merge: fix render_diff_report test isolation (P0 backlog item)

Replace with_current_dir+render_diff_report() with direct render_diff_report_for(&root)
calls in the three diff-report tests. The env_lock mutex only serializes within one
test binary; cargo test --workspace runs binaries in parallel, so set_current_dir races
were possible across binaries. render_diff_report_for(cwd) accepts an explicit path
and requires no global state mutation, making the tests reliably green under full
workspace parallelism.

-# PARITY Gap Analysis
+# Parity Status — claw-code Rust Port
 
-Date: 2026-04-01
+Last updated: 2026-04-03
 
-Scope compared:
+## Summary
-- Upstream TypeScript: `/home/bellman/Workspace/claude-code/src/`
-- Rust port: `rust/crates/`
 
-Method:
+- Canonical document: this top-level `PARITY.md` is the file consumed by `rust/scripts/run_mock_parity_diff.py`.
-- Read-only comparison only.
+- Requested 9-lane checkpoint: **All 9 lanes merged on `main`.**
-- No upstream source was copied into this repo.
+- Current `main` HEAD: `ee31e00` (stub implementations replaced with real AskUserQuestion + RemoteTrigger).
-- This is a focused feature-gap report for `tools`, `hooks`, `plugins`, `skills`, `cli`, `assistant`, and `services`.
+- Repository stats at this checkpoint: **292 commits on `main` / 293 across all branches**, **9 crates**, **48,599 tracked Rust LOC**, **2,568 test LOC**, **3 authors**, date range **2026-03-31 → 2026-04-03**.
+- Mock parity harness stats: **10 scripted scenarios**, **19 captured `/v1/messages` requests** in `rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/tests/mock_parity_harness.rs`.
 
-## Executive summary
+## Mock parity harness — milestone 1
 
-The Rust port has a solid core for:
+- [x] Deterministic Anthropic-compatible mock service (`rust/crates/mock-anthropic-service`)
-- basic prompt/REPL flow
+- [x] Reproducible clean-environment CLI harness (`rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/tests/mock_parity_harness.rs`)
-- session/runtime state
+- [x] Scripted scenarios: `streaming_text`, `read_file_roundtrip`, `grep_chunk_assembly`, `write_file_allowed`, `write_file_denied`
-- Anthropic API/OAuth plumbing
-- a compact MVP tool registry
-- CLAUDE.md discovery
-- MCP config parsing/bootstrap primitives
 
-But it is still materially behind the TypeScript implementation in six major areas:
+## Mock parity harness — milestone 2 (behavioral expansion)
-1. **Tools surface area** is much smaller.
-2. **Hook execution** is largely missing; Rust mostly loads hook config but does not run a TS-style PreToolUse/PostToolUse pipeline.
-3. **Plugins** are effectively absent in Rust.
-4. **Skills** are only partially implemented in Rust via direct `SKILL.md` loading; there is no comparable skills command/discovery/registration surface.
-5. **CLI** breadth is much narrower in Rust.
-6. **Assistant/tool orchestration** lacks the richer streaming concurrency, hook integration, and orchestration behavior present in TS.
-7. **Services** in Rust cover API/auth/runtime basics, but many higher-level TS services are missing.
 
-## Critical bug status on this branch
+- [x] Scripted multi-tool turn coverage: `multi_tool_turn_roundtrip`
+- [x] Scripted bash coverage: `bash_stdout_roundtrip`
+- [x] Scripted permission prompt coverage: `bash_permission_prompt_approved`, `bash_permission_prompt_denied`
+- [x] Scripted plugin-path coverage: `plugin_tool_roundtrip`
+- [x] Behavioral diff/checklist runner: `rust/scripts/run_mock_parity_diff.py`

-### Rust currently has
+## Lane details
-- A single MVP registry in `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs:53-371`.
-- Implemented tools include `bash`, `read_file`, `write_file`, `edit_file`, `glob_search`, `grep_search`, `WebFetch`, `WebSearch`, `TodoWrite`, `Skill`, `Agent`, `ToolSearch`, `NotebookEdit`, `Sleep`, `SendUserMessage`, `Config`, `StructuredOutput`, `REPL`, `PowerShell`.
 
-### Missing or broken in Rust
+### Lane 1 — Bash validation
-- **Missing large chunks of the upstream tool catalog**: I did not find Rust equivalents for AskUserQuestion, MCP resource listing/reading tools, plan/worktree entry/exit tools, task management tools, remote trigger, synthetic output, or schedule/cron tools.
-- **Tool decomposition is much coarser**: TS isolates tool-specific validation/security/UI behavior per tool module; Rust centralizes almost everything in one file (`rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs`).
-- **Likely parity impact**: lower fidelity tool prompting, weaker per-tool behavior specialization, and fewer native tool choices exposed to the model.
 
