--- phase: quick-260515-uf1 plan: 01 subsystem: live-agent/psyche-context tags: [psyche-download, drop-files, destructive-consume, amend-signoff-deprecation, deploy] # Dependency graph requires: - phase: Phase 30 Plan 03 provides: append_pending_sections helper takes cwd parameter (parallel-test-safe); existing non-destructive output-only append behavior to be replaced - phase: Phase 30 Plan 04 provides: tests/file_drop_integration.rs Test 5 + Test 6 (psyche_download_appends_pending_commune / both) as canonical integration coverage for download_payload provides: - Destructive consumption of .claude/{id}-{commune|signoff}.md drop files by psyche-download (CLI path + SessionStart-injection path) - mtime-stamped section headers `## Pending {Kind} (written {iso8601})` replacing legacy `(uncommitted)` shape - Retain-on-error semantics: drop file preserved if on-disk append to {psyche_dir}/{id}.md fails - One canonical post-session-end context-update flow: drop the file, let next psyche-download absorb it affects: - amend-signoff workflow (skill removed; binary subcommand preserved) - signoff offline-listener UX (now persists until absorbed instead of error) - psyche-download CLI/injection output (one-shot pending sections instead of forever-repeating) # Tech tracking tech-stack: added: [] patterns: - "Destructive consume with write-then-delete ordering: on-disk append SUCCEEDS first, only then unlink drop file (retry-safe under transient FS errors)" - "mtime-as-header-source: drop file's modification time is the authoritative timestamp (user wrote it), not psyche-download invocation wall clock (could be hours later)" - "Race-loser short-circuit reuse: scan_drop_files (poll.rs) and append_pending_sections (context.rs) both read+remove the same files; the loser hits ErrorKind::NotFound on fs::read_to_string, which the existing `if let Ok(content)` arm silently skips — no new locking added" - "Skill deletion without binary deletion: removing the SKILL.md directory drops the slash command surface while leaving the $LIVE amend-signoff subcommand intact for backward compat" key-files: created: - .planning/quick/260515-uf1-psyche-download-consumes-drop-files/260515-uf1-PLAN.md - .planning/quick/260515-uf1-psyche-download-consumes-drop-files/260515-uf1-CONTEXT.md - .planning/quick/260515-uf1-psyche-download-consumes-drop-files/260515-uf1-SUMMARY.md modified: - src/live/context.rs — reworked append_pending_sections to do destructive write-then-delete with mtime-header; in-module tests retargeted from `(uncommitted)` literal to `(written ` prefix match with on-disk assertion - tests/file_drop_integration.rs — Test 5 + Test 6 assert drop file is DELETED post-run and {psyche_dir}/{id}.md contains the appended section - plugin/spt/skills/psyche-download/SKILL.md — added "Pending drop-file consumption" section documenting destructive-consume semantics + amend-signoff replacement note - plugin/spt/skills/signoff/SKILL.md — added "Offline path (no live listener)" paragraph documenting persist-until-absorbed semantics - plugin/spt/.claude-plugin/plugin.json — version 1.10.7 → 1.10.8 (via DEPLOY.ps1 -Bump patch) - Cargo.toml — version 1.10.7 → 1.10.8 (via DEPLOY.ps1 -Bump patch) - Cargo.lock — version 1.10.7 → 1.10.8 (deploy chore follow-up) deleted: - plugin/spt/skills/amend-signoff/ — entire skill directory removed (slash command surface gone; binary subcommand preserved) key-decisions: - "Header shape `## Pending {Kind} (written {mtime})` — mtime sourced from drop-file fs::metadata.modified() formatted as `%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%:z`; falls back to chrono::Local::now() on metadata failure so the consume never aborts (degraded but recoverable)" - "Write-then-delete ordering: on-disk OpenOptions::append succeeds → fs::remove_file(drop). If