reorganize

name: reorganize description: | SPEC.md §V cluster + renumber + cite-DAG sweep. Operator-triggered manual clarity-shape pass — distinct from /sdd:compact (token reduction). Triggers when operator invokes /sdd:reorganize or asks to renumber §V, regroup invariants by topic, or tidy §V order. Phrasings: "/sdd:reorganize", "reorganize the spec", "regroup §V by topic", "renumber invariants", "cluster §V rows", "tidy §V order", "taxonomy pass". allowed-tools: AskUserQuestion, Read, Edit, Write, Grep, Bash(git *), Skill model: opus

reorganize — §V cluster + renumber + cite-DAG sweep

Operator-triggered clarity-shape pass over SPEC.md §V section. Cadence is at-most once per major epoch (months) — skill body documents intent, not hard /sdd:check enforcement. Single atomic commit, rollback via git revert.

PREAMBLE

/sdd:reorganize is state-mutator scoped to SPEC.md + .claude/spec-clusters.json + .claude/spec-renumber-map.json + cite-DAG sweep targets (PUBLISHED + REPO-LOCAL + SPEC.md internal + SPEC.archive.md when exists). Operator invokes only — not auto-fire per recipe-step-no-dispatch rule. Owns §V renumber permission carved out of monotonic-id invariant.

Distinct concern from /sdd:compact: compact targets token reduction (folds, archives, trims); reorganize targets clarity shape (cluster + renumber). Reorganize not direct token drop; not fold rows. Writes serialize main-thread per write-serialize invariant; classification reads delegable to sub-agents.

Mutation contract is single commit per atomic-operation discipline; not partial application. Cite-DAG sweep per cite-resolution invariant runs in same commit.

LOAD

1. Read SPEC.md. Missing → "no spec, nothing to reorganize." Stop.
2. Read pilot-spec/SPEC-FORMAT.md every row schema and section catalog.
3. Parse $ARGUMENTS:
   • empty → full cluster + renumber + sweep propose
   • --taxonomy-only → PROPOSE report only, not mutation (mirrors /sdd:compact --dry-run)
4. Discovery probe — repo-agnostic plugin scope per published-scope invariant:
   • (a) <repo>/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json exists → parse plugins[].source via jq (fallback python3 per tooling-preference invariant) → derive {dir-name → plugin-name} map per plugin-name-vs-dir invariant; PUBLISHED scope is {<dir>/**} over each source value.
   • (b) else <repo>/.claude-plugin/plugin.json exists → single-plugin map; PUBLISHED scope is {<repo>/**} minus REPO-LOCAL.
   • (c) else → empty map; sweep targets REPO-LOCAL + SPEC.md internal only.
5. Persist probe — load .claude/spec-clusters.json if exists (cold-start vs delta-propose branch):
   • shape [{cluster:<name>, rows:[{fingerprint:<hash>, current_id:V<n>}, ...]}, ...]
   • per-row key is §V body-text fingerprint (sha256 over row body w/o leading V<n>: prefix), stable across renumber — id-as-key invalidates persist every run.
   • not exist → cold-start path.
6. Renumber-map probe — .claude/spec-renumber-map.json exists → load every context (chain-walk semantics on subsequent runs):
   • shape [{run:<iso-date>, topic:<cluster>, old:V<n>, new:V<m>}, ...] — append-only. new field admits sentinel archive is archived-terminus marker per archive-sibling schema.
   • provenance via git log .claude/spec-renumber-map.json, not in-file run_sha field.

ARCHIVE-RETIRED

Phase fires pre-CLUSTER. Scan §V rows for body opening retired YYYY-MM-DD → flag for migration to SPEC.archive.md ## §V.retired block per archive-sibling schema. Flagged rows not enter cluster taxonomy and not consume new ids @ renumber.

1. Grep ^V[0-9]+:\s+retired\s+[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}\b in SPEC.md §V section → flagged-set (one entry per row body opening retirement-date form).
2. Citer-protection probe every flagged V<n> via cite-resolution invariant cite-DAG:
   • Typed columns: §T.cites and §B.fix bare-form V<n> token match in active SPEC.md (including closed x rows).
   • Free-text contexts: §V.<n> in §V or §C or §I body cells of active SPEC.md.
   • Backtick pre-filter `[^`]*(§[VTB]\.[0-9]+|\b[VTB][0-9]+\b)[^`]*` (rg --pcre2 per tooling-preference invariant) — historical refs in §B/§T narrative columns excluded per verbatim-preservation invariant.
3. exists live citer every any flagged row → bail cannot archive §V.<n> — live citers: <list> and stop. Operator resolves (fold cited content into surviving row or rewrite citer or unflag row by removing retired opener) pre-retry.
4. not live citers → flagged-set passes to PROPOSE (surfaced as ## To archive block in proposal) and EXECUTE (archive write + renumber-map sentinel emission per row).

