-# CLAUDE.md — Python Reference Implementation
+# CLAUDE.md
 
-**This file guides work on `src/` and `tests/` — the Python reference harness for claw-code protocol.**
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
 
-The production CLI lives in `rust/`; this directory (`src/`, `tests/`, `.py` files) is a **protocol validation and dogfood surface**.
+## Detected stack
+- Languages: Rust.
+- Frameworks: none detected from the supported starter markers.
 
-## What this Python harness does
-
-**Machine-first orchestration layer** — proves that the claw-code JSON protocol is:
-- Deterministic and recoverable (every output is reproducible)
-- Self-describing (SCHEMAS.md documents every field)
-- Clawable (external agents can build ONE error handler for all commands)
-
-## Stack
-- **Language:** Python 3.13+
-- **Dependencies:** minimal (no frameworks; pure stdlibs + attrs/dataclasses)
-- **Test runner:** pytest
-- **Protocol contract:** SCHEMAS.md (machine-readable JSON envelope)
-
-## Quick start
-
-```bash
-# 1. Install dependencies (if not already in venv)
-python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
-# (dependencies minimal; standard library mostly)
-
-# 2. Run tests
-python3 -m pytest tests/ -q
-
-# 3. Try a command
-python3 -m src.main bootstrap "hello" --output-format json | python3 -m json.tool
-```
-
-## Verification workflow
-
-```bash
-# Unit tests (fast)
-python3 -m pytest tests/ -q 2>&1 | tail -3
-
-# Type checking (optional but recommended)
-python3 -m mypy src/ --ignore-missing-imports 2>&1 | tail -5
-```
+## Verification
+- Run Rust verification from repo root: `scripts/fmt.sh --check`; for formatting use `scripts/fmt.sh`. Run Rust clippy/tests from `rust/`: `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings`, `cargo test --workspace`
+- `src/` and `tests/` are both present; update both surfaces together when behavior changes.
 
 ## Repository shape
+- `rust/` contains the Rust workspace and active CLI/runtime implementation.
+- `src/` contains source files that should stay consistent with generated guidance and tests.
+- `tests/` contains validation surfaces that should be reviewed alongside code changes.

