Merge upstream zakirkun/shiro-neko (v1.0.0: cost control, 41 tools, 29 skills, custom commands, auto-load)

Keeps local claude-code preset (readClaudeCodeSettings from ~/.claude/settings.json) merged with upstream Pickers refactor. Resolved Onboard.tsx: both readClaudeCodeSettings + Frame/Row imports.

 # shiro-neko
 Agentic coding CLI, built with Bun + TypeScript. The interactive UI is React rendered to the
 terminal with Ink; LLM access goes through the Vercel AI SDK (`ai`) with Anthropic, OpenAI,
 OpenAI-compatible, and MCP providers. Entry point and only executable is `src/cli.tsx` (bin `shiro`).
 ## Commands
 - `bun install --frozen-lockfile` — install deps (CI uses this; lockfile is `bun.lock`)
 - `bun run shiro` — run the CLI from source (i.e. `bun run src/cli.tsx`)
 - `bun test` — full test suite (`bun:test`, no other runner)
 - `bun run typecheck` — `tsc --noEmit`; must pass before committing
 - `bun run build` — `bun build --compile` to `dist/shiro` (single native binary)
 - `bun run release` — cross-compile all five targets into `dist/release/`
 - No linter or formatter is configured; don't invent one.
 CI (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`) runs install → typecheck → test → build on Ubuntu, macOS, and
 Windows, pinned to Bun 1.3.14. Everything must be cross-platform: the tools shell out to the
 platform shell, and paths in code and tests go through `node:path`, never hardcoded `/`.
 ## Layout
 - `src/` — flat modules, one concern per file, lowercase names (`session.ts`, `prune.ts`).
  `src/ui/` holds the Ink components, PascalCase (`App.tsx`, `Panels.tsx`).
 - `test/` — one `<name>.test.ts` per `src/<name>.ts`; `*.test.tsx` for UI tests via
  `ink-testing-library`. `test/helpers.ts` has `testHooks()`, the standard App fixture.
 - `docs/` — user-facing docs, one per feature area.
 - `scripts/` — `release.ts`, `install.ts` (+ `.sh`/`.ps1` installers).
 - `src/version.ts` — hardcoded VERSION; the release workflow fails if it disagrees with the git tag.
 ## Conventions
 - ES modules, `verbatimModuleSyntax` on: import types with `import type`. Strict TS with
  `noUncheckedIndexedAccess` — indexing gives `T | undefined`, so handle it (`arr[i]!` appears
  where provably safe).
 - Uses Bun APIs directly (`Bun.file`, `Bun.write`, `Bun.spawn`, `Bun.Glob`) — no fs-extra, no
  node shims. File tools read/write through `Bun.*`, not `fs`, where practical.
 - Path safety: every user/model-supplied path goes through `jail()` (in `src/ignore.ts`), which
  rejects escapes outside `process.cwd()`. Tools resolve paths against `process.cwd()`.
 - Error handling: tool `execute` functions return error text to the model or throw `Error` with a
  plain message — no error classes, no codes. Storage reads (`store.ts`, `memory.ts`) catch and
  degrade to empty rather than throw on corrupt JSON.
 - Tools are AI-SDK `tool()` objects with zod `inputSchema`. Any tool that mutates the workspace
  must be added to `MUTATING_TOOLS` in `src/tools.ts` — a test in `permission.test.ts` fails
  otherwise. The permission system (`src/permission.ts`) matches rules against the tool's subject
  (command for `bash`, path for file tools) with glob matching, and is pure/no-IO on purpose.
 - Comments explain *why*, often naming the failure being guarded against. Match that style.
 - Tests import from `bun:test`, build mock models with `MockLanguageModelV4` +
  `simulateReadableStream` from `ai/test`, and each test that touches the filesystem does
  `process.chdir()` into a fresh `mkdtemp` dir in `beforeEach` and restores in `afterEach`.
 ## Surprising / easy to break
 - `bun test` runs the whole suite including `fallback-live.test.ts`, which spins up real local
  HTTP servers via `Bun.serve`, and `commit.test.ts`, which runs real `git` in temp repos — both
  need a working network stack and git on PATH.
 - Tool output is capped (`MAX_OUTPUT` in `src/tools.ts`); read_file returns NUL-sniffed binary
  files as an error. Don't remove these — they stop a model from burning its context.
 - Ink renders to the terminal, so library warnings are suppressed at the top of `cli.tsx`
  (`AI_SDK_LOG_WARNINGS = false`); anything written to stderr tears the UI.
 - Sessions, memory, and history live under `~/.shiro-neko/`, relocatable with `SHIRO_HOME`;
  tests depend on that env var to isolate state. Don't resolve the path eagerly at module load —
  `store.ts` resolves it per call for this reason.
 - Release tags must match `src/version.ts` exactly or `release.ts` stops the build.

 # Audit
 Checklist from a full audit of the codebase, run against `main` at `a22d8e1` ("release 0.1.0-beta.5").
 The greps cover every file under `src/`, `test/`, `docs/`, `.github/workflows/`, and `scripts/`.
 Nothing here is a fix — it is a list. Items already tracked in `TODO.md` or `ROADMAP.md` say so;
 untracked items are marked **not yet tracked**.
 ---
 ## A. Clean findings (verified, no action needed)
 - [x] **No TODO/FIXME/HACK markers in `src/`.** All 26 matches are false positives:
      placeholder attributes, the `TODO_MARK` export in `src/notebook.ts` (a literal string
      ingredient of the todos feature), and "later" in prose.
 - [x] **No `as any` / `@ts-ignore` / `@ts-expect-error` / `@ts-nocheck` / `: any` in `src/`.**
      Zero matches. The project's own `docs/development.md` rule is being kept.
 - [x] **No silently swallowed errors in `src/`.** Every `catch` was reviewed:
      - `src/registry.ts:116,155` — JSON parse failures become descriptive errors.
      - `src/registry.ts:120-123,159-162` — zod schema validation with named failure reasons.
      - `src/plugins.ts:59-63` — a throwing plugin hook fails **closed** (blocks the call).
      - `src/subagent.ts:233-237` — errors are reported and rethrown (never swallowed).
      - `src/tools.ts:80-82` — a batch read failure is reported in place, not thrown.
      - `src/headless.ts` serialization flattens `Error` before `JSON.stringify` (would emit `{}`).
      - `src/ui/App.tsx` — all 14 catch blocks surface the message in the UI.
      - `src/plugins-builtin.ts:213-215` — the only quiet `catch`, and it is deliberate,
        commented ("a missing binary is not worth interrupting the turn over").
 - [x] **No skipped tests.** No `.skip`, `xit`, or `xdescribe` in `test/` (one match was
      `process.exit(` containing "xit(").
 - [x] **Registry fetches are size-capped and schema-validated.** `src/registry.ts` caps
      content-length and body bytes (`fetchText`, lines 100-108), validates the index with
      `indexSchema` (line 120), and regex-validates every plugin manifest pattern (line 167).
 - [x] **Version/tag consistency is enforced twice.** `scripts/release.ts` refuses a build when
      the tag and `src/version.ts` disagree (line 129), and the release workflow asserts the
      built binary prints the expected version (`.github/workflows/release.yml:42-46`).
 - [x] **Install scripts match the build targets.** `test/ci.test.ts:85-101` iterates every
      `TARGETS` entry from `scripts/release.ts` and asserts the shell/PowerShell installers
      fetch exactly those asset names.
 - [x] **`.env`/`.pem` are refused on read;** the default permission table
      (`src/permission.ts:175-186`) matches the approvals banner in `README.md`. Unknown tools
      (MCP, plugins) default to `ask` rather than allow (line 235-236), so `mcp__*` needs no
      explicit rule.
 - [x] **`--yolo` cannot bypass the guard plugin.** Defaults fold `ask` into `allow` but never
      touch `deny` (`src/permission.ts:211-213`), and the guard refuses destructive commands
      in `beforeToolCall`, ahead of any approval.
 - [x] **Pinned toolchain.** Both workflows pin `bun-version: 1.3.14`, and `test/ci.test.ts:48-52`
      fails if the pin ever disagrees with the local `Bun.version`.
 - [x] **All three platforms in CI.** `ci.yml` runs the suite on ubuntu, macos, windows
      (required — the tools shell out to `rg`, git, and a platform shell).
 ---
 ## B. Bugs
 - [ ] **`src/ui/App.tsx:613` — formatting glitch.** The `}` closing the `try` is jammed onto the
      same line as the preceding statement:
      `push({ kind: 'info', text: await hooks.summarizeMemory() });          } catch (e) {`
      Cosmetic only, but it is the kind of blemish left by an unformatted edit and reads as a
      slip. **not yet tracked**
 - [ ] **`.github/workflows/release.yml` — the `dry_run` input is dead.** `workflow_dispatch`
      declares `inputs.dry_run` (default `true`) but no step ever reads it. Nothing consults the
      value, so `dry_run=false` changes nothing, and because the `publish` job gates on
      `startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags/v')`, a manual run can never publish regardless of the
      input. Either wire the input into the `publish` `if`, or delete it and let the tag-only
      gate be the whole story. **not yet tracked**
 - [ ] **`README.md` says "Nineteen built-in tools" — it is now twenty.** `git_commit_message`
      (shipped in beta.5 via `src/commit.ts` + `cli.tsx:281`) is a built-in tool, and
      `TOOL_SETS.git` carries it (`src/tools-git.ts:189`). The count is one short;
      `docs/tools.md` already says "twenty" (line 63), so README is the stale one.