CLUSTER

LLM judgment over each non-archived §V row body text — assign to topic-coherent cluster. ARCHIVE-RETIRED flagged rows skip cluster assignment because migrated verbatim to archive sibling @ EXECUTE. Two paths:

• Cold-start (not .claude/spec-clusters.json): propose full taxonomy from scratch. Default cluster span is 10 ids per cluster (V<n>..V<n+9> per range), operator-overridable @ PROPOSE.
• Delta (.claude/spec-clusters.json exists): fingerprint-match each current §V row against persist; reassign moved/new rows, retain cluster home every matched fingerprints. Emit delta-set (new rows, moved rows, dropped rows).

Cluster name is short noun phrase, topic-coherent (e.g. spec-mutator-contract, audit-mechanics, release-flow, cite-resolution). Per-row classification is LLM judgment, operator-overridable @ PROPOSE.

PROPOSE

Render cluster diagram in steno register per github-facing-register invariant (audience is operator reviewing proposal). Form: ## <cluster-name> (V<a>..V<b>, <n> rows) H2 per cluster containing per-row line - V<old> → V<new>: <one-line summary>. Trailing summary line: <m> clusters, <total> rows, renumber map writes <k> mappings.

When ARCHIVE-RETIRED flagged-set not empty, additionally render ## To archive H2 block (sibling to cluster H2s) containing per-row line - V<old>: <one-line body summary> per flagged row. Operator sees archive set distinct from cluster set so subset-skip path informed @ CONFIRM.

Operator critiques cluster boundaries, names, row assignments. Iterate until stable (no operator delta requested). Cold-start is entire taxonomy under review; delta-run is only changed rows and new clusters under review.

--taxonomy-only arg → emit PROPOSE report and stop. not CONFIRM, not EXECUTE.

CONFIRM

Emit AskUserQuestion per decision-gate invariant — single bulk-confirm covers renumber + sweep (mid-flow re-prompt not allowed per atomic-operation discipline):

• question: Reorganize SPEC.md: <m> clusters, <k> id renumbers, <a> archive-retired rows, cite-DAG sweep over <s> sites. Apply?
• header: Reorganize gate
• options (3, mutually exclusive, label is action description):
  • apply renumber + cite-DAG sweep + archive-retired → proceed to EXECUTE w/ full proposed map and archive flagged set.
  • subset → operator-typed cluster list or skip archive-retired keyword (e.g. cite-resolution,audit-mechanics; skip archive-retired retains flagged rows in active SPEC.md §V section for current run); re-render PROPOSE w/ filtered set, re-emit CONFIRM.
  • cancel → stop, no mutation.

EXECUTE

Single atomic commit per atomic-operation discipline:

