<id>urn:sha1:7bdcd58762c60c9501657b9df2983999f276f8b1</id>
<content type='text'>
Symptom: after bodies were rendered, this fix's own commit was missing from
its own entry, and a long URL inside an expanded detail was clipped at the
right edge on a 390 px screen.

Cause: items took group[:MAX_ITEMS] from a CHRONOLOGICAL list, so a 17-commit
build showed its first 14 and dropped the newest three (the count line said
"…and 3 more", hiding which three). And the injected detail CSS set no
overflow-wrap, so a 47-character URL pushed the paragraph to 320 px of
unbreakable text — the document stayed at 0 overflow only because the li
clipped it.

Fix: show group[-MAX_ITEMS:] and label the omitted ones "…and N earlier
commit(s)"; entry.commits follows the same slice. overflow-wrap:anywhere on
detail p/ul. The CSS block is now re-emitted from DETAIL_CSS behind
BEGIN/END sentinels instead of being write-once, and the first version's
sentinel-less block is stripped on sight so no page keeps two copies.

Verified: 390 px — p scrollWidth == clientWidth == 320, document overflow 0,
URL wraps; newest entry lists c759c50 and this commit; island 83 entries,
14 commit chips matching 14 shown items; CHANGELOG.md byte-identical on a
second run.

<title>fix(changelog): render the commit body, not just the subject</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1983ce5796e45b312b142554cb717db7f8978bc8</id>

Symptom: the mirrored CHANGELOG.md (and the page) showed one-line commit
summaries while README promises "every shipped fix, symptom -&gt; cause -&gt; fix -&gt;
verified". A reviewer measured the gap from the public mirror and could only
conclude the claim overpromised.

Cause: scripts/build-changelog.py:59 formatted commits with %s only; %b was
never read, so the verification prose every fix commit carries (5b55af9 is a
typical one) was discarded before rendering. The MD writer then replaced every
tag with a backtick, so nothing richer could have survived anyway.

Fix: read %b with a %x02 terminator (line-based parser, multi-line body), split
it into paragraph/bullet blocks capped at 900 chars with a visible marker, and
render it twice from one source: as a native &lt;details&gt; per item on the page
(its renderer already assigns item HTML, so no JS change; CSS injected once
behind a sentinel) and as nested bullets under the line in CHANGELOG.md. The
"every build" gap note and the page dek were rewritten to describe what the
file now contains.

Verified: page 100 details render, first opens 23 -&gt; 232 px with 3 paragraphs,
no horizontal overflow, island parses (83 entries); two consecutive runs are
byte-identical for CHANGELOG.md; the double-escape bug this surfaced (code
spans shipped as &amp;amp;lt;sha&amp;amp;gt;) is fixed and grep for &amp;amp;lt; is 0.

write_md() put the H1 + description inside the generated body and also kept
old[:m.start()], so each regeneration added another copy: 44 runs left 44 H1s and
pushed the first release to line 179. Only the region between the markers is
generated now, an existing file with N copies is collapsed to one, and an assert
refuses to write a file containing two generated regions (proven RED by injecting
a duplicate). Regenerated: 83 entries, 185 commits, first heading v4.6.146 (was
v4.6.135 - the file had not been committed since 2026-11-02).

<title>feat(newos4): configurable tool budgets, per-model defaults, real tool telemetry</title>

<id>urn:sha1:44e390f3e08acb3ad13daea0dbf365424eeb7d95</id>
<content type='text'>
Closes STEER-20261102-201234-7200 (read_file capped at 6000 while the schema
promised 32000).

Budgets (module-aiassist.js + new modules/core/model-profiles.js):
- one resolver, precedence: call arg -&gt; loop profile -&gt; model profile -&gt;
  ai-config -&gt; code default. Keys: read-page-chars, read-result-chars,
  tool-context-budget, fetch-chars.
- model classes tiny/small/mid/large keyed by id then by size token; `mid`
  reproduces the old numbers so nothing moves for a mid model.
- _clipToolResult now clips the `content` field, never the serialised JSON
  envelope: clipping the envelope deleted truncated/next_offset, so a 16k page
  lost its continuation pointer (the reported symptom).
- read_file's schema no longer promises a number the model class may not give.

