docs(pm-dispatch): collapse CLAUDE.md's four excerpts to rule, hook and anchor

[os-litant]

Part of #14685
Part of #13597

Item 3 of decision batch 3, ruled B. Verbatim from ruling comment 5520452691:

B — each of CLAUDE.md's four hand-copied excerpts collapses to one ⛔ rule sentence, the enforcing hook or override switch, and a pointer to the AGENTS.md anchor (about 30 lines). The two measured drifts (C4's "§9" pointer, C5's "~18 merges" figure the anchor does not carry) are fixed under this ruling. The charter sentence "the four rules are inlined here" is rewritten to say each is inlined as one sentence — the maintainer has ruled that change.

Governed surface (CLAUDE.md): this PR stays draft, no reviewers requested, no ready flip, no enqueue. The dispatching seat runs contract review and then requests human review.

Scope

One file: the repo-root CLAUDE.md. Nothing else in the tree is touched. AGENTS.md, the hooks and objectui's CLAUDE.md are explicitly out of scope for this flight.

Counts

Token convention is ceil(utf8 bytes / 4) — the convention scripts/check-skills-token-ratchet.mjs declares as TOKEN_CONVENTION (line 184), used here so the number is comparable with the published-skill ledger even though this file is not in that ledger.

file	lines before	lines after	lines delta	tokens before	tokens after	tokens delta
CLAUDE.md	86	36	-50	1369	524	-845

Whole-PR total is the same row: one file changed. Line ratchet ceiling for CLAUDE.md stays 86 — not edited here (the re-lock is a separate pass after all four flights).

Site by site

Line numbers on the left are origin/main at f3ae441fa2, where the file was 86 lines.

site	before	after	what happened
charter, :1-6	4 prose lines	3 prose lines	ruled rewrite: the sentence now says each of the four rules is inlined as one sentence, its enforcing hook, and a pointer to the AGENTS.md heading, instead of "the four rules ... are inlined here because missing any one of them wastes or corrupts other agents' work"
C2 claim-the-issue, :8-21	12 body lines	4 body lines	rule sentence kept (assign plus a claim comment carrying session ID and branch; re-read the comments); dropped the gh invocation, the "burn the same hours twice" narrative and the "implemented twice in one morning" incident; one clause now states there is no hook; pointer added
C3 worktree-first, :23-42	18 body lines	5 body lines	rule sentence kept (never edit a shared primary checkout, this repo's or a sibling's; one worktree per task per repo); dropped the fenced git worktree add recipe and the fail-open/precedence commentary; both hooks and OS_ALLOW_MAIN_EDITS=1 kept on one line; pointer added
C4 never-stash, :44-71	26 body lines	5 body lines	rule sentence kept (refs/stash is in the common .git dir, one shared LIFO stack, pop reports success); dropped the fenced replacement recipes, the four-ref-namespace enumeration and the incident narrative; hook, OS_ALLOW_STASH=1 and the self-test kept on one line; pointer added
C5 releases, :73-83	9 body lines	4 body lines	rule sentence kept (written centrally at release time, never a row per PR; a factual error is a docs-only PR or an issue); dropped the conflict-magnet narrative; the changeset input is named in place of a hook; pointer added
closing pointer, :85-86	2 lines	1 line	kept as a pointer, rewrapped to one line

Four ## headings are byte-identical to origin/main — verified with diff over grep '^## ' on both sides, so any grep or tooling that names a heading keeps working. Repo-wide grep for each heading text finds only CLAUDE.md itself, so no script or hook reads them today.

The two ruled drift fixes

• C4 drift — the "AGENTS.md §9" pointer. The shared-refs/remotes fact it pointed at lives in the unnumbered preface of ## Multi-agent working discipline, not in any numbered section; §9 resolved to nothing. The pointer is now spelled by heading text. The refs/remotes fact itself stays in AGENTS.md, which is where it is maintained.
• C5 drift — "~18 merges to main in a working day". A statistic the AGENTS.md anchor does not carry (the anchor row says "three PRs raced the same table inside one afternoon"). It left with the narrative it lived in; nothing in CLAUDE.md now states a merge-rate figure.

Every pointer resolves

Measured at this PR's head with grep -n in AGENTS.md. Headings are cited by text, never by line number; the lines below are evidence, not the pointer.

· CLAUDE.md

All runs below are at head 94f328e8ff (after git merge origin/main, no rebase). Exit codes captured by redirect before any pipe.

Also run outside any gate, since the file was edited: grep -naP for raw ASCII control bytes over CLAUDE.md — no match (exit 1).

