R82.K Verification — colibri-verification body + stale tasks-domain comments

1. Commits in this slice 

a7345a6a audit(r82-k-skill-comments): inventory skill body + stale code comments
317dec47 contract(r82-k-skill-comments): behavioral contract
56973e1f packet(r82-k-skill-comments): execution plan
6937e425 fix(r82-k-skill-comments): strike phantoms from skill body + stale comments
<this>    verify(r82-k-skill-comments): build+lint+test green at 1123/1123

Base: main @ b88d7ca0 (post-R81 Wave 1 seal; 1085 baseline + 38 κ P1.1.1 = 1123 tests).

2. Sweeps

2.1 Contract invariants (§2.1 of docs/contracts/r82-k-skill-comments-contract.md) 

$ grep -cE "roadmap_|unified_|task_eisenhower|task_deps|task_create_batch|task_link_roadmap|gsd_|context_|memory_pack|thought_plan|thought_decide|audit_session_set_context|unified_backup|merkle_attest" .agents/skills/colibri-verification/SKILL.md
0

$ grep -cE "task_cancel|task_link|task_unlink" src/domains/tasks/repository.ts
0

$ grep -cE "task_transition" src/domains/tasks/state-machine.ts
0

All three must-be-0 sweeps return 0. S1, S2, S3 pass.

2.2 Positive prose sweep (§6.2 of contract) 

$ grep -cE "server_ping|server_health|skill_list|thought_record|audit_verify_chain|task_create|task_get|task_update|task_list|task_next_actions|audit_session_start|merkle_finalize|merkle_root" .agents/skills/colibri-verification/SKILL.md
58

Must be ≥ 3 (slice DoD). Actual 58. Body references every shipped tool across the Quick Reference, Pre-Execution Checklist, Execution Safety, Post-Execution Completion, Phase Acceptance Criteria tables, Verification Tools Quick Reference JavaScript block, and Common Verification Failures.

2.3 R76.H2 reality stamp preserved 

$ sed -n '9p' .agents/skills/colibri-verification/SKILL.md | grep -c "14-tool surface"
1

Line 9 still contains “14-tool surface” — verbatim preservation of the R76.H2 top-of-file reality stamp confirmed. No change to lines 1–10.

2.4 R82 reconcile stamp appended 

$ grep -c "Updated R82" .agents/skills/colibri-verification/SKILL.md
1

One R82 stamp appended at the bottom of the file after the “See Also” section.

3. Build / lint / test gates

All three gates run at verification time.

3.1 Gate 1 — npm run build 

$ npm run build
> colibri@0.0.1 build
> tsc

(exit 0 — no TS errors)

3.2 Gate 2 — npm run lint 

$ npm run lint
> colibri@0.0.1 lint
> eslint src

(exit 0 — 0 errors, 0 warnings)

3.3 Gate 3 — npm test 

$ npm test
...
Test Suites: 27 passed, 27 total
Tests:       1123 passed, 1123 total
Snapshots:   0 total
Time:        24.346 s
Ran all test suites.

1123/1123 green across 27 suites. Matches contract baseline (1085 pre-R81 + 38 κ P1.1.1 bigint bps helpers from R81 Wave 1 = 1123).

3.4 Flake note

The pre-existing startup — subprocess smoke flake (documented in memory project_r77_pages_finish_2026_04_19.md and CLAUDE.md §5) appeared once during initial Step 4 test run. Isolated retry via node --experimental-vm-modules node_modules/jest/bin/jest.js src/__tests__/startup.test.ts --no-coverage returned 40/40 green. The full-suite rerun immediately after passed clean at 1123/1123. Flake is unrelated to this slice (no state-machine / startup code was touched).

Full-suite rerun evidence:

Test Suites: 27 passed, 27 total
Tests:       1123 passed, 1123 total
Snapshots:   0 total
Time:        35.225 s (first clean full run)
Time:        24.346 s (verification full run)

Both full-suite runs after Step 4 commit are clean green. The flake did not recur.

4.3 .agents/skills/colibri-verification/SKILL.md

Two edit regions:

  1. HERITAGE block rewrite (lines 11–23). Replaced the 14-bullet donor enumeration with a prose paragraph + 8 bullets that describe donor families in plain English and enumerate what Phase 0 actually ships (β 5 tools, ζ 3 tools, η 3 tools, server liveness, no analysis/RAG/memory/context/info/shutdown/unified surface). All 14 phantom-regex alternatives eliminated.

  2. Footer stamp appended after the existing “See Also” section, describing the R82.K reconcile without reproducing the regex token sequence.

Lines 1–10 (frontmatter + header + R76.H2 reality stamp) and lines 25–296 (body from §Quick Reference through §See Also) are byte-identical to pre-edit.

5. Acceptance criteria — each item

10 src/ diffs are comment-only §4.1, §4.2
11 SKILL.md structure (Quick Reference through See Also) preserved §4.3

All 11 acceptance criteria satisfied.

6. Out-of-scope observations carried forward

Flagged during audit (§7 of contract), not addressed in this slice:

  • repository.ts comment still mentions “(future)” framing at one remaining spot (the Consumers (shipped) rewrite clears it, but the “Consumed by (future):” idiom lived in only one block comment — now rewritten).
  • Memory .agents/ Role prose in CLAUDE.md §9.2 still says “23 canonical colibri-* skills” while actual is 22. Not in slice K scope.

summary: Struck 14 phantom-regex alternatives from the colibri-verification skill
  body (HERITAGE note rewritten to describe donor families in prose rather than
  enumerate as code literals; body + R76.H2 top stamp preserved verbatim; R82
  footer stamp appended). Updated top block comment in src/domains/tasks/
  repository.ts to list only the 5 shipped β tools. Updated two comment blocks
  in src/domains/tasks/state-machine.ts (file header + InvalidTransitionError
  JSDoc) to describe the live task_update status-routing path instead of the
  phantom task_transition MCP tool. Zero logic / type / schema / export change
  in either src/ file.
blockers: none