Telemetry:
- _recordToolCall keeps sizes, duration, ok and a 120-char arg preview instead
  of the whole payload; ai-stats prints calls / ok% / avg ms / KB / truncation
  from localStorage webx11_tool_stats.

Server (api/proxy-api.py):
- /api/extract honours max_chars (default 12000, cap 100000) and returns
  content_chars + truncated; the bs4 branch is no longer uncapped while the
  regex fallback was silently cut at 10 000.

BEHAVIOUR CHANGE: num_ctx for a model with no explicit setting now follows the
class default (16384 -&gt; 65536 for cloud/large, 8192 for tiny). Cloud models bill
on tokens used, so cost is unchanged; local models get a bigger KV cache.

Two build traps, both now documented in AGENTS.md:
- model-profiles.js must be the FIRST entry in CORE_FILES and must export the
  MODEL_PROFILES global (a TDZ typeof throws; without the global every budget
  silently falls back to the code default).
- a budget key needs the setter branch AND the constructor loader at
  module-aiassist.js:49 - persisting without restoring looks fine until reload.

Verified: test-tool-context-bound 23/23 (RED before: E1-E4 + TypeError on
_toolLimit); live bundle read_page 32000 / result 12000 / budget 48000 /
fetch 12000 and _ctxTokens 65536 for gemma4:31b-cloud; /api/extract 28970 -&gt;
500 chars with truncated true; ai-config write+restore probe 6/6.

Tasks 3-8 of the chat-plane plan:
- cron newos4-chat-ingest (0cc4bb4d2f82, */10, script-only, silent when idle)
- collect.py: plan_key() normalises the two ledger spellings on read (5 rows
  carried a plan name without .md and were silently unmatched); per-item
  bulk_pass for the 2026-10-26 pass; counts.chat_total
- feedback.html: 5th tile "from chat"; card shows who closed an item and when,
  with a bulk marker
- triage: UNFILEABLE class -&gt; top_real now ranks actionable errors only
  (first row went from an 18 203 fetch failure to the 989 toLowerCase runtime
  error); network/abort signatures move to policy_noise
- AGENTS.md: the chat plane documented as an intake

The chat plane (api/chat/post.php -&gt; data/chat/*.json) was read by nothing in the
feedback pipeline: 22 report-like messages over 11 days produced 0 queue items.
This adds scripts/newos4-chat-ingest.py - a read-only scanner by default, --apply
writes RPT-* files in the report.php schema with diagnostics.auto=false so the
auto-reviewer leaves them for a human, deduped on (thread, msg_id).

First apply filed 5 items (2 x 2026-10-28, 3 x 2026-11-02); snapshot went
reports_total 23 -&gt; 28, awaiting_decision 0 -&gt; 5. Second run is silent.

<content type='text'>
Feedback queue triage 2026-11-02: 23 reports, 22 decided, 1 open -- and the open
one (RPT-20261029-115241, "[Terminal] Error in ShellModule.test: {\"silent\":true}")
was already fixed in v4.6.135 (4472c81, modules/core/terminal.js:1966) yet could
never be cleared by automation.

Root cause: identifiers() keeps only generic class names (Terminal, ShellModule),
both of which necessarily stay in the code, so R2 (every identifier absent) cannot
fire; R4 needs a stack and this report has none. A stack-less
"Class.method: {json}" console.error whose emitter gets *guarded* -- rather than
deleted -- therefore sits "awaiting decision" forever.

