gh stub exiting 2 on the close/api path -> wrapper exit 1 with the
normalized stderr message; mirrors the issue-assign 6b arm. All
touched suites green; brain mirror updated.
- issue-assign + milestone-create: set -o pipefail; the remove-assignee
lookup pipeline now fails loud on provider failure instead of reading
an empty result as a silent no-assignees skip (codex blocker). A
successful lookup with zero assignees still skips the edit.
- test-issue-assign-usage-contract: 6b arm proves provider-exit
normalization end to end (gh stub exiting 2 on issue edit -> wrapper
exit 1 with the normalized stderr message; codex should-fix).
- Battery: 23/23 suites green.
- Option-like value = any token starting with '-' followed by an
alphanumeric (-h, -ab, --help); multi-character short clusters were
still accepted (codex blocker). Bare '-' is reserved (future stdin).
- usage_error now prints the usage text to stderr as well (codex
should-fix): usage output belonged to stdout only on the help path.
- 16/16 usage-contract suites green.
- Value guards now reject option-like values: --anything always, and
single-dash flag shapes (-h, -i). Previously -b --help consumed
--help as the body and performed the write (codex example:
issue-close -i --help proceeding to 'Closed GitHub issue #--help').
Multi-char dash-leading text (-start of a list) stays a legal value.
- Every remaining direct provider exec (gh/tea/CMD arrays across
issue-create/edit/assign/list/view, milestone-*, pr-create/edit,
pr-close, issue-close/reopen) wrapped with rc capture and normalized
to exit 1 with a stderr message — provider exit 2 no longer collides
with the reserved usage-error status.
- All 16 usage-contract suites gained option-like and short-flag arms
(16/16 green). Existing suites re-verified; test-pr-edit and
test-issue-create-interactive-auth fail identically with these
changes stashed (environment-coupled, not regressions; documented).
request-changes and comment both validate their required body
immediately after argument parsing (rc 2, stderr, zero provider
contact). The repo-host-override suite's action-message expectation
updated to the new wording; suite green.
An unsupported --action previously reached platform detection (and
could touch the provider) before failing with a provider-class status;
comment-without-body exited 1 mid-switch. Both now fail fast with
usage_error (rc 2, stderr) immediately after argument parsing. Test
arms added including the zero-provider-contact assertion for
invalid-action runs.
- issue-list + milestone-create: usage() default exit 2, value guards,
missing-title via usage_error.
- lane-brief: getopts replaced with a while/case parser carrying R2
long-flag aliases (--repo --milestone --label/--labels --login
--limit) beside the short forms; login-resolution failure reclassified
from exit 2 to exit 1 (credential class, not an invocation defect).
- Three suites enrolled (population 88); lane-brief pr-linkage suite
still ALL PASS; green in both trees; mirrored to the brain tree.
With this, every agent-facing wrapper in tools/git carries the R1/R4
usage-error contract (22/22 non-guard wrappers; guards keep their own
contracts).
usage_error contract (stderr + exit 2) with value guards on every
value-taking option and the missing-required checks (milestone-close
-t, issue-view -i). Three suites enrolled (population 85); green in
both trees; mirrored to the brain tree.
usage() default exit 2 (usage-error contract); value guards on all
seven value-taking options; -d/--draft stays boolean. Existing
fallback-default-base suite green (29/29). Usage-contract suite
enrolled (population 81); mirrored to the brain tree.
usage() default exit 2; semantic invocation checks (mutual exclusion,
integer/format validation, missing edit option, --login-only-for-Gitea)
exit 2; value guards on all value-taking options; existing pr-edit
suite still green; usage-contract suite enrolled (population 80);
mirrored to the brain tree.
- issue-create: usage() default exit is now 2 (usage-error contract);
unknown option, missing title, and value-less -t/-b/-l/-m land there
with stderr messages; exit-code line added to help. Interactive
-i/--interactive unchanged (boolean, no value arm). Existing
body-safety and interactive-auth suites still green.
- Template bug fixed across ALL seven usage-contract suites:
expect_stderr referenced an unbound $desc (should be $2); latent
until issue-create's capitalized 'Unknown option' missed the
case-sensitive grep and fired it. All seven re-verified green.
- Suite enrolled (population 79); mirrored to the brain tree.
issue-edit already used long-flag-first parsing; this adds the rc=2
usage-error contract (unknown option, missing -i, value-less flags
across all five options), the exit-code line in help, and the enrolled
usage-contract suite (population 78). Mirrored to the brain tree.