append fails, drop file retained AND owl_err logged. Idempotent at the on-disk file level if the post-write unlink itself fails (next call re-appends with possibly-different mtime; no data loss)" - "Output buffer push moved AFTER successful on-disk append (originally pre-append) so stdout reflects only what was actually persisted — prevents the user from seeing a 'Pending Commune' section in psyche-download output that the on-disk context.md never received" - "Race resolution with scan_drop_files: no new locking. Both code paths use fs::read_to_string → if Err (NotFound included), continue. The loser silently no-ops; the winner consumes. Acceptable because the only contention pattern is rare (live listener + simultaneous CLI psyche-download), and a duplicate consume would just produce two sections with adjacent mtimes — annoying but not corrupt" - "Skill deletion ≠ binary deletion for /spt:amend-signoff: deleted plugin/spt/skills/amend-signoff/ to drop the slash command surface, but src/live/context.rs::{run_amend_signoff, amend_signoff_result} + the LiveCommands::AmendSignoff CLI arm are preserved out of scope per CONTEXT.md. Backward compat for any script still invoking `$LIVE amend-signoff` directly" - "Signoff doc kept as single flow + offline-path note (NOT branched into two flows) — the Write-tool drop step is the same regardless of listener liveness; the note clarifies what happens to the file when no listener picks it up" - "Tests retargeted from byte-equal assertions on `(uncommitted)` literal to structural assertions: header-prefix `## Pending Commune (written ` + body substring + on-disk file presence + drop-file absence. mtime value itself is timing-dependent and untestable byte-for-byte; prefix match is the structural invariant" - "Deploy required -Bump patch (1.10.7 → 1.10.8) to sidestep the v1.10.7 owl.exe file-lock on prior deploy attempt — fresh cache path means no copy-item sharing violation.

On failure: log, leave file, return false-ish from the caller to keep retry pressure" - "Output-vs-persistence ordering: when a CLI emits content that should reflect on-disk state, persist FIRST then emit.

This is now the single canonical path for post-session-end context updates — `/spt:amend-signoff` skill is removed (binary preserved for back-compat). `/spt:signoff` SKILL.md teaches the offline persist-until-absorbed flow. Deployed as v1.10.8.** ## Performance - **Duration:** ~50 minutes wall (two sessions — first stopped at deploy due to owl.exe v1.10.7 file lock; resumed with `-Bump patch` to bypass) - **Completed:** 2026-05-15 - **Tasks:** 3 plan tasks + 1 deploy chore commit = 4 commits - **Files modified:** 5 source/skill files; 1 skill dir deleted; plugin.json + Cargo.toml + Cargo.lock version bumps ## Accomplishments - **Destructive consume in `append_pending_sections`** — for each kind in `[commune, signoff]`: read drop file → mtime header → on-disk append to `{psyche_dir}/{id}.md` (create-if-absent via `OpenOptions::append(true).create(true)`) → on success, unlink drop file; on failure, log via `owl_err` and retain. Output buffer push moved AFTER on-disk write to preserve emit-reflects-persistence invariant. - **Both CLI and SessionStart paths absorb drop files** — `download_payload` (CLI) and `download_payload_for_injection` (SessionStart hook) share the same inner producer; the change is captured once in `append_pending_sections` and inherited by both. - **mtime-stamped headers replace `(uncommitted)`** — section header is now `## Pending Commune (written 2026-05-15T14:23:11-07:00)` (drop-file mtime, local-zone ISO-8601). Falls back to `Local::now()` on metadata failure. - **`/spt:amend-signoff` skill deleted** — `plugin/spt/skills/amend-signoff/` directory removed. Slash command surface gone; `$LIVE amend-signoff` binary