-
-## Key concepts
-
-### Clawable surface (14 commands)
-
-Every clawable command **must**:
-1. Accept `--output-format {text,json}`
-2. Return JSON envelopes matching SCHEMAS.md
-3. Use common fields (timestamp, command, exit_code, output_format, schema_version)
-4. Exit 0 on success, 1 on error/not-found, 2 on timeout
-
-**Commands:** list-sessions, delete-session, load-session, flush-transcript, show-command, show-tool, exec-command, exec-tool, route, bootstrap, command-graph, tool-pool, bootstrap-graph, turn-loop
-
-**Validation:** `test_cli_parity_audit.py` auto-tests all 14 for --output-format acceptance.
-
-### OPT_OUT surfaces (12 commands)
-
-Explicitly exempt from --output-format requirement (for now):
-- Rich-Markdown reports: summary, manifest, parity-audit, setup-report
-- List commands with query filters: subsystems, commands, tools
-- Simulation/debug: remote-mode, ssh-mode, teleport-mode, direct-connect-mode, deep-link-mode
-
-**Future work:** audit OPT_OUT surfaces for JSON promotion (post-#164).
-
-### Protocol layers
-
-**Coverage (#167–#170):** All clawable commands emit JSON
-**Enforcement (#171):** Parity CI prevents new commands skipping JSON
-**Documentation (#172):** SCHEMAS.md locks field contract
-**Alignment (#173):** Test framework validates docs ↔ code match
-**Field evolution (#164 Stage B):** cancel_observed proves protocol extensibility
-
-## Testing & coverage
-
-### Run full suite
-```bash
-python3 -m pytest tests/ -q
-```
-
-### Run one test file
-```bash
-python3 -m pytest tests/test_cancel_observed_field.py -v
-```
-
-### Run one test
-```bash
-python3 -m pytest tests/test_cancel_observed_field.py::TestCancelObservedField::test_default_value_is_false -v
-```
-
-### Check coverage (optional)
-```bash
-python3 -m pip install coverage  # if not already installed
-python3 -m coverage run -m pytest tests/
-python3 -m coverage report --skip-covered
-```
-
-Target: >90% line coverage for src/ (currently ~85%).
-
-## Common workflows
-
-### Add a new clawable command
-
-1. Add parser in `main.py` (argparse)
-2. Add `--output-format` flag
-3. Emit JSON envelope using `wrap_json_envelope(data, command_name)`
-4. Add command to CLAWABLE_SURFACES in test_cli_parity_audit.py
-5. Document in SCHEMAS.md (schema + example)
-6. Write test in tests/test_*_cli.py or tests/test_json_envelope_field_consistency.py
-7. Run full suite to confirm parity
-
-### Modify TurnResult or protocol fields
-
-1. Update dataclass in `query_engine.py`
-2. Update SCHEMAS.md with new field + rationale
-3. Write test in `tests/test_json_envelope_field_consistency.py` that validates field presence
-4. Update all places that construct TurnResult (grep for `TurnResult(`)
-5. Update bootstrap/turn-loop JSON builders in main.py
-6. Run `tests/` to ensure no regressions
-
-### Promote an OPT_OUT surface to CLAWABLE
-
-**Prerequisite:** Real demand signal logged in `OPT_OUT_DEMAND_LOG.md` (threshold: 2+ independent signals per surface). Speculative promotions are not allowed.
-
-Once demand is evidenced:
-1. Add --output-format flag to argparse
-2. Emit wrap_json_envelope() output in JSON path
-3. Move command from OPT_OUT_SURFACES to CLAWABLE_SURFACES
-4. Document in SCHEMAS.md
-5. Write test for JSON output
-6. Run parity audit to confirm no regressions
-7. Update `OPT_OUT_DEMAND_LOG.md` to mark signal as resolved
-
-### File a demand signal (when a claw actually needs JSON from an OPT_OUT surface)
-
-1. Open `OPT_OUT_DEMAND_LOG.md`
-2. Find the surface's entry under Group A/B/C
-3. Append a dated entry with Source, Use Case, and Markdown-alternative-checked explanation
-4. If this is the 2nd signal for the same surface, file a promotion pinpoint in ROADMAP.md
-
-## Dogfood principles
-
-The Python harness is continuously dogfood-tested:
-- Every cycle ships to `main` with detailed commit messages
-- New tests are written before/alongside implementation
-- Test suite must pass before pushing (zero-regression principle)
-- Commits grouped by pinpoint (#159, #160, ..., #174)
-- Failure modes classified per exit code: 0=success, 1=error, 2=timeout
-
-## Protocol governance
-
-- **SCHEMAS.md is the source of truth** — any implementation must match field-for-field
-- **Tests enforce the contract** — drift is caught by test suite
-- **Field additions are forward-compatible** — new fields get defaults, old clients ignore them
-- **Exit codes are signals** — claws use them for conditional logic (0→continue, 1→escalate, 2→timeout)
-- **Timestamps are audit trails** — every envelope includes ISO 8601 UTC time for chronological ordering
-

+## Working agreement
+- Prefer small, reviewable changes and keep generated bootstrap files aligned with actual repo workflows.
+- Keep shared defaults in `.claude.json`; reserve `.claude/settings.local.json` for machine-local overrides.
+- Do not overwrite existing `CLAUDE.md` content automatically; update it intentionally when repo workflows change.

-# Error Handling for Claw Code Claws
-
-**Purpose:** Build a unified error handler for orchestration code using claw-code as a library or subprocess.
-
-After cycles #178–#179 (parser-front-door hole closure), claw-code's error interface is deterministic, machine-readable, and clawable: **one error handler for all 14 clawable commands.**
-
----
-
-## Quick Reference: Exit Codes and Envelopes
-
-Every clawable command returns JSON on stdout when `--output-format json` is requested.
-
-**IMPORTANT:** The exit code contract below applies **only when `--output-format json` is explicitly set**. Text mode follows argparse conventions and may return different exit codes (e.g., `2` for argparse parse errors). Claws consuming claw-code as a subprocess MUST always pass `--output-format json` to get the documented contract.
-
-| Exit Code | Meaning | Response Format | Example |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| **0** | Success | `{success fields}` | `{"session_id": "...", "loaded": true}` |
-| **1** | Error / Not Found | `{error: {kind, message, ...}}` | `{"error": {"kind": "session_not_found", ...}}` |
-| **2** | Timeout | `{final_stop_reason: "timeout", final_cancel_observed: ...}` | `{"final_stop_reason": "timeout", ...}` |
-
-### Text mode vs JSON mode exit codes
-
-| Scenario | Text mode exit | JSON mode exit | Why |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| Unknown subcommand | 2 (argparse default) | 1 (parse error envelope) | argparse defaults to 2; JSON mode normalizes to contract |
-| Missing required arg | 2 (argparse default) | 1 (parse error envelope) | Same reason |
-| Session not found | 1 | 1 | Application-level error, same in both |
-| Command executed OK | 0 | 0 | Success path, identical |
-| Turn-loop timeout | 2 | 2 | Identical (#161 implementation) |
-
-**Practical rule for claws:** always pass `--output-format json`. This eliminates text-mode surprises and gives you the documented exit-code contract for every error path.

