The four existing skills cover the product; nothing covered how work is reported. Two rules this project has paid for — check the artifact rather than the report, and do not state a claim more firmly than the evidence allows — lived only in the operator's head and in chat, where Claude Code never read them. - felhom-evidence five confidence tiers, artifact-over-report - felhom-diagnosis no hypothesis until a command has been seen red - felhom-plain-language ASD-STE100, two options, the re-pitch - felhom-handoff the note goes to a FILE, not the conversation - felhom-doc-authoring the pointer decides whether material is reached scripts/check_skills.py asserts what decides whether a skill is EVER reached: frontmatter parses, name == directory, description and body non-empty, under 150 lines, installed copy still samefile()s into the repo. install_skills.py globs and never reads the file, so a missing description installs perfectly and then silently never loads. It convicted on its first run: felhom-build-deploy is 179 lines. NOT trimmed here (pre-existing skills are out of scope, and trimming a deploy skill without exercising its commands is how a wrong command reaches a live host) — a named single-entry GRANDFATHERED exception, WARNed every run, R-394. A new skill over the limit is convicted. Red-proof run and seen failing: description removed from felhom-evidence -> exit 1, "frontmatter field 'description' is missing or empty". Restored, tree clean. skills/SOURCES.md records both MIT upstreams, that these are adaptations not copies, and the six pieces deliberately EXCLUDED with reasons. Register: R-392 (no architecture doc covers the two-AI workflow), R-393 (decision-log skill deferred, with the reason), R-394.
documentation/backlog/
OPEN-ITEMS.md is the register of open work and the file to read first — it holds only what is
open, one row per item, every row with a state and an owner. ROADMAP.md is the full history and
reasoning behind the R-n IDs, including shipped and killed items; an ID is minted there, and a new
instance of an existing item attaches to that ID rather than getting its own.
The rest of this folder: verified-LIVE findings with implementable fix plans that are not yet
implemented. Preserved here
(instead of on git branches) per the trunk-based, no-branches rule — the fix itself is implemented later
directly on main, during a normal/supervised session.
-
FIX-M18-NOTES.md — dump re-validation runs every 5 min (perf). FIXED in controller v0.62.0 @
f8afe5c(2026-06-14). (was on the deletedfelhom-controllerbranchfix/m18-dump-validation-cache.) -
FIX-M19-NOTES.md —
deriveStackNamemisattribution edge (low-incidence correctness). FIXED in controller v0.62.0 @6bab68b(2026-06-14). (was on the deleted branchfix/m19-stackname-crossref.) -
FOLLOWUP-golden-default-controller-tag.md — the golden bakes a stale controller (
:0.43.0when queued; had rotted again to:0.85.1by resolution). FIXED in felhom-agent @ceca355(2026-07-03):build-golden.shv2.0.0 makes the controller tag a MANDATORY argument (a required arg cannot rot) and golden 0.98.3 was baked + clean-room-validated (bake → first-boot-current → self-manage → app deploy, on the drill VM — no supervised touch of live guests needed) + published + vouched. Evidence:../audits/DRILL-golden-098-2026-07-03.md.
Related: the live-drive fixspec (../audits/live-drive-fixspec-2026-06-14.md) carries the deferred
supervised items F9 (HDD provisioning/guest-attach), F20-BUG2 (durable_id scheme), F20-BUG3 (async
mkfs) — to be implemented in the agent/golden supervised session.
