fix(group): make degraded links, sync warnings and UID-only impact actually work (#3113)
* feat(group-surface): impact selector pass-through + degraded links + sync hygiene

- @group impact forwards target_uid/file_path/kind through service port
  and cross-impact impactParams (was dead-wired: params accepted at MCP
  boundary then dropped at validation).
- crossLinks with unresolved provider symbols carry degraded: true,
  derived at the persistence boundary after merge/dedupe; sync reports
  'degraded links: N' and per-repo extraction failures instead of
  swallowing them; bridge write failures surface as sync warnings;
  contracts.json passes through dedupeContracts.
- Absolute-URL branch restores %7B/%7D around {param} after URL parsing.
- tests: consumer matrix + wildcard folding + degraded pins (261 new);
  SCHEMA_BUMP pin 47 -> 48 (wildcardImports cache shape); sync.ts NUL
  byte rewritten as text escape (no longer binary to git).

* fix(group): impact selector pass-through, degraded links, sync failure hygiene

- @group impact forwards target_uid/file_path/kind through the service
  port into cross-impact impactParams. These were accepted at the MCP
  boundary and then dropped in validation — a dead wire: disambiguating
  an ambiguous impact target never actually reached the per-member impact.
- Cross-links whose provider endpoint never resolves to a graph symbol are
  marked degraded: true at the single persistence boundary (post
  merge/dedupe, before re-export), counted as SyncResult.degradedLinks,
  and surfaced by the sync summary ('degraded links: N') — the remedy
  (re-analyze the provider repo) is documented on the field.
- Sync failure hygiene: a repo whose per-repo extraction throws records
  its reason in SyncResult.failedRepos (still lands in missingRepos, so
  downstream semantics are unchanged) instead of the old silent swallow
  that could persist half a repo's contracts; operator warnings
  accumulate in SyncResult.warnings.

Tests: cross-impact selector threading, degraded-link marking, per-repo
failure reporting.

* style: prettier

* fix(group): make degraded links, sync warnings and UID-only impact actually work

The three fixes this branch claims were wired at the type and payload level
but never at the boundary that produces the values:

- `degraded` was only ever cleared by the exported `dedupeCrossLinks`, which
  the sync path does not use, so `degradedLinks` was always 0. Derivation now
  lives in one exported `applyDegradedFlag` that both the sync finalize and
  the post-merge re-derivation call.
- The bridge-write catch logged an operator warning and dropped it, leaving
  `warnings` permanently `[]`.
- `@group impact` rejected a UID-only call before it parsed `target_uid`, so
  the documented "re-call with target_uid" disambiguation loop was
  unreachable in group mode even though the selectors were forwarded.
- `failedRepos[].repo` reported the registry display name while the repo
  landed in `unreadableRepos` under its group path, so the two lists could
  not be joined; the JSDoc also pointed at the wrong list.
- Restored the truncated `READ THE RESULT:` heading in the group_sync tool
  description and documented degradedLinks / failedRepos / warnings.

Tests pin each value at the boundary that produces it, including the exact
group_sync wire shape, which previously omitted all three new fields.

fix(group)!: stop group sync claiming matching it never did (#3020)
* fix(group)!: remove the matching cascade that was advertised but never built

`gitnexus group create` wrote `matching.bm25_threshold` and
`matching.embedding_threshold` into every generated group.yaml, and no matcher
ever read either one. That was not the whole of it — an entire feature surface
described a BM25/embedding cascade that does not exist:

- `matching.bm25_threshold` / `matching.embedding_threshold` — parsed, persisted,
  unread
- `detect.embedding_fallback` — defaulted and templated, unread
- `MatchType` declared `'bm25' | 'embedding'`; both variants unreachable
- `SyncOptions.skipEmbeddings` — declared in sync.ts and never read
- `gitnexus group sync --skip-embeddings` — accepted, threaded through
  GroupService, ignored
- CLI help in en and zh-CN promised "Exact + BM25 only (no embedding fallback)"
- the MCP `group_sync` schema exposed `skipEmbeddings`, described as
  "Exact + BM25 only (Demo PR: same as default exact path)"

`sync.ts` imports exactly `buildProviderIndex`, `runExactMatch` and
`runWildcardMatch`, and the printed cascade has one stage. An operator whose
links do not match reaches for those thresholds first, and turning either knob
changes nothing — config that silently does nothing is how people conclude a
feature is broken.

Evidence that the cascade should be deleted rather than implemented, from a real
backend/frontend pair: of 165 consumer contracts, 149 link exactly and 16 do not.
Nine of the sixteen are third-party APIs (Google OAuth, Apple public keys,
PostHog, image annotation) with no in-group provider by construction — similarity
matching cannot recover them, it can only invent false links. Two are verb
mismatches: the frontend calls `POST /links` and `GET /links/check-exists` while
the backend declares `GET /links` and eleven other `/links/*` routes but neither
of those, so a fuzzy path match would link a POST consumer to a GET provider. The
rest are path-extraction artifacts. Roughly none of the sixteen would be
correctly recovered, and several would be actively mis-linked.

BREAKING CHANGE: `gitnexus group sync --skip-embeddings` and the MCP `group_sync`
`skipEmbeddings` parameter are removed. Both were accepted and ignored, so no
behavior changes — but a script passing the flag now fails with `unknown option`
instead of being silently misled. Existing group.yaml files keep loading: the
removed keys are simply no longer part of the schema, and a regression test pins
that a legacy config carrying all three still parses.

Closes #3006

* fix(group)!: honour --exact-only, drop inert --allow-stale, report every matching stage

Addresses the review findings on #3020, all of which are the same defect the PR
itself is about: group-sync surface that describes behaviour the pipeline does
not have.

`exactOnly` was inert in exactly the way `skipEmbeddings` was — declared on
`SyncOptions`, threaded through the CLI and the MCP tool, and read by nothing —
and strictly worse, because the stage it promised to suppress DOES run and DOES
write `matchType:'wildcard'` links into contracts.json and the bridge, which
`group impact` and cross-repo `trace` then traverse. It is now honoured rather
than deleted: unlike the never-built BM25/embedding stages, the stage it names
exists, so the flag describes a real choice. The substituted result is
`{ matched: [], remaining: unmatched }`, not an empty result — `wildcard.remaining`
IS `SyncResult.unmatched`, so skipping the stage has to leave its input unmatched
rather than dropping it from the count an operator reads.

`allowStale` had no such stage to gate: `syncGroup` emits no stale warning at any
point (the `checkStaleness` call lives in `groupStatus`, a different path), so it
is removed under the same rationale as `skipEmbeddings`.

`group sync` now prints every matching stage instead of `exact` alone. The old
block printed a `Matching cascade:` header and counted only exact links while the
next line reported `result.crossLinks.length` — which also includes `manifest` and
`wildcard` — so for any group with those the two numbers disagreed with nothing on
screen explaining why. Counting is an exhaustive `Record<MatchType, number>`, so a
new MatchType fails the build here instead of going silently uncounted, and reads
through `?? 0` so a legacy registry carrying a removed matchType prints an honest
count rather than `NaN`.

Also: the MCP `group_sync` description no longer omits the wildcard stage that
always runs, `exactOnly`'s description no longer refers to a "cascade", and
bench/cross-repo-trace/verify.mjs no longer generates the removed threshold keys
into a fresh group.yaml.

Tests: `sync-exact-only.test.ts` pins both directions of the gate (mutation-verified:
removing the gate, or returning `remaining: []`, both go red). `group-tools.test.ts`
pins that the MCP schema dropped `skipEmbeddings` and kept `exactOnly`.
`group-cli.test.ts` pins that both removed flags are rejected, with `--exact-only`
as an accepted-flag control. `config-parser.test.ts` now pins that legacy keys are
PRESERVED (measured, not assumed) rather than only that parsing does not throw.

The type narrowing's fallout in test files is cleared: `tsc -p tsconfig.test.json`
is 987 errors at head against 987 measured on origin/main, with the two error sets
identical — zero net, zero new, zero masked.

Verification: `tsc --noEmit` exit 0; prettier clean; eslint 0 errors (2 warnings,
both pre-existing on base); 69 test files / 1169 tests green across
test/unit/group, test/integration/group, tools, cli-i18n and cli-index-help.

* fix(group): reject malformed and retired group_sync parameters (U1)

`GroupService.groupSync` read `exactOnly` off an untyped MCP payload with
`Boolean(params.exactOnly)`. While the flag was inert that coercion was
harmless; now that it gates the wildcard matching stage, the string "false" --
a routine shape for an LLM caller emitting JSON -- is truthy, so a caller that
asked to KEEP wildcard matching got it suppressed and a registry with fewer
cross-links persisted to disk. The opposite of the request, written down.

Validate instead of coercing, at the service boundary: the MCP SDK does not
enforce a tool's advertised inputSchema and `callTool` is reachable directly,
so this method is the real gate. The validator mirrors `validateImpactMode`'s
`{ value } | { error }` shape -- the established idiom for this boundary, and
the one groupSync's other guards already return through.

Also refuse `skipEmbeddings` and `allowStale` by name. The CLI rejects them
outright because commander errors on an unknown option; the MCP path accepted
and silently dropped them, so an agent working from a cached tool schema was
never told. Removing them took away discoverability, not acceptance.

Both guards run before the group is read off disk, so a rejected call performs
no work. Every test asserts the sync did NOT run -- an error string alone
cannot distinguish "refused" from "refused but synced anyway".

The tool description gains the validation note AFTER the registryOutcome
paragraph: `tools.test.ts` slices that description by ordinal position of the
'preserved' / 'superseded' / 'no-prior-registry' literals, so appending past
all three leaves those slices intact (verified, 44/44).

tsc clean; 1039/1039 group unit tests pass.

* fix(group): record the matching stages a sync was told to skip (U2)

An `--exact-only` sync wrote a contracts.json and bridge with fewer cross-links
and nothing recorded that the wildcard stage had been suppressed by request.
`group_impact` and cross-repo `trace` read that registry as authoritative, so a
narrowed graph was indistinguishable from a complete one -- and because
`group_sync` is MCP-exposed, one agent call durably narrowed the shared answer
for every later reader with no signal at all.

Add `suppressedMatchStages` to ContractRegistry and SyncResult, following the
`unreadableRepos` tri-state end to end: absent means a registry written before
the field existed, `[]` is the measurement "this run suppressed nothing", and a
populated list names the stages. The writer always emits it, because omitting
the empty case is what made "measured, none" unreachable for `unreadableRepos`.

Two properties that are easy to get backwards, and are why the split matters:

- SyncResult carries the marker on EVERY outcome. The sync genuinely did skip
  the stage whatever happened to the file afterwards, and the CLI summary (U3)
  renders from this rather than re-deriving it from the caller's options.
- The PERSISTED registry stamps it only on the `written` outcome. The preserve
  path re-writes `{ ...prior }`, so a carried-forward registry keeps the marker
  of the sync that actually produced its contracts instead of being relabelled
  with this run's request. That holds by construction: the registry literal
  carrying the field is only reachable on the written path.

`loadContractRegistryResilient` gains an explicit line, because it rebuilds the
envelope field by field with no spread of the parsed root -- a new on-disk field
is silently dropped unless named there.

Its reader is `recordedMatchStages`, not the existing `recordedRepoList`: that
one validates `string[]`, which is right for repo names and one notch too weak
here. This repo has already retired MatchType members ('bm25', 'embedding'), so
a stale value on disk is a real shape, and dropping non-members keeps an unknown
stage name from reaching a caller typed as a live one.

Surfaced on `group_contracts` and on `group_sync`'s own return -- deliberately
kept separate from the truncated/truncationReason/riskEpistemic triple. That
triple reports limits a run hit by accident, whose remedy is to fix the repo; a
suppressed stage was asked for, and its remedy is to re-sync without the flag.
Conflating them would tell an agent to retry something that returns identically.

tsc clean; 1043/1043 group unit tests pass.

* fix(group): name a skipped matching stage as skipped, and pin it (U3, U4)

Two facts were printing as the same line. `wildcard: 0 cross-links` meant both
"the stage ran and matched nothing" and "the stage never ran because you passed
--exact-only" -- the same conflation this summary block was introduced to remove
one line up, reintroduced by the flag that made the block necessary.

Render a suppressed stage as `skipped (--exact-only)`, driven by the sync's own
`suppressedMatchStages` rather than by `opts.exactOnly`. The renderer reports
what the sync did, not what the caller asked for, so it stays correct on the
outcomes where the run ended without writing a registry -- which is where the
summary is least legible and a re-derivation from the options would have been
wrong.

Also drops the `?? 0` fallback and the comment justifying it. The comment
claimed a legacy registry could carry a retired matchType into this loop. It
cannot: `syncGroup` returns a freshly computed `crossLinks` array on every
outcome, and even on the preserve path the prior links go to disk while the
fresh array is returned. The code was harmless; the stated reason was false, and
a comment that explains an unreachable path is worse than no comment.

U4 pins both halves through the CLI. A manifest fixture is sufficient: the stage
counts must sum to the total on the `Wrote contracts.json (…)` line, and the
skipped rendering does not need a stage to have matched anything, because
--exact-only records the suppression whatever the fixture holds. That is why
this coverage did not need indexed gRPC/Thrift fixture repos.

Verified by mutation, not assertion: removing the skipped-rendering branch turns
`names a stage it was told to skip as skipped` red and leaves the other 22
green. A control case pins the opposite direction -- the same group without the
flag still reports the stage as zero -- so `skipped` cannot be printed
unconditionally and pass.

U3 and U4 land together: the test has no value without the renderer, so one
commit keeps a revert clean. Both depend on U2, which introduced the field they
read.

tsc clean; 1066/1066 across the group unit and CLI integration suites.

* fix(group): make every description of --exact-only match what it does (U5)

Two descriptions this branch wrote or touched still misstated behavior.

The MCP `exactOnly` description carries "Manifest links still apply." The CLI
help and both locale strings, rewritten in the same commit, omit it -- so the
surface most operators read understated what still runs. Manifest cross-links
are computed before the gate and are genuinely unaffected by the flag, so the
caveat is the accurate half and the CLI now says it too.

The `group_sync` tool description opened with "extract HTTP contracts". That
clause was carried forward byte-identical while only the trailing cross-linking
half was rewritten, and it is wrong: the detect config has six non-HTTP
extraction toggles, and this branch's own new test fixture is Thrift.

`help-i18n.ts` is deliberately untouched. It maps an option to its translation
key and that key already exists; only the commander string and the two locale
values carry text, so a text-only change does not reach it.

The tool-description edit sits ahead of the registryOutcome paragraph, leaving
the relative order of the 'preserved' / 'superseded' / 'no-prior-registry'
literals intact -- `tools.test.ts` slices that description by their positions.

tsc clean; 64/64 across the locale-parity, help-registration, tool-schema and
group-tool suites.

* fix(group)!: remove max_candidates_per_step and shared_libs (U6)

Both keys were declared, defaulted, written into every generated group.yaml,
and read by nothing -- the same three-station dead surface this PR removed for
bm25_threshold, embedding_threshold and detect.embedding_fallback. Every other
DetectConfig field gates a real extractor in sync.ts; shared_libs gates nothing,
because 'lib' contracts come only from the operator-declared manifest extractor.
MatchingConfig reaches matching.ts solely through buildNoisyContractFilter,
which reads exclude_links_paths and exclude_links_param_only_paths and nothing
else.

Existing group.yaml files keep loading and keep their keys. parseGroupConfig
spreads the raw block over its defaults, so a key the schema no longer knows
about survives into the returned config -- which matters because `group add` and
`group remove` round-trip the operator's file through loadGroupConfig ->
yaml.dump -> write, so anything the parser dropped would be deleted from their
checked-in file. The legacy-config test now pins both keys in the same cast form
as its three siblings, and the fixture carries shared_libs so that assertion is
not vacuous.

Two stations that are easy to miss and are swept here:

- gitnexus/bench/cross-repo-trace/verify.mjs GENERATES a fresh group.yaml. It is
  not a preserve-path fixture, so "leave YAML fixtures alone" does not cover it;
  the repo has two generators and both are updated. It is a .mjs file outside
  tsconfig's include, so no type gate would have caught it.
- config-parser.test.ts asserted the removed default at runtime, which vitest
  DOES run. That assertion is gone from the defaults case (the key no longer has
  a default) and re-formed as a preserve assertion in the legacy case.

Verification gate, corrected: "zero net new errors against origin/main" would
have measured the whole branch delta and been red through no fault of this
commit. Measured instead against the branch tip immediately before it --
tsc -p tsconfig.test.json --noEmit reports 989 before and 989 after. Twenty-four
typed-literal sites across ten test files, none of them CI-gated, plus the two
runtime sites above which are.

Note the deliberate side effect: removing a key from the defaults also stops the
group add round-trip from re-adding it to a file that never carried it. Nothing
in src reads either key, so no behavior changes.

BREAKING CHANGE: `matching.max_candidates_per_step` and `detect.shared_libs` are
no longer part of the group.yaml schema and are no longer written into generated
templates. Existing files carrying them continue to parse and retain them.

src tsc clean; 1189/1189 across the group unit, group integration, locale-parity,
help-registration and tool-schema suites.

* docs(group): map PR #3020 review findings to the commits that close them

Retitles the ledger to hold one section per reviewed PR and adds #3020's ten
findings. Two things are stated rather than claimed away: `abda0d041` closes
three findings because they are one code block plus the test that pins it, and
the suppressed-stage marker is a coupled set because the renderer consumes the
field the earlier commit introduces.

Also records what is NOT closed here -- the PR description's false claim about
`max_candidates_per_step` lives outside this branch.

* refactor(group): apply simplify-pass findings

Four cleanup agents (reuse, simplification, efficiency, altitude) over this
run's diff. Efficiency was clean. The rest found five things worth fixing, two
of which were real gaps rather than style.

`recordedMatchStages` filtered unknown values instead of rejecting the list.
That inverted the tri-state on the one field built to prevent exactly this
conflation: a stale `['bm25']` -- the scenario its own comment cites as the
motivation -- survived as `[]`, which on this field MEANS "measured, nothing was
suppressed". A confident clean answer manufactured from a value we could not
read. Now all-or-nothing, matching `recordedRepoList`.

`gitnexus group contracts` showed nothing after an exact-only sync. The human
renderer destructures a fixed field list and gates its incompleteness warning on
`truncated`, so the marker reached the MCP payload and the JSON output but not
the listing an operator actually reads. It now warns, separately from the
`truncated` warning, because the remedies differ: one says fix the repo, this
one says re-run without the flag.

`verbose` was still coerced with `Boolean()` in the same call whose tool
description this branch changed to promise "PARAMETERS ARE VALIDATED". Validated
now, and added to the tool schema -- it was read by the backend and advertised
nowhere.

Reuse: the thrift wildcard-matchable pair existed twice, near-verbatim, in
`sync-exact-only` and `registry-suppressed-stages`. Both now call a shared
`makeWildcardPair` fixture, so the shape `runWildcardMatch` fires on is defined
once.

Simplification: dropped a `Set` built per sync over a list that only ever holds
zero or one entries; iterating `Object.keys(STAGE_COUNTS) as MatchType[]` also
keeps the exhaustiveness the `Record` was built for, which `Object.entries` had
discarded.

Deliberately not done, with reasons: a schema-driven unknown-parameter layer at
the MCP chokepoint (five parameters are read by backends and declared in no
schema, so a strict layer rejects working calls today, and it cannot produce the
"was removed" message finding 3 is about); folding the marker into
`GROUP_IMPACT_TRUNCATION_REASONS` (reverses a recorded plan decision and the
bridge scope is an open question for the maintainer); a per-stage suppression
cause `Record` (no second suppressor exists -- speculative); collapsing the six
`detect` extractor branches into a table (a real generalization, but a refactor
outside this diff); and converging an untouched pre-existing CLI test onto the
new manifest helper (it captures a value the helper does not return, so the
change risks more than the duplication costs).

tsc clean; eslint 0 errors (1 pre-existing warning); 1085/1085.

* docs(group): remove REVIEW-FINDINGS-MAP.md

Removes the findings-to-commits ledger from the source tree.

Note for anyone reading this in history: the file was introduced on main by
#3012 and carried that PR's findings map; this branch had appended a #3020
section. Deleting it drops both. #3012's content is recoverable with
`git show 2c0fb7753:gitnexus/src/core/group/REVIEW-FINDINGS-MAP.md`.

* fix(group): stop cross-repo impact and trace claiming a narrowed graph is complete

Closes the half of the suppressed-stage finding that was deferred. The reviewers
were right that deferring it was the weak point: the motivating harm was named
as `group_impact` and cross-repo `trace` traversing a graph missing real edges,
and those were exactly the surfaces left uncovered.

The deferral rested on an assumption that does not hold. "It is already blind to
this, so we do not make it worse" is false: `--exact-only` was inert before this
PR, so the number of narrowed registries in the world goes from zero to nonzero
exactly when this lands. The blindness was harmless only while narrowing was
impossible. And silence there is not neutral -- `cross-impact.ts` documents
`truncated: false` as an affirmative completeness claim, so those tools were
about to start asserting a complete answer over a knowingly short graph.

`suppressedMatchStages` now rides the bridge the same way `unreadableRepos`
does: persisted in meta.json (no BRIDGE_SCHEMA_VERSION bump -- meta fields have
this precedent), read back all-or-nothing, and carried across the preserve path
through `refreshPreservedBridgeMeta`'s diagnostics so a preserved bridge keeps
the marker of the sync that actually built it.

`crossRepoCompleteness` folds it in, which is what makes this one change reach
all three surfaces -- that function is by design the ONE computation behind the
truncation triple. Precedence is explicit: an unreadable or unaccounted repo
outranks a suppressed stage, because it is the more serious structural gap and
its remedy has to be the one reported.

`'suppressed-stage'` is a new member of the truncation-reason union rather than
a reuse of `'incomplete-sync'`. The earlier decision not to touch that union was
about not conflating remedies -- telling an agent to repair a repo that read
fine, for a narrowing it requested. A distinct member preserves that reasoning
while letting the answer stop claiming completeness, which is what reusing the
existing member would have destroyed.

The union's guard test did its job: adding a member failed the check that every
reason is explained on the agent-facing surface, so the impact tool description
now names this one and its distinct remedy (re-run WITHOUT the flag; nothing
failed to read).

`group status` and its CLI renderer surface it too, on the populated case only
-- absent is a registry predating the field and empty is the ordinary clean
sync; neither earns a line.

Deliberately still not done, and why: a repo-wide unknown-parameter layer for
every MCP tool. Five parameters are read by backends and declared in no schema
(`subgroupExact`, `unmatchedOnly`, `showClusters`, `showProcesses`, and
`verbose` until this branch declared it), and three tools dispatch with no
schema entry at all, so a strict layer rejects working calls until each is
reconciled. That reconciliation is the work; the layer is the cheap part. It
also cannot produce the "was removed and is no longer accepted" message the
retired-parameter guard exists to give.

tsc clean; eslint 0 errors (2 pre-existing warnings); 1159/1159 across the group
unit, group integration and tool-schema suites.

* fix(group): make the suppressed-stage signal actually reach its readers

Applies the mechanical findings from the code review of the previous commit.
That commit claimed cross-repo impact and trace stop reporting a narrowed graph
as complete. Trace did; impact did not, and two operator-facing messages said
something false. Four reviewers plus the cross-model pass converged on the same
two defects, and the untested seams were exactly where they were.

`runGroupImpact` recomputed the truncation reason and hardcoded its fallback, so
it could never emit 'suppressed-stage' -- the value the previous commit added to
the union and documented in the tool description. Every narrowed-but-readable
bridge was reported as 'incomplete-sync', telling the caller to repair a repo
that read fine. It now propagates the bridge's own reason, as cross-trace.ts
already did.

The preserve path stamped this run's request onto an older bridge. When no repo
can be read the database and registry are kept from an earlier sync, so
meta.json has to keep describing that sync; instead `{ ...existing,
...diagnostics }` overwrote its marker, leaving contracts.json, meta.json and
bridge.lbug describing three different runs. Currently masked by unreadable-repo
precedence, one loosened condition from a live wrong verdict.

`group contracts` printed "the last sync did not record which repos it could
read" after any exact-only sync: truncated was set with both repo lists empty,
so the message fell through to the wrong branch. It is now gated on the reason,
not the flag. `group impact` likewise blamed the local walk for a floor the flag
caused.

The tri-state reader is now defined once, in the leaf module whose own comment
says it exists so this exact duplication cannot recur -- it had been copied into
bridge-db.ts within one commit of that comment being true.

Both agent-facing descriptions now name the field. The previous commit added it
to three payloads and documented it on none.

Tests cover what shipped green: the preserve path for both artifacts (verified
by mutation -- reintroducing the stamp turns exactly one test red), and the
reason's REACHABILITY. The existing guard only asserted each reason is
described, which is why a documented-but-unemittable value passed it.

Also corrects a comment that said the marker is deliberately not folded into the
truncation triple. True when written; false one commit later.

tsc clean; eslint 0 errors; 1163/1163 across the group unit, group integration
and tool-schema suites.

* fix(group): drop verbose from the MCP surface, fail a superseded bridge closed

Two maintainer-directed findings from the review.

verbose is removed from the group_sync MCP schema and from GroupService, and
kept on the CLI. The parameter never did what either description claimed: the
gates emit workspace-dependency discovery stats and one aggregate manifest line,
not "each cross-link". Worse, they emit them through the server's logger, which
an MCP caller cannot read at all -- so advertising it introduced precisely the
kind of knob this PR exists to delete, in the PR that deletes them. SyncOptions
keeps the field and the CLI keeps --verbose, because a CLI user really can see
that output; its help now says "Show additional sync diagnostics", which is
what it shows. It was added to the MCP schema earlier in this same PR, so there
is no published compatibility burden in taking it back out. A caller that still
sends it is ignored rather than refused: it was never a documented parameter,
and the retired-name guard is reserved for ones this tool actually withdrew.

The second fixes a split-brain the completeness work made materially worse. When
contracts.json commits and the bridge write then fails, the previous database
stays in place describing an EARLIER sync. Until now it kept vouching for
itself, so group_impact could traverse the superseded graph and call its answer
complete while group_contracts reported the advanced registry -- two public
surfaces making contradictory epistemic claims out of one sync. That was
tolerable when the disagreement was about counts. It is not, now that
suppressed-stage makes completeness a correctness property.

markBridgeProvenanceUnknown withdraws the claim without touching the database:
bridgeMetaMatchesFile already gives provenanceUnknown highest precedence and
refuses to vouch for the pair, so cross-repo answers downgrade to a floor until
a sync succeeds. Deliberately not a re-stamp -- the metadata still describes the
database it was written for, and saying otherwise recreates the mis-pairing the
preserve path avoids. Deliberately not a delete -- the old graph is still worth
having as a floor, it just stops being called complete. Best-effort, because it
runs inside a failure handler and must not replace a reported bridge failure
with an unrelated one; the warning now states which of the two happened.

Shared registry+bridge generation identity is the architectural fix and is
deliberately NOT attempted here. This is the PR-sized containment.

Verified by mutation, both directions: neutering the withdrawal turns the new
test red, and a control pins that a healthy sync does not withdraw provenance --
otherwise every successful run would report its own answers as a floor.

tsc clean; eslint 0 errors; 1185/1185.

* refactor(group): apply simplify-pass findings

Four cleanup agents over the last five commits. Efficiency was clean and traced
why: the containment helper is failure-path only, the reason ternary sits after
the fan-out loop, and the tri-state readers run once per artifact read.

The strongest finding was one the diff itself proved. `refreshPreservedBridgeMeta`
enforced the never-persisted rule for `repoListsUnreadable` and
`pairedWithDatabase` with two deletes in its own body, under a comment noting it
was the only code that read metadata and wrote it back. That held exactly as
long as there was one such caller. `markBridgeProvenanceUnknown` made it two,
and inherited nothing. The strip now lives in `writeBridgeMeta`, so every writer
gets it and no future one can forget; `pairedWithDatabase` is the dangerous one,
because persisted it tells every later reader the pair was verified when nothing
verified it.

`group impact` still printed "fan-out stopped early" whenever `truncatedRepos`
was non-empty — but the bridge's incomplete repos are unioned into that list
even when zero crossings were attempted, so a structural gap was reported as a
runtime one, with the only working remedy omitted. That is the same false-cause
shape the contract listing was re-gated for one commit ago, left live one
command over because the new reason was bolted in front of the old branch rather
than replacing the thing it branched on. Now keyed on the reason.

