Summary

Reframes two advisory-only framing defects in the planning plugin's interview skill's session-config guidance (context/session-config.md, mirrored in SKILL.md). Doc-wording only — no gate, no behavior change.

Fix

  • Mid-task rule read as a runtime imperative to a nonexistent actor. "Inverse direction — mid-task" told an executing session to "surface" and "recommend" an upgrade, but /interview terminates at handoff and nothing wires that context into whatever session executes next, so read as runtime behavior it never fires. Reframed as a watch-for the interview hands the user at handoff, consistent with the file's own advisory-framing section ("Advisory framing — you cannot read the current config").
  • General/terminal sessions were told to configure a session that will never exist. The recommendation's header and the "Both domains" section both framed the output as config for "the downstream execution session," but SKILL.md Step 5 makes a general session terminal with no downstream consumer. General sessions now frame the recommendation as config for the current/next session, applied now; the deliberate "Both domains" scope (recommend for engineering and general sessions alike) is preserved.

Both SKILL.md's summary and context/session-config.md's full detail were updated in lockstep so they stay consistent.

Verification

  • skill-quality:check (check-skill.sh interview) — PASS, 0 errors, 2 pre-existing warnings unrelated to this change (soft line-count target, description trigger phrasing).
  • SKILL.md stays within the repo's 500-line hard cap (259/500).
  • Manual re-read of both files confirms: no session-config prose reads as a runtime imperative to a nonexistent downstream session; general-session guidance is framed as current/next-session config; the "Both domains" scope is retained — matching the issue's acceptance criteria.

Closes #822

Sweep-converted from #657, per the issue.

Two advisory-only framing defects in the interview skill's
session-config guidance:

- The mid-task "raise the model/effort" rule was phrased as an
  imperative to an executing actor, but /interview terminates at
  handoff and never wires that context into whatever session executes
  next. Reframed as a watch-for the interview hands the user at
  handoff, matching the file's own advisory-framing discipline.
- The recommendation's header framed itself as configuring "the
  downstream execution session," which the "Both domains" section then
  extended to general sessions even though a general session is
  terminal with no downstream consumer (SKILL.md Step 5). General
  sessions now frame the recommendation as config for the
  current/next session, applied now; the "Both domains" scope is
  unchanged.

No gate or behavior change — doc wording only.

PR Review

  • Gather context and understand the request
  • Read changed files and PR diff
  • Review changes for correctness and consistency
  • Post review feedback

This is a clean, well-executed documentation fix. The two framing defects described in the PR body are real and the rewrites address them precisely.

Findings

No blocking issues found. The changes are accurate, internally consistent, and correctly scoped to doc wording with no behavioral change.

What was verified

Defect 1 — Mid-task rule as runtime imperative. The old "Inverse direction — mid-task" section read as an instruction to an executing session ("surface 'too complex for the current model/effort' when execution warrants"). But /interview terminates at handoff per Step 5, so there is no executing actor to receive that instruction. The reframe correctly converts this to a watch-for handed to the user at handoff — consistent with the file's own "Advisory framing" section (lines 70–77 of session-config.md) which already establishes that the skill cannot read current config and must frame output as a delta the user applies.

Defect 2 — General sessions told to configure a nonexistent downstream session. The old "Both domains" section and the SKILL.md header both framed the recommendation as config for "the downstream execution session," but a general session is terminal (SKILL.md Step 5, line 190). The fix correctly differentiates: engineering sessions configure the downstream session; general/terminal sessions configure the current/next session, applied now. The "Both domains" scope (recommendation applies to both engineering and general sessions) is properly preserved.

Lockstep consistency between SKILL.md and session-config.md. Both files were updated in parallel. The SKILL.md summary accurately describes the behavior and refers to session-config.md for full detail; the full detail in session-config.md expands on the summary without contradiction. Checked specifically:

  • Header framing: consistent
  • Mid-task / inverse direction: consistent
  • "Both domains" scope and terminal-session framing: consistent

Version bump: 0.24.00.24.1 is correct for a doc-only fix (semver patch).

