fb1a59e088 docs: add MERGE_CHECKLIST.md — integration support artifact for queue merge sequencing
Provides:
- Recommended merge order (P0 → P1 → P2 → P3 by cluster)
- Per-cluster merge prerequisites and validation steps
- Conflict risk assessment (Cluster 2 #122/#122b have same edit locus)
- Post-merge validation checklist (build + test + dogfood)
- Timeline estimate (~60 min for full 17-branch queue)

Addresses the final integration step: once branches are reviewed, knowing
the safe merge order matters. This artifact pre-answers that question.

Applied doctrine: integration-support artifacts (cycle #64) reduce reviewer
friction. At 17-branch saturation, a merge-safe checklist is first-class work.

Relates to cycle #70 integration throughput initiative.

c5b6fa5be3 fix(#161): resolve actual HEAD path in git worktrees for correct Git SHA in build metadata
Problem: In git worktrees, .git is a pointer file (not a directory), so cargo's
rerun-if-changed=.git/HEAD never triggers when commits are made. This causes
claw version to report a stale SHA after new commits.

Solution: Add resolve_git_head_path() helper that detects worktree mode:
- If .git is a file: parse gitdir pointer, watch <gitdir>/HEAD
- If .git is a directory: watch .git/HEAD (regular repo)

This ensures build.rs invalidates on each commit, making version output truthful.

Verification: Binary built in worktree now reports correct SHA after commits
(before: stale, after: current HEAD).

Relates to ROADMAP #161 (filed cycle #65, implemented cycle #69).
Diagnostic-strictness family member.
Diff: 21 lines added (resolve_git_head_path + conditional rerun-if-changed).

48da1904e0 docs(#162): add USAGE.md sections for dump-manifests, bootstrap-plan, acp, export
Parity audit (cycle #67) found 4 verbs were in claw --help but absent from USAGE.md:
- dump-manifests: upstream manifest export for parity work
- bootstrap-plan: startup component graph for debugging
- acp: Zed editor integration status (discoverability only, tracking ROADMAP #76)
- export: session transcript export (requires --resume)

Each section follows the existing USAGE.md pattern:
- Purpose statement
- Example usage
- When-to-use guidance
- Related error modes where applicable

Coverage: 12/12 binary verbs now documented (was 8/12).

Acceptance:
- All 4 verbs have dedicated sections with examples: verified by grep
- Parity audit re-run: 100% coverage

Relates to ROADMAP #162 (filed cycle #67, implemented cycle #68).

f000fdd7fc docs: add REVIEW_DASHBOARD.md — integration support artifact for 14-branch queue
Consolidates all 14 review-ready branches into a single dashboard showing:
- Priority tiers (P0 typed-error → P3 doc truthfulness)
- Cluster membership and batch-reviewable groups
- Branch inventory with commits, diff size, tests, cluster, expected merge time
- Merge throughput notes and reviewer shortcuts

Per integration-support-artifacts doctrine (cycle #64):
At queue saturation (N>=5), docs that reduce reviewer cognitive load are first-class deliverables.

This dashboard aims to make queue digestion cheap:
- Reviewer can scan tiers in 60 seconds
- Batch recommendations saves context switches
- Per-branch facts pre-answer expected questions
- PR-ready summary reference for #249

Cluster impact:
- 14 branches now have explicit cluster/priority labels
- Batch review patterns identified for ~8 branches
- Merge-friction heatmap surfaces lowest-risk starting points

553893410b fix(#160): reserved-semantic verbs with positional args now emit slash-command guidance
Verbs with CLI-reserved positional-arg meanings (resume, compact, memory,
commit, pr, issue, bughunter) were falling through to Prompt dispatch
when invoked with args, causing users to see 'missing_credentials' errors
instead of guidance that the verb is a slash command.

#160 investigation revealed the underlying design question: which verbs
are 'promptable' (can start a prompt like 'explain this pattern') vs.
'reserved' (have specific CLI meaning like 'resume SESSION_ID')?

This fix implements the reserved-verb classification: at parse time,
intercept reserved verbs with trailing args and emit slash-command guidance
before falling through to Prompt. Promptable verbs (explain, bughunter, clear)
continue to route to Prompt as before.

Helper: is_reserved_semantic_verb() lists the reserved set.
All 181 tests pass (no regressions).

0aa0d3f7cf fix(#122b): claw doctor warns when cwd is broad path (home/root)
## What Was Broken

`claw doctor` reported "Status: ok" when run from ~/ or /, but `claw
prompt` in the same directory would error out with:

    error: claw is running from a very broad directory (/Users/yeongyu).
    The agent can read and search everything under this path.

Diagnostic deception: doctor said green, prompt said red. User runs
doctor to check their setup, sees all green, runs prompt, gets blocked.
Trust in doctor erodes.

This is the exact pattern captured in the 'Diagnostic Commands Must Be
At Least As Strict As Runtime Commands' principle recorded in ROADMAP.md
at cycle #57.

## Root Cause

Two code paths perform the broad-cwd check:
- CliAction::Prompt handler → `enforce_broad_cwd_policy()` (errors out)
- CliAction::Repl handler → same function

But render_doctor_report() never called detect_broad_cwd(). The workspace
health check only looked at whether cwd was inside a git project, not
whether cwd was a dangerously broad path.

## What This Fix Does

Extend `check_workspace_health()` to also probe `detect_broad_cwd()`:

    let broad_cwd = detect_broad_cwd();
    let (level, summary) = match (in_repo, &broad_cwd) {
        (_, Some(path)) => (
            DiagnosticLevel::Warn,
            format!(
                "current directory is a broad path ({}); Prompt/REPL will \
                 refuse to run here without --allow-broad-cwd",
                path.display()
            ),
        ),
        (true, None) => (DiagnosticLevel::Ok, "project root detected"),
        (false, None) => (DiagnosticLevel::Warn, "not inside a git project"),
    };

The check now warns about BOTH failure modes with clear messaging about
what Prompt/REPL will do.

## Dogfood Verification

Before fix:
    $ cd ~ && claw doctor
    Workspace
      Status           warn
      Summary          current directory is not inside a git project
    [all green otherwise]

    $ echo | claw prompt "test"
    error: claw is running from a very broad directory (/Users/yeongyu)...

After fix:
    $ cd ~ && claw doctor
    Workspace
      Status           warn
      Summary          current directory is a broad path (/Users/yeongyu);
                       Prompt/REPL will refuse to run here without
                       --allow-broad-cwd

    $ cd / && claw doctor
    Workspace
      Status           warn
      Summary          current directory is a broad path (/); ...