      **not yet tracked**
 ---
 ## C. Gaps / not implemented (official — tracked in TODO.md or ROADMAP.md)
 ### TODO.md "Now" — next up
 - [ ] **Summarize the pruned span.** Compaction drops messages and tells the model nothing, so a
      decision from earlier in the session can be contradicted. (TODO.md `## Now`, first item)
 - [ ] **A spend ceiling.** `maxSpendUsd` in config, warn at 80%, refuse the next turn at 100%,
      headless exits non-zero naming the ceiling. Nothing stops a looping headless run today.
      (TODO.md `## Now`)
 - [ ] **A cheaper model for subagents.** `subagentModel` in config; an `explore` subagent is
      search, not reasoning, and today pays the parent's per-token rate. (TODO.md `## Now`)
 - [ ] **Hot-reload an installed entry.** `/registry add` writes the file and says restart; the
      skill catalogue and guard chain are assembled at boot. (TODO.md `## Now`)
 ### TODO.md "Next"
 - [ ] **MCP without the schema tax.** Twenty MCP tools ≈ 2,750 tokens of schema per request;
      `toolSets` does not gate them. Plan: `mcp_list` / `mcp_inspect` / `mcp_call` meta-tools,
      prompt names servers not schemas. (TODO.md `## Next`; ROADMAP `## Next` + `## Later`)
 - [ ] **Custom commands from a file.** `.shiro/commands/*.md`, `$ARGUMENTS`, `$1`,
      `` !`cmd` `` shell substitution with the guard applied. (TODO.md `## Next`; ROADMAP `## Next`)
 - [ ] **Derive the tool-name lists.** `TOOL_SETS` and `MUTATING_TOOLS` are hand-maintained; a
      tool added to one and forgotten in the other is a silently ungated write. (TODO.md
      `## Next`; ROADMAP `## Next` "Derived tool metadata")
 - [ ] **Subagent parallelism.** Two independent searches run sequentially; the panel already
      renders several agents, the loop does not fan out. (TODO.md `## Next`; ROADMAP `## Later`)
 - [ ] **Undo a turn.** `/resume` restores a session but nothing walks one step back; `bash`
      effects cannot be snapshotted and the docs would say so. (TODO.md `## Next`; ROADMAP `## Next`)
 ### ROADMAP "Next" / "Later" — tracked, not yet scheduled in TODO.cpp-equivalent detail
 - [ ] **Registry trust.** No signatures; `registryUrl` is the whole trust decision. Publisher
      keys + pinned digest per entry. (ROADMAP `## Next`; also TODO.md Known rough edges)
 - [ ] **Lossless-enough compaction** — same work as "Summarize the pruned span". (ROADMAP `## Next`)
 - [ ] **Session branching**, **structured diff review**, **plugin code from disk** (needs a
      sandbox story), **prompt caching** (stable prefix vs volatile suffix), **external hooks**
      (needs a trust story), **OS-level sandboxing** (Seatbelt/Landlock/Windows equivalent).
      (ROADMAP `## Later`)
 - [ ] **Deliberately declined** (do not "fix"): web UI, auto-commit, vector search, tool-call
      retries, client/server split, LSP integration — all recorded in ROADMAP `## Declined`.
 ---
 ## D. Documentation drift (untracked)
 - [ ] **README tool count** — see Bug B.3. **not yet tracked**
 - [ ] **TODO.md "Done" is missing the rest of beta.5.** "Kept for one release, then deleted",
      but of the beta.5 batch (more tools incl. `git_branch`/`git_commit_message`/
      `move_file`/`delete_file`, the `protect` plugin, `security`/`perf`/`migrate` skills, the
      MCP panel wizard, the UI refinements, the farewell message) only "a dead provider item
      ends the turn" was checked off. Either the Done list gets the beta.5 items or it gets
      rotated, as the file's own rule says. **not yet tracked**
 - [ ] **`docs/registry.md` and `docs/headless.md`** are referenced by the README table and both
      exist — verified clean, no action.
 ---
 ## E. Test-coverage gaps
 - [ ] **`src/cli.tsx` (562 lines) has no unit test.** Nothing in `test/` imports it. Its flag
      parsing (`-p`, `--json`, `--yolo`, `--resume`, provider setup, `/provider` wiring) is
      exercised only by hand or through `runHeadless` (`test/headless.test.ts`), which bypasses
      the argument surface. The largest module in `src/` outside the UI is the least tested one.
      **not yet tracked**
 - [ ] **`src/ui/Onboard.tsx` has no test.** The provider on-boarding wizard is never rendered in
      the suite. **not yet tracked**
 - [ ] **`src/ui/PromptInput.tsx` has no test** — the `@` completion input is only covered
      indirectly through `App`. (`src/complete.ts` itself is well tested.) **not yet tracked**
 - [ ] **`src/ui/panel-bodies.ts` and `src/ui/buses.ts` have no direct tests.**
      **not yet tracked**
 - [ ] **29 `as any` casts across 17 test files.** The identical mock `usage` object
      (`{ inputTokens: {...}, outputTokens: {...} } as any`) is copied verbatim in 7+ UI test
      files — a shared typed fixture in `test/helpers.ts` would remove the repetition and the
      casts in one move. Production `src/` remains clean; this is test-only debt. **not yet tracked**
 ---
 ## F. Maintenance debt
 - [ ] **Pricing table is hand-entered with no source note or date** — `src/pricing.ts:8-22`.
      Rates drift; `estimateTokens` also divides JSON length by four (session.ts:90), which is
      fine as a compaction threshold but misleads in `/cost`. Both tracked in TODO.md
      `## Maintenance`.
 - [ ] **`listPaths` walks up to 5000 files once per session** — fine for a repo, wasteful in a
      monorepo, never notices a file created after the first `@`. Tracked in TODO.md.
 - [ ] **`MUTATING_TOOLS` (tools.ts:799-807) is only used by tests and docs.** The runtime gate
      is `DEFAULT_PERMISSIONS` + the unknown-tool `ask` default. Tracked in TODO.md — either
      delete it or make `DEFAULT_PERMISSIONS` derive from it.
 - [ ] **CI actions are about to leave Node 20.** The last release run annotated that actions on
      Node 20 are being forced onto Node 24. `actions/checkout@v4`, `setup-bun@v2`,
      `upload-artifact@v4`, `download-artifact@v4` still work, but the major-version bumps will
      become the silent fix; watch for the annotation to turn red. **not yet tracked**
 - [ ] **Oversized modules.** `src/ui/App.tsx` (863), `src/tools.ts` (717), `src/cli.tsx` (562),
      `src/session.ts` (500), `src/ui/Panels.tsx` (398). All of them grew past a comfortable
      review size during the beta.5 batch. Not a bug — a "who reads 863 lines" concern.
      **not yet tracked**
 ---
 ## G. Known rough edges (tracked in TODO.md, reproduced here for the record)
 - [x] `/clear` wipes terminal scrollback (escape sequence takes earlier history with it).
 - [x] Memory has no conflict resolution; two contradictory notes both inject.
 - [x] Windows `cmd /c` vs `bash -lc` — the prompt names the platform, does not translate.
 - [x] An unknown name in `toolSets` is dropped silently — reads as "that set is off".
 - [x] Permission rules gate the call, not what it does — no OS sandbox around the shell.
 - [x] The reasoning panel is per-turn, not per-step.
 - [x] An interrupted command's effects are unknown, and the model is told so.
 - [x] `@` completion lists files, not directories.
 - [x] An installed skill is a stranger's words in the system prompt; nothing re-checks it later.
 - [x] A registry index is trusted for its contents, not its authorship.

 # Changelog
 All notable changes to this project are documented here. The format follows
 [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/) and the project adheres to
 [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
 ## [1.0.0]
 The first stable release. Cost control, a larger tool and skill surface, custom slash
 commands, auto-loaded extensions, and a redesigned welcome interface, on top of the beta
 line's agent loop, approval model, and safety guarantees.
 ### Added
 - **Spend ceiling** ("maxSpendUsd" in config). Checked before each turn: past the limit the
  model is never called, the turn is refused naming the ceiling, headless exits non-zero,
  and it warns once at 80% of the limit. Unpriced models cannot be measured, so the ceiling
  does not apply to them.
 - **Cheaper subagent model** ("subagentModel" in config). "explore" subagents — search, not
  reasoning — resolve against a configured cheaper model while "review" and "worker" keep the
  parent's. "/cost" reports subagent spend separately, priced against the subagent's model id.