-## Practical Recovery Patterns
-
-### Pattern 1: Retry on transient errors
-
-```python
-from time import sleep
-
-def run_with_retry(
-    command: list[str],
-    max_attempts: int = 3,
-    backoff_seconds: float = 0.5,
-) -> dict:
-    """Retry on transient errors (filesystem, timeout)."""
-    for attempt in range(1, max_attempts + 1):
-        try:
-            return run_claw_command(command)
-        except ClawError as err:
-            if not err.retryable:
-                raise  # Non-transient; fail fast
-            
-            if attempt == max_attempts:
-                raise  # Last attempt; propagate
-            
-            print(f"Attempt {attempt} failed ({err.kind}); retrying in {backoff_seconds}s...", file=sys.stderr)
-            sleep(backoff_seconds)
-            backoff_seconds *= 1.5  # exponential backoff
-    
-    raise RuntimeError("Unreachable")
-```
-
-### Pattern 2: Reuse session after timeout (if safe)
-
-```python
-def run_with_timeout_recovery(
-    command: list[str],
-    timeout_seconds: float = 30.0,
-    fallback_timeout: float = 60.0,
-) -> dict:
-    """
-    On timeout, check cancel_observed. If True, the session is safe for retry.
-    If False, the session is potentially wedged; use a fresh one.
-    """
-    try:
-        return run_claw_command(command, timeout_seconds=timeout_seconds)
-    except ClawError as err:
-        if err.kind != 'timeout':
-            raise
-        
-        if err.safe_to_reuse_session:
-            # Engine saw the cancel signal; safe to reuse this session with a larger timeout
-            print(f"Timeout observed (cancel_observed=true); retrying with {fallback_timeout}s...", file=sys.stderr)
-            return run_claw_command(command, timeout_seconds=fallback_timeout)
-        else:
-            # Engine didn't see the cancel signal; session may be wedged
-            print(f"Timeout not observed (cancel_observed=false); session is potentially wedged", file=sys.stderr)
-            raise  # Caller should allocate a fresh session
-```
-
-### Pattern 3: Detect parse errors (typos in command-line construction)
-
-```python
-def validate_command_before_dispatch(command: list[str]) -> None:
-    """
-    Dry-run with --help to detect obvious syntax errors before dispatching work.
-    
-    This is cheap (no API call) and catches typos like:
-    - Unknown subcommand: `claw typo-command`
-    - Unknown flag: `claw bootstrap --invalid-flag`
-    - Missing required argument: `claw load-session` (no session_id)
-    """
-    help_cmd = command + ['--help']
-    try:
-        result = subprocess.run(help_cmd, capture_output=True, timeout=2.0)
-        if result.returncode != 0:
-            print(f"Warning: {' '.join(help_cmd)} returned {result.returncode}", file=sys.stderr)
-            print("(This doesn't prove the command is invalid, just that --help failed)", file=sys.stderr)
-    except subprocess.TimeoutExpired:
-        pass  # --help shouldn't hang, but don't block on it
-```
-
-### Pattern 4: Log and forward errors to observability
-
-```python
-import logging
-
-logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
-
-def run_claw_with_logging(command: list[str]) -> dict:
-    """Run command and log errors for observability."""
-    try:
-        result = run_claw_command(command)
-        logger.info(f"Claw command succeeded: {' '.join(command)}")
-        return result
-    except ClawError as err:
-        logger.error(
-            "Claw command failed",
-            extra={
-                'command': ' '.join(command),
-                'error_kind': err.kind,
-                'error_message': err.message,
-                'retryable': err.retryable,
-                'cancel_observed': err.cancel_observed,
-            },
-        )
-        raise
-```

-## Error Kinds (Enumeration)
-
-After cycles #178–#179, the complete set of `error.kind` values is:
-
-| Kind | Exit Code | Meaning | Retryable | Notes |
-|---|---|---|---|---|
-| **parse** | 1 | Argparse error (unknown command, missing arg, invalid flag) | No | Real error message included (#179); valid choices list for discoverability |
-| **session_not_found** | 1 | load-session target doesn't exist | No | session_id and directory included in envelope |
-| **filesystem** | 1 | Directory missing, permission denied, disk full | Yes | Transient issues (disk space, NFS flake) can be retried |
-| **runtime** | 1 | Engine error (unexpected exception, malformed input) | Depends | `error.retryable` field in envelope specifies |
-| **timeout** | 2 | Engine timeout with cooperative cancellation | Yes* | `cancel_observed` field signals session safety (#164) |
-
-*Retry safety depends on `cancel_observed`:
-- `cancel_observed=true` → session is safe to reuse
-- `cancel_observed=false` → session may be wedged; allocate fresh one

