+ * E2E integration test — POST /api/bootstrap/setup

+ * Regression guard for the `import type { BootstrapSetupDto }` class-erasure
+ * bug (IUV-M01, issue #436).
+ *
+ * When `BootstrapSetupDto` is imported with `import type`, TypeScript erases
+ * the class at compile time. NestJS then sees `Object` as the `@Body()`
+ * metatype, and ValidationPipe with `whitelist:true + forbidNonWhitelisted:true`
+ * treats every property as non-whitelisted, returning:
+ *
+ *   400 { message: ["property email should not exist", "property password should not exist"] }
+ *
+ * The fix is a plain value import (`import { BootstrapSetupDto }`), which
+ * preserves the class reference so Nest can read the class-validator decorators.
+ *
+ * This test MUST fail if `import type` is re-introduced on `BootstrapSetupDto`.
+ * A controller unit test that constructs ValidationPipe manually won't catch
+ * this — only the real DI binding path exercises the metatype lookup.

 **ID:** install-ux-v2-20260405
 **Statement:** The install-ux-hardening mission shipped the plumbing (uninstall, masked password, hooks consent, unified flow, headless path), but the first real end-to-end run surfaced a critical regression and a collection of UX failings that make the wizard feel neither quick nor intelligent. This mission closes the bootstrap regression as a hotfix, then rethinks the first-run experience around a provider-first, intent-driven flow with a drill-down main menu and a genuinely fast quick-start.

+| #442 | docs: mark IUV-M01 complete — mosaic-v0.0.26 released                    | 78388437 |
+
+### Bugs fixed (all 4 in worker's PR #440)
+
+1. **DTO class erasure** — `apps/gateway/src/admin/bootstrap.controller.ts:16` — dropped `type` from `import { BootstrapSetupDto }`. Guarded by new e2e test `bootstrap.e2e.spec.ts` (4 cases) that binds through a real Nest app with `ValidationPipe { whitelist, forbidNonWhitelisted }`. Test suite needed `unplugin-swc` in `apps/gateway/vitest.config.ts` to emit `decoratorMetadata` (tsx/esbuild can't).
+2. **Wizard silent failure** — `packages/mosaic/src/wizard.ts` — removed the `&& headlessRun` guard so `!bootstrapResult.completed` now aborts in both modes.
+3. **Port prefill** — root cause was clack's `defaultValue` vs `initialValue` semantics (`defaultValue` only fills on empty submit, `initialValue` prefills the buffer). Added an `initialValue` field to `WizardPrompter.text()` interface, threaded through clack and headless prompters, switched `gateway-config.ts` port/url prompts to use it.
+4. **Pi SDK copy** — `packages/mosaic/src/stages/welcome.ts` — intro copy now lists Pi SDK.
+
+### Mid-delivery hiccup — tsconfig/eslint cross-contamination
+
+Worker's initial approach added `vitest.config.ts` to `apps/gateway/tsconfig.json`'s `include` to appease the eslint parser. That broke `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/gateway build` with TS6059 (`vitest.config.ts` outside `rootDir: "src"`). The publish pipeline on the `#440` merge commit failed.
+
+**Correct fix** (worker's PR #441): leave `tsconfig.json` clean (`include: ["src/**/*"]`) and instead add the file to `allowDefaultProject` in the root `eslint.config.mjs`. This keeps the tsc program strict while letting eslint resolve a parser project for the standalone config file.
+
+**Pattern to remember**: when adding root-level `.ts` config files (vitest, build scripts) to a package with `rootDir: "src"`, the eslint parser project conflict is solved with `allowDefaultProject`, NEVER by widening tsconfig include. I had independently arrived at the same fix on a branch before the worker shipped #441 — deleted the duplicate.
+
+### Residual follow-ups carried forward
+
+1. Headless prompter fallback order: worker set `initialValue > defaultValue` in the headless path. Correct semantic, but any future headless test that explicitly depends on `defaultValue` precedence will need review.
