+- **Code Health Gate** — objective, configurable measurement of code
+  convolution at three levels, replacing pure judgment with measurable
+  thresholds (references/06e-code-health.md):
+  - **function** — cyclomatic complexity (20), cognitive complexity (15),
+    lines per function (50), nesting depth (4), parameters (3) via eslint
+    (`--rule` flags, not the project's own config);
+  - **module** — lines per file (300) via eslint, duplication (5% / min 5
+    lines / 50 tokens) via jscpd, circular imports (any cycle = fail) via
+    madge;
+  - **architecture** — optional dependency-cruiser rules (off by default).
+- **`/asf health`** — runs the gate and prints a `metric | value | threshold |
+  status` table with a verdict; exit 1 when the gate fails. Flags: `--diff`
+  (regression trend vs the committed baseline), `--update-baseline`, `--json`.
+- **Gate 8 in `/asf verify`** — large work runs the code health gate after the
+  M1 traceability matrix; block mode fails the gate, warn mode reports only.
+- **`.asf-code-health.json`** — optional project config, merged over defaults
+  (defaults ← project ← CLI). On/off at every level: master `enabled`,
+  per-level, per-metric. `gate.mode` block|warn, `gate.scope` large|all|off,
+  `missingTool` warn|fail, `toolTimeoutSeconds` (default 120s, Rule 15).
+- **Committed baseline** — `.asf-code-health-baseline.json` is committed so the
+  trend survives across machines/CI; `--diff` flags any regression.
+- **Test suites** — `test/test-code-health.mjs` (73 checks: pure modules,
+  pipeline triggers + non-triggers with fake tools, real-exec timeout,
+  real-eslint integration) and `test/test-code-health-ext.mjs` (12 checks
+  through the real `/asf health` + `/asf verify` command handlers with a real
+  eslint).

+## Code Health Gate
+
+`/asf health` measures convolution **objectively** at three levels — function
+(complexity, cognitive complexity, lines, depth, params), module (file lines,
+duplication, circular imports) and architecture (optional dependency rules) —
+and fails the gate when a threshold is crossed. It is **on by default** with
+conservative thresholds; configure via `.asf-code-health.json` at the project
+root (every level/metric can be disabled independently). For large work it is
+**Gate 8** in `/asf verify`. See `skills/aia-asf/references/06e-code-health.md`.
+
+```json
+{
+  "enabled": true,
+  "gate": { "mode": "block", "scope": "large" },
+  "missingTool": "warn",
+  "function": { "complexity": { "max": 20 }, "maxDepth": { "max": 4 } },
+  "module": { "duplication": { "thresholdPercent": 5 } }
+}
+```
+
+Flags: `--diff` (compare vs committed `.asf-code-health-baseline.json`),
+`--update-baseline`, `--json`. Tools are invoked via `npx --no-install` — they
+must be project devDependencies (eslint, eslint-plugin-sonarjs, jscpd, madge,
+dependency-cruiser); the gate never installs anything.

+# 06e — Code Health Gate
+
+**Status: mandatory for large work (gate blocks), advisory for small work.**
+
+The Code Health Gate is the objective counterpart to the judgment-based rules
+in [06c-code-quality.md](06c-code-quality.md). Where 06c tells you *what* good
+code looks like, 06e *measures* it and fails the gate when the measurement
+crosses a threshold. It exists because judgment alone does not catch gradual
+convolution: a function that grows 5 lines per cycle never triggers a review
+until it is unreadable.
+
+## 1. What it measures
+
+Three levels, each with objective thresholds (all configurable):
+
+| Level | Metric | Tool | Default threshold |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| function | cyclomatic complexity | eslint `complexity` | 20 |
+| function | cognitive complexity | eslint `cognitive-complexity` (sonarjs) | 15 |
+| function | lines per function | eslint `max-lines-per-function` | 50 |
+| function | nesting depth | eslint `max-depth` | 4 |
+| function | parameters | eslint `max-params` | 3 |
+| module | lines per file | eslint `max-lines` | 300 |
+| module | duplication | jscpd | 5% (min 5 lines / 50 tokens) |
+| module | circular imports | madge `--circular` | any cycle = fail |
+| architecture | dependency rules | dependency-cruiser | opt-in (off by default) |
+
+Metrics for languages the project does not use are silently skipped. Metrics
+whose tool is not installed are skipped (or fail the gate when
+`missingTool: "fail"`).
+
+## 2. Invocation
+
+```
+/asf health                # run the gate, print the report
+/asf health --diff         # compare against the committed baseline
+/asf health --update-baseline   # commit current values as the new baseline
+/asf health --json         # machine-readable output
+```
+
+`/asf verify` (large work) runs the gate as **Gate 8** after the M1
+traceability matrix. Small work shows the report but never blocks.
+
+## 3. Configuration
+
+Optional `.asf-code-health.json` at the project root. Merged over the defaults
+(defaults ← project file ← CLI flags). Every level and every metric can be
+switched on/off independently.

+```
+
+Semantics:
+
+- `enabled: false` — the gate is off entirely; `/asf health` reports
+  "disabled" and the gate never fires.
+- `gate.mode: "block"` (default) — violations fail the gate (exit 1).
+  `"warn"` — violations are reported but the gate passes.
+- `gate.scope: "large"` (default) — the gate blocks only large work.
+  `"all"` — blocks small work too. `"off"` — never blocks.
+- `missingTool: "warn"` (default) — a missing tool skips its metrics.
+  `"fail"` — a missing tool fails the gate (you cannot verify what you
+  cannot measure).
+- `toolTimeoutSeconds` — hard bound on every tool spawn (Rule 15). A tool
+  that exceeds it is killed and its metrics become errors.
+
+## 4. Baseline & trend
+
+`.asf-code-health-baseline.json` is **committed** so the trend survives across
+machines and CI. `--diff` flags any metric that regressed since the baseline;
+`--update-baseline` records the current values (run it deliberately, when the
+code is in a state you want to hold the line at).
+
+## 5. Tooling
+
+Tools are invoked via `npx --no-install` — they must be devDependencies of the
+project, never dependencies of pi-aia-asf. eslint is invoked with `--rule`
+flags (not the project's own config) so the gate measures against *its*
+thresholds, independent of what the project has configured. The gate never
+installs anything.
+
+## 6. Rules
+
+1. **Run it before delivery.** Large work cannot be delivered with a failing
+   gate (unless the user explicitly overrides).
+2. **Fix the cause, not the threshold.** Raising a threshold requires a
+   written justification in the commit message; silently raising it to make
+   the gate pass is a violation of 06c Rule 1.
+3. **The gate is a floor, not a ceiling.** Passing thresholds does not mean
+   the code is good — 06c rules still apply.
+4. **Never disable the gate to ship.** If a metric is genuinely inapplicable,
+   disable that metric in `.asf-code-health.json` with a comment in the
+   commit message, not the whole gate.
