Session 0027.0 — Transcript

App: dev-claude-plugin Start: 2026-06-07T14-25 (PST) End: 2026-06-07T14-41 (PST) Type: executing-plans Status: FINALIZED Outcome: SHIPPED plugin v0.21.0 — Patchwatch Phase 2B (surface + remediate). PR #21 merged to main (f4e3cf3).

Launch prompt

/goal Patchwatch Phase 2B — in wiggleverse-dev-claude-plugin, add per-app session-start surfacing of open patchwatch Gitea issues (warn + a ready-to-run /goal remediate prompt) and a new wgl-remediate skill (PPE→prod, tests+health gate, close via Fixes #N, plus --all-impacted cross-app), per flotilla-core/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-07-patchwatch-phase2-design.md §4.3–4.4

Plan

Goal: Implement sub-project B (Surface & remediate) of Patchwatch Phase 2 in the dev plugin, per design §4.3–4.4. (Sub-project A — capture/issue-filing in flotilla-core — is a separate effort; B reads/acts on the issues A files.)

Branch: feat/patchwatch-phase2b-surface-remediate off origin/main (plugin v0.20.0). The pre-existing feat/two-session-artifact-collections branch is unrelated design work, left untouched.

1. §4.3 Surface — fail-open SessionStart hook hooks/patchwatch-notice (matcher startup|clear, alongside gate + feedback-notice): per-repo, query the repo's open patchwatch issues → warning + /goal remediate open patchwatch issues prompt. Wired in hooks.json.
2. Deterministic layer (§4.2) — skills/wgl-remediate/scripts/list-patchwatch.sh
   • set-patchwatch-status.sh (thin gitea-api.sh wrappers).
3. §4.4 Act — skills/wgl-remediate/SKILL.md: this-app default + --all-impacted, PPE→prod tests+health gate, close via Fixes #N. Not a gate-lifter.
4. Docs + version — README, CLAUDE.md hooks 4→5, plugin.json 0.20.0→0.21.0.
5. Branch → PR → merge (autonomous default).

Pre-state

• Opened on branch feat/two-session-artifact-collections (plugin v0.18.0, unrelated in-flight design work — left untouched), 16 commits behind origin/main (v0.20.0). Started Patchwatch work fresh from origin/main.
• Three stale --INPROGRESS placeholders in the app's history at claim time (0020, 0021, 0025) — not flagged ENDED-UNFINALIZED; treated as dead (work had proceeded past them to 0026). Warned and proceeded per the autonomous default.
• Session-history claim converged on 0027.
• Design source of truth: flotilla-core/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-07-patchwatch-phase2-design.md (read in full; §3 D1–D9 locked, §4.3–4.4 the deliverables, §5 build order A → B → sweep → C).

