CC2-RM-A0049-plugins-hooks-collects-and-runs-hooks-fr

Title: plugins::hooks::collects_and_runs_hooks_from_enabled_plugins flaked on Linux CI, root cause was a stdin-write race not missing exec bit — done at 172a2ad on 2026-04-08. Dogfooding reproduced this four times on main (CI runs 24120271422, 24120538408, 24121392171, 24121776826), escalating from first-attempt-flake to deterministic-red on the third push. Failure mode was PostToolUse hook .../hooks/post.sh failed to start for "Read": Broken pipe (os error 32) surfacing from HookRunResult. Initial diagnosis was wrong. The first theory (documented in earlier revisions of this entry and in the root-cause note on commit 79da4b8) was that write_hook_plugin in rust/crates/plugins/src/hooks.rs was writing the generated .sh files without the execute bit and Command::new(path).spawn() was racing on fork/exec. An initial chmod-only fix at 4f7b674 was shipped against that theory and still failed CI on run 24121776826 with the same Broken pipe symptom, falsifying the chmod-only hypothesis. Actual root cause. CommandWithStdin::output_with_stdin in rust/crates/plugins/src/hooks.rs was unconditionally propagating write_all errors on the child's stdin pipe, including std::io::ErrorKind::BrokenPipe. The test hook scripts run in microseconds (#!/bin/sh + a single printf), so the child exits and closes its stdin before the parent finishes writing the ~200-byte JSON hook payload. On Linux the pipe raises EPIPE immediately; on macOS the pipe happens to buffer the small payload before the child exits, which is why the race only surfaced on ubuntu CI runners. The parent's write_all returned Err(BrokenPipe), output_with_stdin returned that as a hook failure, and run_command classified the hook as "failed to start" even though the child had already run to completion and printed the expected message to stdout. Fix (commit 172a2ad, force-pushed over 4f7b674). Three parts: (1) actual fix — output_with_stdin now matches the write_all result and swallows BrokenPipe specifically, while propagating all other write errors unchanged; after a BrokenPipe swallow the code still calls wait_with_output() so stdout/stderr/exit code are still captured from the cleanly-exited child. (2) hygiene hardening — a new make_executable helper sets mode 0o755 on each generated .sh via std::os::unix::fs::PermissionsExt under #[cfg(unix)]. This is defense-in-depth for future non-sh hook runners, not the bug that was biting CI. (3) regression guard — new generated_hook_scripts_are_executable test under #[cfg(unix)] asserts each generated .sh file has at least one execute bit set (mode & 0o111 != 0) so future tweaks cannot silently regress the hygiene change. Verification. cargo test --release -p plugins 35 passing, fmt clean, clippy -D warnings clean; CI run 24121999385 went green on first attempt on main for the hotfix commit. Meta-lesson. Broken pipe (os error 32) from a child-process spawn path is ambiguous between "could not exec" and "exec'd and exited before the parent finished writing stdin." The first theory cargo-culted the "could not exec" reading because the ROADMAP scaffolding anchored on the exec-bit guess; falsification came from empirical CI, not from code inspection. Record the pattern: when a pipe error surfaces on fork/exec, instrument what wait_with_output() actually reports on the child before attributing the failure to a permissions or issue.

Title: Resumed local-command JSON parity gap — done: direct claw --output-format json already had structured renderers for sandbox, mcp, skills, version, and init, but resumed claw --output-format json --resume <session> /… paths still fell back to prose because resumed slash dispatch only emitted JSON for /status.

Title: dev/rust cargo test -p rusty-claude-cli reads host ~/.claude/plugins/installed/ from real $HOME and fails parse-time on any half-installed user plugin — dogfooding on 2026-04-08 (filed from gaebal-gajae's clawhip bullet at message 1491322807026454579 after the provider-matrix branch QA surfaced it) reproduced 11 deterministic failures on clean dev/rust HEAD of the form panicked at crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs:3953:31: args should parse: "hook path \/Users/yeongyu/.claude/plugins/installed/sample-hooks-bundled/./hooks/pre.sh` does not exist; hook path `...\post.sh` does not exist"coveringparses_prompt_subcommand, parses_permission_mode_flag, defaults_to_repl_when_no_args, parses_resume_flag_with_slash_command, parses_system_prompt_options, parses_bare_prompt_and_json_output_flag, rejects_unknown_allowed_tools, parses_resume_flag_with_multiple_slash_commands, resolves_model_aliases_in_args, parses_allowed_tools_flags_with_aliases_and_lists, parses_login_and_logout_subcommands. **Same failures do NOT reproduce on main** (re-verified with cargo test --release -p rusty-claude-cliagainstmainHEAD79da4b8, all 156 tests pass). **Root cause is two-layered.** First, on dev/rust parse_argseagerly walks user-installed plugin manifests under~~/.claude/plugins/installed/and validates that every declared hook script exists on disk before returning aCliAction, so any half-installed plugin in the developer's real $HOME(in this case~~/.claude/plugins/installed/sample-hooks-bundled/whose.claude-pluginmanifest references./hooks/pre.shand./hooks/post.shbut whosehooks/subdirectory was deleted) makes argv parsing itself fail. Second, the test harness ondev/rustdoes not redirect$HOMEorXDG_CONFIG_HOMEto a fixture for the duration of the test — there is noenv_lock-style guard equivalent to the one main already uses (grep -n env_lock rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rsreturns 0 hits ondev/rustand 30+ hits onmain). Together those two gaps mean dev/rust cargo test -p rusty-claude-cliis non-deterministic on every clean clone whose owner happens to have any non-pristine plugin in~/.claude/. **Action (two parts).** (a) Backport the env_lock-based test isolation pattern from mainintodev/rust's rusty-claude-clitest module so each test runs against a temp$HOME/XDG_CONFIG_HOMEand cannot read host plugin state. (b) Decoupleparse_argsfrom filesystem hook validation ondev/rust(the same decoupling already onmain, where hook validation happens later in the lifecycle than argv parsing) so even outside tests a partially installed user plugin cannot break basic CLI invocation. **Branch scope.** This is a dev/rustcatchup againstmain, not a main` regression. Tracking it here so the dev/rust merge train picks it up before the next dev/rust release rather than rediscovering it in CI.

CC2-RM-A0052-auth-provider-truth-error-copy-fails-rea

Title: Auth-provider truth: error copy fails real users at the env-var-vs-header layer — dogfooded live on 2026-04-08 in #claw-code (Sisyphus Labs guild), two separate new users hit adjacent failure modes within minutes of each other that both trace back to the same root: the MissingApiKey / 401 error surface does not teach users how the auth inputs map to HTTP semantics, so a user who sets a "reasonable-looking" env var still hits a hard error with no signpost. Case 1 (varleg, Norway). Wanted to use OpenRouter via the OpenAI-compat path. Found a comparison table claiming "provider-agnostic (Claude, OpenAI, local models)" and assumed it Just Worked. Set OPENAI_API_KEY to an OpenRouter sk-or-v1-... key and a model name without an openai/ prefix; claw's provider detection fell through to Anthropic first because ANTHROPIC_API_KEY was still in the environment. Unsetting ANTHROPIC_API_KEY got them ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is not set instead of a useful hint that the OpenAI path was right there. Fix delivered live as a channel reply: use main branch (not dev/rust), export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://openrouter.ai/api/v1 alongside OPENAI_API_KEY, and prefix the model name with openai/ so the prefix router wins over env-var presence. Case 2 (stanley078852). Had set ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="sk-ant-..." and was getting 401 Invalid bearer token from Anthropic. Root cause: sk-ant- keys are x-api-key-header keys, not bearer tokens. ANTHROPIC_API_KEY path in anthropic.rs sends the value as x-api-key; ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN path sends it as Authorization: Bearer (for OAuth access tokens from claw login). Setting an sk-ant- key in the wrong env var makes claw send it as Bearer sk-ant-... which Anthropic rejects at the edge with 401 before it ever reaches the completions endpoint. The error text propagated all the way to the user (api returned 401 Unauthorized (authentication_error) ... Invalid bearer token) with zero signal that the problem was env-var choice, not key validity. Fix delivered live as a channel reply: move the sk-ant-... key to ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and unset ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN. Pattern. Both cases are failures at the auth-intent translation layer: the user chose an env var that made syntactic sense to them (OPENAI_API_KEY for OpenAI, ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN for Anthropic auth) but the actual wire-format routing requires a more specific choice. The error messages surface the HTTP-layer symptom (401, missing-key) without bridging back to "which env var should you have used and why." Action. Three concrete improvements, scoped for a single main-side PR: (a) In ApiError::MissingCredentials Display, when the Anthropic path is the one being reported but OPENAI_API_KEY, XAI_API_KEY, or DASHSCOPE_API_KEY are present in the environment, extend the message with "— but I see $OTHER_KEY set; if you meant to use that provider, prefix your model name with openai/, grok, or qwen/ respectively so prefix routing selects it." (b) In the 401-from-Anthropic error path in anthropic.rs, when the failing auth source is BearerToken AND the bearer token starts with sk-ant-, append "— looks like you put an sk-ant-* API key in ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, which is the Bearer-header path. Move it to ANTHROPIC_API_KEY instead (that env var maps to x-api-key, which is the correct header for sk-ant-* keys)." Same treatment for OAuth access tokens landing in ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (symmetric mis-assignment). (c) In rust/README.md on main and the matrix section on dev/rust, add a short "Which env var goes where" paragraph mapping sk-ant-* → ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and OAuth access token → ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, with the one-line explanation of x-api-key vs Authorization: Bearer. Verification path. Both improvements can be tested with unit tests against ApiError::fmt output (the prefix-routing hint) and with a targeted integration test that feeds an sk-ant-*-shaped token into BearerToken and asserts the fmt output surfaces the correction hint (no HTTP call needed). Source. Live users in #claw-code at 1491328554598924389 (varleg) and 1491329840706486376 (stanley078852) on 2026-04-08. Partial landing (ff1df4c). Action parts (a), (b), (c) shipped on main: MissingCredentials now carries an optional hint field and renders adjacent-provider signals, Anthropic 401 + sk-ant-* bearer gets a correction hint, USAGE.md has a "Which env var goes where" section. BUT the copy fix only helps users who fell through to the Anthropic auth path by accident — it does NOT fix the underlying routing bug where the CLI instantiates AnthropicRuntimeClient unconditionally and ignores prefix routing at the runtime-client layer. That deeper routing gap is tracked separately as #29 below and was filed within hours of #28 landing when live users still hit missing Anthropic credentials with --model openai/gpt-4 and all ANTHROPIC_* env vars unset.

CC2-RM-A0053-cli-provider-dispatch-is-hardcoded-to-an

Title: CLI provider dispatch is hardcoded to Anthropic, ignoring prefix routing — done at 8dc6580 on 2026-04-08. Changed AnthropicRuntimeClient.client from concrete AnthropicClient to ApiProviderClient (the api crate's ProviderClient enum), which dispatches to Anthropic / xAI / OpenAi at construction time based on detect_provider_kind(&resolved_model). 1 file, +59 −7, all 182 rusty-claude-cli tests pass, CI green at run 24125825431. Users can now run claw --model openai/gpt-4.1-mini prompt "hello" with only OPENAI_API_KEY set and it routes correctly. Original filing below for the trace record. Dogfooded live on 2026-04-08 within hours of ROADMAP #28 landing. Users in #claw-code (nicma at 1491342350960562277, Jengro at 1491345009021030533) followed the exact "use main, set OPENAI_API_KEY and OPENAI_BASE_URL, unset ANTHROPIC_*, prefix the model with openai/" checklist from the #28 error-copy improvements AND STILL hit error: missing Anthropic credentials; export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY before calling the Anthropic API. Reproduction on main HEAD ff1df4c: unset ANTHROPIC_API_KEY ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN; export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...; export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.openai.com/v1; claw --model openai/gpt-4 prompt 'test' → reproduces the error deterministically. Root cause (traced). rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs at build_runtime_with_plugin_state (line ~6221) unconditionally builds AnthropicRuntimeClient::new(session_id, model, ...) without consulting providers::detect_provider_kind(&model). BuiltRuntime at line ~2855 is statically typed as ConversationRuntime<AnthropicRuntimeClient, CliToolExecutor>, so even if the dispatch logic existed there would be nowhere to slot an alternative client. providers/mod.rs::metadata_for_model correctly identifies openai/gpt-4 as ProviderKind::OpenAi at the metadata layer — the routing decision is computed correctly, it's just never used to pick a runtime client. The result is that the CLI is structurally single-provider (Anthropic only) even though the api crate's openai_compat.rs, XAI_ENV_VARS, DASHSCOPE_ENV_VARS, and send_message_streaming all exist and are exercised by unit tests inside the api crate. The provider matrix in rust/README.md is misleading because it describes the api-crate capabilities, not the CLI's actual dispatch behaviour. Why #28 didn't catch this. ROADMAP #28 focused on the MissingCredentials error message (adding hints when adjacent provider env vars are set, or when a bearer token starts with sk-ant-*). None of its tests exercised the build_runtime code path — they were all unit tests against ApiError::fmt output. The routing bug survives #28 because the Display improvements fire AFTER the hardcoded Anthropic client has already been constructed and failed. You need the CLI to dispatch to a different client in the first place for the new hints to even surface at the right moment. Action (single focused commit). (1) New OpenAiCompatRuntimeClient struct in rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs mirroring AnthropicRuntimeClient but delegating to openai_compat::send_message_streaming. One client type handles OpenAI, xAI, DashScope, and any OpenAI-compat endpoint — they differ only in base URL and auth env var, both of which come from the ProviderMetadata returned by metadata_for_model. (2) New enum DynamicApiClient { Anthropic(AnthropicRuntimeClient), OpenAiCompat(OpenAiCompatRuntimeClient) } that implements runtime::ApiClient by matching on the variant and delegating. (3) Retype BuiltRuntime from ConversationRuntime<AnthropicRuntimeClient, CliToolExecutor> to ConversationRuntime<DynamicApiClient, CliToolExecutor>, update the Deref/DerefMut/new spots. (4) In build_runtime_with_plugin_state, call detect_provider_kind(&model) and construct either variant of DynamicApiClient. Prefix routing wins over env-var presence (that's the whole point). (5) Integration test using a mock OpenAI-compat server (reuse mock_parity_harness pattern from crates/api/tests/) that feeds claw --model openai/gpt-4 prompt 'test' with OPENAI_BASE_URL pointed at the mock and no ANTHROPIC_* env vars, asserts the request reaches the mock, and asserts the response round-trips as an AssistantEvent. (6) Unit test that build_runtime_with_plugin_state with model="openai/gpt-4" returns a BuiltRuntime whose inner client is the DynamicApiClient::OpenAiCompat variant.

CC2-RM-A0054-immediate-backlog-visibility-gap-active

Title: Immediate-backlog visibility gap: active dogfood pinpoints are easy to rediscover because ROADMAP lacks a concise in-progress board — dogfooding on 2026-04-21 surfaced a softer but recurring clawability failure: there are real active branches/sessions (claw-code-issue-21-resumed-status-json, claw-code-issue-24-plugin-lifecycle-flake, claw-code-issue-33-xai-integration), but a claw doing a fresh sweep still has to scrape tmux names, branch diffs, and long-form ROADMAP prose to answer a simple question: "what pinpoint is already active right now, and what delta is in flight?" The result is rediscovery churn, duplicate reporting, and weak handoff quality even when the actual engineering work is already moving. Concrete gap. ROADMAP.md has rich long-form entries and a large done/archive surface, but no compact machine-friendly In Progress Now section that binds {roadmap_id, pinpoint, owner/session, branch, status, blocker}. Action. Add a small top-of-file/current-work section (or generated JSON companion) that lists only active dogfood items with stable ids and lifecycle state, and require dogfood updates to reference that id when reporting progress. Minimum fields: item id, lifecycle state, current session/branch, one-line delta, blocker/none, last-updated timestamp. Acceptance. A fresh claw can answer "what is active now?" from one short section without scraping panes, and repeat dogfood nudges can distinguish already in progress from new pinpoint automatically.

Title: DashScope model routing in ProviderClient dispatch uses wrong config — done at adcea6b on 2026-04-08. ProviderClient::from_model_with_anthropic_auth dispatched all ProviderKind::OpenAi matches to OpenAiCompatConfig::openai() (reads OPENAI_API_KEY, points at api.openai.com). But DashScope models (qwen-plus, qwen/qwen-max) return ProviderKind::OpenAi because DashScope speaks the OpenAI wire format — they need OpenAiCompatConfig::dashscope() (reads DASHSCOPE_API_KEY, points at dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1). Fix: consult metadata_for_model in the OpenAi dispatch arm and pick dashscope() vs openai() based on metadata.auth_env. Adds regression test + pub base_url() accessor. 2 files, +94/−3.

CC2-RM-A0068-code-on-disk-verified-commit-lands-depen

Title: code-on-disk → verified commit lands depends on undocumented executor quirks — dogfooded 2026-04-08 during live fix session. Three hidden contracts tripped the "last mile" path when using droid via acpx in the claw-code workspace: (a) hidden CWD contract — droid's terminal/create rejects cd /path && cargo build compound commands with spawn ENOENT; callers must pass --cwd or split commands; (b) hidden commit-message transport limit — embedding a multi-line commit message in a single shell invocation hits ENAMETOOLONG; workaround is git commit -F <file> but the caller must know to write the file first; (c) hidden workspace lint/edition contract — unsafe_code = "forbid" workspace-wide with Rust 2021 edition makes unsafe {} wrappers incorrect for set_var/remove_var, but droid generates Rust 2024-style unsafe blocks without inspecting the workspace Cargo.toml or clippy config. Each of these required the orchestrator to learn the constraint by failing, then switching strategies. Acceptance bar: a fresh agent should be able to verify/commit/push a correct diff in this workspace without needing to know executor-specific shell trivia ahead of time. Fix shape: (1) run-acpx.sh-style wrapper that normalizes the commit idiom (always writes to temp file, sets --cwd, splits compound commands); (2) inject workspace constraints into the droid/acpx task preamble (edition, lint gates, known shell executor quirks) so the model doesn't have to discover them from failures; (3) or upstream a fix to the executor itself so cd /path && cmd chains work correctly.

Title: Hook JSON failure opacity: invalid hook output does not surface the offending payload/context — dogfooding on 2026-04-13 in the live clawcode-human lane repeatedly hit PreToolUse/PostToolUse/Stop hook returned invalid ... JSON output while the operator had no immediate visibility into which hook emitted malformed JSON, what raw stdout/stderr came back, or whether the failure was hook-formatting breakage vs prompt-misdelivery fallout. This turns a recoverable hook/schema bug into generic lane fog. Impact. Lanes look blocked/noisy, but the event surface is too lossy to classify whether the next action is fix the hook serializer, retry prompt delivery, or ignore a harmless hook-side warning. Concrete delta landed now. Recorded as an Immediate Backlog item so the failure is tracked explicitly instead of disappearing into channel scrollback. Recommended fix shape: when hook JSON parse fails, emit a typed hook failure event carrying hook phase/name, command/path, exit status, and a redacted raw stdout/stderr preview (bounded + safe), plus a machine class like hook_invalid_json. Add regression coverage for malformed-but-nonempty hook output so the surfaced error includes the preview instead of only invalid ... JSON output.

Title: OpenAI-compatible provider/model-id passthrough is not fully literal — dogfooded 2026-04-08 via live user in #claw-code who confirmed the exact backend model id works outside claw but fails through claw for an OpenAI-compatible endpoint. The gap: openai/ prefix is correctly used for transport selection (pick the OpenAI-compat client) but the wire model id — the string placed in "model": "..." in the JSON request body — may not be the literal backend model string the user supplied. Two candidate failure modes: (a) resolve_model_alias() is called on the model string before it reaches the wire — alias expansion designed for Anthropic/known models corrupts a user-supplied backend-specific id; (b) the openai/ routing prefix may not be stripped before build_chat_completion_request packages the body, so backends receive openai/gpt-4 instead of gpt-4. Fix shape: cleanly separate transport selection from wire model id. Transport selection uses the prefix; wire model id is the user-supplied string minus only the routing prefix — no alias expansion, no prefix leakage. Trace path for next session: (1) find where resolve_model_alias() is called relative to the OpenAI-compat dispatch path; (2) inspect what build_chat_completion_request puts in "model" for an openai/some-backend-id input.

CC2-RM-A0072-openai-responses-endpoint-rejects-claw-s

Title: OpenAI /responses endpoint rejects claw's tool schema: object schema missing properties / invalid_function_parameters — done at e7e0fd2 on 2026-04-09. Added normalize_object_schema() in openai_compat.rs which recursively walks JSON Schema trees and injects "properties": {} and "additionalProperties": false on every object-type node (without overwriting existing values). Called from openai_tool_definition() so both /chat/completions and /responses receive strict-validator-safe schemas. 3 unit tests added. All api tests pass. Original filing below.

CC2-RM-A0073-openai-responses-endpoint-rejects-claw-s

Title: OpenAI /responses endpoint rejects claw's tool schema: object schema missing properties / invalid_function_parameters — dogfooded 2026-04-08 via live user in #claw-code. Repro: startup succeeds, provider routing succeeds (Connected: gpt-5.4 via openai), but request fails when claw sends tool/function schema to a /responses-compatible OpenAI backend. Backend rejects StructuredOutput with object schema missing properties and invalid_function_parameters. This is distinct from the #32 model-id passthrough issue — routing and transport work correctly. The failure is at the schema validation layer: claw's tool schema is acceptable for /chat/completions but not strict enough for /responses endpoint validation. Sharp next check: emit what schema claw sends for StructuredOutput tool functions, compare against OpenAI /responses spec for strict JSON schema validation (required properties object, additionalProperties: false, etc). Likely fix: add missing properties: {} on object types, ensure additionalProperties: false is present on all object schemas in the function tool JSON.

Title: reasoning_effort / budget_tokens not surfaced on OpenAI-compat path — done (verified 2026-04-11): current main already carries the Rust-side OpenAI-compat parity fix. MessageRequest now includes reasoning_effort: Option<String> in rust/crates/api/src/types.rs, build_chat_completion_request() emits "reasoning_effort" in rust/crates/api/src/providers/openai_compat.rs, and the CLI threads --reasoning-effort low|medium|high through to the API client in rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs. The OpenAI-side parity target here is reasoning_effort; Anthropic-only budget_tokens remains handled on the Anthropic path. Re-verified on current origin/main / HEAD 2d5f836: cargo test -p api reasoning_effort -- --nocapture passes (2 passed), and cargo test -p rusty-claude-cli reasoning_effort -- --nocapture passes (2 passed).

CC2-RM-A0075-reasoning-effort-budget-tokens-not-surfa

Title: reasoning_effort / budget_tokens not surfaced on OpenAI-compat path — dogfooded 2026-04-09. Users asking for "reasoning effort parity with opencode" are hitting a structural gap: MessageRequest in rust/crates/api/src/types.rs has no reasoning_effort or budget_tokens field, and build_chat_completion_request in openai_compat.rs does not inject either into the request body. This means passing --thinking or equivalent to an OpenAI-compat reasoning model (e.g. o4-mini, deepseek-r1, any model that accepts reasoning_effort) silently drops the field — the model runs without the requested effort level, and the user gets no warning. Contrast with Anthropic path: anthropic.rs already maps thinking config into anthropic.thinking.budget_tokens in the request body. Fix shape: (a) Add optional reasoning_effort: Option<String> field to MessageRequest; (b) In build_chat_completion_request, if reasoning_effort is Some, emit "reasoning_effort": value in the JSON body; (c) In the CLI, wire --thinking low/medium/high or equivalent to populate the field when the resolved provider is ProviderKind::OpenAi; (d) Add unit test asserting reasoning_effort appears in the request body when set.

Title: Dead-session opacity: bot cannot self-detect compaction vs broken tool surface -- dogfooded 2026-04-09. Jobdori session spent ~15h declaring itself "dead" in-channel while tools were actually returning correct results within each turn. Root cause: context compaction causes tool outputs to be summarised away between turns, making the bot interpret absence-of-remembered-output as tool failure. This is a distinct failure mode from ROADMAP #31 (executor quirks): the session is alive and tools are functional, but the agent cannot tell the difference between "my last tool call produced no output" (compaction) and "the tool is broken". Done (verified 2026-04-11): ConversationRuntime::run_turn() now runs a post-compaction session-health probe through glob_search, fails fast with a targeted recovery error if the tool surface is broken, and skips the probe for a freshly compacted empty session. Fresh regression coverage proves both the failure gate and the empty-session bypass.

When an installed plugin has a broken manifest (missing hook scripts, parse errors, bad json), the plugin silently fails to load and the user sees nothing — no warning, no list entry, no hint. Related to ROADMAP #27 (host plugin path leaking into tests) but at the user-facing surface: the test gap and the UX gap are siblings of the same root. Done (verified 2026-04-11): PluginManager::plugin_registry_report() and installed_plugin_registry_report() now preserve valid plugins while collecting PluginLoadFailures, and the command-layer renderer emits a Warnings: block for broken plugins instead of silently hiding them.

Companion to #40: the test sealing gap is the CI/developer side of the same root — host ~/.claude/plugins/installed/ bleeds into CLI test runs, making regression checks non-deterministic on any machine with a non-pristine plugin install. Closely related to ROADMAP #27 (dev/rust cargo test reads host plugin state). Done (verified 2026-04-11): the plugins crate now carries dedicated test-isolation helpers in rust/crates/plugins/src/test_isolation.rs, and regression claw_config_home_isolation_prevents_host_plugin_leakage() proves CLAW_CONFIG_HOME isolation prevents host plugin state from leaking into installed-plugin discovery during tests.

User running workspace-write session mode (tanishq_devil in #claw-code) had to use danger-full-access even for simple in-workspace reads via PowerShell (e.g. Get-Content). Root cause traced by gaebal-gajae: PowerShell tool spec is registered with required_permission: PermissionMode::DangerFullAccess (same as the bash tool in mvp_tool_specs), not with per-command workspace-awareness. Bash shell and PowerShell execute arbitrary commands, so blanket promotion to danger-full-access is conservative — but it over-escalates read-only in-workspace operations. Fix shape: (a) add command-level heuristic analysis to the PowerShell executor (read-only commands like Get-Content, Get-ChildItem, Test-Path that target paths inside CWD → WorkspaceWrite required; everything else → DangerFullAccess); (b) mirror the same workspace-path check that the bash executor uses; (c) add tests covering the permission boundary for PowerShell read vs write vs network commands. Note: the bash tool in mvp_tool_specs is also DangerFullAccess and has the same gap — both should be fixed together.

User runs cargo install claw-code, install succeeds, Cargo places claw-code-deprecated.exe, user runs claw and gets command not found. The deprecated binary only prints "claw-code has been renamed to agent-code". The success signal is false-positive: install appears to work but leaves the user with no working claw binary. Fix shape: (a) README must warn explicitly against cargo install claw-code with the hyphen (current note only warns about clawcode without hyphen); (b) if the deprecated crate is in our control, update its binary to print a clearer redirect message including cargo install agent-code; (c) ensure the Windows setup doc path mentions agent-code explicitly.

CC2-RM-A0097-cargo-install-agent-code-produces-agent

Title: cargo install agent-code produces agent.exe, not agent-code.exe — binary name mismatch in docs — dogfooded 2026-04-10 via #claw-code. User follows the claw-code rename hint to run cargo install agent-code, install succeeds, but the installed binary is agent.exe (Unix: agent), not agent-code or agent-code.exe. User tries agent-code --version, gets command not found, concludes install is broken. The package name (agent-code), the crate name, and the installed binary name (agent) are all different. Fix shape: docs must show the full chain explicitly: cargo install agent-code → run via agent (Unix) / agent.exe (Windows). ROADMAP #52 note updated with corrected binary name.

Title: Circular "Did you mean /X?" error for spec-registered commands with no parse arm — dogfooded 2026-04-10. 23 commands in the spec (shown in /help output) had no parse arm in validate_slash_command_input, so typing them produced "Unknown slash command: /X — Did you mean /X?". The "Did you mean" suggestion pointed at the exact command the user just typed. Root cause: spec registration and parse-arm implementation were independent — a command could appear in help and completions without being parseable. Done at 1e14d59 2026-04-10: added all 23 to STUB_COMMANDS and added pre-parse intercept in resume dispatch. Source: Jobdori dogfood.