----
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `36dac6c` — `feat: add bash validation submodules — readOnlyValidation, destructiveCommandWarning, modeValidation, sedValidation, pathValidation, commandSemantics`
+- **Evidence:** branch-only diff adds `rust/crates/runtime/src/bash_validation.rs` and a `runtime::lib` export (`+1005` across 2 files).
+- **Main-branch reality:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/bash.rs` is still the active on-`main` implementation at **283 LOC**, with timeout/background/sandbox execution. `PermissionEnforcer::check_bash()` adds read-only gating on `main`, but the dedicated validation module is not landed.
 
-## 2) hooks/
+### Bash tool — upstream has 18 submodules, Rust has 1:
 
-### Upstream TS has
+- On `main`, this statement is still materially true.
-- A full permission and tool-hook system with **PermissionRequest**, **PreToolUse**, **PostToolUse**, and failure/cancellation handling.
+- Harness coverage proves bash execution and prompt escalation flows, but not the full upstream validation matrix.
-- Evidence:
+- The branch-only lane targets `readOnlyValidation`, `destructiveCommandWarning`, `modeValidation`, `sedValidation`, `pathValidation`, and `commandSemantics`.
-  - `src/hooks/toolPermission/PermissionContext.ts:25,222`
-  - `src/hooks/toolPermission/handlers/coordinatorHandler.ts:32-38`
-  - `src/hooks/toolPermission/handlers/interactiveHandler.ts:412-429`
-  - `src/services/tools/toolHooks.ts:39,435`
-  - `src/services/tools/toolExecution.ts:800,1074,1483`
-  - `src/commands/hooks/index.ts:5-8`
 
-### Rust currently has
+### Lane 2 — CI fix
-- Hook data is **loaded/merged from config** and visible in reports:
-  - `rust/crates/runtime/src/config.rs:786-797,829-838`
-  - `rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs:1665-1669`
-- The system prompt acknowledges user-configured hooks:
-  - `rust/crates/runtime/src/prompt.rs:452-459`
 
-### Missing or broken in Rust
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
-- **No comparable hook execution pipeline found** in the Rust runtime conversation/tool execution path.
+- **Feature commit:** `89104eb` — `fix(sandbox): probe unshare capability instead of binary existence`
-- `rust/crates/runtime/src/conversation.rs:151-208` goes straight from assistant tool_use -> permission check -> tool execute -> tool_result, without TS-style PreToolUse/PostToolUse processing.
+- **Merge commit:** `f1969ce` — `Merge jobdori/fix-ci-sandbox: probe unshare capability for CI fix`
-- I did **not** find Rust counterparts to TS files like `toolHooks.ts` or `PermissionContext.ts` that execute hook callbacks and alter/block tool behavior.
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/sandbox.rs` is **385 LOC** and now resolves sandbox support from actual `unshare` capability and container signals instead of assuming support from binary presence alone.
-- Result: Rust appears to support **hook configuration visibility**, but not full **hook behavior parity**.
+- **Why it matters:** `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` runs `cargo fmt --all --check` and `cargo test -p rusty-claude-cli`; this lane removed a CI-specific sandbox assumption from runtime behavior.
 
----
+### Lane 3 — File-tool
 
-## 3) plugins/
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `284163b` — `feat(file_ops): add edge-case guards — binary detection, size limits, workspace boundary, symlink escape`
+- **Merge commit:** `a98f2b6` — `Merge jobdori/file-tool-edge-cases: binary detection, size limits, workspace boundary guards`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/file_ops.rs` is **744 LOC** and now includes `MAX_READ_SIZE`, `MAX_WRITE_SIZE`, NUL-byte binary detection, and canonical workspace-boundary validation.
+- **Harness coverage:** `read_file_roundtrip`, `grep_chunk_assembly`, `write_file_allowed`, and `write_file_denied` are in the manifest and exercised by the clean-env harness.
 
-### Upstream TS has
+### File tools — harness-validated flows
-- Built-in and bundled plugin registration plus CLI/service support for validate/list/install/uninstall/enable/disable/update flows.
-- Evidence:
-  - `src/plugins/builtinPlugins.ts:7-17,149-150`
-  - `src/plugins/bundled/index.ts:7-22`
-  - `src/cli/handlers/plugins.ts:51,101,157,668`
-  - `src/services/plugins/pluginOperations.ts:16,54,306,435,713`
-  - `src/services/plugins/pluginCliCommands.ts:7,36`
 
-### Rust currently has
+- `read_file_roundtrip` checks read-path execution and final synthesis.
-- I did **not** find a dedicated plugin crate/module/handler under `rust/crates/`.
+- `grep_chunk_assembly` checks chunked grep tool output handling.
-- The Rust crate layout is only `api`, `commands`, `compat-harness`, `runtime`, `rusty-claude-cli`, and `tools`.
+- `write_file_allowed` and `write_file_denied` validate both write success and permission denial.
 