+2. Vitest + SWC decorator metadata pattern is now the blessed approach for NestJS e2e tests in this monorepo. Any other package that adds NestJS e2e tests should mirror `apps/gateway/vitest.config.ts`.
+
+### Next action
+
+- Close out orchestrator doc sync (this commit): mark M01 subtasks done in `TASKS.md`, update manifest phase to Execution, commit scratchpad session 2, PR to main.
+- After merge, delegate IUV-M02 (sonnet, isolated worktree). Dependencies: IUV-02-01 (CORS→FQDN) starts unblocked since M01 is released; first real task for the M02 worker is diagnosing the skill installer failure modes (IUV-02-02) against the fresh 0.0.26 install.
+
+## Session 3 — 2026-04-05 (IUV-M02 delivery + close-out)
+
+### Outcome
+
+IUV-M02 shipped. PR #444 merged (`172bacb3`), issue #437 closed. 18 new tests (13 CORS derivation, 5 skill sync).
+
+### Changes
+
+**CORS → FQDN (IUV-02-01):**
+
+- `packages/mosaic/src/stages/gateway-config.ts` — replaced raw "CORS origin" text prompt with "Web UI hostname" (default: `localhost`). Added HTTPS follow-up for remote hosts. Pure `deriveCorsOrigin(hostname, port, useHttps?)` function exported for testability.
+- Headless: `MOSAIC_HOSTNAME` env var as friendly alternative; `MOSAIC_CORS_ORIGIN` still works as full override.
+- `packages/mosaic/src/types.ts` — added `hostname?: string` to `GatewayState`.
+
+**Skill installer rework (IUV-02-02 + IUV-02-03):**
+
+- Root cause confirmed: `syncSkills()` in `finalize.ts` ignored `state.selectedSkills` entirely. The multiselect UI was a no-op.
+- `packages/mosaic/src/stages/finalize.ts` — `syncSkills()` rewritten to accept `selectedSkills[]`, returns typed `SyncSkillsResult`, passes `MOSAIC_INSTALL_SKILLS` (colon-separated) as env var to the bash script.
+- `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/_scripts/mosaic-sync-skills` — added bash associative array whitelist filter keyed on `MOSAIC_INSTALL_SKILLS`. When set, only whitelisted skills are linked. Empty/unset = all skills (legacy behavior preserved for `mosaic sync` outside wizard).
+- Failure surfaces: silent `catch {}` replaced with typed error reporting through `p.warn()`.
+
+### Next action
+
+- Delegate IUV-M03 (opus, isolated worktree) — the architectural milestone: provider-first intelligent flow, drill-down main menu, Quick Start fast path, agent self-naming. This is the biggest piece of the mission.

+- Menu items show completion state: `[done]` hint after configuration.
+- `Finish & Apply` is always last and requires at minimum a provider key (or explicit skip).
+- The menu tracks configured sections in `WizardState.completedSections`.
+
+### Headless bypass
+
+When `MOSAIC_ASSUME_YES=1` or `!process.stdin.isTTY`, the entire menu is skipped.
+The wizard runs: defaults + env var overrides -> finalize -> gateway config -> bootstrap.
+This preserves full backward compatibility with `tools/install.sh --yes`.
+
+## 2. Quick Start path
+
+Target: 3-5 questions max. Under 90 seconds for a returning user.
+
+### Questions asked
+
+1. **Provider API key** (Anthropic/OpenAI) - `text` prompt with paste support
+2. **Admin email** - `text` prompt
+3. **Admin password** - masked + confirmed
+
+### Questions skipped (with defaults)

+### Flow
+
+```
+Quick Start selected
+  -> "Paste your LLM API key (Anthropic recommended):"
+  -> [auto-detect provider from key prefix: sk-ant-* = Anthropic, sk-* = OpenAI]
+  -> Apply all defaults
+  -> Run finalize (sync framework, write configs, link assets, sync skills)
+  -> Run gateway config (headless-style with defaults + provided key)
+  -> "Admin email:"
+  -> "Admin password:" (masked + confirm)
+  -> Run gateway bootstrap
+  -> Done
+```
+
+## 3. Provider-first flow
+
+Provider configuration (currently buried in gateway-config stage as "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY")
+moves to a dedicated top-level menu item and is the first question in Quick Start.
