Defame1297 14248e04b9 docs: fix the review findings on the hook-contract retirement
Why: a review of 4de5b6b and 3c5f6a6 found seven places that still
described the retired external hook contract as current, or that could
pass without checking anything.

Implementation Notes:
- gates.md: drop the "one caveat below" pointer; the caveat is gone.
- SIMPLIFICATION-AUDIT.md: the §7 note now says all but one entry is
  closed and lists 36 (4de5b6b) as struck. Finding 2's count chain gets
  a closing note: pre-push is 8 repo-authored hooks (10 reported).
- .pre-commit-config.yaml: the check-vale-style-sync comment points at
  case 32 (one-plugin narrowing guard), not the deleted case 33.
- ADR-0014: the retirement pointer now covers the ADR-0025 amendment
  above it too, naming case 33 and the exported hook IDs. ADR-0022 gets
  a reciprocal amended-by note on its check-release-needed comparison.
  Historical body text is unchanged.
- test-vale-wrap.sh case 32: property 3 fails when a class's corpus
  regex matches no tracked file, instead of passing vacuously after a
  layout move. The corpus regexes are now globals so a new Part D can
  point them at a missing layout and require that failure.

# 28-31 alone, none naming the cause. This names it once and holds the
# Vale-dependent cases back instead. Static on purpose: it needs no vale, so it
# runs on the machines that skip everything else.
#
# `BasedOnStyles =` left EMPTY is deliberately not a defect here: vale loads
# that config and lints the file with no style, which is the silent case 28
# exists to catch, and catching it here instead would leave 28's

# ===== END VALE-DEPENDENT REGION (cases 1-15) ================================
# --- 16. No unguarded `"${arr[@]}"` expansion survives in any script that runs
# on macOS. bash before 4.4 — including the 3.2 that macOS still ships as
# /bin/bash — treats that form on an *empty* array as an unbound variable under
# `set -u` and aborts. The portable form is `${arr[@]+"${arr[@]}"}`. This is a
# static check because no bash 5 host can reproduce the abort at runtime: the
# construct is only fatal on the older shell, so absence of the construct is the
# property to assert. `${#arr[@]}` is deliberately not flagged — the count form
# is safe on 3.2. Neither is an array seeded with at least one element where it
# is declared and never reset to empty: it cannot be empty at any expansion
# site, so the construct is not a hazard there and demanding the guarded form
# would be a wrong test. Neither is an expansion whose own line first proves the
# array non-empty (`[[ ${#a[@]} -eq 0 ]] || rm -rf "${a[@]}"`) — the short-circuit
# means the expansion is unreachable when the array is empty.
#
# The scanned file list is DERIVED, not hand-maintained. A hardcoded list only
# guards the scripts someone remembered to add to it, and it silently fails to
# cover anything new: it omitted scripts/lib/batch-run.sh — the shared runner
# this branch introduced, whose own header (batch-run.sh:9-11) documents it as
# bash-3.2-safe — along with four other scripts/*.sh. Deriving the list means a
# new script is covered the moment it lands. The script headers name bash 3.2 as
# an explicit repo target -- scripts/lib/batch-run.sh:9 ("both callers are
# explicitly bash-3.2-safe") and providers/claude-code/statusline-command.sh:100
# ("macOS's system bash, and an explicit repo target") -- so the scope is four
# globs, each floor-asserted below:
# - scripts/**/*.sh — repo tooling and pre-commit hook scripts
# - tests/*.sh — the runners and every regression test
# - plugins/*/.apm/**/*.sh — the scripts plugins ship to users
# - providers/**/*.sh — the scripts install.sh deploys to user machines
# .apm/ is the only plugin content scanned, and it is the only plugin content
# there is: the generated flat plugins/*/skills/** mirror was deleted with
# native plugin-install support, so there is no second copy to double-report.
# Scanning .apm/ is what closed the gap where skill-audit's vale-wrap.sh was
# covered but agent-audit's byte-identical copy of it was not.
# providers/**/*.sh was excluded until issue #96: statusline-command.sh seeded
# `parts=()` empty and expanded it unguarded, a real latent hazard rather than a
# false positive, in a file this case did not own. That expansion is now guarded,
# so the glob is in the table below and the deployed provider scripts get the
# same coverage as scripts/, tests/ and plugins/*/.apm/. This is the glob most
# worth having: install.sh copies providers/ content onto every user machine, and
# it is also the glob most likely to look redundant to a future reader, because
# the hazard it catches is invisible on any modern bash — bash 4.4 stopped
# treating an empty-array expansion as unbound, so a bare "${a[@]}" under `set -u`
# runs clean on the maintainer's bash 5 and aborts only on macOS's bash 3.2.
# A runtime test cannot demonstrate that without a 3.2 binary; this static scan
# is the enforcement, which is why its floor must never be dropped to zero.
#
# Four constructs are checked, because the expansion scan cannot see any of the
# other three:
# - `mapfile`/`readarray` — bash 4.0+ builtins. run-tests.sh carried one until
# it was replaced with a `while read` loop.
# - `declare -A` — bash 4.0+ associative arrays. check-vale-style-sync.sh
# carried a pair until they became index-scanned plain arrays.
# - `wait -n` — bash 4.3+. A prior review round found this live in run-bats.sh.
# - `nproc` — GNU coreutils, absent on macOS entirely. Same review round, same
# file. `getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN` is the portable spelling batch-run.sh
# settled on.
# The last two had no static guard anywhere before this, and
# `shellcheck --severity=warning` (.pre-commit-config.yaml) pins no target
# version, so it does not catch them either — meaning the guard against the last
# regression would not have caught the last regression.