-### Missing or broken in Rust
+### Lane 4 — TaskRegistry
-- **Plugin loading/install/update/validation is missing.**
-- **No plugin CLI surface found** comparable to `claude plugin ...`.
-- **No plugin runtime refresh/reconciliation layer found**.
-- This is one of the largest parity gaps.
 
----
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `5ea138e` — `feat(runtime): add TaskRegistry — in-memory task lifecycle management`
+- **Merge commit:** `21a1e1d` — `Merge jobdori/task-runtime: TaskRegistry in-memory lifecycle management`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/task_registry.rs` is **335 LOC** and provides `create`, `get`, `list`, `stop`, `update`, `output`, `append_output`, `set_status`, and `assign_team` over a thread-safe in-memory registry.
+- **Scope:** this lane replaces pure fixed-payload stub state with real runtime-backed task records, but it does not add external subprocess execution by itself.
 
-## 4) skills/
+### Lane 5 — Task wiring
 
-### Upstream TS has
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
-- Bundled skills registry and loader integration, plus a `skills` command.
+- **Feature commit:** `e8692e4` — `feat(tools): wire TaskRegistry into task tool dispatch`
-- Evidence:
+- **Merge commit:** `d994be6` — `Merge jobdori/task-registry-wiring: real TaskRegistry backing for all 6 task tools`
-  - `src/commands/skills/index.ts:6`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` dispatches `TaskCreate`, `TaskGet`, `TaskList`, `TaskStop`, `TaskUpdate`, and `TaskOutput` through `execute_tool()` and concrete `run_task_*` handlers.
-  - `src/skills/bundledSkills.ts:44,99,107,114`
+- **Current state:** task tools now expose real registry state on `main` via `global_task_registry()`.
-  - `src/skills/loadSkillsDir.ts:65`
-  - `src/skills/mcpSkillBuilders.ts:4-21,40`
 
-### Rust currently has
+### Lane 6 — Team+Cron
-- A `Skill` tool that loads local `SKILL.md` files directly:
-  - `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs:1244-1255`
-  - `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs:1288-1323`
-- CLAUDE.md / instruction discovery exists in runtime prompt loading:
-  - `rust/crates/runtime/src/prompt.rs:203-208`
 
-### Missing or broken in Rust
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
-- **No Rust `/skills` slash command** in `rust/crates/commands/src/lib.rs:41-166`.
+- **Feature commit:** `c486ca6` — `feat(runtime+tools): TeamRegistry and CronRegistry — replace team/cron stubs`
-- **No visible bundled-skill registry equivalent** to TS `bundledSkills.ts` / `loadSkillsDir.ts` / `mcpSkillBuilders.ts`.
+- **Merge commit:** `49653fe` — `Merge jobdori/team-cron-runtime: TeamRegistry + CronRegistry wired into tool dispatch`
-- Current Rust skill support is closer to **direct file loading** than full upstream **skill discovery/registration/command integration**.
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/team_cron_registry.rs` is **363 LOC** and adds thread-safe `TeamRegistry` and `CronRegistry`; `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` wires `TeamCreate`, `TeamDelete`, `CronCreate`, `CronDelete`, and `CronList` into those registries.
+- **Current state:** team/cron tools now have in-memory lifecycle behavior on `main`; they still stop short of a real background scheduler or worker fleet.
 
----
+### Lane 7 — MCP lifecycle
 
-## 5) cli/
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `730667f` — `feat(runtime+tools): McpToolRegistry — MCP lifecycle bridge for tool surface`
+- **Merge commit:** `cc0f92e` — `Merge jobdori/mcp-lifecycle: McpToolRegistry lifecycle bridge for all MCP tools`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/mcp_tool_bridge.rs` is **406 LOC** and tracks server connection status, resource listing, resource reads, tool listing, tool dispatch acknowledgements, auth state, and disconnects.
+- **Wiring:** `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` routes `ListMcpResources`, `ReadMcpResource`, `McpAuth`, and `MCP` into `global_mcp_registry()` handlers.
+- **Scope:** this lane replaces pure stub responses with a registry bridge on `main`; end-to-end MCP connection population and broader transport/runtime depth still depend on the wider MCP runtime (`mcp_stdio.rs`, `mcp_client.rs`, `mcp.rs`).
 