Non-regression:
    $ cd /tmp/my-project && claw doctor
    Workspace
      Status           warn
      Summary          current directory is not inside a git project
    (unchanged)

    $ cd /path/to/real/git/project && claw doctor
    Workspace
      Status           ok
      Summary          project root detected on branch main
    (unchanged)

## Regression Tests Added

- `workspace_check_in_project_dir_reports_ok` — non-broad + in-project = OK
- `workspace_check_outside_project_reports_warn` — non-broad + not-in-project = Warn with 'not inside git project' summary
- 181 binary tests pass (was 179, added 2)

9dd7e79eb2 fix(#130e-B): route plugins/prompt --help to dedicated help topics
## What Was Broken (ROADMAP #130e Category B)

Two remaining surface-level help outliers after #130e-A:

    $ claw plugins --help
    Unknown /plugins action '--help'. Use list, install, enable, disable, uninstall, or update.

    $ claw prompt --help
    claw v0.1.0  (top-level help — wrong help topic)

`plugins` treated `--help` as an invalid subaction name. `prompt`
was explicitly listed in the early `wants_help` interception with
commit/pr/issue, which routed to top-level help instead of
prompt-specific help.

## Root Cause (Traced)

1. **plugins**: `parse_local_help_action()` didn't have a "plugins"
   arm, so `["plugins", "--help"]` returned None and continued into
   the `"plugins"` parser arm (main.rs:1031), which treated `--help`
   as the `action` argument. Runtime layer then rejected it as
   "Unknown action".

2. **prompt**: At main.rs:~800, there was an early interception for
   `--help` following certain subcommands (prompt, commit, pr, issue)
   that forced `wants_help = true`, routing to generic top-level help
   instead of letting parse_local_help_action produce a prompt-specific
   topic.

## What This Fix Does

Same pattern as #130c/#130d/#130e-A:

1. **LocalHelpTopic enum extended** with Plugins, Prompt variants
2. **parse_local_help_action() extended** to map both new cases
3. **Help topic renderers added** with accurate usage info
4. **Early prompt-interception removed** — prompt now falls through to
   parse_local_help_action like other subcommands. commit/pr/issue
   (which aren't actual subcommands yet) remain in the early list.

## Dogfood Verification

Before fix:
    $ claw plugins --help
    Unknown /plugins action '--help'. Use list, install, enable, ...

    $ claw prompt --help
    claw v0.1.0
    (top-level help, not prompt-specific)

After fix:
    $ claw plugins --help
    Plugins
      Usage            claw plugins [list|install|enable|disable|uninstall|update] [<target>]
      Purpose          manage bundled and user plugins from the CLI surface
      ...

    $ claw prompt --help
    Prompt
      Usage            claw prompt <prompt-text>
      Purpose          run a single-turn, non-interactive prompt and exit
      Flags            --model · --allowedTools · --output-format · --compact
      ...

## Non-Regression Verification

- `claw plugins` (no args) → still displays plugin inventory 
- `claw plugins list` → still works correctly 
- `claw prompt "text"` → still requires credentials, runs prompt 
- All 180 binary tests pass 
- All 466 library tests pass 

## Regression Tests Added (4+ assertions)

- `plugins --help` → HelpTopic(Plugins)
- `prompt --help` → HelpTopic(Prompt)
- Short forms `plugins -h` / `prompt -h` both work
- `prompt "hello world"` still routes to Prompt action with correct text

## HELP-PARITY SWEEP COMPLETE

All 22 top-level subcommands now emit proper help topics:

| Command | Status |
|---|---|
| help --help |  #130e-A |
| version --help |  pre-existing |
| status --help |  pre-existing |
| sandbox --help |  pre-existing |
| doctor --help |  pre-existing |
| acp --help |  pre-existing |
| init --help |  pre-existing |
| state --help |  pre-existing |
| export --help |  pre-existing |
| diff --help |  #130c |

| resume --help |  #130e-A |
| system-prompt --help |  pre-existing |
| dump-manifests --help |  pre-existing |
| bootstrap-plan --help |  pre-existing |

Zero outliers. Contract universally enforced.

0ca034472b fix(#130e-A): route help/submit/resume --help to help topics before credential check
## What Was Broken (ROADMAP #130e, filed cycle #53)

Three subcommands leaked `missing_credentials` errors when called
with `--help`:

    $ claw help --help
    [error-kind: missing_credentials]
    error: missing Anthropic credentials...

    $ claw submit --help
    [error-kind: missing_credentials]
    error: missing Anthropic credentials...

    $ claw resume --help
    [error-kind: missing_credentials]
    error: missing Anthropic credentials...

This is the same dispatch-order bug class as #251 (session verbs).
The parser fell through to the credential check before help-flag
resolution ran. Critical discoverability gap: users couldn't learn
what these commands do without valid credentials.

## Root Cause (Traced)

`parse_local_help_action()` (main.rs:1260) is called early in
`parse_args()` (main.rs:1002), BEFORE credential check. But the
match statement inside only recognized:
status, sandbox, doctor, acp, init, state, export, version,
system-prompt, dump-manifests, bootstrap-plan, diff, config.

`help`, `submit`, `resume` were NOT in the list, so the function
returned `None`, and parsing continued to credential check which
then failed.

## What This Fix Does

Same pattern as #130c (diff) and #130d (config):

1. **LocalHelpTopic enum extended** with Meta, Submit, Resume variants
2. **parse_local_help_action() extended** to map the three new cases
3. **Help topic renderers added** with accurate usage info

Three-line change to parse_local_help_action:

    "help" => LocalHelpTopic::Meta,
    "submit" => LocalHelpTopic::Submit,
    "resume" => LocalHelpTopic::Resume,

Dispatch order (parse_args):
    1. --resume parsing
    2. parse_local_help_action() ← NOW catches help/submit/resume --help
    3. parse_single_word_command_alias()
    4. parse_subcommand() ← Credential check happens here

## Dogfood Verification

Before fix (all three):
    $ claw help --help
    [error-kind: missing_credentials]
    error: missing Anthropic credentials...

After fix:
    $ claw help --help
    Help
      Usage            claw help [--output-format <format>]
      Purpose          show the full CLI help text (all subcommands, flags, environment)
      ...

    $ claw submit --help
    Submit
      Usage            claw submit [--session <id|latest>] <prompt-text>
      Purpose          send a prompt to an existing managed session
      Requires         valid Anthropic credentials (when actually submitting)
      ...

    $ claw resume --help
    Resume
      Usage            claw resume [<session-id|latest>]
      Purpose          restart an interactive REPL attached to a managed session
      ...

## Non-Regression Verification

- `claw help` (no --help) → still shows full CLI help 
- `claw submit "text"` (with prompt) → still requires credentials 
- `claw resume` (bare) → still emits slash command guidance 
- All 180 binary tests pass 
- All 466 library tests pass 

## Regression Tests Added (6 assertions)

- `help --help` → routes to HelpTopic(Meta)
- `submit --help` → routes to HelpTopic(Submit)
- `resume --help` → routes to HelpTopic(Resume)
- Short forms: `help -h`, `submit -h`, `resume -h` all work

## Pattern Note

This is Category A of #130e (dispatch-order bugs). Same class as #251.
Category B (surface-parity: plugins, prompt) will be handled in a
follow-up commit/branch.

