release: bump action to 0.1.9

* fix: prevent cross-PR push from subagent-induced branch switch

A workflow_dispatch run for zed-industries/cloud (workflow run 26036155393)
force-pushed the orchestrator's work onto an unrelated engineer's PR branch
(origin/reactivate-pro-plan, PR #2582). The orchestrator's reviewfrog subagent
called checkout_pr({pull_number: 2582}), which (1) moved the shared working
tree to pr-2582 and (2) persisted pushDest pointing at reactivate-pro-plan.
The orchestrator's subsequent commit + push_branch then clobbered the victim
PR. Recovery + disclosure in PR #2584.

Three compounding bugs closed here:

1. checkout_pr dirty-tree guard had a first-call hole: the previous condition
   required ctx.toolState.issueNumber to already be set, so on workflow_dispatch
   runs the first checkout_pr (commonly from a subagent) bypassed the guard
   entirely. Now any PR switch with a dirty tree is refused, including the
   first switch of a run. Idempotent same-PR re-checkouts are still absorbed
   by alreadyOnBranch inside checkoutPrBranch.

2. push_branch trusted sticky pushDest blindly. Added a backstop: refuse
   pushes where the local branch matches /^pr-(\d+)$/ AND pushDest.remoteBranch
   differs from it AND the current run is not scoped to PR N (event.is_pr === true
   && event.issue_number === N). This catches subagent-induced silent branch
   switches even if a future bug reintroduces a first-call hole in fix #1.

3. Build-mode self-review prompt told the orchestrator to ship "the output of
   git diff" to the reviewer. The model in this run synthesized
   git diff main...HEAD, which excludes uncommitted work — and Build self-review
   runs BEFORE the commit, so the reviewer saw an empty diff and thrashed,
   eventually calling checkout_pr on a random PR to find something to look at.
   Prompt now specifies git diff origin/<base-branch> (two-dot, no HEAD),
   which compares the working tree against the remote base.

* review: key dirty-tree guard on current branch + drop 'two-dot' misnomer

Address review feedback on PR #796.

1. checkout_pr dirty-tree guard now keys off the live current branch
   (git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD), not ctx.toolState.issueNumber.
   issueNumber is ALSO set by get_issue / get_issue_comments /
   get_issue_events, so a subagent doing get_issue(N) followed by
   checkout_pr(N) on a dirty tree would have bypassed the original guard
   (issueNumber === pull_number). The current branch is the actual
   primitive for "would this call move HEAD" — querying it directly avoids
   correlating on toolState that other tools write to.

2. modes.ts: drop the wrong "two-dot" label on git diff origin/<base>.
   That's the single-rev form, not two-dot. Copilot was right that the
   label was confusing/contradictory with the actually-shown command.

+ * `homeEnv`), so opencode's auto-discovery scans the tmpdir, never the user's
+ * working tree. opencode's `Global.Path.config` resolves to
+ * `path.join(xdgConfig, "opencode")` and the config layer auto-discovers
+ * plugins from every directory in its scan list — including
+ * `Global.Path.config` — by globbing `{plugin,plugins}/*.{ts,js}` via

+ * XDG_CONFIG_HOME is so harness-side files (config, plugins, scratch state)
+ * land in the tmpdir.
+ *
+ * Why this plugin exists: opencode's `task` tool runs subagents in-process and
+ * the CLI's `cli/cmd/run.ts` event loop filters `part.sessionID !== sessionID`,
+ * so subagent-internal `message.part.updated` events are silently discarded

+ * EVERY bus event via `bus.subscribeAll()` regardless of session.
+ *
+ * The plugin re-emits every relevant bus event onto opencode's stdout as a
+ * single JSON line wrapped in a sentinel envelope. our `runOpenCode` parser
+ * recognises the envelope, unpacks it, and routes the inner part through the
+ * existing handlers with a per-session label from `SessionLabeler` so each
+ * subagent's tool calls / text appear inline alongside the orchestrator's.
+ *
+ * Dumb plugin / smart parent split: the plugin emits every part for every
+ * session. the parent dedupes against the orchestrator's own session id (which
+ * it already knows from the `init` event). this keeps the plugin trivial and
+ * keeps the per-session attribution logic on the parent side where the
+ * SessionLabeler already lives.
+ *

+  --doctor     print version info for tools inside the container (node,

+// GitHub Actions `post:` entry point. Runs after the main step regardless of
+// exit status (cancellation, timeout, unhandled error) — that's the contract
+// we need for credential persistence: if OpenCode refreshed the Codex
+// auth.json during the run, the refreshed token must land back in Pullfrog
+// even when the main step died unexpectedly.
+//
+// THIS IS WHY `CODEX_AUTH_JSON` HAS TO LIVE IN PULLFROG'S OWN SECRET STORE,
+// NOT IN GITHUB ACTIONS SECRETS. The refresh chain rotates on every use; this
+// hook PUTs the rotated chain back to Pullfrog Postgres so the next run starts
+// from a fresh token. GH Actions secrets are read-only at runtime — there is
+// no API to write them back from inside a job — so a token stashed there
+// silently goes stale on the first refresh and the next run fails. See
+// wiki/codex-auth.md.
+//
+// Today's only job: detect a Codex auth refresh by diffing the on-disk
+// auth.json against the original refresh token (saved to GH Actions state
+// by action/agents/opencode_v2.ts — see also the legacy v1 file kept as
+// reference at action/agents/opencode.ts), convert OpenCode's auth shape
+// back to Codex CLI shape, and PUT it to /api/runtime/secret.
+//
+// Silent no-op when the main step didn't materialize Codex auth (no state
+// saved). Best-effort: failures are logged but never throw — the workflow
+// is already done, and a missed refresh write-back means the user re-runs
+// `pullfrog auth codex` next time the chain breaks.

+//   - "parameters.<field>.enum: only allowed for STRING type"

+//   - "anyOf must be the only field in a schema node"

+// transforms applied here:
+//   1. add `type: "string"` to enum-only schemas. arktype emits string literal
+//      unions as `{enum: ["a","b"]}` without a `type` field — gemini requires
+//      the type declaration for any non-object schema.
+//   2. collapse `{anyOf: [{enum:["a"]}, {enum:["b"]}]}` (older arktype form)
+//      into `{type:"string", enum:[...]}`. also handles `{const:"a"}` branches.
+//   3. when `anyOf` / `oneOf` can't be collapsed, strip sibling fields (`type`,
+//      `description`, `items`, etc.) — gemini rejects `anyOf` alongside any
+//      peer keywords. see opencode #14659.
+//   4. drop `$schema` metadata and rename `$defs` → `definitions` (draft-07

-    }
+- let the snapshot inform triage and dispatch. when it already tracks a risk, your lens prompts to subagents are stronger when they reference that context (e.g. "the JSDoc explicitly scopes to code points — do not flag grapheme-cluster issues" if the snapshot already documents that contract). when something the snapshot tracks is now resolved by new commits, note that. when new commits introduce something the snapshot doesn't yet describe, that's exactly where your fan-out should focus.
-    const errMsg = "error" in data ? data.error : "(no error body)";

-    log.warning(`fetchExistingSummaryComment: ${response.status} ${path} — ${errMsg}`);
+- structure however serves THIS PR. there is no required section template. a refactor might organize by renamed export and call-site impact; a feature by capability; a billing change by money path. a compact note of which commit ranges have been reviewed should always be present so future runs scope correctly, but the rest is your call. when the structure works across runs, keep it stable so range-diffs are clean; when the PR's character changes (e.g. scope expands), reshape.