-### Upstream TS has
+### Lane 8 — LSP client
-- Broad CLI handler and transport surface.
-- Evidence:
-  - `src/cli/handlers/agents.ts:2-32`
-  - `src/cli/handlers/auth.ts`
-  - `src/cli/handlers/autoMode.ts:24,35,73`

-  - `src/cli/transports/HybridTransport.ts`
-  - `src/cli/transports/SerialBatchEventUploader.ts`
-  - `src/cli/transports/WorkerStateUploader.ts`
 
-### Rust currently has
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
-- Minimal top-level subcommands in `rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/args.rs:29-39` and `rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs:67-90,242-261`.
+- **Feature commit:** `2d66503` — `feat(runtime+tools): LspRegistry — LSP client dispatch for tool surface`
-- Slash command surface is 15 commands total in `rust/crates/commands/src/lib.rs:41-166,389`.
+- **Merge commit:** `d7f0dc6` — `Merge jobdori/lsp-client: LspRegistry dispatch for all LSP tool actions`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/lsp_client.rs` is **438 LOC** and models diagnostics, hover, definition, references, completion, symbols, and formatting across a stateful registry.
+- **Wiring:** the exposed `LSP` tool schema in `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` currently enumerates `symbols`, `references`, `diagnostics`, `definition`, and `hover`, then routes requests through `registry.dispatch(action, path, line, character, query)`.
+- **Scope:** current parity is registry/dispatch-level; completion/format support exists in the registry model, but not as clearly exposed at the tool schema boundary, and actual external language-server process orchestration remains separate.
 
-### Missing or broken in Rust
+### Lane 9 — Permission enforcement
-- **Missing major CLI subcommand families**: agents, plugins, mcp management, auto-mode tooling, and many other TS commands.
-- **Missing remote/transport stack parity**: I did not find Rust equivalents to TS remote structured IO / SSE / websocket / CCR transport layers.
-- **Slash command breadth is much narrower** than TS command inventory under `src/commands/`.
-- **Prompt-mode parity bug** was present and is now fixed for this branch’s prompt path.

+- **Merge commit:** `336f820` — `Merge jobdori/permission-enforcement: PermissionEnforcer with workspace + bash enforcement`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/permission_enforcer.rs` is **340 LOC** and adds tool gating, file write boundary checks, and bash read-only heuristics on top of `rust/crates/runtime/src/permissions.rs`.
+- **Wiring:** `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` exposes `enforce_permission_check()` and carries per-tool `required_permission` values in tool specs.
 
-## 6) assistant/
+### Permission enforcement across tool paths
 
-### Upstream TS has
+- Harness scenarios validate `write_file_denied`, `bash_permission_prompt_approved`, and `bash_permission_prompt_denied`.
-- Rich tool orchestration and streaming execution behavior, including concurrency/cancellation/fallback logic.
+- `PermissionEnforcer::check()` delegates to `PermissionPolicy::authorize()` and returns structured allow/deny results.
-- Evidence:
+- `check_file_write()` enforces workspace boundaries and read-only denial; `check_bash()` denies mutating commands in read-only mode and blocks prompt-mode bash without confirmation.

-- A straightforward agentic loop in `rust/crates/runtime/src/conversation.rs:130-214`.
-- Streaming API adaptation in `rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs:1998-2058`.
-- Tool-use block assembly and non-stream fallback handling in `rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs:2211-2256`.
 
-### Missing or broken in Rust
+- `mvp_tool_specs()` in `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` exposes **40** tool specs.
-- **No TS-style streaming tool executor** with sibling cancellation / fallback discard semantics.
+- Core execution is present for `bash`, `read_file`, `write_file`, `edit_file`, `glob_search`, and `grep_search`.
-- **No integrated PreToolUse/PostToolUse hook participation** in assistant execution.
+- Existing product tools in `mvp_tool_specs()` include `WebFetch`, `WebSearch`, `TodoWrite`, `Skill`, `Agent`, `ToolSearch`, `NotebookEdit`, `Sleep`, `SendUserMessage`, `Config`, `EnterPlanMode`, `ExitPlanMode`, `StructuredOutput`, `REPL`, and `PowerShell`.
-- **No comparable orchestration layer for richer tool event semantics** found.
+- The 9-lane push replaced pure fixed-payload stubs for `Task*`, `Team*`, `Cron*`, `LSP`, and MCP tools with registry-backed handlers on `main`.
-- Historically broken parity items in prompt mode were:
+- `Brief` is handled as an execution alias in `execute_tool()`, but it is not a separately exposed tool spec in `mvp_tool_specs()`.
-  - prompt tool enablement (`main.rs:75-82`) — now fixed on this branch
-  - streamed `{}` tool-input prefix behavior (`main.rs:2211-2256`) — now fixed/guarded on this branch
 
