
From the target repository root, run the helper belonging to the active skill:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md
```
`read-plan` is the only supported way to load an existing plan for Deepen or
execution. It emits a JSON receipt with the canonical `generated_plan_path`,
`bytes_read`, exact `plan_bytes_base64`, and `plan_digest` (`sha256:<hex>`).
Decode and consume those exact bytes; do not reopen the lexical path. Retain
the canonical path and digest together for the complete Deepen session; a
receipt for one path never authorizes another, even when their bytes match.
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs snapshot \
--repo "$PWD" \
--schema-version 2 \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--cited src/one.ts \
--cited test/one.test.ts
```
Pass one `--cited` argument for every cited path. The helper emits the complete
JSON value for `evidence_provenance`; copy that value without rewriting fields.
`gitnexus-work` passes the plan's `schema_version`, `generated_plan_path`, and
every path in `cited_path_manifest`. Schema 1 is legacy and deliberately
rejected, so the executor must conservatively re-anchor it under schema 2.
After the snapshot is in the fully composed document, publish its exact UTF-8
bytes through the same helper:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
< /path/to/outside-repo-scratch-plan.md
```
For Deepen only:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--replace \
--expected-plan-path docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--expected-plan-digest 'sha256:<digest-from-read-plan>' \
< /path/to/outside-repo-scratch-plan.md
```
Initial planning never passes `--replace`; an existing destination is an
error. Deepen mode rewrites the same path by adding `--replace`,
`--expected-plan-path <generated_plan_path-from-read-plan>`, and
`--expected-plan-digest <plan_digest-from-that-same-receipt>`. Standard input must be
valid UTF-8 and at most 16 MiB. A successful write prints a JSON receipt with
the normalized `generated_plan_path` and `bytes_written`. A successful Deepen
write also returns `prior_plan_backup_git_path`, a durable Git-admin path for
the displaced plan. The CLI rejects every option that does not apply to its
selected command; the direct API likewise requires literal booleans and exact
digest strings rather than truthy coercion.
## Path contract
Every Git path and CLI path must be valid UTF-8, already normalized to Unicode
NFC, and a nonempty POSIX repo-relative path. NUL, backslash, absolute/drive
paths, empty components, and `.` or `..` components are rejected. The helper
does not silently repair or alias them. Invalid UTF-8 from Git, non-NFC names,
unmerged index stages, unsupported Git modes, sockets/devices/FIFOs, unreadable
objects, symlink traversal in a parent path component, or a repository mutation
observed during the snapshot fail closed.
The generated-plan path is always repo-relative under schema 2. Snapshot
exclusion and writing require exactly
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<3-5-word-kebab-slug>.md`, including a
valid calendar date; they cannot target `.git`, source, configuration, or an
arbitrary repo file. For compatibility with documented and legacy plans,
`read-plan` accepts normalized files matching `docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md`,
while retaining the same descriptor-anchored containment checks. That read
compatibility does not widen the writer. External output has no schema-2
representation. The snapshot exclusion is one exact normalized path
comparison. No glob, directory, basename, or `docs/plans/`-wide exclusion is
permitted. If the exact path is a rename endpoint, only that endpoint record is
excluded.
## Safe existing-plan read contract
`read-plan` fails closed unless Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`, and
`O_NOFOLLOW` are available. It resolves the exact Git top-level, opens the
repository root and every plan parent as held no-follow directory descriptors,
rejects missing, symlink, non-directory, and escaping parents, and opens the
leaf with `O_NOFOLLOW`. It reads at most 16 MiB from that held file descriptor,
requires valid UTF-8, hashes the exact bytes, then proves both the parent chain
and lexical leaf still name the same held objects before returning its receipt.
Neither Deepen nor work may parse bytes obtained before or outside this receipt.
## Safe generated-plan write contract
The writer fails closed unless Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`,
`O_NOFOLLOW`, and Python 3 with libc `renameat2(RENAME_NOREPLACE)` support are
available. Python may live in `/usr/local`, a Nix profile, or another absolute
PATH directory, but the helper accepts only a resolved executable and
containing directory owned by root or the current user and not writable by
group/other. The resolved executable is opened without following links and
invoked through that held descriptor. Relative PATH entries are ignored. The plan parent and the
repository's Git-admin directory must also share a filesystem. It resolves
the target repository's exact Git top-level, opens that root and every
destination parent as held no-follow directory descriptors, creates missing
parents relative to those descriptors, and proves the descriptor and lexical
chains still identify the same directories at the write boundary. A symlink
or non-directory parent, an escaping resolved path, a symlink/non-regular final
target, or a parent swap is an error.
The writer creates a random exclusive temporary file relative to the held final
parent descriptor and keeps its no-follow descriptor open. It writes and
flushes the bytes, binds the temporary name to the opened inode, and hashes the
open file before publication. Immediately before publication it revalidates
the parent and the temporary path, inode, size, and digest. Publication uses an
atomic no-replace move relative to the held directory descriptor. Initial mode
therefore cannot overwrite a destination that appears after the absent check.
The writer then flushes the directory and revalidates the committed path by
opening it with `O_NOFOLLOW`, hashing both the original temporary fd and the
path-bound fd, and performing a second descriptor-anchored path identity check
after hashing. A detected mutation or replacement aborts instead of accepting
mixed-era output.
`--replace` accepts only a pre-existing regular file and is reserved for
Deepen; without it, accidental overwrite is rejected. It also requires the
exact canonical `generated_plan_path` and `plan_digest` from the same session's
`read-plan` receipt. The expected path must exactly equal the write
destination, so identical bytes from one plan cannot authorize another plan.
Immediately before
preservation, the writer hashes the still-held prior-plan fd and rejects any
digest, inode, or path mismatch, including same-inode edits and changes between
read and write. It then atomically moves the current destination without
replacement to a random `gitnexus-plan-backups/` file under the resolved
Git-admin directory and verifies the moved inode and digest against that held
fd. Only then does it publish the new plan with the same atomic no-replace
primitive. A destination that reappears at either boundary is left untouched.
Every newly created plan or vault directory is fsynced and then fsynced into
its containing directory. Every cross-directory preservation move fsyncs both
its source and destination directories before success or a recovery path is
reported. After temporary bytes exist, a failed publication or verification preserves
every available prior, displaced, unpublished, or intended plan in that
Git-admin vault before reporting failure. Each reported recovery is reopened
from a freshly resolved Git root and verified before the error names it as
`git-path:gitnexus-plan-backups/<random-name>`. Resolve that value with
`git rev-parse --git-path gitnexus-plan-backups/<random-name>`; never interpret
it as a repo-relative working-tree path. This remains valid if the held plan
parent was renamed after publication. The writer never reports recovery
through a stale lexical parent and never performs an identity-check-then-unlink
rollback that could delete a racer's replacement. Read-only or unsupported
checkouts produce a blocking error. Callers must not bypass the helper,
redirect to an external path, or weaken these checks.
## Canonical bytes
The `global_dirty_digest.value` is lowercase SHA-256 (without a `sha256:`
prefix) over this byte stream. All textual values are their exact UTF-8 bytes.
`NUL` below is one `0x00` byte.
1. Prefix fields, each followed by NUL, then one additional NUL:
`gitnexus-evidence-provenance`, `schema_version`, `2`.
2. Zero or more records sorted by unsigned lexicographic comparison of the
normalized path's UTF-8 bytes. Locale and filesystem order are forbidden.
3. Each record is `record` + NUL, then the following fixed-order sequence of
`field-name` + NUL + `field-value` + NUL pairs, then one additional NUL:
`path`, `state`, `head_kind`, `index_kind`, `worktree_kind`,
`untracked_kind`, `rename_from`, `rename_to`, `head_digest`,
`index_digest`, `worktree_digest`, `untracked_digest`.
4. The literal `absent` represents every unavailable rename endpoint, object
kind, and layer digest in canonical bytes. It is never an empty string.
The schema's canonicalization literal is exactly
`gitnexus-evidence-provenance-v2 NUL-framed UTF-8 records`. The fixed field
count plus the extra NUL after prefix/record makes framing unambiguous; values
cannot contain NUL. Duplicate normalized paths are rejected.
## Records, renames, and states
The raw dirty set comes from Git porcelain v2 with NUL termination, all
untracked files, submodule inspection enabled, a fixed 50% rename threshold,
and both `diff.renameLimit=0` and `status.renameLimit=0`, so repository config
cannot cap rename candidates. Raw porcelain facts that share a path are merged
into one canonical record. A rename contributes two endpoint facts:
- old endpoint: `path=<old>`, `rename_from=absent`, `rename_to=<new>`;
- new endpoint: `path=<new>`, `rename_from=<old>`, `rename_to=absent`.
Both normally have state `renamed`; record sorting, not old/new role,
determines order. A worktree-dirty rename destination or any endpoint that also
has another fact is `mixed`, with rename metadata retained. When either endpoint
is cited, the cited manifest expands to include both.
Ordinary `XY` status maps to `mixed` when index and worktree columns are both
dirty, otherwise `deleted` for a deletion, `staged` for index-only change, and
`unstaged` for worktree-only change. `?` is `untracked`. Multiple distinct
facts for the same path become `mixed`; a staged deletion plus a recreated file
therefore retains HEAD/index facts while the filesystem object is recorded in
the untracked layer. `? child/` is Git's embedded-directory marker: the trailing
slash is removed before path normalization and `child` is materialized as one
bounded directory object. A cited path outside the dirty set is `clean`,
`untracked` when it exists only outside Git layers, or `absent` when no layer
exists.
## Object and digest rules
Every present layer digest is `sha256:<lowercase-hex>`:
- HEAD regular/symlink: SHA-256 of the exact Git blob bytes. HEAD directory:
SHA-256 of the exact raw Git tree bytes. HEAD gitlink: SHA-256 of the ASCII
object ID stored by the tree.
- Index regular/symlink: SHA-256 of the stage-0 Git blob bytes. Index gitlink:
SHA-256 of its ASCII object ID. The index has no directory layer. Any
non-stage-0 entry is rejected.
- Tracked worktree regular: raw file bytes, opened without following symlinks.
Symlink: raw link-target bytes. Gitlink: ASCII object ID at the checked-out
nested HEAD, but only after `rev-parse --show-toplevel` proves that the
directory itself is the nested repository root, `HEAD` resolves there, and
porcelain v2 reports no staged, unstaged, untracked, or ignored nested changes. The
same root, HEAD, and clean-status proof is repeated by the mutation guard. A
dirty, empty, uninitialized, or parent-falling-through gitlink fails closed.
Directory: the v1 directory stream described below.
- A path absent from both HEAD and index places the filesystem object in the
`untracked` layer and marks `worktree` absent. A Git-backed path places it in
`worktree` and marks `untracked` absent. A missing layer uses literal
`absent` for both kind and digest; an empty file is the SHA-256 of zero bytes.
