+# Bundled Skills Registry and Chaining
+
+## Overview
+
+The bundled skills registry enables claw-code to include built-in skills with each release, similar to how bundled plugins work. This feature supports skill chaining, allowing skills to invoke and compose with other skills.
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Architecture
+
+**Bundled Skills Root Discovery**: Skills are discovered from the following locations (in order of precedence):
+
+1. `<exe_dir>/../share/claw/skills/bundled` — standard FHS install layout
+2. `<exe_dir>/bundled-skills` — simple relocated layout  
+3. `CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR/bundled` — dev/source-tree fallback
+4. Default fallback if above paths don't exist
+
+The directory structure mirrors the plugin system:
+```
+rust/crates/commands/bundled/
+├── example-skill/
+│   └── SKILL.md
+└── chain-example/
+    └── SKILL.md
+```
+
+### SkillOrigin Enum
+
+A new `Bundled` variant was added to the `SkillOrigin` enum:
+
+```rust
+enum SkillOrigin {
+    SkillsDir,           // User/project skills directories
+    LegacyCommandsDir,   // Legacy /commands directories
+    Bundled,             // Built-in bundled skills [NEW]
+}
+```
+
+### Skill Discovery
+
+The `discover_skill_roots()` function was updated to include bundled skills:
+- Bundled skills are added to the discovery roots with `SkillOrigin::Bundled`
+- They're loaded using the same mechanism as regular skills
+- Bundled skills have origin metadata ("bundled") in JSON output
+
+### Skill Chaining
+
+Skills can invoke other skills through standard mechanisms:
+
+1. **Slash Command Invocation**: A skill can document that it chains to another skill
+   ```
+   /skill chain-example
+   ```
+   
+2. **Tool-based Invocation**: Via the Skill tool or similar mechanisms
+
+Skills marked as "bundled" indicate they're managed by the claw-code release and persist across upgrades.
+
+## Example Bundled Skills
+
+### `example-skill`
+A simple demonstration skill showing the bundled skills feature.
+
+### `chain-example`  
+An example showing how one skill can reference and chain to other skills (e.g., `example-skill`).
+
+## Testing
+
+Three new tests were added:
+
+1. **`discovers_bundled_skills_from_binary_layout`**
+   - Verifies that `discover_skill_roots()` includes bundled skills
+   - Tests directory discovery logic
+
+2. **`bundled_skills_have_correct_origin_metadata`**
+   - Confirms `SkillOrigin::Bundled` generates correct metadata
+   - Tests JSON output format
+
+3. **`bundled_skills_are_included_in_json_output`**
+   - Verifies loaded bundled skills appear in JSON output
+   - Tests end-to-end loading flow
+
+All tests pass with:
+```bash
+cargo test -p commands --lib
+```
+
+## Backward Compatibility
+
+- Existing skill discovery paths unchanged
+- `SkillsDir` and `LegacyCommandsDir` origins fully preserved
+- No changes to skill file format or content
+- Bundled skills are additive; they don't replace user/project skills
+
+## Future Enhancement Points
+
+1. **Bundled Skills Registry Sync**: Auto-sync bundled skills into a system registry (similar to plugins)
+2. **Skill Dependency Resolution**: Automatic dependency discovery and loading
+3. **Skill Versioning**: Track versions of bundled skills
+4. **Skill Auto-Update**: Sync bundled skills on claw-code updates

+# GJC Compatibility Gap Matrix
+
+**Document Status**: Historical Planning Reference (updated 2026-10-13)  
+**Scope**: SDK wire protocol, session lifecycle, tools, skills, settings, hooks, commands, and AGENTS.md rules  
+**Target**: Rust fork-in-spirit of gajae-code (GJC) SDK-compatible and capability-compatible  
+**Note**: This document captures the initial compatibility analysis and proposed roadmap. Implementation details are now tracked in focused slice-specific documents (e.g., `tool-semantics-phase1.md`). Status updates reflect work merged as of 2026-10-13 (PRs #3330, #3332, #3334, #3336, #3339).
+
+---
+
+## 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
+
+This matrix maps GJC capabilities (from gajae-code) against claw-code's current Rust implementation, identifying gaps and proposing crate/module ownership for each slice.

