# skills/code-review/scripts Agent Contract
Scripts here provide bounded, provider-neutral review/challenge wrappers and
parsers for Claude, Kimi, OpenCode, and Codex.
Rules:
- Preserve no-tools posture and structured output validation. A malformed,
timeout, or inconclusive wrapper result is not a pass.
- **Never pin the parser to a CLI version's vocabulary.** `parse_probe_result.py`
gates on *shape*, not on field/value names: the isolation proof is the exact
`tools` allowlist plus the tool_use scan, which no init field can bypass.
Field-name and value whitelists were tried twice (`fast_mode_state`, then
`capabilities`) and both times a routine CLI release took every Claude lane
down while proving nothing. So: unknown init fields are tolerated when scalar
or empty-container, and `agents`/`capabilities` are list-of-strings checks
with no value vocabulary. Only `permissionMode` stays value-pinned (it widens
what the runtime may do with no tool added).
- **Keep unsafe *values* out of the schema-drift class.** An unrecognized shape
means this lane cannot verify isolation → fallback-eligible. A known field
carrying an unsafe value (`permissionMode: "bypassPermissions"`) is a breached
boundary → terminal. They report through different reasons and different
buckets (`unknown_fields` vs `unsafe_values`) precisely so a real privilege
escalation cannot inherit the drift class's softer `next_action`. Any new
value-pinned field goes in `unsafe_values`.
- When every Claude run goes inconclusive with "unrecognized surface-shaped init
field", the CLI added a NON-EMPTY list/dict under a name the parser does not
know — the one shape that could carry a new invocable surface. That reason is
fallback-eligible (`capability_missing`), not a terminal boundary violation,
so review routes to another client meanwhile. Recipe: (1) capture a normal
wrapper invocation and diff its formal review stream's init event against the
parser's known fields; do not add a separate inference probe; (2) decide
whether the new container is a model-invocable surface — if it is, it belongs
in the required-empty set, not the allowlist; (3) if it is host metadata, add
the name to `KNOWN_SAFE_INIT_METADATA_FIELDS` (or give it a shape check),
never a value whitelist; (4) add RED/GREEN fixtures to
`test_parse_probe_result.sh` and record the RED round in the slice's own plan
under `specs/` (see `specs/012-challenge-index-default/plan.md` under
"Test / register coverage" for the shape); (5) full dual-track before landing.
- **A fail-closed stop must carry the evidence that justifies it.** When a lane
refuses to cascade *because* the output may hold a real finding
(`concern_evidence`), a boolean plus a fixed reason string is not enough: the
operator is told a finding exists but not what it says, so the documented
reject-and-rerun remediation runs blind and a false positive is
indistinguishable from a real one. Emit a bounded, line-selected excerpt
(`concern_excerpt.py`) — matched lines only, never the raw verdict, which may
echo the packet and would widen the evidence row past the class a schema-valid
`findings` result already persists. Wrapper run dirs are deleted on exit and the
gate unlinks the frozen packet, so anything not in the emitted payload is gone.
`test_concern_excerpt.sh` is the firing path; keep new stop paths covered by it.
- Keep review and challenge lanes distinct; do not let one satisfy the other.
- Do not execute target-repo code or grant broad tools from the reviewer lane.
- Parser changes need tests with positive, finding, malformed, and inconclusive
cases.
- - A recipe step here must never cite a repo path that does not exist in this
- repo, and a step whose target is absent is not a step — a contributor cannot
- run it. Backticked paths in prose are invisible to `check-markdown-links.py`,
- which resolves only Markdown inline-link destinations in tracked `*.md`, so
- nothing else catches this: verify each cited path resolves before landing, and
- when one is already dead, repoint it at what the repo does rather than
- creating the missing target — back-filling it fabricates evidence for a round
- nobody ran.
+ - A recipe step here must never cite a repo path that does not exist in this repo — for the specs/ namespace that is now machine-checked and blocking — and a step whose target is absent is not a step, because a contributor cannot run it. Backticked paths in prose are invisible to `check-markdown-links.py`,
+ which resolves only Markdown inline-link destinations in tracked `*.md`; the
+ gap that leaves is now closed for one namespace by
+ `scripts/check-spec-references.py`, which runs in `make test` and CI and fails
+ when a backticked specs/ token does not resolve. Verify each cited path
+ resolves before landing, and when one is already dead, repoint it at what the
+ repo does rather than creating the missing target — back-filling it fabricates
+ evidence for a round nobody ran.
+ - **A path TEMPLATE is not written as a citation.** That checker has no
+ exemption: a backticked token beginning specs/ must resolve, full stop, because
+ the exemption that used to carve out angle-bracket shapes produced five
+ separate bypasses and was deleted. Write a shape by naming it without the
+ prefix and leaving the prefix in prose — a `<NNN>-<slug>/plan.md` file under
+ specs/ — or put it in a fenced block. Keep the backticks: an unbackticked angle
+ bracket is swallowed as an HTML tag when the Markdown renders.