+
+### Provider detection
+
+The API key prefix determines the provider:
+
+- `sk-ant-api03-*` -> Anthropic (Claude)
+- `sk-*` -> OpenAI
+- Empty/skipped -> no provider (gateway starts without LLM access)
+
+### Storage
+
+The provider key is stored in the gateway `.env` as `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` or `OPENAI_API_KEY`.
+For Quick Start, this replaces the old interactive prompt in `collectAndWriteConfig`.
+
+### Menu section: "Providers"
+
+In the drill-down menu, "Providers" lets users:
+
+1. Enter/change their API key
+2. See which provider was detected
+3. Optionally configure a second provider
+
+For v0.0.27, we support Anthropic and OpenAI keys only. The key is stored
+in `WizardState` and written during finalize.
+
+## 4. Intent intake + naming (deterministic fallback - Option B)
+
+### Rationale
+
+At install time, the LLM provider may not be configured yet (chicken-and-egg).
+We use **Option B: deterministic advisor** for the install wizard.
+
+### Flow (Agent Identity menu section)
+
+```
+1. "What will this agent primarily help you with?"
+   -> Select from presets:
+      - General purpose assistant
+      - Software development
+      - DevOps & infrastructure
+      - Research & analysis
+      - Content & writing
+      - Custom (free text description)
+
+2. System proposes a thematic name based on selection:
+   - General purpose -> "Mosaic"
+   - Software development -> "Forge"
+   - DevOps & infrastructure -> "Sentinel"
+   - Research & analysis -> "Atlas"
+   - Content & writing -> "Muse"
+   - Custom -> "Mosaic" (default)
+
+3. "Your agent will be named 'Forge'. Press Enter to accept or type a new name:"
+   -> User confirms or overrides
+```
+
+### Storage
+
+- Agent name -> `WizardState.soul.agentName` -> written to SOUL.md
+- Intent category -> `WizardState.agentIntent` (new field) -> written to `~/.config/mosaic/agent.json`
+
+### Post-install LLM-powered intake (future)
+
+A future `mosaic configure identity` command can use the configured LLM to:
+
+- Accept free-text intent description
+- Generate an expounded persona
+- Propose a contextual name
+
+This is explicitly out of scope for the install wizard.
+
+## 5. Headless backward-compat
+
+### Supported env vars (unchanged)
+
+| Variable                   | Used by                                        |
+| -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
+| `MOSAIC_ASSUME_YES=1`      | Skip all prompts, use defaults + env overrides |
+| `MOSAIC_ADMIN_NAME`        | Gateway bootstrap                              |
+| `MOSAIC_ADMIN_EMAIL`       | Gateway bootstrap                              |
+| `MOSAIC_ADMIN_PASSWORD`    | Gateway bootstrap                              |
+| `MOSAIC_GATEWAY_PORT`      | Gateway config                                 |
+| `MOSAIC_HOSTNAME`          | Gateway config (CORS derivation)               |
+| `MOSAIC_CORS_ORIGIN`       | Gateway config (full override)                 |
+| `MOSAIC_STORAGE_TIER`      | Gateway config (local/team)                    |
+| `MOSAIC_DATABASE_URL`      | Gateway config (team tier)                     |
+| `MOSAIC_VALKEY_URL`        | Gateway config (team tier)                     |
+| `MOSAIC_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` | Provider config                                |
+
+### New env vars
+
+| Variable              | Purpose                                   |
+| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
+| `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME`   | Override agent name in headless mode      |
+| `MOSAIC_AGENT_INTENT` | Override intent category in headless mode |
+
+### `tools/install.sh --yes`
+
+The install script sets `MOSAIC_ASSUME_YES=1` and passes through env vars.
+No changes needed to the script itself. The new wizard detects headless mode
+at the top of `runWizard` and runs a linear path identical to the old flow.