Done at 1ecdb10 2026-04-10: OPENAI_BASE_URL + OPENAI_API_KEY now beats Anthropic env-check. OPENAI_BASE_URL alone (no key, e.g. Ollama) is last-resort before Anthropic default.

Discovered +410 lines of "late-arriving" droid output that appeared after I had already assessed 8 sessions as "no code produced." This creates false-negative assessments and duplicate work. Fix shape: (a) droid agent should only report completion after explicit file-write confirmation (fsync or existence check); (b) or, claw-code should expose a pending_writes status that indicates "agent responded, disk flush pending"; (c) lane orchestrators should poll for file changes for N seconds after completion before final assessment.

ROADMAP #64 made the current status explicit via claw acp, but editor-first users still cannot actually launch claw-code as an ACP/Zed daemon because there is no protocol-serving surface yet.

Acceptance bar: an editor can launch claw-code for ACP/Zed from a documented, supported command rather than a status-only alias.

Two session error messages advertise .claw/sessions/ as the managed-session location, but the real on-disk layout (rust/crates/runtime/src/session_control.rs:32-40 — SessionStore::from_cwd) places sessions under .claw/sessions/<workspace_fingerprint>/ where workspace_fingerprint() at line 295-303 is a 16-char FNV-1a hex hash of the absolute CWD path.

The Workspace block in claw status advertises a single Project root derived from the git toplevel, but SessionStore::from_cwd at rust/crates/runtime/src/session_control.rs:32-40 uses the raw CWD path as input to workspace_fingerprint() (line 295-303), not the project root. The result: two invocations in the same git repo but different CWDs (~/clawd/claw-code vs ~/clawd/claw-code/rust, or /tmp/claw-split-17 vs /tmp/claw-split-17/sub) report the same Project root in claw status but land in two separate .claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/ dirs that cannot see each other's sessions. claw --resume latest from one subdir returns no managed sessions found even though the adjacent CWD in the same project has a live session that /session list from that CWD resolves fine.

A malicious local user (or a runaway build artifact, or a curl | sh installer that dropped /tmp/CLAUDE.md by accident) sets up the injection for every claw invocation under /tmp/anything until someone notices.

Title: Two user-visible shapes for one intended contract. The /session list REPL command presents session ids as session-1776441782197-0. Operators naturally try --resume session-1776441782197-0 (works) and --resume session-1776441782197-0.jsonl (silently breaks). The mental model "it's a file; I'll add the extension" is wrong, and nothing in the error message (session not found: session-1776441782197-0.jsonl) explains that the extension silently switched the lookup mode.

CC2-RM-A0252-compact-is-silently-ignored-outside-the

Title: --compact is silently ignored outside the Prompt → Text path: --compact --output-format json (explicitly documented as "text mode only" in --help but unenforced), --compact status, --compact doctor, --compact sandbox, --compact init, --compact export, --compact mcp, --compact skills, --compact agents, and claw --compact with piped stdin (hardcoded compact: false at the stdin fallthrough). No error, no warning, no diagnostic trace anywhere — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD 7a172a2 from /tmp/cdM. --help at main.rs:8251 explicitly documents "--compact (text mode only; useful for piping)"; the implementation knows the flag is only meaningful for the text branch of the prompt turn output, but does not refuse or warn in any other case. A claw piping output through claw --compact --output-format json prompt "..." gets the same verbose JSON blob as without the flag, silently, with no indication that its documented behavior was discarded.

CC2-RM-A0253-documented-behavior-silently-discarded-h

Title: Documented behavior, silently discarded. --help tells operators the flag applies in "text mode only." That is the honest constraint. But the implementation never refuses non-text use — it just quietly drops the flag. A claw that piped claw --compact --output-format json "..." into a downstream parser would reasonably expect the JSON to be compacted (the human-readable --help sentence is ambiguous about whether "text mode only" means "ignored in JSON" or "does not apply in JSON, but will be applied if you pass text"). The current behavior is option 1; the documented intent could be read as either.

Both values then reach SystemPromptBuilder::render_env_context() at prompt.rs:176-186 and render_project_context() at prompt.rs:289-293 where they are formatted into the output via format!("Working directory: {}", cwd.display()) and format!("Today's date is {}.", current_date) with no escaping or line-break rejection.

CC2-RM-A0279-export-path-slash-command-and-claw-expor

Title: /export <path> (slash command) and claw export <path> (CLI) are two different code paths with incompatible filename semantics: the slash path silently appends .txt to any non-.txt filename (/export foo.md → foo.md.txt, /export report.json → report.json.txt), and neither path does any path-traversal validation so a relative path like ../../../tmp/pwn.md resolves to the computed absolute path outside the project root. The slash path's rendered content is full Markdown (# Conversation Export, - **Session**: ..., fenced code blocks) but the forced .txt extension misrepresents the file type. Meanwhile /export's --help documentation string is just /export [file] — no mention of the forced-.txt behavior, no mention of the path-resolution semantics — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD 7447232 from /tmp/cdY. A claw orchestrating session transcripts via the slash command and expecting .md output gets a .md.txt file it cannot find with a glob for *.md.

Title: claw status ignores .claw.json's model field entirely and always reports the compile-time DEFAULT_MODEL (claude-opus-4-6), while claw doctor reports the raw configured alias string (e.g. haiku) mislabeled as "Resolved model", and the actual turn-dispatch path resolves the alias to the canonical name (e.g. claude-haiku-4-5-20251213) via a third code path (resolve_repl_model). Four separate surfaces disagree on "what is this lane's active model?": config file (alias as written), doctor (alias mislabeled as resolved), status (hardcoded default, config ignored), and turn dispatch (canonical, alias-resolved). A claw reading status JSON to pick a tool/routing strategy based on the active model will make decisions against a model string that is neither configured nor actually used — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD 6580903 from /tmp/cdZ. .claw.json with {"model":"haiku"} produces status.model = "claude-opus-4-6" and doctor config detail Resolved model haiku simultaneously.

A user-home ~/.claw/settings.json with permissions.deny: ["Bash(rm *)"] is silently overridden by a project .claw.json with permissions.deny: ["Bash(sudo *)"] — the user's Bash(rm *) deny is GONE and never surfaced. Worse: a workspace-local .claw/settings.local.json with permissions.deny: [] silently removes every deny rule from every layer above it — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD 71e7729 from /tmp/cdAA. MCP servers are merged by-key (distinct server names from different layers coexist), but permission-rule arrays and hook arrays are NOT — they are last-writer-wins for the entire list. This makes claw-code's config merge incompatible with any multi-tier permission policy (team default → project override → local tweak) that a security-conscious team would want, and it is the exact failure mode #91 / #94 / #101 warned about on adjacent axes.

Compounded by #106: a downstream .claw/settings.local.json can silently REPLACE the entire upstream hook array — so a team-level security-audit hook can be erased and replaced by an attacker-controlled hook with zero visibility anywhere machine-readable — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD a436f9e from /tmp/cdBB. Hooks exist as a runtime capability (runtime::hooks module, HookProgressReporter trait, shell dispatcher at hooks.rs:739-754) but they are the least-observable subsystem in claw-code from the machine-orchestration perspective.

CC2-RM-A0283-cli-subcommand-typos-fall-through-to-the

Title: CLI subcommand typos fall through to the LLM prompt dispatch path and silently burn tokens — claw doctorr, claw skilsl, claw statuss, claw deply all resolve to CliAction::Prompt { prompt: "doctorr", ... } and attempt a live LLM turn. Slash commands have a "Did you mean /skill, /skills" suggestion system that works correctly; subcommands have the same infrastructure available but it is never applied. A claw or CI pipeline that typos a subcommand name gets no structural signal — just the prompt API error (usually "missing credentials" in local dev, or actual billed LLM output with provider keys configured) — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD 91c79ba from /tmp/cdCC. Every unrecognized first-positional falls through the _other => Ok(CliAction::Prompt { ... }) arm at main.rs:707, which is the documented shorthand-prompt mode — but with no levenshtein / prefix matching against the known subcommand set to offer a suggestion first. A claw running with ANTHROPIC_API_KEY set that runs claw doctorr actually sends the string "doctorr" to the configured LLM provider and pays for the tokens.

Title: Config validation emits structured diagnostics (ConfigDiagnostic with path, field, line, kind: UnknownKey | WrongType | Deprecated) but the loader flattens ALL warnings to prose via eprintln!("warning: {warning}") at config.rs:298-300. Deprecation notices for permissionMode (now permissions.defaultMode) and enabledPlugins (now plugins.enabled) appear only on stderr — never in the config check's JSON output, never as a top-level doctor warnings array, never surfaced in status JSON, never captured in any machine-readable envelope. A claw reading --output-format json doctor with 2>/dev/null gets status: "ok", summary: "runtime config loaded successfully" even when the config uses deprecated field names.

Title: ConfigLoader::discover only looks at $CWD/.claw.json, $CWD/.claw/settings.json, and $CWD/.claw/settings.local.json — it does not walk up to project_root (the detected git root) to find config. A developer with .claw.json at the repo root who runs claw from a subdirectory gets ZERO config loaded. doctor reports config: ok, no config files present; defaults are active. status.permission_mode resolves to danger-full-access (the compile-time fallback) silently.

The workspace-check correctly identifies project_root: /tmp/cdGG (via git-root walk), but config discovery never reaches that directory. A .claw.json at /tmp/cdGG/.claw.json (the project root) is INVISIBLE from any subdirectory below it. Under-discovery is the opposite failure mode from #85's over-discovery — same meta-issue: "ancestor walk policy is subsystem-by-subsystem ad-hoc, not principled."

Title: /providers slash command is documented as "List available model providers" in both --help and the shared command-spec registry, but its parser at commands/src/lib.rs:1386 maps it to SlashCommand::Doctor — so invoking /providers runs the six-check health report (auth/config/install_source/workspace/sandbox/system) and returns {kind: "doctor", checks: [...]}. A claw expecting a structured list of {providers: [{name, models, base_url, reachable}]} gets workspace-health JSON instead — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD b2366d1 from /tmp/cdHH. The command-spec registry at commands/src/lib.rs:716-718 declares name: "providers", summary: "List available model providers". --help echoes that summary in the slash-command listing and in the Resume-safe line. Actual dispatch routes to doctor. Declared contract and implementation diverge completely; this is a specification mismatch rather than a stub — /providers has documented semantics claw does not implement and silently delivers the wrong subsystem.

There is no file locking, no read-modify-write protection, no rename-race guard. The loser of the race gets ENOENT because the winner rotated, renamed, or deleted the session file between the loser's fs::read_to_string and its own fs::write.

There is also no claw session <verb> CLI subcommand: claw session delete s falls through to Prompt dispatch per #108. Net effect: claws can enumerate sessions via /session list, but CANNOT programmatically switch, fork, or delete — those are REPL-interactive only, with no --output-format json-compatible alternative and no claw session ...

Title: Session reference-resolution is asymmetric with /session list: after /clear --confirm, the new session_id baked into the meta header diverges from the filename (the file is renamed-in-place as <old-id>.jsonl). /session list reads the meta header and reports the NEW session_id (e.g. session-1776481564268-1). But claw --resume <that-id> looks up by FILENAME stem in sessions_root, not by meta-header id, and fails with "session not found". Net effect: /session list returns session ids that the --resume reference resolver cannot find. Also: /clear backup files (<id>.jsonl.before-clear-<ts>.bak) are filtered out of /session list (zero discoverability via JSON surface), and 0-byte session files at lookup path cause --resume to silently construct ephemeral-never-persisted sessions with fabricated ids not in /session list either — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD 43eac4d from /tmp/cdNN and /tmp/cdOO.

The init output is prose-only with zero mention of "danger", "permission", or "access" — a claw (or human) running claw init in a fresh project gets no signal that the generated config turns permissions off. claw init --output-format json returns {kind: "init", message: "<multi-line prose with \n literals>"} instead of structured {files_created: [...], defaultMode: "dontAsk", security_posture: "danger-full-access"}. The alias choice itself ("dontAsk") obscures the behavior: a user seeing "defaultMode": "dontAsk" in their new repo naturally reads it as "don't ask me to confirm" — NOT "grant every tool every permission unconditionally" — but the two are identical per the parser at config.rs:858. claw init is effectively a silent bootstrap to maximum-permissions mode — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD ca09b6b from /tmp/cdPP.

Only the FIRST error is reported; all subsequent validation messages are lost. Valid Claude Code config fields (apiKeyHelper, env, and other Claude-Code-native keys) trigger the same hard-fail, so a user renaming .claude.json → .claw.json for migration gets "unknown key \"apiKeyHelper\"" ... exit 1 with zero guidance on what to delete. The error goes to stderr as structured JSON ({"type":"error","error":"..."}) but a --output-format json consumer has to read BOTH stdout AND stderr to capture success-or-error — the stdout side is empty on error. There is no --ignore-unknown-config flag, no strict vs warn mode toggle, no forward-compat path — a claw's future-self putting a single new field in the config kills every older claw binary — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD ad02761 from /tmp/cdRR.

Flags placed BEFORE -p are also dropped when parser-state variables like wants_help are set and then discarded by the early return Ok(CliAction::Prompt {...}).

The user sees .claw.json behave partially like JSON5 (trailing comma works) and reasonably assumes JSON5 tolerance. Comments or unquoted keys — the two most common JSON5 conveniences a developer would reach for — silently cause the entire config to be dropped with ZERO stderr, exit 0, loaded_config_files: 0. Since the no-config default is danger-full-access per #87, a commented-out .claw.json with "defaultMode": "default" silently UPGRADES permissions from intended read-only to danger-full-access — a security-critical semantic flip from the user's expressed intent to the polar opposite — dogfooded 2026-04-18 on main HEAD 7859222 from /tmp/cdVV.

Claude Code's schema is {"hooks": {"PreToolUse": [{"matcher": "<tool-name>", "hooks": [{"type": "command", "command": "..."}]}]}} — a matcher-keyed array of objects with nested command arrays. A user migrating their Claude Code .claude.json hooks block gets parse-fail: field "hooks.PreToolUse" must be an array of strings, got an array (line 3). The error message is ALSO wrong — both schemas use arrays; the correct diagnosis is "array-of-objects where array-of-strings was expected." Separately, claw --output-format json doctor when failures present emits TWO concatenated JSON objects on stdout ({kind:"doctor",...} then {type:"error",error:"doctor found failing checks"}), breaking single-document parsing for any claw that does json.load(stdout).

The parser at main.rs:487 greedily takes args[index+1] no matter what. So claw --base-commit doctor silently uses the literal string "doctor" as the base commit, absorbs the subcommand, falls through to Prompt dispatch, emits stderr "warning: worktree HEAD (...) does not match expected base commit (doctor). Session may run against a stale codebase." (using the bogus value verbatim), AND burns billable LLM tokens on an empty prompt. Similarly claw --base-commit --model sonnet status takes --model as the base-commit value, swallowing the model flag.

Same for claw doctor --garbageflag, claw doctor garbage args here, claw status --json, claw skills --json, etc. The text-mode form claw doctor works fine without auth (it's a pure local diagnostic), so this is a pure CLI-surface failure that breaks every observability tool that pipes JSON.

With no ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN / ANTHROPIC_API_KEY set and mcpServers.everything = { command: "npx", args: ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-everything"] } configured, the CLI hangs forever (verified via timeout 30s — still in MCP startup at 30s with three repeated "Starting default (STDIO) server..." lines), instead of fail-fasting with the same missing Anthropic credentials error that fires in milliseconds when no MCP is configured. A misconfigured-but-running MCP server (one that spawns successfully but never completes its initialize handshake) wedges every claw <prompt> invocation permanently. A misconfigured MCP server with a slow-but-eventually-succeeding init (npx download, container pull, network roundtrip) burns startup latency on every Prompt invocation regardless of whether the LLM call would even succeed. This is the runtime-side companion to #102's config-time MCP diagnostic gap: #102 says doctor doesn't surface MCP reachability; #129 says the Prompt path's reachability check is implicit, blocking, retried, and runs before the cheaper auth precondition that should run first — dogfooded 2026-04-20 on main HEAD d284ef7 from /tmp/claw-mcp-test with env -i PATH=$PATH HOME=$HOME (all auth env vars unset).

CC2-RM-A0305-claw-export-output-path-filesystem-error

Title: claw export --output <path> filesystem errors surface raw OS errno strings with zero context — no path that failed, no operation that failed (open/write/mkdir), no structured error kind, no actionable hint, and the --output-format json envelope flattens everything to {"error":"<raw errno string>","type":"error"}. Five distinct filesystem failure modes all produce different raw errno strings but the same zero-context shape. The boilerplate Run claw --help for usage trailer is also misleading because these are filesystem errors, not usage errors — dogfooded 2026-04-20 on main HEAD d2a8341 from /Users/yeongyu/clawd/claw-code/rust (real session file present).

Title: Add stale-base check to doctor output. In render_doctor_report(), collect the same stale_base::BaseCommitState that run_stale_base_preflight() computes (by calling check_base_commit(&cwd, resolve_expected_base(None, &cwd).as_ref()) — note: doctor never receives --base-commit flag value, so expected base comes from .claw-base file only). Convert the BaseCommitState into a doctor DiagnosticCheck (parallel to existing auth, config, git_state, etc.). If Diverged, emit DiagnosticLevel::Warn with expected and actual commit hashes. If NotAGitRepo or NoExpectedBase, emit DiagnosticLevel::Ok. ~20 lines.

CC2-RM-A0421-extract-model-payload-is-not-inspectable

Title: extract --model-payload is not inspectable enough for deterministic dogfood: forced mode selection missing, and hybrid/no-snippet cases are opaque — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from dogfood-1776184671 against three real-repo files. node dist/cli/index.js extract <file> --model-payload succeeded and auto-selected raw, raw, and hybrid, but there is currently no CLI surface to force raw / compressed / hybrid for A/B comparison: --mode raw and --mode compressed both fail immediately with Error: Unexpected extract argument: --mode. That turns payload-shaping validation into guesswork because operators cannot ask the extractor to render the same file through each mode and compare the exact output. The opacity is worse in the observed hybrid case: the Formbricks checkbox file produced a hybrid payload with no snippets, leaving no visible explanation for why the extractor chose hybrid, what evidence it kept vs dropped, or whether the result is correct vs a silent fallback. Required fix shape: (a) add an explicit debug/inspection flag that forces extraction mode (--mode raw|compressed|hybrid or equivalent) without changing default auto-selection; (b) print/report the chosen mode and the decision reason in a machine-readable field when --model-payload is used; (c) when hybrid emits zero snippets, surface an explicit reason/count summary instead of making "no snippets" indistinguishable from silent loss; (d) add regression coverage on at least one real-world hybrid fixture so mode choice and snippet accounting stay stable. Why this matters: direct claw-code dogfood needs deterministic payload comparison to debug startup/context quality; without forced-mode inspection and snippet accounting, operators can see the outcome but not the extraction decision that produced it.

CC2-RM-A0422-extract-model-payload-emits-filepath-val

Title: extract --model-payload emits filePath values that can walk outside the current repo root for external targets — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from dogfood-1776184671 while extracting files from sibling repos under /home/bellman/Workspace/fooks-test-repos/... with cwd anchored at the claw-code repo. In all three successful payloads (raw, raw, hybrid), the reported filePath became a relative path like ../../fooks-test-repos/... that escapes the current repo root. Technically the path is still correct, but operationally it is a clawability gap: downstream consumers cannot tell whether this means "user intentionally extracted an external file", "path normalization leaked out of scope", or "the payload now references content outside the trusted working tree." That ambiguity is especially bad for model payloads because the filePath field looks like grounded provenance while actually encoding a cross-root escape. Required fix shape: (a) define a stable provenance contract for extracted targets outside cwd/repo root — for example an explicit pathScope / targetRoot field or an absolute-vs-relative policy instead of silently emitting ../.. escapes; (b) if relative paths are retained, add a machine-readable flag that the target is outside the current workspace/root; (c) document and test the normalization rule for sibling-repo extraction so downstream tooling does not mistake cross-root references for in-repo files; (d) add regression coverage for one in-repo fixture and one external-target fixture. Why this matters: model payload provenance should reduce ambiguity, not create a silent scope escape that later consumers have to reverse-engineer.

CC2-RM-A0423-successful-dogfood-runs-can-still-end-in

Title: Successful dogfood runs can still end in a misleading TUI/pane failure banner (skills/list failed in TUI, can't find pane) — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from dogfood-1776184671. The session completed real work and produced a coherent result summary, but immediately afterward the surface emitted Error: skills/list failed in TUI and can't find pane: %4766. That creates a truth-ordering bug: the user just watched a successful run, then the final visible state looks like a transport/UI failure with no indication whether the underlying task failed, the pane disappeared after completion, or an unrelated post-run TUI refresh crashed. Required fix shape: (a) separate task result state from post-run TUI/skills refresh failures so a completed run cannot be visually overwritten by a secondary pane-lookup error; (b) classify missing-pane-after-completion as a typed transport/UI degradation with phase context (post_result_refresh, skills_list_refresh, etc.) instead of a generic terminal error; (c) preserve and surface the last successful task outcome even if the TUI follow-up step fails; (d) add regression coverage for the path where a pane disappears after result rendering so the session is reported as completed_with_ui_warning rather than plain failure. Why this matters: claw-code needs the final visible truth to match the actual execution truth; otherwise successful dogfood looks flaky and operators cannot tell whether to trust the result they just got.

CC2-RM-A0424-interactive-work-can-start-with-updater

Title: Interactive work can start with updater/setup churn before the actual user task, blurring startup truth and first-action latency — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. Launching omx inside the claw-code worktree did not begin with the requested ROADMAP task; it first diverted through an update prompt (Update available: v0.12.6 → v0.13.0. Update now? [Y/n]), global install, full setup refresh, config rewrite/backups, notification/HUD setup, and a Restart to use new code notice before returning to the actual prompt. None of that was the operator’s requested work, but it consumed the critical startup window and mixed setup chatter with task-relevant execution. This creates a clawability gap: downstream observers cannot cleanly distinguish startup succeeded and work began from startup mutated the environment and maybe changed the toolchain before work began, and first-action latency gets polluted by maintenance side effects. Required fix shape: (a) make updater/setup detours a first-class startup phase with explicit classification (startup.update_gate, startup.setup_refresh) instead of letting them masquerade as normal task progress; (b) allow noninteractive or automation-oriented launches to suppress or defer update/setup churn until after the first user task/result boundary; (c) preserve a clean timestamped boundary between maintenance work and task work in lane events/status surfaces; (d) add regression coverage proving a prompt can start without forced updater/setup interposition when policy says "do work now." Why this matters: startup truth should reflect the user’s requested work, not hide it behind self-mutation and config churn that change latency, logs, and reproducibility before the first real action.

CC2-RM-A0425-direct-cli-dogfood-is-not-self-starting

Title: Direct CLI dogfood is not self-starting when build artifacts are absent (dist/cli/index.js missing) — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from dogfood-1776184671. The intended direct check was to run node dist/cli/index.js extract ..., but the first attempt hit a missing built artifact and the lane had to detour through npm ci && npm run build before any product behavior could be exercised. That means a "run the CLI directly in a fresh worktree" path is not actually one-step dogfoodable: the operator has to know the build prerequisite, spend time satisfying it, and then mentally separate build-system failures from product-surface failures. Required fix shape: (a) provide a supported direct-run entrypoint that either works from source without prebuilt dist/ artifacts or emits a product-owned guidance error that names the exact one-shot bootstrap command; (b) surface build-artifact-missing as a typed startup/dependency prerequisite state rather than a raw module/file failure; (c) document and test the fresh-worktree direct-dogfood path so extract --help / extract ... --model-payload can be exercised without archaeology; (d) if build-on-demand is the intended contract, make it explicit and deterministic instead of requiring the operator to guess npm ci && npm run build. Why this matters: direct dogfood should fail on product behavior, not on hidden local build prerequisites that blur whether the tool is broken or merely unprepared.

CC2-RM-A0426-extract-help-is-not-a-safe-local-help-su

Title: extract --help is not a safe/local help surface: after bootstrap it can still crash into a Node stack instead of rendering usage — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from dogfood-1776184671. Even after repairing the missing-build-artifact prerequisite with npm ci && npm run build, the next expected low-risk probe node dist/cli/index.js extract --help did not cleanly print command help; it dropped into a Node failure at dist/cli/index.js:52 and emitted a stack trace under Node.js v25.1.0. That means the help path itself is not trustworthy as a preflight surface: operators cannot rely on --help to discover flags or confirm command shape before doing real work, and they have to treat a basic introspection command like a potentially crashing code path. Required fix shape: (a) make extract --help and sibling help surfaces intercept locally before any heavier runtime path that can throw; (b) if a subcommand cannot render help because build/runtime prerequisites are missing, return a product-owned guidance error instead of a raw Node stack; (c) add regression coverage that extract --help succeeds in both a prepared worktree and a minimally bootstrapped one; (d) preserve the contract that help/usage discovery is the safest command family, not another execution path that can explode. Why this matters: help commands are supposed to reduce uncertainty; if they crash, dogfooders lose the cleanest way to learn the surface and every later failure gets harder to classify.

CC2-RM-A0427-build-setup-failures-are-being-misclassi

Title: Build/setup failures are being misclassified as generic missing-path shell errors in post-tool feedback — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from dogfood-1776184671. When the lane attempted node dist/cli/index.js extract --help with no built artifact, the PostToolUse hook summarized it as Bash reported `command not found`, `permission denied`, or a missing file/path, and later npm run build failed with actual TypeScript diagnostics (TS2307: Cannot find module 'typescript', plus additional compile errors). Those are distinct failure classes — missing built artifact, missing dependency, and compile/typecheck red — but the feedback surface collapses them into the same mushy shell-triage bucket. That makes recovery slower because the operator has to reread raw pane output to learn whether the right next move is npm ci, fixing package deps, fixing TS errors, or checking file paths. Required fix shape: (a) classify post-tool failures with narrower machine-readable buckets such as artifact_missing, dependency_missing, compile_error, and reserve missing_path / command_not_found for the literal cases; (b) include the strongest observed diagnostic snippet (for example TS2307 typescript missing) in the structured feedback instead of only the broad shell rubric; (c) add regression coverage proving TypeScript/compiler failures are not surfaced as generic missing-path errors; (d) thread that typed classification into lane summaries so downstream claws can recommend the right recovery without pane archaeology. Why this matters: clawability depends on the fix suggestion matching the real failure class; broad shell-error mush turns easy recoveries into manual forensic work.

CC2-RM-A0428-the-javascript-extract-dogfood-path-has

Title: The JavaScript extract dogfood path has no dedicated preflight/doctor surface for its own prerequisites — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from dogfood-1776184671. The repo already has strong Rust-side claw doctor / preflight coverage, but the direct JS CLI path I was actually dogfooding (node dist/cli/index.js extract ...) gave no equivalent early warning about its own prerequisites: missing dist/cli/index.js, missing node_modules/typescript, and the difference between "needs bootstrap" vs "real compile error" all had to be discovered by failing real commands in sequence. That means the lowest-friction way to validate the JS extract surface is still failure-driven archaeology rather than one explicit readiness check. Required fix shape: (a) add a lightweight JS-side preflight/doctor command or bootstrap check for the extract CLI path that reports artifact presence, dependency readiness, and build status before execution; (b) make that check machine-readable so lanes can say js_extract_prereq_blocked (or equivalent) instead of learning via stack traces; (c) document the direct dogfood path so operators know whether the supported sequence is doctor -> help -> extract or something else; (d) add regression coverage for a fresh worktree, a deps-missing worktree, and a ready worktree. Why this matters: preflight should collapse obvious prerequisite failures into one cheap truth surface instead of forcing dogfooders to burn turns discovering them one crash at a time.