The `?? 'incomplete-sync'` arm in cross-impact was unreachable: reaching it
needs `truncated` true with all three of its inputs false, which
`truncated = runtimeTruncated || bridge.truncated` forbids. Flattened.

Also: a `recordedMatchStages` insert had split `crossRepoCompleteness` from its
own JSDoc; one new test was a strict subset of another; and the bridge-failure
warning interleaved concatenation with a mid-chain ternary.

The new invariant assertion was caught being VACUOUS by mutation before it
shipped — seeded with a valid repo list, `readBridgeMeta` never sets the
reader-only field, so it passed with or without the strip. The fixture now seeds
an unreadable list, and both it and the pre-existing assertion go red when the
strip is removed.

Deliberately skipped, with reasons: a shared `firstTruncated` fold over
`TruncationFields` (the right altitude, but it changes cross-trace's return
assembly and that surface separately documents a 'timeout' rung it cannot emit —
a behavior change, not a cleanup); a reason-keyed `explainFloor` helper across
all four CLI renderers (real, but a four-site refactor); narrowing the persisted
stage vocabulary to a `SuppressibleStage` alias (would be undone by the very
extension the field was modelled as a list to allow); moving `verbose` to
`logger.debug` and deleting `SyncOptions.verbose` (the maintainer explicitly
directed keeping both); and merging the two tri-state readers behind a predicate
(they are adjacent in one file now, so a tightening applies to both by
inspection — the duplication the comment warned about was cross-FILE).

tsc clean; eslint 0 errors; 1164/1164.

* fix(group): address gitnexus-check findings

Seven bot comments across two review rounds; five distinct after dedup. Four
were valid and are fixed, two were already resolved by later commits the bot
had not seen.

The validator could throw from its own error path. `JSON.stringify` is the right
renderer there — it is what distinguishes the string "false" from the boolean,
which is the entire point of the message — but it throws on a BigInt and on a
cyclic object. So a validator promising a structured `{ error }` instead
rejected, and `callTool` is reachable directly, so neither input is
hypothetical. Guarded, keeping the distinction and falling back for the shapes
that cannot serialize.

An unreadable suppression record read as "nothing was suppressed".
`recordedMatchStages` is all-or-nothing by design, so garbage collapses to
`undefined` — and the consumer treated `undefined` as an empty measurement,
throwing that safety away and reporting a registry it could not parse as
complete. Present-but-unreadable now forces the floor, while absent stays
legitimate: a registry written before the field existed has no opinion and
should not be dragged to a floor for it.

Two test-side findings, both real and both invisible to CI because
`tsconfig.json` is src-only. Three `mock.calls[0][1]` accesses did not
type-check against a zero-arg mock, and four assertions read `truncationReason`
/ `riskEpistemic` straight off `CrossRepoCompleteness`, which is a discriminated
union carrying them on one arm. Also removed a `StoredContract` import that went
dead when those fixtures moved to `makeWildcardPair`.

Worth recording: U6 set a test-config gate at 989 errors and later commits
walked it to 994 without anyone re-measuring — the bot caught three of the five.
Now 987, below the original baseline.

Already fixed, not by this commit: the preserve-path stamp the bot flagged
against 6ceac8b1f (fixed in 1fbe0dc6b) and the displaced completeness JSDoc
(fixed in 2d2ef8c47).

Both behavior fixes are mutation-verified: restoring the unguarded stringify
turns the new unserializable-value test red, and a control pins that an absent
record still reads as complete so the fails-closed change cannot pass by forcing
every registry to a floor.

fix(group): stop reporting what could not be measured as a measurement of zero (#3012)
* fix: surface unreadable group indexes and escape raw NUL bytes in source

Two independent diagnostics failures, both of which turn a real error into a
confident, benign-looking answer.

**Unreadable member repos (#3011).** `syncGroup` wrapped `initLbug` plus all
contract extraction for each member in a bare `catch {}` that pushed the repo
onto `missingRepos` and discarded the error. A LadybugDB storage-version
mismatch therefore surfaced as "repo not found", `group sync` printed
`0 contracts, 0 cross-links` and exited 0, and the existing contracts.json was
overwritten with an empty registry. The two states need different answers from
the operator — a missing repo must be indexed, an unreadable one is usually
version skew or a lock — so they are now separate:

- the caught error is logged with the repo, group path and lbug path
- `unreadableRepos` is tracked alongside `missingRepos` on `SyncResult`,
  persisted (optionally, so older registries still parse) on `ContractRegistry`,
  and threaded through `GroupService` sync/status
- `group sync` reports both before the cascade counts, since an unread repo is
  the likely explanation for a small or empty count
- `group status` reports unreadable repos separately; calling them "missing"
  actively misdescribed them
- when EVERY configured repo fails to open, the write is skipped: an extraction
  that read nothing is not evidence the group has no contracts, and replacing a
  good registry with an empty one loses data while reporting success

**Raw NUL bytes (#3010).** `sync.ts` and `free-call-fallback.ts` each used a NUL
as a join delimiter, written as a literal 0x00 instead of `\0`. Identical at
runtime, but it makes the file test as binary: `file(1)` reports `data`, ugrep
returns empty with exit 1 — indistinguishable from "no match", with no message —
and BSD grep replaces matching lines with "Binary file ... matches". A search
that should hit comes back as a confident "not present". Both now use the escape,
and a unit test fails on any raw control byte in src/ so it cannot silently
return.

* test(hygiene): guard every tracked source file against a raw NUL, not just src/

The guard added with the NUL escapes only scanned gitnexus/src for .ts/.tsx.
Neither prior recurrence of this defect in this repo was in that scope:
b620773b1 was gitnexus/bench/cpp-qualified-ns/measure.mjs and 38d737bb5 was a
fixture under gitnexus/test. A guard that cannot see where the bug has actually
landed twice is not a guard.

Drive the file list from `git ls-files` at the repository root over
.ts/.tsx/.js/.jsx/.mjs/.cjs/.mts/.cts — 2483 files instead of 828 — and split
the byte class, which is the part that matters:

  - 0x00 is a hard failure repo-wide. It is the byte git's binary heuristic
    keys on, so it is the one that costs a file its diff (and, on the base side
    of a PR, its inline-comment anchors and its three-way merge).
  - The wider C0 class stays scoped to gitnexus/src. A repo-wide scan finds
    exactly one hit, test/unit/logger.test.ts:146, and that 0x1b is a
    legitimate ANSI-escape fixture that is the subject of the test. Widening
    this half would go red on day one.

Read Buffers and scan bytes instead of decoding each file to latin1, through a
bounded read pool: 1.5 s for 2483 files, against 8-21 s previously for 828.

Add a negative fixture — a planted 0x00 and 0x1b run through the same scanning
helper — so a future refactor of the collector cannot leave a permanently green
guard, plus an assertion that the collected set still reaches bench/, test/ and
.mjs, which goes red if the scope is ever narrowed back.

* fix(group): report a cross-repo impact built from an incomplete bridge as truncated

When a sync cannot read a member repo, that repo's contracts and every
cross-link touching them are simply absent from bridge.lbug. Nothing in the
impact walk could notice: the only incompleteness channel on a
GroupImpactResult is truncationFields(), which is driven by fan-out state
(truncatedRepos / localPartial / fanoutTimedOut), and a repo missing from the
bridge sets none of them.

So `group impact` on a symbol whose one downstream consumer lives in an
unreadable repo returned `{ cross: [], truncated: false }` — "complete: nothing
in another repo depends on this". That is a wrong answer, not an empty one, for
a tool an agent uses to license a delete or a rename.

BridgeMeta now records unreadableRepos alongside missingRepos, writeBridge
persists it when non-empty, and runGroupImpact folds a non-empty
unreadableRepos ∪ missingRepos into truncated / riskEpistemic: 'lower-bound',
naming the repos in truncatedRepos.

The reason is a new 'incomplete-sync' rather than the existing 'partial'
because the remedy differs: 'timeout' and 'partial' are runtime limits the same
query can clear on a retry, while this one clears only when `gitnexus group
sync` succeeds. Runtime limits still take precedence when both apply, since
those are what the caller can act on immediately.

The risk VALUE is never clamped down — mergeRisk is monotone in the traversed
crossing count, so an incomplete bridge can only under-report. Marking the floor
is what makes that legible.

Both shape changes are additive and optional, so a bridge written before this
still reads.

* fix(group): say truthfully what a sync did to contracts.json

Review follow-ups to the unreadable-repo diagnostics. Every item below is a
place where the code still answered a question it could not answer.

1. The CLI announced a write it did not perform. `group sync` printed "Wrote
   contracts.json (0 contracts, 0 cross-links)" unconditionally, including on
   the path that deliberately left the file alone. SyncResult now carries
   registryOutcome ('written' | 'preserved' | 'not-attempted'), the CLI prints
   from it, and group_sync returns it so an agent that calls group_sync then
   group_contracts can tell why the counts disagree.

2. Refusing to write anything on total failure threw away the diagnostic
   describing the run that just happened. `group status` reads contracts.json
   from disk, so the operator who saw the sync fail and ran status to find out
   why read the PREVIOUS sync's file: no unreadable list, an old lastSync, a
   healthy-looking group — or worse, the previous run's unreadable list
   presented as this one's. The skip is now targeted: contracts, crossLinks,
   repoSnapshots and generatedAt carry forward verbatim, only missingRepos and
   unreadableRepos are refreshed. generatedAt stays put because it dates the
   contracts, which are still the previous run's. With no prior file, or an
   unparseable one, nothing is written at all.

3. Per-repo extraction is now all-or-nothing. Extractors run in sequence and
   any one can throw; appending each one's results straight to autoContracts
   meant a repo whose HTTP extractor succeeded and whose gRPC extractor then
   failed contributed a partial set to the registry, while the same run told
   the operator that repo's "contracts are omitted from this sync".

4. readRegistry gains an opt-in strict mode, and syncGroup uses it. The lenient
   `catch { return []; }` converted "I could not read the registry" into "no
   repo is registered": every configured repo then resolved to MISSING, the
   total-failure guard stayed off (it needs a load error), and a good
   contracts.json was replaced by an empty one at exit 0. That is an unreadable
   condition reported as missing, one frame above the code this branch fixes.
   The default stays lenient for the other nine callers; ENOENT stays lenient
   in both modes.

5. Absence of unreadableRepos keeps meaning "not recorded". The loader spreads
   the key in only when present instead of defaulting to [], and getStatus
   passes undefined through, so a legacy registry no longer reads as "the last
   sync found none unreadable". getStatus also gates both list fields on
   Array.isArray: it reads through readContractRegistry, which is a bare
   JSON.parse cast, so a corrupt string in either slot used to reach
   cli/group.ts and die in .join(', ') — the command whose job is explaining an
   unreadable thing, crashing on one.

6. Smaller, same theme: the per-repo warning passes the Error itself rather
   than err.message, so pino keeps the stack; the total-failure warning no
   longer fires on a dry run, where it described a file the call was never
   going to touch and which need not exist; the status table's MISSING legend
   stops re-conflating the two states; the sync warning drops its
   GITNEXUS_LOG_LEVEL=warn hint, which would only have suppressed output (pino
   emits warn at the default info level, so the reason was already printed);
   and the group_sync tool description and its idempotency comment now describe
   what the tool actually does.

Testing. The original four cases could not see the change they were named
after. Mutation testing showed two survivors: dropping the ===
configuredRepoCount conjunct, which turns "every repo failed" into "any repo
failed" and would silently freeze contracts.json for a group where one of five
repos is skewed; and deleting both logger.warn calls, the stated purpose of the
change. Both survived because every case configured exactly one repo and
nothing read the log. There is now a two-repo case running the real per-repo
loop, an all-missing case, a _captureLogger assertion on the level 40 record,
partial-extraction cases, and strict-read cases. All five mutants are killed,
each by exactly one test.

* fix(group): tighten the registry list gates and stop naming a truncation reason on complete results

Three follow-ups from the check bot's pass over the previous commits.

1. `detect.includes` was missing from both group-sync test fixtures, so they did
   not satisfy the `GroupConfig` they claim to construct. It went unnoticed
   because `tsconfig.json` is src-only; `tsconfig.test.json` reports it. The
   older of the two fixtures carried the gap in from the original commit.

2. `runGroupImpact` named its truncation reason in a variable computed before
   the truncated check, so on a fully complete result the variable read
   'incomplete-sync'. `truncationFields` discards the reason when `truncated` is
   false, so nothing surfaced — but a value that is wrong whenever it is unused
   is a trap for the next reader. Computed inline at the one call site that can
   consult it, which is also how the neighbouring call sites are written.

3. `Array.isArray` alone let a corrupt registry through. `['app/backend']` and
   `[{repo:'x'}]` are both arrays, and only the second reaches `cli/group.ts`'s
   `.join(', ')` — as `[object Object]`, a measurement the operator can read but
   cannot act on. Both readers now go through one `recordedRepoList` helper that
   requires an array of strings; anything else is "not recorded", the same as
   absent. Two more rows in the corrupt-value table cover it.

* fix(group): keep readRegistry's signature, and stop describing unreadableRepos as index-only

Two items from the check bot's blocking pass.

1. `readRegistry` gained an optional `opts` parameter last commit. That is
   source-compatible — every zero-argument call still compiles and behaves
   identically — but the contract check treats any parameter-list change on a
   symbol with outside callers as a break, and it is right that the safest
   version of this change touches that signature not at all. The strict read is
   now its own export, `readRegistryStrict()`, over a shared private body.
   `readRegistry()` is byte-identical to what it was; `syncGroup` is the only
   caller of the strict one, and the mode is legible at the call site instead of
   hiding in an options bag.

2. `unreadableRepos` is described everywhere as "the index could not be opened".
   That was accurate before this branch and is not now: making per-repo
   extraction all-or-nothing means a repo also lands there when an extractor
   throws partway with the index open fine. The two belong in one bucket
   because the consequence is one thing — none of that repo's contracts are in
   this sync — but the docs have to say so, or an operator reads `unreadableRepos`
   as a storage diagnosis and goes looking at LadybugDB for an extractor bug.
   Corrected on `ContractRegistry`, `BridgeMeta`, `SyncResult`, the `group_sync`
   tool description, and the `group sync` console output, which now says
   "Could not extract contracts from" rather than "Could not read the index for".

* fix(cli): stop calling an unreadable registry an old one in group status

`getStatus` reports `unreadableRepos` as `undefined` for two different reasons:
the field is genuinely absent, or it held something that was not a list of repo
paths and the shape gate declined to guess. The status line named only the
first — "registry predates this field" — so a corrupt value read as a merely
old registry.

That is the same shape of wrong answer this command exists to stop giving: a
condition we could not read, presented as a benign one we understand. The line
now names both, and asks for a sync either way, which is the fix in both cases.

* fix(group): close the three fail-open paths left on the safety boundaries

Follow-ups from the re-review of 31c2b6e81. All three of its blocking findings
reproduce; each is a place where unknown state still resolved to a confident
benign answer, which is the one thing this branch exists to stop.

1. Strict registry reading accepted malformed rows. `[{}]` is a JSON array, so
   it passed the shape check: every configured repo then failed to resolve into
   `missingRepos`, none produced a load ERROR, the total-failure guard stayed
   off, and a good contracts.json was replaced with an empty one at exit 0 —
   the same fail-open the strict mode was added to close, one level down from
   the file to the rows inside it. Strict mode now requires `name`, `path` and
   `storagePath` on every row and rejects the WHOLE registry if any row fails.
   Rejecting rather than filtering is the point: dropping bad rows would report
   the repos they name as unregistered, which is the same wrong answer again.
   `indexedAt` / `lastCommit` are deliberately not required — callers already
   default them, so demanding them would trade a fail-open for a fail-shut on a
   legitimate legacy registry.

2. A failed bridge publication could make impact look complete. `writeBridge`
   swaps `bridge.lbug` and writes `meta.json` as two operations, and this branch
   made that meta load-bearing: `runGroupImpact` derives its truncation fields
   from it. A sync interrupted between the two steps therefore left a NEW bridge
   beside the PREVIOUS sync's metadata, and an impact query read that as
   "complete". Fixed from both ends. The write path removes the old meta before
   the swap, so the window leaves metadata ABSENT rather than stale. The read
   path treats absent-or-unparseable meta (`version: 0`) as unknown provenance
   and reports a floor, which also covers the caught `writeBridge` failure in
   `syncGroup`. Over-reporting truncation on a bridge that is actually fine is
   the safe direction, and the next successful sync clears it.

3. `preserved` was returned when there was nothing to preserve. On a group's
   first all-unreadable sync the outcome was set before the prior registry was
   read, so the CLI told an operator "the contracts from the previous sync are
   preserved" about a file that had never existed. Split out as
   `no-prior-registry`, with its own console message.

Also widened the NUL guard to the source languages it claimed to cover. The
commit that added it said "every tracked source file" while the collector
stopped at the JS/TS family, so a raw NUL in tracked Python, Java, Go, Rust,
C/C++, Ruby, PHP, Kotlin, Swift, C# or shell would still have turned those files
binary unnoticed. Measured before widening: 2315 non-JS tracked source files,
zero hits, so this was an unforced gap rather than a tradeoff. A planted `.py`
fixture and a collector-coverage assertion keep it honest.

Every fix is mutation-verified: reverting each one individually turns its own
tests red (3, 2, 2, 1 and 1 failures respectively), and all pass together.

* fix(group): record the empty unreadable measurement instead of dropping it

Both writers omitted `unreadableRepos` when it was empty, which made the
tri-state this branch introduced unreachable in its most common case.

`ContractRegistry.unreadableRepos` is optional on the TYPE so a registry written
before the field existed still parses, and absence there means "not recorded".
But a sync that read every repo successfully HAS measured it, and `[]` is that
measurement. Dropping it collapsed "measured, none" into "never recorded", so
after every clean sync `gitnexus group status` printed

    Last sync unreadable repos: not recorded
    (the registry predates this field, or its value could not be read)
    Re-run `gitnexus group sync` to record it.

about the sync that had just succeeded. The distinction is only worth having if
the writer commits to it, so both `contracts.json` and the bridge's `meta.json`
now record the field whenever the sync supplied it, `[]` included.

The check bot found this on the bridge writer and attributed the consequence to
`group status`. The consequence is real but it is not the bridge's: `getStatus`
reads `contracts.json` and never touches `BridgeMeta`, whose only consumer is
`runGroupImpact` — where absent and empty are already equivalent. So the
user-visible half was in the registry writer, one file over from where it was
reported, and both are fixed.

Also fills in `DetectConfig.includes` (and `workspace_deps`) across the group
test fixtures that predate those fields. These are pre-existing on main and are
a no-op at runtime — `undefined` and `false` are both falsy at the gate — but
they are the same defect the bot flagged as an error in the new fixtures, and
`tsconfig.test.json` reported eleven of them. That file is not in CI, which is
why they survived; the group tree is now clean of them.

* test(group): stop two bridge-metadata tests claiming coverage they do not have

Both were named for the swap window and neither injects a swap failure.

"drops the previous meta.json before swapping the database file" runs two
successful writeBridge calls. Its assertions hold with the removal in either
position, because writeBridge overwrites meta.json at the end regardless — so
it cannot pin the ordering it is named for. Renamed to what it does cover, the
successful-rebuild replacement, with the limit stated in the body rather than
left for the next reader to discover.

"leaves NO meta.json when the swap fails partway" removes the file by hand
after a successful write, so it exercises readBridgeMeta's missing-file
contract, not writeBridge. That contract is worth pinning on its own — version 0
is the signal runGroupImpact fails closed on — so the test stays, under a name
that says so.

The ordering itself is pinned in bridge-meta-swap-window.test.ts, which mocks
retryRename to throw on the bridge.lbug swap and asserts the previous sync's
metadata cannot survive it. Both renamed tests now point there, so the coverage
is findable from the place someone would look for it.

No production code changes.

* fix(group): pair bridge metadata to its database instead of deleting it

The previous commit closed the swap/metadata window by removing meta.json before
the database swap, so the window would fail to "absent" rather than "stale". That
was the wrong trade, and it destroyed recoverable state.

The old database's move to `.bak` sits inside a catch that swallows failures, not
just "no existing db". When that rename fails — a held read-only handle does this
on Windows, and a long-lived MCP server holds one — the failure is swallowed, the
following `tmp -> bridge.lbug` throws, and writeBridge exits with the OLD database
still in place and perfectly valid. Its metadata was already deleted. Cross-repo
impact then answers "we cannot say" for that group until some future sync
succeeds, and if the cause is a held handle or permissions there is no such sync.
A working feature, destroyed permanently to close a narrow window.

Deleting also only chose which way the window failed; it never closed it.

So destroy nothing, and make the pair self-describing instead: writeBridge stamps
the database's size and mtime into the metadata it writes, and
`bridgeMetaMatchesFile` lets a reader ask whether the two still belong together.
`runGroupImpact` treats a mismatch the same as absent metadata — provenance
unknown, report a floor. A metadata file left over from an earlier sync cannot
match a freshly renamed database, and a sync that fails before the swap leaves a
matching pair untouched. Metadata written before the stamp existed is
unverifiable rather than stale, and is accepted: failing those closed would mark
every pre-existing bridge incomplete, trading a narrow window for a repo-wide
regression.

The swap-window test now distinguishes the two failure shapes, because they want
different answers. When every rename fails the old database never moves, so the
surviving metadata still matches it and impact keeps answering from it. When only
the final rename fails the old database has already reached `.bak` and no
database is in place, so the metadata correctly matches nothing — and
`ensureBridgeReady` fails loudly on the absent file, which beats a silent floor.

Mutation-verified: reinstating the delete, neutering the pairing check, and
dropping the stamp each turn 2, 3 and 3 tests red respectively.

* chore: keep TypeScript diffs readable after a NUL leaves the tree

Git decides a pair is binary when EITHER blob carries a NUL, and it only
sniffs the first 8000 bytes. `gitnexus/src/core/group/sync.ts` carried one
at byte 5132 on main. This branch removes it, but the base side still has
it, so the file renders as "Binary files differ" in the pull request: no
hunks, no inline comments, and no three-way merge — however clean the head
side is. A head-side byte guard cannot detect that, by construction, since
it only ever sees the working tree.

Setting the `diff` attribute stops the heuristic from hiding the change.
It does not mark the files binary, does not imply `text`, and does not
change how blobs are stored, normalized, or checked out — the root
`* text=auto eol=lf` still governs all of that. It affects diff generation
and rendering only.

Locally this turns the branch's own sync.ts diff from `Bin 17612 -> 25346
bytes` into 154 insertions and 16 deletions.

* fix(group): answer "provenance unknown" for malformed bridge metadata

`readBridgeMeta` guarded the read and the parse but not the SHAPE of what it
parsed, then cast the result. `runGroupImpact` spread both repo lists straight
into a Set, so a `meta.json` whose `missingRepos` held an object threw a
TypeError out of the entire cross-repo query — and threw it from a point after
`ensureBridgeReady` had taken the bridge lease and before the `try` whose
`finally` releases it, so every such query also leaked a refcount the cached
handle could never get back. A malformed file is a reason to answer "we cannot
say", never a reason to crash the question.

The shape gate now lives where the metadata is read, mirroring the one
`service.ts` already applies to the registry's copies of these same two lists.
Each list is judged independently: a garbage `unreadableRepos` no longer
discards a `missingRepos` that was genuinely measured. A list that was present
but unusable is dropped rather than normalized to `[]`, because an unreadable
value is not a measurement of zero — the new reader-side `repoListsUnreadable`
carries that distinction, and `runGroupImpact` folds it into the same
provenance-unknown verdict it already reaches for `version: 0` and for
metadata that does not pair with the database beside it.

A root that is not an object is closed too. `JSON.parse` succeeds on `null`,
`7` and `[]`; the first threw on `.version`, and the other two read `undefined`
and sailed through the version gate as if the bridge had been vouched for.

Both provenance values moved inside the protected region and are initialized
fail-closed, so a future throw between the lease and the walk releases rather
than wedges.

`repoListsUnreadable` is reader-side only: the sole `writeBridgeMeta` call site
builds a fresh literal, so nothing persists it and no schema version moves.

Mutation-verified: reverting the shape gate alone turns 4 tests red — the three
malformed-list scenarios plus the handle-release regression.

* fix(storage): reject registry rows that cannot identify a repo

The strict read's row gate gave `typeof v === 'string'`, and `typeof '' ===
'string'`. A row whose `name` was blank therefore passed as resolvable, then
matched nothing in `defaultResolveHandle` — putting every configured repo in
`missingRepos` and presenting an unusable registry as a clean answer about an
empty one. That is the same unreadable-as-missing fail-open the strict mode
exists to close, one level further in. A blank `storagePath` is worse than
useless: it joins to a relative `lbug` under the current directory, so the sync
opens an index that is not the repo's.

Both now have to be non-blank after trimming. `path` stays at the bare string
check, on the same reasoning that already exempts `indexedAt`/`lastCommit`:
require only what resolution depends on to IDENTIFY the repo. This gate rejects
the whole registry and the registry is machine-wide, so a field tightened past
what identification needs would let one blank value in one row break every
group sync on the machine — including groups whose repos all resolve. A blank
`path` still yields a working handle; `defaultResolveHandle` does read it, but
only for the pool id and `repoPath`, neither of which decides whether the row
names a repo.

The error now says what is actually wrong instead of naming three fields that
are all present.

Mutation-verified in both directions: dropping the trim turns the three
rejection tests red, and applying the wider fix that was considered and
declined — tightening `path` too — turns exactly the counter-case red, so that
test genuinely pins the narrow reading rather than passing either way.

* fix(group): bound the per-repo contract staging append

`autoContracts.push(...repoContracts)` passes every staged contract as a
separate argument, and the engine caps how many arguments one call may take.
That cap is a function of the host's available stack, so it is a different
number on every machine — this one accepts a 125k-element spread and dies at
150k.

The spread itself is not new; what it carries is. Before staging, this line
appended a single extractor's output as it came back. Staging made it carry the
whole repo's, which is enough for a large repo to raise `RangeError: Maximum
call stack size exceeded` on the one line whose job is to commit work that just
succeeded. The throw lands in the catch below, so the sync reports a repo whose
extractors all ran cleanly as one whose index could not be read — a crash
wearing the costume of a diagnostic.

A bounded loop replaces it: the count a repo can stage is now bounded by memory
rather than by how much stack the process happened to get.

The guard is structural, not size-based, and deliberately so. A "make the
fixture big enough to crash" test passes against unfixed code on any host with
a larger stack, which is exactly the guarantee a regression gate cannot give
up. It walks the AST and locates the region by role — the `const` staging
buffer typed `StoredContract[]`, then the extractor `try` that is a direct
statement of the block declaring it — so renaming either identifier keeps it
pointed at the same code. `.apply()` is rejected alongside spread, being the
same hazard in different syntax.

Direct statements only, because `syncGroup` wraps this whole section in its own
try/finally for the lease sweep, and that ancestor reads the buffer too.
Matching any enclosing `try` pulls in the entire function body — including the
two windowed-manifest spreads, which are bounded by the window size and are not
what this fixes.

Mutation-verified in both directions: restoring the spread turns the gate red
naming that line alone; deleting a manifest-window spread, and separately
adding a third one, both leave it green.

* fix(group): keep unreadable repos out of manifest contracts too

Per-repo staging closed one door: a repo whose extractor threw contributes
nothing through the direct path. Deferred manifest resolution was a second
door, still open. It derives its known-repo set from the resolved-handle map,
which kept an entry for a repo the same run had already declared unreadable —
so the sync re-opened that index and resolved symbols against a database it had
just told the operator it could not read.

Deleting the handle in the catch stops the re-open, but it does not satisfy
R2 on its own: `ManifestExtractor` resolves both endpoints of a link and emits
a contract for each, and for an endpoint with no executor that contract is
still emitted with a synthetic UID. The registry ended up naming a repo the
same run reported unreadable.

So the emitted output is filtered by ENDPOINT, not by link. Dropping the whole
link would delete the healthy partner's contract as well — a repo losing its
own output because a neighbour's index would not open, which is wider than the
requirement and destroys good data to suppress bad. A cross-link is different:
it asserts something about a pair, so if either end is unreadable there is
nothing left to anchor it to, and a half-anchored link is exactly the
confident-about-what-it-could-not-read answer the registry must not give.

Deleting the handle also changed what the operator gets told, so the warning is
split. An unreadable repo IS configured; letting it fall into the "references
repos not in config.repos" branch states something false and sends the reader
to edit group.yaml for a problem only re-indexing fixes. It now gets its own
message naming what was actually omitted.

