Add a super-intensive, adversarial plan-reviewer agent that runs after the plan
is drafted and BEFORE the approval gate, to catch wasteful or wrong design
before any implementation effort is spent. Verdict can be REDESIGN REQUIRED;
findings are sorted into Critical Gaps (block) vs Suggestions (non-blocking) so
the two never get conflated at the approval gate. It must open the codebase to
verify claims (files exist, "no existing impl" holds, "parallel" phases are
disjoint). Conditional trigger: 4+ phases / Orchestrator / Automated /
security|data-sensitive. Wired into SKILL.md, discovery-and-planning (Step 5.5),
agent-spawning (spawn pattern + opus model profile + cost), and
modes-and-strategies (most valuable in Automated mode, the only human gate).
Review hardening also addressed:
- test-writer derives assertions from acceptance criteria, not the diff, so a
failing test is signal (impl bug) rather than something to "fix" to match
buggy behavior
- early per-phase security/data pass for sensitive phases (not only final review)
- Outstanding Warnings ledger in PLAN.md so non-blocking warnings can't
accumulate invisibly across phases
- Automated-mode global circuit breaker (cost / agent-count cap)
- new `data` domain tag carrying a migration-safety addendum
Bump README Last updated date.
- Re-bench on 2026-05-26 against vex 1.9.1 and ast-index 3.41.0.
- Flag findings that flipped vs the 2026-05-18 snapshot:
- ast-index Python call graph now populated (was empty in 3.27)
- vex implementations now handles generic-parameterized subclasses (v1.7.0)
- vex usages is now AST-precise on T1 languages; ast-index is now the
textual-match tool, inverting the old precision finding
- vex now has diff --base <rev>, making the "only ast-index has
changed --base" finding obsolete
- vex now ships prebuilt Windows binaries; vex self-update works
- Document new vex 1.5 -> 1.9 commands: diff, paths, reachable, check,
bundle (symbol/pr-impact/project), eval, self-update, capabilities.
- Add README entry for the doc; it was previously missing from the index.
- Bump README "Last updated" to 2026-05-26.
Documents install on macOS/Linux (Homebrew) and Windows (cargo build
from source — no prebuilt Windows binary in v1.5.0). Includes per-project
bootstrap (.vex.toml with semantic + auto_update, vex index) and the
vex-mcp registration at user scope so it covers all projects.
Substantial revision of dolgolyov-git-release-publisher SKILL.md.
New steps:
- Step 2: pre-flight guards (branch, remote sync, duplicate tag, dirty tree)
- Step 4: pre-release checks - detect project type, inspect CI config, run
tests/lint/typecheck/build locally before tagging
- Step 15: post-tag CI watch (link-only or poll until run finishes)
Improvements:
- SSH remote support in Step 1
- Detect prerelease tags separately in Step 3
- NUL-separated git log + BREAKING CHANGE: body scan in Step 5
- Prerelease version bumps (-rc.N / -beta.N / -alpha.N) in Step 8
- Mode A (RELEASE_NOTES.md overwrite) vs Mode B (CHANGELOG.md prepend) in Step 11
- Signed-tag detection in Step 14
New edge cases: redo-after-CI-failure flow, signed tags, tag-already-on-HEAD.
Also updates the one-line description in claude-code-tools.md and bumps
README last-updated date.
Standalone workflow: push v* tag → create Gitea release with
optional RELEASE_NOTES.md. No builds or artifacts — just the
release entry. Links to full CI/CD guide for extensions.
- Move ECC setup guide reference from README to claude-code-tools.md
- Add CLAUDE.md with mandatory README sync rule
- Add "Last updated" date to README
- README is now a clean index of repo contents
Separate AST Index into its own Skills section, add descriptions
for both extension mechanisms, and fix markdown lint warnings.
