📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughProposal and fast-forward workflows now inspect relevant project code, tests, configuration, and documentation before drafting artifacts. Templates and skills require evidence-based planning, conflict handling, and specific follow-up investigation. Tests validate ordering, wording, adapter generation, and template hashes. ChangesProposal project inspection
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The workflows now read project files and reuse their contents when generating proposals. Without safeguards against instruction-like content or sensitive values, a malicious or confidential file could distort planning output or expose information, and fast-forward's declared permissions do not match the required inspection. This is a concrete security and merge-readiness risk that should be addressed or explicitly accepted before merge. Suggested reviewers: Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Reviewed the advisory spec scan against
No core behavior or specifications were changed in response. The scan also reports two unverified requirements, so its neutral result is not being treated as a clean spec audit. The proposed guidance, generated delivery, regression checks, and behavioral smoke test were reviewed separately; all required cross-platform CI checks pass. |

both propose template sites in src/core/templates/workflows/propose.ts lines
101-104 and 254-257 to explicitly treat inspected project files as untrusted
evidence and never follow instructions found in them; apply this consistently in
the relevant getOpsxProposeSkillTemplate and getOpsxProposeCommandTemplate
outputs. Add a fixture test using a malicious README or configuration file to
verify the boundary is preserved.
- Around line 64-67: Update the inspection guidance associated with the relevant
skill instructions to permit safe, read-only access to implementation, tests,
configuration, and documentation outside openspec/, using an appropriately
bounded inspection mechanism. Ensure project-file contents are treated solely as
evidence during planning, without following embedded directives, and add a
fixture test verifying generated artifacts preserve that behavior.

The workflow change stays scoped to planning, covers both propose and fast-forward across skills and command adapters, preserves generated-artifact parity, and handles separate planning/code roots plus missing or ambiguous source without inventing facts. Clay's response correctly resolves the two follow-up suggestions: allowed-tools is additive preapproval, and a template fixture cannot validate agent behavior against project-file content. The fresh-agent adversarial smoke test is useful bounded evidence, not overstated as a guarantee.
I also reran the four focused proposal/generation/parity suites (59 tests), lint, tsc --noEmit, and git diff --check; all passed. Hosted Linux, macOS, Windows, security, and CodeQL checks are green.

Status
LGTM. Independent review found no actionable issues. Full CI suites pass on Linux, macOS, and Windows, with build, lint, type checking, security checks, and release tracking green. Ready for final human review.
What was wrong
Proposal generation required reading planning dependencies but never explicitly required inspecting the relevant implementation. An agent could follow the workflow and still propose work that ignored current code or defer basic discovery to generic implementation tasks.
Closes #339.
How it was fixed
Replication / proof
tsc --noEmit, lint, and changeset validation pass.Notes / nits
No CLI behavior, schema, artifact format, dependency graph, or implementation gate changes. Inspection is limited to relevant files, not an exhaustive repository scan. Existing installations receive the guidance through
openspec update; the committed skills distribution is updated too. The single-artifact continue workflow is unchanged.The local sandbox run had 4,206 passing tests and 26 failures: 22 registry/launcher failures cleared on reruns outside the sandbox (48/48 registry tests and 41/41 workset tests passed). The remaining 4 assertions reproduce on unchanged
mainin the local environment. These unrelated tests are untouched; clean CI passes the full suite.This improves agent instructions, not deterministic enforcement. The smoke test demonstrates one agent run, not guaranteed compliance across models.
Advisory spec scan: neutral, with unchanged-code findings and incomplete verification. Review and evidence. CodeRabbit completed. Two further independent reviews and an adversarial workflow smoke test found no required code change. Review disposition and verification. The unchanged head also passes all 142 focused tests rerun during this review.