Title: npm ci can report a clean install while leaving the JS extract build path non-buildable (false-green bootstrap) — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from dogfood-1776184671. The lane explicitly checked that node_modules/typescript was missing, then ran npm ci, which succeeded (added 3 packages, found 0 vulnerabilities), but the subsequent build path still surfaced a missing/invalid TypeScript toolchain situation instead of a clearly ready extract CLI bootstrap. From the operator side this is a false-green signal: the canonical package-manager bootstrap step says success, yet the next immediate action is still not reliably build-ready. Whether the root cause is missing declaration in package.json, lockfile drift, wrong dependency bucket, or build contract mismatch, the clawability gap is the same — npm ci success is not a trustworthy readiness signal for the JS extract path. Required fix shape: (a) define the exact dependency contract for the extract build path so npm ci alone yields a buildable state, or else emit an explicit follow-up requirement if another step is mandatory; (b) add a readiness assertion after install (for example checking required toolchain/deps like typescript) so bootstrap can fail closed instead of greenwashing; (c) add regression coverage that a clean install on a fresh worktree reaches a buildable/help-capable extract CLI state; (d) surface a typed bootstrap_false_green / deps_incomplete_after_install class when install succeeds but required build deps are still absent. Why this matters: bootstrap steps must mean what they say; a green install that leaves the next command red burns operator trust and makes every later failure harder to localize.

CC2-RM-A0430-updater-says-restart-to-use-new-code-but

Title: Updater says Restart to use new code, but the same interactive session continues immediately with ambiguous code provenance — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. After the omx updater ran and explicitly reported [omx] Updated to v0.13.0. Restart to use new code., the same visible interactive session proceeded straight into the requested task prompt instead of forcing or clearly fencing the restart boundary. That creates a stale-binary truth gap: neither the operator nor downstream claws can tell whether the subsequent behavior is coming from the newly installed version, the pre-update in-memory process, or some mixed state where setup artifacts are refreshed but the active runtime is still old. Required fix shape: (a) when an update declares restart-required, surface that as a first-class blocked/degraded state (update_applied_restart_pending) instead of silently continuing as if task execution provenance were clean; (b) either force a real restart before accepting task prompts or stamp all subsequent events with the pre-restart runtime identity until restart happens; (c) expose version-before/version-after/runtime-active-version distinctly in status surfaces; (d) add regression coverage proving that post-update task work cannot masquerade as running on the fresh version when restart is still pending. Why this matters: after self-update, code provenance is the truth boundary; if the tool says "restart required" but still keeps working, every later success or failure becomes harder to attribute to the right build.

CC2-RM-A0431-the-updater-prompt-is-automation-hostile

Title: The updater prompt is automation-hostile because it defaults to affirmative mutation (Update now? [Y/n]) during task startup — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. Before any requested work began, omx presented Update available: v0.12.6 → v0.13.0. Update now? [Y/n], meaning the default Enter path mutates the toolchain in the middle of a task-start flow. Even if the operator notices and answers intentionally, the UX contract is backwards for automation-adjacent use: the least-effort path is "change the environment now" instead of "leave the task environment stable unless explicitly opted in." Required fix shape: (a) make startup-time updater prompts opt-in by default ([y/N]) or suppress them entirely in automation/worktree/task-launch contexts; (b) expose a policy switch so maintainers can choose never, ask, or always update behavior explicitly instead of hidden prompt defaults; (c) classify affirmative-default update prompts as startup mutation events in telemetry so they are visible in lane history; (d) add regression coverage proving a bare Enter during task startup does not silently opt into an update unless policy explicitly allows it. Why this matters: default-yes mutation is the wrong trust posture for reproducible dogfood and automation; task startup should preserve environment stability unless the operator deliberately chooses otherwise.

Title: Promotional output is mixed into the task-start surface (Support the project: gh repo star ...), diluting operational signal — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. During the same startup flow that was supposed to move from update/setup into actual task work, omx printed a promotional line (Support the project: gh repo star Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-codex) directly in the operational transcript. This is not a correctness bug by itself, but it is a clawability gap: startup/task surfaces are where operators and downstream claws are trying to detect readiness, blockers, version provenance, and prompt receipt. Injecting marketing copy into that channel increases noise exactly where the signal budget is most precious. Required fix shape: (a) separate promotional/community messaging from operational startup/task transcripts, or gate it behind a quiet/noninteractive mode default for task launches; (b) mark any remaining non-operational lines with explicit metadata so downstream parsers can ignore them; (c) add a policy switch for quiet task-start surfaces vs interactive human-friendly onboarding; (d) add regression coverage proving task-start transcripts contain only operationally relevant lines in automation/worktree contexts. Why this matters: if the same channel carries both readiness truth and promo copy, claws have to waste effort distinguishing signal from fluff right when they should be classifying blockers and executing work.

Title: Startup can silently enter a more destructive maintenance posture (Force mode) before task work begins — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The updater/setup transcript included Force mode: enabled additional destructive maintenance (for example stale deprecated skill cleanup). in the middle of task startup. Even if the maintenance is legitimate, this is a clawability gap because the runtime is declaring that it has switched into a more destructive cleanup posture before the operator’s requested task has started, yet that posture change is not fenced as a separate trust boundary with explicit operator intent, policy context, or post-change state. Required fix shape: (a) treat force/destructive maintenance mode as a first-class startup state transition with explicit provenance and reason, not an inline informational line; (b) require explicit policy/consent in task-launch contexts before enabling destructive maintenance, especially when the user goal was unrelated to maintenance; (c) expose what was actually cleaned/removed under force mode in structured post-run state so the operator can audit side effects; (d) add regression coverage proving ordinary task startup cannot silently widen maintenance/destructive scope without a corresponding policy signal. Why this matters: startup should not quietly broaden its mutation/destructive radius under the same transcript used for task execution; when trust posture changes, that change needs to be explicit, auditable, and easy to distinguish from normal startup noise.

Title: Task-start transcript leaks internal implementation/config choreography (HUD config, [tui] ownership, section-left-untouched notes) instead of surfacing only operator-relevant state — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The startup/update flow printed lines like HUD config created (preset: focused). and Codex CLI >= 0.107.0 manages [tui]; OMX left that section untouched. Those may be useful during installer development, but on a task-start surface they are low-level implementation chatter: they expose config ownership details and internal orchestration mechanics that are not the operator’s actual question (can work start yet? what changed? what is blocked?). Required fix shape: (a) separate installer/debug implementation detail logs from the operator-facing startup/task transcript; (b) summarize them into a higher-level state only when they materially affect readiness (for example ui_config_deferred_to_host_cli), otherwise suppress them in normal task launches; (c) provide a verbose/debug mode where maintainers can still inspect the raw choreography intentionally; (d) add regression coverage proving default task-start transcripts carry readiness/provenance/blocker facts, not installer internals. Why this matters: when internal config chatter and operational truth share the same transcript, claws have to reverse-engineer which lines matter; startup should communicate state, not make maintainers parse implementation archaeology every run.

CC2-RM-A0435-setup-scope-selection-defaults-to-user-g

Title: Setup-scope selection defaults to user/global mutation during task startup, creating project-vs-global provenance ambiguity — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The updater/setup flow prompted Select setup scope: and defaulted to 1) user (default), then continued with Using setup scope: user and User scope leaves project AGENTS.md unchanged. In a task-launch context inside a specific project worktree, this is a clawability gap: the default mutation target is the operator’s global ~/.codex environment rather than the current project, so the startup path can change cross-project state before the task even begins. That makes it ambiguous whether later behavior comes from project-local config, user-global config, or some mixed overlay. Required fix shape: (a) make scope choice explicit and policy-driven in task/worktree launches instead of defaulting silently to user/global scope; (b) expose the active config/provenance stack clearly after setup (project, user, or layered) so later behavior can be attributed correctly; (c) allow automation/worktree mode to prefer or require project-local scope by default; (d) add regression coverage proving a bare Enter at setup-scope prompt does not unexpectedly widen mutation scope beyond the current project unless policy explicitly allows it. **Why this matters:** when startup mutates global state from inside a project task flow, reproducibility and blame assignment get muddy fast; scope is part of runtime truth and needs to be explicit, not an installer default hidden in startup chatter.

Title: Installer refresh-count dumps (updated=, unchanged=, skipped=...) are mixed into task-start transcript even when the operator only needs readiness truth — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The startup flow printed a full Setup refresh summary: block with counters for prompts, skills, native agents, AGENTS.md, and config. Those counters may be useful for installer debugging, but in a task-launch transcript they are mostly bookkeeping noise: they consume operator attention without answering the task-critical questions (did startup finish? what mutated? is restart pending? can work begin?). Required fix shape: (a) move raw refresh-count summaries behind verbose/debug output or a separate installer report surface; (b) collapse default task-start output to a higher-level mutation summary only when something materially changed; (c) mark detailed installer accounting as non-operational metadata when it must remain available; (d) add regression coverage proving default task-start transcripts do not include raw installer counter dumps in automation/worktree contexts.

After the updater/setup churn, the transcript printed a Next steps: block (Start Codex CLI in your project directory, Browse skills with /skills, The AGENTS.md orchestration brain is loaded automatically, etc.) immediately before the actual task prompt. In a live project-task session this is a clawability gap: the tool already knows it is inside a project directory and about to execute a concrete prompt, yet it still emits a generic first-run onboarding checklist that competes with the real work context.

Title: Floating UX tips (Tip: New Build faster with Codex.) intrude into the task-start truth surface even when the session is about to execute real work — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. Right after the startup banner and before the actual task prompt took over, the surface displayed Tip: New Build faster with Codex. This kind of ambient tip may be harmless in a purely interactive onboarding context, but in a task-launch transcript it is another piece of non-operational noise competing with the real signals: readiness, prompt receipt, blocked state, restart pending, and execution provenance. Required fix shape: (a) suppress floating tips by default in task/worktree/automation launch contexts; (b) if tips remain in interactive mode, label them as ignorable non-operational UI hints outside the main transcript channel; (c) provide an explicit tips=on/off/auto policy so operators can keep startup surfaces quiet when they need clean telemetry; (d) add regression coverage proving task-start transcripts do not include generic tips once the system has enough context to know it is in execution mode. Why this matters: claws need startup transcripts to be high-signal; ambient tips are cheap for humans to ignore but expensive for automation and postmortem parsing because they widen the same channel that carries actual state transitions.

CC2-RM-A0439-the-full-startup-banner-still-occupies-p

Title: The full startup banner still occupies prime task-start transcript space even in an execution-bound session — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. Before any real work state was surfaced, the session rendered the large OpenAI Codex (v0.120.0) banner block with model and directory chrome. A banner is fine for an interactive REPL landing page, but in a task-launch/worktree context it is another large piece of non-operational framing that pushes actual readiness/provenance/blocker signals further down the transcript. This is distinct from the old piped-stdin bug (#48): here the issue is not wrong mode selection, but that once execution mode is already known, the banner still claims the most visible part of the startup surface. Required fix shape: (a) suppress or collapse the full banner in task/worktree/automation launches once the system knows it is entering execution immediately; (b) if some context is still useful, reduce it to one compact machine-readable/header line rather than a decorative block; (c) keep the full banner for explicit interactive landing contexts only; (d) add regression coverage proving execution-bound launches surface readiness/provenance first, not the decorative REPL chrome. Why this matters: startup transcript real estate is scarce; when the banner consumes the top of the screen, claws and operators pay a tax just to get to the lines that actually determine whether work can proceed.

Title: Model/directory context is only exposed as decorative banner chrome instead of a stable structured startup state surface — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The session showed useful facts like model: gpt-5.4 high and directory: /mnt/offloading/Workspace/claw-code, but only inside the decorative startup banner block. That means the context is visually present for a human yet not surfaced as a clearly structured, low-noise state line/event that claws can reliably consume once banners are suppressed or compacted. Required fix shape: (a) expose active model, cwd/project root, and similar startup context as a compact structured state surface independent of the decorative banner; (b) keep the data available even when banners are hidden in task/worktree/automation mode; (c) ensure downstream status/lane events can consume the same fields without scraping presentation text; (d) add regression coverage proving model/cwd context survives banner suppression and remains visible in a machine-usable form. Why this matters: some startup context is genuinely important, but if it only exists as banner chrome then operators must choose between noisy presentation and losing state; the truth should live in structured state, not decorative formatting.

Title: Setup progress numbering uses ad-hoc fractional steps ([5.5/8]), which blurs startup phase truth instead of clarifying it — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The updater/setup transcript labeled one phase as [5.5/8] Verifying Team CLI API interop..., which reads like an implementation-side patch to the step list rather than a stable user-facing phase model. It is a small thing, but it is a real clawability gap: when startup phase numbering itself looks improvised, operators and downstream claws cannot tell whether phases are canonical, inserted dynamically, optional, or comparable across runs. Required fix shape: (a) expose startup/setup phases as stable named states instead of ad-hoc fractional numbering; (b) if dynamic substeps are needed, nest them structurally under a parent phase instead of mutating the visible top-level ordinal; (c) make machine-readable startup telemetry use canonical phase ids rather than presentation-only counters; (d) add regression coverage proving startup phase sequencing remains stable even when intermediate validation steps are added. Why this matters: phase numbering should reduce ambiguity, not advertise that the startup model is being patched live; claws need stable phase identity for comparison, dedupe, and blocker attribution across runs.

CC2-RM-A0442-task-start-transcript-still-tells-the-op

Title: Task-start transcript still tells the operator to Run "omx doctor" to verify installation even after the session has already crossed into active execution flow — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The updater/setup path printed Setup complete! Run "omx doctor" to verify installation. immediately before continuing into the live project task prompt. In a first-run install flow that guidance is fine; in an already-active task/worktree launch it is a diversionary fork that reintroduces setup validation as if the operator were still onboarding instead of already trying to execute concrete work. Required fix shape: (a) suppress doctor/verification nudges once the runtime knows it is in an execution-bound task launch rather than a fresh install session; (b) if verification remains relevant, encode it as a structured optional recommendation separate from the main transcript, not a blocking-looking imperative sentence; (c) keep doctor guidance available on explicit help/status/install surfaces; (d) add regression coverage proving task-launch transcripts do not instruct users to re-verify installation mid-launch unless a real installation-health blocker is present. Why this matters: task-start truth should converge on the requested work; reintroducing run doctor guidance at the last moment makes the runtime look uncertain about whether startup is complete and distracts both humans and claws from execution.

Title: Capability-detection chatter (omx team api command detected, CLI-first interop ready) leaks into task-start transcript instead of being summarized as stable readiness state — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. During setup the transcript printed lines like omx team api command detected (CLI-first interop ready). That may be useful during installer debugging, but in a task-launch transcript it is low-level capability-probing chatter: it tells the operator how the installer discovered a capability instead of simply surfacing the resulting readiness fact, if that fact even matters to the current task. Required fix shape: (a) hide raw capability-detection chatter from the default task-start transcript; (b) if the result matters, summarize it as a stable named readiness capability or degraded state rather than a probe log; (c) keep raw probe details in verbose/debug output only; (d) add regression coverage proving startup surfaces do not emit ephemeral detection strings in execution-bound launches. Why this matters: claws need canonical state, not probe narration; when startup transcripts describe how readiness was detected rather than the readiness outcome itself, downstream consumers have to reverse-engineer transient strings instead of reading stable state.

Title: Backup side effects are reported only as installer bookkeeping (backed_up=...) inside startup chatter instead of as an explicit auditable mutation surface — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The setup refresh summary included counts like config: updated=1, unchanged=1, backed_up=1, which means startup created backup artifacts or backup state as part of the run. That is a real side effect, but it is only exposed as a counter inside noisy installer bookkeeping. In a task-launch context this is a clawability gap: backups are mutation/audit facts, not just installer trivia, and they should be easy to attribute and inspect without scraping summary counts. Required fix shape: (a) surface backup creation as an explicit structured mutation event (what was backed up, where, why) rather than only a counter; (b) keep backup/audit details in a dedicated mutation report separate from the main task-start transcript; (c) allow operators to inspect or suppress routine backup chatter without losing auditability; (d) add regression coverage proving backup side effects remain attributable even when installer counter dumps are hidden. Why this matters: when startup mutates disk state, the audit trail should be crisp and intentional; hiding backups inside generic updated/unchanged/backed_up counters makes real side effects look like disposable noise.

Title: Installer mutation summaries are aggregate-only (updated=, skipped=, removed= counts) and hide which concrete artifacts changed — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The Setup refresh summary reported counters for prompts, skills, native agents, AGENTS.md, and config, but not the identities of the files/items that were actually updated, skipped, backed up, or removed. That creates an item-level opacity gap: even when the operator accepts that startup did maintenance, they still cannot tell what concretely changed without diffing the filesystem or rerunning in a more verbose mode. Required fix shape: (a) expose a structured per-item mutation report (or stable pointer to one) alongside the aggregate counts; (b) let the default task-start transcript stay quiet while still preserving an auditable item list off the main path; (c) distinguish no-op categories from real mutated identities so downstream claws can tell whether a count reflects actual risk; (d) add regression coverage proving installer summaries remain attributable at the item level even when only compact high-level output is shown by default. Why this matters: counts alone are not enough for trust — when startup says it changed "some" prompts/skills/config, claws need a stable way to know exactly which artifacts moved without scraping or manual archaeology.

CC2-RM-A0446-installer-summary-status-labels-unchange

Title: Installer summary status labels (unchanged, skipped, removed, updated) are not semantically crisp enough for downstream interpretation — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The startup transcript emitted category counters like updated=0, unchanged=20, skipped=13, removed=0, but the semantics of those buckets are not self-evident in a machine-usable way: does skipped mean policy-blocked, out-of-scope, user-owned, version-pinned, or transient failure? Does unchanged mean verified identical, or merely not touched? That ambiguity makes the counts hard to trust even before item-level detail is considered. Required fix shape: (a) define stable semantics for each installer outcome bucket and expose them in machine-readable form; (b) avoid overloading skipped/unchanged for multiple reasons — use typed subreasons when needed; (c) ensure compact summaries can still distinguish harmless no-op from policy suppression or deferred action; (d) add regression coverage proving outcome labels remain stable and unambiguous across installer changes. Why this matters: if the status words themselves are fuzzy, aggregate counts become misleading telemetry — claws cannot tell whether startup was clean, partially suppressed, or silently deferred without reverse-engineering installer internals.

CC2-RM-A0447-task-startup-degrades-into-an-interactiv

Title: Task startup degrades into an interactive installer questionnaire (update? scope?) instead of a deterministic launch contract — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. Before any project work began, the launch path required answering multiple setup questions (Update now? [Y/n], Select setup scope: ... Scope [1-2]) and only then continued into updater/setup churn and the eventual task prompt. This is a distinct clawability gap from the individual prompt defaults: even if each default were safer, the overall startup contract is still questionnaire-driven rather than deterministic. A task/worktree launch should be able to evaluate policy and either proceed or surface a typed blocked state, not stop for a mini installer interview. Required fix shape: (a) replace startup questionnaires with explicit policy-driven decisions and typed states (update_required, scope_resolution_required, etc.); (b) reserve interactive questioning for explicit install/setup commands, not ordinary task-launch paths; (c) provide a noninteractive/automation-safe mode where launch decisions are resolved from config/policy alone; (d) add regression coverage proving execution-bound launches either start deterministically or fail with structured blockers instead of pausing for ad-hoc Q&A. Why this matters: questionnaires destroy launch determinism; claws cannot reliably classify or replay startup when the runtime keeps asking humans to steer installer choices in the middle of task execution.

Title: Startup success confirmations collapse into repeated generic Done. lines with weak object identity — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. Across the setup flow, multiple steps ended with bare confirmations like Done. after labels such as Creating directories, Configuring notification hook, and similar installer actions. That is a small but real event/log opacity gap: once the transcript gets longer, a claw or human skimming later cannot tell what exact artifact or side effect each Done. line is attesting to without walking back through the surrounding prose. Required fix shape: (a) emit success confirmations with stable object identity (directories_created, notification_hook_configured, etc.) instead of bare Done.; (b) keep human-friendly summaries if desired, but pair them with structured outcome ids; (c) make compact task-start transcripts collapse repetitive successful maintenance lines unless they materially affect readiness; (d) add regression coverage proving startup confirmations remain attributable even after transcript compaction or banner suppression. Why this matters: opaque success acknowledgments are the mirror image of opaque failures — if the runtime cannot say what specifically succeeded, later audits and parsers have to reconstruct state from surrounding noise instead of reading a stable event surface.

Title: Setup complete! is emitted as a false-completion signal even while restart-required / execution-readiness ambiguity still exists — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The startup flow printed Setup complete! even though the same transcript also said Updated to v0.13.0. Restart to use new code. and then continued into a noisy task-launch path with unclear runtime provenance. That makes Setup complete! a misleading terminal state label: it reads like the environment is fully ready and settled when in reality restart is still pending and execution truth is still muddy. Required fix shape: (a) reserve complete/ready language for genuinely execution-ready states only; (b) when restart or policy resolution is still pending, emit a degraded or transitional state instead (setup_applied_restart_pending, setup_applied_not_ready, etc.); (c) make human-facing copy and machine-facing state agree on whether the launch is actually ready for work; (d) add regression coverage proving no completion banner is shown while mandatory follow-up state (restart, consent, scope resolution) remains unresolved. Why this matters: false green completion signals poison the whole startup surface — once the runtime says complete too early, every later blocker or ambiguity looks like a contradiction instead of a known pending state.

Title: Post-setup guidance can directly contradict observed reality (Start Codex CLI in your project directory) even though the session is already inside Codex in that directory — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. After startup had already entered the Codex UI and clearly showed directory: /mnt/offloading/Workspace/claw-code, the Next steps: block still instructed Start Codex CLI in your project directory. This is sharper than generic onboarding noise: it is self-contradicting guidance emitted in the same transcript that already proves the instruction has been satisfied. Required fix shape: (a) suppress any next-step/help guidance that is contradicted by current runtime state; (b) make onboarding copy state-aware so already-satisfied steps are removed or marked complete instead of repeated as advice; (c) ensure task-launch transcripts prefer observed facts over canned checklists; (d) add regression coverage proving startup help text does not instruct the user to do something the runtime already knows is true. Why this matters: contradictory guidance corrodes trust faster than generic noise — once the transcript tells the user to do something they are visibly already doing, every other startup instruction becomes suspect too.

Title: Task-start transcript uses internal/anthropomorphic claims (The AGENTS.md orchestration brain is loaded automatically) instead of verifiable readiness facts — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The Next steps: block included The AGENTS.md orchestration brain is loaded automatically, which is not a crisp operational fact but an internal/marketing-ish claim about the system’s conceptual model. In a task-launch transcript this is a clawability gap: the line sounds important, but it does not say what was actually loaded, how to verify it, or whether it affects current readiness. Required fix shape: (a) replace anthropomorphic/internal claims in startup/task surfaces with verifiable state facts (AGENTS.md loaded: yes/no, policy file path, load source, etc.) when such state matters; (b) keep conceptual/product-language copy out of operational transcripts or confine it to docs/onboarding surfaces; (c) make every startup claim testable against observable runtime state; (d) add regression coverage proving task-launch transcripts surface factual state instead of unverifiable product prose. Why this matters: claws can only reason over checkable truth; when startup surfaces speak in metaphor or internal branding, downstream consumers cannot distinguish “important state” from “colorful copy,” and auditability collapses.

Title: Startup lacks a canonical final verdict line/state (READY, BLOCKED, RESTART_REQUIRED, etc.), forcing claws to infer readiness from noisy transcript fragments — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. After update prompts, scope questions, setup steps, summaries, tips, and onboarding chatter, the transcript never emitted one authoritative machine-usable outcome that settled the startup state. Instead, the operator had to infer from scattered lines like Setup complete!, Restart to use new code., and subsequent prompt availability. This is a core event/log opacity gap: even if every individual line were cleaner, claws still need one canonical startup verdict to know whether the session is truly ready, degraded, blocked, or restart-pending. Required fix shape: (a) emit a single explicit startup outcome state at the end of launch (ready, blocked, restart_required, setup_degraded, etc.); (b) make that verdict authoritative over incidental transcript prose and reusable in lane/status events; (c) attach the minimal structured reasons that led to the verdict so downstream consumers do not have to scrape prior chatter; (d) add regression coverage proving every execution-bound launch terminates its startup phase with exactly one canonical verdict. Why this matters: without a final authoritative verdict, startup remains chat archaeology — claws cannot reliably decide whether to proceed, wait, or remediate because readiness lives only in the reader’s interpretation of noisy text.

The same surface flowed from updater prompts, setup-scope questions, installer progress, summaries, tips, and onboarding text directly into the actual task prompt with no clean phase break that said “startup is over; execution has begun.” This is distinct from #232’s missing final verdict: even if a verdict existed, claws still need a visible handoff boundary so later lines can be interpreted as task execution rather than residual setup chatter.

Title: Startup phases expose almost no elapsed-time signal, so operators cannot tell which pre-task step actually consumed launch latency — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The launch path spent real time in update prompting, setup scope selection, setup refresh, interop checks, config work, and onboarding chatter before real work began, but the transcript gave almost no per-phase timing or duration summary. That makes startup friction hard to localize: claws can see that startup felt long, but not whether the time went to update/install, config rewrite, capability probing, restart-pending drift, or UI chatter.

Title: Startup decisions have no policy-source attribution, so prompts and mutations appear arbitrary (why am I being asked to update/scope-switch/force-maintain?) — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The launch path asked about updates, defaulted to user scope, entered force mode, and emitted various setup actions, but the transcript never said which config, policy, default rule, or caller context caused those decisions. The operator can see what happened, but not why this branch was chosen. That creates a policy-opacity gap on top of the noise: even if the prompts were fewer, claws still could not audit whether a choice came from explicit config, a default fallback, current repo context, or installer hardcode.

Title: Setup refresh has no drift/trigger explanation, so repeated pre-task maintenance looks unconditional even when it may be idempotent or unnecessary — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The launch path ran a broad setup refresh and printed counts (updated, unchanged, skipped, backed_up), but never explained why this refresh was needed on this run: stale install detected, version mismatch, missing files, policy-enforced reapply, or just unconditional startup behavior. That leaves a critical ambiguity: the operator can see maintenance happened, but cannot tell whether it was justified by detected drift or simply rerun every time. Required fix shape: (a) emit a compact trigger reason for startup maintenance (version_drift, missing_artifacts, policy_reapply, first_run, forced_refresh, etc.); (b) include whether the refresh was necessary, opportunistic, or unconditional; (c) surface the trigger reason in the final startup verdict and structured mutation report; (d) add regression coverage proving repeated launches can distinguish "no drift, no refresh needed" from "refresh intentionally rerun because X." Why this matters: without drift/trigger attribution, startup maintenance feels arbitrary and expensive — claws cannot decide whether to cache, suppress, precompute, or eliminate the work because they do not know why it fired.

The setup flow reported lots of unchanged counts, but the transcript never made clear whether that meant a true cheap no-op fast path, a full scan/rewrite pass that happened to find no diffs, or a partially skipped installer run. This is distinct from #236’s missing trigger reason: even if a refresh was justified, the operator still cannot tell whether repeated launches are paying the full maintenance cost or benefiting from a stable idempotent shortcut.

The launch flow showed questionnaire-style prompts such as Update now? [Y/n] and Scope [1-2] (default: 1):, but the resulting transcript only reflected the chosen path (Using setup scope: user, updater executed) without clearly recording whether those outcomes came from explicit operator input, default acceptance, automation, or some other implicit branch. That is a real audit gap: even if startup decisions become policy-driven later, the current surface cannot reconstruct whether a risky branch was intentionally chosen or simply happened because Enter accepted the default. Required fix shape: (a) record answer provenance for startup decisions (explicit_input, default_accepted, policy_auto, preconfigured) in machine-readable form; (b) surface compact provenance tags for consequential branches like update/scope/force mode; (c) thread answer provenance into the final startup verdict and audit trail; (d) add regression coverage proving startup decisions remain attributable after transcript compaction and banner suppression. Why this matters: when a launch mutates the environment, it is not enough to know what branch happened — claws need to know whether a human actually chose it or whether the system silently fell through to a default.