subcommand preserved for backward compat (out-of-scope per CONTEXT.md). - **Doc updates** — `/spt:psyche-download` SKILL.md adds a "Pending drop-file consumption" section explaining the destructive-consume semantics and the replacement of the deprecated `/amend-signoff` workflow. `/spt:signoff` SKILL.md adds an "Offline path (no live listener)" paragraph (single flow with note, NOT a branched two-flow). - **Race resolution with `scan_drop_files`** — confirmed `ErrorKind::NotFound` short-circuit in the existing `if let Ok(content)` arm handles both code paths losing the read+unlink race; no new locking introduced. - **Test rework** — in-module `context::tests::append_pending_sections_*` tests retargeted from byte-equal `(uncommitted)` assertions to structural assertions (header-prefix + body substring + on-disk file presence + drop-file absence). `tests/file_drop_integration.rs` Test 5 + Test 6 updated to assert drop file deletion + on-disk section presence. Full `cargo test` green. - **Deployed v1.10.8** to `~/.claude/plugins/cache/cplugs/spt/1.10.8/`; marketplace pushed to `cplugs` HEAD `5964c50`; `installed_plugins.json` pointer verified by DEPLOY.ps1 step 10. ## Task Commits Each task committed atomically. All commits independently green under `cargo build --release` and `cargo test`. 1. **Task 1: Rust impl + tests — destructive consume in `append_pending_sections`** — `4648a50` (feat) - `src/live/context.rs`: reworked helper per CONTEXT D11; write-then-delete ordering; mtime header; retain-on-error - `src/live/context.rs::tests::*`: 7 in-module tests retargeted to structural assertions + on-disk-file checks under `SptHomeGuard` - `tests/file_drop_integration.rs`: Test 5 + Test 6 assert drop file DELETED + on-disk `{psyche_dir}/{id}.md` APPENDED - Race partner `src/owl/poll.rs::scan_drop_files` unchanged — NotFound short-circuit reused - Commit message: `feat(psyche-download): destructively consume drop files into on-disk context` 2. **Task 2: Skill doc updates** — `b2749fd` (docs) - `plugin/spt/skills/amend-signoff/` — entire directory DELETED - `plugin/spt/skills/psyche-download/SKILL.md` — added "Pending drop-file consumption" section + removed amend-signoff cross-reference - `plugin/spt/skills/signoff/SKILL.md` — added "Offline path" paragraph explaining persist-until-absorbed + amend-signoff deprecation - Commit message: `docs(skills): destructive consume in psyche-download; drop amend-signoff; signoff offline path` 3. **Planning artifacts** — `ddc44bd` (docs) - `.planning/quick/260515-uf1-.../{PLAN.md, CONTEXT.md}` — task plan + design context - Commit message: `docs(quick-260515-uf1): add planning artifacts for psyche-download destructive consume` 4. **Task 3: Build + deploy (v1.10.8)** — two commits (auto-bump + Cargo.lock follow-up) - **`5be20a8` (chore)** — DEPLOY.ps1 -Bump patch atomic-committed `plugin/spt/.claude-plugin/plugin.json` + `Cargo.toml` (`1.10.7 → 1.10.8`). Commit message: `chore: bump spt plugin to v1.10.8` - **`add6bc6` (chore)** — Cargo.lock refresh (cargo rebuild updated owl crate entry to 1.10.8; DEPLOY.ps1 does not stage Cargo.lock — precedent from `c26465c` / `62cebea` follow-up commits in Phase 18.8 + 18.8.1). Commit message: `chore(deploy): rebuild + deploy psyche-download destructive consume (v1.10.8)` ## Deviations from Plan ### Deploy bump deviation (Rule 3 — blocking issue) - **Found during:** Task 3 (resume session) - **Issue:** Original deploy attempt without `-Bump` failed at Step 6 with `Copy-Item` sharing violation on `~/.claude/plugins/cache/cplugs/spt/1.10.7/owl.exe` — file locked by an in-flight `owl.exe` listener still exec'ing from the v1.10.7 cache dir. Phase 18.4/18.5 binary-handoff design tolerates this for the OLD version (it stays put until the listener self-migrates), but blocks overwriting the