-## What We Did to Make This Work
-
-### Cycle #178: Parse-Error Envelope
-
-**Problem:** `claw nonexistent --output-format json` returned argparse help text on stderr instead of an envelope.
-**Solution:** Catch argparse `SystemExit` in JSON mode and emit a structured error envelope.
-**Benefit:** Claws no longer need to parse human help text to understand parse errors.
-
-### Cycle #179: Stderr Hygiene + Real Error Message
-
-**Problem:** Even after #178, argparse usage was leaking to stderr AND the envelope message was generic ("invalid command or argument").
-**Solution:** Monkey-patch `parser.error()` in JSON mode to raise an internal exception, preserving argparse's real message verbatim. Suppress stderr entirely in JSON mode.
-**Benefit:** Claws see one stream (stdout), one envelope, and real error context (e.g., "invalid choice: typo (choose from ...)") for discoverability.
-
-### Contract: #164 Stage B (`cancel_observed` field)
-
-**Problem:** Timeout results didn't signal whether the engine actually observed the cancellation request.
-**Solution:** Add `cancel_observed: bool` field to timeout TurnResult; signal true iff the engine had a fair chance to observe the cancel event.
-**Benefit:** Claws can decide "retry with fresh session" vs "reuse this session with larger timeout" based on a single boolean.

-## Common Mistakes to Avoid
-
-❌ **Don't parse exit code alone**  
-```python
-# BAD: Exit code 1 could mean parse error, not-found, filesystem, or runtime
-if result.returncode == 1:
-    # What should I do? Unclear.
-    pass
-```
-
-✅ **Do parse error.kind**  
-```python
-# GOOD: error.kind tells you exactly how to recover
-match envelope['error']['kind']:
-    case 'parse': ...
-    case 'session_not_found': ...
-    case 'filesystem': ...
-```
-
----
-
-❌ **Don't capture both stdout and stderr and assume they're separate concerns**  
-```python
-# BAD (pre-#179): Capture stdout + stderr, then parse stdout as JSON
-# But stderr might contain argparse noise that you have to string-match
-result = subprocess.run(..., capture_output=True, text=True)
-if "invalid choice" in result.stderr:
-    # ... custom error handling
-```
-
-✅ **Do silence stderr in JSON mode**  
-```python
-# GOOD (post-#179): In JSON mode, stderr is guaranteed silent
-# Envelope on stdout is your single source of truth
-result = subprocess.run(..., capture_output=True, text=True)
-envelope = json.loads(result.stdout)  # Always valid in JSON mode
-```
-
----
-
-❌ **Don't retry on parse errors**  
-```python
-# BAD: Typos don't fix themselves
-error_kind = envelope['error']['kind']
-if error_kind == 'parse':
-    retry()  # Will fail again
-```
-
-✅ **Do check retryable before retrying**  
-```python
-# GOOD: Let the error tell you
-error = envelope['error']
-if error.get('retryable', False):
-    retry()
-else:
-    raise
-```
-
----
-
-❌ **Don't reuse a session after timeout without checking cancel_observed**  
-```python
-# BAD: Reuse session = potential wedge
-result = run_claw_command(...)  # times out
-# ... later, reuse same session
-result = run_claw_command(...)  # might be stuck in the previous turn
-```
-
-✅ **Do allocate a fresh session if cancel_observed=false**  
-```python
-# GOOD: Allocate fresh session if wedge is suspected
-try:
-    result = run_claw_command(...)
-except ClawError as err:
-    if err.cancel_observed:
-        # Safe to reuse
-        result = run_claw_command(...)
-    else:
-        # Allocate fresh session
-        fresh_session = create_session()
-        result = run_claw_command_in_session(fresh_session, ...)
-```
-
----
-
-## Testing Your Error Handler
-
-```python
-def test_error_handler_parse_error():
-    """Verify parse errors are caught and classified."""
-    try:
-        run_claw_command(['claw', 'nonexistent', '--output-format', 'json'])
-        assert False, "Should have raised ClawError"
-    except ClawError as err:
-        assert err.kind == 'parse'
-        assert 'invalid choice' in err.message.lower()
-        assert err.retryable is False
-
-def test_error_handler_timeout_safe():
-    """Verify timeout with cancel_observed=true marks session as safe."""
-    # Requires a live claw-code server; mock this test