Turn-by-turn arc

1. Session gate / claim. Classified the opening /goal as an executing-plans (coding) session; invoked wgl-executing-plans; peeked, gated (warn+proceed), and claimed 0027. Seeded the transcript Plan block.
2. Studied precedents. Read the feedback-notice hook + hooks.json, gitea-api.sh, list-feedback.sh / set-feedback-status.sh, the wgl-dev-plugin-review-feedback SKILL, resolve-app.py, and DEPLOY-FLOTILLA.md — Phase 2B mirrors the feedback loop's shape (a fail-open SessionStart notice + a read/write script pair + an "act" skill).
3. Branched feat/patchwatch-phase2b-surface-remediate off origin/main.
4. Wrote the deterministic layer. list-patchwatch.sh (resolve owner/repo from git origin; query open patchwatch issues; --json/--count/--notice modes) and set-patchwatch-status.sh (idempotent label-ensure, add/remove label, comment, optional close).
5. Wrote the hook hooks/patchwatch-notice (per-repo, fail-open; delegates the query+notice to list-patchwatch.sh --notice, bounded by WGL_PATCHWATCH_MAX_TIME=3); wired it into hooks.json.
6. Tested — two bugs caught and fixed:
   • Gitea silently discards a labels=patchwatch filter when that label doesn't exist in the repo, returning all issues (the plugin repo's 4 feedback issues came back). Fix: always filter client-side in jq; keep the server labels= only as an optimization.
   • The --notice jq fallback .title was operating on the piped (captured) value, not the issue object → "Cannot index string". Fix: restructure with sub(...) + split(" ")[0] over each object. Re-tested: no-findings path (count 0, empty notice, exit 0), positive filter (fixture: patchwatch-only, multi-label, PR-exclusion), notice rendering ("vitest #42, tqdm #43, h11 #50"), hook fail-open paths, valid JSON emission, set -u array safety, exec bits.
7. Wrote the wgl-remediate skill (§4.4): this-app default flow + --all-impacted, the empirical PPE→prod gate (D2/D3), the repo-roles nuance (fix the lockfile-owning repo; the deployment pin is a separate rollout repo), pointers to DEPLOY-FLOTILLA.md + handbook §8/§9, headless-ready note, common mistakes.
8. Docs + version. README skills row + Patchwatch-surfacing section; CLAUDE.md hooks 4→5 + patchwatch notes; plugin.json 0.20.0→0.21.0 + patchwatch keyword.
9. Shipped. Commit 6022822, pushed, PR #21 opened + merged (f4e3cf3) via the Gitea API (autonomous default). Synced local main, deleted the branch.
10. Finalized (memory + this transcript).

Cut state

• origin/main at f4e3cf3, plugin source v0.21.0. Local main clean and in sync. Feature branch deleted.
• New: hooks/patchwatch-notice, skills/wgl-remediate/{SKILL.md,scripts/list-patchwatch.sh,scripts/set-patchwatch-status.sh}. Modified: hooks/hooks.json, CLAUDE.md, README.md, .claude-plugin/plugin.json.
• Not yet exercisable live: no real patchwatch issues exist until sub-project A (capture, in flotilla-core) files them. The positive end-to-end hook fire and the API write paths validate during the first-run sweep.
• Cache lags as usual — operator re-install needed to make 0.21.0's hook + skill live in the plugin.

Deferred decisions

No low-confidence calls were flagged this session — the design was locked (§3 D1–D9) and the goal was concrete.

Self-noted design calls (not low-confidence, recorded for transparency):

• Per-repo hook gating via natural token-absence rather than an explicit host allowlist: in a non-Wiggleverse repo, gitea-api.sh finds no Keychain token and bails before any network call, so the hook stays silent — no separate host gate needed.
• Client-side label filter as the source of truth (server labels= is only a hint), because Gitea discards the filter for an absent label.
• B owns creation of the status:remediating label (idempotent ensure in set-patchwatch-status.sh), so B doesn't depend on capture (A) having pre-created status labels.

Operator plate

• Re-install the plugin to make 0.21.0 live (/plugin marketplace update + install + /reload-plugins). The patchwatch-notice hook activates on the next new session in a repo that has open patchwatch issues.
• The whole Phase-2 mechanism only comes alive once sub-project A (capture) is built in flotilla-core and files real findings — that's the next goal.

Next-session prompt

/goal Patchwatch Phase 2 — sub-project A (Capture), in the flotilla-core repo: add gitea.py issue create/list/close/label, a new `flotilla-core patchwatch sync <deployment>` reconcile verb (dedup on (layer,package,advisory), route to the lockfile-owning repo, accumulate affected-deployments, self-heal/auto-close), bot-token issues:write, SPEC.md §12.x "Patchwatch Phase 2" written first, and tests against a faked Gitea API — per flotilla-core/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-07-patchwatch-phase2-design.md §4.1/§5. (Then the first-run sweep validates 2B, then C = radar per deployment.)

(Run that /goal from the flotilla-core repo, not the plugin. Plugin-internal alternatives if a future session works here instead: SP2 /goal feedback orchestrator; the artifact-pipeline reconciliation impl [design on branch feat/two-session-artifact-collections, rebase onto main first]; worktrees effort A impl. See the project memory note.)
