## Launch prompt

_(launch prompt not captured at claim time)_

## Deferred decisions

_Autonomous-mode low-confidence calls the driver made and would have
liked operator input on. Appended as the session runs; surfaced at
finalize. Empty if none._

## Plan

**Mission:** fix & close 5 Gitea issues on the plugin tracker — all touching the
capture workflow — in one session. Worktree: `session-0044-capture` (off
origin/main @ e4441f6, v0.29.0). Concurrent sessions 0035/0040-0043 share the
canonical checkout → isolated worktree per §5.4.

**Keystone:** a *filed-marker* HTML comment that `capture-issues.sh` stamps into
a draft after filing. It powers resumability (#36), safe discard at finalize
(#63), and is preserved across the publish step (#35).

- **#36 Resumable capture** — `list-unfiled-drafts.sh` (deterministic detector:
  issues/*.md lacking the marker) + a resume step in `wgl-capture` that adopts an
  unfinished draft (INV-7 carry-forward, INV-3 re-scan).
- **#35 Publish step** — `publish-capture.sh` (opt-in commit+push of an approved
  draft to the content repo, mirrors submit-spec.sh) + skill wiring; INV-8 stays
  the default.
- **#63 Publish-or-discard at finalize** — finalize capture addendum + wgl-capture
  Step 7 disposition: FILED drafts → autonomous discard / careful ask publish|
  discard; UNFILED drafts → never auto-discard, reported as resumable. Never end
  dirty silently. Supersedes the "leave for the Author" wording.
- **#26 Capture quality** — `references/capture-quality.md` (per-field one-liners +
  ≥1 worked example, anti-pattern list, one fully-worked sample per type) + a
  value-check in the skill that challenges tautological framing.
- **#64 Scale up-front design to issue type** — add `type/bug` to the taxonomy
  (ensure-capture-labels.sh, capture-issues.sh, skill), a canonical handbook
  section (engineering repo, isolated worktree → its own PR), and thin pointers in
  session-gate.md + the two init skills.

Two PRs: plugin (issues #26/#35/#36/#63/#64 code) + engineering handbook (#64 doc).
Version bump on the plugin. Verify via shell tests/dry-runs before closing.

<!-- WGL-SESSION-ENDED-UNFINALIZED -->

> This placeholder holds only the last local checkpoint; the rich finalize

> replaces this placeholder with the finalized record.

## Deferred decisions

- **Handbook §3.4 title mismatch (minor).** My init-skill prose cites the rule as
  handbook "Required up-front design scales with issue type"; a concurrent session
  merged the canonical §3.4 first (PR #27) titled "The up-front-thinking gate —
  issue type decides the artifact" with the same R1/R2/R3 + type/bug. The §3.4
  reference and meaning are correct; only the descriptive title differs. Left as a
  cosmetic follow-up rather than spinning another PR amid heavy concurrent churn.
- **Capture RFC §4 type/bug line.** The design (§4.3) asked to also add type/bug to
  the Capture RFC §4 taxonomy, but that RFC lives on the unmerged
  `proposals/capture-phase` branch. Handbook §3.4 is the load-bearing canonical
  home; the RFC line is a deferred sub-item when that branch merges.
- **My engineering PR #28 was a duplicate** of the already-merged PR #27 (SLICE-2);
  closed it and deleted the branch. #64 is fully satisfied by §3.4 (PR #27) + the
  plugin gates (PR #70).

## Pre-state

- App `dev-claude-plugin`, plugin source repo (its own content repo + marketplace).
- origin/main at start: `e4441f6` (v0.29.0). Operator opened with a 5-issue list:
  #63, #35, #36, #26, #64 — "fix these and close them once implemented & verified."
- **Extreme §5.4 concurrency:** sessions 0035, 0040–0043 in flight on the shared
  canonical checkout at claim time; 0044 worked in an isolated worktree throughout.

## Turn-by-turn arc

1. **Classified** the prompt as planning-and-executing; ran `wgl-planning-and-executing`,
   claimed session **0044** (peek showed 5 in-flight; autonomous → warn + proceed).
2. **Surveyed** the 5 issues (Gitea API) + the untracked drafts in the checkout;
   designed a coherent plan: a *filed-marker* keystone unifying #35/#36/#63, a
   bundled quality guide for #26, and the issue-type gate for #64.
3. Set up an **isolated worktree** `session-0044-capture` off origin/main.
4. **Keystone** — `capture-issues.sh` stamps a filed-marker after a successful
   create (+ `type/bug`, `--no-stamp-file`); `ensure-capture-labels.sh` gains
   `type/bug`. New `list-unfiled-drafts.sh` (detector) + `publish-capture.sh`
   (opt-in publish, mirrors submit-spec.sh) + `test-capture-drafts.sh`.
5. **Discovered** (via a memory update) that **#64 already had a graduated design**
   (`specs/2026-06-10-issue-type-design-gates-design.md`, 0040/0041). Rebased onto
   it and implemented #64 *per the design*: `check-issue-eligibility.sh` (R1/R2/R3,
   fail-closed) + `test-issue-eligibility.sh`, wired into both init skills' new
   Step 8.5; no gate-hook change (design D5).
6. **Skill prose** — `wgl-capture` Step 2.5 (resume), Step 5 value-check (#26),
   Step 6.5 (publish), Step 7 disposition (#63); finalize capture addendum (#63);
   issues/README.md lifecycle; `references/capture-quality.md` (#26); design-doc
   §7.2 marked the follow-ups shipped; INV-8 nuanced.
7. **Handbook §3.4** drafted in an isolated engineering worktree → but a concurrent
   session (0047) had **already merged §3.4** (eng PR #27 `f49b785`). Closed my
   duplicate eng PR #28 and deleted its branch.
8. **Verified** — 39/39 offline tests green; publish-capture e2e vs a temp bare
   repo (dry-run/publish/idempotent); `type/bug` label provisioned on the tracker;
   JSON valid; clean diff (15 files, only my changes).
9. **Shipped** — rebased onto the twice-moved origin/main (0.30.0/0.32.0 taken →
   **0.33.0**), plugin PR **#70** merged `ff79cec`. Closed all 5 issues (#35 auto;
   #36/#63/#26/#64 manually with resolution comments).

## Cut state

- origin/main = `ff79cec` (v0.33.0). All 5 issues closed. Eng §3.4 already on main
  (PR #27); my dup eng PR #28 closed. Worktrees: plugin `session-0044-capture`
  (merged, to be removed at finalize); engineering worktree already removed.
- **Re-install needed** to make 0.33.0 live (downstream caches lag by design).

## Operator plate

- 0.33.0 closed #35/#36/#63/#26/#64. Re-install (`claude plugin marketplace update`
  + `claude plugin update <name>@<marketplace>`, then restart/`/clear`) to go live.
- Minor deferred items logged above (handbook §3.4 title wording; Capture RFC §4
  `type/bug` line on the unmerged proposals branch).

## Next-session prompt

```
/goal feedback
```

(Patchwatch rfc-app remediation is DONE per session ohm/0095; the high-leverage
next move is the ~7 open plugin-feedback issues, which the escalation hook now
nudges loudly.)

**Next /goal:** feedback