CHANGELOG: Follows Keep a Changelog format; accurately describes both sub-defects.

Minor observation (non-blocking)

SKILL.md (line 205) uses "current/next session" (slash-condensed); session-config.md (line 87) spells it out as "current or next session." These mean the same thing — the slash form is the natural condensation for the shorter SKILL.md summary, and the spelled-out "or" is clearer in the longer reference doc. No change needed.

Summary

Both framing defects are accurately diagnosed and cleanly fixed. Internal consistency holds across the two files, the version bump is appropriate, and no behavioral change is introduced. Ready to merge.

No security issues found.

This PR is a documentation-only change — advisory text reframing in SKILL.md and context/session-config.md, a version bump in plugin.json, and a CHANGELOG entry. None of the four changed files introduce code execution paths, external calls, credential handling, permission changes, or any other attack surface.

Specific checks performed:

  • plugin.json — minor semver bump (0.24.0 → 0.24.1), no dependency additions or permission-widening changes.
  • SKILL.md — the pre-computed context shell blocks (!git branch..., `!`git log..., !git status...``) are unchanged; the diff touches only the advisory prose in ## Session-config recommendation. No new command injection surfaces or untrusted-input expansions introduced.
  • session-config.md — pure advisory prose. The referenced URLs (code.claude.com/docs/..., claude.com/blog/...) appear only as instructional text telling the model where to fetch from at runtime; no new outbound fetch vectors are added by this PR.
  • CHANGELOG.md — prose only, no executable content.

No GitHub Actions files were modified. No supply-chain or dependency pins changed. No secrets, tokens, or credentials appear in any changed file.

  • Post findings

This is a clean, well-scoped documentation fix. Both framing defects described in the PR body are real and accurately addressed.

What was verified

Defect 1 — Mid-task rule as runtime imperative to a nonexistent actor.

The old "Inverse direction — mid-task" section instructed an executing actor to "surface 'too complex for the current model/effort'" and recommend an upgrade. But /interview terminates at handoff (SKILL.md Step 5) and there is no wiring from the interview into whatever session executes next — so that instruction had no receiver. The fix correctly converts this into a user-facing watch-for delivered at handoff: "if execution starts showing confidently-wrong-despite-context or under-exploration/under-verification, that is their cue to raise the corresponding knob." This matches the file's own "Advisory framing" section (session-config.md lines 70–77), which already establishes the skill cannot read current config and must frame output as a delta the user applies.

Relevant permalinks:

Defect 2 — General sessions told to configure a nonexistent downstream session.

The old introduction and "Both domains" section both framed the output as config for "the downstream execution session," which the "Both domains" scope then applied to general sessions too. But a general session is terminal per SKILL.md Step 5 — there is no downstream consumer. The fix cleanly bifurcates: engineering sessions → downstream execution session; general/terminal sessions → current/next session, applied now. The "Both domains" scope (the recommendation applies to both engineering and general sessions) is explicitly preserved.

Relevant permalinks:

Lockstep consistency between SKILL.md and session-config.md.

Both files were updated together and stay consistent:

  • Introduction framing: both distinguish downstream (engineering) vs. current/next (general/terminal)
  • Mid-task / inverse-direction: both frame as a user watch-for at handoff, not an actor imperative
  • "Both domains" scope: both retain the recommendation for engineering and general sessions alike

Version bump and CHANGELOG.

0.24.0 → 0.24.1 is correct for a doc-only fix (semver patch). The CHANGELOG entry accurately describes both sub-defects and follows the existing style (no date on the version header, consistent with [0.24.0] and prior entries).

Minor observation (non-blocking)

SKILL.md L204 uses "current/next session" (slash-condensed); session-config.md L87 spells it out as "current or next session." These mean the same thing — the slash form is appropriate for SKILL.md's tighter summary prose; the spelled-out "or" is clearer in the longer reference doc. No change needed.