+1. **Reviewed changes preamble** — one bolded inline lead-in describing what was reviewed in this run, a bullet list of the substantive changes, and an HTML comment carrying review metadata for downstream agents.
-NOTE: use HTML bold <b>TL;DR</b>, NOT markdown bold **TL;DR**.
+2. **Cross-cutting issue sections** (zero or more) — one \`### \` heading per concern, with a human-readable problem write-up and a collapsed \`<details>Technical details</details>\` block underneath.
+3. **\`### ℹ️ Nitpicks\`** at the very bottom (only if there are nits worth surfacing in the body) — a flat bullet list, no technical-details block.
 
-### Key changes
+Inline-vs-body split: concerns that anchor to a specific line go inline (use the \`comments\` parameter). Body \`### \` sections are reserved for concerns that **have no line to anchor to** — typically because the concern is about *absence* (something the diff should have done but didn't), *sequencing* (rollout / deletion / migration order), *design decisions only the human can make*, or *scope questions the diff implicitly raises but doesn't address*. A concern that anchors to a line but has broad implications still goes inline (use the technical-details block there to capture the implications — see Inline technical details below). If you found no non-anchorable concerns, the body has zero \`### \` issue sections — just the preamble + metadata.
 
-- **Short human-readable title** — 1 sentence per change. Write a short prose phrase (title case or sentence case); when you name a file, type, or function, put that name in backticks (e.g. **Add \`TodoTracker\` for live checklists**). A reviewer should understand the full PR from this list alone.

-CRITICAL — GitHub markdown rendering rule:
+{Human-readable problem write-up. Describes the PROBLEM only — what's broken, what the symptom is, what the blast radius is. NO asks, NO suggested fixes, NO "the right thing to do is...". Asks and fixes live in the technical-details block below; the visible part is for the human to *understand* the problem, not to implement it.}
-GitHub's markdown parser requires a blank line between ALL block-level elements. This includes transitions between: HTML tags (<br/>, <sub>, <details>, <b>, etc.) and markdown syntax (headings, lists, blockquotes, paragraphs). Without a blank line, GitHub treats the following content as a continuation of the HTML block and renders markdown syntax as literal text. ALWAYS separate block-level elements with a blank line.
 
-Rules:
+<details><summary>Technical details</summary>
-- \`##\` titles and key-change bullet lead-ins are plain-language summaries; backtick only actual code tokens (files, types, functions) where they appear in the title
-- ALL variable names, identifiers, and file names in body text must be in backticks
-- ALL file references MUST link to the PR Files Changed view. Compute anchors by running \`echo -n 'path/to/file.ts' | sha256sum\` via shell for each file. NEVER fabricate hex strings — run the actual command. If shell is unavailable, omit the #diff- anchor rather than guessing.
-- Add <br/> before each ## heading for visual spacing. Do NOT use horizontal rules (---)
-- Do NOT include raw diff stats like '+123 / -45' or line counts
-- Do NOT include code blocks or repeat diff contents
-- Do NOT include a changelog section — the key changes list serves this purpose
-- Focus on *intent*, not *what* — the diff already shows what changed

+
+\`\`\`
+### ℹ️ Legacy \`opencode.ts\` has no documented deletion plan
+
+The v2 harness lands alongside the v1 file and imports one helper from it. Worth a follow-up issue or a TODO so the next maintainer doesn't have to re-derive the cleanup plan.
+\`\`\`
+
+The example's value is its *shape*: a finding about absence (no deletion plan), not a line-anchored bug. Body sections live or die on whether the concern genuinely doesn't fit on a line.
+
+**Heading severity emoji** — every \`### \` heading carries one:
+
+- 🚨 critical — blocks merge (data loss, security, broken core flow)
+- ⚠️ important — must address before merging (regression, missing validation, incorrect behavior)
+- ℹ️ informational — surfaced for awareness; mergeable as-is
+
+**Visible problem write-up rules:**
+
+- **No asks, no suggested fixes** in the visible part. The visible portion describes the problem; the technical-details block describes the fix shape and any open questions. The exception: a fix so self-evident that NOT stating it would be weird (e.g. "the typo is missing an 'r'") — in that case, fold it into the problem statement and skip the suggested-approach block in technical details too.
+- **Never two successive plain paragraphs.** Every transition between block-level elements must alternate prose with structure: paragraph → bullet list → paragraph; paragraph → code fence → bullet list; paragraph → table → paragraph. Two consecutive paragraphs in a row create a wall of text that's impossible to digest. If you catch yourself writing one, find a way to split it: pull a list out of it, drop a 2-3 line code fence between them, or merge them into a single tighter paragraph.
+- **Per-paragraph budget:** ~3 sentences max. Past that, you're explaining where you should be structuring.
+- **Identifier discipline still applies** in the visible part. Lead with behavior in plain English; name an identifier only when it's the subject of the concern or a public surface a reader would recognize. The technical-details block is where dense identifier references belong.
+
+**Technical-details block rules:**
+
+- Wrapped in a 4-backtick markdown fence (\`\\\`\\\`\\\`\\\`markdown ... \\\`\\\`\\\`\\\`\`) so it's visually distinct, one-click copyable, and can contain its own 3-backtick code fences without escape gymnastics. The contents are agent-readable — a fix-agent will pull the body down and use this block as the brief.
+- File paths and \`file:line\` refs are encouraged (and necessary) — the next agent uses these to navigate. Identifier density is fine here.
+- Slightly more verbose than the absolute minimum is OK when it materially helps the next agent: a small code snippet showing the symptom, a short table of mismatched key/column pairs, a one-paragraph "why CI doesn't catch it" note. Skip massive regression-test scaffolding or full route rewrites — the implementing agent writes those.
+- Use the four standard sections (\`Affected sites\`, \`Required outcome\`, optional \`Suggested approach\`, optional \`Open questions for the human\`). Skip the optional sections when they wouldn't add anything.
+
+## Inline technical details
+
+Inline comments are short (~2-3 sentences) by default. When an inline finding has broader implications worth recording for a fix-agent — e.g. a localized bug whose proper fix requires touching several files, or where the right fix depends on a design decision the human needs to make — append a collapsed \`<details><summary>Technical details</summary>\` block to the inline comment's body. Same shape as the body-section technical-details block (4-backtick fenced markdown, \`## Affected sites\` / \`## Required outcome\` / optional \`## Suggested approach\` / optional \`## Open questions for the human\`).
+
+GitHub renders the same markdown parser in inline comments as in the review body, so the collapsed-details affordance works the same way. The visible part of the inline comment stays scannable; the depth is one click away for any agent that needs it.
+
+## 3. \`### ℹ️ Nitpicks\` (optional, last section)
+
+Only when there are nits that for some reason can't be inlined. Filepaths in nit text are fine — these are simple enough that a human or agent reads once and acts. No technical-details block.
+
+\`\`\`
+### ℹ️ Nitpicks
+
+- {nit, with file path inline if useful, ≤ ~200 chars}
+- ...
+\`\`\`
+
+## Inline comment shape
+
+Inline comments use the same severity framing as body \`### \` sections, scaled down for line-anchored use:
+
+- **Lead with a 1-2 sentence problem statement.** The reader is looking at the line in question, so don't restate what the line says — describe what's wrong with it. Optionally prefix the visible line with a severity emoji (🚨 / ⚠️ / ℹ️) when severity isn't obvious from context.
+- **Optional \`<details><summary>Technical details</summary>...</details>\` collapsible** for findings whose technical context (longer file:line references, related-code snippets, suggested approach, regression-risk notes) would overwhelm the human-readable lead-in. Same agent-readable purpose, same 4-backtick fence shape, and same 4-section structure as the body's technical-details block — see *Inline technical details* above. Encouraged whenever the depth helps a downstream fix-agent; don't force one when the inline lead-in already says everything.
+- **Visible portion ≤ 2-3 sentences.** If you find yourself writing more, that's the cue to split the depth into the \`Technical details\` collapsible.
+
+## Body-wide rules
+
+- **Inline-vs-body discipline (repeated for emphasis):** anything that anchors to a specific line goes inline (with a \`<details>Technical details</details>\` block when the implications are broad). The body is for non-anchorable concerns only — absence, sequencing, design decisions, scope questions, architectural risk.
+- **No \`### Issues found\` heading** above the issue sections — each \`### \` heading IS the issue.
+- **Severity emoji on every \`### \` heading** (🚨 / ⚠️ / ℹ️). No emoji on the preamble lead-in or anywhere else.
+- **GitHub block-level rendering**: GitHub's markdown parser requires a blank line between ALL block-level elements (HTML tags like \`<br/>\`, \`<sub>\`, \`<details>\`, \`<b>\` and markdown syntax like headings, lists, blockquotes, code fences, paragraphs). Without a blank line, GitHub treats following content as a continuation of the HTML block and renders markdown syntax as literal text. ALWAYS separate block-level elements with a blank line.
+- **Backtick-wrap** every variable, identifier, or file name when you mention one (in either visible or technical-details portions).
+- **Don't repeat diff content**, don't include raw \`+123 / -45\` stats, don't include a changelog section, don't use horizontal rules (\`---\`).
+- **Pull file/commit counts from \`checkout_pr\` metadata** — never count manually.
+- **Legacy headings REMOVED.** Do not use \`### Key changes\`, \`### Issues found\`, \`<b>TL;DR</b>\`, or \`<sub><b>Summary</b>\`. The new structure subsumes them.`;