-        run_claw_command(['claw', 'load-session', 'nonexistent', '--output-format', 'json'])
-        assert False, "Should have raised ClawError"

-        assert err.kind == 'session_not_found'
-        assert err.retryable is False

-## Appendix: SCHEMAS.md Error Shape
-
-For reference, the canonical JSON error envelope shape (SCHEMAS.md):
-
-```json
-{
-  "timestamp": "2026-04-22T11:40:00Z",
-  "command": "load-session",
-  "exit_code": 1,
-  "output_format": "json",
-  "schema_version": "1.0",
-  "error": {
-    "kind": "session_not_found",
-    "operation": "session_store.load_session",
-    "target": "nonexistent",
-    "retryable": false,
-    "message": "session 'nonexistent' not found in .port_sessions",
-    "hint": "use 'list-sessions' to see available sessions"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-All commands that emit errors follow this shape (with error.kind varying). See `SCHEMAS.md` for the complete contract.
-
----
-
-## Summary
-
-After cycles #178–#179, **one error handler works for all 14 clawable commands.** No more string-matching, no more stderr parsing, no more exit-code ambiguity. Just parse the JSON, check `error.kind`, and decide: retry, escalate, or reuse session (if safe).
-
-The handler itself is ~80 lines of Python; the patterns are reusable across any language that can speak JSON.