# deploy-manifest.sh -- so without it those expansions read as hazards. It works
# by parsing each file's own source-directive comments. That makes it silently
# dependent on those paths resolving: a directive naming a file that is not
# there does not error, it just contributes no seed file, and the exemption
# quietly stops covering what it was written to cover.
#
# tests/run-tests.sh shipped exactly that for the length of PR #95 -- a directive
# resolving to neither the repo root nor the script's own directory. Nothing
# caught it: shellcheck's own SC1091 is `info`, and .pre-commit-config.yaml pins
# `--severity=warning`. The live consequence was nil only because both of
# run-tests.sh's expansions were independently guarded.
#
# Part C is the assertion that would have caught it, and it is the reason this
# case is not just fixture theatre: it holds every real directive in the scanned
# corpus to the resolution rule, so the next stale one fails here rather than
# lying dormant. Parts A and B pin the mechanism Part C depends on -- that

# --- 28-30. `.vale.ini` glob coverage ---------------------------------------
#
# Rehomed from scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh, deleted by ADR-0025. That
# script's text-level assertions diffed skill-audit's Vale copy against
# agent-audit's and went moot when the merge into factory-audit left one copy.
# Its GLOB-COVERAGE probes did not. Merging the copies does not make a glob typo
# impossible -- a typo in any one of the three sections of the surviving
# `.vale.ini` still skips that file shape -- and this file, which already owns
# the wrapper's behaviour against that same config, is where they belong.
#
# The original comment, preserved because it names the failure mode rather than
# describing the check: nothing in the repo read the `.vale.ini` at all, "and
# that is what let a one-character glob typo silently disable the prefilter for
# a whole file type: the hook still MATCHES the file via its `files:` regex, so
# pre-commit reports neither `Skipped` nor an error; vale lints zero files,
# prints `0 errors ... in 1 file` and exits 0, and the hook shows `Passed`."
# Measured again against the merged config while rehoming these: a mutated
# `[**/SKILL.md]` -> `[**/SKILLS.md]` reports `0 errors ... in 0 files` and
# exits 0. Every gate in this repo reads that as a pass.
#
# ADR-0014's reason for two hook IDs was this same problem, and .pre-commit-
# config.yaml still carries both IDs after the merge for that reason.
# One representative path per file shape the prefilter is supposed to cover,
# tagged with the `.vale.ini` section that is supposed to cover it and with
# whether that path is covered by that section ALONE.
#
# `isolating` is load-bearing, not decoration. `.apm/agents/demo.agent.md`
# matches BOTH `[**/agents/*.md]` and `[**/*.agent.md]`, so breaking either one
# leaves it linted by the other and a probe on it alone would prove nothing
# about which section is live. `copilot/demo.agent.md` -- a Copilot agent file
# outside any `agents/` directory -- is what pins `[**/*.agent.md]` on its own,
# and bare `demo.md` under `agents/` is what pins `[**/agents/*.md]`. Case 29
# asserts that separation instead of trusting this column.
#
# The two `.claude/`-prefixed rows carry the location-independence property
# (original comment, unchanged in substance): a `SKILL.md` outside `plugins/`
# still matches `[**/SKILL.md]` and gets linted normally -- the globs constrain
# filename shape, not location. Every other row starts with `plugins/`, so
# narrowing a glob to a `plugins/`-shaped path (`[**/SKILL.md]` ->
# `[**/.apm/skills/*/SKILL.md]`) left all of them matching while the
# project-scope shape started linting as `0 errors ... in 0 files`.
#
# `demo.md` (bare, no `.agent.md` suffix) exercises `[**/agents/*.md]` in
# isolation, not because any current `.apm/agents/*` file has that shape -- per
# ADR-0016 they are all `*.agent.md`. factory-audit's agent flow can still be
# handed that shape in a consuming repo, which is what keeps the row honest.
#
# These rows describe what factory-audit's own Vale call can be handed at
# runtime in any repo, not what this repo's hooks select: most of them sit
# outside `.pre-commit-config.yaml`'s `^plugins/`-anchored `files:` regexes on
# purpose. The hook-scope half that once held each row to a hook regex read the
# published `.pre-commit-hooks.yaml`, which is retired (ADR-0014, 2026-09-16
# amendment); case 32 owns the local hooks' scope.