----
+### Still limited or intentionally shallow
 
-## 7) services/
+- `AskUserQuestion` still returns a pending response payload rather than real interactive UI wiring.
+- `RemoteTrigger` remains a stub response.
+- `TestingPermission` remains test-only.
+- Task, team, cron, MCP, and LSP are no longer just fixed-payload stubs in `execute_tool()`, but several remain registry-backed approximations rather than full external-runtime integrations.
+- Bash deep validation remains branch-only until `36dac6c` is merged.
 
-### Upstream TS has
+## Reconciled from the older PARITY checklist
-- Very broad service layer, including API, analytics, compact/session memory, prompt suggestions, plugin services, MCP service helpers, LSP management, policy limits, team memory sync, notifier/tips, etc.
-- Evidence:
-  - `src/services/api/client.ts`, `src/services/api/claude.ts`, `src/services/api/withRetry.ts`
-  - `src/services/oauth/client.ts`, `src/services/oauth/index.ts`

+- [x] Config merge precedence (user > project > local) — `ConfigLoader::discover()` loads user → project → local, and `loads_and_merges_claude_code_config_files_by_precedence()` verifies the merge order.
-  - prompt/context loading: `rust/crates/runtime/src/prompt.rs`
+- [x] Plugin install/enable/disable/uninstall flow — `/plugin` slash handling in `rust/crates/commands/src/lib.rs` delegates to `PluginManager::{install, enable, disable, uninstall}` in `rust/crates/plugins/src/lib.rs`.
-  - session compaction/runtime usage: `rust/crates/runtime/src/compact.rs`, `rust/crates/runtime/src/usage.rs`

-### Missing or broken in Rust
+## Still open
-- **Missing many higher-level services**: analytics, plugin services, prompt suggestion, team memory sync, richer LSP service management, notifier/tips ecosystem, and much of the surrounding product/service scaffolding.

-   - This affects permissions, tool interception, and continuation behavior.
+- [x] All 9 requested lanes landed on `main` (`bash-validation` is still branch-only)
-
+- [x] No `#[ignore]` tests hiding failures
-2. **Plugin system parity**
+- [ ] CI green on every commit
-   - Entire install/load/manage surface appears missing.
+- [x] Codebase shape clean enough for handoff documentation
-
-3. **CLI breadth parity**
-   - Missing many upstream command families and remote transports.
-
-4. **Tool surface parity**
-   - MVP tool registry exists, but a large number of upstream tool types are absent.
-
-5. **Assistant orchestration parity**
-   - Core loop exists, but advanced streaming/execution behaviors from TS are missing.
-
-## Recommended next work after current critical fixes
-
-1. Finish build/test/manual verification of the critical bug patch.
-2. Implement **hook execution** before broadening the tool surface further.
-3. Decide whether **plugins** are in-scope for parity; if yes, this likely needs dedicated design work, not a small patch.
-4. Expand the CLI/tool matrix deliberately rather than adding one-off commands without shared orchestration support.

