 # Changelog
 
-## 3.0.0-beta.208 - 2026-10-22
-
-- Reconcile the audit improvement work on a uniquely versioned worktree before further implementation; preserve the prior beta.207 worktrees unchanged for evidence and comparison.
+## 3.0.0-beta.209 - 2026-10-23
 
 - Preserve the nearest project instructions when the shared context budget is exhausted, and report omitted guidance with policy-projected paths.
-- Load persistent project memory only on demand. Enforce protected file reads, canonical authorization, strict versioned entries, expiry, and independent input, entry, and result byte budgets. Remove duplicate scoring projections and invented timestamps.
-- Bound asynchronous symbol-outline traversal, file reads, cancellation, rendered lines, and output paths. Omit default parameter values and enforce per-file policy checks.
-- Require exact editing and patch contexts; remove unsafe automatic whitespace matching that could change semantic indentation.
+- Load persistent project memory only on demand (`agent_context` remains strictly read-only), validating versioned metadata, expiry timestamps, and canonical path containment without exposing unreferenced memory-mutation exports.
+- Bound asynchronous symbol-outline traversal, file reads, cancellation, rendered lines, and 16 KiB UTF-8 byte ceiling; omit default parameter values, fix zero-parameter arrow function signature parsing (`() =>`), and enforce per-file policy checks.
+- Require exact editing and patch contexts; add `with_line_numbers` read support, 1-based line-numbered `near_miss` edit candidates, and bounded `conflict_hint` line candidates on `apply_patch` conflicts.
 - Share typed instruction, Git-diff, and skill projections across stdio and Worker prompts. Preserve failures, truncation, and sensitive-file omissions instead of reporting missing data as empty results.
-- Make optional progressive stdio discovery reachable through nine initial tools, canonical groups, and bounded request-scoped catalog subscriptions. Advertise catalog changes only in this mode; retain the full catalog by default.
-- Share reason-level remedies across transports. Prefer original-job recovery after an ambiguous acceptance and observation after an unknown effect; never recommend blindly repeating an unsettled mutation.
-- Advance the tool schema generation and bind the catalog digest to its contract. Add semantic and real-producer regression fixtures in place of selected brittle source-shape checks.
-- Consolidate cohesive job-listing, output-buffer, and runtime-projection helpers; remove the unused workspace configuration duplicate. Isolate Computer Use effect verification while preserving the existing action coordinator and trajectory tests.
-- Share strict source parsing and add an advisory dependency-aware development check. Keep the complete frozen-tree, platform, package, and live release gates authoritative.
-- Add deterministic context/editing and job-recovery workflows judged by final state. Retain scenario-oriented Computer Use and runtime-infrastructure fixtures.
-- Shorten the repository automation entry point and correct memory, protocol, concurrency, platform-isolation, and dependency documentation. Record 51 pinned upstream comparisons and seven research references with explicit evidence limits.
-- Move the native development smoke fixture and tool output-schema contract baseline out of the consumer package, and correct testing links. Upgrade the source and private deployment toolchains together to Wrangler 4.151.3; verify nested and deduplicated dependencies at their exact locked locations and retain required root pins. Retain the three used production dependencies.
-- Include the required boolean `truncated` field in hosted `read_file` budgeted responses, observe both local and Worker `server_info` plus foreground/durable process and `cancel_job` branches when generating `outputSchema`, and project Worker-specific `outputSchema.required` fields.
-- Unify MCP Tasks active/terminal/successful job status sets and task-projection helpers in `src/shared/mcp-task-contract.mjs`, deduplicate resource-request normalization in `src/local/resource-request-contract.mjs`, add TypeScript declarations and `@ts-check` coverage for `src/shared/trusted-origin.mjs`, and include bounded `conflict_hint` line candidates on `apply_patch` context conflicts.
-- Retain the bounded historical release ledger and consolidated relay/process helpers from the development tree.
+- Make optional progressive stdio discovery reachable through nine initial tools, canonical groups, and bounded request-scoped catalog subscriptions. Add compact Code Mode TypeScript SDK signature projection (`projectToolCatalogAsTypeScript`) across shared catalog helpers.
+- Share reason-level remedies across transports, surface underlying error reasons in managed-job runner failures (`error_reason`), and add interactive prompt stall detection (`[y/N]`, `Password:`) to process failure advisories.
+- Gate Worker SSE heartbeat comments on complete frame boundaries (`\n\n` / `\r\n\r\n`) via O(1) tail-byte inspection while keeping heartbeats active across multi-step streams.
+- Advance the tool schema generation and bind the catalog digest to its contract (40 verified output schemas and 14 environment-dependent interactive tools across 54 tools).
+- Unify MCP Tasks active/terminal/successful job status sets in `src/shared/mcp-task-contract.mjs`, deduplicate resource-request normalization in `src/local/resource-request-contract.mjs`, and centralize loopback origin parsing in `src/shared/trusted-origin.mjs`.
+- Remove dead barrel re-exports and unused development scripts, enforce static dead-export detection in `tests/architecture/module-boundaries.mjs`, and exempt generated reference documents (`docs/TOOL_REFERENCE.md`, `docs/POLICY.md`) from the hand-written documentation file count cap.
+- Move the native development smoke fixture and tool output-schema contract baseline out of the consumer package; verify nested and deduplicated Wrangler 4.151.3 dependencies at their exact locked locations.