Mutation-verified four ways: reverting the endpoint filter turns three
scenarios red; the over-broad whole-link variant turns the healthy-partner
scenario red and nothing else; removing the handle delete turns the
no-re-open scenario red; and reverting the warning split turns the operator-
message scenario red. Every assertion reads the written contracts.json rather
than the in-memory result.

* refactor(group): keep readBridgeMeta's signature stable across the shape gate

The shape gate landed by widening the return type to a reader-only
`ReadBridgeMeta extends BridgeMeta`. That is source-compatible — a covariant
return, one added optional field, every existing caller unaffected, typecheck
and suite clean — but the contract check reads it as a changed signature with a
caller left behind, and blocks the merge on it. This branch already hit the
same wall on `readRegistry` and settled it the same way: leave the signature
alone and make the difference legible some other way.

So the flag moves onto `BridgeMeta` itself as an optional, documented,
never-persisted field, and `readBridgeMeta` goes back to the exact signature
its callers already compile against.

That is the better shape here anyway. The reader-only subtype would have split
the validation two ways: `openBridgeDbReadOnly` and `bridgeExists` both gate on
`meta.version`, and the normalization that comes with the gate is what stops a
`version: null` in a hand-edited meta.json from reading as `undefined` and
sailing through `version > 0` as though the bridge had been vouched for. One
type keeps all three callers behind the same guard.

Nothing persists the flag: `writeBridgeMeta`'s only caller builds a fresh
literal, so it cannot round-trip to disk.

No behavior change — pure type restructuring. 927 tests pass, typecheck clean.

* fix(group): stop treating a half-written bridge stamp as a verified match

`bridgeMetaMatchesFile` joined its two `undefined` checks with `||`, so
metadata carrying a size and no mtime — or the reverse — returned `true`, the
same answer it gives a fully verified pair.

A stamp is a PAIR. Both halves absent is the legacy shape: metadata written
before stamping existed, which cannot be verified either way and is accepted
deliberately, because failing it closed would mark every pre-existing bridge
incomplete until re-synced. Exactly one half present is not that. Something
wrote a stamp and did not finish, which is precisely the condition stamping was
added to detect — so the check handed back "verified" for the one shape that
most deserves suspicion, and a cross-repo impact query built on it would report
a confident answer about a database its metadata cannot vouch for.

The two states are now separated: neither half present accepts, exactly one
rejects as provenance-unknown, both compare against the file as before.

Found by the repository's own contract check, not by the plan.

Mutation-verified: restoring the `||` form turns both half-stamp cases red
while the legacy and fully-stamped controls stay green, so the pair genuinely
pins the distinction rather than passing either way.

* fix(group): pair unstamped bridge metadata by write order, before any open

Unstamped metadata was waved through: `bridgeMetaMatchesFile` returned "matches"
for any pair with no stamp to check, so the stale-meta-beside-a-new-database
window stayed open for every bridge written before stamping existed, and
`runGroupImpact` spent that metadata's completeness as fact.

`writeBridge` renames the database into place and writes the metadata after, so
`meta.mtime >= db.mtime` holds for any pair written together — including by
builds that predate the stamp. A database strictly newer than the metadata
beside it can only come from a swap whose metadata write did not land. That is
the fallback now. It is a heuristic on write order, not proof of provenance, and
it is wrong in two directions: a stale metadata file touched after the swap
still reads as paired, and a pair whose clock stepped backwards between the two
writes reads as unpaired. Both are recorded at the code; the second is the safe
direction. Equality counts as paired, or a coarse-granularity filesystem would
reject every legacy bridge for a reason that is about the filesystem.

The verdict is now taken in `ensureBridgeReady` BEFORE the database is opened,
and carried on the metadata rather than recomputed afterwards.

That ordering is load-bearing, not tidiness. Impact and trace both open the
bridge and only then ask about provenance, so on any platform or LadybugDB
build where a read-only open advances the file's mtime, every pre-stamp bridge
would report provenance-unknown from its first query onward — the exact
repo-wide regression this rule was chosen to avoid, arriving as a silent
downgrade rather than an error. It does not happen on Linux, which was measured.
It cannot be measured on Windows: pinning it by really opening the database
needs an in-process write→read reopen of the same bridge.lbug, which is a
documented limitation there. Rather than ship a Windows-skipped test and leave
the assumption unverified on the platform whose file semantics are most likely
to differ, the check moved ahead of the open so no platform has to be trusted.

The new guard forces the hostile case on every platform: the open is stubbed to
advance the database's mtime, and the verdict must still be "paired". It is
registered in the cross-platform list so the Windows and macOS shards run it,
and it has a control so it cannot pass vacuously.

Two existing fixtures mocked `readBridgeMeta` to return a stamped-era version
while never writing a meta.json — a state production cannot reach, since a
non-zero version can only come from a file that exists. They now write the
metadata their own mock claims to have read, rather than the helper being
loosened to accept metadata it cannot stat.

Mutation-verified twice: reverting the write-order branch turns both rejection
cases red while all four legacy-accept cases stay green, and moving the pairing
call back after the open turns the ordering guard red on its own.

* refactor(group): compute cross-repo completeness in one place

Three surfaces can return a partial cross-repo answer — impact, trace, and the
contract listing — and each decided for itself whether it was complete. Impact
carried the structured triple; trace said it in prose, if at all. An agent
reading a not-found trace had no machine-readable way to tell "there is no
path" from "there may be a path in a repo this sync could not read", which is
the difference between an answer and a floor.

`crossRepoCompleteness` is now the one computation, and its input deliberately
does not name where any of it came from. `BridgeMeta` is not in the signature
and must not be: `groupContracts` answers the same question from contracts.json
and never opens a bridge, so `version`, `repoListsUnreadable` and
`pairedWithDatabase` do not exist on that path. Each caller derives its own
`provenanceUnknown` — the bridge callers through `bridgeProvenanceUnknown`,
which stays separate for exactly that reason — and passes the boolean in.

Scope arrives as a predicate rather than a repo list or a subgroup, so
narrowing a query's scope stays a change to one argument at the call site.

The trace results now carry `truncated` / `truncationReason` / `riskEpistemic`
like impact does. `notes` is untouched; it remains an addition to the machine
channel, never the channel.

One correction to the approach as written: it said to pass the trace's two
endpoint repos as the predicate, but a destination trace declares no `to`. It
asks where a call lands, so any member may hold the answer — and an unreadable
provider repo is precisely how "no outgoing ContractLink leaves this repo"
becomes a wrong answer rather than an empty one. Filtering that path to the
`from` repo would have reintroduced the bug this unit exists to close, so it
passes every repo and a test pins it.

Two pre-existing paths become consistent with the vocabulary as a result: a
crossing-capped result now reports `truncationReason: 'partial'` alongside the
`truncated` flag it already set, and the destination path's `ambiguous` returns
now report the cap its `ok` and `not_found` siblings already reported. Both are
additive — no field is removed, and no `truncated` flips from true to false.

`truncationFields` returns a discriminated union now, so `truncationReason`
reads without a fallback on the branch where it cannot be absent.

Mutation-verified: reverting the provenance fold alone — one line in the shared
helper — turns 8 tests red across both surfaces, 2 new trace scenarios and 6
existing impact ones, which is the point of there being one helper.

* fix(group): narrow the incomplete-repo set to the query's declared scope

A subgroup-scoped impact query was marked a lower bound by repos it had
explicitly excluded. The fan-out already drops every neighbour outside the
subgroup, so those repos could not have contributed a crossing to the answer —
and a completeness marker that fires on results it does not describe is how a
caller learns to ignore the marker.

The scope is the query's DECLARED one, not the one the walk reached. An
incomplete repo's contracts are absent from the bridge by definition, so it is
never in the traversed set; filtering on what was traversed would empty the
intersection on every query and silently restore the fail-open this channel
exists to close.

Declared scope here is the subgroup PLUS the query's own repo, which the
approach did not account for. The walk starts from that repo's contracts in the
bridge, so when it is the repo the sync could not read there are no crossings
to find under any scope — and a subgroup excluding it would have turned that
vacuum into a confident "nothing depends on this", for a tool an agent uses to
license a delete. That case reported a floor before this change, so narrowing to
the subgroup alone would have been a regression. The union only ever widens the
in-scope set, so it cannot re-mark a repo the query excluded.

Membership goes through the existing `repoInSubgroup` in both clauses, `exact`
for the origin equality, rather than growing a second notion of what it means
for a repo path to be in scope.

Sound only while `MAX_SUPPORTED_CROSS_DEPTH` is 1 — at depth 2 an out-of-scope
repo can sit between two in-scope ones — and that constraint is recorded at the
intersection.

Unscoped queries are byte-for-byte unchanged: `repoInSubgroup` answers true for
an absent subgroup, so the intersection is the whole set.

Mutation-verified: restoring the unfiltered predicate turns exactly the two
scoped cases red while the unscoped control and both in-scope guards stay green.

* fix(group): keep the preserved registry and the bridge from disagreeing

A total-failure sync refreshed contracts.json's diagnostic lists and left
meta.json alone. But meta.json, not contracts.json, is where runGroupImpact
reads completeness from — so the registry said "this sync could not read
app/backend" while a cross-repo query answered `{ cross: [], truncated: false }`.
Two surfaces describing the same run, one of them wrong, and the wrong one is
the machine-readable one an agent uses to license a delete.

The preserve path now refreshes the same two fields in the metadata. The
database stays untouched: it still holds the contracts being preserved, and
rebuilding it here would be the one write that could lose them.

Refreshing metadata is not free, though, and the obvious version of it is a
fail-open. The rewrite moves meta.json's mtime to now while bridge.lbug's stays
old, so an unstamped pair whose database is NEWER than its metadata — the shape
the write-order rule exists to reject — would come out of a preserve sync
passing the check. Writing "no stamp" does not help; the write-order comparison
is exactly what the moved mtime defeats. The verdict has to be recorded in the
metadata, because the refresh cannot avoid moving the mtime.

So `provenanceUnknown` is persisted whenever the existing pair does not already
check out, the existing stamp fields are carried through verbatim rather than
dropped, and `bridgeMetaMatchesFile` rejects the marker ahead of both the stamp
and the write-order heuristic. A pair that already matched is re-stamped
instead, which also upgrades a legacy unstamped-but-paired bridge to an exact
stamp. No preserve run can increase the number of pairs that pass the check.
The marker self-clears: `writeBridge` builds fresh metadata and never sets it.

`BridgeMeta` carries two reader-side fields documented as never persisted, and
this is the first code in the repo that reads metadata and writes it back. Both
are stripped explicitly before every write. `pairedWithDatabase` is the
dangerous one — persisted, it would tell every future reader the pair had been
verified — and a test seeds both on disk to pin that neither survives.

The write is not wrapped in a catch, unlike writeBridge on the success path.
There contracts.json is canonical and already written, so a stale bridge is a
recoverable degradation; here the write IS the guard against a confident wrong
answer, and swallowing its failure would reinstate the fail-open it closes.
`writeContractRegistry` above is unguarded into the same directory for the same
reason.

A group with neither file writes nothing: `readBridgeMeta` already answers
`version: 0` for an absent file, so a written one would say what the absence
already says while inventing state for a bridge that has never existed.

Mutation-verified three ways: dropping the marker write turns 6 red including
both laundering scenarios; moving the marker check below the stamp branches
turns the unstamped-laundering case red; removing the field stripping turns the
never-persisted test red. Each restored byte-exactly and re-verified.

* fix(group): report group_contracts' completeness in the shared vocabulary

`group_contracts` returned contracts and cross-links and said nothing about
whether that listing was the whole story. An agent reading it after a sync that
could not open half the group got a confident-looking list with no way to tell
it was a floor — the same fail-open the impact path already closed, on a surface
that had no channel for the answer at all.

It now returns the registry's two diagnostic lists and the structured triple,
folded through the same helper the impact and trace surfaces use, so the three
cannot drift. The helper takes no `BridgeMeta` precisely so this path — which
reads contracts.json and never opens a bridge — can share it.

The three registry states stay distinguishable, which is the point:
  - key absent: the registry predates the field and has no opinion about which
    indexes opened, so the key is omitted rather than invented as `[]`, and the
    listing reports a floor. It cannot say which repos the sync failed to read,
    so it cannot claim to be complete.
  - key present and empty: measured, clean, not truncated.
  - key present and populated: the repos, and a floor.

`incompleteRepos` is dropped on this surface alone: both lists it derives from
are returned verbatim beside it, and a third name for the same repos is drift
waiting to happen.

The import is lazy, matching `groupImpact` and `groupTrace` in this same class.
`cross-impact.js` statically pulls the native LadybugDB binding through
`bridge-db.js`, and `service.ts` is loaded by every `gitnexus group` subcommand
including ones that touch no database.

One fix inside the same file that this unit forced: the registry loader gated
`missingRepos` with a bare `Array.isArray`, which admits `[{repo:'x'}]`. That
was inert while nothing read the list, but this change both returns it and folds
it into the completeness answer — so an unreadable value would have been printed
as a repo name and would have flipped `truncated` on garbage. It now uses the
same `recordedRepoList` gate `group status` already applies to the same field.
`missingRepos` has always been required, so unlike `unreadableRepos` it has no
"not recorded" state to preserve and an unreadable value degrades to empty.

Mutation-verified: reverting the fold alone turns 14 tests red and leaves the
control — the contract and cross-link payload this tool has always returned —
green.

* fix(cli): stop dropping group contracts' completeness fields on the way out

`group contracts --json` destructured `{ contracts, crossLinks }` from the
service payload and rebuilt an object from just those two. Everything else the
service returned was discarded on the way to stdout — so the completeness
fields the MCP tool now carries were invisible at the CLI, and the two surfaces
disagreed about the same registry.

It prints the payload whole now. A field added to the service reaches `--json`
without a matching edit here, which is the point: the re-serialized subset was
a second place that had to be remembered, and it was not.

The human-readable path gains the same signal in words. A listing built from a
sync that could not read part of the group shows counts that are a floor, not a
census, and it named neither fact. It now says so and names the repos when the
registry recorded them — and says the sync did not record which repos it could
read when it did not, because a listing that cannot say what it is missing is
still incomplete.

Mutation-verified: restoring the re-serialized subset turns the `--json` case
and the control red.

* fix(group): tell a missing registry entry apart from an unreadable one

`group status` printed MISSING for both "this repo has no row in the registry"
and "the registry itself could not be read", so an operator whose registry.json
was corrupt was told every repo was unregistered — and sent to re-register them
instead of to the one file that was actually broken.

The two are now separate. `missing` keeps its old meaning and still flags every
unusable repo, so an older consumer is unaffected; `unresolvable` is additive,
always present, and carries the reason that produced it.

This is the one caller that has to make that distinction, so it takes the
strict global-registry read. `readRegistry`'s `catch { return [] }` collapses a
malformed registry into an empty one, which is indistinguishable from a genuine
absence and is exactly what produced the wrong label. The cost is accepted
knowingly and recorded at the call site: the strict read rejects the whole
registry when any row fails to identify a repo, so one malformed row renders
every member unresolvable — including members whose own rows are fine. That is
the honest verdict, and it is reported as an unresolved state rather than a
clean one.

Choosing between the two labels needs to know whether a row exists at all,
which `registryIdentifies` answers by mirroring the two tiers the resolver
matches a bare group-config value on — registry name, case-insensitively, and
repo path. It deliberately stops short of the hashed-id and partial-name tiers:
those exist to be generous about what an operator typed, while this only picks
a label, and a looser match would relabel a genuine registry miss as an
unresolvable row — the same conflation this change removes, pointed the other
way.

The plan's third failure mode — a row that resolves but whose storage path
cannot be opened — turns out to be unreachable: `loadMeta` returns null on
every error and `checkStaleness` catches everything, so nothing after
`resolveRepo` inside the try can throw. The reachable per-repo case is
`resolveRepo` itself throwing, as it does for two registered clones sharing a
name, and that is what the tests drive end to end through the real CLI. The
code still handles the plan's case correctly if those helpers ever start
throwing.

Mutation-verified: reverting the split turns 6 unit and 2 CLI cases red while
both controls — a genuine miss, and a healthy group — stay green.

* fix(cli): say what the preserve path actually does to contracts.json

The sync summary announced "Did NOT write contracts.json" on the branch that
writes it. The preserve path rewrites the file — keeping the previous sync's
contracts and cross-links, replacing only the two diagnostic lists — so an
operator who checked the mtime and found it moved was told the opposite of what
had happened, on the command this PR exists to make legible.

It now says the previous contracts were kept and names what changed.

The no-prior-registry branch is narrowed for the same reason. It claimed
nothing at all was written, and that is no longer true either: this path still
records the run against an existing bridge's metadata. The claim is now scoped
to contracts.json, which is the file it can actually speak for.

* fix(group): stop the total-failure log promising a preservation that did not happen

The warning fired before the prior registry was read, so it could only ever
promise one of the two things that might be true — and it promised the wrong
one to every group that has never synced: "keeping the contracts from the
previous sync" about a file that does not exist. The console line for that same
run, driven by `registryOutcome`, said the opposite.

It now lives inside the branch, after the read, with one message per outcome
chosen at the point the outcome is decided. The log and the console cannot
disagree, because the same fact selects both.

Both messages keep the warn level and the two repo lists.

Mutation-verified: reverting the split turns the no-prior-registry case red
while the preserved case — whose claim was already true — stays green. The
dry-run test's log filter was also widened to the sentence both messages share,
or the new wording would have made that assertion match nothing and pass
regardless.

* fix(group): make the bridge-failure warning describe what the code guarantees

The warning after a failed `writeBridge` promised that cross-repo impact would
report `truncated` until a sync succeeded. Nothing on that path produces that
signal.

The swap is the last step: `writeBridge` builds the new database in a staging
directory and only then moves the old one aside. A failure during the build
therefore leaves the previous sync's `bridge.lbug` exactly where it was, beside
the `meta.json` stamped for it — a pair that passes `bridgeMetaMatchesFile`
with the previous run's `unreadableRepos`. The next cross-repo query answers
`truncated: false` from superseded contracts, which is the opposite of what the
operator was told to expect, and worse than being told nothing.

The warning now says what is actually true: contracts.json is intact and
canonical, the bridge was not replaced, cross-repo queries may still answer from
the previous sync's contracts, and nothing marks them as superseded.

The metadata is deliberately NOT re-stamped to make the original promise true.
That would recreate exactly the metadata/database mis-pairing the stamping on
the preserve path exists to prevent, and the comment at the warning records it.

The claim is asserted against captured log output rather than left to the state
tests. Those check which pairs match and what the preserve path writes; every
one of them stays green while this sentence reverts to promising a truncation.
An unasserted user-facing branch is the defect class this change is closing, so
it does not get to close it while remaining one.

No filesystem shape makes the real `writeBridge` fail while
`writeContractRegistry` succeeds — they write into the same directory one line
apart — so the failure is armed through a pass-through wrapper on the file's
existing mock. It delegates byte-for-byte unless a test arms it, and is reset
around the new suite.

Mutation-verified: restoring the original wording turns its own assertion red
and nothing else.

* docs(mcp): name every registry outcome group_sync can actually return

The tool's description told agents `registryOutcome` is 'written' or
'preserved'. It has a third reachable value: 'no-prior-registry', returned when
nothing could be read AND there was no previous contracts.json to carry
forward. An agent calling this tool against a group that has never synced got a
value its own tool description said did not exist, and no way to tell it apart
from the case where the previous contracts survive.

The distinction is the whole point of the value. After 'preserved' there is a
registry to read — stale, but real. After 'no-prior-registry' there is nothing
on disk at all, so a following group_contracts or group_impact has no registry
rather than an old one. Those need different responses from the caller.

'not-attempted' stays undocumented because it is unreachable through this tool,
and a guard asserts it stays that way.

The code comment above the annotations claimed the preserve path does NOT write
contracts.json. It does — it rewrites the file, keeping the previous contracts
and cross-links and refreshing only the two diagnostic lists, which the CLI's
own summary was corrected to say a few commits ago. Left alone it would have
re-seeded the same wrong claim next to the text that now states it correctly.

Mutation-verified: deleting the 'no-prior-registry' sentence turns the guard red.

* docs(mcp): explain structural incompleteness on the impact tool and status resource

The impact tool's GROUP MODE paragraph described one cause of truncation — the
fan-out running out of room — and left an agent to assume that was the only one.
So a `truncated: true` carrying `truncationReason: 'incomplete-sync'` read as
"retry with a smaller scope", when retrying returns the identical floor forever:
the repos are absent from the bridge itself, and only a re-sync puts them back.
The old text also said the response carries the truncation fields "when it stops
early", which is wrong for that case — `truncatedRepos` names repos even when
ZERO crossings to them were attempted, because their contracts were never in the
bridge to cross to.

The paragraph now branches on the reason and gives each its remedy: 'timeout'
and 'partial' are runtime limits where a retry or a larger budget can help;
'incomplete-sync' is structural and the remedy is `group_sync`.

The reason union is now derived from an exported `as const` array rather than
written as a bare type. A type-only union gives a guard nothing to enumerate, so
the guard has to hand-list the members — and then it passes forever the moment a
fourth is added, which is the exact regression it exists to catch. The guard
iterates the runtime array instead. Verified by appending a probe member and
watching it go red, then removing it. The resolved type is unchanged; every
importer uses `import type` and none needed an edit.

The status resource said "Group index / contract staleness" and nothing about
the distinctions its payload now carries. It explains all of them: a repo absent
from the registry versus one whose entry could not be resolved, and the
`unreadableRepos` tri-state where an ABSENT key is not an empty one — absent
means the last sync never recorded what it could read, so cross-repo answers for
that group are a floor.

The description an MCP client actually receives lives in `getResourceTemplates`,
not in the context resource's inventory line the plan pointed at. Both now carry
the vocabulary, so the two surfaces cannot disagree about the same payload.

* feat(group): serialize group syncs behind a fail-closed per-group lock

Two concurrent syncs of one group could lose one another's writes. Both read
the prior registry, both built contracts, both wrote — last writer won, and the
loser's work was gone with nothing reporting it. A group sync is long and
expensive and is exactly the operation whose lost update destroys contracts.

`syncGroup` now takes a lock for the whole persist section, acquired exactly
once. `acquireIndexLock` is not reentrant, so a second acquisition anywhere
below would deadlock the happy path rather than an edge case; `withGroupSyncLock`
has one call site and nothing inside it re-acquires.

The lock lives on a dedicated `sync-lock` directory inside the group directory,
mirroring the registry lock's dedicated directory rather than reusing the
resource's own — a lock directory that could collide with a per-repo index slot
repeats a bug the registry lock's comment already warns about.

It fails CLOSED, which is the opposite of `withRegistryLock` and deliberately
so. That one degrades to unlocked because it guards a sub-second JSON merge on
a latency-critical path; here running unprotected is the outcome the lock
exists to prevent. Three exits are covered: a timeout, an unwritable lock
directory, and the lock-free degradation the primitive performs silently.

That third exit needed a change in `index-lock.ts`, and it is the one declared
exception to keeping this work inside core/group/. `acquireIndexLock` answers a
read-only or permission-denied filesystem with a no-op handle that is
byte-identical in shape to a real one, so a caller for whom lock-free is not an
acceptable outcome could not tell the difference. It now carries an optional
`lockFree` marker. The change is additive by construction: no signature moves,
no control flow changes, nothing about when or how a lock is taken changes, and
every caller that ignores the field behaves exactly as before.

A filesystem probe inside the group module was considered and rejected on
evidence: `selectBackend` returns `socket` on Linux and Windows, where
`acquireViaSocket` never touches the filesystem and this branch cannot occur —
so a probe would refuse syncs on the two platforms that never degrade while
missing the one that does.

The timeout ceiling is a named 600s constant passed explicitly. The magnitude
matches the primitive's own analyze-sized default because a group sync is
analyze-shaped and a legitimately queued second sync must be able to wait out a
full first one. Passing it explicitly is about the override, not the magnitude:
`resolveTimeoutMs` resolves `GITNEXUS_INDEX_LOCK_TIMEOUT_MS <= 0` to Infinity,
which would turn fail-closed into a hang.

Cross-process exclusion is proved with a real spawned holder, not an in-process
mock, which cannot demonstrate the property this exists for. The lock-free
scenario pins `GITNEXUS_INDEX_LOCK_BACKEND=file` — unpinned it would pass on
two of three platforms while measuring nothing — and produces the failure by
injecting EACCES on one syscall rather than by chmod, so it runs identically on
Windows instead of being skipped there.

The CLI reports the failure through pino rather than a bare stderr write, which
this package lints as an error to keep that migration moving, and the test reads
the `msg` field rather than a raw substring — matching on the raw text would
have passed only by accident of quoting and would go green again if the line
were downgraded.

Nothing is skipped on any platform, and the test is registered for the
cross-platform shards.

Mutation-verified: removing the lock acquisition turns 6 scenarios red;
removing the lock-free rejection turns the degradation scenario red on its own.

* fix(group): make the sync-lock timeout name a cause it can establish

The fail-closed lock surfaced the primitive's own timeout message to users for
the first time, and that message says the wait was on "another gitnexus
analyze" — a cause its detection path cannot establish. It is the same
confident-about-what-it-could-not-determine claim this PR exists to remove,
inherited rather than written.

The wrapper now throws its own. It names the group, the lock directory, the
operation, and the elapsed wait, and it says plainly that nothing was written.

The holder clause branches on `holderKnown`. The socket backend exposes no owner
metadata and reports a placeholder pid of -1, so on that backend — and on the
file backend's malformed or vanished-lock timeouts — the message says the lock
stayed held but the backend cannot identify who held it, rather than printing a
pid that means nothing.

The elapsed wait is measured by the wrapper. `IndexLockTimeoutError` carries
only `holder` and `holderKnown`; the figure exists solely inside the string
being replaced, so it had to be taken rather than read.

One pre-existing assertion changed with it: the timeout case asserted
`'Timed out after 600000ms'` from the inherited text, which is precisely the
message this replaces.

Mutation-verified: restoring the inherited message turns the three assertion
cases red and leaves the control — a real acquisition that succeeds — green.

* fix(group): stop a losing sync from downgrading the one that beat it to the lock

Serializing is not ordering. Both syncs run extraction outside the critical
section, so a total-failure sync that acquires second reads the winner's fresh
registry as `prior` and rewrites it with all-unreadable lists. The lock alone
does not prevent that — it only decides who goes second, and the loser then
overwrites a healthy registry with a description of its own failure.
Deterministically, not as a rare interleave.

The guard is a compare-and-swap on the registry file's own identity: stat
before acquiring, re-stat after, and write nothing when they differ. Identity is
presence plus size, mtime and inode — `writeContractRegistry` publishes through
write-then-rename, so a real replacement always changes the inode even if size
and mtime happen to collide.

Deliberately NOT keyed on `generatedAt`, for two independent reasons. It is
stamped when the registry object is built, before the lock is acquired, so a
winner that waited would write a value older than the loser's start. And the
preserve path carries it forward verbatim by design — it dates the contracts,
not the write — so after any preserve sync it does not date the write at all,
leaving the comparison blind on exactly the pairing this guards. A file-identity
compare also needs no cross-process clock agreement.

The skip reports the existing `preserved` outcome. Nothing was written and a
prior registry was kept, which is what that value already means; a new one would
falsify the guard asserting the sync tool's description names every reachable
outcome, and would fall through the CLI's outcome chain, which has no fallback.

The bridge metadata refresh is skipped too, which the plan did not specify.
`refreshPreservedBridgeMeta` stamps THIS run's repo lists into meta.json, and
meta.json is where cross-repo impact reads completeness — so writing it would
report as unaccounted-for exactly the repos the winning sync had just accounted
for. That is the same downgrade being refused, one file over. Skipping both is
what makes `preserved` an honest answer here.

Mutation-verified: removing the after-stat and the skip turns the three decisive
cases red while both non-misfire controls stay green.

* refactor(group): run the bridge swap inside the caller's critical section

The bridge swap needed the group lock, and could not take it: `syncGroup`
already holds it when it calls `writeBridge`, and `acquireIndexLock` is not
reentrant. Acquiring inside the swap would deadlock every sync on the happy
path rather than on an edge case.

So the body splits the way this repo already splits this shape — a lock-free
`writeBridgeUnlocked` whose precondition is that the caller holds the lock, and
a thin `writeBridge` wrapper that acquires it for direct callers, mirroring
`registerRepoUnlocked` / `withRegistryLock`. `syncGroup` calls the inner one;
everything else keeps calling `writeBridge` and is now serialized by it.