+
+## 6. Explicit non-goals
+
+- **No GUI** — this is a terminal wizard only
+- **No multi-user install** — single-user, single-machine
+- **No registry changes** — npm publish flow is unchanged
+- **No LLM calls during install** — deterministic fallback only
+- **No new dependencies** — uses existing @clack/prompts and picocolors
+- **No changes to gateway API** — only the wizard orchestration changes
+- **No changes to tools/install.sh** — headless compat maintained via env vars
+
+## 7. Implementation plan
+
+### Files to modify
+
+1. `packages/mosaic/src/types.ts` — add `MenuSection`, `AgentIntent`, `completedSections`, `agentIntent`, `providerKey`, `providerType` to WizardState
+2. `packages/mosaic/src/wizard.ts` — replace linear flow with menu loop
+3. `packages/mosaic/src/stages/mode-select.ts` — becomes the main menu
+4. `packages/mosaic/src/stages/provider-setup.ts` — new: provider key collection
+5. `packages/mosaic/src/stages/agent-intent.ts` — new: intent intake + naming
+6. `packages/mosaic/src/stages/menu-gateway.ts` — new: gateway sub-menu wrapper
+7. `packages/mosaic/src/stages/quick-start.ts` — new: quick start linear path
+8. `packages/mosaic/src/constants.ts` — add intent presets and name mappings
+9. `packages/mosaic/package.json` — version bump 0.0.26 -> 0.0.27
+
+### Files to add (tests)
+
+1. `packages/mosaic/src/stages/wizard-menu.spec.ts` — menu navigation tests
+2. `packages/mosaic/src/stages/quick-start.spec.ts` — quick start path tests
+3. `packages/mosaic/src/stages/agent-intent.spec.ts` — intent + naming tests
+4. `packages/mosaic/src/stages/provider-setup.spec.ts` — provider detection tests
+
+### Migration strategy
+
+The existing stage functions remain intact. The menu system wraps them —
+each menu item calls the appropriate stage function(s). The linear headless
+path calls them in the same order as before.

+# Hotfix Scratchpad — `install.sh` does not seed `TOOLS.md`
+
+- **Issue:** mosaicstack/stack#457
+- **Branch:** `fix/tools-md-seeding`
+- **Type:** Out-of-mission hotfix (not part of Install UX v2 mission)
+- **Started:** 2026-04-11
+- **Ships in:** `@mosaicstack/mosaic` 0.0.30
+
+## Objective
+
+Ensure `~/.config/mosaic/TOOLS.md` is created on every supported install path so the mandatory AGENTS.md load order actually resolves. The load order lists `TOOLS.md` at position 5 but the bash installer never seeds it.
+
+## Root cause
+
+`packages/mosaic/framework/install.sh:228-236` — the post-sync "Seed defaults" loop explicitly lists `AGENTS.md STANDARDS.md`:
+
+```bash
+DEFAULTS_DIR="$TARGET_DIR/defaults"
+if [[ -d "$DEFAULTS_DIR" ]]; then
+  for default_file in AGENTS.md STANDARDS.md; do    # ← missing TOOLS.md
+    if [[ -f "$DEFAULTS_DIR/$default_file" ]] && [[ ! -f "$TARGET_DIR/$default_file" ]]; then
+      cp "$DEFAULTS_DIR/$default_file" "$TARGET_DIR/$default_file"
+      ok "Seeded $default_file from defaults"
+    fi
+  done
+fi
+```
+
+`TOOLS.md` is listed in `PRESERVE_PATHS` (line 24) but never created in the first place. A fresh bootstrap install via `tools/install.sh → framework/install.sh` leaves `~/.config/mosaic/TOOLS.md` absent, and the agent load order then points at a missing file.