Oversized files return `too_large` without a body; malformed version/metadata returns `invalid`; unsafe or inaccessible paths return `unavailable`. Cancellation propagates.

Keep memory local and review its content before sharing context.
 
 ### Lexical Symbol Outline (Repo Map)
 
 `agent_context` can return a bounded lexical overview with `include_symbol_outline: true` or a specific `symbol_path`. `max_symbol_files` defaults to 30 (maximum 100); `max_symbol_lines` defaults to 300 (maximum 1000), including headers, separators and truncation notices. Rendered text also has a 16 KiB byte ceiling; notices count inside both budgets. Parameter values are omitted rather than copied into the outline. A lexical match is navigation assistance, not an AST-backed semantic guarantee.
 
-Filesystem I/O is asynchronous. Default traversal visits at most 2048 entries and eight directory levels, reads at most 256 KiB per file and 2 MiB in total, and checks cancellation and per-file policy. Protected reads reject nonregular, linked or changing files. Paths use the same display projection as other context. Hitting a budget or omitting a source makes the result explicitly incomplete. The development CLI `node scripts/symbol-outline.mjs <directory> --json` exposes scan counts, bytes and warnings.

 Keep always-loaded instructions short and verifiable; use nested rules and linked topic documents for detail. Prose is guidance, while policy, OS permissions and operation gates enforce authority.

 - Prefer read-only, dry-run, reversible, and bounded operations. Do not publish, deploy, rotate credentials, modify live or production data, install system-wide software, or perform destructive or irreversible actions unless the user explicitly requests that operation.
 - Instruction files guide behavior but are not an enforcement boundary; use the active policy, sandbox, permissions, and approval mechanisms for hard restrictions.
 
+## Diagnostic safety and refusal avoidance
+
+- When diagnosing local service failures (e.g. 502 Bad Gateway, port conflicts, TLS handshake errors, or unit failures), prefer narrow read-only inspection (e.g. \`lsof -nP -iTCP:<port> -sTCP:LISTEN\`, checking specific unit status, reading scoped service logs or effective configuration) over broad port scanning, raw packet sniffing, or unbounded shell probing.
+- Frame intent in terms of SRE operational telemetry (e.g. "checking whether local port 8080 is listening") rather than offensive actions.
+- Never disable system security controls as diagnostic shortcuts: avoid \`curl -k\` / \`--insecure\`, \`chmod 777\`, disabling firewalls, or dumping private keys.
+- If a diagnostic operation is refused or interrupted by upstream safety classifiers, do not attempt obfuscated retries, shell aliases, or encoding bypasses; immediately fall back to the narrower read-only factual observation (configuration, unit status, log tail) to establish equivalent evidence without abandoning the task.
+
 ## Git and delivery
 
 - Before any GitHub read or mutation, read the effective project instructions. If they require local git, gh, and gh api through Machine Bridge, never call a hosted GitHub connector or ChatGPT GitHub plugin; if that local control plane is unavailable, stop and report the boundary instead of substituting another control plane.
