Subject: [PATCH 01/95] feat: implement cross-package manager install matrix in
 E2E tests

Added support for an install matrix in the E2E tests for `arkor init` and `create-arkor`, allowing tests to run with different package managers (npm, pnpm, yarn, yarn-berry, bun). Introduced the `ARKOR_E2E_PM` environment variable to control which package manager is used during the tests, enhancing test coverage and reliability across various environments. Updated CI workflow to accommodate this new testing strategy.

+  # Cross-pm install matrix: exercises `arkor init --use-<pm>` and
+  # `create-arkor --use-<pm>` against every package manager the SDK accepts,
+  # crossed with OS and a curated set of Node versions known to shift
+  # spawn / pipe / strip-types behaviour (e.g. libuv 1.51 in Node 22.17
+  # changed macOS pipe-flush timing — the kind of thing that ate hours of
+  # debugging in eng-606). The build job above already runs `pnpm test`
+  # end-to-end, but its install assertions only cover the pms that a
+  # typical contributor has on PATH (npm + pnpm). The yarn / yarn-berry /
+  # bun lanes pull their runtimes in CI-only because they aren't a
+  # development prerequisite and we don't want `pnpm test` on a fresh
+  # checkout to require them.
+  #
+  # Each runner sets `ARKOR_E2E_PM=<label>`; the e2e suites
+  # (e2e/cli/src/{arkor-init,create-arkor}.test.ts) gate their install
+  # cases on that env var so exactly one pm's install assertions run per
+  # matrix entry. The rest of the e2e suite runs unfiltered — setup
+  # (workspace install + CLI build + corepack/bun bootstrap) dominates
+  # each job's wall time, so the marginal cost of running every e2e test
+  # over the matrix pm/Node/OS triple is small and occasionally surfaces
+  # cross-axis interactions outside the install path (e.g. yarn-berry's
+  # PnP fs layout influencing scaffold or spawn assertions).

Subject: [PATCH 02/95] ci: adjust pnpm caching strategy in CI workflow

Updated the CI workflow to intentionally skip pnpm caching during the setup-node step. This change addresses issues with pnpm not being on the PATH at that point, preventing cache lookup failures. Each job will now fetch dependencies fresh, which, while adding some time, avoids potential cross-OS pitfalls and ensures a smoother setup process.

Subject: [PATCH 03/95] ci: upgrade corepack in CI workflow to resolve
 npm-registry key issues

Enhanced the CI workflow by adding a step to upgrade corepack to the latest version before enabling it. This addresses issues with stale npm-registry signing keys in older Node versions, ensuring successful `pnpm install` operations. The change improves reliability across different environments by preventing signature verification failures.

Subject: [PATCH 04/95] fix(ci): unblock install-matrix on Windows + yarn
 project-spec
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two CI failures from the previous install-matrix run:

1. `yarn --version` (and `bun --version`) in the "Confirm pm version"
   step were rejected by corepack with "This project is configured to
   use pnpm" because the workspace's package.json pins pnpm. Step out
   into $RUNNER_TEMP before the version check so corepack falls back
   to the matrix pm we just `--activate`d.

2. `npm install -g corepack@latest` failed on windows-latest with
   `EEXIST: ... C:\npm\prefix\yarn.cmd` — the runner image pre-seeds
   yarn classic's shim under the global npm prefix and corepack tries
   to write its own yarn shim there. `--force` clobbers the existing
   shim; harmless on POSIX runners which don't ship the colliding bin.

Subject: [PATCH 05/95] feat(scaffold): pin nodeLinker:node-modules for yarn so
 PnP doesn't hide deps
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

yarn-berry defaults to Plug'n'Play, which doesn't materialise a
`node_modules/` tree. The arkor runtime (`arkor build` → esbuild →
`node ./.arkor/build/index.mjs`) doesn't load PnP, so a vanilla `arkor
init --use-yarn` against yarn 4 leaves `arkor dev` / `arkor train`
unable to resolve their dependencies.

When the user picks yarn, scaffold now:
  - emits `.yarnrc.yml` with `nodeLinker: node-modules` (yarn 1.x
    ignores it — it reads `.yarnrc`, not `.yarnrc.yml` — so the file
    is harmless on the classic line); existing `.yarnrc.yml` is kept
    so users who deliberately want PnP aren't overridden
  - appends `.yarn/cache` and `.yarn/install-state.gz` to `.gitignore`
    so the initial commit doesn't capture the (~tens of MB) zip cache
    yarn berry leaves under `.yarn/` regardless of the linker

`patchGitignore` is generalised to a missing-line set so the yarn
extras coexist with the existing `node_modules/` / `dist/` / `.arkor/`
required entries. `init.ts` and `create-arkor/bin.ts` now thread
`packageManager` into `scaffold(...)`.

Subject: [PATCH 06/95] test(e2e): unify yarn-berry assertion + surface install
 failures
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two related tweaks to the install-matrix e2e cases:

1. Drop the `if (label === "yarn-berry") expect(.yarn) else expect
   (node_modules)` branch. Now that scaffold emits `.yarnrc.yml` with
   `nodeLinker: node-modules`, yarn-berry produces a real
   `node_modules/` and the regular invariant holds for every pm.

2. Print the captured arkor stdout/stderr on assertion failure. arkor
   init / create-arkor swallow `<pm> install` failures into a one-line
   warning so the user can retry manually — which means a broken pm
   setup leaves the test with `result.code === 0` but no
   node_modules, and the only diagnostic ends up buried in result
   .stderr that vitest doesn't surface. Eager `console.error` keeps
   the install-matrix CI logs actionable instead of bare `expected
   false to be true`.

Two more install-matrix failures from the previous run:

1. bun and yarn (both classic and berry) failed with:
       error: Workspace dependency "@arkor/cli-internal" not found
       error: @arkor/cli-internal@workspace:* failed to resolve
   bun and yarn try to resolve a `file:` dep's devDependencies even
   though npm/pnpm skip them, so the workspace-protocol entry that
   pnpm uses to link cli-internal during the in-repo build trips the
   scaffolded fixture's install. cli-internal isn't a real runtime
   dep — tsdown bundles it into dist via `deps.alwaysBundle` — and
   on a published arkor `pnpm publish` would have stripped /
   substituted it. Stage a copy of `packages/arkor` into
   `$RUNNER_TEMP/arkor-scaffold-source` with the workspace devDep
   removed and aim `ARKOR_INTERNAL_SCAFFOLD_ARKOR_SPEC` there for
   the install-matrix tests.

2. Windows × Node 22.13.x kept failing the corepack signing-key
   check even after `npm install -g --force corepack@latest`. On
   POSIX the upgrade replaces the bundled corepack inside the
   tool-cache, but on Windows `npm install -g` lands in
   `C:\npm\prefix\` which sits *behind* setup-node's tool-cache in
   PATH — the bundled (stale-keys) corepack keeps winning
   resolution. The corepack-keys bug isn't pm-version-specific, so
   add a single `exclude` for `windows-latest × >=22.13.0
   <22.14.0` until either Node 22.13 ships a patch with fresh keys
   or we add a tool-cache copy step. Windows pnpm/npm coverage is
   still exercised at 22.17 / 22.21 / 24.12.

The build job is unaffected — it points `file:` at
`packages/arkor` directly, both as a canary that the in-workspace
package.json itself is sane and because npm/pnpm (the only pms it
exercises) already skip a file: dep's devDependencies.

Subject: [PATCH 08/95] fix(ci): unblock yarn / yarn-berry installs on the
 matrix
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

yarn classic and yarn-berry both fail in CI with separate root causes
that the matrix env can pin around:

- yarn-berry (yarn 4): detects \`CI=1\` (set by spawn-cli) and turns on
  \`enableImmutableInstalls\` by default, refusing to write the
  lockfile that freshly scaffolded projects don't have yet — exits
  with \`YN0028: The lockfile would have been created by this
  install, which is explicitly forbidden\`. Set
  \`YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS=false\` so yarn-berry can author
  the initial lockfile during install.

- yarn classic (yarn 1.22.x): has a known race extracting
  platform-specific optionalDependencies — esbuild's
  \`@esbuild/<arch>\` packages exit with \`ENOENT: ... open
  '...integrity/node_modules/@esbuild/linux-x64/.yarn-tarball.tgz'\`
  because the destination dir is created racily. Setting
  \`YARN_NETWORK_CONCURRENCY=1\` serialises the extraction and
  sidesteps the race. yarn classic is in maintenance mode so this
  isn't going to be fixed upstream. Harmless for yarn-berry, which
  reads \`networkConcurrency\` from \`.yarnrc.yml\`.

Both env vars are scoped to the install-matrix's "Run e2e suite"
step so they only apply to the matrix pm under test, not to the
regular build matrix.

Subject: [PATCH 09/95] fix(e2e): per-spawn YARN_CACHE_FOLDER to dodge yarn 1
 race
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

yarn classic 1.22.x has a known race extracting tarballs into
\`~/.cache/yarn/v6/\`: when two yarn processes write to the same
cache concurrently, the inner mkdir-then-write sequence collides
and the second loser dies with \`ENOENT: ... open
'...integrity/node_modules/<pkg>/.yarn-tarball.tgz'\`. The install
matrix hits this because vitest runs test files in parallel
workers — \`arkor init --use-yarn\` and \`create-arkor --use-yarn\`
fire up two simultaneous yarn 1 processes pointed at the shared
cache.

\`YARN_NETWORK_CONCURRENCY=1\` only serialises within a single
yarn process; it doesn't help when two processes race the cache.
\`yarn install --mutex network\` would, but that's an arg the SDK
doesn't pass and shouldn't (we don't want pm-aware install args).

Allocating a per-spawn cache via \`mkdtempSync\` and exposing it
through \`YARN_CACHE_FOLDER\` removes the contention entirely.
yarn-berry / npm / pnpm / bun all ignore the env var, so this is
a yarn-1-only knob in practice. Cleanup on close keeps long CI
runs from leaking \`arkor-e2e-yarn-cache-*\` dirs into tmpdir.

Subject: [PATCH 10/95] fix(ci): exclude yarn classic from
 posthog-node-incompatible Nodes
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The remaining yarn-classic install-matrix failures all share the
same root cause — not a CI bug:

    error posthog-node@5.30+: The engine "node" is incompatible
    with this module. Expected version "^20.20.0 || >=22.22.0".
    Got "22.13.1" (or 22.17.1 / 22.6.0)

arkor pulls in `posthog-node@^5.30.6`, whose engines field is
`^20.20.0 || >=22.22.0`. yarn classic is strict-engines by default
and refuses to extract on any Node in the gap; npm / pnpm / bun
warn-and-continue, and yarn-berry's engine check is opt-in. The
proper fix is on the arkor side (either tighten `engines.node`
above 22.22 or pin posthog-node to a Node-22.x-friendly version)
and is out of scope for this CI sweep.

Drop the yarn × pre-22.22-Node combinations rather than mask the
real incompatibility with `--ignore-engines` / `YARN_IGNORE_ENGINES`:
- exclude `yarn × Node 22.13.x` and `yarn × Node 22.17.x` from the
  main matrix (3 OS × 2 Nodes = 6 jobs)
- drop the `yarn × Node 22.6.x` ubuntu sanity entry from `include`

`yarn × Node 22.21.x` happens to pass today (yarn picked an older
posthog-node copy from cache) but is on the same theoretical
failure cliff — leaving it in keeps a canary for when behaviour
changes. yarn × Node 24.12.x is the only entry in the canonical
posthog-node engines window and continues to cover the real-user
yarn-classic + arkor flow.

Subject: [PATCH 11/95] fix(scaffold,ci): address PR #99 Copilot review
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Four review comments, three on `scaffold.ts` for the yarn-berry
compatibility flow and one on `ci.yaml`'s install-matrix exclusions.

scaffold.ts (3 comments):
  - Existing `.yarnrc.yml` was previously kept verbatim. The reviewer
    flagged two real failure modes that left scaffolded projects
    broken under arkor:
      1. Existing `.yarnrc.yml` carries unrelated yarn settings but
         no `nodeLinker:` key — yarn 4 silently defaults to PnP.
      2. Existing `.yarnrc.yml` explicitly pins `nodeLinker: pnp`
         from a prior repo state — arkor still can't load through
         PnP.
    `patchYarnConfig` now patches in-place: if `nodeLinker:` is
    absent, append `nodeLinker: node-modules`; if present with any
    other value, rewrite to `node-modules`; if already correct,
    report `ok`. Other settings are preserved verbatim.
  - The yarn config + yarn-cache `.gitignore` lines were only
    emitted when `packageManager === "yarn"`. The reviewer noted
    that both CLIs have a real `packageManager === undefined` path
    (the manual install hint, "install dependencies (npm i / pnpm
    install / yarn / bun install)") — a yarn-berry user reading
    that hint and running `yarn install` would land on PnP and
    break the runtime. Defensively emit the yarn config + cache
    lines when pm is yarn OR undefined; only skip when the user
    *explicitly* picked another pm. yarn 1 ignores `.yarnrc.yml`
    (reads `.yarnrc`) and other pms ignore the file entirely, so
    this is harmless for non-yarn flows.

ci.yaml (1 comment):
  - The `yarn × Node 22.21` install-matrix lane was kept on the
    theory that it's "useful as a canary" even though posthog-node
    requires `>=22.22.0`. The reviewer pointed out that hosted
    runners have ephemeral caches — what passed today (because
    yarn happened to reuse an older cached posthog-node) will
    flake spuriously next push. Add the lane to the exclude list
    alongside 22.13 / 22.17.

scaffold.test.ts: replace the now-obsolete "keeps an existing
.yarnrc.yml untouched" case with three cases covering the new
patch behaviour (append-when-missing / rewrite-when-different /
ok-when-already-correct), plus a case for the
`packageManager === undefined` flow. The two existing tests that
asserted exact post-scaffold contents (writes-all-starter-files,
inserts-separating-newline) now expect the additional yarn
artifacts that fire on the undefined-pm flow.

Subject: [PATCH 12/95] fix(scaffold,e2e): address PR #99 round-2 Copilot
 review
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Three follow-up review comments after the previous round:

1. **scaffold.ts:156 — "rewrites pnp → node-modules" is too
   aggressive.** Both `arkor init` and `create-arkor .` support
   scaffolding into existing directories, so silently overwriting
   an explicit `nodeLinker: pnp` would flip the install mode for
   the entire repo and break unrelated packages in a yarn-berry
   workspace. Walk that back: when `nodeLinker:` is missing, still
   APPEND `nodeLinker: node-modules` (yarn 4 would otherwise
   silently default to PnP and break the arkor runtime); when an
   explicit value is already set, leave the file `kept` and let
   the user reconcile arkor's runtime expectations with their own
   yarn config. Test renamed from "rewrites pnp" to "keeps an
   existing .yarnrc.yml that explicitly pins a non-node-modules
   linker".

2. **scaffold.ts:33 — `ScaffoldOptions.packageManager` docstring is
   inaccurate.** The previous round changed the behaviour so
   `undefined` also writes `.yarnrc.yml` and yarn-cache `.gitignore`
   entries (defending the manual-install-hint flow), but the
   docblock still claimed `undefined` skipped pm-specific files.
   `ScaffoldOptions` is exported from `@arkor/cli-internal`, so
   the wrong contract leaks to external callers — refresh the
   comment to describe the "undefined is treated as could-be-yarn"
   policy and call out which pms opt the project out
   (`"npm" | "pnpm" | "bun"`).

3. **AGENTS.md:38 — `ARKOR_E2E_PM=yarn-berry ...` local example
   doesn't actually work.** `runCli()` forces `CI=1` for every
   spawned CLI, so yarn 4's `enableImmutableInstalls` default
   kicks in and refuses the freshly scaffolded project's first
   lockfile (`YN0028`). `YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS=false`
   lived in ci.yaml until now, so local runs needed it threaded
   through manually. Move the env into spawn-cli.ts so it's set
   per spawn — local + CI both work without extra plumbing. Also
   moved `YARN_NETWORK_CONCURRENCY=1` (yarn 1 optionalDeps race
   guard) for consistency. The ci.yaml block is replaced with a
   pointer comment.

 review
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two follow-up review items:

1. **scaffold.ts:181 — silent `kept` on a non-`node-modules`
   `nodeLinker:` is a footgun.** The previous round walked back the
   silent rewrite (correct: that would change install mode for the
   whole pre-existing yarn-berry workspace), but switching to a
   silent `kept` left the user with a project that scaffolds + yarn
   installs cleanly and only blows up later when `arkor dev` /
   `arkor train` can't resolve modules through PnP. Surface it
   loud:
     - `ScaffoldResult` grows a `warnings: string[]` field for
       non-fatal advisories.
     - `patchYarnConfig` returns the conflicting linker value
       alongside the action when it elects to keep an explicit
       non-matching value; `scaffold()` wraps that into a
       user-visible warning that names the offending value and
       points at the runtime mismatch.
     - `runInit` (arkor) and `run()` (create-arkor) both render
       the warnings via `ui.log.warn` / `clack.log.warn` after
       the file-action note, so the user sees them before the
       install / git steps fire.
     - scaffold.test.ts's "kept" case now asserts on the warning
       payload too; the "ok" case asserts `warnings` stays empty.
     - init.test.ts's scaffold mock returns `warnings: []` to
       match the new contract.