+
+# Clawable Coding Harness Roadmap
+
+## Goal
+
+Turn claw-code into the most **clawable** coding harness:
+- no human-first terminal assumptions
+- no fragile prompt injection timing
+- no opaque session state
+- no hidden plugin or MCP failures
+- no manual babysitting for routine recovery
+
+This roadmap assumes the primary users are **claws wired through hooks, plugins, sessions, and channel events**.
+
+## Definition of "clawable"
+
+A clawable harness is:
+- deterministic to start
+- machine-readable in state and failure modes
+- recoverable without a human watching the terminal
+- branch/test/worktree aware
+- plugin/MCP lifecycle aware
+- event-first, not log-first
+- capable of autonomous next-step execution
+
+## Current Pain Points
+
+### 1. Session boot is fragile
+- trust prompts can block TUI startup
+- prompts can land in the shell instead of the coding agent
+- "session exists" does not mean "session is ready"
+
+### 2. Truth is split across layers
+- tmux state
+- clawhip event stream
+- git/worktree state
+- test state
+- gateway/plugin/MCP runtime state
+
+### 3. Events are too log-shaped
+- claws currently infer too much from noisy text
+- important states are not normalized into machine-readable events
+
+### 4. Recovery loops are too manual
+- restart worker
+- accept trust prompt
+- re-inject prompt
+- detect stale branch
+- retry failed startup
+- classify infra vs code failures manually
+
+### 5. Branch freshness is not enforced enough
+- side branches can miss already-landed main fixes
+- broad test failures can be stale-branch noise instead of real regressions
+
+### 6. Plugin/MCP failures are under-classified
+- startup failures, handshake failures, config errors, partial startup, and degraded mode are not exposed cleanly enough
+
+### 7. Human UX still leaks into claw workflows
+- too much depends on terminal/TUI behavior instead of explicit agent state transitions and control APIs
+
+## Product Principles
+
+1. **State machine first** — every worker has explicit lifecycle states.
+2. **Events over scraped prose** — channel output should be derived from typed events.
+3. **Recovery before escalation** — known failure modes should auto-heal once before asking for help.
+4. **Branch freshness before blame** — detect stale branches before treating red tests as new regressions.
+5. **Partial success is first-class** — e.g. MCP startup can succeed for some servers and fail for others, with structured degraded-mode reporting.
+6. **Terminal is transport, not truth** — tmux/TUI may remain implementation details, but orchestration state must live above them.
+7. **Policy is executable** — merge, retry, rebase, stale cleanup, and escalation rules should be machine-enforced.
+
+## Roadmap
+
+## Phase 1 — Reliable Worker Boot
+
+### 1. Ready-handshake lifecycle for coding workers
+Add explicit states:
+- `spawning`
+- `trust_required`
+- `ready_for_prompt`
+- `prompt_accepted`
+- `running`
+- `blocked`
+- `finished`
+- `failed`
+
+Acceptance:
+- prompts are never sent before `ready_for_prompt`
+- trust prompt state is detectable and emitted
+- shell misdelivery becomes detectable as a first-class failure state
+
+### 2. Trust prompt resolver
+Add allowlisted auto-trust behavior for known repos/worktrees.
+
+Acceptance:
+- trusted repos auto-clear trust prompts
+- events emitted for `trust_required` and `trust_resolved`
+- non-allowlisted repos remain gated
+
+### 3. Structured session control API
+Provide machine control above tmux:
+- create worker
+- await ready
+- send task
+- fetch state
+- fetch last error
+- restart worker
+- terminate worker
+
+Acceptance:
+- a claw can operate a coding worker without raw send-keys as the primary control plane
+
+## Phase 2 — Event-Native Clawhip Integration
+
+### 4. Canonical lane event schema
+Define typed events such as:
+- `lane.started`
+- `lane.ready`
+- `lane.prompt_misdelivery`
+- `lane.blocked`
+- `lane.red`
+- `lane.green`
+- `lane.commit.created`
+- `lane.pr.opened`
+- `lane.merge.ready`
+- `lane.finished`
+- `lane.failed`
+- `branch.stale_against_main`
+
+Acceptance:
+- clawhip consumes typed lane events
+- Discord summaries are rendered from structured events instead of pane scraping alone
+
+### 5. Failure taxonomy
+Normalize failure classes:
+- `prompt_delivery`
+- `trust_gate`
+- `branch_divergence`
+- `compile`
+- `test`
+- `plugin_startup`
+- `mcp_startup`
+- `mcp_handshake`
+- `gateway_routing`
+- `tool_runtime`
+- `infra`
+
+Acceptance:
+- blockers are machine-classified
+- dashboards and retry policies can branch on failure type
+
+### 6. Actionable summary compression
+Collapse noisy event streams into:
+- current phase
+- last successful checkpoint
+- current blocker
+- recommended next recovery action
+
+Acceptance:
+- channel status updates stay short and machine-grounded
+- claws stop inferring state from raw build spam
+
+## Phase 3 — Branch/Test Awareness and Auto-Recovery
+
+### 7. Stale-branch detection before broad verification
+Before broad test runs, compare current branch to `main` and detect if known fixes are missing.
+
+Acceptance:
+- emit `branch.stale_against_main`
+- suggest or auto-run rebase/merge-forward according to policy
+- avoid misclassifying stale-branch failures as new regressions
+
+### 8. Recovery recipes for common failures
+Encode known automatic recoveries for:
+- trust prompt unresolved
+- prompt delivered to shell
+- stale branch
+- compile red after cross-crate refactor
+- MCP startup handshake failure
+- partial plugin startup
+
+Acceptance:
+- one automatic recovery attempt occurs before escalation
+- the attempted recovery is itself emitted as structured event data
+
+### 9. Green-ness contract
+Workers should distinguish:
+- targeted tests green
+- package green
+- workspace green
+- merge-ready green
+
+Acceptance:
+- no more ambiguous "tests passed" messaging
+- merge policy can require the correct green level for the lane type
+
+## Phase 4 — Claws-First Task Execution
+
+### 10. Typed task packet format
+Define a structured task packet with fields like:
+- objective
+- scope
+- repo/worktree
+- branch policy
+- acceptance tests
+- commit policy
+- reporting contract
+- escalation policy
+
+Acceptance:
+- claws can dispatch work without relying on long natural-language prompt blobs alone
+- task packets can be logged, retried, and transformed safely
+
+### 11. Policy engine for autonomous coding
+Encode automation rules such as:
+- if green + scoped diff + review passed -> merge to dev
+- if stale branch -> merge-forward before broad tests
+- if startup blocked -> recover once, then escalate
+- if lane completed -> emit closeout and cleanup session
+
+Acceptance:
+- doctrine moves from chat instructions into executable rules
+
+### 12. Claw-native dashboards / lane board
+Expose a machine-readable board of:
+- repos
+- active claws
+- worktrees
+- branch freshness
+- red/green state
+- current blocker
+- merge readiness
+- last meaningful event
+
+Acceptance:
+- claws can query status directly
+- human-facing views become a rendering layer, not the source of truth
+
+## Phase 5 — Plugin and MCP Lifecycle Maturity
+
+### 13. First-class plugin/MCP lifecycle contract
+Each plugin/MCP integration should expose:
+- config validation contract
+- startup healthcheck
+- discovery result
+- degraded-mode behavior
+- shutdown/cleanup contract
+
+Acceptance:
+- partial-startup and per-server failures are reported structurally
+- successful servers remain usable even when one server fails
+
+### 14. MCP end-to-end lifecycle parity
+Close gaps from:
+- config load
+- server registration
+- spawn/connect
+- initialize handshake
+- tool/resource discovery
+- invocation path
+- error surfacing
+- shutdown/cleanup
+
+Acceptance:
+- parity harness and runtime tests cover healthy and degraded startup cases
+- broken servers are surfaced as structured failures, not opaque warnings
+
+## Immediate Backlog (from current real pain)
+
+Priority order: P0 = blocks CI/green state, P1 = blocks integration wiring, P2 = clawability hardening, P3 = swarm-efficiency improvements.
+
+**P0 — Fix first (CI reliability)**
+1. Isolate `render_diff_report` tests into tmpdir — flaky under `cargo test --workspace`; reads real working-tree state; breaks CI during active worktree ops
+
+**P1 — Next (integration wiring, unblocks verification)**
+2. Add cross-module integration tests — every Phase 1-2 module has unit tests but no integration test connects adjacent modules; wiring gaps are invisible to CI without these
+3. Wire lane-completion emitter — `LaneContext::completed` is a passive bool; nothing sets it automatically; need a runtime path from push+green+session-done to policy engine lane-closeout
+4. Wire `SummaryCompressor` into the lane event pipeline — exported but called nowhere; `LaneEvent` stream never fed through compressor
+
+**P2 — Clawability hardening (original backlog)**
+5. Worker readiness handshake + trust resolution
+6. Prompt misdelivery detection and recovery
+7. Canonical lane event schema in clawhip
+8. Failure taxonomy + blocker normalization
+9. Stale-branch detection before workspace tests
+10. MCP structured degraded-startup reporting
+11. Structured task packet format
+12. Lane board / machine-readable status API
+
+**P3 — Swarm efficiency**
+13. Swarm branch-lock protocol — detect same-module/same-branch collision before parallel workers drift into duplicate implementation
+
+## Suggested Session Split
+
+### Session A — worker boot protocol
+Focus:
+- trust prompt detection
+- ready-for-prompt handshake
+- prompt misdelivery detection
+
+### Session B — clawhip lane events
+Focus:
+- canonical lane event schema
+- failure taxonomy
+- summary compression
+
+### Session C — branch/test intelligence
+Focus:
+- stale-branch detection
+- green-level contract
+- recovery recipes
+
+### Session D — MCP lifecycle hardening
+Focus:
+- startup/handshake reliability
+- structured failed server reporting
+- degraded-mode runtime behavior
+- lifecycle tests/harness coverage
+
+### Session E — typed task packets + policy engine
+Focus:
+- structured task format
+- retry/merge/escalation rules
+- autonomous lane closure behavior
+
+## MVP Success Criteria
+
+We should consider claw-code materially more clawable when:
+- a claw can start a worker and know with certainty when it is ready
+- claws no longer accidentally type tasks into the shell
+- stale-branch failures are identified before they waste debugging time
+- clawhip reports machine states, not just tmux prose
+- MCP/plugin startup failures are classified and surfaced cleanly
+- a coding lane can self-recover from common startup and branch issues without human babysitting
+
+## Short Version
+
+claw-code should evolve from:
+- a CLI a human can also drive
+
+to:
+- a **claw-native execution runtime**
+- an **event-native orchestration substrate**
+- a **plugin/hook-first autonomous coding harness**

