* fix(hooks): fail open on oversized stdin instead of echoing truncated JSON (#2222)
run-with-flags.js capped stdin at 1MB but every fallthrough path still
echoed the truncated string to stdout. The harness parses hook stdout as
JSON, got a document cut mid-stream, and blocked the tool call — so any
Edit/Write with a >1MB hook payload was permanently blocked by every
registered pre-write hook, before ECC_HOOK_PROFILE / ECC_DISABLED_HOOKS
gating could run.
- Exit 0 with empty stdout (no opinion) when the stdin cap trips, before
any echo or gating logic.
- Flush stdout via write callback before process.exit: exiting right
after stdout.write() dropped everything past the ~64KB pipe buffer,
cutting even sub-cap pass-through payloads mid-JSON.
Regression tests cover the enabled, disabled, and missing-arg paths for
oversized payloads plus full echo of sub-cap >64KB payloads.
* fix(codex): stop emitting invalid exa url entry, align merge with connector policy (#2224)
The Codex MCP merge declared exa with a url key, but Codex's
[mcp_servers.*] TOML schema is stdio-only — the url key makes the
entire config.toml fail to load, bricking both the codex CLI and the
desktop app. Every install/update re-injected the line because the
urlEntry branch treated the broken entry as present.
- ECC_SERVERS now emits only the current default set per
docs/MCP-CONNECTOR-POLICY.md: chrome-devtools (stdio, command/args).
Retired servers (supabase, playwright, context7, exa, github, memory,
sequential-thinking) are never re-emitted; existing user-managed
entries are untouched.
- The merge now repairs the exact ECC-emitted broken form (url-only
exa entry) on every run so re-running the installer fixes broken
configs instead of preserving them. User stdio exa entries
(command + mcp-remote) are left alone.
- check-codex-global-state.sh requires chrome-devtools instead of the
retired set, and flags url-only exa entries with a repair hint.
Tests cover repair, re-run idempotence, stdio-entry preservation, and
no-retired-server emission in add, update, dry-run, and disabled modes.
* fix(hooks): never echo truncated stdin from Stop hooks (#2090)
Stop hooks follow the ECC pass-through convention (echo stdin on
stdout), but every echoing Stop hook capped stdin and echoed the capped
string. The Stop payload carries last_assistant_message, so a long
final assistant message produced a JSON document cut mid-stream on
stdout, which the harness reports as 'Stop hook error: JSON validation
failed' across the whole Stop chain.
Reproduced: a Stop payload with a >64KB last_assistant_message run
through run-with-flags + cost-tracker emitted exactly 65536 bytes of
invalid JSON (cost-tracker capped stdin at 64KB — far below realistic
Stop payloads).
- cost-tracker: raise the cap to 1MB (matching all other hooks) and
suppress the pass-through echo when stdin was truncated.
- check-console-log, stop-format-typecheck, desktop-notify: suppress
the echo when stdin was truncated; flush stdout before process.exit
so sub-cap payloads are not cut at the ~64KB pipe buffer.
- All hooks keep exiting 0 (fail-open); diagnostics go to stderr.
New stop-hooks-stdout test asserts the contract for every registered
Stop hook: stdout is empty or valid JSON, exit code 0 — for realistic
100KB payloads and oversized >1MB payloads, via the production runner
and via direct invocation. Updated the old hooks.test.js case that
codified the truncated-echo behavior.
* fix(hooks): dampen GateGuard fact-force repetition in long sessions (#2142)
In long autonomous sessions the fact-force gate produced 10+
near-identical 'state facts -> blocked -> restate -> retry' blocks in
one context window, which measurably raises the odds of the model
collapsing into a degenerate single-token repetition loop.
- Track a per-session fact_force_denials counter in GateGuard state
(merged max across concurrent writers, reset with the session, robust
to malformed on-disk values).
- The first GATEGUARD_FACT_FORCE_FULL_DENIALS denials (default 3) keep
the full four-fact block; later denials emit a condensed single-line
message that carries the denial ordinal, so consecutive denials are
structurally different and never textually identical.
- True retries of the same target remain allowed without re-prompting
(unchanged). Destructive-Bash and routine-Bash gates are unchanged,
as are the ECC_GATEGUARD=off / ECC_DISABLED_HOOKS escape hatches.
Eight new tests cover budget counting, condensed format, ordinal
advancement, retry pass-through, env tuning, malformed state, MultiEdit
dampening, and destructive-gate exemption.
* fix(hooks): keep security hooks able to block on oversized stdin (#2222)
Refine the truncation fail-open: instead of skipping the hook entirely,
the runner now suppresses only its own raw-echo when stdin was
truncated. The hook still executes and receives the truncated flag
(run() context / ECC_HOOK_INPUT_TRUNCATED), so config-protection keeps
blocking truncated protected-config payloads (its test requires exit 2)
while pass-through hooks fail open with empty stdout as before.
* style: apply repo formatter to touched hook files
Reduce the default .mcp.json to one connector (chrome-devtools) per the
new policy in docs/MCP-CONNECTOR-POLICY.md: a default earns its slot only
if it is universal AND MCP beats a CLI/API wrapped in a skill. June 2026
audit verdicts: github -> gh via github-ops skill; context7 -> REST via
documentation-lookup; exa -> harness-native search (+ exa-search skill);
memory -> native harness memory + instincts; playwright -> playwright CLI
skills (vendor moved agent flows off MCP); sequential-thinking -> native
extended thinking. All six remain opt-in in mcp-configs/mcp-servers.json.
Tests updated: plugin-manifest policy assertions + install-apply Cursor
expectations.