NOT MEASURED, and why

• Token ratchet does not cover CLAUDE.md. It reports 36 authored bundle file(s), all under skills/**; grep -c CLAUDE.md over its full output is 0. Its green says nothing about this file. The token numbers in the counts table above are computed by hand under the same convention, not read from this gate.
• check:role-word and check:corpus-claim-drift do not read CLAUDE.md either. Both print their own population: Scanned: 224 .md/.mdx file(s) read across 2 root(s) — content/docs 190, skills 34. The repo root is not one of those roots. They are green and they are green about other files; they are listed because the flight brief named them, and they are reported here as not measuring this change.
• No repo-wide pnpm lint run. ESLint's population is JS/TS; this PR changes one Markdown file and adds, removes or moves no code, so no ESLint judgement about any file can change. Reported as a narrowing, not as a pass.
• CI is not awaited. Per the dispatch contract the report is delivered at draft-PR time; the always-runs tail named by dispatch-gates is CI's to run.

Judgement calls

1. 36 lines, not "about 30". Ruling B says "about 30 lines"; the flight brief permits up to 40 provided every kept line is a rule, a hook or a pointer. Every line here is one of those three. Getting to 30 exactly would have cost either a hook name, an override switch or a pointer.
2. The refs/remotes sub-fact left CLAUDE.md with the stash narrative. It was a parenthetical inside the C4 excerpt (the one carrying the §9 drift), not one of the four rules. Under B it collapses out; it is unchanged in AGENTS.md.
3. The ADR-0087 registries dropped from the releases block. The ruled shape names one input; the changeset is the one that applies to every PR. The registries stay in the AGENTS.md anchor row.
4. The closing "See AGENTS.md" line was kept, rewrapped to one line. It is a pointer, which the ruled shape admits, and removing it is not something the ruling asks for.
5. Headings kept verbatim including the ⛔ and the "(AGENTS.md Prime Directive Migrate documentation site to Fumadocs with monorepo structure and shared content #11)" suffix on the worktree heading, which is accurate at head.

• No repo-wide pnpm lint run. ESLint's population is JS/TS; this PR changes one Markdown file and adds, removes or moves no code, so no ESLint judgement about any file can change. Reported as a narrowing, not as a pass.
• CI is not awaited. Per the dispatch contract the report is delivered at draft-PR time; the always-runs tail named by dispatch-gates is CI's to run.

Judgement calls

1. 36 lines, not "about 30". Ruling B says "about 30 lines"; the flight brief permits up to 40 provided every kept line is a rule, a hook or a pointer. Every line here is one of those three. Getting to 30 exactly would have cost either a hook name, an override switch or a pointer.
2. The refs/remotes sub-fact left CLAUDE.md with the stash narrative. It was a parenthetical inside the C4 excerpt (the one carrying the §9 drift), not one of the four rules. Under B it collapses out; it is unchanged in AGENTS.md.
3. The ADR-0087 registries dropped from the releases block. The ruled shape names one input; the changeset is the one that applies to every PR. The registries stay in the AGENTS.md anchor row.
4. The closing "See AGENTS.md" line was kept, rewrapped to one line. It is a pointer, which the ruled shape admits, and removing it is not something the ruling asks for.
5. Headings kept verbatim including the ⛔ and the "(AGENTS.md Prime Directive Migrate documentation site to Fumadocs with monorepo structure and shared content #11)" suffix on the worktree heading, which is accurate at head.

Item 3 of decision batch 3, ruled B. Verbatim from ruling comment 5520452691:

B — each of CLAUDE.md's four hand-copied excerpts collapses to one ⛔ rule sentence, the enforcing hook or override switch, and a pointer to the AGENTS.md anchor (about 30 lines). The two measured drifts (C4's "§9" pointer, C5's "~18 merges" figure the anchor does not carry) are fixed under this ruling. The charter sentence "the four rules are inlined here" is rewritten to say each is inlined as one sentence — the maintainer has ruled that change.

Governed surface (CLAUDE.md): this PR stays draft, no reviewers requested, no ready flip, no enqueue. The dispatching seat runs contract review and then requests human review.

Scope

One file: the repo-root CLAUDE.md. Nothing else in the tree is touched. AGENTS.md, the hooks and objectui's CLAUDE.md are explicitly out of scope for this flight.

Counts

Token convention is ceil(utf8 bytes / 4) — the convention scripts/check-skills-token-ratchet.mjs declares as TOKEN_CONVENTION (line 184), used here so the number is comparable with the published-skill ledger even though this file is not in that ledger.

file	lines before	lines after	lines delta	tokens before	tokens after	tokens delta
CLAUDE.md	86	36	-50	1369	524	-845

Whole-PR total is the same row: one file changed. Line ratchet ceiling for CLAUDE.md stays 86 — not edited here (the re-lock is a separate pass after all four flights).