+
+### Secondary: TypeScript `syncFramework` is too greedy
+
+`packages/mosaic/src/config/file-adapter.ts:133-160` — `FileConfigAdapter.syncFramework` correctly seeds TOOLS.md, but it does so by iterating _every_ file in `framework/defaults/`:
+
+```ts
+for (const entry of readdirSync(defaultsDir)) {
+  const dest = join(this.mosaicHome, entry);
+  if (!existsSync(dest)) {
+    copyFileSync(join(defaultsDir, entry), dest);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+`framework/defaults/` contains:
+
+```
+AGENTS.md
+AUDIT-2026-02-17-framework-consistency.md
+README.md
+SOUL.md        ← hardcoded "Jarvis"
+STANDARDS.md
+TOOLS.md
+USER.md
+```
+
+So on a fresh install the TS wizard would silently copy the `Jarvis`-flavored `SOUL.md` + placeholder `USER.md` + internal `AUDIT-*.md` and `README.md` into the user's mosaic home before `mosaic init` ever prompts them. That's a latent identity bug as well as a root-clutter bug — the wizard's own stages are responsible for generating `SOUL.md`/`USER.md` via templates.
+
+### Tertiary: stale `TOOLS.md.template`
+
+`packages/mosaic/framework/templates/TOOLS.md.template` still references `~/.config/mosaic/rails/git/…` and `~/.config/mosaic/rails/codex/…`. The `rails/` tree was renamed to `tools/` in the v1→v2 migration (see `run_migrations` in `install.sh`, which removes the old `rails/` symlink). Any user who does run `mosaic init` ends up with a `TOOLS.md` that points to paths that no longer exist.
+
+## Scope of this fix
+
+1. **`packages/mosaic/framework/install.sh`** — extend the explicit seed list to include `TOOLS.md`.
+2. **`packages/mosaic/src/config/file-adapter.ts`** — restrict `syncFramework` defaults-seeding to an explicit whitelist (`AGENTS.md`, `STANDARDS.md`, `TOOLS.md`) so the TS wizard never accidentally seeds `SOUL.md`/`USER.md`/`README.md`/`AUDIT-*.md` into the mosaic home.
+3. **`packages/mosaic/framework/templates/TOOLS.md.template`** — replace `rails/` with `tools/` in the wrapper-path examples (minimal surgical fix; full template modernization is out of scope for a 0.0.30 hotfix).
+4. **Regression test** — unit test around `FileConfigAdapter.syncFramework` that runs against a tmpdir fixture asserting:
+   - `TOOLS.md` is seeded when absent
+   - `AGENTS.md` / `STANDARDS.md` are still seeded when absent
+   - `SOUL.md` / `USER.md` are **not** seeded from `defaults/` (the wizard stages own those)
+   - Existing root files are not clobbered.
+
+Out of scope (tracked separately / future work):
+
+- Regenerating `defaults/SOUL.md` and `defaults/USER.md` so they no longer contain Jarvis-specific content.
+- Fully modernizing `TOOLS.md.template` to match the rich canonical `defaults/TOOLS.md` reference.
+- `issue-create.sh` / `pr-create.sh` `eval` bugs (already captured to OpenBrain from the prior hotfix).
+
+## Plan / checklist
+
+- [ ] Branch `fix/tools-md-seeding` from `main` (at `b2cbf89`)
+- [ ] File Gitea issue (direct API; wrappers broken for bodies with backticks)
+- [ ] Scratchpad created (this file)
+- [ ] `install.sh` seed loop extended to `AGENTS.md STANDARDS.md TOOLS.md`
+- [ ] `file-adapter.ts` seeding restricted to explicit whitelist
+- [ ] `TOOLS.md.template` `rails/` → `tools/`
+- [ ] Regression test added (`file-adapter.test.ts`) — failing first, then green
+- [ ] `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic run typecheck` green
+- [ ] `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic run lint` green
+- [ ] `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run` — new test green, no new failures beyond the known pre-existing `uninstall.spec.ts:138`
+- [ ] Repo baselines: `pnpm typecheck` / `pnpm lint` / `pnpm format:check`
+- [ ] Independent code review (`feature-dev:code-reviewer`, sonnet tier)
+- [ ] Commit + push
+- [ ] PR opened via Gitea API
+- [ ] CI queue guard cleared (bypass local `ci-queue-wait.sh` if stale origin URL breaks it; query Gitea API directly)
+- [ ] CI green on PR
+- [ ] PR merged (squash)
+- [ ] CI green on main
+- [ ] Issue closed with link to merge commit
+- [ ] `chore/release-mosaic-0.0.30` branch bumps `packages/mosaic/package.json` 0.0.29 → 0.0.30
+- [ ] Release PR opened + merged
+- [ ] `.woodpecker/publish.yml` auto-publishes to Gitea npm registry
+- [ ] Publish verified (`npm view @mosaicstack/mosaic version` or registry check)
+
+## Risks / blockers
+
+- `ci-queue-wait.sh` wrapper may still crash on stale `origin` URL (captured in OpenBrain from prior hotfix). Workaround: query Gitea API directly for running/queued pipelines.