CC2-RM-A0459-startup-transcript-has-no-severity-impor

Title: Startup transcript has no severity/importance layering, so blockers, mutations, info, and tips all compete at the same visual priority — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. In the same startup surface, lines about restart-required state, updater actions, setup mutations, promo copy, onboarding guidance, tips, and installer bookkeeping all appeared as ordinary transcript entries with no stable severity cues. That means the operator has to manually decide which lines are blockers, which are side-effect audit facts, and which are safely ignorable. Required fix shape: (a) assign stable severity/importance classes to startup events (blocker, mutation, readiness, info, hint, etc.); (b) make the final startup verdict and compact transcript prioritize blocker/readiness signals above all other classes; (c) let downstream consumers filter or collapse lower-severity startup chatter without losing auditability; (d) add regression coverage proving startup surfaces preserve severity ordering even when verbose output is enabled. Why this matters: even perfect wording is not enough if every line has equal visual weight — claws need severity structure so the startup surface can be parsed by priority instead of by brute-force reading order.

Title: Startup mixes persistent mutations and ephemeral observations in the same plain-text channel, so operators cannot quickly tell what changed on disk/config versus what was merely detected — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The transcript interleaved observations like capability detection, version notices, and tips with persistent side effects like config refreshes, backups, hook setup, and possible global-scope mutation, but rendered them all as ordinary prose lines. That makes audit and recovery harder: a claw reading back later cannot immediately separate "this was observed" from "this changed machine state." Required fix shape: (a) classify startup events by persistence class (observation, decision, mutation, audit_artifact) in addition to severity; (b) provide a compact mutation-only view or structured ledger for the startup run; (c) keep ephemeral observations available without letting them obscure which events actually changed durable state; (d) add regression coverage proving startup surfaces preserve the distinction between detected facts and persisted side effects. Why this matters: when startup changes the machine, claws need a fast path to the durable side effects. Without a persistence distinction, every audit becomes transcript archaeology instead of a clean state-change review. Source: live dogfood session clawcode-human on 2026-04-19.

CC2-RM-A0461-startup-emits-many-lines-but-no-stable-s

Title: Startup emits many lines but no stable startup-attempt/run id, so downstream claws cannot reliably group which prompts, mutations, and verdict belong to the same launch — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The startup flow included update prompting, scope selection, setup steps, summaries, restart-required messaging, onboarding spillover, and then task execution, but none of those lines carried a shared startup correlation id. That makes analysis brittle once multiple launches or retries exist nearby: parsers have to infer grouping by proximity instead of knowing "these 23 lines belong to startup attempt X." Required fix shape: (a) assign a stable startup run id/correlation id at launch begin; (b) attach it to startup prompts, mutations, summaries, verdicts, and the startup→execution handoff; (c) preserve the id in compact transcript mode and structured lane/status events; (d) add regression coverage proving concurrent/retried launches remain separable without heuristic log scraping. Why this matters: without correlation identity, even improved startup events stay hard to stitch together across retries, compaction, and neighboring sessions. A canonical run id turns noisy startup text into a coherent attributable execution record. Source: live dogfood session clawcode-human on 2026-04-19.

Title: Startup events have no stable sequence index inside a run, so downstream claws cannot reconstruct exact event order without trusting transcript layout — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. Even within one startup attempt, the flow mixed prompts, setup phases, summaries, restart-required signals, onboarding spillover, and the execution handoff without any monotonic event numbering or ordered machine-readable sequence marker. This is adjacent to #241 but distinct: a run id can tell you which launch a line belongs to, but not the exact canonical order of steps once output is compacted, reflowed, partially hidden, or merged into other status surfaces. Required fix shape: (a) assign a monotonic startup event sequence index within each startup run; (b) carry that sequence through structured startup events, summaries, and the final verdict/handoff; (c) preserve sequence identity when rendering compact human transcripts so downstream consumers can recover true order without scraping visual layout; (d) add regression coverage proving startup ordering remains reconstructable across retries, compaction, and alternate renderers. Why this matters: grouping without ordering is only half the audit trail. Claws need canonical event order to tell whether a blocker preceded a mutation, whether a verdict came before or after restart-required, and whether setup really finished before execution began.

Title: Startup prompts ask for consent without previewing the concrete mutation plan, so yes/no decisions are under-informed — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The launch path asked questions like Update now? [Y/n] and then proceeded into global install, setup refresh, config rewrites/backups, notification/HUD changes, possible force-mode maintenance, and restart-required state — but the prompt itself did not preview that concrete mutation set before asking for consent. This is a distinct clawability gap from policy/source attribution: even if the decision source were known, the operator still was not shown a compact “what will change if you say yes” plan before choosing. Required fix shape: (a) provide a concise mutation preview before consequential startup prompts (will update package, may rewrite config, may create backups, restart required, scope target, etc.); (b) make the preview machine-readable so automation and logs can capture the intended mutation set before execution; (c) allow policy-driven noninteractive mode to log the same preview as a preflight plan instead of asking interactively; (d) add regression coverage proving startup consent points expose their concrete planned side effects before mutation begins. Why this matters: consent without a change preview is barely better than blind defaulting — claws need to know not just that a branch exists, but what durable consequences that branch will have before they approve or auto-resolve it.

Title: Startup has no dry-run / inspect-only path for mutation-heavy setup decisions, so the only way to learn what would happen is to start mutating — dogfooded 2026-04-19 from clawcode-human. The launch path combined update prompting, scope selection, setup refresh, config rewrite/backups, force-mode maintenance, and restart-required drift, but there was no obvious dry-run or inspect-only startup contract that would let an operator ask “what would this launch do?” without already entering the mutation flow. This is adjacent to #243’s missing mutation preview, but broader: even a good inline preview still leaves no reusable no-side-effect mode for automation, audits, or preflight debugging. Required fix shape: (a) add a startup dry-run / inspect-only mode that evaluates policy, detects drift, computes the mutation plan, and emits the same canonical startup verdict without applying changes; (b) make that dry-run output machine-readable and structurally identical enough to compare with a real run; (c) ensure task/worktree automation can call the inspect path before deciding whether to allow mutation; (d) add regression coverage proving startup planning can be observed without side effects and that real execution matches the planned mutation set. Why this matters: when startup can rewrite global/user/project state, “show me the plan without touching anything” is a core clawability contract, not a luxury. Without it, every audit begins after the machine has already been changed. Source: live dogfood session clawcode-human on 2026-04-19.

CC2-RM-A0465-oc-work-send-can-fail-as-a-silent-contro

Title: oc-work send can fail as a silent control-plane misfire (usage dump / missing required context) instead of a typed delivery error with correction guidance — dogfooded 2026-04-20 from the live #claw-code coordination lane while Jobdori tried to steer sisyphus on ROADMAP #127. The first oc-work send attempt printed underlying script usage (Usage: send-prompt.sh ...) because --session was missing, but from the outer operator view that looked like a vague tool hiccup rather than a precise control-plane delivery failure. The command only succeeded after manually discovering the active session id and reissuing with --session ses_25725e95fffe882FpmeZNL1HdA. Required fix shape: (a) promote missing required control-plane context (like target session id) into a typed delivery_blocked_missing_session / invalid_send_target error instead of raw usage echo from an inner script; (b) when a send command can infer or list likely active session ids, surface that guidance directly in the error; (c) ensure failed sends emit an explicit not delivered outcome so operators do not confuse usage text with successful steering; (d) add regression coverage proving oc-work send failures preserve operator intent, classify the missing arg correctly, and never masquerade as opaque shell noise. Why this matters: control-plane misfires are worse than ordinary tool failures because they create false confidence that steering happened when it did not. For multi-agent clawhip/agentika loops, send-path auditability has to be crisp. Source: live Jobdori / agentika steering thread in #claw-code on 2026-04-20.

CC2-RM-A0466-dogfood-reminder-cron-can-self-fail-by-t

Title: Dogfood reminder cron can self-fail by timing out during active cycles, so the nudge loop itself is not trustworthy as an observability surface — dogfooded 2026-04-21 in #clawcode-building-in-public after multiple consecutive alerts: Cron job "clawcode-dogfood-cycle-reminder" failed: cron: job execution timed out at 14:14, 14:24, 14:34, 14:44, 15:13, and 15:23 KST while the same dogfood cycle was actively producing reports and fixes. This is not just scheduler noise — it is a clawability gap in the reminder/control loop itself. A downstream claw seeing both repeated dogfood nudges and repeated cron timeouts cannot tell whether the reminder actually delivered, partially delivered, duplicated, or died after side effects. Required fix shape: (a) classify reminder execution outcome explicitly (delivered, timed_out_after_send, timed_out_before_send, suppressed_as_duplicate, skipped_due_to_active_cycle) instead of a single generic timeout; (b) attach the target message/report cycle id and whether a Discord post was already emitted before timeout; (c) add a fast-path/no-op path when the cycle state is unchanged or an active report is already in flight so the reminder job can exit cleanly instead of hanging; (d) add regression coverage proving repeated unchanged-state cycles do not stack timeouts or duplicate nudges. Why this matters: if the reminder loop itself is ambiguous, claws waste time responding to scheduler artifacts instead of real product state, and the dogfood surface stops being a reliable source of truth.

CC2-RM-A0467-mcp-memory-permission-prompts-can-recur

Title: MCP memory permission prompts can recur after a transport failure, leaving an active worker blocked in a second consent loop instead of a typed degraded state — dogfooded 2026-04-27 from live session clawcode-human while responding to the claw-code dogfood nudge. The session first asked permission for omx_memory.project_memory_read; after approval, the call failed with Transport closed, then the runtime immediately attempted omx_memory.notepad_read and blocked again on a fresh allow prompt. From the outside this looks like an automation-hostile MCP lifecycle gap: the worker is neither cleanly ready nor cleanly failed, and downstream claws must scrape the pane to learn that memory MCP is both consent-gated and transport-degraded. Required fix shape: (a) after an MCP transport closes, emit a typed degraded state such as mcp_transport_closed with server/tool identity; (b) suppress or batch follow-up permission prompts for the same failed MCP server until transport recovery is proven; (c) expose whether the task can continue without that MCP tool or is blocked on memory; (d) add regression coverage for permission granted -> transport closed -> follow-up tool attempt so it becomes one structured blocker instead of repeated interactive consent loops. Why this matters: MCP memory should either be available, explicitly degraded, or explicitly blocked; repeated permission prompts after a closed transport make prompt delivery and readiness ambiguous.

Title: Non-interactive prompt mode can exceed caller timeouts with no in-band startup/API phase event or partial status artifact — dogfooded 2026-04-29 from live tmux session claw-code-issue-247-human-fresh-run after the owner explicitly asked gaebal-gajae to make a fresh session and use claw-code directly. The actual ./rust/target/debug/claw binary was launched via clawhip tmux new on current main. claw doctor --output-format json and claw status --output-format json both succeeded and reported auth/config/workspace ok, but minimal non-interactive prompt calls (timeout 120 ./rust/target/debug/claw --output-format json --dangerously-skip-permissions "echo hello" and timeout 120 ./rust/target/debug/claw --output-format json prompt "Reply with just the word hello") both timed out from the outer harness after roughly 150s with only Command exceeded timeout visible. There was no machine-readable api_request_started, waiting_for_first_token, provider/model/base-url identity, retry count, or partial status file/event that would let clawhip distinguish slow provider, network stall, auth/OAuth drift, stream parser hang, or prompt-mode bug. Required fix shape: (a) emit structured non-interactive lifecycle events for startup_ok, api_request_started, first_byte/first_token, retry/backoff, and terminal timeout_or_stall states; (b) include provider/model/base URL source and auth source category without leaking secrets; (c) support a CLI/request timeout flag or env override that returns a typed JSON error before the outer orchestrator kills the process; (d) write/emit a final partial status artifact on timeout so lane monitors do not have to infer state from a dead process. Why this matters: non-interactive prompt mode is the automation path; if it can hang past the caller's timeout while doctor/status are green, claws lose the ability to tell whether startup, auth, transport, provider latency, or stream consumption failed.

CC2-RM-A0469-issue-advertises-github-issue-creation-b

Title: /issue advertises GitHub issue creation but never reaches a GitHub/OAuth/auth preflight or creation path, and the non-interactive error suggests unusable resume forms — dogfooded 2026-04-29 on current main 8e22f757 while chasing the remaining Phase-0 GitHub OAuth blocker. The visible help advertises /issue [context] as “Draft or create a GitHub issue from the conversation,” but the actual implementation path only renders a local Issue report (format_issue_report) and does not invoke gh, GitHub API, OAuth, token discovery, browser auth, or even a dry-run/auth-preflight surface. Direct non-interactive use (./rust/target/debug/claw '/issue dogfood test') returns slash command /issue dogfood test is interactive-only and suggests claw --resume SESSION.jsonl /issue ... / claw --resume latest /issue ... “when the command is marked [resume]”, while /help does not mark /issue as resume-safe and resume dispatch rejects interactive-only commands. That leaves operators with a GitHub-labeled command whose real behavior is neither issue creation nor a clear GitHub OAuth blocker. Required fix shape: (a) split the contract explicitly: either rename/copy to “draft issue text” or implement a real create path with GitHub auth preflight; (b) surface a machine-readable GitHub auth state (gh_cli_authenticated, github_token_present, oauth_required, creation_unavailable) before any issue-create attempt; (c) make the direct-mode error avoid suggesting resume forms for commands not marked resume-safe; (d) add regression coverage proving /issue help, direct-mode rejection, resume support flags, and creation/draft behavior agree. Why this matters: Phase-0 GitHub OAuth verification cannot complete if the only GitHub issue surface stops at local prose while still advertising creation. Claws need to know whether they are missing GitHub auth, using a draft-only helper, or hitting an unimplemented creation path.

CC2-RM-A0470-config-deprecation-warnings-are-emitted

Title: Config deprecation warnings are emitted to stderr even under --output-format json, making JSON output unparseable from combined stdout+stderr capture — dogfooded 2026-04-29 by Jobdori on current main (8e22f75). Running cargo run --bin claw -- doctor --output-format json 2>&1 | python3 -c "import sys,json; json.loads(sys.stdin.read())" fails with Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0) because a warning: /path/settings.json: field "enabledPlugins" is deprecated. Use "plugins.enabled" instead line is emitted to stderr before the JSON body begins. When a caller captures combined output (the common automation pattern: 2>&1, subprocess STDOUT | STDERR, PTY capture, or tmux pane scrape) the warning prefix breaks JSON parse for every downstream consumer. Root cause: rust/crates/runtime/src/config.rs line ~300 calls eprintln!("warning: {warning}") unconditionally during ClawSettings::load_merged() regardless of active output format. Required fix shape: (a) thread the active CliOutputFormat through the config loading path and suppress or defer human-readable warning strings when json mode is active; (b) instead, collect deprecation diagnostics and inject them into the JSON output as a top-level "warnings": [...] array (same field already used by doctor); (c) ensure the JSON body is always the first bytes on stdout and all prose warnings stay on stderr or are suppressed in json mode; (d) add regression coverage proving claw <any-cmd> --output-format json stdout is valid JSON regardless of config deprecation state. Why this matters: --output-format json is the automation/claw contract; if config warnings can silently corrupt the JSON stream, every orchestration layer that captures combined output gets broken parse-on-warning with no stable fallback.

CC2-RM-A0471-status-output-format-json-reports-sessio

Title: status --output-format json reports session.session = "live-repl" while simultaneously reporting session_lifecycle.kind = "saved_only" — contradictory session identity in a single status snapshot — dogfooded 2026-04-29 by Jobdori on current main (804d96b). Running claw status --output-format json from an active REPL-style invocation produced "session": "live-repl" in the workspace block and "session_lifecycle": {"kind": "saved_only", "pane_id": null, ...} in the same object. Those two fields carry contradictory claims: "live-repl" asserts there is an active interactive session, while "saved_only" asserts there is no live tmux pane hosting the session — the session exists only as a saved artifact. A downstream claw reading this snapshot cannot tell which claim to trust: is this a running session whose pane is undetectable, or a saved-only session that the session field is misclassifying? Root cause: "live-repl" is a fallback sentinel emitted by main.rs:6070 when context.session_path is None, while session_lifecycle is computed independently by classify_session_lifecycle_for() from tmux pane discovery; the two fields share no common source and can diverge. Required fix shape: (a) derive both session.session and session_lifecycle.kind from the same lifecycle classification result so they cannot diverge; (b) replace the "live-repl" free-form sentinel with a structured session_kind field (live_repl, saved, resume, etc.) that carries the same type vocabulary as session_lifecycle.kind; (c) when session_lifecycle.kind = "saved_only", never emit "session": "live-repl" (or vice versa); (d) add a regression test proving status --output-format json never emits session.kind = "live_repl" and session_lifecycle.kind = "saved_only" simultaneously. Why this matters: status --output-format json is the machine-readable truth surface for session state; if two fields in the same snapshot contradict each other, every lane, monitor, and orchestrator has to pick a winner instead of reading a coherent state.

The working tree was at e7074f47, but running ./rust/target/debug/claw version --output-format json reported embedded git_sha 1f901988. status and doctor remained green and exposed no warning that the executable under test was stale relative to the workspace HEAD, nor any structured build-provenance freshness signal that downstream claws could use to decide whether the observed behavior came from the checked-out code or an older debug artifact. This is a repo-identity opacity gap: the JSON truth surfaces can look authoritative while actually describing a different binary lineage than the source tree being dogfooded. Required fix shape: (a) compare the embedded build git_sha / build date with the current workspace git HEAD and dirty state when the binary can discover a containing worktree; (b) expose redaction-safe structured fields in version --output-format json, status --output-format json, and doctor --output-format json, including binary_provenance, workspace_head, and stale_binary (with enough reason/detail to distinguish clean match, dirty workspace, unknown workspace, and definite stale SHA mismatch); (c) warn in human/text mode when executing a stale local debug binary such as ./rust/target/debug/claw so dogfooders do not trust old behavior as current-main evidence; (d) avoid leaking secrets or absolute sensitive paths beyond the existing workspace-identification policy; (e) add regression/fixture coverage for matching HEAD, dirty workspace, no-worktree/unknown provenance, and stale embedded SHA cases. Why this matters: status/doctor/version are supposed to be the machine-readable basis for dogfood truth. If a stale binary can report a different git_sha than the checked-out repo without any freshness warning, claws can file or verify bugs against the wrong code and waste cycles chasing already-fixed or not-yet-built behavior.

CC2-RM-A0473-help-output-format-json-returns-valid-js

Title: help --output-format json returns valid JSON but hides the actual help schema inside one prose message string — dogfooded 2026-04-29 on current origin/main / workspace HEAD d607ff36. Running ./rust/target/debug/claw help --output-format json produces parseable JSON, but the object only exposes top-level keys like kind and message; all command names, global flags, slash-command metadata, aliases, resume-safety, output-format support, auth/preflight notes, and descriptions are flattened into one human-oriented prose blob. That technically satisfies “valid JSON” while still forcing automation to scrape the same help text humans read, making /issue, /help, and resume-safety contracts opaque to claws. Required fix shape: (a) keep message as the compact human-rendered help summary, but add a documented structured schema with schema / schema_version fields; (b) expose first-class arrays/objects such as commands[], options[], and slash_commands[] with stable fields including name, aliases, description, args, output_formats_supported, resume_safe, interactive_only, and creates_external_side_effects; (c) include auth and creation preflight metadata where relevant, especially for GitHub/issue flows (auth_preflight, creation_unavailable, gh_cli_authenticated, github_token_present, or equivalent non-secret state); (d) make /issue, /help, aliases, and resume-dispatch safety machine-readable from the JSON payload instead of recoverable only by parsing prose markers; (e) add regression coverage proving help --output-format json is valid JSON and that /issue, /help, resume-safe vs interactive-only slash commands, aliases, descriptions, supported output formats, and side-effect/auth-preflight fields are present and internally consistent. Why this matters: help JSON is the discoverability surface automation uses before invoking commands. If it is just prose wrapped in JSON, claws cannot safely decide whether a command can run non-interactively, resume from a saved session, create external GitHub side effects, or requires auth/preflight without brittle text scraping.

The active OMX session claw-code-issue-326-dogfood-pinpoint was running in /mnt/offloading/Workspace/claw-code with two panes: %9384 (cmd=node, active pane) and %9385 (cmd=node, inactive sidecar pane). tmux list-panes -a -F '#{session_name}:#{window_index}.#{pane_index} #{pane_id} pid=#{pane_pid} cmd=#{pane_current_command} cwd=#{pane_current_path} active=#{pane_active}' showed both panes in the same session/workspace, but ./rust/target/debug/claw status --output-format json collapsed the workspace lifecycle to a single object: session_lifecycle.kind = "running_process", pane_id = "%9384", pane_command = "node", with no panes[], process count, sidecar/secondary-pane inventory, or ambiguity marker. A downstream claw reading only status JSON would believe there is exactly one live process for that workspace even though the control plane has multiple panes in the same task session. Required fix shape: (a) expose a structured active-session inventory in status --output-format json, including panes[] or processes[] with pane id, command, cwd, active flag, and session/window identity for all matching workspace panes; (b) keep the compact session_lifecycle summary, but add an explicit pane_count / has_sidecar_panes / inventory_truncated signal so summaries cannot masquerade as complete truth; (c) define how to classify primary vs sidecar/inactive panes without losing them, and make the chosen primary pane provenance visible; (d) add regression coverage for a tmux session with two panes in one workspace proving status JSON reports both panes or marks the inventory as partial. Why this matters: status JSON is the machine-readable lane truth surface. If it reports only the primary pane while hiding secondary panes, clawhip and other claws can miss sidecar workers, blocked helpers, stale subprocesses, or duplicated control-plane processes and make bad restart/cleanup/routing decisions from an undercounted session snapshot.

CC2-RM-A0475-claw-mcp-help-omits-claw-json-from-its-d

Title: claw mcp help omits .claw.json from its documented config sources even though claw mcp still loads MCP servers from .claw.json — dogfooded 2026-04-29 on current origin/main / workspace HEAD 981aff7c after rebuilding the actual debug binary with cargo run --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml --bin claw -- version --output-format json so ./rust/target/debug/claw version --output-format json reported embedded git_sha 981aff7c matching the workspace. Running ./rust/target/debug/claw mcp --help printed Sources .claw/settings.json, .claw/settings.local.json, and ./rust/target/debug/claw mcp help --output-format json returned "sources": [".claw/settings.json", ".claw/settings.local.json"]. In the same rebuilt binary, a temp workspace containing only a project .claw.json with {"mcpServers":{"demo":{"command":"/bin/echo","args":["hi"]}}} made ./rust/target/debug/claw mcp --output-format json report configured_servers: 1 and servers[0].name: "demo". The MCP lifecycle surface therefore tells users and claws that .claw.json is not a source while actively accepting it as one. This is distinct from #322's JSON warning corruption, #323/#326's status lifecycle contradictions, #324's stale-binary provenance gap, and #325's top-level help schema flattening: the pinpoint is a concrete MCP subcommand source-of-truth mismatch in both text and JSON help. Required fix shape: (a) derive the mcp help source list from the same ConfigLoader::discover/settings-source registry that mcp list actually uses instead of hard-coding a partial list; (b) include all supported MCP config sources in stable order, including legacy/project .claw.json, user ~/.claw/settings.json, project .claw/settings.json, and local .claw/settings.local.json as applicable; (c) add source metadata to mcp --output-format json entries so each server can be attributed to the file/layer that provided it; (d) add a regression proving a server loaded from .claw.json is accompanied by help/JSON source metadata that names .claw.json, and that help stays in sync when config source discovery changes. Why this matters: MCP setup is already a high-friction lifecycle path; if the command that diagnoses MCP servers omits a still-supported source, operators can move or delete the wrong config file, and automation cannot tell whether .claw.json support is intentional compatibility or accidental legacy behavior. Source: gaebal-gajae dogfood in /home/bellman/Workspace/claw-code on 2026-04-29 using the rebuilt actual ./rust/target/debug/claw; temp-workspace proof showed .claw.json loads one MCP server while mcp help documents only .claw/settings*.json sources.

CC2-RM-A0476-claw-agents-help-omits-the-codex-agents

Title: claw agents help omits the .codex/agents roots that claw agents actually loads from, so native-agent discovery provenance is misleading — dogfooded 2026-04-29 on current origin/main / workspace HEAD ee85fed6 after rebuilding the actual debug binary with cargo run --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml --bin claw -- version --output-format json; ./rust/target/debug/claw version --output-format json then reported embedded git_sha ee85fed6, matching the workspace. Running ./rust/target/debug/claw agents help --output-format json returned usage.sources = [".claw/agents", "~/.claw/agents", "$CLAW_CONFIG_HOME/agents"], with no .codex/agents or ~/.codex/agents entry. In the same environment, ./rust/target/debug/claw agents --output-format json listed native agents such as analyst with source {id: "user_claw", label: "User home roots"} even though /home/bellman/.claw/agents does not exist and /home/bellman/.codex/agents/analyst.toml does exist. The agents lifecycle surface therefore documents one set of roots while loading from another, and the loaded-agent provenance collapses the real Codex root behind a generic user_claw label. This is distinct from #327's MCP source-list mismatch: the affected subsystem is native-agent discovery, where claws choose delegation/staffing lanes from claw agents and need to know which root supplied each agent. Required fix shape: (a) derive agents help source roots from the same registry/search path used by the agent loader instead of a hard-coded .claw-only list; (b) include all supported native-agent roots in stable order, including project/user .codex/agents roots alongside .claw/agents and $CLAW_CONFIG_HOME/agents; (c) make each agents --output-format json entry expose non-secret source provenance precise enough to distinguish user_codex, project_codex, user_claw, and project_claw (without leaking unnecessary absolute paths); (d) add a regression proving an agent loaded from ~/.codex/agents is accompanied by help-source metadata naming that root and per-agent provenance that does not mislabel it as generic user_claw. Why this matters: agent selection is a control-plane decision. If help says only .claw/agents are searched while the runtime actually consumes .codex/agents, claws and operators can edit the wrong directory, misdiagnose missing/stale agents, or trust the wrong ownership boundary for delegated work. Source: gaebal-gajae dogfood in /home/bellman/Workspace/claw-code on 2026-04-29 using rebuilt ./rust/target/debug/claw; proof commands showed agents help omitting .codex/agents while agents loaded analyst from the existing /home/bellman/.codex/agents/analyst.toml with no /home/bellman/.claw/agents directory present.

CC2-RM-A0477-resume-safe-slash-agents-output-format-j

Title: Resume-safe slash /agents --output-format json downgrades structured agent inventory into prose even though top-level claw agents --output-format json returns machine-readable entries — dogfooded 2026-04-29 on current origin/main / workspace HEAD 0f7578c0 after rebuilding the actual debug binary with cargo run --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml --bin claw -- version --output-format json; ./rust/target/debug/claw version --output-format json reported embedded git_sha 0f7578c0, matching the workspace. Running ./rust/target/debug/claw --resume latest /agents --output-format json returned only {"kind":"agents","text":"Agents\n 20 active agents..."}: the agent names, source ids, models, reasoning effort, active/shadowed state, and working-directory context are all flattened into one human prose string. In the same rebuilt binary and same workspace, ./rust/target/debug/claw agents --output-format json returned a structured object with top-level agents[], count, summary, working_directory, and per-agent fields such as name, description, model, reasoning_effort, active, shadowed_by, and source. The resume-safe slash surface therefore looks JSON-shaped while throwing away exactly the structured inventory that automation needs, and it diverges from the already-existing top-level command schema. This is distinct from #325's broad help JSON opacity and #328's source-root mismatch: the pinpoint is the /agents slash command losing structured inventory in resume mode even though the non-slash agents command already has it. Required fix shape: (a) make resume-safe /agents --output-format json reuse the same serializer/schema as claw agents --output-format json instead of wrapping rendered text; (b) preserve per-agent source/provenance fields, model/reasoning metadata, active/shadowed state, count/summary, and working-directory context; (c) keep text or message as an optional human summary only, not the sole payload; (d) add regression coverage proving top-level claw agents --output-format json and resume-safe /agents --output-format json expose equivalent structured agent inventory for the same workspace. Why this matters: /agents is the in-session delegation/staffing truth surface. Claws operating through --resume latest need to choose agents without scraping prose; losing structure at the slash boundary makes automated staffing brittle and contradicts the top-level command contract. Source: gaebal-gajae dogfood in /home/bellman/Workspace/claw-code on 2026-04-29 using rebuilt ./rust/target/debug/claw; proof commands showed slash /agents JSON had only kind,text while top-level agents JSON had agents[] and provenance metadata.

