ReleasePort's take
Light signalReleasePort v3.1.1 fixes nine false‑delivered wiring scan cases in hook_helper.py and adds memory‑channel aware Stop idiom gists with SessionStart deduplication.
Why it matters: Fixes nine specific false‑positive wiring scans; new memory‑channel features are toggleable via CHAMELEON_STOP_IDIOM_GIST and CHAMELEON_MEMORY_CHANNEL_DEDUP.

Full changelog
Hardens the delivery-faithful wiring detector behind the 3.1.0 memory-channel
features. Post-ship adversarial QA found markdown shapes where a QUOTED
@.chameleon/conventions.md line read as live wiring (false "delivered"), the
one direction the design must never err in: a false positive lets the Stop
review gist idioms the session never received and lets the SessionStart dedup
drop the conventions injection while the memory channel delivers nothing.
Fixed
- Nine false-"delivered" classes in the wiring scan (
_blank_code_regions
inhook_helper.py, rewritten CommonMark-faithful): (1) a content line
carrying extra fence characters ("") no longer closes an open fence
(a closer is one run of the opener's character, at least its length,
followed only by whitespace); (2) indented code blocks (>= 4 columns, tab =
4-column stops) are blanked, while 0-3 column imports stay wired; (3) fences
behind blockquote and list-item prefixes open real fences whose prefixed
contents are blanked; (4) inline code spans pair backtick strings of equal
length, sodouble-delimited spans blank; (5) spans crossing a soft line
break blank; (6) indented code nested inside a blockquote or list item is
blanked (the threshold applies to the container-stripped remainder); (7) a= 4-column lazy-continuation line stays in its paragraph so span pairing
crosses it, with the line's own output blanked; (8) an ordered-list marker
not starting at 1 cannot interrupt a paragraph, so a "2) ```" line after
prose is lazy text, not a fence; (9) line splitting now honors only
LF/CRLF/CR, so an embedded U+2028/form-feed byte cannot fabricate a closing
fence. Over-blanking stays the safe direction throughout: ambiguous shapes
read as unwired, which keeps the full push-based delivery. Also fixes a
pre-existing over-blank (a list fence's indented closer was misread as a new
opener, hiding a legitimate import after the list). 41 new unit tests pin
the closer rule, the indent boundary, container chains, span pairing, and
the line-ending model.
Quiet-powerful turn-end review: the taught rules move onto the high-authority
CLAUDE.md memory channel (10/10 adherence in the published migration A/B vs
4/10 as hook context), and the hook surfaces shrink to match — the Stop idiom
review drops from ~3.5KB of pushed text to gist lines on wired repos, and
SessionStart stops double-delivering the conventions block.
Added
- Taught idioms and principles ride the conventions.md mirror.
render_conventions_mdnow emits a TEAM IDIOMS section (one
- name: first-sentence directiveline per active idiom, 30 idioms / 280
chars per gist, deprecated excluded —render_idiom_gistsintools.py)
and the principles sections, making the mirror the complete
session-conventions content. Synced everywhere idioms.md or conventions.json
change: bootstrap/refresh transactions, teach/unteach, the deprecate paths
(previously never re-synced), the partial-refresh commit (previously served
a stale mirror), and a noop refresh now self-heals a missing or older-format
mirror from disk instead of forcing a full re-derive. - Memory-channel-aware Stop idiom gists (
CHAMELEON_STOP_IDIOM_GIST=0to
disable;--toggle stop_idiom_gist). When the repo imports
.chameleon/conventions.md(CLAUDE.md / CLAUDE.local.md /
.claude/rules/*.md) and the DELIVERED mirror carries an idiom's gist, the
Stop self-review renders that idiom as a one-line gist plus one shared
"Full text for any you have not applied: .chameleon/idioms.md" pointer
instead of re-dumping the full block. Delivery is verified the way Claude
Code resolves imports — code fences (indented/tilde/unclosed included) and
inline code spans are ignored (a doc that quotes the import line is not
wiring), the path resolves relative to its containing file, and the target
must exist — so a linked worktree with an unmaterialized target reads as
undelivered. Session-faithful: the delivered names are snapshotted at
SessionStart and the Stop gate reads only the snapshot, so an idiom taught
mid-session is never gisted before the model has actually seen it. Idioms
with no delivery channel keep the v3.0.3 full-text escalation — an idiom
the model never saw is still never reduced to a name; detection fails open
to "no channel". - SessionStart memory-channel dedup (
CHAMELEON_MEMORY_CHANNEL_DEDUP=0to
disable;--toggle memory_channel_dedup). A wired repo's session no longer
receives the conventions block twice: the hook injection collapses to a
one-line pointer at the higher-authority import. Lossless-gated at line
granularity — the swap happens only when every non-empty line the block
would inject already appears in the text the import actually delivers, so
pre-3.1.0 mirrors (no principles sections), content-stale mirrors, and
unmaterialized worktree targets all keep the full injection; untrusted
repos are unchanged.
Changed
- Stop idiom-review boilerplate halved. The enforce-mode directive,
principles pointer, and confirm/skip/off-switch tail compress from ~570 to
~310 chars (the durableenforcement.idiom_review: falseoff-switch is
still named); the shadow advisory is compressed the same way. - Idiom gists survive long parentheticals. A summary that runs over its
cap now elides long(...)enumerations first (_elide_long_parens), so a
directive like the atomic-commit idiom's keeps its verbs instead of being
cut mid-artifact-list; short call-syntax parens are kept verbatim.