-# OPT_OUT Surface Audit Roadmap
-
-**Status:** Pre-audit (decision table ready, survey pending)
-
-This document governs the audit and potential promotion of 12 OPT_OUT surfaces (commands that currently do **not** support `--output-format json`).
-
-## OPT_OUT Classification Rationale
-
-A surface is classified as OPT_OUT when:
-1. **Human-first by nature:** Rich Markdown prose / diagrams / structured text where JSON would be information loss
-2. **Query-filtered alternative exists:** Commands with internal `--query` / `--limit` don't need JSON (users already have escape hatch)
-3. **Simulation/debug only:** Not meant for production orchestration (e.g., mode simulators)
-4. **Future JSON work is planned:** Documented in ROADMAP with clear upgrade path
-
----
-
-## OPT_OUT Surfaces (12 Total)
-
-### Group A: Rich-Markdown Reports (4 commands)
-
-**Rationale:** These emit structured narrative prose. JSON would require lossy serialization.
-
-| Command | Output | Current use | JSON case |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `summary` | Multi-section workspace summary (Markdown) | Human readability | Not applicable; Markdown is the output |
-| `manifest` | Workspace manifest with project tree (Markdown) | Human readability | Not applicable; Markdown is the output |
-| `parity-audit` | TypeScript/Python port comparison report (Markdown) | Human readability | Not applicable; Markdown is the output |
-| `setup-report` | Preflight + startup diagnostics (Markdown) | Human readability | Not applicable; Markdown is the output |
-
-**Audit decision:** These likely remain OPT_OUT long-term (Markdown-as-output is intentional). If JSON version needed in future, would be a separate `--output-format json` path generating structured data (project summary object, manifest array, audit deltas, setup checklist) — but that's a **new contract**, not an addition to existing Markdown surfaces.
-
-**Pinpoint:** #175 (deferred) — audit whether `summary`/`manifest` should emit JSON structured versions *in parallel* with Markdown, or if Markdown-only is the right UX.
-
----
-
-### Group B: List Commands with Query Filters (3 commands)
-
-**Rationale:** These already support `--query` and `--limit` for filtering. JSON output would be redundant; users can pipe to `jq`.
-
-| Command | Filtering | Current output | JSON case |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `subsystems` | `--limit` | Human-readable list | Use `--query` to filter, users can parse if needed |
-| `commands` | `--query`, `--limit`, `--no-plugin-commands`, `--no-skill-commands` | Human-readable list | Use `--query` to filter, users can parse if needed |
-| `tools` | `--query`, `--limit`, `--simple-mode` | Human-readable list | Use `--query` to filter, users can parse if needed |
-
-**Audit decision:** `--query` / `--limit` are already the machine-friendly escape hatch. These commands are **intentionally** list-filter-based (not orchestration-primary). Promoting to CLAWABLE would require:
-1. Formalizing what the structured output *is* (command array? tool array?)
-2. Versioning the schema per command
-3. Updating tests to validate per-command schemas
-
-**Cost-benefit:** Low. Users who need structured data can already use `--query` to narrow results, then parse. Effort to promote > value.
-
-**Pinpoint:** #176 (backlog) — audit `--query` UX; consider if a `--query-json` escape hatch (output JSON of matching items) is worth the schema tax.
-
----
-
-### Group C: Simulation / Debug Surfaces (5 commands)
-
-**Rationale:** These are intentionally **not production-orchestrated**. They simulate behavior, test modes, or debug scenarios. JSON output doesn't add value.
-
-| Command | Purpose | Output | Use case |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `remote-mode` | Simulate remote execution | Text (mock session) | Testing harness behavior under remote constraints |
-| `ssh-mode` | Simulate SSH execution | Text (mock SSH session) | Testing harness behavior over SSH-like transport |
-| `teleport-mode` | Simulate teleport hop | Text (mock hop session) | Testing harness behavior with teleport bouncing |
-| `direct-connect-mode` | Simulate direct network | Text (mock session) | Testing harness behavior with direct connectivity |
-| `deep-link-mode` | Simulate deep-link invocation | Text (mock deep-link) | Testing harness behavior from URL/deeplink |
-
-**Audit decision:** These are **intentionally simulation-only**. Promoting to CLAWABLE means:
-1. "This simulated mode is now a valid orchestration surface"
-2. Need to define what JSON output *means* (mock session state? simulation log?)
-3. Need versioning + test coverage
-
-**Cost-benefit:** Very low. These are debugging tools, not orchestration endpoints. Effort to promote >> value.
-
-**Pinpoint:** #177 (backlog) — decide if mode simulators should ever be CLAWABLE (probably no).
-
----
-
-## Audit Workflow (Future Cycles)
-
-### For each surface:
-1. **Survey:** Check if any external claw actually uses --output-format with this surface
-2. **Cost estimate:** How much schema work + testing?
-3. **Value estimate:** How much demand for JSON version?
-4. **Decision:** CLAWABLE, remain OPT_OUT, or new pinpoint?
-
-### Promotion criteria (if promoting to CLAWABLE):
-
-A surface moves from OPT_OUT → CLAWABLE **only if**:
-- ✅ Clear use case for JSON (not just "hypothetically could be JSON")
-- ✅ Schema is simple and stable (not 20+ fields)
-- ✅ At least one external claw has requested it
-- ✅ Tests can be added without major refactor
-- ✅ Maintainability burden is worth the value
-
-### Demote criteria (if staying OPT_OUT):
-
-A surface stays OPT_OUT **if**:
-- ✅ JSON would be information loss (Markdown reports)
-- ✅ Equivalent filtering already exists (`--query` / `--limit`)
-- ✅ Use case is simulation/debug, not production
-- ✅ Promotion effort > value to users
-
----
-
-## Post-Audit Outcomes
-
-### Likely scenario (high confidence)
-
-**Group A (Markdown reports):** Remain OPT_OUT
-- `summary`, `manifest`, `parity-audit`, `setup-report` are **intentionally** human-first
-- If JSON-like structure is needed in future, would be separate `*-json` commands or distinct `--output-format`, not added to Markdown surfaces
-
-**Group B (List filters):** Remain OPT_OUT
-- `subsystems`, `commands`, `tools` have `--query` / `--limit` as query layer
-- Users who need structured data already have escape hatch
-
-**Group C (Mode simulators):** Remain OPT_OUT
-- `remote-mode`, `ssh-mode`, etc. are debug tools, not orchestration endpoints
-- No demand for JSON version; promotion would be forced, not driven
-
-**Result:** OPT_OUT audit concludes that 12/12 surfaces should **remain OPT_OUT** (no promotions).
-
-### If demand emerges
-
-If external claws report needing JSON from any OPT_OUT surface:
-1. File pinpoint with use case + rationale
-2. Estimate cost + value
-3. If value > cost, promote to CLAWABLE with full test coverage
-4. Update SCHEMAS.md
-5. Update CLAUDE.md
-

