+### Worktree-baseRef recommendation (2.1.133+)
+
+If you use wogi-flow's worktree feature for parallel task execution AND have unpushed local commits you want available in new worktrees:
+
+```json
+// .claude/settings.json
+{
+  "worktree": {
+    "baseRef": "head"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Without this, new worktrees branch from `origin/<default>` (the 2.1.133 default) and your unpushed commits won't be available in them. wogi-flow's `scripts/flow-worktree.js` doesn't currently configure this — it inherits whatever Claude Code's default is.

-- "This one was labeled 'long-term' by the team" → WRONG. Track it. The user decides when to execute, not you.
-- "I'll defer these as lower priority" → WRONG. You may SUGGEST a priority order, but every item must be a tracked task.
-- "The ready queue would be too large" → WRONG. A large queue is correct. A filtered queue is data loss.
-- "I already created the important ones" → WRONG. Important is not your call. Create ALL of them.

-3. If an item is genuinely too large for the current release → STOP and ask: "Finding X requires ~Y min. Ship / split into its own release / defer? Your call."
-4. Never list a finding in release notes without actually fixing it. Promise/delivery mismatches are the rubber-stamp pattern the Completion Truth Gate was designed to prevent.

+Typecheck/lint/build catches code errors, not behavior drift. For critical user-facing flows (login, submit, approve, delete, invite):
 
-1. **Executable scripts, not test-plan documents** — each flow gets an executable regression artifact (Playwright, Jest integration, curl-scripted e2e) at `regression-suite/<flow>.<ext>`. Test plans rot; scripts fail loudly.
-2. **Living feature inventory** — one table with `Feature | Last Verified | Commit | Regression Script | Known Issues`; update the "Known Issues" cell with the bug's task ID rather than writing separate incident docs.
-3. **Change-touch rule** — when a task modifies a file mapped to a regression script, that script must pass before task close. Enforce per-task via acceptance criteria until a native gate ships.
-4. **Audit-seeded, not human-written** — use `/wogi-audit` to produce a draft inventory from current code, then review row-by-row.

 ### Memory-First Clarification
 
-Before asking the user a product-domain question (role model, business rules, product scope, terminology), check `.workflow/state/product.md`, `domain-model.md`, `user-journeys.md`, `glossary.md` first. Every redundant question costs trust.
-
-When you must ask, cite what you checked: *"I read domain-model.md §Roles; it says X — does this apply to Y too?"* — not *"what's Y?"*
-

 ### Source Fidelity Rule (Verbatim Source Preservation)
 
-When a long-form user request becomes a spec, channel-dispatch message, or any artifact that downstream actors will execute, the **verbatim source MUST be preserved alongside the structured derivation**.
-
-The lossy step in cross-session/cross-worker compression is almost always at the spec-authoring layer (manager summarizing user input into a "contract"). Downstream actors then build the summary's interpretation, missing items the user explicitly named. Adversary checks won't catch this because the adversary sees only the spec, not the original prompt.
-
-**Mandatory structure for any spec or dispatch derived from a long user prompt** (>40 lines OR ≥5 discrete items):
-
-1. **`## Original Request (verbatim)` block** — the user's prompt unmodified. Required at the top of the spec body.
-
-2. **`## Item Manifest` block** — enumerated list reconciling every source item to either:
-   - A specific AC in the spec, OR
-   - An explicit `defer-with-reason: <user-cited reason>` entry. The deferral is the user's call, not the AI's. AI-judged "low priority" is NOT a valid reason.
-
-3. **Channel-dispatch links the spec, not summarizes it.** Manager-to-worker channel messages that create work MUST include either the verbatim source OR a path to a saved spec file containing the verbatim source. Bare "summary contracts" sent without source link are forbidden.
+When a long-form user request becomes a spec or channel-dispatch, the **verbatim source MUST be preserved alongside the structured derivation**. The lossy step is at the spec-authoring layer (manager summarizing user input); downstream actors then build the summary, missing items the user named.
 
-**Why this rule exists:** the 2026-04-27 wogi-hub Customers > Services incident — user provided a ~50-line spec for a UI page; manager compressed into a 5-bullet "owner-locked decisions" channel-dispatch message; downstream FE worker built the bullet contract literally; result was 5 of 12 user-named features built. The build looked locally correct but didn't match the user's actual ask. Three existing safeguards all failed to catch it: long-input gate (output rolled up, not preserved as canonical), feature dossier (didn't exist for this feature — chicken-and-egg), anti-deferral rule (text only, no mechanical enforcement at spec-write time).
+Mandatory structure for any spec/dispatch derived from a long user prompt (>40 lines OR ≥5 items):
 