* fix: surface legacy data warning in instinct-cli status (#2036)
When the data directory moved from ~/.claude/homunculus/ to the
XDG-compliant ~/.local/share/ecc-homunculus/, legacy installs with data
still in the old path saw "No instincts found" with no explanation.
Add _warn_legacy_data() to cmd_status so users get a clear, actionable
warning pointing them to the migration script or the CLV2_HOMUNCULUS_DIR
override. Wrap the directory scan in try/except to handle permission
errors gracefully.
Closes#2036

* fix: address review feedback — drop unused f-strings, resolve absolute migrate path
Remove extraneous f-prefix from strings without interpolation (ruff F541).
Resolve migrate-homunculus.sh path relative to instinct-cli.py instead of
hard-coding a repo-relative path that only works from the repo root.

rules/zh shipped ~17KB of Chinese rule text into the auto-loaded rules tree
of every default install (rules-core installs the bare 'rules' path with
defaultInstall: true), with no paths: frontmatter gating. The content had
also drifted behind both rules/common and the maintained translations in
docs/zh-CN/rules/common (e.g. zh/coding-style.md 48 lines vs the 52-line
docs/zh-CN copy), and 'zh' was already dropped from the installer's language
help in favor of the gated docs-zh-cn locale module (--locale zh-CN).
- move rules/zh/code-review.md to docs/zh-CN/rules/common/code-review.md:
the only file with no counterpart in the maintained locale tree (fills a
zh-CN parity gap with rules/common/code-review.md)
- delete the remaining 10 rules/zh files, all older duplicates of
docs/zh-CN/rules/common content
- update trae-install test to assert the rules tree via rules/web instead
Not addressed here: rules/README.md (~5.5KB of installer docs) still ships
into the auto-loaded tree via the bare 'rules' module path; filtering README
files from rule-tree expansion is a separate decision
- commands-core now ships scripts/harness-audit.js and scripts/skills-health.js:
the module installs the whole commands/ dir, so /harness-audit and
/skill-health were installed without their backing engines on
manifest-driven installs (the original 1.10.0 failure mode)
- agentic-patterns now ships scripts/claw.js: the module installs the
nanoclaw-repl skill, whose workflow operates scripts/claw.js
- package.json files array gains scripts/skills-health.js so the npm publish
surface stays aligned with the module graph (claw.js and harness-audit.js
were already listed)
- orchestration drops commands/multi-workflow.md and commands/sessions.md
from its explicit paths: both are already shipped by commands-core, which
is a declared dependency of the module, so the duplicate ownership produced
two copy operations per destination in install-state. The two scripts/lib
entries are kept because hooks-runtime is NOT a declared dependency and a
standalone orchestration install still needs them
Adds dynamic workflow/team orchestration skills, the content pack, and control-pane work-item/Kanban state DB support. Includes reviewer hardening for state-db CLI validation, optional state DB failure handling, and mergeStateStatus projection.
Salvages the useful harness-audit scoring work from #1989 while preserving the current hook registry and newer plugin install detection. Adds GitHub integration checks, conditional deploy-provider categories, dynamic applicable category metadata, and CODEOWNERS coverage.
Generate the inline hook root resolver with single-quoted JavaScript literals so Windows Git Bash does not choke on nested escaped double quotes before Node starts. Refresh hooks.json and add regression coverage for parsed hook commands and installed hook manifests.
9 new test cases pin down the two previous commits' denylist
extensions. Each verifies both detection (validator exit non-zero +
the expected `dangerous-invisible U+<HEX>` line on stderr) and,
where applicable, `--write` sanitization.
Coverage:
Tag block (commit 1):
- U+E0041 TAG LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A — the range's printable ASCII
shadow; this is the byte sequence demonstrated in published ASCII
smuggling proofs of concept.
- U+E007F CANCEL TAG — the range end.
Other invisibles (commit 2):
- U+180E MONGOLIAN VOWEL SEPARATOR
- U+115F HANGUL CHOSEONG FILLER
- U+1160 HANGUL JUNGSEONG FILLER
- U+2061 FUNCTION APPLICATION (range start)
- U+2064 INVISIBLE PLUS (range end)
- U+3164 HANGUL FILLER
Detection table is data-driven (one loop, one assertion per row) so
adding the next invisible to the denylist also gets a paired
regression test by simply appending to NEWLY_COVERED_RANGES.
Plus a `--write` integration test:
- writes a markdown file containing both Tag block (5 chars) and
U+180E, runs `--write`, asserts both removed and surrounding text
preserved character-for-character ('# Title\n\nBenigntext.\n').
- re-runs the validator without `--write` and asserts exit 0,
confirming the sanitizer's output is idempotent under the
extended denylist.
Test count: 5 → 14 in this file; full `yarn test` green; `yarn lint`
clean.