-# OPT_OUT Demand Log
-
-**Purpose:** Record real demand signals for promoting OPT_OUT surfaces to CLAWABLE. Without this log, the audit criteria in `OPT_OUT_AUDIT.md` have no evidentiary base.
-
-**Status:** Active survey window (post-#178/#179, cycles #21+)
-
-## How to file a demand signal
-
-When any external claw, operator, or downstream consumer actually needs JSON output from one of the 12 OPT_OUT surfaces, add an entry below. **Speculation, "could be useful someday," and internal hypotheticals do NOT count.**
-
-A valid signal requires:
-- **Source:** Who/what asked (human, automation, agent session, external tool)
-- **Surface:** Which OPT_OUT command (from the 12)
-- **Use case:** The concrete orchestration problem they're trying to solve
-- **Would-parse-Markdown alternative checked?** Why the existing OPT_OUT output is insufficient
-- **Date:** When the signal was received
-
-## Promotion thresholds
-
-Per `OPT_OUT_AUDIT.md` criteria:
-- **2+ independent signals** for the same surface within a survey window → file promotion pinpoint
-- **1 signal + existing stable schema** → file pinpoint for discussion
-- **0 signals** → surface stays OPT_OUT (documented rationale in audit file)
-
-The threshold is intentionally high. Single-use hacks can be served via one-off Markdown parsing; schema promotion is expensive (docs, tests, maintenance).

-## Survey Window Status
-
-| Cycle | Date | New Signals | Running Total | Action |
-|---|---|---|---|---|
-| #21 | 2026-04-22 | 0 | 0 | Survey opened; log established |
-
-**Current assessment:** Zero demand for any OPT_OUT surface promotion. This is consistent with `OPT_OUT_AUDIT.md` prediction that all 12 likely stay OPT_OUT long-term.
-
----
-
-## Signal Entry Template
-
-```
-### <surface-name>
-**Signal received: [N]**
-
-Entry N (YYYY-MM-DD):
-- Source: <who/what>
-- Use case: <concrete orchestration problem>
-- Markdown-alternative-checked: <yes/no + why insufficient>
-- Follow-up: <filed pinpoint / discussion thread / closed>
-```
-
----
-
-## Decision Framework
-
-At cycle #22 (or whenever survey window closes):
-
-### If 0 signals total (likely):
-- Move all 12 surfaces to `PERMANENTLY_OPT_OUT` or similar
-- Remove `OPT_OUT_SURFACES` from `test_cli_parity_audit.py` (everything is explicitly non-goal)
-- Update `CLAUDE.md` to reflect maintainership mode
-- Close `OPT_OUT_AUDIT.md` with "audit complete, no promotions"
-
-### If 1–2 signals on isolated surfaces:
-- File individual promotion pinpoints per surface with demand evidence
-- Each goes through standard #171/#172/#173 loop (parity audit, SCHEMAS.md, consistency test)
-
-### If high demand (3+ signals):
-- Reopen audit: is the OPT_OUT classification actually correct?
-- Review whether protocol expansion is warranted
-

-
----
-
-## Philosophy
-
-**Prevent speculative expansion.** The discipline of requiring real signals before promotion protects the protocol from schema bloat. Every new CLAWABLE surface adds:
-- A SCHEMAS.md section (maintenance burden)
-- Test coverage (test suite tax)
-- Documentation (cognitive load for new developers)
-- Version compatibility (schema_version bump risk)
-
-If a claw can't articulate *why* it needs JSON for `summary` beyond "it would be nice," then JSON for `summary` is not needed. The Markdown output is a feature, not a gap.
-
-The audit log closes the loop on "governed non-goals": OPT_OUT surfaces are intentionally not clawable until proven otherwise by evidence.

-## Versioning & Compatibility
-
-- **schema_version = "1.0":** Current as of 2026-04-22. Covers all 13 clawable commands.
-- **Breaking changes** (e.g. renaming a field) bump schema_version to "2.0".
-- **Additive changes** (e.g. new optional field) stay at "1.0" and are backward compatible.
-- Downstream claws **must** check `schema_version` before relying on field presence.
-
----
-
-## Regression Testing
-
-Each command is covered by:
-1. **Fixture file** (golden JSON snapshot under `tests/fixtures/json/<command>.json`)
-2. **Parametrised test** in `test_cli_parity_audit.py::TestJsonOutputContractEndToEnd`
-3. **Field consistency test** (new, tracked as ROADMAP #172)
-
-To update a fixture after a intentional schema change:
-```bash
-claw <command> --output-format json <args> > tests/fixtures/json/<command>.json
-# Review the diff, commit
-git add tests/fixtures/json/<command>.json
-```
-
-To verify no regressions:
-```bash
-cargo test --release test_json_envelope_field_consistency
-```
-
----
-
-## Design Notes
-
-**Why common fields on every response?**
-- Downstream claws can build one error handler that works for all commands
-- Timestamp + command + exit_code give context without scraping argv or timestamps from command output
-- `schema_version` signals compatibility for future upgrades
-
-**Why both "found" and "error" on not-found?**
-- Exit code 1 covers both "entity missing" and "operation failed"
-- `found=false` distinguishes not-found from error without string matching
-- `error.kind` and `error.retryable` let automation decide: retry a temporary miss vs escalate a permanent refusal
-
-**Why "operation" and "target" in error?**
-- Claws can aggregate failures by operation type (e.g. "how many `write` ops failed?")
-- Claws can implement per-target retry policy (e.g. "skip missing files, retry networking")
-- Pure text errors ("No such file") do not provide enough structure for pattern matching
-
-**Why "handled" vs "found"?**
-- `show-command` reports `found: bool` (inventory signal: "does this exist?")
-- `exec-command` reports `handled: bool` (operational signal: "was this work performed?")
-- The names matter: a command can be found but not handled (e.g. too large for context window), or handled silently (no output message)

