Claude finished @jwaldrip's task in 3m 13s —— View job PR #137 Review: H·AI·K·U Rebrand SpecTasks
Overall AssessmentThis is a well-structured spec for a significant architectural rethink. The core ideas — studio/stage domain abstraction, persistence decoupling, dissolving the elaborate/execute split — are sound and the unit decomposition is logical. However, there are several internal inconsistencies across spec documents that need resolution before execution begins, plus a handful of design concerns worth discussing. Critical: Inconsistencies That Will Block Execution1. STAGE.md schema divergence between
|
| Location | Default |
|---|---|
architecture-spec.md line 335 |
software |
unit-03 |
ideation |
unit-04 STUDIO.md schema example |
ideation |
intent.md |
ideation |
Every agent executing these units will make a different assumption. Pick one and update all references. The ideation default makes more sense semantically (domain-agnostic out of the box), but it needs to be stated explicitly everywhere.
3. architecture-spec.md still uses .ai-dlc/ paths throughout
The spec references .ai-dlc/settings.yml, .ai-dlc/knowledge/, .ai-dlc/studios/ (lines 88, 91, 412–421). Since this is an artifact captured mid-session and unit-01 through unit-03 handle the rename, this may be intentional, but it creates confusion for any agent reading the spec as canonical. Add a header note: "This spec uses old .ai-dlc/ paths — all actual implementation uses .haiku/."
Important: Design Issues
4. Hat layering model vs. inline model still coexists in architecture-spec.md
The Execution Model section of architecture-spec.md (lines 285–295) shows hats reading from plugin/hats/*.md as Layer 1, with STAGE.md as Layer 2. But unit-05 and unit-07 establish that hats have no separate files at all — the instructions live entirely in STAGE.md. The spec's hat layering table is a dead model. Any agent reading architecture-spec.md for implementation will be confused.
5. pass.sh guard variable listed in unit-01 but likely already removed
Unit-01 line 123 includes pass.sh → _DLC_PASS_SOURCED → _HKU_PASS_SOURCED. But discovery.md notes that plugin/passes/ was already renamed to plugin/stages/ during this session, so pass.sh would have become stage.sh. If pass.sh no longer exists, the rename is a no-op; if it does still exist, it should be listed in unit-01's Domain Entities (it's not). Verify which state the codebase is in.
6. _persistence_dispatch sources adapters on every operation call
Unit-08 line 98: source "$adapter_file" inside _persistence_dispatch(). Bash source re-runs the entire file on each call. For a dispatch that fires on every git add/commit, this is unnecessary overhead and could cause side effects if the adapter file has initialization code. Use a guard variable:
_HKU_ADAPTER_SOURCED=""
_persistence_dispatch() {
local operation="$1"; shift
local adapter_type; adapter_type=$(_persistence_get_adapter_type)
local adapter_file="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/lib/adapters/${adapter_type}.sh"
if [[ "$_HKU_ADAPTER_SOURCED" != "$adapter_type" ]]; then
source "$adapter_file" || return 1
_HKU_ADAPTER_SOURCED="$adapter_type"
fi
"_persistence_${adapter_type}_${operation}" "$@"
}7. /haiku:autopilot bypassing external review gates is dangerous
Unit-06 line 72–74: autopilot overrides ALL review gates to auto including external. The external gate is explicitly the "go/no-go" decision boundary (product) and the security review. Bypassing either in autopilot mode silently ships unreviewed security changes. Consider making external gates non-overridable by default, or requiring an explicit --override-external flag.
8. Missing intent directory migration in unit-03
Unit-03 migrates .ai-dlc/settings.yml, .ai-dlc/providers/, and .ai-dlc/knowledge/ — but not .ai-dlc/{slug}/ intent directories. Existing active intents live there. Either unit-03 should include intent directory migration, or a new unit is needed. This is the most user-impacting piece of the migration and the migration guide (unit-11) even mentions it ("Active intents with .ai-dlc/ paths are auto-detected and migrated") but that mechanism is never specified.
9. Missing dependencies in the unit DAG
- unit-07 depends on
[unit-05, unit-06]— but the hook rewiring in unit-07 callshku_*functions from unit-01. Should also depend onunit-01-lib-hooks-rename. - unit-08 depends on
[unit-06]— but callshku_get_active_studio()andhku_resolve_studio()from unit-04. Should also depend onunit-04-studio-infrastructure.
10. Local machine paths in unit-09 and unit-12
Unit-09 and unit-12 reference /Volumes/dev/src/github.com/thebushidocollective/haiku-method/ — a local Mac path that won't exist in any CI environment or on another developer's machine. These units are unexecutable as written. They need to specify how an agent accesses this content: is haiku-method a public repo to clone? Should the content be copied into this repo as part of this PR? Should the path be configurable via an environment variable?
Minor Issues
11. Terminology flip: "single/multi-stage" vs "continuous/discrete"
architecture-spec.md's FSM section (lines 234–282) uses "single-stage mode" and "multi-stage mode." intent.md, discovery.md, and unit-06 all use "continuous" and "discrete." These are different framings of the same concept but the names are not equivalent (single-stage ≠ continuous). The spec should use one vocabulary consistently. The "continuous/discrete" framing from intent.md is cleaner since it describes the interaction model, not the internal implementation.
12. architecture-spec.md line 31 references wrong artifact name
See `ai-dlc-architecture-v2.html` for the full interactive visualization.The actual visualization is architecture-viz.html in this PR. The old reference to a local Downloads file is stale. Fix this →
13. hat.sh missing from unit-01 Domain Entities
Unit-01 renames hat.sh's guard variable _DLC_HAT_SOURCED → _HKU_HAT_SOURCED in the rename table (line 118) but hat.sh is not listed in the Domain Entities section at the top of unit-01. This is just an omission in the spec but could cause an agent to miss the file.
14. resolve-design-ref.sh and run-visual-comparison.sh in unit-01
These are software-specific visual comparison functions (screenshot capture, Playwright, design diff). They're being renamed to hku_* in unit-01, but they conceptually belong to the design stage of the software studio. Worth noting whether they survive the studio refactor or get dissolved into the software studio's design STAGE.md guidance. Not blocking, but worth tracking.
What's Well-Specified
- The requires/produces artifact chain across software studio stages is internally consistent (inception → design → product → development → operations → security all form a valid pipeline).
- Unit boundaries are well-drawn — mechanical rebrand (01-03), architecture (04-08), deploy/docs (09-12) sequence makes sense and avoids cross-unit conflicts.
- Unit-07's backward compatibility note (
.haiku/hats/as fallback) is a good safety valve for the transition period. - The
hku_migrate_settings()function spec in unit-03 is detailed and handles the backward compat symlink correctly. - The persistence interface in unit-08 is clean — five well-named operations with clear semantics for each adapter.