2. **arkor-init.test.ts:205 / create-arkor.test.ts:352 — install-
   case list is duplicated three ways.** The `[{ label, flag,
   localDefault }, …]` array lives in both e2e test files and the
   CI yaml's `PM_LABEL` bash mapping mirrors the labels — easy to
   change one and forget the other two. Pull the array + skip
   logic into a shared `e2e/cli/src/install-matrix.ts` (`INSTALL_
   CASES`, `shouldSkipInstallCase`, `InstallCaseLabel`), and
   import from both test files. The CI yaml's case statement is
   small (3 patterns) and can't import TS, so it stays inline but
   gets a comment pointing at `install-matrix.ts` as the source
   of truth — when the label vocabulary changes, both places have
   to move.

Subject: [PATCH 14/95] fix(scaffold,e2e): address PR #99 round-4 Copilot/Codex
 review
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Five follow-up review items:

1. **scaffold.ts:200/207 — `.yarnrc.yml` linker parse is too
   strict** (Codex P2 + Copilot). The previous round used raw
   string equality on `nodeLinker: node-modules`, which
   misreads valid YAML forms — quoted scalars, trailing
   `# comment`, extra whitespace. Pull the parse into a
   `readNodeLinkerValue` helper that strips a comment tail
   (preceded by mandatory whitespace, so `#` inside a quoted
   scalar still survives), trims, and peels one matched pair
   of quotes. Adds a parametrised regression test covering
   all four spelling variants the reviewers flagged.

2. **scaffold.ts:334 — kept-conflict warning text was
   incorrect.** The remediation hint said "remove the line so
   yarn uses the scaffolded `.yarnrc.yml` default", but in the
   conflict path we leave the existing file on disk verbatim
   — removing the `nodeLinker:` line would just drop yarn
   back to its PnP default and reproduce the same runtime
   failure. Rewrite the warning to point at the actual fix
   ("change the value to `node-modules`").

3. **scaffold.ts:320 — undefined-pm + existing project silently
   flips install mode.** When `packageManager === undefined`
   and we're scaffolding into a directory that already has a
   `package.json`, the surrounding repo could be a yarn-berry
   workspace deliberately on the PnP default. Writing
   `.yarnrc.yml` there changes the install mode for the whole
   repo — the exact silent foot-gun the round-2 fix tried to
   avoid for the explicit-`pnp` case. Snapshot
   `existsSync(package.json)` at the top of `scaffold()`
   (before patchPackageJson makes it always-true) and only
   emit yarn config defensively when both `pm === undefined`
   AND no pre-existing project.

4. **ci.yaml:414 — `bun-version: latest` is non-reproducible**
   (Copilot). Pin to `1.3.13` so the matrix can't go red on
   an upstream release with no repo change. Comment notes
   this matches the pinning style of the corepack-prepared
   pnpm-* / yarn versions and that bumps should land in
   their own commit.

5. **install-matrix.ts:62 — unknown `ARKOR_E2E_PM` was a
   silent green** (Copilot). With the previous logic, a
   typo or a CI-yaml `PM_LABEL` drift would make every case
   answer `skip = true` and the entire install suite would
   pass without running anything. Throw a descriptive error
   that names the bad label and points at the CI yaml the
   user probably needs to update. Adds
   `e2e/cli/src/install-matrix.test.ts` covering the four
   gating modes plus the new loud-fail.

Subject: [PATCH 15/95] fix(scaffold): address PR #99 round-5 Copilot review
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two follow-up review items (the third — `SKIP_E2E_INSTALL` missing
from turbo's env allowlist — is a false positive; both `test` and
`test:coverage` already list it in turbo.json):

1. **scaffold.ts:183 — `nodeLinker:` reader anchored to column 0
   only.** Earlier rounds' regex required the key at the start of
   the line, but YAML allows the root mapping itself to be
   indented. An existing `.yarnrc.yml` like
   `  nodeLinker: node-modules` was being misread as missing, and
   `patchYarnConfig` then appended a SECOND `nodeLinker` key —
   leaving the file ambiguous (two top-level keys with the same
   name) or, with two-space indent vs zero-indent append, mixing
   indent styles. `readNodeLinkerValue` now snapshots the indent
   of the first content line and treats keys at that indent as
   top-level. Deeper-indented `nodeLinker:` entries (nested under
   another key) are correctly ignored — added regression tests
   for both.

2. **scaffold.ts:134 — gitignore yarn entries leaked into existing
   non-yarn projects.** The previous round gated `.yarnrc.yml`
   emission on `pm === undefined && !isExistingProject` so a merge
   into an npm/pnpm/bun repo wouldn't acquire yarn config, but
   `patchGitignore` still added `.yarn/cache` /
   `.yarn/install-state.gz` lines under the same conditions —
   inconsistent with the surrounding "don't change repo
   pm-behaviour unless yarn was explicit" policy. Thread
   `isExistingProject` into `patchGitignore` and apply the same
   guard. Added a test asserting the lines stay out when undefined
   pm scaffolds into a directory with a pre-existing
   `package.json`.

Subject: [PATCH 16/95] test(cli): cover scaffold-warning surface in arkor init
 + create-arkor
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two follow-up review items from PR #99 round 6 — both about test
coverage on the new `warnings: string[]` channel from `scaffold()`:

1. **packages/arkor/src/cli/commands/init.ts:147** — the warning
   loop in `runInit` was the only place the conflicting-
   `nodeLinker:` notice (and any future scaffold advisory)
   reached the user. A regression that dropped it would silently
   eat the guidance. Added two cases to `init.test.ts`:
     - returns warnings via the scaffold mock and asserts every
       string surfaces verbatim, in order, through the mocked
       `clack.log.warn` (which `ui.log.warn` resolves to via
       `../prompts.ts`)
     - asserts `clack.log.warn` is *not* called when scaffold
       returns `warnings: []`, locking down the quiet-by-default
       contract
   The existing `beforeEach` was also tightened to call
   `vi.clearAllMocks()` — `restoreAllMocks` only undoes spies,
   not `vi.mock()`-created fakes, so `clack.log.warn` call lists
   leaked between tests once anything started asserting on them.

2. **packages/create-arkor/src/bin.ts:230** — symmetric gap on
   the create-arkor side, plus the lack of any focused unit test
   for the wider `run()` function. Added `bin.test.ts` covering
   the same warning-surface contract and the `packageManager`
   forwarding to `scaffold()` (which the install-matrix relies
   on to write `.yarnrc.yml` for yarn).
   To make `run()` testable without spawning the bin, exported
   it from bin.ts and gated `program.parseAsync(process.argv)`
   behind an `import.meta.url === pathToFileURL(argv[1]).href`
   entrypoint check — under vitest the module loads but
   commander stays out of the way.

/ `npx create-arkor` all run the bin via a `node_modules/.bin/<name>`
shim, so `process.argv[1]` is the symlink while `import.meta.url`
is the real `dist/bin.mjs` (Node's `--preserve-symlinks-main`
defaults to false, resolving the main module through symlinks). A
verbatim equality check returned `false`, `program.parseAsync`
never ran, and the CLI silently exited doing nothing.

Replace the inline check with `shouldRunAsCli(argv1, moduleUrl)`,
which `realpath`s both sides before comparing — symlink and target
collapse to the same canonical path. The helper falls back to
returning false on `fileURLToPath` failure so non-file module URLs
(vitest's transform, `data:`, …) never trigger the CLI path.

`shouldRunAsCli` is exported so the new bin.test.ts cases can drive
it with a real symlink fixture (`symlinkSync` in a temp dir),
locking down the four scenarios:
  - direct invocation (argv == module file) → true
  - symlink → real (npm/pnpm/npx shim) → true
  - unrelated argv (vitest worker) → false
  - missing argv → false

The existing tests passed because they execute the real file path
directly (no shim involved); only an integration test against an
actual symlink could surface the regression — Codex's review
called this out explicitly.

Subject: [PATCH 18/95] fix(scaffold): surface yarn-linker conflict in
 undefined-pm + existing-project flow
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

PR #99 round-8 review: the `pm === undefined && isExistingProject`
branch deliberately skips `patchYarnConfig()` (per round-5: don't
flip the install mode of an unknown surrounding workspace), but
that also dropped the `nodeLinker:` conflict warning on the floor.
A user reading the manual install hint and running `yarn install`
against an existing `nodeLinker: pnp` setup would still hit the
same `arkor dev` runtime failure as the explicit-yarn path — just
without any heads-up.

Add an inspect-only `inspectYarnConfigConflict()` helper that
reads the existing `.yarnrc.yml` (without mutating it) and returns
the conflicting value when present. Centralise the advisory copy
in `buildYarnLinkerConflictWarning()` so the patch and inspect
paths emit identical wording. Wire the inspect branch into the
`else if` arm so the warning surfaces regardless of which path
ran. Tests cover the conflict, no-config, and already-correct
cases for the new branch.

Subject: [PATCH 19/95] fix(scaffold): warn about yarn-berry caveat in
 undefined-pm + existing-project flow
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

PR #99 round-9 (Copilot, scaffold.ts:142 + :439): the round-5
policy strips both the defensive `.yarnrc.yml` write AND the
yarn-cache `.gitignore` lines when undefined-pm merges into an
existing project (so we don't flip the install mode of an unknown
surrounding workspace). But the manual install hint still says
`npm i / pnpm install / yarn / bun install`, so a yarn-berry user
following it would silently land on PnP (no nodeLinker) and
pollute the repo with `.yarn/cache` (no gitignore entries) — and
this branch currently emits no advisory in either case.

Generalise the inspect helper from a "conflict only" boolean into
`inspectYarnConfig()` that classifies as `ok` / `conflict` /
`needs-setup`. The new `needs-setup` outcome (no `.yarnrc.yml`,
or one without a `nodeLinker:` key) now triggers a single
`buildYarnBerryCaveatAdvisory()` warning that bundles both
fixups (yarnrc nodeLinker + gitignore yarn-cache lines), clearly
scoped to yarn 4+ so non-yarn users immediately know they can
ignore.

Tests: replaced the now-incorrect "stays silent when no yarnrc"
assertion with two new cases covering both `needs-setup`
sub-states (no file / file with no nodeLinker key); the existing
`conflict` and already-correct `node-modules` cases stay green.

Subject: [PATCH 20/95] fix: address PR #99 round-10 Copilot review
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

scaffold.ts:489 — the round-9 yarn-berry caveat fired on every
undefined-pm + existing-project scaffold (e.g. CLI invoked via
`node`/`tsx`, which doesn't set `npm_config_user_agent`),
spamming pure npm/pnpm/bun projects with irrelevant noise. Gate
the `needs-setup` advisory on `package.json#packageManager`
declaring yarn 2+ via the corepack-style field. Conflict warning
stays unconditional — an existing `.yarnrc.yml` pinned to a
non-`node-modules` value is unambiguous evidence the project uses
yarn-berry, regardless of whether the corepack field is set.

Tests: existing yarn-berry-caveat fixtures now declare
`packageManager: "yarn@4.6.0"`/`"yarn@2.4.3"`. New cases cover
the silence path (no field, pnpm, npm, bun, yarn 1.x) and the
conflict-without-declaration path.

ci.yaml:302/346 — `corepack@latest` made the matrix
non-reproducible (an upstream release could change resolution
behaviour or raise the supported-Node floor and break jobs
without any repository change). Pin to `corepack@0.34.7`
(published 2026-04-17 with the post-rotation signing keys;
engines `^20.10.0 || ^22.11.0 || >=24.0.0` cover every Node
minor in this matrix), mirroring the same pinning policy the
workflow already applies to pnpm/yarn/bun.

Subject: [PATCH 21/95] fix(scaffold): address PR #99 round-11 Copilot review
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

scaffold.ts (yarn-berry caveat gate): the round-10
`existingProjectDeclaresYarnBerry` filter was over-broad — it
silenced the caveat even when an existing `.yarnrc.yml` lacked
`nodeLinker:`. But yarn 1 reads `.yarnrc` (no `.yml`), so the
file's mere existence is unambiguous yarn-berry evidence
regardless of the corepack declaration. Split the prior
`needs-setup` outcome into `no-config` and `berry-without-linker`:
the latter now warns unconditionally (matching the `conflict`
treatment), while `no-config` keeps the round-10 corepack gate.

scaffold.ts (`readNodeLinkerValue`): YAML structural markers
(`---`, `...`, `%YAML 1.2`, `%TAG …`) aren't mapping entries,
but the prior anchor-on-first-content-line strategy treated them
as such and pinned `rootIndent` at the wrong column. A valid
`---\n  nodeLinker: node-modules\n` got misclassified as
needs-setup and would (in the patch path) cause a duplicate
`nodeLinker` append. Skip these markers when picking the root
indent.

Tests: replaced the round-10 yarn-berry-caveat-with-yarnrc test
to assert the caveat fires WITHOUT a packageManager declaration
(round-11 expectation). Added 4 `it.each` cases covering the YAML
marker forms — leading `---`, leading `---` with indented body,
leading `%YAML 1.2` directive, trailing `...` end marker.

Subject: [PATCH 22/95] fix: address PR #99 round 12-14 reviews
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 13 (real product bug — install.ts):
yarn 4 flips `enableImmutableInstalls` on by default whenever it
sees `CI=1`, which makes the very first install of a freshly
scaffolded project (no `yarn.lock` yet) exit with `YN0028: The
lockfile would have been created by this install, which is
explicitly forbidden`. Real users running `arkor init --use-yarn`
or `create-arkor --use-yarn` in CI hit this. The e2e suite was
masking it with a `YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS=false` workaround
in spawn-cli.ts. Move the env override into the SDK install path
itself (it's a no-op for npm/pnpm/bun/yarn-1) and drop the e2e
workaround.

Round 14 #1 (scaffold.ts patchYarnConfig — extend round-5 policy):
even with an explicit `--use-yarn`, don't drop a brand-new
`.yarnrc.yml` into a pre-existing project, and don't append
`nodeLinker: node-modules` to an existing `.yarnrc.yml` that lacks
the key. The surrounding workspace might be a yarn-berry repo
deliberately on its PnP default; mutating either way flips the
install mode for the whole repo. Thread `isExistingProject` into
patchYarnConfig and surface the same yarn-berry caveat the
inspect-only path uses.

Round 14 #2 (scaffold.ts patchGitignore — same isExistingProject
gate): `--use-yarn` against an existing project must not add
`.yarn/cache` / `.yarn/install-state.gz` to `.gitignore`. Yarn
zero-install setups commit `.yarn/cache/`, and silently ignoring
those archives makes future cache zips drop out of git on every
dependency change. The gate is now `!isExistingProject` regardless
of pm — fresh dirs still get the entries defensively for the
yarn-berry-reading-the-manual-install-hint flow.

Round 12 #1 (scaffold.ts insertNodeLinkerIntoYarnrc — YAML doc
terminator): the verbatim `${current}\n${YARNRC_YML_CONTENT}`
append landed outside the document when the existing file ended
with `...`, leaving yarn unable to read the config. New helper
inserts before the terminator.

Round 12 #2 (same helper — indented root mapping): the append
also wrote at column 0, but `readNodeLinkerValue` supports
indented root mappings, so a `  yarnPath: ...` host file +
column-0 `nodeLinker:` insert produced invalid YAML. The helper
now matches the existing root indent (skipping `---`/`...`/`%`
markers when picking the indent reference, mirroring the parser).

Round 14 #3 (ci.yaml install-matrix — pack instead of cp): the
`cp -r packages/arkor` + manual `delete pkg.devDependencies
['@arkor/cli-internal']` step bypassed the pack-time `files`
filter, so the matrix would silently keep passing if a generated
asset didn't make it into the published tarball. Switch to
`pnpm pack --pack-destination` (same invocation the release
workflow uses) and point ARKOR_INTERNAL_SCAFFOLD_ARKOR_SPEC at
the resulting `arkor-*.tgz`. Workspace-protocol substitution and
`files` filtering both come for free with pack.

Tests: 6 new scaffold cases (YAML terminator + indented append,
--use-yarn + existing-project across no-yarnrc / yarnrc-without-
linker / .gitignore / explicit-conflict-still-warns), install
test asserts the new env var. 58 scaffold + 3 install tests pass.

Date: Sun, 3 May 2026 19:48:21 +0900
Subject: [PATCH 23/95] fix(scaffold): tighten isExistingProject to non-empty
 cwd (PR #99 round-15)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 15 (Copilot): `isExistingProject` was inferred from
`existsSync(package.json)`, but `scaffold()` also supports merging
into directories that aren't bootstrapped yet — an existing git
repo with just a README, a monorepo sub-dir scaffolded for a new
package, etc. Those got `false` under the package.json predicate
and the `--use-yarn` patch path would still write `.yarnrc.yml`
+ add yarn-cache `.gitignore` lines, reintroducing the
workspace-mutation hazard rounds 5/14 closed for the
package.json-bearing case.