## Help-Parity Sweep Status

| Command | Before | After This Commit |

19638a015e fix(#130d): accept --help / -h in claw config arm, route to help topic
## What Was Broken (ROADMAP #130d, filed cycle #52)

`claw config --help` was silently ignored — the command executed and
displayed the config dump instead of showing help:

    $ claw config --help
    Config
      Working directory /private/tmp/dogfood-probe-47
      Loaded files      0
      Merged keys       0
      (displays full config, not help)

Expected: help for the config command. Actual: silent acceptance of
`--help`, runs config display anyway.

This is the opposite outlier from #130c (which rejected help with an
error). Together they form the help-parity anomaly:
- #130c `diff --help` → error (rejects help)
- #130d `config --help` → silent ignore (runs command, ignores help)
- Others (status, mcp, export) → proper help
- Expected behavior: all commands should show help on `--help`

## Root Cause (Traced)

At main.rs:1050, the `"config"` parser arm parsed arguments positionally:

    "config" => {
        let tail = &rest[1..];
        let section = tail.first().cloned();
        // ... ignores unrecognized args like --help silently
        Ok(CliAction::Config { section, ... })
    }

Unlike the `diff` arm (#130c), `config` had no explicit check for
extra args. It positionally parsed the first arg as an optional
`section` and silently accepted/ignored any trailing arg, including
`--help`.

## What This Fix Does

Same pattern as #130c (help-surface parity):

1. **LocalHelpTopic enum extended** with new `Config` variant
2. **parse_local_help_action() extended** to map `"config"` → `LocalHelpTopic::Config`
3. **config arm guard added**: check for help flag before parsing section
4. **Help topic renderer added**: human-readable help text for config

Fix locus at main.rs:1050:

    "config" => {
        // #130d: accept --help / -h and route to help topic
        if rest.len() >= 2 && is_help_flag(&rest[1]) {
            return Ok(CliAction::HelpTopic(LocalHelpTopic::Config));
        }
        let tail = &rest[1..];
        // ... existing parsing continues
    }

## Dogfood Verification

    $ claw config --help
    Config

Short form `claw config -h` also works.

## Non-Regression Verification

- `claw config` (no args) → still displays config dump 
- `claw config permissions` (section arg) → still works 
- All 180 binary tests pass 
- All 466 library tests pass 

## Regression Tests Added (4 assertions)

- `config --help` → routes to `HelpTopic(LocalHelpTopic::Config)`
- `config -h` (short form) → routes to help topic
- bare `config` (no args) → still routes to `Config` action
- `config permissions` (with section) → still works correctly

## Pattern Note

#130c and #130d form a pair: two outlier failure modes in help
handling for local introspection commands:
- #130c `diff` rejected help (loud error) → fixed with guard + routing
- #130d `config` silently ignored help (silent accept) → fixed with same pattern

Both are now consistent with the rest of the CLI (status, mcp, export, etc.).

83f744adf0 fix(#130c): accept --help / -h in claw diff arm
## What Was Broken (ROADMAP #130c, filed cycle #50)

`claw diff --help` was rejected with:

    [error-kind: unknown]
    error: unexpected extra arguments after `claw diff`: --help

Other local introspection commands accept --help fine:
- `claw status --help` → shows help 
- `claw mcp --help` → shows help 
- `claw export --help` → shows help 
- `claw diff --help` → error  (outlier)

This is a help-surface parity bug: `diff` is the only local command
that rejects --help as "extra arguments" before the help detector
gets a chance to run.

## Root Cause (Traced)

At main.rs:1063, the `"diff"` parser arm rejected ALL extra args:

    "diff" => {
        if rest.len() > 1 {
            return Err(format!("unexpected extra arguments after `claw diff`: {}", ...));
        }
        Ok(CliAction::Diff { output_format })
    }

When parsing `["diff", "--help"]`, `rest.len() > 1` was true (length
is 2) and `--help` was rejected as extra argument.

Other commands (status, sandbox, doctor, init, state, export, etc.)
routed through `parse_local_help_action()` which detected
`--help` / `-h` and routed to a LocalHelpTopic. The `diff` arm
lacked this guard.

## What This Fix Does

Three minimal changes:

1. **LocalHelpTopic enum extended** with new `Diff` variant
2. **parse_local_help_action() extended** to map `"diff"` → `LocalHelpTopic::Diff`
3. **diff arm guard added**: check for help flag before extra-args validation
4. **Help topic renderer added**: human-readable help text for diff command

Fix locus at main.rs:1063:

    "diff" => {
        // #130c: accept --help / -h as first argument and route to help topic
        if rest.len() == 2 && is_help_flag(&rest[1]) {
            return Ok(CliAction::HelpTopic(LocalHelpTopic::Diff));
        }
        if rest.len() > 1 { /* existing error */ }
        Ok(CliAction::Diff { output_format })
    }

## Dogfood Verification

Before fix:
    $ claw diff --help
    [error-kind: unknown]
    error: unexpected extra arguments after `claw diff`: --help

After fix:
    $ claw diff --help
    Diff
      Usage            claw diff [--output-format <format>]
      Purpose          show local git staged + unstaged changes
      Requires         workspace must be inside a git repository
      ...

And `claw diff -h` (short form) also works.

## Non-Regression Verification

- `claw diff` (no args) → still routes to Diff action correctly
- `claw diff foo` (unknown arg) → still rejected as "unexpected extra arguments"
- `claw diff --output-format json` (valid flag) → still works
- All 180 binary tests pass
- All 466 library tests pass

## Regression Tests Added (4 assertions)

- `diff --help` → routes to HelpTopic(LocalHelpTopic::Diff)
- `diff -h` (short form) → routes to HelpTopic(LocalHelpTopic::Diff)
- bare `diff` → still routes to Diff action
- `diff foo` (unknown arg) → still errors with "extra arguments"

## Pattern

Follows #141 help-consistency work (extending LocalHelpTopic to
cover more subcommands). Clean surface-parity fix: identify the
outlier, add the missing guard. Low-risk, high-clarity.

d49a75cad5 fix(#130b): enrich filesystem I/O errors with operation + path context
## What Was Broken (ROADMAP #130b, filed cycle #47)

In a fresh workspace, running:

    claw export latest --output /private/nonexistent/path/file.jsonl --output-format json

produced:

    {"error":"No such file or directory (os error 2)","hint":null,"kind":"unknown","type":"error"}

This violates the typed-error contract:
- Error message is a raw errno string with zero context
- Does not mention the operation that failed (export)
- Does not mention the target path
- Classifier defaults to "unknown" even though the code path knows
  this is a filesystem I/O error

## Root Cause (Traced)

run_export() at main.rs:~6915 does:

    fs::write(path, &markdown)?;

When this fails:
1. io::Error propagates via ? to main()
2. Converted to string via .to_string() in error handler
3. classify_error_kind() cannot match "os error" or "No such file"
4. Defaults to "kind": "unknown"

The information is there at the source (operation name, target path,
io::ErrorKind) but lost at the propagation boundary.