Summary

No blocking issues. Both framing defects are accurately diagnosed and cleanly fixed. Internal consistency holds across the two files, the version bump is appropriate, and no behavioral change is introduced. Ready to merge.

No security issues found.

This PR is documentation-only — advisory prose reframing across two markdown files, a patch-level version bump, and a CHANGELOG entry. Specific checks:

plugin.json — patch semver bump (0.24.0 → 0.24.1). No new dependencies, no permissions additions, no capability-widening changes.

SKILL.md / context/session-config.md — the diff touches only advisory prose in the session-config recommendation section. Checked for:

  • Prompt/instruction injection: The reframed text redirects guidance toward the user at handoff (a "watch-for") and away from a nonexistent downstream actor — this narrows rather than expands the instruction surface. No hidden directives or permission-escalation language introduced.
  • Command injection: The pre-computed context shell blocks (!git branch…, !git log…, !git status…) are untouched by this PR.
  • Fetch-surface changes: The doc-fetch URLs in session-config.md (lines 58–61) are unchanged. No new outbound fetch targets added.

PR Review

  • Gather context and understand the request
  • Read changed files and PR diff
  • Verify checklist.md change addresses Codex finding
  • Review for consistency across all five changed files
  • Post review feedback

This review covers the synchronized PR state (HEAD f0aff60) after the merge-with-main commit. All five changed files are consistent and correct.

Codex P2 finding — already addressed

The Codex review (on commit f772eaece3) flagged that templates/checklist.md Step 5 still directed both domains toward the "downstream session." That finding was either reviewing an earlier commit or missed the checklist diff. The checklist.md update is part of this PR and the current Step 5 reads:

Both: recommend model / effort / advisor per the live-doc-sourced session-config guidance (never a pinned model name) — engineering configures the **downstream execution session** it hands off to; general/terminal configures the **current/next session**, applied now (nothing downstream exists)

This matches session-config.md L85–89 and SKILL.md L204–206 exactly. The CHANGELOG entry for [0.24.2] even explicitly calls this out: "The handoff checklist's Step 5 is aligned to the same split."

Version bump (0.24.0 → 0.24.2)

The PR body describes the bump as 0.24.0 → 0.24.1, but the actual files show 0.24.2. This is correct: the merge-with-main commit (f0aff60) brought in the 0.24.1 devils-advocate change already on main, so this PR's bump land at 0.24.2. The CHANGELOG is accurate — [0.24.2] covers this fix, [0.24.1] covers the devils-advocate change above it. The PR description is slightly stale from before the merge but the committed files are right.

Consistency across all five files

File Key change Consistent?
SKILL.md L200–231 Header bifurcates downstream (engineering) vs. current/next (general/terminal); mid-task framing is a user watch-for
session-config.md L6–11, L84–100 Same bifurcation in intro and "Both domains"; "Inverse direction" converted to user watch-for
templates/checklist.md L12 Step 5 carries the same downstream/current-next split
CHANGELOG.md [0.24.2] entry describes all three locations (SKILL.md, session-config.md, checklist.md)
plugin.json Version 0.24.2

SKILL.md is 259 lines, within the 500-line hard cap. No behavioral changes; no new command surfaces; no security concerns.

Summary

No blocking issues. The Codex P2 finding is already addressed by the checklist.md diff that is part of this PR. All five files are internally consistent and correctly scoped. The version mismatch in the PR description is cosmetic (stale before merge); the committed state is correct. Ready to merge.

Compose version-bump collision: both sides bumped planning to 0.24.2.
Kept main's 0.24.2 "shell: bash" Changed entry; promoted the interview
session-config reframe (Fixed) to 0.24.3 and bumped plugin.json to match.

  • Gather context and understand the request
  • Read PR diff and changed files
  • Review changes for correctness and consistency
  • Post review feedback

This is the post-sync review following the merge-with-main commit (0493a3e). All five changed files are consistent and correct at HEAD.