+   - lockfile or generated-code regeneration, mechanical rename whose only effect is import-path updates (size of diff is irrelevant — read the *shape*, not the line count)
+   - low-risk dep patch bump from a trusted source
+
+   Run self-review when the diff has **any behavioral surface, however small**:
+   - 1-line changes to SQL operators / comparison logic / regexes / redirects / HTTP methods / response codes
+   - any change to money / tax / currency / billing / fee / refund / payout calculations or constants
+   - any change to auth / permissions / roles / sessions / tokens / signature verification
+   - any change to feature-flag defaults, retry counts, timeouts, rate limits, batch sizes
+   - new endpoints, new code paths, new error branches — even small ones
+   - mixed diffs (whitespace + a single semantic line) — the semantic line still triggers self-review
+   - anything you're uncertain about
+
+   Tie-breaker: when in doubt, run self-review. One false-positive subagent dispatch costs cents; one false-negative shipped bug costs much more. There's no value in dispatching for a typo, but there's also no excuse for skipping on a 1-line change to a billing path.
+
+   Otherwise delegate the \`${REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME}\` subagent to review your diff with fresh eyes against YOUR TASK. The subagent's baked-in system prompt enforces a non-mutative + non-recursive contract: read-only file/search/web tools and read-only MCP queries only; no writes, shell side effects, state-changing MCP calls, or nested subagent dispatch. Enforcement is prose-only — restate the constraint in your dispatch instructions and do not relax it.
+
+   Provide the subagent with YOUR TASK, the output of \`git diff origin/<base-branch>\` (single-rev form, no \`HEAD\` — this compares the working tree against the remote base and captures committed + staged + unstaged work; \`main...HEAD\` and \`--cached\` both miss the uncommitted edits Build self-review runs on, since self-review happens BEFORE the commit), and a tight summary (not raw output) of any lint/typecheck/test failures you fixed during build — what broke, root cause, the fix — so it can check that fixes addressed root causes rather than suppressed symptoms; say "no build-phase failures" if the build path was clean. Instruct it to flag bugs, logic errors, missing edge cases, gaps between request and diff, and unintended changes.
+
+   Delegation + research discipline (distilled from \`/anneal\` canonical — these are codified learnings from many review rounds, not theoretical best practices):
+   - Do NOT summarize what you implemented — that biases the subagent toward validating the shape of your solution rather than questioning it.
+   - Do NOT curate a reading list of files. Let the subagent discover scope from the diff and codebase.
+   - Do NOT pre-shape output with a severity / category schema. That leaks your hypotheses; severity is your call during evaluation.
+   - Do NOT defect-hunt the diff yourself in parallel with the subagent. Your role is dispatch + evaluation; doing the review yourself reintroduces the implementation bias the subagent is meant to mitigate.
+   - For diffs that rely on third-party API contracts, SDK semantics, framework directives, or DB engine specifics, instruct the subagent to verify load-bearing claims via web search and quote source URLs rather than trust training data — this is the single most common review-quality failure mode.
+
+   Be **discerning** about what comes back. The reviewer is an AI subagent and is fallible — treat every finding as a hypothesis, not a directive, and **verify each one yourself** against the diff and the code before deciding whether to apply. You are searching for a solution that is **complete, minimal, and elegant** — you may need to think hard to find it. Do not over-engineer, do not be over-defensive, **do not write AI slop**. Reviewers bias toward *recommending additions*, and that bias has a recognizable slop texture: defensive checks for cases that cannot happen, extra logging, new abstractions used once, comments restating code, tests asserting tautologies, "just-in-case" guards, error handlers for cases the type system already rules out. Reject those. For each surviving finding, ask: would applying it leave the code more sound, correct, AND elegant? Two-out-of-three means look harder for a fix that gets all three before settling. After applying the fixes you accept, re-read your diff and be discerning about what *you just changed*: if any fix turned out to be bloat in context, revert it. Then verify only intended changes are present, no debug artifacts or commented-out code remain, no unrelated files were modified. Commit locally via shell (\`git add . && git commit -m "..."\`).

-1. Checkout the PR via \`${t("checkout_pr")}\` — this returns PR metadata and a \`diffPath\`. Read the diff to identify the major areas of change.
+1. **task list**: create your task list for this run as your first action.
 
-2. For each area of change:
+2. **checkout**: call \`${t("checkout_pr")}\` — this returns PR metadata and a \`diffPath\`. read the diff TOC end-to-end and treat its file line ranges as your coverage checklist.
-   - read the diff and trace data flow, check boundaries, and verify assumptions
-   - plan your investigation: identify the highest-risk areas (tricky state transitions, boundary crossings, assumption chains) and prioritize depth over breadth
-   - use \`${t("get_pull_request")}\` and other read-only GitHub tools for additional context
-   - if the PR removes features, deletes exports, renames identifiers, or changes architectural patterns, run a dedicated impact analysis: list what changed, then use grep across code, tests, docs (\`docs/\`, \`wiki/\`), comments, configs, and UI to find stale references
-   - report impact-analysis findings in the summary body, ordered by severity (runtime breakage > incorrect docs > stale comments)
-   - draft inline comments with NEW line numbers from the diff — every comment must be actionable (2-3 sentences max)
-   - use GitHub permalink format for code references
-   - for large or cross-cutting PRs that touch disparate subsystems, consider delegating read-only subagents to investigate areas in parallel. subagents must ONLY read files, grep, and search — no MCP tools, no writes, no shell commands, no side effects. collect their findings and use them to draft comments.
 
-3. Self-critique: review all drafted comments and drop any that are praise, style preferences, speculative/unverified claims, about pre-existing code unrelated to the PR, or not actionable.
+3. **triage**: orient yourself on the PR — identify *what kind of thing this is* (domain it touches, seams it crosses, external contracts it depends on, user-facing surfaces it changes). pull as much context as you need to render a confident, well-grounded review: read related files, grep for callers of changed symbols, check tests that exercise the touched paths, fetch related GitHub state. **you are the synthesizer** — never delegate understanding to subagents.
 