Filesystem directory bytes use prefix fields
`gitnexus-evidence-directory`, `schema_version`, `1`, the same NUL framing,
and recursive entries sorted by unsigned UTF-8 relative-path bytes. Each entry
has fixed fields `path`, `kind`, `digest`. A single bottom-up filesystem walk
visits each node once and returns each child digest plus the flattened subtree
needed to preserve those canonical bytes; links are never followed. When the
directory is proven to be an exact nested Git top-level, only its administrative
`.git` entry is excluded. Every other child, including working files and nested
directories, remains evidence.
Each directory object is bounded to 10,000 visited entries, depth 256, and 256
MiB of regular-file content. Exceeding a bound fails closed. These bounds apply
independently to each top-level directory object materialized by a record.
HEAD objects are read only from the full object ID captured at snapshot start;
the symbolic `HEAD` name is never re-resolved for layers. Index layers are
parsed from one captured stage-0 listing. The helper guards the corresponding
HEAD/ref/reflog controls and raw index file, compares the captured listing at
the end, and rejects ordinary A-to-B-to-A mutations instead of accepting
mixed-era layers.
Regular files are read through an `O_NOFOLLOW` descriptor with before/after
identity checks. Symlinks use lstat/readlink/lstat; directories record identity
before and after their inventory. The helper also compares raw porcelain-v2
status and HEAD at the start and end, then rechecks filesystem guards. An
absent cited path holds a no-follow descriptor for the nearest existing parent
and records the first missing component or leaf; that anchored absence is
checked both before and after the final Git status pass, so a newly created
ignored path cannot evade porcelain. Any observed race rejects the snapshot
rather than emitting mixed-era evidence.

# Building the PDG context slice
Statement-level evidence for the 13 functions most central to the change.
Goal: a compact slice the planning LLM can hold, never a graph dump.
## Tools (all verified against `gitnexus/src/mcp/tools.ts`)
| Question | Call |
| --- | --- |
| Under what condition does X run? Guards? | `pdg_query {mode: "controls", target}` |
| Where does variable Y flow inside the function? | `pdg_query {mode: "flows", target, variable}` |
| What depends on the statement at line N? | `impact {mode: "pdg", target, direction: "upstream", line: N}` |
| Source→sink taint paths (security mode) | `explain {target}` |
Contract caveats that shape interpretation:
- `impact` requires `direction` in every mode, `mode: "pdg"` included —
`"upstream"` for "what depends on this statement", `"downstream"` for what
it depends on. Omitting it fails schema validation.
- CDG branch sense is `'T'`/`'F'` in the result's `label` field; a guard's
sense depends on its predicate (`if (!ok) return;` rides `'T'`) — never
filter guards by a fixed label. Early return/throw edges carry `guard:
true`. (The raw edge stores the sense in `reason`, visible only via
`cypher`.)
- `pdg_query` is intra-procedural and always anchored. Cross-function flow is
taint's domain (`explain`) or `impact {mode:"pdg"}`'s inter-procedural reach.
- Every `switch` case arm is `'T'` (per-case conditions not distinguished).
- No `--pdg` layer → the tools return a "no PDG layer" note, not an error.
The note is repo-wide: one probe settles it — do not re-probe per function.
Under `freshness: strict` (default), run `analyze --index-only --pdg` via
the runner resolved in SKILL.md Phase 1 — this is the one `--pdg` upgrade
Phase 1's refresh budget allows (skip it if Phase 1 already refreshed
with `--pdg`; apply the runner build check first) — then re-probe. If the refresh failed, is impractical, or `freshness: accept` was
passed: record "PDG unavailable" in the ledger, skip the slice, say so in
plan §5, and recommend the command. Never reconstruct edges from source by
hand.
## Inclusion criteria
A statement enters the slice only if it is at least one of:
- directly matched to the task;
- a data-flow predecessor or successor of a relevant statement (within
`pdg_data_depth`, default 2);
- a control dependency of a relevant statement (within `pdg_control_depth`,
default 2);
- a state mutation affecting the requested behavior;
- an external call on the execution path;
- an error-handling or fallback branch;
- part of an affected return value;
- required to explain a test assertion.
Everything else is cut. If the slice exceeds ~15 statements per function,
tighten relevance rather than raising depth.
## Slice representation
Working-memory material: keep the full slice in working context while
planning, summarize it into the ledger's one-line `pdg_slices` entries, and
distill it into plan §5.
```yaml
pdg_context:
entry_symbol: "processFileGroup"
source: { file: "gitnexus/src/core/ingestion/worker.ts", start_line: 120, end_line: 188 }
relevant_statements:
- id: "stmt-12" # stable id or "<file>:<line>"
lines: "128-130"
type: "condition | call | mutation | return | throw"
code: "if (request.retryable) {"
relevance: "Controls whether retry scheduling is entered"
defines: []
uses: ["request.retryable"]
control_dependencies: ["stmt-4"]
data_dependencies: []
execution_flow: # ordered, prose steps
- "Validate request"
- "Schedule retry"
critical_dependencies:
- { from: "stmt-7", to: "stmt-18", type: "data", explanation: "Validated request becomes scheduler input" }
behavioural_observations:
- "Persistence occurs before scheduler invocation"
planning_implications:
- "Changes to scheduling must account for partial failure"
```
Adapt field names to what the tools actually returned; keep it
machine-readable and short. `behavioural_observations` are confirmed facts;
`planning_implications` are inferences — keep the distinction.
## Security mode (task category: security)
Additionally identify and record: untrusted inputs, validation points,
sanitisation points, authn/authz checks, privilege boundaries, sensitive data,
persistence operations, network calls, dangerous sinks, and error paths that
bypass validation. Run `explain {target}` for persisted source→sink taint
paths (intra-procedural TAINTED edges and cross-function TAINT_PATH flows)
and include the hop paths for findings relevant to the task. Absence of a
taint finding is **not** proof of safety — closure/callback flows,
property/field flows, and implicit flows are not modeled, and guard-style
sanitizers may be missed — say so when it matters.
## Performance mode (task category: performance)
Additionally scan the slice for: loops, repeated calls, blocking operations,
network calls, database calls, allocation-heavy paths, caching boundaries,
concurrency, fan-out, repeated data transformations. State likely hot-path
implications as inferences; never claim measured improvements without
benchmark evidence.

# Plan document template
Two forms, chosen by the Phase 0 category (`form` knob overrides): **compact**
for narrow/default work, **full** for deep work. Repo-relative paths for all
repo artifacts in both.
## Compact form
Same evidence header, then only the load-bearing sections — keep the §
numbers in the headings so `gitnexus-work`'s § references resolve:
```markdown
# GitNexus Engineering Plan
> Task: <one line>
> Evidence verified at commit <sha>; GitNexus index <...>.
> Evidence provenance schema 2; global dirty digest <sha256>; cited-path manifest <count> sorted entries; exact generated plan path excluded.
## Objective (§1)
## Current Behaviour (§23) — ≤10 lines, architecture folded in
## Findings (§45) — only load-bearing, each tagged + tool-named
## Proposed Changes (§6)
## Implementation Sequence (§7) — risks inline as step notes
## Test Strategy (§8)
## Implementation Context (§11) — the mini-pack (see context-pack.md)
## Assumptions and Open Questions (§12)
## Definition of Done (§13)
```
Hard cap: **80 lines excluding the §11 pack**. Anything cut that still
matters becomes one line in §12 — never padded prose. A compact plan that
outgrows the cap is a signal the task was misclassified: reclassify to full
rather than overflowing.
## Full form
Fill every section below. If a section is genuinely empty for this task
(e.g. no PDG layer indexed), keep the heading and state why in one line —
never silently drop it.
**Claim tagging.** Tag every load-bearing claim with its evidence class:
`[verified]` (source-read at the pinned commit), `[graph]` (GitNexus/PDG
output, not source-confirmed), `[inferred]` (evidence-backed reasoning),
`[assumed]` (unverified — must also appear in §12). Untagged prose is
narrative, not evidence.
```markdown
# GitNexus Engineering Plan
> Task: <one line>
> Evidence verified at commit <HEAD sha>; GitNexus index <fresh | refreshed this session (--index-only [--pdg]) | N commits behind, refresh skipped: <reason> | not used>.
> Evidence provenance schema 2; global dirty digest <sha256>; cited-path manifest <count> sorted entries; exact generated plan path excluded.
## 1. Objective
A concise description of the requested outcome.
## 2. Current Behaviour
Describe the current implementation and execution path.
Include the most relevant symbols, files, and statement-level observations.
## 3. Relevant Architecture
Explain the involved modules, boundaries, dependencies, and established patterns.
## 4. GitNexus Findings
Summarise:
- primary symbols;
- callers and callees;
- impact radius;
- related implementations;
- related tests;
- important cross-module relationships.
## 5. Statement-Level PDG Findings
For each critical symbol, explain:
- relevant statements;
- control dependencies;
- data dependencies;
- state mutations;
- error branches;
- side effects;
- ordering constraints;
- planning implications.
Do not paste an unfiltered graph dump.
## 6. Proposed Changes
For every proposed change include:
- file;
- symbol;
- exact responsibility;
- intended behavioural change;
- dependencies;
- constraints;
- implementation notes.
## 7. Implementation Sequence
Provide an ordered sequence of implementation steps.
Each step must be independently actionable.
## 8. Test Strategy
Describe:
- tests to add;
- tests to update;
- edge cases;
- failure paths;
- regression coverage;
- integration boundaries;
- relevant verification commands.
## 9. Risk and Impact Analysis
Include:
- high-risk symbols;
- downstream consumers;
- compatibility concerns;
- performance concerns;
- concurrency or transaction risks;
- migration risks;
- observability requirements.
## 10. Files Expected to Change
| File | Symbols | Reason |
| ---- | ------- | ------ |
## 11. Reusable Implementation Context
The machine-readable context pack — see `context-pack.md`. Its mandatory
`evidence_provenance` field carries the full pinned commit, canonical
repository-wide dirty digest, and sorted cited-path manifest.
## 12. Assumptions and Open Questions
Clearly separate assumptions from confirmed facts. Explicitly-deferred
follow-up suggestions (adjacent work the task didn't ask for) land here too.
## 13. Definition of Done
Concrete, testable completion criteria.
```
Composition notes:
- Immediately before composition, emit `evidence_provenance.schema_version`,
the full HEAD commit, the canonical `global_dirty_digest`, and the
`cited_path_manifest` sorted by normalized repo-relative path. Include
object kinds, rename endpoints, and HEAD/index/worktree/untracked layer
digests. Exclude only the generated plan path from the global digest.
- Invoke `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` per `evidence-provenance.md` and
copy its schema-2 JSON; never recreate canonical records in prose or shell.
