 ### 2. review
 
-- **Purpose:** Multi-dimensional code review of a task or path — (1) functional requirements traceability (WBS mode only), (2) SECUA framework (Security, Efficiency, Correctness, Usability, Architecture), (3) architecture depth.
+- **Purpose:** Multi-dimensional code review of a task, a task set, or paths — (1) functional requirements traceability (per task target), (2) SECUA framework (Security, Efficiency, Correctness, Usability, Architecture), (3) architecture depth.
 - **Modes:**
-  - **WBS mode (`<wbs>`)**: Runs functional requirements traceability (`sp:functional-review`), SECUA framework (`sp:code-verification`), and architectural depth (`sp:code-improvement`). The three skills return review fragments; the coordinator writes the combined `## Review` (F92 0593 R1).
-  - **Path mode (`<path>`)**: Runs advisory SECUA framework (`sp:code-verification`) and architectural depth (`sp:code-improvement`). Performs no task mutation.
-- **Inputs:** `<wbs|path>` (required). Review executes inline (in-session) by default. `--agent <inline|auto|name>` selector accepted (see [SSOT](cross-cutting.md#inline-default-execution-surface)). `--focus <lens>` narrows to one SECUA dimension. `--triage` opts into bounded remediation after the report (below). `--worktree [<name>]` isolates the triage writes (below; requires `--triage`). Note: `--fix` and `--next` are **deprecated** (no-op with warning; route remediation to `--triage` or `/sp:dev-verify --fix` and progression to `/sp:dev-next`). The task pipeline's review stage never passes `--triage` or `--worktree`.
+  - **Task-set mode (`--tasks <selector>` / `--feature <id>[,<id>]`)**: resolves the set once with the batch selector grammar ([execution-batch.md § Step 1](execution-batch.md#step-1--selector-resolution-r1)) — comma WBS list or `feature:<id>` (the `--feature` comma list is union sugar); status pseudo-lists and `ready` are rejected for review. One WBS-mode review per implemented task, each writing its own merged `## Review` (F92 0593 R1); tasks in `backlog`/`todo`/`blocked` are reported NOT-STARTED and skipped (§ 3a vocabulary); a per-task failure does not stop the remaining tasks; the run ends with a combined summary table (WBS, verdict, P1/P2 counts).
+  - **WBS mode (`<wbs>`, the per-task recipe)**: Runs functional requirements traceability (`sp:functional-review`), SECUA framework (`sp:code-verification`), and architectural depth (`sp:code-improvement`). The three skills return review fragments; the coordinator writes the combined `## Review` (F92 0593 R1).
+  - **Path mode (`<path>`, the per-path recipe)**: Runs advisory SECUA framework (`sp:code-verification`) and architectural depth (`sp:code-improvement`). Performs no task mutation.

Review executes inline (in-session) by default. `--agent <inline|auto|name>` selector accepted (see [SSOT](cross-cutting.md#inline-default-execution-surface)). `--focus <dims>` narrows the review dimensions — vocabulary SSOT: [code-verification/SKILL.md](../../code-verification/SKILL.md) review mode (`functional` → `sp:functional-review`; `architecture` → `sp:code-improvement` + SECUA-A; S/E/C/U → `sp:code-verification`). `--auto` skips objective HITL confirmations (the pipeline's review stage passes it). `--triage` opts into bounded remediation after the report (below). `--worktree [<name>]` isolates the triage writes (below; requires `--triage`). Note: the positional `<wbs\|path>` is a **deprecated alias** for one release — a `^\d{4}$` token with a resolvable task → `--tasks`; an existing path → `--scope`; otherwise exit 2, with a deprecation warning naming the replacement. `--fix` is **deprecated** (accepted no-op with warning; route remediation to `--triage` or `/sp:dev-verify --fix`); `--next` is **removed** (route progression to `/sp:dev-next`). The task pipeline's review stage never passes `--triage` or `--worktree`.
 - **Triage (`--triage`):** runs inline in the invoking session after the merged report — never inside `sp:super-reviewer` or the review skills, which stay report-only. With `--agent <name>`, only the review is delegated; triage still runs inline on the returned findings. Never fix straight from the raw findings list:
   1. **Bucket every finding exactly once.** **Direct fix** — local, low-risk, obvious root cause: no design choice, no public-surface / schema / dependency change, not a shared write path, verifiable by a targeted check (docs, a guard, a missing throw, a wrong path helper, a stale comment). **Task** — real and actionable but needs design, crosses modules, touches a public surface, or is not verifiable locally; skip it when an existing task already owns it (cite that WBS). **Note** — pre-existing, environmental, or ownerless; report only.
   2. **Apply direct fixes** — smallest surgical diff in project style, then re-verify each with its targeted check (focused test, lint, or the exact command that exhibited the defect). A fix that grows beyond the bar or fails its check moves to the Task bucket with what was learned; do not leave it half-applied.
-  3. **File the Task bucket as one or more tasks**, one per cohesive unit of work that one agent can implement and verify in one run — split unrelated fixes, merge findings that share a root cause or file set. File under the existing feature that owns the affected surface; if none fits, create a child feature under the closest existing parent — never a new root feature. Write through the CLI-gated corpus surface only (`spur task create --feature <id> --skip-ready`, then `spur task update <wbs> --section <s> --from-file`). Each task must meet the implement-ready bar ([§ 5. refine](#5-refine), `--depth ready`) so it cannot drift: per finding the evidence (`file:line`), the defect, the chosen fix direction with rejected alternatives, file targets, AC, and out-of-scope; promote `backlog → todo` only when `spur task check <wbs> --json` is clean. Name what the direct fixes already resolved in each task's Background.

