Purpose

resolvePushEvidence() (introduced by #494) returns an identical empty
changedFiles array both for a genuine no-op push and for a tag-only push
that never produced real path proof — downstream local-admission consumers
could not tell a safe NO_CHANGES apart from incomplete evidence.

Scope

Adds pathEvidenceState: 'COMPLETE' | 'PARTIAL' to PushEvidence:

  • PARTIAL if any update in the push has disposition === 'TAG' (including
    mixed branch+tag pushes) — conservative, does not invent a changed-path
    set for tags
  • PARTIAL on the INVALID/error path
  • COMPLETE for branch/new-branch/deletion updates and for empty update sets

Non-goals

  • no change to local-admission classifier routing (scripts/ci-prepush-*)
  • no consumption of pathEvidenceState by any caller yet (S1's job, not S3a's)

Validation

  • pnpm exec vitest run tests/unit/signing.test.ts — 19/19 passed (4 new
    cases: complete branch/new-branch/deletion, partial lightweight+annotated
    tag, partial mixed branch+tag, empty+invalid edge cases)
  • pnpm exec biome check on touched files — clean
  • pnpm run typecheck — clean

Summary by Sourcery

Distinguish complete changed-path evidence from partial push evidence to enable safer downstream pre-push decisions.

New Features:

  • Add explicit path-evidence completeness status to push evidence results, distinguishing complete changed-file proof from partial evidence.

Bug Fixes:

  • Prevent tag-only and mixed branch/tag pushes from being misclassified as confirmed no-change results.

Tests:

  • Add coverage for complete branch updates, partial tag and mixed updates, empty evidence, and invalid evidence cases.

Reviewer's Guide

The PR makes path-proof completeness explicit in PushEvidence by introducing pathEvidenceState, conservatively classifying tag-containing and invalid results as PARTIAL while retaining COMPLETE for branch-only and empty pushes. It updates the type declaration, adds focused unit coverage for all key cases, and synchronizes README test-count metadata.

This PR successfully adds explicit path evidence completeness tracking to the pre-push evidence contract. The implementation correctly distinguishes between complete path evidence (branch/new-branch/deletion updates) and partial evidence (any tag updates), solving the ambiguity where downstream consumers couldn't differentiate between a genuine no-op push and incomplete tag-only evidence.

Key improvements:

  • ✅ Clean implementation with pathEvidenceState: 'COMPLETE' | 'PARTIAL' in PushEvidence interface
  • ✅ Conservative logic: marks evidence as PARTIAL whenever any TAG disposition exists, preventing false assumptions about path coverage
  • ✅ Comprehensive test coverage: 4 new test cases covering all evidence states (complete branch updates, partial tag updates, mixed updates, empty/invalid edge cases)
  • ✅ TypeScript definitions updated to match implementation
  • ✅ Documentation updated (test count badges in README)

The change respects the S3a/S1 authority boundary as stated, keeping scope limited to signing-core without touching local-admission routing. All 19 tests pass, Biome check is clean, and typecheck succeeds.

* refactor(admission): reconstruct change-aware local checks

ci-prepush-lowend.mjs ran a fixed list of local checks unconditionally
on every push, with no change-aware routing at all. Reconstruct the
change classifier (ci-prepush-classifier.mjs), its i18n/content-guard
routing registry (ci-prepush-check-registry.mjs), and wire both into
the runner so DOCS_ONLY/WORKFLOW_ONLY/TOOLING/etc. changes skip
irrelevant local checks while TypeScript-impacting changes still run
typecheck.

Two defects fixed relative to the prior reconstruction attempt this
is based on: a failed `git diff` on a resolved manual upstream range
silently produced an empty-but-"resolved" file list (fail-open,
allowing an unsafe skip) instead of falling back to conservative full
admission; and scripts/coverage-thresholds.json was classified as
generic TOOLING despite being a resolveJsonModule import into
vitest.config.ts, so a push touching only it wrongly deferred
typecheck.