 - **Twenty new built-in tools** (41 total) in a new "extra" tool set, across four families:
  - line edits: insert_lines, delete_lines, replace_lines, append_file, prepend_file, count_lines
  - filesystem: tree, file_info, find_files, recent_files, changed_files
  - git (read-only, argv-spawned): git_log_file, git_diff_commits, git_show_file, git_current_branch, git_changed_in_ref
  - code and environment: find_symbol, json_query, outline, read_symbol, env_info, count_tokens
 - **Twenty new bundled skills** (29 total), including plan, docs, api-design, ci-cd, db,
  docker, frontend, git-workflow, logging, optimize-sql, release, accessibility, data, i18n,
  deps, onboarding, ux-copy, readme, incident, perf-frontend.
 - **Ten new plugins**, all data. Safety refusals on by default — no-force-push, no-net-pipe,
  no-root, no-env-write — and opt-in workflow plugins — no-main-commit, no-git-config,
  confirm-delete, conventional-commit, tests-first, small-diffs.
 - **Custom slash commands** from Markdown files in ".shiro/commands/" and
  "~/.shiro-neko/commands/", with frontmatter "description"/"agent", "$ARGUMENTS" and
  positional "$1", and shell substitution passed through the guard. A custom command can
  never shadow a built-in.
 - **Auto-loaded external extensions** from "~/.shiro-neko/{skills,tools,plugins}" and
  ".shiro/{skills,tools,plugins}". All data, never code: tools are bounded manifests (a shell
  template through the guard, an HTTPS fetch, or a workspace read), plugins are refusal
  manifests. Malformed files are reported and skipped, never fatal.
 ### Changed
 - **Skills now live as Markdown files** in "src/skills-md/", embedded into the compiled binary
  by Bun text imports, replacing the previous TypeScript string constants. A format test
  enforces that each parses with valid frontmatter and a real body. The eleven pre-existing
  skills were also deepened.
 - **Welcome interface redesigned** into a structured dashboard: a session banner, a grouped
  environment panel with attention-worthy facts coloured out of the quiet layer, and a meta
  bar. The prompt input sits in a two-tone box with the agent and model row inside it and a
  split footer beneath.
 - **System prompt advanced** with a discrete failure-recovery loop, a delegation policy, and
  compaction awareness.
 ### Fixed
 - **Release workflow "dry_run" input is now honoured.** A manual dispatch publishes only when
  it is unchecked; tag pushes always publish. Previously the input was declared but never read,
  so a manual run could never publish regardless of its value.
 - **Documentation drift** corrected across the tool count, the bundled-skill count, the plugin
  defaults, and the README quickstart.
 ## [0.1.0-beta.5]
 - A dead provider item no longer ends the turn: a 404 naming a missing item rewrites the
  history inline and retries once.
 - More tools (git_commit_message, git_branch, move_file, delete_file), the "protect" plugin,
  the security/perf/migrate skills, the "/mcp add" wizard, and the farewell message.
 ## [0.1.0-beta.4]
 - Compaction no longer stops the loop, and is bounded to keep the widest recent tool tail.
 - The external registry for skills and plugins.
 - Permission rules matched per command and path, replacing the per-tool list.
 - apply_patch, web_fetch, and writable worker subagents.
 ## [0.1.0-beta.3]
 - Fourteen built-in tools with gateable tool sets.
 - Streaming reasoning display, the mid-turn prompt queue, multi_edit, list_dir, read-only git
  tools, batch reads, @file completion, and interruptible commands.
 ## [0.1.0-beta.1]
 - The core agent loop with SDK-enforced tool approvals, endpoint fallback, and retries.
 - The initial tool set, Ink interface, agent variants, skills, plugins, per-project memory,
  session persistence, subagents, MCP, and five-platform builds.

 ### 0.1.0-beta.5
 **A dead provider item no longer ends the turn.** An `item_reference` resolves only while the
 provider still stores that item, so a resumed session — or one that fell back to `/v1/responses`
 mid-turn — could fail with 404 "Item with id 'msg_...' not found" on every attempt, since every
 retry sent the same reference. Compaction now strips every provider `itemId` from what it sends,
 and a 404 naming a missing item rewrites the session's history inline and runs the request again,
 once per turn and only before any output has been delivered.
 **Interface.** Context shows the elapsed working time and a compaction warning as the threshold
 approaches, diff lines are numbered, markdown task lists render, the prompt edits by word and
 `ctrl-d` deletes to the end of line, and a farewell tells you how to resume the session.
 **More tools.** `git_commit_message` writes a commit message from the staged diff and the
 repository's own recent subjects, in one nested model call — it never commits, so it needs no
 approval. `move_file` and `delete_file` fill the gap that made every rename a write-then-delete
 pair: both are gated, `move_file` matches permission rules at both ends, and `delete_file`
 refuses a directory because removing a tree is what the guard blocks in `bash`. `git_branch`
 lists branches with the current one marked.
 **More plugins.** `protect` refuses writes to `.git`, lockfiles, `node_modules`, vendored code,
 and build output — files a tool owns rather than a person, where an edit leaves a repository
 that looks fine and behaves wrongly. It ships on, alongside `guard` and `secrets`, and every
 path-based guard now shares one helper that understands where each write tool keeps its paths.
 **More skills.** `security` (trust boundaries, then injection, authorisation, traversal, SSRF),
 `perf` (measure, locate, one change, stop at a target), and `migrate` (changelog first, every
 call site before one edit, never hand-merge a lockfile) join the bundled set.
 **The MCP panel.** `/mcp add` walks through a local or remote server — kind, name, command and
 arguments or URL and headers — validating the name against the `mcp__<server>__<tool>`
 namespace as it is typed rather than failing at connect. `/mcp` lists what is configured with
 each server's live tool count or its connection error, and `/mcp remove` takes one out. All
 three write `config.json` directly; a new server connects on the next start, because
 connecting mid-turn would change the tool list under a running request.
 ### 1.0.0
 The first stable release. The beta line's architecture held; this release rounds out cost
 control, extensibility, and the interface, and hardens the test suite to match.
 **Cost control.** Two halves of one problem, both shipped. A **spend ceiling** (`maxSpendUsd`)
 checks before each turn: past the limit the model is never called, the turn is refused naming
 the ceiling, headless exits non-zero, and it warns once at 80%. A **cheaper subagent model**
 (`subagentModel`) runs `explore` — which is search, not reasoning — on a less expensive model
 while `review` and `worker` keep the parent's; `/cost` reports subagent spend as its own line,
 priced against the subagent's model id.
 **Tools: 41 built-in.** Twenty new tools in four families, all path-jailed and ignore-aware,
 in a new `extra` tool set: precise line edits (`insert_lines`, `delete_lines`, `replace_lines`,
 `append_file`, `prepend_file`, `count_lines`), filesystem navigation (`tree`, `file_info`,
 `find_files`, `recent_files`, `changed_files`), read-only git extensions (`git_log_file`,
 `git_diff_commits`, `git_show_file`, `git_current_branch`, `git_changed_in_ref`), and code and
 environment reads (`find_symbol`, `json_query`, `outline`, `read_symbol`, `env_info`,
 `count_tokens`). Every git call still spawns the binary with a fixed argv, never a shell.
 **Skills: 29 bundled, as Markdown.** The catalogue grew from nine to twenty-nine and every
 skill moved to a single source of truth: a Markdown file in `src/skills-md/`, frontmatter and
 body, embedded into the compiled binary by Bun text imports. A format test enforces that each
 one parses and carries a real body.
 **Plugins: 10 more, all data.** Six narrow safety refusals (force push, pipe-to-shell, root
 elevation, env credential writes, main-branch commits, git config changes) and three advisory
 plugins (conventional commits, tests-first, small diffs) plus a delete guard for ambiguous
 paths. The safety refusals are on by default for the same reason the guard is; the opinionated
 ones are opt-in.
 **Custom slash commands.** A Markdown file in `.shiro/commands/` or `~/.shiro-neko/commands/`
 becomes a slash command, with frontmatter `description`/`agent`, `$ARGUMENTS` and `$1`
 positionals, and `` !`cmd` `` substitution passed through the guard. A custom command can never
 shadow a built-in.
 **Auto-loaded extensions.** External skills, tools, and plugins load from
 `~/.shiro-neko/<kind>/` and `.shiro/<kind>/` — all data, never code. An external tool is a
 bounded manifest (a shell template through the guard, an HTTPS fetch, or a workspace file
 read); an external plugin is a refusal manifest. A malformed file is reported and skipped,
 never fatal.
 **Interface.** The welcome screen is a structured dashboard — a session banner, a grouped
 environment panel with attention-worthy facts lifted out of the quiet layer, and a meta bar —
 replacing a wall of dim text. The input sits in an OpenCode-style two-tone box with the
 agent·model row inside it and a split footer beneath.

 # Custom slash commands
 A Markdown file becomes a slash command. Write the prompt once, run it with `/name` any time.