CC2-RM-A0478-status-session-list-output-format-json-s

Title: status / /session list --output-format json session lifecycle reports workspace_dirty: true and abandoned: true but omits dirty-file detail and abandonment cause, making automated GC unable to distinguish live work from crash leftovers — restored from PR #2852 / Jobdori dogfood on current main (0f7578c). The evidence bundle listed 10 sessions and every listed session had workspace_dirty: true plus abandoned: true; each lifecycle object exposed abandoned: true, kind: "saved_only", pane_id: null, and workspace_dirty: true, but did not include dirty_file_count, dirty_file_paths / summary, or abandoned_reason. That leaves cleanup policy with only a boolean dirty/abandoned pair: it cannot tell whether a saved-only session contains intentional uncommitted user work, a harmless stale pane artifact, or crash leftovers that are safe to collect. Required fix shape: (a) add dirty_file_count: u32 to session lifecycle/status payloads whenever dirty state is evaluated; (b) add an abandoned_reason enum such as pane_closed, process_killed, session_replaced, workspace_missing, or unknown instead of a bare boolean-only abandonment signal; (c) optionally add summarized dirty_file_paths / dirty_file_summary with truncation metadata so automation can present useful evidence without leaking excessive path detail; (d) add regression coverage proving dirty abandoned saved-only sessions include file count, abandonment reason, and stable behavior when path summaries are omitted or truncated. Why this matters: session GC must not delete live user work, but it also cannot leave every crash leftover forever. A lifecycle object that says only workspace_dirty: true and abandoned: true forces cleanup tooling to guess instead of applying a safe policy from structured evidence. Source: PR #2852 / Jobdori dogfood; all 10 listed sessions shared the same dirty+abandoned shape, and the sample lifecycle object had abandoned: true, kind: "saved_only", pane_id: null, workspace_dirty: true, with no dirty-file count, path summary, or abandonment reason.

CC2-RM-A0479-top-level-help-output-format-json-and-re

Title: Top-level help --output-format json and resume-safe /help --output-format json use different payload fields for the same help surface (message vs text) — dogfooded 2026-04-29 on current origin/main / workspace HEAD 24ccb59b after rebuilding the actual debug binary with cargo run --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml --bin claw -- version --output-format json; ./rust/target/debug/claw version --output-format json reported embedded git_sha 24ccb59b, matching the workspace. Running ./rust/target/debug/claw help --output-format json returned a valid JSON object with keys kind,message, while ./rust/target/debug/claw --resume latest /help --output-format json returned the same conceptual help surface with keys kind,text. Both are prose-only help payloads, but automation now has to special-case whether help was reached through the top-level command dispatcher or the resume-safe slash dispatcher before it can even locate the rendered help body. This is distinct from #325's broader structured-schema absence: the pinpoint here is a concrete JSON field-name contract drift between two help entrypoints that should be equivalent or explicitly versioned. Required fix shape: (a) define one canonical help JSON body field such as message or text and use it consistently across top-level help, slash /help, and resume-safe /help; (b) if backward compatibility requires both fields temporarily, emit both with identical contents plus a schema_version and deprecation metadata; (c) add regression coverage proving claw help --output-format json and claw --resume latest /help --output-format json expose the same top-level field contract and kind=help; (d) document whether slash-command JSON is intended to share schemas with top-level command JSON or carry its own explicit schema namespace. Why this matters: help JSON is the bootstrap discoverability surface for claws. If the same help concept moves its body between message and text depending on invocation path, every orchestrator needs brittle per-entrypoint parsers before it can inspect commands, flags, or resume safety.

Title: /session delete is not resume-safe while /session list is, making session GC impossible from --resume mode automation — dogfooded 2026-04-30 by Jobdori on 24ccb59. Running claw --output-format json --resume latest /session list succeeds and returns the full session list (10 sessions, all workspace_dirty: true, abandoned: true). Running claw --output-format json --resume latest /session delete <id> returns {"command":"...","error":"unsupported resumed slash command","type":"error"} — again using "type" not "kind" (#336 vocab violation). An automation lane that discovers abandoned sessions via --resume cannot delete any of them via the same path; it must spawn an interactive REPL session just to issue delete, breaking the machine-readable JSON surface contract. Required fix shape: (a) mark /session delete as resume-safe; (b) return {"kind":"session_deleted","session_id":"<id>","path":"<deleted_path>"} on success; (c) require --force only for dirty/active sessions; (d) add regression coverage.

CC2-RM-A0481-resume-safe-session-help-output-format-j

Title: Resume-safe /session help --output-format json writes its primary JSON error envelope to stderr and uses type instead of the session JSON kind vocabulary — dogfooded 2026-04-29 on current origin/main / rebuilt ./rust/target/debug/claw with embedded git_sha dc47482e. Running ./rust/target/debug/claw --resume latest /session help --output-format json wrote no stdout bytes, but wrote a JSON error object to stderr: {"command":"/session help","error":"Unknown /session action ...","type":"error"}. Meanwhile /session list --output-format json wrote valid stdout JSON with kind=session_list. The JSON output contract is therefore split across stderr for an error/help-ish action and switches vocabulary from kind to type; automation that reads stdout sees empty/non-JSON output and cannot handle errors consistently with successful session JSON responses. Required fix shape: (a) all --output-format json command responses, including resumed slash errors, should emit the primary JSON envelope on stdout; (b) use kind:"error" or a documented error schema consistently instead of an ad hoc type field; (c) reserve stderr prose for text mode or optional non-primary diagnostics, not the machine-readable envelope; (d) add a regression for /session help or an unsupported /session action under --resume proving stdout contains the structured JSON error envelope and stderr does not carry the only parseable payload. Why this matters: claws need one stdout JSON contract for both success and failure. If a help-ish session error is silently moved to stderr and shaped differently from session_list, orchestration lanes cannot distinguish an unsupported action from transport corruption or an empty response without bespoke stderr parsing.

Running ./rust/target/debug/claw --resume latest /tasks --output-format json wrote no stdout bytes, but wrote a JSON error object to stderr: {"command":"/tasks","error":"/tasks is not yet implemented in this build","kind":"unsupported_command","type":"error"}. The unsupported command envelope therefore has two separate top-level classification vocabularies (kind=unsupported_command and type=error) and places the only parseable payload on stderr, while successful JSON commands use stdout and a kind-only classification. This is distinct from #340 because it is not session help; it shows implemented-but-unsupported command stubs can emit a dual-vocabulary error envelope. Required fix shape: (a) in --output-format json mode, emit the primary JSON envelope on stdout for unsupported resumed slash commands such as /tasks; (b) document and use one error discriminator, preferably kind:"error" plus code:"unsupported_command", or kind:"unsupported_command" plus status:"error", but not type; (c) reserve stderr for non-primary diagnostics or text-mode prose, never as the sole JSON payload; (d) add regression coverage for /tasks under --resume with JSON output proving stdout contains the structured error envelope, stderr is not the only parseable stream, and the envelope uses the documented single-vocabulary discriminator. Why this matters: claws need the same stdout JSON contract for implemented successes and implemented-but-unsupported stubs. If /tasks errors can silently move to stderr and advertise both kind and type, automation must special-case command stubs instead of applying one JSON error parser.

Title: Resume-safe /commands --output-format json is rejected as an unknown slash command even though the error points users at /help for slash-command discovery, leaving no structured command-index alias — dogfooded 2026-04-29 for the 16:30 nudge on current origin/main / rebuilt ./rust/target/debug/claw with embedded git_sha f65b2b4f. Running ./rust/target/debug/claw --resume latest /commands --output-format json wrote no stdout bytes and emitted only stderr JSON: {"command":"/commands","error":"Unknown slash command: /commands\n Help /help lists available slash commands","type":"error"}. In the same rebuilt binary, ./rust/target/debug/claw --resume latest /help --output-format json succeeded on stdout but exposed only prose keys kind,text. The discoverability path therefore has two gaps at once: the intuitive /commands index/alias is unavailable, and the fallback suggestion is buried inside an error string rather than surfaced as structured suggested_command / discovery_command metadata. This is distinct from #340 and #341: the pinpoint is not merely stderr-only JSON error placement, but the absence of a machine-readable slash-command discovery alias/index and typed correction guidance when users or claws try the natural /commands form. Required fix shape: (a) either implement /commands as a resume-safe alias for slash-command discovery or return a typed unknown_command JSON envelope with suggested_command:"/help" and discovery_command:"/help" fields; (b) make the primary JSON error envelope follow the stdout JSON contract and single-discriminator schema from #340/#341; (c) expose structured slash-command inventory from the discovery surface rather than requiring callers to scrape text; (d) add regression coverage proving /commands --output-format json either returns the structured command inventory or returns a structured correction that automation can follow without parsing prose. Why this matters: claws need a predictable way to discover valid slash commands before invoking them. If the natural command-index spelling fails with stderr-only JSON and a human-formatted hint, orchestration has to guess, parse prose, and special-case command discovery before it can even learn the supported command surface.

Immediately following the suggested correction with ./rust/target/debug/claw --resume latest /model --output-format json also wrote no stdout bytes and returned {"command":"/model","error":"unsupported resumed slash command","type":"error"}. The correction path therefore points automation from an unknown plural form to a command that cannot run in the same resume-safe noninteractive mode, while /tokens --output-format json succeeds and exposes only token counters. This is distinct from #342's missing /commands discovery alias: the pinpoint here is dead-end suggestion quality and resume-safety awareness in Did you mean guidance. Required fix shape: (a) make unknown-command suggestions context-aware so resume-mode JSON only suggests commands that are actually resume-safe for the current invocation, or labels non-resume-safe suggestions with resume_safe:false; (b) expose suggestions as structured suggestions[] objects with command, resume_safe, reason, and optional replacement_for fields instead of burying them in the error string; (c) if /model remains interactive-only, suggest a machine-readable status/config/model inspection command that works under --resume, or return a typed interactive_only blocker; (d) add regression coverage proving /models --output-format json does not recommend an unusable /model command without structured resume-safety metadata. Why this matters: claws follow correction hints automatically. A suggestion that leads straight into another unsupported resumed slash command turns error recovery into a loop and makes command discovery less trustworthy than no suggestion at all.

The same shape appears for natural discovery forms such as /config list and /config show, while bare /config --output-format json succeeds and returns config-file data. The config surface is therefore resume-supported, but its section discovery/help path is only available as a human-formatted error string on stderr, with no structured sections[], no help alias, and no typed unsupported_section metadata. This is distinct from #342's missing slash-command index and #343's dead-end suggestion: the pinpoint is a command-specific subcommand/section discovery contract for an otherwise working resume-safe command. Required fix shape: (a) make /config help or /config sections resume-safe and return stdout JSON containing supported sections such as env, hooks, model, and plugins; (b) for unsupported config sections, emit a typed JSON envelope with kind:"error" or equivalent plus code:"unsupported_config_section", section, and structured supported_sections[]; (c) keep human usage text optional, not the only machine-readable recovery path; (d) add regression coverage proving /config help --output-format json or its canonical replacement exposes structured section metadata and that /config list/show errors include structured supported-section guidance. Why this matters: config inspection is a control-plane surface. Claws should not have to intentionally trigger an error and scrape prose to learn which config sections can be inspected under --resume; section discovery needs the same machine-readable contract as the config payload itself.

Running ./rust/target/debug/claw --resume latest /config env --output-format json, /config hooks, /config model, and /config plugins all wrote stdout JSON successfully and no stderr, but each response had the same top-level shape and values: kind:"config", cwd, files[], loaded_files:1, and merged_keys:1. None of the outputs included the requested section, section-specific keys, hook/model/plugin/env data, section_missing, section_empty, or truncation metadata; the env, hooks, model, and plugins arguments appear to be accepted while producing an indistinguishable generic config summary. This is distinct from #344's missing config-section discovery/help path: the pinpoint here is that the advertised section-specific entrypoints do not produce section-specific machine-readable payloads once invoked. Required fix shape: (a) include a section field in /config <section> --output-format json responses; (b) return section-specific structured payloads for env, hooks, model, and plugins, with explicit empty/missing states when applicable; (c) preserve the config-file provenance summary separately from the requested section content so callers can tell what was inspected; (d) add regression coverage proving the four supported sections produce distinguishable JSON contracts and do not silently collapse to the bare /config summary. Why this matters: config inspection is used to diagnose model, hook, plugin, and env lifecycle issues. If every supported section returns the same generic file list, claws cannot tell whether a section is empty, unsupported, redacted, or simply ignored, and config troubleshooting remains prose/error archaeology instead of structured state inspection.

CC2-RM-A0487-top-level-agents-show-name-output-format

Title: Top-level agents show <name> --output-format json accepts a natural agent-detail request but falls back to generic help JSON instead of returning the selected agent or a typed unsupported-detail error — dogfooded 2026-04-29 for the 20:00 nudge on current origin/main / rebuilt ./rust/target/debug/claw with embedded git_sha c6c01bea. Running ./rust/target/debug/claw agents list --output-format json returned a valid stdout JSON inventory with kind:"agents", action:"list", and an agents[] entry named analyst. Immediately running ./rust/target/debug/claw agents show analyst --output-format json returned success on stdout but did not return the analyst detail object; instead it returned generic help-shaped JSON: {"action":"help","kind":"agents","unexpected":"show analyst","usage":{"direct_cli":"claw agents [list|help]","slash_command":"/agents [list|help]",...}}. Both stderr streams were empty. The command therefore accepts a natural detail-inspection spelling, recognizes it only as unexpected, and hides the absence of an agent-detail surface behind a successful help fallback rather than a typed unsupported_agents_action / agent_detail_unavailable error. This is distinct from #328 and #329: those cover source/provenance mismatch and slash /agents inventory flattening, while this pinpoint is the missing top-level agent detail/inspection contract after inventory discovery succeeds. Required fix shape: (a) either implement agents show <name> --output-format json returning the selected agent's structured fields and provenance, or return a non-success typed JSON error with code:"unsupported_agents_action", requested_action:"show", and supported_actions:["list","help"]; (b) include agent_name and whether the name exists in the current inventory when rejecting detail inspection; (c) avoid action:"help" success envelopes for unsupported subcommands because they make failed detail inspection look like intentional help output; (d) add regression coverage proving agents show analyst --output-format json does not silently collapse to generic help when analyst exists in agents list. Why this matters: claws discover agents first, then need to inspect a chosen agent before delegation. If the natural detail command returns successful generic help instead of a selected-agent payload or typed unsupported-action error, automation cannot distinguish typo, unsupported detail view, missing agent, or successful help request without comparing unrelated inventory output.

Title: Top-level mcp show <missing-server> --output-format json reports a missing server as status:"ok" instead of a typed not-found/error status — dogfooded 2026-04-29 for the 20:30 nudge on current origin/main / rebuilt ./rust/target/debug/claw with embedded git_sha ee41b266. After rebuilding and verifying the binary provenance, running ./rust/target/debug/claw mcp show does-not-exist --output-format json returned stdout JSON with {"action":"show","config_load_error":null,"found":false,"kind":"mcp","message":"server does-not-exist is not configured","server_name":"does-not-exist","status":"ok"} and no stderr. found:false is useful, but pairing it with status:"ok" makes the command-level outcome ambiguous: a missing requested server is not an OK inspection result for automation that needs to distinguish successful detail retrieval from a not-found lookup. This is distinct from #327's MCP source-list mismatch and the invalid #2874/#2879/#2880 hang/nondeterminism hypotheses that were closed after bounded repros. Required fix shape: (a) return a typed not-found status such as status:"not_found" or kind:"error" plus code:"mcp_server_not_found" while preserving server_name and optional available_servers[]; (b) document whether found:false objects are considered success or error and keep that convention consistent across text and JSON modes; (c) ensure process exit semantics match the JSON status contract or expose a separate exit_ok/lookup_status field; (d) add regression coverage proving missing-server lookup is distinguishable from successful server detail retrieval without parsing the human message. Why this matters: MCP inspection is a control-plane diagnostic. If a missing server returns status:"ok", claws can silently treat a failed lookup as healthy MCP state unless they special-case found:false, which defeats the purpose of a clear machine-readable status field.

Running ./rust/target/debug/claw plugins list --output-format json repeatedly returned valid stdout JSON with {"action":"list","kind":"plugin","message":"Plugins\n example-bundled v0.1.0 disabled\n sample-hooks v0.1.0 disabled","reload_runtime":false,"target":null} and no stderr. The actual plugin names, versions, and enabled/disabled states are present only inside the human-formatted message table; there is no plugins[] array, no per-plugin name, version, enabled, source, load_error, or lifecycle/action metadata. This is distinct from #325's broad help JSON opacity and the config/MCP/agent items: the affected surface is plugin lifecycle inventory, where automation needs a structured list before enabling, disabling, updating, or uninstalling plugins. Required fix shape: (a) add plugins[] with stable per-plugin fields such as name, version, enabled, source, configured, load_status, and optional error; (b) keep message only as a human summary, not the sole inventory payload; (c) expose counts and truncation metadata if the list can be large; (d) add regression coverage proving plugins list --output-format json can be parsed without scraping the prose message and that disabled/enabled state survives as booleans/enums. Why this matters: plugin lifecycle management is a control-plane path. If the JSON inventory is just a text table, claws must scrape spacing-sensitive prose before deciding whether a plugin is installed, disabled, broken, or safe to mutate.

After rebuilding and verifying the binary provenance, repeated bounded runs of ./rust/target/debug/claw plugins show does-not-exist --output-format json returned stdout JSON with {"action":"show","kind":"plugin","message":"Unknown /plugins action 'show'. Use list, install, enable, disable, uninstall, or update.","reload_runtime":false,"target":"does-not-exist"} and no stderr. The command therefore reports the requested unsupported action as the top-level action:"show" and exits successfully while hiding the failure class inside a human message; it does not provide status:"unsupported_action", code:"plugin_action_unsupported", or structured supported_actions[]. This is distinct from #348's prose-only plugin inventory schema: #348 covers plugins list payload shape, while this pinpoint covers unsupported plugin action classification and recovery metadata. Required fix shape: (a) return a typed stdout JSON error or explicit non-ok status for unsupported plugin actions, with requested_action, supported_actions, and target fields; (b) do not label the primary action as the unsupported requested verb unless a separate status/code makes the failure unambiguous; (c) keep the human message optional and avoid making it the only way to detect the unsupported action; (d) add regression coverage proving plugins show foo --output-format json is machine-classifiable as unsupported without scraping prose. Why this matters: plugin lifecycle automation follows action/status fields. If an unsupported mutation/inspection verb returns success-shaped JSON and only says "Unknown" in prose, claws can treat a failed preflight as a valid plugin show result and continue toward unsafe lifecycle actions.

This is distinct from #348's prose-only list inventory and #349's unsupported plugins show success-shaped JSON: #350 covers a supported lifecycle verb (enable) against an absent target, where the CLI should be able to fail fast before any plugin runtime work. Required fix shape: (a) validate the target plugin against the discovered/configured inventory before invoking enable-side effects; (b) return bounded stdout JSON such as kind:"plugin", action:"enable", status:"not_found" or kind:"error", code:"plugin_not_found", plugin, and optional available_plugins[]; (c) add internal timeout/diagnostic metadata for plugin lifecycle operations so registry or hook stalls do not produce silent zero-byte hangs; (d) add regression coverage proving plugins enable does-not-exist --output-format json returns a typed JSON outcome within a deterministic budget and does not mutate plugin state. Why this matters: enable/disable/update/uninstall are destructive control-plane actions. A missing or stale plugin name must fail safely and machine-readably; otherwise claws cannot preflight plugin lifecycle operations, distinguish typo from loader deadlock, or recover without killing a hung process.

This is distinct from prior plugin lifecycle stream/status items: the affected surface is memory command introspection, where claws need safe local help/inventory before reading or mutating memory. Required fix shape: (a) make memory help and memory list --output-format json return bounded local JSON without requiring external/authenticated backing store availability; (b) return stdout JSON with kind:"memory", action:"help"|"list", status, usage or entries[], source/provenance, counts, and truncation metadata; (c) if credentials/config/backing store are missing or slow, return a typed JSON unavailable/config/timeout error instead of hanging; (d) add regression coverage proving both memory help --output-format json and memory list --output-format json return machine-readable outcomes within a deterministic budget. Why this matters: memory is a core clawability surface.

CC2-RM-A0501-top-level-cache-help-output-format-json

Title: Top-level cache --help --output-format json hangs with zero stdout/stderr instead of returning bounded command help JSON — dogfooded 2026-04-30 for the 03:00 nudge on current origin/main / rebuilt ./rust/target/debug/claw with embedded git_sha d95b230c. After #358 and #380 landed for the cost/tokens preflight help hangs, a fresh adjacent probe on the cache-control surface showed the same silent failure class: repeated bounded runs of timeout --kill-after=1s 8s ./rust/target/debug/claw cache --help --output-format json exited 124 with stdout=0 and stderr=0. In the same rebuilt binary, version --output-format json returned promptly with version/build metadata, proving the binary itself and JSON output path are reachable. This is distinct from the separate /cache slash-command envelope mismatch class: the affected surface here is top-level cache command help, where agents need bounded local discovery before deciding whether to inspect, clear, or summarize cache state. Required fix shape: (a) make cache --help --output-format json return static/bounded stdout JSON with kind:"help" or kind:"cache", action:"help", usage, options, examples, supported output formats, and related slash/direct commands; (b) ensure help rendering does not initialize slow cache/session/provider state; (c) if any dynamic provider is consulted, return a typed JSON timeout/unavailable error instead of hanging; (d) add regression coverage proving cache help in JSON mode returns within a deterministic budget. Why this matters: cache inspection and cleanup are recovery/control-plane operations. If cache help hangs silently, claws cannot safely discover cache semantics before attempting cleanup, and automation stalls before it can choose a non-destructive cache action.

Title: export --output-format json and --resume latest report the same "no managed sessions" scenario using two different kind codes — no_managed_sessions vs session_load_failed — making "no session found" undetectable by a single kind-code check — dogfooded 2026-04-30 KST (UTC+9) by Jobdori on e939777f. Running claw export --output-format json with no session present returns (on stderr, exit 1): {"error":"no managed sessions found in .claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/","hint":"Start \claw` to create a session, then rerun with `--resume latest`.\nNote: claw partitions sessions per workspace fingerprint; sessions from other CWDs are invisible.","kind":"no_managed_sessions","type":"error"}. Running claw --resume latest /status --output-format jsonwith no session present returns (on stderr, exit 1):{"error":"failed to restore session: no managed sessions found in .claw/sessions//","hint":"Start `claw` to create a session, then rerun with `--resume latest`.\nNote: claw partitions sessions per workspace fingerprint; sessions from other CWDs are invisible.","kind":"session_load_failed","type":"error"}. Both describe the same root condition — there are no sessions to operate on — but they expose it via different kinddiscriminants. Automation that checkskind == "no_managed_sessions"to detect a cold workspace will miss the--resumepath'ssession_load_failed, and vice versa. A wrapper that guards "run with --resume only if a session exists" must special-case both codes. The hint text is identical between them, suggesting the messages are logically equivalent. Additionally neither code matches the proposed canonical names session_not_found/session_load_failedas stableErrorKinddiscriminants described in ROADMAP #77's fix shape, which explicitly proposes typed error-kind codes for session lifecycle failures. **Required fix shape:** (a) unify "no sessions found for this workspace fingerprint" under a single canonicalkindcode — eitherno_managed_sessionsorsession_not_found— used consistently by every command path that encounters an empty session registry; (b) ifsession_load_failedis a more general category (covering e.g. corrupt session files, IO errors, schema version mismatches), it should nest a concretereason:"no_managed_sessions"orreason:"session_not_found"sub-field so callers can distinguish "empty registry" from "found but unreadable"; (c) align with the canonical error-kind contract proposed in #77; (d) add regression coverage provingexportand--resume latestin an empty workspace both return an error with the same top-levelkindcode. **Why this matters:** session guard-rails in orchestration need a single stablekindto detect cold workspaces without enumerating all possible no-session synonyms. Two divergent codes for the same condition make defensive automation brittle and contradict the promise of machine-readable error envelopes.

Three of five files have loaded:false with no accompanying not_found:true, parse_error, io_error, or skip_reason; automation must stat each path separately to guess why. Also loaded_files:2 and merged_keys:2 are bare counts — ambiguous whether merged_keys:2 means 2 total top-level JSON keys across all files or 2 unique merged settings. Required fix shape: (a) add not_found: bool and optional load_error: string to each files[] entry so callers can distinguish missing, parse-broken, and policy-skipped files without filesystem probing; (b) document or rename merged_keys as merged_setting_count or total_merged_keys to remove the int-semantics ambiguity; (c) optionally add merged_keys_by_file: [{path, keys}] for attribution; (d) add regression coverage proving files[] entries with loaded:false carry at minimum not_found distinguishing non-existent paths from load failures.

Title: status --output-format json workspace.changed_files is ambiguous — on a workspace with 5 untracked files, changed_files:5, staged_files:0, unstaged_files:0, untracked_files:5; it is unclear whether changed_files is the sum of all four git-status categories or only a subset; automation cannot tell if changed_files:5 means "5 tracked modified" or "5 total non-clean files including untracked" — dogfooded 2026-04-30 by Jobdori on e939777f. Running ./claw --output-format json status returns {"workspace":{"changed_files":5,"staged_files":0,"unstaged_files":0,"untracked_files":5,...}} — changed_files==untracked_files==5 with staged and unstaged both zero. The field name changed_files implies "modified tracked files" but the value equals the untracked count, not staged+unstaged. Without a comment or documented definition, automation must probe whether changed_files = staged + unstaged (excludes untracked) or changed_files = staged + unstaged + untracked + conflicted (total dirty). Also git_state:"dirty · 5 files · 5 untracked" repeats the same data as a prose string alongside the structured integer fields — redundant human-readable string alongside machine-readable integers. Required fix shape: (a) document and stabilize changed_files as either tracked_dirty_count (staged+unstaged only) or total_non-clean_count (staged+unstaged+untracked+conflicted) and rename to remove the ambiguity; (b) ensure a machine consumer can compute is_clean as a single boolean field without interpreting git_state prose; (c) deprecate or remove git_state prose string now that all its constituent counts are available as integers; (d) add regression coverage proving changed_files semantics against a workspace with staged, unstaged, untracked, and conflicted files.

CC2-RM-A0505-init-output-format-json-emits-redundant

Title: init --output-format json emits redundant parallel artifact schemas — artifacts[].status and flat created[]/skipped[]/updated[] arrays carry identical state, and artifacts[].status:"skipped" omits skip_reason — dogfooded 2026-04-30 by Jobdori on e939777f. Running claw init --output-format json on a fresh directory returns a JSON object with two parallel representations of the same artifact set: (1) artifacts: [{name, status}] — a structured per-artifact array; and (2) created: [...], skipped: [...], updated: [...] — flat string arrays partitioned by status. Both encode the same four artifact names and their outcomes with no additional information between them. On a subsequent run in an already-initialized directory, every artifact has status:"skipped", but no reason field is present on any artifact entry — automation cannot distinguish "already_exists" (safe to ignore) from "permission_denied", "dry_run", or "conflicting_contents" (each requiring a different response). The message field also embeds "skipped (already exists)" prose that is absent from the structured payload. Required fix shape: (a) pick one canonical artifact representation — either artifacts[{name, status, reason?, path?}] or the flat status arrays — and deprecate the other; (b) add a skip_reason or reason field to artifacts[] entries with status:"skipped" and status:"error", using an enum such as already_exists, permission_denied, dry_run, conflict, unknown; (c) add optional path (absolute) to each artifact entry so automation can act on the real on-disk location without re-joining with project_path; (d) add regression coverage proving init --output-format json on an existing directory includes machine-classifiable skip reasons for every skipped artifact and does not rely on the prose message field for structured state. Why this matters: init is the bootstrapping surface automation uses to ensure a project is claw-ready. If skip classification requires parsing human prose and the structured payload has two redundant formats, claws either over-provision re-inits or cannot distinguish safe skips from blocked writes without brittle message scraping.