-4. Submit — ALWAYS submit exactly one review via \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\`.
+   if the PR is **genuinely trivial**, skip the fan-out entirely and submit a \`No new issues found.\` review per step 7.
-   Do NOT call \`report_progress\` — the review is the final record and the progress

-     \`approved: false\`. Body begins with a GitHub alert blockquote, e.g.:
+   - single-word doc typo, whitespace/format-only, comment-only across any number of files

-     \`approved: false\`. Body begins with a GitHub alert blockquote, e.g.:

-     \`> [!IMPORTANT]\\n> Consider adding input validation for ...\`
+   "Looks trivial but isn't" (do **NOT** skip — small diff, big blast radius):
-     Follow with a brief summary if needed. Include all inline comments.
+   - any 1-line change to SQL / regex / auth / billing / permission / signature-verification code
+   - flipping a feature-flag default, default config value, or retry/timeout constant
+   - changing a money/tax/currency/fee constant by any amount
+   - changing an HTTP method, redirect URL, response code, or status enum
+   - tightening or loosening a comparison operator (\`<\` ↔ \`<=\`, \`==\` ↔ \`!=\`)
+   - renaming a public API surface (still trivial in shape, but needs an impact lens)
+   - adding a new direct dependency (supply-chain surface)
+   - any "typo fix" in user-facing copy that changes meaning ("approved" → "denied")
+   - mixed diffs where a semantic 1-liner is buried in whitespace/formatting changes
+
+4. **lens decision — 0 or 2+, NEVER 1**.
+
+   The default is **0 lenses**: handle the review yourself end-to-end. Most PRs land here.
+
+   Dispatch **2+ \`${REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME}\` lenses in parallel** ONLY when ALL of the following are true:
+   - the PR is substantive (>5 files changed AND >200 net lines), OR touches a high-stakes subsystem (auth, billing, payments, schema migration, webhooks, secrets, RBAC, multi-tenant isolation, cron/scheduling)
+   - you can name 2+ distinct concrete failure modes that warrant independent lenses (one lens per failure mode; orthogonal, not overlapping)
+   - parallel-orchestrated independent perspectives meaningfully outperform what you'd find solo
+
+   **NEVER dispatch exactly one lens.** A single lens is just a more expensive version of doing the work yourself with a worse model — it adds wall time and a context-handoff for no orthogonality benefit. Either you have at least two genuinely independent failure-mode hypotheses (dispatch all in one turn), or you don't (do the review yourself).
+
+   When you do go multi-lens, lens framings come in two flavors:
+   - **themed lenses** — a perspective applied across the whole diff (correctness, security, user-journey, performance, etc.).
+   - **subsystem lenses** — a domain-scoped frame for high-stakes subsystems the PR touches (e.g. "the auth lens", "the billing lens", "the schema-migration lens"). **for high-stakes domains, lead with the subsystem lens rather than the generic themed equivalent** — "billing-subsystem" outperforms "correctness on billing code" because the framing primes the subagent to remember domain-specific failure modes (double-charges, refund races, currency rounding, dispute flows) the generic lens misses.
+
+   starter menu (combine, omit, or invent your own):
+   - **correctness & invariants** — bugs, races, error handling, edge cases, state-machine boundaries
+   - **impact** — stale references in code/tests/docs/configs/UI after rename/remove
+   - **research-validated assumptions** — third-party API contracts, SDK semantics, framework directives, version-gated behavior. **only pick when the PR's correctness depends on the contract behaving a specific way** — not when the API is merely used. The bar is "if the third-party contract differs from what the diff assumes, the PR is incorrect." When dispatched, the subagent must verify load-bearing claims via web search and quote source URLs.
+   - **security** — new endpoints, authZ, input validation, secrets handling, replay/CSRF/injection, cross-tenant isolation
+   - **user-journey** — UX-touching flows: walk through happy path and failure modes as a user
+   - **operational readiness** — observability, alerting, migrations (forward + rollback), feature flags, on-call burden
+   - **integration & cross-cutting** — API contracts between modules, backward-compat of public surfaces, multi-service ordering
+   - **test integrity** — meaningful coverage for the changed behavior; deterministic; no shared-state pollution
+   - **performance** — N+1 queries, hot-path allocation, latency budgets, index coverage
+   - **holistic** — does the PR make sense as a whole? symmetric flows (delete for every create, rollback for every migration)?
+   - **subsystem lenses** (invent as the PR demands) — auth, billing, payments, schema migration, webhooks, secrets, RBAC, multi-tenant isolation, cron/scheduling, etc.
+
+   The only subagent type is \`${REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME}\` — used for lens judgment work ("is this safe / correct / well-tested?"), runs on a mid-tier model.
+
+5. **fan out (only if step 4 said 2+ lenses)**: dispatch every \`${REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME}\` subagent for this run **IN A SINGLE ASSISTANT TURN, AS MULTIPLE PARALLEL TASK TOOL_USE BLOCKS IN ONE MESSAGE.**
+
+   ⚠️  CRITICAL — PARALLELISM IS THE ONLY REASON LENSES EXIST. ⚠️
+   The default tool-call behavior of Claude Code (and most agent runtimes) is **serial dispatch**: emit one Task call, await result, emit next, await, etc. This collapses your fan-out into a sequential review where each lens adds N × (orchestrator-think-time + lens-execution-time) to wall time. **YOU MUST OVERRIDE THIS DEFAULT.** Emit ALL of your Task tool_use blocks in the SAME assistant message, BEFORE you read ANY result from ANY of them. If you find yourself emitting one Task call, then thinking about the result, then emitting another — STOP and re-issue them all together. The whole point of going multi-lens is the wall-clock speedup from parallel execution; serial dispatch defeats it entirely.
+
+   ✅ Right pattern: one assistant turn with N Task tool_use blocks → wait → N results arrive together → aggregate.
+   ❌ Wrong pattern: turn 1 = Task(lens A) → turn 2 (after A's result) = Task(lens B) → turn 3 (after B's result) = Task(lens C). This is the failure mode. Do not do this.
+
+   You can also include your own \`read\` / \`grep\` / \`webfetch\` calls in the SAME turn as the parallel \`${REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME}\` dispatches — concurrent context-pulling on the orchestrator side runs in parallel with the lens fan-out and costs zero extra wall time.
+
+   if a subagent errors out, times out, or returns nothing usable, retry once with the same lens; if it still fails, proceed with partial coverage and note the missing lens in the review body — do not skip the fan-out entirely on a single subagent failure. each subagent gets:
+   - the diff path / target — reading the diff and the codebase is its job
+   - **only one lens** — never a multi-section "review for X, Y, and Z" prompt
+   - **a Task \`description\` set to the lens name** (e.g. \`"security"\`, \`"correctness"\`, \`"billing-subsystem"\`) — the harness reads this field to label the subagent's log lines so parallel runs can be told apart in CI output. without it, every subagent shows up as \`subagent#N\`.
+   - if the lens touches external contracts, instruct the subagent to verify load-bearing claims via web search rather than trust training data, and to quote source URLs in its reasoning. action runs are non-interactive — there's no human in the loop to catch "I'm pretty sure Stripe does X."
+   - ask the subagent to report findings with file paths and NEW line numbers from the diff so you can anchor inline comments without re-reading the entire diff.
+
+   delegation discipline:
+   - do NOT summarize the PR for them (biases toward a validation frame)
+   - do NOT hand them a curated reading list (let them discover scope)
+   - do NOT pre-shape their output with a finding schema
+   - do NOT mention the other lenses (independence is the point — overlapping findings are a strong signal)
+
+6. **aggregate & draft**: when the fan-out lands, merge findings; de-dup overlaps (two lenses catching the same issue = higher-confidence signal); trace each finding yourself before accepting it. drop praise, style preferences, speculative/unverified claims, findings about pre-existing code unrelated to the PR (heuristic: if the finding's root cause lives in lines this PR added or modified, it's in scope; otherwise drop unless the PR plausibly introduced or amplified the regression), and anything not actionable. also drop **bloat-shaped findings** — proposed fixes that would add defensive checks for cases that can't happen, abstractions used once, comments restating obvious code, tests asserting tautologies, or "just-in-case" guards. subagents are fallible and bias toward recommending changes; the bar for an actionable inline comment is sound + correct + elegant. recommending a change that improves only one of the three (or worse, degrades elegance to nominally improve correctness) makes the codebase worse, not better.
+
+   **Hunt for non-anchored concerns before drafting.** After collecting your anchored findings, deliberately scan for concerns that have no specific line to point at — typically: deletion / cleanup plans for code the diff replaces or shadows; rollout sequencing (what happens to in-flight state during deploy / revert?); coverage gaps the diff implies but doesn't add; scope questions that only the human can answer (e.g. is the legacy path going away or is this a long-term dual track?); architectural risks the diff opens up that aren't a single-line bug. On substantial PRs (migrations, refactors, multi-file rewrites, version bumps that change runtime semantics), at least one such concern almost always exists; if you can't think of any, your bar is probably too high.
+
+   for surviving findings, draft inline comments with NEW line numbers from the diff — attach a \`<details>Technical details</details>\` block to any inline comment whose fix is non-trivial or has cross-file implications (see Inline technical details in the format below). every comment must be actionable, 2-3 sentences max in the visible part. use GitHub permalink format for code references. for impact-analysis findings (stale references after rename/remove), report them in the review body ordered by severity (runtime breakage > incorrect docs > stale comments) rather than as inline comments unless they're anchored to a specific line.
+
+7. **submit**: ALWAYS submit exactly one review via \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\`. Do NOT call \`report_progress\` — the review is the final record and the progress comment will be cleaned up automatically.
+
+   note: the first create_pull_request_review submission may error with a one-time diff-coverage nudge listing unread TOC regions. retry the same call to proceed — optionally after reading the listed ranges. the pre-flight will not block again this session.
+
+   The review body is structured as: \`[optional alert blockquote]\` → \`[PR summary using the default format below]\`. Inline comments are passed via the \`comments\` parameter, not in the body.
+
+   The opening callout is what the author sees first — pick the one that matches what you want them to do. Five tiers, from loudest to friendliest:
+
+   - \`[!CAUTION]\` — large red banner. Reads as "this will break something."
+   - \`[!IMPORTANT]\` — large purple banner. Reads as "you need to look at this before merging."
+   - \`> ℹ️ ...\` — informational blockquote. Reads as "minor suggestions, nothing blocking."
+   - \`> ✅ ...\` — green friendly blockquote. Reads as "no concerns, mergeable."
+
+   Two reinforcing levers: callout intensity (above) and \`approved\` (which gates the footer Fix-button affordance — Fix renders on every non-approving review, so \`approved: true\` suppresses it). Wrapping mergeable feedback in \`[!IMPORTANT]\` trains users to click Fix on reviews that don't need fixing. Pick the tier the author's actual next action justifies.
+
+   - **critical issues** (blocks merge — bugs, security, data loss, broken core flows):
+     \`approved: false\`. Body opens with \`> [!CAUTION]\\n> This PR introduces ...\`, followed by the PR summary. Include all inline comments via \`comments\`.
+   - **must-address non-critical findings** (real consequences if shipped — incorrect behavior in non-critical paths, missing validation on user input, regressions the author should fix before merge):
+     \`approved: false\`. Body opens with \`> [!IMPORTANT]\\n> ...\`, followed by the PR summary. Reserve this tier for findings with concrete fallout — do NOT use \`[!IMPORTANT]\` for nits, style preferences, or "consider also" suggestions. Include all inline comments via \`comments\`.
+   - **minor suggestions only** (single-line nits, doc/comment polish, defer-able observations, "rough edges"):
+     \`approved: false\`. Body opens with \`> ℹ️ No critical issues — minor suggestions inline.\\n\\n\` followed by the PR summary. Include all inline comments via \`comments\`. Vary the wording after the emoji to fit the review (e.g. "Minor suggestions only.", "Two rough edges worth a look."), but always keep the ℹ️ prefix and keep it short.
+   - **informational observations** (mergeable as-is, nothing actionable — e.g. prior feedback addressed cleanly, surfacing a minor stale doc reference, calling out something noteworthy without recommending a change):
+     \`approved: true\`. Body opens with \`> ✅ No new issues found.\\n\\n\` followed by the PR summary. Do NOT include inline \`comments\` — the ✅ signals "no action needed", which contradicts an actionable anchor; if a point is concrete enough to anchor to a line, downgrade the whole review to "minor suggestions only" (\`approved: false\`) instead.
    - **no actionable issues**:
-     \`approved: true\`, body: "Reviewed — no issues found."`,
+     \`approved: true\`. Body opens with \`> ✅ No new issues found.\\n\\n\` followed by the PR summary.