+- `issue-create.sh` / `pr-create.sh` `eval` bugs. Workaround: Gitea API direct call.
+- `uninstall.spec.ts:138` is a pre-existing failure on main; not this change's problem.
+- Publish flow is fire-and-forget on main push — if `publish.yml` fails, rollback means republishing a follow-up patch, not reverting the version bump.

+# Hotfix Scratchpad — `mosaic yolo <runtime>` passes runtime name as initial user message
+
+- **Issue:** mosaicstack/stack#454
+- **Branch:** `fix/yolo-runtime-initial-arg`
+- **Type:** Out-of-mission hotfix (not part of Install UX v2 mission)
+- **Started:** 2026-04-11
+
+## Objective
+
+Stop `mosaic yolo <runtime>` from passing the runtime name (`claude`, `codex`, etc.) as the initial user message to the underlying CLI. Restore the mission-auto-prompt path for yolo launches.
+
+## Root cause (confirmed)
+
+`packages/mosaic/src/commands/launch.ts:779` — the `yolo <runtime>` action handler:
+
+```ts
+.action((runtime: string, _opts: unknown, cmd: Command) => {
+  // ... validate runtime ...
+  launchRuntime(runtime as RuntimeName, cmd.args, true);
+});
+```
+
+Commander.js includes declared positional arguments in `cmd.args`. For `mosaic yolo claude`:
+
+- `runtime` (destructured) = `"claude"`
+- `cmd.args` = `["claude"]` — the same value
+
+`launchRuntime` treats `["claude"]` as excess positional args, and for the `claude` case that becomes the initial user message. As a secondary consequence, `hasMissionNoArgs` evaluates false, so the mission-auto-prompt path is bypassed too.
+
+## Live reproduction (intercepted claude binary)
+
+```
+$ PATH=/tmp/fake-claude-bin:$PATH mosaic yolo claude
+[mosaic] Launching Claude Code in YOLO mode...
+argv[1]: --dangerously-skip-permissions
+argv[2]: --append-system-prompt
+argv[3] (len=25601): # ACTIVE MISSION — HARD GATE ...
+argv[4]: claude                                       ← the bug
+```
+
+Non-yolo variant `mosaic claude` is clean:
+
+```
+argv[1]: --append-system-prompt
+argv[2]: <prompt>
+argv[3]: Active mission detected: MVP. Read the mission state files and report status.
+```
+
+## Plan
+
+1. Refactor `launch.ts`: extract `registerRuntimeLaunchers(program, handler)` with an injectable handler so commander wiring is testable without spawning subprocesses. `registerLaunchCommands` delegates to it with `launchRuntime` as the handler.
+2. Fix: in the `yolo <runtime>` action, pass `cmd.args.slice(1)` instead of `cmd.args`.
+3. Add `packages/mosaic/src/commands/launch.spec.ts`:
+   - Failing-first reproducer: parse `['node','x','yolo','claude']` and assert handler receives `extraArgs=[]` and `yolo=true`.
+   - Regression test: parse `['node','x','claude']` asserts handler receives `extraArgs=[]` and `yolo=false`.