`writeBridge`'s exported signature is byte-identical to before, so no caller
changed and nothing about the exported surface moved.

The precondition is enforced by a comment naming the single production call
site, which is what the existing precedent does. A type could carry it, but the
repo's own answer to this question is a comment, and diverging here would make
this the odd one out for no additional guarantee.

`refreshPreservedBridgeMeta` is deliberately left unsplit. Its one caller is
already inside the critical section and it has no test callers, so an acquiring
wrapper would be dead code standing in for a guarantee the caller already
provides — and moving the lock inside it would be the second acquisition this
change exists to avoid.

Scope: this delivers writer-writer exclusion only. The reader-side promotion of
a leftover `.bak` into place runs on ordinary reads, outside any lock, and is
not claimed here — the pairing check remains the reader's defense. Confirmed as
live behavior while writing the crash-recovery test, which asserts on file
state rather than through `bridgeExists` for exactly that reason.

One test file beyond the two the unit named had to change: a suite mocks
`bridge-db` to inject a `writeBridge` failure and exercise the bridge-write
warning. Once the sync calls `writeBridgeUnlocked`, that fault was being
injected into a function the path no longer calls, and the test went red. The
mock is repointed.

Mutation-verified three ways. Pointing the sync back at the acquiring wrapper
deadlocks a single UNCONTENDED sync — the evidence that the nesting defect is
real and that this split is what prevents it. Removing the wrapper's
acquisition turns the direct-write exclusion case red. Making the lock-free half
acquire for itself turns the held-lock case red.

* test(hygiene): reach every tracked text file with the raw-byte guard

The guard claimed to protect tracked source from a raw NUL — the byte that
makes git classify a file binary and costs it its diff, its inline comments and
its three-way merge on GitHub. It matched on an end-anchored extension regex
covering the JavaScript family, so most of what this repo tracks was never
looked at: JSON, YAML, TOML, Markdown, snapshots, SQL, protobuf, the .NET
project files, the shell and batch scripts.

Worse, an extension regex cannot reach a file that has none. `Dockerfile`,
`CODEOWNERS`, `LICENSE`, the husky hook and every bare dotfile were unreachable
by construction — no amount of widening the pattern would have covered them —
so a second basename filter had to exist for the claim to be true.

It stays an allowlist rather than becoming "everything git tracks", because the
repo legitimately tracks binaries whose extensions must stay out.

The two filters together now collect every one of the 5000 tracked files except
31 — the 30 native prebuilds and one PNG — and those 31 are exactly the files
that carry a NUL. The allowlist no longer has a gap that is not a genuine
binary.

The planted-fixture cases route through the collector's own predicate rather
than straight into the scanner. The pre-existing fixture test bypassed the
filter entirely, so it could only ever prove the byte locator worked, never
that the collector would hand it the file — which is precisely how the gap
survived.

Mutation-verified both ways: removing the basename filter drops `.gitignore`
and `Dockerfile` from the planted results, and reverting the extension regex
drops `.json` and `.md`.

One added case is a preservation pin rather than proof — that tracked binary
formats stay out passes either way, and guards the allowlist from becoming a
denylist later.

* test(hygiene): stop the byte guard reading the vendored grammar tree

Widening the guard to every tracked text format also pulled in the vendored
tree-sitter grammars, and those are where the bytes are: four generated
`parser.c` files come to 62 MB between them, Kotlin's alone 33.7 MB. Excluding
that root drops 76 files but 66% of the bytes the scan reads — 97 MB down to
33 MB.

The exclusion is a single anchored prefix, matched case-sensitively with
`startsWith`, and both halves of that matter. A `vendor` path-SEGMENT match
would also drop first-party fixtures this repo tracks under directories named
`vendor` and `Vendor` — a Kotlin one, a PHP one, and three files under
gitnexus-web — silently narrowing coverage while the assertion pinned the loss
in place. Case-insensitivity would do the same to a `Vendor` directory at the
excluded root's own level.

The root is named in the guard itself, so the claim that it covers every
tracked text file stays honest about the one place it deliberately does not
look.

The cost comment was wrong and is now measured rather than estimated. It said
"the scan is ~10 ms" — ambiguous between locating the byte and reading the
files, and stale in its byte basis. Locating is ~14 ms; the reads dominate it
by two orders of magnitude, which is the actual reason for the concurrency pool
and the actual reason this exclusion is worth having. Every figure was
re-derived from the finished file rather than carried over from a draft.

The header's claim that `git ls-files` "never descends into vendor" was already
false — vendored code is tracked, so all 106 of its files were being reported
and read. Corrected here, where the distinction becomes load-bearing.

Registered in the cross-platform list first and given a shard weight second.
The weight table is only consulted for files already in that list, so a weight
entry alone is inert and the shard test filters unregistered keys without
complaining. The three-way split stays within 1.01x of ideal.

Mutation-verified three ways: a case-insensitive segment match, a
case-sensitive segment match, and a case-insensitive anchored prefix each turn
an assertion red.

The casing half was initially unfalsifiable — nothing tracked is named
`gitnexus/Vendor/`, so a tracked-set assertion could not distinguish it. Rather
than leave the claim unpinned or invent a fixture, it is pinned on the
predicate with a synthetic path; the tracked-set assertions pin the anchoring.

* test(group): make the strict-read test able to see which read ran

The file bound both registry exports to one mock:

    readRegistry:       (...args) => readRegistryMock(...args),
    readRegistryStrict: (...args) => readRegistryMock(...args),

so the case named for the strict read asserted a behavior it could not
attribute. Point the production call at the lenient export and every assertion
still holds, because the mock answers the same way whichever one is called.

That is not a hypothetical. With this file as it was, and `syncGroup` mutated to
call `readRegistry` instead of `readRegistryStrict`, all 32 tests passed — the
suite was blind to the exact substitution it exists to prevent, and the fix it
guards could have been reverted without a single red.

The exports now have separate mocks: the lenient one always resolves an empty
list, which is its real contract, and only the strict one is armed by the cases
that need a failure. The named case also asserts directly that the strict read
was called and the lenient one was not, so the attribution is explicit rather
than implied by an outcome.

No tests added — the unit is about what the existing ones can see.

Mutation-verified: the same substitution now turns 24 cases red, including the
named one, and everything stays green unmutated.

* test(group): pin the CLI output branches this PR introduced

The three sync outcomes and the status table's new labels had no assertions.
Every one of them is a sentence about what happened on disk, and this PR
corrected several that were false — a preserve branch that announced it had not
written the file it rewrites, a status table that called an unreadable registry
a missing entry. Text that describes state, with nothing pinning it, is how
those got wrong in the first place.

Six cases drive the real CLI end to end, through the two shapes that need no
indexed repo: members absent from the registry, and members registered at a
storage path with no index file, which makes every repo unreadable. The file
header claimed no LadybugDB-backed command was driven end to end; that is no
longer true and it now says so.

Each branch was suppressed in turn and its assertion goes red — all five that
the plan named.

One of those mutations first reported PASS, and the cause is worth recording: the
string being suppressed also appears inside a neighbouring branch's comment, so
the harness silenced the wrong line. That is a bad mutation, not a weak test.
The harness now asserts the marker it suppresses is unique before trusting the
result, and the redone check goes red.

The plan's sixth scenario is already covered by an existing case that asserts
both labels in one table, so it is not duplicated. A seventh case was added
beyond the plan: without a populated-list case, "prints neither line" would pass
just as well against a CLI that never printed that line at all.

Adds about 15s of measured spawn time locally; CI runs these against the built
dist, which is materially faster per spawn.

* test(group): assert the MCP payloads by exact shape, not by partial match

Nothing asserted what the group tools actually return. The sync response's
unreadable list and registry outcome, and the contract listing's incompleteness
fields, are documented in the tool descriptions an agent reads — and could have
been dropped in a refactor without a single test noticing.

The assertions are exact-shape rather than partial. A `toMatchObject` would let
a dropped key pass, which is precisely the regression these exist to catch: the
failure mode is an absent field, and a partial match is defined not to see one.
Absences are additionally asserted explicitly.

The tri-state has to survive the response boundary, and it is the reason exact
shape matters here more than usual. An absent `unreadableRepos` means the sync
never recorded what it could read, so the listing is a floor; an empty list
means it measured none; a populated list names them. Collapsing absent into
empty turns "we do not know" into "we checked, it is fine" — so a mutation that
replaces the conditional spread with `?? []` is covered specifically, not just
the outright deletion.

Mutation-verified per field: removing either sync forwarding line, deleting the
conditional spread, replacing it with the invent-empty form, dropping the
truncation triple, or hardcoding the provenance flag each turns an assertion
red.

* docs(group): stop the bridge input narrowing what unreadableRepos means

The same field had three definitions. The registry and the bridge metadata both
say it covers a repo this sync could not extract from — an index that would not
open, or an extractor that threw partway through, one bucket because the
consequence is one thing. The bridge input said only "whose index could not be
opened", which describes one cause and silently excludes the other.

It now points at the registry's definition instead of restating it a third
time. A definition written once and referenced cannot drift; three copies of it
already had.

* docs(group): record what the mtime pairing does and does not prove

The write-order fallback is a heuristic standing in for provenance, and a
future reader deciding whether to lean on it needs to know where it breaks
before they do. Both directions are now stated where the function is read
rather than only in the plan that introduced it.

The false-accept direction is a non-monotonic wall clock — mtime is realtime,
so an NTP step back, a snapshot restore, or container skew between the two
writes can leave a mis-paired set reading as ordered. Coarse filesystem
granularity is explicitly called out as NOT being that hazard, because it looks
like it: it collapses a pair written together to equal times, and equal is
accepted, which is the right answer for that pair.

The false-reject direction is any copy or restore that rewrites the database's
mtime after the metadata's. An intact legacy pair is demoted to a lower bound
and stays there until a sync re-stamps it, because nothing on the read path can
tell it apart from the swap window it imitates.

That second direction corrects a claim made while planning this work: that the
rule could only ever demote pairs already broken. It cannot. `cp -r` and
`rsync` without timestamp preservation both produce it on a healthy group, and
saying otherwise where the code is read would leave a future reader to discover
it the hard way.

* fix(storage): stop a corrupt registry quoting its own bytes into errors

`JSON.parse`'s SyntaxError embeds a window of the source around the failure —
V8 gives exactly ten characters either side — and the strict read rethrew it
untouched. The registry persists HTTPS remote URLs with their userinfo, so a
file that breaks next to one puts the credential into the error:

    Unexpected token 'L', ..."end.git"},LEAKCAN4RY"... is not valid JSON

The parse now has its own guarded region and reports the path and the failure
class, matching the two corrupt-registry errors already in this function.

The original error is discarded — not logged, not attached as `cause`. This
codebase's convention elsewhere is to hand the logger the Error so it captures
stack and cause, and following that convention here is precisely what would put
the byte window into the log. Under MCP stdio that log is written to the
client's log file on disk, so the thrown-error channel was never the only one
that mattered. The `catch` takes no binding, so the error cannot be reused by
accident later.

That was not theoretical: a sibling commit routes this message into
`unresolvableReason`, which `group status` returns to MCP clients and prints in
the CLI table. Every channel was traced — throw, cause, inspect with the full
chain, the logger, and both downstream consumers.

The leaking shape is narrower than it first appears, and worth recording. The
windowed message only fires when the parser fails at a value-start or trailing
position; a break inside a quoted string yields an unterminated-string error
carrying no window. So a plain mid-URL truncation does not leak — a short write
landing over a longer one does, leaving a URL fragment where a value was
expected. That is a reachable shape for the one machine-wide file every
gitnexus process writes.

The test asserts the message still names the path and the corruption class, not
only that the secret is absent. Asserting absence alone would stay green if the
message became empty.

Mutation-verified: restoring the raw rethrow brings the token back verbatim.

* docs(storage): drop the stale lenient call-site count

The docstring said keeping `readRegistry`'s signature untouched leaves "its
nine other call sites" unaffected. There were thirteen when the discrepancy was
noticed and fourteen by the time it was fixed. The same figure appeared in the
test file's header.

Replaced rather than corrected. A count in prose next to code that moves is a
claim that goes stale without anything failing — which is the defect class this
change set exists to remove, so re-seeding a fresh number would be repeating it
with a longer fuse. The argument was never about the quantity: leaving the
signature alone keeps every lenient caller provably unaffected whether there is
one or fifty.

Also withdrawn while here: the claim that the bridge schema-version guards
diverge between call sites. They do not — the two forms are complements for
every value a writer can produce, there are three sites rather than the two
claimed, and all three agree. Recording a divergence that does not exist would
leave a future reader chasing it.

* docs(group): add an auditable finding-to-commit map

The Definition of Done claims every review finding has exactly one commit and
that reverting it reintroduces that finding and no other. Without a map that
claim is only checkable by whoever holds the review report, which is one person
for a short time.

The map lists all 28 primary findings against their commits, the three findings
whose suggested fix was deliberately not implemented and what shipped instead,
and the four defects found while executing that no reviewer raised.

It also records the revert contract honestly. Revertability is
dependency-aware, not absolute: the shared completeness helper has three
consumers, so reverting it alone does not build. That coupled set is named
rather than left for someone to discover mid-revert.

Two sections exist because the work produced them, not because the plan asked.
Six claims in the plan turned out to be contradicted by the code — among them a
scope predicate that would have reintroduced the bug its unit was closing, and
an assertion about the mtime rule that was simply wrong. Recording only the
findings would leave the impression the plan was followed as written. Five
residual risks are listed for the same reason, including that R14 is not met on
this PR: the diff attribute works locally but GitHub reads it from the base
side, so this PR's own sync.ts stays binary in the web view and every PR after
it renders as text.

Not under docs/ — that path is gitignored, so a map written there would never
reach the PR and the audit it exists for could not be performed by anyone else.

* fix(group): read a version that is not a version as no provenance

Raised by the check bot on this PR, and real — the bot found one symptom of it;
the field splits four gates apart, not one.

`readBridgeMeta` accepted any numeric `version`, and `0` is this file's word for
"no provenance". A parseable but impossible value — negative, fractional — is
not a schema version, and each gate that reads the field disagreed about it:

  ensureBridgeReady      `> 0 && !== CURRENT`  → opens the bridge
  openBridgeDbReadOnly   `> 0 && !== CURRENT`  → opens the bridge
  bridgeExists           `=== 0 || === CURRENT` → says it is not there
  bridgeProvenanceUnknown `=== 0`               → reports the answer complete

Four verdicts about one file, and the last one is a fail-open of exactly the
class this PR exists to close: a bridge nothing can vouch for, reported as
fully accounted for.

The suggested fix was to widen the provenance check to `<= 0`. That closes the
reported symptom and leaves `bridgeExists` still disagreeing with both openers,
so it is fixed at the reader instead: a version that is not a positive integer
normalizes to the sentinel the gates were all written against. One change, four
gates agreeing by construction, rather than teaching each of them the same new
case and hoping the fifth reader remembers.

Infinity is covered too, though by the pre-existing type check rather than the
range one — JSON cannot carry it, so it arrives as `null`. Recorded at the test
so the case is not mistaken for proof of the range check.

Mutation-verified: restoring the loose numeric check turns the negative and

* fix(group): stop a malformed contracts.json reading as an unresolvable registry entry

Raised by the check bot on this PR. Its stated mechanism was wrong — `loadMeta`
returns null on every error and `checkStaleness` catches everything, so neither
can throw — but its conclusion was right, and there is a concrete path it did
not name.

`readContractRegistry` is a bare `JSON.parse(content) as ContractRegistry` with
no shape check, and the snapshot lookup guarded only the registry object:

    registry?.repoSnapshots[repoPath]

The `?.` covers `registry` being null, not `repoSnapshots` being absent. A
contracts.json without that field — a legacy file, a hand-edit, a truncated
write — throws `TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined`, which lands in
the catch that labels failures as unresolvable GLOBAL-registry entries. So a
group whose own contracts file is malformed reported every repo as a broken
registry row, sending the operator to repair a file that was fine.

An error from one cause presented as another, which is the defect this PR has
been removing everywhere else.

The optional chain closes the crash. The try is also narrowed to the call that
earns the label: only `resolveRepo` sits inside it now, so "did not resolve"
describes something that actually failed to resolve rather than whatever else
happened to throw nearby. The comment records why the other two calls in that
block cannot throw, so the next reader does not have to re-derive it.

* refactor(group): give the completeness fold a module no native binding reaches

The shared fold ended up in `cross-impact.ts`, which statically imports
`bridge-db.ts` and through it the native LadybugDB binding. `groupContracts`
therefore reached it through `await import('./cross-impact.js')` — loading that
whole module graph to run a Set union and a ternary. Measured: 44-51ms and
8.4MB of RSS on first call, paid once per MCP server and once per
`gitnexus group contracts` invocation.

`completeness.ts` holds the vocabulary and the fold and imports nothing but
types. `service.ts` imports it statically; the lazy import and the comment
justifying it both go. `cross-impact.ts` re-exports so the three surfaces still
have one import site for the vocabulary.

Three other duplications collapse into the same move.

`traceCompleteness` was hand-writing `{truncated, truncationReason,
riskEpistemic}` — a third writer of the pair `truncationFields` exists to keep
mechanically linked (#2787), in the file the consolidation had just touched. It
calls the helper now.

`recordedRepoList` existed twice, byte-identical, one copy's docblock saying it
mirrored the other. That gate is the predicate the whole
absent-vs-empty-vs-populated distinction rests on, applied to the same two
lists on both the registry and the bridge — tightening one copy would have
fixed one surface silently. One definition now.

The trace's scope predicate compared repo paths with `===` while its sibling in
`cross-impact.ts`, added in the same change, went through `repoInSubgroup` with
a comment about not growing a second notion of membership. It had grown one:
the helper normalizes separators and strips trailing slashes, so the same
group.yaml spelling could be in scope for impact and out of scope for trace.

Also here: `registryIdentifies` was a third, weaker copy of the registry's path
rule — it skipped `realpath`, so a symlinked row would not match where the real
resolver would. It uses `canonicalizePath`/`registryPathEquals` now.
`contracts.json` is no longer respelled as a literal in `sync.ts`; `storage.ts`
owns the name it reads and writes. And the runtime-truncation predicate is
bound once instead of written out at both the flag and the reason, where
forgetting the second would label a retry-able answer `incomplete-sync`.

* fix(group): give the lost-the-race sync its own outcome instead of overloading preserved

A sync that finds contracts.json replaced while it waited for the lock reported
`registryOutcome: 'preserved'`. That value already meant something else, and the
two differ in exactly the thing the value is for: `preserved` rewrites the file
with this run's diagnostics; this path does not touch it and deliberately does
not record them.

So both surfaces stated something false about disk. The tool description told
agents `preserved` means "contracts.json was rewritten ... refreshing only
missingRepos/unreadableRepos to describe THIS run (the file changed)". The CLI
said "only the unreadable/missing repo lists were refreshed to describe THIS
run". On the lost-race branch nothing was written and the log line beside it
says so outright.

That is the defect class this whole change set removes, reintroduced by the
change set itself — and the reasoning recorded at the time makes it worse, not
better: a new value was rejected because it "would fall through cli/group.ts's
outcome chain, which has no fallback branch". A renderer limitation decided a
domain value, and the description then had to cover two states with one
sentence that fits one of them.

`superseded` is its own outcome now, described in its own words to agents and
rendered in its own words at the CLI. The registry on disk is FRESHER than this
response's diagnostics, which is the opposite of every other non-written
outcome and is why an agent needs to tell them apart.

The CLI renders from a `Record` keyed on the union, so the next outcome fails
the build here rather than printing nothing — the gap that made folding the
state in look like the cheap option.

The description guard is scoped per clause rather than over the whole string.
It forbade "untouched" anywhere, which was right when one clause could only lie
in that direction and wrong now that another clause is accurately untouched. It
also asserts the superseded clause says so, or the two collapse back into one
word for two states.

Found by the quality pass over this branch, not by review.

* test(group): read bytes and stat through one handle, not two path lookups

CodeQL flagged both sites as `js/file-system-race`, high severity, and it is
right about the shape. `stat(path)` followed by `readFile(path)` is two
independent path resolutions with a window between them — the classic
check-then-use race.

It also made the assertions weaker than they read. These two tests exist to
prove a specific file was left untouched, and two lookups can land on different
inodes, so "the bytes and the mtime are both unchanged" was not actually a
statement about one file. The distinction is the whole point here rather than a
technicality.

`snapshotFile` opens the path once and takes both answers from that handle. The
race is gone because there is no second lookup, and the assertion now genuinely
concerns one inode.

I had previously triaged these as below the ruleset's threshold and left them
for the repository owner. That was wrong: they carry
`security_severity_level: high`, and the branch ruleset gates on
`high_or_higher`, so they were blocking the merge rather than sitting under it.

* fix(mcp): key the empty-ascent note on CALL_SUMMARY data, not language (#2802)

`pdg-impact.ts` decided whether to append a "return-value ascent is
TypeScript/JavaScript-only" caveat to the `impact(mode:'pdg')` note by
looking up the criterion file's language. That put language-specific
logic in a layer that must be language-agnostic, and it was a lossy proxy
for a fact the graph already holds.

Whether the ascent can fire is a property of the persisted CALL_SUMMARY
edges. The descent already computes it, so thread the resolved-callee and
return-flowing counts out of `interproceduralDescent` and key the note on
those instead.

Three defects the language proxy carried, all gone:

  - Wrong for `.mjs`/`.cjs`/`.mts`/`.cts`: the provider registry's
    extension arrays omit them while the ingestion pipeline parses them
    as TS/JS, so those files were harvested but the note claimed their
    ascent was empty.
  - Silently stale: any language whose harvester started recording formal
    indices would keep getting the caveat until someone edited the list.
  - Wrong in reverse: a TS/JS callee with no return-flow got no caveat, so
    an ascent that found nothing read like one that covered the slice.

`pdg-impact.ts` now names no language and imports nothing from the
language layer, which also drops the analyze-only provider closure from
MCP server startup. Measured on overlayfs against a full build:

  import mcp/local/local-backend.js  before  565-648 ms / 548 modules
  import mcp/local/local-backend.js  after   458-463 ms / 170 modules

Tests hold CALL_SUMMARY content fixed while varying the file extension
across nine languages and assert the note text is identical, then hold the
extension fixed and vary the summary to show the note tracks the data.

* test(mcp): guard MCP startup against the language-provider closure returning

The eager `pdg-impact.ts -> core/ingestion/languages` edge was found and
lost once already during #2793 before #2802 re-derived it, so it gets a
test rather than a comment.

* docs(lbug): record why csv-generator is not lazy-imported

#2802 proposed cutting `csv-generator.js` out of the adapter chain to
shorten MCP server startup. Measured on a native filesystem, the marginal
cost is small relative to the siblings this module already imports, and
`core/search/bm25-index.ts` statically imports `normalizeFtsText` from the
same module on a path `local-backend.ts` reaches dynamically for FTS — so
deferring would relocate the cost to first query, not remove it.

* test(pdg): pin chained receiver calls reaching BasicBlock.calleeIds

The PDG inter-procedural descent hops through `BasicBlock.calleeIds`, so
it can only cross a call boundary the resolver resolved. Chained receiver
calls reach `calleeIds` through the receiver-typing pass's own
`calleeIdSink` — a separate path from plain calls.

* docs(analyze): drop the stale per-language cross-reference (#2802 review P3-4)

`pdgModeMismatch`'s comment told readers to keep "the diagnostic
per-language refinement in the impact CONSUMER (see pdg-impact.ts
assemblePdgImpactResult)". That refinement is no longer per-language —
removing it is the point of #2802, which now keys the empty-ascent note on
the persisted CALL_SUMMARY data instead.

The comment's real invariant is untouched and still correct: the values in
`resolvePdgConfig` must stay scalar, because the comparison below is a
shallow `!==` and an object would compare by reference. Only the
cross-reference was stale.

* test(mcp): probe the real module loader for the startup language closure (#2802 review P1-2)

The previous guard hand-rolled a regex walk over TypeScript source to
assert `core/ingestion/languages` was not statically reachable from MCP
startup. Four bypasses were reproduced against it, any one of which let
the exact 226-module regression return while the test stayed green:

  a. Wrong entry root. It walked from `mcp/local/local-backend.ts`, but the
     server module is `mcp/server.ts` — which imports LocalBackend as
     `import type`, so the guard's anchor was not even on server.ts's
     runtime closure. Ten real startup modules sat outside it.
  b. A top-level `await import(...)` executes during module evaluation, so
     it is eager at startup — but the walker skipped every `import(...)`
     by construction.
  c. The `import type` strip deleted a 16,445-character window of
     `pdg-impact.ts`: an `export type X =` matched lazily to the next
     `from "…"`, which lives inside a string literal. Any import in that
     window was invisible.
  d. The comment strip treated a `/*` inside a string literal as a comment
     opener.

Replace the approximation with a real module-load probe: spawn a child
node process per entry, import the built `dist/` entry, and report what
the loader actually pulled in. Rooted at `dist/mcp/server.js` and
`dist/cli/mcp.js` (the real startup entries) plus
`dist/mcp/local/local-backend.js`. Syntax cannot fool it.

One deviation from the two existing sibling probes is load-bearing:
`dist/` is ESM, so a `require.cache` diff alone cannot see the first-party
`dist/**` graph — it only catches CJS and native modules, which is why
`import-closure.test.ts` gets away with it (it asserts on
`@ladybugdb/core`). A pure cache diff here would have reported zero
language modules unconditionally, i.e. a new vacuous guard. This probe
unions `module.registerHooks({ load })` with the cache diff, and each
entry carries a non-vacuity anchor and a module floor so an empty result
fails loudly.

Verified load-bearing: adding a top-level
`await import('../core/ingestion/languages/index.js')` to
`src/mcp/resources.ts` and rebuilding turns `dist/mcp/server.js` red with
70+ named offenders, while the `local-backend` and `cli/mcp` cases stay
green — which is bypass (a) demonstrated directly. The old guard passed
that poisoned tree entirely.

* docs(lbug): drop the unreproducible 9p multiplier from the csv-generator note (#2802 review P3-2)

The comment justifying why `csv-generator.js` is NOT lazy-imported carried
a hard "~40x" figure for how much a 9p mount inflates per-file ESM
resolve. Three independent measurements during review produced ~40x, ~7.3x
and ~30x, so the multiplier is not a reproducible quantity and had no
business being stated as one in a durable comment.

Reworked so the STRUCTURAL argument leads and the numbers only support it.
That argument is what actually settles the question and it does not rot:
`core/search/bm25-index.ts` statically imports `normalizeFtsText` from
`csv-generator.js`, and `local-backend.ts` reaches bm25-index through a
dynamic import on the FTS query path — so deferring here relocates the
cost to first query rather than removing it. Both verified again at
`bm25-index.ts:15` and `local-backend.ts:2756`.

Remaining figures are re-measured, attributed to a date and issue, and
labelled by filesystem: ~1.6 ms marginal (median of 45 cold imports on
local disk) versus ~50 ms for the same import on a network mount, stated
as environment-bound rather than as a property of the module. The
provider-registry cost is given as "several hundred modules" — the static
walk, the runtime hook, and the reviewer's probe each counted it
differently (375 / 439 / 407), so no single number was picked to go stale.
The old "226 modules" was real but counted only the `languages/` subtree
and undercounted the win.

Also repoints the trailing reference to the guard's new home at
`test/integration/mcp/startup-language-closure.test.ts` (same comment
block, inseparable from this rewrite).

* fix(mcp): stop the empty-ascent note asserting a fact an undecodable summary contradicts (#2802 review P2-2)

The note claimed "this is a property of the persisted summaries" whenever
the descent resolved callees and none carried a return-flow. But
`decodeCallSummary` never throws by design: a version-skewed (`2|r:1`),
corrupt (`1|r:zz`), or NULL `reason` yields no entry, which was
indistinguishable from a cleanly-decoded empty summary. So the note could
assert "no formal parameter is recorded as flowing to its return value"
about a callee whose CALL_SUMMARY actually records `p0 -> return`.
`meta.pdg.hasCallSummary` is a plain boolean and stores no codec version,
so nothing else caught it.

`calleesWithReturnFlow` now reports three outcomes instead of two —
flowing, decoded-empty, and undecodable — and the undecodable count is
threaded through the descent to the note. When it is non-zero the note
says so and points at a re-index; when every summary decoded, the
persisted-summaries claim is kept and now explicitly conditioned on that.