         "Re-review a PR after new commits are pushed; focus on new changes since the last review",
       prompt: `### Checklist
 
-1. Checkout the PR via \`${t("checkout_pr")}\` — this returns PR metadata, \`diffPath\` (full diff), and \`incrementalDiffPath\` (changes since last reviewed version, if available).
+1. **task list**: create your task list for this run as your first action.
 
-2. If \`incrementalDiffPath\` is present, read it to see what changed since the last review. This is a range-diff that isolates the net changes, filtering out base branch noise. If not present, fall back to reviewing the full PR diff.
+2. **checkout**: call \`${t("checkout_pr")}\` — this returns PR metadata, \`diffPath\` (full diff), and \`incrementalDiffPath\` (changes since last reviewed version, if available). read the diff TOC first and use its line ranges as your coverage checklist.
 
-3. Fetch previous reviews via \`${t("list_pull_request_reviews")}\`. For the most recent Pullfrog review, call \`${t("get_review_comments")}\` with the review ID to retrieve specific prior line-level feedback.
+3. **incremental scope**: if \`incrementalDiffPath\` is present, read it to see what changed since the last review. this is a range-diff that isolates the net changes, filtering out base branch noise. if not present, fall back to reviewing the full PR diff and determine what changed since Pullfrog's most recent review.
 
-4. For each area of the new changes:
+4. **prior feedback — read AND retire it**: fetch previous reviews via \`${t("list_pull_request_reviews")}\`, then call \`${t("get_review_comments")}\` on each prior Pullfrog review. Each thread renders as a section whose first line is a fenced tag \`comment author=<login> id=<fullDatabaseId> review=<reviewId> thread=<graphqlId>\`; section headers carry \`[RESOLVED]\` / \`[OUTDATED]\` when relevant. For every **open, Pullfrog-originated** thread, decide and act:
-   - review the incremental diff while using the full diff for context
-   - check whether prior review feedback was addressed by the new commits
-   - trace data flow, check boundaries, verify assumptions, consider lifecycle, spot performance issues
-   - if the new commits remove, rename, or deprecate anything, run impact analysis with grep across code/tests/docs/comments/configs to find stale references and include those findings in the summary body
-   - never repeat prior feedback. only comment on genuinely new issues introduced by the new commits.
-   - draft inline comments with NEW line numbers from the full PR diff — every comment must be actionable (2-3 sentences max)
-   - for large or cross-cutting PRs, consider delegating read-only subagents for parallel investigation. subagents must ONLY read files, grep, and search — no MCP tools, no writes, no shell commands, no side effects. collect their findings and use them to draft comments.
 