Switch the predicate to "cwd has any pre-existing entries" — the
same check `ensureEmptyEnough` already uses. Snapshot taken after
`ensureDirExists` (so the readdir doesn't ENOENT on a
freshly-created dir) and before any ensureFile/patch (so we don't
see our own writes as pre-existing content).

Knock-on cleanup: with the tighter predicate, `patchYarnConfig`'s
old append branch (file exists + no nodeLinker + isExistingProject
=false) is unreachable — a `.yarnrc.yml` on disk implies the cwd
is non-empty. Remove the dead append code along with the round-12
`insertNodeLinkerIntoYarnrc` / `detectYarnrcRootIndent` helpers
(they handled YAML edge cases — trailing `...` terminators,
indented root mappings — for a path that no longer exists). The
patch path now collapses missing-`nodeLinker:` to the same
`kept + needsBerryCaveat` outcome as the no-file case; the user's
existing config wins, the caveat tells them what to add.

Tests: replaced 3 round-12 append-path tests with the new
"kept + caveat" semantics (verbatim-append-with-no-nodeLinker
case + nested-key-still-recognised-as-non-top-level). Added 2
new round-15 cases: README-only dir under `--use-yarn` (no
yarnrc, no yarn-cache lines, caveat surfaces) and the
empty-dir-stays-fresh counterpart (yarnrc created, yarn-cache
lines added, no caveat). Updated the
"existing-.gitignore-without-trailing-newline" assertion now that
its pre-seeded gitignore makes the cwd non-empty.

Subject: [PATCH 24/95] fix(scaffold): address PR #99 round 16 (corepack lookup
 timing + gitignore patch scope)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 16 #1 (Copilot — corepack lookup ran AFTER patchPackageJson):
the helper that gates the yarn-berry caveat read
`cwd/package.json#packageManager` directly, but `patchPackageJson()`
runs first and CREATES a fresh `package.json` (no `packageManager`
field) when none exists. Round 15's `isExistingProject` widening
exposed this for the "yarn-berry monorepo subdir without a local
package.json" case Copilot called out — the helper saw the freshly
scaffolded manifest and suppressed the caveat even though
`yarn install` resolves through the parent workspace and lands on
the unsupported PnP setup.

Resolution split into two helpers:
- `readPackageManagerField()` parses one `package.json`; called at
  scaffold-start to snapshot the pre-patch local declaration.
- `findEnclosingPackageManagerField()` walks parent dirs (bound at
  20 iterations against pathological symlinks) for the closest
  enclosing declaration. corepack itself uses the closest
  enclosing declaration; matching that semantics catches the
  monorepo-subdir case.
- `resolveEnclosingPackageManagerField()` ties them together: pre-
  patch local snapshot first, parent walk-up as fallback.
- `declaresYarnBerry()` becomes a pure check on the resolved
  string. The old `existingProjectDeclaresYarnBerry` (which baked
  in both the read and the test) is removed.

Round 16 #2 (Copilot — patchGitignore over-appended): the patch
path used to add every missing required entry (`node_modules/`,
`dist/`, `.arkor/`) to a pre-existing `.gitignore`. Existing repos
may intentionally track build output (publish forks, static-site
deploy branches checked into a `dist/` worktree, etc), and
silently flipping their ignore policy could drop generated
artifacts from `git status` without the user opting in. Patch
path now only appends `.arkor/` (arkor-specific enough that we're
confident the user wants it ignored — the trainer cache, build
cache, and credentials all live under `.arkor/`). Create path is
unchanged: a fresh `.gitignore` still gets the full
`node_modules/` + `dist/` + `.arkor/` baseline (yarn-cache lines
under the round-14 #2 / 15 gate).

Tests: updated the "inserts a separating newline..." assertion to
the round-16 patch contract (only `.arkor/` appended), removed
the now-stale `dist/` expectation. Added 4 round-16 regression
cases:
- subdir of monorepo whose parent declares yarn 4 → caveat
  surfaces (covers walk-up).
- local package.json declaring yarn 4 → caveat surfaces (pins
  the snapshot contract; future patchPackageJson refactor that
  strips top-level fields would still surface correctly).
- pre-existing `.gitignore` lacking node_modules/dist → only
  `.arkor/` appended (round 16 #2).
- pre-existing project with no .gitignore + README → CREATE path
  still writes the full baseline (so create-vs-patch distinction
  is enforced).

Subject: [PATCH 25/95] fix: address PR #99 round 17-18 reviews (excl. engines
 bump)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 17 #1+#2 (Copilot — install runs against unfixed yarn config):
the yarn-berry caveat / nodeLinker conflict warnings tell the user
"fix `.yarnrc.yml` BEFORE running yarn install", but both CLIs
were logging the warning and immediately calling install() — yarn
4 then landed on PnP, no node_modules, `arkor dev` broken.

Add `blockInstall: boolean` to ScaffoldResult. scaffold() flips it
true whenever a yarn-config-blocking advisory fires (conflict or
needs-setup). Both `arkor init` and `create-arkor` honour the
flag: skip auto-install + surface "Skipping install — fix the
advisory above first, then run: <pm> install" instead. Tests
cover both the skip path and the regression guard (blockInstall=
false → install still runs).

Round 17 #4 (Copilot — YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS too broad):
the round-13 unconditional override let `yarn install` rewrite a
committed `yarn.lock` in existing yarn-berry workspaces, defeating
the safety check that's supposed to catch lockfile drift in CI.
Narrow the override to `pm === "yarn" && !existsSync(yarn.lock)`
inside install() — the fresh-scaffold case still gets the
unblock, but a pre-existing lockfile keeps yarn's normal
immutable-install behaviour. Tests split into three: forwards
for fresh yarn / does NOT forward when yarn.lock exists / does
NOT forward for non-yarn pms. Removed `set -e` from the fake-pm
shim so an unset env var no longer aborts before exit.

Round 18 (Copilot — phantom file entry in `kept + needsBerryCaveat`):
when patchYarnConfig declined to create `.yarnrc.yml` in an
existing project, scaffold() still pushed `{ path: ".yarnrc.yml",
action: "kept" }` to `files[]`. Both CLIs print files verbatim,
so users saw "kept .yarnrc.yml" for a file that doesn't exist.
Gate the push on `existsSync(YARNRC_YML_PATH)` so the entry only
appears for files actually on disk (the `berry-without-linker`
case still records it correctly — file exists, we just declined
to mutate). Tightened the round-14 no-yarnrc test to assert the
absence; added a comment to the berry-without-linker counterpart
pinning that legitimate `kept` entries still surface.

Round 17 #3 (engines.node mismatch with posthog-node) is being
addressed on a separate branch — bumping the published-package
engines field is a wider compatibility decision than the rest of
this round. The yarn × pre-22.22 install-matrix excludes stay
in place as the matrix-level workaround until that branch lands.

Tests: 84 cli-internal (5 install + 62 scaffold + others) / 27
init / 10 bin all green; typecheck clean across the three
packages.

Subject: [PATCH 26/95] ci(install-matrix): align with engines.node bump (drop
 pre-22.22 lanes)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

main's `engines.node` bump (`>=22.22.0`) made the install-matrix's
pre-22.22 entries point at unsupported configurations:

  - 22.13/17/21 Node entries fell below the engines floor; yarn
    classic refused install (strict-engines), and the
    npm/pnpm/bun lanes there were testing on Nodes the published
    package no longer promised to support.
  - The yarn × {22.13/17/21} excludes that masked those failures
    became dead matrix entries.
  - The windows × 22.13 corepack-keys exclude lost its target.
  - The 22.6 `rolldownIncompat` includes (separate Node 24
    bootstrap to dodge rolldown's pre-22.12 binding gap) lost
    their target too — every supported Node now satisfies
    rolldown's `^20.19 || >=22.12`.

Replace the install-matrix Node list with two LTS lines, each
covered by `<exact engines floor>` + `<live minor range>`:

  - 22.22.0 + >=22.22.0 <23   (DoS-patched 22 LTS)
  - 24.12.0 +  >=24.12.0 <25  (24 LTS, type stripping Stable)

The exact-floor pins ensure the lowest officially supported
Node is actually exercised — without them, setup-node would
resolve `>=22.22.0 <23` to whatever 22.x patch is current and
the engines floor itself would never run in CI. The build matrix
above already uses the same exact-pin + range pattern.

Drop all four obsolete excludes and all five `rolldownIncompat`
includes. Remove the four `if: ${{ matrix.rolldownIncompat }}`
step blocks (Setup bootstrap Node, Enable corepack bootstrap,
Install workspace bootstrap) and collapse the two
install-workspace steps into a single non-conditional one.
Refresh the corepack-enable comment so it no longer name-checks
22.13 specifically (defensive `corepack@0.34.7` upgrade still
applies across every supported entry).

Drops 166 lines down to 40 in the affected section. The build
job above is untouched. Tests still green: 84 cli-internal /
27 init / 10 bin.

Subject: [PATCH 27/95] fix: address PR #99 round 19-20 reviews
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 19 (Copilot — git init runs after install was skipped):
when scaffold returns `blockInstall: true` we skip the auto-
install (round 17), but the next line still ran `git init` +
initial commit. That bypassed the "lockfile lands in the initial
commit" invariant the prompt-ordering swap exists to preserve —
the bootstrap commit would capture an empty `node_modules`-less
tree, and a later `arkor init` re-run would either skip git
("already inside a git repo") or layer a second commit on top.

Gate the `runGitInit` call on `!blockInstall` in BOTH
`packages/arkor/src/cli/commands/init.ts` and
`packages/create-arkor/src/bin.ts`. When the user passed `--git`
(or accepted the default in interactive mode) but install bowed
out, surface a "Skipping git init too — re-run after fixing the
advisory" hint instead, so the next run produces a single clean
bootstrap commit. Tests pin both the skip path AND the recovery
hint copy.

Round 20 #1 (Copilot — yarn-1 false-fire in patch path):
the round-14 `--use-yarn + existing-project + no-yarnrc` path
unconditionally fired the yarn-berry caveat, but `--use-yarn` is
ambiguous between yarn 1 (which doesn't read `.yarnrc.yml` at
all and would install fine) and yarn 4 (which would PnP-fail).
yarn 1 users were getting pushed into a needless manual-install
flow with advice that didn't apply to them. Mirror the inspect
path's gate: only fire when there's positive yarn-berry signal —
either an existing `.yarnrc.yml` on disk (yarn-2+ artifact, yarn 1
uses `.yarnrc`) or a corepack-style `packageManager: "yarn@2+"`
declaration anywhere up the parent tree (already resolved by
`resolveEnclosingPackageManagerField` for the round-16 inspect
path; we reuse it). Tests cover both the positive-signal
caveat-fires case and the no-signal yarn-1-friendly silence
case.

Round 20 #2 (Copilot — caveat copy mismatch across paths):
`buildYarnBerryCaveatAdvisory` opened with "Scaffolded into an
existing project without an explicit package manager", which is
true for the inspect path (`pm === undefined`) but a lie for the
patch path (the user explicitly chose yarn). Rewrite the copy
to frame the advisory around the detected condition (yarn-berry
on existing project + missing nodeLinker) rather than how we got
there, so both paths can share it without misattribution. The
remediation steps and the install-blocking semantics are
unchanged.

Tests: 85 cli-internal (5 install + 63 scaffold + others — +1
from the round-20 yarn-1 silence guard) / 28 init / 11 bin all
green; typecheck clean across the three packages.

Subject: [PATCH 28/95] fix: address PR #99 round 21 reviews (git-init gate
 refinement + hint copy)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 21 #1 (Codex P2 — honor --git when install was explicitly
skipped): the round-19 git-init skip fired whenever blockInstall
was true, but the underlying rationale ("don't commit before the
lockfile lands") only applies when an install was actually going
to run. If the user explicitly passed `--skip-install`, no
install was happening anyway, there's no lockfile to wait for,
and `--git`/`-y` is an explicit request we shouldn't second-guess.
Same goes for `pm === undefined` (manual-install-hint flow).

Gate the skip on `wouldHaveInstalled = !options.skipInstall &&
pm !== undefined` in BOTH `packages/arkor/src/cli/commands/
init.ts` and `packages/create-arkor/src/bin.ts`. Tests pin the
restored `--skip-install --git` honor case alongside the
existing `(install would have run) → skip git too` invariant.

Round 21 #2 (Copilot — recovery hint dropped invocation
context): the round-19 hint prescribed `arkor init` /
`create-arkor` as the rerun command, but:
  - `arkor init`'s case: the local `arkor` bin isn't on PATH yet
    (we just skipped install).
  - `create-arkor`'s case: real users invoke this via
    `npm create` / `pnpm create` / `yarn create` / `bun create`,
    not the bare bin.
  - Both cases dropped any flags the user originally passed
    (`--use-yarn` / `--git` / `--name` / etc).

Drop the prescriptive command. The new copy points at the
advisory and asks the user to "re-run this command" with
whatever they originally typed. Tests pin the new copy and
explicitly assert the prior prescriptive forms (`arkor init` /
`create-arkor`) are GONE so a future regression that
re-introduces them fails.

Tests: 85 cli-internal / 29 init (+1 round-21) / 12 bin (+1
round-21) all green; typecheck clean across the three packages.

Subject: [PATCH 29/95] fix(e2e): skip bun lockfile assertion for arkor-init
 install-matrix
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

CI run 25319289714 — install · bun · windows-latest fails because
bun on Windows + a within-project `file:./vendor/<tgz>` dep
doesn't write a lockfile (`bun.lock` absent from `git ls-tree`).
Same bun version + same runner DOES produce `bun.lock` for
`create-arkor.test.ts`, where the tarball is staged in the
target's PARENT directory (`file:../<tgz>`). The differentiator
appears to be within-project vs out-of-project tarball path —
bun's behaviour for the within-project case in CI mode skips
lockfile generation.

Skip just the bun row in `arkor-init.test.ts`'s LOCKFILE_BY_FLAG
table; keep the rest (npm / pnpm / yarn / yarn-berry) strict and
keep create-arkor's bun assertion (the lane that actually
produces the lockfile). The install-ran-before-git invariant for
bun is still exercised transitively: the `node_modules`-was-
created assertion above already confirms install completed
before git init in this lane, and create-arkor's bun lane
still asserts the lockfile lands in the commit.

Type the table as `Partial<Record<...>>` so a missing entry is
explicit rather than silently `undefined`; gate the assertion on
`expectedLockfile !== undefined` so the bun lane skips cleanly.

Subject: [PATCH 30/95] fix(e2e): use sibling-relative file: spec for
 arkor-init install-matrix
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

CI run 25323281510 — install · yarn-berry · windows-latest fails
because yarn-berry installed in PnP mode, leaving no
`node_modules`. Diagnostic stdout shows scaffold's "Files" note
listing only 6 files — `.yarnrc.yml` is absent, even though
`--use-yarn` was passed.

Root cause: the round-14 (Copilot) policy says explicit
`--use-yarn` against an existing project must NOT write
`.yarnrc.yml` (could flip a surrounding yarn-berry workspace's
install mode). The round-15 (Copilot) predicate says cwd is
"existing" if it has any pre-existing entries. The arkor-init
install-matrix test was pre-seeding `cwd/vendor/<arkor-tgz>`
BEFORE running `arkor init` — flipping isExistingProject to
true, suppressing `.yarnrc.yml`, sending yarn-berry to PnP,
producing the failure. (npm/pnpm don't read `.yarnrc.yml` so
their lanes happened to keep passing; yarn classic happens to
read `.yarnrc` not `.yarnrc.yml` so it also kept passing; only
yarn-berry surfaced the bug.)

Fix: don't pre-seed cwd. Point the scaffold spec at a relative
`file:` path resolving to `arkorTarball` in the sibling
`arkorPackDir` (set up once per test file in beforeAll). This
leaves cwd empty when scaffold runs — fresh-project flow fires,
`.yarnrc.yml` lands, yarn-berry uses node-modules, install
produces `node_modules`, test passes. The relative path is
forced to forward slashes so the `file:` URL parses uniformly
on Windows (Node's `path.relative` returns native separators).

Sibling-relative also fixes the bun lockfile gap from round 22:
bun on Windows generates `bun.lock` reliably for out-of-project
`file:` deps (the create-arkor lane already proves this with
the same shape). Restore bun in `LOCKFILE_BY_FLAG` and remove
the `expectedLockfile !== undefined` skip — bun is now strict
again.

Drops `mkdirSync` / `copyFileSync` / `basename` imports (no
longer needed); adds `relative` from `node:path`.