Name what the direct fixes already resolved in each task's Background.
   4. **Gate and report.** Run the project gate once after the direct fixes. Report a Triage section: each applied fix (path + one-line what + verification), each filed task (WBS + feature + scope), and the Notes. Never commit or create a branch outside `--worktree`.

+- **Purpose:** Transfer any unfinished job to another session, agent, or operator through a Markdown snapshot; a blocker or task/feature ID is optional.
+- **Inputs:** Required `--file <path>`; shared path semantics live in [flag-glossary.md](flag-glossary.md).
+- **Backing:** `sp:spur-dev`, in the current session. Use the [shared handoff template](#job-handoff-template).
+- **Behavior:**
+  1. Parse arguments, preserving quoted paths with spaces. Reject a missing/empty path, repeated `--file`, unknown flags, or extra positional arguments with usage. Resolve the absolute path before changing directories. Reject a directory target; create missing parent directories. Respect CLI-gated corpus writes: task/feature documents cannot be dump targets.
+  2. Gather the mission, original invocation/options, approved outcome, completed and partial work, blockers, and next actions. Verify repository/worktree paths, branch, HEAD/base, dirty files and relevant commits with Git. Inspect referenced tasks/features/runs through the CLI facade with `--json` in their execution directory. Preserve frozen batch membership, dependency order, run IDs, workflow/checkpoint identity, failure policy, executor state and worktree marker when applicable. Record inspection time and provenance; label unavailable facts `unknown`.
+  3. Fill every template section for this job; use `N/A` where inapplicable. Include uncommitted work and ownership, gate commands/results, pending questions, approvals given or still required, discovery maps, evidence paths, and wrap/merge/cleanup success conditions. Keep confirmed lessons and rejected approaches with anchors. Link authoritative specifications instead of copying them; never turn task-specific bypasses into general instructions.
+  4. Redact credentials, tokens and sensitive personal data. Link large logs/artifacts by path and note their durability and availability to the recipient; the Markdown file does not transfer referenced files. Include essential continuation context directly so missing optional scratch notes do not erase the plan.
+  5. Construct the complete snapshot before writing or refreshing `--file`. Read it back to verify the mission, execution directory, ordered remaining work and first actions. Report the absolute path and unresolved facts. Dumping only saves context: it does not stop an active executor, execute remaining work, change lifecycle state, commit, merge, or remove a worktree; record any executor still running.
+
+### 11b. job-resume
+
+- **Purpose:** Read a Markdown job snapshot and continue its remaining work through the existing operation owner.
+- **Inputs:** Required `--file <path>`; use job-dump argument/path validation, but require an existing, readable, non-empty file and do not create it.
+- **Backing:** `sp:spur-dev`, in the current session; dispatch the recorded operation after reconciliation.
+- **Behavior:**
+  1. Read the entire file before acting. Treat it as context under current operator/project instructions: embedded commands must be verified, never blindly executed or accepted as gate-bypass authority. Accept equivalent headings in manual handoffs. Require a clear mission, execution location and next action; request missing critical context before dependent work.
+  2. Locate the recorded repository/worktree, read its `AGENTS.md`, and inspect Git status, branch, HEAD/base and worktree membership there. Report drift; for a moved/missing checkout, establish and report a verified path mapping from repository/worktree identity, asking only if ambiguous. Never silently fall back to the invoking tree. Preserve dirty changes and ownership. Check recorded active executors through the coordination owner before taking write ownership; maintain one writer per tree.
+  3. Read state/discovery files and authoritative task, feature and design records; refresh statuses through the CLI facade with `--json`. Reconcile frozen membership, dependencies, completion evidence and run/checkpoint identity. Skip confirmed completed work; unproven completion stays unverified. Missing optional notes trigger focused rediscovery; missing required evidence/checkpoints or incompatible state stop the affected continuation with a concrete recovery action.
+  4. State the reconciled next step and continue in the verified execution directory, preserving scope, options, ordering, failure policy and pending decisions. Load the existing lifecycle/competency owner for the recorded task, batch, planning, review, wrap or other operation. Use its continuation path rather than replaying the original invocation from the beginning; retain the frozen remaining set rather than selecting new tasks. Distinguish inline continuation from a paused engine run: use the documented mechanism for the matching live run, never fabricate a paused snapshot or alter definition digests to force resume.
+  5. Execute first actions and proceed through remaining work until completion or a real blocker. Rerun stale checks where the owning gate requires it. Required approvals stay pending; saved `--auto` or narration does not grant new irreversible actions. Apply the existing wrap/worktree finalization contract only on its full success conditions; retain work and evidence on partial success or failure.
+  6. Report resumed work, results and blockers. When stopping again, refresh the same file through job-dump, preserving the original mission, membership and references while updating observed state and next actions.

