gstack #1431 — Unicode safety rule in AskUserQuestion format

  • Source: v1.32.0.0 fix wave: 7 community PRs + 5 gate-eval hardenings garrytan/gstack#1431 (v1.32.0.0 fix wave)
  • Target skills: prod-review, eng-review, design-review, code-review, qa
  • Change: Added item 5 to the AskUserQuestion format in all 5 review skills:

    Write non-ASCII characters (CJK, accented text) as literal UTF-8 — never as \uXXXX escape sequences. The tool pipe is UTF-8-native; manual escaping introduces wrong characters.

  • Why: gstack's direct upstream #1431 added this self-check after observing models incorrectly encoding CJK strings via reflexive \u-escaping. Affects any AskUserQuestion call involving project names, strings, or user-facing content with non-ASCII characters. Clean one-line addition, no infrastructure dependencies.

gstack #1504 — Implementation Tasks synthesis in review skills

  • Source: v1.38.1.0 fix wave: surrogate-safe page captures (#1440), Implementation Tasks across review skills (#1454), root-level artifact patterns (#1452) garrytan/gstack#1504 (v1.38.1.0 fix wave, issue #1454 "no actionable steps from reviews")
  • Scope: plan-ceo-review → prod-review, plan-eng-review → eng-review, plan-design-review → design-review, plan-devex-review (no claudebert equivalent)
  • What it does: Adds ## Implementation Tasks section to each review skill that emits JSONL task artifacts with schema (component, files, title, priority, effort) to ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/tasks-{phase}-{datetime}.jsonl for autoplan aggregation.
  • Why deferred: The JSONL output format and ~/.gstack/projects/ path are gstack-specific infrastructure. Claudebert already writes test plan artifacts (~/.claudebert/projects/) from eng-review. Porting the concept requires a judgment call on: (a) should claudebert adopt a JSONL task format? (b) what replaces the autoplan aggregator? This is valuable but ambiguous — not a clean text replacement.

gstack — AskUserQuestion decision-brief format upgrade

  • Not tied to a single PR — evolved across multiple gstack releases
  • What it does: Current gstack review skills use a structured D<N>/ELI10/Stakes/Completeness/pros-cons(✅❌)/Net format with a 10-item self-check before every AskUserQuestion call. Significantly richer than claudebert's current 4-step format.
  • Why deferred: Substantial restructuring of the user-facing decision format across all review skills. After stripping gstack-specific parts (Conductor MCP tool resolution, AUTO_DECIDE references), the core format is cleanly portable — but the scope/style change is too large to auto-apply without user review. Recommend a dedicated PR.

gstack #1512 — EXIT PLAN MODE GATE