+   - Excess args: parse `['node','x','yolo','claude','--print','hi']` asserts handler receives `extraArgs=['--print','hi']` (with `--print` kept because `allowUnknownOption` is true).
+   - Excess args non-yolo: parse `['node','x','claude','--print','hi']` asserts `extraArgs=['--print','hi']`.
+   - Reject unknown runtime under yolo.
+4. Run typecheck, lint, format:check, vitest for `@mosaicstack/mosaic`.
+5. Independent code review (feature-dev:code-reviewer subagent, sonnet tier).
+6. Commit → push → PR via wrappers → merge → CI green → close issue #454.
+7. Release decision (`mosaic-v0.0.30`) deferred to Jason after merge.
+
+## Framework compliance sub-findings (out-of-scope; to capture in OpenBrain after)
+
+- `~/.config/mosaic/tools/git/issue-create.sh` uses `eval` on `$BODY`; arbitrary bodies with backticks, `$`, or parens break catastrophically.
+- `gitea_issue_create_api` fallback uses `curl -fsS` without `-L`; after the `mosaicstack/mosaic-stack → mosaicstack/stack` rename, the API redirect is not followed and the fallback silently fails.
+- Local repo `origin` remote still points at old `mosaic/mosaic-stack.git` slug. Not touched here per git-config safety rule.
+- `~/.config/mosaic/TOOLS.md` referenced by the global load order but does not exist on disk.
+
+These will be captured to OpenBrain after the hotfix merges so they don't get lost, and filed as separate tracking items.

+## Tests run
+
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic run typecheck` → green
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic run lint` → green
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec prettier --check "src/**/*.ts"` → green
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run src/commands/launch.spec.ts` → 11/11 pass
+- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run` → 270/271 pass (1 pre-existing `uninstall.spec.ts:138` EACCES failure, confirmed on the branch before this change)
+- `pnpm typecheck` (repo) → green
+- `pnpm lint` (repo) → green
+- `pnpm format:check` (repo) → green (after prettier-writing the scratchpad)
+
+## Risks / blockers
+
+None expected. Refactor is small and the Commander API is stable. Test needs `exitOverride()` to prevent `process.exit` on invalid runtime.
+
+## Final verification evidence
+
+- PR: mosaicstack/stack#455 — state `closed`, merged.
+- Merge commit: `b2cec8c6bac29336a6cdcdb4f19806f7b5fa0054` (squash to `main`).
+- Post-merge CI (main @ b2cec8c6): `ci/woodpecker/push/ci` = success, `ci/woodpecker/push/publish` = success. (`ci/woodpecker/tag/publish` was last observed as a pre-existing failure on the prior release tag and is unrelated to this change.)
+- Issue mosaicstack/stack#454 closed with a comment linking the merge commit.
+- Launch regression suite: `launch.spec.ts` 11/11 pass on main.
+- Baselines on main after merge are inherited from the PR CI run.
+- Release decision (`mosaicstack/mosaic` 0.0.30) intentionally deferred to the user — the fix is now sitting on main awaiting a release cut.

 - Wait for at least one worker to complete before spawning more
 - This optimizes token usage and reduces context pressure
 
+## File Ownership & Partitioning (Hard Rule for Parallel Workers)
+
+When dispatching parallel workers, the orchestrator MUST assign **non-overlapping file scopes** to each worker. File collisions between parallel workers cause merge conflicts, lost edits, and wasted tokens.
+
+**Rules:**
+
+1. **Exclusive file ownership.** Each file may be assigned to at most one active worker. The orchestrator records ownership in the worker dispatch (prompt or task definition).
+2. **Partition by directory or module.** Prefer assigning entire directories/modules to one worker rather than splitting files within a directory across workers.
+3. **Shared files are serialized.** If two tasks must modify the same file (e.g., a shared types file, a barrel export), they MUST run sequentially — never in parallel. Mark the second task with `depends_on` pointing to the first.
+4. **Test files follow source ownership.** If Worker A owns `src/auth/login.ts`, Worker A also owns `src/auth/__tests__/login.test.ts`. Do not split source and test across workers.