What was verified

Version state (0.24.3). The PR description said 0.24.0 → 0.24.1, but the actual files land at 0.24.3 — correct, given two successive merge-with-main commits each found a version collision: 0.24.1 was taken by the shell: bash fix and 0.24.2 by the devils-advocate seam change already on main. plugin.json and CHANGELOG are in sync.

CHANGELOG [0.24.3] entry accurately describes all three locations touched by this PR (SKILL.md, context/session-config.md, templates/checklist.md) and the two sub-defects fixed. Entries for [0.24.2] and [0.24.1] correctly describe the main-track changes they introduced.

SKILL.md lines 201–233. The session-config recommendation section correctly:

  • Frames the target as "the downstream execution session when engineering work hands off, or the current/next session, applied now, when the session is terminal" (lines 204–208)
  • Converts the mid-task rule to a user-facing watch-for at handoff, not an actor imperative (lines 229–233)

context/session-config.md. The reference doc:

  • Intro (lines 6–11): consistent downstream/current-next distinction
  • "Both domains" (lines 79–89): correctly bifurcates engineering (downstream) vs. general/terminal (current/next, applied now); "Both domains" scope preserved
  • "Inverse direction — mid-task" (lines 91–100): correctly framed as a watch-for handed to the user at handoff — not an instruction to a nonexistent executing actor. Matches the file's own "Advisory framing" section (lines 70–77)

templates/checklist.md Step 5 (line 12). Reads: "engineering configures the downstream execution session it hands off to; general/terminal configures the current/next session, applied now (nothing downstream exists)" — directly mirrors SKILL.md and session-config.md. The Codex P2 finding from the earlier review commit is fully resolved.

Cross-file consistency. All three framing-bearing locations (SKILL.md summary, session-config.md full detail, checklist.md Step 5) are in lockstep on both sub-defects. No contradictions.

SKILL.md line count: 261 lines, within the 500-line hard cap.

Summary

No blocking issues. Both framing defects are cleanly fixed across all five files; the Codex P2 finding is addressed; all version and CHANGELOG bookkeeping is correct after two merge-with-main resolves. Ready to merge.

PR Review

  • Gather context and understand the request
  • Read PR diff and changed files at HEAD
  • Review changes for correctness and consistency
  • Post review feedback

This review covers the PR at HEAD (3cf7fa2) — the latest merge-with-main brought in 9533a14 (standards sync: touches only AGENTS.md and .editorconfig-checker.json) and 7688ae7 (declare shell: bash on dynamic-context skills). Neither touches the planning plugin's interview skill, so the PR's substantive changes are unaffected.

Version bookkeeping

plugin.json bumps from 0.24.3 (current main) to 0.24.4. Correct for a doc-only patch fix. The PR description's stated range (0.24.0 → 0.24.1) is stale from before earlier merge-with-main resolves; the committed state is right.

What was verified

Defect 1 — Mid-task rule as runtime imperative to a nonexistent actor. Confirmed fixed. SKILL.md L229–233 and session-config.md L91–100 both frame the mid-task signal as a user-facing watch-for at handoff, not an instruction to an executing actor. Consistent with the file's "Advisory framing" section (lines 70–77) which already establishes the skill cannot read current config.

Defect 2 — General sessions directed to configure a nonexistent downstream session. Confirmed fixed. All three framing-bearing locations correctly bifurcate:

  • Engineering sessions → configure the downstream execution session
  • General/terminal sessions → configure the current/next session, applied now
  • The "Both domains" scope (the recommendation applies to both) is retained

Locations verified in lockstep:

Location Lines Consistent?
SKILL.md intro 204–208
session-config.md intro 6–11
session-config.md "Both domains" 84–89
templates/checklist.md Step 5 12
SKILL.md mid-task 229–233
session-config.md "Inverse direction" 91–100

SKILL.md line count: 260 lines — within the 500-line hard cap.

CHANGELOG [0.24.4]: Accurately describes both sub-defects and all three affected locations (SKILL.md, session-config.md, checklist.md). Follows the existing style (no date on version header).

Security: No code execution paths, shell blocks, fetch targets, or permissions changed.