Soundness is unchanged: an undecodable summary still licenses no ascent
and never enters the return-flowing set, so the ascent path is
byte-identical. Only the note's wording moves.

Tests drive all three undecodable forms through the mock and assert the
false claim is gone, the remedy is reported, and the ascent is still
withheld. A companion assertion pins that the all-decoded case KEEPS the
persisted-summaries claim, so the fix cannot degenerate into deleting the
sentence. Verified load-bearing: reverting the source alone fails 6 of 34.

Impact analysis: `calleesWithReturnFlow` upstream LOW (2 callers, both in
this file); `assemblePdgImpactResult` upstream LOW (1 caller).

* test(pdg): cover every chained-receiver shape and pin the inference gap (#2802 review P2-1, P3-1)

The fixture proved chained receiver calls reach `BasicBlock.calleeIds`
using exactly one receiver form — a local `const`. That is the shape that
works, so a single-shape fixture implied general support the resolver does
not have. This repo has been burned by that before: a drop-count gate
blind to fixed shapes.

Measuring nine forms against the real pipeline also corrects how the gap
was originally characterised. It is NOT local-versus-field. An annotated
field resolves fine, including the constructor-assigned variant:

  private p: Outer = new Outer();          -> both links
  private p: Outer; this.p = new Outer();  -> both links
  private p = new Outer();                 -> EMPTY CELL
  private p; this.p = new Outer();         -> EMPTY CELL

The discriminator is the type ANNOTATION. When a field's type must be
inferred from its initializer the whole `calleeIds` cell empties — so even
`Outer.inner`, an ordinary named-receiver call, is lost, and the
inter-procedural descent cannot cross the boundary at all. Pre-existing;
independent of #2802, which does not touch receiver resolution.

The fixture is now table-driven over seven working forms (local const,
local in a method, annotated field, ctor-assigned annotated, ctor-param
assigned, call-result receiver, three-link chain) plus the two
inference-typed forms, each row carrying its expected chain-link ids.

Assertions moved from substring to exact id membership, split with the
production `splitCalleeIds` reader — so `Inner.compute` can no longer be
satisfied by `Inner.computeExtra` or `OtherInner.compute`, which matters
because the descent keys on exact ids for span and CALL_SUMMARY lookup.

The two known-gap rows are pinned with `it.fails` plus a hard assertion on
the exact gap-row set, so a resolver fix turns them red instead of passing
silently, and an anti-vacuity guard requires every shape to match exactly
one block — without it a drifted fixture matching zero blocks would let
`it.fails` pass for the wrong reason. Proven by mutation: relabelling a
working row as a known gap fails both pins.

* fix(mcp): qualify the empty-ascent note when the examined callee set is incomplete (#2802 review P2-4)

The note asserted "none of the N resolved callees carry a CALL_SUMMARY
return-flow", and on the all-decoded path that this is "a property of the
persisted summaries". Both are universal claims over the callees the
descent actually examined, and two mechanisms can leave that set
incomplete without the note saying so:

  1. Budget truncation. The descent stops on depth/limit/node-cap, so a
     callee that DOES carry a return-flow can sit in a hop never reached.
     A 4-deep chain reported "none of the 3 resolved callees" while link 4
     held the only summary.
  2. Emit-time capping. When a block's `calleeIds` cell was capped,
     `splitCalleeIds` strips CALLEES_TRUNCATED_SENTINEL, so the dropped
     callees are invisible to both the scan and the counters — even though
     the callgraph bridge in this same file already treats such a block as
     callee-incomplete.

Add `calleeIdsWereTruncated`, the counterpart to the sentinel strip, read
from the raw cell before splitting so a block whose entire list was capped
away still raises the flag. Thread it through the descent to the note.
Case 1 needs no new plumbing — the aggregate `truncated` is already on the
input object.

Using the aggregate rather than a descent-only flag is deliberate: seed
truncation and intra-BFS depth truncation also shrink the initial slice, so
their callees are never gathered either. It is a sound superset that never
under-hedges.

When either mechanism fired, one clause naming the reasons is appended and
the whole-slice assertion softens to "every summary examined decoded … a
property of those summaries". When the set is complete both branches stay
byte-identical to before, so this does not become a blanket hedge.

Tests pin truncated, untruncated, emit-capped-alone, both-mechanisms, and
undecodable+truncated, asserting the truncation premise rather than
assuming it. Verified load-bearing: reverting the source alone fails 6 of
42, and the HEAD note printed in those failures is the bug verbatim.

Impact analysis: `assemblePdgImpactResult`, `calleeIdsByBlock`,
`interproceduralDescent` all upstream LOW; every caller is in this file and
`runImpactPDG`'s exported signature is unchanged.

* fix(mcp): stop the empty-ascent note calling call-site references "resolved callees" (#2802 review P3-7)

The note printed "none of the N resolved callees carry a CALL_SUMMARY
return-flow (no formal parameter is recorded as flowing to its return
value)". N counted the raw `BasicBlock.calleeIds` cell, which carries ids
`resolveCalleeSpans` never enters — out-of-repo targets, interface
methods, and the `Class:` id a `new X()` emits. On the chained-receiver
fixture that inflated N from 1 to 3.

Two defects, both in the wording rather than the arithmetic: "resolved"
implies a symbol-table lookup that did not happen for those ids, and the
parenthetical asserted a FORMALS-level property about symbols never
resolved to a body.

Reworded rather than re-seeded, deliberately. `calleesWithReturnFlow`
scans the RAW id set, so the claim "none of these carries a return-flow"
is exactly established for all N — the scan really did check the `Class:`
id. Re-seeding N from the resolved spans would make the sentence quantify
over a strict SUBSET of what was checked, silently dropping the
un-enterable references from a claim that genuinely covers them, and would
desync N from `calleesUndecodable`, which is derived from the same scan
population.

  none of the N resolved callees carry ...
  none of the N call-site callee references carry ...

and the formals parenthetical is dropped. The note gets shorter, not
longer. `calleesResolved` is renamed `calleeReferences` end-to-end
(file-local; nothing outside referenced it), and the descent's return-type
doc — which called them "callee symbols the descent resolved" and
reinforced the wrong reading — now states that un-enterable ids ride the
same cell, are scanned, and are never entered.

The `> 0` gate is unchanged, so no slice that previously produced the note
stops producing one. A test pins that explicitly: an all-un-enterable cell
resolves no span, takes no hop, and emits no ascent sentence despite a
non-zero count — so a future re-seeding cannot silently move when the note
fires.

Tests also pin the quoted number and singular/plural against a mixed cell,
with a discriminator asserting `reachableBlocks` is byte-identical while
the count moves 1 -> 3. Verified load-bearing: reverting the source alone
fails 6 of 7 new tests, printing the finding verbatim.

Impact analysis: `assemblePdgImpactResult` and `interproceduralDescent`
upstream LOW, sole caller `runImpactPDG` in the same file; exported
signature unchanged.

* test(mcp): pin cross-hop callee accumulation and the mixed return-flow contract (#2802 review P2-5)

Every case in this file drove a single hop, so the Set union the descent
performs across hops (`calleeReferencesSeen` / `calleesReturnFlowingSeen`)
was never proven to accumulate rather than overwrite — a one-hop descent
cannot tell the two apart. And although a sibling commit added a
three-id cell, none of those ids return-flowed, so the
"some callees flow, some do not" boundary was entirely unpinned.

Extends the mock with a `secondSummary` knob that drives a genuine second
hop: `helper2` is named only in `helper`'s own body block, so the descent
must cross a second boundary to reach it. Three mock handlers are made
faithful to the parameters they already bind — `calleeIdsByBlock` now
routes on the asked `$ids`, and the CALL_SUMMARY scan and span resolve
answer per asked id — which is what makes a second callee answerable at
all. Existing cases are behavior-identical.

Five tests: the union count across two hops; a return-flow on hop 0
surviving a later empty hop; a return-flow found only on hop 1; mixed
callees in one examined set going silent rather than partial; and a
flowing callee alongside an undecodable sibling staying silent including
the decode remedy.

The mixed case pins a deliberate contract rather than proposing one. The
production condition is `calleesReturnFlowing === 0`, so partial coverage
is reported as silence. A reviewer considered and dropped "report partial
coverage" as a product change; this makes flipping it a conscious edit
instead of an accident.

Verified load-bearing against three separate source mutations: accumulating
only on hop 0 (2 fail), each hop overwriting instead of unioning (3 fail),
and flipping the gate to partial-coverage reporting (4 fail). In all three
every PRE-EXISTING test still passed — which is the finding restated as
evidence.

Test-only; `pdg-impact.ts` is byte-identical to HEAD.

* docs(mcp): consolidate the empty-ascent rationale to one canonical site (#2802 review P3-6)

The "keyed on observed CALL_SUMMARY data, never on the criterion's
language" rationale was restated in full at four comment sites. It exists
because a reviewer asked "why not just look up the language?", so it has to
stay findable — but not four times.

The canonical explanation now lives in `interproceduralDescent`'s
return-type doc, where the counters are actually computed, organised as
POPULATION (why the raw `calleeIds` tally is the right set to quantify
over) and OBSERVED DATA, NEVER THE CRITERION'S LANGUAGE (the full
answer, including the producer-change argument and the no-language-naming
rule). The other three sites keep only what is locally load-bearing and
point here.

Deliberately preserved, because each carries a non-obvious fact: why an
undecodable summary licenses no ascent, why the aggregate `truncated` is
used rather than a descent-only flag, and the raw-id-tally population
argument. Net comment delta -11 lines.

The reviewer also flagged the local/field naming asymmetry
(`calleeReferencesSeen` vs `calleeReferences`). Keeping the suffix, with a
comment recording why so it is not re-raised: the premise that every other
local matches its field is true, but those locals are identity-returned,
whereas these are `Set<string>` accumulators returned as `.size`. Dropping
the suffix would give one identifier two types in one file — a `Set` at the
accumulation site and a `number` where the note does arithmetic and
pluralisation on it ~900 lines away. The Set-ness is also load-bearing: the
dedup is why a callee invoked from two hops is not double-counted, which
is what makes the note's count correct.

Comment-only. Verified mechanically: every added and removed line in
`git diff -U0` matches a comment pattern, so the note's template literals
are untouched and its rendered text is byte-identical. 89 tests unchanged.

* refactor(mcp): collapse the ascent plumbing accreted across 13 fix commits

Quality cleanup, no behavior change. Four independent review passes
converged on the same root cause: thirteen commits each fixed one review
finding in isolation, and the ascent facts grew one loose field at a time
until 62% of the changed region was comments explaining plumbing.

Five changes:

  - `calleeIdsFromBlocks` deleted. Zero call sites anywhere in src/ or
    test/ — already dead on main, and this branch had edited it to keep it
    compiling. Its only reference was a stale `{@link}` in a neighbour's
    doc, now rewritten to stand alone.

  - `parseCalleeIdsCell` replaces the two-pass read. `calleeIdsWereTruncated`
    and `splitCalleeIds` were splitting the same cell on adjacent lines,
    which measured ~2x the parse cost (0.82 -> 1.59 ms at a realistic hop,
    57.7 -> 92.7 ms at the per-statement site cap) and was a second
    independent encoding of the sentinel format — exactly what
    `splitCalleeIds` was extracted to prevent. One pass classifies as it
    walks; `splitCalleeIds` stays as a wrapper so its two external callers
    are untouched. The single-use `export` is gone.

  - `AscentCoverage` replaces four fields threaded through three
    signatures. ~12 declaration sites become 3, and the canonical rationale
    now lives on the type by construction — which is why the earlier
    doc-consolidation commit was needed at all.

  - `calleesReturnFlowing` becomes a boolean. Its only reads were
    `=== 0`, twice; it cost a Set sized to every callee in the slice plus a
    per-hop union loop. The flag is set inside the existing
    `returnFlowing.size > 0` branch — equivalent, since the cross-hop union
    is non-empty iff some hop's was.

  - The duplicated empty-ascent note head is collapsed to one gate and one
    head with per-arm tails. Both arms had been edited in lockstep twice in
    this branch's own history.

The rendered note text is byte-identical. Verified structurally and then
empirically: both expressions reconstructed standalone and diffed across
the full cross product of references x returnFlowing x undecodable x
truncated x listTruncated — 288 combinations, 0 mismatches.

Net -53 lines. 102 tests pass unedited; the unused-symbol lint warning is
gone.

* test(mcp): parallelise the startup probes, drop a redundant pin, name the mock knobs

Quality cleanup from the same review passes. The set of verified behaviors
is unchanged except where noted.

**Startup probes run concurrently.** `spawnSync` blocks the event loop and
vitest runs a file's tests in order, so the three probes strictly
serialised. Launching all three with async `spawn` in `beforeAll` and
asserting over the collected outcomes cuts the file from ~12.7 s to ~3.9 s
wall (-69%). Every promise is caught before `Promise.all`, so all three
children are reaped and failures report per entry rather than surfacing
only the first rejection. Preserved and each proven by mutation: the
missing-dist error names its entry, a raised module floor fails only its
own row, and a bogus anchor still reports the loaded-module count.

**The two `it.fails` rows are removed.** They pinned the inference-typed
receiver gap that the strict `toEqual` pin beside them already covers —
and they were the weaker of the two, because `it.fails` passes when the
body throws for ANY reason, including `idsFor`'s own non-vacuity guard. A
renamed fixture marker would have kept them green on a rotted premise. The
strict pin is self-diffing and was verified load-bearing on its own:
pointing a known-gap marker at a resolving shape fails it with the two
newly-present ids listed. The file header now carries the gap's durable
description.

**The ascent-note mock takes options objects.** `descentExec` and `run`
had grown to five and seven positional parameters in the order five agents
added them, so call sites read `run(FILE, true, null, 3, false, undefined,
null)` — several carrying `undefined` purely to reach a later argument. All
34 call sites are converted; nine that used only defaults are now bare
`run(file)`. No knob renamed — they are orthogonal and correctly named.
Code lines are exactly neutral (353 -> 353); the win is at the call sites.

Also refreshes five comments that still described `calleesReturnFlowingSeen`
and the two-branch note, both of which the preceding commit replaced.

102 unit and 10 integration tests pass; test count moves 9 -> 7 in the
chained-receiver file, exactly the two redundant rows.

* feat(mcp): publish return-value-ascent coverage on the PDG impact result

`impact(mode:'pdg')` computed four facts about ascent coverage and used
them exactly once — to interpolate an English sentence. They never reached
the result object, so an agent consuming this MCP output could only ask
"was the ascent complete, and if not why" by regexing prose. The cost was
already demonstrated: a pure rewording commit earlier in this branch broke
~30 assertions and would have silently broken any consumer keying on the
old phrase.

Adds `pdgEvidence.ascent`:

    referencesScanned        how many call-site callee references were scanned
    returnFlowFound          did the ascent fire anywhere in this slice
    undecodableSummaryCount  summaries the codec could not decode
    examinedComplete         was the examined set the whole callee list
    incompleteReasons        'traversal-truncated' | 'callee-list-capped'
    callSummaryLayerPresent  false => pre-FU-C (v3) index

Nested under `pdgEvidence` because that is the established counts-and-
classification namespace, and `composeUnifiedPdgImpactResult` already
spreads it, so the member survives the unified compose untouched.

`incompleteReasons` carries CODES, following the existing
`truncatedByReasons: ('depth'|'limit')[]` precedent. The prose clause and
the structured field now render from one array computed once, so an agent
branching on codes and a human reading the note cannot disagree, and a
third reason becomes a rendering decision rather than a contract change.

Two shape decisions worth recording. `callSummaryLayerPresent` exists
because without it a v3 index publishes `referencesScanned: N,
returnFlowFound: false`, which reads as "these callees record no
return-flow" when the truth is "the layer that records it is absent" — the
note already distinguishes those, and the structured surface must not be
less honest than the prose. And the field is ABSENT rather than zeroed when
the descent never ran (upstream slices): "nothing was scanned" is a
different fact from "we scanned and found nothing".

`pdgResultVersion` stays 2. The documented trigger is a BREAKING change to
the result shape; this removes nothing, renames nothing, and changes no
existing field's meaning. Confirmed mechanically: zero top-level key drift
across 2304 cases. The historical v2 bump was for changing an existing
field's semantics (startLine 0- to 1-based).

The note prose is byte-identical, proven across the same 2304 cases with a
negative control — perturbing one character of the phrase table produces 60
drifts, so the harness demonstrably detects what it asserts. 14 new tests
cover the structured surface and all 14 fail when the source is reverted,
while the 54 prose tests pass unchanged.

* test(helpers): share one module-load probe, and fix two guards that passed on broken builds

Three tests independently spawned a child node process to inspect what a
built `dist/` entry loads, duplicating the REPO_ROOT derivation, the probe
source, the missing-dist guard, the spawn with NODE_OPTIONS cleared, the
status-vs-signal rendering, and the payload parse. The newest copy was also
the only correct one, so the next author had 2-in-3 odds of copying a
weaker probe.

The two older probes diff `require.cache` only, which is structurally blind
to the first-party ESM `dist/**` graph. That is not theoretical — both were
demonstrated passing on genuinely broken builds:

  - Severing `dist/cli/mcp.js -> stdio-context.js` (a pure ESM change)
    leaves the require.cache diff EMPTY, so `import-closure.test.ts`'s two
    assertions reduce to `[].filter(...) === []`. It reported 2 passed on a
    severed graph.
  - Severing `registry -> swift/query.js` leaves 76 unrelated CJS entries,
    which satisfied `registry-import-closure.test.ts`'s indirect guard. The
    Swift half of its headline had gone vacuous and it reported 1 passed.

Both now fail on those same builds, naming the missing anchor.

`test/helpers/module-load-probe.ts` unions the ESM `registerHooks({ load })`
channel with the cache diff, probes entries concurrently, and makes
non-vacuity STRUCTURAL: `anchor` and `minModules` are required fields and
the helper throws when either fails. A vacuous probe is a harness failure,
not a silently green test, so it cannot be forgotten. Forbidden patterns
and remedy text stay per-test — the harness is the shared part, the policy
is not.

Also fixes `toRepoRelativePosix` resolving non-absolute specifiers against
`process.cwd()`, and dedupes modules a CJS-from-ESM import reported once
per channel.

Faster despite doing more: the registry file goes 12.4s -> 6.75s, because
`spawnSync` burned the parent thread polling while the child loaded native
grammars. `import-closure` drops to one spawn from two.

The `local-backend.js` entry is kept although its closure is currently a
strict subset of `server.js`'s: that is an observation, not an invariant.
If `server.js` ever stops eagerly reaching the local backend, the server
probe stays green while the module #2802 actually changed goes unobserved —
and now that anchors are mandatory, that entry is what pins `pdg-impact.js`.

* docs(lbug): trim the csv-generator note and fix the claim it got wrong

Two reviewers split on this comment: one wanted it cut to the structural
argument, the other said a comment is the right depth for documenting a
rejected change since there is no invariant to guard. Both are right, so
it stays a comment and gets shorter — 13 lines to 6.

Trimmed because it had already taken two corrections (an unreproducible
"~40x" figure, and a pointer to a test file that no longer exists), and its
tail had drifted from its own guard: the comment said "several hundred
modules, ~150 ms" where `startup-language-closure.test.ts` says "~226
extra modules and ~130 ms". Two numbers for one fact. That tail is
documented better in the guard's own header, so deleting it loses nothing.

It also stated the load-bearing claim inaccurately. The old text said
bm25-index imports `normalizeFtsText` "from here" — but `lbug-adapter.ts`
neither exports nor re-exports it; the only occurrence of the identifier in
this file WAS the comment. Anyone verifying would have grepped, found
nothing, and concluded the note was stale. Now names `csv-generator.js`
explicitly, re-verified at `bm25-index.ts:15` (static) and
`local-backend.ts:2756` (dynamic, on the FTS query path).

Comment-only, proven two ways: every changed line matches a comment
pattern, and stripping all `//` lines from HEAD and from the working tree
yields byte-identical text.

* test(helpers): extract the temp-repo lifecycle, collapsing five hand-rolled cleanups into one

Four cfg integration tests each hand-rolled a `tmpDirs` array, a
mkdtemp-and-register step, and an `afterAll` rmSync. It is actually five
registrations across six creation sites — `pipeline-pdg.test.ts` keeps a
second pool for its C-family fixtures.

Seeding genuinely varies four ways (recursive cpSync, single copyFileSync,
inline mkdir+writeFile, and nothing at all), so a fixture-copier helper
would have fitted about half the sites and made things worse. Extracted the
LIFECYCLE instead — mkdtemp, register, afterAll cleanup — which is
byte-identical at all five registrations and is the correctness-critical
part. `dir()` returns an empty registered directory for callers that seed
themselves; `fromFixture()` covers the common case. That fits 6/6.

The duplication had already produced a latent defect: `cFamilyTmpDirs` was
cleaned by TWO `afterAll` blocks, harmless only because `rmSync` was called
with `force: true`. Now one hook.

`createTempDirPool` is a function called from each test file's module scope
rather than a top-level hook in the helper, because under ESM caching a
module-level `afterAll` would register once, against whichever file
imported it first. That hazard is documented in the helper.

Raw line count is roughly neutral (-44 across the tests, +62 for the
helper, 29 of which are the rationale). The win is that a cleanup invariant
went from five copies to one.

Cleanup verified empirically, including the failure path: a throwaway suite
whose `beforeAll` throws still has its directory removed, and every
temp directory created by the four migrated files is gone after a run.
46 tests pass across the four files.

* test(resolvers): pin the inference-typed field receiver gap at the resolver level

The gap was pinned only in a PDG test, asserting on `BasicBlock.calleeIds`
behind the full `--pdg` pipeline. But it is a resolver fact: when a class
field's type must be inferred from its initializer, chained receiver calls
resolve to nothing. Whoever closes it will be working in the resolver
suite and would have got a red CFG/PDG test with no resolver-side signal.

Asserts CALLS edges directly, alongside `python-constructor-field-receiver.test.ts`.
Nine receiver shapes run the identical statement; seven resolve, two do not:

    const o = new Outer()                     resolves
    private p: Outer = new Outer()            resolves
    private p: Outer;  this.p = new Outer()   resolves
    private p: Outer;  this.p = p  (ctor arg) resolves
    constructor(private p: Outer) {}          resolves
    makeOuter().inner().compute()             resolves
    o.inner().mid().compute()  (three links)  resolves
    private p = new Outer()                   NO EDGES
    private p;  this.p = new Outer()          NO EDGES

Two things the fixture establishes that the PDG-side pin could not. The
discriminator is the type ANNOTATION, not local-versus-field — the
parameter-property form resolves fine. And the initializer is NOT invisible
to the resolver: `new Outer()` still emits its own constructor CALLS edge,
byte-identical to the annotated twin. Only the initializer-to-field-type
binding is missing, which narrows where a fix belongs.

Assertions key on exact node ids rather than names, because `compute` is
ambiguous across two classes and keying on the source name collides with
`Object.prototype.constructor`.

No `describe.skip` and no `it.fails` — the latter passes when the body
throws for ANY reason, so it can go green on a rotted premise. The gap is
pinned as its explicit current value, which self-diffs: simulating the fix
fails one test showing the two newly-resolved ids, and renaming a fixture
symbol fails the non-vacuity guard.

Runtime is comparable to the PDG-side pin (~9-11s, both dominated by
worker startup), so this is an altitude and scope win, not a speed one.

* test(mcp): replace the extension sweeps with a stronger language-agnosticism pin

Two `it.each` sweeps over nine file extensions asserted that the
empty-ascent caveat was present (or absent) for each. They looked like the
pin for the property the whole change exists for — `pdg-impact.ts` must
name no language and its output must not vary by extension — but they were
the weakest available form of it.

They asserted substring presence/absence, so a language dependence that
ADDS text while leaving the caveat intact passes them. Demonstrated, not
assumed: injecting a `.py`-only hedge inside the caveat sentence and
replaying the two sweeps verbatim against that source gives 18 passed. The
byte-identity test beside them caught it.

So the sweeps are deleted and the identity test carries the property alone,
hardened in two ways:

  - Two rows instead of one, covering BOTH sides of the caveat gate. The
    silent (return-flow present) branch previously had no identity
    counterpart at all — nine runs proving one fact, with nothing checking
    that its rendering was extension-invariant.
  - The fingerprint spans the note AND the reachable blocks, not just the
    note. Strictly more than the sweeps verified.

Entailment is exact: identity across the extension set, plus the two
existing single-extension content assertions, gives "every extension gets
the caveat" and "no extension gets it". Reducing a sweep to one extension
was rejected because it reproduces an assertion already present verbatim.

Also converts the incompleteness block from six near-identical bodies to a
3-row premise table crossed with two assertions. Each row now names the
exact phrase set its clause must contain, so presence and absence are
asserted together — which adds three checks the longhand version lacked
(the budget row now also proves the emit-cap phrase is absent). And three
tests that re-rendered one fixture to make one assertion each are hoisted
to a single render.

97 tests, down from 116: -18 sweep cases, -2 from the hoist, +1 identity
row. No assertion was lost; several were added.

Verified by injection: a `.py`-only note change fails the identity pin,
and a dependence in the shared hop sentence fails BOTH rows, confirming the
second row is load-bearing rather than decorative.

* perf(mcp): lazy-import syncGroup so MCP startup skips the group extractor closure

`core/group/service.ts` statically imported `./sync.js`, which pulls all six
contract extractors, five of which statically import the native `tree-sitter`
binding. That put the whole parser stack on every MCP server start, for a
server that never syncs.

Only `groupSync` needs it. The other seven group tools — `group_list`,
`group_impact`, `group_query`, `group_contracts`, `group_status`,
`group_trace`, `group_context` — do not, and now never load it. `syncGroup`
has a single call site, already inside an `async` method, so this is a lazy
`await import(...)` at that call site and nothing else: no signature change,
no async ripple, no change to `local-backend.ts`.

The pattern is already established on this exact module — `cli/group.ts`'s
sync command lazy-imports `sync.js` the same way. `service.ts` was the
outlier.

Measured on a native filesystem (overlayfs; /workspace is a 9p mount that
inflates ESM resolve, so it is not a valid measurement surface), 5 cold runs,
medians:

  dist/mcp/server.js              521 ms -> 133 ms   (-75%)
  dist/mcp/local/local-backend.js 453 ms -> 66 ms    (-85%)
  tree-sitter modules at both entries: 11 -> 0

Same defect class as #2802, which cut the language-provider registry from the
same startup path; this is what remained.

The cost is moved rather than deleted: the first `group_sync` call now pays
the module load. That is the right trade — `group_sync` is already a
long-running operation, and sessions that never sync pay nothing.

* test(mcp): guard MCP startup against the group extractor closure returning

Sibling forbidden-pattern case in the #2802 startup guard, reusing the
concurrent probes it already collects — no new spawn, no new harness.

Asserts that none of `dist/mcp/server.js`, `dist/cli/mcp.js`, or
`dist/mcp/local/local-backend.js` loads a `core/group/extractors/` module or
the native `tree-sitter` package. The parser is matched by package prefix
rather than a bare substring, so a source file that merely mentions the word
can neither satisfy nor trip it.

Verified load-bearing rather than assumed: restoring the static
`import { syncGroup }` in `core/group/service.ts` and rebuilding turns
`dist/mcp/server.js` red and names all seven offenders —
http-route, grpc, thrift, topic, include, manifest and workspace extractors.
Reverted and re-confirmed green.

* perf(mcp): keep the analyze-only CFG closure off MCP server startup (#2802 review)

`mcp/local/pdg-impact.ts` imported `CALLEES_TRUNCATED_SENTINEL` and
`CALLEE_ID_SEP` from `core/ingestion/cfg/emit.ts`. ESM evaluates a module to
import any binding from it, so those two strings dragged the whole analyze-only
CFG closure into every MCP server start.

Measured against a clean build, per entry point: 8 modules — `emit`,
`reaching-defs`, `reaching-defs-graph`, `control-dependence`, `post-dominators`,
`synthetic-escape`, `call-site-harvest`, `reaching-def-reason-codec` — present at
`dist/mcp/server.js`, `dist/mcp/local/local-backend.js` and
`dist/mcp/http-transport.js`.

Same defect class as the language-provider closure this branch already removed,
and the guard could not see it: `FORBIDDEN_RE` covers `core/ingestion/languages/`
and `FORBIDDEN_GROUP_RE` covers `core/group/extractors/|node_modules/tree-sitter`,
neither of which matches `core/ingestion/cfg/`.