Site by site

Line numbers on the left are origin/main at f3ae441fa2, where the file was 86 lines.

site	before	after	what happened
charter, :1-6	4 prose lines	3 prose lines	ruled rewrite: the sentence now says each of the four rules is inlined as one sentence, its enforcing hook, and a pointer to the AGENTS.md heading, instead of "the four rules ... are inlined here because missing any one of them wastes or corrupts other agents' work"
C2 claim-the-issue, :8-21	12 body lines	4 body lines	rule sentence kept (assign plus a claim comment carrying session ID and branch; re-read the comments); dropped the gh invocation, the "burn the same hours twice" narrative and the "implemented twice in one morning" incident; one clause now states there is no hook; pointer added
C3 worktree-first, :23-42	18 body lines	5 body lines	rule sentence kept (never edit a shared primary checkout, this repo's or a sibling's; one worktree per task per repo); dropped the fenced git worktree add recipe and the fail-open/precedence commentary; both hooks and OS_ALLOW_MAIN_EDITS=1 kept on one line; pointer added
C4 never-stash, :44-71	26 body lines	5 body lines	rule sentence kept (refs/stash is in the common .git dir, one shared LIFO stack, pop reports success); dropped the fenced replacement recipes, the four-ref-namespace enumeration and the incident narrative; hook, OS_ALLOW_STASH=1 and the self-test kept on one line; pointer added
C5 releases, :73-83	9 body lines	4 body lines	rule sentence kept (written centrally at release time, never a row per PR; a factual error is a docs-only PR or an issue); dropped the conflict-magnet narrative; the changeset input is named in place of a hook; pointer added
closing pointer, :85-86	2 lines	1 line	kept as a pointer, rewrapped to one line

Four ## headings are byte-identical to origin/main — verified with diff over grep '^## ' on both sides, so any grep or tooling that names a heading keeps working. Repo-wide grep for each heading text finds only CLAUDE.md itself, so no script or hook reads them today.

The two ruled drift fixes

• C4 drift — the "AGENTS.md §9" pointer. The shared-refs/remotes fact it pointed at lives in the unnumbered preface of ## Multi-agent working discipline, not in any numbered section; §9 resolved to nothing. The pointer is now spelled by heading text. The refs/remotes fact itself stays in AGENTS.md, which is where it is maintained.
• C5 drift — "~18 merges to main in a working day". A statistic the AGENTS.md anchor does not carry (the anchor row says "three PRs raced the same table inside one afternoon"). It left with the narrative it lived in; nothing in CLAUDE.md now states a merge-rate figure.

Every pointer resolves

NOT MEASURED, and why

• Token ratchet does not cover CLAUDE.md. It reports 36 authored bundle file(s), all under skills/**; grep -c CLAUDE.md over its full output is 0. Its green says nothing about this file. The token numbers in the counts table above are computed by hand under the same convention, not read from this gate.
• check:role-word and check:corpus-claim-drift do not read CLAUDE.md either. Both print their own population: Scanned: 224 .md/.mdx file(s) read across 2 root(s) — content/docs 190, skills 34. The repo root is not one of those roots. They are green and they are green about other files; they are listed because the flight brief named them, and they are reported here as not measuring this change.

NOT MEASURED, and why

• Token ratchet does not cover CLAUDE.md. It reports 36 authored bundle file(s), all under skills/**; grep -c CLAUDE.md over its full output is 0. Its green says nothing about this file. The token numbers in the counts table above are computed by hand under the same convention, not read from this gate.
• check:role-word and check:corpus-claim-drift do not read CLAUDE.md either. Both print their own population: Scanned: 224 .md/.mdx file(s) read across 2 root(s) — content/docs 190, skills 34. The repo root is not one of those roots. They are green and they are green about other files; they are listed because the flight brief named them, and they are reported here as not measuring this change.
• No repo-wide pnpm lint run. ESLint's population is JS/TS; this PR changes one Markdown file and adds, removes or moves no code, so no ESLint judgement about any file can change. Reported as a narrowing, not as a pass.
• CI is not awaited. Per the dispatch contract the report is delivered at draft-PR time; the always-runs tail named by dispatch-gates is CI's to run.