Minor observation (non-blocking, previously noted)

SKILL.md L207 uses "current/next session" (slash-condensed); session-config.md L87 spells it out as "current or next session." These mean the same thing — the condensed form fits SKILL.md's tighter prose; the spelled-out "or" is clearer in the longer reference doc. No change needed.

Summary

No blocking issues. Both framing defects are accurately diagnosed and cleanly fixed across all five files. Version and CHANGELOG bookkeeping are correct. The latest merge-with-main introduces no conflicts or interference. Ready to merge.

PR Review

  • Gather context and understand the request
  • Read PR diff at HEAD (2b392a0)
  • Review changed files for correctness and consistency
  • Post review feedback

This review covers the PR at HEAD (2b392a0) — the latest sync is a merge-with-main commit that pulled in changes through 8cd3e1d (feat(go): Go coverage — batch ecosystem entry + go-format hook plugin). None of those incoming main-track commits touch any of the PR's five files, so the substantive changes are unaffected and unchanged since the last reviewed commit (3cf7fa2).

What was verified

No new conflicts or interference from the merge-with-main. git log remotes/origin/main..HEAD -- plugins/planning/skills/interview/ shows no new commits landing on the interview skill since 3cf7fa2. The diff against current origin/main is clean and limited to the five PR files.

Defect 1 — Mid-task rule as runtime imperative. SKILL.md L229–235 and session-config.md L91–100 correctly frame the mid-task signal as a user-facing watch-for at handoff, not an instruction to a nonexistent executing actor. Consistent with the file's "Advisory framing" section (lines 70–77) which establishes the skill cannot read current config.

Defect 2 — General sessions directed to configure a nonexistent downstream session. All three framing-bearing locations correctly bifurcate engineering (→ downstream session) from general/terminal (→ current/next session, applied now), while preserving the "Both domains" scope:

Location Lines Consistent?
SKILL.md intro 201–208
session-config.md intro 4–14
session-config.md "Both domains" 81–100
templates/checklist.md Step 5 12
SKILL.md mid-task 229–235
session-config.md "Inverse direction" 91–100

Version and CHANGELOG. plugin.json is at 0.24.4; the CHANGELOG [0.24.4] entry accurately describes both sub-defects and all three affected locations. No version collision with current main (0.24.3).

SKILL.md line count: 260 lines — within the 500-line hard cap.

Security: Pre-computed context shell blocks (SKILL.md L12–14) are untouched. No new fetch targets, no permission changes, no executable content introduced.

Summary

No blocking issues. The merge-with-main introduces no conflicts or interference. All five files remain internally consistent, both framing defects are cleanly fixed, and version/CHANGELOG bookkeeping is correct. Ready to merge.

No security issues found.

This PR is documentation-only — advisory prose reframing across two markdown files (SKILL.md, context/session-config.md), a one-line checklist update (templates/checklist.md), a patch-level version bump, and a CHANGELOG entry. Specific checks performed against HEAD 2b392a0:

plugin.json — patch semver bump (0.24.0 → 0.24.4). No new dependencies, no permissions additions, no userConfig surface changes, no capability-widening changes.

SKILL.md — two distinct changes:

  1. shell: bash frontmatter addition (line 7). This is the one functional (non-prose) change in the PR. It pins precompute execution to bash, per the repo convention established in [0.24.2] for skills with ! dynamic-context injections. The three shell blocks themselves (lines 12–14) are untouched — all three are static, read-only git inspection commands (git branch --show-current, git log --oneline -5, git status --porcelain | head -10). No user input flows into them; no new command injection surface is introduced by the shell: bash declaration.

  2. Session-config recommendation prose (lines 201–235). The reframe redirects advisory guidance toward the user at handoff rather than toward a nonexistent downstream actor — this narrows rather than expands the model's autonomous instruction surface. No hidden directives, no permission-escalation language, no new tool invocations.

context/session-config.md — pure advisory prose. Verified:

  • Fetch-surface targets (lines 58–61): code.claude.com/docs/en/model-config, claude.com/blog/…, code.claude.com/docs/en/advisor — all unchanged. No new outbound fetch vectors added.
  • No credential or token handling present or introduced.

templates/checklist.md L12 — single-line Step 5 wording change. Template is copied into the consumer's working directory at runtime; the updated text is inert advisory prose. No new input-interpolation or injection path introduced.