SAME version in place. - **Fix:** Per user decision, re-ran with `-Bump patch` (`1.10.7 → 1.10.8`). New cache path `1.10.8/` is fresh ground — no file to be locked. Binary-handoff machinery migrates live listeners transparently to the new version. - **Files modified:** `plugin/spt/.claude-plugin/plugin.json`, `Cargo.toml`, `Cargo.lock` - **Commits:** `5be20a8` (auto-bump), `add6bc6` (Cargo.lock follow-up) - **Tracked as:** legitimate Rule 3 deviation; documented up-front in the user's resume directive ### Marketplace clone divergence note - Marketplace clone `cplugs` had advanced to `b7aa946` during the prior failed deploy attempt (skills tree + binary were synced before Step 6 hit the file lock). The successful retry pushed `5964c50` on top — clean linear history, expected outcome. ### No other deviations - Rules 1-3 not triggered elsewhere; Rule 4 not triggered. - All plan acceptance criteria met as written (with the deploy deviation above being explicitly user-sanctioned during resume). ## Deploy Log - **Tool:** `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File docs/DEPLOY.ps1 -Bump patch` - **Outcome:** All 10 steps green; deploy completed clean - **Version stamp:** `1.10.7 → 1.10.8` - **Cache path:** `C:\Users\decid\.claude\plugins\cache\cplugs\spt\1.10.8\` - **Marketplace HEAD pushed:** `5964c50` (preceded by `b7aa946` from prior failed run; together they form clean linear history on cplugs `main`) - **Pointer assertion (Step 10):** `spt@cplugs version=1.10.8 installPath=...\cache\cplugs\spt\1.10.8` — verified - **Cache prune:** kept `1.10.8` + `1.10.7`; renamed `1.10.6` to `.pending-prune-1.10.6-*` (still-locked owl.exe inside, deferred to next deploy per documented carry-over policy) - **Deployed skills verified:** `amend-signoff/` ABSENT in `cache\cplugs\spt\1.10.8\skills\`. 17 skill dirs present (clear-psyche, commune, context-save, list-live, list-psyche, list-ready, listen, listen-stop, live, live-stop, new-alarm, psyche-download, reboot, revive, send, signoff, whoami). - **`claude plugin install spt@cplugs`:** ran clean (no-op as expected; cache warm-up only) ## Reload Required >>> **User must run `/reload-plugins` inside Claude Code to activate v1.10.8 + drop the `/spt:amend-signoff` slash command from the registered skill list.** <<< Per CLAUDE.md, `/reload-plugins` is user-controlled — executor stops short of running it. ## Verification Smoke Path (post-`/reload-plugins`) User-driven manual check: 1. Create `.claude/doyle-commune.md` with body `"smoke test"`. 2. Run `$LIVE psyche-download doyle`. 3. Observe stdout contains `## Pending Commune (written 2026-05-15T...)`. 4. Observe `.claude/doyle-commune.md` is GONE (destructive consume succeeded). 5. Observe `{SPT_HOME}/owlery/psyches/tracked/doyle.md` ends with the appended `## Pending Commune (written ...)` section + the smoke-test body. 6. Re-run `$LIVE psyche-download doyle` immediately — pending-section does NOT re-appear (one-shot consumption confirmed). ## Self-Check: PASSED Verified post-write: - `.planning/quick/260515-uf1-psyche-download-consumes-drop-files/260515-uf1-PLAN.md` — exists - `.planning/quick/260515-uf1-psyche-download-consumes-drop-files/260515-uf1-CONTEXT.md` — exists - `.planning/quick/260515-uf1-psyche-download-consumes-drop-files/260515-uf1-SUMMARY.md` — exists (this file) - `plugin/spt/skills/amend-signoff/` — DOES NOT exist in repo (deleted in Task 2) and DOES NOT exist in deployed cache `~/.claude/plugins/cache/cplugs/spt/1.10.8/skills/` - Commits `4648a50`, `b2749fd`, `ddc44bd`, `5be20a8`, `add6bc6` — all present in `git log` on `main` - Marketplace commit `5964c50` — pushed to `cplugs/main` - `installed_plugins.json` — points to `spt@cplugs` version `1.10.8`, installPath `...\cache\cplugs\spt\1.10.8` (verified by DEPLOY.ps1 Step 10 assertion)