- Publish the fully composed UTF-8 plan only with that helper's `write-plan`
command. Initial planning must not replace an existing file; Deepen rewrites
the same repo-relative path with `write-plan --replace
--expected-plan-path <path-from-read-plan>
--expected-plan-digest <digest-from-read-plan>`, which preserves the prior
plan in the receipt's `prior_plan_backup_git_path`. Both expected values must
come from the same receipt. Deepen must load and bind that canonical path and
those original bytes through `read-plan` first. Snapshot, read, and
publication must pass the same strict generated-plan filename/date validator.
- §2/§5 quote source excerpts at most `max_snippet_lines` (30) lines each, and
only when the excerpt carries the argument.
- §4 findings each name the tool call they came from (tool + key args), plus a
one-line quote of the result when the plan leans on it — that is what makes
a tool claim auditable later. Stale-index or fallback-mode findings are
labelled as such.
- §6 changes may only name symbols the ledger marks `source_verified`.
- §7 steps are ordered by dependency and independently actionable — an
executor can stop after any step with the tree still coherent. Steps that
change output guarded by fingerprints, goldens, or recorded baselines
regenerate those artifacts ONCE, in the final step of the sequence — CI
judges only the tip, and per-step refreshes churn every intermediate
commit and re-drift as later steps land.
- §8 names real, located test files for updates; new tests get concrete
scenario lists (input → action → expected outcome). Verification commands
must exist AND be runnable: prefer the npm/CI script form that carries its
prerequisites (pre-hooks, builds) over invoking underlying binaries directly.
- §9 must account for every direct (depth-1) dependent the impact pass
reported.

# PR Review with GitNexus
## When to Use
- "Review this PR"
- "What does PR #42 change?"
- "Is this safe to merge?"
- "What's the blast radius of this PR?"
- "Are there missing tests for this PR?"
- Reviewing someone else's code changes before merge
## Workflow
```
1. gh pr diff <number> → Get the raw diff
2. detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"}) → Map diff to affected flows
3. For each changed symbol:
impact({target: "<symbol>", direction: "upstream"}) → Blast radius per change
4. context({name: "<key symbol>"}) → Understand callers/callees
5. READ gitnexus://repo/{name}/processes → Check affected execution flows
6. Summarize findings with risk assessment
```
> If "Index is stale" → run `node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze` in terminal before reviewing.
## Checklist
```
- [ ] Fetch PR diff (gh pr diff or git diff base...head)
- [ ] detect_changes to map changes to affected execution flows
- [ ] impact on each non-trivial changed symbol
- [ ] Review d=1 items (WILL BREAK) — are callers updated?
- [ ] context on key changed symbols to understand full picture
- [ ] Check if affected processes have test coverage
- [ ] Assess overall risk level
- [ ] Write review summary with findings
```
## Review Dimensions
| Dimension | How GitNexus Helps |
| --- | --- |
| **Correctness** | `context` shows callers — are they all compatible with the change? |
| **Blast radius** | `impact` shows d=1/d=2/d=3 dependents — anything missed? |
| **Completeness** | `detect_changes` shows all affected flows — are they all handled? |
| **Test coverage** | `impact({includeTests: true})` shows which tests touch changed code |
| **Breaking changes** | d=1 upstream items that aren't updated in the PR = potential breakage |
## Risk Assessment
| Signal | Risk |
| --- | --- |
| Changes touch <3 symbols, 0-1 processes | LOW |
| Changes touch 3-10 symbols, 2-5 processes | MEDIUM |
| Changes touch >10 symbols or many processes | HIGH |
| Changes touch auth, payments, or data integrity code | CRITICAL |
| d=1 callers exist outside the PR diff | Potential breakage — flag it |
## Tools
**detect_changes** — map PR diff to affected execution flows:
```
detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"})
→ Changed: 8 symbols in 4 files
→ Affected processes: CheckoutFlow, RefundFlow, WebhookHandler
→ Risk: MEDIUM
```
**impact** — blast radius per changed symbol:
```
impact({target: "validatePayment", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1 (WILL BREAK):
- processCheckout (src/checkout.ts:42) [CALLS, 100%]
- webhookHandler (src/webhooks.ts:15) [CALLS, 100%]
→ d=2 (LIKELY AFFECTED):
- checkoutRouter (src/routes/checkout.ts:22) [CALLS, 95%]
```
**impact with tests** — check test coverage:
```
impact({target: "validatePayment", direction: "upstream", includeTests: true})
→ Tests that cover this symbol:
- validatePayment.test.ts [direct]
- checkout.integration.test.ts [via processCheckout]
```
**context** — understand a changed symbol's role:
```
context({name: "validatePayment"})
→ Incoming calls: processCheckout, webhookHandler
→ Outgoing calls: verifyCard, fetchRates
→ Processes: CheckoutFlow (step 3/7), RefundFlow (step 1/5)
```
## Example: "Review PR #42"
```
1. gh pr diff 42 > /tmp/pr42.diff
→ 4 files changed: payments.ts, checkout.ts, types.ts, utils.ts
2. detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"})
→ Changed symbols: validatePayment, PaymentInput, formatAmount
→ Affected processes: CheckoutFlow, RefundFlow
→ Risk: MEDIUM
3. impact({target: "validatePayment", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1: processCheckout, webhookHandler (WILL BREAK)
→ webhookHandler is NOT in the PR diff — potential breakage!
4. impact({target: "PaymentInput", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1: validatePayment (in PR), createPayment (NOT in PR)
→ createPayment uses the old PaymentInput shape — breaking change!
5. context({name: "formatAmount"})
→ Called by 12 functions — but change is backwards-compatible (added optional param)
6. Review summary:
- MEDIUM risk — 3 changed symbols affect 2 execution flows
- BUG: webhookHandler calls validatePayment but isn't updated for new signature
- BUG: createPayment depends on PaymentInput type which changed
- OK: formatAmount change is backwards-compatible
- Tests: checkout.test.ts covers processCheckout path, but no webhook test
```

# GitNexus review
Review the requested change surface without editing source, committing, pushing,
posting, or resolving threads. A later explicit request may authorize those
actions. Use GitNexus for structural evidence and source inspection for proof;
neither substitutes for the other.
## Resolve the target
Accept these forms:
| Input | Review surface |
| ------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| PR URL, `owner/repo#42`, `#42`, or bare number | GitHub PR |
| `base...head` | Merge-base range |
| `base..head` | Exact two-dot range |
| Branch, tag, or commit | Ref against the repository default branch |
| `local`, `staged`, `unstaged`, or working-tree wording | Local changes |
| No target | Current branch's open PR; otherwise local changes; otherwise current branch |
An explicit target always wins. Interpret a bare number as a PR only in a
GitHub repository with working `gh` authentication; otherwise ask for a ref or
URL. If implicit mode finds both branch commits and local changes, review them
as two labeled surfaces rather than silently dropping or blending either one.
Record the resolved target kind, repository root, default branch, base SHA,
head SHA, merge-base when applicable, and included local states. Resolve the
default branch from remote metadata (`refs/remotes/<remote>/HEAD` or GitHub
repository metadata); use `main` or `master` only as an explicit fallback and
say when doing so.
### PR
Use `gh pr view`/`gh api` to pin the PR number, repository, title, URL, base
ref, base SHA, head ref, and head SHA. Fetch those exact commits without
switching the user's branch. Compute `git merge-base <base> <head>` and use
that SHA as the review base: GitHub PR diffs are merge-base diffs, while
`detect_changes(scope: "compare")` is a two-dot comparison.
Use the local `git diff <merge-base> <head>` as the complete diff source of
truth; use GitHub metadata for PR facts and review state. For fork PRs, fetch
the pull ref or the contributor remote instead of assuming the head branch
exists on `origin`.
### Branch, ref, or range
Resolve every ref to a commit before reviewing. For a branch or `A...B`, use
the merge-base as the comparison base. For an explicit `A..B`, honor `A` as
the exact base. Do not compare a feature branch directly with a moving default
branch tip when merge-base semantics were intended.
### Local changes
Inspect `git status --short`, the staged diff, the unstaged diff, and every
untracked file. Use `detect_changes` with `staged`, `unstaged`, or `all` as
requested. Untracked files are not guaranteed to appear in Git diff or graph
mapping, so read them directly and list them in the review provenance.
## Align the checkout and index
The graph and diff must describe the same head. Reuse an existing worktree only
when it is at the exact target SHA. Otherwise create a temporary detached
worktree for the PR/ref head, review there, and remove only that temporary
worktree afterward. Never switch or reset the user's current worktree.
Check GitNexus status in the target worktree. If stale, run
`node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze --index-only` before trusting graph results
(temporary worktrees never carry the gitignored `run.cjs` — fall back to the
installed `gitnexus` CLI, then `npx gitnexus`), and include `--pdg` in that
same refresh when the diff plausibly touches trust or data-flow boundaries,
so the taint pass below doesn't pay a second full analyze. Taint and
dependence evidence needs that PDG layer: when the workflow's taint pass
finds it missing, rebuild with `analyze --pdg --index-only` and record the
rebuild in provenance. For local changes, refresh the index so new or
modified source is represented.
If an exact target checkout/index cannot be established, state the limitation
and do not claim a complete graph-backed review.
## Review workflow
1. Read the full diff and changed-file list. Separate generated files,
dependency churn, tests, and behavior changes.
2. Run `detect_changes` against the exact surface:
- PR/branch/`...`: `scope: "compare"`, `base_ref: <merge-base SHA>`.
- Explicit `A..B`: `scope: "compare"`, `base_ref: <A SHA>` from a worktree
at `B`.
- Local: `scope: "staged"`, `"unstaged"`, or `"all"`.
Pass `worktree` when the MCP server is attached elsewhere.
3. Run upstream `impact` with `includeTests: true` for each behaviorally changed
symbol. Prioritize public contracts, shared types, control flow, persistence,
security boundaries, and error handling; skip mechanical/generated changes.
4. Inspect every direct (`d=1`) dependent that is outside the diff. A dependent
outside the diff is a lead, not automatically a bug—verify the changed
contract and caller behavior in source.
5. Use `context` on key or ambiguous symbols and inspect affected execution
flows. Read the surrounding implementation and tests at cited locations.
6. **Taint and dependence pass.** For changed code on trust or data-flow
boundaries — external input, persistence, process execution, network,
auth — run `explain` on the changed files or symbols and judge its
source→sink taint findings against the diff: a flow the change
introduces, or a sanitizer/guard the change removes, is a finding; a
pre-existing flow is context, not a defect of this change. When the
change claims to guard or sanitize something, verify with `pdg_query`:
what controls the changed statement, and where its values flow. This
needs a `--pdg` index; if one cannot be built, state that the taint pass
was skipped rather than implying coverage.
7. Check whether tests exercise the changed behavior, boundary conditions, and
affected flows. Run focused read-only validation when practical. When the
diff refreshes a committed baseline, fingerprint, or golden, re-run the
exact CI check command against the head instead of trusting the committed
value — a stale artifact is invisible in the diff and fails only in CI.