CHANGELOG.md — prose only, no executable content.

No GitHub Actions files modified. No workflow permissions: changes. No dependency pins loosened or changed.

  • Read PR diff at HEAD (34ac0cd)
  • Review changed files for correctness and consistency
  • Post review feedback

This review covers the PR at HEAD (34ac0cd) — the latest merge-with-main pulled in ed6d829 (docs/work-items triage sync), which does not touch any of the five PR files. The substantive changes are unaffected.

What was verified

Defect 1 — Mid-task rule as runtime imperative to a nonexistent actor. Confirmed fixed.

SKILL.md L229–233 and session-config.md L91–100 both frame the mid-task signal as a user-facing watch-for at handoff, not an instruction to an executing actor. The language correctly targets the user ("hand the user a watch-for…that is their cue to raise the corresponding knob") rather than a nonexistent downstream executor. Consistent with the file's own "Advisory framing" section (L70–77).

Defect 2 — General sessions directed to configure a nonexistent downstream session. Confirmed fixed.

All three framing-bearing locations correctly bifurcate:

  • Engineering sessions → configure the downstream execution session
  • General/terminal sessions → configure the current/next session, applied now
  • The "Both domains" scope (recommendation applies to both) is retained
Location Lines Consistent?
SKILL.md intro 203–208
session-config.md intro 6–11
session-config.md "Both domains" 84–89
templates/checklist.md Step 5 12
SKILL.md mid-task 229–233
session-config.md "Inverse direction" 91–100

Codex P2 finding (checklist.md Step 5). Confirmed resolved. templates/checklist.md L12 no longer directs both domains to "the downstream session's" config — the Both: clause now mirrors the SKILL.md/session-config.md split exactly.

Version and CHANGELOG. plugin.json bumps 0.24.3 → 0.24.4 (correct patch increment after the two prior merge-with-main version resolves). CHANGELOG [0.24.4] accurately describes both sub-defects and all three affected locations. Follows the existing style (no date on version header).

SKILL.md line count: 260 lines — within the 500-line hard cap.

Security: Pre-computed context shell blocks (SKILL.md L12–14) are untouched. No new fetch targets, no permission changes, no executable content introduced.

Minor observation (non-blocking, consistent with all prior reviews)

SKILL.md L207 uses "current/next session" (slash-condensed); session-config.md L87 spells it out as "current or next session." Same meaning — appropriate condensation for SKILL.md's tighter prose vs. the longer reference doc. No change needed.

Summary

No blocking issues. The latest merge-with-main introduces no conflicts or interference. Both framing defects are cleanly fixed across all five files, the Codex P2 finding is addressed, and version/CHANGELOG bookkeeping is correct. Ready to merge.

  • Post review feedback

This review covers the PR at HEAD (8d6b718) — the latest merge-with-main pulled in 9316a61 (fix(guardrails): restore path-detection prefilter fail-open fix (0.9.8)), which touches no files in the planning plugin's interview skill. The substantive changes are unaffected and unchanged.

Version bookkeeping

plugin.json bumps from 0.24.4 (current main, confirmed) to 0.24.5. This is the correct patch increment — the previous branch version (0.24.4) collided with main, so the merge-with-main resolved it to 0.24.5. The CHANGELOG [0.24.5] entry is consistent. Both are correct.

What was verified

Defect 1 — Mid-task rule as runtime imperative to a nonexistent actor. Confirmed fixed.

SKILL.md L229–235 and session-config.md L91–100 both frame the mid-task signal as a user-facing watch-for at handoff, not an instruction to a nonexistent executing actor. Consistent with the file's "Advisory framing" section which establishes the skill cannot read current config.