# --- 31. No Kyberforge rule is overridden out of its blocking level ----------
#
# Also rehomed from the deleted scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh (ADR-0025).
# This one is not a glob probe and not a copy diff: it is a third class the
# merge took out with the script, and cases 28-30 cannot backstop it. They key
# on `Kyberforge.VagueWording` and `KyberforgeCopilot.ProactivePhrase`, so
# DescriptionOpener, PaddingPhrase, SentenceOpenerThereIs and CompositionNote
# can each be retired underneath a passing probe.
#
# The original's comments, verbatim:
#
# Per-rule overrides are the third way to retire a rule without touching a
# style file or a glob. Per ADR-0013, every rule is `level: error` and every
# alert is a FAIL — there is no ignorable tier. Vale's exit
# code keys on `error` alerts alone, so any override that leaves a rule at
# anything other than `error` still lints the file, still exits 0, and still
# shows `Passed` in pre-commit. The glob probe below cannot backstop this: it
# keys on one `Kyberforge.VagueWording` alert, so DescriptionOpener,
# PaddingPhrase, SentenceOpenerThereIs and ProactivePhrase can each be retired
# underneath a passing probe.
#
# Asserted as an ALLOWLIST, not a blocklist of `NO|warning|suggestion`, because
# that is vale 3.15.2's own semantic: only the exact tokens `YES` and `error`
# keep a rule blocking. `warning`/`suggestion` downgrade it (alert still
# printed, exit 0 — invisible, since pre-commit swallows a passing hook's
# output); every other value — `NO`, `false`, `0`, `off`, `n`, empty,
# `garbage`, and lowercase `yes`, `true`, `1`, `on` — silences the rule
# outright. Lowercase `yes` is the trap a blocklist cannot cover: it reads as
# "enabled" to a human and disables the rule. Verified by enumerating the
# value space against vale 3.15.2.
#
# The allowlist demands a BARE `YES`/`error` with nothing after it, which also
# rejects `error # note` and `error ; note`. Vale itself strips those — a
# whitespace-preceded `#` or `;` comment is removed and the rule stays live —
# so rejecting them is deliberately stricter than vale, not a workaround for
# it. Uniformity is worth more here than the ability to annotate a line that
# should not exist: no shipped `.vale.ini` has any override line at all, and
# the failure mode is a loud false positive rather than a silent pass. The
# genuine hazard is the no-space form — `error# note` and `error; note` are
# NOT stripped and silence the rule outright — and a rule that demands a bare
# token catches those without having to reimplement vale's comment parsing.
#
# `[A-Za-z0-9_-]` on both halves of the name, not `[A-Za-z]`: a rule named
# `Kyberforge.Vague2` is genuinely silenced by `= NO` (verified: 1 error ->
# 0 errors), so an alpha-only class would let a digit-bearing rule name slip
# past the gate. All five current rule names are pure alpha, so this is
# forward cover, not a live hole.
# The detector, with the original's two regexes unchanged. Part A runs it
# against the real config and Part B runs it against synthesised lines, so the
# thing Part B proves is the same thing Part A relies on — a second, "equivalent"
# copy of the regex for the fixtures would prove nothing about the live check.
#
# Original comment on the missing `-q`, kept because it names the trap: No
# `grep -q` in that pipeline on purpose: `-q` exits on its first match, and
# under `set -o pipefail` the resulting SIGPIPE on the upstream grep would make
# the whole pipeline report 141 and read as "no findings".