Also wires in pathEvidenceState (#498): pre-push-hook evidence is only
trusted as a complete file list when path evidence is COMPLETE, not
just when evidenceState is RESOLVED — a tag-only push (PARTIAL) now
correctly falls back to conservative full admission instead of
trusting a possibly-incomplete changedFiles list.

The manual-range and evidence-resolution logic lives in a new
ci-prepush-range-resolver.mjs so it stays independently unit-testable
under Vitest without importing hooks/shared.mjs (which pulls in
dependency-state.mjs's raw import.meta.url path resolution — that
file is intentionally tested via node:test instead, not Vitest).

* fix(admission): close review-loop findings on change-aware checks

Consolidated E1 remediation for PR #499's first review epoch, covering
every current-material finding from Sourcery, CodeAnt, CodeRabbit, and
chatgpt-codex-connector:

- Working-tree Git-command failures (diff HEAD / ls-files --others) were
  silently converted to an empty path list instead of propagating
  failure; changedFilesFromManualRange() could still return
  rangeResolved:true. Both now return null on failure the same way the
  committed-range diff already did.
- scripts/ci-prepush-range-resolver.mjs determines what evidence is
  trusted but wasn't in either governed check's implementationFiles set,
  so a resolver-only change could skip i18n/content-guard admission.
  Added to both, with regression assertions.
- JSON fixtures under tests/fixtures/ get inferred TypeScript types
  (confirmed: tests/unit/services/logger.test.ts and
  features/project/coreEnvelope.test.ts both import one directly) and
  were wrongly deferred as TEST_ONLY. Scoped narrowly to
  tests/fixtures/**/*.json, not all of tests/, based on the actual
  fixture tree.
- ci-prepush-check-registry.mjs exported an internal admissionCheckRegistry
  the paired .d.mts didn't declare; removed the export instead of
  widening the public surface, since nothing external consumes it.
- Extracted isMainModule() as a tested pure function (was inline
  process.argv[1] === fileURLToPath comparison). Verified via the real
  `pnpm run ci:prepush` invocation that main() already executed
  correctly before this change (Node resolves process.argv[1] to an
  absolute path even for a relative `node scripts/x.mjs` invocation) —
  Sourcery's finding was a false positive, kept as a cheap defensive
  normalization rather than reverted.

README test-count metrics resynced via the existing `pnpm run
sync:readme` authority (6982+ tests / 577 files) rather than hand-edited,
fixing the doc-metrics drift gate failure from E0.

Validated: full `pnpm run ci:prepush` passes end-to-end (dependency
state, toolchain, docs, CSP, desktop-import boundary, native readiness,
i18n key parity/bundle/quality, content guard, typecheck), not just the
targeted test/lint/typecheck subset.

* fix(admission): close E1 findings and one self-identified test gap

Terminal E2 remediation for PR #499, bounded to what the complete E1
review epoch surfaced plus one independently verified validation gap:

- QNBS-v3 comments in ci-prepush-classifier.mjs, ci-prepush-range-resolver.mjs,
  and its test file wrapped onto a second physical line, violating this
  repo's hard one-line rule (chatgpt-codex-connector, AGENTS.md L245-254).
  Shortened all three to fit on one line each.
- locales/** and community-templates/** files fell through classifyFile()
  to UNKNOWN -> AMBIGUOUS, triggering an unnecessary typecheck for
  i18n/content-only pushes even though shouldRunAdmissionCheck() already
  routes them to their own dedicated checks (Graphite). Added a
  NON_CODE_ROOTS classification matching the registry's own routing
  patterns, and included NON_CODE_ONLY in the mixed-category exemption
  so it composes with DOCS/WORKFLOW/TOOLING/TEST_ONLY.
- changedFilesFromManualRange() correctly propagates a null
  workingTreeFiles() (working-tree discovery failure) to
  rangeResolved:false, but had no direct regression for that specific
  path -- only the sibling diffNames() failure was covered. Added it.