+## 2. SDK WIRE PROTOCOL
+
+### GJC Behavior (gajae-code Reference)
+
+**Source**: `packages/coding-agent/src/sdk/client/client.ts`, `sdk/host/session-runtime.ts`
+
+GJC uses a **WebSocket-based JSON-RPC-like protocol** with:
+- **Transport**: WebSocket over TCP
+- **Frame Format**: JSON object with typed fields
+- **Correlation**: Request/response matched by `frame.id` (UUID)
+- **Operations**: 65+ operation types (Q1-Q32, C01-C06, reverse ops)
+- **Error Handling**: Typed `SdkErrorCode` with `uncertain_after_send` recovery
+- **Reconnect**: Exponential backoff with deadline management
+- **Request Timeout**: 10s default (`DEFAULT_SDK_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS`), per-request override
+- **Handshake**: `client.hello` with capabilities advertised; `server.hello` response
+
+**Operations** (sample):
+- **Control**: `turn.create`, `turn.prompt`, `turn.steer`, `turn.abort_and_prompt`
+- **Queries**: `turn.list`, `turn.get_one`, `turn.message_list`, `skill.source`, `artifact.content`
+- **Reverse**: `ask.answer`, `tool.dispatch`, `tool.fetch_capability`
+
+**Event Schema**:
+```json
+{
+  "id": "uuid-string",
+  "operation": "turn.create",
+  "input": { ... },
+  "connectionId": "optional",
+  "settings": { ... }
+}
+```
+
+### claw-code Status
+
+**Current** (as of PR #3330): Implemented. WebSocket-based JSON-RPC transport in `rust/crates/sdk/` with:
+- `transport.rs`: WebSocket client/server, frame send/recv
+- `frame.rs`: Frame struct, JSON serialization
+- `error.rs`: SDK error types with `uncertain_after_send` recovery semantics
+
+Remaining: Operation type definitions (Q1-Q32, C01-C06), reverse operation handlers, session reconciliation.
+
+**Files**: None  
+**Lines**: 0
+
+**Reality**: 
+- claw-code operates as a local CLI only (stdin/stdout/stderr).
+- Sessions are file-based (`.claw/sessions/`).
+- No remote access or external SDK clients.
+- No WebSocket transport.
+- No frame correlation or reconnect logic.
+
+### Gap Assessment