-**Anti-rationalization checklist** — if any of these thoughts cross your mind, you are about to violate the rule:
-- *"I've captured the key decisions in N bullets"* → WRONG. Items the user named are not yours to filter.
-- *"The downstream worker doesn't need the full prompt; the spec is enough"* → WRONG. The spec is YOUR interpretation. The worker should be able to verify against source.
-- *"The user's prompt was rambling; my summary is cleaner"* → WRONG. Cleanliness is not authority to filter user-named items.
-- *"This is just an internal manager message; the user won't see it"* → WRONG. That's exactly when the lossy step happens; verbatim preservation is more important here, not less.
-- *"The long-input gate already extracted the items"* → WRONG IF you don't pin its output as canonical and reconcile every spec against it.
+1. **`## Original Request (verbatim)`** — user's prompt unmodified, top of spec body.
+2. **`## Item Manifest`** — enumerated list reconciling every source item to a specific AC OR an explicit `defer-with-reason: <user-cited reason>`. AI-judged "low priority" is not a valid reason.
+3. **Channel-dispatch links the spec, not summarizes it** — manager-to-worker messages MUST include verbatim source OR a path to a saved spec containing it. Bare "summary contracts" are forbidden.
 
-**Enforcement:** Logic Constitution v3 sub-principle 11.6 (Temporal Source Coverage). Adversary verifies every spec against its `Original Request (verbatim)` block before approval. Specs missing the block when source qualifies for it → BLOCKED at spec_review approval. Verifier CLI: `node scripts/flow-source-fidelity.js check <spec-file>`. Worker-side fallback: `scripts/hooks/core/long-input-enforcement.js` injects forcing instruction at UserPromptSubmit when channel-dispatch arrives long-form without source-link.

 ### Cross-Story Integration Tier-3 Rule
 
-When Story B layers behavior on top of infrastructure shipped by Story A (or any prior commit), Story B's IGR pass MUST treat that infrastructure as an audited dependency, not as a given. Within-module unit tests that pin Story B's local behavior do NOT verify that Story A's contract holds for Story B's usage.
+When Story B layers on infrastructure shipped by Story A, Story B's IGR pass MUST treat that infrastructure as an audited dependency. Within-module unit tests don't verify Story A's contract holds for Story B's usage.
 
-**Mandatory for every layering story:**
+Mandatory for layering stories:
 
-1. **Architect output names upstream dependencies.** A "Dependencies" section lists prior stories/commits + the specific contract relied on (interface signature, file format, transport, invariant). "I'm reusing Story A's X" is not enough; quote the contract.
+1. **Architect names upstream dependencies** — "Dependencies" section listing prior stories/commits + the specific contract relied on (interface, file format, transport, invariant). Quote the contract.
+2. **Adversary challenges the dependency** — "What if Story A's invariant doesn't hold? What evidence proves the contract is intact for THIS usage?"
+3. **At least one Tier-3 integration test** exercises the chain end-to-end. Mark `// regression-tier3`.
+4. **Pre-release gate** verifies stacked coverage. Missing Tier-3 + stacked stories → block release.
 
-2. **Adversary challenges the dependency.** "What if Story A's invariant doesn't hold? What's the failure mode? What evidence proves Story A's contract is intact for THIS usage?" The adversary's job is finding the assumption Story B silently inherits.
+Apply: `git log --oneline <prior-N-commits>` to identify dependencies; for each, write the contract; `grep -r "<interface>"` to verify HEAD; write the Tier-3 test BEFORE Story B's code.
 
-3. **At least one Tier-3 integration test exercises the chain end-to-end.** Not a unit test of Story B in isolation — a test that simulates a real run through both stories' code paths. If Story A's output flows into Story B's input, the test feeds a real Story-A output through Story B and asserts the output. Mark the test `// regression-tier3` so future readers know its purpose.
-
-4. **Pre-release gate verifies stacked coverage.** Before tagging a release, identify any commits that layer on prior commits in the same release. For each, confirm a Tier-3 integration test exists. Missing Tier-3 + stacked stories → block release.
-
-**Why:** unit tests within a story boundary catch the story's own bugs but miss every regression where the story's correct behavior depends on a broken upstream. The 2026-04-26 incident (audit-channel-transport-001) was caused by exactly this gap: Story A stripped MCP servers including the workspace-channel transport itself; Story B layered task-completion routing on top; both stories' tests passed; manager dispatch silently failed in production. Self-IGR caught Story B's local correctness but missed that the upstream contract was broken.
-
-**Anti-rationalization:**
-- *"The upstream story has its own tests"* → WRONG. Their tests pin THEIR contract. Your Tier-3 test pins YOUR usage of their contract.
-- *"It's expensive to set up an integration test"* → WRONG. The 2026-04-26 incident cost a v2.29.1 hot-fix release. Set up time amortizes; regression cost compounds.
-- *"Self-IGR is enough; we don't need the actual adversary subagent"* → WRONG. Self-IGR pattern-matches on the same model that wrote the plan; the cross-story dependency is exactly the blind spot a different-model adversary catches.
-
-**How to apply** (concrete checks for any layering story):
-- `git log --oneline <prior-N-commits>` — which earlier work does this story sit on?
-- For each, write the contract you're relying on: "Story A delivers X via Y."
-- `grep -r "<Story A's interface>"` — is the contract still intact in HEAD?
-- Write the Tier-3 test BEFORE writing Story B's code. If the test cannot be written without first standing up infrastructure that makes the integration verifiable, that's a signal the architecture needs that infrastructure too.