Codex P2 finding (checklist.md Step 5). Confirmed resolved. templates/checklist.md L12 correctly carries the downstream/current-next split and no longer directs both domains to a downstream session.

SKILL.md line count: 260 lines — within the 500-line hard cap.

Security: Pre-computed context shell blocks (SKILL.md L12–14) are untouched. No new fetch targets, no permission changes, no executable content introduced.

Summary

No blocking issues. The latest merge-with-main introduces no conflicts or interference. Both framing defects are cleanly fixed across all five files, the Codex P2 finding is addressed, and the version collision (0.24.40.24.5) is correctly resolved. Ready to merge.

This review covers the PR at HEAD (46f0b66) — the latest merge-with-main pulled in 41eb9c5 (feat(disk-hygiene): gate unbounded scans of known-large targets at the engine). That commit touches .github/, .claude-plugin/marketplace.json, and various repo-level files, but none of the five PR files in the planning interview skill. The substantive changes are unaffected and unchanged since the last reviewed commit (8d6b718).

Version bookkeeping

plugin.json bumps from 0.24.4 (confirmed current main) to 0.24.5. Correct patch increment — no version collision. The CHANGELOG [0.24.5] entry is consistent.

What was verified

Defect 1 — Mid-task rule as runtime imperative to a nonexistent actor. Confirmed fixed.

SKILL.md L229–233 and session-config.md L91–100 both frame the mid-task signal as a user-facing watch-for at handoff — explicitly targeting the user ("hand the user a watch-for…that is their cue to raise the corresponding knob") rather than a nonexistent executing actor. Consistent with the file's own "Advisory framing" section (L70–77) which establishes the skill cannot read current config.

Defect 2 — General sessions directed to configure a nonexistent downstream session. Confirmed fixed.

All three framing-bearing locations correctly bifurcate:

Codex P2 finding (checklist.md Step 5). Confirmed resolved. templates/checklist.md L12 no longer directs both domains to "the downstream session" — the Both: clause mirrors the SKILL.md/session-config.md split.

CHANGELOG [0.24.5]. Accurately describes both sub-defects and all three affected locations (SKILL.md, session-config.md, checklist.md). Follows existing style (no date on version header, consistent with prior entries).

SKILL.md line count: 260 lines — within the 500-line hard cap.

Security: Pre-computed context shell blocks (SKILL.md L12–14) are untouched. No new fetch targets, no permission changes, no executable content introduced.

  • Check Codex P2 finding — evals.json eval alignment
  • Review changed files for correctness and consistency
  • Review version/CHANGELOG bookkeeping
  • Post review feedback

This review covers the PR at HEAD (ec102fb) — the latest merge-with-main is a sync commit pulling in guardrails and other main-track changes. None of the five PR files (SKILL.md, context/session-config.md, templates/checklist.md, plugin.json, CHANGELOG.md) are touched by the incoming commits. The substantive changes are unaffected and unchanged since the last reviewed commit (92706e4).

Codex P2 finding — evals.json alignment

The Codex review at 92706e4 flagged that evals/evals.json eval recommends-session-config-from-live-docs (id: 9) still uses "downstream execution session" language at lines 107 and 110, and suggested splitting or updating the eval to cover the new engineering-vs-general distinction.

Assessment: observation is correct but the framing of the risk is overstated; non-blocking.

The eval's prompt is:

/planning:interview me — I need to re-architect our authorization layer to support per-resource policies across three services, and I'm unsure which invariants can change safely.

That is an engineering session — re-architecting an auth layer is software engineering work. Under the PR's new framing, engineering sessions still configure "the downstream execution session," which means evals.json L107 and L110 remain accurate for that test case. The eval is not stale for what it tests.

What is correct in the Codex finding: there is no eval covering the general-session path — so no eval verifies the new "current/next session, applied now" framing for a terminal general interview. This is a real coverage gap, but it pre-existed this PR (there was no general-session eval before this PR either). The gap is not introduced here.