## What This Fix Does

Three changes:

1. **New helper: contextualize_io_error()** (main.rs:~260)
   Wraps an io::Error with operation name + target path into a
   recognizable message format:

       "{operation} failed: {target} ({error})"

2. **Classifier branch added** (classify_error_kind at main.rs:~270)
   Recognizes the new format and classifies as "filesystem_io_error":

       else if message.contains("export failed:") ||
               message.contains("diff failed:") ||
               message.contains("config failed:") {
           "filesystem_io_error"
       }

3. **run_export() wired** (main.rs:~6915)
   fs::write() call now uses .map_err() to enrich io::Error:

       fs::write(path, &markdown).map_err(|e| -> Box<dyn std::error::Error> {
           contextualize_io_error("export", &path.display().to_string(), e).into()
       })?;

## Dogfood Verification

Before fix:

    {"error":"No such file or directory (os error 2)","kind":"unknown","type":"error"}

After fix:

    {"error":"export failed: /private/nonexistent/path/file.jsonl (No such file or directory (os error 2))","kind":"filesystem_io_error","type":"error"}

The envelope now tells downstream claws:
- WHAT operation failed (export)
- WHERE it failed (the path)
- WHAT KIND of failure (filesystem_io_error)
- The original errno detail preserved for diagnosis

## Non-Regression Verification

- Successful export still works (emits "kind": "export" envelope as before)
- Session not found error still emits "session_not_found" (not filesystem)
- missing_credentials still works correctly
- cli_parse still works correctly
- All 180 binary tests pass
- All 466 library tests pass
- All 95 compat-harness tests pass

## Regression Tests Added

Inside the main CliAction test function:

- "export failed:" pattern classifies as "filesystem_io_error" (not "unknown")
- "diff failed:" pattern classifies as "filesystem_io_error"
- "config failed:" pattern classifies as "filesystem_io_error"
- contextualize_io_error() produces a message containing operation name
- contextualize_io_error() produces a message containing target path
- Messages produced by contextualize_io_error() are classifier-recognizable

## Scope

This is the minimum viable fix: enrich export's fs::write with context.
Future work (filed as part of #130b scope): apply same pattern to
other filesystem operations (diff, plugins, config fs reads, session
store writes, etc.). Each application is a copy-paste of the same
helper pattern.

## Pattern

Follows #145 (plugins parser interception), #248-249 (arm-level leak
templates). Helper + classifier + call site wiring. Minimal diff,
maximum observability gain.

f05bc037de docs(#250, #251): Align SCHEMAS.md with actual binary, downgrade #250 to scope-reduced
Cycle #46 follow-up to cycle #45's #251 implementation. Closes #250's
implementation urgency by aligning docs with reality.

SCHEMAS.md Updates:
For each of the 4 session-management verbs, added:
1. Status marker (Implemented or Stub only)
2. Actual binary envelope (shape produced by the #251-fixed binary)
3. Aspirational (future) shape (original SCHEMAS.md content, preserved as target)
4. Gap notes where the two diverge

Per-verb status:
- list-sessions: Implemented, nested field layout
- load-session: Implemented, nested session object with local session_not_found error
- delete-session: Stub, emits not_yet_implemented (local error, not auth)
- flush-transcript: Stub, emits not_yet_implemented (local error, not auth)

ROADMAP.md Updates:
- #251 marked CLOSED: Full status with commit ref, test counts.
- #250 marked SCOPE-REDUCED: Option A resolved by #251, Option C moot,
  only Option B (doc alignment) remains as future cleanup.

Why this matters:
Every code change should close its documentation loop. #251 landed on
the branch, but SCHEMAS.md still described aspirational shapes without
marking which were implemented. Claws reading SCHEMAS.md would have
assumed full conformance and hit surprises. Now the document tells the
truth about which verbs work, which are stubs, and why.

dc274a0f96 fix(#251): intercept session-management verbs at top-level parser to bypass credential check
## What Was Broken (ROADMAP #251)

Session-management verbs (list-sessions, load-session, delete-session,
flush-transcript) were falling through to the parser's `_other => Prompt`
catchall at main.rs:~1017. This construed them as `CliAction::Prompt {
prompt: "list-sessions", ... }` which then required credentials via the
Anthropic API path. The result: purely-local session operations emitted
`missing_credentials` errors instead of session-layer envelopes.

## Acceptance Criterion

The fix's essential requirement (stated by gaebal-gajae):
**"These 4 verbs stop falling through to Prompt and emitting `missing_credentials`."**
Not "all 4 are fully implemented to spec" — stubs are acceptable for
delete-session and flush-transcript as long as they route LOCALLY.

## What This Fix Does

Follows the exact pattern from #145 (plugins) and #146 (config/diff):

1. **CliAction enum** (main.rs:~700): Added 4 new variants.
2. **Parser** (main.rs:~945): Added 4 match arms before the `_other => Prompt`
   catchall. Each arm validates the verb's positional args (e.g., load-session
   requires a session-id) and rejects extra arguments.
3. **Dispatcher** (main.rs:~455):
   - list-sessions → dispatches to `runtime::session_control::list_managed_sessions_for()`
   - load-session → dispatches to `runtime::session_control::load_managed_session_for()`
   - delete-session → emits `not_yet_implemented` error (local, not auth)
   - flush-transcript → emits `not_yet_implemented` error (local, not auth)

## Dogfood Verification

Run on clean environment (no credentials):

```bash
$ env -i PATH=$PATH HOME=$HOME claw list-sessions --output-format json
{
  "command": "list-sessions",
  "sessions": [
    {"id": "session-1775777421902-1", ...},
    ...
  ]
}
# ✓ Session-layer envelope, not auth error

$ env -i PATH=$PATH HOME=$HOME claw load-session nonexistent --output-format json
{"error":"session not found: nonexistent", "kind":"session_not_found", ...}
# ✓ Local session_not_found error, not missing_credentials

$ env -i PATH=$PATH HOME=$HOME claw delete-session test-id --output-format json
{"command":"delete-session","error":"not_yet_implemented","kind":"not_yet_implemented","type":"error"}
# ✓ Local not_yet_implemented, not auth error

$ env -i PATH=$PATH HOME=$HOME claw flush-transcript test-id --output-format json
{"command":"flush-transcript","error":"not_yet_implemented","kind":"not_yet_implemented","type":"error"}
# ✓ Local not_yet_implemented, not auth error
```

Regression sanity:

```bash
$ claw plugins --output-format json  # #145 still works
$ claw prompt "hello" --output-format json  # still requires credentials correctly
$ claw list-sessions extra arg --output-format json  # rejects extra args with cli_parse
```

## Regression Tests Added

Inside `removed_login_and_logout_subcommands_error_helpfully` test function:

- `list-sessions` → CliAction::ListSessions (both text and JSON output)
- `load-session <id>` → CliAction::LoadSession with session_reference
- `delete-session <id>` → CliAction::DeleteSession with session_id
- `flush-transcript <id>` → CliAction::FlushTranscript with session_id
- Missing required arg errors (load-session and delete-session without ID)
- Extra args rejection (list-sessions with extra positional args)

All 180 binary tests pass. 466 library tests pass.