+User says "go until you finish" / "autonomous mode" / "run this autonomously" / "don't bother me, just do it" → flag activates, AI runs without interruption. While active:

 ### Mechanical Deferral Authorization Gate (wf-f9912af6)
 
-The textual "Review-Findings Anti-Deferral" rule above (incident-driven 2026-04-15) is enforced mechanically by the deferral gate. The AI cannot silently mark review/audit findings as `status: deferred*` without explicit user authorization — the PreToolUse hook intercepts every Write/Edit/Bash that targets `.workflow/state/last-review.json` or `.workflow/state/last-audit.json` and BLOCKS the write when:
-
-1. The new content introduces one or more findings whose `status` matches `/^deferred(?:[-_].*)?$|^wont-?fix$|^skipped$/i`, AND
-2. No valid authorization marker exists at `.workflow/state/deferral-authorization.json`, AND
-3. The `no-defer-pin.json` is not active (a pin overrides any auth — set when the user says "fix everything" / "no deferrals" / "I don't want tech debt").
-
-**Authorization sources** (one of):
-
-- **User-prompt classifier** (`scripts/hooks/core/deferral-classifier.js`): regex-detects explicit defer phrases in UserPromptSubmit messages — "defer X", "fix critical only", "ship as-is", "option 2"/"option 4" from the /wogi-review menu, etc. Writes auth marker with TTL 10 min by default.
-- **Explicit CLI**: `node scripts/flow-defer-auth.js grant --scope=all --reason="<verbatim user phrase>"` (or `--findings=F5,F6,...`). Used when the AI needs to record explicit authorization (e.g., user picked option 4).
+The Review-Findings Anti-Deferral rule is enforced mechanically. The PreToolUse hook intercepts every Write/Edit/Bash that targets `.workflow/state/last-review.json` or `last-audit.json` and BLOCKS the write when:
 
-**Negative intent overrides positive**: phrases like "fix everything", "no deferrals", "don't defer", "I don't want tech debt" delete any existing auth and write a `no-defer-pin.json` that hard-blocks deferrals for ~30 minutes.
+1. New content introduces a finding with `status` matching `/^deferred(?:[-_].*)?$|^wont-?fix$|^skipped$/i`, AND
+2. No valid auth marker at `.workflow/state/deferral-authorization.json`, AND
+3. `no-defer-pin.json` is not active.
 
-**Bash-mutating commands** that write to the target files AND mention `deferred|wont-fix|skipped|dismissed` are blocked when no auth is active — this catches `node -e "fs.writeFileSync('.workflow/state/last-review.json', ...)"` patterns that bypass Write/Edit. Reads (`cat`/`jq`/`grep`) are not blocked.
+**Authorization sources**:
+- **User-prompt classifier** — regex-detects defer phrases ("defer X", "fix critical only", "ship as-is", "option 2/4"). Auth TTL 10min.
+- **Explicit CLI** — `node scripts/flow-defer-auth.js grant --scope=all --reason="<verbatim user phrase>"`.
 
-**Audit trail**: every blocked attempt logs to `.workflow/state/deferral-block-log.json` (last 100 entries) for telemetry.
+**Negative intent overrides positive**: "fix everything", "no deferrals", "I don't want tech debt" delete auth and write `no-defer-pin.json` (~30min hard-block).
 
-**Why mechanical enforcement matters:** the textual rule has been violated multiple times in incidents — the AI decides "low risk / can wait / pre-existing" and writes `status: deferred` to last-review.json based on its own judgment. The gate makes this structurally impossible without the user's word.
+**Bash-mutating commands** that target review/audit files AND mention `deferred|wont-fix|skipped|dismissed` are blocked when no auth is active. Reads (cat/jq/grep) pass.
 
-**Anti-rationalization** (if any of these thoughts cross your mind, you are about to violate the gate):
-- *"This finding is pre-existing, not introduced by my changes"* → WRONG. Pre-existing is a reason to fix it now (continuous improvement) or to surface it to the user with an explicit "ship / fix / defer" question, not to silently `status: deferred-pre-existing`.
-- *"This is LOW severity, the user won't care"* → WRONG. Severity is the user's call, not yours.
-- *"The adversary already verified it's not a real bug"* → WRONG. If it's not a bug, mark it `dismissed-not-a-bug` only AFTER the user confirms; otherwise leave it `open`.
-- *"I'll batch deferrals into the next review cycle"* → WRONG. There is no "next cycle" — the user reads the findings now.