-5. Self-critique: drop any comments that are praise, style preferences, speculative, about pre-existing code, or not actionable.
+   - **Pullfrog-originated** means the FIRST \`comment author=...\` tag in the section is \`author=pullfrog[bot]\`. The \`*\` marker on individual comments is unrelated — it flags whether a comment belongs to the queried review, not whether it is the thread root.
+   - **addressed?** read the file at the thread's anchor and judge whether the substantive concern is now resolved by the new commits. Lines being modified isn't enough: reformatting, renaming, or moving the same code elsewhere doesn't address a concern. If the comment raised multiple distinct concerns, ALL must be addressed. The \`[OUTDATED]\` tag means GitHub moved the anchor (line shift, force-push, rename) — it does NOT mean the concern was addressed; re-read the code at its new location before deciding.
+   - **if addressed**: call \`${t("reply_to_review_comment")}\` with the root tag's numeric \`id=\` as \`comment_id\` (NOT the \`thread=\` value — that's a separate GraphQL ID used only by resolve) and a one-line body (e.g. \`Addressed in <short-sha>.\`), then call \`${t("resolve_review_thread")}\` with the root tag's \`thread=\` value as \`thread_id\`. Do this BEFORE drafting the new review so the GitHub thread state aligns with the new review by the time it lands.
+   - **if uncertain or partially addressed**: leave open. False-positive resolutions erode trust faster than false negatives.
+   - **scope**: only retire Pullfrog-originated threads. Threads from human reviewers belong to those humans to resolve, even if the commit happened to address them.
 
-6. **Summarize**: build two distinct sections for the review body:
+   The remaining open threads feed step 8's dedup filter — anything already flagged and unchanged by the new commits should not be re-raised. The rolling PR summary snapshot is the durable record of retire activity; you don't need to surface it in the review body.
-   a. **Reviewed changes**: summarize at the logical-change level, not per-file. each bullet starts with a past-tense verb (e.g. \`- Extracted shared CLI runtime into a single module\`, \`- Renamed package to pullfrog\`). avoid file paths unless they add clarity. if the changes can be described in one sentence, use one sentence — no bullets needed.
-   b. **Prior review feedback** (only if any were addressed): list only the prior review comments that WERE addressed by the new commits (\`- [x] safeParse instead of parse — addressed\`). omit unaddressed comments. omit this entire section if nothing was addressed. a change can appear in both sections.
-   - no headings, no tables, no prose paragraphs in either section — just bullets
-   - in some cases you may receive a complete diff for the whole pull request instead of an incremental one. when this happens, you will need to determine what changes have happened since Pullfrog's most recent review.
 