 Two directories are scanned, the project shadowing the user by name:
 | Origin | Directory |
 |---|---|
 | user | `~/.shiro-neko/commands/*.md` |
 | project | `.shiro/commands/*.md` |
 The filename is the command: `.shiro/commands/review-diff.md` becomes `/review-diff`. Names are
 letters, digits, dashes, and underscores; anything else is skipped. A custom command can never
 shadow a built-in — `/cost` always runs the built-in `/cost`.
 ## Format
 ```markdown
 ---
 description: Review the staged diff for defects
 agent: review
 ---
 Review the staged changes. For each finding give file, line, what breaks, and the fix.
 ```
 Frontmatter is optional but useful:
 - **`description`** — the one line shown in the `/` menu. Without it the first body line is used.
 - **`agent`** — run this command under a specific agent variant (`default`, `quick`, `deep`,
  `plan`, `review`). The variant is restored afterwards, so one command does not leak its agent
  into the rest of the session.
 Everything after the frontmatter fence is the prompt. A file with an empty body is skipped, as
 is one that fails to parse.
 ## Arguments
 The body is a template, expanded against whatever you type after the command:
 - `$ARGUMENTS` — the whole argument string.
 - `$1`, `$2`, … — positional arguments. A missing positional expands to nothing.
 ```markdown
 Compare $1 against $2 and report the differences. Context: $ARGUMENTS
 ```
 `/compare src/a.ts src/b.ts` sends `Compare src/a.ts against src/b.ts … Context: src/a.ts src/b.ts`.
 ## Shell substitution
 A `` !`command` `` inline runs the shell command and inlines its output before the prompt is
 sent:
 ```markdown
 Review this diff:
 !`git diff --staged`
 ```
 Every substitution runs through the **guard** before executing, exactly as a direct `bash` call
 is — so a custom command cannot smuggle a destructive command past you. A substitution that
 exits non-zero, or one the guard refuses, fails the command with the reason named.
 ## When to write one
 - A prompt you find yourself retyping: a review shape, a release checklist, a project-specific
  "how we test".
 - A prompt that should pin an agent: a read-only review command that always runs under `review`.
 - Project conventions the whole team should share: commit `.shiro/commands/` so everyone gets

 # Extensions: auto-loaded skills, tools, and plugins
 External extensions load automatically from two directories on every start, the project
 shadowing the user by name:
 | Origin | Directories |
 |---|---|
 | user | `~/.shiro-neko/skills` `~/.shiro-neko/tools` `~/.shiro-neko/plugins` |
 | project | `.shiro/skills` `.shiro/tools` `.shiro/plugins` |
 Drop a file in and it is live on the next start. No registry, no install command, no restart
 of anything but the CLI itself.
 **Everything here is data, never code.** That is the same rule the [registry](registry.md)
 enforces, and it is the whole security model. An external extension can add instructions, a
 bounded tool, or a refusal rule — it cannot run arbitrary code, so it cannot read every file
 the agent can read or lie about what it blocks. A malformed file is reported on the welcome
 dashboard and skipped, never fatal.
 ## Skills
 A skill is a Markdown file with frontmatter, exactly like a bundled one:
 ```markdown
 ---
 name: deploy
 description: Ship a release. Use when asked to deploy or cut a release.
 ---
 # Deploy
 1. Confirm the tests pass. Do not deploy on a red suite.
 2. Tag with the version from src/version.ts, not by hand.
 ```
 Skills merge by name with the precedence `builtin < registry < user < project`, so your own
 `debug.md` overrides the bundled `debug`. See [skills](skills.md) for the full format.
 ## Tools
 A tool is a JSON manifest describing one bounded operation. Three kinds, each with a ceiling
 on what it can do:
 ```json
 {
  "name": "recent-changes",
  "description": "List the ten most recently changed files",
  "kind": "shell",
  "command": "git diff --name-only HEAD~10",
  "autoApprove": true
 }
 ```
 | Field | Meaning |
 |---|---|
 | `name` | The tool name the model calls. Letters, digits, dashes, underscores. |
 | `description` | What the model reads to decide when to use it. |
 | `kind` | `shell`, `http`, or `read`. |
 | `command` | For `shell`: the template to run, with an optional `{arg}` placeholder. |
 | `url` | For `http`: the URL to fetch, with an optional `{arg}` placeholder. HTTPS only. |
 | `path` | For `read`: the workspace file to return, with an optional `{arg}` placeholder. |
 | `autoApprove` | `false` to require approval before running. Default `true`. |
 The model passes a single optional `arg` string, substituted into `{arg}`.
 **The limits are the point.** A `shell` tool runs a fixed template through the **guard** and
 the platform shell — the same chain a built-in `bash` call goes through, so an installed tool
 cannot do what the agent itself may not. An `http` tool fetches one HTTPS URL. A `read` tool
 returns one workspace file, jailed to the workspace. None of them executes code from the
 manifest.
 ## Plugins
 A plugin is a refusal manifest — the same shape the registry installs — a name, an optional
 prompt appendix, and deny rules matched against tool input:
 ```json
 {
  "name": "no-prod-config",
  "description": "refuses to edit production config",
  "appendix": "Production config is changed by hand, never by the agent.",
  "deny": [
    { "tools": ["write_file", "edit_file"], "pathPattern": "config/production", "reason": "production config is hand-edited" },
    { "tools": ["bash"], "commandPattern": "kubectl\\s+apply", "reason": "deploys to the cluster" }
  ]
 }
 ```
 A rule names the tools it covers and either a `pathPattern` (matched against the path a file
 tool carries) or a `commandPattern` (matched against a `bash` command), both as case-insensitive
 regexes, plus the `reason` handed to the model when it blocks. Patterns are validated on load;
 an invalid regex is a reported error, not a crash.
 Refusal plugins compose with the built-in [plugins](plugins.md) — the first block wins.
 ## Relationship to the registry
 The [registry](registry.md) fetches the same kinds of files over HTTPS with a confirmation
 step. Auto-load is for your own and your project's files, which need no confirmation because
 you wrote them. The two mechanisms share the loaders and the safety model; they differ only in
 where the file comes from.

 # MCP
 Model Context Protocol servers contribute tools to the agent. Two transports: a local
 command over stdio, and a remote http or sse endpoint.
 ## Adding one from the prompt
 ```
 /mcp              list what is configured, with the tool count each contributed
 /mcp add          wizard: local or remote, then the fields that kind needs
 /mcp remove <name>
 ```
 `/mcp add` asks for the kind first, because the two need different fields — a command and
 its arguments against a URL and its headers — and a single form with half of it inapplicable
 is worse than two short ones.
 ```
 Add an MCP server
 none configured yet
 > local    a command on this machine, over stdio
  remote   an http or sse endpoint
 ```
 The name is validated as it is typed. Tools register as `mcp__<server>__<tool>`, so a name
 with a space or a double underscore produces a tool the model cannot address and two servers
 whose namespaces can collide — both are refused in place rather than at connect time. A name
 already in the config is refused too.
 For a local server the wizard then asks for the command and its arguments; arguments split on
 spaces and keep quoted runs together, so `--root "/home/my folder"` arrives as one argument.
 For a remote one it asks for the URL — http or https only — and optional headers as
 `KEY: value, OTHER: value`.
 Both write straight to `config.json` and merge with whatever is already there. **A new server
 connects on the next start**, not mid-session: connecting during a turn would change the tool
 list under a request that is already running.
 `/mcp` shows the state of each configured server, which is what makes a typo visible:
 ```
 mcp servers
 /mcp add to add one
 - `filesystem` (local) - 11 tools
  npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem .
 - `api` (remote) - failed: fetch failed
  https://example.com/mcp
 configured in /home/you/.shiro-neko/config.json
 ```
 ## The config file
 The wizard writes this; it is equally editable by hand.
 ```json
 {
  "mcpServers": {
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "."]

 | `args` | local | its arguments |
 | `env` | local | extra environment variables |
 | `cwd` | local | working directory |
 | `url` | remote | the MCP endpoint |
 | `type` | remote | `http` (default) or `sse` |
 | `headers` | remote | sent with every request, for auth |
 `--no-mcp` skips every server for one run, which is the first thing to try when the agent is
 behaving oddly and a server is in play.
 [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) servers contribute tools. Configure
 them in `~/.shiro-neko/config.json` and they appear alongside the builtins.
 ## Configuration
 Everything the wizard writes is equally editable by hand, and a hand-written entry that
 `/mcp add` would have rejected still connects — the validation is on the input path, not a
 schema check at load.

 ### `protect` (default on)
 Refuses writes to files whose contents belong to a tool rather than to anyone editing them by
 hand. This is a different failure from a secret: the repository looks fine and behaves wrongly,
 and the breakage surfaces somewhere else entirely.
 | Refused | Why |
 |---|---|
 | `.git/**` | git's own object store |
 | `bun.lock`, `package-lock.json`, `pnpm-lock.yaml`, `yarn.lock`, `Cargo.lock`, `go.sum`, `poetry.lock`, `uv.lock`, `composer.lock`, `Gemfile.lock` | the package manager owns it |

 | `.venv/**`, `.tox/**`, `.mypy_cache/**`, `.ruff_cache/**`, `.turbo/**` | tool caches |
 ```
 refusing to write bun.lock (a lockfile the package manager owns). Regenerate it with the
 tool that owns it rather than editing it.