8. Reconcile graph evidence with the raw diff. New files, dynamic dispatch,
configuration, reflection, and untracked content may require direct review
even when graph results are empty. Version and invalidation constants are
review surface: when the diff changes what gets emitted or persisted,
verify every schema/version constant gating caches, incremental
writebacks, and fingerprint baselines was bumped or regenerated — in
GitNexus itself, for example: `INCREMENTAL_SCHEMA_VERSION` (the
incremental write set covers only changed files, so new cross-file edges
never reach an existing index without the bump), the parse-store
`SCHEMA_BUMP`, and both bench fingerprint sets.
## Expert lenses
Depth comes from matching reviewers to what actually changed, not from one
generalist pass. After workflow step 2, group the changed files and symbols
by the functional areas the graph already knows — the index's cluster
listing; `context` names each symbol's cluster — and give each touched area
an expert lens: a reviewer charged with that domain's contracts, invariants,
and failure modes, grounded in the repo's own material (architecture docs,
agent rules, the domain's tests) before judging the diff. A lens verifies,
not just reads: when the changed code is a pure function reachable from the
repo's own toolchain — parsers, extractors, capture emitters, formatters —
execute it on the candidate failing shape (a scratch probe, deleted
afterward) and cite the observed output. An empirical probe outranks source
reading in the evidence hierarchy; role swaps, dead branches, and
error-recovery-dependent behavior repeatedly pass a reading and fail a
ten-line probe. The numbered
workflow runs exactly once; dispatch the lens passes after step 6, handing
each lens the evidence already collected rather than letting lenses repeat
the `impact`, `context`, or taint calls. In GitNexus
itself, for example: shared ingestion-pipeline changes get an ingestion
expert plus one language expert per changed language extractor; embeddings
changes an embeddings expert; LadybugDB/storage changes a Ladybug expert.
Four cross-cutting lenses run regardless of domain:
- **Architectural fit** — the change lands where the architecture says the
concern lives, reuses existing seams, and adds no parallel structure.
- **Language conformance** — the repo's own type/lint/test contract as
configured (tsconfig strictness, lint rules, test conventions); in a
strict TypeScript repo, for example: strictness intact, no `any`/`as any`
escapes, module boundaries typed. Judge by the repo's contract, never a
universal style bar.
- **Definition of Done** — changed behavior has tests, docs the change makes
stale are updated, and sync/drift guards (shipped copies, manifests,
changelogs) still hold.
- **Simplicity** — YAGNI and clear-code check: flag speculative abstraction,
unused knobs, and overengineering; the smallest diff that meets the
Definition of Done is the standard.
Scale effort to the surface: a single-domain change of a few files gets one
combined pass covering its domain lens plus the four cross-cutting checks;
a multi-domain change gets one lens per touched area — run as parallel
subagents where the harness supports them, each scoped to its own files
plus the shared graph evidence, and as sequential passes otherwise. Never
spawn a lens for a domain the diff does not touch. Merge lenses that ground
in the same material — two lenses reading the same files pay twice for one
read's coverage, so give one reviewer both charges. Where the harness
offers model or effort tiers, run mechanical lenses (rename sweeps,
doc-consistency checks) on a cheaper tier and reserve the strongest engine
for adversarial judgment. Every lens reports
through the Finding standard below; merge and dedup before the verdict,
dropping anything without a concrete failing scenario.
## Finding standard
Report a finding only when the reviewed change introduces a concrete defect,
regression, security issue, compatibility break, material coverage gap, or a
maintainability cost with a concrete carrying scenario (a dead knob, a
duplicated contract, a drift-prone copy).
Each finding must include:
- severity and a precise `path:line` anchor;
- the failing scenario or contract;
- GitNexus evidence (dependent symbol/process) when applicable;
- why existing code or tests do not mitigate it;
- a concise remediation or missing test.
Do not report style preferences, pre-existing issues, raw risk counts, or
speculation as defects. Do not infer safety from zero graph hits. Calibrate
overall risk from consequence, reachability, reversibility, and test evidence,
not from the number of changed symbols alone.
## Output
Lead with findings in severity order. If there are none, say so explicitly.
Then provide:
```markdown
## Review: <target>
### Findings
- [HIGH|MEDIUM|LOW] `path:line`<problem, evidence, impact, remediation>
### Change and blast-radius summary
- Target/base/head/merge-base and local states reviewed
- Changed symbols and affected execution flows
### Coverage and residual risk
- Tests present, tests missing, graph/diff limitations
### Verdict
APPROVE | REQUEST CHANGES | NEEDS DISCUSSION
```
For a branch or local review, use `READY`, `NOT READY`, or `NEEDS DISCUSSION`
instead of a PR approval action. Include the exact target SHAs so a later run
can tell whether the evidence is stale.

# gitnexus-work — execute a gitnexus-plan
The executor counterpart to `gitnexus-plan`: consumes a plan's §11
implementation context pack and ships it as verified atomic commits, with
GitNexus discipline baked in — `impact` before every symbol edit,
`detect_changes` before every commit, tests from the plan's scenarios, and a
two-layer drift check that re-anchors both commit and dirty working-tree
evidence before relying on it.
## Invocation
| CLI | How to invoke |
| --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Claude Code** | `/gitnexus-work [plan path]` (blank → newest `docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md` in this repo) |
| **Codex CLI** | Ask: "run gitnexus-work on <plan path>" (Codex reads `AGENTS.md`), or install the skill user-level (below) |
### Codex (user-level install)
```
cp -r .claude/skills/gitnexus-work ~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-work
```
Optionally, for an explicit slash command, create
`~/.codex/prompts/gitnexus-work.md`:
```markdown
---
description: Execute a gitnexus-plan as verified atomic commits (impact-checked, detect_changes-gated)
argument-hint: <plan path, or blank for the newest plan>

Use the gitnexus-work skill for: $ARGUMENTS
Read `~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-work/SKILL.md` (prefer the repo copy at
`.claude/skills/gitnexus-work/SKILL.md` when present) and follow its phases in
order. This skill edits code; honor its impact-before-edit and
detect_changes-before-commit rules without exception.
```
## Contract with gitnexus-plan
- Input: the 13-section plan document; §11's `implementation_context` fields
are the machine-readable interface (see
`../gitnexus-plan/references/context-pack.md` for the stability contract).
- `evidence_provenance` is mandatory in compact and full plans. Work always
loads the plan only through its byte-identical helper's descriptor-anchored
`read-plan` command, consumes the exact base64 bytes from that receipt, and
recomputes the global dirty digest and sorted cited-path manifest even at
the same HEAD. Schema-2 `generated_plan_path` is a normalized
repo-relative `docs/plans/<date>-gitnexus-plan-<slug>.md` path; external,
escaping, or differently scoped values are invalid. It must also equal the
read receipt's canonical target-repo-relative path byte-for-byte.
Missing or schema-1 evidence re-anchors under schema 2.
- The plan is never mutated; deviations are recorded in commit messages and
the final report.
- Changed citations are re-read, new uncited dirty paths are assessed for
scope, and unreadable evidence blocks dependent work. Deepen is reserved
for drift that invalidates scope, requirements, a key technical decision,
or the planned seam.
## Graph freshness
One fail-closed **Build-current/index-current procedure** runs before every
graph-dependent impact query and again before final graph verification. It
compares indexed commit and the schema-4 runner identity (including its
`gitnexus-analyzer-dependency-runtime-v4` dependency payload/runtime digest),
requires no incomplete-index recovery markers, invalidates on
relationship-affecting committed or uncommitted edits, builds and invokes the
current local analyzer with PDG indexing when needed, and treats timestamps
only as a conservative trigger. Build, refresh, or identity failures block
impact and completion; the executor never falls back to a stale runner.

# gitnexus-work — execute a gitnexus-plan
Execute an implementation plan produced by `gitnexus-plan`, shipping it as a
sequence of verified, atomic commits. The plan's section 11
(`implementation_context` pack) is the primary machine-readable input; the
prose sections are its rationale. This skill **does** edit code — it is the
executor counterpart to the planning-only `gitnexus-plan`.
```
/gitnexus-work <plan path> # execute this plan
/gitnexus-work # newest docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md here
/gitnexus-work <small task text> # direct mode, see Input triage
```
## Input triage
- **Plan path** (or blank → the newest `docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md` under
the current repo root): the normal mode; continue to Phase 1. Schema-2
plans have a normalized repo-relative
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<3-5-word-slug>.md`
`generated_plan_path`. Resolve only a lexical candidate, then invoke
`scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan --repo <root> --generated-plan
<candidate>` and load only the exact bytes in its descriptor-anchored
receipt. Require the receipt's canonical repo-relative path to equal the
document's `generated_plan_path` byte-for-byte;
reject an external, escaping, differently scoped, or mismatched value. A
plan in another target repo may still be passed by explicit path. If Phase 1's
pre-completed check finds every §7 step of the newest plan already landed,
stop and ask instead of re-executing it.
- **Bare task text**: trivial and bounded (12 files, no architectural
decisions) → implement directly with the same discipline: `impact` before
every symbol edit, minimal change, tests when behavior changes,
verification commands taken from the repo's own scripts (package.json /
CI), `detect_changes` before every commit, and the shared
Build-current/index-current procedure before graph-dependent impact and
final verification. Anything larger → recommend running
`/gitnexus-plan` first; honor the user's choice if they decline.
## Phase 1 — Load and re-anchor the plan
1. Resolve the target repo and normalized plan candidate, then invoke this
skill's descriptor-anchored `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan`
command exactly as
specified in `references/evidence-provenance.md`. Reject a missing,
external, escaping, symlinked, or differently scoped path. Decode and read
the receipt's exact `plan_bytes_base64` completely; never read or reopen the
lexical path directly. It is a decision artifact, not a script: scope
boundaries and `avoid` entries bind you; exact code is yours to write.
Retain the receipt's canonical `generated_plan_path` and `plan_digest` in
session state. Never edit the plan body.
2. Parse the §11 `implementation_context` pack: `acceptance_criteria`,
`evidence_provenance`, `primary_symbols`, `related_symbols`,
`files_to_modify`, `execution_path`, `pdg_constraints`,
`architectural_patterns`, `tests`, `verification_commands`, `risks`,
`assumptions`, `open_questions`, `avoid`. Compact plans carry the
mini-pack subset — absent optional fields are empty, not errors.
`evidence_provenance` is mandatory: absence or schema 1 means a legacy
plan, not a clean tree. Before relying on it, require exact byte-for-byte
equality between the read-plan receipt's canonical `generated_plan_path`
and `evidence_provenance.generated_plan_path`.
3. **Two-layer drift check — always recompute.** Even when current HEAD is the
same HEAD as the plan pin, recompute both the canonical global dirty digest
and the sorted cited-path manifest. Read
`references/evidence-provenance.md`, then invoke this skill's
`scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` with the plan's exact
`generated_plan_path`, every cited manifest path, and schema version 2.
