+   The ledger is **optional and backward-compatible**: on a project where `gsd_run windows status` returns `open_count: 0` (no `.planning/WINDOWS.md` yet, or an empty ledger), the gate passes silently. The gate only blocks when at least one entry is `open`.

+> **Runtime-aware dispatch (#2508 Phase 4).** GSD workflows dispatch specialized subagents by role. Before dispatching on a built-in-only runtime (kimi-code — three built-ins only), resolve the role to a built-in via `gsd_run query resolve-dispatch-type --requested <role> --raw`. On named-dispatch runtimes (Claude/OpenCode/…) the role is returned unchanged; on kimi-code it maps to `coder`/`explore`/`plan` by role-suffix. The persona rides `${AGENT_SKILLS_<ROLE>}` (Phase 3) regardless. See @gsd-core/references/runtime-aware-dispatch.md.
+
+  **#2684 model resolution.** `init.phase-op` emits no model field, and `ref.agent` is only known at runtime, so resolve it per hook before dispatching.
+
+  **Input validation (defense-in-depth) — do this IN-CONTEXT, before any shell use.** `ref.agent` originates in a capability manifest, which may be third-party. Check the value you read from `activeHooks` against `^[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]*$` yourself, the same way you read `activeHooks` itself — **never** by pasting it into a shell command to be tested there. A value carrying a quote, `;`, `` ` ``, `$(`, or a newline would terminate the assignment and run as its own statement *before* any shell-side check could execute, so a shell-side check is no protection at all.
+
+  A value that fails the check is a malformed manifest: record a warning, **skip that hook entirely**, and move to the next `activeHooks` entry. Do not dispatch it and do not place it in a command line.
+
+  Only once the value has passed, resolve its model — substituting the validated value for `<agent>`:
+
+  ```bash
+  HOOK_AGENT_MODEL=$(gsd_run query resolve-model "<agent>" --raw 2>/dev/null || true)
+  ```
+
+  **#2517: omit the `model=` parameter entirely when `HOOK_AGENT_MODEL` is `inherit` or empty** — a capability may name an agent absent from the model-profile table, which resolves to the empty string, and passing an empty model 404s on non-Claude runtimes. Omitting inherits the orchestrator's model.
+
+  With a resolved model (`{HOOK_AGENT_MODEL}` is the value the command above printed; `${…}` are bound shell variables):
+
+  `Agent(subagent_type=ref.agent, prompt="Ship-time capability hook for phase ${PHASE_NUMBER}. Phase dir: ${PHASE_DIR}. Consume: ${consumed_files}. Follow your agent instructions.", model="{HOOK_AGENT_MODEL}")`
+
+  When it resolved to `inherit` or empty, drop the parameter:
+
+  `Agent(subagent_type=ref.agent, prompt="Ship-time capability hook for phase ${PHASE_NUMBER}. Phase dir: ${PHASE_DIR}. Consume: ${consumed_files}. Follow your agent instructions.")`
 - If `ref.skill` is set, dispatch with `Skill(skill="gsd-${ref.skill}", args="${PHASE_NUMBER} --auto ${GSD_WS}")` (prepend `gsd-` to `ref.skill`).
 
 Each dispatch is best-effort: if it errors, record a warning and continue — never re-raise (`onError: skip`).

 This is a *menu* front door, not a second router. For in-project forward motion (planning → executing → verify-pending) the recommended action is `/gsd:progress --next`, which delegates to the single gated advancement engine (`workflows/next.md`: Route 0 resume-incomplete-phase + Gates 1-3). smart-entry adds value only where `--next` cannot reach: pre-project, remediation (paused/blocked/verify-failed), and lifecycle exits (idle-stranded/complete). See `docs/adr/1787-gsd-next-smart-entry.md`.