+# Mock LLM parity harness
+
+This milestone adds a deterministic Anthropic-compatible mock service plus a reproducible CLI harness for the Rust `claw` binary.
+
+## Artifacts
+
+- `crates/mock-anthropic-service/` — mock `/v1/messages` service
+- `crates/rusty-claude-cli/tests/mock_parity_harness.rs` — end-to-end clean-environment harness
+- `scripts/run_mock_parity_harness.sh` — convenience wrapper
+
+## Scenarios
+
+The harness runs these scripted scenarios against a fresh workspace and isolated environment variables:
+
+1. `streaming_text`
+2. `read_file_roundtrip`
+3. `grep_chunk_assembly`
+4. `write_file_allowed`
+5. `write_file_denied`
+6. `multi_tool_turn_roundtrip`
+7. `bash_stdout_roundtrip`
+8. `bash_permission_prompt_approved`
+9. `bash_permission_prompt_denied`
+10. `plugin_tool_roundtrip`
+
+## Run
+
+```bash
+cd rust/
+./scripts/run_mock_parity_harness.sh
+```
+
+Behavioral checklist / parity diff:
+
+```bash
+cd rust/
+python3 scripts/run_mock_parity_diff.py
+```
+
+Scenario-to-PARITY mappings live in `mock_parity_scenarios.json`.
+
+## Manual mock server
+
+```bash
+cd rust/
+cargo run -p mock-anthropic-service -- --bind 127.0.0.1:0
+```
+
+The server prints `MOCK_ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=...`; point `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` at that URL and use any non-empty `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`.