-b/--body canonical review comment flag with -c/--comment alias; usage
errors stderr + exit 2 (unknown option, missing -n/-a, value-less
flags including -a/-l/-r/-H, and the semantic check: request-changes
without a comment). Existing pr-review suites still green.
Suite enrolled in framework-shell CI (enumeration guard OK); mirrored
to the brain tree.
Same contract as issue-close (7a38eed1): -b/--body canonical comment
flag with -c/--comment alias; usage errors stderr + exit 2 (unknown
option, missing required, value-less flags); GitHub-path provider
failures normalized to exit 1.
Both new suites enrolled in framework-shell CI (enumeration guard OK,
population 76). pr-close's suite uses FAILING provider stubs (exit 99):
its API fallback treats a successful curl as a closed PR, so exit-0
stubs let sandbox arms succeed (measured); post-sandbox contact
assertions are correspondingly scoped, parser arms remain zero-contact.
Mirrored to the brain tree; all usage-contract suites green in both.
Same contract as issue-comment (PR #1462): -b/--body canonical comment
flag with -c/--comment alias; usage errors stderr + exit 2 (unknown
option, missing -i, value-less flags); provider failures normalized to
exit 1 on the GitHub path (gh's own usage errors exit 2 and would
collide with the reserved status).
New suite test-issue-close-usage-contract.sh, enrolled in
framework-shell CI (enumeration guard OK, population 74). Probe
assertions split: parser arms must contact zero providers; sandbox arms
may issue detection reads only (tea login list), never gh/curl.
Existing fail-closed suite still green. Mirrored to the brain tree.
Codex review of a27b7dc9 (blocker): check-test-enumeration.sh rejects
unenumerated test files.
- test-issue-comment-usage-contract.sh enrolled in test:framework-shell
(hermetic by construction: PATH stubs, sandboxed runner, no network).
- test-issue-comment-readback.sh enrolled and its stale exclusion removed.
The exclusion's own note anticipated this: 'joins CI after the
wrapper-half hermeticity fix' - that fix (neutralizing seat-exported
MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY / MOSAIC_BRAIN_HOME that escape the sandboxed HOME)
landed in a27b7dc9. Suite green in brain and worktree trees tonight.
Enumeration guard: OK (population 73, enumerated 60, excluded 14).
Upstream of brain commits 08a00149 + 971586ef + the arm-6 sandbox fix
(brain 5th commit of 2026-08-28 series):
- R1: -b/--body is the canonical comment flag (matches issue-create,
issue-edit, pr-create, pr-edit); -c/--comment stays a compatible alias.
- R4: usage errors print to stderr and exit 2, distinct from provider,
credential, and verification failures (exit 1). Value-less flags fail
loudly (previously -c with no value died silently at rc=1 via set -e on
the failed shift 2). gh failures on the GitHub path normalize to exit 1
(gh's own usage errors exit 2 and would collide with the reserved code).
- Tests: new usage-contract suite (help rc, unknown/missing/value-less rc=2
on stderr, alias parse acceptance under a sandboxed runner, GitHub-path
exit normalization with a stubbed gh, zero provider contact on parser
failure); readback suite gains case 11 (full verified write via -b) and
neutralizes seat-exported MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY / MOSAIC_BRAIN_HOME that
escape the sandboxed HOME (documented HTTP 401 / fail-loud shapes).
Driver: a fleet seat full-stopped on an issue-comment usage error because
usage failures were indistinguishable from provider failures and the stop
gate treated every wrapper failure as blocking.
Per ops-ci-01's procedure (comments 23386/23394, brain D27): pipeline config
travels with the commit under test, so the controlled rerun requires the pinned
anchor in the PR head itself. This merge absorbs everything next took since the
original merge parent (1bdeed62): the ci-base pin (cb9a0d1, lock-9cb7ffcd8828),
the legacy-credential removal (#1325), and the ci-queue-wait statuses:null fix
(#1129 — the branch from the divergence analysis, now landed).
One conflict, same file as round 1: test:framework-shell union — our 54-entry
chain plus next's new test-ci-queue-wait-no-status.sh entry at its position
(55 entries, every target existence-verified). Enumeration guard green:
population 61, enumerated 46, excluded (signed) 16.
