 732. **`claw status --output-format json` `allowed_tools.entries` was `null` when no `--allowed-tools` flag was passed — callers doing `.allowed_tools.entries | length > 0` or trying to iterate got a null-dereference instead of an empty array** — dogfooded 2026-05-26 on `29dcd478`. `allowed_tool_entries` was computed as `allowed_tools.map(|tools| tools.iter().cloned().collect())` — `None` when unrestricted, serialized to JSON `null`. Fix: `.unwrap_or_default()` so unrestricted invocations emit `entries: []` instead of `entries: null`. Callers can now use `.entries | length > 0` uniformly without a null guard. Source: Jobdori dogfood on `29dcd478`, 2026-05-26.
 
 733. **`claw diff --output-format json` returned no `changed_file_count` field — callers seeing `result:"changes"` had to parse the raw `staged`/`unstaged` diff text to count affected files** — dogfooded 2026-05-26 on `4c16a42f`. `render_diff_json_for` ran `git diff --cached` and `git diff` and exposed them as raw strings but didn't compute a file count. Fix: run two additional `git diff --name-only` passes (staged + unstaged), deduplicate across both sets using a `BTreeSet`, and expose `changed_file_count: usize` in the envelope. Clean repos emit `changed_file_count: 0`, dirty repos emit the true unique-file count. Source: Jobdori dogfood on `4c16a42f`, 2026-05-26.

+734. **`agents show <name>` and `plugins show <name>` error envelopes had no `message` field when the target was not found — `skills show` had `"message": "skill 'X' not found"` but the other two omitted it, leaving callers with only `error_kind` and `requested` and no human-readable explanation in the same field shape** — dogfooded 2026-05-26 on `cc86f54d`. Added `"message": "agent 'X' not found"` to the `agent_not_found` branch in `commands/src/lib.rs` and `"message": "plugin 'X' not found"` to the `plugin_not_found` branch in `rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs`; both now match the `skills show` shape.