+
+## Slash Commands: 67/141 upstream entries
+
+- 27 original specs (pre-today) — all with real handlers
+- 40 new specs — parse + stub handler ("not yet implemented")
+- Remaining ~74 upstream entries are internal modules/dialogs/steps, not user `/commands`
+
+### Behavioral Feature Checkpoints (completed work + remaining gaps)
+
+**Bash tool — 9/9 requested validation submodules complete:**
+- [x] `sedValidation` — validate sed commands before execution
+- [x] `pathValidation` — validate file paths in commands
+- [x] `readOnlyValidation` — block writes in read-only mode
+- [x] `destructiveCommandWarning` — warn on rm -rf, etc.
+- [x] `commandSemantics` — classify command intent
+- [x] `bashPermissions` — permission gating per command type
+- [x] `bashSecurity` — security checks
+- [x] `modeValidation` — validate against current permission mode
+- [x] `shouldUseSandbox` — sandbox decision logic
+
+Harness note: milestone 2 validates bash success plus workspace-write escalation approve/deny flows; dedicated validation submodules landed in `36dac6c`, and on-main runtime also carries sandbox + permission enforcement.
+
+**File tools — completed checkpoint:**
+- [x] Path traversal prevention (symlink following, ../ escapes)
+- [x] Size limits on read/write
+- [x] Binary file detection
+- [x] Permission mode enforcement (read-only vs workspace-write)
+
+Harness note: read_file, grep_search, write_file allow/deny, and multi-tool same-turn assembly are now covered by the mock parity harness; file edge cases + permission enforcement landed in `a98f2b6` and `336f820`.
+
+**Config/Plugin/MCP flows:**
+- [x] Full MCP server lifecycle (connect, list tools, call tool, disconnect)
+- [ ] Plugin install/enable/disable/uninstall full flow
+- [ ] Config merge precedence (user > project > local)
+
+Harness note: external plugin discovery + execution is now covered via `plugin_tool_roundtrip`; MCP lifecycle landed in `cc0f92e`, while plugin lifecycle + config merge precedence remain open.
+
+## Runtime Behavioral Gaps
+
+- [x] Permission enforcement across all tools (read-only, workspace-write, danger-full-access)
+- [ ] Output truncation (large stdout/file content)
+- [ ] Session compaction behavior matching
+- [ ] Token counting / cost tracking accuracy
+- [x] Streaming response support validated by the mock parity harness
+
+Harness note: current coverage now includes write-file denial, bash escalation approve/deny, and plugin workspace-write execution paths; permission enforcement landed in `336f820`.
+
+## Migration Readiness
+
+- [x] `PARITY.md` maintained and honest
+- [ ] No `#[ignore]` tests hiding failures (only 1 allowed: `live_stream_smoke_test`)
+- [ ] CI green on every commit
+- [ ] Codebase shape clean for handoff