+
+## 3. SESSION LIFECYCLE
+
+### GJC Behavior (gajae-code Reference)
+
+**Source**: `packages/coding-agent/src/sdk/host/session-runtime.ts`, `sdk/client/`, `sdk/lifecycle/`
+
+GJC sessions have **three entry points**:
+1. **Native SDK** (via WebSocket): typed `SdkClient` with `session.create`, `session.prompt`, etc.
+2. **Browser ACP** (via iframe): same protocol, browser sandbox isolate
+3. **CLI Daemon** (stdio): JSON-RPC over stdio for local CLI access
+
+**Session Operations**:
+- **create**: `turn.create(model, input)` → returns `sessionId`, persistent state written to broker DB
+- **prompt**: `turn.prompt(request, tools, settings)` → streams events: `agent_begin`, `tool_use`, `tool_result`, `agent_end`
+- **steer**: `turn.steer(overrides)` → mid-flight direction change (model, settings, system prompt)
+- **abort**: `turn.abort_and_prompt()` → terminal failure + new prompt in one operation
+- **list**: `turn.list(filters)` → paginated session history
+- **get_one**: `turn.get_one(sessionId, turnId)` → single turn with full details
+
+**State Persistence**:
+- Invocation record (prompt request, outcome, correlation)
+- Message buffer (system, assistant, tool results, agent events)
+- Reconciliation store (uncertain → durable mapping)
+- Terminal scope (last session per correlation key)
+
+**Lifecycle Events**:
+1. `turn_accepted` (immediate, transient)
+2. `agent_begin` (before first model call)
+3. `tool_use` + `tool_result` (interleaved)
+4. `agent_end` (final model output)
+5. `turn_ended` (durable, terminal outcome recorded)
+
+### claw-code Status
+
+**Current** (as of PR #3330): Partial. SDK transport merged (see SDK Wire Protocol). Local session lifecycle exists in `runtime::Session`. Remaining: operation handlers, session router with durable lookup, invocation reconciliation store, terminal scope tracking.
+
+**Files**:
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/session.rs` (1,961 LOC)
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/conversation.rs` (1,878 LOC)
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/session_control.rs` (file ops, migration)
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/lib.rs` (re-exports `Session`, `SessionStore`, `ConversationRuntime`)
+
+**Lines**: ~3,900 LOC (session + conversation)
+
+**Reality**:
+- `Session` struct holds in-memory state (messages, usage, context).
+- `SessionStore` reads/writes `.claw/sessions/{id}/` directory.
+- `ConversationRuntime` drives the local agent loop (sync).
+- No WebSocket or remote access.
+- No invocation reconciliation or uncertain outcome recovery.
+- No terminal scope tracking (per-session-per-correlation).
+
+### Gap Assessment
+
+| Component | GJC | claw-code | Gap | Complexity |
+|-----------|-----|-----------|-----|------------|
+| Remote Session Router | 2,500 LOC | — | 100% | High |
+| Invocation Reconciliation | 1,200 LOC | — | 100% | High |
+| Terminal Scope Tracking | 600 LOC | — | 100% | Medium |
+| Async Event Streaming | 800 LOC | Partial | 60% | Medium |
+| Uncertain Outcome Recovery | 1,000 LOC | — | 100% | High |
+| **Total** | **6,100 LOC** | **3,900** | **2,200 LOC** | — |
+
+### Proposed Implementation
+
+**Owner Crate**: `sdk` (new, or extend `runtime`)
+
+**Module Structure** (add to `sdk/session/`):
+```
+sdk/session/
+├── router.rs            (session routing, durable lookup)
+├── reconciliation.rs    (uncertain → terminal recovery)
+├── terminal_scope.rs    (per-correlation state retention)
+└── events.rs            (event publishing, reconciliation)
+```
+
+**Integration Points**:
+- Bridge `runtime::Session` into `sdk::Session` wrapper
+- Add `runtime::SessionStore` extensions for reconciliation data
+- Extend `ConversationRuntime` with event emission
+
+**Size Estimate**: 2,500 LOC (Rust, new + modifications)

+
+## 4. TOOL CATALOG (55 Tools)
+
+### GJC Behavior (gajae-code Reference)
+
+**Source**: `packages/coding-agent/src/tools/` (55 tool files + shared harness)
+
+GJC implements **55 distinct tools** across multiple domains:
+- **File I/O**: `read`, `write`, `edit`, `search`, `find`
+- **Shell**: `bash`, `sleep`
+- **Task Delegation**: `task` (subagent spawning)
+- **Workflow**: `skill`, `skill_discovery`, `goal`, `ask`
+- **Search**: `search_tool_bm25` (semantic search discovery)
+- **Image**: `image_gen` (DALL-E), `image_tag_scan`
+- **Integration**: `web_fetch`, `web_search`, `custom_tool_fetch`
+- **Developer**: `notebook_edit`, `command_repl`, `shell_repl`, `powershell`
+- **Config**: `config_read`, `config_write` (settings, modes)
+- **Structured**: `model_registry`, `cost_calculator`, `settings_apply`
+- **Workflow Gates**: `workflow_gate_answer`, `workflow_plan_approve`
+- **Move**: `move_cwd`, `move_session`
+
+**Tool Execution Model**:
+1. Input deserialized from JSON schema
+2. Permission check (read-only vs. destructive)
+3. Tool invocation with typed inputs
+4. Structured output or error
+5. Result published to agent loop
+
+**Permission Gating**: Every tool has a `required_permission` (read-only, approve, unsafe).
+
+### claw-code Status
+
+**Current** (as of PR #3332/#3334/#3339): Partial. 35+ tools implemented.
+- PR #3332/#3334: Read tool enhanced with GJC-compatible line range selectors (`:50`, `:50-200`, `:50+150`, `:raw`, `:conflicts`, etc.)