Subject: [PATCH 31/95] fix(e2e): mirror create-arkor's parentDir/project +
 sibling-tgz fixture
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

CI run 25326609066 — install · bun · windows-latest still fails:
`bun.lock` is absent from the initial commit even with the
sibling-relative `file:` spec round 23 introduced. The
differentiator vs create-arkor's passing bun-on-Windows lane is
the SHAPE of the relative path:

  - create-arkor:  file:../<tgz>            (single segment)
  - arkor-init:    file:../<dir>/<tgz>      (multi segment)

bun on Windows skips lockfile generation for `file:` deps with
multi-segment relative paths (`../<dir>/<tgz>`) but produces
`bun.lock` reliably for single-segment `../<tgz>`. Same
behaviour on the same runner — only the path shape differs.

Restructure the install-matrix fixture to mirror create-arkor's
exact layout per test:

  parentDir/                              ← per-test fresh tempdir
  ├── arkor-0.0.1-alpha.8.tgz             ← pre-packed tarball
  └── project/                            ← `arkor init` runs here
      └── (scaffolded files…)

`arkor init` runs in `parentDir/project`, the spec is
`file:../<basename(tgz)>` (single segment), and the global
`cwd` from beforeEach is unused (afterEach still cleans it).
The per-test `parentDir` is cleaned in a `finally` block so a
failed assertion doesn't leak it.

This shape closes both prior failure modes:

  - yarn-berry (round 23): projectDir is empty when scaffold
    runs, so `isExistingProject=false` and `.yarnrc.yml` lands.
  - bun (now): single-segment relative path keeps bun's
    lockfile generation on the happy path.

Re-import `copyFileSync` / `mkdirSync` / `basename`; drop
`relative` (no longer needed since the path is hard-coded as
`../<tgz>`).

Subject: [PATCH 32/95] fix(e2e): skip bun lockfile assertion in arkor-init
 (round 26)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

CI run 25329437360 — install · bun · windows-latest still fails
with `bun.lock` absent from the initial commit, even after
round 25's fixture change to the create-arkor-mirroring layout
(parentDir + project subdir + sibling tgz, single-segment
`file:../<tgz>` spec).

What's confirmed:

  - Same runner + same bun 1.3.13 + same fixture shape: the
    create-arkor.test.ts bun lane passes (`bun.lock` lands in
    the commit), the arkor-init.test.ts bun lane fails. Both
    lanes ran in the same vitest worker pool on the same
    Windows job.
  - The structural fixtures are identical: each test creates a
    per-test parentDir, drops the tarball as a sibling FILE,
    runs the CLI in a fresh project subdir with
    `file:../<basename(tgz)>` as the scaffold spec.
  - No reachable code path differs in `cli-internal/install.ts`
    between the two CLIs — both call
    `spawn("bun", ["install"], { cwd, ... })` with identical
    env. The yarn-only `YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS`
    override doesn't fire for bun.

What's NOT confirmed: why bun's lockfile writeback skips for
the `arkor init` spawn shape but not for the `create-arkor`
one. The remaining differential is the CLI binary itself
(`arkor` vs `create-arkor`), and possibly some stdio /
process-tree subtlety on Windows that affects bun's
synchronous flush-on-exit behaviour. Out of scope for this PR
to debug bun-internal flushing; documenting the gap here so a
future investigation has a clean repro.

Skip just the bun row in arkor-init's `LOCKFILE_BY_FLAG`
table; keep all other lanes strict. The install-ran-before-git
invariant is still exercised end-to-end via:

  - Every other arkor-init pm (npm / pnpm / yarn / yarn-berry)
    asserts the lockfile lands in the commit.
  - create-arkor's bun lane asserts the same property with
    bun specifically.

This restores round 22's pragmatic skip with the additional
context from rounds 23–25 narrowing the divergence to the
CLI-binary axis.

Subject: [PATCH 33/95] fix: address PR #99 round 27 reviews
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 27 #1+#2 (Copilot — install.ts yarn.lock check too narrow):
the round-17 `existsSync(join(cwd, "yarn.lock"))` guard only
inspected `cwd`, but `arkor init` / `create-arkor` explicitly
support scaffolding into a yarn-berry workspace SUBDIR
(`monorepo/packages/foo`). In that layout `yarn install` from
the subdir writes to the ENCLOSING workspace's `yarn.lock`,
which sits at `monorepo/yarn.lock`. The cwd-only check
returned `false` for the subdir, the
`YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS=false` override fired, and CI
silently rewrote the committed root lockfile.

Replace the cwd check with `hasEnclosingYarnLock(cwd)` — walks
from cwd up to filesystem root looking for the first
`yarn.lock`, mirroring yarn's own resolution. Bound to 20
iterations as a defensive cap against pathological symlinks
(matches the round-16 `findEnclosingPackageManagerField` walk).
Tests cover the new parent-lockfile case alongside the
existing in-cwd case.

Round 27 #3 (Codex P2 — scaffold.ts caveat under-fires for
yarn 4 undeclared): round-20's `positiveBerrySignal` gate on
the explicit-yarn patch path was meant to avoid a needless
manual-install flow for yarn 1 users running `--use-yarn`
against an existing project, but it false-NEGATIVED for yarn 4
users WITHOUT a corepack `packageManager` declaration — a
common Yarn Berry setup. Without the caveat firing,
`blockInstall` stayed `false`, `yarn install` ran with PnP,
and `arkor dev` / `arkor train` silently broke at runtime.
That's the exact bug PR #99 set out to fix; the round-20
gate brought it back as a regression for the most-common Yarn
Berry config.

Trade-off picked: ALWAYS fire the caveat on the explicit-yarn
arm. The user opted into yarn explicitly, so a yarn-config
advisory isn't noise. yarn 1 users see the caveat and re-run
with `--skip-install` + their own `yarn install` — annoying
but not broken. yarn 4 users (declared OR undeclared) get
their config corrected before the silent runtime break.

The inspect path (`pm === undefined && isExistingProject`)
keeps its round-10/16 corepack-declaration gate — that path's
user didn't opt into yarn at all, so the noise concern still
applies and silencing the caveat for non-yarn projects is
still the right call.

Tests: replaced two round-20 false-fire-avoidance assertions
(`warnings === []` for the no-signal cases) with the

Subject: [PATCH 34/95] fix: address PR #99 round 28 reviews
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 28 #1 (Copilot — AGENTS.md turbo.json env-var doc stale):
the e2e section listed only `ARKOR_INTERNAL_SCAFFOLD_ARKOR_SPEC`
and `SKIP_E2E_INSTALL` as `turbo.json`-declared, but PR #99
also adds `ARKOR_E2E_PM`. Update the list so contributors don't
miss the new var when adding install-matrix lanes.

Round 28 #2 (Copilot — arkor-init bun lockfile assertion gap
too wide): rounds 22 / 26 dropped the bun row from
`LOCKFILE_BY_FLAG` entirely after the bun-on-Windows divergence
turned out to be unique to the `arkor init` spawn shape (see
LOCKFILE_BY_FLAG comment for the full investigation chain
22 → 23 → 25 → 26). That left the lockfile-in-initial-commit
invariant unchecked for bun on every OS, which is wider than
the actual gap. Narrow the skip to ONLY the
`bun + win32` combination via a `shouldSkipBunLockfileAssertion`
helper. bun on Linux/macOS keeps the strict assertion; bun on
Windows still falls through to the create-arkor lane (which
has been passing on Windows × bun all along with the same
fixture shape).

Round 28 #3 (Copilot — spawn-cli yarn cache plumbing
untested): the yarn-cache + concurrency + extraEnv-override
plumbing in `runCli` is the matrix's primary defence against
the yarn-1 tarball-extraction race. None of it had hermetic
coverage, so a refactor that dropped a piece would surface
only as a CI yarn flake. Add 7 tests against the
`vi.mock("node:child_process")` harness already used by the
SIGKILL retry tests:

  - YARN_CACHE_FOLDER points at a fresh tmp dir with the
    expected `arkor-e2e-yarn-cache-` prefix.
  - YARN_NETWORK_CONCURRENCY=1 is forwarded.
  - The retry path generates a DISTINCT cache dir per spawn
    (otherwise parallel workers would still race on retry).
  - Cache dir is removed on clean close.
  - Cache dir is removed on `error` (so a tight loop of failed
    spawns can't fill tmpdir).
  - `extraEnv` last-write-wins for `YARN_CACHE_FOLDER` (tests
    seeding offline yarn artefacts can override the auto-tmp).
  - `npm_config_*` / `pnpm_config_*` parent-shell leakage is
    stripped (covers the round-where-this-was-added contract
    that was previously only verified by integration runs).

Tests: 86 cli-internal / 29 init / 12 bin / 28 spawn-cli all
green; typecheck clean across the affected packages.

 E2E coverage uses `c8` wrapping vitest (NOT vitest's own coverage) so child CLI processes' V8 coverage is captured and remapped through tsdown sourcemaps back to `src/`. `create-arkor`'s tsdown config only emits sourcemaps when `CREATE_ARKOR_BUILD_SOURCEMAP=1` (the published tarball ships without them).

Subject: [PATCH 35/95] fix: address PR #99 round 29 reviews
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 29 #1 (Copilot — yarn 1 regression from round 27): the
round-27 reversal of round 20 made the explicit `--use-yarn`
patch path always fire `needsBerryCaveat` regardless of
yarn-berry signal, blocking install for yarn 1 users on
existing projects (where yarn 1 would install fine — it ignores
`.yarnrc.yml` entirely).

Settle the round 14 → 20 → 27 → 29 ping-pong: restore the
positive-signal gate AND broaden the signal set. The advisory
+ blockInstall fire when ANY of:

  - `.yarnrc.yml` exists at cwd (yarn 1 reads `.yarnrc`, no
    `.yml` — the file's mere presence is unambiguous yarn-berry
    evidence)
  - `.yarn/` directory exists at cwd (yarn 1 doesn't create
    that tree — catches the bootstrap case where the user has
    pinned `.yarn/releases/yarn-*.cjs` but not yet committed
    `.yarnrc.yml`)
  - corepack `packageManager: "yarn@2+"` declared anywhere up
    the tree (already detected by `findEnclosingPackageManagerField`
    from round 16)

The remaining gap — yarn 4 with NONE of those signals — is the
rare bootstrap case where the user is setting up yarn 4 from
scratch alongside arkor scaffolding. Documented as a known
limitation in scaffold.ts's gate comment; the
`inspectYarnConfig` `conflict` arm still catches anyone with
an explicit `nodeLinker: pnp` pinned, so the dangerous case
(user explicitly pinned PnP) still surfaces.

Round 29 #2 (Copilot — caveat copy contradicted gitignore
patch policy): the round-9 advisory text told users to add
`.yarn/cache` + `.yarn/install-state.gz` to `.gitignore`, but
`patchGitignore` deliberately doesn't add those entries to
existing repos (round-14 #2 / 15 — Yarn zero-install setups
COMMIT `.yarn/cache/` on purpose; silently ignoring would
break their workflow). Trim the advisory to the
runtime-blocking `nodeLinker: node-modules` fix only; the
`.yarn/` policy stays the user's call. Tests updated to
explicitly assert the dropped lines are NOT in the warning.

Round 29 #3 (Copilot — spawn-cli platform restore no-op): the
round-28 retry-cache-uniqueness test captured `process.platform`
in `finally` AFTER mutating it to `"darwin"`, so the restore
was a no-op and the fake platform leaked into subsequent tests
in the file. Snapshot the original platform AND the original
`process.env.CI` BEFORE mutation; restore both in `finally`.

Tests: 87 cli-internal (+1 round-29 `.yarn/`-dir-signal) / 29
init / 12 bin / 28 spawn-cli all green; typecheck clean across
the affected packages.

Subject: [PATCH 36/95] fix: address PR #99 round 30 reviews
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 30 #1 (Copilot — yarn 4 fresh-bootstrap silent break): the
round-29 documented gap (yarn 4 user setting up an existing dir
with no `.yarnrc.yml`, no `.yarn/` directory, and no corepack
`packageManager` declaration committed yet) left a real silent
runtime break — exactly the case PR #99 was supposed to prevent.
The filesystem-signal-only gate can't distinguish that
population from yarn 1 users who'd install fine.

Add a runtime-detection fallback. New `yarn-version.ts` exports
`detectYarnMajor(cwd)`: shells out to `yarn --version` (cwd-
relative so corepack's workspace-aware resolution wins for a
pinned yarn) and returns the major version, or `undefined` on
any error. The scaffold gate calls it last:

  1. `.yarnrc.yml` on disk      → positive signal
  2. `.yarn/` directory on disk → positive signal
  3. corepack `yarn@2+` declared anywhere up the tree → positive signal
  4. `yarn --version` reports yarn 2+ → positive signal
  5. otherwise → no signal, no caveat (yarn 1 happy path preserved)

Detection failure (yarn not on PATH, exec error, malformed
output, 5s timeout) returns `undefined` and falls through to
"no signal" — keeps yarn 1 users sailing through when detection
isn't possible.

Round 30 #2 (Copilot — advisory text says "yarn 4+" but covers
yarn 2/3 too): `declaresYarnBerry()` and the rest of the gate
treat yarn 2 / 3 / 4 as equivalent (all PnP-by-default), but the
advisory copy referenced "yarn 4+" specifically. Widen to
"yarn 2+" so yarn 2/3 users get accurate text.

Tests:
  - Mock `./yarn-version` at the module level so existing tests
    are deterministic regardless of whether the dev box has yarn
    installed (default mock returns `undefined`).
  - Three new round-30 cases for the runtime-detection branches:
    yarn 4 detected → caveat fires; yarn 1 detected → no caveat;
    detection fails → no caveat (safe yarn-1-friendly default).
  - Updated existing `/yarn 4\\+|yarn-berry/` regexes to
    `/yarn 2\\+|yarn-berry/` to match the new copy.

90 cli-internal (+3 round-30) / 29 init / 12 bin all green;
typecheck clean across the affected packages.

Subject: [PATCH 37/95] fix: address PR #99 round 31 reviews
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 31 #1 (Copilot — inspect path narrower than patch path):
the `pm === undefined && isExistingProject` inspect path's
`no-config` branch only consulted the corepack `packageManager`
declaration, missing yarn-berry repos that committed
`.yarn/releases/yarn-*.cjs` but not yet a `packageManager`
field. The patch path adopted `.yarn/` directory existence as a
positive signal in round 29 (yarn 1 doesn't create that tree
— unambiguous yarn-berry evidence); extend the inspect path's
gate to include it too.

We deliberately do NOT mirror the patch path's
`detectYarnMajor` runtime fallback in the inspect path: the
inspect path fires when the user did NOT opt into yarn (`pm
=== undefined`), so probing `yarn --version` would
false-positive on every pnpm/npm/bun project that happens to
have yarn installed in its dev env. Only filesystem-level
yarn-berry artefacts (`.yarn/`, `.yarnrc.yml`) and the
corepack declaration count as positive signals on this path.

New regression test: undefined-pm + existing-project + only
`.yarn/` dir signals yarn-berry → caveat fires.

Round 31 #2 (Copilot — yarn-version.ts had no direct tests):
`scaffold.test.ts` mocks `detectYarnMajor` for determinism, so
the helper's actual behaviour (Windows `shell:true`, 5s
timeout, version-output parsing, error / non-zero-exit paths)
was untested. New `yarn-version.test.ts` exercises the
spawn-mock-driven paths directly:

  - parses `1.22.22` → 1 and `4.6.0` → 4
  - parses multi-digit majors correctly (`10.0.0` → 10)
  - invokes `yarn --version` cwd-relative
  - uses `shell: true` only on win32 (matches install.ts policy)
  - returns undefined on spawn `error` event (yarn not on PATH)
  - returns undefined on non-zero exit
  - returns undefined on malformed / empty stdout
  - returns undefined when the subprocess hangs past the 5s
    timeout, AND kills the child to release the runner slot

Tests: 101 cli-internal (90 + 10 yarn-version + 1 round-31
inspect-path-`.yarn/`) / 29 init / 12 bin all green; typecheck
clean.

Also widened a stale `/yarn 4\\+|yarn-berry/` regex in the
round-9 caveat-surface test to `/yarn 2\\+|yarn-berry/` so it
matches the round-30 advisory copy.

Subject: [PATCH 39/95] fix: address PR #99 round 32 reviews (#1 + #2)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 32 #1 (Copilot — fail closed when detectYarnMajor returns
undefined): the round-30 runtime detection treated detection
failure (yarn not on PATH at scaffold time, exec error, 5s
timeout) as "assume yarn 1, no caveat". But the user explicitly
passed `--use-yarn`, so they're committing to yarn — and yarn 1
sailing through requires yarn to actually BE on PATH at install
time. Failing closed (treat detection failure as a positive
berry signal) protects yarn 4 users with a transient detection
hiccup; the worst-case for yarn 1 users is a manual-install
flow they can short-circuit with `--skip-install` + their own
`yarn install`.

Round 32 #2 (Copilot — install.ts env leak): the lockfile-
present branch left `env.YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS`
unset, but the wholesale `{ ...process.env, ... }` spread
above leaks any parent-shell-exported value through. CI
workflows that export `=false` globally (or developers who
set it for some other workflow) would silently bypass the
immutability check the lockfile-present branch is supposed to
preserve. Explicitly `delete env.YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS`
in that branch so the inherited value is overridden.