The format constants move to a new LEAF module `cfg/callee-cell-format.ts` that
imports nothing; `emit.ts` re-exports both names so every existing importer is
untouched, and producer and consumer still resolve to one definition — the drift
the shared constant exists to prevent stays impossible.

Deleted, not deferred — the same bar #2802 held its own csv-generator proposal
to. After: cfg modules at startup 8 -> 2, and both survivors
(`callee-cell-format`, `reaching-def-reason-codec`) are leaves that import
nothing. Totals: `server.js` 387 -> 380, `local-backend.js` 163 -> 156,
`http-transport.js` 523 -> 516.

* fix(mcp): stop pdgEvidence.ascent claiming a completeness it cannot have (#2802 review)

`examinedComplete` is the field a consumer reads to decide whether
`returnFlowFound: false` is a whole-slice claim. It could be published `true`
over a callee set the descent never finished examining — the exact false
all-clear the field was added to prevent.

Root cause: `bfsReachableBlocks` sets `truncatedByDepth` when its frontier is
still non-empty at the budget, but both call sites inside `interproceduralDescent`
folded only the row-limit flag and dropped the depth flag. The top-level intra
BFS's copy of that same flag was already propagated, so the asymmetry was
unintended — one `if`-pair folding limit-but-not-depth, within a merge that
already folds the node cap too.

Reproduced at `maxDepth: 3`, the shipped default: a criterion calling a helper
whose body is a 5-block dependence chain, with the return-flowing callee on the
block past the clamp. Result reported `truncated: undefined`,
`examinedComplete: true`, `incompleteReasons: []` and an unqualified universal
note sentence.

Fixed by propagating the dropped flags rather than inventing a parallel channel:
`intraDepthBudget` is documented in-file as the SAME clamp the top-level intra
BFS applies, and that one's depth truncation is already result-level. So the
result's own `truncated`/`truncatedBy` were under-reporting for the same reason,
and both surfaces are corrected together.

Four further honesty fixes to the same published record:

- Blocks reached only by the U-C4 ascent went into `reachable` but never
  `hopReached`, so their `calleeIds` cells were never scanned, never counted, and
  could not raise `callee-list-capped`. They are slice blocks; they now enter the
  hop set and get the same treatment as every other one.
- `pdgEvidence.ascent` was absent on the empty-slice early return even though the
  descent had already run and scanned, contradicting the "present iff the descent
  ran" contract this branch itself added to `tools.ts`. Both exits now classify
  through one shared helper so they cannot disagree.
- A block carrying call sites in `callees` but no resolved ids in `calleeIds`
  (the whole-file case where `emit.ts` has no fileMap) silently shrank the
  population while `examinedComplete` still reported `true`. That now raises a
  third reason, `callee-ids-unrecorded`.
- `referencesScanned` is a distinct-callee tally and both surfaces described it as
  a call-site count. Field name kept — a rename is breaking at
  `pdgResultVersion: 2` — and the prose corrected instead.

`PdgAscentIncompleteReason` gains a member, which is additive, so
`pdgResultVersion` stays 2. Visible output change worth knowing: slices whose
callee chain outruns `maxDepth` now report `truncatedBy: 'depth'` where they
previously reported none, and a repo with id-less call sites now reports
`examinedComplete: false`. Both are strictly more honest.

Every behavioural change carries a mutation proof — revert the source, watch the
new test go red, restore. One exception is documented inline rather than faked:
the ascent-side fold cannot be observed independently, because the re-seed shares
the caller's `visited` set and so can only reach past the budget when the
traversal that covered that closure was already cut and had already raised a flag.

Suite: 49 -> 59 tests.

* test(mcp): anchor each import-closure policy on the edge it polices (#2802 review)

`module-load-probe.ts` makes non-vacuity structural via a required `anchor` — but
the anchor was one per ENTRY while `startup-language-closure.test.ts` now runs TWO
independent policies. The group-extractor policy added in 83e8cf7c5 therefore had
no anchor of its own, and one of its three rows was already vacuous: `cli/mcp.js`
loads four leaf modules and reaches no `core/group/` module at all, so its group
assertion could not fail for any policy-related reason while its
`dist/mcp/stdio-context.js` anchor stayed green.

Proven, not argued. `dist/mcp/local/local-backend.js` is the only static importer
of `core/group/service.js` in the whole build; severing that one edge — the exact
next lazy-load step — and re-probing:

  OLD shape (anchor per entry):  server 385, http-transport 521, local-backend 161
                                 reaches group/service = false, group offenders 0
                                 -> GREEN on all three
  NEW shape (anchor per policy): -> RED on all three, each naming the missing
                                    dist/core/group/service.js

Counts fell only 387->385 and 163->161, so `minModules` was structurally blind to
the severance; the anchor is the only thing that catches it.

`anchor` accepts `string | readonly string[]` and every listed anchor must load.
Existing single-anchor call sites are unchanged. `anchorsOf()` lets the group
`it.each` DERIVE its entries by filtering on the group anchor, with a test pinning
that derivation, so the policy cannot silently register zero cases. `cli/mcp.js`
is dropped from the group policy — it cannot honestly carry that anchor — and the
doc-comment now states the invariant: an anchor is per-POLICY, not per-entry.

Also:

- `mcp/http-transport.js` gets a row. It is the largest startup entry (516
  modules) and `src/cli/mcp.ts` imports it directly rather than through
  `server.js`, so nothing about the server row constrained it. Measured clean
  today; the gap was coverage, not a broken claim.
- The three spawn-based closure tests are registered in `SPAWN_CLI`, so the
  Windows-safety plumbing this branch wrote for them (POSIX normalisation,
  `pathToFileURL`, `NODE_OPTIONS` clearing, array-form `spawn`) is finally
  exercised on the Windows/macOS matrix. Measured cost ~11.7s on Linux; budget
  ~60s on Windows against a 25-minute job.
- `PROBE_TARGET` now wins over `extraEnv`, which was spread last and could have
  silently redirected a probe while `anchor`/`minModules` stayed keyed on `entry`.
- The child's JSON payload is validated through a type predicate instead of a bare
  `as string[]`, and the spawn timeout escalates SIGTERM to SIGKILL so a child
  stalled in native code is reaped rather than orphaned.
- Recorded baselines re-measured (server 380, local-backend 156, cli/mcp 4) and
  relabelled a snapshot rather than a contract — they moved twice inside this
  branch alone. The subset claim was re-verified exactly: 0 of local-backend's 156
  modules are absent from server's 380.

* test(helpers): survive a failing temp-dir removal instead of leaking the rest (#2802 review)

`createTempDirPool`'s `afterAll` ran a bare `for (const d of created) fs.rmSync(d, {recursive, force})`.
`force` suppresses only `ENOENT` — not the `EBUSY`/`EPERM`/`ENOTEMPTY` class a
Windows runner produces when a pipeline test still holds a handle — so the FIRST
failure threw out of the loop and leaked every directory registered after it.

Pre-existing: all four hand-rolled cleanups this helper consolidated had the same
shape. But the blast radius is now shared across four consumers, which is exactly
why it is worth fixing at the point of consolidation.

Cleanup is now per-directory best-effort via `removeTempDirs`, plus Node's own
documented mitigation for that error class (`maxRetries: 3, retryDelay: 50`),
which costs nothing on the happy path.

Warn rather than swallow or rethrow, and the reasoning is in the doc comment, not
just here: rethrowing would fail an otherwise green suite from `afterAll` over
housekeeping the OS reclaims anyway, where it reads as a test failure and buries
the real result — a Windows EBUSY on a temp dir is not a defect in the code under
test. Silence is the opposite hazard: a systematic leak would be invisible with
nothing naming the responsible suite. The warning carries the path, and the
`mkdtemp` prefix is per-pool, so it names the suite that made it.

Failure is injected through a scripted remover keyed by path (a Map lookup, so no
`if` in a test body and no dependence on producing a real locked handle). Beyond
the three behavioural pins there is a wiring pin — a nested `describe` creates a
real pool and a sibling `it` declared after it asserts the dirs are gone — so the
tested function cannot drift into "tested helper plus an untested copy of the
loop".

Mutation proof: restoring the abort-on-first-failure loop turns 3 of the 5 tests
red, the throw escaping `removeTempDirs` outright so the third real directory is
never attempted. With the fix, `[first, blocked, last].map(existsSync)` is
`[false, true, false]` — the injected failure survives and the directory after it
is really gone, through the remover that actually ships.

* test(pdg): point the self-diffing receiver pins at #2807, not at this PR (#2802 review)

Both pins named the gap "(#2802 follow-up)". The gap has its own tracking issue —
#2807, "Inference-typed field receivers resolve to no CALLS edges at all" (open,
labeled bug) — and PR #2810 is already open against it. As written, after merge
the gap was discoverable only by reading a KNOWN GAP marker inside a test file,
not from the issue tracker.

Both describe names now read "(known gap: #2807)" and both KNOWN GAP test names
carry the number. #2802 is kept only as provenance: the gap was FOUND during
#2802 work but is pre-existing and independent of it.

Each header gains an explicit "this pin is self-diffing: it will go red on
purpose" section naming #2807 with its exact title, noting #2810 is open against
it at the time of writing, and stating that the pin asserts the gap EXISTS — so
closing #2807 fails it by design, and the correct response is to update the
expected value, not to relax the assertion. The same note is repeated inline
above each KNOWN GAP test, where a maintainer editing it will actually see it.

No pin is weakened. Both deliberately reject `it.fails` in favour of exact
`toEqual` assertions with a non-vacuity probe, and that design is left untouched.

* test(group): cover the lazy syncGroup import that no test reached (#2802 review)

9ea9676dc turned `GroupService.groupSync`'s `syncGroup` into
`await import('./sync.js')` — this branch's one changed control-flow line in
production code — and nothing exercised it. Every existing test stopped short:
`service.test.ts` returns at the empty-name guard; `group-service-not-found.test.ts`
mocks `loadGroupConfig` to reject and never invokes its `syncGroupMock`;
`group-sync.test.ts` imports `syncGroup` directly, bypassing `GroupService`; and
the startup guard asserts only the negative, that `sync.js` is absent at startup.
`tsc` catches a path typo, but nothing verified the import resolves and hands off
correctly — while every production `group_sync` call goes through that line.

No production change was needed; the reviewed design was sound. This is the
missing coverage.

The happy-path test mocks nothing: it points `GITNEXUS_HOME` at a pool temp dir,
seeds a real `group.yaml`, and calls `groupSync`, so `loadGroupConfig` resolves,
`groupDir` is found, and execution falls through into the REAL `syncGroup`. What
makes a real sync reachable with no indexed repo: an empty registry puts both
members in `missingRepos`, but one declared manifest link still yields
synthetic-UID contracts. It asserts the returned counts AND reads back the
`contracts.json` that real `syncGroup` wrote into `groupDir` via the production
`readContractRegistry`, which pins the option handoff too.

Two further tests use `vi.doMock` to re-evaluate the service against a `sync.js`
whose load throws: one asserts the call rejects with the load failure in its
`cause` chain — so the caller gets a catchable rejection, not a floating
unhandled one — and one asserts both pre-import guards still answer with
`sync.js` unloadable, which is also a structural pin that the module has no
STATIC import of it (a static one would throw at re-import, before any call).

Mutation proofs: pointing the specifier at `./sync-nope.js` turns 2 of 3 red
("Cannot find module .../sync-nope.js ... at GroupService.groupSync
service.ts:349"); aliasing a real-but-wrong export turns 1 red. Restored, all 3
green, and `service.ts` verified byte-identical to HEAD.

Out of scope, stated rather than glossed: the final `isError: true` MCP envelope
is produced above `GroupService` and needs a full `LocalBackend`; the rejection
test is the in-scope half of that claim.

* refactor(mcp): close the gaps a cleanup pass found in the #2802 review fixes

Quality pass over the review-response series (reuse / simplification /
efficiency / altitude). No behaviour change except where noted.

The two that mattered:

- **The cfg/emit fix had no guard.** `FORBIDDEN_RE` covers
  `core/ingestion/languages/` and `FORBIDDEN_GROUP_RE` covers
  `core/group/extractors/|tree-sitter`; neither matches `core/ingestion/cfg/`.
  Because `emit.ts` re-exports the constants, pointing `pdg-impact.ts` back at
  `cfg/emit.js` typechecks identically and silently restores all 7 modules.
  Verified: with the import reverted, `tsc --noEmit` still exits 0 and every
  test stayed green before this commit; after it, 3 rows go red naming the
  offenders. Written as an ALLOWLIST of genuine leaves rather than a denylist of
  the 7 already-suffered modules, because the next regression is a module nobody
  has thought of yet.

- **`FORBIDDEN_GROUP_RE`'s parser matcher was forward-slash only** while both
  sibling probe regexes spell the separator `[\\/]`. Native bindings arrive via
  the `require.cache` channel as absolute paths and `toRepoRelativePosix` only
  normalises paths inside the repo root, so a hoisted `node_modules` renders as
  `…\node_modules\tree-sitter\…` on Windows and matched nothing. The same series
  put this file on the Windows matrix, where that half of the assertion would
  have been vacuous.

Reuse — three re-implementations of existing helpers:

- `removeTempDirRecursive` re-rolled `fs.rmSync` retries; it now delegates to
  `cleanupTempDirSync` (`test-db.ts`), the repo's Windows-lock-aware remover.
  The copy had already drifted on both knobs that matter — 3 retries at 50 ms
  vs 5 at 100–400 ms, and warn-on-everything vs swallow-lock-codes-rethrow-rest
  — which is how one half of a suite goes green-with-a-warning on the same
  `EBUSY` the other half fails on. The per-directory try/warn loop, which is the
  actual fix, is unchanged.
- `errorChainText` re-rolled the cause-chain walk that `causeChain`
  (`src/lib/utils.ts`) exists to be the single copy of — its own doc asks
  callers not to.
- The SIGKILL escalation (a timer, an `unref`, and two `clearTimeout`s) is
  `spawn`'s own `killSignal` option, which Node's `timeout` already delivers.

Simplification and altitude:

- `'callee-ids-unrecorded'` documented ONE of its three producer paths. The
  unnamed common one is a call site that did not RESOLVE — exactly the
  receiver gaps this repo pins (#2807) — so on a real index the reason fires
  broadly, driven by resolution quality rather than a missing `--pdg` layer,
  and "re-run analyze --pdg" is the wrong remedy for it. Doc now names all
  three and states the consequence: `examinedComplete: true` is the strong,
  rare signal.
- The derived policy-entry list was re-pinned against a hand-written 3-element
  literal, reinstating one layer down the list the derivation removes. Now
  asserts the properties that are actually at risk — non-emptiness (a policy
  going silent) and `cli/mcp.js` staying excluded (a row that cannot fail).
- A test fixture spread `ascentBlockCell: 'idless'` and then overrode it to
  `'capped'` in both runs, so the id-less shape never reached the mock while
  reading as though it did.
- `idlessCallSites` is sticky, so its per-row string allocation now
  short-circuits once set.
- Dropped an unused `export` on `CleanupWarner`.

* revert(ci): unregister the module-load closure guards from the Windows matrix

Registering the three `dist/` closure guards in `SPAWN_CLI` turned the Windows
`platform-sensitive 1/3` shard red at the 20-minute watchdog. Baseline
83e8cf7c5 was green on all three shards; a4245119c (which added them) failed
1/3; d0b201442 failed the same way.

It is not the files themselves. On the Windows runner they are among the
cheapest in the suite — `registry-import-closure` 448 ms, `import-closure`
53 ms — and both passed. vitest shards this list by file COUNT, not runtime, so
adding three files RESHUFFLED the split: shard 1 went to 32 files against 26 and
29, concentrating the heavy CLI e2e suites. It timed out with `cli-e2e`,
`group/cross-trace-e2e`, `lbug-orphan-sidecar-recovery` and `server-http-startup`
still queued — `cli-e2e` being the ~50-spawn suite whose setup flakiness already
needed fixing once (PR #2000).

That clustering fragility is pre-existing and this file's own header documents
it (#2449: "the heaviest spawn suites can cluster on one shard", busiest Windows
shard already at 14m57s against the old watchdog). These three files only tipped
it over, and unblocking the PR beats holding it for a CI-infra fix that belongs
in its own change.

Reverted rather than worked around: raising the shard count would keep the
coverage but is a repo-wide CI change made on a 25-minute feedback loop with no
guarantee the reshuffle balances, and this PR is about MCP startup. The removed
entries are replaced by a comment recording WHY they are absent, what they were
measured to cost, and the precondition for re-landing them — so the gap is
documented at the point someone would otherwise re-add them blind.

Verified: the emitted file list is byte-identical to 83e8cf7c5's, so the shard
split returns to the configuration that was green.

The Windows-specific bug this series found is unaffected — `FORBIDDEN_GROUP_RE`
now spells its separator `[\\/]` like its siblings, which was a real
forward-slash-only vacuity, and that fix stays.

* fix(ci): shard the cross-platform matrix by measured weight, not file count

Restores the three `dist/` module-load closure guards to the Windows/macOS
matrix, and fixes the reason they could not stay there.

They must run on every OS — the shared probe in `test/helpers/module-load-probe.ts`
IS the platform-varying code (array-form `process.execPath` spawn, cleared
NODE_OPTIONS, `pathToFileURL` because Windows rejects a bare absolute path as an
ESM specifier, and a `path.sep`→POSIX normalisation the anchors and offender
regexes depend on). Ubuntu-only coverage of a platform guard is no coverage.

The earlier attempt turned Windows `platform-sensitive 1/3` red at the 20-minute
watchdog, and the reflex fix — unregistering them — treated the symptom. The
files are among the cheapest in the suite (measured 448 ms, 53 ms, sub-second,
and both that completed passed). The defect is that `run-cross-platform.ts`
handed vitest all 84 files plus `--shard=i/n`, and vitest partitions by file
COUNT. Runtimes here span three orders of magnitude, so a count-split is blind
to the thing that decides the budget, AND re-partitions on every insertion:
adding three free files reshuffled the list and happened to co-locate `cli-e2e`
(361 s) with `cli-limit-e2e` (75 s) and `analyze-heap-oom-e2e` (23 s) — 32 files
against 26 and 29 — which timed out with four still queued.

The split now happens in `scripts/cross-platform-shard.ts`, longest-processing-
time first over measured Windows runtimes, and only the chosen shard's files are
passed to vitest (`--shard` is consumed, never forwarded — forwarding would
re-partition the slice a second time and silently drop most of it).

Weights are measured, from the last green matrix run plus the timed files of the
failing one, and every file also carries an 8 s per-file floor. That floor is
calibrated, not guessed: the last green busiest shard ran 736 s of wall clock
over ~511 s of attributed file time. Without it the balancer isolates the two
monsters and then piles every light file onto the remaining shards — trading a
runtime imbalance for a count imbalance that costs the same.

Result at TOTAL=3, with the three guards back in: 521 s / 527 s / 519 s across
20 / 33 / 34 files. The previous green configuration's busiest shard was 736 s,
so this is better balanced than the state before any of this, and the busiest
shard is now bounded by construction rather than by sort-order luck.

`test/unit/cross-platform-shard.test.ts` pins the properties, and the
load-bearing one is not "the split is even" — it is "adding a cheap file cannot
move a heavy one", the property whose absence caused the outage. Two details in
that test are themselves load-bearing, and earlier drafts got both wrong and were
vacuous: the inserted names must sort EARLY (names sorting last disturb nothing
under any scheme) and the count must not be a multiple of the shard total
(adding exactly `total` files leaves an equal-weight round-robin in the same
rotation). Mutation-proved: replacing `weightOf` with a constant — i.e.
count-based sharding — turns that test and the per-file-floor test red; restored,
all 8 pass.

fix(ci): shard platform-sensitive matrix + spawn built CLI to fix Windows cross-platform timeout (#2394)
* fix(ci): shard platform-sensitive matrix + spawn built CLI to fix Windows cross-platform timeout

The `windows-latest (platform-sensitive)` job was hitting its 15-min internal
vitest watchdog in run-cross-platform.ts. It's cumulative slowness, not a hang:
the fixed 72-file suite is dominated by ~50 CLI/worker process spawns, and
Windows is ~5x slower than macOS at process startup (macOS ran the same set in
~3min of tests). Two complementary changes bring it back under the watchdog with
headroom, without touching any test assertion:

- Shard the platform-sensitive matrix (windows/macos × shard [1,2]) and forward
  `--shard=i/2` through run-cross-platform.ts to vitest, which partitions the
  fixed file list deterministically (sha1, equal file-count) — halving each
  runner. macOS/Ubuntu were already under budget.
- New test/helpers/cli-entry.ts (`CLI_SPAWN_PREFIX`): spawn the built
  `dist/cli/index.js` when `GITNEXUS_E2E_CLI=dist` (set on the cross-platform job,
  which already builds) instead of `node --import tsx src/cli/index.ts`, which
  re-transpiles the whole CLI on every spawn. Defaults to tsx-on-source so local
  runs always reflect current source; `GITNEXUS_E2E_CLI=dist` on an unbuilt tree
  throws an actionable "run npm run build" error. dist is opt-in only — never
  inferred from a generic `CI` env — so an ambient `CI=1` can't silently run a
  stale build. Converted 8 spawn-based e2e suites; added test/unit/cli-entry.test.ts.

The Ubuntu coverage job leaves `GITNEXUS_E2E_CLI` unset, so the tsx-on-source path
stays exercised in CI too (both entry points covered).

Measured on Linux: cli-limit-e2e 121.5s→91s, cli-e2e 289s→217s (~25%); larger on
Windows where the transpile is a bigger share of each spawn.

* refactor(ci): derive platform-sensitive shard count from one source (#2394)

The shard total was hardcoded in three coupled, unenforced places (matrix
length, job-name suffix, --shard denominator); editing one without the others
silently dropped a shard's tests with green CI. Add a checkout-free shard-plan
job whose single TOTAL generates both the shard index list (consumed via
fromJSON) and the /N denominator (job name + --shard arg), so they cannot
drift. Asserts TOTAL>=1 to rule out an empty-matrix silent skip. No behavior
change — still 2 shards per OS.

* fix(ci): 3 shards for real Windows headroom + honest sharding comments (#2394)

vitest shards by file COUNT, not runtime, so the heaviest spawn suites cluster
into one shard: live CI showed Windows shard 1/2 at 12m12s (~81% of the 15-min
watchdog) vs shard 2/2 at 3m0s. The old comments claimed "comfortable/generous
headroom", which the count-based split doesn't deliver at 2 shards. Bump TOTAL
to 3 (one line, single source) so even the busiest Windows shard clears the
watchdog, and reword the comments to describe count-based (not time-based)
sharding.

A shard-shaped-but-malformed arg (--shard=1, --shard, --shard=abc) was silently
ignored, dropping the shard flag so both legs ran the full unsharded ~50-spawn
suite — re-arming the Windows watchdog timeout with no signal. parseShardArg now
throws an actionable error on any --shard/--shard=… arg that fails the strict
regex (unrelated flags like --shardx= pass through), and the call site in
run-cross-platform.ts catches it into console.error + exit 1, kept outside the
execFileSync try so the message isn't swallowed by that catch's watchdog-only
branch.

computeSpawnPrefix silently degraded any unknown GITNEXUS_E2E_CLI value to
tsx-on-source, so a typo (e.g. `dsit`) would make CI believe it tests the dist
entry point while actually running src. Throw on any value other than
'dist'/'src'/unset (the safe tsx default is preserved for unset/''/'src', so it
still never selects dist without an explicit opt-in). Flip the unknown-mode unit
test to assert the throw and add the missing {mode:undefined, distExists:true}
case. Only ci-tests.yml sets the var (=dist), so no existing suite is affected.

* fix(test): make skipUnlessFtsAvailable install FTS on miss so shards are self-sufficient (#2394)

Sharding the platform-sensitive suite into 3 exposed a latent test-isolation
bug: load-only FTS primitives (test/integration/lbug-core-adapter.test.ts) only
passed because a sibling installer test happened to co-locate in the same shard
and install FTS into the shared ~/.lbdb first. At 3 shards, lbug-core-adapter
landed in a shard with no installer sibling, so its load-only loadFTSExtension()
failed deterministically on macOS+Windows shard 2/3 under GITNEXUS_REQUIRE_FTS=1.

Make the gate self-sufficient: on a load-only miss under REQUIRE_FTS, install
FTS with `auto` (LOAD-first, then one bounded network INSTALL) before treating
it as a hard failure — mirroring withTestIndexedDB. A pre-installed extension
still costs no network (auto is LOAD-first); offline/local runs (no env var)
still skip gracefully. Verified: with a fresh HOME (no pre-installed FTS) +
REQUIRE_FTS=1, lbug-core-adapter now passes 15/15 (previously threw).

Follow-up to the FTS self-install fix: cache ~/.lbdb/extension per OS + lockfile
so a warm run skips the network install entirely and the parallel shards share
one download across runs. Pure reliability/speed — on a cache miss the tests
still self-install FTS on demand (test/helpers/fts-availability.ts), so this is
never a correctness dependency, just a way to cut the network-install surface
that made the sharded FTS tests flaky. Keyed by lockfile hash (a LadybugDB
version bump re-installs); per-OS since the extension is a native binary.

Interpolating ${{ matrix.shard }} (now sourced from the shard-plan job output)

(code-scanning alert #824, ci-tests.yml:147). Move the value into a SHARD env
var — assigned via ${{ }} but referenced as "$SHARD" in the shell, which is not
an injection sink — and set shell: bash so the expansion is uniform across the
windows + macOS matrix (the default run shell is pwsh on Windows, where $SHARD
would be empty and trip the new malformed-shard fail-loud). Verified locally
with zizmor: the :147 template-injection finding is gone.

* ci: shard the ubuntu coverage job and merge blobs before the threshold gate (#2394)

The coverage job ran the full suite unsharded (~16 min). Shard it like the
cross-platform matrix, then merge the per-shard coverage before enforcing the
threshold gate:

- shard-plan now also single-sources the coverage shard count (cov_total /
  cov_shards), so the coverage matrix + /N denominator can't drift.
- The `tests` job becomes a coverage shard matrix: each shard runs
  `vitest run --shard --coverage --reporter=blob` with thresholds forced to 0
  (a single shard's partial coverage can never meet the gate) and uploads its
  blob. FTS self-installs per shard, so sharding the full suite is safe.
- New `coverage-merge` job (needs: tests) reduces the blobs with
  `vitest --mergeReports`, enforcing the REAL config thresholds on the combined
  ('new') coverage — this is the gate. It also emits the merged test-results.json
  and runs the unsharded web + docker suites, so the `test-reports` artifact
  keeps the exact shape ci-report.yml consumes for its base-branch ('baseline')
  vs new coverage delta.

The shard arg goes through a SHARD env var + shell: bash (no template-injection).
Validated locally: shard blobs write and merge into a coverage-summary.json +
merged test-results.json; the merge enforces thresholds on the union. CI Gate
still aggregates the coverage-merge result via the reusable-workflow call.

Note: the coverage check names change (ubuntu / coverage 1/3 … + merge) — update
any pinned branch-protection required checks.

artifacts uploaded empty — the merge job then downloaded 0 artifacts and
vitest --mergeReports failed with ENOENT scandir '.vitest-reports'. Set
include-hidden-files: true on the blob upload so the blobs actually ship.

* fix(ci): group shard-plan GITHUB_OUTPUT writes to satisfy shellcheck SC2129 (#2394)

Adding the coverage shard outputs (cov_shards/cov_total) made the shard-plan gen
step write four individual `>> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"` redirects, which shellcheck
(run by the actionlint check) flags as SC2129. Group the echoes into a single
`{ …; } >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"` block.

* perf(test): cost-balanced shard sequencer to cut CPU contention (#2394)

vitest's default --shard hashes file paths and splits by file COUNT, which
clustered the spawn-heavy suites onto one runner (Windows platform shard 1 ran
~4x the others). Add a custom sequence.sequencer that overrides only shard()
and balances by estimated WORK instead:

- specWeight() weights the fileParallelism:false spawn-heavy suites (cli-e2e,
  lbug-db — already isolated to run sequentially) far above the parallel default
  files, plus file size as a cheap finer signal. Deterministic per checkout.
- assignShards() does greedy longest-processing-time bin-packing (heaviest file
  into the currently-lightest shard). The partition stays complete and disjoint
  — verified: on the 74-file cross-platform set the three shards weigh
  7611/7610/8064 (the sequential-heavy files spread ~7/7/8) with zero overlap and
  no file dropped, vs the hash split's count-only balance.

sort() is left to the base sequencer so project groupOrder / duration-cache
ordering is untouched. Pure logic split into shard-balance.ts with a unit test
locking the disjoint+complete, balance, and determinism properties.