+## 5. SKILL DISCOVERY & INVOCATION
+
+### GJC Behavior (gajae-code Reference)
+
+**Source**: `packages/coding-agent/src/tools/skill-discovery.ts`, `packages/coding-agent/src/tools/skill.ts`, `packages/coding-agent/src/sdk-skills/`
+
+GJC supports **dynamic skill loading** with:
+- **Discovery**: `skill_discovery` tool scans `.gjc/skills/`, project `.gjc/skills/`, bundled skills
+- **Frontmatter Parsing**: YAML headers in `SKILL.md` define metadata (name, description, use conditions)
+- **Invocation**: `skill` tool loads and executes a named skill (skill name + args)
+- **Skill Execution**: Skill = subprocess call to `gjc /skill:<name>` with args
+- **Bundled Skills**: `autoresearch`, `deep-interview`, `ralplan`, `ultragoal`
+- **Project Skills**: Discoverable from `.gjc/skills/*/SKILL.md`
+- **User Skills**: Discoverable from `~/.gjc/skills/*/SKILL.md`
+
+**Skill Metadata**:
+```yaml
+# /skill:my-skill
+# description: What this skill does
+# scope: project | user | bundled
+# requires: List of capabilities
+```
+
+**Skill Discovery Result**:
+```json
+{
+  "name": "skill-name",
+  "description": "...",
+  "path": "...",
+  "bundled": true | false,
+  "scope": "project" | "user" | "bundled"
+}
+```
+
+### claw-code Status
+
+**Current**: Basic. Skill discovery exists but limited to filesystem scanning.
+
+**Files**:
+- `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` (skill_discovery + skill dispatch, ~200 LOC)
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/prompt.rs` (skill loading in prompts, ~100 LOC)
+
+**Implementation**:
+- Scans `.claw/skills/` directory for `SKILL.md` files
+- Parses frontmatter (basic YAML)
+- Returns discovery results as JSON
+- `skill` tool invokes skill as subprocess
+
+**Missing**:
+- Bundled skill registry (autoresearch, deep-interview, ralplan, ultragoal)
+- Project + user skill discovery hierarchy
+- Frontmatter validation and standardization
+- Skill chaining (`skill()` tool to invoke another skill from within a skill)
+- Skill state persistence (workflow handoff)