Never recreate its bytes in shell or prose. Schema 1 cannot be recomputed
unambiguously and requires conservative re-anchoring. Include
object kind plus HEAD/index/worktree/untracked layer digests, and classify
`staged`, `unstaged`, `untracked`, `deleted`, `renamed`, `mixed`,
and `absent` evidence. Honor the generated-plan exclusion exactly; do not
exclude all plans.
4. **Re-anchor on either mismatch.** Missing or legacy provenance, a HEAD
mismatch, or a global dirty digest mismatch requires a conservative
re-anchor before work:
- Diff every cited-path manifest entry. Changed cited paths — including
staged-only, unstaged-only, deleted, both rename endpoints, mixed
staged+unstaged, and disappeared untracked paths — get their cited ranges
re-read before reliance.
- Compare the current whole-tree dirty set with the pinned global digest.
New uncited dirty paths get a scope assessment: determine whether they
overlap the plan, requirements, tests, or a key technical decision; do not
silently ignore them merely because they are uncited.
- Unreadable or unclassifiable cited evidence blocks every dependent step
until it can be restored, read, or resolved with the user. Never substitute
an invented digest or treat absence as an empty file.
- Keep the re-anchor result in session state; never mutate the plan body.
Use Deepen only if reconciliation invalidates scope, requirements, a key
technical decision (KTD), or the planned implementation seam. Ordinary
byte drift that leaves those decisions valid is re-verified locally.
5. **Re-verify `assumptions` cheaply** (each one names what to check).
A failed assumption is a stop-and-replan signal for the steps that
depend on it, not something to code around silently.
6. Note `open_questions` — if one blocks a step and the answer materially
changes the work, ask the user before that step, not after.
7. **Pre-completed check.** If commits for this plan already exist on the
branch (a prior partial run, or a post-route-back Deepen cycle), verify
which §7 steps have landed at HEAD: those are skipped and reported as
pre-completed, and execution resumes at the first unlanded step. All
steps landed → report that and stop.
## Phase 2 — Environment
- On the default branch → create a feature branch named from the plan slug.
On a feature branch already → stay only if it is meaningful _for this
plan_ (name matches the plan slug, or the user confirms); otherwise
branch from here with the slug name.
- If the plan document is not yet committed, commit it now
(`docs(plans): add <slug> plan`) — the plan travels with the work it
drives, and the final review diff then includes it.
- Confirm the `verification_commands` from the pack actually run in this
checkout (dependencies installed, builds present) before starting, not
after the last step.
### Build-current/index-current procedure
This is the single graph-freshness procedure owned by `gitnexus-work`; it
applies in plan mode and direct mode. Before every graph-dependent `impact`
query, run the Build-current/index-current procedure. Before final graph
verification, run the same Build-current/index-current procedure again.
1. Capture current HEAD and working-tree provenance. Read
`gitnexus://repo/<name>/context` and use its typed `index.commit` and
`index.runner_identity` receipt — never infer analyzer identity from prose,
timestamps, or a path alone. Compare `index.commit` with current HEAD. A
current receipt has `schemaVersion: 4`, resolved runtime path/version, CLI
version, invoked-artifact path/digest, build
kind/root/canonicalization/digest, and dependency-runtime
manifest/lockfile/canonicalization/package-count/artifact-count/digest. Its
dependency canonicalization is
`gitnexus-analyzer-dependency-runtime-v4`. The dependency-runtime digest
covers resolved package metadata and complete loadable package payloads,
including JavaScript, JSON, native, Wasm, and parser artifacts; schema-1,
schema-2, and schema-3 receipts are legacy/stale (the MCP context labels
them `runner_identity_schema_status: legacy-or-unknown`). Require MCP
`index.incomplete_reasons: []`. Run the exact candidate CLI's
`status --json` command and require `index.runnerIdentityStatus: current`,
`index.incompleteReasons: []`, and top-level `status: up-to-date`. The
status comparator checks every semantic field while deliberately excluding
only diagnostic `invokedArtifact`; a worker-authored persisted receipt and
the CLI's live receipt may therefore differ in that field without becoming
stale. Missing, malformed, differently versioned, semantically unequal, or
incomplete receipts are unknown/stale, not a match.
2. Relationship-affecting committed and uncommitted edits invalidate
freshness after the last successful procedure run. This includes staged,
unstaged, untracked, deleted, or renamed analyzer/source/config changes
that can alter symbols or edges. Any such edit between steps requires an
inter-step refresh before the next graph query, even when HEAD did not move.
3. If the typed runner receipt is stale or unknown in an analyzer-source
checkout, build current local source using the verified package script. In
this repo: `cd gitnexus && npm run build`. Resolve the package's `bin`
target and run that exact artifact's `status --json` command to capture its
current receipt. Source/build timestamps are a conservative rebuild
trigger, not proof that an artifact is current.
4. Invoke that exact freshly built local CLI from the target repo root with
PDG layers enabled. In this repo:
`node gitnexus/dist/cli/index.js analyze --index-only --pdg`.
Add `--force` when the persisted receipt was absent, malformed,
differently versioned, or unequal so an already-up-to-date fast path cannot
leave legacy/stale provenance in place. The usual project-runner form,
`node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze`, is acceptable only when its proven runner
identity resolves to that same freshly built artifact. Do not fall back to
an older project runner, global install, or package download after
resolving/building the local artifact.
5. Re-read index context, rerun the exact invoked CLI's `status --json`, and
prove the post-refresh `index.commit` equals current HEAD, MCP
`index.incomplete_reasons` is empty, and its complete
`index.runner_identity` equals status `index.runnerIdentity` (the persisted
receipt). Require status `index.runnerIdentityStatus: current`, empty
`index.incompleteReasons`, and top-level `status: up-to-date`; do not require
raw equality with `current.runnerIdentity` because `invokedArtifact` is a
diagnostic entrypoint deliberately excluded from semantic freshness.
Record the dirty-state digest indexed in this procedure so same-HEAD
uncommitted edits can invalidate it later.
6. Any build, refresh, metadata-read, or identity-verification failure blocks
graph-dependent impact work and final completion. Report the failing
command and evidence; do not continue on an older graph.
## Phase 3 — Execute the Implementation Sequence
Work through plan §7 step by step, in order. For each step:
1. **Fresh impact before editing.** Run the Build-current/index-current
procedure immediately before every graph-dependent
`impact {target, direction: "upstream"}` query. Then account for every
direct (d=1) dependent. HIGH or CRITICAL risk → surface it to the user
with the blast radius before proceeding (repo mandate — see AGENTS.md
GitNexus rules).
2. **Honor the constraints.** `pdg_constraints` entries state ordering and
dependence facts the change must preserve; `avoid` entries are hard
prohibitions; `architectural_patterns` name the shape to mirror (read the
example location before inventing one).
3. **Implement minimally.** The smallest change that completes the step,
following the surrounding code's conventions.
4. **Test from the plan's scenarios.** Each `tests[]` scenario (input →
action → expected outcome) becomes a real test in the named file. Add
coverage the plan missed if the step's behavior demands it; never delete
or weaken an assertion to make a step pass. Prove a new regression test
discriminates: when the failure mode is subtle, run it once against the
pre-fix tree (write the test before the fix, or stash the fix) and watch
it fail — a test that passes both ways pins nothing.
5. **Verify.** Run the step-relevant `verification_commands` (they carry
their build prerequisites; use them as written). If any part of the
change executes from build output — worker entrypoints, dist-shipped
CLIs, bundled assets — rebuild that output before every verification
run: a pass or fail against outdated build output is noise, and "the
fix doesn't work" is more often "the fix never loaded".
6. **Commit atomically.** `detect_changes {scope: "staged"}` before every
commit to confirm only the expected symbols and flows are affected
(repo mandate); then one conventional commit per step. Run stage →
`detect_changes` → commit as one unbroken sequence from the repository
root — interleaving other work between the gate and the commit is how
the gate gets skipped. Unexpected
affected flows → investigate before committing, not after.
A relationship-affecting implementation edit or commit invalidates the
procedure's prior proof. The next step must perform the required inter-step
refresh before its impact query; final verification refreshes again after the
last edit.
Steps are independently actionable: after any commit the tree is coherent.
If a step reveals the plan is wrong, stop that step, re-verify the affected
claims at HEAD, and either adapt (small, in-scope deviation — record it in
the commit message and final summary) or route back to `gitnexus-plan`
Deepen mode (structural miss) — with a one-line ask to the user when the
choice isn't obvious.
## Phase 4 — Finish
1. Run the full `verification_commands` suite once, at the end, even if
every step already passed individually.
2. Walk plan §13 (Definition of Done) and the pack's `acceptance_criteria`
item by item; anything unmet is either finished now or reported as
explicitly unmet — never silently dropped.
3. **Verify the final knowledge graph.** Before final graph verification, run
the same Build-current/index-current procedure after the last edit, even
when no commit landed or HEAD still equals the original pin. Then run
`detect_changes {scope: "all"}` (or the repo's equivalent final graph
check) against that proven-current index and account for every unexpected
symbol or flow. A procedure failure blocks completion.
4. Report: steps completed, commits made, deviations from the plan (with
why), assumptions that failed re-verification, DoD status, final indexed
commit and runner identity, and anything deferred. Test failures are
reported with their output, not smoothed over.
## Never
- Skip the Phase 3 gates: no symbol edit without `impact`, no commit without
`detect_changes`.
- Expand scope beyond the plan — §12's deferred follow-ups stay deferred.
- Mutate the plan body (committing the file verbatim in Phase 2 is not
mutation), weaken failing tests, or present unverified work as verified.
## Skill feedback (GitNexus repo only)
If this run exposed friction in this skill's own instructions — wrong or
missing guidance, a wasted tool budget, a phase that misrouted — and the repo
carries `eval/workflow_bench/`, append one JSON line to
`eval/workflow_bench/learnings.jsonl` (create the file if absent):
`{"skill": "gitnexus-work", "date": "YYYY-MM-DD", "task": "<one line>", "friction": "<one line>", "suggestion": "<one line>"}`.
Never edit this skill file itself from a live task: improvements go through
the offline candidate loop (`eval/workflow_bench/README.md` § Prompt and
skill evolution loop), where a candidate must beat the incumbent on the
paired benchmark before a human merges it.

# Evidence provenance serializer v2 and safe plan writer
This file is the normative byte contract for `evidence_provenance` schema 2.
The adjacent `scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs` is its executable definition.
`gitnexus-plan` and `gitnexus-work` carry byte-identical copies so either skill
can produce the same snapshot without relying on the other skill's install.
It is also the only supported write boundary for a generated plan. Never
recreate the digest with an ad-hoc shell pipeline or write the plan destination
directly.
## Invocation
From the target repository root, run the helper belonging to the active skill:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs read-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md
```
`read-plan` is the only supported way to load an existing plan for Deepen or
execution. It emits a JSON receipt with the canonical `generated_plan_path`,
`bytes_read`, exact `plan_bytes_base64`, and `plan_digest` (`sha256:<hex>`).