-7. Submit — Do NOT call \`report_progress\` or \`create_issue_comment\` — the review is the final record and the progress comment will be cleaned up automatically. the review body always includes the reviewed changes from step 6a. append \`Prior review feedback:\\n\` with the checklist from step 6b only if any prior comments were addressed. Follow these rules:
+5. **triage**: orient on the *incremental* changes — domain, seams, external contracts, user-facing surfaces. pull as much context as you need to render a confident review: read related files, grep for callers of changed symbols, check tests that exercise the touched paths. **you are the synthesizer.**
-   - IF NO NEW ISSUES, NON-SUBSTANTIVE CHANGES ONLY (trivial formatting, import reordering, comment tweaks): do NOT submit a review. Do NOT call \`report_progress\`. Exit — the progress comment will be cleaned up automatically.
+
-   - ELSE IF NEW CRITICAL ISSUES (blocks merge): call \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\` with \`approved: false\`, all comments, and the review body. body opens with a GitHub alert blockquote (e.g. \`> [!CAUTION]\\n> This PR introduces ...\`), then the reviewed changes summary and prior feedback (if any).
+   if the incremental changes are **genuinely trivial**, skip the fan-out entirely and jump to step 10's non-substantive path (do NOT submit a review).
-   - ELSE IF NEW RECOMMENDED CHANGES (non-critical): call \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\` with \`approved: false\`, all comments, and the review body. body opens with \`> [!IMPORTANT]\\n> ...\` alert, then the reviewed changes summary and prior feedback (if any).
+
-   - ELSE IF NO NEW ISSUES, SUBSTANTIVE CHANGES (new functionality, behavior changes, or fixes to prior review feedback): call \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\` to create a PR review. If all previous reviews have been properly addressed and no new issues were discovered, you can set \`approved: true\`. body opens with \`No new issues. Reviewed the following changes:\\n\`, then the reviewed changes summary and prior feedback (if any).`,
+   "Genuinely trivial" (skip): formatting/comment tweaks, import reordering, lockfile regen, mechanical rename of import paths, whitespace-only.
+   "Looks trivial but isn't" (do NOT skip — same anti-patterns as Review mode): 1-line changes to SQL/regex/auth/billing/permissions/signature-verification code; flipping feature-flag defaults or retry/timeout constants; money/tax/HTTP-method/redirect changes; tightening or loosening a comparison operator; mixed diffs with a semantic line buried in formatting.
+   When unsure, treat as non-trivial.
+
+6. **lens decision — 0 or 2+, NEVER 1**.
+
+   The default is **0 lenses**: handle the re-review yourself end-to-end. Most incremental reviews land here — especially thread-reply re-reviews where the user is asking "did you address X?" rather than "review the diff again."
+
+   Dispatch **2+ \`${REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME}\` lenses in parallel** ONLY when ALL of the following are true:
+   - the incremental changes are substantive (>5 files changed AND >200 net new lines), OR touch a high-stakes subsystem (auth, billing, payments, schema migration, webhooks, secrets, RBAC, multi-tenant isolation, cron/scheduling)
+   - you can name 2+ distinct concrete failure modes the new commits plausibly introduce that warrant independent lenses
+   - parallel-orchestrated independent perspectives meaningfully outperform what you'd find solo
+
+   **NEVER dispatch exactly one lens.** Single-lens dispatch adds wall time and cost for no orthogonality benefit. Either go multi-lens (≥2 in parallel) or do the re-review yourself.
+
+   Lens framing follows Review mode: themed lenses (correctness, security, etc.) and subsystem lenses (auth, billing, schema-migration, etc.) — for high-stakes domains lead with the subsystem lens.
+
+7. **fan out (only if step 6 said 2+ lenses)**: dispatch every \`${REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME}\` subagent for this run **IN A SINGLE ASSISTANT TURN, AS MULTIPLE PARALLEL TASK TOOL_USE BLOCKS IN ONE MESSAGE.**
+
+   ⚠️  CRITICAL — PARALLELISM IS THE ONLY REASON LENSES EXIST. ⚠️
+   Default tool-call behavior is **serial dispatch**: emit one Task call, await result, emit next, await, etc. This collapses your fan-out into a sequential review where each lens adds N × (orchestrator-think-time + lens-execution-time) to wall time. **YOU MUST OVERRIDE THIS DEFAULT.** Emit ALL of your Task tool_use blocks in the SAME assistant message, BEFORE you read ANY result from ANY of them.
+
+   ✅ Right pattern: one assistant turn with N Task tool_use blocks → wait → N results arrive together → aggregate.
+   ❌ Wrong pattern: turn 1 = Task(lens A) → turn 2 (after A's result) = Task(lens B). This is the failure mode.
+
+   You can also include your own \`read\` / \`grep\` / \`webfetch\` calls in the SAME turn as the parallel \`${REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME}\` dispatches.
+
+   if a subagent errors out, times out, or returns nothing usable, retry once with the same lens; if it still fails, proceed with partial coverage and note the missing lens in the review body. each subagent gets:
+   - the diff scope (incremental diff path if available, full diff otherwise). do NOT tell them to skip pre-existing issues — that suppresses regressions the new commits amplified; the "issues must be NEW" filter lives at aggregation time (step 8), not in the subagent prompt
+   - **only one lens** — never a multi-section "review for X, Y, and Z" prompt
+   - **a Task \`description\` set to the lens name** — the harness reads this field to label log lines so parallel runs can be told apart.
+   - if the lens touches external contracts, instruct the subagent to verify load-bearing claims via web search and quote source URLs.
+   - ask the subagent to report findings with file paths and NEW line numbers from the full PR diff so you can anchor inline comments.
+
+   delegation discipline:
+   - do NOT summarize the changes for them (biases toward validation frame)
+   - do NOT hand them a curated reading list (let them discover scope)
+   - do NOT pre-shape their output with a finding schema
+   - do NOT mention the other lenses (independence is the point)
+
+8. **aggregate, draft, self-critique**: merge findings (yours + any subagent output if you went multi-lens); de-dup overlaps; trace each finding yourself. drop praise, style preferences, speculative/unverified claims, findings about pre-existing code unrelated to the new commits, anything not actionable, and anything that re-states prior review feedback (heuristic: if the finding's root cause lives in lines the *new commits* added or modified, it's in scope; otherwise drop). also drop **bloat-shaped findings** — proposed fixes that would add defensive checks for cases that can't happen, abstractions used once, comments restating obvious code, tests asserting tautologies, or "just-in-case" guards. subagents are fallible and bias toward recommending changes; the bar for an actionable inline comment is sound + correct + elegant. recommending a change that improves only one of the three (or degrades elegance to nominally improve correctness) makes the codebase worse, not better. To compute "lines the new commits added or modified": if \`incrementalDiffPath\` from step 2 is present, use it directly. Otherwise, take the prior Pullfrog review's \`commit_id\` (returned alongside each entry from \`${t("list_pull_request_reviews")}\` in step 4) and run \`git diff <prior-review-sha>..HEAD\` to isolate the lines added since that review.
+
+   **Hunt for non-anchored concerns before drafting.** After collecting your anchored findings, deliberately scan for concerns that have no specific line to point at — typically: deletion / cleanup plans for code the new commits replace or shadow; rollout sequencing (what happens to in-flight state during deploy / revert?); coverage gaps the new commits imply but don't add; scope questions that only the human can answer (e.g. is the legacy path going away or is this a long-term dual track?); architectural risks the new commits open up that aren't a single-line bug. On substantial incremental diffs (migrations, refactors, multi-file rewrites, version bumps that change runtime semantics), at least one such concern almost always exists; if you can't think of any, your bar is probably too high.
+
+   draft inline comments with NEW line numbers from the full PR diff — attach a \`<details>Technical details</details>\` block to any inline comment whose fix is non-trivial or has cross-file implications (see Inline technical details in the format below). every comment must be actionable, 2-3 sentences max in the visible part.
+
+9. **build the review body**: use the same default format as Review mode (preamble + optional cross-cutting \`### \` sections + optional \`### ℹ️ Nitpicks\`) — scoped to the **incremental delta**, not the full PR. The "Reviewed changes" bullets describe what changed since the prior pullfrog review (each bullet starts with a past-tense verb, e.g. \`- Extracted shared CLI runtime into a single module\`). Do NOT include a separate "Prior review feedback" checklist — that's tracked in the rolling PR summary snapshot for the next agent run, and surfacing it in the user-facing body is noise (changes that addressed prior feedback are already covered by the Reviewed-changes bullets). In some cases you may receive a complete diff for the whole PR instead of an incremental one; when this happens, determine what changed since Pullfrog's most recent review yourself before drafting bullets.
+
+10. Submit — every run must end with EXACTLY ONE of \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\` (substantive review) or \`${t("report_progress")}\` (no-review acknowledgement). do NOT call \`create_issue_comment\` for review output.
+
+   Same callout ladder as Review mode — \`[!CAUTION]\` (red, "will break") → \`[!IMPORTANT]\` (purple, "must address before merging") → \`> ℹ️ ...\` (informational, "minor suggestions only") → \`> ✅ ...\` (green friendly, "no concerns"). Same Fix-button lever: the footer renders a Fix button on every non-approving review, so \`approved: true\` suppresses it. Wrapping mergeable feedback in \`[!IMPORTANT]\` trains users to click Fix on reviews that don't need fixing — pick the tier the author's actual next action justifies.
+
+   Follow these rules:
+   - note: the first create_pull_request_review submission may error with a one-time diff-coverage nudge listing unread TOC regions. retry the same call to proceed — optionally after reading the listed ranges. the pre-flight will not block again this session.
+   - IF NO NEW ISSUES, NON-SUBSTANTIVE CHANGES ONLY (trivial formatting, import reordering, comment tweaks): do NOT submit a review. Instead call \`${t("report_progress")}\` with a 1-2 sentence note explaining no review was warranted (e.g. "No new issues. Changes since last review are formatting-only."). this leaves a visible signal that the run completed.
+   - ELSE IF NEW CRITICAL ISSUES (blocks merge — bugs, security, data loss, broken core flows): call \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\` with \`approved: false\`, all comments, and the review body. body opens with \`> [!CAUTION]\\n> This PR introduces ...\`, followed by the PR summary using the default format below.
+   - ELSE IF NEW MUST-ADDRESS NON-CRITICAL FINDINGS (real consequences if shipped — incorrect behavior, missing validation, regressions the author should fix before merge): call \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\` with \`approved: false\`, all comments, and the review body. body opens with \`> [!IMPORTANT]\\n> ...\`, followed by the PR summary using the default format below. Do NOT use this tier for nits, style preferences, or "consider also" suggestions.
+   - ELSE IF NEW MINOR SUGGESTIONS ONLY (single-line nits, doc/comment polish, defer-able observations, "rough edges"): call \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\` with \`approved: false\`, all comments, and the review body. body opens with \`> ℹ️ No critical issues — minor suggestions inline.\\n\\n\` (vary the wording after ℹ️ to fit the review), followed by the PR summary using the default format below.
+   - ELSE IF INFORMATIONAL OBSERVATIONS (mergeable as-is, but worth surfacing — e.g. prior feedback addressed cleanly with one minor stale doc reference, or a noteworthy positive observation): call \`${t("create_pull_request_review")}\` with \`approved: true\`, NO inline comments, and the review body. body opens with \`> ✅ No new issues found.\\n\\n\` (or similar friendly green opener), followed by the PR summary using the default format below.