+### GJC Behavior (gajae-code Reference)
+
+**Source**: `packages/coding-agent/src/config.ts`, `packages/coding-agent/src/sdk/host/session-runtime.ts`
+
+GJC supports **settings override** at multiple levels:
+1. **Global Settings**: `~/.gjc/config.json` (user defaults)
+2. **Session Settings**: per-session override via `turn.create` or `turn.prompt` input
+3. **Runtime Override**: `settings` field in SDK request frames
+4. **Setting Categories**: 
+   - **Model**: `modelName`, `modelTemperature`, `modelMaxTokens`
+   - **Behavior**: `allowance`, `permissions.*`, `features.*`
+   - **UX**: `theme`, `shell`, `notification*`
+   - **Advanced**: `memory.context`, `memory.compression`, `cost.*`
+
+**Config Schema**: Typed with JSON schema validation per setting
+
+**Permission Modes**: 
+- `read_only` (no execution)
+- `approve` (interactive approval)
+- `unsafe` (no gates)
+
+### claw-code Status
+
+**Current**: Partial. Config exists but no session-level override or setting propagation.
+
+**Files**:
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/config.rs` (3,894 LOC, largest file in runtime)
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/config_validate.rs` (validation helpers)
+
+**Implementation**:
+- Reads `.claw/config.json` at startup
+- Stores global settings (model, permissions, plugins, features)
+- No session-level override
+- No setting propagation through tool execution
+- No typed setting validation against schema
+
+**Missing**:
+- Per-session setting override (session-specific model, permissions)
+- Setting propagation to all tool invocations
+- Dynamic setting application (e.g., changing model mid-session)
+- Setting schema validation
+- Config hotreload (changes without restart)
+
+### Gap Assessment
+
+| Component | GJC | claw-code | Gap | Complexity |
+|-----------|-----|-----------|-----|------------|
+| Setting Schema Definition | 300 LOC | — | 100% | Low |
+| Session-Level Override | 400 LOC | — | 100% | Medium |
+| Setting Propagation | 300 LOC | — | 100% | Low |
+| Dynamic Application | 200 LOC | — | 100% | Medium |
+| Config Hotreload | 150 LOC | — | 100% | Low |
+| **Total** | **1,350 LOC** | **3,894** | **-2,544 LOC** | — |
+
+### Proposed Implementation
+
+**Owner Crate**: `runtime` (enhance existing `config.rs`)
+
+**Additions to config.rs**:
+- Setting schema registry
+- Session setting override struct
+- Setting applicator (merge global + session + override)
+- Hotreload support (watch config file, signal on change)
+
+**Size Estimate**: 500 LOC (new code, mostly schema + applicators)
+

+
+## 7. HOOKS & PLUGINS
+
+### GJC Behavior (gajae-code Reference)
+
+**Source**: `packages/coding-agent/src/hooks.ts`, `packages/coding-agent/src/plugin_lifecycle.ts`
+
+GJC provides **5 hook points**:
+- `on_session_created`: After session starts
+- `on_prompt_received`: Before agent loop begins
+- `on_tool_use`: Before tool invocation
+- `on_tool_result`: After tool completes
+- `on_session_ended`: Before session cleanup
+
+**Plugin System**:
+- Plugins are shell scripts or binaries in `.claw/plugins/`
+- Each plugin implements hook handlers (exit code + JSON output)
+- Plugin registry stored in config
+
+### claw-code Status
+
+**Current**: Existing and comprehensive.
+
+**Files**:
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/hooks.rs` (L155)
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/plugin_lifecycle.rs`
+- `rust/crates/plugins/src/` (plugin manager)
+
+**Implementation**: Hooks fully implemented; plugin system working.
+
+### Gap Assessment
+
+| Component | GJC | claw-code | Gap |
+|-----------|-----|-----------|-----|
+| Hook Points | 5 | 5 | 0% |
+| Plugin Registry | ✓ | ✓ | 0% |
+| Plugin Execution | ✓ | ✓ | 0% |
+
+**Status**: **No gaps**. Hooks and plugins are fully compatible.

+
+## 8. AGENTS.MD RULES & CONTEXT
+
+### GJC Behavior (gajae-code Reference)
+
+**Source**: gajae-code root + `docs/` (AGENTS.md files at multiple levels)
+
+GJC loads **directory-specific rules** from `AGENTS.md` files:
+- **Root AGENTS.md**: Project-level knowledge base
+- **Directory AGENTS.md**: Directory-specific rules override parent
+- **Rules Loaded**: Automatically prepended to system prompt during agent reasoning
+- **Hierarchy**: Deepest (most specific) rules override higher level
+
+**Rule Content**:
+- Code organization and conventions
+- Tool restrictions (never use X in Y context)
+- Testing requirements
+- Deployment/safety gates
+- Architecture decisions
+
+### claw-code Status
+
+**Current**: Existing and matching GJC.
+
+**Files**:
+- Root: `AGENTS.md`
+- Crate-level: `rust/crates/*/AGENTS.md`
+- Implementation: `rust/crates/runtime/src/` (loads rules)
+
+**Implementation**: Rules loaded and applied to prompts.
+
+### Gap Assessment
+
+| Component | GJC | claw-code | Gap |
+|-----------|-----|-----------|-----|
+| Rule Loading | ✓ | ✓ | 0% |
+| Hierarchy | ✓ | ✓ | 0% |
+| Prompt Integration | ✓ | ✓ | 0% |
+
+**Status**: **No gaps**. AGENTS.md system is compatible.