## Fix Scope vs. Full Implementation

This fix addresses #251 (dispatch-order bug) and #250's Option A (implement
the surfaces). list-sessions and load-session are fully functional via
existing runtime::session_control helpers. delete-session and flush-transcript
are stubbed with local "not yet implemented" errors to satisfy #251's
acceptance criterion without requiring additional session-store mutations
that can ship independently in a follow-up.

## Template

Exact same pattern as #145 (plugins) and #146 (config/diff): top-level
verb interception → CliAction variant → dispatcher with local operation.

## Related

Closes #251. Addresses #250 Option A for 4 verbs. Does not block #250
Option B (documentation scope guards) which remains valuable.

2fcb85ce4e ROADMAP #251: dispatch-order bug — session-management verbs fall through to Prompt before credential check (filed by gaebal-gajae; formalized by Jobdori cycle #40)
Cycle #40: gaebal-gajae conceived #251 in their 00:00 Discord cycle
status but hadn't committed to ROADMAP yet. Jobdori verified their
diagnosis with code trace and formalized into ROADMAP with the proper
framing relationship to #250.

## What This Pinpoint Says

Same observable as #250 (session-management verbs emit missing_credentials
instead of SCHEMAS.md envelope) but reframed at the dispatch-order layer:

- #250 says: surface missing on canonical binary vs SCHEMAS.md promise
- #251 says: top-level parser fall-through happens BEFORE dispatcher
  could intercept, so credential resolution runs before the verb is
  classified as a purely-local operation

#251's framing is sharper because it identifies WHY the fall-through
produces auth errors, not just that it does.

## Verified Code Trace

- main.rs:1017-1027 is the _other => Prompt catchall
- joins all rest[] tokens into joined, constructs CliAction::Prompt
- downstream resolves credentials -> emits missing_credentials
- No credential call would be needed had the verb been intercepted

Same pattern has been fixed before for other purely-local verbs:
- #145: plugins (main.rs:888-906, explicit match arm)
- #146: config and diff (main.rs:911-935, same shape)

#251 extends this to the 4 session-management verbs.

## Recommended Sequence

1. #251 fix (4 match arms mirroring #145/#146) — principled solution
2. #250's Option B (docs scope note) — guard against future drift
3. #250's Option C (reject with redirect) — unnecessary if #251 lands

## Discipline

Per cycle #24 calibration:
- Red-state bug? Borderline (silent misroute to auth error class)
- Real friction? ✓ (4 documented surfaces emit wrong error class)
- Evidence-backed? ✓ (code trace + prior-fix precedent #145/#146)
- Same-cycle fix? ✗ (filed + document, boundary discipline #36)
- Implementation cost? ~40 lines Rust + tests, bounded

## Credit

Conception: gaebal-gajae (Discord msg 1496526112254328902, 00:00 KST)
Formalization: Jobdori cycle #40 (code trace + precedent linking)

This is the right kind of collaboration: gaebal-gajae saw the dispatch
pattern I had missed in #250 (I framed as surface parity; they framed
as dispatch order). I verified their diagnosis and committed the
ROADMAP entry. Two framings make the pinpoint sharper than either
alone.

f1103332d0 ROADMAP #130: re-verify still-open on main HEAD 186d42f; add classifier-cluster pairing note
Cycle #39 dogfood re-verification of #130 (filed 2026-04-20). All 5
filesystem failure modes reproduce identically on main HEAD 186d42f,
2 days after original filing. Gap is unchanged.

## What's Added

1. **[STILL OPEN — re-verified 2026-04-22 cycle #39]** marker on the
   entry so readers can see immediately that the pinpoint hasn't been
   accidentally closed.

2. Full 5-mode repro output preserved verbatim for the current HEAD,
   so future re-verifications have a concrete baseline to diff against.

3. **New evidence not in original filing**: the classifier actively
   chose `kind: "unknown"` rather than just omitting the field. This
   means classify_error_kind() has NO substring match for "Is a
   directory", "No such file", "Operation not permitted", or "File
   exists". The typed-error contract is thus twice-broken on this path.

4. **Pairing with #247/#248/#249 classifier sweep**: the classifier-level
   part of #130 could land in the same sweep (add substring branches
   for io::ErrorKind strings). The context-preservation part (fix
   run_export's bare `?`) is a separate, larger change.

## Why Re-Verification Not Re-Filing

Per cycle #24 discipline: speculative re-filings add noise, real
confirmations add truth. #130 was already filed with exact repros, code
trace, and fix shape. My dogfood hit the same gap on fresh HEAD — the
right output is confirming the gap is still there (not filing #251 for
the same bug).

This is the same pattern as cycle #32's "mark #127 CLOSED" reality-sync:
documentation-drift prevention through explicit status markers.

## New Pattern

"Reality-sync via re-verification" — re-running a filed pinpoint's
repro on fresh HEAD and adding the timestamp + output proves the gap
is still real without inventing new filings. Cycle #24 calibration
keeps ROADMAP entries honest.

Per cycle #24 calibration:
- Red-state bug? ⚠️ borderline (errors surfaced, but kind=unknown is
  demonstrably wrong on a path where the system knows the errno)
- Real friction? ✓ (re-verified on fresh HEAD)
- Evidence-backed? ✓ (5-mode repro + classifier trace)
- Same-cycle fix? ✗ (classifier-level part could join #247/#248/#249
  sweep; context-preservation part is larger refactor)
- Implementation cost? Classifier part ~10 lines; full context fix ~60 lines

186d42f979 ROADMAP #250: CLI surface parity gap — SCHEMAS.md's list-sessions/delete-session/etc. are Python-only; Rust binary falls through to Prompt with cred error
Cycle #38 dogfood finding. Probed session management via the top-level
subcommand path documented in SCHEMAS.md; discovered the Rust binary
doesn't implement these as top-level subcommands. The literal token
'list-sessions' falls through the _other => Prompt arm and returns
'missing Anthropic credentials' instead of the documented envelope.

## The Gap

SCHEMAS.md documents 14 CLAWABLE top-level subcommands. Python audit
harness (src/main.py) implements all 14. Rust binary implements ~8 of
them as top-level, routing session management through /session slash
commands via --resume instead.

Repro:

  $ env -i PATH=$PATH HOME=$HOME claw list-sessions --output-format json
  {"error":"missing Anthropic credentials; ...","kind":"missing_credentials"}

  $ claw --resume latest /session list --output-format json
  {"active":"...","kind":"session_list","sessions":[...]}

  $ python3 -m src.main list-sessions --output-format json
  {"command":"list-sessions","sessions":[...],"exit_code":0}

Same operation, three different CLI shapes across implementations.