 ```
 The message says what to do instead, which matters: a model told only "no" writes the same
 content somewhere else. A lockfile is regenerated by `bun install`; build output is regenerated
 by the build.
 Both separators match, so `node_modules\react\index.js` is refused on Windows too. Lookalike
 names are not: `src/gitignore-parser.ts`, `docs/dist-layout.md`, and `distributed/queue.ts` all
 write normally.
 ### `time` (default on)
 Adds `current_time`, returning ISO 8601 plus the local string. Auto-approved; it reads
 nothing. Useful because models are confidently wrong about the date.
 ### The narrow safety refusals (default on)
 Six small plugins, each blocking one irreversible class of mistake. They are on by default for
 the same reason the guard is: a safety check you have to opt into is not one. Each is data — a
 name, a pattern list, and a refusal message — matched against the `bash` command string (or, for
 `confirm-delete`, the path a `delete_file` carries).
 | Plugin | Refuses | Why |
 |---|---|---|
 | `no-force-push` | `git push --force`, `--force-with-lease`, `-f`, `+<ref>` | rewrites remote history |
 | `no-net-pipe` | `curl … \| sh`, `wget … \| node`, `iex (iwr …)` | executes a download unseen |
 | `no-root` | `sudo …`, elevated `runas` / `Start-Process -Verb RunAs` | nothing the agent does should need root |
 | `no-env-write` | `export …KEY/TOKEN/SECRET/PASSWORD=…` | writes a credential into the environment |
 | `no-main-commit` | `git commit`/`git merge` naming `main`/`master` | touches the default branch directly |
 | `no-git-config` | `git config --global`, identity/runner keys | changes how git identifies or runs |
 Normal commands pass: `git push origin feature`, `npm test`, `export NODE_ENV=production`. The
 patterns target the irreversible act, not the command family.
 ### The advisory plugins (opt in)
 Three plugins carry only a prompt appendix — no blocking hook — so they shape behaviour without
 ever refusing a call. Enable them in config when you want the nudge:
 | Plugin | Advises |
 |---|---|
 | `conventional-commit` | commit subjects as `type(scope): summary`, e.g. `fix(auth): reject expired tokens` |
 | `tests-first` | for a bug, pin it with a failing test before fixing; watch it fail, then pass |
 | `small-diffs` | one change does one thing; split a diff that is really two |
 ```json
 { "plugins": ["guard", "secrets", "protect", "time", "conventional-commit", "small-diffs"] }
 ```
 ### `confirm-delete` (opt in)
 Refuses `delete_file` calls whose path is broad or ambiguous — a wildcard, a trailing slash, or
 an empty path — so a delete is always one explicit file:
 ```
 refusing to delete "src/*" (ambiguous or broad). Delete one explicit file.
 ```
 ### `bell` (opt in)
 Writes `\u0007` to stderr when a turn ends. Off by default — a bell after every turn is
 intrusive, but it is genuinely useful when a turn takes minutes.

 ## The `extra` set
 Twenty tools across four families, on by default. Each follows the same rules as the core
 tools: writes are jailed to the workspace, reads honour `.gitignore`, and every git call spawns
 the binary with a fixed argument array, never a shell string.
 ### Line edits
 Precise edits by line number, for changes that need no full-file rewrite and no exact-string
 match. All refuse a path outside the workspace.
 | Tool | Does |
 |---|---|
 | `insert_lines` | Insert a block before a 1-based line, pushing the rest down. One past the end appends. |
 | `delete_lines` | Delete an inclusive line range. Refuses the whole file — that is `delete_file`'s job. |
 | `replace_lines` | Replace an inclusive line range with new text in one write. |
 | `append_file` | Add text to the end of a file. |
 | `prepend_file` | Add text to the top of a file, e.g. a header or import block. |
 | `count_lines` | Line count for one file, or per file across a glob. A size read before opening something large. |
 ### Filesystem
 | Tool | Does |
 |---|---|
 | `tree` | Indented directory tree, ignore-aware, directories first. A broad shape faster to scan than `list_dir`. |
 | `file_info` | Size, line count, modified time, text-or-binary for one file. |
 | `find_files` | Files whose *name* contains a substring (not a glob), e.g. `auth`. |
 | `recent_files` | Files modified most recently, newest first. Find what a tool just touched. |
 | `changed_files` | The working-tree delta git reports (modified, staged, untracked). |
 ### Git extensions (read-only)
 Spawned with a fixed argv, so they are auto-approved like the core git tools.
 | Tool | Does |
 |---|---|
 | `git_log_file` | Commits that touched one file, newest first, with hash, date, subject. |
 | `git_diff_commits` | Diff between two refs, optionally limited to one path. |
 | `git_show_file` | A file's contents at a ref, e.g. `auth.ts` at `HEAD~3`. |
 | `git_current_branch` | The current branch with its upstream and ahead/behind count. |
 | `git_changed_in_ref` | Files changed between a ref and the working tree, names only. |
 ### Code and environment
 | Tool | Does |
 |---|---|
 | `find_symbol` | Where a function, class, or type is *defined* across JS/TS, Python, Go, Rust. Matches declarations, not uses. |
 | `json_query` | One value from a JSON file by dotted path (`scripts.build`), instead of reading it whole. |
 | `outline` | Top-level declarations of a source file as a structural map. Read before opening a large file. |

 New files and full rewrites only. Creates parent directories.
 A rewrite that collapses whitespace is flagged in the result: similar character count,
 a fraction of the lines. A model writing a large file under output pressure squeezes
 newlines and indentation before it cuts markup — the bytes survive, the layout does not —
 so the result names the collapse and the turn fixes it in place:

 Renames or relocates one file, creating the target directory. Refuses a missing source and an
 occupied target, so a rename cannot silently overwrite work. Permission rules match **both**
 ends, so denying `src/generated/*` catches a move that lands there as well as one that starts
 there.
 For a rename plus its callers in one atomic step, `apply_patch` is the better tool: it lands
 the move and the edits together or not at all.
 ### `delete_file`

 Deletes one file and reports its size. A directory is refused: removing a tree is exactly what

 ### `git_commit_message`
 Generates one commit message from the staged changes. The nested model call sees two
 things: the staged diff, and the fifteen most recent commit subjects, because a message
 that ignores the repository's established style reads as foreign however accurate it is.
 An oversized diff is truncated before it reaches the model.
 It never commits — it returns the message only, approval-free, because generating text
 cannot mutate anything. Running the commit stays on the gated `bash` path, where the
 user sees the message and the command together.

 is to stage, not to guess.

 ## Fix the cause
 Once you know the cause, fix that and nothing else. Do not tidy surrounding code in the
 same change — a bugfix diff should contain only the bug.
 Write a test that fails before the fix and passes after. If you cannot express the bug as
 a test, say why.
 ## After two failed attempts
 Stop. Re-read the error text literally, character by character. Check your assumption
 about which code is actually running: the wrong file, a stale build, a shadowed import,
 or a cached dependency accounts for most "impossible" bugs.

 # Code review
 Severity order. Do not lead with style.
 1. **Incorrect behaviour** — wrong result, wrong edge case, wrong state after failure.
 2. **Missing validation at trust boundaries** — user input, network responses, file contents,
   anything crossing a process line. Internal calls need no defensive checks.
 3. **Security** — injection, path traversal, secrets in logs or errors, missing authz.
 4. **Resource handling** — unclosed handles, unbounded growth, unawaited promises.
 5. **Clarity** — only when it will cause a future defect.
 ## For each finding
 State file and line, what breaks, and the change. Show the fix as code when it is short.
 Skip anything a formatter would fix. Skip preference. If a choice is defensible, leave it.
 ## Say when it is fine
 A review that invents problems to look thorough is worse than a short one. If the change
 is correct, say so and stop.
 ## Verify, do not assume
 Read the surrounding code before calling something a bug. A "missing" null check often
 exists one level up. Run the tests if that is what settles it.

 description: Restructure code without changing behaviour. Use when asked to refactor, clean up, extract, or reorganise.

 # Refactoring
 Behaviour must not change. That is the whole constraint.
 ## Establish the safety net first
 Run the existing tests and record that they pass. If the code has no tests, write one that
 pins current behaviour — including the ugly parts — before touching anything. Refactoring
 untested code is rewriting it.
 ## Then move in small steps
 One transformation at a time, tests green between each. Rename, then extract, then move —
 not all three in one edit. A large refactor that fails leaves you unable to tell which step
 broke it.
 ## What not to do
 - Do not fix bugs while refactoring. Note them, finish, fix separately.
 - Do not add abstraction for a single caller. Duplication beats a premature interface.
 - Do not widen the scope. The request was this code, not its neighbours.
 - Do not change public API unless asked; if it must change, say so first.