* fix(ci): install + cache FTS up front on the coverage (and cross-platform) shards (#2394)

coverage 3/3 failed on extension-binary-real.test.ts: it uses the file-path FTS
gate (requireFtsResourceOrSkip), which resolves ~/.lbdb/extension at MODULE LOAD
and cannot self-install the way the load-path gate (skipUnlessFtsAvailable, U8)
does. The coverage job had no FTS cache and relied on an installer test running
first in the shard — the balancing sequencer reshuffled the shards and dropped
extension-binary-real into a shard with no installer, so FTS was absent.

Remove the ordering dependency: add scripts/ensure-fts.ts (init a throwaway lbug
db, loadFTSExtension with policy:auto → LOAD-first, INSTALL on miss) and run it
up front on every coverage AND cross-platform shard, after restoring the per-OS
FTS cache. The coverage job now shares that same cache key (it previously had
none — this is the "share the cached FTS with coverage" the failure pointed at).
Cold cache installs once; warm cache is a no-network load. Verified locally:
ensure-fts installs FTS into a fresh HOME and is a no-op when already present.

fix(lbug/mcp): exact symbol content + 0-based line storage with 1-based MCP display (#2377, #2379) (#2380)
* fix(lbug): store exact symbol content snippets

* fix(ingestion): emit 0-based line numbers for COBOL/JCL/scope/markdown nodes

COBOL/JCL processors, the scope-graph emitter, and the markdown Section
emitter stored 1-based startLine/endLine, unlike every tree-sitter node
(0-based). The exact-content slice (#2379) then dropped each symbol's
declaration line for those languages. Convert to 0-based at the graph-node
emission boundary via toZeroBasedLine — leaving parser-internal .line values,
L${line} node/edge IDs, and containment checks untouched.

Refs #2377, #2379

* refactor(lbug): single source of truth for symbol-content labels

Extract SYMBOL_NODE_LABELS so the exact-content label set can't drift the way
the inline copy did in #2379. csv-generator derives EXACT_SYMBOL_CONTENT_LABELS
from it; manifest-extractor's near-identical allowlist is left behavior-unchanged
(intentional subset, #2325-test-locked) with a documented cross-reference.

Refs #2379

* test(ingestion): cover 0-based emitter output and pin exact-content slicing

- csv-pipeline: replace the blank-buffer fixture (a +/-1 shift silently passed)
  with directly-adjacent neighbors; add one-line-symbol and Section (+/-2 fallback)
  cases.
- cobol resolver: assert COBOL Module and JCL job/step emit 0-based startLine.
- markdown CRLF: update Section startLine/endLine expectations to 0-based.

Refs #2377, #2379

* feat(mcp): present 1-based line numbers in context/query/impact tools

GraphNode startLine/endLine are stored 0-based (tree-sitter rows), which
surprised users querying them (they don't line up with editors/sed). Add
toDisplayLine and apply it at the context/query/impact response boundaries so
line numbers are editor/sed-aligned. Raw cypher stays 0-based (documented in the
schema resource); BasicBlock/PDG statement lines (already 1-based) and internal
join params are left untouched.

Refs #2377

* test(mcp): assert 1-based tool exposure with raw cypher staying 0-based

context() reports startLine+1 (editor/sed aligned); a raw cypher RETURN of the
same node keeps the stored 0-based value. Guards against double-conversion and
leaking the display shift into raw results.

Refs #2377

* fix(mcp): stop query() double-converting BM25 line numbers

bm25Search applied toDisplayLine to its result rows, and query()'s
aggregation loop applied it again, so BM25-matched symbols reported
lines shifted +2 (stored 0-based 41 read as 43, not 42) while
semantic-matched symbols were correct. bm25Search is called only from
query(); return raw 0-based rows and let the single aggregation-loop
conversion handle both retrievers.

Adds a query() BM25 regression test asserting stored 41 -> 42 (would
be 43 if double-converted), which the prior mcp-line-display test —
covering only context()+cypher — never exercised. (#2380, #2377)

* fix(mcp): use ?? not || so first-line symbols keep their line number

`sym.startLine || sym[4]` treated a legitimate 0-based startLine of 0
as absent, so context()/query() dropped startLine/endLine for every
symbol on line 1 of its file — every COBOL Module (toZeroBasedLine(1)
= 0) and markdown h1. `??` only falls through to the positional
fallback on null/undefined, preserving a real 0. This also repairs the
rename definition-edit path, which consumes context()'s value.

Adds a context() first-line (startLine:0 -> 1) assertion. (#2380, #2377)

* fix(mcp): make group/cross-repo trace line numbers 1-based consistently

A group/cross-repo trace presented 1-based endpoints (via
resolveSymbolForGroup) but 0-based hops (tagHops copies port.trace
output verbatim), so one response mixed bases. Wrap the trace port
adapter (traceForGroup) to convert hop lines to 1-based too, matching
the endpoints. Single-repo trace dispatches directly (not through this
port) and stays 0-based — full single-repo parity is a tracked
follow-up. core/group stays display-agnostic (no mcp import).

Extends the cross-trace e2e test to assert hops share the endpoints'
base (checkout 10 -> 11, getUsers 1 -> 2). (#2380)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(mcp): present explain/pdg_query anchor line 1-based

resolveBlockAnchor converted its ambiguous-candidate lines to 1-based
but left the resolved-target anchor raw 0-based, so the same tool
reported two bases depending on whether the target was ambiguous.
Convert the display anchor to 1-based via toDisplayLine. The BasicBlock
join param (symStart: sym.startLine + 1) is untouched — it targets the
1-based BasicBlock id space, not display.

Asserts the resolved anchor is 1-based (targetFn stored 10 -> 11). (#2380)

* fix(mcp): bump schema + PDG result versions for the line-number change

The 0-based storage flip for COBOL/JCL/markdown/scope (#2377/#2379)
changed on-disk line semantics, and the PDG result startLine is now
1-based (#2380). Neither shipped a version bump, so an incremental
re-analyze would preserve old 1-based rows (mixed-base index rendered
one line too high) and PDG consumers got no signal.

- INCREMENTAL_SCHEMA_VERSION 5 -> 6 (forces a one-time full re-analyze)
- PDG_RESULT_VERSION 1 -> 2 (result-shape discriminator)

Updates the version-pinning tests, the pdgResultVersion result type,
and the tools.ts PDG output-contract doc. (#2380)

* test(group): guard manifest label list against SYMBOL_NODE_LABELS drift

manifest-extractor's CUSTOM_CONTRACT_RESOLVE_QUERY hand-lists the
contract-resolvable labels as a deliberate subset of the shared
SYMBOL_NODE_LABELS, guarded only by a comment — the same drift class
(#2379) the shared-set refactor eliminated elsewhere. Derive the
query's label set and assert it is a strict subset whose difference is
exactly {Namespace, Variable, Module}, so adding a symbol label without
a conscious manifest decision fails. Query string stays literal
(#2325-test-locked). (#2380)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(mcp): document which tools present 1-based vs 0-based line numbers

The schema-resource note listed only context/query/impact as 1-based.
After the trace/anchor fixes it now enumerates the full set —
context, query, impact, group/cross-repo trace, and explain/pdg_query
anchors are 1-based; raw Cypher and single-repo trace stay 0-based
(full single-repo-trace parity is a tracked follow-up); BasicBlock/PDG
statement lines are separately 1-based. (#2377, #2380)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(mcp): pin impact() line-value display (close the coverage gap)

The prior mcp-line-display test only asserted context() + raw cypher,
which is why the query() double-conversion (#2380) shipped green. Adds
an impact() line-value assertion via the ambiguous-candidate path (the
only impact response that surfaces a per-candidate line): two same-name
symbols force ambiguity and the candidate at stored 0-based 41 must
read 42. (#2380)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(mcp): fix stale rename #2283 mock after 1-based context display

rename resolves its symbol via context(), which now presents startLine
1-based (#2377), then subtracts 1 to recover the 0-based file index.
The #2283 mock stored startLine:1 but put `oldName` on the file's line
0, so after the 1-based shift the definition edit no longer matched and
the write-failure path never fired — the test read 'success' instead of
'partial'. Align the mock content to its stored line (oldName on
0-based line 1). Pre-existing failure surfaced once ubuntu/coverage
completed on this branch. (#2380)

* test(mcp): consolidate line-display tests into one shared DB block

The query()/BM25 case had spun up a second full LadybugDB + FTS setup;
fold it into the single existing block (adding FTS + the Zqxwvbm seed
there) so the file builds one DB, not two. Trims per-file setup cost —
relevant to the Windows platform-sensitive suite's under-load 15-minute
timeout. Same five assertions, all green. (#2380)

* fix(group): use labels(n) IN allowlist instead of LadybugDB-incompatible multi-label Cypher (#2325)

manifest-extractor and http-route-extractor built Cypher with the openCypher
label disjunction `MATCH (n:A|B|C)`, which LadybugDB's parser rejects. The
error was swallowed by try/catch, so manifest contracts silently fell back to
synthetic UIDs with empty filePath and http-route cross-file handler
resolution silently returned null.

Replace all 7 queries with `MATCH (n) WHERE labels(n) IN [...]`. LadybugDB
returns labels(n) as a single string, so this is an exact allowlist — a 1:1
behavior-preserving syntax translation (validated against LadybugDB 0.17.1).
Export the two http-route query constants so integration tests can run the
exact production strings against a real DB, and add per-branch real-DB
regression coverage (the bug shipped because no test exercised these queries).

* fix(group): import CypherExecutor from contract-extractor in #2325 test

The new manifest regression test imported `CypherExecutor` from
`group/types.js`, which does not export it — the type is defined only in
`group/contract-extractor.js` (as all production extractors import it).
This was a real TS2305 under `tsc -p tsconfig.test.json`, masked from CI
because the default tsconfig excludes `test/` and `import type` is erased
at runtime. Split the import so the type resolves from its real module.

* test(group): run #2325 native-LadybugDB tests in the lbug-db project

Per TESTING.md, every test that opens a real `@ladybugdb/core` handle must
be registered in the sequential `lbug-db` Vitest project (and excluded from
`default`) to avoid native-mmap file-lock conflicts across parallel forks on
Windows. The two new group integration tests use `withTestLbugDB`/pool-adapter
but were in neither list, so they ran under the parallel `default` project.
Add both to `lbug-db.include` and `default.exclude`, matching every sibling.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(group): export custom-contract resolve query for #2325 test

The #2325 integration test hand-copied the 21-label `custom`-branch
resolve query into a local `LABELS_CUSTOM_QUERY` constant, so editing the
production allowlist would silently desync the canary. Promote the query to
an exported `CUSTOM_CONTRACT_RESOLVE_QUERY` (mirroring http-route-extractor's
exported query strings) and import it in the test, so the canary always runs
the exact production query. Behavior unchanged — same query string.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(group): de-brittle the #2325 custom-query label assertion

The unit test asserted a fixed 7-label ordered substring of the 21-label
custom-branch allowlist, coupling it to label order and no-space formatting —
a harmless reorder would have broken it. Replace with order/spacing-tolerant
membership checks for a spread of individual labels, keeping the unconditional
`not.toContain('Function|Method')` guard as the real regression check.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(group): correct #2325 http-route docstring + add real-trigger canary

The http-route test claimed `MATCH (n:Function|Method|CodeElement)` "which
LadybugDB rejects" — but that 3-label disjunction actually PARSES. Verified
against the real parser, the genuine #2325 trigger is a *reserved-keyword*
label in the disjunction: `Macro` and `Union` both are, and only the manifest
custom branch (21-label list) and the lib branch (missing `Package` table)
actually threw. The http-route conversion to `labels(n) IN [...]` was a
consistency change, not a parser fix.

Correct the misleading docstring and add a rejection canary pinned to the real
cause (`MATCH (n:Function|Macro|Union)` rejects), so a future query that
reintroduces a reserved-keyword disjunction is caught.

* test(group): cover the thrift package-strip path against a real LadybugDB

The thrift-only branch of resolveSymbol strips a `package.` prefix from the
service name (`com.example.AuthService` -> `AuthService`) before the
Class/Interface lookup — previously exercised only with a mocked executor.
Add a service-contract integration case (no method, so it takes the
package-strip path, not the grpc-identical method path) that resolves the real
`cls:AuthService`. Without the strip the lookup matches nothing and falls back
to a synthetic uid, so this is a non-vacuous guard for the strip.

* fix(group): drop vestigial 'Package' label from lib contract lookup

The `lib` branch allowlisted `labels(n) IN ['Package','Module']`, but there is
no `Package` node table (see NODE_TABLES) — the entry only ever matched
nothing. Restrict to `['Module']`, the label libraries actually resolve to.
Behavior-neutral: the lib integration case still resolves its Module symbol.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(group): update PIPELINE label-scoped queries to labels(n) IN form

The resolveSymbol label-scoping bullets still showed the banned
`MATCH (n:A|B)` disjunction; a contributor copying them would reintroduce
#2325. Rewrite them in the actual `labels(n) IN [...]` form, note the real
trigger (LadybugDB rejects a disjunction naming a reserved keyword such as
`Macro`/`Union`), and reflect the lib allowlist as `['Module']` after dropping
the vestigial `Package` label.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(group): correct #2325 root-cause comments in the extractors

The production comments claimed LadybugDB rejects the `MATCH (n:A|B)`
disjunction "outright". Verified against the real parser, it rejects only when
a label is a reserved keyword (`Macro`, `Union`) or names a missing node
table. So only the manifest `custom` branch (reserved keywords in its 21-label
list) and the `lib` branch (missing `Package` table) actually threw; the
http-route/grpc/thrift/topic disjunctions parse fine and were converted to
`labels(n) IN [...]` for consistency and future-proofing, not because they were
broken. Rewrite the comments to say so accurately. No behavior change.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(group): make #2325 test prose name the real reserved-keyword trigger

The manifest test docstring/title and the unit-test comment said LadybugDB
rejects the `MATCH (n:A|B)` disjunction generally. It rejects only when a label
is a reserved keyword (`Macro`/`Union`) or a missing table. Reword the docstring
(custom + lib branches threw; others parsed), retitle the rejection canary to
"its list names reserved keywords Macro/Union", and correct the unit-test
comment. The rejection canary still passes — the custom 21-label list does
contain Macro/Union. No behavior change.

fix(group): cache read-only bridge handle to fix Windows @group reopen (#2274) (#2313)
* fix(group): cache read-only bridge handle to fix Windows @group reopen (#2274)

A long-lived MCP server opened bridge.lbug read-only, queried, and closed
it on every @group trace/impact call. On Windows the in-process reopen of the
same file fails (the OS handle is not fully released before the next open races
in), so repeated @group calls broke. #2269 fixed Linux/macOS by skipping
CHECKPOINT on read-only handles; Windows stayed broken.

Instead of fighting LadybugDB's Windows close/reopen timing: cache one
read-only handle per groupDir and reuse it across calls (open-once-per-process
already works on Windows). getCachedBridgeReadOnly:
  - reuses a single handle keyed by resolved groupDir,
  - invalidates on mtime change (external writer / re-sync),
  - invalidates explicitly before same-process writes (writeBridge),
  - guards concurrent first-open with an in-flight promise (no handle leak),
  - closes all handles on process exit.

closeBridgeDb now no-ops for the cached handle (cache owns its lifetime);
uncached/writable handles are unaffected. ensureBridgeReady uses the cache.

The in-process write->read reopen of the same bridge.lbug file remains a known
LadybugDB Windows limitation, so the existing reopen tests stay win32-skipped.
A new cache-aware itCacheReopen gate applies to the 3 new tests whose setup
requires write-then-read in the same process (same class as itLbugReopen). The
cache itself exercises read->read reuse and is unaffected.

* fix(group): harden bridge RO-handle cache for concurrency, lifetime & Windows (#2313 review)

Addresses the tri-review + Copilot findings on the read-only bridge-handle cache:

- P1 (F2): serialize queryBridge per cached handle via a per-handle FIFO lock
  (the conn-lock.ts chain mechanic, keyed per cache entry, not the global lock).
  Two concurrent @group callers sharing one lbug.Connection can no longer
  dispatch two queries at once (the heap-corruption hazard). Uncached/writable
  handles skip the lock at zero cost.
- P1 (F3): refcount lease — getCachedBridgeReadOnly acquires, closeBridgeDb
  releases (no caller change). The native close is deferred until in-flight
  readers drain (refs===0) and runs exactly once (closeStarted guard).
  invalidateBridgeCache and the mtime-evict path share one evict/close path.
- Windows: bounded drain in evictBridgeEntry — a concurrent group_sync waits
  (<= WINDOWS_DRAIN_TIMEOUT_MS) for readers to release before the atomic rename
  on win32 so it stays clean; POSIX remains fully non-blocking; single-threaded
  sync still closes-before-rename on all platforms.
- P0 (F1/F6): gate the mtime cache test with itCacheReopen (win32-skipped) and
  drop the manual invalidate so writeBridge self-invalidation is under test;
  add an external-writer (fsp.utimes) reopen case.
- Windows coverage (F9): new cross-process integration test seeds bridge.lbug
  in a separate tsx process, so read->read handle reuse is proven on win32 CI
  (not skipped). Plus concurrent cold-open dedupe coverage.
- P2/P3: scope the Windows NOTE to read->read (F4); JSDoc the closeBridgeDb
  release/close contract (F5); drop the if-branch in the B2 probe (F7); revert
  incidental Prettier churn in cross-impact.ts (F14); fix the stale describe
  header (F15); document the beforeExit/signal and ENOENT-mtime behavior
  (F11/F13).

tsc clean; group unit + integration suites green.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(group): run the B2 rename-clash probe on win32 via cross-process seed (#2313 review)

Moves the B2 "external rename while a cached RO handle is held" probe out of the
unit suite (where it was win32-skipped, because its in-process writeBridge->RO-open
is the unfixed Windows reopen) into the cross-process integration test, where a
separate-process seed makes the RO open clean. The probe now RUNS ON WIN32 CI and
empirically answers whether an open RO handle blocks an external atomic rename over
bridge.lbug — the assumption under writeBridge's invalidate-before-rename and the
win32 drain.

Hardened (per adversarial review) so a win32 RED is the real steady-state share-mode
signal, not an artifact:
- use production retryRename (not bare fsp.rename) so transient EBUSY/EPERM from the
  Windows AV/indexer scanning the fresh temp file is absorbed; a RED then means the
  rename is blocked even after retries (FILE_SHARE_DELETE absent -> invalidate-before-
  rename is load-bearing).
- stage the byte-identical replacement BEFORE opening the RO handle, so no second OS
  handle touches bridge.lbug while LadybugDB holds it (avoids a FILE_SHARE_READ red for
  the wrong question).
- drop the post-rename query (handle survival is covered by the reuse test); the probe's
  sole verdict is whether the rename is blocked.

Removes the old win32-skipped unit B2 (a strict subset of the new probe).

feat(group): cross-repo call trace using PDG (#2269)
* refactor(group): extract shared resolveBridgeNeighbors from cross-impact

Lift the uid-filtered consumer<->provider ContractLink join (direction +
queryBridge + row normalization + confidence sort) out of runGroupImpact's
inline Phase-2 block into an exported resolveBridgeNeighbors helper. Behavior
is unchanged for impact; the helper becomes the single shared bridge join so
the upcoming cross-repo trace path never forks its own copy of the neighbor
Cypher. Empty uid sets short-circuit without a DB round-trip.

Adds direct coverage (real bridge via writeBridge/openBridgeDbReadOnly) for
both directions plus the empty-set and unknown-uid edges.

* feat(group): cross-repo trace stitching (groupTrace + runGroupTrace)

Add GroupService.groupTrace and the pure runGroupTrace engine that stitches
per-repo CALLS/HAS_METHOD trace segments across one ContractLink boundary in
the group bridge:

  from --(local trace)--> consumer --(ContractLink)--> provider --(local trace)--> to

- Resolves from/to across all members (symbol node id == bridge symbolUid);
  same-repo endpoints delegate to a single local trace with no crossing.
- Single boundary crossing (MAX_SUPPORTED_CROSS_DEPTH); deeper crossDepth is
  clamped with a note, mirroring cross-impact.
- Discriminated GroupTraceResult union (ok|not_found|ambiguous|error) with
  per-hop repo tags, a typed crossings[] entry, and centralized degraded-state
  note constants (TRACE_NOTES). No .
- Trace-specific pair query (keeps BOTH crossing endpoints) lives in this
  module; the uid-filtered neighbor join (resolveBridgeNeighbors) is reused
  where it fits. ensureBridgeReady exported for reuse.
- New GroupToolPort methods (trace/resolveSymbol/pdgFlows) are optional so
  existing port mocks keep type-checking; runGroupTrace guards on presence.

PDG enrichment is wired as an opt-in hook (enrichSegment) — the port method is
stubbed until U4. Covered by unit tests over a real bridge + mocked port.

* feat(group): route trace tool to groupTrace on @group syntax

Wire the cross-repo trace through the existing @group dispatch:
- callTool routes trace with an @-prefixed repo to callToolAtGroupRepo, which
  forwards from/to/uid/file/maxDepth/includeTests plus the experimental
  pdg/crossDepth flags to GroupService.groupTrace. Member path in @group/path
  is advisory for trace (resolution is whole-group).
- Port gains trace/resolveSymbol/pdgFlows adapters. resolveSymbolForGroup wraps
  the shared resolveSymbolCandidates so groupTrace can locate the member repo
  and recover each endpoint node id (== bridge symbolUid). pdgFlowsForGroup is
  a degraded stub here (call-level only); U4 implements the REACHING_DEF walk.
- trace tool schema documents the @group entry point, pdg, and crossDepth.

Single-repo trace is untouched. Covered by dispatch-routing tests (@group ->
groupTrace, non-group stays local) and tool-schema assertions.

* feat(group): opt-in PDG data-flow enrichment for cross-repo trace

Implement _pdgFlowsForGroupImpl: the real REACHING_DEF anchor walk that backs
the port pdgFlows adapter (replacing the U3 call-level stub). When pdg:true and
the segment repo has a flows PDG layer, the boundary-adjacent segments carry
their intra-procedural def->use hops:

- Anchors by the boundary symbol UID (precise; avoids the by-name ambiguity the
  resolveBlockAnchor path can hit), then reuses the same span-anchored,
  bind-param-only flows query as pdg_query (BasicBlock id-prefix + [start+1,
  end+1] line window; no rel-property index, so the anchor IS the bound).
- Stays intra-procedural: data flow never crosses the repo boundary.
- pdgStampForMode probe: false -> available:false (degrade with note); the
  trace stays ok. Any query failure is swallowed (enrichment is auxiliary).

Covered by runGroupTrace enrichment tests: dataFlow attached on opt-in,
degraded note when no layer, and no pdgFlows call when pdg is omitted.

* test(group): evaluation-first cross-repo trace e2e (two real indexes)

End-to-end gate for the cross-repo trace: stands up two real LadybugDB indexes
(consumer 'frontend' + provider 'backend'), a real ContractLink bridge, and a
real LocalBackend with both repos registered, then drives the public
callTool('trace', { repo: '@grp', pdg: true }) and asserts:
  - the stitched checkout -> callUsers -(CONTRACT_LINK)-> handleUsers -> getUsers
    path, each hop tagged with its member repo
  - real REACHING_DEF data-flow enrichment of the consumer segment (userId)
  - a degraded 'No PDG layer in app/backend' note (provider has no PDG layer)
  - single-repo trace against one member is unchanged (no crossings)

Hand-persists the minimal real graph (deterministic; a full two-repo analyze is
heavier than this gate needs) and exercises real Cypher across
resolveSymbolCandidates, _traceImpl, the bridge pair query, and
_pdgFlowsForGroupImpl. Windows-skipped (describeReopen) and registered in the
cross-platform native-lbug set.

Scoped to a single @group call: opening bridge.lbug read-only a SECOND time in
one process currently fails (shared bridge open/close lifecycle, also affects
impact @group) — the pdg-omitted/clamp variants are unit-covered.

* docs(group): document cross-repo trace + PDG enrichment

ARCHITECTURE.md: trace is now group-aware; describe the @group cross-repo
stitch over a single ContractLink boundary (CONTRACT_LINK hop, crossings[],
crossDepth clamp), the opt-in experimental PDG REACHING_DEF enrichment of
boundary-adjacent segments, the symbolUid-grain join between the two stores,
and the deferred full cross-program (SDG-like) data flow. PIPELINE.md: add the
cross-trace consumer of the bridge with its pair-query rationale.

Does not touch gitnexus/CHANGELOG.md (release-owned).

* fix(review): apply autofix feedback

Apply safe_auto findings from ce-code-review (run 20260622-094243):
- local-backend.ts: drop (r: any) in _pdgFlowsForGroupImpl row map; coerce
  hop line via Number() so a nullish LadybugDB cell can't surface NaN.
- tools.ts: advertise the forwarded  param in the trace schema and add
  crossDepth maximum:10 (schema now matches what groupTrace reads).
- cross-trace.ts: parallelize per-member resolveSymbol/resolveRepo with
  order-preserving Promise.all (matches groupContext/groupQuery); add a note
  when pdg:true is passed to a same-repo trace (PDG only enriches at a
  cross-repo boundary).
- tests: remove  / tighten  (no-any rule).

Residual gated_auto/manual findings (unbounded crossing query + loop,
whole-file PDG widening on absent span, error-vs-no_path masking, top-level
try/catch parity, helper dedupe, branch-coverage gaps) are recorded in the run
artifact for the PR body.

* fix(group): skip CHECKPOINT on read-only bridge close so it can reopen

Root cause of the in-process bridge.lbug reopen failure (which broke repeated
@group impact/trace calls in a long-lived MCP server): closeBridgeDb issued
CHECKPOINT on EVERY handle, including read-only ones. A CHECKPOINT on a
read-only connection has nothing to flush but leaves a WAL/shadow lock artifact
that makes the next read-only open of the same path fail (openBridgeDbReadOnly
returns null -> 'Could not open bridge.lbug read-only'). Reproduced: open ->
query -> closeBridgeDb -> open again returned null only when the close ran
CHECKPOINT; a non-checkpoint close reopened fine, and the raw native
open/close cycle was never the problem.

Fix: tag read-only handles (BridgeHandle._readOnly, set by openBridgeDbReadOnly)
and skip CHECKPOINT for them in closeBridgeDb. Writable handles are unchanged
(they still flush before close). This is the shared bridge-db close path, so
impact @group benefits identically.

- Regression test in bridge-db.test.ts: open/query/close/open/query/open in one
  process now succeeds.
- Re-enabled the second @group call in cross-trace-e2e.test.ts (was scoped to a
  single call for this very limitation).

* fix(group): bring bridge-db close to parity with the core adapter safeClose

The bridge open/close cycle was less robust than the main graph DB's: closeBridgeDb
closed the connection/database but skipped the post-close steps the core adapter's
safeClose performs, so a rapid in-process reopen could race the OS handle release
(Windows) or an orphaned WAL sidecar. That gap is why the close-then-reopen tests
had to skip Windows.

closeBridgeDb now mirrors safeClose after closing the handle:
- waitForWindowsHandleRelease(dbPath): probe the file (+ .wal) until the residual
  Windows lock clears, so the next open does not race (warns if the budget is
  exhausted, matching the core adapter).
- finalizeLbugSidecarsAfterClose(dbPath): quarantine an orphaned WAL (shadow
  missing) so the next open replays a consistent file.

Both helpers are the same ones safeClose uses (Windows-proven via the core adapter
CI), and the bridge read open already retries transient locks. Combined with the
read-only CHECKPOINT skip, the bridge reopen is now robust on every platform, so
the close-then-reopen tests run on all platforms (Windows CI exercises them via the
cross-platform subset). No write-path behavior change; Linux/macOS unaffected.

* fix(group): bound cross-repo crossing fan-out (LIMIT + segment memoization)

Address the top review residual: the bridge crossing query was unbounded and the
crossing-selection loop could run an O(2*N) sequential trace-BFS over every
ContractLink between a repo pair.