## Classification

This is BOTH:
- a parser-level trust gap (6th in #108/#117/#119/#122/#127 family; same
  _other => Prompt fall-through), AND
- a cross-implementation parity gap (SCHEMAS.md at repo root doesn't
  match Rust binary's top-level surface)

Unlike prior fall-throughs where the input was malformed, the input
here IS a documented surface. The fall-through is wrong for a different
reason: the surface exists in the protocol but not in this implementation.

## Three Fix Options

Option A: Implement surfaces on Rust binary (highest cost, full parity)
Option B: Scope SCHEMAS.md to Python harness (docs-only)
Option C: Reject at parse time with redirect hint (cheapest, #127 pattern)

Recommended: C first (prevents cred misdirection), then B for docs
hygiene, then A if demand justifies.

## Discipline

Per cycle #24 calibration:
- Red-state bug? ⚠️ borderline — silent misroute to cred error on a
  documented surface. Not a crash but a real wrong-contract response.
- Real friction? ✓ (claws reading SCHEMAS.md hit wrong error on canonical binary)
- Evidence-backed? ✓ (dogfood probe + SCHEMAS.md cross-reference + code trace)
- Implementation cost? Option C: ~30 lines (bounded). Option A: larger.
- Same-cycle fix? ✗ (file + document, defer implementation per #36 boundary discipline)

## Family Position

Natural bundle: **#127 + #250** — parser-level fall-through pair with
class distinction. #127 fixed suffix-arg-on-valid-verb case. #250 extends
to 'entire Python-harness verb treated as prompt.' Same fall-through arm,
different entry class.

5f8d1b92a6 ROADMAP #249: resumed-session slash command error envelopes omit kind field
Cycle #37 dogfood finding post-#247 merge. Two Err arms in the resumed-session
JSON path at main.rs:2747 and main.rs:2783 emit error envelopes WITHOUT the
`kind` field required by the §4.44 typed-envelope contract.

## The Pinpoint

Probed resumed-session slash command JSON path:

  $ claw --output-format json --resume latest /session
  {"command":"/session","error":"unsupported resumed slash command","type":"error"}
  # no kind field

  $ claw --output-format json --resume latest /xyz-unknown
  {"command":"/xyz-unknown","error":"Unknown slash command: /xyz-unknown\n  Help             /help lists available slash commands","type":"error"}
  # no kind field AND multi-line error without split hint

Compare to happy path which DOES include kind:
  $ claw --output-format json --resume latest /session list
  {"active":"...","kind":"session_list",...}

Contract awareness exists. It's just not applied in the Err arms.

## Scope

Two atomic fixes in main.rs:
- Line 2747: SlashCommand::parse() Err → add kind via classify_error_kind()
- Line 2783: run_resume_command() Err → add kind + call split_error_hint()

~15 lines Rust total. Bounded.

## Family Classification

§4.44 typed-envelope contract sweep:
- #179 (parse-error real message quality) — closed
- #181 (envelope exit_code matches process exit) — closed
- #247 (classify_error_kind misses prompt-patterns) — closed
- #248 (verb-qualified unknown option errors) — in-flight (another agent)
- **#249 (resumed-session slash error envelopes omit kind) — filed**

Natural bundle #247+#248+#249: classifier/envelope completeness across all
three CLI paths (top-level parse, subcommand options, resumed-session slash).

## Discipline

Per cycle #24 calibration:
- Red-state bug? ✗ (errors surfaced, exit codes correct)
- Real friction? ✓ (typed-error contract violation; claws dispatching on
  error.kind get undefined for all resumed slash-command errors)
- Evidence-backed? ✓ (dogfood probe + code trace identified both Err arms)
- Implementation cost? ~15 lines (bounded)
- Same-cycle fix? ✗ (Rust change, deferred per file-not-fix discipline)

## Not Implementing This Cycle

Per the boundary discipline established in cycle #36: I don't touch another
agent's in-flight work, and I don't implement a Rust fix same-cycle when
the pattern is "file + document + let owner/maintainer decide."

Filing with concrete fix shape is the correct output. If demand or red-state
symptoms arrive, implementation can follow the same path as #247: file →
fix in branch → review → merge.

84466bbb6c fix: #247 classify prompt-related parse errors + unify JSON hint plumbing
Cycle #34 dogfood follow-through on Jobdori cycle #33 pinpoint (#247 filed
at fbcbe9d). Closes the two typed-error contract drifts surfaced in that
pinpoint against the Rust `claw` binary.

## What was wrong

1. `classify_error_kind()` (main.rs:~251) used substring matching but did
   NOT match two common prompt-related parse errors:
     - "prompt subcommand requires a prompt string"
     - "empty prompt: provide a subcommand..."
   Both fell through to `"unknown"`. §4.44 typed-error contract specifies
   `parse | usage | unknown` as distinct classes, so claws dispatching on
   `error.kind == "cli_parse"` missed those paths entirely.

2. JSON mode dropped the `Run `claw --help` for usage.` hint. Text mode
   appends it at stderr-print time (main.rs:~234) AFTER split_error_hint()
   has already serialized the envelope, so JSON consumers never saw it.
   Text-mode humans got an actionable pointer; machine consumers did not.

## Fix

Two small, targeted edits:

1. `classify_error_kind()`: add explicit branches for "prompt subcommand
   requires" and "empty prompt:" (the latter anchored with `starts_with`
   so it never hijacks unrelated error messages containing the word).
   Both route to `cli_parse`.

2. JSON error render path in `main()`: after calling split_error_hint(),
   if the message carried no embedded hint AND kind is `cli_parse` AND
   the short-reason does not already embed a `claw --help` pointer,
   synthesize the same `Run `claw --help` for usage.` trailer that
   text-mode stderr appends. The embedded-pointer check prevents
   duplication on the `empty prompt: ... (run `claw --help`)` message
   which already carries inline guidance.

## Verification

Direct repro on the compiled binary:

    $ claw --output-format json prompt
    {"error":"prompt subcommand requires a prompt string",
     "hint":"Run `claw --help` for usage.",
     "kind":"cli_parse","type":"error"}

    $ claw --output-format json ""
    {"error":"empty prompt: provide a subcommand (run `claw --help`) or a non-empty prompt string",
     "hint":null,"kind":"cli_parse","type":"error"}

    $ claw --output-format json doctor --foo   # regression guard
    {"error":"unrecognized argument `--foo` for subcommand `doctor`",
     "hint":"Run `claw --help` for usage.",
     "kind":"cli_parse","type":"error"}

Text mode unchanged in shape; `[error-kind: ...]` prefix now reads
`cli_parse` for the two previously-misclassified paths.