 ## Done means
 Tests pass, behaviour is identical, and the diff is smaller than the reader feared.

 # Testing
 A test earns its place by failing when the code is wrong.
 ## Match the project
 Read two existing test files first. Use their runner, their assertion style, their file
 layout, their naming. A test that looks foreign is a test nobody maintains.
 ## Test behaviour, not implementation
 Assert on what a caller observes. A test that reaches into private state breaks on every
 refactor and catches nothing.
 Cover: the normal case, the boundaries, and the failure. Failure cases catch more real
 defects than happy paths.
 ## Never do this
 - Do not assert what the code currently returns without knowing it is correct — that pins
  the bug.
 - Do not weaken an assertion to make a test pass. If it fails, either the code or the
  expectation is wrong; find out which.
 - Do not delete a failing test. It is telling you something.
 ## Flaky tests
 A test that passes alone and fails in a suite is a shared-state problem: a global, a
 temp directory, a port, an unawaited promise, or ordering. Find which, do not add a retry.
 ## Verify
 Run the test and watch it fail before the fix, pass after. A test you never saw fail is
 not known to work.

 # Verification
 A green test suite says the tests pass. It does not say the feature works.
 ## Run the artifact, not the source
 Build it and use it the way a user would:
 - **CLI** — build the binary and run it. Happy path, bad input, \`--help\`. Read the output.
 - **HTTP service** — start it and \`curl\` the endpoint. Check the status and the body.
 - **Library** — write a throwaway script that imports and calls the new code end to end.
 - **Script or job** — run it against real input and inspect what it produced.
 Delete the throwaway afterwards.
 ## What counts as evidence
 Command output you actually saw. Paste the relevant lines, not a summary of them.
 These are not evidence:
 - "The tests pass" for a change tests do not cover.
 - "The types check" for anything about runtime behaviour.
 - "It should work now" for anything at all.
 ## Check the failure path too
 Feed it the input you expect to be rejected and confirm it is rejected, with a message
 that says why. A feature that works only on correct input is half-built.
 ## Report what you did not verify
 Say plainly what you could not run and why: a missing credential, a service you cannot
 start, a platform you are not on. An honest gap is useful; a claim that hides one is not.
 ## When verification fails
 The defect is yours to fix in this turn. Do not report the task complete with a note that
 it did not work.

   rather than committing them.
 Stage the specific paths you changed. \`git add .\` is how unrelated work ends up in a
 commit that then has to be reverted whole.
 ## One commit, one reason

 renames a module cannot be reverted, cherry-picked, or bisected usefully.

 - A body explaining *why*, when the reason is not obvious from the diff. Wrap at 72.
 - No "as requested", no restating the diff line by line, no emoji unless the repo uses them.
 ## Do not
 - Do not \`--amend\` a commit that has been pushed. Write a new one.
 - Do not \`--no-verify\`. If a hook rejects the commit, the hook found something.
 - Do not \`git push\` unless asked, and never force-push without being asked explicitly.
 - Do not commit and then immediately fix it up with a second commit. Get it right, or say
  what is wrong.

 final state is what was intended.

 ---
 # Accessibility
 Accessibility is usability for everyone, including people using a keyboard, a screen reader, a
 magnifier, or a noisy display. Build it in, not on.
 ## Semantic HTML does the heavy lifting
 A `<button>`, `<a>`, `<input>`, `<nav>`, `<main>` carries behaviour and meaning for free
 that a `<div>` with a click handler does not. Reach for the native element first; add ARIA only
 when no native element fits. The first rule of ARIA is do not use ARIA if a native element exists.
 ## Keyboard is the baseline
 - Every interactive element is reachable and operable with Tab and Enter/Space alone.
 - A visible focus indicator on everything — never `outline: none` without a replacement.
 - Logical tab order following the visual order, and focus managed into and out of modals,
  menus, and dialogs (trapped while open, returned to the trigger on close).
 ## Screen readers hear structure
 - Headings in order (`h1` once, then down a level at a time) so the page has a navigable outline.
 - Every `<input>` has a `<label>`; every icon-only button has an accessible name; every image
  has alt text that conveys its point (or empty alt when it is purely decorative).
 - Dynamic changes announce themselves: a toast, an error, a loaded region uses a live region so
  it is heard, not just seen.
 ## Contrast and meaning
 Text meets 4.5:1 against its background (3:1 for large text). Colour is never the only carrier
 of meaning — pair it with an icon, a label, or a pattern. A red-only "error" is invisible to a
 colour-blind user.
 ## Test it the way it is used
 Tab through the whole flow. Turn on a screen reader and listen. Zoom to 200% and 400%. Run an
 automated checker for the mechanical half — then do the manual half it cannot cover, because
 most accessibility failures are not machine-detectable.

 description: Design or revise an HTTP or library API. Use when adding an endpoint, shaping request/response bodies, naming resources, or reviewing an API for consistency.
 ---
 # API design
 An API is a contract. Every choice is a promise you cannot take back without a major version.
 ## Resource before action
 Name things, not verbs. `POST /users` to create, not `POST /createUser`. The URL is the
 noun; the method is the verb. When you reach for a verb in the path, that is a sign the
 resource is missing — `POST /users/:id/deactivations` reads better than `/deactivateUser`
 when the operation has state of its own.
 ## Shape the body for the reader
 - Field names are `snake_case` or `camelCase`, picked once for the whole API. A body that
  mixes both is a body nobody documented.
 - Return the object, not a wrapper, unless the wrapper carries something: `{ "user": {...} }`
  only when there is also pagination, a cursor, or an error envelope.
 - Errors have a stable shape: a machine-readable `code`, a human `message`, and the field
  that failed. A client should never have to parse the message.
 ## Status codes mean something
 - `201` for a created resource, with the resource in the body.
 - `204` for success with nothing to return.
 - `400` for a body that failed validation, `401` unauthenticated, `403` authenticated but
  not allowed, `404` not found or not allowed to know, `409` a conflict with current state,
  `422` well-formed but semantically wrong.
 - Never `200` with an error in the body. A client checking only the status will treat it as
  success.
 ## Idempotency and safety
 GET, PUT, DELETE must be safe to retry: same request, same state. POST is not. If a client can
 double-submit, provide an idempotency key or a natural unique constraint, and say which.
 ## Version when you must, not before
 Add fields freely; removing or renaming is a break. If you are not yet committed, say so with
 a `beta` or `v0` marker rather than locking a shape you have not used. Document the contract
 you guarantee, not the implementation that happens to produce it.

 description: Write or repair CI/CD pipelines and workflow files. Use when a build fails in CI but not locally, when adding a workflow, or when caching, matrix, or deploy steps need design.
 ---
 # CI/CD
 CI is a second machine that does not have your setup. "Works on my machine" means the pipeline
 is missing something your machine has.
 ## Reproduce the environment, not the symptom
 When CI fails and local passes, the difference is the environment: the toolchain version, an
 uncommitted file, a cache, an env var, the OS. Diff those before touching the code. Read the
 failing log literally — the first error, not the last, which is usually a downstream echo.
 ## Pin everything that can move
 - Toolchain versions (`node`, `bun`, `python`), action versions, base images. `latest`
  is a build that breaks on a day you did nothing.
 - Lockfiles go in the repo and the install respects them (`--frozen-lockfile`, `ci`). An
  install that re-resolves in CI is a different build from the one you tested.
 ## Cache the expensive, deterministic part
 Dependencies are the cache; build output usually is not. Key the cache on the lockfile hash so
 a changed dependency invalidates it. A cache that is too broad serves stale artifacts; too
 narrow saves nothing.
 ## Fail fast, in the right order
 Cheap checks first: lint and typecheck before the test matrix, tests before the deploy. A
 pipeline that deploys before it verifies publishes the bug it was built to catch.
 ## Secrets and deploys
 Secrets live in the CI secret store, never in the file, and are masked in logs. A deploy step
 is gated: on a tag, on a protected branch, on a manual approval — never on every push. Assume
 every log line is public and write the pipeline accordingly.

 Never commit unless the user asked. If it is unclear whether they did, ask. A commit is a
 durable statement about shared history, not a save-point.
 ## Look before you stage
 `git_status` and `git_diff` first — read the whole diff you are about to commit. You are
 looking for three things:
 1. **Changes that are not yours.** Another agent or the user may share this worktree, and

 3. **Your own accidents:** debug prints, commented-out code, a stray `TODO`, a file you
   opened and saved by mistake. Revert them before staging, not in a follow-up commit.
 Stage the specific paths you changed. `git add .` is how unrelated work ends up in a

 turns a corrupt record into a clear rejection; skipping it turns the same record into a wrong
 answer three layers later. Reject loudly, with the record and the reason — never coerce and
 carry on.
 ## Keep the raw
 Store the untransformed input alongside the derived. When a transform turns out to be wrong,
 the raw lets you recompute; without it, the information is gone. Derived data is rebuildable;
 source data is not.
