Previously `claw init --output-format json` emitted a valid JSON envelope but
packed the entire human-formatted output into a single `message` string. Claw
scripts had to substring-match human language to tell `created` from `skipped`.
Changes:
- Add InitStatus::json_tag() returning machine-stable "created"|"updated"|"skipped"
(unlike label() which includes the human " (already exists)" suffix).
- Add InitReport::NEXT_STEP constant so claws can read the next-step hint
without grepping the message string.
- Add InitReport::artifacts_with_status() to partition artifacts by state.
- Add InitReport::artifact_json_entries() for the structured artifacts[] array.
- Rewrite run_init + init_json_value to emit first-class fields alongside the
legacy message string (kept for text consumers): project_path, created[],
updated[], skipped[], artifacts[], next_step, message.
- Update the slash-command Init dispatch to use the same structured JSON.
- Add regression test artifacts_with_status_partitions_fresh_and_idempotent_runs
asserting both fresh + idempotent runs produce the right partitioning and
that the machine-stable tag is bare 'skipped' not label()'s phrasing.
Verified output:
- Fresh dir: created[] has 4 entries, skipped[] empty
- Idempotent call: created[] empty, skipped[] has 4 entries
- project_path, next_step as first-class keys
- message preserved verbatim for backward compat
Full workspace test green except pre-existing resume_latest flake (unrelated).
Closes ROADMAP #142.
Dogfooding kept reproducing OMX team merge conflicts on
`.clawhip/state/prompt-submit.json`, so the init bootstrap now
teaches repos to ignore `.clawhip/` alongside the existing local
`.claw/` artifacts. This also updates the current repo ignore list
so the fix helps immediately instead of only on future `claw init`
runs.
Constraint: Keep the fix narrow and centered on repo-local ignore hygiene
Rejected: Broader team merge-hygiene changes | unnecessary for the proven local root cause
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: If more runtime-local artifact directories appear, extend the shared init gitignore list instead of patching repos ad hoc
Tested: cargo fmt --all --check
Tested: cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
Tested: cargo test --workspace
Tested: Architect review (APPROVE)
Not-tested: Existing clones with already-tracked `.clawhip` files still need manual cleanup
Related: ROADMAP #75
Agents, skills, and init output were still surfacing .codex/.claude paths even though the runtime already treats .claw as the canonical config home. This updates help text, reports, skill install defaults, and repo bootstrap output to present a single .claw namespace while keeping legacy discovery fallbacks in place for existing setups.
Constraint: Existing .codex/.claude agent and skill directories still need to load for compatibility
Rejected: Remove legacy discovery entirely | would break existing user setups instead of just cleaning up surfaced output
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep future user-facing config, agent, and skill path copy aligned to .claw and even when legacy fallbacks remain supported internally
Tested: cargo fmt --all --check; cargo test --workspace --exclude compat-harness
Not-tested: cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings | fails in pre-existing unrelated runtime files (for example mcp_lifecycle_hardened.rs, mcp_tool_bridge.rs, lsp_client.rs, permission_enforcer.rs, recovery_recipes.rs, stale_branch.rs, task_registry.rs, team_cron_registry.rs, worker_boot.rs)