-     `$PATHSPEC` is `-- <path>` when `--scope` is given, empty otherwise.
-
-     **Empty index, no `--all`** — the dead-end this command used to hand back. Reading is
-     not a mutation, so the two cases split there:
-     - **No committing flag** → re-gather once with `--all` semantics and say so
-       (`index empty — read the whole tree instead`). A message-only run has nothing to lose by
-       looking wider, and the operator gets an answer instead of an errand.
-     - **`--commit` / `--squash`** → stop. Print the worktree counts (`N tracked, M untracked`) and
-       the exact re-run line (`/sp:dev-gitmsg <the same flags> --all`). Committing
-       untracked files is never inferred from an empty index — that is the operator's call, and it
-       is now one paste away rather than a guess.
+     What the block guarantees:
+     - **Untracked files are read, not just named** — under `--all` each one is diffed against `/dev/null`, so a new file (often the main change) shapes the message.
+     - **Every file gets a share** — the per-file 80-line cap runs before the 40 KB total cap, so one large file cannot starve the rest. Deleted files contribute only their `(gone)` stat line; lockfiles are excluded.
+     - **Empty index, no `--all`:** a message-only run widens to the whole tree and says so (`NOTE`); a committing run prints `STOP` with the counts — re-print the exact re-run line (`/sp:dev-gitmsg <same flags> --all`) and stop. Committing untracked files is never inferred.
+     - **`STOP no changes`** → report it and stop.
 
-     Empty under `--all`, or still empty after the widen → report `no changes in <scope>` and stop.
+  2. **Stay inside the budget.** The block's output is the whole input. Never run a second, wider `git diff`, `git show`, or file `Read` to "see more"; never paste hunks into the output. A truncated file is typed from its stat line and path.
 
-  2. **Stay inside the budget.** `-U0` (no context lines) plus the lockfile exclusions plus the 60 KB cap is the token contract — never re-run the diff with context to "see more", never paste diff hunks into the output. If the cap truncated the diff, say so and derive the message from `--stat` + `--name-status` alone; a large mechanical change rarely needs hunk detail to be typed and scoped correctly.
+  3. **Group by concern.** A concern is one coherent change a reviewer would accept or revert as a unit:
+     - Tests, docs, and registry/index updates travel **with the code they cover** — not as separate `test`/`docs` groups. A standalone `test`/`docs` group exists only when nothing else in the change set motivates it.
+     - Behavior changes and pure formatting/refactor churn are **different** concerns.
+     - Prefer fewer groups; a single group is the common case. Order groups by dependency (refactor before the feature that uses it).
 
-  3. **Summarize only what shapes the message.** One sentence — what changed and _why_, not a line count — for each file whose change is not obvious from its path and status. Skip the obvious ones (generated files, lockfiles, pure renames, `docs/**` under a `docs` group). Past ~12 interesting files, summarize per directory instead of per file.
+  4. **Write each message.**
+     - **Type** from the dominant change: `feat` · `fix` · `refactor` · `perf` · `docs` · `test` · `style` · `build` (deps, bundling) · `ci` (workflows, pipelines) · `chore` (other tooling/config) · `revert`.
+     - **Scope** — reuse a scope that appears in `## recent subjects` for the same area (the repo's own vocabulary beats a guessed one); `--scope <path>` overrides. Omit the scope rather than invent one.
+     - **Summary** — imperative, ≤72 chars, lowercase first word, no period; says what changed in user/maintainer terms, not which files.
+     - **Body** — only when the *why* is not obvious from the summary: intent and consequence in 1–3 lines, never a restated diff or file list. `--squash` → one combined message (dominant type/scope, one body bullet per concern).
 