- CY_CROSSINGS_BETWEEN now ORDERs BY confidence DESC and LIMITs to
  MAX_CROSSINGS_TO_TRY + 1; listCrossingsBetween slices to the cap and reports
  truncation. Exceeding the cap surfaces a note (no silent truncation), keeping
  the highest-confidence crossings. Aligns with the repo's anchored+LIMIT-bounded
  query discipline (LadybugDB has no rel-property index).
- The home-repo segment (from -> consumer) depends only on the consumer uid and
  the target-repo segment (provider -> to) only on the provider uid, so each is
  memoized by that uid. Many crossings sharing a consumer/provider (one client
  call linked to several providers) now cost one trace per distinct endpoint
  instead of one per crossing. A consumer whose segment already failed is skipped
  for every later crossing that shares it.

Test: two links sharing a consumer (first provider unreachable, second reachable)
assert the from->consumer segment is traced exactly once and the second crossing
wins.

* fix(group): restore Windows skip for bridge reopen tests; drop ineffective close-side probe

The previous commit flipped the bridge close-then-reopen tests to run on Windows,
betting that a close-side waitForWindowsHandleRelease + finalizeLbugSidecarsAfterClose
probe (mirroring the core adapter safeClose) would make the in-process reopen work
there. Windows CI proved otherwise: 4 writeBridge->openBridgeDbReadOnly tests fail
('expected null not to be null' — the read open returns null). The writable-close ->
read-open handoff plus writeBridge's atomic sidecar rename does not release the OS
file handle before the read open races, and the existing open-side LBUG_OPEN_RETRY
only retries lock-pattern errors, not the post-rename sidecar database-id mismatch.
macOS passes; the core adapter's own reopen also passes — this is bridge+Windows
specific.

- Revert itLbugReopen to the Windows skip (the pre-existing, correct state).
- Remove the close-side probe + finalize from closeBridgeDb: it did NOT close the
  Windows gap, and reviewers flagged it for hot-path latency (finalize ran on every
  close, all platforms) and safeClose duplication.
- KEEP the load-bearing fix — skipping CHECKPOINT on read-only handles — which fixed
  the reproduced Linux/macOS in-process reopen artifact (the real bug).

Net: Linux/macOS repeated @group impact/trace works in-process; Windows in-process
bridge reopen remains a documented limitation (unchanged from before this PR).

* fix(group): surface degraded members + cap truncation; honest crossDepth schema

Address the cross-engine-corroborated tri-review findings (Codex + Claude):
- resolveAcrossMembers / runGroupTrace now track member repos that could NOT be
  queried (resolveRepo or resolveSymbol threw) and, when the result is not_found,
  attach a degraded-member note. A transient/corrupt member DB is no longer
  silently reported as a clean 'symbol absent' not_found. (Codex B1+B3 + ce-reliability.)
- The cross-repo not_found now carries a programmatic truncated:true flag (and a
  clearer suggestion) when the MAX_CROSSINGS_TO_TRY cap was hit, so a consumer can
  distinguish 'no path' from 'cap may have hidden a connecting ContractLink'.
  (Codex B3 + ce-adversarial + ce-api-contract.)
- trace tool schema: crossDepth maximum 10 -> 1 to match the implementation's
  single-hop clamp (the schema previously advertised an unsupported 2-10 range).
  (ce-api-contract, conf 100.)

Test: a member whose resolveSymbol throws yields not_found WITH a degraded note
naming the unreachable repo (if-free responder map).

* docs(group): clarify trace @group/memberPath is advisory (resolves all members)

Tri-review (Codex ce, conf 100) caught a doc/impl inconsistency: ARCHITECTURE.md
lumped trace with query/context/impact as honoring @group/memberPath member
scoping, but cross-repo trace resolves from/to across ALL members (the member
path is advisory). Clarify the behavior and point to from_uid/to_uid for
disambiguating same-named symbols across members.

* feat(group): file-level boundary fallback so cross-repo trace works on HTTP contracts

Benchmark (bench/cross-repo-trace/) running the REAL pipeline (runFullAnalysis
--pdg -> real syncGroup -> trace @group) found that cross-repo trace returned
not_found for real HTTP links even though sync built the correct ContractLinks:
HTTP (and other source-scan) contracts hardcode symbolUid:'' (http-route-extractor),
and both cross-trace AND cross-impact join crossings by Contract.symbolUid, which
never matches an empty uid. (Pre-existing — impact @group has the same gap.)

Fix: when a crossing's symbolUid is empty, fall back to the contract's FILE — if
the user's from/to resolves into the contract file, that endpoint anchors the
boundary. CY_CROSSINGS_BETWEEN now returns consumer/provider filePath; a crossing
is kept if it can be anchored by uid OR file on each side; a fileBoundaryFallback
note flags that the boundary is file-level, not symbol-precise. This makes the
common 'trace from=<calling fn> to=<handler fn>' case work end-to-end (verified:
fetchUsers -> listUsers stitches with a CONTRACT_LINK hop + PDG enrichment, 2/2).

Limits (documented in the bench README + the note): anonymous handlers have no
named target; when several contracts share files the file fallback may attach the
wrong contractId to a correct path. The proper upstream fix is to populate
symbolUid in the HTTP extraction (benefits impact too) — the bench is its gate.

Adds a unit test pinning the empty-symbolUid file-fallback stitch.

* fix(group): resolve HTTP contract symbolUid by containment (fixes cross-repo trace + impact)

Addresses the root cause behind the cross-repo trace file-fallback: HTTP
contracts hardcoded symbolUid:'' (http-route-extractor), so both cross-trace and
cross-impact — which join crossings on Contract.symbolUid — could not traverse
HTTP links. (Also found: the pre-existing graph-assisted resolution queried the
wrong edge, CONTAINS instead of DEFINES, so it never resolved a uid either.)

Now the extractor resolves each detection to a real symbol:
- HttpDetection carries the call-site line (node.ts sets it on every express/
  fetch/axios/jquery/nest detection; express also captures the handler arg).
- resolveDetectionSymbol resolves the named handler first, else the innermost
  Function/Method whose line span encloses the call (consumer = the function
  containing the fetch; provider = the named/inline handler), over the correct
  File-[DEFINES]->symbol edge. Base-tolerant (0- vs 1-based startLine).
- Wired into both source-scan and graph-assisted provider/consumer paths.

Verified end-to-end (bench/cross-repo-trace): all 4 contracts now carry real
uids, trace is symbol-precise (GET pair -> http::GET, POST -> http::POST, no
file-fallback note), and impact @group fans out (cross_repo_hits 0 -> 1). The
cross-trace file-level fallback remains as the secondary path for truly
anonymous handlers. Adds 2 containment unit tests; 738 group/integration pass.

Languages other than JS/TS still resolve providers by handler name; their
consumers fall through to the file fallback until their plugins set the line.

* fix(group): extend HTTP symbolUid containment to all languages + nested methods

Completes the symbolUid resolution across every bundled HTTP plugin: Python, Go,
PHP, Kotlin and Java now set the call-site line on their consumer (and Feign/
named) detections, so their HTTP contracts resolve to the containing function
the same way Node/TS already did.

Also generalizes the containment query: it now matches Function/Method/CodeElement
by filePath (UNION ALL) instead of File-[DEFINES]->symbol. The DEFINES edge only
reaches a file's TOP-LEVEL symbols, so methods nested in classes (Java/Kotlin —
File defines the class, the class defines the method) were invisible; matching by
filePath reaches them. Verified against a real index (LadybugDB supports the
UNION); JS/TS still fully symbol-precise (bench 2/2), 709 group tests pass.

Residual is now only the inherent case — a fully anonymous handler with no named
callee — which keeps the cross-trace file-level fallback.

* feat(group): destination trace — follow a consumer to an anonymous handler

Handles the one inherent residual: an anonymous route handler
(`router.get('/x', (req,res) => …)`) has no symbol node at all (the file holds
only a Const + PDG BasicBlocks), so it can never be named as a trace `to`.

Adds a DESTINATION TRACE: omit to/to_uid/to_file on an @group trace and
`trace from=<consumer>` follows the consumer's outgoing HTTP call across the
bridge and reports where it lands — by route + file:line, with a notes[] entry
flagging the handler as anonymous. Implemented as a new branch in runGroupTrace
(p.destination) backed by CY_CROSSINGS_FROM (all ContractLinks leaving the
consumer repo) + stitchToDestination; the provider endpoint is labelled
'<METHOD /path handler>' when its symbolName is a generic token/file basename.

The MCP routing already omitted an absent `to`, so only the schema docs changed.
parseTraceParams now treats a missing `to` as a destination trace instead of an
error. Verified end-to-end: anonymous fixture reports
'app/frontend:fetchUsers -> app/backend:<http::GET::/api/users handler>'; named
fixture lands at the real function. Adds 2 unit tests; 915 group tests pass.

* fix(group): tri-review fixes for cross-repo trace + symbolUid resolution

Two-engine tri-review (Claude swarm+ce + Codex GPT-5.5 swarm+ce+adversarial)
surfaced these; cross-engine-corroborated unless noted.

Correctness (P1, all four lanes): destination trace reported the WRONG endpoint
— an empty-uid consumer made trace(from->from) trivially succeed, so the highest-
confidence same-file crossing won regardless of which call `from` makes.
stitchToDestination now collects ALL connecting crossings, prefers symbol-precise
hits, and returns `ambiguous` (with candidates) when it cannot disambiguate.

Correctness (P1, Codex): resolveDetectionSymbol early-returned null when
d.line==null, blocking NAME resolution for named providers that set no line
(Spring/Go/etc.). Name resolution now runs first; only containment needs a line.

Correctness (P2): resolveContainingSymbol OR-ed `line` and `line-1`, which could
mis-pick a one-line sibling. It now probes the base-correct `line-1` first and
falls back to `line` only if nothing matches.

Correctness (Codex): anonymous Express handlers emitted name:'handler' and could
attach to an unrelated fn literally named `handler`. node.ts now emits name:null
for non-identifier handlers (containment-only).

Robustness: drop the first-symbol-in-file pickSymbolUid guess from the graph
consumer/provider paths (a wrong uid would win the contractId merge); remove the
dead CONTAINS_QUERY fallback (CONTAINS is File->Folder, never a symbol) + the now
-unused pickSymbolUid/handlerName; seed destination notes with degraded-member
notes so a successful trace still surfaces them; providerLabel takes providerUid
so a resolved fn named `handler` is not mislabeled anonymous, and only true file
basenames (known extensions) — not any dotted name — count as anonymous.

API contract: a single-repo trace with no `to` now returns an actionable error
(destination trace is @group-only) instead of "symbol 'undefined' not found".

Maintainability/tests: narrow asLocalTrace per-field (drop as-unknown-as); fix the
PR's lone as-any (vi.mocked); if-free e2e teardown; qualify the bench README.

Adds ambiguous-destination, anonymous-handler-no-false-name, and single-repo-no-to
tests; redirects graph mocks CONTAINS->UNION ALL. 918 group/integration pass.

* fix(group): carry degraded-member notes through SUCCESSFUL group traces

A reviewer (koriyoshi2041, PR #2269) correctly flagged that degraded-member
resolution was surfaced only on not_found, not on a successful ok result. Group
trace resolves names across ALL members, so an ok is 'unique among the members
we could query' — if a member that threw during resolveSymbol also holds from/to,
the real answer could be ambiguous. The destination path already seeded the note
(prior commit); this extends it to the same-repo and cross-repo success paths by
seeding the dispatch notes with degradedNotes([...fromRes.degraded, ...toRes.degraded]).

Adds a regression test: reg-be throws while a same-repo trace succeeds in reg-fe;
the ok result now carries the 'could not be queried' degraded note (app/backend).

* test(bench): cover all implemented cross-repo trace cases in one runner

Replace the single named-handler script with a self-contained verify.mjs that
generates each fixture inline and exercises every implemented end-to-end case
against the real analyze -> sync -> trace/impact pipeline, asserting PASS/FAIL
(exit non-zero on failure). 10 checks across 4 scenarios:
- named handlers: 4/4 symbolUid resolved; symbol-precise GET vs POST crossing
  selection; destination trace lands at the named handler.
- anonymous handler: empty symbolUid; destination trace reports it by route with
  the anonymous note.
- impact @group fan-out (cross_repo_hits >= 1).
- multi-language (Python Flask + requests): link built, cross-repo trace stitches,
  and the file-level boundary fallback is exercised when the provider has no uid.

Ambiguous-destination and degraded-member paths need synthetic inputs the real
analyzer cannot produce, so they stay in the unit suite (documented in the README
+ script header). Removes verify-named.mjs + fixtures-named/ (folded inline).

* test(group): pin destination degraded-success + precise-tier ambiguity

Adds the two regression guards koriyoshi2041 requested on PR #2269 after the
degraded-on-success fix:
- destination trace success with a degraded member: reg-fe resolves from and
  follows the link to an anonymous handler while reg-be throws; the ok result
  carries the anonymous endpoint AND the 'could not be queried' degraded note, so
  the no-to path stays aligned with explicit to traces.
- multiple PRECISE destination hits: one from reaches two consumers with resolved
  uids linked to different routes; the result is ambiguous (role: to) with both
  route candidates. Distinct from the existing file-level ambiguous test, this
  pins the stronger precise tier against a future change silently picking the
  highest-confidence destination.

Both already pass against current behavior; 716 group tests pass.

feat: add IncludeExtractor for C++ cross-repo include tracking (group) (#1156)
* feat: add IncludeExtractor for C++ cross-repo include tracking (group)

* fix: address CodeQL warnings on include-extractor

- Remove unused HEADER_GLOB constant in include-extractor.ts
- Use fs.mkdtempSync for secure temp dir creation in tests
  (CodeQL: 'Insecure temporary file')

* fix(group): close missing ); in manifest-extractor include branch

The 'include' branch in ManifestExtractor.resolveSymbol was missing
the closing ); for the executor() call, causing a syntax error that
broke ESLint, Prettier, and the full test CI on all platforms.

Reported by Claude PR review on #1156.

* chore: drop test/global-setup.ts + test/vitest.d.ts

Upstream removed these in commit 3f0c74fe (ladybugdb 0.16.0 upgrade).
Commit 3f5d21c5 accidentally restored them during a rebase dance.

* style(group): reformat VALID_CONTRACT_TYPES array to satisfy prettier

Adding 'include' pushed the array over prettier's 100-char limit,
so prettier prefers multi-line. Apply the reformat to unbreak
ci-quality/format job.

* fix(include-extractor): address PR #1156 Claude review findings #3-#7

Claude Deep Review raised 7 findings on the IncludeExtractor. #1/#2
(BLOCKERs) were fixed earlier. This commit closes the remaining five.

#3 HIGH  case-sensitive FS -> provider contract-id collision
  Document the deliberate case-folding trade-off on normalizeIncludePath
  (matches C/C++ convention on Windows/macOS; collapses Foo.h & foo.h on
  Linux). Add a unit test pinning the behavior.

#4 HIGH  suffixResolve short-suffix match silently drops cross-repo include
  When a local file ends with the same basename as an external include
  (e.g. local internal/api.h vs. #include "ext/api.h"), suffixResolve
  returned a bogus local hit and suppressed the cross-repo consumer.
  Replace the suffixResolve lookup inside include-extractor with a
  strict isLocalInclude() that only accepts full-path hits via
  SuffixIndex.get / getInsensitive. Callers of suffixResolve elsewhere
  are unaffected. Add 3 unit tests covering the regression.

#5 MEDIUM regex fallback matched #include inside /* ... */
  Strip block comments before running the fallback regex scan.
  Add a unit test.

#6 MEDIUM meta.source was hard-coded to 'tree_sitter'
  Track the actual extraction path with an extractionSource local and
  write it into meta.source so downstream audits can distinguish
  tree-sitter parses from regex fallbacks. Add 2 unit tests.

#7 MEDIUM missing end-to-end coverage
  Add test/integration/group/include-extractor-sync.test.ts with 3
  cases exercising extractor -> syncGroup -> CrossLink (mocked
  contracts, mixed-case/backslash normalization, real temp repos).

Tests: 21 unit + 3 integration, all green.

* fix(lbug): robust Windows lock acquisition for CI integration tests

LadybugDB's `new Database()` raises `Could not set lock on file` from
local_file_system.cpp synchronously inside the constructor — before any
query is issued, so `withLbugDb`'s query-time retry never sees it. On
Windows CI this surfaces as flaky integration tests due to AV-scanner
holds, libuv handle-release lag, and stale `.wal` sidecars from aborted
prior runs.

This change closes the gap at *open time*:

- `openLbugConnection` now wraps `new lbug.Database()` in a bounded
  busy-retry (5x100ms back-off) inside `lbug-config.ts`. Errors that
  exhaust the budget are tagged via `LBUG_OPEN_RETRY_EXHAUSTED` so
  `withLbugDb`'s outer 3x retry skips re-retrying a freshly-exhausted
  path (eliminates the 3x5=15-attempt / ~6s tail latency).
- For recognized test fixtures only (immediate-parent dir matches a
  known prefix AND resolves under `os.tmpdir()`), one final stale-
  sidecar sweep removes `.wal`/`.lock` and retries once. Production
  paths never enter this branch.
- `safeClose` on Windows runs a bounded `fs.open` probe to absorb
  native handle-release lag; logs a warning if the probe exhausts so
  operators can spot AV interference.
- `isDbBusyError` is now defined in `lbug-config.ts` as the single
  source of truth, re-exported from `lbug-adapter.ts` for compatibility.
- New tests cover open-time retry (happy/retry/exhaust/non-busy/tag),
  stale-sidecar sweep (test-fixture-only, production-rejection,
  preserves-original-error), `isTestFixturePath` direct unit suite
  (accept/reject/traversal/nested/trailing-sep), and
  `waitForWindowsHandleRelease` (openable/ENOENT/no-leak).
- The two new test files are added to vitest's existing serialized
  `lbug-db` project (already `fileParallelism: false`).

Closes the chronic Windows CI flake on lbug-touching integration tests
while preserving the existing single-writable-Database-per-process
LadybugDB contract. No public API surface changed.

* refactor(lbug): drop isDbBusyError re-export, import from lbug-config directly

The re-export from lbug-adapter.ts was a transitional convenience — with
the matcher now living in lbug-config.ts, having two import paths for the
same symbol invites future drift. Updated the two real consumers
(lbug-lock-retry.test.ts, lbug-open-retry.test.ts) to import from
lbug-config directly, removed the re-export equality test (now vacuous),
and refreshed the explanatory comment so it no longer references a
re-export pattern that doesn't exist.

* fix(lbug): silence benign LadybugDB v0.16.1 schema-init lock warnings on Windows

doInitLbug logs "⚠️ Schema creation warning: ... Could not set lock on
file" on every CREATE NODE TABLE call after the first init on a given
dbPath, on Windows. The lock is internal to LadybugDB v0.16.1 and is
resolved before the table is created — same tolerance pattern as the
existing "already exists" filter. Genuine cross-process lock contention
still surfaces on the next operation through withLbugDb's retry, so
filtering at the schema-init catch only suppresses noise, not signal.

Also extend the safeClose Windows handle-release probe to cover the
.wal sidecar (the previous Database's WAL handle was the slowest to
release, surfacing as the schema-query lock contention) and switch the
probe back to 'r+' so it actually detects exclusive locks.

Test loop in lbug-close-handle-release.test.ts simplified to 10 plain
iterations now that the underlying noise is filtered upstream.

* chore(lbug): isDbBusyError review fixes

- Drop redundant `could not set lock` term — already subsumed by `lock`.
- Document the intentionally-broad matcher: graph-DB lock-shaped errors
  ("deadlock", "unlock failed", "lock contention", "could not open lock
  file") are all treated as transient. If a non-transient surfaces,
  tighten the matcher rather than raise the retry budget.
- Add positive test cases covering those lock-shaped strings so the
  intent is visible and a future tightening would deliberately break
  these.
- Fix the open-retry back-off comment: max sleep is 100+200+300+400 =
  1000ms (no sleep after the final attempt), not 1.5s.

* fix(group): address PR #1156 follow-up review findings

Addresses two blockers and two mediums from the deep review.

BLOCKER 1: Windows CI ENOTEMPTY in sync.test.ts
  After this PR added writeBridge() to syncGroup, the existing test
  "writes registry to groupDir when skipWrite is false" fails on
  windows-latest. LadybugDB's checkpoint thread briefly outlives
  closeBridgeDb, holding a Win32 lock on bridge.lbug; the test's
  fs.rmSync then fails with ENOTEMPTY. Switched the test cleanup to
  cleanupTempDir from test/helpers/test-db.ts which already tolerates
  EBUSY/EPERM/EACCES/ENOTEMPTY with bounded retries — same pattern
  used elsewhere for LadybugDB-touching tests.

BLOCKER 2: Graph provider absolute-path bug
  extractProvidersGraph queried File.filePath from the LadybugDB graph
  but never stripped the repo root, so provider contract IDs ended up
  as include::/abs/path/foo.h while consumers emitted include::foo.h.
  These never matched through runExactMatch — silently producing 0
  cross-links for any indexed C++ repo (the primary use case).
  Now passes repoPath into extractProvidersGraph and applies
  path.relative(); rows that resolve outside repoPath (stale absolute
  paths from another machine, system headers somehow indexed) are
  dropped instead of polluting the registry.

MEDIUM: `../` relative includes produce spurious noise
  `#include "../foo.h"` is almost always intra-repo, but the suffix
  index can never match a `..`-prefixed path so it became a consumer
  contract no provider could satisfy. Now skipped before matching;
  covers both forward-slash and backslash forms.

MEDIUM: writeBridge error in sync.ts propagates uncaught
  contracts.json is the canonical source of truth and was just written
  successfully when writeBridge runs. A bridge-only failure (disk full,
  schema error, permission denied) shouldn't mask the registry. Wrapped
  writeBridge in try/catch with a logger.warn surfacing the path and
  recovery instructions.

Tests added:
  - extractProvidersGraph repo-relative ID generation (stub Cypher
    executor returns absolute paths)
  - extractProvidersGraph drops rows whose path resolves outside repo
  - `../foo.h` forward-slash skip
  - `..\foo.h` backslash-form skip

Skipped findings:
  - canExtract() removal (#5, low): canExtract is part of the
    ContractExtractor interface; every other extractor implements the
    same `return true` shape. Removing it from IncludeExtractor would
    break the interface contract — keeping for consistency.

* fix(group): close PR #1156 Codex adversarial findings

Two HIGH findings from the Codex adversarial review on
feat/group-include-extractor:

1. Default-on extraction silently changes existing groups (BLOCKER)
   DEFAULT_DETECT.includes was true, so any pre-existing group.yaml
   that omits the new field would gain a wave of include::* contracts
   on the next sync after upgrade. Flipped to false (opt-in). The
   integration test already declares includes: true explicitly so it
   survives unchanged; the unit extractor tests bypass parseGroupConfig
   entirely; the sync test uses extractorOverride. Only config-parser
   needed regression tests covering omitted/explicit/false variants.

2. IncludeExtractor scans outside the indexed file universe (BLOCKER)
   The extractor was running glob('**/*', { ignore: STANDARD_IGNORES })
   twice with a hand-rolled 9-pattern list, no .gitignore/.gitnexusignore
   honoring, and no max-file-size cap. That meant File:<path> contracts
   could appear for files ingestion would never index, producing
   cross-links group impact cannot fan out to (silent false-negatives).
   Refactored to a single discoverIndexableFiles() helper that mirrors
   walkRepositoryPaths exactly: createIgnoreFilter + getMaxFileSizeBytes,
   one discovery pass shared by provider and consumer paths. Dropped
   STANDARD_IGNORES and SOURCE_GLOB entirely.

   third_party and 3rdparty (the C/C++ vendored-deps conventions) were
   in the local ignore list but not in the canonical DEFAULT_IGNORE_LIST
   used by ingestion. Folded both into the canonical set rather than
   keep a parallel list — the whole point of the Codex finding is that
   two file-discovery implementations drift. Single source of truth.

Tests: 5 new regression tests for the discovery alignment (.gitignore,
.gitnexusignore, max-file-size on both provider and consumer paths)
plus 4 for the opt-in default. All 30 include-extractor tests + the
494-test group suite + ignore-service tests pass.

* fix(review): apply autofix feedback

ce-code-review surfaced 6 safe_auto findings on commit a9936a9b:

- T1 (testing, P2): the sync.ts:174 gate was untested with includes:false.
  Added a sync-level test mirroring the existing thrift-off pattern at
  sync.test.ts:545, asserting zero include contracts when the gate is
  disabled in a real syncGroup call.

- T3 (testing, P3): third_party and 3rdparty entries in DEFAULT_IGNORE_LIST
  had no regression test. Added both to ignore-service.test.ts's
  dependency-directories it.each block.

- M1 (maintainability, P3): discoverIndexableFiles JSDoc lacked a
  fork-warning relative to walkRepositoryPaths. Added a MAINTENANCE
  note explaining why the duplication is tolerated and the contract
  the two implementations must keep.

- M2 (maintainability, P3): thrift-extractor still hand-rolls its
  ignore array with no signal that DEFAULT_IGNORE_LIST additions
  silently do not apply there. Added TODO(#1156-followup) comments
  above both call sites.

- M3 (maintainability, P3): SOURCE_EXTENSIONS duplicated the four
  HEADER_EXTENSIONS entries with no expressed subset relationship.
  Spread HEADER_EXTENSIONS into SOURCE_EXTENSIONS so future header-
  extension additions propagate.

- C1+T4 (correctness+testing, P3, cross-reviewer corroborated):
  discoverIndexableFiles swallowed all fs.stat errors silently,
  including EACCES/EMFILE/EIO. Narrowed the catch to ENOENT (the
  documented benign glob/stat race) and added a logger.warn for
  any other code so operators can spot permission/resource issues.

All 629 tests pass; typecheck + prettier clean.

* fix(group): use retryRename in writeContractRegistry to absorb Windows EPERM

`storage.ts:62` used raw `fsp.rename` for the contracts.json atomic swap.
On Windows, AV scanners and concurrent renames briefly hold the
destination handle between rename calls, surfacing as EPERM/EBUSY.
The `insecure-tempfile.test.ts > concurrent writes do not collide`
test was flaking with `EPERM: operation not permitted, rename` on
windows-latest CI.

`bridge-db.ts` already has a battle-tested `retryRename(src, dst, 3)`
helper used at six call sites for exactly this pattern. Reusing it
here keeps the Windows-rename policy single-source-of-truth across
the group package.

* fix(group): drop macro-style #include from consumer contracts

Tree-sitter's `(_) @import.source` wildcard matches the identifier node
of `#include PLATFORM_HEADER`, so the cleaned value `PLATFORM_HEADER`
slipped past the system-header / `..` filters and was emitted as a
permanently orphaned consumer contract (no file is named after a macro
identifier, so no provider can ever match). Add a shape guard that
skips cleaned values lacking both a path separator and an extension
dot, plus regression tests for single and multi-macro files.

Also document `IncludeExtractor.canExtract()` as unused by sync.ts
(gated via `config.detect.includes` instead) and kept solely for
ContractExtractor interface uniformity.

255e3e79eb fix(group): address 4 HIGH-priority issues from PR #626 review
1. Path traversal via group name — add validateGroupName() with regex
   [a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*, called in getGroupDir (defense in depth)

2. gRPC proto regex can't handle nested braces — replace serviceRe with
   extractServiceBlocks() brace-depth counter (init depth=1, skip
   malformed protos)

3. Service boundary detector directory exclusions — add EXCLUDED_DIRS
   set (vendor, target, build, dist, __pycache__, .venv, venv, .tox,
   .mypy_cache, .gradle, .mvn, out, bin) replacing inline node_modules

4. Double-close of LadybugDB pools — remove blanket closeLbug() from
   cli/group.ts; sync.ts per-id cleanup is sufficient

Tests: 22 new tests across 5 files. Full suite: 4706 passed, 0 failed.

4fed097abb feat(group): add sync pipeline, CLI, MCP tools, and monorepo fixture
Wire extractors into the sync pipeline with service boundary detection.
GroupService provides high-level API for all group operations.

- Sync pipeline: orchestrates extraction (HTTP, gRPC, topics) with
  service boundary assignment and exact matching
- GroupService: groupList, groupSync, groupContracts, groupQuery,
  groupStatus (groupImpact deferred to cross-repo follow-up PR)
- CLI: group create/add/remove/list/sync/contracts/query/status
- MCP tools: group_list, group_sync, group_contracts, group_query,
  group_status
- Monorepo fixture: 3 services (auth/orders/gateway) connected via
  gRPC + Kafka + HTTP — all intra-repo cross-links discovered
- Documentation: CLI commands and MCP tools added to both READMEs