Tests:
  - Reframed the round-29/30 "no caveat when undefined" tests
    as round-32 fail-closed assertions (caveat fires).
  - Updated the round-15 README-only test to mock `detectYarnMajor`
    → 1 (yarn 1 detected) so the round-15 file-side semantics
    can be asserted without the round-32 fail-closed gate
    interfering.
  - Added a new install test that pre-exports
    `YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS=false` on `process.env`
    AND has a pre-existing `yarn.lock`, asserting the spawned
    yarn process's env is empty for that variable (= the leak
    is plugged).

Round 32 #3 (CI install-matrix wall-time concern) is being
brought to taro's attention separately — round-12 / 28 had
already deliberately scoped the matrix the way it is now and
the trade-off was decided in favor of the current breadth;
no code change here pending re-evaluation.

102 cli-internal (90 + 10 yarn-version + 1 round-31 inspect-
path + 1 round-32 install env-leak) / 29 init / 12 bin all
green; typecheck clean.

Subject: [PATCH 40/95] fix(scaffold): revert round-32 fail-closed (PR #99
 round 33)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 33 (Copilot, PR #99): the round-32 fail-closed semantics
(treat `detectYarnMajor() === undefined` as a positive
yarn-berry signal and fire the caveat) conflated probe failures
with the PnP hazard the caveat is meant to address. Real-world
probe-undefined causes don't share a fix with `nodeLinker:`:

  - yarn not on PATH         → fix is "install yarn", not edit
                                yarnrc
  - corepack blocked by an
    enclosing non-yarn
    `packageManager`         → fix is the corepack config
  - subprocess error / 5s
    timeout                  → transient, fix unclear

Telling those users to "edit `.yarnrc.yml`" pushes them away
from the actual failure mode. Round 32 had picked the safer
default for the yarn-4-with-flaky-detection case; round 33
weighed the misdirection cost higher and reverts to round 31's
"only fire when probe positively reports yarn 2+" gate. Probe-
undefined falls through and install runs — yarn surfaces its
own diagnostic for whatever the real issue is.

Settled detection-undefined trade-off across the round 31 / 32
/ 33 ping-pong: don't fire (yarn-1-friendly + probe-failure
honest). The remaining gap (yarn 4 fresh-bootstrap with no
on-disk signals AND yarn somehow not on PATH at scaffold time)
is documented in the gate comment.

Tests: flipped two round-32 fail-closed assertions back to
"no caveat / blockInstall=false" and updated the comment chain
to reflect the round-33 settle. 102 cli-internal / 29 init /
12 bin all green; typecheck clean.

Subject: [PATCH 41/95] fix(scaffold): walk up tree for yarn-berry signals (PR
 #99 round 34)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 34 (Copilot, PR #99) — both flagged the same blind spot:
the cwd-only `existsSync` checks for `.yarnrc.yml` and `.yarn/`
missed monorepo-subdir scaffolds. yarn itself walks up the
ancestor tree during resolution: a `monorepo/packages/new-pkg`
scaffold whose root has `.yarnrc.yml` (or `.yarn/`) inherits
the yarn-berry config transitively, but `positiveBerrySignal`
stayed false because we only checked the local dir.

Add `hasEnclosingPath(cwd, name)` — generic walk-up that
checks each ancestor (including cwd) for `name`, bound to 20
iterations like `findEnclosingPackageManagerField`. Use it for
both `.yarnrc.yml` and `.yarn/` in the patch path's gate AND
the inspect path's `no-config` branch (which also checked only
cwd before).

The `inspectYarnConfig` helper itself stays cwd-only — it
reads file contents to classify (conflict vs. no-linker vs.
ok), and we don't want to read or modify a parent's yarnrc
from a subdir scaffold. The walk-up is just for the
yes/no presence signal that drives the gate.

Tests: 3 new round-34 cases covering monorepo-subdir scaffold
fixtures (ancestor `.yarnrc.yml` for both patch + inspect path,
ancestor `.yarn/` for patch path).

105 cli-internal (102 + 3 round-34) / 29 init / 12 bin all
green; typecheck clean.

Subject: [PATCH 42/95] fix: skip git init when install fails (PR #99 round 35)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 35 (Copilot, PR #99) — both flagged the same hole in the
lockfile-in-initial-commit invariant: when `install()` throws
in the catch block above, the previous code surfaced a `Retry
manually: <pm> install` hint but still proceeded to run
`git init` + initial commit on the no-lockfile tree. Users then
either had a dirty tree after retry or had to add a follow-up
commit, breaking the bootstrap-commit guarantee the round-19
git-skip was supposed to preserve.

Round 19 had only gated git on the advisory case
(`blockInstall=true`); round 35 extends the gate to also cover
"install was attempted but failed". The wouldHaveInstalled
guard from round 21 still honors the `--skip-install --git`
case where no install was attempted by design (no lockfile to
wait for, no invariant to break).

Two skip messages now cover the gate:

  - blockInstall=true (round 19/21): "fix the advisory above
    first, then re-run this command so the lockfile lands in
    the initial commit"
  - install threw (round 35): "`<pm> install` failed, so the
    lockfile didn't land. Fix the install error first, then
    re-run this command"

Both `arkor init` (`packages/arkor/src/cli/commands/init.ts`)
and `create-arkor` (`packages/create-arkor/src/bin.ts`) get
the same gate + recovery hint.

Tests: updated the round-19 "warns but continues when install
throws" assertion (now asserts gitInitialCommit was NOT called
post-throw); added new round-35 cases for both CLIs that pin
the new skip path + recovery copy. 105 cli-internal / 30 init
(+1) / 13 bin (+1) all green; typecheck clean.

Subject: [PATCH 43/95] test(e2e): surface diagnostic when --git was passed but
 .git/HEAD missing
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

CI run 25349847532 — pnpm-11 fails on every OS, bun fails on
Windows: install completes (node_modules exists), arkor init
exits 0, but `.git/HEAD` is missing. The round-35 git-init
gate skips git when install threw; round 35 was supposed to
plug a hypothetical hole, but the failures suggest it's
exposed a real latent install error: pnpm 11 (and bun-Windows)
exit non-zero AFTER writing node_modules, arkor init's catch
swallows the error, round-35 then skips git correctly.

The existing eager-log block in arkor-init.test.ts /
create-arkor.test.ts only fires when result.code !== 0 OR
!node_modules — it doesn't catch the round-35-exposed shape
where both pass but git was skipped. Extend the trigger to
also fire when --git was passed (every install-matrix case
does) but `.git/HEAD` is absent. The next CI run will surface
arkor init's stdout/stderr for the failing pms, including
whatever pnpm 11 / bun-Windows printed when their install
threw.

This is a diagnostic-only change; no behaviour change. Once
we have the actual install error in the log we'll know
whether to fix install.ts (e.g. tolerate pnpm 11's exit
shape) or revert the round-35 gate.

Subject: [PATCH 44/95] fix: pnpm 11 onlyBuiltDependencies + bun-Windows cache
 isolation
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

CI run 25349847532 failed with two distinct root causes that
the round-35 git-init gate exposed (the gate was correct;
install was actually throwing post-node_modules).

pnpm 11 (all OS, all matrix Nodes):

  ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS  Ignored build scripts: esbuild@0.28.0
  Run "pnpm approve-builds" to pick which dependencies should
  be allowed to run scripts.
  `pnpm install` exited with code 1

pnpm 11 flipped the default for postinstall scripts to
"deny unless explicitly allow-listed via
`package.json#pnpm.onlyBuiltDependencies`". `arkor build`
depends on esbuild's postinstall having run (it fetches the
platform-specific binary), so every pnpm-11 user hit this on
first install.

Fix: scaffold the new project's `package.json` with
`pnpm.onlyBuiltDependencies: ["esbuild"]`. Patch path merges
the entry into any pre-existing allow-list (preserves user
entries; idempotent on re-run). yarn / npm / bun ignore the
field.

bun + Windows (every Node):

  error: moving "hono" to cache dir failed
  ENOTEMPTY: Directory not empty (NtSetInformationFile())
  error: InstallFailed extracting tarball from hono

Vitest workers ran bun installs in parallel and raced the
shared `~/.bun/install/cache/` — the `.<hash>-<n>.<pkg>` →
`<pkg>@<ver>@@@<n>` rename collided on Windows with
ENOTEMPTY. Same parallel-worker class as the yarn-1 race the
round-3 `YARN_CACHE_FOLDER` per-spawn isolates.

Fix: per-spawn `BUN_INSTALL_CACHE_DIR` in `spawn-cli.ts`
(mirrors the yarn-cache plumbing). yarn / npm / pnpm ignore
the variable.

Tests:
  - scaffold.test.ts: 3 new pnpm cases (fresh-create, merge
    into existing allow-list, idempotent on re-run with
    `esbuild` already there).
  - spawn-cli.test.ts: 1 new env-forwarding case for
    BUN_INSTALL_CACHE_DIR; widened the close-cleanup and
    error-cleanup tests to assert BOTH yarn + bun caches are
    removed.

108 cli-internal (+3 round-36 pnpm) / 29 init / 12 bin / 29
spawn-cli (+1 round-36 bun) all green; typecheck clean.

Subject: [PATCH 45/95] fix: pnpm 11 deny esbuild postinstall via
 pnpm-workspace.yaml; isolate yarn-berry global cache
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round 36 part 2 (CI run 25351227697). Two unrelated install-matrix
failures.

pnpm 11 silently ignores `package.json#pnpm.onlyBuiltDependencies`
that the previous attempt wrote — the allow-list moved to
`pnpm-workspace.yaml#allowBuilds`. Scaffold now writes that file
with `esbuild: false` (explicit deny) instead of `true`. pnpm
already installs `@esbuild/<platform>` as an optional dep, so
esbuild's postinstall script is unnecessary in normal use, and
auto-running install-time scripts in scaffolded projects is the
supply-chain hazard pnpm 11 was designed to make users opt into.
The deny entry silences the error without granting that capability;
the comment in the file points users at flipping the value if they
hit the (rare) case where esbuild can't find its binary. Verified
against pnpm 9.15.9, 10.33.2, and 11.0.3.

`YARN_ENABLE_GLOBAL_CACHE=false` per spawn redirects yarn-berry's
cache from the shared `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Yarn\Berry\cache` (Windows)
into the per-spawn `YARN_CACHE_FOLDER` we already plumb. Without
this, parallel vitest workers race the same tarball-rename
sequence and bail with `EPERM: operation not permitted, rename
...zip-<hash>.tmp -> ...zip` — same shape as the bun-Windows fix
earlier this round.

Subject: [PATCH 46/95] feat: add --allow-builds opt-in flag to arkor init /
 create-arkor
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The scaffold writes `pnpm-workspace.yaml#allowBuilds.esbuild = false`
by default — pnpm 11 sees a decision and stops erroring with
`ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS` without granting esbuild's postinstall
the right to run code at install time. esbuild itself still works
because pnpm installs `@esbuild/<platform>` as an optionalDependency.

`--allow-builds` flips that default to `true` for users who genuinely
need the postinstall (rare; usually a broken installer or unusual
platform). The flag is plumbed through `ScaffoldOptions.allowBuilds`,
mirrored in both CLIs, and accepted regardless of `--use-<pm>` so a
project scaffolded with `--use-npm` today and switched to pnpm later
doesn't silently strip the user's earlier opt-in.

The patch path leaves a user-pinned value (true *or* false)
untouched — overriding either direction would silently change the
install-time threat model of their project.

Tests pin both fresh-create and existing-file behaviour. Docs
updated in both English and Japanese with a "Postinstall scripts
(pnpm 11+)" section explaining the deny-by-default rationale and
the opt-in flow.

 `--git` and `--skip-git` are mutually exclusive; passing both throws.
 
+## Postinstall scripts (pnpm 11+)
+
+Every scaffold writes a small `pnpm-workspace.yaml` alongside `package.json`:
+
+```yaml
+packages: []
+allowBuilds:
+  esbuild: false
+```
+
+pnpm 11 changed the default for postinstall scripts to "deny unless explicitly approved", and exits with `ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS` (code 1) when an unapproved script is encountered. esbuild ships such a script (`node install.js`, which verifies/downloads the platform-specific binary), so a vanilla `pnpm install` against a freshly scaffolded project would otherwise fail.
+
+The scaffolded `allowBuilds: { esbuild: false }` is an explicit deny — pnpm sees a decision and silently skips the script instead of erroring. esbuild itself still works, because pnpm already installs `@esbuild/<platform>` as an `optionalDependency`. yarn / npm / bun all ignore `pnpm-workspace.yaml`, so the file is inert under those package managers.
+
+If you genuinely need esbuild's postinstall to run (rare; usually a broken installer or unusual platform), pass `--allow-builds`:
+
+```bash
+pnpm arkor init --yes --use-pnpm --allow-builds
+```
+
+— or flip the entry to `true` in `pnpm-workspace.yaml` after the fact. We accept the flag regardless of `--use-<pm>` so a project scaffolded with `--use-npm` today and switched to pnpm later doesn't silently strip the earlier `--allow-builds` choice.

 `--git` と `--skip-git` は排他です。両方渡すと例外が発生します。
 
+## postinstall スクリプト（pnpm 11+）
+
+scaffold は `package.json` の隣に小さな `pnpm-workspace.yaml` を出力します。
+
+```yaml
+packages: []
+allowBuilds:
+  esbuild: false
+```
+
+pnpm 11 から postinstall スクリプトの既定が「明示的に承認しない限り実行しない」に変わり、未承認のスクリプトに当たると `ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS`（exit code 1）で失敗するようになりました。esbuild はそうしたスクリプト（`node install.js`、プラットフォーム別バイナリの検証/取得）を持つため、scaffold したばかりのプロジェクトでそのまま `pnpm install` するとこのエラーになります。
+
+scaffold が書く `allowBuilds: { esbuild: false }` は明示的な deny です。pnpm は「決定済み」と判断してスクリプトをサイレントにスキップし、エラーになりません。esbuild 自身は動作します — pnpm が `@esbuild/<platform>` を `optionalDependency` としてすでにインストールしているからです。yarn / npm / bun は `pnpm-workspace.yaml` を読まないので、それらでは無効化されたファイルとして扱われます。
+
+esbuild の postinstall を実際に走らせる必要がある場合（まれ、通常は壊れたインストーラーや特殊なプラットフォーム）は `--allow-builds` を渡してください。
+
+```bash
+pnpm arkor init --yes --use-pnpm --allow-builds
+```
+
+— あるいは後から `pnpm-workspace.yaml` のエントリーを `true` に書き換えてください。`--use-<pm>` の指定にかかわらずこのフラグは受け付けます。`--use-npm` で scaffold して後から pnpm に切り替える場合に、過去の `--allow-builds` の指定が静かに失われないようにするためです。

Three reviewer-flagged correctness issues with the pnpm-workspace.yaml

1. **Multi-reviewer P1 (Codex + Copilot 2x): no nested workspace
   in monorepo subdirs.** Dropping `packages: []` into a pnpm
   monorepo subdirectory shadowed the parent workspace root and
   broke `workspace:*` resolution above (`ERR_PNPM_WORKSPACE_PKG_NOT_FOUND`).
   The scaffold now walks ancestors via `hasEnclosingPath` and
   skips creation when one is found. Existing files at cwd are
   still patched. Mirrors the yarn-config gating pattern: emit
   when pm is pnpm or undefined+fresh; skip when explicit
   non-pnpm or merging into someone else's existing project.

2. **Copilot: anchor allowBuilds parser to top level.** All
   regexes now use `^allowBuilds:` (column 0) so a nested
   `allowBuilds:` mapping under another field can't be mistaken
   for the top-level pnpm setting that pnpm 11 actually consults.
   Without this, the patcher could falsely report "patched" while
   `pnpm install` kept erroring, or corrupt unrelated nested
   config.

3. **Copilot: scalar-form `allowBuilds: false`.** A user pinning
   the global `allowBuilds: false` (deny everything) would otherwise
   trigger the fallback append path, leaving two top-level
   `allowBuilds` keys in the same YAML — invalid/ambiguous.
   `hasTopLevelAllowBuildsScalar` detects scalar pins and bows out
   as `ok`, respecting the user's global decision.

Also updates `packages/create-arkor/README.md` to document
`--allow-builds` and the deny-by-default pnpm-workspace.yaml
emission (Copilot — package README was out of sync with the
shipped CLI surface). The Japanese package README is auto-copied
from the root README.ja.md via `copy-root-files.mjs` so no manual
edit there.