For a documentation-only framing fix, an uncovered behavioral branch in evals is a follow-up concern, not a blocker. A companion eval testing /planning:interview me — should we migrate our CI provider? (a general-decision prompt, not engineering) would close the gap.

Version bookkeeping

plugin.json bumps 0.25.0 → 0.25.1 (permalink). Main had already shipped 0.25.0, so this is the correct patch increment. The CHANGELOG [0.25.1] entry is consistent and accurate.

Consistency across all five files

Both framing defects are cleanly fixed and all five files remain in lockstep:

Location Change Consistent?
SKILL.md L203–208 Intro bifurcates downstream (engineering) vs. current/next (general/terminal)
SKILL.md L229–237 Mid-task framing is a user watch-for at handoff, not actor imperative
session-config.md L6–11 Same intro bifurcation as SKILL.md
session-config.md L81–100 "Both domains" retains scope; terminal-session framing is correct; "Inverse direction" converted to user watch-for
templates/checklist.md L12 Step 5 carries the downstream/current-next split
CHANGELOG.md [0.25.1] Describes both sub-defects and all three affected locations

SKILL.md line count: 268 lines — within the 500-line hard cap.

Minor observation (non-blocking, consistent with all prior reviews)

SKILL.md L207 uses "current/next session" (slash-condensed); session-config.md L87 spells it out as "current or next session." These mean the same thing — condensed form is appropriate for SKILL.md's tighter prose; spelled-out "or" is clearer in the longer reference doc. No change needed.

Summary

No blocking issues. The Codex P2 finding identifies a real eval coverage gap (no general-session eval), but the existing eval remains accurate for its own engineering test case, and the gap pre-dates this PR. Both framing defects are cleanly fixed across all five files, the latest merge-with-main introduces no conflicts, and version/CHANGELOG bookkeeping is correct. Ready to merge.

No security issues found.

This PR is documentation-only — advisory prose reframing across two markdown files (SKILL.md, context/session-config.md), a one-line checklist update (templates/checklist.md), a patch-level version bump, and a CHANGELOG entry. Specific checks performed against HEAD ec102fb:

plugin.json — patch semver bump (0.25.0 → 0.25.1). No new dependencies, no permissions additions, no userConfig surface expansion, no capability-widening changes.

SKILL.md — diff touches only the ## Session-config recommendation advisory prose (lines 210–240). Verified:

  • Pre-computed context shell blocks (lines 12–14) are untouched — three static, read-only git inspection commands (git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null, git log --oneline -5 2>/dev/null, git status --porcelain 2>/dev/null | head -10) with no user-controlled input. No new command injection surfaces.
  • Prompt/instruction injection posture: the reframe redirects advisory guidance toward the user at handoff rather than toward a nonexistent downstream actor. This narrows rather than expands the model's autonomous instruction surface. No hidden directives, no permission-escalation language.
  • $ARGUMENTS variable (line 18) is unchanged.

context/session-config.md — pure advisory prose. Verified:

  • Fetch-surface targets (lines 58–61): code.claude.com/docs/en/model-config, claude.com/blog/…, code.claude.com/docs/en/advisor — all unchanged, all Anthropic-controlled official domains. No new outbound fetch vectors added.
  • No credential or token handling present or introduced.

templates/checklist.md L12 — single-line Step 5 wording change. Template is copied into the consumer's working directory at runtime; the updated text is inert advisory prose with no new template variable interpolation or injection paths.

CHANGELOG.md — prose only, no executable content.

No GitHub Actions files modified. No workflow permissions: changes. No dependency pins loosened or changed.

Classification (merge-drive lane, amendment-round 16): VALID, deferred. recommends-session-config-from-live-docs (evals.json L107/110) still asserts the old 'downstream execution session' framing this PR's skill-contract change (general/terminal sessions now recommend config for the current/next session) is meant to move away from — the eval hasn't been split/updated to cover the new engineering-vs-general distinction, so it may keep passing on stale behavior. Not fixed in this PR (out of its stated scope, a docs/planning reframe). Filed standalone as #1083 rather than blocking this PR further.