- newos4-feedback-autoreview.py: new R5 stale artefact -- auto report, no stack,
  every error count &lt;= 1, and nothing newer than STALE_DAYS=5 in
  data/debug/errors.json -&gt; resolve with the measured quiet_days as evidence.
  New --errors &lt;path&gt; knob so the rule can be run against fixtures.
  RED (pristine copy): "nothing provable (1 left for the operator)"
  GREEN (aged fixture): "resolve ... quiet 5.3d -- reopen if it recurs"
  NEG (live store 4.3d, and a report with count 21): both still refuse.
- admin/feedback.html: markDecided() patches the local snapshot, so a queued
  decision leaves the default "Awaiting only" list immediately instead of after
  the 10-minute sync rebuild. Measured cause of 3x approve on one plan in 3 min
  (10-30 16:03/16:05/16:05) and 6 items with duplicate rows.
- AGENTS.md: documents R5 and the fixture knob (also carries the already-live
  2026-11-02 cookie-notice paragraph that was pending in the tree).

<title>fix(newos4): pipe stage quoting, maintain ordering, help cost row, plan status (v4.6.131)</title>

Four items closed in one batch; three ran as parallel subagents on disjoint files, the bundle was
rebuilt once by the parent (rebuild-bundles.py serialises the working tree, which carries other
sessions' work — see 161372f).

1. PIPE STAGES KEEP THEIR QUOTES. `js "a b".length | wc -c` reached eval as `a b.length` and printed
   a ReferenceError. terminal.js executePipeChain() now keeps `stages[i]` aligned 1:1 with
   `pipeParts[i]` (the `.filter(argv =&gt; argv.length &gt; 0)` shifted the index; replaced by a lastStage
   scan + `if (argv.length === 0) continue`) and forwards the stage's own text to the dispatcher.
   The core path alone was dead code: ShellModule.init() replaces terminal.executePipeChain
   (shell.js:144), and that override is what runs in the browser (`executePipeChain.toString()`
   contained `cmdText.split`, not `lastStage`). Both now pass `cmdText`/`pipeParts[i]`.
   test-pipe-guard.js was rewritten for the new shape and now also asserts the shell override
   forwards raw text — the assertion that would have caught the shadowing. RED on HEAD: both flags
   false; GREEN now.

2. MAINTENANCE --fix CAN CLEAR ITS OWN WARN. check_index() ran before check_atlas(), which is what
   regenerates course/atlas.json, so --fix rebuilt modules-index.json from the stale atlas and the
   same WARN reappeared every run. check_atlas() now runs immediately before check_index().
   modules-index.json regenerated: cost/usage present, 349 commands, version 2026-10-29-atlas.

3. `cost` DOCUMENTED. modules/core/module-billing.js registers `cost [on|off]` (an alias of `usage`);
   help.html had no row. Added above the `usage` row. help coverage 362/363 -&gt; 363/363.

4. SHIPPED PLANS STOP ASKING FOR A DECISION. The applier only flips review&lt;-&gt;safe, so every executed
   review-gated plan kept counting as an open decision (5 of 5). newos4-feedback-collect.py now reads
   the body: a `## Status` / `## Implementation` heading followed by shipped|executed plus a version,
   commit or date is `status: done`; those stay in `plans` (visible as shipped) but leave
   plans_review and awaiting_decision. Counts: plans_review 5 -&gt; 0, awaiting_decision 4 -&gt; 1
   (the remaining one is a real open report, RPT-20261027-160751).
   admin/feedback.html read `it.status[0]`, which would render `d` for a string status; it now
   prefers `status_lines[0]`.

Also carried, authored by earlier uncommitted sessions and already live in the bundle (attributed,
not silently absorbed): modules/core/module-billing.js (new, BillingModule: cost/usage),
its CORE_FILES entry in scripts/rebuild-bundles.py, and the BillingModule registry entry in
terminal.js. The bundle was rebuilt from HEAD + this batch with ollama-manager.js taken from HEAD,
so another session's in-flight `_httpError` refactor is deliberately NOT in the shipped bundle
(grep -c _httpError core-bundle.js = 0).