@claude Regarding your last review and designed decision. I think we should allow for multiple options on each stage for example for the product stage right now is listed as external, but we would actually do external, ask both would be available and since ask can be overridden by auto pilot that would allow that to pass through that also supports the existing workflow of AI DLC, which effectively skips into the execute phase |

The unit-07 issue is particularly notable: the completion criterion on line 189 (hku_extract_hat_section function exists) is unmet because the implementation took a different approach (file-based) that made the function unnecessary. The unit should be updated to reflect what was actually built.
Minor Issue
sync-check.md line 5 still reads "After modifying plugin/skills/ or plugin/hats/:" — the plugin/hats/ directory no longer exists. Hats are now per-stage under plugin/studios/{studio}/stages/{stage}/hats/. This makes the sync-check rule misleading.

plugin/lib/hat.sh:hku_resolve_hat_instructions() has no inline STAGE.md code path — it resolves exclusively from {stage_dir}/hats/{hat_name}.md. If a hat file doesn't exist, the function returns empty string silently.
Decision required: These need to be brought into sync before merge. Two options:
Option A — Update docs to match implementation (file-based hats):
- Update CLAUDE.md lines 20, 51, 52, 70, 71, 82 to describe the
hats/*.mdmodel - Update
.ai-dlc/haiku-rebrand/architecture-spec.mdline 314 - Update
.ai-dlc/haiku-rebrand/unit-07-dissolve-hats-workflows.md(entire spec describes inline model + referenceshku_extract_hat_section()which was never implemented)
Option B — Revert implementation to match docs (inline hats):
- Restore inline
## {hat-name}sections in each STAGE.md - Restore inline-parsing logic to
hat.sh - Delete the
hats/subdirectories
Given that 3 hat files already exist for development (builder.md, planner.md, reviewer.md) and the code is fully wired to file-based resolution, Option A is the lower-effort path.
Recurring Working-Tree Issue
.claude/rules/sync-check.md shows M (modified) in the working tree again, reverting to pre-rebrand content for the 10th+ time. The committed HEAD is correct, but something in the session is regenerating old content. Recommend adding a CI step:
- run: git diff --exit-code .claude/rules/sync-check.mdThis will catch any future regressions before they reach review.
All Prior Pass Issues
All 40+ issues from Passes 1–19 remain resolved. No regressions introduced by the three newest commits.
Summary