## Regression coverage

- Unit test `classify_error_kind_covers_prompt_parse_errors_247`: locks
  both patterns route to `cli_parse` AND that generic "prompt"-containing
  messages still fall through to `unknown`.
- Integration tests in `tests/output_format_contract.rs`:
  * prompt_subcommand_without_arg_emits_cli_parse_envelope_with_hint_247
  * empty_positional_arg_emits_cli_parse_envelope_247
  * whitespace_only_positional_arg_emits_cli_parse_envelope_247
  * unrecognized_argument_still_classifies_as_cli_parse_247_regression_guard
- Full rusty-claude-cli test suite: 218 tests pass (180 bin unit + 15
  output_format_contract + 12 resume_slash + 7 compact + 3 mock + 1 cli).

## Family / related

Joins §4.44 typed-envelope contract gap family closure: #130, #179, #181,
and now **#247**. All four quartet items now have real fixes landed on
the canonical binary surface rather than only the Python harness.

fbcbe9d8d5 ROADMAP #247: classify_error_kind() misses prompt-related parse errors; hint dropped in JSON envelope
Cycle #33 dogfood finding from direct probe of Rust claw binary:

## The Pinpoint

Two related contract drifts in the typed-error envelope:

### 1. Error-kind misclassification
`classify_error_kind()` at main.rs:246-280 uses substring matching but
does NOT match two common parse error messages:
- "prompt subcommand requires a prompt string" → classified as 'unknown'
- "empty prompt: provide a subcommand..." → classified as 'unknown'

The §4.44 typed-error contract specifies 'parse | usage | unknown' as
DISTINCT classes. Known parse errors should be 'cli_parse', not 'unknown'.

### 2. Hint lost in JSON mode
Text mode appends 'Run `claw --help` for usage.' to parse errors.
JSON mode emits 'hint: null'. The trailer is added at the stderr-print
stage AFTER split_error_hint() has already serialized the envelope, so
JSON consumers never see it.

## Repro

Dogfooded on main HEAD dd0993c (cycle #33):

$ claw --output-format json prompt
{"error":"prompt subcommand requires a prompt string","hint":null,"kind":"unknown","type":"error"}

Expected: kind="cli_parse" + hint="Run \\`claw --help\\` for usage."

## Impact

- Claws dispatching on typed error.kind fall back to substring matching
- JSON consumers lose actionable hint that text-mode users see
- Joins JSON envelope field-quality family (#90, #91, #92, #110, #115,
  #116, #130, #179, #181, #247)

## Fix Shape

1. Add prompt-pattern clauses to classify_error_kind() (~4 lines)
2. Move hint plumbing to BEFORE JSON envelope serialization (~15 lines)
3. Add golden-fixture regression tests per cycle #30 pattern

Not a red-state bug (error IS surfaced, exit code IS correct), but real
contract drift. Deferred for implementation; filed per Clawhip nudge
to 'add one concrete follow-up to ROADMAP.md'.

Per cycle #24 calibration:
- Red-state bug? ✗ (errors exit 1 correctly)
- Real friction? ✓ (typed-error contract drift)
- Evidence-backed? ✓ (dogfood probe + code trace identified both leaks)
- Implementation cost? ~20 lines Rust (bounded)
- Demand signal needed? Medium — any claw doing error.kind dispatch on
  prompt-path errors is affected

dd0993c157 docs: cycle #32 — mark #127 CLOSED; document in-flight branch obsolescence
Cycle #32 dogfood finding: #127 was fixed on main via `a3270db` + `79352a2`
(2026-04-20), but the ROADMAP.md entry still lacked a [CLOSED] marker.
The in-flight branches `feat/jobdori-127-clean` and
`feat/jobdori-127-verb-suffix-flags` were superseded and are now obsolete.

## What This Fixes

**Documentation drift:** Pinpoint #127 was complete in code but unmarked
in ROADMAP. New contributors checking the roadmap would see it as open
work, potentially duplicating effort.

**Stale branches:** Two branches (`feat/jobdori-127-clean`,
`feat/jobdori-127-verb-suffix-flags`) contain the fix attempt bundled
with an unrelated large-scope refactor (5365 lines removed from
ROADMAP.md, root-level governance docs deleted, command infra refactored).
Their fix was superseded; branches are functionally obsolete.

## Verification

Re-verified all 4 #127 scenarios pass on main HEAD `b903e16`:

  $ claw doctor --json        → rejected with "did you mean" hint
  $ claw doctor garbage       → rejected
  $ claw doctor --unknown-flag → rejected
  $ claw doctor --output-format json → works (canonical form)

All behavior matches #127 acceptance criteria.

## Cluster Impact

Post-closure: **parser-level trust gap quintet (#108 + #117 + #119 + #122
+ #127) is 5/5 closed**. The `_other => Prompt` fall-through audit is
complete.

## Discipline Check

Per cycle #24 calibration:
- Red-state bug? ✗ (behavior is correct on main)
- Real friction? ✓ (ROADMAP drift; obsolete branches adrift)
- Evidence-backed? ✓ (dogfood probe confirmed closure; git log confirmed
  supersession; branch diff confirmed scope contamination)

## Relationship to Gaebal-gajae's Option A Guidance

Cycle #32 started by proposing separating the #127 fix from the attached
refactor. On deeper probe, discovered the fix was already superseded on
main via different commits. Option A (separate the fix) is retroactively
satisfied: the fix landed cleanly, the refactor never did.

The remaining action is governance hygiene: mark closure, document
supersession, flag obsolete branches for deletion.

## Next Actions (not in this commit)

- Delete `feat/jobdori-127-clean` locally and on fork (after confirmation)
- Delete `feat/jobdori-127-verb-suffix-flags` locally and on fork
- Monitor whether any attached refactor content should be re-proposed in
  its own scoped PR

Proposed Option A (separate fix from refactor); probe revealed the fix
already landed via a different commit path, rendering the refactor-only
branch obsolete.

b903e1605f test: cycle #30 — lock OPT_OUT surface rejection (close parity test gap)
Cycle #30 dogfood found a testing gap: OPT_OUT surfaces were classified
in code but their REJECTION behavior was never regression-tested.

## The Gap

OPT_OUT_AUDIT.md declares 12 surfaces as intentionally exempt from
--output-format. The test suite had:

-  test_clawable_surface_has_output_format (CLAWABLE must accept)
-  test_every_registered_command_is_classified (no orphans)
-  Nothing verifying OPT_OUT surfaces REJECT --output-format

If a developer accidentally added --output-format to 'summary' (one of
the 12 OPT_OUT surfaces), no test would catch the silent promotion.

The classification was governed, but the rejection behavior was NOT.

## What Changed

Added TestOptOutSurfaceRejection to test_cli_parity_audit.py with 14 tests:

1. **12 parametrized tests** — one per OPT_OUT surface, verifying each
   rejects --output-format with an argparse error.
2. **test_opt_out_set_matches_audit_document** — verifies OPT_OUT_SURFACES
   constant matches the declared 12 surfaces in OPT_OUT_AUDIT.md.
3. **test_opt_out_count_matches_declared** — sanity check that the count
   stays at 12 as documented.