Judgement calls

1. 36 lines, not "about 30". Ruling B says "about 30 lines"; the flight brief permits up to 40 provided every kept line is a rule, a hook or a pointer. Every line here is one of those three. Getting to 30 exactly would have cost either a hook name, an override switch or a pointer.
2. The refs/remotes sub-fact left CLAUDE.md with the stash narrative. It was a parenthetical inside the C4 excerpt (the one carrying the §9 drift), not one of the four rules. Under B it collapses out; it is unchanged in AGENTS.md.
3. The ADR-0087 registries dropped from the releases block. The ruled shape names one input; the changeset is the one that applies to every PR. The registries stay in the AGENTS.md anchor row.
4. The closing "See AGENTS.md" line was kept, rewrapped to one line. It is a pointer, which the ruled shape admits, and removing it is not something the ruling asks for.
5. Headings kept verbatim including the ⛔ and the "(AGENTS.md Prime Directive Migrate documentation site to Fumadocs with monorepo structure and shared content #11)" suffix on the worktree heading, which is accurate at head.

Item 3 of decision batch 3, ruled B. Verbatim from ruling comment 5520452691:

B — each of CLAUDE.md's four hand-copied excerpts collapses to one ⛔ rule sentence, the enforcing hook or override switch, and a pointer to the AGENTS.md anchor (about 30 lines). The two measured drifts (C4's "§9" pointer, C5's "~18 merges" figure the anchor does not carry) are fixed under this ruling. The charter sentence "the four rules are inlined here" is rewritten to say each is inlined as one sentence — the maintainer has ruled that change.

Governed surface (CLAUDE.md): this PR stays draft, no reviewers requested, no ready flip, no enqueue. The dispatching seat runs contract review and then requests human review.

Scope

One file: the repo-root CLAUDE.md. Nothing else in the tree is touched. AGENTS.md, the hooks and objectui's CLAUDE.md are explicitly out of scope for this flight.

Counts

Token convention is ceil(utf8 bytes / 4) — the convention scripts/check-skills-token-ratchet.mjs declares as TOKEN_CONVENTION (line 184), used here so the number is comparable with the published-skill ledger even though this file is not in that ledger.

file	lines before	lines after	lines delta	tokens before	tokens after	tokens delta
CLAUDE.md	86	36	-50	1369	524	-845

Whole-PR total is the same row: one file changed. Line ratchet ceiling for CLAUDE.md stays 86 — not edited here (the re-lock is a separate pass after all four flights).

Site by site

Line numbers on the left are origin/main at f3ae441fa2, where the file was 86 lines.

site	before	after	what happened
charter, :1-6	4 prose lines	3 prose lines	ruled rewrite: the sentence now says each of the four rules is inlined as one sentence, its enforcing hook, and a pointer to the AGENTS.md heading, instead of "the four rules ... are inlined here because missing any one of them wastes or corrupts other agents' work"
C2 claim-the-issue, :8-21	12 body lines	4 body lines	rule sentence kept (assign plus a claim comment carrying session ID and branch; re-read the comments); dropped the gh invocation, the "burn the same hours twice" narrative and the "implemented twice in one morning" incident; one clause now states there is no hook; pointer added
C3 worktree-first, :23-42	18 body lines	5 body lines	rule sentence kept (never edit a shared primary checkout, this repo's or a sibling's; one worktree per task per repo); dropped the fenced git worktree add recipe and the fail-open/precedence commentary; both hooks and OS_ALLOW_MAIN_EDITS=1 kept on one line; pointer added
C4 never-stash, :44-71	26 body lines	5 body lines	rule sentence kept (refs/stash is in the common .git dir, one shared LIFO stack, pop reports success); dropped the fenced replacement recipes, the four-ref-namespace enumeration and the incident narrative; hook, OS_ALLOW_STASH=1 and the self-test kept on one line; pointer added
C5 releases, :73-83	9 body lines	4 body lines	rule sentence kept (written centrally at release time, never a row per PR; a factual error is a docs-only PR or an issue); dropped the conflict-magnet narrative; the changeset input is named in place of a hook; pointer added
closing pointer, :85-86	2 lines	1 line	kept as a pointer, rewrapped to one line

Four ## headings are byte-identical to origin/main — verified with diff over grep '^## ' on both sides, so any grep or tooling that names a heading keeps working. Repo-wide grep for each heading text finds only CLAUDE.md itself, so no script or hook reads them today.

The two ruled drift fixes

• C4 drift — the "AGENTS.md §9" pointer. The shared-refs/remotes fact it pointed at lives in the unnumbered preface of ## Multi-agent working discipline, not in any numbered section; §9 resolved to nothing. The pointer is now spelled by heading text. The refs/remotes fact itself stays in AGENTS.md, which is where it is maintained.
• C5 drift — "~18 merges to main in a working day". A statistic the AGENTS.md anchor does not carry (the anchor row says "three PRs raced the same table inside one afternoon"). It left with the narrative it lived in; nothing in CLAUDE.md now states a merge-rate figure.

Every pointer resolves

Measured at this PR's head with grep -n in AGENTS.md. Headings are cited by text, never by line number; the lines below are evidence, not the pointer.
