Keep the Gate-B cycle across a WIP amend --no-edit (0.13.2) - #30
Conversation
The hook recognized a WIP commit only by `-m "wip…"` in the Bash command, so `git commit --amend --no-edit` on a `WIP:` commit - which keeps the WIP message - was read as a real commit, and PostToolUse cleared the Gate-B fingerprint, pass count and fresh count. Reproduced under sh and dash in a throwaway repository before the fix. is_wip_commit now also accepts an allow-listed plain form: one line of exactly `git commit` followed only by --amend, --no-edit (both required), --no-verify, -a, --all, -q or --quiet; no quote, #, backslash or shell metacharacter; no custom core.commentChar/commentString; and HEAD's subject in the hook's repository starting with "wip". Every other spelling resets as before, the safe direction under invariant 2. An allow-list because Gate B found a new bypass in each deny-list: quoted, split and abbreviated message flags, -e, git -C, jq-free truncation at an escaped quote, comments, pathspec decoys, --no-amend, and global -c. Section 19b of codex-gate.test.sh covers the positive case and every refused form; each repair's new assertions were shown to fail on the previous hook. todos.md records what stays open. dev-workflow 0.13.1 -> 0.13.2. Gate B: six logical passes; closed on pass 6, Blocker- and Major-free at the floor. Passes 1-5 were full calls; pass 6 was two sequential calls (spec, then quality) against the same base and head ids, so the hook counted seven calls for six passes. In pass 5 both branches wrote the spec file's content from one reviewer (the quality branch's finding); both files were well-formed and the combined finding set is the same. Pass 4 withdrew global `git -c` support that pass 1 had asked for (a require/withdraw pair, one tell; the tell threshold is two). Collected, not repaired: pass 6's Minor (the todos.md annotation omits the comment-character condition); pass 1's Minor that `git -c ... commit --amend --no-edit` still resets.

…review) Greptile on PR #30: a prepare-commit-msg or commit-msg hook can rewrite the message of `git commit --amend --no-edit`, while the new exemption read HEAD's WIP subject before the commit and so suppressed the Gate-B reminder for what became a real closing commit (reproduced; --no-verify does not skip prepare-commit-msg). The exemption now also refuses when core.hooksPath is set at all, or when the default hooks directory holds a prepare-commit-msg or commit-msg hook; hook contents are not read. The older -m "wip…" path has the same exposure and is recorded as open in todos.md, not changed here. Section 19c tests the real lifecycle - PreToolUse, an actual amend, PostToolUse - under sh and dash: no message hook (WIP kept, cycle kept), aborted amend (cycle kept), rewriting prepare-commit-msg, rejecting commit-msg, core.hooksPath, and a newline-ending core.hooksPath. It runs with no global or system git config and in a fresh hooks directory, the original moved aside and restored, so it cannot write to a developer's real or template-linked hooks. CHANGELOG and todos.md state every condition, the comment character and hooks ones included. Gate B: three logical passes, each two sequential calls (spec, then quality) against the same base and head ids; closed on pass 3, Blocker- and Major-free at the floor. Collected, not repaired: pass 3's Minor that section 19b's positive assertions fail when a developer has a global core.hooksPath (not set here or in CI); pass 1's Minor that CLAUDE.md §5 and docs/architecture.md describe WIP recognition by message rather than by command (recorded in todos.md).

- Line 1: Make lifecycle tests isolate Git hooks before their first test commit:
set a repository-local core.hooksPath to a dedicated sandbox directory, and
restore that isolated setting after the custom-hooksPath scenario. Add a
regression using isolated global Git configuration and sentinel hooks to verify
test execution leaves user hooks and permissions untouched. The consolidated
sites refer to review records, not additional code locations; no direct change
is needed in either record.
- Line 3: Update the WIP counter-preservation guidance in CLAUDE.md, the
scaffolded instructions, and docs/architecture.md to qualify that preservation
applies only to commands recognized by the hook. Document the conservative amend
--no-edit conditions: HEAD already has a WIP subject, and no configured hooks
path, comment-character setting, or commit-message hook can affect the message.
Keep CLAUDE.md and the scaffolded template synchronized.

…#30 review) Greptile's second round on PR #30: a pre-commit hook can install a message hook mid-commit, so refusing only prepare-commit-msg and commit-msg was not enough. The amend exemption now refuses whenever the default hooks directory holds any entry but *.sample files (hidden, non-executable and dangling ones included), or cannot be listed; core.hooksPath is still refused outright. This is deliberately stricter than Git's own definition of an active hook, reads no hook code, and sees the directory only when the hook runs. The -m "wip…" path keeps its older exposure, recorded in todos.md. The test suite now runs with GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL=/dev/null, GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM=1 and an empty GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR from before its first git init, so a developer's core.hooksPath, comment character or template hooks neither change the results nor receive writes (checked by hand with a hostile HOME config and two sentinel hook directories: suite green, sentinels unchanged). Lifecycle cases added: only *.sample files (kept), an amend aborted by a held index.lock with no hooks (kept), and a pre-commit hook that installs a rewriting prepare-commit-msg (reset). The aborting pre-commit case now expects a reset, since under the any-hook rule its presence refuses the exemption. CodeRabbit's requests to edit the historical Codex findings files are not taken: those files record what a pass found. Gate B: one logical pass (spec, then quality, same base and head ids), NO FINDINGS on both branches; closed on the zero-finding exit. No story cited, so no evidence entry is owed. cycle r06l8px6lh; floor 3 per none; hook reminder threshold absent cycle r06l8px6lh; Gate B (passes 1, codex): Findings 0. Blockers 0. Majors 0.

…iew) CodeRabbit on PR #30: GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL and GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM do not clear command-scope config handed down through GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS or GIT_CONFIG_COUNT, so an inherited core.hooksPath could point at an external directory; 19c's guard would then fail while its lifecycle cases still ran real commits that execute those hooks. The suite now unsets both variables before its first git init, and a failed 19c setup exits the suite instead of continuing. Checked by hand: with GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS pointing core.hookspath at an external sentinel hook, the suite passes and the sentinel is unchanged. Test harness only; no hook change.