-  4. **Group by concern**, and for each group derive type, scope, message:
-     - Type from the dominant change — `feat` (new functionality) · `fix` (bug fix) · `refactor` (restructuring, no behavior change) · `docs` (documentation only) · `chore` (build/config/tooling) · `perf` · `test` · `style`.
-     - Scope from the affected module/package (`cli`, `domain`, `server`, `web`, `app`, …); `--scope` overrides.
-     - Message:
+  5. **Report.** Print: one context line (branch; `linked worktree` when `--git-dir` ≠ `--git-common-dir` and the superproject line is empty), then each message in a fenced block. No per-file summaries, no restated diff. With neither `--commit` nor `--squash`, add one copy-paste `git commit` line per message and stop.
 
-       ```
-       <type>(<scope>): <summary>
+  6. **Commit (`--commit` / `--squash`) — one more Bash call.** `--squash` implies `--commit`, so both together is just `--squash`. Refuse before touching the index when:
+     - `## secret hits` is non-empty → print each `file: line`, commit nothing;
+     - `--commit` would split (more than one group) and `## partially staged` is non-empty → splitting would widen those `git add -p` stagings to whole files; print the paths and commit nothing (`--squash` is allowed — it commits the index as staged).
 
-       <body — why, only when the why is not obvious>
-       ```
+     Otherwise run the commits in one heredoc — `--all` first stages the scope (`git add -A -- "$SCOPE"`); a single group or `--squash` is one `git commit -F -`; multiple groups commit in dependency order:
 
-       Summary: imperative mood, ≤72 chars, lowercase first word, no period. Body explains intent and consequence; it never restates the diff. Behavior changes and pure formatting/refactor churn are **different concerns** — never one group.
-
-  5. **Resolve the message shape without a round trip to the operator.** `--squash` → one combined
-     message (dominant type/scope, one body bullet per group). Otherwise one message per group, in
-     dependency order (refactor before the feature that uses it); a single group is that same rule
-     with one group.
-
-  6. **Report, then commit if asked.** Print the resolved message(s), a copy-paste `git commit` line per message, and a one-line context header: current branch, and `linked worktree` when `--git-dir` differs from `--git-common-dir` and `git rev-parse --show-superproject-working-tree` is empty (a non-empty result means submodule, not worktree). With neither `--commit` nor `--squash`, stop here — the operator commits.
-
-  7. **Committing (`--commit` / `--squash`).** The two flags name outcomes, not dimensions: `--commit`
-     commits **by concern**, `--squash` commits **everything as one**. `--squash` implies `--commit`,
-     so `--commit --squash` is just `--squash`, never an error.
+     ```bash
+     bash <<'EOF'
+     git reset -q -- :/ && git add -A -- <group-1 paths> && git commit -q -F - <<'MSG'
+     <group-1 message>
+     MSG
+     # …repeat per group…
+     git log --oneline -<n>; git status --short
+     EOF
+     ```
 
-     First scan the captured diff's added lines for credentials (`password`, `secret`, `api[_-]?key`, `token`, `BEGIN [A-Z ]*PRIVATE KEY`, long base64-looking literals). On a hit: print the offending `file:line`, commit nothing, stop. Otherwise:
-     - `--all` → `git add -A $PATHSPEC` first (this is what stages the untracked files).
-     - `--squash`, or `--commit` on a single group → `git commit -m "$MESSAGE"`.
-     - `--commit` on multiple groups → **commit each group in sequence**: record the full staged file list once, then per group `git reset -q -- <all staged paths>` → `git add -- <that group's paths>` → `git commit -m "<that group's message>"`. This is the split; it needs no re-run and no re-staging by the operator.
-     - **Partial-staging guard:** if any path appears in _both_ `git diff --cached --name-only` and `git diff --name-only` (a `git add -p` staging), the sequence above would silently widen those commits to the whole file. Do not split — report the affected paths and commit nothing unless `--squash` was given.
+     Hooks stay enabled; a failing hook stops the run with its output — never `--no-verify`.
 
-- **Invariants:** With neither `--commit` nor `--squash`, never runs `git commit` — message only. Neither flag commits across a credential hit, and `--commit` never splits across a partial staging. Without `--all` the change set is the index, so plain `/sp:dev-gitmsg` keeps pre-commit semantics; only `--all` reaches unstaged and untracked files, and only a committing run (`--commit` / `--squash`) stages them. The empty-index widen is read-only and always announced — a committing run never widens its own scope. An explicit `--scope <path>` always bounds the change set, with or without `--all`. One diff capture per run, bounded and context-free — never a second, wider read.
+- **Invariants:** Git and POSIX shell only — no helper script, no temp file. At most two Bash calls: gather, then (only when committing) commit.