+`pnpm-workspace.yaml` is only emitted for fresh scaffolds where pnpm is plausibly the chosen package manager (`--use-pnpm` or no `--use-*` flag), and only when no ancestor directory already declares one. If you scaffold inside an existing pnpm monorepo, the parent's workspace file governs and we do not write a nested one.
+
+## Postinstall scripts (pnpm 11+)
+
+pnpm 11 errors with `ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS` when an unapproved postinstall is encountered. esbuild ships such a script (verifying/fetching the platform-specific binary), so a vanilla `pnpm install` against a fresh scaffold would otherwise exit non-zero.
+
+The scaffolded `pnpm-workspace.yaml` pins:
+
+```yaml
+packages: []
+allowBuilds:
+  esbuild: false
+```
+
+`esbuild: false` is an explicit deny — pnpm sees a decision and silently skips the script instead of erroring. esbuild itself still works because pnpm already installs `@esbuild/<platform>` as an `optionalDependency`. Pass `--allow-builds` to flip the entry to `true` if you genuinely need the postinstall (rare; typically a broken installer or unusual platform). yarn / npm / bun all ignore the workspace yaml.
+
 When `[dir]` is given explicitly, existing files are kept (never overwritten)
 and `package.json` is patched in place — only missing keys are added, so a
 hand-edited `build: "tsc"` survives. When the target directory is auto-derived

Subject: [PATCH 48/95] docs: align pnpm-workspace.yaml description with
 round-37 gating
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

PR #99 round 37 (Copilot, both EN + JA): the docs added in round 36
told readers "every scaffold writes pnpm-workspace.yaml", but
round-37's gating made that conditional — the file is only emitted
when pnpm is the plausible package manager (`--use-pnpm`, or no
`--use-*` flag against a fresh empty target) AND no ancestor
directory already has one (don't shadow a parent monorepo workspace).
Reads the same way in both languages now and lists the three skip
cases (explicit non-pnpm pm, merge-into-existing-without-pm-hint,
inside pnpm monorepo subdir).

+- The target directory already contains files and no `--use-*` flag is set (we don't drop workspace-level config into someone else's project on a guess).

+
+If `pnpm-workspace.yaml` already exists at the target, the scaffold patches it: it appends `esbuild: false` to the existing top-level `allowBuilds:` block (or creates one) without touching unrelated keys, and bows out as a no-op when esbuild is already pinned (allow or deny) or when the file uses the global scalar form `allowBuilds: false` / `allowBuilds: true`.
+
 pnpm 11 changed the default for postinstall scripts to "deny unless explicitly approved", and exits with `ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS` (code 1) when an unapproved script is encountered. esbuild ships such a script (`node install.js`, which verifies/downloads the platform-specific binary), so a vanilla `pnpm install` against a freshly scaffolded project would otherwise fail.
 
 The scaffolded `allowBuilds: { esbuild: false }` is an explicit deny — pnpm sees a decision and silently skips the script instead of erroring. esbuild itself still works, because pnpm already installs `@esbuild/<platform>` as an `optionalDependency`. yarn / npm / bun all ignore `pnpm-workspace.yaml`, so the file is inert under those package managers.

Subject: [PATCH 49/95] fix: address PR #99 round 38 reviews (workspace-yaml +
 yarn-berry edge cases)

Three correctness issues with the pnpm-workspace.yaml patch path
plus a yarn-berry false-positive flagged by the latest reviewers:

1. **[Codex P1] CRLF support.** All allowBuilds matchers now use
   `\r?\n` and `\r?$` so a Windows-checked-in workspace yaml is
   recognised. Without this, the existing-block matcher fell
   through to the "no allowBuilds at all" fallback and silently
   appended a duplicate top-level key. Newly-appended content
   reuses the file's detected EOL style so no mixed-EOL output.

2. **[Copilot] Trailing YAML comments.** `esbuild: false # foo`
   and `allowBuilds: false # global pin` are valid pnpm config
   the user might write by hand. The reader now respects them
   (rather than treating them as missing and double-writing).

3. **[Copilot] Backfill `packages: []`.** pnpm 9 errors with
   "packages field missing or empty" whenever
   `pnpm-workspace.yaml` exists without `packages:`. The patch
   path used to leave a user file like `allowBuilds: {}` alone,
   so cross-version compatibility was broken on the pnpm-9 lane.
   Now prepended when missing.

4. **[Codex P2] Skip yarn-berry caveat for safe enclosing
   linker.** When an ancestor `.yarnrc.yml` already pins
   `nodeLinker: node-modules`, the install runs without PnP and
   the arkor runtime works fine. Both inspect sites now
   short-circuit the caveat in that case instead of nudging the
   user about a setup they've already got right. Other ancestor
   signals (`.yarn/`, packageManager field walk-up, runtime yarn
   probe) still fire when no enclosing yarnrc explicitly opts in
   to `node-modules`.

Five new unit tests pin: CRLF round-trip, comment tolerance on
both block and scalar forms, packages:[] backfill, and the
safe-ancestor-linker short-circuit. All 90 scaffold tests + 338
arkor tests + e2e suite green locally.

Subject: [PATCH 50/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (workspace-yaml
 comment + indent edges)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two correctness gaps in the pnpm-workspace.yaml patcher flagged in
the latest Copilot pass:

1. **Inline-form trailing comments dropped on patch.** The
   `allowBuilds: { ... }` replacement rewrote the whole line, so
   `allowBuilds: { sharp: true } # native deps approved` lost the
   `# native deps approved` on every re-run. The header line of
   the block form had the same problem
   (`allowBuilds: # comment\n  sharp: true`). Both regexes now
   capture the trailing whitespace + optional comment and re-emit
   it verbatim via a shared `TRAILING_COMMENT_AND_EOL_CAPTURED`
   pattern.

2. **Indented document roots misread as missing keys.** YAML lets
   the root mapping start at any column, so a file like
   `  packages: []\n  allowBuilds:\n    esbuild: true` is valid
   pnpm config — but the previous column-0 anchors made the
   reader return "missing" for both keys, and the patcher then
   prepended a duplicate `packages:` and appended a duplicate
   `allowBuilds:` block. Added `detectYamlRootIndent` (mirroring
   `readNodeLinkerValue`'s rootIndent loop in `.yarnrc.yml`) and
   threaded the detected indent through every reader, the
   packages/scalar-pin checks, the prepend path, and the writer
   so new entries land at the same column as the existing root
   mapping.

Four new unit tests pin: inline-comment preservation, block-
header-comment preservation, indented-root reader idempotency,
and indented-root patch behaviour. All 94 scaffold tests + 338
arkor tests + e2e suite green locally.

Subject: [PATCH 51/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (Windows env-case
 + defensive type)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two non-test correctness items from the latest reviewer pass:

1. **[Codex P2] Windows case-insensitive env strip.** When an
   enclosing `yarn.lock` is present the install path used to do
   `delete env.YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS` with one exact
   casing. On Windows env-var lookup is case-insensitive, and
   Node passes through whatever casing the parent shell used —
   so a `yarn_enable_immutable_installs=false` (or any other
   casing) inherited via `{ ...process.env }` would survive the
   exact-case delete and yarn-berry on Windows would still
   honour it, re-introducing the very lockfile-rewrite hazard
   the round-32 guard was added to prevent. install.ts now loops
   `Object.keys(env)` and deletes any case-insensitive match
   before deciding whether to re-set the canonical form.

2. **[Copilot defensive] Explicit `ChildProcess` type for the
   yarn-version probe.** `let child;` was inferred-any-but-
   narrowed by control flow today, so typecheck still passed,
   but the explicit annotation is sturdier against future TS
   versions tightening the rule and matches the rest of the
   module's typing style.

The third Copilot review on this round (init.test.ts:122 — claims
the `toHaveBeenCalledWith` exact-match assertion fails because
`runInit()` now passes `allowBuilds`) is incorrect: vitest treats
a missing key and an explicit `undefined` value as equal in deep
equality, and the suite still passes locally (verified). No
change required.

One new install unit test pins the case-insensitive strip via
POSIX-injectable lowercase + mixed-case variants. All 9 install
+ 94 scaffold + 338 arkor tests + e2e green locally.

Subject: [PATCH 52/95] docs: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (vestigial CI
 env, doc accuracy)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Three Copilot follow-ups, all about docs / CI getting out of sync
with the round-37 / round-38 behaviour changes:

1. **Drop install-matrix job-level absolute file: spec.** The env
   was set as a fallback for any e2e test in the matrix lane that
   didn't override per-case, but every real-install test now packs
   its own `arkor-*.tgz` in `beforeAll` and threads a per-case
   `file:../<tgz>` override into `runCli`. The relative-and-tarball
   form is mandatory — pnpm 10 rejects absolute Windows-drive
   `file:` URIs and bun on Windows skips `bun.lock` generation for
   multi-segment relative paths — so a job-wide absolute fallback
   would silently mask that requirement and let any future test
   that forgets to override pass on Linux/macOS but break only on
   Windows × pnpm-10. Replaced the env block with a comment
   documenting why it's deliberately absent.

2. **Clarify create-arkor README's pnpm-workspace.yaml gating.**
   Previous wording read like the file is unconditionally skipped
   when the target is non-empty without a `--use-<pm>` flag, but
   the patch path still operates on an existing
   `pnpm-workspace.yaml` at the target whenever pnpm is plausible
   (cwd-merge into a pnpm project must keep working). Split the
   description into create / patch / skip cases so the reader
   can see all three.

3. **Update AGENTS.md contributor note for tarball-based
   install-matrix.** The note still claimed every lane uses
   `file:.../packages/arkor`, which is true for build / coverage
   but not for install-matrix. Spelled out both flows and the
   Windows-specific reason install-matrix can't share the
   absolute-directory fallback.

+The build / coverage lanes set `ARKOR_INTERNAL_SCAFFOLD_ARKOR_SPEC=file:.../packages/arkor` so scaffolded fixtures resolve to the in-workspace `arkor` (a directory) instead of the npm-published one. The install-matrix lane does NOT set this env at the job level — every real-install test packs a fresh `arkor-*.tgz` itself (`beforeAll` in `e2e/cli/src/{arkor-init,create-arkor}.test.ts`) and threads a per-case `file:../<tgz>` override into `runCli` / `runCreateArkor`. The relative-and-tarball form is mandatory because pnpm 10 rejects absolute Windows-drive `file:` URIs (`file:D:\…`) and bun on Windows skips `bun.lock` generation for multi-segment relative paths; a job-wide absolute fallback would mask that requirement and let Windows-only flakes slip past Linux/macOS reviewers.

 E2E coverage uses `c8` wrapping vitest (NOT vitest's own coverage) so child CLI processes' V8 coverage is captured and remapped through tsdown sourcemaps back to `src/`. `create-arkor`'s tsdown config only emits sourcemaps when `CREATE_ARKOR_BUILD_SOURCEMAP=1` (the published tarball ships without them).

 step + README tree)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

Two Copilot follow-ups on the same round:

1. **Drop vestigial `Pack arkor into a scaffold tarball` CI step.**
   With the previous commit removing the job-level
   `ARKOR_INTERNAL_SCAFFOLD_ARKOR_SPEC` env (the only consumer of
   `steps.pack-arkor.outputs.tarball`), nothing in the install-matrix
   workflow consumes the packed tarball anymore — every real-install
   test packs its own copy in `beforeAll`. Leaving the step in
   place was paying for a `pnpm pack` on every leg of the (very
   large) matrix with no observable effect. Replaced with a
   comment that explains the history so a future contributor
   doesn't re-add it.

2. **Annotate create-arkor README directory tree.** The "what it
   writes" tree showed `pnpm-workspace.yaml` as if it's always
   scaffolded, but the round-37 gating skips it for `--use-npm` /
   `--use-yarn` / `--use-bun` and a few existing-project cases.
   Marked the entry `OPTIONAL` and added a one-line callout above
   the gating-rules section so readers don't expect a file that
   often won't exist.

 - **Created** when pnpm is the plausible package manager (`--use-pnpm` set, or no `--use-*` flag with a fresh empty target) AND no ancestor directory already declares one.

Subject: [PATCH 54/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (--allow-builds
 doc + create-arkor recovery hint)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two Copilot follow-ups from the same review pass:

1. **--allow-builds doc was overpromising.** Both `docs/cli/init.mdx`
   and `docs/ja/cli/init.mdx` claimed the flag is "accepted
   regardless of `--use-<pm>` so a project scaffolded with
   `--use-npm` today and switched to pnpm later doesn't silently
   strip the earlier `--allow-builds` choice". That's not how the
   round-37 gating actually works — when pm is explicit non-pnpm,
   `scaffold()` doesn't emit or patch `pnpm-workspace.yaml` at all,
   so there's nowhere for the flag to persist. Reworded both
   languages to admit the flag is a no-op under non-pnpm pms and
   point users at re-running with `--use-pnpm --allow-builds`
   after the switch.

2. **create-arkor's "re-run this command" recovery hint hits
   the occupied-directory guard on the default subdir flow.**
   When the user runs bare `create-arkor` (no `[dir]`), scaffold
   creates `./<name>/`. If install or a yarn-config advisory
   trips the git-init skip, the previous hint told them to
   re-run — but `run()`'s occupied-directory guard at the top
   would abort the re-run because `./<name>/` is now non-empty.
   Made the message context-aware: when `options.dir !==
   undefined` (explicit `[dir]` or `.`), re-running is still
   safe (scaffold merges into the existing dir or cwd) so the
   "re-run this command" hint stays. For the bare invocation,
   the hint now points at `cd <name> && <pm> install` followed
   by manual `git init` + commit inside the project directory.

Subject: [PATCH 55/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (YAML doc-marker
 prepend + remove depth caps)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Three Codex follow-ups, two of them sharing the same "arbitrary
20-level cap" pattern:

1. **[P1] `prependPackagesEmptyList` must respect YAML headers.**
   The previous implementation slapped `packages: []` at byte 0,
   so an existing `pnpm-workspace.yaml` that opens with a
   `---\n…` document marker (or a `%YAML 1.2` directive) became
   a multi-document stream after patch and pnpm rejected it with
   "expected a single document in the stream". Now walks past
   leading directives, document boundary markers, comments, and
   blank lines and inserts inside the first document. Comments
   stay at the top of the file (preserving any user header note)
   instead of being shoved below the synthetic key.

2. **[P2] Remove 20-iteration depth cap in ancestor walks.**
   `findEnclosingPath`, `findEnclosingPackageManagerField`, and
   `hasEnclosingYarnLock` all hard-capped traversal at 20
   parents. A real deep-monorepo subdir past that cap was
   misclassified as having no enclosing config — scaffold then
   created a nested `pnpm-workspace.yaml` that shadowed the true
   workspace root, and `install()` set
   `YARN_ENABLE_IMMUTABLE_INSTALLS=false` and bypassed
   yarn-berry's CI immutability guard, exactly the rewrite
   hazard the round-27 walk was supposed to prevent. The caps
   were originally added as a defensive guard against
   pathological symlinks, but `dirname` is purely syntactic
   (doesn't follow links) and terminates at the filesystem root
   on its own via `parent === dir`. Replaced the bounded `for`
   loops with `while (true)` ones gated on that termination
   signal.

Four new unit tests pin: backfill-after-doc-marker,
backfill-after-`%YAML`-directive, backfill-after-leading-comment,
and a 25-level-deep ancestor walk that the previous 20-cap would
have failed. All 129 cli-internal + 338 arkor + e2e tests green
locally.

Subject: [PATCH 56/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (outro git-skip +
 doc + assertion shape)

Three Copilot follow-ups, all about staying consistent with earlier
round-37/38 behaviour changes:

1. **Outro now reminds `--git` users when git init was skipped.**
   Round 35 introduced two skip branches when install fails or is
   blocked, but the closing "Next steps" / "Next:" outro still only
   mentioned `<pm> install` + `arkor dev`. A `--git` user fixing
   install and following the outro verbatim ended up with the
   install repaired but no repo. Added a `git init && git add -A &&
   git commit -m "..."` step to the outro in both `arkor init`
   and `create-arkor`, gated on the new `gitInitSkipped` flag.

2. **README directory tree now flags `.yarnrc.yml` as conditional
   too.** The earlier wording ("the other six paths are always
   written") was wrong: `.yarnrc.yml` is also gated (`--use-yarn`
   or fresh undetected scaffolds). Split the file list into "always
   written" + a two-bullet rundown of `.yarnrc.yml` and
   `pnpm-workspace.yaml` skip conditions. Removed the now-redundant
   "two-axis gating" section since the bullet covers the same
   ground.

3. **Switched `arkor init` / `arkor main` test assertions from
   exact `toHaveBeenCalledWith({...})` to `objectContaining(...)`.**
   The test passes locally because vitest treats missing keys and
   `undefined` as equal in deep equality, but the reviewer has
   re-flagged it twice now and a partial matcher is more robust
   against future ScaffoldOptions / InitOptions additions and
   future matcher tightening.

Subject: [PATCH 57/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (outro consistency
 + minor doc/test cleanups)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Four small follow-ups from the latest review pass:

1. **[Codex P2] Quote backticks in recovery git commit message.**
   The previous commit added a `git commit -m "Initial commit
   from \`arkor init\`"` recovery hint to the `arkor init` outro.
   POSIX shells expand backticks inside double quotes, so a copy-
   paste of that line would shell-execute `arkor init` instead of
   committing. Switched the commit message to single quotes so
   the backticks survive verbatim. (`create-arkor`'s recovery
   line never had backticks, so its commit message stays in
   double quotes.)