 ### Mechanical Research-Required Gate (wf-5cd71b1f)
 
-The textual rules in CLAUDE.md ("Research Before Propose," Tier 2/3 routing protocol) say the AI must read evidence before answering diagnostic questions. The research-required gate makes this mechanical: it intercepts diagnostic prompts at UserPromptSubmit and re-prompts the AI at Stop hook if the assistant turn produced text without enough Read calls against evidence paths.
-
-**How it works**:
-
-1. **UserPromptSubmit classifier** (`scripts/hooks/core/research-required-classifier.js`): regex-classifies each prompt into `command` / `factual` / `diagnostic` / `none`.
-   - `command` — task IDs, action imperatives ("add X"), follow-ups ("yes", "continue", "option N"), AI's own slash commands
-   - `factual` — Tier 1 markers ("what is", "where is", "show me", "list all")
-   - `diagnostic` — Tier 2/3 markers ("why", "should I", "what do you think", "is this correct", "explain why", "did you fix")
-   - On `diagnostic`: writes `.workflow/state/research-required-this-turn.json` with `{requiredEvidence: 2, attemptCount: 0, classifiedAt}`.
-
-2. **Override**: prompt prefix `!` skips the gate entirely. For when the user knows their question is conversational and doesn't need evidence reading.
-
-3. **Stop-hook gate** (`scripts/hooks/core/research-required-gate.js`): if marker exists, parses the JSONL transcript for the current turn (since the most recent user entry), counts:
-   - `Read` tool calls where `file_path` matches an evidence prefix
-   - `Bash` tool calls where the command starts with `cat|head|tail|grep|rg|jq|less|view|awk|sed` and targets an evidence-prefix path
-   - `Glob`/`Grep` tool calls (any pattern counts)
-
-4. **If count < requiredEvidence**:
-   - Increments `attemptCount` in the marker
-   - Returns `{continue: true, stopReason: <violation message>}` — Claude Code re-prompts the AI with the message; the AI must redo the turn with reads
-   - After `maxAttempts` (default 3): returns `{continue: false, stopReason: <hard-stop message>}` — visible to the user, marker cleared
-
-5. **If count ≥ requiredEvidence**: marker is consumed (deleted), Stop proceeds normally.
+Diagnostic prompts are intercepted at UserPromptSubmit and re-prompted at Stop hook if the assistant turn produced text without enough Read calls against evidence paths.
 
-**Evidence prefixes** (shared with `research-evidence-gate.js`): `.workflow/state/`, `.workflow/changes/`, `.workflow/specs/`, `.workflow/epics/`, `lib/`, `scripts/`, `src/`, `tests/`, `app/`. Reading code in answer to "why does X happen" is the legitimate path.
+Flow:
 
-**Why mechanical enforcement matters**: the textual Tier 2/3 protocol relies on the AI self-classifying its own question's complexity, which is the rubber-stamp pattern. The gate uses structural markers + Stop-hook redo loop — same proven architecture as `worker-tool-first-gate.js` G1/G4. The AI cannot bypass: UserPromptSubmit fires on every user message, Stop fires on every assistant turn end, and `{continue: true, stopReason}` is honored by Claude Code as a forced redo.
+1. **Classifier** (`research-required-classifier.js`) classifies each prompt: `command` / `factual` / `diagnostic` / `none`. Diagnostic markers: "why", "should I", "what do you think", "is this correct", "explain why", "did you fix". On diagnostic → write `.workflow/state/research-required-this-turn.json` with `{requiredEvidence: 2, attemptCount: 0}`.
+2. **Override**: prompt prefix `!` skips the gate.
+3. **Stop-hook gate** (`research-required-gate.js`) parses the JSONL transcript, counts Read against evidence prefixes, Bash with `cat|head|tail|grep|rg|jq|less|view|awk|sed` against evidence paths, and any Glob/Grep.
+4. **count < required** → `{continue: true, stopReason: <message>}` forces redo. After `maxAttempts` (default 3) → hard-stop visible to user.
+5. **count ≥ required** → marker consumed, Stop proceeds.
 
-**Anti-rationalization**:
-- *"I already know the answer from context"* → WRONG. Confidence is not evidence. The gate fires on the question's structure, not your perceived certainty.
-- *"This question is conversational, doesn't need code reading"* → WRONG. If you genuinely believe that, the user can prefix `!` next time. Within a turn, the gate is final.
-- *"I'll cite the evidence in my next answer instead of reading it now"* → WRONG. Citations require reads in the same turn. The transcript proves it.