#
# The one assertion of the deleted scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh (ADR-0025)
# that cases 28-31 did not rehome, re-scoped onto what is actually at risk. The
# original compared the `files:` regexes across the two manifests, selecting each
# hook by its `entry:` (`entry ~ skill "/scripts/vale-wrap.sh"`, old line 220) --
# which worked only because the two skills gave the two hooks two distinct entry
# paths. After the merge both hooks share one `entry:`, so that selector can no
# longer tell them apart and a faithful port would have to key on hook `id:`
# instead. That port was case 33, deleted with the published
# `.pre-commit-hooks.yaml` it compared against (ADR-0014, 2026-09-16
# amendment); its one guard that did not depend on the second manifest -- a
# local regex narrowed to a single plugin -- is property 3 below. Nothing else
# in the repo asserts this repo's OWN prefilter regexes --
# `.pre-commit-config.yaml`'s vale-audit-prefilter-skill and
# vale-audit-prefilter-agent. Narrow either one to match zero files and every gate still passes: pre-commit does not
# error on a hook that matches nothing, it simply never runs it. That is the same
# silent-zero failure mode case 28 guards on the vale side of this pipeline, one
# layer up -- there the glob scans 0 files and exits 0, here the hook is handed 0
# files and never starts.
#
# Three properties, because matching SOMETHING is not the same as matching the
# right thing: a regex loosened to `^plugins/` would match hundreds of files and
# clear a bare non-emptiness check while handing vale a corpus it has no glob
# for. So each hook must also select only its own artifact class -- ADR-0014's
# reason for two hook IDs, carried across the merge by ADR-0025's comment in the
# config, is precisely that the two scopes stay independently addressable.
# And each hook must select ALL of its class's authoring source: a regex
# narrowed from `^plugins/[^/]+/...` to `^plugins/kyberforge/...` still matches
# tracked files, all of the right class, while silently dropping every other
# plugin out of the prefilter. Measured before any case caught it: that exact

# --- 34. Every glob section loads a real style, asserted without vale --------
#
# Case 28 asks this behaviourally -- it lints a probe through the real config
# and watches for a Kyberforge alert -- but every probe of it that can answer
# the question is behind `VALE_READY`. On a machine with no vale those probes
# do not run, the config is then read by case 0 alone, and case 0 deliberately
# exempts an EMPTY `BasedOnStyles` so that 28's style-not-loaded branch keeps
# something left to detect. Between the two, an emptied `BasedOnStyles` is
# caught by nothing in a non-strict run: vale loads that config, lints every
# file the section matches with NO rule, prints `0 errors ... in 1 file` and
# exits 0, and every gate in this repo reads that as a pass. That is the
# silent-pass class ADR-0013 exists to prevent, and `--strict` -- which a
# consuming repo's install does not run -- is the only thing standing in front of it.
#
# So this case asks the same question of the config TEXT, with no dependency on
# vale being installed. It is a separate case rather than an addition to either
# neighbour: case 0's exemption and case 28's behavioural branch both stay
# exactly as documented, and no property is owned twice.
#
# The StylesPath half is the deleted scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh's
# requirement (ADR-0025), restored. `vale_config_defects0` absolutizes with
# `[[ "$sp" == /* ]] || sp="$dir/$sp"`, which ACCEPTS an absolute StylesPath --
# a path that resolves on the machine that wrote it and on no other. Relative
# resolution against the config's own directory is the only reason the bundled
# styles are found under a CONSUMING repo's install of factory-audit, so an
# absolute one passes every check here and hard-fails every repo that installs
# the plugin. It is asserted here, not in case 0, to keep case 0's
# scope the one its comment describes.