Title: agents list, skills list, and mcp list use three different count-field names and divergent envelope schemas despite being sibling list commands — dogfooded 2026-04-30 by Jobdori on e939777f. Running all three list commands with --output-format json reveals incompatible envelope shapes: agents list emits count:int at the top level plus summary:{active,shadowed,total} and working_directory; skills list emits no top-level count, only summary:{active,shadowed,total}, and omits working_directory; mcp list uses a different count-field name configured_servers:int, has no count, no summary, and instead adds status:"ok" and config_load_error:null fields absent from the other two. The three sibling commands cannot be polymorphically consumed with the same count-extraction logic, requiring per-command special-casing at the cardinality check level. Required fix shape: (a) define one canonical top-level count field name (count, total, or item_count) and use it across agents, skills, and mcp list envelopes; (b) define one canonical summary object shape with at minimum active, total, and optionally shadowed and include it on all three; (c) expose working_directory consistently on all list commands or omit it from all; (d) add regression coverage proving the three list envelopes share the same count-field name and summary shape before each release. Why this matters: orchestration lanes that inventory agents, skills, and servers before delegation need one count-extraction pattern. Three different field names force per-command special-casing of the most basic cardinality check. Source: Jobdori live dogfood, e939777f, 2026-04-30.

Title: plugins enable/disable --output-format json always emits reload_runtime:true regardless of whether state actually changed, and omits previous_status, changed, version, and source fields — automation cannot tell if a reload is necessary or if the mutation was a no-op — dogfooded 2026-04-30 by Jobdori on e939777f. Running claw plugins enable example-bundled --output-format json on an already-enabled plugin returns {"action":"enable","kind":"plugin","message":"…","reload_runtime":true,"target":"example-bundled"} — reload_runtime:true every time, even on a no-op re-enable. The same applies to idempotent disable. Structured fields present: action, kind, message, reload_runtime, target. Structured fields absent: previous_status, status, changed, version, source. The actual plugin name, version, and new status are embedded only in the prose message field ("Result enabled example-bundled@bundled\n Name example-bundled\n Version 0.1.0\n Status enabled"), requiring callers to scrape column-aligned text to extract the post-mutation state. A no-op mutation emitting reload_runtime:true forces orchestration to trigger an expensive runtime reload even when no config change occurred. Required fix shape: (a) add changed:bool so callers can skip runtime reload when changed:false; (b) add previous_status and status fields (enums: enabled/disabled) so pre/post state is machine-readable without parsing message; (c) add version and source fields at the mutation response level, consistent with plugins list entry shape; (d) emit reload_runtime:false when changed:false; (e) add regression coverage proving idempotent enable/disable sets changed:false and reload_runtime:false. Why this matters: plugin lifecycle is a hot path for automation that conditionally enables plugins before running sessions. If every enable emits reload_runtime:true and no changed field exists, orchestration must reload unconditionally or maintain external state — both brittle patterns.

The envelope has only two keys: kind and phases. The phases array contains 12 raw Rust enum variant name strings — opaque identifiers with no description, no label, no steps[], no estimated_ms, no dependencies[], no optional:bool, and no status (enabled/disabled/skipped). Automation that calls bootstrap-plan to understand startup costs or profile initialization paths receives 12 name strings that reveal nothing about what each phase does, how long it takes, whether it depends on credentials/network/MCP, or which ones can be skipped. Required fix shape: (a) replace phases: string[] with phases: [{id, label, description, optional, estimated_ms?, dependencies?, status?}]; (b) add a top-level total_phases count; (c) mark network/credential-dependent phases with a requires_auth:bool or deps:["network","credentials","mcp"] field so automation can plan for unavailability; (d) add regression coverage proving each phase entry has at least id, label, and description fields and that the count matches the phases array length. Why this matters: bootstrap-plan is the startup-cost introspection surface. If its JSON output is 12 opaque variant name strings, automation cannot profile startup, identify slow phases, skip optional phases, or present meaningful startup diagnostics — the entire command serves only as a list of internal identifiers.

Running claw acp --output-format json returns a ten-key envelope: aliases, discoverability_tracking, kind, launch_command, message, recommended_workflows, serve_alias_only, status, supported, tracking. Two fields are verbatim internal backlog cross-references: "discoverability_tracking":"ROADMAP #64a" and "tracking":"ROADMAP #76". These were presumably used during initial scaffolding to track which backlog items the stub relates to, but they are now part of the public JSON contract that automation consumes. The message field also contains implementation-note prose ("ACP/Zed editor integration is not implemented in claw-code yet. \claw acp serve`...") that describes the build state rather than the command's machine-readable status. **Required fix shape:** (a) remove discoverability_trackingandtrackingfrom the public JSON envelope or move them to an optional_debugor_metasub-object gated on a debug flag; (b) replacemessageprose with a structuredreason enum ("not_implemented", "discoverability_only", "serve_only") plus optional detailstring; (c) renamesupported:false+status:"discoverability_only"to a single typedavailabilityobject withstatus, reason, and target_commandfields; (d) add regression coverage proving the publicacp --output-format jsonenvelope contains no internal tracking/backlog fields and thatmessageis not the sole machine-classifiable signal. **Why this matters:** public JSON APIs should not leak internal ticket references.

Running claw config env --output-format json, claw config model --output-format json, or claw config hooks --output-format json all return an identical five-key envelope: {"cwd":"...","files":[...],"kind":"config","loaded_files":2,"merged_keys":1}. The merged_keys field is an integer count of how many keys were merged across the loaded files, not an object or array of the actual key names and resolved values. The files array shows which config files were loaded/missing but contains no per-file key-value content. The merged section content — the actual resolved env, model, or hooks configuration — is entirely absent from the JSON output. It only appears in the prose output as a "Merged section: env / " block. Required fix shape: (a) add a merged or resolved object/array field to the JSON envelope containing the actual key-value pairs that resulted from merging the loaded config files for the requested section; (b) rename merged_keys from an integer count to either remove it (derivable from len(merged)) or keep it as a companion count field; (c) for each entry in merged, include key, value, and optionally source_file so automation can attribute which file contributed the value; (d) add regression coverage proving config env --output-format json with a non-empty env section populates merged (or equivalent) with the actual resolved key-value pairs. Why this matters: the entire purpose of config env/model/hooks --output-format json is to allow automation to read the resolved runtime configuration without screen-scraping prose. Returning only a count defeats the purpose and forces callers to either re-parse the prose output or re-read and merge the source config files themselves.

Running claw plugins list --output-format json returns {"action":"list","kind":"plugin","message":"Plugins\n example-bundled v0.1.0 disabled\n sample-hooks v0.1.0 disabled","reload_runtime":false,"target":null}. This is the same four-key response envelope used by plugins enable and plugins disable mutation commands, not a list envelope. The message field contains the full rendered prose table (plugin name, version, and status as whitespace-aligned columns), but no plugins array with structured per-entry objects. target is null because no specific plugin was targeted. The reload_runtime:false field is meaningless for a read-only list operation. This is distinct from ROADMAP #411 which covers the mutation commands' own missing changed/previous_status/version/source fields — #416 targets the list command's structural mismatch: it uses the mutation envelope entirely instead of emitting a dedicated list schema. Required fix shape: (a) emit a distinct {kind:"plugin_list", plugins:[{name, version, status, source, path?, description?}], count} envelope for the list action; (b) omit action, reload_runtime, and target from list responses (mutation-only fields); (c) the message field should be absent or optional and must not be the sole machine-readable inventory surface; (d) add regression coverage proving plugins list --output-format json populates a plugins array with at least name, version, and status fields for each installed plugin. Why this matters: automation that calls plugins list --output-format json to discover installed plugin inventory receives only a whitespace-aligned prose table in a string field, with reload_runtime:false and target:null as the only other machine-readable signals — identical noise to what a failed enable command returns.

The sections array has 9 elements; element index 4 is the raw string "__SYSTEM_PROMPT_DYNAMIC_BOUNDARY__". This internal sentinel marks the boundary between the static and dynamic sections of the compiled system prompt, used during assembly to split the prompt at injection time. It appears in the public JSON output verbatim as a first-class section, indistinguishable from real sections by type alone. Automation that iterates sections[] must special-case this sentinel or it will process an internal implementation string as if it were a real system prompt section. Required fix shape: (a) strip "__SYSTEM_PROMPT_DYNAMIC_BOUNDARY__" and any similar internal delimiters from the sections array before serializing to JSON; (b) if the static/dynamic boundary is semantically meaningful for callers, expose it as a structured metadata field such as boundary_index:4 or as a section_type:"static"|"dynamic" field on each section entry, not as a raw sentinel string in the array; (c) rename the sections type from string[] to [{id, type, content}] to enable this without breaking the boundary signal; (d) add regression coverage proving the system-prompt --output-format json output's sections array contains no elements whose value equals "__SYSTEM_PROMPT_DYNAMIC_BOUNDARY__" or matches /__[A-Z_]+__/. Why this matters: internal sentinel strings in public JSON are a contract liability — they couple the wire format to internal implementation details. Any refactor that renames or removes the sentinel breaks callers that don't special-case it, and automation that doesn't know to filter it will miscount, misparse, or misrender the system prompt.

Exit code is 0. The action field is "help" — not "error" — even though the caller issued a recognized token (add/remove) that maps to a real but unimplemented feature. The unexpected field correctly identifies the unrecognized arg, but automation that checks exit == 0 or action != "error" will treat this as a successful invocation. This is distinct from ROADMAP #108 which covers unrecognized CLI subcommands falling through to the LLM prompt path — #419 targets MCP-specific known-but-unimplemented subcommands that return action:"help" with exit 0 instead of an explicit action:"error" envelope. Required fix shape: (a) return a non-zero exit code (exit 1 or exit 2) when an unrecognized or unimplemented MCP subcommand is provided; (b) emit action:"error" (or kind:"error") with a code:"unknown_subcommand" and unknown:"add" field instead of action:"help"; (c) optionally include the help/usage payload as a sibling field suggestion:{usage:{...}} for context; (d) add regression coverage proving mcp <unknown> --output-format json returns a non-zero exit code and a non-help action token. Why this matters: add and remove are common MCP lifecycle operations that users will attempt; returning action:"help" with exit 0 makes these look like successful no-ops to any automation that doesn't deep-inspect the unexpected field.

Running claw plugins help --output-format json returns {"action":"help","kind":"plugin","message":"Unknown /plugins action 'help'. Use list, install, enable, disable, uninstall, or update.","reload_runtime":false,"target":null}. By contrast, claw mcp help --output-format json, claw agents help --output-format json, and claw skills help --output-format json all return a help envelope: {"action":"help","kind":"<surface>","unexpected":null,"usage":{"direct_cli":"...","slash_command":"...","sources":[...]}}. The plugins subgroup has not adopted the help envelope schema used by all sibling subgroups. Instead it uses the mutation response shape (message, reload_runtime, target) with an error string in message that calls help an "unknown action." Automation that checks usage.direct_cli to discover plugin commands gets a TypeError (key not found) on the plugins help path while succeeding on all sibling subgroups. Required fix shape: (a) make plugins help return the same help envelope as mcp help/agents help/skills help: {action:"help", kind:"plugin", unexpected:null, usage:{direct_cli:"claw plugins [list|enable|disable|install|uninstall|update|help]", slash_command:"/plugins [...]", sources:[...]}; (b) drop reload_runtime and target from help responses for all plugin subcommands; (c) add regression coverage proving plugins help --output-format json contains a usage.direct_cli field matching the same envelope shape as mcp help/agents help/skills help; (d) audit all subgroup help handlers for the same mutation-envelope contamination. Why this matters: help discovery is the bootstrap surface for automation. If plugins help --output-format json returns a mutation envelope with an error message instead of a usage envelope, automated schema discovery fails silently for the entire plugins subgroup while working for every other subgroup.

CC2-RM-A0515-status-mcp-list-doctor-json-output-leak

Title: status, mcp list, doctor JSON output leak macOS /private symlink-canonicalized cwd instead of user-invocation cwd — automation that string-matches on cwd breaks across symlinked filesystems — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on b98b9a71 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503207549447573574. Reproduction on macOS: invoke from /tmp/claw-dog-cwd (where /tmp symlinks to /private/tmp), then claw status --output-format json returns workspace.cwd: "/private/tmp/claw-dog-cwd", claw mcp list --output-format json returns working_directory: "/private/tmp/claw-dog-cwd". The user's invocation cwd ($PWD, pwd) is /tmp/claw-dog-cwd. Source: session_control.rs:34 calls fs::canonicalize(cwd) for #151 cross-worktree session-bleed prevention, then leaks the canonicalized path through every JSON envelope that reports cwd. Required fix shape: (a) keep canonicalized cwd for session keying internally, but report user-input cwd (the value passed by env::current_dir() or --cwd flag) in JSON output as cwd; (b) optionally expose canonical path as a separate field cwd_canonical for diagnostic purposes; (c) audit every --output-format json surface that emits cwd / working_directory / workspace.cwd for the same leak (status, mcp list, doctor, session list, init, etc.); (d) add regression coverage proving JSON cwd matches $PWD on macOS where /tmp -> /private/tmp symlink exists. Why this matters: automation pipelines that route work to lanes by cwd, or that compare cwd against a registry, break across macOS hosts because the canonicalized form differs from the form the user/orchestrator passed. The leak is silent — no documentation indicates the path will be rewritten. Source: Jobdori live dogfood, b98b9a71, 2026-05-11.

CC2-RM-A0516-unknown-top-level-subcommands-fall-throu

Title: Unknown top-level subcommands fall through to chat prompt path instead of returning unknown_subcommand error — typos silently send the subcommand string as a chat message to the configured LLM — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on b98b9a71 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503215095088676956. Reproduction: unset ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN; export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=fake-key-for-routing-test; claw completely-bogus-subcommand --output-format json returns {"error":"api returned 401 Unauthorized (authentication_error) [trace req_011...]: invalid x-api-key","kind":"api_http_error"} — proving the unknown token reached the Anthropic API endpoint as a chat prompt. With valid credentials, the bogus subcommand string would be silently consumed as a chat message, billing the user for a typo and producing whatever continuation the LLM generates. Pre-error path: claw <unknown> --output-format json with no creds returns kind:"missing_credentials" (the auth gate fires first), masking the routing bug. Only with creds present does the fallthrough manifest as the actual prompt being sent. Sibling exit-code bug: when the chat-path 401 returns, the JSON envelope is kind:"api_http_error" but exit code is 0, while cli_parse errors (e.g. --no-such-flag) and missing_credentials errors correctly exit 1. Exit-code parity between error envelopes is broken — automation that gates on $? will treat the 401-as-chat as success. Required fix shape: (a) reserve unknown top-level tokens that match no registered subcommand and emit kind:"unknown_subcommand" with unknown:<token> field and exit code 1, BEFORE the chat fallback path; (b) when a token is intended as a chat prompt, require an explicit verb (prompt, chat, ask) or --prompt flag; (c) ensure exit codes are non-zero for all kind:*_error envelopes; (d) regression test: claw <bogus> --output-format json with valid auth returns kind:"unknown_subcommand" exit 1, never reaches the API. Why this matters: automation that calls claw <subcommand> with a programmatically constructed verb (typo, version drift, refactored command) silently bills tokens and produces hallucinated output instead of a typed error. Cross-cluster with #108 (CLI fallthrough discovered earlier) — #422 is the post-#108 audit confirming the routing bug still bites with valid credentials.

CC2-RM-A0517-claw-prompt-does-not-read-prompt-text-fr

Title: claw prompt does not read prompt text from stdin when no positional prompt arg is provided — echo "what is 2+2" | claw prompt --output-format json returns kind:"unknown" error:"prompt subcommand requires a prompt string" instead of consuming stdin — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 3c563fa1 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503222644739276951. Reproduction: echo "what is 2+2" | claw prompt --output-format json → {"error":"prompt subcommand requires a prompt string","hint":null,"kind":"unknown","type":"error"} exit 1. Same for claw prompt --output-format json with stdin redirected from a file. The most common Unix automation pattern (cmd | claw prompt) is broken because the prompt subcommand only reads the positional argument, never falls through to stdin. Sibling envelope-kind bug: the error kind is "unknown" instead of a typed "missing_argument" or "validation_error". The unknown discriminator is the catch-all bucket — automation that switches on kind to differentiate input-validation errors from runtime errors gets no signal here. Required fix shape: (a) when prompt subcommand has no positional prompt arg AND stdin is not a TTY (i.e., piped or redirected), read stdin to EOF and use that as the prompt; (b) emit kind:"missing_argument" (not "unknown") when both positional arg and stdin are absent; (c) add --prompt-stdin or --stdin opt-in flag for explicit control; (d) regression tests: echo X | claw prompt --output-format json reaches the runtime with prompt=X, AND claw prompt < /dev/null returns kind:"missing_argument" exit 1. Why this matters: Unix pipelines are the foundation of CLI automation. Every other major CLI (curl, jq, gh, kubectl) accepts stdin as the primary input when no positional arg is given. Breaking this convention forces automation to either inline the prompt as a shell-quoted string (escaping nightmare for multiline/code) or write to a temp file first. The kind:"unknown" error category compounds the problem by making the failure indistinguishable from a runtime crash. Source: Jobdori live dogfood, 3c563fa1, 2026-05-11.

CC2-RM-A0518-model-rejects-bare-canonical-anthropic-m

Title: --model rejects bare canonical Anthropic model names (claude-opus-4-7, claude-opus-4-6, claude-sonnet-4-6) as invalid_model_syntax — only short aliases (opus, sonnet, haiku) and full prefixed form (anthropic/claude-opus-4-7) work; sibling: error message stale-suggests claude-opus-4-6 not 4-7 — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 6c0c305a in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503230194889134103. Reproduction: claw --model claude-opus-4-7 status --output-format json → {"error":"invalid model syntax: 'claude-opus-4-7'. Expected provider/model (e.g., anthropic/claude-opus-4-6) or known alias (opus, sonnet, haiku)","kind":"invalid_model_syntax"}. Same for claude-opus-4-6, claude-sonnet-4-6. Forcing --model anthropic/claude-opus-4-7 works (model:"anthropic/claude-opus-4-7", model_source:"flag"). Three problems compounded: (a) Anthropic-canonical model names without provider prefix are rejected even though the claude- prefix unambiguously identifies the provider; (b) the error suggests anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 as the example — 4-7 shipped 2026-04-16 and is the current production Anthropic frontier model, the suggestion is one model behind; (c) the alias list opus, sonnet, haiku doesn't disambiguate version (which opus does the alias resolve to — opus-4-6 or opus-4-7?). Required fix shape: (a) accept bare claude-* and gpt-* model names as canonical-named-without-prefix and route via name-prefix detection (already implemented for prefix-routed mode); (b) update the example in invalid_model_syntax error to current frontier (anthropic/claude-opus-4-7); (c) document or expose opus → exact-version mapping in the error message and in claw doctor/status output (model_alias_resolved_to: "claude-opus-4-7"); (d) regression test: claw --model claude-opus-4-7 status --output-format json returns model_source:"flag", not kind:"invalid_model_syntax". Sibling bug observed in same probe: enabledPlugins deprecation warning repeats 3 times in stderr for the same ~/.claw/settings.json load — config file is being loaded/parsed 3 times during a single status invocation. Why this matters: every Anthropic doc, every CCAPI route, every internal tooling references models by their bare canonical name (claude-opus-4-7). Forcing the anthropic/ prefix breaks copy-paste from Anthropic's own examples and adds a redundant token to every invocation. The stale 4-6 suggestion in the error message actively misdirects users away from the current model. Source: Jobdori live dogfood, 6c0c305a, 2026-05-11.

CC2-RM-A0519-config-file-precedence-claw-settings-jso

Title: Config file precedence (.claw/settings.json always wins over .claw.json) is undocumented in user-facing surfaces — config --output-format json reports both files as loaded:true with no precedence_rank or wins_for_keys attribution; sibling: deprecation warning fires 4× per status invocation (was 3× in #424, regression upward) — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on d7dbe951 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503237744451649537. Reproduction: create .claw.json with {"model":"anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6"} and .claw/settings.json with {"model":"anthropic/claude-opus-4-7"} in the same workspace. claw status --output-format json returns model:"anthropic/claude-opus-4-7", model_source:"config". Reverse the files (.claw.json=opus, settings.json=sonnet) → model:"anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6". Confirmed: .claw/settings.json always wins over .claw.json for conflicting keys, regardless of file mtime or alphabetical order. claw config --output-format json reports both as loaded:true with no precedence_rank, effective_for_keys, or shadowed_keys attribution. The only signal of precedence is the final merged value in status — automation cannot programmatically discover which file contributed which key without re-implementing the merge logic. Sibling bug (regression from #424): the enabledPlugins deprecation warning now fires 4 times in stderr per single status invocation (was 3× in #424's probe at HEAD 6c0c305a; current HEAD d7dbe951 shows 4×). Config load count went up by 1. Sibling bug observed in config-section probe: claw config model --output-format json with a .claw.json that contains a benign unknown key (e.g., "alpha":"x") returns {"error":"/path/.claw.json: unknown key \"alpha\" (line 1)","kind":"unknown"} — the entire config command fails with a generic unknown kind instead of (a) tolerating unrecognized keys with a warning, or (b) emitting a typed kind:"unknown_key" error scoped to the offending file/key. Required fix shape: (a) document precedence order in USAGE.md (.claw/settings.local.json > .claw/settings.json > .claw.json for project scope; user/system scope at each layer); (b) add precedence_rank:int and optional wins_for_keys:[string] / shadowed_keys:[string] to each entry in config --output-format json files[]; (c) dedupe the deprecation warning to fire once per discovered file instead of N× per load pass; (d) make config <section> --output-format json tolerate unknown keys with warnings, OR emit kind:"unknown_key" with path: and key: fields scoped to the offending file. Why this matters: users mixing legacy .claw.json with new .claw/settings.json have no way to verify which file is actually controlling their runtime. The undocumented precedence + missing per-key attribution forces trial-and-error to debug config drift.

CC2-RM-A0520-anthropic-model-env-var-bypasses-the-inv

Title: ANTHROPIC_MODEL env var bypasses the invalid_model_syntax validator that --model enforces — bogus model strings are accepted with status:"ok", deferred-failing only when the first API call is made — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 3730b459 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503245298800136296. Reproduction (asymmetric validation): claw --model bogus-model-xyz status --output-format json returns kind:"invalid_model_syntax" exit 1; ANTHROPIC_MODEL=bogus-model-xyz claw status --output-format json returns model:"bogus-model-xyz", model_raw:"bogus-model-xyz", model_source:"env", status:"ok" — the doctor surface lies that the configured model is valid when it is not. The bogus model only manifests as a failure when the first prompt fires and the API rejects it with 404/400. Three sibling discoveries in the same probe: (a) alias indirection invisible: ANTHROPIC_MODEL=opus claw status --output-format json returns model:"claude-opus-4-6", model_raw:"opus", model_source:"env" — the opus alias resolves to claude-opus-4-6 (the previous frontier, not the current claude-opus-4-7 released 2026-04-16). Users typing opus get yesterday's model with no warning. (b) CLAW_MODEL env var silently ignored: CLAW_MODEL=opus claw status shows model:"claude-opus-4-6" model_source:"default" — the CLAW_MODEL env var (the project-namespaced equivalent that users expect) does not exist; only ANTHROPIC_MODEL is honored. No warning when a CLAW_* env var that looks like it should work is set. (c) ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_MODEL also silently ignored: the longer-named env var that some Anthropic SDKs use is not recognized. Required fix shape: (a) symmetric validation: ANTHROPIC_MODEL env value must pass the same invalid_model_syntax check that --model does, and claw status must return kind:"invalid_model" / status:"warn" (not status:"ok") when the resolved model is unrecognized; (b) expose alias resolution in status: add model_alias_resolved_to:string|null field so automation can see opus → claude-opus-4-6; (c) bump the opus alias to claude-opus-4-7 (current frontier) or document the alias-to-version mapping policy explicitly; (d) accept CLAW_MODEL and ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_MODEL env vars with parity to ANTHROPIC_MODEL, OR emit a warning when those env vars are set but unrecognized. Why this matters: the most common automation pattern is export ANTHROPIC_MODEL=... in a shell rc file. Bogus values pass silently, alias indirection hides the actual model in use, and CLAW_MODEL looking like a working name but doing nothing is a footgun. Cross-references #424 (bare canonical names rejected at validator level) — together #424 + #426 make model selection inconsistent across CLI flag, env var, and alias paths.

CC2-RM-A0521-subcommand-help-paths-resume-session-com

Title: Subcommand --help paths (resume, session, compact) hit the auth gate and trigger config validation before returning static help — claw resume --help with no credentials returns missing_credentials error instead of help text — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 1fecdf09 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503252843669491892. Reproduction (no env vars, isolated CLAW_CONFIG_HOME): claw resume --help returns {"error":"missing Anthropic credentials; export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY..."} instead of usage text. Same for claw session --help, claw compact --help. By contrast, claw prompt --help and claw --help (top-level) return proper usage text without auth. Even worse: with a broken .claw.json discovered up the parent directory tree (e.g., mcpServers.missing-command: missing string field command), the subcommand --help paths fail with [error-kind: unknown] from config validation — config load is happening before --help is parsed. Sibling exit-code bug: claw resume --help --output-format json returns kind:"missing_credentials" but exits 0 (the exit-code parity bug from #422 reproduces on this path too — only cli_parse exits 1 consistently). Sibling: claw resume <bogus-id> should be local-only but also hits missing_credentials — resume of a session that doesn't exist on disk should return kind:"session_not_found" from a local lookup, not require API credentials. Same class as ROADMAP #357 (session list requires creds) and #369 (session help/fork require credentials) — now confirmed for resume. Required fix shape: (a) --help MUST short-circuit before any auth check, config load, or session resolution — emit static usage text from a compiled-in string table, no I/O; (b) resume <id> must check the local session store first; if the id is absent on disk, emit kind:"session_not_found" with sessions_dir field; only require auth when resuming a known-on-disk session that requires re-establishing API context; (c) ensure exit code 1 for all error envelopes including missing_credentials returned from a --help path that should never have reached the auth gate; (d) regression test: with empty CLAW_CONFIG_HOME and no env vars, every claw <subcommand> --help returns usage text on stdout, exit 0, no kind:*_error envelope. Why this matters: --help is the universal CLI discovery primitive. Failing --help because of missing API credentials or broken config files makes claw undiscoverable to users debugging an already-broken setup.