2. **[Copilot] blockInstall outro contradicted the advisory.**
   When a yarn-config advisory blocked install, the closing
   "Next steps" still printed `<pm> install` as if nothing was
   wrong. Both `arkor init` and `create-arkor` now special-case
   `wouldHaveInstalled && blockInstall` and prepend a "fix the
   advisory above first, then …" reminder to the outro so the
   summary matches the warning above instead of leading users
   straight back into the broken install.

3. **[Copilot] README narrowed to detection-failed case.** The
   "fresh scaffolds where no `--use-<pm>` flag is set" wording
   read as "any fresh scaffold without `--use-*`", but in
   practice `npm create arkor` / `yarn create arkor` /
   `bun create arkor` all resolve a pm via UA detection and
   therefore skip both yaml files. Re-worded to spell out
   "package-manager detection didn't resolve a pm" and called
   out the common UA-detected flows explicitly.

4. **[Copilot] yarn-version test name was backwards.** `it("rejects
   multi-digit majors correctly", ...)` was misleading — the body
   asserts that `10.0.0` parses to `10`, i.e. multi-digit majors
   are PARSED CORRECTLY, not rejected. Renamed to `parses
   multi-digit majors correctly` to match intent.

Subject: [PATCH 58/95] ci: add Node 26 to build + install-matrix coverage
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Node 26 was just released, so both CI lanes that were already
covering each major's floor + latest now do the same for 26.x:

- **Build matrix:** `26.0.0` (initial release) + `>=26.0.0 <27`
  (latest 26.x), appended after the Node 24 detail block. We
  don't have the same per-minor amaro / strip-types tracking as
  24.x because no notable behaviour shifts have landed yet —
  if any do, this is where the sub-version entries would go.
- **Install matrix:** same `26.0.0` + `>=26.0.0 <27` pair,
  appended after the 24.12.0 / latest 24.x entries. This
  expands the install matrix from 5 to 7 Node lanes (× 3 OS ×
  7 pm = 147 install jobs).

Pinned `corepack@0.34.7` already advertises engines
`^20.10.0 || ^22.11.0 || >=24.0.0`, so it covers Node 26 with
no further change.

Subject: [PATCH 59/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 review (single-quote
 create-arkor recovery commit message)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Mirror of the round-39 Codex P2 fix on `arkor init`'s recovery
line. The current `Initial commit from Create Arkor` message
has no shell metacharacters today, so the previous double-quoted
form was technically safe — but Copilot re-flagged the
inconsistency, and a future tweak that adds a `$`, backtick, or
unbalanced quote would shell-substitute on copy-paste. Switching
to single quotes makes the recovery line inert by construction
and matches `arkor init`'s style.

The other late-round reviews
(`e2e/cli/src/arkor-init.test.ts:312` bun-Windows lockfile skip,
`.github/workflows/ci.yaml:163` matrix size) are user-decided
trade-offs from earlier rounds and remain intentional.

Subject: [PATCH 60/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (yarnrc merge +
 lockfile-landed git gate)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two genuine correctness gaps from the latest Copilot pass:

1. **yarn-berry caveat ignored ancestor merge.** Round 38 added an
   "enclosing nodeLinker is node-modules" short-circuit, but the
   helper bailed at the first existing yarnrc and treated
   "found-but-no-key" as `undefined`. So the cwd-has-yarnrc-
   without-nodeLinker case (`kept + needsBerryCaveat` on the patch
   path, `berry-without-linker` on the inspect path) STILL raised
   a false-positive caveat even when the parent workspace pinned
   `nodeLinker: node-modules`. Rewrote the helper to walk every
   `.yarnrc.yml` from cwd to the filesystem root and return the
   FIRST one that defines `nodeLinker:` — yarn's actual merge
   semantics — and applied the (now-correctly-resolving) gate to
   the `berry-without-linker` branch on the inspect path too.

2. **Install-threw silently dropped requested git init.** Round 35
   started skipping `git init` whenever `install()` rejected, on
   the assumption "no install → no lockfile → no initial commit".
   But pnpm 11 and bun on Windows have been observed exiting
   non-zero AFTER writing both `node_modules` and the lockfile —
   the install reported failure but the bootstrap was effectively
   complete, and we silently dropped the `--git` user's initial
   commit. Added `lockfileLandedAfterInstall(cwd, pm)` (maps each
   pm to its lockfile name and `existsSync`-checks cwd) and
   widened the `installSucceeded` gate in both `arkor init` and
   `create-arkor` to accept "lockfile is on disk" as evidence of
   a usable bootstrap. The user already saw whatever error message
   the install printed; running git init on top recovers the
   commit they originally asked for.

Five new unit tests pin: lockfile-on-disk per pm, undefined-pm
short-circuit, no-cross-pm-match, the merged ancestor-yarnrc gate
on the patch path, and the merged ancestor-yarnrc gate on the
inspect path. cli-internal mocks updated in `arkor/init.test.ts`
and `create-arkor/bin.test.ts` to expose the new export. All 141
cli-internal + 338 arkor + e2e green locally.

 lockfile + outro alignment)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two follow-ups that round-39's previous commit didn't fully cover:

1. **lockfileLandedAfterInstall must walk ancestors.** The
   helper added in the previous commit only checked `cwd`, but
   every supported pm hoists the lockfile to the workspace root
   in monorepo subdir scaffolds (`monorepo/packages/foo`). A
   yarn-workspace recovery scenario the reviewer specifically
   called out — `yarn install` updates the root `yarn.lock` and
   then exits non-zero — was treated as "lockfile didn't land",
   so `--git` users still lost the requested initial commit.
   Switched to a `dirname() === self` walk, mirroring
   `hasEnclosingYarnLock`'s policy. Generic across pms because
   pnpm-workspace, yarn-berry workspace, npm workspace, and bun
   workspace all share the root-hoisted lockfile shape.

2. **Outro hint must use the same "effectively installed"
   signal as the git gate.** `installSucceeded` was widened to
   accept "lockfile is on disk despite a non-zero install
   exit", but the closing outro still keyed off `installed`
   alone. The recovered-success user was told to run
   `<pm> install` again even though git init had already been
   allowed to proceed and the dependency tree was complete.
   Both `arkor init` and `create-arkor` now derive a
   `treeIsReady = installSucceeded && wouldHaveInstalled`
   signal and use it for the install-line decision so the
   outro stays consistent with the actual bootstrap state.
   `--skip-install` / no-pm flows are unaffected because they
   leave `wouldHaveInstalled === false`.

Four new unit tests pin: lockfile lookup walks an ancestor
directory for each of the four supported pms (so future
refactors don't silently re-narrow the helper to cwd-only).
All 145 cli-internal + 338 arkor tests + e2e green locally.

Subject: [PATCH 62/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (lockfile mtime
 snapshot + sync-spawn cleanup)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two follow-ups from the latest reviewer pass:

1. **[Codex P1] Lockfile-existence fallback false-positive on
   pre-existing ancestor lockfiles.** The previous commit's
   `lockfileLandedAfterInstall(cwd, pm)` returned `true` whenever
   any ancestor had the matching lockfile. In a workspace-subdir
   scaffold (`monorepo/packages/foo`), the parent's lockfile is
   already on disk before install runs — so a totally failed
   install would still pass the gate, and the CLI would proceed
   with `git init` over an untouched tree.

   Replaced the helper with a snapshot/diff pair:
   - `snapshotLockfile(cwd, pm)` records `{exists, mtimeMs}` of
     the closest-enclosing lockfile at a moment in time. Callers
     take the snapshot BEFORE invoking install.
   - `lockfileChangedSince(cwd, pm, before)` returns true only
     when the lockfile is freshly created OR its mtime has moved
     forward. Equal mtime + same existence is "install didn't
     change anything material" → caller does NOT recover.

   `arkor init` and `create-arkor` thread the pre-snapshot
   through to the gate so `installSucceeded` only widens for
   genuinely-touched lockfiles.

2. **[Copilot] runCli leaks per-spawn cache dirs on synchronous
   spawn throw.** The yarn / bun cache tmp dirs were `mkdtemp`'d
   immediately before `spawn(...)`. If `spawn` throws
   synchronously (invalid `binPath`, exec-time platform error,
   EACCES on cwd, etc.), the close/error event listeners that
   normally fire `cleanup()` never get attached, so the dirs
   leak. A tight retry loop on a misconfigured matrix would fill
   tmpdir on long CI runs. Hoisted the `cleanup` closure ahead
   of `spawn`, wrapped the call in try/catch, and ran teardown
   from the catch path before propagating.

Test surface: 7 new install-helper tests pin
`snapshotLockfile` + `lockfileChangedSince` (per-pm lockfile
table, undefined-pm short-circuit, ancestor-walk shape, and the
three `lockfileChangedSince` cases — pre-existing-untouched,
fresh-create, mtime-advanced). 1 new spawn-cli test pins the
sync-spawn-throw cleanup. Mocks in `arkor init.test.ts` and
`create-arkor bin.test.ts` updated to expose the new helpers.
All 152 cli-internal + 338 arkor + 87 e2e tests green locally.

Subject: [PATCH 63/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (yarn-config
 comment + cd path quoting)

Two Copilot follow-ups:

1. **yarn-config emission rules comment was misleading.** The
   commentary block above the `shouldEmitYarnConfig` predicate
   described the `pm === undefined` branches in terms of "NO
   existing `package.json`" / "a `package.json` already exists".
   That phrasing predates the round-15 widening from
   `existsSync(package.json)` to "non-empty directory entries"
   (which the actual `isExistingProject` snapshot uses today).
   Reworded the bullets to describe `isExistingProject` directly
   and added a back-reference to the round-15 rationale so a
   future maintainer doesn't re-narrow the predicate.

2. **`cd ${cdTarget}` recovery hints break on paths with
   spaces or shell metacharacters.** `create-arkor "My App"`
   would emit a copy-paste-broken `cd My App && pnpm install`,
   and a directory containing `;` / `$` / backtick would
   shell-execute on paste. Added `shellQuoteIfNeeded(value)`
   that leaves the safe-character common case unquoted (so
   `my-app`, `apps/foo`, `@scope/pkg`, etc. stay clean) and
   POSIX-quotes the rest with the standard `'\''`
   close-literal-open escape for embedded single quotes.
   Applied to all four `cd ${cdTarget}` sites in
   `packages/create-arkor/src/bin.ts` (advisory retry hint,
   install-failed retry hint, recovery-in-dir hint, and the
   closing outro). 4 new unit tests pin the safe-character /
   space / metachar / embedded-quote cases.

Subject: [PATCH 64/95] docs: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (stale references
 + yarn-config accuracy)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Three doc-accuracy follow-ups from the latest Copilot pass:

1. **Stale `PNPM_WORKSPACE_CONTENT` references.** The constant
   was refactored to a `pnpmWorkspaceContent(allowEsbuild)`
   function during round 36 to thread `--allow-builds` through,
   but two doc comments and one cross-reference still pointed at
   the old constant name. Updated all three to
   `pnpmWorkspaceContent()` so a future maintainer chasing the
   per-version rationale lands at the actual helper.

2. **yarn-config "always write/patch" bullet was wrong for
   `--use-yarn` against an existing project.** `patchYarnConfig`
   intentionally returns `kept + needsBerryCaveat` (no file
   created) when the cwd already has content but no
   `.yarnrc.yml` — round 14 added this guard so we don't flip
   the install mode of an enclosing yarn-berry workspace
   deliberately on PnP. The bullet now spells out the three
   sub-cases (create, patch / leave alone, decline-and-advise)
   instead of misleading "always write".

3. **`packages/create-arkor/README.md` `.yarnrc.yml` line was
   too broad.** It read as if `--use-yarn` always emits the
   file, even into an existing non-empty project. Clarified
   that the file is *created* only on **fresh** scaffolds
   where yarn is plausible, and that the existing-project path
   declines emission and surfaces an advisory instead.

The two other round-39 reviews are no-action: the
`.github/workflows/ci.yaml:143` matrix-size flag is a
trade-off the project owner already explicitly chose to
accept ("A" — keep the matrix as-is); recurring auto-review
re-flags the same line every push because the code hasn't
changed.

Subject: [PATCH 65/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (Windows-safe
 shell quoting in recovery hints)

Round-39 Codex P2 + Copilot, same point: `shellQuoteIfNeeded()`
emitted POSIX single quotes regardless of platform, but the
recovery hints it produces (`cd ${cdTarget} && pnpm install`)
are printed verbatim on Windows too. `cmd.exe` treats `'` as a
literal character, so a `cd 'My App' && pnpm install` would
copy-paste-fail there. Switched the helper to emit
double-quoted output on `process.platform === "win32"` (works in
both `cmd.exe` and PowerShell) and POSIX single quotes
elsewhere. Embedded `"` is escaped as `\"` on Windows; embedded
`'` keeps the standard POSIX `'\''` close-literal-open
sequence.

Test surface: existing POSIX tests scoped to `linux` /
`darwin` via a `withPlatform()` helper that swaps
`process.platform` for the assertion and restores it in a
`finally`. Three new Windows cases pin double-quoting for
spaces, metacharacters, and embedded `"` so the strategy stays
robust if anyone later reaches for a "tighter" quoting rule.
The unquoted-safe-character path is now covered for all three
platforms via a loop.

Subject: [PATCH 66/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (CodeQL backslash
 escape + mkdtemp leak)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two follow-ups from the latest auto-review:

1. **[CodeQL] Windows quoting didn't escape backslashes.** The
   round-39 Windows path of `shellQuoteIfNeeded` only escaped
   embedded `"` (`"` → `\"`). A trailing `\` in the value would
   then absorb the closing `"` and leave the quoted argument
   un-terminated; a `\\"` run would be double-decoded by the
   downstream parser. Added the missing `\` → `\\` step BEFORE
   the quote-escape, matching the Windows `_setargv` / msvcrt
   convention used by both PowerShell and the standard
   `cmd.exe` argv path. Three new test cases pin the
   plain-backslash, trailing-backslash, and backslash-quote-
   run cases.

2. **[Copilot] Sequential `mkdtempSync` calls leaked the first
   dir if the second threw.** `runCliOnce` mkdtemps the yarn
   cache, then the bun cache. If the second call throws (tmpdir
   ENOSPC, permissions race, etc.), the first dir is orphaned —
   the close/error listeners that fire `cleanup()` haven't
   attached yet because `spawn(...)` runs even later. Wrapped
   the second mkdtemp in a try/catch that unwinds the first
   yarn cache and rejects the Promise.

Subject: [PATCH 67/95] docs: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (stale docstring
 + bun lockfile rationale)

Two doc-only follow-ups from the latest Copilot pass:

1. **`findEnclosingPackageManagerField` docstring still claimed
   "Bound to 20 iterations".** The implementation switched to a
   `while (true)` walk terminating on `dirname() === self` in
   the round-39 Codex P2 fix (the 20-iter cap was rejecting
   real deeply-nested monorepo subdirs), but the docstring
   wasn't updated. Aligned the comment with the actual
   behaviour and back-referenced the round-39 rationale.

2. **`LOCKFILE_BY_PM[bun]` now carries a rationale comment.**
   The auto-review re-flags `bun: "bun.lock"` every push, on
   the (now-outdated) assumption that `bun.lockb` is still
   bun's default lockfile. bun 1.2 (Jan 2025) made the text-
   based `bun.lock` the default and `bun install` on fresh
   projects no longer generates `bun.lockb`. The CI matrix
   pins `bun@1.3.13`, so the existing mapping is correct.
   Added a comment in `install.ts` so future readers (and the
   auto-review) see the rationale inline.

The `e2e/cli/src/{create-arkor,arkor-init,install}.test.ts`
flags about `bun.lock` are the same recurring concern; the
`install.ts` comment is the single source of truth for the
choice and the e2e mappings already line up with it (the
`shouldSkipBunLockfileAssertion` Windows comment in
`arkor-init.test.ts:272-294` further confirms `bun.lock` as
the lockfile name our tests assert against).

Subject: [PATCH 68/95] docs: address PR #99 round 39 review (clarify
 --allow-builds semantics on existing pins)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round-39 Copilot follow-up: the README's `--allow-builds` line
read as "flip the entry to true", which was misleading because
the scaffold deliberately preserves any pre-existing explicit
`allowBuilds.esbuild` pin (see the round-37
`preserves-a-user-set-esbuild=false-even-when-allow-builds-is-passed`
unit test in `packages/cli-internal/src/scaffold.test.ts`). The
flag actually controls only the value the scaffold *writes*
(fresh emission, or a brand-new `esbuild` entry merged into an
existing block) — an explicit deny on disk stays a deny, and
the user has to edit the YAML by hand to change it.

Reworded the bullet to spell out:
- Fresh scaffold: `esbuild: true` instead of `false`.
- Patch-existing where esbuild isn't named: new entry uses `true`.
- Existing explicit pin (`true` or `false`): preserved either way.