Summary: All prior blockers resolved except the hat architecture documentation divergence. The 20+ stale "hats are inline in STAGE.md" references need to be updated across CLAUDE.md, sync-check.md, architecture-spec.md, unit-07 spec, and 5 website content files before this PR can merge.
…, not inline
Both files described hats as "inline in STAGE.md" with "no standalone hat files."
The implementation uses `stages/{stage}/hats/{hat}.md` files. Updated all references
to reflect the file-based hat architecture: CLAUDE.md sync discipline, key file
locations, concept mapping, terminology table, and hierarchy notes; architecture-spec
file structure diagrams, hat layering table, bolt cycle diagram, sub-skill
parameterization table, custom stage/studio examples, and migration path.

Full PR State AssessmentAfter 22 passes, the PR is now in good shape: Architecture: ✅
Documentation: ✅ (fixed this pass)
Rebrand completeness: ✅
No blocking issues remain. This PR is ready to merge. |
Replace all references to "inline hats in STAGE.md" with the actual
file-based approach: hats live at stages/{stage}/hats/{hat}.md.
- website/content/docs/hats.md: fix description line
- website/content/docs/stages.md: rewrite "Hats Within Stages" section,
update custom stage creation example to show separate hat files
- website/content/docs/migration.md: fix backwards terminology row
(was: "hats now inline in STAGE.md" — the opposite of truth),
fix workflow→studio comparison, fix breaking changes entry
- website/content/docs/concepts.md: fix stage constraints description
- website/content/docs/getting-started.md: fix two inline hat references
- website/content/papers/haiku-method.md: fix Studios as Profiles and
Stage Orchestration sections
- .ai-dlc/haiku-rebrand/unit-07: align spec with file-based implementation
(hku_resolve_hat_instructions reads hat files, not STAGE.md sections;
remove hku_extract_hat_section criterion that was never implemented)

Claude finished @jwaldrip's task in 5m 37s —— View job Pass 23 Code Review — H·AI·K·U Rebrand PR #137The most recent batch of commits ( 🔴 Bug: Unresolved merge conflict markers in user-facing docs
Both sides are correct — the only difference is "files in" vs "separate files at". This needs to be resolved to either version (or a combined phrasing). As-is, the conflict markers will render verbatim on the website.
🔴 Bug: MCP server name is
|
| File | Current name |
|---|---|
plugin/cli/package.json |
@ai-dlc/cli, bin ai-dlc-dashboard |
plugin/shared/package.json |
@ai-dlc/shared |
plugin/mcp-server/package.json |
@ai-dlc/mcp-server |
These are private/workspace packages so the npm scope doesn't affect published package resolution today, but:
- The
ai-dlc-dashboardbin name would appear inPATHafter install - The workspace cross-references (
"@ai-dlc/shared": "workspace:*") need to match consistently
If these packages are private/internal-only, the scope can stay @ai-dlc as a deliberate choice — but it should be a choice, not an oversight. Please confirm intent.

Summary
Two definite bugs to fix before merge: the unresolved conflict markers in concepts.md (website-breaking) and the ai-dlc-review vs haiku-review MCP server name mismatch (feature-breaking for the dashboard). The unit-07 conflict resolution is cleanup but doesn't affect runtime. The @ai-dlc package scope needs a deliberate answer.

Problem
AI-DLC is a software development lifecycle tool hardcoded to three disciplines (design, product, dev) with a monolithic elaboration skill. It separates "elaboration" and "execution" as distinct commands, can't support custom lifecycles, and assumes git as the only persistence mechanism.
Solution
Rebrand to H·AI·K·U (Human AI Knowledge Unification) and implement a studio/stage/persistence architecture that makes the system domain-agnostic.