CC2-RM-A0522-default-permission-mode-is-danger-full-a

Title: Default permission_mode is danger-full-access — claw runs with FULL filesystem + network + tool access out of the box, with no opt-in flag and no warning from doctor — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 72048449 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503260393622212628. Reproduction (no env vars, isolated CLAW_CONFIG_HOME, no config files, no CLI flags): claw status --output-format json returns permission_mode:"danger-full-access" as the default. The three supported modes per the validator error message are read-only, workspace-write, danger-full-access — and danger-full-access is chosen with zero user opt-in. claw doctor --output-format json produces a sandbox check with status:"warn", summary:"sandbox was requested but is not currently active" (because macOS lacks Linux unshare), but emits no warning, info, or summary about the permission_mode itself being danger-full-access. There is no permissions check in doctor output at all. Required fix shape: (a) change default permission_mode to workspace-write (safe-by-default: filesystem write limited to cwd, network limited to LLM endpoints, no arbitrary command exec); (b) require explicit --permission-mode danger-full-access or --dangerously-skip-permissions to opt into full access; (c) add a permissions check to doctor --output-format json that emits status:"warn" when permission_mode == "danger-full-access" without explicit source (flag/env/config), with details like mode:"danger-full-access", source:"default", message:"running with full access without explicit opt-in"; (d) document the three modes and the default in USAGE.md with one-paragraph descriptions of what each mode allows. Sibling typed-error bug: claw --permission-mode bogus-mode status --output-format json returns kind:"unknown" instead of kind:"invalid_permission_mode" — same catch-all problem as #424, #426. Sibling flag-name asymmetry: --dangerously-skip-permissions works but --skip-permissions (Claude Code's flag) returns kind:"cli_parse" unknown option. Users migrating from Claude Code lose the short flag name. Why this matters: every other security-conscious CLI (Docker, kubectl, terraform) requires explicit opt-in for dangerous modes. Defaulting to danger-full-access is a footgun for first-time users who pipe curl install.sh | sh and immediately get a tool with full filesystem write and arbitrary command exec. The doctor surface is the only diagnostic users consult before trusting the tool, and it stays silent about the most permissive setting. Cross-references #50, #87, #91, #94, #97, #101, #106, #115, #123 (permission-audit sweep) — those all cover permission rule and list surfaces; #428 covers the mode default itself.

Title: No global --cwd/-C/--directory flag — claw cannot be invoked against an arbitrary working directory without first cd-ing into it; --cwd only exists as a subcommand option for system-prompt, and the cli_parse "Did you mean --acp?" suggestion is misleading (the --acp flag is unrelated to directory selection) — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on ec882f4c in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503267943285264394. Reproduction: claw --cwd /tmp/claw-dog-cwd status --output-format json → {"error":"unknown option: --cwd","hint":"Did you mean --acp?\nRun claw --help for usage.","kind":"cli_parse"}. Same error for --cwd <relative>, --cwd <nonexistent>, --cwd <file-not-dir>, --cwd "". Inspecting claw --help: --cwd PATH appears ONLY in the usage line claw system-prompt [--cwd PATH] [--date YYYY-MM-DD] — it is not a global flag and is not accepted by status, doctor, mcp list, init, or any other subcommand. Users programmatically running claw against multiple workspaces must cd into each one before invoking, breaking the subprocess.run(['claw', 'status', '--cwd', ws], cwd=other_dir) pattern that every other major CLI (cargo -C, git -C, npm --prefix, gh --repo semantically, kubectl --kubeconfig+--context) supports. Sibling misleading-suggestion bug: the cli_parse error's hint field suggests Did you mean --acp? for --cwd. --acp is the alias for ACP/Zed editor integration (entirely unrelated to working directory). The Levenshtein-distance auto-complete is matching on first-character similarity without considering semantic relatedness. Users following the hint get a totally orthogonal feature. Required fix shape: (a) add a global --cwd PATH / -C PATH flag accepted before any subcommand, parsed in the global flag pre-pass; (b) validate the path exists and is a directory; emit kind:"invalid_cwd" with path: and reason: ("not_found"/"not_a_directory"/"empty") when validation fails; (c) document the precedence: --cwd flag > $PWD > env::current_dir(); (d) fix the "Did you mean" hint algorithm to filter suggestions by semantic category (don't suggest --acp for --cwd; suggest claw system-prompt --cwd PATH if the user clearly wants cwd override but used the wrong scope); (e) regression test: claw --cwd /tmp status --output-format json from any $PWD returns workspace.cwd:"/private/tmp" (or cwd:"/tmp" after #421 fix). Why this matters: every claw automation orchestrator runs claw against multiple workspaces from a single parent process. Forcing cd before each invocation breaks parallelism (can't use shared cwd across concurrent invocations), breaks subprocess wrappers that want to pass cwd explicitly, and breaks xargs/parallel-style pipelines.

(b) **kind drift**:claw dump-manifests --manifests-dir /tmp/nonexistent --output-format jsonreturnskind:"unknown", while claw dump-manifests(no override) returnskind:"missing_manifests". Same root cause (no usable upstream), two different kinddiscriminators — automation cannot switch on a single error type. (c) **export-positional-arg silently dropped**: probed in the same run —claw export ignores the path and returnskind:"no_managed_sessions"regardless of what positional arg was passed. The--helpadvertises[PATH]as the output-file destination but the path is discarded before validation, indistinguishable from invocation with no args. **Required fix shape:** (a) makedump-manifestsemit the manifests claw-code itself ships with (Rust-resolver-discovered skills/agents/tools), independent of any upstream TS source — that matches the--helpdescription; (b) if upstream-comparison is genuinely needed for parity work, move it to a separate command likeparity dump-upstream-manifestsand remove the upstream dependency fromdump-manifests; (c) standardize on one error kind for the manifest-missing failure mode (missing_manifestsis more descriptive thanunknown); (d) claw export must validate the path positional arg before the session-discovery check, so users seekind:"invalid_output_path"(or similar) when the path is malformed instead of always seeingkind:"no_managed_sessions". **Why this matters:** dump-manifestsis the inventory surface a downstream automation lane would call to learn what claw can do in the current workspace. If it's broken without upstream TS source, downstream lanes can't introspect — they have to fall back toagents list/skills list/mcp listseparately and re-aggregate. Cross-references #422 (kind:unknown for unknown_subcommand), #423 (kind:unknown for missing_argument), #428 (kind:unknown for invalid_permission_mode) —kind:"unknown"keeps appearing as the catch-all for surfaces that should have typed kinds.

CC2-RM-A0525-skills-uninstall-name-requires-anthropic

Title: skills uninstall <name> requires Anthropic credentials despite being a local filesystem operation — claw skills uninstall nonexistent-skill-xyz --output-format json returns kind:"missing_credentials" instead of resolving locally that the skill doesn't exist — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 328fd114 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503275502046023690 (sibling probe to #430). Reproduction (no creds, isolated CLAW_CONFIG_HOME): claw skills uninstall nonexistent-skill-xyz --output-format json returns {"error":"missing Anthropic credentials; export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY...","kind":"missing_credentials"}. Uninstalling a skill is a pure local filesystem operation: read the skills directory, find the named skill, remove its files. There is no semantic reason to require API credentials. Same class of bug as #357 (session list requires creds), #369 (session help/fork require creds), and #427 (resume <bogus-id> requires creds). Three sibling findings in same probe: (a) claw skills install <bogus-name> returns {"error":"No such file or directory (os error 2)","kind":"unknown"} — leaks raw OS error string with no hint about expected install source format (path vs name vs URL?), and the catch-all kind:"unknown" again instead of typed kind:"skill_install_source_not_found". (b) claw skills install (no args) returns action:"help" with unexpected:"install" — but install IS a documented subcommand. The handler treats it as "unknown action" instead of "missing required argument". Should emit kind:"missing_argument" with argument:"install_source". (c) claw agents create my-agent returns action:"help" with unexpected:"create my-agent" — there is no agent-creation surface at all. Users must hand-craft .claw/agents/<name>.md files with no scaffolding command, while claw init only creates the top-level .claw/ skeleton. Required fix shape: (a) skills uninstall <name> must be local-first: enumerate the local skills dir, return kind:"skill_not_found" (with skills_dir: and available_names:[] fields) for missing, or remove the files and return kind:"skills" with action:"uninstall", removed:<name> for present skills; (b) skills install <source> must distinguish source forms (path:, name:, url:) and emit kind:"invalid_install_source" with the parsed-and-failed reason; (c) skills install (no args) emits kind:"missing_argument" with argument:"install_source"; (d) add claw agents create <name> (or claw init agent <name>) that scaffolds .claw/agents/<name>.md with a stub frontmatter; or document explicitly that agents are user-authored only. Why this matters: lifecycle commands (uninstall, install, create) are the primary surface for managing claw's extension surface area. If uninstall requires API creds, an offline user who fat-fingered an install can't undo it. If install returns a raw OS error, automation can't programmatically recover. If agents create doesn't exist, agent authoring is undocumented file-touching only.

CC2-RM-A0526-allowedtools-validator-inconsistency-too

Title: --allowedTools validator inconsistency: tool name list is half snake_case (bash, read_file, write_file, edit_file, glob_search, grep_search) and half PascalCase (WebFetch, WebSearch, TodoWrite, Skill, Agent, Sleep) with three UPPERCASE entries (REPL, LSP, MCP); accepts undocumented CamelCase aliases (Read, Write, Edit) and silently translates them to snake_case; argument parsing consumes the next positional when value is missing — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on fad53e2d in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503283046856655029. Reproduction: claw --allowedTools status --output-format json → {"error":"unsupported tool in --allowedTools: status (expected one of: bash, read_file, write_file, edit_file, glob_search, grep_search, WebFetch, WebSearch, TodoWrite, Skill, Agent, ToolSearch, NotebookEdit, Sleep, SendUserMessage, Config, EnterPlanMode, ExitPlanMode, StructuredOutput, REPL, PowerShell, AskUserQuestion, TaskCreate, RunTaskPacket, TaskGet, TaskList, TaskStop, TaskUpdate, TaskOutput, WorkerCreate, WorkerGet, WorkerObserve, WorkerResolveTrust, WorkerAwaitReady, WorkerSendPrompt, WorkerRestart, WorkerTerminate, WorkerObserveCompletion, TeamCreate, TeamDelete, CronCreate, CronDelete, CronList, LSP, ListMcpResources, ReadMcpResource, McpAuth, RemoteTrigger, MCP, TestingPermission)","kind":"unknown"}. The status subcommand was consumed as the --allowedTools value because the flag parser doesn't distinguish missing-value from end-of-flag-args. The error reveals the supported tool list mixes naming conventions inconsistently within a single error message: snake_case (bash, read_file, write_file, edit_file, glob_search, grep_search), PascalCase (WebFetch, WebSearch, TodoWrite, Skill, Agent, Sleep, Config, PowerShell, AskUserQuestion, TaskCreate, WorkerCreate, TeamCreate, CronCreate), UPPERCASE (REPL, LSP, MCP), and CamelCase compounds (McpAuth, RemoteTrigger). Hidden alias mapping: claw --allowedTools Read,Write,Edit status --output-format json is accepted and returns allowed_tools.entries:["edit_file","read_file","write_file"] — proving the validator has an undocumented CamelCase→snake_case alias map (Read→read_file, Write→write_file, Edit→edit_file) that is not surfaced in the error message. Users who copy-paste tool names from Claude Code documentation work, users who copy from the validator error don't. Sibling missing-value bug: claw --allowedTools status with status as a positional subcommand is interpreted as --allowedTools=status, swallowing the subcommand. The flag parser must require a value for --allowedTools and emit kind:"missing_argument" when followed by a recognized subcommand or ---prefixed flag instead of silently treating the next arg as a tool name. Sibling typed-kind bug: both errors use kind:"unknown" instead of typed kind:"invalid_tool_name" / kind:"missing_argument" — the catch-all keeps appearing (#422/#423/#424/#428/#430/#431/#432). Required fix shape: (a) standardize the canonical tool-name registry on one casing convention (snake_case is most CLI-ergonomic) and update both the registry and all CamelCase aliases; (b) document and expose the alias map (tool_aliases:{Read:"read_file",...}) in claw doctor/status and in the validator error; (c) flag parser must require a value for --allowedTools and refuse to consume a recognized subcommand or -/---prefixed token as the value, emit kind:"missing_argument" with argument:"--allowedTools"; (d) emit kind:"invalid_tool_name" with tool_name: and available:[] fields instead of kind:"unknown"; (e) regression test that claw --allowedTools <subcommand> rejects with missing_argument, and that the canonical name list in errors uses the same casing as the alias map. Why this matters: --allowedTools is the primary surface for restricting claw's tool surface area (security-relevant). Inconsistent naming between the validator error and the alias map means users following the error message guidance pick names that work in some places and fail in others. The missing-value bug silently swallows a subcommand, leading to confusing "unsupported tool: status" errors when the user actually wanted to run claw status.

CC2-RM-A0527-repeated-output-format-flag-silently-tak

Title: Repeated --output-format flag silently takes the last value without warning — claw --output-format json --output-format text status produces text output, no signal that the prior json was overridden; sibling: --output-format value is case-sensitive (JSON rejected as kind:"unknown"); sibling: no CLAW_OUTPUT_FORMAT env var for default format override — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on ce39d5c5 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503290592556220488. Reproduction: claw --output-format json --output-format text status returns the text-format Status\n Model claude-opus-4-6... table — the first --output-format json was silently overridden. No warning, no format_overridden:true field, no stderr message. Scripts that compose flag arrays from multiple sources (flags=("${BASE_FLAGS[@]}" --output-format json) while BASE_FLAGS already contains --output-format text) silently get the wrong format. Three sibling findings in same probe: (a) case-sensitivity drift: claw --output-format JSON status returns {"error":"unsupported value for --output-format: JSON (expected text or json)","kind":"unknown"} — error message tells user to use lowercase json but doesn't accept the uppercase form that users often type from muscle memory. Most CLI flag-value validators (cargo, kubectl, gh) are case-insensitive for enum values or accept both forms with normalization. (b) kind:"unknown" for invalid format value: same catch-all bucket bug as #422/#423/#424/#428/#430/#431/#432 — should be kind:"invalid_output_format" with value: and expected:["text","json"] fields. (c) no env-var default for output format: CLAW_OUTPUT_FORMAT=json claw status silently ignored — no env override for the global default, forcing scripts to repeat --output-format json on every invocation. Other major CLIs honor KUBECTL_OUTPUT=, AWS_DEFAULT_OUTPUT=, GH_NO_PROMPT= etc. (d) silently-ignored env vars CLAW_LOG/RUST_LOG: no env-based log level control surfaced in claw doctor — debug logging requires undocumented RUST_LOG= (Rust convention) but claw --help doesn't mention either. Required fix shape: (a) repeated --output-format (or any flag that takes a value, not a count flag) emits a warning to stderr (warning: --output-format specified multiple times; using last value 'text') and adds a format_source:"flag", format_overridden:[] field to the JSON envelope; (b) accept case-insensitive enum values for --output-format (JSON, Json, json all work), document the canonical lowercase form in --help; (c) emit kind:"invalid_output_format" (not kind:"unknown") when value is invalid; (d) accept CLAW_OUTPUT_FORMAT env var as the default for --output-format, with flag-overrides-env precedence documented; (e) document RUST_LOG / CLAW_LOG in --help or doctor output as the log-level env vars; (f) regression test: repeated flag emits stderr warning + JSON metadata field; case-insensitive enum accepts all three casings; env-var default is honored when flag is absent. Why this matters: scripts that compose flag arrays from multiple sources (CI envs + per-invocation flags) silently get the wrong output format. Case-sensitive enum values trip up users typing from muscle memory. Missing env-var defaults force per-invocation flag repetition.

CC2-RM-A0528-posix-end-of-flags-separator-is-not-reco

Title: POSIX -- end-of-flags separator is not recognized — claw -- "-prompt-with-dash" returns {"error":"unknown option: --","hint":"Did you mean -V?","kind":"cli_parse"} instead of treating subsequent args as positional; shorthand prompt mode cannot accept dash-prefixed prompts at all — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 0e5f6958 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503298142286905484. Reproduction: claw -- "-prompt-with-dash" --output-format json returns {"error":"unknown option: --","hint":"Did you mean -V?\nRun \claw --help` for usage.","kind":"cli_parse"}. The POSIX/GNU CLI convention — universally honored by cargo, git, npm, gh, kubectl, grep, ls, find, etc. — is that --terminates flag parsing and treats everything after it as positional arguments. claw rejects--itself as an unknown flag. **Sibling misleading-suggestion bug (recurring from #429):** thecli_parsehint suggestsDid you mean -V?for--. -Vis the version flag;--is the end-of-flags separator. They have no semantic relationship; the auto-complete is matching on prefix-character similarity only. **Sibling shorthand-prompt limitation:**claw "-just a prompt" --output-format jsonreturns{"error":"unknown option: -just a prompt","kind":"cli_parse"}andclaw "--bogus-flag-like" --output-format jsonreturns the same. The shorthand non-interactive prompt mode (documented asclaw [--model MODEL] [--output-format text|json] TEXT) cannot accept any TEXT that starts with -or--, even when the entire string is shell-quoted as a single token. Users must use the explicit prompt verb (claw prompt "-prompt-with-dash"works) to escape this, but the explicit verb is documented as alternative not required. **Required fix shape:** (a) accept POSIX--as the end-of-flags marker globally — every arg after--is positional; (b) shorthand prompt mode must distinguish "this looks like a flag" from "this is a quoted positional that happens to start with-" by looking at whether the token matches any registered flag name (-h, -V, --help, --version, etc.) — strings that don't match any flag should be treated as prompt text; (c) fix the "Did you mean" hint algorithm to filter by semantic category (don't suggest -Vfor--, suggest "use \--` to terminate flag parsing" if the user types just --); (d) regression test: claw -- "-foo" reaches the runtime with prompt=-foo; claw "-not-a-flag" is treated as shorthand prompt when no registered flag matches; canonical -- is recognized. Why this matters: POSIX -- is the universal mechanism for passing arbitrary text (filenames starting with -, prompts containing flag-like syntax, log lines, etc.) to a CLI. Failing on -- makes claw fundamentally unergonomic in shell pipelines (echo "-q for quiet" | xargs claw fails). The shorthand-prompt limitation forces users to remember the prompt verb specifically when their prompt happens to start with -.

CC2-RM-A0529-claw-resume-latest-on-a-fresh-workspace

Title: claw --resume latest on a fresh workspace exit code is 0 in text mode but 1 in JSON mode (text mode lies about success); sibling: failed --resume creates the .claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/ directory tree as a filesystem side effect of the failure — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on e29010ed in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503305692566655096. Reproduction (fresh empty dir, no .claw/, no sessions): claw --resume latest (text mode) prints failed to restore session: no managed sessions found in .claw/sessions/0ead448127a2de44/ and exits 0. Same invocation with --output-format json correctly exits 1 with kind:"session_load_failed". Exit-code parity broken on the same input depending on format flag. Sibling filesystem-side-effect bug: after the failed --resume latest on a fresh empty workspace, the directory .claw/sessions/0ead448127a2de44/ (the workspace-fingerprint partition) is created on disk despite the operation failing. The user did not opt into creating workspace metadata — they asked to resume an existing session, the resume failed, and now there's a partition directory hanging around. The fingerprint directory ought to be created lazily on first successful session save, not as a side effect of every resume attempt. Three sibling findings in the same probe: (a) claw --compact alone (no other args) drops into the interactive REPL with the ANSI welcome banner — --compact is documented as a modifier that strips tool call details in text mode for piping (--compact ... useful for piping), not as a verb that activates the REPL. Running claw --compact with no positional should be a no-op or an error explaining the flag needs a subcommand or prompt; entering the REPL is the wrong default. (b) claw --compact "hello" (shorthand prompt) returns {"error":"unknown subcommand: hello.","hint":"Did you mean help","kind":"unknown"} — --compact disables shorthand prompt mode entirely, treating the positional as a subcommand instead of as prompt text. Users must use the explicit prompt verb (claw --compact prompt "hello") which contradicts the claw [flags] TEXT usage line in --help. (c) kind:"unknown" again for the unknown-subcommand error in --compact path — same catch-all bucket bug appearing for the 11th time across pinpoints. Required fix shape: (a) exit code 1 for all failed_to_restore / session_load_failed text-mode failures; text mode should print to stderr and exit non-zero, not print to stdout and exit 0; (b) defer .claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/ creation to first successful save; failed --resume must not leave filesystem droppings; (c) claw --compact alone (no positional, no subcommand, stdin is TTY) should emit kind:"missing_argument" with argument:"prompt or subcommand" rather than activating the REPL; (d) --compact must be transparent to shorthand prompt mode parsing — claw --compact "hello" is equivalent to claw --compact prompt "hello", both should reach the prompt path; (e) emit typed kind:"unknown_subcommand" not kind:"unknown" for fallthrough cases. Why this matters: scripts that gate on $? after claw --resume latest see success on text mode and failure on JSON mode — the same operation, two outcomes. The filesystem side effect pollutes a user's worktree with workspace partitions they didn't ask for, and CI pipelines that snapshot .claw/ size silently grow on every failed --resume.

CC2-RM-A0530-claw-init-shipped-claw-json-template-exp

Title: claw init shipped .claw.json template explicitly sets permissions.defaultMode:"dontAsk" — every user who runs claw init gets a config file that disables permission prompts by default; sibling: init creates an empty .claw/ directory with no settings.json template inside, and when .claw/ already exists it skips the whole artifact (no settings template materialized) — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on b8f989b6 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503313241751949335. Reproduction: mkdir /tmp/probe && cd /tmp/probe && claw init --output-format json returns artifacts:[{name:".claw/",status:"created"},{name:".claw.json",status:"created"},...]. Inspecting the created .claw.json: {"permissions":{"defaultMode":"dontAsk"}}. This is the polar opposite of safe-by-default: every user who follows the documented onboarding flow (claw init after curl install.sh) ships their workspace with permission prompts disabled. Compounds with #428 (default runtime permission_mode is danger-full-access) — between the runtime default and the init template, a fresh claw setup has zero user-facing safety friction. Sibling: .claw/ artifact is an empty directory. After claw init, find .claw -type f returns nothing. No settings.json, no template, no scaffolding — just mkdir .claw. The --help description implies init produces a usable workspace, but .claw/settings.json (the project-scope counterpart of ~/.claw/settings.json) is never templated. Sibling: .claw/ skip-on-exists drops the entire artifact. If .claw/ already exists (e.g., from a partial setup, a --resume failure side effect per #435, or manual creation), claw init returns .claw/: skipped and does not materialize any expected sub-content. The other artifacts (.claw.json, .gitignore, CLAUDE.md) are still created, but a future claw skills install or claw plugins enable may expect .claw/ to contain template files that are now missing. Required fix shape: (a) the shipped .claw.json template must default to permissions.defaultMode:"acceptEdits" or "plan" (safe-by-default modes per #428 spec) — "dontAsk" requires explicit opt-in; (b) claw init must materialize .claw/settings.json with documented schema defaults inside .claw/ so the directory is useful on its own; (c) when .claw/ already exists, init must report partial status (not skipped) and still try to create missing sub-files like .claw/settings.json without overwriting existing files; (d) emit per-sub-file artifact entries for .claw/settings.json and .claw/sessions/ (skipped status if absent, deferred-to-first-save acceptable) so automation knows what's present; (e) regression test: claw init produces a .claw.json whose permissions.defaultMode is NOT dontAsk; .claw/ contains at least one templated file. Why this matters: init is the primary onboarding surface. Every first-time user piping curl install.sh | sh && claw init gets a workspace pre-configured to skip permission prompts — and that workspace gets committed to the user's repo via the init-added entry. The .claw/ empty-directory bug means feature discovery (skills, plugins) lacks the scaffolding it implies.

CC2-RM-A0531-version-output-format-json-omits-build-p

Title: version --output-format json omits build provenance fields — no is_dirty, branch, commit_date, commit_timestamp, rustc_version; git_sha is truncated to 7 chars instead of full 40-char hash; sibling: executable_path leaks the build host's path (/tmp/claw-dog-0530/...) into runtime output — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 8cf628a5 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503320791582900344. Reproduction: claw version --output-format json returns {"build_date":"2026-05-11","executable_path":"/tmp/claw-dog-0530/rust/target/release/claw","git_sha":"b98b9a7","kind":"version","message":"Claw Code\n Version 0.1.0\n Git SHA b98b9a7\n Target aarch64-apple-darwin\n Build date 2026-05-11","target":"aarch64-apple-darwin","version":"0.1.0"}. Critical provenance fields missing: (a) is_dirty — was the working tree clean at build time? Automation that pins on build provenance cannot tell if the binary was built from a clean commit or includes uncommitted changes; (b) branch — was this built from main, dev/rust, a release tag, or a feature branch? The git_sha alone doesn't reveal the integration point; (c) commit_date / commit_timestamp — only build_date (when the binary was compiled) is exposed; the commit itself might be days/weeks older if the build happened later. Reproducibility audits need both; (d) rustc_version — what Rust compiler version produced this binary? Critical for security advisories (e.g., known regressions in specific rustc versions); (e) git_sha truncated to 7 chars ("b98b9a7" instead of full "b98b9a71..."): 7-char shas have known collision rates in large repos and prevent unambiguous git rev-parse round-trip. Sibling: executable_path leaks build-host path. The executable_path field returns /tmp/claw-dog-0530/rust/target/release/claw — the directory where the binary was compiled, embedded into the binary metadata. For a binary copied/installed/symlinked to a different location, this field still reports the build path, not the actual invocation path. Either the field should reflect the runtime path via std::env::current_exe() at runtime (not compile-time), or it should be dropped to avoid leaking compile-host filesystem layout. Sibling: prose message field duplicates structured data. The message field still contains the entire text-mode prose version block ("Claw Code\n Version 0.1.0\n Git SHA b98b9a7\n...") — every field present as structured JSON (version, git_sha, target, build_date) is also embedded in the prose. Same issue as #391 (version json includes prose message field) which was closed as "fixed" — the prose remains. Required fix shape: (a) add is_dirty:bool, branch:string|null, commit_date:string (ISO-8601), commit_timestamp:int (Unix epoch), rustc_version:string to the JSON envelope; (b) preserve full 40-char git_sha and add git_sha_short:string as a derived field if 7-char form is needed for UX; (c) executable_path should be std::env::current_exe() at runtime, not the compile-time path; (d) drop the prose message field from JSON or rename it human_readable:string and make it explicitly secondary to the structured fields; (e) re-verify #391 closure — the prose message is still present, the fix didn't fully land. Why this matters: version surface is the canonical provenance probe for security audits, build reproducibility, and bug-report metadata. Missing is_dirty means automated triage cannot distinguish "issue against a clean main commit" from "issue against a developer's uncommitted hack". Truncated git_sha blocks unambiguous git lookup. Leaked executable_path exposes build-host layout.

Run claw system-prompt --output-format json and search the message field for each marker: only MARKER-FROM-CLAUDE-MD is found; MARKER-FROM-AGENTS-MD and MARKER-FROM-CLAW-MD are absent. claw-code exclusively recognizes the Claude-branded filename inherited from upstream Claude Code; the project's own CLAW.md brand name and the cross-tool industry convention AGENTS.md are both silently dropped. Three sibling implications: (a) brand-consistency gap: a project rebranded from Claude Code to Claw Code that introduces CLAUDE.md as its only memory file is internally inconsistent. Users naturally expect claw <subcommand> to read CLAW.md. (b) industry-convention gap: AGENTS.md is the convergent convention for OpenCode (oh-my-opencode/sisyphus), OpenAI Codex CLI, Aider, Cursor, Continue.dev, and most ACP harnesses. Users with mixed-tool workflows maintain a shared AGENTS.md and expect every AI coding tool to honor it. (c) silent failure mode: there is no warning when AGENTS.md or CLAW.md exist but are not loaded. Users who copy-paste AGENTS.md from another tool's docs see memory_file_count stay at 0 or 1 and have to guess why their instructions aren't applied. Required fix shape: (a) discover and load CLAUDE.md, CLAW.md, AGENTS.md in that priority order (existing config-precedence pattern); (b) all three contribute to memory_file_count with memory_files:[{path, source:"claude_md"|"claw_md"|"agents_md", chars}] array exposed in status --output-format json; (c) when multiple files exist, merge or document the precedence: project-specific CLAUDE.md/CLAW.md overrides industry-shared AGENTS.md; (d) claw doctor --output-format json adds a memory check that warns when AGENTS.md exists but is not the loaded variant (alerting users that they may be relying on the wrong file); (e) regression test: workspace with all three files results in memory_file_count >= 1 and the system prompt contains markers from at least the highest-precedence file. Why this matters: AGENTS.md is the lingua-franca instruction file for cross-tool AI coding workflows. A team using OpenCode for one project and Claw Code for another keeps their conventions in a shared AGENTS.md. Forcing them to also maintain a CLAUDE.md for claw-code (with identical content) is friction that breaks the value proposition of a fork. Cross-references #438 itself (the multi-file convention), and AGENTS.md ecosystem references in oh-my-opencode/sisyphus docs. Source: Jobdori live dogfood, d3a982dd, 2026-05-11.