+5. **Config files are orchestrator-reserved.** Files like `package.json`, `tsconfig.json`, and CI config are owned by the orchestrator and modified only between worker cycles, never during parallel execution.
+6. **Document ownership in dispatch.** When spawning a worker, include an explicit `Files:` section listing owned paths/globs. Example:
+
+```

 **Runtime-specific syntax**: See the runtime reference for how to specify model tier when spawning subagents (e.g., Claude Code Task tool `model` parameter).
 
+## Superpowers Enforcement (Hard Rule)
+
+Mosaic provides capabilities beyond basic code editing: **skills**, **hooks**, **MCP tools**, and **plugins**. These are not optional extras — they are force multipliers that agents MUST actively use when applicable. Under-utilization of superpowers is a framework violation.
+
+### Skills
+
+Skills are domain-specific instruction sets in `~/.config/mosaic/skills/` that encode best practices, patterns, and guardrails. They are loaded into agents via the runtime's skill mechanism (e.g., Claude Code slash commands, Pi `--skill` flag).
+
+**Rules:**
+
+1. Before starting implementation, scan available skills (`ls ~/.config/mosaic/skills/`) and load any that match the task domain.
+2. When a skill exists for the technology being used (e.g., `nestjs-best-practices` for NestJS work), you MUST load it.
+3. When spawning workers, include skill loading in the kickstart prompt.
+4. If you complete a task without loading a relevant available skill, that is a quality gap.
+
+### Hooks
+
+Hooks provide automated quality gates (lint, format, typecheck) that fire on file edits. They are configured in the runtime settings and run automatically.
+
+**Rules:**
+
+1. Do NOT bypass or suppress hook output. If a hook reports errors, fix them before proceeding.
+2. Hook failures are immediate feedback — treat them like failing tests.
+3. If a hook is consistently failing on valid code, report it as a framework issue rather than working around it.
+
+### MCP Tools
+
+MCP servers extend agent capabilities with external integrations (sequential-thinking, web search, memory, browser automation, etc.). Available MCP tools are listed at session start.
+
+**Rules:**
+
+1. **sequential-thinking** is REQUIRED for planning, architecture, and multi-step reasoning. Use it — do not skip structured thinking for complex decisions.
+2. **OpenBrain** (`capture`, `search`, `recent`) is the cross-agent memory layer. Capture discoveries and search for prior context at session start.
+3. When a task involves web research, browser testing, or external data, use the available MCP tools (web-search, chrome-devtools, web-reader) rather than asking the user to look things up.
+4. Check available MCP tools at session start and use them proactively throughout the session.
+
+### Plugins (Runtime-Specific)
+
+Runtime plugins (e.g., Claude Code's `feature-dev`, `pr-review-toolkit`, `code-review`) provide specialized agent capabilities like code review, architecture analysis, and test coverage analysis.
+
+**Rules:**
+
+1. After completing a significant code change, use code review plugins proactively — do not wait for the user to ask.
+2. Before creating a PR, use PR review plugins to catch issues early.
+3. When designing architecture, use planning/architecture plugins for structured analysis.
+
+### Self-Evolution
+
+The Mosaic framework should improve over time based on usage patterns:
+
+1. When you discover a recurring pattern that should be codified, capture it to OpenBrain with `type: "framework-improvement"`.
+2. When a hook, skill, or tool is missing for a common task, capture the gap to OpenBrain with `type: "tooling-gap"`.
+3. When a framework rule causes friction without adding value, capture the observation to OpenBrain with `type: "framework-friction"`.
+
+These captures feed the framework's continuous improvement cycle.
+
 ## Skills Policy
 
-- Use only the minimum required skills for the active task.
+- Load skills that match the active task domain before starting implementation.
 - Do not load unrelated skills.
 - Follow skill trigger rules from the active runtime instruction layer.
+- Actively check `~/.config/mosaic/skills/` for applicable skills rather than passively waiting for them to be mentioned.