Decode and consume those exact bytes; do not reopen the lexical path. Retain
the canonical path and digest together for the complete Deepen session; a
receipt for one path never authorizes another, even when their bytes match.
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs snapshot \
--repo "$PWD" \
--schema-version 2 \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--cited src/one.ts \
--cited test/one.test.ts
```
Pass one `--cited` argument for every cited path. The helper emits the complete
JSON value for `evidence_provenance`; copy that value without rewriting fields.
`gitnexus-work` passes the plan's `schema_version`, `generated_plan_path`, and
every path in `cited_path_manifest`. Schema 1 is legacy and deliberately
rejected, so the executor must conservatively re-anchor it under schema 2.
After the snapshot is in the fully composed document, publish its exact UTF-8
bytes through the same helper:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
< /path/to/outside-repo-scratch-plan.md
```
For Deepen only:
```bash
node <skill-dir>/scripts/evidence-provenance.mjs write-plan \
--repo "$PWD" \
--generated-plan docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--replace \
--expected-plan-path docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-example-change-plan.md \
--expected-plan-digest 'sha256:<digest-from-read-plan>' \
< /path/to/outside-repo-scratch-plan.md
```
Initial planning never passes `--replace`; an existing destination is an
error. Deepen mode rewrites the same path by adding `--replace`,
`--expected-plan-path <generated_plan_path-from-read-plan>`, and
`--expected-plan-digest <plan_digest-from-that-same-receipt>`. Standard input must be
valid UTF-8 and at most 16 MiB. A successful write prints a JSON receipt with
the normalized `generated_plan_path` and `bytes_written`. A successful Deepen
write also returns `prior_plan_backup_git_path`, a durable Git-admin path for
the displaced plan. The CLI rejects every option that does not apply to its
selected command; the direct API likewise requires literal booleans and exact
digest strings rather than truthy coercion.
## Path contract
Every Git path and CLI path must be valid UTF-8, already normalized to Unicode
NFC, and a nonempty POSIX repo-relative path. NUL, backslash, absolute/drive
paths, empty components, and `.` or `..` components are rejected. The helper
does not silently repair or alias them. Invalid UTF-8 from Git, non-NFC names,
unmerged index stages, unsupported Git modes, sockets/devices/FIFOs, unreadable
objects, symlink traversal in a parent path component, or a repository mutation
observed during the snapshot fail closed.
The generated-plan path is always repo-relative under schema 2. Snapshot
exclusion and writing require exactly
`docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-gitnexus-plan-<3-5-word-kebab-slug>.md`, including a
valid calendar date; they cannot target `.git`, source, configuration, or an
arbitrary repo file. For compatibility with documented and legacy plans,
`read-plan` accepts normalized files matching `docs/plans/*gitnexus-plan*.md`,
while retaining the same descriptor-anchored containment checks. That read
compatibility does not widen the writer. External output has no schema-2
representation. The snapshot exclusion is one exact normalized path
comparison. No glob, directory, basename, or `docs/plans/`-wide exclusion is
permitted. If the exact path is a rename endpoint, only that endpoint record is
excluded.
## Safe existing-plan read contract
`read-plan` fails closed unless Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`, and
`O_NOFOLLOW` are available. It resolves the exact Git top-level, opens the
repository root and every plan parent as held no-follow directory descriptors,
rejects missing, symlink, non-directory, and escaping parents, and opens the
leaf with `O_NOFOLLOW`. It reads at most 16 MiB from that held file descriptor,
requires valid UTF-8, hashes the exact bytes, then proves both the parent chain
and lexical leaf still name the same held objects before returning its receipt.
Neither Deepen nor work may parse bytes obtained before or outside this receipt.
## Safe generated-plan write contract
The writer fails closed unless Linux `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`,
`O_NOFOLLOW`, and Python 3 with libc `renameat2(RENAME_NOREPLACE)` support are
available. Python may live in `/usr/local`, a Nix profile, or another absolute
PATH directory, but the helper accepts only a resolved executable and
containing directory owned by root or the current user and not writable by
group/other. The resolved executable is opened without following links and
invoked through that held descriptor. Relative PATH entries are ignored. The plan parent and the
repository's Git-admin directory must also share a filesystem. It resolves
the target repository's exact Git top-level, opens that root and every
destination parent as held no-follow directory descriptors, creates missing
parents relative to those descriptors, and proves the descriptor and lexical
chains still identify the same directories at the write boundary. A symlink
or non-directory parent, an escaping resolved path, a symlink/non-regular final
target, or a parent swap is an error.
The writer creates a random exclusive temporary file relative to the held final
parent descriptor and keeps its no-follow descriptor open. It writes and
flushes the bytes, binds the temporary name to the opened inode, and hashes the
open file before publication. Immediately before publication it revalidates
the parent and the temporary path, inode, size, and digest. Publication uses an
atomic no-replace move relative to the held directory descriptor. Initial mode
therefore cannot overwrite a destination that appears after the absent check.
The writer then flushes the directory and revalidates the committed path by
opening it with `O_NOFOLLOW`, hashing both the original temporary fd and the
path-bound fd, and performing a second descriptor-anchored path identity check
after hashing. A detected mutation or replacement aborts instead of accepting
mixed-era output.
`--replace` accepts only a pre-existing regular file and is reserved for
Deepen; without it, accidental overwrite is rejected. It also requires the
exact canonical `generated_plan_path` and `plan_digest` from the same session's
`read-plan` receipt. The expected path must exactly equal the write
destination, so identical bytes from one plan cannot authorize another plan.
Immediately before
preservation, the writer hashes the still-held prior-plan fd and rejects any
digest, inode, or path mismatch, including same-inode edits and changes between
read and write. It then atomically moves the current destination without
replacement to a random `gitnexus-plan-backups/` file under the resolved
Git-admin directory and verifies the moved inode and digest against that held
fd. Only then does it publish the new plan with the same atomic no-replace
primitive. A destination that reappears at either boundary is left untouched.
Every newly created plan or vault directory is fsynced and then fsynced into
its containing directory. Every cross-directory preservation move fsyncs both
its source and destination directories before success or a recovery path is
reported. After temporary bytes exist, a failed publication or verification preserves
every available prior, displaced, unpublished, or intended plan in that
Git-admin vault before reporting failure. Each reported recovery is reopened
from a freshly resolved Git root and verified before the error names it as
`git-path:gitnexus-plan-backups/<random-name>`. Resolve that value with
`git rev-parse --git-path gitnexus-plan-backups/<random-name>`; never interpret
it as a repo-relative working-tree path. This remains valid if the held plan
parent was renamed after publication. The writer never reports recovery
through a stale lexical parent and never performs an identity-check-then-unlink
rollback that could delete a racer's replacement. Read-only or unsupported
checkouts produce a blocking error. Callers must not bypass the helper,
redirect to an external path, or weaken these checks.
## Canonical bytes
The `global_dirty_digest.value` is lowercase SHA-256 (without a `sha256:`
prefix) over this byte stream. All textual values are their exact UTF-8 bytes.
`NUL` below is one `0x00` byte.
1. Prefix fields, each followed by NUL, then one additional NUL:
`gitnexus-evidence-provenance`, `schema_version`, `2`.
2. Zero or more records sorted by unsigned lexicographic comparison of the
normalized path's UTF-8 bytes. Locale and filesystem order are forbidden.
3. Each record is `record` + NUL, then the following fixed-order sequence of
`field-name` + NUL + `field-value` + NUL pairs, then one additional NUL:
`path`, `state`, `head_kind`, `index_kind`, `worktree_kind`,
`untracked_kind`, `rename_from`, `rename_to`, `head_digest`,
`index_digest`, `worktree_digest`, `untracked_digest`.
4. The literal `absent` represents every unavailable rename endpoint, object
kind, and layer digest in canonical bytes. It is never an empty string.
The schema's canonicalization literal is exactly
`gitnexus-evidence-provenance-v2 NUL-framed UTF-8 records`. The fixed field
count plus the extra NUL after prefix/record makes framing unambiguous; values
cannot contain NUL. Duplicate normalized paths are rejected.
## Records, renames, and states
The raw dirty set comes from Git porcelain v2 with NUL termination, all
untracked files, submodule inspection enabled, a fixed 50% rename threshold,
and both `diff.renameLimit=0` and `status.renameLimit=0`, so repository config
cannot cap rename candidates. Raw porcelain facts that share a path are merged
into one canonical record. A rename contributes two endpoint facts:
- old endpoint: `path=<old>`, `rename_from=absent`, `rename_to=<new>`;
- new endpoint: `path=<new>`, `rename_from=<old>`, `rename_to=absent`.
Both normally have state `renamed`; record sorting, not old/new role,
determines order. A worktree-dirty rename destination or any endpoint that also
has another fact is `mixed`, with rename metadata retained. When either endpoint
is cited, the cited manifest expands to include both.
Ordinary `XY` status maps to `mixed` when index and worktree columns are both
dirty, otherwise `deleted` for a deletion, `staged` for index-only change, and
`unstaged` for worktree-only change. `?` is `untracked`. Multiple distinct
facts for the same path become `mixed`; a staged deletion plus a recreated file
therefore retains HEAD/index facts while the filesystem object is recorded in
the untracked layer. `? child/` is Git's embedded-directory marker: the trailing
slash is removed before path normalization and `child` is materialized as one
bounded directory object. A cited path outside the dirty set is `clean`,
`untracked` when it exists only outside Git layers, or `absent` when no layer
exists.
## Object and digest rules
Every present layer digest is `sha256:<lowercase-hex>`:
- HEAD regular/symlink: SHA-256 of the exact Git blob bytes. HEAD directory:
SHA-256 of the exact raw Git tree bytes. HEAD gitlink: SHA-256 of the ASCII
object ID stored by the tree.
- Index regular/symlink: SHA-256 of the stage-0 Git blob bytes. Index gitlink:
SHA-256 of its ASCII object ID. The index has no directory layer. Any
non-stage-0 entry is rejected.
- Tracked worktree regular: raw file bytes, opened without following symlinks.
Symlink: raw link-target bytes. Gitlink: ASCII object ID at the checked-out
nested HEAD, but only after `rev-parse --show-toplevel` proves that the
directory itself is the nested repository root, `HEAD` resolves there, and
porcelain v2 reports no staged, unstaged, untracked, or ignored nested changes. The
same root, HEAD, and clean-status proof is repeated by the mutation guard. A
dirty, empty, uninitialized, or parent-falling-through gitlink fails closed.
Directory: the v1 directory stream described below.
- A path absent from both HEAD and index places the filesystem object in the
`untracked` layer and marks `worktree` absent. A Git-backed path places it in
`worktree` and marks `untracked` absent. A missing layer uses literal
`absent` for both kind and digest; an empty file is the SHA-256 of zero bytes.