 ## Transformations are pure and tested
 A transform takes input and returns output with no hidden state, so it can be tested on a
 fixture and re-run safely. Test the edge cases that actually occur in data: the empty field,
 the wrong type, the unexpected null, the duplicate, the encoding that is not UTF-8.
 ## Duplicates, nulls, and ranges are the usual corruption
 Check for: unexpected duplicates on a key, nulls where a value is required, values outside a
 sane range (a negative age, a date in the future), and referential breaks (an id pointing at
 nothing). These four catch most real-world data problems before they reach a report.
 ## Idempotent pipelines
 A step that can be re-run without duplicating or corrupting its output is a step you can retry
 after a failure. Key on a stable id and upsert rather than blind-insert. A pipeline you cannot
 safely re-run is a pipeline you will one day have to fix by hand at 2am.

 # Databases
 The schema is the hardest thing to change in the whole system. Design it for the queries, not
 the object model.
 ## Keys and constraints are the real schema
 - Every table has a primary key; prefer a surrogate `id` unless a natural key is truly stable.
 - Foreign keys and `NOT NULL` are not optional decoration — they are the constraints that stop
  bad data at the door instead of in application code six months later.
 - Unique constraints belong on the thing that must be unique (email, slug), enforced by the
  database, not by a check-then-insert that races.
 ## Migrations are one-way and additive where possible
 - Never edit a migration that has run anywhere. Add a new one.
 - Destructive changes (drop column, rename, change type) are two migrations: add the new shape,
  deploy code that writes both, then remove the old in a later release. A single migration that
  renames a column breaks every old copy of the app still running.
 - Test a migration against real data volume. `ALTER` on ten rows is instant; on ten million it
  locks the table.
 ## Indexes follow the queries
 Index the columns you filter and join on, in the order the query uses them. A composite index
 `(a, b)` serves `WHERE a` and `WHERE a, b` but not `WHERE b` alone. Read the query plan
 (`EXPLAIN`) before adding one — a guess is an index that costs writes and serves nothing.
 ## The N+1 is the default bug
 A query per row in a loop is the most common database performance defect. Fetch the set with a
 join or a batched `WHERE id IN (...)`. If a page does one query per item, that is the fix
 before any caching.

 description: Track down a bug whose cause is not obvious. Use when a test fails for unclear reasons, behaviour differs between environments, or an earlier fix did not hold.
 ---
 # Debugging
 Do not guess. A guess that happens to work leaves the real cause in place, and it will
 fire again — usually in production, usually at a worse time.
 ## Reproduce first
 Find the smallest command that shows the failure and record it with `remember`. If you
 cannot reproduce it, say so and ask what the user did differently — do not proceed on a
 hypothesis you cannot test.
 Shrink the reproduction until it is minimal: one input, one call, one assertion. Every
 moving part you leave in is a place the bug can hide. A reproduction that takes thirty
 steps will not get run often enough to confirm the fix.
 ## Three hypotheses, then evidence
 Write down at least three causes that would produce this exact symptom — not "the code is
 wrong" but specific mechanisms: "the offset is off by one when the page is empty", "the
 cache is read before the write lands". Rank them by how cheap they are to disprove, then
 disprove them in that order. State which one you are testing before you test it.
 Evidence means observed output: a log line, a failing assertion, a value printed at the
 point of failure. "It should be X" is not evidence. When the evidence contradicts your
 favoured hypothesis, the hypothesis is wrong — do not explain the evidence away.
 ## Localise before you fix
 Assert the value at each boundary until one is wrong. The bug lives between the last
 boundary where the value is right and the first where it is wrong. Fixing before you have
 that bracket means editing the wrong place and learning nothing.
 ## Bisect when the space is large
 - Recent regression: `git bisect` or read what changed last. The bug arrived in a commit;
  find which one.
 - Unclear layer: assert the value at each boundary until one is wrong.
 - Intermittent: run it in a loop and capture the failing case with full logging. Do not
  reason about a race abstractly — make it happen on demand, then it is no longer
  intermittent.
 ## Fix the cause, not the symptom
 Once you know the cause, fix that and nothing else. Do not tidy surrounding code in the
 same change — a bugfix diff should contain only the bug, so it can be reverted whole if it
 is wrong.
 Write a test that fails before the fix and passes after. Watch it fail first; a test you
 never saw fail proves nothing. If you cannot express the bug as a test, say why — and say
 what you ran instead to confirm the fix.
 ## After two failed attempts
 Stop. Re-read the error text literally, character by character — most "impossible" bugs
 are a misread message. Then check your assumption about which code is actually running:
 the wrong file, a stale build, a shadowed import, a cached dependency, or an env var that
 differs from your shell. Verify by printing something at the point you *think* executes;
 if it does not print, that is your answer.

 # Dependencies
 Every dependency is code you did not write but now maintain. Add deliberately, prune regularly.
 ## Choose on maintenance, not features
 Before adding: is it actively maintained (recent commits, responsive issues), widely used, and
 small enough to be worth it? A dependency that saves a day and is abandoned in a year costs a
 week. For something small and stable, a dozen lines in your own codebase often beats a package.
 ## Pin and lock
 Exact versions in the manifest for anything that matters, a lockfile committed, and installs
 that respect it. A `^` range means your build tomorrow differs from your build today. The
 lockfile is the build's memory; do not delete it to "fix" a conflict — resolve the conflict.
 ## Update on a schedule, read the changelog
 Routine small updates beat a yearly painful one. For a major bump: read the changelog and the
 migration guide, find every call site of the changed API, and apply one shape of change (see
 the migrate skill). Update one thing at a time so a regression has an obvious cause.
 ## Know your transitive tree
 A direct dependency drags in dozens of transitive ones. Audit the tree for: known
 vulnerabilities (`audit`/SCA tooling), abandoned packages deep in it, and duplicate copies of
 the same library at different versions bloating the bundle. Remove what you no longer use — an
 unused dependency is attack surface and install time for nothing.
 ## Supply chain is a trust decision
 A package runs its install scripts with your permissions. Prefer packages with provenance and a
 reproducible build, be wary of sudden ownership transfers, and pin so a hijacked publish does
 not reach you automatically. The lockfile is also your audit trail of exactly what shipped.

 description: Write or fix Dockerfiles and container setups. Use when an image is too large, a build is slow, a container will not start, or layering and caching need design.
 ---
 # Docker
 An image is a build artifact. Small, reproducible, and boring is the goal.
 ## Layer cache is the whole speed game
 Order instructions from least to most frequently changed: base image, then dependency
 manifests, then `install`, then source copy, then build. Copying `.` before installing
 dependencies means every code change re-runs the install — the single most common Dockerfile
 mistake.
 ## Small images, on purpose
 - Use multi-stage builds: build in a full toolchain stage, copy only the artifact into a slim
  runtime stage. The compiler does not ship to production.
 - Pick a slim or distroless base unless you need the tooling. Alpine is small but musl breaks
  some binaries; know why you chose it.
 - One `RUN` with `&&` for related steps, cleaning up in the same layer — a separate `RUN rm`
  does not shrink the image, the data is still in the earlier layer.
 ## The container is not a VM
 - One process per container, as PID 1, so signals work. Use an init if the app spawns children.
 - Do not run as root. Add a user and `USER` it.
 - Read-only filesystem where possible; write to a mounted volume for anything that must persist.
  Nothing in the image is writable state.
 ## .dockerignore is as important as the Dockerfile
 Exclude `.git`, `node_modules`, build output, and any secret file. A context that sends the
 whole repo is slow, and a secret copied into an image layer is a secret to rotate.
 ## Healthcheck and logs
 The process logs to stdout/stderr, never to a file inside the container — the runtime collects
 it. Add a `HEALTHCHECK` that proves the service answers, not just that the process exists.

 # Documentation
 Docs lie by omission. Write only what you have verified in the code.
 ## Ground every claim in the source
 Before documenting a behaviour, read it. A flag, a default, an error message — open the
 code and quote what it actually does, not what the name suggests. The most damaging doc
 line is the confident one that was true two versions ago. If the code and the existing
 docs disagree, the code is right; say so and fix the doc.
 ## Answer the reader's actual question
 A reader opens a doc with a task, not a desire for completeness. Lead with the thing they
 came to do, in the order they will do it:
 - **A reference** lists what exists: every flag, every field, with its default and its type.
 - **A guide** walks one path to one outcome. Resist documenting every branch — link instead.
 - **A README** orients in sixty seconds: what it is, install, the first command that works.
 ## Show, then say
 A working example beats a paragraph about one. Every command in the doc must be one you
 ran, with its real output. A snippet that was never executed is a bug waiting for a reader.
 ## Match the house style
 Read the neighbouring docs first: their heading depth, their code-fence language tags,
 their tone. A doc that reads foreign is a doc nobody trusts enough to maintain.
 ## Keep it true over time
 Document the stable contract, not the current implementation, unless the point is the
 implementation. The fewer specifics a doc pins down, the less it rots.

 ---
 # Frontend
 The user's experience is the metric. Fast, clear, and forgiving beats clever.