+## 9. SLASH COMMANDS (120+ Commands)
+
+### GJC Behavior (gajae-code Reference)
+
+**Source**: `packages/coding-agent/src/commands/lib.ts` (7,200 LOC with 120+ command specs)
+
+GJC implements **120+ slash commands** for REPL interaction:
+- **Session**: `/session list`, `/session create`, `/session restore`, `/session delete`
+- **Model**: `/model set`, `/model list`, `/model info`
+- **Permissions**: `/permissions set`, `/permissions show`

+
+**Command Format**: `/command [arg1] [arg2] ...` with arg parsing per command
+
+### claw-code Status
+
+**Current** (as of PR #3339): Partial. ~42 commands implemented out of 120+.
+- PR #3339: Added `/tools` and `/info` commands
+- Remaining: /model set/list, /theme, /cost, /dump, /trace, /tasks list/cancel, workflow commands (/plan, /review, /ultragoal), and others
+
+**Files**:

+## 10. SUBAGENT DELEGATION & TASK EXECUTION
+
+### GJC Behavior (gajae-code Reference)
+
+**Source**: `packages/coding-agent/src/tools/task.ts`, `packages/coding-agent/src/task/`
+
+GJC's **subagent system** enables parallel task execution:
+- **task Tool**: Spawn parallel subtasks with independent context
+- **Task States**: spawning, running, succeeded, failed
+- **Task Isolation**: Each task has isolated session, permissions, context
+- **Task Coordination**: `irc` tool for live inter-task communication
+- **Task Monitoring**: `task.inspect`, `task.list`, `task.cancel`
+- **Artifact Sharing**: Tasks share artifact URLs but not direct state
+
+**Task Spawning**:
+```json
+{
+  "agent": "executor|architect|planner",
+  "tasks": [
+    {
+      "id": "task-1",
+      "description": "...",
+      "assignment": "..."
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### claw-code Status
+
+**Current**: Existing and working.
+
+**Files**:
+- `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` (task tool, ~300 LOC)
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/task_*.rs` (task execution, state mgmt)
+
+**Implementation**: Task tool works; spawning, monitoring, and coordination functional.
+
+### Gap Assessment

+## 13. RISK & MITIGATION
+
+| Risk | Probability | Severity | Mitigation |
+|------|-------------|----------|-----------|
+| SDK protocol complexity | High | High | Start with mock transport tests, iterate on real scenarios |
+| Session state inconsistency | Medium | High | Comprehensive reconciliation tests, durable state verification |
+| Tool compatibility gaps | Medium | Medium | Tool-by-tool comparison with GJC, shadow testing |
+| Breaking changes to runtime | Medium | High | Version gates, feature flags, phased rollout |
+| Performance regression | Medium | Medium | Benchmark key paths (session create, tool dispatch), profile |
+

+//! Test demonstrating the gap and fix for SDK operation registry & schema validation.
+//!
+//! This test file reproduces issue #3321 - Slice 1.2: SDK operation registry & schema validation.
+//!
+//! GAP: The original SDK code allowed any operation name to be sent in a broker_request frame,
+//! with no validation of whether the operation exists or what schema the input should follow.
+//!
+//! FIX: The new OperationRegistry provides:
+//! - A registry of valid operations
+//! - Schema validation for operation inputs/outputs
+//! - Discovery of available operations