Filesystem directory bytes use prefix fields
`gitnexus-evidence-directory`, `schema_version`, `1`, the same NUL framing,
and recursive entries sorted by unsigned UTF-8 relative-path bytes. Each entry
has fixed fields `path`, `kind`, `digest`. A single bottom-up filesystem walk
visits each node once and returns each child digest plus the flattened subtree
needed to preserve those canonical bytes; links are never followed. When the
directory is proven to be an exact nested Git top-level, only its administrative
`.git` entry is excluded. Every other child, including working files and nested
directories, remains evidence.
Each directory object is bounded to 10,000 visited entries, depth 256, and 256
MiB of regular-file content. Exceeding a bound fails closed. These bounds apply
independently to each top-level directory object materialized by a record.
HEAD objects are read only from the full object ID captured at snapshot start;
the symbolic `HEAD` name is never re-resolved for layers. Index layers are
parsed from one captured stage-0 listing. The helper guards the corresponding
HEAD/ref/reflog controls and raw index file, compares the captured listing at
the end, and rejects ordinary A-to-B-to-A mutations instead of accepting
mixed-era layers.
Regular files are read through an `O_NOFOLLOW` descriptor with before/after
identity checks. Symlinks use lstat/readlink/lstat; directories record identity
before and after their inventory. The helper also compares raw porcelain-v2
status and HEAD at the start and end, then rechecks filesystem guards. An
absent cited path holds a no-follow descriptor for the nearest existing parent
and records the first missing component or leaf; that anchored absence is
checked both before and after the final Git status pass, so a newly created
ignored path cannot evade porcelain. Any observed race rejects the snapshot
rather than emitting mixed-era evidence.

description: "Use when the user wants to review a pull request, understand what a PR changes, assess risk of merging, or check for missing test coverage. Examples: \"Review this PR\", \"What does PR #42 change?\", \"Is this PR safe to merge?\""
---
# PR Review with GitNexus
## When to Use
- "Review this PR"
- "What does PR #42 change?"
- "Is this safe to merge?"
- "What's the blast radius of this PR?"
- "Are there missing tests for this PR?"
- Reviewing someone else's code changes before merge
## Workflow
```
1. gh pr diff <number> → Get the raw diff
2. detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"}) → Map diff to affected flows
3. For each changed symbol:
impact({target: "<symbol>", direction: "upstream"}) → Blast radius per change
4. context({name: "<key symbol>"}) → Understand callers/callees
5. READ gitnexus://repo/{name}/processes → Check affected execution flows
6. Summarize findings with risk assessment
```
> If "Index is stale" → run `node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze` in terminal before reviewing.
## Checklist
```
- [ ] Fetch PR diff (gh pr diff or git diff base...head)
- [ ] detect_changes to map changes to affected execution flows
- [ ] impact on each non-trivial changed symbol
- [ ] Review d=1 items (WILL BREAK) — are callers updated?
- [ ] context on key changed symbols to understand full picture
- [ ] Check if affected processes have test coverage
- [ ] Assess overall risk level
- [ ] Write review summary with findings
```
## Review Dimensions
| Dimension | How GitNexus Helps |
| --- | --- |
| **Correctness** | `context` shows callers — are they all compatible with the change? |
| **Blast radius** | `impact` shows d=1/d=2/d=3 dependents — anything missed? |
| **Completeness** | `detect_changes` shows all affected flows — are they all handled? |
| **Test coverage** | `impact({includeTests: true})` shows which tests touch changed code |
| **Breaking changes** | d=1 upstream items that aren't updated in the PR = potential breakage |
## Risk Assessment
| Signal | Risk |
| --- | --- |
| Changes touch <3 symbols, 0-1 processes | LOW |
| Changes touch 3-10 symbols, 2-5 processes | MEDIUM |
| Changes touch >10 symbols or many processes | HIGH |
| Changes touch auth, payments, or data integrity code | CRITICAL |
| d=1 callers exist outside the PR diff | Potential breakage — flag it |
## Tools
**detect_changes** — map PR diff to affected execution flows:
```
detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"})
→ Changed: 8 symbols in 4 files
→ Affected processes: CheckoutFlow, RefundFlow, WebhookHandler
→ Risk: MEDIUM
```
**impact** — blast radius per changed symbol:
```
impact({target: "validatePayment", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1 (WILL BREAK):
- processCheckout (src/checkout.ts:42) [CALLS, 100%]
- webhookHandler (src/webhooks.ts:15) [CALLS, 100%]
→ d=2 (LIKELY AFFECTED):
- checkoutRouter (src/routes/checkout.ts:22) [CALLS, 95%]
```
**impact with tests** — check test coverage:
```
impact({target: "validatePayment", direction: "upstream", includeTests: true})
→ Tests that cover this symbol:
- validatePayment.test.ts [direct]
- checkout.integration.test.ts [via processCheckout]
```
**context** — understand a changed symbol's role:
```
context({name: "validatePayment"})
→ Incoming calls: processCheckout, webhookHandler
→ Outgoing calls: verifyCard, fetchRates
→ Processes: CheckoutFlow (step 3/7), RefundFlow (step 1/5)
```
## Example: "Review PR #42"
```
1. gh pr diff 42 > /tmp/pr42.diff
→ 4 files changed: payments.ts, checkout.ts, types.ts, utils.ts
2. detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"})
→ Changed symbols: validatePayment, PaymentInput, formatAmount
→ Affected processes: CheckoutFlow, RefundFlow
→ Risk: MEDIUM
3. impact({target: "validatePayment", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1: processCheckout, webhookHandler (WILL BREAK)
→ webhookHandler is NOT in the PR diff — potential breakage!
4. impact({target: "PaymentInput", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1: validatePayment (in PR), createPayment (NOT in PR)
→ createPayment uses the old PaymentInput shape — breaking change!
5. context({name: "formatAmount"})
→ Called by 12 functions — but change is backwards-compatible (added optional param)
6. Review summary:
- MEDIUM risk — 3 changed symbols affect 2 execution flows
- BUG: webhookHandler calls validatePayment but isn't updated for new signature
- BUG: createPayment depends on PaymentInput type which changed
- OK: formatAmount change is backwards-compatible
- Tests: checkout.test.ts covers processCheckout path, but no webhook test
```
## Review Output Format

```markdown

# GitNexus review
Review the requested change surface without editing source, committing, pushing,
posting, or resolving threads. A later explicit request may authorize those
actions. Use GitNexus for structural evidence and source inspection for proof;
neither substitutes for the other.
## Resolve the target
Accept these forms:
| Input | Review surface |
| ------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| PR URL, `owner/repo#42`, `#42`, or bare number | GitHub PR |
| `base...head` | Merge-base range |
| `base..head` | Exact two-dot range |
| Branch, tag, or commit | Ref against the repository default branch |
| `local`, `staged`, `unstaged`, or working-tree wording | Local changes |
| No target | Current branch's open PR; otherwise local changes; otherwise current branch |
An explicit target always wins. Interpret a bare number as a PR only in a
GitHub repository with working `gh` authentication; otherwise ask for a ref or
URL. If implicit mode finds both branch commits and local changes, review them
as two labeled surfaces rather than silently dropping or blending either one.
Record the resolved target kind, repository root, default branch, base SHA,
head SHA, merge-base when applicable, and included local states. Resolve the
default branch from remote metadata (`refs/remotes/<remote>/HEAD` or GitHub
repository metadata); use `main` or `master` only as an explicit fallback and
say when doing so.
### PR
Use `gh pr view`/`gh api` to pin the PR number, repository, title, URL, base
ref, base SHA, head ref, and head SHA. Fetch those exact commits without
switching the user's branch. Compute `git merge-base <base> <head>` and use
that SHA as the review base: GitHub PR diffs are merge-base diffs, while
`detect_changes(scope: "compare")` is a two-dot comparison.
Use the local `git diff <merge-base> <head>` as the complete diff source of
truth; use GitHub metadata for PR facts and review state. For fork PRs, fetch
the pull ref or the contributor remote instead of assuming the head branch
exists on `origin`.
### Branch, ref, or range
Resolve every ref to a commit before reviewing. For a branch or `A...B`, use
the merge-base as the comparison base. For an explicit `A..B`, honor `A` as
the exact base. Do not compare a feature branch directly with a moving default
branch tip when merge-base semantics were intended.
### Local changes
Inspect `git status --short`, the staged diff, the unstaged diff, and every
untracked file. Use `detect_changes` with `staged`, `unstaged`, or `all` as
requested. Untracked files are not guaranteed to appear in Git diff or graph
mapping, so read them directly and list them in the review provenance.
## Align the checkout and index
The graph and diff must describe the same head. Reuse an existing worktree only
when it is at the exact target SHA. Otherwise create a temporary detached
worktree for the PR/ref head, review there, and remove only that temporary
worktree afterward. Never switch or reset the user's current worktree.
Check GitNexus status in the target worktree. If stale, run
`node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze --index-only` before trusting graph results
(temporary worktrees never carry the gitignored `run.cjs` — fall back to the
installed `gitnexus` CLI, then `npx gitnexus`), and include `--pdg` in that
same refresh when the diff plausibly touches trust or data-flow boundaries,
so the taint pass below doesn't pay a second full analyze. Taint and
dependence evidence needs that PDG layer: when the workflow's taint pass
finds it missing, rebuild with `analyze --pdg --index-only` and record the
rebuild in provenance. For local changes, refresh the index so new or
modified source is represented.
If an exact target checkout/index cannot be established, state the limitation
and do not claim a complete graph-backed review.
## Review workflow
1. Read the full diff and changed-file list. Separate generated files,
dependency churn, tests, and behavior changes.
2. Run `detect_changes` against the exact surface:
- PR/branch/`...`: `scope: "compare"`, `base_ref: <merge-base SHA>`.
- Explicit `A..B`: `scope: "compare"`, `base_ref: <A SHA>` from a worktree
at `B`.
- Local: `scope: "staged"`, `"unstaged"`, or `"all"`.
Pass `worktree` when the MCP server is attached elsewhere.
3. Run upstream `impact` with `includeTests: true` for each behaviorally changed
symbol. Prioritize public contracts, shared types, control flow, persistence,
security boundaries, and error handling; skip mechanical/generated changes.
4. Inspect every direct (`d=1`) dependent that is outside the diff. A dependent
outside the diff is a lead, not automatically a bug—verify the changed
contract and caller behavior in source.
5. Use `context` on key or ambiguous symbols and inspect affected execution
flows. Read the surrounding implementation and tests at cited locations.
6. **Taint and dependence pass.** For changed code on trust or data-flow
boundaries — external input, persistence, process execution, network,
auth — run `explain` on the changed files or symbols and judge its
source→sink taint findings against the diff: a flow the change
introduces, or a sanitizer/guard the change removes, is a finding; a
pre-existing flow is context, not a defect of this change. When the
change claims to guard or sanitize something, verify with `pdg_query`:
what controls the changed statement, and where its values flow. This
needs a `--pdg` index; if one cannot be built, state that the taint pass
was skipped rather than implying coverage.