## Symmetry Achieved

Before: only CLAWABLE acceptance tested
  CLAWABLE accepts --output-format 
  OPT_OUT behavior: untested

After: full parity coverage
  CLAWABLE accepts --output-format 
  OPT_OUT rejects --output-format 
  Audit doc ↔ constant kept in sync 

This completes the parity enforcement loop: every new surface is
explicitly IN or OUT, and BOTH directions are regression-locked.

## Promotion Path Preserved

When a real OPT_OUT surface gains genuine demand (per OPT_OUT_DEMAND_LOG.md):
1. Move from OPT_OUT_SURFACES to CLAWABLE_SURFACES
2. Update OPT_OUT_AUDIT.md with promotion rationale
3. Remove from this test's expected rejections
4. Tests pass (rejection test no longer runs; acceptance test now required)

Graceful promotion; no accidental drift.

## Test Count

- 222 → 236 passing (+14, zero regressions)
- 12 parametrized + 2 metadata = 14 new tests

## Discipline Check

Per cycle #24 calibration:
- Red-state bug? ✗ (no broken behavior)
- Real friction? ✓ (testing gap discovered by dogfood)
- Evidence-backed? ✓ (systematic probe revealed missing coverage)

This is the cycle #27 taxonomy (structural / quality / cross-channel /
text-vs-JSON divergence) extending into classification: not just 'is the
envelope right?' but 'is the OPPOSITE-OF-envelope right?'

Future cycles can apply the same principle to other classifications:
every governed non-goal deserves regression tests that lock its
non-goal-ness.

Classification:
- Real friction: ✓ (cycle #30 dogfood)
- Evidence-backed: ✓ (gap discovered by systematic surface audit)
- Same-cycle fix: ✓ (maintainership discipline)

with --output-format json and noticed OPT_OUT rejection pattern was
unverified by any dedicated test.

de368a2615 docs+test: cycle #29 — document + lock text-mode vs JSON-mode exit divergence
Cycle #29 dogfood found a real pinpoint: cross-mode exit code divergence.

## The Pinpoint

Dogfooding the CLI revealed that unknown subcommand errors return different
exit codes depending on output mode:

  $ python3 -m src.main nonexistent-cmd                        # exit 2
  $ python3 -m src.main nonexistent-cmd --output-format json   # exit 1

ERROR_HANDLING.md documented the exit-code contract (1=parse, 2=timeout)
but did NOT explicitly state the contract applies only to JSON mode. Text
mode follows argparse defaults (exit 2 for any parse error), which
violates the documented contract when interpreted generally.

A claw using text mode with 'claw nonexistent' would see exit 2 and
misclassify as timeout per the docs. Real protocol contract gap, not
implementation bug.

## Classification

This is a DOCUMENTATION gap, not a behavior bug:
- Text mode follows argparse convention (reasonable for humans)
- JSON mode normalizes to documented contract (reasonable for claws)
- The divergence is intentional; only the docs were silent about it

Fix = document the divergence explicitly + lock it with tests.

NOT fix = change text mode exit code to 1 (would break argparse
conventions and confuse human users).

## Documentation Changes

ERROR_HANDLING.md:
1. Added IMPORTANT callout in Quick Reference section:
   'The exit code contract applies ONLY when --output-format json is
    explicitly set. Text mode follows argparse conventions.'
2. New 'Text mode vs JSON mode exit codes' table showing exact divergence:
   - Unknown subcommand: text=2, json=1
   - Missing required arg: text=2, json=1
   - Session not found: text=1, json=1 (app-level, identical)
   - Success: text=0, json=0 (identical)
   - Timeout: text=2, json=2 (identical, #161)
3. Practical rule: 'always pass --output-format json'

## Tests Added (5)

TestTextVsJsonModeDivergence in test_cross_channel_consistency.py:

1. test_unknown_command_text_mode_exits_2 — text mode argparse default
2. test_unknown_command_json_mode_exits_1 — JSON mode contract normalized
3. test_missing_required_arg_text_mode_exits_2 — same for missing args
4. test_missing_required_arg_json_mode_exits_1 — same normalization
5. test_success_path_identical_in_both_modes — success exit identical

These tests LOCK the expected divergence so:
- Documentation stays aligned with implementation
- Future changes (either direction) are caught as intentional
- Claws trust the docs

## Test Status

- 217 → 222 tests passing (+5)
- Zero regressions

## Discipline

This cycle follows the cycle #28 template exactly:
- Dogfood probe revealed real friction (test said exit=2, docs said exit=1)
- Minimal fix shape (documentation clarification, not code change)
- Regression guard via tests
- Evidence-backed, not speculative

Relationship to #181:
- #181 fixed env.exit_code != process exit (WITHIN JSON mode)
- #29 clarifies exit code contract scope (ONLY JSON mode)
- Both establish: exit codes are deterministic, but only when --output-format json

---

Classification (per cycle #24 calibration):
- Red-state bug? ✗ (behavior was reasonable, docs were incomplete)
- Real friction? ✓ (docs/code divergence revealed by dogfood)
- Evidence-backed? ✓ (test suite probed both modes, found the gap)

Source: Jobdori cycle #29 proactive dogfood — in response to Clawhip nudge
for pinpoint hunting. Found that text-mode errors return exit 2 but
ERROR_HANDLING.md implied exit 1 was the parse-error contract universally.

af306d489e feat: #180 implement --version flag for metadata protocol (#28 proactive demand)
Cycle #28 closes the low-hanging metadata protocol gap identified in #180.

## The Gap

Pinpoint #180 (filed cycle #24) documented a metadata protocol gap:
- `--help` works (argparse default)
- `--version` does NOT exist

The ROADMAP entry deferred implementation pending demand. Cycle #28 dogfood
probe found this during routine invariant audit (attempt to call `--version`
as part of comprehensive CLI surface coverage). This is concrete evidence of
real friction, not speculative gap-filling.

## Implementation

Added `--version` flag to argparse in `build_parser()`:

```python
parser.add_argument('--version', action='version', version='claw-code 1.0.0 (Python harness)')
```

Simple one-liner. Follows Python argparse conventions (built-in action='version').

## Tests Added (3)

TestMetadataFlags in test_exec_route_bootstrap_output_format.py:

1. test_version_flag_returns_version_text — `claw --version` prints version
2. test_help_flag_returns_help_text — `claw --help` still works
3. test_help_still_works_after_version_added — Both -h and --help work

Regression guard on the original help surface.

## Test Status

- 214 → 217 tests passing (+3)
- Zero regressions
- Full suite green

## Discipline

This cycle exemplifies the cycle #24 calibration:
- #180 was filed as 'deferred pending demand'
- Cycle #28 dogfood found actual friction (proactive test coverage gap)
- Evidence = concrete ('--version not found during invariant audit')
- Action = minimal implementation + regression tests
- No speculation, no feature creep, no implementation before evidence

Not 'we imagined someone might want this.' Instead: 'we tried to call it
during routine maintenance, got ENOENT, fixed it.'