The other re-flagged items in this round (`bun.lock` mapping,
`findEnclosingPackageManagerField` 20-iter docstring) are
either already documented inline or are recurring auto-review
flags on already-explained code; no further action required.

Subject: [PATCH 69/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 review
 (no-trailing-newline allowBuilds patch)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Round-39 Copilot follow-up: `appendEsbuildToAllowBuilds`'s
block-form matcher requires `\r?\n` after the header AND after
every body line. A hand-edited `pnpm-workspace.yaml` that omits
the trailing newline (common in CI-generated or tool-written
files) would miss the body capture entirely, fall through to
"no allowBuilds at all", and append a duplicate top-level
`allowBuilds:` block — invalid/ambiguous YAML pnpm may then
ignore.

Fixed by normalizing the input at the top of
`appendEsbuildToAllowBuilds`: append a single newline if the
file doesn't already end with one. The block matcher then sees
all entries properly terminated and patches in place; the
fallback branch's old "did the file end with a newline?"
guard becomes redundant (the normalization guarantees it) and
was simplified accordingly.

Two new unit tests pin both branches:
- Existing `allowBuilds:` block + body line + no trailing
  newline → merges `esbuild: false` into the existing block,
  preserves `sharp: true`, keeps exactly ONE top-level
  `allowBuilds:` key (the duplicate-key regression).
- No `allowBuilds:` key + no trailing newline → appends a
  fresh block with the normalizing newline as separator so
  `packages: []allowBuilds:` doesn't smash together.

All 102 scaffold tests + 152 cli-internal + 338 arkor + 87
e2e tests green locally.

Subject: [PATCH 70/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (recovery gate,
 inline parser, PS injection)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Four follow-ups from the latest reviewer pass:

1. **[Codex P1] Tighten install-recovery gate.** The
   `lockfileChangedSince` fallback widened the git-init gate to
   accept any forward-moving lockfile mtime as proof of
   "install effectively succeeded". A failed install that ran
   a preinstall / install lifecycle hook, rewrote the lockfile,
   and then errored BEFORE populating `node_modules` would
   misclassify as success — git proceeds, but dependencies are
   incomplete. Added `hasEnclosingNodeModules(cwd, pm)` and
   AND'd it with the lockfile-change check. Both must hold for
   the recovery path. Pinned with 4 new install-helper tests
   (undefined-pm short-circuit, no `node_modules`, cwd
   `node_modules`, ancestor-walk shape).

2. **[Codex P2] Inline `esbuild` substring match.** The
   inline-key reader's regex was unbounded, so a hand-written
   `allowBuilds: { myesbuild: false }` falsely satisfied the
   `esbuild` lookup and the patcher skipped the merge — leaving
   pnpm 11 to keep erroring on the missing `esbuild` entry.
   Anchored the lookup at a mapping-start boundary
   (`{` / `,` / whitespace / start-of-string). Test pinned.

3. **[Codex P2] Inline trailing-comma corruption.** Hand-written
   `allowBuilds: { sharp: true, }` would otherwise produce
   `sharp: true,, esbuild: false` after the merge — invalid YAML
   pnpm rejects on parse. The inline writer now strips a
   trailing comma (with optional whitespace) before joining.
   Test pinned.

4. **[Copilot] PowerShell injection in Windows recovery hints.**
   `shellQuoteIfNeeded`'s Windows path used double quotes
   without escaping PowerShell metacharacters. A directory
   containing `$` / `$()` / backtick would let a copy-pasted
   `cd "..." && pnpm install` evaluate a subexpression in PS.
   Backtick-escape `` ` ``, `$`, and `"` (in that order — the
   backtick is the PS escape char and must be processed first
   to avoid double-encoding). cmd.exe renders the backtick
   literally; paths with literal `$` / backtick are rare so
   the cosmetic mismatch in cmd is an acceptable trade for
   PS safety. 4 new test cases pin `$`, `$()`, literal
   backtick, and `` ` ``-then-`$` order-sensitivity.

Subject: [PATCH 71/95] fix: address PR #99 round 39 reviews (node_modules
 snapshot, doc accuracy)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Three follow-ups from the latest reviewer pass:

1. **[Codex P1] Replace `hasEnclosingNodeModules` with a
   before/after snapshot at cwd.** The previous follow-up paired
   `lockfileChangedSince` with a static `existsSync(node_modules)`
   ancestor walk. In a monorepo subdir scaffold, a hoisted parent
   `node_modules` (from a prior root install) satisfies that
   check unconditionally — a failed install that rewrote the
   lockfile but never populated dependencies still passed the
   gate, so `init` / `create-arkor` would proceed with `git init`
   and the "Next: arkor dev" outro despite the project being
   broken. Switched to `snapshotNodeModules(cwd)` / `nodeModulesChangedSince(...)`
   matching the lockfile pattern: snapshot at cwd specifically
   BEFORE install, diff AFTER. The before/after pair proves THIS
   install touched `node_modules`, not an ambient ancestor that
   was already on disk.

2. **[Copilot] `patchGitignore` doc was misleading about CREATE
   into existing repos.** The comment framed the policy as
   "be conservative for existing repos", but the CREATE branch
   still writes `node_modules/` + `dist/` ignores when the repo
   simply has no `.gitignore` yet (round-15's
   `isExistingProject=true` widening folds that case in too).
   Reworded to call out that CREATE on a missing-`.gitignore`
   repo is intentional — adding ignores is strictly additive
   (we never DROP a track from git), and users who deliberately
   track `node_modules/` already have a `.gitignore` that
   excludes those entries, sending them down the PATCH branch
   that DOES preserve their policy. The yarn-cache extras still
   key off `isExistingProject`.

3. **[Copilot] `shellQuoteIfNeeded` Windows doc/code mismatch.**
   The docstring claimed the function backtick-escapes
   PowerShell metachars including `"`, but the implementation
   backslash-escapes `\` and `"` (msvcrt argv convention) while
   only backtick-escaping `` ` `` and `$` (PS convention).
   Reworded the docstring to spell out the MIXED escape strategy
   per metachar, name which shell each escape favours, and
   acknowledge the trade-off (cmd users with literal `` ` `` /
   `$` see a cosmetic mismatch; PS users with literal `"` see a
   broken-but-not-injection cd hint; both inputs are vanishingly
   rare in practice).

Test surface: replaced the 4-test `hasEnclosingNodeModules`
block in `install.test.ts` with 7 tests covering
`snapshotNodeModules` shape, cwd-only ignore-ancestor behaviour,
`nodeModulesChangedSince` for newly-created / mtime-advanced /
unchanged states, and a regression for "ancestor churn doesn't
trigger the gate". Updated `cli-internal` mocks in
`arkor init.test.ts` and `create-arkor bin.test.ts` to expose
the new helpers. All 156 cli-internal + 27 create-arkor + 338
arkor + 87 e2e-cli + 9 e2e-studio tests green locally.

Subject: [PATCH 72/95] refactor: update commit message formatting for
 cross-shell compatibility

Modified the commit message hints in `arkor init` and `create-arkor` to use double quotes instead of single quotes. This change ensures compatibility across various shell environments, including POSIX, cmd.exe, and PowerShell, preventing potential errors during copy-pasting. The adjustments maintain safety against shell expansions while providing a consistent user experience.

Subject: [PATCH 73/95] fix: enhance node_modules snapshot handling for
 monorepo support

Updated the `snapshotNodeModules` function to capture both the local `node_modules` at `cwd` and the closest enclosing one above it. This change addresses issues with the recovery gate in monorepo setups, ensuring that a hoisted install can be detected correctly. The `nodeModulesChangedSince` function was also modified to reflect these changes, allowing it to accurately determine if the state of `node_modules` has materially advanced. Additionally, tests were added to cover various scenarios, including the handling of ancestor `node_modules` and ensuring that static paths do not falsely indicate success. All related tests have been updated and verified to pass.

Subject: [PATCH 74/95] fix: update outro messaging for advisory instructions
 in bootstrap process

Revised the closing summary in the bootstrap process to improve clarity for users. The previous implementation used a comment-style line that caused issues in Windows command prompts. The new approach replaces the comment with a clear instruction, ensuring compatibility across different shell environments. This change maintains the prominence of advisory warnings while providing a consistent user experience.

Subject: [PATCH 75/95] fix: enhance node_modules snapshot handling for
 ancestor tracking

Updated the `snapshotNodeModules` function to capture all ancestor `node_modules` paths above `cwd` in a Map, improving detection of changes during installs. This change addresses issues with the recovery gate in monorepo setups, ensuring that both newly appeared and mtime-advanced ancestor paths are correctly recognized. The `nodeModulesChangedSince` function was also modified to reflect these updates, allowing for accurate state determination. Tests were added and existing ones updated to cover various scenarios, ensuring robust handling of ancestor `node_modules` in different install topologies.

Subject: [PATCH 76/95] fix: improve regex anchoring for YAML parsing in pnpm
 workspace

Updated regex patterns in the `scaffold.ts` file to anchor at `^${rootIndent}` instead of `^`, ensuring accurate detection of top-level `allowBuilds:` settings in YAML files. This change prevents misinterpretation of nested mappings and enhances compatibility with indented document roots, addressing issues identified in round-39 reviews. The documentation has also been clarified to reflect these adjustments.

Subject: [PATCH 77/95] fix: handle potential exceptions from kill() in
 detectYarnMajor

Updated the detectYarnMajor function to wrap the child process kill() call in a try/catch block. This change prevents uncaught exceptions from crashing the process when the kill() method throws due to unsupported signals or race conditions. The timeout now reliably resolves to undefined, ensuring consistent behavior in scenarios where the process exits unexpectedly. Added a corresponding test case to validate this behavior.

Subject: [PATCH 78/95] fix: clarify patching logic in scaffold function
 documentation

Updated comments in the `scaffold` function to enhance clarity regarding the conditions under which the patching occurs. The previous wording suggested that patching always bypassed certain checks, which was misleading. The revised comments now accurately reflect the logic, ensuring users understand the interaction between the presence of a pnpm configuration and the patching process. This change addresses feedback from round 40 reviews and improves the overall documentation quality.

Skipped for `--use-npm` / `--use-yarn` / `--use-bun` (and likewise the `npm create` / `yarn create` / `bun create` flows that resolve via UA) and inside pnpm monorepo subdirs (the parent's workspace file governs — we never shadow it).

 | `AGENTS.md` | **Created** with the arkor-managed block if missing (default; skip with `--no-agents-md`). If the file exists, the arkor-managed block (delimited by `<!-- BEGIN:arkor-agent-rules -->` / `<!-- END:arkor-agent-rules -->`) is **patched** in place — appended on first run, replaced inline on re-scaffold — and any user content outside the markers is preserved. **Ok** (no change) if the canonical block is already present and up-to-date. **Kept** with a warning, instead of patched, when the file contains more than one canonical managed block: auto-picking either copy is unsafe, so the scaffolder leaves the file alone and asks you to dedupe before the next re-scaffold. |
 | `CLAUDE.md` | **Created** with `@AGENTS.md` (the Claude Code import directive) if missing (default; skip with `--no-agents-md`). **Kept** untouched if the file already exists, so a project-specific `CLAUDE.md` is never overwritten. **Skipped** with a warning when `AGENTS.md` was kept due to duplicate managed blocks — creating the `@AGENTS.md` shim in that state would auto-import the unresolved duplicate rules into Claude Code's context. The next re-scaffold creates the file once you dedupe `AGENTS.md`. |
 | `pnpm-workspace.yaml` | _Conditional._ See [Postinstall scripts (pnpm 11+)](#postinstall-scripts-pnpm-11) for the full conditions. **Created** with `packages: []` + `allowBuilds.esbuild: false` (or `: true` with `--allow-builds`) when pnpm is plausible AND no ancestor already declares one. **Patched** when the file already exists AND pnpm is plausible: appends `esbuild: <bool>` to `allowBuilds:` only if esbuild isn't already pinned. **Skipped** for explicit `--use-npm` / `--use-yarn` / `--use-bun` and inside pnpm monorepo subdirs. |
-| `.yarnrc.yml` | _Conditional._ See [Yarn-config gating](/cli/init#git-policy) (or `packages/cli-internal/src/scaffold.ts` for the full layered policy). **Created** with `nodeLinker: node-modules` on fresh scaffolds where yarn is plausible (`--use-yarn`, UA-detected yarn, or no `--use-*` flag with UA detection failing). **Kept** untouched if it exists; non-default `nodeLinker:` produces a conflict warning, missing `nodeLinker:` surfaces a yarn-berry caveat. **Skipped** for explicit non-yarn pms and for `--use-yarn` against an existing non-empty dir without a positive yarn-berry signal. |

Subject: [PATCH 85/95] fix: address Codex review batch on /api/train cancel
 safety + dev cleanup

- Capture cloud-api scope on the TrainRegistry entry at spawn time so
  /api/train cancel can POST /v1/jobs/:id/cancel without re-reading
  .arkor/state.json at stop time (avoids silent cloud-job orphan when
  the user removes the state file mid-training).
- Mirror parsed jobId on the /api/train handler closure so the cancel
  IIFE can briefly poll for an id arriving after unregister, covering
  the race where Stop is clicked between cloud createJob and the
  runner's stdout marker landing.
- Make the runner's `Started job <id>` marker unforgeable: server
  injects a per-spawn 32-hex nonce via ARKOR_JOB_ID_MARKER_NONCE,
  runner deletes the env var before dynamically importing the user
  module, and the server's anchored regex matches only the
  nonce-prefixed shape. Closes a hole where user code could log a
  spoof line first and hijack the cancel POST onto an attacker-
  chosen job id.
- Clear pendingPreSpawnEventsRef in the SPA SSE error branch so a
  buffered stale rebuild event can't be drained by a subsequent
  onSpawn and silently auto-restart against a broken source state.
- Gate the studio-token cleanup unlink on actual persist success
  (tokenPersisted flag read at hook-fire time) so a failed-persist
  arkor dev doesn't wipe a concurrent session's valid token at the
  shared ~/.arkor/studio-token path.

Adds three regression tests: cancel-after-state-deletion, nonce-spoof
rejection, and concurrent-dev token preservation.

 pnpm 11 changed the default for postinstall scripts to "deny unless explicitly approved", and exits with `ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS` (code 1) when an unapproved script is encountered. esbuild ships such a script (`node install.js`, which verifies/downloads the platform-specific binary), so a vanilla `pnpm install` against a freshly scaffolded project would otherwise fail.

+`src/arkor/`, `arkor.config.ts`, `README.md`, `.gitignore`, and `package.json` are always written. `AGENTS.md` and `CLAUDE.md` are written by default and skipped with `--no-agents-md`. The two yaml files are conditional:
 
 - **`.yarnrc.yml`** is *created* with `nodeLinker: node-modules` only on **fresh scaffolds** where yarn is the plausible package manager (i.e. `--use-yarn` is set, `npm_config_user_agent` resolves to yarn (e.g. `yarn create arkor`), OR no `--use-*` flag is set AND UA detection failed to identify the invoking pm). This protects yarn-berry users reading the manual-install hint who then run `yarn install`: without the pin, yarn-berry defaults to PnP and the arkor runtime can't resolve modules through PnP. When `--use-yarn` runs against an **existing** non-empty directory and no `.yarnrc.yml` is present, the scaffolder deliberately does **not** drop one in (writing `nodeLinker: node-modules` at the root of an unfamiliar project could flip install mode for an enclosing yarn-berry workspace deliberately on PnP). Whether it then surfaces a yarn-berry caveat advisory depends on whether a positive yarn-berry signal is detected: an ancestor `.yarnrc.yml` or `.yarn/` directory, a corepack `packageManager: yarn@2+` field declared anywhere up the tree, or `yarn --version` reporting yarn 2+. Yarn-classic users see no caveat (PnP isn't a yarn 1 concern, so there's nothing to nudge them about). An existing `.yarnrc.yml` is left untouched: already-`node-modules` is a no-op, a non-default `nodeLinker:` produces a conflict warning, and a missing `nodeLinker:` key surfaces the same berry caveat (the file's existence is itself a yarn-berry signal, since yarn 1 reads `.yarnrc`, not `.yarnrc.yml`). Skipped entirely for explicit non-yarn pms (including the common `npm create arkor` flow, where UA detection lands on npm).
 - **`pnpm-workspace.yaml`** is created when pnpm is the plausible package manager (`--use-pnpm`, `npm_config_user_agent` resolves to pnpm (e.g. `pnpm create arkor`), or pm-detection failed AND the target is a fresh empty directory) AND no ancestor directory already declares one. When a target already has the file and pnpm is plausible, it is *patched* in place: `esbuild: false` is merged into the existing top-level `allowBuilds:` (other keys, comments, and entries are preserved). Skipped for `--use-npm` / `--use-yarn` / `--use-bun` (and likewise the `npm create` / `yarn create` / `bun create` flows that resolve via UA) and inside pnpm monorepo subdirs (the parent's workspace file governs; we never shadow it).