1. Archive-retired migration (when ARCHIVE-RETIRED flagged-set not empty and CONFIRM not skip archive-retired):
   • Append flagged rows verbatim to SPEC.archive.md ## §V.retired block per archive-sibling schema; create block if absent (sibling to ## §T TASKS and ## §B BUGS H2s). Each archived row preserves leading V<orig-n>: prefix and retired YYYY-MM-DD — ... body verbatim per verbatim-preservation invariant. Rows sorted by <orig-n> ascending.
   • Delete archived rows from active SPEC.md §V section.
   • Emit/update SPEC.md §V section archive marker ## archived: §V.retired → SPEC.archive.md (<n> retired rows) directly under §V section heading. not id-range form because retired ids non-contiguous.
   • Per archived V<n>, append renumber-map entry {run:<iso-date>, topic:'retired', old:V<n>, new:'archive'}. Archived rows not consume new id so not paired live-renumber entry.
2. Append renumber entries → .claude/spec-renumber-map.json every surviving non-archived renumbered row (one entry per row, {run:<iso-date>, topic:<cluster>, old:V<n>, new:V<m>}). Append-only — never rewrite prior runs.
3. Rewrite SPEC.md §V section in cluster order over surviving non-archived rows: row body text preserved verbatim per verbatim-preservation invariant, only leading V<n>: prefix renumbered. Archived ids skipped (not live rows post-migrate).
4. Persist taxonomy → .claude/spec-clusters.json (overwrite w/ post-run state); rows keyed by fingerprint, current_id updated to V<new>. Archived rows not persist (terminus in archive sibling, not cluster taxonomy).
5. Cite-DAG sweep per cite-resolution invariant w/ renumber map as input:
   • Target set is PUBLISHED + REPO-LOCAL + SPEC.md internal + SPEC.archive.md (when exists).
   • Backtick pre-filter is `[^`]*(§[VTB]\.[0-9]+|\b[VTB][0-9]+\b)[^`]*` (rg --pcre2 per tooling-preference invariant) — excludes §B/§T narrative historical refs per verbatim-preservation invariant.
   • every surviving cite §V.<old> or bare V<old> in typed column → substitute §V.<new> or V<new> per context (live-renumber entries).
   • Archive-sentinel entries (new:'archive') not trigger substitution — citer-protection gate @ ARCHIVE-RETIRED already excluded live citers so sweep encounters no live cite to flagged ids.
   • §T.cites and §B.fix typed columns contain bare-form tokens — substitute in-place.
6. Idempotent .claude/.gitignore probe — both .claude/spec-clusters.json and .claude/spec-renumber-map.json not in gitignore (git-tracked per scope-set invariant); not guard add.
7. git add SPEC.md SPEC.archive.md .claude/spec-clusters.json .claude/spec-renumber-map.json + touched cite-sweep sites (SPEC.archive.md staged when archive-retired fired or pre-existing); auto-commit msg reorganize SPEC.md §V: <m> clusters, <k> renumbers, <a> archive-retired; not user prompt for commit step.

EXECUTE ends @ commit. Rollback is git revert <reorganize-sha> per single-commit shape. Drift cascade surfaces as Next-block item per response-shape invariant — operator dispatches next turn.

CHAIN-WALK SEMANTICS

.claude/spec-renumber-map.json is append-only history of all runs. Stacked runs admit duplicate old: keys: run-1 entry {old:V<a>, new:V<b>}, run-2 entry {old:V<b>, new:V<c>} → historical-id V<a> resolves via newest-first walk V<a> → V<b> → V<c> (terminating when not further old:V<n> match for current target).

Sentinel archive in new field is archived-terminus marker per archive-sibling schema — chain-walk lookup landing on archive sentinel emits archived → SPEC.archive.md ## §V.retired V<n> and not resolves to live row. Distinct terminus from "no further mapping" (current live id) so consumers distinguish active rename chain from archive migration.

Chain-walk consumers is reorganize itself (re-running w/ persisted map containing prior entries) and explain skill LOAD (historical-id resolution against current SPEC.md). Both walk newest-first per persisted-map ordering — read-only consumption preserves cite-resolution invariant.

OUTPUT — "Next" block

Heading ## Next; 1–5 atomic items (one sentence each, not Reply prefix); positional dispatch (run <int> or run /<plugin>:<cmd> [args]). Optional ## Hint (≤ 3 lines) precedes when item selection needs hidden state. reorganize is state-mutator so post-EXECUTE prefer follow-up /sdd:check (confirm cite-DAG and format-layer clean post-renumber).

Example after EXECUTE (renumber + cite-DAG sweep applied; commit auto-fired):

## Next

1. /sdd:check — cascade scan over reorganized SPEC.md
2. /sdd:build --next — start the next pending §T row
3. git revert <reorganize-sha> — rollback if renumber breaks downstream

Variants: --taxonomy-only exit (not commit) → swap item 1 for /sdd:reorganize (apply for real) and drop item 3; CONFIRM cancel → swap item 1 for /sdd:reorganize --taxonomy-only (re-propose w/ filter) and drop item 3.

NON-GOALS

• not auto-fire — operator-triggered only per recipe-step-no-dispatch rule.
• not partial commit — single atomic commit per atomic-operation discipline.
• not token reduction — clarity-shape pass only; token reduction routes through /sdd:compact.
• not row folds — reorganize preserves row body content (collapse N rows into one belongs to /sdd:compact prong 1). ARCHIVE-RETIRED migrates retired rows verbatim to archive sibling so row count drops, body content not collapsed.
• not cadence enforcement in /sdd:check — skill body documents intent only.
• not hardcoded plugin dir names — discovery probe drives PUBLISHED scope per plugin-name-vs-dir invariant.