README test-count metrics resynced again via `pnpm run sync:readme`
(6984+ tests / 577 files).

Validated: full `pnpm run ci:prepush` passes end-to-end.

* docs: reconcile pre-push gate docs with change-aware admission

CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md still described pnpm run ci:prepush as running
the exact CI typecheck and i18n checks unconditionally on every push --
that was accurate for the prior fixed-check-list runner, but this PR
replaced it with change-aware routing (DEFERRED_TO_REQUIRED_CI for
non-impacting classifications, fail-closed to full admission on
incomplete evidence). Runtime and tests are correct and unchanged by
this commit; only the description was stale (confirmed via chatgpt-codex-connector
review findings on PR #499, verified against the actual checked-in text
at this exact branch's HEAD rather than a different branch's copy).

Also documents the same contract in docs/CI.md, which previously had no
mention of the classifier at all.

Docs-only: no runtime, test, or script changes in this commit.

* docs: fix false lint claim and reconcile AGENTS.md sections

Two errors from the prior documentation reconciliation commit,
identified by fresh chatgpt-codex-connector review findings on that
exact commit:

- CLAUDE.md and the new docs/CI.md section both claimed ci:prepush
  runs lint unconditionally. scripts/ci-prepush-lowend.mjs has never
  invoked Biome/lint at all (grep confirms zero references) -- lint
  has only ever been the separate pre-commit hook's job on staged
  files, with full-repository lint being CI-owned. Removed the false
  claim and made this ownership explicit in all three files.
- AGENTS.md's "Critical Execution Environment Warning" section
  (lines 32-36) still described the superseded unconditional
  typecheck/i18n behavior after the prior commit only updated the
  later "Testing Instructions" section, leaving two authoritative
  sections of the same file in direct conflict for the same command.
  Reconciled both to describe the same change-aware contract.

Docs-only: no runtime, test, workflow, manifest, or lockfile changes.

* docs: correct local-typecheck characterization and fix CI.md anchor

CLAUDE.md described the local ci:prepush typecheck as "the exact CI
typecheck" — it runs tsgo --noEmit with --checkers 1, while required
CI uses --checkers 4. Also pointed dependency-verification recovery
at pnpm install --frozen-lockfile, which does not update the
dependency-state fingerprint; the repository's own authority for
that is scripts/dependency-state.mjs reconcile.

docs/CI.md linked to the "ci:prepush change-aware routing" section
using a hand-guessed fragment (#ci-prepush-change-aware-routing) that
does not match GitHub's generated slug for a heading containing a
colon; corrected to #ciprepush-change-aware-routing.

…t 1) (#501)

* feat(signing): add working-tree-vs-push divergence detection (S3b Part 1)

Neither pathEvidenceState (#498) nor any other current signal proves
that the content ci-prepush-lowend.mjs's local checks actually validate
(everything runs against whatever is on disk, cwd: projectRoot)
corresponds to localSha's exact committed tree, rather than a working
tree that has drifted from it (uncommitted edits, staged-but-uncommitted
changes, wrong ref checked out). Required CI remains the sole
merge-safety authority regardless, so this is a local-gate trust/DX
gap, not a safety hole -- and this commit closes only that gap, as a
diagnostic signal, not as exact-tree validation.

resolvePushEvidence() (signing-core.mjs) gains a new orthogonal
dimension, workingTreeState: 'MATCHES' | 'DIVERGED' | 'NOT_APPLICABLE'
| 'UNKNOWN', computed per-update via a new computeWorkingTreeState()
using `git diff --quiet <localSha> --` (compares working tree directly
against the commit's tree; structurally cannot see untracked files,
which is exactly why MATCHES is not sufficient to prove exact-tree
equivalence -- an untracked file satisfying an import that's absent
from the real commit would make a local check pass when a real
checkout of localSha would fail). DELETED updates get NOT_APPLICABLE
(no commit to compare against); TAG updates are included on the same
terms as branch updates via the same call (git's own revision parsing
transitively peels a tag to its target), not excluded as an earlier
draft had them -- a diverged tag push is now reported instead of
silently unreported. Aggregation precedence: DIVERGED > UNKNOWN >
MATCHES > (NOT_APPLICABLE only when no relevant update exists, e.g. an
all-deletions push).