 ## State lives as low as it can
 Lift state only as high as the components that share it. Global state for something two siblings
 need is re-render and complexity for everything. Server data is not client state — cache it with
 the data layer rather than duplicating it into a store you must keep in sync by hand.
 ## Rendering is the usual bottleneck
 Before optimising, find what re-renders. A component that re-renders on every parent render
 because of an inline object or function prop is the common case. Memoize the expensive subtree,
 not everything — `useMemo` and `useCallback` have a cost too, and slapping them everywhere is
 its own slowdown.
 ## Forms respect the user
 - Validate on blur or submit, not on every keystroke, and show the message at the field.
 - Never clear a form on an error. The user's input is the most expensive thing on the page.
 - Disable the submit while submitting, and say what is happening. A double-submitted form is a
  duplicate record.
 ## Accessibility is not a later pass
 Semantic HTML first: a `<button>` that looks like a button beats a `<div>` with a click
 handler. Keyboard-reachable everything, visible focus, labels on inputs, alt text that conveys
 the point not the pixels. Colour is never the only carrier of meaning.
 ## Measure what the user feels
 Load: get the first meaningful paint and the time-to-interactive down before micro-tuning.
 Bundle: split the route nobody opens, lazy-load the heavy component. A Lighthouse number is a
 proxy; the goal is that it never feels slow.

 # Git workflow
 History is a communication tool. Write it for the person who reads it in six months — usually you.
 ## One branch, one purpose
 A branch that does two things produces a PR that can only be reviewed as all-or-nothing and
 reverted only whole. Keep it small and single-purpose; open the second thing as its own branch.
 ## Rebase to clean up, merge to preserve
 - Rebase your own unpushed work freely: it makes a linear, readable history.
 - Never rebase a branch others have pulled — it rewrites commits they have, and the next pull
  becomes a mess. Merge shared branches instead.
 - Interactive rebase before opening the PR: squash the "fix typo" and "wip" commits into the
  change they belong to. The PR should read as a series of intentional steps, not a diary.
 ## Recover without panic
 - `git reflog` finds almost anything you "lost": the branch you deleted, the commit you reset
  away. Nothing committed is truly gone for ~30 days.
 - A bad merge: `git merge --abort`. A bad rebase: `git rebase --abort`. Both stop cleanly
  rather than pushing forward into a worse state.
 - Committed to the wrong branch: `git reset --soft` to keep the work, switch, recommit.
 ## The commit message is the review's first page
 Subject under 70 chars, imperative, says what changed. Body explains *why* when it is not
 obvious. A reviewer who cannot tell why a change exists from its message will ask, or worse,
 approve without understanding.

 On a conflict, open the file and understand both sides before resolving. Taking "ours" or

 description: Internationalise or localise a product. Use when extracting strings for translation, formatting dates and numbers for a locale, handling pluralisation, or fixing layout that breaks in another language.
 ---
 # Internationalisation
 Hard-coded English is a bug in every other language. Externalise strings and never assume a
 grammar.
 ## Every user-facing string is a key
 No string in the UI lives in code; it lives in a message catalogue under a key. Concatenating
 translated fragments is the classic bug: "You have " + n + " messages" cannot be reordered for
 a language whose grammar puts the number elsewhere. Use a format with named placeholders:
 `{count, plural, ...}`, translated as a whole.
 ## Pluralisation and gender are not English
 Languages have one, two, several, or no plural forms, with rules that do not map to "1 vs other".
 Use the ICU plural machinery of your i18n library and let the translator fill in every form the
 locale needs. The same goes for gendered agreement.
 ## Format dates, numbers, and currencies by locale
 Never `dd/mm/yyyy` by hand: `03/04/2025` is March 4th to one user and April 3rd to another.
 Use the platform's locale-aware formatter (`Intl.DateTimeFormat`, `Intl.NumberFormat`).
 Store and transmit ISO 8601 / UTC; format for display only.
 ## Layout breaks in translation
 German runs ~30% longer than English; some scripts are right-to-left. Flexible layout, no fixed
 widths on translated text, and CSS logical properties (`margin-inline-start` not
 `margin-left`) so RTL mirrors correctly. Test with a pseudo-locale that lengthens and accents
 every string to find the overflows before a translator does.
 ## Sort and search correctly
 String order is locale-dependent: `ä` sorts with `a` in German, after `z` in Swedish. Use
 locale-aware collation (`Intl.Collator` or the database's) rather than byte order, and normalise
 Unicode before comparing, because the same character has more than one byte representation.

 # Incident response
 Mitigate first, diagnose second. Restore service, then find out why.
 ## Confirm and scope before touching anything
 What is actually broken, for whom, since when? Check the signal, not the report: the dashboard,
 the error rate, the health endpoint. A wrong scope sends you chasing a symptom. State the impact
 plainly in one line before you start changing things.
 ## Recent change is the prime suspect
 Most incidents follow a deploy, a config change, a flag flip, or a scaling event. What changed
 in the window before it broke? Check the deploy log and the diff. The fastest fix is usually to
 undo the last change, not to understand it.
 ## Mitigate, then understand
 - Roll back the deploy, flip the flag off, fail over, scale up, restart the wedged process —
  whichever restores service fastest, even if you do not yet know the root cause.
 - A mitigation you can reverse beats a perfect diagnosis that takes an hour. Note what you did so
  it can be undone or made permanent later.
 - Do not deploy an unreviewed "fix" into the fire; it adds a second change to a system already
  misbehaving.
 ## Preserve evidence before it rotates away
 Capture the logs, the error, the relevant metrics, a snapshot of the state — before a restart or
 a rollback destroys it. You will want it for the postmortem, and it may be the only copy.
 ## Communicate and follow up
 Say what is broken, what you are doing, and when the next update is — to whoever is affected,
 in plain language, on a schedule. Afterwards: write the timeline, the root cause, and the
 follow-ups that stop it recurring. An incident with no follow-up is a loan against the next one.

 # Logging
 Logs are how you debug a system you cannot attach a debugger to. Write them for the 3am
 incident, not the happy path.
 ## Structure over prose
 Emit fields, not sentences: `{ user: id, action: "checkout", ms: 142, ok: false }`, not
 `"User checked out"`. Structured logs are searchable and aggregable; a sentence is neither.
 One event, one line, one level.
 ## Levels are a contract
 - `error` — something is broken and someone should look. Not "a user gave bad input".
 - `warn` — unexpected but handled; worth a glance.
 - `info` — the meaningful state transitions: started, finished, the decision made. Sparse.
 - `debug` — everything you might want while diagnosing, off in production.
 A log at the wrong level trains people to ignore the right one. If everything is `error`,
 nothing is.
 ## Log the decision points, not every line
 At a boundary — a request in, a call out, a branch taken — log what was decided and the inputs
 that decided it, with a correlation id that follows the request across services. You should be
 able to trace one request end to end from the id alone.
 ## Never log a secret
 No passwords, tokens, session ids, full card numbers, or personal data beyond what policy
 allows. Redact at the point of logging, not by hoping a downstream filter catches it. A secret
 in a log aggregator is a secret to rotate.
 ## Measure, do not just log
 For anything with a latency or a rate, a metric answers "is it slow?" faster than a thousand
 log lines. Logs explain *why*; metrics tell you *that* something is wrong in the first place.

 # Migration
 The failure mode is a half-applied migration: it compiles, most tests pass, and one code
 path still uses the old API.
 ## Read the changelog before the code
 Find what actually broke. A major version usually has a migration guide; read it and list
 the changes that apply to this codebase specifically. Below 1.0, treat a minor bump as
 breaking — semver promises nothing there.
 ## Find every call site before changing one
 Grep for the old API across the whole repository, including tests, scripts, config, CI
 workflows, Dockerfiles, and documentation. A version literal pinned in a workflow while the
 manifest says something else is a split-brain deploy.
 Write the list down with `todo_write`. The list is the migration; the edits are mechanical.
 ## Change in one shape
 Apply the same transformation everywhere rather than improving each site as you pass
 through it. A migration mixed with refactoring cannot be reviewed, and cannot be reverted
 if the upgrade turns out to be wrong.
 `apply_patch` is the tool for this: one atomic patch across the files that must land
 together.
 ## Verify at the boundary that broke
 Type checks catch signature changes and miss behaviour changes — the two ways a migration
 actually breaks you. Run the tests, then actually *use* the thing that was upgraded: start
 the server, run the CLI, execute the query, hit the endpoint. A green suite over an
 untested upgrade path proves only that the suite did not cover it.
 Pay special attention to silent behaviour changes: a default that flipped, a deprecated
 call that still runs but does something subtly different, an error type that changed shape.
 These compile, pass type checks, and still break production.
 ## Never hand-merge a lockfile
 On a conflict, take either side whole and regenerate with the package manager. The resolver
 owns that file; a hand-merge is a split-brain dependency tree that installs differently on
 every machine.
 ## Report
 The version before and after, every file class touched, what you verified by running, the
 behaviour changes you checked by hand, and anything the changelog said applies that you
 deliberately did not do — with the reason.
