Project

Verdict: READY

Re-review Context

Prior review (review-511-2026-03-28) found 6 issues: missing template sections (Repo, Checklist, Context as standalone header), duplicate ACs, unlisted test commands, and embedded content not matching template structure. All 6 were addressed in the body rewrite. This re-review verifies the fixes and checks for any new issues.

Template Completeness

Checked against template-issue (Task type — Scope replaced by standalone sections per convention):

[x] Type — Task
[x] Lineage — Board, Story, Arch listed
[x] Repo — forgejo_admin/claude-custom
[x] Context — standalone section, explains no-CI validation model
[x] User Story — proper As/I want/So that format
[x] Acceptance Criteria — 4 items, no duplicates
[x] Test Expectations — 2 items with guidance
[x] Constraints — 2 items
[x] Checklist — 5 items
[x] Related — board + related issue
[x] PRs merged — 9 PRs listed (extra section, acceptable for validation tasks)

All required template sections present. Prior issues resolved.

Traceability

[x] story:pm-scope — platform operator validation story, present on board item
[x] arch:hooks — hooks architecture component, present on board item
[x] Forgejo issue — forgejo_admin/claude-custom#208, open

All three traceability legs present and correct.

File Targets

N/A — Task type. No file targets required. Validation task does not modify code.

Repo Placement

OK. Issue filed on forgejo_admin/claude-custom. All 9 PRs are on the same repo. No cross-repo concerns.

Dependencies

[x] All 9 PRs merged to main — satisfied
[x] ~/claude-custom checkout on main — verified (HEAD at 26293e8)
[ ] Session restart — pending (requires human action, correctly marked MANUAL in AC 1)

Board context: Item #478 (in_progress, same repo) is independent spike work. No blockers.

Acceptance Criteria

4 ACs — clean, no duplicates (prior review's AC 5/6 duplicates removed):

AC 1: Session restart without hook load errors — marked MANUAL, correct. Verifiable by human.
AC 2: All 5 test suites pass — explicit commands listed. See nit below about one incorrect filename.
AC 3: No regressions in agent spawn — now actionable ("spawn a test dev/qa agent"). Acceptable.
AC 4: Hook enforcement verified — specific test named (check-board-advance.sh). Verifiable.

All ACs are agent-verifiable or correctly marked as manual.

Blast Radius

Hooks are hardlinked from ~/claude-custom/hooks/ to ~/.claude/hooks/. Changes are live immediately. 9 PRs touched 17+ files (hooks, settings, agent docs, test files). Blast radius is system-wide (hooks fire on every tool use across all projects). No CI gate — manual validation only. Rollback via git revert is straightforward.

Decomposition

No decomposition needed. This is a validation task with zero code changes. Running all tests takes <30 seconds. Single agent pass is appropriate.

Recommendation

Prior review's 6 recommendations — all resolved:

[BODY] Add ### Repo — DONE
[BODY] Add ### Checklist — DONE
[BODY] Restructure into proper template sections — DONE
[BODY] Remove duplicate ACs — DONE (6→4, no duplicates)
[BODY] Add explicit test commands — DONE
[BODY] Mark AC 1 as manual — DONE

New nit found (non-blocking):

[BODY] Nit: AC 2 lists test_check_board_item.sh (if exists) — this file does NOT exist. The actual 5th test suite is test_block_groupme_send.sh, which is missing from the list. Also, test_validate_branch_name.sh DOES exist, so its "(if exists)" qualifier is unnecessary. Recommend replacing test_check_board_item.sh (if exists) with test_block_groupme_send.sh and removing "(if exists)" from test_validate_branch_name.sh. Non-blocking because an executing agent can discover test files via ls tests/.

Verdict: READY. Scope is solid, template complete, traceability intact, ACs verifiable. The test filename nit is cosmetic — agent can self-correct at execution time.