computeWorkingTreeState() never throws -- it maps any runGit() failure
(spawn error, timeout) to UNKNOWN internally, and critically checks
result.error before trusting result.status, since runGit's own
`status: result.status ?? 1` fallback makes a killed/failed subprocess
indistinguishable from a genuine "differences found" exit code 1
unless the caller inspects error first. This keeps the new diagnostic
fully isolated from resolvePushEvidence's existing canonical try/catch:
a diagnostic failure can only ever produce workingTreeState: 'UNKNOWN'
on the RESOLVED path, never evidenceState: 'INVALID'. This matters
because ci-prepush-range-resolver.mjs's resolveManualEvidence() throws
whenever evidenceState !== 'RESOLVED' -- without this isolation, a
transient git timeout on the new diagnostic would have turned
otherwise-valid, already-verified #494/#498 evidence into a hard
pre-push rejection.

Propagated through resolveManualEvidence()'s evidence-file path
unchanged; the manual/no-evidence-file path (changedFilesFromManualRange,
direct `pnpm run ci:prepush` invocation) reports NOT_APPLICABLE, not
MATCHES -- there is no localSha and no push event in that mode, so no
comparison of any kind happens, and claiming MATCHES would assert an
equivalence that was never checked.

ci-prepush-lowend.mjs reports a non-blocking, informational line only
on DIVERGED or UNKNOWN (MATCHES/NOT_APPLICABLE stay silent) --
deliberately not coupled to the existing `full`-admission escalation
lever, since divergence and incomplete-change-evidence are different
failure modes with no shared remedy.

Deliberately not implemented in this slice (reserved for Part 2, an
isolated-localSha-worktree exact verification mechanism to be designed
fresh against then-current main): MATCHES is never treated as a skip
condition for exact verification anywhere in this codebase, in this
commit or otherwise -- proving tracked-content equivalence sufficient
to safely skip real verification would require also ruling out
untracked/gitignored drift, which is exactly what an isolated worktree
proves and a cheap diff cannot.

Tests: computeWorkingTreeState's runGit-error-vs-status-1 distinction
(the exact ambiguity this commit exists to close) tested directly via
injected runGit results; the UNKNOWN-does-not-mutate-evidenceState
regression proven directly, not just asserted in prose; tag inclusion,
deletion/manual NOT_APPLICABLE, and aggregation precedence (including
a mixed DIVERGED+UNKNOWN and MATCHES+UNKNOWN case) all covered
deterministically with no real git subprocess in the new tests.
Four pre-existing resolvePushEvidence tests updated to inject
worktreeMatchesCommit so they stay git-subprocess-free rather than
incidentally exercising the real default against fake SHAs.

README test-count badges resynced via `pnpm run sync:readme` (578
files / 6997+ tests).

Validated: full `pnpm run ci:prepush`, `pnpm run lint`, `pnpm run
typecheck` (4-checker), and both targeted test files all pass.

* fix(signing): prevent an injected runGit throw from escaping computeWorkingTreeState

The default runGit() never throws (spawnSync failures are captured
into result.error, not thrown), so this was unreachable through the
real production call path. But computeWorkingTreeState() is an
exported function with an optional dependencies.runGit override, and
its whole contract -- documented in its own QNBS-v3 comment and this
slice's commit message -- is that it never throws, so a diagnostic
failure can never corrupt canonical evidence validity via
resolvePushEvidence's outer try/catch. A future caller (or test)
providing a runGit-shaped dependency that throws instead of returning
{error} would have silently broken that guarantee. Wrap the call in
its own try/catch and return UNKNOWN, matching the existing handling
for a returned result.error.