CC2-RM-A0533-memory-file-discovery-walks-all-ancestor

Title: Memory file discovery walks ALL ancestor directories up to $HOME boundary, silently loading any CLAUDE.md it finds — /tmp/CLAUDE.md left from a previous test silently bleeds into every project under /tmp/*/; no --no-parent-memory flag, no .no-claude-md-boundary marker file to limit discovery scope — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on f4a96740 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503335892461293675. Reproduction: create three nested CLAUDE.md files with unique markers — /tmp/claw-nested-probe/CLAUDE.md (PARENT_CLAUDE), subproj/CLAUDE.md (CHILD_CLAUDE), subproj/deep/CLAUDE.md (DEEP_CLAUDE). Run claw system-prompt --output-format json from subproj/deep/nest/ (note: nest has no CLAUDE.md). The message field contains all three markers (PARENT + CHILD + DEEP) and status --output-format json reports memory_file_count: 3. Boundary tests: (a) $HOME/CLAUDE.md is NOT picked up from /tmp/no-claude-dir (discovery stops at $HOME boundary, good); (b) From /tmp/deep (no nested CLAUDE.md), /tmp/CLAUDE.md IS picked up (count: 1); (c) git-root is NOT a discovery boundary — running from a git subdir still walks above the git root. Ambient-context-bleed footgun: any stale /tmp/CLAUDE.md (or /home/<user>/projects/CLAUDE.md, or any ancestor-path CLAUDE.md left over from a previous experiment, copy-paste, or AI-generated example) silently bleeds into every workspace nested below it. The user has no signal in status --output-format json indicating which ancestor file is contributing — only the aggregate memory_file_count. Three required fixes: (a) expose discovery list: status --output-format json and system-prompt --output-format json must include memory_files:[{path, source:"workspace"|"ancestor"|"parent_dir"|"home", chars, contributes:bool}] so users can see what's leaking in; (b) add --no-parent-memory flag to limit discovery to cwd only (no ancestor walk), or add a boundary marker (.claude-no-walk, .claw-root, or honor .git as the boundary by default — most users expect repo-root scope); (c) doctor warns when ancestor CLAUDE.md files are loaded from outside the current git repo (suggests they may be unintentional). Sibling discovery scope question: discovery walks up to $HOME — but for a user with a project at /Users/foo/work/proj, that's /Users/foo/work/CLAUDE.md + /Users/foo/CLAUDE.md (if it exists) both load. The home boundary is exclusive, but the entire /Users/foo tree under home is in scope. Why this matters: test workspaces, scratch dirs, AI-generated example projects, and shared /tmp workdirs are full of stale CLAUDE.md files. The current discovery rule means every claw invocation can silently inherit context from arbitrary ancestor paths. Cross-references #438 (memory discovery only finds CLAUDE.md, not AGENTS.md or CLAW.md), #421 (cwd canonicalization leak — the canonicalized form determines which ancestor walk path is used).

CC2-RM-A0534-one-invalid-mcpservers-entry-blocks-all

Title: One invalid mcpServers entry blocks ALL OTHER valid MCP servers from loading — mcp list --output-format json returns configured_servers: 0, servers: [] when even one server has a missing/invalid command field, despite other servers in the same config being well-formed; sibling: config parser halts on first invalid entry, never reports the remaining invalid entries — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on bd126905 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503343442904879156. Reproduction: write .claw.json containing six mcpServers entries — one valid (valid-server: {command:"/bin/echo", args:["hello"]}) and five with progressive defects (missing-command, empty-command, null-command, wrong-type-command, extra-unknown-field). Run claw mcp list --output-format json → {"action":"list","config_load_error":"/private/tmp/claw-mcp-probe/.claw.json: mcpServers.missing-command-server: missing string field command","configured_servers":0,"kind":"mcp","servers":[],"status":"degraded"}. The error mentions only missing-command-server (the first invalid entry in JSON-object iteration order); the other four invalid entries are never surfaced. The valid valid-server entry is silently dropped because the parser bails on the first error. status --output-format json correctly propagates the same config_load_error and sets status:"degraded", but no field tells automation which servers are valid vs broken — servers:[] is the only signal. Three problems compounded: (a) all-or-nothing loading: ROADMAP product principle #5 says "partial success is first-class," but mcp config loading is binary. One bad server kills the entire MCP plane; (b) first-error-only reporting: a .claw.json with five invalid entries surfaces only one error message — the user fixes that one and runs again, gets the next error, and so on. Five iterations needed to discover all errors; (c) no per-server status: even with the partial-success fix, the JSON envelope needs servers:[{name, valid:bool, error?, command?, args?}] so automation can see which entries are usable. Required fix shape: (a) the MCP config parser must collect ALL invalid entries into an invalid_servers:[{name, error_field, reason}] array and load all valid ones into servers:[]; do not abort on first error; (b) configured_servers reflects the count of valid loaded servers (not zero) when there are valid entries alongside invalid ones; (c) expose total_configured:int (count of entries in source .claw.json) AND valid_count:int (loaded), AND invalid_count:int (rejected) — three distinct counts; (d) doctor --output-format json adds an mcp_validation check that lists each invalid entry with its error message; (e) regression test: .claw.json with one valid + one invalid entry results in configured_servers: 1, invalid_servers: [{name:"...", reason:"..."}]. Why this matters: users iterate on MCP server lists during onboarding — one typo kills the entire plane, including servers they got working previously. The first-error-only reporting forces N iterations through N invalid entries instead of a single fix-everything-at-once pass.

CC2-RM-A0535-hooks-config-schema-diverges-from-claude

Title: hooks config schema diverges from Claude Code documented format — claw-code expects {"hooks":{"PreToolUse":["command-string"]}} (array of command strings) while Claude Code documentation specifies {"hooks":{"PreToolUse":[{"matcher":"Read","hooks":[{"type":"command","command":"..."}]}]}} (structured matcher objects); users copy-pasting from Claude Code docs see field "hooks.PreToolUse" must be an array of strings — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 86ff83c2 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503350990680887418. Reproduction: write .claw.json with the Claude-Code-documented hook format {"hooks":{"PreToolUse":[{"matcher":"Read","hooks":[{"type":"command","command":"/bin/echo pretool"}]}]}}. Run claw status --output-format json → config_load_error: "/private/tmp/claw-hook-probe/.claw.json: field \"hooks.PreToolUse\" must be an array of strings, got an array (line 3)", status: "degraded". The error wording ("must be an array of strings, got an array") is confusingly tautological — the user did provide an array; the parser objects that the array contains objects instead of strings. Replacing with the claw-code-actual format {"hooks":{"PreToolUse":["/bin/echo pretool"]}} succeeds: config_load_error: null, status: "ok". The two formats are fundamentally incompatible: claw-code drops the matcher field (no tool-specific filtering at the config layer), drops the type:"command" discriminator (no future expansion to other hook types), and treats each entry as a bare command string instead of a structured hook spec. Sibling: PR #3000 (justcode049) was attempting to tolerate object-style hook entries — that PR's title fix: tolerate object-style hook entries in config parser confirms this is a known user complaint, but the PR is still conflicting and unmerged. Three sibling findings in same probe: (a) unknown event names reject entire hooks config: .claw.json with hooks.InvalidEvent (not a real event name like PreToolUse/PostToolUse/Stop/Notification) triggers config_load_error: "unknown key \"hooks.InvalidEvent\"" and rejects ALL hooks in the same file, even valid ones — same "one bad apple kills all" pattern as #440 (MCP servers). (b) kind:"unknown" for the validation error — should be kind:"invalid_hooks_config" or kind:"unknown_hook_event" (catch-all cluster #422/#423/#424/#428/#430/#431/#432/#433/#435 — 13th occurrence). (c) first-error-only halting: a .claw.json with hooks.Stop:"not-an-array" (type mismatch) AND hooks.InvalidEvent (unknown name) AND hooks.Notification:[{}] (empty entry) surfaces only the FIRST error in iteration order — user must fix one at a time across 3 iterations. Required fix shape: (a) adopt Claude Code's structured hook format as the canonical: support {matcher, hooks:[{type, command}]} natively, with matcher for tool-filtering, type for hook-type discriminator (future-proof for inline/webhook/etc beyond just command); (b) keep backward compat for bare command strings: legacy ["command-string"] arrays still load, but emit a deprecation warning suggesting migration to the structured form; (c) partial-success loading: invalid hook entries surface in invalid_hooks:[{event, index, reason}] while valid ones load — same fix as #440 for MCP; (d) typed kind:"invalid_hooks_config" envelope instead of kind:"unknown"; (e) rebase and merge PR #3000 which addresses this directly; (f) regression test: Claude-Code-documented hook config loads without error on claw-code. Why this matters: users migrating from Claude Code to Claw Code hit this on their first .claw.json write. The error message ("array of strings, got an array") is unhelpful; the documentation doesn't surface the schema divergence; and Claude Code's structured format is strictly more expressive (matchers, types) than claw-code's bare-string format. Cross-references #407 (config files no load_error), #410 (list-envelope schema drift), #428 (default permission mode), #440 (one invalid MCP entry blocks all), PR #3000 (justcode049's pending fix).

CC2-RM-A0536-agents-discovery-requires-toml-format-to

Title: agents discovery requires TOML format (.toml files) while Claude Code documents agents as Markdown with YAML frontmatter (.md) — claw-code silently ignores .md files in .claw/agents/ without any warning; the help text lists .claw/agents, ~/.claw/agents, $CLAW_CONFIG_HOME/agents as sources but does not mention the .toml file format requirement — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 8499599b in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503358540230692876. Reproduction: write .claw/agents/valid-agent.md with Claude-Code-format YAML frontmatter ---\nname: valid-agent\ndescription: A simple test agent\ntools: [bash, read_file]\n---\nYou are a helpful agent. Run claw agents list --output-format json → {"agents":[], "count":0, "summary":{"active":0,"shadowed":0,"total":0}}. The valid .md agent is silently dropped. Replace with .claw/agents/toml-agent.toml containing TOML format name = "toml-agent"\ndescription = "..." → loads correctly with count:1. Source code confirms (rust/crates/commands/src/lib.rs:3378): if entry.path().extension().is_none_or(|ext| ext != "toml") { continue; } — only .toml extension is recognized, all others (including .md) skipped without warning. The help text claw agents --help documents the source paths but omits the file-format requirement. Five sibling problems compounded: (a) schema divergence from Claude Code: Claude Code's agents are documented as .md files with YAML frontmatter (matching the CLAUDE.md/.claude/agents/ convention upstream). claw-code chose TOML for no documented reason. Users migrating from Claude Code or copy-pasting community agent definitions hit silent failure. (b) silent file drop: invalid agent files (wrong extension, broken frontmatter, missing required fields, file-name vs frontmatter-name mismatch) are all silently ignored with count:0. No invalid_agents:[] array, no warning, no kind:"agent_load_failed" envelope. Same all-or-nothing pattern as #440 (MCP servers) and #441 (hooks). (c) no documentation of the schema: claw agents --help --output-format json (per #427, this hits the auth gate; without auth it doesn't return the schema either). The required TOML fields (name, description, model, model_reasoning_effort per source code) aren't documented in any user-facing surface. (d) missing .claude/agents/ discovery: many existing projects have .claude/agents/ from Claude Code installs. claw-code only looks at .claw/agents/ — users have to copy/move their existing agents. (e) no agent-scaffolding command: cross-reference #431 — there's no claw agents create <name> to generate a valid .toml skeleton; users must hand-craft. Required fix shape: (a) accept BOTH .md (with YAML frontmatter) AND .toml formats in .claw/agents/; prefer YAML frontmatter for Claude Code parity, keep TOML for back-compat; (b) include .claude/agents/ in the discovery sources alongside .claw/agents/ with documented precedence; (c) expose invalid_agents:[{path, reason}] array in agents list --output-format json so users can see what was skipped and why; (d) document the agent schema (required + optional fields) in claw agents --help and in USAGE.md; (e) add claw agents create <name> scaffolding command per #431; (f) regression test: .claw/agents/foo.md with YAML frontmatter loads correctly. Why this matters: agents are the primary extension surface for custom workflows. A silent-drop on the wrong file format breaks the discoverability promise of CLI agents. Claude Code's .md-with-YAML convention is the lingua franca across AI coding tools; deviating to TOML breaks copy-paste compatibility.

CC2-RM-A0538-no-broad-cwd-safety-guard-for-resume-cla

Title: No broad-cwd safety guard for --resume — claw --resume latest from / attempts to mkdir /.claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/ and is only stopped by the read-only filesystem at root; from any writable system directory (/tmp, /var/tmp, $HOME itself) it silently creates .claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/ droppings; exit code is 0 (success) on the read-only filesystem error path — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on b2048856 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503373639884607629. Reproduction: cd / && claw --resume latest --output-format json returns {"error":"failed to restore session: Read-only file system (os error 30)","hint":null,"kind":"session_load_failed","type":"error"} exit 0. The OS permission denial is the only thing preventing claw from creating /.claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/ in the root filesystem. Compare with cd /tmp && claw --resume latest --output-format json: silently creates /tmp/.claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/ partition (confirmed by ls /tmp/.claw showing a directory from a prior dogfood session at 13:31 — the May 11 11:00 pinpoint #435 dropping is still there 10+ hours later, despite documented cleanup). Same dogfood session: cd $HOME && claw --resume latest would silently create ~/.claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/ (the user's home claw config dir). The shorthand prompt path has a broad-cwd guard (claw is running from a very broad directory (/). The agent can read and search everything under this path. Use --allow-broad-cwd to proceed anyway) — but the guard does NOT fire on --resume, --status, or claw status invocations. Inconsistent safety surface: the dangerous path (LLM prompt with full tool access) has a guard, but session-management paths that create filesystem artifacts in broad locations have none. Three sibling findings in same probe: (a) exit-code 0 on filesystem error (session_load_failed envelope returns exit code 0): the read-only-filesystem error from /.claw creation path is an unrecoverable failure but the process exits 0 — same exit-parity bug as #422/#435; (b) stale filesystem droppings: /tmp/.claw/ from a 13:31 dogfood session at HEAD 6c0c305a is still present at 21:30 (10 hours later, 6+ HEADs later). The "deferred cleanup" or "lazy creation" fix prescribed in #435 hasn't landed; (c) broad-cwd guard misfires on resume: the existing guard from run path (visible in claw --help as "Use --allow-broad-cwd to proceed anyway") never fires on --resume. Either both paths should guard, or the guard should be promoted to a global pre-check. Required fix shape: (a) extend the broad-cwd guard to --resume, claw status, claw doctor, and every command that may create filesystem artifacts; cd / && claw --resume latest must fail fast with kind:"broad_cwd_blocked" before any filesystem operation; (b) cd $HOME && claw should warn that the workspace is your home directory and ask for --allow-broad-cwd (the LLM with full filesystem access in $HOME is the same blast radius as in /); (c) exit code 1 for session_load_failed regardless of underlying cause; (d) deliver #435's "defer fingerprint directory creation to first successful save" fix — failed --resume must not leave filesystem droppings; (e) cleanup /tmp/.claw/ style scratch-dir artifacts via a claw doctor --cleanup or similar opt-in mechanism; (f) regression test: failed --resume does not create any directories under cwd. Why this matters: users running claw as part of CI/cron from system directories silently accumulate .claw/sessions/<fingerprint>/ artifacts in /tmp, /var, /opt, $HOME, etc. Running as root from / would (with a writable root) silently pollute the root filesystem. The broad-cwd guard exists but only covers one entry point. Cross-references #427 (broad-cwd guard fires on resume too — actually it doesn't, that note in #427 was inaccurate), #428 (default permission_mode danger-full-access — compounds with this: full access + no broad-cwd guard = serious blast radius), #435 (filesystem side effects on failed resume), #422 (exit-code parity).

CC2-RM-A0539-skill-name-vs-directory-mismatch-is-sile

Title: Skill name-vs-directory mismatch is silently accepted — .claw/skills/wrong-name/SKILL.md with frontmatter name: actually-different-name loads as "actually-different-name" without any warning; users who reference the skill by directory name (claw skills run wrong-name) get skill_not_found while skills list shows it under the frontmatter name; sibling: loose .md files at the skills-dir root and subdirs without SKILL.md are silently dropped — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 9e1eafd0 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503381189539528897. Reproduction: create .claw/skills/wrong-name/SKILL.md with frontmatter ---\nname: actually-different-name\ndescription: Skill where dir name and frontmatter name disagree\n---. Run claw skills list --output-format json → the skill is listed with name: "actually-different-name" (the frontmatter value), no warning about the dir-vs-name mismatch. Users who type claw skills run wrong-name (the dirname they know from ls) get a skill_not_found error; claw skills run actually-different-name works. The two names are decoupled with no surfaced relationship. Three sibling silent-drop bugs in same probe: (a) subdir without SKILL.md silently skipped: .claw/skills/no-skill-md/ containing only README.md (no SKILL.md) is silently skipped from skills list. No invalid_skills:[{path, reason:"missing_SKILL.md"}] array, no warning, just absent from output. (b) Loose .md at skills dir root silently dropped: .claw/skills/loose-skill.md (not inside a per-skill subdirectory) is silently ignored. Discovery only walks .claw/skills/*/SKILL.md — no support for flat .claw/skills/<name>.md. (c) Workspace + user skills merged without per-source filter: skills list returns 74 entries including all ~/.claw/skills/* user-home skills alongside the project skills. There's no --scope workspace flag to limit output to just project-local skills; automation has to filter by source.id == "project_claw" post-hoc. Required fix shape: (a) when SKILL.md frontmatter name differs from the parent directory name, emit a skills_metadata_drift:[{dir_name, frontmatter_name, path}] array OR enforce name = dir_name as a hard rule; if neither, at minimum a stderr warning on each invocation; (b) skill subdirectories without SKILL.md should surface as invalid_skills:[{path, reason}] in skills list --output-format json (same pattern as #440 MCP servers, #441 hooks, #442 agents); (c) support loose .md files at skills-dir root OR document explicitly that only subdirectories with SKILL.md are discovered; (d) add --scope workspace|user|all flag to skills list for filtering; (e) regression test: dir/frontmatter mismatch triggers a deterministic warning or error; subdirs without SKILL.md show in invalid array. Why this matters: skill discovery is a security-relevant surface — a user's claw skills run X could end up running a different skill than they thought if dir-name and frontmatter-name diverge. The silent drops mean users can't tell why their skill files aren't recognized, leading to "I copied the example and it doesn't work" forum questions.

CC2-RM-A0540-config-is-loaded-2-3-times-per-command-i

Title: Config is loaded 2-3 times per command invocation; each load re-emits identical deprecation warnings without deduplication — status triggers 3× enabledPlugins warning, doctor/mcp trigger 2× each, only version (config-free) emits 0 — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 5a4cc506 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503388740595224717. Reproduction: with a ~/.claw/settings.json containing the deprecated enabledPlugins key, run each command from a fresh empty cwd and count warning: ... is deprecated lines on stderr — claw status 2>&1 >/dev/null | grep -c deprecated returns 3, claw doctor returns 2, claw mcp returns 2, claw version returns 0. Each duplicate is byte-identical (same file path, same line number, same field name). The pattern proves the config-load pipeline is invoked 2-3 times within a single command process; warnings are emitted at each load without checking a warned_files: HashSet<PathBuf> deduplication set. Three sibling implications: (a) load-count varies by command — status:3, doctor:2, mcp:2, version:0 — suggesting each command implements its own config-load call rather than going through a shared cached loader; (b) noise pollution: users running claw status once see the same 64-character warning 3 times in their terminal scrollback, making real warnings (other config errors, real deprecations) lost in the duplicate noise; (c) performance signal: 3× config load means 3× JSON parsing of ~/.claw/settings.json, ~/.claw.json, $CLAW_CONFIG_HOME/settings.json, and the project-local .claw.json / .claw/settings.json / .claw/settings.local.json. For a workspace with 5 config files, that's 15 redundant disk reads per status invocation. Earlier roadmap entries observed 3× (#424) and 4× (#425) warning counts at different HEADs; the count keeps fluctuating, suggesting the underlying issue is config-load fan-out that nobody has refactored. Required fix shape: (a) introduce a ConfigLoader cache scoped to the command-process lifetime: first load reads files and emits warnings; subsequent calls hit the cache and emit zero warnings; (b) move config validation/warnings to a single canonical entry point (ConfigLoader::load_with_diagnostics() returns (RuntimeConfig, Vec<Warning>) exactly once); (c) every command that needs config goes through the cached loader instead of re-reading from disk; (d) doctor --output-format json exposes config_load_count:int field so we can regression-test that loads are deduplicated; (e) regression test: any single command invocation emits each deprecation warning at most once. Why this matters: repeated identical warnings train users to ignore stderr noise. Real warnings (a new deprecation, a config error from a different file, an MCP server failure) get drowned out by 3-4 copies of the same notice. The 15-disk-read worst case is wasted I/O that adds startup latency. The fact that count fluctuates between HEADs (3 at 6c0c305a, 4 at d7dbe951, back to 3 at 5a4cc506) suggests dev velocity is moving config loads around without an architectural fix. Cross-references #424 (deprecation warning 3×), #425 (deprecation warning 4×), #421 (cwd canonicalization — possibly tied to per-load symlink resolution), #428 (default permission_mode loaded from same config files).

CC2-RM-A0541-all-json-error-envelopes-go-to-stderr-no

Title: All JSON error envelopes go to STDERR not STDOUT; stdout is empty (0 bytes) on every --output-format json failure — breaks the standard automation pattern output=$(claw cmd --output-format json) which captures nothing on error and forces ugly 2>&1 redirects to even see the JSON — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 5ab969e7 in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503396289071808523. Reproduction (stderr-vs-stdout discipline audit): claw --no-such-flag --output-format json >stdout.txt 2>stderr.txt → stdout = 0 bytes, stderr = 115 bytes containing {"error":"unknown option: --no-such-flag","hint":"Run \claw --help` for usage.","kind":"cli_parse","type":"error"}. Same pattern across four error envelopes probed: (a) cli_parse→ stdout 0 / stderr 115; (b)missing_credentials→ stdout 0 / stderr 853 (includes deprecation warnings ahead of envelope); (c)session_load_failed→ stdout 0 / stderr 322; (d)invalid_model_syntax→ stdout 0 / stderr 199. Success paths route correctly:claw status --output-format json→ stdout 1496 / stderr 0. **The asymmetry is wrong on two axes:** (a) **JSON-format outputs should always go to stdout regardless of success/failure**: every major CLI in this class (kubectl, gh, aws, jq, terraform-json, npm --json) emits JSON on stdout for both ok and error paths; consumers parse stdout | jq .kindand switch on the kind to detect errors. claw's split forces consumers to capture both streams or use2>&1 which then includes deprecation prose alongside the JSON envelope and breaks parsing. (b) **Deprecation/info warnings leak into the JSON error envelope on stderr**: when stderr is the only path to get the JSON, the deprecation warning prefix (warning: ... enabledPlugins ... is deprecated) precedes the JSON, making tail -1 stderr.txt | jq .fragile. **Three sibling problems:** (i) **breaks the canonical Bash idiom**if ! output=$(cmd --output-format json); then echo "$output" | jq .error; fi—$outputis empty on error so thejqcall sees nothing. (ii) **forces N-line stderr parsing**: to get the JSON envelope from stderr, automation must read until EOF, then skip leadingwarning:lines, then parse only the last{...}JSON. This is a brittle heuristic that breaks if more warnings are added. (iii) **inconsistent with text mode**: text-mode error output ALSO goes to stderr (e.g.,claw --no-such-flag→ stderr[error-kind: cli_parse]\nerror: ...) — that's correct for text mode (stderr is the diagnostic channel). The bug is JSON mode inheriting the same routing. **Required fix shape:** (a) JSON error envelopes go to STDOUT when --output-format jsonis active; (b) keep text-mode error output on stderr (no change for text path); (c) deprecation/info warnings should ALSO go to stderr in JSON mode (they're diagnostic prose, not part of the JSON contract) — separate channels: JSON envelope on stdout, prose warnings on stderr; (d) add--quiet/--no-warnflag to fully suppress stderr warnings for clean automation; (e) regression test: every--output-format jsonfailure path emits the JSON envelope on stdout, exit non-zero, no JSON ever on stderr. **Why this matters:** the entire point of--output-format jsonis enabling automation. Splitting JSON success vs error across stdout vs stderr defeats the purpose — automation must capture both, dedupe sources, and parse mixed streams.

CC2-RM-A0542-sandbox-output-format-json-has-contradic

Title: sandbox --output-format json has contradictory state flags — enabled:true, supported:false, active:false, filesystem_active:true, allowed_mounts:[]: claim that sandbox is "enabled" while OS doesn't support namespace isolation and allowed_mounts:[] is empty contradicts filesystem_active:true filesystem_mode:"workspace-only" — dogfooded 2026-05-11 by Jobdori on 7244a82b in response to Clawhip pinpoint nudge at 1503403842920779917 (using fresh-current-main runner at /tmp/claw-dog-1430 per gajae's 14:00 protocol switch). Reproduction: claw sandbox --output-format json on macOS (where unshare is unavailable) returns {"active":false,"active_namespace":false,"active_network":false,"allowed_mounts":[],"enabled":true,"fallback_reason":"namespace isolation unavailable (requires Linux with \unshare`)","filesystem_active":true,"filesystem_mode":"workspace-only","in_container":false,"kind":"sandbox","markers":[],"requested_namespace":true,"requested_network":false,"supported":false}. **Three contradictions in the same envelope:** (a) enabled:trueANDsupported:false: what does "enabled" mean if the OS doesn't support sandboxing? Read literally, sandbox is *enabled but unsupported* — semantic nonsense. The likely intent is "user requested sandbox in config" but the field name enabledsays "is ON". A better name would berequested:trueorconfig_intent:true, with enabledreserved for the actually-active state. (b)filesystem_active:true, filesystem_mode:"workspace-only"ANDallowed_mounts:[]: if the filesystem fence is active in workspace-only mode, the workspace directory itself MUST be an allowed mount. An empty allowed_mounts:[]array combined withfilesystem_active:truemeans either (i) the fence is being misreported (it's not really active), (ii) the workspace is implicit andallowed_mountsonly lists *additional* mounts, or (iii) the fence has no allowed paths and nothing is readable — all three are inconsistent with the user-facing summary. (c)active:falseANDfilesystem_active:true: the top-level activefield is a single boolean summary, but it disagrees withfilesystem_active:true(one component is active). Eitheractiveis "all components active" (then it should befalsewhen any component is off) or "any component active" (then it should betruewhen filesystem is). The current value isfalsedespite filesystem being active. **Sibling: noclaw sandbox --help**: claw sandbox statusandclaw sandbox --helpgo to LLM-prompt fallback or hang (gajae confirmed at 13:00 thatsandbox statusreturns typedcli_parsebutsandbox --helpis bounded — schema is non-uniform across help paths). **Required fix shape:** (a) renameenabledtorequestedorconfig_intentto disambiguate from "currently active"; (b) makeallowed_mounts explicitly include the workspace when filesystem_mode is "workspace-only" (allowed_mounts:[{path:"",writable:true,reason:"workspace_root"}]); (c) document the activeaggregate semantics: pick either "all" or "any" composition rule and document the choice; (d) addactive_components:["filesystem"]array as a richer alternative to the single boolean — surfaces exactly which sandbox subsystems are live; (e) regression test: whenfilesystem_mode == "workspace-only", allowed_mountsMUST contain the cwd andactivemust agree with the documented composition rule. **Why this matters:** sandbox is the trust surface — automation that checkssandbox.active == truebefore running a risky LLM prompt seesfalse(no namespace, no network) and assumes no isolation, butfilesystem_active:truemeans there IS partial isolation. The mixed signal forces consumers to OR all*_activefields together. Cross-references #428 (default permission_mode=danger-full-access — paired with sandbox-not-active means zero isolation), #444 (no broad-cwd guard — sandbox is the only safety net and its status is unclear).