 ### JSON output for scripting
 
-All clawable commands support `--output-format json` for machine-readable output. Every invocation returns a consistent JSON envelope with `exit_code`, `command`, `timestamp`, and either `{success fields}` or `{error: {kind, message, ...}}`.
-
 ```bash
 cd rust
 ./target/debug/claw --output-format json prompt "status"
-./target/debug/claw --output-format json load-session my-session-id
-./target/debug/claw --output-format json turn-loop "analyze logs" --max-turns 1
 ```
 
-**Building a dispatcher or orchestration script?** See [`ERROR_HANDLING.md`](./ERROR_HANDLING.md) for the unified error-handling pattern. One code example works for all 14 clawable commands: parse the exit code, classify by `error.kind`, apply recovery strategies (retry, timeout recovery, validation, logging). Use that pattern instead of reimplementing error handling per command.
-
 ### Inspect worker state
 
 The `claw state` command reads `.claw/worker-state.json`, which is written by the interactive REPL or a one-shot prompt when a worker executes a task. This file contains the worker ID, session reference, model, and permission mode.

-        #164 Stage A: cooperative cancellation via cancel_event.
-
-        The cancel_event argument (added for #164) lets a caller request early
-        termination at a safe point. When set before the pre-mutation commit
-        stage, submit_message returns early with ``stop_reason='cancelled'``
-        and the engine's state (mutable_messages, transcript_store,
-        permission_denials, total_usage) is left **exactly as it was on
-        entry**. This closes the #161 follow-up gap: before this change, a
-        wedged provider thread could finish executing and silently mutate
-        state after the caller had already observed ``stop_reason='timeout'``,
-        giving the session a ghost turn the caller never acknowledged.
-
-        Contract:
-          - cancel_event is None (default) — legacy behaviour, no checks.
-          - cancel_event set **before** budget check — returns 'cancelled'
-            immediately; no output synthesis, no projection, no mutation.
-          - cancel_event set **between** budget check and commit — returns
-            'cancelled' with state intact.
-          - cancel_event set **after** commit — not observable; the turn is
-            already committed and the caller sees 'completed'. Cancellation
-            is a *safe point* mechanism, not preemption. This is the honest
-            limit of cooperative cancellation in Python threading land.
-
-        Stop reason taxonomy after #164 Stage A:
-          - 'completed'            — turn committed, state mutated exactly once

-          - 'max_turns_reached'    — capacity exceeded, state unchanged
-          - 'cancelled'            — cancel_event observed, state unchanged
-          - 'timeout'              — synthesised by runtime, not engine (#161)
-
-        Callers that care about deadline-driven cancellation (run_turn_loop)
-        can now request cleanup by setting the event on timeout — the next
-        submit_message on the same engine will observe it at the start and

-"""Cross-surface CLI parity audit (ROADMAP #171).
-
-Prevents future drift of the unified JSON envelope contract across
-claw-code's CLI surface. Instead of requiring humans to notice when
-a new command skips --output-format, this test introspects the parser
-at runtime and verifies every command in the declared clawable-surface
-list supports --output-format {text,json}.
-
-When a new clawable-surface command is added:
-  1. Implement --output-format on the subparser (normal feature work).
-  2. Add the command name to CLAWABLE_SURFACES below.
-  3. This test passes automatically.
-
-When a developer adds a new clawable-surface command but forgets
---output-format, the test fails with a concrete message pointing at
-the missing flag. Claws no longer need to eyeball parity; the contract
-is enforced at test time.
-
-Three classes of commands:
-  - CLAWABLE_SURFACES: MUST accept --output-format (inspect/lifecycle/exec/diagnostic)
-  - OPT_OUT_SURFACES: explicitly exempt (simulation/mode commands, human-first diagnostic)
-  - Any command in parser not listed in either: test FAILS with classification request
-
-This is operationalised parity — a machine-first CLI enforced by a
-machine-first test.