+name: git-archaeology
+description: Investigate how code reached its current state — when a line, function, import, or whole file was changed or deleted, who removed it, and what it looked like before. Use when `git blame` came up empty, when content has been refactored away, or when you need the full evolution of a function across commits.
+---
+
+# Git history archaeology
+
+`git blame` only sees what's still in the working tree. For anything that was
+deleted, moved, or refactored away, you need the commands below. Most agents
+under-use them and end up scrolling through `git log -p` instead.
+
+## Output discipline (read first)
+
+`git log -p` on a long-lived file can dump tens of thousands of lines and blow
+the context window. Always:
+
+1. **Start narrow.** Use `--oneline` or `--stat` to get a list of candidate
+   commits.
+2. **Drill in.** Use `git show <sha> -- <path>` for the diff of one specific
+   commit.
+3. **Scope the search.** Add `--since="3 months ago"`, `-n 20`, or a path
+   restriction (`-- <path>`) so output stays manageable.
+4. **Avoid `git log -p` without a path filter** on any non-trivial repo.
+
+## Decision tree (by agent intent)
+
+### "When did this exact line, string, or import disappear?"
+
+```bash
+git log -S'<exact-string>' --oneline -- <file>
+```
+
+The pickaxe. Returns commits that **changed the count** of that string in the
+file. The most recent hit is typically the removal commit. Add `-p` only after
+you've narrowed to a few candidates.
+
+Notes:
+- `-S` is exact-string by default. Add `--pickaxe-regex` to make it a regex.
+- The argument is "cuddled" with `-S` (`-S'foo bar'`), no space.
+- `-S` will not detect pure in-file moves (count unchanged). Use `-G` for that.
+- `--pickaxe-all` shows the entire changeset of matching commits, useful when
+  a commit changes both a definition and its call sites in other files.
+
+### "When did the diff stop matching this regex?"
+
+```bash
+git log -G'<regex>' --oneline -- <file>
+```
+
+Like `-S` but matches any added or removed hunk line against the regex. Use
+`-G` when:
+- You don't know the exact string but know a pattern.
+- You want to catch in-file moves (`-S` won't).
+- You want to find any diff that touched a pattern, even if the count was
+  preserved (e.g., a refactor that changed call sites without removing the
+  function).
+
+### "How did this function evolve over time?"
+
+```bash
+git log -L :<function-name>:<file>
+```
+
+Every commit that touched the function, with diffs scoped to just the function
+body. Works for languages git understands (most mainstream ones).
+
+### "How did lines N–M evolve?"
+
+```bash
+git log -L <N>,<M>:<file>
+```
+
+### "What's the full history of this file, including across renames?"
+
+```bash
+git log --follow --oneline -- <file>      # overview
+git log --follow -p -- <file>             # with diffs (use sparingly)
+```
+
+`--follow` only works for a single file, not directories.
+
+### "Where was a now-deleted line last present?"
+
+Two-step pattern when you have an exact deleted string:
+
+```bash
+# 1. find a historical commit that contained the string
+git log -S'<deleted-string>' --oneline --all -- <file>
+
+# 2. reverse-blame from that commit to find the last commit it survived in
+git blame --reverse <old-sha>..HEAD -- <file>
+```
+
+The reverse blame tells you, for each line, the last commit it survived in
+before being modified or deleted. Pinpoints the exact deletion commit.
+
+### "This file no longer exists — when was it deleted, and what was in it?"
+
+```bash
+# find all commits that touched the path, even on other branches
+git log --all --full-history --oneline -- <deleted-path>
+
+# the most recent of those is usually the deletion. confirm:
+git show <sha> --stat
+
+# view the file's contents at any commit where it existed
+git show <sha>^:<deleted-path>
+```
+
+If you don't know the path, find it from filename alone:
+
+```bash
+# list all delete events with paths
+git log --all --diff-filter=D --summary | grep -i '<filename>'
+
+# or glob across all branches
+git log --all --oneline -- '**/<filename>.*'
+```
+
+### "Who deleted it, in one shot?"
+
+```bash
+git rev-list -n 1 HEAD -- <deleted-path>     # the deletion commit
+git show $(git rev-list -n 1 HEAD -- <deleted-path>) -- <deleted-path>
+```
+
+### "Restore a deleted file (locally, no commit)"
+
+```bash
+git restore --source=<deletion-sha>^ -- <deleted-path>
+# or, on older git:
+git checkout <deletion-sha>^ -- <deleted-path>
+```
+
+The `^` is critical — at the deletion commit the file is already gone, so we
+read from its parent.
+
+### "Search commit messages, not content"
+
+```bash
+git log --all --grep='<text>' --oneline
+git log --all --grep='<text>' -i --oneline    # case-insensitive
+```
+
+Orthogonal to `-S`/`-G`, which only see the diff.
+
+## Standard workflow for "why does this code look like this"
+
+1. `git log --follow --oneline -- <file>` — overview of commits touching it.
+2. If a recent commit looks suspicious: `git show <sha> -- <file>`.
+3. If you expected to find something and it's missing:
+   `git log -S'<expected-string>' --oneline -- <file>`.
+4. For a specific function's full lifecycle:
+   `git log -L :<fn>:<file>`.
+5. For the deletion point of a known string: pickaxe to find an old commit
+   that contained it, then `git blame --reverse <old-sha>..HEAD -- <file>`.
+
+## Useful flags reference
+
+| Flag | Effect |
+|------|--------|
+| `--all` | Search all refs, not just the current branch. Use when investigating something that may have lived only on a feature branch. |
+| `--full-history` | Keeps commits that history-simplification would otherwise drop. Needed for accurate history across merges. |
+| `--follow` | Track a single file across renames. Single-file only. |
+| `-M` / `-C` | Detect renames (`-M`) and copies (`-C`) when reading diffs. |
+| `--diff-filter=D` | Restrict to commits that **deleted** something. `A`=added, `M`=modified, `R`=renamed. |
+| `--source` | When combined with `--all`, annotate each commit with the ref it was reached from. |
+| `--pickaxe-all` | With `-S`/`-G`, show all files in the matching commit, not just the matching file. |
+| `--pickaxe-regex` | Treat the `-S` argument as a regex. |
+| `--since` / `--until` | Time-bound the search. Cheap perf win on big repos. |
+| `-n <count>` | Cap result count. |
+| `--stat` | Per-commit file stats instead of full patches. Good first pass. |
+
+## Notes and pitfalls
+
+- Always include `--` before paths to disambiguate from refs (e.g.
+  `git log -S'foo' -- src/auth.ts`).
+- `-S` triggers on **count change**. A pure refactor that moves a line within
+  the same file will not match. Use `-G` for those.
+- `-G` runs diff twice and greps; it's slower than `-S`. Scope with paths and
+  `--since` on big repos.
+- Without `--all`, `git log -- <path>` shows nothing if the path never existed
+  on the current branch. When in doubt, add `--all`.
+- `git log --full-history -- <path>` alone has had bugs in some git versions
+  for deleted files; pair with `--all` for reliability.
+- For files that were renamed, `git log -- <new-path>` only shows post-rename
+  history. Use `--follow` (one file) or `git log --all -- <old-path>` when
+  hunting across rename events.

+ *
+ * Pins openai/gpt-5.5 (in upstream opencode's Codex `ALLOWED_MODELS` allow
+ * list) and runs the full opencode harness against the developer's / CI's
+ * `CODEX_AUTH_JSON`. Exercises:
+ *
+ *   - installCodexAuth() materializes auth.json at $HOME/.local/share/opencode/
+ *     with `expires: 0` (forces refresh on first request).
+ *   - opencode's CodexAuthPlugin routes openai requests through the ChatGPT
+ *     subscription instead of needing OPENAI_API_KEY.
+ *   - the refresh chain advances during the run (proving the refresh path
+ *     works end-to-end against live Codex auth servers).
+ *   - detectCodexRefresh() would surface the rotation to entryPost.ts for
+ *     write-back to Pullfrog's secret store.
+ *
+ * the post-hook itself runs in a separate GHA `post:` step and is not
+ * invoked by `pnpm runtest`. instead, this test asserts the on-disk auth.json
+ * state that the post-hook would consume, which is the genuine integration
+ * boundary (everything past `detectCodexRefresh` is a single fetch + unit-
+ * tested in codexHome.test.ts).
+ *
+ * requires `CODEX_AUTH_JSON` in the environment. dev-local: put it in
+ * `.env`. CI: provisioned as `secrets.CODEX_AUTH_JSON` and forwarded by the
+ * `action-agents` job env block in `.github/workflows/test.yml`.