<content type='text'>
Verdict was APPROVE WITH CHANGES: 21 findings, 17 fixed, 3 refuted with the command that killed
them, 1 kept with the audit that justifies it. The reviewer's best find was a design bug of mine,
not a typo.

- The age guard was unfixable by --fix and fired on a quiet week. check_changelog() regenerated only
  on a version mismatch, then returned from the version-match branch before the age check could act,
  so a page older than the threshold stayed red forever with the false diagnosis "the daily job is
  not running". Now --fix always regenerates (0.84 s) and age is read from a new `checked` stamp
  separate from `generated` (content-change time), which also stops a daily 65 KB rewrite of an
  unchanged page. Proved: seeded 641 h -&gt; FAIL + "run maintain --fix to refresh" -&gt; --fix -&gt; PASS.
- Atomic writes everywhere (temp + os.replace): nginx serves these files off disk, so an in-place
  truncate could hand a visitor half a page.
- The JSON island now escapes "&lt;/" (a commit subject containing &lt;/script&gt; would have closed it
  early and truncated the page). Proved by injecting exactly that subject: island still parses, no
  stray script tag, payload survives as data.
- Sibling drift is checked, not assumed: changelog.json's currentVersion is compared with
  LATEST_VER. Seeded v4.6.100 -&gt; FAIL "feed drifted", --fix repairs.
- Build tags are audited under --deep: 67 tags, each must be reachable from HEAD and name the
  version its commit tree carries. Proved by tampering (v9.9.9 on the root commit -&gt; FAIL) and by
  deleting it (-&gt; PASS).
- Feed: ids no longer hardcode 2026 or contain spaces, entries carry a &lt;link&gt;, timestamps are real
  iso-strict commit times instead of a fake T00:00:00Z on a local date, and summaries are truncated
  before escaping so no "&amp;l" tail. 0 ids with spaces, 0 broken entity tails.
- write_md refuses to overwrite a CHANGELOG.md that lost its markers; run() gained a 300 s timeout
  (a hung git used to block the whole 07:15 job); jumpToHash no longer stacks hint paragraphs;
  dead fields removed (KIND_ORDER, order, currentSynthesized, sourcesRead — each appeared exactly
  once in the page, i.e. only in the island the generator wrote).
- HTML nits: guide.html footer separator, empty "fixed in" line suppressed, help.html version
  bumped off v4.5.22. Header stat relabelled "Commits behind it" (it read "Bug records on disk"
  while counting commits — my own defect, not the reviewer's).
- Refuted: merge commits (repo has 0: `git log --merges | wc -l`), first-version board links (the 2
  multi-version notes both name the fixing build first), sources disclosure (the page already
  renders those module paths).

maintain --deep: node tests 20/20, changelog current, age 0.0h, 67 tags verified, result OK.
Mobile: ALL VIEWPORTS OK.

Tasks 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 of the changelog plan.

- 67 build tags (v4.6.10 … v4.6.119) now exist, so a build is a ref instead of something that has
  to be re-inferred: `git log v4.6.118..v4.6.119` finally means something.
- The generator prefers tags, but via ONE `git for-each-ref` pass rather than a `git describe` per
  commit. That matters: describe-per-commit made the build 2.4-2.7 s against a 1.0-1.45 s baseline
  — i.e. tags made it slower, which the plan's gate said to treat as "tags bought nothing".
  The right fix was a bulk lookup, not dropping the tags: now 0.80-1.04 s (median 0.84 s) with
  output byte-identical to the untagged baseline (68 entries, same version order).
- changelog.json + feed.xml (Atom) are generated from the same page dict: 36 KB / 21 KB, 68/68
  entries, both HTTP 200, item markup stripped so a reader gets text not HTML.
- check_changelog() now also asserts the page was GENERATED recently, not merely that its version
  matches: a version match survives a dead cron forever. Seeded a 26-day-old timestamp -&gt;
  "FAIL: changelog: generated 640h ago (&gt;48h) - the daily job is not running", maintenance FAIL;