7. Check whether tests exercise the changed behavior, boundary conditions, and
affected flows. Run focused read-only validation when practical. When the
diff refreshes a committed baseline, fingerprint, or golden, re-run the
exact CI check command against the head instead of trusting the committed
value — a stale artifact is invisible in the diff and fails only in CI.
8. Reconcile graph evidence with the raw diff. New files, dynamic dispatch,
configuration, reflection, and untracked content may require direct review
even when graph results are empty. Version and invalidation constants are
review surface: when the diff changes what gets emitted or persisted,
verify every schema/version constant gating caches, incremental
writebacks, and fingerprint baselines was bumped or regenerated — in
GitNexus itself, for example: `INCREMENTAL_SCHEMA_VERSION` (the
incremental write set covers only changed files, so new cross-file edges
never reach an existing index without the bump), the parse-store
`SCHEMA_BUMP`, and both bench fingerprint sets.
## Expert lenses
Depth comes from matching reviewers to what actually changed, not from one
generalist pass. After workflow step 2, group the changed files and symbols
by the functional areas the graph already knows — the index's cluster
listing; `context` names each symbol's cluster — and give each touched area
an expert lens: a reviewer charged with that domain's contracts, invariants,
and failure modes, grounded in the repo's own material (architecture docs,
agent rules, the domain's tests) before judging the diff. A lens verifies,
not just reads: when the changed code is a pure function reachable from the
repo's own toolchain — parsers, extractors, capture emitters, formatters —
execute it on the candidate failing shape (a scratch probe, deleted
afterward) and cite the observed output. An empirical probe outranks source
reading in the evidence hierarchy; role swaps, dead branches, and
error-recovery-dependent behavior repeatedly pass a reading and fail a
ten-line probe. The numbered
workflow runs exactly once; dispatch the lens passes after step 6, handing
each lens the evidence already collected rather than letting lenses repeat
the `impact`, `context`, or taint calls. In GitNexus
itself, for example: shared ingestion-pipeline changes get an ingestion
expert plus one language expert per changed language extractor; embeddings
changes an embeddings expert; LadybugDB/storage changes a Ladybug expert.
Four cross-cutting lenses run regardless of domain:
- **Architectural fit** — the change lands where the architecture says the
concern lives, reuses existing seams, and adds no parallel structure.
- **Language conformance** — the repo's own type/lint/test contract as
configured (tsconfig strictness, lint rules, test conventions); in a
strict TypeScript repo, for example: strictness intact, no `any`/`as any`
escapes, module boundaries typed. Judge by the repo's contract, never a
universal style bar.
- **Definition of Done** — changed behavior has tests, docs the change makes
stale are updated, and sync/drift guards (shipped copies, manifests,
changelogs) still hold.
- **Simplicity** — YAGNI and clear-code check: flag speculative abstraction,
unused knobs, and overengineering; the smallest diff that meets the
Definition of Done is the standard.
Scale effort to the surface: a single-domain change of a few files gets one
combined pass covering its domain lens plus the four cross-cutting checks;
a multi-domain change gets one lens per touched area — run as parallel
subagents where the harness supports them, each scoped to its own files
plus the shared graph evidence, and as sequential passes otherwise. Never
spawn a lens for a domain the diff does not touch. Merge lenses that ground
in the same material — two lenses reading the same files pay twice for one
read's coverage, so give one reviewer both charges. Where the harness
offers model or effort tiers, run mechanical lenses (rename sweeps,
doc-consistency checks) on a cheaper tier and reserve the strongest engine
for adversarial judgment. Every lens reports
through the Finding standard below; merge and dedup before the verdict,
dropping anything without a concrete failing scenario.
## Finding standard
Report a finding only when the reviewed change introduces a concrete defect,
regression, security issue, compatibility break, material coverage gap, or a
maintainability cost with a concrete carrying scenario (a dead knob, a
duplicated contract, a drift-prone copy).
Each finding must include:
- severity and a precise `path:line` anchor;
- the failing scenario or contract;
- GitNexus evidence (dependent symbol/process) when applicable;
- why existing code or tests do not mitigate it;
- a concise remediation or missing test.
Do not report style preferences, pre-existing issues, raw risk counts, or
speculation as defects. Do not infer safety from zero graph hits. Calibrate
overall risk from consequence, reachability, reversibility, and test evidence,
not from the number of changed symbols alone.
## Output
Lead with findings in severity order. If there are none, say so explicitly.
Then provide:
```markdown
## Review: <target>
### Findings
- [HIGH|MEDIUM|LOW] `path:line`<problem, evidence, impact, remediation>
### Change and blast-radius summary
- Target/base/head/merge-base and local states reviewed
- Changed symbols and affected execution flows
### Coverage and residual risk
- Tests present, tests missing, graph/diff limitations
### Verdict
APPROVE | REQUEST CHANGES | NEEDS DISCUSSION
```
For a branch or local review, use `READY`, `NOT READY`, or `NEEDS DISCUSSION`
instead of a PR approval action. Include the exact target SHAs so a later run
can tell whether the evidence is stale.

# gitnexus-lfg — plan → gate → work → review
Thin pipeline orchestrator over three existing skills: `gitnexus-plan`
produces the plan (asking up front how deep to go), the user chooses at a
blocking gate to proceed or stop (an explicit deepen request is still
honored), `gitnexus-work` executes it as verified atomic commits, and
`gitnexus-review` reviews the result (the open PR if one exists, else the
branch diff against the default branch). One bounded fix cycle for review
findings, then a final report. It never pushes or opens a PR on its own.
## Invocation
| CLI | How to invoke |
|-----|---------------|
| **Claude Code** | `/gitnexus-lfg <task description>` or `/gitnexus-lfg docs/plans/<plan>.md` |
| **Codex CLI** | Ask: "run the gitnexus pipeline on <task>" (Codex reads `AGENTS.md`), or install the skill user-level (below) |
### Codex (user-level install)
```
cp -r .claude/skills/gitnexus-lfg ~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-lfg
```
Optionally, for an explicit slash command, create
`~/.codex/prompts/gitnexus-lfg.md`:

Read `~/.agents/skills/gitnexus-lfg/SKILL.md` (prefer the repo copy at
`.claude/skills/gitnexus-lfg/SKILL.md` when present) and follow its lanes in
order, invoking the real gitnexus-plan / gitnexus-work / gitnexus-review
skills for each lane. Stop at the plan gate for the user's choice.
```
## The three lanes
| Lane | Skill | Gate |
|------|-------|------|
| Plan | `gitnexus-plan` (`.claude/skills/gitnexus-plan/`) | Depth asked up front; blocking gate: proceed / stop |
| Work | `gitnexus-work` (`.claude/skills/gitnexus-work/`) | Structural drift routes back to the plan gate |
| Review | `gitnexus-review` (`.claude/skills/gitnexus-review/`) | One fix cycle max, then report |
## Threshold governance (maintainers)
The Lane 1 planning boundary (~35 turns) is a promoted benchmark policy from
the GitNexus repository's `eval/workflow_bench/` paired candidate loop.
Re-evaluate it offline whenever the named model or tool harness changes, and
at least every 90 days; update the SKILL.md threshold only after the
deterministic promotion gate shows no quality regression. Reading agents
never self-edit it from a live task.

# gitnexus-lfg — plan → gate → work → review
Thin orchestrator over three existing skills. It adds no engineering logic of
its own — it sequences `gitnexus-plan`, `gitnexus-work`, and
`gitnexus-review`, with the user deciding at the plan gate. Run every lane
by actually invoking the named skill (read its SKILL.md and follow it);
never inline a summary of what the skill would have done.
```
/gitnexus-lfg <task description>
/gitnexus-lfg docs/plans/<existing-plan>.md # skip lane 1, start at the gate
```
## Lane 1 — Plan
**Boundary triage first.** If the task is plainly below the planning
boundary — trivial or small-bounded work an agent finishes in well under ~35
turns (the measured regime where a planning pass costs more than it returns;
measured in the GitNexus repository's `eval/workflow_bench/`) — say so and
offer `gitnexus-work` direct mode as an alternative to the full pipeline
before spending the plan lane. Honor the user's choice.
The threshold is a promoted benchmark policy measured offline, not a
timeless heuristic — never self-edit it from a live task. Its re-evaluation
governance lives in this skill's README.
Otherwise invoke `gitnexus-plan` with the task (knob overrides pass through
verbatim; `gitnexus-plan` owns the up-front depth question — never ask it
again here). If the input is already a plan file path, skip to Lane 2. The
plan lands in `docs/plans/` — record its path; every later lane consumes it.
## Lane 2 — The plan gate (user choice, blocking)
Present the plan's chat summary (objective, proposed changes, sequence, top
risks, open questions, plan path), then ask the user — as a blocking
question (`AskUserQuestion` in Claude Code; a numbered list in chat on CLIs
without a blocking tool):
1. **Proceed to work** — continue to Lane 3.
2. **Stop here** — the plan file is the deliverable; end the pipeline.
Depth was the user's up-front choice in Lane 1, so deepening is not offered
by default — but honor an explicit request for it at the gate: run
`gitnexus-plan` Deepen mode on the plan file and return here with the
strengthened plan, as many times as the user asks. Do not proceed past the
gate without an explicit choice — the gate is the pipeline's only checkpoint
and exists precisely because execution is expensive to unwind.
**Headless / non-interactive runs:** no one can answer the gate, so end the
pipeline after Lane 1 — the plan file is the deliverable (gate option 2) —
and say so in the final report. Never auto-proceed to execution.
## Lane 3 — Work
Invoke `gitnexus-work` with the plan path. It re-anchors the plan at HEAD,
executes the Implementation Sequence as verified atomic commits, refreshes
the knowledge graph when done (its Phase 4), and reports deviations. If it routes back for re-planning (structural drift), run the
Deepen pass and return to the Lane 2 gate rather than pushing through.
## Lane 4 — Review
Invoke `gitnexus-review` on the completed work. Pass an open PR URL/number
when one exists; otherwise pass the current branch. The review skill owns
target resolution, exact-SHA checkout/index alignment, and merge-base
selection. Do not duplicate that logic here. If work left local changes,
pass `local` as a second, separately labeled review surface.
Surface the review verdict and findings to the user. Findings the user
wants fixed: those within `gitnexus-work`'s direct-mode bounds (12 files,
no architectural decisions) → hand to `gitnexus-work` direct mode; anything
larger → offer the plan gate instead (Deepen the plan with the findings, or
stop). Then re-run this lane's review once. On that re-run, do not start
another fix cycle even if findings remain — report them and point the user
at `/gitnexus-work` (or the plan gate) to continue deliberately.
## Final report
One message: plan path, deepen cycles run, commits produced, verification
status, review verdict with unresolved findings, and what (if anything) was
explicitly left undone. The pipeline does not push or open a PR on its own —
offer both as next steps.
