The mandatory Commit Message Format block hard-coded 'Claude Opus 4.6', which stayed stale for months after the model moved on. Replace with the generic 'Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>' and note that the harness-appended model-identifier variant is equally valid. Pinned versions are the root cause of this drift class (CLAUDE-CLEANUP.md section 4).

Phase 1 follow-up: update the active instruction layer (CLAUDE.md, project
structure rule, DECISIONS.md redirect, agent personalities, skill docs) to
reference governance/{decisions,questions,rejected}/<domain>.md instead of the
retired flat decisions/*.md layout.
Path references only — command-surface references (tooling/db/decision*,
decisions-sync, Makefile targets, clerk) are repointed to the pql CLI in the
Phase 4 consumer cutover. Historical archives (docs/sprints, docs/discussions,
docs/workshops) keep their point-in-time decisions/ paths; the separate
whatsinagame/ template distribution is untouched. Agent-memory is gitignored
and out of scope.
The agent/skill repath was applied by tooling/pql-migrate/repath_references.py
(ordered, meaning-preserving replacements; bare-dir rule uses a negative
lookbehind so it can't corrupt a freshly-created governance/decisions/ path),
committed for provenance. CLAUDE.md, project-structure.md, and DECISIONS.md
were hand-edited (structural tree/table changes).

The per-commit clerk had three flaws, exposed by a 20-commit push where 6 of 7
rejections were false (incl. a CHANGELOG-only commit):
1. No-verdict / max-turns / timeout defaulted to REJECTED — an unfinished review
read as 'hard contradiction found'. Now a third outcome, INCOMPLETE, which is
non-blocking (the push proceeds with a warning); only a real REJECTED blocks.
2. Turn/time budget too tight (6 turns / 150s) for decision-heavy commits. Raised
defaults to 15 turns / 300s, and the prompt now biases to APPROVED when no
concrete contradiction is found ('unsure' means APPROVED, never REJECTED).
3. The skip valve matched its own feature commit because it scanned for the token
anywhere in the message. Moved to a trailer-line match so prose/subject mentions
no longer trip it.
Pre-push hook updated to treat INCOMPLETE as a non-blocking warning. The git-commit
skill documents the trailer form.

A commit whose message contains the token [clerk-skip] is auto-approved by
the pre-push clerk without spawning an agent. Intended for bulk content/data
commits — e.g. shipping thousands of generated planetary description files —
where D-record review is moot and would only burn agents on noise.
Documented in the /git-commit skill with the caveat: never use it on commits
that touch decisions/, code, or ticket-bearing work.

Add a mandatory step between assessing changes and grouping commits:
surface any modified/untracked files that weren't touched in the current
session and ask the user whether to include them.

The in-universe setting name is "the Settled Reach", not
"Commonwealth" (Hamilton's protected IP). Updated all 17 agent
description lines and intro paragraphs, plus file-specific
references in araminta, gore, ozzie, paula, and tiger.
Kept book references in miri.md (inspiration) and si.md (namesake).
Also updated pr-review and git-commit skill references.

Move CLI reference material, endpoint configs, and orchestration
patterns to .claude/rules/ (auto-loaded). CLAUDE.md now focuses on
project identity, safety rules, and workflow conventions.
Update cross-references in ticket, docs-search, and git-commit
skills to point to new rules/ locations.

Adopts the whatsinagame naming pattern where the domain comes
first and the action second (e.g. pr-review, sprint-start,
audio-gen). Updated all cross-references in settings, agents,
docs, and inter-skill references.
12 renames: commit→git-commit, create-skill→skill-create,
gen-audio→audio-gen, gen-image→image-gen, plan-sprint→sprint-plan,
push-pr→pr-push, render-sprite→sprite-gen, review-pr→pr-review,
search-docs→docs-search, start-sprint→sprint-start,
start-workshop→workshop-start.