README test-count badges resynced via `pnpm run sync:readme` for the
added regression test (578 files / 6998+ tests).

Validated: full `pnpm run ci:prepush`, `pnpm run lint`, `pnpm run
typecheck` (4-checker), and both targeted test files all pass.

* docs(signing): make computeWorkingTreeState's tracked-content-only scope explicit inline

chatgpt-codex-connector correctly observed that an untracked file can
make git diff --quiet <sha> -- report MATCHES even when that file is
absent from the pushed commit (e.g. an untracked ambient .d.ts
satisfying an import the real commit is missing). This is not a new
gap -- it is the exact, deliberately-scoped limitation this slice's
design already reasons through: MATCHES is documented (commit message,
PR description, the report() wording in ci-prepush-lowend.mjs) as
"no tracked-content divergence detected", never "verified"/"validated",
and is never used anywhere as a skip condition for real verification.

Widening this check to also flag any untracked file (e.g. via
`git ls-files --others --exclude-standard`) was evaluated and rejected:
it would reintroduce exactly the false-positive-on-an-unrelated-scratch-
file problem this design avoids by construction today (a benign WIP
file anywhere in the repo would mark every push DIVERGED, making the
signal noisy enough to lose developer trust), and closing the gap
soundly would additionally require ruling out gitignored/generated-
artifact drift -- at which point the "cheap detector" has grown into
the isolated worktree that is Part 2's job, not Part 1's.

Added a one-line inline comment at the exact call site making this
scope boundary explicit in the code itself, not only in the commit
message and PR description, since a reviewer found it non-obvious
enough to flag independently.

No behavior change. Validated: full `pnpm run ci:prepush`, `pnpm run
lint`, `pnpm run typecheck` (4-checker), and both targeted test files
all pass.

… isolation

Consolidated remediation for the #502 review epoch (Sourcery, CodeRabbit,
chatgpt-codex-connector).

Root cluster A -- fingerprint representation:
- defaultReadFileAtRef decoded git-show output as UTF-8 before hashing,
  while calculateDependencyFingerprint hashes raw filesystem bytes. A
  manifest with invalid UTF-8 bytes hashed differently on the two paths
  even when identical, reporting DIVERGED instead of MATCHES. Fixed by
  reading git-show output as a raw Buffer (spawnSync's default) instead
  of decoding it, so both paths hash the same bytes.
- Separately, a core.autocrlf=true checkout hashes CRLF working-tree
  bytes while the git blob is LF-normalized, producing a false DIVERGED
  for otherwise-identical manifests. Fixed with a binary-safe CRLF->LF
  normalization (latin1 round-trip, lossless for all 256 byte values)
  applied uniformly to both fingerprint paths inside the shared
  hashManifests -- one canonical representation, not two competing
  authorities. Scoped to this repo's always-text dependency manifests
  (package.json/pnpm-lock.yaml/pnpm-workspace.yaml/patches); no
  .gitattributes change.
- Both regressions are proven with deterministic byte-level tests:
  invalid-UTF8-byte fingerprint identity, and CRLF-vs-LF fingerprint
  identity.

Root cluster B -- diagnostic isolation:
- An injected worktreeMatchesCommit or dependencyStateForRef that throws
  propagated through resolvePushEvidence's canonical try/catch, turning
  a diagnostic-only failure into evidenceState: INVALID -- otherwise-
  valid #494/#498 evidence would be rejected outright. Fixed with a
  safeDiagnostic wrapper at both call sites (TAG and NEW_BRANCH/UPDATED)
  so a throw maps to the dimension's own UNKNOWN state, symmetrically
  for both diagnostic dimensions. Regression tests added for each.

False positive: CodeRabbit's "duplicate const shared declaration" claim
(tests/unit/signing.test.ts) does not match current HEAD -- there is
exactly one `shared` declaration per test scope; the file already
typechecks and lints clean. No change made; will reply with this
evidence and resolve the thread.
